After the first day of the group stage, the pattern is actually relatively obvious.
Except for IG, which seems to be quite competitive, the other regions are almost the foil of LCK and LPL.
In fact, this is normal.
Compared with the involution of LCKLPL, Europe and North America are too easy.
Get off work on time five hours a day. If there are too many players, you can sue the team for abuse.
Under this situation, Europe and the United States want to compete with LCK and LPL?
Does he have that strength?
No.
Although League of Legends relies heavily on talent, no matter who the player is, the talent that makes him a professional player is less than the rare 1% that is the most powerful in the game.
When the talent gap between everyone is not of an order of magnitude, hard work can really change a lot of things.
"Guigui, I feel like this year's MSI championship is almost certain. It's either IG or UR. These two teams are fighting against other teams."
"Indeed, it feels like the gap is too big."
"Today is about to have a strong conversation, please send me IG!"
"Can you beat the Emperor? Sweat"
Xu Ruoguang was sitting in the lounge at this time, waiting for the game to start and refreshed his anti-pressure bar.
Not surprisingly, everyone is discussing today's game between IG and UR.
"Brother Guang, I heard that you know the top laner on the opposite side?"
Xu Xiu came over curiously and looked at Xu Ruoguang's phone screen.
"Yeah."
Xu Ruoguang calmly turned off his phone,
"We know each other, theshy."
"What kind of player is he?"
Xu Xiu sat next to Xu Ruoguang and asked.
"What kind of player?"
Xu Ruoguang pondered for a moment,
"For me, he is a player who has a good temper towards me."
"The deepest impression on me is that many top laners in the LPL at that time were afraid of playing light warriors because of me, but he still chose to play, well... he was very courageous."
"I think the top laner can do anything, but he can't be afraid of operations. I still appreciate him on this aspect."
Xu Xiu touched his head,
"Then what?"
"What then?"
"After he became a light warrior."
"Then beat him into a super ghost."
Xu Ruoguang chuckled.
Xu Xiu:?
After doing this for a long time, you can only praise him for his courage, right?
"He's not bad at laning. It seemed like he was in his first year in the LPL at that time. Isn't it normal that he couldn't beat me? He was too young."
Xu Ruoguang saw that Xu Xiu had misunderstood and explained.
"This guy was very thoughtless in fighting before. He would fight as soon as I seduced him. He didn't like to do vision. He would die as soon as the jungler caught him."
In terms of lane alone, theshy at that time was already relatively strong.
Unfortunately, this game has never been about laning.
As a top laner, if your anti-gank ability is not up to par, you are very unqualified.
Of course, this is all about the S7 after all.
It’s been a year, and I heard that theshy is currently controlling Thunder in LPL.
He already has the momentum to become the number one top laner in LPL.
Xu Ruoguang is also looking forward to playing against him again.
After all, you can't say that after a year, theshy has not improved in any other problems except for being stronger in laning, right?
It doesn't make sense, it really doesn't make sense.
The IG training team should not be so rubbish.
While he was deep in thought, news came from WeChat.
Big-headed Shiba Inu: I will torture you today, brother Guang, watch out!
Xu Ruoguang was happy, "Is Bozi so confident?"
Brother Qian Diguang: It’s so funny, can you beat Uzi?
Big-headed Shiba Inu: Haha, just hit him casually, it’s just an Uzi.
Brother Diguang: Are you so crazy about Bozi?
Big-headed Shiba Inu: I haven’t even started to fight yet, so you’re not allowed to go crazy?
Brother Diguang: Indeed, now that Uzi is gone, you will be the number one ADC in the LPL.
In the IG lounge, Ah Shui was red and warm.
Damn it, what do you mean?
Does it mean Uzi doesn’t leave or Uzi comes first?
This is such a disgusting guy, right?
Putting down the harsh words again, Ah Shui picked up the phone, full of fighting spirit.
"Chicken! Let's have a good fight today. Let's torture UR. Damn, it's just for Brother Guang. It's so fucking disgusting."
He turned to Rookie and said.
"What did he tell you?"
Broiler asked curiously.
"He said if Uzi doesn't leave, then I will still be the second child."
