What is a hexagon jungler?

After the battle against G2 ended, VG members did not leave the venue immediately.

Because there is another game against the EVOS team in the Vietnam Division that day.

It's just that no one from the audience to the host to the contestants paid attention to their opponents.

Everyone is paying more attention to tomorrow's focus match against KT.

Come on, who will lose to Vietnam?

And it turns out that's true.

EVOS is vulnerable.

This team was established last summer and first entered the top league of the VCS (Vietnam Division) through promotion and relegation. Then in the process of advancing to MSI, it first defeated the Vietnamese hegemon GAM 3:2, and then lost a team in the play-in stage. A wild card, and then successfully entered the main draw.

In just one year, EVOS has advanced from the Vietnamese secondary league to the international competition, which can be regarded as an alternative triple jump!

The experience is legendary, but there is no shortage of similar counterattack stories on the field. In the end, strength will speak for itself.

Compared with the teams in the five major regions, EVOS's strength is still too low.

VG relied on Gu Xing's early rhythm and three-way laning ability to establish a 4K advantage before the transition period began!

The follow-up was even smoother, and it only took Cricket 22 minutes to level the enemy base!

This can be said to be VG's easiest match in the mid-season so far.

Even Kuro can roam freely, riding on the opponent's head and constantly showing off his moves!

VG, which had won all four games in the first two match days, finally gained a foothold at the top of the list.

There is not even a competitor that can constitute a competitive relationship!

Because KT, the only remaining undefeated opponent before, also lost.

The team that defeated them was G2.

It has to be said that in terms of player strength, Tubao is the undisputed Galactic Battleship.

He can also have the upper hand when facing KT!

Top laner Wunder is the weakest in the team, but he still showed amazing operational talent when playing against the newcomer Kiin. During the laning period, he used Ornn's three fragile to kill in the lane!

Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the jungler Xiaoyang. His playing style is both reckless and delicate, and he is naturally capable of restraining the Korean junglers who are known for their stability.

The Korean factory Score's style is exactly the same as that of Guijiaoqi. When a reckless man invades the wild area without thinking, he will panic to death, and he will be helpless and not know how to resist.

Mid laner Perkz was very aggressive against Ucal. He is now the veritable number one mid laner in the two Western major regions. It is not an exaggeration to even say he is the number one mid laner in this MSI. He has both experience and operation, and his matchups are often Able to crush opponents!

As for the bottom lane...

Imp and Mr. Dai, the two members of the Ten Samsung Team, went from OGN to LPL and then to the MSI stage. Nowadays, things have changed, but the two shooters still maintain strong competitiveness.

In terms of status, Deft is slightly better than the half-assed Goo Shengbin, but as we all know, the bottom lane depends more than just the ADC.

There are also assists.

As mentioned before, Mata is now left with only her brain and her hands are completely useless.

Although Beryl is not good at operation, she is still much better than Mata in her twilight years.

After all, G2 actually beat KT in all four positions except shooter!

Coupled with the team's outstanding operational capabilities, KT couldn't get even the slightest benefit from the Snickers team!

G2 relied on the rhythm of the middle and jungle to crush the whole process, and flattened the enemy's main crystal in only 30 minutes!

That night, when Gu Xing was sitting in the hotel cafeteria eating, he saw Imp walking in with his head held high and his chest high.

"Hey, Gu!" Ju Shengbin beamed with joy. He picked up two beef ribs on a plate and ran over, "How's it going? Have you seen my last game?"

"Beat Dapt!" Imp said proudly.

Since the English ‘F’ syllable is not usually involved in Korean, it is basically replaced by ‘P’. For example, when KR announces the ID of Faker, it is pronounced as ‘P’aker.

The same is true for Mr. Dai's nickname, not to mention that Gu Shengbin has a lisp, his tongue is a bit shorter than others, and his pronunciation problem becomes more and more obvious.

"Nike, please pull him down," Gu Xing rolled his eyes at him, picked up the asparagus on the plate and showed it to his mouth, "After the game, the statistical output and KDA are 50-50, do you call this a beating?"

"Let me ask you whether you won or not!" Ju Shengbin said confidently.

