The second round of BP began.
Seeing that SKT's first three players were weak in terms of damage output, the red team banned Tsar first.
On the other hand, SKT first banned Verus. Under Tam's protection, Verus's ability in the lane was indeed very strong. He could also provide the ability to initiate attacks, so he deserved to be banned.
In the end, the red team sent Qing Gang Ying to the BANNED position. This hero could be considered to be above average in SKT. Moreover, his ability to gank together with Pig Girl was too strong. In the situation where the blue team's heroes had not been selected, GEN G chose to directly ban him.
The blue team gave the last BAN to Gnar. CuVee's two most unique solo heroes, Kenan on the left hand and Gnar on the right, were both banned.
In the second round, GEN G chose to ban Captain, which was CuVee's signature move.
The blue team did not hesitate to ban Nicho.
Ze Yuan: "Nicho was not banned in this match. In fact, in recent matches, many teams have not chosen to ban Li Ge's mid laner Nicho. He is too good at finding opportunities to enter the game, and there is still a possibility that Nicho will be swayed."
Eleven: "If it is mid laner Nicho, then SKT will need a warrior with high damage output in the top lane. Li Ge's Nicho is all about the ice buff."
The blue team's last choice was Rui Wen, but they did not choose to ban her.
Ze Yuan: "Rui Wen? Are you serious? In Version 9.14, Rui Wen's win rate is very high, but this hero's margin for error is very low. The opposing team will not give Rui Wen a chance to enter the game. "
Cat: "Rui Wen can be used to fight Captain, but according to the opposing team's lineup, unless her teammates can create good opportunities, it will be very difficult for Rui Wen to enter the game. This is not a good choice."
Eleven: "Of course, it is not surprising that SKT chose to ban Rui Wen. Li Xu is very good at this kind of hero."
Li Xu and Jin Zhengxun discussed for a long time, but in the end, they gave up on Rui Wen and switched to Sword Magician.
In Version 9.14, Sword Demon's resurrection effect had also been removed by Fist. However, the basic HP recovery, the CD of Ultimate Skills, and the lifesteal effect had all been increased. With this change, Sword Demon's Korean server's win rate had increased instead of decreased.
Indeed, the reason why Sword Demon was so strong was not because of the resurrection mechanism of his ultimate move. It was just that without resurrection, the margin for error was much lower. However, the influence of the first wave of players entering the arena had increased by a lot.
The red team's last choice was very unexpected. It was the Zither Girl.
Ze Yuan: "Zither girl? GEN G has chosen the system of Zither Lady and Tam. This is also the only non-traditional AD hero that Ruler has used this season. However, GEN G's lineup doesn't seem to have enough damage. "
Cat: "But look, the damage on the left side isn't enough. Gen · G's fault tolerance is very high, and EZ will be powerless against Zither Girl."
Both sides had chosen their lineups.
Blue SKT:
Top Laner: King (Dark Swordsman, Yatokus)
Jungler: Clid (Wrath of the North, Sejuani)
Mid Laner: FAKER (Mystic Flower, Nicho)
ADC: Teddy (Explorer, Izrael)
Support: MATA (Heart of Freerchord, Bron)
Red Side GEN · G:
Top Laner: CuVee (Ocean's Disaster, Planck)
Jungler: Peanut (Troll King, Trandel)
Mid Laner: Fly (Radiant Lady, Lux)
ADC: Ruler (Zither Fairy, Sauna)
Support: Life (River's King, Tam)
Ze Yuan: "From the looks of it, Clid is in a bit of an awkward situation. The duo of Zither Lady and Tam can't make a move at all. The mid laner Lux is also difficult to make a move on. Only the top laner has a chance."
Cat: "The top laner does have a chance to make a move on the captain, but the other side definitely knows that you will go to the top. Once the Trolls get to you, you will explode."
