Chapter 255 Champion! champion!
When the game came to the second game, IG immediately began to change tactics.
They also discovered that blindly trying to force a team-up with EDG was tantamount to wishful thinking.
EDG's laning intensity is equally fierce in the early and mid-term, and they have also discovered the weakness of their bottom lane assists. The removal of three assists in the first round of the last game is naked proof.
It completely destroyed Baolan’s hero pool!
In the past, when IG played other teams, this situation basically never happened.
Who dares to ignore IG's top, middle and jungle?
EDG: I dare!
And they did achieve the desired tactical effect, quickly taking away IG in the first place.
In every team battle, IG always takes on the inferior team. As a result, the more disadvantaged it is, the more urgent it is, and the more urgent it is, the more it loses!
So this time, Jin Jingzhu immediately began to change his formation and began to shift the focus of tactics to the lower half.
Try to select a version of the hero that has the initiative in the lane for the middle and upper lanes, and then tactically protect the bottom lane.
IG can't play four-guarantee-one, but they can get the line rights and perform four-guarantee-two like EDG.
For Jin Jingzhu, the right to be listed in the middle is crucial!
Because only in this way, the bottom lane will not be targeted all the time.
The bottom lane team is Kai'sa Gabulon.
"Yes... once this knife girl gets hold of it, Jace will have no choice but to evade it."
In the second round, EDG also began to switch tactics, placing the core rhythm point on the midfielder.
Colonel Guan saw this.
So, why did Xu Yuan choose Kasha?
Soon, Jin Jingzhu knew.
As the game is about to start, IG faces the first problem.
"The initiative on the court has completely rested with EDG."
What if Lee Sang Hyuk goes there?
There's no rule that says you can't change lanes in the middle.
Akali and Dao Mei, who is the mid laner?
Uzi already likes taking Kai'Sa very much.
But RNG in the knockout stage doesn't dare to take Kai'Sa because the disadvantages are too obvious.
However, for kkoma, his thoughts were thoroughly understood.
If you play the top laner Dao Girl first, there will basically be no top laner Jace.
Many teams just drag Kai'Sa out, and dragging usually doesn't have any good results.
But if Jayce can face off against Akali, at least he won't have any pressure against a hero like Akali who is not very strong in the lane.
Your sword girl is the mid laner, so I, Jace, will play.
IG still took out Jace this time.
So I gave Jace to Rookie.
As the game started, Jin Jingzhu did not relax.
Because even though Jess couldn't swing, he was still strong online.
They prefer Dao Mei to be the top laner and Akali to be the mid laner.
So they have to figure it out!
Top lane sword demon
Wild rock sparrow
Mid laner Jayce
Bottom lane group EZ Gatam
Single sword girl
I directly took out the midfielder with Nightmare and Akali.
This also resulted in Kai'Sa's combat effectiveness being very weak in the early stage. Before the three-piece set, she only had some combat effectiveness when she first released the Sheep Knife, and the rest of the time she was like a waste.
Smeb, who was on the road, chose Dao Girl, which cut off IG's possibility of choosing Jess.
Lee Sang Hyuk has been practicing Akali for so long just for this one.
The current version places great emphasis on the ability to take over team battles in the early and mid-term, and Kai'Sa generally has the ability to take over team battles only when the endless three-piece set of Sheep Blade Hurricane is formed.
Take a little risk though.
Regarding EDG's choice of Kai'Sa in the bottom lane, many commentators actually think it is not a good choice.
Your sword girl is the top laner, so I, Jace, will go in the middle.
The lineups of both sides are as follows:
Red Square EDG:
jungle nightmare
Mid laner Akali
Regardless of the version, the revised Sword Girl is Jace's biological mother. As long as she doesn't die before level 6, she can kill Jace at level 6 no matter how poorly developed she is.
The reason is simple, because the sword girl beating Jace is no different from the mother beating her son.
"It's really uncomfortable to play against EDG. IG used to sway others, but the problem is that the version hero EDG can also play. A sword girl makes IG very passive."
