I just messed around, how could I become the number one in the world?

This third fight took a long time.

But for Gu Chen, it was the easiest one.

He and TheShy were evenly matched in the online arena, and no kills were taken. However, when it came to team fights, Gu Chen's Sion played a big role.

Not only can he start a team fight, he can also carry the team!!

A Q skill charge, if you are lucky, you can also play a good control! !
Of course, the most important thing is.

Gu Chen is living a comfortable life.

It didn't take much effort.

“This is a pretty good fight!!”

"But iboy and hero, you two still need to learn and practice more!!"

"This game should have ended earlier, but I made too many mistakes!!"

After Mao Kai finished praising, he went on to review the situation and give a lecture.

From the early to middle stages.

In the AD position, there is actually no big difference in economy between iboy and jackeylove, and their kills are almost the same.

However, during team battles, jackeylove's operations were more decisive. He achieved good results in several waves, causing EDG to suffer in team battles.

If it weren't for the few waves that followed, when Gu Chen's Sion performed very well and started team fights, EDG might not have won the game.

Especially the last wave of groups.

It’s been more than thirty minutes, it’s already late.

However, the economic gap between the two sides did not widen, and EDG was only leading by less than one or two thousand.

This gap is actually not that big.

No matter who wins the team battle, they will finish off the opponent in one wave.

Fortunately!!
In the last wave, Gu Chen's Sion started well, and iboy's output was also in place, which allowed us to win the team battle! !

Successfully took down the big dragon and pushed down the IG crystal! !
Although iboy's strength is weaker than Uzi, he is not inferior to jackeylove, of course, this refers to his current state.

If iboy can maintain this state, he still has great potential!
"correct!"

"Since IG also wants to practice their lineup, we can practice it too. We still have two games left!"

"Mingkai still has stains, you two should switch over, and fix the lineup in these last two rounds!!"

Maokai also realized at this time that he had only used some old lineups when playing against KT before.

Now we see IG using all kinds of lineups.

Then EDG also made some changes.

At least some of the lineups that were arranged previously can be practiced.

Moreover, the players are in good condition today and are very suitable.

……

Soon the fourth and fifth innings began!!
I originally thought it would take longer.

At least it will be after twelve o'clock.

But unexpectedly, in the fourth game, the advantage ended in less than twenty minutes.

You have to know that starting from the fourth game, they were practicing the lineup, and Gu Chen still chose a tank as the top laner.

However, Zzitai and Uzi performed exceptionally well.

The two of them were like they were given an injection of chicken blood.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m playing my favorite hero, but I’m almost killing it like a god.

The fifth game was also very fast.

Uzi was still killing people in the bottom lane, and the rhythm of the factory manager took off, and the game ended in just twenty-four minutes.

The two games combined, including the BP phase, were over in less than an hour!!
In these two games, IG was still thinking about finding a breakthrough in the top lane, thinking that Gu Chen would play tanky, but this shouldn't be possible for them, right? ?
pity! !
Although I caught it and killed it once, it took too much time to catch it!
Gu Chen’s tank role is so disgusting!
Opportunities are hard to find!

Moreover, although Gu Chen was killed once, their bottom lane was in a miserable situation. They were killed in one wave, allowing Uzi to get two kills and take off directly.

Even in the last game, IG still took the bottom position.

But jackeylove couldn't stand up to Uzi at all and was killed in the lane! !

In fact, hero almost lives in the bottom lane.

Come and catch a wave from time to time.

"..."

After five games, the entire IG training match was silent.

Just like how KT got beaten five times.

All the staff had grim expressions, and they stared at the screen in silence.

Finally, it was Kim Jeong-soo who spoke to break the heavy atmosphere.

"Uzi is in great form, even better than in previous seasons!"

Uzi's competitive state is really at its peak! !
Compared with it, jackeylove is not even close to being good enough!!

And there is also a factory manager.

Once he sets the pace, they will be crushed without any chance to breathe.

More importantly.

If the top laner Gu Chen chooses a warrior, it will really be the end of their IG.

Except for the middle lane, all other positions are at a disadvantage.

In the two games when Gu Chen picked out Irelia and Jayce, that was when IG was in the best condition, but at that time, they still couldn't withstand Gu Chen's team battles.

"This……"

Ning Yangtian sighed and said, "EDG's strength is countless times stronger than in the summer season, and even stronger than in its peak period!!"

