KPL Annual Finals: Tank Support Returns to Peak, T0 Only Has Three Players, Su Lie is a Versatile Player.

Early on, Nuwa was the hero with the most outstanding performance in each lane. She dominated the mid lane with a win rate of nearly 70%, confirming her title as the queen of mages. In casual games, where players hadn't yet adapted to the Tetris-style gameplay, a serious Nuwa, once fully equipped, possessed terrifying explosive power. Utilizing her wide vision and predicting enemy movements, she created a stun by combining four matrix spaces, followed by a single energy attack that stole lives in its path, repeatedly performing miracles and single-handedly turning the tide of battle for her entire team. Her ultimate skill was crucial in stealing the Lord to buy time and create opportunities for a comeback. So never underestimate her combat power; she just hadn't unleashed it yet.

Playing time is linked to intensity

Mages and supports have always been favored classes by summoners, mainly because ranged attacks seem safer. In recent years, their status has been constantly evolving. In the past, they were labeled as parasites who helped players climb the ranks, but now they are the ones who initiate team fights, provide buffs and control, and the outcome of team fights depends entirely on the awareness of the support. The word "roaming" sounds like a passive playstyle, like a servant of the marksman, but in reality, their presence can also lead the team to victory. There is no rule that the jungler has the control of the rhythm. During the marksman's development period, after leaving the turret, they feel lost and helpless. Having a teammate by their side gives them a great sense of security. The question is, which hero does the opponent pick?

The number of matches played in professional matches is symbolic, unlike casual games. In professional matches, the number of players using a hero indicates its strength. The pick rate across all skill levels shows that the hero is popular and widely used. Do you know how the support heroes are ranked in this Guinness World Record-breaking KPL annual finals? They are quite polarized.

T0: Su Lie, Shao Siyuan, Master Lu Ban

To start the discussion, we should begin with the strongest lineup. It's worth noting that Lu Ban Master has the highest ban rate of all heroes, reaching 74.6%, meaning he's practically unbannable. He also boasts incredibly strong combos, often referred to as the "Siamese twins" playstyle. His strength lies in pulling enemies along, not targeting opponents, but rather his own teammates. During fights, he can hook teammates to the side, avoiding fatal damage. In a sense, Lu Ban Master is like an extra dash for stationary or mobile shooters, acting as a springboard for movement, allowing for chasing attacks without issue. However, this requires extremely high synergy; professional players, through rigorous training and years of accumulated teamwork, can't replicate this effect in casual games.
