Introduction: Since IG won the S Championship for the first time for LPL in 2018, LPL has won three trophys from LCK and LECh in the past four seasons, which is a proof of the overall strength of the competition area; but disappointingly, the second seed TES lost to GAM on October 16, and failed to bring a report of the qualifying of all players. Looking back at the 11 S matches that LPL participated in, TES is definitely not the first team to stop in the top 16. Even after , even after S4, LPL has only S8 for S8 for one year but no team failed in the group stage in . Hereinafter, the author will give a brief review of the LPL teams that have been terminated in the top 16 in the S matches in previous years.
2 No. 1 seeds and 3 No. 2 seeds, LPL group stage "up" frequently
Generally speaking, the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds in each competition area have dominant performance in the league, and the limit of the players is higher, so no audience thought they would be eliminated in the group before the game. After S4, there are two No. 1 seeds that LPL has been eliminated in the top 16: LGD of S5 and EDG of S7. , LGD is completely unsuitable for the S game version, and the OP hero's iron man in the bottom lane was directly beaten to 0-3 in the first round, and even in the second round, he was unable to make up for the situation 2-4. EDG was also 0-3 in the first round, and it also contributed the famous scene of "10,000 economic reversal". This may be the game that the whole EDG team least wants to recall.
No. 2 seeds: RNG of S9, FPX of S11, and TES of S12. They are also one of the most popular teams in their respective seasons. Among them, RNG lost to FNC in the overtime, leaving behind the world competition masterpiece of Uzi, which indirectly led to RNG not recovering for two years; FPX and TES have a joint party - Tian. FPX's original team fell apart after S11, and TES needs to wait until the transfer period of the winter window before the next answer.
S competition top 16 record voting chart: LGD topped the top, TES evenly divided the color, EDG was on the list
On October 18, a "S competition top 16 record voting chart" sparked heated discussion in the forum. The voting theme was "Which team in is the most surprising thing to eliminate in the top 16 ", and a total of 782 viewers participated in the voting. The results showed that LGD reached the top with a high vote rate of 39%. Players could not accept the LGD core player Godv before the game and asked the audience "What is the best championship skin to choose? Bright Moon or Clockwork " and could not accept the outrageous behavior of jungler tbq in the full AP lineup. TES, the second voter to win
, has a 34% vote rate. , but the author believes that if S5 and S7 have seen the public opinion atmosphere of the group being eliminated by LGD and EDG, the audience has shown their ultimate gentleness towards TES' defeat this time. After all, TES did not make harsh words before the game, nor did it contribute a "shamed" game worth remembering. EDG ranked third in , but the parties involved Scout and Meiko won the championship for LPL in S11, so there are almost no players who are stalking about the old things anymore. In addition, S5's IG contributed the record of LPL's surrender in the S game. I have to look at the IG of that year.
Crispy Pig Summary:
Even the most ordinary player, from the moment he stood on the S stage, he lost his identity as the No. 1 seed and No. 2 seed. Like more than 100 contestants in other competition areas, his goal is to win the championship. Every year we emphasize that "there is no weak team in the S game". The fundamental meaning is to remind players not to underestimate any bo1 game. There are countless examples of losing to their opponents because of despising BP. The backs of the players shed tears on the arena are heartbreaking. Even if we win more championships, we will not hope that there will be another team in the LPL team in the group in the future.
Summary of this issue: Which team do you think is the most unacceptable to be eliminated in the group stage? Let’s discuss rationally in the comment section!
