The final outcome was not beyond everyone's expectations. In the third game, OMG played well even in the last wave. After killing two opponents first, he directly defeated the Baron, which many people saw.
A glimmer of hope.
However, in the end, it was the remaining three players from ig who launched a perfect team fight that brought the game to an end.
omg failed to make a comeback, nor did it achieve a shocking reversal from 2 to 3 in this bubbling match, and withdrew from the stage of the World Championship.
This makes many omg fans feel very sad, which is a pity.
But the game is like this, there are winners and there are losers. If you are not as good as others, you can only retire sadly.
The fans of ig are very excited. Today's three games were all won very beautifully. Although there was a small wave in the end, the result remained the same, which made them dare to fight against ig.
I appreciate the momentum even more.
I am used to seeing the various playing styles of other teams in the current LPL region seeking stability. They have to try again and again to get to the high ground. Now I see that IG doesn't care about anything. If it can be over, just rush forward.
The reckless style of fighting really made the audience feel excited when they watched it.
The winner ig successfully advances and will decide the final third seed spot with team we.
The waiting time was not long and the players were not given much time to prepare.
After the game, leave the venue and have a night's rest.
The next day, the game between ig and we officially started.
This game will determine the third seed in the S7 World Championship LPL Division.
Who can represent lpl in this s7 world championship depends on today's game.
Compared to yesterday's game, today's game, in which the result of the No. 3 seed was decided, attracted more people's attention.
At 2:30 pm, the number of people in the live broadcast room was obviously much more than yesterday.
In the commentary box, the two official commentators are still participating in the commentary today, Guan Zeyuan and Wang Jiji.
The special guest has changed, it is no longer pdd, but Shenchao is invited to participate.
Because during the summer split, we had higher points than ig, so we had 135 side selection rights, while ig had 24 side selection rights.
"Today IG's starting lineup has not changed. It still continues the top and jungle combination that was in good condition yesterday, with theshy and Ning as the top and jungle partner." Guan Zeyuan shared some pre-match information with the audience in the live broadcast room.
Needless to say, we’s lineup is all familiar faces.
Wang remembers echoing: "Yes, the players are all ready and are about to enter our first BP round. In the first round, we have the priority to choose sides and chose the blue side to face the red side's ig.
"
In the first three bans of the first round, our side banned Thresh, Oxhead, and Prince.
On the other hand, ig banned Big Mouth, Enchantress, and Skateboard Shoes.
"Today's BP is a bit unexpected. There are many heroes released in the top lane. Jess, Sword Lady, Rambo...theshy can win too much in the top lane." Wang remembers wondering.
.
In previous games, ig’s opponents would basically focus on the top and middle positions in the first three bans.
Jace and Sword Lady are basically must-bans.
In the summer games, the hero Cheng Lu used the most was Rambo, who still maintains a terrifying 100% winning rate.
As a result, we did not take the usual route this time and released them all for ig to choose.
Guan Zeyuan said: "We should have come prepared today, but it is worth noting that we banned two assists in the first three bans. It seems that instead of limiting the performance of ig's top and middle lanes, the focus seems to be on
We need to target ig’s bottom lane.”
Shenchao nodded and analyzed: "Actually, this ban person has the same idea as me. If I were we, I would also choose to target ig's bottom lane."
"Because from yesterday's game, we can still see something. IG's top and jungle play is very strong. Even if the hero is banned, there is not much change."
"Yesterday, ig's bottom lane only produced very good results after using the combination of Xia Luo, and gained an advantage online. Once the combination of Xia Luo was cut off, it was easy to make certain countermeasures.
.”
There is indeed nothing wrong with Shenchao's analysis. The top, middle and jungle players on IG are not easy to target, but the bottom lane is easier to target.
In yesterday's third game between ig and omg, it can be seen that after omg snatched away the hero Xia first, n's Luo will naturally not be selected.
Without the duo of Xia Luo, the online ig bottom lane did not produce very good results.
Wang remembers echoing: "Yes, it is worth mentioning that in the previous ig games, no team tried to ban the hero against ig's bottom lane double lane. This is very common among our LPL teams.
special."
“In previous games, including yesterday’s game between ig and omg, the first three bans were all chosen from the top and middle heroes. Only when ig is on the blue side, the red side will ban the skateboard hero.
