On October 29, the Shanghai Center Gymnasium was filled with people.
After RNG lost to RNG 2-3 yesterday, the only local team left was IG, and their opponent today is the LCK's No. 1 seed - Team LZ!
In the eyes of many viewers, LZ may be the best team to beat IG!
Because they also have the most powerful mid and upper jungle in the LCK, they can compete with IG's mid and upper jungle.
At the same time, the veteran combination of Pray and Gorilla in the bottom lane has rich experience and will not suffer in the bottom lane under normal circumstances.
It can be said that it perfectly corresponds to IG's tactical system.
Before the game, many relevant people predicted that this game will most likely last five games. The two sides are close in strength and either side has the possibility of winning.
...
However, there were some unusual changes in the commentary box for this game.
With the commentator Changmao as the host, on the left and right are the famous IG players, PDD and Xiaoxiao!
Now there is only one IG team left to fight alone, and the official team very thoughtfully invited two retired IG stars to come and help out.
At the same time, the game understanding of former professional players can also bring a unique perspective in analysis.
"Okay, what I bring to you now is the second set of the S7 Global Finals semi-finals, IG versus the LZ team! As the two teams with the number one seeds in the LPL and LCK divisions, let us look forward to what they will bring
What an exciting showdown!”
With Changmao's announcement, both teams stepped onto the stage one after another and began to debug the machines.
The camera lens scanned the frontal close-ups of each player in an orderly manner, and each time, it aroused cheers from the audience!
And when the camera lens showed IG's upper unit at the edge of the competition seat, everyone's expressions changed slightly.
[How could it be Duke? Isn’t it a good idea to be in trouble? Why was the person suddenly changed? 】
[Duke hasn’t played for almost a season! Why was he brought up temporarily? Did there happen to be any problem? 】
[No, I’m still waiting to see Le Shai and the man brother face each other. What do you mean by switching to Duke! 】
The audience was a little confused.
Whether it is the regular season, the playoffs, or the current S-game, Le Shai has performed very well. Under the protection of his teammates, Kerry is extremely capable.
The most important thing is that his operation is very enjoyable to watch.
Moreover, IG has been winning. Almost everyone believes that IG will not make any further adjustments to its personnel. These are IG’s five strongest players.
But in the first game against Longzhu in the semi-finals, IG actually changed the starting top laner and replaced him with Duke, who had been away from the team for a long time!
"There are still some differences in the styles of Duke and Lao Sha. The lane is much more stable. Maybe IG's tactics in this game do not intend to focus on the top lane, so they chose to replace the top laner."
At the commentary table, Changmao also expressed his guess.
Teacher Park's eyes sparkled, and he analyzed seriously: "Ya'er! I feel like IG is well prepared for this substitution! I'm telling you, Long Zhu is a manly guy, I've watched him play, his
You know the hero pool is exactly the same as Rosai!"
"Dragon Ball's play style is also very similar to IG. The jungler is based around the top laner! If IG chooses to go up and down in this game, then the first half of the early game will be a big brawl, and the middle and jungle will have to help, and the tactics will become rigid.
You know it!"
"If I don't switch to Duke, the pressure on the line may not be that strong, but the tactics can obviously be adapted temporarily! I can C, and I can also withstand pressure!"
Listening to the analysis of his old teammates, Xiaoxiao also nodded: "Yes, the reason why this IG can reach this point is not only because their players are strong, but also because their tactics have changed a lot and they have many tricks.
, can always gain an advantage in BP. The teams we encountered before did not have players who could compete with Lao Sha, but today is different, the man can compete with Lao Sha."
"I guess Longzhu has been preparing a big move against Xia Sha. But today's game started, eh, I made a substitution on the road and let Duke handle the pressure. You man, you have nothing to do with your strength!"
Xiaoxiao's speech habit is a little bit weird. Although he can hit the point most of the time, his personal position is also on the side of IG without hesitation.
"Okay, BP is about to start!"
Seeing that Xiaoxiao and Teacher Park were getting more and more animated as they talked, Changmao quickly put the topic on track.
"In the first game, IG came to the red side! In the first round, they chose to kill Kalista, Galio, and Pantheon! Huh? Deal with Pantheon?"
"Isn't Pan Sen the AD top laner to liberate the rest of the team? This IG uses Duke, so there's no need for Pan Sen to do it! Or does Duke also have a long-range top laner?"
Looking at the first round of bookings on IG, Changmao's face changed slightly.
"This may be a smoke bomb. Duke hasn't played for a long time. No one knows if he has trained the AD top laner now. What if he is not weaker than Xia Sha? IG wants to make Pan Sen. Dragon Ball must also consider this.
question."
Xiaoxiao thought deeper and analyzed.
"Ya'er! The first round of Dragon Ball was so tough. Except for Qinggang Ying, not a single top lane hero was dealt with. The remaining two positions were used to target Bomberman in the bottom lane.
He Luo! Are they so confident in the man?"
Teacher Park on the side was also a little shocked when he saw the first round of reservations in Longzhu.
