Su Yuhang failed to start the game, which directly led to the anger of the audience in the live broadcast room.
"Is there something wrong with the coach's brain? He didn't let Su Yuhang play. What does SKT think of him? A good-looking mascot?"
"Every time, the opponent is leading the score, so Su Yuhang is allowed to play. If you perform well, you will naturally be the hero of the rescue. If you perform poorly, won't you have to take the blame?"
"In the game against FIN, Ice Shooter took the initiative to start a team fight. Against LZ, he was ordered to win two games in a row. A player like the MVP of three games in three games can't start?"
"It's really funny. What I said here is that if you meet Deft and Mata, the line will naturally collapse."
"What exactly is Bang better than Su Yuhang? Whether it's online ability or team battle output."
"Except for the first game against FIN, where Su Yuhang started, Bang was the starter in the rest of the games."
"Don't blame Kkoma, she is also very difficult to do. It's not that Bang's performance is bad, he's just average. The one who's bad is Ueno."
"The correct answer upstairs is that the coach has a hard time making a choice. Bang's performance is not bad. The problem is the upper jungle, but the problem is that there is no substitute player in the upper jungle."
"Watching Su Yuhang leave the field, it really hurts my heart. A player who performed so well could not get a starting position?"
The commentator in DouYu's broadcast booth also shook his head and sighed, deeply regretting that his compatriot could not start the game.
"Su Yuhang didn't play in the first game, but he will definitely play in the second game." Shuyi comforted. "It was like this when we played against KZ."
"KZ is KZ, KT is KT." Rita couldn't agree with such an excuse. "Even when facing Pray, who has been famous for a long time, Su Yuhang's performance is remarkable. There is no reason to substitute off the court."
"I think the SKT coach may have his own ideas and considerations." Zeyuan quickly came out to smooth things over.
As commentators, they need to always pay attention to their words, especially during live broadcasts facing the audience.
Some things can be ridiculed, and some things can only be avoided.
After both parties are ready, the first round of BP begins.
KT’s blue side has the right to BAN first, and SKT’s red side.
KT took the lead in banning Malzahar, a hero who had appeared in SKT's mid lane three times in a row in the semifinals.
Especially in the first game, when he was at a big disadvantage, Faker was able to seize the opportunity to flash Hades' Grip and suppress the opponent's key C position. Such a wonderful performance was worthy of the first BAN position.
SKT even BAN two hands, Desert Emperor Azir and Rune Mage Ryze.
These two heroes used by Pawn.
In the game against SSG, Pawn used Azir for a solo kill.
"Both coaches' ban players first targeted the mid lane." Jin Minna said, "Both mid laners have used these three heroes and performed well."
"SKT and KT are both mid- and bottom-centered teams, so they naturally have to focus on their own dominant lanes for BP." Jin Zhixian analyzed, "And I think KT, who has the right to pick first, will lock down the mid lane or bottom lane heroes on the first floor.
In the second round, the corresponding ter will be carried out according to the opponent's choice."
KT's weakest position is the upper jungle, so most of the time, the coach will save the selection until the second round and target it later.
KT then banned the ice shooter Ashe and the lost tooth Gnar. In response, SKT sent Kha'Zix, who was good at Score, to the ban position.
As expected by Jin Zhixian, KT locked Kalista's Spear of Vengeance in the first position, an AD hero that Deft has used several times.
Jin Hekui once used the Spear of Revenge to kill everyone in the bubble match and semi-finals, winning a luxurious record.
"The next step is to see how SKT responds." Jin Minna said, "Facing the flexible AD of Spear of Vengeance, we must choose a hero with corresponding control to restrain it."
Previously, LZ lost the game because of its lack of directional hard control and was unable to target the well-developed Kalista in team battles, ending in the semifinals.
SKT chose Serpent's Embrace (Snake Lady) to deal with it and Kennen to deal with it.
Cassiopeia's W skill Poisonous Mist can be well restrained, and the accompanying inability to move can greatly limit Kalista's output.
Kennen also has the crowd control of his ultimate move, and can cooperate with Tech Belt and Zhonya's Hourglass to enter the scene.
"Cassiopeia is the best choice against Kalista," Jin Zhixian nodded and said: "Whether it is the ultimate move or W skill, she has a certain degree of control."
In order to protect its bottom lane core, KT chose Gem Knight Taric as a support player. The group invincibility of his ultimate move can win valuable output time in team battles.
In the middle, Vel'Koz, Eye of the Void, was chosen.
The ultimate has a long-distance spray, the passive has real damage, and has good line clearing ability. It is indeed a very good choice in the middle.
"Eye of the Void, I remember this hero was used by the SSG mid laner in the semi-finals, and the effect was very good." Jin Minna looked through the information on the table, which showed the previous game records of the two teams.
In the final selection of the first round, SKT gave Wrath of the North Sejuani as the jungler.
At the beginning of the second round of banning, Kkoma, who was holding a notebook in his hand, banned Ornn, a top lane hero with strong laning ability and ranged team-starting skills.
KT bans people against the support.
Disable Tahm Kench and Miss Fortune. The former has strong protection and support capabilities, while the latter has strong consumption ability in lane.
All Ba's commonly used bot lane combinations have been disabled.
SKT hesitated for a while and banned Jayce, the future guardian.
The second round of selection begins.
SKT first locked down AD Caitlyn in the bottom lane. With her super long range and good ability to push the lane, she won't suffer at all against Kalista.
KT picked two moves in a row.
In order to further enhance his protection ability, the top laner chose Shen, the Eye of Twilight, and the jungle Gragas Cask.
SKT finally had support left, and Kkoma gave Braum to Effort.
"It seems that KT is still more inclined to control the rhythm of the game in the middle and late stages." Kim Ji-hyun said.
Whether it is Eye of the Void or Spear of Vengeance, they both require certain equipment and level support. Top laner Shen and jungler Keg both exist to protect and divide the battlefield.
The overall invincibility of the auxiliary gems allows the middle and lower double Cs to have a better output environment and output space, which increases a lot of fault tolerance.
"SKT's lineup is also very good. The snake girl in the middle has lane rights, and Caitlyn, who is long in the bottom lane, also has the advantage of pushing the lane, which can allow Sejuani to better invade the jungle."
The jungler of the side that has the right to push the lane can invade the enemy jungle more actively, because teammates can provide corresponding support behind them at any time.
"SKT's lineup is like a sharp spear, and KT is more like a shield with offense in defense." Jin Mina used a good metaphor to describe the lineups of both sides. "This game is a duel between spear and shield."
