What is a hexagon jungler?

Watching the SKT players take the elevator to leave the lobby, Gu Xing was about to leave when someone hugged his shoulders.

"What's the matter?" Song Jinghao asked in a low voice, "What did Lee Sang Hyuk tell you?"

He was far away just now, and couldn't really hear the communication between his jungler and Faker.

Gu Xing briefly conveyed Lee Sang Hyuk's meaning to Song Jinghao, "Faker wants to meet VG sooner, and plans to avenge last year's World Championship."

Smeb snorted coldly when he heard this, "I haven't settled with them yet, Lee Sang Hyuk is still beating me up, right? It's best to meet in the semi-finals, I want to beat Qingsuan SKT hard!"

He has had a long-standing feud with the barbecue stand on the field.

S5LCK Spring Finals, S5 Global Finals Finals, S6LCK Spring Finals...

In just over two years, the Tigers lost against SKT in three heavyweight finals!

ROX could have achieved perfect domination of the LCK division in the first two years, but because of the existence of SKT, it became a bubble!

Song Jinghao was naturally unwilling.

He joined VG because he valued Gu Xing's outstanding performance against SKT, and wanted to catch up with his peak period before the end, but he wanted to get revenge!

"There will definitely be a chance this year," Gu Xing reassured, "No one can stop us."

Smeb muttered angrily, "SKT Nicole has to fight, if she is eliminated before meeting us, it will be too boring..."

The two left the hotel behind the LPL troops, and met the members of Guodian who had returned happily with bags on their backs.

"Wuhu!"

It was Liu Qingsong who was the most excited, and when he went up, he punched Ming Kai hard in the chest, "It's finally the top eight, it's not easy, brother!"

Ghost Foot Seven's expression was relaxed and relieved, but also a little bit bitter.

The reason to relax is because I finally broke into the knockout round and lived up to the expectations of my hometown elders and fans.

If he wants to advance to the top 16 in the local battle, he dare not imagine what kind of public opinion frenzy it will cause!

Suffering is due to helplessness.

When will EDG win the top eight in the World Championship and have to worry about it?

Isn't this the standard configuration of Guodian?

Now they are walking on thin ice, fighting until the last moment to win the qualifying place narrowly and dangerously!

Guijiaoqi felt powerless.

Jin Yibo said with a happy face, "Why don't you say thank you Brother Xing?"

If you don't trick FNC into a jungler, EDG may not be able to qualify!

The selection of Yin Zerui forced FNC to change from the double C system that it is best at to the jungle axis, which gave Guodian an opportunity to take advantage of.

The EDG members looked at Gu Xing with gratitude.

"It's nothing, nothing." Gu Xing waved his hand, "It's just a small effort, and it's not just for you to spend a long time working hard. The knockout game is the goal."

It can only be said that the deception effect of the little yellow-haired jungler is outstanding.

Judging from the results of the second round of the group stage in the past two days, the trap Gu Xing wove really confused many teams.

It is estimated that the small number of training matches of each team has been divided into a bunch, and there is not enough energy to discover the secret of the change of the top laner environment.

It has to be said that the World Championship is the event with the most frequent evolution of a single version.

Like the regular season of the league, there are at most one or two iterations around the version.

One is because the training time is not enough, the version will be changed in just two weeks, and the coaching team will not dig deeper, otherwise it will take time and energy to find the real answer of the version, before the results can be obtained, it will be changed to the next version .

The second is that the number of powerful teams in the competition area is not enough, and the style is relatively single.

Like the LCK, it started out as an operation. Except for the outliers like Dragon Ball, everyone's tactical ideas are similar, and it is difficult to quickly produce advanced understanding when they collide with each other.

Worlds is different.

Even if the finalists are not included, the total duration of the competition is about one month, not to mention that many teams will arrive at the host venue in advance for training.

Practicing a single version for a long time will inevitably lead to the evolution of the understanding of each team!

Moreover, there are so many competition areas to participate in the World Championship, and various styles are constantly mixed together in training and competition collisions, which can easily give birth to new ideas!

Compared with the mid-season competition, which is also an international event, more teams participated in the World Championship for a longer time. It is by no means a vain name to say that it is the most valuable event of the year in the LOL field!

The test is not only the player's operation on the field, but also closely related to the hero pool, the coaching staff's version development and other factors.

The EZ jungler has deceived many teams, which is equivalent to forcing other teams to do useless work with traps, reducing the number of teams participating in the version development in the World Championship stage, making them unable to quickly iterate the environment, so that VG has always maintained its leading position!

