LOL: My talent is top-tier, my professional skills are unparalleled.

Chapter 274 Wolf-Head Shoes! He's got another trick up his sleeve!
"It really is Tahm Kench!"

Maokai let out a strange cry, then said with some regret, "We should have banned Tahm Kench earlier."

Wang Yao smiled and said, "I want to ban everything, but there are only three ban slots, and there aren't enough slots."

"We can't be too greedy. Their system is well-established, but we also have our own system."

Wang Yao added, "Ma Bao will probably pick the hero last, and Xuan Jun will pick after Harabi. We'll see if Harabi can hold his own later."

Saint Gun said slyly, "We'll take out all those tanks later!"

"Then let Harabi play the damage dealer role, let's go for the combo this time."

As they were talking, Flash Wolves used their fourth pick to remove Braum.

EDG immediately banned Ornn.

Flash Wolves countered by banning Dawn, and now almost all the support heroes with high pick rates are banned.

EDG wanted to ban Sion, but after thinking about it, they didn't do as Flandre suggested because they couldn't ban all the tanks.

Shen and the big bug are both outside.

If Harabi really wants to be safe, he can take the big tree.

This ban slot was given to Taliyah.

Besides Mama Bao's proficiency with Taliyah, EDG also wants to limit FW's wave clear ability.

Wang Yao knew very well that Galio was chosen for him to play.

If Taliyah is banned, Karma won't be able to pick her, and Ryze will be banned by himself. If it were Aurelion Sol, Mama's Boy definitely wouldn't dare to pick him, so he would have to change his playstyle.

At this year's MSI, Mama's Boys were still very good at setting the pace, so FW tried to adopt a fast-paced offensive lineup.

KZ suffered two consecutive losses in the BO1 series, caught off guard by the Electric Wolves' early moves. EDG will definitely need to be on guard.

After the ban was lifted, the Flash Wolves discussed the matter and had Harabbi lock onto the captain.

Judging from their lineup, the Electro Wolves really weren't backing down.

When they played Team Liquid in the group stage, they used a similar strategy, which also lacked tanks. Against EDG, they still trusted themselves.
They played in a familiar way.

Harabbi's captain can use his ultimate to provide support, and he also has an orange to remove crowd control effects, so as long as nothing major happens in lane, everything will be fine.

"EDG picked Morgana on the fourth floor."

Miller said, "Morgana has a total of 8 games played, with a winning percentage of 50%."

"Tahm Kench and Ezreal might still use the double minion dematerializer to push the lane. Morgana and Tristana are very strong at pushing the lane, so they are not afraid at all."

"Should we consider adding a tank as our last pick? Our current lineup is similar to FW's, both being rather fragile."

"Jace!"

On the fifth floor of EDG, Jayce's image was revealed and locked.

"That means Galio mid, Jayce top, and Camille jungle!"

"EDG is playing aggressively, not even thinking about picking tanky champions. This is their way of playing aggressively!"

Wang Duoduo laughed and said, "Harabi might be regretting it a bit. He's going to be targeted as the captain. He should have chosen Sion earlier."

Coach Warhorse frowned as he sat on the FW players' bench.

Looking at EDG's lineup, an idea popped into his head.

Move the captain to the middle lane and give him to Maple.

There shouldn't be any major problems with Galio. If we pick another tank for the top lane, then FW's lineup will have more room for error.

Not to mention the 2018 season, even since the summer split last year, Maple has never used any AD carry champions in the mid lane other than Corki.

He lost his only game in the Summer Split with Jayce in the mid lane, let alone when he picked Gangplank.

In the 2018 LMS Spring Regular Season, Ma Bao used a total of 9 mid-lane champions, but they were all traditional AP mages.

The warhorse scratched its head.

This is bad news, the mama's boy doesn't have that hero pool!

Staring at the ID of EDG's mid laner, WarHorse was genuinely envious of Maokai.

If Mama's Boy had a hero pool like Wang Yao's, his tactical changes would be much more flexible.

After some discussion, FW finally picked Vladimir for the mid lane.

Vampire has a Blood Pool when facing ganks, and can also initiate team fights. He can't beat Galio in pushing lanes, but he can hold his lane well.

