Chapter 239: Version Malice, Champion Curse

The first time the tappi mechanic appeared in front of all players was after S8 ended and ig won the championship.

In the previous version, the last time Riot did something about tower mechanics was in S6.

Prior to the change, all three outer towers had a damage reduction mechanic that had a percentage damage reduction for the first few minutes of the game.

This is a weakening of the POKE flow booster system developed in order to counter the LCK and the line change tactics that are prevalent in the LPL.

And what was the biggest problem with the previous version?

The protection of the defense tower in the first few minutes can only be enjoyed by the upper and middle lanes, and the defense tower in the lower lane has 0 protection from beginning to end.

The appearance of Tapi also means that all the teams that rely on TP to make a fuss on the lower road will have a big problem.

The reason is very simple, now there is not only the existence of a blood tower, but also the tower skin mechanism, if a single person dares to play some flower work, there is no line right, the most intuitive impact is that the five layers of tower skin and a blood are given away for nothing.

With the professional player's keen sense of smell of the version, without Li Luo's reminder, everyone also noticed a deeper impact.

In professional matches, relying on the protection of defense towers can allow some heroes who are weak to develop relatively smoothly in the early stage, but at the same time, it makes it difficult for the jungler to find opportunities in the early stage.

But now it's different, once the weak hero is pressed under the tower, a wave crosses the tower, and the loss is not only the experience of the head soldier line, but also the opposing tower skin will be eaten by the stronger side.

The ultimate weakening of herbivorous junglers, the rise of carnivorous junglers, this is one of them.

At the same time, the competition for Tapi will undoubtedly become the first resource point to compete for in the arena, and with it, the pioneer who is not high in status on weekdays will also become an existence higher than Xiaolong.

The focus of the team game will be on the three roads of Kaminakano.

The core of the game is back on the road, and that's the second one.

Finally, for the ADC on the lower road, the threat brought by an upper single that gets the advantage may be devastating, the upper route is relatively long, once you get the upper order of the advantage, you can calmly use the military line to do things.

At this time, Nakano's task becomes more arduous, every decision, every support, as long as he leaves the line, it means a loss.

"Oh my God, that's too obvious, isn't it? Isn't this carrying the top laner back to the ring? ”

Letme frowned, and found that things were not simple, and as soon as this change came out, I was afraid that all the teams would have to work hard in the upper and middle lanes.

Once one advantage can be opened, this exaggerated development speed will definitely radiate three ways.

The advantage in the early stage can easily be converted into a victory under the invincible single belt of the upper unit.

At the same time, the more likely the team with a stronger offensive ability in the early stage is to become the winner of the game, represented by IG, the version darling was born.

In disguise, the position of the ADC in the team is weakened ...

The incense pot and Xiaohu observed different points, and found that a small change in the fist brought about the consequences were not simple.

The changes to Tapi were introduced with a series of changes, and now they are suddenly launched in this time period, and the impact is actually much more terrifying than the S9 preseason.

The adc does not have the absolute team dominance like the S7, and the rise of the S7 lower lane soft auxiliary means that the upper and middle lanes are more functional roles.

Now, the positions of the two sides are going to have a big rotation, but the lower road ADC has to assume the function of the early and middle stages.

In the spring game, RNG's four-guarantee and one-piece tactic is a tactic that cannot be cracked by teams in various major regions, including LPL's own divisions.

Moreover, since the knife sister came out in this version, Li Luo also found another way to move the knife sister to the next road to use, and it worked wonders.

Li Luo's operation made the fist designer who originally wanted to increase the discourse power of the mid-laner look confused.

After S8 weakened the incense burner, the voice of the adc has been greatly weakened in the early and middle stages, and the reason why Rng can still maintain such a strong record is that in addition to the personal strength of the players, it is also inseparable from Rng's unique tactical system.

For example, Xiangguo and Xiaotian, throughout the spring game, took the team jungler that is both functional and can assume the role of the front row of the team, mainly pig girls, princes, and excavators, and most of the outfits are meat in the front row, so that under the drive of Rng, spiders, male guns, leopard women and other wild core junglers rarely appear on the field.

