Chapter 3: Calculating

TOG's coach Blood Moon was one of the first veterans to start playing in the closed beta of the US server, and then became a professional player, playing for the second and third seasons in a row.

However, due to the increasing age and the rapid development of professional leagues, the aging Blood Moon gradually failed to adapt to the high-intensity LCC league. After much deliberation, Blood Moon chose to retire.

Blood Moon's retirement didn't attract much attention, and like many unknown early pros, he quietly disappeared from the ring, and even his former record was never found.

After retiring, Blood Moon is still full of love for League of Legends, so he chooses to become a professional coach, even if he can no longer appear on the field, he can still contribute to the team's victory.

With the increasing popularity of the game, the development of professional leagues is also rapid, and professional leagues have been established in various major regions around the world, and the operation of teams has become more and more standardized, and the scale of competitions has become larger and larger.

Finally, in Season 5, the Pro League introduced a new norm that coaches can come to the stage BP, and Blood Moon finally stood on the professional stage again, albeit for only ten minutes, albeit as a coach.

In the first round of BP, each side will make three moves first, then the blue side will make the first choice of the blue side, and then the red side will make the first and second choices of the red side; Then the blue side will make the second and third choices of the blue side, and finally the red side will make the third choice of the red side.

The first choice of the blue BBG team was directly given to the ace midlaner Song Yijing, and the elemental queen Kiana was chosen.

This is the 145th hero released in League of Legends, and she is a mid-lane physical assassin with powerful wandering and solo kill abilities. But the biggest problem with the Assassin Hero is that it will be completely useless when the authorities are at a disadvantage, and Song Yijing's choice is an aggressive and confident one.

This choice seems to be Song Yijing telling everyone, I want Carry!

But Blood Moon is also convinced of his own mid-laner, and this eighteen-year-old genius is also the ace of the house.

Blood Moon obeyed Zuo Shoumo's wishes and chose Zoe the Starlight Spirit for him, and then the second choice locked on the Exorcist Spear Lucian.

Lucian's hand is also a pre-determined tactic, because his own bottom lane duo is weaker than the opponent in terms of lane ability, choosing Lucian, who is very strong in the early lane for his own ADC, can make up for his own disadvantage in the bottom lane.

Bridging the gap in player strength with a strong selection of heroes is the most basic tactic in League of Legends Pro matches.

It was BBG's turn to pick two or three, BBG chose Svarney of the Wrath of the North in the jungler position, and Kaisha, the daughter of the void in the ADC position.

Everything is in the calculation of the blood moon, and Yan Letian, who did not play well in the last round of the bubble match, will definitely choose the conservative and steady Schwani.

Affectionately known as Pig Girl by players, Swanny is a female polar warrior who rides a wild boar, and the sixth level is to throw out a polar ice lasso, and the enemies who hit will be stunned by the ice. Pig Girl is a common tank-type jungler in the current version, with very high HP and armor, but the disadvantage is that it is very weak in the wild area in the early stage, and the ability of the pig girl gank line who does not have a great absolute before level 6 is very weak.

Gank, that is, multiplayer purposeful capture, is a raid in the game, and the jungler will often raid the enemy according to the three-lane situation to help his teammates complete the kill.

The gank success rate of the jungler is an important reference data to reflect the level of the jungler, and the gank success rate of the hero Pig Girl before level 6 is very low, and the choice of Pig Girl means that the BBG team will take a passive defensive posture in the early game.

BBG's ADC slot selection is also expected by the Blood Moon, and Kai'Sa, the Daughter of the Void, is a very powerful ADC in the late game, and is also Yuwenbo's most used signature hero this season.

On the red side's third choice, Blood Moon chose to lock the Berserker Olaf for the jungler Xiongxiong after a little thought.

In addition to BBG's first choice of Elemental Queen Kiana, BBG's second and third choices are all expected by the Blood Moon, and winning Olaf, the strongest in the early stage in the jungle position, can allow Xiongxiong to invade BBG's wild area unscrupulously.

In the second round of BP, the blue side starts with the alternate moves, then the red side plays the fourth choice, the blue side plays the fourth and fifth choices, and finally the red side makes the fifth choice.

The fifth choice of the red side is also the last choice of the entire BP, and this last choice is called the "counter position".

Counter, i.e., restraint, because at this time the blue side has already selected all the lineups, and the last choice of the red side can come up with a restraint character for the blue side's lineup.

