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

Chapter 466 He said he was already the world's number one jungler!

At this moment, Wang Yao stood up, looked at the time in the upper right corner, and smiled with amusement.

This is two seconds faster than IG's speedrun against SKT in the previous life!
In that game, Ah Shui also picked Draven, but Ah Shui's Draven and iboy's Draven were two different champions.

Iboy's several plays were so impressive that even Meiko, who was standing next to him, almost had a stroke.

Turning around, I found my teammates already gathered together, chatting and laughing.

It turned out that when he stood up, everyone had already lined up in an easy manner, standing behind him waiting to shake hands.

The EDG members lined up behind Wang Yao with practiced ease, like a mother hen followed by a flock of chicks.

Wang Yao naturally led his teammates to the SKT players' bench to shake hands.

Meanwhile, on the SKT players' bench, Khan, who seemed somewhat numb, subconsciously turned his head to look when someone approached. Upon recognizing the person, he trembled slightly and immediately stood up.

Even when reaching out his hand, he kept his head down, not daring to look at it for more than a second, as if he was afraid he would explode.

Unpleasant memories from last year's MSI Mid-Season Invitational flooded back.

Wang Yao didn't notice anything amiss, and after shaking hands, he even patted the other person's shoulder with a smile.

Khan lost his balance and slumped back into his chair. The studio staff couldn't help but react when they saw Khan's timid and submissive demeanor.

The doll exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, what is Khan doing... I feel like he's really afraid of Wang Yao."

"Yeah, I think Wang Yao is a gentle older brother in real life, and he treats his teammates very well. Why does Khan have that expression?"

The doll also looked puzzled.

Putting everything else aside, Wang Yao's looks and skills are undeniable; he has garnered countless female fans, and even male fans, in the LCK region.

But Khan's reaction was indeed strange.

Miller, on the other hand, seemed to have figured something out and laughed:

"It must be a misunderstanding. The Khan must have been thinking about something else. Otherwise, with Wang Yao's kind and approachable personality, I don't think anyone would dislike him."

"Kind and approachable? The Khan's head was already ripped off by Brother Yao last year. Is this the legendary 'nuclear' kindness?"

Miller instantly amused the viewers in the live stream.

Khan: Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer! There's a ghost! There's a ghost!

"This is the legendary attitude of treating teammates with the warmth of spring, treating the game with the passion of summer, treating the competition with the shrewdness of autumn leaves, and treating enemies with the coldness of winter."

"Holy crap, I was vehemently opposed to your retirement from the literary world back then!"

"Amazing, absolutely amazing!"

"The current generation of netizens is still the best at creating entertaining content."

Wang Yao was taken aback by the Khan's overreaction and couldn't help but touch his own cheek.

Am I really that scary?!
As for the Khan, that man is so petty. It was just a beating, was it really necessary to make such a fuss?!
If the Khan could hear Wang Yao's inner thoughts, he'd probably spit out blood. Was this a beating? How many beatings has he already received!

From the World Championship the year before last to the MSI last year, it was a nightmare that lasted for a whole year!
Beyond Khan, behind him is the jungler Clid.

Although Clid didn't have the same strong stress response as Khan, her complexion was still quite unpleasant.

In this game, his jungler was completely outclassed, not just by a Pyke jungler.

Don't be fooled by how well Wang Yao played Pyke in the game, even getting a pentakill!

However, Pyke is actually not a suitable jungler; he is even more extreme than Camille.

In regular ranked games, he would dominate Pyke by at least 80 points, or even 100.

But the Parker we met today seems a little different!

Then he came to Faker.

Faker was still in a daze when he saw the base crystal explode and then looked at the game time in the upper right corner. He sat in his chair for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.

That's it. We had a team fight in 15 minutes, our team was wiped out, and then our base was gone.

The last two are Captain Teddy and Mata, who are also SKT's biggest culprits in this game.

They both secretly vowed that if they ever encountered Sona and Jewel again, they would twist their heads off and kick them like balls.

After the much-anticipated handshake and physical altercation segment, the MVP of the match was announced as the EDG members bowed and walked off the stage.

