"Savior is playing very aggressively here! Isn't he afraid of the opposing jungler?!"
In a blink of an eye, the game had already lasted five minutes.
Although he knew that the jungler would come to the bottom zone to check out the little dragon at this time, Xu Yuan didn't care at all.
What does it have to do with me whether you come to the jungle or not?
If you come, I will die!
Come on, do it!
He completely let himself go in this game, not treating the G2 jungler as a human being at all. After getting Draven, he went online and pressed the opponent for five minutes.
And he even went online early.
You know, for the sake of stability, he rarely tries to seize this advantage at the beginning.
Xu Yuan almost had two words written on his face:
Come catch!
However, even though he arrogantly came online early and walked into the vision of the opposite G2 bottom lane defense tower with a crazy expression on his face.
G2 still had no response.
"It's so obvious, I'm a little angry."
The G2 jungler said with gritted teeth.
Fuck, what professional AD dares to play like this?
If there's no jungler behind you, I'll suck your dick after I'm done fighting!
If you want to seduce, can you act a little?
Are you treating me like a moron by playing like this?!
The G2 jungler was extremely angry, but still tried his best to suppress his anger.
The bottom lane is calm.
Xu Yuan frowned, "No, brother, move!"
"Why didn't you react?"
I play like this, and I’m playing a hero like Draven who must be targeted. How can you bear it?
He came online early just to give it a chance.
What's the result?
"I gave you a chance but you didn't make any use of it. You're useless!"
Xu Yuan showed no emotion on the surface, but he was already gritting his teeth in his heart.
Jungler in the trough, you still need me to teach you such a simple thing as catching the enemy, right?
The G2 jungler was completely battling against the air.
After Jiejie lost Xu Yuan's command, he became a sissy in the jungle.
But he was not exposed to the field of vision, which made the G2 jungler very wary.
The counter-camping in the last game gave him PTSD, and there was no way he would make the same mistake again this time.
It wasn't until five minutes later that the junglers of both teams met again in the bottom jungle area.
"Go, go, go! Support, support!"
Xu Yuan's eyes lit up.
He plays aggressively, but being aggressive doesn't mean giving up.
He just gave the opponent a little more chance, but unfortunately the opponent couldn't seize it at all.
It’s okay, Xu Yuan is very patient.
In this game, you have to be C in the middle or in the upper part. If you don’t want to be C… you have to be C that way!
How to create a disadvantage?
Just team up.
As long as the AD moves too aggressively, it will be easy to be killed in a teamfight.
Finish all the damage before you die, and let the mid and top teams reap the rewards!
I'm such a fucking genius!
With this thought in mind, Draven directly activated his W skill and rushed towards G2's jungler.
"Isn't this out of context, Savior?!"
The commentator's surprised voice sounded.
From a God's perspective, it can be clearly seen that there is no one behind Xu Yuan.
Draven ran so fast that Meiko's Thresh could hardly keep up for a while, not to mention other teammates.
Is it possible that Savior is finally...going to die suddenly?
Many of the little black fans who had been hoping that Xu Yuan would make a mistake sat up straight.
However……
"AD came here alone?!"
The auxiliary Mikyx frowned tightly.
"Fuck, Aatrox has retreated, EDG's top laner wants to TP! Can the top laner come?"
The G2 jungler reacted extremely quickly, quickly switching the screen to take a look at the top lane, and spoke immediately.
"I don't have TP! We can't beat five people head-on, four against five. Let's retreat!"
G2's top laner spoke right after.
After a quick exchange of ideas, G2's jungler made the decision without hesitation:
Turn around and run!
The smile that had been hanging on Xu Yuan's lips froze.
"ah?"
If you are not a brother, what are you doing?
What's there to run for?
Look back, look back!
Draven chased more vigorously and directly used the flash in his hand.
At this moment, Miller at the commentary desk had suffered a cardiac arrest.
Is this kind of flash something a normal person can perform?
This is definitely going to cause him to die suddenly!
