400 Olaf!
After a long ordeal, the group finally landed at Los Angeles International Airport.
Chen Dongqing has landed at this airport for the third time, and he looked at the surrounding scenery, stunned with a familiar taste.
Each team can only send a maximum of two players, and the one in the QG team who came with Chen Dongqing was, of course, Uzi, who was also leading in popularity in the same position.
As for the remaining three positions of Nakanosuke, they were filled by Doinb, factory director, and Liu Qingsong.
Because FPX entered the semi-finals this year and lost in the hands of QG, it can be called the runner-up of hard power, and it has greatly attracted a wave of fans, and now it is the No. 2 team in the LPL.
Liu Qingsong received such blessings, and finally narrowly defeated Meiko in the popularity ticket, and won the All-Star spot together with Doinb.
Of course, Liu Shao, like Chen Dongqing, is also reluctant to run out of the country, and he has an SM face from getting on the plane to getting off the plane.
But Chen Dongqing's mentality is better now, nothing else, it's still the same sentence - it's all here.
The all-star lineup of LPL has caused a lot of discussion at home and abroad.
Because this lineup is really outrageous.
If you put aside the jungler for the time being, isn't it the 16th version of the champion QG?
This lineup came out to play the All-Star Game, and it was pure to bully people!
There are many fun people abroad, and they even gave full play to their P map skills and directly awarded the LPL an all-star championship trophy.
When the plane landed, Chen Dongqing took out his mobile phone, switched on the airplane mode, and reconnected to the network.
He opened WeChat to see if there was any new transfer information recently.
Now that there is only one week left in the transfer period, the major teams have basically announced their lineups, but because of the requirements of the league, they still hold on.
But of course, there is this relevant information in the group within LPL, so Chen Dongqing can understand it in advance.
Now that the league's slots for the S8 season have been confirmed, the number of teams has officially increased from 12 to 14.
The two new teams added this year are, one is VG, which has been promoted through the LSPL championship, and has retained last year's lineup.
One is a Rogue Warrior RW sponsored by ROG, who forcibly bought a spot through their money ability.
In addition, because of this year's ultra-high seat fees, some large capital has replaced small capital and entered the market one after another.
Taobo Sports, which is backed by Belle International, acquired the DAN team and officially changed its name to TOP, and this team has LPL domestic champion on the list - 369
JD.com acquired GT, renamed the team JDG, and also launched the banknote ability to buy special purchases, and this time the top order they bought was this year's FPX top order, Zoom.
As for GT's original top order, GimGoon, chose to join EDG.
And EDG's original single A Guang is to join FPX
The three of them simply played a large-scale wife swap play, and changed the three top singles in circles!
It is obvious that this transfer period is basically dominated by road transactions.
After Marin got the FMVP, it was Chen Dongqing, a super top laner, who was born.
Counted in a row, the upper unit has taken FMVP three times in a row.
Now there is a view among professional teams all over the world that a good top laner is a must if they want to win the championship.
In response to this situation, several of LPL's top orders were almost robbed crazy by major teams, and even the salaries of the top orders were rising.
It can only be said that it is very true.
Chen Dongqing swiped down the chat history and saw that the manager of the FPX team sent another transfer message: Karsa officially signed a contract with FPX.
It was obvious that Karsa from this world line would not be able to join RNG, so after taking a turn in the transfer market, he finally chose last year's semi-final team, FPX.
Following this transfer news, FPX sent out their lineup for the new season:
Top laner Ah Guang, jungler Karsa, mid laner Doinb, bottom laner Lin Weixiang plus Liu Qingsong.
Chen Dongqing tasted this lineup, but nodded secretly.
To be reasonable, this lineup is not weak, as for where the ceiling is, it's hard to say, you have to see.
Chen Dongqing slid down again, and saw EDG's lineup list this year.
Top laner Kim Gong, jungler Haro, mid laner Scout, ADiboy, support Meiko.
This list, at a glance, is actually a bit small. But that's not the point, after all, ED isn't a day or two.
The point is, Clearlove doesn't appear on the list.
When Chen Dongqing saw the list, he couldn't help but turn his head and asked, "No, Ming Kai, are you going to retire directly?" ”
"Definitely retire." Ming Kai smiled: "I'm old, I can't play those young junglers, and I've been scolded for staying on the field, so it's better to retire and give young people a chance." ”
"How can it?" Uzi smiled and joked: "I feel that except for the little peanut and the fragrant pot, you are all casually beaten." ”
"That's useless." The factory director said without changing his face: "I play professionally to go to the championship, and there are two people I can't beat, which means that I can't win the championship, so it's better to retire comfortably." ”
"Indeed." Chen Dongqing said happily: "Lao Deng should also retire." This all-star I will take you to win the Korean team again, and then retire and enjoy life, and I will help you fulfill your championship wish! ”
The factory director glanced at Chen Dongqing, and the eyes of the dead fish seemed to depict the four big characters of "Little Cub".
