League of Legends Nirvana Journey

Chapter 277 Peak SKT!

Although the veterans on TL have done the best they can, and even pushed SKT to a desperate situation, even the LPL viewers who have the most confidence in SKT have begun to doubt whether SKT can do it. However, most professional players are still not optimistic that TL can win this BO5!

Ye Qing is also one of them. He really doesn't look down on TL's strength. I believe that after watching the first two games, no one will underestimate this veteran alliance with big brothers as the core. The condition must be excellent!!

But why is it that Ye Qing is still not optimistic about TL? Even though TL has already won two rounds and has three match points in hand, Ye Qing still thinks that SKT has a very high possibility of winning this BO5?
This will involve the powerful adjustment ability of their opponent SKT team during the game!

In terms of SKT's ability to adjust, it is really top-notch. This can be seen from their playoff match with IG. In the second round of the match between the two teams, they faced IG's unsolvable dragon grab There is still nothing to do with the top team fighting strength.

At that time, SKT basically could only watch helplessly as the advantages that they managed to achieve in the early stage were gradually recovered by IG's unsolvable personal strength in the middle and late stages. This feeling was really bad, and many teams have experienced it. This kind of thing, but there is no way to solve it.

But in the playoffs, SKT found certain countermeasures.

Although the response could not be regarded as a complete victory, and IG still played back a lot in the middle and late stages, but found a countermeasure in such a short period of time, and achieved a certain effect, and finally won. This is enough to show that SKT's ability to adjust is strong!

This actually comes down to one question, that is, what is the team's ability to adjust during the game?
Normally, the stronger a team's ability to adjust, the deeper the team's background!It is the biggest guarantee for the top teams not to be upset!

Let me give you a vivid example. When the LPL team met the Korean team, I felt that the LPL team could still fight the LCK team at the beginning of the game, and even win a round or two. But the more you fight to the back, the harder it is to fight. When it gets to the last round, the LPL teams basically have no ability to resist!

The strength of the LCK team in the last game is really obvious to all LPL fans!If the players want to win this last game, if they don’t use their skills, or if they don’t prepare a big move tactically, there is really no way to win!
In terms of individual strength alone, our LPL team and the LCK team were actually not much different back then. Why did it feel like there was such a big gap between the two divisions at that time?
That's because our ability to adjust during the game is far inferior to that of the LCK!

They can always adjust their tactical thinking in time during the game, and even directly change the tactical system to better deal with our team. However, we lack a tactical system and basically only have one tactical system to use. In the end, we The result is definitely not difficult to predict!

Needless to say, SKT's background, as long as their coach and Faker are still there, then their background is placed among so many teams in the world, and they are also quite top-notch.

Their ability to adjust is something that many teams cannot match, and Ye Qing feels that they may have specially majored in their ability to adjust this aspect during the game this season.

Ever since, one of the biggest characteristics of SKT this season is that they are particularly good at adjusting the most suitable tactics to face various opponents. They can reflect this characteristic in the videos of the LCK playoffs, that is SKT can always find the opponent's flaws, and then beat the opponent's flaws, and finally win.

And the current SKT team is particularly good at attacking the opponent's weaknesses. In this year's Intercontinental Championship, didn't SKT take advantage of RNG's shortcomings and defeat RNG?Also, when we played against IG for the first time, SKT also mastered Leyan's attack very well.

And the longer the BO5 is played and the more games there are, the more this defect will be exposed by SKT, and the probability of them winning will be higher.

To sum it up briefly, the current SKT team is very good at taking advantage of the opponent's weaknesses, and is also very good at discovering the opponent's weaknesses. Generally, the opponent's lineup will be tested for flaws during the game!
Regarding this, Ye Qing can only say that Faker is almost burning his last potential this season!
Why is it said that Faker is burning himself, not SKT's coaching staff and analysts?

Because this level of adjustment ability cannot be arranged by the coach in advance. Even if the coach who is outside the game finds out many details during the game, it is absolutely impossible to fully understand them during the rest period. Point it out, how long is it from the end of the game to the start of the next game?Enough for the coach to finish so many noteworthy details?
That is absolutely not enough!The coach will most likely talk about the general idea of ​​the next game, at most he will talk about one or two mistakes that the players may make, or one or two key timing points. He has absolutely no way to take care of the details!

So there can only be one explanation for this. These adjustments were designed by Faker while playing the game.

This is also the case with the match against TL. In the first match, Kai’Sa, the big brother, really can be said to be wanton in the formation of SKT, and the formation of Ueno in TL is also impregnable. Once the ID is covered, it is definitely the peak RNG of S8!

If you don't consider the team name SKT, I really feel that SKT can't win no matter how they play!

