"What I bring to you today is the third game of the quarterfinals of the S7 Global Finals, IG versus SSG!"
“To be honest, it’s quite interesting that IG and SKT were promoted from the same group this year. SKT was defeated by two LPL teams, WE and RNG, in the first half. IG was defeated by SSG and LZ in the second half.
.It is still very difficult for both teams to fight their way out of their respective half zones to meet in the finals.”
In the commentary box, Colonel Guan and Remember were warming up.
Since WE lost SKT in five fierce games the day before yesterday, the enthusiasm of the LPL audience has been greatly dampened. Even though RNG defeated FNC 3-1 yesterday, it was not against an LCK team, and the audience's mood still failed to improve significantly.
.
Today, IG plays against SSG. It is another matchup between LPL and LCK. The one who represents LPL is IG, whom the audience trusts the most. Almost all LPL fans are betting on this game and hope that IG can win back for LPL.
face.
Of course, fans in the LCK are still pessimistic, saying that as long as it is BO5, it is impossible for the LPL to defeat the LCK!
"Okay, the players on both sides are ready! In the first game, IG came to their favorite red side!"
"In the first round, they chose to get rid of Galio, Pantheon, and Kalista!"
"As for Samsung, they got rid of Luo, Lucian, and Bomberman!"
"They released Qinggang Ying in unison, but Samsung has an advantage! Will they snatch Qinggang Ying?"
"No! Samsung snatched Syndra! Crown brother's Syndra is also very good. In addition, it can also block the bottom lane combination of IG's female gunner and Syndra. This wave is very good!"
"Although Qinggangying is one of the heroes that Le Sha and Ning Wang are good at, even if they don't have Qinggangying, they are still very strong with other heroes! As for IG, they lack the two heroes of Bomberman and Syndra.
With the road system, it will be difficult for them to achieve a third-line advantage. Samsung is very targeted!"
Looking at Samsung's first round of candidates, Colonel Guan couldn't help but praise them.
However, after hearing the praise from Colonel Guan, the audience couldn't help but burst into boos.
[As a senior colonel, you must remember your identity!]
[Give me IG and smash Samsung to pieces!]
If you want to say who likes Samsung the most among the LPL casters, it has to be Colonel Guan.
On the eve of today's game, as an LPL commentator, he publicly cheered for Samsung on Weibo, which attracted a lot of criticism from LPL fans.
Although the senior management officer later explained that it was because IG was too powerful and he was worried that Samsung would not be able to compete.
But this sentence is obviously not convincing.
When explaining, even if he tried his best to restrain himself, he unconsciously showed a hint of speaking for Samsung.
The partner next to him remembered that he also knew that he could not let the senior colonel continue talking. As time went by, his inner preferences might be revealed.
He quickly grabbed the conversation: "Samsung didn't choose Qinggang Shadow, and IG won it directly! The first floor locked Qinggang Shadow in seconds! However, on the second floor, they chose Mouse! Chi Di's Mouse is still very powerful, IG
This side also robbed the agency and robbed Chi Di of an AD hero choice."
"Chichi Emperor's rat was robbed, but he still has a unique skill, Verus! Apart from rats, Verus and Ice are his best heroes. He has no problem with this Verus! Let's go to the third floor again
Choose Lulu, yes! This way you won’t suffer any losses in the bottom lane!”
Colonel Guan is indeed Samsung’s number one fan. He knows every player’s hero pool and preferences very well, and he almost directly guessed Samsung’s choices for the second and third floors.
"IG locked Clockwork on the third floor! Well, Clockwork is a hero that although his laning suppression power is not very strong, he is more stable and is one of the best heroes for broilers. He does not suffer against Syndra!
If I were Samsung, I would probably target the first hand in the second round, and IG would choose to grab the good one first.”
"In this way, the Qinggangying who grabs it can still retain the possibility of swinging in the wild!"
Watching Senior Colonel Guan praise Samsung, I remember that I could only praise IG to compete.
"In the second round of placements, Samsung chose to get rid of two AD top laners, VN and Xiao Pao, who were likely to qualify. However, the pressure on Zao Shai was huge. All four AD top laners were sent to the placements!"
"And IG chose to block the crocodile and weapons in the second round! Then Qinggangying should be the top laner. When laning, the weapons and crocodiles will make Qinggangying very uncomfortable. It just happens that Samsung's top laner
cuvee is also very good at these two heroes!"
"And on the fourth floor, IG locked the prince, who must be the jungler! Therefore, IG once again left the counter position to the support!"
Looking at the second round of seats and the selection on the fourth floor of IG, I remember a smile on my face.
The audience immediately laughed.
[Okay, auxiliary counter position, what is the lineup? 】
[Imperial Treasure’s counter position can always give us something different!]
[Do you think it’s possible that it’s Xerath’s assistant? Last time, Chen Yu’s Xerath’s assistant made the director miserable. This time, An’s jungler style is very similar to that of the director. Maybe he can be used as well.
