Seeing the G2 base collapse into pieces, Captain Flowers in the English commentary booth felt like he was mourning.
"My God..." His eyes were straightened and he murmured to himself, "How could he be beaten like this?"
The second half of the entire game was completely VG's crushing show.
Although G2 relied on Perkz's Hunger Strike mid laner Ice Girl, they were able to organize manpower to build a defense line every time the enemy launched a battle, and never fell into a numerical disadvantage.
But I couldn’t bear it and the scene was still one-sided!
If G2 cannot win in one wave, they will lose in every subsequent wave of team battles!
The situation does not allow them to develop any more, so they can only fight with VG from beginning to end. It is reasonable for them to retreat steadily!
Captain Flowers has been commentating on LOL events for several years, but he has never seen such an outrageous snowball rolling speed!
How exaggerated is it exactly?
At the beginning of the 11-minute lane transfer period of the game, the economic gap between the two sides was only a little over 1,000 yuan.
However, after G2 played the failed 1-for-4 in the upper and jungle areas, the middle tower fell again, and the economic gap widened to 3K.
Two minutes later, they launched another unnecessary charge against Gu Xing. After the group fight, VG once again accumulated a gold coin gap of more than 2,000 yuan!
Calculated, it is equivalent to opening up the economic gap by 4K in less than 5 minutes!
All previous versions are unimaginable!
This kind of economic expansion speed used to require the blessing of the Baron BUFF, which could be accomplished by pushing lanes, demolishing towers, and invading the jungle.
But now there is no need to get Baron Nash at all. The economic gap can be quickly widened by mid-term battles alone, which means that the pace of the game will be greatly accelerated, and the number of battles will rise sharply!
The game will inevitably fall apart!
Doublelift even beamed, "I told you that VG can't lose, but you still don't believe it... What do you say now? VG holds three match points and is one step away from the final stage!"
His behavior of insulting European audiences immediately aroused strong dissatisfaction among EU netizens on Mouse Channel.
[Can Doublelift get out of here? He already knows how to badmouth Europe and support VG every day. How about you consider Virtue as your father?]
[But what they say is true. When VG fights G2, isn’t it just about chopping melons and vegetables and killing them casually? 】
[The EU dog was so anxious that he covered his mouth to prevent him from saying anything after being beaten up!]
[G2, hurry up and stand firm, try to let two chase three!]
[Strange, I remember that the gap between the two teams was not that big during the mid-season. How come they were beaten so hard only half a year later? 】
[Perkz is really in trouble. Seeing Kuro choose a tool man in the first game, I also wanted to play an ice girl, but in the end, I just imitated him! 】
Ah P returned to the team lounge with a clouded face, even more depressed than at the end of the previous game.
"Lissandra shouldn't have been chosen," he complained. "This hero will have too limited effect in mid-term teamfights against that lineup!"
Damage is basically provided by teammates. As long as others are slightly behind in development, it will be difficult to win in a head-on battle.
And being restrained to death by Gu Xing's Olaf, if he has a big move, Ice Girl can only transfer the control object, otherwise it will be equivalent to a useless effort!
Or to use a broader concept to describe it, tool man mid laners, including Ice Girl, tend to be too weak when facing heavy warriors. They cannot die even if they control them, and then rely on shield/recovery skills to start.
Kill all around!
When Perkz thought of this, he realized the deeper hidden logic behind VG's mid lane strategy of using wild core and tool man in the first game.
The two sides are playing against each other in the middle and jungle. It is difficult for the tool man's mid laner to exert force against the heavy warriors, but the jungle core can cope with it!
When heroes like Kindred are fighting against heavily armored warriors such as Olaf, they can get whatever they want and even piss on the opponent's head!
It's a luxury for the heavy-armed warriors to even attack the wild core!
In other words, VG’s tool-man mid lane gameplay must be equipped with a wild core, so that it can deal with heavy warriors!
G2, on the other hand, doesn’t even understand how to copy, and is still playing a warrior jungler and tool mid laner lineup.
The result is that it is easy to be restrained to death by the enemy's heavily armored warriors in the mid-term!
Perkz is horrified to think about it.
