First up was HooN, the head coach of Team WE last year, who became an assistant coach after Redmi's arrival and actually worked as an analyst.

(Go to the WE official blog for a long time, there is no analyst in the 2017 summer game roster, I can only let HooN coach fill this position, I posted it in this chapter)

HooN turns on the projector and displays the material he wants to present on the screen.

"We have to pay attention to the MVP support Max, who is a very thoughtful player and likes to go around to support his teammates on other paths."

HooN said a word, and Jun Ri, the translator of the team on the side, translated a sentence, and Jun Ri, who is a Korean ethnic group, spoke with a little Northeast dialect of joy.

"He used a total of 16 different support heroes in 50 matches in the spring," he said, looking up at the dozens of players in the audience, "You can look at the big screen, this is how he uses heroes." (See this chapter.)

Lin Ran felt his scalp tingle when he looked at the long piece of data.

The spring version is very fixed, and the support slot is basically the output hero of the S6 World Finals plus some of the front row that can produce the artifact [Redemption].

In this case, the world's top support wolf only used 7 heroes in the spring game, and the prophet even used only 5 heroes to complete the spring game. (See this chapter on the use of Wolf Spring Match heroes.)

This Max uses a full 16 support heroes, which can only be described as terrifying.

"His hero pool is not only the regular support in the arena like Hammerstone Tamlulu, but also the strange heroes like Sain, Fire Man, and Wickz......"

"He's even used Sindra and Spiders to play the support position."

The contestants exchanged heads and ears, and the sound of rustling sounded in the audience.

This Max's hero pool stands out as an outrageous.

The players know that this wide pool of heroes gives the team more possibilities for tactics.

HooN gave an example on stage:

"For example, the MVP is on the red side, first snatched Sindra, and the blue side wanted to use the little fishman for counterpoint restraint, but as a result, people shook Sindra to the auxiliary play, and finally gave the middle single choice Cassadine to play - a hero like the little fishman has no way to take Cassadine, and the BP advantages and disadvantages will be reversed instantly."

HooN toggles the screen, and another image appears on the screen, "This is the hero usage win rate of the MVP mid-laner Ian Spring Tournament." (See this chapter for the Ian2017 Spring Tournament hero win rate)

"He has used a total of 12 Sindra games, with a win rate of 83%, and his own Sindra proficiency is naturally very high, on the other hand, it is also because the support hero pool is covering for him - after the opponent finds out that they can shake Sindra to the support position, they rarely choose to restrain Sindra in the middle lane, but mainly use panacea heroes such as Clockwork and Victor, which makes Ian very comfortable with the lane."

"The support pool of swinging heroes makes it a little difficult for us to face the BP of MVP, and we have to block Sindra, a hero who can swing, and give our own midlaner a hero with line rights," HooN analyzed reasonably, "and then target the style of play. ”

"Their double C-mid lans and bottom lane Maha output capabilities are mediocre." HooN projected another graph on the screen, which recorded the output histogram of the MVP double C, which ranked in the middle of the Korean league. (See this chapter)

It's really a big problem.

The support hero pool can get a comfortable choice of heroes for their own double C, and the fact that they can only deal mid-league level damage in this situation is already telling.

"Most of the MVP's playbook is also about support," HooN continued, "and they like to have support in conjunction with the mid lane and jungler to get kills or capture the Canyon Vanguard and open up the economic gap early on. ”

"Kind of like YM?" Xiao Ming suddenly spoke.

HooN nodded after hearing Junil's translation, "It's a castrated version of YM." ”

When I said this, everyone understood.

Now YM's main tactics also rely on the three-person linkage of Liu Qingsong, Xiaotian and Lin Ran, from the bottom lane four packs two to the canyon pioneer tactics, the three of them are indispensable existences.

Although YM and MVP look similar, the individual strength of the players determines the difference between the two teams.

Since their debut, Lin Ran and Jack have been among the best in the league in terms of output ability, and they can often hit explosive damage when they get the position advantage.

