Abed's laning details are too good, and his jumping knife and jumping knife are absolutely no match for him.
Right now Dota only has 4 servers.
Chinese server, Southeast Asia, American server, European server.
How exaggerated the EG team's personal abilities are, just compare it to Dream and look at their ladder rankings.
EG team:
Position 1 Arteezy, US server ladder [Rank: 1]
Position 2 Abed, Southeast Asia ladder [Rank: 1]
No. 3 Ramze666, European server ladder [Rank: 17]
Position 4 Cr1t, US server ladder [Rank: 2]
Position 5 Fly, US server ladder [Rank: 24]
…
Among these 5 people, the weakest Fly ladder is 24th.
Ranked first and second in the American server ladder, and ranked first in the Southeast Asian server ladder.
As for Dream...
The rankings of the national server from No. 1 to No. 5 are 99th, 215th, 65th, 42nd, and 86th respectively.
In contrast to this personal ability.
There is a huge disadvantage in laning.
"Can't push anymore."
"If you push it any further it will collapse."
Gao Ran glanced at the economic gap between the two sides and frowned a little.
For Dream, they are not only missing an absolute core player, but also a commanding player.
Sure enough, Dream's decision-making on the field made a series of mistakes in Gao Ran's opinion!
Directly defeated by EG defending the tower, the team was wiped out!
Then EG opened the fog! Directly push back in the middle, killing Dream's players continuously!
Without a key core, Dream played completely disorganized.
In the first set, the EG team scored a score of 24-1...
Won the first game in 19 minutes.
"This is too tragic."
Lao Chen also felt that it was a bit exaggerated and he really had no power to fight back.
Is the gap that big?
"The house manager will block the barrages with the rhythm of jumping knives and jumping knives."
"Don't lift the lockdown for 360 days."
Gao Ran saw someone on the barrage saying that jumping knives were bad and said so directly.
Others are not afraid of being called upon to take Gao Ran's place in times of crisis, and there isn't much Gao Ran can do.
But from a game perspective, it's really hurtful if you can't beat the opponent in the middle.
Gao Ran does not deny this. The mid lane laning level of Tiao Dao’s seniors is definitely not as good as the level at Ti6 five years ago, and the mid lane level of Tiao Dao’s mid laner at Ti6 was not that strong at that time.
The strength lies in the pull of rhythm and team battles.
There is a huge gap between the version 5 years ago and the current version.
Now if you can't beat the lane in the middle, the impact will be very big.
"In fact, I didn't play well on the wing either."
"Actually, EG's position 4 is often used. Dream can definitely play more aggressively in the bottom lane."
Gao Ran also said in the live broadcast room.
Cr1t plays a relatively agile 4th position hero, who often helps open up the situation in the middle lane and does not always protect the low lane.
Dream also had some problems playing it himself.
Being slaughtered like this in the first set also made everyone see the reality clearly.
High energy is absolutely indispensable for this team.
Just like an NBA team, whether it is the Lakers, Celtics, Cavaliers or Warriors, the main core of the game is not there. Without the support of the core, the role players cannot exert their own strength. This is the reason.
It's hard to imagine what the Lakers without Kobe and the Cavaliers without James could do.
EG didn't know this team very well at first, but after playing a game, they looked at each other.
It’s a rookie team, of course.
The second set was even more fierce!
Dream knocked out GG again after resisting for 25 minutes.
Fell into the loser's bracket 0-2.
They will face the loser of Liquid and Fnatic.
"Not a good fight."
“Maybe he’s not very adaptable to EG’s rhythm.”
Gao Ran said seriously in the live broadcast room that after this game, Gao Ran was not in a hurry to watch other games, but re-watched the videos of these two sets.
Then I typed up my understanding and sent it to my teammates.
They played very compactly, but their thinking was not very clear.
Unlike when Gao Ran was here, the rhythm and style were very clear.
Jumping Knife and Jumping Knife are all team-based mid lane heroes, and Gao Ran also suggested that they choose Shadow Demon to match up with a big brother hero.
Shadow Fiend is a hero that can be played in any situation, and he has many outfit ideas.
But it’s a bit of a test of personal ability.
The game took a bit long this day, but I was not very sleepy due to the high burn.
First, it was EG versus Liquid in the upper bracket, and EG also successfully defeated their opponent 2-0.
Dream once again appeared to face Fnatic, a Southeast Asian powerhouse.
If we lose this game again, we will go to the loser group in the Dream knockout round.
But it’s true that with Dream’s current strength, it’s a bit difficult to break into the winner’s bracket.
In this game, Dream obviously adjusted his thinking and used a relatively normal rhythm to play against the opponent.
Without Gao Ran, they felt that they could not grasp the rhythm of this advancement.
I still chose a relatively solid team battle lineup.
It’s just that the disadvantage road was penetrated by Sanbing’s woodcutter...
One man can shut the door and ten thousand men can't open it.
Although Dream fought back several waves, he was still defeated by the Roshan group. After being broken in 3 lanes, Dream played GG!
There's nothing you can do about the high-burning game, Dream played pretty well in this game.
But the woodcutter on the opposite side is really too fat.
This hero is indeed a bit difficult to target. The opponent has completely eliminated r's unique skills, leaving only the Monkey King for r to choose from.
Other C-position heroes are also difficult to fight.
Fnatic’s lineup is also strong online, and their individual abilities are also very strong.
Only by actually fighting against these world's top players can you know that there is really no weak team.
Trailing 0 to 1.
In the second set, Dream finally showed off its most unique system!
Black bow system.
Big and small naga.
Medusa is a hero that Dream basically doesn't play when Gao Ran is around, but Medusa who jumps between knives and knives is very powerful.
This last move of Medusa also caught the opponent off guard.
Medusa is not very afraid of fire cats online.
Just push the lane and jungle to ensure your own development.
Dream also performed quite well with this system.
"This is a style of play that weakens personal abilities."
Gao Ran has no scruples, after all, it is his own team.
This style of play is all about mastering the big rhythm.
Old players like Dream can still play Dota, but their personal abilities are indeed not as good as players from strong teams.
"I don't think there is much chance in this game. Xiao Hei's economy is so miserable."
Lao Chen also said after seeing the finances of the Dream brothers.
Gao Ran quickly shook his head and said:
"No no no."
"Medusa's development is okay."
"Xiao Hei's economy in this lineup is not as important as Medusa's economy."
"It's hard to perform even with Fire Cat Xiao Hei, and as a hero, Xiao Hei, the output he can produce depends entirely on the output environment, and the equipment is also designed to increase the output environment."
Gao Ran saw the opportunity to win this set.
"The awareness of jumping knife is really good."
Gao Ran also praised that his personal ability of jumping knife and jumping knife is average, but his consciousness is very good.
Medusa never died once, and her equipment is constantly updated!
The situation finally turned around in the 38th minute!
After Medusa's Ice Eye, Dream protected Medusa and actually won the key team battle!
"Is it possible that we are about to win our first victory?!"
