Chapter 169 Chen Yiqiu: Let’s do it together
“Destroy everything and be as powerful as a tiger. Congratulations to SKT for getting a good start in their S6 global finals.”
“Very exciting. The game, as Bttdol said, and it's rude to say it, but... it was more of a Jace carnage show"
" San Francisco Bill Greer. Tomb Civic Auditorium, scene.
Amid congratulations and emotions from major competition areas around the world, everyone in SKT walked out of the competition room.
Among them, Chen Yiqiu, who was dressed in red and had silver hair, was extremely eye-catching. Feeling the feeling of being on the S competition stage for the first time, the atmosphere was explosive, and everyone walked into the IM competition room to shake hands.
AJ Athena Golden Horn, these 'star players' who have become famous in the LPL this year, were beaten so hard that their faces were all red and warm, their eyes were quite misty, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
When Chen Yiqiu shook hands with AJ, who was not very familiar with him, his hands were wet with sweat.
"Hello...Hello..."
AJ stammered and laughed extremely unnaturally.
Chen Yiqiu was a little surprised, nodded, turned and walked out of the competition room.
"Huh..."
AJ let out a long breath and felt like he had a splitting headache. He felt as if he had been tortured thousands of times, desperate, helpless, and confused.
Yes, in a group match that lasted less than 25 minutes, he actually had a problem with his mentality after being beaten.
Reaper...is it really that strong?
Is there such a big gap between our top laner in the LPL and him?
Or is it not us, but ‘me’, and I am just too naive?
AJ didn’t know, but in a subsequent media interview, he expressed his feelings about facing Chen Yiqiu for the first time: “The ultimate suppression, the suffocating intensity of the line, it felt like we were not playing against a human being. ”
Causing an uproar, he was accused by countless Wolf Warrior viewers during the S game, saying that he had given up his horse for the sake of traffic, and was licking Chen Yiqiu like this.
Of course, these are all things for later.
At this moment, the five members of SKT finished bowing on the stage, leaving a beautiful scenery in the camera, and turned back to the backstage lounge.
They only had one match on the schedule today, but since there were post-match interviews and team matches in the same group, they decided to stay and see more.
“Nice.”
“Good fight.”
"Thank you for your hard work."
Backstage, with daily greetings, everyone in SKT began to review the last game.
However, because IM’s tactics are too simple and their cracking methods are simple and crude, there is really nothing to study.
Soon after, the MVP selection for this game was announced.
The red-clothed and silver-haired Reaper appeared in front of the world's audience. Fighting to the end, Jace, who was already 6/0/5, was worthy of being named MVP.
Well deserved.
"Congratulations, Yiqiu, you won the first MVP of the S game."
Pei Junzhi gave a rather sour congratulations.
"Yes, unlike our Junzhi 'brother', we only have girlfriends and no MVPs."
Li Zaiwan answered immediately. Pei Junzhi didn't notice the yin and yang in his tone, and his face immediately changed. Ban: "Zai Wan, I'm sorry if I'm not my brother, Yi Qiu is already sad, why do you insist on exposing others' scars?"
"Don't he know that Sang Hyuk and I have a girlfriend? Doesn't he know that coach Kkoma is already in a relationship?"
"He knows, he just doesn't want to say that he wants to stick to the rules of our team. Tradition.”
< br>After saying that, Pei Junzhi looked at Chen Yiqiu seriously: "Yiqiu, you are a great man."
Chen Yiqiu: "?"
Okay, okay, you have a wife and forget about your brother, right? Forget Who introduced you to Park Ji Sun?
"Sang Hyuk, you can figure it out."
Chen Yiqiu spread his hands. He didn't care about this, but Lee Sang Hyuk, who was still in the 'embryonic' stage at this moment, was very concerned about such words reaching the host hosted by Eun Jung. in the ears.
"Junzhi, the ground seems not very clean. Do you want me to clean it myself?"
As expected, Lee Sang Hyuk is a well-deserved carry player both on and off the court. .
Pei Junzhi was immediately defeated and raised his hands to express that he was wrong and would never say such things in the future.
In this way, Kkoma watched them laughing and joking for a while, and then the post-match interview notice came.
Lee Sang Hyuk was invited to the North American Division, and Chen Yiqiu received an invitation to the LPL Division.