Because even though Akali is really managed by mid laner Lee Sang Hyuk, playing mid lane does not mean that she cannot swing.
The reason is simple: Kai'Sa's performance in the knockout stage was really poor!
Blue Square IG:
Because even if IG knew where Dao Mei was going, it would only be less disadvantaged.
Theshy entered the game and immediately controlled the Sword Demon to rush up the road. He had to find every way to know who was standing on the opposite road.
In the previous game, five people at level 1 were squatting in the bottom lane, but Xu Yuan was so steady.
This time IG also gave up such behavior.
When he reached the triangular grass on the upper road, he happened to see the knife girl entering the grass.
"Their top laner is Irelia."
Theshy spoke immediately.
"Then I'll be in the middle, Theshy, you beat the knife girl."
Rookie nodded.
"it is good!"
Theshy agreed and waited for the laning to begin.
In order to prevent the single sword girl on the opposite side from suddenly returning to the city, let Akali come up, and then let the sword girl TP hit.
Theshy even inserted his vision into the grass.
However, this EDG really doesn't intend to force the sword girl to fight against the opposite Jace.
Because it is not necessary.
IG has already been done this once by EDG during the summer finals. IG is definitely very wary this time, as it is not that easy to follow a routine.
Xu Yuan manipulated Kai'Sa to have a good defensive vision and chose to push the line.
EZ's early fighting ability is not bad, but the biggest problem of EZ is that it has no ability to push the lane.
Before equipment like Greedy Hydra came out, there was almost no Aoe.
Is there any hero who can be flexible, do damage and have AOE?
That’s too perverted——
Oh, it seems like there really is a strong wind version of Aphelios.
That's fine.
So even though Kai'Sa's lane is weak right now, with Braum's protection, EZ doesn't dare to E-face at will. Xu Yuan only needs to push the lane and then retreat, that's enough.
He didn't choose to push the lane to get the lane rights.
Because there is no way you can get this thing with this one.
Why? Because of Rockbird and Jace!
There is definitely no line right in the middle in the early stage. In this case, Jess has the initiative.
Xu Yuan judged that Rookie was likely to come.
It's not even just Rookie, maybe he chooses four-for-two like them.
So he chose to push the line and then retreat.
Even if the Ashui line causes him to lose some soldiers, he will never take a step forward.
Pushing the lane is not to gain an advantage, but to prevent others from jumping over the tower.
Some people may want to say: Can't you just control the line there?
Uncontrollable.
When someone comes to the jungle, you have to run back no matter what, but the lane will still be pushed forward.
What if the other side cuts off the way back then...
Not only can't he run away, but all the threads are gone.
On the contrary, retreat after pushing the line.
Even though there is a dilemma of getting stuck, the line is not that easy to control no matter how hard Ah Shui gets stuck.
Xu Yuan can completely wait for the jungler to come over and help him deal with this line.
This is much safer.
It's not that Xu Yuan is cautious, it's because IG really does play like this sometimes.
He is not a person who likes to show off. If he has teammates, why not call them to help?
So if you don’t have any teammates and are stuck, but if you have teammates, you still get stuck. What are your teammates doing?
The early stage of the game was relatively stable, and IG did not act rashly.
It's not that the IG has been modified, it's that the EDG was used to hurt them.
However, this calmness did not last long.
Four minutes into the game, King Ning cooperated with Rookie to attack Lee Sang Hyuk.
The timing of this wave was pretty good, but Lee Sang Hyuk was too calm and just dodged.
Preserved his status.
He had no intention of using the Xia Formation to evade, because it was useless.
The scan that King Ning brought with him when he went out had been discovered by EDG's field of view in the bottom lane.
If it is protruded by Yanque Rock, it will be great fun.
Six and a half minutes into the game, Xiaotian's nightmare was turned on for the first time.
His target is Rookie!
Just like IG chose to catch it for the first time, Xiaotian's choice was the same.
Akali needs help in the early stage, after all, the lane is too weak.
