Chapter 397 Papaya Star Spirit
TOP Club.

office.

Cvmax briefly glanced at the 8.2 update text and looked up to meet Kouma's frowning expression.

"You should be used to this kind of thing."

"It was delayed to 10 minutes, and the laning phase was almost over."

Kouma expressed his current feelings based on the updated content: “No matter how used you are to it, it’s annoying to be targeted.

I have been optimizing the details recently, but now I only need to consider the impact of the resource group. "

The practiced cooperation will be invalidated immediately.

This would create disgust for any coaching staff.

Or.

The Stopwatch tactic was banned, and TOP was the most affected. After all, they practiced the most and for the longest time, and had more experience than other teams.

If the designer didn't nerf it, at least we could win a few more games.

"Haha."

Regarding Kouma's frustration, Cvmax seemed a little happy: "To put it bluntly, no one else has the right to be targeted by Riot."

When the preseason was overhauled, the designers summarized S7.

I think the reason why the number of heroes appearing on the stage has decreased compared to last year is that professional teams are too focused on stability, and the presence of Censer and Fervent Leona limits the choice of characters - you can't win without choosing the front row.

So in order to make more heroes eligible to play, they chose to recast runes, delete the previous talent tree system, and follow the idea of ​​letting a hundred flowers bloom.

Just like that.

The stopwatch tactic is really disgusting.

It forces the bottom lane to choose a line-stealing combination, and forces the jungler to come to the bottom lane within 6 minutes, otherwise he will have to wait to lose blood.

It can also be seen from other regions that if the bottom lane does not strengthen its early-stage fighting ability, it is particularly easy to lose.

Why?

Because S8's damage has overflowed.

The frequency of single kills in each lane exceeded the high point in recent years. Many times, the burst of grabbing the second lane is enough to get a kill.

From this perspective.

Rune Reforging achieves the designer's idea.

After increasing the base damage.

The blood exchange shots in the three lanes are much higher than in S7, so it is not impossible to burst out the first blood for more than ten minutes.

