Chapter 218 The feeling of oppression from the 6th throne!
Chapter 218 The feeling of oppression from the six thrones!
The s8 preseason is the most exciting one for everyone. League of Legends has really made major changes because the talents and runes have been updated again.
All the runes that everyone had accumulated for a long time turned into essence.
To be honest, this also caused complaints and mourning from a number of Alliance players.
After all, so much time and energy have been spent, and it is gone just like that. Moreover, blue essence is only used to buy heroes. Many people already have full heroes. In this case, this thing becomes very useless.
But the version change is like this...
Either don’t play or you have to adapt. Professional players don’t have much choice but to adapt as much as possible!
If you can't adapt, you will be eliminated.
There is also a very interesting talent, Kleptomancy!
The talent is also very simple. The normal attack after the skill can trigger a steal. The extracted item can be anything in the game, even the blue bottle that has been deleted. Of course, the most important thing is to steal the purse!
Forty-five to one hundred dollars depends entirely on luck.
Of course, whether you can steal something depends on luck. If you are unlucky, it may not be triggered at all in a game.
There are a few heroes that are very suitable for this talent.
Ezreal, Viktor and Lucian.
Especially for the hero Ezreal, his development is abnormal after choosing this talent.
The six-minute three-phase force is no joke.
You have to know that this was without getting any kills.
This is enough to prove how abnormal this talent is.
The bottom lane, which was once disliked by everyone, has now become a popular position in the ranking.
Everyone wants to experience how terrifying a Kleptomancy Ez is.
It doesn’t matter whether you win or not, the main thing is that everyone wants to try their luck.
Gambling on luck is still very interesting.
Naturally, Ezreal was nerfed a lot, and as compensation, the damage of its W skill was increased.
I can only say that the treatment is indeed at the level of a son. The overall difference seems to be not that big. After all, ez's w skill can consume through minions, which is very useful in the laning stage.
The Kleptocracy game has also undergone some adjustments.
The stealing probability is not that abnormal anymore, and it won't be possible to make a three-phase attack with only five or six points.
Other talents were also adjusted. The first was Fortitude. This talent was a bit too abnormal, and the damage bonus when in low health state was too exaggerated.
There were many cases of low health players killing each other.
Naturally, you have to cut it down so that the damage bonus is not so scary.
But the talent of perseverance is still very popular and is basically a must.
Then there is Aftershock. The tank heroes in this version are already abnormal. After all, Cho'Z, Shen, Sejuani and Galio are still on the list. Once the talent Aftershock is triggered by control, it cannot be handled in a short time. It is normal to be weakened.
Of course, where there are weakenings, there are strengthenings. The two talents of Guardian and Glacial Conquest have been strengthened.
These two are basically used as auxiliary, further enhancing the auxiliary effect.
The biggest impact is the removal of vision equipment, the Stone of Insight!
The removal of this item means that Lee Sin has been greatly weakened.
Because in this version you can only bring two true eyes, and it costs seventy-five dollars to touch a eye.
It really is just taking economy as the only consideration.
However, the support was not affected too much. It was not so complicated and only one piece of equipment was needed to place a ward.
The purpose is to give supports more equipment options and enhance their output or tankiness in team battles.
Then the popular hero Zoe also had some cuts.
But this does not affect Zoe's position in the middle lane at all.
She is still the most popular mid laner in the current version.
All the mid laners in the league are practicing this hero.
Not training Zoe is tantamount to committing a crime and dragging the team down.
Li Yi also uses it a lot here.
However, there is a team that does not regard Zoe as the main mid-lane core.
That is the RNG team. First of all, Xiaohu is not good at playing Zoe.
Secondly, coach Heart wants to focus on the bottom lane, especially in the global finals, GT came up with a mid laner Vayne and a jungler Zac.
It doesn’t mean letting Xiaohu play mid lane Vayne.
But it’s Zac’s equipment in the game... Banner of Command!
The magic immunity attribute that this piece of equipment adds to the soldiers is too abnormal.
