In the first round, both teams had chosen a mediocre line-up. C9's jungler, Svenskeren, was at a disadvantage in every lane.
C9's top laner, Licorice, was killed three times by Li Xu in the top lane. After the mid laner, Jensen, left the team, the new mid laner, Nisqy, was beaten to a pulp by Li Ge in the mid lane. Nisqy's Sindera was in danger of being killed by Li Ge and Akali the moment he appeared.
The bottom lane, on the other hand, was quite good. Teddy's specialty was not that he was strong in lane battles. The crossdresser, Sneaky, and the support, Zeyzal, were quite good in lane battles as well.
From the mid-game onwards, C9 was almost at the mercy of SKT. Due to the difference in equipment, C9 lost as long as they dared to attack. They could not defend, and their base was destroyed very quickly.
"C9's skill level is quite average. How did they get into the top eight of the S Tournament last year?" Li Xu asked. The opponent's skill level was quite average. Other than the bottom lane, which was more stable, the middle and top lanes were all destroyed by him and Li Ge. Their jungler had no rhythm as well.
Li Ge was very serious. "Don't underestimate any opponent."
Teddy said regretfully, "Their AD is not bad, but I'm more concerned about whether he has a new picture of himself in female clothing. Too bad my English is not good enough. "
Clid laughed. "I'd like to see it too. He looks better in female clothing than his girlfriend."
Li Xu: "What are you guys paying attention to? But I'm interested too. Let me ask. "
In the second round, during the BP.
Li Xu typed in English on the screen. "Sneaky, have you made any new female clothing designs recently?"
Sneaky quickly replied on the public screen. "I've taken the picture and it's going to be announced soon. Are you interested in female clothing too?"
Li Xu quickly denied. "Are you kidding me? It's the AD in our team who is interested. I'm not interested at all. "
Li Xu glanced at Teddy. Fortunately, Teddy's English was not good enough, so Li Xu could not understand what he was saying.
Sneaky said regretfully, "That's a pity. You'd definitely look good in female clothing. The last SKT AD player even cross-dressed with me. Don't you want to consider it?"
During last year's All Star Competition, SKT's results were too bad. Other than Faker, almost all the other players could not participate in the All Star Competition.
In order to participate in the All-Star Match, Bang shamelessly expressed that he wanted to cosplay as Xialuo with Sneaky. Of course, many Korean netizens were interested and voted to send Bang to the All-Star Match.
Because Luo was a man, both of them wanted to wear female clothing. Thus, everyone saw the two Xia's solo match in the All-Star Match.
Although Sneaky lost to Bang in the solo match, his cosplay skills were clearly superior to Bang's.
Bang was not bad looking, but he was slightly chubby and had to cosplay as Xialuo. Naturally, he was at a disadvantage in front of Sneaky's seller.
Li Xu sternly rejected Sneaky's encouragement. "Cross-dressing heretic, don't think you can lead me astray. Let's not talk nonsense and prepare for the match."
Coach Kim Jong Un was still focused on studying BP when he saw the two's conversation on the screen. "You guys better behave."
Then, another line of words appeared on the screen.
Sneaky: "Our coach Reapered asked Coach Kim Jong Un if you're interested in cross-dressing. He can help to share it on Twitter. You'll definitely be popular. "
Li Xu looked at Kim Jong Un carefully. "Coach, how should I reply?"
"What reply? Just ignore him. "
Speaking of which, Coach Reapered's relationship with SKT was quite deep. As the top laner of the first OGN Pro League, in October 2012, Reapered and four teammates established the amateur team EatSleepGame. Reapered was both the top laner and the team leader.
After leading the team into IEEM7 Cologne, EatSleepGame received SKT's sponsorship and changed its name to SKTelecom T1.
That's right, that was the origin of SKT Club. Reapered had also led his team to defeat MYM at IEEM7 Cologne and then defeated FNC. That was SKT Club's first ever LOL Champion in history.
After that, Reapered left SKT and established the second generation of EatSleepGame, changing its style to jungler and commander. However, with JinAir's sponsorship, they changed their name to JinAir Greenwings Falcons, which was the origin of Team JAG.
One had to admit that Reapered was indeed a legend. Out of the ten teams in LCK today, two of them were related to him. After his retirement, he formed the coaching team of EDG with Abu, which lasted until he started coaching C9 in 2016.
Perhaps it was because C9 had a tradition of cross-dressing, but Reapered had once posted a cross-dressing photo of the former C9 top laner, Impact, on Twitter. It was the S3 season SKT's top laner, Damu.
C9's members had also hinted that Coach Reapered also had cross-dressing photos, but they did not dare to post them because of their coach's authority.
In the second match, Li Xu finally understood why this team had made it into the top four of the international tournament last year.
After the experience of the first match, C9 chose to play Gário in the middle lane to fight against Li Ge's Ice Lady, while they chose to play Kenan in the top lane.
The opposing team chose Kenan, but they played very wretchedly. They did not care if they could suppress Li Xu's Nuke, so both sides developed peacefully.
On the other hand, the jungler Svenskeren, who did not have any rhythm in the previous match, Princes was frantically finding rhythm in this match.
Princes had reached level 6, so he cooperated with Kenan in the top lane to fight against Li Xu. Although Clid was smart enough to take down Li Xu's Nuke in an instant, Blind Monk was not able to escape either.
After gaining an advantage in the top lane, Princes immediately turned to the middle lane and cooperated with Gário to kill Li Ge's Ice Lady.
Then, Princes turned to the bottom lane and started attacking the bottom lane again.
In the entire match, Princes seemed to have gained something from every move he made. It was as if he was a completely different person from the first match. Li Xu even suspected that the opposing team had hired a leveler.
Furthermore, the difference between C9 and LCK was that they would not slow down after gaining an advantage.
Once they gained an advantage, they would continue to fight, not giving SKT a chance to slow down and develop. Even if Li Xu was hiding under the tower, the opposing team would still charge towards the tower with Gário's support.
LCK, on the other hand, was different. Many teams in LCK were used to establishing an advantage early on, then they would take the initiative to slow down the pace of the battle. They would begin to obtain map resources to consolidate their advantage. SKT was no exception. Although this method seemed stable, it actually gave their opponents a chance to catch their breath.
In the end, C9's advantage grew bigger and bigger. It was as if Li Xu and Licorice had swapped numbers. The second match ended with SKT's loss.
In the third match, SKT made some adjustments and directly snatched Princes from the first floor. However, this Princes was not used by Clid, and instead, he was handed over to Li Xu.
Although C9 once again chose Kenan as the top lane, Li Xu's Princes cooperated with Clid's Blind Monk to catch Kenan and kill him. Kenan, who did not have the ability to teleport, died before he could even teleport.
In this match, SKT did not face much resistance and won with the coordination of the top, middle, and jungle.
