"Fuck, what Brother Fu said is really good."
At the IG competition seat, Zhiti, who was debugging the equipment, looked up at the promotional video playing on the big screen and said this with deep emotion in his heart.
I clearly didn't see how Li Fu prepared.
But why is his pre-match promotional video so popular?
In comparison, looking back at what I said, it was simply based on the defense.
The posture is confusing!
Is this the foundation of a veteran?
At the same time, the barrage in the LPL live broadcast room was also flooded with comments.
"Tsk tsk, why does Emperor Fu feel so powerful inexplicably?"
"Indeed, the last sentence really opens up the situation."
"No wonder the director cut Fu Huang's scene to the end. The style is elevated all of a sudden."
"I originally thought CLG was pretty good, but compared to Fu Huang, they are so low."
“Love it, love it!”
For a while, many passers-by were attracted by Li Fu.
Come to think of it, since Li Fu debuted, compared to the chaotic e-sports circle after the entry of capital, he does not gamble, P, or have abortions, and there has almost never been any negative news about him.
This is very rare for a public figure who can magnify even a small matter, which only shows that this person is very pure.
Perhaps the only thing worth criticizing is that from the beginning of his professional career until this spring, he has been trapped in a water prison and has not achieved any good results.
In contrast,
This isn't really a disadvantage.
Not to mention the sincerity, purity, concentration, and dedication to and love for his dreams revealed by this person, which can easily infect and move others.
Become a fan,
It seems to be a matter of course.
…
After the promotional video ended, the camera turned to the LPL commentary booth again.
On the commentary desk, Wawa smiled and said, "Okay, our players have already adjusted and prepared. Both sides just flipped a coin, and IG got the priority to choose the side for rounds one, three, and five, and they chose the blue side as expected."
Miller nodded. "Yes, although the blue team must push one person to take the last counter position, but correspondingly, their pressure on BP will be reduced a lot. I can only say that IG played very steadily today."
Guan Zeyuan also said:
"That's right. I think this steadiness is actually very necessary. In the final analysis, every game depends on your on-the-spot performance. There is no match that is 100% sure before the game. The outcome is always unknown before the game starts. The narrow defeat of SKT in the semifinals is a lesson for us. IG is now just one step away from the final championship, so they must remain steady."
"Well, our coaching staffs are ready. Without further ado, let's take a look at the BP of both sides."
Not long after the commentator finished speaking, the three ban positions of both sides were announced one after another.
Blue side IG: Thresh, Troll, Poppy.
Red side CLG: Graves, Ice Girl, and Ezreal.
Miller stroked his chin and analyzed, "IG banned the support Thresh and the top laner Poppy, as well as the swing hero Troll. On the other hand, CLG, haha, the only pentakill Graves in MSI is really not messing with you. CLG can't let it go no matter how crazy they are. In addition, they also targeted IG's bottom lane. I don't know what to say about this Ice Girl. Rookie shouldn't be very good at Ice Girl, right?"
"I can guess a little about this." Guan Zeyuan immediately added, "CLG chose to block the hero Lily, not to make Rookie uncomfortable, but to make their Korean mid laner Huhi play more comfortably. As far as I know, Huhi was previously a high-scoring Korean mid laner who is very good at assassins such as Zed and Yasuo. The hero with the highest appearance rate in the game is Leblanc."
"Eh? If that's the case, then I feel like IG must help Rookie get a Leblanc first? Rookie's two balls and one Leblanc can be chosen, but choosing Leblanc can replace the ban."
The commentator was still analyzing, but the next second, the blue team IG had already locked in the first move.
Wild Hunt Huntress, Leopard Woman!
"Oh! Fu Ge's Nidalee? I remember Fu Ge's Nidalee also had a pretty good performance in the first game against SKT, leading IG to win the first BO5 victory."
"Hmm, so there's nothing wrong with IG grabbing Nidalee. What do you think about CLG?"
CLG on the red side quickly showed their first two moves.
