After the players from both sides are in place, BP begins.

What IG didn't expect was that RNG started to go back on its way.

Although RNG was actually playing four protecting one in the previous few games, from the lineup level, their lineup is multi-core.

By the fifth game, it became a pure four-protect-one situation.

Unlike RNG, FPX did not change their thinking just because this was the fifth game, and even brought out the anti-ADC treasure, the Stone Man, in the top lane.

The moment this stone man was chosen, everyone in IG was shocked.

Everyone looked at Theshy and asked, "Is the Stone Man very powerful in this version?"

Theshy asked back: "Please name a version where the Stoneman is very powerful."

Everyone realized that this was not a version issue, the Stone Man had never been very strong in the game.

But at the same time, he has never been unpopular in the casual games, and there are always people who will play with him.

This is mainly because the hero's mechanism is simple enough and effective at the same time, especially when targeting the opponent's ADC.

Entering the game screen, the two teams fought back and forth in the early stage. Although Jin Gong was playing the stone man in the top lane and looked a bit clumsy, he did not suffer any loss when facing Letme.

The two of them were developing peacefully in the top lane, and it was impossible for GimGoon to suppress Letme.

However, after entering the group period, the role of the Stone Man was reflected. He kept staring at UZI and even used flash to scare him. Although UZI was able to react, he was not fooled by the flash.

But his output was indeed affected and he couldn't produce all of it.

Rookie commented: "You know what, this stone man is useful. He can really put a lot of pressure on UZI."

Smlz commented: "The Stoneman will be more or less intimidating, affecting the ADC's positioning and output. It doesn't matter if he doesn't use his ultimate. Of course, teammates can also cooperate and pull him back."

Baolan continued: "Yes, it feels like FPX has rehearsed this. They reserved this stone man for RNG's ultimate move and may not use it against other teams."

Ning Wang felt something was wrong: "No, RNG can be restricted by a stone man? He is also a talent."

FPX started to gain a fierce advantage and snowballed, winning three team fights in a row. Although it was not a big win, the advantage was accumulated. Once the Baron was taken, the victory was basically determined.

"It's posted! RNG is posted, they really lost to the Stone Man." Baolan couldn't believe it.

Smlz said: "Although the stone man seems to have never hit UZI once, and he didn't use his ultimate skill many times, but the deterrent effect is there, and as long as the E skill is used on the ADC, it will greatly restrict the ADC."

In the last team fight, UZI was obviously a little anxious, eager to output, and was hit by the Stone Man's ultimate move, and the team fight exploded!

In the end, FPX won the game.

In this way, IG’s final opponent is determined, FPX!

After watching the game, Fu Manduo greeted:
"Now that we've finished watching the game, you can say whatever you want to say."

Rookie said: "FPX is still very strong. It seems that no one can crack their system yet."

Theshy commented: "Although GimGoon doesn't look very outstanding, he is actually very strong in all aspects, whether it's laning, teamfighting, or solo laning."

Everyone nodded, and everyone felt the same way.

This is even more obvious when viewed from a bird's eye view. Jin Gong did indeed do a lot of things.

Fu Manduo looked at Yuan Shen: "What do you think about the jungler? Yuan Shen."

Yuan Shen said: "Xiaotian is a very good jungler, excellent in all aspects, I am looking forward to playing against him."

After hearing this, everyone understood that Yuan Shen was very confident now, otherwise he would not have said that.

Fu Manduo looked at the two people in the bottom lane: "What about the bottom lane? How do you feel? Are you under pressure?"

Smlz was the first to speak: "There is definitely pressure... I feel that FPX's bottom lane is pretty strong, but I will work hard and try not to hold you back."

Baolan nodded: "Me too, our bottom lane opponent should have no problem with withstanding the pressure."

Fu Manduo nodded, everyone has a different personality.

Some are more confident, some are more humble, so someone who says he can beat someone doesn't necessarily mean he can beat him. Similarly, someone who says he can't beat someone doesn't necessarily mean he can't beat him.

Fu Manduo concluded: "Now..."

Ning Wang suddenly interrupted: "And me, coach, have you forgotten me?"

Fu Manduo had no choice but to say, "What's the problem here?"

Prince Ning said, "I am also very confident. Gao Tianliang? He is easy to grasp."

Fumanduo did not comment, while Baolan looked at King Ning as if he was a fool.

Fumando continued:
"So what we need to do now is targeted training. We still have a few days, so everyone should hurry up."