This is a capability that MVP Double C does not have.

"So our general idea is: ban Sindra and take the hero of the middle route; Limit the MVP's auxiliary roaming in the lane period, and then use personal strength to suppress the opponent's double C. HooN continued.

"After the spring game and our training camp these days," he said, glancing at the players in the audience, "RNG is better suited for MVPs." ”

"Your bottom lane is fierce and can tie down the opposing support," HooN looked at Uzi, "as long as it drags smoothly into the teamfight period, the weakness of the MVP's lack of double-C output ability will be exposed." ”

Uzi nodded vigorously.

Alignment is a stunt that he is proud of, and he is confident that he can match Xiao Ming to suppress the MVP's bottom lane combination with the lane.

"There are some notable points about the first-tier setup of the MVP team...... "HooN and Junil got up and left, "and that's up to the RNG analysts. ”

Due to the tight schedule, the analysts on the LPL co-coaching staff were only able to split the entire research task about the MVP team and divide the work to analyze a part of each person.

RNG analyst Dog Eight is a skinny crooked man who has been working with Brother Feng before, and his level is quite good. (Tip: He won the 2017 Analyst of the Year award in the real world)

Dog Eight once scored 2300 points in the US server during the S2 period, ranking in the top ten of the US server, and his high rank is a real outlier among analysts.

Most of the analysts are math professionals like Su Cheng, who is a diamond and has some understanding of games and competitions.

After all, being a high-level analyst is not a must-have ability, and it doesn't make much of a difference to their data analysis capabilities.

However, in terms of tactical analysis ability, high-ranking analysts still have an advantage after all.

"I flipped through the video in the past two days and found that they have no line power in the middle, and there are two more common tactics at the first level......" he turned on the projector, "First of all, there is no advantage in the jungler. ”

"Their support will look at the lower river, while the jungler will choose a misplaced top half of the game."

"Once the lower river vision sees that there is an invasion of the opposite jungler, the MVP's jungler will choose to change the opponent's upper half of the jungle, which allows even if he does not have the right to line in the early middle lane, he can also ensure the development of the jungler."

Gou Basheng paused, and continued, "This tactical solution is to change the wild area with him at the second level, and then help push the line in the middle lane, and then force the bottom lane to pack four and two. ”

He coughed lightly, opened the teacup and took a sip of strong tea, he looked a little heavy with dark circles under his eyes, thinking that he hadn't rested well in the past few days.

"The second way to play is that the jungler has an advantage in the position, and the support is a hard support with a control skill......"

"They will invade the lower half of the area in a group, and use the control of the auxiliary to try to force out the opponent's skills or seize the BUFF," Dog Hachi looked at the YM crowd in the audience, "This is similar to YM's thinking, forcing the opponent to change the jungle area to start, so that their jungler can control the lower half of the liberation support, and then the wild assistant linkage to help the midlaner." ”

Lin Ran nodded.

Although the MVP poses no threat to them, and the LPL co-coaching staff will do their best to keep YM out of the MVP, he is still listening.

YM is now very malleable, and in Lin Ran's view, there is more than one way of thinking that adapts in the early stage.

After all, Gouba is a well-known and excellent analyst in the industry, and there are not many opportunities to hear him talk about tactics, so it is good to learn something.

"The solution to this tactic is to assist to move first, because of the change of wild area, you go down the road first and go online, and naturally push the line first to grab the second."

"Assist the second to drill directly into the wild area, insert the eye at the opposite BUFF, judge the specific position of the opponent's jungler through this eye position, and then you can choose to continue to press the line or put the line to defend the tower......"

Uzi kept these ideas in mind, and as long as the MVP's initial tactics were seized by them, they would give RNG a huge early advantage, which was likely to affect the direction of the game.

"Time is limited, and that's all I can do," Gouba rubbed his eyebrows, "and then YM analyst Orange will talk about her research on MVP line transfer ideas. ”

Su Cheng walked quickly to the stage with long legs, and she opened the slides in the USB flash drive.

