Fierce shooter

The impact of version changes on each team is obvious.

As the second round of the LPL division begins, all major teams have experienced fluctuations to varying degrees.

Since the 2019 LPL Spring Split canceled the Eastern and Western half schedules, all teams are in the overall rankings.

The Thorn Birds team's record ranks second, which is the same as IG's record, but IG has a certain advantage in small points.

Ranked third is FPX. They have been rushing all the way from the spring split to the present with a completely different understanding from other teams. Even Li Luo finds it a bit incredible. After all, the configuration of the FPX team, although the upper limit It's good, but the instability is too exaggerated.

However, FPX has maintained a relatively strong team profile so far in the Spring Split, which should not be underestimated.

EDG ranks fourth.

EDG's version at the beginning of the spring split was sometimes smooth and sometimes difficult. It gave fans the feeling that EDG's stability was still there, and they could almost win 2-0 against weak teams.

But when they faced a strong team, they always felt like they were short of breath. Once the team's rhythm entered the mid-to-late stage, it seemed that it was difficult for anyone to break the rhythm gap.

If the stalemate lasts too long, Lin Weixiang will become a little anxious and reveal his flaws.

EDG also tried to let Jin Gong play captains, vampires and other late-stage core heroes. This was also the system that EDG was best at when Li Luo was still there.

However, lwx's tool usage is much lower than that of Li Luolai. It is difficult for EDG to get through the mid-term with only its junior players. Without Li Luo's command, Xiaotian's performance has also declined to a certain extent. After Mingkai, a veteran, was forced to take up the banner of EDG, he was teased by SofM for a while when facing FPX.

Therefore, EDG was only ranked fourth in the first half of the spring split. Although it is still a strong team, it is obviously not as dominant as last year.

It seems that after the German Cup, EDG was studied in depth by other teams because it was the first to show off its team style.

In terms of version, they are not so handy anymore.

The emergence of this situation has caused Li Luo's popularity and status to rise again in the entire LPL.

After all, when Li Luo was with EDG, EDG was never bullied by any team. Now that Li Luo is gone, EDG has only had personnel changes in the ad position. EDG's problems in this ranking are naturally blamed. At the point where "Li Luo is not here".

In addition, the Thorn Birds' performance is still ahead of EDG, and Li Luo's importance is naturally magnified again.

The fifth place is TOP. This new team has become more and more powerful after emerging in the LPL, especially its jungler XX, who is very comprehensive in jungle style, paired with Knight, who is known as a genius left hand, and a stable adcarry. 369 is quite outstanding among the Lokens and newcomers, and the potential shown by TOP should not be underestimated.

Ranked sixth is RNG. RNG ushered in its three-game losing streak before the year. Uzi's break caused RNG to briefly lose its backbone. However, after Uzi returned after the year, RNG's performance eased slightly.

The top six in the LPL Spring Split were like this before the 9.14 version update, but there were earth-shaking changes in the few games after the version update.

IG ushered in its second defeat in the league. At the same time, when facing RNG, they also won with a score of 2 to 1. After the new version update, they obviously did not play so smoothly, but IG still ranked first. .

What really attracted the most attention was the thorn bird.

The phenomenon of thorn birds becoming acclimatized appeared.

Li Luo's performance in training Jinx in the Korean server was noticed by coaches and even analysts of all teams.

Therefore, when facing the Thorn Birds, almost all of these teams will grab Jinx first or directly press down.

Although this provides a ban position for the Thorn Birds, the effect of the Thorn Birds when taking out other heroes is not that ideal.

Such as wheel mom.

When the Thorn Birds can choose Wheel Mother, it is usually when Karma and Ryze are robbed or knocked down.

There is no way for Wheel Mom to develop alone, which has caused problems in the system originally honed by Thorn Birds in the few games after the version update.

Their linkage and synergy are not as good as before. As long as Liu Qingsong doesn't get a wandering hero, the Xiangguo point will be crazily targeted.

The new hero Sylas in the current version is the mainstream hero in the mid lane position, but there is one hero who can restrain him, and that is Kassadin.

Therefore, the Thorn Birds can select Kassadin for many consecutive games, but after selecting Kassadin, the support for the jungle in the early and mid-term is far less rapid than Silas.

