"ym got the match point with a hearty victory. Now they lead 2-1 and are only one step away from advancing to the finals."
"For ig, the situation is a bit dangerous now. We have to think of a way to cheer up quickly, otherwise their world championship this year may end here!"
On the stage, the ym players who had won another round were standing next to them as soon as they took off their headphones.
"Seventh brother, are you on drugs? This one is so powerful!"
"There's not a drop of urine in the stimulant!" Lefty also laughed.
Although ym has practiced this set of combos between Mercy and Kai'Sa in the past few days of training matches.
His performance went far beyond that. His script moves during the laning phase defused ig's attacks three times in a row, and he also counter-killed Ah Shui's Draven. He even maximized the damage in team battles. He was impeccable in all aspects.
.
For comparison, Kai'Sa's data is 6-0-4, with nearly 30,000 output in the whole game.
On the other side, Ah Shui's Draven has a record of 3-6-2, and his output damage is only over 10,000, so the gap is quite big.
After this game, the various "ad gap" debates before the semifinals can be stopped here.
"What's going on with Viagra? Is it really open?" Zhang Xiaowen said excitedly.
"I don't know either," he shyly touched the back of his head, "I just feel like this handle feels good and I feel more confident when playing."
After saying that, he raised his face and looked at Su Chen, showing a simple and honest smile.
What he was most happy about after winning this crucial match point game was not that he had performed well, but that he had lived up to Su Chen's trust in him.
Su Chen nodded, then looked to the other side of the stage.
The five ig players who lost the match point game had already stood up.
Being pushed to the edge of elimination, their faces were filled with solemnity.
the shy was obviously in a bad mood. When the red failure sign popped up on the screen, he stood up and left the seat as soon as possible.
Followed by Rookie, King Ning, and Baolan.
Ah Shui, who did not perform well in this game, stared at the settlement page on the screen for a moment before standing up as the last one.
Before leaving, he looked sideways. After realizing that Su Chen was also looking here, he showed a confident smile, and then left with firm eyes.
"How could you give up so easily..." Su Chen sighed in his heart.
Before the semi-finals started, Ah Shui suddenly found him on WeChat after not contacting him for a long time, and the two chatted for a long time.
Su Chen still remembered the last message Ah Shui sent him.
"Lao Su, no matter which one of us goes to Incheon in the end, I must not leave any regrets on the field tomorrow. I will definitely go all out, and I hope you will too."
Going all out is the promise between him and Ah Shui.
Having made up his mind, Su Chen also put on his team uniform again and walked into the tunnel.
…
A heavy atmosphere surrounds ig's lounge.
Even Coach Jin, who is always good at encouraging players, didn't know what to say after watching the third game.
The crushing economy of 10,000, the match-up MVP, and ym's suffocating operating rhythm.
It’s not that ig didn’t make efforts, Rookie’s Enchantress captured the dragon in the last wave, and it was Shengtian Banzi.
But Kai'Sa, who had the moment of Holy Judgment, still shattered ig's last hope.
Slipping to the edge of elimination in this way puts tremendous pressure on people.
The first one to break the silence was captain Rookie.
After looking around, his eyes fell on the shy who lowered his head and said nothing.
"The shy, in fact, you performed well in the previous few games. In the last game, the opponent was trying to catch you, but you were still able to maintain your development and not collapse. This is something only you can do. You don't have to blame yourself so much."
Hearing Rookie's words, the shy couldn't help but feel a little moved, and couldn't help but say in Korean: "Brother Yijin, I'm really sorry..."
Duke, the big brother of the team, patted the shy on the shoulder and told him not to worry too much.
Ning Wang followed up and said: "In fact, our idea was okay in the last wave. It was just that we failed to catch Kai'Sa in several consecutive waves in the bottom lane. The most explosive one was the wave when Angel T came over. If we had communicated in time, we would have
Well, it’s harmful..."
"The AD on the other side feels that his hands suddenly feel hot. I think we should either choose Kai'Sa in the next game, or ban him directly." Baolan interjected.
Seeing that the players finally started chatting, Coach Jin's expression softened a little and he looked at Ah Shui.
The selection of Draven in the last game was made at Ah Shui's own request, but it turned out to be a slightly arrogant choice.