Another example is letme on the road, who often takes out some meat and mixes it with you, so that you can't play an advantage, waiting to play in a group, and transfer the responsibility of carry to the middle and bottom lanes.

But now, the emergence of the Tapi mechanism has completely changed the trend of the version into the trend of "carnivorous wild core is king" and "the upper road is the core in the early stage".

RNG's previous tactical system seems to be contrary to the mainstream of the version.

By chance?

Or is it that Riot must be going to the death against a team like Rng, which seems to be inexplicable at the moment.

Although the incense pot did not complain about anything, in his heart he was completely inclined to the judgment of the latter.

The obstacles that champion teams face in order to win are not only the long hours of research with all the teams, the pressure and inertia of the players when they become champions, but also the various team coordination problems and, most importantly, the opposition from Riot.

Therefore, not to mention the three consecutive championships in League of Legends, it is difficult to say that the second consecutive championship is as difficult as the sky.

Historically, the outrageous SKT has also fallen on the road to three consecutive championships, just one step away, but has never had a chance to touch the championship again.

Judging from the current urine nature of Riot, if Rng can still win the championship of S8, there is no doubt that S9 will definitely have the most deformed version in history, in that version, what is weak in Rng, or what is weak in lpl, Fist will target accordingly.

It is no exaggeration to say that at that time, it was not known whether the Green Jungler Knife would return.

The greater the expectations, the higher the demands, and the more difficult it is to resolve the disappointment and anger when defeated.

In the eyes of many fans, it is the performance that Rng should have if it is easy to crush 3 to 0 and not lose a handful.

Historically, when the Rng in the S8 period was cut down by g2, almost the whole network was full of trolls, because they carried huge expectations, and they were the cards of the lpl in S8 for a year.

But in fact, players are not machines, and their form fluctuates, especially in the frequent and restless schedule of the season, and the form is even more important.

In the first match after the implementation of the Tapi version in the national server competition, Rng met the runner-up of the spring game, ig.

Unsurprisingly, IG won the game 2-0 neatly.

This match, which surprised everyone, also showed that the weakening of the fist was finally starting to take effect.

What followed was the second set defeat between Rng and Rw after the match with ig, losing 2-1.

Two consecutive bo3 games, RNG's summer record is a bit bleak.

In the standings of all teams, Rng is in the bottom three, of course, this also has to do with the fact that Rng still has a lot of fixtures to play.

But it also proves that RNG is no longer the invincible team in the Spring Tournament and MSI.

The team that won 19 consecutive games in the spring tournament suffered two consecutive defeats at the beginning of the summer season, and in the hearts of all Rng fans, a word suddenly appeared that they were unwilling to face:

"Championship Curse"!

After losing two in a row, after returning to the lounge, it was rare for Li Luo to express his silence.

A completely different kind of strength from before came out, these two bo3, if you just look at the play, he is basically blood C.

Even in the second game of playing IG, RNG also came up with a lineup of four guarantees and one for the housekeeper.

Unfortunately, just like the record, there was little success.

If the attributes of the ADC are weakened across the board, then adding the Tapi mechanic is completely fist trying to make Rng die.

"It's okay, it's okay, we have points in the spring game, it's okay to lose, adjust your mentality"

Chris looked at the lively crowd in the past, and it was also very uncomfortable when he lost the game against Rw and looked depressed.

After a loss, whether you can adjust your form back and correct your mistakes and weaknesses sounds simple, but it is difficult to do.

After a hasty summary of the game, everyone got on the bus back to the base.

Along the way, everyone was silent, and even Xiao Tian and Xiangguo, who wanted to liven up the atmosphere, sat in the corner sullenly swiping their mobile phones.

"On the strength of Rng that can be broken as soon as it is poked, and several major vulnerabilities of Rng are counted"

"A picture tells you the gap between Rng and Skt, want a dynasty? Think about how to get into Worlds! 》

"Four kills in a single kill and two kills in a single kill, is there any moisture in the strength of letme's champion?" 》

"S7 champions, msi champion teams are in a sluggish state, or will they miss the S8 World Championship? 》

γ€Š...》

In the era of big data, as long as you are interested in a certain aspect, you will receive more and more hobby pushes.

