Chapter 94 Disciplinary flaws! 【7K added later】
"Welcome to the live broadcast of the 2022 lpl summer playoffs!" Guan Zeyuan's voice sounded loudly from the curtain: "The next thing that will be played is the first bo5 game of the double-elimination format, between EDG and BLG!"
Although the ban has not been lifted yet, the specifications have been raised for the playoffs, and the commentary team is a three-person team.
Partner Rita answered: "This will also be EDG's first appearance in this playoffs, it's worth looking forward to!"
Another partner, Wang Duoduo, talked about key anecdotes between the two teams: "Not long ago, during the regular season award selection, the YE player in the EDG team won three awards: first-team mid laner, regular season MVP and best rookie, becoming the first in LPL history. The first player to win the regular season MVP award in his first season! ”
"At the same time, today is also the day Scout player faces his old club again!"
Guan Zeyuan spoke for BLG and first created an atmosphere of close competition: "But now BLG is feeling hot. In the first three rounds of the playoffs, they defeated three strong opponents and advanced all the way to the semi-finals."
"Looking at EDG, we haven't seen the performance of YE players in BO5, and we still don't know who will win!"
The director's camera showed the cameras of both players' seats, and members of both sides appeared at the bottom of the screen.
The EDG five-man team looked quite natural, chatting and laughing.
But the BLG side looked serious, as if they were going to the battlefield.
Although the first half of the playoffs seemed smooth, in everyone's eyes, this is actually the most basic effect of this lineup.
The team was rebuilt in the spring split, strengthened in the summer split, and signed for the third time in the middle of the summer split. The money spent was at least among the top three in the league.
You can't just win the semi-finals of the playoffs and count it as success!
The top half of the draw is already considered a top draw. Of the three teams they faced before, only RNG was the most competitive, but it seemed to be acclimated to the playoff version and was in extremely poor condition.
What's more important is that the three teams BLG played before were all teams that were relatively less centered on the mid lane.
No one knows whether BLG can continue to implement its own style of play under EDG's strong offensive.
The director gave a comparison of the previous regular season data of the two teams.
The blue and white team logo of BLG and the black and gray of EDG are clearly distinct.
“BLG’s average game time is 31 minutes, which ranks in the middle of the game length, which is also in line with their current situation after signing,” Guan Zeyuan boasted, “And what needs to be emphasized is that in the latest playoff version , this average duration has been extended by at least 3-5 minutes”
"But on the other hand, the average duration on EDG is less than 24 minutes! This is definitely a very outrageous number!"
Wang Duoduo held up the headset: "The backstage director told us a very interesting piece of information. EDG's average game time is the shortest among the five major leagues!"
"There is no doubt that they are the best team in the world in using a strong offensive system. But because of this, we are even more curious about whether EDG will make some changes in the latest playoff version. This will be a challenge for them. A severe test! ”
If we really talk about the playoffs, there is actually only one update, version 12.14.
But this version directly led to a major change in the entire game ecology, and it can even be said to have completely changed the rhythm of the game!
Systemic changes are the weakening of all "laning items".
The first is {Red Potion}, {Reusable Potion} and {Corruption Potion}. The only three recovery medicines in the game have all had their recovery volume reduced by 20%!
Along with this, a series of defensive laning runes including {Biscuit Delivery}, {Skeleton Plating}, {Reviving Wind}, and {Time Warp Tonic} have all been weakened!
At the same time, the offensive runes {Sudden Impact} and {Scorch} have been strengthened!
The purpose of this change is self-evident, and the designer also bluntly said: "Since the durability update, the team has seen a significant drop in the number of kills in the early game, especially in the professional stage, so we want to make the laning phase of the game more bloody. 》
This change will have the greatest impact on the upper unit.
Because the mid laner can shrink the tower and roam for support, the bottom lane is a duo that can take care of each other, and only the top lane is a long-term island, relatively speaking, the most emphasis is placed on laning.
Combined with another important change: [Little Dragon].
All dragons will gain 1,000 health points before 2 dragons, and 2,000 health points after 2 dragons, and their health will increase by 1.5 times per minute!
This means that regardless of the advantages and disadvantages of any party, fighting the dragon will take much more time than before!
The current research strategy of teams in all major competition areas is to postpone the fight against the dragon group, and wait until the jungler is at level 6 for about 7 minutes before considering taking action.
