The news of edg3-0's violent victory over g2 quickly became popular in major Chinese online communities as time went by.
Many viewers who could not afford to stay up late watched the video again.
[Mika’s six Dolans in the second game and her six Dolans in the third game, are they mocking the G2 mid laner and AD respectively? 】
[The worst thing about g2 is really the coach, right? The BP is simply terrible, so why ban the auxiliary first in every game? 】
[Shocked, Mika’s interview predicts that the game between SKT and FW will open at 64, and the big devil is likely to overturn! 】
…
There are endless discussion posts of all kinds, but the most popular ones are the discussion about EDG’s upcoming third consecutive series and Sakura Girl’s post-match interview.
【edg advances to the finals!】
[Edg is only one Bo5 away from winning three consecutive MSI titles!]
[Mika is confident that edg is unique in strength! 】
【mika reserves the championship in advance!】
For the first time in history, there are four related hot searches on Weibo at the same time!
Sakura-chan's no-nonsense remarks during the post-game interview might have been criticized as arrogant if applied to any other player, but except for a small number of mavericks, most of her didn't think so.
She opened the champagne in advance, but she felt that she was bringing glory to the LPL team.
Before the game, SKT players reported that monsters were walking around and commented harshly that Chinese players were not having fun. The incident has not passed yet.
Now Mika bluntly said that the SKT team is not qualified to compare with the LPL team EDG, which is undoubtedly very popular.
…
May 21st, the second match day of the semi-finals.
It's still afternoon local time in Brazil and three o'clock in the morning China time.
The game between skt and fw begins.
Although the Chinese audience, adhering to their support for their compatriots and expecting an upset, gave this poorly timed semi-final one-tenth of the live broadcast popularity of the edg game, with nearly a million people staying up until midnight to watch it
There's a competition!
But there is indeed a thick barrier between the strength of the two teams.
Don’t look at Meixia’s prediction of 3-0 against FW in the finals, and 3-1 against SKT. It seems that the two numbers are similar, and the actual gap between the two teams is not big. The Chinese forum said that she predicted FW against SKT with a score of 4-6.
Rumors are taken out of context from this aspect.
The prediction of edg3-0fw is that both sides may not win even one fw game after playing ten or even twenty fw games.
The prediction of edg3-1skt is that every four games, skt may steal a small victory...
Teams that have a chance to steal a game from Mixia are not on the same level as teams that have no chance!
The process of this semi-final is a vivid illustration.
In the first two games, Faker held Clockwork and Snake in his hands, all of which were heroes used in the group stage. He did not miss any extra tactical system.
Even so, fw didn't gain any advantage in the monster and fox they won respectively for mid laner maple.
Not only that, Karsa, the most powerful jungler in the FW group stage, was hindered in his rhythm after facing Peanut's aggressive attack. He couldn't drive the rhythm at all in the early stage, so the two lanes in the team that were lagging behind instantly became a stable breakthrough!
skt successfully used operational tactics to win in 27 and 29 minutes respectively.
Although the two games did not produce the terrifying effect of edg Linglong Tower, the kill numbers were 10-3 and 9-1 respectively, which was also full of suppression.
In the third game, fw finally couldn't bear it anymore and chose Lucian in the mid lane, grabbed Galio in the top lane, and then gave Karsa the jungler Cuishen.
This is a system that fw learned from edg in training games.
However, facing this EDG lineup, SKT is still hiding its tricks. Peanut uses the regular male gun, AD uses the regular mouse, and Faker even continues to use his Clockwork Demon. It seems that he is planning to keep playing as long as the opponent can't help him——
Just like Ryze in last year's World Championship.
It's just different from yesterday's script where edg suffered a setback at the beginning of the third game. SKT, which had no change in formation, played more and more smoothly in the third game. FW on the opposite side simply didn't have the optimism of G2 to give it a try, and they became more and more constrained in the life-and-death game.
Hesitation and even mistakes.
Not only faker Clockwork countered Lucian, but the other three lanes also blossomed!
In just 26 minutes, skt pushed away fw's main base crystal, making this game the fastest in the entire bo5.
It also kept the end time of the three games within 30 minutes, with the total time reaching 82 minutes!
So some lck fans who watched the game were outraged again.
[Who is not three to zero? It seems that it is easier for skt to win! 】
[EDG was almost eliminated from the group stage and G2 almost overturned and failed to score 3-0. What’s there to brag about? 】
[Is this the strength of the edg lineup copied by fw? 】
[Come on, it’s time to get back LCK’s first MSI trophy! 】
…
The entire edg team watched the live broadcast in the training room.
"Choose male spearmen for the jungle. Olaf, Blind Sin, and Faker gave all their resources to Peanut. It seems that SKT has adjusted the relationship between the middle and jungle in a short period of time. KKoma is aware of the problems in the group stage." The coach is a little confused.
Admired.
From the perspective of the audience, it seems that the fake selection of entries is a hidden strategy, but from the game, it is obvious that SKT performs better now that they have this system. Undoubtedly, they have practiced hard in the past few days with Clockwork and a carnivorous jungler.
However, it is not a random choice to confuse people!
"But no matter how good this system is, there is still no version that is most suitable for the current situation, right?" The factory director has experienced the version answer provided by Meixia and is not optimistic about SKT's old tricks. "The answer to the version is Cuishen!
"
"Don't look down on it. This system can be said to be seamlessly connected to the mid laner Galio, or the other two heroes that Mika is practicing! I'm afraid we used the first one in the finals, and skt will be able to copy it in the second game.
Go ahead." Abramovich still wants his teammates to be more prepared for rainy days. After all, it was really easy for SKT to beat FW.
"It's impossible." Mouse, who was sitting cross-legged, smiled and crossed his arms, "No one can practice heroes that fast except Mika!"
"Anyway, you brats, please take the finals seriously! Don't underestimate your opponents in tactics!" Abu was exposed one after another, and immediately said with a sullen face, "Look at Mika, why doesn't she talk as much as you do!"
"
Meixia didn't say anything because she was watching the interview with Faker on the court! Moreover, the atmosphere in the EDG team is already very lively now. The factory director Mouse is the one who makes daily remarks against coach Abu for worrying about things. She doesn't need to be like the one who first came to EDG.
It’s time to speak like that.
Today's live interview is with the female host sjokz. As a senior commentator, her questions are much more professional than the bearded one yesterday.
"What do you think, Faker, of yesterday's prediction that EDG mid laner Mika would beat SKT 3-1? Do you have your own score prediction for tomorrow's final?"
Well, the topicality of the questions is also very strong!
"Well, I don't know how Mika analyzed and concluded that we can beat us 3-1. In my opinion, e-sports competitions are the same as all sports. They are competitions that test performance on the spot, and it is important to make accurate predictions about the competition.
impossible."
Lee Sang Hyuk seriously refuted the behavior of making pre-match predictions, "So I will not make personal predictions for the finals. As for the opponent's score prediction, my answer is - we will find out in the finals! I will let mika see this."
In the past six months, I and our entire team have grown!”
In short, let’s see the real results in the finals!
Although the Big Devil refused to predict the finals, his answer was undoubtedly tense and extremely successful!
There was warm applause.
Tens of millions of viewers around the world are preparing to watch the next finals, wanting to see whether Sakura Girl's perfect prediction or SKT's escape from fate, even if the game is played in the Brazilian time zone, it is not friendly to China, Europe and South Korea!
Yesterday, the chapter was changed. The game between SKT and FW was one day apart...
