I'm the chef in T1. The fatter Li Ge is, the stronger I am.

Chapter 125: An unpopular hero that even professional players don’t know about. Can this thing also be used as a jungler?
In the SKT lounge.

Kkoma, who was watching the entire game from the perspective of his own players, was walking back and forth in the room.

Everyone sat on the sofa to recover their energy.

It takes about three or four minutes.

Kkoma then spoke.

"We rarely encounter this kind of situation. After all, we lack experience in this kind of extreme jungle swap and quick push tactics."

"Fortunately, this lineup can only play a role in the mid-to-late game. It was also a fluke that we won the game."

very beginning.

kkoma's idea is simple.

The first game was played normally to test whether ROX had any tactical reserves.

BO5 is like playing Landlord.

Who will start with a royal bomb?
of course.

It doesn't matter whether the first game is won or lost.

Kkoma will start throwing bombs directly in the second game.

"We have to let Xiaoyu take the jungler who is strong in the early stage, otherwise it will be too much of a loss for us to exchange jungle areas."

Speaking of it.

kkoma pulled over the tactics board in the room.

See this.

Everyone immediately gathered around.

"Haocheng, can you still use Crocodile in the top lane? If not, change to another hero. You made too many mistakes in the first game, especially when you took the second tower in the bottom lane."

When Kkoma gets into the right state, he unconsciously exudes the majestic aura that only belongs to a coach.

Different from his usual timid appearance.

Duke looked at kkoma seriously and said in a serious tone: "I won't make the same mistake again in the next game! 1V1, I will beat him!"

These words were like an oath.

But after listening to it, kkoma did not respond. He turned around and continued, "Same to you, Sang Hyuk. If you don't want to play a support hero, then use it to fight in the opposite lane. Don't use a support hero to force a fight in the opposite lane."

"." Faker fell silent, and after a few seconds he replied: "I can use Leblanc, I can play both in the laning phase and as a support."

"Row!"

kkoma continued to ask the other three.

After getting the correct answer.

The preliminary lineup for the second game has been written on the tactical board.

Just right.

The staff's announcement sounded at the door.

Halftime is over!

Return to the arena.

Not long after.

The BP interface for the second game has been displayed on the big screen.

As the loser, ROX chose to switch sides and move to the red side.

The six ban positions are very different from the last game!

Apparently, during this ten-minute break, not only SKT was discussing countermeasures, but ROX also thought about it!
SKT banned on the blue side: Nidalee, Elise, and Ekko.

Red team ROX banned: Time, Poppy, Brand.

As BP ends.

SKT picked the first floor almost instantly and snatched Fiora away.

"Oh! Duke's Fiora!" Jeon Yong-jun said, then asked uncertainly, "Should it be the top laner?"

"Uh" Score scratched his head: "It's hard to say, if it's Emolove, it's not impossible to play Jungle Fiora."

The advantages and disadvantages of Fiora as a jungler are very obvious.

Advantages: Invincible in SOLO, especially after level 6, the Q skill can greatly reduce the travel time by crossing the wall.

Disadvantages: No skills with AOE damage, resulting in very slow jungle clearing efficiency, no skills to retain people and hard control, and almost no ganking ability.

but.
These shortcomings are hardly a problem for Emolove.

While the commentators were still thinking.

ROX has made its decision.

The first floor locked onto the relatively rare Irelia, while the second floor pulled out the Rat.

Pray's rats need no introduction.

On the road.

Knife girl!
This is not a common choice!

Last year's World Championship was still watchable, but after being nerfed again, Irelia has been nowhere to be seen in the regular seasons in various regions this year and even in the current World Championship.

And smeb used Irelia in this final.

This is also the first time that Irelia appears in this World Championship!
"A trump card?"

"Although I don't know much about the top lane, Irelia is still too weak. Smeb's Irelia top lane is not a good choice."

"It may also be that there are not many options in the top lane hero pool. Compared to heroes like Riven who are obviously double-edged swords, Irelia cannot withstand pressure if she is at a disadvantage in the lane."

score guessed.

Jeon Yong-jun's attention was all on the junglers of both teams.

It's SKT's turn to select players.

After watching so many games.

Everyone can also find some patterns.

When on the blue side, SKT rarely chooses the jungler very late, and the jungler is basically one of the first three choices.

Seeing an extremely unfamiliar avatar suddenly appear on the second floor of SKT, even score, who is also a professional player, couldn't help but wonder and asked in shock: "Sword Demon?"

"What are the Sword Demon's skills?"

Jeon Yong-jun thought for a long time, and finally only remembered that the passive ability of the Sword Demon seemed to be able to resurrect on the spot.

