"Welcome to the opening game of the 2019 LPL Spring Season, hello everyone, I'm commentator Guan Zeyuan!"

"Hello everyone, I'm remember!"

"Today, the two of us will explain this peak competition with a high pre-game pre-heat!" Guan Zeyuan's face was ruddy, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.

Remember to explain the reason: "Everyone can see from Brother Guan's facial demeanor, he specially asked the official to explain today's opening game, if you don't want Brother to tell us, why do you want to explain this game?" ”

I remember to ask knowingly, and dig a pit for Guan Zeyuan with a wicked smile.

Guan Zeyuan smiled unabashedly: "There are two reasons, one is that this game, we have been looking forward to it for a long time, IG has also changed the lineup and competed in the new season with a new look, I just want to see how strong this year's IG is!" ”

Remember laughing: "What about the second reason?" ”

Guan Zeyuan continued: "The second reason is to see if FPX is the only S-level team in the LPL as discussed by the outside world. ”

I remember hearing it and teasing: "I thought Brother Guan was going to say that it was because IG had Brother Crown joined!" ”

"Love is restraint, Brother Guan!"

Guan Zeyuan did not avoid this question, and said bluntly: "Then since you mentioned IG and the crown, I have to say why I rated IG as an S+ team." ”

"Isn't it because there's a handsome and a team?"

Guan Zeyuan just wanted to explain, but when he heard him say this, he thought about it carefully and remembered: "There is a reason for this. ”

"On the other hand, I think that joining can better adapt to the IG system."

"You mean, Rookie doesn't fit IG?" I remember smiling and still digging holes.

Guan Zeyuan hurriedly waved his hand: "No, I mean, in the past, IG's Rookie was a bit condescending, you are like last year, Rookie often took some functional heroes like Galio and Ice Girl, but Rookie is a player whose line belongs to the top midlaner of the LPL, and you let him play this kind of protection and wandering type of mid lane, which is really a bit condescending." ”

"That's different, I know too well, he S6 Victor doesn't know if you remember, but S7 Ice Girl, Marzaha, Galio, Rock Sparrow, he is very familiar with this kind of hero, and IG has the ultimate thigh of theshy, and the middle lane generally has to sacrifice himself."

"So IG brought in this player, I think it's very sensible, and it's also very suitable for the current IG team."

"And Dsome is also a friend, these two are still the two I am most looking forward to seeing, and now that they are working together, I think Ang, this season's IG is anything but extraordinary!"

I remember listening to Guan Zeyuan say a big push, and I almost said that I was a loyal fan of Brother Crown.

"Okay, then after Brother Guan talks about IG, I'll briefly analyze why FPX this season is called an S-rated team by the public."

"First of all, the addition of Doinb is to give FPX a stable command."

"The previous FPX mid-laner was Bing first, that is, the Tsar's pillar power, and then it was replaced by COOL, and the strength of the middle lane made up for it, but FPX always lacked a trace of soul."

"After Doinb came, I felt that this team suddenly came to life, and I also heard from the grapevine that FPX's winning rate in training matches is very high, how high is it, close to the winning rate of S8 peak IG training matches."

Guan Zeyuan listened: "Then when I heard it, I suddenly felt less confident." ”

After finishing speaking, Guan Zeyuan himself smiled.

Obviously, he didn't think that the current IG could compare to the IG at the peak of S8, Rookie, Jack and Ning, three not super top power stars, but they are also an indispensable part of S8IG.

Just like the previous public opinion, why can Handsome play so smoothly on IG.

That is naturally inseparable from the push of teammates behind the scenes.

Rookie, Jack, and Ning, which one is out, isn't the core and leader of the team?

This is the endless self-confidence that Peak IG brings to everyone.

And at present, this IG, although the game has not yet started, always makes people feel weak.

It's not that the strength of the face is weak, but this configuration is still a little lower than the peak IG.

iboy is past his prime, and he is an elderly bastard in the middle lane, yes, even if he s8 kerry has been a whole year, but in the stereotype of the audience, he is a bastard midlaner.

Jungler Leyan rookie youngster, no future at all.

With such a configuration, I feel tired of theshy and handsome when I think about it.

But what can be done?

As a fan, I don't have to support it wholeheartedly.

There are always peaks and troughs when the team comes, and when you can't come to the peak, you will leave the team at the trough, right?

Unless you're a fan, follow the players to change the team you support.