"Old Gu, how did you grow your brain?" Jack touched Gu Xing's head affectionately, "You only think of weird and weird ideas."

Gu Xing said modestly, "Where is it? It's just making use of the situation to fuel the flames."

"I found that there is always version poison in the World Championship every year. Several heroes who were prosperous in the first half of the knockout round will be eliminated and thrown into the sewer due to the evolution of version understanding..."

"Isn't last year's excavator like this?" He spread his hands, "It's just that no one used her to set traps."

Ming Kai agrees with this statement.

On the eve of the S6 World Championship, Rek'Sai was once considered a strong choice by the major teams.

In the group stage at that time, Rexai played a total of 15 games, with a BP rate as high as 54%, and a winning rate of 47%. In terms of popularity, it is even worse than the current EZ!

Gu Xing also used it in the group match against SKT at that time.

But when it came to the S6 knockout round, each team's understanding of the version changed, and they realized that Rek'Sai was just a fancy embroidered pillow. After that, the excavator only played a total of 3 times in the 7 BO5s, and they were all in the eighth game. In a strong match, only one small game was won!

In his opinion, the roles played by Rek'Sai and Yin Zreal in these two World Championships are very similar.

It really works in the group stage, but in the knockout stage, it will pull your hips and be abandoned like a shoe!

Gu Xing was mainly responsible for lighting a fire.

Jin Yibo relaxed, "Just wait for tomorrow's RNG match, it shouldn't be a big problem to qualify..."

Before the second round of group matches, he was most worried about Guodian.

Now that EDG has successfully advanced to the quarterfinals, the pressure on Jin Yibo's shoulders has dropped sharply.

RNG is 2-1 in the first round, it is impossible to not even enter the knockout round, right?

"It's best to try to win the first place," Gu Xing said of his wish, "I don't want the top eight to have a civil war."

This is exactly the opposite of Guijiaoqi's wish.

Ming Kai quite hoped for a civil war.

He knows that the evolution trend of the knockout version of the top laner must be the mainstream of the long-handed single-belt top laner.

But his own top laner can't use it, and it's impossible to practice it in a short period of time, so he is at a natural disadvantage.

What's more, it can be seen from the group stage that EDG's state is very average. The early offensive system established by Nofe for a season has almost no use in this incense burner version that emphasizes slow operation!

Mingkai believes that if nothing else happens, EDG World Championship this year will again end in the top eight.

The most honorable ending, then, would be to fall in civil war.

Losing to a brother team in the same competition area is better than losing face to an opponent from another competition area!

Ghost Foot Seven is very familiar with this. In the quarter-finals of the S4 World Championship, they lost to the Royal Family and sent RYL to the semi-finals.

If it weren't for the fact that Nami ate beef noodles in the group stage and ruined her career, no one cared about the performance of EDG, the double champion of the league that year, in the S4 World Championship.

In the end, they also received an IOU from the Royal Club, so that some arrogant piggies and cross-dressers clamored that if EDG could reach the finals, they could win the Summoner Trophy-in fact, if they didn't get a zero seal from Samsung in the finals that year, it would be considered a success!

Anyway, if the strength is not enough and there is no hope of winning the championship, it is the best ending to fall in the civil war and send the brother to the Que family.

In this way, Mingkai also needs RNG to win the first place in Group C, so the probability of civil war will increase to 2/3!

Guijiaoqi looked up at the window of the room where the RNG training room in the Peninsula United Investment Hotel was located. The lights were bright there, and the members of the royal family were obviously still training hard and watching video replays.

"Uzi, do something useful!" He gave the most sincere blessing to his old opponent.

At this moment, a sentence of inarticulate, broken Chinese suddenly came from the side.

"You don't count on Uzi, do you? He really can't do it, one basket..."

Gu Xing didn't even need to look back, he could tell the identity of the visitor just from the tone of his voice and his habitual oral habit.

"Young, isn't this puff!"

He was very pleasantly surprised, grabbed Ju Chengbin, and squeezed his fatter and fatter cheeks to show his closeness.

Imp still has a short and puffy figure, and he has become a lot fatter than when he first arrived in Wuhan three weeks ago.

Behind them are Perkz of similar size and tall Jankos. The three of them get together like a tall nut standing in front of two potato mines.

"It's not interesting to sell you," Gu Chengbin complained, "I don't even say that I came to find a place on my own initiative."

"Ai, isn't it too busy recently..." Gu Xing felt a little guilty when he mentioned it like this.

