Chapter 48: The quarterfinals begin
October 16 is a very ordinary day in the hearts of ordinary people in London, the only difference is that today's London is warmer than usual, in the United Kingdom, there is a temperate climate in the United Kingdom, the summer is cool and the winter is very comfortable.
But today's in the hearts of summoners around the world, today is the day of the quarterfinals of the S5 World Finals, there is only one BO5 today, that is Wanwan's FW against OG in Europe, before the game, most people think that the lightning wolf has more advantages in this BO5, from the perspective of player or team record, FW can enter the top four in the hearts of more people, but the situation in the field has changed, and it is impossible to say.
On the 17th, there are two matches between SKT and AHQ, EDG and FNC, and on the 18th, there is a civil war between the two teams of LCK, KT and KOO.
Before the start of today's game, EDG everyone came to the training room early, and then stayed in front of the TV to learn the playing style of the OG or FW teams, regardless of which team advanced, if EDG successfully advanced to the next game and then met, there is also a mental preparation.
..................................
At EDG, the players, including internal analysts and coach Abu, were watching the game.
The players are all ready to enter the tournament, and although og is a new team, og is the Origen team that advanced to the World Finals in its first LCS season, which is very eye-catching.
The team assembled by World Champion xPeke himself is a mix of season-long veterans and budding rookies, but they have achieved their goal of becoming a top LCS team in less than a year.
Internal player on the list: SoaZ, nicknamed sister-in-law by many fans in China, and he is also an international friend Rambo who played against OMG in the S4 finals, allowing OMG to complete a shocking 50 blood turnaround miracle, and people gave the nickname 'sister-in-law', and xpeke was born and died, and worked hard together for 4 years, of course, you can understand that you hugged xpeke's thigh for four years.
After more than 2 years of fnatic career, soaz has become one of the most famous players in Europe, and after the S5 finals, soaz chose to go to the new team OG with xpeke instead of staying at fnatic with his fellow countryman yellowstar. Here I have to doubt the relationship between Xpeke and Soaz, no matter how bad the friends are, they will also take them to the end of the world together!
In the 2015 European LCS Summer Finals, OG and fnatic's new and old clubs fought the strongest battle in Europe, played 5 games, OG had a chance to win, just when xpeke was ecstatic, the e-sports Jesus once again exerted, 0-8 European Trojan and double endless captain sent xpeke to heaven, soaz smiled slightly: to the old club to know how to be grateful!
Midlaner: xPeke, xpeke is the first batch of professional players in LOL, after 5 seasons, he won the championship of the S1 World Finals, although the LOL professional competition system was not perfect at that time, but as an explorer of LOL e-sports, his contribution to LOL is obvious to all.
Xpeke spent a total of four seasons at fnatic, making three S-Series appearances and winning one championship. The S3 season is xpeke's hottest season, he first completed the incredible Cassadine stealing base miracle at IEM Cologne, which is the most widely circulated Cassadine stealing home on the Internet, which is the first battle to become famous in this competition.
Then he shone in the S3 Finals, and his FNC even defeated SSO 2-0 in the group stage, which earned him the title of the father of dade. The following season, Fnatic and Froggen's A-team played hard and both reached the S4 Finals, xpeke once again educated dade in the S series, and the scene of robbing and killing dade Tyrone became a classic again. Although this S-series trip ended in the group stage, the battle between fnatic and OMG in the group stage of the last century made xpeke once again an epic scene of LOL, only this time in the background.
Jungler: Amazing, ADC: Niels, Support: mithy These three are pure newcomers, and there are no operations and memories that can be directly remembered.
And fw's top laner: Steak, the famous steak coach is this, who played top laner in fw in the early years, the captain of the FlashWolves team, and is responsible for the top position. Steak is a player with a very distinctive personality, and a blasting head is his signature; As the team's Caller, Steak has to focus on individual operations while also taking into account the movement and tactical adjustments on the field, so he has put a lot of effort into adjusting his style of play in the past, which has also made the overall style more mature. At the same time, it is worth noting that the hottest top laner dragon girl in the S4 season was the first to be used by him in the S3 finals.
Jungler: Karsa, known as the "Lion King of Taiwan" because of her ability to play the role of Regal as a hero, plays as a Jungler player in the FlashWolves "League of Legends" team. Despite her youth and lack of experience as her teammates, Karsa has the courage to be a "newborn calf who is not afraid of the tiger" and has been attacking FlashWolves with ferocity and precision since she stepped onto the board! Taiwan's lion king, well-deserved.
In Fang Mu's last memory, Karsa seemed to have left fw because of a breakthrough, and instead joined the rng team and mlxg to switch between the two styles at will.
Midlaner: Maple, nicknamed "Fengtang", "Ma Bao", is the mid laner of Lightning Wolf, although Maple was unable to participate in 2014 due to his age, but with the support of the team and his family, Maple has relatively more practice time and training quality than other players, after a year of diligent practice, coupled with personal love for the game and intelligent talent, Maple has become the most important combat force of the team.
ADC: NL, which means Never loses, is an AD Carry player of fw. Although he seems to be a quiet, talkative little boy, among Taiwan's AD Carry players, he has always been known for his ferocity and daring operation. NL is not only one of the best players in the country, but also has the characteristics of being able to play more and more brilliantly in major tournaments, which not only shows his high and courageous skills, but also is regarded as a representative of major players.
Support: SwordArt, nicknamed "Snake Snake", a support player in fw. SwordArT is regarded as the positive energy of the team by his teammates, and has won the trust of his teammates and the love of fans with his positive, optimistic and sincere image. SwordArT is always a great way to boost team morale during an event, and at the same time pair up with Steak to help the team execute their tactics. There's no doubt that SwordArT is the spiritual leader of the wolf pack.
....................................
The game is finally about to begin
The heroes to choose from are as follows: FW cards, spiders, skateboard shoes
O.G. Tetsuo, Captain, Lulu
FW's choice of BAN card skateboarding shoes can be said to be aimed at BAN, as for BAN Spider, it should be considered that Spider is a stronger jungler in this version. The BAN people on OG's side basically need BAN out of the strong version.
The lineup that FW and OG finally chose was Nar, Excavator, Enchantress, Jinx and Morgana,
Nuo hand, wine barrel, bull head, wheel mother, ice bird, seeing OG's mid-laner choice, Fang Mu couldn't help but think of so many people who choose ice birds in RNAK, it seems that the European division is not only the rank of the ice bird to play more, the middle laner of each team in the game will have a hand of ice bird.
Judging from the lineups of both sides, FW's lineup is more explosive in the early and middle stages, while OG's lineup is more biased towards the late stage.
