Fierce shooter

Li Luo's Yasuo was not leaking, but Abu didn't know that although Li Luo had used Yasuo during live broadcasts before, he had also used Yasuo once in an All-Star event.

But these "brilliant achievements" have little reference value for Abramovich.

Li Luo's ability to score points smoothly during rankings relies on more than just his own skill level.

Also has his powerful command ability.

In fact, many professional players who also have the ability to command cannot use their advantages in rank. After all, everyone is playing in the Korean server. It is very difficult to command teammates when there is a language barrier. , even the most basic communication may not be possible.

In terms of English, everyone only knows the simplest communication methods, such as gap and noob.

Using these to communicate can be counterproductive.

Li Luo was different. In addition to his hand speed that was so fast that he could type and communicate in addition to operating, Li Luo could also communicate with his teammates in the most concise way possible. Anyone who wasn't a fool would probably understand.

In addition to Li Luo, there is another player who can do similar things to him, but the two are fundamentally different. Li Luo communicates and interacts, while the other player records the time of each hero on the opposite side, and his hand speed is also explosive.

Therefore, Li Luo's ranking is the same as drinking water, and he doesn't play Yasuo much. In addition, in the All-Star Game, he played Yasuo in a wild card region like Brazil. Unless King Ning can It's wrong to have no comparison in training matches, otherwise Blue Saber would be too good at formulating tactics around orphan heroes like Yasuo.

…

The LPL summer split is progressing in an orderly manner.

EDG's defeat in the German Cup did not affect our hostile attitude in the second half of the summer split.

Just like the envy of a very small number of teams.

The team that King Ning belongs to often has a unique understanding of the arrival of a new version.

When the two heroes Zhu Xiangxiong and Crocodile became EDG's mainstream hero choices at the beginning of the summer split, EDG's opponents were miserable.

The reason why EDG can adapt to the version so quickly is closely related to Ning Wang's wall-hanging existence.

In the 8.11 version updated on June 4, none of the equipment that was once exclusive to a few ADCs has received relatively minor changes.

The Sickle of Essence.

That is to say, it sucks Zhuxiang.

King Ning also appeared during MSI.

But at this time, the Sui Zhu Xiang and the Sui Jin Gong that have been changed in version 8.11 are completely two pieces of equipment.

The gold-sucking tribute synthesis formula updated in version 8.11 has been changed to Storm Sword, Caulfield's Warhammer and Sapphire Crystal.

The total price also changed from 3,400 yuan to 3,200 yuan.

Removed the amount of mana restored from critical hits and the chance of critical hits.

But correspondingly, Gold-Sucking Gong has a new feature that allows you to recover mana from basic attacks.

Apart from this, the biggest change of the Gold-Sucking Gong is that it adds a new attribute.

Before releasing a small move, the last basic attack within ten seconds will provide a Cui Yao effect. This effect lasts for 8 seconds. It will not only provide the hero with 30% attack speed, but also increase the normal attack speed. 20% of non-mini-skill CDs will be returned.

That attribute is extremely terrifying.

The coaches of a few teams realized right away that Lucian might once again become an unpopular ad carry in the version.

The rules of hero weakness in League of Legends generally revolve around the word "worse".

Except for most of the unpopular heroes in a version because their attributes are too weak or the compatibility with the equipment of the current version is too low, in a small number of cases it is because the weak heroes in the next version have been nerfed and are not playable. , then there is no chance to come forward.

Lucian is outstanding in terms of hero attributes.

However, the changes to Essence Reaper are suspected to change Lucian's ecology.

All the changes made that version of the eight-piece ADC faster in dealing with tank heroes with or without armor penetration.

Lucian, stood up.

The current version of the eight-piece set of Zhu Xiangxiong's standard outfit method is ruined, white cut and gold-absorbing tribute.

And without those eight pieces of equipment, once Lucian starts a team fight with a small move, I will become silky smooth after triggering the passive of Su Zhuxiang, which can be achieved by a very small number of adc players without them. Resist the charm.

However, many people would not associate the equipment of Suijingong with crocodiles.

Therefore, when WE and EDG, who were in the middle and lower grades, faced off at the beginning of the summer split, EDG taught WE a good lesson.

WE was one point behind and planned to use Xiye's unique skill Kassadin to equalize the score in the seventh game.

At that time, the college boy took out a mid-lane crocodile that everyone had expected.

And in the team battle, he stole the spotlight from everyone, including King Ning, and locked Kassadin on the spot with his perfectly connected penalty stance W.

