As long as the wages are in place, all champions will be crushed to pieces

Chapter 157 Semi-finals, battle against Dragon Ball! !

Shanghai Oriental Sports Center.

This building is located near the Qiantan, not too far from the Huangpu River. The shape of the stadium is like a rough wave, and the overall appearance design is like a crown, as if to indicate that whoever can win in this stadium will get it. It’s time to wear a crown!
Nowadays, the venue, which can accommodate 8000 people, is packed with seats, and any sound from tens of thousands of spectators can gather into a wave of sound that sweeps through the entire venue.

The originally dark stage suddenly lit up with a 'boom' sound, and the electronic screen used to broadcast the game screen also attracted the attention of everyone present.

With the sound of 'dong' again, a fist suddenly appeared in the screen as if it was bombarding the screen, and then the glass shattered, and gradually the fist evolved into the logo of Riot Company.

As the logo gradually dimmed, when the light emerged again, Li Feifan's side face appeared on the big screen at the scene.

The narration voice dubbed by him slowly resounded throughout the Oriental Sports Center.

"Being in the semi-finals for the first time is an unprecedented experience for me. People say that if you encounter a little setback when you are young, you can accumulate experience for yourself to stand in a higher position in the future, but... Why can’t we just stand higher?”

"The LCK teams have almost dominated the world championship of League of Legends in the past few years. When almost everyone faces the Korean team, they seem to subconsciously feel that they will lose?"

"I want to say no to this phenomenon!"

"This is our home court. Today I want to use a victory to tell the audience in our division that the era of being eliminated by default when encountering an LCK team is over. From now on! Switch offense and defense! It's time for LCK teams to also Taste the feeling of being defeated by us! The road to the championship, they can go! We can go too!"

Li Feifan's words were very powerful, coupled with his stern expression and murderous eyes, it gave the audience a great shock!

The supporters at the scene were waving flags and cheering for him in the stands, waving their support sticks desperately, trying to echo Li Feifan's very powerful words!
"Mengqing! Xiao Li is so handsome in this part?" Liu Mengmeng's eyes widened, as if she was meeting Li Feifan for the first time, "The more I look at Xiao Li, the more handsome he becomes!"

"Isn't he always so handsome?" Su Mengqing rolled her eyes, with the same star-chasing smile on her face, "He is becoming more and more confident, and he is becoming more and more manly!"

"Your upbringing is not in vain." Liu Mengmeng teased with a smile, "Are you really watching him grow up step by step?"

"Should it count?" Su Mengqing tapped her lips with her white fingers, her eyes rolled up as if she was thinking, and the scenes in her memory were quickly scrolling in her mind.

She has indeed witnessed Li Feifan grow step by step from a young and immature young man to what he is today.

He is still himself, but his overall mental outlook is completely different from before!
at the same time.

A large number of viewers are also pouring into major live broadcast rooms. China is rich in resources, but the number of viewers that the Oriental Sports Center can accommodate is only a drop in the bucket compared to the huge online viewing group.

IG is the No. [-] seed in the LPL division, and the team's style is very gorgeous and advocates offense. This World Championship has attracted countless fans even among foreign fan groups!

As the No. [-] seed in the LCK division, Longzhu naturally has huge appeal.

Therefore, this game has attracted a lot of attention even on external networks.

【Okay, okay!What Brother Feifan actually wants to say is that if Kou can go to this S competition championship, I can go too! 】

[It’s a good thing to have confidence, but you also have to win, otherwise... Brother Feifan will definitely be beaten by Green Garlic after the game. 】

[IG, give me a go, give these sticks a hard blow!Especially that bullshit Khan! 】

[I’m afraid of being a chicken. If you lose anyway, you will be ridiculed by green garlic no matter whether you say anything before the game or not. It’s better to say some harsh words before the game to satisfy your craving. IG, come on! 】

Then everything on the screen came to a close-up of Khan. As the most dazzling core of this Dragon Ball, he also enjoyed the most personal shots.

"I gained valuable experience in the LSPL, but I was a loser at the time. Now...I am making a comeback. I hope I am the winner this time!"

Actually, what Khan said during the interview and filming was quite low-key. Normally, if he is so low-key, the audience would not make him look bad.

But the phrase '4chinese can't win' undoubtedly touched the audience's nerves.

Maybe you are resentful because you were played at the top of the canyon, or maybe you lost too much rank and got carried away for a while, so you said something indiscriminately.

But what you said is what you said, and what you said is what you said. The harm caused to the viewers in the LPL region is also substantial, and you will not be forgiven because you give in later.

There was a burst of boos at the scene. This was the audience expressing their dissatisfaction with Khan in their own way!