Everyone did not waste time and quickly rushed to the hotel to check in.
Most of the all-stars who came this time, from players to coaches, are from QG, and according to QG's practice, a version meeting will be held for the version of the game after landing.
Although the director of the factory is not from QG, he still has to follow the local customs.
All-Star coach Banbazi looked at the players in front of him, and then looked at the Los Angeles seascape outside the window, but inexplicably evoked a special memory.
It was these guys who won the Summoners Cup a year ago, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
It's a pity that the incense pot didn't come.
"Actually, the S8 preseason has been updated for a while, but it's been the offseason recently, and I'll look through your ranking records, except for Doinb, the rest of you don't seem to have the habit of playing games in the offseason. So I'll start with pre-season. ”
Banbazi didn't ink, and quickly opened the finished PPT, which was the integration of the two versions that had been updated in the last month.
In the S8 season, the biggest version change is, of course, the revision of the rune and talent system.
This time, the rune system has been removed and integrated into the talent system, and now you will get different additional stats when you select a different set of talents in the main item.
As for the talent stats, the changes are also quite significant.
Today, there are five major families of talents:
Resolute [Immortal Grip, Aftershock, Guardian] (with Resolute as the main item, you will gain an additional 130 HP)
Juggernaut [Electrocution, Predator, Dark Harvest] (according to the hero's attributes, provides adaptive +11 attack damage or 18 mana)
Precision [Attack, Deadly Rhythm, Quick Pace] (18% Attack Speed)
Sorcery [Alley, Comet of the Arcane, Phase Rush] (according to the hero's attributes, provides adaptive +15 attack damage or 25 mana strength)
Enlightenment [Cheats of Unsealing, Glacier Amplification, Theft Omen] (Enlightenment is slightly special, the main item will increase the duration of the potion by 20%, and at the same time provide attributes according to the series selection of the sub-item)
It is worth noting that there is no conqueror in this version, and if Chen Dongqing remembers correctly, this key talent will not be updated until version 8.6.
That is to say, in this version, many warrior heroes are still orphans who are not loved by grandpa and grandma.
Behind this talent, there are actually a lot of issues to consider.
First, this version of the talent system, in terms of damage, is definitely far better than the old version.
Second, although the current talent provides attributes, it is actually not double resistant.
If you choose sorcery, domination or precision, it doesn't have any defensive attributes at all!
Now that the rune is gone, where can I make up for the missing double resistance?
The solution given by the designers was to decide to increase the armor of all heroes by 6-20 points, while also increasing the health of some heroes.
But this is clearly not enough.
Today's tanks are not bad, after all, they can rely on the talent of the resolute department to make up for Tandu, but the C position obviously does not have this channel.
Hero damage is higher overall, but the C-slot is brittle. Hero positions are more subdivided.
It is not difficult to imagine that an era of damage overflow and C-bit mutual seconds is coming.
"On top of that, there are some changes to the key mechanics of the version." Banbazi continued: "The incense burner attribute was directly cut in half, the value was changed from 20-35% to 5-20%, and the experience chase mechanism was also cut down"
The experience chase mechanic has now been changed to only provide 50 experience points for large mobs, which means that a group of jungles can add 50 experience points at most, and the operation of F6 and stone beetles directly chasing 480 experience points as before no longer exists.
One knife to cut the incense burner, one knife to cut the experience to catch up with the mechanism, QG is actually still a victim.
But this wave is quite acceptable, these two things themselves are too supermodels, and they are indeed things that should be cut, and if they don't cut, they are the designer's magic.
"Other than that, there's nothing else to talk about, just a general direction today."
Bnabazi continued: "There is too much content in the version update, it is not a meeting to simply talk about it, anyway, the game is still the same, and there is no problem with your hero pool, when the time comes, we will choose the hero according to the version." ”
“ok。” Banbazi closed the PPT, and then said, "Then, let's talk about the personnel of the solo competition." ”
This year's All-Star has no bells and whistles, only 5v5 matches and solo matches in eight major regions.
Let's not talk about the main match, eight into four in the group stage, and then four into two in the semi-finals, and Bo5 in the finals.
The solo competition is two people from each competition area, one is voted by fans, the other is appointed by the coach, Chen Dongqing is undoubtedly the one voted for, and now it is to talk about who the second player will play.
All eyes were on Uzi.
AD is already popular in playing SOLO, and Uzi's Solo strength has always been top-notch, and reasoning makes Uzi the most reasonable.
But. Uzi waved his hand and said, "Whoever of you likes to go, I won't go anyway." ”
Ever since Uzi was happily carried away by Chen Dongqing in the final of the SOLO tournament last year, he has already understood.
No one in this world can win Chen Dongqing.
Haven't you been cut by Jian Ji, or haven't you been kicked by Qinggang Shadow?
If he pulls out a skateboard shoe, how do you solve it?
SOLO race, dogs don't participate!
Everyone looked at each other.
That's what they actually think
"Then I'll go!" In the end, it was Doinb who decided to give it a try.
