League: Educating LPL is my duty.
Chapter 26 Dare to Release, Dare to Choose
"EDG pushed to VG's bottom lane inhibitor, but VG defended very firmly. Should EDG go back and regroup first, then force a team fight through Baron?"
Seeing that EDG seemed to be retreating, Guan Zeyuan thought they wanted to play it safe and said, "Looks like they're going to take Baron... Wait, Lucian used his E to go in and unleashed a combo on Ryze. Ouch, that hurts! Ryze's health instantly dropped below half."
Ryze countered with a CC on Lucian, who immediately used Quicksilver Sash to break free. Shen E-flashed in to follow up with another CC, but Lucian reacted quickly, using his Flash to enter the high ground and unleash his ultimate from the side. The damage was too high; VG couldn't withstand it. Nami's ultimate interrupted the attack, but Kha'Zix and Kog'Maw were both left with low health.
Let's go!
The rest of EDG reacted and rushed forward. Orianna flashed over the wall to apply her E skill to Lucian, granting him both armor and magic resistance. Then, she used WQR to unleash her ultimate, blocking VG from chasing Lucian.
Spider uses E skill to flash and stun Shen, Alistar uses his ultimate to charge into the crowd, and Ashe uses her ultimate at the same time to help Lucian control Kha'Zix.
The economic dominance made this team fight difficult to win, and VG used all their control skills on Li Chen at the beginning, but Li Chen managed to dodge a lot of the skills, deal damage, and survive.
The attempt to kill Lucian failed, and the outcome of this team fight was already predetermined.
With Li Chen securing a triple kill, EDG achieved a clean 5-0 exchange, effectively ending the game.
"At 19 minutes and 57 seconds, EDG refused to work overtime and ended the game with a wonderful team fight. Let's congratulate EDG on tying the score at 1-1."
Guan Zeyuan took a breath to recover his lung capacity, and then said, "In this game, EDG did not give VG any chance from beginning to end. In particular, the top laner god_C, after the team gave him valuable wards in the early game, also played his part and tore apart VG's defense from the top lane."
All I can say is that his reputation is well-deserved. God_C is adored by so many fans and has produced so many amazing highlights in ranked games. His individual skills are truly outstanding, and even in professional matches, he is equally determined not to be ordinary.
Rita nodded and said, "That's right, Lucian really performed very well in this game. God_C also proved himself with a score of 11-0-5. He lived up to the trust of his teammates and the expectations of his fans."
Guan Zeyuan suddenly laughed and said, "Actually, I'm very curious about Loong's reaction when he goes back to review the game and finds two wards in the top lane. Oh, and our MVP has also emerged, it's god_C's Lucian."
On the big screen, Li Chen's official portrait appeared. He stood alone, turned his head slightly to look at everyone, and his eyes were arrogant and condescending.
"My goodness, 44% damage percentage, that's amazing!"
"The matchup gap was pure matchup disadvantage in this game."
"How could RNG let this top laner go?"
"Alright, enough with the AD top laner thing. It's just a tactic, what's the point?"
"AD top lane doesn't prove anything; it just proves that he really has no other champions he can play."
"Haha, what can he use next game if Lucian is gone?"
"My brother is so handsome! I really want him to thoroughly investigate my academic background."
Meanwhile, the EDG team returned to the rest room. Abu, all smiles, handed them a cup of hot water and then massaged Li Chen's shoulders: "Chen, have some tea. You played well this game, your performance was as stable as ever."
His biggest worry was that Li Chen would perform very well in training matches, but become too nervous in official matches and fail to perform to his full potential.
But after this match, the problem was gone. Li Chen's performance was incredibly consistent, with no mistakes whatsoever. He truly lived up to the nickname "Cold-Blooded Machine" that Nofe gave him.
Li Chen took a sip of water and said, "If they don't ban Lucian next game, then let's keep using him. It's the same old strategy: dominate the top lane."
Nofe nodded and said, "No problem. Next game, we can have Clearlove play a tank jungler to act as your meat shield, which will give you more room to maneuver."
Abu quickly said, "But don't go too far next time. Just win. Take down at least one Baron. We'll see each other all the time, so don't go too far."
Li Chen remained noncommittal. In his view, LPL needed to teach them a lesson, to wake them up and make them give up the idea of slowly cocooning on the ground.
Unlike the relaxed atmosphere in EDG's lounge, VG's side was also deeply silent.
Their victory in the first match initially led them to believe that they would be able to learn from IM's incredible comeback and upset EDG to take the win.
However, in the second game, god丶C came on and shattered their dreams with a score of 17-1.
Especially Loong, when he saw his own level 1 and 2 gameplay in the top lane, he felt like he was about to explode.
He could already imagine that even ten years from now, videos of his actions would still be circulating online.
The phrase "a flying corpse squatting above his eyes" will accompany him throughout his entire career.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, the VG coach tried his best to boost everyone's morale, but the effect was not very obvious.
Finally, VG's manager lost his temper: "What are you doing? Is the match over yet? It's only 1-1. Take down his Lucian in the next game. What else can he bring out? Cheer up! The first game has already proven that you are no worse than them."
As the third match began, players from both teams entered the arena. Li Chen walked at the front, giving the VG team a friendly smile, looking quite like a sunny and cheerful young man.
"Okay, let's get back to the game. In the third game, the losing side chooses sides, and VG is on the blue side." Guan Zeyuan started.
Rita followed up, saying, "VG's coach and players must have talked a lot just now. I wonder if they'll be able to take down Lucian, who god_C played really well in the last game."
Guan Zeyuan speculated: "I think if VG can't find a way to deal with it, it would be better to ban it. After all, everyone has seen that god_C's Lucian proficiency is very high, and he's in hot form, so he really deserves respect."
"OK, VG still chose to ban Jayce and Fiora first, and EDG responded with Ryze, who performed very well in the first game, and then banned Lee Sin."
After further consideration, VG decided to ban Lucian as their final pick, as they couldn't think of a better solution.
Seeing that Riven was available, nofe pondered for a moment and said, "VG isn't banning Riven, they probably want you to pick her, then counter with Poppy. We'll ban Poppy, then you can pick Riven, how about that?"
"Can!"
Li Chen nodded slightly. He didn't want to play Riven against Poppy either, as it would be too difficult. Although his skills wouldn't put him at a disadvantage, it would be hard for him to gain a significant advantage.
When VG's coach saw that EDG had picked Poppy as their last move, his face immediately darkened.
"Loong, the opponent has seen through our intentions. You should continue using Shen. This game will revolve around the bottom lane."
"Okay!" Loong knew that the BP plan had failed, so he decisively took Shen first.
"We see that VG still banned Lucian, but this leaves Riven, which god_C often uses in ranked games, out. Will he pick her? After all, EDG has already banned Poppy," Guan Zeyuan said.
The next second, Li Chen showed him the answer with his actions.
Riven's image appears on the screen, followed by her signature lines.
The day the broken sword is reforged will be the day the knight returns!
Oh!
The audience gasped in surprise, after all, this was Riven, a champion almost on par with Yasuo in the eyes of players.
"It seems that God_C is very confident in his signature hero. He dares to pick the hero if you dare to let him pass, and he is determined to outmaneuver you. The audience who watched the game today definitely got their money's worth."
The two teams then took turns picking their champions. EDG picked Riven for top lane, Ashe for AD carry, and Alistar for support, while VG locked in Shen for top lane, Azir for mid lane, and Caitlyn for AD carry.
After that, both sides banned each other's junglers, with both Kha'Zix and Elise being banned.
