Chapter 107 369 [Fateful Showdown]? Answers beyond the outline!
"EDG scored first in this crucial semi-final!" Remember shouted loudly: "One to zero, temporarily leading!"
"JDG lost to Red in the first game. It feels like their game rhythm has been studied," Miller worriedly analyzed for the other side: "But I can only say that EDG is more prepared!"
Ye Bo took off his headphones, opened the post-match data interface and took a look.
Viper, who was sitting next to him, patted his shoulder with a friendly and gentle tone: "So fierce, so fierce, that wave almost got me into trouble, luckily I had you!"
That crucial canyon group.
It seemed as if Yasuo only cast a wind wall, but in fact, it was indeed because of this that the opponent almost found a gap.
If it weren't for Sylas's magical counterattack, the best result would be that Bai would have to dodge several times with his flash, and even Monkey King might not be able to flash after successfully entering the field!
A mistake in a skill may be magnified infinitely on the field.
"It's okay. Playing Yasuo does have this kind of subconscious reaction."
"In fact, that actually lured the opponent and gave me the opportunity to perform that move. In one wave, I destroyed their base!"
Ye Bo was not only comforting, he was also very excited.
Because just that flash of inspiration allowed Ye Bo to directly master the fifth level proficiency of [The Monkey King].
"The Kidnapping of the Golden Stick Flower" even triggered the [Extreme Operation] high 2.5 ladder experience value reward!
That wave is not only about the difficulty of operation, but more importantly, it is about the limit and key to the situation and timing.
This instantly made Ye Bo's Sylas proficiency reach the forefront of the hero encyclopedia!
Of course, most of his hard training during this period was devoted to Silas, and he had already reached level six.
So the upgrade was not completed, it just jumped to the middle.
Ye Bo has been practicing Yasuo recently, but time is limited and it is impossible for him to focus all his energy on a choice that can only adapt to the lineup, so the training progress is not too fast, but he still has some small experiences.
So he knew that Viper's mistake was indeed a normal one, but the timing was critical.
But to Viper, this sounded like words of comfort with high emotional intelligence, and he felt even better.
The rhythm of the little dragon has slowed down in this version, and the ability of the regular bottom lane combination to exchange advantages after exerting laning pressure has been weakened. Therefore, the alien bottom lane like Yasuo who can exert force in advance is quite suitable for the current offensive rhythm used by EDG.
From Viper's recent hero selections, we can actually see that he has gradually accepted and even actively made a certain degree of "giving way" and BP sacrifice.
It means giving up the carry position!
You know, even when Scout was at his peak, Viper almost never played the sacrificial role.
After all, Viper is definitely not weaker than the opponent in terms of performance or strength, even if the opponent has more resources, so there is naturally no reason for sacrifice.
But it's different now.
From the beginning, everyone just thought that this newcomer had a good personality, then they discovered that he had outstanding skills, and then they were gradually "convinced" by the strength shown by the other party. All this has quietly changed.
Everyone just feels relaxed and happy with the current situation.
Mingkai and Maokai walked into the room, both with bright smiles on their faces: "Well done, Master Ye! Well done, brothers!"
"Keep up this performance, it feels like we'll be off duty in two hours!"
Meiko couldn't help but teased, "You're here to open the champagne again, eh, Director? I remember the last time you said that, we immediately rode on flying arrows."
Mingkai pretended not to hear the second half and walked straight to the middle single C: "That's different. It feels like Xiao Ye Bo can easily catch the toothpaste. It's all over when the middle single C is in place!"
"Indeed, indeed, it will be over when the mid laner becomes C~" Jiejie shook his head and joked, "Director, now I finally understand you back then. Um, I'll go get you an orange."
After being stared at with a death stare, Jie Jie quickly changed the subject, stood up, crossed the sofa and got an orange.
Then he came back and handed it to Ye Bo very naturally.
"Let's talk about the BP for the next game."
Maokai held up his notebook and said seriously, "We are on the blue side next time. It's our turn to ask questions. They probably won't be able to come up with a special lineup, but I think it will definitely change the way the game is played!"
"This is only a semi-final. Ideally, we should try not to reveal too many tactics and try to win as long as possible."
Obviously, JDG suffered a crushing defeat on the blue side in the first game, largely because of the BP game.
There was nothing wrong with their lineup selection, it was simply because too much information was exposed and they didn't expect the opponent to be able to come up with such a thing, which caught them by surprise.