Without a doubt, it was Pike, whose presence was explosive throughout the entire game, that was Wang Yao's.

Especially the final five-kill streak, which secured a pentakill, shocked the entire audience.

LPL invited the quirky Flandre to their interview booth; they dared not ask Wang Yao, the interview black hole, for anything more.

The main stage in Vietnam naturally invited Wang Yao, the MVP, to be interviewed.

As introduced by the female host, Wang Yao walked onto the stage, and the audience erupted in cheers.
"Wang Yao!! Wang Yao!!"

"Ahhh, Yao-ge, Yao-ge!!"

"Ahhhhh, honey, honey, I'm here!"

The atmosphere was just as lively as that of a major domestic sporting event, which surprised Wang Yao.

This year's MSI Mid-Season Invitational was held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, attracting not only domestic fans but also fans from all over the world.

Wang Yao's performance last year was absolutely phenomenal; he swept all the world-class tournaments, winning both the championship and MVP awards.

In other words, Wang Yao debuted late, but even so, he is still a player who can be compared to Faker.

Regardless, the lively scene certainly got the atmosphere buzzing.

The Vietnamese host, speaking fluent Vietnamese, enlivened the atmosphere of the event.

Then her beautiful eyes turned to Wang Yao, revealing a sweet smile, while she kept muttering to herself.

The venue was set in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, so the host was naturally a local host from the Vietnamese region.

Fortunately, Riot Games was reliable enough to provide a translator.

The key point is that this translator seems to be a local as well.

After the female host finished speaking, she raised the microphone, looked embarrassed, and stammered:

"So... so a lot of data, like MVP and KDA, will those make you the world's best jungler?"

As he listened, Wang Yao's already icy expression grew even colder.

What utter nonsense!
Looking at the microphone the young lady was holding out, Wang Yao wore an indescribable expression, and everyone on and off the stage waited for his answer.

One second, two seconds!

Time passed slowly, and an eerie silence fell over the scene.

Looking at Wang Yao, whose face was as cold as ice.

The viewers who were redirected to the official live stream and were waiting to see the interview instantly erupted in excitement:
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!"

"What is this translator talking about? Can't Riot Games do something serious for once?!"

"LOL, this guy's translation is absolutely amazing."

"Hahaha, look at Wang Yao's expression! Hahaha, it's hilarious! He encountered a translation black hole while interviewing a black hole!"

Wang Yao: Waibi Waibi, Waibi Babu!!

"This is hilarious."

Fortunately, the awkwardness only lasted a few seconds. The Vietnamese host realized something was wrong and immediately whispered to the translator to ask again.

The translator seemed even more nervous, and couldn't help but touch his nose as he asked, "You... could you become the world's strongest jungler?"

That's understandable now!

Wang Yao said casually, "I used to be the world's number one mid laner, but I just switched to the jungle position this year, so I don't know about this year."

The translator nodded confidently, fully certain that he understood Wang Yao's meaning.

So he said to the host, "I used to be the world's number one mid laner. Although I switched to the jungle position this year, I still have always been!"

Although he didn't quite understand a few of the words, he figured they were probably harmless!
The translator confidently translated while inwardly reassuring himself.

"oh!!"

The audience below the stage immediately erupted in a commotion, followed by loud cheers.

Seeing the audience getting excited, viewers in the LPL live stream couldn't help but scratch their heads, thinking that what he just said didn't seem to be any better than what Boran said.

Why did it start making noise?

However, the ubiquitous online community came into play, with one fluent in Vietnamese immediately providing a direct translation of the conversation.

"Fuck."

"LOL, this works too?"

"This translation is amazing! It's exactly the same as the translation questions I did when I took the CET-4 (College English Test Band 4)."

"The most deadly form of mental construct is the one that cannot be concealed!"

……

The person in charge at Riot Games noticed that something was off with the translator and quickly streamlined the interview process through backend controls.

Several "brilliant" interview questions had been prepared for Wang Yao, but they had to end the interview hastily.

According to the information received through the earpiece, the Vietnamese female host could only maintain a stiff smile, quickly ask a simple question, and end the interview.