"If the MVP has a disadvantage in the early stage, they will choose to change the line in time to stop the loss......" she said with a video of the MVP playing against LZ.

"In the early stage of this game, the MVP jungler mantis was targeted by the LZ blind monk, and the top laner Rambo was also suppressed by Khan Jace very uncomfortable, and in the case of no head in the early stage, the MVP fell behind by 500 economy in 7 minutes."

Su Cheng continued to play the video, "We can notice that at 7 minutes and 17 seconds, MVP chose to go back to the city on the lower road, and then changed the line to rush to the upper road, while Rambo prepared to go back to the city under the tower and turned to the lower road. (See this chapter.)

"They had an unexpected line change with Rambo, LZ obviously didn't react, and Khan couldn't even make up for it when he was forced directly down the road by the MVP......

"Then the LZ jungler and the support two were forced to go to the upper lane to protect Jace, but during this time, Rambo and the praying mantis in the wild area, which had been transferred to the lower lane, were developing rapidly."

"Khan Jeta returned to the city after the grass, and also wanted to change the line to go to the opposite Rambo," Su Cheng took the pen and circled the curtain in the air, "but the MVP assistant made a look here before and saw the movement of Khan returning to the city." ”

"Then they chose to switch the line back again and let the duo continue to press Jace."

Su Cheng continued to play the video, "Khan found out that he had been tricked, and he went back to the city in the lower tower and rushed to the upper road. (See this chapter.)

"And the combination of Rat King and Greila can only run from the top to the bottom on foot," Su Cheng's voice was clear and sassy, "but this time and again, Jace has not developed for a long time, and the MVP's Rambo Mantis pair of Ueno not only completed the mending knife overtake, but also led the opponent by one level of experience." ”

"At this time, the game has been going on for 10 minutes," Su Cheng finished playing the video of the intercepted game, and the final picture was fixed at 10 minutes and 07 seconds, "In less than 3 minutes, the MVP went from being 500 behind the economy to surpassing 300, earning an economic difference of 800 gold coins, just through two line transfers." (See this chapter.)

"......Shh ”

Su Cheng nodded, "What's more, they dragged out the strong period when Jace had just come out of the jagged dagger, and the blind monk didn't find a suitable gank opportunity. ”

A group of pros whispered in the audience, discussing the MVP's unconventional line-changing tactics.

"It's not unjust to lose." Sapphire Blue was a little convinced, and he recalled the painful memory of being hit on the head by MVP assistant Sein yesterday.

Lin Ran thought about it, he felt that this kind of line change tactic YM could also be used, and planned to wait for the end of the continental competition to go back and try to practice.

"This is also the reason why the MVP Double C has average personal strength, but he can win the third place in the LCK Spring Tournament," Su Cheng said while rewinding the video, "Their operational ability is not inferior to the top teams in the LCK." ”

"Let's take a look at how to crack this line change idea, everyone pay attention to the time," Su Cheng played the video from the beginning, "The time point for MVP to return to the city is 7 minutes and 17 seconds, and it is ...... at this time"

Uzi's eyes lit up, "Artillery line." ”

"Yes, the fifth artillery line will reach the center of the lower road at this moment and engage the enemy in an exchange of fire." Su Cheng's reaction to Uzi was not surprising, the professional ADC was much more sensitive to the line of soldiers than other positions, not to mention Uzi, who could spare time to replenish the knife in a group.

The professional players in the audience can also understand the reason why the MVP returned to the city to change the line at this time - because the gun carriage has rough skin and thick flesh and can resist a lot of damage, the opponent's duo will push the line slowly, and Rambo can still eat this wave of soldiers when he arrives at the bottom road.

"This gun carriage provides protection for Rambo to eat soldiers, but at the same time it can also be used by us." Su Cheng pulled out his marker pen and pulled the summoner's canyon whiteboard on the side.

