EDG base.
"Haoxuan, I feel good lately," the factory director squeezed Karsa's shoulder, "Tomorrow we will face off against the black fan leader!"
On March 19th, the whole team was in full preparation for the game against IG. Under the mobilization of coach Nofo and the factory director, they dug out the previous regular videos and studied them several times.
The battle for the top spot in the East and West is inevitable!
Ed Zhu personally stated that he must go all out to win.
Don’t fight for the steamed buns!
Since the new lineup was established.
The strong strength of Khan and Karsa allowed edg to be invincible in the first 13 games and have not lost a single game so far.
"It's not a big problem." Karsa took off his headphones, turned around in the ergonomic chair and looked at his idol, "In terms of chart control alone, I am confident that I can surpass Li Nian."
The factory director tilted his lips and nodded.
The strength of the graphics-controlling jungler is minimally affected by the version. Its role in the battle situation is more to help the team make decisions and operations.
With the hunger strike jungle version coming to an end, map control has become the biggest beneficiary of the version.
As for version heroes
Karsa has no shortage of talent and strength, the only thing he has to overcome is getting rid of the 'world is focused on me' mentality.
But that's it.
Since the factory director retired to the second line and the former eldest prince "Ai Loli" left the team, Karsa took over and was also nicknamed the "second prince" by the stars.
With the halo around me, I naturally bear a lot of pressure on my shoulders.
There will inevitably be some changes in mentality.
You can't be as relaxed and comfortable as you were with Flash Wolf.
"Li Nian has been very low-key lately," the factory director picked up the raccoon and stroked its head. "You could see him in every major forum last year, but now he seems to have shriveled up."
"It's probably a big game of chess."
Meiko smiled and walked closer to the two of them, "Let's catch the second level again tomorrow so that Yu Wenbo can experience the joy of Uzi."
"I will prove who is the best jungler in the world!"
Karsa glanced at the factory director from the corner of his eye and quietly moved his chair out - for fear of being blocked by someone.
"You two." The factory director took a deep breath, a little confused by the behavior of his teammate 'Heizi', "I'll shoot each one later."
Nofa pushed open the door of the training room and saw that everyone was here, so he clapped his hands and summoned the team members to assemble.
"We will go all out tomorrow!"
He stood next to the 'Summoner's Rift map for review' with a serious look on his face, tapping on the small blackboard, "IG focuses on the early and mid-game. If we want to win, we must avoid their familiar playstyle."
Karsa nodded seriously.
The head coach on the stage continued to make arrangements, and the Korean translator beside him accurately reached the ears of the players, "The main tactic tomorrow is to play in the late game."
He looked at Karsa, "Your task is to lock the opposite Fly's position so that he cannot connect the team together."
Hearing this, Karsa frowned unconsciously.
Target Li Nian?
Easier said than done!
Putting aside the strong laning strength of Zhongshang, Li Nian's almost abnormal consciousness alone gave Karsa a headache.
——Always able to find a breaking point, play a wave of miracles, and drag the entire battle into ig's rhythm.
Since the regular season, Li Nian's playing style has changed visibly, and the wild core C position has become a standard carnivorous style of play.
The rhythm band takes off.
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."
Nofa noticed the change in the expressions on the team members' faces and said softly, "Use your strengths and abandon worldly thoughts."
The factory director patted Karsa on the back and said, "Relax, we have already got the tickets for the playoffs."
Flounder iboy, as the younger brother in the team, also stepped forward to comfort the big brother, "Tomorrow I will hit Yu Wenbo's head big!"
Karsa pursed her lips and nodded heavily.
Although he was beaten three times in the All-Star Game, in the LPL training matches, whether it was rhythm or other aspects, he did not lose to Li Nian at all.
He didn't even grab his pigtails and beat him up.
What are you afraid of! If you don't accept it, do it!
"Dong He," coach Nofa looked at the increasingly rounded Khan, "your chance for revenge has come."
Khan touched his belly. As a "fun man", he quickly integrated into the culture of the edg team.
In edg's powerful Chinese learning class, my spoken Chinese improves rapidly, and I can easily use everyday curse words.
And in the game.
The bo3 in the first 13 games fully demonstrated his strong strength in last year's "World First", and once dominated the top lane of lpl.
