Chapter 295 MSI officially begins! Three consecutive S championships, three consecutive MSI championships, we G2 want them all!
On May 5th, although the opening of the 10 MSI Mid-Season Championship Invitational did not officially start until 2019:03 in the afternoon, as early as after lunch, people had already gathered outside the entire Vietnam National Convention Center in Hanoi. A large number of fans from each team came to watch the game.

The atmosphere in the entire Internet world is even more exciting. League of Legends viewers from all over the world are extremely looking forward to the official arrival of this MSI competition.

The reason is very simple. In addition to the fact that they have not watched an international League of Legends event for half a year, it is also because this year's MSI mid-season has adopted a new double-elimination format.

But there is a more important reason, that is, all the eight teams that have successfully advanced to the MSI quarter-finals believe that their teams have a considerable chance to compete for the 2019 MSI championship trophy!

Moreover, every team representative from the top eight teams showed their determination to this MSI competition to audiences around the world in the pre-match promotional video officially released by Riot Games. At the same time, they also took this opportunity to express their determination to their opponents. They said harsh words!

In the promotional video for the first day of MSI, the first person to leave the country is Betty, the adc player of the FW team who is the half host of this MSI competition.

"This year's MSI Finals is in Taipei. I want to say to all Flash Wolves fans that we will definitely return to the stage in Taipei to play the MSI Finals!"

The next person to leave the country was Dark, the jungler of the S8 world champion G2 team.

"In 2017MSI, our G2 team participated for the first time and won the championship. In 2018MSI, our G2 team participated again and won the championship. In this year's 2019MSI, our G2 team participated for the third time..."

"So, our G2 team will definitely be able to successfully defend the title again, and be the first to win three consecutive MSI championships before winning three consecutive world championships!"

The third person to leave the country is Jackeylove, the adc player of the S8 world runner-up IG team.

"In last year's World Championship finals, our IG team failed to prove itself, so in this year's MSI, we will definitely seize this opportunity and make the IG team become the G2 team two years ago, and then start an era for the IG team!"

The fourth person to leave the country is Faker, the mid laner of the former Triple Crown champion SKT team.

"Last year, our LCK division performed very poorly in the S8 World Championship. I was very disappointed. So this mid-season, we will definitely get good enough results and regain the dominance of the LCK division at the same time!"

The fifth person to leave the country is adc player Doublelift who has appeared on the international stage again, and this time, he represents the LCS champion TL team.

"We shoulder a lot of responsibilities. Our TL team is the only representative in the LCS. I know Dark is very strong, Faker is very strong, and IG is also a good team, but no matter who it is, our TL team will defeat them in this MSI. , win the championship!”

The sixth person to leave the country is Mithy, an auxiliary player for the second-seeded OG team in the LEC division and a former S7 world champion auxiliary. He moved to the North American TSM team in 2018 and returned to the LEC division in 2019.

"Since I left the G2 team, I have always wanted to prove that I can still stand alone. Although I failed last year, my OG team and I will definitely not fail again in this year's MSI!"

The seventh person to leave the country is Tarzan, the second seed in the LCK division and the jungler of the newly promoted world's No. [-] team GRF.

"Although the GRF team is a new team in the international competition, we do not think that we will be weaker than any team. Although we failed to create a miracle in the LCK Spring Finals, this MSI, our GRF team will definitely make the world remember us. Five people’s names!”

The eighth person to leave the country is Yagao, the mid laner of the second seed JDG team in the LPL.

"No matter which team we face, our JDG team will go all out to face them, and use positive actions to tell everyone that this year is the most promising year for our LPL division!"

Eight teams and eight representatives. When they appeared in the promotional video on the first day of MSI and stated their goals for this MSI, the global League of Legends audience became increasingly full of expectations for the upcoming MSI main event.

Because everyone can clearly feel the almost imminent fighting spirit between teams, and this means that when all major teams have the same desire to win, this MSI competition will definitely be It will be extremely exciting and beautiful!
So, in the midst of the intense attention of the global League of Legends audience, at four o'clock in the afternoon, after the wonderful opening ceremony performance and the team's debut ceremony that the audience was extremely looking forward to.

This year's MSI main event, the first BO5 matchup in the group stage, will officially begin between the G2 team and the JDG team!

……

"it is good!"

"Welcome to all the viewers on site and in front of the screen to watch the live broadcast of our 2019 MSI Mid-Season Championship Invitational Tournament on time!"

"Hi everyone, I am today's commentary doll!"

"Hello everyone, I am today's commentator Miller!"

At the end of the opening ceremony, when the top eight teams temporarily left the field, the two figures of Baby Miller appeared again in the commentary box of the LPL division.

"Although there is only one BO5 on the first day of MSI today, I believe that all our viewers in the LPL region are very concerned about and looking forward to today's BO5 competition."

"Because today's two sides are facing each other, one side is the G2 team that has won two consecutive world championships, and the other side is the JDG team that is the runner-up in the Spring Split of our LPL division."

"To be honest, I didn't expect that our JDG team was so unlucky that we met the G2 team in the first round of the group stage."

