I, who love to post on Weibo, have become a professional Tongtian generation
Chapter 212 Departure, MSI
Chapter 212 Departure, MSI
After winning the championship, there was no rest, and what followed was special training for the 7.8 version stipulated by MSI.
When the LPL was still in the semi-finals.
The US server is already warming up to version 7.8.
In this version, Riot has not adjusted the hero values much, but is more fixing... BUGs, such as some map elements in the Howling Abyss.
If there is anything interesting to talk about in version 7.8, it might be that it released a promotional video of the new heroes Xia and Luo. In terms of action display, Luo ran all the way, charming many enemies, and rushed to Xia's side, talking and interacting during the process. Lines.
As the designer previously revealed on Twitter, the new heroes will be a bottom lane couple with a unique interaction mechanism.
Other than that, we can’t tell much from the promotional video. We can only roughly guess that Luo has a group control function called Acceleration Charm. Xayah can fly in the air, cannot be locked on, and can attack enemies with feathers.
The night after winning the championship.
Heart communicated with the coaching staff of RNG and WE in advance.
Just like that, a training team consisting of top laner 957, jungler Condi, mid laner Xiye, and bottom laner Uzi and Ming appeared in the battle room.
For Uzi, he really needs Ming to keep up with his thinking and requires high-intensity confrontation to work out the details.
For Condi, he lost the Spring Showdown and was ridiculed that the pirated version of Wild King could not beat the genuine version, and he was holding his breath in his heart.Just like what he said in trash talk, they worked harder this season than last year, and they can see the progress of the team, so they naturally have expectations of winning a championship.
Not only is he worthy of the boring training, but he has been out for so long and still has no real honor to prove himself, which is always a bit disappointing.
After all, as a jungler, who would think other junglers are strong?
This position depends more on ideas and coordination.It's not a solo matchup, but a clear gap can be seen in matchups of similar intensity.
Moreover.
It feels really uncomfortable to be ridiculed.
Now when Condi opens the counter, he can always see people making fun of him, some are very malicious, and some are just making fun of him.He knew that the audience's rank was certainly not as high as his own, but the problem was that they really set the goal of winning the championship.
They reached the top of Group B, and they sent RNG out [-]-[-]. They wanted to win everything.
Similarly, 60E expected to see the drama of the Red Miracle and use a spring championship to clear away the haze of the past three years. In the end, they only saw the home team being swept by LGD three to zero.After the game, I was ridiculed by RNG fans, sorry.
Even because of the order of first out, last out, 957 was devalued as worthless.
One game over.
Cvmax looked a little angry and shouted at Big Wolf in front of everyone: "You don't have to kill the opponent alone, but you have to win the line?! Do you understand to win the line?"
"Axiba, just getting a spring crown will make you complacent. Among this group of people, you are the least qualified."
The big wolf was stunned.
He didn't know why 957 was so excited.Just now, his Kennen was knocked home three times by 957 Jess in the lane, basically declaring that the lane was bad.
He didn't know why Brother Mai changed his attitude so quickly. He was obviously in a good mood at the dinner party last night, but today he came to humiliate him again.
With the words "least qualified", Big Wolf immediately turned red.It turns out that the performance of holding the Silver Dragon Cup all the way yesterday was noticed by the coach.
only……
Big Wolf felt aggrieved. He felt that he was not complacent and was not satisfied with the present.
Besides, Kennen is not that easy to beat Jace.Unless you move very well and can avoid Jayce's enhanced cannon, this matchup is all about resisting pressure.
Cvmax didn’t think so. He felt that Big Wolf did not regard winning the line as a task that must be completed. In other words, he felt that Big Wolf was just satisfied with the moment and did not listen to his words.
Yes, there is no problem with my training attitude, and I don’t arrive late or leave early.
But working hard doesn't mean you have the right attitude. It can only mean that there is still hope. If you know you are not good enough, you are willing to spend time practicing.
Qin Hao and others were as silent as a cicada, not daring to speak at all.It was like a storm suddenly arose on the calm sea level, and they were too late to save themselves, let alone the big wolf.
He just looked at the big wolf's temperature rising, the exposed veins on his neck, and his red face, and knew how much the big wolf was suffering at the moment.
Qin Hao didn't dare to think about how he would react if his coach criticized him like this.As a bystander, he already felt uncomfortable.
IMP can understand it very well. He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it that day when he was having dinner and drinking.
the other side.
Hongmi is also communicating with the team members.
He deliberately sighed: "Look, they have won so many honors and they haven't stopped..." He meant that after the Spring Finals, they immediately scheduled a training match.
This sentence has achieved very good results here. Condi and Xiye nodded repeatedly, feeling that LGD could do this in pursuit of results. Compared with them, it seemed like they didn't do anything special in the Spring Split.
Thinking about it this way, my dissatisfaction with the coaching staff lessened.
They were still holding their breath after being punished for oversleeping.After all, the control was not so strict last year, and I occasionally miss the more casual days before, where I could play whatever I wanted in training matches.
……
A conflict that might break out was silently handled by the big wolf. C Bo doesn’t know what is the biggest change in the Big Wolf compared to the beginning of the season?
Strength, hero pool or understanding of the game?
Maybe these are all, but he feels that a big change is that the big wolf is becoming less and less red wolf.Although he is still popular, the red wolf who clamored to go solo with the coach is gone.
He stared at the expressionless face of the big wolf for a long time.
The big wolf couldn't stand Qin Hao looking at him like this, and finally said, "What are you doing!"
The tone lacked due respect, but the big wolf was really in a bad mood right now.Just because he endures it doesn't mean he can be like a normal person.To be honest, if drawing a circle helps, he has already cursed Mai ÷ a hundred times.
"I know you're not feeling well." Qin Hao confessed the reason why he came over.
Big Wolf:......
He didn't know what to say. If he could, he hoped it was Brother Mai who said this and apologized to him, saying, "I just got up and my brain was not in a good state, so I spoke a bit harshly."It's just that this only exists in his imagination. Big Wolf has never seen Brother Mai surrender to anyone on the team, including Heart.
The mood of this day was really full of twists and turns. I just woke up and continued the good mood of Spring Crown. The familiar training room also became unfamiliar. When I saw Qin Hao in the solo queue, I felt that this honor was nothing compared to Qin Hao. neither.
He thought that the day would just go by. It couldn't be said to be dull, but it wasn't that lively either. But during a training match, he didn't know whether it was because he was in poor condition or because 957 was too energetic, which led to him being yelled at.
Grass!
Today is not a good day at all!
Looking at the big wolf's constipated face, Qin Hao patted him on the shoulder and said that we can recreate the game between Jace and Kenan more, "My Jace, it should be okay."
The big wolf's expressionless face slowly turned away.He wanted to curse, "At this time, you still have to show off in front of me."Your Jace is more than okay. Have you forgotten about the last time I hit level [-] until I couldn’t eat the thread?
"What's the point of practicing with you?" After saying this, Big Wolf felt a little regretful.He felt that he should not take out his anger on Qin Hao.
Bad bad bad.Not only will I have to experience public humiliation today, but I will also have to temporarily disconnect from Brother Hao.
Unexpectedly, Qin Hao did not have a gloomy face, but smiled and said, "It will help if you practice more. If it doesn't work in one day, then just a week."
In Qin Hao's world, there is no matchup that cannot be solved with a week of hard practice. If it still doesn't work, then two weeks or one month.
None of this will work. The difference between the heroes will be too large, and it will not be possible to do a good job with enough details.For example, there are relatively extreme matchups between Nightmare and Kassadin, and Lucian and Kassadin. For the 10-minute line, Kassadin would never dare to pretend in front of Nightmare and Lucian.
"..."
"I'm afraid of wasting your time."
"Solo is not a waste of time."
This sentence makes so much sense, Big Wolf doesn’t know how to refuse.
"Then... get a room?"
"I'm ready."
"Okay, wait for me, I'll go wash my face."
……
In the office, Cvmax and Sask are reviewing the game between SKT and KT for the third time.
But the more I review the game, the more Cvmax feels that SKT is like that.Although they also swept [-]-[-], KT made more mistakes than WE.
PawN and Mata gave too many opportunities, and SKT won without pressure.
another.
Cvmax discovered at the beginning of the season that KT had a very bad problem, that is, they had too many ideas for team battles. When it came to performance, they were inconsistent and their skills were given very hastily.
For now, KT's top lane is considered the team's strongest point, and their jungle performance is stable.
But when it comes to lane transitions and team battles, the top laner doesn’t like to be in the front, the mid laner has too many ideas, and the jungler is occasionally a half beat too late, making it seem like the AD is always out of touch, playing damage alone, and finding positions is extremely awkward.
