LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

"Dear summoners, this is the live broadcast of the first day of the eight-to-four knockout round at the Busan Convention and Exhibition Center. Hello everyone, I am the commentator!"

Two familiar faces appear on camera.

Today’s commentary is still Wawa and Miller.

"Before the game starts, I still have to praise our representative teams from the LPL division," Wawa was quite excited. "YM, IG and RNG all achieved first place in the group and successfully avoided the quarter-finals civil war!"

"This is also the second consecutive year that all three of our teams have entered the knockout rounds. I have to admit that the LPL is getting stronger and stronger, and it is currently the number one division in the world!" Miller said with emotion.

He and Wawa are both veterans of the LPL. They have stood in the commentary box since the establishment of the competition area. They have followed the LPL to the top of the mountain, and they have also fallen into the trough, watching the ups and downs of the competition area. Now after YM's two consecutive championships, the LPL After all, a hundred flowers bloom.

The two commentators exchanged words with each other, summarizing history and looking forward to the future, and then changed the topic to this game.

"Today's first game is a contest between the European Division and our No. 1 seed in the LPL Division..."

"One thing to say, Fnatic's results this year are quite good, and the staffing is quite balanced, and the individual strength is not particularly bad," Watanabe said with a smile, "It's a pity that we met YM, otherwise it is still possible to make further progress."

"I think in today's game, YM can try to target broxah," Miller gave his own suggestion. "After all, now we all know that the FNC team relies on the jungle to survive the early stage."

"If you can hold him down, the opponent's rhythm will be very uncomfortable."

After hearing the announcement from the backstage director, Wawa immediately perked up and said, "The scene is ready, let's hand over the picture to the ten contestants on the stage!"

The BP panel has been displayed in the center of the live screen.

"Since YM is first in the group, they have the right to choose the side in the 1st, 3rd, and 5th rounds of this game. They chose the blue side for themselves in the 1st round!"

The BP idea introduced by Redmi is surprising.

"Banned small cannons?" Miller was puzzled. "This is not a strong AD in the version at all!"

FNC's head coach youngbuck immediately frowned.

He had a guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to make a conclusion yet.

Being on the red side, he was severely restricted in the first round of BP, so he had to honestly block Syndra first.

The ball girl is the current version of the T1 mage. The mid-to-low swing is quite powerful, so there is no reason to give it to YM.

"Ym's second ban position was given to Sivir..." Miller's eyes widened, "What are you going to do? You really want to target Ou Cheng!"

The camera showed the FNC players' seat. Rekkles's face was expressionless, but the constant shaking of the mouse seemed to reveal a trace of panic in his heart.

"They want to restrict Martin," Harisan said from behind, "Should we release the ice?"

He felt that if both Ashe and Jhin were released, YM could only choose one, and then Ou Cheng could still get his favorite hero Jhin.

Youngbuck thought for a moment, "Don't be in a hurry, wait a moment..."

Anyway, FNC is on the red side, and they will ban and choose later. In the first round, BP can formulate countermeasures based on the opponent's ideas. Then it will be no problem to decide whether to release the ice point.

In the end, he chose to block the Tauren Chieftain, who had good force opening ability and tankiness.

"YM's last banned spot in the first round is given to Bomberman!"

Before the game even started, Wawa made his first scream, "All three ban positions were given to rekkles. This is because he is sure that he has no other adc options!"

This time it was very uncomfortable for FNC.

Youngbuck didn't expect Hongmi to be so crazy.

You must know that BP is very critical in the first round. Basically, you have to give a strong character to the version or the opponent's signature hero.

Nowadays, the tactical status of the bottom lane is not high, and Rekkles does not have the strong ability to suppress the lane like Uzi, so it is impossible to cross the lane. Even if the ban position is given to the duo, it should be for the one with stronger rhythm ability. Just assist.

What do you mean by banning all shooters and bombers in the first round?

Youngbuck has no other choice but to release both Ashe and Jhin, as Hailisang said before, to ensure that Ou Cheng has suitable characters to use.

"FNC chose to ban the troll...YM grabbed it and locked the ice shooter without hesitation!"

Youngbuck flipped through the notebook in his hand and decided to give the other party a hand-sized blow in kind, "How about we just take Yasuo?"

YM invested all its first-round ban positions in ADC, and even released Yasuo, who is usually banned.

He felt that he had no reason not to choose.

