LoL: I really didn’t mess up!

After the game, Chen Dongqing did not stay at the venue this time, but retreated with the team.

Their game was finished in the morning, and they had nothing to do all afternoon. They chose to return to the training room to watch the game remotely.

In one afternoon, the remaining three groups of games in the winner group all produced results.

QG, OP, VP, the top three from Group A, all defeated their opponents and advanced to the second round of the knockout round.

On the other side, Group B was almost completely wiped out. Only EG, the top team in Group B, defeated its opponents and also advanced.

Next, today's four winners will be divided into two teams. QG will face VP, while EG will face OG to start the second round of the winner group.

Of course, the second round of the winner's bracket won't start so soon, they have to wait a day and a half.

The night passed quickly, and the time came to August 7, the second day of the knockout round.

The four losers from yesterday's winner's group will continue to compete in the second round of the loser's group today. They are:

Newbee (center) vs. VGJT (center).

TL vs. TS (center).

Secret vs. VG (center).

Mski vs. OpTic.

There are eight teams in the loser group, and there are four Chinese teams. It is still a heart-pounding part.

The one who came up to take charge of the opening was still a civil war between the Chinese team. Yesterday's loser, Newbee, faced off against VGJT.

This civil war between the Chinese team was quite intense, with all three games lasting 40 minutes. In the end, Newbee advanced and successfully advanced to the third round of the loser's bracket.

During the civil war, the Chinese team lost another general.

Chen Dongqing was sitting in the lounge, feeling a little sad.

On the first day of the group stage, the VGJT people still joked with him, saying that he would meet again in the finals?

As a result, they unfortunately left in the second round of the lower bracket.

It still makes little sense.

Everyone in Newbee, who had struggled to advance, let out a sigh of relief at this moment, bowed deeply towards the audience, and then returned to the backstage.

Not long after, the second group of duels came to the stage.

TL, which lost to QG yesterday, faced TS today.

Speaking of Team Serenity, not only the major foreign team audiences, but also many Chinese audiences are very unfamiliar with them.

Because this team does not have any superstar players, they are a team that emerged from the public auditions. They have fought all the way through auditions, domestic qualifiers, and now in Vancouver.

CNDOTA has never lacked grassroots teams. In 2016, Wings followed this grassroots route and miraculously won the Champions League that year.

There has never been a dynasty that has won two consecutive championships in the history of TI. Every championship is precious, and the legendary Wings is the most brilliant fireworks in the history of DOTA2.

TS is the spiritual successor of the legendary wings.

But it is a pity that TS did not go all the way to the end like Wings and stopped at 9-12th place.

In the game against TL, they were clearly defeated.

As a grassroots team, it is still too difficult to compete with a defending champion like TL.

Of course, this matchup itself is legendary enough. Even if they lose the game, it will be an honor to lose.

After TS was eliminated, we took a short break at noon and the time came to the afternoon.

The third set of duels begins.

Secret vs. VG.

At this time, countless viewers in China had already gotten up. As soon as they got up, they saw the news that VGJT and TS were eliminated, and then saw the Chinese team on stage. They were shaken for a while and were uneasy.

VG, you can't lose again, can you?

Soon, the game begins.

After the laning period in the first game, VG had a three-way advantage.

At 17 minutes, after a wave of pulling, Secret exchanged heads between Fire Girl and Bat and then bought a living to take over a generation of Roshan. They bought Fire Girl to pick up the Roshan Shield, and then pushed it with the shield, but at this time VG big brother TB did I got out of BKB and relied on BKB to survive this wave.

Immediately afterwards, VG relied on two waves of side grabs and a perfect wave of team battles to take the lead, gaining a huge advantage in 28 minutes!

At the 56th minute, VG had the strongest wave. TB took a refresh and stood on the high ground. After the two lines were broken, VG wiped out the Secret team. Secret played GG, and VG took the lead.

Domestically, countless spectators opened champagne.

In a BO3 game, winning one game first basically equals victory!

Let one chase two? It’s very blue!

As a result, after ten minutes, Secret chose to change the formation and chose the three cores of Big and Small Skeletons and Zeus, and the line was extremely strong.

In just the laning phase, VG was beaten to the point where it was unable to last any last hits. Niutou at the fourth position tried to roam to rescue the team, but it had no effect at all, and instead caused his own position at the third position to be killed.

In just eight minutes, Teacher Da directly gave VG a winning rate of 8%.

Big Teacher is the big data real-time win rate analysis function of DOTA2. Through the strong division of heroes and the current economy, it comprehensively evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of both sides. It is generally quite accurate.