The original intention made Ah Shui suffer the bitter consequences.
Seeing everyone in the room looking at him, Ah Shui was not too nervous and said directly:
"The top position is my problem. Choosing Draven is really too pretentious. I apologize to my brothers."
The rookie was about to say that it was okay, but Ah Shui continued: "But I still want to win the fourth game with everyone. We have played many key games together this year. It is not easy for everyone. I really hope that we can win the game together."
I’m going to Incheon with everyone, so as long as I can win tonight, I can do anything.”
Seeing Ah Shui's firm and sincere eyes, everyone at IG looked at each other, and their confidence was rekindled in each other.
"Just treat it as the last one," King Ning also felt relieved. "Anyway, playing from the qualifying round to the semi-finals has already made a lot of money. It's useless to think about it so much. Just do it and be done!"
Rookie also nodded and said warmly: "I know what Jack means. This year is not easy for everyone. No matter what the final result is, we are worthy of our efforts throughout the year. Just try your best."
"Then charge!" Ah Shui suddenly stood up, "We are reckless and will not kill the unknown people!"
Seeing the players' renewed enthusiasm, Coach Jin couldn't help but applaud. This is what he wanted to see.
Losing is not scary, but the fear of losing is the scariest thing.
"The last game is left to everyone, let's go and have a big scene!"
…
In the LPL event live broadcast room, after the short commercial break, the three Deyunse brothers appeared in front of the camera again.
Sun Yalong and Kid no longer had the confident demeanor before the game. At this moment, they already wanted to get off work. However, in line with the quality of commentary, he still had to make up some words to comfort the ig fans.
"Brothers, don't be too discouraged. In the fourth game, IG has the right to choose sides. I don't think we should take Draven. Let's play Rookie or King Ning with someone who can C. I believe in IG's ability to adjust!
"Sun Yalong clenched his fists and encouraged.
But kid still looked listless. He looked at the data of the previous player and said helplessly: "The main reason is that I don't know how to play now. If my condition is up, IG really doesn't know what breakthrough to find."
Not only the kids think so, but the viewers watching the game online also have the same impression.
In the first game, Coach Jin made a risky move, betting that the shy's long hand would have the same effect as Su Chen, but the result failed.
In the second game, ig changed their thinking and asked Rookie and King Ning to step forward. Ah Shui also made a sound in the bottom lane, but if it weren't for the overwhelming luck, the crystal was also removed by the weapon.
Although it was a victory, it also proved that ig still couldn't handle ym's 41-point push.
In the third game, ig changed their formation again, giving the bottom lane a hero like Draven Bullhead who can explode the lane, and released the shy. King Ning basically lived in the bottom lane.
But what ushered in was a disastrous financial defeat of 10,000 yuan.
All the available tricks have been used, and ig is at his wits end.
"Don't be so discouraged, brothers. After all, you have the right to choose sides. Coach Jin may be holding back his big move," Sika said with a smile, "As I said before, believe first, then question!"
"Yes, I believe there is a fifth one, ig, come on!" Sun Yalong followed.
With the encouragement of several people, the contestants also returned to the stage, and the director immediately switched the camera to the scene.
On the stage where light and shadow intersect, the players from the black and white teams returned to the stage.
On the three screens hanging in the dome, Ah Shui's face appeared.
After he sat back in his seat, he took a deep breath. After realizing that the camera was pointed at him, he smiled slightly and gave a thumbs up, telling fans not to worry.
Rookie, Ning Wang and others are also smiling, and their mentality has obviously been adjusted well.
Seeing the five people on the field in such a state, the fans in the audience gained more confidence and supported the home team hard.
"Come on, little ig! I want to see you go to Incheon!!"
"You don't need to run the business, just do it and you're done!!"
"Rookie, please, take the brothers and challenge again! I've watched you for a whole year, don't leave any regrets!"
In the Gwangju Gymnasium, the voices cheering for ig overwhelmed those supporting ym and surged onto the stage like a wave.
Xiaotian held the back of the chair and looked at the white towels waving in the air, with the ig team name written on them, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Why do we feel like we are the villains? Everyone is counting on us to lose."
"This is enough!" Zhang Xiaowen put on the headphones fiercely.
