After winning the first match, the atmosphere in the training room was very relaxed.
"I've been farming in the wild for more than twenty minutes, and I won just like that?"
"Li Xu, your Kiana is not bad, she's a god."
"It's only been two days, your mastery level is very high."
Li Xu was very humble in the face of his teammates' praise. "You flatter me, you flatter me. My Kiana is actually very average, it's Smeb's Jayce that's not good enough. If I played Jayce, I definitely wouldn't let the opponent run away."
Both parties' lineups were not very good at going against the wind. Jayce's equipment and level were inferior, and the cannon did not hurt him at all. The Little Witch tried to steal damage twice, but she was caught and counter-attacked. Without one of their own, BDD did not dare to steal damage anymore.
Under such circumstances, SKT's double assassin lineups could not stop snowballing, and it would only become harder for KT to fight. SKT won every round they fought. As long as Li Xu did not lead Li Ge to continuously kill them, it was only natural that they would win the match.
After a short break, the second match began.
This time, SKT went to the blue side, while KT went to the red side.
In a match, the blue side would usually target their players with bans, while the red side would take up the ban position of the strong heroes.
Relatively speaking, the blue side had the advantage in the ban phase, but in the selection phase, the red side's last counter was worth a lot of money.
The blue side SKT first banned Pig Girl.
The red side KT immediately banned Kiana. In the previous match, Kiana gave them too much pressure, and Jayce could not give her any pressure at all. He could only watch as Kiana ran around.
Of course, it was not that Smeb did not try to pressure Kiana in the lane, but the result was that Kiana almost killed him.
Many LCK coaches were like this. In the previous match, when a hero gave them too much pressure and they felt that it was not easy to deal with, they would immediately ban them in the next match. They would not even consider what tactics to use to solve the problem, and would directly eliminate their opponent.
Of course, there were also stubborn coaches. For example, Griffin's coach was a stubborn one. If he lost, it was because the players did not play well, and the same lineup would be rearranged.
Li Xu saw that the opposing team had banned Kiana first and grinned. "It's done. Kiana, 100% BP rate. She's going to be one of the most popular heroes in the new season."
Li Ge was a little disappointed. "Why ban Kiana? I want to play too. "
Li Xu suggested, "Since Kiana is gone, Li Ge, you can play Kitty. He's also a new hero, but I don't know if the opponent will ban him."
Upon hearing this, Li Ge turned his head and gave Li Xu a sharp look.
You want me to take Youmi? Little brat, do you want me to die?
SKT's second BAN was given to Sword Magician. Why did the blue team ban Sword Magician? It was because Li Xu said that he did not want to play.
Li Xu's original words were, "1v5 is too boring. I want to beat all five of them when I get Sword Magician."
The four teammates, including the coach, turned their heads away at the same time. It had to be said that Li Xu was very good at messing with the mentality of his teammates.
The red team KT's second BAN was given to Dao Mei. After the MSI match, it would be hard to see Li Xu's Dao Mei for a while. They did not even want to give him a mock match.
Of course, if the designers considered removing Dao Mei, there was still hope for Li Xu to get Dao Mei.
The blue team's third BAN was given to Akali. BDD's Akali was very strong, so she was worthy of a BAN.
Akali's hero was continuously being nerfed after the redesign. Although she did not look strong in a normal match, she was still ridiculously strong in a professional match.
There was no other way, the mechanics were there. Akali's exaggerated BP and win rate in the MSI match would give the designers a headache for a long time. They would have to think about how to continue nerfing her.
The red team's third BAN was given to Youmi. They still did not want to release this rascal.
KT's first round of BP did not target Clid's hero pool. After all, it was a mock match, so the main purpose was to train the lineup.
Of course, it could also be because the previous round did not have a good effect on Clid. Li Xu suddenly started to wander around, which was something that no one expected.
Thus, Li Xu directly locked Blind Monk on the first floor and let Clid have some fun.
"It's my turn to perform!"
Clid rubbed his hands. He had farmed the entire match in the previous round, so he was about to die of depression.
Li Xu: "Do you want me to pick Green Steel Shadow? Uplink combo, guaranteed win. "
Clid thought for a while. "No, Green Steel Shadow likes to hit people's heads. Go for Karma."
Li Xu: "…"
The red team backhandedly locked Ryze and Titan.
SKT locked Charlo's duo. KT's third choice was Kesha. Titan had already been chosen. If Kesha did not take it, she would definitely be banned in the second round.
In the second round, SKT targeted the jungler and banned Princes and Excavator. KT banned Silas and Ice Lady.
KT first chose Olaf as the jungler, leaving the counter position for the top laner.
Jin Zhengxun: "What do you two think?"
Li Ge thought for a while. "Give me Green Steel Shadow. His wandering ability in the mid lane is very strong. His support won't be much slower than Ryze's."
Green Steel Shadow's mid lane was very popular in Rank recently. Li Ge had also practiced a lot. The mid lane could maximize Green Steel Shadow's support ability and cooperate well with his teammates.
Of course, Green Steel Shadow was completely forced to go to the mid lane. The designer's constant adjustments made Green Steel Shadow's strength in the top lane was not enough. The jungler spawned slowly, so he could only go to the mid lane to find a second chance.
Except for Li Xu, almost no professional player would pick Green Steel Shadow as the top lane in the latest version.
Li Xu glanced at Clid. "I didn't pick Green Steel Shadow, but Li Ge did. Be careful, he'll hit you."
Clid: "…"
Jin Zhengxun: "Don't be naughty. Li Xu, what do you think of Victor? The lineup needs more AP damage, and Victor has a certain level of calmness. "
Li Xu could not take it. "Don't! Victor is not fun. There are other AP heroes. How about giving me Little Murloc? "
"Little Murloc? You know how to play top laner? Are you a half tank? "
Jin Zhengxun was surprised. What did Li Xu play in the top lane?
Top lane Little Murloc had appeared in previous games, but that was under very special circumstances. In the current version of the game, even the mid lane Little Murloc couldn't be seen, let alone top lane Little Murloc.
"What's the point of an AP hero with a half tank?"
Li Jiu shook his head. "Of course I'm an AP player. One fork for one kid."
MATA: "Hurry up, hurry up, there's no time."
"Forget it, lock him first. Let's see what the opponent's last move is. If it doesn't work, let Xiang He change with him. Let him take Green Steel Shadow."
So Little Murloc was also locked.
On KT's side, obviously no one would think that Little Murloc was the top lane, and they were still discussing the choice of top lane heroes.
"Jing Hao, who do you think is good to beat Green Steel Shadow?"
"Give me Jax. If Li Xu shows off again, I don't believe he can beat my Jax."
