There used to be a saying in the e-sports circle that LCK’s BO5 players were all gods! LPL can't beat it no matter how hard it tries!
This is not unreasonable and is indeed based on facts.
In the history of LPL, there has never been a BO5 victory over an LCK team, except for EDG when they created a miracle on the MSI stage.
After that, there was no more.
That's why when RNG fell in the final decider, the mentality of LPL fans collapsed so completely.
But even non-professionals can see that this year's EDG is different!
"Will win! EDG really may win!"
"EDG is in great shape! And they have too many lineups! They can fully cope with it!"
"In the first game, EDG really crushed Samsung in every aspect. Whether it was state, laning strength, or team operation, they all crushed Samsung!"
"The most important thing is the tactical system! Just this Quinn's tactical system is enough for Samsung. If the system of Brother Wearing Glasses is used, I don't know how Samsung should respond?"
"Brother wearing glasses? What kind of system is this? Doesn't my brother wear overalls?"
"Did Little Heizi show his chicken feet?"
In the past, LPL commentators would think about issues from the perspective of LPL, but this year is different.
This year they can finally stand on the leading side and help Samsung, which is lagging behind, find problems.
The most urgent person should be Guan Zeyuan.
Guan Zeyuan is not a frontline commentator today, he is a backstage commentator in the studio.
Everyone knows that he is a die-hard Samsung fan, and his partner, the second player, was indescribably happy when he saw his expression after Samsung lost the first game.
When they came back during the intermission and the director brought the footage to the studio, the two of them analyzed it first.
Remember: "Brother Guan, are you okay? Do you want Bo Suxiao Jiuxin Pill?"
Guan Zeyuan smiled awkwardly: "You really need to do something better, brother. EDG played so well! To be honest, the first game EDG played gave me the feeling that it was the best game I have played in the past few years! That kind of complete The crushing force of Fangzhi left Samsung unable to find any chance to counterattack! It’s so suffocating!”
Remember: "Indeed. But as a ten-year-old fan of Samsung, what adjustments do you think Samsung should make in the second game?"
Guan Zeyuan: "First of all, as the leading team, EDG must not be careless. This Samsung team has been following Xiao Yan's e-sports style this season. They may not show much strength in the early stage, but they will get stronger as they play in the later stage! "
Guan Zeyuan: "Secondly, thinking about the problem from Samsung's perspective, I think what they should correct most is their mentality. What they are facing now may be the strongest opponent they have encountered this season! Their first game In my opinion, it’s not just the upper lane that loses! The bottom lane loses completely! Xiao Zhao’s cannon is so good! The nanny who is the control girl is also very impressive.”
Guan Zeyuan: "I think since you can't conquer the upper jungle area, you might as well follow the version and focus on your lower jungle area! Because your bottom lane itself is not weak! The ruler can do C! The little cannon can grab it first. , don’t let EDG play so comfortably.”
Guan Zeyuan analyzed it and the relationship was terminated because the relationship was not long enough.
If the director hadn't urged him through the headphones, he could have given Samsung more tricks.
To be fair, Guan Zeyuan still has a strong understanding of games, and what he said is indeed very reasonable.
But just one question can completely deny what he said!
That's the trigger!
When the director brought the camera to the front commentary box, Miller pointed this out.
Miller: "Brother Guan's analysis is correct. You can consider raising the three-star priority of the hero Xiaopao. But if you want to get Xiaopao... you have to be on the blue side. Then EDG Can Samsung survive Conte’s back-up plan?”
Neither Forbidden God nor Vayne were taken in the last round on either side, but EDG didn't take them either.
After careful consideration, it is not difficult to find that EDG is afraid that Vayne will be countered.
In the last game, Samsung was on the red side, and the counter position was given to the top lane. It was risky for EDG to take Vayne.
But if Samsung chooses the blue side in this game and takes the small cannon first, it is entirely possible for EDG to show off the combination of Green God Gavien.
It is even possible to add Weapon, Sword Girl, and Jess to the Green God.
Wawa: "It depends on how Samsung chooses! Here it comes! Samsung indeed chose the blue side! After losing a game first, Samsung is finally going to make a change!"
Samsung's players may not have time to read the comments from netizens after the game, but they can feel it through the expressions and attitudes of the staff. I'm afraid the reviews are not very good.
In the LCK, if the reputation is gone, then it may really be gone!
No one is indispensable, there are plenty of people who can replace you!
This time, they must be serious!
As soon as they came up, as everyone expected, Samsung eliminated Quinn.
In BO5, the opponent suddenly comes up with a unique system. If you don't prepare a response in advance, it is too risky to temporarily find a lineup to go to Counter.
Samsung doesn't dare to gamble, they can only ban it.
"That's the right thing to do. I can't play and I can't restrict you, so I'll stop you. Samsung has the right idea."
Without facing the camera, Guan Zeyuan relaxed a lot and watched the game with the mentality of a fan.
