Edgar was frozen in place, his mind spinning rapidly.
This time, the carefully prepared vision block version 0 was cracked by Gu Xing. The counterattack strategy given by the opponent was to go to the SSG jungle area to do eye work in advance while Samsung was on guard, so as to see the movements of leader An earlier.
Then he uses the usual tricks to deceive him and passes the level, by counter-crouching or doing the opposite gank to hit three stars unexpectedly!
I have to say, the effect is outstanding.
Edgar deeply admired Gu Xing for his ability to react perfectly on the spot.
Although he is not a professional player in the League of Legends, he cannot experience the horror of Gu Xing personally.
However, he has been engaged in competition training for a long time and has analyzed and judged the tactical styles of many professional players. Edgar was able to compare Gu Xing with others.
He was certain that he had never seen a player with such adaptability before!
Whether it is the acumen of tactics or the speed and accuracy of making adjustments on the spot, they are unique among professional players!
From Edgar's point of view, Gu Xing seemed to have experienced countless tactical attacks before he was able to think of countermeasures in a short period of time!
Why are you so skilled at Jiang Zi!
Edgar was confused at first when he saw Gu Xing's perfect response in the backstage lounge, but now he feels much calmer.
He had to accept the fact that the enemy had one of the world's top LOL professional players, and use his strengths and avoid weaknesses to restrict Gu Xing as much as possible.
From the current point of view, it is not realistic to use vision blocking tactics against Gu Xing in the early stage of the game.
It is also difficult to iterate the tactics again.
Because version 0 has already added prerequisites such as mid lane rights.
If you extend the deduction further, the prerequisites will only increase!
By that time, the field of view blocking tactic has lost its universal significance and has little practical effect.
Edgar simply gave up on blocking and controlling Gu Xing's whereabouts in the early stage.
He realized it.
In this censer version, the laning period is not as important as before!
After the bottom lane became the Earthbound Spirit, the top lane became a traditional orphan lane. In the early stage, the middle and jungle could only be relied on to set the pace.
The output capability of all members has decreased, and the tank has been appropriately improved. It is difficult to produce kills due to the ebb and flow of one another!
Let’s just talk about this game. It seems that the early game was very lively, but excluding the unstable factor of the first-level group, there were only three waves of actual fighting in the early game.
2v2 in the middle lane and jungle, 3v3 in the bottom lane and jungle, and Gu Xing used Kuro's explosive pack to launch an encirclement and suppression against the Crown.
Edgar believes that all three waves of battles can be avoided.
The first wave was when Leader An counter-crouched and was manipulated by Gu Xing. The second wave was purely because Samsung had murderous intentions and tried to launch an attack on the VG duo, but ended up falling into a trap carefully crafted by VG.
The third wave is simpler because of the chain reaction after the crown is lost.
Why is it missing?
Wasn’t this the first wave of mid-jungle battles?
Theoretically, as long as Leader An doesn't stop himself from killing, it will be difficult for VG to find opportunities to open up the situation through kills in the early stage!
As his thoughts expanded, Edgar suddenly felt enlightened.
"I see……"
Since the importance of the laning phase has decreased, wouldn’t it mean that I am invincible if I simply stay behind closed doors?!
At the BP level, lane rights are given up, and the initiative in the three lanes is left to VG!
Looking at all versions of LOL, this understanding of the lineup is extremely unparalleled.
In order to balance the situation during the laning phase, most coaches must at least select a lineup that carries laning power along the way.
Even Samsung, which is usually known for its iron turtle style of play, is like this.
Otherwise, you will not be able to compete for any neutral resources in the early stage, and the wild areas will be invaded.
But the incense burner version is a very special exception.
The supermodel equipment gives the late-stage shooter an unprecedented high status, allowing Edgar to boldly give up early-stage strength, be a little more extreme than usual, and completely give up lane rights!
He doesn't care about neutral resources at all.
Xiaolong, I’ll release all the Pioneers!
Losing this little neutral resource is better than simply asking for a VG fight and giving all the resources to the opponent in the end, right?
As for whether the wild area will be invaded...
Leader An is originally a herbivorous player with a strong ability to withstand pressure. Being invaded by Gu Xing is not a big deal and the losses will not be very serious.
What's more, this is a jungle environment for tank junglers!
No matter how strong Gu Xing is, how much profit can he get from playing the role of Prince of Wine and Pig Girl?
What can you do to me!
Is this really last year’s ultimate line power + jungle core version?
No one really thinks of a ‘version answer’ like Yin Zeruil as a treasure!
Edgar felt enlightened.
