Vanguard destroys the second tower and pushes the high ground, invades the jungle to compress the development space, Twisted Fate uses his ultimate to catch lone carries, and uses a numbers advantage to forcefully crush and push forward.
With the perfect performance of the fast-flow system.
2 is better than 1
In 26 minutes, TES won the game again, taking the match point!
The Battle for Supremacy: Chapter 75: Fame and fortune are always the best sources of motivation for people.
"Wuhu, brothers, one more round to go before we finish!"
"Coach, do you have any other systems you can come up with to try and just completely overwhelm the opponent?"
"You'll have to ask A-Ban for that. It feels like he came up with about 80% of the weird tricks in the team."
"Damn, stop with the baseless criticism, I was just making a suggestion."
The current TES is just like Manchester United in football. Although they are not the strongest, they always choose the playstyle that gets the most comments, especially Maguire, who can almost be described as head-on against Ronaldo, foot-on against Pogba, one-on-one against Luke Shaw, and reporting Matic, making him a true king of antics.
Looking at the chattering group of teammates in the break room, White Crescent scratched his head helplessly.
You could call it a routine, but there's definitely a bit of it.
But if you actually bring it up, even the players themselves can't accept it.
In the players' own perception, unless it is a weak team playing against a strong team, using routines will not completely convince the opponent. Using one or two routines is one thing, but how can you convince the crowd if you use routines all the time?
In this fourth game, I reckon everyone will bring out their signature lineups and have a direct competition.
Speaking of MSI, this is the fourth time since 18 that LCK has failed to win the MSI. RNG in S8, G2 in S9, MSC in S10, and TES (formerly RNG World Championship) this year. This tournament, which is the most prestigious besides the World Championship, has never been won by any LCK team.
It must be mentioned that this is clearly unacceptable to LCK viewers.
Of course, it's a different story for the players.
The current LCK players are actually a group of players who haven't been driven to the brink of despair. If South Korea were to propose that winning the championship would exempt them from military service, I have reason to believe that the strength of LCK players would increase dramatically. Unfortunately, all of this possibility has been ruined by other match-fixing players in their own country. The idea of exemption from military service is now out of the question.
"Do you think the opposing team will try something unconventional in the fourth game?" After thinking for a while, Ah Le raised this question.
"That's not true. Even if you pull off some stunts, it depends on the team's overall synergy. The enemy top laner looks completely out of place with the other four, but unlike us, they can't just ignore you."
"Wait... so I've become a sacrifice?"
"Ah Le, as the saying goes, if you don't go to hell, who will? Think about it carefully. You're an unknown rookie top laner, while the other side is a renowned veteran. Right now, we've all tacitly refrained from interfering with your laning phase. If you just play a little better and dominate the lane, the attention and traffic will come in like crazy."
"Hmm~ What you said makes a lot of sense."
While Ale was deep in thought, Roland and White Crescent exchanged knowing smiles, as if their scheme had succeeded. No wonder newcomers are so easy to fool; they can be easily fooled with just a few words.
This is the same as recruiting workers in the market.
You can't hire a worker for 3000 yuan, but you can hire a designer for 3000 yuan and have him help carry bricks.
Keep the amount the same, just change the topic, and the person will definitely come.
Of course, at its core, it all comes down to honor.
League of Legends has been around for over 10 years. Since the start of the World Championship in Season 3, there have only been one World Championship and one MSK tournaments that have been shown to gamers worldwide. As for the regional champions and runners-up, they are nothing compared to the world-class events.
Fame and fortune are always the best sources of motivation for people.
If you don't believe me, try it with your roommate.
If you invite him out to the cafeteria for a meal, he won't pay any attention to you for ages.
But if you tell him it's your treat, and he can choose any meal or bathhouse you like, he'll be all ready in less than ten minutes and urge you to leave.
This is the difference.
"Alright, having come this far, I believe you're all well-prepared. In this team, some have never faced a world-class champion, some are just one or two Grand Slams away, some yearn for revenge and fame, some want to prove themselves worthy of their reputation, and some have persisted until now with some inexplicable motivation. But... whatever the reason, you're all just one match away from the championship." Looking at the group of players in the rest room, White Crescent felt a mix of emotions.
It's one thing to be a mid-to-lower-tier support.
Ueno's moves were something even he himself couldn't quite understand back then, but these two cheap players have somehow carried the team all the way to MSI. This isn't just about getting your money's worth; it's about making an insane profit!
"I believe in the efforts you've made over the past six months. Give it your all in the final game. Since the beginning of last year, TES has never played the fifth game in a best-of-five series. Although I don't think playing the fifth game is a big deal, but... who wants to work overtime for no reason?"
In any case, the game has already come this far.
Given the distance to Iceland and the duration of the tournament, regardless of whether they win the championship or not, they will face the LPL Summer Split directly upon returning. In that case, why not simply win the championship before leaving?
When we're traveling, it's not unreasonable to bring back a championship as a souvenir, right?
"Get ready, guys, the final battle is about to begin!"
-------------------------------------
Meanwhile, in DK's rest room, Koma was also giving his teammates a pre-match pep talk.
