LOL: What is a concept player?

Chapter 299 Even playing a weak hero, I can still beat you guys. What else do you have to complain about?

In an instant, many IG fans felt as if their hearts were being squeezed tightly by a giant hand, making it hard for them to breathe.

Watching Chu Ran, this angel, get fatter and fatter, a sense of desperate helplessness welled up inside me.

Now that EDG has taken down the Baron, how can IG defend against EDG's next offensive?

Suddenly, many of the chicken giblets frantically bit their lower lips, their attitude towards the current situation pessimistic.

If we lose this match, EDG will have match point.

At this moment, Su Xiaoluo's heart was in her throat backstage, and she felt cold sweat pouring out of her body.

"We can still fight! Don't rush, Ning! Just defend for one wave and let them take away the Baron buff!"

Upon hearing Ning Mazi's furious roar, which was radiating an extreme heat, Rooike quickly tried to comfort him.

"Damn it, Jackey, can't you do something useful? Are you saving your Flash for the New Year?!"

Ning Mazi roared anxiously, "Just let it go, we can just defend the high ground!"

Soon, IG took the initiative to retreat and hide!

At the same time, under Chu Tian's command, EDG had already started a 4-1 split push.

Because he had the Baron seed, Flandre solo-pushed the bottom lane.

"Let's see if we can open it directly. If we do, then we'll open it. I'm invincible now, and the other side can't withstand my damage."

"If we can't open it, let's take down all of the enemy's outer towers first!" Chu Ran said quickly.

"Wait a minute, wait for Flash, then I'll Flash in!"

As Mala Xiangguo finished speaking, all of IG's outer towers were taken down.

EDG's economy suddenly took an 8000 gold lead, but since Flash had no cooldown, Chu Ran and the others chose to retreat.

"Oh, EDG didn't choose to force their way onto the high ground. They went straight back to base to replenish their supplies. Chu Shen immediately bought a Zhonya's Hourglass during his recall. This Kayle is invincible!"

Guan Zeyuan was very excited, "But IG was very smart. They didn't fight for their fourth dragon, so even if EDG took the earth dragon, the Elder Dragon wouldn't spawn for the time being."

"But how are they going to deal with Chu Shen, this angel? I feel that there's no point in continuing this competition at this point."

Hearing Guan Zeyuan's words, Miller nodded and chimed in, "That's right. IG failed to take down EDG in the early game. Now they just need to see if they can kill Chu Shen, the Angel, or they won't have a chance at all."

"EDG's summoner spells are all on cooldown. They're controlling vision around Baron Nashor now. This second Baron will decide the outcome!"

At 28 minutes and 32 seconds into the game, seeing EDG controlling the Baron jungle, the IG players were extremely anxious.

However, the constant pressure from the minion waves was already overwhelming them, not to mention that the jungle vision was completely obscured.

"Give way! We'll fight in front of the mid lane high ground later!" Rooike roared.

They're going to fight at the Dragon Pit now, and they have to keep clearing vision inside. If one of them gets caught, it's game over.

Why not wait until EDG pushes the Baron Nashor onto the high ground, then have them fight in the mid lane? If they win, they might be able to push back in one fell swoop!
Upon hearing Rooike's suggestion, Ning Mazi and the others agreed.

Seeing that IG had given up the Baron, countless fans were almost in tears.

"Damn it! What are you IG doing?! You can't let this Baron go! Go for Baron and fight it!"

"Rooike, TheShy, keep it up! Top top laners and mid laners from our LCK, prove that our LCK region is the strongest!"

In the LCK commentary booth, several Koreans were roaring their hearts out.

At this moment, all the viewers around the world held their breath, watching the game intently, afraid of missing any detail.

A moment later, the roar of Baron Nashor echoed through Summoner's Rift.

"Wow! IG has given up on this Baron Nashor; they're planning to defend their high ground!"

"But EDG definitely won't let IG have an easy time. They pushed the minion waves forward in a 1-3-1 formation. The minion waves on these three lanes, which were buffed by the Baron buff, are making things very difficult for IG."