Fortunately, Khan's personal shot didn't last too long, and he quickly switched to IG, but the audience didn't care that much.

Khan is from Dragon Ball, right?
Then even the people who wear Dragon Ball will hate it, as long as the Dragon Ball team's promotional video is shot, there will be a burst of boos at the scene!
European and American viewers who don't know the truth are still saying "?" in the official live broadcast room? ? ? 'Woolen cloth.

After all, in previous competitions, the impression left by domestic audiences on foreign audiences was that they were warm and hospitable, and it was almost rare for them to target a team in this way.

Some international students started popularizing science in the barrage, and the European and American audiences who were purely interested in it were looking forward to this grudge match even more! !
The promotional video came to an end, and countless bright lights were focused on the middle of the stage. The championship trophy on the booth looked shining under the strong light!
And the voice of 'Immortal Grip' Ren Dong also sounded again!
"Hello fellow summoners on site and in the live broadcast room, welcome to the Oriental Sports Center!"

A long back and a crisp suit are Ren Dong's standard features on the stage. His voice was loud, "The first round of the knockout round has come to an end. After fierce fighting, two teams in the top half finally stood out, but under the cruel competition system , there is destined to be only one winner today who can get the finals ticket to the Bird's Nest!!"

“Next let’s invite the two participating teams today!!”

"First up is the IG team, the number one seed team from the LPL division. They achieved a complete victory in the group stage, advanced to the quarterfinals as the first in Group A, and then won 3 in the quarterfinals. Defeated the powerful enemy Samsung team with a score of -1, and finally reached the semi-final stage!"

At this time, the electronic screen behind began to play the various wonderful performances of the IG team in this world championship!

It attracted bursts of cheers from the audience! !
A burst of brilliant fireworks erupted from the front of the stage, and bursts of dry ice began to rise!

The five players of the IG team started from the edge of the stage and walked to the middle, in order of position.

"Theshy is the top laner, Ning is the jungler, and Rookie is the mid laner..."

When he was here, Ren Dong paused, because the audience had already given out deafening cheers to show their love for cocks! !
As IG's well-deserved team spirit and signature character, he has already had a deep bond with the IG team!
When you mention IG, you will automatically think of Song Yijin!
After the sound gradually subsided, Ren Dong spoke again, "Mortal!!"

Before the previous wave of sound dissipated, the second wave of sound began to sweep through the entire sports hall.

If Song Yijin is the soul of IG, then Li Feifan is undoubtedly the shining star of this IG team. His joining has brought about earth-shaking changes to IG.

In addition, the version of this World Championship is so inclined to the bottom lane, Li Feifan is also very competitive. In such a version suitable for ADC, he has outstanding performance in almost every game, becoming the most stable core output in IG. point!

At one point, viewers in the LPL division even called out that the LPL finally had its own 'output robot'!
After the noise gradually subsided, Ren Dong smiled and continued to introduce, "Assistant Megan and head coach Mafa!"

The five starting players plus the head coach stood at the front of the stage, just to the left of the trophy stand.

Immediately afterwards, Ren Dong raised his voice again and extended his tone, "The next one is the No. [-] seed team from LCK. They also won six consecutive victories in the group stage and advanced as the first place in Group B. Then they Defeat EDG’s Dragon Ball team in the quarterfinals!!”

Compared with IG, the reaction of the audience when Dragon Ball came on stage was undoubtedly much colder. Although they gave a little applause out of politeness, the momentum was completely different, and there were no cheers.

The Dragon Ball players appeared on stage one after another, and when Ren Dong read Khan's ID, there were even bursts of boos. Even though the applause itself was not big, the boos seemed so harsh.

So much so that Khan's expression on the stage was a little tense, he looked very embarrassed, and he didn't smile at all.

But there is no doubt that the behavior of the audience also stimulated Khan!
Human smiles don’t disappear, they only shift.

You're not going to make me laugh now, are you?

I will stop you from laughing later! !

The players from both sides turned around and headed to the players' box, while the director switched the live broadcast to the commentary box.

The people sitting in the commentary box today are Guan Zeyuan and Wang Jiji, and the invited commentator is Leng Shaoicon, the guest of the top eight draw.

"This game is a competition between the No. 3 seeds in the two major regions of China and South Korea. At the same time, IG and Longzhu are also the only two teams to achieve six consecutive victories during the group stage! Longzhu can be said to be the best team in this world championship. The quarterfinals They easily eliminated the EDG team 0-[-]. Since the beginning of this World Championship, Longzhu has not lost a single defeat! Their momentum is quite strong!"

"But fortunately, the IG team is also in very good shape. From the beginning of the World Championship to the present, they only lost a small game to Samsung in the quarterfinals. The two teams are in very good shape!!"

