after retirement

NE has undergone a year of adjustments, and the lineup has been initially formed in S7. The fledgling teenagers have adapted to the field, and the long-established veterans have also gotten along better with the team. This year NE entered the World Championship, taking the No. The identity of the seed.

The No. [-] seed team is Shan Nanchuan's JCG.

After entering the World Championship, NE and JCG were divided into different groups in the group stage. In the early stage, the two teams did not meet each other, so a training match was arranged.

At that time, Shan Nanchuan was no longer the starting player of JCG. The rookie top laner that their team discovered could be called the golden collar among the blue-collar top laners. They AD can C.

Although the JCG team started with Shan Nanchuan as the top laner at C, they also adjusted their strategy in this bot lane season and found a reliable bot lane combination. A team always needs to develop, and the core will never be just a certain one. Point, every position of JCG is strong now.

At this time, Shan Nanchuan was already 24 years old. He could clearly feel the decline of his state. He was unable to play certain heroes, and his style of play became conservative. However, this state made him extremely irritable, and even affected This is why the blue-collar top laner can become the starter.

However, Shan Nanchuan's state was still very good when he met Lu Wen, because they were too familiar with each other, and both of them were very familiar with each other. The two didn't communicate at all.

Moreover, when the two of them are facing each other, they will never take a bastard like Dashu Titan. Even the coach will let them take the fighter type top laner considering that the opponent is Shan Nanchuan or Lu Wen, so that they can play well on the top lane. Just be happy.

This point has also been ridiculed by many commentators, saying that when the two of them are in line, they are out of touch with this version. A scene that never cuts to the top road game, and a scene that stays on the top road and puts Tianxiu on the game, everyone is still more happy to watch Tianxiu's game.

When the two teams meet in the regular season, it must be Shan Nanchuan who will play. Apart from Shan Nanchuan's own wishes, it is also because the blue-collar top laner is too timid to match up with Lu Wen, and he is too cowardly to be beaten. If you can't drop or get single-killed, you can't be called Beng, but there are too many knives, and the equipment in the later stage can't hold the front row.

Now it's the World Championship, and during the training match, Nanchuan can't be played every game, and even blue-collar top laners are more likely to play.

There is no way, their team is indeed a blue-collar top laner who is more suitable for them, and an opponent like Lu Wen, a blue-collar top laner will have to face one day.

Lu Wen was actually a little disappointed that he met Shan Nanchuan too few times in training matches, but he also understood that Shan Nanchuan was really old in the e-sports industry.

Although there are many stories of veterans who have regained their achievements in the arena, they are just a few. Obviously, Shan Nanchuan is not in this ranks. Shan Nanchuan's personal style is obvious from the beginning. Resisting stress is psychologically difficult to overcome.

One day after playing a training match with JCG, Lu Wen suddenly felt a little lost. He looked at the post-match settlement interface and felt empty in his heart. He couldn't tell whether it was because he didn't perform well tonight or because Shan Nanchuan didn't play tonight. training match.

Lu Wen suddenly wanted to make a call to Shan Nanchuan, but calling now would only be considered as a mockery, he held the phone in his hand for a long time, and finally chose to give up.

S7 was held in China, and the group stage was held in Wuhan. A few days before the start of the competition, several teams packed their bags and went to the hotel in Wuhan in advance.

The organizer has prepared a training room for each team. The training rooms in the same competition area are next to each other. When Lu Wen went to the training room on the first day, he met Shan Nanchuan walking towards him.

It's not that the two haven't met each other before, and they have to shake hands after the regular season. It's usually nothing, but now Lu Wen's mood is very strange. He looks away from Shan Nanchuan, and doesn't look at Shan Nanchuan at all. directly into the training room.

And his teammates greeted the JCG people, and then followed Lu Wen into the training room. Although the two teams usually have no other connection other than the game, they are not enemies, and they often cooperate with each other during qualifying. , so it's perfectly normal to say hello when encountering someone. It's even more abnormal for Lu Wen to go straight into the training room without even looking at him.

Lu Wen's teammates looked at each other, everyone nodded in understanding, Lu Wen and Shan Nanchuan really had a grudge against each other!

Coming to Wuhan also means that the time for the group stage is approaching, and the atmosphere in the team has also become tense. Everyone began to care about the opponents in the World Championship and prepare for the upcoming World Championship. At this time, the manager even called Lu Wentan Talked again.

Manager: "Let's put aside personal grievances first, and concentrate on preparing for the game first."

Lu Wen: "Oh."

