LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

"Welcome back to the Bird's Nest finals of the 2017 League of Legends Global Finals..."

The home team won two games in a row, and Wawa's expression became more relaxed, and his body was no longer as rigid as in the first two games. He stood in the commentary box and talked, telling the audience about YM's glorious history over the past year.

Two palms were waving in the air, as if they were playing an accordion.

No one knows YM better than me!

Lin Mingdong, who was wearing his son's team uniform in the infield, breathed a sigh of relief. Even if he didn't understand the game, the YM2:0SSG score on the big screen reminded him that the probability of Samsung's comeback was very low.

He knew what it meant to Lin Ran to hold the finals in a venue like the Bird's Nest. It was his first time to watch a child compete, and Lin Mingdong didn't want to spoil his interest.

When more than 50,000 spectators in the stands on three sides saw the contestants emerging from the backstage passage, they gathered together with uncontrollable screams and swept the entire venue!

Although the contestants were not exposed on the stage for a long time and returned to their respective soundproof rooms immediately after leaving the backstage passage, this did not affect the enthusiasm of the audience!

There was no way, Samsung was too impatient to be beaten. The total match lasted less than an hour, and it was already knocked down by YM's two bastard punches.

Due to the existence of Damai.com, many spectators spent a lot of money to buy tickets from scalpers. The game went so fast, and they had nowhere to vent their passion, so they could only roar loudly.

Lin Ran and his teammates sat in a soundproof room, wearing headphones for double insurance to block the loud shouts of the audience in the stands.

"Brother Xiba, the curse is going to be broken today." Lin Ran shook the warm baby in his hand, waiting for the heat to warm his palms, and joked.

Jin Gong snorted coldly, his tone full of defiance, "Head An also claims to kill every three-star traitor with one blow? I will kill every CJ traitor with one blow, and I will help them clean up the house today!"

"CJ is about to be defeated," Lin Ran said happily, "This is considered to have triggered the deathrattle effect, right?"

In the 2016 Summer Split, An’s old club, CJ, known as the Whampoa of Korean e-sports, was swept out of the promotion and relegation rounds. Shy, Haru, BDD, Kramer, and Madlife were actually reduced to playing in the secondary leagues and were not allowed to compete. Don't let people lament the impermanence of time.

Then in the spring and summer split of 2017, they failed to successfully attack the LCK twice in a row. If they were to switch to the LPL, it would be similar to WE being relegated to the LSPL league and not climbing up for a whole year. You can imagine how outrageous it is.

All the fans have left long ago, and the only ones left are pure die-hards. Both the team's performance and commercial value of CJ have plummeted, and it is inevitable that the group will abandon this club.

Jin Gong laughed, "That's right, that's right, the last push before CJ is disbanded, let me send Ambition out of S7 with my own hands!"

At this time, the referee behind them informed them to get ready.

In this game, Cuvee on the blue side was selected to start the game, and the originally plain custom room turned into a battle between two armies!

"SSG chooses the blue side in this round, press Xayah first!"

After White Crescent blocked Kalista, Edgar backhandedly banned the troll.

"Eh? Are you trying to respect the troll chosen by Yishou Xiaoyao in the last round?" The doll who noticed this beamed with joy.

Miller pondered for two seconds and explained, "The main reason is that it is really difficult to solve. The strength of the troll jungle in the early stage is much stronger than the wine barrel, prince and pig girl that are popular in the current version; in the mid-term, incense burners can also be made, which can give ADC provides strong support and protection.”

"And with the introduction of the Incense Burner, the Trolls can also play their role in team battles. R [Power Supremacy] absorbs health points and double resistance. Even a tank like the Big Bug is as brittle as a piece of paper when equipped with a big move in a team battle. .”

This kind of BO5 is about who has more cards, because it is difficult to perfectly deal with the opponent's ultimate move on the spot.

Each unsolvable hole card will increase the difficulty for the opponent's BP.

"YM's second ban slot was given to Malzahar as usual. They didn't want to release this hero at all, taking advantage of Crown's poor laning strength!"

Crown looked helpless. As a Christian, he could only pray to God to bless him.

"Although the tactical core of all professional teams in the Incense Burner version is more focused on the bottom lane ADC, while the middle lane is dominated by tool players, but I still have to say..."

Miller seemed to have been infected with the accordion virus by the baby, waving his hands in mid-air, "This is the biggest gap in the mid lane I have ever seen in a finals, even bigger than the gap between us and the Korean mid laner in S3 and S4." Be big.”

"In those two years..." I remember hesitating for two seconds, "It was mainly because we were far behind in all aspects and could not see any hope of victory. Relatively speaking, the performance of the mid laner was not that bad."

"Now that the tide is turning, who will be spared?" Wawa was very proud. "Now it is LCK's turn to think about how to restrict this YM team. Not to mention more, today's finals must at least make Crown understand. "

In the last ban position of the first round, Edgar thought for a long time and decided to ban the Demacia prince.

He did not restrict Lulu and Karma in this game because it was not necessary.

