Time passed by, and everyone was waiting for EDG's third choice.
Soon, the time began to count down, but EDG still made no move.
This scene made many viewers worried.
Wang Duoduo: "You haven't chosen someone yet? The time is almost up."
Huan Huan and Su Xiaoyan also secretly worried about EDG. Huan Huan said: "It may be a bit difficult to choose. C9's first few picks were really tricky."
It’s not enough to say that C9’s BP is particularly good. If they play against other teams, their BP will be just like that.
But C9 obviously knows EDG better and can accurately target EDG in every BP move, so EDG is not that easy to pick up heroes.
"Coach C9 has coached EDG before..."
During the explanation, there was finally a change on the screen.
However, when everyone saw the hero targeted by EDG, their expressions suddenly changed.
"Zyra?!"
Yes, the hero identified on the screen is Zyra.
"this……"
In the commentary box, the one with the highest understanding among the three commentators was looking at Zyra on the screen with dull eyes at the moment, completely confused as to what EDG's pick meant.
Crazy?! Is this version of Zyra really viable? Which AD can Zyra match up with?
For a time, countless thoughts flashed through Hallucination's mind.
Wang Duoduo: "Isn't it the wrong choice?"
Su Xiaoyan: "As for Zyra... very few teams will choose this hero. It should be the wrong choice."
Everyone is speculating, and even C9 feels that EDG's hand of Zyra is too outrageous.
Assistant Smoothie laughed directly: "The pressure on the opponent is so great? Zyra even came out."
The C9 coach raised his lips slightly and said proudly: "If nothing unexpected happens, they will call timeout soon.
Their best choices are Pao and Karma, Zyra is impossible."
Seeing the confident look on the C9 coach's face, the confidence of several C9 players suddenly increased.
They were a little nervous at first, but with the C9 coach's first few targeted BP moves, they became more and more confident.
However, the timeout the C9 coach wanted did not appear, and BP continued.
At this time, the C9 coach couldn't hold back the smile on his face: "Is it really Zyra?"
"You made the right choice?"
Everyone outside was also extremely surprised, but then they became excited.
The more bizarre the lineup, the more excited they are.
Qi Huan came back to his senses, looked at the screen and said: "If Zyra made the right choice, EDG should have made special preparations."
If it is hallucinogenic, everyone is more and more looking forward to EDG’s next choice.
Without making everyone wait too long, the second round of BP begins.
Compared with the first round, the BP speed in the second round increased significantly.
EDG is banning Lucian and Dashu. Dashu is easy to understand. The purpose of banning Lucian is mainly because C9 is afraid that C9 will select Lucian Counter Galio. C9 will backhand ban Verus and Rambo to prevent EDG from forming Prince + Rambo + Gary.
Austrian combo system.
"C9's BP is very smart, constantly splitting the linkage capabilities of EDG's lineup..." Qihuan: "Currently, C9 still has no choice between mid and top, while EDG has bottom lane and top lane."
Su Xiaoyan: "Judging from the current selection, C9's overall lineup is relatively weak, and they will probably need to add a big player on the top lane."
Wang Duoduo: "The top laner with relatively high frankness outside is Big Chongzi. Should EDG snatch Big Chongzi away?"
However, unlike Wang Duoduo's prediction, EDG chose the hero for the fourth time - Jhin.
"What?!"
Seeing the hero Jhin, everyone present was once again shocked.
It was their first time meeting the Incense Burner version of Najin. EDG shocked them too much today, one after another.
"Jhin + Zyra..." Qi Huan looked at the screen and his heart moved.
After calming down, he also began to think about the advantages and disadvantages of this combination.
EDG is not stupid, and EDG's bottom lane is even less stupid. How could they choose an inverse version of the bottom lane combination for no reason?
Lost in thought.
The advantage of Zyra + Jhin lies in their powerful consumption ability, control ability and explosive ability during the laning phase.
As we all know, the early outbreaks that rely on skills to survive are more direct, and because these two heroes have long hands, they can suppress the C9 bottom lane without any pressure, and the C9 bottom lane...
The hallucinogenic gaze swept over the hero chosen by C9 in the bottom lane - Big Mouth, Lulu, and the ideas began to become clearer.
"EDG is trying to crush C9's bottom lane?"
While they were thinking about it, Su Xiaoyan and Wang Duoduo were trying their best to smooth things over, which probably meant that EDG had already prepared and this combination was EDG's secret weapon.
The audience doesn't care, it doesn't matter what you choose, what matters is whether you can win.
Moreover, it would be better to win if they choose such a strange lineup. They can then boast that EDG is a breakthrough version of the team, and they can defeat C9 with any hero they choose.
As for losing, I'm sorry...the coach will die first.
