Alliance: I really didn't mess around!

Chapter 137 Maliciousness from the Designer
"Today's meeting is mainly to discuss the MSI version, and then briefly introduce the opponent." Banbazi explained: "We are on vacation for three days, so we have to quickly adapt to the new version."

Even the former Samsung Blue coach has rich game experience, but he was a little nervous when facing the MSI game.

The MSI game is the first time for everyone here.

After all, this competition was newly established last year, and only EDG has experience in the entire LPL, and EDG also won the MSI championship last year.

This year's team has been replaced by QG. If they fail to win the championship, it is estimated that they will be liquidated by EDG fans.
At that time, I'm afraid there will be disgusting people saying "Let EDG go and win".

After all, what the audience likes is not sports and competition, but championships.All popularity is based on the championship, as long as you can win, then you deserve to have the stars and the moon.

But once you lose, the backlash will be even greater.

Of course, there is no problem with this, after all, there are pros and cons.

After all, wouldn’t it be good for you to keep winning?Isn't it because of lack of strength that he was sprayed?

"The MSI competition system is very simple. The first round is the group stage, with a total of six teams participating."

It is still only 2016, and many wild card divisions have not yet reached scale, so there are only six teams participating in MSI.

Banbazi flipped through the PPT, and a table was displayed on the second page, showing the six teams participating in the group stage and their divisions.

North American LCS - CLG.

European LCS - G2.

LPL - QG.

LCK - SKT.

LSM - Lightning Wolves FW.

And finally, the only wild card division.

IWC (Turkey Division) - SUP.

Banbazi said: "For the other five teams, we can ignore the Turkish team. The two European and American teams, the Korean team, and the LMS team are the targets we need to pay attention to."

"Of course, it's useless to say this now. There will definitely be a training match with them in the future. We will learn about the specific situation after the training match."

Banbazi continued to flip through the PPT and saw the content about the version update.

"MSI is using version 6.8, which has been launched on the national server two days ago. Compared with the 6.6 version of our playoffs, two versions have passed, and the changes have changed a lot, so I have a few key points in this circle. come out."

"First of all, there is a hero that needs attention, the sword girl Irelia, there is a wave of big enhancements in this version"

Before the words finished, Chen Dongqing frowned slightly.

Dao Mei is a hero, he really doesn't have much proficiency.

The main reason is that his proficiency in sword girls is basically on the new sword girls after S8, but he has not played the old sword girls for several years, so how could he be proficient.

The point is, the difficulty of this hero is not low, it cannot be learned overnight, and because this hero is difficult to compete in the game, so he has not practiced.

But now the words.
What kind of enhancement is it that allows him to get the attention of professional teams?

Q [Blade Impact]

Mana consumption decreased by ten points, AD bonus increased from 1.0 total attack power to 1.2 total attack power.

"Damn it." Chen Dongqing frowned slightly: "Isn't this strengthening too much?"

Daomei's Q skill is his soul skill, this Q directly adds 0.2 bonus, isn't this going to heaven?
That means, now you can directly kill ranged soldiers with one Q without too much attack power, so as to gain flexible displacement ability.

In this way, it is indeed a lot more comfortable in terms of laning and single belt.

"I don't need to say more about this." Banbazi said: "Chen Dongqing has practiced recently, and you like this kind of flashy hero, so the sword girl should be fine, right?"

Chen Dongqing: "."

"Then, top lane has Poppy and Ike nerfs"

Poppy's passive casting range has been reduced by 100, E skill's casting distance has been reduced by 425, all reduced to [-] points, and Q skill damage has been weakened.

The basic damage of Ike's W and E has been slightly weakened, but the AP bonus has been increased. Obviously, it is to kill Ike.

"At the same time, we also need to look at the weakening of talents and equipment and the weakening of Ekko together, because they usually appear together."

Feast CD increased from 25 seconds to 30 seconds, Grasp of the Undying lifesteal reduced from 3% of maximum health to 2.5% of maximum health.

(Feast is a talent, and its attribute is to restore 20 points of blood when killing a unit.)
Corruption Potion restores HP reduced from 150 to 125, Ice Fist's Spellblade base damage decreased from 125% base attack power to 100%,

Although these series of weakenings were not large, they were all slashed on the top Dan Rou Ike one by one.

But it is also understandable. After all, Ike's performance in the playoffs of the major major regions is really too impressive. It is not a must-choice existence, and it is understandable to cut it.

Chen Dongqing was quite happy to see these weakenings. After all, Bobby and Ike don't like to play, so it's good to nerf them, so that Ike won't be disgusting every day on the road guarding the tower.

