LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

"2-0! YM is one step away from entering the Bird's Nest!"

The audience in the audience could no longer control the surging emotions in their hearts, and they turned into shouts that lingered in the Oriental Sports Center!

Last year they witnessed YM fighting five fierce games over a towering mountain to win the championship. Now, the mountain that has blocked the LPL competition for several years is about to collapse!

The three commentators looked at each other and tried not to let their voices tremble too much with excitement, "What YM has to do now is very simple."

"Win one more game, just a small game!"

As long as game understanding is not involved, Wawa is definitely a qualified commentator. He was full of emotions and high spirits, "As I said again, in the League of Legends global finals, there has never been a situation where two people chased three!"

The audience's emotions had already been aroused by the exciting competition, and Wawa's words made them even more excited. The screams in the stands were even louder.

However, this sentence did not please the barrage.

[Stop breastfeeding, stop breastfeeding]

[This flag is set, if YM loses, the baby will be flushed! 】

[Guiding Doll Weibo @Xiangxiang QAQ, brothers, hurry up! 】

But after all, it was mainly about teasing. The originally chaotic barrage rhythm had long since disappeared. YM held the match point, and the audience was naturally relaxed.

The one who needs to be nervous is SKT, which has one foot out of the cliff.

"Shengxun, can you be more steady?" Kkoma, who was standing in the middle of the lounge, said softly to Huni.

Huni scratched his head optimistically. Although he played Yasuo in the last game and achieved a super ghost record of 0/8, he was not as frustrated as he imagined.

Because I am so happy.

But when he raised his head, he met the eyes of his head coach, and the waves were surging beneath the seemingly gentle surface.

Huni has no doubt that if it is not illegal, kkoma will break his hand and let emergency substitute untara play.

"I understand, I understand," Huni said hurriedly. He knew that if he continued to die like this, he would not be able to survive in the LCK after this game. "I will be stable."

Lee Sang Hyuk, who was sitting next to him, had piercing eyes, and his already dull face was even more cold and ruthless.

If he could pull his fingers out of his nostrils, he would look like a master.

For the first time in his five-year career, Faker was tired of playing the mid laner.

At the end of these two games, he just looked into KKoma's eyes and said, "Coach, I want to play top lane."

Kkoma glanced at the tactical notebook in his hand and said, "In the next game we..."

…

The three commentators at the scene were still talking non-stop to warm up the atmosphere.

"We can also see from the first two games that YM clearly wants to hit the road in this BO5, targeting Huni..."

As soon as Miller finished speaking, Wawa took over, "Yes, Huni can indeed be said to be the most unstable player in the SKT team. He can operate infinitely when the wind is going, but once the wind goes against him, it will be difficult to provide a positive effect to the team."

"And he's easy to catch," I remember holding back a laugh. "In these two games, he attracted YM to gank no less than 10 times, and he was killed quite a lot. Basically, he dared to catch and dared to die."

Many barrages also gained momentum and began to post words one after another.

[0/8 in the first game, 0/8 in the second game, this is already 16 deaths, not to mention breaking through Cuzz’s 20 deaths in the quarterfinals]

[Huni is just a pig-nosed guy. Does anyone really think he can carry YM? Do you have any brains? 】

[Not Carry anymore? I’ve given you two victories, what else do you want from me? 】

[This stupid young man is just a cash machine. He doesn’t think that the S game is really the abbreviation of the solo game, right? I only know how to play in the lane, and if the opponent dares to catch me, I will kill him, and I will make him drool.】

【I doubt who you are implying】

[Jin Gong: Isn’t this person afraid of my teammates? 】

This year, Wuhu Da Sima quickly rose to become the leading anchor of Dou Shark. Now all the barrages in major live broadcast rooms are his memes, which is really popular.

"Now SKT is on the verge of elimination. If they want to drag this game on, top laner Huni must step up!"

As soon as Wawa finished speaking, he received the information given by the director.

He was not surprised by this. "SKT chose to change the jungler in this game, with Blank replacing Peanut!"

[The jungler named B is here]

[Watching two games backstage, you went on the field with the kkoma tips bag to put out the fire, right? 】

[I wonder if Little Peanut’s performance in these two rounds was okay? What’s the point of changing to a jungler? 】

[I have already lost two games without changing the jungler. I am trying to be a living horse doctor. Why don’t I try changing the jungler? 】

…

In the YM lounge.

