There are still a few people who are more cautious and can stay sober, but most people's emotions have been aroused and they are thinking about what will happen after winning the championship.
Although it is only the MSI championship, the LPL has only had one MSI championship in the past few years, so the MSI championship is very precious to the LPL division.
Chen Yiqiu suddenly remembered something. He chose to enter the LCK forum to see what LCK fans were discussing.
After entering, Chen Yiqiu found that the comments here were also quite interesting:
[Righteousness is so thin that the enemy is greedy for profit, and he vows to clean up the family in a series of fierce battles! 】
There is also a picture below, which is a set photo of Chen Yiqiu, Lee Sang Hyuk, and Xiao Peanut taken when they were in SKT. It is obvious that the three of them have now become the villains and are the targets to be cleaned up.
【Kill them all, leaving no one behind! 】
【I announce that starting from today, LOL will enter the KZ era! 】
【KZ, the king of the new era, the founder of LCK Dynasty 2.0! 】
【After calculation by the national supercomputer, KZ’s winning chance today reached 99.65321%. 】
[After today’s game, I want to see the three traitors of SKT crying bitterly. 】
【But I heard that it was Pei Junzhi who left first, and the club itself did not want to keep them. 】
There are still some sensible people here, but the atmosphere has reached this point, and individual rational voices cannot have any impact.
Now everyone is in the mood and just want to make things bigger. The bigger the better.
On the other side, KZ is suffering from huge public pressure from the LCK division.
Coach Sin has received a lot of calls, all from LCK related parties, with only one purpose, which is to know whether KZ can win Taobao now.
Sin can only make various guarantees: "It's okay, our KZ is very well prepared this time."
"We already know how to deal with Taobo and have mastered Taobo's weaknesses. "
"Before... we didn't play in the group stage before, because we were hiding our tactics."
"No, how could it be possible? Ichizo wouldn't have been able to hide in S9. , don’t worry.”
After answering a few calls, Sin was already sweating profusely.
Although he did feel that he had found Tao Bo's weakness, there was no 100% chance of winning, it was impossible.
So he is under a lot of pressure, success or failure depends on this!
If they win, then they will be the new king team of LCK, but if they lose, all the promises will now turn into boomerangs.
Sin looked at the KZ players: "You also know the current situation. We must win this BO5, there is no way out!"
Everyone in KZ nodded, and Rascal said: "Reaper's status today is inseparable from the cultivation of our LCK, but he chose to go to the LPL to play games, and he also turned over SKT's midfielder. This is a situation. This is an act of betrayal, today we have to clean up the house!”
Seeing Rascal being so confident, others felt relieved. After all, Taobo’s biggest threat now is on the road!
On the other side of the MSI commentary box, Wang Duoduo, Guan Zeyuan and Miller were ready.
Before the live broadcast started, the three of them were discussing the time of the live broadcast.
Miller asked: "Two of you, who do you support today? Who do you think is more likely to win?"
Wang Duoduo was the first to speak: "I think Taobo must be stronger overall. They have never lost a game until now. Brother Guan, what do you think?"
Guan Zeyuan touched it after hearing this. He touched his chin, thinking about it, and then said: "I think it's true The difference in strength is not big. Generally speaking, Taobo is stronger.”
Hearing this, Miller felt something was wrong. Generally speaking, if there are three commentators, they cannot all support the same team. It's boring, I need to act as a rival.
But now that Guan Zeyuan and Wang Duoduo have expressed their opinions, it seems that they can only let him play, but he really does not want to side with the LCK team. After all, he is a Wolf Warrior.
Miller gave Wang Duoduo a look, and Wang Duoduo understood instantly.
Miller said: "Brother Guan, I think there is something wrong with your judgment this time. Think about it. Now KZ are young players and very strong. Moreover, according to my intelligence, they hid something in the group stage. , prepare to take it out in the knockout round, and if you take it out, you are very sure to win."
"Is there such a thing? Where did you get the gossip?" Guan Zeyuan seemed a little doubtful.
Miller patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Brother Guan, will I lie to you? I won't tell anyone else except you."
Wang Duoduo was originally here Listening, he immediately turned his head and pretended to communicate with the staff next to him, as if he didn't hear what Miller said.
At this moment, the director signaled the three of them to get ready and the live broadcast was about to begin.
The three of them put away their expressions and sat upright. After the live broadcast started, Guan Zeyuan was the first to speak:
"The upcoming finals of the 2018 League of Legends Mid-Season Championship Invitational Tournament will be hosted by the emerging king from the LPL region. Bo versus KZ, the new king from the LCK division!”