He is bound to kick the bastard top laner off the stage of history.
fortunately
Khan has never experienced the edg of s5, s6 and s7, otherwise he would definitely cry and regret why he signed the contract with the 'big tree' position in the first place.
Fortunately he didn't give up.
the reason is simple.
The tactical ideas of edg come from the two veterans of the team, Abramovich and the factory director, plus the strength of alpaca deft and meiko to dominate the lpl bottom lane during the s5 period.
and
The popularity of the Three Illusion Gods - Big Tree, Titan and Poppy in the top lane also indirectly establishes that EDG's tactical thinking must be to protect the bottom lane.
However, they are different from rng's four-guarantee-one strategy.
The edg strategy is dual-core, and the strength of the younger brother Scout is enough to support their output capabilities in the early, middle and late stages.
"Don't worry, coach, I will definitely get back what I lost last year!" Khan said with high morale and a serious look on his face.
But
Coupled with his chubby face, it really made people unable to be serious, but instead he ushered in a burst of heart-warming laughter.
"Siba."
khan rolled his head and smiled innocently.
"Coach, can I pick a more aggressive hero tomorrow?" Scout raised his hand and asked. He was fully prepared for tomorrow's game.
Nofa looked at Scout meaningfully.
Nod slowly.
He understands in his heart.
The scout's goal is not to target ig's starting players.
But he wanted to prove to the former SKT coach KKoma that his talent and strength are not inferior to Lee Sang Hyuk.
As for the bottom duo, nofa is very satisfied with Meiko's performance this season. His command and team decision-making skills are becoming more and more mature.
Officially took over the baton from the factory director.
The only thing that gave him a headache.
He is iboy, the youngest member of the team!
This kid has no shortage of talent.
But he is a bit arrogant, has no organization and discipline, and often makes some puzzling operations.
——Seize the opportunity to flash, and become a breakthrough point for the opponent when there is no flash available in key resource team battles.
"Xiao Zhao, your task tomorrow is very simple." Nofa patted iboy on the shoulder, "Follow the command and don't do dangerous operations."
"okok."
iboy nodded seriously, and the debate between him and Jack on who was the genius has never been concluded.
The first collision of two genius adcs!
Not only are edg and ig carefully preparing for tomorrow's game, Tengjing is devoting resources to build momentum for tomorrow's game.
Major forums, post bars and Weibo are very popular.
"Bold prediction: 2:1, edg wins!"
"The intensity of the four lines is all full, fast forward to 7 o'clock on the 19th!"
"Brother Zuizi is probably going to be in trouble. The overall integrity of EDG is obviously better than that of IG, and Jack is really easy to die suddenly."
"7777777!"
'Gouzi' and 'Starch' were arguing endlessly on the Internet, but they didn't expect that Huang Za would come to disrupt the situation.
A fan with an RNG avatar on his head was still resisting, saying, "There are really no piggies who think that EDG can beat IG."
Some edg fans immediately counterattacked, "What are you barking at?" Will you still be able to scream after IG blows up rng in two weeks? Returning the sword, the top four are really shameless. '
Maybe you can actually laugh.
The guy with the rng icon on his head is someone
They are proficient in cross-dressing fishing and can easily make the pigs in the event live broadcast room verbally criticize rng.
The enraged rng fans went crazy@private soldier Lee Sang Hyuk, "I'm laughing to death. The top eight stink every year. Last year, they made a breakthrough in team history. The top eight are worthy of mocking the top four? Ming Kai has never touched the semi-finals floor in his life. , made the brothers smile."
The "pig-dog war" spreads in the anti-bar in another form.
Li Nian, who was sitting in front of the computer watching the battle, quietly ate potato chips, "Navy AD is indeed worthy of its name, Jack!"
Jack, who was still typing on the keyboard, quickly pressed Enter, and the post 'Private Lee Sang Hyuk' was prominently displayed at the top of the computer screen.
He looked at Li Nian energetically and smiled, "Do you understand the value of cheating?"
"Yeah!"
Li Nian spread his hands and said, "Be careful and I'll catch Karsa at Level 2 tomorrow!"
Suddenly, Jack clicked his tongue.
'Your post has been deleted by the server. '
"It's three more days. It's disgusting to have a baby, isn't it?"
Jack complained that since the title of 'little bar owner' was taken off, he was often in danger of having his posts deleted.
So he chose to change his number and reconnect.
