Chapter 97 Faker: He is too extreme
Wawa took over: "Yes, judging from the current situation, I think EDG has a better chance of winning. After all, they defeated SKT in the opening game and are in very good condition."
"However, as we saw in the opening game, anything is possible in e-sports, so we can't be too optimistic."
On the competition stage, the host came on the stage. After a simple opening speech, he welcomed:
"Now, let us welcome the players from both sides!"
Su Mo led the EDG people onto the stage and was welcomed by the fans:
"EDG! EDG! EDG!"
Two teams of people stand in the middle of the stage, facing each other.
Su Mo deliberately moved to the middle to face Perkz and shook hands.
"Is it really you playing in the middle?" It felt amazing to see Su Mo Perkz.
Su Mo responded: "Of course it's me."
After shaking hands, Su Mo turned around and walked towards his seat.
At the commentary table, Guan Zeyuan noticed something was wrong:
"Hey! Did you see, it seemed that Brother Mozi was shaking hands with Perkz just now, what is going on? Brother Mozi is the top laner, and Perkz is the mid laner."
Miller speculated: "Is it because... both of them are rising stars? Some viewers may not be familiar with Perkz. Perkz is a strong contender for the new generation of kings in the LEC."
"His voice in the LEC is very high. From this point of view, he is a bit like Brother Mo Zi. They are both very young players with unlimited potential. It makes sense to let them shake hands."
So everyone didn't think much about it.
On EDG's side, before BP, Abramovich specifically asked:
"Xiao Mo, do you really want to play in the middle?"
If Su Mo hadn't performed so well yesterday, Abu would not have asked, but would have directly refused.
After all, this is the S game, every game is very crucial, and G2 is not a weak team that can be manipulated casually.
"Yes." Su Mo affirmed.
He is considering whether to continue randomization. He has not chosen a hero yet, and there is still a chance.
Abu was in trouble: "What about BP? You are too sudden."
Su Mo responded: "BAN top laner, make Scout easier to fight, what do you think, Scout?"
Scout: "I have no objection."
In the BAN hero stage, G2 chose to focus on the jungle position, and BAN dropped Ivern, Olaf and Nunu.
EDG BAN out Galio, Rambo, and Titan.
Seeing this situation, Guan Zeyuan began to analyze:
“I can understand why G2 targets the director. After all, SKT played like this yesterday. This version is indeed not friendly to the director, and there are not many heroes that can be used.”
“But, why did EDG ban three top laners? These three heroes are currently The appearance rate is indeed very high so far, but is Brother Mozi afraid? "
Wawa then asked: "Is it because of SKT that BAN Galio? They have already demonstrated the routine of breaking the nightmare once, what about the remaining two?"
Entering the hero selection stage, this time EDG is on the red side and G2 is on the blue side.
The G2 on the blue side locks the wine barrel on the first floor.
“Fuck!” the factory director complained. He originally wanted to choose a wine barrel, but the three junglers on the other side of the ban had to grab a wine barrel, giving him no way to survive.
Su Mo joked: "Factory, just take the blind monk, I believe you!"
The director of the factory stopped talking when he heard the word blind monk. He really can't control this hero now.
As a result, Abu also walked up and asked: "Mingkai, is the blind monk okay? The most popular jungler in the current version, you have practiced a lot recently, Xiao Mo's suggestion is very good."
[Get +10 torture points from the factory director]
“Male gun, give me the male gun.” In the end, the factory director did not choose the blind monk.
So EDG locked the male gun on the first floor and got Varus on the second floor.
BP continues, G2 locks Ice on the second floor and Blind Sin on the third floor.
· Guan Zeyuan commented: "G2 is very confident in the blind monk jungle. Coupled with Han Bing's first mover and the E skill to explore vision, G2 should be preparing to focus on the early rhythm in this game."
· Milzan Colleague: "That's right, now it depends on what Brother Mo Zi chooses. From yesterday's game we can see that if the line is strong enough, it can feed back into the jungle."
EDG got Lulu on the third floor and entered the second round of BP.
EDG then BAN out Syndra and Clockwork.
G2 BAN dropped Rockbird and Ryze.
EDG locked the little murloc on the fourth floor!
