The final started at 3:30 pm. It was different from the third place match. The championship match was a best-of-five game.
Lu Hai had already submitted the roster for the final, which included Gao Lin, Xiao Zifeng, Yang Tianshui, Su Jiantong and Guo Haoran.
After breakfast, Gao Lin and the others practiced for a while in the Sai Fang training room, trying to get a feel for the game in advance and getting in tune with the lineup.
After resting for more than an hour at noon, the competition personnel came and informed them to go to the competition venue and prepare to start the opening ceremony of the finals.
Perhaps because of the finals, many people came to watch the game this time. More than 5,000 people packed the middle and front rows of Toyota Sports Center. Most of them were American spectators. , only a small number of them are Korean viewers.
Before the unveiling ceremony even started, live shots were captured in the auditorium.
I saw that the first shot caused a huge noise in the audience. The person in the shot was the famous American NBA star and current Rockets player, Chinese-American Jeremy Lin. Sitting next to Jeremy Lin was his Teammate and friend Parsons.
As if they noticed that the big screen camera was on them, the two stopped talking. Jeremy Lin waved towards the camera, while Parsons made a funny gesture like a muscular man. For a moment, the audience broke out again. There was a burst of whistles and shouts.
The camera stayed on Jeremy Lin and the two of them for a few seconds, and then quickly moved in a nearby direction.
The second shot is of a beautiful foreign girl. This beautiful foreign girl is wearing a pair of fashionable sunglasses. Her entire face cannot be seen clearly, but just from the outline of her face, you can tell that there is a beautiful face inside. .
"Hathaway." An unknown foreign audience member in the audience shouted.
Suddenly, waves of fanatical whistles and shouts erupted from the audience. It was obvious that this beauty in sunglasses was an American celebrity, and she seemed to be quite well-known.
Similarly, the camera stayed on the beauty in sunglasses for a few seconds, and then moved to SDL and the members of the 47 team sitting in the second row. Normally, as soon as the team ends the game, they usually choose to return home immediately and rarely continue. Those who stayed longer, like Daga, lost the game yesterday afternoon and hurried back home in the morning without even saying hello to Gao Lin and the others. After all, the free food and accommodation provided by the competition team ended after the team finished the schedule. Yes, if the team wants to continue to stay in Houston, all related expenses must be paid by the team themselves.
Seeing himself appear on the big screen, Kirilenko, the star captain of SDL, Team 47, waved to the camera with a modest smile on his face. Immediately, another burst of whistles and shouts broke out in the audience.
In just two or three seconds, the competition camera turned to the people of Gao Lin sitting in the front row of the contestants area.
Gao Lin was looking at the big screen, but he didn't expect that he suddenly appeared inside. He was startled. He quickly came to his senses and smiled at the camera. He didn't think it would have any repercussions at first, but he didn't expect it. Yes, a roar suddenly erupted from the audience.
"chine color lin, looking tempting, (china lin, it's up to you,)"
support temptation, (I support you,)"
"Kill the Korean guys, (kill these Korean guys,)"
"f,uckingthem."
…
Like a clamor, every American audience member shouted at the top of their lungs.
After hearing so many English curses, some Korean fans stood up from their seats and gave the middle fingers to the American audience who were yelling. However, it was okay if they did not raise their middle fingers. Many American audience members stood up from their seats when they did. He stood up and gave the Korean audience the middle finger, and kept spouting American curses.
Not to be outdone, the Korean fans cursed in Korean one after another. Unfortunately, the American audience could not understand them. In addition, their Korean curses were not as intuitive and rough as American curses, resulting in a one-sided scene. A few rude American viewers He even wanted to rush from his seat to the Korean audience area and start a fight, but was stopped in time by several game staff.
Looking back at the slightly chaotic auditorium, Gao Lin couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and didn't pay much attention to it.
"These sticks, it means those who do evil will be punished by death." Yang Tianshui said with a smile.
The Korean team has always had a bad reputation internationally. Although they are very strong, their arrogant attitude and rude behavior have made many countries dissatisfied, especially in the last S1 Finals. It happened once that after a Korean team defeated the American star team UFT, a Korean professional player insinuated the captain of the UFT team in front of the domestic media after the game, which made American e-sports fans even more disgusted with the Korean team.
"You should also pay attention to me." Gao Lin glared at Yang Tianshui. This guy often scolded the country during competitions. Although he only said it in his own player area and was not directed at his opponent, if he was criticized by the competition team If the top management knows about it, it will be very detrimental to the team.
Fortunately, the competition referees in the contestant area are all Chinese. Out of the mentality of Chinese people to protect their fellow countrymen, the two competition referees treated them relatively loosely and did not report it to the competition team because of this. But it is conceivable that if they were replaced, If the referee from another country fails, Yang Tianshui will receive at least a few verbal warnings or warnings from the competition team.
"What's wrong with me? I didn't do anything extraordinary." Yang Tianshui said.
"You should talk less trash during the game, and don't think that others can't hear you," Gao Lin said.
"Ahem, I didn't tell anyone else, who did this affect?" Yang Tianshui coughed as he seemed to realize that he did say a lot of curse words during the game.
"You know who it affects, so you don't even know if something happens."
…
As the two talked, the opening ceremony of the finals began.
Different from usual, the opening ceremony of the finals was very grand. The organizers specially invited the Linkin Park band to perform the "League of Legends" theme song "Numb" passionately live, and also invited the American pop singer Avril Lavigne to sing "Underskin" .
After the two singers successfully ignited the entire scene with their songs, the chairman of the "League of Legends" competition and the organizer took to the stage to speak.
The content of the words is nothing more than talking about the history of the Confederations Cup and its achievements.
After the two big guys spoke eloquently for a few minutes, the chief designer of Sai Fang walked onto the stage holding a disc.
After the chief designer made a few opening remarks, he opened the disc of red cloth in his hand and saw a small gold trophy inside.
As soon as the trophy appeared, a burst of whistles and shouts suddenly erupted from the audience.
