Chapter 384: Faker's Desperate Struggle
The prince was not a particularly outstanding hero.
But in this version, Jarvan IV is one of the few options besides Shen who can force a breakthrough and bring Galio into the field.
It can only be counted as 70 points.
Combined with the linkage effect, it is enough to increase to 90 points.
It's worth paying a ban for.
Seeing this, SKT banned a Nightmare.
The same is true for junglers.
As for why the two teams facing the FMVP top laner in the World Finals ignored the top lane hero... it's very simple.
——It’s impossible to move on.
In addition to their strong personal abilities, the two players Xing Dao and Marin also have outstanding personal abilities.
What cannot be ignored is the extremely deep hero pool.
Players who don’t watch the game much may think that Xing Dao is just Fiora in his left hand and Shen in his right hand; and they may think that Marin is just Rumble and Nard in addition to being a tank.
In fact.
The two of them are capable of being the main heroes on the field, and both have reached double digits.
Banning ten top laners may not necessarily affect their counter attacks.
"Banning Nightmare can largely prevent being outnumbered, allowing Shen to have a better support environment... There are also combinations or special heroes such as Xayah and Rakan, Tristana and Gem, Policewoman Karma, and Ziggs."
“I don’t know how EDG and SKT will deal with this.”
Wawa said this and read out the processing on the screen: "EDG banned the policewoman!"
Female police officers were banned.
SKT faced a problem.
That's the trade-off between Xayah, Rakan, Tristana, and Galio.
Are Xia Luo strong?
Of course it is strong.
If Skateboard Shoes is T0, Xayah and Rakan are T0.5, and will never drop to the T1 level.
but.
Because he is too strong, he cannot appear on the stage.
Since they can’t appear on stage, professional players won’t put too much energy into practicing.
Their proficiency is generally insufficient, and the heroes' performance is not strong enough to be unsolvable. SSG even demonstrated how to deal with Tristana and Gem in the semi-finals.
The cannon can avoid battle, has displacement, and has a fast clearing speed to avoid having the tower consumed.
Add a support that has both tankiness and control and is not so easy to be killed.
Can withstand Xia Luo's pressure.
Although we still suffered a loss, we were not completely helpless.
That is to say.
As long as SKT doesn't care about these heroes, EDG can take Galio first, and then choose between Cannon, Xayah and Rakan.
SKT may not be able to achieve good results using Xayah and Rakan.
Send out Tristana + Rakan.
EDG can also choose Varus.
There is also the possibility of continuing to use bombers for ultra-long-range bombing.
However, there is no Shen in Marin's hero pool, so he cannot use the method of rushing to ban to dismantle EDG's charging combination, and it is difficult to resist the unsolvable charging system.
Considered for more than ten seconds.
SKT coach KkOma still chose to hold down Galio and eliminate the threat at the source.
Entering the selection stage, the one EDG grabbed on the first floor was... Luo!
This move took SKT by surprise.
For a strong team with a small gap in strength and can easily drag the team fight into the middle and late stages, the order of importance is Xayah and Rakan, single Rakan, and single Xayah.
but.
EDG is best at pushing the tempo.
Often the competition comes to an end just when the three major components are completed.
Luo's presence is obviously not as strong as Xayah's, who has a big move to protect herself + [Hook] to imprison, and is very effective whether she is taking the dragon or destroying the tower.
"Don't let Xia Luo go. Let's take it ourselves."
SKT coach KkOma thought about it and made a decision.
Although Bang has been using meditation training methods for some time, his proficiency has declined slightly.
But in the summer season, Bang's Xayah achieved a 100% win rate in 7 games.
The data is extremely gorgeous.
There is no need to take the risk of releasing Xia Luo.
I can also grab the Janna support with the highest win rate, which is a pleasant surprise.
"Xayah and Janna are actually very suitable for Bang's style of early development, and then playing a large amount of damage in teamfights after the equipment is complete. We all know that Bang is not good at laning, but performing in teamfights."
"EDG got Tristana and Gragas... Peanut's hero is gone!"
Miller chuckled.
"Indeed." Ze Yuan nodded: "But I think Peanut will not only have these three. He can definitely bring out other heroes, such as Excavator, Spider, and the blind monk who cannot be ignored."
"It's better to use the excavator. It's better at defending the wild area."
The second round of Ban/Pick begins.
Because the bottom lane and jungle heroes are determined.
The focus of both sides naturally came to the middle lane.
EDG targeted Taliyah and Clockwork, heroes that were very useful in support and teamfighting, while SKT targeted Morgana and Lissandra, two mixed heroes.
You can see it.
Faker hates Scout's style of dragging him along every time they meet.
Fourth floor.
The hero that appeared was... Fizz!
“Wow!”
Wawa exclaimed: "Faker showed Fizz. It's obvious that he wants to gain an advantage in the middle lane in this game."
Speaking of the ID Faker and the hero Fizz.
The first thing that comes to mind is obviously what Ximen Ye said about the tower dive and solo kill.
But Faker, who made a name for himself as an assassin when he first debuted, is also an excellent user of Fizz. In the three games of the summer season, he defeated his opponents with Fizz in all three games without exception.
"Oh, what can I do with him..."
Scout is a little confused.
There is no need to say much about Fizz's offensive type.
If you take it out, it’s a fight to the death.
Without Morgana and Galio, Ekko is not a good choice, Kassadin is not suitable for the environment, and other heroes do not seem to be particularly safe.
"Sindra, please."
BP coach Maokai suggested: "If it doesn't work, make Mercury's Boots first. If there are no problems, everything will be fine."
"Okay!" Scout agreed.
Fifth floor.
It's your turn to choose the top position.
Fiora, Shen, and Shen are all outside. Marin can use Fiora or Shen to deal with Shen, and use Shen to deal with Fiora.
That is to say.
Neither Fiora nor Shen may be able to perform very well.
Jayce or Lucian can gain an advantage.
But as long as Faker roams around, the situation becomes very dangerous, and it doesn't match EDG's own lineup very well.
It looks like no top lane hero has been banned.
Actually.
SKT has already imposed considerable restrictions on Xing Dao through its lineup.
The ability in Ban/Pick is evident.
In this case...
Just charge a character card!
"Bring me Kled!"
Xing Dao took the initiative to propose.
After hearing this, Meiko locked onto the hero without hesitation.
"Kled!"
Ze Yuan read out the name and analyzed: "If General uses Kled, the impact of EDG's lineup will become very strong. Kled and Gragas have two charges, plus Luo's crowd control. If SKT's counter-attack skills are a little slower, they may not be able to resist."
"That's right." Miller added: "As long as Xia and Janna can't use their ultimates in time, there will definitely be problems. After all, SKT's lineup is indeed a bit thin."
"Let's see what Marin chooses."
"oh--"
"It's Sword Princess!"
Two top lane heroes appeared one after another.
At the scene, bursts of cheers rang out.
Xing Dao's Kled was once an unstoppable tower dive, and Marin's Fiora put on an unparalleled performance in the S5 finals.
The audience's expectations were directly raised to the maximum value...
…
