The last game of the second half, igvsafs!
This game is also considered by everyone to be the most suspenseful game.
The players on both sides are about the same strength...
Therefore, it should not be easy to determine the winner when these two teams fight against each other.
It will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers.
The course of the competition was beyond everyone's expectations.
ig... seems to be stronger than everyone imagined!
Contributed to the third crushing game of the semi-finals!
afs is no match for ig, and they can crush them in all positions.
AFS was sent away directly in three games.
This surprised everyone to find that the gap between the top eight was actually so terrifying.
Especially since lpl has actually improved to this extent.
There are actually two semi-finals, which is really beyond everyone's imagination.
There is also a saying in China that because of the emergence of the DG team, the competitive level of the league has directly risen to a higher level.
Because of this, the performance of all teams in the global finals was so outstanding.
Of course... rng, who was eliminated in the quarterfinals, has been expelled by fans.
This team can actually lose to Omei Laobi and throw away all the results they achieved before. It is really a shame and a big humiliation.
But it’s slightly better than last year’s edg...
edg set a record and lost to a wild card team. No team can surpass it yet. I just don’t know if there will be any more Vietnamese prisoners in the future.
However, as the results of this last game came out, the four teams that advanced to the semi-finals were finally determined.
The first half matchup c9vskt.
The lower half is the lpl civil war... everyone still sighs at this moment.
If rng hadn't been weak, there would have been a chance to see the two teams meet in the finals.
But based on this performance, even if they can advance, they will definitely not be able to pass the level of kt.
Judging from this half of the area, LPL is indeed very loud this year.
Directly ruled the League of Legends...
In addition, the European division was also very surprised. They did not expect that g2 could advance to the semi-finals.
And the third seed made it through the play-in rounds.
The most gratifying thing is that there is no such a strong team in the North American division.
After all, both regions are LCS regions, but for the sake of quota, they are now divided into North America and Europe.
But no matter how you say it, it has passed the test of market economy and belongs to the competition area.
I have made special efforts and spent a lot of money to sign many lck players...
There is a saying that the lck league is indeed the division that sends the most foreign players.
Mainly due to their e-sports training mechanism.
The reason is still the industry. E-sports is the mainstay of South Korea's economy. Once it fails, the country will collapse. It is precisely because of these reasons that as long as the game project has a great response and high influence, a system can be quickly formed.
After achieving results, you can start sending players outside.
This economic benefit is very considerable.
Even during that period of 15 years, there was news in North America that Faker would be bought for 50 million yuan.
But this is most likely false...
Of course, there must have been an invitation, but in the end it didn't come to an agreement.
Of course, these have nothing to do with the teams that advanced to the finals.
They seized this little time and started the final stage of crazy training!
After all, we have reached the semi-finals, and we only need to take two more steps to win the global finals championship trophy.
Even ig...
When Ah Shui was interviewed after winning the game, he was actually a little silent when he faced the camera and said his speech.
Only at the end did he say the words that made countless dogs cry...
We have lost too many games to dg. I don’t know if we will win in the semifinals. We will win, right?
It would be too sad to say this.
Even for DG fans to let ig win at this moment is not something difficult to accept.
Just for a moment of course, and then immediately feeling sorry for the moment.
What are you thinking about?
How can this be done?
DG's goal in this global finals is to win the championship and win the first championship for lpl.
The main reason is that ig's winning rate is still a little lower when facing kt. It gives the impression that the strength gap between the two sides is not big, but they can't win no matter how they fight.
The main thing is ig's performance in the group stage, which gives people this impression.
Although they were opponents in the semi-finals, dg and ig also communicated a lot during this period and arranged training matches with each other.
Of course, there is no need to conduct high-intensity training matches during this period.
Mainly focused on tactical research.
tabe also specifically analyzed the recent status of the ig players.
There are indeed some things that are not easy to mess with.
As the global finals progress, the ig team's status becomes more and more explosive.
It's obvious that these five players are big-game players.
Therefore, in this semi-final, we must be more vigilant to avoid problems.
In the remaining free time, I was also studying kt.
The Kt team has a high probability of being the team they will encounter in the finals.
The possibility of rollover is not high.
You still have to take some time to study it carefully.
In any case, this team is a formed Galaxy team.
After being immersed for a year, I am now the No. 1 seed, and I still have some strength and preparation.
Coupled with the status of the players and the change of version, although it seems that dg is very suitable, kt is actually suitable for the same.
Also the favorite to win the championship.
Have to be on guard!
Tabe will naturally take some spare time to observe the ranking of this team.
Of course, ranking is sometimes also a type of tactic.
Some people will specifically change their accounts and let others use their own accounts. In this way, some heroes who have never been used will appear in the ranking records.
This leads to wrong analysis, and it feels like this hero will be used as a killer move in the next game, and will be targeted everywhere or even banned.
And some people go to practice specifically. When you think it is fake, you will take it out suddenly and punch hard.
I can't tell the difference between reality and fiction...
And the best way for most people to deal with uncertainty is to ban.
Therefore, many coaches also like to bet that you don't know this hero and you won't be able to use it during the game.
Just like the previous rng, when they saw top laner Lucian, they didn't take it too seriously.
I think it's fake, there's no such thing.
Just play around with heroes in ranked to relax.
So as soon as this hero was released, he suffered a big loss and was killed by Lu Ming's Lucian.
Of course, what exactly these will be depends on the coach’s experience and analysis... Even if they are fully prepared, as the game approaches, the players begin to become less and less calm.
The main reason is that everyone really has never experienced the global finals.