Ah Shui clenched her fists.
Broiler smiled and patted his shoulder.
"Okay, I believe you."
"We played hard today and won against UR."
Time passed bit by bit, and soon it was time for UR and IG to play.
In the venue, the previously recorded pre-game interview had already started to be played.
The first people to take questions were the assistants on both sides.
"What do you want to say to player n?"
Beryl thought for a moment.
"I feel like there is nothing much to say. I just hope that everyone will play better today and present a better and more exciting game to the fans."
Beryl is actually not crazy, at least not when she was in UR.
He also speaks with very high emotional intelligence.
Faced with the same problem, when asked what she wanted to say to her opponent Beryl, Baolan also seemed very humble.
"Beryl is a very strong opponent, and I hope I can perform well against him today."
Baolan, this player, is actually pretty good.
He trains hard, he is more mature, and he doesn't mess around.
The only problem is also the biggest problem.
It's strength.
Immediately afterwards, it was naturally the turn of the ADCs on both sides.
Uzi was also very aggressive in trash talking before the game.
After all, he and Mingkai have been fighting each other for so many years, and Mingkai’s trash talk has raised the level of Uzi’s trash talk.
"Jackeylove is a very strong player, but sometimes he dies inexplicably. I don't know why. Maybe it's because he wants to get off work early."
Uzi grinned,
"I will also ask him to get off work early today."
Ah Shui's trash talk was even more aggressive.
"Uzi is right, I do do that sometimes."
"But it doesn't matter. I won two championships when I was 17 years old. Brother Uzi, what championship do you have?"
Suddenly, the entire live broadcast room was filled with laughter.
"What kind of champion am I? I am Sanya! Do you understand?"
"So aggressive, Wenbo, please give me more?"
"Guigui, jackeylove's output is so high!"
When the camera cut to Uzi again, Uzi could only smile bitterly and shake his head.
Indeed, a double crown at the age of 17 is an achievement that is too exaggerated.
Except for the 18-year-old Triple Crown winner in the team's top laner, no one seems to be able to compare.
Then, there are the junglers on both sides.
King Ning took the lead in attacking.
"Canyon has been playing very well, but it may be because the opponents he encountered were too weak."
"I feel like there is nothing to study about Canyon. You can win just by playing casually."
Faced with King Ning's trash talk, Canyon behaved harmlessly outside the arena as always.
"Ning is a very strong player. I look forward to playing against him, which may help me gain something and become a better version of myself."
However, although Canyon's trash talk stopped, Xu Xiu's trash talk was still unstoppable.
"Rookie is a very strong mid laner, but that's all."
"I've beaten faker, crown, and pawn. There's no reason why I can't beat rookie."
"I hope he will perform better today, and I don't want the game to end too quickly."
Rookie's response was even more generous.
"Showmaker is an excellent mid laner. I hope to work with him to show my strength and play this game well."
Facing the camera, Rookie smiled shyly.
"Actually, it's okay. After all, our team has an AD who plays very aggressively, Jack. I feel like there's no need to play as hastily as before. I can trust him."
For Rookie, the joining and growth of theshy certainly makes him happy, but the joining of jackeylove is the real solution to IG’s biggest problem.
A weak top laner can still withstand the pressure, but the result of a weak AD is that the team will fall directly to the middle of the pack.
This is Rookie's most direct feeling.
S7, when jackeylove didn’t join IG, what was IG’s performance?
Now that S8 has joined, what will be the results of IG?
This is an iron fact that the history books cannot change.
Top order is just not as important as AD.
Even the current UR is actually similar.
If AD wasn't Uzi, Xu Ruoguang really wouldn't be here.
Because he knows very well how difficult the game will be when Double C is weak, and he will probably have to beat him one to five at that time.
Anyone who understands the game should know that AD is much more important than top laner.
S8's IG top laner may not be able to reach the top four or eight if they change to Duke, but if they change to jackeylove, they may not even be able to enter the World Championship.
After all, S7 didn’t make the cut.
It's not that jackeylove is better than theshy, but the importance of position is not on the same level.
