In the lounge, Fumanduo came back after BP, but he was a little depressed now.

He knows that every time he makes a substitution, the fans will blame him.

Moreover, he cannot explain. If Yuan Shen is asked to explain, once someone leads the rhythm and says that this is bullying Yuan Shen and makes him take the blame, then he is finished. Many things are fine if you don't deny them, but once you deny them, netizens will think that they are true.

Entering the game screen, Fu Manduo asked: "Can we win this game?"

Yuan Shen replied: "It should be possible. The lineup is good and the fighting spirit is high. If the performance is good, there is great hope."

Prince Ning has indeed become smarter in this battle. He no longer rushes around recklessly like before.

Xiaotian is still using the previous response method, which is counter-camping, hoping to gain an advantage by counter-camping.

However, King Ning did not give him a chance and suddenly began to develop.

Ning Wang played Kindred in this game, and he was not afraid of development. This hero is very strong in the late game.

Soon the game time reached twenty minutes. Although Ning Wang took a risk and was caught and killed by the opponent because he wanted to get the mark, it was only this time. Everything else was stable.

Fu Manduo commented: "This is the first time I've seen Ning Wang play a game so steadily."

Yuan Shen joked: "People will always grow up, it's normal."

Both sides began to group together, and Ning Wang's Kindred exerted its strength in the team battle.

IG won battle after battle and defeated FPX step by step.

Fu Manduo exclaimed: "We won! It looks like we are going to win!"

In thirty minutes, IG took down the Baron and then ended the game with the final wave.

"As FPX's base crystal exploded, let us congratulate IG for defeating FPX with a score of 3 to 1. Ning Wang also proved himself. After losing the first game, he actually came back in the fourth game! And he also helped the team win the game. Perhaps this is the reward for the brave!"

After the game, Ning Wang jumped up from his chair and celebrated with his teammates.

Now I am really happy.

After the celebration, the IG players came to EDG to shake hands.

King Ning was quite proud when he shook hands with Xiaotian. It seemed that his revenge was finally achieved.

As for Doinb, he is feeling a bit uncomfortable now.

When I went on stage, I was thinking that with Ning Wang on IG, they could easily win this game, and all that was left was to consider how to play the fifth game.

If the tone had been better, maybe we would have won.

Now, Prince Ning hasn’t even gotten past this hurdle. The contrast is too great and it’s unacceptable.

After the game, Ning Wang was pulled over for an interview.

The host asked: "Why did you lose the first game but still make it to the fourth game? Aren't your teammates worried that you will continue to lose?"

Although this question seems a bit explicit, it is a very realistic problem. If it were in other clubs, it would be impossible for Ning Wang to come up again, so everyone is very curious.

Ning Wang replied: "Because I think I can do it. After all, I watched how Yuan Shen won from below."

"Then Yuan Shen was willing to give me a chance, so I came up."

Hearing this, Fu Manduo was quite relieved: "Prince Ning seems to have really grown up. He actually said such words."

Soon, King Ning came back from the interview, like a triumphant hero:
"Brothers, I'm back!"

Baolan complained: "Don't act like you won the Finals MVP of the S League."

Prince Ning laughed: "I know you are jealous of me, Princess Lan, I have MVP now, do you have it?"

Baolan was stunned after hearing this. This question really stumped him.

So far this season, he has not won the MVP.

"No, you can get the MVP because of you, Yuan Shen. If you and Yuan Shen were together, you wouldn't get it."

Baolan reacted quickly. He realized a problem. When he was on the court, if Yuan Shen was on the court, the MVP would basically go to Yuan Shen.

When Ning Wang is on the court, Yuan Shen is not on the court, so the greatest competitive pressure is reduced.

However, Ning Wang didn't care about that and taunted wildly: "Someone is anxious because he can't get the MVP and is anxious to find excuses for himself!"

Fu Manduo said, "Okay, let's go back first. If there is anything, we can talk about it when we get back."

So everyone decided to go back together, have a meal first, and then start reviewing today's game.

The next day, another semifinal began, with JDG vs. TES.

The IG members gathered together to watch the game.

When the players from both teams came on the court, they all felt quite serious. After all, the two teams had similar results in the regular season and had met before, with wins and losses, so their strengths were about the same.

Fu Manduo introduced: "From the current situation, Top Esports' mid laner should have an advantage over JDG's mid laner. In the current version, the top two positions are more important, and in the top lane, JDG's top laner Zoom is generally stronger. Most importantly, JDG's jungler is also stronger. Overall, JDG has a greater chance of winning."

