In the evening of the same day, the first round of training matches after LPL settled in Kaohsiung officially started.

After dinner, everyone sat down in turn, and after logging into the account provided by Riot, Kassar pulled them into the battle room.

The three members of YM's coaching staff were also quietly discussing the BP and tactical arrangement of the training match.

A group of star players did not leave a place for them, and sat behind the YM players in the gaming chairs, which surrounded the area.

"Let's let go, let's ......" Su Cheng turned around and felt that he had nowhere to stay.

Lin Ran immediately reacted, "What are you doing behind me?" The projector will play the ...... of the OB viewing angle"

"No, duck, I'm going to see what you do from the first perspective." I don't want to leave at night.

A group of contestants nodded their heads.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Originally, everyone studied the video to watch the OB perspective, but now that they finally have the opportunity to see Lin Ran's first-person perspective in real time, how can they be willing to give up?

"Orange, you sit here, no BP doesn't need to stand." Lin Ran took away the keyboard on the gaming chair next to him.

Su Cheng took Lin Ran's arm and took advantage of his thin body to flicker and move among the professional players, and successfully sat on the chair next to Lin Ran.

Xiaohu looked at Su Cheng and then at Lin Ran, and suddenly showed an evil smile, which looked quite happy with his face.

"Let's put out the Lightning Wolf's Wild Auxiliary Double Tour System in this game, and try to see if we can win the hard game." The white crescent moon came to communicate with the players.

Several members of the team had no objections.

The Lightning Wolf Snake and Kasa's Nosuke linkage is unique and unbeatable in the Curved Division, and they have also beaten SKT with this system.

But the training match is actually trying out the lineup, grinding in their own style of play, and not letting out the opponent's best system, how do they know how to beat the opponent?

The lightning wolf thought so too.

Their coach Steak was even more decisive in his practice BP - banning five mid-laner heroes, Galio, Rock Sparrow, Lucian, Card and Enchantress.

Very targeted.

The pros behind him are not surprised.

This kind of 5ban midlaner is very rare in official matches, but it is a rarity in training matches.

The lightning wolf obviously wants to tell YM not to choose a mid-laner who can swim away with hard eating lines.

Everyone plays Yefu linkage, and the middle lane is the main brush, which is fair and reasonable.

Lin Ran saw that the lightning wolf was so targeted, and he no longer engaged in any black technology, and honestly took Victor to develop in the middle lane.

The training match lasted until 10 minutes.

The little tiger in the night had a solemn face, and the broiler was thoughtful.

The data of the opposite maple clockwork is 000 and the number of mending knives is 92, while Lin Ran's record is 001 and the number of mending knives is 105.

You must know that from 1 minute and 38 seconds for the first wave of troops to converge in the middle lane, until 10 minutes full, a total of 17 waves of troops were refreshed. (The eighteenth wave is a 10 minutes 08 seconds gun line)

There are 5 sports cars in the 17 wave lane, and the total number of creeps is 6*17+5=107.

On the basis that both sides return to the city once, the number of munitions of the maple is qualified.

But Lin Ran's mending knife is obviously beyond the cognition of this group of star players.

He didn't eat any of the wild monsters, and pushed the line to the river to help Xiao Tian kill Casa.

In this case, he only dropped two bins in ten minutes.

Xiaohu and Xiye glanced at each other, and there was a thought in their hearts - this son is terrifying!

As pros, they know how scary this number of removes can be.

The gap with MAPLE's 13 mending knives is converted into gold coins, which is close to a human head.

Ten minutes, just by relying on the right line of troops to reach this kind of economic disparity is quite terrifying.

They are very confused now.

People are not mending machines, and it is impossible to make a knife for a long time.

Besides, it takes time to get back to the city and wander around...... Lin Ran: How did he manage to only leak two bins?

The stronger broiler saw the details of Lin Ran's line clearly.

Dean Chicken discovers the truth.

Lin Ran's line play is not as fierce as he and Scout, but a bit like Lee Sang-hyuk today - the line is more stable, but there are a lot of small details.

One of them is the exchange of blood for the line.