Therefore, after EDG won the first game, there was no reason for them to rush to reveal more tactical reserves.
But JDG and Redmi are not fools. When they come to the red side in the second game, even if they don’t come up with a new lineup, at least they will make changes in the system and playing style.
How can you fall twice in the same place?
Ye Bo broke off a slice of orange and put it in his mouth: "If it is the same as our replay speculation, at least the first two games are controllable. And judging from the performance of the opponent in the last game, it feels like an 80% chance."
He was halfway through his speech when his expression suddenly twisted slightly.
He pretended nothing had happened and handed the orange in his hand to the factory manager behind him before continuing.
"Because the red team doesn't have enough ban slots, they don't really have many options."
From Ye Bo's personal experience, Toothpaste's laning ability does not seem to be top-notch, and his laning style is not very aggressive.
But what he didn't know was.
His name was appearing frequently in JDG's backstage at this time, and the BP of the second game had also been changed because of him.
The official live broadcast room is still analyzing the first game.
"I didn't expect Sylas to be so compatible with Yasuo. EDG has made improvements to this lineup, and YE's proficiency in Sylas is amazing!" Jide said.
"And it seems that from this perspective, it is unrealistic to choose a lineup with completely useless ultimates!"
"Perhaps after these few games, Silas' priority should be raised in the eyes of all teams."
Miller continued: "But to be honest, it depends on the individual players. Sylas has only become popular since the end of the regular season. The effects presented by each user are very different. I can only say that the upper limit of the hero's development is indeed very high."
Partner Doll seemed to be still unsatisfied: "Ah, yes, yes, yes, in addition to the havoc in Heaven driven by the chain, there was also the miracle blitz that Silas stole from Zoe before, which was really cool."
The director provides the output panel of the first game in the live broadcast room.
The shocking contrast between the two sides immediately attracted everyone's attention.
In the damage bar chart, the damage in the corresponding column of the middle and upper parts of both sides is particularly eye-catching!
Clockwork and Jace.
One is 6934 and the other is 3469!
The two of them together are exactly half of Silas!
As soon as the chart came out, the live broadcast room exploded.
[The ointment comes out! The dice comes out! ]
[It has nothing to do with Gao Gao. Gao Gao went to bed early yesterday.]
[MD, how much firepower did this broken plot help Gao÷ block? Otherwise, Master Ye will play Zoe and send you home to sleep with a hypnotic bubble! ]
[Toothpaste and Sanliujiu are both just trying to take advantage of the situation. They are terrible in laning. Without the help of the wild father, their true colors are exposed! I remember someone said before that they would wait for him to fight YE? I want to roar! ]
[Isn't it the jungler who caused the collapse of the mid and top teams in this game? They died wherever they went. Did they catch anyone? See! ]
[Hey, I told you, TES really lost on purpose. Otherwise, after the semi-finals, if they advance to the finals and get beaten 0-6 again, it would be so scary! ]
【Those who are coming back from 2-0 down, go to RNG's table! Don't worry, JDG can come back from 2-0 down again! 】
In the semi-finals, many people believed that EDG had good luck in drawing the team BLG, which was obviously the weakest among the top few teams.
But in this game, EDG's violent crushing performance undoubtedly made everyone take a new look at this team that began its transformation in the summer season!
The director then announced the MVP of the game.
with no doubt.
Ye Bo's new makeup photo taken before the playoffs is presented. He is standing sideways with his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed.
The comments were all filled with "That year I put my hands in my pockets"
"90% participation rate! This Silas is really terrifying!" I remember exclaiming in admiration.
"It can be seen that YE is extremely important to the team's rhythm. He is almost driving the entire team's rhythm! He also continued his excellent form into the semi-finals!"
"Toothpaste is at a disadvantage in the mid lane, and now he must carefully consider the next hero to choose."
Until the second game started, the JDG players who sat back in the player seats still had heavy expressions on their faces.
Although they also lost the first two games against TES.
But throughout the entire summer season, this was the first time they felt so powerless, and it was a big blow to everyone.
"You must keep your mind steady," Hongmi noticed that his teammates were in low spirits, and turned his head to cheer them up: "Think about how we got through the spring and summer seasons this year!"
"The last game was a special case. We fell for the BP trick. If we play this game normally and follow our tactical arrangement, our chances of winning will definitely not be low!"
