AG and KSG, Wolves and TTG, the possibility of these two pairs meeting in the first round of the knockout round is really not small
The draw for the World Championship knockout round is developing in the direction of good news, AG and KSG, Wolves and TTG, the possibility of these two pairs meeting in the first round is really not small, a little interesting!
Although the group stage of the World Championship has not yet ended, in fact, the finale is basically decided. Group A and Group B have ended, Group A is AG No. 1, Wolves No. 2, and Group B is RW No. 1, KSG No. 2, and Group C and Group D, Group C, in the case of WB and hero not losing to the wild card team, unless hero can 3-0 WB, otherwise it is basically WB No. 1, and hero No. 2. 3-0 refers to 1 group stage and 1 play-off match, if hero group stage can't do 2-0 WB, naturally there will be no play-offs. There is basically no suspense in Group D, and it is difficult for TTG not to take the first place.
The rules of this World Championship are relatively complete and rigorous, and there are 2 rules that everyone must pay attention to, 1 is the principle of avoiding the same group, and 2 is the first group in the first round of the knockout round to play with the second in the group. Because of these 2 rules, the knockout draw has developed in a desirable direction. Why do you say that?
AG and Wolves are in Group A, so they will not meet in the first round of the knockout round, so if nothing else, AG has 3 potential opponents in the first round, namely hero, KSG, and 1 wild card team. In other words, there is a 1/3 chance that AG and KSG will meet. AG and KSG often quarreled from time to time because of various things after the transfer of Ah Ze, and the offseason was even more noisy because of the incident between the cat god and Ah Ze. The two teams met again, and it is estimated that many friends like to see it, right?
Wolves were beaten to the second place in the group by AG, which was probably not expected by many people before the game, and this means that the opponent of the first round of the knockout round of the Wolves is the first team of the three teams in the group stage, and TTG is one of them. In other words, there is also a 1 in 3 probability that Wolves will meet TTG in the first round of the knockout round. Pick the cup knockout draw, such a small probability, Wolves and TTG have drawn the top 8 matchups, this time the chance of 1 in 3, is it difficult to draw again? It's really not difficult at all!
However, fortunately, the World Championship knockout tournament adopts a double-elimination system, and each team has its own resurrection armor and has a chance to tolerate mistakes, so the really powerful teams, even if they are too bad in the draw, they have no big problems. But if there is fault tolerance, it still can't go far, it's more because of its own strength, and you can't blame external factors.
Friends, do you think AG and KSG, Wolves and TTG, these two pairs of rivals will meet in the first round of the knockout round? Welcome to leave a comment below to tell us your views!
