October 15th!
The day when the quarterfinals knockout rounds begin.
Both ig and drx, the two sides of the duel, came to the lounge in advance to discuss the next tactics.
To be fair, as the second seed of lck, drx's strength must not be underestimated.
Therefore, Kim Sang-cheol's strategy is very simple. Use Coco's swing to keep the oldest Rookie in the best possible condition.
For this reason, Rookie will be the first to play. If there is a situation of "overcoming the old man", then let Chizuru replace Rookie midway.
The first team they sent was as follows: the shy (top laner), ning (jungle), rookie (mid laner), puff (ad), and chizuru (support).
There is no doubt that this is ig's strongest lineup on paper. It has no shortcomings at a glance, and ig also wants to use this to get a good start and gain the initiative in the bo5.
So with the countdown to the game, the players from ig and drx entered the venue one by one.
But before the game starts, they still have to die a little bit.
Because as usual, the opening ceremony will show the documentary filmed by the top eight teams.
Below is part of the feature film content!
...
The countdown ended and a piece of rhythmic music sounded.
Then came the harsh words from each team.
tes-jackeylove: "The last time I played against Caps and Ap was in 2018. I won that time."
g2-caps: "In recent years, we have been a little ugly against LPL teams, but that's it. We will prove ourselves."
...
jdg-yagao: "Clid is also our old comrade. As an opponent, there is some pressure, but we will have the last laugh."
gen-clid: "I'm glad you still remember me. This time I will let you understand why I left and why I came back."
Barrage: Because the immortal guides the way!
And what comes next is even more heavyweight.
...
sn-huanfeng stood on the beach: "The boy who once lived on the beach has reached the top of the world. Opponent? If there is no opponent, we will go further."
dwg-showmaker: "The biggest enemy... ig. Because of this, we will not fall here (sn). I want to get back the honor lost by lck, so I have to go all out."
dwg-nuguri: "I'm looking forward to playing against the shy again. I don't care who is the best top laner in the world. I just want to know who else can defeat me now."
...
drx-deft: "I will win, for sure."
drx-pyosik: "IG is indeed very strong, but now I want to take revenge on msc."
He gestured like Kind Jue shooting an arrow, as if IG was his next hunting target.
However, the barrage showed no mercy at all:
"One arrow of revenge? Wrong, three arrows!" (IG's punishment arrows snatched his dragon three times)
"If there were no dragons, vanguards, barons, and ancient dragons, I would call you the best top laner in the world!"
Ig-baolan held Luo's feather, which should have been in the sewers of Madrid, in his hand and flashed his back.
He didn’t say anything, but his B level was very high!
Puff and Nanfeng appeared back to back, and then came their narrations.
Puff: "It's the first time I've reached such a high stage. It's wonderful and makes me want to stay."
Nanfeng: "Maybe I haven't done well enough, but I want to be the one who never makes mistakes and is always a solid backing for ig."
The shy stood still under the light with his pockets in his pocket. The director left a very detailed scene, which was a flash of Ning squatting in the shadow, hiding behind the pillar behind the shy. (implying that Ning is always around the shy)
Then the shy raised his half-black and half-white profile: "Winning, this is...the only thing I can think of."
Ning: "We have climbed to the top of the mountain and become a new mountain, and we have also fallen to the bottom and been ridiculed by others. But as challengers again, the top of the mountain...is within our reach!"
The screen was then shown to Rookie, and the ig dog tag in his hand was swinging slowly. It was passed to him by ig-Xiaoxiao himself, and he will pass it to yskm in 2023 in the future. Do you want to go to class... um... Yu Shuang opens the door...uh...Yang's fast horse?
There are so many names that I have forgotten what yskm is called.
In short, it is a symbol of inheritance!
After lifting him up, Rookie said: "This time, I will protect the glory of ig, just like at the beginning."
Then he threw out the ig dog tag in his hand, and after a transition, it fell into Coco's hands.
She clenched it tightly, and then slowly put the ig's dog tag on her white neck.
This action is completely in tribute to the scene where Xiaoxiao passed down the dog tag to Rookie during the S8 expedition ceremony.
Shock! The future live-action king Yang's Kuai Ma suffered a brutal ntr!
But at this moment, feeling the soul of ig in the palm of his hand, Lin Ruoke solemnly said: "It is our duty to rebuild ig's glory!"
Barrage:
"Rebuilding ig's glory! It is our duty to do so!"
"Coco! What an honor!"
