Chapter 382 The finals begin!
"Not easy to fight?" Ah Shui blinked, very surprised by this statement.
"It's really hard to fight." Xing Dao said, "Don't treat the village chief as a cadre, okay? Brother Ma is very fierce."
"Is he still so powerful now?" Ah Shui didn't quite believe it.
"It's still very powerful now!" Xing Dao answered without hesitation.
MaRin is not an all-around top laner.
Not even at its peak.
In the S5 finals, Marin was able to establish a large enough economic advantage based on three reasons.
First, the team tilts during the line change phase.
Without this tilt, you will have to face two heroes, AD and support, at the beginning, and even a god will not be able to develop.
Take the scene where Marin beat up the ancient handsome guy AmazingJ.
Marin followed the jungler and ate and took things. He not only drank the soup, but also ate at least half a bowl of meat.
On the other hand, AmazingJ only has a pot in front of him... and he has to work hard to clean it and then put it on his head.
Second, it is the binding of the top and jungle of Benji back then.
That year, the water cooler god Bengi guarded Marin with the same attitude as he did when he protected Faker, and carried out several GANKs that turned the situation around.
In a situation where heroes have similar performance and a single kill difference can snowball, the role of the top lane position is quite significant.
The third one... is the well-known jungle farming.
Marin not only clears the opponent's jungle, but also his own jungle. In short, he must take the resources when he sees them.
Only when you are full will you have the strength to carry.
certainly.
List these.
This is not to disparage Marin.
Think about it.
A top laner who is not that strong in laning phase and can just make it into the first tier is treated like a real father by the SKT team and is taken care of with all their heart. What does this mean?
——This means that there is greater value outside of laning!
Ask God for another twenty seconds to change your destiny.
1v5 team battle in the river, invincible.
At that time, Marin, cooperating with SKT's overall operation, stood out as invincible and unstoppable.
Even though times have changed.
Still can't take Marin lightly.
You know.
SKT has a very thorough understanding of the version and is not obsessed with making Bang the primary core.
To put it another way, it means having the ability to continue to support Marin.
If EDG faced SKT in the normal timeline, with Huni as the top laner.
Xing Dao didn't dare to say that he was absolutely sure, but he dared to say that it was 90% certain.
Facing Marin...
If SKT uses a similar style of play as SSG, using the top and jungle binding method to get through the early stage, team battles will not be that easy to handle.
You know.
Marin was not a loser in the regular season, he exploded in the World Championship, with Gnar in the left hand, Kennen in the right hand, and Cho'Giant in the middle, and Shen on the outside. He was CuVee with an upper limit but no lower limit.
This guy is pretty good at handling headwinds.
You can also choose Sword Princess.
Even using comparison...
wrong.
Not a comparison.
It is very good.
"Indeed, Marin is someone to consider."
Abu nodded in agreement: "Can we defeat him directly in the laning phase? We can also gank him infinitely."
"It depends on the specific situation..." Xing Dao couldn't guarantee it.
Defense is inherently easier than offense.
Faker's performance this year was definitely not ordinary.
It is unknown how Xiao Hei, who inherited Bengi's will and has been enlightened at the water dispenser for a long time, will perform.
Think about it.
Xing Dao added: "In fact, you can grow up with him. I like growing up the most."
“???!”
"Human language?"
"You grow by killing people, right?"
The other EDG players complained.
"Why kill anyone? I really like growth."
Xing Dao said seriously: "Marin's three steps are team support, jungle ganking, and jungle development. The first two are just like that, and I can also do the third one... Go his way and leave him with no way to go!"
"That makes sense..." Abu rubbed his chin and thought .
"Wait, wait." The factory manager hurriedly stopped him: "You guys are going to eat my wild monsters again, right?"
"Brother Chang, your words are awkward, aren't they? Given our relationship, why should we separate you and me?" Xing Dao started to deceive people: "I'll take all the resources, win the competition, and raise my reputation. I'll find you a brother or sister next year."
"Oh..." The factory manager's brain crashed for two seconds before he realized, "What the hell does your looking for my brother's wife have to do with me?"
“Hahahahahahaha—”
"Ha ha ha ha--"
“It’s so funny.”
The training
"Don't mention it, it's actually pretty good to go and kill SKT's jungle."
Abu perfected this idea: "But be careful not to let Faker move. If there are fewer people, it will be easy to suffer a loss in the fight."
"Understood!" Scout was very sensible: "Stop Faker and we'll be successful!"
"If the pressure in the bottom lane isn't too great, I can also buy five-speed boots and move up." Meiko, who is still at his peak, thought of another way.
"Then let's try it first." Abu concluded.
This simple regular meeting is just a collision of ideas.
A series of tests are needed to determine whether it can be implemented in actual combat.
For many things, there are basically no flaws in the concept, but when they are put into practice, we will discover the unreasonable aspects and then find areas for improvement and enhancement.
outside world.
News about the World Finals has reached an overwhelming level, and on the hot lists of various media you can see content about the defending champion EDG versus the two-time champion SKT.
You know, this year is different from previous years.
The final was held at the Bird's Nest Stadium in the imperial capital, which has considerable historical significance.
In order to achieve this goal, the e-sports community has worked hard for nearly twenty years.
From the earliest chaos and disorder, even to the dark side.
Gradually developed into a formal sport.
In recent years, it has gained sufficient popularity and huge commercial value to become a legitimate industry that can be accepted by the public.
It is even possible to enter an event at the level of the Asian Games.
With the strength shown by EDG, there is a high probability that they will be able to successfully defend the title, so Tencent will of course spare no effort to promote it.
With such high heat.
The prices of tickets for the finals have all been raised from the original five tiers of 280-380-480-880-1280 to over five figures.
The best seats cost more than 30,000 yuan, but they are still hard to get.

There are still a few hours until kick-off.
The entrance of the Bird's Nest Stadium was packed with spectators.

The queue formed into an endless long dragon.
The Bird's Nest, which has a maximum capacity of 91,000 people, was packed with spectators as they waited for their turn to arrive.
All major platforms started broadcasting early.
A series of promotional clips, most importantly the sponsor’s advertisements, were played.
