Chapter 143: Forehand and backhand teaching, murder and heartbreaking!
"Congratulations to EDG!" He remembered that he was not at all disappointed because the losing team was his former team Flash Wolves. He used all his strength to cheer for the winner; "This game was won cleanly, at the 26-minute mark. It’s over!”
"The Flash Wolves have been trying to use the strengths of their lineup to break through EDG's defense, but they have achieved nothing!"
Guan Zeyuangan summarized: "EDG's tactical decisions in all lanes are all watertight. Even Casa, who has always been known as the anti-crouching king in the group stage, can't break the game!"
"That's right!" I remember immediately echoing: "EDG's offensive rhythm is not fierce this time, and the main attack is steady!"
He smiled and glanced at the key information he had memorized during the game, "The several waves of proactive attacks targeted the opponent's weak areas of personnel deployment!"
Casa's sense of smell in the jungle is indeed keen, but he always has to focus on the analysis of existing information and then speculate, and finally get the approximate position of the factory director, and then analyze whether to launch an attack based on the online situation, etc.
A method like EDG's that uses teleportation as an offensive signal is completely beyond Kasa's ability.
It's not like he had a mind-reading ability, so he had no idea when Li Mufan planned to hand over the teleportation.
Casa stood up from his seat with a look of helplessness. The first game of BO5 had little impact on the final result of the game, but what frightened him was that EDG had already studied it thoroughly!
Every time he counter-crouched, he gained nothing, and as soon as he left the line, his opponent would immediately launch a violent attack!
Even later in the game, when Casa, who was a little mentally unbalanced due to the lineup, began to change from squatting to taking the initiative to attack, he fell into the traps laid out by EDG and suffered heavy losses.
This kind of scene where the team's tactics and players' mentality are completely grasped is something Casa has only seen in the team of kings, SKT.
Although Flash Wolves have defeated their opponents many times in BO1, SKT is completely unable to parry in BO5!
As a party involved, Casa can say without exaggeration that the final has basically been decided to be a battle between EDG and SKT!
On the other side, everyone in EDG who returned to the lounge was undoubtedly applauded and praised by the people behind them!
"Good fight, brothers!" Ai Luoli collapsed on the chair, and EDG was killing randomly on the court, which meant that he, the substitute, had no chance to play.
But Ai Luoli didn't mind at all, with a sincere smile on her face: "Hurry up and get off work! Why don't you take your brothers to the finals?"
"Looking at the first set as a whole," Nofe also learned to pop the champagne at halftime: "From the perspective of BP, tactics, laning conditions, and mid-term operations, there is a clear gap between the Flash Wolves and us."
The head coach pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said seriously: "In my opinion, if they don't have any big moves in their second hand, the probability of three to zero is very high!"
As the saying goes, once you gain momentum, you will fall again. Flash Wolves were the first to get all the offensive heroes in order to be the first to charge forward and build up the momentum of the team!
Steak's idea is absolutely correct. The only chance for a weak team to beat a strong team is to overwhelm the opponent in terms of player status and momentum.
You can't place your hopes on a strong team with good operations, right?
It's a pity that Steak didn't expect that EDG would study them so thoroughly!
Yesterday, the Bay Forum, where half of the people were optimistic about Flash Wolves, was now wailing.
[There is no reason why our LMS wants to enter the playoffs. This loss is like a wild card! 】
[No-prize guessing session, how many solo kills has this top laner in our universe, Mimi Egg, given? 】
[This is the strength of the only team in the five major divisions to win the Spring Championship! Please cheer for our LMS! 】
[It is recommended that LMS be classified as a wild card, so that if you lose the game, you can comfort yourself that you cannot beat the regular division]
[Casa’s wine barrel smells like a factory. Did he have any effect at all? 】
[It’s embarrassing, this is the factory director who made the Wolf King into a jungle jungler. I won’t say it anymore, I went to be a fan of EDG this year]
The ten-minute rest and adjustment time ended quickly, and everyone once again took to the center stage of the crowded stadium.
Flash Wolves head coach Steak followed the players. Seeing the opposing EDG players walking up to their seats with ease, the opposing head coach Nofe also seemed to look over to him.
Steak somehow managed to break out in a cold sweat in this venue where the air conditioning was on full blast.
He reached out and loosened the tie around his neck, finally feeling relieved.
