"Do you want to study any fancy work?" Firefox didn't prepare for the group stage at all. The depth of the hero pool of the team members made him not even think about it.
He has already been studying his opponents in the knockout rounds.
This was said to Li Nian, who was wearing a blue tortoise-shell hat and drinking tons of ice Coke.
After a brilliant performance in the World Championship.
Firefox relied on years of coaching experience to give Li Nian'an the title of 'Annual Livelihood King'.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to prepare for the next spring split and learn more about the strength of fmvp.
A civil war.
If you have enough time to study, you won't be afraid of finding his weak spot - defeating the world champion, thinking about it makes Firefox excited.
but now.
The main focus is still on the All-Stars, the first game against the North American LCS in the host region.
They couldn't escape the opener.
The LPL division, which has just won the S7 championship, is also the best choice to increase ratings. Riot has a tight grip on traffic.
"What did Tengjing Sports say?" Li Nian asked lazily while lying on the sofa. "Do you want to improve the effect of the program, or do you want us to prepare seriously to compete for the championship?"
"While ensuring the ranking, fight as freely as possible." Firefox did not hide it, and expressed his understanding, "You must grasp with both hands, and you must be hard with both hands."
Uzi curled his lips and said, "I want both of them."
The other teammates also laughed.
I have a big appetite.
The new season is a test for any division, and it is impossible for major coaching staffs to develop adapted versions of heroes and tactics in a short period of time.
You have to feel your way across the river.
The designers responsible for balancing the alliance had the same idea.
Riot Games holds All-Stars with great fanfare, and also wants to finalize the direction of S8 through testing by the world's top professional players before the arrival of version 8.1.
in short.
——Players and designers are opposites and complement each other. Leaving either side will destroy the fairness of e-sports.
After setting their goals, the players who came to participate in this All-Star Game sat down in their respective positions and started training in an orderly manner.
Uzi took a sip of ice and glued the rehabilitation patch in his pocket to the tendon sheath of the palm of his right hand.
This has become his daily routine.
In this spring season, he was unable to play on the court due to severe tenosynovitis in his right hand. He spent the entire season recovering before he temporarily improved.
Before the semi-finals started, the recurrence of tenosynovitis also seriously affected Uzi's daily training and condition.
The two participating teams, including the sparring team, all knew this well.
only
There are some things that are better known within the circle, but everyone has a tacit understanding to pretend not to know, and feel there is no need to publish them online.
Otherwise, there will definitely be a lot of trolls chasing you.
Due to the incurable nature of tenosynovitis, physical therapy can only delay his hand injury. To fully recover, surgery must be performed and more than half a year of training must be guaranteed.
But for professional players, the unpredictability of surgery makes it the least likely option.
Especially Uzi’s style of play.
The operation intensity of adc is higher than that of ordinary positions. From the laning stage to the team battle, the whole game is like dancing on the tip of a knife. If the reaction is a little slow, he will become a dead guy who takes three lanes without output.
If the opponent is killed, then forget about it.
He's just a human being who likes to pretend, but he still wants to operate without any real strength. In the end, he can't even survive a sudden death in a team battle.
After all, I collapsed during the laning phase.
Why do team battles still require so much of me?
But Uzi still did not choose to retire. Like Mingkai, the temptation of money still exists for both of them, but it is no longer that big, and the pursuit of self-worth is more important.
He still has a championship dream. Now, in Uzi's home, apart from the solo trophy known as the Little S Championship, there is only one photo of winning the trophy in the intercontinental competition.
The title of Uncrowned King followed him for five whole years.
The only trophy he has is of little value. If the shelf is not full of championship trophies when he retires, he can't put a flowerpot on it.
As for theshy's hand injury, it was purely a man-made accident.
Fortunately, in this life, he hasn't been holding a trash can and furiously outputting because he drank too much, and Si Ma Ning hasn't been expelled yet.
In 2011, the principal spent a huge amount of money to purchase the CCM team to form IG. The DOTA2 division that has been operating for a long time has formed a mature club system.
It is equipped with various physical therapists and nutritionists to prevent occupational diseases that players may suffer in advance.
