Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

"There is definitely pressure, but more of it is excitement," Lin Feng said. TheShy, a mechanical genius, is known for his extreme offensiveness and unfathomable hero pool. Being able to confront such an opponent is itself a kind of motivation.

The factory manager also sent a special message: "Fengzi, when playing against IG, especially against TheShy, keep your mind steady and believe in yourself. Your recent state is not inferior to anyone."

Lin Feng took a deep breath and nodded.

Soon, the BP phase began.

IG is on the blue side and RNG is on the red side.

Wawa: "Here it comes! RNG vs. IG! The tension in this game started from the BP!"

Miller: "Yes, IG's first three picks directly suppressed Lin Feng's recently outstanding Crocodile and Irelia, as well as Shen! Very targeted!"

Guan Zeyuan: "This is also normal. After all, Fengzi's performance on these heroes has been too eye-catching recently, especially offensive top laners, which can easily cause a chain reaction in TheShy's hands."

When it was RNG's turn to ban people, they targeted IG's mid and jungle, banning Leblanc, Zoe, and Lee Sin.

IG grabbed the strong Kaisa in this version.

RNG locked in the Xayah and Rakan combination to ensure the laning strength and late-game capabilities of the bottom lane.

IG's second and third floors took down the mid laner Syndra and the support Braum.

The third and fourth floors of RNG chose jungler Olaf and mid laner Ryze, which is a mid-jungle combination with a very strong mid-term rhythm.

The key counter position is left to the top laners of both teams.

TheShy revealed Jayce on the fourth floor!

The audience exclaimed! TheShy's Jayce was firing like a rocket, with extremely strong suppression power!

Wawa: "Jayce! One of TheShy's signature players! He is going to absolutely suppress the opponent in the lane!"

Miller: "Once Jayce comes out, it depends on how Lin Feng responds. If he wants to handle the pressure, Ornn and Sion are good choices, but I don't think they fit Fengzi's style."

Everyone's eyes were focused on RNG's final pick.

Lin Feng's avatar flickered a few times, and finally, an extremely domineering hero was locked on -

"Darkborn Sword Demon Aatrox!"

Guan Zeyuan: "Aatrox! Brother Fengzi took out Aatrox! He's going to go head-to-head with TheShy! When Aatrox fights Jayce, both sides have room to maneuver!"

Wawa: "That's right! With the Sword Demon's recovery ability and the burst of three-stage Q, he is not powerless against Jayce! And Lin Feng's Sword Demon also performed like a god in the previous Rank!"

The lineups of both sides are determined:

IG (blue side): top laner Jayce (TheShy), jungler Prince (Ning), mid laner Syndra (Rookie), ADC Kaisa (JackeyLove), support Braum (Baolan).

RNG (red side): top laner Aatrox (LinFeng), jungler Olaf (Karsa), mid laner Ryze (Xiaohu), ADC Xia (Uzi), support Rakan (Ming).

enter the game!

Lin Feng's Aatrox chose Doran's Shield as his starting item, which enabled him to develop steadily. TheShy's Jayce used the usual Doran's Blade, pursuing the ultimate in laning suppression.

At level 1, TheShy's Jayce showed a strong sense of oppression, switching to hammer form and using his W skill "Thunderbolt" to speed up, and wanted to consume the Sword Demon right away. Lin Feng had anticipated this and pulled back, not giving Jayce a chance to attack him.

"TheShy played very proactively, and Lin Feng handled the situation very calmly," Miller said.

In the early stage, both sides played very cautiously. TheShy used Jayce's long arm advantage to constantly look for opportunities to poke, while Lin Feng relied on the edge of the range of the Sword Demon's Q skill "Dark Blade" to last hit, and used the passive "Death Sword Qi" to restore health. The number of last hits of both sides took turns to lead, and the experience was also very close.

Karsa's Olaf had a good rhythm in the early game. He first helped Uzi get the first blood in the bottom lane, and then controlled the first little dragon.

6 minutes into the game, TheShy's Jayce took advantage of the gap when Lin Feng's Aatrox was replenishing his cannons and fired a precise QE combo to hit the Aatrox, instantly reducing his health.

"A nice shot! TheShy's Jayce is still so accurate!" Wawa exclaimed.

Seeing this, TheShy immediately switched to hammer form and used his Q skill "Sky Leap" to jump up and attack.

At the moment Jayce jumped, Lin Feng's Aatrox did not retreat but advanced!

The E skill "Shadow Rush" adjusted the body position to avoid the damage caused by Jayce's landing. At the same time, the first Q skill "Darkin Blade" accurately hit Jayce!
TheShy reacted extremely quickly and immediately used flash to pull back.

A cold light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and he also decisively followed up with Flash!

Activate the W skill "Evil Fire Chain" to slow down Jayce!
The second Q skill hits again!

TheShy switched to cannon form and tried to fight back, but he was slowed down and couldn't get away at all.

The third part of the Q skill, the center area suddenly smashes down!

"boom!"

With the damage from ignite, TheShy's Jayce's health dropped to the bottom and he was killed by Lin Feng!