There are so many buddy accounts that you can’t even imagine!
Li Nian smashed his mouth and silently looked forward to the friends who were fished in the post bar - I hope they are okay.
For ig, the pressure on their shoulders is also not small.
Especially Li Nian.
There are too many core players in the team, so in every game, the main route must be clearly defined, either to capture it or to capture it.
As for the middle road
The rookie has strong suppressive power and has an outstanding ability to feed back to the jungle. If Li Nian wants to play comfortably, he must move in the middle.
And most importantly.
He has a reason why he can't lose!
The dream about Incheon drove him to train hard, so every day besides the training matches, he was doing Ranking day after day.
Finally got rid of the title of 'Diamond Emperor' and entered the top 50 in Korean server.
also.
I made an appointment with my parents to meet in Incheon years ago!
Well.
The commentary is Doll, Miller and Remember.
"Welcome to the 2018 LPL Spring Split live broadcast, ig versus edg!"
The baby on the commentary table said loudly that Tengjing had tried its best to promote this game. People who didn't know it thought the spring finals started early.
In normal bo3 games during the regular season, there will only be two commentators in the commentary booth, and only extremely important games can have three commentators.
and
This trio is considered the most luxurious commentary lineup of Tengjing in 2018, and the Supermarket Plaza is packed with seats.
The audience in the audience waved support banners and light sticks, and many female fans held up tablets and wrote their ardent hopes for the players in scrolling letters.
lpl fans dominate the world.
Starch and the dog sons each occupied a small half, and many of them were piglets. Even if Mingkai didn't get the chance to start, they still waited tirelessly for the day when the factory director came to power.
Maybe, this is a true fan.
Under the quick words of Wa Wa, he recited the sponsor's brand very skillfully. He spoke so fast that even Mr. Hua wanted to like it.
As the BP coach of IG, Mafa flipped a coin with Nofa and got the priority to choose the side.
The spring regular season has entered a point-grabbing battle, and the tactical system and version trends are clearly laid out in front of the major teams.
mafa decisively won the blue side.
Before the game
The director will put the 'team data comparison' and 'starting players versus kda' on the big screen.
ig's 'Jungle Control Rate', including 'Team Win Rate', 'Team KDA', 'Economy per Point' and 'Average Victory Time' all rank first in the league.
but
As for KDA, Li Nian and Rookie ranked first in a single position.
Li Nian firmly occupies the top spot with 5.24, while Rookie has more solo kills in the matchup and ranks first among the mid-units with 5.64.
"Ah Shui: What is kda? Can it be eaten?"
"4.16 ranked 12th, Ah Shui, what are you doing?"
"I'm laughing so hard. Brother Shuizi really just wasted all his kda!"
After reading the barrage of information, Li Nian turned his head to look at Jack and said jokingly, "Ah Shui, I heard that you are ranked last in the KDA League?"
Jack frowned and moved the microphone to his mouth, "Do you know how bloody the KDA reflection game is? Don't you know how intense the bottom lane is?"
"Really?" Zui said again for Baolan, "But why do you always die suddenly in team battles?"
"KDA is useless! I don't care, brother," Jack's face was not red, his heart was not beating, "If you win the game, you will win!"
While the players were chatting, the coach also clarified the second ban position.
"IG takes the lead in putting Zoe in the ban position!" Mafa ordered theshy, "This powerful hero will be used by several top LPL mid laners, but there are exceptions."
In the ig tactical system.
Zoe, who was slashed twice in a row, is not a high priority, and the tactical system developed around her has a less than ideal winning rate in training matches.
and
Scout Zoe's proficiency is no less than Rookie. Releasing it hastily will not only increase the risk of confrontation in the middle, but also affect the integrity of your own BP.
Nofa blocks the prince who has strong rhythm ability in the early and mid-term, limiting Li Nian's early performance.
ig's second ban gave meiko's Thresh; and nofa once again banned Li Nian's Qinggang Shadow, which played extremely well.
Nofa believes that this hero can go to the jungle, and even set off a wave of mid laner Qinggangying in the Korean server.
With the ability of ig's midfielder and jungler, releasing it for swing would simply destroy the fairness of BP.
"In the last ban position of the first round, ig banned the captain!"
The captain of theshy is really a bit green.
After being single-killed by the light of the top laner, when he went to Chongqing to play against the Snakes at home, he was single-killed again by Qinggangying of the Holy Spear.