Then Longzhu's choice on the first floor made him open his mouth even more: "Oh, Lucian has locked him! So you don't treat me as a human being, Duke?"
"Then I won't be polite to you on the first and second floors of IG, Prince Syndraga! Just come face to face!"
"Show this Syndra for me, eh, just show it! Do you think I am the mid laner or the support?"
Looking at IG’s first and second floor choices, Teacher Park suddenly became excited again.
When the second and third floors of Longzhu were locked, the smile on his face became even bigger, and his eyes were filled with fat.
"Longzhu was afraid that IG would move Syndra to the bottom lane, so he just snatched the female gun away. It really belongs to you!"
Xiaoxiao also chuckled.
Judging from the current situation, Longzhu's BP seems to have fallen into IG's rhythm and is constantly making temporary adjustments. In order to prevent IG from getting the Syndraga female gun combination, they directly snatched the female gun from the second floor.
On the third floor, the Wild Boar Fighting Girl is locked.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for a temporarily adjusted lineup to be coordinated with a lineup prepared in advance, and the combat effectiveness can easily be compromised.
This is why Xiaoxiao and Teacher Park are happy.
Then the third floor of IG directly targeted the female police officer, which also sent a signal to go online.
"Policewoman on the third floor, it's not false at all to fight you in the lane against your female gunner! I want to help Haishen to brag about this. The policewoman in Haishen is definitely strong enough. C may not be able to C, but in the lane
There are no problems in terms of combos and suppression, and the combos and suppression are top-notch!"
Looking at the policewoman on the third floor, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but brag about her old partner.
In fact, there is no need for him to boast, the audience also knows the strength of the policewoman. Recently, children have used the policewoman more frequently, and they have achieved very good results.
Although the MVP was not awarded to him after the game, judging from the laning operation, there is absolutely no problem.
"In the second round, Longzhu chose to block Morgana and Enchantress! Morgana is the support that IG often uses to match the policewoman, and Enchantress was used against Samsung in the last round. Chen Yutemp
I originally planned to use the enchantress with the female police assistant, and the line also exerted strong suppression! Longzhu chose to show respect!"
"In the second round, IG is also targeting the support position! After getting rid of two extremely protective supports, Thresh and Tahm Kench, the female gun has no displacement. Without auxiliary protection like Thresh and Tahm Kench, it is difficult to win in team battles.
Survive!"
"But on the fourth floor, IG chose caution! Does that mean the top laner can withstand pressure?"
Changmao finally found a chance to speak between Teacher Park and Xiaoxiao, and spoke a long paragraph in one breath.
At the same time, the choice of Shen on the fourth floor of IG also gave everyone some ideas.
[Shen is actually okay. He is one of the few tank top laners who can compete with the AD top laner. Is this a blind guess that Lucian is not the mid laner? 】
[Shouldn’t be able to pick up the mid laner, BDD has never taken Lucian in the mid lane, Dragon Balls are all used by dudes!]
[To be honest, after Shen opened the sword formation, Lucian didn't have much to do with him.]
[Wonderful! If this IG goes on the road without changing players, and it still causes trouble, this hand Shen will definitely not be able to be used! Duke is still effective. If this Shen is taken out, there is no need to worry about the road. He can also support other players after level 6
people!】
Looking at Shen on the fourth floor of IG, the audience couldn't help but nod.
It is a well-known fact that there is no Shen in the hero pool of Lao Sha. Sometimes IG would rather use Shen as a support than to take it to the top lane.
But today, IG’s top lane is not to challenge the enemy, but to play Duke. The hero pool is defensively solid, so it’s even more reassuring to be cautious.
But soon, Longzhu’s choices for the fourth and fifth floors made everyone frown.
Lulu, Verus!
"Two ADCs? This version of Verus shouldn't be able to hit the mark! Could it be Lulu mid laner?"
At the commentary table, Changmao's face looked a little strange.
Longzhu chose another ADC Verus on the fourth and fifth floors. For a while, Longzhu’s position in the middle and lower lanes became confusing.
"Verus's female gun should be down. The female gun can't hit the lane, so it can be a support at most! The E skill consumes a lot, and the range of Verus's Q skill is also very long. I guess it's because the female police gun is more troublesome, so I'm afraid
I was suppressed, so I replaced two powerful ones to deal with it."
Xiaoxiao frowned and analyzed.
Teacher Park on the side also nodded: "Longzhu has indeed done his homework, and this hand swing is also very refined. Lulu will not suffer any loss when beating Syndra, and the Verusga female gun can even overwhelm the policewoman! You have to see.
How to choose IG’s support?”
"Morgana and Enchantress are gone. If IG wants to get an auxiliary that can work with the policewoman to take advantage, the options are a bit limited."
As a former professional player, Teacher Park knows very well that if the female police officer cannot suppress people in the lane, it will be useless.
Both of them were constantly thinking about IG's choice to break the game, but soon, IG's choice of counter position made both Teacher Park and Xiaoxiao's eyes brighten.
