Chapter 222 Korean audience: I have the advantage!
"What does LCK mean?" "I think it's okay, right? After all, they are indeed their own players, but now they are playing in the LPL. When they are competing for international honors, it is normal to recall them." "Bad! EDG's mid-top is a bit strong. What kind of mid-top will our side send then?" "It doesn't matter. If you mess with Rang, you will take action!" [Zha Rang, Letme’s title this season, his Ornn can never lag too far behind anyone, and he won’t raise his father. So now people who praise him call him an equal top laner, and The Rang is the ID of Theshy. 】 "Come on, Letme is the B-type, you want him to beat Smeb?" "When Aoun moved, he found no such person!" "No, the key is there's no one around now." "957?" "957 is in bad shape right now and is completely out of control."
The 8 of the S957 is no longer as stunning as the S7. In the final analysis, the version has changed. As long as the top laner of S7 can play solo, it will be effective in any way. But S8 is different. The top lane of S8 already places great emphasis on confrontation. At this time, the age of 957 became a fatal issue. It is difficult for him to maintain a good state for a long time. Some people will say, aren't you using your age as an excuse?
It’s really not the case, let’s just say that Lee Sang Hyuk has perfectly proved that he can win even at an older age. Even if it was Lee Sang Hyuk, in the World Championship that year when he won the championship again in S13, his form would still decline in the next few games of BO5. This is normal. Even many young players are not focused enough to hold on to a BO5. 957 is a profession that I started playing after I finished college. It is already difficult to maintain a long-term and high-intensity laning state. So in the current version of S8 that emphasizes laning, he has begun to become mediocre. Just when everyone was thinking about who else could play the top lane, someone asked a more critical question:
"Mid laner, who will beat Lee Sang Hyuk?" After all, compared to the top laner who can still choose to be the shield of China, if the mid-level unit cannot withstand the pressure, the consequences will be much more serious. Lee Sang Hyuk's laning pressure is no longer as strong as before, but he still can't withstand much. Rookie doesn't have much pressure. But...the problem is that rookie is also Korean. After excluding Rookie, the remaining mid laners are probably Guanhu and Xiye. Someone soon said, "How is it possible to close the account? Didn't he just designate to fly? When has he ever defeated Faker?" The current record against Faker is indeed a bit ugly.
But he is already one or two of the strongest domestic mid laners after excluding Rookie. Not even the other mid laners. Then choose Xiye?
"Xiye? But Xiye doesn't travel much. What if he can't stop Faker?" Soon someone said it wasn't working. Xiye is the core of WE, and the junglers have to work around him. The frequency of wandering is very low. Once he loses sight of Faker, then the middle lane might as well be a kill. At least Ryze, who is good at kill, can continue to push the lane. Netizens are worried, even more worried than the players! At this time, Xu Yuan felt nothing at all. "Aren't you worried about losing at the Asian Games?" Meiko noticed the expression of her old partner and asked casually. "It's not something we can interfere with in selecting people. If we really can't win, there's nothing we can do about it. Just do our best. Why worry so much?" Xu Yuan spread his hands. He's not the one who can decide the roster. No matter what lineup he plays, that's it. "Then who do you think Zhongshang will be?" Meiko was a little curious. Xu Yuan glanced at him and slowly took a sip of milk tea. "As for the mid laner, it's most likely Xiye." "If you want to talk about why...the record against Faker before the account was closed was a bit ugly, so it was difficult to gain trust." "Xiye has defeated Faker alone before with Lucian. He has an advantage in this regard, but there is also a problem." Meiko scratched her head in confusion, "What's the problem?" Xu Yuan relaxed his wrist and spoke calmly. "The middle and jungle are one." "So if the jungle position is decided before the mid laner, then the coordination between the mid laner and the jungler will be taken into consideration." "If the jungler in this Asian Games is Mala Xiang Guo, then the possibility of losing the account will be higher because they cooperate more often." The truth is not difficult to understand, and Meiko immediately understood what he meant. If the jungler chooses RNG, then the mid laner will probably choose RNG due to coordination issues. Just like if the AD is determined to be Xu Yuan, then the assistant will basically be Meiko.
