Chapter 101 MSI final battle: EDG VS SKT! 【Every day is completed! 】
May 22nd has arrived.
Today is the last day of the entire MSI, and what is about to be played is EDG and... SKT who have reached the finals!
G2 also had no ability to resist in front of SKT. SKT used the same three-to-zero score to announce to the world their return to form.
The three games took a total of one hour and 37 minutes, which was less than 10 minutes slower than EDG's victory over FW.
Simply exaggerated! You know, G2 is not comparable to FW.
Although everyone is fighting against the fifth scum, G2 is still a team that can crush the original WE.
And what about FW? Pure fish belly.
But SKT still completed the brutal killing of G2 very easily, and even G2 couldn't win a single game, and could not survive the terrifying rhythm of three to 10 minutes.
This is, BO5 SKT!
In this era, no one dares to say that they are confident in playing BO5 with SKT.
"Although they suffered consecutive defeats at the hands of EDG in the group stage, we can see that BO5 SKT still showed overwhelming strength!"
"If there is one team in the world that has a chance to defeat SKT, then I would say that this team is EDG who is already waiting for SKT in the finals!"
Accompanied by the impassioned voices of European and American commentators, the last two teams entering the finals were officially determined.
EDG VS SKT!
The sun was already streaming in through the window. Xu Yuan rubbed his eyes, kicked Ming Kai who was still sleeping like a dead pig on the bed next to him, and got up to wash up.
In the mirror, although the young man who had just woken up was a little sleepy, he was still in good spirits.
After he finished washing, Ming Kai finally woke up and was sitting in bed with his head in a coop.
"...can we win today?"
he asked nonchalantly.
"It must be won."
Xu Yuan calmly put on his clothes and replied casually.
"……Too."
Mingkai also felt that there was something wrong with him.
After reaching this point, he asked his teammates if they could win?
Regardless of whether we can win or not, we must win! The two of them got dressed, and Ming Kai looked pretty in the mirror for a while before following Xu Yuan to the gathering place that Abu had specified in advance.
"Is everyone here?"
Abu counted the number of people from left to right.
Nodding satisfied.
Yes, a lot.
Yesterday was the last day before the game, and Abramovich did not continue to schedule training matches.
After training like crazy for so long, I need to relax a little before the final, lest the string becomes too tight and break directly.
But Abu is also afraid that they are too relaxed.
This is Brazil after all.
It would be great fun if you went out wandering around and met some local gangster drug dealers or the like.
EDG has already been the first club to blitz Poland, and they don't want to be the first club to be kidnapped by Brazilian gangs.
So far, things are looking pretty good.
At least everyone is together.
As for the two big bags under the eyes of the iboy who accompanied the team, Abu selectively ignored them.
iboy?who?
Do we still have this person in EDG?
iboy looked at him with some resentment.
Sighed.
Is this why people take tea to cool down?
They used to call me Xiao Zhao affectionately, but now they call me iboy when they see me.
He actually also knew why Abu suddenly became a little distant. To put it bluntly, it was to avoid suspicion and to avoid Xu Yuan misunderstanding.
After all, Abramovich is the coach, and if he chats with the substitute AD every day, it's hard for the starting AD to have no ideas.
So in order to prevent this situation and appease Xu Yuan, the current boss of EDG, Abramovich simply solved the problem from the root.
This is what happened naturally.
Actually, Abu was overthinking this, and Xu Yuan really didn't care about it.
After all, he has always felt that playing well is the last word.
If Abramovich dares to put Xu Yuan on the bench now, EDG fans will immediately explode.
Then the next day, Abu had to switch to a behind-the-scenes position and make adjustments, asking Brother Xu Yuan and others to wait for him to come back.
It's so real.
Now it is not an informal club like before, and the fan economy is very important.
Abu can't do whatever he wants.
So he doesn't care about it at all.
"The execution of tactics must be decisive. I have given specific instructions too many times. Don't let any more problems occur."
Abu gave one last warning and focused on Meiko.
"Tian Ye, the only thing I ask of you is to protect Xu Yuan at all costs, do you understand?"
"I don't want to see you make any mistakes again."
