Chapter 623 Champion skin appears in the Asian Games finals

Chapter 623 Champion skin appears in the Asian Games finals
Throughout 18, Faker's decline was quite obvious. Even SKT wanted Faker to focus on commercial endorsements and become a business card for the club's external publicity.

Many people think that this is a case of getting rid of the donkey after it has served its purpose and trying to squeeze out the last bit of value.

The problem for the club is that they have to think about the post-Faker era. The lifeblood of the club shouldn't be tied to the players.

The head follows the butt. From the club's perspective, the reconstruction in 18 was not smooth. The two kings U and T were scolded every day and often broke down. Then, Faker's injuries became more and more serious, and his performance on the court was erratic.

Let’s put it this way…

This year, Faker played against BBQ team's mid laner Tempt, and dealt 3602 damage as Kassadin, which was not as good as the team's support Braum.

Not to mention Captain Teddy's famous battle, which lasted for 94 minutes, and finally Faker's Kassadin was left alone and was caught by the Mantis, winning the game.

Let’s count down further.

BDD played against Faker and dominated with Tsar. KT's small mid laner Ucal also defended Faker and was recognized by Korean media...

Those who often watch LCK should know.

The most impressive thing about Faker in 18 is that he had to be naughty and then die. He knew that the opponent was nearby, but he was inexplicably sure that he would not be hit by skills.

and so…

SKT management considered the post-Faker era, not because they were stupid, but because everyone said Faker was old.

Including e-sports associations.

A star successor is also needed to take over Faker's ecological niche.

To put it harshly.

Faker is already 23 years old. According to the understanding at that time, this age is already linked to retirement, and half of the body is buried in the earth.

In the minds of managers, e-sports is a job for young people, and if they continue to stay in it when they are old, the only outcome will be a disgrace to their later years - 3602's Kassadin... and his ID is still Faker.

Think about Xiaohu's 2200 salary...

Until now, you can still find headlines online about SKT being beaten to tears by BBQ.

Why.

Because it was too outrageous, fans couldn't accept it, which was also the reason why fans and management were at loggerheads in 18.

after all…

The management wanted to promote 'newcomers', and fans saw this trend and hated the management for not taking action (not making any effort during the transfer period).

So, rather than describing it as a palace fight, it would be more accurate to say it is a crisis of trust.

The source of the crisis is a group of professional elites who do not play games. They believe that Faker cannot make SKT great again, and they want to spend 2 to 3 years to eliminate some of Faker's influence and retain as many fans as possible.

This is a rough thing...

Faker's halo is too strong and it is too difficult to push him forward.

The most important thing is that Faker himself is still willing to fight and is not convinced by public opinion or people around him, even though there are examples all around him - along the way, from opponents to teammates, many people choose to accept old age and lose their passion for the game.

And back to the background.

Seeing that Irelia's proficiency was a problem, Akali had no problem but was still suppressed by 30 knives. Kouma didn't know how he won.

Just like he suggested to Faker to transform.

Given Faker's age and skills, he can no longer move freely, dance on the edge of a knife, or use his body movements to lure out weaknesses like he did in the past.

Just look at the status.

If you don't react in time, you will lose your health for free, be pushed out of the last-hitting zone, and be beaten like a muggle. Don't say that Penicillin's attack was heavy, even BDD's attack was ruthless.

Along the way.

Is there anyone who knows more than Kouma?

If you were 18 years old, you would be able to play heroes like Akali, Aatrox, and Irelia, whose numerical mechanisms are above the standard, in just 2 weeks.

But I'm not 18 anymore.

I have played seventy or eighty ranked games with Irelia, which is just enough to get started. It is impossible to expect smooth operations and excellent thinking.

Think of this.

Kouma was in mixed feelings.

In fact, he was somewhat expectant, thinking that if his level was up to par, the opponent would not dare to act pretentiously in the future. Now it seems that challenging the two-time champion with an unskilled hero would be humiliating himself.