"Holy! The soul of ig!"
The barrage cheered in unison, but the ig people on the stage were different.
Rookie covered his forehead and said, "Wow, why didn't I feel so embarrassed during the filming?"
Lin Ruoke flicked the ig dog tag on his chest: "I think it's pretty good, but as agreed, this thing belongs to me."
Rookie was a little reluctant: "I thought you were only going to wear it for a few days? But... you can give it to you if you want it."
Lin Ruoke heard the sound and said happily: "Thank you!"
Then she directly stuffed the ig dog tag from the collar into her clothes, patted it and hid it.
As a person, this is a hard-won treasure.
And then, the pilot film ended.
Originally, the opening was not bad, but unexpectedly, a young lady and a young brother suddenly appeared on the stage.
Lin Ruoke understood: Okay, we have to start dancing again!
Although the audience in the live broadcast room can see the special effects of "It's the Sea and It's Thunder".
But when it comes to Lin Ruoke and others, there is only 'Thunder'.
In response to this, Pyosik's top laner Dolan also looked like he had shocked his aunt all year long and asked: "This dance...does it have any special commemorative significance?"
The team’s Chinese channel deft said without any emotion: “I don’t understand, but I think Changxian (pyosik) you and them will have a lot in common.”
Upon hearing the sound, pyosike immediately put on the headphones as a blindfold on his head, and then made a blind monk's dragon tail wagging motion: "Yikku!"
And he wanted to turn around and give Dolan a kick, but he didn't expect to hit coach Mike.
Brother Mai: "???"
Drx had a small job here, and he was arrested by the director just after the dance.
"???, pyosik is sick?"
"Hahaha! As expected of you, you are a fun person! You even kicked the coach!"
The awkward atmosphere of the opening ceremony was kicked away by pyosik, which can only be said to be drx's living treasure.
I don’t think there will be another live-action master like him!
The commentator Wang Duoduo also immediately took over the words: "Hello everyone, welcome to the 2020 Global Finals, the quarter-finals, where our No. 1 seed in the LPL will face the No. 2 seed in the LCK, drx. I am Explain Wang Duoduo.”
Xiaoxiao: "Hello everyone, I am the commentator Xiaoxiao."
kid: "Hello everyone, I'm the commentator kid."
Upon hearing this familiar voice, the barrage started immediately.
"Deyunse! Sexy pigeons!"
"Xiaoxiao? Xiaoxiao!"
Let the old players of ig explain the current ig's games. The official will understand the effect of the program.
Wang Duoduo: "I'm very happy to invite you two to explain with me. How should I put it? How are you two feeling at this time?"
kid: "Ig has come this far, so he must be happy."
Xiaoxiao Classic asked for credit: "Trivia, I personally handed Chizuru's dog tags to Rookie in the promotional video just now. Now Rookie hands them to Chizuru. I can only say that I am very relieved and happy."
kid: "That means that ig is not fighting with five people, but Brother Sun, you are also fighting, right?"
Xiaoxiao: "Hahaha, this makes no sense, I just said it casually."
Barrage:
"Why can IG have six players?"
"IG started with one more dragon (Sun Yalong), I can't figure out how to lose."
"And then you are 3 million behind your ex-wife financially, right?"
Wang Duoduo smiled awkwardly after hearing the cheerful explanations from the two guests Kid and Xiaoxiao.
How do you feel...it seems a bit redundant to have these two as the main commentator for ig's game.
Why don't you just temporarily change your name to Wang Yuduo?
However, since it is an official commentary, face still needs to be earned, so he took the initiative to flatter: "You two are also seniors of ig, so there is no need to say more about today's position. Let's rationally analyze ig's winning side. ."
Xiaoxiao no longer has the burden of being a professional commentator. He started a team with a flash: "Does this still need analysis? My evaluation is only one sentence. IG can hide its tactics. Don't be studied by subsequent teams!"
kid: "My thoughts are the same as Brother Sun's. If you look at ig's lineup, you can't imagine how ig will lose. S9's Chovy was beaten by Rookie to the point where he lost his memory. He didn't even dare to pick up a damage hero. They were all tanks. At that time, Dolan was still the substitute of Sword King on the road, and the shy had no problem beating Sword King, but beating him was not a piece of cake."
"As for the jungle...pyosik has some say, but not much. The jungle core is very strong, but Ning has the shy. He has to ask you what pyosik has? Can you, Dolan, help you grab the vanguard?"
