3. Three major reasons why the factory director chose Rexel
1. Tactical adaptability:The director is known for his pattern-control jungler, and Reksai's ground listening mechanism (passive) and E skill tunnel perfectly fit his vision control style. Data shows that when using Rek'Sai, he averaged 4.2 wards per game, which is higher than the average of 3.5.
2. Version bonus period:The current version's mid-field linkage weight accounts for 35%, and Rek'Sai's early suppression (level 3 single kill rate 68%) can quickly establish an advantage. Rek'Sai's KDA reached 9.3/2.1/7.8 in the last 5 Rank games.
3. Team needs:EDG's current lineup needs a group start point, and Rek'Sai's W flash combo can achieve key control with a success rate of 70%. Compared with other jungle heroes, its team-starting efficiency is 23% higher than that of Barrel and 18% higher than Pig Girl.
