Fierce shooter

KZ's decision to turn off the wheel caused a burst of sighs from the scene.

The hero Wheel Mom has almost never been in the ban position except during his strongest period in the S5 season.

Now it is the S8 season, and the adc position is flourishing. Only Ou Cheng can use heroes like Wheel Mom occasionally.

The moving castle presented by EDG in the group stage made this hero a tactical system for EDG.

Originally, KZ thought that pressing down Ryze would solve everything.

But the last game, "Moving Castle 2.0", which was upgraded with the addition of bears and scorpions, made KZ understand that they had to solve the problem at the root.

If you want to crack the moving castle system, it is impossible not to start with double mothers.

So they chose to kill the source of all evil, the Wheel Mother.

The reason why Karma was not pressed was because KZ also wanted to limit EDG's group starting points.

Just like the situation in the previous game, if EDG grabs Karma first, they can start with a strong hero in the upper jungle and win two key core points in the first two choices.

As long as they keep the counter position, no matter how EDG swings, they will still get the counter position.

It doesn't matter if EDG chooses to give meiko Karma, then EDG will lack points to start a group.

This is the tactical idea that KZ's coach Sin has always insisted on and recognized when facing EDG.

Bans on both sides were carried out one after another.

The first three ban positions of EDG on the blue side were given to Jayce, Luo, and Vampire respectively.

With the last hand to press down the vampire, EDG's intention was already very clear.

KZ's first two hands have already eliminated Ryze and Wheel Mom, and they still have the last ban position left in the first round.

EDG pressed the vampire, undoubtedly to let KZ make a choice.

One of the two big Cs in the unit is a vampire and the other is a captain.

The vampire can restrain the captain a little during the laning phase.

Now that the captain's old enemy has been knocked out by EDG, should KZ choose to ban the captain?

On the KZ battle table.

sin frowned.

Although Jin Gong had never used a captain when he faced them, but not having used it does not mean that they don't know how to play. Their KZ had behaved very wildly and confidently in front of the media before, but in fact they didn't do much research on EDG. few.

Jin Gong's best hero is the captain, bar none.

They knew this information.

In this case, should we let the captain make a choice for KZ?

If the captain is not released...Kasha will be released.

With the current version of Kai’Sa’s strength…

"It's okay. Let them use the captain. I have no problem."

Khan thought for a while and said: "He is very familiar with the captain, and I am also very familiar with it. It will be better to target more in the front. Our jungler should not use brush heroes this time. It is useless. Teams like EDG cannot develop at all. Even if it develops, it will be difficult to perform in team battles."

"Um."

Little Peanut responded expressionlessly.

"Of course, I'm not saying that our jungle brush heroes are not good at playing well..."

Little Peanut's face darkened.

He felt that if Khan didn't say this more superfluously, he would feel better.

After a simple exchange, KZ made a decision.

Press Kai'Sa.

Free the captain.

In this case, EDG will naturally not be polite.

Jin Gong on the first floor chooses the captain instantly!

In China, countless EDG fans felt inexplicably relieved when they saw Jin Gong's ID and the hero Captain appearing in the same column.

The captain is grown up.

Sin looked at EDG's choices on the first floor and was about to direct the BP when the auxiliary player Gorilla sitting on the far side suddenly said with some hesitation: "By the way...Karma and Ezreal have been released."

Sin was also startled when he heard this.

They had just put too much energy into banning people at the end.

Now EZ and Karma were released at the same time, and EDG did not choose one of them to remove these two heroes.

This is fantastic news for them!

You must know that the combination of EZ and Karma takes into account mobility, troop clearing ability and protection ability.

In the current version, regardless of the individual AD or auxiliary heroes, this is the most ideal two-man lane combination, no one!

EDG suddenly released these two heroes at the same time. Did they take the wrong medicine?

"Take it, take it all!"

Sin said firmly.

Ezreal and Karma quickly appeared on the first and second floors of KZ, and were also locked down in seconds.

Sin was relieved after getting this pair of bottom lane combinations.

Although Ezreal turned into a shit in the last game of Pray, as a coach and a former professional player, he also understood that Ezreal was unlikely to perform well in that situation.

So you can't blame pray.

