Occupation? I won’t even hit a dog!

"You want to use Urgot?"

Coach Dylan Falco is still considering the next Ban/Pick.

Hearing Bwipo's words, his brows furrowed suddenly.

Falling into deep thought.

From the S8 group stage to now, the blue team's win rate is close to 1%, and a ban is particularly necessary in the match against EDG. In the current version, the top laner is still biased towards development, and the T-level top laner is not easy to be defeated. These three reasons together made FNC actively choose the blue side to fight against EDG after winning the coin-guessing round.

In the second game, the right to choose sides was exchanged, and EDG also chose the blue side.

This was a bit unexpected for coach Dylan Falco.

The most important thing in the top lane confrontation is of course the ID, and the second is the counter relationship which cannot be ignored. EDG has a top laner like Ye Tian who is leading in personal ability. They used to like to actively choose the red side to create the most comfortable laning environment and the most suitable space for Carrying the game for Ye Tian.

The latter is much more important than the former.

——It is relatively easy to counterattack and win the laning phase in the top lane, but it is much more difficult to carry the game with a difficult-to-handle lineup.

Damn it, Ye Tian can use Riven to rush to the tower and kill Faker, and kill SKT with one sword, but if he uses Riven first when facing FNC, FNC only needs to come up with a system with sufficient tankiness and control, and the double C has the ability to protect itself, which is enough to make Riven a drag, and it is difficult to be an exception even if the operator is Ye Tian.

Coach Dylan Falco felt that EDG would not switch sides, so he spent a long time designing Ban/Pick based on the blue side.

Hear the staff announce.

Everything needs to be started over again!

trouble.

Very troublesome.

In the FNC team's vision, Akali is a point that absolutely cannot be let go.

There are many teams in the European division that are in a bad state, the competition is not fierce enough, and except for the mid lane, the rigor of other positions cannot be compared with that of the LCK and LPL divisions.

The lower the level of rigor, the more afraid you are of assassins, especially assassins like Akali whose mechanisms are so strong that they are unstoppable.

The system of Caitlyn and Galio are a cancer and cannot be released. If you release Caitlyn and Galio, the bottom lane will definitely be suppressed by the turret + 650-yard range. Not to mention that FNC has only one European master in the bottom lane, even if they bring up their peak high-level masters, they will not be able to withstand it.

In addition to the above two, it’s the turn of Irelia, Aatrox, and Leblanc.

AD Ahri is okay.

As the new king of magic, Caps' personal ability is only higher than Scout's. The reason why he was suppressed was that it was the first time he encountered AD Leblanc and was caught off guard. In addition, as a melee hero, Galio really found it difficult to fight against the ranged AD who has both displacement and control.

If you choose a regular mid laner for Cpas, AD Ahri’s little tricks will not be a threat.

but.

Exclude Leblanc.

It’s impossible to deal with both Irelia and Aatrox, so one of them must be released.

No matter which one is placed, it seems that there is no problem for Bwipo to use Urgot to go on the laning line. From previous games, we can see that Urgot has a very high chance of winning against Aatrox and Irelia.

Then.

Which one should I put?

"It would be better to give it to their sword girl."

Caps took the initiative to say: "Irelia and Aatrox are both heroes that can be swayed. Once EDG grabs Irelia, they may swing Irelia to the middle lane. Scout's level of using Irelia is very average. I can beat him with any hero I pick."

Scout picked Irelia in six games in the summer season and won five of them, with a win rate of 83.33%, which looks quite impressive at first glance.

But upon closer analysis, that's not quite right.

Scout was selected for four games during the period when Irelia had just been reworked, and only picked Irelia in the last two games in September against Snake and JDG. The players he faced were either "three-star" players like SSGuoguo, or the S4 runner-up Yumi who was only half a head away from being buried in the ground, as well as newcomers Icon, Toothpaste and other messy players.

Caps can only describe this kind of record as not worth mentioning. It is no different from the "servant of the student union XX during college" written in his resume. It is a pure deduction.

"Irelia is in the top lane? How do we deal with it?"

Coach Dylan Falco considers every point.

"I'll beat him in the top lane!" Bwipo was full of confidence. "Urgot's hardness is much stronger than Irelia and Fiora. When Tian uses Fiora, he has to flash W to block Urgot's E to win. Irelia doesn't have the countermeasures like Fiora, and she has absolutely no ability to fight back in front of Urgot!"

Seeing the others' skeptical looks, Bwipo thought for a moment and added, "I just experienced this."

"Hmm..." Coach Dylan Falco cast an inquiring look at veteran sOAZ.

"Bwipo is right." sOAZ nodded. "Not only can Irelia not suppress Urgot at the mechanical level like Fiora, but she will be suppressed by Urgot at the mechanical level. The stun of her E skill will cancel each other out, and her R disarm will be completely ignored by Urgot's W. After level 6, it can be said that she is almost missing a big move."

