"No kills, no dragons, no towers, no kills. He was beaten like a primary school student when he started Q."
"This should be the match with the biggest gap in this world championship. It's really embarrassing."
"Now it's up to TPA. I hope they can fight back and try to beat LG.G."
"Forget it, how can it be possible? LG.G is not that easy to deal with. I just hope TPA doesn't get beaten so badly."
"Please don't let others' ambitions be boosted and your own prestige be ruined, okay? LG.G is only the second seed, and we TPA are the first seed."
After all, they were last year's world champions. LG.S's two consecutive victories with overwhelming force caused quite a stir in the League of Legends circles at home and abroad, especially on the Taiwan Island Forum ptt, which was full of complaints.
This time, both teams from the Southeast Asia region competing in the S game are from Taiwan. As the dominant team in the region, Taiwan still had high expectations for its own team. However, they ran into a hard rock as soon as they went out and were beaten black and blue. Naturally, it was difficult for them to accept it. No wonder the forum was full of complaints.
In the last wave, TPA wanted to fight LG.G with all their might, but LG.G didn't even give them the chance and just pulled away. As the fight went on, TPA inexplicably lost two members, and then they took advantage of the situation and flattened TPA's base in one wave.
There weren't many kills. The only ones were when TPA's jungler wanted to gank but was ambushed by Conti.
"Who on earth can break their undefeated record? Are we just going to let them keep winning like this? Keep winning until they become the champions?"
However, although OMG lost this game, the content of the game was extremely tense. OMG had a certain advantage in the early stage, but SSB showed its resilience, withstood the strong impact of the OMG team, and dragged the game to the late stage. In the end, SSB won the game with the advantage of the late lineup and excellent operation.
Or maybe more people suddenly gathered on the opposite side and another little dragon dropped.
This kind of public opinion finally subsided until the afternoon of the fourth day, because LPL finally suffered its first defeat.
As the first round of the group stage is about to end, LPL's unbeaten streak is still intact. Everyone can't help but tremble when they see such a horrible record.
But the fantasy was soon shattered by reality. On the day after LG.S defeated AHQ, TPA met LG.G, and then... nothing happened.
However, for the LPL teams, this is just the beginning.
Throughout the whole game, I didn't fight twice, but then inexplicably, my crystal exploded.
OMG, on the other hand, was slightly inferior as they still had one game left to play in the first round, with two wins and no losses, tied with Samsung Blue for first place in the group.
"That's true. Since LG.S won the championship last year, we should have expected that the champion of every competition would not belong to LPL. Looking at OMG's performance, I guess LPL can win a championship in other regions even if they send a mid-level team."
Maybe he was beaten badly and forced to go home, and suddenly a tower was lost.
LG.S has three wins and no losses, firmly at the top of the group. LG.G also has three wins and no losses. In fact, due to the strength of the teams in the same group, they won more easily than LG.S.
In the following games, the three LPL teams continued their winning streak since the start of the season.
Although LG.G was not as brutal as LG.S, the Wan Chai audience who watched the entire game still felt uncomfortable.
When they saw their own base explode, everyone in TPA was stunned.
It was not until the end of the third day that everyone realized that the three teams from the LPL region had not lost a single game so far.
Being led by others all the time and not knowing how they lost made the TPA members feel ashamed as if their IQ had been humiliated, which was even more uncomfortable than being beaten up.
On the third day of the group stage, LPL's third seed OMG team played its first game against another European powerhouse in the group, FNC.
"How terrifying! I haven't lost yet. This record is too terrifying."
Fortunately, they lost to LG.S, and the team that lost was AHQ, the second seed. The Wanzai players are still very confident in their number one seed TPA, and some even expect them to beat LG.G.
"Is this the strongest division? Love it."
No, it’s more torturous.
If LG.S's fight against AHQ is a set of random sword techniques that can kill you directly, then LG.G's fight against TPA is like Lingchi, where a slow knife cuts the flesh. Although it is not fast, it is equally torturous.
Perhaps inspired by the overall atmosphere of LPL, OMG performed exceptionally bravely. Although FNC also performed tenaciously, they were still defeated by OMG like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.
Regarding this game, the only feeling of TPA and their supporters is frustration and discomfort, which is even more uncomfortable than being beaten badly.
After OMG defeated FNC, the next match was between the two strongest teams in Group A, LG.S and Samsung White from the Korean region. Samsung White had the same record as LG.S, two wins and one loss. Both teams in the group won all their games. And they all won the opponents in a crushing manner. This is also one of the teams with the highest chance of winning the championship in this World Championship. Facing these two teams, some people joked that the teams in the group were all here to warm up for them.
In this way, TPA didn't lose much each time, but the number of times was very frequent. After accumulating like this, before they knew it, all three lanes of TPA were pushed to the high ground, and LG.G's advantage accumulated to a terrifying level.
But even so, facing the strong performance of SSW (Samsung White), LG.S still won the final victory smoothly. Although there were some minor setbacks in the middle, LG.S still won the victory with its superior operation and management.
"Look at LMQ, isn't that a good example? They almost won the North American championship."
"What? We are both world champions. Does that mean your champion is better than mine?" Although they were not confident, the Wan Chai people still comforted themselves in this way.
“Well, even though it was the No. 1 seed playing against the No. 3 seed, we still won.
Regardless of how the game went, OMG's defeat finally made the tense mood of other regions relax a little, because if LPL continued to win like this, the teams and audiences in other regions would lose confidence in continuing the competition.
Now that we have lost the first round, there is a possibility that we will lose the second round.
"Oh, is this really possible?"
Some people sighed because they found that even at the end of the game, the economic gap between the two sides was still the same, and even the number of kills was slightly ahead for OMG.
