Fierce shooter

EDG's growth throughout the season is obvious to everyone.

Although the Thorn Birds are the most victorious generals in the summer split, there have been many teams in history that made great progress before the finals, but fell short in the last round.

However, with successive victories in the LPL division, fans of the two teams do not have much hostility towards each other.

For an ordinary professional player, if he changes to another team and faces his old club again, the officials may even come up with some gimmicks, such as "proving themselves" or something like that.

But Li Luo...does he need to prove himself?

He has firmly established himself as the number one player in the LPL with two S-level championships and numerous honors he has gained in consecutive years.

As long as Li Luo can win another world championship this year, even faker will be eclipsed in front of Li Luo.

Therefore, most viewers watched the final with an attitude of "appreciation" and "enjoyment".

There were not too many lengthy links. Just a few days later, the LPL division finals officially kicked off.

In a venue that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, the fans of both teams are densely packed, but they are not clearly differentiated. Usually in this kind of event, the fans of the two teams will sit apart, showing a tendency of competing in separate courts.

But now this final is obviously a bit unexpected.

In the commentary box, Guan Zeyuan, Wawa, and Miller, three big guys in the field of commentary, presided over the commentary of this BO5.

"Today's game still has a lot to say."

When Guan Zeyuan spoke, Miller and Wawa immediately pricked up their ears. Wawa let out a high-pitched "Oh~", and Miller followed closely and echoed: "I would like to hear the details."

Guan Zeyuan knew that the two were setting a trap for him, but he was not afraid of the stage. He said bluntly: "There are certain differences in the styles of the two teams. The EDG team's style is relatively fixed, mainly based on The rhythm ability of the midfielder can help open up situations in the bottom lane or top lane."

"When I help the top lane, I can survive in the bottom lane, and when I help the bottom lane, I can survive in the top lane. Jin Gong and Lin Weixiang are also in relatively stable condition. Both of them have good carry ability in the late stage. Because of this, EDG is in a fixed position. This adds a lot of variables to the style.”

Guan Zeyuan's words made many EDG fans at the scene nod secretly.

Needless to say, his analysis was very thorough.

"As for the Thorn Birds... to be honest, their style is too fluid, but I have to admit that the ecology of the Thorn Birds is actually very healthy. If you carefully observe all the Thorn Birds games and carefully review some of them, you will I discovered that the Thorn Birds team has a characteristic that no other team has."

"What characteristics?"

The doll asked subconsciously.

Guan Zeyuan thought for a moment, organized his words, and then said seriously: "The scary thing about the Thorn Birds team, in my opinion, is that they can use their tactical focus to appropriately raise everyone's upper limit."

Miller also fell into deep thought after hearing this, and then said hesitantly: "I probably understand what you mean, you probably don't mean that."

The two people's words gradually increased the number of question marks on the barrage.

"???What are these two people talking about? Are they talking nonsense?"

"The performance of the person who is given a tactical focus will definitely be more outstanding. Needless to say, does this need to be said?"

"Guan Zeyuan analyzed something, people can see it."

"Don't scold me upstairs, I didn't notice."

…

Most people in the barrage are confused about this.

Guan Zeyuan also quickly solved the doubts.

"In fact, many teams hope that they have a changeable play style. After all, in BO5, changeability means that the opponent is likely to be directly confused by your set of tactical small combos. This is why the Thorn Birds team plays in BO3 There is a reason why I will lose in small games, but I have never lost in BO5 games.”

"But other teams have also tried it. Why does it only work for Thorn Birds? This is a question worth pondering."

Guan Zeyuan chuckled: "I have studied for a long time and found that the most essential part of the Thorn Birds' tactical layout is that when they want to focus on one person, they will let the hero chosen by that person and the team be able to support him. We have done our best to cooperate.”

"Even the player's own habits will be taken into account. This is the scariest thing."

Next to him, Miller said hesitantly: "I vaguely understand. What you mean is that when some teams surround a very strong player, they only get him a strong version of the hero, but in other aspects, For example, whether there is output space in team battles, or how to quickly help snowball through small-scale rhythm changes in the game, etc., they are not as good as the Thorn Birds."

"Yes, that's it. When the Thorn Birds surround a person, we can usually see that once the person gets an equipment advantage in the game, even if it's just some small advantages that don't seem big to us, he can actually achieve them. It feels like it’s being crushed.”

"This is what I think is the scariest thing about the Thorn Birds team."

"Today, EDG must withstand this test."

…

As the discussion in the commentary box heated up, the game between the two sides officially began.

