Chapter 337 Zhou Dian’s top prediction, LPL wins another victory in the intercontinental finals!
EDG, who started the match on behalf of the LPL, unexpectedly won the first game of the finals.
After EDG defeated Samsung.
LPL's hope of winning the intercontinental finals can be said to have increased by 20%.
This makes LPL fans extremely excited.
In the remaining four games of the final, with LGD here, it is still very possible to win two games.
Coupled with the first game that EDG won, there are three games!
In this case.
LPL’s choice of playing in the second game has also become a hot topic of discussion.
The mainstream opinion still favors the LPL side, and RNG will be sent to play in the second game.
On the LCK side, after losing the first game, it is very likely that one of SKT or KT will be sent out in the second game.
Because the LCK side definitely doesn’t want to be beaten to zero to two.
For them, they must equalize the score in the second game.
Then, this task of "giving away people's heads" should be left to the relatively weaker RNG.
There are still three teams left in the LPL that have not played.
LGD and WE are obviously stronger than RNG.
Gao Xiong Exhibition Hall, in the backstage lounge.
When EDG destroyed the Samsung group.
All the people in the lounge cheered.
With EDG bulldozing Samsung's base crystal.
For the second game of the intercontinental finals, the LPL teams have also been selected.
The WE team will compete in the second game of the finals.
This choice was made despite the fact that WE took the initiative to ask for help.
But the joint coaching staff also gave it serious consideration.
On the LCK side, the ones who played in the second game were either SKT or KT.
Now the LCK is trailing 0-1, and it is impossible to field the weakest MVP team in the second game.
Because the MVP team currently ranked last in the LCK Summer Split has no chance of winning against the remaining three teams in the LPL.
It seems like it would be a good idea to let RNG cash in on the chips in this round.
However, since it is a best-of-five-game system, it is not enough to only win against the three-star and MVP teams.
It is impossible for the LPL to win the finals if they cannot win at least one game against SKT and KT.
The four teams of LPL participating in the intercontinental competition this time.
From before the final started, I was full of murderous intent and played the final with the belief that I would win.
It is impossible to achieve the desired results by simply avoiding.
Just be positive!
No matter who your opponent is, you must never give up on the game before the game is played.
If WE goes to play a game with SKT or KT, there is no chance of winning.
It’s completely beatable.
Since WE takes the initiative, let WE play the second game!
At this time, except for meiko who was accepting a short post-match interview.
The other four members of EDG also returned to the lounge at this time.
Everyone in the lounge applauded again.
At this time, Zhou Dian suddenly said: "Awesome, factory director."
Then other players also started to boo, saying, "Awesome, factory director."
Qi Jiang was even a little embarrassed.
After laughing and joking for a while, the WE team was about to take the stage to prepare for the second game.
When everyone in WE left the lounge, Zhou Dian winked at 957, who was at the back.
957 understood what Zhou Dian meant. He was referring to the solo practice they had for more than an hour last night.
Especially in the later part, the Prince who trained specifically for Huni faced off against Jax.
Nodding towards Zhou Dian, 957 turned around and followed his teammates.
"Okay, viewers, welcome back. What we are about to bring you is the second game of the Intercontinental Finals."
Wawa continued: "I just got the news that in the second game, our LPL division has sent out the WE team to face the SKT team in the LCK division."
As soon as Wawa finished speaking, PDD touched his forehead. Said:
"Hey, I like this matchup very much. He just finished it."
After the match list for the second game was released, Mr. Piao was quite optimistic.
But it has already exploded on major online communication platforms in mainland China.
Netizens all expressed doubts and displeasure about LPL sending WE in the second round.
There are only a few opinions.
It would be a shame to let WE go head-to-head with SKT.
Why not send RNG to win the game?
SB Hongmi, send RNG in this round. We have already won half of the finals. I am better than you in this game.
People who have these thoughts probably assume that WE will lose to SKT.
Occasionally, some different voices said, "What if WE beat SKT?", and they were immediately drowned out by the mainstream.
While there was endless debate outside the court, the players on the court had already adjusted the equipment, and the BP in the second round of the finals was about to begin.
This LPL division has priority in selecting sides.
WE chose the blue side, while SKT was on the red side.
When SKT faced WE in the group stage the day before yesterday, Blank was in the jungle position.
In this final, SKT adjusted their jungler and replaced him with Peanut.
The constant rotation of the jungle position is also the epitome of SKT's current summer split.
On the big screen, BP started.
The first round of BP.
SKT hesitated for a long time in the third ban position, but they still couldn't regain Galio for two months without banning.
Galio was released.
WE showed no mercy and grabbed Galio directly from the first floor.
Seeing 957 take down Galio on the first floor, several coaches in the LPL lounge looked a little excited.
In this intercontinental competition, the LPL can be said to be extremely united.
Several teams contributed all their understandings and discussed together.
During last night’s training, it was discussed that SKT would most likely let Galio go and let Faker choose Snake to play.
The joint coaching staff has already discussed a plan for SKT to deal with when they choose Snake Girl.
Zhou Dian narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the BP interface on the TV screen on the wall.
He thought more.
If SKT dares to release Galio, it should be because they are confident to deal with the system of Prince Galio, and Prince should also be released.
In the middle, Faker will most likely choose Snake to play Contagario.
So on the road, what hero will Huni choose to fight the prince?
Would he choose that hero?
After the first round of selection. WE still had top assist but no one left, and SKT still had no top mid.
At the beginning of the second round of BP, Miller said:
“WE, on our side, do you want to ban Contagario heroes like Snake.”
< br>However, WE did not ban Snake Girl.
