Just when the LCK division submitted the second T1 to the referee, the coaches of the four teams in the LPL division quickly made a decision after some discussions.
"Let's go."
As soon as War Horse said this, everyone in FPX raised their heads in astonishment.
The coaches are discussing, and the players are actually discussing with each other the order of the team's playing.
The Thorn Birds got off to a good start in the LPL division. According to common sense, the LPL should be playing a relatively safe team in the second game.
Among the three remaining teams in the LPL, FPX is actually the most unstable.
In contrast, although the TOP team is all young players, they have never made any mistakes in abusing vegetables, and they can occasionally win against strong teams. Therefore, the TOP team is more stable than FPX.
Of course, the most stable among the three teams is undoubtedly JD.com.
The reason why the players think that JD.com should go to the second round is because the JD.com team has the backbone of coach Hongmi. As long as there are no problems with their performance, there is still at least a 50% certainty that they can beat the opponents sent by the LCK.
of.
The group stage battle made it difficult for the players of the three LPL teams to predict the LCK division's formation in the finals. After all, all three teams lost the game.
So now everyone has a feeling of opening a blind box. Since we don’t know who the opponent is, it is naturally more reasonable for JD.com to play. Even if there is a certain chance of winning, even if we lose, JD.com will definitely not lose too badly.
At least it won't shake the morale of the military.
Unexpectedly, the coaches actually chose to let FPX play.
At this time, the war horse's eyes flickered slightly, and Li Luo also participated in the discussion among the coaches.
It was Li Luo who proposed to let FPX play.
And just a few days ago, Li Luo gave War Horse a small suggestion.
This proposal shocked War Horse greatly, and also made War Horse change his BP strategy and ideas for this intercontinental competition.
It also provides some confidence for the war horse.
"Your recent training status is indeed good, come on, brothers."
In the top team, 369 said happily.
"no problem."
After a brief moment of confusion, everyone in FPX immediately responded.
Everyone in FPX who has submitted their list and is preparing to play also knows who their opponent is in this final.
SKT.
This is the team that beat them in the group stage.
Enemies are extremely jealous when they see each other.
At that time, FPX could only be said to be a regretful defeat. If the lineup had not really weakened in the later stages, they might not have been able to win against SKT.
This has always been a hurdle in the hearts of the players.
Now, the opportunity was once again placed in front of them, making the five people present, including the contestant sofm, all excited.
Sofm was holding his breath before playing this game.
The source of this anger is not because of losing this game.
But after they tortured the VCS Vietnam Division team in the knockout round, SofM was ridiculed by his compatriots.
"Li Guangwei, can you beat the stick?"
A simple sentence, coupled with a faint sneer, directly made Sofm's face turn down.
Is it true that he can't beat the stick?
If you think about it carefully, since joining the LPL until now, he has never defeated a team in the LCK division.
I feel very angry for no reason.
When the contestants from both sides took the stage, the audience had already adjusted their emotions.
After all, the LCK’s surname is Li.
The SKT team is the unprecedented triple crown champion in the LCK region and the world. Even if their performance last year was low, they are still the belief in the hearts of countless Korean players after they are expected to return to the top this year.
The applause that greeted the SKT team was more than a little warmer than that of the Griffin team that played before!
"It's so scary. I'm so scared."
doinb stood on the stage, the corners of his mouth clearly did not move, but the sound was already transmitted from under his lips.
"It's very scary. I really want them to shut up."
Hope said from the side, his tone was indifferent and emotionless.
Hope today bears a heavy burden.
Before the game, Li Luoyou came to him and said a word to him.
This time, he might prove himself.
It is also possible that there will be no recovery.
How to choose is up to him.
And Hope, who had already communicated tactics with War Horse, naturally knew why Li Luo said this to him.
The players from both sides sat on the duel seats.
The coaches on both sides stood behind the fighting table, ready to fight.
In front of the commentary table.
"It can be seen that Coach Zhanma is very serious. This game is indeed crucial to the LPL."
Miller paused after saying this, and then realized that he seemed to have said nonsense, and smiled bitterly: "It's true, which game in the finals is not important to us in the LPL, what does Mr. pdd think of this game?
?”
pdd said hesitantly when he heard this: "To be honest, I think War Horse's BP is not easy to do. We all watched the game in the group stage. Logically speaking, the FPX team was able to gain a huge advantage in the early stage in that game.
The extent depends on the fast pace of the lineup in the early stages."