"No problem, we will play in the middle field this game, Martin, you can give us additional control." Broxah was full of confidence.

Rekkles responded to indicate that he understood.

Since he takes on so much BP firepower, he doesn't need to be so eye-catching in the game.

"YM's second and third choices are Braum and Sword Demon," Miller said loudly while looking at the BP panel. "They chose a swing position in the single line to pave the way for their next second-round selection!"

Youngbuck originally wanted to choose Luo for the team, so that he could supplement the knock-up and provide space for Yasuo, and he also had very strong roaming support ability, and he also had R and W to start the team.

However, because too many ADCs were banned before, he now has no way to choose support, otherwise Jhin will not be able to get it.

Entering the second round of BP, Youngbuck sent the two jungle heroes Qinggangying and Xin Zhao to the ban position against the Garlic Bastard.

"In this way, wouldn't Xiaotian have no heroes to choose from?" Wawa commented pertinently, "The only two jungle characters left are Blind Sin and Olaf, which are not very high priority."

Li Sin and Berserker were all-powerful in the S6 Global Finals. Now two years later, they can only be ranked at the forefront of T2 in the S8 World Championship, and their strength is relatively average.

"YM is banning Hairisang's Luo and Thresh, and trying to prevent the opponent from using roaming to support teammates..." Miller pondered for a moment and then said, "Isn't this banning the sword girl? Irelia is also a good choice for mid-to-top swing, and is a good counter to the Sword Demon they have already picked."

But Redmi did this intentionally.

He has studied the hero pool of FNC players before. Apart from Ou Cheng, the most obvious point is that bwipo never uses Dao Mei.

Yes, from the eve of the mid-season to now, for nearly half a year, Dao Mei has been the top laner T1 choice, but bwipo has never used it once.

Analyst Gou Ba searched through the opponent's Korean server ranking records and found that Irelia didn't have many practice sessions.

This is obviously a proficiency problem.

Unless bwipo, like Lin Ran, deliberately hid his ultimate move until the knockout rounds to use it, then we can basically draw a conclusion.

However, Hongmi did not directly rule out the possibility of FNC hiding a single-handed sword girl, so he chose to make this BP in the first round of Bo5.

Even if bwipo chooses Irelia later, Hongmi can still see how well the opponent has mastered it and respond in subsequent games without any particularly serious consequences.

It seems that there is only one hidden danger in releasing Irelia...

FNC players and coaches are still discussing their next options.

Hailisang rummaged through the hero list for a long time, "Get me Leona."

Now that Tau, Braum, Rakan and Thresh have all been banned or taken away, among the remaining auxiliary heroes, only Sunshine Girl is more suitable.

Youngbuck wanted to leave the counter position to bwipo, so he readily agreed and let Ou Cheng help the assistant choose the role first.

"YM's fourth and fifth picks... Olaf and Ryze, this still hasn't finalized the choice of the two solo lanes, they are still wavering!"

Ryze and Sword Demon are both heroes that can be hit or played, and Red Rice makes the opponent unpredictable about his own path.

Bwipo, who has a comic face, doesn’t know what he should choose.

If Caps uses Yasuo and YM moves Sword Demon to the middle, then the middle is destined to be restrained. He has to find a hero who can surely eat Ryze in order to achieve a balance in lane rights.

Among the remaining top laners, there are really not many who can beat Ryze...

In fact, Hongmi made the right bet.

bwipo is really not very good at the hero Dao Mei, at least not to the level that he can be selected in the quarterfinals of the World Championship.

"How about we let bwipo take Yasuo, and I use Sword Girl to deal with Ran?" Xiaomao realized that his top laner was in a bit of a dilemma, and he immediately took the initiative to make suggestions.

Caps is not afraid of YM's swing. Sword Girl has an advantage in the laning phase whether she is fighting Sword Demon or Ryze.

This way, one lane is still superior and the other is inferior, but FNC has the advantage because of the mid-range unit that has a strong ability to radiate throughout the map.

But this is the hidden danger that Hongmi thought of before!

He is very thoughtful and has made all preparations in advance, and is not afraid that FNC will select Dan Dao Mei.

Caps thought he could help the team relieve the pressure, but he didn't know that everything was under Redmi's calculations.

Players from the two teams quickly exchanged heroes, and the lane split situation was settled.

"This way, Brother Ran uses Ryze to go in the middle, while Jin Gong uses Sword Demon to beat bwipo's Yasuo!"

