Professional anchor, part-time occupation

The competition venue was still crowded with people, and it was extremely lively.

Even if it was just a group match, it still aroused the enthusiasm of countless spectators.

Several EDG players returned to the backstage lounge. They played behind and could rest for a while.

time flies.

After watching a few games backstage, it was finally EDG's turn to play.

Abu took a deep breath: "It's best to win. If you can't win, you don't need to have a psychological burden. You can qualify."

There are two qualifying places in the group stage, and Abramovich does not insist that EDG can get the first place.

Even when he was in a group with SKT, what Abramovich thought in his heart was to fight for the second place.

As for number one, he basically had no idea.

It's not that Abu really thinks that SKT is much better than EDG, but a kind of inertial thinking.

Even if EDG won against SKT at MSI, this kind of inertial thinking cannot be changed in a short while.

"It's not like..." Ye Zi laughed and said, "I think the pressure should be on their side."

"Oh?" Abu asked curiously, "How do you say it?"

Yates explained: "SKT lost in the MSI, and now they must get back.

In the eyes of the outside world, our strength is definitely not as good as SKT.

In this way, we don’t have any pressure whether we win or lose, but SKT is different..."

Yeates didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present already understood what he meant.

EDG lost to the world champion SKT, no shame, but if SKT loses to EDG, it will be a big shame.

After being explained by Yates, everyone felt a lot more relaxed.

Abu couldn't help but said: "Yezi, you have a lot of unreasonable reasoning."

God is so unreasonable...Is this called dialectical thinking, okay?

Yezi secretly complained.

Immediately, the whole EDG team walked out of the lounge and went to the arena.

……

On the other side, SKT backstage lounge.

As Yates predicted, the atmosphere within the SKT team was not easy.

Others may underestimate EDG, but SKT, which lost through msi, will not be like this.

On the contrary, the whole team attaches great importance to this game.

Kkoma: "Didn't you always want to take revenge? This time is an opportunity, defeating them will give you a clean slate."

Bang: "I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Judging from yesterday's game, they seem to be much stronger."

The crowd fell silent.

They watched the game yesterday, and Delevingne was really scary, even if they watched it, they felt a little panicked.

If they were beaten as badly as AHQ...

That kind of scene is scary just thinking about it.

Although the probability of such a thing happening is very low, but not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, several team members are still afraid from the bottom of their hearts.

Faker suggested: "Ban his Draven."

Everyone quickly agreed and agreed to ban Delevingne.

Ok?
Seeing this, kkoma couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect the team members to be so afraid of Yates' Draven.

In his opinion, Delevingne can indeed play, but the conditions for playing are also very harsh.

It is not as simple as it seems to want to play the effect, but the team members are all scared to death.

Realizing this, Kkoma's eyes flickered slightly. He originally wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Let's go, let's start."

……

As soon as the line of sight was turned, the players on both sides were already in place, debugging the equipment.

Commentary seat.

Remember and Guan Zeyuan when explaining today.

At this moment, the two of them were standing on the stage in suits and leather shoes, with smiles on their faces.

"Hi everyone, welcome to the group stage match between EDG and SKT. I am Zeyuan, the commentator for this match."

"I remember."

"Today's game must have been expected for a long time. EDG and SKT have a lot of history. Now that they meet, I believe it will be a wonderful game."

"Yesterday, EDG defeated the AHQ team in a devastating manner. There is no problem with the players' status. I don't know if EDG can continue yesterday's record today and win SKT in one go."

I remember saying: "If EDG can win the point of SKT, I think EDG should be able to qualify.

But it's hard to say, SKT is a triple crown team after all, and its strength is definitely not comparable to that of AHQ. "

"The top laner of EDG has been replaced by Zoom." Guan Zeyuan: "I don't know if the rookie Zoom can withstand the pressure against Huni."

Looking at EDG's lineup, Guan Zeyuan couldn't help shaking his head secretly.

In his opinion, the ability of a newcomer like Zoom to play in the World Championship is very limited, and it might be better to let mouse play.

Remember: "I think we have to face this game as a challenger. Winning or losing is not important, the important thing is to have something to gain."

The commentator was very witty. The outcome of this round was unpredictable. In order to prevent the fans from going crazy when EDG lost the game, the commentator kept vaccinating the audience on stage.

After some guidance, the game finally started.

On the screen, the screen is transformed into a game interface.

"coming!"

I remember that Guan Zeyuan was excited, not only the audience, but the two were also looking forward to this game.

In the audience, seeing the BP interface appear, the audience reacted even more strongly.

"finally come!"

"The commentary is too capable of BB, it should have started long ago."

