Chapter 864 Finding the Starting Point Is Considered a Success
The guests in the commentary box of the Korean stream are on the line, but the Chinese stream is much more harmonious.
Today's Chinese commentators are Zeyuan and 957. The two of them have no personal opinions. The focus of the pre-game analysis is on other things.
Zeyuan: "Here we go! The T1 roster has come out today. Brother Li has confirmed his appearance. Faker fans, hurry up and start the live broadcast."
"When Brother Li was away, many viewers threatened not to watch the T1 game. Today, you can watch with confidence."
957: "T1's lineup has changed a lot this season. After seven games in the spring split, there were a total of five lineup combinations. Many netizens are making fun of the T1 coaching staff's permutations and combinations."
Zeyuan: "There is no way! Maybe Director Danny has never fought such a rich battle in his life. Suddenly he has so many outstanding players and he has no idea where to start. The lineup for the training match did not seem to achieve the expected results at the beginning, so he can only I tried it one by one slowly.”
957: “But such frequent rotations can easily cause problems with players’ mentality, and replacing players after losing a game will not have any effect.”
"The main reason is that there are too few samples now, so it may not be possible to explain the problem. Don't worry! After T1 tests all the lineups, they may find the five most suitable people."
Zeyuan's tone was a little unbearable: "Hey! Some enthusiastic netizens have already counted it. There are 24 permutations and combinations of the ten players on the T1 list. Take your time! There is no rush."
The leg brother is very honest: "They don't play 24 games in a season, right? I remember that the LCK Spring Split only has 18 games in total?"
"It doesn't matter! The Spring Split is not finished and there is still a Summer Split."
Zeyuan said angrily: "It's only February now, and the World Championship is in October. There is still enough time for T1 to slowly arrange it. It doesn't matter if it starts a little slower. If you find it, you will be successful!"
The live broadcast room was flooded with barrages.
"Gan! If you find it successfully, it's 233333."
"The senior colonel has always been good at yin and yang."
"There's really no rush! It's only February now, enough time for T1's entire lineup to test it out."
"To tell a joke, Keri may not even know which teammates he will play with until the moment before the game starts."
"Little K: I also want to play permutation and combination. Please play with me."
"This coach messed with me, Brother Li, and took the blame for beating DK and KT."
······
While the commentary was teasing, the players from both sides were ready at the base and entered BP after being confirmed by the referee.
In the first game, T1 BAN first on the blue side.
As soon as it came up, T1 directly banned Dao Mei.
957: "You still won't let me go. Orange Brother and Sister Dao didn't even get released in the spring game, right?"
"No problem at all! Protect Zeus. If you encounter Brother Orange's sword girl in the second game of your career, it will be too cruel for this top laner who has high hopes."
Zeyuan said with a hint of sympathy in his tone, "Besides, Brother Chengzi said before the game that he would help T1 arrange and combine well. Zeus may be a little difficult to handle today."
KT on the red side dropped the card with a backhand BAN, limiting Faker's rhythm.
The second BAN slot on the blue side is given to Samila.
If the blue side doesn't grab this hero, the red side will most likely take it if they have two Pik positions on their backhand.
KT's second BAN choice was given to Aphelios.
Zeyuan: "Aphelios! Little Lu Bu used Aphelios to get five kills in the previous game. It's really worth noting."
957: "Tsuki Jinchuriki, I feel like he is the most outstanding Aphelios user in LCK this year."
KT's BAN player mainly protects the bottom lane.
It’s not like the two sides have never played before in training matches. When T1 got the hammer combination, it was very strong online, and KT would be more difficult to handle in the bottom lane.
The attributes of the newcomers' operating monsters are fully maxed out. T1's two bot laners are extremely capable in laning and can often have a great advantage in laning. In the previous games, they got the enemy's combination of Aphelios + Thresh. The first tower on the bottom lane almost didn't last more than 14 minutes before the skin was eaten.
Of course, in addition to having full laning attributes, little Lu Bu also has obvious problems.
Judging from the previous games, Little Lu Bu is the God of War when he has an advantage in the early stage, but once he loses his advantage, Little Lu Bu becomes confused in team battles.
Not to mention disadvantaged situations, problems often arise in balanced situations.
This is somewhat similar to the problem of his brother who plays StarCraft.
The God of War in the Tailwind Bureau has a 200% bonus to Tailwind's combat power. Once the Tailwind fails, it may not even be able to perform at 70% of its own level.
However, Xiao Lu Bu may be more likely to be a newcomer because of his lack of experience, and may not have no chance to make corrections.
The blue side gave the third BAN slot to Olaf.
Zeyuan: "Oh? This hand of Olaf is a bit unexpected. Brother Orange, don't you show respect to Qinggang Ying? Would you rather BAN Olaf and ignore Qinggang Ying?"
957: "The main reason is that the bloodthirsty + blood-hand warriors are so powerful now. Warriors like Olaf, who have strong blood-sucking abilities, use a set that is both meaty and effective. Serious injuries cannot limit all kinds of blood-sucking."
"In the LPL game a few days ago, Doinb Kled Thirst + Bloody Hand rushed in alone with three people to kill Xia, who had a 1,000 bounty. The opponent couldn't kill him at all."
Ze Yuan: "Hey! Maybe Riot decided to urgently weaken them after watching that game. In the next version 11.3, both Bloodthirster and Bloodthirster have been confirmed to be weakened. By then, Olaf may not be seen in the jungle."
KT on the red side banned Taliyah.
Lin Cheng said that he wanted to destroy the opponent's top lane, so he tried to avoid T1's top and jungle combination.
Banning Tsart and Taliyah is partly meant to prevent the opponent from helping the top lane.
Starting to select players, T1 on the blue side directly locked Kai'Sa on the first floor.
KT on the red side immediately locked Thresh + Udyr.
Ze Yuan: "Udyr! It's so good! After being privately killed by Pyo last time, Xiaohuasheng started to choose Udyr more and more."
957: "In this version, Udyr is good against jungle cores such as Nidalee, Graves, and Lillia, and a Thresh can also make up for Udyr's short legs in team battles."
Seeing that the opponent first played the jungler and support, T1 locked Gnar on the second floor of the blue side.
This move is meant to replace BAN with grabbing.
Since Lin Cheng said that Gnar is invincible in the last interview, he has taken Gnar every time he has the chance. In this game, he had no chance to grab Gnar because he played Udyr first and matched Thresh.
After grabbing Gnar first, the blue team showed Tsar on the third floor.
"Another Tsar?"
Ze Yuan laughed out loud.
957: "Tsar has been strengthened in this version, and I don't think there is any problem with it."
Ze Yuan: "But before it was strengthened, T1 always gave Tsar to Brother Li. The last time Brother Li played Tsar, he lost the game three times, and then he was carried off."
The barrage was full of question marks.
"??? Tsar again?"
"I vomit! Are you still going to play my Brother Li?"
"Wait for Guapi to be carried off after losing the first game."
