During the offseason, the situation is changing, and the hot spots that are constantly emerging are rising one after another.But when the holiday is over and the game officially starts, everyone's attention will return to the game itself.

After all, championship competition is the eternal theme in e-sports.

The match between SP and XYZ received the most attention and attention among all the events in the first week.

The most important thing to watch is naturally Zuo Zhengyi's return to the arena. The e-sports circle has been looking forward to the stars and the moon all day long, and it can be regarded as looking forward to him again.The enthusiasm before the game was too high, and the tickets for the game were sold at sky-high prices.

Another important thing to watch is the effectiveness of SP's in-team running-in. There are endless tactical posts on the forum to help them advise, and there are all kinds of playstyles.But no one expected that SP would embark on such an extreme path.

From February 2th to 14th, SP launched emergency training.Time is short, the first priority is to practice coordination and play training games.

The most difficult of the five players was Zuo Zhengyi.

Coach Cheng's extreme offensive thinking is theoretically feasible, but in practice it seems like a joke.Their training match was extremely unsatisfactory. The game was full of expected and unexpected problems, and the scene was once so chaotic that even the high-scoring game of passers-by was not as good as it was.

As the conductor, Zuo Zhengyi often leads to a knot in his thinking, almost aphasia.

If Cheng Suinian's status and prestige in SP were not high enough, he would have been overwhelmed by opposition.

But the training is not without effect.

They played poorly mainly because of low proficiency.This style of play is too fast-paced, prone to chaos, chaos and mistakes, but the tactical error tolerance rate is very low, so the winning rate cannot be improved.

But the good thing is that the five players checked each other quite efficiently and had a preliminary understanding of each other's strengths, weaknesses and operating habits.

On the afternoon of the 18th, the whole team took the bus to the competition venue.

Zuo Zhengyi leaned on his seat and dozed off, playing the scene of the last training match in a loop in his mind.

Although he is not a coach, he also pays great attention to the performance of his teammates.

Zuo Zhengyi is most familiar with Ji Jue. He found that the current Ji Jue has made great progress compared with the time of Xiezi, with stronger operation and better consciousness.

On the one hand, this is because Ji Jue's actual combat experience is richer than before. On the other hand, after conquering the big scene of the World Championship, Ji Jue's mentality has become more calm and calm, which is reflected in the operation, and he is more bold and careful.

Feng Can is the same, this is an ADC who was once known as a "nervous knife". He is super god when he is god, and super ghost when he is ghost. It is more difficult to control.

But in fact, since he won the SP championship and Cheng Su Nian retired, Feng Can has become much more stable than before.This is due to the lack of personnel turnover in SP in the past two years, and he is under too much pressure.

Compared with other ADCs horizontally, Feng Can can already be said to have no shortcomings.In the past few days, his performance in the training games has also been relatively stable. Apart from the rough running-in, there are no major personal problems.

Zhao Jing is a support with a very good overall level.His characteristic is that he is not too outstanding, and he is not easy to make mistakes. He is the most obedient among all the players in the team, and his ability to maintain AD is quite strong.But he is not good at creating opportunities for AD, he is relatively passive and needs to be taken away.

This is one of the reasons why SP's performance last season was not as good as expected. At that time, the jungler was not good, the support was not able to actively roam and cooperate, and the overall rhythm was not active.

Zuo Zhengyi was most surprised by top laner Lamp and Ding Haichao.

This "traffic light" surprised everyone in the first training match, and used his signature hero Fei Jing, a crispy output fighter with a low EPL appearance rate, to show off.

Zuo Zhengyi is not familiar with Fei Jing. He used to play mid laners most of the time, and his top lane teammates only played meat.

Looking at the entire EPL, Fei Jing's only few appearances were also used in the jungle position.

Ding Haichao's technique is very sharp, but his awareness of the overall situation is very poor.He was the most disobedient person in the team. He was trained by the coach eleven times in ten training games. Even Ji Jue and Feng Can were set off by him as "three good students".

