A week before the start of the game.

Fujii is warming up for the opening ceremony of LGD and RNG.

On the 19th.

Without waiting for the alarm clock to ring, Xie Zhenying suddenly broke away from the dream, opened his eyes and saw the ceiling with wooden grains.

Yesterday, I heard the team leader Brother Chen say that he would gather in the training room at half past three in the afternoon.

Just remembered that the day before yesterday in the training match, he was stabbed by Cvmax in public and couldn't get off the stage, so he held back his strength in his heart. He knew that the instructor was right, that his tank was a little less proficient compared to his warrior heroes.

But the problem is that he used to play games, and he only needed to break through the top road. Even if there is something on the other side, you can pursue a stable line.

But playing the front row is not this kind of thinking logic, many times, the priority of the front row is to help teammates eat damage, top position, save the dog's life when teammates are doing things, and judge whether it can be wired.

For this half a month, he gave most of his time to heroes such as Sein, Shen, Bobby, and Big Tree. To be honest, these hero skills are relatively simple, and the difficult point lies in the judgment of timing.

I just woke up and my consciousness was still a little unconscious.

Glancing at Tarzan, who was still sleeping next to him, Xie Zhenying controlled the sound and touched into the bathroom.

20 minutes later.

Looking at the refreshing shape in the mirror, he was slightly dissatisfied with the fact that there were a few pimples on the lower right side of his lips.

That's the price of staying up late and eating a late-night snack.

After being silent for a while, Xie Zhenying slowly opened the door and went downstairs to the training room. Right now...... It's not at all, and you can play a few hot hands in the ranks.

With this thought in mind, he walked to the corridor outside, the sun was shining on his body, he only hoped that in today's game, he could play better, be more stable, and be less found by the audience and coaches.

Thinking of this, I feel a little apprehensive.

Because he has watched Letme's performance in the minor league, he feels that this person is quite powerful.

Also, I don't know what heroes RNG will choose for Letme?

It would be nice if everyone played meat together.

Yes.

Xie Zhenying felt that after practicing so much, the coach seemed to only want him to play meat and teach him how to get stuck in the defensive area in team battles. It's easier to practice than to pull in a group, and he's used to PP pointing out the target when playing a group.

Entering the training room, Xie Zhenying subconsciously walked to the left to find his usual position. After walking a few steps, he realized that there was a figure that was earlier than him.

"Brother Hao......"

Before the words came out, Xie Zhenying found that Qin Hao was wearing headphones and should not be able to hear it.

He wondered, why did Qin Hao come down to train?

Could it be that there is also pressure on world champions?

……

For this first battle, I slept at half past two last night.

It's not that it's pressure or anything, but Qin Hao feels that the first game has more meaning than other regular seasons. Maybe he still wants to see a good start in his bones and verify whether the recent training is useful.

From November 7th to January 19th, which was nearly 70 days, Qin Hao did not stop ranking. For last year's World Championships, Qin Hao actually still has a lot of ideas to try.

It's just that he's trapped in the hero pool, and he can't take out some lineups.

Just like when he was in the ranks, he played Ruiz and met Nakano of Yasuo's barrel, and he was more impressed. Qin Hao felt that the pair of midfield combinations were quite good at preventing Ruiz's big move from entering the field and moving on the line.

Because the coordination method is very rough, if there are more people in the teleportation array, the wine barrel can press the position with a big move, and Yasuo will press a round of blood first, and break the position by the way.

If it was a fake teleportation array, Yasuo and the barrel would continue to look for opportunities to cut the back row. As long as it is well coordinated, it is quite restrained from the C position without displacement.

On top of that, there's Rox's dual-acceleration Boolaf. It seems that only Rox can play the taste, but Qin Hao didn't practice Kalmar mid-laner and time mid-laner much at that time. I'm not sure how to stand in an emergency.

Other than that......

Qin Hao was actually a little excited.

I haven't played an official match for more than 2 months.

Qin Hao misses the stage lighting and the audience very much. Especially when you sit in that position, it is easy to notice the good or bad operation by the audience and the director, and you will definitely feel very energetic, right?

