I'm the chef in T1. The fatter Li Ge is, the stronger I am.

Chapter 159: 30! The fastest clear of the legend! The perfect ending of the summer season!

The time comes on June 9th.

The LPL Summer Finals officially started.

And before the game starts.

The big screen was playing the 'declaration of war' videos that had been recorded in advance by both teams before the game.

Mingkai, with an expressionless face, was looking straight at the camera. His emotionless dead fish eyes combined with his efforts to pretend to be serious made the audience want to laugh.

As the director outside the camera gives the signal.

Mingkai slowly opened his mouth and spoke out the classic trash talk he had prepared in advance: "I feel that the overall strength of TOP1 is just like this. I admit that they are really strong in the spring season, but you have also seen their performance in the summer season. The whole team is basically carried by Xiaoyu. We have found a way to defeat TOP1, so the winner of this final will definitely be us!"

The voice just fell.

The scene immediately switched to Wang Yu.

"The one standing in front of you now is the 2016 LCK Spring and Summer Champion, the 2016 LCK Rookie of the Year, the 2016 and 2017 MSI Champion Jungler, the 2016 World Championship Finals World Championship FMVP, the 2017 LPL Spring Champion, and the world's number one jungler officially certified by Riot Games!"

The two star players finished their speeches.

For an instant.

The atmosphere on the entire scene reached its peak.

Countless audiences cheered and screamed, waving their cheering sticks wildly.

Even the three commentators with the best sound recording equipment could clearly hear the cheers from the audience in the live broadcast room.

at the same time.

Player channel here.

This is different from the previous opaque door that prevented the audience seats outside the stadium from being seen.

this time.

The authorities deliberately removed the door curtain that was in the way.

Players and coaches from both teams stood in the corridor below the stairs, and looking up they could see the starry galaxy made up of glow sticks.

Except for Imp who was leaning against the wall and shaking his legs, the others were chatting with each other.

MingKai: "Xiaoyu, did you watch the LCK Summer Finals?"

Wang Yu: "I saw it. SKT recovered well, but unfortunately they still couldn't beat ROX."

"Peanut was so aggressive that he beat Blank in all four games of the finals. Isn't it said that Koreans respect their seniors?"

"Um, is it possible that Peanut has more experience than Blank?"

"No way? Blank looks much older than Peanut!"

"Peanut is two months older than Blank. When these two meet in private, Blank has to take the initiative to call Peanut "Wanghu brother."

"That's outrageous, I thought Peanut was one year younger than Blank!"

The content of the chat between Wang Yu and Ming Kai was too weird.

Meiko, who is always talkative, couldn't help but join in after hearing this: "Brother Yu, when you played in the LCK last year, did you also call other people "brother" or "senior" when you met them offline?"

"Yeah," Wang Yu carefully recalled the situation last year and replied, "If the host is not considered a professional player, then I have never called him once. After all, we don't meet each other at ordinary times. We always stay in the lounge before the game and go back to the club after the game."

"Do you want to know why?" kkoma said, "OGN is the predecessor of LCK. At that time, the competition venues were not perfect. Many spectators would run to the team lounge and wait. When they saw their favorite players appear, they would rush up to take photos with them."

“When we lost to other teams, the players who performed poorly would be surrounded and scolded by the audience before they even returned to the locker room.”

"Wow~ The scene was terrifying just by looking at it, and it's still terrifying when I think about it now!"

"Anyway, after the LCK region is established, no one other than team members and staff will be allowed to enter."

"As coaches and team managers, we usually ask the players to stay in the lounge and try not to hang around the backstage area to prevent the same thing from happening again."

kkoma’s remarks.

Obviously, the little ones who had never experienced the LCK environment were shocked.

Fans in the LPL region may be a little crazy, but it is only limited to online talk. It is rare to encounter such crazy things offline now.

As for the LCK region, perhaps because of its connection with compulsory military service, Korean fans have a very strong execution ability. When they say they want to form a group to do something offline, they will just make an appointment and start squatting.

Just when everyone wanted to chat for a while.

The staff at the door suddenly said, "Top 1 team players and coaches, please get ready. You will be on stage in about a minute."

Center stage of the finals.

The championship trophy was silver in color, with a pure Chinese dragon coiled around the entire cup. It was shining brightly under the lights.

Next to the championship trophy.

Ren Dong, the official host most loved by countless players, is now passionately introducing the players of the upcoming teams to the audience.

