Dean, stop being C, your teammates are not worthy!

Chapter 289 - Grand Slam of the year, battle against ROX!

October 23rd.

3pm.

Madison Square Garden, New York.

At this moment, it was crowded.

The game hasn't even started yet, but the atmosphere in the stadium has already exploded.

Everyone is watching with attention, waiting for the final outcome of the LPL division.

The result of today's IG game will be directly related to the future development of the LPL competition area and the pattern of major competition areas around the world.

"Huh... I feel so nervous!"

A young lady in the front row wearing an IG-Yuanshen support item on her head felt her blood boiling all over as she looked at the venue exploding like a furnace.

This kind of atmosphere to watch the game is simply great!

In addition to feeling a surge of heart, there is also an indescribable nervousness.

"I want to go to the bathroom, can we go together?" she asked her friend next to her.

The friend immediately shook his head: "No, the opening ceremony will start soon. I don't want to miss the opportunity to see my Yuan Shen up close!"

The girl curled her lips: "What's yours? Yuan Shen is mine, okay?"

"snort!"

"By the way, do you think IG can win?"

The pretty girl who was obviously a fan of Yuan Shen couldn't help but look at her friend curiously.

Her friend looked at her with an idiotic expression: "Sister, IG is the number one team in the world, of course we can win!"

"Oh, then I'm relieved."

"The atmosphere of watching the game is great. I hope IG can win. If IG loses today, I will be criticized. Did you see what happened to RNG yesterday? Alas..."

"You can attack anyone, but you can't attack my Yuan Shen. I... huh?"

Before the girl finished speaking, she saw the lively atmosphere of the venue stagnant. The bright venue turned dark instantly!

Bang!

Immediately afterwards, as the IG team appeared on the big screen, the crowd immediately cheered like crazy.

On the big screen, both teams appeared.

The BGM sounded, and everyone from IG appeared in front of the camera.

Times Square in New York City, at night, is filled with colorful neon lights and a variety of beautiful buildings.

Rookie's voiceover came:

"It's not difficult to play against ROX. I have the best teammates in the world. Kuro is not much of an opponent. I'm even more looking forward to the duel with Faker."

The IG people walked lazily on the night streets. The bustling streets of Manhattan were full of lights and entertainment. They were walking in the "crossroads of the world". The figures of the IG people were always visible.

"I think I still have the responsibility and obligation to reach this final!"

The BGM suddenly rose, and ROX mid laner Kuro looked up at the Empire State Building.

"In five years, this is the first time we have seen the hope of meeting in the finals. The LCK division is the strongest. The results of EDG and RNG have said it all."

The three of ROX stood on the beach, and Kuro looked directly at the camera: "Fist thinks that we are the second team, a little worse than IG, but that is just their mistake. Today we are going to prove who is the real world." The first team."

The camera speeds up, and Yuan Shen stands under the Statue of Liberty under the early morning sun.

"I heard that Smeb is worried that I will go to the top lane to beat him this time. I promise here that I will not play top lane because TheShy is enough."

"There are still two final opponents left for the Grand Slam this year. I don't feel any pressure. They are just defeated players. I defeated them in the S5 World Championship last year, so there will be no surprises this year."

Peaunt's figure suddenly appeared opposite Yuan Shen, looking up at Yuan Shen.

"Times have changed, don't always live in the glory of the past, now is the time for young people to take over the game, now is my time.

"I am a fan of ClearLove, but his performance in the quarterfinals disappointed me. Until now, the LPL has not had a local jungler who has proven himself in the World Championship. I hope Yuanshen can give me a different experience. "

BGM reaches climax.

The figures of the two people were pulled further and further away. The Statue of Liberty had her lips tightly closed, wearing a radiant crown and ancient Roman robes. She held a 12-meter-long torch in her right hand and hugged a movie symbolizing the independence of the United States in her left hand. The board of Declaration occupies the center of the screen.

Yuan Shen's voice sounded again.

"Wanghu, I will bring you back to reality. Young man, being too arrogant is not a good thing."

The camera switched to the field, where countless fans were shouting the IG team name crazily!

The fans at the front held up Yuanshen's support signs, which was the same as ever.

The distant view, the dazzling New York at night, is like the most magnificent picture in the world.

The BGM disappeared, paused for a moment, and Yuan Shen said loudly: "Our destination is not New York, but Los Angeles. The sunrise on the West Coast is very good. I want to see it again!"

Bang!

The exciting BGM sounded at the scene, the camera swept across the field, and tens of thousands of people suddenly went crazy.

"IG!! IG!"

"IG come on!!"

“IG awesome!!”

"IG! IG! Yuanshen!"

