"I wonder if you guys have this feeling. If there is a player who can't be targeted no matter how hard you try, what should you do? This kind of thought will come to your mind, right?"
Many Korean anchors are also watching this game.
I watched as the damn Savior on the opposite side once again carried the game, and even brought out a hero like Vayne, who was almost never seen in this version.
A Korean anchor couldn't help but speak up.
“The pressure is just too great!”
"No matter how SSG's bottom lane performs against other teams, when they meet Savior, they will be beaten to silence!"
"Yes, Ruler was not destroyed, but so what? The opposing AD is constantly working and looking for opportunities!"
His face was full of pain, and he covered his face and made ahhhh sounds.
How can there be such a player in the world?
He can stand out no matter whether the situation is balanced or disadvantageous, and he will not give any chance when he has an advantage.
Why?
Such a player...if he were to think about it, only the former SKT mid laner Faker had given him such a feeling.
Could it be that...
"No! Impossible! Trust SSG! SSG will definitely stop that damn Savior from reaching the semi-finals!"
He said this through gritted teeth.
One player like Faker is enough!
"After a narrow escape! EDG defeated SSG and won the first round of the BO5! We can see that Savior is still in excellent form. He doesn't look like it's his first time in the World Championship. He perfectly assumed the responsibility of carrying the team and put in an amazing performance!"
Miller praised quickly without any hesitation.
This is the kind of outstanding fresh blood LPL needs!
If we let those old guys come, can we achieve such an effect?
If Uzi were to replace him, would he be able to perform so well in such a situation?
Miller knew it was too difficult.
The bigger the competition, the more difficult it is to stay calm and in excellent competitive form.
Especially when they are being targeted like this, it is very difficult for many players to maintain their performance.
But precisely because of this, the flowers that can bloom against the wind in such a situation appear particularly beautiful.
"Even with Xayah and Thresh, we can't suppress the opponent's bottom lane?"
At this moment in the SSG lounge, Edgar was not in a very good mood.
Edgar is almost 30 years old this year, and most of the time he rarely shows any emotional fluctuations.
But today, in the first round, he really couldn't hold himself together.
Obviously, both in terms of BP and tactics, they had already exaggeratedly targeted the player named Savior, but it still didn't have any effect.
The opponent is like a monster, and there is no weakness at all.
Edgar was puzzled. Why could he have such a mentality?
Why does he dare to take action when the situation is unfavorable?
Edgar chose a strong combination for the bottom lane in his first BP, for no other reason than to suppress the opponent's bottom lane group.
He didn't even expect to win in the bottom lane.
But even so, Ruler and corejj still couldn't deal with the opponent, and the opponent's AD was always in control of the rhythm.
An EDG-style victory as always.
AD came out to set the pace, turning the originally disadvantageous situation into an advantage.
Edgar was already a little numb.
Even if we move three ADs and then cross the tower against him, we still can't beat him into silence.
So what kind of tactics can win?
"sorry."
"Apologizing won't solve the problem, Ruler."
Edgar shook his head.
Although it was a headache, he also knew that it was not entirely Ruler's fault.
That's his playing style, and it's unrealistic to expect him to kill Savior.
At least the opponent was fully aware of Ruler's suppressive style of play and was not affected at all.
"Do we still want to continue to play around the bottom lane? Or we should use the mid, top and jungle system that we are best at!"
Sect Leader An suddenly spoke.
At this moment, he folded his hands in front of his chest. Although his expression was cold, he did not mean to target Ruler.
He didn't seem to blame Ruler.
This made Ruler, who was watching him carefully, subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.
In fact, for Master An...
What's the point of blaming Ruler?
Although he didn't think much of Ruler, Ruler did what an AD should do.
It’s just that the opponent did too many things that an AD shouldn’t do.
This is not Ruler's problem, it's that the opponent played too exaggeratedly.
To put it simply, the opponent was too strong and Ruler tried his best.
This is not Master An trying to excuse Ruler, this is the truth.
"I now understand why Wolf, that arrogant guy, said something like 'I don't know how to break through him'. It's true...
corejj sighed.
