Chapter 517 517: The only seedling, the hope of the entire competition!


Chapter 517 517: The only seedling, the hope of the entire competition!

"It's over, it's over..." Duan Deliang looked extremely annoyed, "Why can Samsung guess RNG's flaws!"

In the Guangzhou Stadium, Edgar was pacing behind the players' bench.

As time passed, the first and second floors of the red side RNG still did not choose a hero. Seeing this scene, Edgar's originally panicked mind slowly calmed down.

Guessed it.

If the RNG duo knows how to use Xia Luo, there is no need to hesitate at all, just choose it instantly.

What are you thinking about?

He smiled proudly and wildly.

In the last game of the group stage against VG, Edgar released Xia Luo and was punished badly.

I had originally made up my mind not to release Phoenix Legend again.

But on the night when the draw was decided against RNG, Edgar checked the hero pool information of the five Royal Royal players.

I thought I would be fully prepared and nothing would go wrong.

Unexpectedly, I actually discovered the clue!

Xia Luo is really ruthless. In terms of the strength of the duo alone in this world championship, it is second only to skateboard shoes + incense burner soft assistant.

When Kalista can't be released, Xialuo is the top duo in the S7 global finals!

But what if the player doesn’t know how to use it?

Edgar didn't believe it at first, and even scoffed.

How is it possible that there are professional players who can’t play Xia Luo?

Yet the data told him it was possible.

Let’s start with the individual.

Assistant Shi Senming has played Luo in a total of 6 games since the summer split. There is no highlight performance. 2 wins and 4 losses are far lower than RNG's season average winning rate.

The shooter Uzi was even more outrageous. He played a total of two games of Xia throughout the summer split, with 1 win and 1 loss, and his performance was mediocre.

The most exaggerated thing is that Riot Games installed Phoenix Legend at the end of April, and Uzi didn’t practice Xayah for the first time until July 6!

RNG didn't go to the mid-season tournament, so why did Uzi spend the past two months?

Edgar doesn't know and doesn't care.

He only knows that the RNG duo are pure fools and cannot practice Xia Luo in half a year.

Together they are even more innocent.

From the summer split to the S7 quarterfinals, RNG had never played a single Xialuo combination!

You must know that throughout the summer this year, Xialuo has been a well-known version of the T0 duo.

The combination played a total of 23 games in the LPL, with a winning rate of 69.5%, leading the pack in the bottom lane!

There are a total of 12 teams in the entire division, and 11 of them have Xialuo usage records, and everyone is afraid that they won’t be able to get it.

There is only RNG, and I don’t choose it when I release it!

Edgar was like a shark smelling blood, only to discover the bright spot.

Just because he didn't play it in qualifying, he didn't dare to conclude that RNG's bottom lane combination wouldn't play Xia Luo - after all, some players practiced secretly in private, and with enough tacit understanding, the actual results were very good.

Even if he didn't choose in the professional arena, Edgar wouldn't jump to conclusions because he was afraid that someone would deliberately use them to trick him.

But if you don’t practice in qualifying, you won’t need to do it on the field.

Is this how the only T0 duo in the version plays?

Edgar combined the two factors and judged that RNG was really not good at Xia Luo in the bottom lane.

Of course, everyone has different standards for being a hero.

Some people think that as long as players have practiced in ranked games, they will be good at it, and there is no need to go through professional competition verification. Anyway, if Rank kills a game randomly, fans will come out to brag about it.

Some people think that as long as you dare to use one set in the regular season, regardless of C or not, it is considered proficient anyway...

Edgar has always been very strict in training and managing players, and his standards are completely different.

His criterion for whether you can play this role is that you dare to obey the coach's lineup arrangement in key games and select him without any scruples, and your performance is in line with the normal level of the players, you can implement the tactics, and don't let the team pay for your hero pool!

Under his standards, the royal family's use of Xia Luo was obviously unsatisfactory, so they deliberately released RNG's Phoenix Legend today.

This judgment is now confirmed.

RNG seemed to be shocked by Edgar's bold move to let Xia Luo go. For a moment, it was in an embarrassing situation where the flaw was exposed. It didn't make a decision until the countdown was almost over.

Take out Cannon + Prince, two strong characters in the early and mid-term that have both strong opening and pushing abilities.