“IG, rush, rush! Don’t let Los Angeles become a Korean civil war!! The last hope of LPL!

The cheers of the audience were deafening, and there was no foreshadowing. At this moment, for everyone, there was no need for any foreshadowing!

Now, today, when IG has become the only seedling, it is the most explosive moment!

All the fans watching the game were shocked and their expressions were moved. It was difficult to express for a while. They could only frantically scroll the screen with "Go IG"! !

"Summoner on the scene, can you let me feel your enthusiasm again?!"

Ren Dong was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. As soon as he finished speaking, the audience went even crazier. Ren Dong, who was loud, felt that he would be swallowed up by this terrifying sound in the next second!

"Wow..." Ren Dong calmed down and said passionately: "Welcome to New York! This is the 2016 League of Legends Global Finals, the second day of the semi-finals!"

Ren Dong walked to the exquisite Summoner's Trophy and his voice was very contagious:

"Today, at Madison Square Garden, the LPL No. 1 seed IG will face the LCK No. 1 seed ROX team! The winning team will directly advance to the Staples Center in Los Angeles and enter the finals of our S Series. !”

"Oh oh oh!!"

"IG must win!!"

"IG rushes! You must go to Los Angeles, I beg you!!"

The audience shouted.

Ren Dong looked moved. Yesterday, at this moment, he was standing here. At that time, he was very energetic, but RNG did not bring back the result he expected.

He was sad all night about this.

But at this moment, looking at the crazy audience, he rekindled his fighting spirit.

They didn't give up, why should I give up?

IG hasn't lost yet, so why do you say our LPL is not the first division?

Regardless of whether it is possible or not, regardless of the final result.

IG is currently still the number one team in the world! !

Ren Dong completely ignored the previous process and directly took advantage of his status as host and shouted: "Before the show starts, let us all cheer for LPL and IG, okay?! Come on IG!!"

“Ahhhh!!

"IG come on!!"

"IG!! IG!!"

"Oh oh oh!!"

Immediately afterwards, in the dim venue that could accommodate 20,000 people, VR projections suddenly appeared one after another above the heads of the audience!

Exactly the one RNG and SKT had yesterday!

On the only card in the semi-finals, each VR projection has a recorded history and content.

The performance history of the old IG, and the current information of IG's starting five, everything, like a scroll, is displayed in front of the hundreds of millions of viewers watching the game at this moment!

Just like ancient history, it is slowly being told to the global audience. For the audience who were not familiar with IG before, they can understand this team that is now standing on the top stage!

At this moment, the sense of ceremony is overwhelming and the sense of history is overwhelming!

Following the camera across each VR projection, Ren Dong felt even more excited.

In 2012, a team emerged out of nowhere. They did not achieve a very high record, nor were they very impressive. In the past five years, IG has also experienced many ups and downs. After annihilating everyone for several years, in 2015, a brand new IG was reborn from the ashes. They went all the way to win the LPL's first Summoner's Trophy and became the LPL's first World Championship! This year, they won consecutive spring and summer championships and the MSI championship. They are only one step away from completing an unprecedented achievement - a year-round Grand Slam! !

Moreover, they have the opportunity to become the first team in LPL history to win two consecutive championships! ! ! Step by step, they have gone through the LPL finals, group stages, and quarter-finals, and arrived at today's semi-final stage in the best condition! "

Ren Dong's face was solemn and he shouted loudly: "Let's work together again to cheer up this IG!!"

"good!!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

The latest VR projection of the semi-finals can instantly allow global audiences to clearly understand the past, history, and glory or trough of the team. This inspirational drama of never giving up, making a comeback, and returning as the king will always be the main theme of e-sports. It always makes people moved.

However, compared to yesterday's RNG, SKT and today's IG, ROX's resume is too weak.

It even reached the embarrassing situation of having no results to speak of, which once made the audience burst into tears under the pressure.

ROX is too difficult. They don't want ROX to lose, but they don't want IG to lose either...

But today, one of the two teams must be eliminated.

At this moment, after Ren Dong finished shouting, he said with a serious face: "Let us summon the hearts of heroes together! Heroes, let's go beyond together!! Come on Invictus Gaming!!!"

"Then today, my opponent, who is also my partner, is also ready!"

Ren Dong called for his partner, but said with a murderous look on his face: "The one we invite is the LCK Roaring Emperor! Welcome - Quan Yongjun!"

"Oh oh oh!!"

Some LCK fans at the scene immediately cheered. LCK’s famous Roaring King, the host brother, also ran up from the other side of the stage and said with a smile: "Crab, Crab Rendong!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a signature roar: "Hello! Audience friends, hello!!"

Applause was given at the scene.