"Come on, EDG! We must win."

"It's a bit difficult. SKT is not a leftover team like AHQ."

"The MSI can win and it can win now."

In the live broadcast room, the audience began to send barrages one after another, and LPL fans naturally supported EDG more.

Of course, the audience is extremely real.

They only supported EDG with their mouths, and when they bet in the live broadcast room, they still beat SKT to win more.

At this time, another change appeared on the screen, Guan Zeyuan: "SKT took the initiative to choose the red side, so EDG is still the blue side.

The blue team bans first, and EDG takes the initiative to ban Galio. "

"SKT backhanded Kalista and Draven. It seems that SKT is still afraid of God Z's hero pool."

Remember: "I don't know if SKT will ban Xiaopao again, Xiaopao is also God Z's signature hero.

But if the small cannon is banned, then all the heroes of other EDG players will be released. "

Guan Zeyuan: "I feel that it is enough to ban these two heroes. Bang's hero pool is also very deep. Xiaopao is not a particularly critical point. There is no need..."

Halfway through the conversation, EDG banned Ryze and Wine Barrel with two or three hands.

No problem, these two heroes are the signature heroes of SKT Nakano. What made Guan Zeyuan speechless was not this, but the fact that SKT actually banned Xiaopao in the third hand.

"It's not necessary." Guan Zeyuan murmured: "Bang can go grab the small cannon, and there are many heroes who can fight the small cannon. It's unscientific to ban the small cannon."

"puff!"

When Guan Zeyuan said the word science, the audience couldn't help laughing out loud.

science?You also deserve to mention science?
"Colonel Guan did his best. Originally, SKT didn't want to ban Xiaopao. After the colonel said Xiaopao, he went to jail."

The audience kept teasing on the barrage, and the BP continued.

With Xiaopao being banned, the first three bans of both sides have been completed.

The top three bans of EDG are: Galio, Ryze and Wine Barrel.

The top three bans of SKT are: Calista, Delevingne and Xiaopao.

"Three ban AD?"

In the EDG team, seeing SKT targeting him like this, Yezi also had a look of helplessness in his eyes.

To be honest, there are not many AD players who can play first. Playing SKT is different from playing AHQ.

Against AHQ, Yezi is confident that he can take heroes casually, and the opponent can't beat him, but he can't be too casual against SKT.

If you go first, it is easy to be opposite Conte.

"Let's take Luo first."

EDG has no choice. In this round, Xia Luo is outside, so they can only choose one of Xia Luo.

As for the two heroes of Xialuo, Luo has a higher priority, and EDG is also better at playing the team-starting system with Luo as the core.

After Luo was locked, SKT quickly locked Xia + Fengnv.

"The combination of SKT's bottom lane is a bit strong." Guan Zeyuan: "Fengnv is now the first sister of the incense burner. He can increase the attack power of a big sword with a shield. After the incense burner comes out, the gain to AD is quite terrifying."

Remember: "EDG is not very good at picking AD. If you choose a hero like Mouse and Big Mouth, then the early laning will be too weak."

"BP was tricked."

At this time, Nofe also found something was wrong.

Originally, Xialuo should occupy a ban position of SKT, but now SKT has released both Xialuo, and instead took the initiative.

After all, if Xia Luo is released, there is a high probability that they will choose Luo.

As for the hero Luo, the laning strength is relatively average, and taking Luo means losing the initiative in the bottom lane.

This trick may not have obvious effects on other teams, but it is somewhat fatal to EDG.

After all, EDG is a team with the bot lane as the core. If EDG is not allowed to play laning in the bot lane, EDG's strength and rhythm will be limited.

After thinking about everything, Nofe couldn't find a good solution. No matter what kind of AD he takes, the combination of Fengnv + Xia is not very good, unless he chooses a policewoman.

But in this version, the error tolerance rate of choosing a female policeman is too low, especially in the mid-term, the female policeman has no combat ability. Even if Luo leads a good team, it will not be able to achieve the desired effect of EDG.

"It's not easy."

It was EDG's turn to choose a hero, and Nofe couldn't help being stumped.

Yates: "I can take the second round."

"Huh? Round two?"

After Yates finished speaking, everyone present was shocked.

Now the opponent has already banned three ADs. If Yezi gets an AD in the second round, it is hard to say that SKT will ban two more ADs.

At that time, there will be fewer ADs available.

Nofe asked: "What do you want to use?"

Yates smiled slightly, and slowly said a hero's name: "Sivir."

Nofe's eyes lit up, and there was a feeling of enlightenment.

Sivir AD is one of EDG's reserve lineups. It is not a killer, but it is a lineup with a very high minimum and fault tolerance.

