Chapter 286 IQ crushing, the famous scene reappears!
Chapter 286 IQ crushing, famous scene reappears!
The day of the final.
The venue was crowded with people.
In fact, judging from the essence of the intercontinental competition system, this last so-called BO5 is almost exactly the same as the BO1 in the previous group stage.
But the "group nature" of BO5 has made countless viewers look forward to it.
After all, when it comes to foreign wars, even if they are enemies on weekdays, they will unite when the enemy is in front of them.
Only LPL fans can feel the charm of this intercontinental competition.
The Korean team arrived at the venue about an hour and a half early.
The four teams were chattering in the lounge, discussing today's tactics.
It’s just that this tactic is not part of the game.
But...how to arrange the order of the playing teams.
At this juncture, the tactical ideas of each team have been basically smoothed out, and even if they are not straightened out, it is too late to improvise.
Kkoma is highly respected in the Korean coaching field. As the coach who is regarded as the backbone this time, no matter how confident he is, he clearly knows that in terms of overall strength, LCK... is really inferior to LPL.
Other coaches have more or less complained privately, feeling that there is something wrong with Riot's competition system.
In their opinion, most LCK teams are good at playing BO5, which is a real BO5, not like the intercontinental competition, which is BO5 on the surface but actually BO1.
After all, there are too many variables in BO1.
But Kkoma thinks from the bottom of his heart that everything is an excuse if he loses.
If you don't want to make excuses to cover up your embarrassment after losing, then don't lose.
Before the referee came to ask for the submission of the playing list, Kkoma gathered all the players and coaches together and held a serious meeting.
Under the gaze of everyone, Kkoma said calmly: "Kids, you may not be familiar with this competition system, but after all, this is still a BO5. We have an advantage in BO5 that the LPL division does not have."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's ears pricked up.
"That's our mentality."
Kkoma said: "From the perspective of LPL, the outcome of the first game of BO5 is very critical. If they lose, it will have a great impact on their morale. Therefore, according to the unanimous judgment of several coaches and I, LPL
The division will most likely send their most stable team, and I believe you all know who their most stable team is."
The players present all nodded subconsciously.
So far this season, the LPL division... and even the entire world is the well-deserved hegemon.
EDG.
And Kkoma’s analysis is indeed very reasonable.
"If the team they play is EDG, no matter who we put on the field, there is no guarantee of victory, so I decided that in the first game, SKT will play."
Kkoma's words made everyone in SKT change their faces slightly.
But then Kkoma changed the subject again. He looked at the members of his team and said seriously: "Children, don't have any psychological burden, just show your full strength. In their Chinese words,
, when you win, you gain blood, but when you lose, you don’t lose anything.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in SKT, who had been a little stressed, felt relieved. Only Faker frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The coaches of other teams made eye contact and nodded secretly.
They all admire Kkoma's skill in their hearts.
In fact, when we came to the stage of the intercontinental competition, the coaches of several teams did not communicate much at the beginning of the group stage.
They all have selfish motives and don't want to be exposed too much in the subsequent LCK competition that may be hostile.
They can't do things like sacrificing the small self to achieve the greater self.
The defeat in the group stage made them realize that if they continued to think this way, they might have to go home collectively.
Moreover, Kkoma took the initiative to invite them for the sake of the entire LCK. With such smooth flow, they accepted it.
Although they had heard about Kkoma's ability for a long time, several other coaches were still surprised when Kkoma finished speaking.
Let your team go to a position where they are likely to become cannon fodder.
SKT is indeed in bad shape this year, and this is obvious to everyone.
Even if they lose to EDG, it doesn't matter much.
But if you win in an upset...
Even if the LCK loses the final game, SKT's domestic prestige will probably soar again.
It is true that if you win, you will gain blood, and if you lose, you will not lose.
But even if they want to do this kind of thing, they can't do it.
If you really do it and lose, I'm afraid you'll be scolded to death.
"I believe we will win."
faker said with a serious face.
"Very good. I just like your confidence. Xianghe, I don't need to worry about your mentality. If we face Rucan, he should be the one panicking. Of course, that's assuming we can really meet EDG."
On the surface, Kkoma is gentle, elegant and calm.
But in fact, Kkoma has no confidence in his heart.
Everything he said was an assumption, and this assumption was very beautiful.
However, as a mature coach, Kkoma knows very well that not everything can go as planned.
What if the LPL sends a team other than EDG? Although in his opinion, this probability is not high.
Kkoma asks himself that he still knows the LPL very well.
It's just that he overlooked one thing, LPL... is also gradually growing.
At the same time, in the backstage lounge of LPL.
"Then that's what we've decided."
Abramovich looked at the coaches of the other three teams, and everyone looked at each other and smiled: "In the first round, winning or losing is not important, but we want to show our momentum."
"This is what we are best at."
Next to him, Prince Ning squeezed his hand.
