Chapter 467: The Semifinals Are Coming!

The intensive mid-season group stage is finally over, and the final ranking situation has made the world almost predict wrong, and the only correct thing is probably 'the wild card team is sixth'.

However, the G2 almost made the world mispredict this...

Although the group stage is over, the discussion about the game has not stopped, and even intensified.

For the North American audience, CLG ended up in third place, but they won against Lightning Wolves, SKT, G2, SUP, but not against the undefeated LGD.

As one Reddit user put it:

'It's a great feeling that NA finally has a team that is internationally competitive. ’

Even some TSM fans were impressed by CLG's performance:

As a die-hard TSM fan, I'm glad CLG made it to MSI because I didn't think TSM could play that well. ’

And on the last day, after G2 lost to CLG and announced their farewell to MSI, G2 midlaner perkz tweeted:

‘GG,CLG。 It's a real disappointment at Worlds, but I'm sure the Summer and Worlds ahead will be even better. ’

CLG's coach Zikz said:

'Finally catch our breath, and then we'll be back on mission, Lightning Wolf, and we'll see you in the semifinals!' ’

NALCS narrated Azae replied:

If you win, please raise the American flag and sing the American national anthem, and release a flock of bald eagles by the way. ’

It's been a long time since the NA had done well at Worlds, and CLG was a surprise to reach the semi-finals, and if they make it to the final, it would be a real celebration.

There are also people who ridicule G2:

Perkz laughed at Huhi's record, and Huhi laughed at G2's record. ’

'G2-8, our dream has come true! ’

'G2 wasted four minutes on vacation because they didn't have 20 shots. ’

If you make up for all the shortcomings, all teams win. ’

In an interview in English after the race, CLGDarshan and Aphromoo said: "If we fill in all the gaps, we have a big chance of winning. ”

Because G2 had a two-week 'long vacation' before the MSI game, and their poor record also made the 'long vacation' a meme that was frantically teased by European and American audiences.

However, there is one thing to say, Perkz's mentality is really good, and Su Yi is willing to give him a thumbs up.

Here's the thing, in the farewell match of G2 vs. CLG, Perkz flashed 5 heroes in the BP stage, and their initials were V, A, C, A, T.

Exactly the first 5 letters of the English word "Vacation"...

......

LGD's last win over SKT made SKT the fourth place in the group stage, and the two teams faced each other in the knockout round, which was the most talked.

Fans of NA couldn't help but say, 'Salute to LGD's competitive spirit!' ’

Yes, if LGD deliberately loses to SKT, then it will be CLG who will face LGD in the semi-finals, and for CLG and NA fans, they really escaped and are very lucky.

And there are also viewers who praise the excitement of the last game, and at the same time look forward to the BO5 in the semi-finals.

That's a good game in League of Legends! This is one of the best Worlds in my six-year history, and it's ~yet~not~have~knot~~bundle~ super happy! ’

The thought of having five innings on Friday at that level increases the chances of a heart attack. ’

'This game only taught us one thing, next week's game is going to be super good!' ’

This is perhaps the highest level of technology collision on MSI! ’

......

And in China, for the emergence of LGD's total victory, it is naturally extremely praised, to put it simply, it is to blow to the sky!

However, some people are worried about facing SKT in the semi-finals, but they still think that the last one can be put and it is better to play CLG, because the difference between BO1 and BO5 is very large.

In the group interview after the game on the same day, someone asked Su Yi this question: "I met SKT in the first round... Is there a better option? ”

In this regard, Su Yi smiled: "What we should be worried about now is SKT, and we have to meet it after all, we have only one goal, that is, the championship, no matter who the opponent is, I believe that we will win in the end!" ”

"In the past few days, the entire group stage, LGD's lineup has been played around the main theme of today's version, and SKT has won and lost, but they are trying different lineups, including they also came up with a lineup that they are very good at in the LCK today, do you have any preparations for the knockout stage?"

Su Yi: "Well, everyone will know when the time comes." ”

"I want to ask marin, you didn't play so well in the LPL in MSI, maybe the limelight will be stolen by others, what do you think is the reason?"

Hearing this, Su Yi picked his eyes and glanced at the reporter who was asking, this is a provocation.

With the help of the translator, Marin replied, "Because of the version, there are too many tank-type heroes on the list now, so it may not be as carry as before, but it can be won." ”

"May I ask Wei Shen, if you have a break for today, do you have any plans?"

