As the commentary voice fell, EDG on the blue side took turns banning Soraka, Kindred and Bard.
The red side banned Ryze, Enchantress and Thresh one after another.
On the American Summer side, coach Abramovich's intention is very obvious. First of all, the opponent's clg assistant is Soraka, or a soft assistant with unique skills. The only hard assistant used in the spring split is Braum, and their first group stage test and practice
Focus on the lineup and don't expose too many tactics.
Therefore, BP does not do in-depth hero counters but instead tries its best to target clg's weaknesses. After locking out the opponent's auxiliary hero pool, it then bans Qian Jue in the jungle position with the fewest available heroes in the version to forcefully limit the opponent's next step.
Hero selection for the jungle position.
The BP strategy of clg is even more obvious. To ban Thresh is to choose a soft support. As for the two ban positions of Ryze Enchantress, Mika is left to Mika. Especially the ban of Ryze, who has only won one LPL final, must be a study.
I passed the edg competition and was very afraid of her.
The commentator remembers to explain the difference between the MSI and LPL playoff versions by analyzing the BP, "With this BP, basically all the OP heroes in the 6.8 version are left out, and basic magic resistance and growth magic resistance have just been strengthened.
The top laner Dashu, and the Leopard Girl who has returned to the jungle t1 position, I don’t know what choices the two sides will make.”
Ruofeng speculated based on his impression, "I think Edg will grab Dashu! mouse Dashu has been playing very well, and Poppy has been greatly reduced. There is no better top lane hero than Dashu in this version."
But Abu wanted to try more tactics and test clg's hero pool, but their BP did not go as Ruofeng expected.
The one holding the double barrel shotgun appears in the selection box.
EDG grabbed the jungler's gun for the first time!
Not only was Ruofeng confused at this time, but Hua and many other island country spectators who had watched the EDG game were also confused about the situation.
"Don't grab the big tree for mouse? This is the top laner in version t0!"
"What is Abu doing? He doesn't really expect mouse to carry the hero, right? Can he carry it? He can't. You don't have this ability, you know?"
"I still believe in edg and mika. Maybe edg's BP has his own special strategy."
…
clg was also confused about this. Originally, their BP plan was to let go of the big tree, Huhi in the middle lane would use his newly trained secret weapon, and then choose the policewoman in the bottom lane to cooperate with the soft assistant's speed push system.
Now edg released the big tree for nothing, but it made the speed push lineup they formed more complete and powerful.
Jungler xmithie shouted, "Darshan, just grab the big tree! Edg is a BP mistake!"
Mid laner Huhi said, "Are they looking down on us? They can even place the top laner's signature tree..."
Top laner Darshan said, "Whatever, I, Dashu, robbed him. I hope your secret weapon against Mika will work."
Huhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, hey, haven't we already tried training games many times! I can guarantee that roaming heroes like the cards are Mika's weakness."
Then clg decisively grabbed the big tree and leopard girl with his first two hands.
It was Edg's turn to select a player. Meiko's assistant quickly selected the Bull Head of version t1, while the third selection was a little slower. In the hero frame, the portraits of the little murloc Ekko jumped repeatedly.
The commentator remembers guessing in his voice with a lot of Taiwanese accent, "Mika's mid laner shouldn't come out first for the time being, top laner Ekko or Xiaoyuren? This is unlikely..."
Professional coach Bai Yueya was the first to realize that Edg's BP was somewhat unusual.
"Not necessarily. I think EDG may have to experiment with the lineup to find its form and let Mouse carry the top laner in the opening game..."
But White Crescent's speculation also deviated from edg's tactics.
With Mika's personality like trying out new heroes and new routines, how could she use a hero like Murloc that she has played many times against a weak team like CLG?
What's more, she already had a plan in mind. From the beginning of msi, she gradually gave up her pursuit of the assassin hero according to the version.
And as the white crescent moon's words fell.