The director promptly provided the rankings and comparisons of various data between the two teams in this year's World Championship.

"In fact, we can see that the two teams are actually similar in terms of average game duration, blood level, average economic lead per game, tower pushing data, etc."

Dragon Ball's average data per game is actually very scary. After all, they are a team that has never lost, so all the data seem to be very exaggerated, but IG is not inferior, and is even in a leading position in many data.

The two commentators explained these data to the audience in detail before the game, in order to let the audience better understand the confrontation between the two sides.

Whether IG or Longzhu, they are both teams that like to play offense, so the bloodiness between the two sides will definitely be full!
"Master Leng, as a professional player, can you give us your predictions for this game?" Guan Zeyuan appropriately turned the topic to Master Leng, who was a guest.

After icon thought for a moment, he gave his opinion, "We all know that Longzhu is a team that is dominated by the upper midfielder and the jungler, especially the coordination between the upper and jungler is very good, so we also say that this Longzhu team has the shadow of last year's Tigers team. Well, if you want to defeat Longzhu, you must match their strength in the middle and jungle!"

"The reason why EDG lost to Longzhu so easily was because their top laner couldn't compete with Khan, and the top lane was in a state of being penetrated."

Guan Zeyuan and Wang remember nodded in agreement.

The way EDG lost three consecutive games was almost exactly the same, that is, they were beaten in the top lane, and then they couldn't stand on the side lanes in the mid-term. They were constantly drained of a lot of energy by Khan, and finally lost the game. "As for IG, although a lot of IG's highlight shots are on Mortal, I want to say...their top laner theshy is definitely underestimated. This person's personal strength is actually very ruthless! So in terms of Ueno strength, IG will definitely be able to Competing with Dragon Ball, in the middle, BDD’s personal ability is very strong, but Broiler’s personal ability is even stronger!!”

"So I personally think that IG may have a slight advantage in terms of strength in the upper, middle and jungle areas. As for the bottom lane??"

"This version is actually not very suitable for Dragon Ball's bottom lane. The two elders Xuan Ming can stabilize the lane, but due to their age, they are not suitable for this version that needs a big core shooter in the bottom lane and needs to stably provide a lot of damage. They are more Suitable for the kind of version that plays a tool player in the bottom lane and cooperates with the midfielder."

"I don't need to say much about IG's bottom lane. Mortal is one of the most suitable ADCs for this version! In my personal opinion, he is the No.1 ADC in this world championship. No one can touch it. he."

"With a slight advantage in the top, middle and jungle, and a big advantage in the bottom lane, I personally prefer that IG can defeat Longzhu! The score is probably 3-1!"

Leng Shao published a well-founded analysis, which also attracted the approval of the two commentators, and gave reassurance to the audience at the scene and watching the live broadcast!

At the same time, Wang Jiji also spoke up, "We got the news... both sides drew lots, and Longzhu won, so Longzhu got priority. They chose the blue side first, so in the first game... IG will play on the red side. This That’s not good news.”

With a crisp sound of clang, the screen was directly switched to the BP screen of both sides by the director!

At this point in the game, everyone knew that this World Championship was a version that favored the blue side. The winning rates between the red and blue sides were extremely unequal.

The red side naturally suffers from the ban position.

And if Dragon Ball wins the lottery and gets the priority to choose sides in the first, third, and fifth games, then... there is pressure for IG.

Just like breaking serve in tennis, IG also needs to successfully break the game on the red side. Otherwise, even if both sides win on the blue side, IG will ultimately ruin the victory of the game because they did not have priority in selecting sides in the fifth game.

"It's okay. When other teams face Dragon Ball, they need to take on Jess's ban position on the red side, but IG may not need to. We can trust theshy's personal ability."

As soon as they came up, the first ban in Dragon Ball was given to Karma.

Apparently...

They definitely don't want to see IG come up with this lineup. You must know that this set of incense burner monster's swing system almost caused SKT to overturn in the quarterfinals. Longzhu is not willing to try its own way.

Banning is the best way.

IG backhandedly banned Kalista, which is nothing to say.

In the second ban, Dragon Ball gave Galio. BDD didn't like using this kind of tool character, but he didn't want Song Yijin to get it, so he had to do this.

IG banned Luo, and there was nothing wrong with the red side taking the initiative to demolish Xia Luo.

In the third ban, Longzhu banned the prince.

But for IG, we need to face a problem!
Because there is only the last one left in the ban position. Is it Jace or Feng Nu? ?

