What is a hexagon jungler?

"One to one!" Caedrel's face lit up, "G2 made a strong comeback after adjusting well and successfully regained the victory!"

"Just fight like this," Vedius said happily, "I finally understand. As long as Kuro is restricted, the mid laner will have no lane rights, and VG will be vulnerable!"

In the blink of an eye, the G2 fans present shook off the depression that had enveloped them after losing the first game, and happily waved light sticks and support banners in the stands.

The loud "Let's go G2" resounded through the Zenith Stadium again.

"Both sides are back on the same starting line again, and the winner will be determined through BO3..." Caedrel said in a brisk tone, "The good news is that we still have the right to choose sides in the next and fifth games!"

"The advantage is mine. Summoners who support G2 can continue to watch with confidence!"

The VG members hurriedly returned to the backstage lounge. Hongmi's face was tense, and it seemed that he was obviously not satisfied with the previous game.

"Jack, you still gave too many opportunities in the early stage," he patiently communicated with Yu Wenbo, "The opponent's jungler is too fat in the early stage, and it's hard to do anything."

"I'm already very cautious!" Jack felt that he was wronged. "Who would have thought that Jankos would be such a shameless person?"

"If you don't catch him once, don't leave. If you go around in a circle and come back to gank, who can withstand this?" Yu Wenbo Xiaoxiong spread his hands.

"Moreover, the offensive pressure from the opposite side is too great. I have to be very nervous even if I am replenishing my troops, for fear that someone will attack me from the side... I didn't feel that they were that strong when I met them last year!" He thought about what happened in the last game. , couldn't help but complain.

Gu Xing was convinced.

The current G2 team is completely different from the one they faced in the quarterfinals of last year's World Championship.

At that time, the top lane environment changed drastically. Song Jinghao and Gu Xing both exerted their strength, and the gap in the top and jungle was difficult to make up. They caught the Snickers team by surprise. VG could kill G2 with just a single point push!

It's completely different now.

When the top laner is facing a mix, G2 doesn't have to worry about Wunder's life and death at all. They focus on pointing the finger at the lower half and can exert unprecedented high pressure on Jack!

Of course, what is more critical is the change in the mid laner's gameplay.

In the S7 World Championship, except for Syndra, who was popular for a while in the group stage, it later became the stage for heroes such as Galio and Grasshopper.

Kuro is like a duck in water, able to drag Perkz into the mixed-school field he is most familiar with, and then defeat the opponent through his rich experience!

But now the gangster hero is not strong in the middle. Looking at the 6 participating teams in the entire MSI, Kuro is the only one who uses a wandering tool man role.

Fighting in the middle lane with real swords and guns is the mainstream gameplay!

Now the situation between the two parties can be said to be reversed. G2 has become the darling of the version, and VG has become the outcast!

How to fight against the version and the fluctuating player status and carve out a way out of the adverse trend is the core problem that VG needs to solve urgently.

If it cannot be solved, VG will never be able to win the championship trophy beyond G2!

Hongmi frowned.

In the last game, he used regular BP.

It turns out to be really hard to win.

"Let's do this in the next game," he came up with another plan and expressed his thoughts, "I will choose Karma for Ruixing. You try to stabilize in the middle. Just drag Perkz online, and then wait for the salesman to do it. Things, slowly build up your advantage!"

"The other thing is the bottom lane. We must be more vigilant. We must not let Jankos frequently grab the rhythm!"

In short, Hongmi's idea is to stabilize in three directions, open up the battle and hand the ball to Gu Xing for him to play singles.

"If you choose Karma, you will feel more comfortable against Queshi," Kuro thought along with Redmi's logic and expressed his confusion, "But the mid-jungle linkage is much different!"

In the last game, Li Ruixing took control of Grasshopper. Although the laning was relatively difficult, relying on the stable control of R [Grip of Hades], Gu Xing's gank was still able to achieve considerable gains.

