Chapter 668: The head coach comes on and advances to the finals!
"MVP goes to Xiye."
Zhihuan looked at the post-match data and selections: "Indeed, Xiye played a big role in this game. He kept attacking UZI from the side. It is reasonable to give him the MVP."
"But I want to add one thing - EDG can only come up with this lineup because of General."
"Wouldn't it be better to choose Tam as a support?" Rita suggested.
"If you don't pick Tam in the first round, you won't get it in the second round." Changmao remembered the Ban/Pick process: "When playing against EDG, RNG must first consider grabbing General's hero, then ensure that UZI can get a T1-level AD, and also give Letme a stable Ornn... If you pick Tam in the first round, you have to give up one of the first three."
"Besides, if RNG chooses Tam first, EDG can also change its lineup."
"It would be better to continue with Soraka. Soraka has the silence field of E and the health recovery of WR, which is better at countering Leblanc."
"Let's take a look at how the third game was handled." Zhihuan concluded: "If RNG continues to use the four-protect-one lineup and doesn't solve the problem of UZI being ambushed, I'm afraid they will really be shut out..."
When playing against other teams, including strong Korean teams, RNG's four-protect-one system can play a sufficient role.
Because the essence of the four-protect-one system is to simplify things and pull the opponent into a game with UZI. As long as UZI cannot be dealt with, it will be difficult to defeat the RNG team.
The flaw is that when UZI is restricted, the remaining four players of RNG cannot sustain a team battle at all.
Recognizing this, the RNG team learned from their mistakes.
In the third game, he chose to change his formation.
Let Karsa, who had been losing battles in a row, go to the water dispenser to rest first, and bring up Mala Xiangguo, hoping to confuse Jiejie with the unreasonable attack of Mala Xiangguo, the fasting jungler.
Unexpectedly.
EDG put in the factory manager.
When they heard the commentator read out the news of EDG's substitution on the stage, the faces of RNG's five starting players and two coaches turned green!
"I am so amused. RNG is too funny."
Inside the IG club's training room, Rookie, who earned the title of "Chicken God" this season, laughed so hard that he fell backwards.
Both the factory manager and Mala Xiangguo have the title of top wild king.
But judging from the record of their encounters, the factory manager had a one-sided victory.
From the S5 season to the present, adding up the points obtained in the regular season and playoffs, the score between Factory Manager and Mala Xiangguo is 20-5, a difference of four times!
not to mention.
Mala Xiangguo has not performed well recently.
Although the factory manager is a bit old, looking at his performance in the Asian Games, everyone has to admit that the current factory manager is still in the first echelon.
RNG wanted to use a hammer to hit Jiejie's nail.
As a result, it hit the steel plate!
"I think RNG is holding back. They probably have other heroes and lineups." The mature and steady Duke expressed his opinion.
"So what if you have reservations? Just do it!" Ning said this and turned to ask, "Isn't that right, Brother Ma?"
"I don't know." Sima Laozei had a blank expression on his face.
"It's okay, don't be afraid." Rookie played his own joke: "RNG has a dog, we have a horse and a chicken, we have one more animal than them."
"If I lose, I'll just be given a massage." Baolan joked.
"Get lost." Sima the old thief continued to have no expression on his face.
“Hahahahahahaha——” Rookie slapped his thighs with laughter.
While talking.
The third Ban/Pick between EDG and RNG begins.
EDG had absolute initiative on the blue side and once again brought out a lineup of Aatrox + Yasuo. The other three were jungle Gragas, AD Ashe, and support Thresh, which was similar to the first game.
RNG was on the red side, using Sion on the top lane, Ryze in the middle, Nightmare on the jungle, and Xayah + Alcatraz on the bottom lane. It was obvious that they wanted to wait until level 6 before fighting together.
The start was calm.
Mala Xiangguo can go on a hunger strike using other heroes, but Nightmare obviously cannot. He must quietly reach level 6 before he can do anything.
The "second level gank" style of play by the factory manager has caused RNG to suffer many losses. This time, UZI rarely started to control the line and make last hits. He would rather be hit by A Shui's large wave of soldiers than take the risk of pressuring others.
It was 4 minutes and 37 seconds.
After clearing a wave of wild monsters, the factory manager came to the middle lane to attack Xiaohu.
