August 15,
With only five days left before the playoffs, all teams have begun a battle to grab points.
As of the last week before the start of the competition,
In group a, edg, we, ig,
In Group B, rng, newbee, and omg have all qualified for the playoffs in advance——
Then, the last promotion spot in each group will become the focus of competition for other teams. It is worth mentioning that,
Unlike past situations,
Perhaps due to the encouragement of the intercontinental championship, many domestic teams are more competitive than before.
So far this season, no team has lost the possibility of advancing to the playoffs in advance!
Currently, the four teams we, edg, rng, and nb are sitting in the top two positions of groups a and b respectively. The point difference in the group is only 1 point and they have also played 14 games!
So in the last week,
The results of each team's two games will also determine the final ownership of the top spots in the two groups.
Taking into account the difference in the number of games won, if we and rng can take the lead in defeating ig and lgd respectively, then they will reach the top of the group ahead of schedule.
on the other hand,
EDG and NB must strive to score 2 points in the last week to have a chance to compete for first place in the group.
With the proficiency of the new system 'Nakanosuke' linkage,
nb also experienced several setbacks and losses due to its transformation in the early stage, and quickly achieved a wave of eight consecutive victories.
The further they get to the back, the better their form becomes, making all playoff teams feel like they are facing a formidable enemy.
No,
A sparse and unremarkable training room,
Hongmi is taking the team members to watch the final battle between nb and lgd.
In the final game of the spring split, nb was defeated by LGD 2:0.
This time, in order to compete for the top spot in the group, they started playing with all their strength.
at the same time,
Later in the season, Lao Gan Daddy, who has also had a winning streak, will have the possibility of advancing to the playoffs as long as he wins today's game.
Players on both sides were in hot form and fought hard.
first round,
nb selected: the lineup of Kled, Spider, Card, Cannon, and Lulu.
The game time has only passed 4 minutes.
It was the familiar middle and jungle run again, Su Chen and Wu State went to the bottom lane together to jump over the tower.
Relying on the flash yellow card of the card, the cocoon control of the spider, and the anti-tower ability of [Coiling Silk] Feitian.
Death and Imp struggled to struggle. They had just exerted some pressure and were both killed and sent away.
Lin Weixiang's small cannon effortlessly harvested two heads.
In a blink of an eye, it's seven minutes again,
With the addition of heads, Xiaopao gradually mastered the advantage of pushing the line.
After the card has the ultimate move, continue to abandon the developed Czar in the middle lane and go to the bottom lane.
The ultimate move [Destiny] illuminates Zack who is hiding in the grass and comes to counter-crouch.
But to no avail,
The spider, who was in position in advance, flashed and formed a cocoon on his face to stun his big mouth. He followed suit and turned into a sheep. The card threw out a yellow card.
In the blink of an eye,
Before the teleportation on the top lane could be completed, LGD lost one general, and the team battle had no ability to sustain resistance at all.
finally,
Relying on the small cannon's rhythm of pushing towers, nb easily defeated Lao Gan Daddy in only 26 minutes and won the first game.
Wait until the 2nd game,
The symptoms of nb worsened, and the play style was upgraded again. In addition to the early linkage between the midfielder and the jungle, koro1 on the top lane was even allowed to participate in the early attack.
When the game is only four or five minutes old,
When nb went down the road and went directly to the tower with five people in a group, lgd's duo even wanted to die.
but,
The five people worked together frantically, and they had a smooth fight in the early stage.
But once it entered the mid-term, nb's style of play had problems.
Jinoo's Sword Princess on the top lane, after being supported by koro1 repeatedly and twice with TP, quickly developed into shape without any pressure.
Even more so at 15 minutes,
A wave of beautiful kills, relying on the involvement of one person on the side, put great pressure on nb and forced the game to the later stage.
The fierce battle lasted for nearly forty minutes, and LGD struggled to win a victory. It was about to have hope of advancing to the playoffs.
But in the third game,
nb returned to its original roots, giving up tactical changes, and focused on mid-field linkage in the early stage. After liberating the bottom lane, Liu Qingsong led Liu Qingsong to put pressure on the jungle unscrupulously.
