There is no time for them to carefully experience the afterglow of the long-lost victory, because the playoffs are about to begin.

The promotion situations of groups A and B are as follows:

Group A: EDG, SSR, GT, IG.

Group B: RNG, WE, Snake, VG.

The other four teams, Newbee, SAT, LGD, and OMG, will participate in the promotion and relegation competition.

Soon, the playoffs and relegation schedules were all out.

In the first round, the knockout round of eight to six, BO5 was divided into two sides: GT vs. VG, Snake vs. IG.

The winners on both sides will enter the next round of knockout rounds, with simple and rough rules.

The SSR team has to face the winner between Snake and IG.

The day before the competition, several people started discussing it while having dinner.

"Who do you think we will hit the end?" Hao Ren asked everyone.

Han Xin said: "Snake, the Snakes are in a better state than IG. They have been winning recently, and IG has lost a lot recently."

Xiang Yuxuan said, "There is also a gap in strength, and the Snake Team is better than IG as a whole."

It can be seen from the group stage points that the Snakes' record is 9-7, while IG's record is 6-10, and the gap is still very obvious.

IG has been doing poorly in 2016. Whether it is the individual strength of the players or the cooperation of the entire team, it is far from the team ahead of LPL.

"I hope to call IG."

Qin Tianyu said: "I am confident that I can defeat them when playing IG's bottom lane, but Snake's bottom lane...it's hard to say. I don't know if it's Krystal or Martin."

Han Xin said: "Didn't it mean that Brother Crystal was injured? It seems that they are all Martin on their team recently."

Lin Han told him: "It seems that he is back and he should play in the playoffs."

Qin Tianyu said: "The last time I played against their team in the foreign battle, I played Martin, and I haven't played against Krystal yet... I have a good rhythm and Krystal, so the laning should be quite strong."

Han Xin asked him: "Draven and Thresh? Do you think they will pay it?"

Hao Ren said: "It shouldn't be true. Draven's hero game is still not very useful."

Those who follow the game should know that Draven and Thresh are the two signature heroes of Krystal and Rhythm respectively.

In the S5 season, the dark horse team Snake emerged. In addition to the top laner Saint Gun Brother, the most impressive thing should be their team's AD - Krystal.

As a newcomer, Krystal showed his extremely powerful strength in his debut in LPL, and his playing style was very fierce, becoming the core of their team.

What is particularly amazing is his hand Draven.

In a game against IG, he won five kills and became the first five kill in LPL history, which shocked all the audience.

The rhythm of the support. Before playing professionally, he was originally an anchor on a live broadcast platform. Later, he joined the Snake team as an assistant in the team. Thresh is his very good character.

Han Xin thought for a while and said, "But during this period, Snake and his team were all Martin and rhythm on the bottom lane. Suddenly, Krystal made the bottom lane, and the running-in with the support may not be good."

Lin Han said: "No matter who the opponent is, we just play our own... I believe everyone knows the importance of this game."

After saying that, several people were silent at the same time.

In the spring season, their team is still playing in LSPL and has no points.

This means that if they lose this six-to-four game, they will not be able to enter the World Championship.

Lin Han looked at them seriously: "We cannot lose this game!"

After working for several years, several people have been working hard to reach the goal of the world stage. Seeing that the opportunity is close, how can they not pay attention to it?

This step must be taken to go further!

"learn!"

......

On Wednesday, August 10, the first round of the LPL summer playoffs, the eight-to-six game officially began.

13:00, in the first game, GT vs. VG.

Since GT is the third place in Group A and VG is the fourth place in Group B, according to the rules, in the first round of the playoffs, the teams with high rankings will lead by one win at the beginning.

In other words, GT has an advantage of 1:0 at the beginning.

Some people think that in the BO5 game, there is an extra win before the game can be played, and such a rule is unfair.

But from another perspective, the top teams have achieved the regular season record based on their own strength, and the advantageous position they occupy is also achieved through their own efforts.

Soon, the game ended, VG won three consecutive games and defeated GT team 3:1.

Not long afterwards, Snake's game against IG was followed.

As most people think, IG's strength is not as good as Snake, and it loses two consecutive games. In addition, Snake's regular season ranking is higher and one more win game, Snake finally defeated IG team with a score of 3:0.

This is also the result expected by SSR players before the game.

......

On August 11, the LPL relegation competition began.

13:00, the first thing to start is OMG's match against SAT. The loser will directly drop the LSPL, and the winner will compete with the LSPL team for the LPL spot next season.

At the end of the game, OMG defeated SAT 3:0 and entered the next round of relegation.

SAT level drop.

Then, Newbee and LGD's second relegation match began.

Since these two teams are in the fifth place in the league, unlike OMG and SAT, the winner will be directly in the LPL, and the loser will enter the next round of relegation to compete with the LSPL team for qualification.

In the end, LGD defeated Newbee 3:0.

The first round of the relegation race ends.

......

On August 12, the second round of the LPL playoffs six to four began.

At around 12 o'clock, Lin Han and the others arrived at the competition venue early.

While walking around the venue, I happened to meet Mingluo again.

"How are you... recently?" Mingluo asked tentatively.

Lin Han smiled and said, "It's okay, the losing streak has been terminated. It's quite smooth to win the last game of the regular season."

Seeing this, Mingluo also smiled and said, "Looking at your relaxed look, your condition has been adjusted?"

Lin Han nodded: "It's almost the same. I won too much before, which makes it difficult to see some problems clearly. Losing a few more games may not be a bad thing."

"Oh by the way." Lin Han asked her again, "Are you going to explain our team's game today?"

"Yeah, yes." Ming Luo responded.

Lin Han joked: "It seems that you won the game in our team... You didn't seem to have commented on it for the time being that lost in a row?"

Mingluo thought for a while: "It seems to be."

Lin Han smiled and said, "Are you the goddess of luck in our team? Is the goddess of luck smiling?"

“…”

Ming Luo gave him a blank look: "It's this time, do you still have the heart to joke about?"

"Haha, optimistic." Lin Han smiled.

The two of them talked about it for a few more times.

"Come on."

"Um."

......

At 13:00, the game between SSR and Snake began.

In this game, SSR was in excellent condition, as if he had eliminated the decline of the team after defeating LGD.

The game ended more than three hours later.

SSR beat Snake three-to-one and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

(PS: Some games can only be described in one stroke. There are so many LPL games, it is impossible to write them all one by one. There is no need to waste your ink and get rid of water. Everyone understands it.
