Chapter 255 Interview: If we kill them all, there will be no one left to fight for the Baron
MSF was as fragile as paper and had no power to fight back under EDG's attack.

Especially after Lin Ruo defeated the larger force and got a pentakill, the situation became completely sluggish.

23 minutes.

EDG rallied together and quickly ended the game with an unstoppable push through the middle lane.

"Congratulations to EDG. The game was a foregone conclusion. The first World Championship victory belongs to our LPL!"

Remember the inspiring words.

The moment the base exploded froze, and all the cameras in the room suddenly focused on it.

The audience at the scene was extremely excited. There was no boring operation in this game. It was all non-stop attacks from beginning to end.

No time was wasted, and not a penny of the ticket price was unworthwhile. This is the LPL championship team that emphasizes offensive efficiency throughout the year.

"EDG!"

"EDG!"

Amidst the incessant shouting at the scene, Lin Ruo calmly took off his headphones and stood up.

This victory was nothing out of the ordinary for him. EDG's journey in the World Championship had just begun, and there were still many games to win.

After shaking hands with all the MSF members, Lin Ruo was stopped by the staff at the stage entrance before he even had time to leave the stage.

The competition time is tight, so the time required for the interview is naturally much tighter as well.

After a brief review at the commentary booth, Lin Ruo stood on the stage again.

Next to him is Ren Dong, the popular LPL host who will soon be known as the Undying Grasp.

The big screen showed all the statistics of Lin Ruo winning the MVP.

KDA:10-0-4
KR (group participation rate): 70%
OMG (damage share) %: 38%.

"Okay, good afternoon to everyone watching live and in the livestream. Before the next match begins, we'd like to invite Lin Ruo, the MVP of the first match, to say hello to everyone."

Lin Ruo took the microphone and smiled calmly: "Hello everyone, I am EDG's bottom laner Lin Ruo."

He originally wanted to come and introduce the installation in a resume-style manner. After all, he just won a new national championship half a month ago. But when he saw that the players from G2 and SSG behind him were already installing their peripherals, he felt that time was indeed a bit tight, so he decided to do it next time.

There were hysterical screams at the scene, but the audience's enthusiasm did not diminish at all.

Ren Dong nodded and quickly began to ask questions: "First of all, congratulations to EDG for defeating MSF. This is also Lin Ruo's first victory in his first World Championship appearance, so is there anything you want to say?"

What to say? Nothing to say.

Lin Ruo shrugged. "I feel like the World Championship is no different from any other competition. I won easily, so there's nothing much to say. As I said, I'm used to it."

There were bursts of cheers from the audience.

The people who had been waiting for a long time in the live broadcast room felt tired.

[Nothing new here. As soon as the question came out, I already predicted what Lin Ruo would say.]

【Jiang Lang's talent has run out.】

【Can Lin Gou come up with some new sentences? 】

[I think it's probably due to the problem. I don't know how many times this interview question has come up. Lin Gou can't play around with it.]

[That means you're not good enough at showing off. A true genius wouldn't have any trouble coming up with new and funny words when faced with the same old questions.]

Someone actually questioned Lin Gou. Damn! There's no one in the LPL who's better at talking dirty than him.

They were originally discussing the game, but when it came to the post-match interview, as soon as Lin Ruo opened his first sentence, the hot topic among netizens was biased.

Lin Ruo didn't know that the little black fans didn't question his operation level, but actually began to question the tastelessness of his dirty talk.

Ren Dong smiled as if he'd expected it. "So, my second question is, at 20 minutes into the game, EDG were all going for Baron. Lin Ruo, you were halfway through the drive when you decided to go out for a teamfight. At that point, it looked like MSF had been stopped, so it seemed like the best option was to just take the Baron. So why did you suddenly decide to abandon the Baron and go out for a fight?"

"Who said it's stable?" Lin Ruo asked a rhetorical question after hearing this.

Ren Dong paused. "Is it unstable? You guys are hitting very fast, and the other side hasn't even entered the river yet."

"But all five opponents are still alive, and one of them has a jungler with smite. If we use the dragon's ultimate to devour and combine it with smite, the chances of us stealing the dragon are very high if we dodge down from the back of the dragon pit."

Ren Dong was forced to nod. He didn't know why he was just asking a question and the interviewee didn't want to answer it, so he questioned the rationality of the question.

Although it makes sense.

"So Lin Ruo thought that the situation wasn't stable enough to kill Baron at that time, so he chose to leave."

