League: Educating LPL is my duty.

Li Chen agreed with the factory manager's opinion.

Although League of Legends is a game that values ​​skill—you either win or you lose—there are still ways to fight to the death.

Snake team first picks Zac, then Twisted Fate; the combination of these two heroes is quite formidable when ganking.

After a moment's thought, Li Chen said, "Let's use Syndra and dominate the lane."

Scout locked Syndra's icon just as the champion selection time was about to end.

Nofe, standing behind him, said, "They haven't picked their top laner and AD carry yet. I feel like they'll pick a champion with hard crowd control in the top lane, like Maokai, Nautilus, or Renekton. C-God, do you think we should ban them early?"

"No need, let's target AD carries. Ashe and Caitlyn can be banned, it's fine to let them continue using Tristana."

Li Chen didn't care what the opponent used. Although Zac and Twisted Fate's long-range support was annoying, he wasn't a delicate person. He had plenty of strength and methods.

The second round of eliminations proceeded even faster. Nofe followed Li Chen's instructions and carried away the female police officer and Ashe one after another, while the Snake team banned Camille and Riven, two top lane killing gods.

Then it was EDG's turn to pick first. Clearlove, perhaps emboldened by his Sejuani sniping in the previous game, surprisingly didn't pick Gragas, but instead said, "I'll play Sejuani this game, it's easier for me."

Li Chen seized the opportunity to launch an attack: "I often tell others that the factory's Sejuani is still trustworthy. Regardless of whether you win the team fight or not, Sejuani will run away on her own..."

"You little brat, you can't stand not ripping me off for a day, can you?" The factory manager clenched his fist, feeling an urge to become a scumbag.

Li Chen smiled, revealing two rows of big teeth: "You should thank me for constantly reminding you not to make mistakes."

The factory manager remained silent with a dark expression. He was very unhappy but didn't know how to refute the statement.

Snake's subsequent hero selection was also quick, after all, their lineup had no other options. With Renekton going for the top lane, the AD carry had to build a strong carry to support the late-game team fights.

The small cannon naturally became the best choice.

"With Renekton, Zac, and Twisted Fate, this lineup is very strong in level 6 fighting and can provide quick support, especially in small-scale team fights." Clearlove frowned slightly, feeling that there seemed to be a little pressure in the top jungle.

"Snake Team's lineup is very tricky. Renekton can provide strong crowd control, and Zac and Twisted Fate can quickly position themselves from a distance, making it difficult to create opportunities for kiting. It feels like apart from Fiora and Camille, there aren't many particularly good heroes to deal with it, but both of those heroes have been countered."

Miller, looking at it from EDG's perspective, also felt that Snake's top lane lineup was disgusting, especially for the top lane. Although it might not be easy to win in the late game, the early game skirmishes would definitely be guaranteed.

Wawa pondered, "I feel like Captain is a good pick, since he has a crowd control immunity, or maybe... Kennen? EDG picked Kennen? This is the first time C-God has used Kennen in a match, I've never seen him before."

Miller immediately changed his tune and started praising Kennen: "Kennen is a really good champion to pick. He can split push and team fight, and he's also quite mobile. Plus, he's a long-range champion against a short-range one, which will be a test for Zz1tai."

Rita listened for a while, feeling that the other person hadn't gotten to the point, so she added, "The most crucial point is that Kennen can also build physical attack items, and the damage is quite considerable."

[This game's Kennen build prioritizes offensive items; if his first item isn't Blade of the Ruined King, I'll take it!]

[Kennen vs. Renekton, it's hard to say who's stronger in the laning phase between these two champions, right? I think Renekton has a pretty good matchup.]

Sometimes in this game, it's not just about the strength of the hero, but also the strength of the summoner ID (lol).

[C: Ready to AFK?]

On the Snake team's bench, when they saw Li Chen pick Kennen, Zita's expression could almost be described as constipated; he didn't even dare to think about how he was supposed to play top lane.

Zhu Kai's expression was also not very good at this moment. He had thought of many heroes, and even considered Cassiopeia, but he never expected Li Chen to use Kennen.

"Don't worry, the richest man will gank top when he reaches level three, and the mid laner will come to help you when he reaches level six. Once you get through the first three levels, things will be much easier for you."

After offering a few words of comfort, Zhu Kai hurriedly went to the center of the stage to shake hands, leaving only Ziwei sitting there awaiting judgment.

Perhaps because of Rita's reminder, the director revealed Li Chen's rune talents as soon as the game started.

As expected, Li Chen used AD talents and runes in this game, increasing attack power and attack speed, and also started with Cull.

Snake Esports had no intention of invading this game, and neither did EDG.

Furthermore, Li Chen was worried that the Snake team might pull some tricks, such as having a few people ambush him in the top lane bush at the start of the game. So after completing his equipment, he controlled Kennen to go to the lane first to steal the bush, without even going to the river.

The pig under the factory manager's crotch automatically navigated to the bottom half of the map, and still a little uneasy, asked, "Are you sure I should gank bot lane at the start? If I show myself, a level 3 Zac will gank you, and you might not get any minions for a minute."

Compared to ganking bot lane at level two, Clearlove now prefers to gank top lane aggressively, as he believes counter-ganking top lane is more cost-effective.

Li Chen raised an eyebrow: "Factory Boy, am I being too mild-mannered, or have you just entered your rebellious phase? Now you even dare to question your father's orders?"

Factory manager: ...

Li Chen was crouching in the grass in front of the blue team's tower at level one, while Zita also understood his role and was not in a hurry to go online at level one, but just watched the two sides' minions clash.

"I'm not going to take any minions today. I won't give you any chances until the richest man arrives. I'll only take experience points, not minions. If you're so capable, try controlling the Void and pushing back the lane."

In the Snake team's in-game voice chat, Crystal listened to Zz1tai's mutterings and couldn't help but praise him, saying, "Great job, Zz1tai, very energetic, that's how you should play."

Li Chen couldn't hear Zi Tai's words. If he could, he would definitely tell him that it was possible for Void to control a wave of pushback, but it would require a good understanding and control of the minion wave.

He will then demonstrate how to do it.

After confirming that Zizhi really didn't intend to farm gold, Li Chen retreated to the middle bush and began calculating the minions' health.

Then, at the perfect moment, he auto-attacked a low-health melee minion, and used his Q skill to finish off another minion. As for the third melee minion, he let the other minions finish it off.

At this moment, the top lane appears to be in the red team's favor, with three melee minions with only a sliver of health remaining leading three ranged minions towards the blue team's ranged minions.

But Li Chen knew that the turning point was here: the push lane on the top lane had been completed.

(This is no exaggeration; you can try it for yourself!)