After the emergency review of the game, Redmi has come up with a countermeasure.
Before long, both sides re-entered the recruitment room.
Pull up the BP panel!
“Come on, come on, brothers, come and cheer for Brother Bai!” Chu Jun from the second live broadcast room came back online.
"Master Ye was having a blast last time, so Brother Bai should have a go too. We can't let Master Ye perform alone!"
"EDG immediately banned Poppy! It seems like they want to take Monkey King. Maybe they want to continue playing Yasuo's system?"
Chu Jun looked at the first ban position on the opposite side and guessed.
"But using the same lineup consecutively is a taboo in the arena. The opponent will definitely be prepared." The first round of ban positions -
EDG: Poppy, Galio, Annie
JDG: Akali, Sylas, Monkey King
"EDG banned Annie and Galio as well, which shows that they still want to play the Yasuo system!"
"But in the end, JDG actually banned Monkey King themselves. Then Skateboard Shoes was released. This thing has a natural advantage when it is picked in the bottom lane!"
The first two moves of the red side were almost the default BP. One was the best of the best, and the other was what the other team had just played with great momentum. Both were very reasonable.
But the sudden change in formation and self-banning of Monkey King at the end was quite meaningful.
But this is exactly Redmi’s BP game.
The red side has to make trade-offs in BP. Hongmi knows that his bottom lane strength is not as good as the opponent's, and it is difficult to achieve results even if he invests resources. And releasing Skateboard Shoes will not lead to a natural collapse.
So he chose to use the disadvantage of the bottom lane to exchange for the confrontation between the mid and jungle.
In addition, by banning Monkey King, the Yasuo system can be weakened at the same time, which is killing two birds with one stone.
This was indeed a bit beyond EDG's expectations.
EDG's original plan was to ban the opponent's three positions, first choosing Monkey King, then Yasuo + a hard support with knock-up.
But BP is all about on-the-spot response.
"Then let's just use skateboard shoes and play the normal lineup."
The reason why Skateboard Shoes is a natural ban on the red side is because as long as the player's personal strength is not a problem and the laning phase is similar, it can be said that he has a natural advantage.
Not banning usually means that neither side is prepared to fight in the lower half of the zone.
"EDG took down Skateboard Shoes, and JDG got the Erlie combination again," Chu Jun said with a grin, "Aren't they afraid that Master Ye will pull out Yasuo? Saint Spear Brother might be able to do it too!"
"But Master Ye seems to have never played Yasuo."
In the last game, Yasuo has proven that he can counter the Erlie combination in team fights.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that the game is completely unplayable. It is played more because the lineup must be forced to start, and a forced start will be easily dealt with by Yasuo.
EDG has already grabbed the Spear of Vengeance, so no matter where Yasuo appears, it is an acceptable result for JDG - they are not planning to choose a strong lineup in this game anyway.
What Hongmi hopes to see most is Yasuo in the mid lane.
This would coincide with their tactical goal for this game.
"EDG picked Amumu and Wei. Wei is another unique skill of Kanpiange who uses stealing instead of banning!"
"Mumu is the support, so the bottom lane is still under great pressure. With Amumu and Wei, EDG still has a strong opening system and is not prepared to expose more tactics!"
The red team got Gnar as the third pick and entered the second round of BP.
EDG: Ruined King, Xin Zhao
JDG: LeBron James, Crocodile
Since the blue team had already released the jungler Wei, JDG's fourth player showed his true colors and directly revealed the core of this BP.
"Oh my gosh! Kindred!"
"Look at Brother Pian's hero pool. Can this thing be released in this version?"
"EDG probably didn't expect this. I remember Kindred really beat up Wei, and was very restrained against the forced opening system. JDG came prepared for this game!"
Kanavi has a deep hero pool, so as long as he chooses last, he will most likely be able to choose a hero that can counter the opponent's jungle.
One of the reasons for banning Monkey King is that Kant's Poppy was banned in the first round.
The high frequency displacement of Kindred's Q skill will make it difficult for Wei's Q skill to hit, and the group invincibility of her ultimate skill [Sheep's Breath] is a perfect counter to the strong opening system!
This hero has always been quite unpopular except for the jungle core version in S10.
There are only one or two "specialty players" in the entire LPL who are occasionally selected and used.
Kanavi doesn't have any special skills, but he is quite experienced with this kind of hero who is the core of the jungle, and he has used it in quite a few games.
