Chapter 382 S8 Summer Finals! The Battle Begins!
RW couldn't handle IG's chaotic pace and quickly lost two games in a row.

In the third game, they finally stabilized their position and dragged the game into the mid-to-late stages. In a rhythm they were more familiar with and adapted to, they successfully won back a game.

But only there.

In the fourth game, IG returned to their familiar rhythm and easily defeated RW.

They easily defeated RW 3-1 and successfully advanced to the Summer Finals!

In the post-match interview.

When Prince Ning was interviewed by Yu Shuang, he was also asked about this issue.

Ning arrogantly stated, "If we meet again, we will definitely beat EDG because our entire team is currently in top form!"

"We are confident that we can defeat any enemy! Moreover, every time we face EDG, it ignites our strongest competitive spirit!"

"We've already secured the Summer Championship and the No. 1 seed! Let's also congratulate EDG on securing the No. 2 seed!"

Prince Ning is arrogant; that's just his personality. To gain his respect, you have to subdue him by beating him.

His arrogant and domineering declaration made the IG fans at the scene extremely happy!
The IG fans watching the live stream were incredibly excited!

"Great! With IG's momentum, no one can predict what will happen! I said it!!"

"Wenbo! Wenbo! Your chance to prove yourself is right in front of you. Defeat EDG with your teammates! Then I'll admit you're a better AD than Kshine!"

"..."

When Wang Yao's personal fans saw such comments, they naturally couldn't help but engage in another battle with IG's fans.

EDG is a top-tier team in the LPL, and its fans are a force to be reckoned with.

Coupled with Wang Yao's strong performance over the past year, his personal fan base is comparable to that of the entire IG team!
Fans from both sides engaged in a fierce online war of words.

Baidu Tieba, forums, Weibo, and supertopics are everywhere, but the reason why Wang Yao's fans have always had the upper hand is that...

Wang Yao has no bad reputation. From his debut until now, he has no dark history to speak of, nor has he done anything that would anger or resent the public.

In the end, even the fans on IG's side didn't know how to respond.

After all, it's a battle between two top teams, and every time it happens, it becomes the focus of attention for the entire LPL region!
Four days before the start of the finals, the entire EDG team arrived in Nanjing, the host city of the finals!

We still need to cooperate with Tencent Esports to shoot promotional materials before the game.

The filming task took up a lot of time.

They couldn't even have a proper training match, and as time came to September 13th.

The highly anticipated LPL Summer Finals have officially begun!
The two teams facing off are IG and EDG!

The LPL playoffs are in full swing, mainly because the Asian Games and the Rift Rivals have taken up too much time.

Logically speaking, South Korea also participated in the Asian Games and the Asian Games, so why weren't they so slow? Ultimately, it's because there are too many teams participating in the LPL league.

The tournament was too long, which is why the Summer Finals didn't start until almost mid-September, and there was still a gauntlet match to play afterwards.

In regions like Europe and North America, the summer season and the qualifying tournaments have already ended, and the spots for the World Championship have been officially determined.

The teams representing North America at this World Championship are Team Liquid, 100 Thieves, and of course, Cloud9, known as the 'Glory of North America'.

C9, this B team, is following the same storyline as in previous years.

He was virtually unknown during the Spring Split, but his performance took off in the Summer Split. He made it into the Regional Finals and secured the final World Championship ticket through the Regional Finals.

In the European region, traditional powerhouse Fantic, led by French legend Caps, won the Summer Split championship and secured the number one seed.

Their second seed was Team Vitality, who pulled off a stunning upset against four opponents early in the season. G2 Esports, having assembled their 'super team,' ultimately secured the final World Championship ticket through the gauntlet.

As for the LCK region, their number one seed has also been determined.

KT, this "old-timer kayak" team, finally lived up to their potential and won a league championship. SKT, on the other hand, secured the second seed with the highest league points.

Only Gen.G, KZ, and Griffin remain to compete in the gauntlet for the final spot in the World Championship.

When I saw this message.

Wang Yao was still in a daze. Gen.G was the Samsung team. They changed their sponsors and therefore changed their name. The roster was still the same group of people from Samsung last year.

However, this Griffin team is entirely composed of rookies.

He had heard about it back when he played in the league before. This year, South Korea has produced a team composed entirely of high-ranking casual players, and their momentum is very strong.

Even their coach is a Challenger player in the Korean server, and he's also a rich kid named Cvmax.

He glanced at Griffin's roster: Sword in the top lane, Tarzan in the jungle, Viper and Lehends in the bot lane, and Chovy in the mid lane.

If this team secures a spot in the World Championship, it seems they will achieve the same feat that Team IM accomplished during the S6 season.

Triple jump!
The LCK league did not implement a franchise system or abolish the promotion and relegation system when teams jumped from secondary leagues to world championship teams.

The LCK league gives the impression that it is in a period of transition, with a new batch of players emerging while the old guard from the previous era has not yet completely retired.

"Tsk tsk, this year's World Championship is quite interesting."

Saint Gun chuckled, "It would be really interesting if this Griffin broke in."

“Griffin?” Meiko listened to the familiar name thoughtfully.

"This team is pretty strong, especially their mid and jungle. I've seen the videos, and Chovy's last-hitting is incredibly strong; he always follows the timeline perfectly."

"And their jungler, he's incredibly strong in ranked games. It seems he has 3-4 accounts with 1000 MMR in the Korean server, and all his accounts combined have over 4000 MMR. People online call him the '4000 MMR' jungler."

Although Wang Yao surfs the internet intensively, he doesn't really care much about foreign news.

I mainly focus on domestic news, and even when I look at foreign news, it's usually about a few familiar people, like Lee Sang-hyeok.

"This jungler is so strong?" Flandre's eyes widened in surprise.

A 4000-point jungler, what a prestigious title!
That sounds impressive.

"Ah."

"But that's all there is to it. Before Yao debuted, he was a 10,000-point AD player, and he had a lot of high-point smurf accounts."

Meiko nodded and said, "On the contrary, their top and bottom lanes weren't particularly impressive, but that's understandable, since their bottom lane wasn't originally designed for the bottom lane."

"What do you mean?" Holy Gun Bro was taken aback.

"Viper started out as a mid laner."

Meiko explained with a laugh, "It's highly likely that what the fans said is true. Griffin had a solo match, with the best player sitting in the mid lane and the weaker players going to the bottom lane."

"Viper's traditional marksman play is not good. Their results were just average. But because the mage carry playstyle was developed in the bottom lane, Griffin was able to stand out. Viper can play more mage heroes than marksman heroes."

"Chovy is really strong. This guy's last-hitting is amazing. No matter what disadvantageous the laning phase is, he can always make sure he gets his minions, which is terrifying."
