LOL: You don’t want to be broadcast live on the entire network, right.?

Chapter 144 RNG: Brother Chen, is it too late for me to admit my mistake now?

"Congratulations to SKT T1!! Winning the first game of 2016 MSI Finals BO5 and taking the lead by one point!"

"A wonderful textbook-style forced opening system helped T1 get closer to the world championship trophy!"

"Congratulations to SKT... But we don't have to worry. I think it's normal to win or lose in BO5. Don't be discouraged. RNG still has a chance..."

Various competition areas around the world issued varying degrees of exclamations and sighs of regret.

The last sentence was naturally said by the LPL division.

But, that is to say, but they lost the first game of the World Finals. In this game, SKT took a TP lead from Yasuo, driving the rhythm and playing RNG. A wave of zero-for-four teamfights started, with no solution, and suffocating chronic death. , still like a huge stone.

Everyone in the LPL felt heavy in their hearts.

"Reaper really needs to be targeted, and it should be targeted effectively."

"Just like Yasuo in this game, it's useless for you to target him. You have to make a difference. Otherwise, once Yasuo gets going, SKT will have an engine, causing a series of butterfly effects."

As Miller said this, the doll remained silent.

In fact, he was thinking about a very abstract question at the moment.

——Reaper, do you really have no heart?

He has never considered that if today in Shanghai, the LPL was 'deprived' of the official international honor it won last year, which was the only official international honor in history, what kind of change would happen to his domestic reputation?

Well...the winner is king, and the loser is the king of Weibo.

In e-sports, maybe Reaper had successfully become a world-class super player at that time, and he didn’t care about the reaction of a small number of people in the LPL region...

"Now it's just a BO5 loss, we still have a chance, RNG, come on!"

A voice filled with complex emotions fell.

Everyone in SKT on the field had picked up their red jackets and walked out of the competition room. Facing the weird and noisy atmosphere in Shanghai, they returned to the backstage with expressionless faces.

【I am super! Familiar expressionless face! 】

[The feeling of oppression is coming. 】

[No, are you really going to win the championship? No, Chen Sheng, Chen Sheng, please do something, woo woo woo...]

[Chen Sheng, our RNG was wrong, is it too late for our RNG to kowtow to you now? 】

[If SKT wins today, I will be their lifelong fan! 】

【? ? ? 】

[What does it have to do with SKT? Isn’t this because your RNG is not strong enough? 】

[Indeed, it has nothing to do with SKT. It should be said that if Chen Sheng steps on LPL to win the championship today, I will be his black fan for life! 】

【6! 】

There were numerous barrages, and the ocean came crashing down.

RNG lost to SKT in the first game of today's MSI finals, which was watched by millions.

Everyone in the LPL has begun to panic.

Although they had expected this kind of scene before the game started.

After all, these three words SKT have given people a sense of oppression and dominance this year and in the past year. There is no doubt about it.

Like the only big devil in the World Championship, the ultimate BOSS, no one can remain indifferent when facing SKT.

Especially, it’s still SKT now.

But when it really happened, everyone couldn't help but feel a little more panic when watching SKT bulldoze RNG's crystal base in the first game.

There is still a dream, what if it comes true?

But now, 1/3 of the dream has been shattered.

"How to do how to do?"

Backstage, Bai Xing's face turned red. He also saw the sentence on the barrage [Chen Sheng, our RNG admitted our mistake. Is it too late to kowtow now? 】.

Ok…

Although it is shameful, it is related to the world championship and RNG's "Imperial Dominance".

If admitting mistakes and kowtowing can help RNG win the championship and get that terrifying profit and popularity, Bai Xing may really consider it.

The issue is…

impossible.

Chen Yiqiu, a wolf cub, has no humanity at all and no patriotic feelings at all. When he plays against other teams, he plays at the same level. When playing against RNG, he is full of firepower and frequently uses big moves.

They completely grabbed RNG and the LPL division and beat them up.

Did my LPL provoke you? If you treat us like this, will you really not consider coming back to waste money in the future?

Bai Xing's face was bitter and he was lamenting in his heart.

"Boss... there's news from the official side."

Su Xiaofei walked into the competition room with a heavy expression on his face: "They said we must win the championship, otherwise they will consider reducing their investment in resources for us in the Summer Split and this year's S Split."

Bang!

Bai Xing smashed the water glass and yelled: "This is too much! LPL officials are just dogs! They will follow whoever gives them meat!"

