The RNG team's roster this time is slightly different from their starting roster in the Spring Split.

Since each team can only carry one substitute player, RNG made a trade-off between top laner and jungler, and decided to bring two junglers and one top laner.

And the top laner they carried was not the letme who had previously sat firmly in the starter, but the gesture.

The players on both sides had a good relationship and greeted each other amicably.

It was only then that Shi Senming paid attention to King Ning.

King Ning grimaced, don't turn his head and pretend not to hear.

"Ouch, what's wrong with you?"

Shi Senming grinned and leaned in, maybe he and Li Luo are not so familiar, but he and King Ning are definitely the kind of good brothers of iron buddies.

Approaching him, Shi Senming jumped forward, turned into a koala and pulled King Ning, provoking King Ning to shout with disgust: "Get out, hurry down!" ”

After a while, the RW people also took their luggage and walked over, and the four teams of the LPL expedition went to the hotel arranged by the official under the guidance of the staff, and began to adjust the equipment in their respective training rooms.

And the coaches of the major teams also held a group meeting that night.

When it came to this unanimity, the LPL teams were still very united, especially because of the version change, and the players didn't have much time to train according to version 8.13.

The coaches of each team can exchange their understanding with each other, which can greatly supplement the shortcomings of each team.

In contrast, the players took advantage of this time to get together in twos and threes to chat and talk.

"Brother Luo, come on, teach me the experience of playing KZ."

Xiaohu leaned next to Li Luo, and his arm naturally rested on Li Luo's shoulder.

Entangled by this self-acquaintance, Li Luo looked at Shi Senming helplessly and helplessly, but Shi Senming pinned his head to the side, talked to Uzi, and pretended not to notice Li Luo's eyes.

Uzi shrugged his shoulders at Li Luo, looking helpless.

"It's very simple to hit KZ, and it's all over if you hit the road."

Li Luoyan concisely put forward his own "good strategy".

However, Li Luo felt that Xiaohu was purely here to chat, as can be seen from RNG's starting list, although it is ...... Oh, at this time, it's still a thief.,Although the strength of the posture in the top single position is not super strong.,But it's undeniable that the posture is more offensive than letme.。

1v1, the posture is enough to hit Khan.

However, if it is 2v1 or multi-v1, Khan's weaknesses will be exposed very quickly.

BDD is not a player with strong line-playing ability, and this kind of player is precisely the most restrained by Xiaohu.

After all, in addition to the fact that a mid-laner like Xiaohu will suffer in the middle of the lane with strong ability to match, he is really not afraid of playing others.

Let's not talk about the next road.

Although his arrival changed history, Uzi has not been able to win the cup so far, but from the end of last year to the present, it seems that from the end of last year to the present, Li Luo can sense that the breath held in his heart has not been loosened.

At this time, Uzi has transformed into a fierce and stable player.

Under normal performance, Pray may suffer more frustration than when he faced himself.

RNG plays KZ as a whole, and there is a slight restraint in the team's style.

What puzzled Li Luo was that he remembered that the format of the continental competition was not what it was like this year.

According to the format of the group stage of the continental competition, the format before the rebirth was that the first in this region would inevitably face the first in the other region.

So RNG, the champion of the Spring Tournament at the time, will face KZ, the Spring Champion of the LCK, and FW, the Spring Champion of the LMS Division.

However, this time, the group stage system is based on the first place in the region, the second in the outer division, the second in the outer division, the first in the external division, the third in the division, the fourth in the outer division, and the third in the outer division.

According to the official statement, it is to increase the suspense of the confrontation between the regions.

At the same time, it is also aimed at making the difference between the points between the regions smaller when the final calculation of the group ranking points.

After all, it is possible for the first place in the weak division to beat the second place in the outer division.

But correspondingly, the second in the strong division also has a probability of beating the first in the outer division.

In this way, the suspense will be greater.

It is said that the inspiration for this decision came from a certain IEM event, when the WE team, which was at the bottom of the LPL, won the first rox tiger in the LCK when no one was favored.

That event was undoubtedly a model of how the weak defeated the strong.

In order to increase the confrontation of the division, it is understandable that Riot has set up a schedule like this.

Of course, they didn't go too far, and the range between the first, second, and third and fourth places was divided.

The strength of being able to enter the finals will be relatively close.

After all, in Riot's view, the chances of a fourth-place victory over a first-place finish are slim to none.