"Let's give the warmest and most passionate applause, please come out!!!"

“This year’s LPL’s strongest dark horse freshman team!”

"T!O!P!ONE~~~"

Feeling the atmosphere brought by the audience, Ren Dong's voice couldn't help but rise a few notches, and he needed to lean back slightly to be able to shout out the team name completely.

And when all members of the TOP1 team stood on the left side of the summer season championship trophy.

He continued shouting:

"Let us once again give the same warm and passionate applause, please come out!!!"

"The top LPL team! They will never be absent!"

"E! D! G!"

Arrange in order and matters.

The EDG players stood on the right side of the championship trophy.

This is the end.

The opening ceremony of the LPL Summer Finals has ended.

Ren Dong quickly left the field and turned the camera to the three people in the commentary booth.

Wang Duoduo, Guan Zeyuan and Jide did not leave any time and immediately continued the topic.

"We just watched the pre-match declaration of war. Does anyone have anything to say?" Guan Zeyuan asked.

"If Emolove hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have realized that this newcomer who has only been in the professional arena for less than two years has already won the LCK Grand Slam and may become the unprecedented double-division Grand Slam player!" Wang Duoduo still supports Wang Yu and always keeps the topic on Wang Yu.

"Teacher Duoduo, let me remind you that the title of double-district Grand Slam player should be more rigorous. The jungler position should be included. Because TOP1 won the summer championship, Duke, who is also on the TOP1 team, will also achieve the double-district Grand Slam achievement." Jide said hurriedly.

"Yes, I should have been more rigorous. I'm sorry!" Wang Duoduo admitted his mistake immediately.

"Before the game officially starts, I have some information to share with the audience!"

Guan Zeyuan raised the small card in his hand and said in a very fast and clear speed: "The three of us commentators guessed the final score of this final. I think the TOP1 team will beat the EDG team 3:1, and Teacher Wang Duoduo thinks that the TOP1 team will beat the EDG team 3:0. Only Teacher Ji De made a different choice and chose that EDG will beat the TOP3 team 2:1."

When Guan Zeyuan said this, the fans at the scene also started shouting.

"TOP1 - EDG!"

"EDG 1- TOP!"

The atmosphere at the scene did not diminish at all, and even became more and more lively.

develop to the end.

The audience simply omitted the score and directly shouted the team they supported.

The unique crisp sound of entering the BP interface can be heard throughout the venue.

on the big screen.

The game screen has appeared.

The first game of the Summer Season Finals.

EDG did not win the rock-paper-scissors round and could only start as the red side. Because the hero pools of the junglers on both sides did not overlap, Abu could only leave one of the ban slots for Wang Yu's Nidalee as usual, and the other two ban slots could only be given to Xayah/Rakan and any T0-level ADC.

"The top 1 team on the blue side, the first floor picked Galio, who has the highest pick rate in the current version!"

"The red team EDG used Mingkai's Prince, who has been used frequently in recent games, and Scout's Lucian, who has a nearly 80% win rate!"

Abu and kkoma are also old rivals.

It was clear to both of them.

The summer championship is important, but once compared with the world championship, the summer championship seems insignificant.

therefore.

Abu and kkoma tacitly chose not to use any routine lineups, and simply competed between coaches on their understanding of their own players and versions.

It's the blue side's turn to choose.

According to kkoma's arrangement, Wang Yu directly locked in Nightmare, a slow-paced jungler who suddenly became available due to version changes.

Xiye grabbed the Annie who had not been banned yet for imp.

Nightmare, Galio.

This mid-jungle combination will be extremely strong after reaching level 6, but this is only limited to the early and middle stages. In the middle and late stages after 25 minutes of game time, the flaws of this mid-jungle combination will be fully exposed.

Short Legs.

No displacement.

If the situation is tense and there is no teammate to help, and Nightmare uses his ultimate to enter the field, Galio must also use his ultimate to follow him in, otherwise Nightmare's life cannot be saved at all.

An ADC like Annie, who has both output and the ability to buff the team, is a perfect match for this mid-jungle combination.

As for hitting the road.

EDG was still very considerate and gave Mouse the big tree, allowing him to play alone and cope with the pressure.

This is different from RNG, which has currently figured out a four-protect-one tactical system on its own.

Although the lineup system used by EDG changes with the version, its core remains unchanged.

The two sacrificial positions, top lane and jungle, give up part of the economy, which is then eaten up by the team's two core players, the mid laner and ADC, who quickly grow and develop and then take over the game.

