Chapter 654 The obstacle to winning the championship, the strongest opponent LZ
During the dinner, Chen Lang and others were still discussing the World Championship.
Lin Huiyin took Lin Wanwan to Chen Lang's parents.
Lin Wanwan and Chen Lang are now boyfriend and girlfriend. It is too early to let the parents of the two families meet.
At least we have to wait until our relationship is stable or we can discuss things like getting engaged.
At this point in time, Lin Huiyin, as Lin Wanwan's eldest sister, is of course obliged to greet Chen Lang's parents on their behalf.
This is a superficial attitude.
Lin Huiyin's show of goodwill also symbolizes that her family agrees with Chen Lang and Lin Wanwan's free love.
"The rng competition is about to begin!"
From the end of their game to when they come to the hotel for dinner.
Two hours have passed during this period, and two games have ended midway.
Due to the large strength gap between the two sides, the game ended relatively early.
rng also appears at the golden hour, which is a time specially arranged by the official.
I have to say that the traffic in the all-China class is really high.
The game ratings of the two teams rng and cp are the highest among all games, which also means how much the audience pays attention to these two teams.
The opponent of rng is ssg.
In terms of strength, there is not much difference between the two teams.
RNG's advantage lies in Uzi, while SSG's top laner is Cuvve. There is not much difference between the middle and jungle sides.
This is also the view held by most people before the game.
Both teams have banned many AD heroes, which shows their understanding of the version and the importance they attach to the players.
The current version is the incense burner version. After ADs such as Big Mouth and Rat are formed, team battles will basically explode.
No matter how strong the front row is, it can't withstand the damage.
Therefore, the game was postponed to the later stage, and it was a game between the incense burner auxiliary and his ad pendant.
Whichever side has stronger AD will be more likely to win the game.
It can be said that the outcome of the game is closely related to AD.
Uzi and Ruler are both the best ADCs, and there is not much difference in strength.
rng had three banads and ssg had two banads. In the first round, both sides banned five AD heroes!
“I feel like in this version, players who don’t have enough hero pool will find it difficult to compete,” jackeylove complained.
Chen Lang glanced at jackeylove and said, "You are enough anyway."
"Haha." jackeylove laughed: "Brother, the hero pool is deep!"
"It's just for you." Xiaotian said in a strange tone.
It was normal for the two of them to quarrel, and they returned to the BP of the game again.
ssg was on the blue side and grabbed the mouse first.
Because heroes such as Big Mouth and Skateboard Shoes were banned, Rat became the most powerful ad hero in the group.
It was precisely because both sides banned 5 ADs in the first round that ssg won the mouse in the first grab.
rng took back the team-starting combination of Galio and Prince.
In this BP, RNG also designed SSG to make them think that Galio was in the mid lane, but was moved to the top lane.
When SSG got Ryze, they originally wanted to play Galio in the lane and get the lane rights to roam comfortably, but RNG helped Xiaohu choose mid laner Syndra.
In the end, rng's rhythm was very good, relying on Uzi's strong line up in the bottom lane to completely suppress the ruler.
"It's really easy to shoot mice with a small cannon." jackeylove said.
The burst of the small cannon is much higher than that of the mouse, and its ability to clear lines is also stronger.
The mouse focuses on teamfighting, and the small cannon is very good at pushing lanes and towers.
lxg also understands this very well and keeps coming to the bottom lane to help uzi gain an advantage.
Take advantage of the small cannon's ability to push down towers quickly to push down SSG's bottom defense tower very early.
Then start taking dragons and vanguards, just like Chen Lang and others did when playing skt.
However, ssg is not like skt's lineup. The early output is too weak and there is no capital to compete with rng.
After all, the early stage ability of the cannon is much stronger than that of the mouse.
At 13 minutes, rng used the vanguard to push down ssg's second tower in the bottom lane.
The rhythm is faster than when CP plays SKT!
SSG has been passively defending, Uzi's cannons have taken all the economy, coupled with lxg's desperate ganking method and Galio's invincible team-starting combination.
rng directly blocked ssg!