"IG needs to make a move, otherwise all three lanes will be destroyed!"

At this moment, sweat beaded on the foreheads of all the IG players, and the team's voice chat was filled with tension.

They wanted to take down Chu Ran, but EDG kept feeding minions with the Baron buff by pressing 131 and pulling them back to whittle down the high ground.

In this situation, they only have one option: to open the mid lane and force Aatrox and Kayle to come and fight them in a team fight.

"Go down their mid lane!"

However, while Ning Mazi was roaring, Meiko was also yelling in the team voice chat: "Ran-ge, just start!"

"A wave in the middle lane!"

Chu Ran didn't hesitate and was too lazy to waste time arguing with IG.

In an instant, as if they had planned it together, both sides moved towards the middle lane at the same time, and all the spectators held their breath!

"My God! The two sides are going to have a decisive team fight in the mid lane!" Miller exclaimed. "Both sides are getting impatient and want to get off work early!"

At that moment, on the screen, Ning Mazi sent a signal into the EDG crowd.

The original plan was to create a numbers advantage in the mid lane, but unexpectedly, Chu Ran Angel walked over by herself.

It's too late to say, then soon!
Without thinking twice, Ning Mazi charged in with his EQ combo, his target Chu Ran's angel.

Crashed!

The hero appears!

On the screen, Galio and Jarvan IV's ultimate abilities were both aimed at Chu Ran's Angelic Watering, followed closely by Rumble's ultimate ability.

Suddenly, the area around the central high ground was thrown into chaos.

"My God! Ning initiated the team fight! But Chu Shen's Angel has Zhonya's Hourglass, which directly avoided countless damage and skills from IG!"

"It's over. IG was trying to press them down, but Chu Shen is invincible as soon as he gets up!"

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, a golden sphere appeared on Chu Ran's body.

When Rooike saw this scene, his pupils dilated violently; he knew it was all over.

The invincible angel is protected by Morgana's shield, so they have absolutely no way to deal with her.

Even on EDG's side, Chu Ran's other teammates didn't need to deal any damage.

In a flash, Chu Ran activated his E skill, his angelic hands flapping rapidly like butterfly wings.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Prince Galio and his companions' health was plummeting.

In just a few breaths, Ning Mazi's prince collapsed to the ground.

He stared at his gray screen, his pockmarked face turning bright red.

"Fuck you, you idiot hero! How come this hero has such high damage despite wearing all those special effects gear?!"

"EDG-Easy has killed IG-Ning!"

When the kill notification appeared, gasps of surprise rippled through the LPL commentary booth.

Such a powerful prince, and he was killed in an instant?

"My goodness! Chu Shen's angelic damage melted Ning Wang away!"

"Is this the divine-equipped angel?! The damage is terrifying!"

Seeing the terrifying angel so directly for the first time during the competition left countless viewers speechless.

Many of the chicken giblets felt their palms sweating profusely, and some dared not continue watching.

But the next second, Rooike successfully taunted Chu Ran with a W flash, and excitedly roared, "I landed my W, instantly killing the Angel!"

TheShy and Jackeylove both flashed to follow, but at that very moment...

Meiko's cauldron suddenly removed the taunt from Chu Ran, and then she used both Bird Shield and Redemption.

Seeing this, both TheShy and Jackeylove were somewhat taken aback.

"What the hell are you doing? What kind of game is this?"

With the ultimate ability and Morgana's shield, even the support can save you; you can't kill her even after all your skills have been used.

Given the current situation, all we can do is wait for the base to explode.

"My God! Meiko's crucial crucible, Xiangguo flashed and used his ultimate, Meiko's Rakan also used RW flash, and Flandre's Aatrox even E'd to the high ground to flank!"

"But it seems he doesn't have a chance to show his skills, Chu Shen's injury!"

On the screen, Chu Ran's angel was constantly slapping, and with every two or three slaps, someone from IG kept dying.