This time, Rookie's flash was also played, and they were evenly matched.
But at this time, the fight has already started on the road.
Smeb, who got the Sword Girl, and Theshy, who got the Sword Demon, are both confident.
With two equally confident top laners, the replacement is naturally quite radical.
But the difference is that Prince Ning will come!
So as soon as Smeb finished exchanging blood with Theshy, he saw King Ning appearing on the top lane.
Smeb:…
Does this person B want to train me again?
However, he was not panicked.
With the current level 6 strength of Dao Mei, it is not a dream to beat two towers with one tower!
"Really, can it be crossed?"
Theshy has doubts about this.
Because if he thought about it from his perspective, if he were this knife girl, he would definitely be able to operate it.
However, Prince Ning felt that this was an opportunity.
"If we wait a little longer, we won't have a chance. Don't worry, I'll leave when I see the opponent's mid laner TP. No matter what, I have to lie to him!"
He spoke confidently.
Theshy felt relieved and nodded.
Then Tandu was manipulated.
Sword Girl's ultimate move still has a disarming effect.
Faker was very reassured about Smeb. When he said he didn't need T, he really didn't.
Although Smeb was still rushed to death, he also replaced IG's Ueno under the tower.
Theshy:……
It doesn’t feel like it’s very profitable. Smeb still has T, so he won’t lose much in this wave of lines.
No, not so much that it’s not very profitable…
Isn't this Xiba's blood loss? !
Ten minutes into the game, King Ning chose to attack the vanguard.
At this time, Ah Shui and Xu Yuan are almost in development, and they have the initiative in the bottom lane.
After noticing that King Ning was taking the lead, Ah Shui immediately spoke.
"We have the right to go downstairs, do we need to go there?"
"Not urgent."
Rookie shook his head directly,
"If the other side comes, and you come again, he won't move and you won't move."
Ah Shui nodded to make it clear.
"I can fight, I have R, I don't need to use the bottom lane."
Smeb also spoke in the EDG voice.
Xu Yuan said,
"You can fight if you can, but this is also an opportunity."
"In the vanguard pit, we pull the opponent, and we push the lane as much as possible in the middle to see if we can threaten IG's first tower in the middle."
Xu Yuan didn't care if he continued to develop peacefully with Ah Shui in the bottom lane.
But now is an opportunity.
If the team battle takes away IG's middle tower, it will be a huge profit.
However, Lee Sang Hyuk feels that the success rate is not high.
Although IG has no operations, it is not stupid either.
Sure enough, IG responded very quickly to EDG's actions.
The team battle started suddenly by accident, and then the mid-top players on both sides began to rush towards the opposite AD.
That's what this version of AD is for: attracting firepower.
Xu Yuan and Ah Shui both surrendered and barely escaped with their lives.
Support isn't so lucky.
The two sides played one for one, EDG was in better shape in the middle and top, and chose to take the vanguard.
Prince Ning failed to punish him and had no choice but to let him go.
The first wave of team battles was very rational. Although IG didn't make much money, it didn't lose either.
As long as the vanguard can be defended without losing the tower, IG can accept it.
However, EDG played too smart.
They know that no matter which lane they place their vanguard on, they will be defended by IG. So Xiaotian had a bad day.
He released the vanguard in the top lane, and when IG's attention was drawn to the top half, he asked Smeb to directly hand over TP to the bottom lane.
Akali, who cooperated with Li Sang Hyuk, suddenly launched a wave of four packs of two!
By the time IG reacted, Vanguard was already approaching the top lane, and even if Rookie chose T to go to the bottom lane, he could not save IG's bottom lane team.
At this moment, Lee Sang Hyuk handed over TP again and entered the top lane. Cooperate with the vanguard to push IG's top tower.
This set of operations directly confused IG.
Four point putt?
Four-two point push!
The basis for executing this tactic is that there is no Tapi at this time, and the vanguard will not suffer any loss even if there is no one nearby.
