Chapter 377: Chapter 376-opening battle

The match continued.

After the introduction of the teams and the DJ’s performance, the screen switched to the commentator’s seat, and the commentator introduced the first game to the audience.

The grouping and schedule for the S1 finals had already been decided. The opening match would be the domestic team NRG against the European team flog.

As the teams were still in the period of changing and getting used to each other, there was no obvious difference in strength in the division. Therefore, there was no distinction between the first and second seeds. They were all drawn randomly to ensure that the four teams in each group came from different divisions.

On the field, the players on both sides were already in position and adjusting their machines.

On the big screen, the two commentators began to introduce the two teams in this competition.

Strictly speaking, there should be three commentators in League of Legends, one for the field, one for the team battle, and one for the game analysis, each taking up a different role.

A crowd-control commentator was usually in charge of the topic to prevent the commentator from going off track. The team battle commentary required a clear line of thought, a sharp tongue, and to be able to clearly explain the key details of the team battle; The game analysis and commentary were usually done by retired professional players. They had to have a more accurate interpretation of the strategic intentions of both sides.

However, this was the first season of the Grand Finals, and Chen Mo didn’t have the resources to find so many professionals. As such, he only had two commentators this time, and the lineup was quite random. It was basically a professional esports commentator and a professional player from another team, or a high-scoring random streamer.

Of course, these people were also carefully selected. They had a deeper understanding of the game and were more eloquent, so they were qualified to be the commentators.

“Welcome to the S1 World Championship of League of Legends! We’re currently at Shanghai’s Grand Plaza. We’ve just seen that all sixteen teams participating in this world Tournament have already appeared!”

“Hello everyone, I’m the commentator, memories.”

“Hello everyone, I’m ke Zhen, the mid player of Team E.”

......

The two commentators introduced themselves. Memories could be considered one of the earliest e-sports streamers in the country. She was good at controlling the situation, while ke Zhen was an active mid-laner in the e team.

Since the e team did not make it to the World Championship, ke Zhen was invited to be a guest commentator. He was very skilled and had a large number of fans in China.

Moreover, due to ke Zhen’s last name and his tendency to be gay, his fans loved to call him “ke ji.”

Many of the audience members were already cheering,”ah, Corgi!” Oh my God, I thought it would be a pity that he couldn’t come to the finals, but he’s actually a guest commentator, simply great!”

Memories: “okay, we saw that the audience was very enthusiastic just now. When all the teams came on stage, they gave a very warm applause and cheers. So, before the game officially begins, I would like to remind everyone that this time, apart from the League of Legends app and the official website, you can also watch it through the major live broadcasting platforms. Thank you for the strong support of the major platforms.”

“Alright, we’ve just watched the 16 teams enter the arena. Everyone should have the teams that they support in their hearts. Then, for today’s opening battle, it will be our NRG against the European team DG. We can see that the players on both sides are already debugging their equipment. The exciting match is about to begin!”

The debugging time was very short. After the two commentators chatted for a while, the big screen showed the B.P. Interface.

“Alright, let’s move on to the B/P phase. Team f has banned widow, stone man, and Prince, while team NRG has banned Tauren, Carter, and Scorpion.”

“Let’s let’s let’s see which champion they’ve chosen. Oh, it’s locked in, Ezreal!”

“The NRG team is also very fast. They’ve locked in on Shen and sona. It seems like they’re prepared.”

“Yeah, there’s really nothing much to think about for these Champions. They’re all popular Champions at the moment,” ke Zhen replied.

As the corresponding hero was locked on the big screen, the holographic projection also flashed the hero’s holographic image, causing the audience to cheer.

Not only were Ezreal, Shen, and sona popular in the competition, but they were also popular in-game heroes, so many viewers felt a sense of familiarity with them.

Soon, the lineup of both sides was locked in, and it was time for the final adjustment.

“So, for the final lineup,” reminisced Gu Fei,”for team f, there’s Lady Blade, Gragas, brightmoon, Ezreal, and Blitzcrank. For team NRG, there’s Shen, Lee Sin, Icebird, Vayne, and sona.”

“Then, ke Zhen, please analyze the lineup of both teams for the audience. Which lineup do you think is more reasonable?”

Ke Zhen said,”actually, both teams ‘lineups are more reasonable. There are many ways to win in League of Legends. You can play a snowball fight in the early and mid-game, and you can also play a team battle in the mid-game.” In short, I think that squad F is more towards the early game. They need to gain an advantage in the lane. On the other hand, squad F is more stable. Their early, mid, and late game are good. I still think squad F is better. ”

It had been six months since the April Fool’s Day version of League of Legends was released on April 1st. There had been three updates and 15 new heroes in total, which meant that there were 50 heroes in the game.

The heroes in the three versions of the update were: Top units: Shen, Prince, mundo, jungler, nightmare, widow, Scorpion, mid units: brightmoon, vampire, lacus, marksman, corki, Tristana, bigmouth, support, gem, Zyra, Morgana.

Of course, there were many Champions that could play two roles. For example, corki was more suitable for mid-laner, while Zyra and Morgana could play support or mid-laner.

Overall, League of Legends had fifty Champions, which was similar to S2 in Chen Mo’s previous life.

The popularity of League of Legends was constantly rising, and releasing all the heroes at once would leave the players at a loss. Chen Mo planned to release some special heroes like Zed, Yasuo, and so on in the same order as in his previous life, so that the players could slowly get used to them.

These 50 Champions were still a little too few, but some of the popular Champions had already been released, so for these professional teams, the number of Champions to choose from was not too little. It would not affect the tactics and viewing rate of the game.

Moreover, many professional teams were still trying to figure out their tactics. Overall, these teams only had two tactics. They could either choose strong champions like Lady Blade and Jax for the advantage in the lane, or they could choose Team Champions like deathsong, Icebird, and Rockman for team battles.

Chen Mo felt that these tactics were quite primitive, but it made him feel like he was back in S2, and it was quite an interesting feeling.
