LOL: All-around champion, peak at debut

After arriving in Los Angeles, Lu Yun did not stop at all and went to the hotel as soon as possible.

He turned on the computer and started his journey to score points.

In addition to Lu Yun, others also quickly came to their rooms and did the same thing.

This is an agreement between all ANR players. Whoever scores the slowest will treat everyone to the first meal.

This is the simplest and purest happiness of professional players.

Although they have successfully arrived in Los Angeles, there are still two weeks of training time.

This period of time is the time for every ANR player to fight hard.

Regarding the training match, Lu Yun will naturally not rest on his laurels. He contacted ROX as soon as possible and extended an olive branch to ROX.

Although Lu Yun knew very well that he would most likely compete with ROX in the final stage of the S6 finals, he would never give up playing training matches with ROX, because he knew that the world competition is always a process of mutual learning.

Being afraid of being tested by ROX is a sign of guilty conscience. You have to be strong to make a good team. As long as you are strong enough and can adapt to changes in the game, you are not afraid of being tested.

You may even be eager to be tested by you, just like last year's game against SKT.

In the three-day training match, the two sides played very fiercely. In general, ANR still played a 73-to-1 championship strength with solid operational skills and team coordination ability.

Only today did they lose miserably because ROX chose a hero to fight against Juggernaut in the "jungle core mode".

This is Lycan.

Although Lycan's development is much worse than Juggernaut, ROX directly killed Juggernaut through chain control in a mid-term team fight, completely interrupting Juggernaut's development rhythm.

Obviously, this ultimate four-protect-one mode is not only applicable to Juggernaut, but also to many heroes.

Lycan is a good choice.

But training matches are always training matches, and the lineup system can only be tested in official matches.

September 30, 2016, Los Angeles E-sports Auditorium.

Although the tickets have been hyped up to several hundred dollars each, it still can't stop the enthusiasm of fans.

The venue was already full.

Riot intervened to stop scalpers from selling tickets, allowing more ordinary audiences to join this e-sports feast.

In the opening match, ROX and EDG were the first to appear.

Sitting in the audience, Lu Yun watched ten familiar players take the stage, as if he had returned to that era.

That era when League of Legends was the hottest, and all the audience pinned their hopes for LPL on the factory manager.

"It's really nostalgic."

Putting aside those dark memories, nostalgic Lu Yun still remembered that era.

League of Legends will not always be prosperous, and the future era will surely eliminate this once-great ship of the era, but for Lu Yun, who was born in the 90s, what he can't forget are these deep memories.

This time, the factory manager ranked second in the official TOP20 list, second only to Xiang Guo, who won the Grand Slam.

However, Peanut, who won the LCK Summer Championship, was ranked fifth, not as good as G2's jungler, Xiao Yang.

There is only one reason for this ranking. Peanut is participating in the World Championship for the first time. Both the audience and the judges think that his competition experience may become a weakness for him.

But Lu Yun is very clear about Peanut's personal strength. He has not become a loser in this era. Whether it is his personal mentality or his personal skills, there are four words written on him.

High-spirited!

The so-called competition experience is simply nonsense for him, just like ANR last year.

A genius is a genius after all. As long as he appears once, the whole world will remember him!

Remember his ID, remember everything about him!

Soon, the lineups of both sides have been selected.

EDG [Blue Side]

Top [Gnar], Jungle [Juggernaut], Mid [Gemstone], AD [Kalista], Support [Nunu].

Ban [Poppy], [Lulu], [Nidalee]

ROX [Red Side]

Top [Ekko], Jungle [Lycan], Mid [Aotaur], AD [Zyra], Support [Titan].

Ban [Morgana], [Syndra], [Viktor].

"EDG still likes to play like this. They still don't have the courage to go all out right from the start." Lu Yun, who was sitting on a chair in the audience, said this.

"ROX obviously studied this Juggernaut system and suppressed Morgana right from the start," Liu Qingsong said.

"EDG basically can't win this game. They rely too much on Juggernaut, and ROX has five controllers. Juggernaut can't rush in even if he has a gem."Lu Yun said.

"Just rush up and control them to death. Damn it, that's how they broke me." Xiang Guo said.

Lu Yun suddenly remembered something: "If the sword master is replaced by Olaf, ROX will be difficult to beat. Why didn't I think of it before?"

"The person in charge is confused. "Liu Qingsong responded.

The result of the game was as Lu Yun said. EDG, who didn't dare to give it a try right away, was a little confused by ROX's multiple control system designed specifically to deal with Juggernaut.

Although Zhazi's Juggernaut developed in the early stage and was 1 level ahead of Lycan in the early stage of the game, ROX chose to avoid fighting in the early stage and let Lycan suck blood in the middle lane.

Although Lycan didn't reach level 6 until 7 minutes, two minutes behind Juggernaut who reached level 6 in 5 minutes, Peanut, who reached level 6, let Jella, who had stable line rights in the bottom lane, go to the middle lane to set the line, while he controlled Lycan to take Gnar.

Successfully took Gnar's first blood.

Same as the original world In this way, Korol once again brought pressure to the entire team.

Seeing that the top laner's awareness of gank defense was so weak, Peanut stopped playing against Juggernaut and went to the top lane to withdraw money as soon as his ultimate was ready.

As the game went on, although the werewolf was still behind in level, his economy gradually surpassed Juggernaut. In the second wave of dragon group, he seized the opportunity to control Juggernaut to death in one breath, thus laying the foundation for victory.

When watching the EDG base explode, the LPL fans who came from afar were completely silent.

I could only stare at the screen blankly, not knowing how to describe the loss in my heart.

[You gave us a big one right away]

[Are you worthy of us? RNM, return the money]

[ You're still playing, Korol]

[Can this top laner be changed?]

[It would be great if Brother Lu had multiple shadow clones. Lend one to EDG, and EDG will definitely win]

[Damn, in the end, we can only rely on Brother Lu]

[Can't you just take Ekko? You have to take Gnar, you just like Gnar so much]

The barrage of comments are all criticizing Korol.

Reasonable.

Korol in this era is no longer competent for the top lane position. He dies when he is caught.

The most important thing is that he is always caught at the time when he shouldn't be caught.

In the S6 era, the top laner can accept death, and the pressure of snowball is only half of last year, or even less than half. To.

It doesn't mean that if the top laner dies, the top lane will definitely explode. That's Fiora vs. Crocodile, not Ekko vs. Gnar.

For example, when the mid laner Juggernaut is clearing minions in the middle lane, the top laner can play more aggressively and force the opponent's jungler to show up.

But Korol's first wave of death was when Juggernaut went home.

This is very fatal!

Because this kind of death is meaningless.

Countless viewers began to miss the top lane god last year. Why is the gap so big?

"In fact, Gnar can't be blamed entirely. Even if they continue to play, their lineup can't handle Ekko's side lane. I said a long time ago that Ekko who doesn't know how to top lane will definitely suffer a big loss, and now it has come true." Lu Yun said.

"It's still because the hero pool is not deep enough." Xiang Guo said.
