Chapter 64: Strong ability to find opportunities in the early stage, even stronger in the later stage? (Two in one)

Lin Dong was unaware of the reaction of the WE members.

But he has indeed become a lot happier since the live broadcast began.

I don’t know why, whether it’s the bad woman, the manager Gao Jun, or even Hongmi, who has always been very strict, they all ignore me?
As a result, Lin Dong's journey of slacking off became much smoother.

Apart from live streaming to fans while eating every day, the only thing he wants to do is to finish the live streaming and get off work as soon as possible. As for whether he plays seriously or not?

No, buddy?
You are just competing in a rank and collecting some gifts from the audience. Why are you playing with your life?
Of course, this makes life difficult for Ah Shui who is playing in a duo with Lin Dong.

Obviously, at this time, he has not yet completely completed the transformation from anchor to professional player. Watching the points dropping rapidly every day, his heart bleeds.

But fortunately, he soon learned good news.

"Zhou Lindong, take a break. Sofm can go up and play."

"There's nothing to be proud of against Snake and M3. We're just playing against our old team anyway, so it's not that difficult."

"But there are two tough battles next week."

"Hit WE first, then LGD."

When Hongmi said this, he paused subconsciously.

In fact, he actually noticed it.

This year's LGD seems to have declined in strength compared to last year, and suffered consecutive defeats in the regular season.

Why did the team become like this this year when it was such a strong team last year?
The problem is... As the head coach, Hongmi can't just brag to his players as soon as he opens his mouth - LGD is not a concern this year, you guys can just play casually?
So now he is a little hesitant. When facing LGD, should he let Sofm play or Lin Dong play?

After thinking for a moment, Hongmi finally spoke.

"When playing against WE, Lin Dong will be on the field. When playing against LGD, Sofm will be on the field."

As soon as Hongmi finished speaking, the corner of Lin Dong's mouth twitched suddenly.

[Fuck! Stop! ]

[Since LGD is weak now, I just want to let Sofm go up and fight! ]

[LGD has the jungle king Eimy! ]

[Does the idiot who beats the master understand? ]

[Sofm is afraid of LGD's jungler, besides Zz1tai! 】

[Because Sofm habitually calculates the time when wild monsters refresh, and then enters the jungle to counter-jungle, but Eimy can't even figure out when his own wild monsters refresh, so how could Sofm calculate it? ]

[When Sofm calculated the time for the wild monsters to refresh and went into the jungle to check, he found that the small wild monsters left in the previous round were still there, and then he was directly killed by Wei Shen or Imp who came to refresh the jungle! ]

[If Sofm were to fight, wouldn't that be courting death? ]

Just when Lin Dong was still hesitating whether to remind Hongmi, Li Yue, who was not far away, spoke first.

Of course, Li Yue was also a little confused at this time.

Because she didn't quite understand one thing.

LGD is very weak this year, right?
VG's normal tactics is for Sofm to play against weak teams and Lin Dong to play against strong teams, right?

LGD's jungler Eimy is a bad player? Is he not as good as Sofm?

That’s not wrong, right?
Then why did Sofm have no chance of winning against LGD?
Although she hadn't figured it out, Li Yue decided not to think about it anymore and said it directly.

"No need, let Lin Dong play in both games next week."

"Ah? Why?" Gao Jun asked subconsciously.

"LGD is the champion of last year's summer season after all." Li Yue made up an excuse, "What if they have a hidden card?"

"We've already lost four games in a row in the regular season, and we still have some cards up our sleeve..." Gao Jun couldn't help but mutter.

"Can you use the trump card to fight against three people?" Li Yue curled her lips, and suddenly remembered what Lin Dong thought last time, so she subconsciously said, "What if they use this trump card to fight against strong teams like us? Who knows, LGD may not kill unknown people!"

"..."

Lin Dong, who was standing by, couldn't help but nodded secretly when he heard what Li Yue said.

This guy always makes reasonable arrangements!
It seems that I don’t have to worry about it anymore!
As expected, he is a time traveler!
Of course, Lin Dong had no idea at this time.

All of Li Yue's arrangements were taught by him personally.

And soon, the day to play against WE arrived.

On the day of the game, under the stage, in the VG lounge.

Hongmi is discussing the tactics for this game with everyone.

"I feel that WE's overall strength is very good. It is a team that should not be underestimated. Everyone should not let their guard down."

"At the moment, their record is not the best, but they have great potential."

