[Esports] Team Leader Xie, your mid laner is causing trouble again.

[It got my blood pumping! I wish I could immediately buy a console, download the game, and become a top player.]

What kind of game was this?

No wonder poets want to write poetry when they're demoted; seeing so many people being demoted on stage makes me want to write poetry too.

[Get lost, you upstairs idiot! Wasn't your beating high enough?]

[Damn it, the team that got eliminated could study the details of this game for ten days and ten nights.]

You can argue all you want, but could you please not hurt me, whose favorite team has already been eliminated...?

The comments section was a chaotic mess, with UUC fans and RAK fans each sticking to their own arguments, creating a huge uproar on the public screen.

The two teams traded blows, with the score remaining neck and neck like a tug-of-war, neither able to gain the lead for more than a game.

After two sets, the score reached a crucial 2-2.

Four games of the BO5 have been played, and all the hero icons used have been turned off, visibly reducing the number of team compositions available.

The commentator took a deep breath, his voice brimming with barely concealed excitement:

"The first BO5 of the season, I wonder if these two teams will bring us any surprises?"

Pepsi immediately chimed in: "What a thrilling match! We got to see a full BO5 on opening day! Who will emerge victorious? Let's wait and see!"

In the fifth game's draft phase, UUC surprisingly picked the hero Huanyin for Ice, contrary to their usual practice.

Huan Yin is an atypical utility mage, quite conventional.

It mainly relies on providing teammates with movement speed buffs and silence effects, with little control effect and its own output capability is not outstanding.

On RAK's side, Liang Shoucheng pondered for a moment in his headset, glanced at the opposing lineup, and then spoke:

"Lychee, this round is Nightfall?"

Against this opponent's defensive-oriented system, using Ye Ling to initiate attacks is entirely feasible.

Moreover, he always remembered that Li Zhi liked mage assassins, and recently the training of utility mages had been very effective, so he took the initiative to ask about it when considering the lineup.

There was silence in the headphones.

Liang Shoucheng turned his head in surprise and looked at Li Zhi, who was sitting in the middle of the line.

Li Zhizheng turned his head slightly, his gaze fixed on the audience seats, lost in thought.

That sea of ​​pink light boards stood out starkly against the dimly lit venue.

The light boards flashed slogans like "Go RAK!" and "RAK will win!" forming a continuous display.

It embodies the fans' most longed-for and simplest wishes.

They hope RAK wins.

Li Zhi withdrew her gaze, and scenes from before the match flooded her mind.

He was silent for a few seconds before finally speaking: "No need, coach, let's use the same lineup for the practice match."

Not to mention Liang Shouchang, even someone as oblivious as Jiang Xingle sensed something was wrong, and uttered a soft "Hmm?"

"Could it be that Lychee fell in love with the mage she spent so much time with? Love born from hatred, and her nemesis ultimately becoming her wife?"

Before he could finish speaking, Liang Shoucheng smacked him on the head with his backhand.

Liang Shoucheng ignored Jiang Xingle and confirmed again: "Are you sure? Ye Ling can also play this round."

Li Zhi pursed her lips and said without hesitation, "I'm sure. Let's play it safe."

The little demon, who always loved to challenge the limits, suddenly uttered such a pure sentence, which startled Liang Shoucheng so much that he was stunned for two seconds.

Xie Jichuan stared intently in Li Zhi's direction for a while, then looked away.

"Listen to him, continue with the BP process."

So in this game, RAK picked a versatile team composition for team fights.

Li Zhi locked down Gu Chen, relying on blinding and vision control from her ultimate to control the tempo.

Gu Chen's single-target burst damage isn't high, but when combined with his teammates' initiation skills, he can often create unexpected team fight effects.

With proper vision and precise timing, this lineup has a very high potential in team fights.

RAK started the game with a steady and methodical pace.

Although Gu Chen of Li Zhi did not suppress Ice's Huan Yin in the early laning phase, he kept a close margin in last hits and gold, and did not fall behind.

Xie Jichuan's jungle invasion, combined with Jiang Xingle's vision control, prevented UUC from developing their early game rhythm, and the two sides maintained a delicate balance until the ten-minute mark.

Jiang Xingle was the type to liven things up in the game microphone, saying things like, "If this game drags on to the late game, it's a sure win, you get the feeling?"

Ling Wang disagreed: "Don't open the champagne halfway through, Star, come and scout out our view."

Jiang Xingle honestly replied, "Oh, I'm coming."

In this game, he played a crowd control hero with a health bar as thick as a barcode, making him perfect for squeezing vision in the river bushes.

