's recent battle between V5 and IG was quite exciting, and the audience enjoyed watching it. During the game, XUN targeted the V5 fast-break style of play, which made it a bit uncomfortable to play V5. I still remember that during the Spring Split, V5's bottom lane was the team's shortcoming, and it was disadvantaged many times in the lane, making V5 very passive as a whole. In the summer split, V5's bottom lane laning ability has evolved, which makes the entire V5 team play more comfortably.
However, in the duel with IG, XUN's wild core play style was quite restrained by V5. When combined with the top lane to catch rich without thinking, it not only effectively targeted V5's solo lane, but also played a very important role in the later team battles. Small, which also makes V5's damage always worse. Looking back at IG, because XUN helped many times, this also allowed the top laner to develop better and became a difficult target to deal with in team battles. It can be seen from this wave of play that V5's fast break flow does have quite a few shortcomings.
During the spring playoffs, the reason why V5 was unable to perform in the semi-finals was because their fast break flow was difficult to gain an advantage. The tactical systems of top teams are diverse. Faced with V5's fast break system, top teams must have restraints. Especially RNG and TES, when facing V5, they have various methods to limit V5's entry into the jungle. These methods are more effective in the middle and jungle core play and focusing on catching.
The fast break system can indeed make V5 a top team, but relying on this monotonous system alone, it is difficult to achieve good results in LPL, which is currently under high competitive pressure. During the spring split, most teams didn't know how to deal with it. But in the summer split, when the goal of all capable teams is to enter the World Championship, V5 has become the number one threat to these teams. Compared with teams like RNG and TES that are strong and have many tactical systems, V5, which only plays a fast break system, is relatively easy to target.
V5 is actually aware of the shortcomings of V5's fast attack flow, but they are also working hard to adjust. Rich uses relatively stable wine barrels and , naar, and . These are all to prevent the opponent from being caught infinitely and to gain an advantage against Rich. Regarding the jungle core, Casa is also looking for ways to counter the opponent. In the early stage, if the opponent keeps targeting the top lane, V5 will also design a set of counterattacks or targeting the bottom lane to make up for the problem of the top lane being targeted. . But from the current point of view, V5's counterattack effect is not very good. Maybe they need to adjust the details of the counterattack again.
Overall, V5's fast break flow has also encountered a bottleneck. If V5 can make targeted adjustments, it may be able to perform better in subsequent games. From the current point of view, it is obvious that V5 cannot do this. The reason why V5 wants to try the mid-field linkage between Rookie and XLB is to strengthen the fast break flow. After all, XLB's wild core gameplay is indeed more refined. But judging from the performance of V5 in the summer split, they currently want to maximize their fast break flow, and it is still difficult for most teams to target their fast break flow. After all, wild core teams like IG , even if other players are inexperienced, they can make V5 miserable just by relying on the infinite grabbing style of play. Compared to sticking to the fast break system, I personally feel that if V5 tries more other systems, the effect may be better!
