Chapter 391: An insult incident

The domestic teams were all dumbfounded. How could this happen?

In fact, there were training tournaments between domestic teams, but not as often. This was because the domestic teams would also have appropriate training tournaments with foreign teams, so the time was relatively tight.

Moreover, the domestic teams didn’t think too much about it and didn’t share their own routines and tactics.

After all, these strategies might be used in the semi-finals and finals in the future. If he gave them to his brother team, they would use them in the group stage. Wouldn’t that mean that he would have one less strategy to use?

Therefore, while they were surprised, the domestic teams were also shocked by the “unity” between the Korea teams.

Chen Zhao was not surprised by this.

The clubs and players in this world didn’t know how the Korea teams worked, but Chen Mo did. If the Korea team was to be described in one sentence, it would be that they would do anything to win. The championship was more important than anything else.

It wasn’t just the clubs and professional players, the entire e-sports environment in the Korean server was the same. If they lost the game, the trolls in China would at most send some spicy chicken sauce to their players, but the Korea trolls would really send blade pieces and dead rats.

Furthermore, the Korea trolls would still flame even if they were the Champions. When Faker lost the Intercontinental competition, his fans would use the most vicious words to curse his entire family. Bang was flamed like a dog by his fans because he said,”I’m earning more than 100 of you”. In the end, he could only say,”I’ll use the rest of my life to atone for my sins.”

It could be seen how much importance the Korea e-sports circle placed on the championship.

Many people thought that there was fierce competition between the Korea teams and that they would not share their strategies with each other. This was a completely wrong idea.

In Chen Mo’s previous life, the reason why the Korea teams didn’t share their strategies with each other was because the LK had already dominated the game. They basically won the championship without sharing their strategies.

Even so, the South Korean team only practiced with the Korea team in the world competition. They would never practice with foreign teams to prevent any possibility of tactical leakage.

......

Moreover, even if they played practice matches with foreign teams, they would never come up with any tactics. They would only try to get the other side’s tactics for research. Once they found out that the other team didn’t play any tricks, they would no longer ask this team to play training matches.

In parallel world, the Korea teams were at a disadvantage. Even the European and American teams,”VSG” and “WBG”, posed a threat to the Korean teams, not to mention the Chinese teams that had started earlier. Under such circumstances, it was perfectly normal for the Korean teams to share their strategies and fight for better results.

……

From October 19th to October 29th, the top eight and semi-finals would begin.

The results of the quarter-finals were basically as everyone had predicted. They advanced to the semi-finals with NRG, VSG, IF, and OST, respectively. Among them, team VSG, team IF, and team OST were all recognized as strong teams. There was basically no suspense in the game.

The match between NPC and MAD went on for five rounds. MAD’s support player Muffy used Tauren, Blitzcrank, and Zyra to create a lot of trouble for NPC. In the final round, NPC simply banned the support twice and then went for Tauren first, completely limiting Muffy’s hero pool. After that, they won the game with a stronger mid-laner and jungler combination.

The popularity of the semi-finals had reached a new high because two Korea teams had been eliminated in the top eight. Both NRG and IF had accumulated a large number of fans during this period of time. Therefore, the number of people watching the two semi-finals had even reached 7.8 million!

For others, this number might not be a big deal because the number of people in the group stage had already reached 7 million. This time, the domestic teams had performed so well and occupied two positions in the top four. It was normal to have a few hundred thousand more viewers.

But to Chen Mo, this number was already very satisfying, because it was close to the number of viewers he had in the S2 of League of Legends in his previous life, 8.3 million.

The reason was that League of Legends was so popular in China, and the number of Chinese players made up the majority of the audience. Chen Mo didn’t take too many detours while making League of Legends, and the S1 World Championship this time had gathered some of the classic ideas from his previous life, which was why it successfully attracted the attention of many players.

For the two semi-final matches, the stadium for the finals was completely filled with spectators, and the atmosphere in the stadium was extremely lively.

The match between NRG and VSG started first. After losing the first game, the NRG team adjusted their condition very well. With the strong mid-laner and jungler team up, they finally won the game and successfully advanced to the finals.

It could be said that after winning the BO5 match against MAD, the cohesion and tactical literacy of the entire NRG team had taken a huge leap. Especially since they had learned some fast-paced tactics from MAD, which made it very difficult for VSG to adapt.

Although VG’s mid Pure had strong personal ability, under the fast-paced play of the NRG, the European players ‘slow-growth strategy was very slow. In the end, they could only watch the NRG advance to the finals.

The battle between IF and OST attracted a large number of attention. Everyone hoped to see IF successfully enter the final and complete the magnificent feat of the two China teams joining forces.

However, the process of the competition was full of twists and turns.

These two teams could also be considered old enemies. In the group stage, the result of IF and OST was 2:1. IF had won first place in the group because of the tiebreaker match.

After that, OST won the quarter-finals by 3:0 had defeated a veteran team from North America, WBG. It could be said that the current OST’s strength had improved a certain amount compared to the group stage.

In the case of IF winning the first game, OST turned over two games in a row. In the fourth game, IF tied the score again and the two teams ended with a score of 2: With a score of 2, he entered the deciding game of the fifth round.

In the deciding match, the two sides had a 54-minute tug-of-war, but in the end, OST won, and IF lost.

Although the live audience felt sorry for IF, they still gave a warm round of applause for OST’s wonderful performance.

It wouldn’t have been a big deal if the whole incident had ended there. The key was the microphone segment of the team battle after the game, which caused the public opinion on the internet to explode in an instant!

Starting from the semi-finals, the event organizers began to release some microphone recordings of the team battle. These recordings were mainly the recordings of the winning team battle, so that the audience could better feel the atmosphere of the team battle and the joy of victory.

The microphones for the two semi-final team battles had been released at the same time, mixed together. In the beginning, the microphones for the NRG and VSG had no problems, but there was a problem with the ones for the OT team.

In the final crucial team battle, OST completed a three for five exchange and wiped out IF, taking advantage of the situation to win the game. However, in this team battle, the Korea team’s voice had been silenced as many as six times.

Although the translated Chinese was very normal, the audience was not stupid. It was obvious that these few sentences were not good, so they had censored it without any translation.

The audience could not take it anymore. Many of them were guessing what the silence meant. There were also more and more audience members who demanded that the organizers make this matter clear. If OST really insulted IF’s members in the team voice chat, should they punish them accordingly?