"Be careful, don't overturn the car."
Li Luo reminded him.
In Li Luo's impression, in order to win the first game in the intercontinental tournament before the rebirth, LCK chose to let KT, the best performer in their group stage, compete in the first game.
IG lost to KT in that game.
That's why Li Luo reminded him loudly.
However, at this moment, the referee announced the participating teams of both sides.
Li Luo was a little shocked when he found out that his opponent was SKT in the first game.
This LCK... is getting smart and starting to play tricks?
But the problem is, is this cleverness a bit crooked?
"I'll put my words here, if anything goes wrong against SKT, I'll stand on my head and eat two tons of shit, that's what I said!"
Prince Ning chuckled and said while rubbing his hands.
"You cheated on me by eating and drinking, so I have to let you eat once."
Ah Shui next to him said with a smirk after hearing what Prince Ning said.
"Okay, Yu Wenbo, you can give it a try. If you cause trouble, I promise to beat the shit out of you."
"Then will you eat?"
"Fuck you, uncle, you are so disgusting!"
The two started a chase in the lounge.
After a while.
The first round of the final kicked off.
IG drew lots and took the initiative to choose the blue side after getting the priority right to choose the side.
In the backstage lounge, Li Luo and other players were sitting together and watching the BP.
As the BP progressed, the expressions of the players gradually became weird.
"SKT...are you sure you want to play like this with IG?"
Uzi smacked his lips, a little shocked.
I saw that SKT chose a... a bit strange lineup.
Although everyone likes to play the AD core in this version, if you want to play the AP hero in the AD position, it is also very sophisticated.
Not only do you have to judge the hero selection of both sides, but the most basic thing... you have to consider the player styles of each other's teams, right?
On SKT's side, the top laner chose a captain, the jungler took a scorpion, and the faker in the middle chose a spiritual crocodile in the counter position on the fifth floor to supplement his own AD damage and give the bottom lane banger a magic core.
vampire.
The combination of vampires and bull heads is actually not bad. At least in theory, there is no problem in getting through the early stages of development.
SKT's lineup is also relatively comprehensive. Scorpion and Crocodile lead the early and mid-term rhythm, helping Vampire and Captain get through the difficult development period.
When the crocodile gradually withdraws from the stage in the later stage, the vampire captain can also take over the game.
There's no problem in theory.
Compare IG’s lineup...
IG's top laner The shy randomly chose Sword Girl.
King Ning chose Camille in the jungle and formed a combo with Rookie's Galio in the middle.
This version of Galio will be relatively fragile in the early stage. According to Faker's idea, use the crocodile to fight and limit Galio's roaming. This seems to be no problem.
However, if we look at IG's bottom lane duo, we can see the problem.
The lineup selected by IG for the bottom duo is Delevingne paired with Morgana.
Li Luo couldn't help but smile when he saw the lineup combination of both sides.
There are quite a few elements to this one.
And judging from the lineup, IG has a lot of room for maneuver.
Even the early scripts are somewhat similar.
"IG's level one is a bit violent. They directly choose five people to invade as a group, but SKT also has something to say! All five of them are squatting in the grass. The shy is a bit dangerous. If he goes first into the grass, he is likely to be Qed by the Bullhead.
It falls instantly when you get up, but...ah? Did Morgana learn this shield at level one?!!"
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan was confused.
What the hell.
I was struck by lightning just as I was explaining today?
The five members of SKT have crocodiles with them, so there is no problem in gathering together to ambush them.
Their idea is also very simple, that is, one person will drop one in a second.
But Morgana didn't learn to keep people at level 1. Instead, she learned a magic immunity shield. This was something they didn't expect.
This magic shield freed Jian Ji from the control of Niu Tou. After Niu Tou Q was in the air, Jian Ji made a backhand Q to deal damage while pulling away a little. At the same time, King Ning's Camille flew in and kicked in.
Rookie's Galio W flashes and taunts five people!
The visual effects of this scene were so shocking that KKoma, who had just finished BP and arrived backstage, almost dropped her jaw in shock.
As Shui's Draven ax flew up and down, first blood was obtained!
Draven gets first blood at the beginning!
Bang, a mute eats Coptis chinensis and cannot tell of the pain.
He chose the relatively weak vampire core in order to avoid a strong matchup.
It's good now, it was originally a hell difficulty start, but now it's an abyss mode.
And this Ning Wang was like being on steroids. Knowing that faker didn't dodge, he directly came to E-dodge E to catch the crocodile at level 2. With Galio's control connection, the crocodile died again.
faker is already 0/2 at the start.
He was the one who died on Level 1.
He learned a W at level 1 and fainted Sword Girl.
But because it is not Red Fury, the time of being stunned is relatively short, and then his "Devil Effect" also follows.
Don't ask, asking will kill the faker.
This is the first goal that many teams around the world take care of when they meet SKT.
