Chapter 202 No underdogs after the season!
The tight schedule of the LPL is very unfriendly to the teams ranked lower in the playoffs.

They didn't have much time to prepare. The playoffs kicked off on April [-], just four days after the LPL final match.

The schedule will be conducted in the form of ABAB, that is to say, the 12th will be the duel of Group A, the 13th will be the duel of Group B, the 14th will be the duel of Group A, and so on.

The semi-finals will be held on April 15, the week after the knockout round on the 4th.

For Li Luo, he was much busier than others during this period.

The selection that belongs to the Asian Games kicked off.

Although this Asian Games is an exhibition game, but no matter how you say it is wearing the national flag and going out for the country.

In addition, it is a selection, but the domestic selection is different from the layer-by-layer selection in Korea.

The first thing to consider is whether the players have any negative news personally. This is a hard standard.

In addition to the results of the past two years and the performance in the domestic arena.

The candidate for the coach has been finalized, and it is Abramovich.

Although EDG's performance last year was not as good as that of RNG, considering many aspects, Abramovich is still the best candidate for the national team coach.

What Li Luo had to do was to go to the capital to attend a related meeting, and then shoot some posters and even promotional videos about the Asian Games.

It's complicated and Li Luo doesn't know much about it, but it's inevitable to make this trip.

During this period, EDG will be in a situation without a coach and without an ADC. Fortunately, the time will not be too long, at most it will only be about a week. EDG will temporarily call a rookie Hope to cooperate with the team in training tasks, but it will be passable.

It's just that the training effect will inevitably be discounted.

And because the players participating in the selection are scattered among different teams, it is inevitable that there will be schedule conflicts, so not everyone on the list has to make this trip, but Li Luo, as the champion of last year's world finals, is also the FMVP , and at the same time the commander of the team, the captain of the Asian Games League of Legends team can't escape.

Li Luo has no complaints about this. Playing for the country and fighting for honor is an honor that ordinary people can hardly touch.

Moreover, EDG is not completely unprepared for this playoffs. Even on the road, he and Abramovich can use the situation in the first few rounds of the playoffs to judge what the current version of EDG can use and make adjustments.

The playoffs kicked off soon.

RNG is the No.3 in Group B. They need to surpass three opponents in a row to enter the final.

Although RNG performed quite well in the second half of the regular season of the LPL Spring Split, they are not widely favored in this playoffs.

If you want to win the championship, you have to wear four.

It is difficult to think about it.

And the team that RNG faced in the first game of the playoffs was WE.

WE's strength has always been relatively stable, tending to be in the middle and upper reaches of LPL.

What's more, when RNG faced WE last year, it was difficult to win with a score of 3 to 2. It is hard to say who will win and who will lose when the personnel of both sides have not changed much.

However, the first game of this playoffs surprised countless people.

In the BO5 game, RNG easily defeated WE with a score of 3-0.

Xiye, who performed well, seemed to have transformed into Xiaohu's power bank, and the brother-in-law who was on the way... was even more explosive.

Abu and Li Luo watched the game in the restaurant of the hotel.

At the end of the game, Abramovich looked at Li Luo after pondering for a moment, and said, "There is a lot of information exposed by RNG in this game."

"Well, although this is only the first BO5 in the playoffs for them, RNG's tactical intentions are completely different from those in the regular season, and it even gives people a feeling of showing their cards."

Li Luo said thoughtfully.

He can't remember how RNG performed in the playoffs before rebirth.

However, judging from the performance of the RNG team today, there are still traces of RNG's ability to win the championship.

When watching RNG games before, Li Luo was a passerby.

Now it is from the perspective of a professional player, looking at the game as an opponent.

It feels naturally different.

The audience often cannot do without three words when looking at a version.

"Impression flow."

What kind of style is a team and what kind of method did it win the championship on the Internet, and then it was spread on the Internet to ten, ten to a hundred, and then the editor posted an article from the media with a rhythm, and the team immediately became famous. will be labeled with this style.

For example, in the S7 season that just ended not long ago, many players don’t understand that the incense burner has only become popular since the World Championship version. They only heard that S7 is the incense burner version, which is the last swan song of adc, so they subconsciously think that the entire S7 is Censer version.