In reality, Kouma was quite helpless.
During his early years with SKT, he had Faker, who could both attack and defend, and Bang, who provided a stable foundation. Either of them gave him a great sense of security and psychological satisfaction.
But now...
Putting aside the fact that Khan couldn't dominate his lane even against a rookie, the performance of Genshin Impact in the bot lane was so bad it looked like he was throwing the game. (You can refer to his MSI videos for more details; saying he was throwing is giving him too much credit.)
Really.
If this guy weren't such a top-notch commander, a natural talent, and currently without a substitute, Kkoma would have benched him long ago. And it's not just the support, the AD carry is the same. Kkoma has been coaching teams for many years, and even at VG, the worst AD carry he coached was iBoy, who was at least one of the top three new-generation AD carries from EDG. And now... Ghost Emperor.
You don't even know how to evaluate this person.
You might say he's bad, but he has great chemistry with DK, and even became a champion AD carry.
You might say he's strong, but he doesn't really have any special skills in the game; his performance is just average. The only interesting thing about him is Jhin.
Although the final match has not yet started.
But... Koma felt he could already vaguely see a sign of failure.
The Battle for Supremacy: Chapter 76: The Alliance's Three Unfilial Acts
Fifteen minutes later.
When the players from both sides stood on the stage again, TES's standard "must-win" mentality for the fourth game once again appeared before the LPL audience. It's hard to understand why a team's mental state can give people such a feeling. They were just chatting and laughing normally, but you could feel their high fighting spirit and determination from their leisurely demeanor.
Here it comes, the fourth game of the classic best-of-five series.
[Fun fact: Teams that let TES take the first two games before the fourth game all lost.]
[Niu Guli: See? I was the carry for DK.]
To be honest, before every major tournament, my biggest worry is the mid-lane Earthbound Spirit. Turns out, this Earthbound Spirit's passive perfectly blocked the enemy Xu Xiu. It was absolutely brilliant.
Knight played a crucial role in defeating DK, remaining silent throughout.
Those who are stronger in lane than him can't roam as well as he can, those who can roam better than him don't have his keen sense of team fights, and those who have a keen sense of team fights are not as strong in lane as he is. After this cycle, he is directly invincible, which is ridiculous.
"How about we give the other side a good opportunity?" As soon as Roland sat down in the player's seat, another crazy idea popped into his head.
"For example?"
"There are three unfilial sons in the League: top laner Vayne, jungler Teemo, and support Malphite. What do you think?"
"I think the coach will carry you off the chair right there..."
That's ridiculous! If any one of these three is chosen, it's a pipe dream if they can even return to the LPL alive.
Oh no, perhaps a stone man could.
But for the support role, isn't this ridiculous?
Fortunately, everyone knew that this guy was just trying to lighten the mood and cheer them up, and they quickly recovered.
First round of bans:
DK: Thresh, Varus, Draven
TES: Zoe, Senna, Renekton
Despite only a slight warning, from the moment DK chose to ban Thresh and Draven, White Crescent and Roland already had a sense of unease: they were going to let the jungle carry carry pass through.
The DK team.
Beryl is the brain, Showmaker is the pivot, Khan is a dispensable component, Ghsot is just there to fill a spot, but Canyon's jungle carry is their team's true weapon.
“I feel like everything has come back.”
"What do you mean, 'feel'? Get lost!"
If banning Thresh initially didn't seem like a big deal, then banning Draven as the third ban practically revealed that the opponent was going to pick a jungle carry, because the biggest fear for jungle carries is having their side lanes collapse, leaving them torn between farming themselves and helping their teammates.
One round of PICK:
DK: Cannon (first-round pick), Nidalee (Rayle)
TES: Kai'Sa and Lee Sin (first and second picks), Gragas
We don't know what the other side is thinking, but as long as you dare to let him play Gragas, TES will definitely dare to pick him. As one of the few mage supports that can appear in official matches, Roland has put a lot of effort into him. The main problem is that the designers are constantly messing with Roland's head, and they've also targeted his mage supports. With various patches, the current mage supports don't have a high margin for error.
Second round of bans: Titan, Orianna, Gnar, and Lucian were all banned.
For their fourth pick, TES chose Syndra, a mid-laner who synergizes well with Lee Sin.
DK added Aatrox and Akali.
This is the end.
DK's lineup is: Top - Aatrox, Jungle - Nidalee, Mid - Akali, Bot - Tristana + Ryze
A fully offensive combination.
Seeing this, TES immediately added initiation and AOE in their last pick, giving Ale the Monkey King.
TES: Top lane Wukong, Jungle Lee Sin, Mid lane Syndra, Bot lane Kai'Sa + Gragas
A well-balanced lineup in all respects.
Game start.
In this game, both sides chose to farm from top to bottom. What was unusual was Nidalee's farming method. Given DK's top-mid-jungle composition, it would have been much better for him to farm from bottom to top, but... as I said before, there's a reason why jungle carries have been nerfed.
If it's the Nidalee from the S10 World Championship, then there shouldn't be any problem with the start of the game on either side.
