My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 320 The Unexpected Trouble, "I'll Do It" - An Inferiority Complex
The BO3 match has just begun.

WBG immediately put a big project on V5, or rather, TheShy put a big project on Luo Ji.

Before the match, Luo Ji thought it would be a showdown between the two teams, but in the first game, he directly picked a warrior top laner, intending to use Irelia to kick Shy's butt hard.

结果
In WBG's first game, the top laner was a Malphite.

Although they ultimately won the game.

But when the first game ended and the camera focused on the faces of the two top laners, Luo Ji looked as if he had eaten shit, while TheShy on the other side had a bright smile like a blooming chrysanthemum.

[Hilarious! Did I get tricked by Shy in this situation?]

There's a reason why TheShy gets Malphite. His problem is that he sometimes plays without thinking, but picking Malphite allows him to connect to Malphite and share the network, making him instantly smarter (doge).

Why doesn't Malphite use his ultimate? Because the enemy team all have Flash; why doesn't he use Flash? Because Malphite hasn't used his ultimate yet, creating a vicious cycle.

The world is focused on you (all of the world's top brains are working here)

This one.

Luo Ji practically won without lifting a finger.

It had nothing to do with the top lane. Irelia wasn't a strong pick in the current meta. I just picked her with the idea of ​​showing off against the opponent. However, TheShy's Malphite was as solid as a turret, and Luo Ji almost broke through the defense in the top lane.

"Dream God, didn't you say you and Shy had great chemistry? Why today?"

Weiwei looked at Luo Ji with suspicion.

Before the game.

The preparations were so thorough that they almost thought today's match was a world war, and even Ruler was subconsciously provoked to fight by the atmosphere.

but.
All I can say is that the WBG (I Will Do It) team lives up to its name.

This sudden, outrageous move was so shocking it nearly broke the backs of everyone inside and outside the arena.

"I do not know."

Luo Ji shook his head.

"But in the next round, they'll probably choose the blue side, and we're the red side counter. I refuse to believe they can guess the answer correctly!"

however.

He had barely finished speaking when Nofe, who had received the message, rudely interrupted him.

"Wrong, the opponent will still choose the red side in the next game."

"Round it up or down."

"The enemy top laner is already a lower-ranked player than our top laner. If you want to fight against the enemy's top laner, you can only see if they are willing to accept your challenge."

"?"

WBG here.

TheShy, who lost the first game, couldn't stop smiling backstage, showing off his signature big white teeth. Seeing him like this, the WBG players naturally remained calm and composed.

no way.

There are too many big shots in the team.

Top laner Shy, mid laner Tiger, bottom laner Tear_Wound.

These were all seasoned veterans of the competition, and even Leyan seemed to have seen it all. Their nonchalant demeanor left Deng Huang completely bewildered.

and
quickly.

In the second game, TheShy continued to annoy LuoJi, but the difference was that WBG won the second game.

The fifth Counter position.

Facing Luo Ji's top lane Gnar, he directly countered with a top lane Nidalee. In fact, not only in S15, but also in the original S13 Spring Split, he used Nidalee to deal with Qingtian's top lane Quesanti in a match against TES.

Just for this life.

He had been hiding it all this time to annoy Luo Ji, and only took it out to use it today.

While the top laner Nidalee made several unexpected plays, the mid laner, Spring Tiger Emperor, awakened once again, working with Leyan to create a perfect rhythm.

1:1 flat.

I thought that Luo Ji, who had been outmaneuvered twice, would have some negative emotions.

result.

When everyone's eyes turned to him.

But to my surprise, he wasn't as angry as I'd imagined; instead, he laughed.

Yes, he smiled.

"Oh no, has the Dream God gone mad?"

Jwei spoke somewhat uneasily, then turned his gaze to the mid lane. "FO, you just got completely destroyed by that enemy's Sao Hu, say something!"

"Mine, mine."

FOFO scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

He's a top-tier gatekeeper top laner, and under normal circumstances, he should have a 50/50 chance against Xiaohu. But the boost Xiaohu received in the spring was too terrifying, and he completely stunned Xiaohu.

The only team that performed normally throughout the game was the bottom lane, where Ruler played.

No matter what.

Studying medicine won't save them.
Ahem, AD can't save the world, unless it's Season 7.

"The shy today, he's treating my dream like Liren's."

auditorium.

Both Lao Qiang and Lao Gong remained silent.

If they were to go up there, their mentality would be somewhat broken, especially the Nidalee in the second game. Gnar's mobility is simply incomparable to Nidalee's. They originally wanted to turn the tide through team fights, but they ran into Xiaohu who was just eating dumplings.

What can be done?
I guess I'll just have to wait for the next game to get my revenge.

"The main reason is that WBG was on the red side for two consecutive games, and in the fifth counter pick, they had planned from the beginning to use TheShy to counter Luo Ji. It has to be said that WBG's new coach, Dani, is very insightful."

S13.

WBG's most significant acquisition isn't their bot, mid, jungle, or support roles, but rather coach Daeny. In Luo Ji's memory, he, Hongmi, and Tabe are the only three truly capable coaches in the LPL.

