118: The big one is coming!

Seeing the opponent's base's main crystal shattering, Gu Xing took off his headphones.

The sound in the venue reached my ears without any hindrance.

The cheers and applause of VG supporters overshadowed the dull tapping of the cheering sticks, making the smile on Gu Xing's face brighter.

"In the first game, VG showed a strong team strength," the commentary I remember was delivered to every corner of the performing arts center through the live sound, "Virtue and Hou Ye were in charge of the early and middle stages of the game respectively!"

Wawa echoed from the side, "WE is a little confused when playing with high numbers in the middle and jungle. Kandi is at a disadvantage in this head-on confrontation in the jungle. He must adjust his condition well!"

He felt that he had spoken tactfully enough.

During the entire laning period of a game, the other eight players on both sides did not take care of the jungle.

It was purely a duel between Gu Xing and Kandi.

As a result, WE was completely defeated in the laning phase, even the doll could see it. The problem obviously lies with Condi!

When Kandi heard this, he was full of confidence and wanted revenge before the game. Now he was ashamed and his face was burning.

He quickly picked up the paper cup and hurried backstage, not wanting to stay in the audience's sight for even a second.

I remember talking endlessly on the commentary stage, giving advice from the perspective of the weak team WE.

"I think WE will have to change their BP strategy in the next game. They have to learn a lesson and not let the two junglers duel in the jungle. They should use their teammates' linkage capabilities to contain Virtue's rapid offensive as much as possible..."

His understanding of doll games is mediocre, but when it comes to chatting and chatting, he is the only LPL commentator.

Seeing that her partner opened the topic from WE's standpoint, Wawa naturally sided with VG.

"The problem is that we can't contain it!" He crossed his arms and began to praise Gu Xing, "Since Virtue became famous in the league, many teams have wanted to take action, but so far, none of them have succeeded!"

After Gu Xing settled into the starting lineup, he only lost to one team, OMG.

That was because Imp was in extremely bad shape at the time and made repeated mistakes in positioning, only to be defeated by the light of the planet.

Gu Xing himself did not expose any problems.

Other strong teams such as EDG have made many arrangements in BP and in the arena, but they still can't stop Gu Xing's outstanding performance!

The two commentators exchanged words with each other, once again heating up the already anxious atmosphere of watching the game.

The director gave the post-match data panel as usual, and then interrupted the chat between the two.

If the output data is mediocre, it will definitely not interfere with the conversation between the doll and the memory.

But the damage list in this game is simply full of highlights.

The reason is that the output of two people is too outrageous.

Easyhoon scored 22,080 points of damage in just 24 minutes and 43 seconds.

The average output is close to 1000!

In the last two waves of big group battles, he caused nearly 1.5W of damage, successfully raising his own data.

The other one is WE jungler Kandi.

The Reksai he operated only produced 1634 points of output in the whole game!

The scene was in an uproar!

As we all know, the heroes on the three lanes can deal decent damage due to the exchange of blood during the laning period.

In contrast, junglers spend a long time battling wild monsters, and to deal damage they can only challenge the opposite jungler. For online ganks or team battles, the output is basically much less than that of the C position!

But the truth is this.

But your damage of more than a thousand points is too low!

On the data panel, Mr. Hou raised his head to the sky, as if raising his middle finger.

Against his background, Kandi's output column looks extremely small!

There was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room.

[The average output is less than 100 points, Nicole is really a genius!]

[Kakao’s 888 damage can be considered excusable. The Scorpion he plays is just a tool for junglers to use ultimate moves to attract people. The output is definitely not high. You can only do less than 2000 points of damage by playing Reksai. The whole game is not the same.

Shopping means getting beaten!]

[Why do so many junglers break the lower limit in this summer split? Director, Avoidless, now there is another Kandi]

[Everyone knows, these junglers all produced low output when they met Xiao Gu]

[Virtue is really a good person, single-handedly helping the opposing jungler repeatedly create the lowest output record in his career! 】

The audience is still lamenting that Gu Xing did not act lightly, but the MVP player of this game has been announced.

