Remember: "In the end, SKT chose Gnar, so Li Ge will be the one to handle Urgot. Gnar has not appeared in LCK for a long time since he was chosen by CuVee in last year's summer tournament."
Ze Yuan: "As a top laner, this hero has been forgotten by us. Let's see how he performs in Li Xu's hands."
Uzi: "I feel that Gnar is a good choice against Cheyenne. Although Gnar is very fragile in the early game, this hero's ability to suppress melee tanks is undeniable. Let's see how they perform in the team battle."
In the end, the lineups of both sides were confirmed.
Blue Team GRF:
Top Laner: Sword (Undead God of War, Cheyenne)
Jungler: Tarzan (Dark Swordsman, Atokus)
Mid Laner: Chovy (Frost Witch, Lissandra)
ADC: Viper (Lady of the Void, Kesha)
Support: Lehends (Heart of Freerchord, Bron)
Red Team SKT:
Top Laner: KING (Tooth of Loss, Gnar)
Jungler: Clid (Berserker, Olaf)
Mid Laner: FAKER (Dreadnought Tank, Urgot)
ADC: Teddy (Mechanic's Pioneer, Victor)
Support: MATA (King of the River, Tam)
Gnar was once a popular top laner hero. He had both long-range and melee forms. The long-range form was an AD hero who could move nimbly, and his ability to consume and suppress damage was very strong. The melee form was a warrior who could burst and control, and his ability to fight in a team battle was very strong.
However, because Gnar's dual forms were not as controllable as Jess and Spider, it could be said that Gnar's Rage was the hardest to control among all the Rage heroes.
The Rage requirement was too strict. The battlefield was constantly changing, and a team battle could erupt at any time. This made it difficult for Gnar to control his Rage, causing his appearance in the competition to become lower and lower. On the other hand, heroes like Cheyenne, who had a stable ability to start a team battle, gradually became the mainstream.
In the current version, Gnar was too fragile in the early game. If he was facing heroes like Kenji or Dao Mei, he would be easily pinned to the ground if he made a single mistake in the early game.
However, facing Sean, Li Xu was very confident that he could still hold an advantage against a tank like Sean.
Li Xu's strong attack led Gnar straight out of Doran's Blade's Red Medicine. He was determined to suppress Cheyenne on the line.
At level one, after Li Xu hit Cheyenne with a Boomerang, Cheyenne of Sword immediately used Skill E to kick a small soldier over. Li Xu retreated, not giving Cheyenne a chance to attack him. In the early game, small Gnar was too fragile. He would not be able to withstand two hits from Li Xu.
Later on, Li Xu became very careful. He constantly paid attention to dodging Cheyenne's E skill. After reaching Level 2, he learned W skill.
Little Nar's W skill was similar to Vayne's. After hitting the third circle, it would trigger additional magic damage based on the opponent's maximum HP. This was also Little Nar's advantage when facing tank heroes.
Big Nar's W skill was a control skill that could stun the enemy in front of him for 1.25 seconds.
When he reached Level 2, Li Xu's Gnar happened to be full of Rage. He turned into a giant Gnar and threw a rock at the minions, hitting both Cheyenne and the minions.
Cheyenne's E skill had slowed him down to Narr's level, and Li Xu had started to charge up his Brutal Bash. Li Xu had directly used Brutal Bash to knock Cheyenne unconscious. Then, he turned around and left, waiting for himself to become smaller.
Gnar, the hero, had never relied on growing bigger to engage in hand-to-hand combat when facing the suppression of tanks on the frontline.
After turning small, Li Xu's Gnar started to attack Cheyenne. Although small Gnar's hands were shorter in the early game, as long as he was not slowed by Cheyenne's E skill, the clumsy Cheyenne could not do anything to him.
After hitting the second circle, Cheyenne retreated. Li Xu did not chase after him to hit the third circle.
First of all, chasing after him to attract the minions' aggro and being slowed by Cheyenne's E skill would be very damaging. Second of all, the opposite jungler's movement was unclear. Gnar did not even have E skill and was very afraid of being ganked.
Li Xu used normal attacks to attack Cheyenne from time to time. In order to avoid pushing the line, Li Xu tried his best not to use Q skill to deplete his health.
When Li Jiu reached level three, Clid's Olaf had reached the upper half of the jungle. Li Jiu had started to suppress Cheyenne's HP. With the Light Jump from his E skill, it was very difficult for Cheyenne's skills to hit Gnar.
Li Xu did not attack Cheyenne immediately while Cheyenne was charging up his skills. He consciously waited for Cheyenne to charge up his skills before pushing the line.
When Cheyenne's Q skill was used to clear the minions, Li Xu directly used his Boomerang to slow down Cheyenne. He caught up with him and hit the third circle to break Cheyenne's shield. Then, he used a normal attack to trigger a strong attack.
Cheyenne turned around and used Killer Roar. Li Xu reacted quickly. He directly used the blue long-range minions in front of him as a springboard and used E skill to dodge Cheyenne's slow down. Then, he jumped behind Cheyenne.
Taking advantage of the extra attack speed and strong attack effect provided by E skill, Li Xu quickly caught up with the blue tower and hit the third circle. Cheyenne's health was reduced to less than half.
At this time, Cheyenne's Gank was almost full. Moreover, Sword Demon had been spotted in the upper river. Li Xu immediately retreated and controlled the minions. However, he did not attack the minions. He waited for them to leave the battle and his Gank slowly decreased.
Cheyenne of Sword did not return. He hid behind and took potions to recover his health. He looked like he was ready to attack.
Clid's Olaf had finished clearing the jungle. He was ready to attack Cheyenne together with Gnar. However, just as he walked to the bushes near the river, he was illuminated by the Divination Flower that Sword Demon had killed in the jungle. Clid could only retreat resentfully.
However, while he was retreating and waiting for the Divination Flower's vision to disappear, Clid immediately sneaked back and attacked.
Remember: "Clid is so sneaky. When the Divination Flower's effect disappeared, he sneaked back again. He's still looking for a chance to attack Cheyenne of Sword."
Ze Yuan: "Cheyenne did not realize the danger. However, Tarzan sent a signal after killing the three wolves. He was also rushing to the top lane. He seemed to have realized it."
Cheyenne finally could not hold back. Even though the minions were closer to the red side, he took advantage of the fact that Sword Demon was behind him. He walked forward and used E skill to kill the red minions from afar.
Li Xu's Little Gnar immediately used E skill and jumped toward Cheyenne using the blue side's long-range minions as a springboard.
At the same time when he jumped onto the minions, Li Xu's Little Gnar threw a boomerang to slow Cheyenne. Then, Gnar's second E skill landed on Cheyenne's body. He caught the boomerang and attacked with three circles of normal attacks.
Not good! There's someone behind me!
Sword's heart skipped a beat. Since Little Gnar dared to jump directly into his face, he would not believe that there was no one behind him.
As expected, Olaf directly rushed up from the bushes near the river.
Sword glanced at Sword Demon's position. He was still rushing toward the top lane from Toad. By the time he arrived, he would be dead.
Bam!
Sword decisively used Flash and retreated.
