LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

Lin Ran took off his headphones with an expressionless expression and glanced at the post-match data panel.

Because he was frequently targeted, he was forced to combine Zhonya's Hourglass and the Boots of Clarity. Although his life-saving ability was very strong, the damage was very low.

Not only was his output in this game not as high as Jack's, he was even overtaken by Xiaoyao, and was only about the same as Jin Gong's sheep uncle Orn.

Jack couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene, "Hahahaha, Brother Ran, are you going to have this day too?"

"Why is it so bad to play Zoe?"

This mean look made Lin Ran, who was already suffocating, unable to hold back for a moment. He pinched the back of Jack Destiny's neck with his palms. He took full advantage of the half-head height difference between the two.

"I was wrong, I was wrong!" Shiba Inu immediately admitted.

Lin Ran didn't say anything more. After letting go of Jack, he picked up his paper cup and walked backstage.

Before leaving, he turned around and gouged out the FNC players on the other side of the stage, trying to make a vicious expression to scare his opponents.

But unfortunately, FNC's exit channel was in the opposite direction to YM's. Lin Ran could only stare at Caps' slightly hunched back.

Just by looking at his posture, he could feel the other person's frustration and despair.

After frantically grabbing the opponent's mid laner throughout the game, not only did he get nothing, but he even got himself involved, and everyone would have a mental breakdown.

Lin Ran sneered and put MSI's shirt on his body with one hand.

The golden dragon wrapped in the LPL division logo was projected onto the big screen of the Zenith Stadium by the camera, once again arousing cheers from the YM fans at the scene!

Three commentators from the LPL division are still commenting on the game.

"Brother Ran, this is a real monster," Zeyuan was convinced, "Can you survive being caught like this?!"

Zhuo Ding looked unsurprised, "This is Brother Ran's basic operation, mainly because the opponent is FNC, so it looks very exaggerated."

He studied with Lin Ran for half a year. Although Knight was still at YMA at the time, due to a special relationship, he could easily obtain Lin Ran's first-person video.

In addition, Zhuo Ding ran upstairs to ask his elder brother for advice when he had nothing to do, and stood behind Lin Ran like a follower. We often see outrageous actions like today.

To him, this was nothing unusual.

At this time, the director also gave the candidate for the MVP of this game.

In the makeup photo, Lin Ran is wearing YM's black and red team uniform. His right hand is extended with the palm of his hand downwards like a claw, and his face is cold and ruthless.

The vast majority of people watching the game in the live broadcast room felt nothing, but the live audience watching the game at the Zenith Stadium had a completely different experience.

Lin Ran's makeup photo on the big screen was enlarged countless times, and in order to allow everyone in the stands to see the game, the screen was hung relatively high.

The audience sitting in the front row looked up, feeling suffocated, and the huge right hand that was clenched into a claw seemed to be pressed down.

The feeling of despair and helplessness that only showed signs of dissipating after the game came back again. FNC fans were so disheartened that they slumped in their seats. The arrogant energy at the start of the game had long disappeared.

How to win?

Zeyuan's focus was not on Lin Ran's makeup photos, but on data.

"5 kills, 0 deaths, 10 assists, a KDA of 15, 20.2% output ratio, 87.5% team participation rate..." When he saw the last data, he was shocked, "What is this?"

Remember to tell him this statistic, "33.4% injury rate, which is the first among the 10 players in the game!"

"This is Zoe!" Zeyuan said in an exaggerated tone, "This damage tolerance is stronger than that of the front row!"

[Tank Zoe is really fierce]

[Is this what happens if you are caught? FNC also helped Ran Ge brush up his data, he was so kind! 】

[Zoe suffered more injuries than Ornn, which is really outrageous]

[It’s a pity that I couldn’t kill 3 more, otherwise I would have been immortal and super awesome]

【What a pity, what a pity】

The barrage took advantage of the break to make jokes and taunts, while Lin Ran, who returned to the team lounge, was still struggling with the last game.

"What should I use in the next game?" Lin Ran wanted to take revenge and give FNC some color.

Otherwise, the other side would really treat him as a soft persimmon?

