Chapter 349-Desperate situation, the last hope!

Everyone at this moment had to sigh at the level of Riot's animation production. I don't know if they hired someone, but the pictures just now were really too exciting.
No one had known that Yuan Shen, who had such a handsome face, could be painted as so cruel and evil.

Indeed, for LPL, Yuan Shen is a hero, but for other regions, Yuan Shen is the real big devil!

The end of the Intercontinental Championship Finals promotional video also indicates that today's finals has begun!
The much-anticipated finals, two major regions, eight teams, are all ready!
In the first BO5 match, the LPL region followed the tactical strategy that was arranged overnight, and without knowing which team the LCK would send in the first match, they sent out IG!
It’s simple. In the first game of BO5, especially in this kind of regional confrontation, morale is the most important thing!
Similarly, if we can easily win the first game and help the LPL region get a point, the pressure on other teams in the subsequent games will be reduced a lot, and they will naturally perform better!
But LPL has this idea, and LCK has the same idea!
In the first game, they also sent out the KT team, which was recognized as the strongest team in this year's Intercontinental Championship.

Therefore, today's first game of the Intercontinental Finals was like a collision between Mars and the Earth!!

IG vs. KT!

The showdown between the two strongest brothers!!
This scene instantly lifted the spirits of all the audiences in the two major competition areas, as well as the audiences abroad. They went crazy!
But in the end, IG was still more skilled. Both sides were teams with players with outstanding individual abilities, and they particularly loved fighting.

No more nonsense, just do it.

In the end, the two sides went back and forth for 05 minutes. IG relied on Yuan Shen's rhythm-driving ability to win the game and helped the LPL region get a good start in the B finals today!
Celebrate together!
After this game, the LPL audience went crazy, and even the other three LPL teams were already more motivated than IG!
My big brother, the big brother who defeated you!
Great!
With this kind of discrimination, the LPL think tank made a prompt decision and changed the original strategy, letting RNG play in advance in the second game, hoping to win another game in one fell swoop!
As a result, an unexpected thing happened. Because Uzi had just played in the game and had a serious hand injury, the overall coordination of RNG was a bit out of touch, and in the end they were defeated by SKT sent by LCK!
After this battle, the two sides came to a 1-1 tie.

The LPL region is already a little panicked, because if RNG loses, it means that all four LPL teams will definitely take to the field!

The remaining EDG and WE will face SSG and LZ.

"It would be best if WE played against SSG and EDG played against LZ, so there is a high probability of winning."

Abu said, stroking his chin.

If EDG plays against SSG, the chances of winning are too low.

No matter which team WE faces, their winning rate is 50-50, but against LZ, the chances of winning are obviously lower.

At the same time, the third game started and the LPL region sent out EDG.

When the LCK teams appeared, everyone gasped.

The worst thing happened.

The order of LPL's appearance was guessed by LCK!
EDG’s opponent is SSG.

The two teams are equally strong and have similar playing styles, but SSG is superior in the operational style that EDG is best at.

To be honest, it's possible that either team will win or lose, but in everyone's mind, they still hope that EDG can perform well, otherwise... once EDG loses, LPL will lag behind LCK by 1 to 2, and at that time they can only rely on WE.

This kind of ending is something no one wants to see, and it is also the worst outcome!
The 1:1 draw between EDG and SSG has become the most important match of this year's Intercontinental Championship for all LPL viewers.

The rules of the Intercontinental Tournament stipulate that each representative team from each major region can only play once in B05. Only when all four teams have played and it is dragged to the fifth game, will the coaching staff make temporary arrangements and discuss and choose one of the four teams to play.

This is the rule for both regions. As for the LPL region, IG and RNG have both played, with one win and one loss.

It would be fine if EDG won, but if they lost, the LCK region would lead the LPL region 2-1 and get the match point in the Intercontinental Asia Championship Finals.
At that time, the only team from the LPL region that had not yet appeared was WE, and WE's chances of winning against LZ were not high.

To put it bluntly, this match for EDG is a life-or-death match. If they lose, the LPL region won’t be able to make it to the fifth game and will be directly defeated by the LCK 3-1!
Everyone held their breath and concentrated.

In the huge viewing room, all the LPL players were staring at the big screen.

As the commentator said: "The LPL region has reached the most critical life-and-death game. In this game, EDG - please!"

The match between EDG and SSG...officially begins!
Regular start, regular lineup, no special features. EDG and SSG are similar in style, because they are both very good at operations.

In today's version, it is rare to be able to operate to this level.