Therefore, Xiangguo has been feeling very uncomfortable recently.

Thorn Bird also tried to make adjustments, but the effect was not very satisfactory.

In three consecutive games, the Thorn Birds suffered two losses, losing to FPX, which is famous for its four-pack two, and BLG, which ranked in the middle.

Being able to lose to a mid-tier team already speaks volumes.

Even though the Thorn Birds' subsequent schedule is relatively easy, the Thorn Birds still need to be very careful before they get enough wins.

FPX overtook the Thorn Birds, while the EDG team suddenly emerged. The new version seems to be very suitable for them. Lin Weixiang is often able to stay alive in the early and mid-term when he gets the heroes with big cores in the late stage. EDG's structure can also help him drag him to Develop and take shape.

lwx dares to fight in team battles, which also allows him to perform very well in team battles with the equipment.

After going back and forth, the world where only the Thorn Bird was injured was achieved.

Opinions on the Internet are also changing every day.

If you win, you will brag, if you lose, you will be black. The truth is understood by netizens.

During this period, his father Li Quan also called Li Luo many times. Li Quan was worried that Li Luo would suffer from depression due to mental imbalance after falling from the previous two world championship trophies.

Li Luo couldn't laugh or cry about this either.

The Thorn Birds did lose two games, and the losses were not particularly good-looking.

But this is just a normal regular season outcome. Although the Thorns' teammates would be disappointed if they lost the game, Li Luo had been vaccinated before playing the game.

The changes in the version allowed Li Luo to determine how the Thorn Birds should take the next step.

What the Thorn Birds have to do now is to adapt to the general environment version as much as possible, and let the team successfully transform into a team that perfectly fits the version before the playoffs.

They have the unique skill of Kassadin, the counter version of T0 hero Silas, and Li Luo himself will definitely take the ban position. The advantage of Thorn Birds in the BP stage is infinite.

The current Thorn Bird needs more training in BO5 than BO3.

Of course, this does not mean that the Thorn Birds did not try their best when facing FPX and BLG, but it just has some reservations in tactics.

Now three weeks have passed quietly.

Li Luo felt that it was time for the team to engage in the final point-grabbing battle of the regular season.

Among the next opponents, except for EDG, which they will face soon, the remaining teams are ranked very low in the league.

In other words, the strong teams have been beaten to pieces by the Thorn Birds, and the remaining weaker teams have a high probability of being defeated even if the Thorn Birds hide their tactics.

How to crack the hard nut of EDG is the top priority of the Thorn Birds' recent exploration.

On the eve of the game.

Meiko called and asked Li Luo to go out for a hangout.

Li Luo happily agreed.

However, when Li Luo got into position, he found that not only Meiko was there, but also Ming Kai and Xiao Tian.

"It's not very good to openly go out to see your ex behind your current wife's back, isn't it?"

Li Luo said with a joking expression.

"It's okay, it's okay. My current boss doesn't know that I came out to see you... Oops, no, Lao Li, why are you so disgusted?"

Meiko laughed first as she spoke.

After saying hello to Mingkai and Xiaotian, the four of them found a seat and sat down. Today, the place where Meiko entertained guests was a bit like a casual restaurant. The few of them ordered some food casually, added a few glasses of sparkling water, and went inside the store. chatting in the corner.

"Why do you suddenly remember that we got together today? Are the three of you secretly planning to ask me out?"

Li Luo looked at the three of them and said.

"You're overthinking, Brother Luo, we are fully confident that we can torture you tomorrow."

Xiaotian said confidently.

"That's right. Be careful tomorrow. Or if you treat me today, I can reveal a little bit about my tactics."

"No need to."

Li Luo waved his hand, with a hint of meaning in his eyes: "Don't you think tomorrow will be safe?"

Meiko stared at Li Luo's expression for several seconds, then spread her hands to Xiaotian and Mingkai: "Hey, look, what am I talking about? I know Lao Li's mentality very well, although he is here I haven’t withstood the impact of public opinion much before, but I know that his mentality is absolutely fine. Look at his eyes, they can’t lie.”

"It sounds like you can read faces, so tell me, last time you and Lin Weixiang looked at each other for ten seconds, what did you see in Lin Weixiang's eyes?"

