Chapter 801 Korean media's campaign
Building momentum before the game is also a part of the game. Most of the Korean media focused their news on describing the performance of the MG team this year.
For example, the MG team’s winning streak in the LPL league during the summer split;
For example, the Chinese national team’s outstanding performance during the Asian Games;
Another example is the MG team's record of sweeping all the teams in the World Championship group stage and knockout rounds.
The Korean media's propaganda direction is very clear. They prepared two backup plans before the start of the World Championship.
If the final is a civil war between two LCK teams, then they will focus on promoting the personal characteristics, heroes, tactics and other information of these two teams. Anyway, no matter how the final is played, the winner in the end will be their "one of them".
They will focus more on the technical aspect of the game.
As for if the final becomes a showdown between teams from the LCK division and teams from other divisions, then the LCK media will focus on promoting the historical origins of the two teams, or the comparison of the rivalry strengths of the players.
The effect of doing so is also a double-edged sword.
The advantage is that it can attract enough attention before the game. If the team in the LCK division can finally win the game, it will artificially create an effect of "permanent hegemony".
Of course, another situation that may have an impact will have the opposite effect, that is, the teams in the LCK division will be eliminated in the finals, which means that the things that were hyped up before have become reality.
The media in the LCK region have certainly considered the pros and cons, and the reason behind their final decision is also very simple.
Before the start of the S10 World Championship, the LCK division had won the championship position for several consecutive years. In other words, at least so far, they are still the nominal first division.
Since it is the first division, it should have the status and ranking of the king.
Regardless of the final result of the SG team in the S10 season, their mission is to defend the championship trophy they have owned for a year, not to "challenge again."
In other words, their status this year is that of defenders, not attackers.
The Korean media has made various propaganda and propaganda to show how strong this year's MG team is and how hot it is. In essence, they are emphasizing the strength of the "challengers".
As long as the SG team wins the finals in the end, doesn't it mean that the defender is better?
No matter how powerful and fierce the challenger was, he was still defeated by the SG team in the end.
This is the plan of the Korean media to carry out various publicity.
In the last few days before the start of the finals, the current starting players of the MG team were carefully introduced by several major Korean e-sports media.
"A top laner comparable to SG·RHK. His playing style is extremely aggressive and fierce. It is predicted that the top lane in the finals is likely to become a scorching battlefield comparable to a meat grinder!"
"Even Coffee has to go all out to deal with the mid laner QB, the card master is superb, and the strongest mid laner in the LPL region!"
"The MG team's bottom lane combination performed extremely well in this world championship, and they still did not fall behind against the P3 team's bottom lane duo!"
"..."
After the players in the five positions of the MG team were criticized all over the place, the Korean e-sports media went back to emphasize how powerful the players of the SG team are.
“By analyzing the MG team’s past game video records, it can be seen that this season’s MG team has learned the tactical essence of the LCK division and began to use a top-centered strategic play style. However, in terms of depth of research, SG team is undoubtedly better.
One chip!"
It was a roundabout call. To put it bluntly, it meant that few top laners in the previous LPL region had Jin Xin’s full offensive desire. Most of them brought a teleporter to mix in the lane and wait to support teammates, and often did not consider the linkage between top and jungle.
The tactic of strong kills and advantage in the early stage, on the contrary, the LCK division has often used this strategy in the past few years.
Therefore, the publicity trend in the Korean media has become that the MG team is imitating the tactics of the LCK teams.
Arguments like this have emerged one after another in just a few days.
Everyone in the MG team, including Wang Zixiu and the team members, who were resting in the hotel and doing daily training before the game, naturally saw the news through the Internet.
Of course, Wang Zixiu and the others didn't pay much attention to it.
Just listen to what the media says. If you really believe them, I’m afraid you’ll be at fault every year!
Wang Zixiu knew very well what kind of tricks these Korean media players were playing.
It’s nothing more than bragging about MG’s impressive performance this year, then some decent-looking analyses, and finally a firm “conclusion” that MG’s strong performance is the result of learning and imitating the LCK division.
, in this way, they can prove their so-called "LCK division is the first division".
Wang Zixiu only found this logic funny.
The tactical system of the MG team is the result of his training and training through the coaching system and the training and training of the players. The Korean media said that it is a typical concept of sneak substitution.
The offensive routine that focuses on the top lane is indeed a lane that the LCK division is very good at, but the tactical effect they expect to achieve by playing this way is completely different from that of the MG team.
The LCK division was "addicted" to the 41-point push tactic for a while, and even almost used this system to dominate the competition for several seasons.
The tactical idea is to choose a strong warrior hero on the top lane, and the jungler will cooperate in the early stage to gain an advantage, so that in the mid-term, the top laner can advance with a single belt, forcing the opponent to lose sight of one thing.
To deal with the top lane hero who is singled out, sending one person over can only barely defend the tower, and there is a possibility of being forcibly killed by jumping over the tower;
If you send too many people, if there are not enough people on the frontal battlefield, you will easily be forced to retreat or lose resources.
However, the top lane hero in this system does not have the ability to directly end the game. It usually serves as a containment to give teammates more room for development.
Wang Zixiu has a more complete and scientific tactical system.
In the early stage, it is too wasteful to fatten up a top lane hero who is economically advanced and has advanced development. It would be too wasteful to just let him lead solo.
In the tactics of the MG team, Wang Zixiu often uses the heroes operated by Jin Xin as the rhythm engine in the mid-term.
The competition version of the S10 season still emphasizes fighting rather than operations, and the fighting time has been greatly advanced.
In the past, it was only after the Baron was refreshed in 20 minutes that there was a possibility of large-scale friction between the two sides, but now, both the elemental dragon and the Rift Herald will force the two teams to engage in a firefight.
At ten minutes, a warrior hero with equipment such as the Black Cut Blood Hand enters the field. Not to mention 1 vs. 5, as long as the positioning is done properly, 1 vs. 2 is easy, and 1 vs. 3 is often no problem.
Wang Zixiu never expected a 41-point push at all. The core of his tactics has always been to directly grab resources in the early and mid-term stages and use Jin Xin's hero's strong period to defeat his opponents!