…
On the other side, the C9 coach was completely confused by EDG's bottom lane selection.
In the beginning, EDG's selection was completely within his expectations, but now EDG took a reverse version of Zyra + Jhin, which immediately disrupted all his plans.
"coach……"
Sneaky and Smoothie looked at each other and had a bad feeling in their hearts: "How to line up in the bottom lane?"
You don't need to look at anything else. Just look at the lineup and you will know that you can't beat the bottom lane. What's more, the two of them know how much they weigh. Originally, their strength was not as good as that of the opponent. Now the opponent has such a brainless lineup...
The C9 coach took a deep breath and realized that he still ignored EDG's confidence in the bottom lane.
"Once this bottom lane was selected, EDG had no late game at all. Do EDG really think they can break through their own bottom lane?"
At this moment, the C9 coach was confused and couldn't think of a way to deal with it.
Time passed by minute by minute, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Coach C9's head.
What to do? What to get? There is also the problem of bottom lane laning...a series of problems arise one after another.
However, there is no extra time left for the C9 coach to think.
"Coach! The time is almost up!"
The reminders from the team members kept coming, and the C9 coach gritted his teeth: "Get it as planned."
With that said, C9’s final two choices are determined – Big Insect + Snake Girl.
"C9 can still choose between these two options." Hallucination: "Snake Girl can play Conte Galio online, and there is nothing to say about Big Insect. The C9 lineup must add a solid front row."
Wang Duoduo: "Would it be better for EDG to grab the big bug?"
"It's not necessary." Qiu Huan: "There are many heroes out there who can be in the front row. If you grab the big bug, EDG's counter position will be wasted. After all, Jhin has to be chosen no matter what."
"Now EDG still has the last counter position. They can counter the big bugs. I think they can take the troll... Single belt online is a better choice."
With that said, EDG's final choice is confirmed - Gnar.
"Hey, I got Gnar." Qi Huan's eyes lit up: "For Gnar, it will be a test of Zoom's personal ability. The upper limit of this hero is much higher than that of Troll, but the requirements for players' personal abilities are also relatively high.
.
Especially Gnar's anger, if it is not controlled well, Gnar's positive effect will be quite limited."
Su Xiaoyan: "But since EDG got Gnar for the top laner, I believe the players must be more confident in Gnar as a hero."
Everyone nodded.
The competition is not as competitive as ranked games. It is not ruled out that there are some players who practice heroes in the competition, but there are very few such players, and there are basically none in the World Championships.
After all, no matter how weak the players in the World Championship are, they can't be much worse. If you have heroes with low proficiency, it may be a retirement battle.
A player's worth is closely related to his performance. Even if you can't win the game, but if you perform well, there will still be no shortage of clubs poaching you with high salaries. But if you get 0/7 or 0/8 and you are either single-killed or caught, then unless you have traffic
He is extremely tall and has a group of loyal fans, otherwise no club would be willing to sign such a player.
No more gossip.
With Gnar locked down, the lineups of both sides were also determined.
C9, blue square.
Top order: Big Insect
Jungler: Male gun
Mid laner: Snake Girl
Bottom lane: Big Mouth
Assistant: Lulu
EDG, red square.
Top order: Gnar
Jungler:Prince
Mid laner: Galio
Bottom lane: Jhin
Support: Zyra
The lineup is determined, and players from both sides change heroes for each other.
Ye Zijin's proficiency level has already been maxed out, and his talent skills are selected almost instantly.
Talent: Embrace of Hellfire.
Jhin is a hero with particularly high attack power, and he can get an attack power bonus with Embrace of Hellfire.
The summoner skill chose conventional healing + flash.
Zyra's talent: Lord Thunder's decree, focusing on burst.
The summoner skill selects Ignite + Flash.
Nofe kept sighing while watching this scene.
In his opinion, any AD combined with Karma would be better than this combination.
Although Zyra and Jhin maximized their abilities in the early and mid-term, they were completely useless in the later stages.
If big bugs develop, there is a question as to whether EDG can deal with the big bugs.
"come on."
Before leaving, Nofe patted Yezi on the shoulder and felt like he was about to cry.
"Don't be so stressed. We have two points now. It doesn't matter even if we lose one game."
Hearing this, Nofe stumbled and almost fell to the stage.
Xiba! Co-author, you want me to retire.
He can guarantee that even if EDG really loses the game, the audience will not blame the players...but they will definitely blame him.
However, the lineup had already been selected, and Nofe had no choice but to shake hands with the opposite coach.
In fact, what nofe doesn't know is that the C9 coach is also panicking now.
The EDG lineup was beyond his control, and he seriously suspected that this was a secret weapon specially prepared by EDG for them.
