After defeating RGE, KT easily swept PSG on the third match day, achieving three consecutive wins at the beginning of the group stage.
PSG looked like a god of war when they faced Lao Gan Daddy in the qualifying round. Everyone thought they still had some strength. However, they didn't expect to be brutally beaten by the three teams in the same group in turn, and they had no power to fight back.
As of the third match day, the three seeded teams in the LCK have not lost a single game since the start of the competition.
KT took the lead to reach 3 wins, while GEN and DWG both have one game left to play in the first round. They both have two wins so far.
Seeing such a terrifying performance from the LCK team, LPL viewers are no longer so optimistic.
It was said before the game that they would win the top four, but now it seems very uncertain, but the LCK teams are showing a strong tendency to make a comeback after two years of sluggishness.
Even a team like GEN·G can win two consecutive games in the group of death. The LCK seems to have something going for it this year.
You know, among the LPL commentary predictions, few people except Ze Yuan are optimistic that GEN·G can break through from Group C.
Before this year's World Championship, I saw a lot of LCK teams being killed by KT and DWG. Many people thought that KT and DWG were indeed strong, but other LCK teams did win.
Therefore, at first everyone thought that the other seed of LCK was just for fun.
But the current performance of GEN·G is at least not really good, so the gold content of KT and DWG may be even greater.
And the most terrifying thing is that all five games won by KT and DWG were crushing games. No one dares to deny the strength of these two teams.
"LPL still wants to win the semi-finals? I think the three LCK teams will be surrounded and suppressed by the top four"
"When DWG defeats TES, we have a chance to top the three groups in the first round"
"It looks like KT will play DWG in the finals. As for GEN·G, just let it happen"
"Facts prove that T1 is stronger without coming to LCK"
Win a game and blow it for a while, the trend of the Internet is so real.
However, LCK fans did not have to wait long to be happy. In the next day's game, GEN·G and DWG lost one after another.
GEN·G's loss to FNC is not a surprise. After all, GEN·G is most afraid of the style of European teams that bully the weak and fear the strong. The loss to FNC is not an upset.
But DWG's loss to TopBo calmed down the newly swollen LCK audience.
KT beat the LPL's second seed violently, but the match between the LCK's true second-best team and TopBo was not very good.
Taobao won this game relatively easily. Jakeylove's Senna performed amazingly and played a dominant performance on the court.
The Ghost King originally needed to withstand more pressure in DWG's tactical system, but in this game the Ghost King wanted to prove himself and chose Draven, his specialty in his career.
Then DWG paid the price for its sudden change of tactical tendencies.
Something happened to the ghostly Draven online.
It is obvious that Senna is more powerful in the later stage, but Brother Shui Zi just relied on his personal performance to gain a huge advantage in the early stage.
Not only in the bottom lane, but also in the top lane, the 369 dice rolled well, and he did not fall behind against Niu Bao. Although the left hand in the middle is still not as good as the league, Xu Xiu is also in average shape.
Online is the cornerstone of team battles, and Kaa is the rhythm cornerstone of Tao Bo.
With his teammates' laning advantage, Kaa regained the feeling of being invincible in the LPL at the beginning of the summer split. When more emphasis was placed on the development of the jungle, Kaa went crazy to control resources with rhythm.
In this version, the reason why European and American teams always have trouble playing jungle core is that their junglers do a poor job of balancing GANK and jungle gains.
Maybe if you GANK once online, your jungle area will explode.
This is a big part of the reason why KT doesn't play wild core.
Everyone can play jungle, but Bono is more accustomed to helping his teammates in the lane to establish an advantage, which means he is destined to be unable to play the "alone" essence of jungle core.
And Kaa is actually not a jungle core expert, he is an excellent rhythm jungler, and his title of the world's number one jungler in the first fifteen minutes was not gained by brushing the jungle.
But although he is not good at jungle core play, Kaa does a good job of balancing GANK and jungle gains. As long as his teammates have an advantage online, he can lead the rhythm and control resources, and he can do well in the jungle.
TaoBo's double C has been touted, but in fact the jungler's role in TaoBo is no less than that of the double C. TaoBo is a strong team when it is not pulling the brother.
It was extremely uncomfortable to play this game when the disadvantaged jungle area was invaded online.
It can be said that Taobo defeated DWG using KT's method, which was to give extremely strong suppression online and make the jungle area mute. Once confused, DWG's jungle core tactics failed.
In the end, Ah Shui scored 50% of the damage and won the MVP.
You know, Brother Shui Zi’s winning rate for Senna at the top of the canyon was 0%, but in the group stage, he performed very well with Senna three times in a row.
It turns out that RANK and competition are really completely different games.
Although the reason why DWG lost the game was that they deviated from the way they are best at playing the game and let the Ghost King choose a hero like Draven that needs to be taken care of, this does not mean that Taobo won by taking advantage.
After all, Ghost King also picked Policewoman and Draven in the LCK, so DWG could still win.
It seems that although Taobao suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of KT in MSC, they may be stronger now.
This game also sparked huge discussion in South Korea.
"Is this Jakeylove? It's amazing."
"This time I really understand what one man army is, it's really a super carry"
"It's really amazing that Senna can actually achieve this kind of effect. I really want to see him play against Leler"
"It's Shi Yi's A, and the nurse hasn't performed so well."
"Knight won even before he even exerted his strength."
"If Taobao maintains this state, defeating KT doesn't seem to be a problem."
"It's useless! No matter how good a stinky AD is at playing, g will always find a way to deal with him"
"Sit and wait for g to be smashed 369!"
In the words of Korean netizens, Ah Shui has reached the limit of Senna as a hero in this round.
It was extremely vicious, but it rarely gave him any chance.
This fierce yet stable feeling is actually very similar to Lin Cheng's.
With the ID covered, they even thought that Lin Cheng had gone to Taobao to fight AD.
Of course, Lin Cheng is fierce and steady most of the time. Ah Shui can only say that this game was fierce and steady.
Brother Shuizi is both fierce and giving away most of the time.
Because this match in Tobo gave the LPL audience confidence, many fans who were still pessimistic yesterday came back to life.
Among them, the most talked about topic among TaoBo fans is naturally TaoBo’s ‘upper limit’.
Because the operation is very entertaining and he often performs various miraculous team battles, LPL viewers generally believe that the upper limit of Taobo is immeasurable.
In fact, this is very similar to the original IG.
Although Knight has not yet recovered from the official poisonous milk, once the mid laner returns to form, fans have reason to believe that Taobao can completely defeat KT.
Of course, when it comes to the topic of the upper limit, Taobao fans always seem to ignore the corresponding 'lower limit' issue.
Since there are always people in the team giving gifts, the Taobo show is also very real when it comes to the upper and lower limits.