"Is Jin Gong the MVP of this game again?" Xiaotian glanced at the screen. In the makeup photo, Jin Gong crossed his hands and made an Ultra Light Wave gesture, looking like a fool.

9 kills, 1 death and 3 assists, damage accounted for 28.00%, injuries sustained accounted for 34.69%, and the opponent's economy was leading +4430.

The data is perfect.

Garlic Bastard frowned and muttered in a low voice, "I really vomited, and we fed the head into my mouth. If you can't carry it, go home and raise pigs."

In the early stage of this game, he used his matchup advantage to perfectly help the top and middle lines to relieve the pressure of line rights. He also made many gank raids to help his teammates build an advantage. He considered himself to be the best performer in this game, so he was naturally unhappy to miss out on the MVP.

Anyway, now that Jin Gong has gone to drain the water, you can't hear what he is saying, so you can scold him as much as you want.

"That's right," Jack leaned back on the e-sports chair with a arrogant and cool look on his face, "Isn't it me who made the greatest contribution in this round?"

In the mid-term, he repeatedly started fights physically, seducing his opponents into attacking him, and then died in battle and let his teammates eat all their heads.

Although he only had two goals and three assists in the end, he felt that the data could not record his great performance.

"Can this also be considered as your contribution?" Su Cheng narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Lin Ran, is there a Shiba Inu in the Paw Team?"

Lin Ran couldn't help laughing for a moment.

"But Brother Ran won very few MVPs this year," Xiaotian, who was originally very depressed, couldn't help but change his face when he thought of this, "I won't get the FMVP this time."

The gold content of the group stage is not very high. Counting from the knockout stage, the MVP of the quarterfinals against Longzhu is Liu Qingsong, and the MVP of the first two games of the semifinals against SKT is Jin Gong...

Lin Ran's performance is indeed not that impressive compared to his teammates, and he has very few MVPs. This has something to do with the version. The current mid laner's influence in the game is relatively weak; and the opponents he encountered in the knockout rounds were also very tough. The Korean league's new star BDD plus Faker are really difficult to play.

Lin Ran, who was about to discuss the next round's tactics with White Crescent Moon, turned around with a look of disdain on his face.

"Watching the FMVP finals, it doesn't matter how good you are in the past. I can come back in all three finals. Believe it or not, in the end, this honor will still be mine."

Xiaotian's expression froze.

The final... He thought of the two teams in the other half.

SSG and RNG, their mid laners are Crown and Cancellation.

Crown's performance this year has been quite low, and his style is a bit restrained by Lin Ran - he can't put pressure on the line, so he can only watch Lin Ran wander around and set the pace.

The account cancellation is similar, and the style is somewhat similar. Although his performance in the league this year is indeed good, the S game has always been unstable.

It can be said that Crown and Guanhu are worse than the opponents Lin Ran has encountered before.

In the professional arena, top performers are the team's breakthrough point. If you don't improve statistics on them, you will be sorry for yourself.

Xiaotian discovered Hua Dian when he thought of this. If YM entered the finals, wouldn't Lin Ran be able to ride on the opponent's mid laner to gain data?

It is not impossible to directly win the FMVP in a BO5.

The Shiba Inu rubbed his belly and purred, "Don't be ridiculous, the incense burner version MVP won't be given to Edici, right?"

"Haha, your dad doesn't need the help of the incense burner, can you see if your data can still reach the sky?" Liu Qingsong sarcastically said.

"YM is ready to play!" A staff member knocked on the lounge door.

Before leaving, Bai Yueyue was still mumbling something, flipping through her notebook and simulating the BP session.

A group of people walked through the dim entrance channel and lined up on the stage. The cameraman dutifully focused his lens on the players.

The audience who were still taking a break after the excitement saw the five YM players appearing on the big screen again, and excitedly waved their light sticks. Many die-hard fans also carried banners of support, hoping to let the players see their feelings. .

Lin Ran, who had already won two games, was in a good mood. He raised a smile and waved to the stands around him, and received a lot of screams from the audience.

There was no need to adjust the equipment during the game, so the YM players sat on chairs and joked among themselves.

On the other side of the SKT player bench, the atmosphere was particularly solemn.

Xiao Hei, who had just played, was still logging in to his account to debug runes, so KKoma took the time to communicate with him.

His blackness was comparable to that of King Ning, who was famous for his milky skin. At this time, his black face was filled with nervousness.

