Chapter 449 Looking Forward to the Final Civil War!
Hex flashed to the dragon pit, and used WQ to knock Sima Laozei and Hai Chengmin away before they could react.
Hylissang's operation was very cool.
However, the other members of FNC were all pressed into the river behind the blue buff camp, and in the upper half of the lower river from the middle lane to the lower river.
No one could keep up with the output.
Zhao Xin's spear kept poking at the Tauren, and Ekko easily used QEA and basic attack to hit three rings.
The moment Lissandra escaped from the knock-up, WQE was launched at the same time!
The Tauren was killed instantly.
"Hylissang didn't use the ultimate skill!" The sharp-eyed Rita discovered Hylissang's fatal mistake.
If the Tauren used the ultimate skill and held on for a few more seconds, his teammates would definitely be able to keep up with the output.
Although, the result of the team battle did not necessarily mean that FNC would win.
But at least it won't be like now, where the decline is hard to hide
"Ekko flashes and E, entering the time field, the digger in the ground didn't react and was stunned on the spot."
"Titan took the hook!"
"Xin Zhao easily punished the little dragon and followed up with the output."
"The digger was killed by EDG's hard damage, and Tristana's second stage W jumped into the face of Leblanc!"
"Sima Laozei played fiercely, fortunately FNC didn't have much fighting spirit this time, otherwise they might have given up."
The little dragon team battle ended after Sima Laozei jumped into the face of Leblanc with W, and Leblanc was scared and gave up flash.
EDG exchanged 0 for 2, got the second little dragon, and won a big victory!
[Hylissang, after you are high, you will be our good brother in LPL]
[It's already 1:0]
[Brother Jun's hidden W is so cool, although he only killed one digger]
[I can only say, it's a huge profit! Ekko has a killing book, as long as he can get a kill, he wins! 】
【Hylissang will never disappoint you】
【Damn, I thought Minotaur was going to do something big, but he ended up doing something big】
【……】
“Speed up!” Seeing that his Book of Death had increased by another 4 levels, Jiang Zhun couldn’t help but say with joy: “Give FNC a little speed shock.”
“What’s the point of choosing Viktor? He didn’t even use his ultimate in a teamfight!”
“Hahaha, with Viktor’s current stats, it’s too hard to deal damage in a teamfight without a tank suit.” Hai Chengmin said: “This version is not suitable for a mage who wants to develop!”
Collision!
It is the theme of the S8 World Championship version.
Whether it is online, the rhythm of teamfights, or the heroes that can be selected, they are all moving closer to Rank matches.
It is precisely because of this that the global viewing time of this year’s World Championship has exceeded that of last year before the semifinals!
It has set a new record.
You should know that the average game time of the current version is eight minutes shorter than that of S7.
But even so, the duration can exceed last year, which is enough to show how exciting the competition is!
At least, in the BO5 game, the audience will not do other things after watching a game, and wait for more than half an hour to come back to watch the game.
After all, in S7, the winner and loser of the game were basically decided after 20 minutes of game time.
"EDG's BP broke the game."
"FNC chose Viktor first, and did not use this hero as a counter position, which was really a bit too rough."
IG team's BP coach Jinzhu looked at FNC's overall disadvantage and analyzed the game from the lineup end.
"After Viktor upgrades the Hex Core, he needs to add at least one Lich Bane or Ice Staff to deal damage."
"Excavator, you need to at least stack up the Warrior Jungle Knife and the Small Piercing Armor, so that the opponent will suffer a set of damage."
"As for the hero Sivir, it goes without saying."
"The players are obviously not as good as EDG in terms of real strength. Why does FNC dare to choose this lineup?"
Coach Jinzhu said disdainfully: "If I were to go up to BP, FNC and EDG would be at least 50-50."
Jinzhu doesn't know Chinese, so only Jiang Chenglu Rouji and Coach Mafa can understand him.
This guy is always proud.
Therefore, the three of them were not surprised, but began to respond and said: "That's right, if FNC can't change its thinking on hero selection, it's afraid that it will be 3-0 again!"
"Even if they come to the blue side in the next game and can have a slight advantage in BP, it will definitely not change the fate of failure."
...