Coupled with a series of hero changes, the current rhythm pattern has shifted from fighting in the lower half 8 minutes ago to fighting in the upper half.
Obviously, in the same seven or eight minutes, the value of the first little dragon is far from comparable to that of the first canyon.
This directly leads to——the most competitive teams in the top half have the offensive initiative!
Against teams with excellent laning strength in the lower half, it would be difficult to quickly settle the results.
This is actually an important reason why BLG was able to pass all the way in the playoffs and decisively chose Doggo who did not need to worry too much in the early stage.
The pre-game warm-up preview on the commentary desk is over.
With a sonorous and powerful crisp sound, the bp panel appeared on the big screen!
"BP has begun!"
"Since EDG ranks high in the regular season, they have the priority to choose the side in this BO5 game. First choose the blue side for yourself, and then ban Gwen first!"
In the last version of Gwen, all skill values were adjusted.
To put it crudely, it’s from the {laning version of Angel} to the {late version of Crocodile}!
The terrifying late-stage ability of the Q skill's 100% true damage conversion has been weakened, and in exchange, various early-stage numerical values have been adjusted.
From a late-game core who is not weak in laning → to a hero who is not weak in the late-game and can start to exert force in the early and mid-term, it is very suitable for the current version of the environment.
Although Holy Spear Brother can also play Gwen, his proficiency is obviously not as good as that of Bin, who is almost a must-ban player, so there is no need to release him.
"BLG put skateboard shoes in the ban position to reduce the pressure on the bottom lane, and EDG also banned Lenata to prevent the red team from getting the combination."
"It doesn't look like this. EDG didn't prepare to play the early bottom lane rhythm this time?" Guan Zeyuan explained the banning intentions of both sides.
"The last ban banned Galio, and BLG Duizi sent Akali to the ban position!"
Both parties prefer ban————
EDG: Gwen, Renata, Galio
BLG: Skateboard shoes, Enchantress, Akali
"EDG's first grab is Zeli! It depends on whether BLG wants to split the combination. Although Zeli has some numerical adjustments, she is still the top three AD hero in the current version!" Wang Duoduo speculated on the intention.
Guan Zeyuan agreed: "Especially in small-scale team battles, Zeli's level 6 ultimate move should be regarded as the most obvious improvement in combat effectiveness among all ADCs, right?"
"But BLG did not choose to grab support, but directly took the popular version of Monkey Brother and Wheel Mom!" Rita said while looking at the picture.
Before the wheel mom was redesigned, it had always been synonymous with snake oil. After the redesign, it became a no-brainer choice, both in terms of later protection and functionality.
The monkey's renewed popularity is due to the impact of Xiaolong's changes.
Now the first wave of large resource groups can basically wait until level 6 in the jungle. Monkey Brother’s level 6 is definitely a qualitative change for heroes.
As for EDG grabbing Zeli, they actually wanted to see if the opponent would grab the cat.
Because of the cat’s heroic characteristics, he is destined to be a hero who “cannot roam”.
BLG's tactical system in the playoffs is not complicated. It is to choose a stable development combination in the bottom lane, let support Liu Qingsong choose hard support and wait for opportunities to roam, and use his own advantageous lane to attack the top half.
BLG obviously still wants to stick to its own ideas this time.
"EDG defeated Xin Zhao and Silas! The mid laner confidently goes first. This is also a very strong mid and jungle combination!"
“But we’ve already taken Zeli, why don’t we take the cat? You’ll definitely be banned in the second round!”
"YE player Silas has appeared in the regular season, but not many times."
Everyone in BLG is also very confused.
As the commentary desk said, Silas Yebo played very little in the regular season before, and his proficiency performance was very average.
Moreover, this hero will have great restrictions when it comes out first. If you take it out on the first three floors, the opponent will not be stupid. In subsequent selections, heroes with powerful ultimate moves will definitely be avoided as much as possible.
However, this restriction is actually two-way.
For example, right now, Kennen and Nar Gold Balm in the top lane, Ahri Ice Girl in the middle lane, and all the hard assistants in the support lane will also be restricted.
"Ignore them, we will select normally and ban Mao and Lulu in the second round." Head coach Char Siu made a prompt decision and implemented his own successful tactics.
