LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

At the competition site, the audience seats were already packed before the game even started. At a glance, EDG fans accounted for at least 80% of the people!
In the commentary booth, Jide, Wang Duoduo and Rita were ready.

I just saw the commentator say: "Hello audience friends, the fifth game week of the Spring Season is about to begin. Today is the first BO3, with the pride of our LPL, the double champion EDG, facing JDG!"

Wang Duoduo continued: "The feeling I get from this season is a combination of old and new. Old players are retiring or moving behind the scenes, while new players are growing rapidly and gradually becoming the backbone of the team."

"For example, the JDG top laner Zoom, who is about to play today, is a rapidly rising top laner with very good strength. Including JDG's mid laner, Yagao, who just came up from the secondary league and performed very well."

Rita agreed: "Indeed, now Zoom and Yagao are called the twin stars of JDG, which proves that everyone recognizes their strength very much."

"Just received news from the front, in this game, EDG will send Mozi to play top lane!"

Just by mentioning Su Mo, the audience became excited:

"Brother Mozi! Brother Mozi!"

On the stage, host Luo Xin appeared.

Behind the scenes, the EDG and JDG teams are entering the field and queuing up a few meters apart.

Su Mo glanced at JDG's side and the "slightly plump boy" Zoom standing at the front.

At this moment, Zoom also turned around to take a look, and Su Mo called out, "Zoom."

"Brother Mozi." Zoom responded.

Toothpaste asked curiously, "Do you know each other? Brother Mozi, you know this guy."

Su Mo smiled and said, "I've heard of him. He's quite capable. He's a future top laner."

"Oh shit!" Upon hearing this, the other JDG members were shocked.

These words came from Su Mo's mouth, which is different from what other people said casually.

Su Mo was observing Zoom's reaction. Zoom just smiled politely and didn't show any excitement.

This reminded Su Mo of a saying: "He who has thunder in his chest but a calm face can be worshiped as a general!"

It feels quite fitting to use this sentence to describe Zoom.

On the stage, Luo Xin briefly opened the conversation and invited the contestants from both sides:

"Now let's invite both teams to play, starting with JDG!"

"Top lane, Zoom!"

Zoom walked out of the aisle and headed straight for the center of the stage.

Zoom's various statistics were displayed on the screen. Although he was a newcomer, his statistics were already very impressive and basically among the top few.

"Jungler, Flawless!"

"Mid laner, Yagao!"

"ADC, Bvoy!"

"Assist, Lvmao!"

JDG's five starting players came on the court one after another, and the director gave close-ups. Zoom was obviously a leader and had a very leadership temperament.

Luo Xin continued: "Next, let's welcome, E! D! G!"

The EDG fans at the scene became agitated:

"Top lane, Mo!"

The audience cheered: "Brother Mozi! Brother Mozi!"

Su Mo appeared on the stage, and instantly, the popularity of the official live broadcast room began to soar!
After all, on most live streaming platforms, popularity is not just the number of viewers, but also the number of barrages, which represents the number of viewers and the activity of the audience.

As soon as Su Mo appeared on the stage, the barrage of comments was dense, and the popularity naturally soared.

"Jungle, Jiejie!"

"Mid, Scout!"

"ADC, Hope!"

"Assist, Meiko!"

All five EDG players also appeared on the stage.

After a brief appearance, the contestants from both sides came to the center of the stage, facing each other. Su Mo faced Zoom, shook hands, and then turned and walked towards their respective positions.

Su Mo sat down, put on headphones, and everything was ready!
The BP for the first game has begun!

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

BAN position situation:
EDG: Syndra, Corki, Galio

JDG: Neeko, Jayce, Zoe

I remember analyzing it: "Wow, both sides are targeting the mid laner, and of course the top laner. Jayce can play in both the mid and top lanes. As for Neeko, she can play in all three lanes."

"I didn't expect EDG to target Yagao so much. I thought they would pay more attention to Zoom."

Rita guessed: "I guess it's because Mozi is in the top lane, so EDG is not worried."

Enter the hero selection phase.

JDG on the blue side took Lissandra on the first floor.

Wang Duoduo commented: "Lissandra is currently the T0 in the mid-lane position. She is not weak in laning, but her roaming ability is too strong. Now the emphasis is on early-stage rhythm, and Lissandra is a perfect early-stage rhythm hero."

"Also, they can often deal tons of damage and control in team battles."

EDG got Leblanc and Kaisa on the first and second floors.

Rita analyzed: "Scout is very confident. After all, it is generally believed that Lissandra is a counter to Leblanc. Of course, this counter is usually shown in team battles."

