After taking antidiarrheal medicine, Brother Ma's complexion improved slightly.
Afterwards, omg everyone boarded the bus and prepared to leave for the group stage competition site.
A gymnasium in Jiangcheng, where the S7 Global Finals group stage is held.
After the two games in Group C where rng is, there are two games in Group B.
The first is the bo1 match between Longzhu and imt.
The imt team is the second seed in the North American division, and LPL viewers are generally unfamiliar with this team.
But there is still someone whom I am relatively familiar with, that is their top laner f.
F is a Korean aid, and she is nicknamed Princess. She is indeed quite handsome.
f played in LGD before, and also went to the S5 global finals with LGD.
This team of imt has a nickname, called [Avengers].
Except for F, several other members of this team are also discarded players that the previous team did not want.
These guys formed a team this year, and they directly advanced to the global finals as the second seed in North America, which is quite inspiring.
However, the stage of this game is destined not to belong to this "Avengers".
Because in this game they faced the No. 1 seed of LCK, the number one favorite to win the global finals.
The feeling after the whole game is that Longzhu team is stronger than imt in all aspects, and Longzhu made no mistakes throughout the whole process.
In 30 minutes, Longzhu won the game.
From the perspective of the imt team, the whole game gave people a serious feeling of powerlessness.
After watching this game, viewers all over the world felt that he was worthy of being the No. 1 seed in the LCK and was indeed very strong.
After this game, half of the six games on the first match day of the group stage have been played.
According to the old tradition of LPL, it is time to change the commentary in the second half.
The commentator for the next three games today will be old partner Doll Miller.
When Lu Chen boarded the bus to the competition venue, the second game of Group H, the fourth B1 game of the day, had just started.
The two sides are fnc and the Vietnamese team gam.
Being bored in the car, Lu Chen took out his mobile phone and watched the live broadcast of the game.
For the majority of viewers, it is generally felt that the upcoming game has little value.
Because one of the two opponents is only the third seed in the European Division, and the other is from the Wild Card Division, it is difficult to say how powerful they are.
But Lu Chen always felt that the Vietnamese might come up with some tricks. Although he preferred fnc to win, he knew that in bo1 games, sometimes strange tricks played a more important role than hard power. He couldn't do it today.
A good FNC will capsize in the gutter.
Sure enough, the two sides with the lowest value on the first match day played the most exciting and entertaining game so far today.
When the gam selected the midfielder of Cassadinga Dream Demon, Lu Chen felt that this game was not easy.
The gam team was, at that time, an extremely rare team with a jungle position as its core. Long before the wild core version, they had already reversed the version and played wild core.
In their own Vietnam League, the whole team often keeps jungler Levi to play.
However, the level of the Vietnam League is too low, and casual gamming will result in random killings, so there is not much reference.
But today, this group of Vietnamese showed their unique understanding of the game to the global audience in the global finals.
The red side's gam starts with five people grouping together to have a field of view on both the upper and lower rivers.
Then, when the wild monsters were about to spawn, top laner Galio and jungler Dream Demon stood in front of f6.
The wild monsters were refreshed, and Galio began to help the Dream Demon fight f6.
The top laner opens f6 for the jungler at the beginning. This is normal and common.
But when the camera moved up slightly, it was discovered that gam's bottom lane duo were buffing themselves with red buffs.
The audience was a little confused!
The jungler opens at F6, and at the same time, he helps the jungler in the bottom lane to hit the red buff to residual health. This is also normal.
Isn’t it just a regular jungle king start?
But the problem is that gam is on the red side.
At this time, all four of gam's top and bottom players are in the upper half of the jungle.
What is this for?
Some viewers who react quickly have already noticed something.
Is this a line change at the start?
But the problem is that since the end of S6 and the addition of first-blood towers and other mechanisms, the previous mainstream line-changing play at the beginning has gone out of business.
By the S7 season, almost no team would change lanes at the beginning.
It is rare to see a line change at the beginning of a game in a hundred games.
Sure enough, after the two players in the bottom lane of gam defeated the red buff until there was only a trace of blood left, they went straight to the top lane. The dream demon who had just finished f6 to level two came over and ate the red buff again with a knife.
Dashu, the top laner on FNC, suddenly found Lulu and Xiaopao. He was caught off guard and was beaten to a trace of blood, and had to go home in the first level.
On the other side, gam's top laner Galio was not online yet, so he followed the Dream Demon to help him clear the jungle.
In just 2 minutes and 40 seconds, the Dream Demon had already reached level four.
The top laners of both sides are still pitiful.
