Chapter 542: The Dust Settles
The player information on both sides of the game has been passed to the hands of the three commentators, and after the official BAN selection began, the commentators did not stop for a moment to explain the seemingly bland but actually undercurrent of the ban selection stage.
"GHG really came prepared, they banned the barrel. In fact, the damage is good when the barrel is in a team battle, and the essence lies in the formation-breaking effect of the ultimate move and the flexibility of the E skill pursuit and retreat, and if you do it properly, it is easy to achieve an unexpected advantage in the game. ”
"That's right, I just saw on the information that Xiao Xiaoshuo of the Black Flag team is very proficient in this hero, and he is even recognized as the world's No. 1 wine barrel by a number of high-end players in the world server. ”
"You must know that many people like to call themselves the first in the national service to attract the attention of others, but many master players actually don't admit it, Xiao Xiaoshuo's world's first wine barrel is not his complacency, let alone the name added by other video highlights, his barrel can be recognized by the gods standing at the top, it is enough to see how terrifying this hero is in his hands!"
"Now that the barrel has been sealed by the opponent before the game starts, will Xiao Xiaoshuo take out his famous blind monk who moves the world? Let's wait and see....."
Wang Xiaoshuo is the most important core of the Black Flag team, as the captain and also as a jungler, the command of the team and the burden of driving the rhythm of the team are on him, and from the previous games, a large part of the reason for the Black Flag team's victory in every game must be attributed to him.
According to the information, Wang Xiaoshuo's three best heroes are wine barrels, blind monks, and poodles, followed by praying mantis and widow makers.
Team GHG is a team that is not as fierce as a tiger in the early stage, and because of this, the Black Flag team will avoid their strong period and choose an early lineup to defeat GHG in one fell swoop to win the game before the mid to late game.
Since it was time to play in the early stage, the lineup of the Black Flag team was quickly selected, and there was hardly any drag.
They are the top laner Pan Sen, the jungler blind monk, the middle laner Enchantress, and the bottom lane is a combination of male guns and piano girls.
The early lineup composed of these five people has a lot of damage and support ability is also very strong, whether it is a blind monk in the jungle or a top laner Pan Sen or a mid laner demon queen, when they play an advantage and their teammates do not play an advantage, they can help their teammates play an advantage, and this combination in the lower lane is very strong when playing 2v2, and the support speed of teammates is fast enough to easily form an encirclement to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.
GHG selected a typical 4-1 type mid-to-late game lineup, with mid-laner mechanical pioneers, top-laner big trees, jungler snowman riders, ADC big mouths, and auxiliary nurses.
The hero tree of Big Mouth is known as the "Moving Turret", and as long as there is enough output space, he can do terrifying tons of damage, and the idea of GHG is very simple, just one word - drag!
As long as the game is dragged to the later stage, their lineup will exert its power to destroy the world, once a team battle occurs, the four heroes keep the big mouth, create a perfect output space for the big mouth, and the team battle is basically stable.
"Who do you think will win?"
"I'm not sure, because we've never seen any of these overseas teams perform before, but I'm personally biased towards the Black Flag team. ”
"The personal strength of each player in the Black Flag team is not covered, and any one of them is a top god, and their captain Xiao Xiaoshuo has always been firmly on the throne of the world's first server, although he was squeezed down a few times, but it only took a few days for people to fight back. ”
"I feel the same way, this team is so invincible. Some time ago, wasn't the top laner of the boiling team just a mental collapse when he was beaten by the Black Flag team in the game?"
"Alright, alright. The game started, so let's concentrate on watching the game. ”
........
This match is the first time that League of Legends professional players have competed on this stage with overseas teams.
And in the group stage, both the Black Flag team and GHG were the "powerhouses" of the region they represented at that time.
Now the S1 season is the season dominated by Chinese players and American players, which can actually be seen from the ranking of the world server ranking.
Only the top 500 servers in the world are considered the strongest king ranks.
It stands to reason that these places will be shared by more than a dozen countries, but the reality is that Chinese players and North American players occupy nearly seventy percent of these high-level positions that symbolize the apex, and dozens of other countries have very few world service kings!
There are some weak countries in e-sports that simply don't have a world server king, and the top 1000 world server superheroes already represent the highest level of their domestic ranks.
