？？？

Are you a propagandist?

Xi Ran's eyes widened next to him, and the audience and the barrage in the live broadcast room were a little nervous after hearing this.

They thought about a lot of Chen Yiqiu's answers, but they didn't think that this guy was so direct, simple and rude, interviewing after the semi-finals of MSI, advertising his champion skin.

Whether it is the contrast between the characters or the effect of the program, it is all full.

And when Chen Yiqiu mentioned this, everyone also remembered it-

Oh, yes, around May, the first version of SKT's champion skin has been finalized, and it won't be long before Chen Yiqiu's S6 Global Championship champion skin will be freshly released.

At that time, as the first "former LPL player" in history to win the S championship and have a champion skin, will Chen Yiqiu's skin sell well?

"Uh... It's really... Let's look forward to it, I will buy five or six sets of collections at my own expense anyway. ”

Xiran, the young lady, is also very powerful, and when she heard Chen Yiqiu say this, she helped to publicize it.

provoked a burst of laughter from the audience.

"That last question."

Xi Ran also adjusted his state and asked the last question: "You have now advanced to the final of the MSI finals, but your opponent in the final has not yet been determined..."

"What are your predictions for your finals opponents?"

"Also, is the next goal to win the championship?"

As soon as these words came out, the LPL crowd immediately cheered up, and several people in WE also stared at Chen Yiqiu one by one.

Although they don't want to admit it, they have always wanted to be "recognized" by Reaper.

When did it start...

Maybe it was when Chen Yiqiu won the World Finals last year.

From that time on, no matter how well Chen Yiqiu performed in the outside division, everyone in the LPL division who could maintain their reserve and attitude couldn't sit still at all.

Up to now, more than half of S7, they actually care about Chen Yiqiu's opinion, and they really want to get his personal affirmation and recognition.

Pity.

The biggest characteristic of Chen Yiqiu is that to be honest, he actually wants to support WE very much.

But according to the history he knows, WE should fall in the semifinals this year.

Unable to meet them at the Grand Final.

“…… Personally, I'm inclined to WE, but from the specific state and strength, it depends on the performance of the two teams on the day, and the strength of the two teams is very close, well, that's probably it. ”

Chen Yiqiu expressed his opinion euphemistically, and then was very confident in the last question: "As for the goal, we have all advanced to the finals, and our template is to defend the title." ”

Defending the title is not to win the championship, but to defend the title.

Because for other teams, MSI reigns supreme, but SKT won the championship last year.

So all they have to do is defend their title and defeat opponents who want to win the World Championship a million times in order to maintain their undefeated status.

Bang la blah.

There was warm applause from the field, Chen Yiqiu said hello to Xiran, and the interview ended after the game.

And in the audience, the LPL people who haven't heard Chen Yiqiu's words are also smiling.

"I didn't expect Reaper to support us too."

"That's for sure, he used to be an LPL person, and he is Chinese."

"WE is definitely stronger than G2, what kind of fun is G2, Europe and the United States are just pressing."

The spicy fragrant pot was disdainful: "Even Europe and the United States are forced to lose, so isn't WE the same as EDG?" What's the matter, I don't want to be a father, I want to be brothers together? ”

Abu next to him raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and his mind was full of black question marks.

If you can talk, you can talk more.

"Europe and the United States... Hehe, we can win. ”

Xiye agrees with this, he thinks that G2, TSM and these teams are pure weak chickens.

In the whole world, only the LCK region is currently worth catching up with the LPL.

In fact, it is indeed a fact that Europe and the United States have been forced in previous years, but in recent years, the European and American divisions led by G2 have already improved their personal strength.

The right and the wrong will be revealed shortly.

"Okay, go back and rest today, it's time for us to play tomorrow!"

The LPL crowd is in high spirits, and a group of coaches have begun to study SKT in the finals, ready to prove themselves in the finals.

- And then the egg.

The next day, the semifinals of the 2017 MSI Mid-Season Invitational Tournament, WEvsG2.

On the same day, the LPL division attached great importance to and paid attention to the game.