Take this one for example.

In the fourth dragon fight, Draven was approached by Akali, but he dared to fight back on the spot. It was because Akali was underdeveloped.

If Akali had a second item, REQER would have killed Draven instantly, and the opponent would have used flash and fled, not daring to stay in position...

His mouth opened and closed.

Kouma thought that after losing two games in a row in the finals, it was meaningless to say anything. In this day and age, I have never seen a BO5 final where a team came back from - to -.

certainly…

It would be fine if there was no precedent, but the key is that the mid and jungle can't open up the situation, the opponent's bottom lane is also very strong, and the big wolf still has a standard development strategy...

Two down.

It was all about fighting, getting into a low to medium disadvantage, and then getting pushed down...

"For the next game, my suggestion is to focus on the bottom lane."

After a long while, Kouma said, "Let's get someone who's easy to raise as a carry." In the pre-match arrangement, there were two lineups to protect the bottom lane and advance.

The reason for this arrangement is that Kouma feels that the mid-to-upper state is not right. In addition, from the Asian Games to now, they have not tried SSG's approach, and they want to leave Chidi with no regrets.

"The one with the incense burner?" Kiin asked.

"Ah."

The Censer was nerfed in version 8.15, but compared to the current version, the Censer's improvements to attack speed and additional magic damage are still there, but the lifesucking is gone, so the AD needs to improve his own tolerance, and he will still be killed instantly in team battles if he is not careful.

This is also the reason why hard support replaces soft support.

If we really want to compete in team battles, a stable control chain is much easier than four protecting one, and SSG is one of the few teams where the AD output accounts for a higher proportion than the mid laner.

For example…

In Top Esports, the proportions of the top, middle and bottom players are roughly maintained at 24, 26 and 22 respectively... As an egg, smlz's task is to cooperate with the team to suppress health and disperse firepower in the endgame. The overall damage distribution is very healthy.

The coach nodded.

Kiin thought, let's just use four to protect one, I'm a tank and I don't stick to the pan anyway, don't expect me to get ahead.

Xiao Huasheng didn't know what his teammates were thinking. He played with his fingers for a while and said, "...I don't have enough training experience, let Dong Bin play instead."

what?
How could this be a good job?

Score was about to hide beautifully when Kouma said, "Well, Dongbin, you have been watching backstage for so long, so you must have some experience."

Subsequently.

Everyone was discussing the content of the previous 15 minutes, and the discussion was haphazard. Only Faker's forehead felt hot, and his Yin Fire was burning more and more vigorously.

The first one to notice something was wrong was Ruler.

When he was leaving the stage, he thought it was a bit strange that Faker was walking with the help of the wall. He turned his head and saw that Xianghe's face was abnormally red. He asked with concern: "Xianghe, are you feeling unwell?"

"No."

Even though his stomach was cramping and his throat was dry and difficult to speak, Faker held on.

Emperor Chi:......

Knowing that Faker is strong and stubborn, Chidi simply called Kouma: "Coach, Xianghe is feeling a little uncomfortable."

hiss~~
He touched his forehead and felt the temperature. Then he looked at Faker with his lips tightly closed and a shaky look. Kouma felt distressed and panicked for a moment.

The team doctor did give some advice.

It would be strange if this person was right to be said to have received too much negative emotions, been under too much pressure, and lived in anxiety for a long time.

question…

In the eyes of 9% of people, Faker is already very successful. If such a person is still anxious, then the lives of others will be uncertain.

嗏

Anxiety has little to do with wealth.

As a professional player, you will feel frustrated when things don't go your way. The stronger you want to be, the stronger your feelings will be, and the more likely you are to have endocrine disorders.

And...playing professionally requires extreme recognition.

From the moment you enter the industry, you are being compared to others. Even if you avoid the Internet, you will rate your own performance.

Faker can't fool himself.

