051: The beginning of a legend! (2-in-1)(2/2)
He has a strong voice and a colorful hairstyle.
Miller, his commentary partner, was shown to be gentle and gentle.
"Today is also the first match day of the third week. In the 5 o'clock match that just ended, EDG easily swept IG 2-0." Wawa was still informing the audience about the results of the last game. "Currently, IG still has no problem with the bottom lane.
It was resolved very well, and only Rookie was online in the entire team."
"If this continues, I can only say that IG's road will be more difficult this summer."
Miller echoed, "Yes, that's right. In the upcoming game, RNG, currently the top player in Group B, will face VG, which is ranked third!"
"This can also be called a focus battle. Both teams changed their ADC players in the summer. Uzi and Imp met in the finals of the S4 World Championship..."
The director also showed a close-up of the player seats of the two teams on the big screen.
The moment Uzi appeared in the camera, the packed audience suddenly burst into cheers!
As the champion of the Spring Split, RNG has also received strong reinforcements. Now it is gaining momentum and its popularity is at the top of the league!
In contrast, the number of VG fans is not large, and the outpouring of support has obviously slowed down.
When the camera shifted to Gu Xing, he looked relaxed and showed a bright smile.
Miller introduced to the audience, "VG jungler Virtue, this is an 18-year-old youngster, currently ranked number one in the national server, and has never had professional game experience before. This summer, he will appear in the club together with JackeyLove, who has previously appeared.
On the list.”
After learning about Gu Xing's appearance, I prepared some information, but other than the story of climbing to the top of Ionia, there really wasn't much to talk about.
As for the remaining breaking news about "Suppressing the opposing jungler for 80 dollars in trial training, which made imp say he was right", Miller could also guess that the protagonist was Gu Xing - after all, VG only has two junglers, and World6 is considered an experienced player.
Yes, it can be completely ruled out.
But his first reaction when he saw the news was that someone was making a prank.
Miller, like the vast majority of viewers, believes that it is impossible for the jungle position to command 80 dollars. This is the experience he has accumulated over many years of commentating and watching games.
So he simply didn't mention it.
But the audience in the live event room still remembers this incident.
80 dollars, so-and-so calling you right has become a famous meme on the forum recently, and there are endless arguments in the barrage.
[If the incense pot doesn’t charge him 80 dollars, let Uzi call him right?]
[Again, with RNG’s lineup, I don’t even know how to lose!]
[However, VG’s new jungler is quite good-looking, and his smile is so sunny]
[MLXG is known as Harry Potter, isn’t it bad? 】
[If Virtue can press the incense pot for 80 dollars today, I will eat five pounds of shit!]
Wawa also felt that the jungle matchup situation in this game was not optimistic. "Today, the rookie will face Xiangguo. For Virtue, it is a severe challenge, but also an opportunity for growth and progress..."
His tone was gentle.
Gu Xing, who was sitting in the player's seat, didn't know how the audience and commentators evaluated him. He was wearing sound-isolating headphones and could only faintly hear the noise from the audience, but he couldn't tell what people were saying.
"Xiao Gu, come into the room and get ready to start!" Brother Long reminded him.
Gu Xing quickly accepted the game invitation that popped up in the upper right corner of the client and entered the custom room named 'PB_LPL_RNG_VG_GAME1.1'.
PB is ‘Project Banana’, the abbreviation of Project Banana, followed by the name of the league and the two sides.
Game1.1 is the first room opening in the first game. If you encounter any BP problems or on-site bugs and need to restart the game, it will become Game1.2.
Mainly to facilitate referees to write reports after the game.
All five members of Gu Xing's VG team are on the right side of the room. The team did not have priority in selecting sides in this round, and was on the red side in the first round.
On the left side of the custom room, there are all RNG prefixes.
Two world champions Looper and Mata, Uzi who has entered the World Championship finals for two consecutive years, and the talented young boy Xiaohu who even defeated Faker alone in the mid-season...
As well as his direct opponent in this game, the Spicy Hotpot who is also in the Seven Wolves!
In the process of thinking, Imp had already started typing on the keyboard and exchanging greetings with his two old teammates.
The private server has been adjusted. Not only the text in the client and the game, but also the voice system can be switched to Korean, and chat and typing are no problem.
The three Koreans were chatting animatedly in the room, but Gu Xing did not interrupt.
He noticed that the spectator seats were no longer occupied by coaches from both sides like in training games.
Instead, they are OB01 to OB04, four backstage staff responsible for cutting the screen to the broadcast screen, and six accounts: LiveProducer (field producer) and HeadRef (chief referee).
"Check the equipment again," the referee reminded Gu Xing and others, "if it is confirmed to be correct, we will start."
"No problem, let's go, let's go!" Brother Long was eager to give it a try.