If you only watch the finals, you may even feel that Deft is holding back. The top three LPL players in the mid-level and lower auxiliary positions have beaten the LCK elite. It is strange that he chose his position.
But if you watch the entire Spring Split, you will find that this is the normal situation of KT. No one of them protects AD. Nosuke is looking for opportunities to harass the formation. He plays damage on the side or behind the top lane. As an AD, if you want to join the team, you can only It may become something like Deft.
Unless you choose Jhin, your positioning will be strange. After all, in SKT's eyes, Deft is always exposed, and it's there when you rush.
Before the game, Cvmax read the public opinion on the Korean Open. SKT fans generally hope that Huni can withstand it and that Deft will die in a team battle.It can only be said that SKT fans are overthinking this.
Playing KT doesn't need to be so troublesome at all.
During the laning phase, I had the advantage in the middle lane. Lulu was able to kill PawN's Enchantress in lane, and even Peanut was invincible. In the three games, I broke through from the bottom lane first, forced my status and skills, and defeated Deft and Mata frequently. out.
"That's it, I can't tell much."
After taking notes and roughly circling the field of view and route selection of Little Peanut, when the assistant left the office, Cvmax had nothing to do and browsed the Korean website.
Suddenly I saw a post with a lot of views and replies. I clicked on it and found out that it was an SKT fan opening champagne.
Just looking at the content in the post, it seems easy to be convinced.To say that there is a great chance of two consecutive MSIs, it is self-evident which team this two consecutive MSIs refers to.
After all, after last year's MSI, SKT fans felt that they had taken revenge and wiped away the shame of S5's loss to EDG.
Cvmax still remembers that in S5, when SKT's popularity collapsed for the first time, they were said to be embarrassing. Mitsukoshi's actions on the road were repeatedly criticized, which made MaRin depressed.
[Huni can withstand Smeb, the midfielder is in great shape, and Bang is a ruthless output machine. They will definitely help us win the MSI championship. 】
[The spring game has gone through some ups and downs, but the finals will prove who is the king! 】
[Even in S5, the Spring Battle was never so easy. 】
[Faker plus Peanut is the best midfielder, I’ve said it before. 】
[It’s terrible, the powerful KT was swept directly. 】
[I can’t imagine how invincible this SKT team is. 】
Cvmax shook his head repeatedly, but if he went to see the anti-bar, he would also find such a sound.
Just like the LCK audience, it is easy to fall into the mood of comparison. Kangba saw SKT being so fierce in the finals, beating KT so hard that KT was breathless. In the third game, PawN made an operational error and was single-killed by Faker Lulu.
After watching such a game, they can easily feel that this SKT team is very strong, terrifyingly strong.
After all, everyone is still seeing images of the three heroes of the LPL defeating their contemporaries. In their eyes, Deft is too strong. After he left, EDG fell directly to the second tier, and no longer had the calmness of a league hegemon;
PawN is also incredibly strong. The word "PawN dad" is enough to explain Starch's mood towards the mid lane at that time, that is, there is no need to worry about being invisible in the mid lane;
Mata...well, Zyra the Windspeaker wiped out the wind criticism, and the ones who scolded her the most after the game were RNG fans.It’s just that as a veteran with rich competition experience, he will definitely not be weak after returning to the LCK.
During the transfer period, I was bragging about KT Galaxy Battleship, but it turned out that such a strong Galaxy Battleship had no room to resist when faced with SKT.
[To be clear in advance, I am not unusual, but SKT is really strong this year.Even Huni, who is talked about the most, also played in the Rambo Salvation game (the one with 8 output), and he also resisted Smeb in the finals. 】
[Let me describe it to you this way, Score is already playing relatively well, but his performance is still not as good as Peanut. 】
[The mid laner was suppressed. PawN was still the best player in the LPL, but in the finals he became a worm. 】
[You can only find the presence of Deft by looking at the panel output. 】
[It feels a bit like our finals. KT can play in the lane, but can't handle team battles. The operation is not as good as SKT, and the vision is worse than SKT. 】There are humans comparing the performance of WE facing LGD in the LPL Spring Finals.
[Yes, WE also has Condi as a person, and his brother-in-law does a lot of damage. 】
[So Xiye is equal to PawN? 】
【957 equals Smeb? 】
[Laughing to death, 60E is still washing, and it’s all washed up on KT. Can 957 and Xiye be better than PawN and Smeb?Don’t pee and look in the mirror either. 】
[957 What kind of hero pool is compared with Smeb? 】
[Then Smeb is so strong, why didn’t he defeat Huni? Isn’t it said that Smeb is the best in the world?What about the results? 】
[Smeb hasn’t achieved results yet. He has Xia Guan, but what does 957 have?Moreover, that Xia Guan ranked first in the poisonous milk list based on winning lines, and ranked No. 2 in terms of data fault. 】
[Both were league runners-up, and their opponents were S-race champions, and both were defeated three to zero.Why do you think KT is invincible? 】
[Collection, KT is so strong, but it actually won one game in the finals, and it feels so confident even after losing. 】
[Is it possible that distance creates beauty?If KT cannot win the championship in the LPL with this configuration, I can’t even think of resisting Ba’s aggressiveness. 】
[KT spent the most money during the transfer period. No one thinks they like to finish second. 】
The MSI group stage hasn't started yet.
The LPL audience watched the rookies pecking each other in the finals, and they were more willing to discuss such topics.
Focusing on whether SKT is invincible, whether LGD can withstand Huni on the road, swapping teams, Peanut is a hundred times stronger than Eimy, and who has the problem with KT, the galactic battleship, the discussion in the anti-bar is very "passionate".
Anyway, no matter what kind of topic comes to the confrontation, it will eventually turn into personal attacks and blame each other.
Not 2 days.
There are a lot of idiots, lemons, and pigs in the counter bar, as well as idiots who can’t understand the game.
It's July 5th.
After a week of special training at the base, LGD flew to Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Before boarding the plane, Qin Hao updated a Weibo message - [Let's go, MSI. 】
a time.
The comment area was very lively again, with fans sending their blessings one after another.
【Must work hard! 】
【Believe in Qingshen. 】
[Can you share your thoughts on SKT? 】
[Hey, I have been criticized in the counter bar for the past two days. Apart from the middle lane, Ueno cannot stand up to Huni and Peanut. 】
[Ah, this can all be put aside. 】
[Yes, that post said that Faker has been much more stable this season, and the heroes he plays are more team-oriented. Compared to the whole team, we are not as good as SKT. 】
[I just hope that Mai ÷ can be normal and not choose a tightrope lineup. 】
[Brother, you know, I’m also afraid of BP messing around. 】
There was a lot of noise.
The other teams that arrived in Brazil were obviously very capable.
G2's official Twitter seems to be very dissatisfied with the comments from the outside world that they are optimistic about LGD and SKT entering the finals.
The night of the 8th.
G2 artists worked hard, and in the updated four-square cartoon, LGD, SKT and TSM were lifted high and thrown to the ground by the strongman symbolized by G2.
Just the first comment below makes me nervous.
TSM: G2-8?
Twitter viewers who knew the meme were amused.What’s interesting about this joke is that G2016 participated in MSI in 2 and was eliminated 2-8 in the group stage, which was similar to the wild card team’s record.
Such NB's performance naturally became a joke for North American audiences to mock the European division.
Afterwards, G2 said they would wait and see.
Compared with outside predictions.
After arriving in Brazil, LGD couldn't find a capable team to train with, so Qin Hao had a lot of time to play solo with Big Wolf.
His understanding of the top laner is not deep enough.
Sometimes there will be mistakes in calculating the round of troops. Just talking about solo, Big Wolf feels that Qin Hao's strength is outstanding enough.
Maybe he plays the mid lane, and his skills are generally more delicate. Every time Big Wolf fights Qin Hao, he has to concentrate on his positioning.
The hotel's temporarily renovated e-sports room.
The experience of watching C Bo for a while told him that Big Wolf's game was much better than before.If I was training with WE that day and Kenan of the Big Wolves beat Jayce and only went home twice in 10 minutes, I feel that the coach would not be angry.
Swish.
Kennen crosses E and moves in a z-shape. While dodging the cannon, he carefully controls the distance to exchange blood with Jace.In a round like this where Jace spends his time over the grass, it is beneficial to fight back properly. If he is simply beaten, he will easily get rolled.
A round is over.
Qin Hao praised: "Awesome, big wolf."
Qin Hao always said this, but Lang Xing was still very happy. What made him happy was not that he was praised, but that he felt that his condition was pretty good and he was not overpowered by Jace.
"The coach is not here." C Bo curled his lips, unable to see his brother being proud.
