Chapter 717: Carnival in LPL region!
IG started with a 2-0 lead.
The entire LPL region was in celebration.
You know.
In a match of this intensity in the World Finals, there has never been a comeback from 2-0 down to 3-0.
Winning two games first and holding three match points can almost be equated with the word "victory".
"I'll make it, little IG is so fierce!"
"If they can beat KT like this, they should be able to beat AFs pretty well too. Are they going to meet in the finals?"
"If IG can beat Korea twice, I will be the biggest fan this year."
"IG go!"
"Waiting for the No. 1 seed of LCK to come home!"
“…”
The barrage atmosphere on major live streaming platforms is extremely lively.
Korean players started to abuse the players, saying that the five old guys of KT can only suppress their own team in the region, and just give warmth when entering the World Championship. It would be better for them to retire early and give opportunities to the new players who dare to fight.
What I didn't expect was.
There was a reversal in the next two games.
KT learned from its mistakes and, relying on the combination of three championships and one runner-up plus the rich experience of an old captain, played perfect Korean-style operations in the third and fourth games, recovered two points, and incredibly dragged the game into the deciding game.
After The shy lost, IG lost another game to top laner Duke, which inevitably raised people's concerns.
"KT Rolster is worthy of being the No. 1 seed in our LCK region!"
South Korean commentator Park Se-ryeon shouted excitedly: "They stabilized the situation despite being extremely disadvantaged and won two games in a row. They are in high spirits at this moment, while LPL's IG team was defeated in both lineups. They have run out of tricks!"
"We have reason to believe that KT will become the first team in the history of the S League to come back from a 2-0 deficit to win 3-0!"
When the big and small Koreans in the audience saw this scene, they immediately changed their attitudes.
Start cheering for KT.
He said a series of things like the Samsung Ten are worthy of their reputation, no world champion can be surpassed by a player without a championship, and the Galaxy Battleship is still the Galaxy Battleship after all.
The calls for a comeback from 2-0 down to 3-0 were growing louder and louder.
“IG is in trouble.”
On the EDG side, the factory manager couldn't help but sigh when he saw the hope that had just risen was shattered bit by bit.
In the first and second games, IG used unreasonable attacks to carve out a niche for themselves.
But as the score was tied.
The shortcomings of the small IG were also exposed.
——Nowadays, The shy is strong in laning phase and has more than enough offensive capability.
However, there are certain flaws in the overall view and team battle judgment.
It still needs to continue to hone and adjust in the professional league to achieve the strength of "perfect form".
Duke is experienced and good at team play.
However, the upper limit is relatively low and is not enough to support such a high-intensity battle.
Sima Laozei in the bottom lane was at a disadvantage facing Deft.
One top laner is unstable, the other top laner is not strong enough, and the bottom lane is at a slight disadvantage. It is obviously not easy for IG to open a gap from the Galaxy Battleship KT relying only on the mid and jungle.
After all, KT's operational capabilities are there, and a balance means a guaranteed profit.
Not to mention the mentality.
IG lost with the starting lineup, and continued to lose after changing the lineup.
KT stabilized its footing on the edge of the cliff, won battle after battle, and brought IG to the brink of life and death.
No matter how you look at it, KT is the one that has the absolute upper hand.
Synthesize this information.
Audiences, commentators, and professional players around the world all believe that KT has a high chance of winning the final victory, breaking the record, and advancing to the finals to compete with EDG.
After a ten minute break.
The passionate Silver Scrapes battle song sounded.
Members of the KT and IG teams took to the main stage for the fifth time, with determination in their eyes.
In this battle, IG once again replaced The shy, with Sion on top, Kindred in the jungle, Leblanc in the mid lane, and Xayah + Niu in the bottom lane.
KT took out Raven on top, Taliyah on jungle, two Urgots in the mid lane, and Tristana + Braum on bottom lane.
Crow has no pressure developing against Sion.
Urgot has a strong ability to clear minions and can effectively limit the roaming of Leblanc.
There is no doubt about Tristana and Braum's ability to fight in a team.
It is no exaggeration to say that just looking at the lineup, KT has a 70% chance of winning.
However……
Rookie, who earned the nickname "Chicken Lord", stood up and completed a solo kill on Urgot before level 6.
