Chapter 260 IGvsRNG

Competition day will soon come to April 21st.

The semi-finals went on as scheduled.

Prior to this, the spring splits of other divisions had ended. KZ won the spring split of the LCK. The champions of the European and North American divisions were FNC and TL respectively.

Now only the competition in the LPL division has not ended. According to MSI rules, only the division champion is eligible to participate in the centralized invitational tournament. The strength of the LPL division is obvious to all. Teams promoted from other divisions are also paying attention to the LPL competition.

Looking forward to their MSI opponents.

The first thing to be played was the Eastern Conference semifinals, IG faced off against RNG.

The game hasn't started yet, but there are many viewers waiting in the live broadcast room, and the barrage is constantly scrolling.

Because EDG won the championship last year, the League of Legends competition became popular and attracted a lot of attention to the game, which increased the attention of the Spring Split a lot.

Just like before, before the game even started, everyone in EDG gathered in the conference room, watching and analyzing today's game, and studying the opponents in the finals in advance.

Whether it is RNG or IG, EDG has played training matches with them before today, and has a clear understanding of the strength of the two teams.

At present, people on the Internet believe that IG has a greater chance of winning in the semi-finals than RNG. Even IG’s official blog specially posted EDG before the game:

See you in the finals!

The momentum is high, but in fact, from the perspective of EDG players, the strength of the two teams is actually not much different.

Before the start of the playoffs, if someone asked who is stronger between IG and RNG, everyone except Chen Mo would probably answer that whether RNG can meet IG is a question.

But after looking at the two playoff games, plus the usual training matches, before the game started, no one really dared to say who had a greater chance of winning.

"RNG or IG, who do you want to fight more?"

During the BP competition, Nofe suddenly asked.

Everyone started thinking about it.

"If you ask me, I prefer to play on IG."

iboy spoke first.

Although he didn't say the reason, everyone knew it.

It’s not just that Uzi is very strong in the lane, the more reason is that RNG likes to play around the bottom lane. Facing a team like RNG that protects the ADC, the pressure on the bottom lane will be very high.

"Obviously RNG is better!"

"IG is better to fight!"

…

Everyone was talking a lot.

The BP for the first game was quickly released. RNG was on the blue side, Letme took out Ornn’s best laner, Mala Xiangguo chose the troll jungler, Xiaohu chose the vampire in the middle, and Kai’Sa and Braum were in the bottom lane.

The combination.

Kai'Sa was a hero released in March, but the game was not updated to its version 8.5 until this time. In Chen Mo's view, the reason why RNG was able to counterattack and win the spring championship as a dark horse in history is because of this hero's success.

Going online has a lot to do with it.

This hero is very suitable for RNG's system. Although the combat power is lacking in the early stage, the AOE damage of the Q skill makes it easy to clear the line in the early stage. In the later stage, the damage explodes, and he has a good life-saving ability, which is very suitable for Uzi.

RNG's lineup is very strong, but IG's side is not bad either.

Dannar is on top, Barrel is in the jungle, Rockbird is in the mid lane, Varus and Tahm Kench are on the bottom lane.

After the lineup is determined, the game starts quickly.

The system chosen by both teams is relatively stable. Logically speaking, the early stage should focus on development. However, not long after the game started, RNG started to cause trouble.

On the blue side, Malaxiangguo chose to open red, but after killing the red buff, he did not continue to farm, but walked directly towards the bottom lane.

Caught at the second level!

Seeing the troll's movements, the eyes of everyone in EDG suddenly lit up.

If Braum can equip his passive and use the troll's E skill to slow down, he has a chance to achieve a killing effect.

The most important thing is that IG did not go to the RNG jungle area to lay out their vision at the beginning. In other words, the spicy hot pot was not discovered at this time.

Due to the combination of many factors, it is a foregone conclusion that IG will be opened up in the bottom lane.

Seeing that the jungler was in position, Xiao Ming was very decisive and directly handed over the flash. After closing the distance, he released the Q skill at Varus.

Jackeylove did not move to twist away [Winter's Bite], and the deceleration effect was activated. Uzi quickly controlled Kashara at close range and attacked Varus with a basic attack.