Objectively speaking, this "star" effect also provides some output space for team-based adc player bang to a certain extent.
Everyone in the group went to greet Faker, so naturally there were fewer people greeting him.
faker fell down once at level 1 and again at level 2.
The middle road is already a bit broken.
It happened that Emperor T who was on the road at this time heard Xi Bal'er's curses.
Faker glanced towards the road while counting down the seconds.
Good guy, this King T is already outside the experience zone.
"He wouldn't even let me blow up the barrel!"
Emperor T felt wronged.
Three minutes into Xibal's laning, he no longer knew who he was, and he even began to doubt whether he was still a professional player.
He met The shy once in rank before.
Then he cooperated with the jungler to defeat The Shy, so I didn't think The Shy was very strong. I felt like he was just a dumb guy.
But this early matchup completely confused him.
However, within a moment, a battle also broke out in the bottom lane.
Jacekylove found an opportunity to take the initiative and used his sharp ax to slow down the vampire.
Sapphire on the other side pressed forward and flashed, and a predicted Q skill predicted the landing point of the vampire's flash.
Niutou hurriedly turned around and tried to hit Draven with W, but when W hit Draven, he only hit the black shield.
With no way to restrain Draven, he watched helplessly as Draven flew his double ax to kill the vampire first, and then turned around to kill him.
Five minutes into the game!
The head ratio of both sides is 4/0!
The scene was already cheering.
But the three people in the commentary box were a little confused.
Even if SKT is far inferior to its peak years...
You won't be killed like a pig, right?
A world champion last year is still a world champion without a core.
A world runner-up last year…
Although there are fewer people.
Now that they meet again in the intercontinental competition, IG has shown dominance like a dimensionality reduction strike!
"My dear, Wang Liuyi took the wrong medicine today. Is it so strong?"
Shi Senming, who was sitting between Uzi and Li Luo, smacked his lips and said.
Meiko, who had her legs crossed on the other side of Li Luo, also nodded thoughtfully: "It's a bit fierce and has my style."
Even Li Luo felt a little emotional.
Due to his personality, Baolan usually plays very steadily... Of course, judging by the audience's standards, he is very timid.
But he was so brave today.
Judging from the current situation, it is even better than the early advantage IG gained against SKT in last year's World Championship finals.
This is simply... Before the jungler has done anything, the upper, middle and lower lines have already blossomed.
Faker, who chose a crocodile and wanted to push Galio's lane, was pushed by Galio and was pinned under the tower and unable to move.
Play with fur.
Game time is 6 and a half minutes.
Rookie's Galio ultimate move flew down the lane, and then helped Draven get two kills.
Xiao Hei from Shi Lezhi rushed over and gave away an extra one. It was really a buy two get one free offer.
"What is SKT playing..."
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan was dumbfounded.
In the past, when they were in the LCK, SKT had some early disadvantages.
But their opponent's attack at that time was not very violent.
Therefore, the most SKT can do is release resources when the opponent takes them, release them when the tower is demolished, and finally release the home when they demolish the home.
Could it be... that IG's attack was too fierce?
Guan Zeyuan thought in his mind.
In fact, he was right.
SKT has never faced such a fiercely offensive team in more than half a year.
There is no rules.
It depends purely on fighting and personal strength.
This style of play is very prone to problems. If you are caught by a strong team during a wave of interruptions, you may very well be killed alive.
But they... are considered a strong team!
SKT's defense towers are dropping like crazy, and IG doesn't even take the dragon, so they kill people like crazy, take towers, and plunder the jungle.
Looking at the game time in the upper right corner, everyone in SKT and even Kkoma in the backstage lounge panicked.
As inferior horses, they can lose.
But you can’t lose too badly!
Less than fifteen minutes!
IG is on the high ground.
And bring the Canyon Pioneer with you!
"Damn it, they won't replicate the World Championship and have a duel within 16 minutes, right?"
Uzi said a little confused.
Li Luo glanced at Uzi and then looked at the big screen.
At this point in time...
That's a bit sensitive.
It should be noted that when he was at IG, IG had already played the strange number 1557.
But from a rhythm perspective...
"Push the base, push the base!"
King Ning kicked the vampire like a wolf and a tiger, knocked him unconscious and then used his ultimate move directly.
Rookie followed up with Galio's ultimate move. Although the vampire handed over the Blood Pool Escape, his head was taken away by Draven's ax as soon as he showed up!
"It's a wave!"
Jackeylove is also howling.
He always looks at the time on the upper right.
This time... there is a saying!
At this time, SKT was helpless and could only watch the base crystal being destroyed by these wolf-like and tiger-like men!
Finally, the Summoner Crystal is frozen!
"Grass!"
Prince Ning smashed the table and said depressedly: "It was just a little bit close! It was just a little bit close!"
I can only see the ending game time above, which is 15 minutes and 58 seconds.
