Chapter 187: The Second Is You
"Are we that bad?"
In the LFY competition room, the No. 3 player Inflame couldn't help but scratch his head.
Since they formed this LFY team, the chemistry between the players has gotten better and better, the rhythm of play has gradually stabilized, and the results have gotten better and better.
For this TI, they have certain expectations in their hearts.
In the first round of the group stage, they faced the fish belly team EXE, and they easily won two points.
In the second round against Team Phoenix, they were ready for a tough battle. After all, the other party is the hottest team this year, and there is also a super genius mid-laner Vigoss in the team.
For this round of group stage, they have made full preparations in advance.
On the psychological level, we have also done enough psychological construction.
Before the game, the LFY team unified its tactical thinking: fight hard, fight hard, and even if you don't win, you have to tear off a layer of skin from the opponent.
But the reality is always so cruel.
Their two-game match against Team Phoenix took less than an hour in total.
In the first game, the pig was slaughtered by the blackbird of Vigoss.
In the second game, it ended in more than 20 minutes.
"It's amazing, isn't it?" inflame, or Brother Xiao He is very helpless.
The ambition that was ignited before TI was poured with cold water at this time.
"They played too tightly, and they kept pressing us to fight, so that we didn't have room to develop at all." The mid-laner Baozi also has a sad face.
His experience in these two games is the real bad.
It's too painful to play against that vigoss.
It was not easy to take out the natal dragon knight, and Baozi felt a deep sense of powerlessness at this time.
"There's no way, if you lose to them, you can only admit it." No. 1 Mo straightened his long white and slender legs, and said helplessly: "Play well in the rest of the game, you must get a place in the winner's group." ”
The inflame in the corner of the room was also silently cheering itself up.
He participated in TI this time, not just for the champion Aegis.
He has an even more significant goal.
It was only after the fight against Team Phoenix that he felt that this goal was a little too difficult to achieve.
......
The group stage matches are played with four matches at the same time.
On the first day of the group stage, a total of five rounds were arranged.
Team Phoenix only had two BO2s today, and after playing against Team LFY, their match for the day was completely over.
By this time, everyone had already started to watch the other teams play.
"LGD is playing well." Liuliu looked at the computer screen and said to everyone.
In the first round of the group stage, LGD defeated FNATIC with a 2:0. Next, they took Empire with a score of 2:0.
Now it's the final round of the first matchday.
LGD Team vs. Secret Team.
In the first game between the two sides, LGD is about to win.
In the face of LGD's attack, the secret team seemed to have not woken up, and was constantly pressed and beaten, completely without its own rhythm.
Judging from the current situation, the LGD team took away the secret 2:0, and it shouldn't be a big problem.
"The old godfather has had a bumper harvest this year." Lin Feng was also watching the game between the two sides, and analyzed it carefully for his teammates: "This year alone, two of them have entered the main competition. ”
"Both the LFY and the LGD did well today."
"Coupled with the CDEC, which is known as the reserve team, the background of the old godfather department is still quite deep."
Hearing this, the pillow on the side didn't matter, and said: "There is only one champion shield, even if they send a hundred teams to participate, they may not be able to win the championship." ”
"And that's what LFY is all about."
After Lin Feng heard this, he kicked the other party with a smile, and then scolded with a smile: "Don't look down on others, if you keep being so light on the enemy, we may have to let people send them away." ”
After being kicked on the pillow, he suddenly became much more honest and said aggrievedly: "I just had a good mouth, but I didn't think so in my heart." ”
Seeing that the other party confessed, Lin Feng no longer cared about it.
He opens the event screen and starts looking at the results of the rest of the teams.
On the first match day of the group stage, several teams in the region performed well.
The NB team scored 3 points in two BO2s and only lost one game.
Team LFY had just lost a BO2, but they had also scored two small points.
As for the rest of the IGV teams, they are the ones that perform the least well. They only scored a small score in the two BO2s. To qualify for the upper bracket, they will need to work harder.
After watching all the games, it's time for the players to move freely.
After Lin Feng rehearsed a few rounds alone, he returned to the room very early to rest.
In order to ensure good competitive fitness, he did not participate in many other activities that were not related to the competition.
Because he always thinks that those things will only distract him.
During his time at TI, playing well was all he needed to do.
......
Nothing was said all night.
On the second day of the group stage, the game will start as normal.
Team Phoenix's first opponent today is a very strong VP team.
This bruising bear from the CIS region has performed very well in all competitions this year. Especially at the Kyiv Major, they also reached the Grand Final.
This was when he met Phoenix, who was in hot form at the time, and finally only won the runner-up.
"Old rivals." Lin Feng sat on the gaming chair and thought to himself.
He had just gone through the other party's various information, and then prepared various plans in his mind.
For competitions, he has always liked to prepare well.