VG and G2 are not on the same floor in the hotel, and they are in different groups on the field. The game time is basically staggered, and they seldom meet each other even during filming.

Gu Xing was busy with EZ traps and daily training, but only met the two sides for a while after G2 landed in Wuhan and checked into the hotel.

After careful calculation, this was the first time the two met in October.

"By the way, you two are still out for a walk in tomorrow's game?" Duan Deliang asked in surprise.

"Yeah, anyway, it's not bad for a while, isn't it reasonable to come out and relax?" Imp nodded as a matter of course, and his words were crazy, "Furthermore, one in Group C is all baskets. It's not worth mentioning in front of you!"

Perkz also thought so, and immediately echoed, "Imp is right!"

G2 does have crazy capital.

Three wins and zero losses in the first round. Except for some resistance when facing RNG, the remaining two games were crushed.

The power of the European Galaxy Battleship is so terrifying!

"Hurry up and finish playing tomorrow, I still want to go to the bar to play..." Gu Chengbin chuckled.

Ah P showed a tacit smile, presumably because he was full of confidence in tomorrow's game, thinking that Group C would be the first to win.

Jankos looked less optimistic, with a worried look on his face.

He originally wanted to stay in the training room and continue to study the opponents in the group match. The double Cs in the team really couldn't stand the hard work of Lamb, so he insisted on dragging him out for a walk by the river to relax.

Jankos has reason to be concerned.

The quality of G2's recent training matches is really mediocre.

The root cause is not in oneself, but in the opponent.

The strength of that group of teams is almost the same, and they always miss that B Yin Zerui jungler!

Logically speaking, a team with the strength of G2 should be able to easily make an appointment for a training match with a strong team.

But this year is different. After the LPL formed a sparring team, the training matches were basically digested in the competition area.

Furthermore, G2 is a team from outside the competition area after all, and everyone relies on connections to make appointments for training matches. As long as there is no deep hatred, everyone likes to play with fellow countrymen.

As a result, the number of games that G2 can make appointments with Chinese and Korean teams is very limited.

Most of the time, they can only huddle with Europe and the United States to keep warm.

But what good can be gained from training with this group of insects?

Jankos felt very dissatisfied just thinking about it.

With G2's strength, only the Rabbits can catch their eye.

You must know that the main way for the team to maintain a competitive state is not the ranking, but the training match!

If you can't find a suitable opponent for an appointment, you will only play with the stinky chess basket. Not only will you not make progress over time, you may even be at risk of being assimilated!

It's like a player who borrows an account to fry fish at a low level. It's easy to fry for a day or two.

This is what Jankos is afraid of.

If it weren't for the blessing of dragging the substitute Madlife, relying on seniority to make a few appointments with LCK teams, G2 probably won't get anything from the version before the second round of the group stage!

In the first round of the group stage, they were able to win three sets in a row by virtue of their own hard power.

When the second round begins, G2 can never be said to be a sure winner!

On October 14, the second round of Group C started.

RNG came up and crushed RED first, and took the Brazilian wild card that they narrowly won in the last round.

If BrTT's German is banned, the Brazilian team will be completely dead.

The gap with the top league teams is vividly displayed!

However, in 28 minutes, RNG extended the economic advantage to more than 1W, and won the game smoothly.

Immediately afterwards, G2 faced North America's second seed IMT.

Gu Xing took the time to watch the live broadcast of the match during the training match.

Who would have thought that he would not miss the most exciting part of this duel.

G2 wants to be stable in this game and wants to get the qualifying places in the bag first, and then move forward steadily and gradually, and make the snowball bigger little by little.

When the game lasted 30 minutes, the sum of the head scores of the two sides was barely over 10.

The slightly dull operation transfer line made the audience drowsy.

But soon the big one came.

The two teams fought around the fire dragon group, and G2 killed the princess on the IMT first.

Then pursue the victory and kill the support and mid laner one after another!

However, before the death of the IMT players, they all dealt good damage, which lowered the blood volume of the G2 players.

However, this still cannot stop the pace of G2's pursuit.

Beryl's Fengnv added [Amulet of Ascension] and a passive double acceleration effect to her teammates, and the whole team rushed towards the remaining two shooters.

"IMT still has EZ and small cannon. The hero characteristics are more flexible and flashy. It should be easy to run through the wall later..."

As soon as Su Xiaoyan finished speaking, a tsunami-like exclamation suddenly erupted in the auditorium, no less than the volume when VG won the game!

"The situation of gods and demons?" Su Xiaoyan's voice was thin and high-pitched, "What kind of operation is this?!"

