Chapter 66: Griffin Strikes
The game is about to start, and first of all, the SKT players will come out.
Perhaps the championship trophy was already on the verge of being touched, but this time the atmosphere of SKT fans in the stadium was particularly enthusiastic, with applause and cheers for every player who came out.
As soon as Li Xu came out, he felt the difference in the atmosphere, and he even saw someone holding an electronic board with his name written on it for the first time, of course, this time it was not for him to get out, it said 'Li Xu, come on'.
"No one booed me this time? Hmm~ Is it a mistake in the electronic board? Li Xu was surprised.
Clid in the back was stunned, this guy just sprinkled the baby's head warmly?
Park Ji-hwan: "It seems that Lee Wook is still a little unaccustomed to such a scene full of goodwill from fans. β
Kim Jixian: "Li Xu is used to the confrontation with some fans, but his performance has gained more recognition. β
Li Xu sat on the table and glanced at the position of the GRF player, the first impression of this team was that he was young, the mid laner Chovy was even only 17 years old, according to South Korea's 19-year-old virtual age of adulthood, three of the starters were minors.
On SKT's side, veterans like Brother Li and MATA are not mentioned, and the youngest Clid is also an adult.
In the S8 Spring Split, GRF entered the relegation play-offs with a complete win record in the minor league.
In the relegation play-offs, GRF defeated the perennial lift team KDM and MVP, and the team, which was only a year old, appeared on the LCK stage for the first time.
GRF caused a lot of sensation after being promoted to the LCK, because this team is different from the previous minor league newcomers, and the teams promoted from the previous minor leagues basically can't escape the fate of being reduced to the belly of the fish, but GRF continues to pick off the LCK veteran giants.
And GRF's style of play is not very similar to the LCK team, the style of play is extremely fierce, the operation is delicate, and it is very good at fighting, which was once compared to the SSB team of the year, but they are not very good at operation, this style of play is closer to the playing style of the LPL team.
And the core of this team is the jungler Tarzan, as a jungler, Tarzan not only has to drive the rhythm, but also often can play more damage than double C in a match, which is very scary.
Having entered the semi-finals, the format has changed from the previous BO3 to BO5, and the team that wins three games first wins.
At the beginning of the first game of BP, the blue side GRF is selected first, and the red side SKT is selected first.
GRF first-hand BAN dropped Urgat.
Kim Jixian: "Griffin's first-hand BAN position was given to Li Xu, will there still be a situation of three BAN Li Xu like in the last round of DWG?" β
Park Zhihuan: "It shouldn't be, at present, it's really hard to say what shortcomings Li Xu's hero pool has, Griffin should be a strong BAN hero for the version, Griffin should be acceptable as long as he is not pressed too the road." β
SKT sent the snake girl backhand to continue into the small black house, this version of the snake girl is fierce, and even the opportunity to show up is almost gone.
GRF second BAN aimed at Brother Li, and directly BAN dropped Akali, although Brother Li is not used much by the assassin hero now, but every time he takes it out, the effect is good, after all, he is the king of assassins in the past, and the man who has the assassin throne of the Hokage.
Of course, the most recent match between Brother Li and Akali was the bubble match against GENΒ· G's tiebreaker.
In the end, he was stuck in the corner of the wall by a black and yellow pillar, and he was also directly stuck out of the World Competition.
SKT's second hand sent Victor to the BAN spot, one of the few heroes with strong Carry ability that GRF top laner Sword excels at.
Blue side GRF third BAN knife sister.
Haokai: "Griffin continued to target Brother Li BAN and dropped the knife sister, this hero is good in the middle and on the road, but Li Xu has not taken it out before, it should be aimed at Brother Li." β
Hallucination: "Griffin thinks too much, do you need to think about anything else about Brother Li?" BAN Ice Girl is done. β
"Hahaha! The hallucinogenic teacher is profound, and the GRF coach can't even see it, the ice girl is present, and Guapi will use other heroes? β
"That's it, GRF takes off his pants and farts, you just BAN Ice Girl, you still can't understand after so many scenes?"
"GRF, what the BAN thing is? Have you ever watched an SKT race? I'm on all BAN than you. β
The third BAN of the first round of SKT was given to Sword Demon, which was also aimed at Sword, which was to kill GRF's weakness, and the hero pool of the core jungler Tarzan was bottomless, and there was no way to target it, of course, it was the most cost-effective for the upper lane.
GRF prefers to lock Galio directly, and this hero can be used as the cornerstone of the team and can be paired with a variety of rosters.
SKT lived up to expectations, without a trace of hesitation, and directly took out the ice girl Lisandro.
Hallucination: "Sure enough, do you still need to think about it?" It's good to target Brother Li's BAN Ice Girl. β
"Hahaha! Brother Li has already specialized in bastard heroes, and Li Bingbing, a bastard in one hand, who is not convinced? β
"Brothers, just spray or go through the process? Forget it, I'll spray it directly, Li Bingbing, curse you for eating instant noodles without seasoning. β
The second hero to show SKT is Jace.
Haokai: "SKT directly locked Jace, and sure enough, it is the same as hallucinogenic said, this is to play an advantage on the road." β
Hallucination: "That's right, although Li Xu hasn't used Jace in the previous competition, the top laner will definitely use it, it depends on the proficiency." β
GRF picked Sain and Mantis directly in the second hand.
Haokai: "The purpose of GRF's praying mantis is very clear, that is, to cooperate with Galio to enter the game, but is this Sean a little early?" SKT has taken out Jace, and it's unlikely that he's going to BAN Sain again. β
Hallucination: "Li Xu has taken out Jace, most of the heroes in the Sword hero pool are difficult to come out, and there are only a few anti-pressure heroes he is good at, if he is BAN in the second round, he will force Sword to dig out Galen." β
SKT picked EZ, which Teddy is good at, for the third time.
Haokai: "Now the first three heroes are out, GRF's ability to open the group is very strong, there is control and front row, SKT's poke ability is extremely good, and now both sides are missing a very important auxiliary position." β
Hallucination: "That's right, GRF lacks a hand to protect the mantis to advance the assistance, like Tam Morgana, SKT is the best BAN drop, but SKT does not have a front row and lacks protective assistance, Tam is the best choice, see how the two sides BAN in the second round, anyway, SKT will choose first in the second round, it may be one each, SKT If BAN Morgana, GRF will definitely not put Tam out." β
Sure enough, in the second round, the two sides had a tacit understanding that they did not assist each other, SKT gave two BAN positions to Lucian and Ash, and GRF sent the prince and Nightmare to BAN positions.
In the end, the lineups of both sides were determined.
Blue side GRF:
Top Order: Sword (Undead God of War, Sain)
Jungler: Tarzan (Void Marauder, Kazik)
Midlaner: Chovy (Colossus of Justice, Galio)
ADC: Viper (Daughter of the Void, Kaisha)

Jungler: Clid (Blind Monk, Li Qing)
MIDLANER: FAKER (FROST WITCH, LISANDRO)
ADC: Teddy (Explorer, Ezreal)
