LOL: Seventeen, No. 1 in the World

Chapter 187 The Level of the Quarterfinals
LZ player seat.

Coach: "Khan, Jayce is defeated. What do you say? Should we pick a confident hero first to put some pressure on them?"

Khan shook his head, "No need, I have an absolute advantage in the top lane, he can't beat me! I just hope there's no problem with the bottom lane!"

Khan is strong and confident. Moreover, he was in WE A team at that time and played in many LSPL games. As the second team of WE, he naturally knew Theshy.

The two have also played in training matches. Of course, WE A is just a sparring partner, and Theshy is only given a chance to try by the WE team occasionally.

Coach: "Xayah, she's more in line with the current version, and she also has the ability to save her life."

LZ team chooses Xia on the first floor!

Compared to LPL during this period, coaches in LCK have much more power. Except for the absolute core of the team, you have to play whatever others tell you to play.

There's no such thing as Lucian playing as a jungler.

When Mafa saw this choice, the expression on his face was obviously relaxed. When Xia was chosen, it seemed that LZ's bottom lane, at least the coach was still afraid of Chen You.

Otherwise, when Tristana, Twitch, and Kog'Maw are all outside, and Rakan is already in the ban position, how could Xayah be chosen?

"Yes!" Mafa walked behind Chen You and pressed his shoulders as usual, "Come out."

Theshy has already called out the bottom lane hero, and when he heard Chen You say "Tricky", he immediately locked onto it!
Ning Wang: "Then I will be a pig! Chen You wants to be the C in this round, I will start the team fight, and I will be done with it if I can hold on."

After a season of getting along, everyone knows each other quite well.

There are only a few junglers in this version, and LZ directly took down Jarvan. Then, LZ’s third pick surprised everyone in IG: Thresh!
When this hero appeared, the whole audience exclaimed.

Thresh's appearance now is completely against the version, but LZ still chose him.

In the commentary box.

Wawa: "Thresh, LZ actually picked such an offensive lineup, wow, this is LZ's style!"

Miller: "LZ looks like this is the first game. They don't give IG a chance to breathe and play fast break!"

Wawa: "Xayah, Jarvan, and Thresh are all very terrifying in the early to mid game! I think IG should block Taliyah in the second round. Otherwise, with the combination of fast attack and Taliyah's speed increase, IG will be under great pressure in the early game!"

Miller: "IG hasn't picked the third floor yet, so I think it's not impossible to just grab Taliyah."

Ziti said slowly, "Song Yijin's Taliyah can kill people in one second. He is playing it as Leblanc. It's not impossible to use it! The key is whether the players are willing to choose it. Their thoughts are the most important."

His posture and slow speech seemed to slow down the pace of the game.

In fact, it also inadvertently exposed the current status of LPL coaches, which is really not very strong.

But compared with previous years, it has improved a lot.

A famous professional player once said that coaches used to order takeout.

IG did not choose Taliyah in the third pick, but chose Gem!
Zzitai: "It doesn't matter if we didn't pick Taliyah, just do it, it's not a big deal, IG has plenty of ban slots."

Immediately afterwards, IG took down Taliyah and Gragas.

LZ removed Theshy's Gnar and Rambo. Zzitai continued to speak slowly, "I saw many viewers asking why IG wanted to get Gragas. Let me explain to you that the current Jarvan IV is actually a top-jungle swing position. If LZ gets Gragas, IG's C position will be greatly restricted."

Wawa: "As expected of a professional player, the top laner of Prince was indeed popular for a while before, but in the world championship, few teams would use him as the top laner, which I didn't consider."

Miller: "Enchantress, Rookie still chooses the Deceiver that he is very confident in!"

Zzitai: "No problem. I think Rookie's laning phase is the strongest. It is more important to play to his strengths than to choose the lineup! Khan is a great top laner. He is still very strong. IG gave Theshy a counter position, which is perfect!"

Miller: "Indeed! Syndra! BDD, what a confident choice. If Rookie wants to play in the lane, then he will also play in the lane! The mid lane in this game will be quite intense."

There was an uproar at the scene. LZ's BP was different from the choices of many teams in the regular season.

But, LZ immediately gave the audience a bigger surprise: on the fifth floor, top lane, Weapon Master!

An extremely unpopular hero on the field.

At this point, almost all the audience lost their composure.

Even LPL's RNG and WE are feeling dizzy. Most of the time, the top laners of these two teams are playing with Cho'Gate or Maokai. Occasionally, they choose Gnar or Rumble, which feels a bit uncomfortable.

The OP directly took out a weapon master that he had never seen before.

The players of both teams couldn't help but feel fortunate that it was IG, and IG's top laner was also very offensive.

Theshy should be able to compete with Khan.

Wawa: "Master of Weapons, LZ, we are in the quarterfinals, can we still play this kind of thing?"

Miller: "For LPL, this hero is indeed a great test, because we rarely encounter him in normal times!"

Zizhi frowned slightly, but still said slowly, "Weapon, are you so confident? But this hero is really good. The other heroes of LZ all play a fast-paced game in the early and mid-game, and Weapon can make up for the late-game ability. The most important thing is that Weapon's counterattack storm is too threatening to ADC! But it doesn't matter. IG still has a lot of heroes to choose from, such as Crocodile and Fiora. If it doesn't work, just be a bit timid and try a Kidney or something like that."

【Balance exists between all things! 】

Stance: "Violent Heart, Kennen? Really good! Kennen is really good!"

No one expected that IG would actually give LPL a hero that they had never even thought of.

Kennen’s appearances in LPL are also too few!
Instinctively, no one considered this kind of hero.

Wawa: "Kennen, if Shy is highly skilled, there will be no problem in laning, and his role in teamfights is much more useful than weapons."

Miller: "I'm wondering, when IG picked Gem when Minotaur, Morgana, and Janna were all out, did they already decide to pick Kennen?"

Zzitai: "It's hard to say. It's very likely that Youshen made the BP on IG's side. In fact, I discovered during our match with IG that Youshen is a monster. His understanding of the game seems to be way ahead of other teams. This feeling is very strange, and I can't explain it, but it's like this. When facing Youshen, it doesn't feel like facing a normal newcomer at all."

Wawa: "Yes, maybe this is a genius! LPL needs newcomers like this."

Miller: "Come on! Kennen has strengthened IG's mid-term combat capability and late-term teamfighting capability. I think IG's BP in this game is at least not at a disadvantage."

Zzitai: "This is the level of the quarterfinals! It is completely different from the BP in the group stage."
