On the day of the final.

The venue was crowded with people.

In fact, from the perspective of the nature of the continental competition, the so-called BO5 in this final is almost exactly the same as the BO1 in the previous group stage.

However, the "groupness" of BO5 has made countless audiences look forward to it.

After all, when it comes to foreign warfare, even if it is an enemy on weekdays, it will unite when the enemy is at the head.

Only LPL fans can feel the charm of this continental competition.

The South Korean team arrived at the stadium about an hour and a half early.

The four teams chattered in the break room discussing today's tactics.

It's just that this tactic isn't in-game.

But...... How to arrange the order of the playing teams.

At this juncture, the tactical ideas of each team have been basically smoothed, and even if they don't have a smooth temporary cram, it's too late.

Kkoma is highly respected in the field of coaching in South Korea, and as a coach who is regarded as the backbone of this time, he clearly knows that in terms of comprehensive strength, LCK ...... It's really inferior to LPL.

The other coaches have complained more or less in private, thinking that there is a problem with the Riot competition system.

In their opinion, most of the LCK teams are good at playing BO5, which is the kind of real BO5, not a superficial BO5 like the continental tournament, but actually a BO1.

After all, there are too many variables in BO1.

But Kkoma thinks from the bottom of his heart that everything is an excuse if he loses.

If you don't want to make excuses to cover up your embarrassment after losing, then don't lose.

Before the referee came over and asked for the roster, Kkoma gathered all the players and coaches together for a serious meeting.

Under the gaze of everyone, Kkoma said very calmly: "Kids, you may not be familiar with the format this time, but after all, this is still a BO5, and we have an advantage in the BO5 that the LPL division does not have." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's ears pricked up.

"That's our mentality."

Kkoma said: "In the LPL's view, the first game of BO5 is very crucial, and if they lose, it will have a great impact on their morale, so according to the unanimous judgment of me and several coaches, the LPL region will most likely send their most stable team, and who their most stable team is, I believe you all know." ”

The players present all nodded subconsciously.

So far this season, the LPL division has ...... and even the whole world deserves to be the hegemon.

EDG。

And Kkoma's analysis does make sense.

"If they play on the team of EDG, no matter who we let up, we have no certainty of winning, so I decided that the first game will be on SKT."

Kkoma's words made the faces of the SKT crowd change slightly.

However, immediately after Kkoma's words turned sharply, he looked at the members of his own team and said solemnly: "Children, you don't have any psychological burden, just show all your strength, in their Chinese words, win blood to earn, lose not to lose." ”

As soon as these words came out, the SKT people who were originally a little stressed only felt that their spirits were relieved for the most part, and only faker frowned slightly, not knowing what they were thinking.

The coaches of the other teams made eye contact and nodded secretly.

They admired Kkoma's wrist in their hearts.

In fact, when it came to the stage of the continental competition, the coaches of several teams did not communicate much at the beginning of the group stage.

They all have selfish intentions and don't want to expose too much in the LCK events that may be hostile in the future.

They can't do much to sacrifice the ego and achieve the big self.

The defeat in the group stage made them realize that if they kept that mindset, they would probably have to go home en masse.

Moreover, Kkoma took the initiative to send them an invitation for the entire LCK, and they accepted it after such a smooth push.

Although they had heard of Kkoma's ability for a long time, when Kkoma finished speaking, several other coaches were still taken aback.

Let your own team go to a position where there is a high chance of becoming cannon fodder.

SKT's form this year is indeed not good, which is obvious to all.

Even if they lose to EDG, it doesn't matter much.

But if you win in an upset......

Even if LCK loses the final game, SKT's domestic prestige may soar again.

If you really win blood, you don't lose if you lose.

But this kind of thing, they can't do it if they want to.

If you really do it and lose, I'm afraid you won't be scolded to death.

"I'm sure we're going to win."

Faker said with a serious face.

"Very good, I like your kind of self-confidence, Sanghyuk, I don't need to worry about your mentality, in the face of Xiao Can's words, it should be him who panics, of course, the premise is that we can really meet EDG."

Kkoma is gentle and elegant on the surface, and he is calm and calm.

But in fact, Kkoma didn't have much confidence in his heart.

Everything he says is imaginary, and it's beautiful.

However, as a mature coach, Kkoma knows a little too well that not everything can go as planned.

What if the LPL doesn't send an EDG team? Although in his opinion, this probability is not very large.

Kkoma asked himself if he still knows LPL very well.

It's just that he overlooked one point, LPL...... It's also growing.

At the same time, inside the LPL's backstage lounge.

"Then we decided so."

Abu looked at the coaches of the other three teams, and everyone looked at each other and smiled: "First, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, but we want to play our momentum." ”

"This is what we do best."

King Ning on the side squeezed his hand.

"Be careful, don't roll over."

Li Luo reminded him.

