Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.

The LPL is waiting for the finals and bubble matches to start, and the LCK side of the playoffs is in the semi-finals, and today is the first to play the contest between GEN and DK, in the previous opponent selection link, GEN chose DK as his opponent.

As a result, in this round of the game, GEN easily swept DK with a score of 3-0 and successfully advanced.

Faker welcomes bad news, and Chovy Galen is on fire

In the previous series of matches against DK, GEN played particularly hard, but won each time, the previous two BO5 wins were 3-2, in contrast, GEN against T1 won in a more relaxed way, so in the previous opponent selection session, there will be viewers who think that GEN will choose T1.

But after considering the name of T1 and the tradition of the team, GEN still chose DK, and this choice turned out to be the right one, GEN did not encounter DK's stubborn sniping in this round, but directly crushed it 3-0.

Before the game, the audience saw that Chovy players chose the mid-laner Galen in the qualifying, and guessed whether this would be GEN's secret weapon, and sure enough, in today's game, GEN selected two games of Galen in the second and third games, and played a single game in one game to play the top single, of which Chovy's mid-laner Galen in the second game played a very good effect.

This is definitely bad news for Faker, because Faker has not been in good form lately, one of the reasons is that he doesn't fit into the AD mid laner version, and now there are non-traditional heroes like Mid Dog Head and Galen, and the mage doesn't seem to be rising, and GEN won cleanly because of 3-0, which is not good for T1 and HLE.

Purely violent outfits, teamfights only require an E

Then let's focus on this mid-laner Galen, which is actually a way of playing that Chovy came up with to deal with the mid-laner doghead, as we all know, the dog's head has undergone a large number of versions of the strengthened, and the value has reached a very amazing level in the current game version, after the traditional play of the top single dog's head returned to the game, the mid-laner doghead also began to appear.

And if you want to deal with the dog head, you may need a more "rogue" hero, and Galen is such a hero, Galen's lane endurance is extremely strong, and with the precision runes and its own skill configuration, it can quickly clear the line.

At the same time, Galen's team battle style is also quite simple, Chovy's choice of outfit is the one that advances to the green fork crit, and the team battle only needs to rush up to an E skill to play a huge amount of AOE, and in the second game, Chovy's two waves of team battles have played amazing results.

The audience and players also sighed: Our Galen is really too manipulative! Compared with other heroes, Galen's combos are a little too simple, just like Galen beat Rui Wen back then, Rui Wen's crazy light speed QA is not as good as Galen's QE.

GEN leads the new trend, whether it continues to the S race

After heroes like Galen the dog head began to appear in professional games in a row, one of the points that the audience is most looking forward to is what the current version will look like, will it continue to the S game? As we all know, the designers have strengthened the mage in two consecutive versions, while also nerfing the Precision Tied Runes.

At that time, whether the mage can return or not, the key is to see whether the designer's degree of weakening of the precision rune and AD mid-laner will rewrite the environment in the middle lane, I believe that after the S game, it will definitely be a collision of different version systems, and the strong team is more likely to lead the version.

Personally, I think that the current GEN team is an unfathomable team, they have used a lot of special tactics today, but in fact they may have more hidden tactics, and the number of heroes they can show can be a very scary number, and it is expected that GEN will be the team most likely to lead the Worlds version.

And if you want to defeat such a GEN, it is not easy to complete a breakthrough in hard power, the key is to look at the collision in the understanding of the version, if other teams, including LPL, can meet GEN with their own version of understanding and win, then it can rewrite the status quo of GEN invincibility.
