Chapter 142 Unprecedented! Advance to the quarterfinals! Everyone cheered and called for Li Jiahang to explain!
There is constant controversy outside.

On the stage, the Riot girl smiled and offered congratulations, and then asked in a serious tone: "GodYi, there has been a lot of controversy about the way you made a 'weak' gesture to Faker after the game. Regarding this issue, do you have any inside information you want to respond to the outside world?"

This is not an issue that needs to be avoided. On the contrary, T1 fans around the world are waiting for a public "apology."

"Apologize!"

"Apologize!!"

"Xibaer, apologize to Faker!"

In the audience, LCK fans wearing T1 uniforms shouted in unison, trying to force them into submission.

Lu Yi disagreed, and Little Bear spread his hands and said:

"I always adhere to the principle of being a man of taking revenge with pleasure. I strike hard at my enemies and treat my friends with courtesy. Failure is not scary. What is scary is when someone fails and then talks to me confidently about a bug in the game. If he stops the game and applies for 'time travel', we should be the losers."

"For a player who can't afford to lose, I don't think there's anything wrong with doing this. On the contrary, in the subsequent knockout rounds, if we meet T1 in the semi-finals, I will definitely increase my efforts. Of course, the premise is that they are qualified to reach the semi-finals!"

Wow! ! !
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene. LCK fans couldn't believe it and asked questions one after another. When the Top Esports fans heard this, the temperature also rose immediately. For a moment, the scene was filled with noise and it became even louder and louder!

The commentators on the post-match judges' panel in the LPL official live broadcast room all changed their expressions at this moment.

It was inevitable that showing weakness to the opponent for no apparent reason would lead to widespread criticism, but now everyone was uneasy after hearing the inside story revealed by the No. 1 mid laner in their own division.

"It turns out that you can't afford to lose."

"I told you, GodYi never bothers to actively hype himself up to gain traffic. After all, he doesn't need to do that given his popularity."

"To be honest, if I hadn't replayed it at a slow speed, I would have subconsciously thought that there was a bug in the Graves that caused the displacement of the rebound to not be triggered. But in fact, it was GodYi who seized the operating space that would have been missed in the blink of an eye. This wave of post-match was so weak. GodYi is fine!"

"Faker has a narrow mindset."

[Is Han Xiaozi still calling? 】

[Your father can't afford to lose, yet he still shows his filial piety to Faker! ]

[Lord Yi will fight anyone who disobeys him, and will avenge any grudges. I wanted to laugh when I heard the Korean filial sons talking about the house collapse theory. Who has ever seen a house collapse in a ruin? ]

[Classic BUG stopped, time goes back, to be honest, T1 has already respected us a lot, after all, they are a three-time champion dynasty, there is no need to be too strict with us, they did not unplug the network cable to request a rematch after being wiped out in front of the last base, which is already a great favor to us, okay? ]

[My thirty-meter-long sword has been chopped down, and the friendly troops will be buried with honor! ]

[A bunch of filial sons, is Yi÷ your father? Whatever he says is what it is. There is no cost to spread rumors, right? ]

[This made me laugh. A legend who has won three world championships, does he need to care about you, Yi÷, who just came to the world championship and has never won any honors? When Faker won the world championship, you, Yi÷, were still in kindergarten! ]

[It's funny, Han Za would rather suspect the rumor than suspect his Korean father. ]

[If you don't have any evidence, how dare you say that in front of the global audience? Has Han Xiaozi's brain been kicked by a donkey? ]

【…】

……

on the stage.

Hearing this, even the two hosts on the same stage were stunned. Seeing that the atmosphere on the scene had reached its peak, the Riot host did not discuss this topic too much and continued to ask:

"Then I would like to ask GodYi, who defeated T1 twice in the group stage and led the team to win the two games with absolute advantages against Faker. How do you evaluate this legendary mid laner who has a historic status and influence in the LOL field?"

The entire audience cast their eyes over.