"Remember what you said about Jack after we beat us at noon?" Gu Xing smiled, "'For those who didn't know, I thought you had a lot of C's in the game.' Now I'll give it to you intact!"

Imp didn't expect the boomerang to come so fast, and his whole face turned tomato color for a while.

"What you say doesn't count!" Ju Shengbin insisted, "Don't you have a forum? Open it quickly and take a look. People's eyes are sharp!"

Gu Xing clicked on the post bar, and as soon as he entered, he was faced with a rating post for G2's match against KT.

It was full of praise for G2.

Among them, Goo Sung Bin received the most praise.

【As expected of you, puff puff! It’s really powerful! 】

[Good brother, even if you leave VG, you still care about your old club. Back then, you could speak up for CN and get into a fight with KR and break your glasses. Today, you will hit Mr. Dai hard for us and help VG stabilize the top spot! 】

[Rem loved my family, he was so gentle, I really cried to death... What kind of internationalist spirit is this? 】

[The double-championed ADC is really ruthless, even if he can beat the un-championed super soldier! 】

【Bold! I suspect you are hinting at someone! 】

"Did you see that?" Imp said with a cheerful grin, "It means anyone with an eye can see how big a C I am!"

"Look at the post where VG beat us in the last game..." Gu Shengbin was familiar with it, clicking on Gu Xing's phone and browsing another rating post.

"Why are you so good at Jiang Zi?" Gu Xing was quite surprised.

"That's right," Imp puffed up his chest proudly, "You also surfed a lot when you were living in Europe, okay?"

The Reddit forum is usually used here, but as a grumpy old man, Gu Shengbin is definitely not satisfied with the atmosphere there. He thinks that Europeans are too mild-tempered, and their occasional quarrels are mainly based on yin and yang. How can China and South Korea frequently CNM Axiba? The pleasure?

Therefore, Imp has downloaded Tieba on his mobile phone a long time ago. When he has nothing to do, he browses and cares about the current situation of his old VG teammates. Now he is naturally proficient in the operation.

"Look, what did I say?" Imp immediately became angry and shouted loudly, "Even if Ni Meng wins the nest, he won't get everyone's recognition!"

Gu Xing hadn't been to Tieba today. Hearing Gu Shengbin's words, he quickly focused on his mobile phone.

As Imp said, Tieba is generally very dissatisfied with VG.

[Who can tell me what these pair of C's are doing? 】

[Jack’s escape show in the middle really amused me. He ran back with Kai’Sa’s Plasma Flash. You were afraid that Imp wouldn’t be able to catch up with you, right? 】

[It’s really pure Five, Uenosuke is working hard to cover up, VG double C is still giving away! 】

[One thing to say, Brother Xing’s punishment for grabbing the dragon is too harsh. I feel that if the junglers are swapped, G2 can get off work ten minutes earlier! 】

[Does this need to be said by you? My grandma can win the championship even when playing with Brother Xing! 】

[When the S7 VG was first formed, I said that their double C was the team’s shortcoming, and now it’s finally proven]

[You can really scream, everything about the S7 season has to be brought out... Why didn't I see you jumping out to pinch me when I won the championship? 】

"Ho ho ho, is there so much pressure?" Gu Shengbin laughed heartily, "It's a pity that Jack is not here, otherwise I would definitely have to show this post to him!"

"That's almost it," Gu Xing saw how arrogant he was and gave his own explanation, "If you have the guts, check out the Reddit forum. They must be scolding G2!"

"We are always harsher on our own people, so we should be more tolerant towards others."

The reason is simple. What does the life and death of outsiders have to do with me?

Without a position, the evaluation will become more fair, and in the eyes of Kangba Maggot Baby, VG is their own team, and their recent performance in the competition has fluctuated, so it is reasonable for them to be anxious to start complaining.

Gu Shengbin devoured the beef ribs, wiping his mouth and wanting to go back to the training room to review today's two major battles.

"Sui Gu, you must work hard tomorrow!" He encouraged Gu Xing before leaving, "Help me kill Daiput!"

