Chapter 53: Isn’t it okay to just ban it?
the other side.
Mata's feelings are actually similar to those of Saint Spear.
This round seemed to do nothing.
Why did it suddenly collapse?
The key point is that Mata played Poppy in this game, a more protective support, and was unable to help at all.
In the mid-game, Mata was even more confused!
"It's broken! My W skill can't block Spider's E skill! This thing fell from the sky! It doesn't count as a charge!"
"It's broken! I can block the first part of Ekko's E skill, but I can't do anything about the second part! His second part of E is the same as flash, it's a shuttle skill!"
"Why can't they all be stopped?"
"And if the other side wants to kill us, they don't need to come in!"
"Whether it's Hammer's Q skill or Spider's human form E skill, they're all long-range rewards!"
Not only that, in the mid-game, the flaws of RNG's lineup also became apparent.
When Ahri is underdeveloped, RNG's lineup system clearly lacks burst damage.
However, the burst damage was not enough, which resulted in Looper's Ice Girl not only failing to kill the opponent's C position instantly after entering the field and using her ultimate move, but she herself died first.
Not only can we not win the team battle, we can't even lead the team in the lane!
Whether it is Ekko or Quinn, their ability to push lanes and towers is obviously stronger than that of the RNG system.
As a result, for a time, the army was defeated.
Offstage, in the VG lounge.
Looking at what was happening on the screen, Hongmi couldn't help but shook his head and said.
"It looks like the other side was stunned."
"In fact, if the opponent's jungler doesn't play around the lower half of the area, but plays around the upper half, there is still a chance."
"The problem was that there was a trick at level 1. Saint Spear walked in alone and fooled RNG, causing Lee Sin to only be able to start jungle in the bottom half of the jungle, and then the rhythm was completely ruined."
"Even if Saint Spear doesn't have TP now, he has his ultimate, so he can go solo. RNG can't get to the Baron position."
"The most important thing is... even if Poppy's ultimate kills our highest-damage player Ekko, the opponent won't dare to enter the field, because Ekko has his ultimate and can come back at any time."
"I think RNG will be gone once the Baron respawns."
Hearing Hongmi's words, Gao Jun was stunned for a moment.
"Normally, wouldn't it be the right time to reach level 3 when you start jungle in the lower half of the jungle, and then go to the middle and top lanes? I don't think the opposing jungler is fooled, right?"
"You've already said it's normal, but this isn't normal." Redmin pursed his lips and said, "Is it normal for the top laner Quinn to be like this? He was jungling in the bottom half and going up, but at level 2 he found out that his mid laner was dead. The top laner Quinn went to the jungle after pushing the line. This wasn't a normal jungling. He was forced to change jungle."
Hearing this, Gao Jun suddenly understood and said with a smile.
"That was all thanks to Lin Dong who went to the middle lane at level 2 and killed the opponent's Leblanc. Otherwise, this game wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
"Yeah." Hongmi exclaimed, "This guy is really good! And why do I feel like he knows all the opponents' laning styles and weaknesses? He even knows more than our coaching staff, which is really strange."
As soon as Hongmi finished speaking, a team fight in the game was about to break out.
And the final outcome was not what he expected.
Accompanied by the wailing of the Baron, RNG's lineup was quickly dispersed due to the lineup restraint and economic disadvantage, and was eventually pushed down in one wave with the support of the Baron buff.
With the explosion of the main crystal, the final score between the two sides was fixed at 15:2.
the other side.
For some reason, even though their own base exploded, everyone on RNG breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Especially Xiaohu and Wuxin.
When they put down their mouse, they found that their palms had begun to sweat.
Everyone returned to the lounge in silence.
Head coach Fly also looked at everyone with a complicated expression and said quietly.
"So...how do you think we should play the next round?"
Hearing what the head coach said, Xiaohu couldn't help but recall the situation in the previous round when he was laning against the opponent's mid laner Ekko, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Although we were indeed targeted...but the opponent's Ike was also really strong."
"If he gets a little advantage, he will really use it to snowball online!"
"I feel like I really can't compete with the opponent in the early and mid-game, at least I can't beat the mid-jungle rhythm in the early game..." "I can't control the opponent's mid laner in the middle lane."
"If we let him get up, it will be more difficult for us to play in team fights, and the ADC will not be able to survive at all."
Hearing Xiaohu's words, Wuxin's mouth twitched.
To be honest, he felt that he was unfairly dealt with in this round.
The bot lane went well, without gaining any advantage or being at a big disadvantage.
As a result, when he finally developed well and barely dealt some damage, a fat Ekko on the opposite side came up with a triple ring, combined with ignite and thunder damage, and killed him instantly.
The key point is that the coach promised at the beginning that Poppy's assistance, which could restrain all entry skills, could not control the opponent at all!
After several team battles, my number of deaths is almost catching up with Xiaohu!
But Wu Xin did not answer.
Because RNG now has a big problem facing them.
If we don’t focus on the mid and jungle rhythm in the early game, then are we going to focus on the bottom lane rhythm?
The problem is the bot lane...can't help.
Normally, there are two ways to play around the lower half.
The first one is that the mid and jungle help the bottom lane establish a laning advantage, allowing the bottom lane to snowball and win the game.
But this kind of gameplay has a basic requirement.
That means the ADC must be very strong, at least he must not be weak in laning phase.
Take QG for example.
The second type is also that the mid and jungle go to the bottom lane to gank people, but the difference is that the bottom lane is just a tool. The mid and jungle go to the bottom lane just to withdraw money, and then help the mid and jungle establish an advantage, allowing the mid and jungle to continue snowballing.
This is the tactic RNG adopted in this game.
But unfortunately, the results were minimal.
Although he was too embarrassed to speak, Mata beside him didn't care and spoke directly.
"I know VG quite well."
"Their previous top laner played the warrior top lane well, but his hero pool was too shallow and his weaknesses were obvious."
"The opposing head coach is Hongmi, and Looper and I know him better. This is his style."
"What he is best at is finding the strengths of his own players and bringing them out, such as the opponent's mid laner."
"As long as Icon is on the field, the opponent will definitely focus on the early game mid-jungle attack rhythm."
"If Easyhoon plays, the opponent will definitely play in the mid-to-late game."
"Our ADC is too weak. If we want to beat VG, we must not focus on the bottom lane."
"I think I should give up the bottom lane, and roam with the jungler, and then focus on the mid and top lane, and let Looper supplement a damage-type top laner."
"No matter what, our top laner and jungler must be supplemented with a hero similar to ADC to make up for the lack of damage."
Listening to Mata's straightforward words, Wuxin said nothing.
Who says he is a former champion support?
Not only that, Mata is also the team commander of RNG.
The key is his own strength, and Wuxin is actually very clear about it.
Not far away, Fly listened to Mata's words and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Looper and asked.
"What do you think? Is there any problem if we adjust the tactics like this?"
"No problem." Looper glanced at the screen in the middle of the training room, which was replaying the game footage, and said, "Besides, the opponent probably doesn't know yet. I have also practiced Quinn top lane."
"What about the middle lane?" Mlxg couldn't help but ask, "Even if we don't play the mid-jungle rhythm, we can't avoid the middle lane."
Obviously, Xiaohu had some psychological trauma after being killed three times in a row in the middle lane in the previous round.
Facing Mlxg's concerns, Mata simply replied calmly.
"There are many new players who are much better, but generally speaking, they all have a common weakness."
"These guys generally have a very shallow hero pool."
"No matter how powerful his LeBron and Ekko are."
"Can't we just ban it?"