Watching the little fat man adjusting to the right hand carrying the tendon sheath protective gear while holding the mouse, Li Nian stroked the muscle patches on his hand.
I was secretly glad that I debuted at IG and took precautions early. If a player whose career is already short gets injured, it would be really doomed.
The commentary is provided by Rita, Changmao and Shenchao.
"Welcome to day one of the 2017 League of Legends All-Stars, LPL vs. NA LCS"
After a brief oral broadcast by the three commentators.
Rita, who just won the 'Best Commentator of the Year' award, has a loud voice. She has changed from being submissive when she first debuted, and takes over the conversation to show her strength.
"Let's get the footage to the scene."
The five players held their peripherals and walked through the long waiting passage. This is the venue for the regular season of the North American Division of LCS. Photos of previous LCS champions holding trophies hang on the surrounding walls.
As a star player, the big brother with his iconic chest-hugging expression stood out in the C position and stood out.
It can only be said that he is worthy of being called the North American Fantasy God.
TSM's invincibility in training matches this year has also made major competition areas around the world realize that training matches cannot be too serious.
in particular.
The illusion in the league civil war is useless. In the World Championship, his impression will be shattered if he pulls his hips. He will also be labeled as a weakling in the competition.
That's why Senior Brother Huanshen could only watch the excitement in the studio this time. Sneaky, the c9 women's clothing boss who once reached the semi-finals in the World Championship and was known as the light of North America, took over the baton.
Even if he is in the same division, he will not show mercy. Anyway, his support rate for the All-Stars this time is not high, and the life and death of other teams has nothing to do with him.
As the senior brother of a famous dog player, he first talked about lpl as a guest, "Not to mention the top and jungle, just the bottom lane will be defeated by Uzi. This is a game without any suspense."
He seemed to see the cross-dressing master covered in gauze, revealing his iconic front teeth towards the studio camera.
The other two English-language official commentators fired map cannons and scolded all the players in the LPL division.
To sum it up, just two words.
Release water.
After all, as the host region, we shouldn’t lose too badly.
Different from previous opening ceremonies, all contestants from the eight competition regions were disrupted and scattered in various venues. Several hosts led the 40 contestants onto the stage.
After arriving, everyone looked for the underground signs and stood according to the competition area.
"The following is from lpl all stars!" The host probably went to Korea specifically to consult the Roaring Emperor, and the last note was so loud that it almost made him suffocate.
"Top order, theshy!"
He still has his trademark shy smile, and people who are not familiar with him would think that he is a young player who only plays tank tanks and loves to develop.
"Kill them all when the game starts," theshy saw fans' pranks while surfing the Internet, and he didn't forget to make a joke at this time.
"Fly!"
The audience in the stands was well prepared, and a deafening roar of cheers broke out along with Li Nian ID.
His extremely high popularity made him seem a little confused.
Man, since when did you become so famous?
It was early morning in China, and many spectators who had stayed up all night to become immortals couldn't help but be stunned by the sudden shouting.
Earthquake?
"We finally have a player in our division who has gone abroad."
"Brother Zuizi is really very wrong this year, which is in huge contrast to Severn's submissiveness."
"As the old saying goes, you can learn from history and learn from it. This is using my factory director as a negative example to learn from!"
"There is no more love. The successor to our factory has run away from home."
"Mid laner, xiye!"
Wangzi is not well-known and has only participated in a handful of international competitions. However, there are some viewers who remember him well. They vaguely remember the round-faced boy who single-handedly killed Faker in the MSI.
He also welcomed his arrival with enthusiastic applause.
"ADCarry, uzi!"
Uzi waved hello to the audience with a helpless smile. Although he repeatedly emphasized that the ID should be pronounced separately, external websites introduced that he always used a submachine gun.
"I changed my ID, but when I tried to change it again, it showed that it was occupied by someone else. Brother Zuizi, you are responsible!"
Uzi turned sideways and whispered.
——After visiting the Riot headquarters, Uzi changed his ID on a whim to 'Jian Hao Yasuo Zero Bar Ten Fuck Me'.
But when he felt satisfied, he wanted to change his original ID back, but he couldn't change it back.
The most irritating thing is.
