Chapter 205 is all a poor imitation of YE!
Chapter 205 is all a poor imitation of YE!
It’s really boring to stay at home during the Spring Festival because it’s difficult to go out.
Just after the second day of the Chinese New Year, everyone set out to meet up with Brother Saint Spear, hoping that everyone would return to the base early to prepare for the battle and training.
In Ye Bo's words, "roll them to death"!
After Ye Bo raised this idea in the group, everyone quickly agreed.
The main reason why this V5 was formed is that everyone has a common belief.
Belief in victory.
Or rather desire!
There is no need to say much about the two new junglers.
Ye Bo’s sense of belief has always been the strongest. The “sun never sets” he said on the night of his victory already represented his thoughts.
Saint Spear Brother, who was originally feeling tired, was influenced by his roommate over the past year. He found his former self in the other's purest passion, so he wanted to make one last attempt this year to feel the highest height in the world.
Including the bottom lane duo who will give up everything to come. Obviously no one is more eager than them.
It's just that they have a desire that they have been pursuing for ten years.
One is the desire to fulfill the dreams of teammates.
We can see the clue from the fact that during Beryl's break, he would occasionally talk to Ye Bo about the game content!
of course.
Guangzhou is one of the regions with the most delicious food. We spent two days eating and shopping under the guidance of our tour guide, Brother Sheng.
"So touching. I swear, this tastes better than fried chicken!" Beryl said in an extremely exaggerated way, which he thought was the ultimate description.
"What can I do, Brother Hekui? I feel like I can't leave here any longer."
Everyone burst into laughter.
It is not difficult to see from Beryl's body changes that this guy is definitely a super foodie.
After coming to China and experiencing the numerous and dazzling cuisines here, and then comparing it to my hometown, it seems that the only way to describe it is "poor"!
Just for this reason.
Compared to Deft, who has many fond memories, Beryl actually integrated and got used to it faster.
I even have a vague feeling of "belonging".
As the opening day approaches.
All the major teams have also returned to training.
Due to the Chinese New Year tradition, the two major versions 13.2 and 13.3 will be updated together, which will directly lead to huge changes in the next game version.
The first are two large + medium reworked heroes, Dragon King and Annie.
The Dragon King has been completely reworked.
Annie has undergone a lot of mechanical enhancements, adding a "counter-injury" mechanism to the E skill's shield, greatly improving playability.
Secondly, several heroes that were very popular in this version were weakened one after another.
The strongest ones, Quesanti, Ryze, and Kassadin will definitely be the first to bear the brunt.
Behind them are the big head, the cat, the big tree, and the ice.
And the ones behind them are all big swords!
In fact, the cat will be remade in the second half of the year because its mechanism is indeed unhealthy——but even so, it will still be remade in advance!
The most core W {Adaptive Force} had its value cut in half!
I’ve never seen a hero being nerfed like this, it’s clear that they’re “not allowed to play”.
Galio's core skill Q turret also had its health greatly reduced, and the damage of his E skill was reduced, which is basically a clear hint that he is not allowed to take the support position.
Combined with the weakening of Ashe and the enhancement of her ADC play.
Obviously, the designers no longer want the bottom lane ecosystem to continue to be dominated by these two rogue lane-right heroes.
Version changes always cause a chain reaction, which affects the entire system.
Some heroes stepped down from the stage.
It will also mean the glorious appearance of some heroes.
It is even more likely to mean that the competition environment will be completely subverted!
In fact, every version change is like a test for all teams to start from scratch - some originally strong teams may be directly affected by a version they are not well adapted to.
The simplest example.
For example, after the three soft auxiliary kings, Cat, Big Head, and Ice,
The hard support that disappeared in the middle of last year's World Championship should be back in the game!
The return of hard support not only means a faster pace of battle.
At the same time, some teams that are good at this style of play or good at hard support will naturally be strengthened.
Therefore, with each version change, the team's strength may fluctuate or even experience huge "ups and downs", which is a normal thing.
————But the audience will definitely be surprised.
It’s easy to have the soul-searching question “Why was I so strong (bad) in the last version, why am I so bad (strong) again after coming back?”
But this is actually a very reasonable "test" in the competition system.
There are nearly ten version changes every season, and at least three major environmental disruptions, which essentially tests the comprehensive capabilities of each team.
This naturally includes the ability to adjust and learn.
On the other hand, if only one or two versions are played throughout the year, the gap in understanding of the versions among different companies will be infinitely narrowed - it will become a "brainless" game that is almost purely a test of muscle and condition.
The variables will become very small, and the outcome can be predicted by almost 95%, which of course makes it less interesting.