Godv: "Just... Training, training, sleeping, eating, no more. ”

"May I ask Marin, now that you have aligned with the top laners in the other five regions, which top laner do you have the most impression on?"

Marin: "It's pretty much the same. ”

......

The day after the match, Su Yi and the others were nervously preparing for the knockout round, and the official arranged an event to bring some Riot foreign staff to visit EDG and Snake's clubs.

At the same time, the transfer period in various major regions is still ongoing, for example, YellowStar announced its return to European giants Fnatic after a round in the United States...

The semi-finals will be held on May 13 and May 14, and the match between LGD and SKT is scheduled for the 13th!

Because LGD is the first in the group, the 1st, 3rd, and 5th games are on the blue side, which can be regarded as some advantages, and Su Yi will certainly not waste this advantage, and is ready to surprise SKT on BP!

Before the semi-finals began, some self-media began to dig some data of LGD in the group stage in order to gain popularity, which did attract a lot of attention, because it was over, and besides, LGD's own data is indeed beautiful.

In terms of output, except for the jungler, the upper and middle AD are ranked first.

In terms of the average output of the top order, Marin ranked first with 433, followed by Duke and 415, and only the two of them had an average damage of more than 400.

The third-place CLG top laner Darshan has only 374 average output, followed by SUP top laner fabFab's 356, G2 top laner Kikis is fifth with 339, and FW top laner MMD is sixth with 319, but he is not at the bottom, because SUP has two top laners, and the other Thaldrin is at the bottom with an average output of 289.

In the jungler position, Condi, who has an average output of 404 points, is unfortunately in second place, and the first place is Blank, who has an average output of 488 points, and his damage in a few games is really too high.

In terms of average output in the mid laner position, godv is only three points ahead of the second, he is 667, and the second maple is 664.

As for faker, because of the problem of heroes, after all, he played Lulu time, so he only ranked fourth, with an average output of 565.

The data speaks, in the professional arena, the output of ADC is indeed the highest, because on the AD average output list, two exceed 700, one is 699, and the lowest is 587!

In first place is the 773 of the imp, the second is the bang767, and the third is the Stixxay of CLG, 699.

PYL also has the number one data, the proportion of damage taken and the proportion of injuries taken, in this regard, the Grim Reaper is definitely not called in vain!

Some media also gave a comparison of the data of LGD and SKT, and counted the average data of the last five games.

In terms of winning rate, LGD is 100% and SKT is 60%.

Average time per game: Both teams are surprisingly the same, both with 36 minutes.

KDA:LGD5.3,SKT4.6。

Average kills per game: LGD17.4, SKT14.6.

Average deaths per game: LGD9.5, SKT11.6.

One blood rate: LGD: 100%, SKT 20%.

Xiaolong control rate: LGD83%, SKT 55%.

Average big dragon per game: LGD1.2, SKT0.4.

Make-up per minute: LGD31.3, SKT33.2.

Plug-ins per minute: LGD3.9, SKT3.8.

Eye row per minute: LGD1.65, SKT1.67.

...

A total of 20 data items are listed, with LGD leading 14 and SKT 4, both of which are the same.

Meanwhile, in the group stage, Bang became the first player to have more than 100 mid-season kills, reaching 107. Prior to that, the highest cumulative number of kills was held by EDG's deft with 87 kills.

The previous record for cumulative assists held by EDGmeiko was also broken by members of the SKT team who participated in MSI twice in a row, yes, wolf, who accumulated 242 assists.

As the saying goes, there are gains and losses, and Wolf's cumulative number of deaths is also the highest, with a total of 99 deaths in two sessions, and he is about to usher in his 100th death...

......

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is May 13th.

In the past few days, Su Yi has not made major adjustments, but only added some details, because he conducted the study of SKT as early as the beginning of the season.

Before the game, the official favored EDG's Abu and clearlove in the commentary booth, and when asked who had the better chance of winning, both of them did not hesitate to answer that LGD had a better chance of winning.

The director said: "If BP has no problem, LGD should win. ”

But this is not the point, but the director of the factory is on the hot search because he wears a ring on his finger...

When the promotional videos and cruel videos shot by the two teams before the game were played on the spot, Su Yi and the others were already debugging the equipment, and soon, the game entered the BP interface.