"Yes, as long as I kill all the opponents, the big dragon will definitely be safe, so I chose to go out." Lin Ruo embellished it a little.

Ren Dong was stunned.

These words were extremely arrogant, but coming from Lin Ruo's mouth, they sounded very natural.

Because he actually did it.

After a brief silence, the scene erupted in warm cheers.

[Other teams kill all their opponents before going for the Baron, but Lin Gou only realizes he hasn't killed anyone yet, so he goes out to kill them slowly, right?]

[This isn't sexy enough, but it's wild, I like it.]

[Hehe, I, Lin Gou, never brag. If you tell me that, MSF won't have a chance to steal the dragon, right?]

[How to grab the dragon after killing them all...]

[The King of Flirting has become the King of Crazy Talk today, right? Next time, the Flirting and Crazy need to be combined, otherwise it's too monotonous.]

[Stop talking. C9 is already sweating profusely as they face EDG tomorrow.]

...

In the G2 player seat next to it.

Ah P, who was still installing peripherals, looked at it calmly and showed envy again:

"Although I don't know what he said, I could see the excitement in the audience's applause. I think he must have said something extremely confident and arrogant."

"Don't worry, once we defeat SSG this time, you can stand in the interview booth and say anything. I'm sure the Chinese audience, who are never stingy with their applause, will give you an even warmer round of applause."

Zven said very seriously.

After hearing this, Ah P couldn't help but clench his fists. He was determined and even Jesus couldn't stop him.

He is determined to be in the post-match interview, and even God can't stop him.

Half an hour later, Ah P successfully stood on the interview stand as he wished, but it was just a post-match group interview for the losing team.

G2, which did not have a big kill gap with SSG throughout the game, has been lagging behind in economy since the end of the lane swap period.

After 30 minutes, the economic gap reached a terrifying 7000 yuan.

At this time, the head-to-head ratio between the two sides was only 5:6.

AP lost very uncomfortably. The team didn't even have a proper team fight with SSG, and was just killed by a solo pusher Shen.

Seeing Master An standing on the main stage to be interviewed, Ah P felt even more aggrieved for no reason.

That's my place.

Just two group stage matches into the tournament, and the European region has already suffered two consecutive losses, prompting LEC viewers to take to Twitter to complain. [Guys, remember this: we've lost two games because we've only played two.]

[G2, our eternal European civil war phantom, the number one seed that gives away points every year.]

My God, why did they let a team like G2 become the champion of our LEC region? Is it to show how devastating our region is?

It's time to trust third seed FNC again.

FNC will be our only hope of advancing to the quarterfinals. As for G2, just don't lose to the wildcard team, FB.

Although MSF played much worse than G2, this doesn't affect what I'm going to say next: G2, fuck you.

When you can trust G2, I don’t know how bad your life will be.

...

The game is still going on. Next up is LPL's second seed RNG facing the wildcard team FB. There were some twists and turns in the early stages, but they played steadily in the middle stages.

As expected, RNG won the first victory. Since then, LPL has won all the games on the first day.

Time flies and the next day comes.

On the second day of the group stage, in addition to EDG's match against C9, there are two other heavyweight matches, namely RNG vs. SSG, and WE's first appearance to challenge the three-time champion SKT who easily defeated TSM yesterday.

In the first game, RNG showed an excellent fighting level. The whole game was played quickly and SSG, which was famous for its operations, could not raise its head. This achieved the biggest upset since the start of the group stage.

"11:0, I can do it too!" Miller, who was in charge of the commentary, blurted out the famous quote.

RNG fans, who had been feeling frustrated for a while since the summer season finals, came out of their shells and expressed their gratitude for the victory.

[RNG is awesome, all-Chinese squad go for it! ]

[Puppy, you are the best, the best cannon in the world, just jump forward. ]

[You're the one who called me SSG. Stop talking nonsense and call Longzhu over. I told you to call Longzhu over.]

[LPL doesn't just have EDG, our RNG is no weaker either!]

In the RNG base, Kwon Jong-hyuk, in a good mood, finally unblocked himself and posted a Weibo for the first time after a whole year of online accusations.

"You who are not expected to be the strongest are you."

This statement naturally implies that the current situation in LPL where public opinion and audience focus are all on EDG, to the extent that the other two teams are almost completely ignored.

In the eyes of most LPL viewers, EDG is the only team that can defeat LCK.

But they RNG did it today.