Could it be that VG predicted early on that they would not be able to play jungle core and could only change their lineup, so they used the tool man to bury a hole in the first game?
Youngbuck also frankly admitted his mistake, "I had no choice but to give you a roaming hero to get used to it first, but I didn't expect that VG actually had a hidden trick..."
He summarized and wanted to improve the team's understanding of lineup selection.
"In the next game, we will be a high-explosion mage warrior jungler or a mid-range warrior such as Sword Girl, such as Barrel, Rock Bird, and other AP junglers with good instant damage capabilities. In short, it is best to prevent the damage attributes of the midfielder from overlapping.
"
If all damage is physical damage or magic damage, the enemy hero can be restrained by shoe type alone.
Only AP AD can maximize the strength of the midfielder combination!
After losing two games in a row, Youngbuck finally learned enough lessons to recognize the facts.
"Everyone, please don't be burdened. We are on the blue side in the next game and can get a very good lineup. As long as you perform normally, it will not be difficult to win." He tried to cheer up the players.
But these words are too weak for the G2 players who have reached the edge of the cliff.
The enemy holds three match points. In the next three rounds, Team Snickers will have no room for error. If they lose a round, they will be eliminated and their World Championship journey will end!
Seeing the negative atmosphere in the team, Youngbuck quickly changed his strategy and started feeding chicken soup.
"Cheer up, okay? We just lost two games, and we haven't gone home yet!"
"Being able to reach the semi-finals this year has equaled the best result in the World Championship after the European S1 season. It is also a new breakthrough for G2. You have done a very good job... but we are still one step away from reaching the top!"
His voice is sonorous and powerful, "We need to evolve in a desperate situation and create our own unique style system in order to truly have the potential to win the championship!"
"And VG is the best target. As long as we can surpass them, the Summoner's Trophy is within easy reach!" Youngbuck said with a fanatical look on his face.
"Everyone agrees that VG is the strongest team in history. They have maintained a strong posture for nearly two years. However, we pushed each other to a desperate situation during the mid-season. We are VG's strongest enemy on the road to hegemony," he
Standing in the middle of the lounge, looking around at every player, "We were almost able to end VG's dynasty back then, and I believe everyone can do the same today!"
"Let go of your hands and feet and have a big fight!"
It has to be said that Youngbuck is very good at making chicken soup. For a moment, the G2 players were all excited, recalling the past and recalling their glorious past.
The previous two games were just ambushed by VG using the new version of the ship. It was a real fight with real swords and guns, and it was still unclear who would win!
Compared to the heated G2 lounge, the team atmosphere at VG is much calmer and quieter.
No one celebrated loudly, and his expression was calm.
The dynasty has continued to this day, and they have already developed a character that is not arrogant in victory. Unless they really win the three consecutive championships, they will not be too excited.
"Will you continue with Ruixing?" Hongmi asked Kuro for his opinion, "If you feel that your energy cannot keep up, just tell me."
He didn't do any subtext, he just reminded Li Ruixing of the truth.
During the mid-season, Kuro ran out of energy towards the end, which affected his competitive performance.
Moreover, Li Ruixing has not played many high-intensity games in the past six months, so Hongmi is inevitably a little worried.
"I can still withstand three games..." Kuro was a little worried when he said this, "but I think it will be a little difficult in the next game without using the card to deal with Akali."
The red side is inherently more difficult to BP, not to mention that Li Ruixing thinks he is no better than Perkz.
The first two games were able to help the team win, mainly because VG's strategy was well developed, setting up traps layer by layer in terms of BP, fooling G2 into confusion, and even making Perkz play the tool mid laner!
But Kuro feels that when G2 comes to a critical juncture, they will definitely wake up and learn lessons in time to adjust their strategies.
With rich professional experience, he knows that the other party will definitely fight to the death and bring trouble to himself!
"It's okay," Hongmi waved his hand, "You can just go up and fight. Anyway, we have three match points in hand, so there is room for error."
Gu Xing also comforted his mid laner, "Just don't take G2 to heart, they are all our losers, there's nothing to worry about!"
"Besides, what if you lose one round? You've already lost two rounds, why don't you just enjoy it?"
