“LNG’s team start is perfect! Scout’s Victor is under control, and Viper is also facing a huge threat!” Miller’s voice has already risen to his throat.
However, EDG, this warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles, showed calmness in desperate situations, beyond everyone's imagination!
At the moment Scout was controlled, Meiko's Thresh flashed to the side with a backhand without any hesitation.
He threw out the lantern and pulled EZ over, creating a perfect output space for Viper!
Jiejie's widow did not choose to retreat, and all her skills were piled on Olaf.
Scout's Victor, at the moment of being focused on fire, had already preemptively released W [Gravity Field] under his feet!
The moment the control ended, Icon’s Seraphine and Crisp’s Luo were both stunned in place!
He used his last breath and activated his ultimate move [Chaotic Storm], and the electromagnetic storm began to rage!
The battlefield fell into the most chaotic strangulation! The blood volume of both sides is declining rapidly!
LNG's front row is still struggling with its tankiness, while Light's Kai'Sa is preparing to enter the field to harvest!
However, a man whom everyone had temporarily forgotten arrived.
In the bottom lane, Sumo's Jace pushed his troops to the high ground and beat Ale's Ornn to a low health and forced him home. Without any hesitation, he directly pressed teleport!
A blue beam of teleportation light rose into the sky from behind the LNG!
"It's Mo!! He teleported!" Rita's scream penetrated the entire studio, "He's coming to harvest the battlefield!"
In LNG's team voice, Icon looked at the TP light beam and roared: "Pull away! Pull away! Leave it alone!"
But, it was too late.
Teleport to the ground!
Sumo's Jace appeared in the most vulnerable back row of LNG!
He didn't even pause. He flew out two rounds of QE in gun form, and at the same time activated his W skill [Super Charge]. Three basic attacks with terrifying attack speeds were fired at Seraphine who was closest to him like a laser!
The reinforced cannon and Peace A fell on Seraphine almost at the same time!
Icon’s Seraphine, the core mage who had achieved perfect control in the team battle just now, had her health bar cleared instantly and fell to the ground!
"Melt!! He melted LNG's mid laner!" Miller was completely crazy. He waved his arms as if to tear down the commentary desk, "This is Jace! This is EDG.Mo!"
After killing Seraphine, Su Mo's target immediately turned to Kai'Sa, who still wanted to output.
Light's pupils shrank suddenly, and he handed over Flash, trying to escape from the range of this demon!
However, Su Mo's index finger had already pressed the F key in anticipation!
Follow and dodge!
Switch to the hammer form, use the Q skill [Leap of the Sky] to smash down, and the E skill [Thunder Blow] to swing out!
A heavy hammer smashed Kai'Sa's last hope, along with his health bar!
Several other people had no time to come over to protect him.
With the death of LNG's double C, the outcome of this team battle is no longer in doubt.
· EDG group of people completed the harvest in a devastating manner.
· Only one Victor died on EDG's side, and four people died on the opposite side. They played a wave of 1 for 4, which can be said to be a blood profit.
"It's over! The game may be over!" Watanabe sighed, "EDG doesn't even need this big dragon! They seem to be able to do a wave!"
As he said, EDG's dead man took the troops gathered in the middle and set foot on LNG's middle high ground.
Ale's Ao, faced with five wolf-like enemies, symbolically used his ultimate move to clear the troops, but was quickly melted into the crowd.
Finally, accompanied by the clear and loud explosion of the LNG base crystal.
With the clear and loud explosion of the LNG base crystal, the first game of this semi-final ended with a hearty victory for EDG.
【VICTORY】
A huge victory emblem slowly appeared in the center of the screen among the five EDG players.
「Nice!」
Jiejie was the first to take off his headphones, jumped up from the gaming chair excitedly, hugged Scout beside him who was still thinking about it, and shook him vigorously.
Meiko and Viper also looked at each other and smiled, high-fiving each other in celebration, with relaxed expressions as if what had just ended was just an ordinary qualifying match.
Su Mo was still the last one to take off his headphones.
He slowly leaned back on the chair and stretched, without any trace of emotion on his face. It was as if the earth-shattering teleportation and the double-C feat in an instant were just as simple as drinking water and eating for him.
