LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 206 You said you would keep a low profile, but what kind of expression did you show when you went to the SSG player's seat?

The team under the most pressure right now must be the SSG players on the stage.

EDG is on a roll with the Baron troops.

Crown controlled Clockwork to clear out the hordes of soldiers rushing up at the ruins of the middle lane tower, and watched as the EDG players who had returned to the city for replenishment rushed to the line.

The crown turned and walked away.

When I looked back, I didn't expect that the female police officer was chasing me closely.

The E skill used a reverse-ejection caliber net to close the distance, and Lin Ruo shot firmly at Clockwork's head.

The goal is far away.

Then he stopped and sniped, using his ultimate move to take the life.

The ultra-long-range bullet was about to fly over his head, and Crown immediately used the W skill to accelerate the retreat.

But at this moment, rows of rockets fell, and Clockwork's movement speed slowed down again.

Rambo unleashed his ultimate.

Crown was getting increasingly anxious as his health was decreasing, but the policewoman and Rambo were far away from each other, and it was impossible for him to catch up with him.

Even so, the crown couldn't relax at all.

next moment.

EDG's final deadly offensive is coming.

Loaded with a bomb pack, Kuchi swooped down from the F6 entrance, through the wall, and dived into the field. A fiery red path of destruction and death filled the middle lane.

Clockwork, who had just reached the edge of the second tower, was suddenly attacked by a powerful missile.

The E skill uses machine guns to sweep, phosphorescent bullets and two rounds of missiles, and Scout takes down the target and looks back confidently.

EDG's perfect cooperation completely defeated Crown, who had no flash.

The SSG people who arrived were stunned.

They fled in all directions and retreated to the high ground.

"What's going on, Xiba, EDG! EDG!"

The Roaring Emperor stared at the screen with gritted teeth but could do nothing.

The clockwork is gone.

The middle lane high ground is about to be lost.

Kaohsiung Exhibition Center, Taiwan.

The audience at the scene were all stunned. They could not imagine that in less than 25 minutes, SSG was beaten so badly by EDG and was on the verge of losing the game.

The LMS official live broadcast room was flooded with comments.

【EDG＞LCK＞LPL＞LMS. 】

【What is SSG doing? They are powerless to fight back.】

[Isn't the LCK supposed to be invincible? How come they were beaten like this right after the finals?]

I almost thought I was half asleep, but then I saw the opposing team logo was EDG, so I knew it was okay.

[SKT is no good, SSG is no good either, why don’t you go and help KT rise up.]

[Don't push it anymore. If you do, and then lose, LCK will lose all its face.]

[The default MVP doesn't need to be promoted, right? 】

【If you don't know, you might think it was FW, but they were beaten like this by EDG. 】

[Don't be so mean, FW was defeated in 13 minutes in the semi-finals. SSG can at least hold their own against two FWs.]

If LPL really wins the championship, the sky will fall.

[Don't worry, we still have to wait and see how the next few LPL teams perform.]

The LMS audience almost unanimously confirmed that SSG was about to lose the game, and many people who were just there for fun had even started mocking and making trouble.

Supporting SSG won more, but that doesn’t mean all LMS viewers support SSG.

Even at this moment, there was a lot of applause at the scene.

The fight was so good, it was impossible not to be convinced.

"Still turning?"

In the LCK coach's lounge.

The KT coach looked at the SSG head coach with a mocking silence.

You let your team's starting lineup play to boost morale, but it ended up turning out like this, right?

Edgar's face flushed crimson, and he didn't know if he was trying to save face or just be tough. "Is it possible that EDG is just too strong?"

Wang Leehom immediately expressed his agreement.

"We obviously can't leave any chances to chance against EDG."

"That's because they haven't faced us, KT. We won't pick a late-game comp that gives them lane control."

The KT coach expressed complete disdain and went out to make arrangements for the second game.

Edgar and Leehom Wang looked at each other in silence.

On the playing field.

After 3 minutes of Baron time, EDG successfully took down the middle and lower high ground of SSG.

In the blink of an eye, they had gathered outside the high ground of the upper lane, and with the help of the soldiers from the other two lanes, they frantically destroyed the only remaining upper tower.

The tower is covered with densely packed clamps.

The SSG players didn't even have the chance to defend the tower.

On the other side, the pressure from the troops in the middle lane brought by Kuchi was too great and was approaching the front tower.

"Xiba, go ahead and open it."

Master An, who had cleared the line of soldiers in front of the front tower, roared in the voice chat.

