Su Mo is naturally no exception. LPL even sent Luo Xin to interview Su Mo and let him express his views.
Su Mo naturally chose to support LPL. The current situation is quite special and LPL needs more support and encouragement.
will be carried by the young people of the #LPL.
Even some fans of TES and JDG began to discuss which champion skin to choose, and they started arguing because of this issue.
After two days of rest, the group stage of the main stage begins!
Because it is held in the LPL, one of the teams in the opening match must be an LPL team. This is the unspoken rule in all previous S games.
So the official chose to let EDG play the opening game. After all, EDG is the most popular.
As for the opponent, naturally it cannot be too strong. EDG will face T!
After the opening game was confirmed, Su Mo also received a message from Bjergsen:
"Mo, you won't suddenly jump out in the opening game, then we won't be so cruel."
Su Mo: "Of course not, I have retired."
Bjergo, it’s a pity that I couldn’t play against you. I wish you a happy life. "
Su Mo: "Thank you."
Su Mo hasn't seen Bjergsen for a while. T's performance in the past two years was not very good, and he couldn't even go to the World Championships.
This time, judging from the group situation, T is still difficult, and it is difficult to have a chance to qualify.
Time comes in the afternoon and the game begins!
Su Mo didn't have time to watch the game, so he could only wait to see the result.
It was evening. Su Mo got off work and took a look at his cell phone.
#EDG won the first battle!
#JDG wins DWG!
#是热, GEN vs. EDG
There are seven games on the first day. It seems that four games have been played, and there are three more games, which are expected to be played very late.
Su Mo clicked on the competition comments of JDG and DWG and took a look.
"Is this the No. 1 seed in the LCK? Hahaha, it's vulnerable."
"I thought the LCK was so powerful this year, but in the end, even JDG couldn't beat it."
"Brothers, Taobo has been stable this year, maybe JDG will play TES in the final."
"It makes sense to meet in the final!"
Su Mo is not surprised, BO1 is more likely.
Furthermore, the gap between the two leading teams in the LCK and LPL divisions is not very large, and it is not to the point where they cannot win a game.
Su Mo entered the live broadcast room of EDG and GEN again and took a look, wanting to see what EDG's strength is now.
At this time, players from both sides have appeared and BP is in progress.
The lens gives the factory director a visible pressure.
In this game, GEN got the jungler Leopard and the mid laner Tsar.
In the LCK, BDD's czar proficiency is at the same level as Faker.
There is some debate as to which of the two is more proficient, but they are all one level above the others.
In this game, Scout got Clockwork. Currently Clockwork is a T0-level mid laner, so he is not at a disadvantage in terms of heroes.
Enter the game screen, Su Mo took a look at Jiejie's jungle route, which was obviously preparing to quickly catch Rascal on the road.
On the top lane, Aodi is also looking for opportunities to exchange blood, but the crocodile's early push line cannot push Thunder Roar. After the opponent's passive stack is full, the crocodile can't beat the duel, so it can only choose to release the line.
There seems to be no problem, the troop line is controlled, and it is easier to gank in the jungle.
Generally speaking, it takes about three minutes for the top laner to defend against the first wave of GANK.
Jiejie chose level two and went to the top lane to gank, which was faster than Su Mo imagined.
"This doesn't seem to work." Su Mo felt something was wrong, because the crocodile did not replace Thunder Roar with much health, and the crocodile only had two levels, so it was difficult to kill the opponent.
Sure enough, just as Su Mo thought, the accident happened.
Rascal really didn't expect to be ganked by two levels, so he handed over the flash immediately and ran back.
Crocodile flashes W...but this is not Red Fury W. The damage is not high and the control time is also very short.
Jiejie used the red BUFF to pursue forward until he reached the front of the defense tower. Seeing the roar of thunder and still a trace of blood left, Jiejie seemed a little anxious and entered the defense tower.
In the end, he was killed by the defense tower, and the people were not replaced.
"The jungle exploded." Su Mo knew that he was in trouble at a glance. This was not a problem of the top lane collapsing, although the commentary and barrage were saying that the top lane exploded.
Actually, the top lane is fine, but the real explosion is in the wild area.
Jiejie came back and wanted to clear the semi-wild area. Leopard Girl invaded on time, ambushed in advance, drove Jiejie away, counter-wilded, and could go up the road and jump over the tower.
The barrage in the live broadcast room instantly boiled:
"No, what kind of plane is EDG Ueno doing?"
"Whose problem is it? Why do I feel that Jiejie has a big problem?"