The top order can be the icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide help in times of need.
unless……
It's like Xu Ruoguang, a monster top laner who can hit the opponent's five ban positions by himself.
And in the end, the top laners on both sides started talking trash.
theshy looks calm.
"I have played against Emperor player several times. He is a very strong top laner, but I will not be afraid. I will play to my own strength."
Xu Ruoguang thought for a moment.
"theshy? Who."
He smiled,
"Just kidding, I hope theshy player can fight like a human being today and not die if he is caught again."
"It's been a year, let me see your progress."
Speaking from the perspective of a senior, Xu Ruoguang is completely qualified.
However, some shy fans in China don't actually know him.
They like theshy not only because he is Korean, but also because s8 has just started watching the game, and they only know that theshy is the most dominant top laner in the LPL.
At this time, when I saw my favorite player being said like this, I also complained in the barrage.
"Who is this person? Why are you talking about my shy brother like that?"
"That's right, my shy brother is invincible, why does he say that?"
Then, they were scolded so hard that they lost their consciousness.
"Unbelievable, you don't even know the Emperor?"
"Your shy brother is a little older than Guang brother this year, but Guang brother has already won three FMVPs, why do you want to touch other people?"
“It’s so funny that someone is asking who the Emperor is, hahaha.”
Although Xu Ruoguang is no longer in the LPL, his legend is still circulating in the LPL.
Players from both sides appear!
Xu Ruoguang took the stage smoothly, and as expected, was the only one among all the contestants who received cheers.
He is currently the number one top laner in the world.
widely accepted.
Even Uzi and Ah Shui don't get this treatment.
Hongmi held his little tactical notebook and watched them enter the competition room.
"Yesterday's tactics worked very well, let's just come."
He said quietly,
"Although IG probably watched our video yesterday, with their analysts and training team, I don't think they can see through the core of our play style."
Uzi nodded silently,
"I know, I will stabilize later."
"Come on, brother Uzi, if it doesn't work, we can still fight for four guarantees and one. You are the final cornerstone."
Xu Ruoguang cheered him up.
"Okay, let's watch your performance, Brother Uzi."
Uzi chuckled.
I feel much better.
After all, it is inevitable that you will feel a little bad after knowing that you have been left alone.
Xu Ruoguang's cheering made his heart warm.
BP, start!
IG got the blue side, and UR was assigned to the red side.
"Tam."
In IG's first move, Kim Chang-soo chose to kill Tahm.
Yesterday, he had definitely watched the UR1511's brutal FW match.
Because of Tahm's presence, UR's midfield and upper jungle entered the field unscrupulously.
He felt that this move was a very important part of the UR system, so he naturally clicked it directly.
Hard support is very strong in this version, and Tahm Kench has never been under any pressure in melee hard support.
There is nothing wrong with moving.
Hongmi smiled.
"Tamu? He's not so stupid as to break through the sky. There is still something there, although not much."
"Scorpion."
UR first hand, choose to press the scorpion.
This creates an opportunity for the male gun mantis to appear.
Although you may not necessarily get it, you should at least provide this possibility in BP to disrupt the IG coach's vision.
Hongmi’s BP can do whatever they want, and the players are all heroes.
So he can easily limit BP.
"Can I play Thane today?"
Kim Chang-soo asked about theshy.
He hopes that theshy will take on Thane, at least this hero is really good.
But theshy hesitated.
From his perspective, he wanted to have a good duel with Xu Ruoguang.
I definitely want to get warriors like the Four Sisters or Crocodile.
As for the top lane shooter?
Haha, Kim Chang-soo can't let him play. If you want to play, just go and be a substitute.
So theshy has never thought about it now.
He just doesn't really want to play Thane.
His hesitation was noticed by Jin Changzhu, who sighed slightly in his heart and did not force it.
Although Kim Chang-soo resents the players for not listening to the coaches, he can sometimes understand the players' thoughts.
For theshy, this is an opportunity for him and Xu Ruoguang to avenge their humiliation after a year.
A year ago, he was a warrior who could not be defeated by a warrior, and could not be defeated by a shaker.
Now, after growing up, theshy wants to win the line, which is understandable.
