G2perkz: "We've come so far, we've only been aiming for the championship, and after beating RNG, we've got the experience to beat LpL, and then we're going to go to the finals and beat IG!" "Perkz is the most upright and doesn't even want to mention AFs.

In perkz's mind, it is already IG who has been promoted. "Last year, when I lost to G2 in the group stage, those two defeats have always inspired me, and I still remember them vividly. ”

"This time, I want to reach the finals, collide with IG again, and want to get back what I lost on the highest competitive stage!" Jensen's words are truly touching.

Every pro has a goal. In the past, it may have been to defeat the previous dynasty, and defeat Faker to become a god.

And now times have changed. IG is about to establish a second dynasty, and in this case, he has also been defeated by this second dynasty, and it is this perseverance that has allowed him to persist until now and reach the semi-finals of the World Championship!

Every year of C9, it is unexpected. This year they want to be the team that everyone didn't expect!

AfsKiin: "A lot of the crowd doesn't believe us right now, probably because we didn't particularly please the crowd in the group stage, but since beating EdG, we've found the right way to face the best team in the world. ”

"I believe that as long as we can beat IG, we can win the championship!" IG's credibility has always existed.

And this credibility comes from the strength of IG itself. This team, a powerful triple C, is paired with a world-class support handsome.

Even Ning, who is relatively mediocre in the team, has grown into a first-class jungler now.

Coupled with the fact that Kt and RNG fell together in the quarterfinals, this made IG's credibility even stronger. At least for now, everyone thinks IG will be the overall champion of the year.

If IG will lose, then the one who beats him must be the champion. This is the credibility of IG! IGRookie: "Everyone says we're a new dynasty, but I think we're a little bit away from the dynasty, and when we win the second title, we'll be one step closer to the dynasty and we'll try to make IG the first dynasty team in LpL." "There is a little bit of arrogance in the humility.

And the arrogant capital lies in its own hard power. The current IG is qualified to say such things.

At the end of the promotional video, the smell of gunpowder in the semi-finals was not as strong as imagined. In the past, when there was GENG or SKt, it was very exciting to look forward to the plot and direction of the next semi-finals.

But what's the game with these three teams right now? AFs, the Korean team is not enough. C9, although it is the light of North America, the word often carries some irony.

G2, pure and pure fun people. Each of these three teams does not seem to pose a threat to IG.

At least that's what the LpL audience thinks. But with Kt and RNG, two teams that have learned from the past, IG fans are extra worried.

There is no way, you can still seek psychological comfort if you lose to the South Korean team. After all, from 2013 to 2016, every year was like this.

But losing to the teams in the European and American divisions, I probably couldn't help it. Of course, fans naturally want to win more, and there is nothing more rewarding than winning the S Championship in a row.

October 27th. The semi-finals have officially kicked off. G2 vs. C9! The showdown between the top four between Europe and the United States has made foreign viewership reach the highest in history.

It's hard to imagine that one day, European and American teams will meet in the top four! At this time, the audience on both sides is looking forward to the stage of their own regional teams entering the finals!

In the first game of bo5 on both sides, Wunder came directly to the next game. The top single sacrificed Victor, and Nakano took the enchantress + blind monk who was very strong in the early linkage, and the end of the road + Luo.

G2's Adc has always played its own game. Don't talk about any down-lane combinations that don't match, play just don't match.

In this matchup, G2's three-way advantage crushed the game. With the perfect rhythm of Nakano, the upper and lower lanes are also driven.

G2 easily won the game with a large score of 20-3 in 25 minutes and 11 seconds in the first game.

In the second game of BO5, C9 began to exert force. Every time they choose BP, they play restraint.

On the road, he continued to put Victor, and he directly took a hand of top Ike. Use Lisandro in the middle to go to Conte your enchantress.

The jungler chooses a male gun and makes up the output. Lucian + Bron in the lower lane, playing the early advantage on the line. Compared to RNG, the bp of c9 is much more perfect.

With such a lineup, even if Lucian can't play with an advantage, he will at least have a men's gun guarantee. will not fall into the embarrassing picture of four guarantees and one.