For ROX, Roaring Emperor also mobilized the audience to cheer for ROX.

After saying this, the roaring emperor was full of momentum. The atmosphere of the duel between ROX and IG had spread to the outside of the stadium. Now, the hosts and commentators of LCK and LPL were all hostile to each other!

"ROX Tiger! (ROX's full name)! Let's welcome ROX!!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The whole ROX team walked onto the stage from the backstage one by one, waving their hands. The atmosphere on the scene had reached its peak.

"Top lane, Smeb!"

"Ah ah ah!"

ROX top laner Smeb looked arrogant. He listened to the host's commentary and the cheers from the audience, and made a pistol gesture. The scene was shocked again.

The roaring emperor also began to introduce the other players one by one.

After everything was over, Ren Dong, who had been suppressing his anger for a long time, shouted with his loudest voice and lung capacity: "After welcoming ROX, the next to appear is the IG team that all of us have been waiting for for a long time!"

"Let me welcome... the name in your heart with the warmest applause!"

Before Ren Dong finished speaking, crazy cheers had already sounded at the scene.

"Ahh!! IG!!!"

"IG!!"

"Welcome IG!!"

Ren Dong continued, and his voice was even broken because of his loud voice!

But no one noticed at this moment, the IG team came out of the backstage of the game, and everyone stood up wherever they passed by!

Countless fans shouted at the top of their lungs, and their momentum completely crushed the first ROX!

"I believe that today, everyone present has only one name in their hearts, that is-IG! Because we want to congratulate IG and hope they will triumph!!"

Seeing this situation, Ren Dong was so excited that he even publicly supported IG!

But at this moment, the public is completely transparent, otherwise the official would not have let a Roaring Empire come to the broadcast station. Everyone unconditionally supports their own team, just do it!

"Top lane TheShy!"

"Oh oh oh! TheShy! TheShy!"

The camera gave TheShy, and TheShy's ID immediately sounded at the scene.

"Jungle--Yuanshen!!"

"Ah ah ah!!"

"Yuanshen!!!"

"Yuan Shen!!"

When it came to Yuan Shen, the voice obviously reached the peak.

It was higher than everyone just now!

Yuan Shen did not feel any surprise, waved to the audience, and the bangs on his forehead were blown away by the heat wave, and the scene became even crazier.

Then the rest of the people were introduced one by one, but unfortunately none of them surpassed Yuan Shen's momentum.

Today, Yuan Shen has become a superstar on the stage of S6.

The world's first Grand Slam player, the world's number one player, the person with the highest honors.

The opening ceremony ended here. When IG was about to return to the competition seats, several people could even be heard begging in the areas closest to the front row: "Please! Don't let Los Angeles become a place for South Korea to fight! Okay, let's go to Los Angeles together!"

"Please! Go IG! Go IG!"

Several fans cried and said, and everyone was moved.

At this moment, they clearly felt for the first time that sometimes the victory of a game could be so important, and they were so full of responsibility.

The steps they took became more and more firm. Although the road ahead was confusing, my heart was as hard as a rock!

"Let us welcome the two teams again, welcome IG, welcome ROX!"

The big screen was split in half, revealing the figures of Ren Dong and the Roaring Emperor.

Welcome to the second day of the 2016 World Finals semi-finals. Hello, everyone, I am Ze Yuan!

"I am Rita!"

"Hello, everyone, I am Li Jiahang!"

The camera came to the commentary seat, and the audience became excited as soon as the third person appeared.

Perhaps it was specially arranged by the official. Today's guest invited Zhang Yida from Love Apartment.

"The game is about to start, and the players ahead are still preparing. Today's game..." Guan Zeyuan said with a smile.

Rita answered and hit the nail on the head: "It's a matter of life and death."

"It's the focus of everyone's attention." Guan Zeyuan smiled and looked at Li Jiahang.

"Jiahang, have you ever known IG and ROX before?"

Li Jiahang nodded, his face still a little gloomy, obviously he hasn't come out of RNG's failure yesterday: "IG, I've been paying attention to it for a long time, because they are also a veteran team in LPL, and they are also the first world championship team in LPL. This year, they won the MSI championship, the world's No. 1 team, and the biggest favorite to win the championship."

"Yes, I'm not worried about IG, but I'm just afraid of one... you know."

"Yes, ROX is a big enemy." Li Jiahang nodded.

At this point, the commentary seat was rarely silent.

More than a strong enemy, right?

Everyone knows that ROX is stronger than SKT. As the No. 1 seed of LCK, ROX is IG's biggest opponent in winning the championship.

"I can only say that the individual abilities of each line of ROX, including the operational ability of team cooperation, seem to be somewhat unsolvable. In this S game, they have crushed every game with an advantage. This kind of terrifying dominance has never been possessed by SKT!"