"It's the crocodile's problem. Why doesn't the crocodile give Red Fury W? Otherwise the opponent will definitely die!"
"Don't say it, but it's rubbish, let's watch TES and JDG."
The game continues. After this wave of play, the disadvantages of the top and jungle are very large.
However, just when everyone thought it would explode all the way, Meiko stepped forward!
Jiejie was not convinced by Leopard Girl in the jungle, so he chose to operate with Leopard Girl.
In terms of pure hero strength, Lilia is not inferior to Leopard Girl, because Lilia moves very fast, and with proper operation, she can dodge Leopard Girl's Q skill and pull her to hit her.
The two were fighting, and suddenly, Meiko appeared, catching Clid off guard and helping to get first blood.
The jungle area has taken a breather, but the top lane has completely exploded.
Level 6 Thunder Roar jumps over the tower and kills the crocodile alone. There is nothing the crocodile can do.
Wait until the CD of the next big move is changed, and Thunder Roar continues to kill alone!
Two consecutive solo kills!
The barrages in the live broadcast room are boiling again:
"When has our EDG top laner ever suffered such a loss?"
"No, in the past when Brother Mozi was here, did the opponent's top laner dare to be arrogant?"
"I can't stand it anymore, I left. This game makes me sick."
"Brother Mozi's reputation has been ruined by these rubbish!"
Just when EDG fans were falling into despair, eiko stepped forward. The two of them drove the rhythm crazily and provided sufficient output in team battles.
BDD's Czar is not as good as Scout's Clockwork.
With the efforts of the two, EDG slowly caught up with the economy, and the team battles also went back and forth.
The commentator also sees hope.
However, Su Mo was not so optimistic.
From a lineup perspective, GEN's lineup is much stronger than EDG in late-stage combat. If the Economist draws a draw, EDG will be unable to beat it the further it plays.
After knowing what was going on, Su Mo chose to turn off the live broadcast and go to eat first.
After eating, I took a look and it was true.
#EDG unfortunately lost
#GEN won with difficulty against EDG
#EDG was killed consecutively on the road
Today’s editors are quite good at making headlines, deliberately saying it is "EDG on the road" but not saying who it is.
It is endlessly reminiscent.
After the end of the first day of the game, LPL's record of three wins and one loss looked pretty good.
The LCK also has three wins and one loss.
At present, the two divisions have never lost against other divisions except each other.
On the other side, in the EDG training base, Abramovich is leading the EDG team to review today's game.
After the review of the two games, Abu looked at the factory director and said, "Mingkai, you make the arrangements."
The factory manager had a serious expression on his face and glanced at the whole place. Everyone else was a little weak, especially Aodi.
The factory director said: "Judging from today's game situation and the training matches in the past half month, if we want to advance, we must win against FNC. It is more difficult to win against GEN."
Scout suddenly said: "There is a chance, GEN is not as strong as expected, they are only the third seed in LCK."
The director, as a coach, his current position is different from before.
As players, especially those who are strong and have won championships, they often overestimate the strength of their team. Of course, this overestimation is often done to boost morale or due to personal emotions.
As a coach, you must be objective and rational.
"The chance is very slim, we can't bet all our money on it. FNC is relatively easier to deal with, and we should focus on goals that are easier to achieve. Therefore, tomorrow's game with FNC is the most important game, so prepare for it."
The factory director's attitude is very tough.
Eiko stood up and smoothed things over: "Everyone wants to win the game, and our goals are the same. But now we should be down-to-earth, step by step, and consider promotion first."
Therefore, everyone in EDG continued to train and prepare for tomorrow's game with FNC.
The next day, the second match day of the group stage.
Su Mo went to work as usual and waited until after get off work to watch the results of the game.
The last game today is against EDG and FNC, and Su Mo can catch up just in time.
However, he is not optimistic. FNC is not weak now. If EDG wants to win against them, they must be ahead in BP and tactics.
It was evening. After get off work, Su Mo glanced at the notifications on his phone.
#G2 defeated SN
#DWG easily defeated RGE
#GEN easily won T
Finally, it was EDG versus FNC, which is probably still playing or about to start.
Su Mo was about to enter the live broadcast room when he suddenly received a message from Meiko:
"Brother Mo Zi, I don’t know if you are off work or not. We are about to go on stage. I hope to get your blessing!"
Meiko also sent a cute emoticon.
Su Mo responded: "Come on, EDG! Come on, Ye Tianye."
This game is indeed very important for EDG. If they cannot beat GEN, they can only break through from FCN if they want to advance.
However, the most outrageous thing happened.
