Chapter 108-Home treatment, let the iron man go!
Yuan Shen felt the enthusiasm of the Parisian audience.

Although TSM is a North American team, the cheers from the audience are no less than those from European teams.

Home-level treatment!
Although many viewers are just following the trend, TSM's popularity is indeed not low.

If we were to rank the popularity of each team in this world championship, SKT would definitely be number one.

TSM is second.

LPL teams compete for the top three at most.

As for why TSM is so popular, it has been around for a long time.

Before the formation, TSM players were already extremely popular.

After forming the team, they became extremely popular in North America.

Since the very first offline games, the audience and fans have developed the "habit" of shouting "TSM" to cheer for the team.

Because the number of fans of other teams was far less than that of TSM, all you could hear during the games at that time was TSM's cheers. That was in 2011.

From S1 to S5, TSM represents the highest level in North America (limited to North America), and the players' live broadcasts and various activities continue to expand the number of fans for TSM.

Because TSM's fans are all over the world, even in offline competitions outside North America, Europe and other places, there are still a large number of TSM fans who come to cheer for them.

However, popularity does not represent strength, and Yuan Shen does not think TSM will cause them trouble.

In today's game, IG was still on the blue side and directly banned Shen, Sona, and Lulu.

TSM banned Crocodile and Gangplank.

Nanny is another newly emerged hero.

Like Shen, the nurse has the ability to provide support throughout the map after level 6. Although she cannot fly to the top lane like Shen, the amount of healing from one ultimate is enough to change the laning situation in the top lane.

In the last ban position, everyone thought TSM would ban Malphite.

After all, this hero's current win rate is 100%.

Everyone who let Tienan's team out regretted it deeply.

But TSM's last ban was for Ryze.

After seeing this scene, not only the audience and commentators, even Fu Manduo was at a loss.

"Iron Man is released, should we take him?"

Jack seemed eager to try.

The person in charge of training Iron Man in IG is KID, but now he can’t be replaced.

He knows a little bit, but not as proficient as KID.

You can play if you want to.

“This is a test.”

Yuan Shen's expression was somewhat complicated.

Damn, is he really a water ghost?

TSM came with a mission today.

The meaning of letting Tienan go is very clear, I bet you can't play!

But what if you lose the bet?

Doing this has no meaning other than allowing the LCK region to find out IG's cards.

But when did the owner become a dog?

It is simply the opposite of Tiangang!

"Take it. If we don't take it, why should we give it to them? Jack, just keep growing steadily."

Yuan Shen made the decision directly.

This unconventional ADC is impossible to play without special practice.

But when KID was playing, Jack was also watching.

There's no problem in just copying someone else's works.

According to his judgment, Jack's proficiency in Iron Man is probably at level B or C. He is the kind of hero whose attributes will be lowered if he takes it.

But Wu Suowei, the hero's strength is there.

As long as the laning phase is not broken, you can still kill people in a team fight with basic equipment.

The Censer monster in S7 has indeed raised the lower limit of ADC. As long as you can develop and fight in a team, the auxiliary can create a Censer and you can spray five people with one blow.

However, the Iron Man in S5 also destroyed the ecological environment of the bottom lane.

In addition, the top lane version is too distorted. No matter how strong the bottom lane is, it will be killed by the top laner.

No matter how weak the bottom lane is, they can still output crazy damage under the protection of the top laner.

"Iron Man, locked it!!"

"TSM is so stubborn!"

"So far, Malphite has been released twice and Gangplank once, and both teams have maintained a 100% win rate!" "Today's teams are all very stubborn. BKT was just pushed down after releasing Malphite, and TSM also chose to release Malphite. Have they entered the trial phase now?"

“I can only say that the layout is far-reaching.”

The doll sighed.

The BP in the group stage will be of great reference value in the knockout stage.

For example, SKT's blue team will definitely ban Malphite, and even Malphite and Gangplank will be banned together.

why?
Three possibilities.

The first one is the hero proficiency issue.

Bang can't play Malphite, Faker can't play Gangplank, MaRin may be able to play Gangplank but not well.

The second type is to be confident in one's own strength, deliberately create confusion, give up two ban positions intentionally, believe in the strength of the players, and at the same time create the illusion of a possible victory, so that the opponent can relax their vigilance and defeat the enemy in one move in the BO5 knockout round.

The third type is an overly obvious trap, which makes you think it is possibility 5, so when SKT suddenly stops banning these two heroes during the BO, you dare not release them.

The thousand-layer pancake routine is all about psychology.

The World Championship version is a completely new version and must be studied from scratch.

The data from the summer season is actually not very useful for reference.

Iron Man, Gangplank, Sword Princess, Crocodile, Noxus, Spider...

How proficient are these heroes?

Did the contestants master it?
All teams are working on this.

Until now, no one is sure of SKT's true thoughts, and no one knows to what extent they are prepared.

But now, TSM has already tried to touch their faces.

If IG does not choose Malphite, there are also three possibilities.

The first is that Jack can't play.

The second is to release it intentionally, believing that the opponent will not choose it.

The third is that even if the opponent chooses it, IG has a way to deal with it.

The third possibility is the lowest, because so far no team has been able to deal with the hero Iron Man.

It is very difficult to resist when Iron Man controls the dragon.

Although Yuan Shen knew how to restrain himself, they did not want to expose himself too early.

TSM's first and second hands took down Kog'Maw and Karma.

Except for Karma who can go to the mid, support or any of the three lanes, Kog'Maw is very fixed and can only go to the bottom lane.

The BP of both sides proceeded quickly, and after TSM selected the mid laner Tsar on the fourth floor, IG selected a hero that no one expected.

In the tower in!

Demacia, Garen!!

The Pullman venue was instantly boiling!!
IG, actually locked up Garen!!

With Nasus, Fiora, and Riven all present, they locked Garen? ?

What is this idea??

The hero Garen is also one of the heavy armored warriors.

But no one has ever been elected.

Because there are so many powerful heroes that it’s impossible to choose from them all!

But now, IG took out Garen.

This is his second appearance in the World Championship!

"We received news that this is Garen's second appearance in the World Championship. The last time was in the S1 season, when the Philippine team PCFC used the combination of Garen and Gem to defeat the then-powerful FNC team."

"Yes, this is also Garen's first time playing top lane in the World Championship."

"Wait, what makes you assume his position?"

Wawa interrupted with a smile, "Don't forget that IG is the most rocking team in our LPL!!"

Miller smiled bitterly, but he also felt a little bit of anticipation.

With TSM's final hero, Maokai, confirmed, both teams' lineups were fully unveiled.

“IG Blue Side:
Top Lane: Garen, Might of Demacia
Jungle Kakao: Spider Queen-Elise

Mid-lane Rookie: Frost Witch - Lissandra

Bottom lane JackeyLove: Metal Master - Mordekaiser

TSM Red Side:
Top Lane Dyrus: Twisted Treant - Maokai
Jungle santorin: Snow Knight - Nunu
Bjergsen: Desert Emperor - Azir
