Chapter 324: The Quarterfinals! Battle Fnatic!
October 20th!
Bexco in Busan, which is also known as Busan's International Convention and Exhibition Center.
League of Legends players around the world are once again focused on this coastal city in South Korea as the quarterfinals of the 2018 League of Legends World Championship kick off in the city!
The first group of the quarterfinals.
It's JD vs. Fnatic!
It stands to reason that there is no Korean team, and the attention should be average, and with the cautious eye of the Koreans, they may not be satisfied with the scene.
But JD.com, mortal!
These are all names that have brought humiliation to the LCK league in the past year, and the Koreans are particularly concerned about the personal form of JD and Rich, so the enthusiasm for attention is very high.
And even if this time point in China is not a holiday, there are still many viewers who choose to come to Busan to cheer for JD.com!!
It's not.
Before the players were about to appear, the LCK's commentary bench, the CT brother, who is known for his objectivity and neutrality, began his own analysis.
"The JD team, there is no doubt that they are the biggest favorites to win the World Championship this time, and their confidence comes from the mortal player in the middle laner, last year it was the mortal player who defeated SKT in the finals, after leaving IG, he came to JD to change to play the mid laner, but he still performed very well."
"We have to admit that the talent and ability of the mortal players are enough to match the existence of faker, and we have to face the strength of our opponents in order to beat them!"
"I know it's painful, after all, for a lot of spectators, we're used to our league teams killing all sides at Worlds, but we have to come out of the glory of the past, we have to show the attitude of a chaser, arrogant, and immersed in the glory of the past, which will only make us slump!"
Brother CT is indeed very rational and neutral.
He didn't deliberately say something to cater to the audience in his own area, but analyzed it very well.
It is precisely because of this that many domestic audiences like to watch his commentary slice, and there are also some people who understand Korean to translate his slice and hang Chinese subtitles.
"Indeed, the Jingdong team is the object of our observation, today we have to take a good look at what their state is, and it can also make our team have a good preparation in the follow-up, observe their tactics and playing style, and see if we can learn something."
The host came to the top of the stage and looked at the audience with a smile on his face.
"Next, let's have the two sides of today's game on the field!"
"First up is ...... JD gamingοΌοΌ The Roaring Emperor stood on the stage, showing his rich voice, and his hand was raised, and he began to introduce with a long tail.
"Top laner Gimgoon, jungler Karsa, mid laner Mortal, bottom laner lwx, support crisp, coach homme and substitute tian!"
All the members of JD.com came to the top of the stage, and most of the Korean audience at the scene were still indifferent, but they ...... Li Feifei has long been surprised.
The more they are like this, the heavier he will be when he encounters the Korean team in the future!
In this case, it seems that the behavior of the audience who came to support them is so precious.
"Then, let's have Fantic!" Roaring Emperor introduced again, "Top laner Bwipo, jungler Broxah, mid laner caps, bottom lane rekkles, support hylissang, coach Dylan Falco!" β
All members of the Fnatic team also came to the top of the stage with smiles on their faces.
The players on both sides were lined up on both sides, one on the left and one on the right, and the Roaring Emperor stood in the middle, and he said with a smile, "A wonderful showdown is about to be staged, so let's wait and see!" β
Only then did the contestants return to their seats in the back.
The equipment and the like had already been debugged, so the players didn't need to be temporarily adjusted, and after the referee had made a simple decision, the players all entered the custom room created by Riot, and then the referee announced the official start of the match.
The director also switched the camera to the game footage of the two sides!!
"It's still the same, because JD is the first in the group, so in the quarterfinals, they have the right to choose the side first, and JD takes the initiative to choose the blue side......"
"As soon as Jingdong came up, he chose to send the demon queen to the ban position, and Fnatic banned the sword demon!"
"It seems that the current BP priorities have not changed much!"
Then JD.com sent the crow to the ban position, and Fnatic chose to ban Akali as well.
In the last hand of the two sides, JD banned Luo, while Fnatic banned the crab.
Although Jingdong can grab it in the blue side, the value of Luo's hero is not high enough to grab it, mainly Fnatic's auxiliary player is sent away, this person plays very oilily, and when he gets a hero like Luo, he has a special voice, and he is a master of chaos.
Opposite...... Hey, when you get other support heroes, the performance is not so perfect!
"Sister Dao is outside, let's see if Jingdong will grab it?"
