LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

"Congratulations to YM for another victory!" Wawa increased his voice, "They are only one small game away from winning the first World Championship ticket in the LPL region!"

The YM fans in the audience kept shouting excitedly, lingering inside the venue.

Now RNG's home court is full of restless sounds of cheering for YM.

Miller breathed a sigh of relief, "YM's current competitive state is too strong. They have restricted Urgot in another way, so that he has no angle to enter the field... RNG really needs to make adjustments. Suddenly, they have one foot on the edge of the cliff!"

Uzi seemed to be stunned. He took off his earphones, and the two tissues were still tightly attached to his auricles, which looked a bit funny.

Letme was also delirious. He didn't even dare to look at the post-match data panel. He picked up the paper cup and walked quickly back to the backstage lounge.

But he didn't want to see it. The director would not show mercy. After all the players left the stage, he gave the output diagram of both sides.

The damage histogram created by Urgot is only a short section, and compared with Lucian against Jin Gong, the gap is even more exaggerated.

"5.5k..." Miller clicked his tongue, "There's really nothing Letme can do."

In this game, Yan Junze gave priority to Justice and Glory for the sake of the team, and he had a bunch of tank equipment, so the damage itself had been reduced to the limit. In addition, he couldn't touch anyone in team battles. Except for the laning period, he didn't fight much. harm.

But this does not prevent the barrage of ridicule.

【5500? Hahaha, it really made me laugh. The opponent Jin Gong hit 2.2w! 】

[The average output is less than 300, which is really top-notch]

[I didn’t expect that the output difference between the two top orders is 4 times]

[Can you blame Letme for this game? Isn't it a BP problem? 】

[Oh, you already got crabs, why not? Pure version of T1 top laner, Xin Zhao and Zoe are not weak, right? Who can I blame if I can’t fight it?]

In the RNG lounge, everyone was in a low mood.

Losing two small games in a row, and being dragged to death by YM in the same way in the second game, no one can withstand that kind of torture.

"Let's be on the red side of the lower plate..." Heart thought about it, "Can we just release the crabs directly?"

Because RNG released Akali in the first game, it did not achieve good results, but let Lin Ran show off for the whole game.

This means that they have to take on one more ban position. If crabs are banned again, the team's BP will be restricted in the first round, putting them at a natural disadvantage.

"It's not impossible to release him, but we have to be able to deal with it!" Uzi said with a slightly depressed expression.

Midhu raised his hand, "I can use Enchantress."

He is quite confident in his LeBlanc.

In the last game, Lin Ran used Enchantress to drive the rhythm in the early stage and involve the formation in the mid-term, and achieved very good results.

Li Yuanhao feels that if the team needs it, he can also recreate it.

"But just one Enchantress is definitely not enough. We must make the entire lineup more flexible," Sun Dayong interjected from the side. "It seemed that their core was Lucian in the last game, but the real point was the troll."

When Letme heard this, her hands began to shake again.

The troll on the other side in the last game really disgusted him.

Every time he wanted to move forward, there would definitely be a pillar of ice that would block his hand, and then the crab would be as if its legs had been removed, unable to move at all.

"If the opponent bans the troll, we have to ban Urgot. The result is that simple." Sun Dayong concluded.

Another point is that RNG can't use the Sword Demon that can fight against Urgot, which is their biggest shortcoming at the moment.

Xiaohu and Letme just hate that they don't have enough time.

They don't ask for any upper-limit operation that their Sword Demon can perform. As long as it doesn't hold back the team, they can accept it. After all, Aatrox after the second redesign is a teamfight hero in every sense. As long as he is in the lane, It's considered a success if it doesn't collapse.

But now, their sword demon proficiency cannot even guarantee this.

On the other side of the backstage passage, the YM lounge was filled with laughter and laughter.

"Brother Hao, are you ready for the champagne?" Lin Ran browsed the e-sports forum just now, and after seeing all the praise in the forum and Hupu, he put it away with satisfaction.

After winning two small games, the team's morale is now high and they are full of confidence.

"Ready," Guo Hao replied, "Today is just an appetizer, and the finals in two days will be the big meal."

Lin Ran is not worried at all now.

This RNG seems very contradictory to him.

To say whether they are strong or not, they are definitely strong. Uzi still maintains a strong competitiveness, and the other teammates are also considered to be very good domestic players, and their comprehensive strength is also considered to be at the top echelon in the LPL league.

But RNG has a problem that has not been solved so far.

That is, the tactical focus is very chaotic.

In the first game, RNG obviously wanted to protect the bottom lane and let Uzi's Xayah carry the game in the later stages.

As a result, Lin Ran's Akali showed off her flowers.

In the second game, RNG wanted to focus on the middle and upper jungle, and let Uzi use Sivir to clear the line and wait for the 30-minute mid-to-late team battle.

