"In one game, and it was also the final of the S series, both sides broke out with 41 kills in the first game. I wonder which team other than the LPL teams can do it. This is the real battle of the century!"
Guan Zeyuan couldn't help but sigh.
Don't forget that this game lasted less than thirty minutes.
But whether they were the audience at the scene or before the live broadcast, they all had a deep aftertaste after the base crystal exploded.
This is not a game where they can only remember one move.
Whether it's the 1v1 solo kill before the bottom lane adc, or Xayah's initiative as an adc to start a group in the mid-term, or Akali's wonderful breakthrough with two waves of clear thinking and terrifying operations.
There was also the terrifying dominance shown by Xayah in the penultimate wave of team battles.
14/2/5.
Li Luo's Xia played an absolutely carrying performance in the first game of the finals!
And when the data panels of both sides came out, Xia's damage of up to 37,800 caused an uproar on the scene.
Just looking at the damage number, it may not have such a strong impact.
Data can only have an impact when compared with others.
For example, Lucian from Jackeylove.
"This one... the difference in AD damage is indeed quite large. Jacekylove's several mistakes were quite fatal to be honest."
Miller shook his head slightly.
Originally, he had high expectations for Jacekylove's performance when facing Li Luoshi in this finals.
After all, Jackeylove, as a post-00s generation, can be said to be the youngest AD player in this world championship.
Such an adc who has stood on the finals stage since his debut will undoubtedly have high hopes for the LPL commentators.
LPL is rich in adc.
There was a time when Uzi was struggling in the mud of the dark ages of the LPL.
Now Li Luo has torn through the darkness and let the dawn pour on the land of LPL.
So after Li Luo, who will take over?
Although Li Luo is now in his prime among professional players, it seems that if Li Luo played for another two years in 1998, he would have fallen out of the "young player" category.
Players born after 2000 like Jackeylove will undoubtedly become the expectations of the next generation of LPL.
But judging from the performance in this game, it seems that Jackeylove still has a long way to go.
Many of his decisions seem decisive.
But mistakes also give people a very random feeling.
This is difficult to see in normal games. Even if you send one or two waves, IG's teammates can still provide Jacekylove with a cover.
Besides, the IG team itself has a very high turnover rate.
It can be said that every player among them will make more than one wave of mistakes on the playing field.
This is a team with an extremely high upper limit and an extremely low lower limit.
Although Guan Zeyuan did not exaggerate some of the mistakes made by the IG team players, in Guan Zeyuan's heart, the IG team seemed to have fallen behind in many aspects of this BO5.
EDG players also make mistakes, such as scout, and this game gave them some opportunities.
Meiko’s Time Man also made mistakes in releasing several waves of skills.
Xiaotian's early decision-making mistakes even made him fall into passivity in the early stage.
But EDG's mistakes are negligible compared to IG's.
In the first game, IG's bottom lane shortcomings were undoubtedly very obvious.
It’s not just Jackeylove’s problem, Sapphire’s problem is also quite serious.
"Anyway, at least I think the competitive status of the players on both sides today is online. The shy on IG's side is in a hot state, and the EDG team's Luo Ge's state is as stable as ever. To be honest, the first game is a bit like them.
It was a solo show for both of them, but Brother Luo stood at the end."
Wawa smiled and said: "Then the right to choose the side fell into the hands of the EDG team... EDG team... eh? They chose the red side?"
As the doll was talking, he suddenly became surprised.
Guan Zeyuan and Miller were also thoughtful.
EDG has actually chosen the red side quite a few times this season.
But compared to other teams, EDG actually doesn't rely on the counter position to swing.
Their main purpose of choosing the red side in most cases is for the BP of the first three hands.
EDG likes to use the first and second floors on the red side to get the main heroes that fit their tactical style, and use them as the cornerstone of the lineup they plan to build for this game.
Looking at it this way, it makes sense to choose the red side.
Guan Zeyuan thought for a while and then said: "I think the reason why they actively chose the red side is also to restrain IG. IG's upper and middle swing is quite troublesome on the red side."
"There is indeed a possibility. Since they won the first round on the red side, they simply don't plan to switch to the blue side in the second round. They will remain unchanged in response to changes. This is the style that the EDG team likes. Then
Let’s take a short break and then come together to face the next showdown in the battle of the century!”
As Miller finished speaking, the domestic netizens sitting in front of the screen also went to the toilet when they needed to, and replenished snacks when they needed to.
There are also quite a few unlucky people who were caught watching the competition because they were too immersed in it.
Netizens in the Tieba forum also started making their own predictions about the follow-up games of this final.
"I feel like IG is a bit difficult. How do you play with the explosion in the bottom lane?"
"I suggest Jackeylove not to play those who can C. As long as he doesn't give away, I think IG still has a greater chance of winning. This The shy is too good. As a top laner, I feel adrenaline watching his operation.
