In the training room, Mafa sat on the coach's desk, looking at the chat box in confusion, and the players played GG Smecta.

5 games with 2 wins and 3 losses.

IG's 41-point push tactics that wreaked havoc on the LPL in the post-regular season seemed to be full of holes in front of KT.

In the lane period, IG's middle and upper can still rely on his personal strength to fight back and forth with the opponent, and even Chu Ge completed the counterpoint kill again.

KT not only did not release water, but went all out.

It seems that IG is really regarded as the LCK Summer Finals opponent - Rox Tiger.

Fly in the middle laner took out five unique Dragon Kings to line Rookie, and the cooperation with Score was seamless, and IG Nakano confrontation was repeatedly heavy.

Compared with the experienced Score, Ning Wang still lacks a little experience.

Even Bengi was hit hard at his hands, not to mention Gao Zhenning, who had just been transformed for less than half a year, and Bao Daliu's style of play just hit someone else's gun.

However, to the surprise of the coaching staff.

In these five training matches, the performance of IG's bottom lane combination made Wang Boqin's eyes shine.

The strength of the Korean AD lower lane to the line is not high, and it is even said that it is much more stable than the domestic lower lane fairy smash brawl.

With the same equipment, Wuxin and his opponent Arrow's output ability in team battles is almost the same, and they even play a few waves of beautiful harvests.

However, in the middle and late stages of operational decision-making and the detailed handling of team battles, this IG team composed of 3 new and 2 old still has less experience.

In the end, they lost to KT, which had just defeated SKT.

The players were a little frustrated.

The regular season defeated the league hegemon 2:0, continued the winning streak, and won the semi-final ticket with a crushing momentum in the 6-4 finals.

There is a gap in anyone's heart.

Chu Ge is okay.

After all, it's not S3 anymore, and under the high-intensity training of professionalism, the era of one-sided operations like Faker and Ryu crushing and relying entirely on personal strength to affect the battle situation is long gone.

Chu Ge was able to help his teammates win the team with the advantage of the lane, and the process itself was full of uncertainties.

It wasn't until 1 a.m. that KT's meritorious supervisor Li Zhixun called to stop the training match, and Wang Boqin also told his teammates to rest early and review tomorrow.

"Shanyan, you kid is a good mix!" Li Zhixun on the other end of the phone praised unceremoniously, "We only played 3:2 with SKT today, and the winning rate against Rox Tiger is also 55, you can play this record without any preparation, it is beyond my expectations!" ”

Training matches are kept secret outside of the agreed two teams, mainly to avoid the tactics and lineup system practiced from being discovered by other competitors.

Therefore, this kind of training match will not leave any record in OPGG.

"Brother Jixun, don't praise these boys," Mafa chuckled.

"This training match has exposed too many problems in the team, I feel that if I don't pay attention to it, the opponent will grab this pigtail and kill us!"

Lee Ji-hoon is a senior practitioner in the Korean OGN circle, he was in the Dota circle in his early years, and then joined the League of Legends league and helped KT gain a foothold in the league with Dota's coaching method.

is also considered to be Mafa's predecessor, and it is normal to call Brother Sheng.

"Stinky boy!"

Li Zhixun scolded with a smile, "You can find the problem yourself, don't try to set up information with me, maybe we will meet at the global finals." ”

"I see that you have a little bit of points in the spring, and if you don't win the championship, you have to play in the bubble match, SKT automatic No. 2 seed." Mafa said.

Hearing this, Li Zhixun sighed.

Before Mafa could continue to speak, there was a noise on the other end of the phone, and it was a long time before I heard Li Zhixun continue, "Xia asked me to say hello to Song Yijin. ”

"These two boys had a good relationship when they were in the KTA."

"That's right. He also said that the newcomer in your team, Dow, had a good time, and I hope to have a chance to continue the competition next time! ”

"He."

Mafa smiled, "I'll tell you the truth, I really feel like I've picked up a treasure, this kid makes me see the momentum of my old teammate Li Haocheng." ”

Li Haocheng, the real name of SKT top single Duke.

Whether it is KTB in the S4 period or Najin Black Sword in S5, they are the top offensive top laners in the LCK league.

However, after transferring to SKT, he was called Du Buchuan, and his playing habits completely changed to the shape of SKT.

The two continued to greet each other for a while, and then hung up the phone.

"This is the result of the data calculated by the software, and we will try to arrange the tactics tonight"

Tabe yawned, his dark circles made his dark circles stand out from the intensity of work and lack of sleep.