Banbazi nodded: "Okay, that's you." ”
That's the end of the simple meeting, and the next thing is to wait for the game to begin.
Taking advantage of this time, the other four people dragged Chen Dongqing to play five rows of American clothes on the grounds of looking for a feel.
Of course, Chen Dongqing didn't refuse, he really had to familiarize himself with this S8 version.
Although I haven't played for so long, in terms of the choice of heroes on the road, it is actually not much different from the S7 World Championship, anyway, Jace Kenanner will definitely not be bad, and the new hero Orn has not had any impact on the ecology.
The new hero Orn can be called an unaffordable Adou, the designer has enhanced it four times, and the hero's stats have been increased to the level of a supermodel, but because he is a pressure-resistant tank hero, it has not attracted much attention.
I'm going to resist pressure, I won't play Stone Man?
Of course, as a reborn, Chen Dongqing knows how powerful this version of Orn is, but it still needs to be developed.
Time flew by, and it was soon December 8th.
Day 1 of the All-Star Game.
Chen Dongqing got up in the morning and came to the training room, and saw a figure already playing hard in front of the computer.
You don't have to look to know that this person must be Doinb.
Chen Dongqing glanced over and saw Doinb playing Zoe.
This is a new hero that came out with the S8 preseason, and Orn, this hero's super POKE ability fits perfectly into this version of the C-position mutual second, which can be called the peak of debut.
Doinb has always been diligent, and he has been practicing a lot during this time.
But it's a pity that this hero doesn't seem to be compatible with Doinb, and it hasn't had any effect, but the score has dropped
But Doinb is not in a hurry, he believes that hard work pays off, and he will be able to master this hero sooner or later.
Chen Dongqing looked at Doinb's back of practicing Zoe, and felt a little embarrassed in his heart.
At this time, Doinb obviously couldn't imagine that he would spend his life for the hero Zoe.
In the afternoon, All-Stars from eight regions gather in the North American LCS studios for a four-day All-Star schedule.
The All-Star schedule is simple, too.
In terms of the main competition, the first two days are the group stage, and the eight divisions will be divided into two groups of AB to start a round-robin round-robin, with the top two advancing to the third day of semi-finals and the fourth day of finals.
LPL is divided into Group A, and they are in the same group as North America, Southeast Asia and Brazil, the intensity is not high, as long as you don't send it, you can win by playing casually.
The SOLO competition is 16 people, and they advance one round every day, and the fourth day is also the finals.
LPL is going to play two group games today, and Chen Dongqing has to play a SOLO match after the end.
But it's okay, because the opponent is not strong, and the pressure is not great.
In the first game against North America, Chen Dongqing gave the North American audience a little face, and chose a dog head to stack Q diligently on the road.
But Uzi's EQ was low, and he directly took out a small cannon that was the most impressive, and with the factory director + Doinb, the super daddy Nakano, he was stunned for ten minutes and penetrated the lower road of the senior brother.
In the second game, against Brazil, Chen Dongqing, who had been silent for a game, reappeared in the rivers and lakes, directly selected an Olaf top single, cut the big bug into a muggle for Brazil's top list, cut from a tower to the high ground, and chased the Brazilians who hacked three gourd babies to death to save their grandfather all the way, without blinking their eyelids!
2-0, LPL firmly occupies the first place in the group!
After the game, several people in the LPL did not leave the court, and they still had to see the results of Chen Dongqing and Doinb's SOLO match.
Chen Dongqing's SOLO was the highlight of the All-Star Game, and he was directly the first to play against Brazil's top laner, VVvet.
Poor Brazilian, who was just cut by Chen Dongqing Olaf, turned out to be cut again.
Chen Dongqing played with a lot of excitement and once again selected Olaf to fight against VVvet's Verus.
In the early stage, Chen Dongqing endured the humiliation, so he relied on the Q skill to make up the knife and push the line, and waited until he returned to the city to make up the cloth armor shoes and the watcher's armor, and directly rushed to the tower, relying on the numerical crushing, and forced the opposite AD Verus to be hacked to death under the tower!
VVvet was stunned when he saw himself being cut by Olaf again, but when he saw Ilex grinning over and shaking hands, he still stood up honestly and stretched out his hands to shake each other.
At this time, the barrage was also crazy, calling Chen Dongqing to engage in mentality.
After Chen Dongqing, Doinb also appeared on the stage after a few games, he chose his champion Sindra, against Zoe of the ruler emperor, and the two sides came up with passion for A, and in the end Doinb was better, dodging Zoe's Q, relying on shorter Q skills, to win.
On the first day, LPL won all four games!
Okay, well, my side killed the ruler emperor and won all four battles
The reality is that it was blown up by the Korean team, right?
Although I felt a little suspenseful when I saw our Asian Games lineup, I didn't expect to be directly crushed by two.
It's really not as good as Uzi now.
Sorry, I got the wrong title yesterday. Hang another one today, brothers, take care of it
