Silver top order, chaotic career

The group is the first to qualify, and the LPL coaching staff is temporarily relieved.

Although the ultimate goal is to win the championship, the absence of a round of semi-finals will not only allow the players to adjust, but also allow the coaching staff to adjust the BP strategy by watching the Lms and LCK games in the background.

"But I feel that the strength gap between the two divisions is a bit big, and the LMS division may not be able to play too many things."

Abu was inexplicably worried, and said: "The final is most likely to be a duel between us and the LCK division. The competition system is not very friendly to us."

As soon as these words came out, some teams' faces were not very good.

In a competition area, there are strong and weak teams.

The competition system of the final is a duel between the two divisions. That is to say, if the fifth game is not reached, the teams in the same division can only play once.

Why is it said that this competition system is not friendly to the LPL division?

The reason is very simple. The LPL division now does have top combat power EDG, but apart from EDG, the combat power of other teams is not stable.

For example, IG, the reckless style of play, anyone can win, and anyone can lose.

For example, RNG's style of play may be restrained by some teams.

As for RW, it is recognized as the weakest team among the four teams, and no one even thinks they can win.

Therefore, the members of the "weak team" felt uncomfortable when they heard Abu say this, and always felt that Abu was insinuating that they were dragging the team back.

"The strength of the LCK team is indeed more average." The other coaches nodded, agreeing with Abramovich's point of view.

At the same time, everyone began to study how to simulate how to assign opponents.

Regional battles are different from regular battles.

Although it is a Bo5 system, the competition in the competition area requires the coaching staff to assign the order of appearance of the teams in the competition area, such as who to send in the first game, who to send in the second game...

Moreover, before the list came out, the two sides did not know the opponent's dispatch list.

In other words, this blind box battle mode adds infinite possibilities to the game, just like Tian Ji's horse racing...

If LCK can offset EDG with its weakest team, it will undoubtedly be great news for LCK.

Conversely, if LPL can use RW to offset the strongest team of the opponent, and when EDG basically secures a point, LPL will have an advantage.

The competition system is actually not complicated, but this kind of psychological game still caused the coaching staff to lose countless brain cells.

……

In the blink of an eye, the semi-finals between the LMS division and the LCK division finally began.

The intercontinental competition schedule is tight, and there is no time adjustment for the teams at all.

The group stage has just ended, and the semi-finals have already begun.

"I hope the LMS division can play a few more rounds." Abramovich muttered.

Ye Xiu laughed.

Abramovich thinks too much, the LMS division is already in a bad state, and many well-known LMS players have even contacted the LPL club, wanting to join the LPL to play games.

In this state, it is strange that the LMS division can play at a high level.

Of course, even in the heyday of the LMS division, Bo5 has no chance of winning against the LCK division.

After all, Ye Xiu has seen the strength of the GRX team. It is no exaggeration to say that it is not as good as the high-scoring passers-by.

In the Lms Division, there is more than one team with the strength of GRX. Except for the Flash Wolves who can resist the resistance, the other teams have no chance at all.

This is true.

Even though the LMS division took a slant and came up with a lot of strange lineups and strange play styles, they were easily defeated by the LCK division in the end.

In just three games, [-]-[-] ended the semi-finals.

"This……"

The commentator and the audience were dumbfounded.

No one expects the LMS division to win the LCK division, but it's still surprising that they lost so badly and so quickly.

Between the two divisions, the strength is like the difference between a child and an adult. LMS did not show any aggressiveness, and was ravaged by the LCK division throughout.

"It's outrageous."

"The provincial team still doesn't work."

"The gap in strength is too great, man and machine are the same."

"Man and machine are better than the provincial team."

In the live broadcast room of the game, the bullet screens were full of heart-pounding bullet screens.

The two commentators on the LMS side were a little choked up when they saw that their competition area was so vulnerable.

After so many years of commentary, I have witnessed the imminent decline of the LMS competition area, and it is still an irreversible decline. No one can live in Bengbu.

"They did the best they could."

"This time the protagonist is not us, I believe the LPL division will beat the LCK for us."

Concentrating their emotions, the two commentators began to discuss the final.

No matter what I think in my heart, I definitely support the LPL division on the surface.

Of course, there are also quite a few who are ready to watch jokes in the LPL division.

On the screen, Wanwan's team exited.

