League: Educating LPL is my duty.

I remember seeing Lucian locked in, and I was a little confused. I said, "Taliyah, EDG picked Taliyah as their last pick. This champion can't be played in the top lane, right? So the top lane can only be Lucian. EDG fooled everyone."

Miller was surprised but also wanted to laugh: "Hey, I wonder if anyone noticed Scout's expression just now. It seemed like even he didn't know that SSG picked Syndra on the third floor, and everyone thought EDG was going to play Lucian mid, including Scout himself."

Rita said, "The swaps are being made. As expected, Taliyah moved to the mid lane and Lucian went to the top lane. This makes EDG's lineup clearer. They will still focus on the top lane to gain an advantage, while the mid lane will provide support for the top and bottom lanes."

[Scout: Is Lucian okay? C: Yes, I'll use him!]

[Hilarious! C's appearance even fooled his teammates.]

[I haven't played Lucian in a long time, but I felt a urge to play him again today.]

To be honest, Gnar seems... really unable to beat Lucian.

[Can't match their burst damage, can't match their range with basic attacks, can't match their skill...]

Cuvee was also completely bewildered: "Wait, is this how you play the game? How did Lucian end up in the top lane?"

Edgar was in a hurry to shake hands, and before leaving, he patted Cuvee on the shoulder and said, "Stay calm, you must stay calm on the road."

On the other side of the EDG player bench, Scout was adjusting runes and talents with a look of utter disbelief.

Lucian is gone as promised, so happy! *smack*

Gone!

Li Chen's runes and masteries were already configured. In this game, he directly abandoned Teleport and took Ignite and Flash, aiming for a fast push.

With SSG's lineup, they don't even have a single reliable hard crowd control ability, so they can easily dominate this game.

Entering the loading screen:

SSG Blue Team:

Top lane - Gnar

Jungler - Prince

Mid Lane - Syndra

ad——ice

Auxiliary - Purple Garlic

EDG Red Team:

Top Lane - Lucian

Jungler - Gragas

Mid laner - Rock Bird

ad——Velus

Support - Karma

Upon entering the game, all players on both sides enter the river to defend.

SSG retreated immediately upon seeing EDG's players. They were still discussing how to deal with a Lucian who used Flash and Ignite, and didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

This was exactly what EDG wanted. After Scout showed up near the mid lane, he immediately turned and headed to the top lane. His task was to place a ward on the blue side's bush in the top lane.

SSG was completely unaware of this, because all five members of EDG had already appeared in their field of vision, and no one expected Scout to place a ward in the top lane at this time.

With the initial standoff over, both sides started to go online. Li Chen didn't immediately pressure Gnar, but instead followed the minion wave to his lane.

Cuvee was prepared to be stuck, but when she saw Li Chen walk over from the online platform, she couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"He didn't cross the line with such a good opportunity; this guy isn't as good as he claims!"

With that thought in mind, Cuvee unconsciously walked towards the blue team's bush, since bushes are always the best shelter for the weaker side.

Li Chen stood motionless beside the melee soldier, quietly watching Nar wriggle around in the grass.

Li Chen only began to approach the bushes where Gnar was after the melee soldier's health had been reduced to nearly half.

Perhaps feeling he had a vision advantage, Cuvee didn't think much of it and threw out a Q as Li Chen approached the bush.

But at that moment, Lucian suddenly made a right-angle turn, narrowly missing Gnar's boomerang.

Since it missed its target, the boomerang continued flying forward, grazing two melee minions and giving Gnar a bit of rage.

"Bro, the game's over!"

Li Chen grinned and turned to walk into Zhongcao.

He had Scout come over to place a ward so that he could bait out the boomerang and dodge it with 100% certainty.

The minion wave situation is basically set now. All he has to do is wait for three melee minions to die, and then he can drive Gnar out of the experience zone.

Before the prince arrived, Gnar could only gain experience from these three melee minions; the other minions had nothing to do with the enemy.

At this point, Cuvee was still unaware of the seriousness of the situation and was still waiting in the bushes for Li Chen to clear the lane.

Next, because Gnar hit the red minion, the red melee minion was the first to fall, and the blue melee minion advanced.

Li Chenka managed to eliminate one minion at the last second. The remaining two melee minions, having more health, successfully moved in front of the red team's ranged unit and began attacking. Subsequently, the blue team's ranged unit also took its position and fired.

"Okay, you should get out of here too!"

Once the minion wave was cleared, Li Chen immediately pushed forward, stepped out of the bush, dodged the boomerang, stood outside the bush and raised his hand to Q Gnar inside, then used his passive to chase forward.

"Damn it, there are eyes in this grass!"

Cuvee belatedly realized that there was a ward in the grass, so she quickly retreated.

A level 1 Gnar can't possibly go toe-to-toe with Lucian; they're simply not on the same level. Besides, Li Chen has some fire on him, so if he loses too much health, he could be in the kill zone at any moment.

Once Gnar left the bush, the blue team lost sight of Li Chen in the bush. Li Chen took this opportunity to dodge the second wave of minions. Only when the minions were spaced out did Li Chen stand at the maximum distance and auto-attack twice.

After taking a full QAA combo from Lucian, Gnar lost a quarter of his health. But that wasn't the worst part. Now Lucian is blocking him from the minion wave, preventing him from farming minions and effectively ending his game prematurely.

Seeing the advancing minion wave, Cuvee was initially unconvinced and wanted to find an angle to gain some experience, but Li Chen's actions left him speechless.

At the LCK commentary booth, the commentator, Roaring Emperor, exclaimed while looking at the top lane camera: "Damn, God_C is still the same old God. He'd rather miss out on some minion gold himself than let Cuvee get any experience. Top lane is so tough!"

"Aigoo, Lucian is about to level up to level 2, and Cuvee is still pushing forward. No! Let's wait for Ambition to come and help clear the wave. Don't try to trade blows with Lucian; we can't win that way."

Cuvee is stubborn; perhaps due to preconceived notions, he felt that Li Chen was no better than him, and even though he knew Lucian was about to level up to level two, he still went to try and gain experience.

Li Chen watched as Nar crossed the safety line, a slight smile playing on his lips: "You're pretty brave, bro!"
