The MVPs of the two games were won by Lin Cheng and Kuro respectively. The two of them ran to the media room to prepare for interviews.
The person in charge of the interview today is CT Wakashi who is in the commentary box.
The two greeted the camera.
CT: "A very clear victory. KT ended the regular season with a beautiful 13th consecutive victory. How does it feel to be at the top of the standings now?"
Kuro motioned to Lin Cheng to speak first.
Lin Cheng boasted: "It feels good. If I had joined KT earlier, this position would have belonged to us long ago. Now we are just back to the place that should belong to us."
Both commentators laughed, and Lin Cheng's not-so-humble character became a part of the LCK post-match interviews.
Especially European and American audiences like Lin Cheng's speaking style very much.
Logically speaking, from the moment the game ends, the number of people watching the live broadcast should drop significantly.
However, on various live broadcast platforms, especially YouTube and Twitch, the number of viewers often rises instead of falling when KT's post-match interviews begin.
It’s no wonder that LCK’s English commentators brag about Lin Cheng unscrupulously every time during the broadcast. On the one hand, his strength is on the other hand, but this guy’s personality is also quite likable.
However, there are people who like him and people who hate him, this is inevitable.
Lin Cheng is not like Faker. Even a low-key and hard-working player like Faker is still hated by some people, let alone a guy like Lin Cheng with a vicious mouth.
There are some people in both LCK and LPL who don't like Lin Cheng.
As for the LCK audience, they are mainly fans of the news agency's mortal enemy T1, as well as fans of teams that have been attacked by Lin Cheng.
Those guys were just waiting for Lin Cheng to be beaten up one day and then plummet.
As for the LPL audience, this is more complicated, and the reasons are all kinds of strange.
This person obviously has the ability, but he went to South Korea to play in the competition.
This person is too crazy and inconsistent with socialist values.
This guy is too handsome and looks out of place.
Why should this person be compared with our XXX?
People are like this, others may like you because of any inconspicuous point, or they may hate you because of a nonsensical reason.
Lin Cheng actually knew all this, but he didn't care at all.
This guy can communicate with his fans in the live broadcast room, and he cares about the opinions of other netizens.
CT: "Wow~~Cheng is still so confident when he says 'the place that should belong to us', but this ranking is not the final ranking yet. The next game between T1 and AFS may push KT off the top spot.
How's it going? What do you think of the next T1 game?"
"What do you think?"
Lin Cheng said bluntly: "Of course I want T1 to die."
CT: "···"
Guangshi: "···"
That's the truth, but isn't it too crude?
Before the S8 Summer Split finals, Ucal also cheered for KT during an interview, hoping that KT would defeat AFS's competitor Griffin and send AFS straight to the World Championship.
I would put it more euphemistically. I hope KT players will train well and strive to be in their best competitive condition to provide the audience with a wonderful game...
In fact, the core meaning is that I wish Griffin would die at that time.
But at least they put it politely.
It's not like Lin Cheng, who just said "I wish T1 would die".
Isn’t this spoiled by T1 fans?
Sure enough, because of this sentence, the barrages on Korean websites exploded.
"KKKK! I also want T1 to die."
"Battleship KT, charge!"
"Xi Ba! Why doesn't this person die?"
"I hope he is not the only one who explodes in our T1, but we will always be the greatest club."
"BO3 and BO5 are two different games, and we, T1, are the king of BO5."
"Entering T1 in the playoffs will allow KT's bastards to see the true king of news agencies."
"Sit back and watch the news agency dog eat dog."
"Isn't today a game against GEN·G? What does T1 have to do with it?"
······
CT joked and quickly changed the subject: "What about player Kuro? How do you feel now?"
"Although the process was a bit difficult today, I am still very happy to win 2:0. We will train hard in the future to bring more exciting games to the audience."
The answer of veteran Kuro can be regarded as a model, and there is nothing wrong with it.
Guangshi: "Back to the first game, first of all I want to congratulate player Cheng for his second five kills this season."
Lin Cheng expressed his thanks very politely.
Guangshi continued: "But this has to be said to be a bold attempt. In fact, the scene during the five-kill wave was very dangerous. All teammates have been killed. It seems that there is no hope. You still choose to TP and enter the battlefield alone.
, what were you thinking at the time?”
"The main reason is that my teammates in front of me have already reduced the opponent's state to a very low level. When I see a flash, I want to go in and give it a try."
Guangshi: "Didn't your teammates stop you? It seemed to us at the time that this move was really easy to pull off. After all, GEN·G players still have a lot of control."
"Actually, my teammates have advised me to give up, but I think there is a chance to give it a try. Anyway, I have sent a big wave before, so I don't care about giving it one more time."
Lin Cheng looked back with a little bit of joy, "Fortunately, they were easier to kill than expected."
"???Is this human language?"
"They are easier to kill than expected, 23333."
"The senior colonel felt like beating someone after hearing this."
"Brother Chengzi is too crazy! I've given away a lot of big ones anyway, so I don't care anymore."
"Isn't this just me? I've already delivered it anyway, so I don't care if I deliver it twice more later."
"It's different. You can't stop sending it, but Brother Chengzi can still operate it."

CT: "Today's game is the first appearance of Riven in this year's LCK Spring Split. The fact that he did not appear on the field until the last week of the game shows that everyone does not pay much attention to this hero. Why did such a choice be made on the red side at that time?
"
Lin Cheng: "The main reason is that my ranking Riven feels good recently, and I don't think Riven is difficult to beat Ornn, so I just want to give it a try, and the coach also agrees with my choice."
CT: "Oh? Does player Cheng think Riven is easy to beat Ornn? But the data shows that Riven is difficult to take advantage of Ornn in lane. Do you have any tips to share with us?"
Lin Cheng: "The most important thing when playing Ornn online is to pay attention to his fragility. Don't give him a chance to break easily. When exchanging blood, try to be close to your face and use the QA that wears your body to avoid Ornn's W tail flames.
, or you can use the E skill to pull away when Ornn turns W. Anyway, the priority is to ensure your own status."
CT: "But I also play Riven myself, and it seems difficult to hide from Ornn's skills."
"Can't hide?"
Lin Cheng said bluntly: "If you can't avoid it, why are you playing Riven? Let's fight with Illaoi instead."