Faced with this question, Lu Yi almost didn't think about it. He picked up the microphone and said confidently:
"Everyone is praising him as a legend, but in fact, in my opinion, he is just the world's number one shockwave."

"As we all know, League of Legends has always been a team game. All the media are madly marketing his triple crown honors. What no one has reported is that when he debuted in the past, he joined SKT, one of the dominant teams in the OGN League. Before you went there, they were already a powerhouse in the region. In the first season after you went there, the team's performance did not improve but deteriorated. Is this a fact?"

"For a player who has the world's best teammates, coaches, and training resources when he debuted to win the world championship, in my opinion, this is not a big deal."

"Here I have to mention a good friend named Uzi. They have one thing in common, that is, when the team is in a trough, they always think that it is all because their teammates are not strong enough, so they frequently change teammates. They don't think that they are too weak, and they never worry that they will be abandoned by the club for optimization."

"Because of the traffic accumulated in the wild times, such people have commercial value that is seriously inconsistent with their actual strength."

"After removing the beauty filter, my evaluation is, do T1's operations think that the pursuit of four championships is not valuable? No! I think they must think that treating four teammates to a bottle of Coke is more cost-effective if it is labeled as 'good character'."

Yu Shuang widened her eyes and looked in shock at the young man in front of her who was making trouble crazily. After a slight hesitation, she professionally translated Lu Yi's words to the global audience.

The LPL barrage has already been boiling!
All the official commentators fell into deep thought immediately.

I'm in a big trough!
If you think about it carefully, it is true!

People are born to worship the strong. As long as they win the world championship, all the black spots on them will be infinitely reduced. Layers of filters can beautify people into gods. Didn’t you see that SKT in S6 won the unprecedented second consecutive championship? Bang put his hands in his pockets and was too lazy to even touch the championship trophy. Only Faker was as excited as a child...

No one cares who his teammates are, and no one cares how many games his teammates carried. As long as Faker, who is marketed as a "legend", wins the championship, everyone will brag about Faker's three championships. Bang, who also debuted invincible and defended his second consecutive championship, can only become a foil.

Even to S7.

Legend's condition declined seriously, but Bang maintained the level of the world's top AD. His output was explosive in the last game. However, Legend was not to blame for losing the game. Instead, the double champion Bang became the culprit who killed Legend.

After S4, League of Legends became popular all over the world. It was also after that that the professional league officially entered the era where traffic was king. Not only LPL was operating the star-making plan, LCK started marketing their "stars" as early as S5.

【The case has been solved!!】

【Yishen really tore off the filter on Faker. I opened my eyes wide in disbelief. Behind the filter is... the eternal God?!】

[At this moment, I believe what the eternal god once said, he is not weaker than Faker at all! No wonder Faker thinks Uzi is the best ADC in the world. I thought it was just a joke, but now it seems that these two people appreciate each other because they have similar tastes. ]

[You joined the top league champion right after your debut, and everything went smoothly. Little did you know that behind every highlight moment, there were teammates full of honors who silently helped to build the stage. You have never experienced what it feels like to lose because of your teammates. When I debuted, I was displaced all the way. After tossing and turning, I finally became the starting mid laner of Top Esports! ]

[Your team is highly respected, while my team is riddled with holes. You are the champion team of the new season, while I am questioned by the entire network. All your teammates are Cs, while all my teammates are drags. Different situations, same destination. GodYi managed to carry the team to the stage of the World Finals with four flaws, and never lost a single game in the process. What qualifications do you, Faker, have to pretend to be a senior in front of me?]

【What a curse! 】

【The first mouthpiece on the Internet! 】

[Supporting GodYi, isn't Han Xiaozi ashamed? 】

[……] The online comments were already boiling with excitement. Upon hearing this, even the hostess covered her mouth in disbelief. The two sides in the audience were arguing even more. The Koreans were shouting "Xi Baer" like crazy, while Top Esports fans suddenly woke up and shouted at them from a distance at the top of their lungs.

