Chapter 740: Summer Resurrection Tournament!
C9 was lifted.
The next game to be played is EDG vs. RNG.
The winner will enter the finals and compete with IG for the annual championship.
Did you find anything?
right!
Damn, it's exactly the same as the LPL summer playoffs process!!
"Nest, it's really a replica!"
“Awesome!”
"Semi-finals against RNG, finals against IG, LPL resurrection match?"
“Fuck hahahahahaha.”
"The resurrection match made me laugh to death ."
"EDG: We can't kill them all. We can't kill them all at all."
"Holding a revival match is a good idea, but using the World Finals as a summer revival match is definitely a unique move!"
"LPL Summer Season = World Finals, there is no need to argue about who is the top region, right?"
“…”
The audience was delighted.
The World Finals have reached this point.
Not only the top three LPL players have proven their abilities.
Even JDG, the little fourth team that has only been established for a year, has been highly regarded.
Let's compare.
The first two characters of KT, the much-hyped Galaxy Battleship, turned into a silver box.
Samsung S8, which was renamed GEN, really exploded.
AFs' Kiin is known as the No. 1 top laner in LCK. He couldn't even beat 'Licorice Essence' from C9 team. He is not on the same level as Xing Dao who defeated FNC single-handedly.
Of the three seeds in LCK, one was eliminated in the group stage and two were eliminated in the quarterfinals, which is the same level as JDG.
If placed in LPL, it would only be second or third rate.
Forget about getting first place, you can’t even get into the first tier!
certainly.
From a purely neutral perspective, this measurement is somewhat intentionally derogatory.
But the results are here, who can stand up and refute it?
Pull it out and hit it again?
Do you think that every region has the same treatment for the 'revival match'? !
"In the end, it turned into a civil war?"
Although Abu expected the result, he still found it very interesting to see the trend like this: "We will play RNG first and then IG?"
"Killing an old friend!" Xing Dao chuckled, "Close the door and let the factory guy go!"
"You... kid..." The factory manager said angrily: "It was UZI who closed the door, not me. Do you know how to use words?"
"They're all the same, all the same, they're all things from home." A Shui joined in the fun.
"Yu Wenbo (A Shui), you want to talk about livestock, right?!" Meiko exposed his partner's past.
“Hahahahahahahaha—”
“Hahahahahaha—”
Xiye, Zizi and Jiejie were all laughing happier than the other.
This made Xing Dao inexplicably worried.
Fortunately, after watching it over, I found that everyone did it in one go and no one was laughing twice, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
"Let's talk business."
Abu straightened his expression and became serious: "I have carefully studied the four games played by RNG and JDG. They are no longer superstitious about Kaisa. They have found the thread of the version."
"but……"
Having said this, Abu deliberately paused.
After all the players had their attention, he continued: "When RNG played against us, Letme in the top lane could only withstand pressure, while Xiaohu in the middle lane was actually a player who didn't dare to use extreme operations - he had operations, but he would tend to choose a more stable approach unless he had no other choice."
"UZI is RNG's strongest point. When facing an evenly matched or even stronger opponent, RNG often chooses the tactic of "four protecting one" and puts the responsibility of carrying on UZI."
"That is to say, they are likely to launch an attack from the bottom lane, so we are considering taking countermeasures based on this."
"No problem." The factory manager nodded.
As LPL has developed to this day, the two players who have maintained the longest peak period are Zz1tai and UZI.
Others such as the Universe Man Smile, the top lane overlord PDD, the DJ boy Zzitai, the leader Gao Diping, the king of team battles Tong Wudi, and even the Fizz who often kills Faker alone, the Tang Sect's No. 1 Sword, can only be described as a flash in the pan in comparison.
Therefore, Pig and Dog are regarded as the face players of LPL.
The "pig and dog war" caused by the nicknames is also the most talked about.
The factory manager is the jungler.
Want to study MSI... Bah!
It is to study the behavioral habits of the main opponents.
Especially studying UZI.
In addition to things like ganking, Jiejie, who focused on the top lane after joining the team, might not be able to do well.
Therefore, when facing RNG, letting Zzaizhuang start is the best choice.
"We have another advantage here."
Meiko said: "Letme in the top lane will definitely be at a disadvantage, and Xing Dao can better radiate the advantage to the bottom lane... It's not about letting Xing Dao focus on support, nor sacrificing development support, but when a small-scale teamfight breaks out and there are low health that can't be escaped, Xing Dao can completely come down and harvest a wave of economy."
"Okay." Xing Dao took the lead.
It’s not that Xing Dao is unwilling to sacrifice.
But Xing Dao's sacrifice for his teammates may not have a positive effect.
Compared to A Shui, who has the risk of Q connection and can deliver explosive damage but is not so stable, it is obviously easier for EDG to win by concentrating the economy on Xing Dao.
This is a choice that takes the best of the best.
It's not the so-called team bullying behavior.
"Next is the middle."
Abu mentioned another point: "My idea is not to have a head-on confrontation with Xiaohu, that is, not to put too much pressure on him, and let him honestly use a development hero to mix the field."