The friend whose nickname ID was occupied has also added him as a friend. If you want to change the nickname back, you must v him at least 88888.
Uzi became enthusiastic on the spot. He took the peripheral gift from Vincent - Galen's Great Sword and chased Li Nian fiercely.
"It's not a big problem, as long as the stadium can be used."
Uzi had no choice but to turn his attention back to the host who was introducing the team members.
"Assist, Meiko!" Tian Tian, who had always been a man of few words, pushed up his glasses with a single finger like a glass, causing Ming Kai, who had gotten up early to deliver breakfast to his girlfriend, to curse repeatedly.
Not pretending will affect your grades, right?
Immediately afterwards, LCK was redefined as the second division, and huge cheers also sounded in the studio.
Senior brother is so unhappy, this audience is really difficult to lead.
The cheers from my own division were actually not as good as those from the other two divisions.
But it's true.
Originally, lck's top laner was supposed to be Khan. Many Korean viewers liked his lively personality.
Especially during the trash talk in the LCK Summer Split finals, Khan made a lot of nonsense, saying that he wanted SKT's two top laners to beat them together.
In fact.
And it did.
But it is a pity that due to the high seniority of Xuan Ming and the two seniors in the same team, and their long-term strength and performance are not bad, they also took the two spots in Longzhu.
In the end, Withercuvee was voted out as second place and participated in this All-Stars together with Peanut and Faker.
After introducing 40 team members, the host, who was not good at learning, was almost sent away. Fortunately, his hoarse voice made it difficult for him to maintain a high level of performance, which also saved his life.
"Brothers, how about I play Yasuo?" Uzi was the first to raise the topic when the players got on the machine.
Meiko counterattacked unceremoniously, saying like a regular group member, "Then I'll play bull head."
"Give Brother Zuizi a blind monk, and Brother Shy a stone boy."
Wangzi frowned, tilted his head and asked, "What about me?"
Meiko thought for a moment and gave a very pertinent comment, "Lulu, let Jane rush in and take care of herself."
Uzi held his forehead, showed an awkward but polite smile, and opened his mouth to start a fight, "Then 4 protect 1! If you can't protect me, I will kill you all."
Firefox specially changed her hair today. She put on headphones because she was afraid of messing up her hair. After tinkering for a long time, she finally decided to let the players choose.
With a sonorous sound, both sides loaded the match BP.
"The first ban of Blue Fang Na was given to Thresh," Changmao said with a smile, "The video of Meiko's debut interview is still fresh in my mind. He is good at Nami and Thresh."
The lpl on the red side blocked Zoe.
Just like Chun Li said, the 7.23 version used in the All-Star Game, Zoe also enjoyed the treatment of skateboard shoes in the World Championship.
"Na will move Varus out again," Shenchao prepared sufficient information for the new version. "Unlike the World Championship, Varus's playing style has changed in this version."
There are two main reasons.
The deformed version of the incense burner of s7 was hacked twice in the 7.22 and 7.23 versions, and it completely fell from the altar.
The attack speed gain of 20-35% has been cut to 10-30%; the magic damage gain on hits has been reduced from 20-35 to 5-20.
The result is in version 7.22
The incense burner continues to make waves and has not calmed down.
So in version 7.23, the designers realized the fundamental problem—the buff effect of the incense burner was removed and it no longer restored health.
Cutting on the main artery, the strength of the incense burner dropped, causing a complete change in the bottom lane ecology.
Originally, heroes who relied on basic attacks such as Xiao Pao, Big Mouth, and Rat were completely relegated to the cold palace. As for Xia, she was temporarily wandering outside the cold palace due to her heroic characteristics.
Just wait for Shiro to open Jinkou, and then she can go to the cold palace to go to the Legend of Zhen Huan with her Jimei.
The second reason is because of talent changes.
That is the Arcane Comet Alliance! As long as the hero can trigger the comet, he is the real father.
The most direct consequence of the flood of comets and the fall of the incense burner from the altar is that the selection rate of strong-open hard assists has been increasing steadily.
This is very good, Sister Li.
The talent of Comet is essentially a consumption talent, and its effectiveness can be maximized only when paired with poke-type heroes.