He was not surprised by this.
The LPL region’s attitude towards itself should be divided into three stages.
At first this year’s Spring Split was lukewarm, and secretly fueling the flames was the first stage.
After MSI, realizing Reaper’s ‘potential’ was the second stage.
Today is the third stage.
Well, starting from today, Chen Yiqiu's performance in the S competition will directly determine the attitude of the capital bosses behind him in the LPL, and even in all competition regions around the world.
That’s how confident you are.
All the way to the LPL interview booth, as expected, it was still Yu Shuang, an old acquaintance.
But compared to her youthful appearance half a year ago, Aunt Yu Shuang has finally found her own style. Wearing a figure-flattering jasmine cheongsam, she is showing signs of being able to endure sex.
When it comes to next year’s S7, it should become the master of the classic ‘Auntie Blue and White Porcelain’.
"Congratulations, you played very well in your debut in the S game."
Seeing each other again, Yu Shuang felt quite complicated, especially since she had just witnessed the whole match between SKT and IM. Contest.
Coupled with EDG's upset today, I can say that I feel very depressed, but at the same time, I have an inexplicable feeling for Chen Yiqiu.
How can this person be better than he was during MSI?
Shouldn’t players from the LPL stretch their hips as soon as they get to the S game?
With the mood of exploring 'metaphysics', Yu Shuang asked the first question: "This is your first S game. How do you feel now that you have won the game?"
"I thought about winning in advance, so I was relatively calm."
Chen Yiqiu's answer was beyond everyone's expectations.
Yu Shuang seemed to sense the deep confidence in his tone.
“...We saw that today you once again played Jess, which produced very good results. You achieved a lot of suppression in the early game, including the opponent AJ, who I highly recommend you Jayce."
"What do you think of him?"
"AJ is a good top laner, but my style is more offensive. ”
Chen Yiqiu replied with high emotional intelligence.
Yu Shuang nodded and asked with a smile: "Speaking of style, in the 6.18 version of this year's World Championship, it seems that there are many top lane heroes who have not appeared before. Kennen and Sword Princess in the first two games, including you Jess, do you think this will become the 'general trend' in this year's S competition? ?"
Chen Yiqiu nodded affirmatively: "The top lane position will undoubtedly be strengthened in this year's World Championship. I think this is beyond doubt."
"Then you...will also get it. Strengthen it?”
Yu Shuang couldn’t help but ask.
“I feel that I have always been strong, until now.”
"Wow..."
Crash.
The audience burst into applause and screams.
Yu Shuang looked at Chen Yiqiu, who was dressed in red and had silver hair, and felt the change in his momentum at this moment.
Reaper during the MSI period was a strong midfielder with a fledgling 'greenness', and he was always very 'steady' in his speech. After polishing in the summer games, half a year later, he is now in the S game. The early and mid-term versions of Riot Games have truly grown into the world's top top laner and star player.
——This year’s S game seems to have become his home court, his stage.
Inexplicably, this idea suddenly appeared in many people's minds.
I wonder if it will become a reality.
After saying a few words briefly, Yu Shuang asked the last question, which was also a very explosive question: "Before the start of this year's S competition, top laners from all major competitions around the world seem to want to meet you. ”
“They want to defeat you and prove themselves. Do you have anything to say to these ‘opponents’? ”
Chen Yiqiu: "Today's game has told everyone the answer..."
"Ahhhh!!"
"No, Chen Sheng! Don't be so shameless, I'm going to break the defense!" "
" Woohoo, Reaper, come back, my General Chen! "
Before he finished speaking, the audience was already in a state of excitement, with some screaming and some cheering. In other words, there are more program effects.
When the voice stopped, Chen Yiqiu continued: "I hope they can be stronger, and I also hope they can compete with all the best top laners in the world. The stronger they are, the more excited I will be."
Translation Come here: smelly fish and rotten shrimp, come together.
There was an uproar, and before leaving the court, the top laners of the major teams in the background fell silent when they saw this scene.
They thought of AJ in the last game. Before the start of the S game, it was he who made the first shot of ‘wanting to educate Reaper’.
"Well...I don't think it's necessary. We are all friendly and buddies."
"Indeed, we are not in the same group anyway." "Haha, G2 is starting to tremble now."
