Fierce shooter

April 8, evening, 19 o'clock.

The venue was packed with people.

Two teams with 18 consecutive wins in the regular season collided with each other. This gimmick alone was enough to attract the attention of most players.

In the commentary box, Wawa and Miller were already ready. When the director's camera cut over, their signature opening remarks also sounded in the venue.

"Welcome to the final battle of the 2018 League of Legends Professional League LPL Spring Split. Hello everyone, I am Wawa."

"Hello everyone, I'm Miller."

“The duel between JD.com and TOP just ended at JD.com’s home court in the capital. JD.com steadily defeated TOP 2-0 and won their tenth victory in the spring split. At the same time, JD.com ranked fourth in Group B and successfully Made it to the playoffs.”

Miller looked at the card in his hand and said with a smile: "Actually, even if we don't play this game, the current playoff situation of both sides is very clear. The top four teams in Group A are the first-place EDG."

"Snake is second, BLG is third, and WE is fourth."

"The top four in Group B are IG in first place, RW in second place, RNG in third place, and JD.com in fourth place."

"No matter what the result of this game is, it won't change the points situation in the playoffs much, but this game...if I predict well, it should be the one that attracts the most attention."

There was a hint of emotion in Miller's tone.

This year, EDG was able to achieve such a luxurious record despite a major overhaul. To evaluate it in a joking way, the civil war attributes of this team are really terrifying.

Fans of the IG team can clearly see that after they won a global finals championship, the entire team seemed to have transformed.

Including Li Luo, who often has contact and interacts with the IG players, he knows clearly that the current daily training situation of IG has not returned to the old way because of his departure after forming a habit.

The players are very conscious.

Normally, with the personalities of IG, it is easy for them to start to expand after winning the world championship.

Especially King Ning.

But don’t forget, every player on IG has his or her own pride.

If their performance plummets as soon as Li Luo leaves, what will the outside world think?

So everyone is on the same page.

They want to tell everyone, including themselves, that even if Li Luo is no longer in the team, they will not let IG fall back to its original state.

"By the way, what do you think of today's game?"

The doll looked at Miller.

"This is a bit difficult for me. I can only roughly guess the BP situation today. I just got a reminder from the director that the first EDG of BO3 will be on the blue side. In fact, the BP of this version of the blue side is compared to The red square is easier to do.”

Miller pondered for two seconds and said: "The competition server has just been updated to version 8.6. There are actually quite a lot of changes in version 8.6, which is also very critical for the selection of heroes in this version."

Wawa nodded with deep understanding: "Indeed, in this version, as long as there is a chance to grab it, you can grab Kai'Sa without thinking."

Although he can't understand the game.

But the doll can still do basic epidermal work.

The two biggest changes in version 8.6 are the enhancement of Kai’Sa and the changes to the Sheep Knife.

After Li Luo became the first player in the Korean server more than a month ago, Kai'Sa's popularity skyrocketed.

But with the frighteningly high selection rate, Kai'Sa's winning rate in ranks above the platinum tier in the Korean server is only 46.8%.

The final analysis is that Kai'Sa is too difficult to get past the early stage.

The early functional ads of this version are very strong.

For Kai'Sa players who are not very proficient, as long as the opponent chooses a stronger functional hero, the line will be difficult to play.

If her teammates collapse even slightly, Kai'Sa will not even be able to evolve her skills, and the game will end immediately.

This phenomenon tells Riot designers that not everyone is Li Luo.

Riot cannot be fooled around by Li Luo. They must make changes where they should serve the majority of players.

So Kai'Sa got stronger.

Passive Plasma "For every 100 spell power, the damage proportion of the target's missing health increases."

Attack range increased by 25 yards.

Although the Q skill increases the mana cost, both the range and the magic power gain are increased. The casting distance of the skill is also increased by 25 yards, from 575 to 600.

The casting time of E skill is reduced, and the extra movement speed provided when casting is increased.

The most noteworthy thing is that when Kai'Sa's ultimate move was released in the first version, it would only generate a shield after it landed.

But now, Kai'Sa's ultimate move will complete the generation of the shield the moment it is released, and the duration of the shield will still be increased by three seconds after the sprint ends.

The increased damage is in AP value, which is not a big improvement to the current version of Kai'Sa's outfit ideas.

The real huge improvement is the attack range and the generation time of the ultimate shield.

The improvement of the hero's attributes is only one aspect.

Sometimes, changes to equipment can make a hero take off instantly.

This version of the Sheep Knife is like that.

