For several days in a row, Yezi Rank played top lane, and occasionally played a few big brawls.
In this state, time passed quietly, and the MSI finals were finally about to begin.
Everyone outside the world attaches great importance to this game.
The official promotion has been done, and posters of EDG's match against SKT can be seen everywhere.
Even, as soon as you open the league, relevant information about the MSI finals will pop up directly on the interface.
According to professional data, the real-time viewing data of MSI this year has reached the peak value in history.
It can be seen that the popularity of the alliance has continued to grow.
Within the SKT team.
The coaching staff has been studying Yates recently.
They feel that as long as they can limit EDG's bottom lane, others have nothing to fear.
However, the results were minimal.
Kkoma asked in confusion: "This person has been playing top lane, what's going on?"
Several SKT players also looked strange.
They followed Yezi's ranking and found that it was either top laner Kalista or top laner Lucian.
The most outrageous thing is that the effect is not bad...
Huni swallowed: "This person won't come to the road to fight with me."
Thinking of this possibility, Huni actually panicked.
He witnessed the whole process how Yezi tortured his short hands with his long hands, and he was simply not a human being.
He didn't think he could handle the pressure.
"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Peanut said disdainfully: "He dared to choose long hands to walk up in the game. I caught him and his mentality exploded."
Bang: "That's what I say, but we still have to be on guard. EDG has a lot of tricks right now."
Kkoma nodded: "Junzhi is right, EDG has made great progress this year. If we continue to look at EDG with the same eyes as before, we will definitely suffer a big loss.
Moreover, you have also heard EDG’s bottom lane interview. If they lose to EDG again in the finals..."
Everyone was silent.
Two consecutive losses to EDG in the group stage have caused many viewers to question SKT.
If they lose again in the finals, SKT will really become a joke.
The most important thing is that other teams will take the opportunity to add insult to injury, and LCK teams are not friendly with each other.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, KKoma said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, everyone, we still have to be stronger than EDG in terms of physical strength.
Xianghe, you haven’t spoken a word, what are you thinking about?”
Hearing this, Faker's eyes sparkled.
This time, he won't lose again.
…
The competition venue is crowded with people.
Since the beginning of the group stage, the popularity of the game has been rising, and now in the finals, the popularity has reached its peak.
EDG vs. SKT!
This game is not only a strong showdown, but also the grudge between Yates and Faker.
Whether it is to defend the majesty of their triple crown or to maintain the honor of SKT, Faker and SKT have reasons to win.
Such an interesting game also attracted the attention of countless spectators.
Although the game has not started yet, the audience is already waiting in the live broadcast room, waiting for the game to start.
Soon, the two teams appeared at the competition venue.
Suddenly, the fans burst into amazing cheers.
Especially EDG fans, they pulled up a banner in front of the venue with the words "EDG must win" written on it.
"There are so many people today."
Mouse was a little nervous: "I'm a little afraid that I won't be able to play well."
"It's okay, just fight normally." The factory director comforted, "Don't be stressed."
Meiquan: "Didn't you say you wanted to beat up Huni a few days ago? Why are you so cowardly?"
Ye Zi smiled and said: "It's not illegal to brag."
"Who are you bragging? There was too much noise around me just now, which affected my mood." Mouse said, "Let me show you my strength later."
"We are optimistic about you."
While talking, the two teams entered the competition venue.
During the opening ceremony, a group of young ladies came out to dance. After going through a series of tedious procedures, the host began to introduce the players from both sides.
Yezi turned to look at Faker and found that Faker was also looking at him.
Their eyes met, and their eyes instantly became sharp.
Host: "The following is a pre-match interview documentary between the two teams. Please look at the big screen."
Everyone's eyes turned to the big screen.
The next moment, Faker's figure appeared on the screen.
Faker: "In the group stage, my condition was not very good, which caused the team to lose the game. After this period of adjustment, my condition has recovered a lot. I hope I can win the game 3-0 today."
Huo!
After watching Faker's pre-match interview, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.
So confident! Three to zero came out.
After listening to this, LPL fans inevitably felt a little worried.
There is no way, SKT's bo5 is really good.
Although EDG won two BO1 games in the group stage, they were still worried.
After all, bo5 and bo1 are completely different.
Flash Wolves often beat SKT in bo1, but were beaten by SKT in bo5.
Therefore, they are also afraid of something like this happening to EDG.
Host: "The following is the pre-match interview with player Z."
As he finished speaking, light and shadow flickered on the screen.
Immediately afterwards, Yezi's figure appeared.