It can be said that the team has slapped the faces of most LPL viewers' expectations with its strength.

In Quan Zhonghe's view, this is justice defeating darkness, and their RNG will definitely use this game as a sign of taking off and completely take back everything they lost from EDG.

Including prestige, public opinion, commercial value, and the title of the strongest team in LPL.

He wants to take back everything RNG has lost with his own hands.

At this moment, there was wailing in the Korean live broadcast room.

"Xibba, how is this possible? Our LCK's third seed was completely defeated by RNG from the LPL. This was a game where there was no chance of winning at all."

"Yeah, getting shut out is such a shame. SSG really needs to come back and adjust."

The Roaring Emperor and the other two commentators collapsed to the extreme, and their defeat was so ugly that it was beyond description.

[These SSG brats are really acting like nonsensical people today. Did they each drink ten cups of coffee last night and not get enough sleep?]

[Master Xibaan asked you to lead the team, not to send them off. Look at what you are doing, playing pig girl and being slaughtered like a pig.]

If you can't get first place in the group, just swim back. Stop making excuses. I'll admit I lost to EDG, but losing to RNG is nothing.

How could KT, who easily beat RNG, lose to such a team in the bubble match? It's unbelievable.

I feel like it's going to be really hard to win this year, and SKT isn't in top form either. I can only pin my hopes on LZ.

SKT can't lose, otherwise our LCK region will be completely defeated today. If that happens, the LPL brats will be so excited. It's disgusting just thinking about it.

[Yeah, come on SKT.]

The Korean online forum was in an uproar, and while discussions were still ongoing, the second match between SKT and WE had already begun.

Perhaps it was because they witnessed SSG's embarrassment with their own eyes, or perhaps it was because of the humiliating match in the Intercontinental Championship. Facing WE again, SKT put in all their effort this time and made very few mistakes throughout the game.

After nearly 40 minutes of fierce battle, WE was ultimately unable to withstand SKT's extremely precise attack and operations, and was unfortunately defeated.

On the second day of the group stage, LPL and LCK each gained something, but also suffered some losses.

Compared to the LCK fans who were completely unacceptable, the LPL audiences were very satisfied with the 1:1 result. Since EDG was in the non-Korean group, winning a game against a Korean team in the group stage was an absolute win.

The ongoing group stage quickly reached the closing match at 8pm.

EDG vs C9.

Scout's mid-lane Lucian is so smooth that it's like he's eaten Dove.

Lin Ruomeimei achieved a win without any effort.

EDG, which was highly expected by LPL audiences, still played with absolute dominance and easily won the second victory in just 25 minutes.

On Weibo, the public opinion about RNG's victory over SSG has not yet faded, and several new hot searches have been added.

#Factory Director squatting outside the grass#
#简皇4397#
Under the suppression of Lucian, the innocent Jensen only scored 4397 points in the whole game. Although it is not the lowest in the team, this data is so magical in LPL.

Since then, Jensen, who has been hailed as the "Emperor Jian" by LPL audiences, has a new nickname.

Guangchang!

Everyone, human or ghost, is showing off, only North America is getting beaten. Today, the LCS team with three teams all suffered a shameful three-game losing streak.

As the number one seed, TSM took the lead and suffered two consecutive losses, ranking last. In order to ease the despair of European fans yesterday, the North American side obviously made huge sacrifices.

The mood of LEC fans suddenly improved.

It is certainly sad that their own region does not perform well, but the terrible results of the North American region can make them regain the joy of comparison.

Especially, FNC and G2, who played today, both won their first victory.

"Oh my god, how could he rush so high? Is someone trying to scam me? I just accidentally walked out of the bushes and lost sight." The factory manager who was packing up peripherals in the lounge was very confused.

Lin Ruo understood very well.

Imagine that they had been hiding in the bushes for more than a minute, and the C1 jungler and support were fooled and walked over, but the factory manager and the prince inexplicably took a step out of the bushes, and all the hard work of hiding was wasted.

Fortunately, the game was won without any danger.

Otherwise, the factory manager will not only be greeted with simple ridicule from the people who are just there for fun, but will also be subjected to large-scale online outbursts.

"Kai, you better be more careful next time. It's a waste of my time squatting with you."

Tian Ye complained a little.

That wave was really weird. They stood outside the bushes for no apparent reason, leaving him completely bewildered.

What's going on? Is it uncomfortable standing in the triangular grass? Or are there mosquitoes biting me?