The same is true for RNG.

When mentioning S8's RNG before rebirth, the audience would subconsciously think of the words "Flag of Command".

But judging from the first game of this playoffs, RNG did not rely on the flag of command, but was very close to the current version.

The attitude of letme in the top lane and the new addition seems to be formulated according to the model of the IG team in the S7 season.

letme only plays blue-collar and only plays meat.

The posture is biased towards some heroes of the half-meat and half-output genre, or fatan-type heroes like "Crow" that are suitable for the current version.

Xiaohu has become more and more brave with the buff of Tiger Emperor of Spring.

Although Xiangguo is occasionally unstable, his style of play is destined to tear holes in the early stage to help RNG's line, and the way of daring to fight and fight hard in the later stage is unmatched in the entire LPL, even if the style of play is the same King Ning, who tends to be fierce and reckless, can't do what Xiangguo does. He would rather not eat anything but help his teammates.

As for the next road...

After thinking for a moment, Li Luo said: "The key point of this BO5 is still the bottom lane. If RNG and IG meet later, it's hard to say who will win, but the main reason for winning or losing must be the bottom lane."

"In these three games, both RNG and WE chose to kill Kai'Sa."

Li Luo said slowly: "Ka'Sa is the most powerful hero in the version, and there will be a lot of uncertainty when it is released, so it makes sense to press this unstable factor. Compared with Kai'Sa, this version has one A better choice would be Verus."

"WE obviously realized this, so they also won a game against Verus, but RNG used the relatively weak Xia to play against Verus, which should have caught WE by surprise. .”

"As for RNG choosing the hero Verus, my brother-in-law couldn't handle it. That's why WE lost the game."

Abu nodded: "So if we have a chance to meet RNG, will it be difficult to deal with?"

"There will be a bit on bp."

Li Luo didn't deny it, he nodded and continued: "The hero Verus' laning strength is relatively high. After the Q skill change in the last version, this version has returned to the normal ad build style. Mu's life-saving ability is also exaggerated...and this version is very suitable for uzi. He can master heroes such as Ezreal, Kai'Sa, Varus, Policewoman, Xayah, etc., and has very strong laning ability .”

Seeing Abu's gradually serious gaze, Li Luo paused slightly: "But it's okay, I'm stronger."

As soon as these words came out, Abu looked at Li Luo in astonishment.

In his impression, Li Luo is not a wild talker...

Li Luo seemed to see what Abu was thinking, smiled and said, "Privately, just say it, if this is in the promotional film, it should be low-key or low-key."

"You kid..."

Abu shook his head dumbfounded.

In his eyes, even Ming Kai can be regarded as a child.

Not to mention the younger Li Luo.

But should I say it or not, Li Luo's words made Abu feel a little relieved.

In the spring and summer of last year, EDG missed the championship.

Counting the time, it has been about a year and a half since I won the LPL championship.

Many people on the Internet feel that EDG has fallen.

They... time to need a champion to prove themselves.

……

The playoffs of the LPL Spring Split are proceeding in an orderly manner.

When the game on the 15th ended, RNG had already surpassed two teams in a row.

In the same group as EDG, the RW team also showed off their heroic demeanor. After BLG crossed JD.com and joined them, they successfully defeated BLG with a score of 3 to 1 and advanced to the next round, becoming EDG's first matchup in the playoffs The opponent you will face.

The two teams have played against each other once in the German Cup.

The RW team at that time was easily won by EDG 2-0.

However, in this season's spring regular season, the growth rate of the RW team is obvious to all the audience.

It's just that the suspense in the eyes of the audience in this game is not very great.

Even if RW is strong, they must also consider the factor of "team style restraint" when facing EDG.

Doinb tends to perform better when facing teams whose mid laners are not very capable of laning.

For example, when they faced RNG in the regular season, once the four packs and two tactics were started, the old thief Sima would take off directly, and the opponent's bottom lane would be very uncomfortable.

But when RW faced IG, he was beaten very miserably. Doinb couldn't move at all in the middle, and he couldn't move.

The same is true for EDG.

Although Li Luo's style of play in the spring split attracted enough attention.