When asked why he didn't follow orders, he stammered, "My brain listens, but my hands don't."

"..."

I don't know if it's true or not.

Zuo Zhengyi always wanted to beat him up, but seeing that he was doing well, he thought it was okay and could be forgiven.

As the team's bus drove smoothly, Zuo Zhengyi stood up slightly from the backrest and took off his earphones.

He and Ji Jue sat next to each other, while Cheng Sunian in the front row was discussing today's BP plan with assistant coach Ding Taiping.

——They want to implement the original plan in the first game and play extreme offense. If the effect is not satisfactory, they will consider whether to change the plan in the second game.

The coaches are chatting, and the players are chatting too.

Today is the first time in Lamp's life to play a professional game. He is very nervous, especially after dyeing the "traffic light" on his head back to black, he seems to have lost his soul, and his energy is quite low.

Zuo Zhengyi glanced at him and kindly comforted him: "Don't be too nervous, just play the same as the training match."

Feng Can also said: "That's right, anyway, End is to blame for the loss, and everyone on the Internet is staring at him."

Zuo Zhengyi: "..."

Although it was the truth, when it was said from the mouth of his teammates, his fist was hardened.

Lamp asked with a sad face, "Aren't you all nervous when you went to the court for the first time?"

"Are you okay?" Zuo Zhengyi recalled his experience in WSND back then, and said forcefully, "At that time, I was more excited than nervous. Do you know what Zhuge came out of the mountain? My era has begun."

"..."

Lamp stared blankly at Zuo Zhengyi, momentarily overwhelmed by his pretentiousness.

Feng Can curled his lips: "I don't even remember how I felt when I played for the first time. I played in UG in the first year. It was a mess. It's all black history."

Zhao Jing said: "I was also very nervous for the first time, but I came off the bench, and it's over for me."

This is a joke.

Ji Jue said: "I wasn't nervous, and I had a fight with my teammates. They isolated me. In fact, I think playing games is no different from going to work. Just do what you should do."

"Yes." Zuo Zhengyi immediately answered, "For example, don't touch the blue buff in the top lane, it's mine."

Everyone laughed, and the laughter continued until the game started.

Following the schedule of the first half of the season, today is the third game of the SP Champions Cup group stage.

This year, the SP draw is divided into Group B, and the opponents in the same group are UG, FYG, XYZ, SFIVE and Lion.

The group stage is a single round-robin, BO3 competition system, and only the top two teams in the final points can advance.

Among these five opponents, Lion is the most difficult to play, followed by XYZ. If SP wants to qualify steadily, it has to defeat both teams.

In other words, it is best not to lose tonight, otherwise SP's Champions League situation will be greatly disadvantaged.

In the backstage lounge, Coach Cheng gave a routine speech before the game.

While listening, Zuo Zhengyi took the keyboard out of his backpack and wiped it briefly.

The game started on time at 18:[-], and the two teams took the stage ahead of schedule.

Several cameras were aimed at the contestants' aisle. As soon as Zuo Zhengyi appeared, there was a burst of enthusiastic flag-waving cheers from the audience.

Someone called "End" loudly, and Zuo Zhengyi waved his hand like a leader in a military parade, causing the audience and commentator to laugh together.

"End seems to be in a good mood."

"For sure, the whole world is waiting to see his comeback show today, and he himself already has itchy hands."

"It is said that SP's recent training match is still only closed within the team and does not invite other teams. I am very curious about what tactics they will come up with today."

"The new version has just been updated, and there are a lot of new routines recently. Everyone is groping for the answer to the version, and SP probably has their own understanding. I think they have such a luxurious lineup now, with so many carry points, their playstyle should not be too conservative. "

"XYZ is not a conservative team either. Tonight's game may be full of sparks and blood will flow like rivers."

The commentary talked here, and the live broadcast camera swept across the players' seats. Both teams have adjusted their equipment and are ready to start BAN & PICK.