The hero Verus is, so far, one of the most successful bottom lane shooter heroes produced by Riot Games.
In the early stage of S7, the tool core, the strengthening of armor-piercing armor, combined with his Q-piercing arrow and later-stage R stable control, made him a well-deserved darling of the version.
When it comes to the incense burner version, especially in the world, the rise of the incense burner has made Verus the favorite of the version.
until now
Verus has become one of the beneficiaries again. Comet cooperates with eq to provide him with super strong laning consumption ability, and the intensity is instantly increased by more than one level.
As for Ashe, who hasn’t played for a long time.
It is estimated that the cold war between the founder Tryndamere and his wife Ashe has led to the heroic characters in the game being implicated.
When will Ashe be able to play?
It means that the relationship between the two has improved.
"The red side wants to ban too many heroes. The lpl side will block Ornn first." Changmao's prophetic commentary and analysis made the audience who got up early to watch the game understand.
After this hero was taken out by theshy in the finals, an irreversible bug occurred.
——After killing Ornn, the words 'Try to connect automatically' will appear for players in other games.
After Riot was urgently repaired, the 'Mordekaiser' incident occurred again - after killing Ornn with Tetsuo's ultimate move, he blew up the house again.
Subsequently, Ornn is also disabled in the world by default.
Otherwise, with the "world's number one Ornn" Emperor, it is estimated that rng will be able to lift rng to the position of world champion.
It's a pity that fate plays tricks on people.
Until the version bug was fixed, Ornn was strengthened a total of four times from version 7.17 to the current version in the All-Star Game.
Even if Li Nian looked at it from the perspective of a time traveler, he felt that it was too strong.
As long as Chun-Li puts half of the enhancements against Ornn into Blade Girl, her wife Will of the Blade won't be so miserable that she can't even compete in the game.
So he has put the redo on the agenda.
"The last ban spot in the first round was given to a female gunner," Rita turned into a dog and said, "It seems like she wanted Sneaky to feel more comfortable online."
When Firefox saw the opponent's intention, he immediately blocked Tam, the most protective type.
The principle is very simple.
With a strong support in charge, if the opponent wants to be aggressive in the bottom lane, they can choose Jhin who doesn't know Uzi and the world will be destroyed.
After Shenchao explained the World Championship, he still vividly remembered the situation of constantly blocking the jungle position last month. Now that there are 6 ban positions, none of them are aimed at Li Nian.
He opened his mouth and explained, "There are too many heroes that need to be blocked in other positions. In addition, the jungle position mainly focuses on strong heroes. The hero pool of Brother Zuizi may be somewhat different from the version."
Changmao also nodded, "The wild core hero can't be used at all. It just depends on whether he can adjust his condition in time."
Version changes.
The impact of the jungle position is definitely greater than other positions!
Unlike online players who can adapt to the version through operations, jungle players often have style and ideas that determine their playing style.
The change of version is destined to change the player's playing style.
Give me a chestnut.
King Ning cannot play the wild-core version; Casa cannot play the carnivore wild version; Xiangguo cannot play the map-controlled version.
These all subtly affect the jungler's adaptability to the version. Failure to change means being replaced.
Strange phenomena are often seen.
The year before, it was known as the "World's No. 1 Wild", but as soon as the version changed, people criticized it for not knowing anything and playing like a bastard.
'One generation of versions, one generation of gods' is indeed a long-term and fatal problem for junglers.
"There are Jace, Xerath and ez out there," Changmao analyzed. "It depends on which hero Na will grab first."
"I think it might be better to grab ez first," Rita tried to show her understanding of the game. "Sneaky will definitely be able to withstand pressure when playing Uzi in the bottom lane."
The subsequent selection of the na division also proved this point, locking in Yin Zeriel.
Relying on Li Nian's favorite theft omen, Xiao Huangmao became a stable version of the T1 shooter. The Q skill, which counts as a special effect for basic attacks, can steal things from 1,000 yards away.
Omen of Stealing has made ez develop a notch faster, and the blue ez formation period of Magic Cut + Ice Fist will also come earlier, which is equivalent to extending Ezreal's mid-term strong stage in disguise.