At the beginning of the game, after the C9 lineup was selected, the early handling was still not too good. But with the c9 after a few waves of arrests, plus the characteristics of G2's love for waves, a few waves of adult heads were sent to c9.

Until 19 minutes and 34 seconds, when Xiaolong fought in a team battle, C9 directly won the team in a wave of 2 for 5, and under the huge economic lead, the team battle has been winning.

The time was fixed at 32 minutes and 18 seconds, and C9 won this point to equalize the score. Seeing this, everyone is clear that c9 and G2 are equal in strength.

To put it bluntly, whoever enters the finals will be the dish of the other half of the district. When I think of this, AFs are full of fighting spirit.

If the glory of LcK is recast in the era of SKt's decline, such a thing will surely allow them to attract countless fans in a short period of time and create greater business value.

In the third game of bo5, G2 directly selected the son of the current version on bp, Sword Demon and Sword Sister. The middle and upper are determined, and the lower road is directly taken out.

The support starts to wander, and the jungler picks a hero with a little AP like the barrel. In this game, C9 got the advantage in the early stage.

And the advantage continues to expand, and by the time the time the clock reaches 21 minutes, the c9's economy is 5K ahead.

In this case, as long as C9 stabilizes its rhythm and doesn't do some risky things, there is a high probability that it will be able to win this game.

However, playing C9 made a mistake. In the mid-game, Svenskeren tries to force a wave of monsters against him, but the jungle is caught.

And the jungler died for a while, G2 seized this wave of opportunities and directly started the big dragon. C9, which has a big advantage, naturally doesn't want to let go of this big dragon easily.

Let's not talk about losses, just because they have such a big advantage, they won't let it go. So C9 opted for a wave of four to five.

And the handling of G2's side is very good, G2 gave up playing Dalong as soon as possible and directly fought with C9 head-on.

After a wave of team battles, G2 took advantage of the numerical advantage, plus the lack of damage of c9, and played a wave of 1 for 3.

After this wave of team battles, G2's disadvantage turned into an advantage, and C9's mentality collapsed a little. The big advantage in the early stage, because of the wave of junglers burying the wild area, was destroyed in an instant.

Although the G2 took out Dalong, the economies of the two sides are still equal. But the C9 side is obviously bigger and more chaotic.

In the last wave of team battles, G2 won a wave of 3 for 5 and successfully won the third game.

BO5 Fourth Game, Match Point Game. C9 didn't sacrifice its own time system as usual.

Instead, he took a very solid lineup. However, C9 was still affected by the third game, and the explosion in the early stage made C9 unable to maintain a good attitude to play this game.

The time was fixed at 38 minutes, and G2 pushed off the main base of C9 and won the victory. In the final semi-finals, G2 defeated C9 3-1 and successfully advanced to the final!

Perkz was very arrogant and happy after the game. It seems that even he didn't expect that after the defeat of S7, S8 would be able to rush to the finals with the team he built again!

And the initiators of all this are handsome! Last year's encouragement rekindled his fighting spirit.

Including when defeating RNG, every revenant under his Enchantress inspires him to keep moving forward!

After the game, LpL was very intense!

"IG must help RNG take revenge, this G2 can still enter the finals, it's really convinced!"

"From the current point of view, G2 still has some strength, not to mention the middle lane, they are on the road wunder in the quarterfinals, pressing Letme by nearly 400 knives."

"Letme was pressed by theshy in the league for so many times, and he hasn't grown up until the World Championship, so what about therang?"

"G2 enters the finals, IG plays hard, preferably 3-0, the kind that ends in an hour!

"Don't IG beat G2, are you familiar with RNG? On the day G2 won, perkz went to talk and laugh with handsome! ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Is handsome Chinese? It is recommended to expel the nationality and let him join Europe, don't come back \/ Sima face"

"Oh no, do you really think LpL is LRL? I think LpL is an annex of your RNG, don't be ashamed, okay, promote the all-Chinese class every year, I think it's the all-uproar class, only the dog barks. ”

"Seriously, I like handsome......"

"......" was discussed in China, and the quarrel began. This is a feature of the national uniform. You have to fight for everything.

Although the result is nothing, this is the tone of contention. And when I saw G2 win c9, there was silence in the IG backstage lounge.

