Chapter 495: Is there only one person who can play in LPL?
It wasn't until the base crystal exploded that Viper came back to his senses, but he didn't say anything and just fell into deep thought.
Li Luoqiang?
Qiang, for this kind of "senior" players, even if the viper is Korean, he still has a certain amount of respect in his heart.
But as the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
As a standard post-2000 generation, Viper has already made a good reputation with Griffin at a young age, and he also believes that what he and the entire team lack is just competition experience.
It has taken a long time for them to get along, and now they are firmly at the top of the summer regular season. On the surface, they seem to have followed the other big brother teams in the LCK to experience, but in fact, in the hearts of everyone in Griffin, they are the ones who are the best.
The strongest among our four teams.
There is no way to meet the Thorn Birds in the group stage, and it also depends on fate in the knockout stage.
But if the LPL division is relatively passive in the group stage, then as the disadvantaged side, it will be easy to guess the formation psychology of the LPL division in the knockout rounds.
viper, wants to defeat Li Luo.
Even though he and Li Luo have never met on the court, as a rising star in the LCK division, Viper feels that it is necessary to rebuild the glory of the LCK and crush the glory of the LPL division.
When everyone in KZ returned to the lounge, Khan was the first to step forward.
Khan patted Rascal on the shoulder and comforted him.
Rascal was a little distracted.
His Camille is almost useless in team battles.
In total, we had two or three large-scale team battles with the Thorn Birds.
The only ones who really had a chance were the first wave of dragons, but he didn't have a big move for that wave of dragons.
When he tried to break in again after that, because the economic gap between the two sides was too large, the psychological pressure on their side to counterattack increased sharply. At that time, it was no longer possible to fight. Even if he really encountered Kai'Sa, he would be killed by Kai'Sa.
When a top laner can be quickly killed by an adc in the face but he has no way to threaten the adc in the slightest, this game can actually be selected.
deft looked depressed.
He was the one who got the most angry from this beating.
Looking at the overall situation, the Thorn Birds defeated them.
It would actually be okay if he was crushed normally.
It happened that he contributed a famous scene in this crushing game, and before he contributed the famous scene, the situation did not seem to be that disadvantageous in the eyes of the audience.
Therefore, in the eyes of the outside media, he will probably take the blame for this game.
Blue thin.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when deft accidentally looked up, he noticed that Khan seemed to be smiling. When he looked carefully, he found that Khan didn't seem to be smiling again.
"Let's talk about my feelings in general. It doesn't matter if you lose. Just sum up your experience and find a way to win. There is a high probability that we can win the intercontinental competition steadily, but I don't want to give up defeating the Thorn Birds just because the competition system is favorable.
Chance."
Kkoma looked at the KZ players and said slowly: "They are currently adjusting for more than half a year. If we can win against them once before they are fully fledged, their momentum will not continue."
Listening to Kkoma's words, everyone in the KZ team gradually recovered from their loss.
The first person to speak was KZ’s top laner Rascal.
He pondered for a moment and said: "Their top laner is very good. I have watched his video before. Judging from the game against him, first of all, he dares to play, and secondly, he plays a little better.
I’m not in a hurry, but this Thorn Bird has too many advantages in other lanes. If the other lanes are at a disadvantage, his status may change.”
It was KZ’s mid laner who spoke next: “I think their midfielder synergy is better than ours. I feel like the core is still in the midfielder.”
Jungler Cuzz spread his arms: "I'm at a disadvantage online. It's really hard for me as a jungler to do anything."
Later deft and tusin also expressed their respective opinions.
After listening to these views, Kkoma felt his blood pressure rise a little.
Although we are all young people, it is normal to feel unhappy after losing the game.
But judging from the comments of several people in KZ, even the most stable Rascal’s words contained a bit of resentment and meant to blame others.
As an extremely experienced coach, Kkoma realizes that this is not the best time to discuss these issues with the players.
Let’s wait until today’s game is over before we go back.
In contrast, the LPL backstage lounge was full of joy.
This wave of victories for the Thorn Birds has boosted morale.
Even though everyone knew that the Thorn Bird would win with a high probability, the fact that the Thorn Bird could win so easily still gave everyone considerable confidence.
"We still have a fierce battle today, little Phoenix, please."
Zhu Kai looked at everyone in FPX and said with a smile.
