The reason why the red side is liked by some teams is because of the counter position on the fifth floor.
Although the red side will be at a slight disadvantage in the first three BP moves, if the BP tactics are used properly, a fifth-floor counter position can often change the attributes of the entire lineup.
But it is not easy to change the entire lineup with the last hero on the blue side.
IG, I did it.
When the EZ on the fifth floor was selected, NB's coach felt his head buzzing.
The current playoff version they are playing is 7.15.
There are several special changes in version 7.15. One is the launch of the redesigned Urgot, and the other one that deserves more attention is the enhancement of Ezreal.
Ezreal's Q skill's cooldown has been reduced by 1 second in version 7.15.
You must know that EZ's Q skill can reduce the cooldown reduction of all skills.
And his Q skill only has a cooldown time of 6.5 seconds at level 1 without any CD bonus.
Now it has been directly reduced by one second, which is a major enhancement for Ezreal before level 9.
However, the strengthened Ezreal is still not easy to appear in the adc position. Currently, the only strong team in the LPL that will choose Ezreal is RNG.
Ultimately, it's because the front row of this version is too meaty.
Ezreal needs at least two to three pieces of equipment to be effective. Compared with heroes like Big Mouth and Varus, Ezreal's ecology in the bottom lane is very fragile.
However, the innovative thinking of players is endless.
Whether it is the jungler Swift who is playing now or the coach of the NB team, they all know clearly that the number of EZ junglers in the Korean server is rising recently, and the winning rate is also frighteningly high.
Based on the normal version adaptation rhythm of LPL teams, this version of EZ will not appear on the competition field. After all, players need time to practice. As a traditional adc hero, EZ is not difficult, but for jungle players
If you want to become more proficient in it, you need to practice it quite frequently.
In the anxious schedule of the playoffs, most players will further consolidate their familiar heroes as the main starting point for training.
But IG... took out this hero so early, which caught everyone in the NB team off guard.
No one doubts whether King Ning can play EZ well.
I have transitioned from the adc position to the jungle position. Not only can I easily pick up a hero like EZ, but I am at least much more skilled than other junglers who want to play but dare not play!
"It's broken."
NB's coach sighed.
Their tactical tone has been set in the first four hands.
On the fifth floor, there was no way to change rashly, so we had to bite the bullet and choose the popular version of the front-row hero Big Bug for the team.
"NB has selected the Big Bug on the fifth floor... The Big Bug has a small weakening in this version, that is, the percentage damage caused by the E skill to the target has been reduced by 1%. For the main E, the consumption of the main E in the lane
This is a big nerf for the big bugs, and the spider queen they chose has also been slightly weakened in version 7.15... which weakens the spider's jungle confrontation."
In the commentary box, Guan Zeyuan was amazed and at the same time had doubts about whether NB's lineup could perform well: "NB will speed up the pace in the early stages of this game. They have to be faster than the IG team, otherwise this will not be possible."
The lineup is not easy to play in the middle and late stages."
"It is indeed the case. The key is that they have to consider Ezreal's early combat effectiveness when executing tactics. In this game, it is difficult for them to invade at level 1. The IG team has too much control, and EZ has a level 1 output capability that is very good.
A strong hero is...difficult."
Hao Kai also commented from the side.
"Anyway, the lineups of both sides have been completely finalized. The blue team IG team has Kamil in the top lane, EZ in the jungle, Galio in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo is Destiny Master and female tank.
!”
"Purple side NB team, the top laner is Big Bug, the jungler is Spider Queen, the mid laner is Trickery, and the bottom lane duo is Kalista paired with Thresh!"
"The players from both sides are ready. Let's enter the second game of today's BO5 knockout match. Let's wait and see whether the IG team can get the match point first or NB can get back one!"
After Guan Zeyuan finished speaking, he listened to the sound of cheering coming from the scene, but his eyes fell on the coaches shaking hands in the center of the stage.
To be precise, he is watching mafa.
Guan Zeyuan really didn't expect Mafa's final change.
He studied this version very carefully.
Although there has been no actual combat for him to verify his thoughts, Guan Zeyuan has a vague feeling that under IG's seemingly reverse version of the lineup, there is an understanding of the game that even exceeds the current version.
IG chose this lineup, and the bottom lane is the most uncomfortable, and may even be jumped at the third level.
But they...seem...only the bottom lane is uncomfortable.
…
Inside EDG's base.
Abu held a small notebook in his hand, and the pen in his hand kept tapping on the small notebook.
Although IG is not in the same half zone as them, the recent performance of the IG team has given Abramovich a greater sense of crisis.
What if both of their teams reach the end and have to compete for the number one seed ticket?
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
Mingkai was sitting next to him, and the two most vocal tacticians in the two teams were actively studying their opponents in the next round.
"They, the fortune tellers... have chosen something."
Ming Kai frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly said.
