"In the next game, IG's priority is to choose sides," head coach Hiari has been chattering since the kz players returned to the lounge. "The next game will be difficult."
He looked at the unconscious top laner who was hammered next to him.
He patted the notebook hard, trying to make some noise, trying to wake up Ray who was still immersed in the game.
Hiari no longer wants to talk about tactics at this time. Finding a way to solve the morale problem of the players is the top priority, otherwise they will be more miserable than the other players later.
E-sports players who have lost their fighting spirit are no different from salted fish.
For the Korean team.
They have excellent professional qualities and can adjust their mentality quickly.
After all, the game suffered a serious defeat at this time.
There is still a faint hope of giving it a try.
"Don't be decadent, don't be depressed! The outcome of the game has not been determined yet!" He turned up the volume, trying to imitate the chicken soup method to encourage the players.
"Even if we are behind 0:2, isn't there still a chance for 2 to chase 3?" Hiair tried his best to let the emotion in his voice reach the hearts of each team member, "We just need to win one set and put ig's arrogance behind us. Fight back!"
"If you can, chase two of them in a row! The unlucky one will be ig!"
Hiair understands in his heart.
In many years of competition, there has never been a precedent of two teams chasing three players.
But now they are all pushed to the edge of the cliff.
If you don't lift the knife, push back.
It’s really going to be gone.
also.
hiair is very clear.
ig has a fatal flaw.
But since last year's world, no one has forced ig into the last critical game of bo5.
So naturally everyone ignored this.
That is.
The Broiler's mentality was very poor in the fifth game, and it was easy to make fatal mistakes, which would lead to the team being brought down.
Hiair informed the team members of the information he already knew.
Little Peanut raised his eyebrows and gradually calmed down.
According to this logic, in fact, ig lost a game by self-destruction, so now it is a 1:2 record.
Win two games!
The team members looked at each other as if their fighting spirit had been drained, and they almost stood up and cheered.
Hiair looked at the increasingly confident expressions of the team members and felt that he had indeed learned the essence of chicken soup, so he continued to strike while the iron was hot.
"Don't forget why we came to Europe?"
"Don't forget that we have worked hard all spring. What do we want to prove?"
Everyone's breathing quickened.
The head coach's words seemed to stimulate the hearts of the players.
Even the heartbeat couldn't help but beat a little faster.
The msi championship trophy is the biggest goal of all professional teams in the past six months, and it is what all players want to get their hands on.
And their kz represents the last hope of the legendary division lck.
There are countless brothers and teams behind the support, and the fans raise their hands in encouragement.
It is true that lck does not have to worry about whether it has the first seed pool seat in the global finals like the North American division. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
lck failed in the World Championship last year, but their current strength is still among the leaders in all major competitions.
lz who hasn’t changed his name last year.
I originally thought I could double kill IG, the No. 3 seed in the LPL!
I didn't expect it in the end.
The one who was killed was actually himself.
The team members have studied the ig team countless times in the past six months, and even watched their entire game in the lpl spring finals.
I fully expect ig to get msi tickets.
now
coming!
The team that kz wanted to defeat the most was standing in front of them, looking down at them.
Want to fight!
The largest Rat King clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to come to him.
They folded their palms together, as if to communicate their strength.
"kingzone! fighting!"
The unique Korean English accent echoed in the team lounge.
——
Li Nian was lying on the sofa, exhausted from the previous chatter between the team.
Shiba Inu guy.
I guess I bought a book on how to practice ventriloquist one night.
At this time, he was actually able to quarrel with other scholars.
He quickly opened two cans of Red Bull and also opened a can of sparkling water in a green glass bottle.
Fill up the Red Bull, add a little sparkling water, cover it in a paper cup with the MSI logo, and shake it gently.
It turned out that he wanted a bottle of sugar-free Coke.
However, the recent continuous and high-intensity competition has really made Li Nian mentally tired.
He was even muttering in his heart that his fists were really not good.
