Chapter 328 Semifinal
Jinling.

The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

Deafening cheers came from the Olympic Sports Center.

"In 36 minutes and 17 seconds, the WE team base exploded!"

"Victory!"

"Let us congratulate Emperor Star for successfully defeating WE 2-0, defeating a strong enemy and advancing to the next round!"

"The MVP of this game is jungler Chengfeng!"

The commentator roared on the stage, and the audience reveled off the field. The Olympic Sports Center seemed to be plunged into a sea of ​​carnival, and everyone was cheering for the Emperor Star Team on the stage.

Since being reversed by LGD, Emperor Star has never failed again. Now, even WE has been cut down, and it is only two steps away from the final championship!

Fans went into carnival, with Zhang Zhaoyang jumping excitedly backstage.

"Win again! Win again!"

"Hahahaha!"

The laughter spread through the walls, to the corridors, to the stage, to the auditorium, and merged with the shouts of thousands of fans, and the cheers were overwhelming.

"At this point, all the matches between the lower bracket of the second round of this S1 knockout tournament are over. OMG, C9, and WE were unfortunately eliminated, while FNC, TPA, and Emperor Star successfully advanced to the next round."

"Next, they will go to the Magic City for the final semi-finals with the losing team in the winner group."

"In the next game, we invite SKT and LGD to compete. Whoever wins will be qualified to go to Jingzhou to participate in the finals!"

"Two teams are invited to enter!!"

"SKT is not a weak team. I know everyone thinks that the Korean division is not good, and neither is SKT, but their ability to get to this point has proven their strength!"

"Don't think that we are strong. If we cannot face our opponents, we will lose no matter how powerful we are!"

"Anyway, come on!"

Backstage, Deng Junhua encouraged the team's morale: "Win this game and advance to the finals. As long as we win the championship, the head office will get a big prize! LGD can also get more sponsorships!"

"Definitely!"

09Everyone shouted in unison: "We must win!"

In another room.

Cui Minzhi smiled.

The newly formed SKT can reach this point in one breath, which is far beyond his imagination. Before coming to participate in S1, no matter how optimistic and confident he was, he couldn't believe that the team could reach this point.

If you go further, you will be at least in the top two, and if you fail, you will be at least in the top five.

This result has far exceeded the target given to him by the group, and promotion and salary increase are just around the corner.

Looking at the most important core of the team, Cui Minzhi saw the childish melon-skin hairdo. Cui Minzhi could not wait to rush up to hug Faker and kiss him dozens of times.

It was this guy who was unknown in the global e-sports circle and ranked number one in the Korean server. He brought the team to its current position with his unparalleled strength. It was simply the most worthwhile investment in Cui Minzhi's life, more than anything else. He feels happy.

Recalling that when he first scouted Faker, he personally promised that he would be the core of the team, and then looking at SKT now, Cui Minzhi couldn't help but feel emotional.

"Sang Hyuk, do you have any good suggestions for the next game against LGD?"

Guapi shook his head and said solemnly: "LGD is very strong and is not a team that can be won easily. I really don't have much confidence in beating them."

"In this case, you don't need to feel too much psychological pressure. The team's progress to this point has far exceeded the group's expectations. No matter how we play next, it won't be a problem." Cui Minzhi patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry and be bold. Speaking of which, it doesn’t matter what happens!”

"Okay!" Guapi took a deep breath and began to explain his ideas.

After a 15-minute break, the battle between the winners finally started.

Ten people from LGD and SKT took the stage.

There was a sudden cheering sound in the stadium. "LGD, come on!"

"LGD, come on!"

"LGD, come on!"

"SKT, come on!"

"SKT, come on!"

"SKT, come on!"

On the commentary desk, Miller was analyzing.

"This game is the last and most critical game between the winners. The winner will get a chance to rest. There is no need to go to Shanghai to participate in the semi-finals. They can just sit back and wait for their final opponent."

"However, the losing team does not have no chance and will fall into the loser group to compete for the last spot in the finals."

"The two teams on stage must be well known to the audience in front of the screen. The one that brought us the biggest surprise was the SKT team. Before the start of the game, I am afraid no one thought that this team from the Korean division could come here. "

"However, what they will face next is LGD, the favorite to win the championship. This is an extremely difficult challenge for SKT!"

"But no matter what, come on SKT, come on LGD too!"

On the stage.

Ten people sit down and the game enters BP.

Regarding BP, the team's voice chat was frantically discussing. Every hero's ban has an extremely important role in the next game. It must be decided carefully. No one on either side will make an easy decision until the last second.

Finally, it was delayed until the last second before the BP session ended.

The two sides officially entered the game.

This game uses BO5. Whoever can win the first three games will win.

At this point, both sides were no longer prepared to hide their secrets and brought out all the secret weapons that they had prepared before the game.

The game started with LGD taking the first victory. Under the strong suppression of LGD mid laner 09, the young and immature Demon King did not perform the amazing operations in the past. He was suppressed throughout the whole process and could not make any sound.

The bottom lane also died out due to ZSMJ's attack, and in the end SKT had no choice but to knock out GG.

However, this situation did not last. At the beginning of the second game, Faker learned the lessons from the previous game and became more mature in his playing style. He did not give 09 any chance at all and played back and forth online.

But unfortunately, the other four did not have an advantage. Benji was countered by gank several times. LGD had a huge advantage and won the game again.

"The two sides battled 2-0, and LGD took the lead to win the match point!"

"If SKT wants to win, they must think carefully about their next play style. They must make changes, otherwise this game will be the end of their journey to the S1 World Finals!"

Korean commentators are even more helpless and worried.

"In comparison, LGD is so powerful. SKT was suppressed in both games!"

"If you want to find a chance to turn defeat into victory, player Faker must take action. Only he has that talent."

Guapi was also beaten to the point of numbness on the stage, and he didn't understand what the commentary said. However, under the pressure of 09 in his peak period, it was amazing that he could evenly fight, and it was not easy to do it.

But if they can't find a way to find opportunities, SKT 0 to 3 is almost a foregone conclusion.

He must find a way to break the situation.

After a short break, the third game continues.

This time, SKT unexpectedly adopted a brand new style of play, which was completely different from the previous two games in terms of lineup, alignment, and tactical ideas.

Miller watched for a long time and suddenly screamed.

"SKT's style of play is similar to that of Emperor Star!"
