Chapter 481 Psychological warfare
"You can't say that!" Abramovich corrected with a smile, "At least the fact that LTG team was able to beat SKT team so smoothly today is partly due to us!"
Having worked as a sparring partner for the LTG team for a whole week despite a 13-hour time difference, Abu said this with a clear conscience!
"Then if the LTG team wins the championship this year, doesn't it mean that our EDG team is also one of the best in this year's global finals? At least it is better than the G2 team!"
"Yes, that's right! I heard Liu Qingqing say that the G2 team's training matches were extremely stretched, and they didn't want to play training matches with the G2 team at all, so they found us as sparring partners!"
"Guigui! The G2 team is still the top four in the World Championship. If you put it this way, then we..."
There was a burst of silly laughter in the EDG team training room.
As a team that unfortunately failed to enter the global finals, the EDG team fell into deep self-reflection at the end of the LPL playoffs, especially when competing for the last World Championship card in the LPL.
This was especially true when we lost to the IG team in an upset when buying tickets!
Many people are even disheartened and have the idea of leaving the team!
The training room of the EDG team is very hard, it can be said to be very hard!
But the problem is that training so hard failed to get the results they expected, which directly made them doubt the entire team!
What is the purpose of making such a comeback this season?
No one can tell!
There is no performance in e-sports, so what’s the point of training for sixteen hours a day?
However, after more than a week of training with the LTG team, not only the LTG team, but also the EDG team themselves have gained more!
The most important point among them is that after stripping away links such as banpick and pure hard power, they are actually not inferior to the LTG team!
Of course, the top laner of the LTG team also left a deep impression on all of them during this period!
But after excluding the top laner Wang, they actually have no disadvantage at all in their confrontation with the other four members of the LTG team!
On the contrary, it is more often that you have the advantage!
After playing this back and forth twice, the EDG team's self-confidence was instantly restored!
The self-doubts that once existed have gradually disappeared, and everyone has become more confident!
The team that was about to be separated once again reunited!
Abu sees all these things!
This is one of the reasons why Abramovich agreed to the sparring plan with the LTG team.
Being able to train with a stronger team is also an upward dimension for themselves!
At least now, the entire EDG team, from top to bottom, believes that if they can reach the global finals next year, they will also have the strength to win the championship!
This is the most valuable thing for a team that has just experienced a disastrous defeat!
Hope is always the best belief for professional players to make progress!
The screen changes again.
New York, USA.
Madison Square Garden.
The scene of the 2016 League of Legends Global Finals.
In the temporary lounge of the LTG team.
The LTG team that won the match point game sat in a circle and quickly reviewed the previous game under the leadership of coach Jin.
"...In the last game, it wasn't how well we played, but the obvious mistakes made by the opponent! We absolutely can't expect our opponents to show off against us in the next game!"
Mr. Wang, as a person who has personally experienced various impetuous operations by Brother Li on the opposite side, spoke carefully: "I feel that the mentality of the opponent's mid laner has actually changed a bit. Can we rely on this to open up the situation in the next game?
?”
"You mean we will attack their mid laner in the next game?" Coach Jin pinched his double chin and thought for a moment. Then he shook his head and said, "No need! We have match point now? There is no need to fight.
Too anxious! Quite the opposite! It’s them who should be anxious at this point in time! So, my idea is? In the next game, we choose a more stable defensive counterattack lineup? Directly withstand the opponent’s early game
Attacking rhythm, and then winning the whole game cleanly in the late team battle!"
"Um...Coach, you mean, we'll do business operations in the next game?" Liu Qingliang heard something interesting.
Coach Jin nodded and affirmed: "That's right? In the next game, we will play a serious operation game!"
Just like what the outside world said.
Coach Jin is from the Samsung team, a famous team in the Korean competition area? He is very good at the Korean style of operation and play!
Even when he first joined the LTG team, his original idea was to turn the LTG team into a stable operating team.
But later, due to Alisa's protection of Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang's own dazzling strength, Coach Jin had to temporarily change his mind and directly lead the team to change to a fierce fighting style of early attack.
But this does not mean that the LTG team really will not play the operation game!
Coach Jin is here to take charge? Although the LTG team has not shown much of their operational style of play in the game, the operational style of play is the one they are most familiar with except for the early rhythm!
Just like in the second half of the last game, the LTG team didn't make any aggressive advances after gaining the advantage in the front? It used its huge advantage to completely crush the SKT team to death step by step!
And in the process of operating the army line, they went up and down one after another, showing their familiarity with this style of play!
"Playing operations? Maybe we can't beat the SKT team, right?"
"That's right! The team has been around for many years, and the games we have managed alone are more than the training games we have played..."
Leng Shao and Shijie Liu said worriedly.
Coach Jin turned around and asked a question to the two of them: "Suppose now that you two are defeated 2-0, and as soon as the third game comes, the opponent chooses a team battle lineup that is invincible in the late stage.
What should you two do?"
"Well……"
Leng Shao and Shijie Liu looked at each other, and then said somewhat unconfidently: "Capture their core position?"
"Targeted, right?"
Mr. Leng nodded.
"But have you ever thought about it, in the world championship where the team is defeated 0-2, the more it wants to take the initiative, the greater the psychological pressure it will be?"
"..."
