lp were settled with the end of the sixth anniversary. In the end, the three teams representing LPL to the S series this year are EDG, RNG, and WE. Time flies. The scene of last year's S match is still vivid in my mind. In a blink of an eye, we will embark on our journey. On this stage of the S game, LPL has had a peak but has also fallen to the bottom, which has benefited a lot from us. So let’s review the results of LPL in the S game over the years, and hope that the LPL, which is fighting in the local area this year, will give us a miracle.
S2 season
(S2 WE)
(S2 IG)
at that time, and WE and IG were the two strongest teams in China at that time. They were invited to participate in the S match to represent the Chinese LOL team. IG was defeated by the most legendary team M5 at that time, and WE was even more unlucky to lose to CLG.EU due to network reasons. At this point, both teams fell into the quarterfinals. This is not a good start for the first year, and the S2 championship trophy was won by the Taiwanese team TPA.
S3 season
(S3 Royal Family )
(S3 OMG)
S3 season has an LPL division, and at that time the royal family and the dark forces OMG were representing LPL. Among them, the Royal Family defeated OMG in the qualifying round and became the No. 1 seed to the quarterfinals according to the competition system at that time. OMG met the royal family in advance from the group stage, and the LPL civil war was finally won by the royal family. The royal family continued to move forward, and after winning the semi-finals, they met the Korean team SKT in the final. There is still a gap in strength when facing a strong opponent in the South Korean team, and the Royal Family lost to SKT in the end. Although it is only the runner-up, it also created the best results of LPL in the S game. No LPL team has surpassed it so far.
S4 season
(S4's departure ceremony)
only has two seed quotas in front of S4, but since S3 represents the royal family of LPL, the official decided to add a new S game place in LPL. Since then, LPL has had three places to compete in the S game. The three teams representing LPL at that time were Royal Family, OMG and EDG. The three teams performed well in the group stage and entered the quarterfinals together, but a bowl of beef noodles made Nami, who was known as the No. 1 ADC at the time, fall into the quarterfinals, which also put EDG's first World Championship in the quarterfinals. In the subsequent semi-finals, the royal family met again, and omg lost to the royal family again and personally sent their comrades who were both LPL to the finals. This time, the opponent of the royal family was the terrifying ssw team. SSW won the S4 championship without any suspense, and the royal family once again ranked second.
S5 season
(S5's departure ceremony/cr: a village)
S5 season 0S5 season
S5 season is called the most promising year. LGD even performed well in the annual league and won the summer season championship, becoming the number one seed direct to S5. EDG and IG got the remaining two tickets to the S match through the qualifiers. However, LGD, who was expected by people, performed poorly in the group stage. Not only did he not understand BP, but he also had some mysterious operations. In the first round of the group stage, they lost in a row because they had too few points and left the S game. After that, IG was even worse than others, and the performance of the bottom lane combination was not satisfactory, so the team had long missed the next round. EDG, which entered the quarterfinals, couldn't go further and was easily won by Fanitic. In this way, the three teams ended this S match, which was the worst record in LPL. In the end, SKT won the S5 championship.
S6 season
(S6's departure ceremony/cr: One village)
S6 In addition to the summer league champion EDG and the RNG with the highest points in the year, the newly promoted IM also came to the stage of the S game with a wave of TP. Perhaps it was because I didn’t have enough experience in the competition, so IM stopped in the group stage first. Since EDG and RNG are both second in the group, they will face the two strongest teams in the LCK area in the quarterfinals, ROX and SKT respectively. In these two games, it has to be admitted that LCK's team is higher than LPL's team in all aspects, and this time the LPL team has not been able to reach the quarterfinals. And skt defended the S Series champion.
S7 season
(S6's departure ceremony/cr: One village)
EDG won the championship again in the summer season and declared their position as the league overlord.From the addition of mata and looper in 2016 to the reconnection of UZI, RNG has always maintained its top score in the league and is expected to be distinguished from EDG. WE started to make efforts last year until this year's Spring Championship. They are worth looking forward to when they return to the S Series after five years. This year's three teams are all old-fashioned teams. In addition to their stable performance, they also have many major competition experiences. They can be said to be the strongest combat power of LPL. Although the LCK region is recognized as the strongest, I still look forward to LPL creating miracles again like an intercontinental competition.
summary:
Although there is still half a month left before S7 and the teams participating in the S competition around the world have not yet gathered, this year's S competition is different from previous years, with new entry-level competitions. The third seed in the four major competition areas except LCK must compete with 8 teams in other wild card competition areas to win 4 group stage places, which means that only by passing this finalist can you truly enter S7. This adds some suspense to this year's competition. I hope that the three teams representing LPL this year can also go further together.
