It’s quite outrageous to say that the team with the most pentakills in the LPL this year happens to be V5.
No, Niu Bao has only played a few games after joining V5, and he scored a five-kill.
Although the opponent is slightly weak, as a newcomer, being able to get five kills on the world stage is very valuable, but why not increase the number of fans?
"To be honest, Wolong's vision is still vicious, and he actually dug such a treasure from the LCK secondary league!"
"This top laner is really good. His operation is top-notch and he can withstand pressure. Except for the occasional lack of awareness of gank prevention."
"Niu Bao, mommy loves you!"
"Suddenly I remembered that V5's roster also included Theshy who was out due to injury, plus Wolong, it was so luxurious!"
"The Mavericks are a bit ignorant. Wolong hasn't even gotten the five kills yet, but he actually got it first. I'm afraid he will be traded out next season!"
"After this game, Nuguri's worth will increase several times, right?"
"How many teams in the LPL are eager for V5 to sell Niu Bao. As long as this newcomer works hard, he will be the next Theshy."
"It's a pity that he is a foreign aid, otherwise it would be good to give him to RNG. Letme just makes do as a tank. The offensive top laner is really weird."
More and more viewers in the live broadcast room began to discuss V5’s new top laner.
Facts have proved that the bigger the stage, the greater the opportunity. Those who can seize the opportunity can become famous all over the world in one fell swoop!
After the game, Niu Bao humbly thanked his teammates, Zhuge Liang and other members of the coaching staff, and also spent his own money to buy a large bag of drinks from the vending machine.
Although Niu Bao was excited, he did not get carried away because of this. He knew very well that this five-kill was obtained only after the care of the entire team. At present, he still needs to learn and improve before he can stand alone.
……
After the first day of the group stage, LPL had 4 wins from 5 games, LCK had 2 wins from 4 games, and LMS had 1 win from 5 games.
After a slow start, LPL overtook the LCK in a corner and temporarily overtook the LCK.
Many fans have seen some glimmers of hope. Although SKT is strong this year, there is a certain gap between other LCK teams and SKT.
As far as the competition on the first day is concerned, the strength of KZ and AFS is far from reaching the level where it is difficult for LPL teams to compete.
As long as the troops are arranged properly, LPL may not be unable to win the LCK!
There is a saying that GRF, the dark horse of LCK, is not qualified to participate in the intercontinental competition. It really relieves the LPL a little pressure and increases the chance of winning.
The next day, the group stage continues.
The fateful showdown between RNG and SKT has become the highlight.
However, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but frowned after watching the BP session, feeling that RNG was about to suffer another disaster.
After the end of MSI, several versions have been changed, especially a few swing heroes, which can be said to be the focus of the current version of BP.
It's a pity that RNG's version adaptation is far inferior to SKT!
First of all, Uzi basically doesn’t play bottom lane, and his choice is still a traditional shooter.
Secondly, RNG relies heavily on Xiangguo's early rhythm. Once Uzi is allowed to take the wild core in the middle of Xia, Xiangguo's ability to do things after selecting a tool player will be limited. Who should RNG use to support the early and mid-term rhythm?
Furthermore, Letme can play a warrior top laner, but his proficiency is slightly lower than that of a tank top laner. Facing the world's top top laner like Smeb, it is undoubtedly unreasonable to use short attacks to gain long range.
In other words, the version bonuses that RNG can enjoy are limited, but it is more constrained.
Finally, it is also the most fatal point in Zhuge Liang's opinion.
After experiencing the failure of MSI and losing to FW at the beginning of the intercontinental competition, RNG seemed a bit shaken and did not dare to use the most confident lineup.
At first glance, RNG’s casting no longer delays the late stages, but increases initiative in the early and mid-term.
After careful analysis, we can find that the lineup chosen by RNG is too ideal, difficult to coordinate in actual operation, and has a low fault tolerance rate.
On the other hand, Zhuge Liang admires the BP that kkoma did for SKT.
The top lane single leads the cast, the jungler cooperates with the mid laner to support roaming, and the bottom lane resists pressure and initiates team fights. The positioning is clear and the tactical intention is clear at a glance.
At the beginning of the game, RNG relied on the performance of Xiang Guo to gain a slight advantage.
But SKT's midfielder and jungler quickly counterattacked, first killing the incense pot.
RNG's rhythm was slow, but SKT succeeded repeatedly, and the initiative on the court changed hands.
After that, SKT defeated RNG with a textbook four-to-one score!
"It's been so many years, but I still can't deal with LCK's single band, which makes the blood pressure of labor and management soar!"
"I know SKT is not easy to play, so losing is normal, but how about we play a good game anyway?"
"Could it be that the four-and-one points are really the nemesis of the four-guarantee-one?"
"Xiangguo had such a good early rhythm, but was suddenly defeated by the opponent's midfielder. May I ask what our mid laner is doing?"
"A pure bastard on the road, he can't even use a TP. The puppy tried his best."
After RNG lost, the LPL's lead over the LCK was reduced to just one win.
Assuming that LPL and LCK win all subsequent games against the LMS division, the key battle to determine the group stage ranking will fall on the last game.
The showdown between GenG and IG!
……
After that, KZ easily defeated GRX, GenG defeated M17, and EDG abused MAD.
The LMS division has really been reduced to nothing. If FW hadn’t eaten RNG yesterday, it would have lost a game now.
It is obviously an intercontinental competition with three divisions, but the LMS division looks like a third party that should not exist.
It is said that the commentator from Wanwan burst into tears at the scene, crying very sadly.
Many enthusiastic people from mainland China have gone to Wanwan’s underworld forum to leave messages, comforting Wanwan players not to be too sad.
After all, after this year’s World Championship, the LMS division will most likely be disbanded, and people will cry even more then.
In the last game of the group stage, GenG faced IG.
If GenG wins, LPL and LCK will have the same points, and the two sides will play an extra game.
The loser will play a knockout round with LMS first, and the winner will advance directly to the finals.
If IG wins, LPL will immediately lock in the first place in the group stage and wait for the winner of LMS and LCK.
The situation of GenG this year is not ideal, largely due to the incompatibility of the version.
Samsung is a very LCK-style operation team. In this version where the pace is accelerating and the level of bloodshed is increasing, Samsung often falls into headwinds in the early stages.
Not only that, the Samsung players are obviously not as good as they were at last year’s World Championship, and they feel like their energy has dissipated.
To a certain extent, IG’s style is quite restrained against GenG.
The result was as expected. IG fought wildly from the beginning of the game, and GenG lost all rhythm.
After fighting, GenG lost a lot of momentum. Three people from IG chased five people away, and they didn't even have the courage to turn around and fight back.
The more IG fights, the smoother it gets. The posture of the sword demon descends to the earth, Ning Wang's mid-level team battle opens up the ruler, the broiler single-kills the crown in the lane, and Ah Shui's classic anti-tower.
Baolan, oh oh oh, I feel sorry for Xiaobao being shown off by CoreJJ!
In thirty-six minutes of game time, IG won the game and contributed a key point to LPL.
At the end of the group stage, LPL ranked first and went straight to the finals.
