Full-time: Starting from Ye Xiu vs. Faker

Chapter 441 The Dust Settles (Part )

The civil war in LPL's first world game began in such a sad atmosphere.

Although there was a lot of sensationalism before the game, if the spectators had not been evacuated, it would have at least created a scene of widespread grief.

But when the real fight started, no one was vague and each one was more ruthless than the other.

After all, this spot in the quarterfinals... is so tempting!

Who doesn’t want to try a BO5 on a world-class stage?

Therefore, the doubts of some people, who are worried that some teams will choose to deliberately let the other team win because of the internal war in the division, have become a joke.

You're overthinking it. They fight the most fiercely precisely because they are one of our own. As long as the psychological counseling is done well, then we can do whatever we want!

However, if we must point out any difference from the public shouting matches between the two teams in the previous two games, it is probably the BP, which does seem to be a change from the previous method of strictly defending and banning the ace.

You know, Jia Shi and LGM may be the two teams that have played the most training games against each other among the teams participating in this World Championship.

In other words, you know the other person inside and out, and know exactly what he is good at and what he is not good at.

Therefore, the first two games ended in a 1:1 draw. During the BP, some of the two teams' best trump cards had already been removed, resulting in them having to use some second-tier lineups to fight.

Some uninformed commentators praised the BP game between the two teams as exciting, but that was actually the result of high-intensity training matches.

But now, when one of the two teams is destined to stop moving forward, it would be too boring to still defend tightly in BP.

Anyway, if both teams are free, it can't be considered as letting the game go.

Therefore, after carrying out the principle of leaving no regrets to the extreme, the BP in this game will be much more enjoyable.

Those players basically got their hands on all the signature heroes that they are good at, so they can have fun playing them to their heart's content.

Then, the direction of the subsequent game made the audience in the live broadcast room feel like they were dreaming back to two days ago.

Isn’t this... the feeling of KT playing against Happy?

Of course, this doesn't mean that the two teams really had an epiphany in desperate situations and evolved to the technical and tactical level of Xingxin and KT, but the feeling of this fierce attack really has that flavor.

The top, mid and jungle of both teams are their strong points, especially the mid and jungle, who are the core of the core of both teams and are both very aggressive.

The attack is particularly beautiful.

As for the bottom lane, although it is a relatively weak point, its good point lies in the word "all".

Neither side has a particularly strong bottom lane team, but at least during the laning phase, they can still fight back and forth.

Their individual offensiveness may not be that high, but they are the type who will immediately follow suit as long as the big brother dares to take the lead. In addition, the junglers on both sides also like to visit the bottom lane, so you catch me and I catch you, and the fight between the two sides is quite exciting.

It's fun to have some noobs fighting each other. After all, it's only S1 and the average audience level is not high. Most people won't be able to notice the occasional mistake.

All in all, at least the scene was really nice to watch.

The blood of the heroes spilled all over the canyon. As the two sides tore each other apart, under the mixed gazes of LPL fans, one side finally gained the upper hand.

Excellent Era.

Jia Shi chose a very suitable hero.

Xun's Nidalee and bin's Irelia have good adaptability to the version and players also like to play them.

Especially xun’s Leopard Woman.

Although there was indeed a famous scene in a parallel world where she was beaten into Soraka, her basic skills and skill hit rate are still very stable when her state of mind is not affected.

The target lottery hit rate is quite impressive.

When the team was busy controlling resources in the early stages, Jia Shi was indeed a little passive online.

But when he finished a wave and started to come out to catch people, the elusive javelin began to have some ghost story flavor.

With Nidalee as the axis, Jia Shi's brave top, mid and jungle players played brilliantly, which eventually helped them seize the initiative little by little.

Seeing LGM gradually falling into a passive position, LPL fans felt mixed emotions.

It’s not because of Jia Shi’s LCS identity, but because I feel sorry for the finale of a miracle.

After all, LGM is a team with insufficient foundation.

Apart from the fact that the level of the midfielder is really high, the individual abilities of their two wingers are indeed slightly behind.