At least that's how he feels, and the cells all over his body are more active than usual.

This feeling reminded him of when he was studying.

Every time a certificate of merit was handed out at the meeting, and the outstanding representative of the class stood next to the principal to speak, he was very envious. He thought about standing on it himself, so that he could talk to his friends about the scenery he saw above.

Maybe.

He still wants to be someone else's child in some people's mouths.

Then turn your head.

Qin Hao saw the big wolf sitting in his position and skillfully opened the single row. He didn't even know when the big wolf came.

“Langx？”

"What's the matter, Brother Hao."

There were only 2 of them in the training room, and Qin Hao corrected for the Nth time: "It's really not good, you call me by my name, or call me PP." ”

Xie Zhenying could guess what Qin Hao wanted to say next, isn't it that I'm only 18, according to my age...... Right, then what sounds weird, don't listen to C Bo coaxing.

But he just thinks Qin Hao is very good.

Maybe he was a little afraid of being excluded before, but after getting along for almost a month, Xie Zhenying can still figure out that C Bo is a trickster?

He knew, but he was willing to shout.

He felt that Qin Hao not only played well in the alliance, but also had a strange personality. I usually take care of him, and I don't hurt him when I send him. Sometimes he stressed to everyone that if he didn't play well, he would accept being scolded.

It's just that when it comes to Qin Hao's mouth, most of the time there are only "Nice, big wolf", "big wolf plays well", "this wave of skills is very critical", "look at xx in the next wave, pay attention to the field of vision".

The most dick is that he has been continuously targeted, and Qin Hao will not be warm.

He can't do it, sometimes he plays very aggrieved, and the temperature comes up all of a sudden. Seeing Cvmax's looming sneering face was even more unbearable.

He almost had a fight with Cvmax that day, and he regretted it a little afterwards. But at that time, it was very excessive, he had just practiced Sain, how could the ultimate move be so good. The opposite side of the horse is not a bad pen, and I saw Sain Kaida standing still in place.

An hour later.

Cvmax put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked into the training room very leisurely.

Seeing that Nakagami was training, he showed a moment of surprise, and quickly hid it. These days, he's heard a lot about the LGD team members from Heart.

In Heart's eyes, Qin Hao is the honor student. Whether it's a professional attitude or a game mentality.

Slightly regretted him.

Such a player is not good at playing his abilities as a coach. Sometimes he really wants Qin Hao to talk back, but unfortunately, this situation has not happened for the time being.

But remembering a certain troublemaker, Cvmax's momentum came up again.

He likes to embrace a life that is challenging enough.

……

Hongqiao Tiandi.

Lounge.

Firerox is cheering up the team.

"Training and the main game are two different things. When we play against them, we just need to pay more attention to the disappearance of the middle lane and then communicate more. ”

“……”

is about to fight Penicillin, and Xiaohu is thinking about how to fight.

In fact, the coach is right, pay more attention to the disappearance of the middle lane, avoid losses, and they can play against LGD. Not to mention Solo, he didn't kill Penicillin alone.

It's just that when I get to the arena, the opposite side is a little steady, unlike when I was Solo, I will fight to the last drop of blood.

"We're waiting for the incense pot to find a chance, they can't play well on the road, the first one we try out of the cree, hit the back row of LGD, what do you think?"

"Okay." The eldest brother spoke.

After LGD's victory, Uzi has been motivating.

Although in the eyes of some viewers, his competition is not as stable as IMP.

Uzi has heard the same thing.

But in his opinion, teamfight harvesting is only part of the task of AD. If you can play an advantage on the line, why not do it?

As for being at risk?

Any decision is risky.

As long as he can win, the audience will only remember the wonderful operations he left behind, and will help forget those mistakes. He had long understood this.

So.

Against a weakened LGD, although they have lost more small games than won in previous training matches, as the coach said, there is still a difference between games and training matches.

The pressure that comes out of the heart in the face of mistakes is different.

