"Congratulations YM! After five rounds, they finally defeated ROXTigers, the No. 1 seed from the LCK region! Miller's voice was already hoarse, "LPL has once again reached the final stage of the World Finals after a year of ups and downs!" ”

Lin Ran took off the soundproof headphones, and the sound in the stadium was instantly amplified several times into his ears, and under the background music symbolizing victory, shouts and roars were mixed together, and Lin Ran could even vaguely hear the sound of whimpering and sobbing.

Xiao Tian pounced excitedly, Jin Gong, Jack, Xiao Ming...... YM's five teammates hugged each other tightly.

The garlic king's mouth opened and closed, and the extremely restless voice at the scene made Lin Ran unable to hear what he was saying.

"Xiao Tian quickly regained his form after a slump in the fourth game," Miller tried to calm his excitement, "His performance in the deciding game was amazing, with bold flashes in the early stage, Q punishment Q to help lay the edge on the road, and finally snatched the big dragon from Little Peanut to completely clear his name." ”

"Their cooperation in the fifth game is quite tacit, although there was a mistake in the middle of the game and the rat king seized the opportunity to fight back, but the final big dragon stealing the decision is too exquisite!" The doll is also touting the teams in her own division.

After a brief celebration, the YM crowd shook hands with the ROX players on the other side.

The camera switched, and the audience only noticed the expressions of everyone in the Tiger team at this time, SMEB's eyes were blank, Little Peanut was hiding his face with his hands, and the Rat King looked at the blood-red word of defeat on the screen, and he had not accepted the facts.

The Korean commentator said in a snarky tone, "ROXTigers, the No. 1 seed we had high hopes for, fell in the semi-finals, but their performance this year is legendary enough. ”

"Five players are either facing retirement or being rejected by other teams, and they still won the spring runner-up and the summer championship without a big sponsor or a training base."

"But esports is the king, and tonight YM is undoubtedly the brighter team, congratulations on their progress to the final, and they will face SKT who are currently undefeated."

Lin Ran shook hands with Grela, Rat King, and Kuro one after another, and Little Peanut was still lying on the table at this time, standing up under the reminder of his teammates, and hugged Lin Ran gently with red eyes.

YM crowds came out of the crowd and came to the center of the stage and waved around.

Little Peanut looked at the YM crowd who received the cheers and applause from the audience, and then looked up at the bright lights reflected in the dome of the venue, and his heart was melancholy.

"It's time for us to get out of the game."

SMEB picked up his jersey jacket and patted his jungler on the shoulder.

The five members of the Tigers left through another passageway, which was dimly lit compared to the main stage, with no applause, no cheers, only sporadic light pouring under their feet as the spotlights turned in the distance.

The ROX crowd was silent, knowing in their hearts that the five were about to part ways.

SMEB looked back again, and the dazzling light on the stage was like a brilliant firework rising into the sky.

He had fantasized that he would defeat SKT head-on in the final and destroy the Red Dynasty with his own hands, but that all went up with the loss of the tiebreaker.

He didn't know if the lights in his dream were more brilliant and charming than they were today.

"I know that some people may not like this team very much, but there will never be a team with the style of ROXTigers."

Lin Ran and Xiaotian were invited for an official interview.

The tall blonde hostess looked two laps bigger than Xiaotian, and the garlic king glanced up, feeling that the deterrent effect was a bit great, so he hurriedly pulled Lin Ran's body, and the two changed positions.

"Congratulations on beating ROX to reach the final, tonight's game was very anxious, the two sides won alternately, and it was not until the fifth game that the final winner was decided, how did you adjust your mentality?"

After listening to Vincent's translation, Lin Ran held the microphone and replied.

"There are veterans on the other side, and they have more experience, but there is a saying in our country, those who are barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes, we are still young and can afford to lose, and several veterans of ROX face more pressure to win or lose, after all, they have little left in their careers."

"The second question is for the jungler Tian," the hostess looked sideways at the garlic king, "your performance in the tiebreaker today was quite good, what do you think made you perform better than Little Peanut in the tiebreaker?" ”

Xiao Tian pondered for two seconds and glanced up at Lin Ran.

"Our team's mid laner helped me find confidence before the tiebreaker," he admits frankly, "I used to see people in China saying that I played like a so-and-so jungler, but I have to say that my style is completely different from theirs. ”

"I am who I am, I am ...... Days, tim of YM. Garlic King Ba said in a calm tone.

