Fierce shooter

The EDG team, which was once a victorious general in the German Cup, did not have a smooth schedule in this Zhuhai station, and even caused some waves in public opinion.

EDG lost to BLG in the quarter-finals with only Li Luo missing.

The MSI champion's spray-free rights, as fans said, only lasted for half a month.

It would be fine if it was lost to the complete IG or RNG.

But in the end, they lost to BLG, whose league results have always been tepid.

Even though the BLG team has undergone some personnel changes in this summer split, and the main players in the LPL starting lineup are still the main players, EDG should not lose.

Comments such as "Under the sun, everything appears" and "Do you know who is in C in the team?" were overwhelmingly expressed.

The fact that EDG did not make any apology or statement on Weibo also exacerbated the tension.

Of course, there are also reasonable fans who can look at and analyze this matter with a calm attitude. After all, Li Luo's status in EDG is not just as simple as an adc player.

Fortunately, if it ends early, you can also take an early vacation.

Everyone in EDG did not leave Zhuhai after the German Cup, and even had a good time in Zhuhai for a few days.

Beside the hotel's swimming pool, everyone from EDG was sitting on the lounge chairs, feeling very comfortable.

"This wave, it's really been sprayed to pieces."

Meiko stretched out and looked at Li Luo, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.

"There's nothing I can do. I didn't feel it before. Now that Brother Luo is gone, I realize that Ye Ye's conductor is acting like a fool."

Xiaotian yawned from the side.

"Fuck, what are you talking about?"

Meiko stared, and his whole body became nervous, but soon, he was as deflated as a punctured ball: "What can I do? Commanding this thing depends on talent."

"Actually, your command is very good, but compared to Brother Luo, it's not that good."

The junior boy next to him couldn't help but comfort him.

It was okay if he didn't comfort her, but with this comfort, Meiko felt even more uncomfortable.

The way they lost to BLG was not ugly.

The score was also 2 to 1, with EDG slightly inferior.

But as MSI champions, they did feel a little disappointed when they lost this game.

Abu and Zhu Kai didn't care about this, and even felt a little lucky.

EDG went so smoothly in the first half of the year, so smoothly that it even gave people an... unreal illusion.

According to Abramovich's experience, this kind of smoothness will not last long. Regardless of whether the team's strength will stagnate if it continues for a long time, there will definitely be problems with the players' mentality.

The players are all human beings, and they are all young people.

It is unrealistic for them to maintain a normal heart and calmly face the highest honor of professional players. They are not robots without self-feeling.

But Li Luo...

When Abu thought about this, he also thought of Li Luo.

In his impression, Li Luo... seemed a bit like a robot.

But Abu didn't know that Li Luo was more cautious in nature. The big losses he suffered before his rebirth made him restrained.

In addition, Li Luo has witnessed three S championship trophies won by the LPL. This also leads to the fact that when Li Luo wins the first championship trophy of the LPL, he will subconsciously confuse the timeline before his rebirth with it. At the same time, this will give Li Luo the illusion that "what he won is not the first championship trophy."

This illusion also greatly curbed Li Luo's emotions. In addition, Li Luo himself was not very good at showing his emotions, which made him look very calm and unscientific.

Abu doesn't worry when Li falls.

But Abramovich also clearly knows that the contract between EDG and Li Luo is only for one year.

Regardless of this year's results, whether Li Luo can stay in EDG next year is still unknown.

In Abu's eyes, the fact that Li Luo has grown to this point in such a short period of time is tantamount to a very terrifying thing.

Li Luo no longer needed him to worry about.

What really worries Abu is other people.

He also hopes that everyone in the EDG team will grow to the point where they can stand alone.

In this process, setbacks are inevitable.

Not only was Abramovich not angry about the defeat in the German Cup this time, he was actually surprised. Falling at least once will make the players sober and recognize themselves clearly, so as not to become complacent.

Because Abu can vaguely feel that after half a season, EDG players have gradually begun to develop a sense of dependence on Li Luo. If dependence can be grasped within a certain "degree", it is actually benign, like a hero. In competitive games like the League, players in each position view the game differently and understand the game differently.

Disagreement can easily arise in this situation.

Too many disagreements mean distrust.

