Chapter 120: Show Your Sword!

After the trash talk segment ended, the director switched the camera to the commentators' booth.

Today's commentary team consists of three people: one is the two veteran LPL commentators, Wawa and Miller, the Haier Brothers duo, who never miss important matches.

The third person is PDD, an official special guest!

"Alright, welcome to the S7 World Championship!"

"The match between EDG and SKT is about to begin. I believe everyone is feeling a bit excited and nervous, and is full of anticipation for this year-end showdown!" Wawa said with a smile on the stage.

"Yes, and we are also very happy to have PDD, Teacher Piao, join us in the commentary booth today to witness the birth of the S7 World Championship!"

Miller said from the side.

PDD smiled at the camera and waved: "Hello everyone, I'm PDD."

"Getting back to the main topic, we all saw the pre-match trash talk between the two teams, and I have to say the tension between the players was really high!"

The doll chuckled and said, "The atmosphere for this final battle is really high, especially Rongguang and Kshine's closing trash talk, they were so confident."

With Tencent's encouragement, Wang Yao acquired many more nicknames, such as "Brother Rongguang," "God K," and "The Chosen One," which became widely circulated.

"Now, it all depends on the EDG players' performance on the day. Hopefully, they can perform to their usual standard!"

PDD nodded and said, "Actually, EDG made it all the way to the finals, so their form and mentality should be fine. They've been through so many ups and downs."

"That's right. Regarding the upcoming best-of-five series, I'd like to ask PDD, between EDG and SKT, which team do you favor more?" Miller asked PDD.

"From my personal emotional point of view, I would definitely support the EDG team."

"But from the perspective of a professional retired player, the team I support is still..."

PDD paused deliberately, drawing sidelong glances from Wawa and Miller, before continuing, "Of course it's EDG! I think they have a better chance of winning!"

Wawa Miller smiled and said, "We both predicted that EDG would beat SKT 3-2. What do you think, Piao Laoshi?"

"You guys are too timid. I think it'll be 3-1 at most," PDD chuckled, speaking arrogantly. "Honestly, I don't think 3-0 is impossible!"

"Your prediction is a bit too bold." Wawa shook his head and smiled. No matter what, SKT is a strong opponent who defeated RNG head-on. Eliminating them 3-0 is a bit of an exaggeration.

"Alright, alright, enough joking around. Statistically, EDG does have a slightly higher win rate, but their opponent is SKT after all."

Miller's smile faded, and he said seriously, "SKT is still very strong in a best-of-five series. This is the first time EDG has faced SKT in the finals. No matter what, we must not underestimate our opponents."

"Yes, but Kshine is really worthy of our trust. This rookie AD's dominance and team fight ability are outstanding."

Wawa remarked with considerable emotion, "He's practically the perfect ADC player template. He can carry the game, stay calm, and never hesitate in crucial moments."

"A while ago, Pray even went to EDG's official Weibo account and followed Kshine's Weibo account, haha. It's clear that the Rat King really admires this young player."

Just as the three commentators were chatting, the director switched the camera to the players' seats.

"I'm coming!"

Wawa excitedly announced, "The long-awaited first game of the finals is officially starting! Let's take a look at the draft phase!"

"In the first match, EDG had the initiative to choose sides and chose the blue side, while SKT was on the red side."

Miller exclaimed excitedly, "The highly anticipated S7 World Championship Finals have finally officially begun at the Bird's Nest!"

"The ban/pick phase has begun! EDG, on the blue side, has banned Jarvan IV, Sejuani, and Galio in their first three picks!"

When PDD saw Faker's Galio get banned, he finally breathed a slight sigh of relief. At least from EDG's first three bans, he could tell that EDG wouldn't be as stubborn as RNG, letting Faker have a comfortable game.

But soon, PDD realized that if EDG banned Galio, Jayce would be free, and they, being on the blue side, would likely first pick Jayce!
The question is... do they really dare to give Mouse Jayce? Or do they have some other plan?

"SKT has banned Kalista, Taliyah, and Rakan!"

As soon as the doll finished speaking, EDG instantly locked in Janna on the first floor! They didn't pick Jayce!

"Janna was picked right away! EDG's first pick was very decisive. Will SKT give Huni Jayce?"

"They picked their champions really fast, immediately locking in Lulu and Varus for the bot lane!"

Amid the baby's gasps, many audience members were on tenterhooks.

SKT deliberately didn't pick Jayce!

They are forcing EDG to lock in Jayce on the second and third floors. If EDG doesn't dare to pick Jayce, then the subsequent draft strategy will definitely be very difficult.

It's EDG's turn to choose.

EDG seemed to have already decided on their lineup for this match, and they made their hero selections without hesitation.

Lock Jess up on the second floor!

The third floor has decided on the jungler, Gragas!

"Jace has been released, EDG will take him! You dare to release him, I dare to take him!" Miller clenched his fists excitedly.

Regardless of how EDG performs in this game, at least they didn't suffer from a limited champion pool against SKT, and they didn't have to bear too many unnecessary bans like RNG did!
Only with this spirit of daring to fight can we shoulder the heavy responsibility of forging the glory of LPL!
Of course, EDG has to pick Jayce, otherwise if SKT gets Jayce and forms a Varus + Jayce double poke combination, then EDG will have a headache.

Just as PDD was speaking, he noticed the director's camera, which had switched to SKT coach KkOma.

When he saw EDG lock in Jayce, his smile was exceptionally bright, just like when he saw Xiangguo lock in Lee Sin in the semifinals.

On the third floor of the red team, Faker locked in Malzahar!

Something's not right! SKT must have anticipated this.

PDD sensed that things were not going well.

Soon, in the second round of the draft phase, EDG, on the blue side, continued to block Peanut's jungle champions.

Zac and Lee Sin have been banned!
On the SKT side, they blocked Scout's strong champions Syndra and Orianna.

After the second round of bans ended, SKT's fourth player didn't hesitate at all and immediately locked in Poppy.

This unexpected use of Poppy made PDD on stage realize that SKT was planning to have Huni use Poppy to withstand the pressure!

Now, the right to choose players has once again fallen to the EDG team.

For SKT, the reason they reserved the counter pick for Peanut is because Peanut has a secret weapon that can synergize with Malzahar in the mid lane.

However, he cannot pick this jungler first; he must confirm EDG's mid laner pick before he can pick it later.

From God's perspective, both the audience and the three commentators were somewhat nervous at this moment.

Judging from the first three heroes picked by both teams, EDG's choices were not bad, but SKT's counter-picks were also very strong.

If EDG can't rely on their last two picks to fundamentally change their lineup, then the outcome of this match is really hard to predict!
