On January 2, the third day of the Challenger Cup qualifiers, it was also the penultimate day of the qualifiers. In addition to the three KPL teams in the top four of the table, the Fire Leopards also won four games, and the promotion situation in the qualifiers gradually became clear.
The standings form four distinct areas, the first of which is the Changsha TES thriving. In today's game, TES has won consecutive victories over MD and GK, taking the record of 5 wins and 1 loss as the first place in the standings, taking the lead in the line.
The second tier is three teams with 4 wins and 2 losses, GK, XYG and Fire Leopard. GK and XYG are both KPL's fall powerhouses, and it's not unusual to come to this position, but the Fire Leopards played well in the last game against XYG, taking advantage of three highs in the middle of the game by playing the wild player's explosive head, and finally defeated XYG, and the third day record was the same as that of the two KPL teams.
Although the Fire Leopards failed to reach the K-A final, they were actually the K-A regular season demon kings and won the first place in the K-A regular season. The Fire Leopards are strong overall, but their shortcomings are that the lineup is relatively fixed, and their play style and hero pool are gradually familiar to other teams in the second half of the schedule, and the playoff results are not good. But this shortcoming of the Fire Leopard was perfectly resolved in the BO1 competition, and the Fire Leopard performed quite well in this cup.
In the third stage of the standings, there are three teams with three wins and 3 losses, including a K-A team, Dongguan Wz, and two national competition teams, TRG and MD. Dongguan Wz is known as the king of the B1 of K A, they showed great strength in this year's World Championship qualifiers, when they pressed LGD, XYG, WB and other strong teams in the qualifiers to win the promotion quota, Wz also played well in the Challenger Cup.
But the two teams of the national competition MD, TLG can be called dark horses, MD people's deepest impression is their wild weiyang, he does not need anything against the KPL wild kings, but the team lacks experience, the key nodes of the game are easy to drop. If this team can have more experience in the competition, the future can be expected.
The TLG is arguably the biggest surprise of the tournament, and it stands to reason that they are the third place in the national competition, which should be the crane tail of the Challenger Cup. But the TRG in the game was not afraid of hands and feet, but the full operation was full and let go. Although they failed to win both of today's matches, they also created considerable trouble for the opponents. Especially against MD, in the first half of the game, the opponent got a big advantage and broke the three-way high ground, TLG completed a wave of counterattack at the Storm Dragon King, almost overturned. However, TRG still lost to the drop point caused by lack of experience, but the team's side and the wonderful performance of the shooter Feng Feng are still very impressive.
The last place in the standings is HH and HI, and the two teams with similar names and similar teams have also been surprisingly consistent in what happened in this cup, and together they have become experience babies of other teams. Relatively speaking, HH is more miserable, they lost to HI in today's trough showdown, and have not yet won the first victory, but HI is not much better, both teams have been eliminated ahead of schedule.
There are still 9 games tomorrow, in addition to the three teams in the KPL, the most likely to advance is the Fire Leopard who won four wins today, and the Fire Leopards will have the lowest opponent tomorrow, HH, and the probability of winning the fifth win is quite large. Followed by the three-win MD, MD against Dongguan Wz is a tough battle, but they also have a opponent who is a HI with points behind, and the pressure is relatively small. After that, Dongguan Wz, which has three wins, in addition to MD, they have to fight with TRG again. The most stressed is the TRG, in addition to Wz, they also have an opponent is GK, which is more difficult to win. However, the assumption of all this is based on the premise that GK and XYG will not lose two games in a row.
Do you think the KPL team will roll over tomorrow? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
