"Three stars were on the blue side in this game, and they came up and disabled Juggernaut first," Miller beamed. "Why do I feel like I'm back in last year's World Championship?"
Choose to have Miller and Doll smile at each other.
To be honest...
Today's Juggernaut does not have a matching hero lineup at all, and although Li Nian did not clearly state the role of Juggernaut in his last interview.
But secretly he basically made his intentions clear.
Juggernaut is just a dispensable hero choice.
At this moment, Plar, who was sitting in the commentary box of the Korean main stage next door, couldn't understand, "I think Juggernaut is completely a confusing choice for ig!"
faker is now on vacation, but today, the last day of the game in Group B, he came to the commentary box at the kind invitation of lck.
He gave his own opinion on this.
“Mainly because last year’s Fly player’s Juggernaut brought us huge trouble,” Lee Sang Hyuk seemed to be lost in memories, “Although the junglers and lineup systems of the three LCK teams last year were able to support the Juggernaut, But the unavailable effects can do wonders for weaker teams.”
He shook his head, "But when facing a strong team, it's a little bit worse."
"Juggernaut is not the kind of hero who can put pressure on the lane in the early stage. The most important thing he chose is to bury himself deep in the jungle for development. His emphasis is on jungle core play." Lee Sang Hyuk is a professional player, and kkoma explained it to them last year. The wonderful use of this 450 essence hero.
"To put it simply, Master Yi and the Samsung team are not compatible."
As for ig, who is on the red side, he first disables the Qinggang Shadow, which has the advantage in the current version.
This hand is disabled.
The main reason is that they are afraid that Samsung will lock Camille in one fell swoop. If Wine Barrel and Xin Zhao are blocked again in the future, then ig's early offensive rhythm is likely to be curbed.
also.
Even if Camille is blocked, Galio's system cannot be used now, and Crown Brother cannot be given the opportunity to push the lane as a gangster.
one stone two bird.
Just when the lck commentary booth was still discussing ig's BP.
Sure enough, as mafa expected, Xin Zhao was banned, and ig took the initiative to ban Han Bing again.
Mafa is not like letting Ruler get the ice. If the ruler chooses three heroes from his best, one is ez, the other is Kalista, and the remaining one is ice.
But now ez and Kalista are too weak in the version, and shooters like Han Bing who are both team initiators and stable output in the later stage will naturally become the first choice.
Although mafa says that bp is not as strong as kkoma, he pays more attention to moderation, that is, he does not stand out but will not be taken advantage of by the opponent too much.
"The last ban spot in the first round was given to Zuo Yin, and ig chose to continue blocking cuvee's Kenan."
This version of Kennen is not a good choice when facing a lot of warrior-type top laners, but the pressure on cuvee Kennen is too great to withstand using Samsung's system.
The barrel was taken down first in the first round.
"Now that all the powerful jungle heroes on the field have been blocked, Wine Barrel is undoubtedly the best choice."
After the first round of the group stage, Qinggangying, Jiugong, and Xin Zhao were respectively ranked as the favorite choices for the jungle position, and the Trolls were relatively strong before the World Championship.
But after Riot weakened him in version 8.18, he finally reached the altar.
"IG got LeBlanc and Kai'Sa in the first choice..." Miller's eyes lit up, "These two hands are very good!"
"Look at Samsung's second and third choices..."
Wawa will focus on Samsung's hero selection.
Now that ig has shown double C, if they don't lock a C position on the second and third floors, they will be very passive in the second round of hero selection.
Edgar thought for a moment and discussed it with his team members.
Finally, Lucian + Nami were locked in!
"It's a very unexpected choice," Mi Ren said, cheering up. "Nowadays, Lucian is basically on the bottom lane, but it's a bit surprising to lock Nami down when Braum still has a choice."
Li Nian lightly moistened his lips with the cold water in the cup.
He drank a little too much Coke recently, so now he just wants to drink some colorless and odorless water.
Mafa frowned and was still thinking about his opponent's intentions.
Today, Lucian's threat in the middle lane is not great. His ultimate move has been weakened and his e-skill CD has increased. Only the bottom lane is slightly better.
And paired with Nami.
The explosive ability online is very strong.
In fact, Samsung's coach Cui has nothing to do.
Taking out the Luna combination was out of necessity. After all, Group B had finished the round robin, leaving them with too little time to adjust.