After the numb point was cleaned up below, and all the notification messages were cleaned up, Li Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if he had just crossed over, in the face of the heyday of Samsung, he was not afraid when he had already won the match point by Samsung.

But now, the version of the target finally made him realize how naΓ―ve his previous "rhetoric" was.

Both sets lost by RNG exposed an important problem.

First, RNG's top order, whether it is letme or Xiao Northeast, both of them showed a certain rustiness after taking out the warrior top order.

But this problem is actually very easy to solve.

The strength of the two fighters on the top order is not as weak as the outside world rumores.

The use of other heroes for a long time has made the proficiency of these warriors just unfamiliar, not completely lost, as long as they maintain high-intensity training for a period of time, they will soon not become a shortcoming of Rng.

At least in the face of people other than the super one-line order like The Shy, he will not be left behind.

But the second problem is a bit more serious.

RNG's previous style of play is a little unsuitable for the version.

Especially in this version, things must be done around the upper lane, and the jungler must also choose some very strong heroes, otherwise it will lose the initiative in the early stage.

But once the jungler chooses the wild core hero and chooses the warrior on the road, it is bound that the team will lack the front row and control, and it must be made up by the bottom lane and the middle lane, Wheel Mom, Callista, Varus... and so on, functional AD is back in the world.

Of course, there is no problem in playing these ADCs, and after inheriting the strength of the puppy, Li Luo will of course play these functional ADCs to provide the team with lineup depth.

There is no problem even playing like this, Rng is still a strong team, and there is no problem in getting tickets to S8, but if you want to return to your previous dominance and win the championship of S8, it is too far behind.

The once largest team was forced to play with functional ADC because of the targeting of fists and version changes, and the team's control was reduced.

How to solve the problem of this team system is the next top priority for Rng.

....

In the training room, no one chose to rest or relax after losing the game, but at this time, everyone looked at Li Luo, who was sitting in the first place, with a puzzled look.

The reason why he showed such a look was because Li Luo had just put it forward, and his suggestion for the future team system of Rng really sounded a bit unbelievable.

To put it bluntly, I just don't understand.

"You say we're going to fight casually?" Chris pondered, "What do you mean exactly?" ”

If it were other professional players who tried to overstep their responsibilities and take the responsibility of the coach, pointing fingers at the tactical system and training core, Chris probably wouldn't have asked such a question.

Because, not every professional player can have this keen sense of smell, and more professional players who are active in the arena, including Brother Li, do not rely on their "brains" to play the game, but rely on their innate talent and thousands of training to play this game.

It's like Brother Li, who has been standing in the middle single position of the League of Legends for so many years, but if you want to ask him, what is the secret of your staying so strong, he has no way to tell you what training you rely on to maintain your condition.

Could it be that it really depends on those little games played during the live broadcast?

Don't ask, asking is a game.

Moreover, Brother Li has basically not innovated in the mid-laner position, and he is more skilled and fierce in playing the hero routines developed by others than the people who developed them.

But there are also a few professional players who point out their ability to invent and use their "brains" to play games.

This type of player can often determine the style change of the team, although it may not be the command position of the team, but it is definitely the core of the team.

Their ability to understand the game is not only ahead of the curve, but also different from ordinary people, and can perceive things that others can't see.

The most typical examples are, of course, doinb, who is still playing mid-laner in Rw, and sofm, who is not yet dominant.

Of course, now that he has become Uzi, with the help of the ability of foresight, in just half a year, Li Luo has also established this impression on everyone.

In Chris's view, he is now clearly both superb and has the brain to drive the team's team thighs.

Especially the advanced understanding of the version, sometimes he is ashamed of himself, the reason why RNG can have its current status is inseparable from the advanced insights put forward by Li Luo.

Therefore, as soon as Li Luo brought it up, the Rng people put down their work and thought about it seriously.

"Are you sure you said this casual and didn't let us mess around?"

Xiaohu looked at the heroes raised by Li Luo, and said with a smile.

"No, it's not a mess, we should call it a whole life"

Looking at Xiaohu, Li Luo said with a "sincere" face.