His calm eyes swept across the black-gold sea boiling for him below the stage, and the corners of his mouth raised an imperceptible arc.
On the other side of the stage, the LNG battle seat was completely silent.
The air seemed to be solid, making everyone breathless.
Assistant Crisp took off his headphones, lowered his hands feebly, and stared blankly at his gray screen, seemingly unable to recover from the devastating defeat of the last wave of team battles.
Jungle Tarzan pursed his lips tightly and reviewed the last wave of decisions over and over again, his eyes full of unwillingness and regret.
Mid laner Icon buried his face deeply in his arms, his shoulders shaking slightly.
Ale, the top laner, is the one with the most exposed emotions.
He scratched his hair hard, his face full of frustration and confusion.
He experienced an emotion called despair throughout the game, starting from the laning phase.
That Jace was like a patch of sky on his way out. No matter how careful he was, he couldn't escape the shadow.
He felt that he was not competing, but being taught a lesson that lasted for more than 20 minutes.
The director's camera very sensibly switched back and forth between the faces of the contestants on both sides, forming the sharpest contrast between the joy of victory and the despair of defeat.
The atmosphere at the scene has already been completely ignited by EDG fans.
The tsunami-like shouts of "EDG", accompanied by the uniform tapping of support sticks, merged into a wave of sound that almost overturned the dome of the entire venue.
At the same time, online barrages on major live broadcast platforms have completely flooded the entire screen.
【it's over! This is EDG! This is the dominance of the dynasty! 】
【Mo Shen, my superman! After that TP was wrapped around, I was so wet! It’s simply a dimensionality reduction blow! 】
【I feel sorry for Ale, I feel like I have been psychologically traumatized. Jace eats your wild monsters in front of you, who can bear this? 】
【LNG's tactics have been implemented very well, and the four-for-two package has also been successful. But there is no way, the boss they hit the road with is a BOSS, and they can't deal with it at all. 】
【"About the fact that my top laner is one big thing ahead of the opponent", "One person's economy is equal to the top two people on the opposite side"]
【Stop bragging, don't brag, regular operations, everyone, sit down! Didn't you see that there was no expression on God Mo's face? He just felt a little bored. 】
Amid the commotion, the players from both sides stood up and walked to the lounge.
The LNG team members cheered up, but the expressions on their faces could not conceal their disappointment.
The two teams returned to the backstage lounge.
This short ten-minute intermission will determine their fate in the next game.
LNG lounge.
"Bang."
The moment the door was closed, the depressing atmosphere in the lounge seemed to have sucked out all the oxygen in an instant.
The team members were slumped on the sofa, and no one spoke.
The coach held the tactical board and wanted to speak several times, but he didn't know where to start.
The failure in the first game was not due to poor execution of tactics or major operational errors. It was a pure, higher-dimensional crushing.
This kind of failure is the most irritating.
"Mine." In the end, Tarzan, who was the core of the team, broke the silence. His voice was low, "My counter jungle was understood by them, and the early rhythm was not achieved."
“No, it’s my problem,” Ale raised his head, with bloodshot eyes. “I was penetrated in the lane, and I allowed him to grow too comfortably, so I gave him the capital to single-lead and team fight in the back. This person... He seems to know every move I want to make.”
"Now is not the time to hold anyone accountable!" The coach finally spoke. His voice was not loud, but extremely firm, which instantly attracted everyone's attention. "We don't have time to regret! We only have a few minutes to figure out how to play the second game!"
He walked to the tactical board and sighed.
"Conventional tactics are no longer feasible." The coach's eyes became sharp. "We can't restrict him online, let alone kill him through gank. In this case..."
He took a deep breath and his tone became extremely solemn.
"Ale," the coach looked at him, "In the next game, I will not choose any hero that requires operation for you. I will choose a pure tank for you. Your only task is to hold him back with your life! Live as long as you can!"
Ale twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that the Ornn I played in the game was not pure enough!
But he did not say this.
