LOL I don't know how to be a coach

Chapter 178 The semi-final begins (seeking subscription)
From the second round of the group stage, there were no Korean teams in training matches, so edg has been playing training matches with Royal Family and OMG.

The royal family was eliminated in the top eight, and they didn't go back immediately, but stayed and continued to play training games with edg and omg.

Just like what the fans said, the top four teams now have two Korean OGN teams and two domestic LPL teams. It's a real China-Korea duel.

No matter if they are fans, including passers-by, commentators, and professional players, they are all looking forward to the domestic team being able to win this World Championship.

It can be seen from the number of posts on Tieba and the many comments from fans on Weibo that the commentators also live in the same hotel as the players and make suggestions together.

October 2014, 10, ten o'clock in the middle of the night.

Zhang Liang called everyone in EDG to start the first group meeting before the semifinals.

After everyone sat down, Zhang Liang turned on the computer and began to talk about the content of today's meeting.

"We all know that the team from South Korea's ONG is no longer training with us. The World Championship is now at the stage of fighting for bayonets. Every team is doing its best to make further progress, and at the same time, it will not be defeated by other teams. Discover."

To deepen the understanding of the version, in addition to relying on the coaching staff and players of your own team, use a large amount of data and game videos for analysis.

Another way is the influence of opponents in training matches.

Often play training games with teams with a deeper understanding of the version, and your own version understanding will naturally improve.The opposite is also true, which is why Zhang Liang didn't go to the South Korean team at this point in time.

"We don't have a stronger team for us to learn from now, so we have to study the version through a lot of replays and game data analysis," Zhang Liang said while turning the pen in his hand.

"Mmmm", Firefox kept his head down remembering things.

"Let's take a look at the second match between Samsung White and the Royal Family in the quarterfinals," Zhang Liang continued, "Let's take a look at their BP thinking..."

Zhang Liang opened the first picture in the computer, which was the bp picture of that game.

"On the red side, the royal family bans Bull Head, Old Man Time, and Ryze, and the three-star white is Lucian, the blind monk, and the big tree. There is nothing to say about the ban here. They are all regular bans, but the three-star white dominates the selection. The advantage is too great.”

"Samsung Bai grabbed the poodle directly to highlight a purpose, targeting uzi, the puppy in the bottom lane," Zhang Liang said: "Because the royal family's tactics are very simple, relying on uzi the puppy to carry, but this is only on the surface, we have to continue Go down and find something deeper."

"The opponent chose a hero like poodle who can start a team against ADC. The royal family thought that the opponent's goal was to go down, so they chose Thresh. The reason why they didn't choose Fengnv here may be because they were worried about Mata's Thresh on the opposite side. It can also be regarded as replacing ban with robbery."

"Next to the second selection, when Lucian was banned by the bottom lane ADC, there are really not many heroes suitable for Uzi. There are only two options left: Cannon and Airplane. The royal family did not choose AD but chose the middle lane first. Jess."

"Let's not talk about what the royal family thinks. Looking at Samsung Bai's next two-handed pick, he directly took out the mouse and Fengnv. It is a very conventional choice. These two are also the most frequently used heroes by Samsung Bai. But here It's different, the royal family obviously didn't expect this, they thought that the poodle selected by Samsung and a half would be the bottom lane, and the combination of the mouse and the wind girl is the bottom lane combination that must change lanes, unless the prince has a big mouth here This kind."

Zhang Liang looked up, EDG was used to this kind of situation, it was like Zhang Liang was lecturing on the stage, while the others listened carefully in the audience.

"The royal family has no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to choose, taking down Mantis and Airplane. The lineup has become a poke lineup, so they can only play in the early and mid-term."

"Bp is over, Samsung White is Rambo, Poodle, Male Swordsman, Mouse and Wind Girl, while the royal family is Mondo, Praying Mantis, Jess, Airplane and Thresh."

"Can you see where the problem is?" Zhang Liang also asked the team members first. Their understanding of the game is more of instinct or subconsciousness after long-term training.

Nami was the first to answer the question, "The royal family cannot protect the plane."

"What about the rest?"

"The lineup of the royal family didn't cooperate," Ming Kai said while sitting on a chair, "especially the jungler. Jess hits the male sword in the middle lane. He must be pressing the line in the early stage. Mantis has no chance. If you catch the bottom lane, you are afraid of the opposite poodle Back squat."