"With Lissandra, Leblanc can't just go up and consume the enemy at will. She is likely to be controlled to death. During the laning phase, if Leblanc is more skilled, she may be able to gain an advantage."

JDG got EZ and Tam on the second and third floors.

EDG locked Nunu on the third floor!

I remember being a little surprised: "Nunu? This hero was reworked before last year's World Championship, but not many people played it. This should be the first time he appeared in LPL after the rework."

"Jiejie has his own understanding. Through my observation of Jiejie over this period of time, I found that he is very similar to Mozi. Although he may not be as talented, he also likes to try new things and study new routines and playing methods."

Entering the second round of BP, EDG banned Prince and Olaf.

JDG also banned Kennen and Lucian.

Rita muttered, "Lucian? EDG has already picked Kaisa, but they still want to ban Lucian. Why does it feel like they are banning Mozi's top lane Lucian? Could it be that Zoom wants to play Gangplank?"

EDG locked Kaisa on the fourth floor, while JDG got Gangplank and Lee Sin on the fourth and fifth floors.

Rita commented: "It's Gangplank, no wonder Lucian was banned. It's really hard to play in the lane. Now it depends on what hero Mozi will play in the top lane. It's worth looking forward to." At this moment, EDG got Nightmare on the fifth floor.

Wang Duoduo analyzed: "Top lane Nightmare? I remember that Mozi played Nightmare online before, and the effect was pretty good. Top lane Nightmare against Gangplank... there shouldn't be any problem."

"It's just that... Nightmare doesn't seem to be as good in the top lane as in the middle lane. It will be more troublesome if he wants to fly to the bottom lane."

After the heroes of both sides were determined, they began to adjust the lanes. What the audience and commentators did not expect was that EDG replaced Nightmare to the jungle position, while Nunu was in the top position!

At first everyone thought this was to confuse the opponent.

Neither side can change their lineup until the countdown enters the final twenty seconds:
Red side EDG: Top laner Nunu, jungler Nightmare, mid laner Leblanc, ADC Kaisa, support Alistar

JDG on the blue side: top laner Gangplank, jungle Lee Sin, mid laner Lissandra, ADCEZ, support Tam.

Now the commentator realized that he had made a mistake.

Wang Duoduo exclaimed: "It turns out to be the top laner Nunu? Huh?"

Rita explained: “I don’t think it’s completely unexpected. Like you just said, Nunu hasn’t had a chance to play in the game since the rework.”

"It proves that some more conventional ideas are not suitable for this hero. Often at this time, Mozi brother is needed to demonstrate and teach everyone how to play correctly."

Jide nodded: "You know what, Rita, what you said is indeed correct. Judging from past experience, it is true. Let's wait and see how Mozi uses the reworked Nunu to carry the game!"

Entering the game screen, Jiejie started to plan: "Brother Mozi, shall we follow the plan?"

Su Mo responded: "Well, let's follow the plan. If there are no major mistakes, there shouldn't be any problems."

In fact, during the BP just now, Su Mo told Jiejie his ideas.

On the other side, in the EDG lounge.

As soon as Abu returned to the lounge, Zzitai came over and asked, "What's going on? Top laner Nunu, I thought it was the jungler? How did you choose?"

Abu responded: "Xiao Mo wants to choose, he has his own way of playing... Mingkai, haven't you practiced Nunu yet?"

Hearing this, the factory manager was suddenly speechless. In fact, he had practiced it before, but the effect was not good, so he did not plan to use it in the competition.

But who would have thought that Su Mo took it out first!
It’s a good opportunity to see how Su Mo plays.

But the manager still said: "Nunu? I can play."

Abu nodded: "That's no problem, just explain it to us, explain it."

"Huh?" The factory manager was stunned. What was going on?
At this time, Iboy and Ray both looked over, waiting for the factory manager's explanation.
Entering the game screen, Su Mo's Nunu chose Doran's Ring when going out.

The director's camera was always on Nunu, not wanting to miss any details.

Wang Duoduo commented: "EDG seems to be planning to cause trouble. They want to fight a level 1 team fight. All five of them are going."

"Mozi's Nunu is also moving downwards, and LeBlanc is heading straight into the dragon pit. What are they planning to do?"

In the picture, three people of EDG except Leblanc and Nunu stood close to the wall of the dragon pit, seemingly waiting for someone. Leblanc was in the dragon pit.

Su Mo's Nunu, standing right in front of the dragon pit, suddenly gave an order: "Drive! Go!"

So Ahri placed a ward on the blue side's bottom lane triangle grass through the wall.