Lee Sin, Leblanc.
In the CLG competition seat.
When jungler Xmithie saw Li Fu’s Nidalee, he immediately picked out Lee Sin.
He said confidently, "I'll play Lee Sin. Lee Sin is good at fighting against Nidalee. The opponent can't kill me or catch me. He can't play against me."
Facing Li Fu today, Xmithie's desire to win was unprecedentedly strong.
To be honest, what he valued was not Li Fu as a person. After all, before this world championship, the ID Padre6 was almost unknown worldwide.
What he really values is the "added value" of defeating Li Fu.
You know, Li Fu defeated SKT's Benji, the double champion jungler, in the semi-finals.
So if Xmithie defeats Li Fu today, wouldn't it be killing two birds with one stone, and also indirectly defeating SKT's double champion jungler?
Suddenly, Xmithie recalled last year's World Championship.
Also from the FNC team in the European and American regions, top laner Huni's value doubled after the game thanks to his outstanding performance in defeating the LPL team's top laner in the group stage.
If he remembered correctly, the person who made the biggest contribution at that time was the IG top laner.
Now it's finally their turn.
Thinking of this, Xmi thie glanced at the IG competition seat across the stage through the transparent competition room, and his eyes suddenly became more and more hot.
Padre 6?
Well, today, let you become the stepping stone for my world championship value!
…
European and American coaches have a relatively low status within the team, and basically their selection of players is mostly based on the opinions of the players.
At this time, hearing Xmithie volunteer, he thought about it and nodded.
He then looked at Huhi in the middle lane:
"You can't give Leblanc to the opponent. Is there anything wrong with you playing Leblanc in this situation?"
"No problem with me. I've wanted to use LeBlanc for a long time." Huhi said with a smile in simple English.
At the same time, as soon as these two heroes were brought out, the three white commentators on the North American LCS commentary desk suddenly became excited and shouted "Imperspo" at the top of their lungs!
Obviously, Lee Sin and Leblanc, two fancy operational heroes, are also very popular in Europe and the United States. They are the kind of choices with a low lower limit and a high upper limit.
CLG's mid and jungle players immediately showed off these two skills. Apart from anything else, their confidence was absolutely maxed out.
The commentators on the LPL stage were also stunned.
"No way? Is CLG going to play so fiercely in the first game?"
"Maybe it's just a show. I don't think he will necessarily choose it."
"Eh? It's locked."
Along with the commentator's surprised voice, IG coach Chris also glanced at Rookie.
"I'll play Ryze. Ryze is easier to fight." Rookie said decisively.
"Ryze is fine." Chris hesitated for a moment and nodded, then turned to ask Shekeke, "If you want another support, do you want Alistar or Braum?"
"Let's go with Niutou, he has better charging ability." She Keke said.
As a result, IG's second and third moves were quickly locked.
Ryze + Minotaur.
Then, the right to select people rotates between the two sides.
CLG on the red team gave the last counter position to the top lane. After seeing Zzitai choose Jayce, unexpectedly, CLG's top laner did not choose the three mythical gods who were more counter-effective. Instead, he showed Quinn as the last pick in a competitive match.
The three white commentators in the European and American commentary booth screamed again!
Obviously, CLG's lineup in the first game of today's finals is very consistent with the "violent aesthetics" of European and American audiences and commentators. If they can win the championship today, they will probably attract a lot of fans.
At this moment, the lineups of both sides have all surfaced.
IG on the blue side: Jayce on top, Nidalee on the jungle, Ryze on the mid lane, Lucian and Alistar on the bottom lane.
Red side CLG: Quinn on top, Lee Sin in the jungle, Leblanc in the mid lane, Caitlyn and Leona in the bottom lane.
As soon as this lineup was announced, the commentator on the stage began to analyze it.
