Chapter 88 What the hell?! How come winning looks like losing?! [Seeking first subscriptions and monthly votes!]
After the match between Samsung and T1 ended, the matches between RNG and FPX also began.
Despite it being a best-of-one match, RNG, who couldn't even beat FPX in the league, is unlikely to suddenly unleash their full potential here.
After seeing RNG lose the game again, Lee Sang-hyeok let out a deep sigh.
Because RNG suffered two consecutive losses, while the other two teams each had one win and one loss.
In other words, barring any unforeseen circumstances, T1 will only be able to play one match against RNG.
Unless T1 throws the game and loses to RNG —
But for Lee Sang-hyeok, that was definitely impossible.
He admired Xiao Hu and thought he was an interesting opponent, so he would definitely not hold back and would definitely go all out to beat him!
Not to mention————
Even if RNG throws the game, they might not win!
Although it can only be one match, it is acceptable for Lee Sang-hyeok.
One game at a time!!!
It's better than RNG being eliminated in another group and not getting a chance to face them in the next match!
While thinking this to himself, Lee Sang-hyeok quickly sat down in his seat.
He couldn't wait to enjoy Little Tiger.
"Sungbin hyung, what happened? Why is Sanghyeok hyung so happy? This is only the second time I've seen Sanghyeok hyung this happy recently." Support Lee Sangho couldn't help but ask, seeing Lee Sanghyeok so energetic.
Lee Doo-hwan, who was sitting in a chair listening to Lee Sang-ho's mutterings, casually asked about it.
"When was the first time?"
"Dou-hwan hyung, the first time was when Sang-hyeok hyung picked you up at the airport."
Upon hearing the question, Lee Sang-ho immediately bowed to Lee Doo-hwan, who was sitting in a chair, and answered respectfully.
"Is that so?" Lee Doo-hwan smiled.
But the next second, his expression changed instantly!
"The competition is about to start, so hurry up and sit down!"
"Sang-ho, are you planning to have me use a baseball bat to help you sit down?"
Lee Sang-ho: "————"
Is this even human?
Seeing Lee Doo-hwan's sudden change in expression, he didn't dare to utter a word and quickly returned to his seat.
Fortunately, he has gotten somewhat used to Lee Doo-hwan's changing attitude over this period of time, otherwise he would have been driven insane.
Once the five people were ready, the competition began!
"Welcome everyone to the MSC China-Korea Showdown Group A match between T1 and RNG. I'm your commentator, Guan Zeyuan!"
"I am Miller."
"Hi everyone, I'm Rita~"
After a brief self-introduction as per procedure, Guan Zeyuan got straight to the point.
"To be honest, the situation for RNG right now is not very optimistic!"
They are currently down 0-2, and if they can't win this match, they may be eliminated!
If we can beat T1, there might still be a tiny, tiny chance.
"Anyway, having a chance is always better than having none, so I hope they can do their best."
At this moment, Miller no longer displayed the same attitude that T1 had shown when facing FPX.
Clearly, even after winning two consecutive LPL S-series championships, he no longer takes T1 seriously, and he doesn't have high hopes for RNG at this time!
As the commentators spoke, both sides began the drafting and selection process.
In terms of player selection, T1 opted for a strong early-to-mid-game lineup that focused on tempo, while RNG chose a late-game lineup that emphasized scaling and protecting their bot lane AD carry, Galakrond.
Looking at the lineup RNG selected, many fans who still had unrealistic fantasies about RNG were suddenly plunged into despair.
【What the hell is this time of day? Still playing the four-protect-one strategy?!】
[Is this a 4-protect-1 strategy for mid-lane Ryze?]
If we don't have a four-protect-one AD carry strategy, are we supposed to trust that useless Xiaohu?!
[I think RNG was so scared of their opponent that they were practically paralyzed with fear, as if their AD carry was some kind of superhuman!]
[I thought the bathing dog and Little Tiger had the same honor, so how dare that dog, Silin, bark like that!]
[Unbelievable! Even Xiaohu has a filial son now? If it weren't for Xiaohu, Xiaohu wouldn't even be able to win the league championship, let alone NSI!]
[Just a casual observer, but honestly, the puppy really elevated Xiaohu to a level that didn't belong to him!]
The pre-match verbal battles had already begun in the live stream before the match even started.
When the lineups were finalized and the two teams entered the game, some sharp-eyed viewers in the live stream noticed some very different things.
What's going on? Why is the melon rind laughing?!
-
Is that so strange? It would be strange not to laugh when you encounter a consistently devoted and filial son on the field!
[Stop the unfair criticism! Back in the day, my Tiger General actually solo-killed Flycoy's Azir with LeBlanc at MSI!]
Once inside the game, Lee Sang-hyeok chuckled and spoke up.
"Douhuan, just help out on the top and bottom lanes this time, don't worry about me."
"Why?" Lee Doo-hwan asked, puzzled.
"Because I want to have the enemy mid laner all to myself!"
Lee Doo-hwan: "————"
Since Lee Sang-hyeok didn't need him, Lee Doo-hwan naturally focused all his energy on the bottom lane.
As for the top lane, just let Kim Jang-dong and RNG's current top laner Langx play against each other.
While Galakrond, RNG's bot laner, has performed reasonably well since joining RNG, his laning ability is clearly insufficient when facing Gu Shengbin.
So in no time, Lee Doo-hwan, taking advantage of his bottom lane advantage, started chasing RNG's jungler Xiaolongbao all over the jungle.
The two players were playing each other in the top lane, while Gu Shengbin was dominating Gala in the bottom lane, and Lee Doo-hwan was chasing Xiaolongbao around in the jungle.
-
On the contrary, the mid lane was surprisingly calm, giving the impression that the two were not playing a game or laning.
Instead, it is an elderly father who is teaching his child by example, constantly offering guidance and helping him grow.
Although Lee Sang-hyeok played very steadily in this game, no matter what, the match finally came to an end.
Around the 23-minute mark, as Lee Doo-hwan caught Xiaolongbao in the jungle, T1 took the Baron and then used it to push down RNG's base.
The moment the match ended, everyone could see on the player's screen that Lee Sang-hyeok, who had clearly won, let out a long sigh as he took off his headphones, seemingly not wanting the match to end so soon.
[What's going on? Didn't you win? Why are you acting like you lost?]
[If you encountered such a weak opponent, you probably wouldn't want the game to end too soon either; you'd want to enjoy it a little longer!]
[Of course, they were scared off by the thought of facing IG in the knockout stage!]
Zombies really know how to make their presence felt at any time!!!
Isn't that right? Surely the dwarf hasn't forgotten about 1557 from last year so quickly?
T1 has already secured a spot in the knockout stage, IG, you can talk after you've already made it!