He pondered for a moment.
"Sean."
IG's second move was to remove the mid-to-upper swing hero, Thain.
The strength of Banner of Command Thane has been verified on the first day, and it is abnormal.
As for IG, Rookie's Thane doesn't play much, only theshy.
Unfortunately, now that he doesn't want to play with theshy, Kim Chang-soo has no choice but to move it.
"Moving Thane yourself? Interesting."
Xu Ruoguang raised his eyebrows slightly and showed an elusive smile.
He has watched a lot of theshy game videos, and his Thain performance is very good.
Now, IG has removed Thain on its own.
It’s almost clear that theshy doesn’t want to play.
So, if he doesn't want to play Thain, he must just want to have a good battle with Xu Ruoguang in the lane.
Xu Ruoguang was a little happy.
How long?
How long has it been since I've been so stubborn...ah, no, I've been so brave in the top lane.
Be brave and shy and not afraid of difficulties.
theshy, I admire you very much!
Not to mention winning without fighting, Xu Ruoguang really admired theshy for showing such will.
"Zach."
UR's second choice was to target Zach of King Ning.
He has always performed very well playing this kind of team-starting hero, and his rhythm is also very good.
The core of IG is still a team whose midfielder drives the rhythm, and the benefits from targeting the midfielder are definitely the greatest.
"Sword Princess."
In the third hand, IG chose to press Sword Girl.
Because, theshy wants to use Jace.
When Sword Lady beats Jace, let’s not talk about the laning situation. After the mid-term, Sword Lady’s single-band ability cannot be matched by Jace.
In order to prevent the winger from being completely unable to resist, Jin Changzhu still chose to respect the swordsman Xu Ruoguang.
As for UR's third move, he chose to kill Verus.
"Ah? Verus? This BP move isn't very good, is it?"
Colonel Guan said doubtfully.
"The strongest ADs in this version are Kai'Sa and Varus. If UR kills Varus in the third hand, Kai'Sa will have no natural enemies. Could it be that this bottom lane team is Xia Luo? In this case, it can still
beat."
This is what Redmi intends to do!
He just wants to force IG to take Kai'Sa.
Is Kai'Sa a strong hero?
Very strong, now the three-piece suit has the ability to take over the game.
But Kai'Sa has a problem.
In today's version, Kai'Sa's laning ability is not top-notch.
If you want your support to move, you have to reduce some of the laning pressure on Uzi.
If IG gets Kai'Sa, no matter whether Uzi chooses EZ or Xayah, nothing will happen to him even if he is alone in the line.
Because Kai'Sa's early output is not enough.
Giving up is not giving up, and joking is not nonsense.
"Kasha."
Jin Changzhu couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was in Hongmi's gourd, but he felt that there was no problem in choosing Kasha.
So IG grabbed Kai'Sa directly.
"Xia Luo."
UR first and second-hand selected Xia Luo and decided on the layout of the bot lane group.
Xia Luo's laning is still very good. Although it is no longer invincible at the first level with double W, it is still a first-class bot lane team when combined.
"Nvtan."
In the second move, Jin Changzhu selected Baolan's support to counter Luo, a female tank.
Kashaga, the female tank, is also a relatively classic bottom lane team in this era.
After selecting the female tank, Kim Chang-soo looked at theshy.
"Are you sure? Jace?"
theshy took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
"Sure, Jace!"
Jin Changzhu said no more.
The third hand, future guardian, Jace!
This hand Jace is no problem.
Robbing Jace can be regarded as robbing instead of moving.
Use Jace's advantage in the early and mid-term to delay Kai'Sa's development. When the lineup is formed in the mid-to-late stage, it can also provide poke output.
Still quite reasonable.
"Wow, IG chose Jess. Theshy is very confident. I like his attitude very much."
The European and American commentators were a little surprised.
Although the blue side of IG could not get the final counter position, he dared to take out Jace in the first three hands. He felt that this was a kind of confidence.
And within the UR team.
"Jace?"
Xu Ruoguang smiled.
"Ruoguang, what do you want to use?"
Hongmi patted his shoulder.
"You don't have to think about it, bro."
