Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.
The playoffs in the LPL started much earlier than the LCK after the reform of the competition system, and the playoffs on the LCK side of the LPL entered the semi-final stage, and the playoffs on the LCK side started one after another, DK took the lead to win, and yesterday the T1 team also appeared.
T1 faced their old teammate KT and won 3-1.
In this round, the T1 team seems to have started the World Championship mode in advance, and we all know that T1 has different modes when playing different games, in short, T1 of BO3 is one team, T1 of BO5 Playoffs is another team, and then T1 will open another stronger mode in the Worlds.
It can be said that T1 of BO3 has the possibility of losing to various teams, but if you enter the BO5 stage of the playoffs, T1 is very stable, and T1 will be even more terrifying when you open the upper limit level of the championship.
Yesterday's game against KT, the T1 team made a series of strange moves, which reminded the LPL audience of the fear of being dominated in the World Championship last year, in the first game, T1 selected the lower Nila, the top single directly out of Olaf, and in the second game, T1 directly sacrificed Yasuo in the middle laner, and assisted in the selection of the blind monk, of course, this game was lost.
In the third game, T1 selected Olaf again, and in the fourth game, T1 boldly used the three-shooter system, and Zeus made a Wayne in the top laner, and T1 successfully killed the game to advance to the next round, but looking at the performance of the four games, Faker's state was relatively poor, and he turned on sleepwalking mode, and there were mistakes in almost every game.
Faker's signature czar made a lot of mistakes in this round of the game, including the failure to push back the opponent's support in the first hand and the loss of the big dragon by the counterattack, as well as the opening of the golden body by the female gun's big move to wash his face and remnants of blood, and two waves of lost and singled catch, and then Faker selected the small fire dragon mid-laner, which was also the first time in his career to select the mid-laner small fire dragon, and there was a reverse W mistake.
In the fourth game, there was also a wave of humorous manipulations that flashed the approach output during the chase and then ran back to the wall.
But in this round of the game, the teammates of the T1 team are basically full, of which the first game is the most famous scene, this game GUMA's one-handed Nila is indomitable, and the team battle is almost Bobo rushed to the front to open the group, and opened four or five team battles twice, after a wave of sudden deaths, he successfully completed the double kill by directly cutting the opponent's lower road combination through the small dragon group entering the field again.
After one of the waves of team battles was first started to cripple the opponent, Zeus's one-handed Olaf directly rushed into battle and cut down a wave of five kills.
In the third game, Olaf, who was also Zeus's hand, performed very well against the double C who lacked displacement, and Wayne in the last game also beat the crocodile on the line to help the team win the series.
The rules of the LCK playoffs are like this, the lower-ranked team plays first, DK's side is already promoted, then T1 plays KT's side, T1 enters the semi-finals stage first, and the first-ranked GEN chooses an opponent and can choose one from DK and T1, and finally GEN chooses DK as his opponent.
T1 will face HLE, this is the result that T1 wants to see, T1 team against KT team after this round of matches can be said to be mixed with joy, the good news is that T1 has opened the tactical kaleidoscope mode, but the worry is that Faker is not in good shape.
Personally, I think the next round of matches will be very exciting, T1 is expected to have a series of fierce battles with HLE, as for who can win, it depends on who can have the advantage of BP on both sides, and the performance of the on-court state.
Another point is that T1 started the World Championship mode in advance, which is not a good thing to some extent, proving that the T1 team is relatively bottomless about the current situation, and needs to fight for a higher ranking and a place in the World Championship by fighting for it, and everyone also wants to see where T1 will go this year, and whether Faker's form will return to the top in the future.
