You said you would teach top lane, but are you going to get materials for the world competition?

This direct dialogue between LGD and RNG is likely to determine whether there will be a team that wins all regular season games in this year's LPL Summer Season.

However, even so, LGD did not do any special targeted training.

It was just regular preparation. DGC was going to play against RNG in this game and continued the recent regular style of play.

Highlighting a confidence in their own strength.

So what if RNG has been winning streak recently?

It's just that they didn't meet LGD.

Therefore, in this regular season against RNG, the LGD team felt that there was no need to treat it differently.

Just follow the normal training step by step.

August 12, Saturday.

The match between LGD and RNG was scheduled for the third game today.

The first two games ended with a score of 2-0, which did not occupy the time of the following teams.

So the third game started at 6 pm.

LGD still continued the mainstream style of play around the bottom lane in the current version.

They have done this in most of their games in recent weeks, and the recent winning streak also shows that this style of play is quite effective.

But today, when we met RNG, it seemed that it was not very effective.

Since returning from the summer season, Uzi's state is really full.

It is still too difficult to break through RNG's bottom lane head-on.

In the first game, Uzi's Frost ended Imp's record of eight wins in the summer regular season.

RNG won the first game.

In the second game, RNG was on the blue side and LGD was on the red side.

In the latest version, the BP of the red side is really not easy to do, and there are too many heroes to ban.

Skateboard shoes must be banned.

However, after the first round of bans, DGC found that neither Xayah nor Rakan was banned, and forgot about it.

There are still some hidden dangers.

As a result, RNG on the blue side directly grabbed the big worm on the first floor, and neither of the two heroes Xayah and Rakan was selected.

Then LGD was not polite, and directly took the Xayah and Rakan combination on the first and second floors.

PYL and imp were the first to use the Xayah and Rakan combination in LPL. After getting Xayah and Rakan in this game, they lived up to expectations and carried the game.

LGD won a game back.

In the third and final round, before the LGD players said anything, DGC was already weak.

In the third round of BP, DGC directly changed the way LGD had been playing around the bottom lane recently.

It changed back to the way LGD had been playing before the Intercontinental Championship.

He was really afraid that if he lost this round, his dream of winning all the games in the summer season would be broken.

So, let's do something safer!

In recent weeks, Zhou Dian has been playing tank heroes in LGD's games.

So the teams that LGD has played against recently did not choose to ban Fiora.

Moreover, the carry ability of Fiora has been getting worse and worse in recent versions.

The same is true for RNG today.

Fiora was not banned in the first two games, and LGD did not choose it at all.

In the third game, RNG naturally would not ban it.

Then, when LGD locked Fiora.

Letme's face turned green on the spot.

In the end, Zhou Dian's Fiora also achieved an unsolvable single-handed push, and LGD successfully won the final round and won the regular season against RNG.

LGD's winning streak since the start of this year's summer season continues.

The next day is Sunday.

It is the last game day of the ninth week of the regular season.

On this day, the bottom three teams of this year's LPL summer season, DAN, IM, and Snake Team in Group B, all appeared.

Then they lost the game one after another.

Now the record of these three teams is only 4 wins, but DAN still ranks fourth in Group A with a small point advantage.

With only one week left in the regular season, DAN's hope of entering the playoffs seems to have increased.

However, DAN has lost ten games in a row. As long as you are a normal person, you think that even if DAN is lucky enough to enter the playoffs, it is purely a delivery.

Moreover, DAN's ten consecutive losses also refreshed the current longest losing streak record of LPL.

The time came to August 17, and the last week of the LPL summer regular season started.

After the last ten BO3 games, the summer season will enter the playoffs.

The top three of Groups AB have been determined, but the specific rankings may change.

The fourth place in the two groups, which is the last playoff spot in each group, has not yet been determined and will be decided in the last week of the regular season.

In fact, in the eyes of the audience, no matter which team in the two groups finally gets the fourth place, the gap with the top three is too big, and it is pure giving to enter the playoffs.

However, we still have to fight for what we should fight for.

The first game was the BO3 between the Snake team and WE.

As a result, the first game was a small upset. The Snake team unexpectedly defeated WE with a score of 2 to 1.

Now the Snake team's record has reached five wins, directly surpassing DAN's four wins, and it has reached the fourth place in Group A.

This undoubtedly sentenced the DAN team to death.

Because no one would think that DAN, which has lost ten games in a row, can defeat IG in the last game and regain the fourth place in Group A.

And the Snake team has one last game left, and the opponent is IM, the direct competitor of the fourth place.

As long as they can win a small game in the BO3 with IM two days later, it will be enough to beat IM and enter the playoffs.

By 9pm on August 20, the regular season of the 2017 LPL Summer Split was all over.

In the last game against IM, Snake lost to IM, but lost with a score of 1 to 2.

So Snake finally ranked ahead of IM with a small advantage of one point and entered the playoffs as the fourth in Group A.

Snake's record in the first eleven rounds of this summer season was two wins and nine losses.

In the end, it was beyond everyone's expectations and made it to the playoffs.

One person must be mentioned among them - Crystal brother kRYST4L.

After the BO10 of the S6 bubble match, Crystal brother's hand suffered a serious injury, which was no longer enough to support his operation as a professional ADC.

So, Snake Club introduced Korean aid - Ohq in the ADC position.

In order to play in the game, Crystal brother resolutely switched to the auxiliary position, just like Uzi after he went to OMG.

It's a pity that Ohq is too bad, otherwise he would not be called the worst Korean aid in the history of LPL.

