It has to be mentioned.

Since the start of S9, IG's dominating performance in S8 is no longer so solid.

The most typical example is the LPL Spring Tournament.

Although I only lost one FPX, the others were still all wins, but many times it was dragged to 2:1, and the game time would go to 30 minutes later, and it was not so easy to win.

This is not only the reason why Lu Shen is not playing.

There are also problems within the team itself.

For example, Nosuke, Ning Wang and Baolan are obviously not so consistent this season.

The performance of the three Cs is as good as ever.

But it's still the same sentence, teams all over the world are studying IG!

No matter how strong you are, after being studied a lot, you will always be targeted and your play will be restricted!

Just like Marin at the beginning, after coming to LPL, he was taken care of like never before, and he directly gave people a psychological shadow.

It's the same with IG.

In the face of the targeted tactics that other strong teams racked their brains to come up with, it became inevitable that there would be defeats.

Soon.

The third game was played under the watchful eyes of countless spectators.

This time, the G2 seems to have undergone a more radical tweak.

In the case of the first four hands being mediocre, the fifth hand hides a large one.

That's right – Pike!

But it's not an assist, it's a mid-laner!

For a while, the commentary on the scene became a lot louder.

"Huh? G2, is this trying to treat others the way they do? ”

"Don't say it, this hand feels like a great choice, their lineup is just missing a harvesting position!"

"If this Pike can develop normally, there is too much room to play in team fights!"

Don't talk about the commentary.

Even everyone on IG's side was stunned for a long time after seeing this Pike.

Wait until the game starts.

In the early and middle periods, IG did gain a lot of advantages by virtue of its strong online, but unfortunately this advantage was not big enough to be converted into a victory.

Wait until the middle and late stages of the resource group station to start frequent outbreaks.

As Pike on the G2 side continues to get heads in team battles, the gap between the two sides is rapidly narrowing!

In just a few minutes, G2 has completed the economic overtake!

Finally, 28 minutes, the Dragon Soul Group.

With the advantage of vision, G2 opened a wave of top-level groups, crippled everyone in IG, and gave Caps' Pike a harvesting environment.

A wave of four kills returns the salute and ends the game!

The score of the two sides was pulled back to 1:2!

Inside the lounge.

"Don't worry, don't worry, stabilize your mentality!"

Mafa and Su Xiaoluo stood in front of the crowd and kept talking: "Isn't it just a Pike, if they dare to choose, we will target him to the death, and just give him a breakdown in the line period!" ”

The IG crowd listened silently and couldn't stop nodding.

Pike, the hero, no matter where he is, actually has the meaning of 'strange tricks'.

Once it is identified by the opposite side, it is easy to be targeted, after all, this thing has too poor ability to push the line, and the strength of the line can be said to be extremely low.

So there's a high probability that G2 won't have another Pike.

Soon, the break ended, and the fourth game came as scheduled.

Just as they expected.

This time, G2's lineup is quite conventional, with Uenakano selecting the prince, the tsar, and the sword girl, who have nothing to do with Pike.

But, wait until the second round of BP begins.

On the fourth and fifth floors of G2, Kai'Sa was directly and unexpectedly snatched away!

Who said that this hero is only used by LPL people!

"G2 snatches Kaisha! Kasumi and Varus have been banned, so there are very few options for IG to get down! ”

"Or, directly Draven?"

"No, the first thing to do is a toad, and it's hard to choose Delevingne."

It's the same as the commentary.

In this game, G2 made a considerable degree of targeting in the AD position.

After hesitating for a long time, IG finally chose EZ with a panacea.

The game begins.

This time, G2 changed its previous style and learned the operation and play style of SKT, developing, operating, and exchanging resources, and constantly pushing back the game time!

After 30 minutes, Kai'Sa and the Tsar all came out in a three-piece suit and took over the game directly!

38 minutes.

Ancient Dragon Regiment, G2 relied on the terrifying output ability of Double C, and in the frontal team battle, IG was completely defeated, and a wave of three for five was played!

The resurrection time is too long, and the IG Heights have long been broken.

The surviving double C on the G2 side carried the line of troops, and easily bulldozed the IG base.

This was the end of the game.

"Amount"

On the commentary seat, the three official commentators fell silent for a while.

In the end, I still remember to cough lightly and said: "It can be seen that G2 is quite well prepared for this game, whether it is the lineup routine or the style of play, they have made a lot of attempts." ”

"In short, I still want to congratulate them, win two games in a row, and pull the score back to 2:2!"

"IG is going to come on, the last game is a life and death game for both sides! Crucial! Whoever wins will directly lift the championship trophy of this year's MSI! ”

"Then let's wait for the final result together."

"In the end, IG lived up to expectations, defended the title, and continued their rule."

"Or G2 has completed the incredible letting two chase three, let IG step down from the altar, and the new king will ascend the throne!"

"Later, let's move on."

No doubt.

When it comes to this situation, IG fans who were still in control of the victory before have begun to panic a little.

No way, from 2:0 to 2:2, I was pulled two games in a row, this is special, can you not panic!

You don't really want to be chased by two, right?!

That's a lot of fun!

The myth of undefeated, which has been maintained for two years, is it going to be broken by G2 today?!

You know, although IG lost FPX once in the regular season before, it was only the regular season!

In the competition, IG has still won the S7 World Championship so far!

If you lose, you can't imagine how big the impact will be!

At this time.

Backstage, IG Lounge.

is different from what the outside world thinks, the atmosphere on IG's side is not as heavy as imagined.

After all, after experiencing the baptism of so many competitions, there is still some psychological resistance to pressure.

Of course, being chased to 2:2 is hard, and the pressure on everyone is not small.

Soon, after Su Xiaoluo poured a wave of chicken soup, he tentatively turned his head and asked, "Lu Shen, will you be on the end?" ”

In his slightly surprised eyes, Lu Shen nodded very naturally: "Well, I'll go up, isn't it at this time that the substitute is on at this time." ”

"Eh" Su Xiaoluo was stunned for a moment, and then nodded violently: "That's okay!" ”

That's right.

Isn't that what the substitutes are on at this time?

What's wrong with the fact that when there is a problem with the form of the starting players, they come off the bench to save the game? There is no problem!

At most, it's their 'substitute', whose strength is a little different!

For a while, Su Xiaoluo and Mafa glanced at each other, and both of them saw the same emotion from each other's faces—the heart that was hanging was completely let go.

Thank you for the tips and tickets!