After all, this was the first time for the Asian Games, and the preparations were relatively hasty, with no systematic grouping and selection of players. [However, when I think about the fact that I won this time without any special preparation, and I lost the second time that I specially prepared for the training time, I feel that the preparation is a bit funny. 】 Time passes little by little, and with one month left before the start of the Asian Games, the final lineup is finally announced! League of Legends: “We are happy to announce to everyone that the selection of the Chinese team for the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games has been determined. The following is the list of personnel: Top order: Yan Junze [Letme] Jungler: Gao Tianliang [Tian] Mid laner: Su Hanwei [Xiye] ADC: Xu Yuan [Savior], Jian Aoao [Uzi] Assist: Field【Meiko】 Head Coach: Ji Xing
I wish the players good results in the upcoming 2018 Jakarta Asian Games! " This news was sent by the official account of the League of Legends, so the authenticity goes without saying. Xu Yuan's eyes passed over [Uzi] in the AD position, without any sense of surprise. Although the absolute starter will definitely be Xu Yuan, Uzi's popularity has always been acceptable. Which fan of an AD player in the LPL can still help the player summon his soul every time the LPL loses a game a few years after the player retires?
There is only Uzi. His popularity is really high. In fact, looking at Uzi and Theshy, the two major traffic players in the LPL, it is not difficult to find that the two people are actually somewhat similar. Both of them are players who like to suppress online, and they also have famous scenes of operation. And such players usually stand out easily. Naturally, he attracts more fans than tool player players. Especially Uzi, as the absolute core of RNG, the one who guarantees four and one. It’s hard not to think brightly. Because if he can't stand out as a player, then RNG has already lost. The starter will definitely be Xu Yuan. After all, he has two MSIs, one S championship, two spring championships and one summer championship in his debut year and a half, and he is also a FMVP player in the finals. Such an achievement is undoubtedly gorgeous. But you can still play Uzi as a substitute. So Xu Yuan is not surprised at all, because popular players can do whatever they want. Give me an example.
After the S13 fight, Theshy stopped playing because he felt that WBG gave him too little money. As a result, Theshy's fans turned the WBG boss into a sunflower. Even if Shitou hurriedly swore and swore that he would give me as much as he could, it would be useless. It must be your WBG that delayed my brother!
Why didn’t WBG renew my brother’s contract? My brother must have been wronged!
Anyway, the main theme is a fantasy. If fans feel that he has been wronged, they will charge for him. Even if Theshy came out to refute the rumors, it would be useless. Instead, fans would feel that he was being coerced. After all, no one can wake up a person who is pretending to sleep. Everyone knows that no one wants Theshy. Why do you still want to get tens of millions when you were beaten to 1/16 by your opponent in the final? You can just be an anchor and beg for food. Of course, if you want Theshy to go to the bottom team casually, it is indeed possible. After all, there are always those who are taken advantage of, specifically bought to divert traffic. But with Theshy's pride, would he be willing?
Theshy after S13 was like bronze and silver in the mouth of an electric baton. You say let him go to a top team like BLG or JDG, but he can't go. There's no other way, BLG can't compete, and JDG can't spend this kind of money. But if you let him go to those garbage teams, he won't be happy. He felt that the configuration of those rubbish teams was too rubbish and not worthy of him. No way, I'm stuck here. This is also thanks to the fact that he is a popular player. If he did not have such popularity... It’s time to retire after finishing S10. pandac's fate is his best fate. So Xu Yuan is really not surprised about Uzi, but he is more surprised about the jungle position. The original jungler should be from Mala Xiangguo, which is why Xu Yuan said that the probability of canceling the account is higher. After all, there is no separation between center and jungle. The results of it?
Now the jungle position has been directly replaced by EDG jungler Xiaotian, who just achieved results at MSI. Strictly speaking, Xiaotian is just a new jungler. But the Asian Games Committee still chose him. The meaning revealed is very clear:
They just want results. That's why I chose Xiaotian, who had just performed well at MSI, even though he was a newcomer. As the jungler became Xiaotian, Xiye's position in the middle became naturally stable. After all, you can’t even serve the spicy hot pot yourself, so how can you possibly go there with your canceled account?
As for the work unit, there is nothing much to say about this.
Today's top laners in the LPL are too few who are great. Ale is still in SDG, Bin is even as famous as Biubiu, and Xu Yuan, the breathing brother, I don’t know where he is. And a top laner like Zoom was not selected because he had no experience in the World Championship. As Qingfeng's number one enemy, Letme is pretty rubbish at fighting, but she still knows how to deal with it. When 957 is no longer as good as S7, it is quite normal to choose Letme. Looking at the entire roster, EDG, which has the best results, has won three players from the jungle and bottom lane team, plus a coach. The slightly inferior RNG won one starter and one substitute. WE's performance was worse than RNG, with only one mid laner. Xu Yuan didn't know if it was because he was sharing the cake. But rationally speaking, this lineup is indeed one of the best lineups currently available in the LPL. "Wuhu~!" Xiaotian's cheers came from behind him. In Xiaotian's view, being selected for the Asian Games roster is undoubtedly recognition of his ability. Naturally very happy. Meiko's expression became more serious during training. In fact, he was under more pressure than Xiaotian. why?
