What is a wandering mid laner?

"Today, on this stage, I will prove who is the number one jungler in the world!" Little Peanut raised his head slightly, standing beside Faker with his arms crossed.

[Little Peanut, are you starting again? 】

[I think it's the translator doing something wrong, bullying me because I can't understand Korean? 】

[Ancestor Saiwen: Last year, I was marked as 4396. It’s not over, right? 】

Six SKT players stood in front of the Oriental Pearl Tower one by one.

Then the camera switched, and on the other side of the Bund, Xiao Tian, ​​who looked like he was still awake with his eyes closed, appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"It is well known that SKT is the top super team in the world..." Suantou Wang Baxu leaned on the red brick wall of the Shanghai alley, "But last year YM added 'one' to their title, I think today's The results of the semi-finals will also not change."

The camera shifted 90° in an instant, and Lin Ran's handsome face could not be found even if he looked down at the camera from a height.

"I think for the League of Legends Global Finals, which has been held for the seventh year, the double championship of the World Championship can barely be called a dynasty. If it is won twice in a row, the gold content will be even higher..."

His calm and calm voice was transmitted to the ears of every audience in the stadium through the live acoustics.

"And if YM can still win the championship this year, then both the 2016 and 2017 global finals will belong to LPL. At that time, we can confidently say that the world's number one team is YM, and LPL is the world's number one division."

The uproar in the audience instantly swelled!

The LPL audience has longed for this first division for too long. From the ancient S2 to today, they have gone for 6 years.

The victory of YM in the darkest hour in 2016 gave them confidence. Now that the dawn has come, they are full of confidence and ready to welcome the light!

[YM rush, rush! 】

Tens of thousands of spectators waved the cheering sticks in their hands, and the sound swept through the Oriental Sports Center like a mountain and a sea.

In the last scene of the promotional video, Lin Ran stood by the Bund River, looking towards the opposite bank with several other teammates.

On the other side of the Huangpu River, Lee Sang-hyuk stood in front of his teammates, with his hands folded against the chilly wind of late autumn, his eyes were as condensed as a torch and lightning.

The two world-class mid laners facing each other across the river pushed the atmosphere to a climax again!

The big screen fell into darkness again, and the cheers gradually died down, but the hot atmosphere did not subside at all, and the audience could even hear each other's heavy breathing.

The background music switched again, and "Worlds Championship 2017" echoed in the surrounding stands through outstanding acoustics.

The sound is melodious and the melody is majestic and majestic. Fist is worthy of the title of a music company. This song has been used in the World Championship since its release in 2016.

The difference from last year is that this year, Riot added the ancient musical instruments of the host China to the melody to commemorate the host of this World Championship.

The next moment, the lights were turned on again, and the stage appeared in front of all the audience in an instant!

The giant dragon on the innermost wall is entrenched, and the Summoner Trophy is firmly trapped in its arms. The camera slowly zooms out, and Ren Dong, who is wearing a black Tang suit, comes to the stage.

"Good afternoon, Shanghai summoners!" He said loudly, "After four weeks of fierce fighting in the 2017 League of Legends Global Finals, there are currently only four teams left. Today, two top teams with high reputations at home and abroad will compete A wonderful matchup at the Oriental Sports Center!"

"SKT and YM, from the historical battle records to star player matchups, the relationship between the two teams is quite deep..."

At this time, the director gave the record of the previous match between the two teams.

2016 Global Finals YM3-2SKT

2017 Mid-Season Championship YM3-1SKT

The audience in the audience once again let out deafening shouts. The two final victories between YM and SKT have fulfilled the dreams of many people, and the memory is deep and indelible!

"Although SKT failed twice in the face of YM, they have reached the top 4 of the global finals for the third consecutive year. No one will doubt their ambition to win the championship. On the other hand, YM, our local team in the LPL division, is aiming to defend the title. "," Ren Dong looked at the audience in the stands, "but this game is over, and only one team can get the final ticket to the Bird's Nest!"

"I have a partner at the scene today, who is also my opponent..." Ren Dong waved his arms, "Let's invite OGN to comment, Roaring Emperor Caster Jun!"

Amidst thunderous applause from the audience, Roaring Emperor Jeon Yong-sun stepped onto the stage quickly.

He bowed around to thank the audience for the applause, and then said in broken Mandarin, "Hello Peng Youmeng, everyone!"

The YM team members who were preparing for the scene backstage laughed out loud when they heard this sentence, and the originally tense and serious atmosphere was instantly shattered.

"This guy is really funny, and his Mandarin level is on par with Knight's." Suantou Wang Bayi was black and black, and this was his normal operation.

Roaring Emperor also knew that the Chinese he was learning was very difficult, so he decisively switched back to his mother tongue.

After introducing the glorious history of SKT this year, he raised his arm and shouted loudly, "Let us welcome the champion team of the 2013 and 2015 League of Legends Global Finals..."

"SK Telecom T1!"

The last syllable was dragged to the limit by him, and the angry sound instantly ignited the atmosphere of the scene.

