The three consecutive days of the LPL Summer Season "Knight's Road" were all about who gets out. Two teams from the Summit Group faced off against four teams from the Nirvana Group, competing for the last three playoff spots. It must be said that the grouping itself was very convincing, and both teams from the Summit Group had successfully advanced;

On the other hand, the S5 Commentary Cup is also being prepared, but the last year's champion Doinb is missing from the captains. He has been off the air for a long time, and is preparing to return to the game...



  NIP wins first victory on Knight's Road

Although the two teams in the Summit Group, LGD and NIP, only had a combined record of 1-15 in the regular season, they both seemed to be at ease when facing the Nirvana Group teams. NIP, which had a zero win rate in the group matches, achieved a 3-0 sweep against RA, which had a record of 5-2. Since then, all 9 teams in the Summit Group have entered the playoffs.



Before this, everyone didn't have a clear understanding of the strength gap between the Summit Group and the Nirvana Group. It was not until the "Knight's Road" opened in the past two days that the fans of each team realized that there was a reason why the two teams were in different intervals. Of course, NIP has been struggling to find its first win for a season, and it didn't get it until now, which is inseparable from Leyan's joining.



Leyan played very well in this BO5, and he recreated his old IG mid-jungle synergy with Rookie in S9. If NIP could use Leyan earlier, perhaps the regular season record would be better. The effect of power is mutual. While helping NIP, Leyan also continued his career.

——From a Tik Tok anchor to a playoff player, the gap is only one BO5 win.



Today, the "Knight's Road" will usher in the last game, OMG and TT, the two top teams in the Nirvana Group, will compete for the last playoff ticket. So which team do you think is more promising?



  The first place in the VCS regular season changes hands

The VCS region, known as the "strongest wild card", is known for its fierce competition, but there is a clear gap in the strength of the teams within the region, and GAM is basically the only one that dominates. From winning streaks in the regular season to winning the playoffs, GAM has achieved such a record many times. However, this season, GAM has encountered an opponent.



In the final match of the VCS regular season that ended yesterday, VKE swept GAM and became the team with the best record in the regular season. The coach and boss of this team is none other than former SN jungler Sofm. Since last year, VKE has shown good competitiveness, and this season it has officially fulfilled its talent and defeated the dominant GAM in the region.



It is worth mentioning that during the spring season, due to large-scale bans in the VCS region, Sofm also played as a support and almost made it to the MSI mid-season game.



However, the competition pressure in the VCS region is not that great this year. In the new S-League system, the VCS region has two places to participate in the play-in round. If nothing unexpected happens, VKE and GAM will most likely go to Europe to participate in the World Championship. I just don't know if VKE can break GAM's record again in the league.



  Doinb refuses to commentate on the Cup and focuses on gaining points

The summer season is coming to an end, and the schedule for the commentator cup is already being actively prepared. Icon, Zzitai, Letme, Pyl, Langxing are trying out players, but last year's champion Doinb is missing from the captains. He hasn't been on the air for a long time, and is currently actively preparing for the Korean server Rank.



As early as last week, Doinb changed the title of his live broadcast room to "Wait for my comeback". During this period, Doinb's Korean server score has soared, and now it has reached 1167 points in the King rank. After reaching this level, both opponents and teammates include a large number of professional players. According to the ranking record last night, HLE's mid laner Zeka was sanctioned by him twice in a row.





Doinb's decision not to participate in the Commentary Cup can be considered a signal to the outside world.



Live streaming and personal popularity are no longer his top priorities. His new goal is to face the challenges of the S15 season with a better competitive state. As one of the few S-League champions in the LPL region, it is not difficult for Doinb to find a team. However, the quality of his personal competitive state will determine whether he can join a more competitive team.

So do you think Doinb’s comeback is a good choice?