Sure enough, there was someone in the bush! The opposing Ezreal was in the bush, using his Q skill towards the dragon pit, while removing a ward and moving back. The support Tam also came over and left a ward in the bush.

At this moment, Nightmare, Kaisa and Minotaur rushed over together!
"The enemy is about to invade!" Green Hair reminded his teammates and retreated with EZ.

However, a huge snowball suddenly appeared, and Nunu pushed the snowball and rushed over quickly!

Wang Duoduo exclaimed: "So fast! Why does it feel like EZ and Tam are going to be left behind? The two chose to go down and wanted to return to the bottom lane tower.

But Nunu made an extreme turn and caught up with us, about to hit us!"

Tam used his flash and crashed into the wall. Nunu continued to adjust his direction and the snowball hit him, knocking Tam directly away.

EZ flashed to the other side and escaped. Meiko's Minotaur came up, flashed W, and pushed Tam back. Kaisa, Leblanc, and Nightmare followed up with output.

Although Tam clicked on the E skill at level 1 and activated the E skill to gain a shield, Nightmare also clicked on the E skill, triggering the fear effect, making Tam unable to move, and finally he was killed by Kaisa.

Hope cheered, "Nice! This feels like it's going to take off!"

Meiko joked: "Does that mean we can win without doing anything?"

Hope seemed very confident: "It's too much to say that I won without doing anything, but if you play around me, I will definitely win this game."

The game continued. Su Mo returned to the city for supplies and headed straight to the top lane. The soldiers were out, just in time for Su Mo to get to the top lane without missing any soldiers.

Wang Duoduo concluded: "This level 1 team fight was very profitable. We used Ezreal and Tam's flashes to kill Tam. After Nunu's revision, his W skill seems to be quite good for chasing and initiating team fights."

Rita analyzed: "I think it is used for ganking and small-scale teamfights. If it is a five-on-five situation, this way of starting a teamfight is a double-edged sword. If you don't handle it well, you will easily lose touch with the opponent and be hit back."

The camera was turned to the top lane, Su Mo's Nunu arrived at the line, and at the same time, the two sides' military lines met and were dealing damage to each other, and the Captain put down the gunpowder barrel.

The position of this gunpowder barrel is very important. If Su Mo goes up to attack with a basic attack, he will most likely be blown up by the gunpowder barrel.

However, Su Mo chose to push the snowball directly.

Wang Duoduo commented: "Let's see how Nunu will fight in the laning phase now. He pushes the snowball towards Gangplank. Is Gangplank going to detonate the gunpowder barrel? But it seems too late. He only hits once and Nunu hits him in the face!"

"Gunpick chose to walk into the bushes, but Nunu turned behind him. Gangpick moved around like crazy. Nunu... what was Nunu doing?"

Just when everyone thought Su Mo was going to hit the Captain with a snowball, Nunu made a 180-degree turn and pushed the snowball back.

The captain came out from the bushes, seeming a little confused.

But immediately, Nunu turned around again and rolled towards the captain.

I remember laughing: "Is this a joke? Why do I feel like Brother Mozi is just joking?"

After this rotation, the duration of the snowball was coming to an end. Su Mo crashed into the position between the ranged soldiers and the melee soldiers and then actively detonated it.

The three ranged soldiers with almost full health were killed, and the melee soldiers lost some health from each other and were also killed directly. A wave of soldiers was dealt with at once!
Wang Duoduo was astonished: "This can't be right! This is definitely the first time I've seen a hero who can clear an entire wave of soldiers with one skill at level 1. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it!"

"Isn't the damage of his snowball too high? He only uses one skill, level one!"

Wang Duoduo looked like he had seen a ghost.

The director provided a replay so that everyone could see more details.

Rita began to analyze carefully: "I know why Nunu turned around in a circle. You see, when Nunu turned around for the first time, the snowball pressed down the melee soldier, and the melee soldier lost health."

"He turned around and came back. This time he pressed down on the ranged soldiers. The ranged soldiers also lost health, and then exploded. He just happened to clear all the soldiers. These are all details!"

I remember being amazed: "I can only say that this is Brother Mozi. He always surprises us. Now Nunu's ability to push the line is so strong, and the Captain seems unable to stop him. Brother Mozi has a lot of room for subsequent operations."

Su Mo pushed the line of troops forward. Because of the assists in the level one team fight, he is now level two.

Zoom didn't expect this. He didn't expect Nunu to push the line so quickly.

So, taking advantage of his level advantage, Su Mo took the initiative to go to the captain. (End of this chapter)
