Back in the lounge, the KT players were inevitably a little excited.
Kang Dongxun praised him calmly and then let everyone rest and prepare for the next game.
It is Kang Dongxun's habit to leave half time to the players to adjust as much as possible. This group of relatively experienced players does not need a nanny-style coach.
Lin Cheng took out his cell phone, and there was a message on it from Han Shuyan.
I heard that we have set a record, keep up the good work!
·····
Huya’s broadcast screen was shown to the LCK commentary box.
The MVP results of the second game have been announced, and as expected, Lin Cheng’s Qinggang Shadow was unanimously elected MVP.
Lin Cheng's bust appeared on the right side of the screen. He folded his arms and turned slightly sideways. His figure was tall and strong, and his handsome and sunny face was full of confidence.
90% team participation rate, 13 kills, 0 deaths and 5 assists.
If combined with the game time, the average number of players participating in more than one kill per minute is simply atrocious data.
Yin Subin: "Sure enough! Player Cheng was elected as the MVP of the second game with his amazing performance. He appeared in the middle lane for the first time and showed us his unparalleled gaming talent. Even if he is not on the top lane, he is still the top professional player."
CT: "Yes! The game ideas in the middle lane and the top lane are different, but it is clear that Cheng has mastered the game strategy of the mid laner very well. He is not obsessed with suppressing the opponent in the lane all the time, but frequently uses his early advantage to push the lane.
He roamed to support his teammates, and it was his support that caused all T1 lines to collapse early."
Mr. Huang Dongjun, the Tiekezao in the commentary box, did not say a word. The Bible he sang in the previous round seemed to have entered the CD. He did not take the initiative to speak other than agreeing with his partner's words.
"Brother Cheng is awesome! This is the world's number one mid laner who performed well."
"This KT looks so scary! LPL feels difficult this year."
“This year’s S-League is being held in China, we must not let LCK take away the championship.”
"The only way to prevent KT from winning the championship is to ban Orange Bro."
"Do you have any brothers in Seoul? Please go gank offline before the World Championship, Brother Cheng. You will be the first to win the LPL."
"Crowdfunding for air tickets and accommodation to Seoul, and I'm going to sap Lin Chengyi to ensure that he misses the World Championships."
······
Soon, the third game started.
In this round, T1 had no lead, and both Dao Mei and Qinggang Shadow were banned. KT got a teamfight lineup.
Top laner Kennen, jungler Olaf, mid laner Clockwork, bottom lane Ice + Braum.
The T1 lineup also favors team battles, with Vampire in the top lane, Wild Bear in the jungle, Tsar in the mid lane, and Lu Xia + Rakan in the bottom lane.
The middle and upper C positions of both sides are very developed, and there were not many battles in the early stages.
However, Lin Cheng was caught in a wave at more than five minutes. In the middle, Li Getsar took control of the lane. Suddenly TP went to the lane to cooperate with Bear and Vampire to attack Kennan who was pressing the lane.
At this time, Lin Cheng didn't even have a big move. When he saw the Czar drifting over without zooming in, he didn't waste his flash, and was stunned and killed by the bear.
On the other side, Bono took the opportunity to capture Xiaolong, making Lin Cheng's death not in vain.
Lin Cheng's early performance in this game made T1 fans in Wolf's live broadcast room laugh at him.
"He came from the middle and defeated Faker in one game and ran away! You can't afford it, right?"
"In the last game, we played so aggressively in the middle, and then we started to develop peacefully when we returned to the top?"
"Deliberately targeting Faker is really disgusting."
"If Kennen hits the target, he will definitely be beaten by Faker."
Of course, Lin Cheng quickly shut them up.
During the battle for Canyon Pioneer, Han Bing took the lead and forced out Xia's ultimate move with one arrow. Lin Cheng's flash that he saved just now allowed him to directly use his ultimate move to cooperate with his teammates and kill Xia in seconds, and knocked down Luo and Gou Xiong.
.
Cuzz was immediately scared, and the bear came to escape with a big move, and the vanguard was easily controlled by KT.