At this moment, the translator still had a mysterious confidence on his face.

Huh, why did the interview end so quickly? My translation was correct, right?
After finishing their opening match, EDG and SKT returned to their rest area for a short break.

There are a total of 6 group stage matches today, which will be played over five days, in a double round-robin BO1 format.

So there's still a long way to go in the competition!
EDG's last match today is against the Vietnamese PVB team, and the result of this match is not in doubt.

Despite being a new Vietnamese team, PVB, a bandit-like force, demonstrated their dominance in the previous MSI Mid-Season Invitational qualifiers.

However, as everyone knows, wildcards and the five major regions are completely different concepts. After the competition began...

PVB has truly mastered the skills of Vietnamese junglers, and their draft picks are even bolder!

If you pick Pyke first, you'll obviously play him as a support.

Then he picked out the incredibly aggressive jungler Spider, clearly not willing to submit to Wang Yao and wanting to go head-to-head with him in the jungle.

The other positions also lacked any skill; everyone just stubbornly refused to move.

Top lane Malphite, mid lane Lissandra...

They played incredibly aggressively, hoping to crush EDG with sheer brute force.

But EDG is naturally not afraid. If they back down to a wildcard team, they might as well not go back to China.

Maokai, with Sylas, directly taught PVB a lesson.

Pyke's ultimate and Crystal Maiden's ultimate are both top-tier ultimates.

In this game, as long as Sylas is picked, no matter what position you play—jungle, mid, or in the jungle—it's a fun game.

Ultimately, Sylas was given to Scout in the mid lane.

Scout's Sylas has also been trained.

Wang Yao even picked a Tier 1 excavator for the jungle.

Don't you like head-on confrontations?!

Is the Silaska excavator mid-jungle combination enough?

Both sides drafted very aggressive lineups, making it more like a free-for-all.

But once you enter the game, it's basically a free-for-all.

The two sides started their level 1 team fight within a minute!
From the jungle to the river...

Then they started fighting all over the map!

However, there is still a gap in overall strength, even though the kills were initially swapped.

However, as they played, the economic gap widened.

In the end, the game lasted for nearly forty minutes and resulted in more than forty kills.

Ultimately, Wang Yao's excavator, equipped with full armor penetration and high damage output, found an opportunity to solo kill the enemy ADC, and then EDG secured a perfect team wipe to take the victory.

However, the audience thoroughly enjoyed the performance!
The Vietnamese team's envisioned "ultimate pick" draft didn't work; they drafted a Malphite top, a Lissandra mid, and a Pyke support...

It looks like the ultimate move is very powerful.

However, the professional arena is different, especially since EDG has a Sylas who completely counters the PVB lineup.

EDG and the others also had a great time playing.

I had a blast playing Super Smash Bros.

The buffalo guys were a bit dazed after being beaten, and they looked absent-minded when they shook hands.

Wang Yao thought this was quite normal. In a sense, PVB lacked professionalism and attitude because of the low intensity of the competition in the region.

The professional attitude here does not refer to the attitude of a player when playing professionally, but rather to the ability to execute tactics and strategies during the game.

They have a strong belief in individual skill and team composition.

However, their operational capabilities are much weaker.

It's not just PVB; all the guys in Southeast Asian teams are the same.

They were outmaneuvered by Korean teams in terms of strategy, couldn't win in head-to-head battles against LPL teams, and even had a skill gap in the laning phase with European and American teams.

However, in the early game, PVB and EDG were evenly matched, trading kills and having a great time.

However, in the mid-to-late game, EDG used a clever tactic, taking control of Baron Nashor, Dragon, and minion waves.

EDG's Weiwei's operation completely disrupted PVB's rhythm.

Ultimately, EDG and Wang Yao seized the opportunity and took the game in one fell swoop.

However, the domestic buzz surrounding this match was completely overshadowed by the recent news of Wang Yao's interview.

When the video of Wang Yao's interview was circulated back in China, the Vietnamese translation became a huge hit, consistently trending on social media.

Fortunately, today's competition is over. After everyone had laughed, they started packing up their equipment and preparing to go back to the hotel to rest.

"..."