Lin Ran's playing style is not fierce, it does not mean that he will only care about long-distance knife replenishment like Hou Ye or his predecessor EDG midlaner Ugus.

He is very particular about blood exchange.

In this game, Lin Ran is on the line, and every time he will take advantage of the fact that his own minions become remnants of blood, he will step forward to make a threatening gesture, so that the opponent will fall into a dilemma between mending the knife and exchanging blood.

This is actually a very simple laning trick that most passers-by will do.

But Lin Ran's is different from others.

He moves forward, but always between melee and ranged creeps.

There is also no main E [Death Ray], but first points out the second level Q [Siphon Energy] to exchange blood with the opponent at the limit distance.

You must know that although Victor's Q has an additional attack effect, the range is completely different from the basic attack, and it is a full 600 yards!

The clockwork basic attack distance of the other side was only 525, and Lin Ran stuck this 75-yard distance to exchange blood and disgust the opponent.

Clockwork couldn't touch him at all with a basic attack, and if he didn't want to be prostituted by Lin Ranbai, he could only use his skills to fight back.

If Clockwork only uses Q [Command: Attack], the damage can only be enough to shatter the shield generated by Lin Ran's siphon energy, and the blood exchange will definitely be a loss.

And by handing over QW together, you can use the slowdown to step forward and make up for a basic attack to deal thunder damage.

It's a small profit to exchange blood like this, and Lightning Wolf Zhonglan Maple does the same, but the problem comes again.

Since Lin Ran's previous position has always been in the lane, the QW of the clockwork is a range skill, which will not only consume Lin Ran, but also wear down the blood of the lane.

Lin Ran's Q [Siphon Energy] is a single damage, which will only attract the hatred of creeps.

Under the elimination of the other's strengths, the army line is naturally advancing towards Lin Ranfang.

Then Xiaotian came.

This is the tacit understanding that Lin Ran and Xiao Tian have cultivated since they lived together for a year and a half, and the two of them can be called very good and know what to do under what kind of line position - if the middle route is pushed out, Xiao Tian will enter the wild area to invade; If the mid lane line is close to the front of the YM tower, he will come to disgust the opposite midlaner.

This idea originated from the factory director, the child Youshen, and the stupid chicken, the three representative players of the father's flow jungler, who usually like to play like this to ensure that their big daddy is very comfortable.

This is Xiao Tian's advantage, he distributes his 'skill points' on each basic skill, and can change into various shapes with Lin Ran's ideas.

At this time, the wolf king Kasa obviously didn't have much research on Bao Daddy Liu, and when he saw the middle lane line pushing forward, his first reaction was to invade the small Amano area.

He was picked up by YM Nakano in his own midlaner before rushing to the middle of the lane.

But at this time, maple has been forced out of the experience zone by YM Nakano, and even the supplementary knife has missed two or three.

This rhythm is repeated twice, and the maple people can't stand it.

As soon as the line was pushed out, a garlic king arrived when he heard the wind, and a set of unreasonable skills forcibly grinded his blood; If the line of troops is not pushed out, Lin Ran will fight more and more unscrupulously, and Xiaotian's invasion will become more and more ferocious.

Under this style of play of the conjoined twins in the middle field, Lin Ran and Maple's mending knives will naturally widen the gap.

The second small detail found by the broiler who saw Lin Ran on the line was to go back to the city to deal with it.

With the world's top laning ability, he naturally knows that there are two options for mid-laner players to return to the city - after dealing with the wave of troops in front of the artillery carriage, or after the first to push off the artillery lane of the artillery carriage.

This can perfectly take advantage of the rough skin and thick flesh of the artillery trooper to resist the attack of the opponent's heroes and creeps, so that the opponent cannot perfectly push the line of troops into the defense tower, so as to minimize their losses.

This kind of time to return to the city is just to make yourself lose as little as possible, because the time of returning to the city and the position of the line of troops are affected, and in most cases, the player will still lose three melee soldiers. (Everyone should know this truth)

And Lin Ran's experience as a soldier was not missed, and he used a more ingenious method - the gun cart pushed back the line.

