"We played so passively in the first set, isn't it bad?"
After hearing what caps said, Ah P was obviously a little dissatisfied: "You have to carry."
"Isn't it you?"
Caps said funny.
"No, no, no, brother, how can I win the attention of the whole team? Wouldn't it be better for us to perform together?"
Listening to the bickering between the two, Wunder, the top laner, spoke up at the right moment: "You guys carry this one, and I'll just follow along. These guys are targeting me too much."
Wunder was quite helpless at this time.
Silas got it for him.
G2 is also very good at swinging this version of the top heroes up and down.
To put it bluntly, the path they are taking is the path of the IG team in the S8 season, and it is also the path that G2 feels is most suitable for their team after a period of exploration.
But what did the thorn bird choose?
Among the top three heroes currently, there is only one Luo whose ultimate move is worth stealing.
The other two, whether they are Spider Queen or Jace, look like idiots after stealing them.
Damn shapeshifters!
"Okay, okay, let's ban the hero first, Xayah still needs to be banned."
G2's coach interrupted their argument and then pressed Xayah first.
Following closely, G2's coach targeted Vayne again.
Although Vayne played relatively few times in this MSI, her performance was very good. In addition, her opponent was Li Luo, and Vayne had a certain advantage against Yin Zerrell. Therefore, G2's coach made this decision after careful consideration.
Decide.
The Thorn Birds team killed the excavator and the prince without any hesitation.
These two heroes are one of Jankos' better heroes.
But the G2 team smelled something different.
"Don't they ban the blind monk?"
Jankos spread his hands: "wtf? How dare they not ban my blind monk? They have never been kicked by me, and they have never experienced the power of me, the number one blind monk in Europe."
"No, brother, the number one blind monk in Europe is Broxah."
"NONONO, his blind monk's winning rate is only 55, but my blind monk's winning rate is 57. I advise you to wash your damn eyes and take a good look at the data."
"Okay, I was wrong, do you want to take it?"
After Kos's confident and proud look, he felt that it didn't look like a fake.
Although he and Jankos have only been teammates for half a year, Jankos' eyes can't hide anything. When he lies, people can tell at a glance, like a clown.
When caps finished speaking, the heroes on the fourth floor of the Thorn Birds team were also finalized.
This hero is extremely familiar to everyone.
It's not that strong in this version.
But when a certain ID gets the hero, everything is different.
"Ka'Sa...Luo Ge's Kai'Sa! Locked! This is the first time Luo Ge has chosen Kai'Sa as a hero in this MSI event!"
In the commentary box, Guan Zeyuan's eyes lit up and his voice suddenly became louder.
Doinb on the side also said at the right time: "It feels like Brother Luo is going to use his own champion skin... Hey, to be honest, maybe it's because Brother Luo hasn't played Kai'Sa much before, so I gave it to him.
The G2 team has an illusion, an illusion that they think Brother Luo also thinks Kai'Sa is weak."
"But in fact, Kai'Sa is still very powerful after she develops. Kai'Sa in the later stage is definitely a first-tier adc."
…
On the battle table.
"Ka'Sa...are you okay with lining up in the bottom lane?"
G2's coach is a little unsure.
Kaisha matches Luo.
The strength of this combination is still slightly higher than that of Niutou and Yinzeriel.
Although Yinzeriel can mess around, Kai'Sa's output method is quite stable, and once Yinzeriel is at a disadvantage when facing Kai'Sa, there is basically no chance of a comeback during the laning period.
Li Luo's seemingly "stable" choice actually reduced the G2 team's fault tolerance rate a lot!
However, G2's ability to reach this point relies on their courage to fight and fight hard.
When BP reaches a deadlock, teams often have two options.
One is to seek stability and choose heroes who can stabilize the lineup in positions that have not yet been finalized.
Another way is to seek victory in danger.
Continue to improve the offensiveness of the lineup at the expense of fault tolerance.
The G2 team’s choice is the latter.
When the blind monk on the fourth floor and Yasuo on the fifth floor lit up, everyone in the audience gave the G2 team enough applause!
"Yasuo and Blind Sin?! Oh my god, G2 is so competitive."
doinb was obviously a little surprised.
When the two sides were banned in the second round, doinb had stopped making any noise.
Because he himself can no longer guess what the two parties will choose next.
Even from the perspective of a professional player, when the top three picks are made by both sides, it will feel a bit messy.
G2's extremely courageous blind monk Yasuo combination is completely beyond the scope of heroes that doinb expected.
At this time, doinb was also quite glad that he did not analyze it randomly.