He and Wolf also knew each other, and while they recognized each other's abilities, they also disliked each other.
corejj was still very confident in his hook hero, but this time he almost failed to hit the slippery Vayne on the opposite side.
“We must find a solution!”
Edgar spoke solemnly,
"In the next game, I will choose to give up the bottom lane. Ruler, my biggest request to you is to stay steady and don't get killed out of the lane. Let's play the single-lane system that we are most proficient in!"
Ruler bit his lip and nodded.
"good."
The humiliation burned his mind like a flame.
What does it mean to be asked by the coach not to be killed out of the line?
This means that in the eyes of the coach, it is absolutely impossible for him to beat his opponent.
Ruler is also a talented player, and now he is also a young and energetic talented boy.
This kind of thing is hard for him to accept.
But this is reality!
He just can’t beat Xu Yuan!
So he could only nod and indicate that he would try his best.
Before going on stage, Ruler looked at the stage and took a deep breath.
"The world's best ADC..."
"I don't want it anymore."
“I just want to win.”
In the EDG lounge on the other side, Xu Yuan ignored the photographer accompanying the team and walked to the center of the room.
"SSG will definitely change their tactics in the next game. They will most likely not target me anymore, so the top, mid and jungle must hold on in this game."
"Brother Kai, you must protect Brother Jinghao in this game. If he collapses, we will be dragged down by SSG and it will be very difficult to win the team battle!"
He said it with great certainty.
"What if they're pretending to attack mid and jungle, but are actually planning to target you in bottom lane?"
Mingkai hesitated for a moment and spoke.
Xu Yuan smiled.
"Then they can just wait to be defeated 2-0. I won't give them any chances."
The boy's bright smile was so confident and charming that Mingkai couldn't help but sway.
The urgency and pressure in my heart have dissipated a lot invisibly.
As the big brother of the team, Xu Yuan knows that the more confident he appears, the more encouragement he will give to his teammates.
So he always appears very confident during the game.
It's not just because he is confident in himself, but also to give confidence to his teammates.
Mingkai walked onto the stage step by step, sat down in his seat amid cheers, and suddenly spoke.
"Xiao Yuan, why do you feel like you don't have any pressure at all?"
He had been holding it in for a long time, but he couldn't help but ask.
Xu Yuan smiled.
"Because I have brothers. We EDG are invincible."
"good!"
Meiko, as expected of a support, immediately followed up on his words.
EDG is full of fighting spirit.
Xu Yuan entered the competition room and waited for the competition to begin.
Why would there be pressure?
In other words, what does such pressure mean to him?
In the last ten years of Xu Yuan's previous life, the pressure every day was greater than this kind of competition.
No matter how great the pressure is, is it greater than the pressure of death that may come at any time?
You never know when your life will end. Your heart may stop beating when you wake up from a nap.
These were the last ten years of Xu Yuan’s life in his previous life.
Why was he able to play so many LOL games and reach Diamond 1 under such circumstances?
Because being provoked by teammates is really a small matter for him.
At that time, Xu Yuan quickly accepted his misfortune.
Ten years in bed, a hundred trials turn into gold.
Since death is around the corner, why not enjoy every day that comes?
That's what he thought.
How could Xu Yuan, who was able to adjust his mentality in that situation, feel so much pressure because of playing in the semi-finals?
Second one, start!
In this game, SSG took the initiative to choose the red side.
Edgar knew very well that in the first game of BO5, the blue side already had a huge advantage, and the first game of the blue side meant that there were at least three games played by the blue side.
He was originally planning to use the blue side's advantage to defeat EDG in one fell swoop, but in the first game, EDG's red side broke through the blue side.
Even if I give it to Edgar directly, it won’t work.
But he was the champion coach of S4 and S7 after all, so he adjusted his condition very well and regained his composure immediately.
This time they chose the single-lane system, so when it became clear that they would not be able to defeat EDG's bottom lane even if they took the blue side, Edgar decisively chose the red side.