Everyone in the Thorn Birds looked relaxed. Although there were not many smiles on their faces, they could not see the slightest worry among them. Under the camera of the director, the five Thorn Birds had been discussing something with each other.

In contrast, the EDG team can clearly see that the players are under pressure.

Lin Weixiang held his chin in his hand, thoughtfully, while Meiko beside him kept talking.

But only meiko spoke in EDG.

The expressions of Jin Gong, Xiaotian and the junior disciple all looked a little solemn.

Abu behind him is no exception.

They all know clearly that their chances of winning this game are only 40% at most!

As expected, they still had an accident.

In the first game, the Thorn Birds team got Ezreal in the bottom lane. With both Kai'Sa and Xayah being banned, Lin Weixiang took out Kalista, intending to focus on attacking the lane.

Obviously, EDG's first idea was to try to see if Lin Weixiang and Meiko could achieve an effect of 1+1 greater than 2.

After all, in the eyes of the audience, although the Thorn Birds' performance has been rising this year, and Liu Qingsong's support is also very eye-catching, considering that the adc player Liu Qingsong partners with is the god of the current LPL division, so when comparing Liu Qingsong and Meiko When comparing, most people still take it for granted that Meiko is stronger.

One side is strong in AD, and the other side is strong in support. According to the ecological environment of the bottom lane, the side with strong support seems to be able to gain a greater advantage.

Therefore, the first thing EDG wants to do is to try to see if their bottom lane can withstand the pressure from the Thorn Birds in the game. If they can, their chances of winning this BO5 will instantly increase by 20%!

After getting the captain from Jin Gong as he wished, Abu felt that his BP should be pretty good.

But the Thorn Birds team finally settled on an extremely unpopular hero for the Counter position.

Exile Blade, Revan.

Everyone knows that Holy Spear can play this hero, and this is not the first time that Holy Spear has used it in the LPL arena.

But this is the LPL Summer Finals against EDG!

Just because this hero was finalized, the cheers at the scene were more than twice as high as before.

Rui Mengmeng can definitely be regarded as a highly entertaining emotional hero!

"Riven... be good, then Jin Gong's captain may have to resist the pressure in the early stage."

In the commentary box, Miller lamented that the Thorn Birds are really brave.

There is no pure late-game hero in this Thorn Bird.

Raven in the top lane, Prince in the jungle, Lissandra in the middle, and Ezreal in the bottom lane paired with Braum.

With the strong starters of Prince and Raven, there is no need for support to add another starting position.

Although Thorn Birds does not have a late-stage hero, it is undeniable that even if this lineup develops to a very late stage, the combination of several points will not be weak.

In contrast, EDG's investment in the upper, middle and jungle is undoubtedly greater. The captain, Olaf and the mid laner Zoe try to suppress the Thorn Birds in the middle and jungle. At the same time, they choose Kalista and Niutou in the bottom lane. It seems that I want to ensure my two-way advantage.

It's just that these two advantages don't seem to be so easy to establish.

When the two sides just started, Xiangguo chose blue to open level 2 to capture the middle.

It is impossible for Zoe, a young junior, to choose not to suppress when facing a hero like Lissandra in the early stages.

Since neither side chose to invade at level 1,

The elementary school student originally guessed that the incense pot should be red.

Especially because the Thorn Bird Online was a little late, this clue convinced him that the incense pot was in Hong Kong.

You know, Ezreal and Braum are relatively passive during the laning phase when paired together.

Lin Weixiang and Meiko went directly to the line to grab the line. After they stopped their position, the Thorn Birds were bound to be suppressed in the bottom lane.

However, the Thorn Birds chose to pay the price of the initial line rights in the bottom lane to provide Xiangguo with a chance to gank the middle lane.

Not surprisingly, Zoe was directly out of flash.

After Xiangguo chased Zoe to the lower half, he moved directly towards the bottom lane.

Olaf's early ganking ability is incomparable to that of the prince.

If Olaf doesn't farm the jungle, it will be very slow.

Therefore, faced with Xiang Guo's persistent push to the bottom lane, the EDG bottom lane duo, who saw all this, could only choose to give up the pressure and retreat first.

Ezreal's initial losses from being suppressed were easily recouped.

Zoe flashed back in the middle, and the Thorn Birds' early rhythm was very good. The only disadvantage was that the incense pot's wild brushing rate was slowed down by Olaf.

However, Xiangguo is also very smart. When Xiye teamed up with Xiangguo to make an eye on the river in the lower half of the jungle, he helped Xiangguo Q F6, which increased the speed of Xiangguo's F6 a little.