In Li Luo's impression, in order to win the first game in the intercontinental LCK before rebirth, they chose to let KT, which had the best performance in the group stage, fight in the first game.

IG lost to KT in that game.

That's why Li Luo reminded him loudly.

However, at this moment, the referee announced the teams of both sides.

When Li Luo learned that his opponent's first match was SKT, he couldn't help but be a little shocked.

This LCK ...... Playing clever and starting to play tricks?

But the question is, this clever trick is a little crooked, right?

"I'm here to say, if I can go wrong with SKT, I'll eat two tons of upside down, I said it!"

King Ning smiled and said while rubbing his hands.

"Cheat, eat and drink, then I have to let you eat once."

Ah Shui next to him said with a wicked smile after hearing King Ning say this.

"Okay, Yu Wenbo, then you can try it, if you make trouble, I promise to beat you out of the."

"Do you eat then?"

"Uncle Cao, you are really disgusting!"

The two of them engaged in a chase in the lounge.

A moment later.

The first small game of the final kicked off.

IG took the initiative to choose the blue side after getting the right to choose the side first.

In the backstage lounge, Li Luo and a group of players sat around looking at BP.

As BP progressed, the expressions of the players became increasingly weird.

"This SKT ...... Are you sure you want to play with IG like this? ”

Uzi smacked his lips, a little stunned.

I saw that SKT chose a set of ...... A bit of a strange lineup.

Although everyone likes to play AD core in this version, it is also very sophisticated if you want to play AP heroes in the position of AD.

It's not just about judging the hero choices of both sides, it's the most basic ...... You have to think about the player style of each team, right?

On SKT's side, the top single chose a captain, the jungler took the scorpion, and the faker in the middle lane chose a spiritual crocodile on the fifth floor of the Conte seat to supplement his own ad damage, and gave the magic core vampire to the bang on the lower lane.

Vampire plus bull head, this combination is actually okay, at least theoretically there is no problem with obscene development through the early stage.

SKT's lineup is also more comprehensive, with scorpions and crocodiles leading the early and mid-cycle rhythms, helping vampires and boat lengths through difficult developmental periods.

By the time the crocodile fades out of the stage in the later stages, Captain Vampire can take over the game.

Theoretically, nothing is wrong.

Comparable IG lineups......

IG's top order The shy casually chose a sword girl.

King Ning chose a Camille in the jungle and built a bo with Galio in the middle lane Rookie.

Galio's version will be more brittle in the early stage, and according to Faker's idea, use crocodiles to fight and restrict Galio's wandering, which seems to be no problem.

However, if you look at IG's bottom lane duo, you can see the problem.

The lineup selected by IG's bottom lane duo is Delaiwen and Morgana.

After Li Luo saw the lineup combination of the two sides, the corners of his mouth involuntarily showed a smile.

This has a lot of elements.

And judging from the lineup, there is a lot of room for IG to operate.

Even the early script is somewhat similar.

"The IG side is a little irritable, they directly choose five people to invade in a group, but SKT also has a saying! The five of them are all squatting in the grass, The shy is a bit dangerous, he is likely to be killed by the bull head Q in the first grass, but ...... Yes? This shield that Morgana learned at the first level?!

”

On the commentary seat, Guan Zeyuan was stunned.

What the hell.

I just opened the lightning strike today?

The five SKT people have crocodiles, and there is no problem with huddling in an ambush.

Their idea is also very simple, that is, to kill one person in a single second.

But Morgana's Q at level 1 didn't learn to keep people, but instead learned a magic immunity shield, which they didn't expect.

This magic shield shielded Jian Ji from the control of the bull head, and after the bull head Q was in the air, the sword queen backhanded Q to deal damage and pulled away a little at the same time, and at the same time, King Ning's Camille flew and kicked in.

Rookie's Galio W flash taunts five people!

The visual effects of this scene were so shocking that KKOMA, who had just finished BP and went backstage, almost didn't drop his jaw.

Ah Shui's Delaiwen axe flew up and down, and a blood had already arrived!

The beginning of the bloody German text!

Bang dumb eats coptis, and there is bitterness that can't be said.

In order to avoid the strong line, he chose the relatively weak vampire magic core.

It's good now, it was supposed to be the beginning of Hell difficulty, but now it's in Abyss mode.

And this Ning Wang is like a hormone, knowing that faker is not flashing, he level 2 directly came over to E flash E to catch the crocodile, and with Galio's control connection, the crocodile died again.

faker started 0/2.

Level 1 is the one who died.

He learned a W at level 1 and fainted the sword girl.

But because it wasn't red rage, the time of stunting was relatively short, and then his "demon king effect" followed.

Don't ask, to ask is to kill faker.

This is the first goal that many teams around the world take care of when they encounter SKT.

Objectively speaking, this "star" effect also provides some output space for team-based ADGs to a certain extent.

The group went to greet faker, and there were naturally fewer people who greeted him.