His eyes were serious, without the slightest hint of joking.
Meiko trembled, stood up straight unconsciously, and nodded vigorously.
"Don't worry, coach, it won't happen again."
"You better be."
Abu just said this calmly.
EDG, head to the arena!
At the same time, in SKT's lounge.
KKoma looked at the players who were waiting in front of him and nodded unconsciously.
He was pacing and suddenly spoke.
"We are SKT, do you know what SKT stands for?"
Without waiting for the players to answer, he had already continued talking on his own.
"We have S3, S5, S6, three League of Legends S championship trophies."
"We have one of the only championships in MSI."
“We have countless spring champions and summer champions!”
"We are not invincible. We did not even make it to the World Championship in S4, but we will never admit defeat."
"When I reorganized SKT in S5, I said that we will never experience the humiliation of S4 again. If we can't even make it to the World Championship, I will take the blame and resign."
"From the top of the mountain to the trough, from the trough to the peak, we SKT have experienced countless hardships, but what doesn't kill us will eventually make us stronger!"
"We are SKT."
"Never give in, never give up, never be afraid..."
"SKT!"
He paused and looked at the players in front of him.
"Today, our opponent is EDG, a team that gave us two defeats in the group stage."
"There is no doubt that although their overall strength is not outstanding, they can already become a serious problem for us."
"But, will SKT be afraid?"
He flashed a confident smile.
"No, never!"
"Because we are SKT, if we want to win, we can win!"
"No matter who the opponent is, the outcome is determined the moment we want to win the championship. In the end, it will only be us who win the championship trophy."
He stepped forward seriously and helped the team members adjust their cuffs and collars.
"Come on, boys."
"Take that back, it's our championship."
SKT, let’s go! When the players went to the venue, the venue was already crowded.
Today, League of Legends events are almost the most successful events in the the fifteen-day event, League of Legends fans contributed more than 2 million hours of viewing time.
As of the finals, the number of unique viewers across all channels had reached 3 million.
This number is almost equal to the number of viewers of the 2016 S6 Global Finals.
At its peak, the number of people online at the same time was as high as 220 million. And in the upcoming finals, this number will jump even higher! It can be said that although the results of the LPL are declining year by year, the League of Legends competition is undoubtedly booming!
So even though there are still more than two hours before the start of the game, the scene is already filled with eager spectators.
They held various kinds of support and looked excited.
And among all the spectators, there were some faces that were clearly from Asia.
A large number of them carry EDG support items with them.
Although they were a little worried, they were still full of hope.
Fans who can cross mountains and seas and come so far away to Brazil to support us are absolute true fans of LPL and EDG.
So I felt in my heart that today's game might be difficult.
but!
Even if they can't win, they must arrive at the scene to send their own blessings and cheers to EDG from LPL.
"You said, let's cheer for the stage. Can Yuan Shen and the others hear us?"
"Maybe we can't hear it. After all, the tickets are a bit far from the stage, but we must come."
"Why? It's so fun to watch at home."
"Because they are now in a foreign country, fighting for the honor of the LPL."
"I don't want to see if they win and there's no one cheering for them."
"What if you lose?"
"It's enough to lose. I fucked a Korean twice. It's great!"
This is a live conversation between two viewers from LPL.
This is also a common mentality among LPL viewers now.
Afraid of losing?
Haha, is it really necessary to be afraid of losing in the current LPL? If you really want to be afraid of losing, then you have to be able to win. Otherwise, if you can't win, why would you be afraid?
How many fucking years have you been losing now! Is it necessary to be afraid of losing?
Isn't it just losing? We have long been used to it.
As long as EDG can bite off a piece of SKT's flesh, don't lose too cowardly.
Then it's acceptable.
Keep your expectations low enough so that there are surprises.
Of course, winning is even better.
Everyone is an LPL fan and a rational fan.
"Guigui, we're finally here, there's still one hour left, feel comfortable now."
In a dark live broadcast room that looked like the underworld, Shan Niruo, a fat and humorous man, smoked a cigarette beautifully and looked at the screen with shining eyes.
"Damn it, you idiot, Ye Ye, please don't cause trouble today. Aguang, please hold me steady. Mingkai, please work harder to kill the little peanut. I beg you to be hot!"