Because AD is too strong and popular. For the bot lane team as a whole, if the AD is too strong, the things the support does will be subconsciously ignored. Many people will think, is Meiko really worthy? Especially RNG fans, in their eyes Ming's performance is equally outstanding. Xiao Ming’s mother fan said it after the S7 World Championship,
"If EDG's assistant is Xiao Ming, then EDG can still win the championship." After all, anyone with Xu Yuanshang can easily destroy the opponent. Then who knows whether your support performance is good or not?
So now that Meiko has confirmed that she is on the list, she feels even more pressure. He must play a performance suitable for this position! RNG base. "Ah? Am I still on board?" Uzi's face looked a little embarrassed, but also a little happy. In the past, he was not convinced by Xu Yuan because Xu Yuan had no achievements.
But now they have proven themselves and won the championship. So Uzi already felt in his heart that Xu Yuan was a better player than him. Because of the finals of the MSI and S games in S7, he knew that it would be impossible to replace him. At least he can't stand that kind of military training, and there will definitely be problems with his mentality. Many people say that Uzi likes Hongwen, but does Uzi know it? I must know. He also knows that his temper is not very good, and he will be very impatient especially when he cannot beat the line. When the line is at a disadvantage, Uzi will be very angry if his teammates make any mistakes. He knew all this, but it was too difficult for him to change. This is how my career has gone for so many years. When he was in the royal family, there were Shenchao and others who coaxed him to play. After he got to RNG, he had to cancel his account and coaxed him to play with Letme. Who is he?
He's Uzi! He thinks it's really normal for top players to have a little temper. He performed in line with his treatment, so why can't he pressure his teammates?
If he plays poorly, will RNG teammates follow him like this? Just think about it and you know it's impossible. Unless he doesn't call Jane proud, but Bai proud. So although Uzi knew that there was something wrong with his temper, he had no intention of changing it. As long as we win the championship, these problems won't be a problem. Seeing his name at the bottom, Uzi was a little embarrassed. After all, everyone knows the unspoken rules of this kind of competition. The player whose name is ranked last means that he is a substitute. It's not like Uzi has never been a substitute. He played as a substitute for a long time when he was in OMG. So although it's a bit embarrassing, it's still acceptable. So he is more... happy. Even Uzi is very happy to be able to play at this level of competition. On the one hand, this can be regarded as bringing glory to the country. On the other hand...the Asian Games is only held once every four years. This may be the first and last Asian Games he can experience in his career. Uzi's injuries are now very serious, and he also knows that his career has entered the countdown. As long as I can go, I will definitely be happy. but……
When he saw Letme was there and starting, Uzi felt a little sour. I, Uzi, can only be a substitute, how come you, Letme, are still in the starting lineup?
its not right!
I am the protagonist!
"Am I selected?" In fact, Letme was more confused than him. He has always been a person who has a very clear understanding of himself. He knows very well how capable he is and how much he can do. Facing a top laner like Smeb, Letme was really under a lot of pressure. Don't look at those people who boast that he is equal to all living beings. In fact, when he beat Smeb, his handle almost exploded. why?
Because other teams still have to worry about Uzi in the bottom lane, they need more heroes to move to the bottom lane. So his Ornn can be played easily. But EDG didn't move down the lane at all. Because their bottom lane is harder! As a result, whenever RNG played EDG this season, Letme's Ornn was never released. He has never been equal to Smeb. Suddenly learning that she was selected, Letme was happy but also a little worried. If he can't get heroes like Orn Thane, he really doesn't have much confidence to shoulder this important task. Just as he was thinking hard about how to line up when the time came, his brows suddenly widened. It seems like...Ornn will have a chance to play!
Because the bottom lane of the Asian Games is the bottom lane that is harder than their RNG bottom lane!
Uzi is often targeted. Has Xu Yuan been targeted a few times?
Letme can't even remember how many teams moved to AD when playing EDG. When he thought of this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, the advantage is mine!
Savior, you must give a hard C!
please!
