After losing the game, KZ walked off the stage in despair.
They didn't know how they lost until the handshake was over.
After losing last time, I was still talking grandiose words, but now it didn't take long for me to fall into the quagmire again.
After losing EDG, lose FW.
These two teams from the same country gave them hits one after another within one day.
It's okay to lose to EDG.
But lost to FW...
They can't accept it!
KZ's coach's face turned dark.
Yesterday, domestic media were still hyping their 2/0 start, saying that KZ might advance to the knockout rounds without losing a single game in the group stage.
Now they go directly to 2/2.
The situation in the first round of the group stage is now very clear.
FW4/0 ranked first in the group.
EDG followed closely behind with a record of 3/0, also without losing a game.
And in this fourth game they will face the TL team from North America.
The TL team's start... also had 3 and 0.
But comparing EDG's record, theirs is the opposite.
And currently TL is the only team that has lost to Vietnam EVS.
Although they subconsciously hope that EDG will lose.
But reason tells them that the possibility of EDG losing to TL is extremely slim.
Despite this, KZ still managed to adjust to a good state, watching the game from the background and cheering for the TL team.
Although TL has been losing, it does not rule out that they found a way to win the game after losing three games in a row. Such examples are not uncommon in the past.
The match between the two sides soon kicked off.
In the commentary box, three commentators were analyzing the game.
Judging from the comments of the commentators, they are still quite low-key.
In fact, for quite a few people, the more they have, the more they will cherish them.
Of course, that's assuming you haven't had it before.
The LPL division is the best example.
The LPL, which has always been the background of other competition regions, suddenly became famous after winning the championship in the Bird's Nest. However, for the casters of the LPL division, their inherent humility means that they will never evolve to be as confident as the Korean casters.
They cherish their hard-won achievements.
Sun Yalong obviously did a lot of homework before participating in this commentary.
He looked at the players on both sides who were debugging, and said: "TL team... To be honest, I think their personal strength is there, but they are a bit out of touch with the version. They have played three private games in M
In the middle, the senior brother, who is the core point, won two sets of the fortune teller and one set of the policewoman."
"That's not to say that these three heroes can't be released, but the key point is... letting an arry-type AD like Senior Brother play functional AD, doesn't it feel a bit like using a cannon to swat mosquitoes?"
Sun Yalong can be considered a player of a similar age to his senior brother.
Sun Yalong actually admires his senior brother who is still competing on the field at such an age.
In the three games that Big Brother lost, the KDA was actually not bad.
But the hero's style... is a bit too crooked!
"Well... to be honest, I feel that TL's problem is not with the senior brother, but with their mid laner. Pobelter, the mid laner of the TL team, is a very standard mage player. Most of what he is good at revolves around clockwork.
, a hero like Ryze who needs a lot of time to develop in the early stage to support the team fight in the later stage."
Guan Zeyuan obviously has a certain understanding of TL’s mid laner: “The only functional hero this player is good at is Karma, so when they get Karma, they will choose the policewoman to play speed push.
When we get to Karma, the mid laner can only bear the burden of the core in the late game, which means that the senior brother needs functional heroes to support the early and mid-term."
"In the selection of top lane heroes in this version, although there are many heroes that Impat can play, if he chooses a late-game core, TL's rhythm will be too late. In addition, the version and their jungle position are x-thie heroes.
Chi also has conflicts... TL is quite difficult to be honest."
Hearing Guan Zeyuan's words, Sika opened her mouth.
He... lost it.
But then I thought about it, and what Guan Zeyuan said actually made sense.
TL's player equipment and the system they are good at playing are out of touch with this version.
There is no reason for EDG to flip over on them.
"The players from both sides are ready. The BP has officially started. The blue side is the TL team, and the red side is the EDG team! Have you noticed that EDG really likes to choose the red side in the first round of this group match?"
To Sika's surprise, bans from both sides were announced one after another.
TL, who was on the blue side, took the initiative to kill Karma and Troll.
Then he added Kai'Sa in the third ban position.
In contrast, the EDG team's BP is very normal.
Captain, Crow.
One is the top laner core that Imapat is quite good at and is suitable for the version. Crow is one of the few fat tanks suitable for TL teams.
In the first three games of TL's group stage, all the opponents they encountered showed great respect by banning the Ravens.
EDG is no exception.
They have no reason to play with themselves, and EDG will not relax at all when it comes to taking things seriously.
In the third ban position, the EDG team pressed Braum.
This hand against Braum showed EDG's thinking in this game.
They want to take Orn.
In this situation TL must be forced to make a choice.
impat can also play Ornn.
But the hero Ornn is not very suitable for the TL team's system.
The reason why they pressed down the troll was because they were actually prepared for their opponent to choose Ornn.
"On TL's side... the prince was picked first on the first floor! X fan thie, the player's best hero besides barrels, is the prince. There's nothing wrong with grabbing it first. On EDG's side... there's nothing wrong with Ornn on the first floor.
