Chapter 249: Final Four
The semi-finals of the playoffs officially kicked off. For fans, this is a very tormenting battle. There are no fake teams that can make it to the semi-finals.
In the pre-match predictions, everyone wrote a 60-40 win rate at most, because you really can't say who can win, unless you are very optimistic about this team, the win rate will be higher.
The protagonists of the first game are SHE and KG, while TG and CLT are the protagonists of the finale.
It has to be admitted that TG has a very high historical status in LPL, and has also played very good results this year. It has a huge fan base, and it is appropriate to put them in the finale.
CLT is also here. Introducing Yue Lun may be the most correct thing that the CLT boss has done. As the rookie king of LKC, he was once the teammate that King wanted to recruit the most.
It's a pity that CLT gave too much...
Yue Lun brought them the operating model of LKC and a strong mid-lane. His outstanding personal ability and team coordination can all be scored an A.
These two teams met in the semifinals, so it's no wonder that the result is unpredictable.
Lin Xuyuan is a fan of LCK, so he took the lead and voted for the CLT team. In this way, other commentators also cast their own votes.
Wang Huo sat in the audience and threw a peanut into his mouth.
Last time, he didn't sit in the right position, which resulted in him having no viewing experience for the whole game. What's more interesting is that the person next to him that day pulled him into the RDX fan group and gave him a management.
At that moment, he had a bad idea that if he kicked all the group members, it would be comfortable. This group has more than 800 people, which is also a medium fan group.
But this is just a thought, he won't really do this. To be honest, the RDX fan group is not discussing content related to RDX.
This feels like an ordinary group, often asking for dirty pictures, videos of young ladies, etc., but in the real dirty group, they talk about very serious academic topics or current affairs, which is very interesting.
Don't ask how Wang Huo knew, just ask! It's magic!
Today he sat in the KG fan seat, and he made sure many times that there would be no mistakes before, so he sat down with peace of mind.
"What do you mean? The top four this time?"
He was very familiar with the person next to him, named Cheng Xin, the mid laner of LDL, the one who was beaten by Li Ge, and happened to sit next to him today.
Wang Huo heard his words, pondered for a while, and then said: "It depends on whether Audi gives face."
At least in his first impression, SHE's top laner is really strong, the main king is like Luo, this Wang Huo has checked, Siluo... like Luo...
Looking at the new players of KG, it seems that his previous worry about the lack of successors in LPL in the future is redundant, and the new players now are more powerful than each other.
Today, the key to KG's victory is whether Audi can withstand the pressure of this newcomer. Similarly, KG's mid and bottom lanes are also advantageous lanes. The two games won in the previous regular season were led by the mid and bottom lanes. This game also requires them to stand up.
"My brother Di, stand up!"
Cheng Xin thought about it and continued: "As long as Brother Di can stand up for one game, I will never criticize him in my life."
"Hahaha, just think about it."
Without the tempering of the competition, growth is slow. How can it be possible to reach the sky in one step? This is not a novel.
Thinking about it, he raised his head and saw the team logos of the two teams appear on the LED screen.
The gold and black shield is like Knight's name, a knight, and protection is his theme.
And the team logo of SHE is a green bird, which forms the three letters SHE, naturally, is their theme.
After replacing them one by one, the LED screen began to play the players of both sides.
"I'm so envious."
Cheng Xin looked at this scene and said absentmindedly that if he had worked harder when he was young, he might have had the opportunity to be on this stage.
It's a pity that he only wanted to live a carefree life and missed those good years and countless opportunities.
"There are so many people who envy you, you."
Wang Huo patted Cheng Xin on the shoulder and wanted him to keep working hard, but suddenly remembered that his starting position in KG. Team 2 seemed to be replaced by someone else. That person seemed to be playing very well, and Cheng Xin had few opportunities, so he held back his words.
No one paid attention to their conversation because everyone's attention was attracted by the players on the stage.
"KG! Come on!"
"KG! Come on!"
"SHE! Come on!"
This may be one of the few moments when KG's fans have a suppressive effect. After all, SHE is not much older than them. They came out in the second half of the season, and few people really noticed them in the front.
The players on the field heard the cheers from the audience and laughed along, then said: "My dear friends, I am very happy!"
"Speak human language..."
Looking at the happy Audi, Cloud said without emotion.
"I am so excited."
Audi quickly said to Cloud next to him: "It's my first time in the semifinals, I don't have much experience."
"Don't worry, you might be silenced in a while."
In the previous game with SHE, Audi didn't say anything afterwards. Fortunately, the players' mentality didn't explode, and they were still communicating.
"..."