Walk out from the side and rear.
Throw Q [Rolling Barrel] to slow down and help Xiye perform the QEW triple combo.
Xiaohu had just raised his hand to imprison the Barrel when he was slowed down by the Aatrox's W [Fire Chains]. He could only flash sideways and then use QEQ three times in a row on the Aatrox to trigger Phase Dash and create space.
Very fast.
The action is very cool.
But he lost his only self-protection skill.
The factory manager circled the middle lane, caught the enemy again from a different angle, and helped Xiye get the first blood at five and a half minutes.
RNG's mid and jungle players immediately fell into an absolute disadvantage.
In the bottom lane, UZI had solid basic skills and did not suffer any loss when using Xayah to last hit Ashe. However, Xayah and Lao Niu's radiation to the jungle was far from comparable to Ashe and Thresh who controlled the lane.
6 minutes and 47 seconds.
RNG's second blue BUFF was taken away by EDG.
Xiaohu was once again trapped in a situation where he couldn't leave the tower.
Mala Xiangguo reached level six, holding the ultimate skill, but had nowhere to fly. It was not until nine minutes that he went to the bottom lane to turn off the lights and launch a surprise attack.
What a pity.
Meiko's protection ability is extremely good.
The backhand E [Pendulum of Doom] + R [Netherworld Prison] perfectly blocked RNG's pursuit and helped A Shui escape.
RNG's most crucial wave of attack only got the support's head.
Next.
Entered a long refractory period.
Seeing this, EDG once again made a strategy of exchanging mid and top.
This not only allows Xing Dao to eat the minion line in the middle lane and develop in the jungle, but also allows for the national team-level combo of Gragas ER and Yasuo!
Xiaohu's equipment is shoes + Tears of the Goddess + two pornographic books + a blue crystal, and his upper limit of health is less than 1,200.
The factory manager still made the 'Echo' jungle knife which adds magic power and comes with extra damage, and the output is maximized.
WE used a combination of flash, RQA and Xing Dao's burst, leaving Xiaohu no chance to move!
UZI saw this scene and sighed silently.
Not long ago.
UZI has worked with EDG's top, jungle, mid and support players in the Asian Games and knows the atmosphere within the EDG team clearly.
Even if the situation is passive, EDG's jungler, support, and top laner will continue to communicate, point out every hidden danger and aspect that needs prevention, and list how to exchange resources and how to counterattack, so that everyone has a clear understanding.
On the other hand, RNG.
Once you are in a disadvantageous position, there will be no feedback.
The voice channel is not much different from the morgue.
Players with a bad mentality might even have their hands shaking.
11 minutes and 39 seconds.
Xiaohu was hit by a combination of attacks from Gragas and Yasuo again. When he was low on health and used flash, he was blown up by the whirlwind created by Yasuo's double wind operation when he landed, and gave away a kill again without even being able to change his summoner skills.
EDG gathered the strength of top, mid and jungle to get the Rift Herald.
Knock down RNG's middle lane outer tower.
This in turn threatens the bottom lane and limits UZI's development.
RNG's only option was to let UZI and Xiao Ming go up to destroy the tower in exchange for economy, but in this way, the nightmare played by Mala Xiangguo became a decoration.
EDG took the first wind dragon.
The second earth dragon was caught in the early 18 minutes.
Enter a team fight.
UZI, who has the best economy in the RNG team, cannot play a sufficient role in front of Yasuo's wind wall.
Ryze's strategy of sending Lao Niu around and starting a team fight was successful once, but Mala Xiangguo's Nightmare alone was not able to kill A Shui's Ruined Ashe, and was instead taken away by the focused fire.
EDG won a team fight with a zero-for-two exchange and took the Nash Baron.
First break the high ground on the upper road.
Relying on Conqueror + Green Fork, Infinity Edge and Bloodthirster, Yasuo split-pushed and broke the bottom lane high ground, narrowing the economic gap to 8.3K.
28 minutes and 57 seconds.
EDG started a fight in the river by pretending to fight the dragon and then joining a team fight. They used the lives of Zz1tai and Meiko to exchange for the lives of UZI, Xiao Ming, Letme, and Mala Xiangguo.
With a super line of soldiers, the game will end in one wave!
