"Well..."
Su Can fell into deep thought, then turned around and said, "Have you never thought about it before?"
"I've thought about it. I've been thinking about this even before the playoffs started."
Su Can: "..."
I guessed that the factory director might prepare in advance, but I didn't expect it to be so early.
Now think about what the factory director said before that he is already studying MSI opponents. It may be more than just rubbish.
Maybe they really spent a long time studying it.
Su Can also searched in his mind for a while, but he really didn't have any ideas.
Most of the factory directors are original to the classic trash talk in their minds.
It is a pity that at this time in S8, EDG's strength has declined seriously, and the factory director has gradually faded out of the competition stage.
If you can't make it to the finals, you won't be able to record trash talk.
The trash talk looks very lively, but in fact, most players in the LPL league don't even have a chance to record.
After the S8 Spring Finals, the director never recorded any trash talk again.
In the original time and space, the next time EDG reached the finals, they would have to wait until S11.
Since then, the quality of trash talk in the LPL finals has plummeted.
There are also a lot fewer classic jokes in trash talk, and there are only occasional highlights.
For example, what Su Can just said to Uzi was quite popular after IG won the championship.
His appearance has changed a lot, so it is basically impossible for trash talk to happen in this round.
There was no other wonderful trash talk in Su Can's mind.
He wanted to give me advice, but it was really difficult to perform in this scene, so Su Can said: "Then why do you ask me after you have already thought about it? I am not good at this."
"Don't be modest, I thought what you just said was quite interesting."
"Stronger than I thought."
Su Can couldn't help but said: "Why don't you ask which skin to choose this year, Pig Girl or Widow?"
Factory Director: "Isn't it a little too crazy?"
"Will I prove who is the best jungler in the world?"
Factory Director: "..."
The trash talk session seemed to have only a few words, maybe only ten minutes at most, but everyone was together for a long time.
After that, it’s time to go back to the hotel to prepare for the finals.
On September 14th, the day of the finals, Su Can and the others got up in the morning.
In addition to makeup, there is also a simple rehearsal session.
The finals officially started at 4 p.m.
But before the game starts, there will definitely be some delays like performances or something.
Normally, if you want to watch the game, you can turn on the live broadcast at 4:30 and the game may not even start.
Su Can and the others were in the waiting area. They could only see the tip of the iceberg of the performance on the stage, but they could almost hear the sound.
Every time there is an anniversary celebration, LPL will invite Zhu Zhen to come over and act as the queen host.
Only when something happened later did we break this tradition and let LPL's own host take over.
Just listening to the voice from behind, you can tell that this professional host is indeed better than the LPL hosts.
After waiting for about ten minutes, it was time for the contestants to appear.
This year's player appearance session has a special design. Before each player comes out, a virtual representative hero will appear in front of him.
For example, Uzi is Vayne, and the factory director is Pig Girl.
When Su Can came out, he gave a sword girl as the representative hero.
The main reason is that there are too many heroes that Su Can plays, and they all perform well. If you have to choose a representative, it will be difficult to pick one.
The overall effect looks very cool, but unfortunately only viewers watching the live broadcast can see these special effects.
There were more than 20,000 spectators at the scene, and they burst into enthusiastic cheers when the contestants appeared.
It can be seen that the fans at the scene are still very considerate, and they cheer for every player who appears.
It's just that the cheers are loud and small.
It's easy to tell how popular a player is by the volume of their voice.
The three most popular ones are definitely Su Can, Pig and Dog, and the others are not much different.
But overall, EDG's popularity has obviously surpassed RNG by a lot.
The fan base of these two companies is there. Who can beat whom? To put it bluntly, it depends on the results.
In the original time and space, RNG won all the championships except the S crown in the S8 year, and its popularity increased dramatically.
Even if in the next few years, there are several waves of withdrawal from fans, and even all Uzi fans are cut off, there will still be quite a lot of fans.
However, RNG did not win a championship this year, and its rising momentum was abruptly interrupted by Su Can, so RNG's fan base has not yet reached a terrifying level.
…
The commentators are still the same three, the Haier brothers and Changmao.
However, there was no commentator's seat on the screen at the beginning. In events like the finals, there is also a commentator's seat.