Accompanied by Roaring Emperor's team introduction, everyone in SKT filed out and stepped onto the stage at a steady pace.

"Top laner Huni, jungler Peanut, mid laner Faker!"

As one of the most popular foreign players in the League of Legends e-sports circle, Lee Sang-hyuk's appearance on the stage won a lot of applause, even many audiences holding YM support light signs did not hesitate to applaud themselves!

Lee Sang Hyuk has experienced peaks and troughs in these years, and it is not surprising that he, who has washed away his charm, warmly welcomes foreign countries, waving with a calm expression.

Faker can be regarded as one of the star players with the most passer-by fans in the league. He pursued high-profile cupping in his early years, and attracted a large number of fans by relying on operations and hard skills.

In recent years, however, his behavior has become more mature and restrained, and he is a naive critic in real life. Even if his performance has not returned to his former glory this year, it will not affect his rapid increase in the number of fans.

"Bot lane Bang, support Wolf! And their head coach Kkoma and substitute Blank!"

Li Zaiwan tilted his head, bent his left middle finger and ring finger, and made a classic gesture that looked extremely abstract. It seemed that he had seen too much 6+1.

"Let's give another round of applause, SKTelecom T1!"

Roaring Emperor finally ended his team introduction work with a long sound.

Amidst the brief cheers, Ren Dong picked up the microphone with an excited expression, "I think every audience will be very familiar with the team that will be playing next."

"Let's call out their names together..."

At this moment, the sound waves erupting from the stands are enough to destroy all obstacles and soar into the sky!

"Young Miracles!"

The seven members of YM stepped onto the stage one by one, and the cheers and cheers from the surrounding audience rose again!

"Top laner Gimgoon, jungler Tian, ​​mid laner Ran..." Ren Dong was forced to put down the microphone and pause the team introduction, because the moment the audience saw Lin Ran, the burst of cheers was louder than any other player before. Be loud!

Even with the help of a microphone, Ren Dong was not sure that his voice could overwhelm the huge waves of sound that filled the sky.

Lin Mingdong in the hotel suite glanced at the time, closed the file in his hand and rubbed his brows, and just opened the game live broadcast room, when he heard the audience shouting Lin Ran's name.

The boy on the stage is calm and composed, with countless high-spirited and indomitable vigor in his brows.

He smiled with satisfaction, turned his head and looked through the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room, but saw that his temple hair was getting lighter and lighter.

Lin Mingdong suddenly remembered something and opened the online shopping software.

……

Ten seconds later, the voice of the audience gradually decreased, before Ren Dong continued, "Jackeylove in the bot lane, Crisp in the support, and their coach Crescent and LWX as a substitute!"

He waved his arms vigorously, and roared with all his strength:

"Let us once again welcome the champion team of the 2016 League of Legends World Championship, Young Miracles!"

The audience at the scene had endless energy today, and they burst into shouts and cheers again and again!

Although Ren Dong's team introduction was not as passionate as Roaring Emperor's, the enthusiastic audience made up for the gap between them!

"Heroes pursue legends, let us look forward to today's peak match together!"

The screens of the viewers watching the live broadcast were once again plunged into darkness, and another version of Riot's event trailer appeared in front of their eyes.

China's unique ink painting style renders the Bund and the Oriental Pearl Tower with a unique charm, and then the 10 contestants in the semi-finals and their respective heroes appeared in turn, and the ink painting style made everything antique.

After Faker and Ryze disappeared from the audience's sight, a yordle riding a galaxy magic armor broke through the heavy fog and jumped out. The weapon in his hand sprayed raging flames all the time. Dizzy opened a cloud.

One of the clouds quickly zoomed in, and the audience could see Lin Ran standing sideways in the cloud, with a tall nose, plump and handsome.

【Handsome handsome! 】

【I want to slide on the bridge of Lin Ran's nose! 】

[This ink-and-wash style is so handsome, I was so frightened that I quickly touched my face to make sure that I was better before letting go of my heart]

……

Today's commentary is still the three of Doll, Miller and Remember.

The commentary section formed by Zeyuan and legal pioneer Zhang Dapao had finished reading the advertisement, and the three commentators did not hesitate, and immediately chose to enter the topic.

"Today's focus match has attracted the attention of millions of people around the world, and it is easy to break the ratings record of Riot in recent years..." Waowa had previously obtained the rough data of simultaneous live broadcasts around the world from the director, and she knew it well .

"After all, the two sides in this game have monopolized all the world championships in the past two years. Whether it is the team honor or the quality of the star players, they are all at the top level in the world." Remember to explain to the side.

Miller answered, "There are also many voices on the Internet these days, saying that this game is a preview of the S7 finals, and the winner will win the Summoner Trophy in the Bird's Nest."

"It is true to say that YM and SKT are in the lower half where there are many strong players, and Dragon Ball, which has been swept and eliminated before, is also the favorite to win the championship this year," Waowa nodded, and he received a prompt from the director through the headset, "But The ownership of the final champion is still unknown, but today we can know who will win the first final seat to enter the Bird's Nest!"

With a bang, the BP of the first round of the semi-finals has begun!