Hou Ye won the MVP of this game with 36.6% damage ratio and +4473 opponent economy lead!

It has to be said that LPL directors prefer data when selecting MVPs.

Gu Xing's contribution to the team during the laning phase of this game was outstanding. In the end, he still couldn't compete with Hou Ye who got five kills.

However, no one can deny his outstanding performance in the early stage.

Including opponents.

Class is respect for Gu Xing.

In the second game, WE, who is on the red side, bans the male gun and the Spider Queen who killed everyone in the previous game.

It’s clear that we want to target Gu Xing!

"Spiders are not particularly powerful in the current version, do they have to be banned?" Witnessing all this, Wawa immediately explained to WE, "It seems they are very afraid of Virtue's performance in the last game!"

I remember that the answer was just right, "Giving two ban positions to the jungler is the limit of what WE can do. They gave the remaining banned position to the vampire!"

In fact, if VG hadn't deliberately caused a stumbling block, WE didn't want to block the mid lane hero pool of Hou Ye.

Currently, there are only a few strong roles recognized within the LPL.

Shen in the top lane, Rek'Sai in the jungle, Vampire in the mid lane, and Ice and Braum in the bottom lane.

These five heroes are unique in their respective positions and are undoubtedly strong!

In the 3-ban era, it is difficult to ban them all - after all, it is impossible to devote all the scarce ban slots to these powerful heroes, and the team's BP will be severely limited.

This means that both sides will release some strong characters.

Who to release and how to release are the key issues studied by the coaching staff of each team.

As the summer season draws to a close and the 6.14 version has been used for two weeks, everyone's understanding of the version has finally risen to a certain level, and several consensuses have been reached based on this.

It's best not to give up the entire Freljord combo to your opponent.

The partnership of Han Bing and Braum can advance in the bottom lane, attack, retreat or defend. The strength is ridiculously high and can be adapted to any system!

The choice and priority of the other three powerful characters depend on the tactics, style and player hero pool of each team.

But overall, in terms of value evaluation, Vampire is about equal to Shen and slightly greater than Rek'Sai.

In this game, VG is on the blue side. Like the previous game, the three characters of Card, Rock Bird and Bard are sent to the ban position.

Nothing has changed!

It seems that Redmi did not change the BP because the team won the previous game.

But you must know that VG changed sides in this game!

WE head coach HooN figured it out and was so disgusted!

In the ban positions in front of both sides, none of the five characters with strong versions have been banned.

If WE does not impose restrictions in the last ban, then everyone will start dividing the cake.

The blue side VG grabs one first, and WE can choose two strong characters.

The remaining version heroes will all be taken away by VG in the second and third selections!

At the end of the carve-up, VG can get three versions of heroes, while WE can only choose two!

Of course they suffer!

HooN had no choice but to contribute the remaining ban slots to the vampires.

In this way, there are four strong heroes left, and the two sides are evenly divided.

fair enough.

"VG decided to grab the ice first..."

Ashe must be grabbed, otherwise the red side's WE can lock her and Braum in the first and second picks.

"WE gets Braum and Shen!"

Braum is here to dismantle the Freljord combination.

Shen Ze is a very proficient top laner role for 957, which also allows him to better participate in the battle.

In the last game, 957 developed quite well in the top lane, and the disadvantage against the trolls using Poppy was not particularly great.

But in the end the team was defeated.

And losing has nothing to do with 957!

He felt that he could not sit back and continue to lose.

Therefore, it is rare to take the initiative to make a request to HooN to give yourself a head start. With the quick support of R [Secret! Mercy Saves Souls], you can enhance your influence in the situation!

"It's VG's second and third choice turn. They get the Ice Girl that Marquis is proficient in, and they also choose Rek'Sai for Virtue!"

Wawa was very excited when she saw this, "Xiao Gu is going to do something!"

There were also rustling sounds of discussion coming from the audience seats below the stage.

