Chapter 225-A Completely Changing History, National Team Selection
Ren Dong was stunned. He never expected Yuan Shen to say this.
The barrage in the live broadcast room of the event was filled with 666.
"Wow! Is Yuan Shen so confident?!"
Abu in the audience was very surprised, but Mingkai shook his head and laughed.
"This guy has once again put himself at the center of public opinion."
"what?"
The rest of EDG looked at MingKai in surprise.
"What do you mean?"
"He did the same thing last year." Mingkai shrugged and explained, "He made wild remarks to focus all the attention and public opinion on him. Even if he lost the game, most people would think of his arrogant words instead of blaming his teammates. IG is lucky to have a player like Yuan Shen."
"Of all the negative public opinion, he alone might account for more than half of it... This operation is very strange, right? But, it's embarrassing to say it, if someone in EDG is willing to take on the pressure, I will perform better."
Mingkai shrugged. There was something he didn't say, and it was impossible for him to say it.
If Yuan Shen had chosen EDG instead of IG, would the result be different?
However, given EDG's playing style, it would be difficult to give him enough trust and opportunities to allow him to fully display his talents, right?
……
Yuan Shen's speech soon had different translated versions and circulated in major competition areas, making many people feel his confidence.
Fans of other teams certainly wanted to refute, but when they thought of his outstanding performance in MSI and S games from last year to now, as well as Yuan Shen's superb performance in winning FMVP in every tournament, they suddenly seemed to have no basis for argument.
-
Although I was very unhappy, I couldn't find any reason to refute it.jpg.
Again.
Arrogance is the only thing that comes without any achievements or glory.
Having the ability to fulfill one's bold words is the confidence of a strong person.
After the game, the IG club held its usual celebration banquet.
When Principal Wang chatted with other club owners, he always hinted, intentionally or unintentionally, that the club's daily expenses were too high recently, and every celebration banquet would cost at least tens of thousands. He looked like he was having a hard time and wanted to let you experience his troubles, which made other club owners want to beat him up...
So angry.
Domestic e-sports clubs are an emerging industry, and the bosses are almost all a group of rich second-generations, and what they compete for is a face.
How can I not be angry when Principal Wang pretends to be cool every day?
But there is no way, we can only blame our own team for not doing well, and quickly spur them on, let the club's management get closer to IG's model, imitate their training, tactics, ideas, BP...
A successful model is there, and other clubs will naturally follow suit.
The existence of strong teams will continuously promote the improvement of a region's strength.
LOL events have been getting more and more popular and exciting recently. Many corporate groups have been tempted by the benefits. For example, JD.com and Li Ning have already decided to join the circle and are looking for LPL places everywhere. The price of one place has been hyped up to more than 70 million.
It is foreseeable that the e-sports industry will become more formalized and corporate-oriented.
At the celebration party for the MSI championship, the players still brought their families with them. Even professional players who had good relationships with other teams and some e-sports anchors who lived in Shanghai were invited.
While everyone was celebrating winning the MSI championship, the transfer window officially opened and the powerful teams that had been prepared for this made their moves.
The LPL Summer Season will kick off on May 2016, 5. This time point has been engraved in many people's minds.
The two newly promoted teams in the spring season changed their names. The original EPA was renamed GT, and the original HYG was renamed SAT. The two teams finally successfully retained their positions through the promotion and relegation matches and were divided into Pool 3 and Pool 4 respectively.
The transfer period news is in full swing.
However, all the major teams are still waiting and watching.
The first team to reveal its summer season roster was the Snake team.
"In the wilds of Yongzhou there are strange snakes: black with white markings, they die when they touch the ashes of grass or trees; they bite people and no one can stop them."
This is the Snake Club's beautiful expectation for its own team, and the introduction of Jiezou, a commanding support who performed well in EPA, has improved the communication of the entire team.
Introducing the Vietnamese jungler Sofm was a bold attempt on their part.
The only Korean player in Snake's starting lineup, Tank, is not performing well, but with the massive changes to the mages in version 6.9, we may see U-God back on the field again!
RNG introduced the former EDG manager Huang Cheng, which was already confirmed in advance.