So far, the LMS division has also been eliminated, leaving only the LPL and LCK to prepare for the final showdown.

……

The game has not yet started, but the outside world has already started discussions.

Some people taught the coaching staff how to line up troops, some taught the coaching staff how to BP, and some silently cheered for the LPL division.

No one wants to be overwhelmed by the opponent for the honor of the intercontinental competition.

The most stressful ones were the four teams participating in the competition, especially the weaker teams, who originally came to show their faces to attract fans and win glory for the competition area.

But if the LPL division loses, someone has to take the blame. There is no doubt that unless there is a strong team that really pulls the crotch and loses to a team that shouldn't lose... Except for this situation, the team that takes the blame is huge. Probability is weak team.

Therefore, on the eve of the game, the hardest training is not strong teams like EDG and RNG, but weak teams like RW.

Even, everyone in RNG started a live broadcast and played PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.

This move caused dissatisfaction among many people.

The RNG official blog also responded in a timely manner, and quickly issued a statement, saying that the RNG players have finished training, but they are just relaxing in private.

After the statement came out, most of the fans' emotions became less intense.

After all, the game hasn't been played yet, so there's no need to put pressure on the players.

Still, the seeds of stress have been formed.

Once RNG has a problem in the finals, it is conceivable that the audience will definitely use this point to attack RNG.

"The way RNG relaxes is quite special."

In the EDG team, the players couldn't help laughing when they watched the self-media reports.

Factory Director: "FPS games affect the competitive feel, really..."

The crowd nodded.

League belongs to e-sports, a 2.5D confrontation game. Although FPS also has confrontation attributes, it is a 3D shooting game.

Two categories, and the operation feel is different...

No matter how talented the RNG players are, the state of hand feel is really mysterious and difficult to control, and the state of hand feel can greatly affect the player's competitive state.

Abramovich was helpless: "After all, RNG is not their own team, so it is difficult to manage. I just hope that there will be no problems in the finals."

……

The screen turns.

The final, finally begins.

The competition venues are so popular that even outside the venues, there are a large number of fans.

Online, the ratings are growing exponentially.

As the two most popular competition areas today, everyone also wants to watch the duel between the two sides to see who is stronger and who is weaker.

And before the start of the game, both sides also released all kinds of cruel words.

LCK said that LPL's win was just a fluke, while LPL mocked LCK for still living in the glory of the past.

For a moment, the atmosphere became tense, and the fans' emotions rose to the extreme.

In the LPL backstage lounge.

"The list has been handed in." Abu said in a deep voice.

The first RNG game, the second IG game, the third EDG game, and the fourth RW game.

If the first three games can be won, then there is no need for the weakest RW to play, but there is a high probability that this will not happen.

However, as long as they can win two games in the first three games, even if RW loses, they can still send EDG to the game.

Now EDG gives them the feeling that as long as they play, they will definitely win.

Therefore, after research by the coaching staff, their goal is not to say how to get to the LCK, but how to drag the situation to the fifth game.

Of course, if the LCK can be terminated early, it will be the best result.

Everyone present felt a little apprehensive, wondering whether things would develop as they imagined.

"The LCK roster should have come out."

While waiting, the LCK list soon appeared in front of them.

The first team sent by the LCK is the KT team.

"KT?"

Everyone present looked at each other in blank dismay.

KT is not necessarily the strongest team in the LCK, but it is definitely the last team any team wants to face.

KT is like LPL's IG, like an unstable time bomb.

It is possible to blow up the opponent, and it is also possible to blow up yourself.

The most important thing is that the bottom lane duo of the KT team is Deft and Mata...

Both of these people have played in LPL, not to mention, among them, mata used to be uzi's auxiliary partner, and Deft suppressed Uzi in LPL.

These two players are players who know Uzi better, and RNG's bot lane advantage was suppressed to a minimum.

And regardless of the bottom lane, Smeb is definitely bigger than any one of Letme and Stance, and Nakano can fight against it.

It can be said that KT is definitely the opponent that RNG does not want to encounter, not one of them.

"It's stupid, it's better to play SKT." Seeing the result, Xiangguo couldn't help muttering cursingly.

Mata taught him a lot in RNG, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is half a master. Now that the two sides are facing each other, he is too easy to be seen through by the other party.

"Casa on."

The RNG coaching staff also took this into consideration, so they could only let Xiangguo rest in the audience, and Kasa played instead of him.