Kandi's face didn't look very good.

Although Rek'Sai is currently the strongest character in the jungle, from a common sense point of view, there is no problem with Gu Xing's choice this time.

But Condi and other commentators, like the audience, will remember the tragic experience of the excavator in the last game when Rek'Sai appears again!

"WE continues to show off Syndra, Xiye wants to prove his strength as Syndra!"

In the last game, Xiye was so frustrated.

Being ganked by both junglers in turn, he did nothing throughout the game.

Coach HooN asked him to choose again in this game. Xiye felt that he had to give VG some color!

"My brother-in-law has targeted Verus," Wawa was not surprised, "This is indeed a very good choice!"

In the previous game against the Optimistic Team, Yu Wenbo had used the attack special effect flow Verus.

After him, some players also chose him, and his good winning rate allowed bottom lane Verus to return to the professional arena!

Verus's range advantage is there, and R [Corruption Chain] can provide control for the team. In the later stage, the equipment can build attack speed, and W [Blight Quiver], which relies on percentage damage, can create a huge amount of damage!

Although overall, the character priority is not as good as Jhin.

However, since WE's support has already chosen Braum, it is impossible for Jhin to choose it - it will not be easy to trigger Braum's passive [Concussive Slam], and the strength of the combination will inevitably decrease.

So my brother-in-law did the next best thing and got Verus.

"In this way, WE will leave the last counter position to jungler Kandi!"

Head coach HooN showed great trust in Kandi.

Although Condi got the powerful jungle role of Rek'Sai in the last game, he did not perform well.

However, HooN is still willing to give the team members another chance.

As the critical moment of the playoffs approaches, he doesn't want to dampen Condy's self-confidence.

"VG showed Thresh and Troll," I remember hesitating for a moment before saying, "If it is locked, compared with the lineup in the first game, only the midfield and jungle combinations have been changed!"

Wawa explained for VG, "It's quite normal. Since we won the last game, there is no need to make drastic changes to the lineup."

VG player seats.

Brother Long yawned and collapsed on the gaming chair.

"Taking the troll again, I almost vomited..."

He was quite depressed.

The three characters Shen, Troll and Poppy take turns to use.

Even if Brother Long knows that this is his job, he will inevitably feel bored.

Looking at the other four positions, how many heroes can be selected?

The top laner is just holding a few characters and playing with each other!

Brother Long can already predict his own script.

One road to the end!

"What should we do," Gu Xing joked, "the top laner in last year's World Championship was so popular that it overdrawn his future potential. Isn't it normal for things to change?"

Brother Long was dissatisfied and retorted, "Who said that Smeb didn't always choose the captain?"

This was his new discovery after a training match with ROX.

The opponent likes to choose carry-type characters very much.

Longgo, who is usually busy with training and rarely has free time to watch games in other divisions, went online to find the Tigers' game videos and looked up relevant data.

In more than 30 small games in this summer split, Smeb only used the top laner and three fantasy gods in two games.

They are all big trees.

In addition, most of them are trolls, captains and sword girls!

This made Brother Long very envious.

Gu Xing encouraged him, "Why don't you let Hongmi choose a Rambo for you?"

Rambo is a carry hero that Long Ge is very good at, and his proficiency is quite high.

Brother Long shook his head like a rattle, "Don't lie to me, Rambo is absolutely impossible to choose."

He remembers it clearly.

Ma Run, who was forced to choose Rambo last time, was killed by them!

Hongmi behind the players' bench was chattering to Jin Wenhyuk.

"Brother Long," his team leader patted his chair, "Hongmi suddenly remembered that during this period, you should practice Rambo more in the Korean server rankings."

"Ah?!" Brother Long didn't react.

What's the meaning?

"To prepare for the next games," Jin Wenhe answered his doubts, "Redmi has been studying its opponents in the playoffs recently."

"And the next version may change the road environment."

Nowadays, most units cannot control the situation. This is determined by the version.

However, not everyone follows this concept when playing games.