While resisting Skateboard Shoes' relocation, he also had to help Cuvee get the counter position in the top lane.
When SSG reached the fifth hand of BP, the lineup had been roughly determined.
"ha."
Crown couldn't help but laugh when he saw the hero chosen by Scout.
In this game, the hero Scout used to fight against was Karma .
Brother Crown, on the other hand, is a grasshopper.
The coaches of both sides simultaneously gave up the traditional AP core and directly chose the functional mid laner.
The difference is that the grasshopper is used to target the top lane, while Karma is generally used to cooperate with the ADC in the bottom lane to build an incense burner reef.
This is the mid laner in this version.
Even someone as proud as Scout would be willing to use Karma?
Lee Sang-hyuk, who was watching the game, was a little surprised.
He turned his head and looked to the side.
kkoma still looked solemn.
He has been like this since the beginning of the game, completely lost in thought.
"coach?"
Li Xianghe called out, and Kkoma turned his head and nodded slightly.
"Did you see anything?"
When kkoma heard his question, he nodded with a heavy expression.
"...If we were playing against SSG or EDG today, we might have been defeated 3-0."
He let out a breath, looking a little annoyed.
"EDG and SSG's understanding of the Censer meta is way better than ours."
"Our thinking is slower than theirs. We can have a hard support in the bottom lane, and the top lane solo system may be equally important!"
“For this version, our understanding needs to be updated!”
After watching the first and second BPs, kkoma has gradually figured out the thinking of the two teams, EDG and SSG, in this version.
At this moment, he only felt fortunate.
fine!
Fortunately, today is not a match between SKT and EDG or SSG!
Both of these teams have a higher level of understanding, and if SKT meets them, they will probably suffer a big loss.
"Troll, or Gnar?"
Looking at the top laner Shen chosen by EDG, Edgar hesitated for a moment and decided to ask Cuvee what he thought.
"Nar!"
Cuvee spoke without hesitation.
Edgar nodded and chose Gnar as his last pick.
Both teams’ lineups are formed!
Blue side EDG:
Top Lane Shen
Jungle Xin Zhao
Karma in the middle
The bottom lane team is Kog'Maw and Lulu.
Red Side SSG:
Top Gnar
Jungle Prince
Mid Single Grasshopper
The bottom lane team uses ice and gems.
Use the positive power of gems to support team battles and pull the opponent.
Give Gnar space to solo!
This is the system that SSG is most proficient in.
“The game is about to begin!”
"If we win this game, EDG will have a two-point advantage!"
“This one is very crucial!”
Miller spoke in a deep voice.
"In this game, the top, middle and jungle will likely become the protagonists. Whoever wins the top and jungle battle will get a huge lead!"
Colonel Guan was a little pessimistic at this time.
If Cuvee plays against other top laners, he still has a chance to break through, but against Smeb, who is also a top laner...
Even if Colonel Guan had confidence in Samsung, he still felt that the probability of a breakthrough was very slim.
"EDG's lineup was very good in this game. Although they didn't get Janna, Lulu's ability to protect Kog'Maw was equally strong. They also had Shen in this game. If the game drags on to the late game, EDG's chances of winning are very high."
His tone was a little vague.
Miller glanced at Colonel Guan with a strange expression.
Could this guy be just being utilitarian?
Utilitarian milk is not advisable!
"I think EDG can't just drag the game into the late game with the opponent, they need to gain enough advantages in the early game!"
He spoke quickly.
Miller's one-on-one defense ability has always been good.
Although utilitarian milk is generally useless, Miller doesn't want him to milk like this.
What if Colonel Guan really kills EDG?
This game is not 5v5, it is clearly 6v6.
SSG. Guan Zeyuan vs. EDG. Miller!
The game begins.
"I will play very aggressively in this game. I will try to destroy SSG's bottom lane."
Xu Yuan spoke calmly.
"If they want to play mid and jungle, then they will definitely have some requirements for the bottom lane."
"SSG's bottom lane will most likely choose to play it safe."
"They like to be turtles, so I'm going to step on their faces and hit them."
He spoke lightly.
