LOL: My talent is top-tier, my professional skills are unparalleled.

Chapter 16: The Fated Battle Between the Old and New Wild Kings!
When it was RNG's turn to pick third, Xiaohu decisively locked in Lucian.

This pick also has the implication of using a pick instead of a ban. Xiaohu is not only good at playing utility mid-lane heroes; he also has two balls and one hero, and Lucian is one of his specialties.

Scout from EDG responded, "You dare to steal my Lucian? Then I'll pick LeBlanc to lane against you!"

"In the second round of the draft... both junglers will have to rely on their champion pools!"

Watching the fiercely contested ban/pick strategies on the competition stage, Miller became increasingly eager for the intense battle to come.

Neither side has selected their jungler yet, but Guan Zeyuan has already roughly guessed the possible hero options.

RNG, on the blue side, banned Kha'Zix first, and EDG, not to be outdone, banned Lee Sin.

RNG bans Elise Queen again.

However, EDG did not continue to target Xiangguo, but instead chose to disable Xiaoming's Titan.

"Titan has been banned..."

Xiao Ming frowned.

EDG's banning strategy felt like hitting a nerve; RNG now needs to quickly decide which engage hero to pick first.

With the second round of bans completed, EDG instantly locked in Jarvan IV on the fourth floor, a champion known for his ganking and teamfight initiation abilities.

"If RNG wants to maintain the initiative in the early game, they need to choose stronger jungle champions, otherwise it will be difficult to compete with Jarvan IV in terms of tempo."

Miller seemed lost in thought, his mind constantly flashing through images of the jungler heroes that might appear next.

"Is it possible that Xiangguo will pick a jungler who can dive in and take down the carry this game, such as Rengar, Evelynn, or Nocturne?"

Before Guan Zeyuan could finish speaking, the League audience below the arena suddenly erupted in a deafening cheer.

RNG locked in Braum and Widowmaker on the fourth and fifth floors respectively!
"The widow has really come!"

In the commentary booth, Wawa couldn't help but cover his head. Mlxg's move to secure Widowmaker felt like he was going all out against Clearlove.

Back in the S5 MSI finals, Clearlove defeated the then-dominant SKT team with his unpredictable Evelynn pick.

Now, the new generation of jungle king, Xiangguo, stands on the stage of the LPL Summer Finals, using the jungle heroes that Clearlove once used to reach the pinnacle, to challenge his opponents.

The fateful battle between two generations of LPL jungle emperors, one old and one new, is about to begin, revolving around Wang Yao, the substitute AD carry!

"It's said that Riot Games is about to start reworking Widowmaker, and this battle may be the last glorious moment for the old Widowmaker."

Miller nodded and chimed in agreement:
"In addition, RNG made a significant change to their draft style in this game. It remains to be seen whether the changed RNG can achieve the desired results."

"To be honest, EDG's last counter pick is actually not easy to make."

"When Braum activates his E skill and raises his shield forward, it's very difficult for Twitch to break through in the first round of damage. Add to that Xayah with her ultimate for survival... tsk tsk, it's too difficult."

"Yes, so the pressure on Twitch in this game is quite high. He needs to stabilize his development in the early game and find fleeting opportunities to deal damage in team fights."

"EDG's bot lane is having a tough time."

The three commentators on stage each expressed their own opinions, but their ideas were surprisingly consistent.

RNG's lineup for this match was full of hidden tricks to defeat Wang Yao, and the changes made by the Fire Fox coach were truly astonishing.

"EDG's last counter pick is Gragas! So Jarvan IV will definitely have to flex to the top lane to lane against Shen."

With Jarvan IV and Gragas providing initiation and crowd control, EDG's lineup still falls short of RNG's in terms of burst damage.

"The lineups for both sides have now been finalized. RNG, on the blue side, will have Shen in the top lane, Evelynn in the jungle, Lucian in the mid lane, and Xayah and Braum in the bot lane!"

"EDG, the red team, has a top laner named Gragas... Hmm? Why did EDG put Gragas in the top lane? Is Clearlove playing Jarvan IV jungle this game?"

Guan Zeyuan was almost fooled by EDG's "feint" in the draft. Top lane Jarvan IV is very common this season, but top lane Gragas is a bit like "performing acrobatics".

"In that case, EDG's lineup will be Gragas in the top lane, Jarvan IV in the jungle, LeBlanc in the mid lane, and Twitch paired with Rakan in the bot lane." "EDG's flexible lineup seems pretty good. Jarvan IV is not afraid of Evelynn in the jungle at all, and Gragas in the top lane should have no problem laning against Shen."

On the RNG player bench.

Letme, who had finally managed to snag a Shen champion, had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly looked worried again.

Gragas, who unlocks his ultimate ability at level six, can interrupt Shen's teleport ultimate from a distance.

This means Letme has to hide in advance before using his ultimate to support his teammates, otherwise he will be interfered with by Mouse.

"Please make sure you're all focused in this match, communicate well before you act, and strive to win this crucial game!"

The Firefox coach's tone became stern.

RNG can't afford to lose at this point!

……

"Okay, let's continue to look forward to the exciting competition between the two teams, and we hope that the players can bring us more surprises in this game."

"Thank you Mercedes-Benz for supporting the LPL..."

After Guan Zeyuan skillfully recited the advertising slogan and thanked a bunch of sponsors from League of Legends esports, the on-site director brought the camera back to Summoner's Rift.

The fourth round of the Pig vs. Dog battle tonight has officially begun.

Deng!Deng!Deng!
Heroes from both the red and blue teams descend upon the battlefield of the canyon.

"The enemy team might try to engage us in a level 1 team fight. Just make sure to place defensive wards in the top and bottom jungles and try to avoid fights."

The factory manager made preliminary operational plans.

Wang Yao glanced at both teams' lineups, pondered for a moment, then pinned the mid lane and said, "We can look for an opportunity to see if we can force Lucian to use his Flash."

The factory manager seemed to be thinking for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Let's give it a try."

“RNG grouped up and invaded at level one. With Braum and Lucian on the team, EDG was hesitant to engage in team fights.”

"Meiko's Rakan placed a ward at the river entrance, and the other four ran to the top jungle. Are the two sides going to exchange jungle camps?"

From the commentary booth, Miller observed the movements of the EDG players and spoke up.

But as Xiaohu's Lucian moved from the jungle to the mid lane, Miller suddenly realized EDG's true intentions.

"LeBlanc is moving towards the mid lane, and Kshine's Twitch has also stealthily approached. They're going to catch the enemy off guard. Will Xiaohu be able to react in time?"

The hunched plague rats lurked in the shadows, silently advancing towards Lucian's location.

The factory manager's prince followed closely beside the rat, but stopped immediately upon reaching the grassy area above the river.

Snapped.

Scout revealed herself and auto-attacked Lucian, who didn't rush to use her E skill to bind Xiaohu.

"Oh, Hello!"

The instant Scout made his move, Wang Yao's Rat also raised his broken crossbow and fired a poison arrow at Lucian.

A harsh voice, full of sinister laughter and mockery, rang out. Caught off guard, Xiaohu was stunned and immediately controlled Lucian to retreat.

However, the prince in the bushes nearby threw out his E banner, and after receiving the attack speed bonus from the banner, the rat's crossbow firing rate began to increase.

The mechanical mechanism rapidly pulled the venom-coated arrows, piercing Lucian's body one after another.

Seeing this, Little Tiger couldn't hold back any longer!