"I also had a problem in the last game. The BP was too extreme, which put too much offensive pressure on you!" Steak reflected on himself, "It doesn't matter. We have a blue side BP advantage in this game. I will try my best to take the front A lineup that can play in the mid- to late-game, let’s try to even the score!”
The steak is what it says it is.
In fact, the reason why Flash Wolves are lagging behind G2, EDG, SKT and other teams in terms of lane transition operations and late-stage team battles is not the problem with the players.
From the perspective of Steak's professional coaching, the talent and hard work of these players are enough to rank among the first-tier players in major leagues.
The key is that the Flash Wolves' competition area is not competitive enough to stimulate the players' potential; another important point is that the Flash Wolves' training team is really bad.
I remember that after leaving, the Flash Wolves even eliminated the position of data analyst. Apart from steak, the entire Flash Wolves logistics team only had an assistant coach who part-time ordered takeout and made posters.
Not to mention training various lineups. Apart from studying versions and reviewing games, they have no extra energy to help the team formulate special tactics, collect information about their opponents, and analyze their weak links.
No time at all!
Therefore, for Flash Wolves, asking them to come up with some big moves, new understandings and new things is simply an impossible fantasy.
The only thing the Flash Wolves have been doing these days, apart from the coach and team members analyzing EDG players together, is one thing left.
Study the version systems that can be used in MSI and the playoffs of each major competition!
What they were most proficient in after training was the Galio, Prince, and Rambo systems copied from the LPL.
It just so happened that in the mid-season, Prince and Rambo's BP rates were extremely low, and Galio's appearance rate was good but his ban rate was also low. This gave the Flash Wolves the opportunity to take full advantage of them.
Mimi Dan is good at Rambo, which adds another level of confidence to Flash Wolf.
"Let's grab Galio on the blue side. Many teams do this, so EDG won't be suspicious." Steak was still telling everyone about his BP arrangement.
As the players on both sides were ready, the referee behind him gave the command to the Flash Wolf members on the blue side to start the game!
"Okay, everyone! Today's second round of BO5 has begun. The Flash Wolf on the blue side took the lead in banning Jace!"
Steak is determined not to ban Kenan anymore.
Regardless of the blue or red side since the group stage, Kennen, who has always been in the Flash Wolves ban position, has been a thorn in Steak's side.
Now I finally don’t have to worry about it anymore!
In other words, Steak is eager for EDG to take Kennen directly.
Think about it, Galio + Prince, this frontal force attack ability is several levels better than the Titans and others. If you dare to use Kennen to single-handedly lead, I will directly attack the front and be done!
EDG on the other side is still a fairly standard hero who bans the spider and the blind monk, two Casa's unique heroes.
The first round of bans ended quickly. Both the male gunner and Kennen's OP points were released. In addition, the Flash Wolf grabbed Galio. Such an abnormal performance immediately aroused nofe's vigilance.
"Is this Galio going to step up?" Nofe frowned slightly. After thinking for a very short time, he began to issue BP instructions.
Regardless of Kennen and the male spear, even if these two heroes Flash Wolf are taken together, he still has countermeasures. Nofe chooses to take down Ice and Braum in the bottom lane first.
The combination of Ice + Braum has advantages in both counterattack and first move; there are Ice W and Braum Security Door in the online battle; [Eagle Strikes the Sky] can even help the jungler to open the map, which has great strategic significance.
Under normal circumstances, this is the optimal solution for the red side on the first and second floors, and at the same time, it is paired with a Freljord duo in the bottom lane.
Steak felt a little sad.
This is the problem of the player's hero pool, which cannot put pressure on the opponent!
From a strategic point of view, Ice Braum naturally has a high priority, but if Mimi Egg's Kennen plays well, EDG will have to consider whether it has to capture Kennen first.
So Han Bing and Bron let one of them go to Lightning Wolf.
The reality is that Mimi Dan doesn't play Kennen, so EDG can confidently take down the lane combination first.
And EDG doesn't have to worry about Kennen being robbed.
Steak shook his head and eliminated the negative thoughts in his head. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, he simply went out with both the prince and Rambo!
Just put together a set and go to the middle and jungle!
"Oh! It seems that this is the result of Flash Wolf's training these days!" Jack opened his eyes wide and watched as the other party took out his familiar lineup.
This combination once forced the LPL third-place team WE into a desperate situation, causing Spring Championship EDG to spend a week studying how to crack it.