Xu Yuan, who has high hopes from Letme:... letme? 【No feeling】 At the same time, there was a different scene in the WE Club. "Where's the Xiye people?" After receiving the news, the WE team leader came to the door of the training room excitedly. He looked inside, looking a little excited. "Training." 957 pushed up his glasses and replied with a smile. "He already knows?" "Well, Wangzi started training directly after seeing the news." Team WE leader exhaled, "We must seize this opportunity." The current WE situation can be described as having many disasters.
The outbreak of the Condi incident meant that they could not find any outstanding junglers for a while, and 957's continued sluggish state also made WE's road to the playoffs somewhat stumbling. Only Xiye and Mystic in the bottom lane are still struggling to support today's WE. The club's fans are losing like crazy. After all, no one wants the player they follow to be a ladybug. The results started to get worse again, and the number of fans started to decrease again. This has directly led to WE's current ability to make money plummeting and making it increasingly poor. Naturally, the fastest way to attract fans is in international competitions. Xu Yuan was directly promoted to the most popular AD player in the country after one MSI. The team leader of WE does not expect to be able to repeat Xu Yuan's miracle. He only hopes that he can restore some of WE's decline. 957 looked at Xiye's back in the training room and nodded. "He will." Xiye is a very unique player. As we all know, there are three laws about WE: 1. The law of death in hot weather
When you think Xiye is very fierce, he will immediately start to make a move, so that you can't help but write the words "Xi Laxiao Me" on the screen. 2. The law of internal violence and external violence. Xiye's level of excitement in foreign wars was always higher than in civil wars. The opponent's preference for cupping and being of Korean nationality will have certain bonuses to this effect. The specific amount depends on Xiye's mood that day. If the opponent is a Faker player, it will automatically be promoted to the highest level. In China, Xiye often acts as a power bank for account cancellations. Every time after playing WE, the status of account cancellations improves rapidly, which is very outrageous. But in the international competition, he accomplished the feat of killing Faker alone, which few people had accomplished at the time. And this is an achievement that no one can even dream of. 3. Double C conservation law. That is to say, "The carry ability of the two C positions is constant. If one is strong, the other will become weak." Xiye's peak as a player should be considered from the second half of the S7 Summer Split to the S8 Spring Split. The AD brother-in-law S6 in the bottom lane can be said to be an excellent AD. S7 was once considered the best in the world, but the S8 Spring Split was too strong. Now that they are awakening in the summer split, they have continuously won the first and third teams of lpl AD throughout the entire year of S9. When the brother-in-law controlled the game, Xiye transformed into a green leaf. When Xiye carried, the brother-in-law made jokes about the Pi City Police Assistant and the Ice Assistant. Although the current brother-in-law is awakening, he is still not in the same state as in the S7 Summer Split. So according to the law of conservation of double C, Xiye is really a bit fierce now.
This law is so puzzling, it’s almost as mysterious as quantum entanglement. All in all, it's very outrageous. According to the above three laws, Xiye's performance in the Asian Games will be in a superposition of fierceness and pull. It was fierce because the opponent was Faker and his brother-in-law was not in good condition, so Xiye should be very fierce. Pulling is because of the first law of WE. Because of the second and third laws, you think Xiye is very fierce. But this is when the first law is triggered:
When you feel that Xiye is very fierce, then he will pull. The WE leader did not mean to disturb the players and quietly left the training room. It's good to know. His original intention was to remind Xiye to train more. He is very satisfied now that the players are so conscious. At this time, other competition regions also already know the LPL roster. In fact, everyone's reaction was quite consistent. letme? Who are you? Tian? A jungler who seems a bit fierce and decisive when starting a team. Xiye? A bit of an impression, but not much. Savior? I am super, TOP ONE! Meiko? A true believer in Savior. Here is an explanation of the origin of the TOP ONE meme. Because ESPN has become Xu Yuan's loyal licking dog after S7MSI, at least on the surface. So every time they rank players, Xu Yuan will be ranked first no matter what the ranking is. including but not limited to: [Top Ten Most Suppressive ADC Players List] [List of the top ten ADC players with the best operations]
【Top Ten Most Handsome Players List】 [List of contestants who most want to date him] No matter which list they choose, they will rank Xu Yuan first without hesitation. Over time, the fun-loving nature of European and American audiences was triggered, and they gave Xu Yuan a nickname, TOP ONE. It means number one. Because ESPN has always ranked him No. 1, No. 1 is now synonymous with Xu Yuan. In fact, Xu Yuan also has a certain understanding of these lists. For example, that [list of players who most want to date him]. As far as he knew, after the list was compiled, it was unanimously recognized by British "gentlemen". Xu Yuan, who knew the news at that time, directly used the subway old man's mobile
byd, is burning 0 a bit too much in the UK?