Lu Yi's extremely aggressive remarks caused an uproar in all major competition areas.

Especially the fans of LCK Samsung were the first to stand up and applaud!

Although their home team had also been hit by a wave of map bombardment before, now after seeing their most hated player being stepped on by others, they had to name and humiliate him in public.

Samsung fans were so excited that they were about to orgasm!
Sometimes they themselves don't understand why even their LCK audiences have no feelings towards Faker, but the LPL audiences praise Faker to the sky. These people do not support the all-Chinese team in their own region, but instead praise the team in the rival region all day long. It's amazing.

In the past S7 World Finals, before the game even started, the entire LCK Internet was filled with overwhelming comments about the "Legendary Fourth Championship". As a result, their home team Samsung defeated the Shockwave Dynasty 3:0 in one fell swoop. But after the game, it would have been fine if the filial son on the scene sang a different tune, but the key was that the audience on the LPL side was also shouting "The legend will never die". This disgusting fan culture has made Samsung fans hate it to this day.

They clearly won the game and won the championship, but when it was time to pick the fruits, the whole audience was cheering for their opponents. What kind of game was this?

……

T1.

Everyone has returned to the hotel, and head coach Kou Ma was preparing to review the game for them, but they accidentally clicked on the post-game interview in the official live broadcast room, and after watching it, everyone couldn't stop.

When everyone heard GodYi's final evaluation of Faker, they were all dumbfounded, and when they looked at Faker, their eyes couldn't help but look strange.

These words are well-founded, and even Koma, who has followed Faker all the way, cannot refute them. There are few Koreans in their country, and it is absolutely impossible to expect to make money by selling tickets for the professional league in their small place. It is not easy to be far ahead in the field of e-sports, and that era was a wild period for e-sports competitions, so naturally they had to have all the necessary packaging.

Faker noticed the strange looks from everyone and couldn't help but clench his fists. He was always good at disguising himself but this was the first time he got angry and his face turned red.

"Xi Baer, ​​God Yi!"

"I will defeat you. I will make you pay for your arrogance today with my own hands!!"

……

That night.

Everything that happened on the last day of the group stage was reported crazily by various LPL marketing accounts, so much so that the Weibo hot search list was once again dominated by the scene.

The entire network was discussing the topic between Lu Yi and Faker. His series of crazy remarks during the post-match interview even had an impact that exceeded the popularity of the game itself.

Perhaps the LPL audience has really awakened, so that many Korean filial sons of low purity on the Internet also felt enlightened after Lu Yi proposed the filter theory.

After losing the halo of legend, people felt that the big devil was not so sacred. Of course, Han Xiaozi's crystal body is not small in LPL and it did not fall so easily. T1's Gao Chun Han Za is still supporting his home team.

Under the unanimous urging of netizens from all sides, the League of Legends organizer, who recorded the entire process that night, also released the audio of the two sides shaking hands after the game.

The process was exactly the same as what Lu Yi said in the post-match interview. When LPL netizens heard Faker proudly say "time goes back", they were collectively angry. In an instant, T1's official Weibo was subjected to unprecedented bombardment.

It seemed that they also understood that what Faker said was wrong. Seeing that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, the T1 official Weibo immediately closed the comment function, but this could not curb the anger of the LPL audience.

The Internet was abuzz with criticism of T1.

T1.

Someone started a thread to support his home team.

