Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 315: Come back from 2-0 to 3-0?
"In the last match, LGD unexpectedly defeated EDG with a score of 3-0 and advanced to the finals. According to the points , LGD, who won the runner-up in the spring season, already has 200 points.
In the next match, no matter whether IG or QG wins, even with the points of the summer season champion, they cannot exceed LGD's points. Therefore, no matter whether LGD wins or loses in the final summer season finals, they will go to the world championship as the No. 1 seed of the LPL region! "
"Then let's wait and see the competition between IG and QG."
Amid the explanation of the points rules of the popular science competition , the second regular match began, with IG, the old powerhouse team formed by Principal Wang, facing QG, the dark horse newcomer.
Not only was IG's boss, Principal Wang, sitting in the audience, but also IG's famous top laner PDD. Therefore, the IG players on the field were also ready to go. It was rare for the boss to personally supervise the battle. If they lost, they would probably sink into the Huangpu River after leaving the field.
However, as the saying goes, in e-sports, the winner is the king. Before the results are announced, no one knows who will have the last laugh.
While the players on the field were preparing for the competition nervously, Principal Wang and Zhou Dongsheng off the field were chatting and laughing, looking particularly relaxed.
"What do you think about this one? Do you want to make another bet?" Principal Wang tried to use the same trick again.
Zhou Dongsheng decisively refused. "No, as the saying goes, nine out of ten gambling games are lost. I won once, and the next nine times I lost, so I decided to stop in time."
In fact, it’s not that Zhou Dongsheng didn’t want to press on with his victory, but as an old e-sports fan, Zhou Dongsheng only vaguely remembered that LGD in S5 emerged like a flash in the pan.
After winning the summer championship , he represented the number one seed in the world championship. It was because of this talented young man that many players called this year "the most promising year."
However, unexpectedly, the era of being dominated by LCK had just begun. This dark moment lasted until the 2017 Bird's Nest final...
Apart from remembering that LGD was like a bright meteor streaking across the sky, Zhou Dongsheng didn't even remember who his opponent in the final was.
After all, in the history of e-sports, people come and go, but only the glory of the champion can last forever, and the winner takes all.
As for the runner-up, even if it is the honor of the world runner-up, in the minds of many viewers, he is still a "loser", at most he just lost in a more decent way.
"You are too cunning, too steady..." Principal Wang was speechless, but shook his head and said nothing more. He was already accustomed to Zhou Dongsheng's steady style.
Zhou Dongsheng's record of escaping the stock market unscathed speaks for itself.
However, compared to LGD's unexpected upset, which defeated EDG cleanly, the match between IG and QG was more of a stalemate.
At the beginning of the first game, QG gave IG a warning. Both sides used the bottom lane as a breakthrough point and launched a fierce confrontation. As a result, QG was more skilled and won a great victory. Both Cs developed.
In the end, they fought a wonderful team battle in the late game, and QG achieved a perfect result of 2 for 5, forcing IG to surrender.
This also made Zhou Dongsheng feel uncomfortable again. It was really unsatisfying to watch a game where he could surrender.
The fact that IG got off to a bad start in the first game also made Principal Wang very unhappy and ashamed. "It's really not okay to surrender during a game. E-sports should never give up. I must make suggestions to the official..."
Principal Wang said indignantly.
Liu, the IG star, also scratched his head and said: "Decisive surrender also has its advantages. At least it will not affect the mentality of the second game. As long as you adjust in time, you can catch up in the second game."
Principal Wang's expression eased slightly, and the second game began.
However, the result of the second game was even more unexpected. Under the leadership of QG jungler Swift, the mid-jungle brother combination played a perfect linkage, and a perfect snowball rhythm forced IG into a desperate situation.
In the end, they scored twice in a teamfight with 2 for 5 and defeated IG, showing their dark horse status to the fullest.
As dark as the dark horse QG was, Principal Wang's face was as dark as well. IG fell behind by a huge score of 0-2, which was really beyond Principal Wang's expectations.
Zhou Dongsheng coughed and said, "Well, in e-sports, anything is possible. Maybe we can come back from 2-0 down to 3-0 down."
"That's right, never give up in e-sports. IG is a veteran and strong team after all, so they will definitely be able to adjust." Liu, the IG legend, also saved his face in time.
But to Principal Wang, what Zhou Dongsheng said sounded particularly familiar. Wasn't this what he said when EDG was 0-2 behind LGD?
I didn't expect the retribution to come so quickly, which made Principal Wang's face even darker.
Also, it seems that the Korean aid Zhongye, who was brought in at a high price, has not achieved the results he wanted to see.
Principal Wang couldn't help but say stubbornly: "It's good that we lost. Song Yijin can be sent directly to your IM. I will buy Wei Shen to reinforce..."
At the scene, the commentator's voice was also particularly excited, "The game was so exciting, is it another 3-0? Then the audience who bought tickets today will suffer a loss..."
The director cut the camera to Principal Wang at the right time. His face, which looked like Bao Qingtian, was particularly conspicuous. "We can see that IG has suffered a series of defeats, and Principal Wang is obviously not in a good mood..."
"Is there a possibility that it was because of Principal Wang's on-site supervision that the IG players were under too much pressure and performed poorly? I hope that IG can bring us a wonderful match next time. I also hope that IG's famous top laner PDD can give some off-court support to Zizi who switched to the top lane this season..."
The slightly green Guan Zeyuan spoke eloquently. Although he had not yet been promoted to the rank of colonel at that time, he had already begun to develop the ability .
At the beginning of the match point game, perhaps knowing that if they continued to lose, their jobs would be in jeopardy, IG finally woke up. We are all Korean aid mid and jungle players, so it’s finally our turn to perform, right?
Kakao brought out Nidalee, Rookie brought out Ahri, and the mid and jungle worked together to catch the smug Coin Brother and beat him up, killing him four times in a row, and personally put a mask of pain on Coin Brother.
After using Coin Brother as a breakthrough point, IG's Korean aid mid and jungle completely opened up the situation, rolling up a perfect snowball rhythm, directly beating QG away, winning back a city, and doing their best to keep their jobs.
This remarkable game finally improved Principal Wang's mood, especially the Korean aid midfielder who finally lived up to his worth.
"Not bad. As long as we win one more game, we might be able to come back from 2-0 down to 3-0." Principal Wang said with a smile.
“As long as I can hear the war song live, I will have no regrets.” Zhou Dongsheng continued.
In his heart, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but sigh, "You are worthy of being Guan Zeyuan. You haven't even become a colonel yet, but your poisonous prediction is so accurate. Judging from the operation of Brother Coin, it is obvious that the keyboard is leaking milk..."
It's really terrifying!
