I'm a platinum-level author, so what if I play professionally?

Chapter 86: I've thought about it, let's just stick to finishing them off honestly.

As Snake Team locked down the T0 support Janna with Ardent Censer on the third floor, cheers erupted from the crowd.

Commentator Guan Zeyuan shouted, "Here it comes! Janna! In that case, Snake has secured a scaling bot lane duo! To be honest, I have to admire Snake. At this crucial moment, they actually chose to pick this lineup to go head-to-head with WE's strongest strategy!"

Rita, however, spoke with some concern: "But we all know that Snake Esports rarely uses this kind of system in previous matches. They tend to build their lineups around their mid, top, and jungle, while this is WE's forte."

Guan Zeyuan, clearly enjoying the spectacle, chuckled and said, "Anyway, I believe White has his own ideas! For now, we can only trust him. Perhaps Snake Esports will bring us something surprising again. Do you remember when they played against EDG? Snake Esports also unusually pulled out an operational system, defeating EDG using EDG's most effective tactics. Maybe White is trying to replicate that situation today."

In the live stream room, the comments section was buzzing with activity.

【Wow, they're really picking Janna?】

I can only say they're invincible.

[The Snake team really loves their arrogant attitude; they just want to teach their opponents a lesson, don't they?]

[Bai Chu: Do you understand the four-protect-one strategy? Let me teach you.]

[All he does is try to scam people all day. He won a game against EDG by sheer luck and now he thinks he's all that.]

[You idiot snake team, take him away and we'll get a van full of guys to beat you up!]

[Haha, the 60e bread man has begun.]

[Don't laugh, fans of the three main brands, none of you should mock each other.]

I'm a Royal Never Give Up (RNG) supporter, and today I'm supporting WE.

The Snake team's player selection actually relieved Redmi.

I've been playing the four-protect-one strategy for a whole season, what makes you, a newbie who just started playing, think you can compete with me?

Both sides entered the second round of tag.

Snake Team targeted WE's yet-to-be-released mid and jungle players, opting to ban Jarvan IV and Yasuo.

WE, on the other hand, banned Kled and Fizz, the same champions that Snake had previously used in their strategy.

According to Hongmi, Snake Team is very likely to field a mid-lane Kled to protect the bottom lane.

The right to select then fell into the hands of the Snake team.

At this point, the core lineup of the Snake team has been completed, and for the remaining player selections, it is only necessary to consider team synergy.

So Wang Ke immediately gave Galio to Song Wen in the mid lane, and even reminded him, "Don't give me another Thunderlord's Decree this game, we don't need your damage output."

Hearing Wang Ke's words, Song Wen chuckled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I'm such a person who lacks a sense of the bigger picture?"

But his hands never stopped moving; he silently changed the talent he had already selected from Thunder to Colossus.

The right to vote has returned to WE.

After seeing Galio on the opposing team, Redmi really wanted Xiye to pick Yasuo.

However, Yasuo had already been banned by Snake Esports.

They also took Jayce, a champion they could have picked, but they cancelled it themselves.

Assassin-type mid laners are not only weak in the current version, but they also seem out of place with the overall team composition.

What disgusted Redmi the most was that at this point, WE had almost no good options left in the jungle position.

When he realized it later, he found that he had been completely outmatched by the opponent in the draft phase.

Currently, the only strong jungler hero still available is Elise.

After some thought, Redmi decided to forgo the Spider, which Condi hadn't performed well with, and instead picked Vi instead.

Although Vi's strength is very low in the current version, she still has the ability to lock onto targets, which can help counter AD carries like Kog'Maw who lack mobility.

Then, in the mid lane, WE locked in Taliyah.

WE has clearly placed all their bets on the bottom lane.

The right to choose has returned to the Snakes.

Wang Ke ultimately allowed the top laner, Flandre, to take down Gnar.

Gnar is arguably the core top laner in the Ardent Censer composition.

In fact, the requirements for top laners in version S7 are very high.

Because both sides will choose support champions, this will result in both teams having a certain deficiency in their ability to initiate team fights.

At this point, the choice of the top lane position must take two points into consideration.

First, they have the ability to initiate team fights; second, they have the ability to split push.

This is why champions like AD Kennen and Gnar are so sought after at the World Championship.

These types of heroes can split push in the early and mid-game when the team is still developing, and can take on the responsibility of initiating team fights in the mid and late game when the team needs to engage in team fights.

Therefore, the ability of top laners is extremely important in S7.

If you don't understand how to play solo lane, you'll basically end up getting whipped around like a top.

At this point, the lineups for both sides were finalized.

Blue side: WE Esports Club VS Red side: Snake Esports Club.

Top lane: (957) Twisted Treant VS (Flandre) Lost Fang.

Jungler: (condi) Piltover Enforcer VS (sofm) Lee Sin.

Mid lane: (iye) Taliyah VS (black) Galio.

ADC: (Mystic) Twitch VS (Kryst4I) Kog'Maw.

Support: (ben) Purple Garlic VS (white) You Wind.

Looking at the lineups of both sides, the chat in the live stream started to discuss.

Why does it seem like Snake Team's roster is a bit better?

To be honest, using your brain is really useful.

[The kind of person who is most cunning is the one who wears the umbrella with the grain side facing backwards for their own use.]

