"You have to practice hard for this hero," Hongmi stood behind Jack in the training room of the VG base in Tanxiang Mansion and warned carefully, "You will definitely shine in the future."
Hou Ye worked diligently to translate the head coach's words to the players.
Yu Wenbo didn't take it seriously, "I think the data of Kai'Sa in the Chinese and Korean servers are very average..."
"That's because the value is not high enough!" Hongmi rolled up the A4 paper with the information printed on it and hit Yu Wenbo on the head with a stick, "Just look at the crows. They said Swain was rubbish at first, but in the end version 8.5
Once updated, everything changes instantly!”
Mr. Hou was convinced.
Swain received a mediocre response in version 8.4 after the redesign, and the designer directly made major changes. The early cooldown of Q [Touch of Liberation] was reduced by 2 seconds; the radius of W [Imperial Vision] skill was increased by 60 yards, and the diameter was increased by 120 yards;
The radius of "Never Go Again" has also been increased by 30 yards, and the explosive burst damage of the ultimate move can also pass through hero units...
The simple and crude way to strengthen is to hard increase the value!
Thanks to this, after the arrival of version 8.5, Crow rushed all the way to the top of the gradient in the middle and upper two single lanes in qualifying!
It must be said that after the green jungle knife was deleted, the changes in the top lane environment slowly emerged. Nowadays, single-belt heroes are gradually declining. For example, Gnar's winning rate in the LPL single version is only 22%. Except for the teams selected by VG
Basically everyone loses.
Although the crow is weak as a single player, its strength in team play is extremely high. With the bonus of its own strengthening and environmental changes, it has become the strongest mid-to-upper swingman at present!
What does the dual-position T1 plus swingable attributes mean in the professional arena?
Select if not banned!
"Look at the strength of Crow now. With this mechanism, he can become the leader in the professional arena, let alone Kai'Sa!" Hongmi is very sure of his judgment, "Passive damage with percentage, Q single target burst is very high and
It can be used to clear the line, W can detect vision, E can become invisible after evolving, and the ultimate move with displacement and shield can be used for self-protection. Except for the lack of recovery ability, Kai'Sa is simply an all-round existence among ADCs!"
"As long as Riot slightly strengthens the hero's stats in the future, Kai'Sa will definitely rise, I'm telling you!" Hong Mi assured, patting her chest.
Jack thought about it carefully and felt that there was nothing wrong with it.
Since the end of the S7 World Championship, Riot seemed to think that the status of shooters was too high, and began to target ADCs one after another during the preseason in an attempt to weaken their influence in the canyon.
The ones that were weakened in version 8.4 were skateboard shoes. When patch 8.5 was just updated, it was the cannon's turn to be the swordsman.
The initial range of Poppy in cannon form has changed from 550 to 525. Although as the level increases, the final attack distance of the small cannon is not much different, but it is this 25-point basic attack range that makes Tristana disappear from the professional arena!
After all, what matters in the laning phase is that one inch is long and one inch is strong.
Professional players, in particular, are very sensitive to range. An attack range of 525 in the bottom lane is equivalent to being a mercenary!
With the decline of skateboard shoes and cannons one after another, bottom lane shooters have entered a relatively poor environment.
Whoever has not been weakened will be strengthened!
For example, after being dormant in the first half of the Spring Split, Xia came to the 8.4 version and re-emerged, and now she has become the strongest shooter in the version!
It is conceivable that with Kai'Sa's almighty attitude, if she can get certain numerical enhancements, she will definitely dominate the bottom lane ecosystem!
"It's okay, Kai'Sa is pretty simple," Yu Wenbo said with great enthusiasm, "You can get started by just playing two games."
"Really or not, so confident?" Mr. Hou raised his eyebrows.
"Of course! Doesn't this hero just have the skills?" Jack said angrily, "Is there anyone who can't practice Kai'Sa?"
After listening to Yu Wenbo's heroic words, Hongmi finally felt relieved.
Jack's hero pool has always been good, except for EZ, which is a bit bad at playing, and the proficiency of most shooters is fine.
Mr. Hou went to hand over the information in Hongmi's hands to his jungler.
Gu Xingzheng was sitting at the computer desk with headphones on. He was stunned for a moment after receiving the document handed over by Li Zhixun.
