Chapter 180 [Spring Split Opener! Pirates VS Warriors! 】
February 16th.
Saturday.
Building 9, Pudong Zhengda Plaza, Modou.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, an endless stream of tourists walked through the buildings.
The LPL regular season competition venue in the S8 season was moved from last year's Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center to this place located on the Huangpu River, adjacent to the China Pearl Tower.
Today is the opening day of the lpl spring split.
Due to some force majeure factors, this year's LPL Spring Split is postponed by about a month compared to previous years.
Therefore, the schedule for the first week of the regular season is much more intensive than in previous years.
Today, during prime time on Saturday.
On the opening day of the Spring Split, a total of three b03 games were scheduled.
16:00,ym vs rw
18:00 we vs ig
20:00 rng vs edg
Judging from the schedule of the opening day, the organizer of the LPL event also threw out the king bomb at the beginning.
The first game was between YM, who was promoted from LSPL to LPL, against the reorganized Galaxy Battleship RW.
The second game continued the grudge that last year we defeated ig and took away the World Championship spot to today.
Not to mention the third game, "Pig and Dog War", the Spring Festival Gala continues again.
15:40 minutes.
In the waiting passage.
The YM team members, all put on makeup, are gathering together, waiting for the mall.
"Here, the makeup artist put something on my face. I feel so uncomfortable now." Xiaotian, who had been carefully dressed up by the staff, was twisting his body and feeling uncomfortable.
"I saw that you enjoyed it a lot when the young lady put makeup on you just now," Zuo Zuo looked at Xiaotian suspiciously, "You probably didn't ask for the foundation to be given to you."
"Fuck you, am I so perverted?" Xiaotian rolled his eyes.
The two brothers Nakano started bickering again.
"It's almost time to go in." Su Chen glanced at the competition stage outside the tunnel.
The host has finished reading and is ready to enter the stage.
"Okay, okay, come on." Xiaotian suddenly stuttered as soon as he heard that he was ready to come on stage.
The left hand on the side also immediately became silent.
Assistant alu and ad bvoy didn't even say a word.
Su Chen also noticed that although they kept teasing each other, in fact, everyone was still a little nervous.
After all, this is the first game after entering the lpl.
"Okay," Su Chen clapped his hands, "remember the bet we made just now, whoever loses first blood today will treat the whole team to milk tea when we go back tonight!"
"I want to drink the one with double fruit pulp, ice cream, patches, and oats." Zuo Zhi said immediately.
"So skilled, you can place the order for your left hand first, and we will drink it directly when we return to the base after the game." Xiaotian started again with the "yin and yang strange energy" attribute that he suddenly learned recently.
Su Chen breathed a long sigh of relief and walked to the passage.
In fact, he was also slightly nervous.
However, now that he has been appointed as the captain of ym by Mengma, and he is the oldest in the team, he naturally has to take on a lot of responsibilities outside of the game.
Looking at the captain's armband on his right arm, Su Chen reached out and touched it, and then became serious.
"Okay, the jokes are over! Today is our first game in LPL. No matter what the result is, we must play our style!"
…
"Let us welcome the two teams in the opening game of the LPL Spring Split, rw and ym!"
In the stadium, the promotional animation for the S8 Spring Game rang out.
At the same time, two flags representing rw and ym were also slowly raised on the top of the venue.
"The first to appear were the five members of the Young Miracle club. Last winter, they broke the LSPL league's winning streak record, winning the winter championship with a wave of eight consecutive victories, and successfully advanced to the
lpl!"
The spotlights gather on the stage.
The ym team members walked out of the passage one by one.
"The first person to appear is ym's new captain, Jiang Keda, who serves as the top laner!"
When Su Chen came to the stage, cheers immediately erupted from the scene.
In the auditorium, various colorful fluorescent sticks and support light signs were also waved.
Su Chen, who was wearing a new black and red team uniform, waved to the audience, and his calm expression was also projected on the big screen behind him.
The director also gave a very detailed close-up of Su Chen's right shoulder. There was a pirate flag wearing a straw hat on it, which was YM's captain logo.
The situation is different from the winter games.
Many viewers at the scene today do not know much about ym.
After all, many people don’t watch the LSPL league.
After seeing Su Chen's appearance, some uninformed viewers couldn't help but discuss it.
"Wow, a new LPL player actually has so many fans, what's the origin?"
"Ym's new uniform is so handsome. The logo on his right shoulder that the photographer just took a picture of is the captain's armband, right?"