"
"As for the next two bans, they will generally ban some of the remaining top and mid-level heroes from ig, such as Sword Lady, Rambo, Lucian, and Clockwork."
Wang remembered looking at Shenchao and continued his analysis: "One of the points mentioned by Teacher Shenchao just now is the combination of n, and the best AD heroes played by West now are Xiao Pao, Mouse, and Xia. Skateboard shoes are impossible.
There’s no need to talk about it once it’s released.”
"We banned the two supports Thresh and Niutou in the first three bans. After limiting the heroes that supports can choose, we directly released an support like Rakan. So I think we must target this one in our first-hand selection.
Click to make a fuss.”
Wang remembered that there were no problems with Shenchao's analysis, as soon as he finished speaking.
Our first-hand selection directly targeted Xia.
My brother-in-law is very proficient in Xia, it’s not that he can’t use it.
After we restricted the heroes we could choose as auxiliary players in the bottom lane, we made such a choice and it was already certain that we would choose the Xia Luo duo.
When it was IG's turn to select people, wine barrels and cannons came out directly on the first and second floors.
In this version, Wine Barrel is the most powerful jungler.
Xiao Pao is one of the heroes with the highest proficiency in West. Without Xia, Rat is too weak in the early stage.
With WE's targeted design, West was forced to make such a choice.
We selected people in the second and third hands and locked in Luo and Da Chongzi.
ig chose Lulu for the third time.
Shenchao continued his analysis seriously: "The other heroes are relatively normal, but we, the big bug who came out first, I think he should be ready to go on the road and resist the pressure. After all, he has already selected the opponent in the first round.
If the lane is targeted, then the main focus of this wave of we should be the bottom lane."
"If we ban people later, our focus will return to the choice of top lane or mid lane."
In the second round of bans, ig banned Syndra and Clockwork.
With the right of priority in the second round, banning a few strong mid lane heroes can put restrictions on the opponent.
On our side, we have banned Jess and Sword Girl.
ig chose first and directly locked in Snake Girl. This is also Rookie's specialty hero. She is very strong in the middle and has achieved many solo kills online.
It was our side's turn to choose between four and five moves. Since there was no better choice for a strong mid laner, we chose Galio, a more functional mid laner.
As soon as this hero appeared, our intention to focus on the bottom lane became more obvious.
After the mid laner locked Galio, the team's damage was a bit lacking. On the fifth floor, a damage-oriented jungler, Mantis, was added.
ig made the last choice and directly targeted the crocodile.
This is a very strong hero in the early stage of the top lane, and he is also easy to fight against big bugs. When combined with the jungler of the wine barrel, the top and jungle duo will be even stronger, as they rush to cross the tower.
If the big bug does not have the support of the jungler, it can completely kill it by jumping over the tower in the early stage.
In the commentary box, Guan Zeyuan saw the last choice of crocodile lock and said with a smile: "Here it comes, it's the same as yesterday's one, the familiar combination of crocodile and wine barrel. That one is even against Gnar, the shy player.
It still produced a very good effect, just went straight to the road and penetrated all the way.”
Shenchao nodded: "Yes, ig's playing style is to line up the lane, cross the top lane, and then rely on the shy player's personal performance to end the game in the mid-term."
Wang remembered asking at this time: "Teacher Shenchao, which one do you think you are more optimistic about, ig Ueno's crocodile barrel combination or OMG Ueno's big bug mantis combination?"
This question is also a question that the audience likes to hear, the situation prediction before the game.
Naturally, the audience wants to hear the prediction that their favorite player will win.
In other words, many viewers watching ig games now already think that as long as you play Cheng Lu, we are good brothers.
But Shenchao ignored what King Dao remembered and said seriously: "I don't think our side will fight in the jungle."
"IG's lineup is obvious, it is to play in the jungle, and the bottom lane must be free of charge. On the we side, if 957 can withstand pressure and stabilize, Kangdi's side will be more effective in targeting the bottom lane."
After hearing Shenchao's unconventional answer, Wang remembered that he reacted quickly.
He took over the words: "Yes, I think the current ig's playing style has changed from the four words of giving up and protecting the top at the beginning, to a stable top and bottom, and the focus is still on the bottom lane."