If you are so hungry, I suggest you ask Gaul Silky Chicken to borrow some cotton machines. Korean netizens burst into laughter after seeing the list. I won’t mention Shimonosuke. He just lost to someone else in MSI and his face still hurts a little. But what the hell are you doing? Although the mid laner Xiye defeated Faker alone in the international competition, with the unremitting efforts of Faker fans, he successfully completed the history books. Now those two solo kills have become:
Because Condi frantically helped Xiye, Xiye killed Faker alone. How to put it... let's say it's reasonable, this is indeed the case. But to say it is unreasonable, it is really unreasonable. Because the mid laner often performs solo kills and really needs the invisible deterrence of the jungler. If the jungle can’t put pressure on... Everyone is a professional, no matter how poor the laning ability is, as long as they are not afraid of missing a kill, no one can be killed alone. If you can't defeat them, you can hide behind the tower, and you will never be able to kill them alone. Why are so many people talking about the combination of Faker and Bengi?
It's because when Faker needs Bengi to put pressure on him, Bengi will definitely be there. It is unrealistic to talk about solo kills without the influence of junglers. According to the broad sense of a single kill, a single kill without any assists is a single kill. Xiye's solo kill was real. However, it is impossible for Korean netizens to be convinced. If they just feel that LPL is overestimating its capabilities in the mid lane, then Letme in the top lane... They just think it's ridiculous.
"kkkkkkk, Yigu Mo? Yeah, have LPL friends been so humorous lately? Letme, my friend, I remember that your performance in the last World Championship was not very good, right?" "Hey Yigu, what's wrong with him? He can't even beat the European and American top laners, a classic LPL style top laner." However, some comments in this discussion are somewhat different. "I feel sorry for me, cheers for the Chinese team in the Asian Games!" They are Xu Yuan's personal fans. Such comments instantly detonated the forum, and Koreans couldn't stand it anymore. Xiba, so disgusting! "Xiba, where is the management of the forum? Ban this bastard!" However, they retorted directly. "Oh? Are you going to be expelled from the country just because you like LPL players? This is the inherent bad nature of Koreans!" "You Koreans are so bad!" Gradually, it started to develop into a war of words, because the current Korean net is very hostile. In fact, it is normal for them to be violent online. After all, the pressure in real life is too great, so we can only rely on the virtual network to vent. But there's a problem. Why has the hostility online in the LPL suddenly increased so much?
I won’t talk about too many things. If I talk about this, I will really explode. The LCK roster is even better than the LPL. Top order: Song Jinghao [Smeb] Jungler: Han Wanghu [Peanut] Mid laner: Lee Sang Hyuk [Faker] AD: Park Jae Hyuk [Ruler], Kim Jong In [Pray] Assist: CoreJJ
Head coach:kkoma
Assistant Coach: Effort
Rationally speaking, this lineup is probably the most luxurious lineup Xu Yuan has ever encountered since his career. Regardless of the substitute pray, there are basically world-class or even top-notch players in every position. Moreover, Smeb and Faker already have a very good cooperation with each other. Peanut and Faker were once teammates, so there is no need to talk about their cooperation. This top midfielder is really hard to beat. Although the performance of Ruler in the S8 season is not outstanding, his basic laning skills are still there. CoreJJ is an assistant who likes to play games with his brain. As long as there is no big gap in the bottom lane, the Korean team's midfield and top junglers are likely to gain an advantage.
And this advantage is definitely not small!
Coupled with the Korean AD Ruler, their late game is also guaranteed. It’s nothing more than Korean audiences being so confident
Because based on paper strength alone, the midfield and upper jungle in the LPL are completely inferior to them. On August 14, Xu Yuan went to the airport to see off Lee Sang Hyuk and Smeb back to South Korea. For both of them, it is possible to be exempted from military service by winning the Asian Games championship. Everyone knows about Korean military service, so they are determined to win. "The next time we meet, we will be our opponents." Before getting on the plane, Lee Sang Hyuk waved and said goodbye to Xu Yuan with a smile. "Waiting for you to pick up your runner-up." Xu Yuan's response was still flat. Lee Sang Hyuk's smile brightened a lot, "Let's go." Before the Asian Games begins... It’s been less than two weeks! (End of this chapter)
