Seoul, Megabox Cinema.
The S9 finals were being broadcasted live on the big screen.
Many SKT fans and LCK fans who were unable to make it to Paris had gathered here to express their support for SKT in this way.
Of course, there were also a few "heretics" who supported FPX. There were international students and Korean locals.
SKT's strength and the glory of winning the Triple Championship had won the hearts of fans all over the world. At the same time, there were also some Korean viewers who liked the aggressive and proactive play style of the LPL team.
As SKT crushed FPX's base and won the first match, the entire cinema was in an uproar. All sorts of support items were waved vigorously, and red scarves with SKT's team logo flew all over the place.
“SKT! SKT! We're SKT! "
"Go Faker, bring back the championship trophy."
"Li Xu, I won't scold you anymore. Win the match in one go."
Although it was only the first victory, to the LCK team who had been absent from the S Tournament finals for two years, it felt like they had been waiting for a long time.
"Go Xiang He! Go Li Xu! Go SKT! "
Zhao Enjing jumped up excitedly and joined the excited crowd, waving the scarves in her hands.
"Enjing, be careful."
A quiet girl beside her saw how excited her friend was and tugged at Zhao Enjing's sleeve. It was Lee Encan, who had participated in the lucky bag auction with Zhao Enjing at Ewha Women's University.
Zhao Enjing turned to look at Lee Encan with a bright smile on her face. She pointed at the image on the big screen.
"Look, isn't Xiang He handsome today? He's as handsome as my brother. "
On the screen, Li Ge waved at the camera in front of him and smiled. He then stood up and patted Li Xu's shoulder. Li Xu calmly took off his headphones and stood up as well.
Lee Encan took a closer look and then carefully looked at his good friend.
Hmm … Are your eyes crooked? Was "equally handsome" complimenting Xiang He or disparaging Li Xu?
Also, didn't you say that you hate Li Xu calling you brother?
… ….
After winning the first game, Li Xu followed his teammates back to the lounge.
Jin Zhengxun stood at the entrance of the lounge and patted the shoulders of his disciples one by one. Seeing that his team members were in good condition, the coach naturally heaved a sigh of relief.
There were too many young players in the team. What they were most afraid of was that they would suddenly become incapable of playing the game after suffering a little setback in the finals.
Jin Zhengxun had even thought about how he should adjust if he lost one or two games in a row.
Once such a situation occurred, it was very difficult to adjust in a short period of time. This was also the reason why it was so rare to have two players chasing three players in a BO5 match.
There were quite a few matches that lasted for five rounds, but the chances of a team making a comeback after losing two rounds in a row were too slim. Teams that were dealt a heavy blow at the beginning of the match would often be forced to change their tactics instead of fighting back.
Just like this year's GRF, in the two LCK finals against SKT, they still had the ability to fight back in the first round, but the second round became one-sided, and then they were slaughtered in the last round. The two finals in a row were the same.
Jin Zhengxun said, "Everyone is in good condition today, but Shiheng's vision needs to be set further. The opponent's support roamed very actively. In the next round, you should try to roam as early as possible. You don't have to catch people, but you must open up your vision."
Mata nodded. In the previous round, the opponent's Stone Hammer roamed very actively. If it wasn't for Li Xu's Peck, Li Ge's muggles in the middle would have been very damaging.
Teddy suggested, "Let's return the Peck to Li Xu in the next round. This is the most relaxing game I've ever played. It's too easy to win as long as you develop."
Clid agreed. "I've been farming in the jungle, and suddenly I have a huge advantage in controlling the resources in the jungle. I don't know why the opponent keeps giving me the advantage."
Li Xu was speechless. Is that what you call giving me the advantage? It was obvious that Xu Ge played well. If it was any other top laner, the opponent would have destroyed him in the early game.
Jin Zhengxun clapped his hands. "No matter what kind of lineup you get, play what you're supposed to play. Just play the game as we usually do. Don't be afraid of making mistakes."
Li Xu thought for a while. "Coach, can you give me an Yasso?"
Jin Zhengxun was speechless.
Everyone in the waiting room turned to look at Li Jiu in unison. The look in their eyes said, "You're talking about Hammer."
I'm not asking you to be afraid of making mistakes, I'm not asking you to play with snakes.
Li Xu looked serious. "I've been secretly practicing Yasso for a long time recently. I promise I'll play it well. I won't mess around."
Lin Yuqing had done a lot of homework in order to watch Li Xu play in the game. Of course, she knew the name of Yasso, the Foot Grabber. She even teased him about it.
Now that he was in top form, Li Xu felt that it was time to prove himself.
However, other than Li Xu, the others didn't think so.
Who knew if Li Xu would prove that his Yasso was indeed Foot Grabber?
Jin Zhengxun thought for a while. "After all, we don't usually practice Yasso's lineup. Besides, the next game will be in the blue side. There's no need to get Yasso when we have the advantage of BP. Let's win the next game first."
Using emotions to persuade and reason to persuade.
Anyway, they didn't say that Li Xu's Yasso was bad. As for the meaning … they could only figure it out themselves.
"Then, if there's a chance in the third game, you must use it on me. If you make me do a handstand, I'll wash my hair."
Jin Zhengxun: "… We'll see."
Since the coach said so, what else could Li Xu do?
Although sometimes Li Xu seemed to have no choice in picking heroes, he had discussed it with the coach. He didn't take whatever he wanted.
Li Xu suddenly thought of a historical problem. "Oh right, coach, have you decided on the wedding date?"
Jin Zhengxun hadn't given a definite answer since the beginning of the year. Li Xu even suspected that the coach was going to end the year as a bachelor again.
"We've already decided to get married after winning the championship this year. It's set for the end of next month. I'll send you guys an invitation then." Jin Zhengxun was a little embarrassed. This group of players was especially concerned about his personal matters.
"Really? Congratulations, coach. "
Li Ge was also happy for his coach. When he joined SKT, his coach was still a young man in his twenties who had just retired. In the blink of an eye, he was going to have a family.
Looking at Li Ge's smiling face, Li Xu asked telepathically, "So, Li Ge, how much money do you need to prepare?"
The smile on Guapi's face gradually froze. "Of course, of course, you need to give a lot."
Jin Zhengxun waved his hand. "Alright, it's fine as long as you have the intention. You guys should win the championship first. I've already said in the interview that we'll get married after winning the championship. Don't let me down."
Li Xu suddenly had an idea. "If we lose, does that mean that you won't be able to get married?"
Everyone: "…"
The angle of this question was quite tricky.