……

"The version hasn't changed much, we don't need to think about what hero will be chosen on the other side, just ban. Remember what I said, it's just the regular season. It's not time to press yet. ”

As Cvmax spoke, Heart sat in the middle of the team and offered encouragement.

"What's more, we also lack an understanding of RNG. That little bit of training wasn't enough. Let's do it, let's choose from the middle and top, let's play the jungler first, and then the lower support, and match the lineup according to the situation in this order. ”

Actually, Cvmax did his homework.

But he didn't feel like he needed to take it so seriously.

He just wants to put a lineup that RNG is comfortable playing with to see if the players can play.

For the new season.

The heroes of the World Race Fire have been more or less slashed, and the biggest adjustment should be Kenan, because of the thunder, the fist changed the ultimate animation.

It turned out to be a particularly cool thunder ring, but it became a bit monotonous, and it also cut a first-level ultimate CD to prevent Kenan from entering the field too much.

In addition, Ruiz's passive of overloading the rune was chopped, and the shield algorithm bonus was cut; Minor skill changes to Enchantress and Poodle, as well as the urgent weakening of the new hero, Green Steel Shadow, to slash sprinting into a sprint.

However, judging from the recent trend of training matches, the popular heroes are not much different from the World Championships.

In addition, the jungle area has been changed.

Increases the explosion fruit, the honey candy is real, the divination flower increases the detection of the vision unit to send a reminder sound, and the red and blue buff's small followers are gone, F4 becomes F6, the stone beetle will split, the toad has a decay attack speed, and it hurts to hit people in the first 2 seconds.

Then there is the experience adjustment of the whole wild area, most of the wild monsters have been cut experience, but F6 has been increased.

Although the jungler can also buff and add 2 groups of wild monsters to three, the experience that can be upgraded to 4 requires six groups, instead of farming five groups to four, and at the same time, punishing wild monsters can restore HP and reduce the cost of clearing the weak jungler.

Around five o'clock.

The audience poured into the live broadcast room.

"Haven't started yet? It's late again. ”

"I've long been used to being late, and the announcement is always not on time."

"LGD Rush Rush."

"I can see Penicillin playing cards again."

"Kick back and relax in the opener."

"Little Tiger is pure and green."

Since LGD won the championship, there have been more memes surrounding LGD players.

During this period, some people in the anti-bar were curious about who had the biggest fluctuations in Penicillin's strength, and the yellow cards searched for a circle and set their sights on Xiaohu.

I don't know if I don't use a magnifying glass, and I'm shocked when I use it.

RNG has played LGD three times, and the average KDA of Xiaohu is negative. The most interesting thing is that Xiaohu only plays LGD, and the state is wrong.

Playing other teams, you can also see the reasons for the ups and downs of performance.

"I'm curious about what hero Xiaohu chooses today, I see him ranking and practicing rock sparrows."

"Not only Xiaohu is practicing, Faker plays live every day."

"The Sparrow isn't going to be the hottest hero of this year's Spring Tournament, is it?"

"No way, Penicillin's rock sparrow is too fierce."

"If you can't beat it, join in."

"It's time to test the strength of both sides."

"Laugh to death, Letme is not a newcomer, he has played in RNG before."

"No impression......"

Pre-match support rate.

LGD and RNG have a terrifying 9:1 support ratio.

Just like some stereotypes, Xiaohu's play against Penicillin has not been ideal-

It's not that fans can't accept losing, but Xiaohu is too prominent, and losing makes people raise blood pressure.

You must know that RNG has had a good competitiveness since the establishment of the team.

Passers-by have high expectations for RNG.

As one of the team's double Cs, the audience can't have low requirements.

It can be seen from last year's head-to-head record.

Xiaohu is so invisible that the director doesn't want to give the camera a lot of times.

With the champagne remarks of the RNG fan green garlic substitute at the time.

The effect of the two-person counterpoint is too top-notch.

Although Qin Hao said during the live broadcast that he had a good relationship with Xiaohu, the audience didn't care about this.

They only saw Xiaohu work hard to build a reputation, and then he became ill when he encountered LGD.

Xia Du is the most classic.