While responding verbally, he was thinking about some personal grievances, did he follow Shan Nanchuan?This doesn't affect the game state either.

At the beginning of the group stage, both teams have a group of LCK teams in their groups. Unfortunately, NE's side is KG, last year's champion team, and the only team that won three championships in the S competition.

Last year, KG beat JCG in the World Championship and sent Shan Nanchuan home.

Lu Wen looked at the schedule of the group stage and counted the time of the match against KG. Now he would not say that he would definitely beat KG, but in his heart, he hoped to rub KG on the ground.

Not only because KG is the champion team, but also because KG won JCG last year, he won't say it, but he wants revenge.

On the day of the match against KG, Shan Nanchuan sat in the backstage and watched the entire match between KG and NE. He set aside half an hour during the NE match to watch the match. He told people that he wanted to learn how KG played. He also knew that he wanted to see Lu Wen's current growth.

At the beginning of the match against KG, everyone seemed to be developing peacefully, but Lu Wen, the top laner, seemed unable to sit still, and began to take the initiative to play singles with the opponent.

"Too radical." Shan Nanchuan thought, "Lu Wen is too radical, easy to be arrested."

But what Lu Wen waited for was not that he was caught, but that his own jungler was also there when the opposing jungler came, 2v2 on the top lane, NE won completely.

Only then did Shan Nanchuan realize that he was paying too much attention to Lu Wen, but this was not Lu Wen's game alone, it was a team game.

Until here, he focused more on the overall situation, paying attention to the movements of other people, the resistance of the bottom lane, the wandering of the middle lane, the support of the top lane, and the invasion of the jungle. The NE.

In this version where everyone plays development and waits for the ADC to develop, NE's rhythm is obviously much faster than other teams. As soon as Lu Wen got the advantage on the top road, he immediately cooperated with the jungler to cooperate with the jungler to four packs and two towers in the bottom road, and then went big. Long Xiaolong, anyway, how could he get the advantage? As soon as the snowball rolled, the advantages and disadvantages became bigger and bigger. In the end, NE ended the game with a perfect team fight and played a beautiful game.

"Does it look good?" the coach asked Shan Nanchuan at the moment watching the game with Shan Nanchuan in the background.

"It's good looking." Shan Nanchuan had to admit this. This game doesn't need to be described as how well it was played. Even in the eyes of players who don't understand the game, it is a wonderful and beautiful game.

"NE is strong this season," the coach said.

Shan Nanchuan leaned on the gaming chair and smiled: "It's really strong."

Coach: "We will also play LCK in a few days."

Shan Nanchuan: "TH."

Coach: "Revenge."

Shan Nanchuan laughed: "Yes, revenge.

In the group stage, NE overwhelmed KG to qualify with the first score in the group, while JCG's game has just begun.

This year TH has re-adjusted the lineup, led by experienced veterans. During the game, every step is steady and steady, playing the game with the most stable style of play that is most suitable for this season.

This style of play is very suitable for this version. If you can't find a breakthrough, you can only be slowly dragged to death by the opponent.

In the first game against TH, the blue-collar top laner on JCG wanted to beat TH with the same steady style of play, but under the same style of play, it is obvious that TH is better, and TH also has a middle field player who is more suitable for this style of play , the first time they met, JCG lost to TH and lost.

After the defeat, JCG began to re-discuss tactics. If it was said that LCK was an unbridgeable gap before, then NE has told them that even KG can be defeated, so TH should not be their obstacle.

It was the second time they met TH in the group stage, and JCG played Shan Nanchuan after the adjusted tactics.

This is also Shan Nanchuan's own idea. He thinks TH's lineup this year, he can play, and the coaching staff also thinks that since TH's operation is so stable that there is almost no breakthrough, then let someone who can break this operation enter. The person is Shan Nanchuan.

In this game, the breakthrough point is the top lane. After watching NE's game, they decided to copy NE's style of play. Shan Nanchuan played an advantage in the top lane, then supported the middle and bottom lanes, and then blossomed in all lanes. Before TH established an early advantage, they played TH crashed.

This style of play is indeed very effective. As a team, TH is not top-notch, but the team has a good teamwork. When teammates are defeated, it is difficult to readjust. All teams are trapped in self-protection. In the second encounter, JCG defeated TH and won.

Up to now, it has been confirmed that both NE and JCG will qualify for the group stage. NE is first in the group stage, and JCG is second in the group stage. In this way, the two teams are likely to meet in the quarterfinals, so everyone began to speculate: the quarterfinals civil war, copy S3?