After hearing Ye Daddy's comfort, Kuro felt as if he had taken a reassurance, and he strode towards the stage with high spirits.
Just as Li Ruixing thought, the G2 members who had finished taking the chicken blood began to use all their strength to tear a piece of flesh from VG's body.
The Snickers team on the blue side adjusted their BP and finally got a decent lineup.
The mid laner, Enchantress, and the jungler, Xin Zhao, need to be explosive and have the ability to continue fighting.
Kuro continued to choose Syndra, but was defeated by Xin Zhao at level 2!
It can only be said that Jankos is good at catching people at the second level. He seems to have inherited Ming Kai's legacy and can always come up with some new tricks.
Li Ruixing was caught off guard by the opponent's speed change attack!
Syndra has E [The Weak Retreat] which can interrupt the Enchantress' Shadow Shadow Rush. From a theoretical perspective, she is a hero that is better at beating LeBlanc.
But in the end, we need to analyze the specific issues in detail. The ball girl who handed over first blood is a bit unsustainable in Kuro's hands.
Besides, Li Ruixing's Syndra's proficiency is average.
He is not very good at this kind of movable spellcasting character that relies on distance control. In terms of proficiency alone, it is better than the super power before the start of the World Championship. If the version matches, I dare to get it, but there is no guarantee of C.
Perkz's Enchantress is a signature skill. She knows how to deal with Syndra, so she uses edge harassment and jumps from the side shadows to apply a set of skills to Kuro before retreating.
With the explosive ability of Electrocute LeBlanc, if it can deal two full rounds of damage, the ball girl will not be able to bear it at all!
Kuro, who was put under pressure, had to give up some of his last hits in order to maintain stability. As a result, the number of last hits from both sides' mid laners was greatly reduced.
During this period, Gu Xing also wanted to help with the siege, but Jankos demonstrated his ability to gain wisdom from every loss. He learned from the experience of his own team's unsuccessful linkage during the laning period in the previous game, and understood the importance of mid-lane right to linkage. In this game,
Just hang in the middle.
Relying on the first blood economic lead obtained from the level 2 capture, coupled with the high intensity of Enchantress Xin Zhao, G2 was stunned to not fall behind in the face of VG's tacit understanding of the midfielder!
The assistant Beryl also started roaming after the mid lane rights were guaranteed. Through the linkage of the wild assistant, Gu Xing's living space in the jungle was squeezed, putting pressure on the VG core.
For a moment, G2's rhythm was extremely smooth, as if they were back at the peak of MSI!
In the Canyon Pioneer team battle that broke out at 10 minutes, G2 relied on Perkz's Enchantress to cut in and harass from the side, and set up the ignition to beat Duan Deliang and force him back to the city, which was equivalent to completing the attrition task in disguise.
VG was at a numerical disadvantage on the front, so after a moment of trial and error, they decided to let go of the vanguard to develop and then pick up the team.
The Snickers team got the Rift Herald and put it in the middle to hit one, putting Kuro's roaming pressure on Kuro and forcing the opponent to use rat traps. They had to choose between supporting the side jungle or guarding the middle tower!
Thanks to this, G2 caught VG's flaw in 13 minutes, took the initiative to invade the jungle, and relied on Beryl Thresh's precise hook to play 1 for 3, completely tearing open the gap in the enemy's defense line, and then forced a group to demolish the VG mid-tower.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Nice!" Captain Flowers activated the active skill Sichuan Opera Face Changing and jumped three feet high on the English commentary stage, "G2 finally found its former self!"
"Tremble VG, the King of Europe is back!" He shouted with his arms raised in a rather middle-of-the-road manner.
Although the number of G2 fans in the Gwangju Universiade venue is not large, their individual voices are no less than those of VG supporters, and the momentum they have created is quite large and lingers in the stadium!
The smooth transition of G2 during the laning phase this time directly affects the ownership of the rhythmic initiative in the laning phase.
The three of them acted like Siamese twins, wandering together in the canyon. As long as they saw a lone enemy hero, Enchantress's flexible pursuit methods coupled with Xin Zhao and Thresh's ability to retain people were enough to make the opponent come without any trouble.
Back!
