LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

Chapter 268: Classic reappearance, beat him in the balls!

When A Guang heard the ID Khan, he felt a little nervous. Khan had indeed been defeated by EDG before, but he lost to Su Mo, not to him.

Just as Guang was hesitating, Su Mo stepped forward and said, "Guang, this is unlike you. Where is your confidence? Do you remember what you said when you told me that you wanted to leave EDG?"

"What? You've only been here for a few months, but your ambition has already been worn out? Show some ambition!"

Ah Guang was stunned after hearing this, then he clenched his fist and said, "I! We RW will definitely fight you a fifth game!"

Su Mo gave a thumbs up: "You're being decent this time, Guang."

Xiaohu cheered, "Great! That's what we want. Isn't it just KZ, the No. 1 team in LCK? We've been abused by EDG for so long, why should we be afraid of KZ?"

Jackeylove also joined the discussion: "Just do it, why think so much, the worst that can happen is we lose the game, it's not like we haven't lost before, just do it!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was already tense, Abu suggested, "Everyone come over here, everyone come over here."

So the four LPL teams gathered together, and Abu continued: "The fourth game is extremely important. We cannot deny that our opponents are very strong, but we believe in RW and LPL. LPL will win!"

Everyone shouted together: "LPL, must win!"

On the other side, in the LCK lounge, the four LCK teams are working together to discuss how to deal with RW.

"RW's top laner is a breakthrough. He was a mascot when he was in EDG and basically never won against strong teams."

"Also, the mid lane is the rhythm engine of RW. Ban all his support heroes so that he can only play in the laning phase, and then the team will basically win."

"RW's overall operation is not very good, and there are no very strong superstar players. We just need to prevent them from synergizing."

"With KZ's strength, it should be no problem for them to beat RW, as long as they play well."

After a short break, at the game site, the three commentators in the commentary booth looked a little nervous.

Wawa explained: "Hello, audience friends, welcome back. Now we come to the exciting fourth game. Because of the competition system, we can know the matchup of the fourth game in advance."

"On the LPL side, only RW has not played yet, and on the LCK side, there is still Kingzone. They will be the opponents in the fourth game."

Miller took a deep breath and said, "I feel very nervous and stressed. LCK let AFS win in the third game. They must have read the Art of War. KZ is now the top team in LCK. If EDG met KZ, we would definitely feel relieved, but now it's RW."

Rita is more optimistic: "I think we can trust RW. I believe they can drag the game into the fifth game. Then EDG will be able to return as the champion. Come on, RW!"

The players from both sides are on stage!
The five members of RW appeared on the stage. For the first time, they enjoyed the treatment that only EDG had enjoyed before. The audience cheered in unison: "RW! Come on! RW! Come on."

The cheers shook the entire stadium.

No one cares about KZ on the other side.

The two contestants shook hands in the middle of the stage, then turned and walked towards their respective positions.

In the LPL lounge, everyone was watching this game closely.

Entering the BP phase, KZ started to play a targeted game as expected, banning Galio and Taliyah first, and then adding a Mundo.

The factory manager muttered, "Not letting Guang mix? Do they think Guang can only choose Mondo to mix?"

Entering the hero selection stage, A Guang confidently picked the Captain!

The factory manager was excited: "Here comes A Guang's captain, he is very brave and seems to want to challenge Khan."

Meiko said: "Khan? He is just a defeated general. What is there to be afraid of for Guang?"

Then, when the audience and commentators felt that it was difficult to choose a hero in the mid lane, Doinb directly took out Kled.

UZI suddenly realized: "Yes, there is also Kled to choose. Isn't this hero's support ability very strong?"

Su Mo agreed: "Kled is indeed a good choice. It fits RW's style of play and current lineup very well."

However, KZ was not going to sit back and do nothing, and directly took out Anivia in the middle lane.

Everyone in LPL was stunned.

UZI looked at Xiaohu and said, "General Tiger, what do you think of Anivia? Is this hero strong now?"

Xiaohu scratched his head and said, "I haven't played it before, so I don't know."

