LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 231: Prince Ning, what's the secondary system for the excavator?

15: p.m.

All the RNG members who had just arrived outside Zhengda Plaza and were about to get off the bus were confused.

A good BO5 is almost over after only an hour and a half? What the hell?

Firefox thought that they had led the team to arrive early enough, but it turned out that they were still a step late, because the game was likely to end less than half an hour after they entered the locker room.

IG, which was badly beaten in the first game, faced no better situation in the second game.

Lin Ruo, who completed the line kill in the early stage, played superbly with his Tristana. He jumped four times in a team battle and beat the IG players so hard that they were dizzy and doubted their lives.

In 25 minutes, IG's base was pushed down.

Watching the game, Letme, who was carrying a backpack, was already a little terrified: "It's horrible. I'm afraid we will get beaten like this if we make it to the finals."

Uzi, who was standing by, became unhappy instantly when he heard this.

Just as he was about to speak with his fists clenched tightly, mlxg spoke first: "No, what do you mean?"

Yes, what do you mean? How can you boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige?

Since someone spoke up for him, Uzi just kept the words to himself.

There are still competitions to come, so we can't criticize too much and cause internal strife.

"I...I didn't mean anything." Letme knew that he had said the wrong thing and lowered his head obediently.

mxlg complained, "What do you mean by getting beaten by EDG in the finals? You're dreaming! Even playing against WE is still a question. Have you forgotten about the shutout in the Spring Split?"

"what?"

Letme scratched his head unconsciously.

"Yeah, we still have to play WE, and we might not even make it to the finals."

Uzi on the side was stunned.

The next second, he roared like a volcano erupting: "You two!"

Next, mxlg and Letme began to be lectured.

Xiaohu, who had walked ahead not far away, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he could sense the temperature in advance and ran fast, unlike the other two who were still standing there as if nothing had happened.

At this time, in the IG lounge on the other side.

King Ning sat on the sofa, covering his face with his hands, and kept shaking his head.

Rookie, who has experienced many ups and downs, is also mentally exhausted at this moment.

After this BO5, the team has absolutely no hope of advancing. How are they going to play in the next game? Will they continue to get beaten?

Tired.

Whoever wants to be the dean can be the dean.

JK patted Rookie's back to comfort him. He looked determined and vowed to save IG from the dire situation in three months.

"Really, if you guys keep playing this badly in the bottom lane, I'll just have to play Kayn as the jungler next time."

The angry Prince Ning raised his head and gave a cold look.

He didn't lose, he just lost to his teammates.

So King Ning was angrier than anyone else, even though there was clearly no problem with his performance in this game.

West said nothing, just nodded.

You can be C, you can play anything, but he can't be C anyway.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely solemn.

Mafa had to step up and reassure everyone, saying, "Isn't it normal that we couldn't beat EDG? Don't get too discouraged. Just do your best next time. At least compared to being eliminated in the first round of the Spring Split, we not only made it to the semifinals of the Summer Split but also qualified for the qualifiers. That's a success, isn't it?"

EDG is a top-tier team in LPL. Their IG defeated WE in the regular season and beat OMG in the playoffs.

In Mafa's opinion, as long as they don't meet EDG in the next games, they can win against anyone.

"Just play your best in the last game. Don't dwell on whether you win or lose. Our journey isn't over yet. Even if we lose the semifinals, we still have to compete with two other teams in the qualifiers for a spot in the World Championship. Finding the problems and correcting them is the key."

Mafa's words of comfort immediately calmed King Ning down.

Yes, I just entered the LPL and I’m already playing so well. Isn’t the result of reaching the semi-finals in the summer season dazzling?
Since joining the LPL, except for being beaten by EDG, the odds against other teams are 50-50.

Even if they can't make it to the finals with such performance, it would be easy to enter the World Championship.

King Ning has rekindled his fighting spirit. It is not shameful to lose to EDG, and it is even less shameful to lose to Lin Ruo.

In his heart, Lin Ruo is the No. 1 AD in LPL.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t win in the bottom lane, as long as you perform steadily against other teams.

So when they returned to the player seat, except for the bottom lane duo, everyone else on IG was in a good mood.

In the custom room, Lin Ruo silently put a question mark in the chat box, then typed: "King Ning, what's the secondary system for the excavator?"

"Fuck you, this is so inexplicable."

King Ning cursed and turned his head and said, "Press the excavator later."

BP starts.

Theshy just pressed the excavator down.

EDG on the blue side methodically took down Luo, Galio and Tristana.

Big tree.

EDG's first floor was quickly finalized.

In the commentary booth, Rita said thoughtfully, "This Treant was taken a little too early. This will easily give Theshy too many options."

She felt that this hand was not good.

This only leads to another reason: the tree is there to sway. EDG is clearly trying to confuse the viewer.

IG also took this into consideration and chose to pick up Thresh and LeBlanc as the mid and support on the first and second floors.

"Ah Ji is a bit aggressive when she shows up." Guan Zeyuan was thinking about it when he saw EDG locking down the mid and bottom combination of Kalista and Taliyah on the second and third floors.

This is really a tit-for-tat situation, and no one is giving in.