EDG's match against PVB was a thrilling free-for-all, but SKT had a tough time.

They were a bit stunned by EDG's performance in the opening match.

Their last match of the first day is against G2, which means SKT has a grueling schedule today.

First, defeat the Great Demon King Wang Yao, then defeat the Prankster King A P!
There were only two best-of-one matches, pitting the top teams from the two strongest regions against each other.

What frustrated Faker even more was that they didn't win this game either.

As if it were pre-arranged, G2 also picked a Sona-Talisman combo that was invincible in the mid-game, but completely useless in the late game, and crushed SKT once again.

It seems like SKT is saying, "What kind of crap are you guys playing with your Taric and Sona?! Let me show you a tutorial game!"

As a result, Khan in the top lane couldn't suppress Wunder, Jonkos took the initiative to set the pace, and Faker couldn't stop Caps' support.

G2's bot lane duo of Taric and Sona completely overwhelmed Teddy and Mata.

Ultimately, a disastrous team fight in the mid-game led to SKT losing another game.

The losing streak on the first day of the competition completely stunned the entire SKT team.

If losing the first opening match could be attributed to poor form or a failure in the development of cutting-edge technology, then it could be attributed to poor performance.

However, in the second game, SKT brought out their signature Korean-style macro play.

However, G2 unexpectedly picked the Taric-Sona combo, which surprisingly defeated their proud Korean-style macro play, giving them a lesson in how to play.

This caused them to begin to doubt themselves.

Has their much-vaunted playing style really become outdated?!

Or has the overall strength of the LCK region declined?!

The next day.

The competition continued on the second day.

EDG's first match is scheduled for 8 o'clock, against G2.

The EDG players arrived at the venue early as usual, waiting for the match to begin.

Sitting in the backstage lounge, watching the ongoing match between FW Flash Wolves and SKT on the big screen.

The current FW Flash Wolves no longer possess the aura of their former BO1 kings and anti-Korean pioneers.

Even when facing a sluggish SKT, FW was struggling to keep up.

Ultimately, Flash Wolves (FW) delivered a timely boost, helping SKT regain their confidence with an impressive 12-2 score.

The next match is EDG's match.

They were facing off against the unpredictable G2 team.

Facing G2, who had strengthened their roster with the addition of the "Caps," Perkz switched to the ADC position.

Even without Wang Yao's specific reminder, everyone in EDG knew that G2 was a tough opponent, and in their minds, they valued G2 no less than they valued SKT.

After all, the second laugh of the S8 season in the classic song "Echoes of the Sea" last year directly destroyed a top e-sports team.

Although EDG is currently riding high on the momentum of a three-peat, they can't afford to fall to G2 and follow in RNG's footsteps!
Although Wang Yao utterly crushed G2 at last year's World Championship, G2 has changed a lot this year.

Compared to SKT's Korean-style operation, which is steady and methodical, slowly grinding down the opponent.

G2 is a team that, when they get excited, unleashes a flurry of attacks and crushes the veterans. These two teams have completely different playstyles.

As the SKT players visibly breathed a sigh of relief, they retreated backstage.

A moment later, Wang Yao and his teammates from EDG walked onto the stage.

Coincidentally, the G2 members were also walking next to Wang Yao.

"Hi, Wang Yao, I'm your biggest fan, don't come and harass me later!"

Ah P, true to his reputation as a prankster, greeted Wang Yao familiarly the moment he saw him, and even picked up a Chinese phrase from somewhere, speaking it in a strange tone.

The other members of G2 also had various expressions.

Jonkos, on the other hand, was eager to test his skills against Wang Yao in the jungle.

Caps means "It's none of my business..."

"Hi..."

Wang Yao responded politely with a smile.

But in his mind, things were really getting interesting. "You little prankster, huh?!"

Just wait for me!

After a few minutes of equipment setup, they waited for the referee's signal.

Soon, the match between EDG and G2 officially began.

Blue side EDG, red side G2.

EDG banned Akali right from the start, because Scout didn't really want to play Akali, so he banned her first.

Saint Gun doesn't play this game either, so we can't just give it to Caps for no reason.
