After returning to the hotel, EDG conducted a post-game review as usual.
In fact, in today's game, edg showed quite a lot of problems, but after all, they won the game 3-0, so nofe didn't embarrass everyone too much. He just talked about some small details that should be paid attention to but failed to be done.
The team members were allowed to disperse and move around freely.
After the meeting, Abu grabbed Yang Yi, who was about to sneak away to the Kang Bar, and quietly asked him a question:
"Xiao Jiang...theshy's performance today, what do you think?'
"It's pretty good, it's better than the training match."
"I'm not asking about his overall performance, I'm asking about specific details. I'm thinking about who to start in the summer split." Abramovich said seriously.
Yang Yi looked at him carefully and then said seriously:
"Well... judging from his current performance, Xiao Jiang is still not suitable for starting.
"Why?'
"Aren't you asking knowingly?"
Yang Yi was a little helpless, but still analyzed him in detail:
"In today's three games, except for the good effect of Jace in the counter position in the first game, the remaining two games have quite big problems, especially in terms of preventing gank. I feel it is not as good as some lpl bottom laners."
"Actually, it wasn't that Xiao Jiang did a good job of preventing gank in the first game, but that he won the one-on-two wave, which caused VG's top lane to collapse directly, and the opposite jungler didn't dare to go to the top lane to help.'
"The most important thing is that his offensive nature is too strong. Even as a tank hero, he wants to go up and exchange blood with the opponent to suppress him. If Mingkai hadn't gone to the top and counter-crouched in time, I feel like something was really going to happen in the second round.'
Playing hard and being aggressive is not a bad thing.
Abramovich originally took a fancy to theshy's operation and offensiveness, and felt that he was different from the blue-collar top laners in the lpl who only knew how to withstand pressure.
The problem is, if you want to play more aggressively, you should at least pay attention to the position of your jungler, right?
No matter what happens, you should always pay attention to the position of the opposite jungler, right?
But theshy hardly considers these things. No matter how much you tell him, when it comes to games, he will act as if he has lost his memory and play without discipline.
What is discipline? To put it simply, it means that if you go from the middle and jungle to the bottom lane, you should not push the troops forward at this time.
Without vision, you should not attack some of the deeper lines of troops.
Like theshy did in the third game, when his own jungler was in the bottom half, he went up aggressively. Doesn't that give the opponent a chance? But to put it bluntly, it is a legacy of last year's top laner Phantom God version. Tank heroes are too good at mixing things up.
.
No matter how strong your line pressure is, Jace, you can only suppress the line with Poppy's last hit. In team battles, Poppy's role is much greater than that of Jace.
Then there are the issues of hero pool and grinding. Yang Yi didn’t mention this, but Abu also knew it.
Judging from the results of ordinary training matches, theshy performed very well when he was in the counter position and was in the warrior top lane, but his tank top lane was relatively inferior.
The key is that the tank heroes and equipment in the next version will receive a wave of enhancements. Big Bug, Dashu and Shen have now become top laners at the T1 level in the Korean server. Heroes like Kled, Jess and Sword Queen are competing in the competition.
The appearance rate will definitely be greatly reduced.
When it comes to the summer version, the top lane is dominated by tanks. No one knows whether the tanks will be weakened later. If not, it will be very difficult for theshy, who is not good at tanks, to play.
Moreover, his coordination with Krillin's Dirty Dance was a bit poor. In the last game, edg chose Kled Spider Queen's mindless tower-crossing and jungle combination, intending to maximize the aggressiveness of theshy.
But maybe it's because he doesn't get along very well with Krillin, or maybe Long's unique skill Poppy is too strong. In the third game, edg failed to cross the tower twice in the jungle, giving his teammates a fat Poppy.
.
Fortunately, edg's double C was powerful enough, allowing the top jungler to win the game, and at the same time, it also gave vg a famous scene where the top single's power output was the highest in the team.
After chatting with Yang Yi, Abu gave Mingkai and theshy a dead order to train in double row, so that they could develop a certain tacit understanding in a short period of time. At the same time, he also asked theshy to strengthen his training on tank heroes.
This is really not a waste of the shy talent by Abu, forcing him to play with meat.
It's just that no one can predict the changes in the version after the summer split, especially the version of the global finals. If the warrior top laner is rampant like in S5, theshy will naturally have a chance to start.