The pressure on all EDG members is undoubtedly enormous now. Under the tremendous pressure, their performance was a little anxious. Fortunately, there are players in the team who have seen big scenes and they quickly stabilized.

SSG, on the other hand, was as steady as an old dog, calm and composed, and took the absolute initiative.

By the middle of the game, both sides started to trade blows, but the more time went on, the more LPL players felt disappointed.

Gap! The operational gap between EDG and SSG is too big! Facing SSG's strict defense operational strategy, EDG is obviously helpless.

In just 15 minutes of the mid-game, EDG's economy fell 4,000 behind SSG without them noticing!
Seeing the disadvantage getting bigger and bigger, EDG was defeated step by step.

Domestic audiences have already started cursing, and there are sighs in the lounge.

Under such high pressure, the mentality of EDG's starting players finally had huge problems!
In the most crucial counterattack at the dragon pit in the late game, EDG top laner Mouse used Prince, and in a panic, he used EQ in the opposite direction to escape. As a result, he was too nervous and actually pressed the golden body in the middle of EQ.

It looks like the imperial army is inviting them.

The immortal pointed the way!
This critical reverse operation, dedicated to serving the country, completely disintegrated the struggling EDG. Afterwards, the morale completely collapsed. In just 20 minutes, SSG flattened EDG's crystal base!
Lost!
At this moment, the three LPL commentators held their heads and wailed, the audience cried out, and the sentimental young lady's eyes were red.

On all major media platforms outside, the audience's overwhelming and crazy abuse instantly came.

Despair, helplessness, anger.

After this battle, the top laner Mouse became famous!
Inside the LPL training room.

At this moment, there was silence and you could hear a pin drop.

All the WE members stared at the screen stupidly, not coming to their senses at all.

From the moment EDG lost the game, they were already confused, because once EDG lost, the LPL region was in a desperate situation.

One to two!
Now, except for them, all LPL representative teams have played, and now only WE is left!
Their next opponent is the LCK Spring Split champion, LZ!
If they lose this game, the hope that all LPL fans have been looking forward to for so long will be shattered!
My mood has become extremely depressed.

The situation that everyone least wanted to see finally happened.

I don’t know how long it took, but sounds gradually began to appear in the silent lounge.

Because all the EDG players have returned, but after they came back, they didn't even have the courage to look up. All of them lowered their heads, almost tucked them into their crotches.

Mouse's face turned red, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole to hide in. He could be seen wiping away tears...

That wave of eye-catching operations, to be honest, even if it was a bronze level, it would not be wrong. In other words, did you press the golden body when you were EQing?
“It’s okay, it’s been done well.

Yuan Shen said something comforting and patted Meiko on the shoulder.

It would have been fine if he hadn't taken the photo. But after taking the photo, Meiko collapsed. He lowered his head and covered his head, sobbing in pain: "I don't know... We really want to help LPL fight back, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, wuwuwu..." Everyone was horrified when they saw this.

"Hey." The factory manager came over, didn't say anything, just patted his old teammate on the back.

At this moment, no further words are needed.

"Okay, now is not the time to cry, we haven't lost yet!" Abu is worthy of being a champion coach, he has adjusted himself. After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes subconsciously fell on WE. Now, WE is the only hope of the entire LPL region!
Winning or losing determines the hard work and dedication of LPL during this period.

Everyone in WE was also excited, feeling the pressure like a mountain.

Abu turned around and said: "Now we are still collectively helping WE. As long as we can survive the fourth game and drag this finals to BO5, then the fifth game..."

Before he finished speaking, he looked at the IG members again.

Everyone's eyes turned to them.

"We are confident!" Yuan Shen looked at the WE players and said in a resounding voice: "As long as you can hold on through the fourth game, the rest will be left to us!"

"As long as we survive this, everything else will be left to us!"

The rest of the IG members also spoke up. At this moment, they were confident and worthy of being called the big brother of LPL!
"Okay! We will... do our best!" In this situation, the tension of the WE team instantly turned into flames, burning their entire bodies!
Damn, what's so scary? What's LZ got? Didn't they lose to IG before? Just do it!
We even dragged it to the final decisive game, where they were swept 0-3 by IG.

We are obviously stronger!
Abu was also excited, clapping his hands and shouting: "Okay! From now on, everyone hurry up, there are only ten minutes left. In ten minutes, life and death will be decided by God, and wealth and honor will be decided by fate! Don't ask for anything else, just do it with a clear conscience!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the lounge immediately began to prepare nervously.

Time passed quickly, and ten minutes later, the director gave a notification.

All WE members put on their team uniforms and are ready to go on stage.