……

The two commentators on the commentary bench finished the pre-game warm-up, and the players from both sides entered the entrance link.

IG: Top Lane Theshy, Jungler Leyan, Mid Lane, Bottom Lane Iboy, Support Handsome.

FPX: Top Lane Gimgoon, Jungler Tian, Mid Lane Doinb, Bottom Lane LWX, Auxiliary Crisp.

Prior to the game, Crisp's taunts were quite strong.

On the one hand, they have abused the current IG team in training matches, and on the other hand, he has been pressed by handsomes before, and now it is finally time to get angry.

Before the game, he also gave Liu Shuai a small dismount.

Liu Shuai naturally greeted: "OKOK, let's set a new rule, whoever loses will have a treat?" ”

Liu Qingsong was full of confidence: "You want to invite me to dinner, don't follow up!" ”

……

After the entrance session, the players of the two teams returned to the event table and started the BP part of today's game.

The Spring Opener was played with the initial version of 9.1.

During this period, the new version of Yin Zeriel that has experienced version 8.20 has appeared.

The original painting designed by the hero has also changed from the original little yellow-haired explorer to a slender and long body.

In terms of skills, it is mainly aimed at the changes to W skills.

It's a small adjustment.

Version 8.21 is a normal version fine-tuning.

Update 8.22 is a version that saw Worlds changes.

Akali is an epic nerf, with an increased cooldown in the early W, which increases the risk after use, and a reduced damage in the early stage and a loss in the late stage.

Kenji has slightly improved the target selection mechanic of Sky Breaker.

Including the Enchantress and Ice Boxing Victor, who have a high appearance rate in the World Championship, have ushered in some more or less nerfs.

What makes the support worth looking forward to is that the hero of Pike has come with a wave of epic reinforcements.

w,e,r increase armor-piercing bonus.

Fist is estimated to be a way to encourage the creation of offensive equipment.

After all, playing Pike now, whether it is a professional or a high-scoring passerby, the equipment that Pike chooses most is the equipment that adds both health and attack power.

For example, equipment such as the Frost Hammer and the Bloody Hand.

With this change, Riot's original intention was to take Pike to what they considered to be an Assassin auxiliary route.

Version 8.23, also known as the preseason version.

The changes in this version are huge.

From heroes to equipment items, to defense towers, to runes, to creeps, to bounty systems, to summoner skills, all the content has been more or less systematically adjusted.

Of course, the most sensual thing is the tower plating mechanic and the bounty system.

These two changes are a major adjustment that affects the professional leagues.

The defensive outer tower has 5 temporary plating. For every 1000 damage a tower takes, the plating is broken by one layer (the plating itself has no health).

Tower Plating provides 40 armor and magic resistance to towers at the start of the game.

Dealing 1000 damage to a defensive outer tower will cause a layer of plating to break, giving 160 gold (to nearby heroes), as well as 30 armor and magic resistance to the tower until the plating falls off.

After 20 seconds of broken plating, towers will also gain the Barrier effect, granting 25 armor and magic resistance to each nearby enemy hero except the first hero. If multiple layers of plating are broken, the barrier effect will also trigger multiple times after 20 seconds.

The tower's plaster will fall off at 14 minutes, causing the towers to lose all armor and magic resistance, and unearned gold will be permanently invalidated.

Such a mechanism allows the online to increase the early confrontation.

In other words, if you get the line right in the early stage, it is possible to get your own additional economy.

There will be a big boundary between strength and weakness.

So, at the beginning of the S9 season, there was a lot of emphasis on the first fourteen minutes of matching.

Riot's explanation is that they encourage players to increase the level of gore on the line.

Instead of choosing a weak hero to shrink and wait for the later stage of development as usual.

Now if you want to wait for the later stage, it depends on whether the opponent will let you wait.

This change can also be regarded as reducing the bladder bureau in the past.

Make the game even more exciting.

In version 8.24, Riot introduces a new hero, Niko.

The poacher's dagger bids farewell to the Summoner's Rift.

Version 8.24b, Alchemy Varus Cannon Airplane Policewoman Enhanced.

A series of equipment, healing and shield strength of the incense burner have also been enhanced.

Bullhead, Cassadine, Snake Woman, Sword Demon, and Neco are weakened.

The price of Tiamat has been increased from 1200 to 1325 yuan, although the total price has not changed in any way, but this small increase will also make some top players very uncomfortable to play.