NB team, Doinb has confirmed to leave the team and follow the former QG boss Mu Lao Ren to LSPL to form a new QG. Dade has confirmed to be the starting player. It is still unknown whether this man who was once revered as the emperor can transform into the Summer Hokage and lead NB out of the predicament.
OMG, Taobao Quan left and his whereabouts are unknown.
VG, the death announcement of leaving has become an inevitable choice...
As for WE, Khan's performance in the spring season attracted some attention. This young player from LSPL was brought out of WE and returned to LCK.
After experiencing the era of Korean aid, more and more LCK teams have re-examined those Korean aid players who performed well in LSPL and LPL.
Whether it's Rookie or TheShy, or last year's Kakao, or the ten players from Samsung, Gimgoon, Doinb, Swift...
Too many Korean players have performed well in the LPL, and some of them even caused them considerable trouble in the World Championship and MSI.
And the summer season has quietly arrived.
The grouping of the summer season was the same as people had expected.
At 5:18 on May 19, the summer season group draw ceremony was held in the RIOT LCS Shanghai live studio.
Similar to the rules of the spring season, the twelve participating teams this time are still divided into two groups.
Each group consists of one team from the No. 1 seed pool, two teams from the No. 2 seed pool, two teams from the No. 3 seed pool and one team from the No. 4 seed pool.
Group A: IG, LGD, RNG, NB (formerly QG), GT (formerly EPA), SAT (formerly HYG).
Group B: EDG, WE, Snake, VG, OMG, IM (formerly EDE)
Compared with the Spring Split, there are four new faces that will appear in the 2016 LPL Summer Split.
They are NB, GT, SAT and IM.
NB said it was a new face, but in fact it just changed the team name. It was sold in the spring season, but the name was not changed.
Now it has been officially renamed NB. Except for Doinb leaving the team, NB has adopted the full lineup of QG. The addition of Dade makes NB look very good.
Many people are expecting that NB may bring surprises to everyone just like QG did in the first half of the 2016 LPL Spring Season.
The predecessors of GT and SAT were EPA and HYG respectively. These two teams performed mediocrely in the LPL Spring Season and were eventually able to successfully retain their position through the promotion and relegation matches. After changing the team names and management, they have a new look.
As for IM, it was originally EDG's second team EDE. Due to the LPL team's sole ownership rule, EDE was successfully sold and transferred and renamed IM.
Judging from the draw results of Group A, IG is undoubtedly the strongest team on paper.
LGD and RNG's stable lineups and impressive strength also make it very likely that they will qualify for the playoffs in the group. The remaining three teams, whether NB, GT or SAT, may bring variables to Group A.
First of all, NB’s team atmosphere and game status at the end of the 2016 LPL Spring Season were not satisfactory.
Although NB successfully introduced Dade during the offseason, Doinb's departure and the distance between the mid and jungle still made many players skeptical about NB's performance in the summer season.
GT and SAT were the bottom teams in the 2016 LPL Spring Season, but since both teams introduced new players during the off-season, the two teams that changed their names in the summer season may make a breakthrough with new players and new systems.
However, judging from the current personnel composition, GT and SAT are not expected to break out of Group A.
Compared with the variables that may be brought by Group A, the lineups of each team in Group B are relatively stable.
EDG keeps its original lineup unchanged, and their biggest rival is WE, which reached the semi-finals of the spring season.
WE's strong performance in the Spring Playoffs has given many WE fans hope that WE will make a comeback in the 2016 LPL Summer Season.
VG is a team that has made almost no changes to its main lineup during the off-season. After a season of running-in, its players have already developed a certain tacit understanding.
Snake introduced two new people, and new people brought new atmosphere.
After Taobao Quan confirmed his departure, OMG quickly signed back Juejue, the former main jungler of the team. Since there have been few changes in other positions of OMG in the past season, Juejue can basically connect seamlessly with the current OMG, and the strength of the OMG team can be basically maintained.
As the champion of the LSPL Spring Season, IM's strength should not be underestimated after introducing mid laner Athena, who also has veteran players such as AmazingJ.
Before this, Snake and QG were promoted for two consecutive terms and both achieved very good results. Many people were also looking forward to IM's performance.
However, half a month later, an official announcement from the LPL was like a depth charge, causing a huge storm in the entire e-sports circle.
