"Crushed." Miller exhaled softly, his mind still filled with disbelief.
"It's incredible. CP's strength is so strong that IG has no power to fight back!"
Wawa shook his head and said with a smile: "Who would have thought that CP's rhythm is so good, it makes IG run around with his head in his hands!"
"This one actually resulted in the ID midfielder being blown up. The midfielder duo of Lang Ge and Xiaohuahua are far more powerful than everyone imagined. Their operation and awareness are excellent, they have strong ability to seize opportunities, and they dare to play."
"Yes, these are young people!" Miller said: "Young people dare to play and show off, are sharp in operation, and are not afraid of being trapped. I think CP has had this style all the way, and so have the players on the team.
This is the nature of young people!"
"CP really opened my eyes. This team has a bright future. They are young, passionate and energetic!"
Before the duel between the two sides, Miller was more optimistic about IG, because the midfielder duo of Rookie and Kakao is very strong. They have been able to defeat strong teams such as SSW, SSB, and SKT in the LCK Summer Championship and win the championship. Needless to say, their strength.
You know, the LCK has dominated LOL in the past two years. No division can match the strength of the LCK. It can even be said that the S finals are not as exciting as the LCK summer finals!
Many times in the S game, if the LCK team did not die in the civil war, it would be difficult to be defeated by other teams, so OMG defeated the NWS last year, how shocking it was!
Because of this, OMG quickly gained a large number of fans. In this context where global LOL is dominated by South Korea, Rookie and Kakao were able to defeat a number of super teams and well-known players. Their strength is enough to prove how strong they are!
Although the CP team has a good record, although they have not lost a single game, and although they have played easily all the way, in most people's minds, they are still not as good as IG.
Mainly, Chen Lang and Xiaohuahua are newcomers. This pair fights fiercely and is super strong, but it also depends on who the opponent is!
The opponents can be said to be the top players in the world, can they perform as well as before?
Many times, the God-of-War-like existence is brought out by the opponent, such as the weapon master in the S3 finals.
The weapons master of SKT's top laner Ohmu directly broke the hearts of the royal family and the LPL audience, and also let everyone see what the God of War is!
But, is it really because of Da Mu’s personal strength?
No, although Ohmu's top laner is very strong, he is far from the strongest candidate for the top lane position. This is mainly because the existence of FAKER attracted too much firepower, which gave Ohmu good time and space to develop. In the end
The divine weapon master is invincible.
It can also be said that because the opponent is the royal family, a team that does not care about the road has raised a monster-like weapons master, which highlights the strength of Damu!
Many times, you cannot directly compare horizontally, but you also need to compare your opponents vertically. The same is true for Chen Lang and Xiaohuahua. The most powerful opponents they have encountered so far can be said to be QG's midfielder, Doinb and swift.
These two are indeed quite powerful, otherwise QG would not have the record it has today, but they are still one level behind Rookie and Kakao.
In the opinion of many people, people like Rookie and PAWN are the same level of mid laners. Chen Lang can only be considered second-tier at best, ranking below them. The same goes for the little peanuts in the jungle position.
However, the rhythm of Chen Lang and Xiao Peanut in this scene completely blew up Rookie's kakao, and also made everyone refresh their previous views.
Perhaps, they still underestimated the newcomers in the middle and jungle, Chen Lang and Xiao Peanut?
This time, it was purely a collision between the middle and jungle, and CP won a big victory!
At the beginning, Little Peanut countered Kakao with a buff, and then came the encounter in the jungle. Little Peanut predicted a cocoon to the limit and directly hit the rookie who was following the duck, and IG exploded in the middle and jungle.
Then the two sides went to the top lane to support, and this time it was a dead heat. The top laner TheShy had a big advantage, and the back laner was invincible. However, due to the limitations of the top lane, he mostly restrained the opponent and did not come to the front, so
The pressure given to IG is not as intuitive as that of Chen Lang and Xiaohuahua.
Back online, Chen Lang's Ekko single-killed Rookie's Jace, and then Rookie and Kakao roamed. This wave was also the rhythm of IG's collapse.
The middle and jungle caught people, but Chen Lang showed off and killed two people. At this point, IG had no chance of a comeback. The middle and jungle exploded, followed by CP's personal show.
JackeyLove flashed to start the team, Chen Lang and Xiaohuahua jumped over the tower to kill people, including Chen Lang's set of three rings + thunder that directly killed Lucian in seconds. IG collapsed across the board, and the jungle fell. Fighting for one more second was torture for IG players.
.
...
Rest time after the game.
Chen Lang and his team were discussing the play style and BP for the next game, and at the same time summarized several major problems that occurred in the previous game.
After the discussion was completed, everyone leaned on the e-sports chairs to rest. Playing games is still very mentally and physically demanding, especially if you are concentrating on a game.
