Chapter 149: Decisive Battle! 3-star Ambition!
Chapter 149: The Final Battle! Samsung's Ambition! (First update, please subscribe)
No one expected that the final would be so intense and go straight to the deciding game!
Sima Laozei really burned himself out in the fourth game and helped LPL snatch back the most crucial point.
Otherwise, we would have been defeated 3 to 1 by the LCK region.
Sitting in the commentary booth, Wawa Miller was waiting for the team rosters of both sides for the fifth inning.
There should be no suspense on the lpl side, GT, which is in the best condition, will play the fifth game, but there should be some explanation on the lck side.
SKT's recent form isn't very good, so maybe they won't be allowed to play in the deciding game.
So the two of them started a new round of analysis.
It wasn't until I received the notice that I felt cheered up.
Wawa said loudly: "In the fifth game of the Intercontinental Championship, GT will play against SSG! LCK didn't use SKT, but let Samsung, who has been in good form recently, to be the last one!"
Miller was also very cautious at this time: "Samsung is also a very famous team. We also watched the Intercontinental Championship. The strength they showed is indeed terrifying. GT still needs to be careful and be vigilant."
But because we are the GT team, everyone is more relaxed.
I'm not as nervous as I was just now.
At this time, the barrage in the live broadcast room was also scrolling wildly.
Accompanied by the battle song of the decisive battle, the effect was maximized, and everyone looked at the big screen excitedly.
"Okay, blue side GT, red side SSG!"
"Shall we ban the Corki first? And then directly ban the Grasshopper?" Li Jiongjun asked.
"You don't have to move the airplane. In fact, Crown's skill in fighting the airplane is average, so you can target him with the Grasshopper." Li Yi still felt that the Grasshopper was a more annoying hero. He was not easy to kill because of his passive skill. His ability to clear lanes with the help of worms was very strong after he made enough equipment. His ultimate had powerful control, so he would definitely trade one for one in a team fight.
Besides, this is Crown's championship hero, so it's okay to give him some respect.
"Okay, then ban the grasshopper, and the rest will target the jungler."
"There's nothing wrong with me."
Brother Crown sat in his seat, he was a little excited and a little nervous.
Let Samsung play in the crucial game. If they win, they will be the main contributors to LCK, which will definitely attract a large number of fans.
Moreover, Sease had beaten up his little fanboy LAN before. As a mid-lane idol, he must help the little fan to get back at him!
The most important thing is that his style is different from Faker's. He likes to face offensive mid laners like Sease, who can make his opponent's fists feel like hitting cotton.
So they are the ones who can truly restrain the GT team.
This is also the reason why I sat in the battle seat in the fifth game.
Brother Crown took a deep breath, picked up the water cup next to him and took a big gulp, feeling that he was in full swing.
“Minhao, I didn’t expect that they also studied you.” Sect Leader An was a little surprised. After all, their Samsung was only the third seed. Did they make so many plans for imaginary enemies?
Edgar patted An on the shoulder and said, "The other team was able to become the champion of the Mid-Season Invitational. In addition to their exaggerated tactical reserves, they must have done a lot of research. It's normal to have a limited hero pool. Everyone just needs to relax and play the next game in a normal state. Minhao, don't put so much pressure on yourself. We still have a great chance."
"Get rid of Kalista first. It will be very troublesome for the opponent to get Kalista."
"Ok!"
The red team bans Kalista. Even though the recovery effect of the Censer has been cut, the damage bonus has been increased, which is equivalent to reducing the tolerance and increasing the status, so it still has a high priority.
It can be seen that Riot has not yet made up its mind to abandon the Censer.
I just want to increase the priority of the bottom lane.
Isn't the LPL region the place that produces the most ADs?
It just so happens that this year's global finals is held in China.
GT banned Sejuani as his second hero.
Samsung banned Rambo.
This is also very normal. The purpose is to make Chidi feel more comfortable when fighting in a team. Rambo's ultimate skill still limits the output of AD in team battles.
There's nothing you can do about it, this is the way their system works.
Crown is a more functional mid laner, so if he wants to make up for the damage, he can only use a core AD.
It just so happens that the hero Rambo is in GimGoon’s hero pool, and Samsung still doesn’t want Ruler to be restricted.
GT then banned Jinx, leaving no room for Ruler to perform.
Samsung banned the excavator in the third move.
"That's no problem, but if we do that, there will be a lot of heroes released. First, Syndra, and then the Xayah and Rakan combination... Does Samsung want to use Syndra to replace the bottom lane combination?" Miller asked with a frown.
"It's possible, but it depends on what GT chooses, whether to use Syndra or Xayah and Rakan... But Xayah and Rakan seem a bit too abnormal, so they probably won't use them, right?"
"Sure enough, GT still took Luo."
"Sindra and Xayah are also three stars. I feel that this pair of Cs is quite strong. It is obviously designed in the bp. Now that Excavator is gone, it seems like we are at a disadvantage." Shenchao next to him had not spoken before, but now he couldn't help himself.
"Samsung's coach has always been Edgar, the previous champion coach, so Samsung has always done well in terms of BP."
"Look at what GT picked in the last two moves. Ashe? Locked! Is there any way to beat Ashe against Xayah?"
"Xayah still needs a hard support. If she is paired with a soft support, she will most likely not be able to beat the combination of Ashe and Rakan. Rakan's initiative is a bit too strong, and coupled with Ashe's ability to stick to people, Xayah may not be able to make a good transition in the early stages."