Yates: "SKT is a very strong opponent, but our team's only enemy is ourselves."
Yezi's words were more tactful compared to Faker, but the subtext was that he didn't take SKT seriously.
For a while, before the two teams started playing, the smell of gunpowder before the game was already coming out.
Finally, the game started, and the two teams entered the player box and began to debug the equipment.
Commentary seat.
Today's commentator is Doll Miller.
Wawa: "Welcome everyone to watch the MSI finals match between EDG and SKT. I am the commentator for this game."
"I'm Miller."
After introducing himself, Wawa said with a smile: "I think everyone has been looking forward to this game for a long time. Like everyone, I also really want to see the strong showdown between the two teams."
Miller: "If we look at the condition, both players are in good condition. It just depends on who can perform better today."
Wawa: "That's right, but I personally think EDG has a higher chance of winning. After all, EDG double-killed SKT in the group stage, so they have a psychological advantage against SKT players."
Everyone booed, but they also knew that Wawa's style was like this. Wawa said that LPL teams never lose money.
Miller: "BP has begun! Let's take a look at the BP situation of the two teams."
On the screen, the interface is converted into the BP interface.
In this round, EDG is on the blue side and SKT is on the red side.
The baby smiled and said: "The winning rate of the blue side is higher, which is a good sign."
Miller frowned and said: "I think the red side is better against EDG."
oh?
Everyone was stunned, wondering why Miller said that.
Miller quickly explained: "EDG is centered on the bottom lane. The red side can directly play the bottom lane duo with one or two hands, but the blue side is not so easy to get out of the bottom lane. Unless you grab a system hero like the policewoman, other
It’s not easy to get out first on the bottom lane.”
"Of course, this is just my personal understanding. I believe the EDG coaching staff has definitely considered this issue."
During the commentary, the first three bans for both sides had ended.
EDG's top three ban positions are: Murloc, Jace and Kennen.
SKT's top three ban positions are: Kalista, Policewoman, and Karma.
"The policewoman and Calista really can't be released."
Seeing the banned person, Miller doll looked at each other, a little helpless.
Wawa: "EDG probably wanted to make mouse play more comfortable. They even banned several of Huni's better offensive heroes, while SKT targeted the bottom lane..."
Miller: "But at present, God Z's hero pool is still relatively deep, so it should not be greatly affected."
"Now it's EDG's turn to choose, I feel like I can grab it first..."
Green God?
Before the explanation was finished, EDG had already locked onto the hero Cuishen.
Even KKoma was a little surprised by this green god: "What is EDG doing?"
However, this does not affect SKT's BP.
SKT locked in Lee Sin + Ice with their backhand. One is the little peanut signature, and the other is the popular AD in the version.
Wawa frowned and said: "EDG's second and third moves must go out of the bottom lane, otherwise SKT will definitely continue to ban the bottom lane in the next round."
This is true. In the EDG team, Nofe directly asked: "What do you want in the bottom lane?"
Ice...
To fight the ice, the best one out there is Verus, there is no other choice.
"Verus Lulu."
On the screen, Verus Lulu is locked.
In fact, until now, there are not many fancy tactics that can be used.
After the opponent picks out a hero, there is a high probability that you will know what the opponent will choose.
Both sides came and went, and soon the lineup was determined.
The lineups of both sides are as follows:
Blue square,EDG.
Order: Shen
Jungler: Cuishen
Mid laner: Syndra
Bottom lane: Verus
Assistant: Lulu
Red side, SKT.
Top order: Rambo
Jungler: Blind Sin
Middle:Fox
Bottom lane: Ice
Support: Tahm
After the lineup is determined, players change heroes for each other.
In terms of lineup, EDG prefers four guarantees and one, while SKT still does not use the incense burner system and chooses a play style with the above midfielder as the core.
"EDG's lineup..." Wawa looked at the screen: "This puts all the treasure in the bottom lane."
"Yes."
Miller actually felt that EDG's lineup was a bit soft, but he didn't say it clearly.
The entire lineup does not force open shots, it is completely a backhand lineup.
Although this lineup is quite in line with EDG's style, fighting is now popular in the LPL.
In the eyes of commentators, lineups with strong initiative will have a higher winning rate.
"I'm not worried about the bottom lane. I'm just worried that the top, middle and jungle can't handle the pressure. SKT's top, middle and jungle are very aggressive in this round."
This is also what the audience is worried about.
Originally, there was a gap between the top, midfield and opponent in terms of strength, but now the hero attributes are also suppressed...