"Hello audience friends. You're tuned in to The International 7 Group Stage Day 2. Stanny, who was the commentator for the game, was the first to speak.
"It's going to be a match between Team Phoenix and Team VP."
"I think we're all very familiar with these two teams."
Beside him, another commentator, AA, nodded and said, "That's right. Team Phoenix is a new team on the rise in our country, and they have proven themselves to be a good team. ”
"And the VP team is also loved by many people because of its very characteristic style of play."
"The match between these two teams, I don't think it will disappoint everyone."
While talking, the first game between the two sides entered the BP link.
In this game, the Phoenix team chose the Radiant side and gave the right to Ban and choose first to the VP.
The first two hands of the opening were banned, and the VP team banned Clockwork Technician and Enigma. Subsequently, they chose Lane and Juggernaut.
On the Phoenix team's side, they banned the elves and Rikimaru, and then pointed out the Ice Maiden and the Sand King.
They all chose the Soy Sauce position heroes, and they didn't show their carry at the beginning.
On the three- and four-handed bans, the phoenix team bans the corpse king and the ice dragon.
VP disables the Queen of Pain and the Silencer.
In the following three or four hand selections, the Phoenix team took the lead in taking out the steelback beast and TA.
And the VP team took out the Axe King and the Wine Fairy.
The last hand, the Phoenix team gave the blue cat. They think the other side will make up a single hero.
But the truth is not what they think.
After the VP team banned the Lumberjack, they unexpectedly took out a terrifying blade.
The split of the opposing lineup has been revealed, and the Phoenix team has taken out the last hero, the Plague Mage.
After the lineups of the two sides are confirmed, it can make it difficult for the commentary.
"Why are the heroes chosen by these two teams so hard to guess?" Stanny was confused at this point.
"On the Phoenix team's side, TA, Bristleback and Plague Mage can all go to the middle lane, and they can all play the No. 1 position. These three heroes can swap positions. ”
"And the VP team took a single Sword Saint in his hand, and then took out a support Brew Fairy."
"It's not a regular lineup."
"Let's see what they can do."
......
Then in the hero selection session, Lin Feng clicked to TA.
At this point, their position allocation has finally surfaced: Big Brother Plague Mage, Mid Single Ta, No. 3 Steelback Beast.
The match enters the loading screen.
Phoenix: Plague Mage, Ta, Bristleback, Sand King, Ice Maiden
Daredevil (VP): Terrorblade, Juggernaut, Axe, Brewmaster, Lynn
As soon as the game starts, the two teams begin to greet each other.
:“gl,hf。 ”
:“gl,vigoss god。 ”
"Damn, disgusting, huh." Lin Feng couldn't help but scold.
But he didn't care about fighting with the other party, he hurriedly came to the triangle rune, and after controlling the bounty rune, he stuck the line and came to the middle lane.
His opponent is still Noone, and this little fat man is not an easy character to deal with.
Lin Feng began to focus on the right line.
The opponent's game is the Sword Master's walk, and his TA is not a good fight against the Sword Master.
In the first few minutes of the early stage, the two sides fought five or five.
Lin Feng's TA was a little uncomfortable in the early stage, but after the level came up, he was not afraid to fight with the other party. Therefore, the gap between the two sides is not large.
After the fight, the VP team changed tactics.
They told the Brewmaster to leave the lower lane and come to the middle lane to help the Juggernaut. In this way, the VP team formed a short-lived two-on-one.
Lin Feng's ta-ching is very uncomfortable.
There was no way, he had no choice but to shake people.
The Sand King of Six-Six left the upper route and began to help in the middle lane.
The middle lane was originally a dozen and one, but now it has become a "string" against a "string".
The four people in the middle lane began to consume each other frequently, and Lin Feng, as the middle laner, still put the mending knife in the first place. In the middle of the crowded road, he maintained his own economy.
With the time comes 6 minutes.
On the side of the Phoenix team, the Sand King took the Ice Maiden to the middle lane. After the two of them opened the fog, they waited at the entrance of the Night Cube wild area.
Lin Feng pushed the middle lane under the opponent's tower, and then approached his teammates.
At this time, the VP team wanted to come to the middle lane to support, and was caught by the Phoenix team.
The chubby ice girl first took control of a [Ice Seal] future, and then the sand king of Liuliu took a hand to pierce it.
Lin Feng's TA is to make a hidden knife and take it away in the future.
He also got to the first head of the game.
At this time, the line matching period has passed, and the live director switches to the economic panel. Lin Feng's TA, the economy is still ranked first in the audience.
"Vigoss..... Why is it the first after the alignment period? ”
"Because he's a vigoss!"
"This is hard power, no matter who you fight, no matter what hero you use, he will always take advantage of the lane period."
"Awesome, worthy of my idol - vigoss."
"This is the real reason for the good results of the Phoenix team, they never suffer in the middle, which is equivalent to steadily occupying the advantage of the road."
