LOL: Reborn in Season 3, Taming Lee Sang-hyeok

Shortly after returning to the club, the two younger brothers finished their meal with their family members and went back to the club.

In fact, Li Zhixing gave the players half a day off, which is his coaching rule.

Although the training tasks he assigned were heavy, as long as the games could be won, there would be plenty of rest time.

What's peculiar is that his athletes often practice extra on their own during holidays...

It can only be said that the pride of the victors naturally inspires ambition, and Li Zhixing simply made them the victors first.

The players will continue to improve until they win the game.

Li Zhixing was pleased to see such a scene. He went up to the third floor and quietly began editing the video.

As the club's owner and team leader, having to personally edit the video after winning a match is indeed a bit disheartening.

Once the club wins the championship and makes money, he definitely wants to hire an editor...

"Today's match was just an ordinary professional game. The opponent was the professional team LG-IM. You need to watch it carefully. Next time you make it to OGN, you'll know how to play..."

That very evening, the video appeared on Li Zhixing's channel.

The event's massive viewership was perfectly showcased at this moment.

In just one night, the number of views easily exceeded one million, and sales on major online stores also soared, with sales revenue approaching 100,000!

Even after deducting all costs and taxes, the final amount received is still nearly 30%!

The club has money to spend again.

......

The NLB playoffs continue.

After four intense best-of-three matches, the four semifinalists have finally been determined.

It's worth mentioning that three out of the four teams that came up from the NLB this time managed to upset the higher-ranked teams.

Besides RISE, SKT's second team and Najin's second team also won victories and advanced.

Only one other amateur team, BBT, was defeated by Najin Sword, failing to advance beyond the OGN level.

Therefore, the four teams that made it to the final NLB tournament were finally determined.

Upper bracket: RISE vs. Najin Sword

Bottom bracket: SKT vs. Najin Shield

It's quite interesting, really. The team that came down from the top of Najin Club won, and the second team that came up from the bottom also won. One team has taken over half of the NLB.

If the sword team and the shield team can meet in the finals, it would be a wonderful story.

But it is clear that this is very difficult.

One day later, on January 15th, the semi-finals began.

RISE will once again make their debut, facing Najin Sword.

As Najin's first team, Black Sword is stronger than the second team, White Shield.

Watch, the jungler, is excellent and ranks among the top in OGN. ParY, the ADC player, has top-notch carry ability and is the core of the team.

In the Spring Regular Season rankings, Najin Sword fell to ninth place by only one point, making them the strongest of the four OGN teams.

Of course, Li Zhixing didn't care.

He doesn't think Kim Hyuk-kyu will lose to PraY.

He didn't think that the rather handsome Watch across from him would be a match for him.

In today's game, my teammates didn't have the same crazy performance as yesterday.

The top and bottom lanes focused on peaceful development, and although the mid lane had some pressure in terms of CS, they were unable to create a solo kill.

But it is precisely at times like these that Li Zhixing can exert his strength.

Two days ago, his teammates got too many kills, which caused Li Zhixing's performance to be consistently poor.

His teammates aren't putting up much of an effort today, so he has to go all out and kill!

Just three minutes into the game, Li Zhixing's Lee Sin successfully ganked the bottom lane and secured the first blood.

At the seven-minute mark, Li Zhixing's thoughts were like a wild horse, and he ambushed the enemy jungler Vi in the jungle.

With first blood and a gear advantage, fighting is easy; the question is how to secure the kill.

Stick to him and throw a few punches first, then land a steady RQ, finish with "Echo Strike," and land a basic attack to easily secure a solo kill!

From then on, the blind man's condition became uncontrollable.

At this moment, the camera cuts to the middle lane.

Lee Sang-hyeok's Orianna also showed his dominance, and after severely damaging the enemy, he used a QR combo to force the enemy Viktor to use Flash.

Mata quickly recorded the Flash in the chat.

"13.30MID"

Li Zhixing certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Two minutes later, the blind man suddenly attacked the middle lane!

Viktor landed his Q skill on a minion, then smoothly hopped on a ward in mid-air, instantly appearing behind Viktor.

"Dragon Tail Swing!"

With a single kick, the blind monk easily sent Viktor into Lee Sang-hyeok's mouth.

The moment that kick was made, the audience erupted in uproar.

In this day and age, even the simplest eye-touching roundhouse kick is a shocking move.

Of course, this wasn't the first time Li Zhixing had used this technique in his tutorial videos.

Therefore, players prefer to call it the Neo kick.

Lee Sang-hyeok didn't even need to use his ultimate. Orianna just used QW to slow down the enemy, and the two chased after her and finished her off.

The saved ultimate skill played a crucial role in the subsequent dragon fight, with QR directly eliminating the enemy's mid, jungle, and support, allowing teammates to easily achieve a three-for-one trade!

With a single exchange of three kills and the addition of a dragon, the economic gap between the two sides quickly widened.

At this point, the game was no longer in suspense.

After gaining the advantage, RISE began a suffocating suppression.

After 25 minutes, Najin Sword surrendered with four votes, ending the match.

The audience was once again in shock.

Even Black Sword, ranked eighth, can't beat RISE?

The sky is falling!

However, Li Zhixing was still not satisfied with this game, and took advantage of the break to conduct a serious review with the team.

There were quite a few problems during this review, but all the team members nodded and accepted Li Zhixing's criticisms, so the effect was immediate.

In the second game, the rhythm immediately changed.

As we learned from the previous game, the Black Sword team focuses on the bottom lane as their absolute core, with their jungler almost always farming down there, and they are very strict in defending the bottom lane.

In this situation, the old "stepping down" formula will not work.

Therefore, Looper's Kennen became more aggressive in the laning phase, increasing the frequency of trades and creating a significant advantage in his lane.

He held his own against top laner Smeb, so he should be able to create an advantage against Black Sword's top laner, who is also a tanky top laner!

Therefore, Li Zhixing's Spider quickly raided the top lane and easily killed Black Sword under the tower.

The camera then cuts to the bottom half of the map, where Kim Hyuk-kyu is also being harassed by the enemy jungler. Fortunately, Lee Ji-hyung had taken precautions for the bottom lane, so they didn't get a chance, only losing a wave of minions.

In one round of back and forth, the gap widened rapidly.

Looper also knows how to win the game. After gaining an advantage, he didn't linger too much in the top lane. Instead, he saved his teleport and teleported to the bottom lane to initiate a four-man gank on the second lane when the bottom lane minions pushed into the tower!

Kennen's tower-diving ability at level 6 is undeniable. With just a little support tanking the tower, Kennen can charge in with his ultimate and wipe out the entire enemy duo in one go!

This is the key to Li Zhixing's plan.

The advantage of the upper half of the bracket is ultimately not as satisfying as that of the lower half.

Since your bottom lane is heavily fortified, I'll first create a TP advantage in the top half of the map, then my top laner will teleport to the bottom lane and use my superior strength to break through your defenses!

Meanwhile, good news came again from the middle lane.

Lee Sang-hyeok has remained silent to this day, but he has accomplished great things.

Syndra, facing the enemy jungler's surprise attack, instead of retreating, advanced, using Flash, EQ to stun the enemy mid laner Orianna, and then unleashed A, R, A combo with perfectly calculated damage, securing the kill!

"RISE Faker has killed Najin Sword SSONG!"

They pushed down the bottom lane tower and broke through, while simultaneously securing a solo kill against two opponents in the mid lane.

So far, the game is over.
