Chapter 435 Haha, Do You Want to Play?

This day.

Riot designers once again stated that they have created a fairer environment for summoners.

The specific manifestations are:

Adjustments have been made to a series of critical strike equipment, represented by Infinity, and the attack power of all AD heroes has been lowered, generally by 2 to 5 points.

Designers do this.

According to the official statement, they are not very satisfied with the current bottom lane environment.

Because as time goes by, the main strategy of the bottom lane is to stay alive during the laning phase -

The existence of [Quick Footwork], Biscuits and other life restores makes it difficult for the bottom lane to pose a threat... This also makes it difficult for aggressive bottom lane combinations to exert their strength.

Be straightforward.

The designer feels that the bottom lane has a low presence.

When the top and mid laners are actively exchanging blood to seize the rhythm, the ADCs only need to make up for the last blow. Apart from the risk of being bypassed, there are very few laning situations that cannot be sustained.

For example, Able, although he was trapped in the tower for 5 minutes every time, he was qualified to eat some leftover lines.

To this end, the designers hit on their own accord and removed the critical strike attribute of Endless (Swiftness of Foot benefits from the critical strike bonus).

At the same time, the selling price increased from 3400 to 3700, and the new passive became double the critical strike chance and convert 15% of the critical strike damage into true damage.

Not only that.

The prices of the Electric Knife, Cannon, and Phantom Flame are all increased by 300, the price of the Combat Gloves is increased by 200 (400-600), and the Critical Hit Cloak is removed.

This time.

The top player feels comfortable.

With the arrival of version 8.8, the critical strike style has become a thing of the past, and team fights no longer require you to be dragged down by the Storm Rider + Swiftness combo.

【Hahaha, it seems.】

[No problem, just cry AD, I'll take the blame. ]

[Is the designer seriously ill? Reducing the critical hit rate and forcing the favorite son Ezreal to be promoted? ]

[Not only did they not nerf ez, they also nerfed their crit. Poet's Grip. ]

[Forced to go for armor penetration and mixed damage? 】

[The stopwatch has been changed from 10 minutes back to 8 minutes. What? Seeing that there are fewer stopwatches, you want to increase the gambling method for the sixth level? ]

It's not just Twitter.

E-sports forums in various regions are discussing whether the designers have M. This is not because AD players have a high voice and the greatest influence, but because the version changes too fast, so fast that people can't adapt.

Every update means that previous experience will be invalidated.

For example, when the stopwatch tactic became popular, all teams were practicing intensively, but just as they learned it, the tactic was gone.

After a few days, I found that the stealing was super strong. Steady development means automatic leading. I just asked the players to practice more, and then they were urgently nerfed. The strength has become not so exaggerated...

Then I finally got familiar with the new environment.

The designer made another major change.

You should know that in previous years, there were major changes at the beginning of the year, major changes in the middle of the year, and then strengthening of heroes in a specific range at the end of the year. The small versions in between basically only weakened T0 and strengthened the sewer.

But in the S8 season, there is basically a major change every two or three versions.

This is not.

The designers also killed off the Iron Skin and added a small Resolve rune called Skeleton, which simply added to the learning experience.

For those students who only play a few games a month, they will probably be confused when they open the rune interface - where is the rune that adds fixed armor? The rune that adds fixed magic resistance is gone too.

Top Club.

The old thief's brows never relaxed.

For an AD like him who likes to fight in team battles, the new version shows great malice.

"Critical attacks are really useless and can't keep up with the pace of the game."

3400 endless is hard enough to hold back.

Now it has become 3700. If you want to see the effect, you have to buy a critical strike equipment before holding back the endless.

The problem is that the damage in this version is generally overflowing.

In the past, a three-piece set was enough to carry, but now you need four pieces, and the critical strike chance is almost the same as a three-piece set (Infinity Edge does not provide critical strikes, so if you want to maximize the value, it is best to add 50 critical strikes).

Also, in order to hold on to Infinity in the mid-game, his combat power is seriously lower than that of output heroes in other positions.

If others normally go for armor penetration and mixed damage, how are you going to join the team?

"It's useless. The equipment rhythm is too slow. There is no way to fight the dragon group. Unless we release four dragons and hold the line, there is a chance to succeed."

Lao Zei played a few critical hits.

It's totally unbearable.

Because even if it takes shape, it won’t be stronger than before.

“Designers are like that, we just have to adapt, but they have so much more to consider.”

"..."

The training team works with players to study the new version.

