Chapter 271 Champion Skin, 4396!
The LPL playoffs are in full swing.
JDG, which had the best record among e-commerce teams last year and was only one step away from entering the World Championship, overturned WE and counterattacked RNG, and once again defeated the regular season rankings with a 3-2 record. The little Phoenix FPX created a miracle of Black Eight that everyone talks about.
However.
Entering the finals and facing the pinnacle IG, JDG had no ability to let the miracle continue.
This year's Spring Split, JDG mainly relied on top laner Zoom to win. Although Zoom's statistics in the regular season were second only to Theshy, the 'second' here means the same as Theshy's second best to Ye Tian last year.
Looks like a close second.
In fact, there is still a level in the middle.
It is no exaggeration to say that the spring finals are Theshy's personal performance.
Zoom was beaten back by Theshy in the same way, no matter whether he used attack to attack or used late-stage hero development. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a comprehensive encirclement.
The score was settled at 3-0 without any doubt.
All members of IG gathered in the center of the stage and held the Silver Dragon Cup representing the LPL championship.
Tengjing’s marketing strategy is to lift Ye Tian up to heaven and support IG and RNG to compete on the ground. I was originally worried that IG would not have a championship and lacked sufficient confidence. Seeing that IG won its first championship, a series of publicity immediately Followed.
Major player gathering places are full of messages such as 'IG has demonstrated its dominance in just three games', 'As an LPL audience, my scalp is numb watching my own team's games', 'IG has shown no trace of its dominance'. No suspense double crushing on individual and team level' and so on.
IG defeated KT and AFS last year and joined EDG in the finals. It has not faded much. They also played a dominant performance in the spring finals. People can't help but look forward to the dominance of the LPL division.
Launched with MSI version.
EDG’s second championship skin meets fans around the world.
The theme of this skin is [Brilliant Silver Dragon]. The background is an intertwined tone of silver and blue, which combines Chinese armor, dragon scales, crown and other elements.
Click to open the interface.
Oncoming is a silver dragon soaring from the sky.
When the dragon head comes to the center of the screen, he opens his mouth and spits out a mouthful of holy flames, and the EDG champion skin interface unfolds.
First up is Ray’s Gnar.
Compared with the original image of the initial shape, Silver Dragonnar put on armor and turned into a little white-haired beast. The boomerang was changed from bone to a material that combines metal and technology. The E skill was implemented. Leaving behind the EDG team logo, after the transformation, R [Naaaaaah——] will bring up the shadow of the silver dragon when he waves his claws, and the limbs of the angry beast are also covered with obvious dragon scales.
Meiko’s Thresh is the only skin without dragon scale elements. The bone armor is all replaced by silvery steel. The soul-drawing lamp is a dragon ball swimming with light, and the chain is connected to death. The scythe turns into a dragon's claw.
Exquisite appearance.
The special effects are even more sincere.
The Q skill comes with a visual effect of breaking through the clouds when it reaches forward. W and E are normal fitting themes. The five silver walls erected in R [Netherworld Prison] have the back of a swimming dragon emerging, which is very powerful. Countless times.
[Damn, this Thresh]
[Compared with Silver Dragon, Champion Warden is just a new recruit]
[The supports are so handsome, the others The skin is not allowed to go to heaven? 】
The audience let out a series of exclamations.
Behind Thresh is the cannon that Iboy chose. Since the 'How to Train Your Dragon' skin was released in 2015, the cannon can't do crazy damage with the silver baby dragon like Iboy expected, so it was changed to A thick and powerful silver dragon cannon.
E [Explosion Spark] There is a silver dragon surrounding the head. When crushed, the silver dragon turns red and spits flames towards the target below.
R [Destruction Shot] is a dragon-headed shell that is half virtual and half real. When it hits, it comes with a special effect of swallowing the target hero. Even if it cannot make the corpse disappear, it is still of very exaggerated quality. It can be said that the designer cannot Let Xiao Pao compromise with the silver baby dragon.
It is foreseeable that there must be a large number of players who use R to send their opponents away in order to see this devouring effect, and are angrily pushed and pushed by their teammates.
Syndra's heroic image has been changed to a female warrior wearing silver armor, Q is in the form of a dragon ball, W has the EDG team logo, and R [Energy Pour] comes with a dragon roar. Overall, it is quite satisfactory, similar to the quality of Gnar.
The rock bird is also average. After all, giving too many special effects to the rock bird will make it seem overwhelming. If you push down the special effects, it will be mediocre now. There are basically no highlights except passively stepping on the dragon's back and sneaking. Simply make up the numbers within the theme.
This differential treatment did not cause too many ripples.
Scout has always been considered a bastard and the least important member of the championship team. This year, he was almost caught by Ning with Syndra, if it weren't for Ye Tian and Karsa+Meiko who continuously targeted Rookie. , Scout might become the sixth man.
Karsa has fewer fans, and the few protests that occasionally pop up are quickly drowned out.
Poor quality?
Treated differently?
The quality of the two skins of Syndra and Rock Bird is on the same level as Gnar, and they are better than the champion skins in S1-S6!
“Come on, come on, it’s Brother Tian’s championship skin!”
