Chapter 364 I Long for a Worthy Rival
"Morgana?!"
"No wonder they didn't take care of Malzahar. Morgana killed Malzahar with this move!"
Miller finally understood when he saw Scout's choice.
Current version.
Morgana is actually not a very good hero.
T1 and T2 are definitely not achievable.
T3 may not be able to fit in.
It can only find a place in the bottom T4 or even in the inferior category.
The reason is simple.
Although Morgana's E [Dark Shield] has the word "shield" in its name, it cannot trigger the bonus of the Ardent Censer.
This directly eliminates the possibility of appearing in a supporting position.
Going the middle road…
Look at what the opponents are like.
Facing a series of mainstream mid laners including Syndra, Taliyah, Leblanc, Clockwork, Ryze, Cassiopeia, Corki, and Galio.
Morgana can only counter Leblanc.
Restrict Taliyah to a certain extent.
If you develop against other mid laners, you will definitely suffer a disadvantage.
——After the equipment is formed, the output is completely on a different level.
Face Malzahar.
The situation is different.
Morgana plays mid, has enough levels and money, and her W skill has a reduced CD when hitting heroes, large wild monsters, and cannon carts, so she can clear the lane much faster than Malzahar.
Although the magic immunity effect of the E skill cannot remove control, it can be cast in advance when placing a ward or entering a dangerous area.
The full level shield value is 350, with a bonus of 0.7, plus resistance reduction, making it difficult to be broken quickly.
I dare not finish talking about Kmalzahar.
At least the strategy of relying on vision advantage to suppress the opponent's initiative has been largely destroyed.
"But EDG is lacking in frontline due to the way they pick heroes."
Wawa held his chin up and thought: "If we don't use a tank in the top lane, the factory manager may not be able to hold the point alone. Let's see what to choose later."
"SSG still has Varus on the third floor, so EDG has the advantage in this regard."
There are only a few strong ADs and supports.
Tristana, the policewoman, and Xia are all gone.
Lulu was banned and can’t choose Kog’Maw.
If SSG doesn’t take Varus, there will be no heroes available in the bottom lane.
If you get Varus, you will also be at a disadvantage.
Because EDG directly banned Luo and Baobao, leaving almost no common supports for SSG.
SSG banned Shen and Kennen, targeting Xing Dao's hero pool.
"Jayce is outside!" Wawa noticed a top laner.
"Jayce shouldn't be picked, because CuVee is behind, and there are still heroes like Shen, Troll, and Cho'Gun out there." Miller analyzed: "EDG's lineup will be very weak if General picks another Jayce."
"Hmm... That's right." Wawa thought about it and felt that it made sense: "SSG picked Soraka in the bottom lane. In this World Finals, Soraka appeared four times with a win rate of 75%. She can indeed be used."
"Look at EDG's last two picks."
"Zac is still the jungler, and... Fiora is the top laner!"
"General's Sword Princess!"
In the center of the big screen, a female warrior wearing light armor and holding a slender rapier appeared.
Along with this, there is another line.
——"I long for a worthy opponent!"
"Here she comes, here comes the Sword Princess with unique skills."
"Brother Jie has to be serious."
"Kill through CuVee!"
"Is it easier to be countered if you choose first..."
"Counter is bullshit, the top position depends on the ID."
“…”
Except for a very small number of viewers who were a little worried, the vast majority of the comments were filled with anticipation.
After all, Xing Dao practiced Shen for half a season, forcing SSG to give up the ban position. Fiora, who has practiced for a longer time, is likely to have a better performance.
"Can Jayce be used?" SSG coach Edgar asked before the final pick.
“Just give me Gnar.” CuVee, who was in the top lane, responded.
From the perspective of positioning.
It will be very comfortable for Jayce to fight against Fiora.
but.
CuVee is a well-known big-game player who is capable of competing for the top three in every world championship.
In contrast, their performance in the LCK region has always been average.
Throughout the whole year, Jayce was only picked once in the spring season.
And he was beaten badly.
During the World Championship, although we practiced, we were not sure that we could achieve results.
I think Nar is better.
"Then it's Nar." Edgar nodded in agreement.
Hero selection.
The lineup has been confirmed.
Blue side: EDG
Red Team: SSG
Top lane: Fiora vs Gnar
Jungle: Zac vs. Gragas
Mid: Morgana vs Malzahar
AD: Policewoman vs Varus
Support: Karma vs Soraka
It can be seen that there are very obvious differences in the emphasis of the two sides.
EDG has two advantages.
One is the early-stage quick push centered around the two line bosses, Caitlyn and Karma, and the other is the late-stage split push relying on the hero characteristics of Fiora and Xing Dao's personal abilities.
This is the most common way for the LPL region to deal with the LCK.
Not considering operations.
Just go for it and do it.
SSG is a standard Korean style. Even though Malzahar's role is limited by Morgana, they continue to build the system around team battles.
Gragas takes the first move.
Varus takes the imprisonment.
In between, there were the silences of the two heroes, Malzahar and Soraka .
Gnar can not only connect the control chain, but also wait for opportunities on the side to limit EDG's counterattack.
If the timing and position are right, it is possible to perform the Tathagata Palm.
…
"Should I help the upper or the lower in this game?"
"With a lineup like this, we can only focus on one lane."
the factory manager asked during the reading phase.
Policewoman Karma doesn't necessarily have to push the line.
But if you want it to be effective, you have to press the line.
otherwise.
There is no point in taking it out.
"Help me, what can I do for you on the road?"
Xing Dao looked puzzled: "This lineup helps the top lane. Brother Changzi, don't you have any thoughts about me that go beyond friendship, have nothing to do with love, and are just passionate, commonly known as lust?"
"Get out!" the factory manager complained angrily.
The points +7777 prompt then floated up.
"Hahahahahaha, I'm dying of laughter." Meiko laughed so hard that she started to laugh.
"Brother from the factory, come down here, I can do it!" Ah Shui was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
After some jokes.
The originally somewhat depressing atmosphere immediately became relaxed.
The factory manager thought about it and gave a reminder: "Then you must be careful on the road, otherwise it will be troublesome if the wire explodes."
"Are you kidding? I can destroy the line?" Xing Dao was very confident: "If I die once during the laning phase, I will chop off the enemy live!"
The referee lady behind me listened to the whole process.
The look in his eyes is a little weird.
After thinking it over again, I still didn't give a warning at such a critical moment.
I just secretly made a note of it and planned to deduct the money after the game.
“It’s started, it’s started!”
Scout, as the last serious person, reminded his teammates when entering Summoner's Rift.
All EDG members had serious expressions.
Purchase initial equipment.
Wait 15 seconds for the grating to disappear.
Everyone rushed out of the fountain and headed for the designated location.
On the other side, members of the SSG team also went out first.
CuVee, who was in the top lane, learned from his mistakes and took the initiative to go to the top bush to avoid being caught by Xing Dao and forced to lose blood in the early stages of the game.
The other heroes stood on both sides of the river.
They used long-range skills on each other.
Disperse before the wild monsters refresh and start the formal confrontation.
