With the end of the first two weeks of competition, the 2024 LPL Spring Season regular season standings have gradually stabilized, and BLG is currently ranked first with a record of four wins, while EDG and RA are currently losing all four games and it is difficult to find a win. On February 6, Beijing time, the LPL will usher in two matches on the second match day of the third week, namely EDG vs. FPX and LNG vs. BLG. As the last week of competition before the Spring Festival holiday, for every team's players, it is obvious that they hope to win the last game of the year to have a good year.
In the history of the LPL, EDG and FPX are undoubtedly two rich clubs, both clubs have won the honor of the S competition, but with the disintegration of the championship squad, both teams in a rebuilding state are now in the middle and lower reaches of the LPL. FPX have a 1-3 record in their last four games, while EDG has lost all four games without a first win of the season due to personnel changes during the transfer period.
Due to the two consecutive defeats at the beginning of the season and the unsatisfactory performance of the players, EDG even made substitutions for the starters in the two positions of the upper road and AD in the next two games. Ah Le and Le**E were replaced successively and replaced by newcomers Solokill and Thesnake, but the appearance of the two rookies did not create a miracle, especially when EDG faced BLG, he was speedrun by his opponent in less than 50 minutes in two games.
For EDG fans and LPL veteran viewers, I am afraid that one day EDG would fall to the embarrassing point of competing for the "Dark Four Heavenly Kings". The current 0-4 record is in the embarrassing position of the second from the bottom of the league, which also makes it doubly difficult for EDG Spring to compete for a playoff spot. And whether this season is mainly about cultivating new talents, or appropriately striving for results, how to choose between the middle has also become a problem for EDG management and fans.
Of course, EDG's most urgent thing now is undoubtedly to get a win first and end their embarrassing record of four consecutive defeats. However, judging from the past few games, Thesnake and Solokill, two newcomers, have not been able to adapt to the intensity of the LPL in a short period of time, and Fisher and support Vampire are also newcomers lack experience, which leads to the burden of the team's victory all shouldering Jiejie's shoulders. When Ah Le can adjust his form and mentality to return to the starting lineup may determine when EDG can end the losing streak. Fortunately, their opponents in this game, FPX, are also underdogs in the bottom of the rankings, and this is a great opportunity for them to end their losing streak this year.
On the whole, the strength of FPX and EDG is very close, and there are also a large number of newcomers in the FPX lineup, and the two Korean aides of Deokdam and Life have not been satisfactory since the start of the game because of personal status or communication problems. On the EDG side, if Ah Le can return to the starting line and cooperate with Jiejie, EDG on the Ueno side can at least guarantee an advantage. Judging from the data given by the professional e-sports ** platform before the game, EDG still has 171 are slightly ahead of their opponent FPX, and if Ah Le returns to cooperate with Jiejie, this match will indeed be the perfect time for them to get their first win in the spring.
The second game of the day will be played at the home of LNG Suzhou, where they will host BLG, who are currently at the top of the standings this season. Both teams have been firmly at the top of the LPL in recent seasons, and although the LNG is a two-win and two-loss record for the time being, it is foreseeable that they will also catch up with the first-tier teams as the difficulty of the subsequent fixtures becomes less difficult. And BLG has not tasted defeat so far, and winning all 4 games can also show their terrible combat power after strengthening their left hand.
Compared with BLG, there has been no obvious shortcoming, and the problem of this version of LNG on the other side is still more obvious, and the linkage and tacit understanding with mid lane SCOUT after the jungler is changed to Weiwei also needs to be slowly improved over time. Of course, the most critical issue is that the hero pool of the current version of Gala is put to the test after the mythic gear version has passed. In the last match against JDG, GALA's selection of the T0 version of Lucian with the bright candle did not play the desired effect, and the selection of Draven against the Verusga Ice was also very poor.
In this version, Gala's hero pool problem greatly affects the LP's lineup BP and game rhythm, Lucian, Varus and other heroes seem to have a gap in GALA's proficiency compared to other top ADs, and once targeted, it is easy to disrupt LNG's game plan. In the two-player road with BLG, which has the strength of today's league and is firmly in the top three, it will test the pre-game arrangement of the LNG coach and the on-the-spot performance of GALA and Mark in the lower lane.
Judging from the recent form and paper strength of the two teams, it is obvious that BLG is significantly stronger than LNG, especially in the version where the routine of double salary is prevalent, and the lower lane LNG will obviously have some disadvantages on BP. In addition, Ueno's confrontation BLG has a combination of bin and xun, and against LNG's Zika and Weiwei's Ueno also has a clear advantage. According to the data given by the professional e-sports ** platform before the game, BLG has no suspense in this game with 130 has the upper hand, and whether LNG can win may depend on Scout's play, and whether the combination of Gala and Mark in the bottom lane can bring surprises.