The factory manager asked Scout: "How about Anivia playing mid lane in this version?"

Scout tried to analyze: "Anivia is a hero that should be used to defend against the charge. His W and ultimate can split the formation, and it is indeed useful to deal with Kled."

UZI saw this and complained: "General Hu, take a good look at others."

Xiaohu was completely speechless. He deserved to be scolded for this?
This is not over yet, RW got Karthus in the bottom lane!

The entire lineup looks a bit abstract, comparable to EDG's lineup.

Entering the game screen, RW was very stable in the early stage. Although they were caught once in the bottom lane, they got back a kill with the help of TP support from teammates.

The most amazing thing was the top lane. The top laners of both teams mainly developed peacefully and did not take the initiative to cause trouble.

The factory manager said, "Well done, A Guang. Just keep an eye on him and don't let him gain an advantage, and you will win!"

The situation that everyone was worried about, where the team would be beaten to death on the road, did not occur.

Entering the mid-game, the two sides fought back and forth, with the kill ratio at 3:3, and the economy was also very fierce.

Everyone in LPL is silent. They are all very nervous and their attention is focused on the game.

Twenty minutes into the game, the score between the two sides was still 3:3, and the economic difference was not much, less than !

This situation is rare in the competition. There is almost no gap, it is completely 50-50.

What's being tested at times like this is mentality. Whoever gets impatient first is doomed.

Su Mo suddenly said, "This is acceptable for RW. In the late game, the opponent will not be able to handle Karthus's ultimate. With the help of Gangplank's ultimate and Kled's back row, it will be very difficult for the opponent to defeat them."

At this moment, Kled and Gangplank suddenly worked together, killing their way from the bottom lane to the opposite jungle, and even to the opposite high ground. Although they ended up with a two-for-two exchange, it seemed like they neither lost nor gained.

But teammates took advantage of this opportunity to take down the middle lane tower.

The factory manager was very nervous: "It's really scary, rushing to the opposite jungle to do such a thing, A Guang, is it really you? Fortunately, I won in the end."

Both sides continued to develop. At 25 minutes, the support was killed by the opponent while providing vision. However, the opponent used too many key skills and the big dragon could not be killed.

In the 28th minute, the two sides had another team fight in the Baron pit, one for two, RW earned a small kill, and the kill score was tied again.

Meiko felt like she couldn't breathe: "It was so thrilling. Every wave was 50-50, with no gap at all. I felt like I might collapse and be swept away by the enemy at any time."

Su Mo responded: "At this time, the competition is about heartbeats, to see who can stay focused and concentrate, and make fewer mistakes."

Before we knew it, the game time had reached thirty minutes and the economic gap between the two sides was still within five hundred!

Everyone in LPL feels their scalps tingling, this kind of game is too rare.

Kled began to lead the troops in the bottom lane and push the second tower.

The teammates put pressure on the big dragon pit, and the second tower in the bottom lane was lost.

The factory manager made an assessment: "KZ is facing a problem now. Anivia doesn't dare to push the line with Kled because he is easy to be attacked. Kled is very comfortable pushing the line now. This is a point to win the game."

The fourth little dragon spawns, and a team battle of ten people begins!

RW attacked the little dragon first, and the top laner took the damage in front.

At this moment, a TP is sent to the back row!

Su Mo was a little excited: "Kled TPed away, and now the ADC is isolated and helpless. Others' attention is not here. KZ is going to be in trouble!"

After Kled TPs to the ground, he goes straight to find the ADC and deals with the bottom lane duo alone. With the help of Captain's ultimate, he uses a set of skills to severely damage the ADC. At the same time, Karthus uses his ultimate!

The factory manager cheered: "We're going to win! We're going to win! KZ can't handle it, the ADC will be killed instantly!"

The ADC was killed by Karthus's ultimate. BDD's Anivia turned on the stopwatch to evade, but his teammates were gone and no one supported him. As soon as the stopwatch ended, his passive was activated in almost one second and he turned into an egg.

