Chapter 612 The first victory is won, LPL is ecstatic!
"Damn it, isn't this too arrogant?"
JackeyLove originally approached Chen Lang and told Chen Lang about this matter.
Then, the people around heard what JackeyLove was about to say and immediately gathered around.
Xiaohu and others watched the entire interview video later. They were really unhappy when they saw the LCK coach looking down on them so much.
Although it is a fact that they lost to the opponent, no one will give in during such a quarrel.
Looking at the determined expressions of KKoma and the other four coaches in the picture, Ning, a hot-tempered and straightforward person, was very unhappy.
"Really." Xiaohu muttered: "It's all because we lost so ugly yesterday."
The LCK coach's ability to be so confident is inseparable from the result of yesterday's game.
LCK won the group stage completely, which is naturally their boasting and arrogant capital.
"We have to fight hard tomorrow." Xiye said sternly: "Even if we lose, we must let them see our strength!"
You must put enough pressure on the opponent to make them face them.
Even if you lose the game, the results will be different depending on the process.
Playing LMS today still helped them find some confidence.
Yesterday, the LPL lost all, so after returning to the hotel, everyone went to a meeting as soon as possible.
After the meeting, the players went to rush training, and the coaching staff began to gather together to discuss BP and tactics.
Therefore, everyone does not have time to pay attention to the LCK post-game interviews.
If JackeyLove hadn't revealed it, they wouldn't have known about it.
Chen Lang rubbed his temples to relax, and then said softly: "There is no point in arguing."
"LCK has already said harsh words. If they lose the game in the end, it will be the biggest slap in the face."
Xiaotian chuckled: "That's right."
"Anyway, we lost in the first round. Even if we lose to them in the final, the audience will be warned."
"But LCK is different. Their audience must have seen the hope of winning the championship."
"Let them see hope first, and then let them experience despair. This method is the best way to break people's defenses."
As a great onmyoji, Xiaotian knows how to accurately break people's defenses.
mlxg's eyes lit up and he said loudly: "This is a very good method."
mlxg's playing style is the same as his temper, very fiery.
He looks very thin, even malnourished, but he has a very fierce fighting style.
Uzi nodded: "Come on tomorrow and never let others look down upon us."
Regarding the post-game interviews of the four LCK coaches, everyone undoubtedly wanted to slap them back.
After returning to the hotel, everyone held a meeting again.
It's also a mobilization meeting.
It's just that compared to yesterday, the atmosphere today is much more relaxed and not as solemn and solemn as yesterday.
"First of all, thank you all for your hard work today. We successfully advanced to the finals!"
As the head coach of this intercontinental competition, Bai Yueya spoke loudly on the stage.
"Everyone played very well today and maintained good condition."
"If we continue playing like this tomorrow, I think we have a very good chance of defeating the LCK!"
Bai Yueya watched the players and staff at the scene gradually cool down in excitement, and then he continued to speak:
"Yesterday, our coaching staff also discussed the finals together."
"As the LCK coach said, we do not have an advantage against the teams in their division."
"They lost all teams except CP in the group stage, and their strong point is the operational version."
The LPL has won the world championship in the past two years, and CP's secret to winning the championship is to defeat its opponents through fierce ganks and team battles.
Therefore, Riot Games’ game change policy in the past two years has basically been to gain more advantages in the operation area.
This is the strength of LCK.
As for Riot, they don’t want one division to dominate.
Therefore, the winning team and division will be weakened.
That is to say, CP is so tenacious that these changes failed to prevent them from winning the championship.
Just like the emergence of the green jungle knife, the team's vision has directly improved by several levels.
With more vision arranged, it will be more difficult to gank the opponent. This is not a good thing for teams that like to attack the rhythm.
It just so happens that CP is a team with this type of rhythm.
This is equivalent to the fist clearly weakening CP.
"We all have a consensus." Bai Yueya continued on the stage: "Our greatest advantage is CP."
"They not only have to guess the timing and order of CP's appearance, but also arrange for opponents to collide with each other to wear down our strongest combat effectiveness."
CP is currently the strongest, this is generally recognized.
Therefore, LCK will definitely choose a weaker team to play CP.
If you lose, you won’t lose money; if you win, you will gain blood.
"Among the four teams in the LCK this year, MVP and SSG are relatively weak."
SKT and KT are both so powerful. These two teams can be said to be the "Galactic Battleships" of the LCK.
The LCK must hope that these two teams will avoid CP, so that they will have a great chance of winning.
Everyone can think of Tian Ji's trick of horse racing.
"So, our idea is to win the game when facing these two teams!"
White Crescent Moon spoke decisively.
"Assuming CP can win one game, it means that in the next three games, we have to win at least one game to push the game to the decisive game, so that CP can play again!"
"The three teams include MVP and SSG, so I think it is not difficult for us to win the next game."
Bai Yueya broke down the matter and analyzed it for everyone to listen to.
"In order to win the intercontinental championship, our coaching staff has discussed it and all tactics and routines will be shared."
"This time, we have no sectarian differences. We are all friends fighting side by side. Let us defeat the LCK together!"