Imp and Mr. Dai have always had a good personal relationship, and they are considered to be one of the few KR friends.

Out of friendship, he certainly hopes that Deft's career will be like a soaring dragon.

But you must not fly higher than me!

The previous international competitions they participated in at the same time were the three global finals from 2014 to 2016. Except for S5, Gu Shengbin's results were better than those of Mr. Dai.

Of course, the difference between the top eight and sixteen in 2015 is not very big. Apart from being better than those at home, it will basically not bring any positive benefits.

This mid-season tournament is the fourth international tournament that the Samsung AD twins have participated in together, and Imp wants to see Mr. Dai fail.

"Can you look behind you when you say this?" Gu Xing complained silently, "Forget it, Deft doesn't understand Chinese anyway."

While Gu Shengbin was sighing at the superb team-building skills of his former jungler, he turned his head and saw Deft who looked like an alpaca.

The alpaca was gnawing grass, working hard on the green salad on the dinner plate, looking at Imp and Gu Xing with confused eyes that didn't understand why.

Although he has been with EDG for two years, he does not understand Chinese very well.

The only thing I can understand is my ID.

At this moment, seeing the two people who were having a conversation looking at each other, Deft quickly showed a gentle smile and said hello to his old rival.

"Wow, isn't this Deft?" Imp had just done bad things behind his back, but now he didn't feel shy at all. He went up and hugged Mr. Dai and started rubbing the alpaca's head.

"What was Ni Meng talking about just now?" Deft asked Gu Shengbin in Korean. It's not that his tongue was half short, it was just that his cheek was pinched by the other party, so he couldn't speak clearly.

Imp's face didn't change, "I'm praising you for playing well. I feel like you guys can't have an advantage in the bottom lane because this old loser Mata is dragging you down..."

Gu Shengbin has always looked down on his former assistant Matachuan. Firstly, once upon a time, the opponent would whisper in his ear that he was not as good as Mr. Dai whenever he played in a training match. Secondly, this guy has a bad temper and likes to play games based on seniority. Often bossing him around.

Imp is annoyed the most by those guys who have a bigger temper than him. The people he has close personal relationships with, such as Mr. Hou, Gu Xing, Deft and Looper, are all kind-hearted and easy to get along with.

Now he will never let go of the opportunity to add insult to injury and step on Mata first.

Gu Xing took advantage of the gap between the three stars and the twin stars to communicate, greased the soles of his feet and trotted away as a trick.

The next day, VG led by him faced KT.

After adjusting the version understanding, VG's lineup is obviously more suitable for the game environment.

The team-starting tool player on the top lane + the strong line power role in the mid lane, coupled with the support of platoon protection, jointly create an output environment for the shooter!

KT's coaching staff is obviously not very good. On the third day of the main game, they couldn't find the answer to the version.

They only understand that this is in line with the trend of the version.

In addition, top laner Kiin is actually still playing vampire protection to delay development!

This is exactly what VG wants!

Song Jinghao single-handedly commanded Orn, the flag of command, and tortured the vampire to death with his magic-free soldiers!

Vladimir took a sip, and the cannon cart didn't move at all!

Kiin was under pressure from the troops and was forced to stay on the sideline to deal with the Flag of Command artillery truck. Smeb would not be idle.

Anyway, the minion bounty added by the artillery truck will also be given to himself. He decisively went to the front and used Ornn's long-distance team-fighting ability to threaten KT.

As long as KT's front-line players are afraid of Ornn's existence and give up part of their lane rights and jungle resources, Song Jinghao's goal will be achieved!

Gu Xing discussed the time with Smeb every time he invaded. As soon as the flag of command turned good, he would immediately run into the enemy jungle. With the help of line rights and Ornn's cover, he could often achieve something!

KT was distracted by their opponent's play, and they wanted to take advantage of the short gap when Ornn was on the sideline to start a team fight in the middle.

However, when there is a gap in vision, the chance of winning by forcing a group start is not high.

The moment the team battle started, Smeb teleported to the ward behind KT's formation.

Land on the ground and hit the sheep with R, trying to completely tear the enemy formation into pieces!