Step onto the battlefield that determines the life and death of the LPL region!
Everyone's eyes were on them. Everyone knew that only ten minutes had passed and it would not affect the outcome of the game at all.

WE vs. LZ, just looking at the team names, it's a medium horse against a top horse.

Another top-notch horse from LCK.

Many viewers, including the commentators and hosts, knew that from the moment EDG lost, the finals, which was about whether they could win the championship, had already been lost!
The reason for doing this is that we don't want to let our efforts go to waste, and we are even more unwilling to fail, so we just wait and see the final result.

Among them, IG is the most innocent, because they have always been the No. 1 in this intercontinental competition, and now they have lost completely...

In the clash between regions, LPL is still a little weak.

At this moment, WE had already walked to the door. WE's top laner, 957, walked through the crowd and looked at everyone's eyes. The desperate and depressed atmosphere in the lounge made him grit his teeth and pretended to be relaxed with his signature bright smile: "Well, I'll go help you guys and come back for the fifth game..."

After that, he shouted to the rest of WE: "Let's go! Brothers! Let's go help IG big brother and fight for the fifth game!"

“You can win!”

“Trust us.

"Wait...we'll be back!"

Return triumphantly.

"The soul of LPL will never die, we...will prosper forever!"

WE left, their backs looking desolate and resolute.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but everyone saw loneliness and weakness in the five thin backs of them.

No one believed them.

Yuan Shen's ears were still echoing with 957's words:
"Wait for us to help you fight the fifth one and come back!"

Then he looked back at A Guang who was blaming himself, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.

Although at this moment, everyone inside and outside the stadium was pessimistic about WE, a glimmer of hope rose in the hearts of everyone present.

"We are waiting for the news of your triumphant return!
2017 Intercontinental Series Asia Finals B05 Game , a life-or-death game,

The LPL region sent out the last warrior, the spring season runner-up WE!

LCK is the top team in the spring season, and LZ is still performing strongly.

These two teams, seemingly so far ahead of each other, met under such circumstances.
As soon as we meet, it's a life-and-death battle!
"Now, LPL has to rely on this least favored team to save their region and save this world finals!"

The English commentator's teasing voice fell, the BP of both sides ended, and the game officially began!
LCK has nothing to worry about, because they know that they have already won the Intercontinental Championship!
LPL fans outside were still cursing EDG in despair, and many even directly quit the live broadcast room.

That's right, they won't even watch this game.

Because I don’t dare to watch it, and I don’t want to see the LPL’s top division, which has been clamoring for nearly a year, lose the championship in the Intercontinental Championship!
But we won’t stop playing the game just because others don’t watch it.

In this life-and-death game, WE chose the strong combination of mid laner Syndra + bottom lane Skateboard Shoes, while LZ still used a very basic and confident style of play.

The two sides fought back and forth, and beyond everyone's expectations, WE fought extremely hard in this game. Among them, the captain 957 in the top lane made full use of his ultimate move in the early stage and repeatedly gained a lot of resources.

Although LZ got a lot of kills and the situation was a little disadvantageous, it was not fatal!
Now, everyone who originally had no hope immediately perked up!
The subsequent development of the game situation also made everyone who was still watching the game and everyone in the LPL training room feel trembling!
In this game, WE broke their most familiar habits and tactics and became extremely aggressive!
To fight LZ, you have to fight hard!
Where did you learn this from IG?
The game lasted fifteen minutes. After a fierce fight in the early stage, the score was 7:7 on both sides!
It’s a tie!
The LPL audience at the scene had already had their throats hoarse!
WE, there is no losing trend anymore!
Several commentators on the stage were shaking with excitement. Everyone in the LPL training room had also become the most loyal audience of LPL at this moment, especially the IG team, who kept muttering: "Go! Go!"

“Nice!”

"WE played so fiercely in this game. Beautiful!
But despite all the efforts, WE's advantage did not expand too much, and because they were facing LZ, the top team in LCK, everyone had a psychological barrier when playing against LCK teams. Until the last moment, everyone's hearts would not let go...

Except IG.

Because no matter what opponent IG faces, they are very confident.

"WE... there's no rush now, we... Ouch!!"

The game changed before the big dragon refreshed. After WE was stabilized, they made a sudden desperate attack, abandoning everything. The mid laner Xiye's Kled went home, then decisively TPed to the bottom lane, double-teamed LZ's rear, stun three people with EQ through the wall, and cooperated with his teammates to achieve a 0-for-3 wave! !
At this moment, the whole world was shocked!
LPL commentator, the lounge, exploded instantly!
