Chapter 337 I feel like there are ants crawling on my body
After G2 played GG amidst laughter and laughter, the players from both sides met in the center of the stage before returning to the backstage, and had a brief friendly exchange with each other.
"Hey, Xie Purou~ I'll show you our real muscles in the next dish."
Comedian Jankos raised his arms and showed off his muscles.
Li Luo just smiled at this, and then responded in fluent English: "I am full of expectations."
Entering the corridor, the smiles on the faces of everyone in G2 faded a little.
The way they view the game is indeed different from the teams in the Asian region.
This may be due to regional and cultural differences.
But this does not mean that G2 does not care about winning or losing.
They also want to win.
The only reason they can laugh is because they look at losing the game more casually.
No one is willing to lose all the time, unless there is really no way to win.
Instead of putting on a bad face to make the fans who like them feel the same, they should be more relaxed and play the subsequent games as well as possible.
"Guys, you did a great job."
The coach greeted the G2 people who had returned triumphantly at the door, and said with humor: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, we still have a lot of room for improvement in this BO5."
"Yes, coach, we have no room for misery anymore, right?"
Ap said helplessly: "EDG's midfielder and jungler are very strong, beyond my imagination."
"Their top lane is also very stable. The most I can do is suppress his last hits and can't do anything else."
Wunder also spread his hands at the right time.
"Don't flatter yourself. You were killed once and I saw it."
Jankos went to strengthen wunder with a playful smile.
"That was my initiative to initiate a solo kill against him. Although I lost in the end, at least I didn't lose in terms of momentum."
Wunder scratched his neck and said.
"Yes, that's right, your mouth didn't lose."
In G2's backstage lounge, the atmosphere for communication was pretty good, but most of what everyone said was nonsense. Judging from the current situation, no one could think of any constructive opinions.
"I think we can't play too extreme. In fact, if we had a normal lineup in the last round, we would still have a chance to win with the double team system in the bottom lane, but we collapsed too quickly in the front."
Hjarnan was the one with the worst gaming experience in the previous team.
As an ADC with no displacement and continuous output, he didn't find any chance to kill the A player in team battles. Either he was bombed by the barrel, or he had to face it all by himself when all his teammates were dead.
The faces of three or four people on EDG's side.
The output environment is almost zero.
In most cases, the ultimate move is not to start a group first, but to provide teammates with a little space to escape after their teammates are attacked.
But if EDG continues to choose to steal the show, Hjarnan will still have to choose Varus to deal with it, and the ending may be the same as the previous game.
"They chose the blue side in the next game, and our BP will be even more difficult."
The G2 coach said with some distress after receiving the news from the referee.
There is not much time left for them.
By contrast.
The atmosphere on the EDG team is very normal.
During the halftime break of other teams, the coach would like to spend the entire fifteen-minute break discussing tactics with the players.
But that's not the case with EDG.
At least not when facing an opponent like G2.
When the EDG players returned to the lounge, Abramovich only said one sentence.
"Everyone should take a rest and think about what to do in the next game. In terms of tactics, we don't need to adjust our tactics under the current situation."
The contestants just nodded, leaning on their chairs and closing their eyes to relax.
The second game between the two sides kicked off soon.
In the ban stage, G2's ban players have not changed much from the previous one. They are still Xayah, Kai'Sa and Wheel Mom.
The main reason why they keep pushing the envelope is that G2 clearly understands the essence of EDG's two lineups.
Whether it is a mobile fortress or a teleportation fortress, this fast attack rhythm that they are not used to will bring them great trouble.
The core hero of these two lineups is Wheel Mom.
So they absolutely didn't dare to let it go.
However, EDG made quite a few adjustments in banning players in the second round.
In the last game, they killed the Great Inventor, Sword Demon and Tahm.
In this game, EDG only placed the Great Inventor in the first three ban positions, and the remaining two ban positions were given to Braum and... Destiny Master.
This is the first time that the EDG team has banned the Destiny Master.
After seeing EDG make such a strange move, G2 seemed to realize something.
Their AD player Hjarnan's expression changed obviously.
"Fake!"
Amid the confused whispers of the G2 coach, EDG instantly picked Varus on the first floor.
