Chapter 352 353: Deadly swords, three difficulties!


Chapter 352 Chapter 353: Deadly swords, three difficulties!

The makeup photo shoot is over and the business activities have finally come to an end. Professional players no longer need to leave early and come back late every day.

But this does not mean that VG members can relax.

In order to ensure that the team is in good shape at the start of the season, Hongmi has made appointments with various first-tier clubs for training, striving to understand the changes in the mid-season version as soon as possible!

Compared with the Spring Split, which has lower points in the first half of the year, the Summer Split is undoubtedly more important as it is about tickets to the World Championship.

Hongmi did not dare to take it lightly.

However, the team’s recent training match results have not been ideal.

At the end of the day, the winning rate basically remained around 50%.

"To be honest, the weakening of the Spell-Stealing Blade still has too big an impact on us..." After Gu Xing finished another training match, he leaned back on his engineering chair and looked at the unsatisfactory results on the whiteboard in the training room. Condition.

"Lao Duan is not very adaptable, and it makes me feel quite uncomfortable!"

The fist's targeting can be described as immediate.

VG's original system is very mature. Everyone performs their own duties, and they work together like gears to drive the team machine forward.

The designer's knife was like damaging a gear in the machine, and the rest of the gears suffered together!

League of Legends is not just two Solo lanes plus jungle brush and bottom lane 2v2.

In today's professional arena, one move can affect the whole body!

Duan Deliang cannot provide expendable soft assistants, which directly reduces the laning intensity of the VG duo, which in turn affects the route rights, and then radiates to the jungle matchup.

Gu Xing usually likes to use the power of the lower lane to cause trouble, either by invading the enemy's jungle area, or by swinging people to start a fight in the lower half, in order to gain economic advantage.

This is a habit he has developed since his debut in the S6 Summer Split.

Now, it was directly eliminated by fist patch!

"Besides, Lulu will be weakened in the 7.10 version," Duan Deliang was very depressed. "The ecological environment of the bottom lane is completely different now than before!"

Riot seemed to be afraid that the VG support could not be destroyed by a single cut of the Spell Stealing Blade, and they did not even let go of their previous best mid-support swing position.

Purple Garlic's base health and the amount of shield provided by E [Help, Pixar] were brutally attacked!

The completely subverted auxiliary priority made Xiao Duan very uncomfortable.

Kuro is also a victim and has a strong say in this. "Now the only swing position left is Karma. It's really disgusting!"

"Fist my ****!" Jack expressed his dissatisfaction in plain Tibetan dialect, "If you don't know how to update, don't update, learn from others to update!"

He has experienced the pain of not having the right to wire.

In the first half of the year, Yu Wenbo easily completed the laning under Duan Deliang's careful care, and the number of times he was killed in the spring game was only a handful!

Now Xiao Duan has just begun to transform, but has not completely changed his style.

Jack himself can't help himself.

When facing strong enemies in the lane, they will be pinned under the tower and unable to move. If you are not careful, you will suffer serious consequences!

Yu Wenbo cursed in Tibetan words heartily, like a signal gun, immediately making the VG training room noisy.

They didn't have much rest time after playing MSI, and they were hit hard twice by fists. No matter how good their quality was, their mentality was a bit broken.

"Be sensible, everyone!" Jin Wenhe tried to persuade.

Kuro felt very unhappy and said in less than standard Mandarin, "Lychee? What do you call me lychee!"

"Marubimaru, as long as we use the characters and gameplay well, we will get stabbed!"

Hongmi did not persuade.

The players have been really depressed in recent days, and it is necessary to vent appropriately.

The bottom line is that I have never been targeted like this by a fist before.

Needless to say, the two former ROX members in the team had not achieved any decent results in international competitions before joining VG, so the weakening of Riot Games will basically not affect them.

The same is true for Jack. He has won the starting honors in the past six months and has not attracted the attention of Riot Games before.

Even old members Gu Xing and Xiao Duan are doing this for the first time!

The designers tried to weaken them in the S7 pre-season version.

But first, the change that delayed the outbreak of assassins at that time made the environment extremely chaotic. The emergence of the Mantis Lion Dog disrupted the jungle environment. Gu Xing was still able to complete his rule by relying on his own strong strength.

Second, Grasshopper and Lulu in the auxiliary position have emerged one after another. VG just has Kuro, a mid laner who can play the role of a tool man. The addition of the swing position makes Duan Deliang like a duck in water!