After their MSI is over, the summer horse racing will begin soon, followed by the intercontinental competition and the Asian Games exhibition competition in a few days.
Tired, destroy it!
I originally wanted to drink a can of sugar-free Coke to keep my spirits up.
But this refreshing effect is really limited.
Li Nian was forced to make himself a cup of "24 sugar cubes" a high-intensity refreshing drink.
Take a sip and your heartbeat will be 120 in an instant!
To be honest, personally speaking, Li Nian is the kind of person who gets sleepy after drinking coffee and functional drinks.
Other team members also drank functional drinks without much improvement in on-the-spot reactions.
This is probably why Red Bull and Moclaw are not banned in e-sports competitions. Players can drink whatever they want.
There is no such thing as a urine test among tournament officials.
But Red Bull + sparkling water is different.
Even the Shiba Inu felt less sleepy after drinking it.
Li Nian held the cup in his hand, stood up, and walked towards the door of the lounge, "Can you leave?"
Vincent, who was guarding the door, went out to take a look. After receiving the signal from his colleagues, he retracted his arm in front of the crazy Shiba Inu.
"Come on!" He was still cheering ig on.
This sound merged with the sudden burst of cheers from the stands on all sides, making it hard to hear clearly.
However, this did not prevent everyone at ig from noticing Vincent's kindness through his mouth shape. Li Nian punched him and quickly stepped onto the stage.
The surrounding stands were packed with spectators. As the game progressed, the enthusiasm of the supporters of both sides did not subside, but showed signs of intensifying.
Especially when Li Nian appeared on the stage, he could feel the uncontrollable excitement and excitement of the audience.
"Welcome back to the 2018 Mid-Season Spectator Finals!" Wataba shouted loudly, "Now the lpl division representative ig leads kz 2:0!"
Miller brought up the topic first, "I just received news from the director that ig took the initiative to choose the red side in this round!"
Wa Wa frowned and expressed disapproval of Sister Li.
"Kz lost two games in a row on the red side. Why didn't ig, who had the initiative, choose the hot blue side?" Wawa looked puzzled.
The factory director expressed his understanding, "Normally speaking, the red side has an excellent counter position, which can effectively deal with kz's next hidden move!"
Miller shook his head.
"If this is the case, then their BP will be slightly easier to do." Miller said, "IG will have to bear the fixed red ban position, and the pressure on kz will drop sharply."
The doll responded repeatedly, feeling that what the two partners said made sense.
"I still hope that ig will continue to work hard in this game and win it directly for kz!" Miller, an older generation e-sports player who has experienced the ups and downs of the lpl division, is now a full-fledged ig fan, not to mention that he is still fighting outside, and he is mindless. That's it.
That's right.
Even if you lose health, it is not a big problem. If you are ganked to death, your head will be very dry. Even if you are pushed to the high ground, there is still a miracle group.
But Miller hopes that he will never have to use these tricks to deceive the audience. After all, they will fail over time.
Hiari's face was full of joy.
He never expected that he could win the blue square.
Isn’t this God helping me?
“The kz blue side banned Qinggang Ying first!” Miller analyzed. “Although the proficiency of heroes Ray and Peanut is not low, it is a bit of a loss to grab Camille in blue 1, so it is better to ban it first. .”
If it is only used for swinging in the jungle, it is of no value. With the hero pool of ig players, they will definitely retaliate with Vayne.
Although Little Peanut knows Camille, his proficiency is not high.
It's not that he doesn't want to practice this hero.
But in the team's tactical design, Camille's priority is not high.
After all, the selection of heroes in the professional arena does not only depend on the player's proficiency, but is closely related to the coach's tactics and lineup matching. Hiari was obviously not prepared.
It would be impossible for Little Peanut to single out Camille without the cooperation of his teammates.
kz can only ban him.
"IG chose to ban ez," Wawa said with a smile, "it's better to give Pray some respect."
Among Korean ADC players, ez is like a blind jungler to them, with basic skills.
They are all awesome!
In the second ban position, kz blocked Kalma, while kkoma sent the troll to the ban position.