To change your thinking, the mid laner can completely act as a support and then buy this equipment.
It would be more appropriate to add some tankiness.
So I want to develop a new tactical system.
Now I have some ideas and thoughts.
If Galio can do this, then can we use heroes other than Galio?
They hid their skills and did not play any training matches with other teams.
If it was any other team, everyone would be quite surprised, but if it was RNG, there would be nothing wrong with it.
I've always liked hiding things.
With the changes in the version, the content is richer and it is definitely more interesting, and of course the competitiveness is also maximized.
……
In recent times, all the major teams in the League of Legends have been busy like clockwork machines.
After all, in the world of e-sports, the iron rule has always been that each version has its own god, and Riot's changes to the game content have undoubtedly cast a mysterious veil full of unknowns and suspense over the new season.
At the same time, with the launch of several limited edition skins for the Year of the Dog with Chinese characteristics, the unique flavor of the 2018 season has become increasingly stronger.
At noon on January 18, members of the GT team had just finished lunch and immediately set off in a team. Their destination was the Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center in Shanghai.
The opening match kicks off at five o'clock in the afternoon.
However, the GT team does not need to play the opening game this time. Their main purpose of going there is to make an appearance as a representative, and the most important thing is to watch the official promotional video.
After all, as the champion of the S7 World Finals, the official arrangement is EDG and BLG, the two Western teams.
Two more teams were added, and the size of the LPL region expanded from the original to fourteen teams.
It has been named the East and West, but the overall competition system still uses the same system as last year.
The seven teams in the East are: GT, IG, RW, RNG, JDG, SNG, and LGD.
The Western teams are: WE, EDG, Snake, BLG, FPX, OMG, and VG.
It is hard to say whether there is a problem with this grouping, because there are always e-commerce wars and JD.com and Suning have always been in the same group.
The second match was between JD.com and Suning in the East, which marked the beginning of another e-commerce war. It was hard not to suspect that these two platforms did not provide additional sponsorship to the official.
Otherwise, why would they be given special prime time to perform?
After all, these two teams have no achievements other than being rich.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, GT finally finished the official activities arranged by the team. It was really tiring.
The number of fans I have to deal with is at least 500, if not a thousand.
Li Yi in particular was surrounded by a bunch of people, and her makeup was ruined.
But to be honest, she is still quite good. Although her makeup is smudged, there is still a kind of broken beauty.
It makes fans crazy.
I don’t know how many male and female hooligans touched me.
Fortunately, I managed to protect my sensitive parts.
Therefore, the contestants still need to re-install their gear when they return to the backstage.
The time quietly approached five o'clock, the sky gradually darkened, the cold became more intense, and the audience under the stage could clearly see the white breath they exhaled.
At this moment, Yu Shuang, wearing an elegant dress, stood tall on the stage. Her fair face looked particularly attractive under the stage lights. She slowly raised the microphone in her hand, took a deep breath, and then announced loudly in a clear, loud and passionate voice:
"After a long and unpredictable offseason, we are delighted to see that all the major teams have made careful preparations and adjustments during the offseason. They have completely changed their appearance, from personnel deployment to tactical layout, and have put together a richer and more potential lineup."
"Now, the horn of the new season has sounded, and the 14 heroic teams of the LPL are about to embark on a journey to face new challenges. The sweat they shed on the training ground and the heated discussions in the tactical room will all be tested on the battlefield in the future."
"Let us bear witness to their passionate efforts on the field with enthusiasm and expectation, and look forward to them creating one eye-catching and glorious moment after another!"
Yu Shuang's words were so powerful that they echoed in the venue for a long time. Then, she raised her voice again and shouted:
"Now, I am extremely honored and excited to announce that the 2018 LPL Spring Season has officially begun!"
As soon as the words fell, cannons rang out all around the stage, and colorful fireworks shot into the air like meteors, blooming with dazzling brilliance.
Led by some enthusiastic fans at the scene, the originally quiet audience seats suddenly erupted into thunderous applause. The applause was intertwined with cheers and shouts, like surging waves, one after another, without stopping for a long time.