Ning Wang commented: "JDG jungler Clid, this guy seems to have a strong ability to play rhythm in the early stage, not worse than me."

When he heard the last four people, Baolan looked at him with contempt.

Rookie teased, "What do you mean by not worse than you? I don't think I understand."

Ning Wang said: "He is a very strong one, first-rate, super first-rate jungler!"

Yuan Shen looked at Sima Laozei and said, "Laozei, who do you think is stronger in the bottom lane? TES and JDG."

Sima Laozei responded: "I think their abilities are very close. Imp and jackeylove are both excellent ADCs."

"Also, the laning phase mainly depends on the support. If the support is taken into consideration, Green Hair is definitely better. Of course, this is just my personal opinion."

Yuan Shen continued to ask: "Bao Lan, who do you think is more powerful, Green Hair or the Prophet?"

Baolan responded: "Green Hair has more experience, and he and Imp work better together."

In the first BP, both sides chose a fighting lineup. In the top lane, Gnar faced Gangplank. There was basically no peaceful development and it was definitely a head-on fight.

In the middle lane, Left Hand picked Snake Girl and Toothpaste chose Galio.

So after the laning started, Left Hand frantically increased the strength of Toothpaste, trying to suppress Toothpaste and make him unable to provide support.

However, Toothpaste was very good at withstanding pressure. He controlled his own blood volume, and after pushing three waves of soldiers, he was out of blood, so he returned to the city for supplies and TPed out.

The snake girl had no more mana and could only return to the city for supplies. The middle lane was temporarily stabilized.

Rookie commented: "It looks like the mid lane is being suppressed, but if it's just this level, it's completely acceptable for Galio. On the contrary, Snake Girl is in danger now. He needs to gain an advantage quickly and can't just drag it out."

In this game, neither jungler had any intention of coming to the middle lane, so they relied purely on their individual laning abilities.

JDG thus smoothly transitioned to level six.

After level 6, it was JDG's turn. Clid used Galio's ultimate to go to the bottom lane and cross the tower, and then take the little dragon.

Rookie muttered: "I feel like the mid lane matchup is a little off. The jungler should put pressure on Galio and not let him get so comfortable."

Baolan said: "I feel that JDG is like a hexagonal warrior now. They are excellent in all aspects and have no obvious shortcomings."

Yuan Shen said: "But JDG doesn't have a very long board right now. They are a strong team right now, but they don't have the potential to be champions." Ning Wang praised: "Yes, I feel the same way. They seem to be quite capable, but they don't have the final say."

Soon, JDG used the advantage in the bottom lane to snowball, and TES was unable to defend and finally lost the game.

The first game was won by JDG.

However, in the second game, Karsa and the bottom lane began to exert their strength and caught JDG off guard.

The second game was won by TES.

In the next three or four games, the game was a close fight and ended in a 2-2 tie.

The fifth game has begun.

Players from both teams come on stage and enter BP.

Rookie commented: "The gap between the two teams is still too small. It is inevitable that it will be dragged into a fifth game."

Ning Wang muttered: "I feel like there's still a gap in the jungle. Clid has a better rhythm in the early game."

Yuan Shen said: "Whether the jungler's rhythm is good or not often depends on the situation on the line."

"The problem with TES right now is that they like to push the lane, but they can't really gain an advantage, which in turn gives the opposing jungler opportunities."

Entering the BP, both sides started to show real stuff.

The left hand in the middle directly locked Karsa Ding.

"Karsa Ding? Is his left hand going to the sky?" King Ning exclaimed.

Yuan Shen analyzed: "It feels like Top Esports is at the end of its rope. They can't think of any other solution. JDG's play style is more holistic. Although Left Hand has strong individual abilities, he can't gain enough advantage in the laning phase. In teamfights, he may not be more useful than toothpaste."

"After all, a team needs someone to play supporting role."

In this laning phase, although we got a hero like Karsa who is weak in laning phase, our disadvantage in the mid lane was not that big. We basically had the same last hits and just couldn’t push the line.

Baolan praised: "Left Hand is still stable in laning. He can be like this even when playing Karsa Ding."

Sima Laozei said: "I think it depends on who the opponent is. If he faces Rookie, I think he may not dare to use Karsa Ding, otherwise the laning will be very uncomfortable."

