When the lineups of both sides were finalized, Jin Gong pretended to be relaxed and joked.
"My question is, the initial rhythm of this game must be fast."
Abu also looked a little helpless.
There is no doubt that EDG is clearly at a disadvantage in terms of BP in this second round.
And this is not just a general disadvantage. From the perspective of a professional coach, Abramovich knows that this puts them in a 30-70 situation with the IG team from the BP level.
And the execution of tactics in the game may be even more difficult.
It's not that their lineup is weak.
In fact, with EDG's lineup system, if it can develop smoothly with IG to the mid-to-late stage of team play, EDG will still be relatively easy to play when the economic gap between the two sides is balanced.
On the surface, EDG does not seem to have a large core, so it may lack damage in the later stages.
But IG's lineup is also very different. From the perspective of Canyon Relativity, the output volume of the two teams is almost the same.
However, EDG's lineup control chain is very sufficient.
In League of Legends, control can make up for a certain lack of damage.
Because control often makes the opponent unable to use any skills and is beaten to death. At this time, the opponent is no different from a fixed target position.
But the difficulty with EDG's lineup is how to survive the previous laning period.
IG’s last two choices are really eye-catching.
Urgot, as the top laner hero with the highest BP rate in this World Championship, logically speaking, it would not be a surprise to appear on the stage of the finals at this time.
But it was IG who got Urgot.
Although the IG team has used Urgot before, it was used when Duke was on the field.
The shy rarely uses this hero.
When The shy comes on the field, he will either choose the Four Sisters heroes with extremely high operating limits, or he will choose heroes like Jayce who focus on lane play and overpower others. In addition, The shy's tank hero Sion
He also made several appearances.
Only Urgot and The shy have not been used in this World Championship so far.
Abu clearly knows how much influence Urgot has on their system.
This is equivalent to them falling into the "Zach" trap set up by IG. IG used Zac to deceive their Poppy, and forced them to use the well-off special slot on the third floor to get the Poppy.
There is no reason for them not to take this system hero that their team is best at on the third floor.
But as soon as they took it, they fell into IG's trap.
It is very easy for Urgot to line up with Poppy. It is very difficult for Poppy to finish the line with Urgot from any angle. His W skill and his firm demeanor can certainly withstand Urgot's E skill, but Poppy
But there is no way to backhand consume the target after blocking it like other heroes.
And IG can be said to have played a clear card this time. It is almost impossible for Zach to catch Counter's Poppy in the early stage.
This means that Poppy only poses a threat to Zack in team fights.
However, if EDG really wants to win this game, Li Luo's Varus is the most critical point.
Will Zac carelessly grab the bottom lane, and how will the EDG team protect their bottom lane? This is the biggest problem EDG faces.
"The lineups of both sides have been completely finalized. The blue side IG team has Urgot in the top lane, jungler Zach, mid laner Syndra, and the bottom lane duo is Ice and Tahm."
In the commentary box, the commentators who did not fully understand the stakes between the two lineups still reported the lineup.
"The EDG team on the red side, Poppy in the top lane, Rock Bird in the jungle, Galio in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo is Varus and Rakan."
"The players on both sides are ready, let's enter the second round of the finals BO5 showdown together!"
As Guan Zeyuan finished speaking, the sound of cheers belonging to both teams could be heard on the scene.
Soon, ten people from both sides entered Summoner's Canyon.
The level one intensity of the IG team is not as high as that of EDG.
Therefore, EDG is very aggressive in level one positioning.
They even directly chose to invade as a group to capture IG’s lane.
Although IG has Zack's passive that can delay the attack for a long time, their control at level one is really lacking.
Therefore, IG allowed EDG to press in, and only symbolically let Han Bing throw a W to consume.
After the invasion left the field of view, EDG walked away.
Li Luo and Meiko did not go online as early as IG's Han Bing and Tam.
Instead, it helps the rock bird to open blue, ensuring that the rock bird can get the first blue buff as quickly as possible, ensuring its absolute advantage in the speed of clearing the wild.
To speed up the early tempo as much as possible, it is best to play Ning Wang Wuxia to worry about the bottom lane. This is the best solution EDG can think of.
However, IG quickly took the initiative in the middle and upper lines.
Game time is two and a half minutes.