"However, if the JDG team can cause some trouble for the G5 team in today's BO2, and at the same time can learn something from the G2 team, then I believe that even if the JDG team falls into the loser group, they can still I will definitely be able to fight back from the loser group tenaciously!"

As soon as the commentary started, Miller took the lead in saying some "frustrating words."

If it were in previous years, when LPL fans would have been so "inflated by others' ambitions and undermined their own prestige" before the game even started, they would have been furious and would have immediately complained about the commentators.

But this time, when Miller clearly said that "the odds of winning are low," LPL fans did not make any radical remarks, but just smiled bitterly on their faces.

After all, they all know very well that the strength gap between the G2 team and the JDG team is really big.

Needless to say, the G2 team is greater than the IG team than the JDG team. This can be seen from the "grading" of this year's MSI top eight teams.

The G2 team is the only one among the two first-level teams.

The JDG team is the last team to get a seat in the top eight, that is, the last one among the top eight!
It is natural to imagine the outcome of such a duel like "Tian Ji Horse Racing".

"Indeed, although the JDG team is the dark horse in our LPL spring split, when facing the world champion G2 team, I believe their overall strength is still slightly lower than the G2 team. They want to defeat the G5 team in a BO2 game. , the chances of winning are really not good.”

"But this does not mean that our JDG team has no chance to beat the G2 team. After all, paper strength is only a criterion for judging, and personal performance on the spot is the key manifestation that can determine the outcome of the game!"

"In e-sports, cases of the weak defeating the strong still happen quite often, and this is the most attractive part of competitive sports."

"So, I still believe that the JDG team can perform at their due level today. As Toothpaste said in the promotional video, our two teams in this year's LPL division can definitely declare to the world through their actual actions that this year is our LPL. The most promising year yet!”

Wawa said enthusiastically. Although he finally admitted the strength of the G2 team, he was still looking forward to the JDG team's upset and defeating the G5 team in BO2!

"Okay, now we see the players from the G2 team and the JDG team are on the stage again preparing to debug the equipment."

"So before the first game of tonight's BO5 game officially starts, let us know in advance the starting lineups of both teams today."

"The G2 team's starting five are still five people we are very familiar with, top laner Wunder, jungler Dark, mid laner Caps, bottom laner Perkz, and assistant Hylissang."

"The starting five of the JDG team are also five people we are very familiar with. Top laner Zoom, jungler Levi, mid laner Yagao, bottom lane IMP, and assistant Lvmao."

"I was actually very surprised by the JDG team's starting list, because player Levi represented the JDG team five times in the spring split, but unfortunately he failed to win even once, with a winning rate of zero, so most of the time JDG team's The starting junglers are all Flawless.”

"The JDG team chose to let Levi start the game today, obviously because today's competition venue is Levi's hometown, Vietnam." "But I think Levi's appearance is definitely not to give points to the G2 team, but to be a member of the JDG team. Strange move!"

"After all, when the G2 team is studying the JDG team, they must be mainly studying Flawless, but if the Vietnamese Wild King can catch the G2 team by surprise in the first game today, then the JDG team can really defeat the G2 team. Opportunity!"

Miller said with great anticipation while reading out the starting lineups of both teams.

And sure enough, when JDG team Levi player came on stage, countless Vietnamese fans at the scene immediately gave Levi player unparalleled enthusiastic cheers.

"So in other words, this year's Vietnam scene can be regarded as one-fifth of our JDG team's home court?"

"Then I hope that the JDG team can take advantage of their home court advantage to play a wonderful BO5 game for us!"

"Okay, we have received news that the players from both teams are all ready, so let's enter the first game of tonight's BO5 game together!"

Because the G2 team is the No. 5 seed, they enjoy the priority to choose the side in tonight's BO[-], and they took the lead in choosing the blue side.

Sword girl!Galio!Rek'Sai!
Although the JDG team is the last team in the MSI quarterfinals, the G2 team did not underestimate its opponents in BP, but directly banned the JDG team's top, middle and jungle versions of the heroes.

Bron!Tam!Jess!

On the other hand, the JDG team's first three bans were aimed at Hilisan's auxiliary hero with two hands, and Jace, who can swing in the top and middle of G2, was targeted with one hand.

Although in the 9.8 version used in this MSI, the importance of the upper midfielder is self-evident.

But in the view of the JDG team, instead of aggressively targeting the G2 midfielder hero pool that they cannot target at all, it is better to create a better space for the champion ad player IMP to play in the bottom lane, allowing him to do his best in the lane and in the bottom lane. During the team battle phase, he gained a matchup advantage against Perkz players.

But the JDG team didn't know it. Just after they completed the first three bans, the faces of the G2 team players suddenly showed uncontrollable smiles.

Taric, Shield of Valoran!

So the next moment, the first floor of the G2 team almost completed the lock on the hero "Gem" in the form of a second lock!

"gem?!"

"Does the G2 team want to directly take out the bottom lane combination of Gemstone Kotina in the first game of MSI?!"

Although the G2 team only completed their first-hand selection on the blue side, after seeing the lock of the gem, the faces of Doll and Miller were caught off guard and shocked.