"Yes", Zhang Liang agreed with Ming Kai's opinion, "So the mantis can only go on the road, and it can also limit the development of Rambo by the way."

"However, Rambo's ability to cooperate with the jungler is too poor. If he wants to hurt or not, he must control it and not control it. He even has to worry about being counter-killed. That is to say, there is nowhere for the jungler mantis of the royal family to go. This is what Samsung White BP often thinking."

Zhang Liang unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and took a long gulp.

"Samsung Bai's bp seems to limit the bottom lane, but in fact they are trying to suppress the royal jungler Insek's performance as much as possible. Cooperating with their vision control, it is completely possible for Mantis to find no chance to do things. The rhythm of the game The initiative is now in the hands of Samsung White."

"And here in the mid-term team battle, Samsung White's Rambo ult combined with the male sword and the poodle can definitely start a team from a long distance, and kill anyone in the royal family first." Zhang Liang turned his pen, "There is no direct pull, It won’t let the Royal Family’s poke system work.”

"Actually, the royal family's BP idea is not wrong. So what is the reason for the royal family's loss?"

"One is because the lineup is not suitable for the style of the team. The five players of the Royal Family and the two players of Corn Coke in the middle and upper lanes are similar to u's style and belong to the steady development type. With a hero like Jess, you can't play The effect is that it has no effect at all, which is why Samsung Bai dared to choose the male sword."

"Secondly, they don't have enough information about the version heroes. You can see that Samsung White will always be the bottom laner to guarantee the late stage, and the upper middle field will support the early and mid-term. Therefore, their top laners rarely have big trees, and they are all Rambo and Ryze. Heroes like Angel and the mid laner will not wind up these heroes.”

"The pace of the World Championship is obviously faster than when we played domestically in the Summer Championship," Zhang Liang said: "The royal family may have realized this, but they discovered it too late, and the player's hero pool is obviously not enough, even the hero pool of five players is not enough! "

"Third, there is no research on the game of League of Legends. At most, the analysis is at the level of heroes, and the lowest level of League of Legends is not analyzed. If you learn from other teams, you only see heroes, and you can't see how other teams play the game. You can’t even come up with a complete tactic, it’s only up to the individual players to perform.”

"At the end of the fight, it will always become four guarantees and one... Oh, there will be a double fat tank of the big tree Ryze."

"I'll sort out the data of the group stage and the quarter-finals for you to see." Zhang Liang turned to the next page on his computer. "Besides us, Samsung White also has a variety of tactics, and has been trying different heroes and tactics. Take a look. You can see that in their hero usage for each position."

"It doesn't mean that the four guarantees and one tactic is not good. You know that there is no solution without that tactic?" Zhang Liang said: "This World Championship is definitely different from the previous one that only relied on the individual performance of the players and simple routines to win the game. I have always emphasized with you."

"So tactics are becoming more and more important. What are tactics? It is our inherent problem-solving steps and formulas. During the game, we only need to put the heroes inside. How to do each step, how to snowball, how to do vision, this is Base."

"That's okay, we've all practiced," Gao Dewei said with a smile.

He originally wanted to ease the atmosphere, but there was still silence in the room, the expression on Firefox's face was dark and unclear, and the eyes of the others were also focused on Zhang Liang.

Gao Dewei quickly shut up, he is just farming now, how dare he continue talking.

Zhang Liang regained his composure and continued to speak.

"It can be seen that Samsung White has made great progress compared with the group stage in these aspects. Especially their wild assistant double tour system is definitely mature."

After a pause, Zhang Liang opened the next picture, which was the outfit of the Samsung White team.

"It can be seen that the jungler and support of the Samsung White team must use five-speed shoes at the beginning of the quarterfinals, and they will even use five-speed shoes after the first must-have equipment. The jungler It is the first time to upgrade the jungle knife, and assist in the completion of the eye stone."

"In my opinion, the essence of this version is that you must have the right to control the line. In the three games between Samsung Bai and Royal Family, although the heroes are not strong, they all got the line right..." Zhang Let's go on, let's finish what we have to say.

"Now let's make a training plan." Zhang Liang gulped down the bottle and said, "Everyone, get ready. We will have a clear idea of ​​how we will play in the semi-finals of the semi-finals today."

Everyone also nodded one after another, and Da Qi became more serious.

