The interview proceeded very quickly. Lian Zhuji stood beside Brother Li. "Next, it's time to interview contestant Faker."
After that, Continuous Caster put down the microphone. The entire stadium erupted in cheers.
"Faker, Faker, Faker • • •"
Waves of cheers rose and fell in the stadium.
A fan excitedly held up a large cardboard with Li Ge's face printed on it. On it were three iconic buildings of Paris' Eiffel Tower, Taipei 101 Skyscraper, and Seoul's Seoul Tower. On the back of the cardboard were written in Korean, Chinese, and English: "Faker, bring me around the world."
The meaning was self-evident. Apart from Seoul, the other two were the venues for the Season Championship and the Global Finals.
League of Legends was a team game, but Li Ge had deeply integrated his personal heroism into the team game. The League of Assassins no longer existed, but Faker's countless iconic scenes were still being played over and over again.
Continuous Caster: "Every time I interview Faker, even though I have the microphone, I have no way of taking the lead. Are you familiar with this feeling?"
Li Ge took the microphone. "Even though it's familiar, this feeling still makes me happy. I hope to be able to stand here next time."
Continuous Caster: "Faker, have you ever thought that you would win the championship with a 3: 0 sweep?"
"Of course, my results in the finals have always been good." Li Ge was very confident.
In fact, in terms of the League, Li Ge had led SKT to the finals a total of eight times. He had only lost to KZ once in the S7 Summer League. He had won all the other seven finals, and five of them had won the championship with a 3: 0 sweep.
Without SKT's outstanding results in the World Championship, Li Ge would have had to make way for all the other League of Legends.
Including their results in the World Championship, SKT had only lost two sets of best-of-five matches. They had lost to EDG in the MSI World Championship and to SSG in the World Championship.
As for LCK's dominance in League of Legends, it was mostly due to SKT's hard work.
Continuous Caster: "What percentage of contribution do you think you have made to SKT's championship?"
"Probably more than a normal person," Li Ge's answer made Lian Zhuji laugh. He didn't know what Li Ge meant by normal.
Continuous Casting Machine: "After you make more contributions, who is the one who makes less contributions in the team?"
Li Ge glanced at Li Xu. "Before the match, Li Xu told me that he would never be killed by a single player. However, even with such a huge advantage in the third match, he was still killed by Sword. So, let's pick Li Xu."
Li Xu felt a little wronged. Why are you dragging me into this? Although I did say those words, can a man's words be trusted?
"Contestant Li Xu said that if he won the more important championship, he would cry on stage. What about you, Contestant Faker?"
Li Ge thought for a while. "I don't think I'll cry, but I'll give everyone a surprise on stage."
Li Xu wanted to laugh. The last time Li Ge said that he would give the fans a surprise on stage was during S5. However, when he was on stage, Li Ge did a forward roll.
Back then, he was still young. Would Li Ge's waist be able to support another roll?
Imagine Li Ge doing a mid-roll on stage. Crack! Tsk tsk! That would be a beautiful scene.
After SKT's interview, the official award ceremony began.
First was the award ceremony for the best player of the spring competition, which was also the MVP award ceremony. Lee Jiu won the award and received 5 million won.
Continuous Casting Machine could not help but ask, "Contestant Li Xu, I know that you often win MVPs in competitions. How do you feel about winning the MVP award in the finals?"
Li Xu blurted out, "In the past, Miss Minna was the one who interviewed me when I won the MVP award. I'm not used to it this time."
Continuous Casting Machine was speechless. 'You're blaming me?'
"Do you think you'd be more used to it if Miss Kim Minna was the one interviewing you? She's backstage, we can invite her up, "Continuous Casting Machine joked.
Li Xu quickly waved his hands. "No, no, no. What I mean is that I've always won the MVP award in a single match. This kind of important MVP award is very novel. It's different from before."
Continuous Casting Machine did not waste any more time. After the short interview, it was time for the first runner-up award ceremony. Of course, there was no interview segment. Griffin's team members did not look relaxed. They were probably not in the mood to be interviewed.
The live audience members left the venue one after another. Of course, most of them were Griffin's supporters and neutral fans.
After that, it was time for the official award ceremony. The entire SKT team, who had changed into white championship shirts, stepped onto the podium.
Continuous Casting Machine first thanked his sponsor for his support. The prize money for the LCK competition was awarded by Korea's only state-owned bank, Woori Bank. Woori Bank's representative passed a signboard with the words "Champion's prize money of 100 million won" to Li Ge, who was in the middle.
Li Ge passed the signboard to Effort, who was beside him. The little support assistant held the signboard and looked at the camera shyly, as if the signboard was very hot.
Once again, the golden ribbons fluttered in the wind. All the members of SKT left behind a group photo. The LCK competition officially came to an end.

"Siang He, Li Xu, over here."
Li Xu and Li Ge walked to the south gate of the Silkworm Sports Complex and saw Zhao Enjing waving from afar. Lin Yuqing stood quietly beside her.
"Congratulations to all of you, champions." Zhao Enjing smiled and congratulated them. She placed the red paper crown with the words "T1 WIN" on Li Ge's head.
"Thank you."
Li Ge happily touched the paper crown on his head. At that moment, he felt like he had the whole world.
"Not bad." Lin Yuqing looked at Li Xu. Li Xu enjoyed the compliment, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Eh? Where are Bao'er and Sister Jin-hee? "Li Xu clearly remembered seeing them together.
"Sister Jin-hee took the little girl and left first. She said that Bao'er's mother is back, but the little girl is very unhappy." Zhao Enjing explained, slightly annoyed. "That little girl is quite cute, but she doesn't know how to talk."
Li Xu smiled. He could imagine Bao'er throwing a tantrum with her hands behind her back. Every time she was unhappy, she would put her hands behind her back, pout, and kick the ground with her short legs.
"Hey! How did you get to know Sister Jin-hee? She's so pretty. Do you have any impure thoughts about Sister Jin-hee? "Zhao Enjing looked at Li Xu as if he was being dishonest.
Li Jiu glanced at her. "She's definitely purer than you think."
Zhao Enjing snorted twice and did not say anything.
Li Xu looked at Lin Yuqing. "Kim Jin-hee is the owner of the cafe I brought you to last time. I wanted to introduce her to you last time."
"Yes, she's an easy person to get along with."