Beating him to death with a stick is not his style of managing his players. Since Pray still has the confidence to prove himself again, Sin will naturally choose to give him a chance.

After winning this combination, Sin will undoubtedly feel more at ease with the bottom lane.

When it was the EDG team's turn to make a selection, EDG first locked the last excellent Scorpion on the second floor, and then locked Kalista on the third floor!

"Calista... Then the EDG team is going to have a head-to-head battle with EZ Karma. The factory director's last Scorpion felt very good, so I chose to continue to use it in this set. The EDG team's first three hands The overall lineup looks very good, with late-stage cores, team initiators, and support points in the early and mid-term, and it’s easier for the younger players in the middle to choose heroes that can match the lineup.”

While Miller was talking, the third floor of the KZ team had also been finalized.

Desert Emperor, Azir.

BDD didn't choose the rock bird when there was a rock bird outside.

When facing EDG before, he had chosen a rock bird, but unfortunately the effect was not good.

Although he lost the last game, BDD still believes that as long as he can seize the line rights in the middle and tie his junior in the middle, he can curb the performance and rhythm of EDG's mid laner to a certain extent.

They need a late-game core for this one, and Tsar is one of BDD’s best heroes, so it’s perfect to choose him.

The two sides quickly entered the second round of banning.

The EDG team quickly eliminated the unparalleled swordswoman who was mainly single-banded and could pose a certain deterrent to the captain during the laning period.

In addition, EDG also eliminated a hero, Olaf, who had a certain restraint on Scorpion in the jungle.

Little Peanut can play Olaf, but he doesn't really like to play at this MSI.

According to Mingkai's understanding of Little Peanut and the lessons learned from the previous game, Little Peanut may take out his own Olaf to deal with it here.

It is better to strike first and press it directly, which can solve a lot of troubles.

Anyway, EDG doesn't have many other heroes to ban.

This is the courage given to them by the integrity of the EDG team.

The scene in the KZ team's battle table was completely different from that of the EDG team.

EDG doesn't have many heroes to ban.

And KZ has too many heroes to ban, and it's impossible to ban them.

So they can only pick the most difficult heroes to target.

The first thing KZ pressed was the junior's Enchantress.

In the second round of EDG's group stage, the junior teammate brought out Trickster Enchantress twice.

Although the opponents they faced were not very strong, the junior Enchantress was able to slaughter the opponent in every game, and even completed three solo kills.

Still quite bluffing.

What the Tsar is more afraid of are the more flexible mage assassins like Enchantress. If the junior chooses Enchantress, BDD has no confidence that he can tie the junior in the middle.

In addition, KZ's second ban position in the second round is very intriguing.

They pressed down the bear.

The scene was filled with sadness again.

In the commentary box, pdd suppressed a smile and said: "I know what KZ and the others are afraid of. They are worried that although Xiong Xiong does not have the movement speed bonus given by the two mothers, with Kalista here, they can throw him away more directly. When carrying people in the opposite crowd, although the distance is a bit shorter, the efficiency is exaggerated. When paired with Scorpion, EDG can still shoot whoever they want."

"That's right. In fact, I feel that KZ should want to target more supports, but they really don't have any good methods. There are only so many ban positions, and there are many heroes who can cooperate with Kalista. , heroes such as Braum, Tauren, and Thresh can form a good partner combination with Kalista."

When Wawa opened his mouth to speak, the hero in the jungle position on the fourth floor of the KZ team had also locked down.

Wine barrel.

"Little Peanut has a rhythm-type hero, but it's a pity that it's not the Blind Sin. To be honest, I still want to see Little Peanut take out the Blind Sin again."

Miller seemed to be recalling some past events: "The biggest impression I have on Peanut's blind monk is not how dazzling he is or how good his operations are, but that his Q skill Tianyin Wave is very precise. How good is the blind monk?" Well, in my opinion, the accuracy of skill release is the most important. Such extremely extreme hard-core operations may not be possible even once in several games."

"Yes, Little Peanut chose the barrel. Let's take a look at the fourth and fifth floors of the EDG team... Oh? Meiko's Thresh is directly locked! In the end, there is only one mid-range hero left... The little boy chose Rock bird, use rock bird to fight the Tsar!”