Moreover, delaying it until the mid-to-late stage can also force G2 to sacrifice economy to produce mercury, maximizing functionality.

If he were to switch to Karma, the only hard control he would have would be the W Spirit Chain, which would take effect with a delay, and his linkage ability with the jungle would be greatly reduced!

At the same time, this is not the S7 World Championship. The strength of the incense burner has been weakened by the designer. As a result, Kalma's current strength is quite average and its status is quite embarrassing.

As an all-powerful equipment, its own damage is limited - after all, it only has a serious output skill; as a functional equipment such as Incense Burner Redemption, it is not as powerful as the S7.

"But Karma is already the best choice for you at the moment," Hongmi said bluntly, "You can't go to spell core with Perkz, right?"

Li Ruixing was silent.

With his current strength, a head-on confrontation with Perkz would undoubtedly be a dead end!

When Hongmi saw Vincent pushing the door open to remind the players that the break between games was about to end, he decided, "Let's do it this way. Remember what I said, you must open up space to stabilize the line and create room for Gu Gu to play!"

The strategy he formulated was also effective at the beginning of the third set.

When all three lanes of VG are stable during the laning phase, Gu Xing can really show off his skills.

In the first 15 minutes of the game, he launched four successful ganks, successfully accumulating an economic advantage of nearly 3K for VG.

But G2's resilience is beyond imagination.

Beryl, who has reached a mature stage, organized the team's operational transition in an orderly manner. During the strategizing, VG did not open up too much of a gap!

The economic gap between the two sides has never exceeded the 5k mark, and the gap is mainly concentrated on Ye Fu - Gu Xing and Duan Deliang participated in many battles and tower demolition work, and shared a lot of team bounties.

G2 is also consciously transferring economy to Double C in the mid-term to ensure that the absolute core equipment in the team can keep up with VG's Double C.

At the 31st minute of the game, Gu Xing finally took the initiative in a line of troops without sacrificing human resources through the deployment and operation of hoarding and pushing lanes on the road.

Then he led his team to forcefully squeeze out the middle line of troops.

In this way, the middle and upper lines of troops are all in hand, and the VG team calmly moves to the Dalong Pit!

Since the troops on the top lane were slowly accumulating, they were barely able to cross the middle line now. G2 had no time to deal with them separately. They simply chose to deal with all the creeps on the middle lane, and then scanned all the way into the upper river!

Gu Xing was already prepared for this.

He just wants to use the baron as bait to trick G2 into leaving the defense tower and coming to pick up the team!

At the beginning of the team battle, VG relied on the equipment advantages accumulated through economic differences to gain a certain health advantage and significantly reduced the enemy's front row status.

VG fans in the stands cheered early, thinking that the team battle in Bodalongkeng would end with a resounding victory for the home team.

But when G2's double C adjusted its output position and began to deal crazy damage, the situation immediately became uncomfortable.

VG's C position in the back row did not kill G2's front row with poor health. Instead, G2 took care of Song Jinghao first!

"Imp Kai'Sa's damage is really exaggerated!" Baby was dumbfounded. "Although the equipment is half a piece behind, the output is indistinguishable from Jack's Verus!"

The advantages of the Daughter of the Void as the top shooter in the version are revealed. The percentage damage provided by the plasma and the attack speed + stealth characteristics given by E [Extreme Overload] make her output environment in the later team battles naturally better than that of short-term players without displacement. Leg shooter Verus!

Jack is doing his best to output, but when he encounters the threat from the enemy's front row, he still has to hand over his flash to pull. No matter how keen his output sense is, he will be forced to miss some output gaps.

"Perkz's Snake Girl is also outrageous. With the three-piece suit in hand, he can bite through a section of Prince Duan's health bar with one strike of his twin fangs!"

Millerton felt bad, "The output capabilities of the C positions of both sides are completely different!"

Kuro Karma still plays the incense burner redemption style. Although he also has Seraph, a magically powerful equipment, in terms of output ability, it is definitely not comparable to Ah P's Snake Girl!