The three of them finished their opening remarks in one sentence and then entered the voting stage.
Wang Duoduo spoke first: "Taobo won the group stage and advanced, while KZ lost three games in the group stage. Judging from the record, Taobo's overall strength is indeed much stronger. I personally compare Support Taobo.”
Wang Duoduo said as he picked up a sign from the table with Taobo’s team logo on it.
This is the host voting session, and Wang Duoduo voted for Taobo.
It's Miller's turn: "In terms of record, Taobo is indeed more beautiful, but having said that, record is only one aspect. Anything can happen on the field. We cannot use a static and one-sided perspective. Looking at all this, so I made my choice..."
Miller also held up a sign, and finally Guan Zeyuan, Seeing what Miller said, Guan Zeyuan knew what was going on and said:
"I also think that anything can happen on the field. We can't apply the previous records and encounters to the current situation, so Like Miller, I also support KZ.”
Guan Zeyuan held up KZ’s sign, and all three commentators finished voting.
However, when the voting results were displayed on the screen, Guan Zeyuan was stunned. He thought he had made a mistake and stared at it several times before confirming that Miller voted for Taobo instead of KZ!
Miller said the same thing, but he actually held up the Taobo sign!
"Huh? No?" Guan Zeyuan was completely embarrassed.
At the same time, in the official live broadcast room, the barrage expressed their love for Guan Zeyuan:
[I knew Guan Zeyuan would vote like this, there are still many good people. 】
[Guan Zeyuan is really worried about winning the second MSI championship in LPL. 】
【We can see that he is speaking without conscience. We will remember Guan Zeyuan's sacrifice! 】
【Guan Zeyuan’s support for KZ is an honor for all Taobo fans. 】
【Now the KZ player’s keyboard has begun to leak milk, which is a bit hard to resist! 】
【Can Zeyuan die? Go and support Taobo, okay? 】
In view of Guan Zeyuan's dark history, Taobo fans like this result very much, as long as Guan Zeyuan supports KZ.
As for KZ fans, they have no other choice but to be anxious now. At this moment, at the competition site, the players from both sides appeared on the stage at the invitation of the host!
KZ is the first to appear!
The five KZ players appeared on the stage, and the audience cheered wildly:
"KZ! KZ! KZ!"
"The king of LCK!"
"The old king is dead, and the new king shall stand!"
"From today on, LCK Surname K!”
Many LCK fans want to take this opportunity to step on SKT’s former midfielder and jungler.
Although Chen Yiqiu brought the midfielder and jungler to the LPL, their influence in the LCK is huge.
Even though SKT was defeated by KZ in the Spring Split, in the eyes of LCK fans, the current SKT cannot represent the real SKT.
If KZ cannot win Taobo, they have no chance to take over SKT's influence in the LCK.
The director gave a close-up of the expressions of the five members of KZ. All five of them looked very confident.
Miller explained: "KZ's players all look very confident. It seems that Brother Guan's judgment is indeed correct."
Hearing this, Guan Zeyuan looked sideways. He was a little annoyed now and felt that he had been cheated.
Originally, he wanted to support Taobo, but because Miller said that KZ is very powerful now, he ran to support KZ. Who would have thought that Miller would go back on his word at the last moment, and he would do so quietly. That kind of thing, it’s hard to ask now. Now that you’ve made a choice, you can only go ahead and go ahead.
Suddenly, the audience became excited again:
"Taobo! Taobo! Taobo!"
"Chen Sheng, I want to give birth to a monkey for you!"
"Faker! Let them see the difference between Faker and little Faker!"
"Little Peanut, I only have one request for you, catch me!"
Five people from Taobo stood on the stage above, lined up in a row, accepting the inspection of the audience.
After a brief appearance, the players from both sides came to their respective positions. The equipment had been debugged in advance and they directly entered the BP session of the first game!
Miller explained: "The side selection in this game was decided by tossing a coin. KZ had the priority to choose. They chose the red side, and Taobo was on the blue side."
< br>
Wang Duoduo answered: "KZ chose the red side probably for the counter position on the fifth floor. They are probably planning to hit the middle and upper jungle. The strength of KZ's two single lines is very good, and the jungler's GANK ability is very good." Strong, if there is a hero advantage in the middle and upper jungle, we should be able to compete with Taobo's middle and upper jungle."
Guan Zeyuan explained: "Both sides are banning people, and Taobo is targeting the jungle and bottom lane. ,B AN dropped Rek'Sai, Rakan and Tahm."
