Chapter 129: The Art of EDG and the Young Emperor Jean
Just after the beginning of spring, it was warm and cold.
The magic capital has four distinct seasons and is a typical subtropical monsoon climate.
The north wind at the beginning of February was wet and cold.
On Friday, February 6, the fourth week of the LPL Spring Tournament officially began.
The highlight of the day was the 1 p.m. opener, EDG vs. GT.
In contrast to EDG, the promoted Lspl player did not perform as well as he would have liked in the 2015 Spring Split, and is currently 10th in the league and still a long way from qualifying for a playoff spot.
There is no shortage of talented players in this GT.
LetMe, the top laner, currently plays Rambo, Big Tree and Mondo, which is very stable. Jungler Danger, known as the pig butcher. Mid-laner Xiaohu, with strong ability to line and excellent sense of wandering. AD player Tale and support Shen Meng are long-time partners, both of whom have helped GT teams achieve triple jumps in one season.
It is believed that these young GT players will grow up one day. However, in the face of the current EDG, in terms of immediate combat power, GT basically has no position to match EDG.
Therefore, even the calm and cautious Abu, at the instigation of the factory director, once again agreed to a bold attempt.
To the surprise of thousands of audiences at the Tiandi Performing Arts Center and countless viewers in front of the screen, EDG presented a new lineup at one o'clock in the afternoon.
God and XIU, who are far ahead in the MVP standings, the strongest top laner at the moment, actually brought AD heroes like skateboarding shoes to the road in the 2015 LPL professional arena.
This kind of artistic approach made the audience both excited and confused, and made everyone look forward to the competition.
Many show fans know that in this week's national costume rank, Xiu'er and the factory director played a lot of skateboarding shoes on the road, and even caused fans to follow suit.
However, the vast majority of people think that it is just Xiu'er's relaxation and adjustment in the rank.
Unexpectedly, just a few days later, Calista landed in the professional arena in the hands of God and XIU.
There is no doubt that this is a huge attempt and a lot of risk, and the rank team is completely different from the professional team that the five people have been communicating with.
On the LPL official commentary seat, Miller, the on-the-spot commentator, said in front of the screen in surprise:
"Skateboarding shoes are indeed flexible and have escape skills, but the hero itself is brittle after all, and the upper route is easy to be targeted by the jungler. Moreover, if you choose skateboarding shoes on the road, the entire lineup lacks a front row that can stand and provide control, and the thickness and collocation of the lineup will inevitably be uneven. Although the ability to suppress the single line on the road is extremely strong, the risk is also relatively large. What effect EDG can play, we have to watch the game to know. ”
Today's commentary with Miller is Long Hair, and he also made his voice heard before the game.
Show fans know that this guy with long hair is a senior Xiu Fu in the commentary industry.
"There is indeed a gambling mentality when skateboarding shoes go on the road alone, and this hero is difficult to operate, and many top players may not be able to master it well. Before this game, I watched a video of God and XIU using skateboard shoes in rank, and from my point of view, every operation of God and XIU's skateboard shoes is textbook level, and professional AD players are probably at the same level. ”
"Moreover, God and XIU's style of play has always been strong, and EDG is now also very accustomed to opening up the situation from the top lane and getting skateboarding shoes, I believe that with the strength of God and XIU, it can still play a suppressive effect, and then the factory director will start operating through the advantage of the upper road, and then connect Panw and Ashui Field on the lower road. If you think about it from this tactical point of view, skateboarding shoes on the road are also feasible. ”
Amid controversy and discussion on the Internet, the game began.
GT top single LetMe chose a hand that is better at Mondo, so that the emperor's anti-pressure thinking is simple and rude, using Q to make up the knife, and flat A is counted as my loss.
However, the game did not develop in the direction that Emperor imagined, the line was pressed by the knife to press the level, the jungler Ryk Sailai gank was squatted by the factory director keg, and the third-level skateboarding shoes got the red and blue Buff.
With the blessing of the blue buff, the skateboard shoes hit Mondo's teleportation with a Q skill in 8 seconds.