Hongmi was also a professional player before, so he could understand Lin Ran's feelings. Being attacked over and over again by the whole team made him feel angry.

"We have the right to choose sides in the next game. How about giving you a counter position on the red side?" he suggested.

Lin Ran hesitated after hearing the coach's words, "Take the initiative to choose the red side... won't it affect the team?"

"It's okay," Hongmi reassured him, "Anyway, we have to ban Ezreal no matter whether we are on the red side or the blue side. In fact, the difference is not big."

Jack was very dissatisfied after hearing what the translator said, "Why are you whipping me to death again? Brother EZ is very strong now, right?"

After Hongmi's custom training, the Shiba Inu's little yellow-haired proficiency has grown rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Now he wants to quickly use Ezreal to wash away everyone's stereotypes of him.

Hongmi ignored Jack at all, but walked up behind Lin Ran, put her palms on his shoulders diligently, and helped to knead and relax him. Her movements were very skillful and she had obviously practiced.

"Don't worry about other things, I'll leave all the next stage to you." Hongmi encouraged.

In his opinion, Lin Ran had already made considerable sacrifices for the team in this semi-final.

The Dragon King chosen in the first game was basically Xiaoyao's thug, responsible for rushing to the battlefield as soon as possible to provide output and control. He even sold himself to attract firepower in the last wave of team battles and scored a five-kill for Garlic Bastard.

Zoe, who was obtained in the second game, was suppressed by small artillery and was repeatedly attacked by FNC groups. She could only do Zhongya first and run away to save her life the whole time. In this way, Jack in the bottom lane and the boys in the jungle were liberated. , the two took over the game in the middle of the game at will.

If the blue side were to let the mid laner get countered in the third set, Redmi would feel guilty.

There is no such thing as bullying.

Although it is said that with great power comes greater responsibility, you still have to let people take a breather to vent, otherwise they will really become tool people.

"Listen to Hongmi and just use the counter position to smash the opponent to pieces!" Xiaoyao also agreed with the coach's statement. In these two games, it was the male spearman and Qian Jue. It was already fun, and he planned to sacrifice for the mid laner. In one round, the game revolved around Lin Ran.

"That is, let the opponent see what the world's number one mid laner is?" Liu Qingsong said this with an international back-up.

After Lin Ran listened to everyone's words, he pondered for two seconds before speaking.

"walk slowly."

…

When YM took the stage again, not only were there no boos, but thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

There are YM supporters among them, but most of them are Europeans wearing FNC uniforms.

If the defeat in the first game can still arouse their inner passion, then in the last game, Zoe, who ran away with Lin Ran full of pictures and was immortal, was like a basin of cold water pouring down, making FNC fans feel like they fell into an ice cave.

After losing two games in a row, they could only force themselves to recognize the huge gap between the two teams. If they want to advance to the finals, FNC needs to win three games in a row.

Is this realistic? Very blue.

FNC is strong, but not strong enough to threaten YM.

The defeated Europeans no longer begrudge their applause at this moment, welcoming this team from the mysterious East.

Lin Ran placed the paper cup with the MSI logo between the keyboard and the monitor, then took off his Conquest jacket and draped it on the back of the gaming chair.

The entire action was completed meticulously amidst the cheers from the audience, but Lin Ran's stern expression did not ease at all.

late.

What did you do early?

Caps is doomed in this game, even Jesus can't save him!

As soon as Lin Ran sat down, he saw FNC players and coaches walking in from the entrance passage on the other side. He immediately turned around and used his death glare.

Caps was still talking to youngbuck, his expression quite relaxed, completely opposite to the depressed look he had when he left the stage.

He was just about to put the paper cup with iced coffee on the table when he looked up and saw Lin Ran glaring mercilessly at him.

Caps panicked, and the painful memories that had just sunk into his heart resurfaced again.

Every scene in his memory was of him using the small cannon R [Destruction Shot] to save Lin Ran.

terrible.

He involuntarily took a step back and bumped into his own jungler's body.

Even though the broxah paper cup was held tightly, a little of the ice water in it was spilled.