"There is an ambush! Brothers, retreat! "
However, when the G2 jungler saw him use his flash, he became more confident in his judgment.
Almost at the same time, he gave up his flash.
Without even looking back!
Xu Yuan was dumbfounded.
He simply stayed where he was and didn't chase after him.
"No, you're an AD chasing three opponents? He didn't even turn around to fight you when he was obviously out of touch?"
Meiko, who had finally caught up, was also stunned and very confused.
He was just about to flash to the lantern to save Xu Yuan's life.
Is there such a thing?
Meiko: After playing professionally for so many years, what have I not seen?
Meiko: Damn, I've never seen such a scene before!
"Why is this happening? I find it very strange."
Xu Yuan opened his mouth numbly and imitated the UC editor.
"This is so unreal. What on earth is G2's leader doing? Why are they playing so scary this time?"
Ale's direct comment:
"If G2 was an LPL team, their bank accounts would have been checked after this match."
This wave is so outrageous that it seems like a fake match. It is so exaggerated.
This is also a characteristic of European and American teams.
Sometimes they are able to make brilliant decisions that even the top LCK teams can't cope with.
But more often than not it can only be regarded as a whim, a pure side effect.
Xu Yuan cooperated with Jiejie to take down the little dragon, but it was boring.
Why is it so difficult to die suddenly?
Is there any trick to this thing?
Even Uzi and Ashui, who are definitely top-notch AD players, still had some unexpected deaths.
Uzi's deaths are usually smoother, while A Shui's are more creative.
But Xu Yuan really has no experience.
Not to mention S78 before, S8 was a crushing victory and his playing style was steady.
There was no chance for him to die suddenly in S7.
The most classic situation at that time:
Every time he died, EDG's base would start to smoke.
"Whatever. If we continue like this, there won't be much effect from the exercise."
Xu Yuan gritted his teeth.
"Le! Change the line!"
“I can’t play in the bottom lane anymore!”
He said it very confidently.
"Oh, okay."
Ah Le agreed subconsciously at first.
He has complete trust in Xu Yuan's decision.
But he immediately realized something was wrong.
Can’t play in the bottom lane anymore?
Ale opened the scoreboard.
Looking at Lucian on the opposite side who had eight hits, he looked at Xu Yuan's Draven who had almost forty hits.
There was silence for a moment.
He glanced at the defensive tower again and saw that two layers of Lucian's tower skin had been eaten.
It's only been five minutes...
Who on earth can’t play anymore? ! ! !
Ale felt a little dizzy.
But Xu Yuan had already clicked to return to the city, so he could only choose to return to the city and change lanes.
After all, the throne is here.
If Brother Yuan says we can’t play anymore, then we can’t play anymore.
At this time, Ale was very happy.
"Maybe Brother Yuan wants to switch to the top lane to eat the tower skin?"
He made the most reasonable guess.
However... the next ten minutes were extremely disappointing!
Because he suppressed Xu Yuan in the 2v2 in the bottom lane and won.
After reaching the top lane, he chose to control the line instead.
Xu Yuan's lane change was actually for G2's bottom lane.
If he continues in the bottom lane, G2's bottom lane will be unplayable.
No more pressure.
Wouldn't it be great to switch to the top lane and securely last hits with G2's top laner while waiting for the mid and top laners to carry?
This is Xu Yuan’s plan.
It can also train Ale's ability to withstand pressure.
What's this?
It's a win-win!
But something that Xu Yuan found outrageous happened again.
G2's top laner only takes the lane pushed under the tower!
Why?
Xu Yuan didn't understand.
First, I didn't reduce your health, and second, I didn't block your river eyes.
Why don’t you come up and eat!
From Xu Yuan's perspective, the opponent's top laner is very safe.
However, from the perspective of the G2 top laner, there was only one big——
Danger!
The duo lane that always pushes the line stopped pushing after switching to the top lane. What a joke!
This kind of thing is too weird.
It's like a fisherman who catches a big fish nearby, but chooses to drive home instead of showing off along the road.