Then the skateboard shoes pushed the line to the bottom of the tower when Mondo Liang teleported, LetMe noticed something strange and planned to retreat, but the factory director cut off the road directly behind the tower, and the two cooperated to kill Mondo, and before it arrived in five minutes, it became purgatory on earth.
As the race progressed, the snowball on the road became bigger and bigger, and GT had to divide its troops to encircle and suppress the road.
In fifteen minutes, Xiaohu, Danger, and LetMe surrounded the skateboard shoes, and this wave of skateboarding shoes was killed without accident with the injuries of the three people.
However, the GT bottom lane duo was lost by EDG's four-man tower, Xiaolong, and defense tower.
Twenty-three minutes into the game, the scene erupted in loud exclamations.
At the river channel on the left side of the middle lane, God and XIU used the narrow wall near the middle lane at the entrance of the river to level A and passive, flexibly climbing back and forth over the wall, not only dodging the various skills of Mondo and the excavator, but also tying the two people into hedgehogs.
When it was determined that Mondo would die, the excavator made a hole in an attempt to escape to the limit. Calista not only pierced and killed Mondo with a precise Q skill, but also passed the spear on Mondo's body to the excavator.
With a tearing sound, the excavator in the earth was pumped up and dedicated his soul.
In the twenty-eighth minute of the game, GT had no choice but to surrender.
Probably affected by the first game, there was a problem with the mentality of the young GT players, and in the second game of BO2, there was a major mistake in the bottom lane coordination, Jklove's Delevingne got a double kill strongly, and after returning home to produce a wave of equipment, he skillfully cooperated with Liannan's hammer stone, not only slashing the opposite bottom lane again, but also killing the jungler together.
Delevingne killed all sides, and Ah Shui also shined in the professional arena.
LetMe still played Mondo in the second game, but without the help of the jungler, he didn't collapse as much as the previous game, and even when the factory director came to gank, LetMe actually retreated spiritually.
This made Li Zixiu suspicious, could it be that the emperor's passive attribute was triggered?
The gate of the void leads to the underworld, and a sheep comes to open the door of heaven.
All beings are equal?
Li Zixiu muttered in her heart, there are no sheep yet, and the young LetMe has not been tempered by various competitions. However, his talent for top-laner does exist.
The second game was faster than the first, and in front of many spectators, in just twenty minutes, this teenager named Jklove showed his talent wantonly.
In the last wave, because the barrel of the young man with the head of the pot inadvertently blew up the opponent's support, Ah Shui ended the game with a wave of four kills.
Looking at Ah Shui, who was killing in all directions, many team managers in front of the screen unconsciously covered their mouths with their hands.
Nima, how can EDG's first-year students be this virtue?
Both games ended with a big win for EDG, and the strength of the two teams was there, although the result was not surprising to everyone, but they still complained about EDG's shortcomings.
It's obviously the most exciting and beautiful game, but you can only watch it for the shortest time, and there is a little sadness.
The MVP of the second game was given to Ah Shui, although the MVP is very important to Lee Zi-so, and he will work hard, but this does not affect his blessing to Ah Shui.
Rubbing the little brother's hair, Li Zixiu did not hesitate to praise himself.
"Ah Shui, you are great, I am proud of you. If it weren't for the factory director who robbed you of your five kills, your performance today would be even more amazing. ”
The young man with the head of the pot glanced at Li Zixiu obliquely, but when he faced Ah Shui, the dead fish eyes filled with a smile.
"Ah Shui, I'm in for a treat tonight!"
Putting his arm around Ah Shui's shoulder, the factory director slapped his chest loudly.
"A treat?"
Abu, who was holding the notebook, strode over as if he had heard something terrible.
"Factory director, you have a treat, and I will go with you."
The young man with the head of the pot said angrily: "No need, you are so busy, and besides, we don't drink." ”
Abu propped his chin in one hand: "This is also part of the job, and I happened to discuss with you how to deal with LGD tomorrow." ”
"That's a tough bone......
