The drums of war are beating and the horns are blowing.
When the game in the finals reached 2-0, it was obvious who was better in this BO5.
However, for the audience at the scene, they undoubtedly hope that IG can regain their place in the next game. After all, they spent a lot of money to buy tickets for the S game finals. It’s just that they didn’t see their favorite home team, at least
You just have to have fun.
Although...the two teams' adrenaline was constantly soaring during the confrontation, but people's desires are endless.
Once you see something wonderful, you want to see something even more wonderful.
For a time, a large number of IG banners were raised high, and of course more of them were lights belonging to local Korean players.
"It's a bit realistic, Duoduo, you have to improve your status in the hearts of Korean netizens."
Meiko said with a smile.
"It will happen after winning the championship this time."
The junior student said with a smile. Then he seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Jin Gong: "Brother Han Quan, won't you be disappointed? You have the fewest fans here."
"There is nothing to be disappointed about. My performance was indeed not good. I was already blown up in the last round."
There was a helpless smile on the corner of Jin Gong's mouth. If you observe carefully, you can vaguely detect a little sadness in his eyes.
"It's just the backhand counter. Although Xiao Jiang is very strong, but brother Gongzi, you have to believe that you are the number one top laner in the world. In this game, the backhand counter position is left to you. You have a chance to prove yourself."
Li Luo smiled and said.
"Okay, okay, then I'll be more serious about this."
Jin Gong used this joking way to try to relieve the pressure in his heart.
He is the oldest in the team.
Although Jin Gong often screams at the base, in fact, Jin Gong has always been under great pressure. He doesn't know why EDG chose him as the top laner of this newly formed team, because Jin Gong
Subconsciously, I think I am not good enough.
Although Li Luo said this, even if EDG did not give him a back-up counter position and let him choose a hero who is easy to be countered by Theshy first, Jin Gong would not complain at all.
He is such a person who is willing to dedicate himself to the extreme for the team.
The referee's prompt came quickly.
The players' expressions instantly became serious when they heard this.
At the same time, in the commentary box.
"It's match point... To be honest, if EDG faced another team, I would definitely think that this team is gone, but we all know IG well. Their biggest shortcoming is their instability.
But at the same time, their greatest advantage is also this."
Miller slowly said: "Other teams may completely lose their fighting spirit due to two consecutive losses, but IG will not, so... let's look forward to their performance in the third game!"
"That's right, the battle between the two sides has already begun! IG chose the blue side! They have already won the third blue side in this finals!"
As the doll's pitch rose, the bp between the two parties officially began.
Guan Zeyuan also said leisurely from the side: "If the final winning team is the EDG team, then I can only say... Brother Luo will become the second player in history to win the world championship in different teams."
Speaking of this, Guan Zeyuan changed the topic: "But if IG wins the championship, then one player will be exaggerated. He will become an unprecedented three consecutive champions!"
Wawa and Miller were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then quickly remembered who this person was.
The mascot of the IG team, duke.
S6 world champion top laner.
S7 world champion top laner, although he didn't play many games, he still played.
The same is true for this year's S8. IG still adopted a rotation system in this world championship. Duke just didn't play in the finals.
If IG can win the championship, he will indeed become the first player in history to win three consecutive S championships, and he will win the championship with two different teams.
Needless to say, this is an exaggeration.
"To be honest, I think if a professional player can win the world championship in different teams... the difficulty will be higher. Strange teammates, strange environment, but still maintain dominance... Such strength is really impressive.
People envy you.”
The doll said somewhat sadly.
"That's right...the top three bans on the IG team are still Ezreal, Ryze and Xayah. They released Varus."
Miller nodded and said: "The three bans on the EDG team are respectively given to Camille, Dao Mei and...Eh? King Ning's Zach has been banned!"
Miller remembers clearly that the last hero EDG killed with one hand was Akali.
The shy's outstanding performance in the first game left a deep impression on countless viewers and the EDG team, and also made them fearful.
But this second one... was not banned.
"In that case...should IG grab Akali first? Oh! They picked Varus directly on the first floor! Then Akali is going to be given to EDG!"
Guan Zeyuan's voice rose.
"You're right, Scout is also an excellent Akali user."
Wawa also said with deep approval.
However, while the commentators were discussing, Li Luo and Abu were also constantly communicating at the EDG team battle table.
"It is more reasonable for them to grab Varus first, but it may also be a smoke bomb. We cannot let them lead us by the nose."