The familiar snowball rhythm swept the audience again!
However, this time it was VG’s turn to lose ground, and the economic gap expanded rapidly.
Although Gu Xing tried his best to hinder the opponent's progress of pushing lanes and demolishing towers through line operations, but due to the version, although the operations were useful, the power they could exert was obviously not as good as in previous years.
VG was defeated not long after.
"One to two, G2 regained a victory!" Captain Flowers' voice raised an octave in excitement, "The next game will be VG's priority in selecting sides. If G2 can still win a tough battle, both sides will
Entering the decider, the one with the right to choose sides will be G2 from the EU division!"
He opened the champagne very hard and was directly loaned to the fifth game.
Moreover, his voice is so loud that even if his voice is not amplified and played to the local audience through live speakers, it can still be clearly heard by the VG members who have just taken off their headphones and are about to return to the backstage.
Kuro looked regretful, "My, my... I didn't handle the first and second levels well."
If there was no first blood attack by Jankos at the beginning, the strength of VG's midfielder in this game should be stronger than G2's due to their tacit understanding.
It's a pity that there is no if.
Kuro is deeply regretful.
When Gu Xing saw the guilty look on his face as he hurriedly apologized to his teammates, he immediately couldn't laugh or cry, "I told you before the game that winning or losing in this game was a waste of time. Don't act like it's a heinous crime."
"It's disgusting for you to say it, but it doesn't make me feel at ease." Kuro replied seriously.
When he returned to the lounge, he took the initiative to find Hongmi and said, "Let the blue cat play in the next game. I have to take a break to calm my mind."
At the end of the third game, Li Ruixing was still a little exhausted due to the constant high-pressure pressure from the opponent, and his brain reaction was a little slower.
Originally, his hand speed was slow and his on-the-spot reaction was insufficient, so he had to rely on his brain to analyze and predict in advance, calculate everything before operating, but now his brain is not enough, and Kuro was somewhat lost in the last two team battles of the game.
Although it had no impact on the outcome of the third game, Li Ruixing still noticed a temporary decline in his competitive state. Just losing the game gave the coaching staff an opportunity to make substitutions, so he simply offered to take a rest.
When Chaowei heard this, his eyes glowed green like a wolf seeing flesh.
He practiced off the court for a full week, just waiting for an opportunity to express himself!
Now it’s finally here!
Seeing Chaowei's eagerness to try, Hongmi realized after a short weighing that Chaowei, who is now full of energy, is much ahead of Kuro in terms of competitive status.
In fact, the best partner for VG's mid-jungle linkage is Gu Xing Chaowei.
Because after Chovy got over his military addiction, he was much better than the aging Kuro in terms of operation alone.
Although the super powerful blue cat has no brains, when you are around Gu Xing, you are not afraid that your mind is not clear enough, but that you have too many ideas.
Just be a puppet soldier and just follow Gu Xing's command and you're done!
Chovy, a new operator who has no independent ideas but is soft-spoken and obedient, fits in well with Gu Xing in this regard.
This trump card has never been used by Redmi, and it’s finally time to reveal it!
"Okay, the blue cat will play in the next game," he agreed readily and patted Kuro on the back, "You have a good rest and wait until the finals before using Galio vs. Akali. Your stage will be huge then."
"If we play G2, there's no need for you to reveal your past."
Li Ruixing nodded and sat down on the sofa.
The way Galio beats Akali can only be done by him. The super powerful Galio can only be described as relying on defense, which is far different from him.
only……
The goal he had envisioned before the semifinals would be delayed by another week.
Jack was very happy, "Hongmi, you are really good at it, how can you study your final opponent so quickly?"
"What's an idiom you have here that says..." Hongmi touched her head and recalled it under the reminder of the Marquis, "Be prepared for a rainy day! Isn't it right for me to prepare in advance?"
Chaowei took the warm baby from Jin Wenhe and shook it desperately, trying to relieve the tension in his heart.
"Relax," Gu Xing encouraged with a smile, "Just remember that the opponent's operations are not as good as yours, and that's it. Don't worry about the rest!"
Zheng Zhixun took two deep breaths and nodded solemnly in agreement.
One minute after the player replacement list was reported, all live event channels around the world received this message.