Is it outrageous?
It's just so outrageous!
So in this situation, G2's top laner played more steadily.
Xu Yuan's development was slowly caught up by Hans sama's Lucian, but G2's top laner's level was already on par with the duo laner.
For top laners, level is more important than economy.
Xu Yuan used his slight economic advantage in last-hitting to lower the level of G2's top laner.
Strictly speaking, for EDG, they made a profit!
And Ale in the bottom lane was also trying hard to withstand the pressure when facing the duo lane.
Ale is actually a very crazy player.
That's my personality.
He has been crazy since his debut.
When I was in LNG, I also played very casually and unrestrainedly.
After reaching the top 16 for the first time in his life, Ale has grown a lot, but he still has various small problems.
For example, always being stubborn and always wanting to fight with the opponent.
Regardless of economic advantages or disadvantages, we just want to fight.
This is a common problem for offensive top laners. Not only Le, but Bin is also like this.
However, facing G2's duo lane at this moment, Ale learned to be steady.
no way.
If you are not steady, you will really die.
The burst of the duo lane in the early and mid-game is completely incomparable to that of the single lane. After all, when it is two against one, the damage is not of the same order of magnitude.
What's more, G2's bottom lane is a strong combination like Luna.
etc.
Ah Le suddenly felt terrified when he thought about it.
After all, logically speaking, Luna should not be afraid of Draven and Thresh, right?
Not to mention Draven, Thresh is rubbish right now.
There are not many players who can play hard supports in this version.
Hans sama's Lucian is also obviously very skilled.
Then why was he crushed into that state by Brother Yuan?
Brother Yuan...
How strong are you?
"Damn, where's the jungler?"
Xu Yuan finally couldn't help it and spoke Tibetan words.
He waited until the flowers were almost withered.
Dezi's passive ability was already stacked to a terrifying level, but the G2 jungler never tried to catch him once.
This made Xu Yuan feel like ants were crawling all over his body.
This passive skill must be removed, otherwise the pace will be unstoppable when the money is withdrawn!
"Brother Yuan, throw a big one to the middle lane!"
Fozi suddenly spoke and pointed to the middle position.
Xu Yuan subconsciously threw out the ultimate move in his hand, and then looked towards the middle lane.
Then he saw that fofo had reduced Caps' health to half and was still forcing Caps to move.
“Not bad, not bad…”
Xu Yuan couldn't help but nodded.
This time Fozi played pretty well in the laning phase.
but……
etc!
Xu Yuan's eyes suddenly became numb.
This location!
Caps seemed to realize that Fozi also had flash, so he simply saved his flash and prepared to save it for the next team fight.
And the place where he stood was exactly the direction marked by the Buddha!
As the axe came flying from the top lane and slashed at Caps, Draven's ultimate skill, which had added bounty and killing damage, had just enough damage to directly kill off the remaining health of Caps!
EDG.Savior killed G2.Caps!
Suddenly, cheers rang out in Xu Yuan's earphones.
This is... the voice raised by Draven's bounty!
"Not bad, right? Brother Yuan, look at how accurate my prediction is."
"Now your bounty has finally been paid. You should be much ahead financially now."
"Brother Yuan, I did a good job, didn't I?"
The boy smiled shyly.
Please praise!
It was almost as if Fozi had fed the head into Xu Yuan's mouth and helped Xu Yuan's Draven to claim the bounty.
In the eyes of Buddha, this is the light of righteousness.
However--
Xu Yuan: Not a bad idea!
Xu Yuan was numb at this time.
He was heartbroken!
Buddha, you have caused me so much trouble!
He keeps changing lanes and joining team fights, isn't it just to get rid of his passive ability?
As a result, because of Fozi's sudden attack, his bounty was directly raised!
Now it’s hard not to be C.
It is very scary for a player to have an advantage after withdrawing money, but in professional competitions, there are very few players who can withdraw money safely without being targeted.
Xu Yuan never expected that the usually honest Buddhist would suddenly give him a big job.
