Chapter 2: Version Change and the Role of Idols (2-in-1)

The S4 World Championship ended on October 23, 2014.

A few days later, the date for the settlement of the S4 has been determined, and Riot is set for November 11, 2014.

According to the national service, it will generally be delayed by one week, so the period of settlement of the national service should be around November 20, 2014.

In fact, just one week after the tournament ended, on the morning of October 30, 2014, Riot released information about the latest map.

Compared to the two editions of S3-S4, this change can almost be said to have changed the entire Summoner's Canyon beyond recognition.

However, this is not to say that the change is bad, but it has been unrecognizable to veteran players. The changes can be said to be unprecedented, in addition to the hero's skills have not been changed much, even the avatars of many heroes, the original paintings, have changed a lot.

For example, the original steam robot Britz has a very blurry avatar, a bit like the skin of the village farmer holding a straw in his mouth in a wine barrel. And this time, it was changed to a cute robot head, as if it was aimed at the camera-like avatar, which made people recognize it as Blitz at a glance.

In addition to the original painting of the hero's avatar and the skin have become much more refined, the Summoner's Canyon is also much more beautiful than it used to be. Overall, it's just a change in the picture. The changes to the gameplay, equipment, and wild areas are also very large, making many veteran players unable to adapt to them.

Especially in the jungle, the S5 version can be said to be a greatly enhanced version of the jungler. Not only has the new Wild Monster Swift Crab been added, but a lot of changes have been made to the equipment, and even the economy, experience, and increase in the wild area have been strengthened a lot.

For example, jungle amplification, a jungler punishes a monster and will receive a buff.

Punish the Stonemen and receive the gift of Iron Fist, which stuns creeps and creeps for your first and every fifth attack. Attacking towers deals additional true damage and consumes Tekken's Gift effect.

Big, get the gift of toadstools, get toadstool armor, and apply poison to enemies that attack you.

F4, get the gift of Eagle Eye, which will automatically give you a True-Sight effect for a short time the next time you are spotted by an enemy Scout Ward.

Three wolves, get the wolf soul sentinel, a wolf soul will patrol this quarter of the wild area for a short time. If an enemy enters the jungle, it will rush at the enemy and report your enemy's location.

There is also a red buff, S5 will not return health when taking red before, and will only slow down and deal true damage when attacking enemies. And now it provides a mechanism that everyone knows about in the future, and the health recovery speed will be very fast when there is a red buff on the body.

As for the blue buff, nothing has changed, it is still back to blue. It's just that this mechanic has been around since S2, but it hasn't been enhanced, which is a strange thing.

And the big and small dragons have also been updated.,S5The big dragon is the well-known Baron Nash.,The attack power has been cut by 200 compared to the previous big dragon.,But it's become more rough and thick-skinned.,It used to take more than 10 seconds for 5 people to set fire.,Now it's going to be 20-30 seconds.。

The little dragon is not the elemental dragon that everyone is familiar with later, but the shape of the dragon has been changed, a bit like the later fire dragon. However, it no longer provides economy, nor does it increase a fixed buff like the Fire Dragon, but instead provides a stacking buff.

The official introduction is that killing a dragon now gives you a permanent "Dragon Slayer" buff, and depending on the number of stacks you get, you will get different permanent effects.

Stack 1: Increases recovery speed by 5 mana/health every 5 seconds.

Stack 2: Increases armor and magic resistance by 10%.

Floor 3: Increases movement speed by 5%.

Stack 4: Increases armor and spell penetration by 10%.

Stack 5: All other effects are tripled and gain Dragon Burn for 180 seconds: All of your damage burns the target, dealing 50 true damage per second for 5 seconds.

*Compared to the current one, the experience of the dragon has been reduced by 50%.

*Killing a dragon does not receive a global economic bonus.

*Dragon's damage to heroes is (20xbuff stacks) % of the extra damage.

*Dragons take hero damage down (7xbuff stacks)%.

There are two useful pieces of information that can be obtained from here, one is that the small dragon is more important, and the value of taking 5 small dragons is greater than the value of taking 3 large dragons.

The second is that the damage dealt by the dragon to the hero is higher, and the damage caused by the hero to the dragon is reduced.