Only when the game is over can you relax and feel tired. Fortunately, everyone is young and has high energy.
JackeyLove thought of the scene during the review just now, looked at Chen Lang and asked: "Brother Lang, how did you deceive Rookie and Kakao in that one versus two wave?"
Hearing this, several other teammates cast curious glances at Chen Lang. They were a little curious during the game just now, but because they were concentrating on the game, no one asked. Now that JackeyLove mentioned it, everyone also wanted to know the reason.
"Isn't there a hand-raising action in Ike's W?" Chen Lang said with a smile.
"Yes." JackeyLove nodded.
"The action when Ekko is doing last-ditch damage is similar to releasing W. When Rookie and I were fighting A, I pressed S the moment I drew A, which terminated the action of drawing A, but I raised my hand to do it. Rookie must have thought I was
I used W, so I dared to catch up."
lqs suddenly realized: "That's it."
He didn't pay attention to the battle in the middle before, he just knew the ending. Only now did he know what Chen Lang did.
As professional players, everyone naturally knows these skills. When playing games, they often use S for last-hitting. They didn't expect that Chen Lang could react like this at that moment. It was really amazing.
"No wonder Brother Lang, you can kill the enemy mid laner every time. You think too much."
"Careful and thoughtful."
JackeyLove and lqs admired.
This is not only a problem at the operational level, but also a problem at the consciousness level.
This shows that after Chen Lang saw Kakao coming to arrest him, he already had a plan in his mind to deal with it, including running into the grass and placing W to seduce Kakao and Rookie in, all of which were part of his plan!
Horrible man!
The strength of professional players is among the best. Top players often seem to be doing a simple single kill but actually hide many games. In the wave just now, Chen Lang and Rookie were on guard against each other.
Rookie was guarding against Chen Lang's W skill. Chen Lang knew that Rookie and Kakao were guarding against him, so he made a fake move of raising his hand to invite you into the urn.
Otherwise, the other two would not be determined to chase him, and there would be no field of vision in the grass below. Chen Lang's plan was successful, because from their perspective, Chen Lang was bound to die.
JackeyLove is one of those people who is very accurate in predicting the blood volume and situation. He is actually a little worse at operations. Many times he thinks it is possible and just does it without thinking too much.
This is very suitable for his fierce fighting style, because the opportunity is only a moment, and sometimes thinking too much will delay the opportunity. Unless the rhythm is set in advance, detailed planning is required, one step after another.
TheShy and Little Peanut roughly understood Chen Lang's operations and thoughts, so they weren't too surprised. They did it this way many times. They were also very thoughtful players.
TheShy is a bit like a combination of JackeyLove and Chen Lang. Sometimes he seems very reckless, but sometimes he is very meticulous, with a lot of details and very good operations.
...
After the first round of the two sides ended, the barrage was already overwhelming, with IG fans and some angry anti-counterfeiters and dissatisfied fans fighting.
Rookie and kakao also became the focus. It can be said that they were torn apart by that one. Their strongest midfielder was like a joke, and was directly taught by the new midfielder combination of Chen Lang and Xiaohuahua.
This kind of suitability is that no matter how hard you brag before the game, the loss will be miserable.
The wave of Chen Lang killing two in the middle was directly made into an animated picture, and it started to spread wildly in major forums and posts. Chen Lang's operation was once again amazing.
Another shocking thing is that his operation and understanding of New Yinglang are very strong, far better than any other player. This is Ekko's first show in the LPL. Chen Lang's performance in this game allowed many teams to see the hero Ekko.
Advantages and strong points.
Many teams have decided to ask their mid laners to practice this hero and improve their proficiency so that they can choose it in the game. They realize that this hero will definitely become a favorite in the game.
Once you don't know how to do it, you will be at a huge disadvantage in terms of BP, and you will be a hero that you can either ban or pick!
Ekko has movement, burst, and ultimate escape all in one. He is a hero with both offense and defense. He can advance and retreat, and once his W is used well, it can turn the tide of the battle!
Just imagine, Ike can drop a C position in the crowd and escape completely, even more powerful than the Enchantress!
IG's Xiaoguang has a lot to say about this. The scene of him being knocked out by Chen Lang in a second has also been made into a highlight reel. Ike's terrifying damage and mobility are on full display!
The second game begins.
"The two sides took a short break and ushered in the second game." Miller and Wawa once again stood in front of the stage to explain to the audience.
Wawa smiled and said: "To be honest, I didn't expect that IG lost so completely in the first game. I don't think IG is weak, it's just that CP is strong."
"We have always said that their team is full of new players and is a team that has just joined LP in LSPL. They need to adapt to the rhythm of LPL. But from the current point of view, it is not that they have to adapt to the rhythm of LPL, but that the teams in LPL have to adapt to theirs.
The rhythm is right!”