That was until JKL spoke: "Brother, we've been playing training matches with G2 lately, and they really made it to the finals." ”

"Stressed?" Liu Shuai said with a smile.

"No, it feels like they're strong...... JKL's worries come from the fact that G2 has beaten them and often loses to them, but he knows in his heart what kind of strength they have.

Even in the Summer Finals, the last game put a lot of pressure on them. In this case, JKL's concerns are just right.

"There shouldn't be much of a problem, we are crushing the line, which is the lack of their hard power." Rookie said without thinking.

This game, though, now emphasizes teamwork, BP design, and team thinking. But the basis of these is the strength of the players.

When the players are equal, teamwork and BP are very important. But the strength is not equal, but it reflects the strength of the line on the line.

To cite two typical examples, the SKt of the S5 and the SKt of the 5 last year, one is highlighted as strong on the line.

Marin, online killing. Of course, team battles are also indiscriminately killed. Faker's Narez triple control directly controlled the pawn's Lulu numb.

These two single lines had no opponents in the entire world championship at that time. So they also went all the way to the S5 world championship.

Last year's IG, although the lower road is often a disadvantage. But only after the middle and upper get the advantage of the line, can Liu Shuai better swim.

"So you don't have to worry, what we need to worry about is that in the next matchup, if you win the AFs, you can think about how to face G2." MAFA coaches bring everyone's minds back to reality.

Coach mafa, his coaching ability can only be described as average in LpL. Even most of BP's designs and ideas were learned from Liu Shuai.

It's not as good as LpL's only cow coach - Redmi. But one of the strengths of MAFA coaches is that he is very tolerant of the players and can also remind the players what to do and how to make amends.

From this point of view, the lack of Coach Kim has reduced the anxiety of IG players. …… Oct. 28, 4 p.m.

Gwangju Women's University Universiade Gymnasium. The audience at the scene, LcK and LpL fans were five and a half minutes.

For LcK, although the strength gap between AFs and IG is significant, there is still a glimmer of hope.

What if you win? There are also a lot of cheers and coS outside the venue. This game is considered a green garlic for LpL and LcK.

Originally, LcK was counting on Kt to wrestle with IG, but Kt fell into the hands of C9, and AFs could only complete this mission.

LpL Studios. This year's commentary still followed the team to the scene. Outside the studio, you can see the stadium and the auditorium.

And this game was naturally handed over to the commentary of the three relative veterans, Remember, Guan Zeyuan and Rita.

"Okay, welcome to the live broadcast of the 2018 World Championship semifinals, hello everyone, I'm Remember!"

"Hello everyone, I'm Zeyuan."

"Hi, I'm Rita!"

"After more than a month of competition, the four teams in the final semi-finals have been decided, and yesterday, G2 also successfully entered the final round."

"If, I said yes, if IG can make it to the finals, I think IG still has to be careful with G2, after all, they won RNG, if they don't have anything in their hands, I feel like they can't win RNG." Remember speaking of this, Guan Zeyuan interjected: "Actually, I think that the biggest influencing factor for G2 to win RNG is not strength, but mentality, G2 themselves felt that they couldn't beat RNG before the game, but they were able to win, that is, with a better mentality, plus they were under grams, not so much pressure, so that they won the most critical fifth game." ”

"Then back to this game, IG vs. AFs, I think IG should have no problem playing their original strength." As soon as Guan Zeyuan finished saying this, a similar one was brushed out again in the barrage

"Shut up",

Words like "shut up". The RNG of the quarterfinals has been taken out of his mouth. The big guy doesn't want to see IG mouthed.

After the three commentators chatted for a while about the player status hero pool and the like, Remeber saw the entry of the players on the scene and said, "Next, let's take a look at the starters of the players on both sides!" "IG is still theshy, Ning, Rookie, Jackeylove and Fs starters as always, with top lane Kiin, jungler Spirit, middle lane Kuro, bottom lane Kramer and tusin.

The two players entered, and after the introduction of the scene, the cheers of the handsome were even higher than that of every AFs player.

You know, this is LcK's home stadium! After the introduction of the players, the commentary seat continued to idle for a while, and soon the screen was given to the BP interface!

LpL and the only remaining team in the LcK region have a final fierce collision!