Moreover, the tall broxah was a head taller than Caps, and the position he held the paper cup was almost close to Caps' head. As a result, the exposed ice water flowed down the back collar of Caps.

The ice water went from the back of his neck all the way down his spine. Caps was so cold that he shivered, his eyes widened and the wrinkles on his forehead appeared again.

Since Caps' head was about the same size as Jack's, covering the entire process of him touching the broxah paper cup, Lin Ran had no idea what was going on.

Just seeing his opponent's trembling reaction, Lin Ran was very satisfied and felt that he was famous.

"Are you okay?" the referee asked Caps in a low voice.

"It's okay, it's okay." He took a tissue and wiped it a little. He was relieved when he saw that Lin Ran didn't stare at him anymore.

…

"Welcome back to the live broadcast of the MSI semifinals. Currently, YM has three match points!"

As the representative team from his own division gained an advantage, Zeyuan's voice became much louder, "FNC has been forced into a desperate situation. If they lose another game, they will bid farewell to this mid-season championship!"

I remember taking up the topic, "And in the last round, they kept chasing Brother Ran. In the end, not only did they get nothing, but they even lost themselves in the pursuit. This will definitely have a certain impact on FNC's mentality..."

The director switched the scene and all the viewers saw the FNC player seats.

Hailisang, who was unshaven and with delicate features and looked like a melancholy young man, was laughing loudly, while bwipo, who was sitting at the edge of the stage, flushed with joy.

Except for Caps, the four FNC players and the coach were all laughing.

[I heard that FNC’s mentality has been affected to a certain extent? 】

【These people are really optimistic】

[You were still grimacing when you got off the stage, why did you start laughing when you came up? 】

[There is no sense of shame at all. RNM can still laugh after falling behind 0-2. If I were a European audience, I would jump up and hit their Tianling Cap with a hammer]

[I have to tell you the story of S6 Aguang’s famous emoticon package]

[Why aren’t you allowed to laugh? If you have a straight face, you have to say it’s Sima’s face, right?]

The barrage was still discussing this matter, and I remembered that I realized that I had been slapped in the face. I blushed and quickly changed the topic, "Now we will see what other trump cards FNC can come up with. If they continue to use the regular lineup, I think It is difficult to defeat YM and reach the sky!"

The small cannon mid laner in the last game was already an unconventional choice, but he was still vulnerable to YM. Remember, there is something to rely on.

European commentator Deficio thought the same way. Watching FNC lose two games in a row, he, like the audience, had no high expectations for FNC to win.

But I think one thing in my heart and say another thing in my mouth.

After all, Deficio is standing on the stage to commentate in front of millions of viewers across the European region, and his current stance must be firm.

"Fnatic, you are facing the most powerful League of Legends team in the world. Although the road ahead is bumpy, please don't give up!" His voice was choked with tears. "Fnatic, the pride of Europeans, my pride!"

Amid the deafening cheers of the Zenith Stadium, the BP picture appeared on the big screen!

"YM took advantage of its priority to choose the side and got the red side," Zeyuan loudly said his analysis, "This should be to be wary of FNC's possible surprise moves!"

After all, the red side has a counter position. As long as it can see the opponent's lineup in advance, it is possible to counterattack.

Zeyuan based his analysis on this point.

But he didn't expect that Hongmi's idea was very simple - to choose a hero for Lin Ran and beat Caps violently.

"FNC gave Luo the first ban spot, while YM chose to ban Ezreal!"

In the second position, youngbuck blocked Zoe.

As soon as this ban position came out, I remember laughing, "FNC seems to be very afraid of the meat tank Zoe that Brother Ran took out!"

Zhuo Ding also joked, "After all, not all Zoe can play at Brother Ran's level. The escape skills shown in the last game..."

He stopped talking and said no more.

Dan Zeyuan smiled and added, "It has a bit of the essence of Collier's Dirty Dancing, right?"

"I'm not, I don't have you, don't talk nonsense!" Knight came up with a series of negatives. He regretted saying that. Active players are always very cautious when evaluating their peers, even when they encounter reporters who have been chasing after them. They are all good words.