In the 2016 Rio Olympics, League of Legends was officially included in the exhibition match!
Moreover, the General Administration of Sports has also reviewed and approved it!
Although we don’t take it very seriously and won’t promote it vigorously, at least we have given it a chance. There has been no abstention and no ban!
This means that these e-sports big boys from LPL have a real chance to wear the national flag and win glory for the country! !
The impact of winning IGS5 is still felt today!
Of course, winning the MSI championship also brought a wave of popularity to the LPL.
Playing at home, IG won the championship!
In one and a half years, LPL has monopolized the championship of three world championships. Such results are enough to give many people confidence.
The LPL official also issued an announcement.
————Recruiting coaches and analysts from major clubs, discussing the roster, and selecting athletes for the Olympics.
When Yuan Shen heard the news, he was a little confused.
The series of butterfly effects brought about by his rebirth were magnified at the moment! ! !
Being able to participate in the Olympics is due to both the surge in LOL traffic after winning the championship last year and the impact of winning the MSI this time.
The recognition of public opinion and the rise of the young class...
With the accumulation of various factors, this matter finally took the last step and made the final push.
However, the people in the General Administration of Sports were not very clear about how such an emerging industry as e-sports should operate, and they had to consult professionals, which is why they recruited analysts and coaching staff from various clubs.
Based on club recommendations, player performance, and player competition data, a shortlist is first drawn up.
Then, the players on the reserve list will be called together for a training and selection session.
The selection criteria are mainly based on personal strength, and fame and interest factors are reduced to a minimum.
League of Legends is not lacking in popularity, what it lacks is mainstream society’s recognition of e-sports.
And now is the chance.
They must put their selfishness aside and focus on discussing how the roster of participants should be selected and how the team should be operated and managed.
Not only in China, professional players from all major regions around the world are discussing it and looking forward to it.
This is not the Asian Games, where only LPL, LCK and LMS dominate.
This Olympics, the selection is conducted on a country-by-country basis, and everyone has the opportunity to participate in the exhibition matches!
There are no requirements for this exhibition match. The only requirement is...
Country of Citizenship.
E-sports has only been developed for a few years, and there are no naturalized players.
There has been a huge quarrel in the LPL group where everyone loves each other.
Those who have a chance to make the ten-man roster are canvassing for votes like crazy.
Those who do not have the opportunity to enter the main list are also proposing to discuss the players they support.
The mid-lane position is extremely controversial.
Wei Shen, Xiao Hu, Xi Ye, the three domestic mid laners are the most popular. Even Wu Wu Kai and Yu Mi were nominated because of their runner-up performance in the World Championship.
For the jungle position, Xiang Guo, Zzai Zhang, and Yuan Shen also have three choices.
Whether in terms of honors or qualifications, the factory manager is one of the top players in LPL.
However, the selection criteria this time are personal strength, fame, interests and other factors, all of which have to give way.
Facing the new generation of domestic junglers such as Xiangguo, Kangdi and Yuan Shen who has transformed into a jungler, the factory manager does not have an advantage.
Jack, Uzi, and Musto in the bottom lane.
Aya Hirano, Xiao Ming, Meiko in the supporting position...
These two positions are the most difficult to choose.
Because the relationship between ADC and support is not only about strength, but also about the cooperation and compatibility between the two people.
From this aspect, neither Musto nor Uzi meet the requirements, only Jack and Xiao Ming are fixed partners.
Masto’s supporting ability is not strong.
Uzi's support is Korean aid Mata.
Aya Hirano's ADC is the Korean aid Imp.
However, due to their performance in the MSI finals, many people criticized Jack and Xiao Ming's performance.
For each position, there are at least three options.
The biggest problem is actually the top position.
With Yuan Shen transitioning to jungle, the only top laners with achievements and abilities are Tong Yang and Flandre...
The other top laners are either Korean players or just mediocre players with little ability.
"Yuan'er, you will definitely be on the list this time, don't worry."
This is a message from Mingkai.
"Fuck, man, you have to choose me. I have no problem being your substitute."
This is a message from Xiang Guo.
Yuan Shen must be on the roster and is likely to be the captain of the team.
No one would doubt this.