International competitions such as the S League and MSI also have such temporary changes in the environment.
Therefore, each month's version changes can be regarded as a "monthly exam".
The spring season is calculated by month: there is basically one test at {the beginning of the season}, two tests at {mid-season}, and three tests at {playoffs}.
If a team cannot adapt to the challenges of such a rapidly changing environment, it will naturally not be a truly strong team.
February 1, the ninth day of the first lunar month.
The LPL war has officially reignited!
The team that appeared in the opening match after the New Year was the Top Esports team, which made big news during the Spring Festival and was extremely popular.
Tencent Esports also has special care. When scheduling the games, it takes into account the fact that star teams may not be in good shape after holidays, so the post-holiday schedules are arranged with weaker opponents first.
This is understandable, after all, we have to consider the ratings.
TES's first opponent is LGD, a team that has been at the bottom of the table in recent years.
There was actually an interesting thing during this period.
Mr. Jack Ai, who loves live streaming, did another job during the Chinese New Year.
Facing the repeated questions and ridicules in the comments, he said directly and domineeringly: "Don't worry! Next, Top Esports will not lose a single game and will enter the playoffs!"
The barrage at that time was full of [Poor imitation of YE].
Even though the opponent in this match is not very strong, the audience is still looking forward to the match day - mainly it's fun to win or lose!
If you win, just say that there is a white crescent moon “playing” in front!
Lost
No one thought they would lose, not even the loser.
This lineup of Top Esports is definitely a real galaxy battleship. Except for the support Mark who is slightly inferior, the others are all veteran star players in their respective positions!
Is it a joke that they lost to the bottom team?
But I can only say that.
Topbo is Topbo, and its ancestors have a fine tradition.
Just when everyone has high hopes for him, there will definitely be an explosion!
"Jack didn't use his flash and was killed instantly!"
"Xiaotian's condition doesn't seem right. Xiaohu was killed by Haichao! It's over!"
"Congratulations to LGD! They defeated TES 2-0!"
"Top Esports probably hasn't recovered from the Chinese New Year."
Top Esports lost to a rotten team where the salary of all its players was not even a fraction of that of any of their players.
And they were beaten 2-0!
What’s even more outrageous is that in the second and even third games, Top Esports was beaten badly!
They faced TT and OMG, who were also ranked low, and still won 2-1!
Not losing a single game, but always losing.
This result is very expensive for a team. It is no exaggeration to say that the combined value of the 15 starting players of the three teams is not even half of their total.
It is absolutely a huge shame and joy!
The online public opinion that had been lingering before kept bombarding the internet for the second time, which finally made the scoundrels feel good.
[I thought the Spring Festival Gala was the end, but it turned out to be just the beginning! ]
[Is this, that V5's beating shattered his Dao heart? Guo Hao will cry and faint in the toilet now~]
[I said the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve was fake, what a crap first-time photo studio, it turns out the real show is here! Today is indeed the Spring Festival holiday! ]
[Unforgettable Tonight]
[I suddenly realized that the global BP may be the biggest boost for Top Esports! Now Dezi can only play one game, and it will be difficult for TES to speed through two games! ]
[February 2023, 2, sunny, Wednesday. In the just-concluded LPL Professional League Spring Regular Season, TES lost 13-1 to OMG. Mid-lane player Xiaohu achieved a good record of 2-0-8. This also marks the beginning of spring again across my country. Everyone must put on more clothes and keep warm.]
[Wrong! Spring has passed, summer has arrived, so how long will it take for me to be beaten by my husband? ]
The fans of Topsports, who have been tortured to the point of madness, feel that their mental state is extremely worrying and have started to do all kinds of things.
TES48 Art Troupe releases another hit song: "What I miss is dreaming together"!
There are also various other UP hosts who have fun participating in this battle of fun.
For example, Xu Hansan, the salty fish king of V5 Loyalty! Sincerity!, made a huge and extremely funny live video.
The background of the Three Kingdoms, inside the general’s tent.
Brother Breathing, who was holding his neck and feeling difficulty breathing, was standing by, wearing a symmetrical R-shaped imperial robe, discussing countermeasures with Tiger Commander.
“Never had such a bad start!”
"There is no more food in our army now! We can't even get enough food!"
"General Tiger, how can we win this battle?!"
The movable type printing techniques taken from the interviews with the contestants were used so vividly that it almost looked like an original soundtrack.
Scout Mark, who loves to chat about family matters, raised his hand inexplicably and said, "When I was six years old, I heard Aunt Liu next door say that there might be supplies at the back door of Weibo Village and Guodian Village. Why don't we go and grab them!?"