Now he can no longer remain calm.

You must force your attack when the next wave of super soldiers arrives slowly from the front, otherwise you will be like a frog in boiling water waiting to die.

Corejj behind the tower gritted his teeth and remained determined.

He suddenly accelerated forward and flashed to launch a mechanical flying claw.

Lin Ruo outside the tower did not move at all, and the warm white mercury opened to offset the attack head-on.

The fields beside me are lit with lanterns.

Lin Ruo moved accordingly and dodged the magic crystal arrow that was coming towards him.

SSG's desperate attack was wasted as most of their troops were destroyed before the battle even started.

Brother Crown doesn’t even know how to play when the policewoman has flash.

But soon he won't have to play anymore.

As SSG failed to initiate a team fight, EDG took the initiative to take on the task of forcing the fight.

Rockets fell in groups, regardless of their targets.

The factory manager's excavator on the high ground in the middle lane was the first to enter the field and randomly hit it, disrupting the positions of the SSG players.

There were flames everywhere under their feet, so SSG didn't dare to start a fight here. They retreated one by one to see who could retreat the fastest.

Scout dive-bombed like it was no man's land.

Cuvee was confused and didn't know which one to open.

The damage of EDG's front and back Cs seems to be quite high.

There was no time to take action.

The straight hook made him stagger.

Step on the clamp and get headshot.

Cuvee, who was forced to determine the target of attack, suddenly jumped up, and the sky collapsed and the earth cracked in the middle of the road. Before it fell, the prince of Demacia died heroically.

EDG brutally defeated SSG on the high ground, destroying them along with their tower.

"It's over. EDG defeated SSG, representing LPL's first victory in the Intercontinental Finals."

Miller rejoiced.

Wawa almost jumped up and down, "This is EDG, they are so fierce, the LPL is about to set sail."

pdd: "Congratulations to EDG, EDG is awesome!"

The cheers in Shanghai Central Plaza were endless and continuous like a tide.

【6666, EDG, my god! 】

[Lin Gou is on, right? He didn't die once against SKT, but he's still like this against SSG.]

Lift KT up. I want you to lift KT up.

[Korean commentators are all saying SKT is too weak. If SSG really gets beaten, you'll be unhappy again.]

【Hahaha. 】

[After watching LPL for so many years, this is the first time I’ve seen a Korean team beaten like this. Awesome!]

The moment the game ends.

In the SSG player seat.

The stunned Anzhang's mentality was quietly broken. He glared at the two Cs in the middle and bottom positions: "Why are the female police officer and the airplane on the opposite side doing ridiculously high damage, while you two don't do any damage at all?"

The bullied No. 1 Ruler had tears in his eyes and dared not speak.

Master An got angry when he saw him.

"You're the one who caused us to lose the S6 finals, and now you're screwing me again."

Brother Crown is usually silent and never says a word.

But if you mention the S6 World Championship, he has something to say.

I am the most fucking C one, and I almost led the team to come back from 2-0 down to win 3-0.

I didn't even curse Chidi after losing the game, so why are you, An Bixin, barking like a dog here?

Brother Crown felt very comfortable after venting his inner feelings.

Facing the ferocious gaze from Sect Leader An, he, who was the second most bullied member of the team, lowered his head silently.

You are old, you are amazing.

Cuvee, who stayed out of the matter, felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, he gets along well with Master An.

Naturally, the camera did not dare to focus on the SSG players who had become enemies. At this moment, the focus was on the other side.

Lin Ruo, who had experienced many ups and downs, took off his headphones without changing his expression. Then he heard A Guang's cheers from the side:

"Awesome, we defeated SSG."

"It's just a win against the South Korean team. What's there to shout about? Can you please keep a low profile?"

"Brother Lin is right."

Tian Ye listened and nodded repeatedly. Although he said this, he was actually smiling wider than anyone else.

After Lin Ruo put down his headphones, he looked at his teammates' reactions and felt helpless.

I'm so happy just playing SSG.

Winning today would be amazing.

We have all won the MSI and defeated the three-time champion SKT. We must learn to control our emotions, understand?

After fixing his hair, Lin Ruo walked towards the SSG player seat first and shook hands with top laner Cuvee.

"Hey, kid, why do you always like to step on my clamps? Be more careful next time. Even though it's free, you can't step on it casually."

The atmosphere became more tense. Cuvee first marveled at how good this guy's Korean was.

Then a meal.

