Chapter 335: Defeat Flash Wolves Again, LPL Advances to the Intercontinental Championship Finals!
After WE won the first game of the semi-finals as expected.
The joint coaching team of LPL also hurriedly discussed in the lounge who to send in the second game.
The time left for the LPL people to discuss was not long.
To decide which of the remaining three teams in LPL will play the second game.
The first thing to do is to guess which team the opposing provincial team will send in the second game.
RNG head coach Feng Ge is from Taiwan.
His coaching career also started from the LMS division.
He basically knows the coaching staff of several teams that LMS played this time.
Based on Feng Ge's understanding, he thinks that LMS will most likely send Flash Wolves in the second game.
Because after losing the first game.
The head coaches on the LMS side will definitely not be able to bear losing the second game again.
In that case, they will be behind 0-2 and stand directly on the edge of the cliff.
Therefore, LMS will most likely not consider any Tian Ji horse racing in the second game.
They should directly send their strongest force, Flash Wolves.
We must make up for the BO5 score.
So, let's assume that the provincial team will send Flash Wolves in the second game.
Which team will LPL send to play Flash Wolves in the second game?
Should we continue to play Tian Ji's horse racing.
Send EDG and RNG, whose performance in the current LPL summer season is relatively weak, to take on this game. If they win, they will make a lot of money, and if they lose, they will not lose money?
Or should we send LGD directly to fight Flash Wolves?
Dgc volunteered.
Let's let LGD play the second game!
We will ensure that we can defeat the opponent.
Let's get the match point of BO5 first.
"The boss" Hongmi nodded in agreement.
Then, he reported the team that LPL would play in the second game through the on-site staff.
Soon, there was feedback.
As Feng Ge expected, LMS sent Flash Wolves in the second game.
Knowing this news, Hongmi nodded.
This is a sure thing!
In Hongmi's opinion.
Although Flash Wolves is the strongest team in the LMS region now.
However, among the four teams from the LMS region participating in the Intercontinental Championship this time.
LGD's win rate against Flash Wolves may be higher than against the other three teams.
"Just the top laner of Flash Wolves, facing LGD's Xiao Zhou, can he win one game out of a hundred games!" Hongmi thought.
Not long after, a staff member came to the lounge where the LPL personnel were.
Notify the LPL team that will play the second game to prepare to go on stage for preliminary equipment debugging.
LGD's players and coaches all got up from their chairs and left the lounge.
Forty minutes later.
LGD came back.
This is the semi-final of the Intercontinental Championship between the LPL and LMS regions.
The big score has become 2-0.
LGD steadily defeated Flash Wolves.
In this second game, LGD directly chose the Prince on the first floor.
On the Flash Wolves side, Mimidan was still not convinced and continued to choose the crocodile.
In yesterday's group match, LGD played against Flash Wolves, and Zhou Dian's Prince played against Mimidan's Crocodile in the top lane.
However, there was a change in the top lane in this game.
Zhou Dian directly took out Fiora in the last hand, and moved Prince to the jungle position and let Eimy play.
Then, Zhou Dian's Fiora directly chopped Flash Wolves.
LGD won the second game without any danger.
Score another point for LPL and get the match point.
Zhou Dian ended the short interview between games and returned to the LPL lounge.
Many people took the initiative to greet him.
Zhou Dian responded with a smile.
Then he sat down with his teammates and prepared to watch EDG's game.
At this time, several EDG players had just come on stage.
They were about to start debugging the equipment.
The next BO5 third game.
It was EDG against AHQ, one of the two phantom gods in the LMS region.
In recent years, the LMS region has been ruled by Flash Wolves and AHQ in turn.
It can be seen that the group of people in the LPL lounge are quite relaxed at this moment.
After all, the LPL has already led 2-0.
And EDG and AHQ have also played against each other many times in international competitions.
AHQ rarely beats EDG.
In the third game of the semi-finals, the LMS region has the priority to choose the side.
AHQ chose the blue side.
EDG is on the red side.
In the first round of BP, EDG did not ban Thresh, who was basically banned by the red side.
And AHQ also decisively grabbed Thresh on the first floor.
On the EDG side, Audi on the first floor clicked on Fiora and lit up.
"Wow, what do you mean? Seeing Zhou Shen's Fiora on the upper plate, Audi is itching to use Fiora to start the fight?" PDD joked on the commentary seat.
In the EDG team voice.
"Don't be silly, help me get the jungler first!" said the factory manager.
"You're looking for death by picking Fiora on the first floor? Do you think you're Zhou Shen?"
EDG then picked Gragas on the first floor.
AHQ picked Lee Sin to deal with it.
Second round of BP.
EDG still picked the top laner first and took down Jarvan IV on the fourth floor.
The red team picked Tam on the fifth floor as the counter.
After watching the BP, Zhou Dian felt a little bad.
Put Thresh in and be confident to use Tam to deal with it, there is no problem.
But AHQ picked Thresh first, and you picked Tam on the fifth floor, isn't it a bit of a waste of this counter position!
However, the game on the field has already begun.
Zhou Dian didn't think about these things, and watched the game with everyone in the lounge.
However, no one expected it.
This time, it was an extremely bladder game.
The plot was like a roller coaster, back and forth.
Both sides kept alternating between advantages and disadvantages.
EDG was at a disadvantage in the early stage, but AHQ got sick in the middle stage and was beaten back by EDG.
EDG even got the first dragon in 24 minutes.
Then
EDG took three dragons in a row.