"Is there anything you want to grab first in the upper middle? If not, get the support first."
"It's okay, I have a lot of heroes." Chen Zebin shook his head confidently.
Socut hesitated.
BLG's BP idea for this game is actually to give Ye Bo heroes like Rock Bird and Yongen who are not strong in melee combat in the early stage to strengthen their competitiveness in the top half.
Unexpectedly, Silas exited directly from the front three floors!
In the end, the red side won Titan first on the third floor and entered the second round of ban.
EDG: Crocodile, Gnar
BLG: Lulu, cat
Both sides have relatively formulaic combinations that ban the remaining positions.
Guan Zeyuan looked at the vacant position and speculated: "Because the mid laner has already been released, BLG should also have a mid laner on the fourth floor. EDG did not target Zoe in the second round of BP!"
“It’s an interesting matchup between the junior champion skin and EDG!”
Wang Duoduo thought and commented: "Zoe's hero attributes are also in line with the combat power requirements of the upper half. If she cooperates with the monkey, she will definitely be able to fight the opponent in a 2v2 fight. Both sides are heroes with excellent fighting ability!"
Rita added the well-known common sense: "And Zoe's ultimate move is not afraid of being stolen. Silas will be very weak if he steals this ultimate move!"
The two male commentators praised: "Indeed, indeed!"
EDG didn't seem to be affected by the opponent's selection, and the selection was completed immediately the moment the floors were exchanged.
A yordle and a figure that resembled a yordle locked up one after another.
In the Huya UZI live broadcast room, Uzi, who was wearing pink headphones to commentate, saw this choice and his eyes suddenly widened.
"Kainan Jia Mu Mu!"
"Wow, no wonder I wonder why EDG didn't rush to pick cats in front. It turns out that this game is not for the bottom lane at all. They want to fight in a team!"
"EDG's lineup is a scary teamfight thief! BLG definitely didn't expect this BP. I feel that the choice of sending Sylas first to suppress your top and middle units is also the same. This BP feels like it has been exploded again!"
Uzi used his own understanding of the game to explain to the audience, seemingly inadvertently emphasizing the word "again".
He casually saw the colorful barrage flooding the screen.
"If you're not brothers, why would anyone ask the anchor who he supports? Then the anchor must support BLG!"
“It’s really difficult for BLG to choose the top lane now.”
As early as the end of last year, Mumu had a minor redesign and changed the Q skill bandage to a mechanism that can store 2 layers. Mumu's assistance has begun to appear in the passerby game.
In this year's 2022 Summer Split, Mumu's support has become one of the mainstream choices. His excellent large AOE control ability and team-starting ability are as good as any hard support.
But few people would pair Zeli with Mumu.
Because these two are heroes who rely heavily on ultimate moves, if they encounter the opponent's bottom lane and choose a stronger laning combination, they will have little power to fight back.
But in this game, BLG obviously didn't prepare to play the bottom lane, and the Titans were already in a lineup that wanted to roam around each other.
In this way, the problem of the combination's weak laning will naturally disappear. Just as Uzi said, Chen Zebin rummaged through the top laner character pool with dancing eyebrows, but he couldn't find a suitable choice.
"No, I feel like I can't win this team battle no matter what I choose, right?"
Char Siu knows his favorite general that he has followed for three years very well, and he knows exactly what is left in the opponent's hero pool in this final BP situation.
Weapon, Sword Girl, Qinggang Shadow, Captain.
It actually looks like a lot, but the first three are all the same type of heroes, and the captain will lose some of his early half-zone combat effectiveness.
"We won't be playing a team game this time. You can decide what you want to play. Choose a lane that can be used in small-scale fights and single-player situations."
"There is no problem with our competitiveness in the half of the zone. We will play at a normal pace and coordinate in the early stage."
Barbecued pork made a simple tactical arrangement.
Chen Zebin shrugged. He was very confident in his duel with Holy Spear Brother and felt that he could choose from all four.
On the contrary, he was extremely wary of Silas on the opposite side, and it was because of this that he did not rush to grab Kenan so early.
In the end, he chose a hero who was relatively easy to beat Kennen, not afraid of Xin Zhao ganking, and whose ultimate was least useful against Sylas.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The lineups of both sides are confirmed.