So everyone on IG went back to train and prepare for the finals.

A few days passed quickly and the final day arrived!
At the LPL game, the venue was already packed with people before the game even started.

In the audience, fans of IG and FPX mixed together, waving the cheering signs in their hands wildly, looking very excited.

Although the game has not started yet, the fans have already started competing
In the parking area of ​​the competition venue, two buses drove slowly over, entered the parking area together, stopped together, and opened their doors together.

There are team logos on both cars, one for IG and one for FPX.

Yuan Shen was the first to get off the car, followed by the IG members.

On the FPX side, Doinb was the first to come down.

Both teams were ready and headed towards the entrance together.

So at the entrance, they met.

"Master Yuan! Isn't this Master Yuan? Please go easy on me today, Master Yuan." Doinb greeted him with a smile and walked over to say hello to Yuan Shen.

Yuan Shen said: "Doinb, long time no see."

"Hey, it wasn't long ago. Didn't we just fight last month? Wow, you IG guys were really ruthless and showed no mercy. We are all from the same region. There's no need to shave our heads every time. We have to save our reputation too."

Doinb kept talking and Yuan Shen was at a loss for words.

Doinb continued: "Leave some space for us so that we can meet again in the future, Yuan Shen. Let us win this final."

Doinb winked and seemed to be hinting at Yuan Shen.

If someone else said this, everyone around would be scared. This kind of thing is taboo even as a joke, otherwise people would misunderstand it as a match-fixing.

Only Doinb said this and no one cared, because he usually laughs and jokes, and it seems that he can say anything, but nothing counts and no one will take it seriously.

Yuan Shen smiled: "It depends on the situation. If you are strong enough, the championship will naturally be yours."

Doinb looked at the others behind Yuan Shen and said, "Rookie! Rookie, you need to give me some leniency when we play today. I'm not as good as you in laning."

"Ning Wang, Ning Wang, can you play today? If you want to play, I think you can play. Young people should strive for more opportunities for themselves."

"Baby, come and give me a hug."

Everyone in IG was speechless.

Yuan Shen reminded him, "Your teammates have all left, what are you still doing here?"

Doinb looked back and saw that his teammates had run away as if they were escaping from the disaster.
"Ah? Wait for me, my god, this teammate is too unreliable." Doinb rushed over and shouted.

The IG members walked towards the lounge on the other side.

Entering the lounge, Baolan complained: "Doinb really has too much energy. It seems that he is very motivated in everything he does."

Rookie nodded: "Yeah, I feel very tired after playing a BO5, but when he plays a BO5, it feels like it's just a warm-up."

Yuan Shen said: "Is it possible that his operation frequency is relatively low, so it is relatively not so tiring."

Rookie muttered, "That makes sense. It has some influence, but not all. He does have more energy than the average person."

After everyone from IG sat down, they waited for the game to start, played with their phones, and Yuan Shen read the public opinions online for the day.

"Do I still need to watch IG's game? Wake up and it's another victory."

"IG beating FPX is like a father beating his son, every time they beat each other, they kill each other indiscriminately." "Almost. The last time they met in the regular season, FPX almost won."

"You thought it was almost there, but it was actually worlds apart."

It seems that most people are still quite confident in IG.

After a while, Fu Manduo called out, "It's almost time, let's get ready to go on stage!"

So everyone in IG stood up and walked towards the door.

Bao Lan suddenly said, "Prince Ning, please sit down. What are you doing here?"

Prince Ning gritted his teeth and fought back with crazy expressions and gestures.

At the game site, in the commentary booth, Wawa, Miller and Rita were ready.

Wawa explained: "Welcome to the 2018 League of Legends Professional League, Spring Season Finals!"

Miller continued: "I believe everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time. The two strongest teams in LPL will appear on the stage and fight against each other. They are our three-time champion, the strongest team in history, IG, and FPX."

At the competition, the audience was activated and began to wave the cheering signs in their hands wildly.

The host Luo Xin came on stage. After a brief opening speech, Luo Xin said:
"Now, let's welcome the players from both teams to the stage, starting with FPX!"

The FPX players came on stage, one by one, starting from the top lane.

"Top lane, Jin Gong!"

Jin Gong walked out of the passage and the director gave a close-up.

Not many people cheered for GimGoon at the scene. After all, he was a blue-collar top laner and not outstanding.

"Jungle, Tian!"

Xiaotian appeared.