Not only that, the figure of the troll also appeared in the field of vision.

Baolan next to him hurriedly handed over his W skill, but Tam was also attacked by Bloom and became passive. Spicy Hotpot delayed in handing out his E skill and just controlled the troll to move forward.

Coming out of Tamu's belly, IG's bottom lane combination both flashed.

However, as soon as Varus moved out, the spicy pot flashed in time to close the distance, and released the E skill to block its position.

Uzi and Xiao Ming quickly stepped forward to keep up with the damage. Together, they quickly took away Varus' remaining health.

RNG took the lead to open up the situation, and it was Uzi's Kai'Sa who got the kill.

The RNG fans at the scene immediately cheered, but they were not happy for long before the situation on the court changed again.

Game time is 9 minutes.

Rookie wandered to the bottom lane after clearing the lane, and after getting close, released his ultimate move directly towards the bottom lane.

At the same time, King Ning also came to the bottom lane.

Four packs of two.

Although Kai'Sa has the advantage at this time, it is not enough to support Uzi at this time to fight more with less, not to mention that King Ning's wine barrel still has a flash.

E flash stuns Kai'Sa, the others are keeping up with the damage, and Uzi doesn't even have a chance to hand in skills.

As for Braum next to him, when the ADC died, he was also quickly killed by the IG team.

Two people in the bottom lane died suddenly. This wave of RNG was really a bit hurt.

But it's not over yet.

After killing both Kai'Sa and Kai'Sa, IG quickly pushed forward. They wanted to take the opportunity to directly destroy the bottom defense tower.

For RNG, giving up the defense tower is the best choice.

But just when IG brought their troops into the defense tower, Xiaohu actually handed over TP to the bottom tower.

He wanted to defend the tower by force.

Although the vampire skills are still there, you must know that you are facing four people at this time.

Everyone at IG showed no mercy at all and decisively jumped over the tower to kill.

With everyone's combined efforts, the vampire died suddenly, and the bottom defense tower was quickly destroyed by Varus and others.

After this wave, IG reversed its disadvantage, but under RNG's strong resistance, the advantage did not expand.

In the following time, the battle situation was very tense. Both sides found many opportunities, but also made many mistakes.

When the game reached 28 minutes, IG finally couldn't help but take the lead in attacking the Baron.

As the baron's blood volume dropped rapidly, everyone in the RNG came to support in time, and Spicy Hotpot took the lead in releasing the E skill to slow down the crowd.

Just when everyone in IG focused their attention on the troll, Xiaohu flashed directly from the side, took the ultimate move first, then released the E skill, and connected it with the W skill to avoid damage.

The entrance of the vampire did not achieve the instant effect, but it did amazing AOE damage.

Uzi entered the field to compensate for the damage, and along with Kai'Sa's explosive damage, the team battle quickly lost its suspense.

Kai'Sa successfully scored three kills, and only jungler Wine Barrel and mid laner Rock Bird were left on IG's side.

At this time, the troops in the middle were already pushing forward. In the blink of an eye, everyone in RNG quickly made a decision——

Don't fight the big dragon. Just go for it!

With the army line, everyone pushed towards the middle. Although a few people were in poor condition, they at least had an advantage in terms of numbers.

However, just as the military line entered the highland tower, a surprising scene appeared for the two of them.

The figure of the wine barrel appeared in the middle and blocked the incoming troop line. Rookie quickly released his skills to clear the troop line under the defense tower.

It turned out that after losing the team battle, King Ning did not return to the city to replenish his health, but instead hunkered down in the grass.

The action of cutting off the line of troops with the wine barrel successfully continued the game. Not only that, due to the poor condition of the RNG players, the IG players quickly rushed towards the Dalong Pit after being resurrected.

Taking advantage of the time when everyone from RNG returned to the city to replenish their status before going online, a few people from IG successfully rushed the baron.

The situation became confusing again.

"Damn, that's wonderful!"

In the conference room, the junior student said with emotion.

This game was full of ups and downs and is still full of suspense to this day. Both teams showed full resilience. Just as they thought before the game, the gap in strength is very small.

Return to the playing field.