Obviously, Audi also remembered that incident, and his face darkened...—.—
"Brother, don't mess with your teammates' mentality."
Chu Chu quickly mentioned it, and then changed the subject, saying: "This time it depends on Brother Audi's performance."
Looking at the "strategist" Chu Chu, Audi wanted to ask him, are you playing TP here for me? What's the difference between changing the subject and not changing it?
"I tell you, if I don't raise a big daddy for you in this game, I'll be sorry for me."
Audi's mentality is still relatively good, because he won IL cleanly before, which gave the players full confidence.
"Who is the team tyrant, it's clear at a glance."
Jack looked at Audi and said jokingly.
"That's right, both sides have to depend on my performance."
"Why are you so proud..."
Cloud looked at Audi with a smile.
"You don't understand. You are not yet at the level of being able to influence the battle situation."
While Audi was consuming himself, the BP phase officially began.
In the first three bans, Song Yang gave them to Rek'Sai, Olaf, and Gragas.
All three bans were aimed at junglers. Because it was a tentative first game, Song Yang wanted to try to restrict the enemy jungler and the strength of the enemy's work area.
The opponent directly pressed Galio, Ezreal, and Snake.
Galio is a classic mid-support swing of KG. In the first game, KG was on the blue side. Putting him outside was just to make himself uncomfortable.
Ezreal is a hero with strong output ability in the mid-term. Obviously, SHE is going to play a mid-term rhythm, so they pressed Ezreal, who Jack is good at.
Snake completely respects Brother Li. After all, he is currently the No. 1 Snake in LPL in the hearts of others. Of course, it is currently, and it is unclear what will happen in the future.
Song Yang tilted his head. What should he take in the first rush?
The opponent can take too many top laners, Jayce? Crocodile? These are all heroes that can put pressure on KG in the early and mid-game. As for giving Audi Ornn as the first pick? It's unnecessary.
"Take Xayah."
Xayah and Rakan are both out now. If Song Yang doesn't take them, the opponent has a high chance of taking them. In the regular season, they played Xayah and Rakan more often. So, first destroy Xayah and Rakan. If the enemy doesn't grab Rakan, Song Yang can take Rakan. Therefore, SHE's support is likely to be Rakan.
When it came to SHE's first and second picks, they waited for about two seconds. Crocodile was shown on the first floor, but they didn't choose it. After two or three seconds, they got Varus and locked Lissandra on the second floor.
Didn't grab Rakan? ?
Then the opponent gave him this Rakan, and a crocodile was shown in the middle. Does it mean that they want to take the crocodile? This is a smokescreen, because the hero pool of Rakan is a bit deep, with three five-star heroes.
In that case, Song Yang can directly take down the support Rakan. Varus can cooperate with many supports, but the most classic one is still Tam.
After Song Yang took down Rakan and Sylas in the second and third picks, the enemy also took down Tam, the support.
Rakan is a support, no doubt, but Sylas... top lane, mid lane, or even jungle.
KG has played for so long, and Sylas is basically picked for Li Ge, plus the game with IL, Li Ge's "Tathagata Palm" left a deep impression on everyone.
This can be regarded as a smoke bomb given by Song Yang. When Sylas was picked up, everyone thought it was for the mid laner, so SHE began to target the jungler in the subsequent bans.
Lee Sin was banned, Prince was banned, these are heroes that Cloud often uses, and the ones left are all weak junglers.
Song Yang banned Xin Zhao and Zac.
In the whole game, seven junglers were banned, Song Yang banned five of them himself, and the top laner was not banned, which made everyone question.
If the top lane is not targeted, Audi may not be able to withstand it, right?
SHE also didn't expect that the opponent would target their jungler so much. In this case, they can't pick many jungle heroes, and the opponent can't pick many either.
Finally, the enemy picked Pig Girl as the jungler in the fourth pick.
When it came to Song Yang, he first locked down Aatrox, and then Song Yang picked Ryze, which raised the question.
Who's the top laner? Who's the mid laner? Who's the jungler?
The opposing coach scratched his head, he was really confused, and the commentary booth looked at these three picks and didn't know where they would go.
Da Nian thought for a while and said, "Aatrox jungler? Sylas top laner, Ryze mid laner."
Aatrox jungler, Cloud had used it before, so Da Nian said so.
"It should be Ryze top laner, Sylas jungler, Aatrox mid laner."
Another commentator, Conan, had a different understanding of this, because he felt that KG's last two picks were really amazing, so KG might come up with something different.
"This is just the first round."
Meteor rubbed his hands and said with great anticipation.
There's more to come, it'll be late, let's go to bed first