"Various data of other regional championship contenders." Easyhoon explained thoughtfully.
Gu Xing's head was full of black lines, "...I just opened the live broadcast room, brother!"
Li Zhixun is numb.
"The audience probably didn't see it, right?" He glanced at Gu Xing's monitor guiltily.
After checking the OBS push stream and confirming that the entire data was not exposed to the camera, Mr. Hou breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Wenhe, please remind me later!" Mr. Hou became angry with embarrassment.
Seeing that a live broadcast accident almost happened, Hongmi rushed to help, "It's just that last time Wenhe encountered such a thing, he didn't say a word, which made me..."
He hesitated and said no more.
But the training room was already filled with laughter.
Everyone knows the meaning of red rice.
"It's almost done," Gu Xing quickly turned around and warned his teammates, "The camera didn't capture the data just now, but my microphone is still on!"
The teammates kept silent and did not dare to laugh loudly anymore. However, when Gu Xing turned his head and looked at the live broadcast room, he saw that the rhythm of the barrage had already picked up.
[Did I hear that correctly? Mr. Hou just sent Brother Xing the data of other division champions? 】
[The case has been solved. Brother Xing is studying MSI’s opponents in advance and fulfilling Gui Jiao Qi’s trash talk promise back then! 】
[Can anyone who understands Korean translate what Hongmi was calling a hammer just now? 】
[I understand only a little bit of it, I can only say that I understand everything...Pick up your crotch and smell the red rice. GIF]
[The live broadcast leaked secrets, right? If you have something good, why don’t you share it with your brothers? 】
Gu Xing saw that the direction of the barrage was not quite right, so he quickly spoke up and started to set the pace himself.
"You're in the queue, bro. If you want to see the heroes of gods and demons in this game, you can put a word on the barrage and the anchor will consider it."
The chat channel was filled with hero names, mostly Kindred, Blind Monk and Sword Master.
Gu Xing selected Qian Jue based on his own preferences, pre-selecting the hero first to avoid being banned by his teammates.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Kuro had just returned from the bathroom after feeding food into the toilet. He took a look at his monitor and immediately showed a look of surprise on his face.
"We are on the same side!" Li Ruixing smiled instantly, "I was wondering how could anyone pre-select Qian Jue in this version? It turns out to be you!"
"It's hard to say, the jungler of our second team is also very good at Qian Jue." Gu Xing said with a smile.
Kuro couldn't stop muttering in a low voice when he heard this, "What level is he worthy of being called Qian Jue's unique brother? Can he help me win the game?"
Li Ruixing controlled the volume very well to ensure that netizens in Gu Xing's live broadcast room would not overhear.
Gu Xing didn't say anything else. Listening to the background music of the BP stage coming from his headphones, he suddenly had an idea and opened QQ Music to search.
"Let me tell you, the music Riot currently makes for the client is really not good," Gu Xing introduced to the audience enthusiastically, "The true god must be this!"
He shook the mouse and said, "Champion Select is the original old version of the BP stage BGM."
"I remember when I just reached level 30 and played ranked, the first time I entered the BP interface to choose a position and hero, I could hear this background music, and I felt so excited..."
Gu Xing started playing, and the majestic symphony immediately echoed in the live broadcast room, which made people's hearts beat.
He first picked heroes to play based on the opinions of netizens, and then recommended a BGM that had disappeared from the client for a long time, finally bringing the barrage rhythm to a complete stop.
[Rem, as soon as I heard BP music, my hands began to shake and I couldn’t get any feedback, and I was so nervous that I couldn’t help myself]
[At that time, I was very serious about ranking when I listened to this music. Now, if you don’t play for 5 minutes after entering, it will be considered a success!]
[When entering the ranked room, please press the words, ‘5L mid laner, if you don’t give it, I will give it to you’. Who knows? 】
When Gu Xing saw that the netizens on the barrage were nostalgic for the past and sad for the present, the corners of his mouth could not stop rising while he was proud, and he locked Qian Jue and entered the loading interface.
"Hey, the ID of the opponent's mid laner looks familiar...is it Chaowei?" Kuro's eyes widened.
"It's true!" Gu Xing has a good memory. Before Chaowei left a few days ago, he and the members of the VG team made each other Korean server friends, and now he can confirm each other's identity at a glance.