"I hate those losers who think they can win the game by just being a turtle in the laning phase."
Mingkai was so annoyed, "Damn it, Yuanzi, be careful with your words, this voice message might get out, won't Samsung fans hunt you down if you talk like this?"
Why is this kid so aggressive during a game?
Xu Yuan smiled.
“Then they just can’t afford to lose.”
"Just invade at level 1. If they dare to let the bottom lane handle my pressure by themselves, they should be prepared to be beaten to pieces."
He gave the signal to attack.
“Here it comes!”
Mingkai didn't hesitate and chose to enter the jungle area directly.
By now, he had complete confidence in Xu Yuan's command and did not hesitate at all because of Xu Yuan's age.
This is also normal.
When you play with your roommates, every command you give is effective.
Then your buddies will also listen to your instructions.
It's not about qualifications, but ability.
“They’re in.”
Seeing EDG coming in, Ruler's heart sank.
If the jungle area was still changed, he couldn't imagine how much pressure he would be under in the laning phase.
It was impossible to win in the first place, and the opponent's jungler was still in the bottom jungle area.
Who can withstand this?
He hoped that Master An would defend this wild area.
"Changed."
Sect Leader An was not surprised but delighted, and spoke with a hint of joy.
After inserting the vision, choose to go directly to the upper area.
EDG invades?
Just what he wanted!
The original plan was to play in the upper half of the map, but EDG wants to switch to the jungle area?
That’s perfect, I didn’t want to go anyway.
Ruler: Huh?
elder brother!
This isn't the way to let things roam free, right?
Sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.
This time I really started sweating.
"No resistance?"
Mingkai was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he knew what Master An was planning.
"Smeb, pay attention before level 4. I'll go back to the city after I clear their jungle area and help you watch the wave."
"Yeah, no problem."
Smeb nodded slightly.
He will be targeted this time, but he is not in a hurry.
My teammates have already said they will come, so the top laner can hold on.
What is the most feared situation when playing top lane?
First, he was being severely trained by the opponent's jungler, and then he couldn't defeat his own team.
This is the most desperate.
The second is that the jungler is a fool. Even though the opponent is clearly targeting the top lane, he is like a dead man and can’t call for help.
But Mingkai is obviously not.
MingKai has already said that it will happen once before level 4, so there is no need for Smeb to rush.
Players from both sides come online and the laning battle begins!
Xu Yuan's position was not aggressive, and he did not intend to fight particularly aggressively at level one.
Laning is like falling in love. If you reveal your purpose from the beginning, the difficulty will increase dramatically.
Xu Yuan wanted to defeat Ruler, but putting pressure on Ruler would make it harder to kill him.
He has to give Ruler some confidence to continue fighting in the laning phase.
Only in this way can he seize the opportunity.
So the way to play Kog'Maw at level one was very conventional, just pushing the line to get level 2, and he didn't even actively use W to exchange blood with Ashe.
With Lulu's help in attacking the minions, Kog'Maw can still reach level 2 first.
Ruler did not dare to be careless at all, and treated even a simple last hit as a formidable enemy.
He had signed a military order and promised Edgar that nothing would happen in the bottom lane.
He handled the minion line carefully and retreated directly when the big mouth was about to reach level 2.
"really."
Xu Yuan was not surprised that Ruler chose to be a turtle.
After he pushed the line of troops directly to the defense tower, he began to use the intervals between the defense towers to continuously pull Ruler.
Without W, Kog'Maw's attack range is not as far as Ashe. Xu Yuan chooses E at level 2 just to pull the opponent.
Blood transfusion cannot be rushed.
Use E to slow down and attack once, then resist the ice attack and retreat immediately.
Use Lulu's shield to offset damage and attack whoever you can.
Every time you choose to exchange blood, it is when the defense tower locks the soldiers or when the ice is stuck in the soldiers.
This pulling technique is actually very basic, but it is undeniably useful.
The gap in last-hitting in the bottom lane began to widen gradually, because whenever Ashe tried to fight back, she would lose the last-hit.
At level three, go directly to the river to control the river crabs.
