On November 3rd, the game between ig and grf was held as scheduled. After fpx failed to reach the finals, ig became the last hope for all viewers. Even if they could not see the finals, they did not want to see the civil war between lck.
Therefore, IG's game has already received a lot of attention before it even started. The commentary lineup is also the ace combination of LPL's Doll and Miller.
"Hello everyone, I am the commentary doll."
"I'm Miller."
"Hey, Miller, what do you think of today's game?"
"Of course ig will win. How else can we look at it? They are in such good shape and have a high chance of advancing to the finals."
When lpl only had one seedling left, Miller of course chose to stand up to IG. Of course, Wawa knew what to say was the most correct thing to say, but his face was still full of regret.
"Sigh, it's a pity that fpx's game was not close, otherwise we would have really seen the lpl finals this year."
Miller's eyes changed slightly when he heard the old story brought up by Wawa, and he immediately changed the topic. fpx was eliminated yesterday, which was when public opinion exploded. Bringing up the old story at this time is just setting the pace.
"There is no way, the weather is unpredictable, as long as we can advance to one team, we still have hope. I believe that ig can win today's game. The players watching ig have already come out of the player channel."
"Judging from their chatting and laughing expressions, there should be no big problem. They are very confident and energetic. There should be no big problem in today's game."
"Good guy, Miller, can you now judge the winner or loser of a game by looking at your face?" The doll turned around and teased Miller.
"I understand a little bit, I understand a little bit," Miller smiled modestly upon hearing this.
Yunge stood behind the ig players. After seeing the lessons of yesterday's fpx defeat, the ig players were much more cautious today. Even King Ning, who was usually very arrogant, did not make any big statements before the game.
The players of ig know very well that after fpx was eliminated, the pressure came on them. This game may be more important than the finals.
If they lose in the finals, some people may still feel sorry for them, but if ig dares to send grf to win in this semi-final and let lck join the finals, then the trolls will never let ig go.
IG's failure to win the championship is a loss for the club and players, but allowing LCK to join forces in the finals is a shame for the entire division. After IG won the world championship, LPL seemed to consider itself the No. 1 division in the world. If IG loses this game, the consequences will be
It's simply unimaginable.
But compared to the cautious expressions of the ig players, Yun Ge's mood was more relaxed. He knew the current strength and status of ig. Although what Ning Wang said before sounded arrogant, there was no big problem.
ig is invincible.
They have the three most luxurious lines in the world championship. The strength of the ig trident is definitely the best in the world. If they are in excellent condition and have the blessing of the hero bond, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that they are the best in the world among the three.
ig's shortcoming is Nosuke, but now King Ning is in very good condition. He has regained the feeling of S8 by playing around the top lane. Baolan has not made too many mistakes recently. Without the shortcomings being exposed, it is said that ig
It's invincible, no exaggeration at all.
In the first game, ig had better luck. By guessing coins, ig got the right to grab the lead from the blue side. Yunge directly put Olaf on the ban position without hesitation.
"Hehehehe, Coach Yunge's BP is still the same as before. No matter what team he faces, his first ban will be Olaf," Watanabe chuckled when he saw Coach Yunge's ban position.
Miller on the side also smiled and explained to coach Yunge, "I saw a statement on the Internet before. The reason why coach Yunge keeps banning Olaf is very simple."
"Because Coach Yunge has a lot of tactics, and sometimes he will come up with some unique routines, and the hero Olaf is known as the nemesis of all routines. Once Ragnarok starts, any routine will be useless.
Therefore, coach Yun Ge must target Olaf."
"Indeed, the analysis is flawless, and the conclusion is that Olaf is the hero coach Tianke Yunge, right?"
Hearing Wawa's summary, Miller laughed out loud, "It's okay for you to say that. Olaf is indeed a great coach."
While Wawa and Miller were chatting and joking, grf's coaching staff banned theshy's Sword Demon and Angel. There was nothing wrong with these two bans, but the problem was with the coach who came to BP.