King Ning’s Zac appeared in the bottom lane and conducted the first wave of gank.
The purpose of this wave of King Ning is obvious, which is to force him to dodge.
However, the EDG bottom lane duo had already anticipated this, and the importance of meiko was clearly demonstrated at this moment.
Zack's E skill's priority is actually very low.
It's so low that as long as there is knockback or knock-up type control, it can be interrupted.
When Zach charges up his E skill and takes off, before Zach lands on the target point, the target point will be shrouded in a warning shadow in advance.
Meiko was stuck at the moment Zach took off, and directly handed over his W skill and released it towards the shadows.
This was the only way Lowe could interrupt Zach.
You must concentrate on it and release it the moment the shadow appears. After all, Luo's W skill is delayed.
It turns out meiko is focused enough.
This W skill successfully interrupted Zach's first move. As Li Luo controlled Varus to hand over the E skill Evil Arrow Rain to restrict the ice that pressed forward, the two people evacuated gracefully.
After completing the interruption, Meiko controlled Luo in his hand to twitch twice on the spot, and at the same time, he also flashed the EDG team logo.
"Good boy, you're pretending. Brother Lan, don't get angry."
Although King Ning said that this wave of gank was fruitless, he didn't care.
Such extreme interruption cannot be achieved in every wave.
Therefore, he has many opportunities.
Moreover, King Ning is not worried about being countered in the upper half of the jungle. Yanque is no better than other jungle heroes. This thing can clear the jungle quickly and return quickly, which is true.
As a squishy mage, if Yanque is outflanked during the counter-jungle process, the possibility of losing himself is very high.
The shy's Urgot pushed the lane at the beginning, and IG left two wards in the river in the upper half of the jungle. If the rock bird really chooses to counter the jungle, these two wards can be detected immediately.
Of the rock bird.
What Prince Ning is worried about now is Bao Lan's mentality.
"I'm fine."
Baolan shook his head slightly.
Strictly speaking, his mentality was slightly affected.
In his eyes, Meiko is just a fool.
It’s okay to use the hero Luo, and there is no need to write an application form with him, but what do you mean by using my champion skin?
Still putting on the pretense.
This means that Li Luo's Xia was banned, otherwise these two people would definitely use the champion skin to be disgusting.
"Grow up, I won't have much pressure on the lane this time."
Jackeylove said.
The hero Han Bing is worthy of the name of line tyrant.
The attack distance of 600 is 25 points higher than that of Varus. In addition, Jackeylove has already prepared to "mix" when he selected this hero. It doesn't matter if the soldiers that cannot be filled are missed.
Just get the experience.
Anyway, due to the length of Luo's W, it is difficult to directly hit him first.
Game time is 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
The rock bird, which has cleared all the wild monsters at level 4, appears in the middle lane.
When the younger brother's Galio rushed towards Syndra with E, Rookie's Syndra used an extremely fast reaction speed to interrupt him. However, Xiaotian was also very steady. He knew how buggy Rookie's positioning was, so he immediately responded
Instead of handing over the W skill, he first used the stone formation to pave the way, and then handed over the Q to consume Syndra.
He didn't release the rock burst until his junior brother caught up with him.
Rookie noticed the angle of the rock protrusion and realized that he might not be able to avoid it due to his positioning, so he used Flash.
"Sindra was hit in the middle...Rookie is a little uncomfortable this time."
At the commentary booth, Wawa smacked his lips and said: "The level 4 rock sparrows have wiped out all the wild monsters. It is indeed very dangerous if they are carried up this wave."
"There is nothing we can do about it. EDG chose the midfield hero with the intention of giving Rookie strength. Fortunately, Rookie played a hero like Syndra. A weak player could retreat and interrupt Galio.
's entry."
Guan Zeyuan said slowly: "If this Rookie plays a hero with no control and no displacement, then he will really go to jail."
"But even so, Rookie will be in trouble."
However, not long after Guan Zeyuan finished speaking.
King Ning returned the favor and controlled Zach to perform a wave of squat jumps in the middle.
This wave of squat jumps combined with Rookie's Syndra also created Galio's flash.
However, Xiaotian's Rock Bird achieved certain results on the top lane.
Urgot is really good at beating Poppy.
Theshy relies on his own personal ability to quickly amplify this ease of fighting.
However, suppression and risk always coexist.