"EDG-Easy has killed IG-Rooike!"

"EDG-Easy has killed IG-Jackeylove!"

"EDG-Easy has killed IG-TheShy!"

"Qudre kill!"

"Leagendry!"

When the voice messages of quadra kills and godlike performances appeared, the scene and the live broadcast room went completely crazy, and the huge Incheon Gymnasium became a boiling sea.

"A quadra kill! It happened in an instant! Chu Shen's Angel got a quadra kill!"

"Imp has pushed down the mid lane inhibitor. Pentakill! The first pentakill in the World Championship Finals!"

At that moment, Guan Zeyuan was so excited that he stood up from the commentary seat, feeling as if he was about to witness history again.

On the big screen, Baolan's Tahm Kench simply stopped running away and remained motionless.

"Oh! If Baolan gets another pentakill, they're doomed to lose. In the end, he'll become a witness to this history!"

A moment later, Chu Ran's angel swiftly brought down his blade, instantly taking down Bao Lan's Tahm Kench.

At that moment, the awe-inspiring game announcement suddenly rang out.

"Penta kill!"

"ACE!"

The sound of a pentakill echoed from Summoner's Rift and then spread throughout the entire region.

The scene before their eyes and the sounds around them were intensely stimulating everyone's visual and auditory nerves, making them feel excited and trembling all over.

They were incredibly excited; they had witnessed history once again.

In an instant, the scene turned into a boiling ocean, with deafening cheers sweeping towards Chu Ran and the rest of EDG.

EDG fans held up glow sticks and support signs, their faces flushed with excitement like the sun, and they were shouting at the top of their lungs!

"EDG! EDG—!"

Not only them, but also the commentators in the European and American commentary booths stared wide-eyed, clutching their heads in disbelief at what they were seeing, feeling as if their scalps were about to explode.

"My God! Easy—! He got a pentakill in the World Championship finals! What a monster he is!"

"How could anyone possibly defeat someone like this! Even God would tremble before him!"

"The Lord created a terrifying human being and brought him into this world!"

Their roars shocked the vast number of European and American viewers, who stared at the kill notifications on the big screen, feeling even more astonished.

There's a reason why their regional teams lost to such a monster.

Meanwhile, in the LCK commentary booth, several Korean commentators looked on in amazement, completely dumbfounded.

"Pizza! Complete Pizza! Easy got a pentakill! He got a pentakill in the finals of the All-Awakening Grand Finals! This man is terrifying!"

"I can't think of anyone else who could stop this man, only Lee Sang-hyeok at his peak!"

Seeing this scene, countless South Koreans felt terrible.

They couldn't even beat the teams from their own region, and as a result, IG's Korean duo, on whom they had placed high hopes, suffered a crushing defeat!

Is their LCK region going to be completely dominated by this man?
At 31 minutes and 12 seconds into the match, IG's crystal was transformed into fireworks that bloomed on the big screen and remained frozen in the air.

"My God! Congratulations to EDG! They defeated IG again in the second game, successfully taking the match point and making history by achieving a pentakill in the World Championship finals!"

"Now, this team called EDG is just one step away from winning the World Championship again. If they win just one more game, they will become the second team to win consecutive world championships!"

"And won his second Grand Slam!"

Guan Zeyuan's voice cracked slightly, but he continued to roar, showing no concern for his throat.

"That's right! This is our LPL's number one seed. Let's congratulate EDG team again! They've taken the match point at 2-0!" Miller shouted, raising his arms in celebration.

Wang Duoduo, standing to the side, was even more excited: "The land is so beautiful, it makes heroes from all over the world bow down!"

"Heroes of the world are as numerous as carp crossing a river, but none can surpass him; the name of the God of Chu is known to ten thousand!"

Their loud and clear praise echoed throughout the commentary booth and the live broadcast rooms of various LPL events, causing the popularity to rise rapidly. The barrage of comments scrolled wildly without stopping.

[66666! This is EDG!]