Blank knew that he was carrying a heavy burden on his shoulders, so naturally he couldn't talk and laugh at this moment.

Although he is also a jungler with the surname B, he also knows very well that he does not have the big heart of a stupid chicken. At best, he can only perform the tasks assigned to him by kkoma.

The deciding game of the semi-finals comes to put out the fire. Most people cannot bear the psychological pressure.

kkoma also knew that he put a lot of pressure on Xiao Hei, but the situation was urgent at this time, so he could only pat his shoulder to comfort him.

Replacing Xiaohei is a helpless move.

In fact, Little Peanut's performance in these two games was not bad, much better than when he sank in the LCK Summer Split.

In the decisive game, Xiaohua was asked to go down to look at the water dispenser. KKoma knew that the players would also have opinions on him.

But he must do it.

A fatal problem with little peanuts is that they easily get sick.

The first half of the last game was quite normal, but after YM dragged the game into a chaotic rhythm, Xiao Peanut began to frequently rush into the formation and attack.

This style of play is not impossible, but teammates cannot keep up.

Only he and huni were fighting with YM throughout the whole process, and they lost after fighting in the end.

KKoma was afraid that Little Peanut would be sent away with huni again in this game, so he quickly replaced him.

He couldn't care about Xiaohuatuan's emotions anymore, and he would admit it even if he had to leave next year.

In front of the champion, KKoma's wrist has always been iron-blooded.

Lee Sang Hyuk, who was sitting in the middle, closed his eyes tightly, leaned his body back and rested his head on the chair pillow, taking deep breaths.

The cameraman captured the scene and filmed it with his machine.

【What are you doing? 】

【Please God! 】

[Don’t be embarrassed, faker passed away peacefully]

At this time, Lee Sang Hyuk got the signal from the referee behind him to start the game.

He opened his eyes and sat up straight, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

He would never fall down in a place like this!

Although there has never been a situation where two teams chased three players in the World Championship, records are created by people. Only this summer did they allow two teams to chase three KT in the LCK playoffs. Everything is not impossible!

"SKT has the priority to choose sides in this game. After they got the blue side, they banned Kennen!"

Jin Gong found Calista's location with ease and banned her.

The second ban position, kkoma, was given to the prince, while White Crescent blocked Jace as usual.

"The last ban position in the first round..." I remember looking at the BP panels on both sides of the screen, "SKT did not dismantle Xia Luo, but banned Galio!"

"It's quite novel that the prince and Galio have all been sealed off." Miller also felt a little surprised.

This is exactly the same as White Crescent's idea of ​​​​playing the game. KKoma learned quickly and used the other's methods to repay the other.

"YM chose to ban Luo..." Wawa couldn't understand the deeper content of BP, so he analyzed the superficial things, "It seems that he is still very afraid of Wolf. Although SKT lost the last game, Luo's few... Both groups are very exciting.”

kkoma pinched the bridge of his nose and stood behind bang to discuss ADC selection.

Phoenix Legend still has Xayah left, and Verus, who the Korean division team attaches great importance to, is also outside. If nothing else, they will definitely be on the same side as YM.

When these two heroes are taken individually, their priorities are not much different, so there is no need for KKoma to choose them first.

But it’s also a good idea to take this opportunity to discuss the next options with your teammates, so as to leave free time for subsequent BP operations.

Bang bit his lip and looked at the screen, the Rolex on his wrist shining dazzlingly under the stage lights.

Unlike backgammon, there is no big problem with his hero pool. Xia Xia has naturally been practiced as a regular choice. In the summer split, his Xia Xia has a 100% winning rate in 7 games.

It is necessary to take it out on such occasions.

kkoma was not surprised when he heard the answer from his ADC. He had no inclination in his heart. After all, using grab instead of ban would be of no use to Jack.

Shooters such as Xia Xia and Verus are in his hero pool. With the adapted hero pool and his increasingly sophisticated game experience, Jack’s current strength is not as good as that of Bang who doesn’t meditate, but he won’t be messed up like in last year’s finals. So embarrassing.

"SKT's first pick gets the wine barrel!" I remember nodding to myself, "Get a good hero for Blank first, so that Xiaotian's hero pool can be blocked."

Miller also said, "Without the prince, the early jungle field of Wine Barrel will be quite strong. In the current version, only one excavator will have an advantage in the early stage."

"Verus + Gnar, YM will select the remaining strong characters outside first. The three key rhythm points of Nakano Fu have not yet been decided. The choice will be given to SKT!"