Xiaotian defended the vanguard and hit the tower, but Theshy had nothing to do.
"How come IG is at a disadvantage when we are just playing around?"
Miller couldn't help but speak.
Is there anything wrong with IG's performance? Not really. Except for the slightly reckless tower jump on the road, the basic team battles were evenly matched with EDG.
At least in team battles, IG is indeed the first opponent where EDG cannot have an advantage every time.
However, although there are no disadvantages in laning and team battles, IG's operations are also visibly lagging behind EDG.
Faced with EDG's unrestrained operation, IG, which was obviously playing well, was still at a disadvantage.
"This is what I said at the beginning, IG is strong, but EDG is stronger!"
"Because EDG is strong in all aspects, their operations are completely ahead of IG!"
Nakabuki explained, Maomao spoke excitedly.
She was very happy at this moment because her judgment was right.
"Why does IG act like it has no brain?"
"Is it possible that EDG's operations are too good? Who would have thought of this!"
"No, why are you at a disadvantage again? Come on IG!"
"EDG come on!"
The LPL audience was also stunned and cheered for their favorite team.
"This is too strong...EDG!!!"
"Even IG couldn't take any advantage. I suddenly understood why KT couldn't beat EDG."
Now I understand.
It's so difficult for teams as strong as EDG and IG to win.
It seems normal that KT can’t beat it?
They were suddenly relieved.
Although there are some gaps that I don’t want to admit, but the facts are in front of me, there is nothing wrong with that.
Time passes bit by bit.
EDG and IG are still in fierce collision. However, what makes IG fans sad is that IG failed to win every time.
Although the loss was not much, it accumulated bit by bit and the economic gap also accumulated to more than 3,000.
Is the financial difference of three thousand big? In fact, the time of about twenty minutes is not too long, at least it is not completely impossible to fight.
However, EDG's teamfight ability makes people feel very helpless.
They basically never lost money and made money every time they fought in a team fight!
No matter how little you earn, it is still a profit.
The worst part is that Kai'Sa is really stable.
After that wave of four packs and two packs, Xu Yuan had already taken back the initiative in the bottom lane.
Although it can't be said to be a laning kill, the development is gradually starting to lead.
This is not good news for IG.
Kai'Sa is weak, but that was before the three-piece set.
Now that Ka'Sa's weakest period has passed, Xu Yuan is now in a two-piece suit.
By the time she got the three-piece suit, Kasha had completed her initial transformation.
Now that Kai'Sa wants to dominate team fights, the three-piece set is not enough and she needs four pieces.
But at least the three-piece suit is not weaker than other ADs?
Moreover, this IG's bottom lane is EZ, which gives Xu Yuan more room to play in a team fight.
EZ is strong in pulling, but the lineups on both sides are basically in the face.
In this case, it will be difficult to pull.
IG can't stand it anymore.
They wanted to open up the situation, so they once again focused on the sword girl with a single belt.
Although Dao Mei is relatively fat at this time, because Smeb's outfit is very aggressive, she chose the three phases of ruination.
In terms of frankness, it is not very fleshy.
If you insist on catching it, you can still catch it to death.
But IG was afraid that when they were catching Smeb, EDG would directly open the baron.
Now Kai'Sa and Nightmare are not slow at all in fighting dragons.
So we could only send out the middle and upper two people to catch him.
Because in this case, at least there will be TP in the middle and top, and if EDG opens the dragon on the front, they can quickly support the front.
However, IG’s thoughts were completely guessed by Lee Sang Hyuk.
"They will definitely capture Smeb. You try to stop them as much as possible. As soon as we see the opponent's mid-top appear in the bottom lane, we will move immediately!"
"As long as you entangle them, this dragon will be ours."
Lee Sang Hyuk spoke calmly, Smeb nodded slightly in agreement, and started to kill in the bottom lane.
I'm not alive anymore, brothers!
Sure enough, IG's midfielder chose to take action.
The moment they saw them in the field of vision, EDG directly chose to open the dragon!
