Chapter 316: The era that belonged to Faker is over, and now is the era that belongs to me Dark!
When the confident voice of the G2 coach fell, the faces of the G2 players finally showed a smile of victory.
Because Coach G2 is right, since the start of the 2019 MSI, although they have played three BO5 matches against Team JGD, Team GRF and Team IG in a row.
However, the result of the three BO5s was a 9-0 clean sheet, which led to them not playing their 100 per cent strength.
Even because the strength of these three teams is too weak, some of the hole card heroes prepared in advance by G2 players have not been given the opportunity to appear on the stage at all.
Therefore, in this case, tomorrow will usher in the last BO5 final of the G2 team, and they will also use their fullest form and the most fiery fighting spirit to defeat the SKT team and lift the third MSI championship trophy belonging to the G2 team!
"Okay, since everyone is full of confidence, then when we wait for a while to shoot a promotional video with the SKT team, you must not lose in momentum."
"By the way, on the way to the shooting site in a while, I will also introduce you to the specific situation of the SKT team again."
"Just like Dark said before, they have an old saying in China, which is called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent and winning all battles."
"So tomorrow's finals, we G2 will definitely win!"
The G2 coach said with a smile, then beckoned the players to pack up their belongings, and then left the hotel together and headed to the location of the official Riot trailer.
Taking advantage of the time on the road, Coach G2 also took everyone to watch today's match between Team SKT and Team IG, and once again introduced the general situation of the five players of Team SKT.
Compared to the SKT team in MSI two years ago, this year's SKT team has undergone drastic changes in terms of lineup.
Except for the mid laner who is still the Faker Demon King, the remaining four team members have all been replaced.
Top laner Khan, the current second top laner in the LCK, and the first is Sword, the top laner of the GRF team.
Although Khan is the second for the time being, his combat effectiveness is not far behind, not only is the single-belt fighter very slippery, but the functional tank is also very reliable.
At the same time, Khan is still very famous among LPL fans, because in March of this year, in a Hanbok qualifying match, Khan once said a remark that made all LPL fans angry, that is, "Five Chinese people can't win".
Since then, this person has been on the blacklist of LPL fans, but because the LPL all-Chinese class has never had a chance to prove itself, they have no way to refute Khan's statement.
Jungler Clid is also a player that LPL fans are very familiar with, because last year, Clid played the S8 World Championship as a player of the JDG team.
But everyone knows the result, because the JDG team is the first year to enter the World Championship, and Clid, as a Korean aid player, always plays some outrageous operations when facing the LCK team, so after the JDG team was out of the group stage, he was angrily sprayed by LPL fans as loyal to the country.
After Clid returned to the LCK and joined the SKT team this year, he seemed to have changed his previous "cowardice" in the LPL region, and played extremely fiercely, so he successfully helped the SKT team win the LCK Spring Championship.
But the fact that "pulling the crotch in the LPL is fierce in the LCK" also seems to prove the fact that Clid was loyal to his country at the World Championship last year.
Teddy, a lower-lane player, seems to have a lower presence in the SKT team than his predecessor Bang, but in fact, Teddy's "stability" is an indispensable part of the SKT team's victory.
However, this is actually a good thing for the G2 team, because Teddy is not as aggressive on the line, so it gives Perkz more stage and room to play.
Support player Mata, an old acquaintance of League of Legends viewers around the world, after all, he is the finals FMVP of the S4 season world champion SSW team!
Although since winning the World Championship, Mata players have been in a state of "displacement", and have successively switched to VG teams, RNG teams, KT teams and SKT teams in the LPL region.
But no matter what team Mata is on, he's one of the thighs in the team!
And this year, when Mata officially joined Team SKT and became Faker's teammate, his ability was once again fully utilized, and he was able to make it to the finals of this MSI after winning the LCK Spring Championship!
"These four players are actually more difficult to deal with, especially the Mata player, hi Lisan, you must pay attention when you are on the line, and you must not give any chance as much as possible."
