"Everyone should focus on this, and any decision-making must be made in the most calm state."
Edgar did not step down immediately after closing his notebook.
In fact, Edgar rarely comforts the players after the BP is over, because he trusts his own abilities and believes that the players he has trained do not need to comfort themselves during the game.
Do what you have to do well.
But this time Edgar really didn't have any confidence.
On the one hand, it is because he feels that what he does in BP does not have any substantial advantages.
On the other hand, at this time, all the GEN players and even him, the coach, were really under a lot of pressure.
This is a home game.
If we lose this game when the group stage has become 0/1, those somewhat extreme fans will not need to guess the time of their return home and the mode of transportation they will take like last year.
Fans only need to wait at the entrance of the venue to block them.
Putting aside everything else, this safety issue also needs to be carefully considered.
Edgar remembers clearly that when he was playing in China last year, he saw something on the Internet that he thought was very interesting at the time.
If a team loses the opening game of its group, then the second game will be a crucial game.
After all, once the group stage starts with 0/2, it means that there will be no room for error in the next four group stage matches.
Only by winning all four games can you have a 100% chance of qualifying without looking at anyone's eyes.
And if it starts with 0/2, then the third round will be a life and death battle.
After all, 3/3 still has the possibility of qualifying.
But if it starts at 0/3, the fourth round will be a battle of honor.
Only 2/4 of them have the theoretical possibility of qualifying and will become their only hope.
At this time, the team has transcended life and death. We can only gamble on the team's honor and try our best. If we don't succeed, we will die.
Further on...
Only the train station is left.
The journey from Busan to Seoul is short.
But if it really comes to that point, it may take a long time for the players' wounded hearts to heal.
No matter what, they have to win this game.
The fans at the scene were cheering them on!
The GEN players nodded seriously.
Most of those who play in this team are veteran players.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for experienced players like them to feel nervous in the group stage of the S competition.
But this time, the obviously accelerated heartbeat told them that the long-lost nervous feeling was back.
As the cheering sound belonging to GEN sounded at the scene, all ten heroes from both sides entered the Summoner's Rift.
The first time they entered the canyon, the players on both sides took their respective positions and immediately focused their attention on the Xiaolong Pit.
Earth dragon!
Looking at the bright marks on the wall, the commanding players from both sides began to frown and think.
The attributes of the first dragon can greatly influence the tactical focus of both sides.
A type of dragon like the Earth Dragon that is very good at controlling map resources and pushing down towers is undoubtedly the most popular little dragon attribute in the current version.
In this case, as long as it is the operation team, the priority of this first dragon will be raised.
Guessing the opponent's half area is also a top priority in the early stages of the game.
"We don't want to enter at Level 1."
On the GEN team's side, assistant CoreJJ said in a deep voice.
It stands to reason that since he has Braum and GEN has two shooters, they have a clear advantage in this first-level team.
However, Sion on the EDG team has become a huge variable in the team battle. GEN does not want to take this risk. After all, apart from the auxiliary Luo, among the EDG heroes, no matter who has the kills, the other heroes will make money.
It may greatly change the early situation.
On the other hand, on their side, only Qian Jue and Xia got kills, which would be of great help in the early stage of the game.
Among the other three, only Lulu's kills can be converted into a substantial laning advantage. Even so, after the two sides level up, Lulu, as an auxiliary hero who assists teammates in output, will have the economic advantage.
The price/performance ratio will gradually decrease.
Therefore, GEN did not choose to invade in order to seek stability.
Of course, the reason for this is that coreJJ can determine EDG's tactical focus based on the attributes of the first dragon.
Since the first dragon is an earth dragon, it is absolutely unbelievable to use EDG's playing style to fight them without focusing on the bottom lane in the early stage.
"We don't want to be too aggressive in the early stages of this game. Don't cross the river with the bottom line. It would be best if we can get stuck in front of the tower."
GEN's jungler Haru gave a reminder to Chichi before opening the jungle.
Emperor Chi had no expression on his face.
He is very unhappy now.
It's not that I'm unhappy with what Haru said, but I'm unhappy with myself.
Because when he heard Haru say these words, the first thought that came to Chiku's mind was actually...
Why do you think I can push across the river if I play a fierce lane?
This sudden thought made Emperor Chi want to slap himself.