[Hater! Stop talking nonsense!]

Who said EDG can't win with this lineup? Come out now!

Wow, is Kayle really that powerful? Let me play a game of League of Legends with her right now!

Bro, don't play this game, it's all about the player's ID.

[From 1-0 down to 3-3 down, from 3-3 down to 5-5 down!]

[I have no idea what Chicken Gizzard was bragging about. He used to brag all the time, why isn't he doing it anymore?]

...

The comments section was buzzing with excitement. Many fans of the show were furious at these remarks, but they didn't know how to refute them.

All I can do is use that incredibly stubborn mouth to believe that IG will come back from 2-3 down.

But when the MVP stats for this game were displayed on the big screen, many casual players immediately lost confidence.

The MVP award naturally went to Chu Ran.

KDA: 10-0-6
Damage: 75368
Damage percentage: 41.7%
Economic lead in counterpart: 6352
hiss!
When this data was released, almost all the viewers were stunned.

Such stats are rare to see even in high-ranked ranked games, let alone in the World Championship finals!
"My goodness, I was shocked when I saw this! Chu Shen's angel data may not be the best ever to be seen, but it is definitely unprecedented!"

Guan Zeyuan, an Angel player, said that seeing this scene, he still has time to quit the game!

"That's right, Chu Shen is truly amazing. No one expected that an Angel could get a pentakill on the World Championship finals stage and achieve such a terrifying record. Only Chu Shen could do that. Let's give EDG another round of applause!"

As Guan Zeyuan and Wang Duoduo finished their impassioned speeches, the huge venue and the live broadcast rooms for various events once again became incredibly lively.

The moment the match ended, netizens on forums such as Hupu and Kangba were already having heated discussions about it.

[Puls! IG is really bad. They can't even beat EDG with their weak mid and jungle, and they even let Kayle get a pentakill.]

[I think we can congratulate EDG now, congratulations to Chu Shen for winning the double championship.]

Holy crap, our LPL is about to produce a double champion, and a champion in both top lane and mid lane!

...

The thought of Chu Ran becoming a double champion brought tears to the eyes of many viewers.

Who says the LPL doesn't have players who can rival Faker?

They, the LPL, also have their own Lee Sang-hyeok!

Of course, these words immediately infuriated Chicken Fan and Han Xiaozi, who then started spouting self-deceiving nonsense about a 2-to-3 comeback. At the same time, after the IG members returned to the backstage dressing room, everyone saw that Rooike's hands were trembling uncontrollably.

He wasn't trembling because he was afraid of Chu Ran!
The match has now reached match point. If they don't play well in the next game, then even though he has worked so hard to get into the finals, the championship will still slip through his fingers.

The thought of this made Rooike tremble with fear, his lips shaking.

After playing professionally for so many years, Rooike really can't be sure if today will be the year with the best chance of his career.

The others also looked dejected, like wilted eggplants, and each of them lay on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, falling into an eerie silence.

Ning Mazi's face was flushed, and his burning aura filled the entire backstage dressing room. He gritted his teeth and frantically pounded the sofa, roaring, "Damn it! Why can't we beat them? Why can't we take down them in the early stages?!"

"Jackey, what are you doing? We could have won the early team fights, but that Kayle couldn't get ahead, and I don't know what you were doing in those team fights, letting the enemy Aatrox and Xayah carry the game, which led to us losing the match!"

Ning Mazi is really angry now. If there were a thermometer to measure his temperature, it would definitely be found that Ning Mazi has a high fever that won't go down.

If he could, Ning Mazi would just want Jackeylove to experience the enthusiasm of Northeasterners and kill him with a single punch.

"I," Jackyelove wanted to say something, but ultimately didn't, and instead sighed, "mine."

"stop fighting!"

Just then, Su Xiaoluo, whose face was quite unpleasant, interrupted Ning Mazi's continued roaring and immediately said, "What's the use of arguing? Right now, your focus is not on arguing about whose fault it is, but on figuring out how to win the next match."

