League: Educating LPL is my duty.

"This position looks familiar. In the game between EDG and RNG a few days ago, it seems that Letme was also forced into this position by C. Letme wanted to go back to lane, but C caught him at level two and got the first blood."

The doll led the audience through a recap of the previous episode's plot, and then they saw that after Zita A destroyed the barrel, he insisted on moving forward with the fire knife.

"Ah, is the captain really going to go back to lane head-on? He only has one barrel left, and the next one won't be off cooldown for a long time. Fiora is still ahead in the minion wave and will be level 2 soon. Won't he suffer a huge loss this way?"

Rita explained, "Maybe he's just not convinced, and he also thinks that with his Fire Blade, C might not dare to fight him head-on. But C's position is a bit tricky; if the captain tries to fight him head-on, he'll be exposed."

At this moment, Li Chen was at an angle to a large section of the wall above the red team, with only a very narrow space between them.

The newly revealed weakness in his stance is in the lower left corner. Although he didn't want to take a detour, he knew that trying to survive by squeezing through a narrow opening was useless and would only result in greater losses.

Thus, under the shocked gaze of all the audience, Zita made a choice that went against the wishes of his ancestors.

Fight to the bitter end!

Seeing the captain running straight towards him with his fire knife in hand, Li Chen instinctively thought that the jungler was coming and immediately became cautious.

Despite being cautious, Li Chen didn't indulge the captain. Given the current minion wave situation, if he retreated, things would become difficult to handle later.

Before the captain got close, Li Chen leaned up slightly to speed up his minion attack. Then, after the captain closed the distance, he started with a basic attack and used his Q skill to poke down and create openings.

He used his stance to unleash the first Fire Blade of the game, placed a barrel near his own ranged creeps, then drank the second Corruption Potion, preparing to fight Li Chen to the death using creep damage.

The idea behind this is very clear: to use three layers of corruption potion to reduce Li Chen's health, then go home and come out again.

At that time, the minions will most likely be blocking in front of his first tower. Then, control the minion wave and slowly whittle down Fiora with his Q skill. It's absolutely wonderful.

The barrels placed near the ranged soldiers in advance will be key to the retreat later.

The two players were walking and playing A as they ran towards the red team.

At this moment, a red team melee minion died, and Li Chen leveled up to level 2. Theoretically speaking, leveling up Li Chen's E skill is now the optimal option, as it would give him a chance to get a solo kill.

However, the Gragas hasn't shown up yet. Although it seems unlikely that he'll be in the top lane, Li Chen still has to be on guard.

As the two gradually entered the blast radius of the explosive barrel, Zita noticed that Fiora had leveled up to level two but hadn't used any skills, and subconsciously guessed that Fiora had leveled up her W skill.

This made Zitai realize that his previous plan had some oversights, so he had a flash of inspiration. He first made a normal A gesture towards the explosive barrel, and then pressed S in the middle of the process.

The intention of this stance was to bait out Fiora's W, otherwise, if the explosive barrel was blocked and Fiora wasn't slowed down, he would be slowed down by Fiora's W instead, and might lose his Flash.

But Li Chen didn't fall for that at all. He took advantage of the captain's sluggishness during the fake basic attack and moved forward to adjust his position.

Seeing that Li Chen hadn't pressed W, Zi Tai was a little puzzled, so he made a second fake A.

"Dude, do you think you're some kind of Barbarian King? Trying to play with my sword here?"

Li Chen was speechless at the sight. Zita's fake A move was a bit weak, and he pressed S too early. If a top professional player is in good form, they can tell the difference if they look closely.

Of course, while it's easy to see, it's another matter whether you can react in time.

However, Li Chen was clearly able to make that judgment with 100% certainty.

The captain's two sword strikes gave Li Chen time to adjust his position, allowing him to successfully exploit the opening in the upper left corner.

This time, Zita couldn't sit still anymore. He didn't stop with his third basic attack, which actually landed on the explosive barrel. At the same time, Li Chen also activated his W skill.

Now that Li Chen's Battle Fever is fully stacked and the Captain's health has dropped to the dangerous kill threshold, even if Gragas is nearby, as long as he dodges E-Flash, Li Chen can easily take on two opponents at once, so there's no need to keep saving W to save his life.

Zita dared not take the W slow, so he could only flash to the tower.

The captain's health was now less than 200. Li Chen didn't let him go. After W ended, he flashed to chase after him, started with a basic attack, then Q'd forward, and after taking the turret damage, he finished off the last enemy with a basic attack, securing the kill.

Fiora got First Blood!

"Ah, a solo kill! How could he die like that? What was Zz1tai doing? Fiora shouldn't have been able to kill him, at most she'd just lose her Flash, but he stayed by the barrels for so long and still didn't hit Fiora. This..."

Miller was at a loss for words. He didn't know how to explain this situation for Zz1tai. The part where he used the Razor Strike on the barrel was just too sweet.

Seeing Miller's hesitation, Wawa quickly took over the conversation: "Actually, I can understand. C God reacted too quickly. He saw through Zz1tai's thoughts. If it were someone else, they might have been tricked into using their W skill earlier."

"But this makes the top lane a bit more difficult. C is speeding up his wave clear, and Clearlove is farming the river crab. There might be a forced tower dive later. SofM has already gone to the bottom half of the map and can't get here in time."

Rita shifted her attention back to the game, and just by glancing at the factory manager's movements, she knew what was going to happen next.

Whose subordinate is this captain? I adore him!

[Zhu Kai must really love Zz1tai to be able to suppress Flandre.]

First-rate captains wield knives, second-rate captains wield barrels, and third-rate captains eat oranges—as for the manners...

[His posture is impressive; he's an epileptic!]

Are you guys trying to make me laugh so hard I'll inherit my Alipay account?

Don't laugh yet, there's more to come.

Both are professional players. Judging from Li Chen's wave clearing rhythm, Zz1tai knew that he was about to be tower-dived.

But he has to use this teleport, otherwise he won't be able to get this wave of minions, and he might as well just AFK.

However, while sending the teleport, Zz1tai tapped the mid-lane Taliyah's teleport and then gave another signal.

Planck is requesting assistance!

Planck is requesting assistance!

The gesture clearly indicates a desire for Taliyah to use Teleport for protection later.

This wave doesn't necessarily have to land, because Fiora is in bad shape, and only Sejuani can tank the tower. As long as the first wave of attack is scared off, EDG won't be able to dive him twice in a row.

"I can't help!"

Tank directly rejected the gesture in slightly broken Chinese, because he wasn't having an easy time either.

Scout played very aggressively this game, starting to push the lane right from the start. He's already used up his two health potions, and if he uses Teleport to protect the top lane, the mid lane will collapse in no time.