"Let's take a look at IG first. IG's lineup is a double Poke system. In teamfights, Jayce and Nidalee Poke, while Lucian and Ryze harvest. This lineup will reach its peak in the mid-term and have the strongest lineup. However, if it fails to convert its advantages into winning momentum after this point in time, it will continue to become weak in the later stages."
"That's right. Whether IG's lineup can reach its peak in the mid-game depends largely on whether the jungler can set the pace in this game. So this IG lineup depends a lot on Fu Ge's performance. I hope he can be in good shape."
"Well, let's take a look at CLG's lineup. CLG has Leblanc and Lee Sin. The strength of the lineup is still very high. Moreover, if the game drags on to the late game, Leblanc will have more room to play. She is very suitable for forcing a team fight in the river and dragon pit."
“…”
The game loading is finished and the match will start soon.
At the beginning of the game, both sides formed a long snake formation to defend the river. After the game, the junglers of both sides also started in the upper half of the area.
In the semi-finals, IG and SKT played a full BO5, and the commentator said that IG's underwear was exposed. This may be a bit exaggerated, but there is nothing wrong with it.
CLG watched the entire semi-final between IG and SKT and was deeply impressed by the jungler Li Fu who won the semi-final MVP. In today's final, the CLG coach repeatedly emphasized more than once:
——If you want to have a smooth rhythm in the early stage, you must limit Padre6's performance in the jungle.
CLG's European and American players are returning like crazy,
But definitely not stupid.
Korean mid laner Huhi faced Rookie, but he had the same idea in mind as Xmithie.
Like Rookie, he is a Korean who went to other regions as a foreign player, but there is a gap between foreign players. CLG's performance in LCS this season is good, but it is not enough to make Huhi's value reach the ideal state.
But if Rookie is defeated in the middle lane in this final, the man known as the "best Korean aid", even though they are not in the same division, the title of "best Korean aid" will also change hands.
By then, won’t his worth continue to rise?
Therefore, in the first game of BO5, as soon as the mid lane soldiers came up, Huhi, who had chosen the pushing talent and the corruption potion when he started out, pushed the line frantically, determined to secure the mid lane rights in the early stage.
It is very difficult to get a solo kill in a professional competition.
But as long as Huhi gets the line control in the middle lane, he can cooperate with his own jungler to restrict the opponent's jungler, and CLG's strategic goal will be achieved.
Of course, a Korean mid laner like Huhi is meticulous and thoughtful. Even though he mainly played assassins when he was a resident player on the Korean server, he is still a meticulous assassin.
At the beginning of the game, he placed a ward at F4 in the lower half of IG, protecting his own lane safety while also being able to detect Li Fu's movements.
"Oh! CLG's mid laner played very proactively this time. Their mid laner placed a protective ward as soon as he came online."
"That's right, but I think the purpose of this protective eye is also very obvious. Rookie seems to have realized this, and Ryze is also pushing the line against Leblanc."
"Hey, it seems that Rookie got the upper hand in the first wave. Now the troops are heading towards CLG. Rookie will retaliate by finding an opportunity to place a trinket ward at F4 of CLG."
Rookie's eye was just inserted.
The next second, jungler Xmithie's Lee Sin appeared at the eye position.
I have to say that Xmithie, a veteran who has been fighting in North America since S1, does have some experience in combat tactics.
From Rookie's movement just now, he quickly determined that he was exposed to the opponent's field of vision when he brushed F4, and suddenly an idea of taking a radical approach came to his mind.
This scene was quickly captured by the director's camera.
"Eh? Xmithie's direction? He's heading towards the river? Is he going to counter-jungle in Fu Ge's bottom zone?"
"This player is really good. Xmithie was just exposed to IG's vision. According to conventional thinking, he would at least kill three wolves and the blue. But Xmithie did the opposite this time and directly crossed the river to counter your jungle."
"Yes, Xmithie took advantage of the time difference of clearing one less jungle province, and should have caught Fu Ge's time to kill the red buff."