】
Edgar and other members of the coaching staff carefully watched the videos and videos of previous games and found that since the group stage, both the players who played the late lineup and the teams who played the early lineup.
The time at the end of the game has been reduced.
Most fights are over before 30 minutes.
This sends a very clear signal - the main advantage of the current World Championship version is the early and mid-term, and in the later stage Edici is more like a toy in the middle and upper jungle.
Rather than this.
It is better to select Lucian and Nami to focus on their online advantages, and then use the strength of the bottom lane to feed back the midfield and top jungle to enhance their confrontation capabilities.
For the Samsung team.
This choice basically gives up the advantage and chooses to play the early and mid-term with ig in the way that I am least good at.
But does it really work?
Edgar was also very confused.
But there is no way, not even gods can do it if they want to change their style in a short time.
After all, this kind of thing determines the player's style from the beginning of his career.
Want to change...
There is no way to do it without a season of training.
Previously in LCK, except for teams like kt, other teams were waiting for team battles in the later stages. Iron Turtle's three-star armor was even thicker, so the tallest one could be selected from the strongest team.
The result is the World Championship.
All the LPL teams are strong, and EDG seems to have been taken away from them. It has changed its style from the previous seasons.
Crazy gives strength to other teams.
Not to mention rng. Although the strength of the midfield and upper jungle is not high, but thanks to their top Uzi in Eddisi, the other teams in this world championship are not a match at all.
The European Legion has now been led off the track, and the truth has begun to follow ig's footsteps and rub against other teams.
Don't say...
Apart from the gap in hard power, the effect is really good.
It was like when kt met g2 from the same group and was unexpectedly knocked down. This surprised mata for a while.
At this moment, even the Vietnam team and other wild card divisions are getting angry. Anyway, it is difficult for them to defeat their opponents through operations or other means. It is better to use a dead horse as a living doctor and maybe they can find a way out.
Among the sixteen teams, only Samsung and the African team are still sleeping and dreaming.
This is also the reason why their two teams were almost kicked out of the Korean Open in the first round of the group stage.
and......
In this global finals, the lck team also has the support of the home court. In this case, it is really difficult to be embarrassed and humiliated.
But......
There are no magic-core heroes in the ruler's hero pool. He claims to protect the final glory of adc, so the magic-core system such as Bomberman, Snake Girl, and Syndra are simply ignored.
Instead of doing this, it is better to choose Lucian to play offense.
Although his proficiency is not strong, it is better than being trapped to death.
"In the third pick of the first round, ig got Luo, who is extremely proficient in Sapphire!"
At the beginning of the second set of BP, Mafa once again put the two heroes Gnar and Jayce on the ban position against cuvee.
Edgar also began to target Jiang Chenglu, blocking the two heroes Sword Demon and Sword Girl.
"Li Nian, what do you want to play?" Mafa looked at his star player again, "Blind monk, dream demon?"
Now that the Enchantress in the middle lane has been determined, Rock Bird and Spider are both legal heroes, and the double-AP midfielder lineup is not very friendly.
There are only two T2 jungle heroes that can be selected.
Li Nian thought for a moment.
"It's better to take the blind monk. It's easier to do things with the enchantress."
Jack locked Li Qing without hesitation, "It's a bit boring not to meet Leader An. I also want to experience the joy of beating Samsung last year."
"It's the same for everyone," Baolan said with great excitement, looking at his screen, "Samsung is a team that gives away points this year."
Li Nian nodded wildly.
If it were Samsung last year, it would really have a chance to win.
After all, they are the favorite team that best fits last year's S7 version.
But what a coincidence, I met ig in the quarterfinals, and was strangled in the cradle and taken away before he could fully rise.
Even the runner-up status of S6 could not be retained.
Edgar continues to implement his tactics.
Lock down Urgot and Ryze.
Samsung did not choose to continue to waver and look at ig's lineup, but decisively locked in all the mid-to-upper heroes.
The situation is clear.
Prepare to let Brother Crown get Ryze to fight against the Enchantress in the middle.
When it comes to the choice of heroes on the top lane, it is basically difficult to find a hero who can beat Urgot.
Mafa is still communicating with Jiang Chenglu about the choice of top lane hero.
There are not many strong top lane hero options available today.
Jiang Chenglu thought for a moment and finally gave his answer, "I can fight the Sword Lady."
in discourse.
That was extremely confident and arrogant.
Last year, Jess won the championship skin, and Jiang Chenglu also hesitated for a moment in the choice of Sword Princess.