Meixia, who was responsible for selecting the third hero in the edg team, finally stopped her actions of stirring up the emotions of the entire audience. Her bright eyes swept across many heroes, stopping on the first hero from the middle unit, and pressed it with her white and tender fingers.
"Of course it is!" a long and simple voice sounded.
The person locked in the bp frame is neither Ekko nor the Little Fishman.
It’s the Star-casting Dragon King Thor!
The whole place was in an uproar for a while.
I remember exclaiming in surprise, "My old swan, Star-Forging Dragon King Thor! In the first group match, the new mid lane hero debuted on the world stage for the first time!"
Ruofeng quickly echoed and praised, "Wow, indeed EDG came up with a brand new strategy! The mid laner Dragon King, Mika actually trained the new hero so quickly, she is indeed a genius girl!"
However, Bai Yueya, who was the first to judge that EDG had a new strategy, was more worried than the two commentators around him.
In his understanding, Dragon King's burst has average late-stage damage, and his e-skill "Star Stream" allows this hero to move across the terrain for long distances. All signs indicate that he is a half-map support mid laner similar to the card.
Mika is good at assassins, and can barely practice a few spell-core heroes, but has never been a player who is good at roaming and driving rhythm.
In short, Dragon King and Mika's game styles that like to show off their skills are completely opposite.
But he couldn't pour cold water directly, so he could only express implicitly, "Dragon King, this hero usually focuses on roaming. I don't know if Mika has developed the roaming ability, or she will be the Dragon King with full burst style.
"
The barrage in the live broadcast room, which was close to boiling, has gradually recovered from the surprise of edg's bold choice of Dragon King. We can only hope that Mika has really mastered Dragon King.
The most shocked person at this moment is the clg team sitting opposite edg.
Especially Huhi, who stared at Mika sitting across from him, his chest felt tight and his eyes were almost on fire.
What made him even more angry was that Mika noticed his gaze and waved to him from afar.
"Isn't it surprising? It's not just players from North America and Europe who like to come up with strange and innovative routines!" Meixia felt that Huhi was looking at her so directly because he felt sympathy for each other.
But Mixia obviously misunderstood Huhi's thoughts, and he cursed, "Shet! Falk! My secret weapon! My Star-Forging Dragon King Thor! This hero should have been my first one to get the MSI!"
"
Top laner Darshan shrugged and comforted, "Okay, what should we do? The fact is established. Your secret weapon was stolen by the opponent before it even left the warehouse. Now it's time for you to choose a hero."
Yes, Huhi has carefully prepared a weapon to deal with Mika for a long time, which is the new mid laner Dragon King. Edg's card ban rate in LPL games is close to 95%, which fully shows that Mika can neither handle support heroes nor win them.
Hero counter.
And since he couldn't play cards, he specially trained the new hero Dragon King as a substitute for cards!
"Okay, Huhi." Jungler
Maybe I just want to take it!"
After hearing this, Huhi felt resentful and finally raised his fighting spirit again.
"It means that Mika underestimated me! Practice a new hero in front of me! Well, I want her to see the strength of the North American champion mid laner! In this game, I will choose my best Czar!"
clg locked up mid laner Tsar and adc Lucian.
Needless to say the former, the latter was changed because the policewoman's speed push system was more afraid of the Dragon King's early roaming.
At this point, it’s edg’s turn to make the last two choices.
mouse selected the weakened Poppy, letting the nervous audience breathe a sigh of relief.
deft confidently locks in the ADC Big Mouth, which is EDG's choice to cooperate with Dragon King to enhance the late output of the lineup.
As for the last choice of clg, lock Braum on the auxiliary. Now that the female police speed push system is gone, it is no longer appropriate to choose soft auxiliary in front of the Taurus.
Game bp completed.
The blue side edg selected top laner Poppy, jungler Lancer, mid laner Dragon King, adc Big Mouth and auxiliary Niutou.
The red side clg came up with a lineup of top laner Daoshu, jungler Leopard Girl, mid laner Tsar, adc Lucian and auxiliary Braum.