The head ratio of 11 to 0 ended the game!
This match, which was originally thought to be evenly matched, ended in a one-sided victory.
It shocked everyone directly.
As Miller explained, his voice became extremely excited.
Especially at the moment when the SSG crystal exploded, before they even captured a single head, the voice of the commentator became full of fighting spirit.
They never thought that rng could zero-block ssg!
You know, this is SSG who swept kt 3-0!
kt has gathered some of the world's top players, among which paw was a player who once dominated lpl, winning the first si trophy for lpl!
rng's sudden sweep of ssg shocked everyone.
The revelry of the audience was louder than when CP defeated SKT.
Originally they thought that this year's LPL championship would only be cp, but now there is another rng, which is a great thing!
Moreover, we have not competed yet, and everyone is full of admiration for us.
"It's a bit fierce." Brother Shengqiang said after watching the game.
Xiaotian nodded: "lxg is too reckless in starting a team. I beat ssg and I don't know how to deal with it."
Several key waves were initiated by lxg’s prince.
Especially when rng pushed the second tower in the middle, he went around alone and directly flashed eq and r to start the team battle, which directly stunned the SSG guarding the tower.
Coupled with the fact that the lineup was torn apart by the impact, ssg was simply unable to implement an effective response strategy.
When the lineup is scattered, the power of the mouse is greatly reduced.
On the contrary, the high-cost burst of the small cannon is fully displayed, and the w [rocket jump] is refreshed by constantly killing people, and the damage is maxed out.
"With rng's momentum, I feel like we will run into them in the next games."
White Crescent said: "We must prepare tactics to deal with them in advance."
Chen Lang asked, "Coping tactics?"
"That's it for banadc."
Uzi does play well, but that doesn't mean he is invincible.
As long as his ad heroes are banned, his threat will dissipate.
"That's right." Xiaotian teased with a smile.
What the factory director said when he was arrested at level 2 of UZI is simply the Bible.
jackeylove is already browsing the forum. He is a surfing expert and is always on the front line.
The same goes for Xiaotian, but Xiaotian's mentality is obviously not as good as jackeylove's, and his ability to withstand stress is very poor.
His purpose in joining the forum is also to practice his ability to withstand stress.
He used to only play Hupu, but jackeylove asked him to go to the post bar, because the people in the anti-pressure bar were very aggressive in trolling, and it was a great way to train his mentality.
Xiaotian went there doubtful, and then the next day he became a little doubtful about life.
It can only be said that it is worthy of being called an e-sports public toilet. The firepower is indeed a bit fierce and he cannot bear it.
"Look, Senior Brother's interview is out!" Xiaotian immediately showed the video to his teammates.
"What do you think of the to20 players that Riot has chosen this year?"
After ts won the game, the reporter asked this question when interviewing him.
The senior brother is also an expert at showing off. His nickname is because he said in the previous World Championship that he thinks everyone is rubbish.
This sentence is the same as what Senior Brother Duanshui Shui said, so his nickname in China is Senior Brother.
The senior brother was not shy at all when facing the reporter's question. Instead, he laughed and answered:
"Seriously, except for a few players such as ng and faker, the rest of them don't make me feel any pressure."
"Especially in the AD field, I think I am the strongest. Even if uzi and jackeylove meet me, they will have a headache."
"No one can underestimate the threat I pose in the bottom lane."
This year, Big Brother's team, TS, just won the summer championship, which is another championship in Big Brother's career, so he is very happy and has gained confidence.
He believes that he has reached the peak of his career, and that both his strength and experience have reached the pinnacle.
In the North American competition, he destroyed the bottom lane of all teams.
This time, his purpose in coming to the World Championship is to continue this dominance and defeat the bottom lane of all teams!
Now, the reporter happened to ask him what he thought of other players.
He can be considered as issuing a challenge to everyone in advance.
After rng won the game, it also gave other teams a warning that the AD heroes in the bottom lane are particularly important.
Even more, you can mention the priority of ad and grab it if necessary.
There is one last game tonight, and that is we.
Due to g's successive victories, everyone is looking forward to this game.
