Chapter 371 I Don’t Want to Play the Fifth Game! Guan Zeyuan’s Final Stubbornness!
"This kind of double prediction is actually a psychological game. Many professional players have this ability." Zhihuan followed.
"Let's take a simple example. When dodging the hook of the robot or Thresh, most supports will hook back. At this time, if you walk straight forward, you can avoid the hook."
"This is the most common double prediction in professional competitions!"
"However, in actual operation, these things are often linked to mentality. After all, if the double prediction is played wrong, it will appear that kind of seemingly low-level mistakes!"
"People with a good mentality will not be nervous, will not have emotional fluctuations, and often have very clear thinking, and will frequently perform magical operations, such as Zhou Shen!"
"People with a bad mentality will be nervous when playing a game, and their minds will be in chaos, and outrageous operations will often come, such as..."
Zhihuan was really excited about this topic and talked a lot in one breath.
But when he got to this point, he finally reacted and stopped in time.
Even Zhihuan, who is quite bold in the commentary, did not dare to start a group in the commentary of the event and point out the problem of a player by name.
Since Zhihuan left such a blank in his words, the audience in the official live broadcast room of the event filled it with barrages.
[For example, Xiaohaiyoushen! ]
[Xiaohaiyoushen: Is it polite to you? ]
[For example, Qijiang! ]
[Don't be awkward, the factory manager had a very good mentality when playing in LPL, of course, it was another story during the S game, hehe! ]
[For example, Uzi! ]
[? ? ? You can say that? Brother, you are breaking the law! ]

Back to the game.
After Zhou Dian's Fiora crossed the tower and killed Rookie's Cassiopeia.
IG chose to return to the big dragon to defend the bottom lane high ground, which was just temporarily slowing down its pace towards death.
After killing the big dragon and all LGD members returned to the city to replenish equipment, Fiora came back with the big dragon buff.
With teammates involved in the middle lane, Zhou Dian easily demolished the exposed small crystal in IG's bottom lane.
Then, Fiora stared at IG's front teeth twin towers, and involved at least half of IG's defensive forces, causing the middle road high ground to be easily pushed down by LGD.
With two super soldiers pressing in and the blessing of the big dragon buff, IG's defense was in a mess.
At the 31st minute of the game, the five LGD players, with the invincible glory of the gem's ultimate move, rushed to IG's front teeth tower and played a wave of one for three.
Then the remaining four people demolished IG's front teeth twin towers and began to forcibly attack IG's main crystal.
"Then we should congratulate LGD!" Guan Zeyuan said loudly.
"Let's congratulate LGD for winning the third game of this BO5. The big score between the two sides has come to 2 to 1. LGD took the lead in getting the match point of this game!"
Winning the crucial third game and taking the match point first, Zhou Dian and his teammates were in a good mood.
Of course, Eimy seemed particularly excited.
On the way back to the backstage lounge, walking in the player channel, he kept talking to Zhou Dian.
In the third game of the just-concluded BO5, Eimy's Prince was also a major contributor to the victory.
In the early stage, he was better than Xiaohaiyoushen's tree.
The live broadcast director watched the players from both sides enter the player channel, and then cut back to the commentary seat.
"Congratulations to LGD again for winning the third game. Currently, there are two match points in hand. In this BO5 with IG, they have taken the lead." Guan Zeyuan said.
"Although this game lasted more than 30 minutes, the rhythm of the game was firmly in the hands of LGD from the beginning. Until LGD won this game, IG never took the initiative."
"Then what does Zhihuan think is the main problem of IG in this game?"
At this time, some highlights of the third game were being shown on the big screen on the scene.
Hearing Guan Zeyuan's words, Zhihuan replied: "In fact, IG didn't have any big problems in this game. The main reason is that compared with Xiaohai Youshen, Eimy played too well in this game."
"Eimy's game against Prince, from the unexpected jungle route at the beginning to several waves of counter-jungle catching, the early rhythm can be said to be perfect."