"Go ahead and play your ranking. Let's play another round." Taking advantage of the good feeling in his hand, Big Wolf wanted to find out more. At this time, his idea was right.
"Row."
When he enters solo, Qin Hao doesn't like to talk anymore. He likes to finish his speech.
C Bo was bored, so he went to the bathroom and came back to continue solo queue.
The schedule for the first day of the group stage has already been announced.
Each of the 6 teams will play twice a day, and the group matches will be completed in just 5 days.
basically.
The promotion situation can be seen in the first two days, and the next three days will be for the two or three teams in the middle.
Previously, LPL viewers saw the LJL team leading a team to participate for the first time and expected the Japanese team to advance. Who knew that the Japanese team was just making a joke.Novices are playing against each other, and they can still be 3K behind in the lane.
Another solo round ends.
Qin Hao felt that if this game was taken as a test, he could only score 50 points against WE Wolf in the training games, but now he can score around 7 or 80 points.
This is how he rated himself in the simulation space as well.
Calculate an average number.
In a similar matchup situation, roughly where the passing line is, and then feel it game by game, see what kind of exchange ideas will be more comfortable.
Fortunately, Dalang didn't know his rating level with Qin Haona.
He feels that he has made great progress.
Although this matchup has the possibility of a level [-] game, Qin Hao has never given him a chance to fully charge up. The only things that can be improved are relying on lanes and last hits.
But this is already pretty good.
If the hero Jace is selected, if the laning advantage is not enough, Kennen will actually have the advantage on the wing in the mid-to-late stage.The advantage here refers to AD Kennen.
When the two of them were confirming the details, they didn't notice that Cvmax had come in.
Cvmax himself saw it clearly and lamented that having such a player in the team makes the management work much easier.Of course, he didn't like saying this and didn't show it.
As a former professional top laner, he certainly understands that he is a bit harsh on Big Wolf. At normal levels, Jayce who cannot suppress Kenan in the first six levels would be derelict in his duty. But in his heart, as a professional player, he must not lose his aggressiveness.
He doesn't care if his words hurt others, as long as the team members take them seriously, he can be a villain.Thinking of this, Cvmax thought that the current training volume was a bit overwhelming and he should return to normal two days before the opening of the group.
Late at night.
Cvmax looked at the bright lights in the room, and his heart became calmer...
5 month 9 number.
Qin Hao and others squeezed out time to shoot a promotional video with Riot.
... Problems such as too many vehicles and traffic jams have caused a certain degree of trouble in the street scenes of the promotional video.
But Qin Hao didn't expect that after filming the promotional video, he would be surrounded by several people.
"Penicillin, what do you think of St. Paul?"
“Do you feel the enthusiasm of the Brazilian audience for League Esports?”
"Penicillin, what do you think about dunking and saying that LGD is very strong?"
"Since the World Championships, Faker has worked hard on Yanjai. I usually encounter him in ranked. What do you think of his Yanjai level?"
Next to him, the translator hired by Riot just led him back. Qin Hao had no idea what these people with their microphones were trying to do.
For a moment he thought it was someone from the TV station.
It wasn't until he returned to the lounge that Qin Hao knew it might be a few media people.To be honest, before coming here, Qin Hao had never thought that Brazil had such enthusiasm for e-sports.
When we were filming the promotional video just now, some local people also liked to come over and say hello.
It can only be said that Qin Hao underestimated his influence.
So far, when it comes to the league, of course Faker is the most famous.
However, as a mid laner who shone in last year's World Championship, Qin Hao's commanding voice often appears in the highlights released by Riot Games. As a result, among some young people in Brazil, Penicillin's audience popularity is no worse than that of Faker.
After all, as the team's main conductor, he deserves to be looked upon highly no matter where he is.
Compared with Qin Hao's confusion.
Cvmax is being interviewed by hometown media.
The Korean media are of course very curious about him. Who is not curious about the coach who coaches the championship team?
"Hello."
Cvmax seemed a little excited to see the media people from his hometown.What he dreams of is to have a successful career and not be looked down upon by his family.
"I enjoyed your interview very much." Cvmaxi said proactively.He is not just being polite. Just like LPL has self-media such as Hedgehog Esports Club, in South Korea, OGN TV station also has a similar team that tracks the esports industry.
soon.
Chatted with each other for a few words.
The male reporter entered today's main topic: "We all know that you played top laner in Samsung before. What was the reason that made you want to be a coach in LGD?"
Cvmax was very direct: "Brother Guan Jiong (Heart) called me. When I heard that LGD was short of a coach, I couldn't bear to refuse."
He added: "No one should be able to refuse such a call, not to mention that I was... living a relatively bad life at the time. I relied on the support of a few friends to avoid starving to death."
"Second question, this MSI includes G2 from the European division and TSM from the North American division... With so many top teams gathered together, what is your goal for the team?"
"Champion." Cvmax said firmly: "I am paying attention to SKT's games. They have some problems now."
The male reporter was a little surprised, but quickly covered it up.It's just that as an e-sports person, he rarely sees people who are so tactful towards his hometown team.
It’s okay to aim for the championship, everyone will say this. Even if you don’t have confidence, you can’t lose.
But you could at least cover it up and say, "SKT is so strong, there will be a winner and loser," shouldn't you regard yourself as a challenger?
SKT was the champion of last year's MSI, which is full of gold!
The male reporter tried to be as tactful as possible: "Are you referring to SKT in the regular season?" At that time, they were still getting used to it, and the game was generally normal.
"No, I watched the finals. The main reason why SKT was 4-[-] was because KT played too chaotically." Cvmax is not afraid of being scolded. He has always dared to say: "To be honest, this may be the second worst period since the establishment of SKT. , only a little better than S[-]."
Male reporter: ...
Do you know that even they, the e-sports media, don’t like to review S4.
Korea Net doesn’t like Samsung that much.
OGN TV replays classic games every year. During the spring and summer playoffs and World Championships during the S4 period, the average number of viewers has always been low.
There is a saying that goes well, battle reports can lie, but battle lines cannot.
Both are championship teams, and the audience has never ranked Samsung and SKT together.Compared with SKT's discussion, Samsung seems to have no presence.
To be honest, they won't invite Samsung when they hold events. People from SKT are enough.The audience likes it and is happy with it.
After hearing this outrageous statement.
The male reporter tacitly changed the subject and talked about other teams.
Wait until this interview is over.
They know that if the report is released, Cvmax will be criticized by the public.
But what does this have to do with them?
the next morning.
The video of the interview was released and the text version was updated on Twitter.
As expected, the phrases "KT played too chaotically" and "the second worst period" successfully offended most of the Korean audience.
People have said: Who is Cvmax?
[Laughs, a person who has only played as a substitute in OGN is qualified to talk about a great team? 】
[Is this person suffering from delusion?I remember when LGD won the championship, the coach was not him. 】
[It is true that he should go to the hospital to check his brain nerves, but it doesn’t matter. After two days of competition, he will have a correct understanding. 】
[I hope LGD can survive 30 minutes. 】
[Every cat and dog can comment on the game, can he understand it as a substitute? 】
[Am I the only one who thinks he looks like a clown? The LPL will only want people that our region doesn’t want. 】
No matter how.
This interview with Cvmax successfully made Korean audiences recognize him.
Before this, the Korean audience had a vague impression of him. They only knew that LGD had strengthened the coaching staff. After that, I believe they will not be too unfamiliar with Cvmax's ID.
As a coach.
Dare to say controversial things, which is unique in itself.
When the news spread, everyone was shocked.
[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called him Mai÷. 】
[Oh no, I dare to say so. 】
[Even SKT dares to comment, don’t you want to go back? 】
[Indeed, Zhen Ta Ma has personality. 】
After 2 days.
The MSI group stage begins.
In terms of game time, it is not friendly to LPL viewers.
Because China time is 11 hours ahead of Brazil time.
Two in the morning.
Many people were forced to stay up late to watch the game.
As the countdown ended, the venue fell into darkness.
Wait until the light comes back on.
There were cheers from the Brazilian audience.
Then, scenes of winning the Spring Split and winning the trophy appeared on the big screen.After that, the promotional video recorded by Riot appeared on the big screen.
The camera switches between buildings and street scenes. Perkz faces the camera: "No matter what, the results must be better than last year."
TSM assistant Biofrost: "As the representative team of the North American region, we have been eager to match the honor of the major region for a long time."
After each contestant passed by, a burst of cheers erupted from the scene.
On the big screen, Faker's picture appeared. Compared with others, he seemed to be standing at a high place looking at the camera.
Faker: "We have won one MSI championship, but it is not enough."
The picture belonging to SKT ends.
