Chapter 192: Five consecutive wins and the Intercontinental Championship is coming

After some adjustments, the second game began.

In order to allow Audi to fully realize his potential, the team did their best, giving him a counter position and helping to ban the natural enemy, and finally locked Fiora in the fifth floor position to face Kled.

After entering the game, Audi, who had just reached level 3, controlled Fiora to kill Lies Kled.

Abu's eyes lit up in the lounge.

"Yes, he still has some personal strength. The club has not trained him in vain."

The water dispenser manager, A Guang, smiled bitterly and said nothing.

At the same time, in the bottom lane, the EDG duo once again easily completed a solo kill.

Thresh and Nautilus are both strong initiating supports.

The damage of Kalista and Ashe is not low either, but there is still a certain gap between the two.

Between hard and support, sometimes it is not always the case that whoever takes the initiative will win, such as in this wave where Cat Titan took advantage of the gap in the minion line to hook Lin Ruo Kalista first.

What greeted him was not a close approach, but using the passive immobilization to successfully start a team fight, thus creating enough output space for the AD.

Instead, it was interrupted by Thresh halfway.

Then he landed steadily on the chains, hanging there weakly, completely becoming a lamb to be slaughtered.

Titan flashed back.

Lin Ruo Kalista followed the flash.

DAN's mistakes helped EDG easily establish a huge advantage in the situation.

"Then it's a sure thing." Seeing Lin Ruo get the kill, the factory manager looked confident.

However, just after ten minutes, Audi made the same old mistake again. He got too excited when he had an advantage and tried to kill Kled by crossing the tower. However, he was killed by Lies who was on horseback and used his extreme skills to recover his health.

Abu's happy face fell slightly and he said, "Unfortunately, the operation is not a big problem."

It is a good thing that young people dare to take action, and he did not choose to blame them too much.

However, in this wave, DAN took the initiative and took down the Rift Herald, wearing down most of the health of the middle tower.

Fortunately.

All I can say is that the advantages are still there.

It was not until the 21st minute of the game that Audi, who pushed the line too deep, was killed in front of the bottom lane high ground.

DAN, who had two teleports in the middle and top lane, quickly forced a team fight at the big dragon.

A 4v5 team battle.

Even if Lin Ruo's Kalista played perfectly and exchanged 2 for 2, it still couldn't prevent the dragon from falling.

DAN has since become the host.

Especially in the solo lane, the taking-off Kled completely restricted Fiora's lane pushing.

There was a back and forth between the two sides.

At the 41st minute, DAN relied on a single-core late-game lineup dominated by Clockwork to take down the Ancient Dragon, and finally pushed down the EDG base in one wave, freezing the time of the second game.

Lin Ruo, with a record of 13-2-6, was unable to turn the tide.

The entire DAN team, which won the game, couldn't believe it. They actually beat EDG in a game.

You should know that with Lin Ruo starting, EDG only lost three games in the entire spring season and MSI. The value of this game is self-evident.

In the lounge, Abu's face flushed red. "Take him away! Take him away quickly! Don't let me see him."

Nofe urgently arranged the tactical details for the third game with A Guang, and EDG prepared for the second substitution.

[No, is there anyone else that Lin Gou can't lead?]

[Audi, do you want to destroy EDG? ]

The two waves he died in were crucial: one at the Rift Herald and one at the Baron. Both were crucial moments.

[I don't understand. If I continued playing Prince in the top lane and joined the team head-on, I would have won a long time ago.]

[No need to estimate, with the prince blocking the enemy, Lin Gou can kill them in 20 minutes.]

EDG are so proud of winning the MSI title, aren't they? Don't you know that a bottom lane core is the key to winning the game? Is a 4-1 solo push really something your two EDG top laners can handle?

【If Mouse just comes up and plays with the meat, it will be over. 】

[It's a good thing for EDG to train new players. They only play tanks in the top lane. What if the world championship is a top-lane meta?]

[It's fine to practice in the regular season.]

You're right, but Audi is not good enough.

【If it were Mouse, he would never try to go to high ground without vision. 】

Mouse can play Rambo, Crocodile, and handle pressure. It's better to continue training him instead of Audi.

Before the third game even started, the forum full of players was already buzzing with activity.

I thought RNG would lose the game, but I didn't think EDG would also lose. This undoubtedly exceeded most people's expectations.

Fortunately, it was just a short game.

Hearing that Mouse was coming on the court, both the black and white sides calmed down. They played tanky in the top lane to resist the pressure, and tried their best to serve the bottom lane in the mid-term team battles. In their opinion, there was really no possibility of losing to DAN.

The results were as expected.

EDG did not give DAN many opportunities in the third match.

With the top lane in a stable and steady state, they quickly opened up a rhythm point in the bottom lane.

The familiar Shen support system took effect, and EDG won the third game without any danger, getting off to a good start in the LPL Summer Season.

On the way back.

Lin Ruo yawned as the car was bumpy. He was sleepy from today's game.

It's nothing, compared to the usual BO3, there is one more game. For Lin Ruo, who is used to BO2, it is normal to be unable to bear it.

Audi is very sober.

In the second game, Abu chased and killed me, and the Bible took at least half an hour to open.

Anyone would be confused.

It will probably be difficult to play in the regular season later, and I will need to make great progress.

…the second game of the first week of the regular season.

EDG faced the challenge of Snake.