It's the kind of person who chats with everyone before and after the game, which relieves the pressure of the three commentators to a certain extent.
In previous years, guests would be invited to the commentary box, such as well-known anchors or entertainment stars.
What impressed us most was the game between RNG and SKT in the S7 World Championship. Zhang Dapao was in the commentary box.
It can be seen that Cannon felt a little uncomfortable when he finally failed to beat SKT after five fierce battles.
There were no guests invited this year, and the three people in the commentary box were commentators.
Second brother, senior colonel and sister Zhou.
The three of them didn't really want to analyze the game, because there seemed to be no suspense in the game.
It’s not that the commentators think so, it can be seen from the pre-match odds.
But that’s what they do in the commentary box, and it’s impossible not to discuss the game.
The official soon released various data on players and teams.
It can be seen that there is not much difference in the data between the two teams, and even RNG is still ahead overall.
What is the economic lead in 15 minutes, and various data such as first blood rate.
Comparing the same data on both sides together, it is easy to see the difference.
But everyone knows that this data is for the regular season.
For those games played in the playoffs, the data may not have had time to be included.
In EDG during the regular season, Su Can didn't play many games and could only be considered a strong team.
The data is of little reference. The data of teams such as IG and RNG appear to be better than EDG.
But when the personal data of the top laners were released for comparison, everyone was a little shocked.
Su Can's data is so gorgeous, ranking first in every data category. I haven't seen such exaggerated data for a long time.
Some of the statistics of RNG's two top laners may not be as high as Su Can's when combined.
"Before the game, many people may have thought that EDG had a better chance of winning this time, including us."
The colonel concluded: "But it cannot be said that RNG has no chance. I don't think the overall strength gap between the two sides has reached that point yet."
"The main gap is still concentrated on the top lane. If you want to cause trouble for EDG today, you have to see if you can restrict the top lane."
The second brother answered: "I find it difficult to limit OhYes. His personal ability is truly the most exaggerated top laner I have ever seen, bar none."
"It has never happened before that a newcomer can perform like this."
"I think RNG will have a chance as long as they can maintain stability on the road."
Sister Zhou had been listening to the two people talking for a long time, and knew that she couldn't just mess around all the time, and she had to say a few words at the right time to express her presence.
Just listen to Sister Zhou slowly say: "We also know from looking at the list that RNG sent out a posture to start today, and may have special preparations on the top lane."
The two top laners of RNG have very distinct characteristics, and the role of posture is obvious. They occasionally act as surprise soldiers in key games.
Even in some games, his hero pool can bring out some cool stuff.
In the first game, EDG was on the red side.
To be honest, this is a point that makes the posture very uncomfortable. He can't hit the opposite lane in the first place, but you still let him have the counter position on the red side.
The choice of side in the first round of the final was decided by a coin toss. Su Can's impression of Tian Ye's side was that they never lost.
Luck is always on the line.
Regardless of e-sports or traditional competitive sports, many champions have an element of luck in them.
In this game, the two top laners didn't want to come up to play because they had both been beaten violently by Su Can.
The posture is not bad, Letme was really trained by Su Can many times.
In this kind of game, Letme couldn't bear the pain alone, so he arranged a starting position.
The RNG coaching staff still has some expectations.
First of all, Letme is completely unable to beat Su Can. A top laner with his style will naturally be overwhelmed when facing Su Can.
For other powerful top laners, Letme also has Ornn, which is easier to use.
But if you dare to choose Aoun when facing Su Can, he will let you know what cruelty is.
If we really want to be able to hold Su Can, we might as well see if there is any chance of posture.
So the coaching staff plans to give Posture a chance and look back to see how he played.
If that doesn't work, let Letme go up and fight the opponent in a team fight.
During the BP in the first game, EDG gave the posture some face.
In the first round of bans, the hero Alchemy was banned.
Not many people play this hero. He is the kind of hero that cannot be changed even if the version changes. All he can show is his unique skills.
This hero has the right posture and can be played well. He won it several times in RNG this year and achieved good results.
Except for heroes who are disgusting, many teams have never encountered this kind of thing, so they lack some means of dealing with it.
In normal training matches, you are unlikely to encounter this thing.
Even if you want to practice specifically, the opponent's top laner may not necessarily know how to play alchemy.