In-game.
The clock was nine and a half minutes.
After Lin Feng pushed the middle route over, he came to the main field area to fight.
His TA has now reached level 8 and is about to reach level 9. After clearing a wave of Ancient Wilds, he gained experience and successfully reached level 9.
At this time, the middle lane has already been fighting.
The VP team wanted to get their hands on the Sand King, but they lost some of their output and were finally escaped by the Sand King.
But they were still unwilling to give up, and chased them all the way to the bottom of the first tower of the Phoenix team.
At this time, Lin Feng's TA returned to the middle lane in time.
The trap slows down the opponent's Juggernaut, then turns on the [Refraction] and follows him, giving the Juggernaut a set of flat A, and covering his own Sand King.
The rest of the Phoenix team all TP down, and they chose to fight back.
The chubby Ice Girl froze the Juggernaut and forced the Juggernaut to hand over the invincible slash. But the damage of the invincible slash is fully divided, and it has no effect at all.
Lin Feng's ta unleashed a stealth blow, knocking the Sword Master to the point of residual blood.
The Sand King of Liuliu was already bleeding, but he had been watching in the woods behind, and at this time, a piercing blow controlled the Sword Saint in place.
Lin Feng didn't miss this opportunity, gave another flat A, and finally took away the Sword Master.
This was followed by the one-sided pursuit of Team Phoenix.
They chased from a tower in the middle of their house to the altar of the Night Magic Cube, chasing and killing the other Axe King and Lai En all the way.
A wave of 0 for 3 in the middle lane will directly blow up the VP.
After Lin Feng's TA took away the head of the Sword Saint, the economy increased again. With 12 minutes of play, he managed to get his own Darkness.
Total economy 7400.
Prosthetic legs, the Aquila Ring, the Annihilation, and the Magic Bottle.
He had already left the other two big brothers far behind.
"Hit the shield." Lin Feng commanded.
He knew in his heart that the other side would definitely not come to pick up the group at this time. Because the VP team at this time has no combat effectiveness at all, opening the group on the front is equivalent to sending it.
In the next 12 minutes and 30 seconds, the Phoenix team got the first generation shield.
Of course, this shield was given to Lin Feng.
After getting the shield, they caught Lynn in the opponent's triangle. Lin Feng went down with a knife, and in the future, he melted and collected another head.
The ensuing match was the time for Team Phoenix to press.
Relying on the unsolvable fat with a shield, they pushed the first tower in the middle lane, the second tower in the upper lane, and the first tower in the lower lane of the Night Magic Cube all the way.
At the same time, he had a full field of vision in the opponent's wild area, and then stayed in the opponent's half of the area, forcing the VP team to play mahjong on the high ground.
In 14 minutes, Lin Feng made a jump knife.
At 19 minutes, he made up a push stick and waited to form the Hurricane Halberd later.
After knocking out the second tower of the Daredevil Middle Road, they stood on the high ground of each other.
Lin Feng's ta, Meng Tao's plague mage is in charge of tower A.
But the VP team's ability to defend the tower is also not weak, and their Axe King has made a jumping knife, a set of combinations to kill the plague mage in seconds.
The Phoenix team knew that they couldn't fight, so they retreated.
When the plague mages were resurrected, they made a comeback.
At this time, the sand king of Liuliu had already taken out the jumping knife, and Meng Tao's plague mage also had an extra jump.
The Phoenix team has three jumping knives in hand, and they plan to be second.
After pushing the middle lane line to the high ground, he saw the opponent's Sword Master closing the line under the tower.
Six-six's Sand King jumped directly, and then the plague mage took on the big move, and Lin Feng's ta hit a hidden blow.
A set of bo, directly kill the sword master in seconds.
In order to defend this high ground, the VP team Juggernaut chose to buy it back, and the economy has completely failed to keep up with the first echelon.
"Withdraw first, and the next wave will be second." Lin Feng commanded.
Then the game time came to 22 minutes.
Lin Feng's TA already has a total economy of 13,000, which is twice the economy of Noone Sword Master.
Meng Tao's Plague Mage and Pillow's Steelback Beast economy were both in the first echelon, and their advantage at this time was large enough.
At this time, the five members of the VP team opened the fog, and they wanted to find one last chance.
The two sides meet in the Daredevil Triangle.
Liuliu's Sand King jumped his knife and pierced, directly stabbing the opponent's Sword Master, Axe King and Wine Fairy.
The plague mage jumped over and gave the ultimate to the Juggernaut.
Lin Feng's TA then followed, and a set of outputs went down, killing the Sword Saint again.
The sword master buys to die, and the VP team hands over a big brother when the war starts.
Noone disconnected directly and withdrew from the match.
At this time, the team battle in the triangle continues. After losing a wave of team battles, VP had no choice but to knock out GG.
"The little fat man's mentality has collapsed!" Stanny quipped.