After clearing the lower half of the wild area, Dream Demon and Galio came to their own bottom lane tower. FNC's bottom lane has no control line. At this time, a large wave of troops will enter the tower.
In just two minutes, the Dream Demon took both lanes and pawns.
FNC's response was very quick. Knowing that the Dream Demon could not comfortably eat this wave of troops, they immediately called the midfielder to cross the tower. After the large wave of troops from the bottom lane entered the tower, FNC's midfielder also arrived.
A wave of four guarantees two.
After taking action, fnc's top laner Da Shu and gam's mid laner Kassadin both came to the bottom lane and under the tower, and the situation instantly became five-on-three.
FNC killed Galio to get first blood, and then drove away Dream Demon and Kassadin without letting them gain experience.
But FNC didn't make any money this time. All five of them were in the bottom lane. At this time, the game was less than 4 minutes, and gam's cannons had already demolished FNC's top tower, leaving only one-third of its health.
I feel sorry for my sister-in-law's big tree. It's been 4 minutes and she still has 0 CS, and her level is still level one.
The Vietnamese team's self-destructive start seems to have cost them first blood, but FNC's early experience has already exploded.
It's only been 4 minutes, and except for the mid laner, FNC's other four positions are already one level behind.
The Dream Demon took two more waves of lanes in the bottom lane, and then returned to the city to get equipment.
At this time, the second wave of wild monsters in the Dream Demon's own jungle area was refreshed, but the Dream Demon had already reached level 5.
The Dream Demon goes straight to f6. After clearing F6, kill the three wolves. The Dream Demon... is at level six.
The game time is only 5 minutes and 08 seconds.
This time point is too exaggerated!
Among the mid laners on both sides, Kassadin is only level 4, Ryze has just reached level 5, and the worst FNC top laner, Dashu, has just reached level 2.
At this time, the FNC bottom lane duo was crossing the line to bully Galio, who was only at level 3. Who would have expected that the Dream Demon had already reached level 6.
As soon as the lights were turned off, Galio took the lead, and the Dream Demon's ultimate move flew directly to the fnc support, killing him instantly.
Then he chased Ou Cheng's flash.
However, FNC's Ryze and Dashu had already supported and outflanked them. The top, middle and bottom three of FNC killed gam Ueno. However, in the two-on-three situation, two more Dream Demons were replaced, who were far ahead in level.
The Dream Demon started with three heads, and its level economy was significantly ahead of the game, and could no longer be stopped.
After these few waves of fighting in the first six minutes, FNC was completely dragged into a chaotic rhythm by the Vietnamese.
gam relies on the big advantage of Dream Demon, and fnc is getting worse and worse.
In just 24 minutes, everyone in FNC was wiped out on their own high ground and bulldozed by a wave of gam.
In the end, the Vietnamese managed to get the job done. The cannon had already achieved four kills, and mid laner Kassadin flashed out to snatch five kills.
This kind of exciting game where the whole audience was fighting. Although there was no LPL team participating, the audience at the game still cheered non-stop.
As a melon-eater, Lu Chen also enjoyed watching it, but it ended too quickly, only about twenty minutes, and the bus had not yet arrived at the competition venue.
While having fun, I can't help but worry about Brother Ma's condition. I wonder if he can withstand it?
...
FNC lost to the Vietnamese team, which can be regarded as the first upset in the group stage.
After this game, the two games of Group B are finished today, and then there are the two games of Group A where omg is located.
The first game was bo1 between skt and c9.
Before the game started, the entire omg team had arrived at the competition venue.
But as soon as he walked into the venue, Ma Ge's face didn't look right.
A staff member took Ma Ge to find the bathroom in a hurry.
Yes, the medicine doesn't seem to be very effective.
Pulled again!
The team leader worriedly led everyone to the lounge, and Mingzhe began to prepare some final arrangements before the game.
After a while, Brother Ma returned to the lounge with a depressed look.
When he sat on the chair, it was obvious that Marco's legs were shaking a little.
When Brother Ma calmed down, Mingzhe looked at him with concern and said, "Is it okay? If not, don't hold on, let Jiekou go up and fight first."
When Jiekou on the side heard this, his expression changed and he stopped predicting, but in the end he didn't say anything.
He is a jungler. Usually when filling positions in the queue, the top laner, support laner, and even mid laner can bring out a few heroes to mess around, but this adc, he is really not good at it.
"I should... still be able to withstand it!" Brother Ma said slowly.
Hearing this, Jiekou breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, if Brother Ma really can't fight today, then if he goes up to play ad, he will just take the blame. Not everyone can afford to take the blame.