KT had a small initiative in the early stage, but due to the lineup, it would be difficult for them to quickly expand the snowball without freeing up the bottom lane.
After all, in this round's lineup, T1 is relatively able to accept some disadvantages in the early stage. As long as they develop smoothly into the late team battle, it will be difficult for them to lose.
Even though KT also has late-stage teamfight heroes like Clockwork Kennen, T1's top lane vampire cannot be handled by the KT lineup. Once the mid-to-late stage teamfight enters, KT will have a hard time fighting without equipment advantage.
On the contrary, Kennen did not perform well against the T1 lineup. The opponent had many ways to avoid Kennen's ultimate move, and Lin Cheng could easily lose it if he was not careful.
Therefore, T1 tries its best to avoid battles and develop, hoping to delay the decisive victory in team battles in the later stages.
However, KT's resource control was so good that the first three dragons were firmly in hand. In just 23 minutes, T1 faced the pressure of Dragon Soul.
When the two sides gathered to prepare for the Dragon Soul Regiment, they seized the opportunity of the T1 lineup being out of touch and used Clockwork's ultimate move to force Kasumi's ultimate move in the middle. KT's four middle, lower and jungle brothers pursued it frantically.
Teddy was using his ultimate move to purify the ice instantly, then dodged to get away from Olaf, and moved around wildly to avoid the skill.
Luo activated his ultimate move to stop everyone chasing KT.
Afraid that the support from the rest of T1 would be in place, KT, who finally seized the opportunity, naturally did not want to give up. Panro and Bono flashed together to kill Kasumi.
But after killing Xia, it was too late to retreat. The rest of T1 intercepted from the side.
KT used too many skills to kill Xayah, and faced a vampire that entered the field with almost no restrictions. Clockwork and Karma died quickly.
After Olaf opened up his face, he didn't even touch the vampire twice before being evaded by the blood pool. Then the vampire got up and fought back, and cooperated with the bear to kill Olaf.
But this wave is not KT’s defeat.
Brother Li's czar entered Jiaotong University to cooperate with Luo Liuren, and the two of them were directly killed by Lin Cheng's push stick.
Lin Cheng and Ai Ming were fighting each other, and Vampire and Bear immediately chose to deal with Kenan.
But Lin Cheng flashed back to avoid Bear's ultimate move, and then moved A wildly to pull the output.
The vampire charged up E, Tide of Blood, and charged forward with the red fury Q, which was about to be prepared.
However, Lin Cheng activated his E skill to speed up and move away, not only dodging the blood tide, but also making it impossible for the vampire Red Fury Q, who had not flashed, to take action.
Han Bing had been stealing some bears on the other side, and when he noticed something was wrong, the vampire turned around and tried to find Han Bing, but Han Bing easily moved away after slowing down with W.
When the vampire's red fury disappeared, Kennen used his Q skill from a distance to trigger a passive stun, and KT turned around to fight.
A vampire without a blood pool is just a squishy one. Canna, who had one round of skills in her hand, was embarrassed and was dragged to death by two people.
The remaining Cuzz had to be walked. The bear got on all fours and rushed towards the ice, but was pulled madly by Ai Ming, who was broken and slowed down.
Kenan Ping A played passively, and Gou Xiong also died on the spot.
T1 endured most of the game, but finally prepared to kill the Dragon Soul team, and KT won the Wind Dragon Soul.
Although it seems that the Wind Dragon Soul's combat power has not improved much, KT accurately grasped the time difference of the ultimate move brought by the Wind Dragon and directly forced the Baron.
When the vampire's ultimate move failed, T1 was forced to come over to take over the Baron team fight.
Lin Cheng's Kenan TP circled behind and cut into the back row of T1 without flashing. The T1 formation was instantly destroyed.
Once again, the team was destroyed. After KT won the Baron, the economic gap was completely widened, and they easily won the game.
In the heavy rain in Seoul, KT won the fifth telecom war this year with a handicap.