Whether in terms of honor or performance, Yuan Shen is the well-deserved No. 1 in LPL.
The honor of double FMVP in MSI and S League has already made Yuan Shen the most famous professional player.
In the jungle position, Yuan Shen's fame surpasses that of Zzai Zhang and Xiang Guo.
Some people even suggested that Yuan Shen should go to top lane.
There are not many experts among the domestic players in LPL in the top lane position, and Yuan Shen's transformation into a jungler has made the situation even worse.
Apart from Tong Yang, who won an MSI championship and whose current strength is unknown, the only one left is Flando, whose best result was runner-up in the LPL league.
Before the start of the summer season, a week of training time is enough for LPL to select a ten-man roster.
However, something unexpected happened the day after the official announcement.
LCK has submitted the official roster.
They are the first team to confirm their starting roster.
This efficiency must be attributed to the mature and complete e-sports system developed by the LCK team.
Of course, there is another factor.
That's foreign aid.
LCK has no foreign aid and does not need foreign aid.
Even if they only use local players, they can still win five consecutive championships in the world championships.
Even if local players want a pay raise, they will be fired by the chaebols behind the club, and then new players will be selected from the youth training team.
After one or two years of development, it still has the strength to be among the top three in the world.
This is the foundation.
Foreign aid is not allowed in the Olympic selection.
Can only be naturalized.
Naturalization means that the player obtains the nationality of that country.
As a result, the club management in the North American LCS region was so busy that they had no time to study the summer games.
Many of their star players are not from North America, so if they want to be included in the roster, they must quickly naturalize.
It is impossible to ask players to change their nationality without paying them.
The LCK roster is also very simple.
Top lane: Smeb, Duke.
Jungler: Peanut, Bengi.
Mid laner: Faker, Kuro.
Bottom lane: Pray, Ruler.
Support: Gorilla, CoreJJ.
SKT's top, mid and jungle, Samsung's bottom lane.
The entire ROX team, which ranked first in the regular season, was selected!
The defeat at MSI had a great impact on Bang and Wolf.
Under the influence of domestic public opinion, the two of them did not make the ten-man Olympic roster.
When seeing the LCK roster, Yuan Shen was a little surprised.
This list includes old rivals as well as new rivals.
These ten people are all players who shined in the S6 World Championship in history.
There is nothing much to say about Faker's selection. Just like Yuan Shen to LPL, Faker himself is also a representative banner figure of the LCK region.
Top laner Smeb has truly reached his peak this season and his brilliance is evident.
With MaRin leaving and Summday becoming less popular, there is no top laner in the entire LCK who can compete with him.
Even Duke and the rising SSG top laner Cuvee are slightly inferior to Smeb in terms of laning ability and stability.
Although he was badly beaten by Yuan Shen in the S5 World Championship, looking at all of Yuan Shen's opponents, Smeb's performance can be regarded as the tallest among the short ones.
Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Smeb has become much stronger compared to last year.
S6 was the peak of Smeb’s personal strength.
And his peak is inseparable from the presence of a jungler.
Genius jungler, Peanut.
Peanut, known for his ferocious carnivorous nature and strong offensiveness, is a strong contender for the title of jungle king in the LCK region this year.
His hero pool and playing style perfectly fit the mainstream of the current version.
Many veteran herbivorous junglers have suffered losses at his hands.
Looking at them separately, these two top and jungle players are both top-notch in LCK.
When combined, it becomes even stronger.
In the LCK Spring Split, ROX's top and jungle were once called the strongest top and jungle combination in LCK history by LCK fans.
During the regular season, ROX ranked first with a perfect record.
Unfortunately, in the spring finals, ROX lost to SKT 2-3.
This score does not match the 1:3 that Yuan Shen remembers.
ROX's strength is even stronger than he thought.
There were two reasons why ROX lost the last game. In addition to SKT replacing the water dispenser to defeat Bengi, Bang and Wolf in the bottom lane also broke through the laning of the two Xuanming masters.
Otherwise, with ROX's advantages in top, mid and jungle in the early game, it is still unclear who will win.
"The top, mid and jungle are absolutely top notch. As for the bottom lane..."
Yuan Shen shook his head.
The LCK configuration is flawed.