Warrior top laner + rhythm jungler + peak stain!!
There really is no flaw in this!!
jackeylove: "The stain is too strong. I just played against iboy and I felt how big the gap is!!"

"In the first two games, maybe it was the lineup problem that limited Stain's performance!"

"But in the end, Stain came on the field again, using his most comfortable hero, coupled with a strong support in the laning phase. I couldn't even line up with him in the early stages of the bot lane!!"

Everyone who heard this had a bitter look on their face.

These five training games were truly the worst they had ever suffered in the entire World Championship.

There is almost no sign of victory.

Depressed!

Too depressing!!
The pressure EDG put on them in the line and team battles was unprecedented! !

Jin Jingzhu sighed, to be honest, he regretted it! !
He really didn't expect that EDG would be so strong in this training match. They were even stronger than when they played against G2!
In the five-game series, IG didn't win a single game! !
Even though EDG played with a substitute, they almost won the game, but they still lost in the end!

"Well, now is not the time to study this!"

"Our current enemy is not EDG, but KT. If we, KT, can't beat them, how can we fight EDG?"

"And I just asked Maokai, KT's scrim was the same as ours, they were completely beaten, so it's not our problem, it's EDG that's too strong!!"

Kim Jeong-soo brought everyone back to the main topic.

And his words made everyone feel better.

KT was also abused...

Then they can be considered to have psychological comfort!
subsequent time.

It’s similar to KT, both are here to guide the players’ mentality.

But then again.

Whether it is KT or IG, their fear of EDG has deepened a lot.

.........

At the same time, on the other side.

The EDG players stood up and stretched.

Most of the day.

From G2 to KT to IG, we have played more than a dozen games.

But fortunately, there is no pressure.

"This is such a great game!" Uzi was getting more and more excited as the game went on. He really enjoyed these two games: "If the game goes like this, I'll definitely win the championship!"

The factory manager also laughed and said: "Now both KT and IG have been crushed by us. At that time, no matter who enters the finals, there will be no pressure! !"

Compared to the game against G2, the pace of this training match is smoother.

Of course, everyone knew that one of the reasons why the fight could be fought so quickly was that Gu Chen brought out the warriors.

In the five-game training match against KT, Gu Chen was always a warrior and the game was over in just over twenty minutes.

The player in the top lane, Smeb, who is considered the strongest top laner in LCK, was beaten to a pulp.

If we talk about today's semi-finals, based on G2's strength, even if Scout is not in good shape, with Uzi and Gu Chen, the game can be ended in more than ten minutes.

After all, compared to smeb, Wunder's strength is much inferior.

Head coach Abu stood up, clapped his hands and said, "Alright!!"

"There's still some time until the finals, so we can't slack off!"

"In today's training match, we exposed a lot of our trump cards, especially Xiaochen's warrior top laner. Although it's time to show them now that we've reached the finals, it's inevitable that both teams will have countermeasures!!"

Although he said so, Abu was not actually too worried.

He has seen from all the games today that Gu Chen's strength is still at its peak.

And there is no way to target his top laner.

Even if the warrior hero pool is exposed, Gu Chen can still play the mage. How can he ban them all? ?
No matter how bad it is!!

Gu Chen can also take out the meat tank to focus on team battles!

Gu Chen’s meat tank has been in use since the summer season, so he is the most experienced.

The most important thing is that these two training matches also allowed him to get a feel for the strength of KT and IG.

After a careful comparison, he felt more confident.

As long as EDG performs normally in the finals, the championship will not be a problem!!
…………

The next afternoon!!

The competition venue in Gwangju, South Korea!!

The semi-finals are about to begin!
The day after EDG played against G2, they faced off in the semi-finals of the other half of the region.

This is also the most anticipated game in the entire LCK.

Because at this moment, KT is the only last team left on the stage.

IGvsKT!!
LPL No. 2 seed vs. LCK No. 1 seed!!
Many people are not optimistic about IG's strength.

Because from the beginning of the group stage to now, the teams we have played against are all weak teams. Although the record is very good, their true strength is still unclear.

Besides, now!

The team IG faces is the strongest team in LCK.

Even the LPL audience doesn't have much hope.

[It’s really hard to beat! KT is very strong, it’s really hard for IG to win! ]

[Yes! There are still many new players in the IG team, all of whom are entering the world championship for the first time. Compared with KT, there is really a big gap! ]

[No? I think IG can still win. TheShy's top lane is very strong, and jackeylove's bottom lane is also good. They may not lose to KT! ! ]

[Yes! Since the beginning of this summer season, I have felt that TheShy's top lane is very strong. Even today's smeb may not be able to beat TheShy in the lane! ! ]

[You guys are just bragging! KT is the number one seed. Even Klin from AFS lost to Smeb. Smeb is the top laner in LCK now! ]

[IG is likely to lose...]