"After helping Fiora, this game was easy for LGD. From the mid-game Fiora's solo push, Zhou Shen's Fiora completely took over the game."
"In many past games, Zhou Shen has proved to us that heroes like Fiora and Qinggangying can be so terrifying in his hands once they develop ahead of time or even just develop well!"
"In this game, Zhou Shen has taken over the game since Fiora switched to the bottom lane solo push."
Finally, Zhihuan said: "In the recent versions, if we only talk about the top lane, I feel that only Zhou Shen can have such a great influence on the game trend in the game!"
"Teacher Zhihuan's evaluation is very accurate, and my opinion is similar." Guan Zeyuan followed.
Then he asked, "Who do you think will be the MVP of this game?"
"I think the MVP of this game should go to Eimy or Zhou Shen. The rhythm of Prince in the early stage is really good, so it's totally fine to give it to him." Zhihuan replied.
At this time, a half-length photo of Eimy appeared on the big screen.
The MVP of the third game of this semi-final BO5 was given to Eimy's Prince.
"The MVP of the third game was given to Prince, congratulations to Eimy."
"Well, let's take a break, dear audience, and we will bring you the fourth game between the two teams later!"
Backstage at the venue, in the IG lounge.
The atmosphere was a little stiff.
The two people who were replaced in the third game, TheShy had no expression, and no emotional fluctuations.
On the contrary, Ning Wang leaned on the sofa, spread his hands, and his expression looked strange.
If the coach had not told him in advance before the players on the field came back that he would be replaced in the jungle position in the fourth game, Ning Wang would probably ask the coach to replace the jungler in front of Xiaohai Youshen.
With Ning Wang's personality, he can do such a thing!
As soon as Xiaohai Youshen returned to the lounge, he first walked to the table and took a tissue to wipe the sweat off his fat face.
Then he found a seat and sat down.
The IG coach not far away remembered Xiaohai Youshen's sleepwalking performance in the third game that just ended, and wanted to scold Xiaohai Youshen.
But then he thought, if he didn't send him up, wouldn't there be nothing wrong!
Forget it, forget it!
In fact, this is just an excuse for himself. The main reason is that he is worried about the presence of IG manager Su Xiaoluo, so he can't complain about Xiaohai Youshen, the IG veteran and "relative".
For so many years, no matter how Xiaohai Youshen plays, he is always the main player in IG.
Before the start of the summer season, anyone can see that Xiaohai Youshen, the jungler, is already the biggest shortcoming of IG.
So Ning Wang wanted to come to IG to play jungle, but IG manager Su Xiaoluo didn't want it.
If Ning Wang hadn't done a trick that allowed him to play the game without salary, IG's main jungler would probably still be Xiaohai Youshen.
After Ning Wang came to IG, he quickly squeezed out Xiaohai Youshen's main jungler position and put him on the bench.
In the second game of today's BO5, Ning Wang did not play very well, and he also made a stupid operation that killed his teammates.
But it was not entirely the coach's opinion that replaced him in the third game.
In fact, there are very few e-sports clubs where the coach has the final say on game matters.
Most club managers are not easy to deal with, always wanting to show off some tricks, such as EDG's San Shao and Snake's Zuo Wu.
It is not a good thing for a manager to have too strong a presence and too strong a desire to perform.
However, Xiaohai Youshen's performance in the third game was completely useless even if you were given a chance!
Therefore, in the upcoming fourth game of BO5, IG's head coach will replace Ning Wang, and Su Xiaoluo can't even say a word.
Not far away, in LGD's lounge.
The atmosphere was harmonious.
E-sports is so real, as long as you can win the game, it's called harmony.
After Dgc discussed with the players, he already had some ideas about the fourth game.
The break between games passed quickly, and the LGD players stood together and shouted "Come on" twice as usual.
Before leaving for the main stage of the game, Zhou Dian said with a smile: "Brothers, this is the game, take down IG directly, I don't want to play the fifth game!"