The lineups of both sides have now been determined.

Blue square YM: top laner Sword Demon, jungler Olaf, mid laner Ryze, and bottom lane Ice Gablon.

Red side FNC: top laner Yasuo, jungler Barrel, mid laner Sword Girl, bottom lane Jhin + Leona.

"In terms of the lineup alone, I think YM's is slightly better," Wawa boasted again, "After all, FNC is a bit of a chopper, relying on Keg alone to support the team's spell damage."

Miller expressed his inner worries, "The key point is how YM will deal with this mid lane sword girl, Ryze beating Irelia...it's hard to be honest."

"If the Dao girl is allowed to set the pace and constantly harass the jungle and side lanes, then YM will be a little difficult to withstand in the middle of the game."

The Haier brothers have been partners for so many years. One is a good person and the other is a bad person. They have a clear division of labor and a tacit understanding of cooperation.

The YM fans in the stands also shouted loudly to cheer for their home team.

In comparison, the momentum of FNC fans is much smaller.

The director switched the screen and entered an interview that had been recorded in advance.

Caps sat on the chair and heard the question raised by the narrator - you will face the strongest mid laner in League of Legends in the quarter-finals. What do you think?

"Well..." Xiaomao smiled habitually, "I think this is also an opportunity for me to learn and improve. I learned a lot from Ran during the mid-season."

"I want to show him the results this time," he said firmly, "and I don't think FNC will definitely lose. Before the result of the game comes out, I always think that FNC and YM are 50-50."

This sentence caused violent reactions in the LPL match live broadcast room.

[I didn’t expect the 50-50 opening]

[Ran is not that strong, I often kill him solo in training matches]

[It’s true that it’s 50/50. After all, there are only two outcomes: losing and winning. FNC’s winning probability is as high as 50%! 】

[If you are a logic genius, you belong]

Lin Ran also appeared in the following interview clip.

"The FNC team is quite strong. After all, they are the double champions of the European division." He first praised his opponent, and then changed the subject, "But I don't think the opponent is YM's opponent."

"My teammates are far better than FNC, which is why I have been able to maintain sufficient confidence for a long time."

After the brief pre-match interview, Summoner's Rift descended on the Busan Convention and Exhibition Center!

The ten heroes quickly bought equipment in the spring and quickly left the high ground.

"The five YM people walked along the upper road, passed their home to go up to the next tower, then turned down and passed through the triangular grass to the FNC wild area!"

Miller's eyes were fixed on the small map.

"This is to use Liu Qingsong's strength to carry out a first-level invasion!"

The first-level team strength of YM's lineup is almost at the ceiling level.

The bottom lane is the Freljord combination of Ice + Braum, which has both control and output.

The mid laner is Ryze, and the single-point control of level one W [Rune Confinement] is relatively stable.

Not to mention the jungler Olaf, Q... [Countercurrent Throw] plus passive attack speed, he is simply a god of fighting.

There is only Jin Gong's Sword Demon. Q [Darkborn Blade] is difficult to hit the opponent without E Shadow Rush, and it seems a bit weak.

But FNC's lineup was not comparable at all, so Lin Ran and his teammates decisively chose to invade in the early stage, hoping to forcibly counter the opponent's red BUFF in the upper half.

"FNC has also been prepared for it. They set up a spy in the upper half of their camp and saw the movements of everyone in YM in advance!"

Broxah decisively chose to avoid the battle. He planned to drag his duo teammates to YM's lower jungle area and start with the opponent's red BUFF.

"When Jack returned to the line, he seemed to be aware of broxah's movements. He ran to his stone beetle camp and threw W [Thousands of Arrows] towards the red buff jungle area!"

Arrows with an icy aura hit the three FNC men in the field.

After learning the news, Jack immediately reminded his teammates to let others know the jungle route of the opponent's Jungle Barrel.

"The two sides did not engage in further entanglement, and each returned to the line to finish the damage..."

At this moment, the director finally took some time off and showed the rune configurations of both sides on the data panel.

Miller glanced subconsciously.

But then his gaze became fixed.

The doll also noticed something was wrong.

"Brother Ran, what's going on?" His voice suddenly rose an octave.

"He, Ryze, brought aftershocks?!"

The computer keyboard got wet.

I coded on my mobile phone, and the number of words is a little short. I will make up the number tomorrow when the keyboard is ready.

Feel sorry.