Abu took a look at the comments and shook his head: "But there are very few people who can see it. I don't know how IG communicates on the BP side. I can only say... If Li Luo takes the initiative to choose the role of Destiny Master
If you come out..."
"Then he would be terrible."
Mingkai took over the conversation: "When the lineup of the NB team was selected for this game, I clearly told IG that no matter what hero you choose in the bottom lane, it would be easy to choose. In fact, if he chooses a small cannon, he can rely on the super long-distance displacement of the W skill.
, although the bottom lane will be suppressed, at least it won’t collapse miserably.”
"But his choice is Destiny Master. This thing is much more useful than other heroes in the mid-term in IG's lineup system."
"yes."
Abu leaned back on the chair: "We have given a big treasure to IG. It can be said that the key to IG's entire team now is Li Luo, and it is not Li Luo. This is Li's philosophy, or Li Zhe for short."
Li Zhe, who just entered the training room:???
"what are you guys saying?"
Li Zhe asked curiously.
"I'm telling you that you are very smart."
Abu said with a smile.
…
Inside Summoner's Rift.
At level 1, everyone on the IG team except Kamil stood together in the lower half.
NB chose this lineup with the intention of invading the jungle.
However, Thresh, who was walking in front, was hit by Ezreal's Q as soon as he entered the river and before he reached the corner of the blue jungle area.
Almost at the same time, The shy clicked on the on-the-way signal and rushed directly towards the front.
"Isn't it good to play in a first-level group?"
Liu Qingsong said.
Thresh's control at level 1 is very unstable.
He can flash hook.
But if he misses the hook, it's only one aspect that he looks like a Muggle. If he doesn't dodge in the bottom lane, his pressure on the line will not be able to achieve the tactical effect they want to implement.
"Then we won't fight. I'll go to Red and come down directly to arrest you at Level 3."
swift said.
His Chinese is excellent.
This is also one of the advantages of the NB team.
doinb has severed all ties with him, but it is undeniable that the Chinese level of these two at this period is definitely the best in the LPL, and even Rookie has to be resigned to it now.
At the IG battle table, King Ning quickly cleared away the red buff and said: "If their spiders are in the red half, then you have to be very careful when you go to level 2 in the bot lane. Make sure you are in good shape and try not to die."
"Well, just play at your own pace and block the bottom lane."
After hearing Li Luo's words, Prince Ning did not respond. He knew Li Luo couldn't see it, but he still nodded silently.
"I came directly to the middle to put pressure. He handed over his W directly, and Lao Song didn't need to hand over his skills."
King Ning pinned the middle lane.
"If I want to have sex, I have to have it."
Rookie, who learned the Q skill at level 1, said with a smile.
This wave of gank Ning Wang is designed to help him relieve stress.
Everything else is secondary.
From God's perspective, at the commentary table.
"The NB team in the bottom lane played very fiercely. The game master really couldn't resist in the early stage, but Ning's side has already reached the middle lane! Coco's wave of consumption handed over W, and Ning went straight up!"
As Guan Zeyuan's voice sounded, King Ning fired the first shot of the game.
The E skill directly closes the distance with the enchantress. After raising his hand and AQ to hit the enchantress, the effect of Wind Rider is directly triggered.
Although the Enchantress stuck by the red buff was retreating, Ezreal, who was unreasonable and unforgiving, used the acceleration effect of the Wind Rider to keep chasing the Enchantress. Coupled with the burning deceleration of the red buff, he was only the first.
Wave gank clicked out the passive clone of Enchantress.
"I can't fight and dodge, so I retreat."
Prince Ning said and began to move towards the upper half.
"enough."
Rookie said with a smile.
King Ning's wave of gank directly emptied the Enchantress's recovery items.
Li Luo took a look at the ecology in the middle between the lanes.
Not everyone is called a showmaker and can use an unusual entry item like a long sword to restrain his opponents.
These groundbreaking ideas are still too far away for NB's mid laner.
The audience at the scene watched helplessly as the enchantress was being crippled without any resistance, and bursts of low cheers followed.
EZ is limited by its equipment. Even if it is strengthened, it still cannot gain an advantage in the bot lane ecological chain.
But playing in the wild is different.
Its skills can reduce the CD and the number of stacks increases the attack speed. This means that EZ's clearing speed is destined to be very fast. The better the equipment, the faster it will be.
And Fengqi EZ's unreasonableness started after getting red in the first wave.
It just makes you lose your temper.
Moreover, the jungle EZ does not need to use Tears of the Goddess to stack Magic Cut.
With the battery life provided by the blue buff, EZ can make the warrior jungle knife in the shortest possible time.
If the warrior jungle knife costing less than 2,500 yuan could be made ten minutes ago, you can imagine how terrifying the benefits it provides to Ezreal are!
Looking at the troops that were about to be pushed into the tower, Li Luo's mentality was very stable.
He believes that when he illuminates his teammates, they can also become his most solid backing.
