The match between CP and WE is considered the final of Group A.
The team that wins the game will advance to the finals, waiting for the result of the battle between the two teams in Group B, and the winner will face off again.
The support rate at the scene was not overwhelming. In the previous game between WE and IM, the number of fans of WE crushed IM.
Because IM is the second team of EDG, there are still some fans who support IM. If it were another team, it would be even worse.
In the LPL, except for a few clubs that can compete with WE in terms of traffic, most clubs are far behind.
As an ancient club and the team with the most domestic fans at the time, WE 1.0WE has indeed won many honors.
However, with the split of WE, EDG dominated the domestic league after its formation, but WE failed to achieve good results again, and its fans slowly fell silent.
Until this year, WE2.0 has improved, and 60E has returned to the world again!
Speaking of which, the establishment of the Anti-Stress Bar, the largest forum for e-sports, has nothing to do with WE.
This post was originally used to ridicule WE's top laner Strawberry for resisting pressure, but later it gradually became the main place for black WE.
Today is also the semi-finals of the Summer Split, so there are a lot of spectators at the scene, and fans on both sides are showing their support for the team.
Fans carried countless support lights and posters, and some even had team logos on their faces.
Although the old WE has passed away, its fans are very sincere and many people still choose to support the new WE.
In their opinion, the change of team members is normal. As long as WE is still a club, they will support WE!
WE is only one step away from entering the finals. Once we can enter the finals, we have a chance to win the summer championship!
By then, WE will be able to go to the World Championship and have the opportunity to challenge for the highest honor of the S Championship.
Even if they finish second in the summer split, they still have very high points and can compete in the bubble game.
It is very difficult to get the second seed's S-game ticket with pure points.
After all, CP is the champion of the Spring Split, and its results in the Summer Split are not bad. Even if CP is eliminated, they are the team most likely to become the second seed.
Unless, RNG competes with them for the second seed.
Because there is not much difference in points between the two teams, and the points ratio in the summer split is higher than that in the spring split, if RNG enters the finals, but CP stops in the semi-finals, and RNG loses to WE in the finals.
Only if this series of conditions are met, CP will lose the opportunity to be the second seed and then compete in the bubble game to compete for the third seed.
Of course, this probability is very low, probably lower than the probability of winning a lottery ticket...
After all, CP's summer split record is very good, and the players' condition is also very good. Many heroes have been weakened, but they have not had a fatal impact on them!
It can be seen that CP has a strong ability to adapt to the version. They are a strong team, at least stronger than everyone imagined!
The WE players didn't think much about it. They had only one goal, and that was to advance to the finals!
...
"Support WE!"
"WE has so many fans. I thought this team was dead, but then it has such a high support rate?"
"The centipede is dead but not stiff. Today CP will make 60E despair~"
"Only CP, RNG and EDG can match the number of fans of WE, but IG and LGD can't do it~"
Netizens who watched the live broadcast on the web couldn't help but sigh when they saw the support rates of the two teams on the page, 61% and 39%.
You know, CP is the only team in the world that has won the Grand Slam!
And defeated SKT twice, the team that stepped on faker to win the championship!
Bringing the first S championship to LPL and breaking the dominance of LCK.
It is of great significance not only to the LPL, but also to all competition regions.
Because CP allows everyone to see that this game is not a game dominated by Koreans, nor is it always dominated by the LCK.
The champions of S3 and S4 both came from the LCK, and the strength of SKT and SSW was suffocating. Many viewers once felt that the LCK was invincible!
The emergence of CP has changed everyone’s views. Not only LCK teams can win the championship!
In other divisions, other teams have a chance to win!
CP's victory has stimulated the desire and pursuit of championships in all divisions to a certain extent.
Such a team, and its strength and performance are still above the standard. However, facing a down-and-out veteran team like WE, the support rate is not greatly crushed, which shows how many fans WE have.
In fact, many viewers are fans of the championship.
Most passers-by are achievement-oriented.
Whichever team performs well will have more fans.
It is really rare for WE to have no results for several years and still have so many die-hard fans.
"The players from both sides are already preparing for BP."
The commentators are Guan Zeyuan, Remember and Su Xiaoyan.
The camera scanned the players one by one, and both teams were discussing.
"Let me tell you something, CP's looks are really good!"
