Encountered a wave of ambushes, a dense formation, and a terrifying AOE.
SKT put together all the factors to destroy the team.
The shots of the five members of SKT almost all turned black. Wolf's reaction speed was very fast, but in panic, he didn't know who he gave his magic immunity shield to. Anyway, the other person was already lying on the ground the moment he pressed the skill.
land.
The time between his teammates and his death was less than two seconds.
SKT, all members of the team were wiped out.
Li Luo's Yin Zairui only scored a double kill in this wave of team battles. There was nothing he could do about it. Apart from that ultimate move, it was indeed difficult for Yin Zairui to focus fire on all targets at the same time.
On the contrary, Ornn's second-stage ultimate move that collided with the sheep directly cleared the blood line of the two of them. Combined with an E skill that flashed over the wall, it hit the policewoman, and achieved three kills in one wave.
"Damn it! The labor and management don't have any heads?"
Xiangguo couldn't help shouting.
His excavator had already released its ultimate move and made a screaming sound, but before he could get out of the policewoman's body, the policewoman was gone.
"Have mercy on the poor kid. My brother was always being stared at from the other side. As a result, Brother Luo was killed indiscriminately. I feel like an outsider."
Brother Shengqiang chuckled, but he was crying out.
"Concentrate first, then you can do a wave."
Li Luo saw a few people floating around and immediately spoke.
As the team's commander-in-chief, Li Luo often has to shoulder the responsibility of pulling back his teammates who are floating.
When SKT came together as a team, they didn't take care of the top lane troops.
Although the military line currently in front of the second tower is about to be exhausted, a new wave of military lines has arrived at the triangular grass on the upper road on the blue side, which is very close to where the team battle between the two sides will break out.
After the group was wiped out, the Thorn Birds went straight to the top road along the upper triangle of grass. When they joined the army line, they also bathed the army line in the Baron buff.
At the same time, SKT was on the playing field.
"Ah Yixi..."
faker smoothed the hair from his forehead with both hands, exposing his hairline, baring his teeth at the same time, and almost couldn't hold back the swear words.
Seeing the Thorn Birds grouping together to advance on the road, a feeling of despair arose spontaneously. Subconsciously, Faker glanced at Bang, who was sitting next to him.
It is obvious where the despair in my heart comes from.
The policewoman can blow up the line when she hits Yin Zeruil.
What a mess.
Of course, this doesn't mean that professional players will never have line explosions. The problem is that there are different types of line explosions.
It would be fine if you were caught and bombed.
Even being killed in a 2v2 line is nothing more than that.
Brother, you belong to Xibal and were killed by the line during 2v1.
They beat both of you one by one, and then killed the adc first in front of your assistants. The whole process of killing the adc was only attacked by the policewoman.
Are you two working for a living?
Faker has already made a decision at this moment. No matter what, he will suggest to Kkoma later that he really shouldn't give this kind of hero to Bang. The so-called tactical suppression is just a joke in the face of absolute strength.
Of course, no need for faker to say, Kkoma has also made a decision.
For this BO5, Kkoma made five preparations.
And these 5 moves are all aimed at after a certain round of failure.
This is just first hand.
If the first move fails, they will come up with plan B.
Even if Plan B fails, they can still come up with Plan C. While coming up with Plan C, they can also start preparing for air tickets...
As soon as this idea appeared in Kkoma's mind, he was instantly thrown away.
You can't even think about it. My record in the past two years has fully demonstrated a truth.
Good ones don't work, bad ones work.
Don't think about it, concentrate on doing a good job in BP, and comfort the players who have mental problems. This is what he should do now.
And with SKT suddenly losing the first game, heated discussions arose both at home and abroad.
Although the LCK has lost the S competition for two consecutive years, in the eyes of the public, this year's LCK is indeed more promising than last year.
Last year's LCK was like a clown who desperately wanted to regain it after a short period of loss. In addition to vigorous media promotion, they did not show enough dominance in their understanding of the version and against teams outside of the LPL division.
On the contrary, this year the LCK has indeed gotten rid of some of the shortcomings that existed in their division, and at the same time, the active use of fresh blood has added a little vitality to the entire division.
And in the World Championship, the three LCK teams all performed well.
Coupled with their hidden top and jungle duo in the semi-finals, it also brought a lot of reverie to many LCK fans. They hope that this SKT can really return to the top of the throne this year.
But after the first fight...
They suddenly realized that it seemed that the team's problem did not lie in the jungler, but in someone, or some people, who had not been changed but was firmly in the starting lineup.
"I just want to ask why you don't change the duo in the bottom lane. Every time you encounter Shine, you will explode. Shine has been matched with three supports. Any one of them can abuse your duo. Shine is a banger and can't tell.
?"
"Don't let him play policewoman. Is he able to play? He can't play!"
