Chapter 164: First Place in Group A, a Big Fight in the Top Lane

Chapter 164 - No. 1 in Group A, top lane battle

"RNG is still not strong enough, but that doesn't mean you have no problem in the bottom lane."

Back at base, first meeting.

The ones being criticized were still the duo in the bottom lane.

Fumanduo's review is still very skillful. It is not just a hindsight, but tries his best to guide the players to express their thoughts at the time, and then provides more possibilities to open up the players' ideas.

Yuan Shen, on the other hand, played solo with TheShy.

"There's no need to practice for a game like Gnar versus Yasuo. You're already good enough at it."

Yuan Shen looked thoughtfully at the two corpses displayed on his black and white screen.

Without the characteristics of top laner light and top lane dominance, and relying only on his personal basic attributes and S-class hero proficiency bonus, his operational level can probably be maintained at around 101.

If you use A-level hero proficiency, it will only be at a level of 94 to 95.

It is higher than the current TheShy, but it is also extremely limited.

It still depends on the hero’s restraint relationship.

"Your personal strength has reached its current peak level. All that's left is to slowly analyze the game and accumulate a lot of laning experience. This is a waste of time and there is no need to rush."

Yuan Shen touched TheShy's head.

Worthy of being the future Martial Saint, TheShy is more talented in personal operations than him, and his reaction and hand speed are also faster.

Of course, with his system, there is no upper limit to his abilities.

Therefore, Yuan Shen does not envy TheShy's talent.

"Afterimage mechanism, understanding of soldier lines, attack interval between card defense towers, attack interval between card minions... I can teach you these skills, and you can learn them, but you still need to figure out your laning experience, and you also need to practice your hero proficiency. If you want to reach my level..."

Yuan Shen raised his head, raised his face, and began to calculate.

"One for one makes one, one for two makes two... It will probably take another three years of polishing."

"What should the nest do now?"

TheShy is convinced of Yuan Shen.

Dopa is also a big brother, and Rookie is also a big brother. He admires them equally.

But they are mid laners, and they play jungle and top lane. They are in different positions, so he is not convinced.

But Yuan Shen, the more he gets to know Yuan Shen, the more ignorant he feels.

In the entire S5, no one got to know Yuan Shen's bottom, and it's the same with him now.

Unfathomable and terrifying.

"Now? Let's practice team fighting."

Yuan Shen suddenly laughed.

He didn't know why TheShy was obsessed with Brawl, but he probably liked this training method.

"Playing in a group?"

TheShy's head was full of questions, and it wasn't until Yuan Shen sent an invitation to a big brawl that he finally responded.

"This!! Use up!!"

Seeing TheShy's excitement, Yuan Shen silently chose to quit.

"You fight on your own, and I'll take care of the rankings."

"Why?"

TheShy was confused again.

"Now I no longer need to practice team battles."

Yuan Shen touched the non-existent beard on his chin and smiled.

Then, under TheShy's admiring gaze, he turned around and left, starting to rack up points in the rankings...

NND, it's not a good thing that this apprentice's talent is too high. If he doesn't strengthen his strength, he will be surpassed one day.

Although a teacher does not have to be better than a disciple, if possible, Yuan Shen hopes that his progress speed can be consistent with or even surpass that of TheShy.

"A new hero has been released on the test server. Have you seen it?"

Jack and Xiao Ming, who bowed their heads to admit their mistakes and acted like good babies, burst out laughing as soon as they left the training room. They hooked up with Xiao Ming and came to Yuan Shen's side.

"ember?"

Yuan Shen raised his eyebrows.

"Holy shit, do you really know?"

Jack had a secret that he couldn't tell, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

"Jin is about to come out..."

Yuan Shen fell into memories.

Jhin is the 129th hero of League of Legends.

The 128th one is Illaoi, the sea beast priest.

The 127th one is Qian Jue, the Twins of Everhunting.

"I've seen this hero. It's different from the traditional basic attack ADC. It pays more attention to the connection between skills and basic attack. I feel it will be more suitable for me."

Jack was eager to give it a try. He liked this weird bottom lane combination the best.

He also played Syndra and Bomberman at Yuan Shen's suggestion.

IG's deep hero pool in the third line is also their biggest reliance on swinging BP.

"It's early. The national server will be launched at least after the Spring Festival. By then, it is expected that the two versions will be updated together."

Yuan Shen didn't care much. The Chinese version was always about a month slower than the Korean version.

Sometimes the two versions are updated at the same time, and the players in the Chinese server have not experienced the strength of the new hero, so they get the result that the new hero is weakened.

This is one of the reasons why professional players increasingly dislike doing Rank training in the Chinese server.