When Olaf, who was at level 3, tried to catch the prince before he reached level 3, Xiye's vision had discovered him in advance, and Liu Qingsong in the bottom lane immediately disappeared from the sight of the EDG double lane.

Now Xiaotian will have to think carefully if he wants to invade again.

Braum is not another auxiliary. This thing may be slightly less offensive, but its fault tolerance is absolutely full.

After going back and forth, the little wild monster didn't react and exposed his position. As a result, Jin Gong who was on the road was caught and beaten by Brother Holy Spear.

The greasy style of the Holy Gun fits perfectly with Raven.

Even in front of the defense tower, Holy Spear Brother can skillfully use QWA to connect the reverse E to resist the tower without taking any damage.

This makes Jin Gong's last hit very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Jin Gong is an old captain, and he also has the captain's champion skin. He is not in a hurry, and uses the passive of Stealing Omen to steal money.

However, the good times did not last long.

Jin Gong’s Three Minutes of Darkness is here.

After clearing the wild monsters in the lower half of the wild area, Xiangguo returned to the city to make up for the exit. He directly ignored the wild monsters in the upper half and chose to capture the upper road directly.

And it's the kind that jumps over the tower.

When Ruiwen's anti-turret knocked out the captain, Xiangguo's EQ followed up simultaneously. Jin Gong's captain Orange instantly controlled the cross-flash, but Xiangguo used the ultimate cross-flash at the landing point of EQ to knock the captain away.

Fortunately, Xiaotian guessed that Xiangguo might come unexpectedly. His timely support caused Xiangguo, who helped Raven to get first blood, to die on the road. Raven was too flexible to stay.

But this is just the beginning for Jin Gong.

4 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes.

During these three time points, both Lissandra and Xiangguo frequently took care of a wave of captains on the road.

In 7 minutes, Jin Gong was caught 5 times and died 3 times.

Fortunately, his Taoist heart was still there. Although the first-blood tower was directly knocked down by the Canyon Pioneer who was only ten minutes old, Jin Gong did not give up his development.

However, the help Xiaotian can give on other roads is very weak.

However, EDG had a problem in the bottom lane. Niutou blocked Kalista from Braum's Q skill and blocked him. Braum's flash of prediction ultimate hit Lin Weixiang, who landed in cross-dodge but was still knocked away.

The two finally resisted the tower limit and completed the line kill.

Liu Qingsong and Lin Weixiang have been partnered for such a long time, and they really know Lin Weixiang very well.

It is precisely because Liu Qingsong understands Lin Weixiang and is more cerebral than Lin Weixiang, so even though Lin Weixiang also understands Liu Qingsong's operating habits, he is still easy to be PUAd by him.

"The frog is boiling in warm water... The familiar rhythm of the thorn bird is here again."

In the commentary box, when the game time between the two sides reached 15 minutes, Guan Zeyuan sighed as he looked at the economic gap between the two sides, which was about 4,000 yuan.

Just... just press and hit!

The result was not beyond everyone's expectations.

The Thorn Birds did not give EDG any chance. After 20 minutes, the economic gap widened to 6,000 yuan. After 25 minutes of the dragon group, the economic gap between the two sides soared to nearly 9,000 yuan!

In 30 minutes, the economic gap exceeded 12,000!

At 33 minutes of game time, EDG unfortunately lost the first game.

When the first game was over, many people actually had the answer in their hearts.

Thorn Bird really knows EDG very well.

In other words, Li Luo and Zhu Kai know EDG too well.

Except for the ad position, the other configurations of EDG have not changed.

Moreover, EDG's adc has been partnered with Lin Weixiang, Li Luo's current assistant, Liu Qingsong, for a long time.

Even if the version is different, the structure of the team will not change much without too many personnel changes.

The results of the second and third rounds were very different from the first round.

Although EDG relied on their resilience to last until 30 minutes, allowing the Thorn Birds to play the slowest BO5 speed in their team history, the difference in strength in each game was obvious.

Abu in the backstage lounge was dejected.

There's a mole! There is a mole!

Li Luo once participated in all EDG's strategy formulation.

Even though Zhu Kai was a life coach when he was at EDG, he was still studying on the sidelines when studying tactics.

When his team was in front of the Thorn Birds, Abu felt like his pants were being seen through.

With the explosion of the final base, the dust has settled on the No. 1 seed in the S competition in the LPL division.

The legend continues!

Sure enough, there will be problems after being home for two and a half days. Yesterday, I was busy renting a house and looking at houses. I found a small house for 590 yuan a month. I couldn't help feeling the charm of renting a house in a small city. Even if it is a little broken, it is still there. A small nest can accommodate you.