, transliterated as Kedisun, is to use my English name as ID.

Originally a native of the old imperial capital, he immigrated to Canada with his parents to join IMT on the stage of the top league as a shooter.

Kedisun is like Sun Xiaochuan, another family member who does all kinds of evil, he is quite abstract.

The same is true for operations.

He operated the small cannon and handed over the flash of betting his career to the G2 crowd, plunged into the enemy's encirclement, and used R [Destroy Shot] to push Ah P's snake girl back to the face of his jungler EZ !

"He actually played Xiaopao into a blind monk, and a wave of whirling cannons came!"

Su Xiaoyan couldn't believe it.

"Ah, this..." Gu Xing was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to evaluate it.

"Is this an operation that humans can do?!" Duan Deliang, who was onlooker, was dumbfounded.

Perkz under the camera was baffled by Xiaopao's abstract operation, and then a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Spread the ground-binding poisonous mist, and two shots of E [Twin Fangs] mercilessly maimed the blood volume of the dazed EZ!

The IMT savages are numb, and their own shooter actually gave him a big treasure!

He never expected that the inner ghost was in the team!

Seeing that Ah P activated the shield provided by Seraphim's Embrace, Yin Zerui resolutely gave up the treatment, stopped at the spot and waited to die, with the IMT team logo dog tag showing above his head.

And handing over the small cannon that flashed the lone army's deep penetration naturally could not escape the fate of being concentrated fire. After winning the double kill, Imp showed two big dies and smiled like a mouse.

After a brief trough, the barrage volume in the live broadcast room immediately occupied the entire screen!

[Damn it, Armstrong cannon! 】

[As expected of the European and American divisions, the ability to rejuvenate is beyond the reach of South Korea! 】

【Qiuqiu, don’t show off, I planed two bowls of rice, I can’t eat anymore】

[Isn't this an actor? Strictly check the phone! 】

[Losing thief, I'm afraid G2 won't be able to catch up with me, so I'll kill my teammates by the way]

[One thing to say, if this small cannon operation is placed on the domestic team, the Weibo headlines will definitely arrange retirement quickly tonight! 】

[I understand everything, isn't it just a copy of Gao Dewei's reverse Q?]

When Gu Xing saw the last barrage, he almost didn't hold back.

In terms of nature, it's pretty much the same.

When Gao Dewei played the reverse Q in that game, his defeat was already confirmed. The same is true for this IMT game. After three heroes are killed, Dalong will definitely lose. Basically, it is a game of steady loss.

But similar operations against the sky are tantamount to taking the blame on yourself!

When everyone mentioned these two games after the game, they definitely didn't think of real war criminals, but Gao Dewei and Kedisun who performed outrageously when they were about to lose!

The director of the good thing specially cut the camera to give Kedisun a close-up.

The optimistic boy couldn't laugh anymore, and he was slumped on the chair with a sad face and doubts about his life.

For a rookie entering the World Championship for the first time, if he can be given a little buffer time, he might be able to clear up his mentality.

But the second round of the group stage did not give time at all!

After losing to G2, IMT fought RNG back to back.

Kedisun was in a daze, and had no chance to adjust, so he rushed to face Uzi.

The result needless to say.

Uzi's full firepower, taking advantage of his illness to kill him, pushed a blood tower in just 11 minutes of laning!

Xiangguo is like a wolf like a tiger raising pigs in the wild area opposite.

As for Xiaohu...

If Gu Xing hadn't seen the post-match statistics panel, he would have almost forgotten that there was such a person as Li Yuanhao.

RNG has high morale and made another victory, won the fourth victory in the World Championship, and guaranteed a qualifying place!

The remaining suspense in the second half is that the Royal Family will compete with G2 for the top spot in Group C.

Then G2 started to work.

When facing the Brazilian wild card RED, Imp seemed to want to show his hero pool in front of the live LPL audience and chose Jinx.

When it was locked down, there were voices of surprise all over the place.

The VG members in the training room felt baffled.

"What is Gu Chengbin going to do?" Gu Xing was puzzled, "Can this version pay for Jinx?"

Although the incense burner version emphasizes the selection of late-stage big-core attack-speed ADCs, Jinx just meets the requirements.

But one is that the strength of the hero is too low, which belongs to the whole sewer in the S7 season.

The second is that one of the reasons why Jinx is strong in the later stage is the activation after participating in the team battle. As long as she can run, she is actually the only one.

But this version of Jinx can't run at all!

The front row is very solid, and Jinx has no real damage or percentage output skills. Just relying on the range advantage of the cannon form, it may not be able to win the head for half a day and start the running mode!