Siba!!
He was ridiculed.

Cuvee was so angry that her face turned red. Her originally round face now looked just like the idol in Lin Ruo's mind.

Coming to the side of Master An, Lin Ruo smiled gently.

"Master An, why do you look so angry? It seems you really want to win the game. As soon as the game ended, you were already immersed in reviewing the game with your teammates."

Sect Leader An thought Lin Ruo was praising his professionalism, so he didn't think much about it.

After all, bullying is a tradition in Korea. It is the culture within the SSG team and he doesn't think there is any problem with it.

"Crown, it's better to play with grasshoppers." Lin Ruo casually patted the poor Crown.

A Guang, who was following behind, became more and more confused.

Is this what you call low-key?

Does that mean you shouldn't celebrate and just go to the next player's seat?

In A Guang's opinion, he was indeed too low-key.

"Ruler, please don't learn bad things. You must have a strong heart." Lin Ruo said earnestly, thinking about the younger generations who will join SSG in the future.

Ruler was confused.

Is he implying that we shouldn't learn from Master An?
But isn’t it normal for seniors to educate juniors?
Ruler has decided to teach his juniors a lesson in the future.

[Xiba, why do I feel like Lin Ruo and SSG are chatting very well? He was so hesitant to shake hands.]

【Maybe it's a comfort.】

[Stop talking nonsense, SSG, swim back quickly.]

[Should we throw all these rubbish into the sea to feed the sharks and then swim back?]

[All of them should be expelled from their nationality. This is so disgusting. We in the LCK actually let the LPL step on our heads like this.]

Under the endless anger of Korean netizens.

Everyone in EDG returned to the backstage lounge.

The second RNG vs KT match will begin later.

"If RNG can beat KT, I feel like we're a lock to win the championship."

Condi fantasized.

This game was undoubtedly the most difficult one, much more difficult than their subsequent games against SKT and MVP.

"Don't worry, we will definitely win the fourth game against MVP. You just need to win one of the second and third games." Icon was full of confidence.

Lin Ruo lay on the sofa with his head resting on his hands.

Listen to everyone discussing one thing after another.

He suddenly felt something was wrong. Was Icon a little too arrogant?

I heard that he was so happy playing MVP.

"MVP is not weak either, we still have to take it seriously." Lin Ruo said with a vigilant look.

"Don't worry, I won't let you guys go up and play the fifth round, Brother Lin."

Icon giggled. He now admired EDG very much, especially Lin Ruo.

They almost beat LCK completely.

smlz glanced at Lin Ruo and said calmly: "Well, we won't let up."

Smlz, who had never entered the World Championship, welcomed a promising international championship.

He was eager to win it to enrich his life and leave no regrets.

This is an obsession and also a yearning.

Not long after.

The second game of the Intercontinental Championship finals begins.

KT's tactics changed slightly.

They gave up their position in the bottom lane and instead used a strong combination of Crocodile, Spider and Rock Bird in the top, mid and jungle to target BP.

In the bottom lane, Jhin and Blitzcrank are used to resist pressure.

RNG here.

Since Corki was strengthened, he is almost a must-ban.

Mxlg confidently showed off his Lee Sin and paired him with Kled to deal with KT's killing, tower-diving, top and jungle combination.

The bottom lane Kog'Maw paired with Lulu is a classic line control strategy to ensure development and become a big C in the late game.

"KT used Robot to break through your bottom lane. RNG had to delay and at least ensure that Kog'Maw could develop safely until after 15 minutes."

"That's right, mlxg knows how to do it. He never leaves the bottom lane, from top to bottom. The early battle point between the two sides is during this period."

Char Siu looked at the lineup.

He thinks RNG is generally fine.

But the most stubborn point is that he was too determined in his choice of Kuchi.

In fact, it might be better to give Xiaohu something that can do something, such as Syndra.

Because KT can do so much.

Mata is best at roaming, and as a former teammate, everyone in RNG cannot be unaware of this.

RNG believes that it can withstand the pressure and give the mid laner the right development opportunities so that they can stand out and take charge of the situation in the mid-term.

KT also believed that they could launch a fierce offensive and deal a fatal blow to RNG.

as predicted.

The blow came at only level three.

Mata's flash was useless, so he hooked Lulu on the line and cooperated with Spider to get the kill.

Then he roamed around the middle lane and forced Xiaohu to flash.

RNG was under a lot of pressure for a while.

