In the following round-robin matches, [Domination]'s performance was mediocre.
They didn't perform as well as they did on the first day.
However, their performance on the first day was short-lived. It disappeared very quickly.
This made the netizens doubt their strength.
Everyone speculated that [Domination]'s tactics had been thoroughly studied by their opponents. As a result, they were unable to use the same tactics again.
However, although [Domination]'s performance was mediocre, they only lost two games in the round-robin matches.
Some of these games were difficult to win. They only won by a small margin.
They were ranked second in the overall rankings, only one point behind [MLG], who was in first place.
The round-robin matches lasted for ten days.
In the end, [Domination] and the foreign team [MLG], who had won last year's first place, won a spot in the finals.
Before the start of the competition, there were already scores guessing and related betting on the internet.
The odds to bet on [Domination] was 1 to 5. The odds to bet on [MLG] was 1 to 1.2.
It was obvious that most of the audience was more optimistic about [MLG].
Even though many domestic players hoped that [Domination] would win, the reality was in front of them.
In the previous round-robin matches, [Domination] did not perform very well.
On the other hand, [MLG] was unstoppable.
During the round-robin stage, [Domination] won against [MLG]. However, [MLG]'s team also won. In fact, their total score was way ahead of [MLG].
There was also an additional reason. During the first official tournament, [Domination] made a huge fuss in the finals.
The finals were held in the largest stadium in Country Y.
The stadium was full.
Most of the fans were Zerg players. A large number of fans were holding [MLG]'s support signs.
This was because Country Y was [MLG]'s home ground.
Only a small number of domestic fans flew to the stadium to cheer for [Domination].
Most of the fans could only cheer for them on the internet.
The grand eSports competition was being broadcasted on all major live streaming platforms.
Before the game officially began, the commentator excitedly explained the rules and flow of the game.
He excitedly expressed his hope that [Domination] would win.
"Dear viewers, it's been four years! Four years with the Zerg! Our domestic team has never won the championship before! Their best result was three years ago when [Domination] took second place in the first tournament! "
"Let's hope that [Domination] can break through their limits and create new glory for our domestic teams! If [Domination] wins the championship today, it will be a historic moment for domestic players! "
The commentator's voice was loud and agitated.
However, no matter how excited the commentator was, the netizens still lacked confidence.
[Actually, we're already very satisfied with our current situation.]
[Good luck, Domination! Just do your best. No matter what, you're at least the runner-up.]
[To be clear, there are no runners-up in eSports.]
[Ahhh, I still hope they can win the championship!]
[I'm willing to trade ten pounds of fat on my body for Domination to win tonight!]
Only the champion would be remembered, not the runner-up.
In eSports, the winner was king.