However, Wang remembers saying inappropriately at the side: "In this case, the Thorn Birds side... the middle route will be a bit difficult to choose."
"That's true, but the Thorn Birds should have expected that G2 might swing Silas to the top lane. It depends on whether they are ready for this."
When Guan Zeyuan finished speaking, a hero also appeared on the fifth floor of Thorn Bird.
After seeing this hero, doinb let out a sigh: "Do you still want to choose Kassadin? Kassadin is not easy to beat Yasuo."
Regarding the hero Kassadin, doinb obviously still has a lot to say.
After all, he and Xiye are the only ones who have a thorough understanding of the hero Kassadin.
doinb clearly knows that if you choose Kassadin to fight Yasuo, even if Kassadin is at the same level, he will not collapse, but you will definitely not get any lane rights in the early stage.
However, the thorn bird finally locked down.
"locked……"
Guan Zeyuan smacked his lips and was silent for a while.
To be honest, he was not sure about the specific thoughts of Thorn Bird at the moment.
However, Wang remembered that he thought of a situation and said with some hesitation: "Could it be that... this Kassadin..."
"Could it be for Brother Holy Spear?"
doinb was a little hesitant: "I remember that in the S6 season, Brother Holy Spear had taken several Kassadins on the road, and his winning rate was very good."
Doinb's words left Guan Zeyuan and Wang Qianqiu confused.
Although Guan Zeyuan is very good at memorizing these things, he is still a little confused about whether Holy Spear Brother can play Kassadin.
After all, Kassadin's appearance in the top lane position only happened for a brief period of time.
And it's quite a long time ago.
As a veteran professional player in the LPL region, doinb is really likely to remember this.
After all, the QG team that doinb was a part of had excellent results.
Neither Guan Zeyuan nor Wang remembers it clearly, let alone the G2 team, which has a very limited understanding of Holy Spear.
"They really don't think about anything else. Don't worry, I can withstand Jayce's pressure on the top lane. As long as your midfielders can move, Jayce will make it very uncomfortable for them."
Wunder is in a good mood.
He thought he was going to jail.
After all, there are quite a few heroes in the middle who can beat Yasuo, so it’s not difficult to take over the lane from Yasuo.
The key point for both sides in this game lies in the middle.
The junglers on both sides are very capable of doing things in the early stage. If the Thorn Birds side has the advantage in the middle, then Sylas, who may be pressed under the defense tower by Jace and eat up the troops, will be very dangerous. Spider can cooperate with anyone at will.
Jumping over the tower is basically harmless.
On the other hand, if the mid lane of the G2 team gets the lane rights, once Yasuo reaches level 6 and cooperates with the blind monk to catch Jace on the top lane, everyone will basically die.
However, Wunder's mood did not improve for a long time. The Thorn Birds team made an instant switch between the top and middle lanes with about 20 seconds left in the countdown.
Kassadin, ran to the top road.
And Brother Shengqiang is in charge.
Jace was assigned to Xiye.
At this moment, there was some silence in the G2 team’s battle table.
In contrast, the Thorn Birds battle table.
"Brother, Kassadin has a winning rate of 75 in four games. Regardless of how little he plays, his level is no worse than yours, and I have also practiced in the past few days."
Brother Holy Spear said with a smile.
G2 showed off Silas' strategy of swinging up and down when they played SKT.
The original purpose of this tactic was to save a ban position and avoid banning Kassadin.
faker had chosen a Kassadin in the duel with G2, but as expected, faker got hit.
And this is the benefit of hiding tactics in the professional arena.
The more tactics you hide, the more likely you are to catch your opponent off guard.
In the BO5, which is a best-of-five game, if you can win one or even two games by relying on tactical design, then you will have a very advantageous situation in the overall situation.
But since G2 has come up with hidden tactics, it means that they have been exposed on the Thorn Birds side.
The Thorn Birds have time to counterattack.
There is no doubt that Kassadin swings to the top lane, which is the Thorn Birds' countermeasure.
When Sylas fights Kassadin, he doesn't have much of an advantage. At most, he can only push the lane.
But looking at it on the other hand, Jace beats Yasuo...
That’s a real advantage!
At least until Yasuo makes attack speed boots, Jayce can completely hang Yasuo and win the lane right.
"Sure enough, there has been a change of formation... In this case, the lineups of both sides have been completely finalized. The blue side G2 team, Silas in the top lane, Lee Sin in the jungle, Yasuo in the mid lane, and Yin Zerel in the bottom lane.
Paired with cow head!”
"The red side Thorn Birds team, Kassadin in the top lane, Spider Queen in the jungle, Jace in the mid lane, and the bottom duo is Kai'Sa and Rakan!"