Before the second round of the regular season, Snake manager Zuo Wu couldn't bear it anymore and had to slap himself in the face and took down Ohq, whom he had advocated to introduce.

Shuijing was ordered to return to the ADC position.

In the last five regular season games, he led the Snake team to three wins and two losses, and entered the playoffs.

Snake fans said they were "crying"!

In the last BO3, DAN lost to IG with a score of 1 to 2.

Originally, DAN won the first game of this BO3.

Many people thought that DAN was finally going to win the BO3 after two months.

And in this BO3, TheShy was not good at giving away. He kept giving away in three games.

But IG's ADC Xihuang was so fierce in the last two games that he was not like a human.

IG had already locked in the third place in Group A, and the others played more or less casually.

As a result, Xihuang directly dragged four people, played two crazy Cs, led IG to make a comeback, and directly kicked DAN out of the playoffs.

Seeing the West King so brave, IG fans exclaimed:

"If the West King can always be in this state today, then there is no need for JackeyLove!"

JackeyLove, who was introduced by IG as a talented teenager, cannot represent IG this year because of his age.

However, IG fans have always placed their expectations on JackeyLove.

I didn't expect that the West King would be so fierce recently.

The DAN team, which lost the game against IG, ended its first LPL season with an unprecedented eleven consecutive losses, ranking last in Group A.

When DAN ranked first in Group A and said "LPL is just like this", how arrogant it was, and now it is mocked by fans of other teams.

I can only say that it's all self-inflicted!

After all, in e-sports, being bad is the original sin.

As for LGD, after winning RNG last week.

The last two opponents can't cause any obstacles to LGD at all.

LGD ended its 17th LPL Summer Season regular season journey with a record of 16 consecutive wins.

This is also the second LPL regular season undefeated team after EDG in last year's summer season.

EDG in last year's summer season finally won the summer season championship with a perfect record.

Now the whole LGD team naturally wants to win the subsequent playoffs, complete the summer season undefeated championship, and replicate EDG's feat last year.

And after winning all the regular seasons, with such a winning rate.

Zhou Dian also wiped out the slight gap in the number of MVPs in a single game in the regular season.

With a one-point advantage, he overtook Xiaohu, who overtook Scout at the last moment, and topped the [strongest combat power] score ranking.

This means that Zhou Dian will be the regular season MVP of this year's LPL Summer Season!

The first round of the 17th LPL Summer Season playoffs will start on August 22.

The top four of Groups AB in the summer regular season will enter the playoffs.

In the final ranking, the top four teams in Group A are EDG, WE, IG, and Snake.

Group B is LGD, RNG, NB, and OMG.

In the first round of the playoffs, the third team in each group will play against the fourth team in the other group.

That is, IG vs. OMG, Snake vs. NB, BO5 single-elimination system.

As for LGD, as the first team in Group B, it will start directly from the semifinals of the playoffs.

In this year's LPL Summer Season, due to the addition of an intercontinental competition in the middle, the regular season was suspended for more than ten days.

So the subsequent schedule is very tight.

The regular season was not finished until August 20, and the playoffs started just two days later on August 22.

However, under the current competition system, there are not many games to be played in the playoffs.

In the two groups of the regular season, in the playoffs, the third and fourth teams of the group will play in the first round, the second team of the group will start from the second round, and the first team of the group will directly advance to the semifinals.

And all are single-elimination systems.

Then this means that only six BO5 games are needed to determine the two teams in the final.

Not only is the time between the regular season and the playoffs short, but the playoffs will also use a new version.

The game version has changed from 7.15 to 7.16.

And the 7.16 version has only been updated in the Korean server for a week.

The LPL version changes this time are quite timely. There is no situation that the version used in the previous LPL game is almost a month behind the casual game.

This undoubtedly tests the adjustment and adaptability of each team.

The 7.16 version used in the playoffs has no major changes compared to the previous version.

The designer has not made any adjustments to the increasingly powerful bottom lane for the time being.

This is also normal. Designers have always had a long reaction arc, a slow adjustment cycle, and incomplete consideration of problems.

Often, the closer it is to the world championship, the easier it is for League of Legends designers to come up with some deformed versions and produce some version monsters.

Players are too lazy to complain!

In the 7.16 version to be used in the playoffs, there are only two equipment changes.

One is to slightly weaken the salary equipment of the Ancient Coin. The designer said that it was to limit the soft auxiliary that has become more and more popular recently, but in fact this change has no effect.

Changing is the same as not changing!

Second, if the jungle knife is upgraded to Slag Giant, the synthesis fee is increased by 75 yuan.

The original intention is of course to weaken the popular tank jungler, but this little change is better than nothing!

Tank heroes are now not only popular in the jungle, but also in the top lane.

The tree was weakened in this version, and the damage of throwing tree sons was reduced.

However, for Zhou Dian, there is good news in version 7.16.

That is, Fiora has been strengthened in this version.

Although Fiora can still play well in Zhou Dian's hands.

But the overall win rate and performance of Fiora have been sluggish for several months.

Now the designer finally remembered to strengthen Fiora.

In version 7.16, the extra movement speed provided by Fiora's passive [Duel Dance] has increased a lot compared to before, especially in the later stage, the increase is greater.

It will undoubtedly make Fiora's pulling ability stronger.

In fact, this enhancement can only be said to be better than nothing, and it is useless.

But Zhou Dian feels that his Fiora is already thirsty.

No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat!

As for the other changes in the current version, they have nothing to do with the top lane, and are mainly focused on the mid-lane heroes, all of which are minor repairs.