But if we go back to last year's version of Phantom God, if you are a top laner who doesn't know how to play, then don't blame the team for letting you sit at the water cooler.
So let’s practice more now.
It is very difficult for a blue-collar top laner who is used to playing a tank to resist pressure to become a warrior hero in a short period of time. This is proven by Rambo, whose mouse always sets fire to mountains, and Kled, who does not understand.
But theshy is known as one of the top three Rivens in the Korean server. Since he can play such an operation-heavy hero to perfection, it is only a matter of time before he can master the tank hero.
Abramovich is willing to give theshy time and opportunities. Now it depends on whether he is willing to step out of his comfort zone and practice tank heroes for the team.
In the first game of rng in the semi-finals, nofe chose to return mouse to the starting lineup, and the team's tactical focus also returned to the bottom half.
Although theshy's debut performance was amazing, edg also defeated vg 3-0 and successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the Demacia Cup.
But just like when Yang Yi first came on the court, the coaching staff would occasionally give zet a starting start, so it’s not like mouse had no chance to play at all.
After theshy joined edg, Aguang clearly felt the pressure of competition and worked much harder in all aspects than in the spring split, so nofe gave him a chance to prove himself.
In this game, Aguang did not disappoint his coach and teammates.
Two big trees and one cautious one, from the laning stage to the team fight, they completely blew up letme in every aspect, helping the team take away rng 3-0. Of course, this is also related to the fact that rng did not join the main lineup this time.
As we all know, Brother Zuko likes to perform a lot of ineffective operations when moving. Although this operation habit does not improve his positioning, he will still die suddenly when he should die.
However, this high-intensity frequency of use is very damaging to the wrist, and in addition, the bath boy usually does not pay attention to eating habits and exercise, so some occupational diseases of e-sports players and common diseases of heavy people have been caught early.
he.
Since the Demacia Cup ranking has no impact on the World Championship quota, and the team did not make much adjustments during the summer transfer period and only signed a substitute top laner, rng simply sent out this Demacia Cup.
As the substitute adc, he had no intention of starting the game, so Brother Zuko was allowed to recuperate and rest at home.
It's just that Wuxin hasn't played a training match with the team for a long time. At most, he and Xiao Ming played in double queue a few times before this German Cup. Naturally, it was not enough to watch in front of Yang Yi and Tian Ye who had been working together for a long time.
To put it bluntly, when RNG sent him to play in the Germany Cup, they had some intention of clearing Brother Bath's name. Looking at it, Mata was right what he said at the beginning. Wu Xin is just a pile of mud that cannot be used to support the wall.
Only Brother Bath can save me from the fire and water!
Obviously, rng's goal has been achieved. After being defeated by edg three to zero, rng's official Weibo was immediately occupied by Gou Silin. Thousands of comments were asking why the club didn't play Uzi, and suggesting that the team should quickly move on.
I kicked it unintentionally.
But this part of the story has nothing to do with edg fans. They are having a classic pre-game champagne session, wishing edg in advance to win the Demacia Cup for six consecutive years.
In fact, it’s no wonder that fans opened champagne, two bo5s, edg replaced two top laners with different styles, and used two completely different tactics. The result was that they easily defeated the opponent 3-0. This is enough to show that the team’s hard power is strong.
How powerful.
What's more, the other team in this finals is still EDG's former second team IM.
How to lose?
It's just that the winning process is not as easy as fans thought.
In the first game of the finals, edg returned to the starting lineup with theshy.
It's not that theshy genius mastered a tank top laner in just two days, but that edg was lucky enough to get priority in choosing sides during the coin toss.
nofe took the initiative to choose the red side and locked the troll in the counter position for theshy, hoping to use the troll to kill the opponent's Poppy in the counter position.
Edg won this game easily, but it wasn't theshy from the counter position who penetrated the top lane, but IM's mid laner Athena who had a problem with the lane and was directly killed twice by Scout's mid laner Lucian.
The playing style of Athena, the mid laner, is actually a bit similar to that of VG's Easyhoon. They are both good at large core output in the late stage. However, although Easyhoon is not strong in laning suppression, he is rarely single-killed by the opponent, and at most he is killed by the opponent.
The opponent presses for some CS, but Athena's lane is relatively weak, and she is often killed by the opponent in line.