"What? You all look like you've been beaten into submission. So what if EDG got match point first? Don't you have any confidence in beating them?"

Su Xiaoluo's words only made things worse, reminding Rooike and the others of their past encounters with EDG. Indeed, they had never beaten Chu Ran, which made them even more apprehensive.

At this moment, head coach Kim Fat Pig clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, cheer up! The problem in the last game was my draft picks. I should have realized that Galio was a trap, and that the opponent deliberately let us have it."

Throughout the match, Rooike had lane priority in the mid lane, but he didn't have an absolute advantage; his Galio simply couldn't completely shut down Chu Ran.

If they switch to a stronger mid laner, Chu Ran's Kayle won't be able to stay under the tower. But the problem is that if they see Rooike pick another mid laner, EDG definitely won't pick Kayle.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Jin Feizhu believes that Galio was a trap set by EDG for them, and coupled with their own poor performance, they ultimately fell completely into this trap and had no way to climb out.

After the angels' equipment levels were all developed ahead of schedule, Jin Feizhu knew that this match was probably over.

"But in the next round, we'll each use what we're best at. Now that we've come this far, we have to do our best. And until the very last moment, nobody knows who will win or lose!"

"We're IG, the fearless, reckless team. Do you think we're afraid of EDG? We'll fight them whether we can beat them or not!"

This is our IG!

After hearing Jin Feizhu's words, although the Rooike team's mentality had not fully recovered, they had managed to recover a little.

Indeed, at this point in time, if they themselves have given up, then there's no point in playing the third game.

"Dude, let's just grab them and take them down, what's there to be afraid of? It's just swimming back, I'll charter a cruise ship for you guys." Jackeylove waved his hand, and although it was a bit of a joke, his words still eased the tense atmosphere in the lounge.

At the same time, on the other side, in the EDG backstage area.

Meiko and the others were excitedly discussing the last match, while Imp, Flandre, and Spicy Pot's legs were shaking uncontrollably.

They were both afraid and excited.

Now that they have match point, they are about to take the throne that represents the pinnacle of League of Legends professional players this year. However, they are also worried about what will happen if they don't play well and IG comes back from a 2-0 deficit to win 3-2.

"Damn it, pfft, what are you shaking for? Deft didn't shake last year."

Upon hearing Chu Ran's words, Imp's slightly tense gaze suddenly sharpened. "Damn it, I'm not shaking at all! I'm just excited! Deft, that bastard, definitely isn't excited!"

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Imp immediately gripped his thighs tightly with both hands.

Seeing this, Mingkai breathed a sigh of relief. He had taken the most blame while playing with Chu Ran and the others. If they had lost the last game, his private messages would probably have been bombarded with criticism by now.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

"Alright, everyone, calm down. As long as we play steadily, we can win this year's championship!"

"If we win the next game, EDG will become only the second team in history to have two World Championship titles!"

Mingkai was incredibly excited. He won the championship last year, and he also deserves credit for winning the championship as a coach this year. So, Mingkai is a double champion.

"Xiao Ran, what do you think?"

Hearing Mingkai's words, Chu Ran smiled, her expression extremely relaxed. "This isn't something you can win by playing normally. By the way, let me post something on Weibo first."

After saying that, Chu Ran immediately took out his phone, opened Weibo, and found that Weibo was already in an uproar. The news of EDG defeating IG 2-0 had become a hot topic on Weibo.

The "chicken offal" and "GSL" groups acted like they were mentally unstable, sending people to bombard any comments congratulating EDG.

[Damn it, can this son of a bitch shut up? IG hasn't lost yet, they've come back from 0-2 down to win 3-2, don't you understand?]

[IG was careless in the last two games, you know? From the third game onwards, IG will be serious!]

[I'll let EDG win two games, then come back from 0-2 down to win 3-2, completely crushing your confidence and that of EDG!]

[I don't even know what's with the congratulations here. There's no history of a team coming back from 2-0 down to win 3-2, right?]