At this moment, even the scene filled with Koreans... there was some commotion because of EDG's choice on the first floor.
"Xi Bal'er, shameless!"
"EDG is so cheap. They are not considered the number one seed."
"Ah Yigu, from a distance I seem to see the tears streaming down the faces of the G2adc players."
"Does this still allow people to live?"
Korean netizens expressed their disdain for EDG's behavior.
But EDG didn't care at all.
In League of Legends, as long as it involves normal tactics, there is nothing dirty or dirty.
Winning this game in the simplest and most direct way is the goal that every team wants to pursue.
Despite the fact that the Koreans call them Huanshi, it really makes the teams in their division disgust their opponents. They don't think it's disgusting, but think it's a sign of wisdom.
G2's adc only has three heroes in this world championship.
Big head, fortune teller, Varus.
Currently, two of these three heroes have been banned, one has been robbed, and they have also banned three adcs themselves.
Then what else can their adc play?
And the most embarrassing thing now is not the casting of the ADC position.
But EDG took the initiative to release the hero Tahm, whether they choose it or not.
If you don't choose, EDG will definitely choose it. Varus paired with Tahm Kench is a natural combination, and it is very easy to match with heroes in the mid and jungle.
So G2 thought about it for a while, and it wasn't until the countdown started counting that they decided what to choose for the first and second floors.
Tam.
Sword Demon.
There is nothing they can do about it.
EDG didn't ban Sword Demon, there's no way they could hand over Sword Demon as a hero.
And their third-hand selection is almost completely determined, which is adc.
If you don't choose, the few remaining adc heroes will be completely banned by EDG in the second round.
After the sword demon locked up, EDG successfully selected Poppy on the second floor, and then added a hand of Thresh on the third floor.
At this moment, G2's coach felt like he was naked, standing in front of Abramovich.
Abu, see through them.
The top five heroes with Hjarnan's proficiency are Wheel Mother, Destiny Master, Varus, Kalista, and Merlin Gunner.
As for the heroes with proficiency levels of sixth and below...
Either it is completely inconsistent with the current version, or it is above the ban they have pressed.
In other words, Hjarnan currently has two heroes available.
Calista and Cannon.
Kalista's current appearance rate is pitifully low.
Two games in total.
The winning rate is 50%.
The winning hand was contributed by Li Luo.
Moreover, EDG chose the hero Poppy. In the last game, Xiaotian used Poppy as a jungler. The G2 coach naturally assumed that the hero Poppy would most likely be in the jungle position.
If Bobby is really a jungler, then as long as he comes to grab the bottom lane, Kalista's flexibility will become a joke.
Once the determined style is turned on, the skateboard shoes can't slide. What's the use of this hero? And once Kalista has no advantage in the lane, she is a complete waste. Leaving aside the jungle, even if Hjarnan gets Kalis
Ta, is he confident in defeating Li Luo in the lane?
G2's coach feels that the probability of his AD defeating Li Luo may be lower than the probability of Group B's VIT crushing all their opponents and eventually winning the cup.
As for why there is such a strange idea... maybe it is because G2 lost to VIT in the playoffs, so they were reduced to playing in the bubble game to compete for the third seed. Brothers in their own division always want to ridicule and slander each other.
All at once.
But there is no way.
They can only use small cannons.
The small cannon is locked on the third floor of G2.
In the commentary box, Wang Duoduo touched his chin: "This lineup of G2 is so weird. It feels like they were forced to choose this little cannon."
"They seem to be forced to select the top three heroes now."
Guan Zeyuan's professional ability is obviously stronger. After seeing G2's third-hand hero, he was a little dumbfounded: "EDG has seen through G2's intentions. The main purpose of selecting this Thresh is to disgust the cannon."
Yes, Xiaopao and Tahm Kench are already weak in the line-up, and now they encounter the combination of Varus and Thresh. This line-up..."
Guan Zeyuan did not continue.
But the audience pretty much understood it.
Any player who has played more than a hundred ADC games can basically feel the gap in laning ability from the most intuitive hero data.
Xiao Pao's W can easily be interrupted by Thresh, and viewers have seen a lot of similar highlights.
This G2 decided to choose a small cannon, which was obviously a helpless move.
