The junior boy also stood up. He looked up and looked at the five AFS people on the other side who were sitting motionless and staring at the screen as if they were in a daze. He felt inexplicably refreshed.
Being able to play in the LPL division for so long, it is obvious that the youngster really likes the LPL division.
After all, LPL is more advantageous than LCK from various angles and conditions.
Especially the atmosphere in the team, with no class pressure, makes the juniors feel very comfortable getting along.
Although he occasionally saw some vlogs or interactive videos made by the EDG club on the LCK forum, they were all posted online and blackmailed, such as "People from the EDG club force teammates to call themselves dad, which is crazy." "EDG
The management's failure to contain teammates caused their necks to be broken" and other strange words...
"Go shake hands."
Li Luo stood up and stretched.
The game lasted just over twenty minutes, but Li Luo was a little tired.
The pressure caused by the extreme operation on the three waves is still a little bit.
Especially before the start of the game, AFS was considered by them to be the most difficult opponent to face this time.
Of course, this is what two coaches, Abramovich and even Zhu Kai, think.
Before the intercontinental tournament started, Li Luo didn't think any of the four LCK teams participating in the intercontinental tournament was particularly difficult to deal with. It wasn't that Li Luo was arrogant, but that this year was indeed dark for the LCK. Each LCK team
None of them have adjusted their own status to the best.
Needless to say, KZ has maintained its dominance in the LCK since last year.
But in one S game and one MSI, not only did they not play the kind of dominance they deserved to be number one in the LCK division, but they seemed to have lowered the overall level of the LCK division.
Previously, many old EDG fans teased KZ on the forum. The general meaning is that KZ seems to have suffered from the disease of the previous EDG team. If the EDG team had not performed very well in the past six months, KZ would probably not be called Korea.
EDG.
They are the ones who are experts in civil war and outsiders in foreign war.
AFS, the second best team in the division, was holding its own before this game.
But the problem is... they are too stable.
Li Luo has studied AFS competitions.
According to the standard LCK division model, whichever team has the lowest turnover rate will be more likely to succeed in the LCK.
The KZ team is an outlier. The reason why they can dominate the AFS team in the competition is because KZ's attack can tear apart AFS's defense, that's all.
Other teams cannot beat AFS because their attack power is average. To fight with AFS, they can only follow the normal LCK style of play and wait for opportunities for the opponent to make mistakes.
KT has just been formed not long ago, and the team as a whole is currently in a state of integration and advancement. It is indeed unstable in balanced games and even disadvantaged games, and it is too easy to give AFS opportunities.
As for SKT…
Let’s not talk about SKT this season. It can be said that except for the bottom duo’s status which has improved after they lifted the “meditation training”, the status of the other positions is not very good.
In other words, since KZ lost its reputation in the foreign war, almost all Korean netizens have placed their thoughts on AFS.
It's good now, AFS is also being abused.
Even if the opponent is EDG...it won't be like this, right?
Did you agree before going out that you could play EDG for at least 40 minutes?
West Parama!
When they shook hands, it was no surprise that everyone in AFS was so embarrassed.
Especially the jungler spirit, whose stinky face reminded Li Luo of a word he used to describe the Korean team during last year's World Championship.
It's like mourning an heir.
"The resentment of this fried noodle monster seems to be very deep."
After the handshake ceremony ended and everyone in EDG walked towards the center of the stage, Xiaotian said.
"In e-sports, being dishonest is the original sin. If you still scream after being beaten, it means you are incompetent and furious. So he is very angry, but he can only hold it in."
Meiko smiled and then changed the subject: "I don't know if my pike can be banned after this one."
"Your Pike may not be sure, but Brother Luo's Xia has a high probability of being able to make it."
The junior boy said from the side: "I, Pike, am no worse than you at playing."
"Okay, stop bragging."
Meiko and her junior brother quarreled with each other.
…
As the bowing ceremony ended, the short interview after the BO1 also came.
Li Luo was naturally brought over by the director to work as a coolie. After all, there was another team's name on Li Luo's hunting list. After all, he wanted to be interviewed as a celebration.
The host responsible for the interview today is Yu Shuang.
Yu Shuang, wearing a cheongsam, smiled and said hello to Li Luo first. After receiving the director's prompt, she straightened her face and looked at the camera.