"Next door to the horse riding category, we haven't lost yet. Have you seen their faces? We are the overall champions of this year's LPL Spring Split!"

Su Xiaofei shivered and said nothing.

However, the LPL officials are now pressing harder and harder, which indeed makes him feel a little bit dissatisfied.

Because when Chen Yiqiu was targeted, it was definitely not just RNG that contributed. Officials and even teams like EDG were more or less involved.

The same is true officially.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have made such a big noise in the first place.

At that time, everyone was laughing and sharing the traffic cake and calling each other brothers while eating human blood steamed buns. But now it seems that Chen Yiqiu really has a hope of defeating the LPL and winning the championship, so he will be more aggressive at home.

Immediately the Sichuan Opera face-changing began.

Is this the official attitude?

I'm afraid it's a dog!

Cursing in his heart, Bai Xing calmed down a little when everyone in RNG returned to the lounge.

After looking at everyone's faces, I found that no one was too frustrated, and I felt relieved.

That's right, BO5, how can you not lose a game? Now we are one point ahead of the opponent, there is a chance, there is still a chance.

"The second game..."

Bai Xing opened his mouth to speak comforting words.

"We will win!"

Liu Shiyu was categorical: "Boss, you don't need to say more. We have figured out SKT's routine. Yasuo was very uncomfortable in the early stages of the first game. From now on, we will definitely win."

Bai Xing didn't trust Malphite's brain and turned to look at Mata.

"OK."

Mata is also very confident.

Because their early targeting in the last game was extremely effective. If SKT hadn't forced a TP difference because of Yasuo, in five minutes, the rhythm would have been completely under RNG's control.

Therefore, according to their private preparations during this period, as long as they maintain their mentality, they have already seen the hope of defeating SKT.

Seeing Mata also nodding, the team members maintained a good mentality.

Bai Xing's mood improved slightly, but he also secretly cursed himself for not having a city.

Not even comparable to a few half-grown boys.

"But we have to face up to the failure of the last game."

Mata added: "Reaper's condition today is too high. He is much stronger than expected."

"Yes, Chen Yiqiu is very strong, in all aspects."

Xiaohu doesn't have any psychological baggage. The entire MSI has been going on so far, and SKT has captured RNG three times. He has already realized how terrifying Chen Yiqiu is now.

"Yes, he is very strong, but I still have to catch him as a super ghost."

Liu Shiyu nodded.

"Okay, let's review it and prepare for the next game."

Coach Fly saw that morale was working, and his low mood was also swept away, and he immediately began to arrange BP and tactics for the match point battle.

In this way, time passes.

ten minutes later.

SKT and RNG are on stage again.

The guide screen switches and BP begins.

In the second BO5 game of the MSI finals, SKT came to the blue side and RNG to the red side.

SKT's bans are still the same, the same tree, Poppy, and the Tsar.

The same is true for RNG. Jace, Jian Ji, and Ike continue to be banned in sea view rooms.

The ban ended with both sides, and SKT took advantage of blue to grab Lucian first.

RNG backhandedly got the blind monk who failed to get the incense pot in the first game, and then got the bottom lane EZ.

When it was SKT's turn, they did not leave the suspense of the top laner that everyone was paying attention to until the end. SKT locked in a hero that was reasonable but unexpected.

——"Slaughter! Massacre!"

Desert Butcher, Crocodile.

"It's Crocodile again... This is a top laner that Reaper used very often at this year's MSI, but other players rarely use it."

Seeing this choice, Wawa couldn't help but sigh: "He is really confident."

"Yes, choose the crocodile first. It can only be said that only Reaper dares to do this at present."

The factory director nodded beside him.

Because Crocodile is not popular in this version, he is just a sewer top laner.

Normally, forget about the second move. If you choose first, you are already crazy about Chen Yiqiu, so you will definitely choose Counter Crocodile as the second move.

In other words, SKT's move is equivalent to actively letting Chen Yiqiu be defeated by RNG Counter.

But having said that, Reaper's crocodile has already proven its strength, and this is not the first time it has been countered by Counter.

"In this case, RNG should be bright... Jace is banned, and I feel that other heroes will be taken."

Miller looked at the big screen.

really.

After RNG decided to select Crocodile for the second game, RNG discussed for a moment and decisively took out an equally unexpected hero.

The Hand of Noxus, Darius.