Kai Mao is only half a brain; he would only be considered a full brain if he combined his left and right hemispheres with Zhu Kai's.

As for Nofe, strictly speaking, he's not an LPL coach. It's only because he flapped his own wings so much that he became a coach.

soon.

The third match's draft phase then began.

WBG: Top lane Renekton, Jungle Sejuani, Mid lane Tristana, Bot lane Zeree + Lulu
V5: Top lane Jayce, Jungle Wukong, Mid lane Syndra, Bot lane Aphelios + Annie
Let me mention this here.

In the S13 Spring Split version, the designers changed Infinity Edge and Swift Blade to trigger their effects with 40% critical strike chance. This change allows ADCs to start exerting their power with just two items by 20 minutes.

Simultaneously.

Because the jungle's rewards were too low, the junglers' frequent ganking and lack of farming in matches went against the designers' original intentions, so the jungle's rewards were slightly adjusted back.

This means.

The pace of the game is starting to shift more and more towards the bottom lane.

The top lane has become a true orphan lane. Players either build tanky items to absorb damage from a farmed AD carry in team fights, or they choose a solo lane and farm aggressively in the top lane.

WBG's first two top lane games corresponded to one of these interpretations.

And now.

Choosing a crocodile was a last resort.

In professional matches, Renekton is considered a tank role. Only when paired with a jungler who excels at tower diving can he be considered a counter role. In this game, Dani undoubtedly chose to sacrifice TheShy.

just
Jayce?

Looking at the loading screen during the match, Dani's astonishment was even more evident when she discovered that Jayce's rune was Conqueror.

"Bro, do we really not need to help the top lane this game?"

After the game starts.

Weiwei was still worried, so she asked her team's top laner about it.

"No need, just focus on protecting the mid and bot lanes. The other team annoyed me twice, so I'm definitely going to annoy them back this time."

"what?"

"Just trust me."

"okay."

Weiwei verbally agreed, but in her heart she was wondering whether she should listen to this older brother. If it were any other hero, it would be fine, maybe he really had some tricks up his sleeve.

Ke Jies?
Isn't this something that's been overused in professional esports?

early stage.

Luo Ji's long reach gives him an undeniable advantage over his short reach opponent.

In fact, he had already played against a number of LCK top laners with Jayce during the World Championship, including one who played Renekton. At that time, he unsurprisingly dominated his lane opponent.

If it were TheShy at his peak
Perhaps he can even have a little battle with Luo Ji.

But when facing Luo Ji Jies, the elderly Shy finally felt the immense pressure of facing his opponent again.

"It's completely different from when I'm soloing."

"This guy"

"Are you angry? Why are you playing so seriously this game?"

Perhaps because his behavior in the first two games was too blatant, TheShy, feeling somewhat guilty, also chose to play cautiously when he saw the frequency of the opponent's floor play.

It does not matter.

Others thought he craved to clash with strong opponents, but in reality he simply enjoyed the process of the game. However, as he was already on the decline, he understood even more that sometimes, in order to win, one must give up some of the things one wants.

For example—willfulness.

TheShy in S13 was actually a top laner who had already awakened and matured quite a bit.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said in the pre-match vlog of the original world: "I won the World Championship too quickly in my career. I didn't realize how difficult it was before. After failing to qualify many times, I finally understand how difficult it really is."

While Luo Ji was learning laning skills from him.

Isn't he also learning Luo Ji's character?

For a professional player, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and there are too many uncertainties, such as the version of the game, the team, the player's form, and both on-field and off-field factors.

But that's life.

Too early to enjoy success and achieve fame, one becomes unaware of the hardships of life.

Ever since.

When Luo Ji suddenly sensed TheShy's change on the field, his first reaction wasn't anger, but happiness—happiness for the opponent's transformation.

The entire first six levels.

The lower half of the canyon was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

Weiwei and Leyan were practically living in the bottom half of the bracket, each showing off their unique skills. However, Ruler's performance was too strong. Even Elk couldn't withstand Ruler this year, let alone the AD carry, Lamp, whose talent was even less.

early stage.

V5's advantage almost entirely lies in their bot lane.

On the other hand, in the top lane, although Luo Ji was also suppressing TheShy's lane, there were no new strategies, no solo kills, and TheShy was still avoiding fights and waiting for level 6, so it felt like there was nothing interesting to watch.

[This is boring. It was supposed to be a royal city showdown, but it turned into a bunch of turtles fighting?]

TheShy isn't young anymore. Although his Nidalee performance in the last game was still amazing, he seems less willing to go head-to-head with Dream.

Let's focus the camera on the bottom lane; at least there's real competition there.

[The bot lane can no longer contain Ruler. It's unbelievable that the former "Dog King" is now dominating the LPL.]

Many viewers have expressed their dissatisfaction.

however.

Seemingly sensing the audience's resentment, just as Jayce returned to base for the first time, an item that no one had ever thought of, or even found unbelievable, began to appear in his inventory in a place where it shouldn't be.

Thorn vest, also known as small thorn vest.

This one.
It seems to be a Jax build with armor penetration!?
