League: Educating LPL is my duty.

The next day, before EDG started selecting heroes for their match, Li Chen turned off the Happy Landlords game that had been reset and opened the League of Legends live stream.

"Alright, entertainment time is over. Let's watch today's match. Betting odds are still in place, so please bet responsibly!"

Li Chen skillfully initiated a "pig butchering scam," something he generally didn't like, but his viewers couldn't resist trying it out.

[The charity gambling king event has ended. Now, a quick interlude: League of Legends GG!]

[Brothers, full slack on the left, may you be happy and fulfilled.]

[Let's play some football! Who do you think will win today?]

[You've gone astray, spending all your time playing games like tournaments and Dou Dizhu (a card game) to kill time.]

Today, I believe OMG will upset EDG.

Five minutes later, the pig butchering scam was shut down, and the game officially began.

After reviewing the lineups of both sides, Li Chen commented, "Both teams seem to have a chance in this game, but OMG has a slightly better chance. EDG's lineup is more late-game oriented, with Caitlyn and Corki dealing high damage in the late game. However, OMG might not give EDG the chance to fight in the late game."

Although some people are spreading rumors that Li Chen is badmouthing EDG because he can't play.

But Li Chen didn't care, because what the other person said was the truth.

Moreover, he didn't have a high opinion of EDG's lineup in this game. Their development was too slow. OMG clearly had the advantage in the early and mid-game, and they also had a Kog'Maw to protect them in the late game. No matter how you look at it, they were more well-rounded.

Moreover, trying to quickly push down Sima Laozei's first tower with the female police officer is a very challenging task.

As time went by, the game's development proceeded almost exactly as Li Chen had predicted.

OMG's jungler World6 launched counter-jungling attacks on the top and mid lanes, establishing an early advantage.

iboy failed to push down the bottom lane tower in time, which led to a team fight breaking out in the bottom lane at the ten-minute mark.

Xiyang's crocodile got a kill early on, making him almost invincible at that point. After teleporting and activating his ultimate, he chased down three EDG junglers.

In the end, OMG won the team fight decisively, achieving a 3-for-0 exchange and taking down the bottom lane tower first.

After that, OMG didn't give EDG a chance to breathe, taking advantage of the female police officer's weak period to launch an offensive, leaving EDG somewhat exhausted from defending.

When the game reached the 37-minute mark, OMG's advantage had expanded to 7,000, and they began to pressure the dragon.

EDG's lineup lacked initiative and failed to seize the opportunity at the Baron pit, ultimately leading to their defeat.

"Sigh, what a pity. I told you OMG we might not get a chance to drag it out to the later stages. Now do you believe me?" Li Chen seemed a little sad. He put down the chicken feet in his hand and took a wet wipe to wipe the grease from the corner of his mouth.

[C, feel free to laugh if you want; there are no outsiders here.]

[Haven't you guys figured out what "c" means yet? This game was so bad.]

Really? Which one is more satisfying to eat? It's so hard to guess!

[You're asking a question you already know the answer to!]

"Don't misunderstand the streamer. As an EDG player, I definitely support EDG unconditionally. I also feel bad seeing EDG lose a game. I can only eat something to cheer myself up. But it's not a big problem. We will probably be able to catch up in the next game."

Li Chen didn't think EDG would really be swept, even in the early to mid-game, EDG's lineup was not afraid of OMG.

It can only be said that since he hasn't been playing recently, Nofe is afraid of not gaining an advantage in the early game, so he doesn't dare to pick strong early-game lineups and always tries to drag the game into the late game.

But in reality, OMG is not RNG or WE; the team's overall level can only be described as near-top-tier.

However, considering that Seven and Buddha are not playing, EDG's strength may not be firmly among the top teams, so it's really hard to say what will happen in this best-of-three series.

In the second game, nofe took the initiative to make changes, giving A-Guang a chance to shine, and picked heroes like Rumble.

With Scout's help, the top, mid, and jungle players consistently gained a certain advantage.

As the game dragged into the late stages, EDG, with a certain economic advantage, also had a slight edge in team fights, ultimately securing the victory and tying the series 1-1.

However, in the third game that followed, OMG learned from their mistake and did not give Scout a better chance to perform, keeping the economy very close between the two sides.

The game time reached 36 minutes, and Sima Laozei seemed to have made a positioning mistake, almost walking right into the faces of EDG's bottom lane duo.

iboy and meiko wanted to seize the opportunity to eliminate each other quickly, but Sima Laozei was actually fishing in the opposite direction.

The moment Meiko controlled him, Sima Laozei used Mercury's Treads and Flash to create distance, then activated W and unleashed a barrage of attacks, ultimately killing Meiko and stalling until his teammates arrived.

Without the Incense Burner monster's original form, the AD carry's damage output ceiling in team fights was greatly reduced, and OMG pressed their advantage to finish them off.

Miller watched as EDG crumbled in the team fight, almost getting wiped out by OMG, and said with a slightly stunned expression, "OMG won this team fight. There are minions in the mid lane now, so EDG might be going to be wiped out in one fell swoop."

Wawa nodded slightly, watching OMG push straight into and flatten EDG's base, and sighed, "Then we congratulate OMG on winning this best-of-three series. This also means that EDG has suffered their first major defeat in a best-of-three series this year."

As online viewers watched EDG lose the match, some fans couldn't help but start typing on their keyboards.

What kind of game is this? Let's disband!

[OMG, we can't even beat them! Where are the carry and Clearlove? Aren't they going to step up?]

[Layoffs hit the lifeline, palace intrigue brings down the crown prince!]

To put it bluntly, without Carry and Clearlove, EDG will have a tough time even making it to Worlds.

In Li Chen's live stream, quite a few people started cursing, while many more urged Li Chen to come out of retirement as soon as possible.

After all, EDG's current performance is completely different from before.

However, Li Chen was kind-hearted and willing to give the young man a chance. He raised his hands and said, "Brothers, let the streamer off the hook. My hand has really been a bit uncomfortable lately, and it's just one loss. It won't affect the overall situation. It's okay."

But the end of this match not only left the audience dissatisfied, but also made many teams realize EDG's current state.

Ai Luoli lacks experience and is unable to control the pace of the game.

The bottom lane has too little impact on the game's outcome in the early and mid-game; even if someone dies once, it's difficult to determine the advantage or disadvantage.

Although A-Guang in the top lane doesn't make any major mistakes, it's difficult for him to consistently gain an advantage on his own.

Therefore, the heavy responsibility of the C game falls entirely on Scout in the mid lane. If Scout can be shut down, it is not impossible to beat EDG.

In short, without Li Chen and Clearlove, EDG is no longer the top team that was difficult to defeat no matter what.