We lived up to expectations and won decisively.
At the same time, the big brother's face was also swollen.
In a previous interview, the senior brother felt that he was so dominant in the bottom lane that even ADCs like Uzi, JackeyLove, and Bang were not looked down upon.
Not to mention players like our ystic who entered the World Championship for the first time.
However, he was directly defeated in the bottom lane, and we easily won the victory.
The eldest brother was also made fun of by the audience.
lpl got off to a good start and won all three games!
Among them, two were tough battles.
For lpl viewers, lck is always the most threatening opponent.
skt and ssg lost one after another, which also made everyone very optimistic about the results of this year's world championship.
"Only one lz left!"
"I hope we can defeat lz~"
"I'm thinking that maybe there will be three LPL teams in the semi-finals this year!"
"To be fair, lz is the champion of the summer split after all. I feel that they are the strongest lck team. Don't be too blindly optimistic."
"I don't think lz should be afraid. It's the first time for their team to enter the World Championship. Only two people in the bottom lane have experience in the World Championship. The rest are newcomers. They may not be able to achieve results in the World Championship!"
"Yes, we just need to contain lz's bottom lane. We's bottom lane is very strong. Senior brother was penetrated today."
"Don't talk about senior brother, that person can only show off but has no strength. The gold content of the North American championship is not high~"
Netizens treat Big Brother as a piece of fun.
Therefore, it was expected that he would be swept away by we.
After all, among the four major competition regions, North America has always been at the bottom.
The results of the first day's schedule are very good for lpl.
The lck side exploded.
They lost both games on the first day, which was simply torturing them.
Netizens in lck were much more violent than lpl, and they began to blast the official blogs of skt and ssg.
As a result, the official blogs of skt and ssg had to apologize.
Lck netizens put their final hopes on lz, after all, they are the Summer Championship team.
Although it is the first time to participate in the World Championship, there are many people who participated in the competition for the first time and won the championship.
skt of s3, cp of s5...
In fact, SSW in S4 is not the first time to enter the World Championship. IP and others have already been there in S3, but were eliminated.
Therefore, just because lz’s top, middle and jungler have not entered the World Championship, it does not mean that they must not perform well.
On the contrary, the two veterans Xuan Ming in the bottom lane are the anchors of the team. After all, they have rich experience in the world championship and can help their teammates.
The three newcomers in the upper, middle and jungle are full of energy, and the bottom duo is the most stable part of the team.
The upper limit of lz is actually very impressive.
Especially since they had just defeated SKT and won the league championship, this was a time when they were in high spirits.
The team members are also at their most confident moment. At this time, it is easiest to make great progress.
The next day, the rng game started first.
Their opponent is g2.
g2 is a veteran European team that has won many championships.
This summer, they were also the champions and entered the World Championship as the No. 1 seed.
However, before the game started, there was a problem with the entire g2 team.
Mid laner Perkz, who was sitting at the game, suddenly burst into tears.
This scene directly made the audience feel a little inexplicable and strange.
It's understandable to cry after losing a game, but the game hasn't even started yet, why are you crying first?
Is it possible to cry in advance?
Seeing this, Guan Zeyuan explained to the audience that this World Championship will be the last year for g2.
Because g2 announced its reorganization, it means that perkz and his teammates will be fighting side by side for the last time!
As a happy gamer, perkz finds it very difficult to accept this reality.
After all, their journey as a team has been quite difficult. They have won the league championship in spring and summer, and have also been to SI and S games.
But now, the result of the S competition is undecided, and the team announced its reorganization...
This is also a huge blow to the players who are playing the game.
After Guan Zeyuan's explanation, everyone understood the reason why Perkz was crying.
The barrage praised Perkz crazily for his love and justice.
Nowadays, players on many teams are just colleagues, not on good terms personally, and may even be enemies.
It's rare to cry when you can't bear to leave your teammates, and pekrz's actions are very popular.
The result of the game was not beyond everyone's expectations, g2 was indeed defeated by rng.
Any player who received such news before the game would probably not be able to maintain his condition.