Just pick the late-game lineup without thinking. The whole team will switch to defense in the early stage. As long as the Ruler develops and takes shape, relying on Samsung's super teamfighting skills, it will not be difficult to win the game!
Of course, Edgar knew that the early and late stages were in place, but the mid-term issues had not yet been resolved.
How to withstand the mid-term changes of a top snowballing team like VG is the most important thing to win the game!
Edgar has studied nearly a hundred games of VG, large and small, and knows that the defending champion likes to use early lane power to connect the offense in the mid-term transition.
Because he has the lane rights in hand, he has the ability to push first and move first, and he also has the advantage of vision in the jungle.
As long as the three lanes + jungle are active, it is easy to create a numerical advantage through information differences and map running speed, and then take advantage of the enemy to return to defense to wear down the HP of the defense tower, or even directly flatten the turret!
It can be said that with a little carelessness, VG can quickly widen the economic gap between the two parties with a few waves of operations during the mid-term transfer!
Edgar does not dare to underestimate him and knows how powerful the defending champion is.
If just solving the problems in the front and later stages as he thought before, it would not be enough to defeat VG.
The mid-term is the key!
To resist VG's use of line rights advantages and convert them into mid-term economic gains, we must start with the two important elements of line switching attacks.
That is, there is a gap between charting ability and information.
Edgar can't stop the former. VG just wants to buy shoes and experience the feeling of flying. SSG can't stop him.
Then the information gap remains.
In League of Legends, the information gap is nothing more than the visual field content obtained through soldier lines or eye positions.
Forget about the military line. Since Samsung wants to choose a three-way wireless lineup, the visual field information it can grasp in this regard is definitely not as good as the enemy!
SSG has no choice but to reduce the information gap between itself and VG as much as possible. The only option left is to control the ward position!
Edgar thought along the logical chain, and suddenly thought of the vision blocking tactic that he had abandoned before.
"Dafa (??)!" He shouted loudly with his eyes shining, and he couldn't help but show excitement. He clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed it into his palm.
In the initial version of the Suning team, they relied on the coordination of wild assistants to arrange sufficient eye positions to detect Gu Xing's movements.
But at that time, it was still the melee protection auxiliary version of the summer game. The auxiliary gave priority to making eye stones, and combined with the jungler's eye position, it was enough to cover the enemy's jungle area.
When it comes to the global finals, the incense burner system requires the support to use the fiery incense burner first, and it will take at least 17 minutes to make the eye stone!
Therefore, when Edgar optimized the early vision blocking tactics, he emphasized the quality of the information eye.
When there are not many eye positions, you must make the best use of them to obtain as much visual field information as possible!
The disadvantage is that the number of eye positions is still too small, and the amount of information obtained cannot be compared with the summer version, and it is easy for Gu Xing to play tricks.
But what if this vision blocking tactic is not used in the early stage?
Edgar is as open-minded as Melody.
I can definitely wait until the mid-term to use it!
Even though the transition period has just begun, the current auxiliary economy is not enough to support the production of eye stones, and it seems that the field of vision is still not enough.
But Edgar thinks there are alternatives.
Real eyes!
In the early days when everyone was extremely short of money, the 75 gold coins required to buy a real eye at that time accounted for a too high proportion of the total economy. Few people were willing to spend huge sums of money to buy eye slots. They all first gathered equipment with combat attributes.
Let’s improve our own combat capabilities first.
However, after the mid-term, as the team's economic base continues to grow, purchasing real eyes becomes a harmless thing.
At this time, not only the jungler can take on the responsibility of controlling the ward position, but players in the other four positions can also participate!
Assuming that everyone has one real eye and five more eye positions that can provide vision, the information gap between the two teams will be quickly narrowed when the transition period comes!
By then, Samsung will be able to react to VG's ferocious line-changing offensive at the first time and react to the defense, adjust the formation in a timely manner, and strive to reduce losses!
"It's done!" Edgar shouted angrily.
The voice echoed in the empty backstage corridor, causing nearby staff to look back frequently.
"KR people are like this, they like to yell..." someone muttered.
Edgar didn't understand, and even if he understood, he didn't bother to respond.
He was immersed in the ecstasy welling up inside him.
At this point, Samsung gave up lane rights in the early stage to develop, used real eyes to control vision in the mid-term to reduce losses as much as possible, and in the later stage, relied on the strength of the lineup and the team battles with the players themselves to win the game. The strategy was officially formed!
Edgar is certain that this strategy will help Samsung reach the top in this World Championship!