"Now Blind Monk has invaded the bushes behind the red buff camp in the lower half of IG. Fu Ge's Nidalee is killing the red buff. The red buff's health is only half left. Both Blind Monk and Nidalee are at level three. What do you say?"
"CLG had no vision here. Only F4's ward detected Nidalee's movements in advance. It was a completely calculated invasion with blind vision. He couldn't know the red buff's health accurately, but he knew that Nidalee must be worse than him in terms of fighting wild monsters, so Lee Sin went straight up!"
"The red buff is almost in the kill line! Oh! Lee Sin is here too!"
"Fight for punishment! These two are going to fight for punishment this time!"
Swish!
The light of punishment flashed across the big screen.
"Oh! Nidalee's punishment has arrived! Brother Fu is guarding the red buff!"
It has to be said that at the critical moment, Li Fu's punishment was still very strict.
In addition, when he was about to bring the red buff to the kill line, he habitually pulled it into the bushes next to him. This small move allowed him to learn about the invasion of the blind monk in advance.
"Fuck! Is this North American jungler so fierce?"
"Put pressure on Emperor Fu right from the start."
"It really dances just like in the promotional video!"
"Emperor Fu messed with him!"
“…”
The live broadcast room was filled with comments.
However, during the game, Xmithie failed to steal the jungle, but he did not get entangled.
This wave was just an attempt for him.
If you grab it, you will get three buffs. It doesn’t matter if you can’t grab it, you can just go back and fight for it.
As the level increased, CLG temporarily gained control of the line in the middle and lower lanes in the early stage. In addition, the opponent had just used up the punishment in a fight with him, so Nidalee was completely unqualified to come out and compete with him for control of the river crab in the lower half.
On the LPL commentary desk, Guan Zeyuan saw something more.
"I feel like Brother Fu is going to suffer a loss this time."
Guan Zeyuan stroked his chin and analyzed, "Look, now LeBron is level 4, Ryze is level 3, and there is a large wave of soldiers in the middle lane heading towards IG's middle tower. Rookie definitely can't move at this point, so CLG's mid laner Huhi can first assist the jungler to take down the river crab, and then return to the city to replenish his status first. When he replenishes his status and TPs back online, Rookie will most likely have just finished organizing the soldiers. At this time, Huhi can cooperate with jungler Xmithie to control the upper river crab and start the game with two river crabs."
Miller was stunned when he heard Guan Zeyuan's analysis, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that CLG was not idle during the high-intensity BO5 between IG and SKT. They have already eaten this IG very thoroughly. I think IG must be more careful this time."
At this time, Wawa, who had been staring at the big screen, suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, that's not right! After Ahri helped him get the river crab, he canceled his return to the city."
Guan Zeyuan and Miller were stunned, but soon they saw the clue.
Due to the blood exchange consumption during the early stage of pushing the line, Rookie's Ryze was only level 3 and had not yet eaten the tower soldiers, with a health of about 300, while Leblanc still had three-quarters of his health, but his mana was a little insufficient due to frequent consumption in the early stage, and it seemed that he was waiting for some mana to be restored.
At the same time, Huhi, who had chosen Thunder Lord as his talent, had not taken action yet because he did not have Ignite, so in order to succeed in this single kill, he also needed to wait for the CD of the next Thunder Lord.
"Oh! Huhi has an idea this time. While waiting for the mana to recover, he is also waiting for the Thunder Lord's CD." Guan Zeyuan said loudly, "Huhi is going to kill alone this time!"
"What's going on with Rookie? It should be obvious that he has something in mind from Leblanc's positioning. Why is he still confronting Leblanc in front of the tower? Leblanc is waiting for blue and talent CD, what is he waiting for?"
"It's Brother Fu! Rookie is waiting for Brother Fu!"
At this time, Li Fu's Leopard Woman killed the red buff but did not continue to kill the stone man.
He also killed one less group of wild monsters and went straight to the middle lane.
It has to be said that Li Fu's sudden appearance at an inappropriate time directly disrupted Huhi's plan.