"Xiaotian! Xiaotian!"

In comparison, Xiaotian is much more popular than Jingong.

"Mid lane, Doinb!"

When Doinb appeared at the exit of the tunnel, the atmosphere reached a small climax:

"Doinb! Doinb!"

There were many people cheering for Doinb at the scene. Doinb also waved and greeted the audience while walking.

"ADC, Lwx!"

It’s Lwx’s turn. His popularity is slightly lower than Doinb’s, but not lower either.

"Assist, Crisp."

Finally, the support, Crisp.

Unlike the previous ones, although Crisp’s popularity is not very high, its characteristic is very obvious, that is, most of its members are women.

Luo Xin paused and continued, "Now, let us welcome FPX's opponent, the legendary team, the three-time champion, the strongest team in history, I!G!"

The atmosphere on the scene reached a climax: "IG! IG! IG!"

"Top lane, Theshy!"

"Ah ah ah ah..."

"Shy bro! Shy bro!"

The audience went crazy and cheered.

Theshy was made, the director gave a close-up, and Theshy's makeup photo and data appeared on the big screen.

"Jungle, Yuanshen!"

"God Yuan! You are my hero!"

"God Yuan! I want to give birth to a baby for you!"

“Ahhh… God Yuan is so handsome!”

The atmosphere on the scene reached a climax again.

Apart from the cheers, no other sound could be heard.

Yuan Shen’s makeup photos and data were also displayed on the big screen. The data could not be described as gorgeous, it was simply brutal!
"Mid lane, Rookie!"

Rookie appeared on the court and the audience cheered:
"Rookie! Rookie!"

"The best mid laner in the world!"

Next, the bottom lane.

"ADC, Smlz!"

Smlz walked out of the passage and headed straight for the stage.

"Assist, Baolan!"

Baolan does have a lot of female fans, and they are all cheering for him.

The two contestants stood in the middle of the stage, and suddenly, the lights on the stage dimmed.

The big screen also went dark and started playing a promotional video.

The first thing that appears is a team logo and an ID.

The team logo is naturally IG’s team logo, and the ID is: Yuanshen!

Yuan Shen’s back appeared in the middle of the screen, the BMG was deep and terrifying.

The back figure began to blur, at the same time, Theshy and Rookie appeared, standing on the left and right. Both of them stood very arrogantly. Theshy turned sideways, revealing half of his face, while Rookie put his hands in his pockets and lowered his head. He looked very relaxed but felt that he could kill his opponent at any time!

There are flaws all over my body, but I always feel that I will be killed instantly if I make a move.

Yuan Shen’s back is still there, and he and Theshy and Rookie look like the Demon King and his two lieutenants.

The camera zoomed out, and Smlz and Baolan also appeared!
The audience then realized that the IG players were actually standing on the top of the mountain. At the same time, the challenger FPX was climbing. Compared to the devil image of IG, the FPX players were more like heroes.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Shen's voice was heard and the trash talk segment began. All of this was filmed in advance.

Above the stage, the IG and FPX players have already arrived at their respective positions and are making preparations.

Everyone smiled slightly, feeling a little ashamed, as they had seen the promotional video for the finals in advance.

Although the post-production special effects are good, it is still quite embarrassing for the person being photographed.

After a while, the promotional video ended and the lights on the stage came on again.

"Oh oh oh oh!" The audience was in an uproar, their emotions were already aroused.

After both players are ready, they enter the BP phase of the first game.

In this game, IG is on the red side and FPX is on the blue side.

BAN position situation:
IG: Galio, Ryze, Kaisa

FPX: Gnar, Kha'Zix, and Shen.

Wawa commented: "FPX chose to target the top and jungle positions. FPX was under a lot of pressure in these two positions, while IG mainly banned Doinb's support hero and Kaisa in the bottom lane. FPX's Kaisa system is quite powerful."

"As long as teammates can help Kaisa stabilize in the early stage, or even establish an advantage, team battles will be easier when Kaisa is up."

Miller agreed: "Yes, this is a relatively common BP handling method for the two teams. I think since it is the finals, there must be other things prepared. Let's wait and see."

Entering the hero selection stage, FPX decisively locked on Taliyah on the first floor.

Rita analyzed: "Although Taliyah's support ability is slightly worse than Galio's, and his ability to protect teammates is also slightly worse, but he can play the C position and his output is not low, which makes him a good choice for FPX." (End of this chapter)
