Alliance: Beat Khan at the start

Chapter 173 True Death Group

Amidst the surprise, the penultimate day of the S9 Global Finals group match finally came to an end.

In addition to GRF's undisputed first promotion in the group, the second one to qualify was FNC, which defeated RNG for two consecutive games. The C group game ended like this.

But what followed was Group D on the last day of the group stage.

It is necessary to know that this group can be said to be the real group of death, and it is also the group that fights the hardest.

After the first round of the group stage, the ranking of Group D is very interesting. ID, DWG and TL are all tied for first place with a record of 2/1.

This also means that in the next last day, every game in the three groups is crucial.

The three teams of IG, DWG and TL can all be regarded as strong teams, but soon they will decide the winner in one day.

Three into two, that is, a two-thirds chance.

But in the end, no one can be sure which two teams will successfully enter the quarterfinals.

Needless to say, IG, as last year's world champions, this year they still came to the world stage again with last year's champion lineup.

Although there are some bumps in the process, judging from the current performance, they still have a great chance of advancing.

The same is true for DWG. As the No. [-] seed in the LCK division, even though Lin Canyu and the others beat them up in China, their performance in the World Championship is still remarkable.

TL
The North American Lobby is really not just talk.

As the only No. [-] seed in the four major regions that has not yet advanced, they are already a little weak now, as can be seen from their previous games.

At this time, the other two teams in the LCS, C9 and CG, have been eliminated, so TL is the last hope for North America.

The paper strength of the three teams is actually quite close, even if there is a slight gap, it is within a very small range.

Therefore, the competition for qualifying places in Group D will become the most intense group.

Soon the last day of the group stage came. At this time, almost all the spectators who were paying attention to this World Championship gathered at the scene or before the live broadcast.

With much anticipation, the last day of the group stage of the S9 World Championship began.

The first matchup will be our IG team and AHQ team.

AHQ, which had kneeled three times in a row before, lived up to expectations and lost the game again after facing IG, achieving a four-game losing streak.

The winning IG finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting their third point.

At this time, AHQ, which has achieved a four-game losing streak, has also been determined to have lost its qualification to enter the subsequent quarter-finals ahead of schedule.

In the second round, LCK's No. [-] seed DWG will face LCS' No. [-] seed TL.

But today's TL didn't have the momentum of the first day of the group stage, and lost to DWG very simply, which also put TL into an embarrassing situation at this time.

As long as they lose another game in the future, they will basically miss the quarterfinals.

In the third game that followed, TL finally regained a little bit of confidence in AHQ, which had completely given up, and successfully got a very crucial point from them.

If the first three games were all small fights, then the fourth game between IG and DWG is the biggest focus of today.

Both of them occupy the top spot with a record of 3/1 at this time. As long as either side wins this round, they can determine their qualifications for promotion in advance.

"Chanwoo, who do you think will win?" Viper asked.

"I think it's DWG," Lin Canyu and the others were watching the game together in the training room of the base, the coach asked.

"Why? Didn't DWG be beaten by us casually in China?"

Viper is still too young and always sees things so superficially.

"You'll know when you look back."

Lin Canyu didn't say much. He just knew what the outcome would be, so there was no need to pretend.

But before the game, almost most people, like Viper, believed that IG would win this game. Even LCK netizens felt this way.

Because IG is the champion team of last year anyway, and the players are also the ones who won the championship. Especially before the start of the game, the IG official announced that Ning, the former champion jungler FMVP winner, will start and return to the game.

Most of the previous IG games were played by their newly discovered young jungler Leyan, but his performance was not satisfactory, so at this critical time, IG chose to replace Ning again.

But can Ning's appearance really bring victory to IG?
The answer is of course. No!
Ning's appearance has indeed brought a lot of good changes to IG. For example, their style is a little bit like last year, But!

Reckless is reckless enough, but the opponent is not bad.

Judging from the superficial situation of the two teams, IG's top laner Theshy and DWG's top laner Nuguri are both top laners in this world championship.

Theshy is certainly strong, but Nuguri is also worthy of the current him.

The other positions are even more similar, except that Nuclear in the bottom lane is a bit less interesting than Ah Shui in people's eyes, the other positions are not bad at all.

Even Nuclear can be regarded as an experienced player. Even if he is not so Kerry, he can still mix.

In particular, the styles of the two teams are very similar, and they both focus on the middle and upper fields, so this collision between the two teams is also something everyone is looking forward to, especially Theshy and Nuguri on the road.

If there is no Lin Canyu, then Nuguri is the well-deserved top rookie king of LCK this year, but it is a pity that he has met Lin Canyu's big match, and he has no choice but to be beaten.

But that doesn't mean he's weak.

Before the game started, the popularity of the major live broadcast rooms had already reached a terrifying number. The number of real viewers on the external live broadcast platform that Lin Canyu watched had already exceeded 30.

Don't think that this is a small number. This is not a live broadcast platform such as Yuyu and Yaya in China. It is just like the real thing with millions of popularity.

Especially now that the number of viewers is still rising, it is estimated that there will be at least 40 people watching online when the show officially starts.

The top road duel between the two sides attracted everyone's attention, and the two teams did not disappoint the audience. They chose Jess and Vampire to fight against each other.

Needless to say, Theshy's Jess, Nuguri's vampires don't take a lot, but it's acceptable.

However, IG's bot lane was beyond everyone's expectations. Ah Shui took a Syndra to cooperate with Baolan's Titan to face Kashaga Shuguang on the opposite side of the line.

This also made everyone talk about whether there will be a lack of damage in the later stage because there is no AD?
But just looking at the lineup, there is actually not much difference between the two sides. In the final analysis, it depends on their respective operations. As long as the operations are in place, everything is easy to say.

And didn’t IG’s key top road point get a strong hero in the lane?
As long as Theshy's Jace develops in the early stage, IG's early and mid-term team battles will still be easy to fight.