Facing the third option, Mafa from the IG player's seat pondered, "Let's take down the big worm first, see how EDG changes their formation, and then counter from the counter position."

Cho'Gate is a strong character in this version, so even if Theshy chooses him, it won't be too difficult even if he sacrifices some laning phase.

And if EDG really dares to move Maokai to the jungle position.

Then the effect of their sanctions on Counter will undoubtedly be more immediate.

After the second round of bans.

IG prioritizes locking down Varus on the fourth floor to ensure the necessary laning strength in the early and mid-game.

EDG followed closely and locked down Kennen and Crocodile.

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan was suddenly confused: "Is this... Crocodile going top, Maokai as jungle, and Kennen as support?"

The lineup is too weird, and Guan Zeyuan doesn’t quite understand it.

With the major version changes, herbivorous junglers such as Sejuani have regained their youth, but it is still too radical to suddenly use Maokai to do jungle work.

Guan Zeyuan became more certain of this when he saw IG lock on the new hero Kayn on the fifth floor without hesitation.

There is no need to say how aggressive Kayn is.

What's more, EDG is still a big tree.

However, EDG's decision to use Kennen as a support player helped them avoid one thing: the early-game suppression in the bottom lane would be surprisingly fierce. With control of the lane, Kayn's aggressive ability naturally had to be taken into consideration.

Mafa didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy at this moment.

The advantage of the jungle position completely highlights the disadvantage of the bottom lane. What if the game explodes again at the beginning?

He had no choice; everything depended on the players to deal with it and make positive adjustments on their own.

However, the strength of the mid and jungle should be able to bring enough help to the bottom lane.

Fights are inevitable in the early stages, but this team of mostly newcomers is not afraid of melee.

"EDG on the blue side, top laner Crocodile, jungler Maokai, mid laner Taliyah, bottom lane duo Kalista and Kennen."

"Red side IG, top laner Cho'Gun, jungler Kayn, mid laner LeBlanc, bottom lane duo Varus and Thresh."

After the two coaches shook hands, Rita paused for a moment before speaking, "Both teams are ready now. Let's move on to the match point. Will EDG advance to the finals with great fanfare, or will IG fight back and pull off a comeback? Let's wait and see."

The words fell.

Ten people from both sides quickly entered the game.

At 1 minute and 40 seconds, wild monsters appeared.

"Zizhizhang made a huge sacrifice. To ensure the duo maintained absolute dominance, he actually chose to open the red team alone. Even though he had Shu Zizi with him, it was definitely not as comfortable as helping him open the red team."

Guan Zeyuan analyzed it and glanced at the minimap. Kayn chose to open F6 alone, most likely to clear the red buff and go down, which was completely opposite to the direction of Maokai clearing the jungle.

EDG's two long arms in the bottom lane blocked the IG duo in front of the tower and blocked the line before they even reached level 2. The red team was in trouble as usual.

"If you put it this way, is it possible that Ning will come back at level three?"

Guan Zeyuan said meaningfully.

Rita thought for a moment and continued, "EDG's bottom lane push is very deep, playing even more aggressively than in the first game. There's definitely a chance, but there's also a chance they'll fall into the same trap again, because the damage of Kalista and Kennen is really not to be underestimated."

Risk and return are directly proportional, so there is no problem in choosing either path.

But after losing the first game, King Ning obviously had no intention of ganking again.

Next, just fight the three wolves honestly and implement a full-scale development strategy.

However, EDG started to make a move.

"Director, please hurry up and attack! It seems like they are going to take the initiative."

Guan Zeyuan, who was paying close attention to the situation, said expectantly.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the factory director manipulated the big tree into the river, blocked the view and walked quietly to the red side's triangular grass, ready to go around and touch the back.

Theshy was completely unaware and was still fighting with Crocodile in the slightly suppressed lane.

A Guang took two steps forward, keeping a synchronized distance with the big bug. The moment the big tree came online, he used A followed by W and suddenly bit the red warm one to stun it.

The factory manager threw his son out, then tied him up and controlled him, pushing him into his own field of vision.

Combined skills.

Theshy walked peacefully, and A Guang easily rotated and took the first blood.

The top lane was in chaos from the start, and King Ning in the jungle couldn't help but feel the pressure doubled at this moment.

At this moment, he no longer had the mind to kill the toad. He quietly switched the screen and turned his vision to the bottom lane.

Kayn's special feature is his ability to pass through walls, which makes it very convenient for him to catch people. If you really want to use it, your chances are very high.

"Kennen just went into the river and came back quite late. He's probably been warding at the entrance of our jungle."

Baolan reported on EDG's developments.

This made King Ning determined, and after leveling up to level 4 by killing the toad, he quickly walked to the triangle grass.

The vision at the jungle entrance is useless to him and cannot stop the gank through the wall at all, but if he can paralyze the vision of the EDG duo, it will undoubtedly be a great benefit.

After a quick observation, King Ning found that the explosive fruit had been knocked away, which meant that Kennen's vision was deeper than the jungle entrance. He immediately walked carefully along the wall, waiting for the opportunity to gank.

He cannot take the initiative, so the responsibility of taking the initiative can only be handed over to Thresh.