Gu Xing looked at the nervous Samsung head coach, who looked a bit bewildered as he muttered to himself in front of the white wall.
He didn't have the heart to investigate the reason in detail, and the desire to quickly fight back and read the rating posts prompted his body to quickly slip back to the lounge.
When Hongmi saw him coming in, her face glowed brightly and she came up and patted Gu Xing's shoulder hard.
"Pu Gu, ah Gu, you are really amazing today!"
Yin Chengrong praised them by naming them while speaking not very fluent Mandarin.
Redmi really didn't expect that Gu Xing could react to the extreme on the spot, discovering the secret of Samsung's early vision battle on the spot and coming up with countermeasures.
Even though they have been cooperating with Gu Xing for a year and a half, Hongmi can still find new shining points from its own jungler.
It's like going to Heilan Home, there are new discoveries every time.
From Hongmi’s point of view, this adaptability is simply incredible!
Gu Xing chuckled lightly, with a slightly satisfied look on his face, "Don't worry, SSG doesn't think it can seal my whereabouts with those eyes, right?"
Kuro cheered from the side, "That's right, Samsung is really whimsical, they look down on sales too much!"
After saying that, he even defended him, "The judges are also very naive. How can they actually give the MVP to Jie Kuo in this game?"
Yu Wenbo, who was slumped on the sofa in Ge You's lying position, frowned and raised his eyebrows, "Li Ruixing, what do you mean, my brother is not worthy of this MVP, is he?!"
"Take a closer look. The average damage is 700, the output ratio is 35%, and you are so awesome without dying even once. Why can't you win the MVP?" Jack defended himself righteously.
He seemed to have predicted what Li Ruixing was going to say, and immediately followed up, "I know you are going to say that Lao Gu gave me three kills during the counter-crouching wave in the bottom lane. I also said that Lao Gu has little effect, so I can win the MVP."
It’s okay to give him 1/3 of the credit!”
Kuro curled his lips, obviously very dissatisfied with the MVP result given by the judges, and kept mumbling something.
Gu Xing is very free and easy, "Anyone can take the same amount of money... We have too many MVPs, so it would be good to spread them out!"
In the first two games of the first round of the group stage, he was the MVP after VG won. After Gu Xing won enough awards, he didn't care much about the small game MVP.
One of Song Jinghao and Duan Deliang was dragged to do an interview on the French channel, and the other went to Korean language. Maybe it was a long distance or there were too many interview questions, so they never came back.
Gu Xing seizes the time to browse and resist.
This powerful dialogue between LPL and LCK attracted millions of domestic viewers. After VG won, the popularity of Tieba reached a new high this season!
This is the charm of the local world championship.
Even though the MSI finals are far more valuable than the World Championship group stage, the home game was originally scheduled to be in Brazil, and the competition was held in the early morning hours in China.
When the vast majority of viewers woke up, they saw the news that VG won the championship. In fact, the number of people watching the live broadcast was not very large.
It can't be compared with today's focus showdown!
Gu Xing was dazzled as he scrolled through the posts, feeling extremely happy.
[Ho ho ho, now it’s really cool to see VG torture SSG with operations. Aren’t you an iron turtle? If you have the ability, don’t take the initiative to fight!]
[VG is indeed a top-notch team, and its ability to control its own strength is very strong. Facing a novice team, I won the thrilling victory. Facing a strong team, I punched hard and smashed it to pieces. I made adaptive adjustments according to the strength of the enemy.
】
[It’s broken! Yesterday, VG’s narrow victory over GAM was to help Riot increase the ratings in the Vietnam division. I saw that the highest number of simultaneous online viewers of Mouse Channel’s Vietnam channel exceeded 300,000. VG did a great job!]
[I have to say that Brother Xing’s prince is really ruthless, both in operation and anti-crouch awareness, he is much better than An Bixin]
[Isn’t Master An known as the Anti-Chinese Hero? Why does he start to show his filial piety as soon as he meets Brother Xing? Hehe]
[I went to check and found out that An Bixin has not won a single game in his career against Brother Xing, and his winning rate is as high as 0%! How about I confer you the title of Brother Xing’s eldest son in the future? Little Peanut is a bit better than you.
You are so rebellious, you have won at least 3 small rounds]
Gu Xing laughed heartily from time to time as he watched the maggot babies having fun.
When the two brothers came back, the VG team packed up their backpacks and ran back to the station.
In the training match in the evening, the opponent was Longzhu, whom Gu Xing had promised Little Peanut before.
But there were a lot of bystanders at the back.
Not only the VG coaching staff, but also the sparring team came.
