The current score was 21 to 2. Li Xu's stats were 1305.
Kim Ji-hyun: "SKT has leveled the score with a crushing victory. Both teams are about to enter the final match. I have to say, Li Xu's performance in this match really shocked me. It's hard to imagine that SKT fans would be dissatisfied with such a player."
Park Ji-hyun: "I've been there for all three matches Li Xu has played this season. I have to say, this is a player who always brings you surprises. Three matches, three heroes, and the same steady performance. I'm looking forward to Li Xu's next hero choice."
Li Xu took off his headphones. He was not used to the cheers around him. Why wasn't anyone booing him this time?
He turned around and saw the two male fans who had provoked him earlier. They were slumped in their seats, cheering SKT on weakly. He did not know if they were happy or sad.
Li Xu smiled. If you guys are unhappy, I'll be happy.
In the preparation room, KHAN looked at Li Xu with a complicated expression. He did not say anything.
Kim Ji-hyun was commenting on the performances of the players in the previous match.
"Keep up the same performance in the next match. However, you have to reduce unnecessary mistakes. You have to pay attention to low-level mistakes like Clid."
Clid was a little embarrassed. If not for Li Xu's flying Sven, Little Dragon would have exploded.
"Alright, everyone, keep your spirits up. Let's win this match in one go." Kim Ji-hyun clapped his hands and led the way out of the preparation room.
Li Xu was still a little dazed when he returned to his seat. This was the first time he had played two matches in a row.
Kim Ji-hyun: "Coach Kim Ji-hyun did not make any changes to his team members. It looks like he was very satisfied with SKT's performance in the previous match. Li Xu will play again. I wonder what hero he will use in this match?"
Park Ji-hyun: "To be honest, other than a small mistake in the previous match, SKT's suppression in the lane, overall rhythm, and performance in the team battle were not inferior to SKT's at their peak. What reason is there to be dissatisfied with?"
BP started. This time, SKT was on the blue side. BAN first, DWG was on the red side.
SKT immediately banned the Lamia. In the current version of the game, there was no chance for this hero to appear.
DWG directly banned Li Xu's god-like Sven.
Kim Ji-hyun: "Wow! DWG directly banned Li Xu's Sven. It seems that DWG is not confident in dealing with the previous Sven. "
Ze Yuan: "DWG is fake. In this version, most teams wouldn't ABN Swain first. Looks like they're scared of Li Xu. But you said BAN Swain at the start of the red square. What's the BAN after that? What about Li Xu's Urgot and Sword Demon? Where's Li Ge's Ice Girl? There aren't enough BAN slots! "
SKT's second BAN fell to Luo Kai. This hero was too fast. Luo Kai's team had moved to the center position a few times, but the teammates behind him could not keep up with the damage output.
DWG's second BAN continued to target Li Xu. Urgot was sent to the BAN position.
Kim Ji-hyun: "DWG consecutively banned Li Xu's two heroes, but there's still a Sword Demon outside. Is DWG going to target Li Xu in the first three rounds? This is rare in a competition! "
SKT's third BAN went to Dao Mei. This was a hero that the opponent was very good at both top and middle.
When it was time for DWG's third BAN, the live broadcast director gave Li Jiu a close-up. Li Jiu was bored out of his mind, resting his chin on his right hand. His eyes were empty, and he looked like he was lethargic.
There was an uproar in the stadium. As expected, DWG's third BAN went to Li Xu. Sword Demon was sent to the last BAN position in the first round.
Kim Ji-hyun: "As expected, DWG gave Li Xu three straight BANS. Looks like Li Xu gave DWG too much pressure last round."
Ze Yuan: "Li Xu got to enjoy Faker's treatment. This is too rare. Li Xu's three heroes were all banned in the first round. This is too rare. However, the audience is probably not happy. Li Ge's Ice Girl has been sent out again."
As expected, SKT snatched Ice Girl Lisandro without saying anything.
"DWG is an idiot. Not only did they ban Li Xu's three aces, they also sent out the terrifying Ice Girl."
"Looking at DWG's BAN, I knew that Li Bingbing was going to be on the stage. As expected, hehe!"
"I'm used to seeing Frost Bloom. My heart doesn't waver."
DWG snatched Qing Gang Yin and Gário. Qing Gang Yin and Gário's entrance would make the opponent's team fight very difficult.
Clid chose Blind Monk. This was his signature hero. Together with Ice Girl, their early game fighting ability was very strong.
Faker helped MATA choose Tauren. This was MATA's signature hero. Not only could he start a team fight, but he could also counterattack. His protection was also good. He was a very good support hero.
DWG chose Morgana. Both sides started the second round of BP.
Kim Ji-hyun: "SKT still has a top laner and an AD in the first round. DWG won't target Li Xu again, right?"
Park Ji-hwan: "They should target Teddy. There's no reason to ban the top laner. Li Xu's other heroes have not been on the stage. You can't ban all the top laners, right?"
DWG's red team banned the first round.
As expected, in this round, DWG targeted Teddy's hero pool. They even banned Izreal and Kesha. SKT also banned Sivir and Ryze.
DWG chose top laner Thane.
Ze Yuan: "DWG's intention of choosing top laner Thane is very obvious. They want to use a single core lineup. The ADC that has not been chosen yet is the core. However, this version has proven countless times that it's not suitable to protect one of the four!"
Shu Yi: "There aren't many AD players left who are suitable for protecting one of the four. Kesha has been banned. What about Vayne? SKT might have guessed DWG's intention and might try to steal Vayne. Then, do Blabbermouth and Ratty have a chance to play? "
SKT made the last two choices, ADC Xia and top laner Thane. They did not steal Vayne.
As expected, DWG chose Vayne as their last ADC. They were going to implement a four to one strategy.
Both sides had chosen their lineups.
Blue side SKT:
Top Laner: KING (Hand of Noxus, Teleus)
Jungler: Clid (Blind Monk, Li Qing)
Mid Laner: FAKER (Frost Witch, Lissandra)
ADC: Teddy (Niyu, Xia)
Assistant: MATA (Tauren Chief, Alista)
Red side DWG:
Top Laner: Nuguri (Undead God of War, Cheyenne)
Jungler: Punch (Qing Gang Ying, Camille)
Mid Laner: ShowMaker (Colossus of Justice, Gário)
ADC: Nuclear (Night Hunter, Vayne)
Assistant: Hoit (Fallen Angel, Morgana)
Kim Ji-hyun: "Li Xu has chosen a very rare Hand of Noxus in this version. This is another hero that Li Xu has chosen. I'm looking forward to his performance."
… ….
Ze Yuan: "Li Xu's choice is very smart and targeted. He brought out the Nuke, who rarely appears in the top laner in this version of the game. His intentions are clear! He wants to gain the upper hand! "
Shu Yi: "This top laner Cheyenne will definitely be suppressed by the Hand of Noxus. Let's see if Nuguri can withstand the pressure."
"Hand of Noxus against Cheyenne. Tsk tsk, let's see if the jungler daddy can help."
"Li Xu said that no matter what you ban, it's useless. I'm going to smash your head today!"
"No matter what you ban, I'm going to smash your top laner. 23333."