The live broadcast of Attitude is gaining popularity: “Everyone knows that the skin chosen by Brother Tian is Dao Mei. Let’s take a look at what the designer has done. What does it look like...oh, this look is okay!”
The original painting of Dao Mei was taken from an elevated angle on the lower right side. A dancer in light armor with dragon scales can be seen pointing one finger to the sky and the other to the ground. Such a classic shape reminds many players of the saying that 'I am the only one in the sky and on the earth'.
The six blades were changed from the original fragment shape to a translucent wide blade whose system was expanded several times. The hollow area of the wide blade was entwined with a silver dragon, hanging behind it like a halo, and the visual effect was extremely gorgeous.
The facial expressions are also very finely sculpted. Not only does Qi Fen resemble Ye Tian, but he also depicts the details of looking down at the audience, which perfectly matches the movements.
【Handsome】
【This is Brother Tian himself】
[Look at the special effects, look at the special effects]
The audience urged.
"Okay, let's watch the special effects together."
The posture opens the skin display according to the audience's request.
Compared with the original painting, the real scene in the game is even cooler. The blade is condensed with a constantly flowing halo. Q [Blade Impact] has dragon-shaped energy covering the whole body, and there are also flashes of light on the path. Starburst and tone-on-tone tail flame.
W [Dance of Distance Breaking] is a silver dragon protecting the body, and then stabs out six flying blades.
E【Double Blades】are two silver dragons crossing each other, and every corner is polished meticulously.
When R [Vanguard Blade] hits, a small hanging dragon will appear under the target. The exploded barrier is similar to Thresh R, but much more refined. It is equivalent to the difference between a finished painting and a simple drawing. .
The independent return to the city is naturally indispensable.
Last year, Qing Gangying ascended the throne step by step. This year, the sword girl did not repeat this. Instead, she gathered all her strength to control the blade to split the dark clouds, open a radiant gap, and gradually ascend in the form of ascension. Lift off.
[Being king last year, ascending to heaven this year]
[Damn, ascending to heaven is okay]
[I laughed to death]
[But to be honest, the design of ascending is really awesome Not bad, Brother Tian’s performance in the World Championships in the past two years is really like a god descending from heaven】
【'God comes down from heaven' to earth】
[Thresh cannons are of good quality, Brother Tian is the best, but Rockbird and Syndra are average. I’m confused whether to buy the full set]
[Has the director’s skin not been shown yet? This year the factory director can only choose the blind monk, right? 】
“You can only choose the blind monk.” I remember the attitude very clearly: “The factory director played once in the group stage. That time he used the blind monk. According to the regulations, he cannot choose other heroes... Hey, I Damn it! Is it really 4396?”
The director’s skin is absolutely impeccable in terms of appearance and special effects.
Q [Tian Yin Bo] launches a silver dragon, and R [Raptor Swing Tail] is surrounded by silver dragons when it spins and kicks. Compared with the 'Descendant of the Dragon' that can only be obtained by lottery, this time the champion blind monk is the real dragon.
However.
When we got back to the city, something was wrong.
The action is based on Chinese Kung Fu, there is nothing to criticize, but halfway through the reading of the return to the city, two numbers 4 and 3 appeared on the blind monk's head, which looked like a countdown. The next thing that popped up was not [2] but [2]. It is【9】.
The fourth one is...【6】!
4396!
Although the blind monk used the Shenglong Fist to smash the numbers into pieces at the end, which represented that the factory director broke the curse and won his own world championship, no one in the audience cared about breaking this action in the end. Saw the number 4396!
【6ah! 】
【It’s 7777777, you fake fan】
6◇9◇书◇
[It was said before that the factory director’s champion skin would use 4396, but it turned out to be true]
[Awesome]
[A roundhouse kick is impossible, it is impossible to do a roundhouse kick in this life, R I don’t know how to dodge. I rely on my W to mix in assists and protect my KDA. Everyone in the finals is talented, and they know how to move, and there are many tricks. Wow, I really like playing in the finals! 】
[Don’t be embarrassed, the first person to use R to flash in the professional league is the factory director]
[Who doesn’t know that the first one is the factory director? The problem is that the factory director is now Can you still use it? 】
[It’s really hard not to buy the whole set now, the ancestor of Seven is awesome! 】
The barrage was extremely enthusiastic.
The seven champion skins, Sword Girl, Blind Sin, Cannon, and Thresh are all worth buying. In this way, buying four of them individually is almost the same as buying the full set at a discount. Most players buy the full set of champion skins. I bought the skin and used the champion skin to rank up while watching IG’s games.
May 15th.
The 2019MSI group stage has come to an end.
The IG team's 9-1 qualifying performance and 16 minutes and 13 seconds of pushing SKT's base quickly, coupled with the famous saying that "any dog can win in the jungle" further strengthened the confidence of the LPL audience.
“Congratulations to IG for advancing as the first in the group!”
Zeyuan’s voice seemed to be filled with magic: “Since the MSI competition format was changed to a double round-robin group in 2016, IG is the first A team that has won nine consecutive games in the group stage, let’s look forward to their performance in the knockout rounds!”