There were many international students and domestic spectators who went to the ocean to watch the game in the venue, and they cheered excitedly after hearing Xiaotian's words.

The domestic live broadcast room platform also exploded instantly.

"The cup with the most calm tone?"

"Every day, every day!"

"What should I do?"

Vincent translated the original words, and the foreign blonde hostess naturally didn't understand the pun of the garlic king.

"Last question, you will face this year's MSI champions, S3 and S5 World Championship champions SKT, who have won 12 consecutive games so far, will you feel a lot of pressure?"

"As before, I think SKT is facing more psychological pressure," Lin Ran laughed, "Even if we lose, we will also tie the best result in the history of the LPL in the S competition." ”

"But SKT can't afford to lose, and if we lose the S championship by killing three LCK teams in a row, I think they will lie under the covers late at night and cry bitterly."

In the past, the European and American audiences at the scene began to coax, the final is a confrontation between LPL and LCK, and it has nothing to do with them, and the people who eat melons now want to see the collapse of the LCK dynasty that has ruled for 3 years.

The next morning, YM boarded a plane and flew nearly 4,000 kilometers to Los Angeles on the West Coast of the United States for a distance of nearly 4,000 kilometers and a flight duration of 6 hours.

"Before coming to the United States, I never imagined that one day we would be able to stand on the highest stage of the S6 finals." Brother Hao sat beside Lin Ran, feeling that his body was light and fluttering, like a dream.

Lin Ran was concentrating on reviewing the SKT game with the tablet, and replied casually, "It's okay, you'll get used to it by this time next year." ”

Brother Hao straightened his waist and looked left and right at the YM players, Jack was napping half-lying, and the blanket that was originally covering his body slid to his waist.

He moved his body and carefully helped Jack fold the blanket, and Brother Hao didn't dare to be negligent now, as JKL's cold before the group stage scared him.

"Next year...... Brother Hao leaned over to Lin Ran's side, "I said something unpleasant, how many people do you think there will be left in the team next year?" ”

"What do you mean?" Lin Ran pressed the pause button, and the screen froze at the moment when Faker singled out Yue Lun's clockwork with Victor.

"I've listened to the news released by the Riot staff in the past two days, and S7 will be held in our country next year." Brother Hao whispered.

“…… Are you saying that there will be salary problems in the team next year? Lin Ran also lowered his voice.

"That's right, if we don't produce results in the S5 finals this year," Brother Hao took a sip of ice water, "This year, there are eight and four finals, and we have also entered the finals, and as soon as the results are good, domestic clubs will begin to imagine how to win the championship next year." ”

"Once you win the championship in the S competition held in China next year, it will definitely be a large wave of unprecedented traffic, and there is no team that is not excited, what do you rely on to win the championship?"

"It's not you star players yet, you wait and see during this winter's transfer period, the clubs will definitely give priority to your young players who have made achievements, and the salary will definitely go up when the time comes."

Lin Ran answered, he looked out the window, and the white and swollen clouds like marshmallows were close at hand.

"When the time comes, the gold lord behind us may not be able to keep all the players," Brother Hao looked at Lin Ran in deep thought, thinking that he had disturbed his thoughts, and couldn't help but regret a little, "Don't think about this now, play the finals first." ”

"What?" Lin Ran was a little puzzled when he heard Brother Hao's words, "I'm wondering if I can buy a house in Shanghai with my salary next year." ”

"I have to get a few million dollars next year?" Lin Ran began to count, "The down payment should be enough, but what about social security?" Brother Hao, I asked you last time......"

Brother Hao's face was full of helplessness.

Staying at the hotel, YM did not play hot in the queue as usual, and held a meeting to discuss the strategy of dealing with SKT.

"The first point, and SKT's weakest player this year, is the top laner." Su Cheng in the shot flipped through the notebook.

"Why is this year's SKT slightly weaker than last year, the problem lies in the top order, in terms of personal strength and team integration, he is worse than S5's marin."

"In the 12 games so far, Duke has the lowest participation rate of any of the 16 teams, at just 52.1 percent."

"He used a total of nine games for the three heroes of Nal, Troll, and Jace in the hero pool, and Rambo and Kenan used two."