The doll got excited: "Hit his balls, hit his balls!"

The LPL crowd also shouted: "Hit his balls, hit his balls!"

"We can attack in one wave, we can attack from the bottom lane!"

"Awesome! Doinb is really good at playing Kled. He rushed in and killed the opponent's ADC instantly."

"There's still a chance, we still have a chance! Oh oh oh oh!"

After RW won the team battle, they chose to end the game in one wave from the bottom lane.

"RW! RW!"

The audience was thrilled.

Rita excitedly announced: "With the health of the KZ base crystal reduced to zero, congratulations to RW for defeating KZ. They gave LPL a chance to win the fifth game. Congratulations to them!"

Everyone on the RW field was very excited, hugging and shaking hands with each other.

On the other hand, KZ seemed unable to accept their failure and stared at the screen in a daze.

Soon, everyone from RW returned to the lounge.

Su Mo stepped forward and said, "Nice, your performance is really great. Thank you for your efforts!"

Ah Guang's confidence really rose. He said, "We will fight you for a fifth game after we win. We will definitely do it."

Su Mo smiled: "Not bad, A Guang, you have made progress."

Ah Guang smiled and said, "It's mainly because Brother Mozi taught me well."

Abu continued: "Now that we have the opportunity for the fifth game, we need to decide who will play."

Although the other teams wanted to volunteer, they finally gave up and left the opportunity to EDG.

Everyone else looked at EDG, and all the coaches except Abu were also looking at Abu.

Abu looked at Su Mo and said, "In that case, then EDG should take the lead. After all, we are the top team in LPL. We also want to thank everyone for their support for EDG."

At this point, Meiko asked a question: "Who will LCK send to play against us?"

Abu shook his head: "I don't know, but I'll know soon. I'll go check it out."

The atmosphere in the LCK lounge was completely different from before. More than 20 people gathered together with serious faces. Who could have thought that the fourth game, which was said to be a sure win, could still be lost?
But now I can't figure it out and can only consider the next step.

Faker said, "In the next game, we, SKT, will go up and play."

Everyone in LCK looked back and saw Faker's eyes were sharp and he was already in the game.
but!

LPL will definitely send EDG, there is no doubt about it.

SKT lost to EDG before, and SKT ranked very low in the LCK Summer Season and may not even make it to the playoffs. It is hard to say that such a team can represent the LCK.

Kkoma said, "Sang Hyuk, I know how you feel, but given the current situation... let the other teams come."

Kkoma also secretly sighed. He didn't expect SKT to fall to this point. It all started with the defeat in the S game last year. It's a long story.

Faker was a little reluctant, but there was nothing he could do since the coach had said so. This left AFS, KZ, and KT as the three teams left.

"You guys go ahead." Suddenly, KZ backed down.

KZ coach said: "We have played against EDG many times, and I feel they know us very well."

For KZ, this seems to be an opportunity to show themselves, but they have to consider the consequences of losing the game.

If LPL really comes back from 2-0 down to win 3-2, I will be scolded to death by LCK fans.

This leaves only KT and AFS.

Neither team seemed to want to give up. AFS had just lost to EDG and wanted to save face.

Semb suddenly said: "Let's do it. I know you want revenge, but we have also seen EDG's strength. We KT are more confident. They have never played against us. We have studied them a lot, which is our advantage."

Deft echoed: "I know EDG better. If you are willing to believe in us, you can give us this opportunity."

After some discussion, AFS members decided to withdraw.

In this way, the LCK has also been decided, KT!

In the LPL lounge, Abu returned to the lounge and brought news:
"KT, LCK eliminated KT."

Doinb muttered, "KT? The same KT that lost to IG? Then we're safe."

Ning Wang was unhappy: "What you said is not very good, do you look down on our IG?"

Doinb quickly said: "How is that possible? IG is so good, how dare I look down on them?"

Jackeylove advised: "Okay, Ning, he is like this, if you get impatient you will lose."

On the EDG side, Su Mo found Meiko and said, "I'm going to fight your old lover. How do you feel now, Tian Ye?"