"Bang's female police officers have a strange smell. They are nothing but last-hitters, and their clamps are like shit."
"If Wolf chooses Morgana, it will not play the role of Morgana. If I encounter this kind of Morgana in the queue, I will directly report it. What's the use of hanging behind? How many times has he used this ultimate move?"
"There is really no other way to go to the midfield. Let Bang play. He really can't do it. He was abused by ruler, deft, and viper in China. He has really become a shortcoming of SKT's team now."
There was overwhelming ridicule on the Korean Internet.
These ridicules were quickly carried to domestic Tieba forums.
There is no doubt that the comments of Korean netizens have become a source of fun for domestic netizens.
"One thing I have to say, I thought that the first round might be over in about thirty minutes, but I never expected that the first round would be over in just over 20 minutes."
"Brothers, I don't even know what happened. When I saw the Thorn Birds beating the Baron, I thought they would have to operate for a while, so I went to get a takeaway and it was gone when I came home."
"How dare you let go of Yin Zerui who is so lost? How come you forgot about your loss in the S7 finals?"
"Go! I'm already so hungry for the third LPL S Championship trophy!"
"Damn it, if you win this final, wouldn't Brother Luo be the unprecedented Triple Crown champion?"
…
During the lively discussion among the audience, the rest time for both parties also passed quickly.
As the camera was returned to the commentary box again, Guan Zeyuan said with a smile: "We received news that the Thorn Birds team, which had priority in selecting sides in the second game of BO5, finally chose the blue side."
"In this case, SKT's BP will have to consider it more seriously. Banning Pan Sen by default will make them lose one ban position in their first three BPs. Of course, if SKT has any big moves in hand, then in It is indeed a better choice for the red side to release, after all, the red side has two counter positions."
When Miller finished speaking, the three commentators also received prompts from the director.
Wawa immediately said: "Okay, then let's enter the BP stage together! The blue side Thorn Birds, the red side SKT~!"
The BP of the second match between the two sides officially begins.
On the thorn bird battle table.
"They might turn this into a big formation."
Xiangguo said thoughtfully: "Kanvi's Qianjue, male gun, and Qiana are all very good at it. What can we say about this one?"
"It's simple, just do a elimination method."
The holy gun brother smiled: "This version of the male gun is a bit stupid, and the core is not strong enough in the later stage, so only Qian Jue and Kiana are left. We can take one or kill one."
"Then press Kiana."
Li Luo pondered for two seconds and said, then seemed to think of something, added another sentence, and pressed the card.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Thorn Birds including coach Zhu Kai was startled.
Immediately, Xiye was the first to react, smiled and said, "Brother Luo, you have to be smart. I didn't think of this at the first time."
J.
This is the hero that SKT will choose when in doubt.
It is actually not difficult to analyze the opponent's psychology and figure out the lineup that the opponent may choose for the second time.
How did SKT lose in the first game?
The bottom lane exploded, causing a chain reaction.
Faced with the tank Ornn on the top lane and the counter-crouching of the Incense Excavator, it is difficult for the Spider Queen to play a very smooth rhythm.
At this time, if you look at it from the perspective of SKT and Kkoma's thinking, you will find that SKT should have realized that Kanavi's ability to lead the rhythm is inferior to that of Xiangguo. At best, it is evenly matched.
According to SKT's system, when the bottom lane has obvious shortcomings, it is not enough for the jungler to just balance the power.
If you can’t beat the rhythm, then why try?
There is a high probability that it is a big core.
The three ban positions in front of the Thorn Bird were Ryze, Card, and Kiana.
In contrast, the SKT team eliminated Panson, Karma, and Xayah.
When it was the Thorn Bird's turn to choose on the first floor, the Thorn Bird immediately locked Kai'Sa without saying a word!
"Ka'Sa will come out directly! Oh, the Thorn Birds have come out for testing. Since your bottom lane can't pose a big threat to me in the laning phase, then I will simply choose Kai'Sa, who is guaranteed in the later stage!"
Miller's eyes lit up, and then he said: "The first two teams of the SKT team were also very fast in selecting players. This time they learned the lesson from the previous team and directly selected the cats to match Yin Zeruil!"
"I chose the duo in the bottom lane first. Then Yin Zeruil can withstand pressure. Looking at SKT's other positions, it's not difficult to guess. Now what they have to do is to finalize a player on the third floor who can take the cat with him in the mid-to-late game.
Casting to dominate the game…”
Guan Zeyuan said thoughtfully, but as soon as he finished speaking, the heroes on the second and third floors of Thorn Bird were quickly finalized.
Nicole on the second floor.
Wine barrel on the third floor!
Neeko is a bit more normal, and is considered a popular hero in the version, but Thorn Birds is indeed not chosen that many times.