#Isn't what Faker said true? If a normal person encounters the situation when he flashed with Graves' R in a ranked match, they would probably suspect that the opponent was using a script, right? #
#I think the players in the game can't watch the replay, so it's understandable that they think it's a BUG. #
#It was already confirmed that the opponent had a bug, and it was a crucial teamfight with a huge impact, but Faker didn't call a halt to the game. If he could turn the tables, he would turn the tables. If he couldn't, he would let TES win for free. Isn't this the true demeanor of a master? Is it because of our different nationalities that you are so unscrupulous in smearing Faker? "#
#League of Legends players all over Asia are following Faker. I really don’t understand why LPL is so disgusting!#
#Look at the comments in the LCK games, they are all praising the players for their good performance, it's a peaceful scene. Then look at the comments in our LPL, the quality is worrying, they just take the wind as wind and the rain as rain. Just because of such a negligible sentence, they make a big deal out of it. I think Faker, who didn't apply for time travel, doesn't care, so what on earth are you guys cyberbullying about? #
#Sometimes I even feel ashamed that I live in the same city with you low-quality haters. #
#I really said it, T1 has no shortage of fans. Even if the entire LPL is against T1, I will still stand firmly with Faker forever. #
#Because he is my youth! #
#Don’t reply to the haters, I will delete the bad comments! #
This post comes from a young lady with a sexy avatar.

Perhaps it was because most of the Korean filial sons were horny, and when they saw such a beautiful sister who was not afraid of online violence and openly stood on the side of T1, they also felt a resonance at the time, and felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, and they all began to support T1 passionately in the comment section.

In a short period of time, the post became popular throughout the LPL, and people from all walks of life flocked to it.

[It is hard to imagine that this is something a Chinese person could say.]

[I typed 500 words and was ready to angrily swear at the poster's family tree, but after thinking about it, I decided to delete it all. I'm afraid I'll vomit up my leftovers if I argue with someone like this.]

[I said before that GodYi's post-match comments on you, Faker, were rumors. Now that the voice chat has come out, you, the Korean dad, can't find an excuse to be stubborn because you are a bad player. But in the eyes of Korean Xiaozi, you have become an Asian superstar with a broad mind, right? Oh no, I am so angry. Where are you, Sima, the host of the post? I want to trade my life with yours! ]

[From now on, as long as you don't cancel your account, I will come to visit your whole family's grave as soon as I have time! ]

【…】

The online war of words continues and is very heated.

In the second half of the night, the group stage journey came to an end.

TES, first in Group B, attracted all the attention and advanced to the knockout stage with a perfect record!

EDG, second in Group C, advanced by just one point behind Samsung, but their form in the second half of the group stage was extremely hot!
RNG, second in Group D, also had a difficult first half, but gradually found their touch in the second half and ultimately advanced with only one small point behind HLE.

As for Group A, perhaps DK wanted to maintain the reputation of "undefeated" in the group stage, or perhaps they had the pride of being the defending champions, so they did not take advantage of the loopholes in the rules in the subsequent game against RGE and deliberately lost the crucial BO1 to send FPX home. After RGE was defeated, FPX, which had originally lost all hope, got a precious BO1 play-in match to decide the qualifying spot for the second place in the group.

This made FPX feel like they had grabbed a life-saving straw.

On the second day, under the impact of the surprise of regaining what they had lost, all the FPX members were full of fighting spirit. It took them only 25 minutes to flatten RGE's base crystal, successfully becoming the second seed in Group A and advancing to the knockout stage!
This is the end.

The group stage journey has come to an end.

The four LPL seeds that will go to the World Championship and the four kings of LCK firmly occupy the top eight spots!

As a result, all the world championship teams from the two major regions of Europe and North America were wiped out. This unprecedented spectacle immediately made the LPL audience very happy. Before the draw even started, they had already started a large-scale team building activity online.

[The World Championship was turned into an Asian Championship. This year's LPL has really risen! ]

[In the past LPL, two teams advanced to the quarterfinals, and then both fell. This year, it’s incredible. The Gouchi and the Big Three + One Piece are going together, and the chance of winning the championship is doubled compared to previous years! ]

[Blooming everywhere belongs to yes. 】

[It is recommended that the LPL organizer invite Li Jiahang to commentate on site. This year's S11 LPL will definitely not disappoint you again! ]

[Yes, I strongly suggest that the organizer invite Li Jiahang to be the guest commentator. LPL let you down in S7, but in the knockout rounds of S11, LPL will encircle LCK and settle all accounts! ]