"Then came KZ. KZ chose to target the top lane position, and BAN dropped Qinggang Shadow, Vampire and Lucian. Although Lucian is a shooter, But we all know that Chen Sheng can play the top lane, so it is generally believed that BAN Lucian is targeted at the top lane. "
Entering the selection stage, the blue Fang Taobo locked the Niutou on the first floor.
It was KZ's turn to choose. KZ got Karma and Big Mouth on the first and second floors.
As soon as Big Mouth was selected, Hongmi felt something was wrong, because Big Mouth was not a strong laning hero, so he chose to take it out so early. There must be something wrong with it.
Miller analyzed: "I originally thought that KZ was going to play midfielder, but they suddenly chose a big mouth in the bottom lane. This is a bit strange. If you choose a big mouth in the bottom lane, you must protect it. Then there is no way to focus on the midfielder."
Wang Duoduo muttered: "Maybe this is a smoke bomb that makes Taobo unclear about what they are going to do. From this perspective, this smoke bomb is actually quite good. success Yes, now it depends on how Taobo chooses.”
“Taobo got Kai’Sa and Shen on the second and third floors. If the opponent is Big Mouth, Kai’Sa can indeed take the lane without too much pressure. , but is this Shen the top laner? I don’t think it’s possible, Chen Sheng shouldn’t choose this kind of hero.”
BP is still going on, KZ locked Spider and Braum on the third and fourth floors. , now only the top lane position has not been released.
It was Taobo's turn to choose, and Taobo got Xin Zhao and Yasuo on the fourth and fifth floors.
The moment Yasuo was selected, the audience became excited:
“Here it comes! Yasuo, Chen Sheng’s Yasuo!”
“Here it comes, The Demon King's Yasuo! "
"Isn't that right? Is this Yasuo on the road? Then which way should Niutou and Shen go? "
"Here, what the hell did Taobo choose for his lineup? Why can't I understand?"
Everyone was very excited to see Yasuo, but suddenly they found that this lineup was weird, and everyone was confused. It won’t happen anymore.
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan muttered: "Taobo's lineup...where will Yasuo go? If Niutou is the support, then he can only be careful in the top lane, Yasuo in the middle, and Chen Holy Wan Shen? I feel like he is a talented person. Xiaoyong, to put it harshly, Shen is a bastard hero who messes up the situation."
Miller agreed: "Shen is indeed not suitable for Chen Sheng, but he can't be top laner Yasuo or mid laner Shen. Well, the big devil is not suitable for this game either. The hero is still in the middle. The most important thing is that I found that Taobo's lineup is very lacking in AP damage. This one feels far away!"
Wang Duoduo answered: "The KZ on the red side in the end. Locked in the captain, this is indeed a good choice. The captain is easy to play against Yasuo, and Shen can at least develop against the lane. He and Shen develop together, so it is definitely his profit. I feel that Taobo is completely defeated in terms of BP. Exploded.”
Although the ten heroes of both sides have been determined, Taobo's lineup still needs to be adjusted, so everyone is waiting for a result.
The countdown has entered the last twenty seconds, and the lineups of both sides are completely determined:
Blue side Taobo: top laner Niutou, jungler Xin Zhao, mid laner Yasuo, ADC Kai'Sa , assist Shen
Red KZ: top laner Captain, jungle spider, mid laner Karma, ADC Big Mouth, assistant Braum
Seeing this lineup, the barrage in the official live broadcast room Explosion:
【Ha ha ha ha! This time Guan Zeyuan is not a poisonous naughty child, he is serious, and he really got it right! 】
【A garbage lineup like Taobo will take the lead against KZ? Just order it. 】
【If Hongmi doesn’t know how to BP, just change someone else. Can this kind of lineup be selected by people? 】
【I asked my grandma to randomly choose five heroes, and they were better than this lineup. 】
【What exactly is the top order bull head? Was there any mistake? 】
[Sent, this one has been sent, brothers, I don’t dare to read it. 】
Now LPL fans are very desperate, while LCK fans have already opened the champagne in advance.
Others would open the champagne at halftime, but now they open the champagne before the game even starts, highlighting their optimism.
After all, LCK spent a lot of money on promotion and created an invincible image for KZ.
The director's footage was shown to KZ, and everyone in KZ was very optimistic and confident of winning.
But what's outrageous is that when the director's camera showed Tao Bo, it was discovered that the five members of Tao Bo were also confident of winning. It seemed that both parties felt that they were sure to win. (End of this chapter)
