League of Legends: Arrow of Champions

Chapter 753 [774] The great inventor pushes the line
There are two rounds of the group stage. In the first round, the competitions of each group are interspersed together. In the second round, each group has one day, and the qualifying places are directly determined.

In the first round of the group stage, SKY2-1 and STR tied for the first place in the group, and the Yulong team even took the top spot with an unbeaten record of 3-0. The two teams in the death group have achieved such results. In comparison, as the No. [-] seed of the LPL, they were assigned to the group recognized as the easiest to qualify, and the performance of the TL team was a bit disappointing.

After defeating TJ, TL somewhat regained some hearts and confidence, but it was a pity that on the fourth day of the group stage, in the last game of the first round, TL was upset again and lost to ANX in the CIS division.

This game surprised many people. Lin Xuan and the others had already finished the first round of the group stage. They were training at the time and did not watch the game. When they knew the result, it felt like a joke.

The No. [-] seed of LPL lost to the wild card!

In fact, halfway through the match, many people were so angry that they shut down the live broadcast even though they thought TL might come back. There are also some people who say that there is still a chance, losing now is not a bad thing, just learn the lesson in time and stop underestimating the enemy.

In this general environment, speaking for TL or calling for reason will naturally attract more people's scolding, but more firepower is still aimed at the TL team. The main reason is that even true fans rarely meet Stand up and speak, lie flat and let the ridicule go.

The team didn't live up to expectations, and they didn't have the confidence to speak. They could only hope that TL could be woken up by the continuous upsets and adjust their status in time. Otherwise, if the LPL No. [-] seed couldn't get out of the line, it would really be a joke.

The good news is that I don't know how the organizers arranged the schedule. The qualifying match of Group A was scheduled on the last day, so the qualifying match of Group B was placed on the first day of the second round.

October NO.14, Saturday, at [-]:[-] pm, the battle to qualify for Group B kicked off.

In the first game, they lost to BGM and ushered in their first defeat in the group stage. Fortunately, they quickly adjusted their status, double-killed VCR, and directly locked a qualifying spot in advance with four points, and then easily killed NG again. Ended the group stage with a score of 5-1 and secured the first place in the group.

After BGM defeated Ichthyosaurs, they took the initiative to a certain extent, but unfortunately in the subsequent match with VCR, they were double-killed by the opponent, basically declaring that they missed the top eight. The mid laner Next lost his composure and cried after the match. Many people in the audience shouted His name was given as encouragement, but when it was reported by the European media, it became a "sarcasm". Fortunately, the LCS commentator who was on the scene soon publicly clarified.

To be honest, this World Finals was held in China, and the effect and response in all aspects far exceeded everyone's expectations. Whether it was the venue, equipment, service or on-site atmosphere, it changed the attitude of other competition areas to a large extent. The impression of the LPL, and even many viewers themselves, were not expected before. When more than one player was interviewed, whether it was an interview in the LPL competition area or not, he said that the audience was very enthusiastic and liked it very much. I hope there will be more If I have the opportunity, I can come to China to participate in the competition again.

Lin Xuan and the others have already experienced these things to a certain extent. The most intuitive and simple thing is that when going to other countries to participate in the World Championships, in most cases, the venue treatment is not even comparable to the LPL regular season, let alone the annual finals. up.

However, Lin Xuan and the others were a little surprised by the audience's enthusiasm for all competition areas. At the same time, as a member of the LPL, they felt somewhat honored, after all, they did not embarrass the LPL.

Of course, the global finals have just begun, and the next game is more important and more difficult.

The Yulong team defeated the No. 15 seed of the LCK, and the group was the first to qualify. This greatly boosted people's hearts and morale, and further fueled the enthusiasm for watching the game. You can buy it twice.

These have no effect on Lin Xuan and the others. Even the loss to STR did not cause them much trouble. On the contrary, if they keep winning, it will make them feel uneasy.

If STR is that weak, it's not STR anymore.

But having said that, during the replay, Zhang San and Ren Fan still pointed out the shortcomings of the players in the STR game.

Strictly speaking, it is probably not a mistake. The mid-term team battle defeat was due to the fact that SKY's three people caught STR's mid-single swordsman, but An Chengye showed it off, three R and three E, although In the end, he was killed, but it was delayed for too long, so that the rest of STR rushed to fight back and beat SKY to a small group.

The cooperation of this wave of SKY is actually not a big problem. The focus of Zhang San and Ren Fan is not on operation and cooperation, but on vision.

SKY gained the advantage, but did not form vision suppression, especially in the wild area where they grabbed the lane and passed by, there was an excellent top laner around the back eye position, which led to them being counterattacked, otherwise they would lose their skills, STR They also lost a mid laner. If they hadn't been stalked by the sword demon, their chances of winning would still be greater.