Amidst this uproar, Chu Ran's latest Weibo post during halftime suddenly appeared on the trending topics page.

Weibo account EDG-Easy:

[Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, it's not easy for anyone, everyone stop arguing. Even playing a weak hero, you can still dominate the opponent. I don't know what you haters are still dissatisfied with?]
Your mouths are like rocks in a latrine, stinking and hard!

The moment Chu Ran's Weibo post appeared, it garnered countless comments and likes from fans, and many people burst out laughing.

[Haha, that was way too close!]

[Okay, I support it! This kind of "chicken-jaw GSL" group should be completely wiped out!]

[Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, it's not easy for anyone, give me some face, Chicken Offal will voluntarily leave the internet.]

[I can't believe it! It has to be Chu Shen. Which other contestant would dare to act like that? Well, our Chu Shen does! Haters, what are you waiting for? You're not happy? Then shut up!]

May your whole family die suddenly, may you have a child without a vagina, you beast!!

[Is there a knife? I'm going backstage right now to stab that beast to death! I can't take it anymore!]

[I have depression. Can I tell Ran Chu that this Weibo post of his has worsened my depression?]

[You have depression; I think your brain's been eaten by zombies.]

[You fucking Dave, go home and check if your house has been invaded by zombies.]

For a moment, many haters were so angry they felt like their lungs were about to explode, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

Besides cheering on IG, what they're doing now is bombarding all social media accounts related to EDG, but it's not very effective at all.

What they can't get in the competition, they can't get in the online arena either.

Soon, the halftime break of the second game ended, and when IG and EDG returned to the stage, countless eyes around the world were focused on them.

Especially Chu Ran, who looked so handsome under the spotlight, made Uzi, who was sitting in the front row of the audience, furious again. He started biting his fingers and said, "Damn it, is this bastard really going to get a second championship?"

"No way, are all these teams this bad this year? Seriously, Jackeylove is a bit off. If I were in Jackeylove's position, I could easily beat EDG."

Uzi's words not only showed a bit of disdain for Jackeylove, but also a hint of sourness.

If he had the same lineup as Jackeylove when he debuted, he would have won countless championships by now, let alone just one.

It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.

Sun Yalong and the others sitting next to him remained silent, though they were internally complaining.

Hearing the endless cheers for EDG from the crowd, they all felt a little uneasy.

IG, give it your all!

At this moment, the viewership of the live broadcast rooms for major events has exceeded 30 million, which is on par with the viewership of last year's finals. Originally, this year's viewership was definitely not as high as last year's.

But this year is an LPL internal battle, and it's being played on the home turf of LPL's arch-rival, LCK. When IG advanced to the finals, it immediately ignited the world.

Now, the most crucial match of the finals has arrived, and naturally, the hype has reached its peak.

However, upon closer inspection, it can be seen that some South Korean fans have already gotten up and left the stands, feeling that there's no point in continuing to watch the match.

On Korean websites, many Koreans expressed great disappointment.

[Sigh, LCK has really declined. Even our Korean duo is no match for Easy.]

[Damn it, has LCK really gotten worse?]

[No need to watch anymore, this Chinese guy is going to win the double championship, damn it! Winning the double championship in our home arena, it's a disgrace!]

IG's performance has greatly disappointed many Koreans. After all, IG is currently the team that best represents the level of their LCK region, but now they have been defeated like this.

For the LCK region, which has been the leader for so many years, this is simply unacceptable.

At this moment, the Korean commentators in the LCK booth also began to adjust their mindset and start thinking of ways to help IG.

"IG, keep it up! I think IG needs to change their strategy. They can't keep targeting EDG's mid laner anymore because it's completely ineffective. You could say that even Rooike's laning ability is no match for Easy."

"Yes, I think IG could consider swapping their top and mid lanes, letting TheShy face off against Easy. I think with TheShy's laning skills, he might be able to suppress Easy!"

Their words immediately made many Korean fans' eyes light up.

