Chapter 232 The upset continues
Chapter 232 The upset continues
The next two matches of the quarterfinals were held as scheduled.
Although the match between RNG and G2 ended two days ago, the discussion on the Internet is still very heated, resulting in not much attention to the next two games.
The two teams competing on the field were clearly AFS and C9, but the comments in the live broadcast room were all about RNG.
This game had far-reaching impacts. Kwon Jong-hyuk thought that things would calm down after the limelight died down, but as time went by, the storm of public opinion even showed a tendency to intensify.
Even though RNG is very good at public relations, Kwon Jong-hyuk is still helpless in the face of this situation.
He can only place his hopes on EDG now. As long as G2 can successfully defeat EDG in the subsequent games, he will be sure to transfer the anger of netizens to EDG.
In the eyes of most netizens, the match between AFS and C9 also does not have much suspense. The LCK's golden image in the impression of netizens in the group stage has been broken, but what kind of scumbag is C9?
The teams from the European and American regions are still regarded as "loser" in the minds of the audience, so in the eyes of many viewers, AFS undoubtedly has a much greater chance of winning this game.
However, just after the game started, the audience was shocked.
AFS lost the first game at the beginning.
And this game was a crushing one, lasting only 28 minutes, and C9 beat AFS without any room to fight back.
If the first game could be barely explained as an accident, when the second game was over, the Korean audience's sense of luck was gone.
The second game took 29 minutes. Although it was not a crushing victory, C9 still managed to win the game in the end.
2: 0!
In the third game, C9 still won.
3: 0!
The Korean audience was stunned.
After RNG lost to G2 yesterday, they gloated a lot and complained that the LPL region was not strong enough and actually lost to a team like G2.
I didn't expect the slap in the face would come so quickly, AFS lost to C9 right away.
Besides, RNG is only the third seed after all, while AFS is the second seed of LCK. RNG was at least defeated 3:2, while AFS was directly shut out by C93 0:. If we really want to rise to the level of the competition region, it is obvious that their LCK region is even worse.
"China Unicom is awesome!"
After watching these three games, the audience sighed.
Since the C9 team logo is very similar to the China Unicom logo, many netizens call them China Unicom.
"The European and American regions are on the rise!"
First, G2 defeated RNG unexpectedly, and then C9 defeated AFS unexpectedly. Among the four teams in the semi-finals, two seats have been reserved in the European and American regions.
"If FNC upsets KT again tomorrow, I can't even imagine the scene."
……
After these three games, the attacks on RNG became more intense.
C9 is really into it.
In three games, the bottom lane picked Lucian three times in a row and won all three games. This was like stabbing RNG in the heart.
"It turns out it's not Lucian that's not good, it's RNG that's not good!"
"It turns out that Lucian doesn't need four people protecting one!"
"It's not the hero's problem, it's simply the player's problem. Someone is bad at playing and likes to play."
Some even said sarcastically: "Aobama is a former US president, it would be great if he was used by the US team."
C9's victory made G2 feel proud, and G2's Weibo operations team posted crazily again that day.
What are the sayings like "EU and NA are the top regions", "LPL and LCK are garbage", "I hope FNC will beat KT tomorrow and the teams from the European and American regions will meet in the finals"...
the next day.
The match between FNC and KT was held as scheduled.
If it weren't for Shen Lang's influence, FNC's opponent in the quarterfinals should have been EDG, and they also successfully defeated EDG in the quarterfinals and advanced to the semifinals.
Now due to the butterfly effect, their opponent has become the even stronger KT, so Shen Lang is not sure how to predict the final result.
On paper, KT is naturally stronger, but G2 and C9's consecutive upsets made Shen Lang start to look forward to it.
If FNC can still upset KT today, EDG's road to the championship will undoubtedly become smoother.
But it's a pity.
KT still showed strong strength.
In the past, many people thought that KT was weak after seeing IG defeat KT, but in fact, it is not because they are weak, it is simply because IG is strong. They were able to play to the fifth game after IG won the first two games. This shows that KT’s strength is really not bad.
The LCK region may have really fallen into decline, but KT is definitely the last stand in the LCK region.
KT easily won the first game.
Although FNC quickly won the game, they won this game very hard. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the FNC players were in very good condition in this game and there were not many mistakes on the field.
Even with the players' exceptional performance, they were only able to barely beat KT. The strength gap between the two teams can be imagined.
Not every player can maintain their normal performance in every game. In the third game, FNC made a mistake in the bottom lane at the beginning and KT found an opportunity. After finding a breakthrough, KT operated around the bottom lane and quickly snowballed the economy.
Finally, after 34 minutes of fierce battle, KT successfully won the game.
The game came to the deciding set.
At this stage, the players on the disadvantaged side will either perform exceptionally well under high pressure or their operations will be distorted under high pressure.
Obviously, FNC is the latter.
The players in all three lanes were not in very good condition and made more or less mistakes in laning phases, while the support Hylissang performed particularly badly.
Rather than saying he is Hylissang, it would be better to say he is "Hilissong".
He really wanted to find an opportunity, but the results were often unsatisfactory. Not only did he fail to find the opportunity, but he also gave the kill to the opponent.
After death and resurrection, continue to send.
He fought from beginning to end, and people who didn't know him might even think he was fixing the game.
This continued until the end of the game, Hylissang's Minotaur successfully surpassed the ghost, and FNC lost the final game. Their journey in this world championship also ended here.
Only after KT successfully advanced to the semifinals did the Korean audience at the scene dare to cheer loudly.
After two consecutive days of upsets, they were really worried that KT would be defeated by FNC. Even when KT took the lead in winning the final game, they did not dare to make a loud noise until the game had completely lost its suspense.
The significance of RNG's World Championship this time is to make everyone dare not underestimate any opponent.
After this game, whenever an LPL team dares to open champagne at halftime, netizens will use this game to warn the team that opens champagne at halftime.
After this game, the semi-final matchup list was also released.
EDG vs. G2, KT vs. C9.