【? 】

[I feel like Shirai is the kind of person who goes through security with a metal ring around his neck, letting the security guard feel him all morning.]

[I feel like Shiro is the kind of person who wears a rubber band and tries to fool young girls by saying it's super thin.]

[I feel like Bai Chu is the kind of person whose tattoo is tattooed under his foreskin; it's the kind of tattoo that could be used for military service or civil service exams, but can also be used to make a living in the underworld.]

What about the blackout?

[I feel like Kuro is the kind of person who would strip a young girl naked on the street and say she has a military map tattooed on her butt and is a spy.]

】

Wang Ke was unaware that he had only played two games before being slandered and ridiculed by netizens.

Wang Ke, who has always maintained a low profile, can only be said to have benefited from Song Wen's influence, which immediately attracted the attention of netizens.

"Achoo!"

On the Snake Team's bench, Wang Ke and Song Wen sneezed almost simultaneously.

They then looked at each other simultaneously and asked, "Did you fucking swear at me?"

The two exchanged a glance, then simultaneously looked at the pink-clad woman.

Song Wen said menacingly, "You Vietnamese bastard, come to my room after the match."

The girl looked completely bewildered, her face etched with ignorance.

At this point, both sides had entered the game and had chosen late-game compositions. Naturally, they wouldn't risk engaging in a level 1 team fight, so they both opted for a long, straight formation and followed the minion waves to the lane.

Both sides want to go online as soon as possible so they can gain control of the lane.

Wang Ke was slightly nervous as he controlled Janna to go online.

Compared to hard supports, soft supports actually require more micro-management skills.

Especially when both sides have enchanter supports, controlling the bushes becomes a key factor in gaining an advantage in the early laning phase.

Fortunately, Wang Ke has also conducted a lot of research on the positioning and attrition of support players.

After noticing that WE's bot lane duo would be slower to spawn, Wang Ke immediately stood in front of the enemy's backline minions and began charging up his Wind Slash.

Once the enemy bot lane duo comes online, this wind can blow both the enemy and the minions together.

It doesn't matter if no one was hit, at least the soldiers were hit.

Wang Ke then retreated into the bushes and used his position to attack Lulu while blocking her vision.

The moment he made his move, Wang Ke immediately retreated, because Lulu would definitely use her Q skill on him; as long as he dodged the Q—

I didn't manage to dodge it, but it wasn't a big deal.

Now that Lulu doesn't have her Q, she can push forward and use basic attacks.

Wang Ke calculated the timing of both players' skills, instantly unleashing a Q to knock Lulu into the air, and then immediately retreated to try and dodge Lulu's second Q.

It didn't break, but it's not a big problem.

Since Lulu used all her Qs on herself in the early game, the lane priority will definitely be with Snake.

Next comes the classic maneuver that tests a player's support skills.

Dodge skills when you leave the bushes, dodge basic attacks when you enter the bushes.

Wang Ke's thinking was very clear, after all, these laning details were deeply engraved in his mind.

But for some reason, I can understand it in my head, but my hands just just can't seem to learn it!

The two sides had only been laning for thirty seconds when Wang Ke got angry, and Song Wen's mocking laughter came from the mid lane.

"Dude, what are you doing, using basic attacks in the bushes and then taking skills in the bushes?"

"You don't know anything! I'm just helping the AD carry relieve some pressure. Tell me if I managed to clear the lane or not!"

"Hahaha!"

Song Wen's mocking laughter sounded particularly grating.

In the live stream, the director was clearly very interested in the bottom lane matchup between the two sides, keeping a close eye on the bottom lane from the start.

Thus, Wang Ke's amazing move was broadcast live.

【6666. 】

Hahaha, this Janna is hilarious!

[A powerful and unstoppable wind spirit.]

[I just praised Haku, what's going on here?]

[Leaving the bushes allows you to use basic attacks, while entering the bushes allows you to use skills, hahaha!]

[This support play by Bai Chu is a bit abstract.]

Snakes' bench.

After trying a few more times, Wang Ke finally gave up on his illusions.

It seems that my strength is indeed somewhat lacking.

However, in reality, Wang Ke was being somewhat overly self-deprecating.

WE's bot lane duo is undoubtedly a top-tier bot lane combination, not only in the LPL but also globally.

If Wang Ke's debut match hadn't been against WE, he wouldn't have faced so much pressure in the bottom lane.

As for why they were able to gain an advantage in the early game, it was entirely due to the advantage of their lineup. Furthermore, WE's bot lane duo did not initially regard Snake's bot lane as a threat, playing a lineup that clearly could not secure lane priority but still came up to contest level 2.

In this game, both sides used soft supports, and in a sense, Lulu is actually better at countering Janna.

During the World Championship, Lulu was once prioritized over Janna because Lulu was stronger than Janna during the laning phase.

The reason why Janna was prioritized over Lulu later was because Janna was stronger than Lulu in both protecting the AD carry and protecting herself.

Wang Ke quickly realized this as well. He was clearly influenced by Song Wen's arrogant attitude and was also thinking about gaining an advantage in the lane.

Anyway, if there's a problem, just shift the blame to Song Wen and that's it.

"I've thought about it," Wang Ke said. "Let's just stick to finishing him off, Crystal."