But as soon as Brother Ma finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he rushed out of the lounge.
It happened again...
While waiting for Marco to come back from the bathroom again, head coach Mingzhe sat silently on his chair, wondering what he was thinking.
When the coach didn't speak, the players naturally followed suit.
On the TV screen hanging on the wall of the lounge, the game between skt and c9 has already started, but no one has the intention to take a look at it at this time.
A few minutes later, Brother Ma came back from the bathroom again, his face obviously worse than before.
Just as Brother Ma was about to say something, Mingzhe suddenly stood up from his chair as if he had made up his mind.
"Stop insisting, your health is important, let Jiekou do this!"
The old thief Sima, who was participating in the World Championship for the first time, originally wanted to persevere, but suddenly his expression changed and he rushed out the door again.
Mingzhe said to the team leader: "No, the problem with the old thief seems to be quite big. We really can't force him to join in this game. People are more important than the game. You can send the old thief to the hospital later. I can handle the rest of the things here."
."
The team leader nodded and went out.
Mingzhe walked up to Jiekou again, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Adjust your physical and mental state, and be ready to appear in a moment."
I have no choice but to put Jiekou on the shelf now.
Not to mention that omg does not have a substitute for the AD position. Even if there is, the substitute in the six-man roster reported before the game is jiekou. No matter which position you want to replace, you can only use jiekou.
Jiekou knew that the pot would not escape today, so he nodded helplessly.
By the way, he glanced at Lu Chen with a look full of resentment.
Of course Lu Chen knew what Jiekou was complaining about, and thought to himself: 'I'm also very helpless. Everyone has eaten, and it's no problem. But Brother Ma is acting like crazy at this time. Can you blame me?'
It is not advisable to believe in metaphysics!
After thinking about it, it's no wonder that Jiekou is resentful. This is indeed a bit too difficult for him.
But at this moment, Lu Chen suddenly remembered the operation of the IM team in the S6 Global Finals.
It was during the group stage of the S6 World Championship, and I was reported to someone for complaining about IM's support road ranking, and was officially banned for one game by Riot Games as a punishment.
The substitute in IM's six-man roster is a midfielder, not a support player.
Then im played a Bosao operation.
In the group match when Road was suspended, IM sent a substitute mid laner to play in the midfield unit. The original starting mid laner went to jungle in that round, and the original starting jungler went to support in that round.
The most outrageous thing is that IM also defeated Flash Wolf in that game.
omg In this situation, I am afraid that teammates in other positions will have to sacrifice themselves and let substitute jiekou play his familiar jungle position.
After all, Jiekou has been a substitute for so long and has not played in a game. Forcing him to play a position he is not good at is afraid that he will not be able to maintain his mentality.
‘When it comes to taking the ad position, is there anyone in the team who is more suitable than me?’ Lu Chen thought to himself.
Just when Mingzhe asked Jiekou which ADC heroes he knew, Lu Chen suddenly said: "Coach, I have a suggestion!"
"Tell me about it!"
Mingzhe is a very pragmatic coach. Since it is an established fact that the old thief Sima cannot win this game, he will not feel sorry for himself, but will immediately start thinking about the next countermeasures.
Lu Chen did not answer directly, but looked at world6 and said: "Yutian, I remember that you can play big trees and big insects. I think your two heroes can often get together in the Korean server."
"That's right!" world6 didn't understand what Lu Chen wanted to express for a while, but he still said: "It's not bad. When I fill up the top lane, I still have a stone man and a big kidney (Shen) to mix points."
Mingzhe next to him raised his eyebrows, as if he knew what Lu Chen was going to say.
"Coach, I think so." Lu Chen said: "Let Yutian go to the top lane and play as a tank, and Jiekou should play his best jungle position."
"As for AD, let me play it!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Wu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly lit up his eyes and said, "That's right! How could I have forgotten this!"
"Coach, Lu Chen's adc is really good at playing. He is a weird operator. I think it is most suitable for him to take charge of this adc."
Mingzhe adjusted his glasses, nodded heavily, and said, "Now it seems that adjusting the position as Lu Chen said is indeed the best choice at the moment."
Seeing Mingzhe nod, Jiekou next to him breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's just..." Mingzhe asked worriedly: "I know you often take adc top lane in ranked, but the game rhythms in the top lane and the bottom lane are completely different!"
Mingzhe really wasn't too worried about Lu Chen's operation, but there was a big difference between the same hero in the single lane and the double lane, and he was afraid that Lu Chen wouldn't be able to adapt.