After finishing speaking, Hongmi came on stage and began to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the four LCK teams.
Among them, SKT and KT have relatively few explanations.
First, because the players of these two teams are strong and make few mistakes, it is very difficult to defeat them by analyzing some of their weaknesses.
In particular, the players of these two teams adjust very quickly. If one team loses, they may have already adjusted for the next team.
Secondly, for LPL.
MVP and SSG are relatively weak teams, so naturally we use these two teams as a breakthrough.
As long as we win a game against these two teams, we can guarantee that the LPL will enter the finals, and then everything will be left to CP.
"The SSG bottom lane combination is very good in laning, but the upper limit depends on the top and jungle combination."
Hongmi analyzed the advantages of SSG: "Cuvve is a player with a deep hero pool and strong laning ability. He rarely gives opportunities to his opponents online. He has a good sense of team play and can often find excellent opportunities to cut in."
Hongmi showed cuvve’s performance data in the league and used several scenes to illustrate its point.
"Jungle Ambition is very experienced and is especially good at operations and planning. Once he gets into his own rhythm, he will be very powerful."
An Zhangmen, Kasa and Factory Director are the same type of junglers, with a clear and flexible mind and few operational mistakes.
"SSG is a team that attaches great importance to operations. With the combination of eye stones and real eyes, their offense can put great pressure on them."
"And the people in this team like to buy real eyes very much. When they return to the city to resupply, even if they don't buy equipment, they have to buy eyes first."
Hongmi pointed at the screen. In the early days, everyone in SSG didn't have much money. Instead of updating their equipment when going out, they bought two real eyes.
Not only assisting one person to buy, but five people to buy two real eyes together!
This also allows SSG to clearly grasp the opponent's position, thereby avoiding being successfully ganked.
"The advantage of this is that it has a strong ability to prevent gank, but the disadvantages are also obvious."
"In the early stage, a large amount of money was invested in the real eye, which will greatly delay the time of outfit production and equipment formation."
Two real eyes cost 150, and you still need to buy them continuously, which is really slow.
"Playing against this kind of team, our teams all have a good rhythm. We only need to constantly attack SSG's jungle area to find Leader An, and his gameplay will be broken."
To play Ambition, you need to invade fiercely, and the junglers from the four teams present are all very offensive junglers.
This is very restrained in SSG's gameplay.
Just do it if you don't accept life or death, don't care what the other person thinks, just rush over and get it all in.
When the other party sees such unscrupulous attack, they will worry about whether there is an ambush.
After talking about SSG again, Hongmi changed the topic and talked directly about MVP.
"This team relies on support to drive the rhythm, and the hero pools in the middle and support overlap. In the league, they often use BP to set up opponents."
This is the advantage of having a deep hero pool, so you can choose and swing at will.
"Hold down the assist and it will be much easier to hit."
Hongmi said: "MVP likes to link up the auxiliary and jungle, so there are two ways to play."
“One way is to take advantage of the auxiliary’s roaming time to speed up the tempo in the bottom lane, looking for opportunities to kill the opponent or quickly push down the defense tower to change lanes.
"The second type is Nosuke's duel. As long as you win the opponent, you will have an advantage."
Hongmi also found out some of the habits of these teams in the early stages.
Chen Lang secretly wrote down these things, and all the players were listening carefully.
"I feel like we will have a good time against Samsung." UZI added.
"I am confident that I can have an advantage in the bottom lane. As long as I keep an eye on them in the middle and top lane, mlxg can come to the bottom lane and fight with us. Help the bottom lane counter squat."
In 2V2, UZI has absolute confidence in killing the ruler.
SSG, RNG and WE are somewhat similar, they are all teams that stick to the bottom lane.
"Let's play MVP!" Ning said with a smile: "I think our middle, upper and jungle can completely defeat each other."
"Even if the support follows the jungler and roams around, we can definitely beat them."
MVP doesn't like to play around AD, so the support will frequently follow the jungler to gank.
In this way, only one person in the bottom lane will develop and can only resist the pressure.
For IG, their bot lane strength is poor. Facing MVP's bot lane play style, they are more favored by them.
This means that the opponent will not open IG's breakthrough from the bottom lane.
Playing in the middle and upper field, Ning has absolute confidence.
"Okay!" Hongmi laughed when she saw the player's reaction.
This is the kind of confidence you need!
If you don't even have the confidence to defeat your opponent, how can you defeat your opponent?
...
The next day, the finals begin.
Although the venue is small, due to the rhythm of the first two days, there are still a lot of spectators on site.
All teams in LCK and LPL are in the same lounge at this time, and everyone is discussing which team will go first.
"We have to guess the order in which CP will play."
KKoma and several other coaches gathered together to discuss.
SSG's coach said: "I think CP should be in the first game."
"I feel like they will get a good start and boost the team's morale."
Coach KT nodded: "It's very possible."
Sometimes, if you can win the first game well, it can really boost the morale of the remaining players.
Especially when the LPL as a whole is not as good as the LCK, it is very possible and necessary to use the first game to boost the morale of the remaining three teams in the LPL.
