LOL: The strongest all-Chinese team? My G2 top laner

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

"The match is about to begin!"

At the RNG base, the door to a small conference room on the second floor had just been pushed open when the team members came out in twos and threes, looking somewhat tired.

Kwon Damon then raised his voice, calling out to the RNG members who had just finished their tactical review meeting:

"We played a full game against IG today, and then reviewed the match afterwards."

"There's no need for training tonight."

"Let's rest after watching the game!"

MLXG plopped down on the sofa, rubbed his eyes, and asked, "Brother Quan, what match is going on so late at night?"

Damon smiled mysteriously and slammed the projector remote on the table: "The only Chinese import in Europe, former RNG top laner Demon's LEC debut!"

"We don't have any streaming platforms that buy the official LCS broadcast stream."

"I had to search for a long time on Bilibili to find this privately pirated live stream."

Upon hearing this, MLXG blinked his previously dazed eyes, then stood up, waved his hand, and said, "I hate English the most. It gives me a headache when I hear those chattering gibberish. You guys, I'm going to go grind some monsters in a custom game."

"What's so interesting about studying money-grabbing competitions in Europe and America?"

"If you're going to watch something, watch LCK!"

When Jiang Ling was still with RNG, he had the best relationship with MLXG.

Therefore, the two have always followed each other on Weibo.

MLXG was fully aware that Jiang Ling had just received his visa yesterday and was already in Europe today preparing to play in a match.

He understood that Damon had suddenly pulled this stunt to see Jiang Ling make a fool of himself.

After all, Jiang Ling had only just arrived in Europe.

There was no time to get along with my teammates.

He didn't even fully understand the professional English vocabulary used for communication during the competition!

Add to that the ordeal of a flight of more than ten hours, and then immediately going to the field to play a match, how good can one's condition be?

"You idiot, you're so petty..."

MLXG cursed under his breath, then turned and walked into the training room without saying another word.

Then, I quietly took out my phone, put on my headphones, and went to Bilibili to find a live stream that was illegally broadcasting the LCS EU region matches.

On the other side, Damon completely disregarded MLXG's attitude. He turned around and addressed the crowd:

"I've ordered the late-night snack, it'll be here soon!"

"Watching Western food while eating Western food—just thinking about it is awesome!"

Letme immediately replied:

"How can Western food look good and taste good at the same time?"

Damon laughed:

"Our Chinese food can be called Chinese cuisine."

"So European cuisine is just Western food, isn't it?"

He emphasized the word "vegetables" very much.

In addition, with the sayings circulating online such as "Europe and America are just money grabbers" and "Europe has no strong teams," the rest of RNG immediately understood his double entendre.

A burst of snickering immediately filled the room.

Then, the BP page officially appeared on the screen.

Many LPL viewers, who had no way to watch the official LEC live stream, flocked to this pirated live stream room.

In an instant, the comments section was flooded with messages:

"Let's give Europe a real shock from the Chinese!"

"Go Demon! Uphold our national prestige!"

"Playing in Europe is a real source of pride for the LPL!"

"Although I don't understand the European server, I support Demon!"

"Use Camille to kick these white pigs to pieces!"

"..."

The live stream chat was filled with praise for Jiang Ling.

Damon's face darkened as he watched the words "promote our national prestige" and "bring honor" flash across the screen.

Don't miss out: Chapter 29, "You Understand BP," is available in its entirety. Click here.

He snorted and waved to the staff member next to him, saying, "Turn off the comments. They're ruining the viewing experience; they're a mess."

The staff member turned off the live chat as instructed.

At the start of the BO, the first three ban slots for both sides were quickly filled.

In the first round of ban/pick, MSF banned Camille, Jayce, and Fiora without hesitation.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Upon seeing this, Damon and Letme couldn't suppress their smiles.

Letme exclaimed in a deep voice, "MSF's coach is amazing at drafting!"

Damon slapped his thigh, his tone full of schadenfreude, "Who says otherwise? Everyone knows that these three heroes are Jiang Ling's three signature moves."

Letme leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Now look at him, all three of his signature moves are banned. Let's see what hero he picks this game."

"Let's get the meat."

Damon casually chimed in, "After all, he's only good at those three carry-type champions! If he picks a carry-type top laner he's not proficient with, wouldn't he just be feeding? Picking a tank, on the other hand, might give him a chance to survive."

Upon hearing this, Letme's expression turned somewhat unnatural, but he quickly regained his composure and echoed, "Exactly, exactly! Kwon-hyung is absolutely right!"

……

Shortly after, the draft phase ended, and the final lineup was determined.

G2 (Blue Side):

Top lane Sion, Jungle Gragas, Mid lane Yasuo, Bot lane Xayah + Rakan

MSF Red Team:

[Top lane Gnar, Jungle Sejuani, Mid lane Ryze, Bot lane Lucian + Pyke]

"Pfft—cough cough cough!"

Damon, who had just returned from pouring water, saw G2's top lane champion and tried to laugh but choked, his face turning red.

"Sion?"

"G2 picked Sion for Jiang Ling?"

Damon coughed and laughed, tears welling in his eyes: "Does Jiang Ling even know how to play a tank? We'll just pick Sion for him!"

Letme couldn't help but laugh. Looking at Sion on the screen, he added sarcastically, "Sion has a zombie form when he dies. Two lives are perfect for absorbing more damage for the team, right? This is the optimal solution for picking a tank for him."

"So it seems G2's coach is good at drafting and banning (BP) after all!"

Letme then changed the subject, "Knowing Jiang Ling doesn't know how to play with meat (meat), I specially got him a meat that's still useful even after it dies!"

Upon hearing this, Damon burst into laughter, laughing so hard he almost fell over.

Seeing this, Xiao Hu, who was sitting next to him, immediately twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing an expression that said, "I also think it's very funny."

However, when he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that Uzi, Shi Senming, and the others sitting on the other sofa were not laughing, and even had a slightly embarrassed expression on their faces because of Damon and Letme's banter, Xiaohu immediately suppressed his smile.

And his expression instantly turned serious.

All I can say is, the speed at which this face-swapping works is incredible!

Of course, Xiaohu did not give up.

His distinctive hoarse voice sounded particularly jarring in RNG's rest room: "Yan Junze is absolutely right. With Camille, Fiora, and Jayce banned, Jiang Ling really doesn't have many champions left to play. Otherwise, he wouldn't have picked Sion, a champion that Riot has nerfed to pieces..."

Since Season 8, Sion has consistently been a Tier 1 tank in the top lane, especially around the time of the MSI patch. His playstyle of rushing Banner of Command and dominating with a bunch of minions was even more terrifying in the mid lane.

Riot's designers clearly couldn't stand this "command-based" playstyle and had their eyes on Sion early on.

In versions 8.8 and 8.9, the designers made two consecutive nerfs to Sion's vital arteries.

First, the shield value of his W skill [Savage Strike] was nerfed, greatly reducing his ability to trade blows during the laning phase; then, in patch 8.9, the damage of his E skill was nerfed, significantly reducing Sion's lane poke ability with Comet.