"Then this bottom lane combination is still worth talking about..." "It's a pity that there is no Galio. If there is Galio, it will be very cool with Luo's entry."
"When playing against Syndra, let's see what Show God will use. He is the best player and the one who understands Syndra the most. The hero he chooses should be the one that targets Syndra the most, right?"
"But I didn't expect Samsung to play Syndra. Showgod is most famous for Syndra..."
In fact, the barrage in the lpl live broadcast room has been refreshing madly showing off the ball.
I feel that this game is already very stable. If you dare to use Syndra in the mid lane, you will definitely be broken through.
"Oh, GT still didn't choose to go to the middle lane. They still chose to pick up the Prince first. They can play in the jungle or in the top lane. It's a swing."
Samsung locked down Janna in the third hand, giving Xayah absolute protection, but the laning match was still a bit difficult.
If Xayah and Janna make a mistake in positioning, they will be hit by their skills.
Of course, this hero choice is made for the sake of the upcoming team battle.
Xayah's mechanism is more suitable for hard support. She can only take the initiative to attack without Rakan, Minotaur and Titan.
But this version is half lost without the censer.
That’s why many inappropriate auxiliary combinations have emerged.
However, once the hero Xia gains an advantage, coupled with her ultimate's self-protection ability, it is still easy for her to snowball, and she is considered one of the top C positions.
The second round of bp is relatively simple.
Samsung directly removed Zed and Fizz.
These two heroes are what Syndra is most afraid of, and there have been people who have emerged in the arena to counter Syndra.
Moreover, Li Yi had been selected in previous competitions, so removing him would be the safest option in this situation.
GT then counterattacked against cuvee in the top lane. Although this guy seemed to be a scumbag, he could also pull out some inexplicable heroes if he was forced into a corner.
So just ban Gnar and Kennen directly, and try to give the top laner no room to perform.
However, Samsung did not intend to put the burden on cuvee.
The main thing is to evaluate the level of the top laners of both sides. If they get beaten, wouldn’t that be a side effect?
In this situation, he still helped the top laner to get the big worm. He can carry and fight but is not very flexible. However, he does not need to be too flexible, leaving a counter position for the jungler.
Master An has a relatively high status in the team. Let’s see what he can use to set the pace.
If the opponent is playing as a jungler, you can consider attacking a little bit. If it is someone else, then think about playing as a jungler.
But with Janna around, the overall tone won't change much, and it will still focus on defense. Heroes like Wei and Nightmare won't be brought out, mainly because they don't match at all.
GT had obviously thought of the last two heroes long ago, and locked in Shen and Twisted Fate almost at the same time!
"Jason! Twisted Fate! This is a bit like Fiora and Twisted Fate's double-lane single-lane system. The difference is that Jason's ultimate is very targeted. It can directly lock Xayah in a team fight. Then Jarvan will follow up with his ultimate. Twisted Fate can fly in and pose a great threat to Xayah. One Janna may not be able to protect her." Shenchao analyzed very seriously.
"But whether or not the effect can be achieved still depends on the players' laning phase. I don't know what you think about Card facing Syndra, but I don't think he has any advantage," Miller said.
"But I think it's fair to say that this is the card that showed off the God of Show. He has played many exaggerated performances with Card, and he knows the hero Syndra very well. He must have his own ideas when picking Card, mainly because their system is very strong in the mid-term." Shen Chao didn't refute Miller's words after hearing what he said, but just expressed his own opinion. "He didn't use this card for the laning, but for the solo lane of Shen."
"It would be a blessing if the top laner had a mid laner like this."
Douyu Live Room.
Lu Benwei shouted, "Who is Shen Chao trying to trick? I will definitely pay him a visit when he gets back."
"Playing Pubg? It's too early. Let's wait until after the Intercontinental Championship. Then I'll get 30 kills every time and show you the strength of the retired god of war."
Even so, it is not hard to see that he is very envious of Shen Chao. Recently, the official large-scale competitions have all invited Shen Chao to be the guest commentator. It’s not too early for them...
It’s because Shen Chao is very careful with his words, or it should be said that there are no swear words in his vocabulary.
Thinking back to the year when I was teammates with Shen Chao, they were all criticizing him, but Shen Chao's words were not muted. We could only give him a thumbs up, and he deserved to keep his job!
With the large number of followers on the commentary, Shenchao’s popularity is also quite high now, even though his ranking does not have much of a show effect.
Samsung obviously didn't expect GT to choose Twisted Fate to fight Syndra, and with Shen on the top lane, counter-attack is also very important.
After much thought, it is indeed the Lee Sin who is more suitable, and he also has some initiative in the jungle when facing the Prince.
So Samsung’s fifth pick directly locked in Lee Sin.
They are going to adopt a turtle system and will never initiate a team fight. If GT rushes in, they will be blown up!
He is invincible in counterattack, and the combination of Lee Sin and Syndra has explosive rhythm in the mid-term.
It would be best if you can roll to an advantage, but it's no problem if you don't have an advantage. When you reach level 6, you can use two ultimate skills and you will definitely be able to deal with the hero Card.
It's not a complete turtle either, it has some initiative.
In this way, the lineups of both sides are determined.
GT on the blue side: top lane Shen, jungle Jarvan IV, mid lane Twisted Fate, bottom lane duo Ashe and Rakan.
Red side SSG: top lane Cho'Z, jungle Lee Sin, mid lane Syndra, bottom lane duo Xayah and Janna.
The coaches of both teams came to the center of the stage and shook hands. The intercontinental competition that determines the victory or defeat of the two divisions has entered the final countdown stage!