"……very good!"
Xu Yuan forced a smile,
"come on!"
Fozi happily touched the opponent's middle lane defense tower,
"It's okay, Brother Yuan. It's my duty."
Is it his illusion? I always feel that Brother Yuan is gritting his teeth when he speaks.
It must be an illusion.
Twenty-four minutes into the game, EDG wiped out G2 and pushed forward all the way.
This game was even faster than the first one. After Dezi came up, no one in G2's lineup could withstand his damage.
Xu Yuan, who won the game, had shaking hands when he stood up.
This time, he was stabbed in the back badly.
G2's outrageous decision-making coupled with his teammates' meticulous care, the harder he rushed, the more he lost.
On the contrary, you are less likely to die!
In fact, there were nine people who won on the field, and only Xu Yuan lost miserably.
Even Li Xianghe couldn't make Xu Yuan's hands shake, but Fuzi did it.
From this point of view, he is even more awesome than Lee Sang Hyuk.
When shaking hands after the game, the G2 jungler looked at him with a very angry look.
"Be better at acting next time! You're being too arrogant!"
He tried to say something harsh in a low voice but it sounded weak and more like begging.
Xu Yuan was speechless.
Where did I act?
That's really a chance for you guys!
He had an unfathomable smile on his face, "Watch more replays after the game."
That’s all I have to say.
In that wave, he dodged and the opposing jungler also dodged. It was really fucking outrageous!
Even when Xu Yuan thinks about it now, he still finds it outrageous.
"Is this what you call steady, coach?"
KT Lounge.
After watching the entire game, Aiming was speechless.
Damn, this is called stability?
Being steady means being unbridled, while crossing the tower means being restrained! ?
He saw that throughout the entire game, Dezi was chasing and hacking at the G2 players on the opposite side, acting really crazy.
But G2 really can't beat them.
Aiming is itching to try it out.
League of Legends, start up!
"This should be an accident. It's normal for them to relax when playing against a team like G2."
KT coach tried hard to save face.
"Study more about Savior's previous games. This one was really an accident."
In this game, Druid gave G2 a lot of opportunities, but they just didn't dare to seize them.
Even the KT coach was furious.
"In that case, after defeating G2, EDG also successfully advanced to the knockout stage with a three-game winning streak in the Swiss round."
Miller was somewhat emotional.
"Who would have thought that a few months ago, this EDG team was still in turmoil? Maybe this is life, sometimes a turning point will appear inadvertently."
No one would have thought that EDG, which was worried about whether it could win the playoffs a few months ago, would actually win the No. 1 seed and even qualify at lightning speed with three wins.
Everyone actually knows who is responsible for all this.
Mact nodded and added.
"But I still have to say that Savior's performance this time was very good, but his play was still too risky. It felt a bit hasty and needs further adjustments."
Miller's face turned serious. "This is indeed a problem... I hope there is nothing wrong with their condition. I also hope they can adjust as soon as possible."
Don't you say it's stable?
After returning to the base, Xu Yuan saw Abu's inquiring eyes.
He spread his hands and said, "Coach, it's not that I don't try hard."
Xu Yuan cleared his throat and spoke seriously.
"You keep asking me to give you a chance, but how can I do that? The other side is always afraid to fight."
"Then why didn't he even turn his head after I flashed to chase him in the jungle?"
"Alas, it feels like G2 has lost their brains."
Mingkai, who was thinking with his chin on his hand: ...
Why does this sound familiar?
Abu also knew that Xu Yuan was really helpless, and he thought G2's decision was outrageous.
Even though the food was already in his mouth, he insisted on spitting it out.
"The effect is not very good. We still need to find a strong team that has not entered the world championship to train in the early stage."
Abu frowned.
"Do you have any good relationships with any players? Try to find a team that can play a very aggressive rhythm in the early stage. Most of them are on vacation now, so if you can find one, it's a good one."
A team with a very strong early-stage rhythm?
Xu Yuan thought about it.
"OMG?"