Before VG finished its first round of group stage, LPL had been training internally.
To be fair, this approach has advantages and disadvantages.
It may block information about version iterations, causing other participating teams to lag behind in understanding the version.
But it may also have the opposite effect, and work behind closed doors and be complacent and trap your own version iterations.
Although VG is currently at the top of Group A, the groups did not communicate and compete with each other in the main game, and it cannot be said that they are better than the current Longzhu.
After all, who is not the first in the group?
Therefore, the members of the sparring team are very concerned about the outcome of this training match to verify whether their hard work in the past half month has paid off.
"Brother Donghe, let's choose Jace..." TheShy scratched his hair, which was as messy as a bird's nest, and stood behind Gu Xing like a follower.
Gu Xing was not surprised, "Jace has a very unique skill, and it is just right to choose him today. We just want to see if the carry top laner can play after the version iteration."
Training matches are naturally focused on practice.
VG has concluded from previous matches with IG that there is some room for Carry's top laner to play, but that is still just a theory.
No one has verified it in the game now - Longzhu chose EZ in order to take care of the little peanut, and top laner Khan also compromised and played two games of tank tanks, temporarily abandoning the soul of the top laner.
Today Longzhu wants Khan to try out the strength of his unique skills in the World Championship version, and VG also wants to test the feasibility of carrying the top laner in practice.
The two parties hit it off immediately!
Gu Xing looked at Smeb, "Maibo, please try the strength of the tank top laner first. Which hero is more suitable?"
Song Jinghao thought for a moment and then answered, "Be careful, it's really difficult for other tank tanks to beat Jayce."
It is almost impossible for pig-nosed heroes like Big Tree and Big Bug to meet the second battalion commander of Piltover, and they are destined to be walked like dogs.
Shen has strong control and good output ability among tank heroes. Coupled with the sword array's ability to resist basic attack damage, Shen is perfect for facing Jayce.
But after entering the game, VG saw something was wrong.
Even though Gu Xing used wine barrels and Smeb to target Khan twice in the early stage, both were killed.
But when it gets to the mid-term, problems arise.
After Jess entered the heyday of his two-piece set, Song Jinghao simply couldn't stand it!
If it's a novice Jace whose enhanced cannon accuracy and speed are average, Smeb won't be embarrassed.
But this is Khan!
It is no exaggeration to say that he is the most powerful Jayce player in the world!
Song Jinghao was so shocked by You Meng Hei's two-piece Jess that he was in agony.
He had two kills in his hand, but in the early laning phase, he was suppressed by Jess for a lot of last-hit shots. In the middle, he used his R skill to remotely support his teammates once.
The economic difference between the two parties' top orders is not big.
Moreover, Shen's strength curve is also slowly going downhill.
Now on the wing, Shen is no match for Jace!
"Song Gu, can you come and help me one more time?" Song Jinghao sent a signal for help.
Gu Xing concentrated on arranging the view on the upper river and refused Smeb's request, "No, it's useless for me to help you. We won't be able to do enough damage."
Shen + Keg, even if both of them hit with all their skills, it is impossible to kill Jace with the black cut!
In version 4, the formula of Black Cut has been changed, the health provided by the equipment has been increased from 300 to 400, and the corresponding attack power has been reduced by 10 points.
At that time, everyone thought that Jace was weakened. After all, what the second battalion commander wanted was ultimate output. Who wants health points?
Fist thought so too.
At that time, they wanted to weaken assassins and powerful heroes like Jayce who had a high demand for armor through equipment changes.
But now, the boomerang is back.
Gu Xing never expected that for the incense burner version of Jace, the black cut version would be a strengthening!
After the health value of the upgraded equipment increases, it is impossible for two tank heroes to kill Councilor Tallis alone!
By relying on the hammer-cannon dual-form to open/accelerate the door, and supplemented by Youmeng's movement speed increase effect, Jace can easily escape from the hands of the two tanks!
What's more, it's already 20 minutes later, and the top laners of both sides are leading the lane.
If Gu Xing goes to arrest Khan, the remaining four heroes on the front of Dragon Ball can rush to the big dragon pit to rush Baron Nash!
At that time, VG's situation will become very embarrassing.
Since the first training match was mainly about trial lineups, VG chose French nuclear aircraft for Kuro.
If Gu Xing goes to the bottom lane, VG's middle and lower three will all be crispy heroes!
Faced with the threat of Little Peanut's prince, the three of them might not even dare to enter the river. They are only worried about being killed by Peanut in a group forcibly!
In this case, the big dragon must be the one in the Dragon Ball's bag!