"This is not your first time, you haven't gotten used to it yet." Left hand stood next to Xiaotian, looking at the sea of people below the stage with him.
"No matter which side we are on, we all want to win." Xiaotian said with emotion.
Only then did he recall the true weight of what Roaring Emperor said in the promotional video at the opening ceremony in Busan.
The S competition is different from the MSI. If you lose, the whole year is over. There will be no half a year to adjust, and there is no chance to make a comeback.
Tonight, ig and ym, one of them is destined to end their 2018 in Gwangju.
"Everyone has a reason why they can't lose," Su Chen walked between the two of them and said calmly, "IG is like this, and so are we."
Xiaotian nodded, took a deep breath, and then sat firmly on the chair.
ig has had a bumpy year, but ym has been going backwards all the way.
But after seeing this situation, Xiaotian's desire for victory became a little stronger than before.
He wants to go to Incheon, and he wants to be on the stage of the finals with these people around him, no matter what the ending of the story is!
"Get ready." Meng Ma's voice came from the earphones.
A few seconds later, the bp interface jumped to ten computers, and the players' expressions became serious.
"The fourth round of b05 has officially begun! ig chose the blue side, and both sides started the first round of BP!"
The coaches on both sides walked between each other's camps and started a fierce exchange of bans.
Coach Jin’s first ban was given to Kai’Sa, which also means that he will not grab ad in the first pick, otherwise there is no need to ban him himself.
Meng Ma understood the meaning and banned the sword demon with his backhand.
Soon, both sides completed their first-round bans.
ig banned Kai'Sa, male gunner, and Ryze.
ym banned Sword Demon, Enchantress, and Luo.
"Eh? ym didn't ban Qinggangying on the red side. Is this hero finally going to be released?" Sun Yalong's eyes lit up.
No matter what Meng Ma is planning, as long as the hero Qinggangying is released, he must be selected. Whether it is for the shy or King Ning, it is definitely right to grab it first, otherwise it will be released to the opponent.
Coach Jin was also unambiguous, and the blue side directly locked Qinggang Ying in the first choice!
The camera switched back and forth between the faces of the shy and Prince Ning, causing heated discussions among the audience.
It's red square ym's turn to make first and second choices.
After seeing his opponent locking Qinggang Ying, Xiaotian smiled.
As early as in the lounge, Meng Ma made it clear that if the opponent chooses the blue side, ym will choose to release Qinggangying, and they will make some counterattack BP around this point.
"Ym directly grabbed Sword Girl with his first choice, and then made up for it carefully! These two choices are a perfect counterattack against Qinggang Ying!" Sun Yalong said loudly outside the court.
Sword Princess is completely effective against Qinggang Ying in single lane, and Shen, the hero, can currently swing in three positions as midfielder, jungler, and assistant. Xiaotian used Shen as a jungler on MSI, and the effect is still very significant.
"Ym's careful selection is indeed good. Qinggang Shadow really can't beat Shen in the jungle. This hero is actually quite capable of defeating Qinggang Shadow. Moreover, if Qinggang Shadow locks the head in a team battle, Shen can also use his ultimate to support him. This is
A better backup plan." Sika analyzed.
"No wonder Qinggang Ying was released, it turns out there was some research!" Kid said he was fooled.
Coach Jin is relatively calm, knowing that since his opponent dares to let go of Qinggang Ying, he must have prepared a backup plan.
But in the life-and-death game, it is unrealistic for ig to expect to crush the opponent in terms of BP. Now all he can do is leave the game to the players.
For the blue side's second and third picks, Coach Jin first got Xia for Asui, and then locked Syndra for Rookie, thus completing his first round BP.
On the other side, after the opinion, the Mailin gunner was locked up.
Both sides entered the second round of bp.
ig banned Victor, one of the trump cards on their left hand, and then banned Tamu, who Zhang Xiaowen might play.
On the ym side, ban one of the top assistants each, and ban Kenan and Niutou.
It's red square ym's turn to make the fourth choice.
"Have you decided whether to use Shen as a jungler or as a support player for Xiaowen?" Meng Ma asked Xiaotian for his opinion.
There is no problem with small cannons, and there is no problem in using them carefully to assist. The lane itself does not lack the ability to push the lane.