After all, everyone is in this industry, so there is no need to fight to the death. It is really good if everyone is good. Besides, no one can guarantee whether last year's opponents will become teammates this season.

Zeyuan said this subconsciously, and when he saw Zhuo Ding's reaction was a bit violent, he realized something was wrong after thinking about it and quickly changed the subject.

"YM blocked Crow Swain second-hand, and FNC finally put the policewoman in the blocked position!" He took a look at FNC's ban selection and felt something was not right, "Don't FNC plan to block Qinggang Shadow?"

Zhuo Ding answered, "This should be up for grabs. Now it depends on whether YM wants to let FNC get it."

Hongmi is still discussing with the team members, "If I release Qinggang Shadow, we can take Troll and Kai'Sa..."

Before he finished speaking, he vetoed the proposal himself, "It's ridiculous, it's still a bit risky."

The main reason is that Qinggangying's combat effectiveness in small-scale team battles is too strong. He also has a single belt in the middle and late stages. Apart from being uncomfortable in the laning phase after the value is reduced, he is a perfect hero.

It's really hard to deal with once you let him develop.

"YM banned Camille themselves, and the FNC blue side decided to grab the troll!" The selection phase of both sides went very quickly, and Zeyuan had no time to analyze, so he could only continue, "YM got the card. Sha and Rize!”

In the second and third picks, FNC got Sivir and Tahm Kench.

"Ah this..." Zhuo Ding was stunned for a moment, "rekkles chose Sivir for three consecutive games! Does he have any obsession with this hero?"

"Sivir is too functional, and his power period is relatively late among current ADCs. He basically needs blue sword + artillery + endless. He is not as good as ADCs like Verus, Big Mouth, and Kai'Sa." Knight Still explaining to the audience.

"To be fair, Sivir is a relatively mixed shooter in this version of the professional arena. Compared to other heroes, his carry ability is not outstanding." Zhuo Ding told the truth.

Remembering to agree twice, I focused on the next selection of players for both sides, "YM got the jungle scorpion in the third hand. Compared with the possibility of being interrupted by the troll pillar, E [Elastic Slingshot] stabbed Well, Crystal Pioneer is indeed pretty good."

In the second round, YM banned Kalma and Shen, while FNC banned Crocodile and Captain.

"YM chose to assist Morgana first. I have to say that Liu Qingsong's performance today was very exciting. Morgana's several waves of Q and ultimate moves created a lot of opportunities for the team!" Zeyuan spoke highly of Liu Qingsong. Today, facing Hailisang, who was often ill, the torn wounds were as steady as a defense tower.

"FNC's last two choices..."

The FNC players under the camera were overjoyed, as if someone had told a joke.

Caps also showed a satisfied smile, looking very healed.

"Wine Barrel?!" The hero that appeared in Oucheng's hero selection box was changed by Ze Yuan. Now the hero "Wine Barrel" is usable but not strong. Most teams also use Gragas for the jungle position. " Could it be that he is a troll in the top lane?”

He could only make this guess.

But then, FNC showed a hero that made the audience excited!

"Yasuo?!" Zeyuan took a breath.

【Are you happy? 】

【E Keep moving forward! 】

[This is too crazy. I didn’t expect to play Happy Man after zero to two]

[Brother Ran, aren’t you going to smash Caps’ head? 】

"Is this Caps' trump card?" Remember was also stunned. Yasuo was not at all what he expected. He originally thought it would be some kind of swing pick.

However, after seeing the ban position in the second round of FNC, Hongmi had suspicions about Yasuo, mainly because the opponent banned Crocodile, a warrior hero who is very easy to deal with Happy Wind Man.

"Barrels and Trolls both knock back..." Hongmi glanced at the opponent's lineup, "What hero are you planning to use?"

Since he captured the mage Ryze in advance, Lin Ran now has quite a variety of hero choices, including AD or AP, and the lineup is not lacking in output.

Lin Ran scanned the list.

He is different from others in finding a counter position.

Other players choose characters that are easy to deal with from the regular hero pool at their position, but Lin Ran takes a different approach.