"You don't want to, and I don't want to either!" PYL said with a smile next to him.
"Brother Zhou, I don't want to either!" Eimy followed.
"Okay, okay, let's finish early, I want to light some mosquito coils!" imp shouted with a big tongue.
"Okay, everyone, welcome back to the 2017 LPL Summer Playoffs semi-finals!"
"What we are about to bring to you is the fourth game of the semi-final BO5 between LGD and IG."
"After the first three games, LGD temporarily leads IG with a score of 2 to 1, holding two match points."
"In this fourth game, will LGD win three games in a row and advance to the semi-finals, or will IG win and drag the BO5 into the final game?"
Hearing Guan Zeyuan's opening remarks, Zhihuan followed up and said: "I think IG is in trouble today. The players are changing back and forth, and it feels a bit messy!"
"Hey~ there is a trend!" Guan Zeyuan deliberately prolonged the tail tone, obviously agreeing with Zhihuan's point of view.
"I'd like to inform you that IG has made another personnel adjustment in the fourth game."
"Duke and Xiaohai Youshen, who played in the third game, were replaced by TheShy and Ning in the fourth game. It was an adjustment in the top and jungle positions."
Hearing that IG had replaced two players in one go, Zhihuan shrugged and said, "I don't think there is any need for IG to change players at all!"
"They shouldn't have changed in the third game. This is a sign of lack of self-confidence."
"You keep changing up and down in a short period of time like this, which has a great impact on the players' mentality. In this case, I am more optimistic about LGD in the fourth game!"
At this time, the headsets of several commentators also received a notice from the on-site director, and the players on the field were ready.
"Okay, no more idle talk, the BP of the fourth game of this BO5 is about to begin!"
Before the BP of the fourth game of BO5 began, the camera gradually scanned the players on the field.
On the IG side, several players seemed to have a hint of nervousness and uneasiness on their faces without much expression.
There was basically no one talking in the team voice, just quietly waiting for the BP to start, only Ning Wang occasionally said a few words.
On the LGD side, imp was shaking his legs alone.
PYL, GodV, and Eimy were constantly talking to each other, and would burst into laughter from time to time.
As for Zhou Dian, he leaned back in his chair, his hands hanging down at his sides, his eyes slightly closed, and his expression was extremely relaxed.
"Just looking at the expressions of the players, it seems that the LGD players are much more relaxed." Guan Zeyuan said, "After all, getting the match point first is a real psychological advantage."
At this time, the screen on the scene also switched from the real-time camera of the players to the BP interface.
"Okay, let's see the BP of the fourth game!"
"In the fourth game, IG has the right to choose the side. They took the initiative to choose the red side, and LGD is on the blue side!"
"IG took the initiative to choose the red side in this game. I feel that they need to restrict Zhou Shen. They can't let him get the counter position so comfortably." Zhihuan said.
Guan Zeyuan nodded, and then said: "And TheShy is also a very strong top laner. I wonder if the counter position on the fifth floor will be left to him after IG took the initiative to choose the red side in this game?"
BP begins.
The first round of BP.
LGD banned Rumble, Tristana, and Gragas.
IG banned Rakan, Thresh, and Spider Queen.
IG once again did not ban Skateboard Shoes, and chose to open the two strongest ADs now, Skateboard Shoes and Kog'Maw.
"In this case, Kog'Maw and Kalista are both released. I wonder which one LGD will choose to grab on the first floor of the blue side?" Guan Zeyuan said.
On the LGD side, imp chose Kog'Maw.
Imp felt that if he got Kog'Maw, he would not be inferior to Skateboard Shoes at all.
What's more, IG has banned Skateboard Shoes' best partner - Thresh.
Of course, there is another reason that IG took the initiative to choose red in this game, and they must want to do something against Zhou Dian in the top lane.
At this time, LGD decisively shifted its focus to the bottom lane.
Then the bottom lane must choose a hero with stronger late-stage output ability.
So, LGD directly locked Kog'Maw on the first floor of the blue side.