At ten minutes, Ning was caught and killed while trying to steal the Rift Herald. Rookie used W [Shadow Phantom] to enter the river bend, picked up the disappearing Eye of the Herald, and set the pace in the early game.
Lao Zei and Bao Lan killed Mata in a laning attack.
Ning Wang took advantage of the strength in the middle and lower lanes to control three small dragons, one water and two fire, further widening the attribute gap.
Then.
IG performed an operation that no one expected.
Taking advantage of KT's lack of ability to initiate a team fight, they kept rubbing around the edge, getting a little bit of stuff and then running away.
Using a blunt knife to cut meat, he gradually narrowed the economic gap to 5,000 yuan.
At this time.
Only bystanders can see KT's biggest weakness.
——KT believed that IG would continue to rush, so they only brought out counter-attack heroes.
Even if Taliyah summoned artificial terrain to cover their retreat, these idiots in the front could not threaten IG 's back row in the face of the two big controls, Agni and Sion.
Front row...
Damn it, IG not only got 20% more damage from the W skill [Death Feathers], and the E [Barbed Hook] combined with the feathers to threaten Tristana's Xayah, but also two more fire dragons that increased the attack power/spell power by 16%!
31 minutes and 11 seconds.
KT finally showed the qualities of a veteran powerhouse.
Taking advantage of The shy's driving initiative and a slight disconnect, they established sufficient status advantage by pulling, and used Rock Bird to block the road to retain Baolan who had used all his skills to save his teammates. Relying on the number lead, they pressed forward in an attempt to get more things.
But this moment.
Sima Laozei took advantage of the gap in KT's skills and flashed forward.
Three feathers burst in succession, killing Deft, who was startled and subconsciously took half a step back.
AOE kills the low-health Rock Bird.
E【Hook】Pull back the feather and kill another Mata!
KT's remaining Urgot and Crow were unable to deal enough damage and were sent back to the fountain together!
IG wiped out the opponent and took the Nash Baron.
With the enhanced BUFF, they smashed the middle and lower high ground, and then used the super soldiers to get the ancient dragon, killing KT's top, jungle, middle, and bottom four players, and all members attacked the hub defense tower in front of KT's base.
Mata, who escaped back to the fountain with low health, could only watch all this happen.
42 minutes and 23 seconds.
The giant blue crystal exploded.
In the face of adversity where they were chased for two games in a row, the IG team withstood unimaginable pressure, and with the clearest mind and extremely decisive decision-making, they won the fifth game and sent KT back home!
"Congratulations to IG for defeating KT 3-2!"
The commentator Haokai shouted excitedly: "The top seed of LCK was taken away by IG. The only team left from the three teams participating in the World Finals is the trembling AFs!"
"Let's congratulate IG!" Miller added one more word with uncontrollable joy: "Awesome!"
The audience at the scene and watching the live broadcast on the screen were in a frenzy at this moment.
“IG is awesome!”
"Wait for the finals!"
"Do you know what it means that the little IG doesn't kill the unknown people?"
"KT is trash. They can't even beat IG's translator."
"Congratulations to KT for coming back from 2-0 down to 3-0 down... Star!"
“AFs: Wait for me, I’m not in the car yet.”
"It's okay. We can just walk back to Korea."
“KT: I have strong vision suppression, IG: I can fight…KT: I have strong edge-catching ability, IG: I can fight…KT: My lineup has strong counterattack ability, IG: You never thought, I can also operate!”
"After the 4th game, KT called Rookie over and told him not to forget his nationality. Rookie remained silent after hearing that. After the game, Ning Wang asked him what they said to him. Rookie replied: I didn't understand. They spoke Korean."
"Ahahahahaha fuck."
“Unique skill, really unique skill!”
“…”
All kinds of jokes were played out.
If EDG beats KT, the commentators and the audience will also be excited.
But after all, it was 70% expected.
IG, a team that was not favored by the majority, won two games, lost two more, and finally won the fifth game by playing a completely different game from their usual style. The roller coaster-like ups and downs were more than just "exciting"!
What’s more important is.
Before the match against KT, IG could only be considered as one of the "many strong" teams among the "one super and many strong" teams.
After playing against KT, IG has undoubtedly undergone a transformation and is now qualified to challenge for the world's number one position!
