"EDG won the coin guessing session before the game and had the right to choose sides in three games: 1, 3, and 5. They chose the blue side for themselves in the first game!"

VG player seats.

Gu Xing leaned back in his chair with a relaxed expression and joked, "Brother Wen He is not good enough. He can't even win a coin bet?"

Before the finals, in all playoffs, the top-ranked teams in the regular season have priority in selecting sides.

But when the winners of their respective half-districts come together for the final battle, it is difficult to choose sides by comparing regular season rankings.

For example, EDG and VG are both first in the group, and their records are 15 wins and 1 loss, with no obvious advantages or disadvantages!

According to the rules, the final uses a football kick-off method where the referee tosses a coin. Both sides of the game send people to select the front and back of the coin. The team that guesses correctly has the priority to choose the side of wave 5.

It turned out that VG team leader Jin Wenhyuk guessed wrong.

"It's okay for Sister Li," Jin Wenhe tried to defend himself after hearing Gu Xing's words, "I have no experience, too tempting, too private, EDG has played in countless finals, and they are much better at guessing coins than me.

.”

Allen Chu glanced at him with a smile, "How can you be so tough? I wonder why I guess it's not 50-50?"

Hongmi noticed Xiao Duan sitting at the edge of the contestants' bench and noticed that he was nervous, so he went over to express some comfort.

"Brother Duan, are you okay?" Gu Xing turned his head and looked at Duan Deliang.

"...It's too loud outside and it's not comfortable to wear headphones." Xiao Duan pointed to his ears.

It is not customary to set up soundproof rooms for LPL finals.

Players can only wear sound-isolating headphones as they do during the regular season.

But this is not the Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center. The number of spectators in the stadium is dozens of times greater, and the momentum created is not at the same level!

No matter how expensive the sound-isolating headphones are, they cannot completely isolate the outside sound.

Xiao Duan asked the referee to turn up the volume in his game, but the noise from the stands continued to reach his ears!

This made Duan Deliang very uncomfortable.

Due to the white noise in the headphones, it was impossible for him to hear clearly what the audience in the stands was shouting.

But the volume can still be easily distinguished, and Xiao Duan will make me feel flustered every time I hear it.

Gu Xing was very happy.

As he listened to the commotion coming from the stands, his heart couldn't stop beating faster, his breathing became fast and powerful, and his breath even burned a bit as it left through his nose.

Gu Xing wished that the regular season could also be played in a venue of this level. The secretion of adrenaline made him feel that his reaction speed was much faster, and his concentration also soared!

However, he could understand Xiao Duan's mentality.

"Brother Duan, do this." Gu Xing came up with an idea, "Move the chair two steps forward and try to let the monitor occupy the entire field of view..."

"You can feel a little more relaxed if you can't see the audience."

Since the stage was in the middle of the venue, and the player seats were surrounded by stands, Gu Xing could see the slogans and light boards hung by the supporters of the two clubs, as well as the swaying glow sticks if he shifted his gaze slightly.

If you are too nervous and look at the audience's reaction, you will inevitably feel panicked.

Duan Deliang did as he was told, dragging the pulley of the gaming chair so that the armrests, chair back and tabletop would firmly trap him.

The tight space gave him enough sense of security, and he was immersed in the game screen for a while, without any distractions, and finally relaxed.

"Why don't you quickly say thank you, Brother Xing?" Brother Long was still making jokes.

Hongmi knocked on his forehead and arranged for Zhu Xiaolong to quickly ban the hero.

While they were chatting, EDG had already blocked Leopard Girl.

The factory director's Nidalee has a very high winning rate, even reaching 90%!

But that doesn't mean he's very good at this hero.

Clearlove's Leopard Girl doesn't have that flavor. She just plays like a normal map-controlling jungler, with an offensive bias.

On the contrary, Gu Xing Nidalee has been strong from the regular season to the playoffs, and she also tortured a hot pot during the period, which can be said to be famous!

EDG currently doesn't plan to give the factory director a chance to steal Leopard Girl, so they might as well ban her to avoid being picked by Gu Xing again.

"VG's first ban slot is given to Rock Bird, and Sout's hero pool must be blocked!"

Entering the second half of the Summer Split, professional teams gradually developed the Rock Bird style of play.

This earth mage from Shurima is favored in the game because of her unique mechanics.