“Tian is indeed very strong, even to a degree that I cannot comprehend, but I don’t think Tian can rely on his personal ability to reverse the laning that is incomparable in terms of attributes and mechanisms.”

"Okay, as long as Urgot is outside, we'll send out Irelia, otherwise we'll send out Aatrox, and use Sion or Ornn to hold him off." Coach Dylan Falco made the decision when he saw that his players had no objections.

the other side.

The EDG members had just finished discussing the same issue.

Sivir is a must-ban character. If Sivir is not banned, FNC will not necessarily give up the ban quota for the Policewoman and Big Boss combination.

This kind of treatment is a sure win for EDG.

After all, from the perspective of the EDG team, they don't need to care too much about what the opponent chooses in the top lane. There are enough ban slots. Giving a ban to the bottom lane means that the opponent will ban one less hero, Ye Tian, ​​which creates more flexible space for Ye Tian to choose players.

Lee Sin needs to be banned to target his unique skills.

Then, if FNC does not ban Irelia in the first two floors, EDG will naturally not release heroes like Kaisa who can catch the edge, laying a solid foundation for Irelia to go to the side lane to develop and exert pressure.

The ten-minute break is over.

The EDG and FNC teams once again took to the main stage.

"Dear summoners, welcome to the 2018 League of Legends World Championship - Quarterfinals, EDG vs. FNC!"

"The second match is now underway."

Wawa announced: "In the first game, EDG's three lanes and jungler completely crushed FNC from the beginning. After losing once, the two sides only exchanged side positions, and FNC did not make any personnel adjustments."

"I still have a lot of trust in the newcomer Bwipo." Miller added.

"Yes, I trust him." Wawa agreed, "But when Bwipo was suppressed by Tian Ge, or more accurately, was completely defeated, I think FNC would pass the ball more to the middle and bottom lanes, letting Caps or Rekkles take on the responsibility of carrying the game. To be honest, Bwipo's strength is obviously not as good as Tian Ge's. He just lost so badly, and his mentality will also be hit. This kind of blow may be able to be withstood by veterans, but it is often fatal to newcomers."

"That's true." Shenchao looked at the game from the perspective of the former world runner-up: "EDG switching to the blue side should put more pressure on FNC than if they didn't switch - with the last place in the first game, we know that the way EDG beat FNC is not to rely on Tian Ge dragging four teammates along, but for every point to stand up and make their own voice."

"In this case, the blue team's advantages of banning and picking first, as well as minions and terrain, will be magnified."

While talking.

The large screen jumps to the Ban/Pick interface.

The process was exactly the same as what both sides discussed in the lounge. EDG banned three heroes step by step and selected Irelia on the first floor!

"Oh--"

"Grab the knife girl!"

Wawa dragged out a long tone: "It's FNC's turn to choose. On the first floor, take down the corresponding Sword Demon. What should we take on the second floor? Urgot?"

"It lights up for a second, and I'm considering whether to lock it." Miller said in a tone of watching a good show: "The last five seconds, the last two seconds, lock it or not? Okay, I really locked Urgot!" "I can only say..." Shen Chao calculated in his mind and tried to find a relatively positive word: "I can only say that Bwipo is a bit inexperienced."

[A little bit, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, right? ]

[The twin ponytails make me laugh to death]

[Steady, here comes the sword girl tutorial]

[Sword girl? Sword lady! ]

[Your friend, Dao Zuzong, is online]

[I suspect that Bibabu is not here to play in the game, but to learn top lane from Brother Tian]

【Waiting for a big moment of recognition】

[Ionia, high and everlasting! 】

The barrage was filled with joy.

"Ouch!"

"Use Urgot to fight against Tian Ge's Irelia?"

Zzitai put his whole face in front of the camera and made a very exaggerated expression: "The last person who changed heroes after being beaten by Tian Ge was Khan from LZ Team. Last year, the top laner of LCK was completely shattered after being beaten by Tian Ge. This year, he only dared to choose Mundo to play in the intercontinental competition and lost three out of four games. He couldn't even beat the champion A Guang with a zero win rate."

"Bwipo is at this level. He didn't know his name for two minutes in the last laning match. How dare he have the courage to switch heroes with Tian Ge?"

"I'm telling you, as long as Tian Ge can beat the opponent with one hero, he will definitely know how to play when he switches heroes. It doesn't matter if the hero is strong or not, or if he can counter or not. I've learned a lot from this over the past year!"

[What a profound experience]

【Er Zi’s Sorrow】

[Think about how Tian Ge didn’t show anything in Rank, but played at full strength in the Asian Games, and you will know how much Er Zi has endured]

[It turns out that Erzi is the man under Brother Tian’s crotch]

【? ? ? ? ? 】

【Something's wrong! 】

In the IG lounge, The shy looked at Irelia and Urgot being selected, and the corners of his mouth raised an exaggerated arc: "Hey, Irelia vs. Urgot!"