It can be seen from this that in this League of Legends S1 series of events, the strength of the Huaxia Division and the North American Division is today and how terrifying the competition is.
Any team in these two regions that can make it to the S1 Finals has gone through countless battles, stepping on the corpses of other teams all the way through the encirclement.
There are no weak teams here, they are all the kings of their own divisions!
It is no exaggeration to say that even the slightly weaker teams in the finals in the Huaxia and North American regions are a few points stronger than the rest of the regions.
At the beginning of the game, the Black Flag team relied on the strength of their first-level regiment and directly invaded the enemy's wild area side of the middle lane.
GHG's goal is to drag the game to the late stages, and it is almost impossible to gain an advantage in this kind of game with their current roster, so no matter how much the black team provokes them, they will not rush to fight the black flag team at this time.
The Black Flag team didn't succeed in forcing the group, but they also directly knocked out the blue buff in their wild area in front of others.
2 minutes and 45 seconds after the start of the game, the second-level Pan Sen grabbed a move mistake of the opponent and flashed to kill the opponent's top laner tree with less than half health.
Five and a half minutes into the game, the Black Flag team went down the road to cooperate with the jungler to carry out a wave of tower crossing, although Wang Xiaoshuo died in the end, but he also successfully took the two heads of the GHG team on the bottom road.
The two sides fought back and forth in the early stage, on the one hand, they were like a poisonous snake that had been waiting for GHG to reveal their flaws, and on the other hand, they knew that the early heroes were weak, so they tried their best to defend while ensuring their own development as much as possible.
By 7 and a half minutes, the head-to-head ratio of the Black Flag team and GHG had become 7-3, and the economic lead was 1500+.
But the Black Flag team knew that this advantage in the early stage could not make up for their shortcomings in all aspects in the later stage, so in order to continue to expand their advantage, Wang Xiaoshuo and others teamed up with Pan Sen, who jumped down from the top single, to force the group on the lower road.
Even though the other party's Yeti Knight had already rushed to the lower lane to support him, he was still not fast enough, and by the time he appeared on the lower road, his two teammates had already turned into corpses, and even the defense towers on the lower road had turned into broken ruins.
0 for 2! plus a tower on the lower lane!
That's not all, the Black Flag team, which is still in a very healthy state, quickly went to the Little Dragon Pit to kill the Little Dragon after demolishing the GHG lower road tower, at this time the Black Flag team's economy has been ahead of 4000+, and GHG has only one thick-skinned tree that can stubbornly defend under the tower, and the Black Flag team's step-by-step pressing makes GHG even worse.
Black Flag uses an early-stage lineup, while GHG is late-game.
The Black Flag team got off to a good start in this game, taking advantage of the lineup and began to look for opportunities, but at the end of the game, the mechanical pioneer of the GHG mid-laner suddenly seemed to be a different person, constantly causing trouble for the Black Flag team and successfully delaying time.
From the current point of view, both sides are constantly showing the lower limit, such as the Black Flag team pushing the second tower Pansen was killed by the tower and forcibly changed the tower with his life, and the GHG team was a little aggrieved under the tower, but at the critical moment, he cared too much about the defense tower and was unwilling to retreat, and finally caught up in his heart.
But for the players at the time, they must have wanted to win the game so much that they made some undeserved mistakes.
As the game progressed, GHG's big mouth gradually grew, while the male gun, although more economically, was obviously not on the same level as the big mouth in terms of actual output.
However, fortunately, the Black Flag team is well developed, coupled with the advantages established in the early stage, so the Black Flag team still has a slight upper hand economically.
At about 25 minutes, although the black flag won the team battle on the road, one of the front teeth had been pushed off by the super soldier.
In the 31st minute, the Black Flag three-way was broken and became the disadvantage, and they could only retreat to the high ground due to their weakness in the later stage.
In the 34th minute, the Black Flag team was forced to open by GHG again in the Highland Tower, and the two sides exchanged a wave of skills, and the Black Flag was directly broken up in just a few seconds, and the whole line was defeated.
But at the most critical moment when the Black Flag team was about to fail, Wang Xiaoshuo suddenly turned around and touched his eyes to close the distance and kicked the three people away with an R flash, and the damage of the skill was very sufficient, and he successfully harvested 1/3 of the blood of the big mouth, and the nurse was also knocked away, unable to release the skill to add blood to the big mouth.