However, Jin Gong's top laner Lucian, and YM's successful use of pull tactics prepared for testing in advance, directly killed the suspense of the game in the early and mid-term.

In these two games, it seems unrealistic to say that RNG has any ideas for solving the problem. The team was led by YM throughout the whole process, and there was a deviation in the combination of the version and its own tactics, which made them very uncomfortable.

RNG originally had a strength of 90 points, but now it can only perform 70-75 points.

If the opponent does not change their formation, YM will enter the finals without any doubt.

Filling the paper cup with drinks, Lin Ran came on stage again.

In this game, RNG did not choose to make any substitutions, but let Xiang Guo stay on the field.

Wawa and Miller also ended their short break and regrouped to prepare for the game.

"YM's performance today is obvious to all," Miller said in the commentary box before the game officially started. "Their tactical reserves are very rich, including top laner Lucian."

"Yes, Jin Gong also won the MVP of the second game," Wawa nodded in agreement, "He proved with facts that his top lane Lucian play style, which is completely different from TheShy, can also achieve excellent results!"

Miller continued, "Looking at RNG, they played a bit passively in this semi-final. They couldn't even find any rhythm in the early and mid-term, so they were led by YM."

"The main reason is that Brother Ran is too stable," Wawa said, feeling helpless for RNG. "Every time he attacks, he can grab enough resources and profits for the team, and he firmly controls the early rhythm."

When Miller saw his partner mentioning Lin Ran, he immediately became energetic, "And his first set was Akali vs. Crow, and the second set was Enchantress vs. Zoe. These were all mid-lane matches with no line rights in the early stage. But Brother Ran was only suppressed in the first six levels. As long as he reaches level 6, he will definitely be able to regain the lane power."

Many viewers followed Miller's words and thought about it carefully, and felt that this was really the case. In the end, they could only sigh that Yu Lin Ran was now strong and stable.

Except for peak Faker, no one can take advantage of Lin Ran so far.

It's useless to call his teammates to catch him. He can always start from certain details, seize the enemy's flaws and hit them hard, and fight back the disadvantage.

If he were a teammate and supporter, Lin Ran would undoubtedly be the best partner.

But if you are an opponent...

He was too terrible.

At this time, there was a pleasant metallic crisp sound in everyone's ears, and the two commentators were lifted up.

"The BP session of the third set has begun! Let's see whether YM sweeps the opponent and enters the semi-finals, or RNG pulls back and drags the game into the fourth game!"

"YM is on the blue side in this game, and the first ban position is given to Yasuo, while RNG banned Akali!"

Immediately following the second move, YM blocked the troll.

This is no different from what Sun Dayong thought. Heart chose to ban crabs without much thought.

"For the last ban in the first round, YM chose Dao Mei!"

Irelia was sent to the blockade position. From Heart's point of view, Hongmi clearly told him to choose the Sword Demon for YM.

With both Crab and Sword Girl in the forbidden position, the Sword Demon has no natural enemies.

He had no choice but to seal away Aatrox as well.

There was no way around it, Lin Ran's proficiency in using the Sword Demon was frightening. He was responsible for basically half of Aatrox's famous battles in the past few waves.

"But this way, Qinggangying and Galio's system of doing whatever they want will be released!" Miller realized something was wrong, "Do you want to choose YM?"

Hongmi was pacing behind the players' bench.

"Take down Qinggangying first. The other side may want to take Galio..." He deduced it in his mind and felt that he was sure of victory, so he told Xiaoyao to choose Camille.

Everyone in RNG is also discussing.

Malaxiangguo kept chattering something.

"...Policewoman and Morgana!" Doll immediately raised his voice, "Uzi's Caitlin is definitely worth looking forward to!"

This is one of the representative heroes in Uzi's career, and is much stronger than Vayne in terms of strength.

Miller saw another difference, "RNG has raised the priority of the bottom lane duo to the first round. They want to focus their tactics on the bottom lane to play speed pushing!"

Uzi finally figured it out during the previous intermission.

It is simply unrealistic for the team to win against YM through the upper midfield.

Whether it is their hero pool or their in-game operations and linkage, they are inferior to their opponents.

The team's most advantageous point is himself.

Anyway, now that we are on the edge of the cliff, we might as well try some retro tactics, using four guarantees and one speed push, and use the dead horse as a live doctor.

"Should we choose Galio?" Lin Ran pinched the bridge of his nose and asked his coach.

Hongmi was still thinking.

He originally didn't want to use Galio for Lin Ran, because this hero is really not that strong now in the middle. After being slashed hard at the end of S7, Galio is no longer the meaty and output bug. Normally, you can rarely do anything before you choose him at level 6.

When Redmi was on the blue side and grabbed Camille, she wanted RNG to snatch away the Colossus of Justice.