Miller frowned slightly and said, "IG continues to target Little Peanut. Until now in the finals, he has taken at least half of the bans."
Peanut shook his fingers, helplessness written on his face.
Although he also wanted to achieve the professionalism of his friend Li Nian, he didn't want to get the preferential treatment of Fly's ban.
He doesn’t have an outrageous hero pool!
ig didn't want to disgust Peanut. After all, after banning the strong jungle position, the options left for its own players will be reduced accordingly.
We can't let Li Nian dig out new heroes every time.
Do it again and again.
When the time comes, I have to use Lucian as a jungler, which will really replicate the operation of the e-sports giant a few years ago.
kkoma tactics are being designed.
Originally, I wanted to continue banning Ray on the road.
After all, including Vayne, Ray has already used 11 heroes, which cannot be restricted at all; there is no need to target mid laner bdd, Rookie can completely suppress him.
There is no need to go down the road.
Except for the two t0 heroes ez and Kai'Sa.
The other heroes are all considered T1 heroes, and their performance is similar whether in laning or in team battles. It just depends on the team battle lineup to determine the effect within the team.
After much deliberation, it was easier to lock up the little peanut.
Fortunately, Han Wanghu was busy training recently and didn't come to chat with Li Nian.
Otherwise, you can guess ig's tactics from just a few words.
He was probably furious.
no way.
When it comes to banning people, he is a bright card.
Even if you know, there is nothing you can do.
Two kings + four 2s, and a straight hand. How to play this?
"The last bankz of the first round was given to Dashu, while ig blocked Thain."
KKoma has to guard against this.
The usage rate of the top laner for Thain is not high, and the proficiency is still open to question, so the effect may not be very good.
but
In the group stage, Ray used Thain to cause huge trouble to FNC. He engraved a single gene on DNA's EDG, allowing him to get the tank and rise instantly.
——In the tactical design, use Thain's body and the invasion of other team members to choose to steal buffs.
"Hey," Miller discovered Hua Dian, "This way, the Xia Luo combination will be released!"
"Kasha or Kasumi?"
Hiari was pacing behind the players' bench.
The Rat King thought for a moment and said, "Kasha, Kasha is more stable."
The price for this is to release Xia Luo.
Hiari carefully deduced the next BP of both sides. After all, although he could get the blue side as he wished, ig chose the red side with a lower winning rate in the key round.
It's definitely a scam.
In fact, the current Xia Luo has been weakened twice. The 8.6 version reduced the cooperative combat ability between Xia Luo; the 8.8 version cut off the piercing damage of feathers.
Today's Phoenix Legend is no longer as incomprehensible as the famous animation of Gouzi in the S7 World Championship. It is a strong bottom lane combination, but it is not comparable to ez.
On the other hand, Luo.
After Linghua ran out of lines, Zeng Yi began to carry alone.
As the owner of the champion skin, Sapphire Luo is still unique in the world.
"Okay, let's take Kaisha first." Hiari readily agreed.
"IG was very decisive. They locked the Xialuo combination in seconds!" Miller looked at the BP panel, "KZ took out the male gun and Ryze Peanut in the second and third picks. In this game, he finally got a strong hero that he was comfortable with. It was not easy. !”
kkoma stood behind the player bench and paced back and forth. Ryze on the opposite side was obviously in a swing position. kz would not determine his single lane split in the first round of BP.
After all, their strong fielding ability is the key to their fame.
"Li Nian, do you have any choice?" Kkoma didn't give Li Nian a choice and let him browse the sea of heroes on his own.
Li Nian thought for a moment.
There aren't many options in his hero pool to deal with male guns right now.
The big tree was banned.
There is no way to beat the blind monk. Olaf and Scorpion will be defeated in the face of the male gun. The wild core Death Song will probably not be able to hit even one Q in front of the male gun.
"Qian Jue!"
Only Kindred is left.
In the second round of BP, Hiari began to use theshy to target, and he banned Jace and Crow, top lane heroes with whom he was extremely proficient.