Meiko smiled evilly: "Hehe, I know him too well. I have already thought of a hundred ways to target him."

The factory manager jokingly said, “But he knows us very well too. He may have found two hundred ways to target us.”

Abu felt a bit of a headache: "From this point of view, it seems that KT is somewhat restraining us. There are spies!"

Su Mo patted Iboy's shoulder and said, "Xiao Zhao, be ruthless. The person on the other side is your love rival. You don't have to give me face."

"Love rival? Hahaha, what the hell is a love rival?" Zizi laughed.

Iboy said: "I have always liked Deft and I really want to learn from him. I will not waste this opportunity."

Su Mo nodded: "I feel relieved when you say that."

After a short break, Abu called out, "Okay, it's almost time, let's go to the court!"

So the EDG team left the lounge and entered the corridor.

The KT members came out from the next room and the two sides met each other!

The atmosphere was somewhat depressing and only the sound of footsteps could be heard.

In the commentary booth at the game, Wawa said: "Welcome back, the exciting fifth match is about to begin. I didn't expect that this BO5 would be dragged to the fifth game."

"I am sure that LPL will send EDG, but who will LCK send to fight? This is a question."

Rita analyzed: "LCK can definitely think of the opponent as EDG. It seems that except for KT, all of these four teams have been defeated by EDG. I feel that it is very likely to be KT."

Miller suddenly became excited: "Hey! You guessed it right, I received news from the front, the next game is between EDG and KT!"

Rita muttered, "In that case, doesn't that mean Deft will be laning against Meiko? They know each other very well, which is interesting."

The audience was discussing:

"Meiko couldn't have let it go on purpose, he was so nice to the pilot."

"It's over, EDG shouldn't be allowed to go up, they will miss the old times!"

"That's enough. Why didn't the pilot miss EDG and deliberately let it go?"

"With Brother Mozi here, what are you afraid of?"

On the field, players from both teams came on stage!

First is EDG!

The five members of EDG appeared on the stage and the director gave a close-up.

"EDG! EDG!"

On the other side, the five KT players came on the stage, and the director also gave a close-up to Deft.

So the left side of the screen is Meiko and the right side is Deft.

Rita complained: "Our director also played along and told us who the werewolf was the first time."

Wawa laughed and said, "To be honest, it was fine originally, but now that the director has done this, the operations of these two people will definitely be closely watched. If there is any mistake, it will be hard to explain."

After the players from both teams came on stage, they shook hands face to face in the middle of the stage.

Su Mo faced Smeb. Smeb looked delicate, expressionless and very serious.

After shaking hands, Su Mo turned and walked towards his seat.

Arriving at the position, Su Mo put on his headphones and got ready.

So, the BP for the fifth game began!

In this game, EDG is on the blue side and KT is on the red side.

Ban situation:
EDG: Varus, Lucian, Xia
KT: Irelia, Aatrox, Noxus

Wawa began to analyze: "EDG directly banned three ADCs, which was very targeted, just going for Beft. Now KT is mainly targeting the mid and top laners, both of which are heroes that are strong in laning and teamfighting."

Entering the hero selection stage, EDG on the blue side got Taliyah on the first floor.

KT locked Galio and Kaisa on the first and second floors.

Rita commented: "From this perspective, KT still chose to pass the ball to the bottom lane and believe in Deft's personal ability."

EDG got Malphite and Alistar on the second and third floors.

Miller exclaimed: "Ah? Did EDG also learn this routine? I remember that on the first day of their game against SKT, SKT chose Iron Man and almost beat EDG. Is EDG's learning ability so strong?"

Wawa continued: "To be honest, the Kaisa Galio system was invented by EDG. The two sides can be said to have learned from each other."

KT locked Morgana on the third floor and entered the second round of BP.

KT banned Nightmare and Shen.

EDG banned Mundo and Rumble.

Rita continued to analyze: "Both of KTBan's heroes are very important. They are both EDG's system heroes and signature heroes, which proves that KT has done a lot of research on EDG."

