League: Educating LPL is my duty.
Chapter 331 Enlightenment in the Water Prison
The atmosphere in EDG's rest room was a bit tense, with only nofe diligently analyzing some of the mistakes from the previous game.
After a while, Abu pushed the door open and came in.
The factory manager and the others all turned their attention to Abu, waiting for him to announce something.
The most nervous person was undoubtedly iboy. He knew his current situation all too well. If he was carried off the field today, he could forget about playing again, including going to the World Championship.
Abu walked up to Li Chen, let out a long sigh, and said, "Chen, you and Zet will play together in the next round!"
The factory manager, Meiko, Scout, and even A-Guang, who was about to be substituted, all felt a sense of relief upon hearing this.
Even Ah Guang is the one among everyone who most wants Li Chen to get on the field as soon as possible.
God knows how much pressure he endured during this period as a starter.
He was very clear about his own abilities and knew that he had no chance of leading the team to victory. From a very early time, he had been thinking of being a substitute and getting free skins.
The only one who felt resentful was iboy. He still couldn't understand why Li Chen was unwilling to play with him.
It's clearly a bot lane meta, and his mechanics are even better than Zet's. If Li Chen plays around him, wouldn't it be an easy victory?
Why does it have to be a Zet who has no redeeming qualities and only knows how to loaf around and wait to die?
However, just when everyone thought the outcome was decided and EDG was about to return to its full strength, Li Chen suddenly shook his head and refused.
"Manager, let's wait and see. What if we win? We can decide on the next round!"
Li Chen refused, not for personal reasons, but because the system, which had been dormant since MSI, sent him a task the day before yesterday.
"Ding! Forced into seclusion in the water prison, do you feel a trace of resentment? Does the desolation of dusk remind you of the days when you dominated the competition? When the team is pushed to the brink, do you still have the courage to lead the team to a comeback?"
To achieve legendary status in the competitive arena, one needs not only skill but also the opportunity to prove oneself. The system task has been generated: In any final match of a League A or higher, enter the game when your team has lost the first two matches and lead them to victory! Reward: 2 Honor Points!
Looking at the task issued by the system in his mind, Li Chen silently shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't want to do it; it was just a task from the system, and he couldn't bear to give up two honor points.
Li Chen's answer surprised everyone.
In the summer season playoffs finals, which determined whether they could win the championship and achieve a grand slam in a year, the team was down 0-1.
Under these circumstances, Li Chen actually refused to appear, and Abu almost thought he had misheard.
"Ah Chen, you can't act impulsively. What if we lose again in the next match? We'll..."
Abu thought Li Chen was still dissatisfied and wanted to offer some advice, but he didn't know how to say it, as this didn't seem to be his strong suit.
For the first time, he felt that the pig wasn't so useless after all; there was a reason why it could find a job.
"Manager, it's okay, let them do it. My stomach is a little upset, I need to go to the restroom first."
Unable to bear the resentful look in someone's eyes, Li Chen chose to retreat using his escape technique, leaving everyone staring at each other in the rest room.
Ultimately, EDG did not make any personnel changes in this game and kept their starting lineup.
On the commentary desk, Miller, who had not received any news of roster changes even after both teams took to the field, said, "Neither side has made any personnel adjustments, which may be a little different from our expectations. However, this is only the second game, and the suspense of this final is still very high."
"Perhaps after the rest period, EDG has regained its form. Losing a game in a BO5 is not something that is hard to accept. Keep your mindset, face your opponents, and forget about the first game!" Guan Zeyuan added.
Rita watched the team members on both sides adjusting their peripherals on the screen, feeling slightly disappointed.
If Li Chen doesn't perform, how can she promote herself? Without promotion, where will the viewership come from? If this continues, her income will decline.
In the audience, many people held up Li Chen's memorial tablet with disappointed expressions...they seemed to have lost their spirit.
The viewers in the live stream were in an uproar.
[Damn it, are they out of their minds? Does EDG really not want to win?]
[Even in this situation, why are you still stubbornly insisting on bringing C up?]
All I can say is that some people chickened out; they figured as long as they didn't fight, they wouldn't lose.
[No problem, RNG has reached its full potential, what makes them think they can beat us?]
Based on my twenty years of veterinary experience, I predict that the first hand, C, is waiting for a comeback from a 2-0 deficit to win 3-2.
Regardless of what the audience thought, the second game started as normal.
This time, EDG learned their lesson. Since Tristana is not good against Ezreal in the early game, they just picked Ezreal.
Therefore, EDG, who had the first pick, decisively chose Ezreal in the first pick. However, after consideration, they did not choose a hard support pairing for the support, but instead picked Karma and added Lucian for the mid lane.
To compensate for the lack of magic damage, EDG's top and jungle picked Cho'Gath and Gragas, and with Karma, they weren't too lacking in magic damage output.
However, RNG opted to swap lineups with EDG, bringing out a combination of Tristana and Purple Garlic in the bot lane.
Looking at the lineups on both sides, Guan Zeyuan said with some surprise, "The lineups on both sides have been completely swapped in this game, but the core strategy has not changed. It's just that EDG is now playing an aggressive style. It all depends on how well the two sides perform."
Miller said with some concern: "RNG's bot lane duo is generally hard to break down. EDG completely entrusting the ball to the bot lane doesn't seem like a good idea."
……
"The Tristana has three core items and is about to enter her power spike. EDG's damage is a bit weak. They can't deal with Zac at all; the damage isn't enough. On the contrary, Cho'Gath melts too quickly."
……
"Whose dragon is it? RNG got it! EDG needs to retreat quickly, this team fight is lost. How many can escape? Tristana killed Lucian, jumped up, double kill! Ezreal can't escape either, triple kill! There are minions in the top lane, the game is about to end!"
As EDG's crystal shattered, Miller took two deep breaths and said, "Congratulations to RNG, they have won the second game and are now leading 2-0. EDG is on the verge of elimination; they have no way out."
"Perhaps I think EDG should think of a way to make some appropriate adjustments. They can't accept the current situation," Rita said almost bluntly.
Guan Zeyuan objectively stated: "The current situation is probably something no one expected before the match. RNG has shown their strength and wants to take the championship with the momentum of a champion, but EDG is not without a chance. The match is not over yet."
"That's right, EDG still has a chance. Since the Spring Split, they have won countless games with an absolutely invincible attitude, and even swept SKT. They definitely have a chance to create a miracle."
[What a miracle! It's 3-0 at the end!]
[Zhao Xiao, make him take the blame later, he'll be kicked out after one game.]
When the world calls upon your name, you will manifest again to quell the unrest!
[C is going to be the one to win the next round. Don't ask me how I know; he can't bear to part with that much prize money.]
The script is already written: a comeback from 0-2 down to win 3-2!
In the EDG rest room, Li Chen held his phone, silently preparing a Weibo post to be published fifteen minutes later:
That's enough of our pretend game. Remember to take lots of pictures of me holding the cup in two hours!