He could never control his excitement and point out people.
On the other hand, Khan made the captain his signature hero and was locked into the ban position by all major teams.
With a burst of jubilation from the audience at Supermarket Square, the blind monk was blocked from the EDG blocking position on the big screen.
There was an explosion in the event live broadcast room.
"3ban jungler? Targeting my mouth brother again!"
"Aoun won't even ban him? Well, we have to force him to do BP, right?"
"Is the sea of heroes a joke? You can hit the jungle with any hero you want, so will we still see the ez massacre show?"
"Don't think about it. After the trigger mechanism of 'Rune Broadsword' is cut off, ez jungler will give points to the opponent."
After taking a sip of ice coke, Li Nian was still watching the barrage.
Mafa walked up behind Li Nian very skillfully, "Do you want to take the jungler first? They may ban him 5 times in the second round."
Li Nian thought for a moment and shook his head, "Let's get it for them first. I still have heroes to use."
Mafa nodded and grabbed Ornn first.
Rookie clasped his fingers with a hint of confidence on his face. Facing an opponent like Scout was worthy of all his efforts.
Theshy who plays with meat is not very happy.
Am I weaker than my opponent? Give me the choice of Ornn, Big Tree and Poppy, and let the opponent counter me with heroes!
Especially when facing Khan who is also an offensive top laner!
Mafa glanced at Jiang Chenglu who had lost his smile from the corner of his eye, and silently moved his steps to walk behind Rookie.
He has a soft personality and couldn't control theshy before he won the championship last year. What's more, in this version of 'strength is king', he can't control it even more.
It was KKoma who had to train theshy to be obedient.
Nofa is a little surprised, ig can choose meat on the road?
The sun comes out in the west?
But that's it.
Plans made yesterday cannot be changed at will.
"Edg directly played Xia Luo with his first and second hand!" Miller was not surprised. "It seems to be to improve iboy's lineup rate. After all, Xia Luo has a big move and is very capable of protecting himself in team battles."
iboy's face was relaxed, and he smiled like a 'flounder', "Tianye, now I can use flash at will!"
Meiko looked as if she was angry and said, "Stop barking!"
Mafa also knows that Edg wants to protect the bottom lane, so he will naturally not let his opponents get what they want. In the second and third picks in the first round, he won the current T1 combination of Verus and Braum. They can resist and fight, and their small-scale team battles are quite powerful. .
"Karsa, take the barrel." NOFA also knows that it is impossible to give EDG five mid- and late-game heroes. Someone must be responsible for buffering the team in the early and mid-term, and slowly transition to the mid- and late-game team battles.
Karsa nodded.
After the Prince, Blind Sin and Green Steel Shadow were banned, there were not many heroes available - Olaf and Nightmare will not be implemented until the next version.
"In this case, Brother Zizi only has Zach and Sister Zhu," Miller stared at the BP lineups of both sides, "Edg will probably be banned."
The hero Zac has a lot of control and a long ejection distance. As the 'Zac King', King Ning may be annoying, but it is just right for Li Nian.
“Didn’t take it”
The baby's screams were transmitted through the microphone into the venue, "Sure enough, EDG blocked Sister Pig and Zach in the second round!"
ig, on the other hand, banned Khan's Jess and Sword Princess.
According to common sense, with the hero pool that Khan has appeared in in the past, it is indeed very good to ban two offensive top laners.
but
Mafa also didn’t expect that he would be tricked by Nofa when he debuted as BP in S8.
really
edg is the god of eternal civil war!
"Edg took the troll!" The doll clicked, "Edg is so sure of himself!"
Troll counter-tank top laner, this was no secret in the era of the Three Illusion Gods - his ultimate move steals health and double resistance.
And hand Optimus Prime
To deal with Yang Meie's e-skill displacement, it also has a very good restraint effect, and its clearing ability and laning ability are not weak either.
KKoma in the lounge smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Facing a well-prepared EDG, even he may fall into the trap, but there are still two positions to choose from.
It depends on how mafa responds.
"Troll's words." Miller laughed, "IG's midfield picks Syndra and Olaf are pretty good."
As soon as he finished speaking, a silver-haired boy whom he hadn't seen for a long time appeared in Jack's hero selection box.
"Time Assassin, Ike!"