Question, second floor...Eh? EDG chose a female police officer??!"
Guan Zeyuan's voice suddenly rose.
The policewoman's appearance was a surprise to him.
You must know that since the beginning of the spring split, Li Luo, the tool hero Li Luo who won the world championship last year, has never been used again.
In the eyes of the public, Li Luo has not completely abandoned this hero. The root problem should be with EDG. EDG in the S8 Spring Split does not seem to like playing the speed boost system.
But in fact, judging from EDG's team configuration, they can theoretically use the speed push system.
There are two conditions for using the speed promotion system, and any one of these two conditions can be met.
The first condition is that there is a pressure-resistant path in the team.
It's best to hit the road.
Because in the early stage, the female police officer must change lanes and continue pushing the tower after completing the advancement of the first tower.
At this time, the top laner has to make some sacrifices. This is the case for the RNG team of 7.
Another way is that all three lines have relatively top suppressive power. Before the female policeman destroys the next tower, the health lines of the opponent's defense towers in the upper two lanes are also being consumed simultaneously.
In this way, after the female police officer completes the destruction of a tower, no matter which route she switches to, she can continuously break the tower in the shortest time. The IG team of 7 completed the speed push system in this way, so IG's opponents at that time often
Within two minutes after the first defense tower is destroyed, the other two defense towers will also be destroyed.
EDG can undoubtedly meet the first condition, and Jin Gong can be sacrificed for the team.
When they saw EDG finalizing the female police officer, both the senior AD player on the TL team and the AD players from other teams frowned subconsciously.
EDG has an additional system that they can use, which is naturally not good news for them.
Hiding the female police system until M is private.
mean!
There are also some players, such as everyone in the KZ team, who still have hope.
They hoped that EDG was just practicing their lineup, and then they were beaten by TL.
However, when they saw that the TL team had finalized the fate master on the second floor, there was a wailing sound in the KZ lounge.
"Why? Why? Why is this TL staring at the fortune-breaker? On the third floor... Jace? This..."
After calming down, everyone in KZ looked at the two choices made by the TL team and looked a little familiar.
Aren't these...the two heroes they brought out in the game against EDG?
What, did TL learn from their experience with EDG? Are they going to try it again with a lineup similar to theirs, 2, 2, 3, 4?
For a moment, everyone in KZ was too embarrassed to call TL stupid.
When it was the EDG team's turn to choose, the EDG team's third floor quickly chose the Blind Sin for Xiaotian!
The two sides entered the second round of bp.
TL began to block and quickly promote heroes that are stronger when paired with the policewoman.
Soft assistants like Feng Nu and Xing Ma were directly eliminated by them.
The EDG team quickly pressed down the golden crispy chicken and Victor that TL mid laners are good at.
Both of these heroes can appear in today's version, and the TL mid laner can often produce as stable an effect as an old dog when used.
Since TL can't use the first three hands, they naturally can't get the last two hands.
After banning these two heroes, EDG grabbed Ryze in a very dirty manner.
Although this hero is not the one Pubelber plays the most, it is definitely his favorite and the one he is best at.
When this hero was locked down by EDG, pobelter was obviously helpless.
Finally, TL locked Malzahar on the fourth floor.
Their newly introduced Korean support player olleh has finalized Thresh.
"olleh took Thresh... If I remember correctly, this hero should be his unique hero. TL did make some adjustments in this game. Their lineup as a whole seems to have good control, good teamfighting, and
Thresh's lantern can save people, and Jace can poke, it feels pretty good!"
Guan Zeyuan looked at the lineup that TL came up with, which was obviously very different from their previous lineup, and opened his mouth to comment.
"It's really okay, especially the ability to control instant kills at fixed points. It's very strong. I feel like their lineup is a bit stitched together. Part of it is borrowed from KZ, and part of it is borrowed from EDG. It's interesting, but EDG only has one support left.
Choice, EDG chose Lulu on the fifth floor when the team had Ornn and could start a team!"
"Lulu is paired with a policewoman. In this case, EDG needs to focus on the early bot lane laning!"
Sun Yalong was looking forward to it when he said these words.
Regardless of the version or the team's tactical needs, Li Luo and Meiko have not chosen this kind of hero combination that is very strong in the early stage and has strong suppression for some time.
Although... when Li Luo gets a weak hero, he often puts enough pressure on his opponent, and even kills him on the spot.
But after all, this type of hero does not bring as much suppression to the opponent as the simple and crude oppression hero like the policewoman does!
"The lineups of both sides have been finalized! The blue team TL team, Jayce in the top lane, Jungle Prince, Malzahar in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo is Destiny Master and Thresh!"
"The red side EDG team, Ornn in the top lane, Lee Sin in the jungle, Ryze in the mid lane, and the bottom duo is a policewoman paired with Lulu!"
"The players on both sides are ready, let's enter the showdown between TL and EDG together!"