"Change to Chaowei?!" Wawa was stunned at first, and then beamed with joy, "It seems that VG is planning to go head-to-head with G2 at the operational level!"
"G2 must be feeling uncomfortable now!"
Putting aside the level of commentary, Wawa has a clear stance on foreign battles and always supports the teams in his own division. He can give you a lot of praise for any operation and operation.
Even substitutions are no exception.
"Chaowei's task after coming on the field is very simple," Miller said, getting rid of the distress caused by the defeat just now, "As long as the blue side can hold on to this game, it will be considered a success!"
After defeating blue with red once in advance, the BP initiative now comes to VG!
The ban selection phase is started, and Redmi first disables Beryl’s Minotaur.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Youngbuck tilted the focus of BP towards the upper half, blocking Akali, the strongest assassin in the version. After VG banned Thresh again,
Then send the sword girl to the ban position.
This is the first time G2 has taken on the Ban position of Dao Mei in this semi-final. After all, it was Kuro who played before. Everyone knows that he can't play Dao Mei. There is no possibility of swinging when he is selected, and the value of targeting is greatly reduced.
The third hand of Redmi is still not over, they continue to restrict Beryl, and even Luo is banned!
"Good boy, all three ban positions in the first round are for support..." Miller was dumbfounded, "VG is very afraid of G2's wild support linkage!"
Wawa answered the question at the right time, "G2 is also very good, and they disabled Jace again with their backhand. In total, all three ban positions are given to the swing hero!"
"It is worth mentioning that G2 did not ban Qian Jue in this game. It should be considered that after Chaowei comes on the field, he will no longer get tool heroes in the middle, and the probability of a pure jungle core will be reduced a lot..."
There is a lot of discussion in the VG player booth surrounding the first selection position.
"If you choose Sword Demon, you will be easily targeted," Song Jinghao asked, "There are also crabs as counter points out there!"
"But if you don't choose, the sword demon Syndra may appear on the opposite side," Gu Xing hit the nail on the head.
Hongmi added, "But the good news is that the Sword Demon can only go up, otherwise he will be caught by our crabs."
He doesn't plan to give Syndra to Super Power. All the teams agree that Super Power won't be able to use the hero Ball Girl, and they haven't been able to practice it, and they don't even plan to give her a Ban.
VG can wait until the critical moment and then let Chovy take out Syndra and give the opponent a hard job!
"Then Blue Cat, do you have a hero who can defeat Syndra?" Gu Xing asked with a friendly face, tilting his head.
Chaowei stopped shaking Nuan Baobao, thought for a moment and replied seriously.
"some……"
After hearing the answer from the opponent's mouth, Hongmi made a decision, "Let's choose the crab first. It's okay to put the Syndra Sword Demon on the other side."
Their guess was absolutely correct, G2 locked these two heroes without thinking.
After all, there are only so many strong heroes in the current version. BP has evolved to the semi-finals. Except for some special card tactics, you can basically guess the hero the opponent will choose.
"Save the bottom lane combination until the second round. Let's directly increase the strength of the midfielder!" Hongmi gave the death order.
According to the importance of each position he classified before the game, the bottom lane is undoubtedly a man-servant. Excluding certain specific combinations, it does not deserve to receive an excessively high BP priority. It will be slightly more accurate in the future.
"VG first selects the wine barrel jungler for Brother Xing. There is no problem. This version of the nuclear bomb barrel has sufficient output and has certain initiative control capabilities..." Wawa looked at the hero selection box on the BP panel and suddenly raised his voice, "
what?!"
"Superpower chose Yasuo!"
The appearance of the happy man immediately attracted thousands of spectators in the audience to cheer in unison!
The popularity of the hero himself is so high that other characters cannot match it!
Even the LPL live broadcast room was filled with joy!
[Okay, okay, let’s start getting ready as soon as we come up, right? 】
[Chaowei B has the coolest warrior hero pool. Do you really dare to take anything? 】
[Not bad, thank you Perkz for not choosing Galio the Ice Girl in this game, otherwise I would have felt that Chaowei would have played a crocodile mindless push, which would be disgusting]
[When I saw Brother Xing choose the wine barrel, I roughly guessed that Chaowei would play Feng Nan, and it was as expected!]