"Then, it's the mid lane change." Banbazi continued flipping through the PPT, "Galio Enhancement"

E skill damage slightly increased, mana decreased, movement speed bonus increased.
This kind of thing is not the main point, so the coach just brushed it off.

"Then the jungle position, male gun, leopard girl, and Qian Jue are all slightly weakened."

These weakenings are only numerical, and it doesn't hurt or itch. Should these junglers play or play.

But at this moment, the coach suddenly raised his mouth and said, "But there is one point that needs attention. The bloodthirsty of the warlord has also been weakened."

Lifesteal for minions changed from a fixed 50% to 50% for melee heroes and 25% for ranged heroes.

In other words, the effect of bloodthirsty laning for long-range heroes is cut in half.

That's right, it's aimed at the top lane bloodthirsty male gun!

After Chen Dongqing created a wave of enthusiasm for this thing, it has occasionally appeared in major leagues, and it is extremely shameless.

Now that this knife is cut down, it can be regarded as cutting off the top single male gun.

Chen Dongqing sighed a little, but he couldn't do anything about it, he knew that this was just something that would definitely happen in history.

"The last thing is to go down the road. There is only one key point in the bottom road, and that is to strengthen the life master."

The base movement speed is increased by 5 points, the life recovery is increased, and the passive fourth shot will critically hit the defense tower.

This kind of enhancement will obviously make the life master who has a high appearance rate suddenly become a popular choice.

"This time it's an important point." The coach said, "Jane is proud to pay attention."

I have to say that this is indeed a noteworthy issue, because Uzi doesn't seem to like this kind of hero with extremely slow attack speed, so he has always been lacking in interest in Jhin.

Uzi nodded upon hearing this.

"And then, the most important change." Banbazi cut the screen to the last scene of the PPT and said, "Adjustment of death time!"

The changes are simple: reduced the respawn time between 30 minutes and 55 minutes.

At the same time, the designer also made a warm reminder under this line of changes:
"We've also changed the countdown to death so that you don't lose the game by accidentally losing a teamfight when you're ahead by thousands of gold. This scenario sounds very special, but it's more likely than you Much higher than expected."

The change is simple and clear, which is to minimize the possibility of a mid-term miracle team comeback, and also increase the capital for the team to operate the game in the later stage.

Weaken fights and encourage operations.

In the past, the time to win a wave of regiments may be able to dismantle a defensive tower + barracks, but now it is only enough to dismantle a defensive tower.

Coach banbazi began to analyze:

"I have detailed data here. Since this change, the average game duration of ranked games has increased by 1 minute and 43 seconds as a whole."

"Although this statistic is not much, but qualifying is fast-paced, and this statistic is already quite scary. If it is in a slow-paced professional game, the impact of this change will only be greater!"

Banbazi's eyes are serious: "I boldly predict that in this MSI, the late-stage mages like Victor and Tsar may have an increased appearance rate. I have to say, this is actually a bad news for our team. information."

For their QG team, the most advantageous weapon is the 41-point push in the middle of the game. Their early offensive ability is one of the best.

This ability is directly reflected in the game time. Their average game time is 26 minutes and 30 seconds. On the LCK side, ROX, who has the strongest offensive ability, has an average game time of nearly 10 minutes.

This weakening is undoubtedly beneficial to the operation team and weakens the reckless team that focuses on the early and mid-term.

Of course, the specific situation of this change is still unknown, and it still depends on the development.

Immediately afterwards, banbazi analyzed some minor changes, and then asked the players for their opinions from time to time.

After the meeting lasted for more than an hour, it slowly stopped.

"This point is just my judgment based on my personal understanding." Banbazi finally began to summarize: "For the specific situation, we still have to wait until the 6.8 ranking data is stable and we will know after the training match."

"So, let's all take action, let's all get involved in qualifying to feel the version, the game is approaching, and we don't have much time!"

In the next few days, QG moved into the hotel training arranged by Riot, where there are all rooms and training rooms.

After the game started, even QG on their own territory had to stay in the hotel honestly. This mainly focused on fairness on the surface.

(Actually, I am not very clear about this, but I searched online. When the S10 World Championship was held in Shanghai, the LPL team stayed in a hotel. I wrote this MSI according to this rule.)
At this time, the participating teams from other competition areas have basically landed in Shanghai, and the number of QG training games has increased significantly.

Taking advantage of this period of time, QG can be regarded as finding out the strength of the remaining five teams.

First of all, the Turkish team is indeed as imagined, so we don't need to talk about it directly.

Secondly, North American CLG, European G2, and LSM Flash Wolves have roughly the same level of strength. Anyway, QG has an advantage against them.