Crocodiles are in need of a rundown.

Therefore, when a crocodile does not have a two-piece suit, at this point in time, my combat power is incomparable.

EDG became the first to try something new.

And before that game, the seventh person to take advantage of the situation was the RW team.

doinb also used the mid laner Crocodile to help us cut off WE's bone.

Two consecutive BO3s were destroyed by crocodiles, and Xiye was paralyzed.

But the fact is that Xiye's hero pool is indeed too difficult to be targeted by crocodiles.

Otherwise, during that month, teams were fumbling with the meta, trying to find ways to win fewer games.

With the tightening and slowing down of Sui Zhuxiang in version 8.12, the passive effect that lasts four seconds has been strengthened to 6 seconds. At the same time, the attack speed provided by the passive has also been strengthened from 30% to 20%. Ning The king then understood that the golden tribute was probably going to be short-lived.

That kind of equipment is just like some supermodel heroes. As long as the mechanism changes, no matter how slight the value is cut, there will still be a small number of players willing to pay for these short few seconds.

It's just another change made by Riot Games in version 8.12 that aroused the dismay of countless ADC players and even players.

This means that the shield skills of soft assistants like Feng Nan, Karma, and Lulu have all been cut.

The duration of the shield has been increased.

The gain is also increased.

At the same time, the incense burner monster was also killed.

The incense burner, which originally had 10% shield weakness left, was cut by 2%.

This made the already difficult adcs in the current version even worse. Except for Lucian, who was a T0-level adc who was active both in rank and in the field, the other adcs... were pretty miserable.

"Brother Luo, even your kind of support has been implicated by him. Does he know that people outside the ad circle are scolding him now? They are obviously targeting you, but in the end they are all AOE."

Meiko said laughing and crying before seeing the announcement of the version update.

"He has no evidence that he is targeting you? You should sue him for defamation."

There was also a hint of helplessness in Prince Ning's tone.

Squeeze adc's living space, so that as long as I get Lucian, it will be difficult to widen the gap with my opponents when I get other heroes like in the future.

That fist move can be described as ruthless.

"Xi Si'er, you've also been losing points recently. It's too hard for my mother to beat."

Li Luo was also roaring here.

That version is perfect for those who love to cause trouble.

As a result, team-type orders like Li Luo's are very popular in the rankings, and it is difficult for them to be defeated by weak heroes and junglers.

Changes to some equipment will increase the rolling range of the snowball before collapse. In addition, the rank of the king's game will be more difficult to surrender. Once the disadvantage is too small and we know that the roll is correct, we will slowly/ff retreat to the previous level. Bundle.

Li Luo's low score is indeed difficult.

"Actually, his team-type orders are the most valuable. Brother, you support him."

Datian said uncharacteristically.

"That's right. You're too good at it. The new version of Sword Demon can be mastered completely. Q is empty and W is empty...it's too difficult."

Li Luo was not moved at the same time, but after a while, I sighed and said.

"That's really okay. Can he find a jungler to double queue?"

Dadi suggested again.

Li Luo's eyes lit up: "He is waiting for you, will you be together?"

Datian's expression changed when he heard this: "You are already enlightening him, why would he want to repay kindness with hatred?"

Li Luo was stunned for a moment, then stared: "Xi Si'er! Fuck you..."

…

Just as EDG was having a cordial interaction with the jungle seven, Zhu Kai walked back with a notepad, clapped his hands and said: "I just got the news that the schedule of the Intercontinental Championship has been finalized, and the version of the Intercontinental Championship is 8.13. Recently, I have been preparing for a game in Hanbok."

"ha?"

Meiko was surprised: "8.13? That's too much. Your competition server is still playing 8.11, and it will be changed to 8.12 at the end of the month. By then, there will only be one or four days left before the start of the intercontinental competition. Then 8.13..."

Others in EDG also frowned.

The national server is already a version behind the local server.

For example, the rank version of the Korean server we are using for training at this time has reached 8.13.

The Korean server's competition server will also be updated very slowly. It is expected to be a few times different from the time when the Chinese server's competition server will be updated to 8.12.

But the problem is that the current training matches in the Korean server are basically regressed in the 8.13 version, and we have stopped adapting to that version.

On the other hand, the national server can do that. After all, the last version of the competition server was still in 8.12. If they want to cope with the summer split in that version, LPL teams will formulate and execute tactics around the 8.12 version.

You can have your cake and eat it too.

While training for the LPL league version, we also have to find time to train for the intercontinental version.

That’s it if it’s a major updated version.