But when Li Fu in human form came up directly and used his basic attack to slow down Ahri with his red buff, Huhi seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then gave up the idea of a single kill.
The shadow is lost!
I saw Ahri use W to pull back directly!
"Don't let him go."
A gleam of light flashed in Li Fu's eyes.
"I can stay!"
The next second, Rookie's Ryze flashed and used W to imprison!
Huhi was just a beat slower, and then was shrunk in place.
At this moment, what made him feel even more uneasy was that when he looked back, he saw a javelin coming towards him like a shadow, and with a "puff" sound it pierced into the delicate body of the enchantress.
"Oh! Brother Fu hit the target!"
"Cheetah girl transformed and pounced!"
"Flash! Enchantress uses Flash! Brother Fu follows suit!"
"Enchantress has entered the tower! Her health is very low!"
"Pounce! Bite! Switch to human form and attack! Leblanc can use W to go back, but he can't, because going back would just give Ryze a kill."
As the commentator's speech speed suddenly increased, the next second, a kill message appeared on the big screen.
"IG-Padre6 killed CLG-Huhi!"
"First Blood!"
The game time is 3 minutes and 26 seconds.
Li Fu's Nidalee killed CLG's mid laner Ahri from under the middle lane tower and got the first blood of the game.
"Brother Nicef!" Rookie smiled happily.
The Korean mid laner from LCS on the opposite side was like a chicken with blood injected. He kept taking corrosive potions and constantly exchanging blood with him. He didn't even make much contact with the sword, which made Rookie very annoyed.
Now my revenge has finally been achieved.
At the same time, there was a burst of excited cheers from the competition venue.
"Turtle! Fu Huang's first blood rate is too high!"
"This guy can really get first blood in every game. He is really the first blood guy."
"The key is the route where they didn't spawn the Golem and went straight to the mid lane. I guess CLG's mid and jungle were also confused. I saw Xmithie's hairy face and I guess he thought Fu Ge was spawning the Golem. After killing the river crab, he went straight to his own blue and didn't even think about coming to the mid lane."
“…”
The viewers in the live broadcast room were amazed.
On the commentary stage, Guan Zeyuan, who had just said "Huhi is going to kill a single player", couldn't hold back his pride and said in a speechless voice, feeling a bit disappointed with his friend:
"No, I didn't understand what Huhi did with Ahri. You were waiting for the blue and Thunderbolt CD. Now the CD is ready. If you want to kill me, just kill me. Why are you running away when someone comes?"
Miller also shook his head and laughed, "It's just the mentality of the players. The main reason is that the finals are too crucial. Although Huhi was very aggressive and had a strong desire to kill, in that situation, as a Korean player in the North American region, he must have thought about not making mistakes. It's understandable that he chose to play it safe at the first opportunity."
“It’s understandable, but I don’t agree with it.”
Wawa, with his arms folded across his chest, shook his head and said, "I think a truly top-level mid laner shouldn't be afraid of taking the blame. If you'd rather do nothing than make no mistakes, then what's the point of playing mid lane? Let's put it this way, if Faker's LeBron James plays this game, what do you think will happen?"
"Faker came and killed them all." Guan Zeyuan complained.
Since he was not a player from their own region, the three commentators were very relaxed this time. They did not hold back any face and simply shook their heads at Huhi's operation.
In the CLG competition seat, Huhi's face turned blue and purple.
He originally thought that this solo kill would be his first victory in the BO 5 of the finals , but he didn't expect that the Leopard Woman would suddenly appear and directly disrupt his planned solo kill.
It must be admitted that Huhi did back off at that moment.
After all, there is a possibility of failure when trying to fish in troubled waters.
But giving up is safe.
At least that's what Huhi thought at first.
However, he never expected that IG was equally determined to kill him. Ryze flashed directly to stop him, and Nidalee's final W flash also left him no way to survive.
Damn it!
So infuriating!
Moreover, the first blood that Li Fu suddenly caught was worth more than just 400 yuan.