Even at his peak, Wei Shen was eliminated in the group stage...
It was with so many emotions, and the fact that the boss actually led the team to watch the training matches every day, and it was obvious that a round of supervision had begun, that there was some pressure on the next game.
What if the results are not good, and you fail to advance to the finals and fail to win the global finals championship...
So what can we do?
After all, the boss paid a big price, and the benefits from winning the championship far exceeded everyone's imagination.
So if you lose the game, doesn't it affect the boss's income?
How is it possible that there is still good fruit to eat?
This kind of headache should be avoided as much as possible so that it does not happen again.
Lu Ming was very aware of some changes in the mentality of the team members.
"How many times have we played in the finals? Are the global finals really different? In fact, there is not much difference. Aren't the opponents just old opponents?"
"So it should be ig and the others who are nervous. What's there to be afraid of? Maybe they already have a headache at this time and don't know how to deal with it."
Lu Ming is still relatively calm and carries out his own training every day to practice heroes and maintain the best condition.
Recently, He Chaoxin's mission has been triggered very frequently, and before he knew it, various attributes had achieved breakthroughs.
It has successfully crossed the ninety mark.
In this case, it takes a little practice to control the hero more skillfully.
Unknowingly, Lu Ming has turned from a player who needs hard work into a truly talented player, and naturally wants to further expand his hero pool.
You can consider using any hero as a top laner, but that sentence doesn’t mean it can’t be used.
As long as the opposing lineup gives this opportunity.
After listening to Lu Ming's words, not to mention these people really calmed down a lot.
No matter how you put it, the core of the team is the top laner. If you don't panic on the road, why should they panic?
And you're right, isn't ig an old-faced team?
Why is this so stressful?
The main thing is the mentality. As long as the mentality is adjusted, it will be fine. There will be no pressure when playing the game.
Tabe was originally very nervous. So many small problems occurred before the game officially started. This is really a troublesome thing.
I originally thought that opening one would give everyone some relief, but now after this, it is no longer necessary.
But at this time, he said something that would have the opposite effect and increase the pressure on the players, so it was better to just leave it like this.
Sure enough, Brother Koi is trustworthy at critical moments.
Such a player, he was indeed right.
But Lu Ming was really right. IG was even more panicked than DG.
After all, I haven't beaten dg this year, so I am mentally at a disadvantage.
I really don’t have much confidence. In this case, I have to collide with dg in the semi-finals...
You can imagine how much pressure there is now.
The first round of the semi-finals begins with the bottom half.
dgvsig!
directly attracted global attention.
Even these Koreans can't sit still.
Bought tickets to watch this game.
I want to take a look at what the biggest competitors are in advance.
Even if I have seen it before, maybe with their blessing this time, ig can win the game?
As long as DG can be eliminated, isn't the championship already in the bag?
kt's solution to ig... is like a grandfather bullying his grandson, it couldn't be easier.
The weather in Seoul is not very hot today.
But in this crowded venue, the young ladies were dressed very coolly.
This is a feast for the eyes of some old friends, who can enjoy the coolness from summer in advance.
"Welcome to the semi-finals of the 2018 League of Legends World Championship, I am the commentator doll."
"I'm Miller, the commentator."
"I am the commentator Rita."
"For today's game, I believe everyone... the expectations are high, but the choice of the winner is still a bit confusing, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh!"
"Yes... while we are happy that the two teams dg and ig have successfully advanced to the semi-finals, we must be prepared to face this moment."
Doll Miller and Doll Miller were both talking with a bit of sadness.
It would be great if they were in the upper and lower halves, then there would really be a chance for a collision in the finals.
After successfully completing the reunion, it was considered revenge for last year.
The s7 global finals held in the Bird's Nest in China ended up with two Korean teams meeting at the Bird's Nest. To be honest, it was really a bit embarrassing.
And the Bird's Nest has a special meaning in everyone's heart.
Having witnessed the success of the 2008 Olympic Games, this failure is really a shame.
However, this year's rng was not strong enough, so this idea was dashed.
But as long as we can win the championship, it's not unacceptable.
Winning the championship at their home court is a return to this place.
"What do you think of today's game?"
"Well, IG's Revenge Proof Battle. Ah Shui said in a previous interview that he has not won any previous games and wants to win this one in the semi-finals..."
"If we can win, we will win back all those we lost before."
What he said was indeed correct.
This is the global finals. If you win and advance to the finals, you can hope to win the championship. But being the first domestic champion is of great significance.
If dg loses, then the previous wins are meaningless.
No matter how many championships there are, it will still be a shame to be unable to achieve a Grand Slam without the title of Global Finals.
And he will be laughed at crazily by everyone.
It turns out that the previous championship was just because the ig team did not put in its full effort.
Fans will also be ridiculed to death.
It turns out that after winning all the championships, that’s it?
"DG also doesn't want to lose this game. They now hope to set a record..."
"This year, I won the spring championship, mid-season championship, and summer championship. If I can win the global finals championship, it will be a Grand Slam achievement, and I will win it in the same year!"
"For the players, there is a separate championship. Koi brother Sima Laothi and Xiaotian have the Asian Games championship. Just thinking about it is very exaggerated."
Of course, this is talking about winning the championship. If not, it will just add to the joke.
So before that, we still have to win this semi-final.
The three commentators were talking in the commentary box, and the camera swept over the battle box at this moment.
Players from both sides have already begun to debug the equipment, and their expressions are very serious.
After all, this game is a battle of life and death!
Those who win advance to the finals, while those who lose can only leave the final stage...
It is so important that we have to take it seriously.