In his opinion, the strongest bottom lane duo in LCK is still Bang and Wolf.
During the spring season, the Wolf Stick combination defeated all opponents. It was unwise to completely give up on them just because of the loss in MSI and not even give them a chance to be substitutes.
But he can understand it.
Fans must be very disappointed with Bang.
After boasting for half a year, their true colors were revealed at MSI, where they couldn't even beat North America in the group stage.
It's just embarrassing.
"We only have four days left for training."
Jack shrugged.
They haven't even started the training camp yet, but their roster has already come out and they have started the training. How can the LPL top management not be anxious?
"Wait for me~Let's go together!"
Xiao Ming yelled in the bathroom, fearing that Yuan Shen and Jack would abandon him.
……
Soon, the three people arrived at the training location after packing up.
As soon as he entered, Yuan Shen saw rows and rows of computers, all of which were top-of-the-line models on the market.
The game League of Legends does not require any configuration.
A computer that starts at 30,000 yuan is indeed a bit of a luxury.
"Do you take it so seriously?"
Jack grumbled.
Before Yuan Shen could reply, Ming Kai came over.
"Of course. The General Administration has approved it this time. The entire LPL is in an uproar. Everyone is working hard to achieve good results." "Flando, you, Xiao Tianye, and EDG also have three people selected."
Yuan Shen looked around and found quite a few familiar faces.
Except for the two Korean players in the midfield and top of IG, the other three players were all selected.
The same goes for EDG.
Although EDG did not perform well in the World Championship, they have won the MSI championship, three league championships, one runner-up and one semi-final, so it is no problem to say that they are the second best team in the LPL.
RNG, also three people.
When he saw Uzi again, Yuan Shen no longer felt anything.
Instead, Uzi's cheeks turned red, he bent down and greeted him.
"Wei Zhen, you are too fat!"
Looking at Wei Shen who had gained weight again, Yuan Shen couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey, how can you play the mid laner without being fat? This time you choose me, our mid and jungle are invincible, and I will definitely not kill your jungle, how about it?"
As the default captain of the team, Yuan Shen has certain decision-making power in selecting players.
After all, for a team, no matter how strong it is, cooperation and tacit understanding are also very important.
"No problem. I'm not familiar with the other mid laners, and we even played in the All-Star Game. But there's one thing. If you get beaten by your opponent later, I won't take you with me."
Yuan Shen spread his hands. Based on his feelings alone, he definitely wanted to take Wei Shen with him.
After all, they have experience in cooperating with All-Stars.
"Then don't worry, I'm good at Solo."
Wei Shen's words confused Yuan Shen.
Not bro...
Who came up with this method?
Solo selection? ?
Isn't this Shabi?
Yuan Shen is a professional player and has received special training. Normally he doesn't want to complain unless he really can't help it.
"Hey, why are you reacting so calmly?"
Xiang Guo, who was standing nearby, came over with a look of annoyance on his face.
He made a bet with Wei Shen and thought that Yuan Shen would definitely complain about this after knowing it.
I didn't expect Yuan Shen's performance to be so dull.
"Ahem, I understand."
Yuan Shen took a deep breath and smiled.
Although Solo selection sounds ridiculous.
Because judging a contestant's ability not only depends on personal strength, but also takes into account other factors.
But the most important factor is undoubtedly personal strength. If you are beaten online, no tactics or routines will work.
and……
"It seems that there is no other choice, although the jungle and support positions sound ridiculous compared to Solo." Yuan Shen said.
Can you expect teamwork and tacit understanding from a team that was put together in a hurry?
What is the difference between that and usual Rank?
It would be better to select ten players with strong individual abilities. At least the team's upper limit will be very high, and they can become a strong team after a little running-in.
Ultimately, the best strategy should be for an entire team with long-term cooperation and high tacit understanding to fight.
But unfortunately, there is still no strong all-Chinese team in the LPL today.
Many teams are built around Korean players.
OMG, the only all-Chinese team, is now aiming for the LSPL and winning the championship.
However, the hastily assembled national team is not as strong as the club team, and this is very common in competitive sports.
Especially in football, this phenomenon is very normal.
If a football club is not good at any position, they can buy one. If the defensive midfielder is not good, they can buy one. If the attacking midfielder is not good, they can buy one.
