The offseason in the past few days has already made countless players impatient.
Before the game even started, there was already a long queue in front of the stadium.
The players gathered together in twos and threes, talking and laughing.
There are also some who are always worried about today's game and are absent-minded when chatting with friends.
RNG vs SKT.
These two teams have played against each other many times on the field.
In the matchup of Wave 5, SKT was the team standing at the end without exception.
Therefore, everyone in RNG is very unsure about today's game.
Some people hypnotize themselves and think that SKT will be very weak this year because SKT was beaten by the little rabbit.
But when I actually encounter it, I will still be instinctively frightened.
Everyone at IG stayed in the training room at the base and sat together to watch the game.
They originally wanted to watch the game live, but considering the possibility of being surrounded, they gave up the idea.
"RNG still has a lot of fans, it feels like it's much more than us."
Prince Ning looked at the crowd of dark spectators at the scene and the dazzling array of support items, and sighed: "How many times do you think the fight will start today?"
"It's hard to say, it still depends on the state of RNG."
Rookie shook his head slightly: "SKT's state in the quarter-finals was average. If RNG's state is good enough, the chances are pretty good. Li Luo, what do you think?"
Realizing that his teammates were looking at him, Li Luoshi smiled and shook his head: "SKT and RNG are both teams with distinct styles. Their styles have different ways of winning. Who can bring out the best in their own team?"
, whoever can win.”
"From a macro perspective, SKT this season is very bad at playing in the early and mid-game. What they are good at is the late game and even the late game."
Li Luo analyzed slowly: "RNG is just the opposite. They couldn't see the ancient dragon in the summer split."
Li Luo's words made all his teammates think deeply.
"Indeed, RNG's strength this season is in the mid-term. To be honest, their early game is average and not very good."
What did King Ning say: "The jungle compensation mechanism allows Xiang Guo to have a lot of room to play in the early stage when he gets rhythmic heroes, so I guess the key to RNG's BP against SKT should be the prince. If Xiang Guo
If the pot can't get the prince, he can only get the blind monk. RNG shouldn't dare to take risks with other heroes like spiders and mantises. Once the effect is not produced, it will be useless."
Li Luo nodded slightly.
Prince Ning's analysis was quite thorough.
Hun-i is actually a relatively weak point in this year's SKT. Nicknamed "Burui", his play style is very rough and can easily disrupt the team's rhythm in the mid-term.
But his weak point will be greatly covered up when faced with a defensive top laner like Letme.
Recalling the five lineups RNG put out for the S7 World Championship before the rebirth, except for the one where Uzi chose Vayne, which was relatively risky, the other four games were all tactical systems planned by RNG in advance.
If you want to get a lineup, you need to consider not only whether the lineup is strong, but also whether the players can bring out the strength of the lineup.
The game between RNG and SKT kicked off.
After the first and second games ended, the score between the two sides became 1-1.
The atmosphere on the field gradually became anxious.
When RNG took out Vayne in the third game, the audience cheered thunderously.
"Guigui, take Vayne against the cannon, how brave you are."
Prince Ning secretly smacked his tongue.
Even with his personality, he felt that Vayne was a bit too risky.
But in the third game, RNG relied on the overall teamwork to win the game and get the match point first.
"It's so exciting. I feel like RNG has a chance."
Everyone on IG also became excited.
They are both teams in the same division. They were brothers before the collision. There is nothing wrong with that.
I'll talk about other things when we actually meet.
"There is indeed a chance, but they will be on the red side again in the fourth set."
Baolan said.
Most teams in this World Championship will be affected by the red and blue sides.
Judging from all the games in the S game as a whole, the winning rate of the blue side is exaggeratedly high, while the winning rate of the red side is frighteningly low.
Only a team with such diverse tactics as IG will not be limited by the side selection.
But RNG is different.
Everyone at IG can see that the tactical ideas implemented by RNG in this Wave 5 are very thorough.
They will definitely demolish Xia Luo when playing on the blue side, Xia Luo is almost locked in a fixed ban position.
Destroy the clouds and steal the wind.
Luo Fang to SKT.
This is the fixed tactical BP executed by RNG in the first three moves.
After winning the first game with Feng Nu with Mouse, SKT immediately eliminated Feng Nu in the second game.
So RNG did the next best thing, grabbing Luo, and using Luo to match the mouse. At the same time, RNG banned the very bright pig girl in the first fragrant pot to avoid being taken by SKT.
Their idea is very clear, which is to get at least two points that can actively lead the rhythm while containing the initiative of the SKT team.
In RNG's system, the easiest points to take the initiative in setting the rhythm are Uzi and Xiangguo.