This means that in the S5 version, there will no longer be a hero level 3 or even level 2 and level 1 to fight the dragon alone, and you need to have a certain equipment level or a sufficient number of people to do it to the dragon.

In the future, the intensity of the small dragon team battle will not be much worse than that of the big dragon group.

On top of that, there are changes to the towers. S5's towers do more damage, and the laser towers that many people remember are from S5.

Official Description: The Highland Crystal Tower now has a pulse attack effect.

- Four attacks per second on a single target.

-Damage increases from 100% to 260% in 6.5 seconds.

- Gain 40% to 100% armor penetration for 6.5 seconds.

- When the target is changed, all boosts will be reset.

Now rely on a tank to storm the highland tower, if you don't replace the tower in time, the highland defense tower will let you know what cruelty is.

Finally, there is the equipment.

This is not a big change, removing equipment such as Atama's Halberd, Wisdom Mixture, Tenacity Mixture, Flame Torch, Ancient Golem's Spirit, Lizard Elder's Spirit, Spirit Stone, Mered's Claw, Rig's Lamp, Spiked Coat, and more.

Of these, only the Atamar's Halberd is something Galen often comes out, and almost no one but Galen does it, so it's normal for the fist to choose to remove it. The rest were all jungle outfits, but with something else instead.

Many people are familiar with the alternatives, S5 four jungle artifacts, poachers' daggers, rangers' sharp weapons, guerrillas' sabers, and hunters' blades.

Seeing these names, for many old jungler players, do memories come to an eye all of a sudden?

However, the more well-known slag has not yet been released, and it will not be until version 5.6 in April 2015 that Riot will launch the slag very willfully.

As a result, the ecosystem of the upper road has changed dramatically, and the warriors who have been rampant for only 3-4 months have disappeared and have been replaced by large trees, bobbyes, centaurs, large bugs, and Mondo.

In terms of new equipment, in addition to the four major jungler artifacts, there is also Glory of Justice, that's right, Glory of Justice S5 has it. And at this time, the Righteous Glory is still a group acceleration, and when you rush towards an enemy or enemy tower, it can provide you and your nearby teammates with 60% movement speed for 3 seconds.

Another piece of new equipment is the Portal, which is called the Zrot Portal, which summons the Void Bug to crash into the tower. It's worth mentioning that thanks to this new piece of equipment, Riot has added a small piece to this as a crafting accessory.

This small piece is famous for being called Father C Emperor on the list, which is the Raptor Cloak that is nicknamed the mother cloak by C Emperor fans.

That's all there is to it, and of course, there are many details. For example, the synthesis price of some equipment has changed, some equipment has been weakened or enhanced, some heroes have been weakened or enhanced, and the specific stats of defense towers have changed, which will not be repeated.

As for the S5 phantom gods that everyone is more concerned about, such as Nuo Shou, Sword Queen, Captain, and Iron Man, when will they be redone and revised. It's the early days of S5, and these heroes haven't been changed, and they won't change until mid to late S5.

For example, the first to be revamped was the Captain, which was completely reworked in version 5.14 in July 2015 and became the Captain of the Fried Barrel that everyone later became familiar with.

Then there is the unequaled sword Ji Fiona, which is the 5.15 version in early August 2015, from the original young girl, to the later glamorous aunt.....

Then there are Note and Tetsuo, which went live in version 5.16 at the end of August. It is worth mentioning that in addition to the iron man of the no-hand, Galen is also redone in this version, and the Galen villain system we are familiar with is from this version.

So in terms of heroes, there was not much change in the early days of S5. The heroes to be redone at the fastest time will also need to wait until the 5.8 version of Ryze in May to be reworked, and this version, Ryze is almost invincible.

Many e-sports media in the national server predict that the version update of the S5 will be launched on November 20th, but this time the penguin is very efficient, after the update of the American server on November 11th, the national server version update began in the early morning of the evening of the 17th, in addition to the settlement of S4, it is an update to the S5 preseason.

This time, Yun Luoyang did not reach the top of the national server when he settled, because he went to the finals, and even if he played the rank, it was the ranking of the European server, and he did not return to China to play at all. made S4's national server number one, and was taken away by a well-known player.

Dopa!

After he was banned, he was invited by Shenlong TV to come to the national server to start the live broadcast.