He released an RQ at the beginning of the team battle to deal with the explosion - this is also the reason why VG was able to occupy the advantage on the scene in the early stage of the battle.

But immediately Kuro, who was in a skill vacuum period, could only OB from the side, occasionally fastening the dog leash or setting up a shield for his teammates.

"Brother Xing saw that something was wrong and rushed forward to limit Imp's output environment, but Perkz immediately handed over his petrifying gaze, forcing Brother Xing to turn around and evade... Imp entered the invisible state and once again accelerated to distance himself from the VG members!"

The doll's heart was beating violently, and he stared at the team battle situation intently.

Even though his game understanding is not outstanding, he can also see that the current situation is very unfavorable to VG.

"Prince Duan was also chased and bitten by the snake girl... Almost everyone in the front row of VG was dead before Jack shot Wunder to death with one arrow!"

"VG seems to be losing this team battle!" Watanabe couldn't believe it.

After the front row collapsed, VG's C position was exposed to G2!

Beryl used the bull head to decisively step forward to save someone!

Gu Shengbin even opened R and flew to the side and rear of the VG formation, blocking the enemy's retreat with his body.

Heavy rain in Ikasia!

The projectiles poured down, and combined with a basic attack, Kuro was instantly killed!

Then use the refreshed E [Extreme Overload] to escape into the void, avoid Jack's lock, and drag his teammates to catch up before revealing himself and continuing to output!

"Isn't Kai'Sa too handsome?" Even though I was on the opposite side of G2, I had to admit that the smoothness of Gu Shengbin's operation was really pleasing to the eye.

In the end, G2 relied on double C and played a wave of 3 for 5 under the headwind situation of the economy being 4K behind!

The surviving Snake Girl + Kai'Sa ate a fruit plate in the upper river to replenish their health, and then attacked Baron Nash!

Relying on spell machine gun and plasma percentage damage, G2 double C worked together to quickly capture the dragon!

At this point, G2 has completely equalized the economic gap!

The VG fans who had cheered in advance in the stands fell silent, holding their heads in their hands and looking at the big screen with incredulous eyes.

What replaced it was the roaring sound in the Zenith Stadium!

G2 fans were extremely happy, shouting at the top of their lungs, expressing their inner emotions to their heart's content!

"Why is this happening?!" Wawa said that he couldn't accept it. "VG's handling of the entire team battle was flawless, so why did they still lose when they were ahead economically?"

He believes that economic leadership must have advantages.

Just like the famous saying of the year, "The damage is particularly high when you are ahead."

Now that the objective laws that he believed in his heart are being challenged, Wawa is puzzled.

"The lineup is so bad!" Miller sighed. "Karma's damage in the middle and late stages is very average. He only relies on the incense burner to protect the shooter... This is not S7. Jiang Ziwan has no chance of winning in a serious game!"

The director gives the output panel of the previous team battle.

Imp slashes 7000 damage, Ah P can also contribute more than 6000 output, double C shines and dominates team battles!

Looking back at VG, Jack's damage is close to 7K, barely able to tie with Ju Shengbin.

But the output of Kuro's production is only 2200 points, which is far behind Ah P!

With two super output points, it is normal for G2 to win the single-core VG in a head-to-head battle!

The economically leading team battle was not won, and the subsequent game trend after G2 took the advantage can be imagined!

At the 37th minute of the game, G2 relied on the Ancient Dragon to force the team and tried to launch a final attack.

Song Jinghao's Ornn started the team very well, hitting two enemy heroes including Snake Girl.

But even so, VG still didn't win!

After Perkz landed, he launched his ultimate move and dealt all the damage before dying. Then it was time for Imp to take over the battle!

"Ka'Sa scored four kills, G2 will flatten VG's base and end this game!"

At 37 minutes and 55 seconds, the VG base was detonated by Kai'Sa's basic attack!