"It's done!" Edgar said with joy on his face.

Because Samsung's group stage results were not ideal.

In this BO5 game, they lost the priority to choose sides. In this version where the blue side takes the absolute initiative, SSG is at a natural disadvantage.

But after it was confirmed that RNG would not play Xia Luo, the situation faced by both sides in this BO5 game was reversed!

The top duo SSG like Xia Luo is naturally very skilled. If RNG doesn't use it, it will have to take the ban position in the future.

There are only 3 ban spots in total in the first round, and they will be divided to split Xia Luo. So how to deal with the top laner Cuvee?

"Shengzhen, you will have a big stage next," Edgar said with joy on his face as he went home, "Be sure to seize the opportunity!"

Cuvee understood and nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, we must beat the opponent's top laner today!"

If he was playing tank tank, he thought he couldn't compare to Letme.

But times have changed!

Still playing traditional tanks?

Now is the world of single-band top laners!

In fact, SSG only learned about the drastic changes in the top order environment yesterday.

After all, Samsung did not directly participate in the EZ jungle trap led by Gu Xing. It only fanned the flames and mixed in some broth.

Thinking of bringing other teams into the trap is equivalent to SSG making a profit.

So the priorities of the top lane heroes changed, and they really didn't know anything about it.

However, after Samsung lost against VG in the first round of the group stage, Edgar had an epiphany and thought of an extension of the wretched Zhenyanhai tactics that also involved the top laner.

SSG's evolutionary style of play is to survive in the early stage to release lane rights, to expand their vision in the mid-term to strive for development opportunities, and in the later stage to win the game by relying on their best 5v5 head-to-head combat.

But the field of view alone is not enough. There must be a team member responsible for creating space. Otherwise, even if the movement of enemy personnel is controlled through the eye position, they will not dare to cross the river to make money!

Whether it can develop across the river is crucial to the defender.

The soldiers all start from the bases of both sides and move towards three lines. If you can push through the river in the center of the map, it means that you can capture the lines of soldiers faster than your opponent, thereby accumulating more experience and economy, and opening up the opponent. bit gap.

What's more, after the troop line is pushed across the river by the hero, it will also provide the host side with more hidden benefits in terms of vision control, wild area defense, and competition for neutral resources.

It can be said that if the disadvantaged side can push the line of troops across the river, the whole team can use this to gain a broad space for development!

This complements Samsung’s True Eyes strategy.

The field of vision provided by the ward position allows the hero to better push the line of troops, and the forward line of troops can ensure the team's better deployment and control vision.

So who is the candidate?

Edgar naturally has to assign it to the team member with the strongest personal ability.

After Crown's operation declined and he began to transform into a team player, Samsung's member with the strongest operation became Cuvee.

Therefore, Edgar handed over the task of pulling space to his top laner and thought of a suitable hero for him.

Apart from Gnar, which Cuvee is best at, the recommended ones are Shen and Troll.

These characters have considerable advantages when facing tanks, and the intensity of team battles is not bad.

This is the top priority for Edgar. After all, team fighting is the capital for Samsung to gain a foothold in the LCK.

It's just that he didn't expect that the two factors of the price of Dolan Shield and the gain of the incense burner that were changed a long time ago would push the long-handed solo player to the altar!

But it’s not a big problem, only a few heroes need extra practice.

AD Kenan Cuvee is also very good at it. You don't have to pick it up for a long time and you can quickly get started after playing two games.

It seems that the way Longzhu chose to win yesterday was to rely solely on split pushing - Khan would not go back when his teammates in front of him were about to be unable to withstand it, so he would lead the way to the end.

It is completely different from Samsung's idea of ​​winning through team battles.

But Edgar didn't panic at all.

Because he knows that in this version, it is difficult to end the game on the top lane simply by split-pushing.

Unless the opponent is an LPL local top laner.

It’s really not that Edgar looks down on the domestic top players on the opposite side.

But in terms of strength, it seems that Queshi is far inferior to the Korean style at the moment!

For example, in the second game, Cuvee took out a hand of Gnar, and when his opponent Letme refused to fight back and scolded him, he simply chose a path to lead to Black, successfully helping the team regain a victory!