It was this Protector Foot that made the team battle situation suddenly reversed, and the Black Flag team finally defeated the opponent in this team battle victory that had been dragged to the middle and late stages, and finally won the victory.
Although there are many participating teams, there are only eight teams that actually enter League of Legends S1, and it is debatable whether it will increase to 16 teams in the future.
Over the course of two weeks, 8 teams will compete against each other in a BO1 double round-robin format, i.e. each team will play two non-consecutive BO1 matches against other teams in the same group.
The 8 teams will be divided equally into two groups.
There will be a total of 6 regular games in each group. In the event of a tie, there may also be an additional tiebreaker.
Everyone knows that in the group stage, there will always be strong teams and weak teams in each group, and in games like this, where the opponent is decided by lot, it is often the case that a good draw can multiply the odds of winning.
For example, a team whose strength belongs to the middle and upper reaches is drawn to a strong team in the first game, not only the odds of winning are pitiful, but once the game is lost, it is the legendary "unfavorable division", which will have a great impact on the morale of the entire team.
And what if they draw a weaker team?
I'm afraid the outcome is another matter, and it's almost a matter of time to win the race points.
In some small competitions and regional competitions, black-box operation of draws, buying off referees, and match-fixing generally only occur in small competitions and regional competitions that are slightly lower in level and slightly smaller in scale.
There is no black-box operation in a game of this level in the League of Legends S1 Finals, unless it is possible for the senior management of Aurora Games, otherwise it is difficult to buy the competition committee even if you have great powers and hundreds of millions of wealth.
GHG drew the black flag in the first game, which can only be said to be unlucky.
It can be seen from the commentary on the scene that although GHG lost the game, it was also because his opponent was the Black Flag team with the strongest overall strength in Group A.
Speaking of which, the Boiling Team temporarily has a lot to do with changing to the top and Black Flag teams.
In the finals of the Huaxia Division of the League of Legends S series, the two teams competing for the championship were Black Flag and Boiling.
The boiling team's top laner was frantically targeted by the black flag, so much so that it played a super ghost record of 1-8 in the game.
The tactics of the Black Flag team were originally just to use Boiling, an easy-to-get top laner, as a breakthrough point, and use the midfield linkage to break down the road, so that his crocodile would become a waste in the team fight.
But who knew that the top laner of the boiling team collapsed after being defeated, and he actually insulted his teammates on the spot, and finally suddenly stood up on the field and pointed at the black flag team on the opposite side and scolded, asking them if they wanted to make trouble.
Because of this young and ignorant second-order player was forced to terminate on the spot, due to his behavior and the practice of leaving the field directly, the referee directly announced the victory of the Black Flag team after communicating with the competition committee, and the player was also banned by the joint ban of Aurora Games and the Huaxia E-sports Association.
What are you kidding, I don't know how many minutes of the national live broadcast will be watching the Huaxia Division Finals, you are doing this kind of thing for me, such a bad nature Ye Le is not afraid to block him!
Originally, the decision of the organizing committee was to directly punish the boiling team for three months, but when such a rumor leaked out, the senior management of the boiling team immediately couldn't sit still, after all, if they were banned for three months, it would mean that they would completely miss the S1 finals, and the places that originally belonged to them would be handed over to other teams.
During that time, the boss of the boiling team, the son of a well-known domestic real estate developer, pestered Ye Le all day long and wanted to intercede for his team, his reason was nothing more than that this player was too young to control his emotions, plus this year was his first time playing, so it was inevitable that there would be some deficiencies in many places, and he couldn't hold his breath.
In the end, the boiling team succeeded in not being banned, but after the original top list was expelled due to various pressures from the outside world, their strength was greatly reduced, and at most they were only seven or eight percent of the usual level.
Now no one knows how many layers the boiling team can have to win against the South Korean team to get points, but there are no rules, and of course you must be punished for doing something wrong, otherwise wouldn't anyone in the professional arena be messed up?
Tomorrow is the game of the boiling team, but Ye Le will not come to the scene like today, he still has a lot of important things to deal with, such as the first "XGIMI mobile phone" and "Aurora Xuanlang AL e-sports professional game laptop" that Aurora Games is expected to sell at the same time in a week.
This is the first step for Aurora Games to officially start selling high-end smartphones, computers and other technology products, and it is also a particularly important step.