Miller analyzed: "This little murloc has something to say. In the current version, the murloc can play on the top or in the middle, but more often it goes on the road to produce half-tank. Although I haven't seen Brother Mozi play before, I believe he must have mastered it."
Wawa agreed: "Yes, he can train super unpopular top laners like Joker and Nightmare. It should be very simple to train a version of the popular murloc. This is also the first time I have seen Brother Mo playing a popular top laner hero."
G2 locked Zyra on the fourth floor, and got Enchantress on the fifth floor!
Once this enchantress was chosen, many LEC fans at the scene became restless.
Guan Zeyuan introduced: "The Enchantress is one of the unique skills of Perkz players. It should be said that there are very few world-class mid laners who can't play the Enchantress, and they are usually masters of the Enchantress."
Furthermore, from the perspective of hero attributes, I think the Enchantress has a lot of advantages over the murlocs. This game is a test for Scout players."
Miller agreed: "Usually. It is said that the fishman will not be picked first, but in this version, the fishman can swing from the middle to the top. If the middle lane is not good, he can switch to the top lane, so it is acceptable to choose first. "
"Now it depends on what you choose on the fifth floor to decide whether the fishman is the mid laner or the top laner..."
While the commentator was doing an analysis, suddenly, EDG showed a spider on the fifth floor, and then locked it.
“Huh?” The three commentators were stunned for a moment. At first, they thought Su Mo was being naughty and just showed off the spider.
· During BP, players will subconsciously choose a hero and put it away first. In fact, they have no intention of choosing it and are still discussing it.
But this time it was locked directly, causing the commentator to think he had made a mistake.
At this time, Abu was also stunned on EDG's side:
"Xiao Mo, you spider...don't we have a male gun to fight in the jungle?"
The director also glanced at Su Mo said, "Mo, your hands are shaking, aren't you? You were so panicked in G2. This is not like your style."
Abu patted Su Mo on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, I'll go talk to the referee and just restart."
Seeing that Abu was about to leave, Su Mo hurriedly said: "Brother Bu, don't go, I made the right choice!"
Hearing this, Abu stopped: "Ah? You made the right choice? Did you hit the spider?"
Abu also knew that Su Mo liked to play unpopular heroes, but spider hit, this is completely evil!
How to fight a spider against a witch?
He doesn't understand.
But Su Mo was still very calm: "Believe me, if I can win, I will use this hero."
Seeing that the BP time was about to end, Abu sighed helplessly: "Okay, ok, you can play if you want, but if you lose this game, I will blame you!"
"No problem." Su Mo nodded, not panicking at all.
“I’m leaving.” Abramovich rolled his eyes, walked to the middle of the stage, shook hands with the G2 coach, and then left the stage.
At this time, everyone in EDG also looked at each other.
The factory director looked up to the sky and sighed: "Mo, we are in the World Championships. Stay calm and don't make any mistakes!"
Su Mo reassured: "It's okay, we can win. You first match the summoner skills and talent runes, and we will talk about other things later."
There is no way, now that the competition has begun, everyone can only take it seriously.
At the same time, the barrage in the live broadcast room was also completely boiling.
「我敲，这蜘蛛什么东西，看不懂啊！」
「怎么感觉跟我们青铜局一样，英雄瞎勾八选。」
"How do you play the top laner Spider?"
It's impossible. Is EDG trying to play the double jungle routine from ancient times? "
"Mao's double jungler, what's the difference between this version of double jungler and Bai Ge?" Ever since Brother Mo started playing in the game, he has changed heroes every game, and each one is more evil than the other. What kind of hero sea is this? "
"But to be fair, the spider can only be developed when hitting the wine barrel. The first wine barrel directly reveals the green armor, and the spider can't fight."
"…"
The audience heatedly discussed and expressed their incomprehension about EDG's last move of spider.
In the commentary box, Guan Zeyuan also said: "Although I don't know what happened on EDG's side, judging from the current situation, the game has really started, which shows that EDG did not choose the wrong hero. At this time, the lineups of both sides have been determined:
· EDG red side, G2 blue side:
Top laner: Spider VS Barrel
Jungler: Male Spear VS Blind Monk
Mid laner: Murloc VS Enchantress
ADC: Varus VS Ice
Support: Lulu VS Zyra"
Miller also followed up with analysis: "The top laner Spider is facing the wine barrel... Fortunately, the opponent is the wine barrel. I think the spider will at least have no problem in the lane and can stabilize its development."