It can be seen that Riot has begun to change the version for the top order.

Whoever is strong is the usual method of Fist.

Last year, I cut the auxiliary, and this year I cut the order.

The changes in the official version of 9.1 also have a greater impact on the professional leagues.

The first is the adjustment of Calista, tracing back to the historical version, the last version of the popular Calista is still a rune just revised, using the overdose of healing in the talent, the shield of the holy relic and the blood-drinking sword to establish the three-shield flow Calista, Calista was all the rage at that time, and the Calista of the 2018 German Cup also created a lot of famous scenes.

But as Calista became too strong, not only the runes were weakened in the future, but the hero Calista was also weakened.

Since then, Calista has barely played in the ring.

Played only once in the 2018 Worlds group stage, when it was the last match of RNG against Geng, and Uzi and Ming took out the Shadow Isle duo Calista Hammerstone to face Geng's bottom laner Luthianna Mei.

In the end, RNG was also taken down.

It can be said that it is a full-court advantage game.

And since then, no one has played Calista.

The designer also knew that the hero Calista was too weak, so he made a small balance.

Orn's changes are also relatively large, first of all, passive.

Orn can upgrade items (up to 2) when he reaches level 13; After level 14, you can upgrade an item for a teammate for each level.

It used to cost 1,000 yuan to buy, but now it's a free upgrade.

In addition, Q cost, damage, and slow effects are all reduced.

w no longer provides a shield, but adds an unstoppable effect.

That is, the unstoppable deletion at the beginning of the season is now back, but in exchange for the deletion of the shield.

R skill slows down, knock time decreased.

On the whole, it is a balance.

The other heroes basically change between a small nerf and a small buff.

Overall, the only change from the S8 Worlds version is that some new heroes will be able to return to the professional arena.

……

After the background music plays, the blue FPX takes out Lucian, Cyansteel Shadow, and Sword Demon.

Although this version of Sword Demon is slightly weakened, it does not affect his status on the road.

The theory of canyon relativity, all weakened, is equal to no weakened.

The red side IG takes out the policewoman, Akali and the snake girl.

In this version, the policewoman has an excellent performance in the German Cup.

Taobo even won this year's German Cup championship through the female police system, which is enough to show that the status of female police officers in the current version is extraordinary.

What's more, the policewoman who is very smart Lin Weixiang still has to be respected.

Pulling Akali is aimed at Jin Gong, not Doinb, and from IG's current understanding, there is no Zuo Yin in the Doinb hero pool, and there is no Akali.

At this time, the first floor of the FPX locks in Varus.

You must know that Varus is not only JKL's signature.

In the S7 projection represents heroes, iboy's representative is Varus.

At that time, iboy was known for his reaction, and the game in which A dodged the pig girl's ultimate move was also used as a hero, Varus.

It can be said that Varus is also the signature hero of iboy.

There is no problem with fpx first floor snatching this hero.

"Emperor Zhao, your hero is gone, what do you say?" Liu Shuai saw the first floor opposite and grabbed Varus and teased.

Hu Xianzhao glanced at Liu Shuai: "I'm not only Varus, but also Kaisha." ”

Liu Shuai's ridicule has a saying.

Because when IG played training matches, iboy almost had Varus to take it, so Xiao Zhao was generally ridiculed as Varus King in the team.

Coach MAFA looked at the current BP situation and said, "Then Kaisha and Dao Mei ......"

"This knife girl is likely to be given to theshy, as long as the fight on the road is not particularly uncomfortable, it will be given on the road."

Coach Mafa has learned about the Crown's hero pool, and he's better suited to play some functional mid lanes for the current Crown.

Like the new version of the crow, it belongs to the signature hero of the crown.

Of course, Crown has always emphasized that he can also play Knife Girl, but he still doesn't trust the current MAFA coach enough.

Compared to the knife girl, the ice girl crow is obviously more stable.

Saying that, the first round of BP between the two sides ended quickly.

FPX locks Pig Girl Tamm on the second and third floors.

On the third floor, the IG took out the barrels.

During the period, he lit up the leopard girl, originally wanting Leyan to show his signboard, but the leopard girl was too risky.

The knife girl + leopard girl's Ueno or Nakano, without hard control, can only be dumbfounded.

The barrel is a little more stable.

To put it bluntly, there is still not enough trust and understanding of the player's hero pool at the beginning of the season.

However, the choice of stable focus is obviously more convincing for the current IG.