"EDG is attacking the dragon! IG's mid and top players must end their entanglement with Smeb as soon as possible. EDG is attacking the dragon very quickly!"
Miller clenched his fists.
The most critical wave of this wave may be this one.
Rookie and Theshy are not particularly impatient. After all, TP is very important. What if they don't fight again?
But to say there is no rush at all is impossible.
They could only take action forcefully, hoping to deal with this knife girl as soon as possible.
However, Smeb at this moment... is actually very comfortable.
Like to catch?
When it comes to one versus two, Smeb thinks the difficulty is not low.
But it’s not difficult to simply hold you back.
The sword girl with a line of soldiers is as slippery as a loach and will not be killed at all for a while.
Seeing that the dragon's health dropped to seven or eight thousand, IG was really anxious now.
IG's midfielder gave up and continued chasing, preparing to find a TP position.
However, at this time, Smeb, who was still retreating, came closer instead.
He stood arrogantly not far from the center of IG, as if to say:
Come here!
IG was really annoyed, but they had no choice but to retreat behind the second tower and choose TP.
But what they didn't expect was that Dao Mei chose to charge the tower!
Flashing and then R, Q has already pulled out the second part of E in the past moment, and the dizzy state directly cuts off the TP in the middle of IG!
"Nice! Well done!"
Xu Yuan looked excited.
IG made a mistake!
They were eager to TP, but underestimated Smeb's determination to keep them.
At this time, it is impossible for IG's middle and top players to arrive, because their TP is cut off!
The situation suddenly took a turn for the worse for IG. King Ning gritted his teeth and had no choice but to seize the dragon.
However, how could he get close to the dragon pit?
Knowing that the opponent's top midfielder was out of reach, EDG directly cleared the field in the Dragon Pit.
Not even giving King Ning a chance to fight for punishment!
Even though Smeb in the bottom lane died, EDG on the front had easily won the first dragon of the game!
The format of the competition suddenly became much clearer.
Until now, EDG has officially gained a very obvious advantage.
And the next time...
EDG naturally promotes around the Baron BUFF.
Akali and Dao Mei went up and down, while the rest of Ye Fu protected Xu Yuan and approached the middle.
Three ways to push together!
It is difficult for IG's top laner or mid laner to defend against Akali who is supported by the Baron BUFF.
Only the sword girl who died in battle can handle it.
However, even though she is a sword girl, her singles ability is still very strong.
IG began to become overwhelmed.
One defense tower after another was slowly but steadily pulled out by EDG.
After the Baron BUFF ended, IG's three-way outer towers had all fallen.
The economic gap at this time has widened to more than 7,000!
Many IG fans are a little disappointed.
Why do I suddenly feel... gone again?
"Why do you have to take care of the knife girl?"
"Do you want him to continue taking it?"
"Ka'Sa has gained weight now and has a three-piece suit. It's hard to beat her."
"This wave of operational differences is too big! IG is so uncomfortable!"
They are desperately trying to help IG find a way.
Although I knew from the beginning that the finals would be difficult to play.
But they don’t want to be taken away directly by someone three to zero!
Three to two or three to one, they can accept it.
Three to zero, that’s really a bit uncomfortable.
But facing EDG's "thriving" mid-to-top single lane, IG really has nothing to do at this time.
Although the big dragon buff has disappeared. However, at this moment, IG's development space has been compressed to the extreme.
Xiaolong, buffs and so on.
I don't dare to look at it at all.
Because of IG’s jungle area. All have been lit up by EDG!
There is not much time left for IG at this moment.
"What's next?"
Prince Ning had been knocked unconscious.
Being pulled to the side all the time, shouldn't this be our IG's favorite tactic?
Why are you so skilled at EDG!
Oh, you can also play in the middle and jungle, then it will be fine.
"Defend first, you can only defend and then look for opportunities."
Rookie remained emotionally stable and spoke seriously.
This is not a good idea, but this is the only thing IG can do.
After re-updating the EDG of the equipment, choose to hit directly.
