On the sports arena stage.
A well-known star from Korea perford this year’s S World Championship the song, followed by an opening show that brought the finals atmosphere up to par.
Imdiately after, both teams made their entrances.
The Big Tiger team from Korea was the first to enter, which was within Ding Yue’s expectations, as it was their ho final stage after all.
Then the FY team made their entrance.
Looking towards the stage, Ding Yue saw his FY team’s Xiong Jiahao, Feng Jin, Qian Yu, Yao Jing, and Wang Shilin; all five players exuded confidence and were full of energy.
It seed that the incident regarding the training base’s food last night did not affect them, which likely ant that Director Jian Zihao had managed to handle the matter.
Since the "shaless sche" of the Big Tiger team from Korea had not succeeded, it would all co down to which of the players from the two teams could perform better today.
"FY team, victory is ours!"
At the venue, Ding Yue could also hear many voices from the Xia Country audience cheering for the FY team, but due to being the away team, their cheers were inevitably not as loud as those from Korea.
However, having so many Xia Country audience mbers in attendance to support the FY team was already quite impressive.
Ding Yue thought to himself that his FY team must perform well today and not let down the passionate audience who had traveled abroad to support them.
If they were to lose, it would be a real embarrassnt.
After all, during the last Mid-Season Championship, they had already lost to the Korean Big Tiger team once; this ti, at a world-class competition and especially in the top-tier tournant of League of Legends, a loss would an the FY team would probably struggle to raise their heads high for an entire year.
"FY team, victory is ours!"
It wasn’t just the audience from Xia Country; Wen Ruohan also scread her support.
"Let’s focus on the ga."
After saying this, Ding Yue picked up a bag of potato chips, ready to watch the first showdown between his FY team and the Korean Big Tiger team.
At this mont, dostic platforms had already comnced the live broadcast of the S World Championship, with over ten million viewers tuning in.
This is the charm of e-sports.
For this year’s comntators and hosts, apart from several veterans, there were so new faces.
These new faces weren’t exactly fresh, having been seen in the LPL’s Spring season, Sumr season, and playoffs.
Most crucially, these new comntators and hosts were all from Mist City Arts and Sciences University E-sports Ga College.
That’s right.
In addition to producing professional players such as Xiong Jiahao, Feng Jin, Yao Jing, Qian Yu, and Wang Shilin, Mist City Arts and Science University E-sports Ga College also produced so excellent students specializing in comntary and e-sports hosting.
Through their efforts, they interviewed for official LPL positions and received offers, becoming the promising new comntators and hosts of the LPL region.
Most importantly, these comntators and hosts were very skilled—usually, only the veteran comntators would "hook up an oxygen tank" for key monts.
But for the few comntators from Mist City Arts and Science University, the "oxygen tank" comntary was pretty much a basic move.
This showed LPL fans the rise of a new generation of comntators and hosts, which was naturally a good thing for e-sports.
After all, the veteran comntators and hosts would gradually retire, as it’s hard for them to keep up with the intense pace of comntary and hosting upon aging.
At that point, it’s essential for a new generation of young people to take the baton.
Previously, the LPL officials had tried to nurture young comntators and hosts, but the results weren’t very satisfactory. The gap between these young comntators and the veterans was too apparent, and even after one and a half years, they did not improve as much as expected.
The young comntators from Mist City Arts and Science University, however, were different.
Even when teaming up with Vale, Miwa, or Guan Daxiao for comntary, they were assertive and even showed a tendency of the new surpassing the old, a case of the blue outshining the indigo from which it ca.
At the competition venue.
The players from the Korean Big Tiger team and the FY team entered their respective booths.
After confirmation from the tournant committee, both sides quickly began the ban-pick phase of the ga.
The first ga’s ban-pick phase was quite standard for both sides; FY team didn’t bring out any exotic lineup, sticking to a system they were well-practiced in.
The Big Tiger team from Korea did the sa. Despite having several strong top laners, ADCs, and jungle champions targeted, they still managed to assemble a solid hero lineup due to their deep champion pool.
As the LPL comntators at the scene described, it was up to which team could play their lineup better.
This was especially true in the laning phase.
Of course, if the ga dragged into the late ga, both teams’ lineups were capable of a fight, as neither team had just one late-ga carry position.
After the ban-pick phase concluded, the ga promptly moved to Summoners Rift.
Originally, neither team had planned to engage in a level one team fight, but due to so coincidental rotations and ward placents, they unexpectedly clashed.
The key was, this encounter took place in the upper jungle area, where FY team had only their top and mid laners present, with their bottom lane duo and jungler a bit too far away.