The laning in the bottom lane was stable for the time being. Apart from losing some health, Chidi was only five or six knives behind, less than a wave of laning.
This also made him feel relieved.
fine.
At this time, Mingkai was already heading towards the top lane.
Although Smeb is told to be careful before level 4, he has to move up from level 3.
And Sect Leader An also spoke at this time.
"E?"
"No use, he's very calm."
Cuvee responded in a deep voice.
What Master An asked was whether Smeb had used E. If he had used it, there would be a chance.
Master An was not disappointed with this answer.
"Can you seduce me a little?"
“…It’s difficult.”
"Let's try it. Let's lure the opponent's jungler out and then focus our fire on him!"
Master An was not willing to give up.
He guessed that Smeb would not give him a chance, so he came up with this idea.
Surround the point and attack the reinforcements!
It is indeed difficult to catch Shen if he doesn't use E, but Xin Zhao still has a chance to kill him.
Just as Smeb pushed the line into the tower, Master An appeared in the top lane!
" Master is here! But isn't this a bit too hasty? The factory director is on top!"
Colonel Guan suddenly spoke, his tone worried.
The jungler is right behind them, so they choose to push the line.
Doesn’t Baiyin know this?
Is Master An anxious?
Miller was suddenly startled and was about to speak when the fighting had already begun on the field.
After Smeb retreated, Mingkai suddenly appeared halfway.
Then SSG's top and jungle suddenly changed their focus, and all the skills they had been holding were directly used on Mingkai!
The Prince used EQ to provoke Mingkai, and Cuvee chased him with A just in time to grow bigger. When E jumped into the air, he had already pressed W, and stunned Mingkai directly when he landed.
The Q skill was thrown out and hit perfectly.
Mingkai gave up his flash, but was still caught up by Gnar's flash and was slapped to death.
First blood!
Smeb couldn't save him at all. When he turned around to taunt with his E skill, the Prince's EQ had already been used.
“Nice!”
Backstage, Coach Edgar applauded.
With a happy face.
Smeb could only watch SSG's top and jungle retreat.
“Got it!”
Master An was very excited.
This is me!
This is the most comfortable rhythm for our SSG.
"Tube?"
"It's broken, Miller, hold on!"
"This poisonous milk is too terrible!"
The LPL audience was stunned. They originally thought it was a beautiful counter-camp, but they didn't expect that after Colonel Guan spoke, EDG would be at a disadvantage.
Is this management?
Ha people!
Seven minutes into the game, Master An arrived at the middle lane.
Scout's vigilance is still very high, and the opponent's mid laner Grasshopper has already reached level six.
But it didn't work.
Grasshopper suddenly flashed near the center line and used his R skill to hold down Scout who was replenishing the artillery vehicle!
The prince waited for about a second before coming out of the shadows with EQ and then knocked him away.
The control chain is full!
Scout used flash immediately after releasing the control, but Master An still flashed and took down Karma's head.
"You went to the middle?"
Mingkai was caught off guard.
Master An's sudden change of thinking left him unable to cope with it.
But he simply chose to cooperate with Shen to cross the tower.
Zhao Xin still has some burst.
However, after seeing him, Cuvee retreated directly without giving him any chance.
Although it helped Smeb lose a lot of health, it was completely unable to stop the loss!
In this game, SSG set the pace in the early stages.
However, just when Master An was feeling proud of himself, he suddenly found that he had returned home.
The reason I say "again" is because the bottom lane has already returned to the city once at level 3.
"Is it so hard to fight?"
Master An wanted to ask what was going on.
Ruler's face turned slightly red, out of shame.
“I can’t defeat you…”
He really can't beat him.
Xu Yuan handled the blood transfusion very well. After knowing that Master An would not come, he started frantically looking for Ruler to transfuse blood.
Although Ruler had already accepted the defeat, he still had to fight back when he was hit under the tower.
However, the defense tower seemed to be broken, and was unable to shoot out at all as Xu Yuan pulled it.
This directly resulted in the healer being beaten out and having no choice but to return to the city.