But in fact, since the first game, everyone's mood has become less beautiful and gradually delicate.

Because today's WE state is obviously wrong, or in other words, the strength of G2 is too strong, everyone underestimates the combat effectiveness of "European and American fishing".

In the whole BO5, LPL everyone seemed to reproduce the tragic psychological journey of S6 last year, from the initial momentum to the frowning later.

In the end, it was already silent and all self-contained.

That night, G2 carried the glory of Europe, defeated WE with a score of 3:1, eliminated the LPL team, and successfully advanced to the final of the MSI Finals, where it met with SKT at the Rio Olympic Stadium.

The result was settled, and the scene went crazy, because G2 is also one of their representative teams in the West, how can the audience not be crazy?

The WE crowd looked dazed, and they didn't give up until the last second before the end of the game, because they didn't react at all.

Just lost?

Lost to G2 so easily?

said that they wanted to take revenge on SKT, and they said that they wanted to make Chen Yiqiu look up to them...

Finished.

In the end, there were only these two words left in my heart.

Although he lost to Europe and the United States in the semifinals, he did not lose to Europe and the United States in the previous LPL.

But this time it's different.

This time, on the high position not far away, there was a team that kept staring at them - SKT.

And in SKT, the ID of Reaper is always like a nightmare, the better he is, the more LPL is restless, and the more hot the pain on his face.

The LPL official attaches so much importance to this MSI, and almost half of the reason why the LPL-style training model was brought out in advance was because of Chen Yiqiu's existence.

They want to beat SKT, they want to beat SKT.

They missed their chance in the group stage and thought that this time it would be the same as last year, even if they would lose to SKT in the end, they would meet SKT at the top.

Who knows, this time they didn't even qualify for the finals, and they fell on the stage of the semifinals.

“…… I'm a little dizzy. ”

Standing up so strongly, his brain was suddenly dizzy when he shook hands, and he hurriedly held on to the table next to him, his face turned pale.

"Are you alright?"

Several teammates next to him were terrified.

"No, no, no, there will be an S match after that, and we will definitely beat SKT."

Condi was afraid of being excited in the night, so he pulled over directly and hurriedly used the S race to comfort the other party.

"Alas... I didn't expect to see SKT in the end. ”

957 also sighed, he was also a little confused at the moment.

Now this result, it can be said that they did not think about it before the game.

1:3 was eliminated by G2, not a 2:3 battle, what is the difference between 1:3 and 0:3?

"Forget it, go back and have a good review, this is not the end of this year, everyone relax."

Someone persuaded that everyone in WE walked to the backstage with their heads down.

Night.

WE was unsurprisingly sprayed on the hot search.

is still the same sentence, if there is no Chen Yiqiu, maybe WE will suffer less public opinion, but because of Chen Yiqiu, all LPL audiences, whether they admit it or not, hold their breath and want to "prove themselves".

As a result, at such a critical time, WE suddenly pulled his crotch.

Xila shocked me to swipe the screen this night to score the tiger pounce, which really filled the effect of the show.

On the other hand, G2 is in high spirits.

WE is confused to lose, and G2 is confused to win.

In the post-match interview of the semi-final BO5 on the same day, Ah P was even more blunt: "I didn't expect to win so easily, WE doesn't look as strong as I imagined, and the same is true for the LPL division." ”

"And we will crush SKT's head in the next finals, this is not against SKT, because SKT also has LPL players."

As soon as this connotative and highly personal trash talk came out, it quickly became popular in all major regions around the world.

Even SKT himself knew about it.

"Ah P has started again, a classic link that is indispensable in every World Championship."

Lee Jaewan commented with a smile: "So next, will it be the classic mask of pain, hugging your head and crying?" ”

"I think so."

Bae Jun-sik nodded.

"I didn't expect it, I always thought that our opponent in the finals this year would be WE."

Li Zaiwan turned his head to look at Chen Yiqiu: "Yiqiu, what do you think?" ”

"What do I think?"

Chen Yiqiu said speechlessly: "Sit and watch, otherwise how else can you look at it." ”

"WE's overall strength is indeed not at its peak, and it is not surprising to lose to G2."

