Fierce shooter

The semi-finals kicked off with great anticipation.

As far as Riot is concerned, no matter whether Mingkai plays well or badly, as long as he appears, it is a gimmick and a hit!

In addition to Wawa and Miller, there is also special guest pdd who is responsible for the commentary today.

Changmao, who partnered with the two last time, is missing.

In the commentary box, Miller, who was wearing a small suit, straightened his tie, smiled when he saw the camera coming towards him, and began his opening remarks.

Doll and pdd followed closely behind.

pdd's ill-fitting suit was a bit funny, but the audience was used to it. After all, pdd had already shown it to audiences around the world at last year's World Championship.

"Today's game...to be honest, I thought it would be explained in a few days at first."

pdd spoke up, he did not speak tactfully, he said what he meant, and the profound meaning contained in this sentence was naturally self-evident.

Seeing pdd start to raise his head, Wawa was not to be outdone, and said with a smile: "Nothing is absolute. If EDG's opponent is FNC, of ​​course I believe that EDG can complete the revenge and successfully advance to the finals."

"But that's not necessarily the case for the other group. After all, Flash Wolves have a reputation of being the best anti-Korean heroes."

"That's true, but BO3 and BO5 are still different after all."

pdd does not deny Wawa's point of view. After all, KZ and Flash Wolves have played against each other the most times in the group stage. Counting extra games, the two teams have played against each other three times.

The Flash Wolves have won two of these three times.

"You've gone too far. What I'm looking forward to now is the collision between Mr. Ming and Little Peanut again."

Miller interrupted the two of them with a smile on his face: "What hero do you think the factory director will choose in the first round today?"

"What do you mean by this? From your tone, you feel that our factory's hero pool is very shallow?"

The doll pretended to be funny and widened his eyes: "If you don't say far, let's just say that he agrees with the current version. The director can play the hero Scorpion, right? I have seen him play many times in the recent rankings."

"Director can also play functional heroes like Pig Girl and Troll perfectly. He can also play carry heroes like Olaf Gunman. Early-game rhythm heroes like Excavator Mantis are even more special to Director."

"There are so many heroes. Even if KZ gives all the ban positions to the factory director, can they be used?"

Miller was a little stunned by Wawa's clear and logical analysis. If he thought about it carefully, Wawa's analysis was traceable. There was nothing wrong with linking these heroes with the factory director. No matter how many of these heroes the factory director took out, Whichever one of them will make you feel at ease from the bottom of your heart.

Miller suddenly felt that he should reflect.

When did he begin to subconsciously feel that the factory director’s only trademark was a pig girl?

"You're missing a hero."

pdd suppressed a smile and said with a narrow look on his face: "A hero that our LPL junglers will definitely play."

As Ming Kai's old rival, pdd's ridicule caused the barrage to explode.

"Bold pdd! What are you implying!?"

"Are you kidding? The winning rate of the blind monk in our factory is really high, right? Do you understand the value of 45 games with a winning rate of 62?"

"After all, don't make fun of the blind monk. Although our factory doesn't use R flash very much on the field, it is still a 6 in the rankings."

"Let's play excavator. The excavator in our factory has the most games in his career, and the winning rate is close to 80. MD is outrageous!"

"First-year players still need to look through previous games to see our factory's dominance!"

"That's true, but in this day and age... the factory director can only be regarded as a remnant of the old days."

"Oh, let's not talk about it. Fortunately, Brother Luo and the factory director are in the same team. When I mention Brother Luo, I feel like the factory director during the civil war. That's called stability!"

While the barrage players were talking about it, the teasing of the three commentators also came to an end.

The BP between both sides is about to begin.

"EDG here has got the priority to choose the side! They took the initiative to choose the blue side, and the BP between the two sides has officially begun!"

As Miller finished speaking, the audience became attentive.

With a former professional player like pdd here, the BP game between the two sides will be analyzed clearly and clearly. As ordinary players, if they can witness the whole process and discover the tricks, they should be considered half coaches, right?

Many viewers were thinking that the ban seats on both sides had appeared one after another.

"EDG's first three bans were to kill Vampire and Tahm Kench, and the last move... was given to Jace!"

"It seems that EDG doesn't want to make the early laning on the top lane too uncomfortable. The first three bans for the KZ team are given to Karma, Troll and...Ryze, oh, Jin Gong. The captain has been released! Do you want to take it?"

Miller looked at KZ's BP with some surprise.

Especially when the last hand was given to Ryze instead of the captain.

You must know that after entering MSI, no team is willing to release Jin Gong's captain.