But worries are worries, the lineup has been determined, and they can only pray silently in their hearts that EDG can win.
…
On the field, Yezi chooses talents and summoner skills.
Talent: War Zeal.
Summoner skills: Purify, Flash.
Lulu's talent: Windspeaker's Blessing.
Summoner skills: Healing, Flash.
In this game, Yezi also changed his style of play and was not as aggressive as before.
The reason is very simple. If Ice Tamu wants to resist the pressure, there is nothing they can do.
So, Yates made tweaks to make it more developmentally appropriate.
In his opinion, if the jungler does not come over, it is basically impossible to play in the bottom lane.
After selecting the skill, the countdown is almost over.
Before leaving, Nofe took a deep breath and said: "Come on!"
"come on!"
After saying that, the two coaches bowed, shook hands, and left the field.
The game enters loading state.
[Ding! System tasks have been issued, please check the host]
[Sniper target: Bang
System mission: Win the game, and at the end of the game, Verus's fully charged Q skill hits the sniper target more than 15 times.
System reward: number of draws*10]
After reading the mission, Ye Zi was speechless for a while.
This task seemed simple, but when he thought about it carefully, he found that there were many small details.
Q skill needs to be fully charged...
The easiest skill for Verus to hit Q is to release AQ instantly. Now that the system stipulates this, it means that the hit rate of Q skill will be greatly reduced.
Moreover, the opposite side is not a wooden stake. Just stand still and let him shoot.
Therefore, the difficulty has increased a lot invisibly.
[Stargazing skill has been triggered]
[Host’s current lucky value: 65]
[Eye of Insight skill has been activated]
Opponent player ID:Bang
Comprehensive strength:96
Status: 95
Comprehensive combat power:91
Host ID:Z
Comprehensive strength:99
Status: 97
Comprehensive combat power:96
Looking at the data, Bang’s value doesn’t change much.
The only thing that makes Yezi a little depressed is the luck value. With a luck value of 65, there is basically no luck at all.
But soon, Yezi couldn't think about it anymore.
I saw a flash of light on the screen, and ten team members from both sides appeared in their respective springs.
"Come on everyone."
"Well, come on."
When I first entered the game, my teammates encouraged each other.
At level one, considering that the opponent will invade, EDG will not go near the red buff, and Cuishen will switch to the top lane with blue.
"It's very clever." Wawa: "EDG should avoid its edge in the early stage and wait until the level is higher before fighting the opponent."
Miller nodded.
He wasn't worried about others, he was more worried about Shen who was on the road.
Rambo's laning ability is too strong, especially when playing shorthand, while Mouse gives everyone the impression of being a mess.
Not as good as Huni in terms of hard power, and he chose a blue-collar guy... How to fight on the road?
In other words, can mouse really withstand pressure?
"Huh? Cuishen is back in the city!"
I saw that Cuishen was planting good vegetables in the upper half of the wild area. After taking away the blue buff through punishment, he returned to the city directly.
This behavior is quite confusing.
Soon, Cuishen replenished his status, bought another real eye, and went straight to the bottom lane.
"Cui Shen is..."
The doll was a little confused: "Caught at the second level?"
"After such a long circle..." Miller's eyes flashed: "It seems that if there is a chance, the other side will not be able to guess the location of Cuishen.
The most important thing is that Tahm Kench doesn’t have Purification. If the Green God’s Q skill hits, the three of them have a chance to kill Tahm Kench.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Cuishen had already walked around the edge of the lower road to the grass on the lower road.
Along the way, several EDG players can ensure that the opponent does not have any vision.
In other words, Cuishen's current location is still hidden.
"The Green God secretly hid in the grass." Wawa: "As long as SKT shows a slight flaw in the bottom lane, something will happen."
Miller took a deep breath: "It depends on whether SKT gives the bottom lane a chance."
In the game.
Because the Green God is nearby, EDG bottom lane is always paying attention to the position of the army line.
Soon, the next wave of soldiers arrived, and both sides' bottom lanes were finishing their attacks in the midline.
This position is safe on the line, but it may not be safe if someone comes to catch it.
Seeing Ice Tower getting closer and closer, the doll even sounded a little nervous: "Is there any chance?!"
At this moment, the green god in the grass moved.
At the moment when the minion died, Cuishen used a Q skill to slide past the position of the dead minion.
"Ah?" Wolf didn't even have time to react and was directly hit by Cuishen's Q skill.
The next moment, Verus and Lulu used the passive skill of Emerald God's Q to fly directly into Tahm's face.