Originally, he should have been invited by Crooked in August 2014, and later transferred to Maoya, a subordinate platform of Crooked Live Broadcast.

But this time, Yun Luoyang went to South Korea to play in the Asian Games, and contacted many Korean players in advance, such as Brother Coin and Shame Man, including Dopa.

made Dopa be cut off by Shenlong TV, came to Zhonghai, and started his live broadcast career.

In fact, the shy man didn't want to come to LPL at first, he initially went to several OGN teams for interviews, but all of them failed without exception, not because he was not skilled, but because there was a conflict in the position he wanted to apply for.

The shy man wants to play the top single, but there is no shortage of people in the top list, like when he went to SVT1, people already had Ma Datou, so he couldn't find a team at all.

Yun Luoyang took advantage of this opportunity to harvest a wave, first took Dopa back, and then asked Dopa to persuade the little brother to come to LPL. So now Shy O has come to FD and has become FD's top laner in the third team of the LSPL minor league.

In addition to this, there is Brother Coin, who is currently also being devolved to LSPL. It's not that their strength can only play LSPL, but they are all amateurs who have never played a professional game before, and they have no experience in professional games, so they will first put it in LSPL to play for half a year, exercise and exercise, and then mention LPL.

Yun Luoyang also told them about this, and it will not bury talents like them.

It's just a little uncomfortable that according to the latest news from the LPL, the official will stipulate that those under the age of 16 are not allowed to participate in LPL and LSPL competitions. This is actually a bit uncomfortable, which means that the ashamed man of 99 years is very likely to be unable to play.

Luckily, Saint Gun was in '98, and in the first two years of the World Championship, because Riot officially stipulated that he was not allowed to participate under the age of 16, he could not go to the World Championship stage.

But this year he just turned 16 years old, which not only satisfies him to continue playing in the LPL, but also to participate in the World Championship.

Therefore, Brother Saint Gun was put in the DRG to fill the gap left by Ah Guang.

At present, DRG still lacks a jungler and support, and the management is not particularly anxious about this issue. With more than two months to go until the start of the 2015 Spring Season, there is plenty of time to find someone, not to mention that they already have some candidates, so they don't worry about that.

In fact, as early as after Ah Guang and Mei Kou decided to leave, the management was already conducting interviews and screenings, and after watching a lot of contestants, Yun Luoyang participated in it.

But to Yun Luoyang's surprise, this time the DRG management interviewed a lot of jungler assistants, most of whom he hadn't even heard of, and their IDs, no matter how Yun Luoyang racked his brains and scratched, he couldn't think of the name of any professional player in the previous life.

However, these people are all very strong without exception, and the worst are the top 100 passers-by in the national service.

Some people's strength and consciousness are so powerful that even Hirano Lin thinks they are very powerful.

You must know that the plain forest of S4-S5 is recognized as the first auxiliary of the national service and the light of domestic assistance.

Even a genius like Mei Kou has been suppressed by him in these two seasons, and you can know that the current Hirano Lin is at the peak of his career.

If Hirano Hayashi, who is comparable to the god of assistance, feels powerful, then this person is definitely not far behind.

This also made Yun Luoyang sigh that his appearance had indeed affected too much.

The three-time S champion gives more than just the pride of being the world's first among national players. It also brings about unpredictable changes.

For example, a certain game genius in the previous life didn't pay attention to League of Legends at all, and didn't even play the game.

And in this life, because Yun Luoyang won the Triple Crown, the overwhelming news of League of Legends, coupled with all kinds of campus propaganda and information that went deep into the grassroots, attracted this game genius.

Then the genius boy who was buried in history plunged headlong into the ocean of League of Legends, relying on his talented strength, easily hit the first place in the national server, and then joined the team, won the championship, and then walked to the peak of his life.

This kind of bridge abounds in reality.

Not to mention the near, it was in S5 that the director of the factory was in S5, killing SVT1 and winning the world championship, so he started his career and finally achieved his own legend.

Therefore, such examples are by no means a minority in real life.

The factory manager can be a role model for many junglers and serve as their guiding star. Yun Luoyang's influence is now much larger than that of the previous factory, so it is natural that more geniuses can also stand up and embark on the path of their careers.

This is actually the role of idols.