Uzi has an advantage in the lower lane, and Xiaohu can't stop Penicillin;

Uzi plans to develop for a while, and then the upper half is inferior, and Xiaohu still can't stop it.

Xiaohu fans are crying.

They also hope that when Xiaohu plays against Penicillin, he will make more efforts and lose with highlights. can't really respond to the words of some sunspots.,What starters can't beat the substitute.,RNG has a peerless good vision.。

The club is shameless, and so are they, the fans.

Anyway, after the total number of forests, the 'background board' attribute on Xiaohu's body is the strongest.

"I hope to show some strength today."

"I don't know why, Xiaohu is in good shape against Rookie, and the state is okay, but it's ......"

"It's not that some people are stressed every day. I haven't beaten Rookie, but no one will chase Xiaohu and laugh. ”

Fanbase.

People who support Xiaohu are discussing.

"It's true that Penicillin is out of play and too easy to be ridiculed."

"Then why can Xiao Hao have a normal heart?"

Seeing this, someone fell silent.

"Admin, admin, fork out the fake fans!"

And for some viewers who knew that LGD won the championship and returned to the pit.

Most of them even watched the finals and were curious about Penicillin's strength.

It's a new season.

It's a mule or a horse, you have to pull it out for a walk.

……

After the host warmed up, he called for the IDs of the two teams.

On the left, RNG stepped out of the background music and won applause from the audience. But when it came to LGD, the director changed to a more enthusiastic BGM, with a strong drum beat and a synthesized sound, which is quite catchy.

"Let's welcome the 2016 League of Legends World Championship with the warmest applause ......"

The cheers from the scene were like to tear down the roof of the shed.

Uzi couldn't help but tilt his head to watch the LGD crowd appear, and was very envious in his heart. I remember that in the previous summer game, LGD didn't have any fans, and the applause was very sparse.

As a result, a champion is better than his three-year career, and this stepping horse is too cool.

“…… Midlaner, Penicillin! ”

"Let's go for the spring game!!"

"My name is PP, a mid-laner immortal."

"If I am the Green Emperor in his year, I will bloom with the peach blossoms."

In front of the audience, there were suddenly a lot of cheering cards.

Mixed in the audience, Song Ming looked left and right and was very excited. That's what he wants to see.

Walking towards the battle seat on the right, Wolf X was still chasing Eimy and asked, "Brother Hao is so popular." ”

"Brother, Brother Hao has a lot of female fans."

"Don't do it, it's going to be a game, let's talk about something useful."

"Did you hear Brother Hao's words, let you stop arguing." C-Bo helped translate.

Qin Hao: ......

Commentary seats.

Miller saw that the audience was cheering for LGD, and sighed with a smile: "Speaking of which, Xiaohao is 18 years old. ”

"Xiaohu is also very young." Doll cavity.

"Yes, in my eyes, Godv is considered a mid-laner of the previous generation, but in fact, Godv is not very old."

"No way, who let Godv play professionally earlier."

After winning the first championship in the LPL region, Miller's mentality relaxed a lot.

Just like seeing the start of BP, LGD banned an incomprehensible wheel mom on the blue side, Miller bluntly said: "It feels like this hand doesn't seem to have any effect." ”

Follow.

LGD second ban, blockade Lulu, Miller laughed. He saw LGD's intention to open up the popular heroes.

Not to mention that they don't know what Ming is good at, even if there is intelligence in the LGD training match and knows that Ming Lulu is playing well, then there is no need to block it with a ban position.

Next to it, RNG obediently pressed Ruiz and Vi.

Seeing that LGD didn't care, the incense pot was a little unhappy: "Take a champion and put it up, who are they banning?" ”

"It's a bit excessive." Letme accosted.

When teammates think LGD is not very good.

Only Xiao Ming had a serious face. He was a little afraid of making a mistake.

to the third hand.

LGD blocks the tree, and RNG presses down the green steel shadow. In the training match, they hadn't seen LGD play Qinggang Shadow. But they knew that Langx was playing.