"Robber supplies? No way!" The fat Tiger General flew into a rage and hit his belly hard, making a popping sound.
"There is no fine salt in the army. The soldiers have not taken in salt for many days and have long lost the strength to fight!"
At this moment, the Heavenly Strategist standing beside him suddenly had an idea: "Hey! General Tiger, don't panic!"
"We have pigeons! Pigeons have a strong flavor, so we don't need much salt!"
A big-headed pigeon just happened to fly into the tent. Before it landed, a clean blue light flashed on its body. Then he found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes.
Various funny videos and music are frequently released, which brings a lot of fun!
Besides having fun, of course.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Top Esports has big problems. The previously mentioned version changes have had a very obvious impact on them, and it’s not just because of the coach.
But some people have also suggested.
Are these weak teams not actually that weak?
For example, OMG's mid laner Xiaonaiyou seems to be in a close match with Xiaohu, whose form has improved.
Some people can't help but wonder: "If Top Esports is so bad, then the quality of V5 should be questioned, or the strength of this year's region should be questioned?"
There are even Top Esports fans who are fantasizing: "This is actually the most promising year for LPL! Maybe it's because the strength of each team is very close, so the game is so close!"
Some people even joked: "The value of Little Cream is still rising!"
It wasn't until the second game that OMG finally faced V5.
There were a lot of pre-match hype.
What is the only mid-lane player who has never been killed by a single player?
As for Xiaonaiwen, who is an expert in Akali and Sylas, he is full of confidence, maybe because he just defeated Top Esports.
He actually took the initiative to release these two heroes in the BP end, grabbed Akali himself, and let Ye Bo get Sylas, which was equivalent to a double ban strategy in the first game.
then.
Once again, nothing happened.
Three minutes into the game, Akali, who was sweating profusely from being stretched, was killed!
"Little Cream was stunned by the show!!"
"Master Ye knows Akali too well! He knows which direction you are going to stretch as soon as the opponent moves his legs!"
"Solo kill! Another solo kill!"
"Every move of Akali seems to have been rehearsed in his mind! The difference is visible to the naked eye! This is the real King Akali!"
A performance that was almost like playing against a robot proved that OMG is indeed a weak team.
Topsports fans’ faces turned green with anger.
And Xiao Naiyou, who played against Ye Bo for the first time in his career, was beaten 0-9, which was even worse than the dizzy Xiaohu.
[Little cream? Lots of cream! The biggest shock wave of this century!!!]
[Like to choose Akali as the cup? Do you also want to imitate Master Ye? You, go sit at the same table with Niao Niao! ]
[I said that anyone who can question the value of V5 can only be judged as pure hard play. The total time of the four games is less than two hours. What else can this prove? ]
[Is this the Little Cream I've been waiting for so long? My opinion is that it's not as good as the Fish God next door]
V's second opponent after 5 years.
It is EDG, which has a deep bond with their team.
Tencent Esports obviously also took their schedule into consideration. Before the upcoming high-profile battle, they specifically arranged a "recovery schedule" similar to that of Top Esports.
In the spring season, EDG knew that their results would not be good - after all, only the jungler and support remained on the team, and several new players were recruited.
First of all, "running-in" is a big problem.
They are not alone in this regard.
WBG, JDG, TES, BLG, etc., which have also made major personnel adjustments, actually all have this problem.
This is also the reason why many teams may not have been able to show their "paper strength" as they should have in the spring season.
Speaking of which.
We have to mention V5 again.
In terms of running-in, V5 is faster than other teams as if they have a natural advantage.
In addition to the fact that the personalities and playing styles of the players on the team are not "dominant", both Saint Spear and Deft are jack-of-all-trades players who can naturally integrate into any team.
It is also due to the "compatibility" of the two commanders.
It can be said.
Rather than saying that it is the V5 team that is running in, it is more accurate to say that it is the two IDs, YE and Beryl, that are running in.
Although, they are obviously still in the process of getting used to each other.
But it is obviously much easier to get used to each other than other teams.
"Today's matchup between the old teams, EDG is still coached by Zzai Zhang, while the mid laner is replaced by the team's new mid laner Fisher!"
"It seems that the factory manager has already started teaching the new mid laner some tips."
Behind the contestants' seats.
Mingkai was leaning behind Fisher, giving him instructions with a serious expression.
"Remember don't fight him! Don't pretend with him! Don't go for those dangerous knives!"
"Just treat this game as a super stress-resistance training. As long as you can withstand his pressure, you can withstand everyone's pressure! You can be a starter this year!"
"Did you hear that, Li Jingtai?"
