"Congratulations to VG!" Miller said in high spirits, "Winning the first game of the intercontinental competition gave LPL a good start!"
"They showed a very exciting competitive level. Even with a mid- to late-stage development lineup, they were still able to compete with KT in the early stage!"
Due to the significant difference in the strength of the two sides' lineups over time, he saw early that VG would win this game, so he made a plan in advance. Now he is talking eloquently:
"Brother Xing made great contributions to the team during the laning period. He launched two offensives around the top half to contain the development of Kiin Lucian; in the mid-term, Chaowei took over the game, destroying the world with a sword demon. In the team battle
Killing all around..."
When Miller talked about Rise, he couldn't help but be filled with emotion, "There is a saying that the hero Yi Jian Demon is really outrageous. If two E levels are saved and used in a team battle, the output space of the enemy's back row will be severely limited.
, we have seen more than once that Deft is tightly restricted by its super power, and cannot do much damage in team battles. If you just use a few basic attacks, you may be killed by the sword demon!"
"The most exaggerated thing is the fault tolerance rate. When it was first reworked, everyone said that Sword Demon was like a big Riven. But when you actually go to the competition field, you can see his unique superiority!"
Wawa also praised this, "Sword Demon's survivability is simply unparalleled. The existence of the blood pool of R [Destruction] allows him to enter the field unscrupulously in team battles. Even if he wears a whole set of output equipment, he will be in vain - like
The super power of this game, the first thing is to do Youmeng to increase the damage, and the burst output of the first set of skills with electrocution is quite impressive. After death, the resurrection effect is triggered, and the teammates can be dragged to help, and the second round of skills has also been
Things are getting better, and the combat effectiveness is not reduced at all!"
He finally understood why VG wanted to snatch the Sword Demon first.
Pure BUG level hero!
Little Riven?
Would that sewer character be compared to the noble Aatrox?
Thinking about his doubts about VG's selection of Sword Demon during the draft before the game, Miller couldn't help but blush.
But then he made a very firm judgment.
"I have a hunch that the Sword Demon will be the winner of this intercontinental competition! Whoever can use it skillfully will have the upper hand and get an advantage in terms of BP!"
On the stage, Chaowei, who had just won the victory, raised his fists high and his face was filled with joy.
After he took off his sound-isolating headphones, the noisy sounds from the outside world were no longer blocked and rushed into his ears.
Because he had turned up the sound of his headphones too high earlier, Chaowei still felt a slight distortion when he heard the audience's cheers.
But this did not prevent Chovy from feeling the encouragement and support of the more than 10,000 spectators present from the deafening cheers.
Thinking of this, Zheng Zhixun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"Blue Cat, you Sword Demon Bird has two skills," Gu Xingzhan praised with a smile, "There are so many details in the group fight."
He saw clearly in the game, and Chaowei showed extremely delicate skills in the use of the sword demon.
Although Gu Xing doesn't play Sword Demon, he has never eaten pork during this period and has seen pigs running. From ranking to training matches, he often sees others using it.
He knew that this hero didn't have any special combos, and in most cases he had to use skills according to the situation.
The most core of them are Q [Darkborn Blade] and E [Shadow Rush]. Both of them can be cast in multiple stages in a short period of time. How to use them will definitely test the operator's proficiency.
It does not mean that if the Q skill hits, it will be considered successful. Otherwise, if you blindly use two E to close the distance, you will always hit the opponent with the sword blade.
Instead, you need to judge the enemy's control and escape skills, pull and pursue them as appropriate, and allocate three Q and two E to the appropriate positions.
To put it simply, players who have a strong sense of team fights will basically not be bad at playing Sword Demon.
Aatrox's own powerful area-of-effect damage control and resurrection mechanism will only make this group of people's teamfight performance even more powerful!
Although Chaowei's teamfighting ability is not the best in the world, he can still be regarded as a first-class player. The performance of the Sword Demon in this game is amazing, making KT's C position feel like it is stuck in the throat and extremely uncomfortable!