The national team is not enough. The nationality must be correct, not to mention the factor of tacit understanding and tactical depth that comes from long-term coordination.
No national team can compete with the top club teams. It doesn't exist.
As for why LCK doesn't have an entire club team?
All we can say is that it is about the distribution of interests.
The selection of all ROX members can be considered a concession made by the LCK officials.
After all, public opinion is to disparage wolves and respect tigers.
The failure of MSI had a huge impact.
Moreover, the LCK region's ability to generate revenue is indeed very strong.
They have no shortage of top players.
Samsung fired all ten players of Samsung Blue and White. After a year of settling down, they now have a team that is among the top three in the world.
Therefore, Solo selection is indeed the best selection method.
Although, it’s a bit of a joke…
However, the truth is simple. If you want to win online, forget about tactics and tacit understanding.
Soon, Chinese coaches including Abu and Feng Ge came in, holding small notebooks and began to announce the selection rules.
"Single-line players will play Solo, best of five."
"Double lane players will pair up with each other and play Solo, also in a best-of-five BO5 format."
"The jungler will be decided after the first two players are decided, based on the results of the training match."
As a jungler, Yuan Shen was also happy to be free. He sat with the factory manager Xiang Guo, waiting to watch the live solo match.
Soon, the results of the Solo in several positions came out.
In the top lane position, Flandre is far ahead.
In the mid lane position, Wei Shen suppressed Xiye and Xiaohu, and maintained his position as a veteran domestic mid laner.
As for the bottom lane duo, the combination of Jack and Xiao Ming surpassed Uzi and Meiko to become the first.
However, this is also because they have been partners for a long time and have good cooperation.
"Can we start the grouping?"
Yuan Shen stood up and prepared to participate in the jungler selection.
But at this moment, Flandre suddenly stood up.
"Aren't you going to play top lane? To be honest, even though you've switched to jungle, I still think top lane is the best position for you. If you beat me, I'm willing to be your substitute."
As soon as Flandre's words came out, everyone in the audience was stunned.
Mingkai and Xiangguo looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
If Yuan Shen changes his lane and goes to the top lane, then who else can play the jungle position besides the two of them?
There is no choice at all!!
Anyone who has watched the first game of the semi-finals between IG and SKT will not doubt Yuan Shen's current strength as a top laner.
Moreover, domestic top laners have always been a shortcoming.
Yuan Shen originally had the opportunity to become the pride of the domestic top laner, but he chose to bring his talents to the jungle position.
This is to better utilize his command ability and is also a compromise with the version update.
Of course, not everyone thinks this way.
Tong Yang's face looked very bad.
But he lost to Flandre, so there was nothing to say.
Who doesn’t want to bring glory to the country?
Originally, he had a chance to enter the Olympics as the second-placed top laner, but now there is an additional Yuan Shen, how can he play? ?
Flando didn't think so much.
The strong rise and the mediocre fall; this is inevitable.
If you want to win glory for your country, you must have the ability to do so.
"If everyone agrees... then come?"
Yuan Shen raised his eyebrows.
To be honest, he has no obsession with playing top lane or jungle.
He just wants to win.
Dozens of contestants present expressed their agreement.
Except Tong Yang.
Even Uzi thinks this option would be better.
Yuan Shen used to be his teammate, but he didn't cherish him well.
Now that he has the chance to be together again, he couldn't ask for more.
Unfortunately, Yuan Shen didn't even give him a good look, and even treated him as a passerby.
Yes, with Yuan Shen's current status as an LPL Grand Slam player, he no longer needs to put on a show.
Even Yuan Shen is a shareholder of IG, and he just signed a lot of contracts, and RNG has a lot of inextricable connections with the workers...
"Come on, let me see how strong you are now."
Flando is a bit childish, but her strength is indeed the best among current domestic top laners.
"He has been fighting wild monsters for half a year, Xuanjun, this is your chance to kill him alone!!"
Masto shouted loudly.
"Yes, Xuanjun, I've been playing top lane for half a year and have survived through blood and gore. Be alert and don't lose face!"
"Damn Yuan Shen, you went to play jungle after winning the championship. You didn't even have a chance to kill him alone. If you kill him alone, you will be the number one, Xuanjun!"
