During the intermission after the first game of the final, in the lounge where both teams were located, all the coaches and players were having intensive discussions about the upcoming second game.
In the SKT lounge, head coach KKoma is leading his players to quickly review the first game in which they were given a clean sheet.
kkoma very carefully put forward some points that the team members needed to improve and pay attention to, and asked them to make some details more perfect.
This doesn't seem to be a problem. After reviewing it, it's quite normal.
The problem is that this kind of detailed review is usually done by the coach after the game is over and the players return to the base.
We are still in the game at the moment and are about to go on to play the second game.
There is only one explanation. In the upcoming second game, SKT is not planning to make any changes and will continue to use the general tactical strategy they used in the first game.
Although they lost miserably in the first game.
But KKoma probably doesn’t think there are too many problems with his playing style. The main problem lies in the execution of his players.
So he immediately made a detailed review of the first game and tried to make the players do their best in the second game.
With Coach KKoma’s behavior, I don’t know whether to say he is confident or arrogant.
Or maybe... a tough guy?
As the most successful head coach in the history of professional League of Legends games, KKoma naturally has his own pride.
If today's final was the S3 final in which he had never led a team to win the S championship, he would have immediately changed his tactics after the disastrous defeat in the first game of the final.
But now he is the head coach of three championships. Under the current situation, he decided not to make too many changes and continue to play another set.
On OMG's side, although Mingzhe didn't know the relevant decisions made by kkoma, they successfully won the first game of the finals. He didn't need to make too many changes. When the time comes, BP will just see what they can do.
Time passed quickly and the intermission time was over.
Lu Chen stood up from his chair first and formed a circle with his teammates. After everyone shouted "come on" a few times, they walked towards the door of the lounge.
...
"Okay, dear viewers, welcome back and continue to watch the final bo5 of the League of Legends 2017 Global Finals."
After the live broadcast camera returned to the scene, Changmao came up and read the advertising slogans of Datong sponsors.
The camera panned across the auditorium, and the enthusiasm of the audience was very high.
"So...the game will continue!"
The advertisement is finally finished.
"Omg was in the lead before, so now OMG's temporary lead of 1-0 should put a lot of pressure on SKT."
"In the next second game, will OMG take advantage of the victory and hit the match point? Or will SKT fight back and tie the score?"
"But before that, let's..."
After Changmao finished advertising, Guan Zeyuan actually went off topic and started promoting peripheral figures for this global finals.
There is no way, the sponsor gave too much!
After another round of small talk, the discussion in the commentary box finally returned to the topic.
"Okay, let's continue talking about the game." Guan Zeyuan said: "I was just halfway through. In fact, the key point I want to talk about is that in terms of the strength of each line, Lu Shen's performance as a top laner is undoubtedly
Better than huni.”
"In terms of the jungle score, the performance of both junglers is almost the same. As for the performance of the mid lane, Faker's performance should be superior in skill. I handled it very well in the game just now."
"There is also a score in the bottom lane. In theory, SKT's bottom lane should be stronger, but in the competitive state of the game just now, there is no doubt that the old thief Sima beat Bang."
"I think for SKT, the key point they want to win today is actually the same as when they faced rng in the semi-finals." Changmao continued: "Open up the middle lane where you have the most advantage, because once you let it go
If you choose a relatively cheap hero like Malzahar, you won't be able to gain an advantage. Once your middle lane is blocked, your jungler will be at a disadvantage, and your early rhythm will be lost."
Hearing this, Guan Zeyuan nodded and said: "In the same way, I think OMG can just play like they did in the first game. There is no need to actively seek changes when they are leading."
"Yes, OMG's strategy is definitely to maintain the situation of the previous game, and SKT's struggle to find a loophole, what kind of situation will evolve?"
"Let's hand the camera over to the commentary box now!"
...
After Qijiang's most classic "The World Focuses on You" commercial, the camera stayed at the commentator's seat.
"Okay, welcome to continue watching the second finals showdown." Remember said: "In the history of the League of Legends Global Finals, four teams have engraved their team names on the Summoner's Trophy.