Hearing the jungler's praise, Chovy's smile was particularly bright.
Gu Xing simply praised him, but the effect was much better than the enthusiastic cheers of tens of thousands of spectators!
"Where is it?" Chaowei began to praise the opponent using the Chinese idioms he just learned two days ago, "Brother Xing, you are more important. The vanguard team takes the most credit and is definitely the main contributor to winning the game!"
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the Rift Herald team battle was the turning point of this game.
Prior to this, the two sides had gone back and forth. Although VG had a slight advantage, it was not enough to establish a victory.
Since the 10-minute winning team battle ended, the balance of victory between the two teams has completely tilted!
Don't worry, Gu Xing didn't gain any kills in the vanguard group, nor did he cause exaggerated damage.
But Chaowei could see clearly that Gu Xing was the key to opening up the situation for VG!
On the other side of the stage, Matagawa's scalp felt numb in the KT players' seat. He stretched out his hand to scratch it a few times and let out a helpless sigh.
He was also thinking about Vanguard team fights.
Like Chovy, Big Quail has also recognized the root cause of KT's failure.
Right on the barrel.
What did Gu Xing do in that wave of vanguard team battles?
First, he accelerated forward with Karma's E-shield, and used the drunken and violent damage reduction attribute to block the damage of Lucian's ultimate move. At the same time, he forced the KT team members to retreat upwards, blocking VG's outstanding performance that could have been flanked from both sides, leaving VG with no way to escape.
Give up your position.
At the same time, he also uses his forward position to create a good space for his teammates in the back row to control the vanguard.
Up to this point, KT's formation in the upper river was already in trouble.
VG can completely rely on Gu Xing's physical cover to control the vanguard and then move to the blue zone to retreat to the river!
Seeing that the enemy was about to retreat, Matagawa made the most regrettable decision of the game.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Take control and kill the wine barrel first.
As a result, the control skills of the bottom duo of Morgana Verus were increased, but the forced displacement of Gu Xing's R [Explosive Cask] exploded the entire team's formation, causing the team's output to fail to keep up immediately.
Even Pioneer was acquired by VG!
Seeing that Beer Man was reduced to low health, Matachuan was reluctant to let him go. After all, the sunk cost had been paid, so he had to bite the bullet and order his teammates to continue to use skills on Gu Xing.
However, Karma's second E turned well, supplemented by the blessing of R [Mantra], which not only protected the wine barrel, but also allowed the VG team to accelerate forward and start the team!
At that time, KT was in a vacuum of control skills. Facing the 3C entry of VG Sword Demon Vampire Kai'Sa, KT didn't even have the ability to fight back, and could only let Aatrox slash at his own formation!
The more the big quail thought about it, the more annoyed he became.
It can be said that Gu Xing relied on his own efforts to reverse the offensive and defensive situation in the vanguard group and destroy the encirclement that KT had worked so hard to create by relying on his seemingly unreasonable lone front attack!
Even Mata, who usually specializes in interpreting games, was secretly frightened and felt a bit frustrated.
Gu Xing, do you have such a strong view of the overall situation?
Even if I return to my peak, I'm afraid I won't be much better than you!
Not to mention that in the eyes of the outside world, the most terrifying thing about Gu Xing is his development and early rhythm driving ability. Combined with his good operation, he can be said to be a hexagonal jungler!
Matagawa, who had a thorough understanding of the situation, could see through the truth of the team's defeat at a glance, but the double Cs around him did not have such a strong sense of the overall situation. Now that they had lost the game, they were confused and could not hide the disappointment in their brows.
After Mr. Dai took off his headphones, he always felt that he was experiencing auditory hallucinations, and he could clearly hear the unique and extremely oppressive sound effects when Aatrox started the Great Destruction, echoing in his ears all the time.
As long as the team battle starts in this round, he will be targeted by the Sword Demon.
If his teammates surrender their control skills, Aatrox will start to perform, and he will always be able to cut himself to death in the midst of thousands of troops in the most incredible way!