Xiaotian was also hesitating. He was not sure whether the green steel shadow opposite was for Prince Ning.
"Be careful with it and go to the jungle. They should still give the shy another try," Su Chen said.
After hearing what Big Brother said, Xiaotian finally made up his mind: "Then give me Shen."
Meng Ma nodded, raised his shoulder, and asked him on the fourth floor to lock up Bronn.
"Shen is going to the jungle!" Sika immediately shouted after seeing this selection.
"Then should Qinggang Shadow be given to King Ning? If we meet Shen, Qinggang Shadow's advantage in the jungle is actually not that big." Sun Yalong asked doubtfully.
But as soon as the camera was shown to ig, the blue square on the fourth floor locked Jess in seconds!
"Ah? So confident?? Did you just choose Jace!?" Kid said in surprise.
This is different from what they just discussed. In the life-and-death game, they thought they were going to choose someone like Sion or Urgot for the shy, but they didn't expect that it was Jace who would be chosen in the end!
"Let go of Sword Girl, take Jace... It seems that Coach Jin doesn't want the shy to leave any regrets, I think that's okay," Sun Yalong softened his tone, "Now ig is just fighting against the odds. As long as the BP can bring out the strength of the players, that's fine.
of."
After locking Jace, ig then took down Kalma, completing their entire lineup.
At the moment, there is still a hero left in his left hand, and he is still hesitating after taking the Counter position.
"Don't think so much, Czar, Galio, Clockwork, Ice Girl, that's it. Just choose the one you're best at." Meng Ma said with a smile.
"It's a bit uncomfortable for Galio to beat Syndra." Xiaotian interjected in the voice.
The left hand also knew the level of Rookie's Syndra. After thinking carefully for a moment, he finally decided on Clockwork.
"Then choose." Meng Ma said calmly.
The fifth floor of the red side is locked, and the lineups of both sides are also released.
Blue square ig: top laner Jayce, jungler Qinggang Shadow, mid laner Syndra, bottom lane Xia Karma
Red square ym: top laner Sword Girl, jungler Shen, mid laner Clockwork, bottom lane cannon Braum
Compared to ym's team-fighting lineup, ig may be more biased.
With Karma's mobility, Syndra's push, and Jace's poke, it's unrealistic for ym to easily destroy the group in a wave.
But on the other hand, if King Ning's Qinggang Shadow enters the field to lock the small cannon, Shen can immediately provide support with his ultimate move. Combined with Braum's passivity, Qinggang Shadow may be melted instantly.
It's hard to say which lineup is better. Some minor flaws can be made up for by operation.
After completing the selection, Meng Ma, who was about to leave, also gave his final instructions to the players.
"If we win this one, we will enter the finals. If we lose, there will be another one, so there is no need to carry any baggage. When you see the opportunity, grab him, but don't underestimate the enemy too much. If the opponent can bring out this Jace, then
Everything has been staked."
"I'm waiting for your good news backstage!"
After saying that, Meng Ma left the stage.
In the team's voice chat, the five members of YM also laughed and communicated.
"What does g mean?" Zhang Xiaowen asked.
"If you don't do this, we will definitely beat the Sixth Brother." Xiaotian did not forget the strangeness at the critical moment.
"If Bronn doesn't cause trouble, how can we fight? I think there's something wrong with you. You're not an undercover agent, are you?" Zuo Zuo also laughed.
"I'm sorry, I'm so bad." Garlic Bastard immediately showed off his plastic Cantonese.
I was snickering as I clicked on my talent, feeling various emotions in my heart.
Su Chen, who was listening to the whispers of his teammates, took a deep breath and adjusted his concentration to the optimal level.
At this moment, he no longer wants to pay attention to the trivial matters outside the court. No matter what stories he has had with ig, this game is only about ym himself.
"Brothers, win this one and let's go to Incheon together!" he shouted loudly.
The other people who were still joking were obviously shocked by Su Chen's voice and felt his determination, so they responded one after another.
"After this fight, we'll see you in Incheon!"
"Kill, kill, kill!! ym will never work overtime!!"
"come on!"
Amid the waves of encouragement, the countdown finally ended, and Summoner's Rift descended on the Gwangju stage once again.
The fourth game of the semi-finals where the two teams put everything on the line has officially begun!