RNG completely abandoned Xia Luo in this wave of 5 thinking.
They don't take it themselves.
At the same time, I don’t plan to let SKT take it.
What they want to play is a fast and rhythmic mid-game, aiming to win the game before thirty-five minutes to prevent SKT from dragging the situation into the later stage.
Xiangguo's gank supports the team's early rhythm.
The Rat teamed up with Shen in the top lane to support the rhythm of stealing in the mid-term.
Xiaohu chooses heroes like Malzahar to take on part of the team's output in the later stages.
This is the division of labor of RNG.
The second game's incendiary nightmare upset this balance.
It was difficult for Nightmare to get things done in the early stage, so they chose to let Xiao Ming's Luo take on the heavy responsibility of pacing.
But it turns out that this style of play is not good enough and has limitations.
Therefore, in the third game, RNG chose to pass the ball to Xiaohu.
Xiaohu’s Ryze takes on some of the rhythmic responsibilities.
Facts also proved that Xiaohu’s Ryze’s performance in the third game did not disappoint.
After Vayne, who was weak in the early stage, gained kills with the help of her teammates, Uzi stood up and shouldered the team's output burden in the middle and late stages.
So RNG won again.
What makes Li Luo sigh is that the two sides obviously did not change their systems in the first three games, but the battle in the details of BP was dazzling.
From the audience's perspective, what the audience can see is extremely limited.
It is not difficult to see from the comments on the barrage post that in the eyes of most viewers, letme is a mixed bag.
Xiangguo often gets caught due to being too aggressive.
Xiaohu can't restrict faker Galio's wandering, real food.
As this version requires the bot lane duo of both sides to take on 50% of the team's output, whoever loses will take the blame.
But is this really the case?
The casting of letme is very critical in Li Luo's opinion. Although the leader of the rhythm in the mid-term is the mouse, without his help and protection, the mouse cannot lead the rhythm.
Xiangguo, on the other hand, must find every opportunity to set the pace. No one dares to be 100% sure that the opportunity they find is right.
Although Xiaohu's Malzahar did not suppress Faker, his performance in the third game also proved himself.
This is a whole team.
A whole team fighting for victory.
RNG, which won the third game, still used a similar lineup.
But this lineup...
Use Prince and Rambo's wave as the first mover, Rat and Ryze as the main output points, and Star Mom will protect them.
When the lineup was finalized, King Ning frowned: "The control ability is too weak."
"It's too weak. If SKT is struggling, it will be difficult to start."
Rookie also nodded heartily.
The controls are too unstable.
The only possibility for this lineup to achieve excellent results is if the prince recruits enough people.
Then RNG's output will explode instantly.
And RNG did find this opportunity.
That is, when Xiangguo's prince was pushed to the high ground in the later period, he flashed three backhand EQs to pull him away. With the silence of Xingma's E skill, the big mouth trapped in the bowl could not flash, and then Rambo's ultimate move
and the rat's explosive output directly melted SKT.
The whole place was cheering.
But this wave of attacks... treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.
There are no map resources.
There was no way to push back. KT learned a lesson from every mistake, and they never made any serious mistakes again after the previous wave of mistakes.
As Bang used Lulu's acceleration effect under the highland tower to kill Uzi's rats with a wave of flashes, RNG's situation completely collapsed.
Both sides were forced into the fifth game.
Both the audience and the three commentators in the commentary box felt a little heavy at this moment.
"Maybe one day, I said maybe... maybe one day, we will lose confidence in League of Legends e-sports, because the domination of South Korea continues to this day, but I don't think it is today."
"Also, there may be a day when these players we love can no longer stand on the stage, but that's not today."
"RNG fought hard today to face SKT in the decisive game! We are preparing to enter Summoner's Rift."
As the remembered voice slowly sounded, the fans at the scene adjusted their mood and cheered for RNG with their loudest voices.
Fans are limited in what they can do.
By the fifth game, tactics could no longer take the lead.
At this time, the real competition is the mentality of the players and their ability to perform on the spot.
When Xiang Guo was caught on the top lane and flashed just shy of CD, the mentality of countless RNG fans collapsed first.
"it's over."
Li Luo sighed.
Experiencing it again left him with mixed emotions.
That time, he was the audience.
But this time, Li Luo is a professional player.
Different identities naturally bring different feelings to Li Luo.
Hook×hook××.
RNG got the match point first and was chased for two consecutive games. SKT once again came to the end from a full wave of 5.
"SKT..."
Li Luo's eyes flickered.
Before rebirth, Capital Bird's Nest, Korean Civil War.
Li Luo vowed in his heart that history would not repeat itself this year!