Everyone in Deft is numb, and now they may develop PTSD symptoms when they see Sword Demon.
Compared with Mr. Dai, whose eyes were straightened after being cut by the sword demon, Ucal's face was full of confusion.
Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
Three questions lingered in his mind, making him doubt his life.
Looking at the whole scene, Ucal stands out as invisible.
Except for a tower-crossing kill against Chaowei in the first 3 minutes in conjunction with the Wild Boar Girl, the rest of the time was spent on constant last-ditch kills.
In the Canyon Pioneer team battle, he followed the auxiliary's command and went to the middle to deal with the troops first, planning to wait until he turned back and then cut into the upper river channel, imitating the African second brother to attack the opponent from behind the VG formation.
However, he didn’t even know why the team fight suddenly started!
And the most important thing is that VG has been using acceleration to chase KT upwards, causing Ucal in the middle to keep following the enemy and eating car exhaust!
Dao Mei didn't have the pursuit skill, so after following for a long time, she finally found a chance to get to Jack, but in the next second Kai'Sa used R [Hunter Instinct] to fly to the back of the KT formation, thus staying away from Dao Mei!
Ucal couldn't even cut through VG's backline heroes. In the entire team battle, he didn't deal any damage at all!
Since then, Ucal has had absolutely no room to perform.
After VG grasped the absolute advantage, the team battle formation was very tight, not giving Ucal a chance to easily break in.
And as we all know, Dao Mei is just a mess of answers when playing in a group.
Even if this version of R [Vanguard Blade] can disarm the opponent, it will also test the player's timing of entering the field.
After all, the enemy's control skills can still be provided. As long as Dao Mei Q enters and is controlled, she is likely to be killed on the spot without a significant lead in equipment!
Ucal always wants to find the perfect entry angle every time he fights in a team, and goes around the battlefield to find a breakthrough, but unfortunately the VG formation defends too well, so he goes around and waits until the team battle is over before entering the battlefield!
In the end, I saw that my teammates were all killed in battle, so I had to leave alone and in anger.
Now Ucal doesn't dare to open the data panel to see post-match damage, for fear of damaging his confidence.
Compared with his teammates who are confused, lost, depressed and annoyed, Kiin's thoughts are much simpler.
A heart completely covered with guilt.
The team invested a lot of resources in the BP process, and did not hesitate to let KT become a chopper team lineup. It was clear that Lucian had great trust in him and believed that he could defeat Smeb in the laning period and obtain excess development.
Who Chengxiang not only failed to use his advantage to feed the team, but instead became a burden to the team!
After making a mistake at the beginning, Gu Xing took advantage of it. After being killed twice in a row, Lucian's development completely collapsed. The overly conservative equipment plan of the Demon Drinking Knife further reduced the already low damage!
In the team battle, the opponent doesn't care about him at all. As long as he kills Mr. Dai, VG will be declared a complete victory!
Every time Kiin saw Aatrox kill Deft with a single blow, he would be reminded of his warm-hearted gesture in the early stages of the game, and his heart would be full of guilt.
Looking at the VG members walking quickly from across the stage, Kiin pursed his lips tightly and stretched out his hand to shake hands with a straight face.
The two teams were not particularly familiar with each other. Only Smeb had a good relationship with these fellow Han countrymen. He took the initiative to hug Score and others, squinting his eyes and showing his signature warm smile, while mumbling something.
Gu Xing couldn't understand Korean, but when he saw Score's face getting more and more ugly, he couldn't help but feel a little curious and pushed Chaowei with his elbow.
"Blue Cat, do you understand what Maibo is saying?"
Chaowei pricked up his ears and coughed twice unnaturally. Then he looked at Gu Xing, whose eyes were full of curiosity, and repeated the meaning of Song Jinghao's words.
"Brother Jinghao said, 'Thank you Brother Dongbin for your generous donation to relieve my stress. Otherwise, I would have been suppressed until death as a vampire. You are really my good brother. If you are interested in developing in LPL later, I will definitely introduce you to you."
club'……"
Gu Xing was dumbfounded by Smeb's face-to-face behavior.