Because the captain of Jin Gong is too stable.

His captain will never put barrels with low fault tolerance in a teamfight.

At the same time, the release timing of the ultimate move is well controlled.

In addition, Jin Gong's captain seems to have the attribute of invisibility in team battles. Most teams will ignore Jin Gong's existence in the first wave of large-scale collisions due to Jin Gong's early pressure resistance performance.

When they came back to their senses and started to pay attention to Jin Gong, they found that it was too late. This guy had unknowingly developed to resist pressure.

pdd saw it very clearly. He looked at KZ's ban person and said thoughtfully: "I think there is another reason why I pressed Ryze and didn't choose to ban the captain. Their ban position is not enough."

"EDG showed many tactical systems in this MSI, and the combination of Troll and Ornn is one of them. This EDG will use Ornn as a power bank vampire and a Jay that has strong line suppression. Si, has already given the signal to KZ to take Ornn."

"In this case, it is understandable to kill the troll. Needless to say, Karma, it is impossible to release Luo Ge's Ezreal with Karma's system KZ."

"As for Ryze... I think KZ can't handle EDG's lane switching system. Thain and Ryze's linkage with EDG is very good. I have to say that KZ still has something. Their first three bans blocked Ornn. The troll's overhead shooting system, moving castle system and teleportation system are also targeted at the bottom lane, all aspects are in place."

pdd's analysis was clear and logical, leaving Miller and Wawa stunned for a moment.

But the only thing the two of them don't quite understand is... what the hell is the penis on the top of their head?

Can this also be said in the commentary box?

After pdd's words fell, before the two of them could say anything more, EDG's first floor had already been finalized.

It's just that EDG, the hero locked on the first floor, is a bit surprising.

"Sion? It's locked! Ah? EDG doesn't plan to take the captain?"

As soon as Thain came out, the three people in the commentary box looked at each other.

In the KZ battle table, Sin, the coach in BP, also frowned.

This made his idea very simple. As long as EDG locked the captain, he would get the Sword Princess for Khan.

This is a classic battle that EDG played in the LPL Spring Split.

Now they face a tough choice.

First of all, they don't know whether Thain will go on the road or in the middle. There is a certain possibility of Thain swinging.

In this case, if they choose the captain first, they may face being countered by EDG.

Another point is that this EDG has released their signature hero Rock Bird in the mid lane for the first time.

They want to take this rock bird.

"Get me the male gun, don't give them the initiative."

Little Peanut said in a deep voice.

Sin frowned for a moment and nodded slightly: "Okay."

There are too many powerful heroes released.

Kasha is also outside now.

They only have two spots and can't take them.

The male gun on the first floor and the rock bird on the second floor were quickly determined by KZ.

However, the selection of the EDG team was particularly rapid thereafter.

A long-lost hero for Li Luo appeared.

Xia.

EDG followed closely and locked Luo on the third floor.

In this game, KZ was unable to ban Luo in the first three moves as usual due to insufficient ban positions.

This naturally gives EDG a choice.

"Xia Luo, it's locked! In my mind, this seems to be the first time Luo and Meiko used Xia Luo's combination after going to EDG!"

pdd raised his voice: "It's a pity that the champion skin has not been launched yet, otherwise we would have seen Xia Luo's champion skin appear for the first time!"

Of course pdd didn't say a word.

Although... this Luo is not Pi Luo.

"In this case, EDG already has a double team system. Although the Xia Luo combination's laning strength has been reduced a bit, but how to say...the two are still strong together. Next, it depends on how KZ chooses."

While Miller was thoughtful, a group of players and coaches were having an intense discussion in the KZ Arena.

"We won't take the captain anymore. Let's press it in the second round and take Kai'Sa."

pray gives advice.

It is indeed difficult to take the captain first without being sure whether the opponent has a counter position, especially for the system they want to play in this semi-final.

What KZ is worried about is that if they take the captain, their own pace will be slower, and they will have to assume the ban position of Kennen in the second round.

If EDG makes the choice of mid laner Thain and top laner Kennen, they will be in trouble during the laning period.

"Then it's Kai'Sa. We have the rock bird on this one. The rhythm will be much lighter."

Sin nodded. Although this would mean that they would have to assume a captain's ban position in the second round, their lineup would be very good overall.

They have the counter position, and EDG's lineup will be exposed to them first, so KZ is not in a hurry to choose the top laner.

There are still many supporting heroes that can match Kai'Sa. In the second round, EDG obviously couldn't ban them all when they only had two ban positions.