The more the coach ignored the central midfield issue, the more he felt useless and irritated.

"A little bit hot..."

"The game isn't over yet..."

Kouma chatted with his deputy for a while, and they could see the word "tricky" from each other's eyes. He asked Faker, and Faker himself said it was okay. This bastard even started to hum, and he still said it was okay.

"There's no way to pause, just play..."

"Everyone has experienced going into battle while sick, but this time is different. I'm afraid..." I'm afraid that I'll get angry and fall on the stage, or that I'll get anxious and bang my head against the wall. "Then let Wanghu play mid?"

"Stop it, you'll hate us forever." Zefa didn't say who hated who, but Kouma obviously understood - for someone like Faker, 'escaping' is more shameful than losing.

~~~
next door.

After winning the first two games, Abu was already thinking about playing the national anthem.

No skin though.

But with the title of Asian Games champion coach, at least she has some respectful title, instead of some dead sister Bu.

"Come on, it's the last round!" Abu continued to cheer: "Trust me, with the game going like this, as long as we hold on, the opponent will definitely give up!"

"Haoshen, please give some more pressure. I think Faker is a little dizzy." Next to Abu, Maokai successfully shifted the topic to Qin Hao.

"Correct."

Zhu Kai followed up with a boast: "I've already picked Irelia and Akali, why don't you pick Aatrox as the third pick? I remember you said that you, Jayce, can also beat Aatrox."

Qin Hao is eating a banana.

Letme was very emotional when he heard this, and thought to himself: If I were this awesome, would I still be afraid of no one respecting me? If I were this awesome, even Uzi would have to lick my ass and give me a good face!
Letme was immersed in the script of saving the team from danger.

Qin Hao was used to being praised and praised, so he didn't take such flattering remarks to heart. But he was also hypocritical. If he was praised too much, he would get goose bumps, but if he ignored it completely, he would feel it was bland and boring, and he felt bored.

"Just play normally, they have average tacit understanding."

Thinking of the trolls helping to block, Akali was afraid to use her flash. Qin Hao said, "I can see the river. Danzi, control the river crab and continue to look for opportunities to help."

"Well, let's see if they choose red or blue in the next game. If it's red, they don't have a ban position to deal with Xin Zhao, so they can be more aggressive in the early stages."

"...Troll is also good, just let the lane to supplement the control."

A few words were discussed.

A staff member reminded that the South Korean team had changed its starting lineup and put up the score.

Qin Hao and Xie Dan looked at each other, not knowing what was going on...

"If I play against him, I want to play Wei." Eimy smacked his lips, thinking that Score doesn't like counter-jungle, and he can still ensure development after ganking.

"Let's play."

"It's boring if I play alone..." Eimy rolled his eyes twice and suggested, "You play Taliyah, I play Vi, let's do a combo!"

"Tialah's ultimate has been nerfed..." Qin Hao muttered habitually.

"Hey, it's okay."

Xie Dan advised: "My first big move will be to cooperate with you in the middle."

"..."

Arrived on stage.

Yu Wenbo then advised: “…Go ahead and play, Brother Hao, you are the Jinchūriki of Taliyah.” Then he went on to say something else, it’s normal for others not to play after the stats are nerfed, but if the Jinchūriki doesn’t touch it, that would be a bit disheartening for Taliyah players.

"that is!"

The wild king's voice became louder.

"Let's go..." Qin Hao was still hesitating.

Big Wolf silently chanted "fixed point lock" and couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Don't worry about me, just focus on the bottom half."

In the bustle.

Qin Hao didn't notice Faker's expression at all. He was used to looking around before sitting down.

And in the director's camera.

Qin Hao's aura exudes cheerfulness and ease. Just by looking at his face, you can tell that he is very comfortable. In contrast, Faker frowned and supported his forehead with both hands, as if he was enduring something.