Xiaoxiao: "That's what I said, but you have to look at the bottom lane. Deft... is always old, but people become more and more demonic as they get older. Drx can find him as an old demon among everyone, and he has the buff in his hand. Be careful down there.”
"But IG was well prepared and brought Chizuru up. It was clear that they were going to kill Deft. When I was in MSC, Chizuru had a good way of beating Deft. Now that Cena has strengthened, he might even be able to see Senaya. Asking for the reappearance of a classic is terrifying."
The two commentators knew so much about ig that Wang Duoduo felt that he was a bit amateur and was embarrassed to answer the question.
And as if he had seen the barrage, Xiaoxiao added: "It's really not a filial piety, just a rational analysis. If drx can't beat ig, it will win at most, so my prediction is 3-0 or 3-1."
kid: "This is not a breast, I think so too, but I should be more restrained here, I think ig3-1 or 3-2."
Barrage:
""It's really not filial piety" and "Rational Analysis"."
"These two bs really treat the official commentary booth as their live broadcast room, don't they? They dare to say anything!"
"What if you want to support drx? I like people who are straightforward. If you can speak, speak more."
Not realizing that he, as a guest, had stolen the limelight from the main commentator, he smiled and said: "The BP has begun. I won't say much about the first three moves. The Shy's Lucian, Rookie's Syndra and Clockwork must be pressed to death. , because if you dare to let go, ig will definitely dare to choose."
After finishing his words, on the BP interface, the ig blue party moved: Qian Jue, Lilia, and the card.
drx red side moved: Lucian, Clockwork, Syndra.
Kid said happily: "Okay, the pressure from Rookie is very great! You are worthy of Rookie! If IG doesn't talk to you anymore, he must have a male gun directly. King Ning said that I haven't played in a long time, why don't I take the opportunity to play one?" superior."
After the words fell, IG directly locked a male gun.
And Xiaoxiao also sang along with him: "Then drx is going to play Leopard Girl, but Leopard Girl ig won't fight, so there is no need to play first. You can choose a bottom lane combination first, and you have to point deft to C. We need to be given some resources.”
After saying that, drx directly chose Jin + Pan Sen.
kid: "This is okay. There are two early and mid-term tool men in the bottom lane, but they can do damage in the late stage."
Xiaoxiao: "It's possible, but it also stinks! What will you do if IG takes Thresh? Can you Leopard Girl get out?"
IG seemed to be eavesdropping on the commentator's seat and directly took a hand of Thresh + Ice.
kid: "But this Leopard Girl is a must, because if you don't choose this round, IG will move directly. If you don't have Kindred, Leopard Girl, or Lilia in the jungle, how can you compete with the male gun? But if you choose I want to be disgusted by Thresh, and I will be disgusted by Thresh along with Pantheon. There is something wrong with drx's BP, but there is no way, there is no move for Thresh, and the pressure from ig's mid and top is too much."
And indeed, as kid said, drx's Mike was already scratching his head at this time.
He really couldn't understand why ig knew them so well. Now that the two core lanes of the team, the jungler and the bottom lane, were being targeted, he had nothing to do.
In the end, pyosik took the initiative and said, "Give me Leopard Girl, I think it's fine."
Mike: "Are you sure?"
deft: "That's all I can do. It's uncomfortable in the bottom lane, but it's fine in the middle and top lane."
Dolan: "..."
You don’t want to clap yourself this time!
But there is no other way, drx can only choose Leopard Girl.
In the second round of BP, drx moved Quinn on the top lane, and ig reacted and immediately moved the alligator.
Drx will move Jess again, and ig will move Kenan again, and they will clearly do it.
After watching the barrage, everyone exclaimed.
"Damn it! Is this ig's BP!"
"Brother, it's been a long time since I watched a game. Ever since Coco joined ig, has ig's BP been at a disadvantage?"
"I can't help it. There are too many chizuru shapes, which leaves a lot of leeway for the coach. I am the coach. I will directly give the family tree to Coco, and she will fill in the seniority as she pleases."
The top lane has no choice but to let Dolan choose Ornbo's late-game move.
But if you want to show weakness to the shy, he will never be polite.
So when Jin Xiangzhe asked, the shy confirmed: "Lulu, Lulu is easy to beat."
Lin Ruoke said after hearing this: "Okay, Brother Shy, just stole DWG's Lulu male gun."
Ning understood that this was a good round for him, so he affirmed: "It's really good! We hit the road and have perfect lane rights!"