The wave of ordinary soldiers who arrived in the middle at 8 minutes and 08 seconds was perfectly used by Lin Ran.

He used up all his blue energy, and his ultimate [Chaos Storm] combined with E [Death Ray] to quickly advance the line of troops into the middle tower of the lightning wolf.

Lin Ran, who had eaten the lane, took two steps back, causing Maple to lose his vision, returning to the city to upgrade the Hextech core, then buying straw sandals and a bursting wand, and quickly rushing to the line.

It only takes 25 seconds for a hero with straw sandals to get from the spring to the middle route. (Actual measurement)

At this time, the 8 minutes and 38 seconds of the wave of artillery lines had reached the middle of the road.

Because Lin Ran quickly pushed forward a wave of soldiers before, when the artillery riders arrived in the middle lane, the previous wave of troops was still under the Lightning Wolf Tower.

Under the triple attack of the opposing heroes, creeps, and towers, the YM lane was quickly depleted.

The artillery drivers of both sides had only now converged in front of the Lightning Wolf Tower.

This was two seconds later than the expected convergence time, and due to the fact that the Lightning Wolf artillery line had already launched a lateral attack formation before, the YM side artillery line had no fire target.

In the case that the minions are not set on fire, the YM soldier line is evenly wet with rain and dew, and the lightning wolf creeps cannot be quickly consumed.

Therefore, when Lin Ran went online, he would not lose troops at all.

(What I wrote is quite easy to understand, right?,It's also a little trick that I figured out to push back the line without losing soldiers.,I see that those UP masters who do military line videos haven't noticed this detail...... ）

Of the two small soldiers that were missed, one was Lin Ran's own mistake in making up the knife, and the other was lost when supporting Xiaotian.

The remaining 105 soldiers were all pocketed by Lin Ran.

The broiler took these key details around in his mind, feeling like a monster in Lin Ran.

He thinks he can do all of this with a high degree of concentration that he is prepared.

But Lin Ran commanded while mending the knife just now; often disappear in the middle after pushing the lane, trying to put some pressure on the side opponents; Sometimes he also cuts the screen to observe other teammates, and even makes time to record the cooldown of the summoner skill on the opposite side.

Lin Ran, who was in charge of all the work, looked relaxed, and arranged everything as if he was strolling in a leisurely garden.

The broiler really discovered Lin Ran's horror at this time, originally he could only see Lin Ran's operation in the video from God's perspective, which was not intuitive; Now that he has switched to a first-person perspective, he has discovered a lot of details that he had previously overlooked.

The broiler feels that he can press Lin Ran on the opposite line, but in terms of the role he plays in the team, he is not as good as Lin Ran.

Is this what a world champion is capable of?

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and this feeling of being surpassed was not comfortable.

The broiler simply gave up watching the training match and turned on a computer to start practicing.

Just as he was leaving, a wave of battles broke out at the vanguard of the canyon, and the lightning wolf formation was loose and Xiao Tian seized the opportunity to forcibly start a team battle.

Although the time for the outbreak of this wave of team battles has not yet reached the time of Victor's power, Lin Ran relied on the extra burst wand to dominate the battle, winning three kills and leading the team to play 3 for 5.

Taking advantage of the situation, YM took advantage of the death of the lightning wolf to summon the canyon vanguard to push the two defense towers in the middle lane in a row.

Casa played GG decisively, signaling that the training game was over.

"Are you still fighting?" Lin Ran asked about the white crescent moon while exiting the game.

Seeing that Jack and Xiaotian were yawning, the white crescent moon thought for a moment, "Let's do this today, everyone got up early, and the estimated state is average." ”

"The next game is a training match between RNG and Samsung, so let's go first." It was RNG head coach Firefox who spoke.

The chairs behind Lin Ran made a clattering pulley sound, and a group of professional players ran to the RNG seats and began to watch.

Four of the LPL's head coaches are analysing the footage of YM's training match just finished.

The white crescent moon took the opportunity to learn from the scriptures.

His comprehensive ability is acceptable among LPL coaches, but his level is still a lot worse than that of a top coach like Redmi.