"Blue: EDG丨丨Red: BLG"
[Top order: Furious Heart vs. Peerless Swordswoman]
[Jungle: Manager Debon vs Monkey King]
[Mid laner: Liberator vs Twilight Star Spirit]
[Archer: Zaun Hanabi vs. Goddess of War]
[Auxiliary: Mummy of Sorrow vs Titan of the Deep Sea]
"Come on, come on, bro, cheer for BLG!" Uzi waved his hand in the live broadcast room to prove his position.
Although the outside world does not know that he has actually terminated his contract with BLG, after all, he has just left. If he immediately changes his face towards his old club Sichuan Opera, he will definitely be criticized again.
When both parties break up peacefully, most of them will leave each other alone. This is actually normal.
The person who can make the team not even want to send Seeyougain when they break up is rare in the world!
However, after all, I was beaten violently against EDG when I was in the team. If I left, I would actually win.
Uzi looked at the screen nervously.
The official live broadcast room is still analyzing the matchup, especially looking at the middle lane where disputes are most likely to break out.
"Scout's lead is to ignite Ga'aili's lane and maximize the lane. It's very fierce! Zoe, the last pick, is used to beat you, Silas, in the lane!" Guan Zeyuan was very excited, looking at today's capture. To the persona that was stolen.
"What the YE players bring seems to be the most normal choice. They don't carry ignition."
Wang Duoduo rationally analyzed: "Silas should be at a disadvantage against Zoe in the lane. Zoe's E skill can almost guarantee that she will hit the backhand while taking advantage of Silas' E. It feels difficult to exchange for blood, so bring a TP. It is reasonable to stabilize the early stage.”
In terms of pure 1v1 laning, Silas's laning against Zoe is at least 40-60.
This is also inevitable, otherwise Scout would not be selected later.
Silas in this game is mainly to suppress the strategic significance of lineup selection. Naturally, there is no need to compete in a disadvantaged matchup. Silas has his own advantages.
Obviously, it can be seen from BP alone that EDG has conducted deep research on BLG.
"Hey EDG, it looks like they want to mess with the bin!" Uzi sat up in shock.
The lineup of both sides only has one auxiliary control, which seems unlikely to be able to fight a first-level team, so BLG only uses a normal one-word long snake formation position.
But it can be seen from God's perspective.
After the EDG five-person group went out, they all walked to the upper half of the area.
When Ye Bo reviewed BLG's game, he focused on the linkage between the team's top laner and jungle position. This is what they seem to be best at.
He discovered that Bin had a "bad habit" when taking a first-level position on the red side.
Due to map differences, the red side's top lane actually has a defensive advantage at level one, just like the blue side's bottom lane.
As for the normal first-level position of the single and gang on the red side, it is usually to squat in the triangle grass and wait peacefully until the line of troops comes online.
But 22-year-old Bin is different.
As long as he is not at a disadvantage in the matchup and is a hero who can show off, he will often walk out of the grass, go to the river or go deep into the jungle, seeking to gain more advantages in positioning.
This is determined by his style of play. If he can gain a little more advantage, he will not be willing to lose a point.
And this Sword Lady carries the QQ flow of {Grasp of Immortality} + {Witchcraft}, so she may want to wait for the opportunity to Q to stack a stack of {Mana Flow Thin Belts}.
Sword Girl walked into the triangle grass, and as expected, she didn't stop and walked straight into the river.
He ran into Kenan, the Holy Spear brother, coming from the river below.
Kennan threw his Q from a distance and was twisted away, so he gave in and immediately pulled back, refusing to engage in a stand-up fight with the opponent.
Sword Lady didn't chase him, she just pressed S and stood at the river mouth to confront him, fully controlling the view of the river mouth.
It looks quite impressive!
"It's broken, Bin! Stop showing off!" Uzi seemed anxious and wanted to remind him through the screen.
But Sword Girl still didn't realize the danger was coming.
Because at this moment, the other three people who passed by the military line had already detoured to the second bush of the upper military line.
Seeing Sword Lady's position, the three of them continued to walk around to the three bushes, and then touched down from above against the wall.
When Chen Zebin saw the three people walking out from behind, his eyebrows jumped rapidly.
"What are these people doing!?"
He clicked the Q skill [Air-Breaking Slash] in seconds.
The only control on the opposite side that can save people is a dull Q. Based on his reaction, it is obviously impossible to hit from this distance.
