Occupation? I won’t even hit a dog!

When JackeyLove shouted this, the eyes of audiences around the world shifted to the EDG team.

The small IG won all the way and emerged from the group stage, defeating two LCK teams in a row and becoming the first to get a place in the finals.

As long as EDG can overcome G2's obstruction, they will be able to complete the first final meeting in the history of the LPL region. No matter who wins or loses, the Summoner's Cup will belong to the LPL region.

of course.

A small number of eyes are also on G2.

As the third seed in Europe, G2 was once considered the weakest of the eight teams, but with a record of defeating LPL's number one seed RNG, some viewers felt that it was not impossible for G2 to pull off an upset against EDG.

In the early morning of the 28th, G2 posted a picture on Twitter.

The picture shows the G2 starting five and the coach standing in the distance, with a battle flag with the helmet logo printed on it standing behind them.

The key point is the ruins under your feet.

In the ruins are Lucian's relic pistol and Lance of the Soul, the chakram in Sivir's hand, Sion's poleaxe, and Ryze's spellbook. What is more eye-catching is a black and gold flag that is half broken, but the RNG team logo can still be seen.

It is clear.

G2 means to step on RNG to move forward.

As soon as the picture was posted, there was an uproar in the comment section.

[Chasing and beating, right? 】

[Killing people, but also destroying their hearts? 】

[No problem, the strong should severely humiliate the weak]

[RNG's loss to G2 is the biggest joke of this year's World Championship. KT's failure is at least because IG is strong enough, while RNG's failure is because they are not human beings]

[Why does Bathing Dog keep Flash? Of course, he keeps it for going home! ]

[G2's crazy mockery of RNG made me tremble all over. I couldn't help but cover my head with the quilt and laughed out loud in the bed]

In contrast.

EDG's pre-match poster was much more low-key, simply showing a group photo of the seven-member team in front of the Gwangju Women's University Universiade Gymnasium, with two rows of large characters on the right that read "Tell the world, we are LPL."

But in the club’s super chat, a fan posted a very interesting short video.

The cartoon version of EDG landed in Seoul, headed to Busan and Gwangju, and on the way they met Faker who was wearing a shirt with the triple crown printed on it.

At this time, Faker looked at the [4] exposed by the factory manager's side and asked curiously: What do you mean by four-time champion?

Upon hearing this, the factory manager turned around.

I saw that after 4 were three other numbers - 3, 9, and 6.

【4396 The higher you look, the higher you get】

[That's not right. There is no Faker in this year's world championship. This is unreasonable.]

[The World Championship is held in Korea, what's the problem with Faker? Who knows, maybe Faker will go to watch it live]

[MD, it's true]

[To be honest, if EDG could invite Tian Ge to play every year, Zz1tai would have a chance to become a four-time champion]

[Fuck, a road I never thought of]

[Brother Tian = the highest mountain in League of Legends, Faker = the longest river in League of Legends, and Factory Manager = the shortest dirt slope and the longest stinking ditch in League of Legends? ]

[Hahahaha, what a unique skill]

Time passes little by little.

At 3 pm, admission to the Gwangju Women's University Universiade Gymnasium opened.

When all the spectators were seated, the lights in the stadium dimmed and the pre-match promotional video began to play.

The camera moves forward from the widest part of Cheonggyecheon Stream, passing over the bridges connecting the north and the south and the busy crossroads, overlooking the changing weather of the entire city.

As the sun rises and sets, the scene moves to the sports statue in front of the stadium.

“I have always believed in my own abilities.”

“It just hasn’t been shown.”

G2 mid laner Ah P has heard his voice before seeing him: "When our team is running well, it is more conducive to my performance."

Finish this sentence.

Perkz's figure with his arms folded flashed by.

Then, the wonderful performances of G2 vs. RNG were shown, and the commentator shouted: "Perkz! Let RNG explode instantly!" G2 beat RNG to a pulp!

The BGM was perfectly used as "Run".

The original meaning is running.

In this situation, it should be translated as get out.

It can be seen that the LCK officials, who have been stepped on for a whole year, are very emotional and vented all their resentment about being beaten in MSI, Intercontinental Championship and Asian Games on RNG.

【Burning incense】

[Repeatedly whipping the corpse]

[Please don’t let it go anymore, wuwuwu, my stomach hurts]

[UZI: I entered the finals when I was 17 years old, JackeyLove: Me too, Iboy: I was the champion when I was 17 years old]

After Perkz, the camera turned to Iboy.

"The World Championship is an opportunity for us to prove ourselves and let more people know that there are other powerful ADCs in the LPL region."

Compared with last year, Iboy's choice of words is extremely cautious.

Next.

G2 talked some more trash.

The EDG players responded with a calm attitude.

From the speeches of both sides, it can be seen that G2 is clearly trying to encourage themselves, while EDG is quite confident about this game, and every player is in a relaxed state of mind.

"Hello, summoners!"

“Welcome to watch the live broadcast of the 2018 League of Legends World Championship Semifinals, EDG vs. G2!”

"I'm Zeyuan."

"I am Wang Duoduo."

"I'm Rita."