But in the second game, Ye Qing could clearly feel that the big brother's performance was limited, and TL's mid-upfield defense was not as solid as in the last game!
SKT's advantage in the early and mid-game far exceeds their advantage in the first game. In the later team battles, their restrictions on the big brothers are far more effective than their restrictions on the big brothers in the first game!
This led to SKT's advantage in almost the entire second game!

Although later in the penultimate wave of team battles between the two sides, the senior brother accurately found the opportunity to let his small cannons jump up, and in that wave he got a lot of kills and bounties, directly Bo gained weight, and later performed at an explosive level!

In the following two waves of team battles, Faker was unable to stop a wave of fat small guns. One wave of team battles allowed TL to balance the situation, and the next wave of team battles allowed TL to get the dragon, and then was defeated by TL. Directly ended the game.

Although SKT did lose in the second game, their performance was indeed much better than in the first game. The overall performance of SKT really improved significantly. In SKT's case, Faced with Bian's terrifying adjustment ability, can TL win with this lineup in the next three games?

The prediction given by Ye Qing is impossible, and TL has no second lineup to use. Their current lineup is already in ruins, with no retreat option and no last resort.

Just like the previous LPL team faced the same dilemma as the LCK team, one tactical system was figured out, and after being targeted, there was no second tactical system to use, and in the end they were forced to face failure!
The current TL is indeed prosperous. All the spectators and fans are waiting for TL to make good use of these three match points to create miracles. But when Faker takes out countermeasures before the start of the next game, then TL's lineup will be There is no way to win again! All TL fans and LPL viewers can expect is disappointment!
According to Ye Qing's prediction, if no miracle happens on TL's side, then SKT will definitely win.

Moreover, with the prolongation of the game time, the status of veterans like the big brother on TL's side will definitely gradually decline, and the miracle that TL needs to look forward to, the probability of it happening will continue to decrease!
Although the big brother is indeed burning himself, he has improved his state unprecedentedly, made this originally unequal game equal, and even tilted the balance of victory to TL's side, this kind of behavior is indeed worthy of respect, But isn't Faker burning himself?
S7 and the Faker before S7 must be younger than the current him. Operations, reactions... These things are better than the current Faker. He can stand up directly, use operations to crush everything, to reverse the situation and win. !

This year, during the MSI period and before, he also thought the same way. He also wanted to use his own personal operations to reverse everything and lead the team to victory, as he did when he was young. After all, he won the three championships like this! ,

For this reason, he even desperately devoted all his time to training to forcefully bring his condition back!

He did it. During that period of time, he almost dreamed of going back to S5 and S6. He was at the peak level in terms of operation and awareness, so he was able to beat G2, the strongest European team in recent years. In front of the IG, he didn't even have the ability to resist.

And after being easily sent away by the super peak IG, he understood one thing:

Even if I managed to make the current SKT status greatly improved, to the point where it can even be compared to the SKT team in S6, it doesn't mean that I can help myself win the fourth championship of my career!

Because the times are advancing, top professional players are constantly emerging, and tactical systems and strategic designs continue to be developed and developed, so the average strength of the current teams is definitely far higher than the average of the teams in the previous period. Strong!

In the previous S6, SKT was able to dominate in that state, but now in S9, even if SKT can maintain or even slightly surpass the state of SKT in S6, there is no way to maintain its original position in S6!
Not to mention maintaining the dominance of the original SKT team, it can't even make it into the top three in the team strength rankings!

And in this context, if SKT is still staring at the self in S5 and S6, missing the previous peak, standing still, and still unable to break through itself, then F will never be able to touch the championship again!

Faker, who understands this truth, also knows how he should go. If he just continues to strengthen his training and try to make his operation as close to the peak as possible, then even if he touches the previous peak, there is no way to break through, because After all, the current self is old, and it is impossible to compete with the young self.

So he directly changed his thinking and put all his attention on the tactical command. The ranking training that usually takes up the most time has also become a detailed training for each team, each player, and various tactical systems. Analysis!

At this time, he no longer focused on his own operations, but instead concentrated all his energy on commanding, so that his consciousness and experience could be maximized.

Ever since, in the second half of the season, SKT lost the suffocating dominance they had in the first half of the season, but they won more games than they did in the first half of the season, and they also had more in the playoffs. A more terrifying winning rate.

Anyone who has carefully studied this SKT can almost come to a conclusion. If it is a BO1, this SKT may lose to any team, but if it is a BO5, this SKT may be better than any previous SKT. Even stronger!
This is Faker burning himself, bringing a super gift package to this chaotic World Championship due to the rampant strong teams, a SKT that is at the top of BO5!

If you don't count the physical strength of the players, SKT can even be invincible in a BO10!