After the handshake ended, VG and his team rushed to the center of the stage and bowed to the audience on all sides.
During the process, Chaowei listened to the cheers and his smile never stopped, always on his lips.
"Blue Cat, didn't you say you were nervous?" Jack deliberately teased, "I see you are enjoying it now!"
Zheng Zhixun said embarrassedly.
He was nervous before the game because he was worried about what he would do if he didn't perform well under the spotlight.
Now that I have won the game, it is too late to be happy, so why is there any reason to be nervous?
Thinking of this, Chaowei seemed to be enlightened.
So if I keep winning and build up my confidence, wouldn’t it be possible to overcome the bad habit of being nervous on the spot?
Back when the players were gathering their peripherals, another staff member came forward to remind Gu Xing to prepare for the post-game interview on the main stage.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!" Chaowei was very discerning and quickly stepped forward to take the peripheral from Gu Xing's hand, adding another sentence.
"Brother, just go with peace of mind!"
Gu Xing's face changed.
It’s not fun to say this!
Chaowei felt uneasy when he saw his jungler using the speed of light face change.
Did I say something wrong somewhere?
Jack on the side was laughing so loudly that his fair, steamed bun face almost turned into red dates.
Gu Xing knew that Chaowei didn't mean it, and he didn't bother to argue with him. He waved his hand and sent his teammates into the backstage passage. He stayed at the exit and watched TV to relieve his fatigue.
The post-match damage panel is playing on the screen.
Gu Xing took a closer look and his eyes widened suddenly.
The super powerful Sword Demon dealt the highest damage in the game, which was probably several hundred points higher than Jack's, taking the top spot in output from the damage king.
But what surprised Gu Xing was not Chovy's output ability, but Ucal's counterpart to the blue cat!
In nearly 30 minutes of performance, Sword Girl’s damage was only 4.3K!
It’s simply outrageous!
Against the background of the super power with the highest damage in the game, Ucal's output histogram is only a short section, which looks extremely pitiful!
When Gu Xing saw this, he couldn't wait to go back and browse the Kangba. He wanted to read how the baby maggot judged this knife girl.
He waited for a long time at the exit of the passage, and finally the host Ren Dong arrived. The two exchanged general questions and hurriedly went on stage to start the interview.
"Today's post-game interview session, we invited Virtue, the jungler of the VG team..." Immortal Grip made the opening remarks as usual, guiding Gu Xing to introduce himself first.
When more than 10,000 spectators in the stands around saw Gu Xing's figure, they all gave loud and loud cheers to show their support for this e-sports star!
"The first question is still a cliché. I represented the LPL division for the first time and got a good start. Can you tell me your thoughts?" Ren Dong asked a slightly clichéd question.
"I'm very excited, because you can feel the enthusiasm of the audience from the moment you enter the venue. It feels even hotter than the hot summer outside," Gu Xing answered with a smile while holding the microphone, "It's exactly what everyone has given us.
The huge cheers from all over the place allowed us to successfully win the first game, and I hope that VG’s performance today will live up to your expectations.”
As soon as these words came out, the shouts in the Dalian Sports Center rose again, with the potential to lift the dome and soar into the sky!
It was the first time for most of them to watch a VG game live - they had never been to the Northeast region in previous events hosted in the mainland, and this was the first time for them to participate in the intercontinental competition.
VG's wonderful performance in the first game made the audience feel that the trip was worthwhile!
"We noticed that KT made changes in the BP phase of this game and got an extremely strong lineup in the top half. I believe that many viewers here were sweating for VG," Ren Dong said in a high-spirited voice
Powerful, "But in the end VG didn't seem to be affected much. Relying on your excellent early rhythm drive and the final word in the Rift Pioneer team battle, Brother Xing, successfully killed the game... Then the game is over, Brother Xing, what do you think of KT?