The slight sense of dependence just represents the players' unconditional trust in Li Luo.

But if you feel too dependent...

On the contrary, the gain will outweigh the loss.

…

At this time, Li Luo was sitting on the edge, wearing sunglasses and taking a nap.

He enjoyed this long-lost comfort.

Of course, Li Luo was not idle when his teammates were playing in the past two days.

There is another key aspect in this update.

That is the change in talent.

The first is the nerf to Swift Step.

The Swift Steps cut was very hard, not only cutting off 10% of the movement speed, but also cutting off the extra life recovery during critical hits.

As the preferred talent of most ADCs in the current version, this attack is not without mercy.

But what Li Luo focused on was another talent.

That is the new "Cluster Blade".

In Li Luo's impression, the appearance of Cong Ren before his rebirth did not actually change the talent ecology of adc heroes too much.

Most mainstream adcs have switched from fast pace to lethal pace or strong attack.

Kai'Sa will still choose the fast-paced build method.

Cong Ren was not very popular in the version that just came out.

Li Luo took a closer look at the Cong Ren data that just came out... and felt that there was a reason for his unpopularity.

Kai'Sa's mainstream talent before rebirth, Cluster Blade, would provide a 110% attack speed bonus to the hero's first three basic attacks.

And if there is a way to reset the basic attack, Cong Blade will not count the three triggered attacks, which means that the hero can do four attacks in one second.

But the newly emerged Cluster Blade talent only provides 50%-100% (adaptive at levels 1-18) for the first three basic attacks.

This is also very confusing.

Choosing Cluster Blade itself is to strengthen blood exchange during the laning period.

50% attack speed, how about feeding the cat?

When the hero really reaches level 18, will he still lack the three bursts of attack speed from your Cluster Blade?

Seeing this situation, Li Luo could only sigh. He had not been very disappointed with this version before, but now he saw that, good guy, the fists are really not human anymore.

Now Li Luo's only hope is that Fist can find his conscience early and strengthen the Cong Blade.

Nowadays, even dogs don’t use this attribute...but...5 seconds of recovery after being out of combat is much more conscientious than 12 seconds before rebirth.

Li Luo calculated the cost-effectiveness between the two and secretly calculated the feasibility.

"By the way, Lao Li, when will the champion skin come out? When it comes out, I will buy a Luo one to support you."

Li Luo's thoughts were interrupted by Meiko, and he glanced at the latter helplessly: "I don't know the exact time yet, but it should be soon. Then remember to buy the signed version, so that when playing games, others will think that I have two assists. That’s it, Dorawind.”

"I didn't expect you to be such an old Li."

Meiko raised her middle finger contemptuously.

…

The days of ease are short-lived after all.

Just one week later, the League of Legends LPL summer regular season has kicked off.

As a frequent visitor to the opening battle, the IG team is no exception this year.

In the opening battle, IG faced the JD team.

There was no match for the EDG team on the first day, so everyone in EDG watched the match in the training room at the base.

Under normal circumstances, professional players from major teams often do not watch the live broadcast of the game. Most of them watch the replays themselves or the coach reviews the game with the team.

However, at the beginning of the new version, all major teams are eager to see other teams with schedules to give themselves a try and see how these versions of the Pioneers play the game.

IG and JD.com are the first generation pioneers.

"The five people from JD.com are all pretty good. I've been to Zoom in the Korean server. They're quite strong. They're good at playing vampires. And they especially like the one with the skin of... what's the earl? The back-to-city animation is wearing red. The one with the wine glass is very elegant.”

Meiko sat cross-legged on the e-sports chair and said: "Jungle clid, hunk, mid laner Toothpaste, Zoe's unique skills, hunk, bottom lane Loken and green hair, bottom lane as stable as an old dog, Jingdong is really strong this season of."

"Indeed, but I want to see their lineup even more. To be honest, it's been a mess in rank recently. Until the last moment, you don't even know which hero the opponent plays in which position. It's disgusting."

Xiaotian has been so disgusted recently.

Riot Games enhanced the monster experience a bit in the June 4th version update.

This very inconspicuous enhancement has a considerable impact on the jungle position.

The increased experience value of wild monsters means that the heroes’ income from clearing the jungle increases.