"So when playing against WE, in the top lane... I think it would be more appropriate to let Saint Spear play there."

"The enemy top laner is as versatile as Looper, but we have a significant advantage, that is, our top laner can play ADC..."

As soon as Hongmi finished speaking, Lin Dong, who was drinking water in the corner, almost choked himself to death.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

[No? Let Saint Spear go? ]

[I think you guys probably don't know who invented the top dragon turtle, right? 】

[957 was the first person to bring Dragon Turtle to the competition! ]

[The problem is that even if Saint Spear goes up, he won't be able to gain an advantage over 957, because he really knows everything. Not only that, Condi also really knows how to train on the road! ]

[Because WE is different from RNG, WE has Dajiu-zi in the bottom lane, so there is no need to worry about the bottom lane! ]

【There is only one way to win against WE! 】

[Try to break through the middle lane in the early stage. After all, Xiye is quite afraid of assassin mid laners. When he first debuted, it happened to be a version where assassin mid laners were popular. He also happened to meet Wei Shen at his peak, and he was almost forced to retire after being broken in the laning phase.]

[But WE is not a single-core system. Even if Xiye is targeted, they can still hold their ground. So in the mid-game, there must be another person who can hold WE back on the wing and buy time for Sima Laozei to develop.]

[Generally speaking, letting Brother Long fight in this game is the best solution! ]

[Forget it, let's see if the bad woman will remind Hongmi. ]

Thinking of this, Lin Dong subconsciously glanced at the "supervising officer" not far away.

Fortunately, the bad woman this time is still very reliable.

As expected, after a brief silence, Li Yue spoke directly.

"Gao Jun, please remember this."

"In the first game, Saint Spear took a break, and Long came on. He attacked in the early game and led the team in the middle game, buying time for Sima Laozei to develop."

"Mid laner Hou Ye is taking a rest, Leng Shao is on the field, putting pressure on the opponent's mid laner in the laning phase."

"Other locations remain unchanged..."

Faced with Li Yue's command, everyone was no longer surprised.

Not to mention that people can really win by playing like this!

Even if we can't win... he's the boss! What's wrong with satisfying his coaching addiction?
Even if the boss wants to play two games himself, doesn't everyone still have to grit their teeth and agree?
Not only that, even Hongmi couldn't help but nodded in agreement after thinking for a moment after hearing this.

"This tactic can also..."

"If we can open up the situation in the middle and top lanes in the early stages, we can end the game in the early stages."

"If you can't, then drag the teamfight to the late game and protect the bottom lane."

At the same time, on the other side.

After learning about VG's starting lineup for this game, HooN was stunned for a moment.

"Did the opponent's top laner change?"

Hearing this, the first person in the team to feel heartbroken was 957. "What a pity... I thought I could meet the top laner who likes playing AD! As long as he dares to play AD top lane, I dare to play Dragon Turtle top lane!"

"You're overthinking it. How could they let you play something again? If you choose this, they might choose AP top lane!" HooN said unhappily. He randomly took out a piece of paper from his pocket and wrote over and over again, "The Dragon Turtle is pretty good. Why don't you dare to choose this top lane?"

"Because this guy can also play Gangplank in the top lane." 957 sighed, "Gangplank can remove taunts, his ultimate can provide long-distance support, and his passive still deals real damage. In the late game, no matter how much armor I stack, I will still be slashed by him in a few hits. How dare I choose him?"

"This is indeed it."

HooN thought for a moment, then crumpled up the paper in his hand and threw it into the trash can.

Seeing this, Condi on the side finally couldn't help it and said.

"Coach...can't you just buy a notebook? Why do you always like to waste paper..."

"I'm used to it." HooN shook his head, then said, "It seems that the opponent wants to play in the early stage with a medium tempo, and then snowball if possible, and play in the late stage if they can't snowball."

"The problem is...how can we let them do whatever they want?"

"We won't drag the game to the late game! Let's focus on the early game!"

"But be careful, you must be able to attack when you advance and defend when you retreat!"

After hearing what HooN said, everyone in WE nodded in agreement.

At the same time, in the commentary booth.

Wawa and Miller both appear on the stage again.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Wawa spoke first.

"Dear viewers, welcome back to the exciting live broadcast of the 2016 League of Legends Spring Season. I am Wawa, and my partner today is still the familiar Miller."

"We are now at a critical juncture in the fourth week of the regular season. The two teams on the field are ready to bring us a fierce confrontation between VG and WE. The first Bo3 battle is about to begin!"

