LOL: What is a concept player?

Chapter 331 Another championship night, congratulations to Faker for winning the right to challenge me!
When Faker's interview reached the LPL, it immediately caused a stir and made countless FPX fans ecstatic.

[See that? Even the most devoted fans and chicken offal should kneel down! The three-time world champion has spoken up: What kind of team is IG this year?]

[The filial son and the chicken offspring are really causing a mess. Surely no one actually believes any LPL team can beat FPX this year.]

[Haha, Faker himself confirmed it, let's wait and see if those sycophants and chicken offspring get their comeuppance.]

As a Faker fan, I'd love to see Ran go to MSI and embarrass himself, so Faker can get his revenge. But seeing him get defeated by FPX would also be great.

[You haters really made me laugh, and now that the rain has stopped and the sun is shining, science enthusiasts and Han Kuo-yu fans think they're all right again.]

Indeed, you should all go back to your sewers. You defeated opponents of Chu Shen are still spouting nonsense here.

Before long, countless netizens on major forums such as Anti-Fan Bar and Hupu were in an uproar, with fierce arguments erupting over the upcoming FPX vs. IG finals.

Neither side would back down, so they started exchanging insults about each other's parents and family trees. FPX even created a GIF of it.

That is, a little figure wearing the FPX logo stepped directly on a little figure wearing the IG logo, which was then widely circulated and instantly became a hit across the entire internet.

Furthermore, they've brought out a new bible—'What does a double championship prove? It only means that Ran encountered the right meta and teammates last year and the year before. I don't know why Ran is using this meta to explain his double championship. I'm thinking, even Faker, the three-time champion, has declined in the last two years, hasn't he?'

These words resonated with many viewers. If even a team as strong as Faker and SKT can be defeated, why shouldn't Chu Ran lose?

That doesn't make sense.

As public opinion grew, even other clubs started to engage in online marketing, just like RNG. They officially retweeted FPX's Weibo post and publicly supported FPX, including Uzi and Ning.

Given Chu Ran's current status and popularity in the LPL, no team wants him to collapse in an instant.

can only say.

With Chu Ran gone, other clubs and players can get a bigger slice of the pie. Otherwise, all the attention will be taken by Chu Ran and IG, and how will the other teams survive?

In a short time, in polls conducted by netizens on various forums, FPX's support rate reached a terrifying 76%, completely crushing IG's support rate.

At the same time, countless fans of Chu Ran and others were relentlessly attacked, giving the impression of being public enemies.

People like Ran Chu, who hogging the spotlight without actually doing their business, should be kicked out of the LPL.

[All that filial sons can do is call him the "Double Champion," but I really think the LPL double championship was solely his contribution?]

To be honest, as a complete bystander, who wins the Spring Split this year isn't important, but whether or not Ranchu wins is very important!

Yes, Ranchu can't win any more championships. If he does, the LPL might as well disband.

Such comments are becoming more and more frequent, and some people are even sending private messages to Chu Ran and others, making all sorts of threats and intimidation.

The core objective is the same: to prevent Chu Ran and the others from winning the championship in this final.

The IG club's training room, three days before the finals.

Meiko stared at the constant stream of private messages, feeling numb all over. She slumped in front of the computer screen, where she had just shut down the live stream because of the chat messages.

"I'm really numb, Ran-ge. These people want me to forfeit this final match immediately, or they'll make my whole family die."

He had barely finished speaking when Jackyelove immediately chimed in, "No, buddy, you're only scratching the surface. How about you take a look at mine? I guarantee you'll be completely overwhelmed in three seconds."

"That's an exaggeration, Chu Shen. The LPL would love for you to die." Rooike clicked his tongue, but to be honest, if he and Chu Ran were opponents, he would also want Chu Ran to fall.

After all, the LPL's resources are limited. If Chu Ran eats it all, what will the others eat?
They can only survive on the northwest wind.

Even someone as strong as Faker hasn't dominated half of the region like Chu Ran has, after all, Faker has also made many mistakes and errors on the field.

But Chu Ran didn't.

But then again...

Who told Rooike to be teammates with Chu Ran?

"It's alright, they can only dream about it in the end. In a few days, these people will shut up." Chu Ran raised an eyebrow, completely unconcerned about the online opinions, and casually gave a thumbs up to the female streamer dancing on a certain musical note.