"The duo should not follow the line change, but push the small soldiers into the defense tower, and the jungler will move closer at this time, but go directly to the grass behind the side of the next tower and croak," Su Cheng drew a road map on the whiteboard, "Once the opposite single is online, directly 3 packs and 1 will cross him." ”

"After killing people, the three of you will continue to dismantle the tower," Su Cheng thought quickly and increased his speaking speed, "At this time, your own top order will eat the artillery driver for 7 minutes and 17 seconds, and then go to the road to stay in the grass for a while, it doesn't matter if you lose a little soldier, just wait for your teammates to tear down the tower and send money." ”

"Since you didn't change the line on the road, you saved some time, and the progress of dismantling the tower was naturally faster; And the own side has already made up for the artillery carl, and if the other party demolishes the tower, it will face a shortage of troops, and it is not surprising that we will definitely be able to get a blood tower. ”

Su Cheng stroked from the first tower on the lower road to the middle one tower, "and then turned to push the middle tower." ”

"Plus the middle laner, there are four of you, and the defense force in the middle lane on the opposite side is not enough to resist you......" Her voice was sonorous: "If the opponent's duo wants to continue to forcibly demolish the upper road tower, you can join forces to demolish the middle tower; If the opposite duo rushes back to the middle lane, we will earn a blood tower in this wave of confrontation. ”

"The team economy obtained from the demolition of the tower will not be lost," Su Cheng closed the marker, looked at the rough lines drawn by her on the summoner's whiteboard in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction, "On the contrary, it can make the opponent fall into a passive situation." ”

"That's all for the analysis of the MVP team," Su Cheng concluded, "and it can be summed up in three steps:

One is to ban Sindra on BP to prevent the opposite middle assistant from swinging and striving to get the hero of the middle lane;

The second is the first-level design at the beginning of the game, and the opposite side wants to ensure the development of the jungler due to the loss of the right to the middle lane, and there is a high probability that the two routines mentioned by the dog eight analyst will be adopted, and you can target them;

Finally, if there is no mistake in the execution of the first two steps, the opponent will fall into a disadvantage in the early stage, and it is very likely to execute the line change strategy at 7 minutes, and then just do what I said. ”

"In this way, by 10 minutes, you will most likely get an economic advantage of about 3K," Su Cheng shrugged his shoulders and laughed, "What should you do next without us teaching, right?" ”

"This is basically playing with open cards," Xiaohu smiled evilly, "If you can still lose, then I will retire on the spot." ”

Thunderous applause echoed through the huge room.

This is the player's recognition of the efforts of the LPL joint analyst team.

HooN, Gouba, and Su Cheng worked together to completely lock all the rhythm points in the first ten minutes of the MVP, completing the whole process from playing suona to the crematorium, and sending the MVP away happily.

The analysts of three of the LPL teams have already shown their skills, and only IG analysts have not moved.

It's not that the other three people engage in small groups to exclude their colleagues, mainly because the level of IG analysts is a bit green.

In terms of the level of data analysis, he used MATLAB software to pick up the raw data of the curve graph, and Su Cheng, a freshman, was at a higher level than him.

In terms of the level of tactical analysis, he is a gold man who has just gotten out of terminal cancer, and it is difficult to see the troop line, let alone analyze tactics.

When the four analysts arrived in Kaohsiung for a meeting that day, the other three were shocked.

I didn't expect there to be such a mixed person, and the BP data of the LCK league still has to ask them, it's completely a stretching party. (Interested readers can search for 'IG Gold Analyst' on their own, and Tieba Hupu Zhihu has his detailed deeds)

Su Cheng, Gouba, and HooN are all fighting about the dark circles under their eyes that they have worked hard day and night.

The three of them combined and sent him to several head coaches to take charge of simple data collection and use as a logistics function.

Therefore, IG analysts were not involved in the whole process of this tactical research work on the MVP team.

The head coaches of the four teams took the stage in turn to review the video of today's semi-finals and point out the problems of the players.