"That's it. As long as you don't die, you can win this time!"
Master An did not blame too much.
Blame your teammates during the game?
It does nothing except make it harder to fight.
"……good."
Ruler swallowed and nodded.
After killing Scout, Master An wanted to control the dragon directly.
But at this step, I got stuck.
Because EDG had an absolute advantage in the bottom lane, Xu Yuan and Meiko rushed directly to the river, hindering An Zhangmen's control of the dragon.
Although Karma is dead, she still has TP.
The resurrection time is not long in the early stage, so they can hold on.
"never mind."
Master An gave up directly and chose to leave after completing the vision.
This wave is really hard to fight. EDG's bottom lane came too fast.
This is the discipline of the Korean team.
"If they don't want to fight, then we're going to fight them!"
"Open the dragon!"
At this time, Lulu was unable to wander around.
Don’t think that the Ice Gem is under pressure from Xu Yuan.
If Lulu left, it would be Xu Yuan who would be sweating profusely.
Therefore, Xu Yuan must use the strength of the bottom lane to break the deadlock.
Forcing the opponent to join the team is a good way.
Sect Leader An's footsteps of leaving suddenly stopped.
"Will the dragon give it?"
The mid laner Crown asked.
“…I gave it to you.”
Sect Leader An gritted his teeth.
Although the advantage made Long uncomfortable, he knew very well that he couldn't win.
Shen is already level 6, which is when EDG's lineup is at its strongest in the early stages.
We can’t give EDG a chance to team up!
It is very difficult for SSG to win team battles because the C position in the bottom lane of the opponent is too strong.
In the last game, SSG had learned their lesson.
"They think they are turtles? Just velociraptors!"
Xu Yuan was not disappointed. It was expected that SSG would release the dragon.
It's just right for playing against the Raptors.
Even though there is no dragon soul mechanism now, it is still not easy to release the fire dragon or earth dragon.
"Vision invasion!"
After defeating the little dragon, immediately invade the vision.
Light up SSG's bottom lane!
As a result, Ruler's pressure immediately became enormous.
Xu Yuan keeps attacking the tower.
Although we lost two lives, it doesn’t matter.
He is a big mouth.
The dragon is also controlled.
This disadvantage is really acceptable.
Seeing that the defensive tower was constantly threatened, Crown in the middle lane was forced to go to the bottom lane to defend the line.
Xu Yuan retreated directly without any idea of ​​taking any action.
You can't kill people under the tower.
"Protect me from eating wild."
He spoke calmly and walked into Master An's lower wild area.
Whose jungle is this?
No one asked me to take it away!
The jungle has been lit up.
Don’t you, Master An, not care about the bottom lane?
The defensive tower can indeed be defended, but how do you defend the jungle?
This is how Xu Yuan deals with SSG!
You like turtles, don't you?
Then your jungle is mine.
No line rights is like that.
By the time the game time was thirteen minutes, Kog'Maw had already dealt 151 hits!
If you don’t know, you might think he ate three meals a day.
In fact, he just ate Master An's jungle twice.
Although we missed a little bit of the minion line because of eating the jungle area, the money of wild monsters is much more than that of soldiers.
Today's artillery vehicles are not as expensive as the mythical version.
"Brother Jinghao, let's change the line!"
Like to target Smeb?
Haha, at this time I, a fat Big Mouth, am taking Lulu to change lines, what will you do?
Xu Yuan’s plan was to kill SSG’s top laner with his own hands.
Like to play solo?
Can you carry it?
Kog'Maw came to the top lane, and although Cuvee was surprised, he remained calm.
But when he opened the status bar and took a look at his equipment, he suddenly felt unwell.
"Shit, how can he have such equipment?"
"What are you guys doing in the bottom lane? Shit."
"With his development like this... you might as well just kill him online!"
The time is now fourteen minutes, and Kog'Maw's equipment is already attack speed shoes, sheep knife, and yellow fork, and he is heading for the hurricane!
Cuvee was dizzy.
The bottom lane is also dead?
Where did you get this kind of B development?