"It's broken," Gu Xing, who was watching the game in the hotel, felt bad. "How should RNG do BP in the next game?"

Xia Luo's flaw was discovered by Samsung, and he couldn't deal with it on the road...

RNG is still playing hammer!

Not only Gu Xing, but everyone in the training room believed that RNG would definitely lose.

In this critical moment, the savior of the royal family comes.

"The Prince of Spicy Hot Pot EQed into the field from behind and hit Xiao Pao with his big move!"

The doll began to scream at the top of his lungs.

Before the prince took action, an eye-catching thick white shield appeared on the top of Jarvan IV's head.

It's the ultimate move from top laner Letme Shen!

Shen is about to enter the scene at this moment!

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Ruler first used R [Destroying Shot] to push the incense pot away, then used a rocket to jump and run backwards.

But after Letme landed, he handed over his E flash and successfully trapped Xiao Pao.

"Corejj tried his best to protect Ruler, but Uzi's damage was a bit explosive. After the big mouth opened the biochemical barrage, the range was improved, and it can be output to the small cannon from a long distance... Ruler was killed!"

The doll's screams echoed in the ears of VG members in the training room.

Samsung couldn't pick Feng Nu in this game, and its overall protection ability was slightly inferior. It was helpless in the face of the crazy rush of RNG members, and had to watch Ruler fall to the ground!

Cuvee's Nal, who teleported to the ground, had just the right amount of anger. After getting bigger, he flashed and slapped the three RNG players against the wall.

Even so, it couldn't save this team fight!

If the shooter dies first, Samsung cannot win.

There was a huge difference in damage between the two sides. In the end, RNG paid the price of three deaths and was able to defeat the team and win the Baron + Ancient Dragon.

Double Dragon will get it, and the balance of the situation will completely tilt towards RNG!

"You really dare to open the incense pot. If you can't avoid Sanxing's view, you just don't hide it and start the group from a distance directly from behind. It doesn't make sense at all!" Wawa was extremely excited.

The director showed a close-up shot of Xiangguo at the right time. In the picture, he clenched his fists and let out a roar, venting his inner emotions to his heart's content.

"Beautiful Liu Shiyu!" Gu Xing looked excited and couldn't help but applaud his friend.

"This version of Xiangguo is really cruel," Jack was also full of praise. "Hunger strike can be regarded as a game for him."

After the transformation, Liu Shiyu began to gradually transfer resources to his teammates and created a hunger strike routine of his own.

Gu Xing stole it and used it for himself. Although the effect was very good, it was still slightly inferior.

The jungle environment of the S7 World Championship is just right for a hunger strike. Herbivorous tank junglers with low equipment requirements occupy the stage, making Liu Shiyu like a fish in water!

His aggressive jungle invasion style can bring great pressure to the enemy, and he also has top-notch sense of team-fighting.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Xiangguo is the son of version!

It's a pity that my teammates are really weak.

After winning the third game and taking the lead in getting the match point with Xiangguo's forced team-start, RNG began to show its true colors in the fourth game.

Letme's Gnar was of no use at all, and his anger control was a mess, and he was firmly suppressed by Cuvee's AD Kenan!

"Why choose Nar?" Li Zhixun couldn't understand, "Don't you understand how to use your strengths and avoid weaknesses?"

You are playing Gnar in Letme, can he play?

I can’t play, I don’t have the ability!

Firefox's move seemed to be to relieve the BP pressure by grabbing the ban, but it actually sent itself into a deep pit!

Since we are all being suppressed anyway, we might as well choose a pure tank to protect our queue!

After Cuvee pulled out the space for the single lane on the wing, everyone in SSG seized the time to steal development and evened the disadvantage bit by bit through their skillful line switching skills.

In the end, RNG persisted for 55 minutes, but still lost to AD Kenan with the Liushen outfit. Unfortunately, they lost and were dragged into the BO5 decider!

"Silver Traces" was played for the first time in the S7 World Championship. Amidst the explosive and exciting music, the audience was not so excited.

Samsung is very resilient, as if it can't be defeated no matter how hard it is hit. After being knocked down, it can still stand up tremblingly and fight back!

When Gu Xing watched the live broadcast, he could still see the chaos in the chat channel.