Unexpectedly, RNG's sudden changes disrupted his plan.

Hongmi knew that RNG had four guarantees and one unique skill, but they did not expect that their opponents would raise the BP priority of the bottom duo to such an extent.

And what the hell is a policewoman?

Since hurricane arrows cannot stack passive [Headshot] layers, the policewoman entered the sewer!

In this kind of game, Uzi actually took out it again? !

Jack's expression didn't look good either.

He is not afraid of policewomen.

But afraid of Morgana.

Especially when the opponent is Shi Senming, it is even more scary.

Xiaoyao just finished taking a sip of water and turned the headset back, "If we don't take Galio, will the other side pick him?"

The answer is almost yes.

Although Guanhu’s proficiency with this hero is average, RNG has already come up with the female police speed promotion system. It’s not bad to have Galio to protect the core of the team.

By then, it will be difficult for YM to break through the iron wall set up by RNG.

Lin Ran slid the wheel, trying to find a way to deal with it.

Behind him, Hongmi made a suggestion, "How about we let Galio choose Nightmare?"

At present, Nightmare is also a regular counter position for Galio. Its main strength is to turn off the lights to block the enemy's vision, so that Galio cannot use R [Hero Appearance] to fly over.

"...That's okay." Lin Ran didn't raise any objection.

Wawa saw the YM selection box on the BP panel change, "Nightmare and Sivir... look good too!"

"The main reason is that Sivir doesn't hurt so much when hitting the policewoman in the lane," Miller analyzed. "After all, E's spell shield can block the policewoman's clip, and even Morgana's Q [Dark Imprisonment] can block it. Lose."

"Furthermore, Sivir QW's two small skills are very good in terms of lane clearing efficiency. Jack can protect his bottom tower in normal laning."

RNG finally chose Xin Zhao, the T1 jungler, to deal with Qinggang Shadow. This is also a typical jungle matchup advantage.

"In the second round of BP, RNG banned Lu Xian and Captain, clearly targeting Brother Gongzi; while YM banned Thain and Shen, blocking Letme's two best tank heroes!"

In the fourth selection, RNG on the red side got Ornn first.

The main purpose is to use grabs instead of bans to prevent YM from choosing Sheep Blacksmith to form a lights-out and sheep-herding combination of Ornn + Nightmare.

This is actually one of RNG's unique systems, but during the intercontinental competition, the four teams at that time communicated with each other, and YM also learned a lesson.

I can't say I'm very skilled, but I can use it.

This is enough to scare the heart.

"Add some AP damage..." Hongmi glanced at his lineup, "Jin Gong, can you use Kennen?"

In fact, in terms of laning alone, Ryze is the better choice. If Ryze plays Ornn in the top lane, he can develop casually.

Since Ornn's W [Bellows Breath] does not have an unstoppable state in this version, Ryze's W [Rune Imprisonment] can ravage him at will, and the second-stage sheep with his ultimate move cannot be hit at all in many cases.

But if you combine the lineups of both sides, Ryze is not very good.

If Jin Gong is selected, the biggest problem is that YM has a short manpower.

Ryze + Green Steel Shadow + Nightmare + Sivir, these four people can't touch Uzi's policewoman at all, and they will be kited to death.

Kennen is more suitable, as he has the opportunity to create explosive output when entering the field.

"In the end, YM gave Liu Qingsong a supplementary hand of Luo, and now they have four heroes entering the field!" Wawa turned up the volume, "This is to force Uzi to death!"

"Keep the row, keep the row!" Uzi actively requested in the team's voice, "Get someone who can protect me!"

The YM lineup is already clear.

Uzi feels that as long as he doesn't die, he can win!

"Bao Pai..." The salesperson rubbed his chin with a thoughtful look on his face.

There are not many heroic characters in the hero pool that can play a protective role.

And he also has to consider the laning. Those mid laners with purely protective functions will be pressed to the ground and rubbed against the nightmare.

Not to mention that Lin Ran was on the opposite side.

He must be more cautious.

Heart and other teammates were still communicating, wanting to help discuss the best choice, while Li Yuanhao responded while scanning around aimlessly, trying to find a suitable answer in the hero list.

Suddenly, he stopped his mouse wheel.

"how about this?"

He clicked on a hero that hadn't appeared in an official game for a long time.

When Uzi saw it, his eyes lit up, "Okay, okay!"

"Heart, what do you think?" Guanhu asked the head coach behind him.

"I think it's very generous," Heart said in half-baked Chinese, "Xiaohu, are you confident?"

"Don't worry, didn't we deliberately practice this hero before when we were studying how to deal with the enchantress." Li Yuanhao thought he could do it.

"Choose, choose!" Heart decided.

In RNG Shi Senming's hero selection box, a witch with a dark blue body appeared, and her body was covered with dark ice!