He is not afraid of getting angry when watching the excitement, "Two VG mid laners are facing off head-to-head. Rui Xing, I feel like you will have a hard time standing up in the lane!"
Li Ruixing was a bit weak at first - he had seen Chaowei's laning strength, which was obviously stronger than his own.
But when he heard Gu Xing's teasing, Kuro immediately aroused his competitive spirit. He raised his chest and raised his head unconvinced, "It would be too disrespectful to ignore you. I am a serious person, okay?"
"I must teach Chaowei a lesson today!" he vowed.
However, Chaowei is called a genius boy for a reason.
At the age of 15, he already scored a thousand points in the Korean server, and his talent in Rank is no less than that of Jack!
If we talk about the competition, the young Chaowei may not be able to do anything against Kuro.
But in the fast-paced and highly bloody qualifying matches, Chaowei is the god in the middle!
He repeatedly initiated blood exchange invitations, and was able to easily lower Kuro's blood volume and send him back to the spring water for recuperation and supplies through skill cooling and precision.
Later, Lai kept shaking the jungler in the middle to help himself put pressure on Li Ruixing.
With the combined strength of two people, they can easily kill Kuro with high burst damage!
When Li Ruixing was killed by the enemy midfielder again, he held his head in frustration and shouted, "It's not fair! A rematch, a rematch! What's the point of bullying a small number?"
"There's nothing I can do about it, Sister Li," Gu Xing expressed that he was helpless, "Help the good ones but not the bad ones. You're so suppressed in the lane, how can I help you?"
"Don't misunderstand me, Gu Xing. I never meant to blame you..." Kuro was afraid that Gu Xing would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, "I just blame the other party for cheating."
The audience in the live broadcast room laughed and laughed.
【You are so filial to my family, you deserve it Kuro!】
[If someone else said this, I would think he was being arrogant, but when it came out of Kuro's mouth, it seemed true.]
[But Chaowei’s basic laning skills are really strong. He replenished 240 dollars in 20 minutes. I don’t even know where he got the replenishment from.]
[It’s just that VG’s rhythm was too slow after going to Chaowei. Otherwise, would Kuro still have a place?]
[Don’t be embarrassed, Kuro’s dog-licking skills alone are enough to last a lifetime. What’s the use of being strong in the lane? You have to understand the world, little brother. Whether to change the mid laner or not is just a word from the line brother]
Kuro saw that his own data had reached 0/4, already half a step beyond the ghost state, and the opponent was rushing towards the big dragon pit, making it clear that he wanted to use Baron Nash to speed up and end the game, so he had to say something to save his respect.
"It's just an ordinary qualifying match. I can teach Chaowei a lesson next time..." he muttered.
"You can beat me six or seven times and it will be useless, but if you let me catch you once, you will suffer the same consequences!"
Before Li Ruixing finished expressing his idea that "it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge," he heard Gu Xing suddenly say, "I've snatched the big dragon!"
He had just used Dance of Arrows to jump into the big dragon pit, activated R [Sheep Spirit Breath] to forcibly save Baron Nash, and finally relied on E's fearful killing damage combined with punishment to grab the big dragon!
"Damn, you're so handsome!" Kuro's decibel level suddenly increased, and his whole body evolved from a frowning state to a beaming and radiant state, which can be called a face change at the speed of light, "You are simply my god!"
After Gu Xing snatched the dragon, he brushed off his clothes and hid his merit and fame. He relied on his refreshed Q skill and flash to run nearly a thousand yards in an instant and successfully escaped!
No one was killed and the dragon was robbed, and the situation was instantly reversed!
Kuro's waist doesn't hurt anymore, his legs don't hurt, he doesn't complain anymore, he enters serious mode and cooperates well with his teammates.
Being robbed of the baron is a very demoralizing thing in the professional arena, let alone the pub ranked game!
The opponent had seen that he was about to win, and his mentality became comfortable. As a result, the baron was robbed, and he had to tighten his nerves again to fight in the mid-to-late stage team battles. It was difficult to adapt in a short period of time.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Gu Xing leads his teammates all the way to pursue victory and eliminate all disadvantages!
In the later team battle, Qian Jue, who had already stacked 10 layers of marks, even blocked the gods and Buddhas and killed the Buddhas, which made netizens in the live broadcast room extremely excited to watch!