What about the strategy for changing formations?”
"It's quite innovative," Gu Xing gave a fair evaluation. "Lucian hasn't appeared in the solo line for a long time. At first, we thought this hero was used to help Deft take the bottom lane. We didn't expect that KT could actually make a swing. This
Queshi is an inspiration for our future BP strategy. Maybe we can be flexible in the future and imitate today's KT..."
He changed the topic, "However, it turns out that Lucian's single-player effect is indeed very average. If I restrict it a little, it will be difficult for him to be effective in team battles."
The audience in the stands burst into laughter.
Lucian, who was holding back the magic knife against the wind, really left a very deep impression on them.
Ren Dong barely managed to hold back his nerves and asked the next question while suppressing a smile.
"Tomorrow's game, VG will face the No. 1 seed Flash Wolves from the LMS division. This is also Brother Xing's old rival. What do you want to say about this?"
Gu Xing did not hesitate and answered with a smile on his face, "I saw everyone's reaction during the opening ceremony today, and I can probably understand the meaning... Then I will definitely work hard tomorrow to satisfy everyone's wishes.
.”
Hearing this, the already noisy stands on all sides immediately became excited!
They wished that VG would strike harder and teach Wanwan a lesson. Gu Xing’s interview answer clearly had this intention!
What a coincidence!
Ren Dong tried his best to put on a serious expression, but his slightly upturned voice revealed his inner emotions, "The last question is also very routine. I want to ask you about your goal for this intercontinental competition."
"Of course it's the championship," Gu Xing said in a matter-of-fact tone. "Last year our four teams brought back the Intercontinental Championship trophy, so naturally we didn't think about returning it... This trophy must stay in the LPL division. I
I believe that the players from the other three teams participating in this continental competition have the same idea.”
Although the answer is very formulaic, it does not prevent the audience from feeling excited.
After all, in this industry, there are always some players who don't take the usual path and are not even willing to talk about the content of such a formulaic interview to appease people.
Ren Dong looked excited and his voice became high-spirited, "Then I wish the LPL division will continue to work hard with the good omen of victory and successfully defend the intercontinental championship!"
Amid roaring applause from more than 10,000 spectators, Gu Xing returned the microphone and strode backstage.
On the way, I happened to meet the RNG team that was about to play in the second game. Shi Senming even smiled and praised him, "Brother Xing, you are really good at this wine barrel. You have both brains and operation. It's amazing!"
"Work harder," Gu Xing encouraged his good brother with a smile, "try to come back first in the group stage together, so that we can study our opponents in the final while waiting for work!"
The format of the Intercontinental Tournament has not changed from last year. The three divisions will determine the top spot in the group stage with total points and send them to the finals. The other two teams will fight in the semi-finals BO5.
Guaranteeing the finals not only means saving energy by playing one less BO5, but also gives the coaching staff an opportunity to analyze and judge, which is a huge advantage.
"No problem, we'll take care of it!" Xiangguo assured, patting his chest, "Isn't playing Dragon Ball just like a joke?"
"...I don't know what your coach said before the game, but I think focusing more on the bottom lane may have miraculous results," Gu Xing said from experience, "Last year we played a lot of Dragon Ball, and Xuan Ming and Xuan Ming are now
I can’t stand high-intensity competition.”
"It's done!" Liu Shiyu felt relieved, "Brother Dayong told us the same thing during the meeting. Anyway, just help the puppy and that's it!"
It’s okay not to help. With Uzi’s character, what should I do if something happens to her?
"That's good," Gu Xing praised without hesitation, "Just help Uzi without any brains. He will win with his three-piece suit!"
Uzi held his head high and his posture was very proud.
The explosive state in the second half of the spring game has not dissipated. Jian proudly dares to guarantee that as long as he does not show off the red temperature, he will definitely be able to carry the whole team if he comes out with a three-piece set!
Seeing the entire RNG team walking briskly along the passage to the stage, Gu Xing bid farewell to his colleagues before returning to the lounge.