Guan Zeyuan nodded: "Indeed, ig's current playing style is very unique. Compared with other teams, it focuses more on achieving a great advantage online. Of course, this is also inseparable from the outstanding personal abilities of the players.
.”
"IG is a team with strong individual players. Relying on theshy's personal ability to open up the situation online, form a breakthrough point in the top lane, and finally expand the advantage and convert it into a victory to end the game."
"So whether we, 957, who is on the road, can hold his own against ig's attack in the jungle, is also a key point that determines the outcome of this game..."
······
The lineups of both sides are finalized.
wevsig
Hit the Road: Big Bug vs Crocodile
Jungler: Mantis vs Barrel
Mid lane: Galio vs Snake
Bottom lane: Xia vs Xiao Pao
Support: Luo vs Lulu
When the game entered, in this key match that determined the third seed, the cheers of the fans on site were much louder than before.
The two sides started normally. Ning's wine barrel went to the blue square blue buff and placed an eye. This eye captured the opening route of Kangdi Mantis in front, allowing Ning to confirm that Mantis opened red.
The wine barrel starts with a blue buff, so go straight to the top.
Both sides help the jungle normally in the bot lane, and then go online.
Cheng Lu controlled the crocodile to wait for a while in the triangular grass on the upper road, then went directly down the river into the grass on the opposite side. After not finding the location of the big bug, she went online directly.
Compared with yesterday's match against Gnar, Crocodile beats the big bug. This silly hero is easy to fight. They are all melee heroes, so there is no pressure at all. Flexible use of the second stage e can also directly avoid the big bug's skills.
Needless to say, on the road, Cheng Lu just suppressed this big bug at will. After leveling up, she can frequently use her skills to hit a set of blood-consuming enemies.
The initiative to hit the road is completely in her hands.
And the middle road.
Snake came out with the Corruption Potion, and when she faced Galio, she directly knocked down the potion at level one, then forced herself to attack with four E skills, forcing Galio back to the tower and even losing half of his health.
It also shows a one-sided trend of suppression.
Regardless of the player's personal ability, Galio is also in a weak position online against Snake.
At this time, the bottom lane was also playing very fiercely.
Ben's Luo W skill was directly raised to Lulu who was moving forward due to consumption and was knocked away.
After Xue and Xia were weakened, their movement speed and output were damaged. Seeing that he couldn't catch up with Lulu, his brother-in-law gave up and continued to output.
Just from the beginning, you can see the next online trend to a certain extent.
IG is at an advantage.
In the bottom lane, we's targeting of BP before the start was effective.
n didn't get Xialuo, a good combination, but faced we's Xialuo duo in the bottom lane, which was a bit difficult to beat.
Compared to we's brother-in-law and ben, who are currently the top bot lane combination in the country, n is indeed a little behind.
However, the styles of the two teams are different, and their playing methods are also different.
We need our brother-in-law to step up and focus on the bottom lane, which is the core of their team.
But ig is different. The team's focus is on the top and middle lanes, and Ning's jungler is now included. The entire ig relies more on the advantages gained in the lanes of top and middle, as well as Ning's jungle rhythm.
Currently, this top, middle and jungle combination is the key to ig.
nJust hold on tight and wait for the other big brothers and sisters to comec.
Comparing the two teams, ig doesn't need to come to C from the bottom lane at all now, which is very different from we.
Of course, the mainstream style of play now still relies on the double C in the bottom lane and the middle lane.
IG, which uses the top lane and the middle lane as its core, can only be regarded as an alternative at present.
Other teams cannot achieve this kind of effect of ig.
Our top laner 957 is not weak, but if we expect him to come to C, he will definitely not be able to achieve the effect of Cheng Lu. There is no doubt about this.
However, according to the historical performance of WE in the S7 World Championship, this is a very strong team. It has achieved the semi-finals in the World Championship, so it goes without saying much about its strength.
Therefore, the current focus of both sides is different, and the effects achieved by relying on the player's ability are also different.
It’s hard to say who can win this Bo5 game in the end, become the third seed of LPL, and represent LPL in the S7 World Championship.
It still depends on what kind of effect the core players of both sides can produce.