Before the start of the World Championship, grf fired their meritorious coach Mai Ge. The coach who led grf to show off as a dark horse is now at odds with his players.
It is this operation that makes everyone not optimistic about grf's results in this World Championship. It is a taboo for military strategists to change generals on the spot. grf's ability to reach the semi-finals really depends on the individual strength of the players.
This is also the reason why Coach Yunge is so confident. GRF’s players are indeed not weak. There are three top players in midfield and AD, and their paper strength is no worse than that of iG.
But grf is now in turmoil. Under such circumstances, no team can achieve good results. Sometimes, mentality is more important than strength.
What's more, ig's strength is not bad at all. In a strong showdown, any weakness will be caught and beaten up by the opponent, not to mention that grf as a whole has exposed such a big contradiction.
grf's top laner in this game is still the King of Swordsmen. As the protagonist who turned against the coach, his personal strength is not as strong as he claims. I don't know where he has the confidence to fight with the coach. Could it be that he thinks grf is all the same?
Is he in c?
Yun Ge didn't understand, but after seeing grf banning both Sword Demon and Angel, Yun Ge had already determined the strategy for this game, which was to focus on the top lane and directly penetrate the Sword King.
So in the next two ban positions, Yunge sent both Qiyana and Spider, two junglers that Tarzan is good at, to the ban position. In the last move, grf hesitated a little, and finally gave Rookie's Syndra.
"Okay, ig grabs the blind monk for the first time. There is no problem with this move. Ning Wang blind monk's touch has been very hot recently. I hope this game can continue."
"In fact, facing Tarzan, it is a good choice to help King Ning choose a blind monk jungler. If grf gets a blind monk who is easy to control the rhythm in the early stage, ig will be uncomfortable playing."
Wawa and Miller were very satisfied with Coach Yunge's first-hand choice, but after seeing grf's choice, they couldn't help but frown.
grf directly locked the Xialuo combination in the backhand. They chose a strong combination in the bottom lane, which was not good news for ig.
But Yunge's expression didn't fluctuate much, and it was okay if grf took him to the Xialuo combination. After all, ig's strategy in this round was to focus on the top lane.
Yun Ge walked up behind Rookie and Ning Wang and asked them to lock their skateboard shoes and czar. Seeing Yun Ge's move, grf's acting coach was stunned.
He had no idea where ig's skateboard shoes went. Anyway, the lower surface of the skateboard shoes was not very good against the Xialuo combination, so grf's coach walked over to Jianhuang and had a brief discussion with him.
Finally, grf decided to wait and see again.
So grf helped tarzan choose the prince's jungler as the third hand, and then directly sent Ah Shui's Draven and Kai'Sa to the ban position. The meaning was very obvious, which was to force Kalista to return to the bottom lane to face the lane. grf
I don’t want theshy to get the skateboard shoes.
Yunge smiled upon seeing this, and then sent the Sword Emperor's anti-pressure heroes Ornn and Crocodile to the ban position. After seeing ig's ban person, grf's coach immediately determined that these skateboard shoes must be played by theshy
Yes, otherwise ig will not conduct bp for the top order.
So in the fourth move, grf decisively took down Gnar. Facing the pressure of skateboard shoes, gfr had to come up with a hero with long hands, and his body must be strong enough, otherwise he would not be able to withstand the damage of skateboard shoes.
"Can you use Gnar to hit skateboard shoes? There seems to be no problem. Even if you can't beat it, you can still develop it by throwing boomerangs behind it. This seems to be a good choice."
Wawa also thought that ig's skateboard shoes were chosen for theshy, but after seeing ig's last two hero choices, he fainted.
Yunge stood behind Ah Shui and asked him to choose a happy man, and then asked Baolan to choose a monkey assistant. Seeing coach Yun Ge's choice, Ah Shui's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Yun Ge with expectation.
coach.
"Coach Yunge, Yasuo chose this for me, right? Yasuo and Monkey in the bottom lane are quite strong in combat."
As Shui said, his eyes were full of anticipation. He had already thought about the scene when Yasuo would receive the monkey's ultimate move after level 6. This would be so happy.
