May 21, 2021, is another unforgettable day for league viewers in all major competition regions.
Snake, who traveled to Iceland, advanced all the way to the mid-season semifinals. The PSG team failed to cause too much trouble to Snake and was swept out 3:0.
The youth legion led by Li Hao himself reached the world finals again!
Who would have believed it a few months ago?
At that time, Li Hao announced his retirement, and the most common thing people said about Snake was: Look, Snake will not be able to perform well next season.
Reality slapped me in the face again.
In the Korean Division, under the background of Li Hao's retirement, DWG changed its name to DK to compete in this mid-season championship. Before their departure, LCK fans unashamedly raised the banner of "Rebuilding Glory".
Five years!
LCK was ruled for five full years.
This time in Iceland is the time to regain glory and wash away the shame.
However, the stick guys never dreamed of it
The opponent DK faces is still Snake.
The number one esports player who dominates the league sits on the coaching bench and cannot directly suppress the players on the field. However, judging from more and more games, he seems to be slowly fermenting a new feeling on the coaching bench.
.
otherwise
You can't explain why a young team can reach the world finals after being in his hands.
Kkoma was once a legendary coach of the LCK, and he has a high status in the coaching world.
But compared with today's Li Hao, even Kkoma is a bit inferior.
People became suspicious and continued to discuss this topic. One day later, the popularity of the topic exploded!
On May 23, 2021, Snake collided with DK.
The two youth groups played BO5.
In the last game of the finals, Snake relied on his more overall performance and more tacit cooperation to win the key team battle, defeating DK in the 39th minute!
The 2021 MSI championship is won by Snake again.
Does DK have a chance to win the championship?
Of course!
Compared to facing the invincible Snake team led by Shi Yizhong, DK has more opportunities against this Snake and has more reasons to win. They are competing on the same level.
But just that little difference made DK go crazy and made LCK furious.
"We underestimated The King again. He can take over a youth team and build it into a world-class team. A few months ago, no one would have believed that the team that won the Mid-Season Gold Cup was still Snake."
Emperor Pao Xiao shouted crazily at the mid-season semifinals:
"The number one player in e-sports is showing us his terrifying coaching ability."
Speaking of this, even Haochui CT, who was the number one player at the time, lamented for the previous LCK team:
"If you think about it, it would be terrible to have The King like this on the field."
"A normal coach?"
"No!"
"The Korean team used to be fighting against the strongest players and the strongest coaches on the field. We should give more understanding to the teams that lost to Snake. They were really fighting against God!"
"..."
Not only the LCK commentary booth, but also the commentary in each major competition area is the same.
Li Hao once again stood on the stage to receive the award with the young contestants. This scene stimulated many viewers.
Has the legend really come to an end?
Many people were stimulated and they were ready to take revenge in the summer split.
Although Snake won the championship, the finals were extremely thrilling and DK was fully capable of winning the championship.