"Oh, LGD took Kog'Maw directly on the first floor, so IG's AD position is probably Kalista, one for each player!"
"Generally speaking, Rat is not bad, Rat is the best counter to Kog'Maw." Zhihuan said, "But West has basically never taken Rat, Rat is a bit weak in laning."
Afterwards, IG took Prince on the first floor of the red side.
"IG chose to take Prince first, Prince should be a jungler, it seems unlikely to be a top laner, as for Kalista, there is no need to rush, you can leave it for the third hand." Guan Zeyuan said.
"Huh, Ashe?"
"This hero has not been released many times in recent versions, except for Suning's AD player Fury who likes to take Ashe, other players rarely take this hero."
"And, are you really not going to choose Skateboard Shoes?"
"Locked! It's really Ashe! IG is facing elimination, is it going to make a surprise move?"
The hero Ashe has laning strength, and can also use the ultimate to draw a lottery to start a team fight.
But whether it is Ashe or Skateboard Shoes, IG could have chosen them in the third hand.
Now they are picked up on the second floor, the only purpose is naturally to hide a support, waiting for LGD to play the support first.
Dgc naturally saw that IG should have some secret weapon in the support position.
But he chose to remain unchanged in the face of change.
You want me to play the support first, right?
Well, I will do as you wish.
LGD picked Lulu on the second floor of the blue side.
Seeing this, Guan Zeyuan said: "LGD, no matter what bottom lane combination you IG want to make, I will directly take the Big Mouth Lulu combination in my hand!"
Then, LGD took the excavator on the third floor of the blue side.
It was IG's turn to choose on the third floor. The focus of the discussion of several commentators at this time was naturally what support IG would choose to match Ashe.
Theoretically, supports with high burst at level 6 are easy to match with Ashe.
The most suitable ones are Robot and Bard.
Guan Zeyuan firmly believed that IG would choose Bard as support, and play a bottom lane combination of Bard and Ashe's double ultimates.
However, IG hesitated until the last second of the countdown to choose a player, and still did not choose a support, but took Corki on the third floor of the red side.
"Well, IG can choose Corki first, otherwise LGD may ban Corki in the second round!"
Several commentators talked about support for a long time, and IG chose a mid laner. Rita quickly changed the topic.
"Since Corki was selected first, IG may have to ban some mid laners in the second round." Zhihuan said.
"Oh, IG banned Leblanc! No problem, Leblanc is really easy to beat Corki."
"I think LGD can really consider banning Bard." Guan Zeyuan mentioned Bard again.
He was fighting with Bard in this game.
After IG banned Leblanc, LGD banned Robot in the fourth hand.
"That's right, Robot and Bard, ban them all!" Guan Zeyuan felt that he had guessed the BP correctly, and his tone was a little excited.
Then, IG banned Cassiopeia in the fifth hand, and it was LGD's turn to ban the last one.
"Really, I think LGD can really ban Bard!" Guan Zeyuan emphasized Bard again.
"This combination of Bard and Ashe is quite powerful. It is very useful when fighting against ADs like Kog'Maw who have no displacement!"
Guan Zeyuan couldn't avoid Bard in this game.
"The probability of banning Bard is still relatively high." Zhihuan also echoed.
As a result, LGD chose to ban Kennen in the last hand.
Banned Kennen, the support that IG used in the first game.
Then, IG selected Brand as the support on the fourth floor of the red side.
Neither side managed the hero Bard.
This ban and selection seemed to slap Guan Zeyuan, who was talking about his understanding of the game.
The air around the commentary seat suddenly became a little stiff.
"Brand is good. It has consumption in the early stage and burst at level 6." Zhihuan said.
"IG's bottom lane combination is completely unforgiving, right! This bottom lane combination will fight you to the end!" Guan Zeyuan followed.
IG did not choose Bard as the support as he thought, so Guan Zeyuan had to forcefully complain about the shortcomings of Brand as the support.
This was his last stubbornness.