In panic, the coaches of both teams left the field and the game entered the loading interface.
In the commentary box, before the game started, the commentators started chatting.
"Although it doesn't quite match the version, the EDG lineup is actually pretty good," Qihuan analyzed: "Both the upper and lower lanes have a big advantage in laning. In addition, C9's jungler is a male gun, which requires a lot of development. At the same time, his gank ability is extremely good.
limited.
The only problem is the later stage, which depends on how much advantage EDG can get in the early stage. If the advantage is large, it will be difficult for C9 to survive until the later stage."
"Yes." Su Xiaoyan: "EDG is relatively solid at first glance, with more control and front row. Except for C9, the other heroes are not that strong. The initiative lies with EDG."
Wang Duoduo: "Don't say much, the real results will be seen in the competition."
…
The camera turned and the eyes moved to Yates.
Yezi looked at the loading interface, but his mind was already immersed in the system.
[Stargazing skill activated]
[Eye of Insight skill activated]
[System tasks have been issued, please check the host]
…
A series of system prompts sounded, and Yezi first glanced at the values on both sides.
Sneaky's combat power is 80+, which is considered to be above average among professional players.
Yezi was not surprised. Except for the wild cards, most normal teams' AD comprehensive strength exceeded 80, and 90 was not uncommon.
But this kind of combat power is obviously not enough in front of him.
After reading the data, Yezi moved his eyes away from the data panel and turned to the task panel.
[Sniper target: Sneaky]
[System task (linkage): chain consumption
Chain consumption: Win the game, and in the settlement panel, the sum of the damage of the two people in the bottom lane will be calculated, and ten draws will be awarded for every 10,000 damage.
At the same time, every time the enemy is immobilized and unable to move, an additional draw will be awarded]
After reading the mission, Yezi couldn't help but take a breath.
He now finds that system tasks are becoming more and more fancy.
Not only the damage was calculated, but the control was also included in the calculation. What surprised him even more was that in this game, the data of the sister-in-law was also included in the system tasks.
In other words, how well he completes his mission is no longer under his control, it also depends on how well his teammates perform.
Thinking of this, Ye Zi had a bad feeling in his heart.
Although the system rewards are increasing, the tasks given by the system are becoming more and more complex. If this trend is followed, will there be tasks that he cannot complete in the future?
While thinking, the screen flashed with light, and ten team members from both sides appeared in their respective springs.
"Coming!"
Everyone's eyes lit up. After waiting for so long, the game finally started.
"Both sides seem to have no intention of playing a first-level team." Wang Duoduo: "Both sides lined up in a long snake formation. After setting up their defensive vision, they are waiting for the wild monsters to refresh."
At this moment, Su Xiaoyan suddenly said: "Look at Nall's position!"
"Um?"
Everyone's eyes turned.
I saw that Gnar had appeared in the blue zone of C9, giving the blue zone a ward position.
But at the same time, the big bug happened to see Nar.
"Encountered it?"
During the game, the top laners on both sides were stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised.
Boomerang!
After reacting, Gnar hit the big insect with a boomerang and pulled it backwards.
However, the big insect stamped its feet violently, and a group of ground thorns appeared in front of Nar.
Predict Q!
At this time, Gnar is going forward to take the ground stab, so he can only go around from the side.
"The big bug wants to stay, but the snake girl has already rushed over." Wang Duoduo spoke quickly: "The male spear prince is also rushing up the road. What does Nall say? Can you leave?"
"I can't keep Gnar, but if I can't, Gnar can cross-dodge..." Hallucination: "C9 feels a little rushed."
As predicted by the hallucination, although the snake girl could move first, the two of them had no hard control, and there was nothing Nanar could do.
After Gnar returned to a safe position, he returned to the city to resupply and then returned to the road.
After a wave of confrontation, nothing happened, but it delayed the jungle farming rhythm of both junglers.
"I'll open F6, help me hit it."
The prince chose F6 to start nearby, and after Galio hit a QA to help with a wave of AOE, he went online directly.
At this time, the snake girl did not notice anything unusual. Instead, after seeing Galio, she took a sip of the corruption potion and prepared to forcibly use the E skill to exchange blood.
"What a fierce snake girl!" Wang Duoduo said, "Just cross the line and attack Galio."
Hallucination: "No problem, Snake Girl's Level 1 E and Corruption Potion exchange for blood has no solution. Most heroes can't replace Snake Girl, but...the prince is here."
At the end of the day, the hallucinations felt a bit funny, and the snake girl's attack seemed a bit like throwing herself into a trap.
On the screen, after the prince reached level two, he directly chose to gank the middle lane without any hesitation.
EQ two in a row!
The moment he saw the prince appear, a strong sense of crisis arose in Jensen's heart.