Miller nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, although CP is young, they are full of talent. Their biggest disadvantage is their youth, and their biggest advantage is still young!"
"Young people react quickly, dare to operate without being afraid of taking the blame, and the most important thing about being young is that they can practice heroes very quickly. Look at this new hero Ekko. It was only released not long ago, and CP only chose it in the arena. This is Ekko's role in the game.
In his LPL debut, his operation amazed everyone!"
"Furthermore, TheShy is a player who has transferred to a unit. From the beginning, he only played heroes and team-fighting heroes. Now he can also play single-band heroes like Gnar. They grow very fast, which is something that young players cannot do.
Comparative advantage!”
The doll nodded and said, "Yes."
"Getting back to the subject, after IG lost the first game, they will definitely make adjustments to see if they will change their tactics next."
"I think IG should ban the hero Ekko. The last wave of Langge's Ekko caused them a lot of obstruction. Even if they switch to other heroes, the rhythm of the first few waves may be different."
Miller said: "It's possible that Ekko's few waves of W are too critical. If it were replaced by another hero, it would not have this effect, and the ending might be different."
"However, we just said that the advantage of young players is that they can learn heroes quickly. Maybe Rookie can also play this hero, and then IG may steal it. The hero Ekko should become a focus of the second game for both sides."
Wawa held his chin in his hand, frowned and thought for a while, and said: "If IG can't restrict it, many people will definitely target it. In fact, Brother Lang's choice of Ike should be something no one would have thought of."
"But after today's game, I think Ekko will become a popular hero in the game. The mechanism of this hero is somewhat perfect."
While the two were talking, BP started.
"IG directly banned Ekko. It seems that they have not thought of a way to target the hero Ekko for the time being." Miller analyzed.
Wawa said: "Ike is not necessarily a rookie hero. In fact, it can be seen from the confrontation between the two sides that Lang Ge is avoiding the battle in the early stage, which shows that this hero is a bit weak in the early stage and needs to be developed, while IG's rhythm is in the hands of the midfielder.
Then Rookie and Kakao need to work together to find the rhythm."
"If Rookie chooses Ekko, a hero who is more developed, IG's early rhythm will be lost. This hero is not suitable for IG's rhythm. Maybe they need to practice the style of play that this hero is extremely suitable for."
Many heroes in the game are selected to match the lineup and play style, and are not as random as in the pub game.
Once a hero cannot match the lineup or the team's play style, then even if the players know how to play, there is little point in selecting them.
Just like the ADC of Policewoman, she is usually used as the core to fight in the late stage. Resources will be given to Policewoman as much as possible. If the lineup is not a protective lineup, she will generally not be used because of the hero's power period.
Just in the middle and late stages.
If it is a lineup for fighting in the early and mid-term, you will definitely not choose a hero like the policewoman who supports the rhythm. Generally, you will choose a hero like Skateboards and Lucian who are strong in the early and mid-term. This is the suitability of the hero for the lineup.
Miller and Wawa still recognize the strength of the top players in the LPL. They don't think Rookie can't play Ekko. After all, after new heroes are released, players will explore and become familiar with them.
If you don’t ask, if you encounter someone in a game and you don’t know how to fight, then how can you still play?
"IG banned Ike, Gnar and Feng Nu in the first three moves!" Miller said.
"It's clear that we need to restrict Brother Lang and TheShy!"
"TheShy's Gnar gave IG a huge headache in the last round. If he hadn't gone to the jungle to support him in the first wave and the CP was pure 2 vs. 2, the midfielder would not have been IG's opponent."
Wawa echoed: "Yes, Gnar has no natural enemies in the lane, and he can also get lane power to suppress people and can support him at any time. IG wants to limit TheShy to the top lane."
Both Ekko and Feng Nu were targeted at banning, one was against the ban person that Chen Lang had just played, and Feng Nu was banned because of the version hero, one of CP's favorite heroes.
Moreover, after JackeyLove and lqs get Feng Nu in the bottom lane, their playing style will be more aggressive. JackeyLove is a little careless with Feng Nu's protection, which will pose a great threat to IG's bottom lane.
Chen Lang and the others were banned regularly, and they were very relaxed.
"Give me the counter position this time. The last one I played was too uncomfortable." He was discussing with his teammates when he was BPing.
In the last game, he was beaten like a dog by TheShy. The vampire had no way of playing against Gnar. He was also killed by jumping over the tower, which directly caused the overall collapse.
This one, I want to carry it to prove myself.
"good!"
"I must avenge my shame this time!" After choosing a hero, he looked towards the opposite lane with murderous intent.
It had been a long time since he had played such a miserable game. The Vampire he played just now made him very uncomfortable. He lost line support in the jungle in the early stage, and then he was killed by the opponent's line of troops and jumped over the tower, which directly caused him to collapse.
