Chapter 108 Transform into a devil! Battle against King Pilsen!
Rita came in and started complaining.
Hearing this, everyone in EDG began to wink.
This statement seems to be ambiguous, even a bit explicit.
"Wow!" Aguang started to act weird and made strange sounds.
Meiko said: "Then let's go first and give them some private space."
At this moment, Rita quickly explained: "I mean I can't see Brother Mo Zi, and there is no chance for interviews!"
Su Mo suddenly said: "Are you sick?"
"Sick?" Rita seemed not to understand Qingliang.
“Otherwise why are you blushing?” Su Mo asked back.
"So, Brother Mozi, you are..." Rita hadn't finished speaking yet.
Su Mo took two steps back and said jokingly: "Keep one meter away, don't talk to me, droplets will spread!"
"Get torture points +20 from Rita"
"Brother Mozi!" Rita rolled her eyes, "You want to piss me off, right?"
"It's just a joke, don't be so excited." Su Mo smiled.
"Brother Mozi, you are so...too...too..." Rita faltered.
"Too handsome?" Su Mo added for her, "I've known this for a long time."
Rita's mouth twitched.
Originally, what she wanted to say was "It's so irritating", but now...
"It's so shameless!" She changed her words.
After speaking, Rita said seriously: "Brother Mo Zi, let's stop making trouble. Let's start the personal interview now. I want to ask..."
Rita thought she could start the interview, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Su Mo took half a step back.
"Brother Mozi, are you serious about taking half a step back?" Rita blinked.
"You're wrong, I just changed my stance." While speaking, Su Mo took another half step back.
【Get torture points +30 from Rita】
"Served! Hot!" Rita's mentality exploded.
After being tortured by Su Mo, Rita was finally able to start the interview. She recorded it on her mobile phone while doing the interview and was obviously going to post it online.
"Brother Mo Zi, now that you have won the group stage, you will face T in the knockout round. Do you have anything to say? Will you feel pressure?"
Su Mo felt a bit outrageous when he heard this question. They are both first in the group, and T is fourth in the group, how can there be pressure.
But on second thought, there have indeed been too many surprises in the LPL World Championship in recent years, so it is not completely understandable that everyone is worried.
"This question mainly depends on the factory. He is the captain, our absolute core, the soul of EDG! If he doesn't have confidence, then we definitely don't have it either, and vice versa."
Su Mo kicked the ball to the factory director.
The factory director was stunned after hearing this: "What's going on? How did it get involved with me?"
Rita smiled and stepped forward to ask: "Director, what do you think about this question? Are you confident?"
The factory director originally planned to answer normally and say something polite, but Su Mo just said it so bluntly, it seems inappropriate to be cowardly at this time.
"No problem, we can win!" The factory director spoke confidently.
So Rita ran back and asked Su Mo: "Brother Mozi, will you continue to change positions in the knockout rounds? You have played top laner, mid laner, jungler in the group stage, what about the knockout rounds?"
Su Mo suddenly became serious: "This is our strategy, it is confidential, so it is not convenient to disclose it now. Of course, you can go to Coach Abramovich, and he should be able to decide whether to tell you or not."
Rita thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Manager Abu, is what Brother Mozi said just now true? Is this your tactic? Are the knockout rounds also arranged?"
Abu looked at Su Mo with a question mark on his face, what the hell?
Su Mo made a sudden decision every time he changed lanes, without any warning. If Su Mo had not proven himself so many times, Abu would not have agreed to this behavior.
Su Mo winked and asked Abu to make up a story.
"Well... that's more or less it. It's indeed our tactic, but it's not convenient to reveal it now because it may affect whether we can win the game." Abu was serious and made the matter very serious.
"That's right, well, if fans are curious, they can analyze EDG's previous games by themselves, maybe they will have the answer."
Everyone in EDG walked out while being interviewed. When they reached the door, the interview was basically over.
There are many EDG fans waiting outside, and everyone at EDG is warmly welcomed.
After returning to the hotel from the competition venue, everyone in EDG went to have a meal together, and then went back to review today's game.
At the same time, after Rita put the interview video online, it caused a heated discussion!
"Is there such a thing? I thought EDG's substitutions were made on the spur of the moment."
"Are you kidding? How could such an important matter be decided on the spur of the moment? Do you think you're just trying to play house?"
"Brother Mo Zi hasn't played in the bottom lane yet, so he doesn't know how to play in the knockout round, so he's starting to play in the bottom lane, right?"
"Don't tell me, if he really comes out like this, the opponent will definitely not be able to react."
"Brother Mo Zi really knows all positions. The bottom lane is about coordination, not personal strength."
Little Peanut was dumbfounded by Kkoma. He shrank his head and remained silent.
Kkoma breathed a sigh of relief, stabilized his mood, and then said:
You need to spend a lot of time with him.”
Suddenly, Huni, who was secretly playing with his mobile phone next to him, said:
“Coach Kkoma, I suddenly saw something good! About Mo!”
Kkoma looked over and asked, “What good thing?”
Huni explained: "A female host from their LPL division went to interview them after today's game, and then asked Mo a few questions, asking him if he would continue to change positions in the knockout rounds."