"Xiao Liang, are you sure you want to send this analysis result?" Before going to bed, Zhang Liang sent the written analysis summary to Xiao Cang, wanting to make another World Championship video, and heard Xiao Cang's question.

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Cang was lying on the bed, waiting for Xiaolou to wash up.

"It's okay. Although this is very important, it has been deleted, so it doesn't matter. Besides, if it can help omg and the others, I still hope to help a little, at least give them a direction."

Zhang Liang also expressed his thoughts.

After losing to the royal family in the quarterfinals of the last omg, he had doubts about his own players.Of course, this is also related to the environment of the entire lpl at that time.

Then in 2015, omg introduced puppies, which led to the complete disintegration of omg, and the end of a generation of dark sky group.

Zhang Liang didn't know if he could change the ending, since he wasn't edg after all.

Thinking of this, Zhang Liang also had to lament Boss Zhu's sincerity. As a fan of Mingkai, Boss Zhu created EDG specially, and he didn't know how to dictate to the team.

Not every team owner is like this.

"I don't understand what you are going to do, Xiaoliang, but I support you." Xiao Cang also expressed his attitude, "Then I will quickly arrange for someone to make a video, and try to release the video before tomorrow night."

After clarifying the training plan, edg began to increase the training intensity.

Now that there are no teams from other countries, Zhang Liang does not dare to play a training match with the Samsung White team.It's not that I'm afraid of not winning, but I'm worried about the learning ability of the coaching staff behind the Samsung White team.

If we really want to talk about the strength of the players, Zhang Liang also looked at everyone's ability ratings. The five members of the Samsung White team are higher than the few members of EDG!
Top laner, all-around top laner, physics, mage, assassin and tank, the hero pool is terribly deep.And the awareness is outstanding, whether it is teamfighting, development or gank, it has achieved the ultimate.

Jungle dandy, one of the three wild kings in South Korea, has a unique personal understanding of the game.He is also a Hero Sea player, with a slightly weaker ability score.

The mid laner pawn has not yet grown to his peak, and it may be that other teammates are too dazzling to cover his light.With the highest talent score, he is a player who can be used as Dinghaishenzhen.

Bottom lane imp is very, very aggressive in lane. Even in unfavorable situations, he will be impulsive and play hard.

Auxiliary mata, at the peak period, excellent overall control, team command and soul, the only auxiliary FMVP player.

Under the command of Mata, these five people, supported by the excellent work of the coaching staff behind them, are definitely the biggest opponents of EDG in this World Championship.

It will also be the final opponent!
Zhang Liang never thought about asking OMG to stop the Samsung White team, this is unrealistic.Because omg's weaknesses are too obvious, and the Samsung White team has very few weaknesses.

In the semi-finals, the competition is who can catch the opponent's weakness and deal a fatal blow.

edg can only train with omg and the royal family, but the effect is very poor - edg's training match win rate is as high as [-]%, so it is meaningless to continue playing like this.

"Isn't your level too outrageous?" Chris, the coach of the royal family, didn't realize that he had to learn, "Samsung Bai is definitely not your opponent if you are so fierce."

Zhang Liang could only laugh dryly, he hinted a lot by insinuating before, but Chris didn't understand what he meant at all.It may also be because he has been eliminated, so he doesn't care.

Omg is actually playing training games seriously, but the progress is relatively slow.Their coach TT is not a qualified coach at all, and BP has to test the players themselves to do it.

Time came to October NO.11 in a blink of an eye.

Seoul Olympic Park Gymnastics Stadium.

Two hostesses stand in the middle of the stage, amplifying their voices and dragging them out to an extremely long stretch.

"Next, let's welcome... EDward Gaming!", the host waved his arm, and the lights hit the edg people on the right side of the stage.

"Top laner koro1, jungler Clearlove, mid laner godv, bottom laner namei and support FZZF!"

It has to be said that the Korean host has a good atmosphere, and he should have learned from European and American football commentators.

When Ming Kai's name was read, the audience burst into cheers.

In today's game, edg played against the Samsung Blue team, and it was even at the home court of Seoul, the capital of South Korea. The Samsung Blue team took the lead.

There are five people on EDG, and only Ming Kai is a bit popular.

After introducing the Samsung Blue team on the other side, the players returned to their seats and began to adjust the equipment. Zhang Liang also came to the player's seat on stage.