Especially when Pwan Taliyah returned to the city at level 5 and walked down, he unexpectedly ambushed and killed the big mouth in the lane.

After this wave, RNG's situation suddenly experienced an incredible collapse.

During both waves of opportunities, mlxg was clearly in the bottom lane, but failed to fulfill the important task of protecting the team.

But as a reckless jungler, mxlg's strongest point is that even if he is at a disadvantage, he will not give up the opportunity to invade the jungle.

At 8 minutes, he took Lulu to catch the robot that was providing vision in the blue team's jungle, and even cleverly sent the kill to the late-coming Big Mouth, helping RNG to recover some of the disadvantage.

But KT quickly responded.

Xiao Ming and Lulu were also punished by KT's jungler and support in the jungle due to vision issues.

Xiaohu failed to catch up and was ambushed by Rock Bird who used his ultimate. RNG lost two players and lost the middle tower in just over 10 minutes.

Without the protection of the middle and lower towers, Kog'Maw's situation was precarious.

KT gradually encroached on the jungle and took down the upper tower.

Relying on the Mata robot's lottery, he killed the blind monk again and took down the big dragon.

Just after 30 minutes, KT pushed down the RNG base with a score of 18:4, winning back a city for LCK.

Nice, KT performed really well in this game.

[Siba, there is no harm without comparison, Croejj comes in to learn robotics.]

If this KT team faced EDG, they would have probably won the first game. I really don't know how the coaching staff arranged the order of play.

[Even if we win the next game, we still have to hope for an upset win from MVP. I feel like this situation could easily drag on into a tiebreak.]

"That's perfect! Let KT take action to punish EDG. It will just restore the dignity of the LCK."

[Yes, don't let EDG think that we in LCK are really afraid of him.]

...

Backstage entrance.

The WE team greeted the five dejected RNG players.

"We are not doing well. Come on, you guys."

"It's okay, we will definitely win the third game."

All WE members are ready to go.

SKT has also embarked on the road to regaining confidence.

WE, who got the right to choose the side, actively chose the blue side and fought against SKT for the first time.

The offensive Kog'Maw paired with the defensive Galio, the do-whatever combination is back, and WE obviously attaches more importance to the coordination of the lineup.

On the SKT side, Faker used Snake Lady and Huni took out Weapon, forming a multi-point blooming lineup.

Everything is developing towards the confidence level that the players want. Wang Leehom hopes to use this competition to help the team regain the confidence they deserve.

...

In the backstage lounge, Lin Ruo and a group of contestants watched the BP with different expressions on their faces.

"This lineup also requires Kog'Maw to not collapse in the early game, otherwise the team will have no output, let alone the late game."

The factory manager looked very worried.

"WE is different from us. They have their own style of play." mlxg pulled his greasy hair.

The team had faced this lineup before in a training match with WE. He naturally knew the differences and believed that WE would not end up with the same result as their RNG.

Lin Ruo nodded and couldn't help but smile.

"We'll be fine."

LCK lounge.

Not long after the game started, Wang Leehom's brows were furrowed to the point where they couldn't be any furrowed any further.

Before going on stage, he repeatedly emphasized to his teammates the importance of confidence.

But now it seems that the team was fed too much chicken soup, which led to it being a little overconfident when facing WE, an emerging LPL team other than EDG.

Faker rushed to F6 at the beginning and gave away the first blood.

Huni's two-level confident attack was beaten back by the Prince. The situation seemed to be developing in an uncontrollable opposite direction.

At 7 minutes, Faker was arrested again by the excavator because he pushed the line too deep.

The situation became completely tense.

"What are you doing, Xiba?" KT coach was stunned.

If you keep playing like this, don't you even want to play the extra game?

Do we expect MVP to win the second game?

Play with fur.

Huni, who performed poorly in the laning phase, was even killed in a 12v2 tower attack by the WE duo who switched lanes at 1 minutes.

"Huni's laning phase in this game was terrible. It felt like he was just a bit of a mystery."

In the LMS commentary booth.

Char Siu couldn't understand what it meant to be sent home two levels down.

"Could it be... No way, WE is also going to kill the god?" Ball Z smiled meaningfully.

"Don't you want to see the final game of a best-of-five? Then you should be hoping for SKT to win. Otherwise, expecting MVP to win next time seems unrealistic."

Ball Z agreed, his smile fading. He then said realistically, "But the only thing WE needs to protect is Kog'Maw, and right now, it looks like Kog'Maw is about to get fat enough to go out of his timeline."