Although VG had a brief period of pain in the first half of the spring split, it was because of communication problems with the new players in the team at that time, and Kuro's weird style of play that Gu Xing was not used to.

The main reason is internal, and everyone knows that as long as the run-in is in place, the team's strength will take off.

This time is completely different!

The movements of the fists were fast and effective. VG members instinctively felt that something was wrong, and the prospects of the summer competition were shrouded in a thick haze!

In this situation, if VG players can remain indifferent and have no ups and downs in their hearts, then they are simply pure saints!

Hongmi didn't intend to stop him, but quietly sorted out the information.

The members' self-control ability is not wrong. They know that complaining can't solve any problems.

A few curses are enough to make you feel better.

Seeing that the training room gradually became quiet, Hongmi spoke slowly: "The mid-season version will be implemented in two days. The data team just summarized the information of the recent Korean server qualifying matches and training matches to me."
< br>

"Next, I will connect each position and talk about it, clarify the training goals before the start of the game, and let everyone brainstorm and give some suggestions to see how to solve it."

Redmi goes straight to the point.

"The support position has changed the most. Let me start here... The weakening of Spellstealing Blade has forced Zyra to withdraw from the professional arena. So far, it is as I predicted. The reward for completing the mission of Relic Shield is in The three types of salary packages are even better!”

"The assistants who produce the Shield of Relics are currently roughly divided into two categories: the hard-hitting assistants represented by Niu Tou and the protective assistants headed by Braum."

He gushed, "Among them, the protection assistant has the upper hand in terms of priority, and everyone understands that."

Everyone present agreed with what Hongmi said.

As we all know, the restraint relationship between the auxiliary position is that the consumption auxiliary restrains the protection auxiliary - after all, the protection auxiliary has no ability to start a group first. In the face of the enemy's crazy consumption, he can only fight back and become an iron turtle.

Protection assistants are more likely to resist team-starting assistants, because they are very reluctant to enter the battlefield to start teams. Not only can they protect the back row, but they also have backhand methods to retain people, and team-starting assistants cannot get any advantage in front of them.

The group-starting auxiliary restrains the consumption auxiliary, easily closes the distance and starts a fight, and the intensity of the fight is much stronger than the brittle consumption auxiliary.

When the magic-stealing blade disappears, the consumption auxiliary disappears without a trace. Without the protection of natural enemies, the auxiliary's natural status is lofty!

“It is worth mentioning that the positioning of some auxiliary heroes is relatively vague, such as Lulu, Karma and Fengnu. They have both line suppression and protection functions. To a certain extent, they have a range advantage and are more restrained than pure protection auxiliaries. ”

"But even if there is no spell-stealing blade, it is still the ancient coin genre... It is a pity that the strength of ancient coins is not satisfactory now, and the selection rate of these characters is not high."

Duan Deliang clicked his tongue irritably.

If he could choose these three heroes, he wouldn't have been so uncomfortable in the training matches in the past two days, and he would still have enough initiative in the lane.

"However, there are also a few assistants with vague positions who have taken advantage of the situation." Hongmi turned on the projector and projected the information on the screen. "Thresh is the most representative character among them."

Thresh's skill set is comprehensive. He can start a team by hooking people to win prizes, and he can also protect his teammates with lanterns and pendulums of doom.

Therefore, it is difficult to define him as a strong support or a protective support.

According to the information provided by Redmi, Thresh's BP rate in the Korean server remains high, with all of them reaching the top of the auxiliary position, and their strength is extremely exaggerated!

"In the era when protection assistants were popular, Thresh, a versatile player with the ability to draw prizes, was really popular. The key was to be able to take the initiative and at the same time create linkage with teammates."

"This is acceptable news," Hongmi twitched, "because the Thresh in the sales section is pretty good."

Duan Deliang put his hands behind his head and didn't quite buy what the coach said, "But there are too many powerful Thresh in the LPL. Basic heroes, I think all professional supports should be able to use them, right?"

Gu Xing agreed, "It's just like the blind monk in the jungle position. If you don't know how to play Li Qing, why should you practice jungle..."

He suddenly changed his words mid-sentence, "It doesn't seem like that's necessarily the case."

"Who are you hinting at, little bitch?" Jack burst into laughter.

Everyone in the room laughed out loud, diluting the previously dull atmosphere.

Domestic players laugh because Guijiaoqi’s meme is widely circulated in the e-sports circle.

Smeb and Kuro laughed because 4396 was produced by their Tigers.