"
"So today, is SKT clinking trophies for the fourth time, or will OMG engrave a new name on the Summoner's Trophy?"
"Looking at the second game of the final bo5 between the two sides, bp has started, omg is still on the blue side, and skt is still on the red side!"
Install the latest version.]
The camera quickly scanned the faces of the ten players on both sides, and then the BP interface appeared on the big screen.
First round bp.
omg got rid of Galio, Luo, and Piggy.
SKT killed Kalista, Jace, and Cannon.
"The first three bans on both sides seem to be exactly the same as in the previous game!" Miller said.
At this time, the BP of the first game was also given at the bottom of the screen. Remember to say: "Indeed, the first three bans on both sides are the same as the first game, so let's take a look at the selections of both sides."
The selection countdown only lasted a few seconds, and omg directly locked Feng Nu on the first floor of the blue square.
"Oh, omg here, it's Feng Nu who snatched it away with the first hand. It's still Feng Nu. The BP is the same as in the previous game." pdd said.
SKT did not hesitate too much. The countdown for selection also lasted only a few seconds, and they successively took down Varus and the wine barrel on the first and second floors of the red square.
"Hey, replay! It's the same, exactly the same." Miller chuckled.
"Exchanging ultimatums, changing ultimatums, the boss changes ultimatums, I have watched this episode."
After pdd said something sarcastic, he continued: "Actually, after watching the last game, I believe many people have the same idea as me, that is, there are not enough cards in SKT this year."
"Except for Brother Li, it's still Brother Li, but..." Miller continued: "Except for this trump card, there are no other cards!"
"Yes, in fact, you can see in the last game that in the end Lee Sang Hyuk...fake his last snake girl, and when he found the opportunity to fight Ma Ge, there was really no one around him who could stand up."
As several commentators exchanged these few words, the two sides on the field had quickly completed the selection of the first three players.
omg locked Xayah and Malzahar on the second and third floor of the blue square.
skt locked Lu Lu on the third floor of the red square.
In the first round of BP, both sides banned players, selected players, and selected players in the same order as in the first round.
"Hey, I've seen this before, there's no difference!" Miller said with a smile.
"It's different!" I remember saying suddenly.
On the big screen at the scene, skt was in the fourth ban position and banned Zach.
In the first game, skt was in this position and it was Sword Girl who was banned.
Second round of bp.
SKT killed Zack, Shen.
omg got rid of Syndra and Rock Bird.
"OMG will continue to ban the mid laner here, just like the previous game, but SKT will no longer ban Sword Queen and choose to ban Zac."
pdd continued: "I think this game of SKT should give the counter position to top laner Huni."
"Indeed!" Miller nodded, "Everyone who is played by Lu Shen Kante will have a hard time without exception."
As soon as he finished speaking, SKT locked Ryze on the fourth floor.
"Oh, it's changed. Ryze is here. Sure enough, Faker played the hero first, leaving the counter position to the top laner." Miller said confidently: "I don't think this Ryze is as good as the top laner."
The possibility of swinging is 100% mid laner Ryze."
Although Faker's most famous operation is the double calamity battle, if you want to choose a hero that Faker is most destined for and the hero he trusts most when the situation is unfavorable, it must be Ryze.
Not to mention, in this global finals, skt was in the quarterfinals with the rabbit team from Europe.
When skt fell behind 1 to 2, faker took out Ryze in the fourth game of bo5, and Ryze turned the tide against the big headwind and dragged the game into the deciding game.
"I think skt's change of thinking on this point is very correct." pdd said: "If skt wants to make the game more playable, faker must use this kind of supporting role."
"Yes, the one who leads the rhythm and controls the rhythm." Miller nodded, "Then what top and jungle combination will OMG choose?"
Without much hesitation, omg locked the prince and Nar on the fourth and fifth floor of the blue square.
"The prince has nothing to say. World 6 is the most played jungle hero in this world championship. In the semi-finals with Samsung, he played several games in a row."
pdd continued: "As for Lu Shen's Gnar, that's a bit interesting! In the last game, Huni, you didn't seem to be very good at playing Gnar. I'm going to teach you how to play Gnar in this game, hehe~"
"It all depends on Huni. How did Gnar get defeated in the last round? Then in this round, Huni must at least prove to the coach that giving him the counter position was the right decision."
