Chapter 141 - Fighting LGD, trump card
Yuan Shen, who gained an advantage in the lane, did not blindly pursue laning suppression, but continued to support the jungle. He played the top laner like a mid laner and set the pace of the game in the early stages.
Rookie and Kakao became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and their early rhythm directly suppressed Wei Shen and Taobao Quan.
After just fifteen minutes, the game entered garbage time.
In the 27th minute, IG pushed down LGD's base and got the match point.
Two to zero, this score was enough to make everyone in LGD despair.
Just like OG facing SKT, in the last game, all five LGD players seemed extremely confused and out of shape.
Taobao Quan's Widowmaker played Randolph against the three and a half AP lineup selected by IG.
Wei Shen's Varus also shot an arrow in the opposite direction while guarding the high ground due to shaking hands.
It's back, it's all back!
However, LGD is now ranked among the top four in the world.
Reaching the semi-finals was a success, not to mention that we lost to our own people.
No shame!
"Let us congratulate IG for winning the semi-finals 3-0 and advancing to the finals!!"
"That's right, the finals, here we come again!!"
"This is the third time that LPL has entered the finals. The previous two times we were runner-ups. I hope this year will have a different result."
"It's SKT again, and it's Faker again!"
"In Season 3, Royal Club defeated FNC and advanced to the finals. This year, IG also made it to the finals."
"It may sound unpleasant to say this, but both SKT and IG have maintained an undefeated record. The dominance of these two teams is really too strong!"
"SKT is strong in overall coordination and comprehensive strength, while IG is strong in top lane. In this top lane warrior version, Yuan is really a standout and is far ahead!"
"An undefeated record! These two teams, I really want to know how long their winning streak can last..."
Miller changed the subject.
……
After the interview, the semi-finals officially ended.
Different scenes are played out in various clubs.
There are thousands of different styles.
IG's entry into the finals has little impact on them.
But the popularity was so high that even people outside the circle heard about it, and many popular stars posted on Weibo to cheer for IG.
Principal Wang’s Weibo post in support of IG attracted a lot of likes and attention from people outside the circle.
The influence of the League of Legends World Championship has already spread beyond its circle.
You know, even the WCG back then wasn’t so popular!
The domestic traffic and popularity of various websites make them jealous.
Gree's vigorous publicity before the game received unexpected rewards at this moment.
The e-sports traffic cake is really about to explode!
While domestic public opinion was in full swing, the IG team enjoyed a rare period of peace.
There weren't too many problems with the training before the finals, mostly playing European server ranked games to keep my feel up.
The super account released by Riot for them can help them gain points very quickly.
Yuan Shen only played about fifty games and reached the top 30 in the European server.
The hidden points of super accounts allow them to reach high ranks easily.
However, the biggest difference between the European server and the Chinese server is the atmosphere.
Simply put, European players are so happy and can play everything.
All kinds of weird and non-mainstream heroes can appear.
However, there are actually some slaves in the high-ranking segments of the Chinese and Korean servers.
There are also many people who have unique skills.
However, relatively speaking, the level of high-ranking players in the European server is somewhat worse.
It has to be said that the fact that FNC and G2 often use fancy moves is also closely related to the ranking environment of the European server.
During the day, I would go to check out the venue, get familiar with the machines and the environment, shoot documentaries and record trash talk segments. When I got home at night, I would study SKT's previous game videos.
For Yuan Shen, these few days were quite fulfilling.
During this period, there were many calls to Yuan Shen.
Europe, North America, everywhere.
Many clubs have privately asked him if he has any idea of playing abroad. The salary is definitely higher than in China.
But whether they can win the championship is another matter.
The quotation has gradually increased from 180 million US dollars to 230 million US dollars, and there is a trend of further increase.
Converted into RMB, it is almost tens of millions or close to twenty million.
It is many times higher than his current salary.
This also made Yuan Shen feel a little emotional.
The European and American regions have always been a good place for retirement.
In order to make money, many Korean players choose to play in Europe and the United States. The money is high and the work is not tiring. If they lose the game, it is their teammates' fault and has little to do with themselves.
Relatively speaking, LPL is only their second choice.
Those who come to LPL basically want to make money and achieve results.
In the end, there was really no other way, so Yuan Shen directly gave the phone to Su Xiaoluo.
This kind of thing still needs to be solved by professionals.
He just needs to play the game well.
As for where S6 would go, he really hadn't thought about it.
The traffic of e-sports players comes and goes quickly. Even though he is famous now, once the version changes, his performance deteriorates and his level drops, his fans will soon abandon him.
However, with the existence of the system, he is not worried about his lower limit.
However, LGD gave them a big gift, which Yuan Shen did not expect.
"Burning Man and Malzahar?"
Yuan Shen looked strange.
He didn't expect that LGD not only shot an arrow in the opposite direction, but also used this fire-forged iron style of play.
However, with the help of Malzahar, the entire system becomes much more complete.
By this time, there was no one left to train with them.
After the principal communicated with LGD manager Pan Jie, the five members of LGD also came to Berlin.
They were not in a hurry to return to China, but were hired by IG as sparring partners to participate in the finals together.
"This is a killer move that we have been researching for a long time. We have used it many times before and the effect is good."
"It's a pity that you didn't release the hero Iron Man in the semi-finals, otherwise we would have won a game anyway."
If Firefox said this, Fu Manduo would not believe it.
But the person who said this was Homme, last year's Samsung champion coach, so Fu Manduo couldn't help but take it seriously.
After the test, everyone at IG was surprised to find out.
It really works! !
Malzahar cooperates with Brand, and the long-range mage is enough to suppress Iron Man in the early stage.
"It's useless to just practice this. It's still unclear whether SKT will have Iron Man..."
Jack has also been practicing the hero Iron Man intensively during this period to make up for his last shortcoming.
With KID teaching him, Jack learned very quickly.
However, compared to Iron Man, he still prefers the hero Brand.
The accuracy of skill release is also a big test for him.
"It's just to make up for the shortcomings. We must not take it lightly when facing SKT."
"Everything must be prepared..."
The final between IG and SKT will be held in six days.
Time is tight and the task is heavy.
But both SKT and IG have rarely appeared in front of the media during this period.
Everyone is making the final sprint.
No one knows what SKT has prepared.
No one knows what level IG is at now.
At this point in the World Championship, the competition is no longer just about the tactical reserves of both sides and the individual strength of the players.
Even the mentality and energy...
Everything will be put on the table and officially unveiled on the day of the finals!