If it is against these teams, QG is confident that it can win.

Of course, it doesn't make any sense to win against these teams. If you want to win the championship, SKT will have a hard time passing it.

And if you face SKT in the training match, the winning rate is actually not ideal.

I have to say, as a two-time championship team, as a team with Faker, the strength of this team is still too abnormal, and the disadvantageous operation is impenetrable.
Even for the current QG, against SKT, the winning rate is only [-]%, and even [-]-[-] is difficult to achieve.

The reason for the low winning rate is actually very simple. The first is that QG can't pass the old man time.

Doinb's two unique skills, Titan and Rambo, can't get much benefit from the old man Time, and they are directly treated as toys. Before finding a new hero, they can only consider banning Time.

The second reason is the result of the revision of the resurrection time. Sure enough, this change has a negative impact on QG.

SKT itself is a Korean team that focuses on defensive counterattacks. This change to reduce the resurrection time is simply tailor-made for them.

Compared with the spring split, SKT will choose more heroes such as Tsar, Jhin, Wheel Mom, Qian Jue, and even the little murlocs, who will play a defensive counterattack.

(This version is very strong in the late stage)
With their mature style of play, SKT can easily drag the game time beyond 30 minutes.

At this time, QG's offense will suddenly become constipated. Even if they win the team, it will be difficult to do things. Many times, they rely on the early offense to lead the economy by four or five thousand, but they can't even get to SKT. the highlands.

Well, this scene was often seen in the LPL vs. LCK in the previous life.

If you lead by four or five thousand, you won't be able to go up to the opposite high ground, but if the opposite party leads by less than one thousand, you can easily break you three ways.

In terms of operational thinking, the young QG is far behind the sophisticated SKT.

After more than 40 minutes of the game, after the C position reached the magic outfit, QG's early fighting heroes began to appear weak, and the game entered the rhythm of SKT.

For this situation, coach Banbazi frowned, still looking for a solution.

Can't attack in the early stage.

So is it necessary to choose a late-stage hero and compete with SKT in terms of game operation ability?
This is even more courting death!

For a while, the situation was still a little frozen.

The time soon came to the day before the opening of MSI, and the team still hadn't found a good way.

"It's okay, it's okay, you can find a solution slowly." Linko relieved the pressure from the side, and said: "The game will start tomorrow, everyone should rest well, we are the hosts, and we are going to play the first game!"

"OKOK." Chen Dongqing lay on the gaming chair with a calm expression. He listened to the manager's words, turned around and said good night to his teammates, and then returned to his hotel room.

Lying on the bed after washing, Chen Dongqing thought a lot.

His face was calm, it was all pretended in front of the team.

In fact, he is under a lot of pressure right now.

He understands the predicament the team is in now. It's very simple. It's nothing more than the fact that the early attack can't open enough wounds. Even if they take the advantage, they can't turn it into a victory.

And the offensive points of QG in the early stage are nothing more than the troika, the linkage between the middle and the wild, the division of the top road, and the push tower of the bottom road.

As long as the three carriages can run smoothly, winning is easy.

But the problem is, SKT is not EDG.

Needless to say, the first carriage with Nakano linkage was directly pressed to death by a Faker.

What about the second carriage?

Uzja Liu Qingsong can still play against deft and meiko, but now facing SKT's wolf stick, he can't get any benefits.

The bang of S6 is the existence called the perfect AD template, not to mention the hexagonal warrior, the Korean wolf wolf, and the existence of Shiyi's support, only Yuanshen brother can wrestle with him.

In fact, it is already quite difficult for QG to be able to balance the power in the bottom lane.

Two of the three carriages have been scrapped, but what about the last one?

Also had a hard time running.

Duke is just too solid.

As the owner of Ike's champion skin, Chen Dongqing was amazed by his defensive ability after getting Ike.
Even Ike, who has been weakened by a circle as a whole, is still an existence that is difficult for Chen Dongqing to break through
In this way, the low winning rate is inevitable.

To some extent, SKT's current team style restrains QG.

But for the current Chen Dongqing, he could no longer care about his teammates. His first task was to run his own carriage.

How to break Duke?

As Chen Dongqing thought about it, sleepiness gradually struck.

In a daze, he thought of a way.

But he can't be sure yet, and needs to be verified.

Let's wait until the group stage is over!
The most important thing right now is to be ready for the battle and to finish the group stage ahead!

Chen Dongqing turned over, let the quilt wrap her body tightly, and fell into a deep sleep.

Well. The bed in the hotel is too soft to sleep comfortably.

　Two more [-] words are presented, MSI will be opened tomorrow, see you guys tomorrow