"The players on both sides are ready, let's enter the first matchup of the MSI Mid-Season Championship finals together!"
As Guan Zeyuan finished speaking, the sound of cheering could be heard one after another.
Everyone in G2 felt a little heavy at this time.
If the Thorn Birds don't change their formation, the G2 team's early thinking will be very clear.
But this change of formation made their thoughts somewhat confused.
In addition, the lineups on both sides are not suitable for a first-level team invasion. The G2 team is even more uneasy when it is unable to determine the opponent's jungle half.
Both sides came online normally. Without any accident, Xiye directly approached the soldiers and pressed forward.
However, Caps also knew very well. He immediately turned around and did not give Xiye a chance to get his A. Xiye didn't panic. He pretended to turn around and tricked Yasuo into turning around. Then he instantly switched to melee form and struck with the help of a long-range weapon.
The caps are also very delicate. Although he was affected by the Q skill, he also used the Q skill in time to receive the basic attack and exchange blood with his backhand. However, in terms of blood exchange, Jayce, who has a higher burst, is still slightly better.
In the early stage, both sides directly performed a delicate exchange of blood in the middle.
However, when the director switched the perspective to the bottom lane, there were still commotions at the scene.
Li Luo’s champion skin, EDG, Kai’Sa.
In this scene, Li Luo really used it.
It’s not like no team at MSI has used Kai’Sa.
However, very few people use Li Luo, the champion skin. The reason is that each skin has a different feel. For current professional players, most of them are accustomed to using KDA skins, so they suddenly change it.
Kai'Sa, the champion skin of EDG, will inevitably be a little uncomfortable.
It took Li Luo a while to get used to it before he felt the difference between his champion skin and other skins.
Before his rebirth, Li Luo used Jackeylove's champion skin frequently.
Jackeylove's Kai'Sa Champion skin feels very light to use.
Some people like it, and some people don't like it.
In contrast, his own champion skin and IG's skin have different styles and feel.
If the skin of the IG team is biased towards the Chinese style ink color, then the skin of the EDG team has the flavor of the points dark mecha.
There is actually no way to deal with such a huge difference in style. The two teams have won championships one after another, and the colors of the teams are relatively similar. Riot Games can only adapt to the decision.
Compared with Kai'Sa's previous mecha-style skin Barrage Angel, the Kai'Sa in Li Luo's hand has a completely different feel. If Li Luo describes it, it is somewhat similar to the basic attack feel of Lucian in the Source Project series.
.
In the early stage, the Thorn Birds duo in the bottom lane had a relatively good suppressive effect.
Ah P's main focus is on stability, so he plays it very steadily. However, he does not forget to shake and twitch twice during the operation, and even lights up the icon.
Obviously, Ah P wanted to make Li Luo anxious and let Li Luo rush up to suppress him. If you play this game very aggressively, it is easy to make mistakes.
However, Li Luo is an old man.
Currently, the icons that are allowed to be lit on the field still remain at the level of their respective team logos.
Before his rebirth, Li Luo was used to seeing a series of provocative icons such as "Weak Explosion", "I'm So Laughing", "Blame Me", etc. Li Luo was completely immune to it like Ah P.
However, Ah P’s behavior of “disrespecting the integrity of the body” still had a certain effect.
At least Li Luo could only press the line when he was in the bottom lane, but he couldn't make a kill.
Game time is 3 minutes and 06 seconds.
The jungler of the G2 team was the first to appear in the public eye.
Although Jankos may not look like a comedian, he is still quite good.
During the jungle clearing process, Jankos thought over and over again and decided to do a wave of "misplaced" ganks.
Even in the professional arena, most junglers usually follow the idea of either ganking very early in the early stage, or ganking after all the brushing.
Because once the gank fails, not only will one's position be exposed, but one's own farming rhythm will also be affected to a certain extent.
3 minutes and 6 seconds. At this time, the jungler usually fails to kill all the wild monsters.
Choosing this time to gank is a strange move in itself.
It just so happened that Xiye in the middle road didn't have much mana at this time, so he was ready to quickly clear the lane and go home to replenish his supplies.
The opportunity Jankos wants to seize is now.
However, just when he appeared in the middle and rushed to Jace's face with Yasuo, Jace in Xiye suddenly switched to hammer form, flashed behind Yasuo, and launched a reverse E skill to push Yasuo towards him.
He hammered in the direction of his own upper half of the wild area.
At the same time, a bright spider web was thrown out from the other side of the wall, hitting Yasuo accurately.
