Chapter 109: Just rush and it’s over, I’m not afraid at all!
On the third day of the knockout round, the BO5 between RA and T1 is about to begin.
In the first two match days, DK defeated HLE 3:0 to advance directly, while EDG and RNG fought fiercely for five games. In the end, Guodian was the better. While advancing to the next round, it also broke the record of never breaking through the top eight in team history. The curse.
If RA loses this BO5, EDG will be the only one left among the top four.
In the knockout stage, no matter whether the audience is optimistic about it or not, everyone always has some expectations for the teams in their own division, so this game attracted great attention before the game started.
Before the game started, the three teachers responsible for the BO5 live commentary also expressed their opinions on the stage.
"Actually, I personally am quite optimistic about RA's mid laner JOJO's performance in this game. After all, Faker, as a veteran, should be slightly inferior to JOJO in terms of operation." Teacher Miller said.
"Yes, and if RA wants to defeat T1, it will only depend on whether JOJO can stand up. Now this team relies too much on JOJO to set the rhythm." Wawa also agreed with Miller's point of view.
"When the mid laner can perform well, other lanes must also be strengthened. When playing against a T1-level team that is already at a disadvantage, problems in any link will not work." 957 also expressed his views.
"Yeah, I hope every team member in RA can perform well." Although Miller's tone was full of expectations, he didn't sound optimistic.
In fact, if the strength of the two teams is similar, the commentators in the LPL division will often tend to speak in favor of their own team. However, there is indeed a visible gap in hard power between RA and T1, so even the commentators before the game There is no way to take sides.
Players from both sides took their seats in the competition seats, and the BP session was about to begin.
When the camera switched to the hero selection screen, the tone of the three commentators on the stage became excited.
"Here we go, the BP session has begun!" the doll said with anticipation.
If a weak team wants to defeat a strong team, it must have some design in the BP process. They want to know what kind of preparation RA has made before the game.
In the coin toss before the game, T1 got the priority to choose the side and actively chose the blue side.
"T1 directly defeated JOJO's Syndra and Silas in the first two hands. It's normal to defeat Syndra. After all, if you get this hero, you will basically have the right to pass in the early mid-term. But if Silas..." Mi Leluo mused: "T1 obviously wants to grab the cards."
Card Master is the hero that Faker is best at playing in the World Championship version. This hero is not very difficult to operate, but also tests the player's overall view and game understanding. These elements are exactly in line with Faker's SSR-level fate. 【One Leaf Knows Autumn】It fits perfectly.
RA also realized this, so they took down the midfielder combination of Blind Sin and Card in the first two hands.
"RA can pull with these two hands." The doll said: "T1 took away Nami on the third floor, and chose not to let RA on the red side directly take out Luna with the first two hands."
"RA killed the popular cat in the third hand, and both parties entered the first round of selection."
Teacher Miller's eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "T1 didn't take down the Enchantress. I guess Faker is not very good at playing this hero. Does RA dare to help JOJO lock down the Enchantress on the first three floors?"
Time has passed, and although Enchantress was once the Great Demon King's natal hero, he is no longer the top Enchantress user in the world.
After entering the selection process, T1 chose to grab the male gun, and RA really locked the Enchantress directly on the first floor!
"RA directly took out the midfielder of Enchantress and Xin Zhao with his first two hands!" Miller said excitedly: "This is really good. If you dare to let me go, I will dare to take it!"
"Actually, T1's intention to release Enchantress is very obvious. Since Faker doesn't play Enchantress very much, this hero is likely to occupy a fixed position on T1's side in BO5."
"Instead of doing this, I might as well release this hero first. If JOJO's Enchantress can't be beaten, then I will free up a trigger. If I play it, I will keep holding down it for the next few games. Okay.”
As Mr. Miller analyzed, T1's intention to release the Enchantress is indeed this. With their hard power leading, they dare to make such a bold attempt.
To Miller's relief, RA did not show any signs of cowardice and locked the hero instantly on the first floor.
"Just use this kind of momentum to fight. I'm weaker than you, but I'm not afraid at all!"
"Yeah, anyway, I'm playing this BO5 as a challenger. If you win, you gain blood, if you lose, it's not a loss." The doll also said with an excited face: "Just rush and it's over!"
After RA showed the midfield combination of Enchantress and Xin Zhao, T1 took out Aphelios and Ice Lady on the second and third floors respectively.
"It's better to give Aphelios to little Lu Bu. T1 basically didn't show any cards in the bottom lane in this World Championship. Aphelios took it all with one hand." Miller said.
Indeed, in the group stage, Lu Bu took out five Aphelios in six games. The reason why he did not take out the remaining one was because Aphelios was sent to the trigger position by the opponent.
Little Lu Bu is extremely good at this kind of big core AD, and when the talent of the bottom duo is overflowing, T1 prioritizes personal ability over version when selecting players for the bottom lane.
RA locked a hand of Gwen for the top laner Cube on the third floor.
"RA is going to play a double circle! Gwen and Xin Zhao were the most commonly used top and jungle combination in the summer split, but since Gwen was weakened, they have not appeared in the World Championship." When I saw RA showing up When it came to Gwen, 957 still showed a hint of surprise on his face.
"However, the selection of Gwen in this hand is quite reasonable. It seems that RA has really done a lot of preparation work before the game." Teacher Miller sincerely praised: "In the World Championship version that emphasizes the upper, middle and jungle, T1 is one of the few The kind of team that likes to play the AD core in the late stage, and the double circle combination is used to play the AD core! ”
The top three picks for both sides have been determined. From the current point of view, RA has indeed done a good job in handling the draft.
In the second round of fighting, T1 still chose to take down the popular female gun and tank, while RA took down the Erhammer combination, and at the same time took down Poppy for the Enchantress.
After entering the selection stage, RA took out Jin Garo's bottom lane combination, while T1 selected Prince and Lulu.
In this first BO5 game, the lineups chosen by both sides are as follows:
Top order: [Male Gun VS Gwen]
Jungler: [Prince VS Xin Zhao]
Mid laner: [Lissandra VS LeBlanc]
Archer: [Aphelios VS Jhin]
Assist: [Lulu VS Luo]
Before entering the game loading screen, Fang Jie chose the fate configuration of [Two Balls and One Lady] + [King of Lines].
Fang Jie's purpose in taking out these two fates was simple.
Facing the elderly Faker, who is declining but still has good consciousness, this is to use the line pressure brought by the bipolar character, coupled with the high, high and jungle affinity provided by [Fujiomi], in the middle in the early stage Open up the situation.
Faker, I'm sorry.
Next I may be a bit heavy handed.
Remember to say it if it hurts.
Yesterday, I lost my temper. Everyone continued to increase their efforts, urging me to update and saying that I am okay with water. I just need to be squeezed, and I will act out without supervision.