Xiaotian curled his lips with a look of disbelief.

Meiko touched her chin and thought thoughtfully for a long time, then stretched out a finger and said, "Innocence."

"Hey, hey, it's okay. It's wrong for you to talk about your teammates behind their backs."

Of course Li Luo could tell that the two were joking in good faith, but he still spoke.

Everyone chatted for almost an hour and then each returned to their base.

Watching the three people leave, Li Luo still felt warm in his heart.

Today, EDG three people suddenly asked themselves out, and except for the beginning, everyone talked about things other than games. Coupled with the meaning in the three people's voices, Li Luo probably understood the worries between the three people.

Although everyone has a good relationship, once they are on opposite sides on the battlefield, the most basic respect is to go all out.

But these three people still came over to make sure there was nothing wrong with his mental state, and they were obviously more concerned.

"Although I'm a little touched, this game... I really can't be lenient."

Li Luo whispered to himself.

the next day.

weekend.

The crowded competition venue was filled with huge banners and support lights belonging to the two teams.

The black and white colors of EDG have a somewhat chilling air, but the representative color of the thorn bird is very eye-catching.

Nearly 60% of the fans of the Thorn Birds came to the scene. It was obvious that the two consecutive defeats of the Thorn Birds before this had raised the hearts of the fans.

Most of the Thorn Birds fans who came to the scene looked quite serious.

Although... before the game, major commentators and e-sports media predicted that today's Thorn Birds would very likely lose to EDG. After all, there is a slight gap between the two teams in terms of hard power, and in terms of state, they are even more similar. One is going uphill, one is going downhill.

No matter from any angle, it is no small challenge for the Thorn Birds to win against EDG.

What's more, it's not the time for the Thorn Birds to play IG at the beginning of the season. At that time, everyone was unfamiliar with the version. For the audience, it was possible for either Thorn Birds or IG to win. The strength of the two teams at that time cannot be said. That's all the strength.

But now the spring split is halfway through.

Even cloud viewers who don't understand the game well can roughly understand the styles and specific strengths of both teams after experiencing some subtle experiences.

As the lights flickered, Guan Zeyuan and Wang Jiji appeared in the commentary box.

"Hello viewers, you are now watching the 2019 League of Legends Professional League Spring Split! Hello everyone, my name is Zeyuan."

"Hello everyone, I remember."

Wang Remember also followed up and said: "Today, Mr. Zeyuan and I will explain to everyone this exciting showdown in the e-sports Spring Festival Gala."

"Quie's."

Guan Zeyuan nodded slightly: "I think it is not an exaggeration to use the four words of e-sports Spring Festival Gala to describe today's game. The Thorn Birds and EDG, on the one hand, have Luo Ge as the core this year, and the other four An all-Chinese class established by local players.”

"On the other hand, there is Brother Luo's old club EDG. Although EDG's status was ups and downs at the beginning of the season, EDG's status has obviously been improving in a straight line recently."

"On the contrary, the Thorn Birds have relatively large fluctuations, so judging from the recent situation of both sides in this game, I will be more optimistic about EDG."

Guan Zeyuan's straightforward words caused an uproar at the scene.

"Fuck, stop it, Brother Guan."

"God spoke, and I started to panic."

"For me, the palms and backs of md's hands are full of flesh. Hey, this game is simply a torment for me who is a fan of both EDG and Thorn Birds."

"EDG has been in very good shape recently, and I hope the Thorn Birds can regain some form."

"No, I hope EDG can be so powerful, win the championship again, and maintain their invincible character in the country."

"Brother Luo YYDS, today I sit and watch Brother Luo beat my ex-Concubine Luo."

"To be honest, the combination of meiko and lwx is quite strong. If the Thorn Birds bottom lane is to play pure laning heroes, I don't doubt Brother Luo's strength, but if they still play the roaming style, I feel It’s impossible to win in the bottom lane.”

While the players on the barrage forum were talking about it, Guan Zeyuan perked up following the guide's prompts: "Okay, the results of the point roll here have come out. The Thorn Birds have priority in choosing sides, and they were the first to choose. Blue side! The BP between both sides has officially begun!"

I don’t know how long I’ll have to cough for a while, I feel like I’m going to have pneumonia.