"WE is not bad either, mystic is so handsome~"
"Brother Lang is still the most handsome and domineering~"
"To be honest, Brother Lang is indeed handsome, but I always feel that his appearance does not match his personality. He plays so violently and arrogantly in the game, but he does not have that wild style off the court..."
"Competing for looks? CP has never lost!"
"Everyone is optimistic about CP, why do I feel like it might be an upset~"
"WE fans, stop kidding yourself, is this an upset? If CP loses, I will eat shit on the live broadcast!!!"
There was another fierce argument in the barrage. At this time, Guan Zeyuan and Zhihui were also analyzing the situation of the two teams.
"After the end of MSI, many of CP's heroes have been weakened." Guan Zeyuan said with a smile: "But it didn't have a big impact on CP. They are still one of the most powerful teams!"
I remember smiling and nodding and saying, "Yes, heroes such as Lucian, Ryze, Kindred and Male Spear have all been whittled down. Even the top laner, the Murloc, has been buffed. CP's performance is still very stable."
Su Xiaoyan looked at the two of them and said, "This is inseparable from their hero pool."
"Even though many heroes have been weakened, they can still use heroes with strong versions, such as barrels, vampires..."
All CP members can use any hero, free from the shackles of the version.
Just like TheShy, you can play both meat and warrior.
No matter what version, if he can choose the right hero, he will naturally not be affected by the version.
"Yes, and this version has a lot of swings in the mid-to-upper hero pool, and CP's tactical reserves are very rich. Heroes like Ekko, Vampire, and Ice Girl can all appear as swings..."
The current version of Vampire is a very popular hero, with very high team output, and due to the enhanced time talent, this is very beneficial to Vampire.
Vampires can convert blood volume into spell power. The talent of Time can increase blood volume by 300 points, and after reaching the full level, 100 blood points can be restored for every minion killed!
In addition, the resolute talent can provide additional resistance, increase treatment intensity and shield thickness, and increase total health by 4%!
Many jungle heroes, such as Nanqiang and Kindred, will choose this talent. The growth potential is so strong!
Generally speaking, the talent of tanking will make you become more fleshy, but vampires are not only as simple as turning into flesh, but they can also enhance their output ability!
Therefore, vampires have become a popular choice in the competition.
Ryze, a natural enemy of vampires, also disappeared from the arena. His ultimate move no longer provided bonuses to movement speed and spell blood-sucking, but instead became a warp jump.
The function of the ultimate move is a range of teleportation, which is equivalent to weakening Ryze's laning ability and also weakening Ryze's one-on-one ability!
After Ryze was reworked, his winning rate instantly dropped to the bottom.
Not to mention competitions, even rankings are rarely used.
Before, Ryze was a non-ban option!
Guan Zeyuan nodded: "Yes, Fist has indeed weakened many heroes, many of which are heroes whose CP has been used a lot."
"But their other change is undoubtedly a huge enhancement for CP!"
"That's the appearance of the ancient dragon!"
The Ancient Dragon is a major reform of fist for the little dragon. In the previous version, the buff of the little dragon was not important. Only when the fifth buff is superimposed will a qualitative change occur.
It takes so long that many games simply cannot last that time period.
Teams that avoid fighting will still choose to avoid fighting, and the game will inevitably become longer.
And among the elemental dragons, only the fire dragon is the most important. To enhance the attack power and magic power, it all depends on luck.
The same team may keep refreshing earth dragons when they have an advantage, and fire dragons when they are at a disadvantage. This is a bit confusing.
Therefore, the fist directly became a predictable state.
After the dragon is killed, a mark will be left on the ground. That mark represents the next dragon to be refreshed. You no longer rely on luck to win prizes.
This also means that if the next one is a fire dragon, both sides will have to prepare for the next dragon five minutes in advance, which will intensify the possibility of fighting between the two sides.
After 35 minutes, the elemental dragon will no longer be refreshed, but an ancient dragon will appear.
The ancient dragon will refresh every 10 minutes. In the next 120 seconds, basic attacks and skills will burn the target, causing 45 (+45 per layer of elemental dragon) damage in 3 seconds, and in the next 120 seconds
Within, the elemental dragon's buff effect is enhanced by 50%.
It can be said that after the ancient dragon came out, the teamfighting capabilities of both sides instantly dropped by several levels!