At this moment, Flash Wolves sent him to the field again.
But nofe didn't care at all.
As the team plays more and more games recently, the accumulated understanding of the version is also becoming deeper.
The lineup that once left people helpless, now nofe has a stable enough idea of solving problems, and can even divide it into different directions.
"Are you going to take the Enchantress this time?" Nofe asked Scout. The last time it was his long sword Enchantress that cut off the little tiger Galio's early roaming opportunity.
"Or we could try that!"
Nofe's last sentence was like a magical sound that struck his ears, and Scout immediately became energetic!
Jack was stunned for a moment, still thinking about what that was?
I saw that on the third floor of my house, the Scout player had chosen the Holy Lancer Lucian.
"Wait! I've already taken AD"
Before Jack could finish speaking, Scout, who received nofe's affirmation, pressed the lock directly!
"The duo is out! This is..." Guan Zeyuan shouted in surprise: "Mid laner Lucian?!"
Galio has gained notoriety in the mid lane due to his W passively automatically generating a magic shield, and has become the mage's nemesis!
There is no doubt that only AD heroes can restrain him.
However, the mid-lane assassin suffered two rounds of major cuts after only one version because he wore armor and ascended to the altar, and has disappeared.
The only mid lane AD Jace was also banned. Guan Zeyuan thought that EDG would most likely bring out the long sword Enchantress that they had used before, but he didn't expect EDG to have a new move!
He carefully thought about the maneuverability of Lucian in the middle, and the smile on his face became more and more prominent;
"Don't say it! Lucian is really up to something!"
At this time, Nofe did not see the shocked Flash Wolves. He quickly banned Varus and Titan, preventing the opponent from learning how to use the auxiliary Titan to enhance the lineup's strong opening ability. At the same time, it also restricted the opponent's ability to use Varus. Sri Lanka is paired with the Galio system.
Flash Wolf knocked down the Factory Director's Rek'sel and Wine Barrel, plus EDG banned Spider and Lee Sin in the first round, and the early rhythm jungle seemed to have disappeared.
But nofe still has a good candidate in mind!
He first communicated with Li Mufan, who looked happy and said with a smile: "Coach, you are really killing people!"
The hero nofe asked him to choose was surprisingly the crocodile used by Mimi Egg in the previous game!
Two rounds of games, teaching forehand and backhand, isn’t this killing someone’s heart?
"Haha, they used this Galio system, but they used the first three moves directly, without any extra design or strategy!" Nofe shook his head, showed off his recent Chinese proficiency twice and said: "Flash Wolf this Just tell Handan to follow the instructions! I don’t understand anything at all, BP is too rigid!”
nofe needs to teach the opponent a lesson, let them see that even if it is the same lineup, if the order of BP is different, the effect will be very different!
"Both Varus and Han Bing had no choice. Flash Wolf took out the policewoman who ranked third in appearance rate as a substitute!" I remember that the BP content was still being broadcast: "In terms of support, because they got the big core policewoman, the team's There are enough initiators, and finally a protective support, Karma! The entire lineup of Flash Wolf has been formed!”
EDG still has the last jungle position left that has not yet been unveiled.
In fact, it is quite rare for the red side team to reserve the counter position for the jungler. Under normal circumstances, they choose one of the top and middle solo lanes.
But with the debut of EDG's fifth hero, everyone quickly understood the reason.
"The Crocodile and Leopard combination!" Guan Zeyuan's voice was loud and clear: "EDG specially paired the Leopard Girl for this top laner, Crocodile! It's going to be hard for me now. You have to know that in our LPL, the Crocodile and Leopard combination was developed to be the most targeted. The worst thing is the top laner Rambo!”
"What's even more comfortable is that this Leopard Girl can also make up for the disadvantage in damage composition of the top and middle two being AD heroes!"
Leopard Girl is the most unique existence among wild core heroes, because although she is a wild core, in her strong period, she does not take over the game in the late stages like male spearmen and Kindred.
Leopard Girl has been strong since level three!
Like Spider and Jace, these heroes with the ability to transform, after getting their two sets of skills at level three, their strength suddenly changes and they directly jump to the forefront of the same position!
This makes it even more difficult for the prince, who is weak in combat ability in the jungle, to find a rhythm.
Not to mention that this Leopard Girl is paired with Crocodile in the top lane and Lucian in the mid lane. They are all terrifying explosive heroes just thinking about it!