"Will he also take Kennen?" I remember suddenly saying: "Because when he played RNG before, we have seen him use Qinggang Shadow to fight Gnar. What hero did Huni use in the end to fight Lu Shen?
Gnar who chose actively?"
"I don't think Huni has a high chance of taking Kennen!" pdd shook his head.
Suddenly there was an exclamation at the scene. With the countdown to selection running out, SKT revealed Yasuo on the fifth floor of the red square.
"Oh, Yasuo!"
"Yasuo is definitely Conte Naer. I support this hero because I am looking forward to it!" Miller said.
"I'm looking forward to it too," I remember saying.
"It's confirmed, Yasuo chooses to face Hayate!"
The audience also cheered and applauded.
Even though most of the audience at the scene today came to support OMG, even though it was an SKT player who selected Yasuo.
But as long as you dare to choose Yasuo as a hero on the highest stage of League of Legends, you are worthy of the audience's cheers and victory.
Because Yasuo represents true happiness.
In the event live broadcast room, the barrage also fell into complete madness.
"I'll go, Happy Style Man!"
"Hasakei!"
"Face Hayate!"
"0-21-0, do you understand what I mean?"
"Sorry God Lu, I rebelled this game. My heart tells me that as a loyal Yasuo player, I must support Yasuo."
"..."
The director was also quite interesting. After SKT locked Yasuo on the fifth floor, the camera first focused on Huni's face.
Huni was communicating non-stop, with a solemn expression on his face.
Then the camera immediately cut to Lu Chen, who was smiling, as if he was the one who chose Yasuo and gained happiness.
Lu Chen was indeed very happy, but what he was happy about was not that Huni chose Yasuo, but that KKoma seemed to have made a mistake.
Wasting a ban slot to ban Zac is definitely not a good choice.
In the last game of World 6, Zach was focusing on vision from beginning to end. Zach's heroic characteristics were not used at all, and he even got robbed of the baron.
You can do things like vision with any hero or jungler you play.
From the fact that SKT chose to ban Zach, we can safely guess that SKT had no idea how to crack OMG's tactical system.
Really speaking, this World 6 game may be easier to play with Prince than with Zack.
After all, the hero Prince is too much of a threat to Varus, who has no displacement skills.
On the big screen at the scene, the countdown to the last minute before the loading interface had entered. Players from both sides also quickly changed heroes, and the ten heroes went to where they should go.
Miller continues his "support".
"With this Yasuo selection, Huni must show it to KKoma. It is valuable if you bring me to the global finals without untlra!"
As soon as Miller finished speaking, pdd chuckled. This smile was very weird.
"Huni was able to select top laner Yasuo in front of Lu Shen. I think...there is indeed applause here, and it is worthy of applause."
"But..." pdd changed the subject, "I wonder if you have any impressions of omg's game?"
"Which game?" Miller asked curiously.
"It's a regular season match between OMG and LGD in this summer split."
pdd continued: "I remember that Lu Shen had just played a few games at that time, and then in the game against LGD, Lu Shen took out the top laner Yasuo to beat Jinoo's Gnar."
"In that game, Lu Shen's Yasuo defeated Gnar!"
"So Miller, what you just said about Yasuo is right, but judging from that game, Lu Shen is definitely very good at playing Yasuo."
No need for pdd to point it out, Miller already understood what he meant.
Miller has also commented on many of Lu Chen's games. He knows very well that Lu Chen will never be defeated by a hero that he is very good at playing in a single lane.
Of course, Miller is happy to see this.
Of course, he still supported Lu Chen and omg. Just now he was just out of excitement about seeing Yasuo in the finals of the S game.
The pilot shot cuts out of the glass room where the contestants are, overlooking the entire main stage.
The head coaches of both teams walked to the center of the stage and shook hands.
This time it was in the middle. This "middle solo" was not taken advantage of by Mingzhe.