The top three picks for both sides have been finalized.

The second round of bp begins.

EDG did not choose to target Khan. Khan's hero pool is relatively deep. In addition to some heroes in the version, there are also heroes such as Jax and Sword Princess who are not included in the version. Players can play them as long as they are proficient. Evergreen hero.

Targeting Khan makes no sense.

Therefore, EDG's two bans in the second round were given to Morgana and Titan respectively.

On the other hand, the KZ team eliminated the Captain and Scorpion in the second round of BP.

EDG has not released a jungler yet.

With Mingkai's hero pool unable to target him, KZ chose to eliminate Scorpion, who was popular in the version and had a high affinity with Thain.

This is also the first time that EDG's Scorpion has been banned.

In the current version, this hero is not afraid of the powerful male guns in the jungle. Whether it is the acceleration of the W skill or the control of the E followed by the basic attack, it can greatly limit the pursuit of the male guns.

Although it is difficult for the Scorpion to kill the male gunner alone, it is impossible for the male gunner to catch the Scorpion and kill it in the wild area. If the pursuit is too deep, the Scorpion may trap him and drag him to his teammates. Complete the counterattack.

Therefore, KZ decided to use the ban position on this hero after much thought.

After the ban, KZ quickly defeated Thresh on the fourth floor.

There are currently two auxiliary heroes off the court that are more suitable, one is Thresh and the other is Tauren.

When facing Xia Luo, Niu Tou is easily beaten, and when the duo reaches level 6, it will be more difficult for Niu Tou to open Xia Luo again.

After much thought, Thresh is more suitable.

At this time, KZ is not worried about EDG selecting Ornn. Selecting Ornn and Thain is equivalent to giving all the output pressure to the adc. Unless the effect is very unsatisfactory when playing other systems, it will rarely be used. There are teams that choose this way.

EDG naturally doesn't either.

Therefore, after KZ finalized Thresh, the EDG team first locked Zoe on the fourth floor.

After seeing Zoe, Khan's frown relaxed slightly.

Thain is in the lane.

That's okay.

Although Sion's consumption ability and tankiness are exceptionally good, this thing is too bulky, and there are many heroes who can beat him during the laning phase.

KZ's current lineup has three output points: Male Gun, Rock Bird, and Kai'Sa. They only need to add a functional hero or a single hero to the upper unit.

Before that, they still have to pay attention to what EDG will choose for the jungle position.

Little Peanut stared at the only unlit fifth floor of EDG and fell into deep thought.

Collier's Dirty Dancing.

What would you choose?

Under the camera of the director, Ming Kai was talking to others with a faint smile on his face at the EDG battle table.

The moment he felt the camera cut over, the smile on Ming Kai's face disappeared, his expression tensed, and he instantly focused on the screen.

And just when this picture appeared, the hero on the fifth floor of EDG had quickly locked down.

Keng!

I use my hands to make your dreams come true!

The hero is finalized.

There were shouts of surprise at the scene.

In China, countless players were stunned the moment they saw this hero.

The ice cream in some people's hands slipped.

Some people were eating duck necks and chewed up all the bones without realizing it.

There are also people who forget to get off the subway after passing the station.

In the commentary box.

The mouths of Doll and Miller opened slightly.

pdd was the first to couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah? Brother, are you serious?"

Facts have proved that EDG is serious.

Just like that autumn that year, Mingkai once again chose his blind monk.

S6 to S8.

Two years have passed.

No one knows how much an older player's performance will decline in two years.

However, EDG's courage to choose Blind Sin really shocked fans and players who like other teams.

"Do you dare to choose this?"

Miller rubbed his nose and stared at the screen.

He thought about many heroes.

But I didn't expect that EDG would choose the blind monk to jungle on the fifth floor.

Not to mention the fans.

Even the opponent KZ was stunned for a while. It was not until the countdown was about to end that they locked the last hero in the counter position.

Still Camille.

Khan's confident choice.

"In that case...the lineups on both sides are completely determined."

"The EDG team on the blue side has Sion in the top lane, Lee Sin in the jungle, Zoe in the mid lane, and the duo of Xia and Luo in the bottom lane."

"The red side KZ team has Kamil in the top lane, Jungle Gunslinger, Rockbird in the mid lane, and the bottom duo is Kai'Sa paired with Thresh!"

I had a bit of heat stroke today and took a day off. I saw the news about the epidemic today and I was panicking in Chengdu. . The most worrying thing has happened. Tonight, everyone's nucleic acid test escaped from Kunshan, but not from Chengdu.
