Chapter 380: Chapter 379 competition schedule

The first day of the group stage competition ended with the domestic team winning both games.

On the first day, the domestic teams, NRG and IF, were the first and last match respectively. They would be playing against the European and North American teams, without playing against the Korea teams.

After a day of competition, a few teams and star players left a deep impression on the audience.

It was the mid-laner combination, Black and Silver, from the NRG.

IF’s mid-laner Hu Jing lust and ADC-laner Luo Yongchang Roy.

Frost, the mid-laner of the Korea team’s OST.

Muffy, the support player of the Korea team MAD.

The mid-laner of the European team vs G, Pure.

He was the ADC of the North American team, weasel East gaming.

At the current stage, professional teams in League of Legends were still very dependent on the individual strength of the star players. Although they would also grab strong champions, their understanding of Champions, routines, and tactics had not reached that level.

…

When the audience watched the game, they were all focused on the highlights and their signature Champions. In any case, as long as there was a kill, they would cheer, and they couldn’t see much tactical intent or details.

The schedule for the first round of the group stage basically gave all the teams in each Division A chance to make an appearance. All the matches were BO1, and each team only had to play one game a day.

After the first round, each team in the group would play a game with the other three teams. Generally speaking, with two wins, the situation of advancing was more optimistic.

In the second round of the group competition, the four-day schedule was to finish a group every day and directly decide whether the team in the group would stay or leave. This stage was very tense and cruel.

At the end of the first day of the competition, although the two domestic teams, NRG and IF, had both won, the domestic teams were nervous instead. After seeing the performance of the other teams, they realized that these teams were not weak at all!

The older European and American teams performed better than expected. They were not as weak as everyone thought. The Korea team had improved significantly and even seemed to be much stronger than the European and American teams!

In fact, the domestic teams often had training tournaments with the Korea teams. This was also a kind of e-sports tradition, which had been carried on from the previous RTS games and FPS games. After all, cross-Division Training could challenge opponents with completely different styles, which was good for both sides.

However, due to the late release of the Korean server, the Korea teams basically played very badly against the Chinese teams. Their individual skills were far worse, so IF’s Hu Jing had the idea of looking down on the Korean teams.

However, after today’s game, the leaders of the various domestic teams analyzed the performance of several strong teams and were surprised to find that the Korea team was improving very fast!

The two games that were played today were also against Europe and the United States. One was a solo show by OST’s middle-laner, Frost, and Orianna dominated the game. In the other match, MAD’s support player, Muffy Tauren, walked around the entire game and established a huge advantage for the team in the middle of the game.

This was a world of difference from the performance of the Korea team in the previous training games.

The leaders of the various teams began to pay attention to the situation. They studied several strong opponents, especially MG and Ntclub, who were in the same group as the two Korea teams, E Motus and MAD. They collected information overnight and analyzed the playing style of the two Korean teams.

Judging from the results of the first day, the performance of China and South Korea was not bad. On the other hand, the European and American teams, except for veteran teams such as VSG and WBG, performed very badly.

Of course, this was also related to the grouping. There were strong and weak teams in each division. Today, it just so happened that the strong teams from China and Korea had met the weak teams from Europe and America, so there was no suspense in their victory.

If the following matches were to be a battle between the strong, the outcome would be hard to say.

The strength of each division wasn’t much different from Chen Mo’s estimation.

Overall, the domestic team was the strongest. This was without a doubt. Since the Chinese server’s League of Legends had been online for a few months, the player base was large. In the process of the Masters ‘confrontation, the top players in the country improved very quickly.

If a player from another server came to the local server, he would obviously find that the pace of the king segment in the local server was faster than that of the other servers, and the players ‘skills were better.

And at this stage, the domestic e-sports environment was relatively clean. There was no influx of hot money, and the minds of e-sports players were still relatively simple. This was a group of players with e-sports dreams. Although there was no particularly strict management system, they were generally very hardworking, so it was normal for them to be in the lead temporarily.

Whether it was individual strength or team cooperation, the domestic teams were obviously better than the other divisions.

The European division and the Korea division were similar in level, but their styles were different. South Korea was more inclined to mid-stage rhythm and team cooperation, while Europe was more inclined to development and team battles.

The e-sports Foundation of these two divisions was relatively deep. Many professional players in League of Legends had transformed from other events. Their reaction and operation were very good, and with good team management and a lot of training, they made rapid progress.

As for North America, only a few old strong teams could compete with China, Korea, and Europe.

This situation was just as Chen Zhao had predicted.

In fact, in Chen Mo’s previous life, S2 was the era of rising power. South Korea had AZF and NajinSword, Europe had M5 and CLG.eu, China had WE and IG, and the champion TPA. The gap between the top teams wasn’t that big, it was more of a difference in philosophy, tactics, and performance.

It was the same in parallel world. League of Legends was still in its early stages, and the strong teams in each region were still in the exploration stage. There were no regional leagues, so there were no divisions that dominated the game.

The Chinese server had opened a few months earlier, so the number of players in the Chinese server was far more than that of the foreign servers. This was already a great start, and the world Tournament was going to be held in their home stadium. If they couldn’t beat the foreign teams, then these professional players didn’t need to play anymore. They should just go home and sell their pancakes.

……

IF team’s training room.

Hu Jing was watching the recording of the OST team’s match.

OST’s mid-laner, Frost, was one of the top mid-laners in Korea. This match was against the North American team. He had used Orianna to solo his opponent once. In the mid-game for the Dragon, he had pulled in four players by hiding the ball, directly establishing the victory.

After the first day’s matches, the domestic teams more or less stopped looking down on the foreign teams and began to seriously study the styles and play of these teams.

“This OT should be the most threatening opponent in our group,” the leader asked.”What do you think of his individual skills?”

Hu Jing watched the video seriously.”She’s very strong. She’s good at all the details. She’s very familiar with Orianna and has a good understanding of the game.”

“Then, do you have confidence in this Frost?” the team leader asked.

“Don’t worry,” Hu Jing said calmly.”He’s very strong, but he’s far from Chen Mo ‘s.”

“Really?” the leader was stunned.

Hu Jing laughed.”Frost’s Orianna is also very fierce in the lane. Her control is very delicate, but I should be able to handle it. Whether it’s Icebird or deathsong, I’m confident that I won’t be at a disadvantage in the lane.” What’s more, our AD is stronger than the OT’s ad. As long as I stay calm and wait for the mid-late team battle, the chances of winning are high. ”