Especially Song Jinghao, the factory director was ruined after the S6 World Championship. He must have at least 1/3 of the credit!

The wave on the top of the road, Kenan twisted his waist to avoid the Tianyin wave, allowing Mingkai to miss RQ, which almost gave Mingkai a psychological shadow.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the team had relaxed, Hongmi cast a look of approval at Gu Xing and then spoke to bring the topic back.

"After talking about support, let's talk about shooters, protection support and Thresh's large-scale appearance, so that the non-displacement core ADC has enough opportunities to appear, and teammates are fully capable of providing sufficient output space."

When Jack heard his position, he immediately pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Verus and Han Bing, who were very strong in the mid-season, can still appear. Although the increased price of 100 gold coins will delay the formation of these two characters, the impact is not very big."

Redmi laid out the data, "Take the Spring Split as an example. The average number of gold coins harvested by the ADC per minute in the professional arena is around 410, and the price increase will be delayed for 15 seconds at most..."

"And the price reduction of Endless by 200 gold coins is also good for Han Bing and Verus. They can do Destruction first, and then turn to Hurricane Green Cross to Endless. The combat intensity is still quite exaggerated!"

"Another affected character is Big Mouth," Hongmi said. "Compared to other shooters who are very strong in the mid-season, its popularity is more affected by the environment."

Even among non-displacement heroes, Kog'Maw the Big Mouth is a character who is very afraid of being cut into charging.

It doesn't have any means of self-protection, and it doesn't even have a control move like Ice Verus. It's just a stationary output turret.

On the other hand, as long as Big Mouth can enter the professional arena, it means that the team has sufficient protection capabilities!

What's more, if Big Mouth doesn't do Endless, he won't be able to enjoy the bonus of lower selling prices, and will have to pay an extra 100 gold coins because of the ruined price increase.

Being able to become a version T1 shooter naturally has its strengths!

"Apart from the popularity of protection assistants, there is another important reason, which is that the lineup is really lacking in damage..."

Hongmi gave a detailed explanation, "In the past mid-season, Big Mouth was not taken seriously, because every position can be played as a core, and everyone has enough output, so there is no need to raise Big Mouth."


It turns out that the auxiliary can choose Zyra's female gun as half of the output point.

In the jungle, there is a veritable jungle core character called the male gun!

But now, the consumption assistant cannot play.

The jungler's gun was not only cut down by the ARE recoilless rifle, but was also punished by Riot in version 7.10 - the base damage of Q [End of the Road] was reduced, and the cooldown of R [Ultimate Explosive Bomb] was increased.

He has completely become a sewer hero!

Nosuke cannot provide enough output, and the burden of output should naturally fall on the shooter.

Although Big Mouth has poor self-protection ability, its strength lies in its unparalleled continuous output ability!

It is reasonable for the BP rate to recover.

"As for the upper jungle, it is a connected whole," Redmi plans to merge them together. "The mid-season version of the tank hero revision will have a great impact on the ecology of the first half."

"The three front rows of Dashu, Pig Girl and Zach are being reworked, but their respective status is very subtle."

"In the conventional understanding, the big tree is on the road, but the fist balance technique is very clever. They also shaved off the tank equipment of the top unit. As a result, although the top lane tree is strong enough, it is not a must-choose for the ban. degree.”

Gu Xing looked at the various sets of data on the curtain.

Pig Girl was too strong just after the redesign. Riot Games made an emergency modification in version 7.10, and her strength declined.

As for Zach, he was enhanced by the designers and combined with the optimization of the fanatics, turning him into a supermodel monster!

"The general situation now is that Zach is in the jungle in T0, and Dashu and Zhumei are at the end of T1..." Hongmi said his thoughts, "But I don't think the current version is worthy of going to the jungle and selecting the tank front row."


"Because there is a new version of Canyon Pioneer in the Dalong Pit in the upper half of the area."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jack couldn't help but raise his voice, "Fist changed this thing to something really outrageous. It turned into a bulldozer. When it saw the defense tower, it started to slam forward!"

Hongmi has put the modified Pioneer text information on the screen to ensure that all members can see it.

In version 7.9, apart from the changes to tanks and salary equipment, the neutral creature Canyon Pioneer has also received a redesign after a year.

It is estimated that Riot also felt that its previous performance was too weak.

It turns out that only some top laners who emphasize single-lane laning and junglers who engage in 1V1 battles in the wild will choose to hunt, and no one cares about them at other times.