"This little brother is so handsome! I feel that his appearance is comparable to that of our brother-in-law. Is he from the Han country?"
Soon, the remaining four members of ym also appeared on the stage one after another under the introduction of the host.
After seeing Su Chen's calm temperament, Xiaotian, Zuo Zuo and the others looked a little green. Standing on the stage, they felt like they didn't know where to put their hands and feet.
"Next, let us welcome the members of the Rogue Warriors Club with another round of applause!"
The spotlight changed, and it was on the other side of the stage.
Holding the Korean-style permed rw single poison coin, with a confident smile, he walked towards the audience while waving his hand.
After he came on the stage, the cheers from the audience were obviously much louder than when Su Chen came on the stage just now.
"Gugu! Look here!"
"Come on Jin Gugu! Fuck you!"
"Rw rush!"
Poison Coin's popularity in LPL has skyrocketed since last year. On the one hand, it is because of his outstanding ability, and secondly, his amateur live broadcast career is also very successful.
Among all the helpers of lpl, Poison Coin is the most fluent in Chinese, and he has gained many fans because of his love for the whole life style.
After the poison coin, rw's ad player, Sima Laothief, appeared.
He still had that paralyzed face. After he came to the court, he waved his hand symbolically.
Although the popularity was not as high as that of the poisonous coin, the old thief Sima still won the cheers of the audience.
It can be said that the big reason why rw has high hopes from fans this year is because of the introduction of the double-C combination of Poison Coin and Sima Laothief.
Although it didn't go as fans hoped, Jiang Keda was introduced to form the Galaxy Battleship.
But then rw hired top laner Mouse from one of the Yonko's EDG, which provided a guarantee for the team's lower limit. It can be said that it is half a Galaxy Battleship team.
After the players from both teams took their seats at the game table.
The director also immediately cut into the "pre-match trash talk session".
This is also a traditional program of LPL, which allows the players on both sides to say harsh words to each other before the game starts, in order to increase the interest of the game.
On the big screen, Poison Coin, who was sitting on the bench, deliberately pretended to be confused: "I heard that our opponent tomorrow, YM, is quite strong. Can any brother tell me where I can find the regular season video of YM in the lpl last year?"
Ah, I want to analyze it in advance."
On the other side, Su Chen, who was smiling, responded simply: "It doesn't matter if you can't find it. After today's fight, the Internet will be full of your material. You can hide under the quilt in the middle of the night and peek."
Hearing Su Chen choke on the poisonous coin, he laughed happily.
After the trash talk session is over.
The director cut the camera to the commentary box.
The commentators for tonight's first scene are Wawa and Miller.
"Okay, after watching the trash talk between the two teams, I believe the audience in front of the computer screen is already looking forward to the first round of b03 in the opening game of the spring season today." Wawa said loudly.
"Yes! Both ym and rw are brand new teams for this year's lpl. One was promoted from lspl, and the other has been reorganized. Tonight's "Pirates" versus "Warriors"
"The b03 will be very interesting!" Miller also said.
Later, in the preparation stage before the game, the two also conducted a simple analysis of the S8 Spring Split version.
The biggest change in this year’s spring version is the recasting of the rune system.
The new rune system makes the laning advantage in the early and mid-term of the game even more important.
If we say that in the Incense Burner version of last year's World Championship, everyone's online development was postponed to the mid-to-late stage, waiting for the ADC to harvest the game.
Then in the version of the S8 Spring Split, with the deliberate changes of the designers, the rhythm will become faster, and the collision during the laning phase will become more and more intense!
soon.
The coaches of both sides decided who had the right to choose the side in the first game of b03 by guessing the heads and tails of the coin.
Coach Meng Ma successfully guessed, ym chose the blue side in the first game.
The big screen enters the bp screen!
First round of ban selection.
ym banned the big mouth, Luo, the prince.
RW, on the other hand, banned Blind Monk, Enchantress, and Green Steel Shadow.
"Judging from the ban positions in the first round, the two teams have different targets. YM is more restricting rw's bottom lane, while rw, in turn, also bans the rhythm heroes on ym's side.
"said the doll.
The ban ends.
The choice of blue square ym directly locked the ad hero ez!
In the new rune talent system, you can wear ez, which enlightens the main talent. It has many enhancements compared to the past. Its ability to rely on lanes and poke is also excellent in AD, and it is listed as the T1 level of the spring split by many teams.
adc.
When ym grabbed ez first, the red-haired first and second picks locked in Varus and Bronn.