Changes compared to the spring season.

After the German Cup, Snake started its familiar substitution and catching traitor mode.

After losing the first regular season game, the mid laner Ziti, who was in poor condition, was removed and replaced by the new mid laner Guoguo, and the bottom lane was also slightly adjusted.

The team introduced hudie, and the injured Gangzi couldn't even play the support position for a while. On the contrary, the Korean reinforcement Ohq sat firmly in the starting position.

There have always been rumors that Ohq and Zhu Kai have an irreconcilable secret relationship.

But only Zhu Kai himself knows.

It is simple for the team to continue using Ohq. First, there are no other good AD players. Second, no matter how weak he is, he is still better than Gangzi, whose hand injury has not yet recovered.

three…

I spent so much money on the transfer window, but I always feel like I'm losing out by just using the bench...

Makes sense.

So the club has continued to use it to this day.

Snake, who was still in the running-in period, naturally gave EDG a chance to recharge their batteries. After the match ended at 0:2, he quickly returned to the club to get dinner takeout.

Lin Ruo had to remind Lao Zhu that everyone was sitting close to each other, so he should not take the wrong thing.

Zhu Kai left thoughtfully.

Tonight, it might be a good idea for him to be a vengeful takeaway killer.

With Lin Ruo, EDG has a strong ability to adapt to the version, and after only two games, it has become a model for other teams to learn from.

And when the lineup is completely fixed.

Faced with the dense and compact schedule of the subsequent summer season, EDG made great strides and continued to maintain its due strength, without giving other teams any chance.

Throughout June, EDG has achieved an impressive record of five consecutive victories and has remained firmly in first place in Group A.

The only team that can compare with them is the dark force OMG in Group B, which is also undefeated.

As July approaches, most LPL fans are no longer paying attention to the league rankings, but the upcoming first Intercontinental Championship, commonly known as the Asian Challenge, which will be held in Kaohsiung, Taipei from July 7th to July 6th.

The contestants are the top four teams from the spring season of LPL, LCK and LMS respectively.

Netizens on Tieba who are working hard for LPL started researching it early on.

A study found that the situation was not good.

Looking at the four LPL teams, the worst performer is RNG at 3-2.

After the absence of Uzi, RNG rotated wuxx and Y4 in the bottom lane successively, but the effect was not very good, so that the performance was up and down, and currently ranked only third in the middle position of Group B.

WE is also stumbling forward. In the last three games, they have two wins and one loss, all of which were full games. They have never been able to find the invincible form they had in the middle and late stages of the spring season.

In comparison, only EDG and OMG, who are in their prime, are more reassuring.

However, OMG has not played against the teams in Group A yet, so it is difficult to judge whether they will be able to take advantage of RNG's poor form and dominate the game in an environment where all the heroes in Group B are showing weakness.

But at least in the eyes of most LPL viewers, supported by the impression of the old dark forces, they still have great expectations for the new generation of OMG's intercontinental competition journey.

[If you lose, you don't lose. If you win, you make a lot of money. There's nothing to discuss.]

Yes, it feels like there's only one superstar in the LPL right now, EDG. Honestly, their win rate against the major LCK teams is slim.

So, don't put too much pressure on the players.

[Making it to the finals is considered a success.]

As long as we don't lose to the provincial team, I won't criticize them no matter how the final goes.

[That's right. We can lose to anyone but not Taiwan.]

While netizens were outraged, many bloggers who often follow overseas news also analyzed the recent state of the LCK league.

In summary, LPL really has a chance.

Because in LCK, the pattern of strong teams in the spring and summer seasons has changed quite a lot.

A few months ago, the top four teams in the LCK Spring Split were SKT, KT, SSG and MVP.

But with the start of the summer season, the three-time champion SKT, which is in a slump, has fallen to fourth in the league and is close to falling out of the playoffs.

Peanut's continued poor performance even forced SKT to start rotation early.

In addition, the situation of the fourth MVP of the spring season is the most bizarre. He is currently ranked eighth in the league and has begun to struggle for relegation.

As for KT and SSG, who are in good form, there is no need to say much.

It is worth mentioning that the current LCK league leader is LZ, which just underwent a reorganization in the summer season and leads the standings with a perfect record.

It’s a pity that they don’t have the opportunity to participate in the intercontinental competition.

[The strongest team in LCK can't come, hahaha. ]

[It seems there's hope. At least I can win the MVP award for the relegation team.]

[That's right. As long as the lineup is correct and EDG wins another game, we can at least drag the finals to the fifth game.]

[Ah, you're already thinking about the finals? ]

Is it possible that SKT's poor form isn't something that other LPL teams besides EDG can challenge?

[FW is not weak, we might even have a back-and-forth battle with Taiwan.]

[Yeah, let's first consider the provincial team's progress to the finals. After all, they're at home, so they're definitely going to be stronger than usual.]

For me, as long as I can beat the provincial team, losing to the LCK is not unacceptable.

Overall, although EDG defeated SKT in the Mid-Season Invitational to win the championship, for most current LPL viewers, the journey to the Intercontinental Championship is still more pessimistic.

EDG’s strength does not mean that LPL as a whole is strong.

After all, the former has a monopoly in LPL and no one can shake it.

From the LCK perspective.

With these strong teams standing side by side, it is obvious that their overall strength is much higher than that of the LPL, which is still developing.
