Chapter 526: Recasting the glory of the LCK, it is incumbent on my generation?
With the release of the MVPs for various positions given by Riot, LCK netizens are naturally unhappy.
But they didn't have any reason to refute it, so they could only vent and shout on the keyboard, and then secretly wrote down in their hearts that they were going to wait for their LCK team to win the knockout round and jump out and punch the fist in the face.
It is worth mentioning that the first matchup of the knockout round was between the Thorn Birds and DWG.
The order seems to be determined by the time of the draw.
So leave it to the thorn bird...... Or maybe there's not much time left for the DWG team.
Inside the temporary base of the Thorn Birds.
In the training room, there is a huge whiteboard with more than 70% of the writing and drawing, and more than 70% of it is about what to pay attention to when dealing with the DWG team.
It can be seen that the thorn bird still attaches great importance to DWG.
And it's no wonder.
The three seeded teams of the LCK are indeed T1> Griffin > DWG in terms of domestic league results.
The DWG Summer Season didn't have a good regular season standing, but they had a blast in the bubble race, successfully defeating KT and GEN, two traditional powerhouses in the LCK, to advance to the Worlds.
Before they had ever played each other, at least in Li Luo's heart, the difference in strength between these three teams was very small.
In the LCK region, the difference in strength between the top three will not be very large.
Fourth place is a watershed at the beginning, and the strength of the three teams in the fourth, fifth and sixth places is also acceptable, and considering the relatively fixed play style of the LCK, the three teams ranked here are also likely to be able to overturn the top three.
But from seventh place onwards, the teams behind are purely experience babies.
Because the LCK league is composed of such a model, the top three teams are only six or seven percent sure that they can win against each other.
And on the day of the game, there is even a high probability that the state of the players will lead to a reversal of the direction of the game.
Because the style of the LCK is to minimize their mistakes as much as possible, and at the same time have a strong ability to seize opportunities.
Even if a strong team is in average shape on the day of the game and makes a lot of mistakes, it will be difficult for the weaker team to get an advantage and rely on their own team's ability to reverse it.
The DWG team, like SKT, has introduced new players in this summer's tournament.
This player Li Luo is no stranger.
ghostγ
In other words, counting Niu Guli, who sat firmly in the starting position after the intercontinental competition, DWG can now be regarded as officially gathering the five tigers who won the championship in S10 before rebirth.
Therefore, before he fought against the DWG team, Li Luo was wary of the strength of this team.
ghost, as a 99-year-old player, has a much longer career than Li Luo when he is one year younger than Li Luo.
It's just that Ghost's career is indeed full of ups and downs, and the name "Ghost Emperor" comes from this.
But there will come a time when people will be bitter and happy.
While ghost may not be particularly strong, his playstyle is a perfect fit for the DWG team.
Li Luoyou recalled his evaluation of ghost before he was reborn.
There are actually very few evaluations of him, because he is really a little transparent.
Like most Korean ADCs, Ghost always has a way where he can step up when he needs to, but if you focus on him tactically and have him C, he doesn't have that ability.
Li Luo's understanding of the Ghost Emperor only existed after the S10 World Championship.
He didn't pay attention to this player before S10 either.
Therefore, Li Luo put a lot of effort into the body of the Ghost Emperor.
After a few games in the bubble match, the heroes used by ghost and the overall lineup of the DWG team, Li Luo gradually became more and more eyebrow-raising.
Ghost is Korean-style AD.
But there is one thing about him that is different from Korean AD.
That's ...... His deception.
This team has never been confined to the heroes of Ad in the selection of heroes, such as Yin Zereel or the Drama Master, who can mix and develop in the early stage of auxiliary wandering, and are useful to the team in the middle and late stages.
DWG,It's going to give ghost a strong lane hero.γ
The support Genshin Brother will also try his best to cooperate with it.
But DWG's bottom lane duo doesn't seem to have any baggage.
Many teams have a fixed mindset when it comes to choosing a bottom lane duo.
For example, if Lucian is chosen with Nami, there will be offensive pressure in the lower lane, as if once it is not played, then the lower lane will have no effect, so when finalizing the two-lane combination, there will always be entanglement in the choice of support and be constrained.
But DWG won't.
Because they have Genshin Brother.
Brother Yuanshen's assistant Li Luo is quite appreciative of it.
He doesn't deliberately think about the ADC when choosing heroes.
Coupled with his already good strength, even if he is weak in the lower lane, Genshin Brother can also rely on his game understanding to expand his advantage by helping his teammates.
As long as DWG's upper midfield advantage rises, then to put it bluntly, AD tethered dogs can win.
Of course, this is not to belittle the Ghost Emperor.