With this Gnar locked, it was SKT's turn to select someone, and the barrage started again.

[Yasuo Yasuo Yasuo! 】

[Brother Huni, I want to see Yasuo, is it okay? 】

[Although the last game was amazing, SKT lost to Huni but not to Huni. After all, Shuangfeng succeeded]

This time Huni chewed the gum without saying a word and let kkoma arrange it.

"How about Shen, as long as you can withstand pressure." Leehom suggested from the side.

"彳亍." Huni promised, but deliberately prolonged his tone, and his emotions almost overflowed.

A person like Kkoma could naturally hear it, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Top laner is the most mentally mature position among professional players in the world. After all, he was an orphan in the early stage. If the cannon truck was not missed, the director would not give the top lane shot. He could only watch the three brothers Nakano Suke and lead the rhythm everywhere. You also have to carry the sky in the mid-to-late team battles and protect the youngest son ADC who is most prone to explosive mentality.

He has led SKT's top laners in every session, including Impact, Marin, Duke... They are all stable and can be regarded as the anchor of stability in the team, but Huni is definitely a strange flower.

Kkoma squeezed the top laner's shoulder hard, trying to pass on his strength to him.

SKT's first round lineup was selected with Jiutong, Shen and Xia, while YM added Zhu Mei at the end of the first round.

"Both teams have selected heroes for the top jungle and ADC positions," Miller frowned. "The midfielder and supporter have not been selected at all. They both want to put the key rhythm points of this version into the last selection."

The originally hot Xian Luo soft assistant has now received a cold reception, and no one wants to pick it first. After all, the scene where the soft assistant was countered by the hard assistant before and could only watch the opponent roam to support is still vivid in my mind.

White Crescent wants to push this rhythm point selection as far back as possible, which coincides with KKoma.

No matter how both sides choose, they will always have a counter position - for example, if the red side YM gives Lin Ran a hero first, then the mid laner will be countered by SKT, and the support will have the advantage of picking later.

Seems pretty fair.

In the second round, the BPs of both sides also targeted the strong mid-support heroes that were not selected. White Crescent banned Ryze and Syndra, which Faker is good at; while kkoma banned Rock Bird and Leona.

"The red square chooses Thresh!" The doll's tone revealed a bit of joy, "This is also Liu Qingsong's signature hero!"

The corners of Kkoma's mouth raised slightly.

"Karma and... Tam!" The commentator's exclamation reached the ears of countless terminal viewers through the receiver.

Then there seemed to be an echo in the vast venue, and there were also bursts of exclamations in the stands around the scene!

"4 guarantees 1! SKT's unique ability to press the bottom of the box!" Miller was quite surprised by this. "They are going to put a lot of money on Bang!"

The Korean commentary box cheered.

"Junzhi!" Quan Yongyun made a familiar excited voice, "This round of SKT will be left to you!"

Madlife also laughed, "I believe Junzhi will not let us down. His late output ability is unmatched."

This is SKT's unique skill to keep the bottom of the box. In the 2015 and 2016 mid-season tournaments, they used 4 guarantees and 1, allowing bang to take over the game in the later stages.

If faker is SKT's brightest and most eye-catching sword, bang is the heavy sword that is both ingenious and inconspicuous. Although it looks inconspicuous, it is definitely worthy of the team's trust.

Teams with peak bang never have to worry about lack of output in the later stage. This kind of ADC with full output is definitely worth 4 guarantees and 1.

[Hey, SKT’s most stable lineup is here]

[It is recommended that some teams take a good look at it and learn from it. What is 4 guarantees 1? 】

[My DNA has been moved. Back then, 4 guarantees and 1 Lucian bang was really disgusting! 】

[Damn it, how can YM kill Xia with this lineup? 】

This is indeed an issue that White Crescent Moon is discussing with the team members. Gnar's entry conditions are too harsh. Pig Girl and Verus's R [Corruption Chain] cannot threaten Xayah with R [Storm Feather Blade], and Hammer Shi's hook was also restrained by Tahm.

Although Xayah has short hands, relying on the linkage of her skill sets and high area damage, her abilities in the later stages are surprisingly strong.

Although Verus is not bad, it is not realistic for YM's lineup to play 4 guarantees and 1 guarantee.

With Gnar and Thresh here, and then choosing Lulu mid laner, the lineup's ability to protect the back row is incomparable to SKT.