[Wow, who still remembers that Perkz liked to play Yasuo during MSI? It was really fun for him at that time. Today, Kuro is the substitute for Xiao Mengxin, who is going to use Yasuo to help Big Brother regain his place!]
Perkz smiled and shook his head in the players' box.
This was his first time playing against Chaowei on the main stage. He had always heard that this newcomer was a top-notch fighter who was good at manipulation, which made Ah P very nervous.
Today I want to see how strong you are!
At Youngbuck's request, Perkz selected jungler Xin Zhao to further enhance the overall strength of the top half for Jankos.
Miller, on the other hand, didn't take it seriously. He glowed brightly on the commentary table and continued to express his understanding of Yasuo.
"Chaowei wants to use Yasuo to counter Syndra. Although there will be some pressure in the early stage, after the transition to the mid-term, Feng Man can limit the explosion of Ball Girl, and as long as his teammates can control the knock-up, Yasuo will
You can even complete the kill!"
"It can be seen that Chaowei is very confident in his operating level!"
In the second round of BP, both sides had only a lane duo to choose from. Youngbuck banned Kai'Sa at the strong request of Gu Shengbin, and then blocked Xia, the versatile shooter.
VG also did not give up the idea of targeting supports, and banned Braum and Tahm in turn.
"The fourth pick of G2 is to take the auxiliary Titan first. It can be regarded as having the ability to proactively start a team, but I don't know how VG will choose among the few remaining bot lane heroes?" Watana held her chin in thought.
"Assist Shen He...Jin?" He raised his eyebrows, "VG's choice is interesting!"
"This is to maximize the attributes of the tool player, basically abandoning the strength of the lane, focusing on clearing the lane, and then wait until the mid-term lane transition stage to use it again!"
G2 thought about it and finally got a Lucian for Imp, which focuses on laning strength during the laning phase.
The lineups of both sides are confirmed.
Blue square VG: Top laner Crab, jungle laner Wine Barrel, mid laner Yasuo, bottom lane Jhin Shen.
Red side G2: top laner Sword Demon, jungler Xin Zhao, mid laner Syndra, bottom lane Lucian Titan.
“Remember, it doesn’t matter if we can’t win in the early stage,” Hongmi did not forget to remind the players before leaving, “but in the mid-term, we must use the duo’s two ultimate moves to set the pace. Don’t give the opponent any breathing space, just crush them to death!
"
"I understand..." Gu Xing agreed, turning his head to look for Chaowei again, "Blue Cat, don't be nervous, be more confident."
Chovy breathed a sigh of relief.
This is his first World Championship knockout tour.
Now the team is only one victory away from his hometown Incheon.
As long as they win, VG can go to Incheon Munhak Arena to participate in the final battle!
Chaowei's heart is surging.
He has not forgotten the promise he made secretly during the summer split.
You must return to your hometown in fine clothes and go to the finals stage to look good in front of the elders in your hometown!
Success or failure lies in this round!
Chaowei's chest rose and fell violently, and the heat provided by the baby in his palm warmed his whole body, making Zheng Zhixun feel that his whole body was full of strength.
"Go, go, go, you'll definitely win!" he moaned.
And Summoner's Rift has arrived!
"The opponent may invade at the beginning," Gu Xing made arrangements after weighing the lineups of both sides. "Be careful in the bottom lane. Don't worry about the river. Just retreat to the back."
When it comes to the strength of the first-level teams of both sides, G2 is undoubtedly far ahead.
Lucian Titan plus Syndra, I don’t know how much stronger it is than VG’s.
Gu Xing doesn't want to engage in battle, and he doesn't even want to do ward - G2 will definitely come to invade with a scan. If a single lane hero loses ward experience, it will affect the progress of the early mid-to-high second grab, thus affecting the line rights.
Fight for.
His layout can be said to be watertight.
Jankos took the scan and walked around the river, but he found no trace of a human figure or eye position!
Nothing was found!
Xiaoyang pursed his lips, and unwilling to accept it, he came up with another plan and planned to give VG some cruel medicine.