There were exclamations one after another in the audience, and RNG fans holding various support signs in their hands kept shouting the name of their home team.

The unexpected choice gave them a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation!

"Lissandra!" The doll's eyes widened, "RNG has revealed a lot of new things in this round!"

"No one has been using this hero since S6. This RNG is going to do something unexpected!" Miller was also excited.

The appearance of ice girl Lissandra also caught YM off guard.

"What age is this antique?" Jack dismissed it, "Are you using it to fool your buddies?"

"Don't relax!" Hongmi was still emphasizing to them, "Try to win this round and don't give the opponent a chance!"

"I understand!" Jin Gong responded loudly.

Hongmi glanced across the stage and found that Heart hadn't taken off his headphones yet. He followed the same example and told the team members more.

"Don't even think about getting off the road. The key to the problem is visibility..." Homme spoke very quickly. Thanks to Jiang Chenglu's ethnic Korean, if he had found an ordinary translator, he would probably miss many words.

"The focus of the opponent's attack will definitely be in the lower half. Everyone should expand their vision and try to start controlling the grass along the lower river. As long as the eye position can be out, we will know when RNG will attack the bottom lane."

After getting this bottom lane combination, Redmi didn't expect to be able to defend the first tower in the bottom lane, but when to drop the tower, and whether to surrender kills in vain at the same time, these are all points that need to be paid attention to.

The five YM players all expressed their understanding, and then Hongmi took off her headphones with confidence and went to Heart to shake hands.

The lineups of both sides are as follows.

Blue square YM: top laner Kennen, jungler Qinggang Shadow, mid laner Nightmare, bottom lane Sivir + Luo.

Red side RNG: top laner Ornn, jungler Xin Zhao, mid laner Ice Girl, bottom lane policewoman + Morgana.

"Let's wait and see who will win the first ticket to the LPL World Championship!"

Summoner's Rift is coming!

The audience was filled with cheers for both teams. RNG fans were now working together. The home team was already standing on the edge of the cliff. Naturally, they had to work harder to get a good result.

Lin Ran moved his left wrist, quickly clicked the mouse with his right hand, and found what he needed in the equipment column almost like a muscle reaction.

Doran Shield + Potion.

"In this round, Brother Ran brought the Conqueror, and his secondary systems are the Dominator's Ghost Poro and the Ultimate Hunter, which can shorten the cooldown time of his ultimate move..."

After the doll finished speaking, he turned his attention to the rune panel on the other side of the account.

"Lissandra's cornerstone rune carries Aftershock, and its secondary systems are the Mana Flow Tie and Transcendence of Sorcery!"

But then, his attention was drawn away by something else.

"Brother Gongzi, this rune... is so insane!"

"Still stealing money!" Wawa was stunned, "Is he addicted to stealing?!"

The audience burst into laughter.

Letme saw Jin Gong's runes when he read the article and loaded the game just now.

He was numb.

I don't know which designer cub developed the harbinger of theft. Now if he plays a trick, Jin Gong will definitely take the stolen money and start torturing him.

"The combat effectiveness of the first-level teams on both sides is not particularly strong, but RNG won with Morgana and can rely on her to win prizes." Miller stared at the movements in the Summoner's Rift. "RNG chose to break into YM's lower jungle area. , Xiang Guobu set up an invasion ward!"

Immediately after the players returned to the lane, Uzi placed his jewelry eye in the middle of the grass on the lower route.

This is the normal eye position for grabbing line rights, and YM also marked the grass.

Although Xiaoyao had no intention of grabbing the lower lane, he still brushed from top to bottom.

Mainly because it's Kennen versus Ornn on the top lane, so it's not easy to catch them in the early stage.

Although the control skills of the bottom lane are not stable when facing Morgana's support, Xiaotian knows that the opponent's Xiangguo will definitely be captured in this game. He can protect his duo by counter-crouching.

Lin Ran came to the middle and started pushing the lane hard.

This time he went out with the Dolan Shield, and with his passive recovery, he was basically not afraid of the ice girl's consumption.

Lin Ran wanted to hold the line firmly in his hands.

The fact is that it is indeed very successful. The Ice Girl does not have any advantage when facing the nightmare.

From time to time, Lin Ran would use W's shield to block Ice Girl's Q skill to maintain his health.

Fortunately, the hero Ice Girl can also stabilize the lane. There is no sign of decline in a short period of time, but she seems passive.

"The female policewoman in the bottom lane is still pushing the grinding tower... Both junglers have finished their first round of jungle clearing and returned to the city to replenish equipment."

"But Xin Zhao is heading straight to the lower half, and Xiangguo is ready to attack the lower lane!"

Miller noticed something was wrong.

The originally relaxed atmosphere in Summoner's Rift suddenly became tense!

I will finish writing this big chapter tomorrow.

EDG hold on