In order to dodge Ornn's molten element, the KT team members' positions were divided into two parts. Gu Xing led his teammates to defeat them one by one, and finally won the team battle with 1 for 4!

The dragon has been reborn, and VG easily captured Baron Nash due to the absolute difference in numbers!

The balance of victory and defeat tilted further towards them.

Relying on Smeb's command flag, VG completely stretched KT's defensive space, and continuously attacked the city through the Baron BUFF, quickly expanding the economic lead to around 1W, and completely establishing the victory!

Kiin's vampire was single-handedly defended by the Banner of Command for a whole game. In the end, he wanted to create a miracle. He used the unsealed secret book to sprint, entered the field with E and R from the side, and launched a surprise attack on the VG members on his own high ground!

Everyone in KT followed the vampire, planning to swarm up and beat the old master to death with random punches in an attempt to counterattack!

However, Ornn turned around and used a big move to call the sheep. The first stage of deceleration was combined with the second stage of knockback, so that no KT team member could keep up with the vampire's forward pace!

Duan Deliang followed Jack, working diligently to protect his teammates and deal with the vampires first.

When Kiin's ultimate move [Blood Plague] was about to explode, he added a bird shield and used the shield value increased by the group to offset most of the damage from the vampire's R skill!

Immediately, the VG team members counterattacked on the spot, and Gu Xing's Prince EQ flashed into the battlefield, disrupting Mr. Dai's output efficiency and helping his own back row to deal with the enemy's front row first.

What followed was a devastating explosive output performance!

The VG team destroyed the opponent and ended the game in one wave!

"Five wins in a row!"

The moment the crystal exploded, Miller raised his arms on the commentary table and shouted, "Even though the recent state has been slightly ups and downs, VG still ended the first cycle of the group stage with a complete victory!"

"The two favorites, G2 and KT, both fell in front of VG's sword!"

The doll also smiled, "It turns out that VG is just a technical adjustment, so there is no need to rush!"

LPL viewers finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw VG cleanly defeat KT.

[Guigui, what a smooth attacking rhythm, Ye Qinghui! I think VG can study in advance how to celebrate after winning the championship]

[Heizi comes out to speak! There was a lot of trouble online a few days ago. For those who didn’t know better, I really thought VG was at the bottom, but when I looked at the rankings, it won them all? 】

[It can only be said that VG has fallen into a trough, but that is because compared with itself, other teams have been forced to compete with each other. Are you not worthy of me? 】

[Knead the numbness, the wind direction changes quickly? You really win and lose, right? Yesterday I was still looking down on VG, and today I started booking the championship again? 】

[To be honest, I still feel unstable, at least the G2 version is not weaker than VG! 】

[Because we lost the game through punishment, it doesn’t count as a loss, right? It makes it seem like someone is pointing a gun at G2 from behind to beat Baron]

[Haha, wait and see if you don’t accept it, just the Perkz point in the middle is enough for VG to drink a pot]

[Welcome to enjoy the book "Still Talking Hard"! 】

As a result, after two days of rest, the second round of the round robin proved that some netizens were really not being stubborn.

G2 showed unparalleled dominance!

The racing performance bulldozed Evos in 19 minutes and 58 seconds, Linglong Tower smashed Flash Wolves in 21 minutes, crushed and defeated Liquid in 23 minutes, and Baron forced the team to destroy KT's base in the last wave to achieve a double kill in the group stage...

Four consecutive victories all the way!

The most noteworthy one is the game against KT.

KT didn't make any progress during the two-day offseason.

They are also adjusting their understanding of the version. If the coaching staff is not good enough, then the players will catch it. Mata gives full play to the role of the team's brain, sees through the system gameplay that both G2 and VG are using, and quickly works overtime to practice it.

But even so, they were still beaten by G2!

Everyone knows that G2 has started the super evolution of this mid-season!

Looking back at VG, their results in the second round robin were not ideal.

Still the same problem as before.

Although they have figured out the version, the team's current structure does not support perfect adaptation.

The roaming mid laner hero developed by Kuro is a good substitute, but it is impossible for Redmi to reveal its hidden tricks in the group stage.