Finally, cheers broke out again, and Qin Hao's face appeared in the camera, like a promise and a memory: "Last year, LPL lost. This year, we have only one goal, and that is the championship."
……
The statements in the promotional video are very strong.
Anyone can feel the smell of gunpowder.
When the atmosphere in the venue was aroused by these contents, the host used his enthusiastic voice to bring the audience back to the game.
"...This is Sao Paulo...Six spring champions from all major regions around the world will compete here to determine the four finalists! Then, they will go to Rio de Janeiro, where they will determine the champion !!”
【Hahahahaha! 】
[Brazilians are so funny. When I heard this tongue flick, I thought I was watching a football match. 】
[It’s okay, I dare to shout. Regardless of whether I understand it or not, at least it’s very enthusiastic. 】
[Indeed, looking at the scene, it seems that everyone is full. 】
The lights focus again.
The Brazilian audience gave a new round of cheers.
Next, the host introduced in turn the representative team from the European region G2, the LMS region representative team FW, the Vietnam region representative team GAM, the veteran strong team TSM in the North American region, the LPL region representative team LGD, and SKT, who played last and needed to return the trophy.
"It's just a trophy, why is it so grand?"
C Bo stood beside Qin Hao and muttered.
"Who are you optimistic about in the first game?" C Bo asked again.
"do not know."
Qin Hao looked at Faker, who was smiling diagonally in front of him, and what was most in his mind was the look of looking back.After the World Championships, this looking back photo appeared so frequently that it was difficult for Qin Hao to forget it.
The audience in front of the screen didn't know that LGD was standing there and secretly chatting. They were frantically posting comments.
[Damn, when I talk about last year, I think of RNG being beaten to pieces by a wet nurse and a wheel mom. 】
[A competition is always so confusing. According to this situation, can I see LGD playing TSM at around four o'clock? 】
[Stop procrastinating. I will be at eight tomorrow morning. Please let me sleep for at least four hours. 】
The official time given is around 4 o'clock, LGD will play TSM.
The opening game is G2 playing SKT.
[Guess how long G2 can last in the hands of SKT?I guess it won't last 30 minutes. 】
[Come on, guess what’s the point of G2? Last year’s group stage was 2-8. This year, I’ll guess 3-7. There must be some improvement. 】
[Haha, 3-7 is too bad. This record still won’t make it to the semi-finals. 】
[Semi-finals G2?I think GAM has a higher probability of entering the semi-finals than G2. 】
[Indeed, G2 only has a strong mouth. 】
[It seems that there is no one left in the European League, and teams like G2 come every year. 】
Chatting on the barrage.
These late-night parties finally managed to survive the various programs arranged by the organizers.
One thing to say, if it weren't for the unfriendly schedule, Brazil's content was quite exciting and it also showed enthusiasm. The key is the night. The LPL audience only wants to watch the game and not the program.
To the applause.
Qin Hao and others left the venue through the passage and returned to the lounge.
soon.
The opening match begins.
The overall configuration of G2 has not changed much from last year, so naturally the competitive level has not changed much from last year.
"Haha, Faker sent the first kill in this MSI."
"Hey, why are G2 so aggressive? Don't be too aggressive."
At the commentary desk, the long-haired ones and those who remember to have fun.
The two teams played for 10 minutes, and the head-to-head ratio was still 1:0.This is normal, the rhythm of this game is like this, as long as the lane is not murderous, it is not that easy for the jungler to do things.
The only way is to dodge first, and then find an opportunity to eat the head after the next wave.
In the early 11s.
The SKT duo used the combination of Poverus' ultimate move and the auxiliary female gun to directly defeat Han Bing.
Immediately on G2's side, Blind Sin crouched down and succeeded, and roundhouse kicked Wolf back who missed the combo, allowing his side to get killed by the ice.
If the Peanut Man Gun hadn't been nearby, I'm afraid Bang would have died too.
After this.
G2 played a double team again, catching Bang and Wolf in the bottom lane, allowing Perkz to get a double kill.
see this scene.
The audience began to cheer for G2.
Who would have thought that G2, which was only 8-2 last year, would start 4-0 against the unanimously optimistic SKT team.
It's so dreamy.
Obviously, G2 also felt dreamy, so they drifted away.
After reaching an economic lead of 2600 yuan, it was time to think of ideas.
If the duo must move up, swap your next tower with the opposite tower for the previous one.So far, it's normal, but when the two-man lane is mobilized, G2's midfielder doesn't care about the bottom lane defense at all. Instead, Perkz went to the jungler to get the vanguard.
As a result, SKT seized the opportunity to switch lanes and the four players gathered together to defeat two defensive towers in G4's bottom lane.After knowing SKT's actions, G2 rushed to press, but Huni cleared the troops in the middle and defended the line, not giving G2 a chance to break the first tower.
Qin Hao commented: "If you can't beat the bottom lane, you can continue to resist the pressure and let the jungler protect you. If they switch lanes like this, they will suffer more losses than if they resist the pressure in the bottom lane. Moreover, even if they switch lanes, they have to go to the bottom lane in advance. The jungler should return to the city early to protect the mid laner.”
A chain reaction occurred, and G2 became a little bit incapable of playing games.
In the next wave, SKT switched to the top lane and relied on Varus' big move to take the lead, killing the top laner Crocodile, and then destroyed G2's second tower in succession.
After this wave, although G2 had the head advantage, its economy was 400 yuan behind.
Just 4 minutes.
G2 didn't understand the problem of lane switching, and it was immediately exposed.
After finding out that G2 won't do it, SKT started to play more and more management.In the end, the two sides fought until the 43rd minute. SKT won the Baron and the Ancient Dragon, ending the game with a head ratio of 10:6, giving G2 no chance to recover.
In the words of the commentary, SKT was at a disadvantage in the early stage, but relied on changing towers and switching lanes, and still turned defeat into victory and won.
Let Qin Hao analyze, except for the parts that G2 did not do well, he found that Little Peanut is indeed a bit uncomfortable with SKT's operating style.
There were a few waves where the G2 jungler found an opportunity to catch Little Peanut simply because he was too devoted to farming.Logically speaking, SKT chooses a double AD combination in the bottom lane, which means they have to press all the time, but the little peanut doesn't have many moves down.
After Wolf finished the interview, he said he had a good impression of Brazil.
It was already around 4:40 in the morning in China.
Some LPL viewers forcibly cheered up and prepared to cheer for LGD.
[Brothers, don’t sleep, it’s time. 】
[Sunday, it’s indeed late. 】
[Fortunately, SKT won quickly. It would be better to wait for five points before seeing the game. 】
[Come on LGD. 】
[Looking forward to Qingshen’s performance. 】
LPL commentary seat.
"After watching the passionate battle between G2 and SKT, we will usher in the battle between LGD and TSM." The remembered voice came out.
"Yes, TSM dominated the North American region this year as always."
Changmao Kepu said, "I won the championship without any pressure."
In the pilot shot.
Players from both sides are already sitting in the players' seats.
The BP session has not started yet.
First, an interview with Svenskeren was played.
"LGD is very strong, but we are not weak either."
He shrugged his shoulders, "In my opinion, Penicillin's real strength lies in his command and his ability to see his own level clearly."
"...Bilson is the real Dharma King, and I will do better than Eimy."
[The race knight is really good at BB. 】Svenskeren was banned from several games by Riot Games for insulting the Chinese in ranked.
[When will TSM win a championship outside the league? 】
[There is a trash like racial knight in the team who can only talk about it. TSM will never be able to do that. 】
[The top [-] every year, they are shouting every year. 】
[It seems that they tortured SSG last year and gave them crazy capital. 】
[Strength is not worthy of tough words. 】
"Well, let's see how LGD performs in their MSI debut."
After Changmao listened, he didn't dare to comment at all, and quickly turned to BP analysis.
"TSM has the right to choose a side in this game, and they took the initiative to choose the red side."
"Choose red? Is this to leave a special counter position for the top lane?"
"I have observed Hauntzer's top laner," remember to help the audience popularize knowledge: "He is one of the best players in TSM this year. He has used heroes such as Captain and Kennen many times to perform brilliantly."
"Captain, Kenan? Sounds a bit like Langx." Changmao laughed: "Both of them should have experience in developing heroes."
"But if we choose the red side, should TSM assume Galio's ban position?" Changmao asked.
I am not very sure about this point: "To be honest, mid laner Galio is not popular in North America. They have tried it, but in the playoffs, when they choose Galio, they still like to move to the top lane, and then let the mid lane fill in. Traditional mages like Tsar, Clockwork, and Syndra.”
Sit down in front of the computer.