Qin Hao paid special attention to Sion, Banner of Command, and the reworked Irelia. He had played Sion in the middle before, and when the big changes were made before the New Year, he also played Sion in the middle.

But at that time, Aery was rampant and had never been nerfed, and Sion's tankiness made it impossible to withstand it (he couldn't even stand under the tower).

设计师突然增强了塞恩的E。一级基础伤害虽然小削了5点,但法强收益方面从0.4加强到了0.55,且提高了护甲削减的持续时间:2.5-4秒。

Also.

The scattered pieces of the Raptor Cape of the Banner of Command have a movement speed bonus when approaching the defense tower, and also have a health recovery effect (+125 basic health recovery).

Compared with the old version, the individual parts are finally useful, and can even reduce hero damage by 70% after synthesis.

Tsk.

~~~
Enter the simulated space at night.

Qin Hao also tried the critical strike style, but as Lao Zei said, the equipment rhythm was much slower. In the past, during the period of Occupy Central (12 minutes to 20 minutes), there was basically no major pressure.

But once the opponent has a 2-piece set and you still have scattered pieces, the jungler will be in trouble.

then.

Qin Hao tried the Raptor again and found that with the bonus to movement speed, it was quite comfortable to play around the defensive tower. Positioning, replenishing lines and counter-consuming enemies were much smoother.

And he found that the nausea level of the comet in the main E belt of Sion increased by 10% compared with the previous one. This is a bit of a change in the ecology.

After all, the difficult part about Sion is his transition.

Once it levels up, it has a pretty good ability to sustain lanes and is less likely to be threatened by a single laning.

As such, the designer increased the magic power benefit of E, which is equivalent to strengthening Comet Sion. Adding the two together, they can bring blood threat to the opponent and improve the ability to stay in the lane.

Combined with the Raptor's reply...

Relying on his proficiency in the hero, Qin Hao quickly perfected his laning strategy.

This night.

Qin Hao was extremely excited.

The more I study the new version, the more interesting it becomes. Compared to before, the positions have become more blurred. Unlike S7, AD was for damage and mid lane was for pushing.

Although it was he who brought the concept of roaming income.

But he doesn't think that staying the same is a good thing.

The next day.

As soon as Mark went down to the training room, he heard Jin Gong's voice: "Three green beans and raptors?!"

"How did you come up with that?"

“That’s what I thought of.”

This answer.

Highlight a matter of course.

Jin Gong swore that if it weren't for Qin Hao, he would have grabbed the other person's neck and used force to get back the place if he questioned his intelligence and understanding of the game.

Sion is not a new hero.

The idea of ​​​​equipment has long been fixed.

If someone tells him that it is more comfortable and easier to shape by playing this way, what will he think?
Do you feel like you have opened the door to a new world?

For a moment.

Jin Gong even wanted to knock open Qin Hao's head to see if there was a secondary canyon map inside. Otherwise, we are all professional players, and you can comprehend the version in one night, doesn't it make me look stupid?

Regarding Jin Gong’s muttering.

Cvmax expressed disdain.

"As I said, the version change is a good thing for us."

Horse deduction:......

What a pretense.

I really want to scold him.

Evening training session.

I saw Qin Hao playing Sion as the Green Bean Man. After he got the Raptor, he could basically stay in the laning phase without any pressure and then run around the map.

before this.

The Top training group all thinks that Ornn is better than Sion, and if they have a choice, they will definitely choose the former. But after the 8.8 version went online, everyone in Top thinks that Sion is better than Ornn.

because--

"One knife, two knives... If they catch me, you guys just push the bottom line together, and then go back to control the dragon."

End of an inning.

Kouma is a little skeptical about life.

As a championship coach, he has the vision to measure the strength of the routine.

"We just came online, right?" Kouma couldn't help but ask Saixunjia.

"To be exact, it has only been online for one day."

"What is he thinking?" Kouma had the same doubts as Jin Gong. There was no other way. Seeing Qin Hao having so much fun, even the people around him found it difficult to remain calm.

He coached SKT for four years, and the experience of these four years told him that every time there is a big change, it is difficult to find the right direction without accumulating experience for two weeks.

This experience applies to most teams, only Qin Hao jumped out and said: NONONO.

at this time.

Kouma inadvertently turned his head to glance at Jin Dahu, and his face turned dark.

This! thing! Eight! things! In! A! Smile!
Who are you laughing at?

Kouma felt a little pain in his eyes. When he was trying to persuade Peanut the day before yesterday, he was ridiculed, saying something like -

【To be truly good to the players is to be responsible for their careers. 】

and so.

He knew what Jin Dahu was laughing at.

It's nothing more than pride. He used Qin Hao as an example to prove how important it is to step out of the comfort zone and to prove that the coaching team's thinking cannot be rigid.

But this is what Kouma cannot understand.

There are many strict coaches in Korea, but even an old stubborn like Edgar is not as stubborn as Cvmax.

of course.

Kouma is not opposed to "forcing things to grow".

He just felt that he had to control the intensity...

After a while.

Qin Hao talked about the current situation of critical strikes again: "If it's just a slow pace, going mid can make up for it - but this requires sacrificing the jungler, and the mid-term must be stable, otherwise it will be meaningless." "..."

"Choose a mage who can clear waves slowly in the bottom lane, so that the AD can still take over the teamfight in the late game."

"The AD mid laner is the core, and the mage goes down to delay the tower loss?"

"Ah."

Qin Hao nodded: "Otherwise, we can only go for mixed damage. The armor-piercing set won't work in the late game. We can only play fast push, or have a mage core in the middle lane and try to slow down the rhythm of the little dragon."

"In this case, AD is the main carry. A variation of four protecting one."

As he said that, Cvmax subconsciously looked towards the old thief, and happened to meet a calm face.

"I remember you were pretty good at playing Death Song and Bomberman?"

Old Thief: ...

What do you mean?
I can't play four protecting one? I'm in OMG... Never mind, Lao Zei is too lazy to resist. He is very Buddhist now, and he can exchange experiences of being a dog with Da Gou when he has nothing to do.

Don't even mention weakening critical strikes.

Before the nerf, whoever won the top half of the S8 would win the world. Except for a few teams that insisted on playing in the bottom lane, most of them were weakening the tactical position of the bottom lane.

"You'll get the feel for it after practicing a couple of times." The old thief really thinks his mage is okay.

Except for the fact that they are not very good at spell assassins, most mages just need to control their skills well.

Hear this.

Mark is a little moved.

He really wanted to shout: My mage is also good! I can also guard the tower like a dog!
With such expectation, Mark looked at Cvmax eagerly, his little eyes kept looking in this direction. Cvmax felt a little strange and turned to look at Qin Hao.

"Have you been practicing male guns recently?"

"I think that Graves can limit the Blade Master. He can push the lane, but it's hard for him to kill him instantly in teamfights."

Cvmax thought about the distribution and said with satisfaction: "No matter how the version changes, as long as the hero pool is deep enough, there is nothing to worry about."

"Disband!"

Mark was about to cry.

Isn’t Mai quite good at observing people’s facial expressions?
~~~
AD players complained, and ordinary players mocked the designers for making adjustments back and forth.