Li Luo said: "Now there are no heroes that can match Tahm Kench. If we take Akali and Tahm Kench, it won't match our tactical system and will look weird. But if we only take Akali and Tahm Kench, it will look weird."
If we don’t take Tamu, IG will definitely take it.”
"Well, that's right, then let's..."
Abu nodded thoughtfully, then hesitated.
Although Abramovich is experienced in BP and is the oldest coach in the LPL, he often chooses to listen to Li Luo.
"Take Kai'Sa, Kai'Sa and Luo."
Li Luo pondered for a moment and said: "First of all, make sure that we start the team and the later stage, and we will take care of the laning issues in the bottom lane."
"OK, no problem."
The first and second floors of EDG were quickly finalized.
As for the IG team, Mafa frowned at first, but soon relaxed.
Akali is indeed a good hero, but IG doesn’t plan to take it.
The losses in two games allowed the IG team to see through the true nature of EDG.
They realized that it would be quite difficult for the EDG team to directly attack with assassins.
The shy is certainly very strong, but any strategy that relies too much on a certain player's personal ability is extremely unhealthy.
Akali's outstanding performance in the first game was completely the explosive operation of The shy in the two waves of team battles.
But the question is, can he explode every time?
Mafa knows clearly that this is impossible.
Now they have no escape route. Taking such a big risk is contrary to his philosophy. If the players are actually selected, they will also have greater psychological pressure.
What makes Mafa a little regretful is that EDG did not fall into their trap.
But the second trick... was still taken.
Forcing EDG to take Tamu, if EDG doesn't take Tamu, the most likely choice is to play Rakan, who plays Meiko well.
This is the conclusion reached by the IG team through research before the start of BP.
And no matter which one of these two heroes, IG has a way to deal with it.
When a gem appeared on the second floor of IG, Abu felt extremely happy.
Gem is a very unpopular hero.
But Baolan is very good at it.
It seems to be the reason why the name has the word "宝" in it. Sapphire's gems have been taught by EDG both in training matches and in professional competitions.
This kind of bulky-looking hero is perfect for Baolan. When you get this hero, Baolan's weaknesses will be infinitely compressed, and the fault tolerance rate will be very high.
The selection of gems and Varus means that IG will most likely make the remaining BP decisions in a style similar to "Tank Fortress".
The most restrained thing about this kind of battle formation is the rushing hero.
If EDG had just chosen Akali, it would have been a huge headache.
However... Gemstone Daluo is a very good combination.
It is also a classic confrontation combination in the S7 World Finals.
Paired with Varus' gems, you will have an advantage against Kai'Sa and Rakan.
“You can get this one for me Zoe.”
The junior high school student said with a serious face.
The best way to break this kind of iron barrel battle formation is to poke.
EDG plays relatively little poke. This is a shortcoming that was analyzed in the middle of this season.
There are also teams that take advantage of this to make a fuss.
It's a pity that EDG has Zoe Lee. They only have Zoe, their younger brother, and they have half of an excellent poke system.
Kai'Sa, working with Li Luo, was EDG's signature tactic that was very popular at the beginning of this season's summer split.
Judging from the current BP situation, their tactics can be revived.
"It's not that easy. They should know that we have this system and it's impossible to release it without any reason."
Li Luo shook his head slightly and said.
Just as he finished speaking, the third floor of the ig team locked a hero.
Twilight Star Spirit, Zoe!
Rookie's Zoe is also a signature character. You must know that Rookie and Scout are among the three major Zoes of the LPL!
"Sure enough, I am young."
Scout was a little helpless: "This is a bit difficult. What's happening on the third floor?"
There are two options before EDG now.
One is to go out into the jungle.
One is to play the middle order.
The advantage of playing the mid laner is that it can guarantee the alignment in the middle.
But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, all the heroes that Xiaotian can lead will be banned in the second round.
After all, neither side has played a jungle position so far, so you can imagine how brutal the BP in the second round will be.
But if the jungler is used, the mid lane position will be...
"Since their mid laner has already been announced, we are not in a hurry. I have an idea and we have practiced it before."
Li Luo's thinking is very flexible.
He knows that some heroes will not be burdened by the version.
In some extreme situations, this kind of hero is a unique move.
When the junior student heard Li Luo say the hero's name, he immediately fell into deep thought.
This hero, he can.
And he is a system hero.
Feasibility... is very high.
Abu also glanced at Li Luo with a sigh on his face.
If Li Luo hadn't mentioned this hero, Abu wouldn't have thought of it for a while.
For the EDG team, the blind monk is locked on the third floor.
"I knew they would focus on the jungle's rhythm. Then I could play Kayn."
