"In the last game, EDG had a very big advantage in the bottom lane. I wonder if IG will make a fuss in the bottom lane."
"Not necessarily. IG also tried to ban several powerful ADs of God Z in the last game, but the effect was actually not very good."
"But if you don't ban the Z-god hero, I think it will be more difficult for the two IG bottom laners to line up, so I think IG still needs to target the bottom lane with BP. Even if they can't target it, it can alleviate the pressure on their bottom lane.
."
"Yes, but in addition to the bottom lane, it is also very noteworthy whether Theshy should use the warrior hero he is good at."
"EDG is still on the blue side in this round. If this is the case, IG will face even greater pressure on the ban position."
…
At the commentary table, two commentators were chatting.
It can be seen that the two of them have done their homework before the game.
There are two issues facing IG now. One is whether to continue to provide Theshy with tank heroes, and the other is how to stabilize the development of the bottom lane...
For these two points, the top lane problem is not that big, the main problem is the bottom lane.
"I think Jace should be given to Theshy."
"EDG probably won't ban Jayce. If EDG releases it, I feel like I can grab it."
"On the top lane, I always take out the bastards, but on the bottom lane, I can't get C. It's too difficult to rely on Rookie alone."
"IG has fans now? You're laughing, you can't beat EDG with anything."
“A team that relies solely on two sticks and C’s still wants to win?”
"Pfft! How dare EDG blame others? If it hadn't been for luck in buying God Z, it's hard to say whether EDG could beat IG now."
"EDG scolded others as a stick team. It's true that the eldest brother is mocking the second brother."
In the live broadcast room, viewers began to send comments.
I have to say that the number of IG fans this year has increased a lot compared to previous years. If it were the previous IG, you would hardly see a few people speaking for IG on the barrage, but now you can see many IG fans supporting IG.
While the commentators were talking about the audience, the top three ban positions of both sides had already appeared.
EDG's top three bans are: Rambo, Snake Girl, and Bullhead.
The top three IG bans are: Xayah, Kalista, and Policewoman.
"EDG has three bans, and there is no ban on any version of heroes." Wang Duoduo looked at the screen: "It seems that EDG is very confident. They have released all versions of heroes for everyone to choose."
"Well~ EDG does have the capital to be confident." Rita: "Judging from the game just now, EDG is indeed stronger in terms of hard power."
"As expected, IG banned three of God Z's more powerful ADs." Wang Duoduo said: "There is no problem. As I just said, these three bans are not to restrict God Z, but to alleviate their own problems.
Bottom pressure.
Without these three powerful ADs, God Z will most likely choose the combination of Luo + Verus. If nothing else, IG should already have a way to deal with it."
"Yes, IG chose the red side on its own initiative this time." Rita analyzed: "The winning rate of the red side is lower, but it also has advantages. In addition to having a counter position, you can directly select the next player in the first round.
Road Duo.”
Everyone looked at Rita with admiration now. Unexpectedly, Vase seemed to have enlightened herself today and she actually spoke eloquently.
"Another three banAD."
In the EDG team, everyone was speechless when they saw IG's ban.
Can't Yates' hero be released for once?
Yezi himself is also extremely depressed. Although his hero pool is very deep, after removing the version heroes and heroes who cannot play, there is not much AD that can be used.
Ice, Verus, EZ, Vayne, Draven...
AD heroes flashed through Ye Zi's mind one after another. Ye Zi rubbed his head and thought about which AD would be suitable for this round.
"Leaf, do you want to take it first?" Nofe asked from the side.
"Steady your hand." Yezi said: "See if the opponent's first two hands can get the lane combination."
Nofe nodded. The red side's first and second choices are the easiest to create a bottom lane combination. After the opponent releases a hero first, it won't be too late for them to take the lane depending on the situation.
"If we don't take the route, we'll grab Luo."
Xayah is banned, but Rakan is still outside, and Rakan has a very high winning rate, so he can also be the core initiator in the lineup.
"What do you think, sister?"
"Luo can do it." Meikou also agreed that the team would choose Luo.
The next moment, EDG grabbed the hero - Luo.
"It's still Luo." Wang Duoduo: "EDG took Luo first in the last game. It seems that Luo has a high priority in EDG."
Rita: "Maybe it's still a combination of Verus + Luo."
"Well, this combination is still okay. I didn't choose AD first. I probably wanted to see IG's first and second hand selections."
"Anyway, I think IG has to use the duo in the bottom lane. If we wait until the second round, the outside AD may not be enough."