Su Mo just finished sending messages to Tian Ye.
I received another message from Rekkles:
"Bless our FNC to win, player Mo, I am your loyal fan."
Su Mo smiled. Fortunately, he was not a true god, and what he said had no effect, otherwise it would be really difficult to handle.
Su Mo came to a restaurant and watched while eating.
Just as the BP of both parties ended, they entered the game screen.
EDG's tactics are completely different this time.
Jiejie got Kindred and chose Ornn in the top lane.
Let the jungler come to Kairi and the top laner just be a bastard.
In the middle, Scout directly took out Ike.
Although Clockwork is the mid laner in version T0, this hero needs to look at the faces of his teammates and is not very proactive.
Ike is different. Ike's rhythmic ability is much better than that of Clockwork.
Entering the game screen, EDG had a good early rhythm in this game. Although it was still at a disadvantage on the top lane, a tower was demolished very early.
But Ornn is different from Crocodile. Ornn has hope in the later stage, and his disadvantage is acceptable.
Crocodile becomes a super soldier due to its disadvantage.
EDG did much better in BP this time than before.
The two sides come and go, each has its own victory or defeat, and the economic gap has always been maintained at about one thousand.
Looking at the situation, it is similar to the previous game against GEN, but if the lineup is comprehensive, this game has much hope.
After all, Ornn is on the top lane and Kindred is the jungler. They are both big brothers in the late game.
As expected, a wave of dragon teamfights broke out in more than thirty minutes. EDG seized the opportunity and fought a perfect teamfight.
The strength of the lineup can be reflected at this point in time. FNC is no match at all and was wiped out by EDG.
EDG directly ended the game with a wave from the middle.
As a result, EDG's record came to 2-1, which is already very good.
Soon, Su Mo received another message from Meiko:
"Brother Mo Zi, I love you! Thank you for your blessing!"
Su Mo: "It's you who performed well, keep working hard."
Soon, Su Mo received another message from Rekkles:
"Mo, although we lost today's game, we will make a comeback, continue to bless us."
At the end of today's game, LPL got two wins and one loss.
The LCK has two wins and zero losses.
Public opinion on the Internet is also quite optimistic:
"EDG feels okay, as long as the Audi on the road can be a gangster."
"That's right, what about playing crocodile, playing Ornn, isn't it okay to just mess around?"
“EDG finally knows the winning password, come on.”
"EDG can advance even with the fourth seed, LPL is too strong this year."
Su Mo is not so optimistic. If there is only one way to win, sooner or later someone will find a weakness.
The next day, the third match day of the group stage, there was no EDG game today, so Su Mo didn't pay much attention.
He chose to wait until the end of the game to see the results directly.
#SN defeated TL easily
#DWG easily won PSG
#JDG's three-game winning streak exploded
# is currently broadcasting TES VS DRX!
Here it comes! The battle for focus.
The showdown between the LPL No. 1 seed and the LCK No. 2 seed.
It happened to be the last game of the day, and Su Mo caught up.
Before the game officially started, Su Mo went straight to the restaurant to eat.
On the way, Su Mo received a message from Chovy:
"Player Mo, do you think we have a high chance of winning DRX?"
Su Mo: "Strength It depends on the lineup and performance.”
Chovy: “Okay, I will work hard.”
Su Mo feels that Chovy’s personality is quite easy to get along with, he is very honest and unassuming.
Su Mo entered the live broadcast room and took a look. Miller and Wawa were still commentators today. After all, it was the focus of the battle.
The BP started, and the director gave close-ups of the players and coaches of both teams.
At this time, the left hand looks energetic and confident.
As for Jackeylove, in addition to being confident, he is also more arrogant.
I feel that TES has a chance to win this game.
On the other side, as for DRX, Chovy showed no expression, with a cold face.
People who are not familiar with him probably think he is some cold and aloof male god.
Of course Su Mo knew that he was an introverted boy.
And Deft always gives people an honest and humble feeling.
This time DRX got the card directly on the first floor.
The commentators and the audience were a little surprised. After all, in their impression, Chovy mainly focused on laning and had strong laning ability, but Kao was not a laning hero.
Su Mo is not surprised, because in this version the strong players in the middle are all traditional mages. Chovy's traditional mage cannot play well. If he chooses a traditional mage to fight with his left hand in the middle.
Him must be the one who suffers in the end.
Hence, it is very wise to choose cards, which depends on the ability of Kerry in the top and bottom lanes.
Of course, it also depends on how TES responds.
Suddenly, TES got a hero on the fourth floor that no one expected, Nightmare!
