Hello to all LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World of Games.
Yesterday, the LPL held two matches, where in the first match, TES managed to achieve a comeback victory against WE, finishing with a score of 2-1 and securing their fifth consecutive win in the third segment.
This match sparked heated discussions among viewers due to its outrageous content.
TES showcased an extraordinary showdown, the first dominant team has emerged.
Here's the situation: both teams' junglers, Kanavi and Monki, are known for their aggressive playstyles. The match they produced was dubbed an extraordinary showdown by the viewers, with neither backing down. The two junglers were relentless, often invading the enemy jungle or initiating fights without much thought, even if it meant sacrificing themselves.
In the first game, Kanavi invaded WE's F6, after which Monki brought his support to take revenge, countering Kanavi's F6 and eliminating him.
Later, WE successfully targeted 369 multiple times, while Kanavi teamed up with his allies to launch several counterattacks, securing many kills before starting to give them away. He was easily taken down during a solo invasion of F6, and several team fight decisions were quite absurd, leading WE to easily take the first game.
The most amusing part was that Kanavi's record in the first game was 5-7, while top laner 369's Aatrox was 0-6, showcasing two ridiculous records within the same team. In the second game, TES executed a swift victory, with Akali entering a small skirmish in the bot lane to secure kills, followed by a resource team fight where 369's K'Sante began to dominate the battlefield, aided by the fierce mid-game Akali to clinch the match.
In the third game, a humorous scenario unfolded again, as Kanavi picked jungle Monkey King, while JKL focused on securing the dragon. Ultimately, the dragon was sacrificed to help invade the enemy jungle, leading viewers to exclaim that the first dominant team in the LPL has been born.
JKL faced a ruthless sacrifice, yet still dominated the match.
The typical strategy for this match would revolve around securing the dragon, but TES played unconventionally. The dragon was taken down early under the tower, followed by a jungle invasion to help the jungler farm, resulting in losing at least three waves of minions. Kanavi's pathological playstyle drew criticism from netizens, as it seemed like he couldn't play without invading the jungle.
However, even in such circumstances, JKL's dragon managed to develop successfully and dominated the match, with both sides engaging in numerous team fights during the early and mid-game that were fiercely contested and evenly matched.
In a crucial moment, Monki's extraordinary attributes erupted, causing a disastrous situation for Galio as JKL secured four kills and soared ahead.
Originally, Monki's Olaf could have charged in to eliminate the dragon, but after the dragon became fat and acquired a Guardian Angel, WE's charge was essentially given away. Ultimately, TES smoothly defeated WE, securing their fifth consecutive win.
After the match, everyone discussed the duel between the junglers. One can only say that Kanavi's playstyle has not changed much over time; he requires the entire team to help him establish an advantage, and once he falls behind, he tends to make impulsive decisions that lead to giving away kills.
WE faced a five-game losing streak, with the jungler's performance lacking.
Kanavi's playstyle had previously shown signs of a poor mentality during its peak, leading to overly aggressive jungle invasions that resulted in giving away kills. Now, after joining TES, it seems unlikely that this will change. When facing Korean teams, Kanavi struggles to utilize jungle advantages, leaving TES in a state of surrender.
It's worth mentioning that TES completed a revenge match against WE, as they had been defeated by WE in the second segment, and WE has now faced a five-game losing streak since the start of the third segment.
I believe a significant reason for WE's poor performance is the poor condition of jungler Monki. He seems to have reverted to his earlier performance at EDG, charging forward recklessly at times, even losing his sense of reason and dragging teammates down with him, far below the standards seen in the second segment.
In previous matches, some even suspected Monki of match-fixing. It's unclear why his performance has declined, but I hope he can adjust quickly. The biggest issue in the LPL currently is that the skill level of newcomers is lagging behind. Often, after having a good segment, their performance immediately drops, making it challenging to truly grow. I also hope Monki doesn't repeat this pattern.