This was the slogan promoted when League of Legends launched this new hero.

Just like when Ekko joined, Riot Games claimed that "this hero can reverse time and go back to the past"!
"The W skill can switch attributes, and every third basic attack can restore health or cause additional damage."

"Q skill is displacement, E skill can slow down the enemy, and the ultimate skill increases attack speed and attack distance."

Score recalled for a while and quickly remembered the skills of the Sword Demon.

For professional players.

Basically, no matter how unpopular a hero is, they all know what the hero's four skills can do.

but.
That's all.

Wang Yu had previously used other position heroes such as Poppy, Brand and even Janna in the game.

These heroes are at least very common in Rank, but Sword Demon is hard to see even in Rank!

It's amazing that score can remember the effects of the four skills of the Sword Demon.

On the other hand, let’s look at ROX.

The team's voice was in chaos.

"Oh, what are the skills of Sword Demon?" Pray was completely confused. When he saw Sword Demon's avatar, he even wondered, "There is such a hero in League of Legends?"

"It's pretty rubbish. Only the Q skill has some control, and it's easily interrupted." Smeb, who is familiar with top lane heroes, briefly explained the effects of each of Aatrox's skills to his teammates.

After listening to smeb's introduction.

Peanut immediately showed a confused expression on his face: "The play style of this hero is the same as Olaf, both need to control health and deal damage, so why doesn't Yuge play Olaf?"

"Who knows, maybe that guy thinks the Sword Demon is more powerful than Olaf."

smeb curled his lips.

He still has a say in the strength of the top lane heroes.

Olaf can definitely kill trash like the Aatrox in the jungle easily.

"Clockwork? Oh! It's changed! Faker took out Leblanc!!!" Jeon Yong-jun, who was fooled by a feint, was not angry at all, and even roared excitedly: "Faker's signature hero Leblanc!"

however.

Jeon Yong-jun didn’t have to wait long for his excitement.

It's ROX's turn to select players.

On the third floor, knock down the Void Prophet, this scabby dog.

The fourth floor took out Thresh, obviously wanting to cooperate with Void Prophet.

"Oh my! ROX respects Faker too much, doesn't it?" Jeon Yongjun's face was suddenly filled with distress.

As an explanation.

He wants to see exciting games.

But ROX's two backup choices almost directly killed LeBron's chances of performing.

"There's nothing we can do, he's Faker." Score sighed.

Although this sounds strange.

but.
person's name.

The shadow of the tree!
Sometimes, for some players or even the entire team, just hearing the ID of the player they are facing can cause a sense of fear.

This is not an exaggeration!

"What about Faker?" Score was about to say something.

Jeon Yong-jun suddenly exclaimed: "Hey hey hey! What does Syndra mean?! Did SKT move Leblanc to the bottom lane?!" "Then in this case, Syndra will still not have any pressure against Void Prophet in the middle lane, while Thresh in the bottom lane will be counted by Leblanc!"

"Besides, Wolf likes to roam. After getting Leblanc, he cooperates with Aatrox to act together. He has both control and burst!"

Speaking of it.

Jeon Yong-jun suddenly clapped his hands and said, using the words he learned from Wang Yu, "All correct! All correct!"

at this time.

SKT's fifth floor hesitated for a long time and finally decided that Ezreal would be the ADC.

Just compared with this spiritual Syndra.

The appearance of EZ did not seem to cause much ups and downs.

"Shit! What's up with Syndra? Is Leblanc going to the bottom lane? They are really fucking disgusting!"

"We've been tricked! We have no problem with the bottom lane, but our support speed is definitely not as fast as this Ahri!"

"It's okay. I won't give Faker any chances in the middle lane. If Ahri roams too many times, she will only waste her time."

Everyone was talking.

From the complaints at the beginning to the respective explanations later.

The purpose is to prevent their young player Peanut from having too much psychological pressure.

The count position on the fifth floor was left to the jungler by nofe.

And we have to continue playing after this game is over.

Peanut's mentality is very important!
"Wanghu, what kind of jungler do you want to play?" nofe asked softly, trying to use a gentle tone so that peanut would not feel the invisible pressure.

however.

There are only a few regular jungle heroes that can be used at present.

Peanut naturally tried to follow Wang Yu's route.

But the result was fruitless. Until the finals began, he still couldn't develop any unconventional jungle skills.

Listening to the countdown in the headphones.

Peanut took a deep breath and said with determination: "Brother, help me get the blind monk!"

This way.

The lineups for both teams have been finalized.