[RNG won’t lose too, right? Damn it! The whole Chinese class was stunned! 】

[It’s bad, Uzi in the fifth game knows everything about it, An Bixin won’t be able to catch him at level 2, right? 】

[Xiaohu, please stop fooling around. Can you do something useful? I really beg you】

[Letme just be careful and give the ball to Uzi, okay? Believe in Uzi, he is our pride! 】

At the beginning of the decisive game, RNG fell into a hard battle.

Samsung became more and more courageous as they fought, and their condition was much better than in the first game of BO5.

This group of people has always been able to play bladder tactics. The main thing is that their energy is far beyond ordinary people. The arduous operation of forty or fifty minutes is not worth mentioning in front of them. It is just basic operation!

On the other hand, RNG played for nearly an hour in the last game. After four hours of fierce battle, their eyes were blurred. They were not in good shape at the beginning and did not have much advantage in the line.

Xiangguo tried his best to drive the rhythm of the whole game, but he was fighting alone and had no teammates who could stand up to help him!

Xiaohu in the World Championship understands everything. Even if Crown's strength declines seriously, it will have no problem handling Li Yuanhao.

Not to mention top laner Letme, he is indeed better than Cuvee as a tank, but Yan Junze's strength has fallen behind after the version change. Among the top eight top laners, he is basically competing with Mouse for last place.

The bottom lane is RNG's dominant line. Even if the duo cannot play Xia Luo and the team assumes the ban position, Uzi's laning strength is still online.

It's a pity it's useless.

Because this is the incense burner version.

Some people always say that the incense burner narrows the gap between the shooters on both sides. It seems that the ADC dominates the game, but in fact it has little to do with the shooters.

This view is very one-sided.

To be precise, the incense burner system is too strong and forces the supports to play protective soft assistants. The offensiveness of the line is reduced, and the protective ability is too strong, making it difficult for the duo to open up the situation based on the strength of the line.

What has been narrowed is the gap in laning strength between the two ADCs.

But at the same time, it magnifies the shooter's strength gap in team battles.

How to find a safe output position and inflict as much damage as possible. These two points have always been the basic skills of the ADC in team battles.

It’s just that with the support of the incense burner system, the requirements for shooters’ team fighting skills are even more stringent!

They say that if the Censer auxiliary dies, the team's teamfight will be unplayable.

The same goes for the shooter's death!

There are mostly tanks in this version. If the ADC is to die suddenly, you don’t have to expect someone like Prince Shen in the front row to bring an incense burner to kill all the opponent’s heroes, right?

Therefore, the incense burner system weakens the group of shooters who are good at laning pressure, allowing the ADC who already prefers team battles to reap dividends!

Unfortunately, Uzi suffered a serious blow.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that his laning strength is the best in the world.

If you don't press 30 knives, it means you are being pressurized.

However, after the incense burner became popular, Uzi and Shi Senming were able to press for a long time, but they couldn't get much more CS ahead of the opponent. His favorite card attack distance stealing point technique was of no use in front of the protective soft support!

The attack-speed shooter stole a few points in the early stage, but he still couldn't break the shield skill of his soft assistant!

Ruler's laning fault tolerance rate has been greatly improved. Park Jae-hyuk, who originally looked a little weak when he saw Uzi, got more energy and thrived in the bottom lane.

At the end of the team battle, Uzi sent it.

If Uzi's laning ability is 10 points, then his teamfight ability is about 7 points!

You can tell by looking at the highlights made by anti-fans. Except for the lane explosion when facing Mr. Dai and Zhurang, Uzi's sudden death was basically in the team battle, appearing in an inexplicable position and then being driven to Directly back to the spring water.

I can only say that my positioning habits have never been very good.

"What are you doing, puppy?!"

The Guangzhou Gymnasium echoed with the baby's grief-stricken wails.

After Uzi's mouse activated stealth, Diudiu wanted to run to the side of the three stars and start throwing and sucking. He turned on R [full firepower] and pierced the opponent into skewers.

As a result, he was discovered by SSG's true eyes halfway.

Crown was very focused. After seeing Uzi's figure slightly out of touch with the RNG formation, he immediately used Malzahar's cross-flash R [Grasp of Hades] to suppress the mouse in place!

Grasshopper was a relatively unpopular mid laner in the first half of the World Championship, with only a few appearances.