When he saw the familiar BP interface on the player's screen, Su Yi took a deep breath, after more than half a year, he faced SKT again, and the last time was also the semi-finals, he lost that time, but this time, he was more prepared, and Su Yi was full of confidence!

BP started, on the blue side, Su Yi moved the big tree first.

There is no doubt that Marin is still the world's No. 1 top laner, of course, he has to help him play an advantage on the road, so the anti-pressure hero of the big tree must be removed, this hero is now like Orn later, it is easy to force five or five...

It doesn't matter if he is pressed online, when it comes to playing in a group, he is much bigger than many heroes.

On the red side, SKT was the first to move out of the Tsar.

"For the mid lane..."

After thinking about it, Su Yi moved to Niu Tou for the second time.

And SKT's second move was also given to the lower road, removing the imp's rats.

The third move, Su Yi still gave the top order, moved away Ike, he wanted to yin SKT.

The red side moved people for the third time, and KKOMA still gave the mid laner and moved Ruiz.

Su Yi understood, obviously, they wanted to give the counter position to faker, so they removed Ruiz and Tsar, who were the most difficult targets in the current version.

Seeing SKT's idea of moving, Su Yi felt that this kkoma should not give faker a protective mid-laner, and would play the line for the big demon king.

Looking at the moves on both sides, Miller said: "We saw that in the first game, the BPs on both sides were more conventional. ”

Doll said: "It's more conventional, but it's a little bit different from what we imagined, because LGD didn't leave a hero in the first hand position who might improve the whole team a lot after grabbing it." ”

"What's worth grabbing now?" Miller fell into thought.

Su Yi didn't give Miller time to think, and directly locked Lucian, and in the last game of the group stage, imp faced Lucian of Bang, and still suffered a small loss, although there was a relationship with the help of other people on the other side, but the result was like this, their next tower was pushed off by SKT first.

This time, Su Yi was ready to let imp cool up.

On the red side, on the first and second floors, Duke and Blank quickly locked down Bobbi and the male gun.

The big tree Ike is gone, and the remaining Poppy of the Three Phantom Gods is the highest priority. As for the male gun, as mentioned earlier, the average output of blank is very high, because of a few games, and in those games, there is a male gun he used...

Back to the blue side, on the second and third floors, Su Yi first chose a leopard girl for Condi, and then asked Godv to help Pyl rob a Bron, since he robbed Lucian, of course he had to match a Bron.

Miller couldn't help but say: "Now LGD is very lacking in control, and Shangzhong must make up for some control, otherwise the entire lineup will not be able to open the group." ”

"How about a Lisandro in the middle lane?" As soon as the doll's voice fell, I saw that SKT had chosen Xivir Gasokara on the third and fourth floors.

Miller said: "Lisandro is still possible, but Lisandro is a little afraid of the wheel mother and the wet nurse, she may not be able to determine anyone, and she will be silent when she enters..."

"We saw that Bang and Wolf really put all their attention on the right line, and our commentator just said that Wolf will not go away, he just puts all his energy into taking care of Bang, and Bang is now the mainstay of the team."

In the end, Su Yi asked IMP and PYL to lock up the enchantress and trolls.

Troll,It's the hole card prepared by Su Yi.,In the previous group stage,Never used a troll for Marin.,This game,Move the big tree and Ike in front.,It's also for the yin SKT hand.,The troll is counter Bobby's!

To the last hand of the red side, Wolf directly locked a hero in seconds, and when he saw this hero, there was a burst of cheers at the scene.

"Oh, I directly locked the little fishman in seconds, the enchantress beat the little fishman, this mid-lane matchmaking is exciting!"

As the doll was talking, she saw godv and faker invariably change the summoner's skill to teleportation: "Both sides of the mid laner have been replaced with teleportation, and SKT made a change after suffering a double teleportation loss in the last game of the group stage." ”

"But we all know that the moment the little fishman teleports to the ground, the combat power is stronger than that of the enchantress."

In the end, the lineups of both sides are as follows:

Blue LGD: Top laner Troll, Jungler Leopard Girl, Mid Single Enchantress, ADC Lucian, Support Bron.

Red side SKT: Top Single Bobby, Jungler Gun, Mid Single Small Fishman, ADC Sivir, Auxiliary Nurse.