"But to be honest, even if these four people are difficult, it's actually okay, and the thing we need to pay attention to the most is the mid laner Faker of the SKT team."
After a brief introduction to the four players of the SKT team, the G2 coach smiled wryly and said solemnly.
"Originally, after the loss of the SKT team in the S7 World Championship, I thought that the Faker players were going downhill, but the slump in the S8 World Championship last year confirmed my idea."
"But who would have thought that Faker is worthy of Faker, and he will be reinvigorated this year!"
"Caps, you've seen his whole MSI performance, and you have to be vigilant at tomorrow's finals and not give any chance."
"Dark, can you officially kill the gods tomorrow, and then replace Faker as the new world leader in League of Legends, but it depends on tomorrow's final!"
Coach G2 said to Caps earnestly, and then suddenly changed his voice and looked at Dark with a determined gaze.
"Replace Faker and become the new world first?"
Hearing the words of the G2 coach, Dark muttered and repeated, his feelings quite complicated.
Because to be honest, after winning two MSI championships and two S championships in a row, facing the former big demon king Faker, he actually no longer feels that he is his opponent.
After all, to use a phrase often said by the majority of netizens, he Dark is now a god who is going up the mountain, and he Faker is a god who is going down the mountain.
But even so, when it comes to the title of "League of Legends No. 1", at least 80% of the world's players still think of Faker instead of Dark.
The reason is very simple, that is, even if Faker has not achieved any results in the past two years, his S Match Triple Crown is still the best result in the current League of Legends World Championship!
So if you want to really replace Faker and become the first person in the new League of Legends, what Dark can do is to face Faker again and defeat him strongly!
And now, tomorrow's MSI Finals is Dark's best chance!
"I said a few years ago that the era of belonging to the LCK is over, and the era of belonging to the LEC is next."
"Now, then, let's let the era of Faker truly end."
"Next, it's my Dark era!"
Looking out the window at the bright moon, Dark clenched his fists and cut the railroad to the point.
After all, fighting with the LPL region has never been his ultimate goal in coming to the G2 team to play professionally.
His ultimate goal is to establish the G2 dynasty and become an existence that the whole world needs to look up to, including LPL!
"Okay, that's a good sentence, you'd better put it in when you make a promotional video later."
Hearing Dark's bold words, everyone in G2 was overjoyed, and then agreed.
At the same time, because of Dark's ambition, during the video shooting of the finals promotional video, everyone in G2 was also determined to win, and the G2 coach was very satisfied.
But for the SKT players, they didn't feel any cowardice because the G2 players were in the driver's seat.
In order to win the final MSI finals tomorrow, the players of the SKT team are also full of momentum and pride!
……
The night passed.
The next day, May 22, 2019, finally arrived quietly.
Early in the morning, League of Legends viewers around the world focused their attention on the upcoming 2019 MSI Grand Finals this afternoon.
Because just after the end of BO5 in this finals, the question of whether it is "Faker's old gods take the curtain call" or "Dark's new gods ascend the throne" will get an accurate answer!
And for fans in all LPL regions, the answer to this question is also very concerned about them.
Although there are no LPL teams participating in today's finals, their attention is still not inferior to yesterday's lower bracket finals.
After all, today's finals are not only a showdown between G2 and SKT, but also a reunion between Dark and Faker!
But in fact, no matter who wins or loses, LPL fans are not very acceptable.
Because if the Faker player wins the championship, then the Faker Great Demon King will completely become the eternal nightmare of the LPL region, and become a heart demon that the LPL region can never defeat.
And if Dark wins the championship, then he will not only "do what he says" and become the second "dark cloud" in the LPL region, but also make the entire LPL region look extremely embarrassed in the past two years!
Both results are unacceptable to LPL fans, but if they have to make a choice, then they can only choose the lesser of two powers, and choose the result that is less harmful to the LPL region.