While exerting sufficient suppression, The shy's ability to deal with gank obviously needs to be improved.
Of course, the reason why Xiaotian was able to successfully gank this time was because EDG had recorded the approximate location of The shy's previous ward.
When he felt that the eye position was disappearing, Jin Gong used his own blood to forcibly curb the trend of the troops entering the tower, so The shy had to push again.
After all, the field of view was still there a few seconds ago, so Theshy's greedy luck mentality became EDG's breakthrough.
One blood is born.
Xiaotian's rock bird pocketed the head, and then helped Bobby push a wave of lines.
However, IG's midfielder responded very quickly.
Realizing that Poppy was in poor condition and that Yanjai was on the top lane, the two of them directly revealed their cards and came to the bottom lane to force Varus away.
No matter how strong Li Luo is, there is no way he would dare to take the lane when the opponent has four for two.
Jackeylove got the lane right for the first time.
His Ice also overtook Varus in terms of last-ditch damage.
Xiaotian and Jin Gong quickly went home after pushing the line. At the same time, junior Galio also went home to replenish his condition. IG saw this and then retreated.
They know that both Poppy and Galio have partners.
But judging from the results, they limited Li Luo's matchup pressure in this game.
IG knows very well that as long as Li Luo has no advantage, then their tactics will be successful.
After Li Luo and Meiko maintained stability for six and a half minutes, they were finally torn apart.
When IG was on the line in the middle and top, King Ning's Zac directly chose to jump over the tower in the bottom lane, which made Meiko unable to react at the first time and was slightly delayed by half a beat.
Li Luo didn't save his skills and decisively handed over Flash.
And a Varus without the ability to move would have a very harsh living environment without flashing.
When King Ning came to the bottom lane again, Xiaotian was also there, and successfully counterattacked King Ning.
On the IG team's side, Rookie, who has the wire rights, also rushed to the frontal battlefield immediately.
The junior Galio didn't panic when Rookie started to roam. With the ultimate move, Galio's support radius was beyond what Syndra, an ordinary mage, could match.
Therefore, when fighting on the frontal battlefield, the support speed of the junior disciples is very fast.
However, the timing of gank chosen by IG this time was very good.
IG stuck a very good opportunity.
Limited by the pressure brought by the jungle, this wave of troops was pushed by IG.
Both sides of the duo lane were barely close to reaching level 6 experience.
Therefore, when Han Bing gets the line rights and completes the line push, he will naturally become the first to reach 6.
On the other hand, EDG's bottom lane duo of Li Luo and Meiko is only a little short of experience level 6.
If they can safely finish this wave of soldiers under the tower, they will definitely be able to reach 6. By then, the two ultimate moves of Varus and Rakan will be enough to make IG drink a pot.
However, IG, which is very good at line management, did not give EDG this opportunity for the two-man lane.
When Han Bing's ultimate move hit Li Luo, but was instantly neutralized by Li Luo's Varus, Rookie held the magic ball and used the flash that had just cooled down to flash the ultimate move directly to Varus, who had not flashed.
Then the weak man retreated and pushed Li Luo unconscious, then threw his hand and hit Varus with W and Q skills.
This completely unreasonable output method made Li Luo feel helpless.
Galio's support speed was already very fast, and EDG subsequently replaced Sapphire's Tahm Kench.
And judging from the summoner skills, Zach, Syndra, and Tahm all surrendered Flash.
Judging from the summoner skills, EDG is undoubtedly profitable.
There is no loss on people’s heads either.
But... Varus was killed in battle, did they really not lose?
"Brother Luo, go to the middle lane and have some fun. I've pushed the bottom lane."
The junior student said.
"good."
Li Luo nodded slightly, and at the same time he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This familiar feeling is back.
From the time he started playing professionally to now, Li Luo hasn't felt this kind of feeling of having no room for maneuver for some time.
Therefore, when recalling this feeling, Li Luo even felt like a bt.
"Brother Luo has no advantage this time. Fortunately, he can capture a wave of lanes in the middle, but King Ning is here again. This is a desperate attempt to catch Varus during the gap when he doesn't flash."
Looking at Zach, who was moving towards the bottom lane again after returning home to replenish his supplies, Miller clearly felt in the commentary box that this game seemed to have deviated from the concept of "win or lose".