In other words, according to the format of this competition, RNG's two games need to face the Lightning Wolf FW and KZ.

EDG, on the other hand, will face GREX, the second-ranked team in the LMS region, and AFS in the LCK region.

And on the first day of the group stage, EDG will fight with AFS!

Recently, countless viewers on the Internet have begun to discuss this major event.

The fact that the ADC has been cut is already on the table.

Whether EDG's strength has been affected or not depends on this game to prove.

Xiaohu's chatter is not just because of this continental competition.

There are also follow-up Asian Games events.

Although the list has not been completely finalized at this time, it is basically a matter of eight or nine.

Although Xiaohu's usual mentality is very good, only he knows whether he is panicking in his heart.

Li Luo can also chat with Xiaohu, after all, Xiaohu's emotional intelligence is good, and he is relatively talkative, so he doesn't need to let Li Luo find a topic, and Li Luo's chat strategy is that as long as you can find a topic, I can chat with you for a long time.

"It's a pity, the next version of the champion skin will come out, otherwise there will still be a good chance to see Xia Luo's roar in this continental competition."

Meiko said deliberately to Sapphire Blue as she drank her drink.

Sapphire glanced at him: "The skin is not yours." ”

Meiko didn't care when she heard it, but continued to herself: "I can't use it for the continental competition, there is always a chance to use it in the Asian Games, and all I can use when my buddy has a champion skin in the future is two!" ”

"Robber logic."

Sapphire was speechless.

He thinks Meiko is so cheap.

I really want to give him two punches.

However, after looking at his small body and comparing Meiko's body, Baolan still gave up this idea.

The main reason is that both of them are too thin, and Baolan is afraid that if he punches down, he may enter the hospital and he will enter the bureau, or vice versa, or both of them will go in again.

It's still garlic.

"Anyway, don't you think it's a bit disgusting to do this with your fists, Lulu's 6-second shield was reduced to only 2.5 seconds, and it also strengthened the hero of the mouse cannon."

Sapphire seemed to think of something, and said suddenly.

That's right, neither of them paid attention when they first learned that Lulu's shield had been weakened.

But who knew it would be so badly cut.

Although Pixar hangs on the hero's body for 6 seconds.

But it's disgusting that the duration of the shield has been cut in half.

Strengthened the E skill damage of rats and cannons, which is also a chicken rib in the eyes of Sapphire Blue.

Without a suitable hero to protect, even if it is slightly strengthened, it is still difficult for these two heroes to survive the early stage.

"This version of the soft assistant can also be played by Morgana and Xing Ma...... Of course, Lowe doesn't count. ”

meiko shook his head: "ad's words are still Xia and Lucian, the most suitable for this version are these two heroes, Kaisha will be stronger in the later stage, but the ad is not weak in the four teams we came to participate in this time, which is the advantage of our LPL." ”

"We're going to play KT, and I don't know if we can beat it."

Sapphire sighed.

There are no days when Li Luo, although he feels that his game level has improved through continuous efforts, but his mentality is always empty, and he always feels unsteady.

Although the players are using chat to divert their attention, they will unconsciously return to the game while chatting.

For the game that is about to start, everyone is still thinking about it.

……

On the day of the race.

The match between RNG and FW kicked off as the opener.

The three LPL teams watched the game collectively in the huge lounge arranged by the organizer as melon-eating people.

When he saw that RNG had chosen a relatively normal conservative lineup, Li Luo inadvertently glanced at Sun Dayong, the accompanying coach of RNG, and the heart who had just returned to the lounge.

From the perspective of a professional player, Li Luo feels that RNG's bp ...... It will always give him the feeling that it is difficult to put into words.

Of course, it is not excluded that Li Luo's team has more room for choice and more flexible thinking.

If Li Luo is asked to describe RNG in a more euphemistic way in the face of the lineup selected by FW, Li Luo can only be expressed in two words.

"Conservative."

Too conservative.

And the coach who came to the stage BP seems to think too much.

They think FW is too complicated.

Tactics aside, there is a gap between the individual abilities of the players on both sides.

Although it is a bit of a feeling of talking on paper from the perspective of God, Li Luo still feels that it is better to choose a more fierce lineup for RNG and let them play with their own play.

obviously changed his posture, but he chose a Mondo for him.

Then choose a Galio for Little Tiger.

Finally, get a Kai'Sa for Uzi.

Okay.

Single-core.