The FPX players were a little serious when they heard this.
Even doinb, who loves to joke, didn't say anything cruel.
But in doinb's heart, he is quite confident about this game.
As a standard roaming mid laner, doinb is more afraid of those mid laners who are strong in the lane.
If it were the faker from two years ago, then doinb admits that there is a high probability that he would not be able to beat him.
But Faker's ups and downs this year are something that a professional player can see.
At this time, Faker is more inclined to use some team heroes. Although the laning is still delicate, the suppression power has declined compared to its peak.
Although doinb is the same age as faker, he is not afraid of the current faker.
With the outcome of today's opening game determined, there is actually no suspense in the subsequent games.
It is no surprise that the joint "fleet" of the LMS and VCS divisions can hardly win a victory due to the strong strength of the teams in the LPL and LCK divisions.
The audience just regards these games as fun. Whether they are LPL or LCK audiences, they will regard the enemies of their enemies as friends.
It's just that this friend doesn't seem very reliable no matter how you look at it.
As a result, the audience focused on how long it took to win the game.
As the fast-paced king of the LPL, the Thorn Birds are naturally unmatched.
When facing the MAD team in the LMS division, the Thorn Birds played a terrifying speed of 19 minutes and 57 seconds in one game, with zero blocks at the speed of light.
Let alone a defense tower, MAD couldn't even get a layer of tower skin in front of the thorn bird.
In contrast, although SKT in the LCK division also won, the SKT team rarely has the kind of performance of crushing opponents in a single BO1 game in world competitions. They are used to preserving their own strength and are also used to winning.
Create some relatively conservative lineups to give the players more opportunities to get used to each other.
Therefore, this game was not a good one.
After the interaction between fans from both sides ended, the second day of the group stage came to an end.
FPXvsSKT.
Compared with the Thorn Birds vs. KT in the opening game, this one is undoubtedly more attractive to the domestic audience.
After all, this is a showdown full of suspense.
With the hopes of countless LPL viewers and the expectations of their brother teams, the five FPX players set out on the battlefield.
Top laner 957, jungler sofm, mid laner doinb, double lane hope with short segments.
This five-man team launched an attack on the king of the LCK Spring Split.
FPX has been known for its rather alternative tactics throughout the season.
This game is no different.
In the bp stage between the two sides, the SKT team focused on the bottom lane.
They seem to regard FPX as the Thorn Birds that once bloodbathed them.
But the FPX coach clearly knows that Hope has no advantage in the current version of the hero pool.
FPX focused its BP on the top lane. After the captain and the swordswoman were banned, as the red side, they had to take on the ban position of a cat.
As the BPs of both parties were released one after another, the expressions of the audience gradually became weird.
The lineup chosen by the SKT team is relatively reasonable.
On the top lane, Camille matched up with Galio in the middle lane. At the same time, in the jungle position, Clid got his best hero, Lee Sin, to supplement the early rhythm points.
The bottom duo got the combination of Yin Zeril and Luo.
This is a fairly common system.
But it is worth mentioning that SKT took apart the Xia Luo that the FPX team wanted to get.
FPX's first two BPs got Ryze for doinb first due to priority.
SKT's attack on the hero Rao caused the FPX team to lose the opportunity to gather Xia Luo.
But they didn't care, and finally gave Xiao Duan a group-starting heroic Titan.
It is worth mentioning that 957 on FPX's top lane chose Shen, who prefers defensive counterattacks and support.
Sofm, who was in the jungle, took out the reverse version of the poodle.
In the current version, the poodle rarely appears in the ranks, let alone the competition.
In the early days, the rhythm between the two sides was quite stable.
Facing the calm and experienced 957, Khan obviously did not take any advantage. In addition, Camille, a hero, would be restrained by Shen's W sword array in both basic attacks and Q skills.
But it is not difficult for Khan to push the line.
Clid relied on his skillful operation as a blind monk and played a perfect match with faker, and captured doinb.
Although it cost two flashes, after helping clid get first blood, clid's early rhythm will be more comfortable.
However, just when everyone thought so, sofm was guarding clid in the jungle. With smooth control of the poodle, he actually single-handedly killed clid in the jungle.
"How did he end up in this position?"
clid was shocked.
In this wave, he took advantage of the time gap to clear the jungle and went to gank the middle lane, leaving the toads in his own jungle area unbrushed.
