Although the lottery ceremony has nothing to do with WEA, it is not.

In the quarter-finals, the team that finishes from Group A will face the team from Group B of the quarter-finals, i.e. if IGA is placed in Group A and WEE is placed in Group B of the top two.

Then after qualifying for the IGA group stage, there will be a 50% chance of playing a national derby, and the civil war will start directly in the quarterfinals.

Although WEE and IGA are in competition, neither is a fool, and both sides want to bring this championship back home. If you really can't win it yourself, you'd rather have another team win it than have a foreigner take the championship.

Therefore, WEE still attaches great importance to the grouping of the group stage, and everyone followed IGA into the arena of the Galen Center.

This is the second time that WEA and IGA have visited the exhibition.

But Yun Luoyang came for the first time.

The first feeling that catches your eye is that it is big, compared to the competition venue of S1, which is like an Internet café team, and the fist after having Penguin Daddy giving money suddenly widened. Rented the best and largest stadium in the United States at the time, the Galen Center.

It was also the venue for the 1932 and 1984 Olympic Games.

The players are divided into two sides, and there is only one stage away from the audience, and even the audience can touch the players' computer desks as soon as they reach out.

In the center is a huge screen where players can turn their heads to see the game.

Seeing this scene, Yun Luoyang shook his head.

Riot is really playing a good hand as a bad hand.

The venue is so big, but the design of their site is terrible. There is no segregation between the players and the spectators, and the spectators and players can interact at any time. During the eight-hour pause in the match between WEE and CEU, the audience at the bottom handed them pizza and water.

And because there is no soundproof room, the audience under the stage and even the opposite player seat shouting, which can be heard on both sides. As a result, the audience can report the jungler position to the player above in English at any time and cheat.

The worst part is that the big screen is right behind the players, and when you turn your head, you can see a full-screen match scene without any fog of war, which would be strange if no one was looking at the screen.

To be honest, the audience handed pizza and water to the CEU, who made this their home stadium.

But the point report and peeping screen are a bit excessive, which seriously affects the balance of the game.

But Yun Luoyang has no choice, he is not a penguin father or the boss of Riot Company, and some things are not something he can decide. What's more, even if Daddy Penguin can't control Riot now, Western game companies still have that kind of high-mindedness when it comes to games.

I can have no money, I can be poorer than you, and I can even be bought by you. But when it comes to making games, we're professionals, so please don't point fingers.

This arrogant mentality makes Riot absolutely unresponsive when it comes to gaming.

The old prostitute looked up at the starry sky lighting design of the gymnasium, and smacked her lips: "Although this is the second time I've been here, this place is really big." It would be good if the League of Legends World Championship could be held once in our China, and the venue of the finals would be in the Bird's Nest. ”

Yun Luoyang's ears moved, and when he heard the words of the old prostitute, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, this day will not be too far away." As long as it is proved that only Chinese are strong in the game of League of Legends, and the whole world agrees that we are experts in this game, then the venue of the competition will definitely be placed in China, and the venue of the finals will also be placed in the Bird's Nest. ”

It's like why Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Spain, South Africa and even Mexico are not world-class powers, but they have all hosted the World Cup. Because they are strong in football, and no matter how well and gorgeously built the stadiums and stadiums in China are, people will not place them in China.

The draw ceremony began at 10 a.m.

Lots were drawn by Riot tournament staff, all watched from the table. Because there was no lounge at that time, and there would be no live broadcast on the spot, it can be said that it was carried out in secret.

The group stage will be divided into groups with 1 1st seed and 2 2nd seeds in each group. Teams from the same region cannot be placed in the same group.

On October 3, four teams will be selected for each group stage, and the tournament officials will draw lots. If the team is not in compliance with the rules (e.g. there are already teams from the same region in the group), they will be postponed in the order of ab.

That is, if two Korean teams are drawn in Group A, then one of the Korean teams will be placed in Group B.

Soon, the draw for Group A began.

The first is the SG team, a League of Legends team from Germany. The second is CLN, a local team in North America, and the third is IGA from China.

When the fourth draw came out, everyone in IGA clenched their fists.

It's an AF team.

This team had a conflict with them the day before yesterday, and when they met in the group stage, they must take revenge and beat them hard!

Yun Luoyang showed a smile that hid his merit and fame.

In fact, he has long known that IGA and AF will meet in the group stage, in the original history, IGA had a big advantage in the early stage, but it was overturned by M God and Shen's single belt. Throughout the game, the AF team was using stick language to foul IGA, and IGA not only suffered defeat, but was also insulted for no reason and lost face.

This is their revenge battle, and they have already prepared a big move for IGA, and they must let the South Korean team taste defeat in the group stage.

After the draw for Group A, there is no need for Group B, because the rest all went to Group B.

These teams are NS from South Korea, CEU from Europe, SJ from Vietnam, and DIG from North America. It is worth mentioning that WEA's bitter master CEU is actually CLN's European division team, and it is precisely because they are the second team of CLN, a North American team, that they can enjoy the home level treatment of spectators in the United States.

After the draw is over, the group names of the four seeded teams in the semi-finals will be announced.

The first is Group A, which are WEE and TPA.

When they saw this, everyone in WEA and IGA breathed a sigh of relief.

It's a sign-off.

Because Group A of the group stage will go to Group B of the quarterfinals after qualifying, that is to say, if IGA qualifies, the percentage will be divided into Group B and will not collide with WEA.

Now it depends on the question of who qualifies, there is still a draw after the group stage, and then it will be decided which team will qualify for Group B in the group stage against WEA. However, Yun Luoyang already knew the history in advance, and he was the first in the S2 World Championship, and he was unplugged by the CEU and sent back to his hometown, which was also quite miserable.

At least IGA also played the group stage.

The places in Group B of the quarterfinals are M5 and TM, and the faces of the IGA people who were originally happy instantly looked like bitter melons. Because M5 is currently No. 1 in the world, and TM is the No. 1 seed in North America. Some people may not be familiar with TM, but this team is a North American Phantom God who goes to Worlds every year.

Although the TM team in later generations is completely an experienced baby in the World Championship, it is a phantom god of the civil war in North America, and it has not qualified for the quarterfinals or even the group stage in the World Championship every year, and is known as the national power of North America.

But at this time, TM is also recognized as a strong team, ranking second in the world.

In the eyes of people at the time, Group B of the quarterfinals was basically the group of death. Placed in the current world No. 1 and world No. 2 groups, it's no wonder that everyone in IGA can be happy.