What about lesson one?]
[Don’t tell me, it’s really possible!]
Every time Chen Yu gets the Kang special position, he will use a special hero to win unexpectedly.
However, these heroes are amazing, but they all have fatal flaws more or less.
For example, Xerath has no ability to protect himself and is very afraid of being targeted by the opponent's jungler.
It can only be selected when it is confirmed that the opponent's lineup does not pose a huge threat to the back row.
Otherwise it's just a cash machine.
Seeing that IG gave the counter position to the support, fans couldn't help but have some reveries.
Not only that, Colonel Guan in the commentary box also had a strange look on his face, and said worriedly: "Well, Chen Yu's assistant can always come up with something unexpected, which Samsung has to guard against! But now there is no room for it.
To stop it, we can only choose a lineup that can pose a threat to Xerath and other back rows as much as possible!"
"On the fourth floor, the jungle pig girl is selected! One of the best jungle heroes under the leadership of An, he can start a team from a long distance, and the front row tanks are all stable!"
"Then the top laner, Jace! This choice is not bad, you can form a double poke with Verus!"
"Now that Qinggangying is confirmed to be the top laner, we won't suffer any loss if we choose Jess on the road. After all, it is the ceiling for top laners! Samsung's lineup is indeed stable!"
Colonel Guan is very satisfied with Samsung's lineup. In his opinion, this is the system that Samsung is best at!
In almost every lane, the heroes who are best at it are brought out.
However, it is IG’s final choice that determines which side of BP has the upper hand.
Often IG's selection of counter heroes can play a finishing touch, which makes the audience look forward to it very much.
"Shen! IG chose Shen on the fifth floor!"
When the fifth floor of IG was locked, everyone was stunned for a moment.
"Why would IG take Shen? It's actually not the first time that Shen, the assistant, has appeared in the competition, but this thing doesn't seem to be suitable for this version! Now that the incense burner is so strong, it would be a pity not to choose a soft assistant. Moreover, Shen's damage is not very good.
It’s high, the auxiliary position isn’t particularly powerful, and the ability to force open is relatively average. Why? You can’t play with the incense burner set, right?”
The senior colonel was a little confused and said he couldn't understand why IG chose Shen.
Although Shen and Mouse can form a combo, it is a combo between top laner Shen and AD Mouse, which results in an unexpected partial attack of more than the opponent.
If Shen was a support, it wouldn't be a matter of playing more and playing less, because support and AD always go hand in hand.
As for the protection of the ultimate move, for the mouse, it is not even as much as the E skill of Lulu coming out of the incense burner.
Someone on the side who had full confidence in IG was unsure, but he could only bite the bullet and said: "Maybe IG is testing a new tactical system. Maybe their lineup will work well in training matches?"
In this regard, Guan Dajun said: "The training matches are training matches, and the official matches are official matches. Over the years, so many teams that were invincible in the training matches were eliminated in the group stage, let alone the BO5 after several days of homework.
!”
[Believe in IG! Come on IG and rush for me!]
[Assist Shen, just assist Shen. Our Chen Yu's kidney thief is so powerful that it cannot be compared to ordinary people!]
[Come on, come on, even if it’s a regular lineup, our IG’s hard power can beat you!]
The audience cheered for IG crazily.
Even though Shen who was chosen by the fifth floor was a bit unclear, they still chose to believe in IG!
Of course, they can only choose to trust IG, because now among the LPL teams, apart from RNG, which has already advanced, IG is the only one left.
.....
At the same time, there was no worry on the faces of everyone at the IG competition table.
The BP for this game was completely created by Chen Yu, and it is a very rare lineup for IG that looks relatively normal.
Although Samsung's bot lane is beaten by RNG's bot lane, its strength is still very strong. It is the first bot lane in the LCK and Samsung's absolute core Kai Rui point.
And the difference between King Chi and Uzi is that he doesn't need to consume too many resources and can have a good sound in team battles.
This frees up the jungler An Zhangmen, who does not need to be tied to the bottom lane, ensuring the development of the bottom lane, and can free up his hands to put pressure on the middle and top lanes.
Although IG's top jungler prides itself on being better than Samsung's top mid laner, it is also afraid of being targeted by the jungler.
If IG wants to win the game online just by relying on a child like Uzi, it is obviously not safe.
Therefore, other roads must also be protected, especially the upper roads where people are most likely to be caught.
But as soon as Samsung snatched Syndra, the laning was extremely strong, and the laning pressure in the middle of the broiler was not small. No matter what hero you played, it was difficult to free up your hands to travel other lanes.
In addition, Broiler's card Ryze and other support heroes are not particularly good at playing.
Therefore, Chen Yu chose Shen, the auxiliary with the strongest support ability, to supplement this point.
As long as he reaches level six, even if he is in the bottom lane, he can also provide protection for the top laners and even the broilers in the middle lane.