In the end, I chose the Italian gun king.
But now that he can get the Sword Princess whose proficiency is maxed out in the group stage, Jiang Chenglu will naturally not let it go.
As for hero restraint.
Just pretend it doesn't exist.
The lineups of both sides were finally revealed.
The gen of the blue side: top laner Urgot, jungler Barrel, mid laner Ryze, bottom lane Lucian + Nami.
Red square ig: top laner Sword Girl, jungler blind monk, mid laner Enchantress, bottom lane Kai'Sa + Luo!
"IG's lineup..." Miller said a little worriedly, "The only hero that Kai'Sa can enter is Luo, and they don't even have a front row!"
The doll nodded.
Although his understanding of the game is still in elementary school.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that ig's lineup is completely an extreme offensive lineup in the early and mid-term, although Kai'Sa can guarantee the output ability in the later period.
But they don't have a front row to provide Daughter of the Void with an output environment.
Sword Lady still has to fight in singles, and she is basically unable to resist the charge of two tanks, Thane and Urgot.
But Wawa has always been good at this.
He quickly adjusted his words and said loudly, "Samsung's lineup looks very solid, but they have a fatal weakness."
"Lack of harm!"
ig's lineup is too flexible. If it is combined with gen's lineup system, it will be difficult for them to fight to the end.
Instead, it will give Sword Girl a chance to push the tower.
Miller also agreed, "Samsung needs to keep Luna in the early game and let the ruler gain weight as soon as possible to take over the mid-game."
Mafa, who was on the Busan Convention and Exhibition Center stage, was still emphasizing the specifics of this set with the team members.
"There are only two words for this lineup," he pinched the shoulders of the five players one by one. "Don't fight them head-on. Just pull them from the side."
Li Nian nodded slightly.
"I happened to have read Protracted War, and I know guerrilla tactics best!"
Mafa conveyed KKoma's intention again, took off his earphones and went to the center of the stage to shake hands with Edgar.
The audience at the scene could not restrain their excitement for a long time, and they shouted wildly, hoping to attract the attention of the players.
Waving lights and cheering sticks were constantly swaying in the darkness, making the venue completely crazy.
This is a key battle for Samsung!
Once this game is lost, even if they win all the next two games, they will still have to wait and see TL's face to advance.
Even if ig loses to tl in the subsequent game.
Then it will become the first lck team to be eliminated at home.
"Samsung group invaded and entered the upper half of ig!"
The level 1 groups of both lineups are considered strong, but when it comes to damage and control, the gen lineup is relatively stronger.
"I'll just open the lower half. Baolan, you go to the opposite side and use the red buff as an eye!" After Li Nian learned about the opponent's movements, he came up with follow-up arrangements.
Baolan agreed.
Since Samsung dares to invade the upper half of ig, the lower half is destined to be undefended, so he is not in a hurry to learn skills when entering the jungle.
Went straight in.
After all, Li Nian is playing the blind monk in this game, and the eye position on his body is the third leg for him.
Nowadays, the initial cooldown time of the accessory eye is too long. If Li Nian uses his own first, he will not be able to touch the eye and run away until the second eye is refreshed.
Li Nian saw Baolan successfully inserting the eye position.
Then he started to move his little head.
The intention of invading his own jungle area from gen level 1 is already obvious, that is, he wants to drive Li Nian into the lower half, so that Li Nian cannot compete for the river crabs in the upper half.
Luna of the Samsung bottom lane duo will inevitably compete for lane rights after going online. So even if Li Nian quickly goes to the river to kill wild monsters, he will be persuaded by Luna who rushes to the bottom lane in advance to support him.
Gen's idea is obvious.
I just want Li Nian to be unable to get rhythm points in the early stage, delaying the development of the blind monk, and preventing him from eating river crabs.
"When Jack goes online, fight with them and try to hold on to the power of the line!" He quickly communicated with his friend Edici, "They will come to harass me later."
Although Luna is very strong, Lucian rashly came up to exchange blood with Kai'Sa without learning the e skill.
There is no benefit to be gained.
Li Nian's request was not difficult, and Jack was happy to have a try with Ruler online first.
After all, during the Asian Games, he wanted to rid Ruler of his second fear of dogs.
Let them know that LPL's ADC not only has Crazy Dog, but also Crazy Chai!
"Are you going to ruin Korean e-sports?"
Jack laughed when he heard the plan.