Because in this version, it is beneficial to press forward, as it makes it easier to snowball on a single line. Unlike S7, a slight disadvantage doesn't matter at all. Team battles are all about formation and who is more solid, and few people are defeated.

~~~
Training room.

Qin Hao was also looking at the update content of 8.2.

Halfway through, Lao Ma cursed, "Ah, the stopwatch has changed to ten minutes, what's the point of it?" This was the first time that Lao Ma experienced official restrictions.

In the past as a player.

At most, he would complain about his favorite hero having his stats cut, but he had never experienced being banned for such a tactical match. I can only say that it felt a bit novel, as this was the first time that the designer had taken care of him.

"Fortunately, Ai Li was also nerfed."

Seeing this description, Jin Gong felt a little comfortable. Compared with long-range, he prefers close-range collision. And Ai Li is really disgusting. It's like getting a free ride in the laning phase. You just need to wait for the skill CD.

"Ezreal was nerfed, Aftershock's base damage was lowered by 20, and Indestructible and Guardian were strengthened."

"What's the use? The way the Guardian is triggered is so stupid. As long as the shield is destroyed before the fight, Aftershock still has the advantage." Lao Zei commented on the bottom lane.

In general.

8.2 nerfed all the runes that had performed well in the past two weeks, strengthened the runes that no one used, lowered Ezreal's Q, and optimized Ornn's ultimate animation (sometimes he was topped but still got the sheep)...

A round of repairs.

The only thing that changes the situation is that the stopwatch start time is delayed to 10 minutes. Just by reading the instructions, you can tell who it is aimed at.

After all, it was from the preseason to 8.2.

Only TOP's snowball method is the most overbearing and unreasonable.

After a while.

Guo Hao shouted, "Come here, the coaching staff wants you to have a meeting."

Meeting?
Lao Zei took a look at the update and thought that this was the topic of discussion. Other than that, he couldn't think of any reason for the meeting.

Because you need to practice the lineup.

It’s always mentioned before training matches.

For example, recently, the advice Lao Zei received was to play more Ezreal, Kog'Maw, Jinx...including in the ranked games, it is also the money-stealing Ezreal and those heroes that are adapted to the deadly rhythm, so as to gain more points.

to be frank.

Even though the damage of Force Attack was increased in 8.2, I don't think it's necessary to use Force Attack runes to play AD. Now the bottom lane is mainly about consumption and pulling, and Force Attack is only suitable for a wave of attacks, and the triggering method is not pleasing.

It is said that Ez is Riot's own son.

The current bottom lane ecosystem is to release Ezreal and keep up with Ezreal's development rhythm. As long as you don't ban it, you will encounter Ezreal every time. In this way, strong attack is even less popular, after all, Ezreal is flexible enough and it is difficult to have a chance to chase Ezreal.

With this kind of thinking.

When Lao Zei came in, he heard the coaching staff talking in Korean. Looking at the tactical board, the blue and red magnets were already arranged on it.

"Cough cough."

While Cvmax was attracting everyone's attention, only Kouma was staring at Qin Hao's face. What surprised him was that Qin Hao looked very calm, as if he didn't know what the content of the 8.2 version update was.

Kouma was a little confused.

He remembered that after S5, first Ryze's damage was cut, and then his ultimate was changed to support. During that period, Xianghe was not without emotions.

After all, at that time only his Ryze could intersperse basic attacks like that and maximize output, but no one else could do that.

then.

While Cvmax was summarizing the past few days of training matches, Kouma asked, "Have you seen the version update?"

"Ah."

Qin Hao sat next to Xiao Huasheng and nodded. Although he didn't see the whole thing, it shouldn't affect the laning situation in the middle lane.

"Don't you have any ideas?" the translator replied truthfully.

Qin Hao frowned, thinking that Kou Ma was testing his understanding of the game, so he replied honestly, "With this change, the value of the stopwatch is too low, and only the team-opening position needs the error tolerance brought by the stopwatch.

In fact, the cost-effectiveness of the stopwatch in non-team-fighting locations was average before, mainly because it could quickly expand the economy after crossing the tower, so it was important.

But now we can’t do that.”

Qin Hao paused for 2 seconds and continued, "In this case, clicking on biscuits or sorcery to increase mana would be more suitable for the current laning rhythm."

In this version, laning is more important than in S7.

If the lines are not connected properly, it will be difficult to compete with the opponent for neutral resources.

To put it harshly.

If an AD is forced to use the meter to avoid damage at the first moment, it basically means that the teamfight is a bit difficult to fight. Moreover, there is no way to output during the time when the meter is pressed.

Horse deduction:......

He never thought he would get such an answer. I was just asking if you felt bad, and I wanted to tease you and give you encouragement. I didn't ask you what you would do if you didn't click the stopwatch! !

and also.

After seeing the update, don’t you feel the malice outputted by the designer?

Cvmax didn't understand what was going on, and asked in a low voice: "What do you want to say?"

"He's always like this?" Kouma Yatong asked, "So...stable?"

Cvmax is a bit confusing.

"This is a good thing. It's better than getting red-hot all the time." He didn't understand the meaning of Kou Ma, although there are many players in the professional circle who are prone to getting red-hot and getting excited.

But this does not mean it is suitable for the stadium.

Otherwise, if you are targeted by your opponent, you will explode and there will be no point in communicating.

"I mean, the stopwatch tactic was extinguished right after it started. Wouldn't he feel angry or frustrated? Did he complain when the incense burner was cut last year?"

Cvmax is even more confusing.

The team he coached in his first year was a champion, and LGD was very optimistic. Except for Langx who had a bit of a burst, the others didn't do much when under pressure, and they didn't understand the meaning of "扣马" at all.

In fact.

It's certainly not a pleasant feeling to put in hard work and then have it destroyed.

When Kouma led SKT, Wolf would complain about the nerf of Zyra. After all, his Zyra was the most powerful at that time. It was very polite not to curse the designer's family when his right-hand man was removed by the official.

Including those guys with unique skills.

There are times when defenses are broken even when live streaming is going on.

So many times, Kouma acts as a babysitter and often takes the players to receive psychological counseling. After all, after practicing for so long, it suddenly becomes useless, which is disgusting for everyone.

He has also seen people not wanting to play on the spot if the recent performance is not good and the public opinion is bad.

Just like that.

I'm a little inexperienced when I suddenly see Penicillin.

"You're right, he is indeed suitable for the arena." Kouma had to admit that this kind of mentality of not being surprised by fame or disgrace is really suitable for e-sports.

No wonder he has been in such good shape in the past two years. He probably hasn't encountered any period of confusion. As Kouma thought about it, he suddenly realized something.

I understood it in just a second.

A group of people actually talked about supporting ideas around version changes.

Looking at Qin Hao who was making suggestions fiercely, Kouma's mind was filled with the image of that man. If Xiang He could be like this... then he would not be Xiang He.

Also.

If every player is the same, what's the point of being a coach? You have to get to know different people to experience different flavors.

Qin Hao didn't know what Kouma was thinking.

He has penicillin.

Design ideas are not difficult for him, at most it just takes some time.

For others, if a rank-up routine is destroyed, they may be unable to adapt for a long time, or even start to hate the game.

But for Qin Hao, being targeted is fine, because he has plenty of time to study anyway.

This is just like testing for bugs.

People who don't like it think it's torture, and people who like it feel a sense of accomplishment. Moreover, even without this routine, the normal attack and defense rhythm can win the game.

It's not like he has only one trick up his sleeve.

~~~
And in the outside world.