In the professional arena, many classic games have resulted in amazing counter-picks at the end.

At the beginning of the second round of BP, Blood Moon first removed the Abyss Titan Nadiruth in the support position, and BBG's support player Lan Tianbao has been performing poorly recently, but he played a good effect in the last round with Titan.

Then the BBG team removed the support position of Freel Zhuodhao's wrist Bron, Bron's passive skill [Concussion Slam] can stun opponents after the four layers of passive stacking, and is the best partner for the exorcist Spear Lucian.

Blood Moon's selection of Lucian in the first round is destined for BBG to move Bron in the second round, which is also Blood Moon's calculation.

The last move of the Blood Moon once again chooses to block the support position, this time it is the fallen angel Morgana, Morgana's E skill can provide a magic immunity shield, and has a counter effect on her mid lane Zoe.

And the last move on the BBG team's side is still the support position, Karma the Soul Respirator, Karma the Soul Respirator is a super strong early hero who can swing in three ways.

In the second round of BP, both sides actually used all the moves on supports, blocking a total of four supports!

At the end of the second round of moves, the red side will make the fourth choice first, and the blood moon will directly lock on to the Minotaur chief Alista in the auxiliary position.

A smile tugged at the corner of Blood Moon's mouth, and at this point, his BP trap had been laid.

In the first round of selection, Blood Moon chose Lucian, the Exorcist Spear, as the ADC, forcing BBG to remove Freel Jodhero's wrist Bron in the second round of BP. The Blood Moon then picks the Berserker Olaf in the jungler position again, forcing BBG to remove Karma the Revelator in the second round. Because in this fast-paced version, the combination of Olaf and Karma, the two super early heroes, has a 100% win rate, and no team will be stupid enough to let go of the other team's Olaf and Karma combination.

As a result, the two precious moves in the second round of BBG had to be used according to the Blood Moon's script.

Then Blood Moon once again removed two supports, the Fallen Angel of the counter midlaner, Morgana, and the abyssal Titan Nadirus that BBG supports Blue Sky Treasure is good at.

In addition to the magic cat Yumi who was removed by the blood moon in the first round of BP, and the Thunder Roar Bear Fliber who was removed by the BBG team, a total of six support heroes were removed from both sides.

In the second round of selection, Blood Moon first snatched the support Minotor Chief Alista, not only dismantling BBG's bottom lane combination: Kashaga Old Bull's classic bottom lane combination, but also blocking BBG's hero pool for supporting Blue Sky Treasure again

Kill two birds with one stone!

The coach of the BBG team didn't know that he had unknowingly fallen into the BP trap of the Blood Moon!

Blockade Assist! Under the step-by-step layout, the blood moon finally achieved his goal.

Blue Sky Treasure has been in terrible form throughout the year, and the hero pool is shallow and not refined, and in this version where the wild assistant wanders to drive the rhythm of the whole game, the support Blue Sky Treasure and the jungler Guan Naono seem to have been out of the version all the time, making the team have poor results in the summer tournament.

The BBG team made it to the first round after a tough run, and as a result, the global champion of Season 8 and the winner of this season's spring tournament was reduced to a bubble match against the rookie TOG.

In addition to the ace in the middle lane, the left Shoumo of the new army TOG does not lose to Song Yijing, and the personal strength of the upper and lower lanes is obviously inferior to BBG, so from the beginning, the prey targeted by the blood moon is BBG's weakest nofu.

Move six supports, grab one support, under the careful design of the blood moon, there are now only two commonly used heroes left in the hero pool of Blue Sky Treasure: the river monster Tamu and the confused feather Luo.

In the absence of Reverse Yuxia as an ADC match, the ability to match the line on the line is very weak, and it is countered by the old bull, so Lantian Bao will not choose Luo. Then there is only one option left!

Tam!

You have no other choice, Blue Sky Treasure!

Choose, choose, choose your natal hero Tam! Blood Moon laughed inwardly.

The river troll Tamu has the strongest protection skill in League of Legends and can swallow its teammates into its belly.

But choosing Tam means that BBG's roster will be severely lacking in control, and the entire roster will have no other means of control other than that Pig Girl can provide a single control with Daju.

Then, BBG can only let the upper unit make up for control, which will greatly limit Jiang Xiji's hero choice, and Jiang Xiji, who has excellent personal strength, has always been a carry point that the BBG team relies on extremely much.

Avoid the long and short, everything is in the calculation of the "Little Zhuge Bloodmoon"!
