Chapter 311 [The opening of the summer game: fighting for the top of the world! 】(1/2)

June 11th.

Magic City, Zhengda Square.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

A small bus with a three-masted sailboat printed on its body was parked at the entrance of the square, attracting the attention of nearby passers-by.

Many ym fans who had been waiting here came over holding team uniforms and signed posters of the players.

The bus door slowly opened.

Su Chen, wearing his summer team uniform, jumped out of the bus first.

As soon as he appeared, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted around the bus.

"Jiang Shen! Look here!"

"Can you sign your name for me?"

"Come on ym summer competition! Go all the way!"

Su Chen took off his summer team uniform jacket, put it on his shoulders, walked to the edge of the security fence, skillfully took some photos and team uniforms, and signed the three letters "jkd" on top.

Facing the fans' support, Su Chen also responded with a polite smile.

Today is the opening day of the lpl summer split, and it is scheduled on the weekend.

There were quite a lot of people coming to watch the game.

Xiaotian, who got out of the car behind him, also came over, greeted his supporters, and had a friendly interaction.

"It's almost time, let's go in." Meng Ma, who was standing by the bus, shouted to the players by the fence after communicating with two members of the coaching staff.

"Let's go." Su Chen patted Xiaotian who was taking photos with fans, then put on his coat and walked towards the aisle.

"Hey! Wait for me, I don't know the road!"

"Hold it, hold it, hold it!"

The teenagers in dark black team uniforms staggered over to catch up with Su Chen one by one and disappeared into the shadows of the passage.



In the lounge.

After putting on makeup and taking promotional photos, the YM players have returned to the room.

There is still half an hour before the game starts.

Meng Ma held the notebook, stood in front of the vertical LCD screen, and clicked on it a few times with his hand.

A complete topographic map of the canyon appeared on the screen.

"The 8.11 version has been online for a week. Recently, through training matches with various LPL teams, we have basically figured out some ideas for the current new version..."

Meng Ma took out the sensor pen and circled the upper half of the canyon several times, once again emphasizing some key points of the new version.

On the European msi, ym experienced version 8.10, a major update made by Riot Games.

In the msi version, due to the enhancement of Rift Herald and Baron, the priority of Rift resources has changed.

The previous order of Elemental Dragon > Rift Herald has been completely reversed.

The subsequent impact is that in the early and middle stages of the game, both sides have to work more around the top half.

Whoever can take down the Rift Herald first will be guaranteed to take down at least one of the enemy's defense towers. If the layout is reasonable, it may create an economy of two to three thousand, plus an elemental dragon.

However, for the sake of balance, the designer deliberately weakened a number of warrior top lane heroes on MSI, and at the same time introduced the bottom lane AD core represented by ez and Kai'Sa.

Avoid the phenomenon where both sides of the competition directly choose to give up the bottom half in order to compete for the Canyon Pioneer.

Such a skewed version is obviously detrimental to ym.

Because the warrior top laner is the cornerstone of ym's team building, but the bottom lane has always been a shortcoming.

However, in the end, ym still won the MSI championship with the reverse version.

The solution to the problem of defeating Samsung in the end is to use long-handed AD heroes on the top lane to perform the ultimate online suppression, and on the bottom lane, use a dual-AP mage combination to push the lane crazily to shorten the laning period.

This is obviously not the designer's original intention when planning msi.

After the msi finals.

The battle between ym and Samsung not only refreshed the outside world's perception, but also triggered extensive discussions within Riot Games.

Even after killing many top lane heroes in succession, ym still did not return to the traditional tank top lane in the top lane. Instead, he changed his thinking and achieved a more extreme offensive effect.

Is this a victory based on advanced tactical concepts or a miracle created by a talented player like Jiang Keda?

It is also difficult for designers to debate an answer in a moment.

However, in the end, the designer decided to put a patch in version 8.11 for a series of problems left by the previous version.

June 1st is Children’s Day.

Riot Games officially announced version 8.11 for the Summer Split, which involves several important updates.

First, a group of warrior top laners represented by the four sisters above have been upgraded to varying degrees, and the equipment supporting these heroes, such as Black Cut, Tiamat and other attributes, have been strengthened to a certain extent.

In other words, the warrior top laner has ushered in spring again after experiencing hibernation in several versions!