After saying that, IG locked the hero first and second - Big Mouth, Lulu.
oh?!
When they saw the selection of IG's bottom lane duo, everyone was stunned for a moment.
Lulu Big Mouth is a classic combination. Together, the two of them have good laning and teamfighting abilities, and they are even stronger in the mid-to-late stage.
But don’t forget, IG’s bottom lane is West and Megan. How dare IG safely let them use these two heroes?
IG fans didn’t understand either and complained on the barrage——
"What the hell? Can't you choose an ice tool man in the bottom lane? You have to have a big mouth and look disgusting."
"Looking at these two guys in the bottom lane, they don't look like they can do C."
"Why do you dare to use heroes like this?"
"Can Coach IG die? BP did the same thing as Xiang."
Not to mention the audience, the two people on IG's bottom lane were also a little scared at the moment.
West said with a sad face: "Is this possible?"
The IG coach patted him on the shoulder: "Xiaoxi, remember my words in this game, no matter what the opponent does, you develop yours, Megan, do more vision in the bottom lane, and Ning, you don't need to gank the bottom lane.
But when we come down, we can help with the view."
"Yeah." Ning responded calmly,
He also understood the implication of the IG coach's words. He didn't need to worry too much about the bottom lane, but he didn't expect the bottom lane to give him feedback.
Thinking of this, King Ning secretly sighed. Although he rarely ganked the bottom lane, if he completely gave up the bottom lane, it would be equivalent to missing a gank route. However, any top jungler would soon be able to smell his way.
Numbers are targeted.
To put it simply, he originally had three gank routes, and the opposite jungler was not so easy to guess. Now that the bottom lane is directly passed, there are only two gank routes left. With the awareness of the factory director, he can guess his position with a high probability.
Invisibly, the difficulty of his wild area has become a bit more difficult, but King Ning is also a master who refuses to admit defeat, and he does not think that he will lose to the factory director this way.
"Big mouth Lulu..."
In the EDG team, Nofe touched his chin.
If it is these two heroes, then IG will most likely be in the late stage, and compared to the previous game, IG also took out the Incense Burner monster in the bottom lane this game.
"You want Verus?"
"No, the opponent probably won't give you a chance like they did in the last game." Yezi said, "It's a rat. I haven't used a rat in a long time."
mouse?
Nofe was stunned for a moment, then said: "You have to come up with this lineup so early?"
"It's foolproof."
Several other EDG players also smiled. Choosing the Mouse was not random, but a lineup with a relatively high winning rate in the training matches.
"OK." Nofe said: "Then just choose."
As soon as the words were said, EDG locked in the second and third hands - the rat and the big insect, and IG confirmed the prince in the third hand.
At this point, the first round of BP is over.
"From the perspective of the first three players, EDG is a late team battle lineup." Wang Duoduo said unexpectedly: "EDG rarely uses this kind of lineup recently. They usually use a more offensive early and mid-term lineup, but in fact, the late team battle lineup
That’s EDG’s special skill.”
Rita smiled and said: "It seems that EDG is bound to win this game."
"Yeah, but the IG lineup is also very capable in the late stage. Let's look at the follow-up BP on both sides."
The second round of BP begins.
EDG banned Zac and Ekko again, while IG banned Lucian and Rock Bird.
"Both sides took aim again..."
"IG still has no mid laner and jungler to choose from, who should the counter position be left to?"
"Plane, let's get the plane first."
In the IG team, the IG coach decisively chose Rookie off the plane.
Aircraft are quite strong in this version, and even if Lucian is banned, the aircraft's online development will be relatively comfortable.
"Plane?" Wang Duoduo: "Another plane! Then IG is a super late-stage lineup."
Rita: "I don't know how EDG will respond. I think we should add another big core output."
Single core versus single core, dual core versus dual core, this is Rita's game understanding.
Not to mention, Rita was right. When it was EDG's turn to choose a hero, EDG decisively locked on the two heroes Clockwork Demon and Mantis.
"Huo!" Wang Duoduo couldn't help but said: "Qi Jiang's signature mantis is meant to be carried."
"As a harvesting position, Mantis has a lot of room to play in this round."
Rita: "EDG's hands are very long and can be pulled and hit. When the opponent's health is reduced, let the mantis go over and harvest it."
"Yes, and have you noticed, EDG's AOE damage is relatively high, and it is easy to have super team fights."
At first, everyone didn't pay attention, but after Wang Duoduo said this, everyone also discovered the advantages of EDG's lineup.