"This hand is good at banning kz!" The director's eyes lit up. "After banning crow, I chose Ryze before, and now the ap top laner is basically gone."
Currently, there is only one vampire top laner available as a mage, but this hero is absolutely countered by Ryze.
In other words, theshy cannot help the team supplement magic damage.
In this way, the Rookie in the mid lane does not need to choose a mid lane hero like Galio who is more functional, otherwise the team is likely to become a chopper team.
Although hiari was little-known before, he was still at a disadvantage against KKoma in this final, which was enough to prove his strength and that he can afford to be the lck spring championship.
"IG wanted to ban Bron, and then banned Tam." Without thinking, the doll said, "This is for Grilla!"
Both protective heroes have been disabled.
There are not many choices left for daddy Gloria.
"Ornn!" Miller looked at the sheep that appeared in Jack's hero selection box, "Brother Shy is going to team up in this round."
KKoma did not put the burden of the team on theshy.
This top top laner is perfect in both laning and team fights.
A little bit.
That is, even in the s13 season, he cannot become the absolute core of the team, but can only be treated as a secondary core.
the reason is simple.
Like Jack, he likes to die suddenly.
Sometimes they even don't listen to the coaching staff's tactical arrangements.
kkoma knows this very well, and has also figured out the situation within the ig team step by step.
Let Jiang Chenglu tank the top lane hero.
There are only advantages and no disadvantages!
In this game, when KKMA banned Braum, it was already paving the way for Ornn. After all, what Yang Meie fears most is Braum's security door.
The ultimate move will be confiscated directly!
After thinking about it, Gray Rath could only lock the Bull Head among the few heroes he had left.
The hero Alistar can use his W skill to restrain Ornn's second-stage ultimate move, which is also a better backup choice.
Morgana is actually a good choice when facing Ornn, but the problem is that it is difficult for her to stack plasma for Kai'Sa.
Moreover, after Peanut chose the male gun, kz's lineup lacked control and initiative capabilities. Grella sacrificed the laning to make the team more comfortable.
"Kz's last choice." Miller looked at the blinking BP special effects in the opponent's selection box, and was a little worried.
Although kz is on the blue side, he is still afraid of what trump card kz will bring up.
"Illaoi!" The unconcealed surprise of the doll next to him was conveyed to the ears of Miller and the millions of LPL viewers watching the game through the commentary.
"Is this kz's last card?"
His voice was high-pitched.
There was a lot of discussion on the barrage.
"wdnm, can Tentacle Mom even compete in the competition?"
"Are you really here to disgust people?"
"Isn't Illaoi just a stupid guy? My top laner, Nok, beats him."
"I guess he was chosen to match Ryze at 131. Illaoi is not afraid of Ornn in single combat!"
The camera's ray pinched its fingers, its eyes burning brightly.
He felt it coming.
As long as Ornn can be defeated in a single line, with his and Ryze's powerful split-pushing ability, ig will have no way to defeat them.
IG also discovered KZ's intention and couldn't help but turn pale.
The lineup that ig has now has no way to counter the single belt!
Once ray and bdd develop, they will put huge pressure on ig on the wing.
Bao Lan shouted, "Old Song, what hero do you want to get?"
Rookie took a sip of the special drink Li Nian prepared for him, and the cold liquid flowed down his throat and into his stomach.
He felt instantly clear-headed.
kkoma is also curious.
What exactly will the rookie get?
The team is currently lacking AP damage.
If you want to get a hero, 2 balls and a girl is actually the best choice.
"Take the Enchantress!"
kkoma also nodded and signaled Baolan to lock the hero down.
The lineups of both sides are finally determined:
Blue square kz: top laner Illaoi, jungler gunner, mid laner Ryze, bottom lane Kai'Sa + Niutou.
Red square ig: top laner Naoun, jungler Qian Jue, mid laner Enchantress, bottom lane Xia Luo.