"Huh?" Xiangguo didn't expect the coaching staff to replace him directly, he was surprised but also a little depressed.

Moreover, there is also a hint of ominous premonition in my heart, it seems... Recently, Kasa has played more and more frequently.

"Go!"

Time passed, and soon it was time for the team to enter the arena.

Everyone in RNG took a deep breath, got up and went to the arena.

"It's not easy to fight."

Ye Xiu looked at the backs of several RNG players, and said: "RNG has been testing the lineup recently, changing the game style, and the current style of play is more biased towards operations to protect the bottom lane.

This style of play is a bit formulaic, and even because of changing the style of play, RNG has lost the team battle system they used to be best at. "

Why did RNGS8 fail?
In addition to version changes, not having a set of skilled play is an important reason.

Some people will say four guarantees and one, but in fact, four guarantees and one are not RNG's signature, but more of a helpless choice with no choice.

Team battles are the signature of RNG, but the RNG of S8 is so ambitious that they abandon their own strengths and turn to study their own weaknesses, which is a bit of putting the cart before the horse.

"It's true what you said. RNG's recent games have indeed become more and more watery. There were several big advantages that were almost overturned."

The teammates recalled the recent RNG game, and they also felt a little enlightened.

"Then this game..."

Seeing the BP game going on on the screen, everyone couldn't help frowning.

The situation is not good.

On stage, BP has entered a white-hot stage.

KT was on the blue side, and Shangzhong actually locked down Sword Demon and Jess.

"It's over."

Seeing that KT got these two heroes, even Ye Xiu couldn't help but groaned in her heart.

Needless to say, Sword Demon is a strong version. Although many professional players have reported that it is difficult to play, for an experienced top laner like Smeb, he will definitely find the beauty of Sword Demon.

And Jess is also a hero that LCK is good at.

The key point is not these, but RNG's top two players are not as strong as their opponents.

Now that Sword Demon Jess is out, RNG's middle and upper lanes are under pressure.

"KT should have guessed that we will play RNG in the first game, and BP has targeted it."

"It seems that this one is more ominous than good."

Abramovich looks heavy, RNG's BP is too watery, completely suppressed by KT.

If the list was not decided by them on the spur of the moment, he even suspected that someone had leaked the news.

"Xiaohu took Ryze." Ye Xiu said: "KT Nakano is Jess + Pig Girl, RNG is Ryze and Blind Monk... You can also fight, but it depends on how you operate."

Both midfielders are not weak, but Ryze is too uncomfortable in the lane. If the lane is handled well, you may not lose in 2v2RNG.

But here is the problem, can Xiaohu really handle ucal?

While thinking about it, the BP of both parties has been completely over.

KT took out an unconventional lineup in the bottom lane - big eyes + Shen, RNG is Verus + Morgana.

Games start.

At the beginning, neither side intended to fight, and put up a long snake formation to defend until the little soldiers came online.

When it comes to the laning stage, the laning gap between the middle and upper levels is reflected.

Although Letme is old-fashioned, Smeb is more oily and has good offensiveness.

In the middle, Ruiz seems to be more afraid of Jess, and his position is extremely cautious.

The upper and middle line rights are all in the hands of KT, and KT has completely taken the initiative for a while.

RNG did a perfect defense and didn't give the opponent a chance for a few minutes.

But there is a good saying that if you keep it for a long time, you will lose it.

Jess seized a wave of opportunities and hammered it up at the same time.Pig Girl and Q Flash collide with Ruiz.

Immediately afterwards, Jess hammered three times, instantly playing the passive of the pig girl.

Snapped!
Ryze took another control before he finished one control, and was accused of not handing over his flash until he died.

"First blood!"

The system kill prompt sounded.

A blood!

Whoa!
Off the court, the audience burst into an uproar.

Ye Xiu shook her head slightly and said, "It's gone."

Ryze's role in the RNG lineup is very important. Once Ryze's position is lost, RNG will lose its rhythm completely.

Ten minutes later, the KT economy was already more than [-] ahead.

It can be clearly seen that KT has the most obvious lead in the top and middle, and although the bottom lane economy is flat, it is also because the blind monk gave the wild area to Verus... The overall disadvantage is already extremely obvious.

Seeing this, everyone's heart was greatly chilled.

No miracles!

Until the RNG base was pushed flat, the scene was completely quiet. (end of this chapter)