"Maybe some LPL viewers don't know that the bottom lane combination of Gemstone Qinnu is a bottom lane combination developed by the G2 team in the past spring regular season."

"And to be honest, the strength of the Gemstone Koto Girl combination is terrifying!"

"Gems can increase blood, and Qin Nu can also increase HP. At level six, there are two ultimate moves that can control and make you invincible. Plus Qin Nu's damage ability as an adc... It can be said that this combination is great when laning in the bottom lane. , not only can it be called a perpetual motion machine, but its fighting ability is also very impressive!"

"But what I never expected was that the G2 team would use such a black technology combination directly in their first MSI game."

"I have to say something very reluctantly, that is, when the G2 team's card strength is much higher than that of the JDG team, they still choose to make a living and engage in such a showy routine!"

"To be honest, I feel a little uncomfortable. I just don't know if the JDG team can think of any way to deal with it."

The two of them said with tears in their eyes, because the G2 team's attempt was clearly to kill a chicken with a knife!
But the next moment, the two frustrated commentators showed overjoyed smiles of surprise.

Silas the Liberator!

Shadow of War Hecarim!

Because when it was the JDG team's turn to select players for the first and second floors, they actually directly selected two heroes who seemed to have a very good chance of breaking through Gemstone Qinnu's routine!
Sylas, as a new hero that officially landed on Summoner's Rift in League of Legends in version 9.2 this year, has been loved by countless League of Legends players since its release.

There is no other reason. In addition to Silas being an AP hero with extremely high assassin burst damage, his ultimate move is so unique that he can directly steal the opponent's hero's ultimate move and use it as his own ultimate move!
In other words, if the G2 team really dares to choose the bottom lane combination of Qin and Nv Gem, then Sylas can directly steal their ultimate moves and provide the JDG team with the same control or life-saving ability in team battles!
As for the hero Centaur, he can also rely on his gank ability and ultimate move Shadow Blast to start a team first against the G2 team's lineup. If there is a chance, Qin Nu and Gems may not even be able to use their ultimate move. Knocked out instantly by JDG team's concentrated fire!
And the most surprising thing is that in the current version, the hero Silas can swing up and down, and the hero Centaur can swing up and down the field. This means that with the locking of these two heroes, the JDG team will be able to swing in the subsequent BP. , you can have more room for adjustment!
"Yes, yes, coach Hongmi is indeed an excellent coach in our LPL division, and his BP ability is indeed remarkable."

"Although our JDG team will definitely not be able to choose Qin Nv as an assistant, once Silas locks this hand, the threat of Gem Qin Nv is instantly reduced a lot."

The two dolls, Miller, who were a little worried half a minute ago, now said with smiles on their faces, with hope for this game rising again in their tone.

The harp fairy Sona!

Jarvan IV, Prince of Demacia!

It was the G2 team's turn to select second and third players. On the second floor, the G2 team selected Kotome as the Perkz player's "adc" hero in this game.

On the third floor, Dark didn't say anything, and first selected the powerful jungle hero Prince. No matter whether the JDG team went to the top or jungle after a while, Prince's ultimate move control could have a considerable restricting effect on it. !
Varus, Arrow of Retribution.

After hesitating for the third-floor hero selection, the JDG team finally settled on the adc hero Varus, who has a strong laning strength. After all, it is easier to beat the piano-girl gem combination with an adc with longer hands and faster lane pushing.

At this point, the first round of BP for both teams ends, and the second round of bans begins.

Enchantress!Ryze!
The last two bans of the JDG team all targeted Caps' mid hero pool, and they were two heroes whose ultimate moves were not easy for Silas to steal.

In an instant, the G2 team immediately realized that Silas would most likely swing to the middle of the JDG team, and Toothpaste would use it.

Pike!Bull head!
However, the last two hands of the G2 team did not respond to this. Instead, they directly banned the green-haired player's two-hand auxiliary hero that can be forced to open, in order to provide a safer development environment for G2's gem piano girl combination in the bottom lane. .

Brilliant Girl Lacus!
After the second round of bans, the JDG team's fourth floor locked the auxiliary hero Lux in seconds. At first glance, it seemed that they wanted to implement the "bot lane push and poke" strategy to the end.

Facing the four heroes that the JDG team has finalized, the G2 team quickly made a decision after thinking about the final two heroes.

Akali, the Thorn of Outliers!
Planck, the disaster of the ocean!
Therefore, with the lineup of the G2 team finally determined, their tactical intentions in this game are instantly self-evident. They want to have a more solid teamfighting ability in the mid-to-late stage after a stable development period. , won the first game of tonight's BO5!

Kennen the Furiousheart.

Facing the top, middle and jungle heroes of the G2 team, the JDG team quickly determined the final counter position on the fifth floor and selected Kennen, a top lane hero who can not only backhand to protect the opponent, but also enter the field first to start a team fight.

With the ten heroes of both teams determined, the lineups of both teams for this game have also been officially formed.

The blue side G2 team, the captain on the top lane, the jungle prince, Akali on the middle lane, Qin Nu on the bottom lane, auxiliary gems!

The JDG team on the red side has Kennen on the top, jungler, Silas in the middle, Varus on the bottom, and auxiliary Glory!