Qin Hao didn't know what Big Wolf was thinking, but his body was already heating up...
(End of this chapter)
After winning the championship, there was no rest, and what followed was special training for the 7.8 version stipulated by MSI.
When the LPL was still in the semi-finals.
The US server is already warming up to version 7.8.
In this version, Riot has not adjusted the hero values much, but is more fixing... BUGs, such as some map elements in the Howling Abyss.
If there is anything interesting to talk about in version 7.8, it might be that it released a promotional video of the new heroes Xia and Luo. In terms of action display, Luo ran all the way, charming many enemies, and rushed to Xia's side, talking and interacting during the process. Lines.
As the designer previously revealed on Twitter, the new heroes will be a bottom lane couple with a unique interaction mechanism.
Other than that, we can’t tell much from the promotional video. We can only roughly guess that Luo has a group control function called Acceleration Charm. Xayah can fly in the air, cannot be locked on, and can attack enemies with feathers.
The night after winning the championship.
Heart communicated with the coaching staff of RNG and WE in advance.
Just like that, a training team consisting of top laner 957, jungler Condi, mid laner Xiye, and bottom laner Uzi and Ming appeared in the battle room.
For Uzi, he really needs Ming to keep up with his thinking and requires high-intensity confrontation to work out the details.
For Condi, he lost the Spring Showdown and was ridiculed that the pirated version of Wild King could not beat the genuine version, and he was holding his breath in his heart.Just like what he said in trash talk, they worked harder this season than last year, and they can see the progress of the team, so they naturally have expectations of winning a championship.
Not only is he worthy of the boring training, but he has been out for so long and still has no real honor to prove himself, which is always a bit disappointing.
After all, as a jungler, who would think other junglers are strong?
This position depends more on ideas and coordination.It's not a solo matchup, but a clear gap can be seen in matchups of similar intensity.
Moreover.
It feels really uncomfortable to be ridiculed.
Now when Condi opens the counter, he can always see people making fun of him, some are very malicious, and some are just making fun of him.He knew that the audience's rank was certainly not as high as his own, but the problem was that they really set the goal of winning the championship.
They reached the top of Group B, and they sent RNG out [-]-[-]. They wanted to win everything.
Similarly, 60E expected to see the drama of the Red Miracle and use a spring championship to clear away the haze of the past three years. In the end, they only saw the home team being swept by LGD three to zero.After the game, I was ridiculed by RNG fans, sorry.
Even because of the order of first out, last out, 957 was devalued as worthless.
One game over.
Cvmax looked a little angry and shouted at Big Wolf in front of everyone: "You don't have to kill the opponent alone, but you have to win the line?! Do you understand to win the line?"
"Axiba, just getting a spring crown will make you complacent. Among this group of people, you are the least qualified."
The big wolf was stunned.
He didn't know why 957 was so excited.Just now, his Kennen was knocked home three times by 957 Jess in the lane, basically declaring that the lane was bad.
He didn't know why Brother Mai changed his attitude so quickly. He was obviously in a good mood at the dinner party last night, but today he came to humiliate him again.
With the words "least qualified", Big Wolf immediately turned red.It turns out that the performance of holding the Silver Dragon Cup all the way yesterday was noticed by the coach.
only……
Big Wolf felt aggrieved. He felt that he was not complacent and was not satisfied with the present.
Besides, Kennen is not that easy to beat Jace.Unless you move very well and can avoid Jayce's enhanced cannon, this matchup is all about resisting pressure.
Cvmax didn’t think so. He felt that Big Wolf did not regard winning the line as a task that must be completed. In other words, he felt that Big Wolf was just satisfied with the moment and did not listen to his words.
Yes, there is no problem with my training attitude, and I don’t arrive late or leave early.
But working hard doesn't mean you have the right attitude. It can only mean that there is still hope. If you know you are not good enough, you are willing to spend time practicing.
Qin Hao and others were as silent as a cicada, not daring to speak at all.It was like a storm suddenly arose on the calm sea level, and they were too late to save themselves, let alone the big wolf.
He just looked at the big wolf's temperature rising, the exposed veins on his neck, and his red face, and knew how much the big wolf was suffering at the moment.
Qin Hao didn't dare to think about how he would react if his coach criticized him like this.As a bystander, he already felt uncomfortable.
IMP can understand it very well. He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it that day when he was having dinner and drinking.
the other side.
Hongmi is also communicating with the team members.
He deliberately sighed: "Look, they have won so many honors and they haven't stopped..." He meant that after the Spring Finals, they immediately scheduled a training match.
This sentence has achieved very good results here. Condi and Xiye nodded repeatedly, feeling that LGD could do this in pursuit of results. Compared with them, it seemed like they didn't do anything special in the Spring Split.
Thinking about it this way, my dissatisfaction with the coaching staff lessened.
They were still holding their breath after being punished for oversleeping.After all, the control was not so strict last year, and I occasionally miss the more casual days before, where I could play whatever I wanted in training matches.
……
A conflict that might break out was silently handled by the big wolf. C Bo doesn’t know what is the biggest change in the Big Wolf compared to the beginning of the season?
Strength, hero pool or understanding of the game?
Maybe these are all, but he feels that a big change is that the big wolf is becoming less and less red wolf.Although he is still popular, the red wolf who clamored to go solo with the coach is gone.
He stared at the expressionless face of the big wolf for a long time.
The big wolf couldn't stand Qin Hao looking at him like this, and finally said, "What are you doing!"
The tone lacked due respect, but the big wolf was really in a bad mood right now.Just because he endures it doesn't mean he can be like a normal person.To be honest, if drawing a circle helps, he has already cursed Mai ÷ a hundred times.
"I know you're not feeling well." Qin Hao confessed the reason why he came over.
Big Wolf:......
He didn't know what to say. If he could, he hoped it was Brother Mai who said this and apologized to him, saying, "I just got up and my brain was not in a good state, so I spoke a bit harshly."It's just that this only exists in his imagination. Big Wolf has never seen Brother Mai surrender to anyone on the team, including Heart.
The mood of this day was really full of twists and turns. I just woke up and continued the good mood of Spring Crown. The familiar training room also became unfamiliar. When I saw Qin Hao in the solo queue, I felt that this honor was nothing compared to Qin Hao. neither.
He thought that the day would just go by. It couldn't be said to be dull, but it wasn't that lively either. But during a training match, he didn't know whether it was because he was in poor condition or because 957 was too energetic, which led to him being yelled at.
Grass!
Today is not a good day at all!
Looking at the big wolf's constipated face, Qin Hao patted him on the shoulder and said that we can recreate the game between Jace and Kenan more, "My Jace, it should be okay."
The big wolf's expressionless face slowly turned away.He wanted to curse, "At this time, you still have to show off in front of me."Your Jace is more than okay. Have you forgotten about the last time I hit level [-] until I couldn’t eat the thread?
"What's the point of practicing with you?" After saying this, Big Wolf felt a little regretful.He felt that he should not take out his anger on Qin Hao.
Bad bad bad.Not only will I have to experience public humiliation today, but I will also have to temporarily disconnect from Brother Hao.
Unexpectedly, Qin Hao did not have a gloomy face, but smiled and said, "It will help if you practice more. If it doesn't work in one day, then just a week."
In Qin Hao's world, there is no matchup that cannot be solved with a week of hard practice. If it still doesn't work, then two weeks or one month.
None of this will work. The difference between the heroes will be too large, and it will not be possible to do a good job with enough details.For example, there are relatively extreme matchups between Nightmare and Kassadin, and Lucian and Kassadin. For the 10-minute line, Kassadin would never dare to pretend in front of Nightmare and Lucian.
"..."
"I'm afraid of wasting your time."
"Solo is not a waste of time."
This sentence makes so much sense, Big Wolf doesn’t know how to refuse.
"Then... get a room?"
"I'm ready."
"Okay, wait for me, I'll go wash my face."
……
In the office, Cvmax and Sask are reviewing the game between SKT and KT for the third time.
But the more I review the game, the more Cvmax feels that SKT is like that.Although they also swept [-]-[-], KT made more mistakes than WE.
PawN and Mata gave too many opportunities, and SKT won without pressure.
another.
Cvmax discovered at the beginning of the season that KT had a very bad problem, that is, they had too many ideas for team battles. When it came to performance, they were inconsistent and their skills were given very hastily.
For now, KT's top lane is considered the team's strongest point, and their jungle performance is stable.
But when it comes to lane transitions and team battles, the top laner doesn’t like to be in the front, the mid laner has too many ideas, and the jungler is occasionally a half beat too late, making it seem like the AD is always out of touch, playing damage alone, and finding positions is extremely awkward.