But the audience clearly knew that the strength of the elementary school boy was steadily improving.

In the past, the primary school players had strong laning ability, but the problem was that they were prone to fall ill in the middle and late stages.

But now that EDG has Li Luo's command, the younger brother, as a member of the team, has significantly reduced his illnesses after being influenced by the team.

This is the chemical reaction between the players.

In fact it is.

The semi-final between EDG and RW did not last long.

Even though RW tried his best, he couldn't take even a small point from EDG.

Doinb used a Ryze and a Kalma in three games, and took out Lulu in the third set.

From the changes of these three heroes, it is not difficult to see the choices and changes of doinb during the game.

Facts have proved that no matter how he changes, it is useless.

In terms of hard power, there is a big gap between RW and EDG. Even if the old thief is in a very good state in the spring game, he cannot avoid being suppressed by the combination of Li Luo and Meiko.

EDG became the first team to enter the finals in the playoffs.

What the audience really cares about is the contest between RNG and IG.

If it is placed at the beginning of the playoffs, most viewers may think that it is difficult for RNG to win when facing IG.

But with the BO5 in the first two games of the playoffs, the hearts of many viewers were shaken.

IG...will it really not be shaken by RNG?
……

game day.

Inside the base of the EDG team.

The contestants got together as usual, and the combination of fried chicken and Coke made the atmosphere of watching the game much more intense.

As the match between the two teams began, the smell of gunpowder between the two sides became more intense.

"Ka'Sa has been released, so if this is the case, it should be taking Verus and Kai'Sa at the same time."

Meiko said thoughtfully.

"Kai'Sa's range is 50 short, and this laning feels very difficult to play."

Xiaotian gives his point of view.

"Not necessarily, it depends on the ID."

Meiko glanced at Li Luo and said with a smile.

As the game progressed, the expressions of the EDG players in the training room gradually calmed down.

Occasionally, the players will be judged and applauded because of the decisions and operations of the players on the field, but the atmosphere is obviously not as cheerful as it was before the game.

"These two teams... are great, did they play like this in the first match?"

Ming Kai was a little surprised.

The head ratio is 17 to 17.

In the end, IG narrowly won.

But the bloody level is directly full.

Rao is a player of Ming Kai's style, and his blood boils because of the games and operations of the two sides.

This is only the first game, so passionate, how about the next game?
The facts were just as Ming Kai expected.

IG won the first game.

In the second game, RNG immediately fought back and evened the game with a big score.

After that, RNG won the third game again and gained the match point.

When this game is over, there is no small gain for the EDG team.

Especially Abramovich, who is a coach, is making records in a small notebook.

Because the second and third RNG showed their first big move in this playoffs.

Upper middle vampire swing.

The first-hand vampire practiced by letme can only be said to be ok in the second game. IG released the third game when it felt that it could handle it.

As a result, RNG swung the vampire to the middle.

This swing made IG catch the road.

In the fourth game, they had to adjust their tactics and chose to press down Uzi's Kai'Sa, who played quite steadily in every game.

As a result, Uzi chose Verus, and the bottom lane still exploded.

If it weren't for Rookie's fourth blood C, IG would be gone again.

Xiangguo's way of not brushing wild and crazy gank military training The shy made IG's top road a bit overwhelming.

In desperation, IG had no choice but to switch to Duke to try to adjust.

But RNG has amplified its moves again in the life and death game.

They let the posture use Alchemist, a hero who is rarely seen in eight lifetimes, to fight against Duke's Ornn.

And this kind of confrontation really had a miraculous effect.

Amidst the shouts of commentary and the cheers of RNG fans on the scene, RNG became the team that had the laugh in the final.

The "see you in the final" that King Ning said in the last competition disappeared like a cloud of smoke in the past.

This is the variability of e-sports, but also the cruelty of e-sports.

It is the same as the script before Li Luo's rebirth.

The LPL's spring split is another popular dog-dog battle.

It's just that this time... the final result is hard to say.

ps: The code word is still a bit slow, I was late for a while, before the next update at zero o'clock~ it is already improving, brother Meng, don't worry too much, the liver will return within four days~