While talking, everyone in G2 who is in the same group as SKT and will meet tomorrow is full of satisfaction. His face was dull, indicating that it was not me who said that on Twitter, but our official promotion who took the initiative to say so.
What does G2’s official promotion have to do with me, G2?
Of course, all kidding aside, who among those who can advance to the S competition is not a genius, and who doesn’t want to prove himself?
Chen Yiqiu's words "I can hit ten" still aroused everyone's desire to win.
That night, major media forums around the world were talking about "Shock!" challenge accepted! Reaper said directly: I can fight ten, let’s do it together! 》 topic.
In the anti-bar.
【This time I stand with Chen Sheng! What the hell are G2 and other top laners? Dare to bark? 】
【AJ’s today is their tomorrow. 】
[Although I am very unhappy that Repaer beat IM like this today, but really speaking, Chen Sheng is Chinese, so supporting Chen Sheng is equal to being patriotic. Is there nothing wrong with that? 】
【One thing to say, judging from the situation of top laners this year, if Chen Sheng does not give up his position, all top laners in the world will be princes! 】
【Arrogant S6, okay, besides Smeb and CuVee, at most add Looper, Damu, who else can give it a try? 】
【Don’t brag about Smeb, it’s just a toy captured by Chen ShengN. He is the real Chen Yi'er! 】
【Suddenly I was scared, the leaders still like to open champagne at halftime. I thought, I just played an IM in the group stage, now I am number one in the world? 】
[What’s outrageous is that Reaper seems to think so too. To be honest, I don’t really like how crazy he is. 】
[…]
The S-match is the most topical and popular event. Today, on the first day of the group stage, a ‘big event’ with great influence occurred.
For example, the Brazilian holy monk kicked EDG, AJ was beaten to the point of kneeling and licked, and ANX first showed its talents.
It continued even a few years later, and it is still an enduring topic and is a topic often discussed by everyone.
In this way, the next day, everyone from SKT once again stepped into the Bill Graham Municipal Auditorium in San Francisco.
The second day of the S6 group stage, October 1st, is National Day.
SKT’s schedule is in the third game today, but they still came very early.
The opening ceremony is over, and the first game is RNG, the only one that "regained face" for the LPL division yesterday, against Samsung.
Today’s opening can be said to be the match of the century. It attracted a lot of attention. Countless spectators and fans in China who usually like to stay in bed got up after four o’clock and watched the game on their mobile phones.
In this game, RNG truly lived up to its reputation as the ‘LPL Hero’ and fought fiercely with Samsung for nearly 40 minutes.
During this period, a large number of highlights were contributed, such as Anzhangmen’s explosive rhythm of Scorpion, CuVee’s classic Kainan Tianlei, and Chi Emperor Jin’s first appearance.
Then... RNG lost to Samsung, slightly disappointing all the viewers who expected the LPL division to defeat the LCK division.
Then, in the second game, EDG played against AHQ. Bearing the 'humiliation' of yesterday, EDG regained their form today. They played well in the early stage, but in the middle and late stages, the director seemed to feel that the game was missing a little bit of entertainment. Effect.
In Chen Yiqiu's expectant eyes, the men and horses were chased and slashed by Olaf at the Xiaolong Pit. In desperation, he used his ultimate move and bumped into Han Bing's ultimate move.
"A horse steps on a flying arrow!!"
Chen Yiqiu witnessed history on the spot and was moved by the greatest operation in the history of professional comedians, which can be followed by Ming Kai for his whole life.
"Hahaha, today's fun is even more outrageous than yesterday. What's going on with these men and horses? Why are they taking the initiative to open up and catch arrows?"
The EDG game starts next to me, watching Chen Yiqiu. In this state, Bae Junzhi, who guessed that he might have fun, was already laughing so much that he slapped the table.
“…I’m too nervous.”
Lee Sang Hyuk briefly commented.
Then he no longer pays attention to these. He is not interested in the transformation from a star to a comedian. He is focused on today's game.
Now that the second game is over, it is their turn to play.
Ten minutes later, everyone in SKT was notified and walked onto the stage.
……
"Narrow win, narrow win. Although EDG had some problems in the middle and late stages, they played very well in the early stage."
"Yes, but we must hurry up, EDG. Today is already the second day of the group stage. Tomorrow is the last day of the first round of the group stage. If it is still like this, qualifying will be really dangerous..."