Secondly, for the popular lane-pushing artifact [Flag of Command] in the past two seasons, the designer made a major overhaul, removing the effect of minion immunity to magic damage in [Flag of Command], and at the same time reducing the cooldown time.

This also ensures that the speed push effect of [Flag of Command] will not overlap with the tower breaking effect of [Rift Herald], avoiding abnormal push rhythm in the middle and late stages.

Third, the armor-breaking armor that adc heroes rely on in the middle and late stages, such as [The Last Whisper], has been slightly enhanced, and the synthesis path has been changed, so that adc heroes can try to keep up with the growth rate of warrior top laners.

.

In addition, there are also a number of unpopular heroes, such as Tetsuo, Scarecrow, Alchemy, etc., who have been slightly strengthened, as well as the launch of a new hero [Blood Harbor Ripper Pike].

"In general, the 8.11 version has improved the strength of the laning phase for all three lanes, once again weakening the ability to push the lane in the early and mid-term. This version hopes that we will fight as much as possible and cause more trouble in the early stage." Meng Ma concluded.

road.

"Indeed, in recent training matches, I feel that the frequency of fights in the early stage has increased a lot. I see that there are several teams that usually wait until 15 minutes before breaking out for first blood. Recently, they have also learned to frequently cause trouble in the early stage." Xiao Tian laughed.

road.

"From the looks of it, we have quite an advantage in the summer version," Zuo glanced at Su Chen, "After all, we are the boss on the road."

"Not necessarily," Meng Ma shook his head, "Fist's large-scale correction this time seems to have strengthened the top lane, but in fact it has narrowed the gap between Su Chen and other players in disguise."

"Indeed," Su Chen nodded, "I think the summer version will put more emphasis on our linkage in the early and mid-term. Except for the ad position, the other four people must move as much as possible."

"Yes, but I believe that after the training of MSI, everyone here has enough tacit understanding, especially Xiaowen. You can be regarded as a player who has experienced international competitions. I hope to see you have more success in the summer competition."

Much growth." Meng Ma specially cue Zhang Xiaowen.

Zhang Xiaowen, who was listening carefully to Meng Ma's analysis, sat upright after being mentioned, and his speech was a little stuttered due to nervousness.

"I...I will work hard and promise not to hold anyone back."

Meng Ma nodded and looked at bovy who was silent at the side.

"If you have any ideas, just communicate with everyone on the court, especially Xiaowen. Many times he has to act in accordance with your ideas." Meng Ma said.

bovy nodded: "Yeah."

Zhang Xiaowen glanced at Bovy, then at Meng Ma, as if he was hesitant to speak, but finally endured it.

"Little hand, why don't you play with airplanes today?" Xiaotian saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he quickly made a joke about his left hand.

"Today I'm going to face Scout, and I feel like he's going to use mid laner Lucian to attack me." Lefty frowned slightly as he recalled the previous encounters.

Compared to the push battle between him and Brother Crown in the MSI finals.

In the spring finals, edg's mid laner scout put significantly more pressure on him online.

Su Chen casually picked up a schedule.

On June 11, the opening match of the lpl summer split, a total of two rounds of b03 duels were arranged.

The first match is between the old rivals of the spring finals, ym versus edg.

The second game will be a duel between the semi-final enemies, rng and ig.

"Recently, we have been playing training matches with EDG a lot, and the results are actually quite good. It will be good if everyone can play with a calm mind today." Meng Ma clapped his hands, as usual, reducing the pressure on the players.

"In the first few games in the first week, we will first find our state and adapt to the next version. Don't put any extra pressure on us just because we are MSI champions."

"Yes," Su Chen also agreed, "Let's take it step by step slowly. The goal of the summer split is to make it to the playoffs and ensure qualification for the S competition. Tonight is just the beginning."

"No, I'm extremely swollen right now. I feel like I have to go two to zero tonight, and I can't even work overtime for one minute." Xiaotian rubbed his hands and said a little impatiently.

Everyone in the lounge also laughed.

In the spring finals more than a month ago, ym and edg fought five games at the Rubik's Cube Sports Center in Fog City. The last game was a comeback with a financial limit of 10,000 yuan, and they were able to overcome edg.

Before winning the MSI championship, many people in the LPL felt that YM defeated EDG due to luck.

In terms of hard power, EDG is one level better than YM.

Today, YM, who returned from Europe, is already the team that has been crowned the MSI champion.