"Noshou... If Noshou beats the crocodile, this version should have some say." Seeing the selection of this hand, Miller analyzed: "Although he is not a very tough Counter, except for Quinn, Noshou has already He is a very good choice among the heroes released outside."

When it comes to the top laner's ability to restrain the crocodile, Quinn is undoubtedly the one who restrains the crocodile the most.

The problem is that in the current version, Quinn has no choice at all, and the matchup between Nuoshou and Crocodile is a slightly worse choice. Combined with the various top heroes in this year's MSI, Nuoshou is the best choice.

The powerful crocodile can't beat Nuo Shou before level 3, let alone push the line.

And even after reaching level three, Nuoshou is not afraid of crocodiles.

It can be said that RNG's choice is very tricky.

"Similarly...this is also the impact Reaper has had on the current road environment."

"If I remember correctly, before Reaper, the top laners in all major competitions this year were not keen on heroes like Crocodile, Norseman, or even Jace Riven at all."

Wawa sincerely praised: "At this point, I have to say that he has changed a lot of the ecological environment on the road."

"Similarly, it also makes the top route, which had few shots twenty minutes ago, become more exciting and exciting."

"Yes…"

Everyone around them nodded.

Although they support RNG, in e-sports, strength is paramount.

Chen Yiqiu has used his strength and performance to gain recognition from most people.

at the same time.

BP is also continuing.

After RNG selected Nuoshan, SKT took out Ryze and jungler Kindred.

Blank once again got Kindred, which relieved SKT supporters who had always thought he was a breakthrough.

RNG takes auxiliary Thresh again.

In this way, BP continues until the end, and RNG has only the last unit in hand with no choice.

Since SKT's core mid-to-top heroes in this game have been determined in advance, and Bang also snatched Lucian, RNG does not need to specifically counter to stay in the last position, because they have already determined the counter heroes before.

The reason why they left the last mid laner unselected was because they were still struggling with which hero they should use to restrain Ryze.

Ryze doesn't have many natural enemies, but he also has many.

But the only ones suitable to appear in the current arena...are the murlocs and...Yasuo.

Yes.

Don't look at Chen Yiqiu's previous use of Yasuo in the top lane. In fact, Yasuo first appeared in the professional arena and has been wreaking havoc in the middle lane.

And because of the unique hero mechanism and W wind wall, it is very restrained against long-handed mages like Ryze.

Do you want to choose?

RNG is in trouble.

In the end, Xiaohu made up his mind: "Just Yasuo..."

After a pause, his eyes were unusually confident: "Chen Yiqiu dared to play Yasuo on the top lane in the finals. I am a mid laner, or Counter Ryze, why don't I dare to take it?"

"Am I the one competing against my opponent?"

"...Then take it."

Coach Fly saw that he had said this, so he no longer worried about whether Chen Yiqiu had just used Yasuo in the last game, and whether RNG would be under pressure if he used it again in this game.

On the fifth floor of RNG, under everyone's attention, Yasuo was selected and locked in seconds.

Wow!

moment.

There were cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami from the Oriental Sports Center, as well as question marks and tigers from the major live broadcast rooms.

"Yasuo!! Locked in seconds!"

"RNG!! RN~~G!!"

Several LPL commentators reached climax instantly.

With this choice of people and this attitude, who wouldn’t be excited to see it?

"After Reaper took out Yasuo in the last game, RNG, after Reaper, also locked Yasuo in the World Finals, on top of Shanghai!"

"I think no matter what the result of the game is, we should give RNG applause. They are really confident today!",

As soon as he finished speaking, the noise in the audience continued to rise.

Mingkai couldn't help but praise: "Let's not talk about anything else... Yasuo Tiankryze."

"Ryze is a hero who has no damage in the early laning and has a high mana consumption. Yasuo's passive + W wind wall, and his knock-up and face-to-face displacement... If you choose this, Faker will be very uncomfortable in this game."

Miller was equally elated and impressed by RNG's selection for today's second game.

It’s not just Yasuo in the middle who has a natural advantage against Ryze.

On the road, Nuoshou beat the crocodile and also occupied a strong position.

This is the difference between the blue side and the red side.

After getting the red side, RNG selected two players in succession, directly hitting all SKT's counters.

The core of this SKT team is actually top mid. Once one person loses his voice, Bang's output environment and situation will become extremely bad, causing SKT to lose the game.

"You have to admit that RNG's lineup selection for this game was too good."

