My days at the helm of senior kayaking at WBG

Chapter 203 Conquering the enemy without fighting

In the third game, T1 chose the blue side.

Before the director, the audience or the commentator could react, the first floor directly locked on to "Quisanti" and planned to recite the showmaker bible - "This is Kui".

There is no one who will not be impressed by Quesanti at MSI 2023.

Such an old black brother, after experiencing the weakening and adjustments throughout the spring season, is still a big name in the arena, retaining a very high selection rate and ban rate.

Just like Gwen in the 22 MSI, the tankiness and burst damage of the old black supermodel make it invincible throughout the version changes.

Now T1 directly picked Darkseid, the meaning is very clear, they are clinging to the thigh of the version, and they will not release Quesanti if they can. They have ruined their own game, so there is no way they can let the opponent play with him.

This was all within WBG's expectations.

Having won two games, it seems reasonable to let the other side play with a black guy.

Putting aside other things, looking at Zeus's current state, can he play well if he is given Quesanti?
"Let him choose, Shy. I have Gwen as a backup for you."

Danny smiled and said that he was going to use Shy Brother's "41-".

"it is good."

Hearing the coach's words, the shy nodded, but there was not much smile on his face.

It's shy's old habit. He usually looks playful when he's playing games on live broadcasts, but he becomes stern-faced when the main competition begins. During the game, he turns into a murderous devil and his teammates can't stop him.

"While chatting and laughing, Shy finished the kill" - this is not the first time that old teammates like Ning Wang and Jack have experienced this.

"Quesanti is fine, this silly hero."

Ning Wang was disdainful, he didn't play top lane anyway.

"Tsk..." Jack smacked his lips, "It's hard to say, it depends on the situation."

As an ADC, Jack has been ravaged by Hei Ge so many times, so he knows how to evaluate the hero Quesanti.

This guy is the kind that looks stupid, but he dares to roam around in a team fight and can kill the ADC with full health.

It's okay if he opens it wide, but if he doesn't, you really can't scrape it at all.

"Why do I feel like it's Mid Lane Kui?"

Jiang Huai had a bad feeling.

Unlike others, he has watched many Faker games.

Unlike the previous Faker, the current Faker likes to play some "meaty guys" or heroes with a higher tolerance rate in the final game to control the game situation.

Just like doinb, after being beaten many times in the laning phase, Lao Fei also learned to take shortcuts.

If you can't win head-on, choose to counter, or just stay in the middle lane, and then cultivate gumayusi or Zeus.

The mid laner Quesanti was not only invented by Jiang Huai in LPL in advance, but also favored by LCK players such as Faker and Chovy in the LCK arena. That's why Jiang Huai has this worry. After all, there is currently no solution to the mid laner Quesanti in LPL. Jiang Huai has some experience but doesn't want to experiment in the deciding game.

"Oh, Kui is locked. Let's see what T1 says next and what solutions Weibo gives."

Miller has only a vague understanding of the subject, but he has great skill in creating atmosphere.

The comments from LPL and LCK were all the same: "This is Kui, 1700 HP, armor... magic resistance... W..."

I have watched countless MSI games, so it’s not surprising at all.

It depends on how wbg bps.

Danny handled it with ease.

Being on the red side, Aphelios Lulu is directly taken.

I originally wanted to use Lucian, but Lucian had been banned by T1, so I could only use Aphelios.

Admittedly, Jack's Aphelios performance is not ideal, but he has practiced a lot for WBG so far, so it is still okay to take it out now as a backup.

In addition, after being reminded by Jiang Huai, Danny also felt that the hero Quesanti would go mid.

In this way, if the middle lane lacks output, the other lanes must make up for the damage.

There are no core heroes to choose from in the top and jungle of MSI now, and only ADC can make a big difference. Naturally, a popular core like Aphelios cannot be given to T1.

"Aphelios Lulu, a very solid choice." Uzi said as he watched WBG's BP, "But is Jack's Aphelios any good? I feel like his Aphelios isn't as good as mine."

This made Heizi fall into deep thought.

That’s not right, it seems that Jack Aphelios really doesn’t have many famous scenes.

But if I'm right, it seems like I'm the stained white piece.

One thought is a water ghost, one thought is a dog blow, the stain live broadcast room is quite chaotic.

On the other hand, after seeing WBG's bottom lane choice, T1 quickly locked down Jinx and Titan.

The choice was prepared long ago, the old traditional duo in the bottom lane saved the LCK.

