Full-time: Starting from Ye Xiu vs. Faker

Chapter 434 Evolutionary Team

"Although there are some changes, overall, the taste is still right." After playing against SKT, Zhang Jiale licked his lips with satisfaction.

"The new top laner feels pretty good when he fights, not as timid as his predecessor." Sun Zheping smiled.

"We were suppressed... We must be in bad shape!" Only Xiye in the middle lane looked a little sad.

He found that his opponent, who had been on equal terms with him in the past, actually had the ability to suppress him to a certain extent in the first game today.

Even if he was a little more careless, he might have given Faker a highlight shot of a solo kill.

This was a little hard for him to accept.

I guess he'll have to practice more today.

Compared to the tough battle next door, the atmosphere in Fanhua's first match against LCK was obviously much more relaxed.

Just like the beating they gave to C9 on the first day, the feeling SKT gave to Fanhua was not much different from that during the MSI period.

Of course, in terms of personal ability, both the three new members and the Mapo double C have evolved compared to spring.

But in terms of overall tactics, there is not much difference.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m doing scientific research, but I can also detect some flaws in BP.

It gives people a very subtle feeling.

Therefore, even if Faker and other players did cause some troubles to Fanhua with their personal abilities, this match was far less intense than the game between Blue Rain and Samsung next door.

"Do you think they are isolated cases or a common phenomenon?" After laughing, Sun Zheping became serious.

"It's hard to say." Zhang Jiale frowned slightly.

The two teams that have already fought against LPL have shown two completely different states.

Although SKT has made considerable progress compared to MSI, it still seems to be within the scope of understanding. It feels like an enhanced version of the SKT in the spring, with no essential difference.

There is a threat, but it is limited, and it seems that they are on the same level as G2.

But SSG gave people a completely different feeling. What they showed had never appeared in any region outside of LPL before.

The most intuitive feeling is that they are a team that is truly qualified to have a head-on conversation with LPL.

But ironically, SSG is only the third seed, while SKT is the second.

So was it SKT's luck that they got the second seed, or did SSG evolve during this period?
Or even more exaggerated, even in the group stage, SKT is still showing weakness to the enemy and hiding things?
no one knows.

"No matter what, it's always right to prepare for battle according to the highest standards." Lu Liang said with a smile on his face.

No matter what, Fanhua has already made a perfect start of 2-0 and the prospects are very good. As long as they perform normally in the future, they should be able to secure a place in at least the quarterfinals.

Even though we need to be more vigilant, there is no need to pour cold water on the players at this time.

"Okay, we played well today. We showed our stuff. Let's take a break first, and then we'll review the game."

……

the other side.

The defeat in the first battle dealt a bit of a blow to SKT's morale.

So much so that on the way out, they all lowered their heads slightly.

"I am responsible for this defeat. I didn't have enough tactical preparation and didn't have enough confidence to win the game before trying out a new, unreliable lineup. This is my responsibility."

As a result, when they returned to the stage, no one else said a word, but KkOma took the initiative to take all the blame.

Khan's eyes lit up and he was about to continue speaking according to the coach's words.

It can be said that he was beaten badly by Sun Zheping in this game. He had never seen a top laner with such terrifying lethality in LCK.

But his pride made him subconsciously want to pass on the blame, and when he saw someone else was about to take it, he immediately wanted to pass it on. But just when he was about to speak, Faker next to him glared at him, and the coldness in his eyes made him shudder, and the words that were about to come out of his throat suddenly stopped.

"We also had problems with our play, we just need to fight back next time."

"Coach, this is your first time coaching, so it's normal that you may not be strict enough." Rarely, it was Li Xianghe who took the initiative to comfort the coach.

KkOma was stunned and his eyes met with Lee Sang-hyuk who raised his head.

In each other's eyes, they saw something very similar.

Leadership, decisiveness, organization, talent...

And most importantly, an unparalleled desire to win.

Of course, KkOma didn't really think that he was solely responsible for taking the blame, but when morale is needed, he is the best person to take the blame.

He thought that since he was appointed by Lee Sang-hyuk and promoted to coach immediately after the summer season, it would not have any big impact even if he took the blame.

But it is obvious that Li Xianghe doesn't think so.

Although he couldn't explain it clearly, there were so many coaches for SKT to choose from at that time, why did they choose the person in front of him?

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Just because he has a face that can make his debut right away?
But he could vaguely sense that KkOma seemed to have some unique qualities that belonged to those who could seize victory.

Subsequent developments also confirmed to a certain extent how unique Lee Sang-hyuk's vision was at the time.

When KkOma arrived, SKT was a team with injured core players, a disastrous defeat in the summer season, and a panic-stricken team.

However, after KkOma arrived, in just over a month, without any competition training, he not only reunited the hearts of SKT players, but also, together with Lee Sang-hyeok, successfully united the fragmented LCK to a certain extent.

Although it cannot be compared with the neighboring LPL in terms of information disclosure and being consistent with the outside world, it is also a remarkable achievement.

In just one and a half months, KkOma brought SKT from their original state of demoralization and reduced combat effectiveness to a level slightly higher than that in the LCK.

But it is indeed difficult to defeat a top team like Fanhua just by doing this.
But what about giving him some more time?

By then, to what level will SKT evolve?
Li Xianghe doesn't know, but he looks forward to such a future.

But he is not satisfied with the current KkOma.

KkOma has brains, courage, and passion, but in Lee Sang-hyuk's eyes, the only thing he lacks is dignity and ruthlessness.

Maybe it’s a common problem among rookie coaches?

So Lee Sang-hyuk plans to use this opportunity to help KkOma establish his authority in the team.

Only a strong enough coach can win the hearts of SKT's proud and powerful soldiers.

He glanced around with the same gaze he had just used to glare at the Khan, and everyone he saw was silent.

Then he nodded to the coach and asked, "Then coach, what should we do next?"

The meaning is very clear. You are only responsible for doing the work, and I will take care of any disobedience.

There is no doubt that considering Faker's current status as a top star player in LCK, this is already a great honor.

KkOma was stunned for a moment, then nodded with amusement.

This child is truly the epitome of someone who takes action without hesitation upon thinking of something.

In this case, if I don’t come up with some useful information, it would seem that I am somewhat ungrateful for this “kindness of recognition”.

"Let's review the game first. Although we didn't win this game, combined with the previous LPL and MSI videos, we have a better understanding of the Fanhua team."

"As long as we can transform this understanding into combat power in time—"

He held up three fingers, a hint of confidence flashing across his face: "Three games at most, the outcome might be different."