Xu Ruoguang smiled faintly,
"Give it to me, Dao Sister."
To be honest, Xu Ruoguang really didn't expect that IG would dare to choose Jess for theshy first.
It's true that Jace is very strong, and it's also true that removing Sword Lady will reduce the pressure in the later stage.
However, this is not the reason why you dare to take out Jace so confidently in the first three hands.
Because in this version, there is a hero who is Jace’s biological mother and has just been reworked.
Blade Will, Irelia!
The woman beats Jess with a knife, highlighting a mother beating her son.
theshy, since you chose Jace so confidently, you want to be countered by me.
Then, I'm going to come in.
Hongmi smiled and nodded, "Okay."
He has gradually transformed into the former KKoma coach.
Maintain absolute trust in Xu Ruoguang.
This is not because Hongmi itself has no opinion.
It would be the same for any coach.
When your top laner can defeat the opponent no matter what he plays, as a coach, you will unknowingly choose to trust him unconditionally.
This is quite normal.
Almost instantly, a few seconds after Jace took it out, Irelia, who looked indifferent and proud, appeared on UR's third choice.
Female swordsman, beat Jess!
The atmosphere instantly became lively.
This is quite normal.
When Thane beats Ornn, everyone will just become sleepy.
Even before the 20 minutes of the pilot, the screen will not cut to the road.
It's really nothing to see.
And this one, whether it's theshy or Xu Ruoguang.
They all showed great spirit as top laners.
They are all guys with the soul of being a top laner!
"Good guy, Brother Guang is still the same Brother Guang. If you dare to play with Jace, I will fight you with a female sword to see who is stronger."
Colonel Guan sighed.
"Brother Guang's fans may be the happiest fans in the world. You never have to worry that he won't be able to play the version of the hero, let alone that he doesn't have the courage to do it."
"Only the middle and jungle players are left on both sides. Let's continue to look at the second round of BP!"
BP enters the second round!
"Ritz."
Hongmi took the lead and pressed down Ryze.
This move is quite reasonable from his perspective, but domestic audiences don't think so.
Because Rookie’s Ryze already has some underworld scenes.
"It's useless to move, Rookie's Ryze understands everything."
"Indeed, you can always trust Rookie, unless he plays Ryze."
"Hahaha, Hongmi probably didn't expect that either, right?"
"Rock bird."
IG chose to press Showmaker's rock bird.
Although Xu Xiu's rock bird before was not particularly eye-catching, he did everything he needed to do without making any mistakes.
When UR could get the hero first in the second round, Kim Chang-soo didn’t want to get the Rock Bird for UR.
"Prophet of the Void."
UR’s last move is to choose to kill the grasshopper.
This version of the hero Gulinaza is quite powerful, and her ability to play rhythm is very strong. If the midfielder and jungler are targeted together, they are almost sure to kill.
Since Hongmi brought out the Sword Girl for Xu Ruoguang, she naturally had to ensure the environment in which the Sword Girl enters the arena.
"Zoe!"
Kim Chang-soo immediately counterattacked and knocked down Zoe.
The coordination between Xu Xiu's Zoe and Canyon was superb, creating famous scenes.
There is no need to let go of this hand.
Entering the final selection stage.
UR directly selected the prince first hand.
"Prince?"
Jin Changzhu read silently for a moment, his expression stern.
Prince, Galio?
"Tsar, Piggy."
IG finally selected the Tsar and Pig Girl.
Rookie's czar is still very strong.
This move of Czar is to prevent Galio from entering the game.
The reason why I didn't grab Galio is very simple.
What is IG’s lineup now?
Jace, Kai'Sa, female tank.
This version of the AP jungler has almost no space to play. If Galio is grabbed in the middle, IG's lineup will basically have no AP output.
And there is no AP output, once the sword girl gets up...
I really like what Man Wang said: Zhejiang Satellite TV is a massacre.
Therefore, the AP in the middle must be paid, and there is no reason to grab Galio.
The fifth move of UR is naturally Galio.
Hongmi looked calm.
He knew that it was impossible for IG to grab Galio, so he took the prince first.
BP for both parties is completed!