The reason why we were able to make it to the round of 16 smoothly was basically due to the momentum brought by our passion and the overall tactical improvement brought about by the special training during that period.

These things are sufficient in the qualifying and group stages, but if you reach a higher level, the chain reaction caused by a slight difference in personal ability will become increasingly difficult to ignore.

With their current lineup and strength, it is indeed unrealistic to want to go further.

Even if they explode again today and make it to the quarterfinals, with seven teams left, which one can they compete with?

After all, G2's condition is already recovering.

The young people who struggled out of the relegation match sang and laughed all the way, and made rapid progress from the relegation match to the playoffs and then to the bubble match, all the way to the world championship. Finally, at the threshold of the top 16, it seemed that they were about to burn out.

How to say it, just like that famous basketball comic, the passionate story came to an abrupt end at the door of the top 16, which is really sad.

"Looks like we're going to die." The LGM players who had already retreated to a high place watched as the last vision at the dragon pit was eliminated. ADshaoye said this in a peculiar tone without caring whether there would be any controversy when the team voice chat was released later.

He believed that his level was only good enough to make the playoffs, but he was able to follow his big brothers all the way to the World Championship stage, and even tied with the strongest team in Europe in terms of record.

I didn’t feel much before when I was so excited that I thought I could do anything, but now when I think back on it, it was an incredible experience.

Even if we stop here...it doesn't seem like a loss?

It seems that the matter of changing the team name has to be postponed again.

But just because he thinks so doesn't mean others think so too.

"If everyone agrees to send it, then I'll give it a try." Guohao thought about it and said so.

"try what?"

"Just grab a dragon. If you grab it, maybe you can drag it back."

As he spoke, he controlled his Mantis and walked towards the dragon pit.

His performance in this game was not as good as the opponent's xun who got his favorite Leopard Girl, and he struggled a little bit against Mantis.

Now that he has one foot in the desperate situation, he feels that he should do something.

Even if it's just a futile attempt.

The mantis slowly came to the edge of the dragon pit, but unexpectedly there was no obstruction and it was not even discovered by the opponent.

After all, Jia Shi is still too young and lacks experience and concentration.

With such a huge advantage, they were a little less vigilant. When it came to the Baron, they instinctively thought that LGM was no longer able to get out of the high ground, so in order to maximize the speed of the Baron, almost five people crowded into the dragon pit.

There was only vision around the dragon pit, but not many supporting facilities. And the mobility of the mantis was not weak...

"Not defensive? Then I will take this dragon."

Guohao took a deep breath, recalled the last time he saw the dragon, and controlled the Mantis to rush towards the dragon pit.

The vision near the dragon pit certainly exposed his position, but the five members of Jia Shi who were crowded in the dragon pit obviously did not expect that he would dare to rush up alone at this time.

It was too late to intercept and interfere at this time. They didn't even stop the action of killing the big dragon before they could react.

The next moment, amid the panic howling in the voice chat of Jia Shi, Mantis leaped high and jumped into the dragon pit facing the firepower of five people.

For a moment——

"Red team (LGM) grabbed Baron Nashor!"

"E2.Bin has killed LGM.meteor!"

The two broadcasts were triggered almost at the same time, one after the other.

With a huge advantage, Jia Shi’s firepower was indeed strong. Guohao was instantly evaporated by the massive damage the moment he jumped into the dragon pit.

But in the moment before evaporation, he pressed the punishment button.
The speed was just a moment faster than Xun who was caught off guard.

“Oh my god! Even though they are in a desperate situation, the passionate young men of LGM still launched a crazy charge!”

"Flying Mantis in the clear sky used his own life to grab the life-saving dragon for the team!"

"No matter who wins or who loses, this will definitely be a famous scene in this World Championship that will be remembered by all players and spectators!"

"LGM, in the world competition, blossomed with their own splendor!"

Wei Chen's tone was almost tearful. The better the two sides in the civil war fought, the more distressed he felt.

As for the live broadcast room, there are only five unified letters left.

