Today on March 12th At League of Legends, the European Team Karmine Corp succeeded in winning a surprising victory: they were able to win against the favorite Chinese from Top Esports at the “The First Stand” tournament in Seoul.
That was the situation: At LOL 5 teams, the best of their region, each playing, in a group phase at the new tournament The First stood against each other. Everyone plays it against everyone. 4 teams continue. The worst team is already leaving.
The European Karmine Corp had lost in competition against the 2 nominally worse teams and were almost as the team that would leave
The Chinese of top eSports went to the tournament as co -favorites. Had lost a game against South Korea, but won a game against the United States.
It was actually clear: Karmine Corp would lose without a chance against top eSports and the tournament would be practically over for her.
Many consider a German to be the best soloq player in LOL-how does Agurin play?

Karmine Corp defeats the Chinese master confidently
So it came: Karmine Corp surprisingly won 2-0 in just 2 games against top eSports.
The Europeans won the 1. match in 31 minutes. Star rookie Caliste played 9-5-13 on Ashe. Toplaner Canna contributed 10-3-6 to Jayce.
Match 2 also won the Europeans confidently at 18-5. Here Caliste dominated with 8-0-6, while Midlaner Vladi played on Yone 6-0-2.
Twitch streamer Caedrel sees the performance of the Chinese so badly that he was surprised as the US team, Team Liquid, could lose against them:
The funniest timeline
This is how it is seen: On Reddit you can see the game as a spectacular surprise victory, but the Chinese have to put up with some ridicule. For them that is already a embarrassment, it is said.
Tes is translated with top Eastern Swimmers than the team that has to swim home the fastest from South Korea.
It means that top eSports is extremely strong nationally, but it is constantly embarrassing internationally.
Others even etch: Now there is only a large region in LOL, South Korea.
It is hard to imagine, what a trouble is waiting for the Chinese players should actually lose and exit against the team from Thailand.
The performance of Karmine Corp to lose against the weakest teams and then dominate a fellow favorite is seen as “roaring funny” and “typical of the LEC”.
A user compares Karmine Corp with “Counter-Logic” and calls them “Kounter Cogic”. Well. In any case, the tournament doesn’t seem to be really logical at the moment. Maybe we’ll see our friend Teemo in the game against the favorites from South Korea, who have won everything so far: Professional in Lol thinks of playing the impossible champ to surprise the stars from Asia