"How do you know it's Irelia who's going to beat Urgot?" Ning has a rebuttal personality: "Urgot is so strong, Irelia may not be able to beat him, it may be the mid-lane Irelia."

"Oh, No, No, No." The shy waved his hands repeatedly: "Other teams may choose Irelia as mid laner, but EDG will definitely choose Irelia as top laner."

"But the opponent's top laner is Urgot!" Ning emphasized: "Can Ye Tian beat Urgot with Irelia?"

"I always use Irelia to fight Urgot." The shy pointed at the screen: "Oh, look, Galio is out, I said it was top lane Irelia!"

Both sides got the key heroes, and the subsequent ban and selection were carried out quickly.

With the final adjustment phase over, the lineup was finalized.

Blue square: EDG
Red side: FNC
Top lane: Irelia vs. Urgot

Jungle: Gragas vs Xin Zhao
Mid: Galio vs Aatrox
AD: Xia vs EZ
Support: Tahm Kench vs. Braum
The mid-jungle combination of Galio + Gragas is slightly weaker than that of Aatrox + Xin Zhao, especially after level 6. Aatrox has [Destroy] to resurrect and Xin Zhao has [Crescent Sweep] to block, making Galio and Gragas even more difficult to fight against.

Xayah + Tambourine is stronger than EZ + Braum.

of course.

It is not easy to find an AD weaker than EZ.

The confrontation on the top lane is the focus with the greatest variables and the most attention.

In the first game, Ye Tian used Doran's Blade to attack Urgot and Irelia, who was unable to fight back. From a hero's perspective, it should be a stress-free thing for Urgot to fight Irelia.

But Bwipo has a different understanding.

The keystone rune chosen is Unsealed Codex, and the starting weapon is Corruption Potion. It is obviously inferior to the combination of Doran's Blade and Force Attack in a head-on confrontation.

"The Unsealed Secret Book is a common choice. Except for Brother Tian, ​​almost all Urgots have the Unsealed Secret Book."

"Compared to strong attack, it is more functional and has a higher tolerance for errors."

Wawa analyzed: "Bwipo imitated Tian Ge's ambush in the previous game and wanted to ambush Tian Ge as well, but Tian Ge couldn't step into the pit he dug himself, so Bwipo couldn't ambush him, so this wave was just a futile effort."

"Both junglers chose to play solo." Miller looked at the hero in the director's camera: "After entering the quarterfinals, we found that everyone is willing to let the jungler sacrifice some status and development speed in exchange for the advantage of the line. In other words, in the cognition of professional teams, all advantages must be supported by the heroes in the line. Without the advantage in the line, there is no chance of winning."

"Look at the win rate given by Colonel KI." Wawa's eyes moved down: "In Colonel KI's eyes, EDG's win rate is 52%, and FNC's win rate is 48%."

"5+2 is exactly equal to 7." Shen Chao suddenly said.

[The will of 7 is everywhere]

[Ancestor Seven: The Colonel showed up so quickly not because I didn’t beat him, but because I beat him so hard that he didn’t dare to return to the lounge.]

【7777777】

[FNC: How to play when the entire opposing team has BUFF? ]

The audience laughed at him.

As the lines of troops came into contact, EDG's middle and bottom lanes unsurprisingly took control of the line. Caps and O'Neal were not in a hurry to confront each other, and they played slowly with an attitude of development.

It’s different on the road.

Bwipo didn't ambush Ye Tian, ​​but he still fought fiercely. As soon as they met, he walked near the melee soldiers and forced Ye Tian back several steps.

Very powerful.

According to common sense, if Urgot stands near the minions, as long as Irelia uses Q, she will be caught by E [Contempt] and enter a long blank period. This is a nearly unsolvable laning method.

This is also the main reason why Bwipo was beaten by Ye Tian.

but.

Ye Tian’s understanding of top lane is much higher than Bwipo’s.

From a hero's perspective, there is no solution.

So, what about from the perspective of the military line?

After a few steps back and forth, Ye Tian took the initiative to walk into Urgot's attack range and took a normal attack with [Echoing Flames] attached, but because Urgot's passive [Echoing Flames] and the male gun's shotgun would be blocked by the soldiers, he did not deal full damage.

Moreover, when Urgot fired a bullet, it attracted the hatred of the blue team's melee soldiers. Ye Tian immediately attacked the soldiers, attracting the hatred of the red team's melee soldiers. Since the hatred value provided to the soldiers by the attack on his own hero is the highest, the blue team's soldiers will not switch fire until Urgot is out of range.

In this way, the red team's melee soldiers will follow the setting of attacking according to distance when the hatred value is the same, and follow the knife girl back!

The troops' line was disrupted.

Urgot's suppression of Irelia is naturally greatly reduced.

When Irelia enters combat, not only can she trigger Conqueror by normal attacks on heroes four seconds later, but she can also quickly stack up four layers of her passive [Ionian Fervor] at that time.

Just by pulling the troops in with a simple move, the offensive and defensive situation changed! (End of this chapter)
