LOL: I've already been transferred to the manager, but you just came to the system

Chapter 209: All group matches are won, and the coach’s warm-up is complete!

Time flies, and the qualifying stage has passed in a flash.

TES did not disappoint the LPL players' expectations of them. There were no mischief or accidents, and there was not even a so-called safe game.

In four group matches, we won four overwhelming victories and took first place in Group A with absolute advantage.

Four of the games seemed to be pre-arranged. After the jungler got the MVP, the mid laner got it, and after the mid laner got the MVP, the support got it. However, the most carry top laner in the LPL region, GimGoon, took the tank and lost four games in a row, which made countless fans of the team laugh and cry.

After the surprise comes ecstasy, because the stronger the team's performance, the further their favorite team can go.

In LPL, it is unhealthy for a team to have GimGoon as the only top laner carrying the team.

Due to the particularity of the top lane, in professional competitions, the early rhythm is always driven by the mid and jungle. If the mid and jungle cannot stand up, how can a team be considered a strong team?

The reason why TES lost to WE in the playoffs was because of the mid-jungle confrontation, when Da'an and Xiaotian lost to the combination of Xiye and Kangdi.

Likewise, when two teams are of similar strength, if the game drags on to the late stages, the balance of victory or defeat will shift to the bottom lane, so it is also important to have a top AD and support team to cover the late stages.

The growth of the other four players of the TES team in the qualifying round undoubtedly gave fans hope.

Of course, TES's amazing performance is not without disadvantages, that is, after LYN and GMB failed once, they never used the Xayah and Rakan combination again.

After all, a two-way disadvantage is better than a three-way disadvantage.

After the double round-robin match, TES ranked first with four bars and zero points, and the second place in Group A was the optimistic Latin American brother, who won two games and lost two and got the qualification to advance to the knockout stage.

Poor GMB brothers, not only did they get eliminated in the first round of the qualifying round, they couldn’t even get their first win.

When the last game was over, many LPL fans posted comments lamenting that they didn't know how long they would have to wait before they could see a team like ANX, which made it to the top eight in the world as a wild card last year.

After Group A's matches, the situations of other groups in the play-in round gradually became clear.

First up is C9 from Group B, which also ranks first in the group with a score of four bars and zero. However, FNC from Group C and FB from Group D did encounter some minor setbacks.

FB won the first place in the group after playing a tiebreaker with HKA from the LMS region. As for FNC, it accidentally lost a point to YG from the Vietnam region and ended its journey in the qualifying group stage with a record of 3 to 1.

However, although the process had some twists and turns, it is still possible to see the big picture from the small details that the four major regions are leading the other regions, and the four seeded teams all advanced as the first in the group.

As soon as this ranking came out, some of the faint protests from the wildcard regions on the forum against setting up a seeding pool for the play-in rounds completely disappeared.

No difference?

These teams will be divided into groups of two each, and see if there is any chance for the teams from other regions to survive.

As for the draw system for the knockout stage after the group stage, where the first and second place will be matched, we can only blame our own lack of strength.

From the 28th to the 29th, two days, four tickets, four elimination matches!
Countless e-sports fans are thrilled. As for the tickets to the top 5, the BO knockout round is undoubtedly bloody. In terms of viewing pleasure alone, it is a level higher than the qualifying round.

Speaking of the knockout rounds, a very interesting thing happened during the grouping process.

After arriving in Wuhan, HKA and ONE went directly to the local Confucius Temple to draw divination, and posted their results on social media, expressing their hope not to be drawn against TES, which had the strongest performance in the qualifiers, in the knockout stage.

LYN doesn't have to do that, as they have the same group avoidance principle. Having suffered a lot in the group stage, they don't have to face fear in the knockout stage.

As luck would have it, after the two teams had drawn their lots, TES was actually facing the remaining unlucky team YG in the knockout group results that day.

While countless LPL viewers were shouting metaphysics, only Lin Shuyang, the head coach, knew the answer.

This is not metaphysics at all, it is clearly TES’s own curse.

"It seems like I will never be able to get over the stalemate with the Vietnamese team in this lifetime."

Although YG is not the Vietnam Wolf Warrior of GAM, in order to be on the safe side, fearing that the five escaping players would be affected by unknown metaphysical forces, and with the public opinion behind the operation of Topsports' parent company already mature, Lin Shuyang, after warming up, decided to take off his suit and put on TES uniform to personally compete in the knockout BO5.

The time has come to September 9th.

Early that morning, a piece of news shocked the entire LPL e-sports circle like an atomic bomb explosion. #Shocked, TES head coach is warming up and will replace Angel as the starting mid laner in the BO5 knockout round of the play-in round. #
No, it’s even more exaggerated. After this news came out, even viewers from other regions joined the discussion.

【! ! ! 】

【? ? ? ? 】

[No, I'm really excited. Master Guang really wants to come back and play in the game.]

[Oh my god, the head coach is really warming up! ]

[Wait, wait, what does the post say, replacing Angel? Isn't it replacing BeryL as support in the bottom lane? ]

[Master Guang, stop messing around. You'll be more stable if you play as a support.]

[It's fake at first glance. Not only did the head coach play in the game, but he played as a single player. 】

[Fake? Why don’t you check out the knockout match list released by TES this morning? ]

As soon as he finished speaking, screams like those of geese were heard everywhere.

Really, really?

TES Esports Club League of Legends Division: "Hello everyone who follows our TES Esports Club. After a series of preparations and adjustments, we are honored to announce that the TES team's lineup for the new season of the LPL has been confirmed."

"Here is the team list!"

"Top laner: GimGoon (Kim Hanquan)"

"Jungler: Tian (Gao Tianliang)"

"Mid lane: newborn (Lin Shuyang)"

“AD:able (Dai Zhichun)”

"Support: BeryL! (Zhao Qianxi)"

"As well as the coaching team and other management personnel of the LOL division!"

"Head coach: newborn (Lin Shuyang)"

"Assistant coach: 694 (He Xin)"

Below the team list is a brand new team promotional poster.

As soon as the news was released, the comment section of TES official Weibo exploded instantly.

"No buddy, are you serious?"

"This time the head coach really took off his suit and put on combat uniform..."

"You know what, Master Guang looks even more handsome in TES's black and gold uniform, right?"

"No, now is the time to focus on this, the S7 Finals Qualifiers Ticket War, it's such a joke!"

"A veteran who is nearly 30 years old doesn't want to be a coach and learn some bad fan culture to make a comeback. I'm afraid he will lose his ticket to the group stage and be ruined."

"YG must be laughing in the middle of the night. You, a retired mid laner, are playing against me in the World Championship. Your winning rate, which was less than 10% originally, is probably going to increase to 80% now."

“Is it a guaranteed win?”

"You're guaranteed to win!"

The comment section was extremely noisy, with the vast majority of comments questioning TES's mysterious operations.