Don't say it, don't say it!
At the same time, in the LPL commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan and his two companions still had rosy cheeks and hoarse voices.

"Alright, welcome back everyone. This is the live broadcast of the third game of the 2018 League of Legends World Championship Finals. EDG is currently leading IG 2-0 and has reached match point!"

"If EDG wins this game again, they will make LPL history once more, becoming the only team in LPL history to win two world championships, and Chu Shen and Meiko will also achieve their second Grand Slam!"

"That's right, and this game is crucial for IG. If IG wins this game, they will still have a chance to win the finals!" Miller said excitedly. "I think we don't need to say much more. Let's turn the camera to the stands and see the draft picks for both teams in the third game!"

In an instant, the camera switched again, showing the BP interface.

In this match, IG took the initiative to choose the red side. EDG immediately blocked Rumble, Kennen, and Jayce, while IG chose Taliyah, Aatrox, and Mlxg's Morgana.

"Oh, IG banned Morgana. I was really annoyed by Xiangguo's Morgana in the last game. Her immunity to crowd control is really a headache. So, will EDG first pick Kai'Sa or Rakan?"

"In the end, they chose Rakan, so IG picked Xayah without any problem. But here comes the second pick! IG's classic draft strategy: Irelia, who can switch between top and mid!!"

Miller exclaimed, his face showing excitement, "We don't need to introduce them much, you should know IG's two signature top and mid laners, Irelia and Jayce. I personally feel that this Irelia is for the mid lane, because Rooike's Galio was so heavily countered in the last game, and Kayle wasn't banned either, I don't think IG will pick Galio again."

"It's hard to say," Wang Duoduo said, rubbing his chin. "Let's see what heroes EDG picks for their second and third picks."

At that moment, in EDG's team voice chat, Mingkai offered his opinion, "Should we pick Galio, Camille, or Galio and Jarvan IV? If the opponent doesn't pick them, we should."

"It's not a good idea to let Chu Shen play Galio, it's a bit too much of a utility champion, Chu Shen is a carry." Flandre frowned, his brain quickly processing the situation, "Let me play Galio, I'll play top lane Galio."

"Should we pick Kai'Sa as the third pick?"

"If Kai'Sa is picked as the third pick, Camille and Jarvan IV should be banned in the second round."

Top lane Galio is playable, and Mingkai didn't argue with that, but Galio doesn't synergize well with certain champions, making him a bit weak.

"Xiao Ran, what do you think?"

"Let's pick someone to enter the fray, and Pupu can play another AD carry."

Upon hearing this, Imp immediately exclaimed, "Great! I have a lot of strong AD carries, so if they ban Kai'Sa, I'll pick Twitch!"

Having made this decision, EDG's second and third picks quickly surprised many viewers.

"Oh my god, what kind of draft is this from EDG? They picked Camille and Galio, what does that mean? Are they trying to get Chu Shen to play Galio?"

Guan Zeyuan's eyes widened. "Although this combination is possible, it doesn't fit EDG's style. Chu Shen should be the type to carry the team!"

"They probably picked this combination because they were afraid IG would take it, and it is indeed a top-tier combination. I think it was a good choice, but it just puts more of the carry responsibility on their teammates."

"The other players on the EDG team are capable of carrying the team!"

Wang Duoduo's analysis relieved many EDG fans.

Indeed, Chu Ran isn't the only one in EDG who can carry the team.

When EDG picked Galio and Camille, the expressions of IG's players, including Kim Jong-un and Rooike, changed slightly, clearly not expecting EDG's draft pick.

“Their picks are like this, which means we had to ban Morgana. Otherwise, we could have picked her ourselves.” Jackeylove had a headache. “I think we should pick Taric. EDG used Taric to counter Galio before, and it worked quite well.”

"I think it's a good idea, we'll do as Jackey says." Ning Mazi nodded. "I'm not in a rush to jungle, I'll just take the gem!"

When IG picked the Gem, Guan Zeyuan and the others praised it, because they had thought that Gem would be picked during their analysis.