"Tarzan, Icon," the coach turned his gaze to the midfielder, "You two, from now on, completely forget the upper half of the map. In your world, there are only the middle lane and the bottom lane! We are going to give all resources, all Gank, to Li ght! We need to use the most extreme "four packs of two", or even "five packs of two", to develop a monster-level AD fifteen minutes ago!"
After listening to the coach's tactical arrangements, the extinguished flames in the eyes of the LNG players rekindled a glimmer of light.
"No problem!" Ale was the first to express his opinion, his eyes were firm, "As long as I can win, I can play anything!"
“Done!” Doinb nodded vigorously.
EDG Lounge: Relaxed atmosphere and strategizing
Perhaps diametrically opposed to the solemnity at LNG, the EDG lounge is filled with a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.
"Brother Mozi, your last TP was so handsome!" Meiko said with a smile, "I almost couldn't stand it on the frontal battlefield, but when I looked at the mini map, my dear, you appeared directly in the face of the double C on the opposite side. "
Jiejie handed over a bottle of water with an adoring look on his face: "Brother Mozi, teach me, how do your Jace's cannons hit people accurately every time? I feel like Light is going to have a psychological shadow."
Su Mo took the water, took a sip, and leaned lazily on the sofa: "It's nothing, just practice more."
This understatement made the corners of Jiejie's mouth twitch.
Abu and the factory director also had smiles on their faces, but they were not dazzled by the victory.
"The fight was good, especially the counter-crouching in the bottom lane and the pull in the last team battle, which was perfect." Abramovich first affirmed the performance of the players, and then changed the subject, "But, they should learn some lessons in the next game."
The director walked to the tactical board and analyzed: "I guess they will completely abandon the top lane in the next game. Ale may use a tank hero to mix the lane, and then Tarzan will treat the bottom lane as their home and carry out endless attacks."
He looked at the bottom duo, Viper and Meiko: "In the next game, you will be under a lot of pressure."
Viper said confidently through a translator: "It's okay, we can handle it."
Meiko also pushed up his glasses and said calmly: "As long as Jiejie can counter squat in time. , we can operate."
"Very good." Abu nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his attention to the leisurely Su Mo, "So, Brother Mo, in the second round, they may let you go and let you play solo on the road, will you be bored?"
Everyone's eyes are focused on Su Mo.
Su Mo yawned and seemed not to be interested in this topic. He just said lightly: "Don't worry, I can win."
This answer is within everyone’s expectations.
Abu and the factory director looked at each other and already had the answer in their hearts.
The bell rang to signal the end of halftime.
The players from the two teams, with completely different tactical arrangements and mental states, rearranged their equipment and team uniforms, held their heads high, and walked towards the brightly lit and highly anticipated stage again.
When the players took their seats again, the lights were focused on the stage again, and the countdown to the second round danced on the huge electronic screen. The atmosphere of the entire Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center had been pushed to another peak.
"Back! Audience friends! Welcome back to the semi-finals of the 2021 LPL Summer Split Playoffs!" In the commentary box, Miller's voice was still passionate. "In the first game, EDG showed us their strong operational capabilities and Mo player's incomprehensible personal strength! They scored the first point cleanly!"
Wawa said with emotion: "Yes! LNG's tactics in the first game were actually very targeted, but EDG's response was even more perfect. Now, for LNG, they are already standing on the edge of the cliff. What tactics will they use to deal with it in the second game? We'll wait and see!"
Rita's beautiful eyes shone with anticipation: "The final game will not only test the operation and tactics, but also the willpower and big heart of the players! I am very curious, after being almost completely suppressed in the first game, what will LNG's top laner Ale do? How to adjust your mentality! "
In the audience seats, the black and gold wave became more and more powerful, while the green flag on the other side, although slightly sparse, was still waving tenaciously, giving final encouragement to the home team.
The camera shows the contestants' seats.
· On EDG's side, the players looked relaxed and even seemed to be joking with each other.
On the LNG side, everyone's face was full of solemnity, as if they were about to go into a war with no retreat.
"Okay! Both players are ready! The second game of BO5, the BP session, will begin immediately!" Miller's voice sounded, kicking off the second act of this ultimate game. (End of chapter)