Put the treasure on Kaisha, who is difficult to play in the early stage.

You have to let the bottom lane play a strong line and take over the game in the late game.

FW is very good at making trouble.

Judging from Uenakano, a vampire in one hand, a scorpion in one hand, and a captain in the other, they seem to be still alive in the MSI version.

Judging from the combination of the lower road, a Pike and an iron man, both of them made wages and went out.

The selection of these two things means that FW has enough research on RNG, and although Kai'Sa can press Iron Man, she can't press it at all because of the lack of lane strength.

And this version of the Salary Relic Shield will not let you make up for it just because there are too many soldiers.

RNG's roster is so dependent on Kaisha's development that they have to drag it to the later stages.

And by the time it comes to the Kai'Sa trio, both the vampire and the captain have developed.

The damage of teamfights is not on the same order of magnitude at all.

In the end, RNG lost the opening battle with the sighs of countless live audiences.

The opening battle of the LPL was lost like this.

For the countless spectators who are following this game, this is really an "opening lightning strike".

"I threw up, Xiaohu can't play Galio, don't let him play."

"What is this bp, I don't understand it at all, the output point is a Kaisha, and Camille and Galio will die when they enter the field."

"Mondo is meaty, but it's useless."

"I eat three ways for one person, and I don't output it in a group, this is my evaluation of this Kaisha."

"Hehe, a vampire is in front, the captain's big move is another way, and then a bucket to greet you, you go to steal the output space?"

"The key is that there is Pike, you can't lose too much blood in a group, and these iron men are also good meat."

"I threw up, and I smiled over there."

"Huazi still can't do it...... I suddenly felt like it was going to be cold at this intercontinental race. ”

"Don't mention it, I thought the schedule was good for us and now it's ...... I'm worried that EDG will also overturn. ”

"Yes, if EDG overturns today, I will directly split into eight petals on the spot."

"It's really a real thing, EDG hasn't encountered AFS, what they are best at is killing ......"

……

The audience complained about the discussion, but there was joy in the LCK lounge.

As the saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

Although they have been defeated many times by the LMS division, and FW has also been crowned with the title of Anti-Korean Wonder Hero, the audience will only remember the person who went to the end.

Therefore, they would like to see the LPL region deflated than the LMS region.

"RNG in such a state, I feel like our chance has come!"

Pray was also excited.

Frustrated by Li Luo, he urgently needs someone to help him get back on the field.

For Pray, this continental race is an opportunity to prove himself.

I can't beat you shine, can't I beat uzi who was pressed by you in the LPL?

Khan's expression was tinged with joy.

He could see that the micro-manipulation of the posture was relatively rough.

At least more than he did.

With such an RNG, they really have a chance.

Looking at the joy of the KZ crowd, several members of the AFS team were also faintly excited.

As professionals, they don't just look at appearances.

The loss of RNG and the bp made them see that the LPL didn't seem to have adapted in this version.

It's no wonder, after all, the update of the official server will always lag behind them by a version.

RNG didn't adapt, and the other teams probably didn't either.

AFS has been in excellent form in the recent LCK Summer Tournament, and among the four teams in the LCK this time, AFS is also the team with the best understanding of the current version of the game.

If they are faced with EDG with a mediocre understanding of the version, then they are really confident that they will win it!

……

The second race of the continental tournament was a battle between MAD, who was in 4th place in the LMS division of Team IG.

As soon as they won one of their own divisions, the MAD crowd stepped onto the stage with great momentum.

And then...... It took 22 minutes to be hit by IG with a 17-to-4 head-to-head ratio, and he left work at the speed of light.

When the IG crowd packed up their peripherals and walked off the stage with expressionless faces, LPL fans finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, IG is in the right place.

Though...... They don't seem to have any version of the understanding, and they just beat the MAD through the whole thing by just alignment.

After a short period of relaxation, the most nervous and at the same time the most anticipated game of the audience came.

On the commentary seat, the doll, Miller and the invited commentators smiled and after the director's camera turned to them, the doll took the lead in speaking: "Welcome back." ”

"This one, I think, should be the most watched one today, AFS plays EDG."

Miller followed up and said: "Have you ever known the AFS team, and where do you think their strength is among the four teams in the LCK this time?" ”

"This ......"

