"The last set was quite difficult. The team commentators thought you were going to hit GG for several rounds."
"Can you tell us more about the situation at that time?"
The little pigeon asked again.
Gao Ran also replied truthfully:
"The situation at that time was okay. As long as I don't die, they can't touch the high ground."
"My teammates gave me all their resources."
"The opponent came up with a system that we didn't expect and almost killed us in the early stage."
Nigma must have stepped up his game in such a critical game, but he didn't expect it to be such a lineup.
It was only a matter of seconds before Dream was fucked.
"The next game is LGD vs. OG."
"This is also a strong confrontation. Who do you think has a higher winning rate, LGD or OG?"
Gao Ran replied:
"I don't know, I think LGD has a chance to win as long as they implement their style."
"Hopefully they can win."
Today's 3 Bo3 decisive battles are full, and 9 games have been played.
It is already 11pm local time in Poland.
The Bo3 decisive battle between LGD and OG has just begun...
If the fight lasts for a long time, it is very likely that the fight will last until two o'clock in the middle of the night...
This is too scary for the teams that fall into the lower bracket.
Because the winner's bracket final will be played the day after tomorrow, and there will be a knockout match tomorrow afternoon after falling into the loser's bracket.
If you fall asleep in the middle of the night, you may not be able to rest as well.
After once again confirming that Dream's goal was to win the championship, Dream also packed up and returned to the hotel.
There is no match for them tomorrow, so they don't have to rush to sleep. They can finish watching this crucial game first.
…
This day's Ti game should be the best in Ti.
The fight started at 11 o'clock in the morning and continued until the early hours of the morning!
The key is that LGD and OG also reached the third set again.
The one-day Ti knockout match lasted 12 sets.
All filled up.
But no one felt sleepy at all, and the decisive game between LGD and OG began.
LGD still used their most familiar system of the Steelback Beast! OG chose the mid laner Du Long to target them in the last resort.
This Poison Dragon not only restrains Charles's Steelback Beast, but also restrains Maybe's mid laner Purple Cat.
It’s just that Maybe played very well in this game! He also cooperated with Fy’s Xiaoqiang to attack Poison Dragon and completely reversed the situation!
The two sides started a melee in the mid-term.
LGD's wave after wave of attacks still found opportunities for the OG team.
A wave of buying and selling counterattacks killed the LGD dual-core one after another!
Ana's Terror Blade has also been completely improved. It has the only economic level. In the middle and late stages, LGD's lineup is no match for the formed Terror Blade.
Even though there were two very beautiful team battles using pull, the output was seriously insufficient.
The steel-backed beast is completely helpless in front of a cannon and a terrifying blade.
LGD played GG in 44 minutes!
Another loss to OG in several years!
And OG's terrifying state this year is enough to make any team tremble.
No matter what the game is, I feel that OG's ideas are extremely clear and they can turn over every game.
This kind of team can’t help but be reminiscent of Dream.
This is also a team with full resilience and clear thinking.
The only difference is that Dream is not as strong online.
Generally speaking, the personal abilities of OG players are stronger than those of Dream.
And it can be seen from the previous games that as long as Gao Ran does not have an absolute advantage in the middle, he may even have an advantage in the middle.
Dream's situation will not be very good in the early to mid-term.
It's just because he doesn't play particularly well on the wing.
Except for the second game of the secret game, which had a hearty crushing flavor, the other games seemed to be very thrilling.
But Dream can always win in dangerous situations, which is also a skill.
…
The Ti knockout competition lasts for 6 days in total.
It has been going on for 3 days now, and 8 of the 16 teams in the knockout round have been eliminated.
Dota fans around the world are also a little confused.
There are many fans who have watched the whole process of Ti through the live broadcast. Yesterday, the battle between LGD and OG ended at 2:20 midnight local time.
Then the game started again at 10 a.m. local time in Poland...
However, LGD's loser group match will be played in the third game in the afternoon, so they can take a little more rest in the morning.
The first game, Secret versus C9!
This is a team vs individual battle.
Because C9 is the same as Dream, the mid laner's personal ability is too outstanding, and the secret is that all members are strong.
Sumail scored 29 kills against the Blue Cat in the first set, and changed his destiny to help C9 win its first victory!
The secret also made us a little confused.
The second set didn't slow down either, Sumail's mid laner's Three Holy Swords BKB Satan Dragon Heart!
All the way flat A.
Led C9 to defeat Secret 2-0!
As a result, the secret devil fell to the top 8.
This year’s TI also saw a lot of upsets.
First, Dream made great progress, then Nigma defeated the powerful enemy EG, and then C9 defeated the secret devil...
But the game was also quite exciting.
Judging from the historical process of Dota, even if OG mid laner Topson and Ti double crown.
If the position of the world's number one mid laner is given to Sumail, there will be no dispute among Dota fans around the world.
The 15-year-old turned out to be an incredible performer and won the championship.
His personal performance in the following years was also impeccable.
Except for Maybe, in recent years, no one has been able to achieve a 50-50 draw with Sumail in the middle lane.
God knows how much Gao Ran wanted to compete with C9 and Sumail when watching the C9 game.
Gao Ran played against Sumail in the group stage, and I still feel unfinished.
And the situation at that time certainly cannot be compared with a head-to-head confrontation in the knockout rounds.
I just want to fight back and fight. If it really happens, it means Dream loses to OG...
Dream falls to the lower bracket finals, or C9 makes it all the way to the finals.
Anyway, don’t think about it.
Just talking about mid lane laning, the only ones who can compete with Gao Ran are Sumail, Topson and Maybe.
Maybe is getting a little older and is struggling a bit now. The first two are both the top mid laners in the world.
EG, the lower half of the loser group, faced TNC.
It was also successfully won 2-0.
Chinese fans have finally waited for LGD’s debut.
They will face the challenge of C9.
Maybe and Sumail, two talented teenagers who have been fighting for several years, once again started a duel.
"Maybe I'm old."
Gao Ran watched the duel between these two top mid laners and sighed.
Maybe's laning details are still very good, but if you ask a 26- or 7-year-old mid laner to fight against a 21- or 2-year-old mid laner, it's a bit disrespectful of the laws of nature.
But C9 is no match for LGD after all.
Sumail changed his fate and won the game.
But overall LGD is still stronger than C9, and C9 is also out of the game.
Ti has reached the last two days.
There are only 5 rounds left.
The penultimate day.
10:00: Fourth round of the lower half of the loser group: [EG] vs [Nigma]
13:00: Upper Bracket Finals: [OG] vs [Dream]
16:00: The fifth round of the loser group: [LGD] vs [?]
Dream still wakes up at the normal time to eat and adjust her condition.
In this upper bracket final, they will also face their strongest opponent OG.