It was SKT's turn to choose first on the fourth floor. After more than ten seconds of hesitation, Jax was shown on the red side on the fourth floor.
Seeing SKT lock Jax, 957 suddenly got a little excited.
WE coach Hongmi frowned after seeing Jax.
His original plan was to take the top lane position, and he must choose the prince.
But SKT’s Jax made him a little worried.
It’s hard for the prince to beat Jax!
"Is the prince confident in beating Jax?" Hongmi asked 957.
“No problem, no problem, just choose!” 957’s answer was firm.
In the LPL lounge.
Seeing SKT pick Jax, Eimy and Wei Shen couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Zhou Dian with a little weird expression.
Then the two looked at each other and understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
Last night, they saw Zhou Dian and 957 practicing the prince's fight against Jax for a full hour.
Seeing their expressions, Zhou Dian spread his hands and shrugged.
On the field, WE chose the prince on the fifth floor.
As expected, SKT chose Snake to come to Counter Galio in the last move.
SKT’s lineup tends to be single-minded, which is what they are good at.
The prince Galio selected by WE is also very LPL style.
When the game is loading the interface, the camera scans the players on both sides.
“Wow, look at 957’s mysterious smile, I feel like he is extremely confident today.” PDD shouted.
Waby continued: "Actually, I'm still a little worried. In this lineup, WE is not easy to fight in all three lanes."
Hearing this, PDD immediately said: " You have to fight even if it’s hard to fight. In my understanding, WE’s lineup cannot be at a disadvantage. Once it’s at a disadvantage, there’s no way to fight.”
Before he finished speaking, Faker's snake girl ran to WE's jungle area with support to interfere with Condi's F6.
Faker wanted to grab an F6 birdie, but accidentally went a little deeper.
WE's bottom duo, who originally went down, turned back.
The auxiliary was weak, and WE's double C flashed out, chasing the snake girl to death.
The head was taken by Big Mouth.
In less than 2 minutes of game time, Brother Li sent out first blood.
These explanations of feelings are taking turns to poison the breasts.
Before the replay of the first blood was given, the camera suddenly cut to the top lane.
The level 2 prince hit Jax with a QE, then walked up and hit Jax with an A. This attack brought Passive and Immortal Grip, and Jax's health dropped sharply.
Jax also opened W and wanted to backhand Prince A.
Jax's basic attack range with W is increased by 50 yards, reaching 175 yards, which is the same as the prince.
But 957 stuck and swung back the basic attack of Jax's A soldier, and Prince A turned around after finishing it.
The moment Jax fired W, the prince was no longer alive.
Huni was pulled by 957 in this wave.
Jax split open directly. This blood exchange directly reduced the prince's blood by more than 200 drops. He only had 200 blood points, and he was a little out of line.
Seeing this, Zhou Dian felt that WE had already won half of the second game of the finals.
The main thing is that Huni is really too pretentious when playing games.
Jax helped the blind monk open the jungle, and 957's prince went online directly.
Prince came online before Jax and gained some line rights.
But Huni is a tough guy, and Jax has the skill of Counter Storm, which requires a level-1 blood exchange.
As a result, he was pulled by 957 and lost blood!
Now we can only stay back to gain some experience and wait for the line of soldiers to enter the tower.
At this time, the prince reached level three.
957 didn’t learn W, so he directly upgraded Q by two levels in seconds.
The prince struck a dragon, and his Q reached Jax, and Jax's health dropped again.
By this time, Jaques had also drank all the corruption potion, and only one-third of his health was left.
I have no choice but to choose to go home and TP out again.
Three minutes into the 1V1 matchup and played TP.
I can only say that SKT has lost the position of top laner.
Jax bought a cloth armor TP and put it under the tower, and then jumped up to exchange for blood, but he lost money again.
Huni, this B, is really stubborn.
The result of the stubbornness is that the prince will lose his life twice.
At level 5, the prince beat Jax to half health, then returned home and teleported to full state to block the army line.
Jax had no choice but to go home and walk up, and then at the cost of blood, he forcibly pushed the line of troops and went home again.
This time Jax was completely torn apart and was knocked home three times in less than 7 minutes.
The Conte hero selected later was already suppressed by a whole level in 7 minutes.
And in this game, SKT's overall trend was just like the top lane matchup, which slowly collapsed under the impact of WE.
When Jax develops to the point where he can fight the prince casually in a single lane.
SKT has been destroyed by Prince, Rek'Sai, and Galio.
At 31 minutes of game time, WE crossed the middle highland tower and rushed SKT, and the brother-in-law's big mouth flashed and sprayed four.
SKT only had Nosuke left alive and was unable to resist.
In the LPL commentary box.
"Congratulations in advance for WE's victory over SKT!"
"Brother-in-law is handsome, congratulations to WE!" Miller's voice became a little hoarse.
“LPL now leads LCK 2-0, WE are awesome!”
In the event live broadcast room, the barrage filled with words "WE Awesome" completely covered the live broadcast screen.
Game scene, backstage.
Cheers continued to ring out in the LPL lounge, and the atmosphere was extremely jubilant.
In the LCK lounge, there was a dead silence.
LCK is now trailing LPL by a score of 0 to 2.
The first two games of the intercontinental finals were like two sap blows, hitting these arrogant Koreans hard.
For these Koreans, they all agree that the overall strength of the LCK division is far stronger than that of the LPL.
The intercontinental competition system is even more conducive to competition regions with stronger overall strength.
So much so that before the start of the intercontinental competition, a Korean commentator said:
"If you can't win the championship, then swim back!"