He casually crouched into the bushes, just in time to catch a glimpse of Ice's Phantom Sound moving towards the bottom lane, its positioning subtly probing.

Jiang Xingle's eyes lit up, and his finger was already on the button to charge up his ultimate move:

"Phantom Sound is here, let's ambush her! My ultimate skill is fully charged!"

He jumped out the instant he caught Huanyin probing the bush, unleashing his ultimate crowd control skill, which slammed into the ground, the ripples of which were about to knock Huanyin over.

Ling Wang reacted extremely quickly and immediately followed up with his own attack.

The moment he used his movement skill, before he even landed, a silent aura descended from the sky, precisely landing at his feet and locking all his skills in gray.

Jiang Xingle cursed in frustration, "Damn it! Didn't Ice just use his ultimate move? Why is he still silent?"

Xie Jichuan's voice came through the microphone: "He bought cooldown reduction equipment, so don't initiate team fights when Huanyin is around."

He maneuvered the jungler to flank from the side, and timely used a boomerang to slow down the pursuing UUC mid and jungle, forcing them back a few steps and barely managing to save the marksman and support.

Jiang Xingle gritted his teeth and clicked his tongue, then obediently retreated under the tower to replenish his health and mana.

Although he was still cursing, his actions had become noticeably more cautious.

The two sides exchanged skills back and forth, giving each other a massage, without any real loss.

Until the first resource team fight, Li Zhi's ultimate skill was precisely released at the entrance of the dragon pit, blinding and covering the vision of UUC's jungler and marksman.

Xie Jichuan decisively entered the fray and secured the first turret, allowing RAK to switch lanes and take down the bottom lane tower, gradually widening their economic lead.

The pace of progress is very solid.

Li Zhi's vision is very deep, with RAK's real and fake wards covering every bush and every section of the river.

UUC was in RAK's sights with almost every move he made, and was forced to constantly give up resources.

This way, Jiang Xingle doesn't have to squeeze into any more space, and can enjoy a more relaxed and comfortable life.

"Lychee's Ancient Dust should be at a Chinese server level by now, let's go back and give him a national title too."

Li Zhi didn't respond: "Find Chi Lie's location, don't get ambushed."

Jiang Xingle honestly replied, "Oh, okay, I'll go find it."

Around twenty minutes later, RAK had destroyed all the outer towers on all three lanes of UUC, and the minion wave surged onto the high ground.

RAK fans at the scene had already started cheering in advance, and screams could be heard continuously.

The battle had been going on for too long. RAK's five players gathered at the Baron pit, preparing to use Baron to force UUC out to engage in a team fight.

Li Zhi had already set up a vision circle near the dragon pit, and Gu Chen's ultimate skill was ready to be used. He was just waiting for UUC to show his face so he could blind him and initiate a team fight.

RAK's five players positioned themselves at the Dragon Pit, and Xie Jichuan's voice sharpened in the game microphone:

"Chi Lie isn't visible; keep an eye on his position."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Chi Lie's Shadow Blade suddenly cut in from a blind spot in RAK's own jungle.

A gap that was overlooked because Kurichi's field of vision was interrupted for less than three seconds.

Almost at the same moment, Ice's Phantom Sound flashed up from the front, and the skill landed precisely at Li Zhi's feet.

Huan Yin's silence was less than half a second faster than Gu Chen's ultimate move.

Li Zhi's finger was on the R key, and the skill icon on the screen lit up. But the moment he pressed it, a gray silence mark covered his skill bar, and he couldn't cast Blind.

Without that blinding area, RAK's formation was like it had been stripped of all its disguise and exposed to UUC's vision.

Shadow Blade cuts straight at Ling Wang, unleashing a burst of damage that instantly kills the squishy marksman in less than two seconds.

With the downfall of the marksman, RAK's damage output chain completely collapsed.

Cheng Yi tried to push forward to buy time, but UUC's combo had already seamlessly followed.

369 steadily dealt damage from the rear, whittling down the remaining RAK members' health bars one arrow at a time.

Xie Jichuan risked his life to replace Chi Lie, but it was to no avail.

The team fight saw UUC retreat all the way from the Baron pit to the front of the high ground tower. Like a wild beast that has finally broken free of its chains, they pushed back with unstoppable force.

The spawned minion wave happened to arrive at the very center of the map, and with a full fifty seconds of death time in the late game, UUC had enough time to push the crystal with the minion wave.

A misjudgment on the spot, a team fight, a sudden and fatal defeat.

The commentator's excited voice echoed throughout the venue:

"Congratulations to UUC for winning the first major match of the playoffs 3-2! They pulled off a stunning comeback in the deciding game!"