The jungle creates a counter, which means that the mid laner must choose a hero with strong early-stage combat power to carry out a certain degree of protection for jungle invasions or small-scale battles.
However, there are only a few heroes left who are strong in the early stages.
Previously, if Ye Bo picked Leblanc in the first round, JDG would directly counterattack with Ashe to counter, because the opponent would most likely not be able to guess Kindred's position anyway.
This is the depth of the players' "Hero Pool", which can bring infinite variables to the BP game!
In this game, JDG is determined to play against the mid and jungle!
Hongmi's deep intention was revealed at this moment. At the cost of the bottom lane, combined with the red side's counter position and jungler's hero pool advantage, he grabbed the counter position of the mid and jungle.
From the first match, his evaluation of Ye Bo rose to a higher level.
He now deeply believes that he must hold down the center lane at all costs!
If the line is difficult to break directly, then do the same as the opponent in the previous game and take advantage of your disadvantage in the jungle to force the mid laner to come to confront you!
JDG's BP ability is highlighted.
but.
At this moment, Ye Bo was quickly reading the prompt box in front of him.
"Let's pick Jayce. This way we have both lane control above and below, and we should also have some defense in the jungle." Maokai first chose Jayce for Saint Spear.
"Master Ye, what do you want to take? If the opponent has a counter position, you may have to use a hero like Tsar to turtle for a while, but Jiejie, you have to be more careful in the early stage of the jungle."
"Ye Bo?"
Mao Kai called out to Ye Bo twice before he reacted.
"Let's take the one we were originally going to take!" Ye Bo responded affirmatively.
"I feel like that thing is very suitable for this lineup. It's a good counter to the opponent's Kindred. And we don't have to worry about being caught. We can break the formation!"
In fact, EDG prepared a rare hero for the mid lane in this game.
Wine barrel!
Gragas has been strengthened several times this year. Ye Bo had previously included it in his practice list. The mid-lane Gragas has also appeared in both LCK and LPL.
Although it is definitely still an unpopular choice, the hero's strength is not low at all.
Originally, this was just to match the choice of Yasuo - the original plan was for Toothpaste to choose a pure lane-clearing hero like Tsar and Taliyah, and EDG would choose a mid laner Gragas to roam and strengthen the attack on the bottom lane.
Of course.
There is another very important reason for choosing wine barrels.
[Ding! Triggering the "Fateful Duel" condition (369)! ]
[Obtained a temporary proficiency bonus for "Barrel"]
[You can choose: "Wine Barrel" to complete the challenge]
Ye Bo lamented how "timely" this fateful confrontation came.
But when combined with the existing heroes on the field, he suddenly felt it was extremely appropriate!
The rewards for [Fateful Duel] are quite generous, which can be seen from the experience of Scout and Uzi in the previous regular season, so unless the lineup is extremely incompatible, Ye Bo has no reason to let it go.
"Oh my! This might be the mid laner Gragas!" Chu Jun suddenly realized something before he finished speaking.
"What does Master Ye mean? Do you want to teach me how to pull my brother Bai!"
Hongmi's eyes trembled slightly.
Jayce mid? Gragas mid?
In the intelligence impression of Redmi.
No matter which of these two wavering ones is the mid laner, it is an option that Ye Bo has never chosen in front of the public.
"What should I buy?" Toothpaste asked. "Tialah can beat Gragas, but it will be hard to beat Jayce in the middle."
Hongmi knew very little about the barrel and thought about it for a while.
"It should be Gragas in the middle, Jayce in the middle doesn't matter, they're easy to catch, just take them."
"But Taliyah's early damage is very low, so it's hard for us to catch it. We have to take turns to invade the jungle area."
"OK, then I'll take the life." Toothpaste changed the rune choice to be safe.
JDG's original idea was to use a jungler like Ice Girl who was easy to cooperate with, and use the advantage of the jungle to siege the middle lane, but now it seems that Rock Bird seems to be the best solution.
Hero lock swap.
The lineups of both sides are confirmed.
《Blue side: EDG丨丨Red side: JDG》
[Top: Future Guardian vs Lost Fang]
[Jungle: Piltover Enforcer vs Everhunter Twins]
[Mid Single: Gragas vs Taliyah]
[Shooter: Spear of Vengeance vs. Crescent Moon’s Tranquility]
[Assist: Mummy of Death vs Alchemy Baron]