The increase in farm income means that the cost of gank increases.

For a player like Xiaotian who prefers rhythmic gank, this version can be regarded as a small weakening for him.

I was already losing points.

As a result, the chaos on the line caused Xiaotian's score to drop even more.

The younger brother in the middle is even more uncomfortable.

He found that there were more and more bad mid laners in this version.

There are even mid-lane players who wear salary equipment and go out with a Holy Relic Shield. When the jungler comes to the middle, the mid-lane A soldier and A cannon truck help the jungler develop.

This kind of person, who mostly appears in double rows, has the linkage between midfielder and jungler, making single row players like him miserable.

My younger brother also thought about playing a double queue with Xiaotian, but he is not the type to be a dog for the jungle, and Xiaotian is not used to playing jungle core, so the matter was shelved.

Today happens to be Rookie's game. According to the estimation of the junior, Toothpaste may be a dog to the jungler when facing Rookie. He should learn from Rookie how to deal with this situation.

The BP of the first game ended quickly.

Not surprisingly, JD.com gave the audience an opening thunderbolt.

First of all, I chose a vampire as an adc in the bottom lane to play the core.

It's just that this vampire hand looks more like grabbing instead of banning. After all, Zoom chose the captain on the top lane.

Toothpaste in the middle prepared a strong iron man to hit, and what he brought out when going out was really a shield of holy objects. It seemed that he wanted to use it to support the dragon girl selected by jungler clid.

However, IG's response was very spiritual.

In the middle, Rookie chose Lulu, and for the jungler Ning Wang, he chose Qinggang Shadow.

Rookie relied on Lulu's laning characteristics to suppress Tetsuo on the pushing end.

Then Rookie showed the attitude of eating grass and milking cows and entered the jungle to help King Ning suppress clid in various ways.

Jackeylove even defeated JD.com's bottom duo in the bottom lane. During the team battle, Jackeylove's Kai'Sa completely dominated the game with the help of Rookie.

The first game was easily won by IG.

But just when the audience thought that IG could easily defeat its opponent 2-0, JD.com was normal in the second round. On the contrary, the lineup selected by IG in the second round was relatively soft. In the end, JD.com was no less than IG in the second round. They had a big lead in one game and successfully won the second one.

These two games left the audience a little confused.

In the third round, Jingdong maintained the BP idea of ​​the second round, but IG started to get fancy. The Yasuo adc that Jackeylove took out exceeded everyone's expectations. At the same time, Rookie offered the Enchantress, which seemed a little angry. Rookie defeated Zoe of Toothpaste purely by relying on her personal ability in the middle.

IG won completely.

After three games, the audience was still unsatisfied.

The overall performance of IG is just two words.

Fight, just do it!

This eye-catching fighting method has many viewers hooked.

But what the players see is deeper.

"We're still figuring it out."

Abu rubbed his chin, thoughtfully.

Two words can be seen in every BP of both sides.

try.

It’s just that JD.com got cold feet first.

After trying it for the first time and finding that it didn't work, I started playing normally.

But IG still dared to try in the decisive game, which only shows that there is a fundamental gap in the strength of the two teams.

This is what is called 2-0, but it is not necessary.

For many viewers who are not high in the ranking but love to watch the game, they prefer that their favorite team remains undefeated. As long as they lose a game, they will start to scream from the perspective of God.

As everyone knows, for major teams, losing a handful of small points is sometimes much more important than winning all the time.

EDG won 19 consecutive games in the spring split, but lost 7 games in small games.

Is it because these seven teams are strong enough to compete with them?

actually not.

Unless you try out the lineup, you will never know how strong it is.

No team is stupid enough to go all out in scrims.

The main match is the real Shura field.

"What is certain at present is that this version of the adc position will have higher requirements and is a bit strange."

When Abu said this, he looked at Li Luo.

In just one BO3, two heroes who were not adcs but appeared in this position came out.

How many will appear after that is yet to be determined.

But what is certain is that the weakening of adc has allowed many ap heroes to crush adc heroes during laning.

This is destined to be a confusing version.

After noticing Abu's gaze, Li Luo smiled, showing his white teeth and giving a thumbs up: "Don't worry, I'm Yasuo thief 6!"