When the great teacher gives a single-digit winning rate of 8%, there is basically no possibility of a comeback.

Sure enough, Secret won this game easily by staying close to the line!

Countless domestic viewers were shocked again, and their originally stable hearts suddenly became a little worried.

In the third game, both sides changed their formations at the same time. VG took out NEC and Xiaoxiao to strengthen the lane, successfully gained a three-way advantage, and continued to expand the advantage.

But VG didn't immediately notice that Secret's Pat Bear and Carl disappeared at the same time.

As mentioned before, Pai Pai Xiong's passive can make it more painful as it gets closer to A. This hero is the most convenient hero to defeat Roshan.

If paired with a Karl who can increase attack speed, it's a speed run!

When everyone in VG finally realized it, the news that Roshan had been killed came on the screen.

Relying on Roshan's economy and the protective effect of Roshan Shield, Secret managed to survive five minutes and overcame the early disadvantage.

At 30 minutes, VG opened the fog and was counter-crouched, resulting in a miserable endgame of five for four. In the end, Secret's remaining Paipaxiong single-handedly took over the second-generation Roshan.

At the 33rd minute, Secret charged up with a shield and once again launched a perfect team fight.

Everyone in VG couldn't afford to live, so they could only play GG, and they also stopped at 9-12th place.

Today seems to be CNDOTA’s Good Friday. Five mighty teams came here, but only the last two were left when they returned.

Where did this game end? We haven't even passed half of the knockout rounds yet, and we're almost finished?

How to fight this?

Seeing this, countless Chinese viewers were shattered, and some even called this the worst year for CNDOTA.

However, there are still a small number of viewers who believe in the metaphysical law that even-numbered years will win the championship. They believe that QG and Newbee will definitely reach the end.

In the blink of an eye, the time came to August 8, the third day of the group stage.

This morning, it’s still not a winner’s bracket game.

Still in the loser bracket.

The four teams that struggled to advance to the lower bracket yesterday will directly engage in a round of death showdown this morning, eliminating the number of teams to only two teams!

Only in this way can the number of losers group match the number of winners group.

The rules of TI have always been like this. For the strong teams in the upper bracket, they just sit around and play one game every two or three days.

For the teams in the lower bracket, it is a hellish test of life and death. Back-to-back battles can even make the players' mentality collapse.

In the first game, Secret and Mski took the stage and started a battle.

In the end, Secret defeated his opponent 2-1 and successfully survived.

Immediately afterwards, Newbee took the stage again to face TL.

This game is a little bit interesting, because last year it was these two teams that had the ultimate battle of TI7 in Seattle.

At that time, TL swept Newbee in three games and won the TI7 Championship Shield.

In the lounge at this time, coach Xiaoba had his hands clasped together with a hint of hope in his heart.

He won the TI championship with Newbee back then, and he still has some affection for this team. Of course, he hopes that this team can continue to make further progress.

To be fair, judging from his experience coaching QG, TL is not that difficult to play, right?

But the result was destined to disappoint him.

In two games, TL swept Newbee 2-0 and successfully advanced to the next round.

Newbee unfortunately stopped at 7-8th place.

After Xiaoba saw this result, he couldn't help but fainted on the back of his chair, and passed out on the spot. COSPLAY Wu Jing.

Fainted by CNDOTA.jpg

Countless Chinese viewers couldn't accept it and felt angina pectoris for a while.

There are six teams, one in the top 16, three in the top 12, and one in the top eight.

Is CNDOTA already so miserable?

Obviously last year they dominated the Yaji Palace!

What kind of Dharma-ending era is this?

Everyone turned their attention to the schedule.

Just this afternoon, the game returned to the winner's bracket.

CNDOTA2's only hope came to the last lone seedling, QG. .

But QG's opponent is the only VP who defeated them in the group stage.

It feels a bit like sending it!

The lunch break is fleeting, and it’s afternoon in Vancouver, where the winner’s bracket game is about to begin.

Chen Dongqing and his teammates sat down in the backstage lounge, swiping their fingers across the screen in front of them, watching the discussion on the forum.

Too many things happened in the past two days of the game, which caused the domestic audience to feel emotionally shattered, and the forums were full of despair.

It is now the eighth year since TI was founded. If you include the DOTA1 era, it can even be traced back to 2009.

For so many years, China has been the absolute hegemon in the DOTA2 world. It will definitely win the championship in even years. Even if it loses the championship in odd years, it will definitely lead to the arrogant drama of the CNDOTAvs world. Even if it loses the game, no one will think that China is embarrassed.

This year, CNDOTA made history. Four teams were directly invited. Counting the two places in the qualifiers, they occupied six seats among the eighteen teams, accounting for one-third!