However, there is no major update in 8.13. This is the rework of Sword Demon.

The Sword Demon before the rework can be judged from the weakness in the rank and its own attributes. It is a hero that can be taken into the game as soon as it is changed and become a must-choose hero.

On the other hand, when Urgot was reworked, it took a long time before anyone got to the playing field to play.

What kind of talented player is Zhu Xiang?

I am hardworking.

But no matter how hard I work, I have to be given the appropriate time to work hard.

Zhu Xiang, the hero of the Sword Demon, still has a clear grasp behind his eyes.

In this way, in the intercontinental competition, EDG will suffer more in the BP.

"Is Riot playing a big role in the LCK? That version is too good for us."

Ming Kai also shook his head slightly and said.

What Ming Kaisheng learned is this down-to-earth feeling of thoroughly studying the version and the opponent.

Obviously there was no time for me to study during that intercontinental competition.

"It's okay if it's just one of your teams. Take a look at it. Outside of the ADC heroes, Jinx, Cannon, Rat and other heroes that have been popular for a long time have all been weakened. Even if the Incense Burner monster has not been weakened, You can also try to play around you as the core."

King Ning's eyes flickered slightly: "The key is that the intercontinental competition is a collective event. Whether my eight teams can adapt to 8.13 is a question."

"It's easy to say. The Flag of Command has been deleted in the 8.13 version. RNG should be feeling very happy here. IG... just need to worry about the state of our Neuro Knife. As for RW, to be honest, in your opinion, RW is the opposite They are the first team to be integrated into the 8.13 version.”

Zhu Xiang also came down and said.

"In any case, let's prepare actively. The Korean team has been languishing since last year's World Championship. We are holding back our energy and want to make a comeback."

…

Early July.

The intercontinental tournament is coming.

The intercontinental competition will be held in Xiaolian.

The intercontinental competition is divided into several divisions, and the competition between divisions will be the same.

As for the Asian Tournament, there are eight divisions and 17 teams participating.

Each of the eight divisions of LPL, LCK, and LMS does not have four teams participating.

According to the schedule, there will be a BO1 confrontation between the seventeen teams, ensuring that each division will play 8 BO1 games with the other two divisions.

The BO1 that each team needs to retreat is two games.

In the end, they will be ranked according to the points system, and the bottom seven divisions will advance to the finals. The seven teams competing in each division will use a model similar to "Tianji Horse Racing" to guess the team that the opponent will send outside a certain game, and Let your side send the team they think is most suitable to participate in the battle.

For the audience, although the duration of the intercontinental competition was relatively short, the format of the competition was very boring and exciting.

Tian Ji Horse Racing told the audience that in such a competition system, there is no chance that the so-called superior horse will beat the inferior horse, and the gap in partial strength can be smoothed out purely through tactics.

Not to mention the LCK, even the LMS division, which has assembled seven teams through good or bad luck, is gearing up, trying to get its hands on the championship newly added to the minor slam by Riot Games.

The last thing is that we can get past the group stage.

July 2nd.

Each small team arrived at Xiaolian after a delay of eight days.

What's more boring is that all the players are together, and so are the coaches. This is a battle related to the dignity of the competition area, so the players and coaches need to do less with each other during the retreat of this intercontinental competition. Communicate and understand each other.

"Brother Luo, have you missed me?"

When meeting everyone on IG, Abu first licked his face and leaned in.

"Does he want to hear the truth or lies?"

Prince Ning blinked.

"This must be the truth."

Abu chuckled.

"It's a pity that you let him down. You still miss others more."

King Ning shook his head and went down, hugged and said hello to Rookie, The shy, Ah Shui, Bao Lan and others, but left Abu alone.

"What's that called? That's called licking the dog to the front..."

Datian came close to Abu and spoke loudly, but he was interrupted by Abu mid-sentence: "You have heard that sentence, the first lick reaches the house."

Abu glanced at me and hummed. At that moment, out of the corner of his eye, Zhu Xiang caught a glimpse of a nimble figure running towards that direction at a slow speed, and a smile appeared on his expression.

Then Zhu Xiang turned around and opened his arms to welcome the visitor: "Sen Senming, it's been so long since I've seen my brother, but..."

However, Abu's expression was somewhat frozen in the last second.

I saw Shi Senming nimbly avoiding my special move of Zack's Q skill, jumping towards King Ning, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Sneak attack!"

"He overestimated the ADC's reaction speed."

Ning Wang made a backhand and intercepted it.

Nearby, everyone from RNG has also arrived.