Although it was late at night in China at this time, the MSI live broadcast room was still very lively.
Seeing the appearance of the mid laner Lucian and Ueno Crocodile Leopard, the audience suddenly turned into barrage entertainers.
【Coming, coming! A classic forehand and backhand scene between a strong team and a weak team! I'll bet ten coins on Emperor Fan to win! 】
[In order to improve the performance of our provincial team with good intentions, Fanhuang taught Mimi Dan how to play crocodile on the spot]
[It’s so funny that Crocodile and Leopard are back in action, but the victim is Rambo! 】
[The first three picks of Flash Wolves are too abstract. They insist on the Prince Galio system and don’t think about it. These things are all leftovers from our LPL. Can EDG compete? 】
[What did mid laner Lucian say? EDG is reviving the classic top and jungle combination while also researching the mid lane. They need to focus on both sides? 】
[Don’t tell me, this middle lane really needs to be equipped with this kind of AD hero with displacement! Change AP and be crushed to death by Galio in the early stage. In the mid-term, the prince will kill you with his big move! But Lucian? A bit restrained prince! 】
Everyone in the Lightning Wolves panicked the moment they saw Scout reveal Lucian.
When the crocodile and leopard girl appeared one by one, before the game started, Mimi Dan had already put on the mask of pain!
Rambo is the output fulcrum of this lineup, but you also need to be able to develop equipment normally in the early stage, right?
As soon as the crocodile and leopard combination appeared on the opposite side, it was clear that military training was on the way. How can I develop myself to keep up with the rhythm of the game if I have a headache?
As the countdown ended, the lineups of both sides were established.
Blue side Flash Wolves: top laner Rambo, jungler Prince, mid laner Galio, bottom lane policewoman, and assistant Karma.
Red side EDG: top laner Crocodile, jungler Leopard Girl, mid laner Lucian, bottom lane Ice, and assist Braum.
"Although the EDG lineup has the rare mid laner Lucian and the very retro combination of Ueno Crocodile and Leopard,..." Guan Zeyuan coughed twice to clear his throat, and shouted in a rich voice: "This is the characteristic of our LPL!"
"I am extremely optimistic about EDG's lineup. Just do it! Just fight!"
"To be honest, there's not much the Flash Wolves can do. Their coach can't be blamed for this." I remember taking a deep breath, suppressing the helpless feeling in my heart and smiling: "EDG must have been right in the days before the finals. Galio’s system has been studied for a long time, but this is the first time Flash Wolf has come up with it.”
"The key is that the hero pool of the Flash Wolves players limits their personalized handling of BP! When Steak is BP, he has to consider the issue of hero restraint, what the players are good at, and the BP that EDG constantly releases. Pressure, it’s actually quite good to be able to do this.”
Steak looked bitter, but he had to comfort his team members to play well.
He turned to shake hands with Nofe, and when he turned back and walked off the stage, his shoulders relaxed, showing an expression of relief.
The more he stayed in that game, the more he could feel the strong pressure from the EDG team.
It's like they know infinite lineups and systems, and they can come up with unique and effective ways to deal with various systems!
Perhaps only SKT, the strongest team today, can compete with EDG in BO5, right?
Steak just hopes that he won't lose too miserably.
However, when EDG came up with this top, middle and jungle combination, this game was destined to be impossible to be harmonious!
In two minutes, the factory director opened the second level of red and caught him directly!
He did not pay the punishment, but slowly finished the red buff, drank the potions on his body to restore his blood volume, and waited for Li Mufan's crocodile to reach the second level.
Mimi Dan was not prepared at all and was still clearing the line with the crocodile.
"The factory director is already in place." Guan Zeyuan lowered his voice and suddenly burst out the next moment!
"Flash Red Fury W [Cold Hunting]! Brother Fan struck first decisively!"
The factory director immediately appeared from the side, and hit Rambo with an unpretentious javelin throw. Then he transformed and pounced on A followed by enhanced Q. The thunder was triggered, and the damage was explosive!
On the other side, the crocodile also used a Q skill, and combined with the Leopard Girl's burst damage, first blood was directly born!
"Too fast!" I remember shouting excitedly: "Second-level catch, the factory director knows that Kasa will be on the road soon and squats, and he is not willing to wait for one more second!" (End of Chapter)