When the list came out, everyone thought that another Chinese championship era was coming.

But the accident happened so quickly that people were caught off guard.

They have only reached the quarter-final stage, and the Chinese team has already lost five out of six, leaving only one young team.

It turns out that the prosperous age will not come, but will become farther and farther away.

[Don’t worry, isn’t QG still here? 】

[Indeed, QG qualified first in the group and beat TL 2-0, no problem! 】

[But QG has defects visible to the naked eye, so they will wait for big brother C. This is too unhealthy]

[QG is okay against other teams, but it’s really bad against VP. The key is that they have to play against VP soon! 】

[Oh, it’s hard to resist, I hope QG can win]

【Believe Brother Shu】

[I didn’t expect that from a LOL player.]

[My suggestion is that when playing VP, let Ame play, he is good at playing VP]

[Forget it then, players won’t be able to adapt if they keep changing players]

Chen Dongqing swiped down the screen, his expression unchanged.

"What are you looking at?" Maybe also came forward at this time and looked at the content on the screen of Chen Dongqing's mobile phone.

"Tieba." Chen Dongqing turned the screen sideways and said with a smile, "The bar doesn't seem to think much of us?"

"I don't want to look at this stuff." Maybe immediately turned his head to avoid it!

When he won a few minor championships before, he did watch the forum for a while. He originally wanted to see how the friends in the forum boasted about himself, but his taste changed after watching it.

Mainly because those people exaggerated too much.

Words such as being the number one in active play, being scheduled to win a championship, and being able to surpass Miracle Brother even though he has no championship, make people feel numb.

Miracle is the TL mid laner, last year's champion, and is called the "next level player" by the commentators.

Of course, in the last few fights, Miracle Brother has indeed never beaten him. Yesterday, he was stepped on and beheaded by his blood demon.

This kind of excessive praise will be counterattacked. When they were double-killed by OG, all this kind of praise turned into a boomerang.

Some time ago, he was praised as "the one who surpasses Miracle Brother without a crown", but now he has been condensed into "Wu Guanchao".

Then he also got a nickname, Brother Chao.

His name is Maybe, pronounced Somnus, his name is Lu Yao, and his nickname is Brother Chao.

The four names are completely unrelated to each other, and he is also the only one in the history of e-sports.

But in fact, what does this have to do with him? He did nothing from beginning to end, just killed a few waves of Miracle Brothers.

All I can say is that it's quite disappointing.

Tieba is just a big cesspit. Wouldn’t it affect my mood if I read it every day?

Oh, if it's Brother Shu, maybe it really won't.

The boomerang can't hit him!

So infuriating.

Chen Dongqing smiled and said: "Then do you think we have a good chance of winning today?"

"Does that need to be said?" Maybe said with a grin: "With Brother Shu here, I will definitely win easily!"

Chen Dongqing glanced at Maybe and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Why do you look like a mid laner in a certain LOL division?

Are all mid laners in this world like this?

"Okay, the game is about to begin, let's talk about how to play today."

At this time, there was only half an hour left before the start of the game. Coach Xiaoba stood in front and began the final tactical discussion.

Chen Dongqing took one last look at the message, then turned off his phone and stuffed it into his backpack.

Everyone was quite serious at this time.

VP can indeed be called a strong rival of QG.

After all, they were the only team to win a game against QG in the group stage.

In that game, VP's crazy targeting of Chen Dongqing became a key factor in winning.

"If we choose the late stage and can't withstand VP's early attack." Xiaoba frowned and said, "Then we might as well choose an early stage to fight against them. Anyway, we have already practiced the early stage offense. As long as we attack in the early stage, If we are evenly matched, we have a great chance of winning.”

"I can handle it." A voice suddenly sounded in the lounge, and it came from Chen Dongqing.

Everyone turned their eyes and saw that the person who spoke was Chen Dongqing.

Xiaoba asked again: "What does it mean to be able to bear it?"

"I mean." Chen Dongqing said with a smile: "I can withstand VP's attack now."

"Why."

"Their offensive tactics only work for me once, and they don't work the second time. I know them very well now."

"Are you serious?"

"Believe me." Chen Dongqing's words were resounding, and combined with his identity, people had to believe him.

Of course his words were not without purpose.

After undergoing meditation training, he now knows all of VP's tactics.

It is absolutely best to use a late-stage big core to fight against VP, because he is guaranteed to develop and carry the game.

Coach Xiaoba squinted his eyes and thought for two seconds, then said: "Okay, I believe you."

Sorry, a little less today

Tomorrow there will be a chapter that will directly end the BO3 with VP