"I believe in Yuan Shen. Yuan Shen is the pride of our China!"
"Today's Yuanshen will definitely be able to lead our LPL to defeat the Korean team. All my brothers are shouting to me, LPL will win!"
Niu Baichuan next to him was a little confused. "No, brother Ruo, why are you so excited today? How many have you laid?"
Thief!
In the previous group stage, even though Shan Niruo defeated EDG by five Dabuliu, I never saw him so excited.
Niu Baichuan didn't dare to think about things like this today.
Zhuzhushan Niruo glanced at him and smiled.
Hold up a finger.
"Ten days or not? That's not bad."
Niu Baichuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that the pig would get on top of him.
When the pig jumped into the river, Niu Baichuan would have to go to the Huangpu River to fish for the pig.
too tired! "Hey, it's a hundred dollars."
Piggy smiled, "What the hell, Brother Ruo, what do you want to do? This is a hundred, do you really believe in EDG and Xu Yuan?"
Niu Baichuan was shocked.
Although e-sports had already improved a bit when Zhuzhu retired, he didn't have much money. At most, he got a big contract when he started live broadcasting in 16.
One million is really not a small amount of money to Zhuzhu at this time.
It’s going to be really hard after losing! "No, actually, alas!"
Zhuzhu actually regretted it a little, but he was still holding on.
“Mainly because when I saw it that day, I was really excited by the odds.”
"I can't stand it anymore, you know Baichuan."
Niu Baichuan was completely speechless. "Did you really play EDG?"
"Yes, the odds of betting on SKT are too low. Whoever bets on SKT is a fool."
Zhuzhu nodded and asked immediately.
"Who did you kill?"
Niu Baichuan chuckled: "SKT, not many, five."
"Your mother is dead, Niu Baichuan. You are really a beast. If I play EDG, you will play SKT. And the day before yesterday, weren't you the one who persuaded me to believe that Yuan Shen plays EDG?"
Zhuzhu was speechless by his shamelessness and spit out the fragrance.
A few days ago, Niu Baichuan was still swearing to him.
Believe in Yuanshen!He can create miracles in the finals!I won two games in the group stage, but why did I win three games in the BO5 finals? As a result, he turned around and gave SKT five Tabuliu.
Is this something humans do? "Brother Ruo, don't be discouraged. As I said before, Yuan Shen is trustworthy."
Niu Baichuan comforted him.
"You are so damned, didn't I say that? Oops, I'm a little dizzy now. Baichuan, give me a glass of water, hurry up."
Piggy slumped on the chair, already losing some of its highlights.
After drinking the water Niu Baichuan poured, Zhuzhu finally recovered.
He gritted his teeth as he looked at the live broadcast that hadn't started yet.
"Damn it, it's the next move, EDG, you must win if you step on the horse!"
We have reached this point, and surrendering and losing half of it is probably not enough.
Piggy can only choose: support EDG!
If he wins this time, it will more than quintuple.
That’s more than 400 Dabuliu! When he thought of this number, Zhuzhu immediately became energetic again and murmured to himself at the screen.
"Yes, believe in Xu Yuan, believe in Yuan Shen! He is our pride, he will definitely win with EDG!"
"As long as I win today, Xu Yuan, I can set up a memorial tablet for you and kneel down to you every day! Please, Yuan Shen! Dad! Save me 8!"
At this moment, there are only 15 minutes left before the start of the game.
Abramovich is giving his final explanation, emphasizing tactics.
Xu Yuan was wearing an EDG uniform, with focused and serious eyes.
He obviously didn't know that in the distant LPL, someone was already preparing to build his own ancestral temple.
As the final time gradually passed, the Riot staff responsible for notification knocked on the door of the EDG lounge and notified the players to come on stage.
"Let's go!"
Abu suppressed his nervousness, exhaled, and spoke.
"We have reached the finals, and no one wants to lose."
"Whether it's us or SKT."
"I hope you can seize this opportunity, and I hope I won't hold you back."
"Will win."
Xu Yuan stood up, his eyes determined and confident.
"Let's go, let's go!"