Eleven: "Both sides' lineups are actually quite slow. I think GEN G still has the advantage when it comes to development. After all, their fault tolerance is too high, and they also have a captain who is very strong in the late game."
Cat: "Little Peanut's mission for this round is very simple. He doesn't have to do anything. As long as he finds Clid's position in the jungle, his teammates won't have any pressure on him. As long as he develops, his lineups will still be better than the other side."
Ze Yuan: "That's true. Although GEN G's third line development ability is very strong, don't forget that Li Xu often explodes his opponents in the lane. CuVee might not be able to withstand it."
Cat: "Let's not talk about healing at this time. We are objectively analyzing the situation. Aren't you looking down on CuVee too much by discussing the 1v1 situation on the side lane?"
"Senior Colonel still doesn't forget to heal at this time. How despicable."
"Why do I feel like Senior Colonel isn't healing? To be honest, there are quite a few 1v1s that were blown up by Li Xu, okay?"
"As long as the captain is careful, he won't blow up so easily. This hero's ability to withstand pressure is explosive."
"Don't think that Senior Colonel is laughing happily now. When CuVee really explodes later, he won't be able to laugh anymore."
"Li Xu's Sword Demon seems to be the first hero to get a pentakill, right?"
"It's coming, it's coming. Xu Ge, go back to your original self."
… …
In terms of talents, Li Xu chose the main talent: Electrocution, Taste of Blood, Eye Collector, Greedy Hunter. His secondary talent: Bone Plating, Wind of Recovery.
Against the captain, Li Xu's Sword Demon chose the more explosive Electrocution instead of the Conqueror which was a continuous battle. After all, the other side definitely wouldn't let him kill the Conqueror.
Both sides went out of the door and stood in a 5-star formation. Each of them controlled their vision and started the game peacefully.
On the top lane, Sword Demon revealed himself, and the captain shot over from afar. Li Xu ignored him and killed the low health soldier with a backhand.
After the captain finished off the low health soldier with a basic attack, he shot over again. As usual, Li Xu ignored him and used a basic attack to pull the low health soldier back by two steps.
After two seconds, the captain moved forward. Evidently, he wanted to shoot the third round of gunfire to negotiate.
Just when the captain raised his gun, Li Xu's Sword Demon turned around and slashed down.
When the captain released gunfire to negotiate, there would be a rather obvious movement. The captain who had just finished shooting wasn't able to dodge in time and was sent flying by the tip of a dark blade.
With three shots, the captain reduced Sword Demon's health to two-thirds. However, Li Xu didn't panic. With Sword Demon's recovery ability, he didn't need to worry about this small amount of health.
In the instant that the first part of the Q hit, Li Xu took a step forward and used the second part of the Q.
The angle of Li Xu's second part of the blade wasn't directly towards the captain. Instead, it was diagonally towards the captain.
The shape of the three parts of Sword Demon's blade was different. The first part of the Q was rectangular, while the third part was circular. Only the second part of the Q's blade had an irregular shape. It looked like an arc, but in reality, it wasn't a regular arc. It was more like an axe.
This also caused Sword Demon's second part of the Q's attack range to be unequal. The front part of the Q's blade was the closest, while the two sides could be further apart.
Coincidentally, the captain took a step back. Just as he was about to leave the range of Sword Demon's second part of the Q, he was sent flying by the edge of the blade. Sword Demon held his greatsword and rushed towards the captain.
In the current patch, every time Sword Demon's normal attack hit the enemy, it would reduce the cooldown of the passive by 2 seconds. When the blade hit the enemy, it would reduce the cooldown of the passive by 4 seconds. Li Xu's passive was already prepared.
After taking two blades in a row, the captain's health dropped even lower than Sword Demon's. After landing, he hurriedly ran backwards. When the Q's cooldown was over, he turned around and fired another shot, triggering the recovery ability of Indestructible Grasp.
After firing four consecutive shots, CuVee emptied the captain's blue tank.