It's a very true sentence, this dog, not everyone can be it.
The four words "obscene development" are not something that everyone can do, otherwise there would not be so many people in the rank who know that they can't beat the result and have been raising their big daddy for some reason.
Coincidentally, the Ghost Emperor is exactly the kind that can be.
Past experience, combined with his own age, has given the Ghost Emperor a very low status in the DWG team.
As low as ...... He just needs to be obedient.
Listen to Brother Genshin.
He did a great job.
So kicked out the previous adc.
The Ghost Emperor succeeded in ascending to the throne.
What Li Luo has to do now is to use his brain to fight with Brother Genshin Impact.
How will DWG play their cards when they face them?
β¦β¦
Three days later, the answer will be revealed.
The first day of the playoffs.
The scene was crowded.
For this new generation of team, LCK netizens have a huge tolerance.
Although there are still many trolls who are completely brainless, trolls are also layered.
At least most of the trolls feel that DWG are now playing as their No. 3 seed, and they are at least in principle an advantage against the Thorn Birds.
Since it's not an advantage, let's be tolerant for the time being, see how well DWG performs in the game, and if it doesn't perform well, it's not too late to raise the keyboard in your hand.
On the commentary seat, Guan Zeyuan, Wang remembered and the commentators...... Sapphire Blue, it's ready.
That's right, today's commentary seat specially invited Li Luo's first assistant to come over to explain the game.
Facing the camera, Sapphire Blue looked a little dull and quiet.
After Guan Zeyuan and Wang remembered the opening, Guan Zeyuan took the lead in leading the topic to Baolan.
"I'd like to ask Baolan, what do you think of the bottom lane duo in today's game?"
Baolan was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then replied without thinking: "I think the focus of this one should be on the upper middle field and the lower road...... There's nothing to pay attention to, there's Brother Luo, win steadily. β
As soon as these words came out, Guan Zeyuan was slightly surprised.
He knew that Baolan was usually tactful and humble in his words.
But in front of countless audiences, I didn't even think about it......
Good guy, this is no longer Brother Luo's licking dog, this is licking wolf!
Of course, Guan Zeyuan can understand this kind of behavior, because he is too.
After saying this, Baolan hesitated a little, and then added: "But DWG's support still needs to be paid attention to, when I met him in rank, I felt that this person's control of the rhythm of the game was very terrifying." β
"And he is the commander of the team, not the kind of operation, at this point I think it will be more difficult for Brother Luo to command, after all, he needs to operate on the one hand, and he needs to command on the other, on the other hand, DWG's ad can put all his thoughts and energy on operation."
As a supporter, Sapphire knows exactly how cool it can be to walk down the road with someone who can command.
It's a pity that there is no going back to those years.
Jackeylove's command ability is not bad, but it is ...... compared to Brother Luo Well...... There is no comparison.
Of course, Baolan also knows that her current state has tended to decline.
He often thinks that even if God gives him another chance, he ...... Are you still qualified to assist Brother Luo?
Baolan was in a trance, and he didn't listen to the communication between Guan Zeyuan and Wang Yiyi, and when he came back to his senses, Guan Zeyuan's tone suddenly rose.
In the trash talk session from the knockout round, Showmaker said that sentence in advance, which turned into a famous quote before Li Luo was reborn.
It is incumbent upon our generation to recast the glory of LCK.
It's just that in today's world, such a famous quote was said by Li Luo on the world stage of S7.
It's just that what Li Luo said is "casting the glory of LPL." β
Before S7, the LPL had no glory in the S competition.
In contrast, Showmaker said this, more like a silent challenge to what Li Luo said at the beginning.
And when Showmaker's voice fell, the BP between the two sides officially began.
The top of the group has the priority of the first BO5 to choose the edge.
The Thorn Bird is very rampant in choosing the red side when it has the right to choose the side.
This made the coach of DWG and Brother Genshin look at each other and see a little bit of joy in their eyes.
Arrogant.
In the LCK, which is particularly tactical, the Thorn Birds' behavior is arrogant.
If you put it in blue, you don't choose red.
Aren't you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?
"It's good that way, and the pressure on our BP has been reduced a lot."
Brother Genshin bowed slightly.
DWG's bp actually doesn't have as much to do with the coach as he does.
He can veto the coach's intentions at any time.
This is what sets Genshin Brother apart from all the pros in the LCK region.
On the commentary seat.
"The top three bans on both sides have been released one after another, and the top three bans on the DWG side have been given to Xia, Karma, and Wheel Mom!"
"The first three bans on the Thorn Bird team are given to Panson, Sindra, and Jace!"