EDG's attack was aggressive, and the five FNC players were basically sweating profusely. Caps's Leblanc was so busy that he had to use his W skill within 5 seconds after the cooldown was completed.
Sometimes it was to quickly clear the line of soldiers, but more often it was just to support teammates.
When Leblanc's W skill was frequently on cooldown, it meant that this game was either a big advantage or hopeless.
Obviously, FNC was the latter.
Under EDG's frequent offensive, FNC soon couldn't resist and fell.
In just 22 minutes, two high grounds were lost.
"Why do I feel that even if EDG doesn't attack the Baron in this round, they can still easily end the game?"
On the LPL commentary booth, the three commentators chatted and laughed.
The overall situation has been determined!
They can even bet their careers and shout, "There is absolutely no possibility of FNC coming back in this game!"
"If, I mean if!" Wang Duoduo said emphatically: "If there are no major surprises in the next games, then EDG and IG will most likely meet in the finals this year."
"This is the first time for LPL!"
"I feel a little too excited when I think about two teams from the LPL competing in a civil war in the World Championship finals."
"hey-hey!"
"Does this even matter?" Guan Zeyuan clapped his hands and started shouting loudly: "EDG will definitely be able to defeat FNCZ easily, and then compete with IG in the finals. Uh-huh. Uh-huh."
Immersed in the official live broadcast room, the audience watching the game suddenly heard some strange sounds.
Many people were stunned for a while and then reacted.
"Holy shit! Are Wang Duoduo and Rita doing a mixed-gender home run to prevent Guan Zeyuan from opening his mouth?"
"This year's World Championship is really good to watch. Not only is RNG working hard, but the commentators are not as restrained as before when commentating on the game."
"RNG is really great! In order for EDG to win the championship, they deliberately lost the game in the knockout round. EDG can take this championship, but the championship trophy must be given to Uzi!"
"There is no need to hack Uzi anymore. He is no longer one of the players with the largest traffic in League of Legends. Please come and hack Brother Zhun!"
…
"Caps, before the base explodes, flashes W then R then draws a 7!"
"Celebrating EDG's first victory in the semifinals."
Semifinals!
EDG just wants to get off work early and win the game quickly, so they are very humane and do not engage in abusive behavior.
Of course, there is also the reason why Jiang Zhun thought his 25th floor murder book was accidentally dropped near the end of the game.
After all, the damage of the spring water reaches 1000 every 0.5 seconds. If the opponent controls the release properly, it will be difficult for Ike to use time and space to escape.
"Caps is really a comedian."
"I just thought he wanted to rush over and fuck me. His fingers were already on the D key."
Tian Tian said with a smile on his face: "I didn't expect that he was paying tribute to the factory director."
“Is the meme 7 also popular in Europe?”
"I don't know, but they must have heard of it." Jiang Zhun said, "Oh, it's a pity that I can't see the expression of the factory director in the background."
While speaking, amidst the noisy audience, Jiang Zhun took off his headphones and looked at the FNC player seats with slightly squinted eyes.
Top laner Bibabu has thicker hair and his personality is considered dull, so Tang Jun couldn't tell his mood at the moment.
But the other four players of the FNC team did not show much disappointment.
They walked backstage talking and laughing.
"Oh!"
Jiang Zhun suddenly noticed that Caps gave him a thumbs up.
Very surprised, Jiang Zhun didn't know how to respond, and also gave the other party a thumbs up.
"Hey, Ike is really good at playing this game." Mala Xiang Guo patted Jiang Zhun on the back, "Caps should be praising you."
"I can probably guess it."
"Ike is so good at cashing in on Victor."
Jiang Zhun shook his head helplessly and said: "In the group stage, I just saw that some of their teams also like to play big heroes like Ornn and Sion, so I thought of using Victor to disgust them."
"I didn't expect that FNC would steal Victor and defeat C9 three to one, and then they would still use this lineup in the semifinals."
Jiang Zhun had actually foreseen this.
The overall strength of the European and American divisions is definitely not as good as the LPL division and LCK.
And due to the format of their leagues and the players' attitudes towards the game, even though Riot is very determined to allow these two regions to win the championship trophy this season, the final result is still a bit unsatisfactory.
However, in the World Championship, one or two European and American teams (basically not the No. 1 seed) tend to perform very well.