KT got the Gragas on the fourth floor, and EDG locked in Anivia and Kindred on the fourth and fifth floors.

Rita exclaimed: "Anivia and Kindred? In the last game, Kingzone mid laner BDD used Anivia. Although Kingzone lost in the end, his Anivia was really effective. Now that EDG has used it, which position will it play?"

Wawa continued, "Based on my understanding of this hero, I think he must be the mid laner, because he is a hero that lacks mana very much. He really needs the blue buff, so it is more appropriate for him to go to the middle lane."

KT got the Captain on the fifth floor, and both sides began to adjust their lanes.

The countdown entered the last twenty seconds, and the lineups of both teams were determined:

EDG on the blue side: top lane Anivia, jungle Kindred, mid lane Taliyah, ADC Malphite, support Alistar.

Red side KT: Top Gangplank, Jungle Gragas, Mid Galio, ADC Kaisa, Support Morgana
Wawa was of course skeptical: "It's actually Anivia on top? Is that appropriate? No, there's still a chance! What if the lanes are switched? I think it's possible. EDG has played this tactic before."

Rita shook her head. "I don't think it's likely. Before, lane swaps usually had obvious advantages. For example, if an AD and an AP swap lanes, the opponent will suffer a loss in runes. But Anivia and Taliyah are both AP."

"Also, Taliyah is a support hero, and is obviously more useful in the middle lane than in the side lane."

Entering the game screen, just as Rita said, Ice Bird went up.

The factory manager began to set the pace: "In this early game, keep the laning stable. Our goal is the little dragon. If there is no little dragon, we don't have to fight."

At this time, in the LPL lounge, everyone from RNG, IG, and RW was paying attention to the game.

A Guang muttered: "What's the strategy of this single ice bird?"

Jackeylove: "Let me ask you again, Jiang Chenglu, what is the use of Ice Bird in the top lane?"

Theshy responded: "Believe in Brother Mozi."

King Ning was shocked: "Oh my god, you actually said that."

Ah Guang said, "I think it's okay to say this. I believe Brother Mozi!"

Others echoed:
"Yes, just believe it and it will be over. No need to think so much."

"Do your best and obey destiny."

"I have always believed in him."

LPL has never been so united!
No matter how big the grudges are in normal times, at this time everyone will put aside their grudges and unite as one.

The first wave of troops is coming!

Su Mo came online, but the Captain did not appear at level 1, obviously hiding in the bushes.

Su Mo walked forward and placed a ward in the bush in the middle. Sure enough, the captain was inside, and there was a gunpowder barrel!

Su Mo pretended to go up and grab the gunpowder barrel, but the captain fired two barrels in a row, and Ice Bird retreated, dodging it easily.

Su Mo turned around and wanted to fight back, so the captain had to give up the bush in the middle and hide back at his side.

Wawa commented: "Smeb is very experienced. He can set up a ward in the middle bush and then retreat. The bush on this side is safe. He can rely on the bush to survive the disadvantageous period."

In the middle lane, Taliyah and Galio pushed each other's troops, without even the desire to fight back.

In the bottom lane, Morgana on the opposite side used the W skill at level 1, so Meiko took advantage of Kaisa's attempt to last hit and pushed her away with a W skill, causing Kaisa to lose a minion, and he didn't forget to show an expression.

The director gave a close-up of Deft. He smiled with the corners of his mouth raised.

So the comments in the live broadcast room were all:
"This is a secret signal! Meiko sent a secret signal to Deft."

"So, is Deft going to start acting?"

"He won't suddenly go crazy and rush up to give one to you, will he?"

"It's hard to say who gave it to whom."

The game lasted three minutes. In the top lane, Su Mo's Anivia reached level three first. While Gangplank was finishing off the enemy, he threw a Q skill at him.

The Captain quickly moved, but just as he was about to get out of the trajectory of Anivia's Q skill, he was stuck by an ice wall. He was stuck back and controlled. Anivia followed up with an E skill, dealing double damage!