"But the essence of EDG's BP is far more than that. Both sides entered the second round of bans. EDG chose to ban Ryze and Akali, while G2 chose to ban Tsar and Syndra...
…”
While Guan Zeyuan was thinking about it, G2’s fourth floor hero had also been finalized.
After Sword Demon, Tahm Kench and Cannon, G2 then added a blind monk.
The number one blind monk in Europe, the confident choice of Jankos!
"They reserved Kang's special seat for the fifth floor, but I don't think this decision was very smart."
Xiaotian smiled and said.
There are many heroes that can be paired with Lee Sin.
But it is not difficult to guess a hero that fits the current version and fits the temperament of the G2 team.
On the fourth floor of EDG...the Witch of Deceiver is locked.
This final move seemed to stab G2 hard in the heart.
Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, G2's coach was already a little numb at this time.
His BP was handled even more miserably than the previous one.
As a coach, he knows all too well how many difficulties he is facing at this moment.
Especially when EDG locked the troll on the fifth floor, G2's coach almost wanted to go to Xiaori to ask whether it hurt to commit seppuku.
Even Guan Zeyuan, who has a deep understanding of the game from a God's perspective, cannot see it as thoroughly as his client.
EDG first put Sword Demon to grab Varus, and then forced them to pick Sword Demon Tahm Kench to grab Poppy. They used the bottom lane duo plus a Poppy who didn't know whether to play top lane or jungle to form the top three choices. Poppy
The extreme restraint effect on Kalista forces them to choose a hero like Cannon, which is barely the best solution at present.
The problem is that they are still unwilling to choose this optimal solution.
Poppy's swing characteristics are there, so the hesitant G2 can only focus on banning people in the middle lane in the second round.
If they choose the Enchantress instead of the Lee Sin on the fourth floor, the EDG will be unable to maintain the balance and the blind monk will be chosen by the little god to play jungle. At the same time, the fifth floor will add Lissandra, who has a supporting nature and has a certain restraint against the Enchantress.
Junior students know how to play Lissandra, the G2 coach can be sure of this.
In other words, no matter what they do, EDG can always be one step ahead of them and grab the heroes they want. However, EDG can still reasonably form a complete lineup after grabbing the heroes.
They teamed up and down and formed a four-dimensional system.
Can Ap play Lissandra?
In fact, it will.
But his Lissandra was far from being able to bring out his own player style, and there was no way to bring out the advantages of this style.
In the end, Ap had no choice but to add Yasuo.
This is a hero that G2’s coach and Ap agree can at least have some initiative.
After all, Yasuo, a hero, does not face so much pressure from the Enchantress during the laning phase, and he can withstand the early stage with a little magic resistance.
At the same time, Yasuo and Blind Sin can also have good combos, and Sword Demon and Cannon can also cooperate with Yasuo.
A four-character lineup was thus completed naturally.
"In this case, the lineups of both sides have been determined. The blue side EDG team, the jungler Poppy who performed well in the last game was moved to the top lane by EDG. The jungler Xiaotian got the troll, and the middle lane is the elementary school.
My brother’s Enchantress, the bottom lane is a strong laning combination of Verus and Thresh.”
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan nodded slightly and said: "The red team G2 team, the top laner Sword Demon, the jungler Lee Sin, the mid laner Yasuo, and the bottom lane duo is Xiaopao and Tahm Kench."
"I can only say... G2's lineup is indeed a bit strange. Let's not talk about the Chopper team for the time being. The key is their matchup... Although Sword Demon is the top laner at the T0 level, he can't beat Poppy.
Is it really easy to fight?"
Wang Duoduo raised his own questions.
At this time, Wunder in the battle seat was also thinking about this issue.
However, no one knows this problem better than Li Luo.
Recall that in the "War of the Century" between RNG and G2 before the rebirth, the top laner Letme, who had already begun to fade in the "Equality of All Beings", used Poppy to cooperate with the jungler to destroy Wunder's Sword Demon.
Judging from the characteristics of the skill, as long as the sword demon is willing to consume Poppy first, he may be attacked at any time.
It's okay if it's 1v1solo, and it won't hurt if Poppy bounces it.
But when it comes to jungle factors...
Wunder already felt chills running down his spine.