"Sending the MVP in the first game?"
The MVP coach did not feel angry because he was underestimated, but said seriously: "I think the opponent may also use our inertial thinking to make a game."
"They didn't let CP play in the first battle, but played in the back."
"It makes sense." SSG coach said.
kkoma hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Then you go ahead."
He looked at the Samsung coach.
The strongest of the four LCK teams are KT and SKT, so these two teams must not be included.
"Okay." The Samsung coach nodded: "Let's go."
Even if you encounter CP, it doesn't matter if you lose the first game.
If they don't meet CP, they still have a high chance of winning the game.
...
On the other side, LPL is also discussing this matter.
"Who should I send first?"
Bai Yueya said: "Be steady and go to CP first."
"We will win the first battle first."
Hongmi shook his head in the negative: "This is not good."
"The intention is so obvious. Once the other party sets a trap for us, they will get right in."
Bai Yueya said: "But if you win the first game, your morale will be boosted."
"As long as we win one of the next three games, the odds are quite high."
Bai Yueya has always been a person who seeks stability. He feels that if he can win the first battle, it will greatly increase the confidence of everyone.
On the contrary, if you lose, your morale will be dealt a heavy blow.
Hongmi said: "Don't think about stability, but think about winning."
Hongmi is a very good coach, his goal is never low requirements but high requirements.
Therefore, even if the overall strength of the LPL is not as good as the LCK, what he thinks about is not how to stabilize, but to defeat his opponents.
"We'll see the result in the first game. If we lose, it's not too late to let the CP go."
Hongmi said: "Chen Lang and others have very strong psychological qualities and they will not be easily affected."
What he means is to let other teams play in the first game. If the other teams lose, let Chen Lang and others play.
Even if you lose the first game, it will not affect your victory in the second game.
Because Chen Lang and others are not a team that is easily influenced.
Even though some individuals may have poor ability to withstand pressure, the two double Cs, Chen Lang and JackeyLove, have strong ability to withstand pressure, and they can guarantee the team's lower limit.
Hongmi took CP for a year last year, so he naturally knows the CP players better than anyone else.
Even if they lose the first game, Chen Lang and others can win the second game, which can also improve the morale of the team.
"I think it's okay." The coaches of the RNG and IG teams nodded in agreement.
They have more confidence in CP than in their own team.
...
The game begins.
The commentary begins on the commentary stage.
They won't know which team the two sides will send to the stage until the last moment.
Therefore, the commentators will also make predictions in the commentary box.
The commentators in each division have different understandings. Many people think that either SKT or MVP will appear in the first game of LCK.
Because these two teams are the strongest and weakest representatives of the LCK.
The strongest and the weakest are the two choices with the highest chance of playing.
"I just got news that the first team in the LCK will be the SSG team!"
"And the LPL side is RNG!"
This result obviously exceeded everyone's expectations.
No one expected that LPL would send RNG first instead of CP.
Guan Zeyuan said with a smile: "Both sides are guessing what the other is thinking and responding to it."
"Not only are the players on the court dueling, but the coaching staff off the court are also engaging in a battle of wits."
Remember to smile and say: "That's right."
"RNG and SSG are both very strong teams in their respective divisions."
"Furthermore, both teams' playing styles are more focused on protecting the bottom lane, so the battle between them will be very fierce."
When the same style of play collides, there will inevitably be fierce sparks.
Two teams, RNG and SSG, appear.
The BPs of both sides have to attack the opponent's strong points.
RNG chose a lineup of four guarantees and one push, while SSG chose a lineup of four and one point push.
Cuvee got his favorite hero Gnar, and accumulated a lot of advantages during the laning period.
However, several waves of gank by mlxg made cuvee very uncomfortable.
Xiaohu and crown brother in the middle are evenly matched.
Uzi in the bottom lane has an advantage over Chi Di Xiao.
For a time, RNG gained some advantages in the early stage.
Then, in the mid-term, SSG began to exert its strength.
Use Gnar's single belt to continuously break through RNG's tactics.
mlxg has a very bad temper. When pushing in the middle of a wave, he decisively flashed EQ to start a team fight and directly jumped over SSG's defense tower to start a team battle.
At this time, Nal was still playing single-handedly on the wing. mxlg's sudden attack caught the entire SSG team by surprise.
After a wave of perfect cooperation, RNG took the lead in killing the ruler.
With less output points and one less person on the front, RNG won the team battle with lightning speed.
After the cuvee came down, there was no way to recover.
SSG was defeated by RNG and was wiped out in a wave.
"RNG played so suddenly!" Guan Zeyuan couldn't help but exclaimed.
I remember being amazed: "SSG didn't expect mlxg to start a group like this!"
"They are being wiped out by the group this time, and they are going to lose the dragon!"
Changmao smiled and said: "After this wave, RNG has a huge advantage!"
After the RNG team defeated SSG, they went to open the Baron.
The next wave advances with the Baron buff, coupled with the economic lead, UZI's output environment is very good.
RNG pushed away SSG's crystals in one wave, winning the first battle smoothly for LPL!
