Chapter 1033 EDG vs IG, the Focus Match
"Holy crap, look at DMO's bot lane players, their skill is incredible! Keep in mind, they were under heavy pressure from IG, yet they still managed to farm steadily, their skills are simply amazing!"
"Sigh, although the bot lane players did perform well, it wasn't a big deal. Look at the gap between their top, mid, and jungle and IG, it's not just a little bit. Relying solely on the Xayah and Rakan duo performing well can't solve all the problems, after all, a game is a team effort."
"That's right, IG's Corki is incredibly skilled, it's like they're using cheat codes on the field, they're killing their opponents without leaving a trace, they're completely on a killing spree!"
"It's over, the Baron is gone. Judging from the current situation, things are not looking good for DMO."
However, DMO is a team that has only recently been promoted from LDL to LPL, and the team is still in the process of integrating into its roster.
This time, they are facing IG, who are at full strength and in excellent form.
Based on the comparison of the two sides' strengths on paper, it is indeed difficult to believe that DMO has any chance of winning the match.
To put it bluntly, but it's true, IG's mid-laner Rookie's salary might be higher than the combined salaries of the entire DMO team. This reflects the difference in resource investment between the two teams.
When the second game started, IG, seemingly having regained their peak form, showed no mercy whatsoever.
In just over twenty minutes, IG advanced unimpeded, easily destroying DMO's base and ultimately winning the match 2-0 without any suspense.
This opening match, which was originally highly anticipated and watched by everyone, turned into a one-sided massacre.
If we have to find a reason, we can only say that there seems to be something unreasonable in the official arrangement of the competition schedule.
Or you could say that DMO was just incredibly unlucky?
"and many more."
After watching the match, Doinb seemed to suddenly remember something extremely important and exclaimed loudly, "Our opponent in the first match was also DMO, wasn't it?"
The moment those words were spoken, the entire lounge fell into such silence that you could hear a pin drop, as if time itself had frozen.
After everyone came to their senses, Flandre and the others' expressions became very subtle and strange.
"It really is."
It's worth noting that DMO was just ruthlessly crushed by IG, and only two days later, they're facing another formidable opponent, EDG. From any perspective, this schedule is utterly absurd.
DMO seems to have been deliberately set up as cannon fodder, as if they were specifically designed to allow strong teams to easily rack up points.
If you said this wasn't a deliberate arrangement by the authorities, probably no one would believe it!
"Hey, who cares?" Abu stood up and enthusiastically called out to everyone, "Let's all pack our things, we're getting ready to go back!"
Upon hearing this, the people in the room looked at each other, then, after a moment, they all stood up one after another.
"Aren't you going to watch it? Isn't there still an exciting match between FPX and JDG later?" one of them asked doubtfully.
"That match still has a full half hour before it starts, so watching the live stream will have the same effect," Abu explained.
"Okay, let's go then, gogogo~!" someone echoed.
"Oh right, I almost forgot to mention, we have a scrim match scheduled with RNG today, so everyone should get ready in advance," Abu suddenly added.
"Huh?" Everyone couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"What do you mean 'ah'? Don't let it go wrong when you play DMO. That would be really awful," Abu said irritably.
“That makes sense.” Someone nodded in agreement.
And so, the lively and grand opening ceremony of the Summer Tournament came to a complete end.
However, for all the teams in the LPL, this undoubtedly means that their leisurely and relaxed time has come to an end.
From this moment forward, aside from a few rest days, there will be a tight schedule of matches almost every day. Each team will give their all in this challenging yet rewarding summer season, striving for the highest honor and their dreams!
In the first week, EDG's only match was against DMO.
Without a doubt, this was yet another massacre with no suspense whatsoever.
If EDG were still in their previous form, DMO might have had a slight chance of winning a match.
Unfortunately, since returning from MSI, all members of EDG seem to have been injected with adrenaline, and everyone's training time has been increased dramatically.
They're working so hard so that they can get back to their peak form as soon as possible!
As for DMO, the first target EDG used to "sacrifice" themselves to regain their form, their fate was obviously quite tragic.
This best-of-three (BO3) match consists of two games.
In both matches combined, DMO didn't even last 50 minutes!
The entire match was characterized by violence and gore, with both sides engaging in intense fights and decisive tower dives. The pace of the game was so fast that it kept viewers on the edge of their seats!
Such a thrilling match sent many viewers' adrenaline soaring, prompting them to exclaim that the familiar, dominant EDG is finally back!
……
In the second week, the highly anticipated match between EDG and IG on the esports stage, like a grand storm about to erupt, quickly unfolded, drawing back the curtain on a thrilling spectacle.
EDG, who had the priority to choose sides, made a stark difference in their choices during this competition compared to the MSI period.
During the MSI tournament, the EDG team clearly preferred to play on the red side.
However, this time, they resolutely chose the blue side.
The renowned commentators Wawa and Miller, who were responsible for providing commentary on the match, offered professional analysis.
They speculated that the EDG team probably hoped to take advantage of the blue side's priority in choosing sides to maximize their chances of acquiring heroes that are currently strong in the meta during the hero selection phase.
After all, compared to other teams, EDG has a relatively short time to understand the current version, and they are making up for this deficiency in this way.
However, the commentators' statements cannot be simply judged as entirely correct or incorrect.
Just as the match reached the hero selection phase, people saw that EDG's first pick instantly chose the hero Yuumi without any hesitation.
IG seemed to have anticipated EDG's decision.
In terms of banning heroes in this match, IG's choices were relatively conventional. The heroes they banned were basically those that EDG had used quite well in the previous version.
However, in reality, the hero Yuumi has been buffed with each game update.
Furthermore, the combination of Garen and Yuumi has shown considerable effectiveness in the daily training sessions between the teams, which may be an important factor in EDG's decision.
