Chapter 578: Opening match, mika is going to perform!
The team players and live performers exited one after another, and Mixia and her teammates also took a short break backstage before stepping onto the stage again.
As the defending champion, edg represents the strength, and g2 represents the European sentiment of the Brazilian audience. The confrontation between the two teams is scheduled for the opening game.
In fact, if the local team rgb reaches the group stage, the competition team will really not dare to arrange a losing opponent for the home team's opening game.
But for a team like g2 that has a certain psychological tendency, and the opponent will not let the audience break the defense if they really lose, the competition team dares to boldly rank the most interesting and topical duel in the first game.
Anyway, partying is the right thing to do!
The audience at the scene had this mentality, waving flags and cheering before the game started, as enthusiastically as if edg and g2 really had their home teams.
At the same time, in the European live broadcast room, the famous Ocean Horse host Sjokz, who was sent to the scene wearing a purple floral dress, listened to the noisy cheers behind him, but frequently smiled bitterly at the camera.
"Hi, fellow LCS European viewers, although I rarely say anything negative about the LCS team before a game, but this time I have to remind everyone before the game starts that it is indeed difficult for g2 to win today's game."
"Oh?" Dash, his partner and later the host who was famous for inhaling oxygen bottles, laughed and said, "Even Sjokz is not willing to support the Sija team. Have you also been charmed by player Mika and surrendered to the enemy?"
"Haha! Mika is indeed my favorite professional player, but I really won't abandon the LEC team. In the past few years, our team has always been a slow-starter. This year, MSI was actually arranged to play against EDG in the opening game.
I just hope they won’t be unable to adjust their mentality after losing to edg, after all, there are still nine group matches ahead!”
Another round of enthusiastic cheers made sjokz turn around involuntarily.
"Okay, the game has entered the BP stage, please direct the director to switch back to the Lec studio."
Live broadcast of lpl and lcs Europe, and switch back to the bp interface at the same time.
g2 chooses the side to the blue side and disables Karma in the first hand.
The Mid-Season Championship started with version 8. The biggest change in this version was the introduction of the new hero Xia Luo, but it was banned in the game. The other changes, except for the previous version 7 that weakened the poodle, almost had little impact on the game.
Therefore, mid lane heroes are still of various styles in the playoffs.
AD assassin Jace Lucian, AP mage Syndra Clockwork, auxiliary hero Karma, roaming Galio Rockbird, and the stable and playable AP assassins Enchantress and Murloc.
The reason why g2 banned this move is because the European team really cannot use or deal with the Kalmar mid-support swing tactic commonly used by EDG in lpl - even though it is recognized that the Karma mid laner limits Sakura Girl's carry ability.
EDG will immediately disable LuLu.
Kalma is disabled and is on the red side. Of course, the remaining soft auxiliary t1 road must be pressed.
Go to G2 to ban someone on the second hand, and decisively ban Jace.
Because there are no groups in the group stage, everyone has not played together in training matches. In this way, g2 has an objective understanding of the level of Jayce on edg. At the same time, edg also has an objective understanding of Jayce, the top laner of g2.
I have some awareness of my crotch-stretching ability, and it is even more impossible for g2 to perkz in front of Sakura girl to choose Jace and wait for it to be terminated, so I can only disable it with tears in my eyes.
Go to edg again, Kenan presses directly.
Unlike the mid laner, which basically maintains its original strength arrangement, top laner Kennen has been studied and practiced by a large number of professional teams since he was first used by the Vietnamese team in the playoffs.
Benefiting from the enhancement of Ruined, AD top laner Kennen suddenly became the dominant player in the top lane since its inception.
The characteristics of long hands and broken damage give him an advantage against most of the currently popular tank heroes. In the later stage, he can be brought alone, and in group fights, the incense burner increases the equivalent of double AD, and he also frees up the mid laner to use roaming and
Control hero.
At the same time, for traditional top laners with longer hands than his, Jace cannot get out of the way, and Lucian is more suitable for the mid lane. It is impossible for anyone to take Kalista or Vayne.
Of course, edg has also done some research on Kennen, but as it has not yet developed a specific strategy, it is still safe to ban it.
The third choice of g2 was to ban Galio in the end.
This is actually banning top laner Galio. Meixia's mid laner Galio has always been hidden, and he hasn't even played it seriously in training matches.