If you only watch the finals, you may even feel that Deft is holding back. The top three LPL players in the mid-level and lower auxiliary positions have beaten the LCK elite. It is strange that he chose his position.
But if you watch the entire Spring Split, you will find that this is the normal situation of KT. No one of them protects AD. Nosuke is looking for opportunities to harass the formation. He plays damage on the side or behind the top lane. As an AD, if you want to join the team, you can only It may become something like Deft.
Unless you choose Jhin, your positioning will be strange. After all, in SKT's eyes, Deft is always exposed, and it's there when you rush.
Before the game, Cvmax read the public opinion on the Korean Open. SKT fans generally hope that Huni can withstand it and that Deft will die in a team battle.It can only be said that SKT fans are overthinking this.
Playing KT doesn't need to be so troublesome at all.
During the laning phase, I had the advantage in the middle lane. Lulu was able to kill PawN's Enchantress in lane, and even Peanut was invincible. In the three games, I broke through from the bottom lane first, forced my status and skills, and defeated Deft and Mata frequently. out.
"That's it, I can't tell much."
After taking notes and roughly circling the field of view and route selection of Little Peanut, when the assistant left the office, Cvmax had nothing to do and browsed the Korean website.
Suddenly I saw a post with a lot of views and replies. I clicked on it and found out that it was an SKT fan opening champagne.
Just looking at the content in the post, it seems easy to be convinced.To say that there is a great chance of two consecutive MSIs, it is self-evident which team this two consecutive MSIs refers to.
After all, after last year's MSI, SKT fans felt that they had taken revenge and wiped away the shame of S5's loss to EDG.
Cvmax still remembers that in S5, when SKT's popularity collapsed for the first time, they were said to be embarrassing. Mitsukoshi's actions on the road were repeatedly criticized, which made MaRin depressed.
[Huni can withstand Smeb, the midfielder is in great shape, and Bang is a ruthless output machine. They will definitely help us win the MSI championship. 】
[The spring game has gone through some ups and downs, but the finals will prove who is the king! 】
[Even in S5, the Spring Battle was never so easy. 】
[Faker plus Peanut is the best midfielder, I’ve said it before. 】
[It’s terrible, the powerful KT was swept directly. 】
[I can’t imagine how invincible this SKT team is. 】
Cvmax shook his head repeatedly, but if he went to see the anti-bar, he would also find such a sound.
Just like the LCK audience, it is easy to fall into the mood of comparison. Kangba saw SKT being so fierce in the finals, beating KT so hard that KT was breathless. In the third game, PawN made an operational error and was single-killed by Faker Lulu.
After watching such a game, they can easily feel that this SKT team is very strong, terrifyingly strong.
After all, everyone is still seeing images of the three heroes of the LPL defeating their contemporaries. In their eyes, Deft is too strong. After he left, EDG fell directly to the second tier, and no longer had the calmness of a league hegemon;
PawN is also incredibly strong. The word "PawN dad" is enough to explain Starch's mood towards the mid lane at that time, that is, there is no need to worry about being invisible in the mid lane;
Mata...well, Zyra the Windspeaker wiped out the wind criticism, and the ones who scolded her the most after the game were RNG fans.It’s just that as a veteran with rich competition experience, he will definitely not be weak after returning to the LCK.
During the transfer period, I was bragging about KT Galaxy Battleship, but it turned out that such a strong Galaxy Battleship had no room to resist when faced with SKT.
[To be clear in advance, I am not unusual, but SKT is really strong this year.Even Huni, who is talked about the most, also played in the Rambo Salvation game (the one with 8 output), and he also resisted Smeb in the finals. 】
[Let me describe it to you this way, Score is already playing relatively well, but his performance is still not as good as Peanut. 】
[The mid laner was suppressed. PawN was still the best player in the LPL, but in the finals he became a worm. 】
[You can only find the presence of Deft by looking at the panel output. 】
[It feels a bit like our finals. KT can play in the lane, but can't handle team battles. The operation is not as good as SKT, and the vision is worse than SKT. 】There are humans comparing the performance of WE facing LGD in the LPL Spring Finals.
[Yes, WE also has Condi as a person, and his brother-in-law does a lot of damage. 】
[So Xiye is equal to PawN? 】
【957 equals Smeb? 】
[Laughing to death, 60E is still washing, and it’s all washed up on KT. Can 957 and Xiye be better than PawN and Smeb?Don’t pee and look in the mirror either. 】
[957 What kind of hero pool is compared with Smeb? 】
[Then Smeb is so strong, why didn’t he defeat Huni? Isn’t it said that Smeb is the best in the world?What about the results? 】
[Smeb hasn’t achieved results yet. He has Xia Guan, but what does 957 have?Moreover, that Xia Guan ranked first in the poisonous milk list based on winning lines, and ranked No. 2 in terms of data fault. 】
[Both were league runners-up, and their opponents were S-race champions, and both were defeated three to zero.Why do you think KT is invincible? 】
[Collection, KT is so strong, but it actually won one game in the finals, and it feels so confident even after losing. 】
[Is it possible that distance creates beauty?If KT cannot win the championship in the LPL with this configuration, I can’t even think of resisting Ba’s aggressiveness. 】
[KT spent the most money during the transfer period. No one thinks they like to finish second. 】
The MSI group stage hasn't started yet.
The LPL audience watched the rookies pecking each other in the finals, and they were more willing to discuss such topics.
Focusing on whether SKT is invincible, whether LGD can withstand Huni on the road, swapping teams, Peanut is a hundred times stronger than Eimy, and who has the problem with KT, the galactic battleship, the discussion in the anti-bar is very "passionate".
Anyway, no matter what kind of topic comes to the confrontation, it will eventually turn into personal attacks and blame each other.
Not 2 days.
There are a lot of idiots, lemons, and pigs in the counter bar, as well as idiots who can’t understand the game.
It's July 5th.
After a week of special training at the base, LGD flew to Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Before boarding the plane, Qin Hao updated a Weibo message - [Let's go, MSI. 】
a time.
The comment area was very lively again, with fans sending their blessings one after another.
【Must work hard! 】
【Believe in Qingshen. 】
[Can you share your thoughts on SKT? 】
[Hey, I have been criticized in the counter bar for the past two days. Apart from the middle lane, Ueno cannot stand up to Huni and Peanut. 】
[Ah, this can all be put aside. 】
[Yes, that post said that Faker has been much more stable this season, and the heroes he plays are more team-oriented. Compared to the whole team, we are not as good as SKT. 】
[I just hope that Mai ÷ can be normal and not choose a tightrope lineup. 】
[Brother, you know, I’m also afraid of BP messing around. 】
There was a lot of noise.
The other teams that arrived in Brazil were obviously very capable.
G2's official Twitter seems to be very dissatisfied with the comments from the outside world that they are optimistic about LGD and SKT entering the finals.
The night of the 8th.
G2 artists worked hard, and in the updated four-square cartoon, LGD, SKT and TSM were lifted high and thrown to the ground by the strongman symbolized by G2.
Just the first comment below makes me nervous.
TSM: G2-8?
Twitter viewers who knew the meme were amused.What’s interesting about this joke is that G2016 participated in MSI in 2 and was eliminated 2-8 in the group stage, which was similar to the wild card team’s record.
Such NB's performance naturally became a joke for North American audiences to mock the European division.
Afterwards, G2 said they would wait and see.
Compared with outside predictions.
After arriving in Brazil, LGD couldn't find a capable team to train with, so Qin Hao had a lot of time to play solo with Big Wolf.
His understanding of the top laner is not deep enough.
Sometimes there will be mistakes in calculating the round of troops. Just talking about solo, Big Wolf feels that Qin Hao's strength is outstanding enough.
Maybe he plays the mid lane, and his skills are generally more delicate. Every time Big Wolf fights Qin Hao, he has to concentrate on his positioning.
The hotel's temporarily renovated e-sports room.
The experience of watching C Bo for a while told him that Big Wolf's game was much better than before.If I was training with WE that day and Kenan of the Big Wolves beat Jayce and only went home twice in 10 minutes, I feel that the coach would not be angry.
Swish.
Kennen crosses E and moves in a z-shape. While dodging the cannon, he carefully controls the distance to exchange blood with Jace.In a round like this where Jace spends his time over the grass, it is beneficial to fight back properly. If he is simply beaten, he will easily get rolled.
A round is over.
Qin Hao praised: "Awesome, big wolf."
Qin Hao always said this, but Lang Xing was still very happy. What made him happy was not that he was praised, but that he felt that his condition was pretty good and he was not overpowered by Jace.
"The coach is not here." C Bo curled his lips, unable to see his brother being proud.
