LOL: What does "mid-lane hybrid expert" mean?

The short break is over.

Both teams took to the field, beginning the fourth round of the competition.

"We've received word that IG has chosen the blue side. The two sides have switched sides; let's see what adjustments IG will make," Guan Zeyuan said.

"IG's first two bans were against lane-swap champions they couldn't handle: Thresh and Kalista. The third ban was Galio, it seems IG's coaching staff is determined not to let this champion through."

"So how do we deal with the cards that performed well in the last game?" Guan Zeyuan asked, but he already had a hero in mind.

"Yasuo!"

"As expected, IG locked in Yasuo on the first floor!"

"If you recall, the first time Yasuo's EQ flash play appeared in a professional match was when Rookie pulled it off in the decisive game against VG in the S5 Summer Split." Guan Zeyuan clearly had a strong impression of that match.

Su Xiaoyan chimed in: "Yes, Yasuo is a 10/0 matchup against Twisted Fate. Picking Yasuo first actually relieved the pressure on IG in the next two draft picks, allowing them to better target EDG's bot lane."

The final lineup has been confirmed.

IG (blue side) - Top laner Gnar, jungler Zac, mid laner Yasuo, bot lane Kog'Maw and Lulu.

EDG (Red Team): Top lane Jax, Jungle Elise, Mid lane Kled, Bot lane Ashe and Braum.

"Kled in the mid lane?" Su Xiaoyan's voice was full of doubt. "As far as I remember, only Doinb tried it once in the LPL Spring Split."

"Yes, and that match was against EDG, and the result was not satisfactory," Guan Zeyuan added.

"We still need to see what kind of effect LeeE can achieve."

We've moved online.

Li Yi was not in a hurry to learn skills.

Instead, they circled around to the lower river bushes, hugging the top of the wall closest to the blue team, and came to Yasuo's side and rear.

Start with a basic attack.

After breaking Yasuo's passive [Way of the Wanderer] shield, Li Yi immediately moved to the side and dodged Yasuo's Q [Steel Blade].

  

The instant after the previous basic attack, Li Yi pressed Alt and W, triggering the [Violent Nature] passive, canceling the aftercast animation of the previous basic attack and quickly unleashing four more basic attacks.

"A brilliant blood transfusion!"

"Although Rookie's Yasuo retaliated with an AQA combo, Kled's W hit the final blow was extremely painful. At the same time, Kled's passive [Cowardly Lizard] actually gives him tankiness far exceeding that of other champions of the same level."

This is happening in EDG's team voice chat at this moment.

Li Yi returned to the minion wave and reminded Iboy in the bottom lane, "Don't rush to use Ashe's E. I'll call you when I find an opportunity to tower dive."

Three minutes and forty-five seconds.

Li Yi seized the opportunity to use his E to move forward and trade blows with Yasuo. At the same time, he noticed that Yasuo had used his only health potion to save his health, so he immediately applied Ignite to reduce his healing.

"Ashes's E hits the enemy's blue buff!"

"The spider can prepare to dive the tower."

Ashe, from the Project skin, unleashed her E skill, "Hawk," sending a blue drone streaking across the enemy jungle and accurately locating Ning, who had just finished clearing the Rift Scuttler and was preparing to return to farm jungle camps.

"I'll go first! I'll go first!"

Li Yi used his E skill [Martial Arts] to rush towards Yasuo's back. Although Yasuo released a wind wall in time, it was obviously unable to stop the [Boot Supplement] thrown from behind.

"Rookie knows he'll die if Kled's Q triggers its second hit, so he chooses to Flash away... Hmm?"

Both commentators were taken aback.

"The Flash didn't break free from Kled's chains. Judging from the slow-motion replay, it seems that LeeE predicted the Flash first?"

Yasuo, pulled back by the second stage of the [Boot-Pulling Bracelet], can only passively absorb all the damage from Kled and Elise.

After taking the third hit of the turret damage, Skaarl the Cowardly Lizard ran into the bushes, and Kled also escaped the turret's aggro due to his brief untargetable state.

The spider finished off the enemy with a final Spider Form Q [Venomous Sting], then used her E skill [Spider Web] to ascend into the air and gracefully depart.

"What a spectacular tower dive!"

The cheers from the audience showed that this play by Kled the Spider was very smooth.

Taking advantage of the gold from the minion wave and assists, Li Yi returned to base and bought the crucial item "Tiamat".

After all, Kled and Shen are similar in that they are both strong in one-on-one duels and can provide long-range support, so they are in the same boat when it comes to the difficulty of clearing lanes.

After building Tiamat, Li Yi can quickly push the lane and break Yasuo's passive with splash damage.

The game has been going on for eight minutes.

Li Yi once again used the "screen switching" ability to observe the top lane and found that TheShy's Gnar had just shrunk and was in an awkward period where he couldn't build up rage with basic attacks.

So he immediately instructed Mouse, the Weapon Master: "Ah Guang, push the lane quickly, and remember to save your E skill."

Twenty seconds later.

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan looked at the pink dinosaur Nar, who was howling and dying under the tower, and felt that this scene was very familiar.

"This three-on-one situation...didn't I see it in the first round?"

Five minutes later.

The pink dinosaur, already 0-3, could only huddle under the second tower. Watching the minion wave being burned away by the first tower, and then looking at the broken Jax in front of him, TheShy felt his heart was bleeding.

Finally, in the 24-minute team fight at Baron Nashor.

TheShy's zero-rage Gnar inexplicably jumped into the crowd, stepping on his teammates' heads. Accompanied by the commentator's exclamation, "Shy, you can even jump like that!", IG's five players were wiped out, unfortunately stopping in the semifinals of the Demacia Cup.

Congratulations to EDG for defeating IG 3-1 and advancing to the finals to face their old rivals, RNG!

As soon as the host finished speaking, a huge cheer erupted at the Hunan International Convention and Exhibition Center.

Even the most die-hard EDG fans were not optimistic about EDG's performance in the Demacia Cup before the tournament.

After all, the factory manager has just returned to the team, and his performance is bound to fluctuate; Iboy is a well-known super rookie, but he still needs to adapt to the intensity of the competition; especially since the mid-lane core Scout has not yet returned to the team, and the person who replaced him is actually a streamer who teaches people how to get carried?

This is a team where veterans mentor newcomers and center players carry the rest.

If it weren't for Coach Nofe's blunder that resulted in a loss, how could they have achieved a six-game winning streak in the Demacia Cup knockout stage?

The chat was filled with rapidly scrolling comments in the official live stream room.

[LeeE is a strange player. He has a strong presence on the field, but his post-match stats are terrible.]

[I think it's alright, at least better than those who disappear on the court to maintain their KDA and then pretend to have tried their best in the post-game stats.]

[Hey, hey, hey, are those people still shamelessly praising TheShy in the second game?]

【抛开第二把的战绩不看，TheShy在输的三局里战绩分别是0-6，1-5，0-5。】

Sixteen points with one hand! Sixteen points with one hand!

I have a feeling that, given TheShy's style, this record is probably not his limit...

In the commentary booth, commentator Guan Zeyuan was wrapping up the comments: "We also have a post-match voice chat segment for this BO5 match."

"I believe EDG fans are already impatient; everyone wants to see who's in charge of these strange 3v1 and 4v2 ganks."

"I guess it's LeeE," Su Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"Oh, how could you possibly guess that?"

"Actually, you can see this by just looking at the players' camera feeds in the bottom left corner. Most of the time, it's just LeeE talking in the EDG team..."