"Wow, to ban Jess, you have to give up Feng Nu to the opponent. And if you ban Feng Nu, Jace is Khan's signature. He used this hero to break through the entire top lane of LCK. IG now needs to face a difficulty. It’s a choice, so...the red side’s BP in this version is really difficult to make, no wonder the red side’s winning rate is so low.”

Just when everyone was having a headache about IG.

However, IG made a choice that left everyone confused, because IG did not choose to ban Feng Nu or Jess at all. Children only made multiple choice questions. I chose to release them all.

IG chose to ban Syndra in the third ban position.

"Eh? This is beautiful! It's like throwing the question back to Longzhu. Do you want Jace or Feng Nu?" Wang remembers that his eyes suddenly lit up and his voice couldn't help but rise a bit.

"It is indeed a wise choice!" Leng Shao borrowed a line from a certain hero.

This time, Longzhu seems a little stiff. Their calculation on BP, now it seems that it is a calculation for Loneliness? ?
A close-up shot was taken of Longzhu's player bench, and each team member could be seen chattering, seemingly arguing about something.

At last……

Their choice was to steal Jace.

"Robbing Jace? That's understandable," Guan Zeyuan said, "After all, this is the system that Longzhu is best at, and they also relied on this system to achieve success in the LCK."

Dragon Ball chose Jace, then... IG directly locked Feng Nu + Yanque!

"This can be considered a solution." Leng Shao explained, "No wonder IG wants to ban Syndra in the last move. If Syndra is banned, Yanque in the middle will have a line against the remaining popular mid lane heroes. Quan, and then use Yanque's powerful map running ability to continuously put pressure on the side, so that Khan's Jess does not dare to cross the line too arrogantly to suppress, to relieve theshy's line pressure, IG's solution is good."

The choice returned to Longzhu. After Longzhu weighed it again and again, they chose Verus + Lulu.

And IG selected the cannon on the third floor.

The two sides have entered the second round of BP. IG has no choice in the upper and jungle, while Longzhu has no choice in the middle and jungle, so both sides focus on the middle lane.

IG chose to ban all Wine Barrel and Pig Girl, while Longzhu banned Digger and Zack.

no way.

In the second round of BP, IG can grab first. If they don't follow along and ban the jungler, then IG can get a good jungler, but they can't get it, and Longzhu can only choose to self-destruct.

IG just snatched the blind monk away!

Although Lee Sin is not a popular version, as the most versatile choice for the jungle position, Lee Sin can ensure that it can be used in any version with its mechanism.

Now it's Longzhu's turn to have a headache. IG's midfield and jungle combination is quite strong.

They can't choose a midfielder who is too weak.

And if Jayce is in the top lane, the jungle position needs to be supplemented by a front row and team initiating ability, otherwise their front row ability and team initiating ability will be too weak!
In the end, he could only choose the big tree.

The big tree jungler has been popular for a while in the summer split, and it can be considered barely usable.

The midfielder combination of Dashu + Ryze can't be said to be very strong, but it has enough control skills, which can be regarded as having a certain effect.

Thus.

The suspense lies in IG's choice to hit the road.

"According to the previous selection rhythm, there is a high probability that it will be Kennen or Gnar. It is unlikely to choose a tank hero. It is too dangerous to use a tank hero to face Khan's Jayce. Although Kennen or Gnar are not good in the early stage, It needs to be suppressed, but when equipped in the mid-to-late stage, it won’t be as passive as a tank hero.”

The casters are choosing between Kenan and Gnar.

but……

The IG on the field once again gave an answer that they found incredible! !
The audience was in an uproar!
Because, the hero who appeared on the fifth floor of IG was actually the Holy Lancer, Lucian! !

"Huh?? Lucian?"

Everyone was stunned!

Even the people from Dragon Ball were shocked!
Don't look at EDG's obsession with mid laner Lucian, but Lucian, the hero, was cut in a version before the World Championship. That is, the CD of the E skill was greatly extended.

Moreover, in everyone's perception, Lucian always takes the middle path.

Take it and walk on it?

"Is this IG's hidden black technology tactic? Top laner Lucian has never appeared before, right?" Guan Zeyuan looked very surprised!

But IG didn’t hesitate and decided directly on the 5th floor!
After a final round of hero swaps, it was officially confirmed that Lucian would be on the road, and the lineups of both sides were also officially determined.

Dragon Ball is on the blue side and IG is on the red side.

Top Road: Jace VS Lucian.

Jungler: Big tree VS blind monk.

Mid lane: Ryze VS Rockbird.

Bottom lane: Verus + Lulu VS Xiao Pao + Feng Nu!

PS: OK, I’ll stop here for now so that everyone won’t feel uncomfortable. I’ll update more tomorrow and try to finish the first scene.