Not surprisingly, members of RW and EDG who were waiting in the room for today's game also came forward to praise Gu Xing's stable performance on the court.
After dealing with the two teams, Gu Xing found time to turn on his mobile phone to surf.
The first post pinned to the top of the anti-bar is the scoring post for the opening game of the Intercontinental Tournament.
Gu Xing clicked in like a hungry wolf, ready to enjoy a gluttonous feast.
Sorted according to the number of replies, the top one is the scoring building where Gu Xing's makeup photos are hung.
[Many! Jungle player Cheng Xingge’s state is almost like a master. I never expected that you would have no line rights in the middle and top lanes, and in the end you would be able to find a breakthrough from the top half, awesome!]
[Hurry and save this video to your favorites. If you encounter a jungler who complains that his teammates can’t do anything without lane rights, show him the link to this game!]
[Brother Xing, are you too stable? The Pioneer Group physically seduced me and started a group, which made everyone look stupid. It’s really awesome. Is there such a way to solve problems? 】
[What’s the most outrageous thing? Brother Xing, the only front row member of the team, didn’t die even once. His meow Jack and Kai’Sa, who had a perfect output environment, could burp twice. How did Brother Xing fight in this team fight?
I look at the post-match data and the injury ratio is not low at all]
[Brother Xing has always been good at protecting KDA. Unlike Gui Jiao Qi, he really doesn’t betray his teammates. He will fight until he reaches the lowest level of blood and then run away with his life, Bobo’s ultimate escape]
[I suggest that after Brother Xing retires, he should open a course on how to maintain KDA. I feel that the audience is very wide. At least people like Jack and TheShy will come to learn from it... Of course, I am just suggesting]
After Gu Xing saw the netizens praising him, he just wanted to say that he felt comfortable.
Sliding his finger downwards, what comes into view is Chaowei with his tiger fangs bared.
[Is this how you play Sword Demon? Ah (sounds like Aatrox)?]
[I really don’t give Mr. Dai face. Bobo beat him violently while wearing the pilot. He opened the blood pool and had to stab Deft before he died. How much do you hate him? 】
[Your kid didn’t know the name of the candidate for the first competition against South Korea. Blue Cat, your uncle, just wait. I’ll have good juice for you in the future. I’ll give you a hard 80 when I return to LCK and let you eat leftovers. In the future, you will go to the 38th line to serve in the military.
】
[This sword demon Chaowei makes my hands itch unbearably. I quickly start a ranked game and try out the combos I learned secretly...]
[Okay, okay, I guess Sword Demon will replace Yasuo and become the new orphan tonight in the national server match tonight]
I have to say that the debut of the new version of Sword Demon controlled by Chaowei is really amazing, especially the operation of Q3E in the Rift Pioneer team battle to kill Mr. Dai with a flash of sword, which may even be included in the highlights.
The one who came under the most severe artillery fire was Kiin.
[Classic self-destruction of Lucian, I am so fucking scared that I have never won this hero when he was chosen to play solo! 】
[Kiin’s Lucian’s proficiency is far different from that of his junior brother last year. Scout still has the nerve to say that his operation is fine, but the hero’s own mechanism has been severely damaged and there is really no way to win. Kiin has no operation at all.
Play it and understand it!】
[If you ask me, maybe it’s better than Insec! You can ask the holy monk later to ask Lucian how he should play. Anyway, they are all from KT. If you don’t look up and look down, it’s hard to refuse you...]
[I didn’t expect Datifeng to come up with the Demon Drinking Knife. Who are you planning on gua sha? Do you want to replace Ai Xi’s title of gua sha master? 】
[To tell you a joke, Lucian's three QWE skills are connected with basic attacks. In team battles, the Sword Demon's HP was reduced by 1/3, and his powerful sword almost pierced Lucian's aorta... Kiin, are you doing this? 】
[It’s okay, this is our good friend of the LPL. If you can’t survive in the LCK later, come to China and I will give you a bite to eat!]