The baby's eyes went straight, and his tone became extremely weak, "Two to one, G2 took the lead in winning the championship point!"

"With only one small round left, G2 will win the 2018 MSI championship trophy."

"Something's wrong, something's really wrong..."

And the atmosphere at the scene exploded!

G2 fans all over the mountains and plains were already in a carnival, sending cheers like a tsunami to the host!

On the stage, Gu Xing took off his headphones and shook his head helplessly.

Next to him, Kuro's face became paler as he listened to the vast sounds of cheering for G2.

He clicked the client twice unconsciously, glanced at the post-match data panel, and all the light in his eyes went out. He picked up the paper cup and turned to walk backstage, his shoulders slumped down, and his whole person was full of despair.

The joys and sorrows of people are not the same. At this moment, VG has finally become a negative teaching material.

"Wuhu!" Ju Shengbin's little short legs jumped up, "How does that swollen Kasha look like? Isn't she special?"

His English is not very standard, but fortunately the G2 team is like this. There are no players from pure English-speaking countries. Everyone generally has an accent, but they can actually understand each other's meaning.

"That's awesome!" Perkz beamed, "I knew you could definitely take over the game, and it turned out that you lived up to my expectations... Our Snake Girl can do it too, right?"

"Great!" Gu Shengbin gave him a thumbs up and praised him, "You deserve a share of the credit for winning the MVP in this game!"

This drama of asking for credit is often performed in the VG team. After Imp joined G2, he brought traditional arts with him. As a result, the Snickers team is now a group of guys who brag about each other's rainbow farts.

"Work harder in the next set," Beryl said with a smile, hugging her two dwarfs backstage, "Let's try to win 3:1!"

"That's right," Perkz also had the same view, "It's over quickly. Without the Dragon King on the other side, there's no match for me... We're still waiting to open the champagne party. Then we'll record a video and send it to Virtue, okay. Taunt this guy!"

He bared his teeth and showed an extremely optimistic smile.

Seeing the G2 players smiling happily when they left the stage, millions of netizens in the LPL live broadcast room couldn't stand it.

The chat channel is filled with all kinds of barrages.

[I'm vomiting, Ah P's ridiculous champion face makes me sick! 】

[Sent Brother Cute! Get ready to watch the G2 awards ceremony...]

[Don’t worry, don’t worry first, the finals are not over yet, why will VG lose on loan? 】

[Don’t make me laugh, anyone with a discerning eye can see that VG is already at the end of its rope and doesn’t have any trump cards]

[Especially this mid laner Kuro, Dragon King Iban went to jail on the spot, right? Is it useful to choose Kalmar B? Your mind is still stuck in the S7 World Championship? 】

[It really made me laugh. In the nearly 40-minute game, Karma did less than 20,000 damage, which was just half of Ah P’s. Is such a tough mid laner worthy of playing in the MSI finals? 】

[Spicy is really awesome. Why didn’t you say anything when Dragon King Carry was in the audience in the first game? 】

[At this moment, who would have thought that this version of Kuro is really a unique guy, without the Dragon King, is it bullshit? 】

[If VG loses the championship, swim back quickly and don’t embarrass yourself outside! 】

The atmosphere in the VG backstage lounge was unprecedentedly negative.

Song Jinghao, who was usually optimistic and cheerful, said nothing and leaned against the wall without knowing what he was thinking.

As soon as Kuro entered the door, he lay down on the chair, covered his face with his hands and began to shut himself up.

Although his facial expressions were not revealed, his sadness and powerlessness could be felt from a distance.

He knew very well where the team lost in the last game. As a mid laner, he was unable to provide sufficient output for the team in the current version. He felt extremely ashamed!

Jin Wenhe grabbed a pack of tissues and went over to try to comfort his mid laner, while Gu Xing didn't care about his teammates' emotions and was still discussing the next game strategy with the coach.