Even as the game progresses, their lineup remains formidable.

EDG is generally fragile. Once Harabi gets ahead, he might just land a well-placed powder keg in a team fight and EDG will be finished.

Both sides adopted unconventional tactics, which is something to be happy about for the fans watching the match. After all the heroes were locked, they switched positions.

The two teams seemed to have agreed beforehand to switch hero positions.

For example, Galio and Jayce are constantly being swapped, as are the vampire and the captain from the other side.

With 30 seconds left, the lineup is locked.

EDG: Top lane Jayce, jungle Camille, mid lane Galio, bot lane Tristana + Morgana.

FW: Top lane Gangplank, Jungle Graves, Mid lane Vladimir, Bot lane Ezreal and Tahm Kench.

……

Maokai and Warhorse Coach walked to the center of the stage and shook hands for the first time in the finals in front of the golden trophy of MSI.

Amid cheers from the audience at the Tianzheng Stadium, the match officially began.

EDG was very aggressive, grouping up at level 1 and heading straight into FW's jungle.

The two sides have a significant strength difference at level 1. EDG can form a control chain. If Camille kicks, the opponent will be hit by Morgana's Q, inevitably giving up first blood.

Flash Wolves are very cautious; they are extremely careful when they leave the base at level 1.

When Mama Bao reached the bush behind the Blue Buff and saw EDG crossing the river, he immediately placed a ward and retreated, constantly pinging the retreat signal. Tahm Kench followed him and retreated.

Meiko glanced at the vampire's location and gave up on the idea of ​​learning the Q skill.

Betty left a ward in the blue buff area, then retreated back to the second tower, not daring to stay under the next tower.

EDG's five players take turns tanking the tower, and even at level 1, they'll still overtake you without hesitation.

In their first defensive push, the Flash Wolves did a good job.

However, EDG did not stop.

Instead, they stayed in the Flash Wolves' blue zone.

Jayce, who came with them, brought a scanner. He immediately cleared the trinket ward that Betty had placed in the blue buff area, then recalled to base to change his trinket, and then went back to the top lane.

Flash Wolves lost vision of EDG, and fearing being ambushed, Moojin immediately controlled Graves to farm the red buff in the top half of the map.

Harabbi went to EDG's blue buff area and placed his ward there.

Both sides tacitly switched jungle areas.

The War Horse coach, watching from backstage, remained unmoved.

These actions were taken into consideration when they were selecting personnel.

For FW, this may not necessarily be a bad thing.

Graves was always active in the top half of the map, so Jayce didn't dare to be too arrogant.

Captain has a tough time against Jayce in the laning phase, but he becomes much stronger once he levels up and gets his items, which will make Harabbi more comfortable.

As for the bot lane, it's Ezreal and Tahm Kench!

Coach Warhorse's lips curled up slightly. "Our Tahm Kench pick was absolutely fantastic!"

However, upon closer inspection of EDG's lineup, Coach WarHorse discovered something unusual.

Galio, wearing shoes out? Is that the Predator Wang Yao brought?

Warhorse was clearly taken aback. In the current version, the standard way to build Galio in the mid lane is with Aftershock!

Then Bone Plating, Renewal, and Steadfastness—almost all of Galio's primary runes follow this template.

In the Mid-Season Invitational, Galio's Aftershock talent pick is 100% regardless of winning or losing.

The warhorse coach squinted.

He didn't understand what Kshine was up to now.

Not only War Horse coach, but the commentators also noticed this problem.

Doll said, "Have you noticed? Kshine's outfit is really strange. She's wearing shoes with wolf heads on them!"

He stared wide-eyed. "This is the first time I've ever seen someone carry a team like this during a competition."

"That's right, Galio is mostly an aftershock."

Miller analyzed, "The Aftershock rune is a perfect fit for Galio. It can provide Galio with double resistance when he applies crowd control abilities to enemy champions, thus making Galio more tanky."

"After Galio triggers Aftershock, he can absorb more damage, both during the laning phase and in team fights, so he won't be easily killed by the enemy."

"But on second thought, predators are also an option."

Wang Duoduo smiled and said, "It's clear that Kshine is going to pull some tricks for us again in this game!"