And after seeing through this.

kkoma's head also had a flash of inspiration. He suddenly had an idea to let Nightmare go to the top lane to fight against Maokai, and then gave Wang Yu a Centaur who also had strong team-opening skills!

Two jungle heroes suddenly appeared in the TOP1 lineup, and both of them have strong SOLO capabilities in the jungle.

The unique jungle hero swing that only belongs to the TOP1 team completely numbed Abu and Mingkai.

Before entering the loading screen.

EDG is still struggling with whether to use Maokai or Jarvan II as the top laner.

The right choice. No worries in laning.

Wrong choice.

The jungle is suffering!

At last.

EDG still chose to let Maokai go top.

And the result.

The match between Maokai and Nightmare cannot be said to be evenly matched. It can only be said that the two were evenly matched, and they traded damage to each other for a full fifteen minutes.

EDG's early rhythm remained relatively stable.

Wang Yu tried to sprint several times but failed to trick Mouse and Scout into flashing, nor did he succeed in luring MingKai out of the jungle.

However, as the game enters the mid-term rhythm.

After Xiye's Galio developed and had equipment that allowed him to fight and resist.

The rhythm of the entire game began to tilt towards the blue side.

Two consecutive unreasonable four-on-two attacks crossed the bottom lane to catch deft and meiko, and successfully fed imp.

25 minutes.

A decision to rush the dragon forced EDG, who were hiding near the highland tower, to come over to join the team fight.

As Nightmare uses his ultimate skill, the enemy's vision is weakened.

Centaur used the charge effect of his ultimate to rush into the crowd from the wall to scare three people, then used sprint and the speed bonus of his E skill to get behind Deft's Tristana and kick him back.

Galio landed and knocked two people away while taunting four people.

The team battle ended instantly.

0 for 5!

In the commentary box.

Guan Zeyuan shouted with his usual passion: "Congratulations to the TOP1 team! They took the lead in winning the first game in this BO5 final! The score has changed to 1:0!"

"Coach kkoma is worthy of being the world's number one coach. He cleverly changed the jungler during the BP phase and moved Nightmare to the top lane. He then picked Centaur, which made Jarvan dare not gank casually in the early stage, allowing Nightmare to develop steadily in the laning phase and turn on his ultimate to turn off the lights in the mid-to-late stage team battles."

Halftime.

Abu was frantically giving his players "lessons" in the locker room, circling the serious mistakes they had made in the previous game, and then began to explain what should be done in the second game.

Plan ahead of time what lineup to use for the second game.

This is not very realistic.

after all.

The number of ban positions has increased from three to five, and there are two rounds.

There are huge variables involved.

If the coach continues to do what he did before, he will say a lot of nonsense to the players before the game even starts.

If the opponent bans the core hero of your lineup at the beginning of BP, all the previous arrangements will be in vain.

Therefore, in current games, basically after the first round of BP ends, starting from the second round of BP, the coach will fill in the lineup while explaining to the players how to proceed and what issues they need to pay attention to.

And with the start of the second game.

kkoma clearly felt that EDG's thinking had undergone a drastic change.

The top lane is no longer Maokai, but a SOLO hero who prefers to single-handedly push the opponent: Shen.

Although this hero was nerfed by the designer, it is not fatal. He can still shine on the field. If he develops well, he can still participate in team battles in the middle and late stages. The second stage of Q can cause real damage and can kick off half of the opponent's ADC's health bar.

The jungler also changed from choosing a hero like Jar Jar who had almost no room for error to choosing Sejuani who had a chance to make up for mistakes even if they made them accidentally.

And faced with this situation.

kkoma was also very straightforward. He directly gave Wang Yu Kindred, who needed to develop but had strong fighting ability.

Two shooters + two front rows with one support.

It is also a double shooter combination.

But it’s different from EDG’s lineup in the first game.

As a jungler.

First of all, Kindred can ensure his own development, and secondly, every layer of mark obtained will enhance his own combat power.

The strongest characters in League of Legends are heroes like Nasus, Kindred, and LeBlanc who can stack skills/attributes infinitely.

Although it is very weak in the early stage.

But what if it gets delayed to the later stages?
That was the only big daddy of the entire game.

Although until the end of the game, there are only six levels of Kindred Mark.

But when the post-match data panel appeared on the big screen, everyone discovered that Kindred's output accounted for an astonishing 40%!