The appearance rate and winning rate will naturally increase.
Rita blushed. She didn't expect that her strength had improved after winning the best commentator, and she became even more excited.
"It's really good. When the powerful ADC is banned, Uzi's only option is Ice!"
The analysis of the two commentators was very good, but the priority of Ice was not high. Firefox locked Jace and Xerath in the middle and top.
Tell the truth
With theshy, Jace's manpower, Firefox locked onto Piltover's second battalion commander without hesitation.
Unlike the World Championship, you always have to occupy a ban position.
That’s outrageous!
As for Xerath's long hands and the enhancement of his W skill in version 7.23, his clearing ability and consumption ability in the middle continue to increase.
"Get the yellow chicken." Bilson looked at his coach.
In addition to Xerath, the only powerful mid laners in the middle are Grasshopper and Yellow Chicken. Grasshopper can cope with a strong lineup, but facing the mid-top composed of Jayce and Xerath, he seems a bit stupid.
Yellow Chicken's current strength is quite high. It is the enhancement of the version that allows him to become the emperor of Furima again. In addition, the sand soldiers can remotely trigger comets, both consumption and burst have been raised to a higher level.
Mike Ynang decisively locked down the prince, ensuring the team's ability to start a team.
"North America got the yellow chicken and the prince's midfielder. In this way, looking at the lpl's last choice, it should be given."
As soon as Shenchao finished speaking, he saw Han Bing locked on Wangzi's locking frame.
In the second round of BP, as always for other positions that were not selected by both sides, LPL banned Gnar and Shen, two excellent single belt options, while North America blocked Pig Girl and female tank.
"Li Nian, what hero do you want to get?" After these few days of training, Firefox had already discovered the fantastic ideas in this player's head.
In addition, like Mafa, he respects the players' choices, so he completely lets it go.
Li Nianxian glanced at his own lineup and raised the corners of his mouth.
Armored dragon turtle, locked!
Uzi's hero selection box didn't even flash a second time, it was almost like a second lock.
The audience in the studio immediately burst into exaggerated "Oh" sounds. This choice was beyond everyone's expectations!
Rita was not as surprised as the other two commentators. Instead, she immediately took up the topic, "Dragon Turtle is actually quite powerful and domineering after the rune revision."
At this point, she stopped.
Domestic viewers who watched the live broadcast wanted to hear her follow-up explanation, but the topic had already been taken over by Shenchao, and they could not hear her continue talking.
"To tell you the truth, where is the Dragon Turtle Haki? If you can't tell me, I'll ask the brothers to charge you away!"
"Listening to your words is better than just one word."
"If you don't understand the game, just go to Channel 2. It sounds really uncomfortable."
"I'll go! I just turned on the live broadcast and saw my dragon turtle! I'll go get our dragon turtle right now, my friend!"
"Dragon Turtle, let me meet you, Lord!"
While making huge waves on the Internet, Shenchao used accurate data to explain why Dragon Turtle can enter the professional arena.
After the new runes appeared in 7.22, the chemical reaction between Dragon Turtle and the cornerstone runes "Aftershock" allowed him to roam the jungle.
The appearance rate has soared, from 3.2% before the emergence of the new runes, to 7.74%, reaching the top of the jungle hero selection.
In version 7.23, Riot reduced Dragon Turtle’s basic armor from 40 points to 36 points, but this had minimal impact. Dragon Turtle still dominates the wild area, and its winning rate remains in the top three.
Changmao smiled and said, "Brother Zuizi is really eclectic and brings ranked heroes to the professional arena. Maybe everyone can look forward to his performance."
With the lessons learned from the World Championship, everyone knows Li Nian’s ability to understand the version.
perhaps
It will really provide other teams with new ideas to deal with the new season.
But he didn't say anything further. He watched North America select the female tank and Dashu, and turned to analyze the opponent's lineup.
"The blue side's two single lanes in the middle and top all have hard control, and their ability to cooperate with the jungler is quite strong. The prince in this round can be grabbed at will!"
After communicating with his teammates and coaches, Meiko finally locked in Bronn to ensure his bottom lane alignment.
The lineups of both sides have been determined.