But if he doesn't deal with Khan, this guy's Jayce will always expand his economic advantage in the bottom lane. After pushing the lane and grinding the tower, he will invade the VG wild area and plunder the camp, and control the dragon along with it.
It's not like Gu Xing has never tried to start a team from the front, but Gloria's position is always very far back.
If the incense burner soft auxiliary cannot be turned on, the nanny can protect the safety of the team members!
In the current version of the environment, it would take at least seven or eight seconds to beat the opponent's front row before the enemy Censer Monster is killed.
This period of time is very generous, and Little Peanut can always escape by using EQ+ Flash!
Gu Xing was in a dilemma.
Both roads are dead ends!
"Stop it, there's no need to continue playing..." Gu Xing looked back at Hongmi, and when he saw the head coach nodding, he typed the word GG in everyone's chat channel, admitting defeat and asking the Dragon Ball players to exit the game, so as not to leave the game behind.
The record was discovered by someone who was interested.
TheShy grinned with big teeth, "How about it? Isn't the carry top laner particularly strong?"
He proposed this idea after the training match against VG, and now seeing it verified, it feels like he has received some proof, and he is as happy as a child.
Not like a professional player, but a player who simply pursues the joy of gaming.
"Quie," Gu Xing agreed with Jiang Chenglu's view. He also supported the use of carry as a top laner at the beginning. Now seeing that the practice and theory are almost the same, he looked at his own top laner, "Maibo, what do you think?"
Song Jinghao has never seen Di Renjie and cannot understand the plot.
Changchang took a deep breath and replied seriously, "What Gu Gu said before about Carry's top laner having room to play is true, but the reason is not just what he said."
Hongmi is all ears.
As a former professional player, he has been away from the competition for several years, so it makes sense that his sensitivity to game knowledge is not as good as that of top players like Song Jinghao.
"The changes in the top lane environment mentioned by Sales Gu are from the two perspectives of the weakening role of the mid laner's magic core and the early output point," Song Jinghao continued to express his views, "I think the overall rhythm of the current version is the right one.
Carry is more friendly to the top laner.”
"It doesn't matter that the junglers in this version are all tank tanks with the ability to start a team, but when it comes to strong attack, the effect is not very good." He looked at the head coach, "Xianglu soft support is not a vegetarian."
Hongmi nodded.
Soft assistant's protective ability is really terrifying.
A shield is placed on the front row, and the amount of shield originally only has 300 or 400, but it is applied to the huge body of the tank hero with hundreds of points of double resistance, which is enough to withstand nearly a thousand points of output!
Frontline heroes can sometimes escape the enemy's pursuit just by relying on their tankiness!
“It’s difficult to start a team head-on, but it’s good news for split-pushing,” Smeb said. “Everyone knows this.”
Strong opening defeats split pushing, this is the eternal truth of LOL.
If you can't start a group from the front, other people's sideline advantage points can always lead alone!
"Another reason is Dolan Shield." Song Jinghao turned his attention to the top laners of TheShy, 957 and Jin Gong's training team. "You all remember that this equipment was weakened in the summer split, right?"
957 responded quickly, "You mean the price has gone up?"
"Yes," Smeb elaborated, "the price of Doran Shield has changed from 400 to 450 gold coins, which means that if the tank hero goes out with Doran Shield, he can only buy one blood potion at the beginning."
“When tank heroes are fighting against each other, this change has little impact. One bottle of medicine is missing, which means there is no shortage of medicine... But when tank tanks face pressure from carry heroes in the laning phase, this bottle of blood medicine can be the most important thing.
It’s important!”
Gu Xing suddenly realized.
He was impressed by that change.
At that time, everyone thought it was a direct enhancement to the carry top laner, but after the subsequent patch was installed, it was discovered that the status of tank heroes was still too high, and it could not be shaken by a bottle of blood medicine.
But on the world stage, the popularity of the incense burner system and the changes and iterations of the game environment have allowed the carry top laner to return to the professional arena with the help of this wave of Dolan Shield changes!
"So to be honest, it's not appropriate to use the broad term carry top laner to describe the next strong role in the top lane environment," Song Jinghao said. "Strictly speaking, it should be called a shooter-type top laner."
"Gnar and Jayce, I think are the main theme of the top lane in the subsequent games."
Compared with the four sisters, these long-armed heroes are more suitable for laning consumption and can suppress the tanks of the Ischemia Bottle very well.
And you can also get the auxiliary censer buff!
Best of both worlds!
"Wonderful!" Hongmi slapped the notebook hard, showing an excited expression, "Isn't this good for us?"
