Lin Cheng got up early, put on a mask and went out.
Lin Cheng is used to walking in a nearby park on the morning of game days to breathe some fresh air and get his brain excited as soon as possible.
The streets of Seoul are very busy in the early morning, and pedestrians on the road are in a hurry. Most of the people who go out at this time are people running for life. Lin Cheng seems a bit out of place.
After wandering around the park and teasing the stray cats who were as leisurely as him, Lin Cheng had breakfast outside and returned to the base.
I went into the gym for half an hour of high-intensity exercise, and then started a personal RANK session.
Everything is not much different from usual.
At nearly 5 pm Korean time, the semi-finals of the 2020 LCK Spring Split Playoffs officially started.
KT training room.
The team members each checked their equipment one last time and chatted while waiting for the game to start.
Lin Cheng sat in his seat, holding a cup and drinking water.
Kuro stood up from his position, came over and patted his shoulder, "Lin Cheng, don't be nervous, just hit like usual."
Lin Cheng was about to speak, and Bono next to him also patted his shoulder, "It's easy to be nervous when playing BO5 for the first time. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. I will help you catch more today."
Tusin also came to join in the fun and yelled out the Chinese phrase he learned from Bono: "Chengbao can fly with peace of mind! We will take care of you if anything happens."
Lin Cheng put down the cup in his hand, looking confused.
"What are you doing? I wasn't nervous at all originally, but your battle made me a little nervous."
Kuro: "Why are you drinking water all the time if you're not nervous?"
Lin Cheng: "I'm thirsty. I ate too many chocolate biscuits just now."
Kuro: "·····"
Chinese streaming Huya live broadcast room, today's game commentary is jointly provided by Keji and Junri.
Junil: "Here it comes! The battle for the last LCK ticket to the finals in the spring of 2020 is about to begin. KT will face off against DRX. Let's see who can grab this final ticket."
Keji: "It can be said that both KT and DRX are undergoing major changes this year. Last year, KZ changed its name to DRX and chose to rebuild around Deft. This year, KT launched a new lineup that combines the old and the new.
Although both teams have had their own ups and downs along the way, their goals are definitely the same and they have both reached this point. Today’s game will definitely be fierce.”
Junri: “I don’t know if it’s reincarnation. In the summer split of Season 8, McGregor led Griffin, who had just been promoted to LCK, to the playoff finals, but fell at the feet of KT at the time.
Then last year Griffin entered the finals twice in a row, but fell at the feet of SKT in the end. Even if DRX can pass KT today, they will face T1 later.
I'm thinking, won't Brother Mai want to win the championship four times in a row, but he will be sniped halfway by the two brothers from the news agency?"
"Hey! It's really like that."
Keji joked: "Brother Mike must be thinking: Why are the two brothers from the news agency still haunting me? The year before last, KT did something to me, and last year, SKT made crazy mistakes and went around in circles. I didn't expect it to be these two this year."
"In any case, Mike brought his two disciples to DRX with the hope of winning an LCK championship. If DRX can defeat KT today, this will be the fourth consecutive time that Mike has led the team to the LCK finals.
This is a record that has never been achieved."
Junri changed his tone: "Of course, if Brother Mai fails in the finals again, it will create a very embarrassing record. There has never been a coach in the history of LCK who has won four consecutive championships, although he also holds the record of three consecutive championships.
."
"Brother Chengzi charges the duck!"
"Brother Cheng: I will protect the glory of the news agency."
"You didn't expect it, did you? It's me again·JPG."
"Brother Mai, it's better not to enter the finals. If you lose in the finals, you will have inner demons."
"Compared with Brother Mai's embarrassing record, I'm more curious about what kind of cool tricks he will come up with."
"Trivia: In the key game of BO5, Mike must have something cool."
"Dolan's top laner Kalista is ready."
"The ace pilot applied to fly! I just want to see who will fly first, Mr. Dai or Dolan."
······
Although the semi-finals are also an online competition, compared with the regular season, there are more cameras in front of the players' computers, which can record every move of the players in front of the camera in real time.
The process of waiting for the game to start was a bit boring, and Lin Cheng adjusted the camera angle above his computer screen again and again.
He always felt that the camera installed by the staff was a bit crooked.
When the broadcast cut to the contestant scene, Lin Cheng waved to the camera and showed a big smile.
"Hello! Annie!"
Junri: "Here...although I can't hear the player's voice, but judging from the mouth shape, Orange Brother should be saying hello."
Keji was amused: "I can see that Brother Chengzi is a very funny person, but the camera is so harsh on his face, he has really good looks."
Junri: “LCK votes for the most beautiful players in the forum every year. I’m curious if Orange will have a chance to hit the list this year.”
"The opportunity must be great. Even if my brother-in-law and my eldest princess are both in the LCK this year, Brother Chengzi can play as well as he has good looks."
Keji changed the topic: "Back to the topic, Junri, what do you think of today's game? Who do you like more between the two?"
Junil thought for a while: "Judging from the state, KT definitely has an advantage in entering the playoffs with 13 consecutive wins in the regular season, but it's hard to say BO5.
After all, everyone knows Brother Mai, and it is entirely possible that something very sexy suddenly comes out today and catches KT by surprise."
Keji joked: "Three Pantheon Rockbirds in a row?"
Junri: "That's too much. Stop whipping Brother Mai. He gave up this routine after the spring finals last year."
Corgi: "Don't tell me, I feel that after Pan Sen's revision, this routine can really be tried. The rock bird in the bottom lane can be used as a magic core."
Junri: "Mr. Dai is not a Viper after all. He rarely plays core heroes. It just depends on whether he can practice secretly under the guidance of Brother Mai."
Today also happens to be the start of the LPL playoffs. In the first round, the veteran giant WE will face the new team ES.
However, since the LCK game started one hour earlier, countless viewers waiting for the LPL game to start chose to watch the LCK game first to pass the time.
I happened to hear that KT’s Chinese top laner is very powerful, and many viewers who usually only follow LPL games came to join in the fun.
"Is this the new top laner in the world that Brother Guan boasts of? He looks really handsome."
“It’s very exciting to watch the news, but you have to listen to the news from self-media at a discount.”
"I agree, as long as the self-media is shameless in terms of traffic, it can make the Spanish football king of the second division comparable to Messi."
"I've watched Brother Chengzi's live broadcast, it's really a great show."
"Stop talking, can you beat Brother Stick, the wheelchair-bound God of War?"