Huh!
Jingdong really grabbed the knife girl directly, and there was no reason for this hero not to choose.
And Fnatic's side is also very direct, directly choosing Zhao Xin + Sindra, a very strong midfield combination.
JD.com immediately made up the bottom lane combination of Bull Head + Rock Sparrow in the back hand, and Fnatic selected Bloom on the third floor.
The two sides entered the second round of BP.
Fnatic gives Kai'Sa and Lucian a ban, while JD sends Captain and Orn to ban.
Outcome.
Fnatic directly grabs the wheel mom!!
"It's coming, it's coming! Ou Cheng's signature wheel mother! Miller said with a smile, "Ou Cheng likes this hero very much, and he likes this kind of brush-type big core hero, so the pace of Fantic's game has not been fast." β
"It's also understandable why Kai'Sa and Lucian were banned." The guest of today's commentary seat is Umbrella Genshuo, who used to be OMG's lower road player Liang Xiao Umbrella, who was nicknamed Umbrella Emperor.
As a former professional down-roader, he has a unique understanding of the down-road, "Kai'Sa is not afraid of the wheel's mother, and the team battle is even more Tianke Wheel's mother, because the wheel's mother's heads-up ability is not strong, and she can't be beaten by Kaisha's flying face at all, as for Lucian's words, it is purely difficult to fight on the line, after all, the wheel's mother has short hands." β
"They deliberately left a Xia for Jingdong, and Xia didn't pose any threat to the wheel mother, not even ...... If Jingdong takes Xia, Ou Cheng's wheel mother can develop steadily, and the development curves of these two heroes are highly consistent. β
Mother Wheels needs to suck Blue Knife, Infinite, Green Fork, or Artillery to be combative.
The same is true for Xia, if you want to have sufficient combat effectiveness, you have to have a three-piece set of blue sucking knife + endless + artillery.
The two heroes have exactly the same period of strength, but their strengths are different.
Xia's advantage is that the ultimate can provide herself with a great tolerance rate, and she is also very restrained from the opposite rush, and the advantage of the wheel mother is that the ultimate can accelerate as a group half a tool man, and the hand is long!
Huh!
Don't look at the range of the wheel mother is 500 yards, like Lucian, it belongs to the shortest range of shooters, even 25 yards shorter than Kasumi.
But this hero's hand in team battles is 'long'.
Mainly in the W skill [Catapult], in the S6 period, the wheel mother has experienced a wave of strengthening, that is, after W's catapult triggers a critical hit, the subsequent ejection damage will also be a critical hit.
Wheel Mom doesn't need to take the risk of finding a chance to hit the opposite back row in a team battle, she just needs to turn on W, whoever hits her face will do it, and the ejection damage will naturally bounce to the opposite back row.
So......
Wheel mom belongs to the gear of 'long' hands in team battles.
"Fnatic is here prepared, this down-lane combination of wheel mom + Bron, forcing you to develop steadily with me on the lower road, and won't give you a chance to go down 4 packs of 2." Miller followed.
Wheel's mother has the shield of the E skill to resist damage, and Bronn also has an anti-theft door, and it is extremely risky to want to cross the tower to kill these two people.
What's more important, the hero of the wheel mother's ability to clear the line, as soon as W opens, he throws off Q, and a little equipment is gone, and your line can't be sent to the defense tower, so how can you cross the tower?
And JD.com's favorite thing to play in the LPL league is 4 packs of 2 in the lower lane, because Li Feifei can always get the right to the line in the middle lane, and after getting the right to the line, he will cooperate with the jungler to play 4 packs of 2 in the lower lane, and the benefit is the greatest.
That's what Fnatic is for.
"It's equivalent to forcing Jingdong to fight with himself in the first half of the district in disguise? After all...... Fnatic's three Kaminakano brothers are also very capable individually. Liang Xiaoyu said the other party's tactical intentions.
And how did JD choose?
Redmi did choose Kasumi as the ADC as envisioned by Fnatic.
And in the choice of heroes on the road, he took the initiative to choose Sein.
The jungler has already selected the rock sparrow, so there is no need to go to the lane to make up for the output, but instead need to go to the lane to provide a certain amount of opening and front row damage bearing ability.
"Hmm...... Jingdong's lineup is decent, and the choice is not particularly extreme, I think if it's IG...... Maybe on the road, you will directly pull out a hand of Jace. Miller teased with a laugh.