"This lineup is too old, but it's really solid." Zzitai said.

The response given by WBG was jungler Zhao Xin.

Ning Wang's Thirteen Deadly Shots are coming to claim SKT's life!
"Fuck! Ningren!"

The audience was very excited, and some even felt that this was a sure thing.

But when T1 made his next two choices, everyone fell silent again.

They saw T1's last two picks, one was Mantis and the other was Gwen.

"Two top laners? No, one Quesanti mid laner?"

Guan Zeyuan was shocked. He was quite surprised.

The play style of Quesanti as mid laner is feasible, but Quesanti is always chosen as top laner in every MSI, which leads him to think that Quesanti as mid laner has some flaws, or has been studied thoroughly, so no one chooses it.

Now seeing it suddenly, he suddenly became excited again.

"Oner's Mantis and Faker's Quesanti! What can I say! Is T1 going to use the ultimate move?"

From the sound of his excited voice, Guan Zeyuan had no idea that he was slandering others.

And Faker is now ready to go, massaging his neck in front of the camera, moving and relaxing, without realizing that a classic game that will be recorded in the history of LOL is about to begin.

The camera is locked on Faker.

Faker, the devil of League of Legends, stared at the computer screen.

No one can influence his mentality, even he himself does not feel nervous before the game starts.

As calm as a stagnant pool of water, Faker has looked down on no less than several "genius mid laners" with the same mentality.

Maybe this is a desperate situation.

What desperation means to Lee Sang-hyuk is self-evident.

"Is this the only fight?! Looking at Faker's expression, could it be that..."

Guan Zeyuan was a little worried.

He has commented on Faker's games several times and has also witnessed Faker's comeback from desperate situations through data.

Every time he counterattacks, Faker's expression becomes particularly calm, just like now.

It looks like this Korean LOL genius is going to show his prowess again.

"See if it's Brother Li from Desperate Situation..."

Miller smiled awkwardly and continued.

The audience was nervous.

Because they don't want to watch another domestic mid laner die at the hands of Faker.

At this moment, the camera reverses.

Falling on Jiang Huai's face.

Compared to Faker, Jiang Huai's face is so young, handsome and heroic that people doubt whether he has enough experience to compete with veteran players and whether he can keep his nerves tense at the last moment of the game.

"WBG's last move..."

"Annie, Tsar, Jace, Cannon...what to choose?"

"What is boyo's choice...?"

“Starforge Dragon? Aurelion Sol?” Seeing that this hero was mentioned all the time on Weibo, Guan Zeyuan was a little bit unconvinced.

"Do you really want to play? Thor? Is it locked? It's locked!"

Play it for real!

WBG won’t play tricks on you. If they say they will play new things, then they will play new things.

The audience was completely stunned by the Dragon King's lock.

In fact, not only the audience, but even the commentators and some professional anchors outside the live broadcast room were surprised to see this choice.

"How can he really be the Dragon King?!"

I didn't understand the posture at first.

"Can we play this dragon now?" letme expressed doubt.

"It seems to be better after the changes, but I haven't seen anyone play it." Shuijing said, "Rookie has played it, and the fpx small mid laner and the one called care seem to have played it, but they are not very good."

"Don't choose it! This hero has no damage!"

The stain is urgent.

I didn’t see anyone playing Dragon King in the 2023 MSI.

In the lpl spring season, those who played Dragon King were beaten by others.

One is that the damage is not enough, and the other is that the damage is indeed not enough.

It's just a scratch. Although it seems that the overall damage is not low, but in a team fight, one big move can't even remove a layer of blood from the opponent.

"Choosing this Dragon King at this time... should be a system, ready to drag it to the later stage."

Miller is still guessing.

No one noticed that Faker's expression was subtle.

Yes, that's right.

The Dragon King is very effective against the mid-lane Quesanti.

It's not just restraint on heroes, but also restraint on gameplay.

Why is the mid laner Quesanti disgusting?
It's because the mana consumption of his QE is too low.

In the early stage, when magic resistance did not come out, no mage's damage could hit him, and no hero could push the line past him.

He is not afraid of consumption or fighting, so the mid laner Quesanti can walk sideways in the middle lane and do a lot of things.

However, the Dragon King is different.

The revised skills of Dragon King are designed for pushing the line.

In the early stage, Quesanti couldn't touch him, and after he pushed the line, he directly used the E skill to roam around, and Quesanti couldn't keep up at all.

To put it bluntly, as soon as Jiang Huailong was chosen, Faker's Quesanti immediately became stupid.

