Chapter 296 Chapter 296
As soon as the intercontinental competition started, NG and April were in dire straits.

In the LPL lounge, Qin Siqi, who has always been paying attention to online public opinion, was flipping through his mobile phone with a serious look on his face.

The order of participation in the intercontinental competition is jointly decided by the coaching staff of the division. Of course, each team must appear equally.

Originally, Qin Siqi wanted to fight for the opening match, but when he saw NG's manager being so persistent, he gave up after thinking about it.One is that The Sky just won the MSI championship and there is no need to compete with NG for the limelight; the other is...

This year, he recruited Song Shengyan into the team and used some...disgraceful methods. He didn't want to make things difficult for his brother in front of his old club.

NG's opening game was obviously designed. From the first-level jungle invasion to the second-level capture, it established a great advantage in the early stage.But Wave's handling in the early and mid-term was too strong, much better than MSI's. They seized two opportunities in the mid-term and turned back against the wind.This defeat not only made him aware of Wave's surge in strength, but also put a lot of psychological pressure on other teams - how could Wave lose if such a huge advantage could be regained?
Sure enough, in the subsequent group stage, Wave did not lose a single point, helping LCK firmly occupy the No. 1 spot.The Sky and DSA played steadily, and NG and April gradually regained their status. LPL ranked second after losing four BO1 games, and competed with LMS for the semifinals.

At the beginning of the semi-finals, the competition format changed to a BO5 relay competition format, and the order of playing was still jointly discussed by the coaching staff of the competition area.According to the rules, each team must take turns to appear once, and at most twice. If the strength gap between the divisions is large and the game ends in three sets, then the fourth team will not have to appear.

This is based on the principle of fairness, otherwise, if there is a "super team" in a certain division, it would be too unfair to other divisions if it is sent to end the battle in three sets.

Therefore, the order of play in BO5 is not only a competition in terms of team strength, but also a psychological game between the coaching staff and the formation, which is equivalent to the ancient Tian Ji horse racing.

In the semi-finals on the third day, The Sky took the lead, NG played second, April was placed third, and the weaker DSA played last.

"You try to end the game 3-0, our team doesn't want to play at all!" Before the game started, the DSA coach joked to the other three teams.

That's exactly what happened.

The formation of the LMS is opposite to that of the LPL. They probably guessed that they want to end the battle quickly, so they put the last team in the LMS Summer Split to the first place. They hope to use the "Tian Ji Horse Racing" method to win the battle. The score reached 2-2, and the final game determined the outcome.

However, the LPL teams didn't give them a chance. The Sky steadily won the first point, NG followed closely and won the second point, and April did not overturn again, winning the LMS division [-]-[-].

In fact, the LPL coaching staff never thought that they would be upset in the BO5 against the LMS. After all, since the establishment of the league division, the LMS team has won only a handful of times against the LPL. April the day before yesterday was the first in the past five years. Once.

Therefore, after winning the LMS, the LPL coaching team began to intensively arrange the matchup plan for the finals, from scrutinizing the opponent's appearance order to the BP content.The players did not have time to rest, so they were divided into two groups and practiced actual combat according to the coach's BP ideas.

At two o'clock in the morning, the players all went to recharge their batteries, but the coaching staff didn't have the mood to sleep. They discussed until five o'clock, and went through all the tactics that the opponent might implement in detail.