Rookie was modest: "It also depends on what hero I get. If I pick Galio first and he picks Karsa and Ding later, I don't have much to do."

Soon, JDG's rhythm began to cooperate, and TES chose to defend and not fight to the death.

Fu Manduo noticed something different: "In fact, Top Esports is a team that likes to attack actively, but now they are not attacking and are just dragging the game. Do they want to drag the game until Karsa Ding reaches level 16?"

"If it really drags on, then there will be room for a team fight."

Yuan Shen was not optimistic: "Karsa Ding is level 16, I don't think he is as strong as I imagined. He needs to get more kills and have better equipment."

Twenty-five minutes into the game, Left Hand's Karsa Ding Zhen reached level 16, but there was no kill.

TES wanted to join the team fight and was eager to try. They seemed to think they could win now. The economic disadvantage of 2,000 yuan was negligible at this point in time.

Both teams fought over the little dragon, and in the end four were exchanged for five, and JDG won a narrow victory.

Rookie commented: "Karsa Ding's equipment is a bit bad, and now it's very awkward. Without the Avatar, he doesn't dare to go up in many situations, but if he gets the Avatar, the damage is not enough."

The director gave a close-up of the left hand, which looked quite anxious at this time.

Twenty-eight minutes later, there was another team fight, this time it was two for five, JDG won a big victory, and the game ended as soon as the big dragon was taken.

Ning Wang exclaimed: "What's going on? Karsa Ding can't even win a level 16 teamfight. This is too lame."

Baolan complained: "Karsa Ding is level 16 and the crystal of the other side's base should just explode."

Rookie explained: "Although Karsa is playable in this version, it is still far behind its peak strength."

In the end, TES still lost to JDG.

In this way, IG's final opponent is determined, JDG.

Fu Manduo greeted, "Now that we have finished watching the game, do you have any thoughts? Feel free to speak up and we can discuss it together."

Ning Wang was the first to speak: "Let's attack the jungle! Their jungler is quite good. If we can invade and disrupt his rhythm, we can win."

Baolan said, "Ning Mazi, it's not your turn to play in the finals, so don't make trouble."

When this question was raised, Fu Manduo looked at Yuan Shen:

"What do you think? Do you want to go first or Prince Ning?"

Yuan Shen replied: "I think both are fine. Prince Ning is also very capable now, and he has a chance to win if he goes up."

Baolan objected: "Letting him go would only increase the difficulty, there is no need for that."

Fu Manduo continued, "Then let's not rush to make a decision now. We can discuss this matter later. Now we should mainly discuss JDG's situation. As you saw in the game just now, JDG's playing style is very holistic and smooth."

“Everyone knows what they should do. Everything is well organized and there is no need for outstanding personal abilities.”

Prince Ning made a bold statement: "This is easy to deal with. They like to hide in the shell, so we just need to break their shell."

Fu Manduo responded: "It's easy to say, and Taobo's personal strength is also very strong, but he just can't break the turtle shell."

After some discussion, everyone went back and started targeted training.

The same is true for JDG.

We just defeated TES and have no time to rest. We have to prepare for the game against IG right away.

A week passed quickly and it was another weekend.

At the LPL game, in the backstage lounge, the IG team is waiting anxiously.

The development of the matter was beyond everyone's expectations.

Fu Manduo, the coach, was pacing, looking uneasy.

Others looked serious, holding their cell phones.

Ning Wang suddenly asked: "How long will it take for the game to start?"

Fu Manduo responded: "Twenty minutes, but we need to tell the referee the starting lineup ten minutes in advance, and it cannot be changed."

"Ten minutes...where is he?" asked King Ning.

Fu Manduo took out his cell phone and made a call.

Soon, he got a response: "He hasn't come yet. He's still getting an injection and his condition is not very good."

"Hey... Isn't Old Song usually in good health?" King Ning sighed.

The story begins at ten o'clock in the morning, which is the time when everyone gets up for training.

At this time in the past, maybe Ning Wang and Baolan were not here, but everyone else was there. However, Rookie was not here today either.

At first everyone thought it was nothing, but when it was twelve o'clock noon, he still didn't come. Now they felt something was wrong, so King Ning went to Rookie's room to check, and found that Rookie had a fever and was confused, unconscious, and still sleeping!

Everyone immediately sent him to the hospital for treatment. It was now three o'clock in the afternoon. In the past three hours, Rookie's condition did not seem to improve, which meant that he might not be able to play in the finals! (End of this chapter)