But as soon as this barrel was locked, countless high-level players and even professional players who were watching the game couldn't help but give the Thorn Birds BP a thumbs up.
Wine barrel!
This hero is very popular in the current version and is widely used in most lineups.
Because Wine Barrel is a hero that can smoothly transition from the early stage to the mid stage and then to the late stage.
The excellent team-starting ability and the ability to destroy terrain make Wine Barrel one of the most versatile heroes.
The most critical point is that the Thorn Birds can take the wine barrel, which shows that they have seen SKT's tactical intentions.
You must know that in this world championship, Kanavi won Kindred twice in the three games he played!
The barrel's ultimate move can be said to be the nemesis of Kindred's ultimate move!
Then SKT, will you still choose?
At this time, Kkoma had a dark look on his face at the SKT team's battle table.
There is a lack of ban seats!
If their hand is still on the blue side, they will definitely press the barrel.
but now……
Could it be that we choose Morgana again? Then let faker play it?
Kkoma shuddered at the thought.
Why do I keep thinking about these messy things today?
Apart from anything else, if they really take Morgana, their rhythm in the early and mid-term will be broken, and they will be very passive in the resource group.
"Can you?"
Kkoma looked at kanavi.
Kanavi hesitated.
In fact, he has no problem in his heart.
It's true that the barrel's ultimate move can restrain Kindred.
But there is no absolute restraint in League of Legends.
The so-called restraint still depends on the integrity of the lineup.
Just like the current top three options for Thorn Birds are Barrel, Neeko, and Kai'Sa. Among these three heroes, only Barrel can start a group first.
But if Wine Barrel starts the group first, as long as he is not driven back, then the restraint of Kindred by Wine Barrel's ultimate move will naturally be weakened by half.
Therefore, what they have to do is to contain the possible group-starting heroes that may appear in the Thorn Birds team in the future, and to reduce the Thorn Birds’ group-starting methods as much as possible!
SKT is on the third floor, lock down Qian Jue!
It’s a clear sign!
Both sides entered the second round of banning.
The Thorn Birds prevented SKT from getting the dual core, so the Sword Demon was directly knocked out by the Thorn Birds first, and the Tsar who followed Faker also suffered.
Looking purely at the laning, the Czar has a hand length advantage against Neeko.
Moreover, in a team fight, the Czar's ultimate move is relatively restrained from Neeko's entry.
This is another hero with Faker's extremely high proficiency. At this juncture, we still have to respect him.
In comparison, the SKT team's second round was very targeted.
First they pressed Luo.
Immediately afterwards, the signature hero prince knocked down the incense pot.
Both of these two have absolutely strong ability to start a group first.
They are also the two heroes that SKT believes pose the greatest threat to their lineup.
Of course, there are other heroes who start the team first. The reason why SKT did not choose to ban them is because they have targeted methods and methods.
After these two heroes were pressed down, SKT locked down Silas on the fourth floor, leaving the counter position on the fifth floor for the top laner.
It's the Thorn Bird's turn to choose.
I saw the Titan on the fourth floor of Thorn Bird without hesitation.
Then the Dream Demon was added on the fifth floor!
When he saw Titan, Kkoma's face was filled with smile.
Choose Titan over Silas.
It is enough to show that the Thorn Birds team also realizes that they must have a very stable starting hero.
Why didn't they kill Titan?
It's because Sylas can steal Titan's strength and backfire on Kai'Sa.
Highlight that the effects of a force are reciprocal.
But the fifth-floor dream demon of the Thorn Birds team was unexpected by Kkoma.
Although Dream Demon is Xiang Guo's specialty hero, he hasn't played it for a long time. Even if Thorn Bird could play it before, it was always played with Titan.
Dream Demon and Neeko...
What way?
Kkoma didn't have time to think too much.
The Dream Demon locked down, and it was basically certain that the wine barrel was on its way.
Therefore, he chose to supplement A with Gnar on the fifth floor to make him feel more comfortable during the laning phase.
The quick-footed Gnar doesn't have to worry about being consumed by the barrel when faced with it.
And in the middle and late stages, as long as SKT can deceive Dream Demon's ultimate move first, Gnar can help the side.
"In that case...the lineups of both sides are completely finalized!"
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan said with emotion: "It feels like both sides have used their ultimate skills. The blue side has the Thorn Birds team, the top laner's wine barrel, the jungler Dream Demon, the mid laner Nicole, and the bottom lane duo.
They are Kai'Sa and Titan!"
"The red side SKT team, Gnar in the top lane, Kindred in the jungle, Silas in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo is Yin Zerel paired with cats!"
"The players on both sides are ready, let's enter the second game of this BO5 century battle between The Thorn Birds and SKT."
"Whether the Thorn Birds can get the match point, or SKT can pull it back, let's wait and see!"