Of course, this does not include Yuan Shen.

It is less difficult to get points in the Chinese server, but the queue is faster, the delay is low, and the points are given the same as in the Korean server.

He loves the national uniform to death.

In the entire IG, Yuan Shen is the only one who still maintains the habit of getting high points in the national server.

Even Jack and Xiao Ming have moved to the Korean server to play Rank training.

"What do you mean, do you have any ideas for a new hero?"

Xiao Ming came over with Yuan Shen's water cup, ready to take out some information.

Everyone knows that Yuan Shen's understanding and foresight of the version are sometimes more reliable than analysts.

This kind of thing cannot be described, and it can only be considered as Yuan Shen's addition.

"It hasn't been released yet... But, Xiao Ming, you can get familiar with the hero Jyra. I think it will be very good to cooperate with Jhin when the time comes."

"By the way, I asked you to practice Frost Gun last time, just practice it by yourself, don't play Rank, if possible, TheShy and I can also practice laning with you."

Yuan Shen flipped through his notebook, some of the things on it, only he could understand.

After all, art that is too advanced is always abstract.

"Huh..."

Looking at the messy records on Yuan Shen's notebook, with a few black balls occasionally, Jack showed a disgusted expression.

"Your handwriting is too ugly, you will definitely not get any points in the college entrance examination."

Yuan Shen was stunned, and then lowered his head.

"I... I didn't go to high school."

Jack was stunned. They knew a little about Yuan Shen's family situation, but they didn't expect...

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

"Hey, it's all over."

Yuan Shen sighed, turned around and left with a cup of water, his figure lonely.

"You are too much, Jack..."

Xiao Ming turned to look at Jack and said dissatisfiedly.

"How can you say that."

"I..."

Jack was about to cry.

Damn, I really deserve to die! !

No, apologize, apologize now! !

Brother, wait for me! !

"What are you looking at?"

Outside the door, Rookie poked Yuan Shen's shoulder and whispered.

"Shh, I'm in KTV Jack."

Yuan Shen waved his hand, motioning Rookie to come over.

"KTV..."

Rookie looked puzzled, but still stuck his head out.

They are all top professional players, and they are professional in blocking vision.

"Nothing... It's inexplicable."

Rookie turned and left, leaving Yuan Shen alone to watch Jack and Xiao Ming's annoyed expressions and try to hold back his smile.

Compulsory education only goes up to junior high school, but what does this have to do with his graduate school graduation in his previous life?

Knowledge is something that can't be lost as long as the brain is still there.

...

The spring season is still going on.

There are three game weeks in the first stage.

Excluding the rest time, there are a total of nine days to play against five teams.

For IG, such a schedule is not complicated.

Although the opponents in Group A are not weak, only EDG and RNG can pose a threat to IG.

M3, EPA, were swept by IG 2-0.

The gap in strength is too great. These two teams can't even last 20 minutes against IG.

The first and second weeks of the league have ended one after another, and the standings show the true strength pyramid of each team.

Group B, QG won all the games.

Under the guidance of Gimgoon, top laner V has performed very well in recent games. He is on the same level as TheShy and 957, and is known as the three new stars of LPL.

Following closely behind is WE, which has completely reorganized and recruited new players.

Top laner Di, mid laner Xiye, bottom lane Mystic and Ben.

Ben was the player that IG asked for when they bought TheShy.

Although they lost TheShy, they have 957, and they have found a seedling like Khan among the young players, so they are not short of top laners.

At the same time, they exchanged for the support that needs the most reinforcement, so it is not a loss overall.

However, LGD, which won the runner-up in the spring and summer last year and the semi-finals of the world championship, did not perform well this season.

They can only rank third in Group A and lost the games against QG and WE.

The old strong team OMG seems very sluggish, and even teams like VG and HYG are struggling. The whole team is only supported by one stateless player.

This dark force that once amazed the world has lost its former glory and has completely become a league relegation team. The players and management have gradually begun to muddle through.

In Group A, IG won all the games.

Next is EDG, and then this season's dark horse team RNG.

If nothing unexpected happens, these three teams will shine in the playoffs.

In terms of record and paper strength alone, RNG is not inferior to any top team, but they have not yet found a suitable style of play for them.

"LPL dark horses frequently appear, traditional powerhouses decline"

"Hot on the field, top single Poppy analysis"

"Immortal Yasuo is popular all over the world, and the biggest villain is him! ”

"OMG's decline started with Yuan Shen and ended with Uzi"

E-sports news reports the situation of the LPL field in real time. Any hero that appears in the professional game will soon become popular in the passerby game.