"Oh dear, isn't Fujii going to do anything about it?"

TheShy couldn't take it anymore after seeing the chat messages in his live stream, and immediately ended the stream after finishing a ranked game.

It's really frustrating, and the housing authorities simply can't keep up with the blocking.

At this moment, TheShy suddenly felt that it was good that he couldn't understand Chinese, but there was nothing he could do. Ever since Chu Ran took over IG, he had been forced to learn Chinese.

Previously, TheShy could get away with it, but in front of Chu Ran, he couldn't get away with it at all and could only honestly learn Chinese.

Otherwise, he'll be relegated to the bench.

Other teams might indulge him because they don't have a stronger top laner, but IG won't.

If TheShy can't play this top lane position, there are plenty of other players who can. If all else fails, Chu Ran can even return to the top lane.

"Shy, what are you thinking?" Jaccyelove said sarcastically. "Even Fujii hopes that Ran won't win the championship."

"The scenario they most hope for is that Ran will first be in a slump for a few years, and then make a comeback, so that the lifespan of the region and the game can be better guaranteed."

TheShy scratched his head, admitting that Jackeylove had a point. The League of Legends officials could not tolerate such a strong player continuing to dominate the professional scene.

"They're just clowns. Relax and just keep training and broadcasting as usual."

At this point, Chu Ran immediately opened her Weibo account, quickly edited a post, and published it.

Weibo IG-Easy:

【Wait, you haters seem really anxious? What kind of champions are you?】

Chu Ran's Weibo post gave his previously suppressed fans a huge sense of relief, as if they had found their pillar of support.

[Exactly, look how anxious you haters are.]

[What kind of B-level champions are these? Are they all so arrogant? Have they all been playing like bath dogs for years without ever winning a championship?]

[Stop talking, or these haters will develop "YuYu syndrome" (a Japanese term for a person with a critical condition).]

Seeing this, the trolls became even more aggressive, and the upcoming final match became known to everyone online.

It's been trending on the homepage of the hot search list every day, making countless video bloggers incredibly wealthy—a true feast for both critics and pariahs.

This jubilation didn't last long, until the night before the competition began, when an eerie silence descended, like the eve of a storm.

By noon the following day, April 30, a massive crowd had already gathered near the competition venue, and all the major competition zones around the world had turned on their live broadcast rooms, all watching the match closely.

The commentators from each region were on high alert, and even Faker, who rarely streams matches, made an exception.

As the car slowly drove up, a loud cheer erupted from the crowd, with countless people holding up support signs and glow sticks and cheering.

"Ran-ge, this is a huge event today. If we lose, will we be able to leave this venue?"

"Wenbo, you should say if we win, can we leave this venue?" Chu Ran waved to the enthusiastic fans.

"Do you know how high the odds are for IG to win the championship on betting websites? Let me tell you, there are only two words to describe it: outrageous."

Upon hearing Chu Ran's words, Jakceylove's pupils constricted sharply. It was indeed true.

Losing today isn't so bad. If they had actually won, the LPL would probably hate IG to the core. And right now, deafening voices mocking IG are ringing out.

"Go home and drink your milk!"

"A chicken doesn't even dare to try and scam a phoenix!"

Amidst this heated discussion, the FPX team members arrived at the scene in a special car, instantly causing the atmosphere to boil over once again. Countless spectators began to shout their support for Doinb, Gao Tianliang, and others, their cheers even surpassing those of Chu Ran and IG fans.

It's hard not to suspect that FPX hired online trolls.

Doinb was very confident, raising his hands with a big smile to greet the audience, and then striding confidently towards the backstage area.

"He's such a show-off, Ran-ge," Jackeylove and Meiko said in unison, with Rooike nodding in agreement. "He is, but he won so many games in the Spring Split, he has every right to be."

"Don't worry, Rooike, we'll make him fly today." TheShy's words immediately made Rooike and the others laugh.

After they arrived at the backstage dressing room, Dnaey began to reiterate the day's tactical plan, and the audience members gradually took their seats.

The stadium, which can hold nearly 7 people, was already packed to capacity; as far as the eye could see, it was filled with heads.

The competition hasn't officially started yet, but the popularity of the live broadcast rooms for various events has already exceeded 2000 million and is still growing, with the barrage of comments scrolling non-stop.

The atmosphere was filled with the sounds of waving flags and shouting, constantly stimulating everyone's auditory nerves and making them feel excited.