This is also a reform made by Riot Games in order to allow the dominant side to quickly deal with the opponent, so that the length of the game can be shortened and there will not be a large number of bladder games.
For many competitions, the average game length is around 40 minutes.
Time is not a question of measuring the excitement of the game, but the development lineup chosen by many teams has always avoided battles. There may be a few kills in the first 30 minutes. After everyone develops their magic equipment, a wave of team battles will determine the victory of the game.
Such a game is too boring and will greatly reduce people's enthusiasm for watching.
In order to enhance the viewing experience of the game, Riot Games hopes to make the fighting more intense, while reducing the length of the game to retain the enthusiasm of the audience.
"CP is a team that likes to fight, and the appearance of the ancient dragon will be a huge boost for them!" Guan Zeyuan said loudly.
"Indeed." Remember to nod: "Teams that like fighting can get this buff, an epic enhancement!"
Under the leadership of CP, LPL teams have begun to fight more and more, so the emergence of this BUFF is actually a disguised weakening for teams that like to operate.
In the past, you could always avoid fighting, but now with the Ancient Dragon BUFF, the opponent can directly force a group fight, and the increase in combat power is too terrifying.
If you have the Double Dragon buff in hand, it will be even more powerful.
In the previous match between WE and IM, WE got the Ancient Dragon buff and then wiped out IM in one wave to end the game.
Previously, IM struggled to withstand WE's offensive for so long, but was finally wiped out by the increase in the Ancient Dragon buff.
"CP chose the blue side, WE is on the red side!"
The players from both sides came on stage. Guan Zeyuan said.
Because CP's regular season results are better, they have priority in choosing sides in the playoffs.
IM had a huge advantage when playing against VG. Not only did they lead 1-0 at the start, they could also choose sides first. This was also an important reason why they were able to defeat VG.
LOL is a version-heavy game. It can be said that whichever team can better adapt to the version can achieve an outstanding record.
Therefore, many times LOL is a version of a god.
The reason why those star players are famous is because of their outstanding personal strength, their ability to adapt to the version faster, and their ability to use strong heroes in the version to cooperate with the team.
In some versions, it is easier to do BP on the red side, and in some versions, it is easier to do BP on the blue side.
The team that has the priority to choose sides will inevitably make a choice that is beneficial to the team.
"CPban dropped cards, Ice Girl and Shen!"
"WE banned Tam, Vampire and Captain."
Remember to look at Su Xiaoyan and say: "CP is obviously targeting the middle lane, and the heroes it bans are all heroes who can support it!"
"They probably want to play the early game?"
Guan Zeyuan said: "The rhythm of the current version is faster, which is actually very suitable for CP's rhythm. If they want to quickly gain an advantage, they will inevitably launch more attacks in the early stage and ban heroes with strong support. For those who like to fight
It’s a good choice for CP.”
Su Xiaoyan nodded lightly: "Yes, WEban's heroes are all version heroes."
"The current version of Captain and Vampire is too strong in teamfighting in the later stage. CP's hero pool is not only capable of swinging in the mid-to-upper range, but TheShy and Brother Lang's laning abilities are too strong. If they are not banned, it will become very difficult."
Guan Zeyuan agreed: "Yes."
"Vampire and Captain have average online abilities in the early stage, but Brother Lang and TheShy used them in previous games and were still able to gain an advantage in the lane, which is a bit outrageous~"
The implication is that the hero is stronger on the one hand, and the player's personal strength is stronger!
Even with heroes who were weak in early laning, TheShy and Chen Lang were still able to perform well in laning, which actually covered up the weakness of these late-game heroes in the early stage.
If WE gets these two heroes, it will be difficult to fight in the lane, and they will be defeated by CP!
The Captain hero has also had its swords weakened a lot since S5, but in a version where the pace has become faster and the pursuit of fighting is becoming more and more intense, this hero is still very popular.
After level 6, the ultimate move can support the whole map, and you can still help your teammates even if you don't go to the battlefield.
After the equipment is developed, the output is also very high, making him a relatively "perfect" hero.
At least in the current version, the captain is a popular top lane choice.
Remember to say: "WE's laning is not particularly strong. CP targets all supporting heroes, including Shen, whom 957 has always chosen before..."
"CP's intention is very obvious, it is to force you to take lanes and fight heroes."
"I'll show my cards right away and I'm going to fight you!"