Prince Ning grinned and looked very happy.
Although King Ning and Mafa strongly requested to play Kayn during the intermission.
But he is a person who takes the overall situation into consideration.
Even if Mafa chooses a hero that he doesn't like very much, as long as the lineup is flawless, King Ning will still put the overall situation first.
But now King Ning is relieved.
EDG chooses to select a jungler who can lead the rhythm first, so they must be prepared to be targeted in the middle.
There is a high probability that Rookie can use Zoe to get the right to the line.
And EDG will definitely do some targeting on the jungle position in the second round of bans.
Otherwise, if their midfielder and jungler are too strong, EDG will not be able to bear it.
As expected, EDG killed Olaf and Xin Zhao in the second round.
The IG team, on the other hand, took down the junior Syndra and the Trickery Fairy very seriously.
Once these two powerful heroes are banned, Rookie will have almost no natural enemies in the middle.
"The BP game between the two sides is very exciting. On the EDG team... I feel that there is no particularly suitable mid laner. How about choosing Lisandro to push and roam? But I feel that Lisandro is not easy to play against Zoe.
ah."
Guan Zeyuan looked at the BP situation in the field and analyzed it.
However, within one second after the second round of bans between the two sides ended, EDG directly completed the second lock on the fourth floor.
This hero who appeared on the fourth floor of EDG also caused an uproar on the scene!
Lady luck is smiling!
A very old but iconic line sounded.
Card Master, Drizzt!
Many Korean spectators at the scene were stunned for a moment when they saw this hero, and then subconsciously raised their arms and shouted.
Card Master is a very charismatic hero in the arena, although not very strong.
From ancient times to the present, the hero Card Master has attracted too much attention.
Landing a golden body, using big moves to steal home, perfect rhythm.
There is no doubt that cards are one of the heroes that best embody the charm of "team games".
This hero who did not appear in the last S8 World Finals has now appeared.
Still appeared in the most crucial game of the finals!
"J……"
On the IG team, all the players and even the coach were slightly stunned.
Prince Ning frowned.
The pace of Card Master is...a little too fast.
This choice exceeded his expectations.
If this is the case, if he chooses Kayn, will the rhythm of the jungle be a bit slow?
Mafa seemed to have guessed what King Ning was thinking. He pondered for two seconds and said: "Kayn can still be chosen. This way we will have a great advantage in the resource group collision in the mid-term, but you have to transform as soon as possible for this one. Level 6
Play harder before and try to accumulate as much energy as possible before the card reaches 6."
"I see."
Prince Ning nodded slightly.
He also understands that now, except for jungle heroes like Zhu Mei Jiugong who he doesn't like very much, he doesn't have many choices outside the game.
"Oh my god... EDG is so brave!"
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan was stunned and said: "Select cards in seconds! Such courage... But to be honest, in this case, EDG's top laner would be better off adding a strong team initiator or a big core hero..."
Miller licked his lips: "The fourth floor of the IG team is also unambiguous. King Ning's Kayn is out! This man with the champion skin took out his most iconic hero! IG is going to fight hard!"
"As for the fifth floor, IG still chose to add Urgot. Indeed, under the protection of the gem ultimate, this Urgot only needs to stand with teammates to produce the most effective output.
, EDG’s front row is very fragile, Urgot has more room to play than the top one!”
The more Miller talked, the more excited he became: "To be honest, I can vaguely predict what hero EDG's counter position on the fifth floor will choose. If it is really that hero... I can only say, have fun, have fun."
As Miller's voice fell, the heroes on the fifth floor of the EDG team also lit up.
"Neither fire nor the deep sea can take my life."
A low voice sounded.
Jin Gong straightened his arms, twisted his neck, and then looked solemnly at the hero who appeared in front of the screen.
He... doesn't want to have any regrets.
"Captain, it's indeed the captain! If it's locked, then the EDG team's lineup will be very comprehensive. They don't lack output at all, and they don't have to worry about the later stage. The only thing they need to worry about is the lack of front row!"
Guan Zeyuan, who was in the commentary box, sighed: "I never expected that both sides would show their own energy and passion in such a crucial game!"
"Yes, in this case, the lineups of both sides have been finalized! The blue side IG team, Urgot in the top lane, Kayn in the jungle, Zoe in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo is Varus with gems!"
"For the EDG team, the captain in the top lane, the jungler Lee Sin, the card master in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo are Kai'Sa and Rakan!"
"The players on both sides are ready, let's enter the match point game between EDG and IG!"