Listening to what Xi Yang, Tong Yang and others said, Flando took a deep breath.
"Opportunity! Yes, this is my only chance!"
He originally wanted to find the strongest Chinese player in the top lane position, and also wanted to see how big the gap was between himself and Yuan Shen now.
But after hearing what everyone said, I suddenly realized.
Revenge, today!
Flando, you can't let your hips down! !
Li Xuanjun kept hinting to himself, gradually mustering up the courage and revealing an evil and crazy smile.
However, when she saw IG-Yuanshen's ID entering the custom room, Flandre suddenly wilted.
All he could think about was the matchup between himself and Yuan Shen in the S5 Summer Season.
Damn it, this guy has gone to play in the jungle, why is he still so oppressive?
If it was a 5V5 head-on fight with real swords and guns, he would not be afraid of Yuan Shen.
In the summer season tomorrow, they will face off against each other. They will bring four teammates each. Let’s see who will return victorious and who will be completely wiped out!
But now, he just wanted to run...
"Not really? Are you shrinking your eggs already?"
"You don't play top lane, so you don't understand how terrifying this ID is..." Flando said in a hoarse voice.
"Bullshit, your father can kill the coward in seconds every time. He has killed me more times than he has killed you. Do you think I understand? How about this, I will teach you a trick."
Masto grabbed the mouse, opened the setting key in the upper right corner, and directly cancelled the column that displayed the summoner's name.
"This way, you won't see the ID when you enter the game later. Just treat the opponent as Zizi and fight casually."
Turn off the ID to deceive yourself?
Ah Q spirit?
Flando wanted to complain.
But you know what, this really does make sense.
Seeing Flando regain her spirits, the people watching the show around her cheered.
"Well done!"
"Be more alert!"
"Don't lose face!"
"Hold on, Flando. The top laner was killed by the jungler. You are a sinner and will be infamous forever!"
……
The rules of Solo are very simple.
A blood.
The limited range is the mainstream top laner on the field.
The first reaction of many players is Jayce, who has no natural enemy in the laning phase.
But anyone who is slightly familiar with this hero knows that Jayce is not strong as a solo player.
Being strong in laning phase and being strong in Solo phase are two different concepts.
In 5V5, facing Jayce's suppression, many times the opponent does not dare to fight hard not because they cannot beat him, but because they are worried about the jungler and whether the next wave of soldiers will be unfavorable to them. In addition, Jayce's E skill in melee form can only save his life, so the conditions for killing Jayce alone are very harsh.
When Jayce reduces your health to a disadvantage, you will lose the initiative even more.
After thinking about it, Flandre decided on a hero.
"Preaching is useless; broken bones are the best textbooks."
Leviathan Priest, Illaoi.
This hero became popular for a while after Yuan Shen brought him out at the All-Star Game, and was considered by many to be a disgusting line-buying hero.
Especially when facing bulky tank heroes, there is absolutely no pressure at all, and there is no need to worry about the jungler catching you.
As long as the E skill is used accurately enough, this hero will be invincible in the lane.
Solo started, and when the bar reading interface came on, Flandre's mouth twitched.
Okay...
Riven, the Exiled Blade.
Yuan Shen's Riven's original proficiency was only S, and it has reached the upper limit.
In terms of proficiency in this hero, he cannot compare to TheShy.
But let him have a son.
I have been playing Solo against TheShy for more than half a year. Although I don't have any inherited characteristics, my hero proficiency has broken through the shackles.
The inheritance of hero proficiency has only the SS level left in his case.
But it's enough.
The hero Riven is only of average strength in a Solo game.
The selection of this hero can only be described as pure confidence, and this is indeed Yuan Shen's signature hero.
When she thought of Yuan Shen, Flando felt a little weak again.
However, after both sides reached the limit, the blank ID above Riven's head made him want to say "I feel good" instantly.
As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind. This kind of psychological suggestion to deceive yourself can really relieve stress.
"The opposite is a gesture, the opposite is a gesture."
Flando kept telling herself that the opponent's level was very average.
I've encountered so many Rivens in ranked matches and beat them all, so why are you afraid of Zzitai?
He is also very familiar with the hero Riven!!