Miller laughed: "This hand is a big tree...... There's no need. It's a little regrettable that Qinggang Shadow was banned, and I couldn't see this hero's LPL debut. ”

Doll: "It's normal, just look at the expressions of the RNG players, they take this BO3 very seriously. ”

C-Bo is still laughing.

I was amused by the big wolf's sentence "Brother Hao, how do you want me to play".

The first round of banning is over.

Miller said: "After the game turned on the five-ban mode, the requirements for the hero pool were higher. Like last year, some teams restricted LGD, and they would adopt a three-ban mid-laner. If you change it now, the extreme point can be five ban mid-laner. ”

"LGD's new BP coach seems to be communicating with his teammates. I'm a little curious about what LGD wants to choose in the first game.,They're bans.,A little can't see the tendency.。 ”

"It's good if you just say it's more difficult." Miller joked with a smile: "Wheel Mom, Lulu, and Big Tree are not the heroes that RNG likes to play." ”

Cvmax doesn't care what the outside world thinks.

Blue chooses, and he proposes to take the praying mantis.

"Praying mantis?"

After checking the situation with the translator, Eimy was a little dizzy.

The most he has practiced recently is to take the initiative to open a group, and then the coach asked him to choose the 7.1 mantis that was strengthened by the small reinforcement. Then you might as well choose a poodle. Since the poodle's Q was changed to a breakthrough and there is a second-stage effect, the recent ecological niche of the poodle is to brush the wild quickly and harvest fiercely.

A little better than a praying mantis.

But Eimy was too embarrassed to refuse.

"The praying mantis on the first floor?!"

"Eimy wants to build an advantage from a single point."

The 2 commentators were a little surprised.

The incense pot said disdainfully: "Do you have anything to come out of?" If not, give me the blind monk. ”

Coach Firefox pinched the small notebook and reminded: "How is the snake girl Gattam?" If Eimy doesn't start a group, they will need Nakajosuke to make up for it. ”

"Okay."

Uzi felt that there was nothing wrong with the coach's analysis.

Thinking of Qin Hao's czar, he felt that the lineup idea of limiting the rush and strong backhand was not bad.

The first and second floors on the right are locked with Snake Girl and Tam locked.

Uzi said: "The third floor is for the policewoman, they should not ban the blind monk." ”

Firefox: "Okay, go out of Kereh on the road, and go to the middle and late stages of the policewoman Tamu on the bottom road." It doesn't matter if this lineup is inferior in the early stage, our position is very strong. ”

[The little tiger snake girl hasn't been sealed yet? 】

[Get up from where you fall, come on Xiaohu, and break the demons. 】

[Hey, on the first day of the group stage, the little tiger snake girl won a game, right? ] Do you only remember the games you lost? 】

[Is it possible, that win is not the credit of the snake girl. 】

[Winning is no credit, and losing is the biggest pot.] Can you not double standard? 】

[Say what's wrong with Xiaohu? The biggest war criminal in the world can't be said? 】

[It's not as good as Mata's loyalty to the country. 】

[So Mata is out, when will your little tiger get out of the RNG.] 】

In the cheering sound of the full screen, there are still quarrels.

On the left, Cvmax asked for Verus and Blonn on the second and third floors.

Then the RNG third floor made up for the policewoman, and the open card went offline Xiaoyou, and wanted to transition to the middle and late stages.

to the second round of banning people.

RNG targets the mid lane, removing the Czar and Ice Girl, and LGD blocks Bobby and Excavator.

Miller: "Again, I remember that the incense pot rarely used an excavator. ”

"It doesn't matter." The doll struck haha.

Then the fourth floor of RNG made up for the blind monk jungler.

"What's this ban on LGD?"

The audience reacted that the five bans of LGD seemed very abstract.

"What's this new BP coach called?"

“Cvmax。”

"Coach Brush."

"Don't want to spend money to keep MaRin, and then find such a valuable coach?"

To this point.

RNG is all exposed.

Miller analyzed it and felt that LGD was out of the middle single clockwork, and the lineup was okay to make up for the front row on the road.

And then—

"Weapon plus Cassadine ???"

"Who will protect whom?"