There are always teams that come up with new ideas to counter the top lane tanks.

Some of the LCK teams are the best.

They took the lead in proposing new ideas.

The Korean top laners, headed by Smeb and Ssumday, coerced the tactical system and played carry roles such as Sword Girl and Captain, allowing the team to tilt their resources towards themselves and use brute force to destroy the three phantom gods in the top lane!

The results of this move are extremely significant!

The two top laners ranked first and second on the all-position MVP list of the LCK Summer Split, which is enough to prove the strength of the two!

This is simply a reverse version of the top laner’s dominant performance!

The mainstream thinking in the LPL division is different from that in the LCK.

Everyone advocates following the version and letting the top laner play the front row tank.

First, in recent years, the LPL has regarded the top lane as a blue collar, mainly playing front-row roles. Before the S5 World Championship, the tank warrior was revised and redone, which had such a big impact on several representative teams. This was because the all-meat armor was popular in the LPL at that time.

Front row.

As soon as the version changed, the top laners were not good at tank warriors, and the team would not build a system around them.

This idea is deeply ingrained.

Even though the S5 World Championship encountered Waterloo, it still did not change the style of the LPL team!

Many teams were not untouched by the tragic loss in the global finals.

But I don’t have the ability to change!

Looking at the entire LPL, only Looper, who won the world championship with the team back then, can still use carry heroes.

In addition, there is no top laner in the entire league who can play the role of the absolute core of the team!

Since the retirement of PDD, Gogoing and others, domestic top laners have gradually withered away and are no longer the team's winning point to eat up a lot of economy.

Tong Wudi Koro1, who shined in the S5 mid-season, is not a typical carry top laner.

If you think about it, you will know that in EDG back then, how could the team tilt resources towards the top laner?

A short man who pulls out the general, the domestic top laners that LPL can offer are 957, Holy Spear Brother, Long Brother and AJ.

Some of them have not yet reached their peak, and some of them have reached their upper limit.

The three of them are currently dominating the league, but if you really want to put them in front of Smeb and Ssumday, they are still not enough!

The strength cannot reach the point of crushing the same level. In order to pursue the stability of performance, the team will naturally not reverse the version and give its top laner a tactical status like Smeb - if the performance fluctuates due to changes in tactics, no one wants to bear this responsibility.

.

After Hongmi ensured that VG advanced to the semi-finals as the first in the group, they began to study their opponents and version 6.15 in advance.

In order to create a game version environment that is as stable as possible, Riot Games’ version changes in the professional arena are slower than those in normal clients.

In this way, they can collect the ranking information compiled by the server and observe whether there are too unbalanced characters and gameplay.

Currently, the LPL is still using version 6.14. In fact, the 6.15 patch was launched on the Korean server yesterday.

If nothing else, this version will be used in the playoffs.

After studying the red rice in advance, I smelled something different.

The update of patch 6.15 will definitely subvert the current professional arena environment!

The big one is coming!

After hearing the reminder from his coach, Brother Long was immediately eager to try and became very motivated.

He was eager to win the game quickly and play a few games of Rambo when he returned to the base to enjoy himself!

"VG did not change their choice of top support in the end," remember to focus on WE's last hero selection box, "now it depends on what role Kandi will take!"

The director promptly switched the screen to the WE player seats.

Kandi turned to communicate with his teammates.

Even 957, who usually doesn't talk much, is communicating with him.

Finally, when the selection countdown was about to end, WE locked the hero!

"Leopard Girl?!" Baby was very surprised, "Interesting... Kandi wants to recreate the jungle matchup between VG and EDG?"

In the focus battle a few days ago, Gu Xing used Leopard Girl to counter Rek'Sai, and successfully achieved a single kill in the jungle!

Now that Condi has been chosen, it seems quite meaningful to the doll.

The audience was reminded by the doll and kept discussing on the barrage.

[Kandi still doesn’t give up, he has to prove that his incompetence in the last game was the excavator’s fault?]