"This lineup of ig is a bit betting on team battles!" Miller frowned, showing no signs of relief. "Kz overall seems to be more of a solo player."
Wawa also nodded in agreement, "Both sides still have to watch the confrontation between the middle and junglers in the early stage. Whoever can open up the situation first will take the initiative."
When the audience saw the wild core of Illaoi and Li Nian, they set off a wave of excitement in the venue, and the momentum was overwhelming.
The wild core showdown between Li Nian and Xiao Peanut.
Who can become the strongest jungler this spring.
"Come on ig!" A fan in the stadium took the lead in cheering for the home team. Due to the large number of spectators at the scene, he had to turn his volume to the extreme.
The cheering sound coming from the vocal cords, which had faint signs of cracking, was not out of place in the fiery atmosphere of the Zenith Stadium, but instead caused other fans to echo loudly.
kz fans did not show any weakness when they saw this, and both sides did not distinguish between first come, first served, and cheered for the team they hosted with the loudest voice.
Miller observed the runes on both sides.
Li Nian attacked with force, but Little Peanut unexpectedly launched a phase rush!
In fact, this is not surprising.
Nowadays, in the Korean server rankings, the talents of male guns are not fixed.
There are many players including Conqueror, Dark Harvest or Swift Step, it all depends on the choice of the opponent's lineup.
Although the male gun is very flexible.
But facing a hero like Kindred whose Q cooldown is faster than him, Phase Rush is undoubtedly a better choice.
Sacrifice your own damage in exchange for more output space.
Miller looked at bdd's runes in the middle and jungle game that was the focus of both sides, and his face suddenly lit up with joy.
"Ritz is going to do it!"
"Instead of wearing a thin mana stream belt, you chose to invalidate the serve?" The dolls were amused by bdd. He, who didn't understand the game at first, also developed a sense of superiority, "I don't even buy blue crystals for going out, but The Dolan Ring and the Blood Bottle, coupled with the weakness of the Summoner's skills, are going to cause chaos!"
The factory director smiled and said, "A person's name, the shadow of a tree, Rookie's enchantress do have their own meanings, and the Ignition he brings is obviously to gain an advantage online!"
The doll nodded.
Today's teleportation is too powerful, and even the mainstream method of summoning summoner skills in the mid lane like Enchantress has become TP, which is used to support or replenish the line.
But this Rookie took out his life.
Naturally, I won’t be timid.
From this aspect, bdd did make the right bet.
ig's midfielder does not intend to develop peacefully with them.
Li Nian stored all the information on the field in his mind.
Since the system raised his consciousness to 100 points, he feels that his memory and analytical skills are much better than before.
If he is allowed to take the college entrance examination again.
I will definitely consider whether to go to Peking University or Tsinghua University like other time-travelers.
pity
Li Nian can't do it!
"Invasion, invasion!" Li Nian called to his teammates.
Judging from the lineups of both sides.
Although Xia Luo's level 1 linkage has been weakened now, facing the combination of kz Kai'Sa + Niutou, he still has the strength to crush him.
And bdd’s Ryze is really useless.
Little Peanut had seen Li Nian take Qian Jue before, and knew that he would use the hero's characteristics to determine his position at 1 minute and 20 minutes.
But now at the beginning, the image of the sheep spirit was locked on his head.
He noticed it.
IG is definitely coming to invade.
So he didn't want to give Li Nian a mark. In the first 3 minutes, Qian Jue's first mark would be refreshed on the river crabs in the upper and lower lanes.
It won't be too late to fight him then.
So he didn't even defend the jungle area and went directly to his own blue buff camp in the upper half.
Li Nian wandered around.
He glanced at the barrage out of the corner of his eye.
There are still people doing it at this time, and maybe Little Peanut will replicate what he did in the group stage - attack the shy on the top lane.
"Brother Shy, be careful," he reminded aloud, "You might be caught at level 3!"
The other four people more or less reacted, theshy's mouth was tilted, with some excitement on his face, "okok!"
The top male gun massacres the Bureau.
