Chapter 1275: Three Roads Collapsed Without a Trace
In the 2019 LPL Summer Regular Season, which is about to come to an end, including the remaining team points that have not been played today and tomorrow, it will have no impact on the Tianmu team's points ranking.
Currently, the Skymute Team is ranked seventh in the standings.
The playoffs system is similar to the bubble match, grouping the eight teams that have advanced.
There are a group of 1, 4, 5, and 8, and there are a group of 2, 3, 6, and 7.
The winner in the first round will then continue to challenge the higher-ranking team upwards.
For example: in the first round, 8 challenge 5, 7 challenge 6, the winner challenge 4 and 3 respectively, and so on.
The first team in the two groups will advance to the finals, and the second team in the two groups will compete for the third place in the league.
This grouping method will more effectively reflect the advantages of high seed rankings in the regular season and encourage clubs to strive for better results in the regular season.
The competition will be held in the form of BO5.
What is certain now is that the Sky Pavilion was assigned to the second group and challenged the team in the sixth place with the score of seventh place.
If the Skymuse Team wants to participate in the S match as the No. 1 seed, it must defeat the team ranked sixth with points. After winning the team ranked sixth, it must face the team ranked third. If the team ranked third is won, it must also win the team ranked second to finally advance to the finals.
After advancing to the final, we will have to have a final showdown with the teams that won in Group A.
This form is like bubbles, popping out one by one, and finally winning.
However, now we know the grouping format, but the specific grouping has to wait until the game is completely over before it will be clear.
Among them, the rankings of 5, 6 and 3, 4 are relatively close, and may cause some changes, which has some impact on grouping.
The above is the situation where the Skymu team qualified for the S match as the No. 1 seed.
If it is a No. 2 seed, the way to obtain the No. 2 seed is to have the most points in the world finals at the end of the summer season.
During the spring season, Tianmu won 10 points in the finals, and Su Chen had not yet joined the team.
Now the Sky is ranked seventh, and the guaranteed points in the summer playoffs are 10 points.
Because you can only get points by entering the top six.
Sixth place is 10 points, fifth place is 20 points, fourth place is 40 points, third place is 70 points, second place is 90 points, first place is directly the No. 1 seed.
However, the situation in the spring game is:
GBG has 90 points
SZ has 70 points
QH has 50 points
TG has 40 points
EO has 20 points.
According to the summer playoffs, their guaranteed points are GBG and SZ to get at least 40 points.
In other words, even if these two teams fail to win one game, they can still get 40 points.
Then their total points will be 130 points and 120 points.
In other words, even if the Skymute team played until the final and lost in the final and got second place, they could only get 90 points, plus the 10 points in the spring season, they just made up 100 points.
But these 100 points are of no use, because they cannot exceed 130 points for GBG or 120 points for SZ.
So no matter what, the Skymu team cannot participate in the S match as the second seed.
The third possibility is to participate in the bubble competition.
The Bubble Competition is also called the regional qualifiers. Apart from the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds, the remaining teams, the top three teams in the global finals, will hold the Bubble Competition to compete for the No. 3 seeds.
In other words, in the playoffs, the Sky Team must at least achieve the top three results before they can qualify for a bubble match.
That's just qualifications, and the competition will be held in the future depending on the points.
In short, there are only two ways for the Sky Team to enter the S game.
The first type is the summer playoff champion, the No. 1 seed that goes straight to the S game.
The second type is to enter the top three in the summer playoffs, enter the next round of bubble matches and compete with the other two teams to compete for the No. 3 seed.
The situation Mingyue and Lin Wenxin have explained it clearly to everyone. No matter which method is used, the sky has to overcome all obstacles and win four BO5 games in a row to see the dawn of the S game.
The BO5 competition tests the players' physical fitness and mentality, and is also a way to best examine the overall strength of a team.
Whether it is winning the championship or competing for the third place, the Skymu team must play BO5 in four games.
And every move is a life-and-death situation.
If you lose, you will be eliminated directly. Only by winning BO5 will you be eligible to enter the next round.
It's like a wheel battle, it goes without saying how difficult it is, and the schedule is very tight.
Group B, the first round is held on August 23, the second round is August 25, the third round is September 1, and the fourth round is, if you lose in the third round, you will play the third round on September 4. If you win in the third round, you will play the finals on September 6.
The shortest time is to get BO5 at 2 days apart.
After playing four BO5 games in half a month, it is almost certain that the five people in Tianmu were able to destroy them and emptie their family's assets.
For this qualifying match, it is impossible for the sky to continue to hide private matters, and all routines and black technologies must be used to light them up.
...
After listening to Lin Wenxin's story, everyone in the sky felt that the pressure was too high and there was less than a week before the start of the competition.
BO5, the Tianmu team has not been played, and no one knows how it will be played.
The future is full of unknowns.
"The competition has begun. Have you not finished the meeting yet?" Just as everyone in the Tianmu was immersed in the atmosphere of uncertain future, a voice broke the tranquility in the conference room.
The person who came here was Hua Yin who went to the new base to preside over the work today.
"Okay, okay, let's watch the game!" Hua Yin knew what was going on when he saw this situation. After all, he had known the qualifying situation of the Tianmu team.
"Everyone go to the training room to watch the competition, there is no training competition tonight." Mingyue stood up from her seat and signaled that everyone could leave.
Su Chen and his group returned to the training room, and Lin Wenxin quickly opened the large screen in the training room. This is for watching the video, but now it is for watching the game.
Today's game is the third-ranked QH team and the fourth-ranked TG team.
The two teams have similar points, and the results of the game may make the rankings of the two teams change.
In other words, this game determines whether they are assigned to Group A or Group B or Group B.
The competition has not yet begun and is in the preparation stage, and the two commentators are still chatting with the audience.
In the main LPL venue of the Magic City, the members of the QH and TG teams have already arrived at their respective backstage lounges.
In the backstage lounge of QH team, the head coach of QH team pulled jungler LYY aside and whispered, "You only have one task, that is, you will lead the three routes without any trace."
LYY:"???"
LYY thought he heard it wrong, wasn’t this asking himself to play a fake match?
Head coach: "Don't you understand? It's just to let your teammates have a disadvantage and then lose the game. This is not a fake game, but you are in poor condition today and your performance is not satisfactory. If we lose the game, the ranking will drop to fourth. We can be assigned to Group A without facing the TM team. The Skymuse team is too strong now. I'm afraid we can't beat them."
At the same time, in the backstage lounge of TG team, the head coach summoned all the players to come.
"Today's game against QH team, you can play. For example, who is the mid laner, you can learn Su Chen's gameplay and mid laner skateboard shoes. I think you can try it. If you are a jungler, you might as well get an Amumu..."
Team members: "..."
The two teams have their own ulterior motives, and no one wants to win this game. If QH wins, it will be divided into Group B and TM.
Chapter completed!