28 minutes,
NB easily defeated LGD and destroyed their opponent's playoff hopes, but they also suffered a blowback.
According to the small-field points advantage, nb can only be ranked second in Group B, one point behind rng.
Since then,
The final battle is over.
"Pap~"
Turning off the LCD TV on the wall, Hongmi asked calmly: "After watching the game, what do you want to say?"
"Coach, the pressure is a bit high!"
Kandi took a deep breath of mosquito repellent and complained: "Every time I deal with Su Chen unilaterally, I feel uncomfortable enough.
Nowadays, people in the jungle unilaterally bind a mid laner in the early stage, and when they are out of state in the mid-term, they bind another supporter. There are two people hitting me at all times. How do I play this? "
Ben's style is not like Liu Qingsong's. He mainly protects his brother-in-law, and rarely cooperates with the jungler in the early stage.
Moreover, the wild assistant linkage requires a long period of practice, and it is not possible to succeed just because you want to.
We obviously can't do it as easily as nb.
"If it doesn't work out, I can focus on roaming!"
Xiye suggested, "In the early stage, the middle and jungle are strong against each other, but in the later stage, in the worst case, we will rely on operation to win."
He doesn't have any major shortcomings in his hero pool. He can play Lucian at the top, and he can play Rockbird and Galio at the bottom without suffering any disadvantages.
But who knows,
After listening to the translation, Hongmi refused directly without thinking, "No, using our weaknesses to attack the opponent's strengths is asking for trouble."
"You guys go to eat first. Anyway, it will be quite a while before we meet nb, and if rng breaks out and helps us eliminate our opponents in advance, we don't have to worry so much."
Hongmi waved her hand, signaling the team members to leave first.
Leave yourself alone, sit in a chair, and think.
Group A is currently,
We have secured the top spot in the group. We only need to wait for edg to decide the winner with other teams, and then defeat the winner to advance to the finals.
Although edg seemed unstoppable after iboy joined the team, they won consecutive victories all the way, somewhat regaining their former dominance.
But Hongmi doesn’t care much.
As a newcomer, iboy's laning ability and teamfighting skills are all at the level of a top-notch shooter, which is quite amazing.
But in the confrontation with nb, he also exposed a huge shortcoming, that is, he does not listen to orders and is easily taken advantage of.
This is a fatal shortcoming in a battle between strong teams!
After several years of training, the brother-in-law is now at the peak of his personal strength.
There are no shortcomings in laning, team play, and mentality, and he can still beat iboy.
but,
The key point that makes Hongmi think that the winning rate is the most is the top lane. Even if the middle and lower jungles are all 50-50, 957 can still suppress mouse with its personal strength.
By the time,
Simply use the single belt pull to maintain the top lane advantage at all times, and it is not difficult to defeat edg.
But…
"nb is not easy to beat..."
Tapping her fingers lightly on the table, Hongmi slowly closed her eyes and fell into deep thought.
koro1 and 957 have similar styles and can both attack and resist.
But in terms of age,
koro1 is one year younger and slightly ahead in operation and reaction ability.
Before leaving the road,
We still have the advantage, but since Su Chen developed the incense burner, Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong's disadvantage of insufficient laning has been eliminated, and their performance in team battles is not inferior at all.
"Even if the upper and lower lanes are balanced, with the support of the system in the jungle, Su Chen has the advantage. If we want to win, then the only breakthrough..."
Hongmi opened his eyes, flashing with a sharp cold light, "Only the middle road is left!"
Whether it is the spring or summer games, we can always beat nb, and Xiye is indispensable for his stateless suppression.
But now there is a problem,
The middle lane has been wandering to avoid fighting, using the characteristics of heroes such as the Ice Girl card, which cannot be limited by pure suppression and BP.
"Is there a way to make cool willingly play against xiye?"
The flickering incandescent lamp illuminated Hongmi's uncertain face.
The next second,
"Pa~"
Lights went out.
"Axi, how many times have I told you to send someone to repair the lamp!!"
In the lounge, Hongmi's frantic roar could be heard, "Do you want to save this little money?!"