To be honest, after the Banana Project took over the LPL, the schedule was too tight and intensive, which was a big challenge for the players and coaching staff.

Players have little time to recuperate.

High-quality training matches like this can sacrifice the players' personal time, and the coaching staff not only has to analyze and review, but also lay out the tactics.

IG is pretty good now.

After all, according to the normal schedule, if you lose the semi-finals against RNG, you will have to play a few BO5s in a row with other teams to have a chance to participate in the World Championship.

The format itself is a bit unreasonable.

Next.

Early in the morning, the coaching staff began to review.

Unlike Chu Ge thought, Mafa did not explain too much about the mistakes that occurred in the training match, but focused on the players' ideological problems.

The whole process lasted almost 2 hours.

King Ning and Baolan have become the hardest hit areas of criticism, which makes them extremely upright in their thinking now, and they are very deeply aware of their mistakes.

But whether it will be changed or not has to be said separately.

After all, this is in IG, and it's not EDG that can solve the problem by spreading his hands with a bear, it all depends on the player's personal consciousness.

Not only that, Mafa also entrusted Wang Boqin to make tactical adjustments for tomorrow's game.

After Chu Ge listened, he only felt a chill down his spine.

GDX, sure enough, the heart of playing tactics is dirty.

Meanwhile.

RNG's base is doing the same.

Head coach Fly pointed to the sand table of the summoner's canyon with a laser pointer and explained to the players below, "The third game between IG and WE has largely exposed the problems of their entire team. ”

"The number of times the visual field control rate and Nosuke linkage is extremely low."

"The number of Nosuke linkages can also be attributed to the fact that Jungler Ning mainly plays in the upper half of the area, and rarely interacts with the lower lane, which is understandable."

"Field of view control" Fly held his glasses, glanced at the players in the conference room, and said solemnly, "This is also the core tactical point for us to defeat them tomorrow." ”

Mata pursed her lips, her eyes shining.

As the first auxiliary FMVP player in the S4 World Finals, he can be called a grandmaster-level player in terms of vision control.

It has always been a blessing to fight the enemy's shortcomings with one's own strengths.

"There is no doubt about the personal strength of IG's mid-to-upper players, which is obvious to everyone, so I won't repeat it more."

"I emphasize the drawbacks of IG's 41-point push."

"It's okay to play single-lead in the middle and late stages, and the most important thing is the other four people of IG."

"The low rate of visual control means that they have a hard time avoiding battles."

Uzi raised his hand, "Then we can take advantage of the vision gap and have a teamfight with the other four members of the IG on the front!" ”

"That's right! Reward you with the little tiger's Bobo. ”

"Tut-tut."

"You're a dead Gay, Li Yuanhao!"

"Don't make a fuss just yet," head coach Fly waved to signal the players to calm down, "but there is a precondition."

He looked at Jang Hyung-suk, who was bowing his head and contemplating, "Looper, you're going to fight Dow again tomorrow, can you resist him?" ”

Jang Hyung-seok slowly raised his head.

There was a surge of fighting intent in his calm eyes, and he nodded heavily, "I was careless in the spring game, and I was told by this kid." ”

After saying that, Looper's mind automatically made up what Chu Ge had said to him in the elevator room earlier.

Siba's. I've been waiting for this day for a long time!

August 14th.

Chu Ge and the others got up early.

Whether it is the team members, it should be said that the staff in the base got up very early, after all, today's game was scheduled at 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

After washing, eating breakfast, and taking two bananas in his backpack, Chu Ge boarded the minibus with the team members and headed to Hongqiao Tiandi.

In the car, after the coaching staff emphasized the tactical design arrangement, Chu Ge leaned on the seat in a comfortable posture and brushed the e-sports forum boringly.

The discussion between Tieba and Tiger Pounce, the discussion about the semi-finals of today's two games, has already started after the team list came out.

As the time for the competition got closer, so did the discussion.

Among them, the anti-bar and pot bar, known as the e-sports Louvre, are full of various prediction stickers and scoring stickers.

Another hot search post caught Chu Ge's attention.

"What do you think of IG vs. Spring Champion RNG, can Looper, who is known as a hexagonal warrior, withstand Dow's offensive pressure"

The following replies are as high as 999+, and the number of likes has broken 4000.