However, Sheng’s ability to clear waves in the mid-term is impressive, and he also has R to provide a stable contribution to the team.

Edgar also recognizes the fact that in late-stage team battles, the core is not as good as the shooter. Considering that Crown’s laning ability has declined seriously, choosing Rock Bird Ryze will not get lane rights and cannot roam to support, so he might as well play with him. Grasshopper's main focus is functionality.

At this time, Crown relied on the unexpected flash ultimate move and its own passive [Void Crossing] protective film to control Uzi for nearly a second, and then was interrupted by Xiangguo's control!

Uzi has no money to buy mercury straps, so he has no way to counterattack when he is determined by a grasshopper!

In one second, the well-trained Samsung threw all his control and damage skills at the mouse's head!

RNG can’t even protect itself!

Samsung’s team execution is terrifying!

"You puppy!" I remember letting out a scream, and I could faintly hear a hint of crying.

After Uzi died, the team battle showed a one-sided trend.

RNG's magic damage output point alone is not enough to defeat Samsung!

The royal family was defeated like a mountain!

After the team destroyed RNG, SSG didn't hesitate and bulldozed the enemy base in one wave!

3:2.

Samsung fought hard through five games to advance to the semifinals!

"I can only say congratulations to Samsung..." Wawa smiled bitterly, "My skills are not as good as others. RNG is indeed not as good as the opponent in team battles today."

"In just two days, both LPL teams were overthrown by the LCK team." I remember being distressed, "VG is the only one left!"

There was silence.

This Samsung team is not well-known in China, and its number of fans is very limited. It is impossible to win over RNG supporters if you grab tickets.

Now the whole place is filled with black and gold RNG flags. After experiencing the ecstasy of winning the first game, everyone can only watch Samsung go to the semi-finals with great disappointment.

SSG members hugged each other happily.

Defeating the strong enemy RNG is definitely something worth celebrating.

After all, as the third seed in the LCK, reaching the semi-finals counts as success!

Wawa and Remember looked at each other in silence. Finally, in line with their duties, they took a deep breath and said slowly, "I hope VG can perform stably tomorrow... This is our last hope in the LPL division!"

Both of them could hear the passionate shouting from the LCK commentary booth next door, and they immediately became even more depressed.

Jin Yibo, who had just walked into the training room and watched the decisive game with the VG players, was in a state of despair.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible..." he murmured, "How could RNG stop in the top eight?"

Jin Yibo has high hopes for the All-China Class.

He had already been mentally prepared for EDG's loss to Longzhu. The gap in hard power was there.

But RNG also won the top eight, which Jin Yibo couldn't accept!

Gu Xing comforted, "The timing of our encounter with Samsung this time is not very good. If we meet in the group stage, RNG will most likely win."

He wasn't just talking nonsense.

In the group stage, the top lane environment has not yet changed, and RNG’s favorite top laner, tank tank, is still understood in the front row.

If SSG is not fully prepared, RNG's Xia Luo flaw will not be discovered.

It is not difficult for the royal family to win the game.

But the two teams happened to meet in the knockout round. The version understanding at this time was undoubtedly greatly weakened for RNG!

Hongmi echoed, "Shu Gu is right...Samsung has also evolved after entering the knockout rounds. Their play style is more organized and they have found a path that suits them."

He has played against Samsung many times, and the opposite coach Edgar is also his teacher, and he has a lot of knowledge about SSG's playing style.

At this time, you can naturally smell Samsung's changes in play style.

Gu Xing also saw the changes in SSG and said thoughtfully, "Quie, Samsung's vision control today is simply outrageous. It seems that in the mid-term, as long as the supplement is out of the gate, only two or three people are needed, and RNG is blocked by eye position! ”

Including the last wave of Uzi's attempt to use the mouse to go around the side and use R to sneak a shot, but it was also detected by Samsung's real eye, which ruined the decisive game.

Hongmi took a look at the information sent by the E+ data team.

"225 true eyes, an average of 45 per game..." He raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw this.

SSG is a bunch of lunatics!

In a normal game, a team that invests an average of 20+ real eyes per game will pass.

Samsung doubled the amount!

Liangpi started to smoke in the VG training room.