Seeing these three-handed bans, Guan Zeyuan's brows furrowed slightly: "Ban Jace, this reminds me of the past history of LPL." β
"Actually, the tactical focus is different, the Thorn Bird team may be planning to focus on the bottom lane, so they choose functional heroes for Brother Saint Gun, so that the lane will be weaker, and it will be a great loss in the face of a pure line hero like Jace."
"Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the thorn bird deliberately dug traps to create confusion and illusions for DWG."
When Sapphire Blue analyzed, the heroes on the first floor of DWG had been locked.
Magical cat, Yuumi.
"The first floor directly robbed the cat...... But DWG banned Sivir himself, is the intention of snatching the cat going to be with other roads? β
Wang remembered the fox suspiciously.
Guan Zeyuan said quickly: "There is a popular line play style of Yumi with a small cannon or with Lucian on the LCK, and it is also very fierce to be reasonable, after all, Yumi does not need to bring flashes, so if you fight on the next road, it will be three offensive summoner skills to fight two, and the effect of matching a fierce ad is really good." β
Bao Lan nodded slightly: "It is not ruled out that Griffin is to keep other positions." β
It's the Thorn Birds' turn to choose.
Without the slightest hesitation, the Thorn Bird team quickly locked down two heroes.
Sword Demon.
Wine barrels.
Regardless of Zeyuan's opening, Bao Lan said directly: "The Thorn Bird's response is very smart, the wine barrel can be swayed, and if the wine barrel is placed on the jungler position, the strength of the Ueno with the Sword Demon is not bad." β
"Robbing the sword demon is a bit of a robbery agency, and the strength of the cat with the sword demon is still very high in the later team battle."
However, as soon as Baolan finished speaking, the DWG team quickly locked on two heroes.
Olaf.
Lucian.
"Lucian with cats, mid to late Paolaf...... DWG's tactics should have been thought out in advance, so the thorn bird is here...... Ooh! The third floor is directly out of Calista, and Brother Luo is going to make a fuss on the next road! β
Guan Zeyuan's eyes lit up.
Li Luo's Calista, everyone who understands understands.
Baolan said after a little muttering: "But the BP on the red side is still losing, and the second round of Ban is not easy to do." β
The second round of bans between the two sides is starting to come out.
DWG seems to have planned it a long time ago, and simply pressed the prince to death, followed by the bull's head.
The prince bull head.
This ban bit looks a little strange.
The Thorn Birds, on their part, took out the Angel of Judgment and Silas.
"This second round of BP ......"
Guan Zeyuan was confused, but he heard Baolan say: "Ban Silas, that thorn bird is planning to get a plane for Xiye." β
Although the aircraft was cut before the World Championship, it is still one of the mainstream of the late big core in the World Competition.
This is an objective fact.
And the plane is the hero that Xiye is better at......
Sure enough, as soon as Sapphire Lan's words fell, the fourth floor of the Thorn Bird locked the plane.
Baolan also followed up and said: "DWG's side pressed the prince to avoid the incense pot from being taken out to restrict Olaf, and pressing the bull's head is to restrain Calista's strong attack in the lower lane, and DWG's side should take into account that the barrel side may not be a jungler." β
When it's DWG's turn to make the selection.
The fourth floor of the DWG finalized Zuo Yin.
The fifth floor has chosen a crocodile!
The crocodile of the cow coulee came to fight the sword demon of the holy spear brother.
In the middle lane, choose a hero like Zuo Yin, who is strong in the early stage and pushes the line fast enough, to face a much weakened plane!
"This lineup...... It's very DWG, they like to fight in the early days, so I feel that the jungler position on the Thorn Bird side is not easy to choose, and it is reasonable that it is difficult for Olaf to encounter any natural enemies in the jungle......"
Guan Zeyuan's brows furrowed.
But soon, the hero who appeared on the fifth floor of the Thorn Bird made his brow furrow, and his expression was full of consternation.
"This ......"
In front of everyone's eyes, the fifth floor of the Thorn Bird pulled out an extremely retro hero.
This hero, arguably, barely appears in the current version of the jungler.
But one thing is for sure, this hero ...... It is true that there is restraint towards Olaf.
Moreover, it is a hero that the incense pot is extremely good at.
"Troll time!"
As Liu Qingsong finalized the hero, Xiangguo said happily: "Dude knows that you have a cat Gaolaf, and he is waiting for you here." β
At this point, the lineups of both sides have been completely finalized.
Blue side DWG, top laner crocodile, jungler Olaf, mid laner Zuo Yin, bottom lane Lucian with cat.
Red Thorn Bird, Top Single Sword Demon, Jungler Troll, Mid Single Plane, Lower Lane Calista with Wine Barrel!