[This post is not sent by the dog's son, I am upside down X electric fan]

【Dow？ Are the drawbacks of the hero pool so serious? Can you still fight Looper? laughs]

[I really thought that if I ate the rookie bonus in the spring game, I could be compared to my Looper]

[Why?] Laughing to death, with Dow's sword Ji in front of your licking daddy, I scored a 14/0 record]

[Say that Dow hero pool is shallow, please open your 36D titanium alloy dog eyes and see how many heroes he has taken out so far]

Well, this can't be considered a normal post.

It's kind of like fishing.

As soon as the skewers came out, the blacks and whites had to be silenced.

The e-sports netizens who surfed the Internet in 2016 did not have the strong taste of anti-÷ that the group of later generations with full attack power.

For example, what [RNG3:1IG, no chopping X], [RNG spring and summer double crown, IG luck team], similar posts, are everywhere, and the vast majority of netizens are guessing β blindly.

Swiping and brushing, another post caught Chu Ge's attention.

[The duel between the two generations of RNG ADC, is it unintentional to prove itself, or Uzi proves that the orthodoxy of RNG is in the royal RYL! 】

The content of the post is very long, and it is estimated that many impatient people quit when they see a lot of words, resulting in low popularity.

Chu Ge was bored anyway.

I feel like I don't have a mobile phone when I go to the toilet, and I even have to read the formula of the shampoo twice.

[Confirm your identity first, I'm an RNG fan, a sanity fan]

Ignoring 1/3 of the nonsense, Chu Ge went directly to the text

[It's very different from RNG's tactical thinking, IG is also a team that plays the top half of the region, but there is also a big difference between the two:

RNG starts with Nakano as the core point to radiate the upper half, and Mata will often abandon Uzi to wander in the upper half.

Since IG joined Dow, the focus of the entire team has shifted from Rookie to the top lane, and the original midfield rhythm point has become the upper field rhythm.

Mention the current IG team.

Many people still have the impression that Allah is the dean of the chicken, and it is difficult to connect with the team that is now good at 41 points.

The reason why this is so, in addition to benefiting from Dow and Rookie's super personal abilities, there are also points that everyone has not seen

This point is also the lower road that is often criticized by dog sons.

ADC, Wang Cheng!

It is no exaggeration to say that Wang Cheng's ability to press beef noodles Nami in the S6 Spring Tournament helped the team win the spring championship, and he was also able to withstand SKT's bottom lane combination on MSI.

It is enough to show his strength.

For IG, the bottom lane does not need to be strong in suppression, nor does it require extremely high operation, and the biggest contribution is to be able to stabilize the output without sudden death.

Clearly, Wuxx did it all.

It's a pity, though.

The arrival of Uzi.

The two ADCs of RNG, which were originally rotated, were devolved to the minor league, and the other was sold to IG.

Today's game is as the title says]

Before Chu Ge finished reading, the minibus slowly drove into the parking lot of the Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center, and the enthusiastic cheers of the fans came from outside the car.

After sharing the post with Wang Cheng, Chu Ge put away his mobile phone and walked into the staff channel with the team members.

Registration, makeup.

After finishing it, they each started the hot hand training on the computer in the break room.

The competition was scheduled too early, so the contestants didn't dare to eat too much at noon, so they went to the snack street on the basement floor to buy some pancakes and fruits to eat.

At 12 noon, the audience began to enter the venue one after another.

RNG Lounge.

Fly suits and leather shoes, arranges notebooks, and arranges tactics.

"I'll help you ban Kenan and Nar, who IG is best at 41-point pushing, then Lucian and Jace will be released, if you give Jace, can you beat Lucian?"

Hearing this, Looper thought for a moment and nodded, "I can fight." ”

There aren't many players in the top laner who can use Lucian these days, but for Looper, Jace doesn't have any problems.

As for the question of countersexuality.

In just one day, the RNG coaching staff's mind was on studying the solution of IG's 41-point push, and it was too late to think about the problem of hero confrontation.

No way.

In the stereotype of the times, Jace on the road has no opponents at the moment.

"Incense pot, I'll ban the keg and let you take the Gank of the Spider Main in the upper half of the district, is there a problem?"

Liu Shiyu nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, Coach!"

"King Ning's wild area and Dow's head, I want them all!"

They had repeatedly researched that the hero that King Ning used the most was the wine barrel, and the hero's Gank relied heavily on flashes to catch people.

But if the beer man is a squat, E's control and W's damage reduction can take advantage of the 2v2 Ueno confrontation and make up for the lack of unstable control.

In other words, RNG not only studied the upper lane, but also figured out Ning Wang's jungler ideas.

In this semi-final, they are bound to win!

2000 words are missing, and I will make up for it tomorrow.
