Chapter 58 Carry out the mid-to-upper swing to the end
After the first three players were determined, the two sides entered the second round of competition.
Although there was a possibility for HLE that the Sword Girl would hit the mark, RA still chose to get rid of a hand of cards.
The reason is also very simple, because HLE's bottom lane combination has been locked, and among the three positions of upper, middle and jungle, only Chovy in the middle can stand out in the game.
Therefore, RA will basically not consider blocking HLE's hero pool in the jungle.
Since the strength and weakness of the two teams are surprisingly consistent, HLE also maintains the same idea as RA in pulling people.
You pull my card, right? Then I'll pull a Galio from you.
This kind of hero is mainly about supporting the rhythm. If you don't want to play it, just don't play it.
Besides, there is no way HLE would release it to the RA Galio Prince gun system.
RA chose to block the mid laner Tsar in his last move.
After all, Chovy is really good at brushing, and the Tsar is the hero who is most likely to create miracles in the later stage once he is brushed in the early stage.
Of course, Chovy wouldn't be able to play comfortably.
As a result, the two sides have already locked up nine pulling positions. If you include Lucian, who may still appear in the middle, they have already knocked out seven mid lane heroes.
All T1 level mid laners in the World Championship version have been locked in the trigger position.
This is enough to prove the importance that the coaching teams of both sides attach to the mid lane matchup.
After all, Chovy and JOJO are the biggest carry points of the two teams. The outcome of this game will most likely depend on the performance of these two players.
HLE made the last move, and after much thought, they finally did not continue to restrict the mid laner's hero pool, but chose to remove Luo from the auxiliary position.
The two sides entered the second round of selection.
RA took down the auxiliary Titan first, while HLE helped jungler Willer lock Xin Zhao.
Sure enough, the two teams still kept the suspense until the end.
The three commentators on the stage are also looking forward to HLE's final selection.
"Did Sword Girl hit the target? We will know the answer soon." Guan Zeyuan said with excitement.
When he saw the avatar of the Five Seconds Real Man appearing in the hero selection box on the fifth floor of HLE, Colonel Guan's eyes widened:
"Is the Barbarian King, who was highly discussed before the game, really going to appear directly in the opening game?"
As early as a month ago, Doinb, who likes to explore new mid lane heroes and new routines, emphasized many times in the live broadcast that the hero Barbarian King will definitely shine in the World Championship.
Just like all the bottom lane duos participating in the World Championship are practicing Lucian Mei crazily, all mid laners have also practiced the hero Barbarian King in training matches.
It seems that Chovy's Barbarian King should have performed well in training matches.
"Although in the current version, it is more likely that the Barbarian King will appear in the middle, we do not rule out the possibility that HLE is still swinging up and down." Teacher Remember analyzed.
The swing between Dao Mei and Barbarian King put RA into a difficult situation in terms of player selection.
All the powerful heroes who can play in the middle have been blocked. What kind of heroes will JOJO use to face Hanwha's swing in the middle?
RA obviously stalled for a long time in the final selection process. It was not until the countdown stage that this hero selection, which was crucial to the game situation of both sides, was unveiled.
"Ryze?" Colonel Guan was stunned for a moment. Even though he had such rich commentary experience, he was still confused by this BP.
Both sides of the game carried out the upper and middle swing to the end.
HLE's Barbarian King and Sword Girl can still swing up and down, while RA's Wanhao and Ryze can also do the same.
What's even more terrible is that there may also be a situation where the mid-to-upper line changes.
For example, mid laner Chovy can go up with the Barbarian King and let Morgan's Sword Girl go in the middle.
Therefore, when both sides enter the final preparation phase before loading the game, there are even as many as sixteen possible matchups.
Even if Colonel Guan seriously doubts that there is no hero Ryze in Cube's hero pool, there are still 8 matchup possibilities left.
The CPU of the senior colonel was almost smoking.
Fortunately, at this stage, both sides must determine which player will control which hero. Therefore, once this is determined, the number of possible matchups will suddenly be reduced.
When he saw that the sword girl on the HLE side was finally moved to the upper unit, and the Barbarian King was used by Chovy, and on the RA side, just as Colonel Guan expected, Wan Hao was finally locked on the first floor, Colonel Guan finally calmed down. God comes.
In this way, there is only one remaining suspense.
Is it possible for both parties to switch lines?
Just looking at the current matchup situation, RA undoubtedly has the advantage.
In the middle, Ryze is good at beating the Barbarian King in the early stage, and the top laner can also suppress the Sword Girl.
However, if HLE changes lanes in the middle, the situation will be completely different.
If the Sword Girl hits Ryze in the lane, and the Barbarian King goes to the top to hit Wan Hao, it will be a bit difficult for RA.
It is true that the Barbarian King is not easy to fight against the Wrist Hero, but if ID is included, it is really uncertain whether Chovy's Barbarian King will face up to Cube's Wrist Hero.
Combined with the length of the top lane, it is possible for Chovy to hit him for a solo kill.
As for the line between Ryze and Sword Girl, even if JOJO's Ryze can reverse Counter Knife Girl with his personal operation, it is really not easy for Knife Girl to die as long as she doesn't get the upper hand.
Therefore, before entering the game, RA and HLE must make a big gamble.
In this huge gamble, both sides have a 50-50 chance of winning.
Did I predict your prediction, or did you predict that I predicted your prediction, or did I predict your prediction... (omitting one million words here), the suspense will always remain Until the heroes of both sides come online.
The BP between HLE and RA reminded Colonel Guan of some unpleasant memories.
That year, in the quarter-finals of the S8 World Championship, RNG was severely beaten by the opponent with a mid-range swing in the fourth round of the BO5 match against G2.
As a result, RNG's upper and middle lines split apart directly. Not only was the opponent playing haphazardly with it, but it also destroyed the entire team's mentality.
Entering the decisive game with this mentality, RNG's final defeat was expected.
Therefore, Guan Zeyuan is still slightly worried about the upcoming game.
Can RA understand Hanwha's psychology and make the counter relationship between the upper and middle lines come true?
The answers will be revealed in just over a minute.
The lineups chosen by both sides for this game are as follows:
【HLE.Morgan Blade Dancer·Irelia】vs【RA.Cube Master·Setti】
【HLE.Willer, Steward of Germany·Xin Zhao】vs【RA.Leyan, Prince of Demacia·Jarvan IV】
【HLE.Chovy Barbarian King·Tryndamere】vs【RA.JOJO Wandering Mage·Ryze】
【HLE.Deft Explosive Genius·Giggs】vs【RA.Iboy Bounty Hunter·Miss Fortune】
[HLE.Vsta Dawn Goddess Leona] vs [RA.Hang Deep Sea Titan Nautilus]
The two sides of the competition are about to enter the Summoner's Rift. (End of chapter)