There is nothing wrong with the proficiency of young boy Sout's Rock Bird, which can even be said to be at the top level in the LPL region.

Hongmi knew that Mr. Hou couldn't train well, so he had to take on this position.

"EDG accidentally banned the ban, trying to cut off the connection between VG's top laner and other positions." Miller looked at so far and felt that BP was quite satisfactory. "This idea is quite similar to RNG. If nothing else, the last ban position will be given to Hou. My ice girl!"

This is what RNG does.

Since the sudden rise of VG, teams in the league have taken it as a research object.

The BP strategies made are also very similar.

That is the fixed ban of Shen and Ice Girl, plus a flexible ban position to deal with emergencies!

EDG head coach Quickstar plans to copy RNG's ideas.

As far as the overall coaching level of the current LPL league is concerned, if it can be copied instead of blindly modified, it is already above the average level.

Fast Star itself is not very capable of innovating.

He believes that the RNG coaching staff’s ideas coincide with his own.

Hongmi also roughly guessed EDG's BP routine and began to think about counterattack strategies.

"Ban Bronn," he said to the players. "In the first game, we will directly reveal our trump card and catch the opponent off guard first!"

The Marquis took a sip of ice water before turning the microphone back to his mouth, "Will this trick work?"

Hongmi seemed very confident, "Don't worry, this EDG is very tender and can't escape my plan!"

In the first two years, the factory director had Curly Hair or Fat General beside him who could cooperate with him in his command.

Now the team has either young players like Meiko and Sout, or silent and boring players like Deft.

The factory director himself has to be responsible for leading the entire team, and it is inevitable that he will be physically and mentally exhausted.

Hongmi figured out the opponent's weakness and planned to use a combination of punches at the beginning!

Punch first, then think about the next step while punching.

"As expected, EDG finally blocked Ice Girl, and VG banned the card!" Seeing this scene, Wawa analyzed it incidentally, "They also banned Rock Bird before... They obviously don't want the younger students to get the ability to radiate quickly.

A wide role!”

"After all, except Ice Girl, no other characters in the hero pool of the Marquis have any early and mid-term roaming abilities. With Ice Girl being banned, he can only choose to tie his junior in the middle!"

Quick Star discussed with the team members for a while.

In the end, the factory director nodded and locked Reksai.

It was just a matter of simply choosing a hero, but there was a loud noise from the stands!

In the eyes of EDG supporters, Clearlove's Rek'Sai is the absolute signature!

"The last time the two sides met in the regular season, Virtue used Leopard Girl to punish the factory director's excavator," Watanabe was very curious, "But this time Nidalee is blocked, what will Xiao Gu do to deal with it?"

Gu Xing is not in a hurry to choose heroes in the first two hands.

At Hongmi's request, he helped lock down the Trolls and determine a top laner and auxiliary swing position for the team.

Brother Long snatched away the vampire.

As Wawa said, there are no roaming characters in the middle now.

Among the remaining mage-type heroes, vampires deserve to be in the first echelon!

Even in the 6.15 version used in the playoffs, the vampire's basic movement speed was cut by 5 points, and the cooldown of W [Blood Red Pool] was increased by two seconds at all levels.

However, this knife did not cut into the main artery, so it was harmless and still usable.

What's more, Mr. Hou's proficiency is guaranteed, so he is the right choice.

"EDG locks in the double C combination of Han Bing and Syndra!"

Miller explained eloquently, "Needless to say about Ice, the intensity is very high now, and Syndra's appearance rate in the playoff version is also rising!"

"Mainly because of the setting of the first-blood tower mechanism, which speeds up the field and emphasizes the intensity of the laning phase... Syndra perfectly meets the needs of the professional field!"

In recent versions, Syndra's own strength has not been enhanced.

The reason for the increase in appearance rate is the changes in the game environment caused by the version.

Compared with other mages, Syndra's combat ability in the early and mid-term is really ridiculously strong, and she can kill with half health at every turn, making her opponents very difficult to guard against!

Hongmi stood behind Gu Xing and asked his jungler, "Xiao Gu, which one do you think is better, blind monk or centaur?"

Hecarim had been strong all summer, but he still couldn't escape the designer's 40-meter sword.

In version 6.15, the basic attack power of centaurs has been reduced by 3 points, and the damage of Q [Rampage] has been reduced by 10 points at all levels!