"We are very happy to invite a familiar Shine player to accept our post-match interview. Let's say hello to everyone!"
After Yu Shuangluoluo finished speaking generously, she handed the microphone to Li Luo.
"Hello everyone, I am adc Shine from the EDG team."
Li Luo said his opening remarks very systematically.
"I believe the several waves of operations performed by Shine players today have left a very deep impression on the audience. So as a person involved, how did you deal with it calmly when faced with this... three waves in total, which can be said to be a very dangerous situation?
What about?"
Yu Shuang's question actually made Li Luo recall many past events.
Those unbearable pasts, the health bars that disappeared time and time again, the retro black and white screen...
It’s all indescribably painful.
At this moment, Yu Shuang even caught a glimpse of a "vicissitudes of life" feeling in Li Luo's eyes.
"Actually, it may have something to do with my usual practice. Now when I play ranked in the Korean server, I don't know why, but they always like to target me."
Li Luo smiled and said: "It is common to play mahjong in the bottom lane, so I have developed a good habit of always being vigilant. I would like to thank some Korean players and professional players here."
As soon as he finished speaking, bursts of laughter erupted from the audience.
In the backstage lounge, Uzi, who was sitting on the gaming chair biting his hand, touched his face helplessly.
He also often receives care from countless people in rank.
During the game, Uzi will try to be as careful as possible when pressing people, but sometimes it is inevitable that he will be caught during the laning phase.
It is easy to have problems in judging the risk of gank when you are overpowering others. From the perspective of a normal player, it makes sense, but doesn't this highlight Li Luo's abnormality?
Although the most outstanding thing about Li Luo in the game does not seem to be his laning ability, Uzi clearly knows that if this game requires Li Luo to suppress people, and gives him the tools to suppress the opponent.
For a strong hero, the suppression effect that Li Luo can display during the laning phase will definitely not be weaker than his.
This man is a terror!
At the interview table, Yu Shuang’s questions continued.
"As for the hero Xia, you haven't played it much in the past six months. Why did you choose it in this version?"
Yu Shuang asked.
As soon as these words came out, Li Luo had a strange look on his face: "There are actually two reasons for choosing Xia. On the one hand, the attributes of this hero are very comprehensive in this version, so it is suitable to be chosen. Even without matching with Luo, he can still play well.
Effect."
"What about another aspect?"
"this……"
Yu Shuang's questioning made Li Luo pause, then he smiled and said, "I am the owner of Xia's champion skin."
As soon as these words came out, both Yu Shuang and some of the audience were shocked.
They suddenly came back to their senses, as if...yes.
It's just that there are too many heroes that can represent Li Luo and perform wonderfully on the field. The proportion of Xia's appearances in Li Luo's hands is not obvious, so that some players even temporarily forgot this key link.
Li Luo, who managed Xia, used the most correct judgment and the most correct operation to reverse the situation in the three waves of crises. He is the owner of Xia's champion skin.
To say that he is the best Kasumi in the world is not an exaggeration, right?!
As for the last question, when asked about his feelings and goals for participating in this intercontinental competition, Li Luo also smiled naturally.
"This goal is my personal goal, and it is also the common goal of other participating teams."
"Our goal is to prove to everyone that the strongest team is in the LPL, and the strongest division is also the LPL!"
Li Luo's modest voice spread throughout the venue.
There was no cry from the middle school boy, but the calm tone was full of firmness.
Although many viewers felt that Li Luo's words were a bit hasty, after all, among the four LPL teams, except for EDG, the other three teams did not seem to be completely reassuring.
RNG just lost to FW.
IG won the game cleanly and neatly, but the win was in a roundabout way, and they haven't beaten the Korean team yet.
For some reason, among the four LCK teams, many viewers subconsciously think that KT is the strongest.
After all, KT has the combination of deft and mata. When these former Samsung twins come together, people will always be reminded of the dominance of the former Samsung blue and white team.
But just when the audience was worried about it, the KZ team came up and showed the audience a big job.
Back at the backstage lounge, the EDG crowd ate the KFC ordered by Li Zhe and watched the game comfortably.
To be precise, it was watching KZ being abused.