The same goes for EZ, which Jack has been practicing.

As a result, VG's performance on the field is still severely acclimatized!

In the second round, they lost to KT, ending their winning streak.

The previous victory in the first round was because VG relied on the coaching staff to gain an advantage in understanding the version and ambush KT, catching the opponent off guard.

Now that the opponent's version understanding has also caught up, VG's advantage is gone without using their trump cards!

Kiin followed the crowd and started playing with tank tanks, stuffed the flag of command into his backpack, and started messing around with Song Jinghao.

Mid laner Ucal is looking for a 1v1 duel with Kuro.

After all, he is a young man with better talent and has a natural advantage against the old guys.

Li Ruixing was forced back to the city by the opponent's frequent exchanges, and the center lane was completely lost. The direct consequence was that Gu Xing was very uncomfortable.

Not to mention ganking with rhythm, it has become extremely difficult for him to even guard his own jungle area!

In the last 42 minutes of the game, KT relied on the outstanding performance of Ucal Zoe in the ancient dragon team battle, and took the lead in crippling VG players through long-distance poke consumption, and successfully controlled the crucial ancient dragon with more hits and less!

With double dragon attribute blessings and real damage burning, KT simply forced a group start without being reasonable. Relying on the increase in combat power provided by the ancient dragon BUFF, the group successfully destroyed the opponent and flattened the main crystal!

After losing to KT, VG faced Liquid.

This game is quite easy. As mentioned before, TL's strengths are on the two wings, and the level of the mid-unit is average.

Not only does Kuro have no pressure, he can also suppress his opponent!

As you can imagine, liquid is also struggling in the updated game environment!

Facing TL who was also in trouble, Gu Xing showed no mercy. He raised his knife and launched waves of suffocating attacks, sending the opponent away happily!

Just when fans thought that KT's loss was just due to the player's occasional abnormal performance, Flash Wolves came to challenge and almost dethroned VG!

It has to be said that compared to Team Liquid, Flash Wolves have become extremely adaptable to the current environment.

Top laner Fire Dragon Hanabi is a tough guy, mid laner Fengtang is at his peak, and the team as a whole is focused on keeping the bottom...

Every understanding of the current competition environment is consistent with Flash Wolves!

Although War Horse is not able to follow the version independently, he can copy it.

He directly understood the BP of a strong team and used it for his own purposes, but unexpectedly created big trouble for VG!

The game remained deadlocked until 48 minutes, and VG managed to end the game with the help of a good team attack from Song Jinghao Sain.

Immediately after winning against Evos, they had to face G2 again.

VG still performed very hard. G2's mid-term rhythm points all relied on the strong point Perkz. Gu Xing was helpless in the 2V2 midfield confrontation with no chance of winning!

This time, G2 did not play the plot where the dragon ruined their lives. Instead, they steadily expanded their advantage little by little, until they seized the opportunity to kill VG's only possibility of grabbing the dragon, and then turned around to fight Baron Nash!

It seems to be extremely stable!

Relying on the Baron BUFF, G2 established a winning streak and ended the game in one wave!

After this matchup, VG's group stage record was fixed at 8 wins and 2 losses, ranking second, only behind G2 who won the second round and ended with 9-1.

However, fans are not satisfied with this.

In the few days after the group stage ended, major e-sports forums were filled with posts about VG.

[I really vomited. When did watching VG games become a roller coaster ride? Gods and ghosts appear one after another, and the state is never stable! 】

[One thing to say: Isn’t this quite stable? The hard power is just not as good as G2. If it weren’t for Baron in the first round, we would probably end up like KT and get killed by a double kill]

[What is Redmi doing? Hurry up and study the version. All our players are heroes. What are you doing all day long? 】

【Sea of ​​heroes? Don't make me laugh. In all versions, Kuro will play half of Zoe in the mid lane. The rest are just some rubbish proficiency? Will Dao Mei snatch it? Even if I choose it for you, it won’t be of any use. Even zombies are better than Kuro! 】