The designer's Twitter account said that this adjustment has maintained the fun, but this complacency made some players a little disgusted.

After all, it was before this.

Many of the "main heroes" have been ruined, and every announcement has a daddy flavor.

Dian Zhongdianru: We took this opportunity to weaken xxx so that online heroes can feel safer.

Finally, I would like to say: I wish you good luck in the fields of justice.

look.

Every update.

It will definitely reflect the flavor of complying with public opinion.

But sometimes, the hero itself does not have a super model, but the super model is caused by equipment changes, but the designer does not care, and the win rate is directly cut if it exceeds the limit, and it will not change back even if the equipment is adjusted later.

same.

Bottom lane players, including jungle players, do not like the Stopwatch League, but that does not mean they agree with the announcement.

In the Twitter comment section, many people mocked:
[Just target me, why are you saying it so righteously? 】

[When will the scorpion be strengthened? ]

[Balance? Do we have a word for balance? Or does it mean that all heroes in the canyon can rank up, and there is no such thing as superior or inferior.]

【Ha ha. 】

[Stopwatch League is indeed tiring, but this is no reason for designers to make arbitrary adjustments.

You can strengthen other runes and give players some countermeasures instead of destroying the balance and making such tactical soil non-existent. 】

[Is this the second champion? Galio was nerfed to the point where he can only use AP, Lucian's Q and ultimate were nerfed, and he lost his corresponding suppression power... Until now, even the routines he used have been banned. ]

[I propose that champions be banned from competing, so that new talents can have a chance to shine.]

[Who would follow the game if they don’t even know the ID? ]

Later.

Korean network forum.

Seeing the 8.2 update, many people are relieved.

[As if! ]

[Before the bottom lane didn't have a click meter, many heroes could be played. Support the designer's Iron Fist of Justice! ]

【TOP is the one who got hurt, so I give a thumbs up. 】

[Brushing, deduction, and P ghosts are all in the same team, so the designer just needs to target them more and it will be done. 】

[As expected of a mold, it knows how to destroy the balance! The canyon is in such a mess, it's all the mold's fault! 】

[Okay, okay, I didn’t want to play LOL anymore. Support the designer! ]

Resist it.

As a mold base.

Of course the fans are unhappy.

Just like Kouma said, it will take time for other teams to imitate, but as long as TOP doesn't make any adjustments, they will definitely be comfortable.

the most important is.

From the end of S7 to now.

The heroes of Qin Haohui were severely weakened.

Except for those frequent mid laners, most of the signature skills have been cut, including Nightmare, whose ultimate time has been increased and passive damage has been reduced. The hope is to drive Nightmare back to the jungle.

【Classic teaching players to play games. 】

[You know how difficult it is to win consecutive championships, right? We are targeted every day, and even Faker has to stop us. 】

[It’s fine to reduce the value, but why do you also reduce this? If you can, just delete the stopwatch directly so that no one can use it. ]

[Sima Designer is targeting everyone every day, just to benefit LCK. ]

[Indeed, LCK has a slow pace, so reducing collisions is good for them.]

[You really don't want Qing Shen to win the Triple Crown? ]

[Disgusting, disgusting, even if it is secretly modified. ]

The announcement was quite classic.

Just saying that some things that made players unhappy happened in the canyon recently, those who don’t know would think that TOP is the one who destroyed the overall environment.

that's it.

TOP’s official Weibo account didn’t say anything, but many fans spontaneously gathered in the comment section to speak up for TOP.

Even in super chat.

Many fans started the cyber wooden fish again.

Seeing the outside world so lively, Guo Hao was so heartwarming! He didn't do anything, but he was able to get traffic and sympathy.

The last one before the New Year.

TOP vs JDG.

Qin Hao was playing solo when he received a WeChat message from C Bo.

C Bo: The task of beating up Pu Pu is now left to you.

Qin Hao: You are so disgusting.

C Bo:? ? ?

Am I disgusting?
You didn't hold back when you hit me last time? You can't treat me differently!
C Bo advised: Humph, you don’t know how cool Pupu is in JDG. He is just playing training games and drinking some wine now. Can you bear to see him decline?
C blog is not a style that is filled with grief.

So until the end.

Qin Hao didn't give C Bo a satisfactory answer.

Only to sit in the battle seat the next day.

Finding that JDG had no intention of banning Zoe, Qin Hao took the initiative to suggest: "Coach, I want to play Zoe."

"Then take it."

"Zoe? Locked!!"

Hao Kai said excitedly: "Since the new hero landed in the canyon, there are not many people who play it well."

Haokai himself is a former professional player who has achieved some success with Viktor. Even after transitioning to become a commentator, his rank remains at the Korean Master level.

Also.

From the spring season to now, the first one to use Zoe was JGD Toothpaste.

For such a bright sword.

Of course Haokai felt excited.