"If the control chain is connected well, EDG has a chance to have a perfect team fight."
"I haven't seen EDG with such a slow-paced lineup for a long time."
"I don't know if EDG is unfamiliar with this lineup. In fact, I don't feel the need to use this lineup. It's good to use the fast-paced play style in the early and mid-term."
On the barrage, countless viewers began to point out Jiangshan.
As for IG, there is still the last ban position left, which is King Ning's jungle position.
The IG coach turned his attention to Ning, who was a little helpless: "Can I take the blind monk?"
"It's not good. Now the team lacks a team leader."
"call!"
King Ning exhaled, there was nothing he could do. When he saw the lineup, he knew that it was impossible to choose a meaty jungler for him in this round.
"Then what should I get? Pig Girl?"
"You don't like to play pig girls? I'll give you another one this round, playing wild wine barrel."
Wine Barrel is a snake oil hero in this version. He can be used in the wild or in the wild. He is positioned as a team-starting tool that can fight against damage.
"What the hell!"
Prince Ning couldn't help but cursed in his heart.
I have to say that the coach is quite outrageous. He just complained in the background that the coach chose a weak jungler like Zac for him, but the coach backhanded him a barrel in this game.
Damn! Isn’t this still a weak jungler? Is there a difference?
However, despite Ning's careless appearance, he knows what he is doing.
With Lulu's Big Mouth and Airplane around, IG will not be short of damage.
Therefore, no matter how he chooses, he can only make up a tool man.
What made him feel balanced was that although Theshy took a hero like Prince, who seemed to be very offensive, he was actually just a tool.
Even Theshy wants to be a tool man, and it’s not that unacceptable for him to be a tool man now.
Thinking of this, Ning immediately calmed down and looked at the wine barrel on the screen with his eyes flickering.
No matter what hero you use, a jungler who can play a rhythm is the best jungler.
"In this round, I will show you what the wine barrel show mantis is."
Prince Ning took a deep breath and made a promise in his heart.
"It's confirmed, wine barrel." Wang Duoduo: "A little surprised, I didn't expect that IG's counter position would get wine barrel.
But if you think about it carefully, IG really needs a team initiator."
Rita: "Compared to jungle junglers like Mantis, Wine Barrel jungler is more demanding on rhythm. It depends on whether King Ning can bring up the rhythm."
"This depends on the performance of the players."
With the wine barrel confirmed, the lineups of both sides were completely determined.
The lineup is as follows:
Blue square, EDG.
Top order: Big Insect
Jungler: Mantis
Mid laner: Clockwork Demon
Bottom lane: Rat
Assistant: Luo
Red square,IG.
Top order:Prince
Jungle: Barrel
Mid laner: Airplane
Bottom lane: Big Mouth
Assistant: Lulu
The lineup is determined, and players from both sides change heroes for each other.
Yates chooses the talent: Zeal for War.
Summoner skills: Healing, Flash
The courage of the Luo talent colossus, summoner skills: ignite, flash.
"Have you changed your talent?"
Seeing that Luo didn't bring Thunder, Nofe smiled and said: "Colossus is good, Thunder's talent is too tightrope to walk."
Compared to the aggressiveness of his teammates, Nofe still prefers stability.
"Yes, yes, Thunder is not very good."
Everyone quickly responded and watched Nofe and the IG coach bow and shake hands before leaving the field together.
The game enters the loading interface.
"Now that the heroes on both sides have been selected, the game is about to begin." Wang Duoduo took a deep breath: "Both sides have chosen a lineup with stronger late-stage capabilities. The overall situation is relatively similar. I don't know which side can be better?"
Rita: "Personally, I am looking forward to the game between the two teams. I feel that both sides have more ideas, especially EDG. They are creative in almost every game. Today, they even used the combination of Mouse + Luo in the bottom lane."
"It's a bit strange. I think the combination of Mouse and Luo is too weak. It's weaker than Lulu. However, it is quite strong in combination with the jungle. As long as Luo is opened, the jungler can catch it at will."
“I don’t know if the second game will be like the first game, where I can gain an advantage in the early stage.”
…
During the explanation, Yezi had been waiting for the system task to arrive, but unfortunately, there was no movement from the system.
"It's probably gone."
Ye Zi was a little disappointed, but he wasn't that surprised. System tasks appeared randomly, and it was impossible to receive tasks in every game.
At this moment, a light flashed on the screen, and ten team members from both sides appeared in their respective springs.
"here we go!"
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but feel refreshed.
The second game between EDG and IG finally started.