[Virtue is going to suffer a lot this game, Reksai will be wildly kited by Leopard Girl]

[One thing to say, Xiao Gu should have no problem hitting Kandi...]

[No one really thinks that a Leopard Girl can defeat Virtue’s Rek’Sai, right?]

WE supporters were full of confidence in Kandi, and bursts of cheers and cheers broke out in the audience!

Players from both sides exchange their heroes and determine the lineup.

Blue side VG: Troll in the top lane, Rek'Sai in the jungle, Ice Girl in the mid lane, Ice + Thresh in the bottom lane.

Red team WE: Top laner Shen, jungler Leopard Girl, mid laner Syndra, bottom lane Verus + Braum.

"To be fair, both sides' lineups in this round have a certain amount of offensive pressure," I remember trying to analyze, "the two teams' late combat effectiveness is not strong!"

Both junglers Rek'Sai and Leopard Girl need to have sufficient economic advantages to be effective in the later stage.

As for Houye's Ice Girl and Xiye's Syndra, their later abilities are not as good as those of traditional mages such as Victor.

"This game between the two sides should be a showdown in the early and mid-term," Wawa said. "It depends on who can have the upper hand in the jungle!"

The canyon descends suddenly!

The wave of cheers from the audience suddenly increased eight degrees!

"We obviously have the idea of ​​​​invading. They left the high ground and followed their lower jungle area into the river, preparing to enter the lower half of VG!"

In terms of first-level team strength, WE is much stronger.

The five heroes have no crotch-stretching role, and there is also a first-level team-killing weapon like Braun. Their overall combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.

VG is less than ideal.

The strength of the first-level hero Reksai controlled by Gu Xing is too low, and there is no comparison with the opposite Leopard Girl!

Nidalee relies on her dual-form Q, plus the passive [Seeking], which can also increase her movement speed and pull her opponents away. Her first-level group ability is much higher than Rek'Sai's!

"VG gave up the lower half of the area and allowed WE to enter the wild area. Virtue can only go to the upper half of the opposite area and start with BUFF to replace resources!"

Gu Xing was not in a hurry.

In his opinion, this is a loss that must be borne by choosing Rek'Sai.

Starting from the stone beetle at the top of WE, Gu Xing handed over punishment and went down in sequence.

During this period, cut the screen to observe the alignment.

Everyone has quite a lot of control skills in this game, so there will definitely be a lot of battles in the early stages.

WE double C all carry purification - VG Ice Girl, Ice and Thresh all have controls such as stun that can be lifted. Using purification can save lives and increase operating space.

After all, neither Syndra nor Verus have any displacement skills. If they are controlled, they are likely to be stuck in place and unable to escape.

Bringing purification can indeed remove a bunch of controls.

But you can’t get rid of Rek’Sai’s knockback!

In other words, Gu Xing’s stage is huge!

"Jack, you don't need to learn E at level 2, just click Q to play in the laning..."

Gu Xing warned his teammates.

Due to WE's move to change the jungle area, Gu Xing already knew Kandi's position when he cleared the jungle in the first round.

There is no need for Jack to point out the Eagle Spirit Pathfinder.

After hearing Yu Wenbo's agreement, Gu Xing concentrated his energy in the canyon.

On the road, Brother Long uses Troll to defeat Shen.

957 knew that Gu Xing was in the upper half of the jungle in the first round, so there was no reason to push the line of soldiers out, and he would definitely control the handover position of the soldiers in front of his own tower.

Gu Xing wanted to help him get on the road, but the only way left was to cross the tower.

This is simply unrealistic!

Before the troll reaches level 6, it is impossible for Gu Xing to cause trouble for 957.

Once it is retained by taunting carefully, there is a high probability that it will be killed under the tower.

In this way, if Gu Xing wants to lead the rhythm during the first round of jungle farming, his only target is Xiye.

However, Xiye also knows his position and will not expose any flaws. When facing the line, his position is always close to the bottom.

Gu Xing scanned around and found no flaws in the other party.