In the first game, SP is on the blue side, BAN first and then choose.

Their BP idea is very clear. If they want to play fast break in the early stage, they only need to ban meat. For example, the hard supporter who is fleshy and can keep C strong like the Black Demon must be banned.

The three bans in SP's opening hand were all given to this type of hero. The coach of XYZ saw their intentions at a glance, but he was not sure if it was a cover-up, so he was a little hesitant.

The BP link can reflect the tactical value of the players. For example, facing Zuo Zhengyi at this time, although XYZ feels that the opponent does not look like he will choose Jialan, he still has to ban Jialan, just in case.

This made XYZ's BP somewhat passive, and the second BAN hesitated again, and finally gave it to Margaret.

In the third hand, he chose to replace BAN, and he chose Red Flame King, Feng Can's signature shooter hero. If SP wants to play the early stage, it is a key point.

XYZ made the right choice.

But it was all within SP's expectation. They almost didn't even think about it. They followed up with Feijing and Starscream, damage-type fighters and control-type junglers.

XYZ played Elephant and Bunnyman, a pressure-resistant top laner and anti-control jungler.

——Although Elephant is strong enough to resist pressure, it is basically impossible to get the lane right when facing Feijing. XYZ's Ueno area is relatively dangerous.

BP is like playing cards, a game of suppressing each other back and forth.

This has led to XYZ's urgent need to make a comeback in the selection of mid laners and supports, and can't be inferior to all three tiers.

They stared wide-eyed at SP's third choice, guessing that SP would go out first.

Sure enough, SP locked on Deer Girl.

It's hard to say whether the deer girl is good or bad against the Red Flame King, the key depends on how to choose the support.

In this case, the most ideal support for SP is the Maid, but the second round of bans has already begun, and XYZ doesn't give it a chance, and directly bans the Maid. SP settled for the next best thing and chose White Shark.

It is also an offensive support, but the white shark does not have the accurate hooking skills of the maid, and the big move mainly focuses on group dizziness.Although it is an AOE group control, this skill is easier to hide, and it is often empty, which is a test of the timing and position of casting.

SP chose White Shark, and the tactical intentions have been fully exposed.

—they don't have a front row.

But so far XYZ is still vigilant, suspecting that SP's last move may choose a Fatan hero for Zuo Zhengyi to make up for the team's shortcomings, then SP's lineup will be more perfect.

The commentator thought so too.

"End never played tanks before, but the new version and new tactics are unexpected."

"I also think that Fatan is a more suitable choice."

"Although Fatan is meat, he is not without talents. I guess SP will choose—"

Before the commentary's guess could be uttered, SP locked onto the hero at the speed of light. It wasn't Fatan at all, but an archmage of the system.

"—Majesty Sinnoh?!"

The commentator was slightly startled, and quickly reacted: "This move is very clever. SP's upper, middle and lower three ways are economical. What should I do if the money is not enough? Press the opponent's money! The Majesty's passivity is the key!"

Sinnoh Maharaja Passive Skill: Reduce the economic acquisition speed of all enemies.

This buff has a huge effect in the early stage, but it is relatively tasteless in the later stage.Bing is expensive and fast, and the fast break lineup with SP is just right.

But the reason why the Sinnoh Maharaja is said to be a system mage is because he does not have the ability to carry alone-thin blood, no displacement, and short skill casting distance.Even though the effect of the skill is quite heaven-defying, even invincible, it must be able to survive and hit people before it can be triggered.

The common maharaja system will give him at least two bodyguards, a maid to cooperate with him in casting spells, and a meat tank to block damage for him.

But the SP lineup doesn't even have a normal front row, not to mention preparing bodyguards for mages.

Zuo Zhengyi finally understood why Cheng Sunian said "I can't miss you" to him in a nasty way.

Dare to wait here.

——Except for Zuo Zhengyi, there is probably no second mid laner in the world who can play this kind of cheating lineup.