Li Luo vaguely remembered that in the intercontinental competition before his rebirth, there was such a strong team that had an extremely embarrassing record.
Including the group stage, knockout rounds and finals, this team has experienced a total of four games.
But they only won one game in the end.
In the group stage, they were 0/2 and tied with the other three teams in the LMS division except Flash Wolves for the bottom four.
That team is KZ.
Now, the scene reappears.
When KZ competed with the FW team, Korean netizens who were a little depressed because AFS lost chose to stand up and cheer for KZ.
This pair can be considered old enemies.
KZ was abused by FW during MSI.
Now, of course, we need to regain our place.
But a scene that was unexpected but makes sense when you think about it happened again.
KZ...lost to FW.
After more than a month, they were once again held down by FW and whipped severely.
So far, the LCK division has suffered two defeats on the first day of the group stage.
The former glory of the division no longer exists.
The curses all over the forum seem to indicate that the dark era of LCK is completely coming.
This is only the first day of the group stage.
As the games on the second and third days were released one after another, the combat effectiveness of LCK netizens took a sharp turn.
Their fingers hurt from scolding.
In contrast, although the LPL teams have wins and losses, at least they have won many more games than the LCK team.
And in the competition between teams, the four teams of the LPL faced the four teams of the LCK and the final record was 3 to 1!
After KZ lost to Flash Wolves, they were taught a lesson by RNG in the second round. The two consecutive losses directly confused them.
As expected, EDG defeated the second seed in the LMS division. They defeated both games easily and won cleanly.
With the lessons learned from RNG on the first day of the group stage, other LPL teams were more cautious when playing against teams in the LMS division and did not suffer any losses.
Therefore, when the group stage came to an end, the LPL division won a total of six out of eight games and ranked first in the group.
The LCK only won four games and ranked second in the group.
The LMS division was a bit miserable. Except for the Flash Wolves who won both games in the group stage, the other three teams all ended with nothing.
For LCK, such a record is obviously not satisfactory to them.
Several teams even had a fight together.
The chain reaction brought about by the huge pressure caused individual players in the LCK to explode.
"You are very good at beating your own people, but not others. Can you do something useful, especially the duo in the bottom lane? It's just that MSI can't beat the combination of Shine and Meiko. How come it can't even beat Uzi and Ming?
Woolen cloth?"
Mata has a hot temper and will say whatever he wants. As someone who has played with Uzi, he certainly knows that Uzi has strong laning ability. Subconsciously, he also knows that Pray cannot be blamed for this.
After all, Pray has endured too much for their other ADCs in the LCK. This guy seems to have played at the top of his game while away from home.
But now I am getting angry and I have to find a way to get out.
"Don't say that to him. You can't blame him. After all, those who are facing him are MVPs."
The wolf next to him spoke subconsciously.
Originally, Pray was a little relieved that someone finally spoke for him.
But after he thought about it carefully... he felt like there was something wrong with this sentence.
"You should all stop saying a few words. The audience won't remember the group stage."
Kkoma opened the door and spoke at the right time.
I have to say that Coach Kkoma is still very dignified in the eyes of the players in the LCK division.
As soon as he said this, all the players fell silent.
"Yes, just like MSI in S6, so what if RNG double-kills us in the group stage? BO5 represents everything."
Bang also clenched his fists slightly: "We have room for maneuver in this BO5. As long as we accurately grasp the teams that are restrained by our style, it is not difficult to win."
With the encouragement of the coach and some relatively calm players, the mentality of the players in the LCK teams finally stabilized.
The day after the group stage ends is the knockout round.
They will play the LMS first, and only after winning the LMS will they be eligible to enter the finals.
I have to say that the LCK seems to have undergone some transformation after adjustments.
In the three games against the LMS, the LMS tried to use their brains and tried to use weak teams to deceive the LCK into enlarging their moves.
They did succeed in cheating, and Flash Wolves met SKT after coming out.
It's a pity that Flash Wolves, who defeated strong opponents in the group stage, failed to defeat SKT.
3 to 0.
The South Korean team easily advanced to the finals.
This is also a relatively normal thing in the eyes of the audience.
After all, when the intercontinental competition appeared, the audience in each major competition area almost acquiesced. There is a high probability that the final showdown will be the LPL and LCK!