"I understand!" Xiye nodded.
On personal strength.
Xiye thinks he is no less capable than Xiaohu.
I am definitely not afraid even if a fight comes.
But judging from historical records, Xiye and Xiaohu Solo are indeed at a disadvantage.
The title of "Little Tiger Power Bank" has not been completely removed yet.
Of course, the reason here is that WE's other positions are too weak, and Xiye, as the dean, has to divide a large part of his energy between support and command, and cannot concentrate on laning.
But no matter what.
The game records are here.
If you can avoid a head-on confrontation, you should do so.
Anyway, there are big names in the team!
As for the fact that it is difficult to get highlights when being a slacker... Xiye is not only not unwilling, but feels very comfortable instead.
Think about it.
In the WE team, even if Xiye is not sure of defeating Xiaohu, he will try his best to find ways to establish an advantage.
Because they have four teammates who are both dragging the team down and causing trouble, WE will definitely lose as long as Xiye cannot establish a big enough advantage.
To put it nicely, Xiye is the dean of WE.
To put it bluntly, it means being in jail in WE!
After joining EDG, Xiye is no longer in a hurry because he has a whole group of strong and hairy top laners to cling to.
It is easier to develop than to attack.
Just focus on defense, as long as no major problems occur, it will be easier than developing.
If Xiaohu is in a hurry to attack, Xiye might be able to take advantage of the situation and use his own tactics to fight back!
…
In the RNG team.
After watching IG's speedrun of North America's third seed C9, they also had the routine pre-match discussion in the conference room.
Professional players are certainly confident.
Even a bit arrogant and contemptuous.
However, they have a clearer understanding of the actual gap than ordinary players and even the coaching team.
To put it bluntly.
If the RNG players have a 20% to 30% chance of winning, they will dare to go up and fight.
As long as they are 10% sure of winning, the RNG players dare to give it a try.
But facing EDG after S6, RNG has never won a single game. No matter how powerful Crazy Dog, Tiger Jiuwan, Fasting Wild King, Radar Wild King and others are in their respective fields, the word "confidence" is out of the question.
The most important thing is.
It goes without saying that RNG cannot beat EDG in a fight.
Even IG, which is the best at fighting in the LPL region besides EDG, was beaten badly in the fight with EDG in the summer finals.
RNG's top lane is obviously weak, and the mid lane is not as good as Rookie's team, needless to say.
operations……
Don’t mention it!
Compared with the top teams in LCK, EDG's operational capabilities are not worth mentioning.
But compared with RNG, or to be more precise, compared with other LPL teams, EDG's operations are definitely at the level of a pioneer.
EDG can do everything other teams can do.
EDG can do it, but many other teams can't.
Moreover, operations are not like a tree without roots or water without a source, nor can you get what you want just by talking. Everything must be based on the player's ability to hold his ground.
The advantages and disadvantages will not be mentioned for now.
At least you have to be able to 'get moving' to be qualified to operate.
When laning against Xing Dao, Letme was almost like a human-shaped pendant next to the defensive tower. How could the RNG team operate?
All beings are equal?
This is the "Equality for All" PLUS version!
If Letme is a large cup, Xing Dao is an extra large cup!
"It's impossible for us to defeat EDG using conventional tactics."
RNG coach Sun Dayong communicated with the players through a translator: " We must design a trap for EDG to get in and disrupt their layout and ideas. Only in this way can we seize that ray of hope."
"But how do we design a trap for EDG to fall into?" Xiao Ming raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, his face full of questions.
Letme felt very aggrieved facing Xing Dao.
Xiao Ming, who has been in LPL for less than a year, was not much better when facing Meiko, the number one M-type support.
When talking trash before, Xiao Ming thought about it for a long time and found that he did well in every aspect, but Meiko did better...
Before the Asian Games, Xiao Ming didn't know how to describe this feeling.
After the Asian Games, it became clear after seeing Chidi's description.
Damn it!
It seems like I didn’t do anything wrong, but I just can’t win!
"It's too difficult to outwit EDG." Xiaohu was worried: "Before, we could try to switch lanes, but this time FNC was so stupid when they switched lanes... How did they come up with the idea of the support going to the top lane to fight with the top laner?"
"Xing Dao has a very strong understanding." UZI said with a serious face: "I think compared with laning and teamfighting, his understanding of the game is his strongest aspect. When he participated in the Asian Games before, he always came up with useful ideas in every meeting. Note that it means every time!"
As the saying goes, every inch has its own strength.
For professional players standing at the forefront of the pyramid, it is normal to have occasional flashes of inspiration, no matter if they are reckless or not.
Every time an idea is useful, it cannot be explained by a 'flash of inspiration'.
Whenever UZI thought about this, he became extremely alert.
There is still some emotion that I can't express.
"So what?"
"Gene ral is not a human being?"
After hearing the description of the main players, Sun Dayong deliberately put on a confident smile, even though he felt a little nervous, "Listen to me, we can do this..."