Redmi's humble request for advice from the white crescent moon was very unexpected.

For the first time, the white crescent moon Pegasus' BP-like approach to the Spring Race had caused him frustration, and now YM's strategy with the Canyon Vanguard had left him unable to find a solution so far.

He thought that in the LPL region, where local coach resources were extremely scarce, a big tree would finally grow.

But the more she thought about it, the more angry Redmi became.

You're all at this level, and you still come to me for advice with such a simple question?

I'm afraid you're not here to test me, right?

Red Mi naturally refused to admit defeat, and he had to prove his strength to the white crescent.

He treated the questions raised by the white crescent as a test paper and explained them in detail one by one.

The white crescent moon is like a treasure, holding a notebook full of knowledge points and planning to go back to the room at night to study slowly, he didn't expect that Hongmi really didn't hide it, what did he say.

It seems that Bobby's conversations with various managers and coaches before departure still have an effect, and the white crescent moon thought happily.

Lin Ran looked at Su Cheng, she was making a copy of the notes that the white crescent moon had stolen from the teacher, planning to keep a copy for herself.

The loose short sleeves and cropped pants can't cover her thin waist and long legs, and Lin Ran only looks pleasing to the eye.

Su Cheng turned on the photocopier, took out the hot notebook and returned it to the white crescent.

She noticed that Lin Ran was staring at her, "What are you looking at me?" ”

"Look at you, it's eye-catching." Lin Ran muttered quietly.

Now most of the people in the training room have gone to watch the RNG training match, and there is only one garlic king by his side.

"What are you talking about......" Su Cheng blushed and patted Lin Ran's head with the copied notes.

Xiaotian yawned a lot, and his eyes were bloodshot.

It seems that last night's gacot horror trip still left an indelible impression on him.

The team voice of the all-Chinese class RNG behind him was extremely noisy, and he shouted a sentence continuously as soon as he hit the group, for fear that his teammates would not hear him.

“ADADAD！” Uzi's shouts echoed in the three-hundred-square-meter training room, "Kill the Emperor Ruler and Kill the Emperor Ruler!" ”

"Look at me! Shi Senming, pay attention to my position! "The spicy fragrant pot that looks thinner than Xiaotian has a loud voice.

“Nice！！！” The RNG five let out an excited roar.

This voice was sent directly to Xiao Wu, who was obviously frightened, his body trembled violently, and he lay on his back on the gaming chair with his chest covered.

Firefox, who wore the same tactical eyepiece as Xiaohu, was very satisfied with the team.

This season's RNG has matured under his tutelage, and this game is a comfortable win against Samsung.

Poppy, who came to inspect in the evening, clenched his fists excitedly when he saw the results of the training match recorded on the whiteboard of the training match.

Won all four matches in the LPL training match, and it can be seen that the state is quite hot.

For the next two days, the four LPL teams set the same schedule.

Gather in the training room on time at 11 o'clock in the morning every day, and use the Taiwan server account to play the hot hand in the ranking.

Twelve o'clock to half past twelve is lunch time, and those who want to take a lunch break can go back to their rooms, and the rest of the people continue to practice in rank.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the four teams started training matches at the same time, and it is best to make an appointment with the LCK, and if you can't make an appointment, you can find Lightning Wolf or AHQ, which is really not good, and you can also practice in groups in pairs within the LPL.

After five training matches, it's time for dinner and review for the four coaches.

Due to the large number of training matches, the white crescent moon can only carefully select representative training match videos for analysis and summary.

The review ends at 10 p.m., and then it's qualifying time.

Lin Ran himself will play three rounds of ranking, and then go to wash and sleep.

In fact, the other players' biological clocks are 2 a.m. until bedtime.

But Lin Ran can't.

His biological clock was already fixed, and it was not good to forcibly change it in such a short period of time.

However, despite the long waiting time for the high score qualifying in the early Taiwan service, Lin Ran was still able to complete the guaranteed amount of seven sets of qualifying matches every day.

This boring and mechanical training lasted until July 6.

In the afternoon, everyone took a bus to the Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall, the host venue of the 2017 Asian Confrontation Tournament.