The high synthesis cost of 3,600 has been converted into 3,000 yuan. This alone is enough to give Kai'Sa, Varus, Big Mouth and other heroes who can make sheep knives a huge improvement.

For Li Luo, what he really cares about in this version is the Yang Dao.

Especially the new "normal attack additional physical damage" and the new "percentage of additional attack power obtained when the number of layers is superimposed."

Recently, the appearance rate of heroes such as Big Mouth and Varus in the Korean server has increased sharply.

But Li Luo knew clearly that a hero who was completely unrelated to the previous Yang Dao could appear in this version and make a Yang Dao.

And this is also a major trump card that the EDG team is preparing for in the playoffs.

The two commentators were chatting animatedly in the commentary box.

In the backstage lounge, the players from both sides began to chat and spank.

When the director switched the camera to the background, he happened to see Li Luo communicating with The shy and Ning Wang, both of whom were laughing happily.

Fans from both sides, who were arguing online to the point of blushing, fell silent when they saw this scene.

Especially when the grumpy old man from Kangba has posted a taunting post.

"I was really impressed by this group of serious players. The relationship between the players was so good, but they ended up getting into a fight."

"I feel like the highlight of today is mainly in the bottom lane. The duel between the old and new ADs and the collision between the new and old Luo Fei. Gee, it's exciting just thinking about it."

"The matchup in the middle is the best. Both of them are fierce. Although the junior has been beaten by Rookie in the past, the growth of the junior is quite obvious during this time."

"As a jungler, I hope to see the collision between champion jungler Ning Wang and rookie young player Xiao Tian. It will be very exciting for these two to fight."

"By the way, why didn't we discuss going on the road?"

"What's so exciting about being alone on the road? The strongest spear meets the strongest shield. To be honest, I can only say one thing. There is absolutely no chance that EDG will collapse on the road. I bet 50 cents!"

"I'll bet a piece!"

"IG fans said that although the top laner is The shy, I feel that the probability of Jin Gong not being able to withstand the pressure and collapse is smaller than deft defeating Brother Luo."

…

Backstage lounge.

The footage provided by the director was just a wave of interactive activities between the coaches of both sides after they arranged their tactics and before taking the stage.

Li Luo was quite relieved to see The Shy intact.

At this time before the rebirth, The shy's hand was broken, so that IG in the playoffs had no choice but to abandon their original play style and let duke play all the time.

It's not that Duke is much weaker than The Shy, the main reason is that the two have different styles, and the rhythm of the team will be different after playing.

This is undoubtedly quite fatal for the IG team that has been working together throughout the regular season.

"Brother Luo, be gentle. If you strike too hard, I will let Brother Lan take the lead."

Jackeylove said jokingly.

Bao Lan remained silent.

"Don't ban Kasha, I'll be gentle."

Li Luo smiled and waved to Jackeylove.

Whether it's in the Korean server or training matches, all the major LPL teams know how terrifying Li Luoka'sa is.

There was no way for Li Luo to hide.

The version is very popular, so there is no need to hide it.

Instead of hiding it, it's better to show it and put pressure on the opponent's BP.

In this way, it will be very difficult for IG to do the BP in the first three hands.

The bp between the two sides soon kicked off.

"The BP has started here! The EDG team on the blue side, and the IG team on the red side! EDG's first three ban positions are given to Luo, Jayce, and Kalista respectively. There are still many strong adcs outside the court. , banning Kalista seems to be an attempt to prevent the IG team’s dual AD system from last season.”

Miller quickly analyzed: "The first two bans on the IG team were Destiny Master and Blind Sin. In the last hand, after seeing EDG knocking out Kalista, they chose to actively ban Kai'Sa. "

"This choice is still very wise."

Wawa took over the conversation: "The idea of ​​IG should be this. If you don't ban Kalista, then we can get two on the first and second floors. After Kalista and Ezreal get both, there will be no confrontation outside the court." A better adc."

"Although this version of the fast-paced Policewoman can return to the competition stage, the intensity in the mid-term is still a little weaker."

Miller saw that his old partner started to analyze the situation. He glanced at the doll in surprise and said: "IG's ban people are still very thieves. This version of the blind monk has been greatly strengthened, so they chose to ban Dropped Xiaotian’s powerful rhythm hero, but released the junior Zoe.”

"Zoe has been greatly reduced in the last version, but the strength of this hero in the mid-term is still terrible. It depends on how EDG chooses. If they don't choose Zoe, then IG can grab it...lock it!"

Miller's analysis came to an abrupt end, and EDG instantly selected Zoe on the first floor.

