As Ren Dong's voice fell.
The lights in the venue also began to go out one by one.
The eight teams on the main stage exited in an orderly manner.
The big screen slowly lights up.
A huge '10' appeared.
The audience at the scene understood it instantly, and everyone shouted in unison!
"9!"
"8!"
"7!"
"."
"3!"
"2!"
"1!!"
boom--
The iconic fist hit the screen, and cracks spread.
Then, the screen shattered.
What then appeared on the screen was an aerial view of the Dalian Sports Center.
A burst of exciting fast-paced electronic music BGM also sounded at this time.
The theme song of the 2018 Rift Rivals——Rift Rivals 2018!
in the screen.
Along the river, the sun shines.
Lu Chen, dressed in white, stood at position C, holding IG’s black and white flag with one hand.
Behind them are the other five players from IG. Ah Shui, The Shy and others all put their hands in their pockets and looked at the camera from a bird's eye view.
Voice-over sounds.
"No one can beat us at home in the LPL."
The scene changes.
Draven chased the soul thousands of miles with his axe, the Sword Lady defeated thousands of armies with her sword alone, the prince made a shocking move, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered, covering five people.
The commentator's shouts kept ringing: "IG! It's IG again! Oh my god! They once again played a miracle team!"
Then, the camera turned.
KT's top laner, the uncrowned king smeb, appeared on the screen, and behind him were Mr. Dai and other teammates.
"Last year, LCK lost, but this year, we will fight back everything."
In the background, European and American commentators were also shouting passionately: "Flash! Counterattack! Smeb, God! He completed a solo show in the global finals!"
The camera turns again.
The AFS team also appeared under the leadership of top laner Kiin: "LCK, these three letters represent the first division and the strongest!"
Under the dim light, all members of RW stood behind the yellow-haired Doinb: "We were the ones who won last year. This year, there will be no surprise!"
"Rebuilding the glory of LCK," said Little Peanut, looking up at the sky under the high-rise buildings: "Our goal is only to win the championship."
On the streets with endless traffic, Uzi folded his hands on his chest with a serious expression: "It is our duty to defend the glory of our home court."
On the bridge.
Meikou said with a smile on her face: "We were the champions last year, so this year, our goal is to defend the title."
On the other side of the bridge, Faker looked directly at the camera: "I have never won the Intercontinental Championship. This time, I will take him back with my own hands."
At this point, the BGM reaches its climax!
All the eight teams that played before were standing on the left and right sides, looking at each other from a distance!
"Roar!"
On the LPL side, golden light condensed above, and a divine dragon roared out, with golden thunder in its claws!
"Bah!"
On the LCK side, there is a faint blue light, condensed into a condor, fighting in the sky!
The two are facing each other tit for tat, and it seems that an earth-shattering battle is about to begin!
At this point, the BGM finally stopped.
Bang——
The iconic fist hit the screen, and the big screen gradually dimmed.
The lights in the venue began to gradually turn on.
Wow!
The whole audience was excited!
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck!"
"What was that just now! Damn it, I got goosebumps when I saw it!"
"Fist, if it doesn't work, let's make a movie!"
"This is the card for the final!"
"How do I feel that the CG is better than last year's S game?!"
“Let’s just say, is there a possibility that Riot Games is willing to increase costs on CG just because it made a lot of money last year~?”
Obviously, the opening of this wave made many viewers excited.
"Okay! Welcome back!"
On the commentary table, Miller and Doll were ready.
"This is the final scene of the 2018 Intercontinental Series Asia Competition!"
"Hello everyone, I'm Miller!"
"I'm a doll!"
With that said, Miller looked at the big screen: "Come on, the players on both sides are ready, let's join the players and enter today's exciting BO5!"
First round!
Sure enough, it was the same as Abu and the others thought.
Both sides showed their trump cards directly.
IG VS KT!
It was a pretty bloody game.
On the road, the former number one top laner in the world, the uncrowned king smeb.
Playing against the current top laner in the world, The Shy.
A duel between two top operating monsters!
In the bottom lane, the familiar Mr. Dai faces the rising star Jackylove.
In the middle, UCal, U-King, who is said to be the most promising player to catch up with Faker, faced off against Rookie.
It can be said that the three lines of battle are quite eye-catching!
The director was asked to frequently move the camera in three directions for fear of missing any battlefield!
However.
Nothing happened online yet, but the winner was already decided in the jungle.
The pig girl who scored the old captain's score was clearly arranged by Lu Chen's blind monk!
After being countered several times in a row, KT lost all of its rhythm.
It’s the familiar Athlon again.
In just over twenty minutes, IG had already launched the Dragon Soul Group!
A wave of team battles played one for three, and IG won the Earth Dragon Soul.
At this point, the game is basically over.
KT fought fiercely for 25 minutes with great resilience, but in the end they still could not prevent their base from being pushed.
IG successfully won their first victory and got off to a good start!
LPL 1:0 LCK!
The entire scene and live broadcast room were all involved in a carnival!
There is no doubt that this battle showed the momentum of LPL and the dominance of LPL!
Some people online have even started popping champagne to celebrate.
"As long as RNG and EDG win again, RW won't have to play!"
"Strive for a three-to-zero score and send LCK home directly!"
"Is this the ace of the LCK? What a pity, you are the little king, we are the kings!"
However.
If nothing else, there will be an accident.
second round.
RNG vs. SKT.
The two sides are old rivals.
However, it may be due to a hand injury, or it may be due to the time conflict caused by the Asian Games during this period, and the running-in is not enough.
In short, Uzi, who had high hopes from countless LPL viewers, failed to achieve a breakthrough against Bang and Wolf's bottom lane.
The two sides fought fiercely for forty minutes, and SKT finally completed a comeback.
At this point, the score between the two sides reached a 1:1 tie.
At this time, the LPL coaching staff was actually starting to panic.
Because losing a game means that RW has to play!
You know, in their estimation, RW has a low chance of winning against any LCK team!
However, this is not the end
Game three.
EDG vs. AFS.
Due to their excellent performance in the group stage, everyone thought that EDG had regained its form at this time.
However, AFS top laner Kiin, known as the top mercenary, taught EDG a hard lesson with his Earthfire Captain.
The bastard top laner can't go far in this version!
In the big dragon team battle, the captain used a terrifying three-barrel combo that destroyed everyone in EDG! He directly lost the qualification to snatch the dragon!
There is no suspense in the ending.
In thirty-six minutes, AFS won the game.
The score between the two sides came to 1:2!
LCK, got match point!
Thank you guys for your tips and votes! There will be more tonight~