"No, Yasuo was chosen by theshy to fight Gnar. In this game, we focus on the top lane. The top laner is the shortcoming of the opponent grf."
Hearing Coach Yun Ge's words, Ah Shui's eyes instantly lost light. He stared blankly at Coach Yun Ge, and did not regain his consciousness for a long time.
Happy, snap! Gone.
Ah Shui: So, love really disappears, right?
But the outside world is still confused about ig's choice. ig's skateboard shoes can swing in two directions, and Yasuo can swing on the road. When ig uses Yasuo in the jungle, the audience is not surprised at all. In ig,
If I don’t know how to play Yasuo, I would be too embarrassed to play with other people.
"What is the distribution of Yasuo and skateboard shoes like this? Coach Yunge has already shaken me unconscious," Baby touched his head. The current situation was beyond his ability to understand.
"First of all, the positions of the blind monk and the tsar in the midfield have been determined. There is no problem. The monkey should also be a support, just the skateboard shoes and Yasuo swinging up and down."
"Actually, whether it's skateboard shoes plus monkey, or Yasuo plus monkey, they seem to be very strong. I think coach Yunge most likely wants Yasuo to go on the road. Yasuo is the hero who can restrain Gnar."
Miller analyzed it carefully and quickly guessed what coach Yunge was thinking. However, grf's coach was still a little confused. IG's swing of Yasuo made him very uncomfortable.
grf really wanted Skateboard Shoes to go down the road, but suddenly they had Yasuo who could restrain Gnar, which gave them a huge headache, because no matter who went down the road, Skate Shoes or Yasuo, it felt like Sword King couldn't beat him.
There is no way, in the last counter position, grf decisively chose Panson, the most powerful hero in this version, which ig and grf didn't grab before, which is quite outrageous.
"Pan Sen! Why did ig forget about Pan Sen in this hand? Can grf still choose Pan Sen in the fifth hand?" The doll's face became a little ugly when he saw grf's choice.
Pan Sen is a non-ban hero in the version, and ig was able to let grf get it in the last hand. This is definitely a huge BP mistake.
"If grf didn't choose, I almost forgot about this hero. IG didn't seem to have banned Panson at all before. Other teams also used Panson to beat IG before, but it didn't seem to have much effect. IG didn't seem to be afraid of Panson.
"
Miller had a wry smile on his face. It didn't seem like a good thing that grf got the strongest hero in the version in the last hand, but when he thought that ig had not beaten Panson before, Miller's mood was a little better.
But Wawa is still very angry, "I think strong heroes in the version should be respected. It's not difficult to get banned. LPL will confidently release strong heroes in the version every year, and then they are defeated by the opponent. I have a psychological shadow."
Hearing what the baby said, Miller's face showed a wry smile again. The LPL team had such a history. The most famous tragedy was LGD in S5. They refused to ban Tetsuo and insisted on using fire to make steel, and then they were killed.
A violent beating.
Is Tetsuo from S5 tough? Very tough, even tougher than Pantheon in this version, but even though Tetsuo is so tough, LGD still didn't ban Mammoth back then.
After Yunge saw grf get Pan Sen with his last hand, his eyes were full of surprise. In fact, Yunge didn't forget Pan Sen, but that this hero could use Pan Sen's tactics outside of ig's tactical system.
Not much really.
And as Miller said, IG is really not afraid of Pantheon. Pantheon's strongest skill is actually the tower jumping effect of the e skill. In fact, the hero's own strength is not that powerful.
Moreover, once the opponent chooses Pan Sen, he will have to fight ig. This is not bad news for ig. If there is a fight, it is not necessarily who will win.
The only thing you need to worry about is the support ability of Panson's ultimate move. Panson is like a card, able to radiate advantages to both the upper and lower lanes.
But with Rookie in the middle of ig, it's unclear whether Pan Sen can get the advantage. Therefore, in Yun Ge's eyes, Pan Sen's priority is really not that high. Yun Ge is really not bloated, his mind is very clear.