"The combination of the two data shows that Duke plays a single role in the team," the chief analyst took a sip of hot water, "Jin Gong, you mainly play with him in the finals, don't easily teleport and play the team." ”

"In the semi-finals, the looper pressed the duke a little when he was on the line, and in ten minutes, he forcibly teleported to the bottom lane to give away all his lane advantages." Cool text

Xiao Tian grabbed his hair, he came to the United States for a month, and the garlic king didn't trim his hairstyle, and his long hair was already soft and covered his eyes.

"Then am I going to help Jin Gong train him?"

Su Cheng shook his head, "There's no need, SKT won't help duke, he has always been free-ranged, and the analysis of 12 game data shows that he only received a total of 8 times of support from his teammates in the first 20 minutes." ”

"An average of 0.75 times per game, this data is the lowest among all teams," Su Cheng saw Jin Gong and Xiao Tian looking at him, "In the first 20 minutes, Jin Gong will receive an average of 1.08 times of support from his teammates in a game, which is higher than duke." ”

"That's an exaggeration, isn't it?" Jin Gong spoke a mouthful of mutton skewers in Mandarin, "I feel much better in my heart instantly, there is an even worse order than me?" ”

……

Late at night, Lin Ran took a shower to get rid of his fatigue, leaned on the bedside of the hotel room and pulled a pile of materials, yawned, and Xiaotian on the side was reading the sticker.

The four-hour meeting had just ended, and in the rare leisure time before going to bed, Lin Ran was still flipping through several key points discussed this afternoon.

In addition to the top laner Duke likes a single belt, the jungler blank nicknamed Xiao Hei and the double champion veteran Stupid Chicken are keen to use Olaf as an invading control map flow jungler.

Bang in the lower lane is good at using all the popular AD heroes of this World Championship, Ash, Ice, and Policewoman are all at the level that can be carried out by taking them out, and they will also have EZ, an absolute hero sea.

As mentioned earlier, the strength of EZ in the current version is a sewer, but as the top EZ user, bang is still used repeatedly, and has won all of EZ's victories in the S6 Finals.

South Korea's Wolf Warrior is a top-notch support that combines lane suppression and map control ability.

As for the mid-laner faker, like Lin Ran, he can't get Sindra, and among the rest of the mid-laner options, he prefers clockwork and Victor.

"Don't you play Dragon King...... Lin Ran glanced at Lee Sang-hyuk's hero pool in the S6 finals and muttered to himself.

He flipped through the information and found all the heroes that Faker had used since his debut.

There is no dragon king.

The faker game has never played this hero.

Lin Ran sighed and lay on the bed face up, looking at the snow-white ceiling.

He looked at the remaining points in his system, and BO5 now played a total of 8 small games, with a weight of 50 points, and he had saved a total of 1500 points.

He increased the version development ability to 92, and then increased the lane suppression ability to 91.

The improvement of his ability with more than 90 points was immediate, and Lin Ran felt that a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

Something terrible seems to have been discovered.

Lin Ran plans to test it out after getting up tomorrow.

In a good mood, he grabbed the tablet next to him, opened the third game of SKT vs. RNG, and compared it with the information provided by the main analyst.

In this game, until the 24th minute, RNG led the 5K economy with a head-to-head ratio of 4:0.

But in the next 9 minutes, SKT smoothed out the economic disadvantage through a perfect operation strategy, and then a wave of teamfights sent RNG pleasure away.

Lin Ran felt a little unbelievable when he heard the news this afternoon, in his opinion, it is already quite good that the disadvantaged party can maintain the economic gap unchanged through operation, and SKT can actually level the economic disadvantage through operation?

In the video, bang and wolf appear in the middle lane to put pressure on RNG at the beginning of the 24th minute, while faker and duke are in the upper and lower lanes respectively, and they choose to push out the lane and then go back to the city to change lanes, back and forth.

This kind of operation left the two of them exposed to RNG's vision for very little time, and each wave of return to the city made RNG terrified, and they didn't know if the two of SKT's upper and middle lanes would suddenly appear in the middle of the lane to gather and advance.

As a result, the two side lanes of RNG did not dare to advance unscrupulously, and the promotion plan was forced to stall.

After two minutes, RNG finally came to his senses and realized that SKT could not be given a chance to delay, and forcibly gathered in the middle of the lane to demolish the SKT Middle 1 Tower.

However, from the moment the five RNG players appeared in the mid lane, it only took 8 seconds for SKT to gather all the manpower to hold the middle one tower, and the speed of switching to support was exaggerated.

RNG failed to push and gave away the looper's life, and then SKT pushed back to the middle of the tower.