4 month 13 number.

Two days before the match against WE.

Guo Hao found Qin Hao and talked about the collaboration with Cha Baidao.

"offline activity?"

"Yes, you just have to show up and pretend."

"it's not good."

Qin Hao subconsciously refused, "I can stand for half a day." He just hated the kind of arrangements that suddenly disrupted his schedule.

Besides, it’s just the regular season now.

Is he such a big name? He always felt that Cha Baidao was just giving him money. He didn't have a deep understanding of cross-border collaboration.

"Then we go that day and come back that night?" Guo Hao asked again.

After the negotiation.

The next day.

Guo Hao first went to the airport to pick up Li Zhengtai, and then took the two to the Cha Baidao store.

This is the peak time for ordering.

Orders from Meituan and Ele.ba kept pouring out of the machine. Feeling the busy atmosphere, Qin Hao didn't know where to put his hands.

I don’t know who Guo Hao notified in advance.

After standing for a while, the manager of Cha Baidao rushed over from the preparation room at the back and took Qin Hao's hand: "Welcome our champion."

Qin Hao was a little embarrassed: "What do you need me to do?" He looked at the employees wearing masks and uniform clothes and asked: "I can hammer ice, this doesn't look difficult."

He thought the job was not complicated.

aside.

Manager Cha Baidao was stunned for a moment.

Since the concept of co-branding came up, they have connected with many celebrities, but no matter how friendly they are, they are not down-to-earth to this extent.

Participate offline.

I'm just helping to warm up, acting as a human stand, and giving fans a little surprise... Didn't you see the classic photo of you looking back outside?

This is a classic.

Then we can calculate how much the purchase data has increased year-on-year...

You will know the effect of this collaboration.

When a manager's mind is full of business thoughts.

Guo Hao sighed that Qin Hao was so sociable. This kind of intelligence was rare in the e-sports circle. He still remembered that the last time he took Qin Hao to the company headquarters, Qin Hao took the initiative to buy a few watches and gave them to the decision-makers of Topsports.