Three commentators appeared in front of the camera.

"In the short video just now, we can see that all the members of EDG and G2 are on the field. For EDG, this game cannot allow for any negligence."

"——G2 defeated RNG 3-1 in the quarterfinals. Although EDG is the defending champion, it is only the third seed of LPL and must take the most serious attitude to face this game."

Ze Yuan said at length: "This year, EDG's overall condition is not particularly good, and Tian Ge's personal performance is also limited by the version, especially because there was an Asian Games before, which made Tian Ge use two trump card heroes. Irelia is relatively better, but Akali is completely unavailable. Compared with last year, the environment EDG faces this year will be more severe and difficult."

[The milk is good]

[The colonel begins to perform his exercises]

[Brother Tian: To be honest, I wanted to protect my teammates, but the opponents kept chasing them, so I had to kill them all.]

【EDG go go go】

Barrages of comments started to appear.

"That's true, but from my personal point of view, I'm more optimistic about EDG."

Wang Duoduo commented on the matter: "Based on the level EDG showed in the group stage and the quarterfinals, as long as they play normally and don't make too many compromises, they have a very good chance of surpassing G2. In terms of hard power, EDG actually has a certain lead."

"The individual strength is ahead, and EDG's execution ability is particularly strong." Rita added: "EDG was originally a strong team in our LPL region. As a strong team, the premise is that it has high enough discipline. After Tian Ge joined EDG, the other EDG players can let go and play the game. With Tian Ge in charge, even if the other EDG players fall into a disadvantage, Tian Ge can pull the situation back."

"Last year's EDG relied more on Tian Ge's carry, but this year's EDG has better overall tacit understanding and cooperation." Ze Yuan made a periodic summary: "It can be said that EDG players can slowly keep up with Tian Ge's rhythm." The three commentators chatted on the stage for more than ten minutes before the first Ban/Pick officially began.

"bring it on!"

"Today is the only BO5 match, and the last semi-final of the entire 2018 World Championship. Whoever wins will advance to the finals and compete with IG for the highest honor in Incheon!"

Ze Yuan's voice suddenly increased.

Loading the Ban/Pick interface, EDG won the dice roll and chose the blue side first, thus putting considerable pressure on the G2 team.

In the first ban, EDG gave Nightmare.

G2 jungler Jankos had a 3% win rate using Nightmare in 100 games, and performed quite well. EDG has the best effect against this kind of hero with unique skills as they have stronger overall strength.

It's G2's turn.

The first person to be banned was the policewoman.

——G2 was the first to use Galit the Evans as AD, using the hero's mechanism to make up for Hjarnan's personal shortcomings; EDG copied Galit the Evans to assist Caitlyn, who played a stronger role than just Galit the Evans. G2 had to pay a precious ban position as they did not have the first chance to grab the hero and did not dare to take Caitlyn.

EDG directly banned the big guy and continued to target his unique skills.

G2 held down Akali to limit Ye Tian’s hero pool.

at this time.

There are four other heroes with similar weights: Aatrox, Irelia, Urgot, and Galio.

EDG thought for a moment and gave the last Ban position to Taliyah, strengthening Galio by restricting other support heroes.

From G2's perspective, the combination of Irelia + Galio must not be given to EDG.

Galio alone is relatively better.

So, G2 chose to ban Irelia and release Galio.

In this version, except for Irelia, the two top laners suitable for split pushing, Fiora and Shen, are not very strong, so Wunder may be able to withstand it.

"EDG got Galio on the first floor, let's see what G2 will choose."

"Oh, locked on to Aatrox + Kai'Sa!"

Ze Yuan read out the heroes: "Kai'Sa can effectively limit split-push heroes, and also limit the role of Galio. Kai'Sa's R [Hunter Instinct] enters the field faster than Galio's [Hero Appearance], and can directly detonate [Plasma] with control heroes to deal high burst damage. EDG will first produce Xayah and Rakan combination on the second and third floors. In this way, the laning intensity will be much higher than that of the opponent."

Speaking only of laning, Kaisa is at most T2.

note.

Yes, the most.

In T2, Kaisa ranks relatively low.

Even if the linkage of Xayah and Rakan's W skills is weakened, they can still be firmly in the top T1 when paired together. In this version dominated by hard supports, G2's bottom lane will most likely be suppressed.

If you are being suppressed, you must prevent yourself from crossing the tower.

Taking this into consideration, G2 took out an Old Cow early on to ensure the development of the AD position.

In the second round of Ban/Pick, EDG targeted the two mid-lane heroes, Leblanc and Lissandra, showing respect to Perkz, the former European King of Mage; G2 targeted Urgot and Shen, giving up four ban slots for Ye Tian.

"good."

"Not the fifth-class top laner."

Wang Duoduo joked: "To be honest, I am a little uncomfortable not seeing the fifth ban top laner, but it is true that Tian Ge can use fewer heroes in this version than last year. In order to make up for the early disadvantage, G2's fourth floor took out a jungler Zhao Xin, hoping to use Zhao Xin to drive the rhythm."

"EDG got...Prince + Jayce on the fourth and fifth floors! So fierce!"