【that is! Now VG is struggling. Nine times out of ten, the problem is with the mid laner. So far in this MSI, I have never seen a game where I can win the lane by myself. As long as Brother Xing doesn’t come to the middle, everything can be seen on the screen. Kuro was pinned under the tower and beaten violently! 】

[Some VG fans are too disgusting, are they trying to bully their teammates like this? 】

[If you don’t get criticized for your food, is it possible that you need to use love to influence it? If your level is low, get optimized and get out of here. Don’t delay other teammates! 】

[No way, who can let Kuro know how to lick? I have hugged Brother Xing’s thick legs for a long time. It is impossible for VG to change the mid laner]

Public opinion was abuzz, and the shortcomings of too many fans were finally exposed.

There are too many hills.

Some like the older generation of VG and approve of Gu Xing and Duan Deliang, the pair of wild assistants who stayed in the team in S7; some are remnants of the Tigers and followed the middle and upper two to move their fans from ROX to VG; and there are also those who like Gu Xing and Jack at the same time. To the VG savior...

In addition, there are also a large number of supporters who have become fans of the team because VG has won successive championships.

We had been winning games smoothly before, and fans of all types rarely acted like monsters. Everyone was calm and discussed who was playing well recently, and the atmosphere was harmonious and supportive of each other.

But as long as the performance on the field declines, fans will inevitably have friction, and it is not uncommon to blame others.

Today, VG Weibo is superior in the superior talk. Gu Xing's iron powder thinks that Kuro is too useless. You enjoyed it a lot when you were online, but now you immediately turn your back on others when your status fluctuates. You are really an ungrateful scumbag.

In terms of momentum alone, Gu Xing’s fans have the absolute upper hand.

Without him, it's really because of the disparity in numbers - most of the VG team's fans are focused on Gu Xing. As long as the main character doesn't collapse, there will be no fight that the fans can't win!

And judging from the performance on the field, the argument that the mid laner is useless is very reasonable.

However, the atmosphere within the VG team was not affected.

It’s not because the contestants haven’t surfed recently. They not only visit Tieba, but also post super-talk posts. Sometimes they even spread them in WeChat groups for each other’s amusement.

It's because they have enough self-confidence to fight for a turnaround in public opinion!

In the training room, Hongmi watched Jack using Jin Wenhe's trumpet to kill Ezreal in a winning streak in the European server, with a smile on his face.

"I'm so exhausted, buddy!"

The lazy dog ​​Yu Wenbo stretched, "I practiced 50 EZ games in 8 days. Your mother's kiss makes me want to vomit when I see EZ now!"

"The effect is still good," Hongmi praised, "young people are quick to practice heroes."

Jack immediately became proud, "Of course! This is a pure sea of ​​heroes, how can there be heroes who don't know how to do it?!"

He then reminded, "However, after the level is increased, the number of players is relatively small. This trumpet only plays EZ and it is easy to cause people to follow suit. I have found that many people are practicing EZ in the past two days. It is estimated that they will be able to do it in two days." Study Dai Zhichun’s routines.”

"I know," Hongmi nodded, "the kings of the European server may not be very good at operation, but they are really strong..."

To a certain extent, it is also a reflection of the culture of the competition area.

For example, the LPL, which is good at chaotic battles, the Chinese server is famous for its violent attacks, and only those who are alive are qualified to last hits.

The most proficient thing in the European server is complete work. Hongmi has no doubt that with the scientific research capabilities of this group of people, the card invented by Dai Zhichun will be made public soon!

"In this case, we don't need to hide anymore," he decided, "choose directly in the semi-finals, before the opponent realizes the problem, just kill the opponent and catch them off guard!"

Hongmi looked at the schedule calendar.

As the first team in the group, G2 will face the fourth-placed Flash Wolves in the semifinals.

VG's opponent is KT, ranked third.

"The decision is made by you!" Hongmi smiled proudly, feeling like she was trying to imitate the three great Uchiha heroes, "Wait to die KT!"

Zhou Shuyi is really awesome, and it is quite fun to watch some news during the offseason.

Germany is so ruthless. I didn’t expect that the U.S.-Canada battle, which I was so boastful about before the game, would actually be for third place, hehe.