This is because, compared to the LPL and LCK regions, teams and players from the European and American regions are better at learning.
That's right!
In the World Championship, if you find good routines, players and teams in the European and American divisions will use them without hesitation.
This is also the reason why in the group stage, teams like C9 and FNC can often complete great comebacks in the second round despite being at a disadvantage in the first round.
In comparison, the LPL group matches always perform well in the first round, but begin to show weakness in the second round.
This is entirely because the LPL division will not practice innovative ideas in BO1 games due to its inherent play style and system.
What's more, in a BO5 game, unless you are in a desperate situation, you will rarely come up with something new in the first one or two games!
You’ve practiced, no need!
This is the LPL division.
Of course, compared to previous years, the LPL division has changed a lot this year.
Because the version is more in line with the LPL style of small team battles, this year's various routines are basically imitated by other competition regions and learned from the LPL.
For example, the style of playing double goddess Ezreal on MSI was first invented by the A monster and used in ranked.
When it comes to the selection of players in the world game, several European and American teams basically imitated the selection of EDG and IG, the two teams that advanced to the top four in the LPL region.
When Li Kui meets Li Gui, it will naturally be exposed!
Bwipo's Viktor has no problem playing against C9 team's salary, but if they want to use Viktor to take advantage against EDG, they are definitely making a wrong calculation!
…
After a short break, the second game between EDG and FNC team started.
With the lessons learned from the first game, FNC made changes in the selection of players in the second game:
[Top lane Nasus, jungle Lee Sin, mid lane Akali, bottom lane Juggernaut + Rakan]
Overall, except that Nasus was a little criticized at one point, there was no big problem.
The commentators also guessed the reason for this selection very quickly.
"The rune for Nasus should be Aery."
"Pick up Manaflow Band and Scorch."
"In the early game, go out with Doran's Ring or Corruption Potion, then click on level 2 E. It's very fast to reduce health or clear the minion line, and it doesn't require operation."
"FNC let Bwipo choose this hero, most likely to let him sneak into the line, and then use W to attack the key position in teamfights, and act as a tank front row?"
Jiang Zhun has used Nasus in LPL games, and LPL commentators are not unfamiliar with it.
"Nosus is actually a mid-term hero."
"At the node of 20 minutes, the damage is exaggerated."
"There's nothing wrong with choosing it to resist pressure!"
Guan Zeyuan also praised it.
In response to FNC's selection, EDG made the following picks:
[Top lane Jayce, jungle Xin Zhao, mid lane Crow, bottom lane Kai'Sa + Thresh]
Jiang Zhun's Jayce and Meiko's Thresh are the highlights of the selection.
But after entering the game, something more surprising happened.
Crow was switched to the top lane, while Jayce went to the middle lane.
This made Caps, who was delighted after the selection, dumbfounded instantly.
At level 1, Akali was suppressed by Jiang Zhun, and only 1 hit was done by 6 minions, and her own quality was only 1/3.
Caps took drugs fiercely.
Unexpectedly, Spicy Hotpot's Zhao Xin appeared in the middle lane at level 2 for no reason.
Two people crossed the tower!
Caps died miserably!
Jiang Zhun got the first blood, and the situation in the middle lane was basically established.
The top laner went out with Doran's Ring and Nasus, which might have a good effect against other top lane heroes, but Crow had no way to deal with it.
As the game time continued to go on.
Crow's role in the game began to be greater than Nasus.
In Game 2, due to the lineup, the total number of kills was much less than that in the first game.
But the time when the game ended was almost the same.
EDG easily got the match point.
"Let's congratulate EDG for getting the match point in 1 hour and 5 minutes!"
There was almost no ups and downs in the game.
EDG completely crushed FNC!
Winning was natural.
Winning was casual.
Even in the minds of many viewers, they think that EDG should play FNC in this way.
"It's impossible to be like RNG, who was defeated 2-0 and 3-0, right?"
"If that's the case, even if IG can win the championship this year, I will quit!"
The audience holding the flag of the State Power team said to the people around them with a full face of enjoyment: "This year's finals are worth watching!"
"IG ate a small point of EDG in the spring game."
"The kind of slaughter."
"A Shui's Draven!"
"Look forward to it."