Although the other party came close to the wall, it was still a long way away and there was no threat at all
But at this moment.
A plundering chain filled with magical power suddenly flew out from the triangular grass in the back!
The shot without vision came from behind, so there was no reaction time at all!
Sword Princess was knocked away for 0.75 seconds.
Amumu's Q skill has a length of 1100 yards. In fact, it has already reached the distance, but Meiko still decisively handed over the flash!
If you don't use this flash, the moment Sword Princess breaks out of control, it is possible to use Q flash to instantly widen the distance.
The sticky bandage flew out at close range, binding the Sword Princess firmly and causing her to be stunned for 1 second - glacier speed bumps were also shot out of the ground at the same time!
Wait until Sword Princess breaks away from control and slashes through the air toward the defense tower above.
But stepping on the speed bump of the glacier's growth, there is no distance at all!
Xin Zhao charged fearlessly, Amumu and Silas continued to stay close, and Kenan and Zeli also followed up with Ping A.
Chen Zebin, who understood, was grinding his gums up and down, his face was dark, knowing that Amumu still had a Q on his hand waiting for him to flash, he was already unable to operate after being controlled like this!
In the end, I had to choose not to cross and give up the struggle to avoid being chained.
"Nais!" Ye Bo shouted encouragement.
"You eat, you eat, we won't fight in the bottom lane." Meiko shouted back quickly.
Since Jian Ji had no intention of fighting, everyone in EDG had even begun to divide the spoils.
Since Amumu flashed like this, he was no longer prepared to play the bottom lane. Anyway, it would be difficult to use a wheel on the opposite side to gank in the lane.
What's more, the main battlefield is obviously in the upper half.
In the end, Kenan A fired a dart with the team logo on it and decapitated the Sword Princess!
"Too bad!" Guan Zeyuan let out a mournful cry: "The head was still given away by Qian. Although Sword Girl didn't use more skills, it was still a big loss!"
"Isn't this wave of Bin position a little unnecessary to go out? Actually!" Wang Duoduo hesitated to speak.
"It was a bit accidental." Rita thought for a while and then said: "But it doesn't feel like EDG was just a blind cat. It should have been studied?"
Wang Duoduo was convinced: "This is definitely a study of the player Bin. When Silas went out, his position was obviously aimed at the card's field of vision!"
"Silas uses the E skill to rush into the dragon pit first, wait for the Sword Lady to come out, and then use the E skill to go up the wall and strike steadily from behind. There is no risk at all."
"This wave of EDG surrounded Sword Girl from three directions, and Sword Girl had already stepped into a trap from the moment she stepped out of the grass!"
"But in fact, as long as Sword Lady squats in the triangle grass and doesn't move, she shouldn't be able to catch her."
Wang Duoduo, who was outspoken, finally expressed his judgment that Bin was ill this time.
【Too baby! Will play dirty tricks! Insidious Glacier Amplification! 】
[The case has been solved. Brother Bin is a dog protector. He just wants to prove that being unable to beat him is really not AD’s problem! 】
[Really, Mr. Bin has a dream, he warms me up and makes me cry]
[Quickly knock Gouba down, it’s just a violation of discipline! You have to pretend, you have to pretend. If you don’t pretend, you feel uncomfortable, are you looking down on my holy gun brother? What kind of champion are you? 】
[It’s all wrong, don’t look at what skin Brother Holy Spear is using? This wave is when Song Bin sees his skin, and suddenly the red temperature takes him back to two years ago in his dream~】
[Suddenly I realized that the two people in the middle seemed to be playing with each other's body! 】
Uzi in the second live broadcast room really explained for Bin: "To be honest, it's not a big problem. If Kennen takes the lead and Sword Princess doesn't have skills, the laning won't change much. Bin's laning strength is nothing to say. ! ”
"With EDG's dedication in the bottom lane, BLG still has a chance to do something in the bottom lane, provided there are no surprises in other lanes."
"Scott should have an advantage in this matchup in the middle. Well, that should be the case, right?"
Uzi's tone didn't seem very firm.
However, the ‘other ways’ he mentioned had already been automatically translated by the barrage.
And at this time.
A voice came from EDG's team voice.
"Plan goes!"
Sorry, today’s card number was up to 7200.
If you work hard tomorrow, you should be able to finish writing this
