Chapter 61 We Will Win
Chapter 61 We Will Win
SKT lounge.
Seeing how quickly WE destroyed GAM's base.
The rest of the SKT players were slightly surprised, but they also felt it was within their expectations.
Among the crowd.
Only Kouma showed a thoughtful expression.
He was about to turn around and ask Huni when he noticed the other looking at the big screen with disdain. So he asked, "So? If the opponent picks Draven, can you withstand the pressure? Or do you want to go head-to-head with them?"
"He's just bullying the person across the street."
Huni scoffed, "And then there's the habit of constantly 'jungling,' which is really just so-so."
"I think the coach, you know without me saying it, is just taking advantage of GAM's lack of management skills. If they run into someone who knows even a little bit, they won't even know how they died."
As a player who has competed in Europe and America, Huni's choice of top laner has never been conventional.
"Coach, you know, I used to play Lee Sin and Lucian top lane, and I got completely crushed in lane, but what good did it do?"
Huni's words were full of disdain: "Once the opponent picks a lineup that can charge into the enemy team in the mid-game, team fights are unwatchable; they're basically feeding."
Koma twirled his pen, his gaze lingering on Huni. Seeing Huni's certainty, he asked, "If you were given the same treatment, could you hold your own in lane?"
In Kouma's opinion, the other members of WE are not particularly outstanding.
Especially Ning.
I don't know where this savage came from; he has almost no jungle planning and his basic skills are quite average.
But they managed to win by helping the top lane gain an advantage.
WE relies heavily on the top lane, and the opponent's top laner pick is quite strange. Before the match, no one can predict what will happen.
So Koma wanted to test whether Huni had a way to deal with the opponent.
If it can be dealt with.
SKT will have a significant advantage in the subsequent knockout stages.
"I will kill him."
"What?"
Koma showed a hint of surprise on his face. Although he often suppressed Huni, he felt that the other party was too complacent.
But this is the first time I've heard Huni say something so fierce.
"I said I would kill him, crush him in lane, and let him know that in the top lane, some clever tricks are useless. Being bad is being bad, and skill cannot be made up for by the choice of champion."
Huni's eyes were resolute.
He recalled the moment when he first took on three opponents in a single match at the World Championship.
Their opponent is also an LPL team.
But so what?
He played for European and American teams, and even with teammates like those, he could still beat them.
It is still possible now.
"There won't be any skilled top laners in the LPL."
Huni said this with great contempt.
"Okay, then we'll make you the core of our strategy and make it more comfortable for you to play in the top lane."
Kouma made a decision.
Having made plans, the replay of the exciting team battle had just finished on the big screen in the lounge, and the interview segment was now playing.
Since there were no Korean-language interviews during the 2017 MSI Mid-Season Invitational, only Park Ji-sun from OGN provided simultaneous interpretation.
Seeing that slightly smug face on the screen, Huni couldn't help but pout.
Why do these officials like interviewing this guy so much?
Is it because this guy is handsome?
"This guy is always showing off."
Huni couldn't help but say, "I hope he can continue being his clown even after he loses."
The interview is over. The next three matches are very important because TSM, G2 and FW have the same number of points!
This means that these three matches will almost determine the fate of the three teams; in the three-to-two round, one team will inevitably be eliminated.
But LPL and LCK viewers don't care.
Everyone was only concerned about the final battle.
Whether SKT or WE wins, and how well they win, is very important.
After a short break, as both teams entered the arena, the LPL commentators officially joined the live stream.
"This is the last match of the day, and also the final match of the MSI group stage."
Miller composed himself and continued, "Whether this match is won or lost is no longer relevant to either team. Both WE and SKT have already secured their spots in the knockout stage."
"Yes, even if they lose, the two teams will never meet in the semifinals."
Wawa changed the subject: "But if WE can win, it will put a lot of pressure on SKT. After all, to beat SKT, we not only need to win the laning phase, but also need to use a lot of tricks."
"And Butterfly is someone with a lot of little tricks up his sleeve," Miller said with a hint of amusement in his voice.
"Yes, now it's up to both sides to decide."
[What's the point of making a decision? SKT is pretty clean if they don't bring up their history of jealousy.]
[I'm laughing in exasperation. Here we go again? Have you forgotten how Huni got completely crushed by Butterfly in ranked games, unable to even farm a single wave?]
【No, you can't even bring up ranked matches?】
[Fun fact: Huni used to play top lane Lucian too; Chen Cu was just poorly imitating Huni.]
[Chen Cu won, but Huni won too?]
However, regardless of whether it was white or black pieces, most of the comments on the screen were "Chen Cu" (a derogatory term for someone who is jealous or nauseous).
Sometimes Chen Wang was also exhausted, but there was nothing he could do.
Amidst the arguments in the live chat.
SKT, playing on the blue side, banned LeBlanc as their first ban.
The viewers in the live chat were immediately shocked.
[They dare to let him pass? Koma's back at it again? His classic S6 mistake of letting Jhin pass the Dragon King back cost them the Summer Championship]
What else is there to say? It just means SKT has something they can counter.
[The secrets to aged vinegar have been thoroughly investigated!]
[Chen Cu's hand is shaking; he's going to get Parkinson's from this beating.]
The WE team wasn't as surprised as the chat. They had originally planned to play a different lineup to set a trap for SKT, so they disabled Lee Sin.
SKT continued to remove Vayne and Skateboard Shoes.
After all, for Huni...
If he really goes head-to-head with those two heroes in the top lane, they'll have a tough time.
WE, on the other hand, banned Kha'Zix and Graves.
Miller watched the entire ban phase and his expression turned serious: "The bans from both sides weren't too different from what we expected. SKT still chose to pressure WE's top and mid laners, while WE made their picks specifically targeting Peanut."
"The main problem is that Butterfly King hasn't been getting any Bp resources," Wawa said. "Huni's Kennen, Jayce, and Rumble are all out there right now. Won't it be a bit difficult for top lane?"
"It's alright. After all, WE is on the red side, and we have one counter pick reserved for Butterfly. If all else fails, we can pick a tank, right?"
on the big screen.
SKT took Lulu first, as she has a stronger ability to protect teammates.
WE, on the other hand, instantly locked in Lucian and Elise.
"Picking Lucian so quickly?!"
"I've chosen! If you dare to release me, I dare to choose you—that's how confident I am!!"
In the SKT player's bench, Kkoma stands behind Huni.
"Lucian has already been given to the enemy team, and they'll most likely pick him for top lane as well. I hope you won't disappoint me."
"We will win," Huni said succinctly.
SKT, in their second and third picks, immediately locked in Olaf and Twitch!