In the first game of the finals, he banned these two incense burner monsters who could both hit and assist. However, Lin Ran made it clear that he did not want to choose these two heroes who mainly mixed lanes. His goal was to defeat the Crown in the matchup. .

In the second game, they tried to get Lulu for Crown, so that he could at least gain a foothold in the middle, but it turned out to be useless. He sleepwalked throughout the game to no avail, and just watched Lin Ranyou walking up and down to lead the rhythm.

During this period, Edgar thought for a long time in the team lounge and roughly understood what the problem was.

There is a clear gap in the laning strength between the two sides, especially in the handling of details.

Even if Lin Ran faces Lulu with a hero like Fox, he can still hit the level node and use his hero's short period of strength to control the lane. Once he takes advantage and starts radiating into the jungle, Lulu's hero will be completely useless. .

Purple Garlic cannot leave the line. Being squatted by the fox is a set of skills, and there is even a risk of being killed alone.

Lin Ran's several moves in the last game were all based on this situation. As a result, Crown felt like he was suffering from PTSD in the grass and did not dare to go in for fear of a fox emerging from inside.

In this way, Crown can only be used as a land-bending spirit in the middle, and the economy accumulated by relying solely on recruiting troops cannot catch up with Lin Ran, who has made money by killing people.

Then there is a vicious cycle. After there is an economic gap in the matchup, the intensity of the mid lane matchup becomes increasingly unbalanced, and then Crown becomes even more afraid to leave the lane.

Once the middle lane explodes, the jungle area leader An will also suffer; if the leader An suffers, the upper and lower side lanes will also have a hard time.

However, before the start of the third game, Edgar thought of another hero, which could perfectly solve the dilemma faced by Crown and not dare to support.

"YM's last ban slot was given to Gnar!" I remember exclaiming, "They released Galio again!"

Edgar, wearing a crisp suit, frowned and paced back and forth behind the players, thinking about solutions to the problem.

The opponent obviously wants them to choose between Kenan and Galio.

The key to the problem is that even if Crown gets Galio, it will be difficult to mix - because YM can choose AP Kennen and pair it with a shooter mid laner.

Whether it is Lucian or Pao, what awaits the crown is endless torture.

"Take Kenan, at least you can have an advantage on the road." Edgar finally made his decision.

After all, the remaining top lane heroes outside will be suppressed by Kennen.

"Should I go solo in this game, or should I use my equipment and play in a team?" Cuvee asked, taking a sip of water from his cup.

"Let's take a look at the opponent's lineup..." Edgar stared at the opponent's hero selection box.

As expected, Galio + Verus.

He was very sure that this hero would be given to Liu Qingsong in the support position. Lin Ran would definitely not choose such a stable hero in this final.

"Take the small cannon first, and then... choose the pig girl," he patted his bot laner's shoulder, "Bring purification, and you guys must be careful not to get kicked in the bot lane."

Emperor Chi knows how disgusting his opponent Galio is, so he won't take it lightly.

"YM got the wine barrel as the last choice, but we still have to ensure the stability of the jungle confrontation!" Miller's voice echoed over the Bird's Nest.

"The problem is that the wine barrel doesn't go well with Galio..." Wawa had his own understanding. "Once Galio controls the opponent, the wine barrel's ultimate move is likely to blow up the three-star formation."

"This is not bad at all," Miller explained. "This skill can be used to protect the back row. If anyone comes forward, he will be blown away."

In the second round of BP, White Crescent sent both Luo and Feng Nu to the ban position, leaving Corejj with not many options for the auxiliary position.

Edgar, on the other hand, blocked Lin Ran's outstanding performance in the previous game, and then disabled Shen, a high-quality top lane single player, to protect Cuvee's laning advantage.

"Qinggang Shadow? It's difficult to fight Kennen in the lane..." I remember looking at YM's fourth choice hero and I was a little worried, but then it was replaced by Big Insect.

"It's better to be steady," Miller frowned. "Gongzi brother doesn't have to take on too many single-player tasks in this final. He needs to have enough frankness and control in team battles."

"The main reason is that Cuvee develops very well every time, but when he leaves the laning period, all four teammates basically collapse. If he leads alone, once the three stars are forced to open, it will be all over." I remember thinking of the happy things, and my tone was full of joy. A bit happy, "Who can withstand this?"

Fortunately, Zeyuan was not in the commentary box, otherwise he would have been smiling.

"You give him a choice, Zaihe," Edgar said to Emperor Chi, then slapped Crown's shoulder hard, "Be more steady and don't make mistakes, do you understand?"

Crown looked solemn, crossed his arms and leaned back on the chair, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.

【What's the meaning? This scene seems familiar]

[Isn’t this Faker’s classic move in the semifinals? 】

[I thought that Lee Sang Hyuk was beaten violently after doing this action. I didn’t expect that Crown would dare to repeat it]

"Ryze!" Miller lamented, "We can't continue to mess around. Crown can only use this kind of hero to try to support!"

This is the answer given by Edgar.

You don’t have lane rights in the middle and dare not enter the jungle? Damn it, choose Ryze, and rely on the time travel of R [Warp Jump] to support teammates without entering the jungle.