On the KZ battle table.

After seeing his junior choose the rock bird, BDD rubbed the top of his nose with the fingers of both hands.

He has encountered this kind of bp before.

This means that if his middle is not handled properly, it is very likely to be blown through.

The Czar is actually not that easy to fight against the Rock Bird, especially the Rock Bird that knows how to play.

A rock bird that knows how to play will make its position very stuck when it comes to the Czar in the lane. The Czar will always stay in the range where he can be poked by the sand soldiers, but the Czar can also be hit by his W.

In this range, the Tsar can certainly use sand soldiers to consume, but he also has to bear the risk of being attacked by Yanqueyan and flying back to consume a large set.

If he did not want to be consumed, the Tsar could only choose to retreat proactively, but in that case, he would play into Yanque's hands.

But BDD had no other choice. He had foreseen this situation.

The restrictions on the ban position make it impossible for them to ban many heroes, such as EDG's favorite top and jungle combination before, Troll paired with Ornn.

They will even ban you the first time.

But there are really no more ban positions to target this one.

The initiative of bp is completely in the hands of the EDG team. Their KZ can only rack their brains to find a usable tactical system in a limited space. During the selection process, they have to worry about whether they will fall into EDG's trap, or whether they will fall into EDG's trap. He said he was demolished by EDG for taking advantage of the ban.

The EDG team is like a fisherman who owns a huge fishing ground.

They pick and choose whatever fish they like in their own fish pond.

The abundant hero pool and tactical system make it impossible for any player who faces them to target them. This is EDG.

The KZ team finally settled on Jax on the fifth floor.

This can be considered one of Khan's most confident heroes.

Jax is facing up to the captain. As long as he controls the details of the matchup well, he still has a good chance of gaining a matchup advantage. Especially when facing the barrels released by the captain, Jax can use E to jump face and control. The timing of the E skill's stun is good, and the barrel A can be dropped at the same time as a set of consumption.

And once the captain is kissed in the face by Jax, he can still pull him with the fire knife. Without the fire knife, he is simply chased and hammered.

"Jax! It's locked. It seems that KZ has really lost everything. Even Jax has sent it out."

pdd smacked his lips: "In that case, the lineups of both sides have been completely finalized."

"Yes."

Miller nodded slightly: "For the blue EDG team, the top laner is Captain, the jungler is Scorpion, the mid laner is Rockbird, and the bottom lane duo is Kalista paired with Thresh!"

"The red side KZ team, top laner Jax, jungler Barrel, mid laner Tsar, double Lue Ezreal paired with Karma!"

"EDG plays a lineup that supports roaming in the early stage and holds the team together to control resources in the later stage to push the tower, while the KZ team uses a standard system that focuses on defensive development in the early and mid-term and leads to 41 points in the late stage."

"Judging from the lineups of both sides, this one is relatively close. It just depends on who can handle it better!"

After pdd analyzed it, he said: "The players on both sides are ready. Let's enter the match point game of today's semi-finals. Let's wait and see whether EDG will shave its head 3-0, or KZ will pull back a victory!"

As pdd's voice fell, the sound of cheering sounded loudly on the scene.

EDG battle table.

"Work harder and try to get off work directly."

After Abu left a few words, he took his little notebook and walked down from the battle table with a smile on his face.

Even when shaking hands with KZ's coach, Abramovich felt that his mood was completely different.

In the past, as soon as he entered the World Championship and the BP ended, Abramovich would feel empty inside.

That feeling of not being grounded at all made him very uneasy.

This feeling stems from the overall instability of the team in world events.

Over the past few years, Abu has gradually become accustomed to this feeling.

But now, when leading EDG with such a configuration to enter world-type competitions again, Abramovich found that his mentality seemed to have been sublimated.

They are not a pseudo-strong team.

He is the king of this year's LPL Spring Split.

LPL is now the first division!

Feeling Abu's surging confidence, Sin alone was inferior in terms of momentum.

Sin was still comforting himself in his heart. After all, he was only the one responsible for BP, and the real victory or defeat still rested in the hands of the players on the field.

But after thinking about this aspect, Sin felt even less confident.