By the time all this was done, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

The players continued to play two sets of ranked positions before going to bed, while the coaching staff went to another empty room to begin discussing BPs and playing order.

Several people looked tired and had a light in their eyes.

"Tomorrow they will definitely not be the first to play SKT and MVP, these are their two strongest and weakest teams," White Crescent said his thoughts, "I think the probability of LCK coming out of Samsung or KT will be higher." ”

"Then YM can't be the first to play, I think it's better to let you play SKT." Brother Feng took off his glasses and gently pinched the bridge of his nose to soothe his face.

"I think let's let YM be the first to play," Han Yi had a different opinion, "If nothing else, they will hide the MVP until the end, we let YM win one game first, and then fight in the middle two games, even if they lose, they can let RNG play MVP and drag it to the fifth game." ”

WE coach Hongmi relied on Junri's translation to listen to their words, and pondered for a long time before speaking, "They will definitely go to Samsung in the first game, this is the most stable team in South Korea except SKT, and it will basically not roll over against weak teams, but the line is not high, and it is difficult to defeat the strong with the weak." ”

Several coaches looked at each other.

"Then we'll go first tomorrow?" The white crescent asked a colleague.

Han Yi and Redmi nodded, "Let's try to win one game, so that if the fourth RNG directly matches the MVP, we can send the LCK away." ”

"It's decided first," Brother Feng picked up the BP data file on the side, "Have you read the mid-lane BP data of KT?" Their investment in the middle of the fat general's ban seems to be a bit too large......" (see picture)

"Yes, his back injury has caused his form to decline very severely," White Crescent has studied KT as a potential opponent in the midseason for some time, and naturally knows everything, "KT now relies more on smeb and deft ......"

Several people discussed tomorrow's BP strategy, made suggestions for their brother teams in the same division, and even used BP simulators to play the role of LCK coach and play BP games with the LPL side.

At four o'clock in the morning, the door of the room was gently pushed open, and Ichimura quietly walked in with a video camera, and the first thing he saw was the empty Red Bull canisters scattered all over the room.

The four coaches and an interpreter were still discussing the possibility of bringing Shan Shen into the game with a big move.

He didn't speak, just took a picture and exited the room.

The four coaches were too excited, and they didn't notice the sudden visit of a village.

It wasn't until Brother Feng confirmed that there was no problem on the BP simulator that everyone stretched and turned off the computer.

"If I win the final tomorrow, what will I eat?" White Crescent asked suddenly.

"You can go to the Liuhe Night Market, there are a lot of special snacks in it." Brother Feng has a soft spot for hometown food.

"It's too unideal to go for a snack after winning the final, right?" Junri was a little disgusted, he rolled on the soft bed, "How about the hot pot?" ”

"Are there any better Hunan restaurants here?" Han Yi yawned, "I want to eat chili now." ”

"What do you think of Redmi?" The white crescent moon closed his eyes, and the excitement of the energy drink dissipated, and he now felt that his eyes were a little sore.

Redmi leaned on the head of the bed, and after hearing Junil's translation, he smiled and said in a stiff Chinese: "Barbecue, Wo Yao Korean barbecue ......"

The night of four o'clock in the morning has passed, and at 5:19 in the morning, the first rays of sunshine in Kaohsiung shine on the earth. (Bar prevention tips, see the picture for the sunrise time in Kaohsiung)

On July 9, the decisive battle officially began.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall was full of more than 2,000 seats.

"Welcome to the live ...... of the final stage of the 2017 Asian Confrontation Championship"

Today's commentary is as usual Doll Miller and remembers.

"Today's match is highly anticipated and touches the hearts of our LPL audience, and this is a good opportunity to prove the first division......"

Miller was halfway through his sentence when he heard the information from the director.

"The two sides submitted the teams that played in the first game," he said word by word, "We in the LPL region chose YM to be the pioneer of the first game, and the LCK side sent ...... Three Star Clan! ”