"You cake, right?" Duan Deliang felt anxious for his good brother, "Isn't it too crazy? I really don't think of RED as a human being!"

Perhaps it was the exaggerated operation of the North American Rapier when facing IMT in the first game today, which amused all G2 members, and now they are very happy when they BP.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the G2 players withdrew their smiles and looked dignified.

Looking at the expression, it is almost the same as the comparison picture of IG player S5 before and after facing the fat general.

Because Imp really can't run.

The top laner of the Brazilian wild card played a big bug, and the second one came out with a gargoyle stone armor. The top of the team battle was at the forefront of the formation for 15 seconds without dying!

The front row of G2 was wiped out by RED's back row, and Imp hasn't started yet!

The continuous output of the C position is not at the same level at all!

Even so, G2's personal strength is still online, relying on frequent opportunities to fight back and forth with the opponent.

But when the time came to 60 minutes, G2 finally couldn't stand it anymore.

The frontal group Liushen Jinx can't beat the passive big bug of Liushen's 11th floor ult at all!

The weakening effect of the armor-piercing armor in the spring version is still there, and the armor penetration percentage of Qingyu is not worth mentioning in front of the big bug!

RED fought fiercely for 61 minutes, and after a difficult team battle, they flattened the G2 base!

"It's so tricky," Jack said with emotion, "I don't even know what G2 is thinking!"

"It's normal, just get used to it," Li Zhixun usually watched European competitions, and was very calm at this time, "G2 has always been like this, if you don't know, you may think they bought spinach."

That is to say, the competition system has not yet been reformed. If it becomes a double-lose system like Dota2, G2 may have to play themselves to the loser's bracket every game before killing them back.

"As long as RNG wins the last game, can they become the first in the group?" Jin Yibo repeated this sentence repeatedly, wanting to get a definite answer from the players.

"Yes, yes, yes," Gu Xing finished the training match, and leaned lazily on the backrest, "I just don't know if RNG can win, and the opportunity has come!"

Originally, if G2 was not upset by the wild card, RNG would have to win the opponent and then win a playoff if they wanted to compete for the first place in the group.

Now it doesn't have to be so troublesome.

Only one match, the winner is the first in Group C.

"RNG hurry up!" Jin Yibo highlighted his true feelings, "If you win this game, you will succeed!"

In this game, Letme took out Galio, and the prince who matched the incense pot wanted to make a linkage.

In all fairness, the strength of the top laner Galio is already very low.

But fortunately, I can survive.

G2 obviously hasn't realized the secret of the top laner environment change, and gave Wunder a big tree to fight against.

This is exactly what Letme wanted.

He likes to pull others to mix the line together!

The bottom lane of the two teams is also developing steadily. Beryl is not a lane support, and Ming is also experienced.

In the middle, Ah P made a gap in the matchup. When the game came to 25 minutes, Perkz had a clockwork matchup lead of 40 knives and still had a level and a half of experience.

In the current version is quite an exaggerated advantage!

Too bad it didn't work.

Gu Xing and others made a correct judgment on the evolution direction of the version.

In the later stage, the magic core is limited by the skill cooling time and mana consumption, and its strength is not as stable as that of the shooter.

What's more, the clockwork hasn't shifted yet, and the prince of the incense pot took care of two waves, and the team battle went silent!

G2 has not recovered from the loss in the last 60-minute fierce battle, and the brain cells are almost exhausted, and the brain becomes less clear as the game progresses.

Uzi's little cannon took over the game as a matter of course!

In BO5, Uzi did not win against Imp, but he won a lot of small rounds.

Facts have proved that Uzi, whose mentality does not collapse and does not turn red, is quite trustworthy.

Although Xiaohu tried his best to be invisible, under the cover of Ueno's double front row, Xiaopao continued to jump in the team battle. After establishing an advantage, he started an alternative three-step walk and rolled up equipment snowballs, leading the team to overtake economically and finally win the game!

5-1, RNG won three consecutive victories in the second round and advanced to the quarterfinals!

"Handsome!" Jin Yibo clenched his fists with a red face, "Take down the brothers!"

There was warm applause in the VG training room, cheering for the brother teams in the same competition area.

Three LPL representative teams, two groups first place, definitely completed the task successfully!

In Group D, Dragon Ball unsurprisingly topped the list with 6 victories.

The remaining three teams fought bloody battles, and the Rabbit team narrowly won one step, relying on victory in the extra match to squeeze out C9 and get the last ticket to the quarterfinals!