Faker level 1 inverts once, level 2 inverts again.

It's already a bit of a collapse in the middle.

At this time, the T emperor who was on the road heard the abuse of Xiba'er.

Faker glanced up the road as he counted the seconds.

Good guys, this T-emperor, is already out of the experience zone.

"He won't even let me blow up the barrel!"

The T Emperor was wronged.

After three minutes on the line, he didn't know who he was, and he even began to wonder if he was still a professional.

He had encountered The shy once in rank before.

That caught The shy with the jungler.,So I didn't think The shy was strong.,It feels like that.,It's just a stunned green.。

But this early alignment directly made him confused.

However, within a moment, a battle broke out on the lower road.

Jacekylove found an opportunity to make a first move, slowing down the vampire with the Axe of Enlightenment.

On the other side, the royal blue pressed into the flash, and the Q skill of a predetermined shot predicted the location of the vampire's flash.

The bull head hurriedly turned around and tried to fly De Lai with W, but when W reached De Laiwen, he only ran into the black shield.

With no way to restrain Delaiwen, he watched Delaiwen fly with his twin axes to kill the vampire first, and then turn around to kill him.

Start five minutes!

The head-to-head ratio of both sides is 4/0!

The scene was already cheering.

But the three people in the commentary seat were a little confused.

Even if SKT is far worse than it was at its peak......

It's not going to be killed like a pig, is it?

A world champion last year, or a world champion without a core.

A world runner-up last year......

Although there are also fewer people.

Now that the intercontinental competition is meeting again, IG has shown a dominance like a dimensionality reduction strike!

"Obediently, Wang Liuyi took the wrong medicine today, is it so ruthless?"

Shi Senming, who was sitting between Uzi and Li Luo, smacked his lips and said.

Meiko, who was holding Erlang's legs on the other side of Li Luo, also nodded thoughtfully: "It's a little sloppy, I have my style." ”

Even Li Luo was a little emotional.

Sapphire is limited by personality, and it is very stable on weekdays...... Of course, judging by the audience's judging criteria, it is very cowardly.

But today, he is so brave.

Judging from the current situation, it is better than the advantage that IG gained in the early stage of playing SKT in the World Championship finals last year.

It's simply ...... Before the jungler has done anything, the upper, middle and lower lines have already blossomed.

The faker who chose a crocodile to come out and wanted to push the Galio line is now pressed under the tower by the Galio push line and can't move.

Play with hair.

The game time is 6 and a half minutes.

Rookie's Galio big move flies down the road, and then helps Delaiwen harvest the two heads.

Xiao Hei, who was already Shi Lezhi, rushed over and gave away an extra one, which was really a buy two get one free.

"What is this SKT playing ......?"

On the commentary seat, Guan Zeyuan was stupid.

In the past, when I was in the LCK, SKT was not without early disadvantages.

But their opponents at that time were not attacking fiercely.

Therefore, SKT is at most when they choose to put the resources on the opposite side, they also choose to put it when they dismantle the tower, and finally they let go of the house when they demolish it.

Don't...... Is IG's offense too strong?

Guan Zeyuan thought in his heart.

Actually, he was right.

SKT has not faced such an offensive team in more than half a year.

There are no rules.

Purely by fighting and personal strength.

This style of play is easy to go wrong, and if a wave of disconnection is caught by a strong team, it is very likely that it will be operated alive.

But they ...... It's a chicken feather team!

The SKT defense tower is falling wildly, and IG doesn't even take the little dragon to kill people like crazy, take the tower, and plunder the wild area.

Looking at the playtime in the upper right corner, everyone at SKT and even Kkoma in the backstage lounge panicked.

They are inferior horses that can be lost.

But you can't lose too badly!

In less than fifteen minutes!

IG Kamikochi is on the ground.

And especially with the canyon pioneers!

"Damn, aren't they going to replicate the Worlds and have a 16-minute showdown?"

Uzi said a little confused.

Li Luo glanced at Uzi and then looked at the big screen.

At this point in time......

A little sensitive.

You must know that when he was in IG, IG had already typed the strange number 1557.

But this is a rhythmic ......

"Push the base, push the base!"

King Ning kicked the vampire like a wolf and a tiger, kicking him unconscious and handing him over directly.

Rookie's Galio ultimate follows up, and although the vampire handed over the pool of blood, he was taken away by Delaiwen's axe as soon as he emerged!

"It's a wave!"

Jackeylove was screaming too.

He kept his eyes on the time in the upper right.

This time...... There is a saying!

At this time, SKT was powerless to parry, and could only watch the base crystal being destroyed by this group of wolf-like men!

Finally, the summoner crystal freezes!

"Grass!"

King Ning smashed the table and said a little depressedly: "It's just a little bit!" Just a little bit! ”

I saw the end of the game time above, 15 minutes and 58 seconds.

ps: It's coming, it's coming~