After killing the enchantress, Li Fu went directly to the upper river and controlled the upper river crab.
Rookie, who had been under pressure in the middle lane, calmly pushed the line back to CLG's middle tower despite having little health left, forcing Huhi's Leblanc to TP to connect, which made him have a TP difference with Ryze.
When Rookie was leading by one TP, Li Fu knew that CLG's jungler Lee Tzu had not appeared just now because he was fighting for the blue buff. After fighting for the blue buff and clearing the bottom half of the area, he would most likely look for an opportunity from the bottom lane, so he told Rookie in advance to pay more attention to the bottom lane.
He is currently clearing the second round of wild in the upper half.
Rooke went back home and logged on again. He was very convinced by Li Fu's words. Even on the way out of the fountain, his eyes were always on the bottom lane.
Sure enough,
Something really happened in the bottom lane.
But I have to say that Xmithie's gank was actually a bit tactical.
He didn't come here after clearing the bottom lane. Instead, he came here after clearing the blue buff and discovered something happened in the middle lane. He cleared a toad, but left a group of three wolves unkilled, and came directly to the bottom lane.
Due to this time difference, the bottom lane will think that he is still in the jungle and thus relax.
But Xmithie overlooked one point, that is, Rookie went home to use TP to go online, but as soon as the fight started in the bottom lane, TP was directly activated on the soldier line.
The commentator on the LPL station suddenly spoke faster!
"Oh! Lee Sin is coming up, and the low-health Lucian uses E to pull back. Alistar should retreat, but IG directly chooses to counterattack! Alistar uses WQ to push up Lee Sin."
"That's right. Fu Ge's Nidalee pinged several signals in advance to the bottom lane. Rookie immediately handed over TP, and Alistar cast Ignite on Lee Sin! "
"Lucian is still dealing damage, Lee Sin wants to use W to go back, Ryze lands, and uses W to imprison Lee Sin. Rookie just added an Amplification Tome, and this wave has some damage!"
"Blind Monk is flashing away! Xiaoshiguang is low on health, so flash and heal!"
"Get it! Get the blind monk's head!"
The game lasted 4 minutes and 26 seconds. Only one minute after the previous wave, IG got its second kill. The momentum of the game was so exciting that the audience was excited .
There was no way. The game against SKT the day before yesterday was too tense. We didn’t know who would win or lose until the very last moment. The LPL audience was also very nervous.
It's nothing like today, when two heads came up.
The team that was killed was the European and American team that jumped the most before the game.
In the CLG competition seat, jungler Xmithie's face turned green on the spot, as if he was constipated.
In one word: awesome!
LPL commentary desk.
Miller said, "To be honest, IG got so many kills in the early game because of the chain reaction of Fu Ge's previous gank."
Wawa also nodded in agreement, "Indeed, Rookie's TP difference is the follow-up of Fu Ge's ganking the mid lane and taking the first blood, just like getting the Baron buff can push the tower. I can only say that Fu Ge completely grasped the psychology of CLG's mid and jungle at the beginning of the game."
Guan Zeyuan, who was staring at the game screen, suddenly raised his voice, "Wait a minute! I feel like the chain reaction of Fu Ge's first blood is not limited to the bottom lane."
"What do you mean?" Wawa was stunned.
"Look, CLG's jungler Lee Sin is walking up after resurrecting."
Guan Zeyuan only said half of his words.
Because the second half of the sentence goes without saying.
Ding ding ding—!
Signals on the small map sounded one after another!
Before Xmithie arrived in the upper zone, Li Fu had already pinged out Lee Sin's movements and route after his resurrection.
Not only that, he had just cleared the second round of wild monsters in the upper half of his own area and crossed the river at the same time.
hiss-!
After a moment of stunned silence, the LPL audience couldn't help but gasp in their hearts. Why did it feel like Fu Huang played better than Zz1tai?
This guy has arranged the opponent's jungler clearly!
