After the first battle of BO5, Ruler accepted an interview with the LPL official stream.
"How did you feel when you learned that your opponent was IG who had lost in the group stage?" the host Xiran asked.
"IG is a very strong team, so we were defeated in the group stage. After the game, we conducted a careful review and analysis, and also received assistance from other LCK teams, so we are confidently prepared to deal with any team
The preparation of the LPL team, so now I am standing here." Ruler replied.
It sounds quite humble, but if you taste it carefully, you will feel that it is not the taste.
The reason we lost to IG before was because we were not prepared. Now that we are fully prepared, IG is nothing to worry about.
The words are harsh, but it is difficult to refute.
No matter how difficult it is for GenG to win, they are still the victors. King Chi is qualified to say this!
"Do you have any predictions for the next game?" Xiran tried to talk.
"In the face of absolute strength, any tricks are meaningless. I believe that LCK will eventually regain the championship it lost last year!" Chi Di said in a tight tone and did not reveal any information. At the same time, he took the opportunity to pretend. After watching the post-game interview, LPL viewers were all aggrieved.
LCK is so aggressive in dealing damage, are there no warriors who can stand up and slap the opponent wildly?
……
LPL Lounge.
"Since everyone has a dispute about the arrangements for the next game and no one is willing to compromise, then let the minority obey the majority and decide by secret ballot!" Abu, the most senior person, said the final decision.
The next game has a lot to do with it, so there is no reason why the LPL doesn’t pay attention to it.
Some people ask for a fight, some politely refuse to fight, and some just sit back and watch.
There is no distinction between the four teams representing the participating teams, nor is it anyone's opinion. Since it is difficult to reach a consensus, voting is one way to do it.
Not long after, the representatives of the four teams finished voting respectively, and the votes were counted by LPL staff.
One vote for EDG, two votes for V5, and one vote for RNG.
As agreed in advance, V5 with the most votes will represent the LPL in the second game.
The audience is eagerly awaiting the announcement of the participating teams in the second round of BO5.
"The second team sent by the LPL is V5, and they will face SKT from the LCK!" Ren Dong raised the two cards in his hand, unable to conceal his excitement as he spoke.
I originally thought that these two teams would contribute a wonderful vanguard battle, but unexpectedly, both sides played tricks on each other, which disappointed many viewers.
The result was not good, the two teams still bumped into each other by mistake!
Wawa: "Everyone, welcome back. Now in the first game of BO5, LCK wins first, and then the second game will begin immediately, with V5 facing off against SKT!"
Miller: "SKT is currently in a very hot state. I think the audience will have a certain impression after watching the games in the past few days. It is not easy for V5 to win back this victory for the LPL, but V5 is a team full of talents.
Possibility, I look forward to V5’s extraordinary performance today.”
Changmao: "So far, Wolong has never lost to SKT or even the LCK team in the World Championship. I wonder if I can continue this record after debuting as a player today?"
After the audience in the live broadcast room learned that the two sides would be SKT and V5, they were a little nervous and a little expectant, and their mood was quite complicated.
"It's good. Compared to RNG or EDG, I am more willing to believe in V5, or Wolong's foreign war buff."
"Why are you so stubborn? Once V5 loses the second game, there will be no way out for LPL."
"V5, please do something. If you defeat SKT, I will beat you for a whole year!"
"It's a pity that WE fell apart, otherwise the LCK would be so arrogant in any round, and their brains would be hammered to pieces!"
"What if, I mean what if, if V5 beats SKT, and then RNG and EDG lose their backhand, what should we do?"
"Gan, I have never been so nervous about the college entrance examination that year, V5, come on!"
……
Both teams are ready, SKT blue side, V5 red side.
Entering the BP stage, Zhuge Liang and kkoma worked very tacitly to ban in the first round.
SKT banned Qinggangying, Zhumei and Pike, while V5 banned Galio, Ryze and Zoe.
On the first floor, SKT won Kai'Sa with a grab and a ban.
V5 quickly locks Olaf and Kennen on the first and second floors.
Doll: "Olav? The priority of the current version of Olaf is not that high, right?"
Miller: "Scorpions, barrels, and trolls are all still outside, but V5 chose Olaf, maybe to speed up the early tempo?"
Changmao: "Little Peanut's style has changed a lot this season. He seems to have regained his original aggressiveness and offensiveness. I want to withstand the pressure of Little Peanut in the jungle and pick a hero in the jungle who is not too weak in the early stage. I
I think it’s a good choice.”
kkoma hesitated for a moment. He was not only concerned about Olaf, but also about Kennen behind him.
Kennen seems to be a panacea and is not difficult to beat anyone in the lane, but is it really necessary to show off first?
If I have to say it, Jace and Lucian are not inferior to Kennen in the line-up. Kennen is not as good as Sword Girl in single-line development. In terms of weapons, in terms of team fights, there are Ornn, Vampire, the strong version of Sword Girl, and Sword Demon are also outside. p>
Could it be that there is some fraud?
kkoma thought for a while, and the sword girl and wine barrel appeared one after another on the second and third floors.
The sword girl can be in the middle or up, so it is convenient to wait and see the situation of Kenan's line split, and then swing.
As for the wine barrel, it is to increase initiative and not be too passive.
On the third floor, V5 has added a slightly less popular Lissandra.
Wawa: "Ice Girl? It feels like the lineup V5 got is a bit different from the version?"
Miller: "It is true that V5's first three players are not popular in the version, but Wolong has always been famous for its version research and tactical development capabilities. Could it be that he has developed a new system?"
Changmao: "Facing a strong enemy like SKT, maybe we can only defeat the enemy with clever tricks!"
Entering the second round.
SKT bans Xia and Jhin to block the old thieves' hero selection.
V5 banned Braum and Tahm, two-handed protective auxiliary heroes.
On the fourth floor, V5 goes out to support first, and has a gem with a low appearance rate in the current version.
In the second round, V5 banned two protective supports and chose the next gem, which made kkoma smell a hint of murderous intent.
Judging from the first four moves, V5’s lineup is a big recruit, and its mid-term teamfighting ability is extremely terrifying.
Moreover, with this lineup, overcoming towers is as easy as drinking water, and it is difficult for defensive towers to get the respect they deserve.
After pondering for a few seconds, KKoma settled on Niutou and Jace on the fourth and fifth floors respectively.
Niutou can protect Kai'Sa during the laning phase, and can provide control during team battles, acting as the front row, creating conditions for Kai'Sa to harvest.
As for Jace, it was naturally to target Kenan.
V5 picked Lissandra, so Kennen will most likely go the top route. If military training can be carried out in the early stage to destroy Kennen, unless V5 adds a big AD core to the lineup, it will easily face damage.
The dilemma of inadequacy.
When Sword Girl moves to the middle lane to fight against Lissandra, she will be pushed out of the lane in the early stage, but once she levels up and is equipped, the situation will improve.
In the final counter position on the fifth floor, V5 has yet to reveal its hero.
It wasn't until time was almost running out that a surprising hero was locked in seconds.