"It's possible." Liang Xiaoyu also agrees.
But in terms of Fnatic's final selection, it greatly surprised everyone!
Because there are not many heroes to choose on the road, commentators generally speculate that they may be cautious to cooperate with Zhao Xin.
Can......
Fnatic pulled out a hero he hadn't seen in a long time.
Mechanical Pioneer - Victor!
That is, the three hands in the mouth of the audience!!
"Huh? Is Victor on the list? Could it be...... The set that has been very popular in Hanbok recently, with the meat suit Victor who stole money out of the ice boxing master Q? Liang Xiaoyu reacted quickly!
Although he retired, his personal condition was maintained well, and he was able to maintain the level of the strongest king in the national uniform.
It's the kind that follows the version closely.,So I'm familiar with some of the novelties developed by the version.γ
"Wow! This choice...... It's beyond our expectations, this Victor stole money and stole it, isn't Sain's hero online just a pure sandbag? In the late stages...... Meaty Victor is really invincible, I've played with it, as long as the equipment is formed, one person kite five people is really not a joke. β
"It's no wonder that Fnatic wants to save the top list for the last hand, just to see what heroes are selected on Jingdong."
The barrage also began to be discussed.
[It's over, it's over, this one is gone...... I just got disgusted by Victor last night, and I really beat five of us by myself, and I can't beat us to death, and the shield is thicker than Lao Tzu's blood bar! γ
[Not?] What did JD think? How was Redmi's pre-match preparation done? The top order Victor routine, which has been popular for so long, can be unguarded? γ
γHee-hee...... Redmi's BP is average, he's just good at training the team's operational offense. γ
[A BP blows up a group of cloud players, you watched Redmi do BP on the first day? ] It's not the first time he's had a cerebral hemorrhage. γ
[If you don't understand, just ask, is the top order Victor really so fierce? ] So why is there almost no selection in the group stage? γ
[There must have been a team that used this routine in the training match, and then veiled everyone fiercely. γ
The group stage is not common, but half of the black technology that was suddenly taken out was a training match with good results!
The line-ups of both sides were also formalized.
JD is on the blue side and Fnatic is on the red side.
Top Lane: Sain vs Victor.
Jungler: Rock Sparrow VS Zhao Xin.
Mid lane: Knife Sister VS Sindra.
Bottom Road: Kasumi + Bull Head VS Wheel Mom + Bulon!
"There is one thing to say...... Jingdong's lineup as a whole is still a little more aggressive, Fnatic's anti-opening ability is extremely strong, Bronn has a shield, Victor has a position, Sindra also has a group push, Jingdong's team battle is difficult to play, especially mortal's knife sister, the opposite hand Bron's selection is too quintessential. Liang Xiaoyu expressed his opinion on the lineup.
Judging by his understanding of the game anyway.
Obviously, Fnatic's lineup is better, especially the upper and lower lanes are also very comfortable, which is nothing more than a little more pressure in the middle.
That is to say...... The pressure is on Mortal again? His knife sister must stand up and drive the rhythm in the early stage? β
"That's pretty much it, but ...... There are so many miracles that mortal can trust him!! β
on the field.
The expressions on the faces of JD.com's players were relaxed, and they didn't feel that their lineup was terrible at all.
"There's really Victor on the other side." Li Feifei smiled, "Sure enough, I guessed it!" β
"Okay, good, you're amazing." Hongmi also laughed, and then patted Li Feifei's shoulder vigorously, "Then you can take care of him more in this game, our fault tolerance rate is indeed not high, we must play well in the early and middle stages!" β
"Don't worry!" Li Feifei showed a wicked smile, "I will definitely take good care of the other side." β
After explaining this, Redmi left the player seat, took off the headphones, shook hands with the coach opposite, and then turned to leave.
Return the stage to the contestants completely!!
Victor!
Of course Jingdong knows this routine, this routine that has become popular in the Hanbok Passerby Bureau, even if you don't know about it, you will know it.
But why didn't JD guard against this routine at all?
Very simple!
Strong is indeed strong, but this routine is not invincible.
Rather, it has a fatal flaw.
JD!
Just get ready to stare at this hero's fatal flaws to target!
"Brother Ka! Let's teach the opposite side a lesson and let him choose Victor! β
βOKοΌβ Casa readily agreed.