Jarvan has only appeared twice in this World Championship and has never won a single game. Apart from bringing Galio into the game, he has no other role. EDG chose Jarvan because they gave up the hero's strength and only sought functionality in team battles.

Jace was even more exaggerated.

If you are not sure of beating the opponent, who would dare to pick Jayce in an environment full of tanks?
"Prince? Jace?"

"EDG is so arrogant!"

G2 coach GrabbZ encouraged his players: "Boys, this is our chance. EDG has chosen two heroes who are either successful or dead. As long as we can withstand the pressure, the goddess of victory will take off her lace panties in front of us!"

"Think about the RNG before, they were also so arrogant, but in the end, they could only lie on the ground and eat our feet!"

“Yes!” Perkz was excited: “Give me Syndra. We can gain an advantage in the mid and jungle and provide support to other lanes. As long as we can drag the game until the equipment is ready, we can win the game.”

The last choice.

The figure of the Dark Leader Syndra emerged.

After exchanges and adjustments, the lineup was confirmed the moment the countdown jumped to 5.

Blue square: EDG
Red side: G2
Top lane: Jayce vs Aatrox
Jungle: Prince vs Xin Zhao
Mid: Galio vs Syndra

AD: Xayah vs Kai'Sa
Support: Luo vs Lao Niu
"Aatrox vs. Jayce... is still relatively easy in the current version."

Ze Yuan analyzed the hero's attributes: "The Sword Demon itself is a non-cost hero, and its own recovery ability is relatively strong. It has both passive life stealing and the all-around lifesteal provided by the E skill. The resurrection provided by R [Great Annihilation] can better protect itself. After all, Jayce only has one set of burst. In addition, the Sword Demon can also threaten Jayce through the combo of Q [Darkin Blade] + E [Shadow Rush] + W [Infernal Chains]."

[Easier]

【Remember this sentence】

[Sword Demon: Colonel, love is restraint]

【Wunder keyboard suddenly starts to produce milk】

[G2: Can you please take care of EDG? They are using mysterious power]

The audience could see that Ze Yuan intended to poison the waters on purpose.

"You can see that G2 used a system that is similar to the one they used in the quarterfinals."

Wang Duoduo was more serious: "They have tasted the sweetness from RNG, and continue to not care so much about the bottom lane, and focus on the confrontation between the top, mid and jungle. The difference is that the top lane is more resistant to pressure, while the mid and jungle are more offensive."

"The bottom lane was even half given to EDG." Rita continued, "I think G2 deliberately created a disadvantageous bottom lane. If Karsa puts too much energy in the bottom lane, Tian Ge may face threats in the top lane. Jayce has a much lower tolerance rate than other top laners."

"That's right. However, we also saw yesterday that The shy's Jayce fought against Kiin's Aatrox. He was still suppressing the opponent even after being caught and killed once. So tolerance is still a matter of personal ability." Wang Duoduo looked at the screen: "Okay, let's enter the Summoner's Rift together. All EDG members bought their initial equipment and rushed out of the fountain... Brother Tian opened a light gate?!"

"Ah?!!!" Ze Yuan exclaimed.

Light gate.

It's E [Gate of Acceleration].

Most Jayces learn Q at level 1 to burst out with two sets of skills, while a few experts learn W at level 1 to chase the opponent's point.

What does it mean to learn E?
As the commentator and the audience were questioning this, they suddenly noticed something peculiar.

G2 divided their troops into four groups to guard the jungle. G2 top laner Wunder controlled the Aatrox and swaggered into the river from the F6 intersection... Before that, all EDG members had been crouching for three seconds!
Three seconds!

Wunder thought that the heroes on both sides were traveling at roughly the same speed. As soon as he entered the river, the EDG players would definitely not be able to enter the bushes. Seeing that there was nothing in front of him, he swaggered into the bushes.

Step in.

Wunder's eyes blurred.

In front of you are five heroes: Galio, Xayah, Rakan, Jarvan, and Jayce!
This is not over yet.

Galio flapped his wings and blew out [Wind of Justice], and Luo used the delayed control [Grand Debut], making Wunder think he saw the dawn of life, and he immediately flashed and ran back.

As soon as the flash was used, Wunder saw Jayce swinging his hammer at the air and using E [Thunder Clap] at the original judgment point of the Sword Demon.

And Jayce's E has a terrifying judgment.

No matter what displacement skills the target uses or how far he runs, the landing point is completely fixed at that initial position!

Swah——

Mercury's hammer flashed with golden electric light and swept over. A purple damage number appeared on the body of the Sword Demon. He staggered back in front of all the EDG players and was just lifted up by Luo's [Grand Debut].

Xayah, wearing her champion skin, shot out sharp dragon scales, and Prince inserted the lance with the EDG team logo on it. Galio charged up and punched down hard, dealing full damage and beating the Sword Demon to low health. Jayce then took the head worth four hundred gold coins.

First Blood! !
The sound effects resounded throughout the Universiade Stadium.

Wunder and Ye Tian were on the same line. At the beginning of the game, he gave away the first blood and the death flash! (End of this chapter)
