December 29th, 4 pm local time in Korea. There was still an hour before the start of the second round of the Kesap Cup.
In the previous day's semi-finals, GEN · G defeated KT 3: 1 and entered the finals of the Kespa Cup.
Lolpark was already crowded with people. SKT's fans occupied most of the space in the stadium, while GRF's fans were much fewer.
In the preparation room, Li Xu was lying on a chair with a heat pack in his arms. He closed his eyes and rested comfortably. Ever since he learned this position from MATA, he had completely turned into a salted fish.
Teddy was playing cards alone to pass the time. Clid was still looking at his phone with a wretched smile on his face.
"Don't forget about that!" Li Ge poked Li Xu.
"I know, I know, I'll remember." Li Xu rolled his eyes. 'You've been reminding me every day for the past two days. I can't forget even if I wanted to.'
"What's the matter?" MATA, who was also lying on her back, asked. She was too lazy to open her eyes.
"Nothing, nothing." Li Ge laughed and turned around to play his game. He glanced at Li Xu from time to time, afraid that Li Xu would forget.
"Sigh! He's a bastard! "Li Xu turned around and mumbled softly.
Brother Li, tell me, what are you after?
It's been a few years, and you haven't even asked for my number?
According to Li Xu, Li Ge was like the b * tch Zeng in iPartment. His heart was in turmoil, but he couldn't say it out loud. He had to passively wait for the other party to speak first.
Of course, what he waited for might not be a confession.
What he waited for might be a wedding invitation.
At first, Li Xu thought that it was just the media's hype and the fans' random pairing. It turned out that Li Ge really liked Eunjeong.
Last night, Li Xu even went online to check. Previously, there was a picture of Zhao Enjing performing a classical dance on the Internet, which was rumored to be a wedding picture. A lot of people felt sorry for Li Ge on the Internet.
Li Xu clicked his tongue in wonder. These netizens were really f * * king geniuses. The doggerel they came up with was both rhyming and meaningful. They had completely portrayed the image of a desolate spare tire who was bitterly in love with a goddess.
So what if you achieve great brilliance on this stage? So what if he entered the Hall of Fame?
Isn't that the case? Ha! Ha! Ha!
Fortunately, Li Ge didn't understand Chinese and didn't understand the meaning of those jokes.
Li Xu also wanted to translate these jokes for Li Ge. He was very curious about Li Ge's reaction, but when he thought about the unpredictable consequences, he decisively gave up.

Today's Kespa Cup semifinals were also hosted by Park Ji-hwan and Kim Ji-hyun.
Park Ji-hwan: "This is the first clash of the season between two teams that are currently regarded as the most competitive LCK teams in the S9 season. Will it be the rise of the Youth Guards? Or will it be the return of the kings of SKT? Let's wait and see! "
The members of GEN G, who were sitting together and watching the live broadcast of the match, cursed in their hearts.
F * * k, can't you show us some respect? We're already in the finals, okay? These two teams are only in the top four. Do you think we're just weaklings? How much worse is Three Star Dynasty compared to SKT? Your tone is as if you're treating GEN G as trash. Are you implying that whoever enters the finals will be the champion?
Kim Ji-hyun: "In the previous round, SKT turned the tables and defeated the new LCK team, DWG. GRF easily swept the second seed of LCK last season, AFS. Today's match will be very exciting. Everyone knows that SKT wants to be the champion, but GRF probably also wants to enter the finals. After all, they still have to take revenge on GEN G."
Last season, because Griffin was promoted to LCK in the summer season, they did not have any points in the spring season. In the summer season finals, they had to defeat KT and become the champion in order to ensure that they would appear on the international stage.
However, GRF lost to KT 2: 3 in the finals. Not only did GRF miss out on the championship title, but they also had to participate in the bubble match.
Everyone understood the bubble match.
GEN G was not called the king of bubble matches for no reason. Once they entered the bubble match, GEN G, a three-star team, immediately turned into a bubble match monster.
No matter who you are, no matter how you beat me in the Pro League, I'll make sure you know what you're doing in the bubble match.
Last year, GEN G met SKT led by Li Ge in the first round of the bubble match. When the score was 2: 2, at the crucial moment, Black Emperor made a move. Jungler Troll One Pillar directly knocked Li Ge out of the S8 World Championship.
In the second round, GEN G sent the arrogant youngsters of GRF home with a score of 3: 2.
In the end, GRF beat KZ with a score of 3: 0. They completed the feat of one versus three and clinched the last spot in the S Tournament.
Of course, the defending champions performed badly in the S8 group stage and were directly eliminated.
Therefore, the GRF was now full of energy to enter the finals and take revenge on GEN G.
Hao Kai and Zhi Huan were the commentators of the Douyu live streaming channel for the match.
Hao Kai: "This match is full of highlights. First, will Li Xu, who performed perfectly in the previous match, be able to continue to be the starter?"
Zhi Huan: "I think Li Xu's debut is not a problem. With his performance in the previous match, there's no reason for him to continue to be a substitute."
Hao Kai continued, "Another thing is, in the first match against DWG, SKT's lack of teamwork was very obvious. I don't know if they'll be able to adjust that in this match. After all, GRF's biggest advantage is that not only are their individual abilities outstanding, but their teamwork is also quite good."
Zhi Huan: "The coach should have a plan, but we still have to wait for the match to start before we can see how the players are doing."
Hao Kai: "The third question is, if Li Xu is the starter, will he be able to suppress Sword?"
Zhi Huan: "What else is there to say? It can be said that Griffin's biggest weakness is their top laner. From the previous matches, it can be seen that GRF will basically choose a hero for the top laner to resist pressure and wait for Tarzan to set the pace. There's no doubt that the core of this team is Tarzan, so it will be very difficult for Clid to suppress Tarzan's pace. Let's not talk about the duo lane, it's not easy to gain a big advantage there. Li Ge will probably still try to snatch Ice Maiden, so if Li Xu is the starter, the coach will definitely ask him to find a way to establish an advantage in the top lane. "
"Li Ge will probably still try to snatch Ice Maiden, hehe! Teacher Zhi Huan hit the nail on the head. "
"I have to say, the truth is really hurtful. If Lee Sang-hyok tries to snatch Ice Maiden again, I'll curse him to eat instant noodles without seasoning."
"The commenter above is so evil. Don't you know how much Koreans love instant noodles? “
It has to be said that Zhi Huan's analysis was very accurate.
Li Xu received instructions from his coach, Kim Jong Un, after he finished his NEET.
Kim Jong Un's original words were, "In today's match, Clid's tempo is very likely to be suppressed. You must gain an advantage in the lane. GRF's weakness is in the top lane, so you must defeat Sword and gain an advantage."
Li Xu clicked his tongue and apologized to Sword in his heart.
'I'm sorry, big brother.
The coach told me to defeat you! '