"OMG, I asked, but they're already on holiday."
Abu sighed.
His first thought was also OMG. Although OMG's playing style was a bit formulaic, the rhythm in the early and mid-term was quite tight.
The only problem is that the laning phase is a bit weak, and all three lanes are lacking in performance.
However, since it is so difficult to find opponents in training matches, let’s just say it is a weakness.
It's better than nothing.
As for T1?
Abu didn't even have the courage to ask.
The knockout round will be coming soon. Are we going to play a training match with T1 now?
By then, if T1's BP is guessed by other teams...
EDG is really like yellow mud falling into the crotch, it's shit if not shit.
What's more, T1 is a team that EDG might encounter, so there is no way they will accept this training match.
"Tao Bo?"
After excluding OMG, Xu Yuan’s first reaction was Top Esports.
LNG, which performed better in the summer season, is not good enough.
Because Lao Zan has been sent to KTV at the speed of light.
Even if he didn't go to the World Championship to embarrass himself, he was still killed.
xmm’s kill line has always been very high.
Without Lao Zan, LNG's pace was too slow in the early stage, which did not meet EDG's requirements at all.
"Tao Bo... looks like he's on holiday too."
Abu scratched his head in annoyance.
"Besides, the support is not in good condition, so it may not have that effect."
The assists are all okay.
When Abu saw the wayward shot by Top Esports in the top lane, he knew that there was something wrong with his mentality.
Just because you can laugh during a game doesn’t mean that you have a good mentality.
Some people just make themselves want to laugh when they are upset or depressed.
However, Abu thinks that these mentality problems are minor issues.
The problem can be solved by just letting Zhu Kai drink two bowls of chicken soup. I don’t know why Top Esports’ training team hasn’t taken any action yet.
Maybe it's to train the players' ability to withstand pressure? Abu doesn't know.
If it's Wayward in playoff form, then the practice match really doesn't make much sense.
"It's okay, I'll ask first."
Xu Yuan took out his cell phone and called A Shui directly.
"Hello?"
"...Yes, do you have time?"
"Let it go, that's all."
"You said you haven't returned home yet, can we fight?"
Xu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
It turns out that Bozi is still trustworthy.
"What about your teammates? What's going on with Xiaotian and Song Yijin? And your assistant."
"Da Huang seems to be a little busy. He was taken out for a trial by Brother Hao recently. Lao Song should also have time. Lao Ma is right next to me. I am soloing with him."
In the Top Esports base, Ah Shui chuckled.
"How is it? Is Daddy treating you well?"
"What did my son talk in his sleep?"
Xu Yuan chuckled.
"Okay, let's discuss it tomorrow. I'll call for a top laner then, and I should be able to play a little."
"Just call someone I know."
Ah Shui readily agreed.
Xu Yuan called Rookie again. Rookie on the other end had just woken up and his voice was still a little confused.
After listening to Xu Yuan, he agreed without hesitation.
Then there is Xiaotian.
After making three calls, Xu Yuan put down his phone and smiled implicitly.
"nailed it."
His teammates lowered their voices when he was on the phone, but now they finally spoke louder.
"Is this the power of Yuan Shen? He was able to call back Tao Bo who was on vacation. That's amazing."
Ah Le immediately turned into a compliment guy and gave a thumbs up.
Only professional players know how torturous it is to play League of Legends even when you have a holiday.
The training is already very hard, and many players don’t even want to touch the game during their holidays.
Now that Xu Yuan can call people back to play training games, there is no other explanation except that their relationship is really good.
“Keep a low profile.”
Xu Yuan smiled, pretending to be arrogant and stretched out his hand to press down.
He is indeed quite popular.
He can even be the Shanks of e-sports, saying "give me some face" to many players.
"By the way, you said you wanted to find a top laner, who are you going to find?"
A Le suddenly discovered the blind spot.
"Theshy."
"who?"
Two days later.
After finishing another training match, Ale couldn't help but lean back and stretch.
“I’m so tired…”
This was the only feeling he had.