"But we all know that the more a lineup relies on rhythm in the early stage, the weaker its teamfighting ability will be in the middle and late stages."
"It's not that the players of FPX had problems with their performance or made big mistakes in the later period, it's actually that the fault tolerance rate of the lineup was too low."
Speaking of this, pdd paused slightly: "We must admit that in terms of the players of the two teams and the overall strength of the team, SKT may be around 64 or even 73 compared to FPX... After all, FPX is a new player after this year's major overhaul.
There is a gap between their running-in and adjustment and the SKT team’s mid-lower iron triangle that has never changed.”
"So I hope they don't put too much pressure on themselves, just play as hard as they can, show our LPL blood and work hard, that's enough!"
pdd said it very tactfully.
But the audience knows what pdd means.
It is not difficult for some astute viewers to realize that pdd's words are superficially saying that FPX is weaker than SKT, and seem to be disparaging FPX.
But if you think about it carefully, on the one hand, what pdd said is indeed the truth, and on the other hand, isn't pdd giving the domestic fans who are watching the game an early vaccination?
Once FPX really loses, the advance provided by pdd's words means that the pressure from the trolls on FPX players will be slightly reduced.
Even if it is only a little lighter, the purpose of pdd has been achieved.
Wawa felt that the atmosphere was a bit heavy. When he was thinking about how to liven up the atmosphere, the beginning of bp made his eyes light up.
"Okay, both sides have started BP. SKT chose the blue side! They still understand it very well. They know the advantages of the blue side's BP. If there is blue, they must choose blue..."
As the battle between the two sides progressed in an orderly manner, the expressions of the three people in the commentary box became more solemn.
A war horse has no head iron.
In the BP stage, he chose to kill the clid Jinchūriki hero, Blind Sin.
But SKT directly grabbed Ryze from Faker on the first floor.
In comparison, FPX’s first and second floor hero supplements seem lackluster, with one Sylas and one Kai’Sa.
Even the audience's impression of the FPX team does not have a hero like Silas at all.
doinb plays very little Silas, it can even be said that he doesn’t play much.
What was Silas chosen to do?
When the SKT team locked up Titan and Prince on the second and third floors, pdd said in the commentary box that it was not good.
"SKT knew very well and directly snatched the Titan that had the best cooperation with Kai'Sa. They snatched the Titan without even considering the existence of Sylas...and clid also got another of their own.
He is a very good hero prince. To be honest, SKT’s selection of these three heroes in the early days of the team was very solid and very SKT.”
pdd sighed in his heart.
He didn't say a word yet.
That is, the SKT team probably also knows how proficient the FPX team is with Silas.
Silas' first choice seems to be only possible in the mid lane or jungle.
And whether the proficiency of FPX mid laner or jungler Silas can attract SKT's attention...at present, it is obviously not possible.
The way to deal with the third floor of FPX is to use Braum.
This move seems to be aimed at Titan, which effectively prevents Titan from being strong in the early stage of the laning, but in fact, in the opinion of pdd, it is a bit wasteful to use Titan in the well-off special position on the third floor, and once the hero Titan is selected
Once it comes out, SKT's BP ideas should be very clear.
As expected, the SKT team directly killed Kled and Zhumei in the second round of BP.
Both of these two have strong team-building capabilities.
Kled is one of the hero reserves that exists in both the upper and upper lanes of FPX.
SKT pays great attention to this hero.
In comparison, FPX's second round of BP seemed a bit pale, as they eliminated Xayah and Varus respectively.
But for an adc player like Bang who has won two world championships, the hero pool is what he lacks the most.
Moreover, Bang felt that FPX's BP was stupid and actually released his own Yin Zeriel.
Do they really think they need to add core players to their roster?
SKT is a team that is best at maxing out the functional heroes, and then through operations and teamwork, each functional hero it gets can be slightly inferior to the big core, but shine much brighter than the average core.
The presence.
In this game, Kkoma has a very clear idea of choosing the last two heroes.
Especially when Qian Jue was locked up on the fourth floor of FPX, the last doubts in Kkoma's mind were dispelled.
Kindred, Kai'Sa, Braum.
The emergence of these three heroes already means that the FPX team is about to enter the rhythm of development.
Could it be that because the last one chose a rhythm-based lineup in the early stage, which resulted in weak output in the later stage, so one naively thought that this one could compete with them in the late stage?
What a joke!
Does your FPX have the operational capabilities of Thorn Birds?
Kkoma rarely smiles on the bp stage.