Guan Zeyuan continued: "But having said that, it is useless for you to develop. Spider is a rhythm hero. He needs to help his teammates establish an advantage in the early stage. Online development does not play a big role."
"The wine barrel is much more useful than the spider when playing in a group. Fortunately, the opponent is G2. In this game, Brother Mo Zi may wait for his teammates to perform."
Entering the game screen, Su Mo's spider chose Dolan Ring to go out.
The director also gave him a special close-up to satisfy the audience's curiosity.
Then something outrageous happened again.
Su Mo's spider did not go up, but went to the middle.
On the contrary, Scout's little murloc is walking up the road.
“Huh?” Guan Zeyuan was stunned. He glanced back and forth at the little fish man and the spider several times to make sure he had read the ID correctly.
"If I'm not mistaken, this spider is played by Mo, right? Why is he going to the middle lane?"
Miller guessed: "Is it because... he chose the wrong spider and felt that it was difficult to fight on the top lane... That's not right, I feel that it is much easier to fight against the wine barrel than against the Enchantress."
In the official live broadcast room, barrages were being posted:
"Okay, okay, let's play this way, we obviously have a chance to qualify first in the group, so we have to waste the opportunity."
"Is it inflated because we won SKT yesterday?"
"EDG is definitely inflated, otherwise how could we select this kind of hero?"
"Brothers, I dare not watch it. Tell me the result after the game."
At this time, in the SKT lounge, everyone in SKT was also paying close attention to this game.
Before losing to EDG yesterday, SKT was concerned about EDG, but was not very worried.
They feel that EDG is not difficult to deal with, but after yesterday, EDG has become their number one enemy.
"Brother Xianghe, what does this spider mid laner...have to say?" Little Peanut looked at Faker.
Faker's hero pool goes without saying. He even said in interviews that any hero can be used to play in the middle, depending on the needs of the team.
So it’s definitely right to ask him about this kind of thing.
However, this time Faker also hesitated.
In the past, he thought that any hero could play the mid laner, but this was somewhat pretentious.
If the qualifying match goes well, let him play any hero in the middle and he will be confident.
But this is the MSI Mid-Season World Championship, and what matters is the rationality of the lineup!
This spider mid laner is too extreme, right?
What does this guy Mo think?
After a few seconds of silence, Faker said:
"Let's take a look again."
Obviously, he didn't know either!
When the first wave of soldiers came out, Su Mo's spider stood under the second tower in the middle road. He waited until the soldiers came over and then moved forward with them.
This can avoid being discovered in advance to switch lines.
The same goes for Scout's little murloc, who has been hiding behind the defense tower, not giving the other side a chance to see it.
The director warned: "Mo, if you can't beat the middle lane, then grow it. It's normal for a hero like you to not be able to beat the Enchantress. As long as you don't get single-killed, that's fine. In this game, my male gun will grow first. When the bottom lane reaches level 6, I will lead the bottom lane. Be careful."
Su Mo smiled: "Don't be so afraid, factory, I can kill the opponent alone."
The factory director frowned: "Be careful, you don't need to kill the opponent alone, just don't wait for me to carry."
Even though he trusted Su Mo, it was still a bit hard to believe that he could kill the Enchantress alone with a spider.
"Spider is a hero who cannot be trivial. He must attack. Either he explodes on the other side or I explode, otherwise it is like self-destruction." Su Mo responded.
He now has the ultimate proficiency of spiders and knows exactly what the spider's shortcomings are.
[Acquire torture points +20 from the factory director]
The director felt that he had said so much in vain: "Okay, then you can watch and play."
Soon the Enchantress appeared in the middle, and Su Mo stepped forward to prepare to confront the Enchantress.
"Spider? The other side changed lanes?"
"Why is the little murloc on the road?"
On G2's side, the middle and upper players gave signals to each other and sent several question marks in succession.
Suddenly, the pilot camera turned to the bottom lane, and a fight started in the bottom lane!
"There is an ambush!" Meiko was ambushed, and opposite Han Bing and Zyra were ambush in the grass.
Meiko's Lulu subconsciously wanted to enter the grass after going online, but was controlled by Zyra's E skill. With plants and ice, she output crazy output!