He straightened his tone: "But then we can't be careless, after all, it's the World Finals, and winning one more world championship for your career will also be good for everyone's future development." ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded, but obviously not as motivated as the other teams.

Chen Yiqiu didn't say much when he saw this scene.

In fact, he was just a shallow temptation, because he was talking about future development.

So where will these SKT people go in the future?

No one corrected his words, obviously everyone has a tacit understanding at the moment, this year plus the previous years, it is indeed too tiring.

Will the S7 be the end of SKT? Same as another world?

Chen Yiqiu looked up at Lee Sang-hyuk not far away.

"What do you see me doing?"

Lee Sang-hyuk noticed his gaze and turned his head to ask.

"It's okay, the opponent is now decided, tonight..."

"Let's practice!"

……

MSI's schedule has always been notoriously tight, with only one off-season after the group stage.

After the off-season, the knockout rounds (semi-finals) and finals are seamless.

So after the match between WE and G2 today, tomorrow will be the last day of this MSI, which is the match day of the Grand Finals.

There is not enough time left for SKT, although they have studied G2 before, but because of the overall performance of G2 today, it is still the schedule, SKT wants to win the Cup Rio tomorrow, and they must work overtime to train.

At this stage of the game, it would be to say that he didn't want to win, tired like Bae Jun-sik, and he was also tense with the last nerve.

And so, the next day.

Early in the morning, SKT people stepped on the bus to the venue.

All the way to the venue, enter from the backstage VIP entrance in a low-key manner, check in and enter the backstage lounge, and start the most reserve battle within the day.

Soon after, there was a commotion outside the lounge.

When they looked up, they saw that the G2 people were passing by the door of their break room.

Originally, as an opponent, G2 would not come over today, but since he saw that both sides were "old friends", Ah P led the others to stop and waved his hand with a smile: "Hello, my beloved brothers." ”

"Come on for today's game."

Chen Yiqiu waved his hand generously in response.

"You too."

Ah P seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still added weakly: "Oh yes... Don't mind the previous interviews, you know, Riot has always been like this, inducing us to say things we don't want to say. ”

Everyone: "......"

Fist himself was probably speechless when he heard this.

Obviously, you want to say, it's okay if your mouth is cool, why are you still cowardly when it comes to the end now?

"It's okay, we'll be very gentle with you."

Lee Jae-wan is also a bad species, in SKT, in fact, the most arrogant to the outside world is Wolf.

In some documentaries, promotional videos, and interviews, he always looks down on everyone with a lofty attitude, so at this moment, he is not polite at all, and he has a sentence of Ah P.

“…… Wolf, we're good friends, aren't we? ”

Ah P panicked.

They are actually not afraid of what SKT is doing now, as the opponent of the finals, they were originally going to step on the opponent's corpse to win the cup to the top.

But as the saying goes, for the sake of long-term consideration, especially in front of the mountain of SKT, the probability of them losing the finals today is not low.

Once it happens, how you lose the game is crucial.

Just like yesterday in the semi-finals, they played WE, if WE and G2 fought five games and lost in the end, then public opinion may spit on them, but it will definitely not be so exaggerated.

Some games are regrettable to lose, and some games are ruined.

What's the difference?

Isn't that how you lose the game?

Ah P is afraid that SKT will be excited now, and they will be ruined today, which will not be fun.

"My favorite team and player of all time, is SKT, you are our idol, we'll see you later, friendship first today, competition second!"

Ah P is actually a very sleek person in private, and after saying good things, he was afraid that SKT would release something that would make him "frightened", so he ran back to the lounge with G2 and the others.

"Perkz is really... Interesting. ”

Lee Sang-hyuk was amused by this scene and couldn't help but shake his head.

Among the players around the world, they actually have a good sense of G2, because this team is always full of joy and show effects.

"It's not a good sign to be cowardly before you fight."

Bae Jun-sik pouted disdainfully: "Today's championship is stable, let's think about how to celebrate after winning the championship." ”

"My suggestion is to have a big multi-person party!"