This can be seen.

Why does the boss like Qin Hao so much?

Why did they say they wanted to give the team shares and deepen the ties?

The watch is certainly not worth the money.

I won't wear it when attending events.

Even signing the contract is a win-win situation.

Even if Qin Hao's attitude is cold, Top will not break the contract.

But the impression will definitely not be that good.

"If you want to smash the ice... you need some strength."

Seeing Qin Hao's enthusiasm, the manager of Cha Baidao couldn't help but smile and said, "How about this, you can help pack the products yourself and then hand them to the customers... It may be a bit tiring."

"I've been exercising recently." Qin Hao raised his arms to indicate that his condition was not as serious as an occupational disease.

that's it.

Qin Hao put on an apron of the same style and started packing.

"Give."

The employees did most of the work, and Qin Hao was responsible for packing the bags and putting straws and paper towels in them. It was such a simple job, and there were people around to help check for omissions and fill in the gaps.

And as a green powder.

Song Jiajia knew about the collaboration, but when she walked into the store and found that it was Qin Hao himself who served her the milk tea, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Wow!!"

After being recognized, Qin Hao smiled and helped promote it: "We are holding an event recently... You can pay attention to it when you have time."

Qin Hao continued to put the straw in and put the milk tea into the bag with his portrait printed on it.

Song Jiajia stood outside the store, covering her mouth to hide her teeth from showing when she smiled, and took a photo of Qin Hao who was packing, and posted it on WeChat Moments with the caption: I drank the milk tea personally handed to me by Qingshen. It tastes so good.

I'm not satisfied after posting it.

Log in to Weibo and post it again.

"???"

"Sister, which store is this?"

"No. xx, xx Road."

"Thank you sister, I hope it's not too late."

As a permanent guest of LPL.

During the competition, many people watched the commercials shot by Qin Hao. As such, Qin Hao was busy just by word of mouth.

And according to the regional manager's observation.

Most of the people who come here are girls... The manager finds it interesting to see these girls who are indifferent to the work of other employees and only smile when they receive milk tea.

It feels like chasing a star.

"Thank you for your support."

"Yes, the event ends on the 22nd of this month."

"Can you give me a heart?"

"can."

If Qin Hao keeps smiling, the fans' satisfaction will be three or four times higher. If they can give some response, they will think that this trip is not in vain.

Qin Hao looked normal, responding to customers just like he responded to fans after a game. Since winning the championship, the world he was familiar with was one where smiles were rewarded with smiles, and gentleness was rewarded with gentleness.

This attitude.

Even the employees of Cha Baidao were a little surprised and discussed quietly:
"He's so white. But he's not that tall."

"Esports players probably rarely get sun exposure. I heard they stay in air-conditioned rooms every day."

“You are very patient with your fans.”

"I read online that his family conditions are average."

"Standing up on your own is a plus. And considerate."

"You won't have any thoughts about him, will you? You can be a sister."

"Only four years older. Not too much."

"..."

After being too busy to have any energy left.

Guo Hao declined the invitation to the evening banquet and drove Qin Hao back to the base.

"Actually, it's enough to just stand there like a human stand." Guo Hao said when he saw Qin Hao slumped in the back seat.

"It's so easy to make money, it's a bit uneasy." Qin Hao adjusted his posture: "I'm already very lucky."

Guo Hao: ...

Guo Hao didn't know how to persuade him.

He felt that he was lucky too.

~~~
After the training match in the evening, Koumado asked, "Can you play Varus?"

"will not."

"you will not?"

"No." Qin Hao said affirmatively.

"Haha." With the help of the translator, Kouma laughed for 2 seconds: "Godv is in LGD, didn't he teach me some tips?"

After saying that, Kouma felt a little embarrassed and coughed heavily twice.

"I also thought about what you said yesterday. I feel that Varus will have a good chance to play mid. He has both mixed damage and AP. And he can cooperate with the jungler (level 6)."

"Well, I'll go practice these few days."

The next day.

A group of people went to the stadium.

If we must study the opponent, WE is already in decline, and the decline of 2.0 is obvious. 957 in the top lane has declined seriously, and Condi in the jungle has started to mess around, which has caused Xiye to become more and more nervous.

It can be said.

How beautiful is S7’s dream.

What a huge gap it brought to 60E the following year.

and so.

When Top actively locked onto Graves, then took out Empyrean on the fifth floor, swapped Karthus to the fourth floor, and Graves went to the middle lane, 60E had only one thought -

Play?