Now, it happens to come in handy.

"It's impossible for them to think of this AD."

The corners of Nofe's mouth turned upward.

This time, kkoma might have miscalculated.

EDG's second and third hands lock-the prince and the clockwork monster.

"Huh?" Guan Zeyuan was taken aback: "EDG hasn't released AD yet? AD will be banned in the second round."

I remember being puzzled, completely unable to figure out what EDG was thinking.

"Prince and Clockwork are also good. This combination is very effective in the game, and it is also a hero commonly used by SKT Nakano. It is equivalent to replacing ban with grabbing."

"But that's still the problem, what about AD? Is EDG going to stock AD?"

In front of the screen, the audience was also a little confused.

EDG has always been the bot lane as the core of BP, but today...

"What are you doing?"

"You don't want to win, do you?"

"Can't see it? EDG's bottom lane is restricted by SKT, and there is no way to play around the bottom lane."

"SKT is really cowardly, and has the ability to release the heroes of God Z."

In the live broadcast room, the audience began to send barrage.

As for SKT, kkoma was also surprised to see EDG's BP: "Want to choose EZ?"

Bang nodded: "Probably want to mix development..."

"Then ban his EZ too." kkoma said decisively: "As long as their bottom lane is blocked, we can handle other lanes."

Everyone nodded. Now everyone in EDG's bottom lane has reached a consensus. As for the other lanes... they didn't leave a deep impression on them.

After some discussions within the team, SKT's third-hand hero was finally determined-Crag Sparrow.

At this point, the first round of BP between the two sides is over.

EDG: Luo, Prince, Clockwork Demon.

SKT: Fengnv, Xia, Rock Sparrow.

"If you look at the first three selections, I think EDG's lineup will be more solid." Guan Zeyuan looked at the screen: "But SKT should make up two front rows in the future. If this is the case, the lineups on both sides will be hard to say."

Remember: "It's mainly AD. If SKT bans two more ADs, what other ADs can be used?"

This question is also a question for everyone.

At this time, the second round of BP begins.

Compared with the first round, the second round of BP was much faster.

As predicted by the commentator, SKT banned the AD position again in the second round.

EZ, Verus!

Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly gasped.

Five ban AD!

"My God! SKT directly banned five ADs!" Guan Zeyuan: "This doesn't allow God Z to play the game."

I remember thinking: "Is it really necessary to take the mouse/Big Mouth?"

"Han Bing?" Guan Zeyuan: "I think Han Bing is okay for laning, but if Han Bing + Luo, the damage is too scraping."

"Lucian?"

"Lu Xian didn't have a late stage, and the wind girl came out of the incense burner, and Lucian couldn't beat him. The strong period lasted for ten minutes, and he wasn't that strong. If the opponent didn't fight, EDG had nothing to do."

The commentator thought about several heroes in a row, but they were all passed by themselves.

During this period, EDGban dropped SKT's Jayce and Gnar.

Immediately, SKT took the lead in choosing a hero——Pig Girl.

When it was EDG's turn to choose a hero, everyone's eyes widened, and Guan Zeyuan and Ji Ji were no exception.

"What will you choose?"

The answer was soon revealed - trolls, Sivir.

"what?"

Seeing these two heroes, the audience couldn't help but let out an exclamation, trolls are not so strange, but Sivir...

"It turned out to be this hero..." Guan Zeyuan and Ji Ji were speechless. They guessed for a long time, but they missed it at all.

Remember: "Sivir is a hero who doesn't play many games. I remember that Fnc's AD Oucheng likes to use this hero very much, and the effect is not bad."

Guan Zeyuan: "At least it's more comfortable than the mouse's big mouth. If you choose Sivir, EDG should play defense in the bottom lane."

"Let's see what SKT will take in the final pick."

After the words fell, SKT's last choice was to lock - the big bug.

With the big bug selected, the lineups of both sides are as follows:
EDG, blue side.

Top Road: Troll

Uchino: Prince

Mid Laner: Clockwork Genie

Bot lane: Sivir
Support: Luo
SKT, the red side.

Hit the Road: Big Bug
Wilderness: Piggy

Mid lane: Taliyah
Bottom lane: Xia
Support: Feng Nu

The lineup is determined, and the players replace each other's heroes.

Sivir talent: fervor for war, summoner skills: teleportation, flash.

Luo Talent: Courage of the Colossus, Summoner Skills: Ignite, Flash.

At the end of the countdown, Nofe patted the shoulders of several team members.

Immediately, he bowed and shook hands with the opposing coach, and left the arena.

The game enters the loading interface, and the first match between EDG and SKT in the group stage is about to begin.