“We can’t underestimate SKT,” Wang Duoduo said. Thing: "During the winter transfer period last year, the SKT team underwent a drastic reorganization and won the spring championship with only Faker retained as an old player. The poor initial performance in the group stage should be due to a running-in problem. After 3-3, SKT proved with a wave of four consecutive victories that they are still an opponent that cannot be underestimated.”
Wang Duoduo’s words did not resonate much.
In the eyes of the vast majority of viewers, the official commentary was just giving the Triple Crown team some face from a neutral perspective.
——Two years ago, Ye Tian single-handedly knocked down the all-champion SKT into the abyss. In last year’s World Finals, he didn’t even have SKT’s share. This year, he just made up for it casually. With a team, why compete with the IG team that has been promoted to the new king of LPL? !
Unthinkable.
Before SKT could take action, IG lost to North American TL, who was not favored by everyone, in the semifinals.
What’s even more exaggerated is that IG’s BO5 this time did not overturn in a hard battle, but fell behind by a big score of 1-3!
The whole world, including North American TL themselves, can't believe this result.
What players are North American TL made up of?
The top laner is Impact, who is about to die, the mid laner is Jian Huang, who has played various food-making operations, the AD is Doublelift, who became the king thanks to the "no tiger in the mountain" in the North American division, and the jungler Xmithie The age is even as high as 28 years old...except for CoreJJ, who is in the auxiliary position, he does not have the strength of the world's strongest in any point.
Even so, IG was still fooled.
While the audience was quarreling over why IG lost to TL, pointing the question at the coach and players who performed poorly on the field, SKT overturned to G2 again.
The MSI showdown has turned into a battle between European and North American teams!
Before the finals even started, European and American audiences and various media were in carnival mode.
From the perspective of LPL, Korea has been suffering for a long time, and from the perspective of Europe and North America, the Asian teams have been suffering for a long time. First, SKT and Samsung jointly monopolized the world championship, and then Ye Tianheng Kong Deshi treats other teams as humans and machines. Europe and North America bear the title of the two mainstream competition regions and are not even qualified to be foils. This naturally creates an atmosphere of common hatred and hatred.
May 19th.
The MSI finals begin.
The G2 team from Europe swept North American TL with a score of 3-0 and reached the top of the world.
For horizontal comparison, the IG team lost to TL 1-3. SKT fought hard until the fifth game before being overturned by G2's strong control + Pike kill + Lissandra's passive AOE blast. LPL was overturned in the fifth game. The results at this MSI could not even reach the second place in the world in the Dark Ages, and they directly became the fourth division!
[BP is random, plays rubbish, and has no coordination. IG like this is really not qualified to enter the MSI finals]
[Baolan’s halberd cannot beat Braum with a bull head, and can’t beat Braum with Braum. Niutou, I can only say that there is a gap in the runner-up support]
[After receiving Q Dirty Dancing, you didn’t give it away? No broiler delivered? Both C's are sleepwalking, starting to blame the support? 】
[I really don’t know what IG is playing. It took RNG a year to win the championship before it swelled. IG won a spring championship. BO1 pushed SKT once and it swelled. Brother Tian’s 1557 before was not faster than their 1613? ]
[If you don’t respect your opponents, yourself, or your fans, don’t buy a plane ticket and come back honestly.]
[Don’t respect this or that if you lose the game. , the premise of disrespect is that you are stronger. Are RNG and IG really stronger than G2 and TL? Even if you are not careless and fight with all your strength, you may not be able to win, right? 】
[The first division is just an illusion brought by Brother Tian. Without Brother Tian, even if IG could win the championship last year, LPL would just have a champion]
After discussion, the audience gradually understood A consensus was reached.
Is the LPL division strong?
Joke!
It was Ye Tian who was the most powerful person in the world and dragged the LPL division up. The other teams simply did not have the strength to support the ‘First Division’ sign!
July 7th at 4pm.
The Asian Competition officially begins in Seoul, South Korea, in the finals.
Except for FPX's mid laner Pan Sen who fought for a point with one move, IG, JDG, and TES had almost no ability to resist. Except for JDG, which was delayed for 30 minutes, IG and TES were both pushed for 26 minutes. .
There is no shame in being defeated.
Being beaten 3-1 is not necessarily a shame.
But facing the LCK team, which is famous for its operation and late team battles, the so-called strong teams in the top four of the LPL Spring Split cannot sustain the early and mid-term. They are not even worthy of mentioning the word shame. It is a complete joke. !
Complete IG, which had high hopes, failed to defeat KZ, which was made of scrap metal, and the expectations of countless LPL fans sank to the bottom. If it weren't for Ye Tian sitting behind him, LPL fans would have no hope of defeating KZ. There is not even the slightest confidence in the World Finals two months later.
However.
On August 3, bad news came out.
Based on the current points calculation, EDG will not be able to enter the playoffs even if they get a complete victory in the next games!
This is not only EDG's worst result since the team was founded, but it also means that Ye Tian, a great player, may not come out again.
——Although the terms of the contract have not been announced, through various rumors and the default of no response from both parties, everyone knows that Ye Tian signed a binding contract with EDG and cannot play with other teams... …
