Chapter 186. Please welcome the next LCK top laner to the examination room!
The moment KZ's crystal exploded, the entire LPL lounge erupted in cheers.
The coaches were moved to tears, the players hugged each other in celebration, and the cheers almost lifted the roof off. The RW players on the field were even more excited, some even weeping with joy. They raised their hands and bowed to the audience in gratitude.
On the commentary stage, the three LPL commentators were flushed and their bodies were trembling slightly as if controlled by an invisible force.
Their eyes were wide open, staring intently at the victorious RW players on the field. Their mouths were agape, but they were too excited to utter a complete sentence.
The commentator even clenched his fists and raised them high above his head, as if cheering for the team he supported.
Zeyuan stood on the commentary platform, his face flushed red, with beads of sweat on his forehead. His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but the words seemed to be blocked by an invisible force.
Finally, after a difficult struggle, he managed to squeeze out a few broken, indistinct words from his dry throat:
"That was...that was amazing! The RW players...they really played exceptionally well today! They managed to pull off such an incredible stomp! This is beyond everyone's expectations!"
"You have to understand, they are not facing an ordinary opponent, but KZ, the Spring Split champion team from the LCK region!"
"This team has always been known for its strong strength and superb tactics! However, today, the RW players, with their tenacious fighting spirit and excellent teamwork, successfully defeated KZ without any chance to fight back! This is simply a miraculous victory!"
Commentator Miller kept wiping the large beads of sweat from his forehead, but his gaze never left the stadium. The entire commentary booth was filled with an exciting and thrilling atmosphere, making everyone's heart race.
"Yes! Ladies and gentlemen! Team RW has successfully revitalized our LPL!"
"Now, everyone, please calm your excitement and prepare for the fifth and most intense showdown!"
The on-site staff began to determine the fifth participating team from each region.
However, for LPL viewers, the team that will play in the fifth game is already a given!
The invincible Royal Never Give Up (RNG) will be competing for the second time! Bringing glory to the LPL region!
Amidst the clamor, the host walked to the center of the stage with a microphone.
"Let's congratulate RW on their victory! It was a thrilling and exciting match."
He then invited RW players to the stage for interviews.
Anyway, there was still plenty of free time before the fifth round started, which shows that the organizers really know how to ensure the live broadcast ratings.
When Doinb walked onto the stage and took the microphone, his voice and hands were still trembling slightly.
"Thanks to my teammates, everyone played exceptionally well today. I also want to thank the fans who have always supported us. This honor belongs to everyone who loves the LPL."
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience once again.
"That's amazing! King Kree!"
"Who said RW is bad? RW is amazing!"
"So cool! I'm a fan of Rogue Warriors now!"
"You know, I've always been a fan of RW!"
"RW players are the best! Now please get some rest and get ready to welcome the championship!"
"..."
Some LPL viewers have already started celebrating their championship victory.
After all, the IDs of the "RNG" team are too reassuring.
The five-man team that won the S7 World Championship, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for them to play this kind of game?
If you can't beat SKT and you can't beat KZ, why don't you let the other two teams come up and try?
After the interview, the RW players stepped off the stage and returned to the lounge to receive applause from everyone.
As soon as they entered the rest room, the RNG players came over to congratulate them and encourage each other.
Uzi patted Doinb on the shoulder and joked:
"You guys are playing so fiercely, the pressure is on us now, we're under a lot of pressure."
Doinb responded with a smile:
"Haha, God, stop teasing me. We've been teammates before, why would you be nervous?"
The people in the lounge burst into laughter.
Compared to the previous matches, a surprising scene unfolded after this crucial fourth match – the coaches did not gather together as usual to discuss the draft picks for the next match.
Because the team that will be featured next is the undisputed and unique champion of the LPL region in the first half of this year!
They are like dazzling stars high in the sky, shining brightly and making all their opponents pale in comparison.
Moreover, as long as Fang Han is in the formation, all concerns about tactical arrangements and lineup selection seem superfluous.
The team that needs to worry about the fifth game is the LCK, not the LPL!
In other words, this time, LCK is the real challenger!
As expected, just as everyone in the LPL predicted and imagined.
At this moment, a tense and anxious atmosphere permeated the LCK's rest area.
The coaches paced back and forth anxiously, large beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads.
The contestants were all restless, some with furrowed brows and others with their hands clenched, as if they would stand up at any moment.
The entire lounge was like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment. They were like ants on a hot plate, frantically pacing around, completely losing their usual composure and calmness during matches.
With a formidable enemy at hand, they didn't even know who to send out to fight?
Send SKT? The five of them were just defeated by RNG, and their mentality is clearly not yet adjusted.
Send KZ? The five team members sitting in the rest room had clearly lost their will to fight.
This leaves only KT and AFS as the teams that can play.
After a brief discussion, the coaches finally decided to let AFS play!
After all, they had just won a game and were the second seed from the LCK.
Using their invincible tortoise formation for defense and counter-attack, they might actually be able to compete with RNG!
"Everyone, keep it up! The future of LCK depends on you!"
The five AFS players had a million things they wanted to say at that moment.
We're playing against RNG? Really?
Especially top laner Kiin, he was completely out of it.
I'm supposed to go up against that undefeated knight king? Can I even win?