Thinking back to the scene in the previous game when the Troll caught the middle and Akali used her own flash to set up the dark scene, the barrage floated:

[Is the pressure so great? ]

【Penicillin, you have no heart.】

【Lao Li~~】

Watch each scene one by one.

Both haters and white fans were venting their emotions. Looking at those sarcastic jokes, some fans thought that some viewers were not worthy of watching Faker's games, and it would be better for them to retire and become a streamer to accompany their "family" wholeheartedly.

Enter BP.

South Korea is blue and China is red.

Just as Abu thought, the opponent no longer dared to gamble, and directly banned Irelia, Akali, and Aatrox in the first three bans.

“They are all powerful heroes in the current version!”

On the other hand, the Chinese team sent Sejuani and Ezreal to the ban as usual, and then discussed banning Tam and releasing Rakan.

Xia Luo is outside.

I thought the opponent would grab Xayah, so I took Varus and Lulu to force the opponent to fight, but I didn't expect the opponent to grab Xin Zhao first. Now, Abu also wanted to try again, so he took Wei and Ornn first.

"The Hidden Flame of the Mountain?"

Guan Zeyuan was wondering if this was a bit too stressful, so he quickly added Varus and Lulu on the left, clearly confirming the strength of the lower half.

"Damn, they robbed our hero."

Focusing on Wei and Taliyah, it is best to start a team fight at mid-range, but an AD is needed to harvest the damage. Originally, we agreed to fight in the bottom lane and look for opportunities to control neutral resources.

"Tian Ye, why did you hit Lulu?"

"Leona, Braum, etc. are all fine, the main thing is the AD."

"I can Kaisa... our mid and jungle are at level 6."

Several combinations flashed through Abu's mind. At this time, Qin Hao suggested: "Help me pick Taliyah first, and let the bottom lane try another move - if they pick Xayah and Rakan, the bottom lane can use Nami and Lucian."

Few people carry the strong attack. The numerical value has been strengthened for two consecutive small versions. If we only look at the tolerance and strength, it is not worse than the classic line combinations such as Lucian, Braum, Draven, and Thresh. The only flaw is that it is easy to be targeted by the jungler...

Tian Ye was still thinking.

Yu Wenbo said: "My Lu Xian is really unique! Let's watch my performance."

Before the group was decided, Yu Wenbo was already providing emotional value.

After his partner said so, Tian Ye felt proud. You know, when he debuted, he felt that he played Nami and Thresh the best. But after Deft left, he had to lead the other ADs, so he didn't have much chance to play Nami...

After all, it is not easy for the hero Nami to feed the AD. The AD needs to fight, grab and consume the blood line by himself. Nami can only provide benefits later.

that's it.

The red team locked Taliyah on the third floor, and then in the second round targeted the top and mid laners that were not out, banning Kennen and Galio, and sealing Xayah and Kaisa on the left to reduce the options in the bottom lane.

"Well, among the remaining ADs, I think Demolition is pretty good. In teamfights, he can catch up with Wei by throwing his ultimate and help lower the health of the back row."

6% of the comments suggested Bomb, 3% suggested Draven, and a small number suggested Kog'Maw, all of which are heroes that JKL is good at playing.

With only 10 seconds left, the red team locked onto Lucian on the fourth floor.

"Lou?"

"What era is this?"

"I get angry just talking about this. It was obvious that the strong player in S7 was the mid laner Lucian, but AD Lucian became a weak player - his arms were not long to begin with, and his damage was cut!"

"It's all Penicillin's fault!!"

"I'm a green fan, I think it's okay to be weird."

“It can only be said that the designer is impersonal.”

"..."

Just bragging and talking nonsense.

On the fourth and fifth floors on the left, add Sion and Karma as needed.

"this…"

"Faker is weak."

"Double shields? 60E is so familiar."

"Xin Zhao and Karma are pretty strong, 2v2 is awesome."

"Choosing meat for the national players? Isn't that a waste?"

"The destiny of the top laner is to be a tank, brother."