"Just as we expected, IG picked Taric. Now both sides have flexible picks in their first three picks. For example, EDG has Camille, who can be used in the top and jungle, and IG has Irelia, who can be used in the top and mid."

"This is how the two teams draft their champions. Both teams have such deep champion pools that they often have this kind of flexible drafting style!"

"Now let's take a look at the second round of ban/pick for both sides!"

Amidst laughter and conversation, the second round of business proposals (BP) was launched under the watchful eyes of countless people.

EDG directly targeted Ning in their first and second picks, banning Kindred and Xin Zhao, while IG targeted Imp, banning Kai'Sa and Tristana.

Their fourth move was a decisive selection of the barrel, making them Ning Mazi's signature hero.

"Locked up! Ning's Gragas!!" Miller's tone suddenly rose, "Now let's see EDG's last two picks, oh my god, Imp's signature hero, Twitch, is here!"

"So what should Flandre choose? Camille should still be the jungler, but I think Urgot is a good choice against Irelia."

However, when it came to the fifth pick, EDG hesitated, and Chu Ran's questioning voice could be heard in their team voice chat.

"Do you think this Irelia should be played in the mid or top lane?"

“I think we should get going,” Mingkai replied.

"Brother Kai, I think it's mid lane."

"Then why don't you just pick a champion that counters Irelia?" Meiko chuckled. "But the enemy team can see your pick and then switch."

Chu Ran pondered for a few seconds, then said again, "That's not the problem. I think the other side will switch lanes."

For a moment or two, Mingkai and the others were stunned. Although Chu Ran was guessing, it was not impossible. After all, they had played this kind of top and mid lane swap before, and it was indeed a very common tactic.

Of course, the fundamental reason why he can play like this is because Chu Ran is good at both top lane and mid lane.

Another reason is that it's difficult to lane in the mid lane. On the contrary, it's easier to lane against the enemy top laner when you switch to the top lane. This is where the top-mid lane swap comes in.

"Then let's fight too!" Spicy Hot Pot exclaimed, "Holy Gun Bro's Galio is more comfortable in the mid lane. Rooike on the other side can't beat you, Chu Shen, so he might really switch lanes."

"Damn, I don't think it's just a possibility, it's a certainty." Imp shared his opinion. "Everyone knows TheShy is a fan of Chu Shen, right? This could be the last game of the finals for IG. Rookie lost two games to Chu Shen. Now that you're suggesting switching lanes, will TheShy agree immediately?"

"Fans beating up their idols at the World Championship? That's interesting."

Meiko had barely finished speaking when Mingkai struck him on the top of the head.

What are you implying, you little brat?
"Then this round will go as he wishes, after all, I'm someone who likes to help others achieve their dreams." Chu Ran sighed, "Give me his vampire."

"???"

At this moment, Chu Ran's words left Ming Kai and the others somewhat taken aback.

But a few seconds later, when the vampire was chosen, the audience around the world was even more stunned.

"My God! What is this?! Are EDG's top and mid laners all AP? And it's Flandre's Vladimir. Is this a case of picking instead of banning? Did they know TheShy would pick Vladimir in a do-or-die game?"

Guan Zeyuan's eyes widened. "So the Irelia is playing mid lane? TheShy picked Ryze!!"

As the wanderer was locked in place, countless onlookers gasped in shock.

Vampire vs. Wanderer: another classic matchup. Can this young Flandre handle it? Back then, there was an old man named 957 who had his moral compass shattered after being beaten like this.

However, he was playing the wanderer, while the vampire was Chu Ran.

Just as they were discussing it, the lineups of both sides were swapped and re-emerged before everyone's eyes, leaving the audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room extremely surprised!
EDG (Blue Side): Top lane Galio, Jungle Camille, Mid lane Vladimir, Bot lane Twitch/Rakan.

IG (Red Side): Top lane Ryze, Jungle Gragas, Mid lane Irelia, Bot lane Xayah/Talisman.
