Chapter 416 Foreign aid last month
In the magical city of Pudong, where the LPL league is held - the World Expo Stage in the World Expo Park.
"Welcome back, everyone. This is the match scene on the third day of the first week of the 2014 lpl League of Legends Professional League Summer Split. Hello everyone, I am the on-site commentator Miller."
"Hello everyone, I am the commentator Changmao."
"Hello everyone, I am today's commentator Xiaomi."
A new face appeared on the commentary desk today, that is the commentator from Wanwan, Changmao. This is the new commentator officially introduced from Wanwan by the LPL tournament this season.
The Wanwan league is limited by its market size and player strength, so it is not particularly powerful.
But as pioneers in the field of e-sports, they have a lot to learn from LPL in terms of event organization, operations, logistics and promotion.
For example, in terms of Wanwan's event commentary, both professionalism and entertainment have its own unique features. In addition, the language is similar, so the lpl commentary team made an attempt to introduce Wanwan's commentary.
"After a fierce battle that lasted for thirty-five minutes in the last game, our relatively new team EDG defeated their old enemy ME team 2-0 and won their first victory of the season."
"EDG scored all three points at 2-0, which also means that EDG is currently at the top of the league, just like LG.G and Royal Family."
Miller made a little joke, touched his chin at the same time, and laughed.
"What do you two think about the next bo2 game?"
Changmao didn't hesitate at all and gave his answer decisively.
"Then you must support LG.S. After all, LG.S is the world champion, and this time in the All-Star Game, they defeated all the powerful players with a crushing advantage and won the All-Star Game.
, facing such a LG.S team, I don’t think IG has any chance.”
Xiaomi is a little confused. Of course, she doesn’t think IG’s chances are great, but she thinks it’s not a good idea if several commentators are in the same camp.
"To be honest, I don't know how IG can beat LG.S. Let's not talk about the LG.S team, just talk about IG itself. This offseason, IG lost its most important player - their top laner.
pdd player, his lineup is not neat, but he is still facing LG.S, this..."
Xiaomi didn't say any more, but her meaning was self-evident.
Seeing that both commentators chose to trust LG.S, Miller, who grew up with lpl, couldn't help but sigh. This is completely a witness to the replacement of old and new lpl.
"Oh, yes, it is indeed difficult for IG to face LG.S now. It depends on whether the top laner they introduced during the offseason can have a chemical reaction with their own lineup. Then there may be a chance."
"I hope their strongest person is already in the formation."
Miller gave his blessing.
"It's really difficult. You have to know that their new top laner is a Korean player. It's probably difficult for their top laner to communicate smoothly with their team. It's really difficult to develop a fighting spirit.
"
During this transfer period, in addition to many Chinese players leaving for other divisions to become midfielders, some teams in the lpl division also tried to introduce some potential foreign aid players into the lpl or lspl.
This is partly because the overall game plan of LPL is relatively large and accommodates more players than OGN. Secondly, because LPL has entered the fast lane of development, the wages are relatively generous, which is also very attractive to players from other regions.
Of course, there are also some strong players from other regions who want to come to the lpl, the first region, to try their luck and prove themselves.
"Although the Korean teams have lost to our LPL teams in the past two years, the strength of their top professional players is still very good. Bringing them in will help form a catfish effect and promote the development of the strength of local players in our division."
"Speaking of it, if all the top players could come to the LPL, wouldn't the LPL be almost like the NBA? It wouldn't just be the first league, but the Super League."
Of course, there was also some discussion of national sentiments, so Miller and Changmao also gave some explanations on the issue of foreign aid.
The three commentators had another discussion about the two teams and foreign aid issues, and finally ended the discussion until the director reminded them to start BP.
"Okay, without further ado, let's take a look at the BP of both parties."
As soon as the screen changed, the large screen switched to the ban selection interface.
The LG.S team still maintains the club's tradition of competing to win, and this priority of selecting sides falls in the hands of IG.
Since there are many OP heroes in this version, such as Kassadin, Weapon Master, and Yasuo, these heroes are all non-ban must-selects.
Therefore, IG did not choose the red side but the blue side. The blue side of the IG team banned first.
The first ban of the LG.G team was to remove the reserved ban position against LG.S - Jayce. Otherwise, they would not take this hero. Once LG.S takes it, their opponents will face torture.
It can be said that the two teams of LG Club have made the hero Jayce have a much higher status in the world.
IG was not willing to take such a risk and decisively banned this hero.
The red side's LG.S ban position is relatively fixed, and they accordingly banned Kassadin, a powerful hero in this version.
As long as Kassadin is developed, he will be a hero who can ignore everything and change his destiny. It is normal to forcefully close the gap, so LG.S does not want to put this hero on the opponent.
Judging from the training matches and ranks of various teams, this version of Kassadin is too strong, and IG will definitely grab it when it is released.
Next, the ban selection of both sides was relatively smooth. The IG team then banned Bomberman and Blind Sin.
LG.S, on the other hand, banned Yasuo and Lulu, two powerful heroes in the version.
"It feels like from these ban selection strategies, we can roughly see the tactical styles of both sides."
Miller thought about it for a while and probably got a taste of it.
"Indeed, judging from LG.S's ban position, LG.S is not prepared to delay the late game with IG, so it has banned many late-game heroes."
"This is also in line with the traditional style of LG.S. If you force others to fight, the other party will often follow LG.S's rhythm and start fighting unconsciously."
Xiaocang also had the same idea as Miller.
Sure enough, the next lineup selection confirmed the commentator's idea.
After two rounds of testing, the lineups of both sides were finally selected.
The IG team is located on the blue side. For their new Korean aid, the top laner chose the hero Dragon Girl, the jungler was Prince, the mid laner Zitai chose Clockwork, and the bottom lane chose the hero Braum for Rat.
This version officially weakened Braum in a wave, so LG.S also tried to release Braum.
The lineup of the red side LG.S is Crocodile in the top lane and Mantis in the jungle. In the mid lane, there is a new choice, which is a hero that has never appeared before, Xerath.