Wheel Mom has a strong ability to push the lane in the early stage. In order to ensure the initiative in the bottom lane in the early stage, and also to prevent the opponent from guessing the opening route of their jungler, Chidi and coreJJ made the choice to go online in advance.
They didn't hope to kill EDG's bottom duo or use summoner skills, because they knew EDG would not give them such an opportunity.
The only purpose of the two of them is to defeat Luo's guardian, nothing more.
Soon, Li Luo and Meiko controlled Wheel Mom and Luo to go online.
The ruler in the grass used his Q skill from a long distance. This ultra-long-range feather successfully hit Luo and knocked out the guardian.
However, EDG's bottom lane duo did not intend to use their talents in vain. The movement speed bonus granted after the Guardian was triggered allowed the two of them to move forward faster.
coreJJ realized that if they want to protect the retreat of the ruler, they must restrict the wheel mother. As long as the wheel mother is equipped with passive, they can choose to take the initiative to counterattack.
But Meiko's Rakan used his extreme range W to press towards the Shoku Emperor.
Facing Luo's grand appearance, I felt that Chichi, who was in good condition today, was also very stable, and used a small movement to turn around and successfully wrested Luo's key control.
But precisely because he turned back, Li Luolun's mother was given the opportunity to spend her money.
The Q skill seemed to predict the ruler's position, and the rotating flywheel hit Kasumi accurately.
Seeing this, coreJJ had no choice but to give up on approaching Wheel Mom and went to pick up Xia instead.
Xia did respond, and coreJJ and Chi Di also left safely, but Xia was chased and beaten twice by Li Luo.
Wheel Mom's passive skill is to provide Wheel Mom with a small movement speed gain when Wheel Mom A reaches the target.
In addition to this gain, the guardian whose effect has not yet ended and the "quick step" talent carried by Li Luo provide natural protection for Wheel Mom's pursuit.
If he had not continued to chase, he would have been attacked by the blue soldiers, and the shield triggered by Braum's Guardian was still there. Li Luo decided not to give up this opportunity to seize the bloodline advantage at level 1.
What's more funny is that when Kasumi in the grass successfully broke the shield of Meiko's guardian, there was a burst of cheers and applause at the scene.
But the applause soon turned into loneliness as Xia was beaten violently.
In just a brief encounter, the advantage of the two lines has been established.
In addition, there are also certain differences in the going out outfits of both parties.
Kasumi's outfit choice is Dolan Shield.
But Li Luo's wheel mother chose Duolan Sword.
Although the Dolan Shield can restore a small amount of blood after taking damage, the Dolan Sword can restore the health of the A soldier. If the side holding the Dolan Sword has an advantage, then under the frequent consumption of the dominant side, the Dolan Shield will
The blood recovery granted will naturally be of little use.
When the third wave of troops was exhausted, the EDG team's bottom lane duo had already pushed the troops under the blue side's defense tower.
At the same time, during the confrontation between each other, Chi Di had been forced to lose seven soldiers, which meant that even if Chi Di killed all the soldiers in the wave under the tower, he would still be seven soldiers behind Li Luo!
"Brother Luo is 23 dollars behind at the start. It's not good."
The barrage has already started to be posted.
Soon another audience discovered that after pushing their troops into the defense tower, EDG's bottom lane duo did not choose to retreat to gain vision. Instead, they walked under the defense tower and pretended to be planning to attack the tower.
The third wave of troops is not enough for the duo to reach level 3.
The sudden behavior of Level 2 Wheel Mom and Level 2 Luo seems very strange.
Chichi Emperor, who was under the tower doing last-ditch strikes, felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.
He understood the meaning of EDG's two-man lane.
Luo was hovering on the edge of the defense tower's attack.
It is currently unknown what skills Luo learns at level 2.
Meiko has not let go of her Q skill yet.
What skills Wheel Mom will learn at level 2 is also unknown.
From the beginning to now, although Wheel Mom has frequently used the Q skill to clear the line and consume it at the same time, the W skill to eject Wheel Mom has never been used.
There is an artillery soldier under the tower right now.
As a top AD, Chi Di understands it.
If he uses basic attacks to make up for it, Luo will definitely limit him.
This method of restriction is nothing more than W rushing in to lift him, and then handing E to pull him out.
Even if Braum presses forward and puts Luo's passive on, they still can't keep Luo behind.
Emperor Chi will miss this artillery carriage by then.
