After the lottery results came out, the SSR base suddenly became quiet.

In their group, in addition to their team, the other three teams are: the third-seeded Samsung team in the Korean LCK competition area, the No. 1 seed Lightning Wolf team in the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan LMS competition area, and the third-seeded C9 team in the North American competition area.

On the surface, one No. 1 seed and three No. 3 seeds have not had that much competitive pressure and the qualifying situation is good.

But in fact, who would regard the Samsung team as the third seed?

Since S3, the LCK teams have been the leader in the S series every year. In the past few years, there are still LPL teams who can reach the finals and fight against it.

Last year, the overall decline of LPL, and the finals turned into a civil war between South Korea's LCK!

This year's MSI mid-season Invitational Tournament was also won by SKT team.

It can be said that the three teams of LCK are the "leading brothers" of each group.

There is another thing they don’t know, but Lin Han came back from time to time and knew clearly that the Samsung team is the runner-up in this year’s S competition!

In addition, there are strong teams like the Lightning Wolf, and the future of the group stage is full of difficulties.

Everyone didn't speak, fell into deep thought...

After a while.

“How to say it…”

Coach Zhou first spoke: "I think the result of this lottery is pretty good for us... What do you think?"

Hao Ren nodded: "I think it's okay, it's just right...at least, it's better than I expected."

Han Xin shrugged helplessly: "At least I didn't meet ROX and SKT. If you want to fight SSG... I think I still have a chance."

Qin Tianyu said: "Tan you panic. No matter which one it is, you'll finish it! I'm not timid at all."

Lin Han said: "You'd better be a little timid, okay? I'm afraid you can't stand it if you play in the World Championship now."

“…”

Everyone laughed.

"But to be honest, EDG draws really a good sign!"

Hao Ren sighed: "AHQ, H2K and a wild card team, is this surely the first in the group qualifying?"

"Indeed, there is still a gap in strength between these other three teams and EDG." Han Xin also agreed.

After hearing this, Lin Han shook his head.

Qin Tianyu thought for a while and said, "By the way, this INTZ jungler seems to be like you, and they are all fans of the factory director!"

Han Xin said: "What's so strange about this? The piglets in our factory are all over the world, it's normal."

"If you have this group of RNG, it feels OK."

Qin Tianyu said: "SKT, TS-M and SPY, it seems that only SKT is more difficult to fight, and the other two feel that RNG is not a big problem."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

We sat together and chatted for a while, time passed quickly. It was almost four o'clock in the evening and we were a little sleepy, so everyone went back to their room to rest.

Lin Han was lying on the bed, with many thoughts in his mind, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.

I believe it is not just him, but tonight will also be a sleepless night for many people...

......

After the lottery results came out, a huge uproar was soon caused on the Internet.

Weibo, forum, post bar and other e-sports sectors have begun to be hotly discussed.

Most of the statements generally believe that SSR has a difficult future.

As a veteran strong team of LMS, the FW team is almost dominant in their competition area.

They won the semi-finals in this year's MSI and double-killed SKT in the group stage, and were known as the "anti-Korean Qihe".

Across the world, some people believe that their team is one of the strong contenders in the championship except South Korea.

Needless to say, the Samsung team is the only North American No. 3 seed in their group, C9, which is the North American No. 3 seed, which is weak in the eyes of the public.

However, in the four teams in the group, only two can qualify, so for SSR, it can be said to be the real "death group".

It's too difficult to break through the group stage.

On the other hand, the situation is much more optimistic about the other two LPL teams.

Although the D group where RNG is located has a behemoth like SKT, the other two are TSMs of North American LCS and the other is the third seed SPY of Europe.

In everyone's opinion, RNG's pressure on these two teams is obviously much less.

Even if you can't beat SKT, there shouldn't be much problem with qualifying for the second in the group.

As for EDG, it's even more comfortable.

Not only are there no Korean teams in it, but the other teams are very average in strength.

It is similar to the SSR players, and netizens basically agree that EDG is in an absolute leading position in Group C.

H2K, the second seed of European LCS, although there is a "legendary mid laner" Ryu from South Korea in the team, but overall, it can only be said that it is not very good.

AHQ, the second seed of LMS, has communication with EDG. The two teams often train together, and communicate and learn from each other from the team members to the management.

Of course, AHQ generally has more “seeking scriptures”, and EDG is much stronger in terms of strength, and the overall winning odds are much greater.

As for another wild card team, INTZ, there is no need to worry. In everyone's opinion, most of the time, wild card teams are used to give away points.

To sum up, EDG basically stabilized the first qualifying team.

Therefore, for this year's LPL format, the audience currently holds the attitude of "protecting two and competing three". They believe that RNG and EDG qualify stably, and look forward to SSR's efforts to fight to break through the siege.

Overall, the situation is still relatively optimistic.

......

No matter what the sound is outside, all SSR staff are now focusing on training.

There are nearly twenty days left, and it is not short to say that it is enough, and it is not too abundant. Preparing for the World Championship, sufficient training is essential.

After discussing with the coach, Lin Han formulated a rigorous training plan.

From morning to night, from meals and sleep to training, there are corresponding arrangements at each time, requiring each team member to strictly follow the prescribed time.

During training, any form of entertainment is prohibited.

There are no reward and punishment measures, everything depends entirely on conscious supervision and mutual supervision between members.

Maybe it's a bit harsh, but there's no room for negotiation.

On this point, all SSR staff reached a consensus and expressed their agreement, and no one had any objections.

This is enlightenment.

......

On that day, Lin Han found Coach Zhou and discussed with him: "Coach, go find EDG and have an appointment with them for training matches."

Lin Han knew that Coach Zhou had connections with the EDG team and could get online.

An important purpose of playing training matches is to check for omissions and make up for shortcomings through the battle with opponents, and improve your tactical system and team cooperation.

This is also the point that their team needs to strengthen at present.

Therefore, the opponents in the training match are particularly critical.

As the top team in China, EDG is also the number one seed of LPL. There is no doubt that playing training matches with them is the best choice at present.

Coach Zhou nodded: "Okay, no problem, you can train with peace of mind, so leave these questions to me."
