League: Educating LPL is my duty.

Backstage in the lounge, the EDG team watched the first match together, but the course of the game left many people somewhat confused.

Because 30 minutes ago, SKT did not have the overwhelming advantage over G2 that everyone expected; in fact, SKT was completely behind in terms of kills.

The two sides traded blows in the early to mid-game, and this stalemate lasted until the 33rd minute before a change occurred.

With SKT achieving a 4-for-0 exchange in a Baron fight and then securing Baron, the balance of the game completely shifted. SKT quickly widened the gold gap between the two sides, leaving G2 with almost no chance to fight back.

As G2's base crystal shattered, Abu withdrew his gaze and said, "SKT is still SKT. They were down 0 to 4 in kills early on, yet they still managed to lead G2 by 2,000 gold. That's truly terrifying."

"Perhaps, but it's not that scary. G2 has been unable to gain an advantage because they lack a breakthrough point and cannot break through SKT's defense, thus falling into SKT's operational rhythm."

Li Chen remained relaxed, and his tone was calm. This unparalleled confidence effectively soothed the emotions of the others.

After all, even the top laners aren't panicking, so why should they? G2 couldn't break through SKT's defense because they didn't have a god-like top laner.

And they really have C-God on their team. If SKT wants to operate effectively, the first thing they need to consider is how to stabilize the top lane in the early game and how to deal with the unstoppable split push in the mid-game.

After a short break, the second match began.

In the LPL broadcast studio, the commentators Remember, Rita, and Zhihuan all looked quite relaxed today.

After receiving the camera's alert, he spoke first, saying, "Okay, next up is the second match of the day, which is also the first match of our LPL region's EDG team in the MSI group stage. Their opponent is the Flash Wolves team from the LMS region."

Zhihuan picked up the thread and said, "The Flash Wolves' roster this year is still not to be underestimated, but I think that based on EDG's performance since the start of the Spring Split, they have a pretty good chance of winning against the Flash Wolves."

Rita nodded and said, "That's right. After all, EDG has proven their strength to us throughout the Spring Split, especially top laner C. I think many people are looking forward to his performance in his first international match."

"The players from both sides have taken the stage, and our EDG team has received a lot of applause from the audience. C God is the first one, and he looks very relaxed. It seems that he is very confident in this match." Remember said with a smile, obviously knowing who to praise.

Whether we're weak in international battles or not will be revealed this time.

To be honest, if C plays normally, the opponent is no match for him. The problem is that he gets nervous in big matches.

[Laughs, is there even such a thing as nervousness when playing C?]

Don't worry, he's the kind of guy who doesn't care about saving face, he won't be nervous. I've already gone all in on EDG.

[Same here. Half of the money I earn goes to foot massages, and the other half goes to C to buy gifts.]

With both players having finished setting up their equipment, the game officially entered the character selection phase.

In this match, EDG was on the blue side and had the first pick. Nofe's target was also very clear: the Flash Wolves' bot lane.

"The enemy AD is also a rookie. He likes to pick Zyra support to push lanes in the play-in stage. Let's ban Zyra first to stabilize our bot lane priority. If the enemy doesn't ban top lane, then we'll ban mid lane champions later, and Scout will pick Taliyah to roam."

Seeing that EDG had banned Zyra first, Flash Wolves coach Steak said, "Let's ban support too, and ban Karma."

"Shouldn't we target EDG's top laner? I heard he's doing really well in the league," Karsa said hesitantly.

"It's okay, Mimi Egg won't be any worse than him, right? LPL top laner stats don't mean anything. What's the use of that guy A Guang who can only play Maokai?" Steak patted his top laner on the shoulder.

Mimi Egg nodded and said, "That's right, get Rumble for me. He can't possibly gain an advantage in the top lane."

After seeing that Flash Wolves were indeed not targeting the top lane, Nofe immediately banned LeBlanc and Syndra as planned, further setting the stage for Taliyah's lane priority in the mid lane.

Flash Wolves, on the other hand, took turns banning Lulu and Graves, showing almost no targeted draft strategy.

"Holy crap, are Flash Wolves really that brave? They actually let C-God Jayce out. What were they thinking?" Meiko was shocked.

"C, want to play a game?" nofe asked.

"What else is there to say? If the other side dares to let us have it, then let's pick it. Let's make the first game a great one." Li Chen smiled and slowly moved the mouse over the Jayce icon.

"This... C's Jayce was released in the first game of MSI. This is a champion that no team in our region dared to give to C throughout the entire Spring Split. Are Flash Wolves so confident that they can handle it?" Remember was completely dumbfounded.

Zhihuan said, "In that case, should EDG pick Jayce as their first pick? After all, this is C's signature move, known as the number one Jayce player on both servers. Oh, his icon is showing, he locks it in instantly without any hesitation. If he dares to let it go, he dares to pick it."

Rita said with a smile, "This should be the first time we've seen C-God's Jayce on the field. I wonder what kind of effect he'll have."

Meanwhile, the LPL channel was in an uproar.

Holy crap, all I can say is that Flash Wolves are ruthless. They'll unleash anything. I don't know how they're going to win.

[They really don't do any research at all. They don't target the top lane, they don't target the AD carry, they just pick two supports and a jungler, it's ridiculous.]

[This game is not worth watching, there's no point in watching it.]

[Don't shout too early, C's fans. They'll stop talking once Jayce gets crushed.]

[Haha, another Royal Never Give Up (RNG) fanboy. I'll say it again: if C is so bad at playing, why don't you dare let your favorite team play him?]

"Jayce, Mimi Egg, you need to pay more attention. This guy on the other side is playing Jayce really well," Karsa reminded him again.

Mimi Egg remained fearless, confidently declaring, "Coach, pick Rumble for me. I want him to know that this isn't their LPL region, and I'm not one of those incompetent top laners. I'm going to crush him."

Steak chose to blindly trust him, nodding and saying, "Okay, let's go for Rumble. Karsa, you take Lee Sin and try to gank the top lane. If Jayce can't make an impact in the early game, he'll be useless in the mid and late game."

Kasa didn't know where the two got their inexplicable confidence from, but since things had come to this point, he could only choose to follow the team's tactics.