"Go ahead and play your ranking. Let's play another round." Taking advantage of the good feeling in his hand, Big Wolf wanted to find out more. At this time, his idea was right.
"Row."
When he enters solo, Qin Hao doesn't like to talk anymore. He likes to finish his speech.
C Bo was bored, so he went to the bathroom and came back to continue solo queue.
The schedule for the first day of the group stage has already been announced.
Each of the 6 teams will play twice a day, and the group matches will be completed in just 5 days.
basically.
The promotion situation can be seen in the first two days, and the next three days will be for the two or three teams in the middle.
Previously, LPL viewers saw the LJL team leading a team to participate for the first time and expected the Japanese team to advance. Who knew that the Japanese team was just making a joke.Novices are playing against each other, and they can still be 3K behind in the lane.
Another solo round ends.
Qin Hao felt that if this game was taken as a test, he could only score 50 points against WE Wolf in the training games, but now he can score around 7 or 80 points.
This is how he rated himself in the simulation space as well.
Calculate an average number.
In a similar matchup situation, roughly where the passing line is, and then feel it game by game, see what kind of exchange ideas will be more comfortable.
Fortunately, Dalang didn't know his rating level with Qin Haona.
He feels that he has made great progress.
Although this matchup has the possibility of a level [-] game, Qin Hao has never given him a chance to fully charge up. The only things that can be improved are relying on lanes and last hits.
But this is already pretty good.
If the hero Jace is selected, if the laning advantage is not enough, Kennen will actually have the advantage on the wing in the mid-to-late stage.The advantage here refers to AD Kennen.
When the two of them were confirming the details, they didn't notice that Cvmax had come in.
Cvmax himself saw it clearly and lamented that having such a player in the team makes the management work much easier.Of course, he didn't like saying this and didn't show it.
As a former professional top laner, he certainly understands that he is a bit harsh on Big Wolf. At normal levels, Jayce who cannot suppress Kenan in the first six levels would be derelict in his duty. But in his heart, as a professional player, he must not lose his aggressiveness.
He doesn't care if his words hurt others, as long as the team members take them seriously, he can be a villain.Thinking of this, Cvmax thought that the current training volume was a bit overwhelming and he should return to normal two days before the opening of the group.
Late at night.
Cvmax looked at the bright lights in the room, and his heart became calmer...
5 month 9 number.
Qin Hao and others squeezed out time to shoot a promotional video with Riot.
... Problems such as too many vehicles and traffic jams have caused a certain degree of trouble in the street scenes of the promotional video.
But Qin Hao didn't expect that after filming the promotional video, he would be surrounded by several people.
"Penicillin, what do you think of St. Paul?"
“Do you feel the enthusiasm of the Brazilian audience for League Esports?”
"Penicillin, what do you think about dunking and saying that LGD is very strong?"
"Since the World Championships, Faker has worked hard on Yanjai. I usually encounter him in ranked. What do you think of his Yanjai level?"
Next to him, the translator hired by Riot just led him back. Qin Hao had no idea what these people with their microphones were trying to do.
For a moment he thought it was someone from the TV station.
It wasn't until he returned to the lounge that Qin Hao knew it might be a few media people.To be honest, before coming here, Qin Hao had never thought that Brazil had such enthusiasm for e-sports.
When we were filming the promotional video just now, some local people also liked to come over and say hello.
It can only be said that Qin Hao underestimated his influence.
So far, when it comes to the league, of course Faker is the most famous.
However, as a mid laner who shone in last year's World Championship, Qin Hao's commanding voice often appears in the highlights released by Riot Games. As a result, among some young people in Brazil, Penicillin's audience popularity is no worse than that of Faker.
After all, as the team's main conductor, he deserves to be looked upon highly no matter where he is.
Compared with Qin Hao's confusion.
Cvmax is being interviewed by hometown media.
The Korean media are of course very curious about him. Who is not curious about the coach who coaches the championship team?
"Hello."
Cvmax seemed a little excited to see the media people from his hometown.What he dreams of is to have a successful career and not be looked down upon by his family.
"I enjoyed your interview very much." Cvmaxi said proactively.He is not just being polite. Just like LPL has self-media such as Hedgehog Esports Club, in South Korea, OGN TV station also has a similar team that tracks the esports industry.
soon.
Chatted with each other for a few words.
The male reporter entered today's main topic: "We all know that you played top laner in Samsung before. What was the reason that made you want to be a coach in LGD?"
Cvmax was very direct: "Brother Guan Jiong (Heart) called me. When I heard that LGD was short of a coach, I couldn't bear to refuse."
He added: "No one should be able to refuse such a call, not to mention that I was... living a relatively bad life at the time. I relied on the support of a few friends to avoid starving to death."
"Second question, this MSI includes G2 from the European division and TSM from the North American division... With so many top teams gathered together, what is your goal for the team?"
"Champion." Cvmax said firmly: "I am paying attention to SKT's games. They have some problems now."
The male reporter was a little surprised, but quickly covered it up.It's just that as an e-sports person, he rarely sees people who are so tactful towards his hometown team.
It’s okay to aim for the championship, everyone will say this. Even if you don’t have confidence, you can’t lose.
But you could at least cover it up and say, "SKT is so strong, there will be a winner and loser," shouldn't you regard yourself as a challenger?
SKT was the champion of last year's MSI, which is full of gold!
The male reporter tried to be as tactful as possible: "Are you referring to SKT in the regular season?" At that time, they were still getting used to it, and the game was generally normal.
"No, I watched the finals. The main reason why SKT was 4-[-] was because KT played too chaotically." Cvmax is not afraid of being scolded. He has always dared to say: "To be honest, this may be the second worst period since the establishment of SKT. , only a little better than S[-]."
Male reporter: ...
Do you know that even they, the e-sports media, don’t like to review S4.
Korea Net doesn’t like Samsung that much.
OGN TV replays classic games every year. During the spring and summer playoffs and World Championships during the S4 period, the average number of viewers has always been low.
There is a saying that goes well, battle reports can lie, but battle lines cannot.
Both are championship teams, and the audience has never ranked Samsung and SKT together.Compared with SKT's discussion, Samsung seems to have no presence.
To be honest, they won't invite Samsung when they hold events. People from SKT are enough.The audience likes it and is happy with it.
After hearing this outrageous statement.
The male reporter tacitly changed the subject and talked about other teams.
Wait until this interview is over.
They know that if the report is released, Cvmax will be criticized by the public.
But what does this have to do with them?
the next morning.
The video of the interview was released and the text version was updated on Twitter.
As expected, the phrases "KT played too chaotically" and "the second worst period" successfully offended most of the Korean audience.
People have said: Who is Cvmax?
[Laughs, a person who has only played as a substitute in OGN is qualified to talk about a great team? 】
[Is this person suffering from delusion?I remember when LGD won the championship, the coach was not him. 】
[It is true that he should go to the hospital to check his brain nerves, but it doesn’t matter. After two days of competition, he will have a correct understanding. 】
[I hope LGD can survive 30 minutes. 】
[Every cat and dog can comment on the game, can he understand it as a substitute? 】
[Am I the only one who thinks he looks like a clown? The LPL will only want people that our region doesn’t want. 】
No matter how.
This interview with Cvmax successfully made Korean audiences recognize him.
Before this, the Korean audience had a vague impression of him. They only knew that LGD had strengthened the coaching staff. After that, I believe they will not be too unfamiliar with Cvmax's ID.
As a coach.
Dare to say controversial things, which is unique in itself.
When the news spread, everyone was shocked.
[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called him Mai÷. 】
[Oh no, I dare to say so. 】
[Even SKT dares to comment, don’t you want to go back? 】
[Indeed, Zhen Ta Ma has personality. 】
After 2 days.
The MSI group stage begins.
In terms of game time, it is not friendly to LPL viewers.
Because China time is 11 hours ahead of Brazil time.
Two in the morning.
Many people were forced to stay up late to watch the game.
As the countdown ended, the venue fell into darkness.
Wait until the light comes back on.
There were cheers from the Brazilian audience.
Then, scenes of winning the Spring Split and winning the trophy appeared on the big screen.After that, the promotional video recorded by Riot appeared on the big screen.
The camera switches between buildings and street scenes. Perkz faces the camera: "No matter what, the results must be better than last year."
TSM assistant Biofrost: "As the representative team of the North American region, we have been eager to match the honor of the major region for a long time."
After each contestant passed by, a burst of cheers erupted from the scene.
On the big screen, Faker's picture appeared. Compared with others, he seemed to be standing at a high place looking at the camera.
Faker: "We have won one MSI championship, but it is not enough."
The picture belonging to SKT ends.