A person who doesn’t play games commented: "Putting aside any...region status, purely from the most scientific point of view, I think RNG's lineup in the second game completely beat SKT."

"Yes, the mid-to-upper core has a natural disadvantage. Blank's Kindred also lacks the ability to drive the rhythm in the early stage. It is equivalent to saying that SKT has given up its early and mid-term rhythm to us."

Miller had an unconcealable smile on his face.

Ming Kai just nodded and was about to speak.

suddenly.

Things started to change off the field again.

This time it was no longer cheers, but an uproar filled with consternation and confusion.

——"SKT! What do you mean, why was Ryze switched to the top lane...the crocodile...is the crocodile in the middle?!"

"In this game, Ryze is the top laner and Crocodile is the mid laner?!"

"what?"

Amid the constant astonishment, after the players were completely confirmed on the court, SKT's Ryze avatar, who was originally in the middle, suddenly appeared in the top lane.

The Crocodile came to the middle.

In this game, SKT's top laner was not Crocodile at all, but Bald Ryze.

And the mid laner was not Ryze, but Crocodile who was chosen first!

The extreme swing instantly turned the lineup that seemed to be suppressed by RNG at every turn into an anti-suppression.

Because in this version, Yasuo is better than Kryze, but Crocodile is also better than Yasuo.

Since it was close combat, Yasuo's W wind wall was almost half destroyed when facing Crocodile. In addition, Crocodile's single-line burst, displacement, control, and blood rage also had no blue bar.

These are Yasuo's biggest headaches.

Similarly, the top laner is most afraid of heroes with long hands, although this version of Bald has very low early burst and insufficient mana.

But because of his long hands and his own directional control, a hero like Ryze who needs stable development can completely develop safely on the top lane.

Unless mistakes are made, Nuoshou will not be able to gain much advantage online.

In the middle and late stages, it was Ryze who beat up the dog-walker Nostalgia.

"SKT!! This team is too scary! What their BP did...swung two positions in a row, and in an instant, they were restrained and turned into anti-countermeasures!"

The Roaring Emperor couldn't hide his wonder: "The perfect swing position turns decay into magic!"

"Yes, once this swing is confirmed, RNG's middle and top players become the ones who feel uncomfortable in the early stage. RNG... feels uncomfortable!"

Li Xianjing took a deep breath and said a wise saying: "In the current SKT team, when two superhero players become teammates, there are really too many changes in BP and lineup."

"Catch the opponent off guard and behead him sadly!"

There was a storm off the court, but the audience and commentators in the LPL division fell into an eerie silence, and they became panicked and worried.

"This...this caused..."

"No, you can play Ryze...and Faker, you play the crocodile mid laner?!"

"Are the identities of warrior and mage interchangeable?"

"Well…"

The game has entered the Summoner's Rift, but everyone still feels frustrated at being played like a toy.

Including...RNG.

"Ryze on the road... Mid laner Crocodile, SKT... Is this team really working so hard? How many tactics and things have been prepared for the finals..."

"Li Yuanhao, please be careful."

"What are we going to do? The plan is completely disrupted."

"Capture Ryze, the core is still the same, just capture Ryze."

Apart from his initial confusion, Liu Shiyu had already recovered, his eyes bright and clear: "Before Ryze, the hero's lunch box and the Crystal Tears came out, he had no fighting power at all, and he had not yet moved."

"The route is so long. As long as you catch him a few times, it's actually much easier to target than a crocodile."

Hearing the sound, everyone was startled and then reacted.

Ryze has always been a hero in the middle and upper lanes, but why didn't anyone think that SKT would dare to play like this before?

This is because the hero Ryze has been cut several levels in the current version. At the same time, the route is too long, and Ryze, who is weak in the early stage, is extremely easy to target.

Is it easier to catch a crocodile with E, or a crispy mage Ryze with no movement?

The answer is self-evident.

And on the other side.

Chen Yiqiu, who worked with his teammates to maintain a good vision and returned to the road, was also asked about related topics by his teammates and expressed concern.

In response, he looked at Li Sang Hyuk confidently: "Sang Hyuk, I don't know if you have heard a word recently."

"Ok?"

Li Sang Hyuk was startled.

"The era of the Demon King has passed, now is the era of the God King."

Chen Yiqiu looked at the bald Ryze on the screen: "After this game, Ryze will no longer be called the Demon King, he will be called the God King!"