Blue side SKT:

Top lane - Sword Princess
Jungle - Sword Demon
Mid laner - Syndra

ADC——EZ
Support - Leblanc
Red side ROX:

Top lane - Irelia

Jungler - Lee Sin
Mid - Void Prophet
ADC - Mouse
Support - Thresh
After seeing the lineups of both sides clearly.

Nofe laughed, which was rare for him. "Beautiful! Wanghu, you picked the Lee Sin so well. Why didn't I think of it?"

"?"

Peanut looked at his coach with some doubt.

He doesn't quite understand.

I picked Lee Sin because I had no choice.

But to the coach it seemed otherwise.

"They don't have a front line, no means to start a team fight, and no control. In a 5v5 team fight, we can easily win by pulling and pulling. Wanghu, you just need to be careful of the Sword Demon in this game, prioritize your own development, and then help your teammates gain an advantage."

nofe spoke quickly.

After all, there is only one minute left after the lineup is confirmed.

When the time is up and the loading screen appears, the coach must leave the soundproof room.

Coaches have a much better understanding of hero strength than players.

So even if you encounter unpopular heroes in the game.

Even nofe, who is considered to be at the lowest level in the region, knew how to limit SKT after taking a look at the lineup.

"SKT may enter our jungle in the early stage. You can handle the specific situation on your own. Even if we fight at level 1, no one can die."

After giving the final instructions.

Nofe was asked to leave the soundproof room by the referee.

As soon as I stepped out of the soundproof room.

next second.

The calmness on nofe's face disappeared in an instant, replaced by an extremely solemn expression.

It's fine to just say those words to the contestants.

There is not much difference in the lineups of the two sides.

True!

SKT doesn’t really have any means of initiating a team fight, but their counterattack capabilities are quite strong!
Shaking hands with coach kkoma.

Nofe stood at the entrance of the tunnel and looked back at the ROX player seat: "Wanghu! Come on!"

In the soundproof room.

Peanut coughed twice, adjusted his sitting position and waited for the game to begin.

He kept in mind the coach's instructions before he left.

But the team commander obviously had different ideas.

GorillA said: "It's not that we can't fight at level 1. The coach only said that no one can die, but he didn't say that we can't kill anyone."

"Wanghu, you still need to put some pressure on the Sword Demon. This hero is very terrifying once he develops!" Smeb reminded.

"I can learn Q at level 1 to invade the opponent's jungle and help you see what route the opponent's jungler is taking."

Almost the moment the lineup was chosen.

Pray's immense experience in the game told him how to play this game.

Only playing in the wild is comfortable.

He only has a chance to complete the kill if he is in the bottom lane!

Don’t think that Syndra and Leblanc, two AP assassins, can easily target ADCs like Twitch who have no displacement.

Once the mice develop.

Use a big move.

Syndra and Leblanc may not even survive to charge into Rat's face.

Development in the bottom lane is crucial.

But whether the jungler can gain an advantage in the early stage is more crucial!
The loading screen ends.

Players from both teams entered Summoner's Rift.

With the blue side advantage.

SKT quickly deployed their lineup.

A line of sky standing.

To prevent mice from finding angles to invade wild areas for vision.

The positions of the crowd were also very risky.

at this time.

The director has already locked the camera on the Sword Demon.

The appearance of this unpopular hero forced all the watching players to temporarily make up for its skill mechanism.

All in all.

It’s not impossible to play as a jungler.

But compared with normal junglers, they are obviously not on the same level!
"Emolove chose to start from the upper half, which was a mirror image of peanut!"

"But in terms of efficiency, peanut is nearly three seconds faster than Emolove. This is the benefit of having teammates to help!"

Finished killing three groups of wild monsters.

Lee Sin started with QQ and quickly went to the F4 camp to start brushing.

However, because of the single BUFF, the Sword Demon was a step slower, now he walked directly to the river and came to the dragon pit.

Two seconds later.

With a Q skill, the Sword Demon flew directly over the wall and entered the upper jungle area of ​​​​ROX.

"Emolove, do you want to squat peanut? This position!"

The director has already switched the perspective to the red side.

While pulling F4, Lee Sin walked towards the red buff, and did not notice that the Aatrox had come to his jungle area.

Finished brushing F4.

Lee Sin used his W skill on himself and continued to refresh the red buff.

The same pulling method is used to save lost blood.

Look at the blind monk who is about to pull the red buff into the bush.

Many of the audience who couldn't hold their breath started screaming and exclaiming.

however.

When Lee Sin walked into the bushes, the imagined figure of the Sword Demon did not appear!

Until then.

The director then switched the perspective to a God's perspective.

"What! Why did Emolove go to the top lane?"
