2022 MSI mid-season competition is getting closer, as the game version used in this competition, 12.8 has also officially arrived in the national service in the near future, compared to some previous versions, the adjustment range of the 12.8 version is not particularly large, the main reason is also MSI, the designer does not want such an important game version to make drastic adjustments, but even so, the impact of the 12.8 version on future competitions is also there, let's take a look at it below.
【Hero aspect】
The 12.8 version of the hero weakened not much, only three, namely Jinx, Xia, and Solarka, found that no? Weakened are all heroes on the road, especially Xia, who performed well in the game some time ago, and Jinx was stabbed on the basis of the original weakening, it seems that "The Battle of Two Cities" also slowly fell out of favor after that, tears in her eyes.
Kinks weakened the basic life
Kasumi weakens the damage of the late Q skill and increases the cooldown
Soraka is more direct, weakening the AP bonus of the W treatment, almost cutting into the aorta
Compared to Solara, Kasumi and Jinx may not become the preferred AD in MSI, since there is weakening, naturally there will be enhancement, so in terms of on-field performance, how many heroes are worth paying attention to?
There are 14 heroes in this hero enhancement list, and two more heroes have been adjusted.
Svein this hero in this version is a small redo, at present, Svein can be used as a Fatan auxiliary to play the next road, but in the professional arena, it is estimated that few people dare to try, and the next road this time added a lot of shooter heroes, including EZ, Ember, Kasha and Small Cannon, going around and around is you? Kasha and EZ!
Such an adjustment is actually not difficult to understand, because in the previous version, there were three heroes in the professional arena, Kinks, Kasumi, and Erpheus, which greatly limited the play space of AD, coupled with the further weakening of the power of the wind in the previous version, but also allowed Kinxe and Euphreus to be further weakened, between this and the other, these few increased heroes are bound to become the mainstream choice on the MSI field.
Bobby's W cooldown time has been reduced, and his R skills have also been fully enhanced, which undoubtedly gives him further room for improvement in restraining some of the entry lineups, and although Silas has only adjusted the cooldown time of the big move this time, this range is really a bit large.
100/70/40 sec 80/55/30 sec
As a backhand counter, Silas does have a miracle in front of many lineups, which may become another major attraction in the future MSI field. As for Bud, to be honest, if anyone can play Bud clearly on the MSI field, it is estimated that the first thing that comes to mind is Keria, as a guy with an auxiliary inventor in the LCK division, I really don't doubt his creative ability, Bud is a generalist in terms of heroic characteristics, there is control and milk and long-distance group, with some specific lineups can indeed do a one-handed surprise attack.
【Equipment Adjustment】
One of the biggest changes in version 12.8 is the use of stopwatches.
Simply put, the double gold body will become history, in fact, the designer is completely correct and understandable, you can recall that there were too many games, some inferior teams rely on double gold body or resurrection armor plus gold body to drag the battle situation, and even finally change the battle situation, so similar to the Laipi style of play does make the game really embarrassing, so this time the quick knife chopping mess, so that the game is completely G.
The end of the double gold age means that the inferior party can no longer rely on this kind of cleverness in dressing to try its luck, but returns to the real world to find more effective opportunities.
【Impact on MSI?】 】
Overall, the focus of this version update is on the lower road line, weakening some overly strong, or even several versions of the shooter stronger, enhancing some shooters who have been snubbed in the professional arena, so that MSI's downside diversity is more abundant, and the starting point is naturally good.
Of course, we also see that this 12.8 version has fewer changes for Naka Ueno, and I personally think that MSI is still a version led by Naka Ueno, but League of Legends in recent years has always had a two-way trade-off problem, do you want to play the early offensive rhythm 30 minutes to end the battle, or choose a set of late lineups to attack the 35-minute team battle? For this year's MSI, it depends on how the major teams understand and dig.