The audience in the audience couldn't hold back anymore, they waved their wrists, making the cheering sticks collide with each other and make a muffled sound!

"SKT got the priority to choose the side in this semi-final, they banned Kenan first!"

White Crescent took a deep breath to adjust her state, and sent Calista to the BAN position.

Obviously, kkoma had been prepared for a long time, and he banned Xia in the second hand, not wanting to give Jack the version of the strong hero he was comfortable with.

Miller was not surprised by YM's second-hand BAN, "Jess... this is a single belt to limit Huni."

Although the armor-piercing armor has been weakened in the mid-season version, Jayce began to shine in the second half of the major league summer splits.

This is not unrelated to the prevalence of incense burners. Since the mainstream support positions are occupied by crispy skins such as Lulufeng girls Karma and Luo, Ue Nakano must assume the front row function.

It is not impossible to choose four late-stage output cores and a crispy support team. IG likes to play this way, but it is not the mainstream style of play in the current version.

Coupled with the appearance of the tank equipment [Gargoyle Slate Armor] and [Adaptive Helmet], the ecology of the top laner seems to have become the world of meat tanks.

But in fact it's not that simple. After two weeks of running in the incense burner version, the professional team quickly took another step forward in the ecological chain on the road.

Meat tank heroes generally have short hands, which has something to do with Riot’s hero design principles. The three core points of survival, control, and output, most heroes can only gain one or two points.

There are very few heroes who can get three points - Daomei and Qinggangying are rare all-round heroes, but they have been punched a lot because of this, because if the base stats are not cut, these two heroes will be long-term. Dominate the professional game.

Tanks basically need control skills, and their survival is guaranteed, so the output will definitely be weakened. As an important part of the output environment, the range is naturally limited by fists.

Short-handed tanks are prevalent, and top laners Jayce and Gnar came into being.

These two heroes can be regarded as long-handed heroes in the top laner ecology, and the difference in range will show more obvious advantages in the hands of players with higher tiers. If professional players can get these two heroes to face tanks, through the range Pulling frequently, the pressure displayed will make the opponent unable to breathe.

Gnar's laning in the early stage is quite mild. Its suppression of tank heroes is mainly reflected in the side lane single belt in the later stage. The percentage damage of W [Excitement] is combined with the slowing effect of the big ice hammer. As long as it catches the enemy while belting Single, you can stick all the way to death.

And Jess is a hero of another dimension, and his laning is specially designed to deal with small and short players.

The top line is very long, professional Jess can even use the minion's hatred range, and at level 1, the opponent's top laner will be pushed out of the experience zone.

As long as he has a certain command of the line of troops, wait for the third wave of artillery troops to arrive and then press the line of troops into the opponent's defensive tower. Jess can do whatever he wants in front of the tower while the short-handed tank replenishes troops, constantly consuming the opponent's top laner.

If you are more ruthless, shake the jungler. At that time, the double level 3 tank will surpass a level 1 tank that has no experience. It will not be difficult at all.

For a line bully like Jess to hit a single tank, it is simply a dimensionality reduction strike. This kind of thinking is very simple and rude-to suppress the development of the opponent's top laner through laning.

Tank equipment is indeed very cost-effective now, but you have to have money to pay for it!

As long as the suppression is successfully played in the early stage, the position of the tank hero will become very embarrassing. He can't beat Jess in the lane, and it is very difficult for him to eat soldiers under the tower; his team-fighting effect can't keep up with the invincible Jess in the mid-term.

It is unrealistic to delay the later stage. At this time, relying on the single-lane advantage, Jess has a high probability of being ahead of a large piece of equipment. With this equipment gap, the opponent has already started to use Jays' enhanced cannon Poke to try to force Baron Nash.

After all, you can't expect every opponent to torture Dalong like EDG, right?

"SKT gave Karma the last BAN slot in the first round!" I remember being very surprised by this, "Is this the mid laner who wants to limit Ran?"

"It should be..." Miller pondered for two seconds and said, "If you want to limit Liu Qingsong's incense burner soft assistant, Fengnv, who has a higher overall winning rate in the current competition, should be a good choice."

White Crescent raised his eyebrows, he didn't understand kkoma's intention.

If you want to limit the mid laner of the incense burner, there is still Lulu outside, and the super system of the prince + Galio has not been dismantled.

If YM does not choose to ban these three heroes, the blue side SKT can only choose one of Prince and Galio, but in this way Lulu will be released; if Kkoma insists on grabbing Lulu, then YM will Can get the prince + Galio.

No matter how YM is considered, White Crescent pondered for a long time, and decided to continue to target Huni, and block Shen, who has both single belt and team battle support capabilities.

"SKT's first pick, they snatched the prince!"

The white crescent eyebrows stretched, "Galio and... Lulu, how are you?"

"Let's go." Lin Ran lowered his head and adjusted the position of the wrist guard, and did not raise any objections.

Now that Karma is blocked, Lulu and Fengnv are left as the strong Xianglu Ruanfu outside. Judging from the winning rate, Fengnv is indeed higher.

But they still tend to take Lulu.