"What an exaggeration," Jack muttered, "These people just drowned RNG with their real eyes!"

Hongmi signaled them to calm down and try to give the team some blood, "Don't worry about RNG for now. Take care of yourself. We are the only team left in the entire competition area. You must also know that there will be no mistakes in tomorrow's game!"< br>


Jin Yibo also came to his senses.

"That's right!" He cast his ardent eyes on every VG player, "I'm waiting to see your performance tomorrow. All the hopes of this World Championship in the LPL region are pinned on you!"

Gu Xing was well aware of the weight of the burden on his shoulders, and the eyes of the entire competition area were focused on him. He did not dare to slack off and quickly devoted himself to training.

What he doesn't know is that while VG is actively preparing for tomorrow's quarterfinals, major domestic e-sports forums have already experienced an explosion of interest!

Weibo was a little better. The apology blog posted by RNG after being eliminated received 70,000 comments that day, including comfort and encouragement. Some netizens told the team to target S8 and start studying the opponents for the next World Championship a year in advance.

The atmosphere is relatively peaceful.

It's different if you resist.

The firepower is very fierce.

There is a saying that the intensity of public backlash attracted by this kind of forum mainly depends on how many monsters the fans of the team have done before.

Rationally speaking, there is not much negative news about RNG right now.

It's just that the marketing of the All-China Class was a bit too much, which made some netizens disgusted, and there was an outrageous fan title incident.

It's still within the acceptable range for the traffic team.

It’s much better than blitzing Poland next door!

But even though RNG has not evolved into a contract team with unpaid wages, it is still sprayed to pieces in the anti-bar.

Just because there is Uzi on the team.

[The world’s number one Edici? Fans, please come out and take a few steps]

[Uzi is simply a super soldier. The mouse opens Q and walks forward in front of others, right? 】

[I’m still thinking about Bang and Imp. When did they hold back the team because of the hero pool? 】

[Perfect Wuxia is like this, even if you don’t choose Xialuo? Really cowardly! 】

[That’s it, look at VG taking out Xia Luo and casually torturing Samsung. Aren’t you Uzi very good? You can’t even play a simple hero like Xia Luo? 】

[To tell a joke, a player who doesn’t know how to play powerful heroes can be ranked number one in the world! 】

To be fair, Shi Senming also played an average BO5 game in this game, and was almost outmatched by Corejj.

However, with experience in writing Uzi, no one was interested in criticizing Xiao Ming, and they were all interested in criticizing Uzi.

Then the Uzi supporters went to spray him.

The story is probably that Hudaliobian started to show his appearance as soon as he arrived at the World Championship, and he was invisible in the whole game; Letme was too weak, and there was a gap in the matchup that was visible to the naked eye.

[Rang Di is a real talent. Your brother, Kainan Jesnar, is the top three top laner starting from the quarterfinals. You, Letme, only know half a Gnar, right? Xiaohu is playing with your B-breaking magic core, and the team's output ratio is just over 20%. Is this a stat that a human can produce? 】

[Can you play Galio and Grasshopper and see how the crown is played? 】

[Xiaohu knows Galio? I think it’s all Letme’s play, not to mention Grasshopper. In last year’s World Championship, Grasshopper used R to open Olaf, which was a hell of a scene]

[If Uzi hadn’t blocked the fire for you two, you would have been arranged to retire today! 】

As for Xiangguo, this quarterfinal match was considered a real effort.

RNG won a total of two small games, and the MVP went to Liu Shiyu.

He was on a hunger strike and could be said to be squeezing blood on an empty stomach, already showing off his peak state!

If it weren't for the fragrant pot, there's a high chance that both sides wouldn't be able to reach the decisive game!

Netizens could tell who was the best in the team, and they went to Liu Shiyu's Weibo to express their tears.

Others told him to hurry up during the transfer period and move to other teams if he can't bring his teammates with him, so as not to delay his peak period.

It was rare for Gu Xing not to pay attention to public opinion. After training, he had a good sleep. When he woke up again, it was already sunrise.

After taking a shower, I felt refreshed, put on my team uniform, put on my bag, and opened the door to prepare for my first BO5 in this World Championship.

This chapter has to talk about the content of the version to pave the way for the follow-up. PS: What do you say about the selection for the Asian Games?
