After watching the first two games, all the spectators were very satisfied. Although there were more mistakes in LPL games, the intense scenes were indeed very lively.
In the third game, both sides fought back and forth in the early stages, but IG suffered again in terms of vision. In the small-scale team battles, Kiana continuously cut into the back row, leading to the loss of Tai Lung. The situation once again leaned towards FPX.
In the first place, IG had chosen a lineup with a low fault tolerance of top lane Lucian and mid lane Jess, and they could not control the vision of the key positions. As soon as they fought, their formation was divided by Chiyana and Titan. It was not surprising that they suffered continuous losses in the middle.
Later on, FPX did not give IG a chance to mess up the battle. They controlled the situation on the field step by step and steadily won the game.
In the middle of this round, FPX's team performance could be said to be perfect. They had found the right opportunity and were not dragged into the rhythm they were used to by IG. Wave after wave of small-scale resource fights continued to accumulate advantages, showing the whole world that this team had its own unique operating style.
As a coach, Jin Zhengxun could not help but praise, "This FPX team is really good at playing as a whole. They are very disciplined."
Mata: "Compared to them, we are more stable in the beginning. The way they operate is quite different from ours.
In the early stages, FPX often cooperated with the jungler to grab the sides. They like to cooperate with the jungler to grab the sides in the early stages. In the first three games, there were scenes where the mid laner quickly moved to support the side lane before reaching level six. Even if they could not grab the sides, they would let the side lane teammates suffer. Their playing style is very good. "
Li Xu: "We are also very good at playing as a whole. Our discipline is not worse than theirs."
Li Ge glanced at Li Xu. "You are the one with the worst discipline."
You rushed to the front in a 1v5, and you were the first to send the water every time. What's wrong with saying that your discipline is the worst among the five of us?
The current barbecue stall was indeed very good at operating. Although the pace in the early stages was not necessarily as fast as PFX, the pressure was better than FPX's team. However, the premise was that Li Xu did not play any tricks.
Sometimes, it was clear that everyone had decided to give him the resources, but Li Xu could not help but be reckless when he saw an opportunity. Although he often achieved good results in the end, it was true that he always made his teammates and coaches off the field worried.
Li Xu pursed his lips and pretended not to hear Li Ge's complaint.
Clearly, I was the one who found the opportunity, but you couldn't catch up, so I had no choice but to fight one against five. When I was flushing the spring water, I made an agreement with you, but you turned around and sold me out, leaving me to die in the spring water alone.
Who was the one with the problem?
How dare you blame me? I can't be bothered with you.
After thinking about it, Li Xu picked up the cola beside him and took a sip.
Gurgle gurgle.
In this kind of weather, it felt so good to drink a flat cola.
Entering the match point of FPX, IG suffered because of their own recklessness in the early stages. The three of them invaded the jungle in the dark and were outnumbered by the opponent. At the same time, Angel's Blink was also used in this wave. When they went online, they were ambushed by the captain and killed by him because they did not use Blink.
They were at a disadvantage right from the start. IG dared to force their way to the top lane to catch the captain when all of their opponents had disappeared from the map. As a result, the four of them were caught by FPX and all four of them died on the top lane.
In this wave, any rational team would not have dared to rush over the tower when they found out that all of their opponents had disappeared from the map. However, IG did it. As a tightrope walker, they liked to make high-risk, high-reward decisions.
Even if they were thwarted in the first wave, IG did not adjust their thinking. If the first wave did not work, they would try again.
After less than two minutes, Ning Wang took the lead and brazenly rushed up the tower, but he was caught by FPX again. This time, IG was at a complete disadvantage in the early stages.
However, the strength of the IG team lay in their ability to seize opportunities. In the early stages of the game, when they were clearly at a disadvantage, they still managed to find an opportunity to win a team battle in the wild zone and take down the dragon. They really did turn the situation around.
After that, the two sides entered the battle royale mode again. Like the second round, IG slowly gained the upper hand with their rich experience.
Seeing that the two sides were about to enter the final round, IG's core attacker, Angel, was hit by Verus on the opponent's high ground and died. IG lost a big C and the team was defeated.
FPX took advantage of the situation and eliminated their opponent with a score of 3: 1 to enter the final round.
Throughout the whole game, FPX was obviously better than IG in terms of tactical execution and decision-making. IG's recklessness was full of mistakes in front of FPX's orderly rhythm.
IG actually had a lot of opportunities, but their aggressive style made it impossible for them to grasp the advantage and snowball like FPX.
This team was best at sit-ups. No matter how far behind they were, they gave people the feeling that they could make a comeback at any time. When they were in the lead, they always made people feel that they could give away the advantage at any time.
There was always a time when they could not get up from their sit-ups. Today, FPX used their experience to make IG die recklessly.
Teddy said, "Oh! These two teams were so lively. I didn't expect IG to lose. In the last wave, Captain and Wine Barrel did not have any big moves. I thought that IG would definitely win that wave, but Angel actually walked up and was hit by Verus's big move. "
"They played too carelessly. How could Angel rush to the front alone?"
Li Xu boasted shamelessly. "IG's top laner is 90% as aggressive as me, but not as steady as Xu Ge's 30%."
Mata said, "I can see that FPX has completely understood IG's playstyle. Their tactical execution is very strong. No wonder they are the number one seed in LPL. Their tactical arrangement is very targeted."
Li Xu said, "That's good too. What's the point of playing IG in the finals? It's more interesting to play against a new team in a competition. "
Li Ge glanced at Li Xu. "Didn't you say that we should be more modest and be careful of being defeated by G2 tomorrow? Why are we talking about our opponents in the finals now?"
"I was just saying. Did you take it seriously?"
Li Xu stood up and stretched. When he saw Choi Jung-yeon tidying up the bags of snacks that Guapi had thrown on the ground, he quickly helped her.
"Pack up, we'll send G2 away tomorrow."
… ….
On the 3rd of November, SKT ushered in the semi-finals against G2.
After noon in Madrid, the entire SKT team took the bus and rushed to the competition venue.
There was less than an hour before the start of the competition. The Palace of Vestal Aleglei was crowded with people.
Many European spectators were waiting to enter the venue in twos and threes.
As far as the eye could see, support items with G2's logo could be seen everywhere. SKT's red logo was drowned in them.
The scene in front of them seemed to be telling them:
This was the home ground of Europe, the home ground of the king of Europe, G2.