In this revision, after the Canyon Pioneer is captured, the Eye of the Pioneer no longer provides a buff state. Instead, it can guide for 3.5 seconds and summon a new Pioneer, which can help the team advance!

And as a summoned object, the Canyon Pioneer is extremely strong.

As the average level of the hero in the game increases, its blood volume will slowly increase.

But the lowest value is 4000.

The unique collision effect will cause the turret to output 150+25% of its own health!

Calculated based on the minimum blood volume of 4000, the first head-on collision with the defense tower will cause 1150 points of damage!

If calculated based on the highest blood volume of 6400, the output of the first head impact is as high as 1750!

You know, the outer tower only has 3,500 health points, and a single attack from the vanguard can knock out half of it!

And this version of Canyon Pioneer will lose the amount of HP that caused the damage after hitting the first head.

For a vanguard with a very thick health bar, it is not enough to break the bones.

As long as the opponent cannot deal with it in time, the vanguard can continue to pose a threat to the enemy's defense tower under the cover of the team!

The perfect tower pushing machine!

"It is precisely because of the existence of Rift Pioneer that I think the top half of the lineup cannot choose too many tanks in the front row," Hongmi said. "This will greatly affect the team's speed in accepting the Pioneer and drag down the team's early and mid-term teamwork. Fighting intensity.”

Gu Xing nodded repeatedly.

The emergence of the new version of Canyon Pioneer is bound to cause a bloody storm in the upper half of the area!

Each team will definitely make tactical arrangements around the vanguard, and they will not hesitate to fight against each other for this purpose!

Tank characters are essential in a healthy lineup, but there shouldn't be too many of them.

If everyone in the upper and jungle fields chooses the front row, and has control and tankiness, who will deal continuous damage in the Rift Herald team battle?

"I think one front row is enough," Gu Xing put forward his own idea. "For example, if I want to choose Pig Girl as a jungler, Maibo will need to add a damage output role such as Sword Girl..."

Hongmi deeply agreed with this and then added.

"From what I can see, judging from the current situation of the summer regular season, short-handed protection aids are prevalent, and even effective blood exchanges are rare. A reduction in blood intensity is inevitable!"

If everyone has a high health volume and all the summoner skills are in hand, then it will be difficult for the jungler to successfully gank!

Gu Xing looked a little ugly when he thought of this.

The fist is weakened in every possible way.

Compared to direct changes to the hero, he is more afraid of the marginalization of the jungler's status!

Originally, as long as the jungler was strong enough, he could gain a transcendent status in the team and lead the team to victory.

But now the jungler cannot play wild core, and it is difficult to use rhythm heroes to get benefits through raids...

Isn't there only one option left to play team control map?

While Gu Xing was thinking about it, Hongmi continued to talk about his thoughts.

"Then the 10-minute team battle after the Rift Herald is born is very likely to be the most critical or even the only battle in the laning period!"

He then looked at Smeb.

"Now the tank equipment has been revised, and the emergence of gargoyle stone plate armor has given rise to the prince's top laner. Jing Hao, you have to improve your proficiency as soon as possible..."

Jarvan IV received the enhancement of W [Golden Divine Shield] in the spring split, which provides a shield based on the percentage of maximum health based on the number of surrounding heroes.

The Gargoyle Stone Plate Armor is a piece of equipment that is extremely suitable for the prince - if nearby enemy heroes are greater than or equal to 3, they will gain additional resistance, and the shield value of the active effect will also increase accordingly!

Tank heroes have been strengthened, armor-breaking equipment has been cut, and the status of the prince who can use Q [Dragon Crash] to cause armor-breaking effects is getting higher and higher.

More importantly, the prince can form a perfect linkage with Galio, and their ultimate moves will cause a devastating blow to the non-displaceable hero!

With the blessing of various factors, the prince is like the chosen son and has become the most popular hero in the top lane!

"Don't worry," Smeb gestured, "I can practice heroes quite quickly."

Hongmi received the assurance and turned to Gu Xing, "Sui Gu, your latest task is to cooperate with Jing Haolian. Whether you two can gain an advantage in the early stage will directly determine the direction of the team's Canyon Pioneer team battle!"< br>


"I'm not too worried about the speed of your hero training. The key lies in the rhythm. Now there are fewer opportunities to compete than in the mid-season. You have to try to be familiar with giving the team an advantage without fighting."

Gu Xing took a deep breath and solemnly agreed.