In the third move of edg, she banned Enchantress again. In this move, Mika thought it was very simple. Enchantress is a fly that is too annoying. She can win with perkz in the lane, but it is difficult to complete the attack against Enchantress with two displacements.
Kill in the lane, so in the first game since I want to show off my skills in front of the world audience, I don’t want to give it to the flexible hero PerkZ.
However, both teams banned players for these three rounds.
Although g2 thinks that it bans mid-support swing, top-mid swing, and top lane hero respectively, it is different in the eyes of the commentators and the audience.
The lpl side has already switched back to the commentary desk at the beginning of bp, with Wawa and Miller commentating.
Wawa was already laughing, "This MSI of g2 has just launched three mid laners? Perkz promised to compete with mika for the world's number one mid laner?"
"Now that mid laner Lucian is still out there, is it possible for g2 to steal it? I heard through the grapevine that p has been really good in recent training matches!" Miller, an honest man, still believes what perkz boasted before the game.
However, it can be seen from the first three bans that although Perkz is very confident, their coaching staff has definitely not let down their guard at all.
Unlike other regions that still play Zyramal Zaha as support, the LPL that realized the power of Incense Burner early on, Nami Lucian is a regular in the regular season.
However, Nami Lucian has a fatal flaw. It must have an advantage in the early stage and must not make mistakes in the mid-term.
The factory director was as keen as Mixia in sniffing out the conspiracy on the other side, "g2 should have predicted that we would choose this way."
"But since it is our LPL's special bot lane combination, how can we not give foreign players a try!" iboy wanted to show off his skills more and more, but he didn't realize that Mei Xia should be one of the foreign players he mentioned.
"That's right!" Mei Xia didn't stop her. After all, it's impossible for Luciana Mei to be released from her home and she wouldn't dare to take it.
However, there is no need to grab Lucian's beauty in the first two hands. edg first grabs Lucian and then adds Cuishen in the second hand.
Lucian can swing up and down without worrying about being killed, and Cuishen is of course one of the heroes that the director has been training hard recently.
It was G2's turn to choose a player, and Zyra and Blind Sin quickly locked in.
The former is consumed by laning with Ice, which is how most leagues except LPL understand the version. The latter is the jungle position of poodle and male gun after being heavily nerfed and then re-upgraded.
It wasn't until edg made the third selection that Nami was locked in.
Ten-do mode comes to the second round.
edg has banned Crocodile and Sword Princess.
In the middle, Mei Xia has the last ter position, so don't worry, these two moves are actually aimed at g2's top unit.
G2 bans Kled and Rambo. These two heroes are placed on the road, but in the eyes of the audience, G2 has four mid laners.
[It turned out that top laner Rambo was banned. In this situation, I thought it was mid laner Rambo who was banned.]
[Don’t g2 really think that edg’s hero pool can be completed? 】
[I can’t even wear mika-chan’s underwear, so just save it!]
…
Come to the second round of selection.
edg took the first move and let mouse take down Shen, who was very comfortable for him to use. Although it had no combat effectiveness when paired with Cuishen, it basically showed that edg was on the road in this game. However, the choice of ap top lane still gave Meixia the ability to change the AD hero system in the middle lane.
.
Then g2 first selected the captain for the top lane. This is the single hero that their Korean aid expects to be good at. I don’t know how edg played, but it is said that many teams have seen it in training games.
Let’s go to g2’s fifth move, perkz’s choice.
When Mei Xia was looking forward to her whole life, suddenly, G2 locked down Syndra, the Dark Head of State.
Well, it can’t be said that Perkz is a coward. If you want to become a world-class mid laner, Syndra is indeed a hero that you must master. Like clockwork, she became a hot version before the World Championship.
But if this happens, Miha will be rude.
She's going to take out her panties!
Tidal Sealing Fizz!
A murloc holding a trident appears in the selection box!
Anyone who is familiar with her knows that when she participated in the world competition for the first time, Sakura girl shocked the world with her single-handed kill of Faker with a small fish-man!
With the whole audience cheering, the selection of candidates from both sides ended.
Blue side g2, top laner Captain, jungler Lee Sin, mid laner Syndra, adc Ice and auxiliary Zyra.
Red side edg, top laner Shen, jungler Cuishen, mid laner Murloc, adc Lucian and assistant Nami.