"Simply playing Karma won't work. This version of the jungle generally does no damage, and the top laner is also a front-rower. All the output pressure is placed on Jack alone. As long as G2 doesn't get sick, we can't win!"

he said urgently.

"I know..." Hongmi held her chin with her hand, looking extremely anxious.

The team is currently at a point of no return, with no room for trial and error!

This puts Hongmi, as the head coach, under a lot of pressure.

He was afraid that one mistake by BP in the next game would ruin the whole team's hard work for half a year!

Since VG has not played a life-or-death game for a long time, it is rare for Hongmi to experience the sense of urgency with a racing heart.

"But how to solve the problem of insufficient output?" Hongmi looked back and found that Kuro's eyes were red and he was obviously on the verge of emotional collapse. "The magic core is probably strong enough to be used..."

It's not that Kuro can't play core. The problem is that after taking it out, his declining strength cannot support him to seize the lane rights. As a result, Ah P will do whatever he wants to put pressure on the jungle during the laning period.

This is the reason why Hongmi has never chosen a Dharma core for Li Ruixing.

Selecting the output in the later stage is enough, but the rhythm in the early stage is a big problem!

What's more, with Kuro's current state, Redmi can't trust him to hand over the output burden!

Gu Xing took a deep breath.

"How about I do it."

Hongmi was stunned for a moment, "Why don't you come...could it be that you want to go to the middle?"

The translator Hou Ye inexplicably remembered a famous meme he had seen on the Chinese Internet before - Coach, I want to play mid lane!

A double entender fully demonstrates the breadth and depth of the Chinese language.

"No, what I mean is... leave the output task to me," Gu Xing said with determination, "Let Rui Xing assist me. Even if it's late, it won't be a problem. I can carry the game!"

"Have you thought about it?" Hongmi hesitated, "The wild core play style is reverse version."

Except for the male gun, the other two wild cores have problems with their own hero strength, not to mention that this version is obviously to rely on double C to support the bottom.

Selecting wild cores is likely to have counterproductive effects!

"Think about it," Gu Xing replied resolutely, "The matter has come to this, and we have no way out."

"Instead of continuing to repeat the plot of the previous game with a lineup that has insufficient output, it is better to try to make changes," he looked at Hongmi, "Maybe it will work wonders!"

Hongmi was convinced by her own jungler, "Okay, I'll listen to you, I will try my best to arrange BP..."

He also knows that if he chooses the lineup for the first two games now, he will give up MSI.

In this case, let's try playing a wild game and become a live doctor!

After taking care of the coach, Gu Xing turned around and walked towards Kuro.

"Rui Xing, cheer up, the game is not over yet."

Li Ruixing was like a zombie, his whole person was extremely decadent, and it was clear that he had no hope of winning.

"It doesn't make sense, I've worked really hard, why can't I win..." He muttered, holding the tissue handed to him by the team leader, leaving marks on it.

When Gu Xing saw this, he sighed in his heart.

In competitive sports, hard work is important, but it is not everything.

Because there will always be someone who works harder than you and is even more talented.

He had seen a lot of them when he was competing in the Mathematical Olympiad. Those geniuses were basically not human beings. They only used routine operations to draw inferences from one example to other cases. They had superior comprehension ability and were also very hardworking. A casual move would make him look up to them.

Because of this, Gu Xing was able to put himself in someone else's shoes and understand Kuro's mental collapse at this moment.

Once upon a time, he also believed that he could solve the Mathematical Olympiad through hard work alone. But when the cruel facts were faced, Gu Xing couldn't accept it for a long time and complained about why he didn't get corresponding rewards despite his hard work.

The same goes for eSports.

A person like Imp, who is so amazing and talented, had to practice hard for 14-15 hours a day to win the S4 championship.

Gu Xing himself has to maintain a similar length of training every day. He has not asked Faker for advice, but if he thinks about it, he knows that Lee Sang Hyuk's average daily practice time will not be short.