A moment later, host Ren Dong took the stage, and his simple opening remarks completely ignited the atmosphere at the event and in the live broadcast room.

"Dear viewers both at the venue and in the live stream, let us see your enthusiasm!"

In an instant, cheers for IG and FPX exploded like thunder in the stadium, leaving the audience from other regions stunned.

They all knew that LPL was popular, but they didn't expect it to be this incredibly popular. Suddenly, many LCK viewers understood why some people wanted to join LPL as Korean imports.

With such a huge following, the salary must be substantial.

"Alright, let's welcome both teams now!"

The next second, Ren Dong started shouting out the IDs of each contestant, and the promotional video for today's finals appeared on the big screen at the same time.

Each person's face was clearly visible to the audience.

GimGoon: I admit TheShy is very strong, but I'm not weak either. I will let the LPL know who is the strongest top laner this year!

Gao Tianliang: I think anyone can beat IG; we can win by playing normally.

Lwx: I hope IG can last a little longer.

Crips: I think Meiko's Thresh skin from last year should have my name on it.

Doinb: When I was playing professionally, the opposing team hadn't even stepped onto the stage yet. I'll show them what it means to be a senior!
When the FPX team's promotional video ended, it instantly triggered a high-pitched roar from the audience, and the live chat was flooded with comments.

【Crazy!! My Songsong!】

FPX will win!

[Coin is awesome! When Coin was playing professionally, the rest of IG were still drinking milk. I don't know what he was so arrogant about!]

Amidst the heated discussion among the audience, the faces of IG Chu Ran and others appeared one by one. The first to appear was TheShy, who made a very cool shot, followed by his deep voice.

"Today, I'll show the enemy top laner what cruelty is. He'll win if he can take even one layer of my turret plating."

【Fuck! ! 】

【6666! TheShy——!】

【No, Horse Head, are you pretending to be a motherfucker?】

Rooike followed closely behind, and his remarks were much more humble compared to TheShy's.

"I really want the championship, so even if FPX is strong this time, I will beat them. No one can stop me from winning the championship, not even Doinb."

You can always trust Song Yijin!

[Song Yijin? One jin will be given away!]

Please, please let Rooike win a championship.

The screen flickered again, and Meiko and Jackeylove's handsome faces quietly appeared. The two stood with their arms crossed, backs to back, looking straight ahead with confidence in their eyes.

Jackeylove: I will make history again.

Meiko: I've met many champion supports, but they all call me champion.

[Haha, Tianye's starting to put on an act now, huh?]

I heard you say it.

A new history? A whole new mess! Birdfall Slope awaits you, graceful and elegant!

When Chu Ran appeared on the big screen as the final performer, she immediately brought an immense sense of pressure to many people.

He sat quietly in the chair, but to many people, the chair felt like a throne.

And Chu Ran is the emperor on the throne!
Amidst the intense attention of everyone, Chu Ran's calm yet confident words quietly resounded.

"I don't care about my opponent today. Since I started my professional career, countless people have tried to challenge me, but without exception, they have all failed."

"Today's FPX is just one of many failures, and I only want to congratulate Faker."

They've earned the right to challenge me again!

When Chu Ran finished speaking, countless viewers at the scene and in the live broadcast room were stunned, staring in disbelief at Chu Ran, who stood up and had a slender figure on the big screen.

A frantic chorus of gasps filled the air.

Amidst this atmosphere of shock, cheers and curses quickly erupted, creating a cacophony of noise!
[NMSL! But you bastard, Faker still needs to challenge you!]

[You bastard, what are you pretending for? Did you go to Thailand for surgery? You love to fake it!]

FPX is one of your failures, you bastard, I'm waiting for you to get crushed!

[Hahaha, you science buffs and your monkey offspring are getting anxious! I know you're anxious, but hold on a second. Let me ask you, have you ever beaten Chu Shen?]

[Hilarious, a total KO!]

[Why did you all fall silent when I asked if you'd ever beaten Chu Shen? Are you all mute?!]

The moment the promotional video ended, the scene and the live broadcast room completely exploded, instantly becoming a boiling ocean, and Chu Ran's words were also transmitted to various competition areas through the live broadcast room.

After the translation, the audience from other regions were also dumbfounded.

At this moment, an LPL Spring Split match is captivating the attention of viewers worldwide!