He doesn't stick to the position, but first looks for the one suitable for playing Yasuo among the more than one hundred heroes, and then thinks about whether it is suitable for playing the mid laner. This way, the range of choices will be much wider.

He finally identified a hero.

"Are you sure?" Hongmi raised her eyebrows and asked again.

"Choose, no problem." Lin Ran was full of confidence.

Hongmi did not interfere any further.

Since it was agreed before the game that the stage for this game would be given to Lin Ran, he would be responsible for adjusting the lineup so that the heroes selected by the team would have a certain degree of coordination and have appropriate support points in the early, middle and late stages.

The rest is all up to the players.

A black shadow whose appearance was impossible to distinguish appeared. Only the cold eyes and the terrifying sharp blades on both sides of the body emitted a little cold light!

Just one look at it is enough to make you cringe!

"Nightmare!" Zeyuan blurted out, "Brother Ran is going to use nightmare to face Caps!"

I remember being surprised in my heart, "Nightmare mid laner, I don't think many people would use this hero to play in the mid lane before!"

"But it's really good to restrain Yasuo. W [Dark Asylum] can block Feng Nan's Q, and it also has a certain wave clearing ability," Zhuo Ding clicked his tongue, "And it seems that poor Caps didn't expect Brother Ran to use this. hero."

Caps opened his mouth slightly and was stunned.

He knew that Lin Ran's crocodile was very fierce, and he reported to the coach in advance to disable it, but who could have imagined that Lin Ran would bring out another nightmare!

You can tell from the screams from the audience that this is not a normal mid-lane hero choice at all!

Zeyuan also received the data given by the backstage director, and immediately said loudly: "The last time the Nightmare played a solo lane, it was used by Brother Ran in the 2017 LPL Spring Finals when YM played against WE. Going back further can be traced back to the 2014 LCS. In the EU Summer Split, MYM team’s mid laner used it to face SK’s mid laner Kassadin!”

"It happened 4 years ago. Did you win that game?" curious baby Zhuo Ding asked.

"...We lost. Nightmare's final record is 0/6/1." Zeyuan told the truth.

The other two commentators were speechless, and even many viewers were slightly worried after hearing Zeyuan's nightmare mid lane data.

With one win and one loss, the winning rate seems to be 50%, but the sample size is too small to prove anything.

Can this nightmare mid laner really do it?

Although from the perspective of skill mechanism, Nightmare does restrain Yasuo.

But in laning, not only the strength of the hero must be considered, but also the line of soldiers is also a key factor.

But now that the dust has settled, even if they shout at the top of their lungs, YM on stage will not change their choice.

"FNC finally moved Troll to the jungle, and the top laner was Gragas Gragas!"

Blue side FNC: top laner Barrel, jungler Troll, mid laner Yasuo, bottom lane Sivir + Tahm Kench.

Red square YM: top laner Ryze, jungler Scorpion, mid laner Nightmare, bottom lane Kai'Sa + Morgana.

Zhuo Ding had a panoramic view of the FNC lineup and analyzed it: "FNC's intention is quite obvious. They just want to play in the middle and jungle. The bottom duo and the other three are basically in a state of separation. Only after level 6 can Tahm Kench take part in the battle. ability."

After talking about FNC, he set his sights on the five heroes of YM, "And YM's side is a typical pro-face, Nightmare + Kai'Sa, just use Morgana's black shield and rush in."

"The winning point of this game is still in the middle. FNC has invested a lot of resources in Yasuo, including choosing two heroes with knock-back, Barrel and Troll. If Caps fails to successfully develop, then their set The lineup will be very lacking in output.”

Remember to nod and add, "And it's impossible for bwipo's wine barrel to produce all the meat in this game. He must make certain magic power equipment, otherwise the entire team will have no AP damage..."

At the players' table, Youngbuck reminded the players before he took off his headphones, "You should focus on the middle lane in this round. Nightmare has no ability to defend against ganks. Broxah's early game is up to you."

"No problem." Broxah has been extremely relaxed since he found out that he was going to face Scorpion. Scorpion Lailai was no match for the trolls at all. He was destined to take the initiative in the jungle in the early stage.