Kuro is indeed very diligent and hard-working, and he is trying every means to delay the decline in his condition due to age.

But there are only sixteen or seventeen hours a day at best.

A top genius who is in his prime only practices one or two hours less than you every day, so why should he lose to you?

However, the game is not over yet, and it is impossible for Gu Xing to reveal the bloody and cruel facts to Kuro.

"Efforts will definitely come in handy, and maybe they will come in handy in the next round," he patted the opponent's slightly trembling shoulder, "Thinking about the sweat you put in during the hard training, you are really willing to give in before the results are settled. ?"

Kuro raised his eyes, his voice was extremely fragile, "But I really can't think of how to win. You will be beaten in the early stage of selecting the magic core, and the tool selector will be delayed until the later stage..."

He was extremely distressed and beat his head hard, only hating his limited abilities.

"Think about what I told you before the semi-finals," Gu Xing said earnestly to reassure you, "Believe in me and believe in yourself again."

"In the next round, you can continue to play the one that's easy for you, and leave the rest to me!" He vowed to make the promise.

"That's right," Yu Wenbo helped, "The game has not been lost yet, so how can there be any reason to surrender directly? You won't even give in with your fists!"

The slightly humorous words livened up the almost frozen atmosphere in the VG lounge.

Even though he lost two games in a row, Jack still had a playful smile on his face and a cheerful look on his face.

It can only be said that his ability to withstand pressure has always been good.

"Besides, if you lose, you lose. I've never lost a championship in my career. I still want to know what it's like!" Yu Wenbo crossed his legs.

"That's good, Jack," Song Jinghao also relaxed, "Isn't it more uncomfortable to lose to SKT back then than it is now?"

"Now that we all have Grand Slams, we are still so scared of becoming famous!"

Duan Deliang, who had been silent all this time, also looked slightly brighter, clenching his fists with a look of determination.

"No one in the G2 group has won the MSI championship. They are probably gathering in the lounge to celebrate their upcoming championship... What a beautiful idea!" He swore, "Want to win the championship? It's not that simple! "

"I have to bite off a piece of their flesh before I fall!"

"Come on, come on, let's cheer together before we go on stage," Gu Xing pulled Kuro up and called on everyone to form a circle and fold their palms together, "Three, two, one... Come on VG!"

The shouts in unison completely dispelled the negativity and loneliness that had previously filled the place.

At the same time, in front of the analysis desk in the European division, the blond and blue-eyed host Sjokz was stepping on high heels and delivering a pre-game speech to the countless audiences in front of the English stream with great affection.

"Let's start with success. Success is actually a kind of growth. Success is overcoming the inner demons. Success is being knocked down again and again and rising again. No one knows this better than Luka Perkovi (Perkz). The situation is better understood.”

"Perkz, the most experienced and famous mid laner in European history, has 5 league championship trophies on his resume, but has never won any international trophies. He even recorded 2 wins and 8 losses in the 2016 MSI group stage. He had a humiliating record and fell before the knockout round in the 2016 World Championship, but he did not give up because of this."

"As everyone knows, today's LPL has become an invincible beast. They have dominated two consecutive S tournaments and won all official championships in the past year and a half. As the most prosperous and powerful team, Vici Gaming It is even more unrivaled and invincible!”

"The LPL army led by them has defeated European teams in BO5 countless times, defeating them again and again, without exception."

"Before this mid-season tournament, Virtue is dominating the world and aiming for its second MSI championship trophy."

"But until now in this game, he has not shown the invincible attitude that he has faced all over the world before. Instead, he has been firmly suppressed by the G2 members led by Perkz!"

Sjokz's voice gradually became passionate and powerful, "Everything will end in the next game!"

"The devil can be ended, fate can be broken, Perkz can end his fate with his own hands and win the mid-season championship he dreams of!"

"In the next game, he and G2 will see their dreams finally come true!"

"Let's hand over the picture to the scene and start the BP of the final battle!"