There was also a burst of emotion from the LCK commentary box on the other side.

"...Ryze is also okay. In this version, he can use the Time Staff + Seraph, which has a good shield and health bonus. This way, combined with his own passive shield, it is difficult to be killed alone."

Deft felt that he was already thinking about his old club Samsung. After watching the first two games, when he saw Crown picking Ryze, his first reaction was to analyze how low the possibility of Ryze being single-killed by his opponent was.

He saw that corejj chose Lulu, "Then the question is now before Ran, what will he choose to face Ryze?"

YM's answer was very quick. Liu Qingsong's selection box lit up Karma for two seconds, and then immediately locked another hero!

My poison has no antidote!

Snake girl!

The appearance of this not-so-popular hero once again made the audience burst into cheers!

Due to the weakening of R+Golden Body, Ryze's appearance rate in the global finals version was not high, and Snake Girl was also left out; and the powerful incense burner will inevitably make the traditional mage lose its original dominance in the middle.

Because there is no output method in the league that is more reliable than basic attack. Between traditional mages and ADCs, professional teams will naturally choose the latter.

Heroes such as Galio, Malzahar, and Rockbird that are popular in the current version all have special functional value of protection or support. Syndra can provide a single-point instant kill ability, and Ryze has a split push.

Snake Girl has nothing, just a mediocre magic machine gun, and it is inevitable that she will not be favored in the professional arena.

"Cassiopeia!" The Roaring Emperor said in a loud voice, "This is also Ryze's counter position in the traditional sense!"

"Actually... this version of Ryze is not as difficult to beat as expected," Mr. Dai was as shy as ever, "mainly because Ryze has a shield overload, plus the W [Rune Confinement] in the 7.18 version. The damage has been enhanced, and you won’t suffer a lot if you exchange blood.”

"Of course, you can't beat Snake Girl head-on. 55 is unrealistic."

[Syndra, Ahri, Snake Girl, are the heroes that Brother Ran won in these three games really the S7 World Championship? 】

[After not playing Galio and Grasshopper, isn’t the middle lane too interesting to watch? 】

[Ordering and killing in the middle of the plate, it will definitely be full of viewing pleasure]

[You only care about having fun, no one considers the feelings of the crown? 】

[Instead of caring about the crown, I might as well choose a champion skin]

The lineups of both sides are settled.

Blue side SSG: top laner Kennen, hunting wild boar girl, mid laner Ryze, bottom lane cannon + assistant Lulu;

Red square YM: top laner Big Bug, jungler Barrel, mid laner Snake Girl, bottom lane Verus + Galio.

"The third round of the S7 World Championship finals is about to begin!" Miller also exaggerated the atmosphere in the commentary box. "If YM wins this round, they will be crowned the king again!"

"Yes, there is not much time left for Samsung!" The doll was even more swollen.

"Whether YM can create history and achieve a unique S-match victory in the history of League of Legends depends on this game!"

The audience in the stands spontaneously set off a wave of people, the ups and downs were carried by the rustling autumn wind, and the cheers in the sky were mixed in, and the momentum was like thunder!

"Be sure to be steady..." Bai Yueya did not forget to warn before leaving, "Xiaotian, remember to watch the dragon in the early stage. If there is a right to the middle and bottom, take it as soon as possible."

"I'm waiting for your good news in the lounge."

BSYY squeezed the shoulders of the five players in turn, as if to give them strength.

The system prompt for loading Summoner's Rift sounded. Lin Ran put down the warm baby in his hand, bought the corruption potion and left the spring.

"Double C on both sides of this game are all equipped with purification. The main reason is that there are too many hard controls. Using a control reduction skill can also give me a little more room to operate."

Wawa was yelling at the side, talking about other topics, "The snake girl beats Ryze in the middle, this is like Suzhen beating Fahai!"

"Uh..." I remember being stunned for a moment. What I was about to say was blocked back, and I didn't know how to answer it.

Miller laughed twice as if nothing had happened, so as not to embarrass his two partners too much.

"We noticed that Kennan led this game with thunder instead of war zeal..."

I remember hearing Miller's words and immediately responded, "Yes, this should be AP Kenan!"

"Cuvee also realizes that it is difficult for him to help the team win by relying on a single lead, so he might as well try to join a team," Miller continued, "And as long as the mid laner Crown develops, he can also provide a good wing lead for Samsung. Line ability!”

In this game, the level 1 positions of both sides were extremely stable. Although the YM1 level regiment had a strong lineup, they on the red side did not try to invade. Both sides stood firmly in a long snake formation until the handover of troops.

Lin Ran took two deep breaths and controlled the snake girl to wag her tail to the middle.

He also knows that YM has tied SKT's 14-game winning streak record set in 2015, and that he is only a small step away from winning the unprecedented world championship.

Lin Ran didn't want to make any mistakes.

Level 1 groups with some big variables were naturally not within his scope of consideration.

All the small goals before the World Championships have been achieved, and now he has seen the end of this marathon!

He won't let up when he's close!

The author transformed into Kafka. Kavinka is so powerful. I just figured out how to play the third game. I will release a big chapter tomorrow.