"You go!" Zet's Varus reacted quickly. He chose the level 1 E skill and used the E skill to slow down the two opponents.
However, Ice also has a slowdown. The continuous slowdown and Zyra's plant output chase Lulu. Lulu's body is already very fragile, so she can only flash.
"I didn't dodge anymore." Meiko provided information.
The factory director shook his head, his expression became more serious. This BP was already a major failure. It was tricked at level one, which felt like a collapse of the game.
G2 retreated from the bottom lane and pulled away. Their goal was achieved, getting rid of the hatred of the minions first.
Guan Zeyuan explained: "The bottom lane exploded at the first level. Lulu was beaten to residual health and lost her flash. How will she line up in the future? If he wants to go back, Varus won't be able to gain experience alone."
I remember being in trouble: "This scene... I feel it’s even harder than playing SKT yesterday. G2 was very well prepared, just a small routine at level one, and EDGBP’s mistakes...it’s so difficult.”
"Well done, EDG, this is the familiar feeling."
"Yesterday's EDG was very strange, but today's EDG is just like that!"
"Here it comes, brothers, for foreign war amateurs, this is EDG!"
Seeing the minion's health remaining, Su Mo's spider handed over a W skill to explode the spider.
Seeing the self-destructing spider, Enchantress pulled back first, so the self-destructing spider took the initiative to move towards the soldier line, and the three melee soldiers took it away.
The second wave of soldiers came to the line, and the Enchantress continued to come up to put pressure.
As before, Su Mo continued to use self-destructing spiders to keep the distance from the Enchantress.
So the moment the Enchantress reached level two, she came up with W and then retreated after AQA, and the spider had no chance to fight back.
· Guan Zeyuan commented: "The middle lane is obviously difficult to fight. At first, I thought there was some trick in it, but now it seems that Mo is a bit difficult to play."
Hwa agreed: "Yes, it seems that EDG can only rely on the top lane and the bottom lane at the moment. No, the bottom lane is unreliable. The bottom lane was squeezed out of the experience area at the first level. Lulu returned to the city to replenish supplies. Now she is back online. She has poor experience. The distance is very large. "
Hence, the director showed the camera to the top lane, where the murloc was facing the wine barrel. The two of them obviously exchanged health, and both of them were not satisfied with their health. However, the wine barrel handed over a W skill to trigger the passive, and the health was quickly restored.
But the little fishman is not good enough, and he is still reluctant to take medicine.
Miller explained: "Why do I feel like... I can't defeat all three lines."
On the middle road, the third wave of troops is coming, and there are artillery and carriage troops that can be upgraded to three.
The Enchantress comes up first to do a wave of consumption, taking advantage of the spider to hit the last hit, and the QWA is fully output.
At the moment when Enchantress W came up, Spider handed over a W and detonated it instantly, keeping up with AQA.
Then switch to spider form and walk forward. After Enchantress W returns, bite her with a Q, and the little spider comes up to help.
Originally, the Enchantress planned to fight and retreat at the same time, but after being bitten by the little spider, he found that he could not fight, so he pulled behind the soldier.
Su Mo gave up the pursuit, otherwise he would be beaten by the soldiers.
This exchange of blood actually made a profit.
Miller saw this scene and said: "This time, Enchantress underestimated the enemy a little, which is understandable. After all, I have never faced a spider before, and I didn't expect the little spider to be quite powerful."
"For Perkz, he can continue to get familiar with the laning process, and overall he still has an advantage."
Suddenly, bad news came from the bottom lane.
Lulu was killed by the opponent!
"The opponent's duo didn't even flash." Meiko was a little helpless. He was flashed at level 1. This time, the opponent sent two flashes to kill him, and he had no choice.
The factory director's scalp was numb: "Hold on, I haven't even finished the first round, and you're starting to give them away."
Meiko responded: "It's mainly because they were ambushed at level one. Teams like them are pretty disgusting now. SKT was the same yesterday, playing tricks at level one." Well, but now... why is this spider mid laner C...
The director's mouth twitched slightly: "Mo, just hold your own in the lane, you think I didn't see you being beaten in the middle, right?"
Su Mo smiled: "Don't be impatient, be patient."
After saying that, he looked at the Enchantress on the opposite side who was about to move, his eyes narrowed slightly.