The scene suddenly changed and instantly entered the exciting spring season promotional video.
On the big screen, lights flickered, and star contestants appeared one after another like shining stars.
The passionate music sounded instantly, and the strong rhythm seemed like the beating of war drums, leading people towards the battlefield of the new season with full expectations.
The first person that catches the eye is Uzi, with his signature confident smile on his face and his eyes revealing his infinite desire for the new season and his determination to win.
Immediately afterwards, the calm and resolute figure of the factory director appeared. His face was serious, and his eyes revealed the calmness and majesty of a veteran.
Xiye also appeared soon after, with a focused expression and a slightly furrowed brow.
Representatives from various teams came on stage one after another. Some of them looked excited, some were calm and steady, and some were full of fighting spirit. Although each person's expression was different, they all walked forward with firm steps, as if charging towards the glory of the new season.
However, the sharp-eyed audience was surprised to find that none of the members of the GT team showed up.
At this moment, Uzi gave the factory manager a meaningful smile, and there seemed to be a hint of challenge in that smile.
Then he quickly raised his hand with a clean and neat movement, which looked very much like the heroic posture of Vayne when attacking, as if he was demonstrating to the factory manager.
Seeing this, the factory director's expression became even more serious, and the slightly wrinkled blue veins on his forehead showed that he was feeling tremendous pressure at the moment. A trace of imperceptible tension flashed in his eyes, but was quickly replaced by determination.
"Hehehe..." Suddenly, a sneer from imp came from the side. The corners of his mouth rose slightly with a hint of disdain, and he directly walked past Uzi and Zzitai.
There was a sharp light in his narrow eyes, as if he had already locked on his target on the battlefield of this new season.
As imp's perspective continued to move forward, people saw six members of the GT team standing in the center of the stage in the distance.
Their figures were upright and resolute, but strangely, all six of them were only shown from their backs, giving people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.
Behind them, the Topsports logo was clearly visible, and it was particularly eye-catching under the light.
At this moment, Li Yi from the GT team suddenly turned his head back. A look of confidence and contempt appeared on his handsome face, and he glanced coldly at the group of people chasing him.
"Xiu Shen is so handsome!" Suddenly, a fan shouted excitedly. The surrounding fans were completely excited by this scene, and they couldn't help but dance to the rhythm of the music.
But this is just the beginning!
The screen suddenly turned black, and the entire venue was instantly plunged into darkness, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Suddenly, a bright and dazzling light appeared in the center, like a ray of dawn in the darkness, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Under the illumination of this light, six extremely gorgeous thrones slowly appeared, shining with brilliant light, as if they were holy objects from a mysterious world.
One can vaguely see that there is a person sitting on each throne, and each of the six people has unique movements and expressions.
As for the two people in the middle, although they are only vague outlines, one can still tell that they are theshy and Xiushen.
They leaned sideways, supporting their heads with their fists. They looked lazy, but somehow they exuded an aura of confidence that could not be ignored.
He is like a cheetah. Even in a lazy posture, one can feel his powerful strength and dominance hidden in his bones.
At this moment, flashes of lightning lit up for a moment, like a sharp blade cutting through the night sky, tearing the darkness apart in an instant.
In this brief and dazzling light, all the audience present could clearly see the six people on the throne.
From left to right are Lin Weixiang, Liu Qingsong, Cheng Lu, Xiu Shen, Wu Shuang, and Jin Gong.
This is also the final ending scene of the promotional video.
At this moment, the sense of oppression is at its peak!
Everyone was shocked and speechless.
I never thought that LPL could produce such a high-quality promotional video!
"Fuck!"
"So handsome!"
All the audiences at the scene were excited. Although there was no GT in today's opening game, the last twenty seconds of this two-minute promotional video were completely worth the price of the ticket!
As expected, as long as you can win the global finals championship, your appearance will definitely not be bad. Isn't this much cooler than running back and forth?
GT has also established a true dynasty in the LPL! There is nothing wrong with the promotional video of sitting on the throne.
