My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 158 My parameters aren't bad either!

a few days later.

With V5's fourth opponent, RNG, approaching, the tournament server has been officially updated to version 12.11.

In other words, as mentioned earlier, before level 6, everyone could only withstand one tower hit at most, and would die if they took more. Now, the tower's attack growth has been reduced by 50, so before level 6, everyone can withstand two tower hits, and will only die on the third hit.

Forget about dog heads and angels, they can go back to the sewers of the arena.

And here comes the crucial part.

Zeli has been reworked and her W skill has been buffed. Players who played in Season 12 and haven't quit should clearly remember a period when AP Zeli with maxed W was a common sight in the mid lane – that refers to this version.

"Sometimes I even suspect that you've hacked into the designer's computer."

Looking at the changes in this version.

The three coaches looked at Luo Ji with increasingly strange expressions.

Version research is based on cracking the version as quickly as possible after it is released in order to find the best way to rank up, but you've already got Observation Haki, right?
Moreover, it's the kind that predicts the future.

"If I could hack into the designer's computer, wouldn't I change the top lane meta?" Luo Ji rolled his eyes at his coaching staff while pondering the key to defeating RNG.

Bottom lane!

Yes, although RNG's overall rhythm is mainly driven by Hu Ming, their true floor is still in the corner.

If we're talking about RNG...

Xiaohu's ceiling is the insurmountable Al-Hex Mountains, while the bottom line is the unfathomable Bermuda Triangle of RNG's strength.

(PS: The above locations are based on a wilderness survival expert named "Big Cannon")
As this was the first seemingly strong team V5 faced after returning from MSI, the official organizers were very accommodating and assigned a three-person commentary team: Tongxi, Daxiao, and Langx.

Especially wolf-like behavior.

We brought him here purely to cause trouble.

Theoretically speaking, no player who comes from RNG has a strained relationship with any player who doesn't come from RNG.

What is stiff?
The problem lies in the strained relationship with RNG's management.

Langx from S10 once delivered the famous "Farewell to the Cage" moment, successfully leaving RNG by acting crazy. However, after joining LGD, he was then thwarted by Peanut at the World Championship, whose Pain Mask shattered his pride.

Immediately afterwards, S11 transferred to V5.

The sixteen-game losing streak left him utterly desperate, forcing him to retire. But who would have thought that as soon as he retired, V5's record would instantly go from last place to first place?

Look at it this way.

He has a bit of an unlucky streak.

As soon as the opening commentary was finished, the colonel immediately steered the conversation toward Wolf: "Hey, we were just joking backstage that our two former teams are here, and both of them have really good records right now."

"what?"

Wolf was taken aback.

When have you ever joked with me like this from the audience?
His mind, which was a bit slow, momentarily went blank, and his wolf face instantly transformed into that of a husky with extremely high bloodlines. Seeing that the entertainment effect had been achieved, the colonel changed the subject and redirected everyone's attention back to the competition.

This was Wolf's first time on the commentary panel.

They are not yet skilled at performing on stage.

If it were the highly talented Cat Emperor, even if he didn't successfully catch the joke with self-deprecation, he would just laugh it off.

[Wolf, I bet you're regretting it now that you see V5's lineup.]

[Regret my ass! If he hadn't left, how would Mebius have come to V5? And if Mebius hadn't come, who would make up for the lack of entertainment value?]

[Xiao Xu Show: Spring is over, and the shelf life of the Spring Tiger Emperor is about to end, but summer is here. Is Little Tiger ready to "show off"?]

[Show soldiers, assemble!]

Before the competition even started, the fans in the live chat had already spontaneously formed their own groups.

Again.

Fans need to accumulate through victories and honors. Even if RNG underperforms, it is still a powerhouse team that has won multiple championships, and Ga La and Xiao Hu inexplicably have a large number of fans and supporters.

In contrast, V5...

Rookie is on leave, Casa has more casual fans, but Luo Ji is attracting a lot of fans.

But there are too many funny people among his fans.

They're the type who will instinctively run to the other side when a fight breaks out, unless their opponent is Apex Legends or Three Kingdoms Kill.

soon.

The business process (BP) between the two sides begins.

The ban slots are mainly given to junglers, and by the way, the Luna and Karlie combination from RNG is broken up. Strictly speaking, the combination of Ga La and Ming in RNG's bot lane is not a particularly strong laning combination, but if they get the meta bot lane, the pressure will naturally be different.

RNG was not to be outdone and banned V5's Zeli.

soon.

Casting on both sides:

V5: Top lane Gnar, Jungle Rek'Sai, Mid lane Ahri, Bot lane Kalista + Vi

RNG: Top laner Gwen, Jungler Lee Sin, Mid laner Azir, Bot lane Aphelios + Braum
The draft picks for this game.

For RNG, it was nothing short of terrifying.

During the second round of picking, even though Lena had already been banned, V5 still picked Kalista.

Picking Kalista was one thing, but then they even picked Vi as their fifth pick, completely throwing RNG, who had picked Aphelios, into disarray.

What can be done?
You can't pair Aphelios with Tahm Kench, otherwise what's the point of the bottom lane?
I was confused for a while.

Only then did he reluctantly take Breast.