Su Kuangbiao, don’t say anything anymore, I’m going to start a ranking game.”
"Brothers above, see you in fifteen minutes."
"Brother Luo, this Xia needs to be targeted. Do you understand the gold content of the champion's skin?"
"There is a gap in operations. With IG's early advantage, I don't even think EDG can play anymore."
"I feel like BP is still not easy to do."
"What the hell, I didn't dare to be distracted during the whole game. I just went to pee in the middle, and the game was over in one round."
…
In this rather tense and serious competition, netizens on Tieba even reduced the frequency of their activities.
However, what the audience didn't know was that during the halftime break, a fierce quarrel broke out in the backstage lounge of the IG team.
This quarrel did not last long, but when the IG people came out of the lounge and prepared to go on stage, King Ning who was walking in front had unhappiness written all over his face.
The reason for the quarrel is simple.
Prince Ning's idea of playing Kayn was rejected.
Mafa was tough for once.
It's not that Mafa doesn't want Ning Wang to play, but because of the current situation of falling behind, Mafa has a vague feeling that the EDG team may have expected that Ning Wang has the idea of playing Kaiyin. According to his understanding of Li Luo, Li Luo There is a high probability that there will be a trap waiting for them to crawl into.
It would be nice if their jungler was replaced by someone else, but it happened to be Li Luo's loyal licking dog Ning Wang.
When a player is acting like a dog licker, his brain is not flexible enough. Li Luo, who knows Ning Wang well, can know exactly what Ning Wang is thinking.
Therefore, MAFA made up its mind before the finals.
No matter what, the initiative of BP cannot be in the hands of King Ning.
When he wants to play a hero, just go against him and that's it.
At first, such an unruly and rebellious man as Prince Ning was completely submissive to Li Luoxun. If Prince Ning is taken advantage of now, they will most likely have to kneel down the next time.
After the players from both sides returned to their respective battle seats, the BP of the second game also kicked off.
In the commentary box.
The three commentators who came back from their respective roles stopped chatting after getting the prompt from the director. Looking at the BP screen that entered and the two heroes that both sides had banned, Guan Zeyuan said with a smile: "The banning ideas of both sides are the same. There doesn’t seem to be much change in the last round. The first two ban positions for the IG team are still given to Ezreal and Ryze.”
"On the red side, EDG has slightly adjusted the order of bans in the first two hands. They chose to ban Camille and Sword Girl first. Jace... There is no ban yet. Will they ban them in the third hand? "
"Oh, both sides have changed their heroes in the third hand! The IG team finally realized that they could no longer get Xayah for Brother Luo, so they directly pressed it down and released Luo instead. The EDG team also I gave enough respect to The Shy Akali in the previous one and pressed it down decisively. In this case, Jess comes out, do you want IG to take it?"
In Miller's voice, the first floor of the IG team quickly selected a hero.
Syndra.
"Hey, Rookie is angry. He doesn't plan to take it with both hands later. He just gives himself a strong and convenient hero first to establish the advantage of the mid laner... And the first floor of the EDG team has been selected.
Luo, on the second floor...has Varus been finalized?"
EDG's choice for the second floor surprised Guan Zeyuan.
Currently there are many heroes of Li Luo off the court.
Things like Kai'Sa and Xiao Pao are all outside, and Li Luo can also choose from them.
But Li Luo settled on Varus.
Varus is strictly a functional adc.
In this era, most ADCs will use Arashiri as their first ready-made version. Heroes like Varus who either use poke or attack speed and tend to special effects such as the Broken Sheep Knife are no longer very popular.
.
But it is undeniable that after the EDG bottom lane combination was selected, their ability to start a team was basically not lacking.
"I roughly know what EDG is thinking. They are wary of Jackeylove's Draven. Rakan and Varus' line-up strength and ability to find opportunities are both top-notch, and Varus's range is there and he has the E skill.
The evil spirits are raining arrows, and IG may be pulled if they really choose Draven."
Miller thoughtfully analyzed: "Once the hero Draven is at a disadvantage in the lane, his ability to fight in a team is not even as good as Lucian in the previous game."
"That's true, but on the second floor of IG...Eh? King Ning chose Zach?!"
As a result, the talking doll suddenly shouted: "Good guy, King Ning's signature hero is out!"
On the IG battle table.
"Playing a non-displacement hero, right? I have to arrange this for you, even if I hate this hero."
Prince Ning muttered something.
"They haven't come out in the jungle yet, so it won't be easy for you in the lower half."
Rookie reminded King Ning.
There are many junglers who can restrain Zach.
For example, Olaf in the previous game could chase Zac and kill him in the jungle.
However, in order to prevent King Ning's jungle area from being too uncomfortable, IG was naturally prepared.