But EDG didn't manage to push down the opponent's base.
EDG became more and more chaotic as the game went on.
The overall lineup had higher damage than the opponent, and they also took two ancient dragons, but they couldn't win the team battle.
The dragon was killed five times by both sides in this game, and it was also tortured.
In this game, AHQ was very daring to fight when they were at a disadvantage, and they always took the initiative to attack EDG.
Later in the game, AHQ's jungler Lee Sin even used the Central Asian Hourglass to start a team fight, after all, the CD of the resurrection armor was too long.
With Ximen Ye's Rock Bird, a precise ultimate separated Tam who had no flash.
After Tam was killed, EDG was beaten 0 for 4.
Throughout the game, EDG's high ground had never been broken.
And they were pushed down by AHQ in one wave.
After a 64-minute fierce battle.
The ten players on the field were also tired and leaned back on the chair.
3 big dragons, 2 ancient dragons, and they lost the game.
Zhou Dian could already imagine that EDG would be criticized a lot on the Internet.
If it happened to him, he would certainly not be afraid of being criticized.
I just don't know if others can stand it.
When several EDG players returned to the lounge, they all went straight to the bathroom.
This kind of game that lasted more than an hour was really a test of the bladder.
At this time, on the stage, LMS host Xiao Xiong was interviewing AHQ's ADC Xiao An.
In this game, Xiao An's Xia had a record of 13-1-11, with an output of nearly 80,000.
It also allowed everyone to see the potential of Xia, a new shooter hero.
After all, this hero is not afraid of being attacked first due to the existence of the ultimate move.
Of course, there is another point, that is, Thresh, the support.
In this intercontinental competition, Thresh has maintained a 100% winning rate so far.
Although in the third game of this semi-final.
EDG lost to AHQ.
But the LPL region still leads the LMS region with a big score of 2 to 1.
The members of the joint coaching team on the LPL side are not too worried.
When LGD beat Flash Wolves.
The balance of victory in the semi-finals has already tilted to LPL.
Because the fourth game will be RNG vs. M17 team.
M17 team is only the fourth in this year's LMS Spring Split.
The gap in strength between them and RNG is still not small.
Especially when Uzi has returned.
Then, the fourth game began.
Everyone in the LPL lounge also watched the game with a relaxed attitude.
In this game, the LPL region has the priority to choose the side.
RNG chose the blue side.
M17 landed on the red side.
In the first round of BP, M17 on the red side did not ban Thresh, just like EDG in the previous game.
"Not banning Thresh again? In the last game, EDG chose to use Tam to counter. I wonder what support M17 will choose to deal with this game?" Remember the commentator said.
And RNG was not polite to you, and directly grabbed Thresh on the first floor.
Later, M17 chose Titan support to counter Thresh.
It is worth mentioning that.
M17's top laner, in the counter position on the fifth floor, chose to use Fiora to fight Letme's Prince.
Fiora is indeed counter Prince.
But the stage of this game does not belong to Fiora.
M17's jungler Spider chose to start in the upper half and quickly ganked the bottom lane.
As a result, Letme's Prince TPed to the bottom lane at level 2, and together with Lee Sin, they launched a counter-encirclement.
M17's Spider died, and the head and the red buff on his body were taken by Lee Sin, and he exploded directly.
In the LPL lounge, seeing Prince TP down at level 2, 957 turned his head and said to Zhou Dian:
"Letme is too hard, TPing down at level 2, how can he play in this line?"
"It's a personal choice, it's hard to say," Zhou Dian replied.
"Anyway, if you were this Fiora, Prince would not be able to play this game if he went to support like this." 957 said.
As he said that, 957 chuckled, probably remembering the miserable situation of Mimi Egg Crocodile in the last game.
Back to the game.
Mala Xiangguo's Lee Sin became the protagonist of this game.
Crazy gank, ganking three lanes.
Especially Fiora, who was caught a bit miserably.
After more than ten minutes of game time.
M17 was already at a disadvantage across the board and could not play.
In less than 28 minutes, RNG pushed down M17's base and won the fourth game of the semi-finals.
Thresh still maintained a 100% win rate in this intercontinental competition.
Mala Xiangguo's Lee Sin had a record of 4-1-12 in this game.
The participation rate is as high as a terrifying %VP.
The LPL region also defeated the LMS region with a score of 3 to 1 and advanced to the finals.
The finals will start at 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the next day.
The opponent in the finals is the LCK region.
With RNG defeating M17, the semi-finals ended.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
The support Xiao Ming was interviewed after the game on the RNG side.
The others went back to the lounge first, and then everyone went back to the hotel together.
As soon as Letme walked into the lounge, he walked straight to Zhou Dian.
"Wow, Zhou Shen, you are right!" Letme's expression was a little excited.
Winning the game, or directly winning the BO5 victory.
Letme was naturally very happy.
"Yan Junze, what did he say to you?" 957 next to him was a little curious.
"Because I heard that the top laner of the opposite M17 is a guy who is good at playing Fiora!"
After a pause, Letme continued: "So, before I went on stage, I asked Zhou Shen, if the opponent chooses Fiora, how can I deal with it better?"
"How to deal with it?"
Letme had a smiling expression without saying anything, which made 957 a little speechless.
"Okay, okay, I didn't say anything." Zhou Dian said quickly.
"Just let Letme stay calm and wait for the jungler, the opponent's Fiora will give herself away."
957 next to him frowned when he heard this.
"Ah! That's it?"