In this high-fault-tolerant version, RNG has no problem with having three cores in the top, mid, and bottom lanes. The only problem is that V5's lineup is a bit too strange.

"Support Vi?"

"Is V5 now playing this fancy game even in other positions?"

The three commentators were still discussing it.

The live stream chat exploded with comments.

【I understand this strategy; it's been used a lot in the LCK!】

[With a shield, a lock-on ability, and a glacier that slows enemies, she's like a female version of Titan ( )]

[Q skill is flexible and almost as good as Gragas' E for interrupting enemies; W skill provides percentage armor penetration, which is very beneficial in team fights; R skill is a ganking godsend. No problem with this choice.]

[Can my top-tier understanding of the Silver rank finally reach the LPL professional arena?] In fact.

This strategy first appeared in LCK version 12.10, when V5 was bullying the top three weak teams, and many professional players in LCK were already using it.

The talent is Glacier.

With stable control, it also benefits greatly from the warrior's damage and damage mitigation. Most importantly, its ultimate skill locks onto targets, which, combined with the excavator's ultimate skill, can completely eliminate any room for the enemy to make a difference in team fights.

The moment the lineup was announced.

in the screen.

Gala's face turned dark almost instantly, almost visibly.

Are you even human?
Against other teams, he's just a normal bot laner, but against himself, he gets locked down by Rek'Sai and Vi's ultimates. Is he Uzi? Why are we targeting him like this?

After the game entered the loading screen, Casa also spoke up and asked Luo Ji's location:

"I dream, are you sure Nar is okay?"

“Probably.”

Luo Ji was somewhat unsure.

The main reason was that when he watched the game, he noticed that 369's Gnar was getting better and better, but he still hadn't gained Karsa's approval.

"should?"

"I only have a basic understanding of it."

As players in the same club, they should theoretically know each other's hero pools.

Luo Ji's hero pool is too wide.

It was so widespread that anyone could play any game that appeared by clicking on a question mark. People paid attention for a while, but then stopped paying attention.

but
Thinking back to when the two first met, Luo Ji jokingly told him that he was already practicing with Gragas and Nar.

that,
It probably means "not bad", right?

His talent goes without saying.

For the primary rune path, choose Swift Steps; for the secondary rune path, choose Bone; the rest can be chosen casually. The key is the choice of starting items and the pink dinosaur skin.

Normally.

Gnar should build Doran's Shield against Gwen.

But who is this guy?

This guy's Gnar was mentored by TheShy, and he started with TheShy's Blade. This build completely baffled all the commentators.

"extraction?"

"Is this still Luo Ji? Why is he suddenly acting so fierce?"

"Something's wrong, nine out of ten is wrong!"

According to the opinions of many commentators.

Luo Ji is the kind of steady top laner who can carry if you help him, and play it safe if you don't. The key is that he almost never plays recklessly and always plays to win.

Available today.

Are you possessed by TheShy?
"Holy crap, what exactly did Cheng Lu teach him?"

off screen.

Saint Gun was stunned by what he saw.

Have you even finished learning my playstyle? You've already started copying TheShy's style. That's not how you get arrogant.

Your method is wrong.

If the enemy jungler Wei sees this, won't the top laner gank relentlessly?

etc.
Grab it hard!?
Saint Gun suddenly realized what was going on. Looking at V5's lineup again, he saw Kalista and Vi in the bot lane, while the opposing team had Braum, who had no mobility.

The game version has also been updated to 12.11, so the turrets can withstand a bit more damage.

I see through!
Is it this dirty?!

now.

The RNG team in the game were definitely too caught up in the moment to react; even if they did realize what was happening, it would take them a little while.

Start.

Apart from necessary jungle defense, Luo Ji did not try to steal his favorite top lane bushes, nor did he proactively leave the tower to check the enemy top laner's position before the minion wave arrived.

Very simple.

His start in the game was very unforgiving.

A normal laning phase is already a tightrope walk; if he goes out and gets ambushed and loses some health, then he can practically say that the game is over.

Nar couldn't crouch down in the grass and could only breathe.

After going live.

Upon immediately noticing the Shy Knife in Luo Ji's equipment inventory, his eyebrows instantly furrowed, and he fell into deep self-doubt.

He had watched Luo Ji's matches.

Even when playing against weaker teams' top laners, I'm always quite cautious. But how come when I'm laning against someone, the opponent suddenly builds such aggressive items?

Can't he put pressure on the opposing team in lane?
As the saying goes.

As the saying goes, "A big forest has all kinds of birds," and "A big bird has all kinds of rich women." As a top laner in the vast pool of LPL players, I would say that I consider myself to be one of the more aggressive laners.

Upon seeing Thy's knife, a murderous intent immediately surged within him.

After the minions arrive.

Seeing Gwen breathing, A soldier tentatively emerged from the bushes.

Luo Ji was also fearless. Despite having a longer reach, he used his Q skill to attack without hesitation, even though he had built a Shy Blade.

The best defense is offense.

He still had the advantage at level one, but seeing the opponent emerge from the bushes so early, he figured they would come out to fight him at level two.

At this point, you should quickly reduce the opponent's health.

When should we press it?
At this moment, the top laner looked extremely aggressive.

Breathing: Do you want to test if my parameters are high?
Luo Ji: My parameters aren't bad either!