As for the IG team, the selection of heroes on the first and second floors was extremely fast. The version T1 adc Ezreal was directly selected, followed closely by Camille.

Li Luo glanced at IG's lineup, pondered for two seconds and then said: "There may be a swing in Camille, otherwise they wouldn't be able to release Mantis."

"There are many heroes I can take. There is no need to take Mantis first. Let's choose the duo lane first."

Xiaotian scratched his head and said.

"Then talk big, Bronn."

Abu, who was standing behind, said firmly.

Big Mouth paired with Braum is a very popular system in the current version.

And the most important thing is that Braum has a bond with the current version of the popular hero Ornn.

If IG wants to continue to add team-starting heroes, then Ornn is undoubtedly the best choice.

But now that EDG has chosen Braum, IG has no choice but to choose Ornn.

Not only did they have no choice, they also had to take on Ornn's ban position in the second round of BP to avoid being taken by EDG.

This is the game and charm between bp.

After much hesitation, the IG team chose to play in the middle first.

The rhythm of the mid laner must be up, so Rookie very decisively chose to take his Syndra first.

There is no pressure on Syndra to play against Zoe.

In terms of the confrontation between the heroes in the middle, Syndra completely won.

The two sides entered the second round of banning.

EDG couldn't help but first clicked off the auxiliary Karma who was most compatible with Ezreal.

Immediately after considering Li Luo, IG once used Galio's assist routine. Although IG has already released the mid laner, the assist Galio can also enter the field with Camille, so EDG's second ban in the second round The choice was given to Galio.

The IG team's two bans in the second round were given to Ornn and Captain respectively. At the same time, IG finalized Niutou on the fourth floor.

"Are you pairing the Bullhead with Ezreal... Then the laning in the bottom lane feels a bit weak."

Miller said thoughtfully: "However, IG has only one requirement for the bottom lane this season, and that is to be stable in the early stage and wait for team battles before dealing damage. Ezreal paired with Niutou is certainly weak in the laning stage. A little bit, but it still plays a big role in the middle and late stages.”

"The next step is to see the EDG team's hero selection on the fourth and fifth floors. Mantis is finalized on the fourth floor... There is no problem. With Lee Sin being banned, Mantis is undoubtedly the best jungler hero who can lead the rhythm in the early stages of this version. one of."

"And on the fifth floor... EDG finally chose Shen! In this case, EDG's purpose is very clear. As usual, they will most likely play around the lower half, leaving the top lane alone."

"But Shen, a hero, is still very strong in supporting teammates after reaching level 6. EDG's lineup is very integrated."

"But on IG's side...huh? Camille is playing jungle?!"

As Miller's tone suddenly increased, the audience watched helplessly as the fifth floor of the IG team locked up an unparalleled swordswoman, Fiona!

"Sword Girl! Locked!"

There were cheers everywhere.

Most of the top laners in this version are tanks and half-tank heroes.

Only pure warriors like Camille will appear.

But The shy chose to take a top lane hero like Jian Ji who has a strong desire to attack.

And from the perspective of IG's tactics, it is obvious that there is a certain design in letting Ueno swing and choose Sword Girl as the Kang special position on the fifth floor.

At this time, EDG is on the battle table.

"He must have stolen money from Liu Jianji."

Jin Gong said helplessly.

The money-stealing Sword Girl is quite popular in the current version.

Although the damage in the later period is a bit lower.

But as long as the hero Sword Girl can quickly form a two-piece set, the damage she lacks in talent is not that important.

It's easy for Sword Girl to steal money and defeat all melee heroes.

Although this Jin Gong was confident that it would not be exploded, he could not stop Sword Girl from stealing money.

"It's not a big problem. If we lose the game because of Sword Lady's problem, then we can just scold you. Even if I get blasted by Prince Ning, I don't have to take the blame."

Xiaotian started the classic yin and yang weirdness again.

"Want a hug from daddy again?"

Jin Gong sneered.

This is also on the chair.

Otherwise, he will let Xiaotian understand who is the real father.

In front of the commentary table.

Miller summarized the lineups of both sides: "The lineups of both sides have been finalized! The blue side EDG team, the top laner Shen, the jungler Mantis, the mid laner Zoe, and the bottom lane duo are Big Mouth and Braum respectively! "

"The red side IG team, the top laner is Sword Girl, the jungler Camille, the mid laner Syndra, and the bottom lane duo is Ezreal paired with Niutou!"

"The players on both sides are ready, let's enter the final BO3 first showdown together!"