Finally, cheers broke out again, and Qin Hao's face appeared in the camera, like a promise and a memory: "Last year, LPL lost. This year, we have only one goal, and that is the championship."
……
The statements in the promotional video are very strong.
Anyone can feel the smell of gunpowder.
When the atmosphere in the venue was aroused by these contents, the host used his enthusiastic voice to bring the audience back to the game.
"...This is Sao Paulo...Six spring champions from all major regions around the world will compete here to determine the four finalists! Then, they will go to Rio de Janeiro, where they will determine the champion !!”
【Hahahahaha! 】
[Brazilians are so funny. When I heard this tongue flick, I thought I was watching a football match. 】
[It’s okay, I dare to shout. Regardless of whether I understand it or not, at least it’s very enthusiastic. 】
[Indeed, looking at the scene, it seems that everyone is full. 】
The lights focus again.
The Brazilian audience gave a new round of cheers.
Next, the host introduced in turn the representative team from the European region G2, the LMS region representative team FW, the Vietnam region representative team GAM, the veteran strong team TSM in the North American region, the LPL region representative team LGD, and SKT, who played last and needed to return the trophy.
"It's just a trophy, why is it so grand?"
C Bo stood beside Qin Hao and muttered.
"Who are you optimistic about in the first game?" C Bo asked again.
"do not know."
Qin Hao looked at Faker, who was smiling diagonally in front of him, and what was most in his mind was the look of looking back.After the World Championships, this looking back photo appeared so frequently that it was difficult for Qin Hao to forget it.
The audience in front of the screen didn't know that LGD was standing there and secretly chatting. They were frantically posting comments.
[Damn, when I talk about last year, I think of RNG being beaten to pieces by a wet nurse and a wheel mom. 】
[A competition is always so confusing. According to this situation, can I see LGD playing TSM at around four o'clock? 】
[Stop procrastinating. I will be at eight tomorrow morning. Please let me sleep for at least four hours. 】
The official time given is around 4 o'clock, LGD will play TSM.
The opening game is G2 playing SKT.
[Guess how long G2 can last in the hands of SKT?I guess it won't last 30 minutes. 】
[Come on, guess what’s the point of G2? Last year’s group stage was 2-8. This year, I’ll guess 3-7. There must be some improvement. 】
[Haha, 3-7 is too bad. This record still won’t make it to the semi-finals. 】
[Semi-finals G2?I think GAM has a higher probability of entering the semi-finals than G2. 】
[Indeed, G2 only has a strong mouth. 】
[It seems that there is no one left in the European League, and teams like G2 come every year. 】
Chatting on the barrage.
These late-night parties finally managed to survive the various programs arranged by the organizers.
One thing to say, if it weren't for the unfriendly schedule, Brazil's content was quite exciting and it also showed enthusiasm. The key is the night. The LPL audience only wants to watch the game and not the program.
To the applause.
Qin Hao and others left the venue through the passage and returned to the lounge.
soon.
The opening match begins.
The overall configuration of G2 has not changed much from last year, so naturally the competitive level has not changed much from last year.
"Haha, Faker sent the first kill in this MSI."
"Hey, why are G2 so aggressive? Don't be too aggressive."
At the commentary desk, the long-haired ones and those who remember to have fun.
The two teams played for 10 minutes, and the head-to-head ratio was still 1:0.This is normal, the rhythm of this game is like this, as long as the lane is not murderous, it is not that easy for the jungler to do things.
The only way is to dodge first, and then find an opportunity to eat the head after the next wave.
In the early 11s.
The SKT duo used the combination of Poverus' ultimate move and the auxiliary female gun to directly defeat Han Bing.
Immediately on G2's side, Blind Sin crouched down and succeeded, and roundhouse kicked Wolf back who missed the combo, allowing his side to get killed by the ice.
If the Peanut Man Gun hadn't been nearby, I'm afraid Bang would have died too.
After this.
G2 played a double team again, catching Bang and Wolf in the bottom lane, allowing Perkz to get a double kill.
see this scene.
The audience began to cheer for G2.
Who would have thought that G2, which was only 8-2 last year, would start 4-0 against the unanimously optimistic SKT team.
It's so dreamy.
Obviously, G2 also felt dreamy, so they drifted away.
After reaching an economic lead of 2600 yuan, it was time to think of ideas.
If the duo must move up, swap your next tower with the opposite tower for the previous one.So far, it's normal, but when the two-man lane is mobilized, G2's midfielder doesn't care about the bottom lane defense at all. Instead, Perkz went to the jungler to get the vanguard.
As a result, SKT seized the opportunity to switch lanes and the four players gathered together to defeat two defensive towers in G4's bottom lane.After knowing SKT's actions, G2 rushed to press, but Huni cleared the troops in the middle and defended the line, not giving G2 a chance to break the first tower.
Qin Hao commented: "If you can't beat the bottom lane, you can continue to resist the pressure and let the jungler protect you. If they switch lanes like this, they will suffer more losses than if they resist the pressure in the bottom lane. Moreover, even if they switch lanes, they have to go to the bottom lane in advance. The jungler should return to the city early to protect the mid laner.”
A chain reaction occurred, and G2 became a little bit incapable of playing games.
In the next wave, SKT switched to the top lane and relied on Varus' big move to take the lead, killing the top laner Crocodile, and then destroyed G2's second tower in succession.
After this wave, although G2 had the head advantage, its economy was 400 yuan behind.
Just 4 minutes.
G2 didn't understand the problem of lane switching, and it was immediately exposed.
After finding out that G2 won't do it, SKT started to play more and more management.In the end, the two sides fought until the 43rd minute. SKT won the Baron and the Ancient Dragon, ending the game with a head ratio of 10:6, giving G2 no chance to recover.
In the words of the commentary, SKT was at a disadvantage in the early stage, but relied on changing towers and switching lanes, and still turned defeat into victory and won.
Let Qin Hao analyze, except for the parts that G2 did not do well, he found that Little Peanut is indeed a bit uncomfortable with SKT's operating style.
There were a few waves where the G2 jungler found an opportunity to catch Little Peanut simply because he was too devoted to farming.Logically speaking, SKT chooses a double AD combination in the bottom lane, which means they have to press all the time, but the little peanut doesn't have many moves down.
After Wolf finished the interview, he said he had a good impression of Brazil.
It was already around 4:40 in the morning in China.
Some LPL viewers forcibly cheered up and prepared to cheer for LGD.
[Brothers, don’t sleep, it’s time. 】
[Sunday, it’s indeed late. 】
[Fortunately, SKT won quickly. It would be better to wait for five points before seeing the game. 】
[Come on LGD. 】
[Looking forward to Qingshen’s performance. 】
LPL commentary seat.
"After watching the passionate battle between G2 and SKT, we will usher in the battle between LGD and TSM." The remembered voice came out.
"Yes, TSM dominated the North American region this year as always."
Changmao Kepu said, "I won the championship without any pressure."
In the pilot shot.
Players from both sides are already sitting in the players' seats.
The BP session has not started yet.
First, an interview with Svenskeren was played.
"LGD is very strong, but we are not weak either."
He shrugged his shoulders, "In my opinion, Penicillin's real strength lies in his command and his ability to see his own level clearly."
"...Bilson is the real Dharma King, and I will do better than Eimy."
[The race knight is really good at BB. 】Svenskeren was banned from several games by Riot Games for insulting the Chinese in ranked.
[When will TSM win a championship outside the league? 】
[There is a trash like racial knight in the team who can only talk about it. TSM will never be able to do that. 】
[The top [-] every year, they are shouting every year. 】
[It seems that they tortured SSG last year and gave them crazy capital. 】
[Strength is not worthy of tough words. 】
"Well, let's see how LGD performs in their MSI debut."
After Changmao listened, he didn't dare to comment at all, and quickly turned to BP analysis.
"TSM has the right to choose a side in this game, and they took the initiative to choose the red side."
"Choose red? Is this to leave a special counter position for the top lane?"
"I have observed Hauntzer's top laner," remember to help the audience popularize knowledge: "He is one of the best players in TSM this year. He has used heroes such as Captain and Kennen many times to perform brilliantly."
"Captain, Kenan? Sounds a bit like Langx." Changmao laughed: "Both of them should have experience in developing heroes."
"But if we choose the red side, should TSM assume Galio's ban position?" Changmao asked.
I am not very sure about this point: "To be honest, mid laner Galio is not popular in North America. They have tried it, but in the playoffs, when they choose Galio, they still like to move to the top lane, and then let the mid lane fill in. Traditional mages like Tsar, Clockwork, and Syndra.”
Sit down in front of the computer.
Qin Hao didn't know what Big Wolf was thinking, but his body was already heating up...