Smile hesitated for two seconds before saying, "From the perspective of the adc position, I don't think the AFS bottom lane duo is outstanding, at least compared to the bottom lane duo of the other three LCK teams. ”

"But...... If you take into account the overall strength of the team itself, then I think AFS is definitely one of the best among the four teams in the LCK. ”

"As long as they can keep Aiming up against shine's attack, it doesn't feel like it's going to be easy to play, so I think AFS will definitely use it at Calista."

The analysis of the smile made Miller and the doll nod slightly, especially Miller, who agreed with the smile's statement: "Version 8.13 has a small enhancement for Calista, and it can be said that EDG has won the most times in the summer game since the start of the summer season, except for Lucian, the hero who has won the most times in the lower lane is Calista." ”

"So the key point of this is in the upper midfield of both sides, to be precise, the key point should be in the middle, I think if Scout plays well, there is a chance to penetrate Kuro head-on."

Smile said seriously.

kuro。

Last year's KZ mid-laner.

This year, KZ chose BDD, and he came to AFS.

The 94-year-old Kuro is known as the Korean Tiger.

Steady, conservative is synonymous with him.

And this type of mid-laner is precisely restrained by the junior brother.

But there are two sides to everything.

The younger brother's nerve knife and instability are a fatal flaw in him.

If this instability is shown in front of Kuro, the experienced veteran will most likely take advantage of the younger junior's compulsion to play to the advantage.

After saying this, he smiled and continued, "Their jungler spirit...... I feel like one of the best junglers in the LCK recently, needless to say, Kiin, who is on the list, is the absolute core of AFS at present, and if he can be blocked, then EDG will win more than half. ”

"However, the specific practical operation still depends on the preparation of EDG, the bp of both sides has begun, AFS on the blue side, EDG on the red side!"

"The first three bans of AFS were given to Kaisha, Calista and the captain!"

"Kaisha's words are meant to limit EDG's ability to take over the game in the late lanes, Calista...... As I just said, limit the possibility of breaking through the right lane in the early stage, and the last captain, this is undoubtedly a kind of respect for Jin Gong. ”

"The three bans of the EDG team were given to the sword girl, the sword demon, and Bron! Blocked Kiin's two-handed hero, a very good bp, which shows that EDG did not underestimate the enemy, and really studied AFS seriously. ”

With the analysis of the smile, the AFS team chose Lucian on the first floor.

"Lucian, there's nothing wrong with this choice, one of the strongest versions of the ADC, but in this case, should EDG directly choose the Xialuo combination?"

The doll's eyes lit up.

He hadn't seen Xia Luo's combination for a long time.

"I don't think we will directly select all the bottom lane duos."

Smile shook his head slightly: "In that case, the bp of the AFS will be too comfortable." ”

"Yes, if EDG directly chooses the bottom lane duo, then AFS will directly take Morgana, EDG will have a lot of headaches."

Miller also saw the clues.

EDG was quick to give them a solution.

Ground floor, Kasumi.

Second floor, Poppy.

"Bobby...... A pretty standard defensive counter-attacking option, this version of Poppy has been enhanced, and it can also pinching another hero keg that has been enhanced and has become a top laner! ”

Miller's pitch raised.

In Update 8.12, Bobby's passive skill CD was reduced, and the CD of Q skill was also reduced, and the damage was increased.

As for why the barrel is mentioned, it is also because the barrel's W skill drunken rage has been greatly strengthened in version 8.13, level 1 is 8 seconds, and the subsequent decreasing W skill CD has been changed to a 5-second CD for all levels, and the attack range has been increased by 50 points after the W is released.

It's a terrifying reinforcement for the pros.

EDG's choice is obviously to allow AFS to weigh more in the selection of the upper unit.

However, the AFS's choice was extremely resolute.

Wine barrels on the second floor, pig girls on the third floor!

"Good meat."

These two heroes were selected, and the three commentators on the commentary table frowned in unison.

The reason why Kasumi is popular in this version is because of the high compatibility between this hero and Arashiri, which is one of them.

The second is because it's balanced.

There are outbreaks, there are controls, there are life-saving.

Such an ADC does not hurt low in the current version, and it is not easy to die.

But to make it lonely Kerry, I'm afraid it's not realistic.

As far as AFS's first three heroes are concerned, EDG must make up an output core on the medium unit in the future.

The problem is that the output of large nuclear line matching capabilities is bound to be very strong, which ...... Isn't that exactly what AFS expected?

However, the third floor of EDG did not choose to use Luo to form the match of Xia Luo, but instead finalized a troll.