YM either pinned SKT to death in the early and mid-term, or looked for a breakthrough in the later stage to kill Xia instantly.

Otherwise, you have to wait for the feathers in the sky to harvest the battle.

Lin Ran flicked through the hero interface, trying to find a breaking point.

But it's too difficult. Taking out AD assassins will turn them into a chopper team. AP assassins rely on skills, and the damage burst is slower, so they can easily be swallowed by Tam to protect them.

The AP assassin with the fastest damage burst, Enchantress, has been modified to be neither fish nor fowl in this version. When it was first revised, it was very strong and could increase the number of troops and kills. However, as soon as the basic value was adjusted, no one cared about it.

The five YM players and the coach were all thinking about how to deal with SKT's lineup, and the team was completely silent.

"Is grasshopper okay?" Lin Ran let out a long breath and managed to come up with an alternative before the countdown ended.

"If there is mercury on the other side, we will also..." White Crescent felt a bit inappropriate, but he couldn't find any better choice.

Lin Ran watched Liu Qingsong looking for a hero, and turned sideways to communicate with his teammates and coaches, "Let's beat the time difference. Follow my rhythm and give it a try."

They had previously studied the extreme 4-guaranteed 1 that SKT was good at, but this Tahm Kench completely disrupted YM's arrangement.

Thresh, which Liu Qingsong played first, was almost useless online, and it was difficult to pose much of a threat to the SKT duo when paired with the jungler.

In this case, he can only play and wander.

"It's okay, don't be too nervous," Bai Yueya wiped the sweat from his forehead, "If it doesn't work, we still have the fourth game, and we can get the blue square by then."

Jack kept shaking his legs, "I don't think you guys are nervous at all, but you are blushing like a Uzi for nothing."

Bai Yueya sneered twice, took off his earphones and shook hands with KKoma.

The camera lens focused on the hands of the two coaches, and then slowly zoomed out, and the director took the opportunity to give the lineup of both sides.

Blue side SKT: top laner Shen, jungle jungler Barrel, mid laner Karma, bottom lane Xia + Tahm.

Red square YM: top laner Gnar, hunting wild boar girl, mid laner Malzahar, bottom lane Verus + Thresh.

"Tahm brought purification, and Xayah brought healing," Miller calmed down his excitement after taking a deep breath. "This way, the life-saving ability is quite strong, and Tahm is not afraid of Thresh and Zhumei directly shooting him. "

The three commentators looked at each other.

In this game, SKT's iron-barrel formation Baoxia looked really difficult to handle.

Forget it if it were another team. Bang’s output ability is obvious to all. Originally, he was an unsolvable output machine in the shadow of Faker. This time, the whole team created a teamfight survival environment for him, and the damage he caused was absolutely terrifying. number.

However, they didn't say it out loud, and the doll even made a joke about which bug skin in Malzahar looked better.

At the LCK commentary desk, which was only a few dozen meters away from them, Madlife, who was the soul and core of the AZF and CJE teams back then, was still analyzing the lineup.

"YM's lineup looks pretty good," his opinion was different from the LPL commentary. "The key is to control the rhythm."

"After level 6, Grasshopper's ability to catch people, coupled with Thresh's wandering, will pose a huge threat to SKT."

He put forward his own opinion, "Although Tahm has a big move and can provide half-sphere support, Wolf doesn't dare to leave Bang. After all, once he leaves, if YM seizes the opportunity, he will have to make a big move."

"It's unrealistic to bring Xayah with us for support. Once we don't get kills, we will lose a lot of troops. As SKT's only output position, Xayah's economy must not be bad."

"In this case, the opportunity for YM to drive the rhythm is created," madlife adjusted his glasses, "In my opinion, the focus in the early and mid-term of this game is in the middle. Can Sang Hyuk limit Ran's roaming support to It’s important.”

At this moment, the audience put aside their analysis of the strength of both sides' lineups and concentrated on cheering for the team they supported!

The already high atmosphere in the Oriental Sports Center was once again ignited. Wave after wave of sound surged, wrapping all the noise together and smashing against the stadium wall like a stormy wave crashing onto the shore!

Since the beginning of this year, the Bird's Nest has been on the minds of countless domestic audiences, looking forward to seeing teams from their own divisions in this iconic national stadium.

Now, YM is only one step away from this goal!

Amid the shouts and din, Summoner's Rift descended, and ten heroes from both sides appeared in the spring!