But fortunately, Faker is not too desperate.

He now hopes that Jiang Huai will not play the Dragon King. In this way, once he uses up all the blue in the early stage, he will be able to firmly grasp the line control.

"What do you mean, Lao Jiang?"

The audience has already started to prepare to see the special skills.

Although Jiang Huai had indeed not practiced much with this Dragon King, he was forced to do it. For now, it would not be a good idea not to try it.

No one can play with the same lineup until death in a big competition. Jiang Huai understands this very well, so he specially prepares a few more heroes for himself.

Now that you have it, just enjoy it.

Anyway, Dragon King is a development hero, so there is no need to rush to gain an advantage.

"Go WBG!"

“Come on T1!”

Accompanied by the cheers of the audience, the competition finally officially began.

Both parties adhered to the principle of mutual honesty and no promiscuity in the early stage and passed the ordinary early development period.

Then Jiang Huai took advantage of the opportunity when Faker was not going home and spit on him from half health to low health with the Dragon King's Breath.

Faker had no choice but to use his flash and retreat. He lost a flash, but also caused Jiang Huai to lose several soldiers.

"Still so oily..."

Jiang Huai smiled, not understanding why Faker was trying so hard to develop.

If Faker doesn't work hard for the four little players of T1, they will really be eaten to death by these little Dengs.

Although Faker knew that his desperate move was crazy and he almost lost the first blood, it also allowed Jiang Huai to eat ten fewer soldiers and reach level 6 later.

In this way, he can reach level 6 earlier after the next wave of TP comes out.

Quesanti's flash is useless.

His EW rotates quickly, so it doesn't matter whether he has flash or not.

With this idea in mind and this understanding of the hero, after FakerTP came back, he wanted to directly withstand Jiang Huai's damage, push the line, and then immediately go to support.

However, what he could never have imagined was.

Jiang Huai reached level 6 later than him but used his ultimate to force out his E and W skills.

"?"

Faker was stunned for a second and didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.

As a result, the sudden appearance of King Ning and ON the next second made him immediately understand Jiang Huai's intention.

"No flash! Faker didn't flash and was turned into a sheep! Zhao Xin stabbed him, is the damage enough?!"

Guan Zeyuan's voice was so loud that everyone thought Faker was going to die.

But Faker's reaction was exaggerated to the point of being scary. He first used his ultimate on Zhao Xin to reset his own small skills, and then called on Oner for help.

oner rushed over immediately, and he refreshed EW to quickly distance himself from Jiang Huai and others.

"Running so fast?"

King Ning was shocked. This was really unexpected.

The next second, Jiang Huai directly activated his E skill and sprayed Q tracking breath.

The range of the Dragon King's breath is very long, and Quesanti can take damage along the way.

However, as a late-game hero, the current Dragon King's damage is still not enough to kill Quesanti, and he can only watch Faker use his E skill to run away.

"Oh, what a pity."

Stance said.

"This thing is too fleshy." Brother Shuijing tilted his head and complained.

This is not the first time that people have expressed surprise at Quesanti's tankiness. These professional anchors always exclaim in amazement every time, which is really funny.

This is why so many LCK players play Quesanti as a mid laner.

It's not just because he is too flexible. Another reason is that his tolerance for mistakes in the middle lane is too high, just like the mid laner Kled in the Intercontinental Championship.

This thing is impossible to kill, and it's impossible to destroy the middle lane tower. It can still be useful in team fights, but its main function is to be disgusting.

Riot's balance is not in place, and the most intuitive reaction is that some things in the professional arena are quite disgusting.

The current version is not favorable for the Dragon King, and the damage of the Dragon King in the early stage is not enough, so there is a reason why Jiang Huai did not use flash to chase deep this time.

He knew that he couldn't kill Quesanti, so he drove him away just to make him come back again to lose some soldiers, and by the way, he could eat the plating and go home.

Once your first piece of equipment comes out, it will be very comfortable to fight against Quesanti.

Later on, you can basically keep suppressing Quesanti as long as you want.

Sure enough, just as Jiang Huai had expected, after Faker's Quesanti was defeated in this wave, he had no money to buy magic resistance when he returned home. He was increasingly unable to keep up with the rhythm and was finally dragged to death by Jiang Huai in the middle lane.

As the saying goes, one can defeat the enemy without fighting. Jiang Huai had already gotten rid of this stupid black uncle and was ready to roam to the bottom lane to get his first double kill in this game.