Because he tends to respect his opponents and does not underestimate them.
But this FPX's BP really made him happy.
Sylas is considered a good early offensive hero, but in this version it seems that only Sylas in the jungle position can provide some offensive power. Can Sylas in the lane be used to fight Ryze?
joke.
Big joke.
"Dong He, please be more careful with this."
Kkoma suppressed the subtle smile on her lips and looked at Khan.
Although Khan felt helpless, he did not show it and immediately nodded slightly.
He knows that the fact that he is prone to accidents in the finals of major tournaments has become a household name in the LCK circles.
Therefore, even his current head coach Kkoma prefers to let him choose a hero who is relatively safe and difficult to cause trouble.
Nar.
First of all, Gnar is a jack-of-all-trades hero.
Secondly, Gnar needs to control his anger.
Therefore, whether Gnar wants to cause trouble or join the war, the initiative lies entirely with his teammates. Only when his teammates plan to join the war will Gnar have the opportunity to enter the field, unless Khan stops pretending and takes the initiative to send him off.
Then based on Gnar, SKT added Yinzeril to Bang.
This is the only doubt that Kkoma has in this BP. FPX, why not ban Yin Zeriel?
Do you really look down on bang?
Once this hero is finalized, SKT's overall lineup will be released.
Gnar in the top lane, Prince in the jungle, Ryze in the mid lane, and Yinzeril in the bottom lane team up with Titan.
A perfect BP that combines support, single-leadership, team fighting, pulling, and control into one!
Looking at his bp, Kkoma feels like he has created another piece of art.
Even if the heroes in this BP are all despised by the players, being able to get these heroes at the same time is enough to show the top skills he possesses as a coach.
Look at the other side again.
Among the four heroes that have been released so far, they are Sylas, Kai'Sa, Braum, and Kindred.
Sylas could steal their Titan or Gnar's ultimate move and call him out in a team battle, but how could they give Sylas such a chance?
As for stealing the head of Yinzeriel, the great lock of the Titans?
Just kidding, that's Yin Zerui. Even if Bang's positioning error gives him a chance to hit him, the two-stage movement will instantly open up a range of 800 yards, which won't give FPX a chance to hit them!
This bp is simply stupid...
Just when Kkoma was thinking about this, a hero appeared on the fifth floor of FPX that caused an uproar in the scene.
Pan...Pan Sen?!
When Pan Sen appeared, in the LPL commentary box, pdd was briefly stunned and then exclaimed: "Walter?"
"Ah? Locked?!"
Miller also suddenly exclaimed from the side!
"Oh my god, how long has it been since Panson appeared on the competition stage? And look at FPX's allocation...Panson is in the middle?! Then Silas is in the top lane?!"
The three people in the LPL commentary box were instantly confused.
Not only them, but Kkoma, who was originally confident of winning, was also in a bit of a mess.
As a meritorious coach who won the Triple Crown, Kkoma is not completely without weaknesses.
In fact, Kkoma's biggest weakness is that when facing a lineup that he has never seen before, his ability to make temporary adjustments is relatively poor!
This was demonstrated when ROX almost overturned SKT.
Now, FPX placed a chess game in front of him that he couldn't quite understand.
Silas, go face Gnar.
Kkoma never thought about this.
One is because if Silas is on the top lane, the team will lack front row players.
The FPX jungler picked another Kindred, so Kkoma never doubted Sylas' position.
Secondly, 957 rarely plays Silas.
At least in the useful games counted by Kkoma, the selection rate of 957 Silas is very low.
But FPX just did this.
And there is another point that Kkoma has to admit. In terms of laning attributes alone, even if Silas has been weakened for countless rounds, once Silas reaches 6 when facing Gnar, it will be an advantage.
This means that if Silas goes for Gnar in the later stage, Gnar may not be able to defeat Silas.
Also, this is Pan Sen, the mid laner...
This guy!
Kkoma raised his head and gritted his teeth as he glanced at doinb, who was supposed to be a player in the LCK but was so devoted to the LPL.
Now bp is a foregone conclusion.
There is nothing Kkoma can do.
Fortunately, his BP is very solid, and he also believes that the individual abilities and teamwork of the players in the team are better than FPX.
So...he is not panic yet!
Kkoma really doesn’t believe that a mere Pan Sen can cause such a stir.
At the same time, behind the FPX battle table.
After leaving a few words, War Horse left the stage gracefully.
"Let them know about the spirit of the warriors in our LPL division!"