He might as well finish killing the wild monsters first and then talk about it.

"Kandi upgraded to level three after eating VG's F4, and ran to the middle to cooperate with the gank..."

Xiye took advantage of Houye's pause when he was finishing his last blow, and controlled Syndra to cast QE twice, successfully stunning the opponent!

Condi found the right opportunity and threw Q [Javelin Throw] from a long distance!

By the time the 1.5-second stun effect on the weaklings retreated, the javelin had already arrived in front of the Marquis!

Easyhoon had no time to dodge and was hit squarely!

There was a muffled sound, and the ice girl's health bar dropped to half in an instant!

There was a low cry at the scene.

The long-distance javelin throwing triggered full damage. Although Leopard Girl's skill level and magic power are not high enough, the damage is enough to make people scared!

"WE's first wave of cooperation from the middle and jungle successfully reduced the Hou Ye's blood volume!"

Syndra and Leopard Girl collaborated for the first time in this game, showing great power!

Gu Xing did not come to the middle lane because the heroes selected by VG in the middle and jungle, Ice Girl and Rek'Sai, both need to face out to complete the control.

Facing the vigilant Syndra, it was not easy to succeed.

However, WE’s hero combination in the middle and jungle does not need to consider this at all.

Syndra can stun people from a distance, and Leopard Girl can just throw her javelin next to her. The cost of ganking is almost zero!

"Master Hou knocked down the medicine bottle and needs to maintain his blood volume. Hurry up and raise the blood bar!"

Gu Xing successfully returned to his home in Ueno District after eating the upper river crab.

He devoured the three wolves and the blue buff, and then chose to return to the city.

"Again, only 5 groups of camps were cleared in the first round?" Wawa couldn't understand Gu Xing's thoughts and could only guess based on his own understanding, "Does he want to recreate the early gank idea of ​​​​the game again?"

"It's probably useless," I remember frowning and shaking my head, "WE must be on guard!"

Gu Xing returned to the spring. The five groups of wild monsters, river crabs, and the system's automatic money-boosting economy were just enough for him to purchase a second-level jungle knife.

"Hey, isn't there a challenge punishment?" Remember to notice something strange in the equipment column, "Virtue chose another path!"

Deep cold punishment!

Attacking heroes will cause real damage and can reduce movement speed!

In this version where most of the players are using Red Punisher Reksai, Gu Xing’s outfit idea is unique!

"Did Xiao Gu do this to avoid being pulled by the Leopard Girl's kite?" I remember not being sure what Gu Xing was thinking.

"Virtue moved to the upper half of the area as soon as he left. He still wanted to kill the Demon Swamp Frogs and did not implement other plans..."

Seeing this, the doll frowned even more.

He felt that Gu Xing's route was strange and unscientific at all.

It looks like a doll randomly spawning monsters when playing jungle!

"Xiao Gu ate the Demon Swamp Frog, crossed the upper river, and left an ornamental eye in the F4 camp opposite."

The confused baby became increasingly curious about Gu Xing's movements and intentions.

He stared closely at Rek'Sai's movement path, trying to find out something from the clues.

Unfortunately, nothing was found!

The doll could only continue to look down with full of doubts.

In comparison, Kandi's jungle route is much more normal.

He finished the first round of six groups of camps and river crabs before returning to the city to resupply.

When making a green jungle knife, I also added a real eye.

When you go out, move to the stone beetle camp in the upper half of the area.

Kandi knows that the next spawning order of his own wild monsters will be reset from top to bottom.

He has already made the best route plan in his mind and plans to start rolling the snowball later!

Brush away the stone beetles that were just spawned, and Kandi continued to move downwards.

When I arrived near my sharpbill camp, I threw a javelin and hit the big bird right in the body!

And the ornaments Gu Xing had just arranged caught Kandi’s movements!

Cutting the screen and seeing the leopard girl fighting against the wild monster, Gu Xing couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

The plan is about to start!

Thanks to ‘LightSkin’ for the 5000 starting coin reward.