As a result, when he came back to farm, he found sofm squatting in the triangular grass on the top road, guarding him.
Although Khan has lane rights on the top lane, due to pushing the lane forward, there is a certain distance between him and his top triangle grass.
This distance meant that he had no way to kill the lion dog before the lion dog killed the blind monk.
When he tried to outflank Faker again, Shen also came close to him. Although Faker could also support him, DoinB had already resurrected and arrived on the line, so it was possible that he would come with Faker. SKT could only suffer a dull loss this time.
Subsequently, both sides experienced rhythmic ups and downs. However, from an operational level and even personal strength, SKT's advantages gradually emerged.
When the game lasts for 12 minutes, the economic difference between the two sides is about 1,500 yuan.
This was accumulated by SKT purely through operations and a slight head advantage.
However, this accumulation was broken when the game time reached 15 minutes.
Four guarantees two, anyone can do it.
But the characteristic of FPX is that they have enough fun.
After Xia relied on her unique advantage to push the line under the defense tower, Ryze's ultimate move shined behind the SKT bottom duo.
Faker has a big move in his hand, and Kamil on the road also has TP, so SKT was not afraid of this wave at first.
If FPX dares to cross the tower, they may even have the confidence to keep all of FPX here.
clid is also rushing to the bottom lane, but the time will be a little slower. According to SKT's idea, they can delay.
But the moment Ryze's ultimate move was guided, everyone in SKT changed their expressions.
First, the small hook hit Luo first, and then the big move was directly locked on Yin Zeriel, and withstood the damage from the defense tower.
Secondly, when Ryze's ultimate move was guided, a poodle jumped out directly and jumped on Yin Zairiel's body, and there was a purple light shield shining on the poodle's head!
The audience from the God's perspective can see it clearly. When Ryze activates R to guide his ultimate move, Poodle also activates R at the same time, and Shen's ultimate move is also locked on Poodle.
When the poodle's ultimate move is activated, whether he is brought over by Ryze or brought over by himself, he can continue to use his ultimate move to complete the jump the moment he lands.
FPX took advantage of this feature to complete a wave of five-for-two at the speed of light!
The support speed of Faker's Galio and Khan's Camille is not bad at all.
Normally, it would be perfectly time for the two of them to use a big move and a TP.
But the pace of FPX's first wave was so fast that when Bang wanted to delay time, the poodle's burst had already fallen on him. Even if Bang flashed, Hope was followed up with a flash to output.
Walk.
Shen who landed on the ground also taunted Rakan who was knocked up by the Titan, and cooperated with Ryze's control burst to knock Rakan out instantly.
Galio had just landed at this time.
It did blow up a few people.
But the Titan that was resisting the tower was at the edge. Faker wanted to restrain him, but was evaded by the Titan.
Seeing this, Khan decisively chose to cancel the tp and continue pushing the tower.
FPX used a wave of five packs and two to demolish the bottom tower and also took down the dragon!
The early rhythm is infinitely excellent.
This also made the domestic audience cheer.
After all, FPX is not the best team in the LPL division in terms of results, but they can take advantage of the powerful SKT!
However, the good times did not last long.
Although FPX got the first health tower in this wave, the top tower was also removed by Camille.
FPX's advantage lasted until 27 minutes.
A wave of team battles by SKT gave Bang the opportunity to harvest. Bang got three kills and SKT won the Baron.
And after Camille, who also gained a double kill in this wave of team battles, went home and replenished the third piece of equipment, Shen was no longer able to resist in the single-band position.
In this game, FPX struggled to hold on until 39 minutes, and finally lost to faker's W flash that was hiding in the shadows.
SKT made a comeback and won FPX!
It's said to be a comeback, but it doesn't really count.
After all, even when FPX had a small climax with five packs and two in the bottom lane, the economic gap was barely the same as the SKT team, and the maximum lead since then was not more than 2,000 yuan.
At the end of the game, everyone in SKT celebrated with high-fives.
In contrast, several members of the FPX team seemed a little disappointed.
Just like KZ lost to the Thorn Birds in the first game.
E-sports is so cruel.
However, what is even more cruel for the LPL is that so far, the LPL and LCK divisions have met three times, and the LPL has only won one victory.
Could it be that...the Thorn Birds are the only one who can beat this intercontinental competition?
