Chapter 678: The Final Four Are Out, Three Stars Civil War!
Of course, in fact, ES.M can't really be like the ultimate boss in the dungeon, quietly waiting for the challenger to figure out the pattern and take them down. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In contrast, ES. Although they didn't play this week, they watched every game of the past few days very carefully, trying to get the best idea of how their opponents are going in this playoff stage.
As for SSW, which also made it to the semi-finals, the same is true.
......
After a week of bubbling out rounds in the BO5, SSB finally defeated KTA 3:1 in B05 against KTA on Saturday to reach the semi-finals first.
On Sunday, SKT played the entire Bo5 in the life-and-death duel with Nanjin, until the last game, when the coach on SKT's side replaced the team's rookie jungler Blank and replaced Bengi, the "veteran of the three dynasties".
In the end, in the last game of this life-and-death duel, SKT's Nakano Easyhoon and Bengi teamed up to revitalize the rhythm of the early stage of the game, defeating Nanjn with a 3:2 record to win the last game of B05, becoming the last team to enter the OGN semifinals this season.
......
Once the semi-finals are decided, according to the competition system, SSB, which is the first to enter the finals, will face SSW, who are second in the standings, in the two-day competition next weekend, forming a semi-final "Samsung Civil War".
And the rest of SKT will naturally face the real king of the season, ES.M. The two teams who have met in the group stage will also face off again in a BO5 showdown to determine the team that will enter the finals.
......
The round-robin playoffs came to an end when the results of SKT and SSB reached the "semi-finals".
For a while, South Korea's major e-sports media have heard the news.
First of all, the "Samsung Civil War", the brotherly dispute between SSW and SSB makes people feel full of highlights, and there is even a faint feeling of mixing "family ethics dramas" and "European and American blockbusters".
As for the media, they also predicted the victory or defeat of the semifinals based on the past records of Samsung's two "Gemini" brother teams.
The result of the prediction is somewhat unexpected, in the previous games in this parallel world, whenever there is a "three-star civil war" situation, it is often the three-star blue who has a smooth performance this season wins.
Especially at the point of Nakano, in the past games between the two teams, whenever the situation on the side of Samsung Blue was at a stalemate, and the duo of Deft and Heart in the bottom lane and Acron in the top lane were at a suppressed disadvantage, Dade in the middle would often stand up and cooperate with Spirit's jungler to break the balance of the three-star white, thus revitalizing the whole situation.
And Yasuo in the Dade hero pool often had a very bright performance in the past matches against Samsung White, becoming a very important point to break the balance.
Even caused the civil war after Samsung, Dade's Yasuo has become a "reserved project" for Biban.
What is more interesting here is that in the previous civil wars between the twin stars of Samsung, Samsung Blue especially won the spring game, and Dade, the mid-laner of Sanxin Blue, often stood up at this time to drive the rhythm of the whole game.
Therefore, Dade has the title of "The Emperor of Spring", which is talked about by many fans in the e-sports circle.
And coincidentally, this time when there was a three-star semi-final civil war, it happened to be the spring game.
Therefore, now South Korean netizens and people do not support SSW, which has shown excellent suppressive strength since the summer game last season, for this Samsung civil war, but a considerable number of people are more optimistic about SSB this season.
But as for the final result, it is naturally not predicted by those "strong mouths" on the Internet, in fact, no one can predict the e-sports competition, and it will never be known until the time of the real meeting.
......
As for next Sunday's match between SKT and ES.M, it will be equally controversial.
Although in terms of data and results, ES. M deservedly ranked No. 1 this season, and the five players in the team also showed their strong suppressive power online.
Even after the ES.M match, some Korean netizens jokingly called "ES. The pressure of M's game is too strong, and it is strongly recommended that the team that plays with ES.M in the future bring an oxygen tank to play again, so that it is fairer. ”
At that time, as soon as this rather ridiculous message came out, it was quickly recognized by the majority of Korean netizens.
Therefore, it can be seen from here that ES. M has become a very dominant team in the hearts of Korean esports fans.
......
So where does the controversy come from?
In fact, the biggest controversy in the SKT vs. ES.M match is that SKT is a team that can create miracles against strong teams.
And they are also a resilient team that is particularly good at playing BO5, and can often surprise in the final game of Bo5 and turn the whole situation around.
In this parallel world of Korean e-sports circles, if we talk about the Spring Emperor of Samsung Blue's "savior"; Then SKT's savior is undoubtedly Bengi, the "veteran of the three dynasties" who often falls behind the score in BO5 games, and turns the tide in Bengi, the "veteran of the three dynasties".
In fact, Bengi's jungler is not very good in the post-game analysis and comments, and is even slightly inferior to several other "wild king" level players in South Korea, such as Kakao and Dandy, both in terms of Gank's rhythm and hero's operation.
But what is more evil is that it is Bengi's unpretentious jungler who can often restrain those "show and jump" wild king-type players.
In contrast, SKT's rookie jungler Blank, although he also flies off when he plays a weak team, but when he encounters those "wild king" level players who are more beautiful than him, he is often dwarfed.
Perhaps, Bengi is the "heavy sword without edge, great ingenuity" after returning to the basics.