"Got the trolls, that's better."

The smile and slightly frowning brows stretched: "There are trolls, AFS is equivalent to missing a thick front row during team battles, and trolls and Bobby have a saying, so in this case, EDG's lineup is actually okay, and there is a lot of room for junior brothers to choose." ”

"The second round should revolve around supporting."

Miller stared thoughtfully at the second-round bans between the two sides.

Not surprisingly, EDG's second-round bans were given to Niu Tou and Morgana respectively.

AFS followed suit with the blind monk pressing down on the first hand.

The reason why the blind monk is pressed to death is because the blind monk has been strengthened in two consecutive versions, especially the enhancement in 8.13, which directly reduces the CD of the blind monk's W skill for two seconds.

is worthy of a fist kissing his son, it is outrageous.

EDG has a history of pulling trolls to play support.

This AFS has to guard against.

After all, the Blind Monk is a hero that Xiao Tian is very good at using, and once EDG chooses the Blind Monk, then their upper midfield strength will skyrocket.

Even though Pig Girl and Wine Barrel are stronger in skirmishes, they also have to consider the risk of being caught and taken away.

In such a situation where the support heroes were severely targeted, the fourth floor of EDG locked a rather surprising hero.

Parker.

This hero RNG has just suffered a loss under FW.

EDG is now directly out.

"Pike...... EDG is so avant-garde.,At this stage, there aren't many teams that dare to take out Pike.,After all, it's only been out for a long time.,Plus this is a hero that requires extremely high proficiency.,Ordinary players really don't dare to use it.,meiko's guts can.。 ”

Smile said stunned.

Of course, as an ADC, he can roughly guess why Meiko has such courage.

In fact, many players are proficient enough in certain heroes.

It's because of my mentality that I don't dare to take it to the game.

With this mentality, even if they really take out the hero, it is easy to play poorly due to nervousness, and in the end, the audience is really stamped with a hat of "can't play and dare to take it out".

"How so...... Proficiency aside, I think this Pike chose a very interesting ah, we all know that Pike is a hero, his wandering ability is very exaggerated, AFS's bp idea is to let you suppress the lower lane, I will stabilize the lower road, and it will be over when you hit the middle field, but EDG told them, sorry, we can press and resist pressure on the lower road, as for you want to hit the middle field...... I assist Meiko and want to insert it! ”

Miller smacked his lips: "EDG's countermeasure, I think it's okay." ”

"There are very few options for AFS, they have to choose one that can swim, like the rock sparrow, and as for the auxiliary, Tamu is almost there."

A clear-thinking smile spoke directly.

And in the next second, AFS actually did just that!

The barrage also floated a blockbuster 666 to smile.

But for Smile, it's not uncommon to be able to guess these two heroes.

"Although the rock sparrow has been weakened in two versions in a row, fortunately, the weakening is not large, and the AFS side has the rock sparrow, Uenakano wants to gather in a group, and the speed will be very fast, the control chain of the two people of the barrel and the pig girl can make up for the lack of damage, as the so-called damage is not enough, control to make up, the control of these two people plus the outbreak of the rock sparrow, I have to say, AFS Uenakano combination is very strong."

smiled and said: "Of course, it still depends on what hero EDG will choose for the junior brother of Zhonglan." ”

And as the smiling voice fell, the fifth floor of EDG was also freshly baked.

"Zuo Yin...... Locked! ”

Millermo rubbed his chin: "This mother is undoubted, it is a confident choice, the junior brother is going to play the right line, from the support ability and small-scale combat ability of Uenakano, EDG is slightly inferior, only a strong fight to the line can explain the reason for the second choice of Zuo Yin." ”

"In any case, the BP game between the two sides can see the skills of the coaches on both sides, and from the BP, both sides are very well prepared."

net

Said with a smile.

"It still depends on the player's performance, okay, the lineup here has been decided! The AFS team on the blue side, the wine barrel on the top laner, the boar girl on the top laner, the rock sparrow on the mid laner, and the duo on the bottom lane are Lucian and Tamu respectively! ”

"The red side EDG team, the top laner Bobby, the jungler troll, the mid laner Zuo Yin, and the bottom lane duo are Kasumi and Pike!"

"The players on both sides are ready, let's get into this battle together!"

ps: It was okay last night, I went to bed early from 4 am to 2 am...... emmm, I hope I can fall asleep at 0:00 today~