Gu Xing took a deep breath, adjusted his excitement, and prepared for the first game of his career!
A sonorous and powerful sound came from the earphones, and the customized room changed into competitive recruitment mode!
"RNG is on the blue side in this game. They came up and put Vampire on the ban position first," Miller followed the train of thought. "Vampire is also a hero that has been significantly reworked in the mid-season version. Now it is very strong and has a powerful attack effect."
French brush, very suitable for Easyhoon.”
Redmi did their homework before the game, so they banned Leopard Girl without much hesitation.
Today's Leopard Girl has dominated the jungle, and her high jungle clearing efficiency and flexibility have made her favored by professional teams.
Moreover, Mala Xiangguo has not changed his playing style yet. He is very good at roles such as Leopard Girl and Male Gun. If VG on the red side does not ban him, RNG will probably grab it.
"RNG's second ban slot is given to ice girl Lissandra," Miller laughed when he saw this. "It's very specific to Mr. Hou. He deserves to be the core of the VG team, and the treatment is quite luxurious!"
Although Easyhoon is famous as a brush hero and is known as the defensive tower in the middle, the audience's impression of him is that of an enhanced version of Ugos, who never leaves the line while grinding.
In fact, this is pure prejudice.
He also plays a roaming support role.
Ice Girl is his most commonly used roaming mid laner, and her proficiency is very high.
Currently, there are only three ban positions in the game. Giving Easyhoon two of them is already a sign of respect.
Hongmi knew that Ice Girl was very capable of restraining LeBlanc in the current version, and the opponent's mid laner Xiaohu had a good grasp of LeBlanc, the Trickery LeBlanc, so he chose to pin her to death.
The main reason is to prevent Xiaohu from frequently linking up with the Incense Pot after taking out the Enchantress to drive the rhythm of the game.
"RNG's last ban gave a small section of Thresh, while VG blocked the troll!"
Troll is still the nemesis of the front row in the current version, and it has certain single-band pulling ability, so it may be troublesome for Looper to get it.
Both teams have used up all their ban slots, and now it’s the blue team’s RNG turn to make the first choice.
Fly, the head coach of RNG, is also a Korean. He asked Xiangguo through a translator, "Do you think you need to grab the male spear?"
Graves is still a popular choice in the version, and his combat power is too strong.
"Hmm..." Mala Xiangguo thought for a moment, "Take it, I can carry it."
Although the opposite jungler is a newbie, it is just as he said before in the Seven Wolves.
It is impossible for oneself to underestimate the enemy and let him go.
"No problem, the male gun was chosen first," Wawa looked to the other side, "VG took out Ike and Bron!"
This version of Ekko is mainly used as a top laner. It does not require much magic power to deal decent percentage damage, and it is also very effective when facing tank heroes.
Unlike Troll, who simply restrains the front row role, Ekko is not very lethal to the front row in team battles. The main reason is that he has flexible characteristics and can rush into the back row to threaten the enemy's output.
To put it bluntly, he's a jerk.
"RNG got Sivir for Uzi and Niutou in the support position, and decided to hide the top and middle solo lane choices until the end." Miller saw that VG selected Lucian and understood Redmi's intention, "It looks like
VG’s bottom lane is going to put pressure on the lane, and they certainly don’t want Uzi to develop smoothly into the later stages.”
Wawa then said, "VG's fourth choice was to get the excavator Reksai, and they also want to focus on the early rhythm and try to speed up the whole team!"
"RNG's last two choices are Poppy and Syndra!" Miller's eyes lit up, "The two backhand heroes in the middle and top can perfectly deal with VG's forced group start!"
Hongmi was pacing behind the player bench, while discussing hero selection with his mid laner.
"If I choose the yellow chicken," Easyhoon looked at Gu Xing, "can you withstand the pressure in the jungle?"
The hero Desert Emperor basically cannot help the jungle in the early stage, so he just hangs in the lane and grinds.
He was afraid that the RNG midfielder would destroy Gu Xing's jungle area.
"It's okay, I won't touch the jungle with the opponent," Gu Xing thought for a moment, "You just have to choose."
Hongmi finally nodded and Xiao Duan helped lock down the Desert Emperor!
In the end, the lineups of both sides were determined.
Blue side RNG: top laner Poppy, jungler gunner, mid laner Syndra, bottom laner Sivir + Niutou.
Red side VG: Top laner Ekko, jungler Digger, mid laner Yellow Chicken, bottom lane Lucian + Braum.
"Gu Xing, just perform normally and show your strength in the training match," Hongmi pinched his shoulder, "It's just a regular season game, don't take winning or losing too seriously."
"Understood," Gu Xing flexed his fingers with a look of great anticipation, "Don't worry!"
Chapter completed!