When they drafted Zach, they were already sure that EDG's well-off special position on the third floor would not produce a strong jungler who could limit Zach.
And this is also the most critical preparation for the IG team’s BP thinking in this game!
Under the spotlight, the IG team locked a hand of Tamu on the third floor.
"Tahm and Zac... In this case, I feel like IG really wants to play Draven in the bottom lane. With Zac's strong gank, coupled with Tahm's protection, EDG must seriously consider this move.
It’s the focus.”
Guan Zeyuan roughly guessed the tactical intentions of the IG team based on his understanding of the game.
In the IG battle table, the eyes of coach Mafa and even the players lit up when they saw the heroes displayed on the third floor of the EDG team.
Poppy.
This is a hero against Zach Tenke.
He is also one of the system heroes that EDG is very good at.
And EDG can swing between Ueno and Suke when using this hero.
It's just that this EDG has released Luo as a support, so this Bobby can only appear in the top lane or jungle position.
"Ouch, IG is a bit careless. Since they want to think about Zach, why should they consider taking down Poppy? With Poppy around, Zach's ability to enter the field will be greatly reduced."
After Guan Zeyuan saw EDG's BP, he immediately felt that EDG already had the BP in this game.
Indeed, judging from the first three hands, EDG not only locked in a strong starting point, but also maintained a strong laning combination in the bottom lane. At the same time, they also selected Poppy, who can perfect the entry of Counter's opponent.
IG's first three BPs seemed to be completely destroyed.
But in the EDG battle table, Li Luo was not so optimistic.
Even...Li Luo smelled a sense of calculation.
The reason why they feel this way is because both Li Luo and Abu know that when this Bobby is locked, it means that Bobby can only go on the road.
Because the strength of the middle lane on the IG team is too high, and EDG has not locked down the midfielder in the first three heroes, as long as the IG team slightly targets Scout's hero pool in the second round of BP, then the EDG team will not
Possibly move Poppy to the jungle position. In that case, the midfielder's confrontation will be too weak, and it will be easy for IG to tear him apart.
"It doesn't matter. The sword demon doesn't need to be banned. I can resist it."
Jin Gong said seriously.
"Of course I believe you."
Li Luo smiled and then said: "Then let's kill Jace and the vampire."
Although Poppy can restrain Jace in melee form, Jace and Zach have their own arguments. Once Poppy blocks Jace's Q with W, Zach will have a chance to enter the field.
With The shy's suppressive power, if he gets Jace, Jin Gong won't be able to play in the lane.
Just relying on the long-range form, The shy can crush Jin Gong to death.
As for vampires, I chose to kill them purely because of The shy.
In addition, although Sword Girl is still outside, Poppy is really not that afraid of Sword Girl. In team battles, Sword Girl will also be very afraid of Poppy's ultimate move coming into the field, so EDG is not afraid of IG taking it.
Looking back at IG, in the last two ban positions, they targeted Olaf and the junior Enchantress who performed well in the previous hand.
The EDG team added a rock bird on the fourth floor.
Although their possibility of swinging is already very weak at present, they can still confuse their opponents a little.
But the players and coaches of the IG team are also experienced.
When they saw the options on the fourth floor of EDG, they were relieved.
"To be honest, I was really afraid that EDG would pull out something weird, but in this case... it's okay."
Rookie smiled and said.
"The most important thing is that we won this bp."
Mafa also smiled.
On the fourth floor of the IG team, they finalized an ice shooter.
Ice Archer has played a few times in the World Championship, but not many.
The reason why I gave Jackeylove this hero is because after mafa passed the first game, he sorted out how Jack should play in this BO5.
It is obviously very slim to beat Li Luo in the lane.
That being the case.
Then just mess around.
Ice and Varus will both be in the IG team's options.
But this time EDG seemed to have seen his thoughts and robbed Varus first.
However, IG used Tamu to confuse EDG, and finally gave Ah Shui the choice of a hero like Han Bing who is a lane dominator and a good team-starter.
However, IG’s fifth floor is the real killer BP.
Urgot!
In their last choice, IG decided on the hero Urgot for The shy.
As soon as this hero was selected, Jin Gong's brows on EDG's side suddenly furrowed tightly.
Poppy is not afraid of most heroes during the laning phase.
With Passive on his side, it would be hard for Poppy to suffer from a blood exchange.
But when facing Urgot, it was an exception.
Urgot's favorite is tank-type heroes like Poppy.
Therefore, when fighting Urgot, Poppy cannot use Urgot to get up close and consume him.
The blood exchange consumed is meaningless, and you may even be stuck by Urgot and lose your life.
In the end, EDG's fifth floor could only supplement Galio as a means of cooperating with Rock Bird to target Syndra, and even support the sidelines in the mid-term!
