S12 World Finals: a system of conceit, blindness and backwardness, T1 defeated FNC is not surprisingly
Although FNC has been making great strides since the finalists, before the start of this match with T1, there were still not many people optimistic that Europeans could win. However, before the start of the game, the entire T1 team was still filled with a kind of "honey confidence": whether it is what faker said, "think LCK is still stronger than LPL", or the long sword green bottle that Zeus went out, or the oneer level 3's brainless in-depth wave, it all reflects a problem, that is, T1 is likely not paying attention to this group match with FNC at all.
As the top top laner of LCK, zeus' performance this year is obvious to all. But in this game, he used an extremely radical long sword + green bottle to go out. This kind of life-threatening equipment requires him to have enough advantages online, otherwise he may not be able to develop. We don't know whether this is Zeus' personal choice or T1's tactical preparation, but judging from the results of the game, this outfit did not take much advantage against FNC's Sword Demon .
If there is still room for fault tolerance for Zeus installation, then oner's extremely unwise pursuit is simply a crime. This not only gave him the upset double BUFF, but also gave up the laning advantage that had been established in the bottom lane, which also laid the foreshadowing for the subsequent laning explosion. Upset's wonderful single kill was more like a result of Lv Budou. If he could press the flash in time, he would not be killed. Overestimating your health and operations, underestimating your opponent's damage and determination, made this genius AD swallow the bitter fruit of his defeat.
Just looking at these two kills, T1 will not completely collapse. But the decisions of the entire T1 team are really incomprehensible. Without much disadvantage, he chose to forcefully switch roads to compete for the Canyon Pioneer, and in order to change roads, the weapon master handed over the key teleportation. After this wave of line changes, the development of T1's upper and lower routes was completely disrupted, and the economic gap was wider and wider. There are two very big problems in the tactical system of T1 in the past two years: the first is that you do not pay attention to the little dragon, especially the wind dragon. As long as the wind dragon appears, you can basically let it go. I thought it was a jungler's problem at first, but then I figured it out. If it weren't for the T1 coaching staff's permission, how could oneer dare to blatantly release such important resources?
The second is to be overly obsessed with the Canyon Pioneer. The little dragon can not fight, but the canyon pioneer must not skip it. Even when the economy is backward, you must forcefully fight with your opponent. Other top teams will choose to compete for the most suitable resources based on the actual situation on the scene. The reason why T1 attaches so much importance to Xiaolong is that it is to strive to establish advantages in the early and mid-term, speed up the offensive rhythm and snowball. To put it bluntly, it is that it has no confidence in its mid- and late operations and dare not play with its opponents in the late stage. Similar to a game that is falling behind 10,000 yuan and turning the tables, how long has it been since we met this T1 now?
If a so-called champion team still needs to rely on the veteran Faker, who broke into the enemy's formation and killed the opponent's core C position, then I think it can't go much far. Judging from the comments after the game, T1 still seems to have not learned a lesson. 18 consecutive victories have become a past trend. Today, T1 must let go of his own posture, learn from his opponents humbly and pay attention to every game. Otherwise, RNG, which failed in the 2018 World Finals, will be the future of T1.
As a loyal fan of T1, I really don’t want to see what T1 looks like now. If T1 is in this state in the future, Lee Sang-hee will never win its fourth S Championship trophy in his life.