Remember: "However, Samsung has banned too many people? Jess has been banned, Quinn has been banned, and Kasumi has been banned. Then there are still systems that EDG can use! What do Galio and the prince say?"
Guan Zeyuan sneered: "Do you really think EDG can do it? If EDG knew it, they wouldn't have banned Galio in the first game."
Guan Zeyuan was indeed right. Junior Galio had just started practicing and his proficiency was not that high.
But low proficiency doesn’t mean you can’t use it!
Like clockwork, after Scout was developed, two out of every two battles were won!
The current EDG is no longer the EDG of the summer split, they have been reborn!
Before, EDG positioned Scout to be a big C, but now, he only needs to be a tool man!
As expected, Samsung took the small guns first in the first pick, while EDG directly locked up Galio and Prince.
Immediately afterwards, Samsung got Lulu and Clockwork.
EDG got Feng Nu.
Generally speaking, both sides got pretty good results in the first round, but Xiao Zhao's one was a bit painful.
"What should Samsung do if they start a fight with Verus Xiaozhao?"
"This salad!"
"Samsung shouldn't be targeting the AD position, right? The top laner hasn't even shown up yet! With the performance of the young master, isn't it worthy of you, Samsung, to target him?"
Samsung is really not targeting it!
This time they chose to break the pot and hit the road!
Big Mouth in one hand, Verus in the other, all banned!
"It's over! Samsung is going to take down the road now!"
"That's for sure. Which bot lane should EDG choose?"
"As I looked around, I felt like the only one left was EZ."
"What about Wei En? Xiao Zhao's Wei En also has something to say."
"Why don't you order Vayne? How do you play with the wind girl Gawaine? Do you also want to imitate Samsung and give your home to others?"
It seems like a dead end, but EDG has already thought of this.
They expected this might happen before coming to the World Championships, so they prepared a lineup in advance.
"Policewoman? Hey! A policewoman can do it! The speed promotion system of a policewoman plus Fengnu! You Lulu plus a cannon are really worth it!"
"Good choice! EDG chose the bottom lane well!"
"But now there is a problem. This lineup...doesn't have team AOE...what if the three-star top laner and jungler come up with a big meat? Both the big bug and the pig girl are still outside."
Why are you afraid? Samsung really took advantage of Big Bug and Pig Girl!
solid! So solid!
Samsung got the lineup they wanted most this time, with stable output in the later stage, a strong front row player, good team initiating and control, and extremely strong protection capabilities.
On the other hand, if you look at the EDG policewoman's rapid promotion system, if you don't get an advantage in the mid-term, you will die suddenly!
"What if... I mean if... EDG's top laner comes out with Rambo or Kennen at this time, what do you think?"
PDD held his head with both hands and made an extremely exaggerated expression: "I don't dare to think about it! I don't dare to think about it at all!"
Wawa: "If it were Rambo or Kennen, I think this lineup would be reasonable. But the question is...does Zhuang Tian have this hero in his hero pool?"
Saozhu: "Don't be too embarrassed, okay? To be honest, as a former top laner, I am already very surprised by his hero pool! Quinn can play, Vayne can play, Troll can play, weapons , Sword Queen, Jayce, he can control all types of top laners, he is already very strong! Why didn’t he play heroes like Kennen and Rambo before? Obviously his proficiency is not that high, but I think he It’s already amazing, there’s really no need to embarrass professional players too much. Professional players are human beings too!”
Reasonable!
This is the voice of professional players.
The barrage teacher will always say, what should you use to fight, and what hero should be the most suitable for such a lineup.
But the players must know how to do it!
As soon as the version changes, they have to practice. How many heroes can they practice enough to take it on the field?
Players are humans too, not gods!
But these standards are only for ordinary people!
Zhuang Tian is a human being, but he is also a young master!
The master's hero pool is all determined by his mood!
Does it matter whether the proficiency is high or not?
The key is confidence!
Sister control: "Then I really took it?"
Zhuang Tian: "Take it."
Girl control: "You really took it? I clicked it and regretted it before I had the chance, right?"
Zhuang Tian: "Hurry up and get it! Gouba is really good at beeping. Believe it or not, I will wait for a thunderbolt to fall from the sky and wipe out your entire ancestral hall?"
Factory Director: "Hi~~ It's so cruel!"
Xiao Zhao: "Stop saying a few words, sister control."
Sister control: "Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,
The moment EDG confirmed Kenan on the fifth floor, the atmosphere at the scene reached a new peak!
The LCK commentator sitting at the scene saw this, and the smile on his face gradually solidified.
"Are you trying to teach cuvee how to play Kenan?!"
"The intention is a bit obvious!"
"Can he play Kenan? Does he understand thunder?"
"I don't know. But now I hear these cheers at the scene, it's quite annoying."
"It's so noisy! Family! Can SSG come on? I want this place to be turned into a library!"
The LCK commentators are also a little confused.
