Chapter 231: God-Slaying Battle!

~6 min read 1,060 words

【There will be a huge surprise today!】

【Of course, for some people it can also be called a fright!】

The above two sentences were just posted on Snake's official blog.

After this period of public opinion rhythm, Snake's official blog had indeed become the focus of many people's attention during this period, so within a few minutes of posting on Weibo, the comment section saw hundreds of comments consisting only of question marks.

The scene.

Inside Madison Square Garden Arena, heads gathered in the darkness.

Inside the venue, which had gathered over twenty thousand spectators, each person made a little sound, and together they created a huge commotion.

At this moment, the players have already taken the stage.

On the big screen at the venue, the semifinal promotional video was playing, and the figure appearing in the screen was none other than Faker, the leader of the SKT team that won the S3 and S5 championships.

In front of the camera, Faker still had that immovable-as-a-mountain expression, his voice calm and steady, revealing a strong confidence:

"Initially, our team thought that if we met G2 in the quarterfinals, we could still win, but later it might become more difficult. Because G2 is a very... interesting team, they are good at adding unexpected elements to their own system. Moreover, player Firrrrrre makes G2's tactics unpredictable, and his personal ability is outstanding, often helping G2 gain an overwhelming advantage early on."

Faker said this, then paused slightly, and the camera turned to the championship ring on his hand.

Two.

One gold, one silver.

They gleamed brightly in front of the camera.

He usually doesn't wear them, but for some reason, during the promotional shoot he chose to put both rings on his hand, and the photographer captured this interesting detail.

Faker noticed the camera moving, smiled a little embarrassedly, and covered the championship ring with his other hand.

"Actually, for me, whoever I face is the same, because my goal is to win the championship, so I must defeat all opponents.

"Wanting to win the match is also very simple—if you don't make mistakes, nothing unexpected will happen."

The screen flashed, and Perkz appeared before the camera; this kid ate the most during a hot pot dinner the night before, causing a huge red pimple to burst out on the tip of his nose, which under the camera looked even more dazzling than Faker's championship ring.

Perkz let out a goose-like laugh:

"The Demon King? It feels a bit funny, because in my impression demon kings are meant to be challenged and overthrown. Yes, yes, he is indeed strong, but he is too... old-school.

"I mean SKT's brick-by-brick playstyle; everyone knows where they will place their next brick—why do they still keep winning?

"Well, that's because in previous world championships I wasn't there..."

Lastly appearing on screen was Firrrrrre's back view.

He wore a large windbreaker emblazoned with the G2 logo, hands in his pockets, standing by the sea, facing the rising sun.

The waves gently lapped the shore, and the morning breeze tousled his hair.

He never turned around, and in the end he only said one sentence:

"We will bring a revolution."

The words drifted away with the wind, the images gradually faded, and when the players' bench view appeared on the four-sided big screen, the noise at the venue reached a new peak.

"Radisson my sharp-headed ones!"

"Welcome back!"

The venue commentator's voice suddenly rang out.

"This is MSG!"

"This is the decisive scene of the second match of the S6 World Championship semifinals!"

"Regarding this match, we can give it many more names:"

"God-Slaying Battle!"

"The strongest dark horse in history challenging the defending champion!"

"The West's last hope!"

"Wait wait wait! Anyway, at this very moment, the last hope has not yet been extinguished; the miraculous G2 has been doubted from the start, endured the brutal group stage clashes (referring to first round 3-0, second round 1-2), then in the quarterfinals successfully slew the dragon, sweeping LPL's last hope RNG 3-0."

"Now, they once again reach a new peak in their team's history—on the stage of the World Championship semifinals, challenging the defending champions, S! K! T!"

"Just as they said in the promotional video, this is a showdown between the new king and the demon king, a clash of stability and innovation!"

"We look forward, we look forward to G2 bringing a revival, a miracle!! to the entire Western League of Legends esports!! AndNow!!"

"G2 vs SKT! Officially starting!"

Bullet comments:

【LETSGOG2!】

【LASTHOPE!】

【Faker's aura is super strong】

【FireFireFire!!!】

【G2GOGOGO!】

【Listen to me, LPL is going to be renamed LUL】

【hhhhhhhhh, LUL's First Seed G2!】

【G2 fans are so scared, they don't know what to use to beat SKT, please don't let it be 3-0】

【Don't be scared, guaranteeing 3-0, thinking this way you won't be fearful】

As the venue commentator's voice just faded, the BP screen suddenly flashed out, and the intense BGM began to play.

The whole venue again is

In the LPL commentary booth, Wawa's voice was soaring, seizing the initiative:

"Alright! The second Bo5 of the semifinals, G2 vs SKT, BP officially begins!

"Blue side SKT, red side G2! SKT's first ban was decisively given to Leopard Girl! Wow! Blue side actively banned Leopard Girl, this is really……"

"Something to be proud of."

Miller continued,

"As a newcomer who debuted only in the summer split, on the stage of the Worlds semifinals, as SKT's opponent, receiving such treatment right off the bat, I can only say that this player, Jiao Shen, in a sense, has already reaped a tremendous honor!"

"Exactly......"

Longhair's voice had added some ups and downs, but still had an inescapable hypnotic feel,

"And G2 countered by banning Faker's Ryze; I think if nothing unexpected happens, these two champions won't be available in this entire Bo5."

"Certainly, as the core figures of both sides, these two champions just happen to be the strongest in the current meta, feeling like they're locked into the ban slots on both sides."

"SKT's second pick...... Wow!!!"

The venue erupted in a huge commotion.

"Male Gunner?!!"

"This...... banning the Male Gunner, is it really necessary?!"

"SKT's understanding...... feels like there's a discrepancy with us?"

"I think the accurate description is that perhaps our understanding has deviated."

"Good heavens, Jiao Shen's treatment—banning two junglers right off the bat!"