He didn't want to demonize Yuan Shen. He was just a human being and wouldn't be exaggeratedly strong.
Both sides have summoner skills of flash and ignite, Ornn has Doran's Shield, and Riven has Doran's Sword.
Before level 3, Illaoi must be a little timid.
His Q skill Tentacle Whip is too heavy and it is impossible to hit a hero as agile as Riven.
Flandre played very cautiously, preferring to miss a few soldiers instead of replenishing them, and never giving Riven a chance to exchange blood pressure and control before level 3.
Yuan Shen was not in a hurry either. He continued to make last hits steadily and more or less guessed what Flandre was thinking.
He was the one who brought the hero Illaoi into the game, so he was naturally very familiar with him.
It's really disgusting when Illaoi hits the opponent with her E skill, but...
Wouldn't it be better if you didn't get hit?
The hero mechanism is a mechanism, and it is definitely not unsolvable.
It was not until Ornn reached level three that Flandre finally started to go forward to finish off the enemy. He never took the initiative to attack, and kept all his skills in his hands, only attacking when Riven took the initiative to exchange blood, so as to ensure the highest hit rate.
And just as he expected, Riven took action.
He started with EQ through the minion, and then seamlessly connected with AW, but the two Qs after that were stuck in his hand and he just kept firing basic attacks in the same place.
Yuan Shen waited until Ornn made the initial move before releasing the last two stages of his Q.
Yuan Shen and TheShy discussed a lot about Riven, and both of them had deep feelings about it.
Of course, what TheShy let Yuan Shen see was Riven's higher ceiling.
What Yuan Shen brings to TheShy is more technical aspects.
Spiral QA is one of them.
The principle is very simple. Use the small displacement of the Q skill to move around and deal damage at the same time.
The simplest and most basic spiral QA is that when performing the QA combo, the mouse keeps clicking on the ground behind the opponent's hero, which will create the effect of repeated sideways jumping.
If you dodge many of the opponent's non-targeted skills, it will be easy for heroes like Lee Sin and Zed to show off.
Once you become proficient in the spiral QA, you can then pursue the next step of achieving the light-speed spiral QA, as well as releasing the QA level based on the opponent's starting action.
This technique is also very practical.
Especially when playing against Noxus and Fiora.
Noxus's E skill, Fiora's W skill.
The former can interrupt Riven's Q3, and the latter can rebound the control.
However, if you use spiral QA, the opponent will not be able to find any opportunities at all and the error rate is extremely high.
Therefore, those who keep talking about light-speed QA, sanctify light-speed QA, and think that they are not Riven masters if they can't do light-speed QA, are actually just Riven newbies.
Compared to Noxus and Fiora, Illaoi is obviously more bulky.
Looking at Riven jumping back and forth beside her, Flandre was sweating profusely.
Both his Q and E skills were in vain, and Riven chased him and hit him hard, reducing his health to half.
When the situation was just one soldier away from death, Yuan Shen decisively attacked.
The moment AQ kills the soldier and upgrades, W suddenly flashes to connect seamlessly, ignite and hang up, AQAQ.
Instead of pursuing the speed-of-light QA, it is still a spiral QA with displacement and attack. The third part of the Broken Wing Dance predicts the flash position of Ornn and shakes him up high.
The last knife fell, cutting off one blood.
Lost.
Looking at the gray screen, Flandre sighed.
I’m old and can’t even beat the posture.
How magical is IG?
PDD, Yuan Shen, TheShy...
Now even the posture is so fierce.
It is said that Redmi is good at training top laners, so IG is not bad either?
The core figure of a team, the cornerstone of the team, can influence the team's style and playing system.
Even if he retires, the playing system cannot be changed easily.
As long as the right person takes the lead, the original situation can be replicated quickly.
At this time, the seniors become the soul of the team.
This is the case with PDD to IG, Smile to WE, and Zz1tai to EDG.
However, when Yuan Shen on the opposite side stood up, Flando reacted.
Oh, it’s not Zhiti, it’s Yuan Shen.
That doesn't matter.
It’s not shameful if you can’t win.
In front of Brother Yuan, he will always be an apprentice.
Not to mention him, even if it was someone else, who could beat Yuan Shen?