Especially Yasuo, this elegant and flexible hero is already a popular hero in Rank. And because Yuan Shen developed the immortal Yasuo, the early strength and high fault tolerance after the equipment is formed, Yasuo became popular all of a sudden, and many people in major regions followed suit.

In every Rank game, someone comes in and says "X floor Yasuo, if you don't give it to me, I'll give it away."

The emergence of pre-selected positions can't limit their imagination at all.

Top Yasuo, mid Yasuo, bottom Yasuo, support Yasuo.

If they were not really afraid of being killed by wild monsters, it would not be uncommon to see five people pre-selecting Yasuo.

The entire Summoner's Rift was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Of course, this was only the happiness of Yasuo players.

Their happiness was built on the pain of the other nine people.

Many people went to Yuan Shen's live broadcast room and accused him of being the culprit.

A poem quickly spread.

"Anyway, he doesn't feel uncomfortable. He just needs to use E enough. He will use all three keys on the keyboard except Ctrl6. He will use E to go nowhere. He will use the dog tag zero and six..."

In addition to heroes and playing methods, what surprised LPL viewers the most was the importance LPL attached to the top lane.

Some people even ranked the top laners of LPL.

The old top laners are still here today, Ma Run broke Flandre.

There are also newcomers competing first, and Jin Gong 957.

In addition, Tong Yang, A Long, and Xi Yang are all on the rise in overall strength.

Even Zzitai is no longer a dispensable character who only existed in IG group photos last year, and has more opportunities to play.

Of course, no one has gone into the details of which of these top laners is the best.

The FMVP of the World Championship has only been selected since S4.

The first year was Mata, who played as a support.

There is only one top laner who won the FMVP, and that is Yuan Shen.

Before the next top laner who won the FMVP, there was only one top laner, and that was Yuan Shen.

Sometimes LPL fans are thinking, Yuan Shen got the FMVP and ran away, not giving others the opportunity to challenge him. Is this too hurtful to other top laners?

Of course, there are also King Kongs who said: It hurts Nima's head, pretending to be cool and running away, it's really exciting!

On January 31, IG will face EDG.

Compared with the German Cup, EDG's state is obviously stronger.

Flandre integrated quickly, and Mingkai and Meiko's jungle and support linkage is smoother.

The duel between Rookie and Pawn was tit-for-tat, and they did not give in.

The two teams fully demonstrated their top-notch strength.

In the first game, IG was given a warning by EDG.

Pawn suppressed Rookie as if he was on drugs, and Zz1tai and Meiko played perfectly, completely destroying IG's mid and bottom lanes.

In 30 minutes, the economic gap had reached 11,000.

Just when everyone thought that EDG had won the game with such a big advantage, Yuan Shen and TheShy stood up.

TheShy took Ekko and faced Flandre's Poppy, while Yuan Shen chose Graves.

Even if the team's economy collapsed, the two of them kept chasing their development.

TheShy was embroiled in a single-handed fight, and even found an opportunity to kill Flandre once.

Rookie's Tsar guarded the defense tower and kept clearing the line, delaying the development time.

When the stalemate lasted for 48 minutes, Ekko entered the field to freeze three people, and Rookie and Jack sacrificed their lives to output, giving Yuan Shen a chance to harvest.

A wave of two for four plus the big dragon pulled the economic gap to 6,000.

For the first time, the revised Graves showed his invincible super combat power in the late game.

However, in this situation, Deft stood up.

The Mouth has also been revised in the new season.

With Lulu's protection, Deft sprayed five people in one second, and walked like a ghost, directly melting IG's front row.

The blood volume that disappeared in an instant was very shocking.

In the first game, IG lost.

Yuan Shen's record of 11-7-9 could not save it.

The S5 season was the last season to rely on personal combat power to fight five people.

After S5, the strength of the team is more important.

However, IG adjusted their mentality quickly, and in the second game, they fully played their due strength.

Jack chose Draven, and under the protection of Yuan Shen and Rookie's roaming, he broke Deft's Mouth in the laning phase.

After two games, it was a tie of one to one.

In the final game, Yuan Shen also figured out EDG's way.

He chose Zzitai to play in the top lane, letting the top lane go, letting him and Flandre compete to see who is more oily.

As for the others, they let Jack take the pressure, and the mid and jungle support were crazy about Pawn.

IG's mid-jungle-support coordination rhythm made Pawn's life very uncomfortable.

His strength is comparable to Rookie, but no matter how strong a person is, he can't beat three alone.

In the last game, the two sides fought for 37 minutes, and finally ended the game when EDG started a group fight with Rookie, and Yuan Shen and Kindred used their ultimate to save the game.

After IG defeated EDG 2-1, it also meant that the first stage of the game was officially over.