As soon as he heard this, everyone became interested, which is crucial.
The most difficult thing to deal with o now is the line change.
If you don’t know which position the opponent is playing, it will be difficult to formulate a complete plan.
If three sets are formulated at the same time, the workload will be too much and it will be thankless.
“What did he say?” Kkoma asked.
"He said that this was their tactic and it was not convenient to reveal it. Then their coach admitted that it was indeed a tactic that was planned in advance and was not a spur-of-the-moment decision."
"Some people speculate that Mo may play in the bottom lane in the knockout round, catching us off guard."
Huni is a little excited, feeling that he has discovered a secret and may make a big contribution!
"Play the bottom lane?" Kkoma frowned, he really hadn't considered this aspect.
If he were in a game and suddenly heard that Mo was going to play the bottom lane, his mind would go blank and he would have no plan to prepare for this!
Fortunately, I have thought of it now! There is still time to prepare.
Suddenly, Faker spoke: "It's impossible. The three positions of midfielder, upperfielder, and jungler can be played interchangeably because the middle, upperfielder, and jungler are often integrated. They have frequent linkages and understand each other better."
"However, whether the bottom lane is ADC or support, it is completely different from the midfielder or top jungler. No one can switch freely."
Wolf agreed: "I think Brother Xiang He is right. I don't believe that this person can play support. Really, you may think that playing support is a very simple thing, but it is not simple at all."
The support position is at the bottom of the contempt chain, with the lowest salary and the lowest requirements for players.
Huni reminded: "But are there any professional players who can play the three positions of midfield, upper field? No. Before meeting him, if someone told you that there is such a player who can play Kyrie in all three positions, you must be thinking the same way now, and think it is impossible."
Kkoma suddenly felt that this statement made sense: "This possibility does exist..."
Suddenly, Kkoma had an idea: "Training match! We can observe their situation through training matches!"
"Now there are only four teams left, us, them, FW and T. We play FW, and they are willing to play in the training match. They will definitely not ask T, so they can only come to us and FW!"
Faker interjected: "I don't think they will come to us. They will definitely regard us as their final opponents. Even if they come to us, it will be to test our trump card. They will definitely hide it themselves."
Kkoma summed it up: "So, they will come up with real things when they play training games with FW! He will definitely need to train in advance to change positions. We can know what they are practicing through FW!"
The next morning, everyone in EDG got up, had something to eat, and started training for the day.
When Su Mo came to the training room, others had already started to prepare.
Abu greeted: "You are the only one missing. We have made an appointment with FW for a training match. Let's start when we are ready."
"FW? Didn't they not play training matches with us? Have they changed their mind?" Su Mo asked curiously.
"They can only play training matches with us. They can't play with SKT. I guess they don't like G2." Abramovich explained.
“Don’t like G2? They don’t seem to be better than G2.” Su Mo said and sat down, preparing to play a training match.
After saying that, Su Mo suddenly noticed A Guang standing behind the factory director, his eyes eager.
A Guang has not played during this period and has been guarding the water dispenser...
"Brother Bu, why don't you let A Guang play? He seems to have not practiced for a long time. Practice a few times to keep the feel." Su Mo said.
"Me?" Ah Guang's eyes suddenly became bright, which were already dim.
"Yes, it's you."
A Guang looked at Abu, and he still needed Abu to make a decision.
"Then come on." Abu responded.
「Okay!」
So Su Mo stood up and made way for A Guang.
The factory director glanced at Su Mo: "Are you lazy again?"
Su Mo walked up behind the factory director: "I'm here to supervise you, factory, you'd better compete with Kerry."
"That's necessary!" The factory director spoke confidently.
The training match has begun, and the director picked out the blind monk in the first match. It seems that he really wants to practice.
It was difficult to win the first game, and it was obvious that the factory director had not played for a while.
In the end, we relied on Scout's perfect performance in the middle to win.
Originally, Abu only planned to let A Guang play two or three hot hands, but he found that when A Guang played, the effect was quite good. Without Su Mo, the training of others was better, so he continued to let A Guang play.
Four days passed quickly, and on May 20th, the semifinals began!
The first is SKT playing FW.
·EDG everyone gathered together to watch the game.
Abu said: "Although the gap between the two teams is relatively obvious, let's take a look, take a serious look, maybe we can learn something."
Players from both sides came on stage and shook hands.
· The factory director muttered: "It feels like FW and SKT have a very good relationship, have you noticed?"
· Meiko guessed: "After all, SKT is the Triple Crown champion, and many professional players are SKT fans, which is normal."
The game process was pretty much what everyone in EDG thought. FW could occasionally resist, but there was basically no hope of victory.
In the end, SKT easily won 3-0. In the end, the two teams even stood in the middle of the stage and bowed together. This relationship was not a good one.
The game is over. To everyone's disappointment, there is basically no gain. SKT won easily with a regular lineup and regular play style.
After an uneventful night, at noon the next day, everyone from EDG came to the competition venue again.
Today’s opponent is T!
The car entered the venue parking lot, and after it stopped, everyone got out of the car.