After winning the first game, edg did not make any personnel changes and kept the lineup of the first game for the second game.
In this game, edg came to the blue side. Without the counter position, nofe took the first move to give theshy Jace, who had no natural enemy on the line, while im chose the big tree for amazingj as the second move.
Facing the veteran top laner amazingj who once created a triple jump miracle, his Jayce exerted his suppression power to the extreme, suppressing the opponent's big tree for a total of fifteen times in five minutes.
However, IM and EDG have played too many training games, and they are not as unfamiliar with theshy as other teams. They have long known that Jace is a stupid young man who is willing to catch and die.
Ben4, IM's jungler, came to the top lane and ganked three times in the next five minutes. Except for the first wave of cross-dodge, theshy forcibly replaced the big tree, and the remaining two waves happily gave away his own kills.
The death was so fast that even Klin Lawu, who was determined to hit the road and counter-crouched, was caught off guard and could only watch Jace from a distance away from the screen.
Especially in the third wave, with ben4 in sight, theshy still chose a sky leap and hammered the big tree, which made the edg fans in the audience feel their blood pressure soar.
At the same time, the bottom lane duo, which has always been unfavorable, also encountered a soft nail in this round at the hands of im.
Amazingj knows that theshy is very powerful, and the Golden Horn will not be unfamiliar with Yang Yi, who has already played in the spring split.
Knowing that he was no match for the edg duo, he and his support road came up with the ultimate wretched combination of ez and Tahm, highlighting one as long as they didn't get killed in the lane, it would be a success.
Speaking of which, although Jin Jiao is only one year older than Yang Yi, his career resume is very rich.
As early as 2014, Jinjiao joined the acfun team and made his debut in lspl. Then in 2015, he moved to edg and became the substitute AD. He once started a summer regular season instead of def and defeated the snake team with Draven.
Brother Crystal, who completed the legendary triple jump with IM last year.
Yes, like Brother Crystal, Golden Horn also has the unique skill Draven, so when Vincent, who split the canyon with an ax, removed the murderous sword with his fist, and compensated the gold medal anchor for his skin, went to the LPL team for trial training, he would
There are rumors that Jin Jiao used the policewoman to beat Draven with his forehand and Draven with his backhand to beat the policewoman Vincent.
With such a rich resume, the Golden Horn's own strength is naturally not bad. The d quality inspector believes that only if he can beat the Golden Horn in the lane can he be regarded as a first-class LPL AD.
Such an AD quality inspector chooses to be wretched and develop. Yang Yi and Tian Ye really have nothing to do with him. Even though they got some advantages in last-hitting in front of the lane, in the face of the effort of dying three times in five minutes on the road, this advantage
It seems a bit insignificant.
Socut played a flying game in this round, and could only develop against Athena's Tsar, unable to do much.
If edg's top and bottom lanes are the sharpest spears, then im has become the most solid shield in this game, resisting edg's attack.
Klin Lawu was torn between going to the top lane to counter-crouch or going to the bottom lane to jump over the tower. In the end, he couldn't do either one.
Under the training of coach Sun Dayong, IM itself is extremely good at operations and late-stage team battles. In addition, their lineup is more solid than edg. After the game was delayed for thirty minutes, im easily defeated edg through head-on fighting.
.
After returning to the lounge, Nofe had a slight headache.
He had the intention to take theshy off the field, but it was against his coaching style to take the player off the field after losing a game. In desperation, he had no choice but to try to communicate with theshy again.
"Xiao Jiang, can you be more steady?" Nofe said earnestly, "The opponent has obviously regarded you as a breakthrough point. Next time you want to go up to fight, can you first determine the position of the opponent's jungler?'
"Kuai, I understand." theshy looked serious, as if he agreed seriously.
But it was this attitude that made Nofe feel bad, because when he said this to him before, he agreed readily. Yang Yi observed it from the side and suddenly interjected:
"Xiao Jiang, if you win this game, how about playing Riven as a reward next time?"
Theshy's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his voice became much louder: "This is so great!"
"But you must agree to my request, that is, I can only die once in this game. Otherwise, you can play Poppy in the next game."
Hearing this, theshy was obviously a little embarrassed.
But in the end, he couldn't resist the temptation of the bunny girl Riven and nodded with difficulty.