A small shot showed the expressionless old thief Sima, and the live broadcast also showed his winning rate using Verus last season.
It's ym's turn for the second or third choice.
"If Braum is gone, we will go from the middle to the top first," Meng Ma walked to the middle of the game and looked at the notebook, "Left hand, Clockwork or Ryze, you choose one."
The left hand thought for a while: "Let's wind it up."
Meng Ma nodded and looked at Xiaotian.
"Is there any problem with getting a poodle?"
Lion Dog has also been slightly strengthened in the spring version. In the previous training games, Xiao Tian used this hero to good effect.
After Xiaotian nodded.
Ym’s second and third choices are Clockwork and Poodle.
After seeing ym go out of the middle and jungle first, rw's third choice also took out Ryze.
The second round of banning begins.
rw continued to target the top lane position and banned Sword Girl and Sword Girl.
On the ym side, Gnar and Mantis have been banned.
It was rw's turn for the fourth choice. After some discussion, wless finally settled on Pig Girl.
For protection, the last counter position was given to the top laner mouse.
At this time, we have reached the final stage of bp between both parties.
ym's fourth and fifth picks will confirm the two positions of top laner and support.
"If the opponent takes Braum, YM's support should take Karma. After all, in the bottom lane of LSPL, they often use the combination of ez plus Karma." Wawa analyzed the data.
As he said, on the fourth floor of ym, we took down Kalma first.
Right now, only the last choice is left, Jiang Keda in the top lane position.
On the big screen, head coach Meng Ma walked to Su Chen and discussed with him for a while.
The window on the fifth floor of ym first showed the image of Sword Princess. After hesitating for a few seconds, it finally locked on the ocean disaster, Gangplank!
"Oh? Ym's top lane position has finally been selected, locking the captain! That's interesting." Watou smiled.
The hero Captain is now regarded as the representative hero of Jiangsu University of Science and Technology.
After all, in the finals of last year's winter competition, in the last game of b05, he used the hero Captain and played several classic shots of a bucket of blood.
Led ym to defeat vg.
The game where Jiang Keda used the captain also created various hot memes about "One Piece" that were later triggered by YM.
rw's last choice, as everyone expected, directly took out the ancestral top lane tree!
As soon as this choice came out, the audience burst into laughter.
After all, he is the top laner from edg, and Dashu has a unique skill passed down from his ancestors.
The lineups of both sides were finally established.
Top lane: Captain vs Big Tree
Jungle: Lion Dog vs Pig Girl
Mid laner: Clockwork vs Ryze
Bottom lane: ez Karma vs Verusbronn.
Games start!
In the live broadcast, the canyon was cut from a close-up view to a distant view.
At the beginning, both sides' positions were very stable.
In the middle, Clockwork and Ryze were guarding the defense tower.
YM on the blue side chose to let the poodle open red in the bottom lane, while ez and Karma guarded outside the red buff pit.
As for the red-haired rw, he also asked the pig girl to activate the red buff in the upper half of the area, while the big tree was on the side ready to help clear the jungle.
Verus and Bronn, on the other hand, were squatting in the grass on the bottom lane closest to the blue side.
At this point, the camera is on the road.
The captain with the ID "ym jkd", holding a musket, has arrived within the triangular grass on the red square.
Seeing Jiang Keda's position, Wawa and Miller in the commentary box immediately laughed.
"Jiang Keda's position in the triangular grass is a bit unique. With his ID covered, I thought he was on the red side?"
"Indeed, his squatting position is indeed quite aggressive. I rarely see LPL top laners squatting in this position."
"This brother just came to lpl. He doesn't talk about any etiquette. He just does it when we meet him."
1 minute and 38 seconds.
Helped Pig Girl fight a wave of wild mice, and now controlled the big tree, preparing to go online.
In the red square shot, the field of view in the triangular grass is black.
When the big tree passed by the grass, the captain holding the musket fired directly at the big tree with a shot. Then he walked out of the grass and chopped down the big tree with a flaming knife!
The audience immediately became agitated.
"The army line hasn't even come online yet, and there's been a wave of collisions on the road!" Wataba said loudly.
The director also immediately locked the camera on the top road.
Mouse didn't expect that the captain would dare to squat so deep, so he released a Q [Thorn Blow] directly behind him, successfully slowed down the captain, and then slowly walked towards the defense tower.
However, the captain did not give up, but chose to walk up from the triangular grass, as if he were the hero of the red side, walking up the line with the soldiers from under the defense tower of the big tree.
This scene also amused the audience in the live broadcast room.