But this time, I chose Siyi.
Lee Sang Hyuk's Akali was also in a three-piece set without saying a word. He did not choose to continue to bring it, but put pressure on him from the front and helped Xu Yuan click the tower.
Smeb's Sword Girl began to threaten IG's bottom lane high ground.
"It's such a familiar picture. Both games seem to be like this today. Obviously IG's single-band line is not low in strength, but every time I only see EDG's single-band line working. I think IG needs to think about why. "
Colonel Guan sighed and spoke.
Do you want to say that there is a difference between IG and EDG's single-band lines?
That really does exist.
IG is actually a bit stronger.
But despite being stronger, he just couldn't beat it.
As a result, EDG's mid-to-upper team developed each time, while IG defended instead.
This is not a problem with the players, it is entirely a gap in operations.
The most unlucky thing for IG is that they encountered a team like EDG that couldn't lose to them in team battles, but actually crushed them in operations.
IG's advantages in laning and team battles simply cannot make up for its operational deficiencies.
This problem doesn't matter when playing against other teams, because in terms of laning alone, IG is already beyond their reach.
But playing EDG... Want to relieve the itch and kill the lane collapse?
Then forget it.
In this dilemma, IG made only one decision:
Start a group!
This has been their comeback method in the past.
Thanks to the outstanding personal abilities of the players, IG has a very high limit for team battles, and can often create very beautiful miracle teams when it is at a disadvantage.
However, at this time, EDG's voice was on.
"keep Calm."
Xu Yuan set the tone.
"They will definitely choose to fight. IG has always been like this and will not choose to continue to play back."
"Let's start the group directly later, don't give them the chance to attack us."
"Xiaotian, get ready!"
He knows very well that IG is not a team that waits to die.
Under this disadvantage, their choice must be to start a group.
Then Xu Yuan's choice is... to take the initiative!
You IG like to play in groups, are we EDG afraid of playing in groups?
You drive me? I'm going to drive you again!
Just when IG was about to start a group, the field of vision suddenly went dark.
Rookie was shocked.
"They're on!"
This is the lights-out of Nightmare’s ultimate move!
EDG did not choose to pull, but decisively chose to start a group.
This caught IG off guard.
By the time Nightmare's ultimate move ended, the auxiliary Tahm Kench had been killed. Ah Shui barely survived, but he had also lost his combat effectiveness.
Rookie's Jayce was even flashed and had to retreat.
The damage is too high!
EDG knew very well how fiercely they charged, so they charged very decisively.
"It's over! IG has been directly dispersed and has lost its combat effectiveness!"
"Although they only lost one Tahm, the Sword Demon's ultimate move has been activated, and the AD has no health, so they can only give up the Highland Tower!"
"In this case, we will fall into two directions!"
Colonel Guan's words were flying and his eyes were getting more and more excited.
It's almost over!
Two highland towers and crystals were destroyed at the same time.
EDG did not choose to retreat at this time, but chose to continue pushing forward!
The opponent's key skills are all used up. At this time, IG has no defensive ability for them.
"EDG didn't leave, they are still pushing!"
"IG is still defending desperately, but it's useless. The last wave of EDG suddenly rushed into the formation and knocked out their skills. Now IG can't fight at all. The economic gap is too big!"
"Ace! Team destroyed!"
"Then...I think it's time to congratulate EDG."
After completing the team elimination of IG, Colonel Guan also showed a slight smile.
With the explosion of IG crystal, the score reached 2-0.
Two consecutive crushing games with little ability to fight back allowed everyone to truly see who is the strongest team in this era.
The name of this team is-EDG!
In the third round, EDG repeated its old tricks, and IG was deeply involved. But he was still in trouble.
Even though they desperately tried to pick up the team with EDG, the calm EDG did not leave many flaws from beginning to end and easily took away IG.
"Let us congratulate EDG!"
"With a crushing score of three to zero, we won the championship of the 2018 League of Legends Global Finals!"
"we are the champion!"
