Chapter 363 Return to BO3 Competition
“Congratulations to EDG!”
Wawa's voice sounded: "SSG's performance was quite outstanding. They released Xayah and Rakan during the Ban/Pick phase, responded successfully with Tristana and Gem, and helped CuVee stabilize the situation by constantly targeting the top lane."
"The situation was dragged down for a time in the medium term."
"But Zzaizhang helped EDG regain the initiative by stealing the Baron."
Didn't understand the vision issue.
The doll simply doesn't mention it.
Just treat it as a bug in the OB perspective.
"That's right."
Miller looked at the data: "General and JackeyLove both played more than 25,000 outputs, and Scout played 21,000."
"In the SSG team, Tristana's damage was 2.2W, and Clockwork never had a chance to pull out a good ultimate, and only dealt 1.5W."
"MVP goes to the still-talented factory manager!"
"This time, the factory manager really gave us a very big surprise."
The game was won.
The commentator naturally has to praise it.
We cannot say that this is wrong and that is not okay at inappropriate times.
Only some sharp-eyed viewers noticed from the camera that the EDG players did not look happy when they won.
Instead, it is serious.
This is also true.
A game won is a game won.
It's not to the extent that we can say that we are defeated even though we won.
But when I got Xayah and Rakan, the effect was not good enough.
Even team battles are difficult to fight in the mid-game.
They used the tactic of covering the real eyes with fake eyes to trick the SSG team into rushing the big dragon, and then they won with the punishment, and then they got into the desired rhythm.
For EDG, it was obviously not that comfortable.
"If you have Xayah and Rakan, you can still take them. Ban Tristana and you can start the tempo."
Abramovich studied it for a long time in the background: "The key is the medium-term vision. The impact is much greater than we expected before."
Xayah and Rakan are usually not available.
So, A Shui and Meiko just practiced casually.
If you get banned, you have achieved your strategic goal.
It is generally used.
iBoy came on the court relatively late and had no experience with Xayah and Rakan's cooperation.
but.
Don't be timid.
Even if the proficiency is not that high, if SSG dares to release it, EDG must choose it.
Since Xayah and Rakan cannot be used, most of the Ban/Picks are locked out, which is a great disadvantage.
Anyway, Xia Luo’s own strong attributes are there.
As long as you don't encounter an AD with a very fast clearing speed like Tristana, even if you can't get a kill, you can still drive the pace of the fast push and cooperate with the jungler to control the dragon resources.
It is impossible to have two wind dragons in every game.
There is nothing much to say about the road.
Master An 's determination to catch him can only be used at noon.
Next time, the factory director will definitely not let Xing Dao be isolated and helpless.
The troublesome point lies in the series of negative effects brought about by the suppression of vision. After all, SSG must choose a lineup that is more inclined towards team battles to maximize the advantages in this aspect.
The discussion lasted a long time.
The EDG team still hasn't come up with a better solution.
Just take it one step at a time.
However.
Second game.
There was a very big accident.
Seeing that Tristana was banned, SSG did not dare to release Xayah and Rakan. Instead, they held down Xayah and took out Varus and Karma to seize the route control.
Gnar is still the top laner.
For the mid and jungle positions, we chose the Malzahar and Gragas combination.
EDG has Kennen as top laner, Zac as jungler, Syndra as mid laner, and Caitlyn Braum as bottom laner.
In terms of lineup, EDG is not at a disadvantage.
Thanks to Braum's almost unstoppable combat power in the first-level group, the factory manager got a 3-BUFF start.
But in the middle period.
SSG relied on vision to take the lead and made frequent shots.
Each of Malzahar’s ultimates can catch key heroes and create a small rhythm.
Accumulating little by little, the transition from quantitative change to qualitative change, we successfully recovered one point and changed the game from BO5 to BO3.
Such a result was hard to believe from the commentators to the audience.
Indeed.
SSG showed unexpected strength.
But EDG is the defending champion who has defeated LCK's No. 1 seed LZ 3-0, and has even defeated SKT twice in world-class competitions.
Facing an SSG.
The first game was won with difficulty.
Did we just lose the second game?
"SSG handled it well."
SKT head coach KkOma watched the game attentively and felt that he had benefited a lot.
Ban/Pick level.
KkOma and SSG coach Edgar are in two different directions.
KkOma tends to be conservative and a bit stubborn. Even when he knows a certain lineup has flaws, he is unwilling to make changes. Instead, he wants to keep everything under control within a known range.
Edgar is more daring and is willing to try lineups with high ceilings, low floors, and great returns and risks.
but.
Different directions.
It does not affect the mutual understanding of the lineup.
Choose ranged, ban charge, and restrict EDG's top laner.
Use the AD support that is most suitable for pushing the line , so that EDG's bottom lane cannot establish the rhythm of pushing the tower.
This two-pronged approach is enough to limit most of EDG's strength.
As for Xia Luo...
It can be handled according to the specific situation.
It is not an absolute taboo.
With this understanding, it is not only easier to deal with the EDG team, but also much more comfortable facing RNG.
…
"Dear summoners, welcome back to the scene."
"After two games, EDG and SSG tied 1-1, which was somewhat different from our pre-match prediction."
Wawa and Miller reappeared in front of the camera.
"That's right."
Miller went on to say: "In the last game, Crown's Grasshopper and An Zhangmen's Barrel performed very well. With their ultimate skills in hand, it was easy for them to seize opportunities."
"I think EDG should think about how to deal with it."
"Malzahar alone is not very effective, and Gragas is also average, but with SSG's vision advantage and Varus's R skill [Corruption Chains], it is a bit hard to defend against."
"EDG was attacked first and was always unable to fight back."
Suppression type control cannot be lifted by Purification or Crucible.
If you want to release the control, you must use the Mercury's Treads.
For an offensive team like EDG, the number of wards purchased ranks among the last few among all teams.
If you spend 1,300 to buy mercury at each position, the rhythm will be ruined.
"It's okay to give up a ban, since EDG is on the blue side in this game anyway."
Wawa saw the big screen switch to the Ban/Pick interface and got to the point: "EDG still banned An's Pig Girl on the first floor."
"SSG gave the first ban to Skate. I wonder if they will give Xayah and Rakan again."
Next.
EDG holds down Janna and Tristana.
SSG blocked Lulu on the second floor accordingly, and seeing that there was no Tristana on the third floor, they could only put Xayah in the ban seat.
"Malzahar doesn't care?"
Miller was a little confused: "EDG first grabbed Karma to secure the bottom lane, but this way, SSG can take Gragas and Malzahar together."
As the party that just won.
SSG can maintain its original lineup and wait for EDG to respond.
Because Malzahar and Gragas do not require particularly sophisticated operations, nor do they need to establish advantages. As long as they can maintain their stability, the mechanism can play a sufficient role.
really.
For SSG’s first two picks, they locked on the mid and jungle heroes that had played a very good role in the previous game without hesitation.
Continue to put pressure on EDG.
"You're still playing this game, aren't you?"
"It's enjoyable, isn't it?"
Scout asked a few questions in a very Chinese way, and behind the policewoman, he took out a... fallen angel, Morgana!