That's Team SKT winning the championship, and Faker King is back!
Although even so, Dark's previous remarks about scolding the LPL region will be confirmed once again, but as long as Dark doesn't win the MSI triple championship and become the new "first person in the League of Legends" as an "LPL outcast", then LPL fans can bear it!
So, in line with the idea of "don't think about it if I'm not happy", the majority of LPL fans instantly became the "ten-year old fans" of Faker players before the game, and began to cheer for the SKT team.
But if Dark had learned about him, he would have sneered and scolded him with contempt......
Dogs can't change eating! The mud doesn't make it up to the wall!
Just as countless League of Legends viewers around the world began to cheer for the G2 team and the SKT team before the game, the 2019 MSI Grand Finals promotional video was finally officially released by Riot at 12 p.m. China time after a morning of intense post-production.
As countless impatient netizens clicked into the video, they also saw the victory declaration of the players of both teams for tonight's MSI finals for the first time!
The first to leave the country was Mata, a support player for the SKT team.
"The whole MSI of the SKT team is still playing hard, but once we find the feeling and direction, you will see where our horror is!"
The next person to appear on the camera was Caps, a mid-laner from the G2 team.
"It's a huge challenge to face the SKT team in the finals, after all, the word SKT doesn't need to be explained at all, but even so, we will definitely win the finals and continue the dynasty of the G2 team!"
The third player to appear is Khan, the top laner of the SKT team.
"Although the G2 team is very strong, but so far, they have only played a total of 3 BO5s, and we have played 4 BO5s and gained more game experience than the G2 team, so the 5th BO5, the SKT team that is getting better and better, will definitely be able to beat the G2 team and create a victory that belongs to the lower bracket champions!"
The fourth player to appear is Perkz, the bottom laner of the G2 team.
"If we can't win this MSI championship, then Team G2 will become a joke all over the world, so our goal for the whole team is to win, which is to win the MSI three times in a row!"
The fifth person to appear is Faker, the mid-laner of the SKT team!
"Two years ago at MSI, I lost to G2 in the semi-finals, and two years later, I don't want to repeat the same mistakes, I will announce to the world with a crisp victory, Shurima, your emperor is back!"
The last one to appear is Dark, the jungler of the G2 team!
"Every old king wants to return again, and every old king doesn't want to see the end of his dynasty."
"But what I want to say is that the old era will eventually pass, and the new era will eventually come!"
"And then, it's my Dark era!"
Facing the camera, when the majestic Dark said his domineering lines, the background music of the promotional video suddenly accelerated the drumbeat, which suddenly made all the audience feel the solemn atmosphere on the eve of the finals.
And when all the members of the G2 team and the SKT team stood opposite each other and showed fierce eyes, the trophy belonging to the MSI championship also slowly appeared between the two teams.
It's just that its final ownership is still undecidable between the two teams.
They will have to go through a hard-fought BO5 Grand Final to qualify for the 2019 MSI Championship Trophy!
……
So, in the warm-up of the promotional video of the finals, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the opening ceremony of the 2019 MSI finals officially began!
As usual, after a wonderful and short opening ceremony performance, in the excited shouts of the host on the spot, the players of both teams officially appeared in the spotlight in turn!
"First of all, let's have Team SKT, the spring champion from the LCK region!"
"They are, top laner Khan, jungler Clid, mid laner Faker, bottom laner Teddy, and support Mata!"
"Then, let's have the Spring champion G2 team from the LEC region!"
"They are, top laner Wunder, jungler Dark, mid laner Caps, bottom laner Perkz, and support Hylissang!"
"Sword casts glory, aspires to legend!"
"I announce that the 2019 MSI Mid-Season Finals are now officially underway!"
In the next moment, amid the shouts of the host and the cheers of the audience, with the end of the opening ceremony of the finals, the next step will be the decisive moment of the global League of Legends audience, the final moment of the finals BO5! (End of chapter)
