Time came to the third day of the quarterfinals.
nine in the morning.
The Pullman venue once again ushered in a lively scene of lively and noisy people. The restless discussions in the auditorium were constantly exciting. The live players and audience who came to the competition venue today were obviously more emotional than the previous two days.
There is no reason for him.
Just because today's BO5 match is a confrontation between SSK and Season.
A life-or-death showdown between the top seeds in Korea and North America!
The two champions and runners-up teams that both reached the finals last year, but this year they met in the quarter-finals so unfortunately. .
You know, for these two teams, they have almost never stopped in the top eight in the previous finals.
But this year—
Among the two teams, one is destined to usher in the bottom of their careers.
"There's one more thing that everyone here needs to pay attention to—"
"That is, this year's finals are also the first time for the two major regions in Korea and North America to appear. The schedule has only reached the quarter-finals stage, but there is only one representative team left in each of the two regions. ."
On the official commentary stage at the scene, a bearded commentator from Europe spoke in such an exciting tone:
"This is a situation that has never happened before in the past years..."
"So today's BO5 match in this group is not only for the two teams to fight for a place in the semifinals, but also represents the final dignity of their respective divisions!"
"No matter which side loses, the division it represents will also announce that it will be completely lost in the journey of this finals!"
"This is a battle of dignity between the division and the division!"
"Either party... has an irreversible reason!"
There were also screams and cheers in the audience off the field with the passionate analysis of the live commentary. There were support players from the Korean and North American divisions, and the audience was desperately waving cheering sticks and light boards for the SSK and Season teams. Cheer on.
The atmosphere is getting hotter and hotter.
The respective head coaches of the two teams that are about to take the stage today also accepted interviews from many e-sports media reporters on the spot.
When asked about his views on today's matchup, the head coach of Season Club waved his hand and replied with a very powerful answer:
"Our goal for Season has always been the world championship."
"No matter what kind of opponents stand in front of us, we have the confidence to defeat them!"
In contrast, the head coach of SSK appeared condensed when he answered, and the answer he gave was quite concise, as if he didn't want to talk about it:
"I believe in our SSK players."
Comparing the two, it seems that before the start of the game, the momentum of the two teams has been vaguely distinguished.
In the front row of the audience, the players and players of other teams and clubs who were also watching the game exchanged glances with each other, but did not continue to talk as much as before.
Because at this time... there is no need to talk about it anymore.
On the side of everyone in the LPL division, Huangxue Yege took a deep breath and looked at the stage:
"Next-"
"Look at it."
…
With the thunderous cheers and screams that suddenly sounded in the audience, the players and players of the two teams of SSK and Season took the stage.
They took their seats in front of the computer.
In the competition room where Team Season was located, Autumn, the captain, looked at the other four members of his own team beside him, his eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke slowly:
"Today we are facing the strongest team in the world."
Just this sentence made the other four members of Season look subconsciously awe-inspiring.
After pausing for a while, Autumn continued calmly:
"But what we are facing is also the weakest moment for this team."
"So, today is our best chance."
Looking at several of his teammates in front of him again, the auxiliary captain of the Season team said the last sentence:
"If you have an opportunity, then you shouldn't miss it. That's what we've always done at Season."
"and-"
"It's time for us to win against them."
The other four main players of the Season team were silent.
After a moment.
The four of them clung to their promises!
At the same time, on the opposite side of the SSK team competition room, it was still the same as usual. Mafa, the vice captain, spoke to several fellow teammates to make the final arrangements and encouragement.
But this time it was different.
Because he didn't say anything directly to Cube, Wolf or Ray, Mafa's gaze fell directly on his own captain:
"You just calm down and play at the rhythm you want."
"Today, leave it to us."
It seemed to be just an ordinary sentence, and the tone seemed to be understated.
But when one considers that today's opponent will be the most intractable and formidable formidable opponent like Season, the promise represented in these words has an even more special weight.
Because in fact, even if it is their SSK, facing such an opponent, in the current situation, if you ask yourself, there is not really enough confidence in the calculation.
But even so-
But it still did not hinder Mafa's calmness and calmness when he made this commitment to his mid lane captain, as well as his steady and unchanging determination.
Cube, Wolf and Ray on the side also nodded solemnly.
They don't need to say much at this moment, Mafa's words represent the thoughts and intentions of all of them. Usually, they rely on their captain to shield them from the wind and rain... So today, it is their turn to guard the In front of his own captain.
and.
to be honest.
The reason why their SSK team is the strongest in the world is never just because they have the captain of the first of the four emperors in the mid lane position.
It is because of each of them in the other four positions, even if they are taken out alone, they are enough to stun the arena and stand on their own.
Then when the four of them are completely determined to burst into a 100% state level...
Looking at the world, who are you afraid of
Even if the opponent is the Season team, the North American giant powerhouse with the god of support in the world—
What is it
Looking up at the four companions in front of him, Han Shihao was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.
No more words needed.
Because there is no need to be grateful.
Also because of enough trust.
More because... it doesn't necessarily need to.
Perhaps now he is indeed in an embarrassing and complicated situation that is difficult to describe, but this does not mean that he, the mid-single captain of SSK, can't really make a difference in today's game.
(and more importantly—)
Han Shihao's eyes fell, and his eyes flickered slightly, but gradually became brighter. Every night from the start of the finals to now, the scenes of the experience of fighting against someone in the empty and silent training room were all played upside down in his mind in an instant. back.
Efforts and pursuits during this period were not in vain.
He might—
I have found some feeling.
At exactly 9:15 in the morning, accompanied by the passionate announcement of the live commentator on the commentary stage, as well as the boiling cheers in the entire competition venue.
The third group of BO5 quarterfinals matches.
go to war.