Miller is a little suspicious that he doesn't understand the game enough, and the hero's active group opening attribute is very weak, so it is known that Bron has increased the strength of the small group in order to protect the line.

The praying mantis is to establish an advantage for single-point development, and it needs to help the praying mantis create an opportunity to collect residual blood online.

Follow this logic.

LGD's first three hands were selected, and under the premise of lacking AOE and limiting RNG standing, it was more reasonable for Clockwork to set up an order that could sell blood.

And the weapon and Cassadine are the heroes who will put pressure on their teammates in the early stage.

With these five together, how will Verus play?

How much AD space is there in teamfights?

Will the weapon last until it's time to replenish the armor?

Miller's CPU burned.

He has commented on so many games, and the abstract lineup is not unseen, but he feels that LGD was not so abstract last year.

"Does LGD want to drag the three-core out of the mountain? Weapons, Cassadine are strong in the late stage. ”

said.

RNG 5th floor lock Kree.

Doll:......

Miller: "This one is a good hand, although the one in the World Championships is a little strange in terms of operation, but I feel that the train of thought is fine. The mechanic of the hero is suitable for fighting fast regiments. Moreover, I make it very good to punch the back row and can go to the output bit of the card AD. ”

Doll: "Kereh, blind monk Ghatam." RNG, this Uenosuke, is a bit fierce and has a strong ability to keep people. ”

Miller: "What do you mean?" My policewoman is not strong in keeping people, is it? This is Uzi's policewoman, and she has a high win rate. ”

Doll: "You said it, I didn't say it. ”

“？？？”

"The two of them are performing cross talk on stage?"

"Grass, this B lineup can only count on weapons to suppress Kree on the line."

"Rely on Verus in the middle of the game, and then don't choose the lineup that can keep it?"

"Bad, Penicillin's Cassadine, I don't play in my memory."

"Awkward black, I've played in rank."

"Qualifying, too? We're not talking about competitions now. ”

Background.

Sask wasn't particularly shocked by the abstraction of his lineup. It can only be said that the audience has never seen LGD's training match. Some of their lineups are more abstract than this, have you ever seen four guarantees and one protection jungler?

Cvmax dares to try!

According to him, I haven't specifically learned how to know the strengths and weaknesses of the lineup. If you can win by hand analysis, what else can you do with a coach?

Sask only agrees half of this view.

Sask agrees that the coaching staff's job is to identify other possibilities, but some of them don't need to be tried at all. Feel uncomfortable at a glance.

The game is loaded, and the lineup of both sides is as follows-

LGD (Blue) Top Lane Weapon, Jungler Mantis, Mid Lane Cassadine, Bottom Lane Verus Gablon (Weak)

RNG (Red) Top Single Kree, Jungler Blind Monk, Mid Lane Snake Girl (Sprinting), Bottom Lane Policewoman Gatam (Weak)

Cvmax walked with the wind and returned to the lounge.

Heart was also puzzled, asking, "I've practiced so many front rows before, why don't you choose it?" ”

Cvmax said as a matter of course: "Who stipulates that you have to choose after practicing?" I think the first one has to help the road to get the signature hero. ”

"Then let the mid lane take control."

"You think there's something wrong with my choice?"

You've just found out!

Usually, if you win a small game in a training match, Heart can still understand. It's just that he didn't expect that on such an occasion, Cvmax's presence would still be so high.

"As long as we can get up in the middle lane, our late win rate is very low?"

"What?"

"Watch Penicillin play, such as Cassadine suppressing the snake girl on the line and pinning down the opposite Nakano ......"

He said it right.

It seems that Penicillin should become a savior and prop up the situation.

Sask silently mourned his brother for two seconds.

With such a deliberately high-tech coach, Sask wasn't sure what other games Penicillin would face in the future.

To be honest, he couldn't have guessed.

Because Cvmax doesn't take notes, it's not that he doesn't understand the version, and he is not a layman, compared to Heart, Cvmax still has a Hanbok Master number.

But he just didn't choose.

In the afternoon, I went to the county to get stuck in traffic......

(End of chapter)