"I'll help you block your skills, so you can output with confidence!" Kuro suddenly turned the mid laner Yanque into a bodyguard, and stuck close to Gu Xing's side to protect his jungler from the wind and rain.
Thanks to Li Ruixing's protection, Gu Xing easily achieved four kills!
Only the super powerful snake girl ran very fast all the way, and she wanted to sneak back to her own spring to replenish her supplies and play another round of guarding Athena.
"There are fruits nearby, we can keep chasing them!" Kuro kept marking the exploding cones beside him.
After Gu Xing jumped over, he quickly detonated the cones with flat A to help Gu Xing move.
The two of them, together with their teammate Kled who was flanking him, successfully caught up with Chaowei and began to encircle and suppress him!
"Five kills, five kills!" Seeing Kled still dealing damage to Chaowei, Kuro immediately shouted, "Stop it, I'm sorry!"
Fortunately, his teammates were very sensible and knew that Gu Xing was the biggest contributor to the victory in this game. They did not think about grabbing the pentakill, and after beating Chaowei to the lowest level of health, they ran to push the enemy's defense tower.
"Take your time and show Chaowei an expression!" Kuro started to say cheerfully.
"Didn't you say 'it's just an ordinary qualifying match' before?" Gu Xing complained, "Now you've changed your story again?"
"That's natural," Kuro said, not ashamed but proud. "Standards should be flexible!"
He kept showing his thumbs up to give thumbs up, and just danced in front of the remaining blood Chaowei.
Chovy saw that the other party was not in a hurry to kill him, so he simply swung his snake tail on the spot and sent an Amumu crying emoticon.
The three of them stayed close to each other for a while, until Gu Xing saw that the five kills could hardly be continued, so he shot an arrow to take Chaowei's life away.
Then he even flattened the enemy's main crystal in one go!
"Wuhu!" Kuro raised his arms and shouted, "What do you think? I'll tell Chaowei that he must teach Chaowei a lesson today!"
Hongmi, who was attracted by Li Ruixing's passionate shout just now, showed a helpless smile.
Damn it, the almost super-supernatural Rock Bird can also give a face to the opponent's mid laner?
What's more, the output difference is a full two and a half times!
After watching this qualifying match, he became more confident in cultivating Chaowei, and planned to take some time to look at the Chovy video uploaded by the second team.
Gu Xing didn't know what the head coach was thinking. The qualifying match that had just shown great results had sent gifts flying all over the live broadcast room. The amount of gifts made him thirsty just saying thank you.
In the end, I just had to write "Gift? No" written on my face.
After finishing the broadcast, he used the proceeds from tonight's live broadcast to order Haidilao and treat all members of the training department to a late night snack. On the way, he was smelling the aroma of tomato pot and looking through the information handed over by the Marquis before to study MSI's opponents.
.
The main research objects are undoubtedly the next door LCK and the European competition.
North America and Wanwan are now in decline and have lost their former glory. The strong teams in them are the league's fantasy gods. Entering the international arena is to give warmth to VG.
No team will lose to North America in a BO5, right?
Therefore, the VG coaching staff did not pay much attention to these two competition regions when compiling the data, and the data was relatively simple.
The situation of the LCK league that we focus on is not very clear. KT is slightly better, but it is not necessarily possible to win Dragon Ball in BO5.
The same is true for the European region.
Their two top teams are G2 and the resurgent giant FNC.
The latter introduced the assistant Hailisang from the beloved unicorn UOL team, and together with the grown-up Caps, they formed a complete unit. Their level is almost as good as G2, which has dominated the league for 4 consecutive years!
The two are locked in an inseparable battle in the European competition, and it's unclear who can break through the encirclement and break into the mid-season tournament held in their home country.
Gu Xing focused on observing the hero pools and version tactics of these strong teams, and planned to use them for his own purposes and apply them to VG.
The last round of intra-group competition in the regular season was uneventful. VG, who had begun to recharge their batteries, only lost one game to IG.
Most of the rest of the games were speed-passed at 2:0, with one exception being a punctual finish. In the end, they tied for first place in the Eastern Conference with IG with a record of 17 wins and 2 losses, and won the top spot with an extremely weak 1-point advantage!