At 29 minutes, a battle broke out between the two sides, and the RNG five were eager to snowball and seduce SKT to come out and fight them, but the seasoned defending champion was not fooled at all, and used Karma to pull and consume, and finally played 1 for 1.

However, the duke with the line in the lower lane did not teleport at all, and instead single-handedly pushed down the next tower of the RNG.

At 33 minutes, faker pretended to return to the city in the grass on the top road, tricked the RNG guards into leaving, and then pushed off a tower on the top road.

In 9 minutes, skt played RNG's 2:1 man-to-head ratio through line transfer operation, the number of defense towers was 3:0, and RNG's 5K economic advantage was gone.

Lin Ran watched the video twice again and felt that his scalp was numb.

SKT is like a ghost, this means of operation is outrageous, the disadvantages in the early stage can be evenly matched, if the balance of power in the early stage, how can it be repaid?

The defending champions understood the version quite well, and the team of analysts spent the next two days repeatedly studying SKT's style of play and found that their style of play was almost identical to YM.

Generally speaking, the jungler is an arrow invasion, the middle lane is protected and supported, and after getting the advantage, he keeps raiding the lower lane, controlling a blood tower and a small dragon, and then turning to a big snowball, and finally taking the big dragon to end the game.

This is the S6 version of the answer, the Wealth Code.

SKT and YM went out to shoot a promotional video on 27 October, which was also the first time the two teams met after the draw for the quarter-finals, and the players from both sides were quite kind.

During the recording, faker seems to be overweight in the lower wolf stick combination, and he doesn't buy drinks himself, and always likes to grab their coke to drink.

This wolf is angry enough, known as SKT's only brother Li Jaewan's cosplay keg, swaying a body of meat against faker is a meat bullet impact.

Los Angeles, as the second largest city in the United States, is bustling and has many tourist attractions, but they have no intention of appreciating the finals, and they have to go back to training after filming in a hurry.

It is worth mentioning that the training matches before the finals, from the group stage to the semi-finals, each team only needs to avoid the opponents in the same group and half.

But now the eliminated RNG and ROX have all flown out of the United States, leaving only SKT and YM to participate in the finals.

There is no way for the two teams to schedule a training match between them - this will reveal their tactical intentions in advance.

They want to make an appointment with their own teams, but the distance is far away, and the exaggerated physical delay is enough to ruin their plans.

Forced to be helpless, the two teams usually focus on qualifying exercises, and occasionally find several league teams in North America that have not yet had holidays to play training matches, which is the right to maintain their feelings.

Lin Ran secretly practiced black technology with his teammates during this time, and the effect was remarkable.

For a week, there were no matches to watch in all the regions, and they discussed the upcoming finals on various forums.

Korean netizens are quite optimistic about this, in their opinion, SKT is like an invincible god, and it is impossible to lose the final.

After all, in the two years of S3S4, LPL and LCK ended in a fiasco, and they possessed a natural sense of psychological superiority.

Domestic audiences are also generally pessimistic, SKT's 12-game winning streak is a repeat of last year's glorious dominance, and the rational brother in the two bars thinks YM can win at most like last year's runner-up KOO.

"As long as the finals are not 0:3, I can accept it, and YM has done its best to beat two LCK teams in a row."

"I think YM is going to be cool, I didn't come up with any tricks to press the bottom of the box in the fifth game with ROX in the last game, and I guess I don't have any routine reserves, SKT has won all the way, I don't know how many big moves I have hidden."

"Pure passers-by, there is one thing to say, indeed, YM has nothing to spray this year, right? Everyone was not optimistic about them before the S game, and it was good to be able to reach the finals. ”

"Just win one game, don't let SKT win the championship and disgust them, but it's a pity that I'm not in the United States, otherwise wouldn't it be stable to put laxatives in SKT's takeaway pickles?"

"There's no suspense about betting on the team's wins or losses, let's guess who will kill who in the middle lane, Ran got 13 kills in 14 games, and faker got 10 kills in 12 games."

When it comes to the mid-lane game, the old buddies of the pure passers-by who resist pressure began to bubble, and there are still more bar friends who guess faker to win, but there are also many people who choose to believe Lin Ran.

From LSPL's debut to the S6 finals, Lin Ran's performance is obvious to all, and he has also attracted a lot of fans by relying on his strength.

Public opinion continues to ferment, and the final day has arrived.
