Full-time: Starting from Ye Xiu vs. Faker

Chapter 465 Respect Every Opponent

"I didn't expect..." Zhang Jiale's face looked a little ugly.

"Sure enough, we are not the only ones who can research powerful tactics." Lu Liang's expression was also solemn.

"Look, this is the real top-level opponent. We are not qualified to look down on him."

Although KT was strong before this game, in Lu Liang's opinion, the initiative of this BO5 was still in their hands.

So when the second game ends and the score is pulled back to the center, it is no longer just a one-to-one score.

In the first BP, Fanhua actually gave KT a difficult problem:
Hanbing, how do you solve this problem?
The first new thing they came up with was to embarrass KT's BP.

So the question is, what kind of answer did KT come up with?

To describe it as a perfect answer sheet may be a bit conservative.

The second round,

Fanhua was on the blue side, trying to grab the commonly used and powerful three-handed plus EZ combination, while KT chose Karma and Ashe at the beginning.

From Fanhua's point of view, this is probably to replace ban with grab, and also use Ashe to increase the strength.

EZ is still good in this version. To some extent, Ashe is a substitute for EZ. Under the premise that Fanhua has already grabbed EZ Jyra, this Ashe is not that difficult to deal with.

But it turned out that they underestimated KT's determination to go all-in on this move.

It wasn't until the last pick, from KT's Counter position, that their true ambition was finally exposed.

Last move, Miss Gunner, double shooters, lock it down!
At that moment, I don’t know how many people stared with their eyes wide open.

Ordinary spectators and fans were shocked that this bold routine could actually appear on the court.

The professionals from the three LPL teams frowned tightly after the initial shock.

"They can also play this trick..."

The Ice Maiden's move was one of the hidden tactics developed by the three LPL teams, including Fanhua, during their preparations for the competition during this period.

In fact, Xingxin was the first to figure out this strategy.

Because there are only two shooters in their team, they are the least lacking in hero proficiency.

After vaguely discovering that this tactic seemed to be useful, I immediately had my two ADs work together to practice a few games, and the effect was excellent.

The advantage of two shooters is extremely simple and crude, that is, the playing line, an extremely strong playing line.

Having long arms is the simplest and clearest advantage at any time.

And in this version, coincidentally, the line play is really important.

Especially for these snowball masters, if they can accumulate a small advantage in the early stage, then in the next few dozen minutes, no matter how long it drags on, they will be able to firmly keep the initiative in their hands.

After discovering the strength of this strategy, it was quickly spread to all participating teams in the LPL through training matches.

Among them, the three LPL entities that are still in existence are all quite amazed by this gameplay.

Especially Fanhua and Xingxin, these two strong laning teams, and they both have the capital to play the double shooter tactic in the bottom lane.

One of them already has two rotating ADs, and the other has the strongest bottom lane combination in the entire league. Both of them will be able to quickly develop the strength of this routine.

Especially the flowers.

As the other two opponents are not that strong, they may be the first team to reveal this trump card in the quarterfinals.

And that was exactly the case. In the first game, Fanhua threw a smoke bomb, and combined with KT's not very rational choice of Spider, using a single Ashe and Jyra, it achieved certain effects on the laning end.

Although they didn't completely suppress Miss Fortune, they had already achieved some results without EZ, allowing them to successfully get EZ in the second game.

But KT's response was exactly what they expected, the worst-case scenario. Not only did the opponent figure out this strategy, they also used it! And they dared to choose it!
This is going to be difficult...

At the beginning of the second game, the situation on both sides seemed to have undergone a strange reversal.

Fanhua is in the late game and needs a combination to slow down the tempo. As long as they can drag the game to the late stage, they will be able to regain the initiative little by little.

On the contrary, KT's early stage rhythm was full, and the suppression power was extremely strong. Once the offensive was launched, it was like an endless tide.

Attack and defense were switched at this moment.

So the question is, what about KT's offensive ability?

It turns out that they are far better than they are at defending.

Especially when Peanut is full of anger.

This is Peanut at his peak. His casting in the last game was a bit muddled, but in this game, after learning his lesson, he immediately let the world know why he is the undisputed No. 1 jungler in LCK.

At the beginning, after clearing the upper zone, when everyone thought he was going to clear the lower zone, his Lee Sin wandered around the middle lane and then returned to the upper lane.

When trying to kill the river crab in the top lane, I happened to catch Olaf who had just harassed the middle lane and wanted to catch him.

At that time, Zhao Yang in the top lane was being suppressed quite hard. Smeb, who got Rambo, vented all his anger from the previous game in the laning phase and almost pressed Zhao Yang under the tower.

With such a good opportunity, there was no way Olaf would not come to help.

But he never expected that Peanut would stay in the top lane in order to counter-camp even when the first group of jungle enemies were only half cleared.

The result was that Olaf failed to capture anyone, and instead, Zhao Yang's Ekko, who was cooperating with him, was caught and died on the spot, losing the first blood.

In the bottom lane, the two IMPs who got the Ashe and the Lady Gnas, with the huge advantage of their hero's laning ability, were finally able to pin Zhang Jiale and the other two firmly under the tower, unable to get out, and they pressed the enemy hard.

Prosperity was forced to switch to a complete defensive position.

And this is the most familiar situation for KT after playing the entire summer season in LCK.

They're going to start snowballing.

The advantage of the bottom lane became bigger and bigger, especially when Peanut found an opportunity, took advantage of a flanking position, and instantly evaporated the bottom lane group of Fanhua with a double TP package. During the laning phase, Fanhua completely lost the initiative.

Especially when KT's two shooters reached level 6, Ashe hit with a crystal arrow, and Miss Fortune immediately used her ultimate to sweep, basically Fanhua had to take her hands off the keyboard.

During this period, Fanhua did fight back. In the first game, Xiye, who had bullied the opponent into becoming confident, even got a solo kill after being watched by the mid laner for two waves. Huasheng also lost a head in the wild area because of his reckless advance.

But the overall situation is still being steadily rolled down by KT.

Thirty knives difference in the bottom lane, the loss of the first blood tower...

The situation got worse bit by bit.

Even though the flowers have been snowballing for so long, only a few of them have experienced the feeling of being snowballed by others.

Before this, only those two teams had the opportunity to achieve such results.

Fanhua can only delay the game to the late stage, wait for Viktor to develop, and wait for the lineup to finally reach its strong period.

But before waiting for all these, they first waited for KT to go to the high ground with a 10,000 economic gap.

When the second game ended, all the luck and guesswork no longer mattered.

No hidden tricks, no dirty moves, all the cards are revealed.

This time, both sides are completely on the same starting line in terms of strength, mentality, tactical reserves and many other aspects.

It's time to play BO3.