Caps looked at the Yasuo he chose and was still laughing.

For him, there is nothing more relaxing than Piasso.

After losing the last game, the FNC training department knew that the situation was over, and the team basically did not have the ability to let the second team chase the third team.

The optimistic Europeans started to work directly. They planned to give Caps, who had been psychologically tortured in the first two games, an emperor-level treatment, select a few heroes who can knock back the air, and let Caps have a happy game with Yasuo.

This is also the reason why FNC can still laugh out loud during this round of BP.

Their desire to win has been wiped out by Lin Ran's undead Zoe.

However, the European audience at the scene did not know what kind of mentality change had taken place in the home team they supported. Several fanatical FNC fans wore team uniforms and even had FNC logos smeared on their cheeks. They held hands and shouted "LET'S GO" in unison. FNATIC".

The solidarity actions of several people attracted more spectators to participate, and soon the cheers gathered into a torrent, echoing in the Zenith Stadium!

Accompanied by the lively cheers from the audience that almost overturned the dome, Summoner's Rift is coming!

Lin Ran bought the Dolan Sword and potions and ran to the middle. In this round, his main system used the Precision system's Deadly Rhythm, and his secondary system used the Dominance system's Bleeding Gums and Ultimate Hunter.

The Summoner skill is Flash Teleportation.

He focused on the runes and skills of the opposite Caps. The main system was Conqueror, which has been very popular recently, and the secondary system was also a red master, presumably a double-absorbing rune.

As for the summoner skills, Caps brought Blink and Purify, which are obviously used to resolve Nightmare E [Silent Fear].

On the commentary stage, Zeyuan was still sharing the interesting things he had just learned.

"Before the game started, G2 sent another tweet..." He was already extremely happy and eager to share this information with others.

I remember glancing at him and knowing what my partner was thinking, and he even complimented him, "What did you say?"

“They @reported to the Fnatic club, with the caption ‘If you want to delay a little longer, you can try to make a bug out of the barrel, maybe you can also recreate the miracle of BO5 four-to-zero’.”

I remember grinning like a slit, and even his eyes were narrowed to a slit; Zhuo Ding, who didn't want to cause trouble, was still trying to hold back his laughter, but after all, he had not received professional training, so he laughed out loud in the end, his thin shoulders twitching. smoke.

In the S5 quarterfinals held in Europe three years ago, FNC played against EDG. In addition to ushering in the dark era of the LPL division and the famous 'nimensidingle', there was also a spectacle that many viewers dubbed the first BO5 4-0.

At that time, the game was in the middle of the game, and the economy was still balanced, but FNC had the late-game dual core of Captain and Tsar, while EDG got a lineup that focused on pushing the rhythm of the early game.

According to common sense, EDG should have an advantage in the early stage, otherwise it would be difficult for them to win.

The balance of power in the mid-term is already considered a slight disadvantage for EDG.

And as time goes by, the disadvantages will become greater and greater.

At the critical moment, the hero Jiugong had a bug and was forced to rematch.

In the end, EDG could not escape the treatment of being swept out. In the rematch, many viewers thought that FNC was going to win, so the BO5 four-to-zero scenario emerged.

But now, FNC, once the 4-0 winner, is standing on the edge of the cliff, and has changed places with the LPL division of the year.

[LPL: If our roles were reversed, I would show you what cruelty is! 】

[It’s so cool, now I can ride on the European and American heads]

[G2 can really survive, I’m convinced]

[Can this also kill Guodian? 】

[Zeyuan, what are you talking about? I will flush your Weibo tonight! 】

[Weibo leads the way @Xiangxiang QAQ, please don’t rush into the wrong person! 】

Although he played jokes well, in the eyes of many LPL viewers, Zeyuan went a bit too far.

Zeyuan himself also received a warning from the director backstage, so he had to shut up and hide from the limelight for the time being.

7300 words...Gan, I was taken out to eat today, I will continue to write tomorrow.

I am almost familiar with the work, and I will spend a lot more time coding.