"I'll ...... it," Xiao Tian exclaimed subconsciously, and then his voice quickly deflated.

He thought that the venue for his match would have to be the most luxurious venue in the area, if not comparable to the Staples Center and the Rio Olympic Stadium.

Who would have thought ......

"This venue is so shabby?" Xiaotian muttered quietly, "Our children's palace there is bigger than this place!" ”

"Seriously, it's about the same size as the Super Brand Mall where we hold the regular season...... It's too shabby. Lin Ran looked sideways, and through the window, he could easily take in the whole picture of the venue.

Small, very small.

Lin Ran felt that the size of this stadium was not as large as the gymnasium of his high school, and it was inferior to the Jing'an Sports Center, where he had worked hard in the minor league before.

"Brother Hao, is the final also in this venue?" Jack asked.

Guo Hao, who was sitting in the front row, looked at the itinerary in his hand, "If nothing happens, the entire continental competition will be in this venue." ”

"This ...... Can it seat 2,000 people? Liu Qingsong was also a little shocked.

"Be content, it's really not good for LOL development here," Guo Hao explained to them, "The league doesn't even have a decent sponsor." ”

"Do you think there are alliances like LPL everywhere?"

"They're not going to run a competition and end up messing themselves up, right?" Lin Ran joked with a smile.

"Don't say it's possible." Xiao Tian is obsessed with the affairs of the venue.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the continental competition officially kicked off.

The venue is really small, and there are many fans sitting there with glow sticks in their hands on the outside of the stage.

The host LMS region, which took the lead on the stage, was enthusiastically cheered by the home crowd.

Lightning Wolf, AHQ, JTeam, and Machi members take the stage.

In Lin Ran's opinion, the top two of the four teams are a bit of a threat.

The last two teams are the sending boys.

The second region to appear was LCK, and the moment SKT took the stage, the audience applauded thunderously!

"The venue is small, and the audience is still very enthusiastic," Xiao Tian, who was waiting, said with a smile, looking forward to it a little more, "The cheers we will have for a while should be quite spectacular, right?" ”

The bent hostess on the stage spoke in a stretched tone, "Next, let's welcome the 216 World Finals champion and 2017 mid-season champion, YM!" ”

Lin Ran took the team behind him to the stage from the rear and waved to the audience.

But to everyone's surprise.

The 2,000 spectators did not say anything.

The vast majority of people are watching from the sidelines.

Only a small group of spectators held YM cheers for them.

It's still simplified, and at first glance, it's a mainland exchange student or a temporary residence for work reasons.

The smiling Jack and Xiao Tian felt very embarrassed, they were as helpless and pitiful as the Joker.

They glanced at each other and quickly withdrew their hands.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Tian couldn't figure it out.

"For some well-known reasons, don't wait to see us," Lin Ran said angrily, "It's disgusting to be so good." ”

YM's seven players plus the coach are black like charcoal.

All kinds of things happened, and the face of the bent hostess on the scene was also a little ugly, and the other three LPL teams she introduced next encountered the same cold reception as YM.

The applause at the scene was sparse, and after the radio equipment was processed, it was transmitted back through the live broadcast equipment, and there was basically no sound.

The audience squatting in the live broadcast room sensed that something was wrong.

[What are you doing? No applause, welcome, right? 】

[Do you really look down on LPL? ] 】

[Kaohsiung people are all mentally handicapped orphans? 】

At the end of the opening ceremony, the YM team members sat in the players' seats and waited for the game to start.

The rules of the continental race are simple and clear.

The two-day group stage saw each team play two matches against their top-ranked opponents from the other two regions.

For example, YM, they will face fellow No. 1 seed Lightning Wolves in their opening match.

"The audience likes to engage in sit-in, right? Meet them later and turn this place into a library! Lin Ran said viciously.

He was still thinking about the opening game last night, saving some face for the host lightning wolf, and not fighting too hard.

I didn't expect the audience to disagree.

An empathetic person like Lin Ran naturally wants to satisfy them.

This suggestion was unanimously endorsed by several other teammates!