Because EDG won the victory and entered the final stage.

Therefore, no one takes IG's victory seriously.

Of course the main reason is that the team they are facing is KT!

This is the top team of the season!

In LCK, this is the team that has both SKT and Samsung under its feet!
There is no doubt about the strength!

So it is normal to be pessimistic about IG!!

……

At the same time!
The Korean Open is also full of confidence in its No. 1 seed.

Whether in the group stage or the quarterfinals, KT's performance was extremely good.

Therefore, the audience in LCK all think that KT will definitely win against IG!!

[IG's strength is not very strong. I think the most important thing for KT now is to discuss how to deal with EDG. EDG is terribly strong this season! ! ]

[Right! IG is not a concern. KT is so strong that there is no pressure to deal with them. EDG is the big boss. I wonder who is better, Uzi's bottom lane or deft's bottom lane!!]

[It's probably hard to tell, and in this version, you don't need to focus too much on the bottom lane, the main thing is the top lane, have you forgotten? In the games that Maoshen played against G2, he always broke through the top lane, and it didn't matter even if the bottom lane was caught all the time, the fat top laner turned the situation around!! ]

[Indeed! But KT has smeb, so they are not afraid of Smeb. Smeb only knows a few mages in the top lane. Apart from Vladimir and Akali, there is no need to worry about the others without displacement! ]

The Korean side is not overly concerned about the semi-final between IG and KT.

In their opinion, KT is bound to win this semi-final.

So many people started discussing EDG, and even compared Gu Chen and Smeb.

As everyone knows...

At this moment, Smeb's fear of Gu Chen has penetrated deep into his bones! !

Last night, in those five training matches, the warrior top laner that he was so proud of was easily crushed, and his dream of becoming a champion was shattered.

If it’s one or two rounds, being suppressed is not a big deal.

But Gu Chen suppressed him in all five games, killing him alone in every single match! !

The difference in strength is visible to the naked eye!!
…………

Under everyone's expectations.

The semi-finals between IG and KT also kicked off.

"Welcome to the 2018 World Championship Semi-Finals!"

"Today will be the other half of the semi-finals, with IG from the LPL region playing against KT from the LCK region!!"

"How will it end? Please look forward to it!!"

On the LPL side, Changmao's voice was as loud as rainbows and he began to make the announcement.

Today's competition scene was also exceptionally lively.

As the home ground of LCK, many spectators come to support teams from their own regions.

That’s a lot more than the fans on IG.

As soon as the shouts and cheers come out, you can feel it intuitively.

Especially when the five KT players came on stage, the sound was really deafening and overwhelming! !
The game officially begins.

In the first game, both sides were very cautious and neither side was involved at level one.

but.

After laning, KT showed its ability to suppress the opponent, and the jungler's rhythm also took off.

In the first game, KT lived up to expectations and successfully got off to a good start.

KT's fans suddenly became arrogant.

It has been confirmed that KT will enter the finals and compete with EDG for the final championship! !
only!

They were happy for only a short while, because when TheShy replaced Duke in the second game, the whole situation changed.

Smeb, the top laner of LCK that Korean netizens are proud of, picked up Aatrox, but was beaten 0/3 by TheShy's Urgot, while Urgot finished 8/1 and won the MVP! !
This is not over yet! !
In the second game, TheShy taught a lesson with his sword demon. In the team battle, he even hit five of the three stages of Q in the river, resulting in a 0-for-5 team battle! !
In the end, IG won the game!

The score is now 2 to 1!!
KT's situation has become very dangerous. If they lose one more game, they will say goodbye to the finals stage!!
This time, all Korean netizens couldn't sit still.

[What the hell is KT doing? How come they can’t even beat IG? ? ]

[This TheShy was originally a talent in our LCK, but I didn’t expect him to go to LPL. What a hanjian! ! ]

[It’s over! It’s over! Are we going to see a civil war between two LPL teams in the finals in Incheon? I really don’t want to see that! ! ]

[No! This kind of thing must not happen! ! KT, hurry up and do your best! ! ]

[KT should work harder and definitely not lose to IG!!]

They never thought that LPL would have such a top laner, and the warrior was even better than smeb!! (End of this chapter)