It can be said that g2’s World Championship journey is almost over.
CP also faced a challenge, they played wild card ga.
The game ended in 21 minutes without any surprises.
Then came the game between we and lz.
This is also the most watched game today.
Mainly, the strength gap between g2 and ga is relatively large compared to rng and cp, so everyone has no suspense about the result.
When they think there is no suspense in the game, they will not be so curious and concerned.
It can only be said that the final result was no surprise. g defeated its opponents, won two consecutive victories, and led the standings.
We and lz are relatively equal opponents.
The audience of lpl are cheering for us and hope they can win.
In this case, all three LPL teams defeated the LCK team.
However, we still lost to lz and lost the game.
Khan's performance in the top lane was very good, and Xuan Ming and his two brothers were very stable, lz won the opponent steadily.
Speaking of which, Khan is a player who came out of WE's youth training, and the two sides are quite close.
When S7's We selected the top laner for the second team, both Kehan and 957 were among the candidates.
After consideration, the coaching staff believes that 957 is more suitable for us.
Firstly, because of his Chinese identity, it is easier to communicate, and 957 has a strong ability to withstand pressure and is considered a blue-collar player with both offensive and defensive abilities.
Khan's nationality is not an advantage. After selecting him, the bottom lane support will have to be replaced by a Chinese, which is not conducive to the communication of the bottom lane duo.
After all, ystic is Korean, and it is easier for him and Han Yuan to cooperate.
The bottom lane is different from other lanes, and the coordination of the duo is crucial.
Khan is more aggressive than 957, but his ability to withstand pressure is weaker.
As far as we are concerned, they currently focus on the mid and bottom lane, and the top lane is often responsible for starting teams and resisting pressure.
All in all, what they need is a blue-collar top laner, not a resource-hungry top laner like theshy.
In this comparison, 957 is naturally more in line with our needs.
So 957 was promoted to the first team, and khan continued to stay in lspl.
As a result, Khan lost the opportunity to start the LPL, and he continued to guard the water cooler for a year!
He is the first batch of Han Yuan, who came to LPL early, but has never been on the stage of LPL.
The only two opportunities we had were against LPL teams in bubble matches, but we lost both times and had no choice but to return to LPL.
The hardest time was when I didn't even have to play training matches.
He could only play ranked games silently. At this time, lz had just been formed, and khan was also attracted by it and randomly joined lz.
Finally returned to lck development.
Unexpectedly, this decision directly changed the trajectory of Kahn's career.
He single-handedly killed SB as soon as he debuted. He is considered the number one top laner in LCK!
Many people thought it was luck, but then khan started his performance.
lz's record has been improving all the way, and he finally won the lck summer championship, and he also won fvp.
In just his first season in LCK, he blossomed.
Because of khan, we were laughed at crazily.
Such a fierce player, why don't you let him play in the game and keep him in lspl?
However, due to the outstanding performance of 957, it cannot be said that we made the wrong choice.
The match between we and lz was also jokingly called by netizens the duel between the two top laners of we.
It's just a pity that we's strength is not as good as lz's after all.
After lz defeated we, they became the first in Group B, with a score of 2-0.
This is also the first loss since the start of the lpl.
Under normal circumstances, no one would blame WE for not playing well. After all, lz is the No. 1 seed, and WE is the LPL's No. 3 seed.
The order of seeds can also indicate the strength of the team to a certain extent.
It's just that G played too well, which makes WE very weak, and many people are no longer optimistic that WE can go further in this world championship.
The upper limit is the top four, and the lower limit is the top 16. This is how netizens estimate our results in this world championship.
In the next game, lz showed great strength, and top laner khan also used a number of different top lane heroes, performing a dominant performance!
He even took out the dog head and slaughtered his opponent!
lz directly showed the potential of a championship team!
They won every battle against their opponents and displayed extremely exaggerated suppression. Many people felt that lz would be a strong opponent in this lpl.
And they are also the most powerful stumbling block on the way for CP to win the championship!
After a few days of competition, cp faced its last opponent in the first round of the group stage, c9.