"In the mid-term, try to ensure that you have two real eyes on your body! Especially when you have advantages, when you are disadvantaged, and when you are in balance."

In the RANK game, anyone who is a little conscious has the habit of wearing real eyes, but every time he goes out, he must have real eyes on his body, so not many people can do it or are willing to do it. In many people's cognition, there is guaranteed to be a Your own real eyes are enough, there is no need to waste money all the time.

It's all money, four real eyes are equal to one head!

However, it is absolutely necessary to pay attention to eye position. It is a habit that most professional players have developed to keep their true eyes to be prepared. However, it is also unwilling for most professional players to go out and guarantee two true eyes.

Nosuke has two scans. Most of the time, the mid laner will also change the scan. Adding a real eye for each player can guarantee the platoon's vision requirements in most cases. When it comes to vision battles, the more the better, but this is not the case. Not a lot, if you have two real eyes every time you go out, it is very likely that they will be left on all the time, which is equivalent to a wave of soldiers filling up for nothing.

SKY has been emphasizing the problem of vision since the middle and late stages of the Spring Split. At first, it was because Jiang Yingxue switched to support, so there was inevitably a lack of vision control, and everyone needed to help. Later, with Jiang Yingxue's rapid progress, especially Liu Handong's help in Zhang Heng Now, the field of vision control is also improving rapidly, and others only need to do their part well.

This re-emphasis on the issue of vision, on the one hand, is due to the unprecedented intensity of the global finals, and on the other hand, it is also due to the fact that Zhang San and Ren Fan are both committed to building a truly world-class top team-without obvious shortcomings!

Now SKY's operational ability is already at the forefront in the LPL, and its team-playing ability is even more world-class. In addition, there are four players with extremely high ceilings, Lin Xuan, Jiang Yingxue, Liu Handong, and Mu Wanli. The ambitions of the two coaches Nature is expanding accordingly.

Lin Xuan just didn't know if they knew about Jiang Yingxue's retirement. At the beginning, the two of them seemed to have intentionally trained Li Yi more. They thought it was to prepare for Jiang Yingxue's retirement. Looking at this long-term plan now, Jiang Yingxue was the core of the team. Yi's posture didn't seem like he knew about Jiang Yingxue's retirement.

NO.15 At two o'clock in the afternoon, the first shot was fired in the qualifying battle of Group C. STR successfully avenged the ATM and temporarily ranked first in the group with a 3:1 record. Then SKY came on the stage and double-killed the ATM to catch up with the points. At the same time, also It announced that ATM opened high and went low again, and basically bid farewell to the top eight.

After the ATM went down, M16 came on stage, ready to take revenge on SKY.

After the first round of the group stage, there was an episode between the two teams that did not involve members of the SKY team. In the first round, M16 played a small tactic at the first level. He went directly from the lower road to the grass, preparing to ambush here, but he didn't expect that Lin Xuan, Jiang Yingxue and Liu Handong from SKY had already been waiting here, and instead made an ambush, and took down a shot from M16. Blood.

After losing this game, the mid laner of M16 posted two posts in a row on Twitter. The first one was very puzzled, why the SKY players were so smart, they knew they were going to ambush in the bottom lane, and the next day they said Maybe players from other divisions shouldn't play training matches with LPL teams, implying that their own tactics were leaked by the LPL team.

This twitter caused an uproar as soon as it was posted, and a player from last year’s global finals team commented below, saying that they played a training match with a team from the LPL last year, and the coaching staff of the TL team was sitting in that LPL Watched from the team's practice room, and they were in the same group as TL.

After this incident was posted on Weibo by the domestic media, it immediately caused controversy, but none of the three teams responded. Fang Kai refuted it immediately, saying that the M16 had already been used in the finals of the European division. This is a routine, and the BGM support is squatting to death. Don’t you think the SKY coaching staff can’t even watch your championship video?And at the beginning of the game, SKY arranged a scout position and did not see the opposite bot lane. It is not surprising to make such a response.

This incident caused many domestic audiences to plummet in their perception of M16, and many people even made emojis of his painful photos after he lost in the global finals last year, and forwarded them in various jokes.

In this case, the rematch between SKY and M16 has somewhat different flavors and meanings

M16 was very well prepared for this revenge battle. In the opening draw, they were on the blue side, and they unexpectedly selected a hero who had hardly appeared in the World Championship.

great inventor.

Cooperate with the bull head to lay down the road.

The audience is unfamiliar, but whether it is the commentator or SKY, they have already had a certain degree of defense against this hero, because this AD inventor pushes the line flow system, M16 has actually used it in the European finals, and the effect is very good. BGM It was under this system that he lost.
