Chapter 174 Prologue

"Do you probably know all the opponents in Group B?" Mingluo asked.

Lin Han replied: "It's almost the same. Lightning Wolf, C9, and Samsung are all old teams, and I know all the players."

The Lightning Wolf Team, the No. 1 seed team in the LMS region, has maintained a top spot in the league since 2015.

Until Lin Han traveled through time, the FW team even dominated the entire LMS league in the next few seasons, and was in a far leading position. The strength was stronger than the other teams below.

That is, it was the first time I saw the clues this year.

Samsung team, the third seed of South Korea LCK.

The former old "Samsung Gemini", Samsung White and Samsung Blue, were the legends of South Korea in S4 that year, and were unparalleled around the world. They even blocked the Great Demon and his SKT in China, preventing them from entering the World Championship.

In the end, Samsung White won the world championship in S4 and created the dynasty of that year.

In the S5 season, two three-star teams announced their disbandment due to some reasons. A total of ten people came to China and were scattered among the major teams in the LPL. Some of them shine, and some of them fell silent.

The Samsung team was then reorganized, and after constant personnel replacement, it was not until S6 that their members were stabilized.

Top laner Cuvee, jungler An Ambition, mid laner Crown, ADC Ruler, and auxiliary Corejj.

And this lineup continued until later S8.

According to the original trajectory, SSG and the others won the runner-up in S6 this year and won the world championship in S7.

Therefore, it is also the biggest rival of Lin Han's team in the group.

Team C9, the third seed in the North American LCS division.

There are also many interesting things about this team.

The former leader of Hai's midfielder, the famous scene is a classic scene. I believe that old players who are following the event should still remember it freshly.

Now Hai's leader no longer serves as the mid laner, but has become a substitute of Jensen.

C9's top laner Impact, a former SKT member, was also the world champion top laner of S3. His playing style is relatively comprehensive and balanced. He can not only be a blue-collar worker to resist pressure, but also bear Carrey.

ADC's Sneaky, a veteran of the team and an old player in the LOL professional competition, is not only excellent in strength, but also has been able to maintain a very high competitive level and condition on the field for many years, which is very rare.

Moreover, this contestant is also a big shot in women's clothing...

Although the C9 team did not perform well in the LCS League, they performed bravely in the World Championship. Since S3 and later S8, they have not missed the World Championship every year, and in most years they have been able to break through the group stage and enter the quarterfinals, becoming the last hope for the North American division.

What Lin Han didn't know was that on the afternoon of his time travel back, C9 defeated AFS, the second seed from South Korea LCK, in the quarterfinals of S8, and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

In general, there is not a single weak team in the other three teams in Group B.

Nowadays, most voices on the Internet, from China and even to the whole world, believe that the chance of SSR qualifying is too slim...

"You must pay attention, they are all very strong...you..." There was a hint of worry in it from Ming Luo's voice.

Although she hopes that SSR can successfully win the deterrent game and advance successfully, from an objective perspective, her views are similar to those of others, and the situation of SSR qualifying is quite unoptimistic.

"Why are you in a hurry? Are you still going to have so many days? Take your time." Lin Han said relaxedly, and said, "I'm not panicked at all."

“…”

Mingluo was speechless. Can he be so optimistic?

"You have to go to this World Championship, right?" Lin Han asked.

"Yes." Ming Luo replied, "This is also my first time explaining a world-class League of Legends game."

Faced with large-scale events like this, even she felt a lot of pressure, let alone those professional players.

"Yes, come on!"

"Uh-huh......"

Mingluo responded twice, and something was wrong: "Ah? Why did you tell me to come on?"

"I encourage you, I'm afraid you'll be nervous at that time, and make crazy mistakes during the commentary, that's not good." Lin Han said with a smile.

"...You'd better worry about yourself first." Ming Luo was ashamed.

Lin Han said: "I'm OK at any time."

“…”

The two discussed the topic of the competition again. It was not too late and it was time to take a break.

"Come on, don't let go."

"It's a must!"

......

The intense training life is still continuing, and time passes quickly.

The game is approaching.

All SSR staff worked harder and showed twelve points of enthusiasm to train and prepare for the battle.

No one slacked off.

Lin Han has a bad appetite recently, and he only eats a little symbolically every day.

There is no way, I really can't eat it, and I can't swallow it even if I force myself to swallow it.

As the captain, he is under much more pressure than others, and he is indeed too tired.

The system assigned him many tasks, allowing him to practice various heroes in qualifying and practice modes, constantly broadening his hero pool and improving his proficiency.

And like his teammates, he has training matches to play almost every day.

Every now and then, I often take some time at night. The team members, including coaches and other staff, gather together to discuss some issues related to the game and tactics.

This was also what Lin Han asked to organize.

In addition to the team's training, they also have the shooting tasks of the official LPL League and the official World Championship promotional video of Riot Company.

During these days, official staff would come to the base to shoot some daily scenes and make some interviews with each of their team members.

The most famous thing is that Riot Company officially filmed a League of Legends documentary called "Legend Zhengsheng". There are many episodes in total. Then the official came to visit and Lin Han needed to participate in the shooting of some of the middle clips.

Such work is very tedious and tiring, which means that Lin Han’s burden is once again increased.

To be honest, Lin Han didn't want to participate.

However, he could understand that if LOL's professional competitions continue to develop, it would require a commercial model like this.

So Lin Han didn't complain about this and obeyed the official arrangements.

It is worth mentioning that in a certain episode of "Legend Zhengsheng", the protagonist is Revolta, the jungler of the wild card team INTZ, who once publicly stated that he is a fan of the factory director.

It just so happened that this World Championship, EDG and INTZ were in the same group.

Revolta said that he looked forward to the fight with his idol in the group stage.

So the factory director also formally responded in the documentary, saying that he felt very happy and honored to have such fans abroad, and he also looked forward to meeting the other party on the field.

......

At the same time, all visa procedures related to going abroad for everyone in the SSR team are completed and everything is ready.

In this way, soon, there were still a few days before the group stage started.

The SSR club set out four days in advance so that the players can adapt to the environment there first, adjust their respective states, and adjust their biological clock in reverse time difference. This is all very necessary.

Taking an international flight, all SSR members arrived in San Francisco in about 11 hours.