"Yes, but IG's individual abilities are also very strong. It can be said that this game is a head-to-head battle. I feel that the two teams will not fight back and forth like in the quarterfinals. Using tactics, today's BO5 will be more bloody and end faster!"

"That's right... Believe in IG, believe in LPL!" Li Jiahang smiled.

"There are definitely opportunities. E-sports is full of possibilities... IG's performance still depends on Yuanshen. I think Yuanshen is one of the few players this year who can achieve an 80% gank rate. If you observe carefully, you will find that almost every game IG wins is when Yuanshen has an advantage in the early stage."

"Yes, ROX is very strong in every line and does not seem to have any shortcomings, but their top laner Smeb is particularly outstanding. Let's listen to what the world's top laner has to say before the semi-finals.

The camera turned to the big screen.

Smeb appeared.

"Playing against IG, I have actually been looking forward to it for a long time. Last year, we lost to IG. Yuanshen's top laner is very strong and I am not his opponent, but today, he is a jungler and I think I can suppress TheShy. As for the jungle matchup, I believe Peaunt will give him a surprise."

Smeb's first words caused a huge wave at the scene.

"Yes, I said that our team is the strongest in this year's S game, and I will make all teams kneel down and surrender to us. ”

“Yuanshen? I don’t think Yuanshen’s strength is as terrifying as the outside world boasts. There’s nothing to worry about.”

After the interview with ROX, the scene was completely crazy.

“Wow, ROX players are really confident.” In this regard, several commentators could only shake their heads and smile bitterly.

“Then ROX has made a statement, and IG also has something to say to them.”

After the words fell, Theshy, who was also a top laner, appeared in front of the camera.

TheShy has a quiet temperament. Facing the camera, he only said one sentence lightly:

“Smeb, shoutu! I hope we will have a wonderful duel.”

“Oh oh oh!”

“? ? !”

“Kuang Kuang Kuang!”

“Directly accept Gui Gui as a disciple! !”

“Turtle, this top laner is so fierce! ”

The trash talk from both sides was full of gunpowder and full of fire.

It was like this off the court, not to mention the game.

A few simple words have completely ignited the venue.

"Haha... It seems that Theshy is also very confident. Both sides' top laners are very aggressive players, and the same is true for the jungler. This... I can only say that the real test will be seen on the court!"

"That's right, now the commentary seat in front is ready, let's look forward to it together! I am just representing myself, IG, come on!"

"IG go, go!"

"IG go!"

The three people showed their true feelings, and the camera switched.

Wawa Miller Remember appeared in front of the camera in a formal suit.

"Hello everyone, I am Wawa."

"I am Miller."

"I am Remember Remember!"

"Hello! Hello everyone, we meet again! Yes, it's us again!" Wawa shouted loudly when he came up.

"Ahhhh! !"

"Comfortable!"

"Haier brothers go, go, go! "

Wawa glanced at the burning venue at the moment, and his mood was also very excited and complicated: "Finally here, this last game..."

"Hey, why is it the last game?" Miller shook his head.

Wawa smiled awkwardly and said: "The last BO5 of the semi-finals."

"Oh, that's it."

"Then...IG vs. ROX, the commentary seat in front has already analyzed the two teams in detail, so we won't say any more nonsense, we can only say, come on IG in this game!"

Miller said a little sadly: "RNG has already lost yesterday, and now IG is our only seedling!"

"Yes, as the only seedling, I believe that everyone in IG is under great pressure now, but in the arena, victory can only be exchanged for everything!"

The camera gave the IG people who were closing their eyes to rest, and Wawa said: "But I still hope that IG can put everything aside and just play it as a BO1! Don't be stressed, just play to your strength. "

"The main thing is not to be afraid of ROX! "Miller was a little excited: "This team, through their previous game observations, I found that all teams were a little afraid when playing against them, just timid... This is completely ineffective!"

"After all, it is ROX, the No. 1 seed of LCK, but I am not worried about IG, because those who are familiar with IG know that they are also famous for their fast-paced offense, and in terms of operation, when have we ever been afraid of IG! ! "

"That's right, especially Yuan Shen, he is never afraid! If you pretend with him, he really wants to kill you!"

The audience cheered immediately after hearing the voice.

"Yes, there is no need to say more about Yuanshen's style. In short, if IG's fight against Samsung is a duel between spears and shields, then playing against ROX is a fight between knives and swords! See which side is sharper...!"

"That's right! Then we see that the players on both sides are ready... Let's enter the first game of today's BO5 together! ! "

After speaking, the camera switched and the game officially began!
