Time flew by quickly. Ever since they had secured the spot for the third seed, everyone in IG had been working overtime, hoping to achieve the best results in the following qualifiers!
They had been looking forward to the S competition for too long.
Not to mention, this S competition was held in China, which was the first in history.
Whether it was the attention or popularity, it had risen to an exaggerated level.
Unlike the previous S tournaments, every LPL team wanted to participate in the S tournaments.
Unfortunately, there were only three spots.
Now that IG had obtained one of them, they naturally had to treasure it very much.
The principal even personally opened a group chat the next day and gave everyone a big red packet of 66666 yuan because IG had made it into the S round.
Even Duke and Ning, who were not playing, were there.
It could be seen how much importance IG placed on this event. One had to know that this was only the qualification to participate in the qualifiers.
If IG could directly send their No.1 or No.2 seed to the S7 group stage, then this Red Envelope would probably add a 6...
Time slowly passed in the tense preparation.
September 20th.
Three days before the opening of S7, the IG team packed up their things. The club's management team, the coach manager, and the starting substitutes took a plane to Wuhan1.
The first venue for this year's S competition was at the sports center.
Everyone from IG arrived at the hotel booked by the officials. They didn't even bother to rest that night and immediately began to meet up with some teams that had already arrived to start training.
Currently, the starting lineup in IG was very unstable.
The instability mainly came from the two positions in the field.
Because they had a lot of substitutes, Duke and TheShy alternated at the top lane, while Ning and Li Zeyu alternated at the jungler.
It was very cruel to attack whoever fought well, but it could also stimulate one's desire to survive.
On the other hand, the bottom lane, which was the weakest lane, had not shown any signs of movement. However, everyone knew that when Jackalawu was old enough, Western Emperor would step down and give up his position…
After playing more than a dozen training matches, IG realized that the qualifying teams did not seem to be very strong.
Ning even started killing in one match, laughing arrogantly,""Just this?"
"These stinky fish and rotten prawns can advance?"
Very disdainful.
This was indeed the case. Most of the teams participating in the global finals were the third seeds of the major divisions and the champions of some wild card divisions.
Even though they came from different countries, it was hard to compare their playstyle and tactics with the LPL.
However, in e-sports, everything was hard to say. Everything was filled with the possibility of an upset.
Just like that, three days passed quickly.
September 23rd.
It was the opening day of the 2017 global finals.
Today, S7 would officially begin.
These few days, W Han had been particularly lively. Li Zeyu had been staying in the hotel to train, but he heard that the ticket for the S7 qualifiers, a normal outer ticket, had already been sold for tens of thousands of dollars.
And this was just an ordinary seat. If he wanted a better ticket, the highest price would be more than 100,000 yuan…
Just by looking at the ticket price, one could tell how many people were paying attention to S7.
As the team members 'phones had been confiscated in the past few days, no one knew what was going on outside.
However, it could be expected that the fans outside and the audience from all over the world could not wait to watch the game.
"Dress up. We're going to get a good start today!!”
Su Xiaoluo was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. She called out and led all the IG members who were already fully prepared to go to the venue!
At this moment, the representatives of China, such as the Chinese team, had not even arrived in Shanghai yet.
Because there was still more than half a month before the start of the group competition.
They had ample time to prepare, but IG did not. After IG finished the bubble competition, they did not even have a moment to catch their breath before they stepped onto the battlefield again.
This was the treatment of the third seed. There was no other way.
There was very little time left for IG, so although everyone was full of confidence in the training match, they were still a little weak when it came to the competition...
After all, it had been two years since the last S competition.
To be more specific, other than the broiler players, it was the first time for everyone else to participate in an S match…
This was awkward.
He had no experience in international competitions.
Although the qualifying round was not very popular, and many people who were not familiar with the rules of the S competition did not pay attention to this stage, it was still a world competition. The opponents they faced were the champions of various countries that they had never fought before.
Perhaps it was because they were fighting on home soil this year, the officials had specially arranged for IG to be a member of the opening match.
Today's first match was the battlefield of IG!