And if King Chi chooses to use Q to supplement the artillery soldier, if Wheel Mom learns the E skill, she can 100% use E to resist this Q to recover mana.
Regardless of the outcome, EDG will definitely make a profit, and he will only feel discomfort.
There was no way Chichi could guard against this obvious way of making moves.
After a while, Li Luo controlled Wheel Ma to turn E and hit Xia's Q. He was satisfied and used the recovered mana to turn Q skill Wheel to return the favor to Chi Di.
coreJJ decisively opened the shield and confiscated the wheel mother's Q.
"This thing is quite annoying."
Li Luo expressed.
"It's okay. If they don't want to exchange blood, they can't push out this line of soldiers."
meiko smiled.
The two-player lane will reach level 3 after the fourth wave of minions has eaten three melee minions.
The Q thrown out by Li Luo before leaving was intended to consume the blue soldiers arriving in front of the defense tower.
Since Bronn wouldn't give in, Li Luo wouldn't force it.
The security door CD in the early stage is not short.
When Li Luo reached level 3, the ejection combined with the boomerang pushed the army line in again. Then Li Luo and Meiko immediately returned to the city, and Li Luo bought Extraction.
In addition to extraction, Li Luo also has extra money to buy a pair of straw sandals.
This is already the extreme economy at this point in time.
After all, Li Luo still had a bottle of red medicine he bought when he went out that he hadn't drank yet.
After purchasing the equipment, Li Luo and Meiko quickly went online.
Then an embarrassing situation appeared for Emperor Chi.
When the EDG duo returned to the city, the GEN bottom lane duo didn't know.
After all, both of them were in pretty good condition at the time, so whether it was an ambush or a field goal, it was possible.
Of course, it is possible to return to the city, but there is no reason for the ruler to return to the city at this time. Extracting this piece of equipment is sometimes suitable for professional players, and sometimes it is useless.
Since GEN guessed that EDG might play around the lower half, they naturally planned to compete for the first dragon.
Although extraction will pay out money when the last hit is reached, the pace is too slow before that.
After a moment's hesitation, the two missed their best opportunity to return to the city.
When the EDG bot lane duo goes online, not only will their bot laner be uncomfortable on GEN's side, but the jungler will also be uncomfortable.
Because meiko has real eyes.
Meiko, who has a real eye, begins to invade the jungle and leave a field of vision, which is very uncomfortable for the jungler who prefers to farm in the early stage.
EDG already has lane rights in the bottom lane, and Luo's support speed is strong, so Haru will be under greater pressure when he brushes into the lower half of the jungle.
"The early rhythm of both sides is very stable. In terms of laning, except for a small difference in CS in the bottom lane, it is almost completely balanced."
Guan Zeyuan looked at the situation on the field and said.
It was difficult for him to analyze the pros and cons of both sides in this kind of matchup from the surface.
GEN obviously didn't want to take the initiative to set the pace in the early stage, so they just acted as Xiaolong's defensive eye position and let Kind Jue focus on jungle development.
In contrast, EDG was more proactive, but they also did not do any obvious offensive behavior. Like GEN, EDG also maintained a balanced development state.
It's just that after the Dream Demon reaches level 6, the psychological pressure on GEN will still be greater.
Especially the bottom lane.
The last-hit gap is gradually widening.
Game time is 7 minutes and 20 seconds.
The bottom lane's last hit difference came to 23.
The extraction that Li Luo bought in the early days has evolved from a "slow-tempo equipment" to an "extra" piece of equipment.
When the game time between the two sides reached the early 11th minute, the situation suddenly changed.
In the early stage, the EDG team, which had been focusing on the lower half of the area for their main vision, did not choose to let anyone come over when facing GEN who mobilized all their troops to the Xiaolong area. They just wandered around for a while and then gave up on this area.
dragon.
As the little dragon roared, the canyon pioneer's roar followed closely behind.
"They are..."
In the backstage lounge, Edgar frowned.
EDG... exchanged resources.
Even he, who was watching the game backstage, thought it was impossible for EDG to let go of Xiaolong like this.
Judging from the lineups of both sides, Wheel Mom, who made the attack speed boots first and has yet to make the first completed equipment, and Ryze, whose early combat effectiveness is not very good, this double C is not strong.
If EDG really takes over, then their GEN will have a certain advantage.
But EDG chose to avoid the battle and stole the Canyon Pioneer without any bloodshed.