Rookie: "Then I'll be the Czar. I'm not afraid of laning."
ig continuously selected Lulu Tsar, which gave him the right to play both the middle and top lanes.
After reading it, kid explained: "Lulu Male Spear, this combination is quite popular right now. They have no brain suppression in the top lane, and assist the Male Spear in the later stage. Don't worry about anything else in the middle. Just grind hard to create opportunities for the Male Spear in the jungle." The fighting version of classic ig wild core."
Wild core farming? Is the economy booming so quickly?
drx's last choice was to give chovy a plane to brush against.
However, considering that the ability to find opportunities in this way was too weak, and there was no cooperation with Leopard Girl, Zuo Yin was chosen in the end.
At this point, the lineups of both sides were formed.
ig (blue side) vs. drx (red side)
Top lane: the shy (Lulu) vs. doran (Ornn)
Jungler: Ning (male gun) vs. pyosik (leopard girl)
Middle: rookie (Tsar) versus chovy (Zuo Yin)
Bottom lane: buff (ice) versus deft (exhaustion)
Support: Chizuru (Thresh) vs. Keria (Pantheon)
At the first level of the jungle, Ning took the initiative and said: "Brother Shy must be suppressing the top lane. There are no good opportunities. Can you help me invade the lower half of the opposite side? I'll see if I can switch to a jungle area and target the bottom lane in the early stage."
And Coco, who turned into a mother again, said: "Okay!"
So Rookie came over to meet up after taking a good view on the upper side of the river. The four of them passed through the triangular grass, spotted the time when the blue on the opposite side was refreshed, started scanning, stuck on the edge, and ran towards the opposite blue zone.
Originally, ig wanted to force the overlord to attack, but after discovering that the opponent did not provide wards for the lower ones, they temporarily changed their strategy to kicking the widow's door at night.
Quietly drop into the village! No need to shoot!
So when the four ig players appeared, the blue buff was about to be refreshed, and the Leopard Girl had no time to change to the jungle.
And Keria kept sending signals: "The other side is about to invade!"
pyosik: "Is this coming too? I don't want to change to the jungle."
chovy: "Here I come, retreat first. We are not weak at level one, so there is no need to give in directly."
Thinking like this, drx seems to want to take over the team.
But because ig stayed close to the side all the way, the distance was already close enough when they appeared in the blue zone.
Lin Ruoke saw the opportunity and flashed up directly behind Keria.
Keria, on the other hand, was nervous. He was worried about being driven back by Thresh's e, so he simply exchanged dodges. Otherwise, it would be difficult to return to the city if he was beaten at this time.
It's not a loss to switch between flashes, but who would have expected that there was no e after Coco flashed past, but instead a fake a to raise his hand, the chain began to rotate, and then he was thrown out with a hook.
Instead of clicking e, he clicked q!
Keria dodged and exposed Deft, and Coco directly hooked him with a Q.
deft reacted quickly, decisively released the control with a purge and then pulled.
And Coco did not pull him over hastily, because the purpose of this wave has been achieved.
Before anyone could understand what was going on, Kid had already explained: "Chizuru is so smart! He didn't learn the skill immediately at level one, but just flashed over to close the distance. As long as he followed, Pan Sen couldn't escape. scope."
Xiaoxiao: "Yes, in this case, if Pan Sen doesn't exchange dodge with her, she will throw him back to Pan Sen and cooperate with Han Bing's retaining people to attack hard."
"But Pan Sen knew that it was not easy to return to the city now, so he chose to flash to flash save status, but Chizuru went against the routine. Instead of learning e, he learned q to hook people. She changed flash to flash + purification, and gained blood!"
Barrage:
"Scheming aluminum man!"
"I didn't expect that I wouldn't learn any skills when I dodged this wave. Can I still do this at level one? I'll learn it too!"
"Don't learn from it. If you go to play in ranked, if you dodge and don't e, the opponent will just think you are a sb, not a game. It depends on the opponent."
"Huh huh huh, you didn't expect it. I, Coco, am used to... no, I play games with my brain. The opposite side of this wave is on the second floor, and Coco is on the fifth floor!"
Keria realized that she was a little anxious. She could just dodge him again and again, or dodge and dodge the hook, which would only cause her to lose a little bit of status.
But now...
deft has a serious face.
It’s that familiar feeling again!
That feeling of being pressed hard by Chizuru, as if being penetrated!
And at the same time…