Redmi's instructions to Kuro mainly focus on heroes, "In version 7.10, the points that need to be paid attention to in the middle are Galio and Kassadin."

Li Ruixing indicated that he understood.

Galio is an excellent partner for the prince, he can advance, attack, retreat and defend, and he clears the line very quickly.

With the development of the revised hero, everyone found that Colossus of Justice would be more suitable in the middle. The ultimate move can protect the entire radiation map and maximize its influence!

As for Kassadin, it is the product of increased fist equipment.

The enhancement of the anti-pressure artifact Dolan Shield allows Kassadin to thrive in the middle!

At the same time, the Abyss Scepter, which was previously a must-have for the mage mid laner, was changed into a pure tank equipment.

For Kassadin, it is undoubtedly a huge enhancement!

Originally, he was afraid of the opposing character coming out of the abyss with his protruding magic thorn. Not only would the opponent's magic resistance increase, it would be difficult to kill him, but Kassadin's own magic resistance would also be reduced!

It's better now. Without this important piece of defensive equipment for the mage, Kassadin's space for performance will be extremely wide!

And the current version of the summer game clearly wants to reduce the level of blood.

There are few fights in the early stage, which is very suitable for Kassadin who needs stable development!

Hongmi finally concluded, "Let me give you a summary, the main role of auxiliary protection is the main role, and the big core ADC in the bottom lane."

“Although the jungle has rhythm heroes such as Spider Lee Sin to choose from, its overall status in the game is constantly declining..."

"These three points are the core of what Riot is targeting, and the style of play has completely changed! In comparison, in the mid-to-upper level, more powerful heroes have changed, which is easier to solve."

The hero pool is not a serious problem for professional players.

It can be solved with diligent practice.

The rules of play are completely different.

To give the simplest example, can you imagine that Uzi suddenly stopped pressing the line and started to use resources to play tool man for his teammates?

The now weakened scythe of the fist can be described as a deadly blade.

They don't want Duan Deliang to continue to use powerful line-pressing heroes to gain lane rights for the team.

I don’t want Jack to continue to serve as the deputy core of the team, and to assume the role of a self-destructive ADC who can be killed when his output is maxed out.

I don’t want Gu Xing to easily take over the game through ganking in the early stage or wild core in the late stage!

The analysis of Hongmi is very clear and clear.

The summer split situation before VG is almost like a dead end!

The heated discussion in the training room never stopped from this moment on.

Everyone expressed their opinions and expressed their thoughts, trying to break through the giant net that bound the team's heads with fists!

……

June 8, Zhengda Square.

In early summer, the wind is already a little dry.

However, in front of the enthusiastic roar of the crowd watching the game, it is still not worth mentioning!

Just before 5 p.m., the big screen was turned on.

VG’s new sponsor KFC not only spent huge sums of money to hire Gu Xing, but also purchased LPL pre-game advertising space.

When Gu Xing's face with a cheerful smile appeared, the volume of the scene suddenly erupted and reached a higher level!

The boy on the screen was holding a Coke cup and saying something like "If you purchase designated drinks, you will have a chance to win a VG member-limited co-branded flash card."

The overcrowded LPL official live broadcast room was filled with laughter and joy.

The chat channel is full of jokes and jokes.

[Isn’t this okay, brother? He promised that KFC would never make money from him in this life, so he slapped himself in the face so soon? 】

[Don't be embarrassed, Brother Xing is obviously making money from KFC, Xiao Heizi doesn't understand, don't scream! 】

[Hahahaha, look at Brother Xing’s expression holding the KFC Coke cup in his hand, how can I detect any reluctance in it? 】

[Let people who like to drink Coca-Cola come to endorse KFC. Isn’t this a kind of NTR? 】

[Spicy is really beef. Is there still such an interpretation? Learned】

[Isn’t there anyone who plays Brother Xing’s cards? KFC shot a commercial alone. Although it didn’t appear on TV, it was outrageous enough]

[Don’t play commercials, hurry up and start the opening match. I’m just waiting for Brother Xing to fight Guijiaoqi! 】

Finally, at the moment when the time turned to 17 o'clock, the big screen ended the last advertisement and went completely dark.

The next moment, the LPL division logo was heavily smashed down, exposed in front of all the spectators!

This chapter lays out the three main problems to be solved in the summer game, paving the way for the subsequent plot.

Tomorrow I will start entering the competition chapter, and the number of words will be a little longer. 6400 words, 10.34w