Abu greeted: "Check your things, don't forget."
As soon as he got off the car, Su Mo saw a group of people approaching.
The leader is a handsome young man with blond hair, white skin, and polite manners.
Pilsen!
North America Dharma King!
There are four moving eye positions behind him... Oh no, they are four teammates.
They are naturally the T-Team.
After getting closer, T's coach took the initiative to say hello to Abramovich. Neither player was too familiar with him, but they just exchanged glances and regarded it as hello.
【Detect the presence of "Dharma King" in the host's hostile team, trigger the hidden mission:
Task 1: Surrender, admit your sins, ask for forgiveness, change your mind, reward title: Prodigal Son Returns
Task 2: Use a system-random demon hero to participate in the game and take the middle route. Reward: 1 Ultimate Proficiency Card.
Task 3: One hundred times of on-site hand punching, the reward title: God of Glue Fighting! 】
"Task two, task two, system, can you do other tasks more seriously?" Su Mo was speechless.
But this demon hero... Su Mo has no idea.
The panel suddenly appeared:
[Demon heroes: Evelyn, the Demon of Bliss, Swain, the Secret Demon, Tam, the Greed Demon, Nocturne, the Nightmare Demon, and Fiddlesticks, the Fear Demon]
There were actually five more, which Su Mo did not expect.
He has played Nocturne before and is proficient in it.
But now that it’s said to be random, it depends on luck.
After greeting everyone from T, everyone from EDG entered the lounge and began to prepare for the game.
Su Mo suddenly said: "Brother Bu, I want to hit the middle in this game."
Hum?" Everyone looked over, and everyone was in a state of confusion.
The factory director muttered: "It seems that Bilson didn't have a conflict with you just now. Could it be that he gave you a bad look? Didn't we notice?"
Su Mo explained: "Of course not."
The factory director asked: "Then why do you want to change positions suddenly? You didn't say anything before, couldn't it be Bilson looking for you again? Is there really such a thing?"
The last time he played against G2, the factory director suspected that Su Mo was making up a story, but he won that time and had no worries afterwards.
Su Mo started to make up a story on the spot: "Of course it's not for these reasons. Actually, it's for A Guang's sake."
Originally A Guang was sitting in the corner playing with his mobile phone, and he felt that he would definitely not play in the game.
A Guang suddenly raised his head, as if he heard something.
"Did I hallucinate? Someone seemed to be calling me?" Aguang muttered.
"There is no auditory hallucination, I am just calling you, go up and play top lane in this game!" Su Mo responded.
"Ah, is it true?" Aguang seemed unable to believe his ears.
He has actually thought about it for a long time. He saw EDG double-killing SKT, winning the first place in the group stage, and making great progress. He has never played a game, and it is impossible not to have an idea in his mind.
But I didn’t dare to say it before. After all, we have been winning, so there is no need to change players.
"Of course it's true. If you don't play now, if I stretch my hips in the finals and Brother Bu suddenly asks you to play, you will definitely not be able to adapt, so it's good to go up and play one or two games now." After explaining, Su Mo looked at Abu, "That's right, Brother Bu. "
"Oh, so it's because of this! I know what you mean. Although Aguang played in the training match, the official match and the training match are two different things. It's best to take it out for a walk and you will know whether it is a mule or a horse." Abu has no objection to Su Mo's suggestion.
"That's what it means." Su Mo continued.
The matter is settled.
A Guang ran over: "Mo, you are really my brother, you understand me!"
Seeing A Guang's grateful face, Su Mo scratched his head. This was actually a requirement of the system that he had to play in the middle, so he had to find an excuse not to go on the road, that's why he said this.
【Starting to randomly select heroes...】
After the location is determined, the mission has made progress!
【The Widow Maker, Evelyn. 】
"Huh? Can this hit the middle? Change it."
【Do you want to spend 1000 torture points to re-randomize? 】
【Randomizing...】
【Tactics leader, Swain, remaining torture points are 1365. 】
Crow! It's a crow!
It can now be randomized once.
But among the remaining choices, Evelynn is definitely not as good as Crow, and neither is Tam. Nightmare?
As for Nightmare, it depends on what hero you are facing.
Finally, there is Fiddlesticks Scarecrow, this hero is not good in the lane either.
Although Crow seems to be too unpopular, he is already the most suitable among the five heroes to play in the middle. He is positioned as the mid laner.
That’s it!
In the commentary box of the game, Rita, Wang Duoduo, and Remember were ready.
Wang Duoduo explained: "What is about to begin is the semi-finals of this MSI, with EDG from the LPL division facing off against LC."
"So far, EDG has been in very good undefeated form. I hope they can continue their previous performance." Going to EDG is a big adjustment for them, but in e-sports, everything is possible! "
Rita suddenly said: "I received news from the front that EDG will adjust the starting lineup for this game. Mouse will appear in the top lane, and our favorite Brother Mozi will appear in the mid lane!"
Double monthly tickets at the end of the month, please vote bosses!
Then I would like to thank the boss "Lin Yining 010" for the 5,000-coin reward. He is awesome!
