Wa: It’s broken, I’ve become a cutting monster!
Chapter 398 The first round of the knockout round!
"Hello, hello? Can you hear me, Su Shen?" The sweet voice of Flaxseed came out from the ts. Even though he had heard it many times in real life, Su Di felt his whole body go numb when he heard it!
"I can hear you. Long time no see, Yaya!" Su Di said in a low voice.
"It's been a long time since we last met~ Are you kidding me, Su Shen? If I'm not mistaken, you two just met a few days ago, right?"
This sentence was said by Lizhi with a slightly sarcastic tone.
"Cough cough......"
"Don't worry about these details. By the way, have you entered the game? I have already built the room."
"It's in, it's in!"
Goose Duck Kill, a casual and entertaining werewolf killing game. Su Shen and his friends often play it together, but Su Shen's superstitious personality makes it easy for him to suffer in this game.
There were also some of Su Shen’s friends playing together, mostly men.
As soon as they entered the game, everyone started to greet each other, and Lizhi couldn't help but ask about Shan Anyang's situation.
"Su Shen, is Dan still in the ranking now?"
Su Di turned his head to look in the direction of Shan Anyang, and saw that he was still playing the game seriously, so he said, "It seems that he is still in the ranking. We have been very busy recently..."
Flaxseed also spoke at the right time: "It's really hard work, Su Shen, you guys in the quarterfinals should also do your best!"
Su Di thought that it didn't matter if I cheered or something, the competition had nothing to do with me! But he still politely replied: OK.
The first round of the knockout rounds started on the 14th, which was a three-day break. During this period, each team was intensively training against their opponents. The disadvantages of the second seeds who made it to the loser group were revealed.
Because many second seeds have revealed some of their trump cards in the loser group, which has a great impact on the subsequent games. Not to mention making new lineups based on their trump cards, but there will definitely be some tactics to target them.
The first day of the elimination rounds, the episode that Korean audiences least liked to watch when they were kids!
On this day, the first thing that happened was a performance to kick off the elimination match in the stadium. Several local girl groups took turns to jump up and down. I have to say that South Korea is really good in this regard. Just the outfits of the girl groups have already made the players in the audience start to suppress their guns!
There were many female spectators at Valorant's games, and they naturally expressed disdain for this. What was so good about a group of flirtatious dancers? The men who came to watch the game with their girlfriends didn't even dare to take pictures at this time!
The only local team, DRX, faced off against Sen who made it to the loser group! Even though there are many talented young players in DRX, one of them, Flashback, was even praised in Korea as a man who was on par with the newly debuted Shan Anyang!
As a sentry, Flashback's data once crushed most teams' sentries. The extremely high headshot rate and kills were the key to DRX's success in the Pacific Division. But even so, facing Sen's recent surge in form, the outside media is not optimistic about DRX.
The first game will start soon, with DRX facing the second seed sen!
Map bans: Map 1 shows Sunset City, a map that DRX is least good at. DRX chose the Hermitage, which was the strongest map for DRX in the league. However, after the World Championship, they were beaten badly by the reckless team KRU, which made DRX lose confidence!
I don't know if I'm good at the Hermitage! How can a new team beat me like this? I was almost shut out. Isn't that scary? As a result, DRX banned the Hermitage when facing FNC in the winner's bracket final.
It was brought out again as a self-selected map today, and I believe DRX’s mentality and tactics have changed.
In the decisive map, DRX gave the map to Senhandong Port, so they should have their own backup plan.
Figure 1: Sunset City, Sen's lineup changed suddenly! Instead of using the same Ryze as before, he switched to Neon! Sen's temporary change caught DRX off guard, mainly because Zekken had never used Neon in Sunset City before. This change definitely meant a change in Sen's tactics. The unknown is the source of all fear!
But the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, so DRX had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight. Anyway, their Sunset City was not strong, so it didn't matter what lineup Sen used.
For sen, what he has to do in this World Championship is to find his former self, return to the self who won the championship in Madrid!
But for DRX, they carry the glory of the entire Pacific Division on their shoulders, and they are playing in their home court. If they lose in the quarterfinals, won’t the door of the stadium be blocked by trucks?
To everyone's surprise, this Sunset City game was not one-sided. Instead, DRX, which kept changing its lineup and constantly looking for the best solution for Sunset City, performed well and once dragged SEN into overtime!
But in the end, Sen was stronger and scored two points in overtime to end the game 15:13.
The performance of the two Neons can be described as a world of difference. As a temporary change of sen, zekken's Neon had the highest kills of the game with 27, while DRX's buzz had 18/22. A complete Neon difference!
Now we come to the second map, the Hermitage, which is DRX's self-selected map. If we only look at DRX's performance in the Hermitage in this world championship, it can be said to be very poor. They even banned it themselves in the middle of the game. However, throughout the second stage, DRX had an 80% win rate in the Hermitage!
This reflects that the styles of each major region are completely different. DRX's lineup may be dominant in the Pacific Division, but when it comes to the World Championship, facing teams from other regions with completely different styles, playing methods and tactics, DRX will be overwhelmed.
But this time DRX has regained its confidence and wants to prove itself as a hidden monastery again!
The result... was a 13:8 defeat by Sen! The whole team was almost suppressed, and none of the five players had more than 20 kills.
The audience was completely silent. It was somewhat embarrassing that the last local team was sent back to the loser group by the second seed of the group on the first day of the quarterfinals.
It really proves the saying, the reason you rank second is not because your strength is far superior to everyone else except the first, but because you met the first later, so you rank second!
DRX gives people such a feeling. They qualified as the first in the group only because they encountered newcomer kru and fnc who had been performing poorly in major competitions. If they really encounter a tough opponent, they will be shattered at the first touch!