This hero doesn't seem difficult. What you need to play well is not proficiency, but an understanding of the hero.
Anyway, EDG's ban position is completely sufficient. It is not difficult to give a ban position for alchemy.
If you get the regular top order for your posture, there will be no pressure at all.
For example, if you are a captain, EDG cannot target you.
"RNG directly took Ozat in the top lane. The strength of the top lane is still acceptable."
It seems that RNG didn't prepare anything special for the top lane this time, and just got Ozat for the posture.
Anyway, it's the same whether you take it early or late. Su Can has the counter position and can always choose the hero at the end.
Ozat is definitely one of the top laners in the current version.
There is no need to mention the strength, it just depends on whether it can withstand Su Can's pressure.
Miller said: "It's a bit surprising that RNG didn't take AD in the first round."
"But now that there are external ADs, there are still options. For example, Ice, Verus, and EZ are all there. It just depends on which one you choose."
"Ouch, Vayne?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Vayne appeared on the fifth floor of RNG.
As soon as Vayne appeared, the whole audience burst into cheers.
Everyone knows whose natal hero this thing is.
After waiting for the cheers to die down, the doll smiled and said, "This is just a show, Vayne is definitely impossible."
Even someone who understands a game like Doll can say something so certain, which shows that Vayne really has no way to go down the road now.
When making final selections, many contestants like to highlight something else to enhance the program's effect.
For example, when Shao Shao is in a team with Big Boss Teacher, if he chooses the laner in the last move, he likes to show Karma and Lulu.
Everyone knows that it is impossible to choose, and it will only disgust your teammates if you show it.
Xiao Ming is a programmer who knows that in such a large-scale competition, the audience will definitely cheer if Liang Wei En comes out.
Even though you are wearing sound-isolating headphones, the cheering players outside can actually be heard, but there is a delay of a few seconds.
Xiao Ming is not the only one in RNG. Others also like to do this operation, always showing Vayne.
As a famous user of Vayne, Uzi couldn't help but laugh when he saw his teammates doing this in the past.
But today, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked a little less optimistic.
He quickly said: "Don't show off, don't show off, don't show off to this hero."
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Ming has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.
Uzi quickly explained: "Show these heroes in front of Su Can, and he can choose them for you with his backhand."
After being teammates with Su Can, Uzi understood Su Can's temper during games.
This person is okay in reality, but he really doesn't like you when playing games.
It's best not to show off in front of him.
Vayne plays well, so she understands the strength of this hero.
It was rubbish in the early stage, but in the later stage, it would be a nightmare for someone with an operator to play this kind of hero.
The so-called late stage does not necessarily mean that time is delayed to the later stage.
If I could get the equipment earlier and level up quickly, I wouldn't have to wait so late to reach my peak.
Getting Vayne for Su Chan is more terrifying than Lucian in Uzi's opinion.
When Xiao Ming heard this, he didn't think it was anything. He felt that Uzi was a bit intimidating. He listened slowly to the coach's words and chose Ice for Uzi.
"I'll go, top laner Vayne!"
"Lock it immediately!"
"..."
When it was EDG's turn to select a player, they didn't even wait for the commentators to guess which hero Su Can would pick. They were immediately locked in.
Highlight a cheerful and sensible person.
When it was bright on the opposite side, Su Can had already informed Tian Ye that he was going to play, so Tian Tian didn't have to worry about it and immediately found Vayne and locked it down.
When he saw that the other side was locked, Xiao Ming was in a daze for a moment.
No, is it exactly the same as what Uzi said?
Only Uzi and Xiang Guo were not surprised, both of them had the expected expressions.
You said you had nothing to do, why did Feiliang Hero provoke him?
Fortunately, they don't have to face Vayne, so they don't have to worry so much for the time being.
If you can't beat him later, that will happen later.
Only at this moment, staring at the computer screen with a confused look on his face, he felt paralyzed.
Vayne is not an absolute counter when facing Erzat. This hero has obvious shortcomings and is easily targeted.
The opposite question is OhYes. Letme has said it more than once that Su Can is exaggerated in playing with long hands on the top lane.
It's like using a defensive tower to attack you, but there's nothing you can do.
I never thought that with the help of my teammates, I would experience it.