LPL commentary booth.
Today’s commentators are Wawa Guan Zeyuan and Rita.
The three briefly discussed the last EDG game.
AHQ was recognized as the son of EDG before the game, and it would 100% crush the victory, but the result was such a bumpy victory.
This inevitably makes many LPL commentators feel terrified.
Fortunately, I won the game anyway, and I could barely save my face from yesterday.
As for the team that will appear next, how can it be considered a ‘half LPL team’?
“SKT’s game against G2 is finally here.”
The doll smiled and said: "Since yesterday, for reasons that everyone knows... haha, I won't say more, so today everyone is looking forward to this showdown."
"That's right."
Guan Zeyuan said: "Reaper claims that he expects his opponent to be stronger next time, but I don't know today. Will G2 and Kikis make him 'satisfied'?"
"To be honest, there is no doubt about Reaper's strength, especially in this kind of competition, he can say this in his first year in the S competition. , I can only say that I am really confident.”
The baby nodded, the director’s camera switched, and BP started.
In this game, SKT is on the blue side and G2 is on the red side.
As soon as they came up, G2 banned Jess. Obviously, the tragic situation of IM yesterday was still vivid in their minds. Although they wanted to prove themselves today, Jess could never be let go.
In addition to Jace, after thinking for a while, he also sent the Sword Lady to the ban position, and the remaining one was given to Ike.
The third ban top laner is extremely rare and shocking in other teams, but it is not surprising here in SKT.
SKT specifically eliminated Dashu, Poppy, and Jhin.
When it came to the selection stage, without any surprise, SKT locked Ryze.
"God King or Demon King?"
Seeing this, the audience was in an uproar. Guan Zeyuan also took a breath: "Ryze was not banned, so I guessed that SKT would definitely take it. "
"In fact, in this version, Ryze is no longer suitable for the top lane, but if the team name is changed to SKT, I think there is a high probability that it will be the top lane."
"There is also a mid lane. Possibly.”
"This is the scary thing about SKT. Their mid-level and upper level can be called a sea of heroes. Not only are they not afraid of you targeting them, they can also sway at any time. Facing this SKT, many coaches should have a headache."
Everyone was discussing, G2, however, was already mentally prepared for SKT to choose Ryze. They didn't show too much emotion. They got ADEZ first, and then the mid laner Fan Ma.
SKT immediately targeted the jungle excavator and AD Lucian.
G2 takes jungler Olaf again.
“Both sides are currently taking the most popular heroes from yesterday and today, and G2 has not yet decided on the top laner, but they chose Fan Ma.”
Guan Zeyuan analyzed: "In this way, G2 has determined its mid lane first...will it be swayed by SKT?"
"Fan Mom is a very versatile hero, and she has a strong version. , I think this choice is very good, and I am not afraid of SKT’s swing at all.”
The baby shook his head and approved of G2’s selection.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
Mom Fan is not afraid of Ryze. On the contrary, if this version is really encountered, it will have some advantages.
And if Ryze goes on the road, G2 also has countermeasures.
“Choose Gnar.”
In the second round, G2 decided to go on the road and still choose a strong version + Tiger Balm.
This is the BP strategy they discussed yesterday against SKT, which is to pick a hero that is very comprehensive, has a strong version, and is not weak in the early stage.
Just in time, it’s all released today.
G2 chose Gnar on the road, and when SKT made the final move, the answer everyone had been waiting for was finally revealed.
——"Execute the Order of Balance."
Eye of Twilight, be careful.
"Hmm."
"Shen... This is a good choice. Again, this is a hero that Reaper rarely uses, but it has a high appearance rate in the past two days."
< br>
Roaring Emperor nodded upon seeing this, and then looked at SKT's confirmed lineup: "Looking at it this way, T1's lineup for this game... should have something to say. They chose a lineup similar to the original support flow."
< br>On the field, G2 decided on the final support of Niutou, and the lineups of both sides were settled.
They are:
SKT: top laner Shen, jungler Digger, mid laner Ryze, bottom lane Lucian + Tahm.
G2: Top laner Gnar, jungler Olaf, mid laner Fan Mom, bottom lane EZ + Niutou.
Entering the Summoner's Rift, cheers and cheers from the two teams came from the audience, and they were evenly matched.