Blue side: top laner Dashu, jungler prince, mid laner yellow chicken, bottom lane ez+female tank.
Red side LPL: top laner Jayce, jungler Dragon Turtle, mid laner Xerath, bottom lane Ice + Braum.
"In terms of lineup, our lpl here prefers poke consumption, while North America prefers strong openings," Shenchao analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of both sides' lineups. "Then this game will depend on how much advantage Brother Zuizi can get in the early stage, and how much advantage he can get in the later stage." Form a double front row with Braum."
Li Nian is quickly deploying the runes. After re-adapting to the runes from his previous life, he feels happier now.
No matter how the version adjusts the talents, the values are much more abnormal than those in the previous life, and there are many ways for him to choose from.
Including dragon turtles.
Instead of regular aftershocks, he
Predator - Taste of Blood - Zombie Guard - Ruthless Hunter, with the witchcraft's agility + water walking as its secondary system.
This set of runes highlights a fast running speed, the active acceleration effect of the predator after it comes out of the straw sandals, and the ruthless hunter's out-of-combat movement speed plus two secondary runes that increase the movement speed.
Li Nian plans to be a reporter in Hong Kong.
especially.
In version 7.23, Riot realized that the 50-20 Thunder talent of the same Domination system had actually become the best choice, leaving the other two brothers alone.
The original cooldown time of the predator was changed from 180-120 to 150-100 seconds.
the most important is
Newly added additional effects!
After being interrupted, 50% of the cooling time will be returned!
For dragon turtles that need to rely on movement speed to get close.
Punishable and reliable.
——The increased 45% movement speed bonus is equivalent to the running speed bonus of sprinting at level 18. After getting out of the straw sandals, it takes 22 seconds to move from the base to the top outer tower, and it only takes 15 seconds to activate the predator.
The dragon turtle and the three heroes Centaur, Udyr, and Olaf have a basic movement speed of 345, which can reach 370 after taking out the straw sandals.
With the addition of water walking, you can attack the lane from a long distance. By the time the opponent spots the wolf's head, it's already too late to retreat.
Coupled with the high burst of the online hero, he can dream back to the 1980s and experience the joy of black and white TV before the control ends.
This is still in the s8 version pre-season.
Players, including professional teams, did not realize the changes that the Predator brought to the game.
"The countdown is over and the barrage system will be reopened."
"Current properties panel:"
"Reaction: 90"
"Hand speed: 90"
"Prediction: 90"
"Consciousness: 90"
"Calculate: 90"
"Version understood: 94"
"Experience value: 0/100"
"Remaining attribute points: 6 points. Every 3 attribute points can be upgraded once, and you will get 1 bonus point."
"Newly enabled function: Each game can send barrages once."
The sudden attack of system messages made Li Nian's head feel a little swollen, and he was confused and ecstatic.
The system heard his cry and successfully opened the dialogue mode with the barrage.
Even though it’s only 1 per game, it’s better than nothing!
All the remaining 6 attribute points were added to the consciousness, and the success became 92 points, one step closer to breaking the 100 mark.
"Brother Zuizi took the meat, my youth is over."
"If Dragon Turtle can't beat me, I'll just rank the All-Stars."
"Let's talk about it. It doesn't matter whether Brother Zuizi performs well or not. After all, both sides have advantages. As for Xiye, I just let it go."
"It's good to watch games, don't be picky."
Before loading into Summoner's Rift, the audience in the stands started cheering anxiously. The offseason is also a torture for this group of e-sports enthusiasts.
They can't wait to see the showdown between the home team and the lpl, and especially want to see whether the newly promoted North American wild king Mike Yaung can resist the rhythm of Brother Mouzi.
Winning or losing is a waste of time. Anyway, North America has lost in the past two years. The proud C9 team was just massacred in the World Championship.
The executioner happens to be the opponent's upper field!
Sneaky's teeth are broken, and he will definitely take revenge!
Li Nian controlled the golden-armored dragon turtle to spin in the spring water and flexed his wrists. He had not played a formal game for a month and needed to get familiar with the rhythm.
Then let them see it
Lightspeed Dragon Turtle Man!