"In this year's spring season, both teams have made adjustments and reinforcements to varying degrees. It can be said that they have a new lineup and a new look. Currently, VG is still at the top of the standings, and WE is also chasing closely. The strength of the two teams is very close, so today's game is a great opportunity for both teams to prove their strength and compete for the first opportunity of the season."

Miller on the side continued.

"It is worth mentioning that in this game, VG replaced Long Ge in the top lane for the first time in a long time. This may also mean that VG's tactics in this game will change."

"Without further ado, let's take a look at the Bp situation of the two teams."

"In the first game of Bo3, WE is on the blue side and VG is on the red side."

"WE banned Poppy, Lee Sin, and LeBlanc."

"As for VG, they chose to ban Gragas, Thresh, and Nidalee."

"Then, WE picked Lulu first."

"This should be Lulu top lane. I remember 957 has also been practicing this hero on the Korean server recently."

"As for VG, they picked top lane Fiora and mid lane Zed as a response."

"At the same time, WE's second and third floors once again selected... Huh?"

At this point, Wawa was suddenly stunned.

"This skateboard and Bron?"

"WE's bottom lane combination is so fierce!"

"Do they want to play in the early game this time?"

At the same time, seeing the opponent choose the bottom lane combination of Skateboard Shoes and Braum, Hongmi couldn't help but frowned.

"Oh no, with this bottom lane combination, we might be in trouble in this round."

"Skateboards is very strong in the early game. The only hero they are afraid of in this version is Miss Fortune."

"But Braum's E skill, because it can block flying items, is a perfect counter to Miss Fortune's Q skill and ultimate."

"This BP on the opposite side is quite something!"

Looking at the opposing team's lineup, even Lin Dong realized that something was wrong.

"Braum and Lulu... this lineup on the opposite side is not meant for attacking alone."

"It's used for backhand!"

"Once we rush in, we won't be able to kill the opponent's C position immediately, so our team battle will definitely be lost!"

However, this time, Leng Shao was much calmer.

He shrugged and said.

"Don't be so pessimistic. Think about it on the bright side. I can at least get in and fight back. After all, my ultimate skill is a lock-on skill."

"Of course, whether it can come out or not, whether it can be killed in seconds, is another matter."

"Unless someone can go in with me, and it would be best if they have a locking skill, then I would have a chance to kill the opponent's C position."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone subconsciously looked at Lin Dong.

Now VG's lineup only consists of the bottom lane duo and the jungler.

There are indeed heroes in the support position who have locking skills, such as Titan.

But the question is, what if Titan's ultimate is locked? With Braum's shield, the opponent is controlled, and the ADC's damage can't be poured in!
So the only one we can count on now is Lin Dong.

Looking at everyone's eyes, Lin Dong was also stunned for a moment.

"Locked skills?"

"Tsk... What a pity! Yasuo hasn't come out yet. If Yasuo came out, Yasuo would definitely be the first choice."

"But as for the locking skill... there is a backup."

Shaking his head, Lin Dong said helplessly.

"Wei's ultimate is a locking skill, the opponent's Braum can't block it, and I know how to play it, so I can try this in this game."

But just after VG locked down Wei, Xiao Duan poured cold water on them again in the voice chat and said.

"Given WE's nature, the opponent will definitely not have a single core system, and Xiye will definitely choose a late-game big C."

"It's useless for us to kill one in one second, unless we can kill two opponents at once!"

"Anyway, no matter what, when we meet a team in the mid to late game, it will be hard for us to fight."

"In this game, the bottom lane can either play the early game rhythm and look for an opportunity to end the game, or give up the early game and protect Sima Laozei to play in the late game, just like the previous game against EDG."

"So...how should we play the bottom lane in this game?"

For a moment, the atmosphere in VG's voice chat became extremely solemn.

It is obvious that this time, WE's BP gave VG a warning right from the start.

Even Redmi was fooled if it wasn't careful.

However, Hongmi did not rush to make a choice at this time. Instead, after thinking for a long time, he suddenly asked.

"so……"

"Isn't there a bottom lane combination that is good at finding opportunities in the early game and very good at teamfighting in the late game?"

As soon as Hongmi said this, everyone fell silent.

Are you good at finding opportunities in the early stages?

Is it still good in team fights in the later stages?
These are two completely contradictory attributes!

Is there really such a perfect bottom lane combination?

If there really is such a combination, why wouldn't other teams choose it?

　Two chapters in one, so there is only one chapter today.