"LGMNB!"

Although LGM is currently at an absolute disadvantage, unless they can really maximize the value of the Baron buff with fewer people, the initiative is still firmly in the hands of Jia Shi.

But this did not prevent this life-threatening move to grab the dragon from instantly igniting the enthusiasm of all the audience.

By the way, some other things were also lit.

PSG's marketing department.

"Gentlemen, after seeing this, do you still have any objections to our future partners?"

“…But they still seem to be at a disadvantage.”

"So what? Even if they lose in a strong competition within their own division, there is no comparison value with other divisions. It only shows that they really have too many talented people."

“Maybe they are not the strongest team in LPL or the world, but they are definitely a team that can bring an exciting experience to the audience, right?”

As LGM did not perform very well in the group stage, PSG's intention to sponsor LGM was actually shaken to a certain extent.

After all, although the top 16 is not bad, it can only be regarded as the level of the first round of the main competition.
But think about it the other way around, three of the four strongest European teams have already been sent away, and the remaining one has barely regained his form, so it's hard to say how far he can go.

LGM has now put in such a brilliant performance, proving that they are at least a team that can bring a pleasant experience to the audience.

Under the premise that the Big Three are currently cautious in their investment intentions, the investment value of LGM has gradually increased.

"Then go and contact their people."

"It seems that in the future, PSG.LGM seems to have a chance to become our new bridgehead in China..."

……

"Brother Hao is still handsome." Bin exclaimed.

Although the five members of Jia Shi were stunned for a while after their dragon was snatched away, they finally accepted the reality little by little.

But even though LGM managed to grab the Baron, they couldn't launch a strong counterattack in a short period of time due to the death of their jungler and their lack of equipment, which gave them plenty of time to be confused.

"Oh my, I was too slow." Xun took the initiative to apologize. Fighting has never been his strong point.

"We are still not disciplined enough. We need to take the time to train more." Qiu Fei took a deep breath and gave instructions while reflecting.

"Let's win the game at hand first, we still have the advantage now!"

Due to their young age, Jia Shi's discipline is indeed a little lacking, but in addition to overflowing talent, youth also gives them a high-spirited mentality.

After the initial period of confusion, they quickly reorganized their offensive.

Although LGM, who had seized the Baron, could still hold out for a while, Jia Shi, whose minds had been calmed down by this wave of dragon theft, began to play in a more steady and flawless manner.

This sounded the final death knell for LGM.

Although Guohao, after his resurrection, controlled Mantis and bravely attacked Jia Shi's formation again, this time, he no longer had the chance to turn the tide.

Advance, team battle, team wipe, advance...

After the last 1-for-5 teamfight, Guohao was silent for a long time as he looked at the gray screen, then suddenly spoke:
"Sorry guys, looks like we'll have to carry the LGM name for another year."

"Let's come back next year!"

I thought he was being comforted, but the next moment, the voice suddenly erupted with thunderous cheers as if delayed:
"Fuck! Brother Hao!"

"What a handsome dragon snatcher!"

"It's no loss, even if I lose it's no loss!"

When the Baron was captured, the LGM players didn't even have time to celebrate, and immediately began to deploy defenses around the Baron buff to resist the next wave of advance from Excellent Era.

It was not until now, when the game was basically settled, that the joy of grabbing the big dragon invaded their senses like a delay.

Guohao looked at these good brothers who had extremely slow reaction times, and the depression of losing the game suddenly didn't seem so torturous anymore.

"Then let's come back next year? Then we can try to find a good sponsor for us, okay?"

"OK!" X4
Just like that, amid countless mixed congratulations in the live broadcast room, Excellent Era flattened the LGM base.

Since then, the first LPL team to be eliminated from the World Championship was born in this way.

LGM, eliminated in the round of 16.

LPL's undefeated record was broken by the civil war.

From then on, the top eight was determined.

LPL and LCK have each entered the Big Three, eyeing the throne and aiming for the championship.

LCS and LEC each retained their last single seedling, which is still alive and fighting towards death.