It's really not fun to play.
One set exploded, and Vayne's crispy little body couldn't bear it at all.
This also caused him to have a straight face throughout the entire game.
The game is not fun.
If you don't operate it, what's the difference between it and salted fish?
And most importantly.
The top one is the male gun combined with the Qinggang Shadow that can forcefully change Vayne's position, which is why Li Nian dared to cooperate with theshy to cross the tower.
But in reality.
Illaoi has no ability to change the position of the opponent's hero.
The male gun cannot complete the tower jump like the previous ig.
He just needs to stay under the tower when the time comes.
That will definitely not kill you!
"You're doing the same thing again, right?" Rookie chuckled, "You really dare to take it out again!"
Li Nian opened his mouth and smiled when he heard this.
Repeat the old trick.
Isn't this the name of Enchantress R's skill?
Jack didn't bother to hold his tongue, "This is no longer possible. Otherwise, how could kz come up with such a tactic that already risks being exposed!"
Sitting in the kz lounge, Hiari stared at the screen intently, holding the fabric of his trousers at his knees with both hands.
He looked extremely nervous.
He really has nothing left to do.
The mountains and rivers are exhausted, and there is no way out.
KZ has thrown out all its tactical reserves so far, but Hiari did not expect that Jack's ez played well, and the male gun could go on the road to restrain Vayne.
It can only be said that ig has more cards than he thought.
Now there is only this set of tactics left in the group stage. At this time, Hiari can only pray that kkoma did not pay attention to that game situation.
probably not
Bar!
On the other side of IG's lounge, KKoma's breathing suddenly became rapid when he saw Little Peanut giving up the lower half of the jungle and running to the top with the blue buff to open the jungle alone.
He's not worried.
But excitement.
The last time Li Nian reversely invaded KZ's wild area, he temporarily cracked this tactic.
After the game.
He also specially gave the kz set of simulation rolls to his teammates repeatedly.
Now in the examination room.
The real question was directly answered.
Not yet?
Send me the sub-questions, students!
At this time, Coach Leehom almost jumped up in excitement when he heard the exchanges between the players in the post-match audio.
At this time, even Mafa and Xihuang couldn't help clenching their fists.
I even almost asked Vincent to bring champagne.
"Calm down!" Vincent hopes the team members can be more mature like him. "Opening champagne at halftime is not advisable."
The Western Emperor took out the champagne.
So you said this?
Li Nian danced happily with Little Peanut's red buff.
At this time, the troops in the middle were also handing over.
"Xiba, this Ryze is too stable!"
Rookie's voice suddenly rose, "Can you have a 1v1 men's battle with me?"
The level 1 enchantress learns w.
What he was carrying was electrocution.
Although Ryze and Enchantress are not very strong at level 1.
But the Enchantress with the W skill can definitely use her transformation to consume a wave of Ryze's health when he is at his weakest.
But in matters.
The bdd of this one would rather miss the knife than be consumed by the enchantress.
This also caused Rookie's W to be empty, and the back row of troops was cleared.
It also led to the subsequent second wave.
Without the high output of the long-range soldiers in the middle of kz, ig's army line will be irreversibly pushed downward towards Ryze's defense tower.
This is also indirect.
Give Ryze a safe opportunity to develop.
Qian Jue's position itself is a bright one, and there is no threat.
This result.
It is equivalent to weakening the powerful consumption ability of Enchantress before level 3.
Li Nian felt sick.
It was even suspected that Jianjiangun had logged in from another place.
But on the other hand
Bdd's behavior of giving up the line in this way will also prevent him from gaining the ability to support the wild area when the third wave of artillery soldiers comes.
Wait until Qian Jue's first mark is refreshed.
No matter where she brushes, Enchantress can cooperate with the jungler to fight for the river crabs in the upper and lower lanes.
But that's it.
Li Nian has always been cautious.
What is bdd’s journey this time around?
Would Little Peanut deliberately put a mark on him?
Will there be an explosion?
I don't have time to fool around with you!