Imp, who also belongs to the output position, always has economic sources and a better output environment in team battles, but his output accounts for only 39%!

Although this data is also quite scary.

But everyone knows it very well.

The reason why these two double Cs in TOP1 can achieve such a high output share is purely because EDG's jungler Sejuani is too top-level. She is being hit all the time, and her damage resistance data even reaches 200%!

Let's say that.

Pig girl with a total of 4000 blood can withstand 8000 damage!

In the early stage, he frequently returns to the city to replenish blood. In the middle and late stages, he relies on the Berserker Armor to stay away. When he is beaten, he hides in the bushes, and after a few seconds, he "revives" with full blood and comes out to be beaten again.

That's the way.

Around 34 minutes into the game, Sejuani even managed to use up all of Kindred's mana, almost helping the team to turn the tables.

But unfortunately in the end

2: 0!

This BO5 suddenly reached the match point without anyone noticing.

Mingkai felt that he seemed to have found a way to "limit" Wang Yu, and in the third game he volunteered to play Pig Girl again.

Ever since.

This was a life-and-death game for EDG, and the team's main player Mingkai took out Sejuani again.

But it's also halftime.

Abu took action.

kkoma also took action. He first gave everyone a bowl of very delicious chicken soup for the soul, and then decided to use a revised lineup from the QG team in the third game.

"Top lane Gnar! Jungle Troll! Mid lane Kled! ADC Sivir! Support Titan!"

"hiss!"

The three people in the commentary booth gasped at the same time.

Chopper team!
But...it's not quite the same!
Gnar can deal damage based on a percentage of maximum health, Troll's ultimate can steal the enemy's front-row double resistance, and although mid-lane Kled is unpopular, he can deal high burst damage with the help of the giant Hydra and can be played as an assassin.

With the help of her four teammates who can rush into the face, Sivir will be very comfortable in the solo output environment in team battles. She is also one of the few ADCs who can deal tons of damage and protect herself without relying on [Ardent Censer].

The game started in less than five minutes.

The Troll completely bought a house in Sejuani's jungle area, constantly putting pressure on EDG's mid and top lanes, making it impossible for them to focus on the laning phase.

Faced with Wang Yu's blatant invasion.

Mr. Mingkai can only try to gank the bottom lane to open a breakthrough.

But it's a pity that the hero Sivir is difficult to be killed by the opposing jungler unless she actively seeks death, not to mention that there is a Titan next to her who can use the Q skill to interrupt Sejuani's Q skill.

20 minutes.

The economic gap between the two sides is stuck at around 500 yuan, and the most amazing thing is that there has been no kill until now, which is a rare thing for the LPL region where the first blood must be exploded within ten minutes.

And I saw the five members of the TOP1 team arrive near the dragon pit on time again.

EDG, which had lost its Baron to the opponent in two consecutive games, decided to give up everything this time and fight for the Baron to make a comeback.

But did not expect
TOP1 didn't even think about rushing the big dragon.

Wait until EDG completely enters the jungle area and has no way to retreat.

Sivir suddenly used his ultimate skill, and followed Kled on his fearless lizard to create an acceleration channel.

The three short-legged monsters, Troll, Gnar, and Titan, seemed to be powered by motors and charged forward in sync with Kled.

The team battle scenes presented by this face-to-face lineup have an amazing visual impact.

EDG's double front-row lineup system is basically useless.

Pig girl, whose double resistance was taken away by the troll, has not died yet.

Kalista seemed to have displacement, but in fact she would die if she was focused on. With both skills in place, she was directly killed by an AQA stick from the troll that came close to her.

A team wipe + a big dragon BUFF.

The rhythm gears belonging to TOP1 finally started to turn.

25 minutes.

In front of EDG's highland tower.

Kled activated his ultimate skill once again and led his brothers to launch a final charge.

Because it spans across half of the map, it rushes directly from the highland tower to the opposite front tower.

Everyone is more or less out of touch.

Although Sivir was the only one left alive in the final team battle, the game was still able to end without any major incidents.

The situation has been decided.

As the EDG base crystal exploded.

Guan Zeyuan blurted out immediately.

"Congratulations to TOP1 for defeating EDG 3:0 and becoming the champion of this year's LPL Summer Season!"

"They will go to this year's World Finals as the No. 1 seed of LPL!"

"Although EDG lost in the finals, they still have a chance to compete with RNG for the No. 2 seed in LPL tomorrow."

"Thank you for watching today's game. See you tomorrow!"