In the middle of the baby's exclamation, IG's 4th floor hero selection box flashed twice, and it was immediately confirmed.
Scout frowned.
He was a little confused as to whether Ekko was a jungler or a mid laner.
In addition to being proficient in two balls and one girl, the rookie is also very proficient in Ekko. Back then, his time assassin also single-handedly killed the popular Fat General.
He wanted to choose Syndra
But the younger brother knew very well that when Ekko restrained Syndra, as long as he was betrayed, it would be a free exchange of blood, and it would be difficult for Syndra to fight back.
more importantly!
In version 8.2, Ekko's attack speed has been increased, making it easier to trigger his passive, and his ability to line up or clear the jungle has increased sharply.
Not only Souct is staring at the fifth-hand selection, but even Karsa is also watching the last-hand hero selection box.
Brother Zuizi has never seen him use Ekko in the jungle?
"IG helped Rookie get the clockwork on the fifth floor!" Miller exclaimed, "Then Ike will definitely be moved to the jungle position!"
"hiss"
Nofa hissed lightly, and after seeing Ekko being shaken to the jungle, he decisively helped Scout take down Syndra, who was feeling hot in his hand!
Remember to look at the ten heroes that both sides have locked.
Blue square ig: top laner Ornn, jungler Ekko, mid laner Clockwork, bottom lane Verus + Braum.
Red square edg: Troll in the top lane, Barrel in the jungle, Syndra in the mid lane, and Xia Luo in the bottom lane.
He frowned tightly, "Is this lineup of ig too late? The entire top half has no line rights. In the early stage, Ekko can only rely on Verus and Bronn."
"This is truly the ultimate in pressure resistance." Miller also felt that it was a bit outrageous, but he couldn't say much at this time. "IG's lineup will enter its strong period as long as it lasts 30 minutes."
But the problem is
Can ig really adapt to this late stage lineup?
Even nofa didn't expect that he had worked so hard to study ig's hero style choices, but when the game started, his pants were all taken off.
Just show this to them?
If you ig know how to play the late stage, you can take it!
The barrage masters began to express their opinions.
"Brother Shy is such a powerful offensive top laner, why don't you just use a sheep to mess with him?"
"I'm convinced. I covered the team name and thought the one on the right was IG."
"It's another bladder game, but I want to see Brother Zuizi's Ike happy."
"Ike, my Ike!"
While Li Nian was watching the barrage.
The system sent a message.
'The barrage task is completed, and you will get '+3' attribute value. '
'Current panel properties. '
'Reaction: 90"
"Hand speed: 90"
"Prediction: 90"
"Awareness: 100"
"Calculate: 90"
"Version understanding: 94"
'Experience value: 39/100'
Allocate all the accumulated 15 attribute points to hand speed, and finally it became 95 attribute points, one step closer to Yibo.
Jack looked at the screen that was about to load Summoner's Rift, with a smile on his face and his fingers gently stroking the mouse.
"You should be more stable in this game," Mafa is still teaching earnestly, "we need your late output."
Jack nodded happily, "Leave it to me."
Just like what the barrage said.
ig's midfielder and upper midfielder's early combat capabilities are not strong. Ekko will also be pushed into the jungle by Barrel and Syndra indefinitely. Apart from having some lane rights in the bottom lane, there is nothing else he can do.
Li Nian blinked and smiled, "Don't flash forward with the three-piece suit, just use Verus to hit three critical hits!"
Baolan sneered, "Don't tell me, Ah Shui is really capable of doing such a thing, even ten cows can't be pulled back."
"So, you understand me very well? Mr. Lan." Jack adjusted his sitting posture and pursed his lips, "I hope you won't give me the 'Bingmen Fried Rice'."
The other three teammates laughed, and even the female referee behind him avoided the camera and laughed.
"You can't make it, right?" Blush flushed on Baolan's fair face, "I'll eat you up when I get in!"
"Princess Blue, do you want to die?" If there weren't cameras around, Jack would definitely have a real-life PK with Bao Lan.
The bot laner must decide whether his surname is Wang or Yu today!
"Next, I will not die for once and become a god!"
Baolan tilted his lips and confidently explained his ultimate understanding of the game - an auxiliary personal control show.
"Fuck! Don't mess with me."
Li Nian held his tongue and watched Summoner's Rift appear in front of him in disbelief.