Fisher, who didn't know whether he heard it or not, just nodded: "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
Fisher has been practicing with EDG's second team for two and a half years.
The reason he met Ye Bo in the youth training camp was because they were the same age. He had never been able to play before, so he simply went to the training camp to gain experience.
I still remember when Ye Bo first arrived at the youth training camp, I heard others say that he was the "crown prince" of the EDG youth training camp.
But later on, the position of the crown prince "ascending the throne" seemed to have been snatched away by himself.
Ye Bo had never fought with him before, so he didn't know his opponent's strength.
So this game is very serious.
The same goes for the opponent's Fisher!
To be honest, he was quite unwilling.
Fisher was an absolute genius when he debuted. He was called "Xiao Xiaofei" and "Faker's successor" within T1. Otherwise, he would not have been bought back by EDG and raised as a treasure.
Just one photo will show his value!
Fisher at that time was the only core mid laner of T1's second team.
His top and jungle teammates are Zeus and Oner, who were promoted to the T1 team early last year.
After the support changed his name, he is now Delight, the hard support king of DK this year, and the AD also went to C9 in North America to be a substitute and kill all the teams.
It can definitely be said that there are stars scattered all over the sky. Only he is the only one guarding the water dispenser in EDG's second team!
Finally YE left this year.
He got the chance to compete with FOFO, so of course he wanted to perform well and prove himself!
"Fisher, the Tsar, fights so hard!" Wawa looked surprised.
"It's not easy. A new player is so bold right from the start. But his laning style seems a little familiar, right?"
Miller immediately agreed: "I feel the same way. His laning style is similar to YE's! They both have that fierceness of wanting to make a move. They are both rookie players from EDG!"
"Oh, I got hit by this flying star, so I have to return it. Hmm? Not going back?"
Fisher's playing style in this game was obviously the type that wanted to "show off". I don't know who influenced him.
But this style of play.
It's like walking on the edge of a knife, which is a huge test for the players.
"Fisher used his flash to dodge the flying star but he was too fast! Zoe used EQ to hide her hand, first used E to trick her and then used Q!"
"Zoe picked up the flash fragment and chased after it, and killed it with a super long-range flying star!"
The factory manager in the backstage covered his forehead with his hands, unable to bear to watch.
He knew the tragedy was about to begin.
Jiejie and Meiko also wanted to beat up their old teammates.
But it was obvious that both of them were not in good condition, especially Meiko, which was a disaster. Titan directly performed a wave of {hooking against the wall with one centimeter close to the face}!
Xun went around and counterattacked 2v3, directly disrupting EDG's rhythm.
But Fisher seemed to only care about eating and not fighting. After coming online, he was still actively fighting with Zoe. Then he was killed by a single person!
It's like chewing Xuanmai and you can't stop!
When the final V5 army advanced.
The Tsar hid on the flank, and once again used an EQ to float forward and try to flash back. But this time he suddenly "stood upright" in place!
Behind the V5 members, a sand tower was slowly erected.
{When the Tsar passively builds a defense tower, it cannot be canceled, nor can it move in any way, which is equivalent to imprisoning itself for one second}
"what??"
"What is Fisher doing?!"
"Flash and build a tower! The Tsar has put himself in the crowd!"
"Fisher is under so much pressure from Master Ye. What kind of operation is this? Haha."
The commentary desk couldn't hold back.
After Tsar's extremely show-like operation that successfully led to the annihilation of his own team, EDG seemed to be about to taste the pain of being speed-passed.
Fortunately, Ye Bo was still thinking about his brothers and did not let the score and time become too embarrassing.
However, this also led to Fisher's more eye-popping operations.
[Fish God? Fish out! Another shock wave! ]
[Is Fish God really going to let T1 appear on the 315 Gala? The pure T1 version of Yangcheng Lake hairy crab! ]
[This kid must be returned to LCK! ]
[Master, what do you do? ————《First-class Construction Engineer》! ]
[Actually, I am fine without Master Ye. Don’t bring such an outrageous person here. Forget it, I’m going to show my cards, Master Ye! How can I live without you! Master Ye!! Will we meet again? Will we meet again, right? Woohoo TT]
[I can only tell you, don't underestimate EDG, their backstage reserves are so terrifying, now there are F**er, Thes**, V**P**er in the backstage, they are definitely all-star level reserves! ]
[I like the operation, you are worthy! Here comes another poor imitation of YE! 】
[Damn, I suddenly realized that the LPL mid laners are all learning Master Ye’s play style recently? I just saw a few analysis UPs yesterday, saying that Xiaohu and Zuoshou also seem to be learning it]