He really didn't expect that Xu Yuanzhen would call Theshy over.
It's really weird.
Theshy will play League of Legends during the holidays, but he only plays ARAM.
Logically, he is too lazy to even play ranked games, let alone this kind of training matches. And he is still in wbg. Is there no training matches on Weibo?
But Theshy just came, and came as soon as he was called.
I’ve heard before that EDG players of Xu Yuan’s generation had a very good relationship with IG players, but I didn’t expect it to be true.
In fact, Ale is not afraid of Theshy. He has the advantage in several encounters.
But the problem is that this is a training match to train early-stage strength and rhythm capabilities, so basically no heroes are moved.
This also directly led to him having a very difficult time playing against Theshy in the past few days.
Although Theshy is indeed not as good as he was in S8S9, he still plays Kui and Crocodile very well.
Especially his quesanti, which was very greasy.
If Theshy hadn't occasionally chosen heroes like Gary and Nidalee to play pranks on him, Ale would be under a lot of pressure.
Ah Le was just feeling stressed, but Fozi was already sweating profusely.
Because they don't move heroes, and at the same time, Abu will deliberately choose heroes for them that cannot counter the opponent.
This caused him to be very passive when facing Rookie's Leblanc.
I can't win in laning phase, and I can't win when roaming.
Rookie's LeBron James is undoubtedly his specialty.
Even if he can't play all the other heroes, his skill as Leblanc alone is enough to make him a professional player.
Without Xu Yuan's command, Jiejie's jungle rhythm was completely defeated by the now cheerful Xiaotian.
EDG's winning rate in the past two days is actually not low, after all, Theshy and Top Esports players did not cooperate well.
But...it was very uncomfortable to play in the early stage.
"This is the most likely scenario for us facing T1."
Abu had never left the training room and was still standing behind the contestants, speaking seriously.
"T1 has too many tactical reserves. We are likely to be countered."
"In this situation, if you want to withstand the opponent's early pressure, you must make good use of every wave of blood exchange."
"What is our goal? The quarterfinals? The semifinals? The runner-up?"
"no!"
"Our only goal is to win the championship!"
"It may sound a bit arrogant to say this now, but what professional players need to pursue is only the championship."
"Hold on, if you can't even handle the three Carries of IG, then I can only choose to put all my hopes on the bottom lane."
Abu spoke in a deep voice.
He actually prepared for the worst.
Even after training the mid and top positions, there is still no effect, and it is difficult to withstand the laning phase.
At that time, all the burdens will fall on Xu Yuan alone.
Abu knew that Xu Yuan didn't care, he had done this kind of thing in S7.
But he sincerely hoped that this would not happen.
“…”
A Le said nothing, but slapped his face hard to wake himself up.
He has always seen Xu Yuan's efforts.
Ale has nothing but admiration for this teammate who once only existed in the mouths of others.
There is a kind of person whose success others will not be jealous of, but will only feel:
[It would be strange if this guy didn’t succeed].
Xu Yuan is such a person.
Ale can really feel his efforts and beliefs.
So……
Keep training!
And just when EDG was seizing the last period of time before the knockout stage to train hard .
With the official end of the Swiss round, all four LPL teams advanced to the knockout stage.
On the LCK side, T1 and GenG also successfully advanced, and the unlucky KT also made it to the knockout stage with its hard power.
The only one who ended up in disgrace was DK.
While LPL viewers were rejoicing, a rumor suddenly began to circulate online:
"Do you think it's possible that four LPL teams will be among the top four?"
This immediately sparked heated discussions, and the subsequent draw also attracted a lot of attention.
Some people think that it would be better to send one of the top four teams to the semi-finals from the civil war, while others think that the Korean team should just be eliminated from the top four.
The current LPL is in full swing.
Xu Yuan looked at his phone calmly and turned off the screen soon after.
No one seems to have noticed that this year's script top four is a bit like S11.
That year, EDG, the only team in the LPL semi-finals, won the championship...
What is supposed to come may still come.