“First Blood!” (The system determined that although Uzi got the first blood, the top laner got the kill independently this time, and sometimes the broadcast will have an emphasis)
It should actually be: "An enemy has been slain!"

"Solo kill!! Lin Feng solo killed TheShy!!" Wawa jumped up from his chair excitedly.

Miller: "Oh my god! This operation is so detailed! E skill dodges the hammer form Q, flashes to follow up, W to keep the opponent, and three stages of Q hit accurately! Lin Feng played with confidence!"

Guan Zeyuan: "TheShy was too careless, or too confident in his own operation. He probably didn't expect Lin Feng to dare to fight back when his health was not superior, and he played so decisively!"

This single kill made the entire arena boil.

Lin Feng's Sword Demon went home and directly took out the burning gem and a long sword to further improve his laning ability.

TheShy's Jayce began to feel tremendous pressure in the lane. The Sword Demon's recovery ability and the threat of his Q skill made him dare not suppress as recklessly as before.

Seeing that the top lane had gained an advantage, Karsa's Olaf also began to visit the top lane frequently.

At 8 minutes, Olaf went around the back, and Lin Feng's Aatrox used W to pull Jayce. Olaf activated his ultimate skill "Ragnarok" and rushed directly to the face, and with the damage of Aatrox, he killed TheShy's Jayce under the tower again!
"The top lane exploded! This is going to be a very difficult game for TheShy!"

"Brother Fengzi's Sword Demon is so powerful! It feels like he has entered the God-like mode!"

Lin Feng's Sword Demon developed very quickly and quickly made a Black Cleaver.

12 minutes in, Rift Herald fight. IG gathered to fight for the Herald.

RNG pulled from the front, while Lin Feng's Sword Demon looked for opportunities from the flank.

Ning's Prince EQ wanted to start a team fight, but was interrupted by Ming's Luo W.

At this moment, Lin Feng's Sword Demon activated his ultimate move "Great Destruction"!
With its huge wings spread out, its body size increased dramatically, and it moved at an extremely fast speed, rushing into the IG formation like a devil descending to the earth!

Q1 hit three people! E skill adjusted the position, Q2 hit three people again, and at the same time W skill accurately locked JackeyLove's Kaisa!
Kaisa gave up her healing and flash and tried to escape, but was pulled back by Aatrox's W!

Q3, central area!
"Double Kill!"

With his own strength, the Sword Demon instantly melted IG's back row Kaisa and support Braum!

Rookie's Syndra used all her skills to try to kill Aatrox instantly, but Aatrox's recovery ability was amazing after he activated the Great Destruction. He withstood the damage and cooperated with his teammates to kill Syndra.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ning's Jarvan and TheShy's Jayce had to retreat in panic.

RNG made a 0-for-3 exchange and successfully took the Rift Herald!
"Oh my God! Lin Feng! What kind of damage does this Sword Demon have? He fought one against three and killed two of them!" Wawa's voice was already a little hoarse.

Miller: "It's like a god descending from heaven! A true god descending from heaven! In this teamfight, Lin Feng's Aatrox's timing of entering the field and releasing his skills were perfect! IG's backline couldn't handle it at all!"

Guan Zeyuan: "I can only say, Brother Fengzi, you are awesome! You defeated Huni in the last game, are you going to defeat TheShy this time?"

With the victory in this team battle, RNG started a huge snowball.

Lin Feng's Aatrox was unstoppable, and TheShy's Jayce was far behind in equipment and was no match for him. IG tried to send two people to catch Aatrox, but Lin Feng used his ultimate and skills to kill one of them and escaped calmly.

In the 22nd minute, RNG pushed forward in the middle lane with the Baron Buff.

Lin Feng's Sword Demon took the lead and stood at the front.

IG fought desperately, and Ning's Prince blocked the three RNG players.

During the duration of Lin Feng's ultimate, he was like a god of war, going in and out of the IG crowd seven times. The huge AOE damage and recovery of the Q skill made the IG people despair.

In the end, under the leadership of Lin Feng's Sword Demon, RNG pushed down IG's crystal hub with great ease.

A huge "VICTORY" lit up on the screen!
"Let's congratulate RNG! They won this focus battle cleanly!"

"Player Lin Feng! He is undoubtedly the MVP of this match! His Aatrox was a phenomenal performance!"

During the handshake after the game, TheShy walked up to Lin Feng. His eyes, which always had a hint of rebellion, were now more solemn. He stretched out his hand and said in somewhat awkward Chinese: "You are very strong."

Lin Feng smiled slightly: "You too."

Back in the locker room, teammates gathered around.

"Brother Fengzi, your Sword Demon is too powerful! He is simply not a human being!" Xiao Ming shouted exaggeratedly.

Uzi also smiled and patted Lin Feng on the shoulder: "Well done! This Sword Demon has the style of me back then!"

Karsa: "It's so comfortable to work with you in the jungle!"

Coaches Heart and Sun Dayong were all smiles. Lin Feng's growth rate had exceeded their expectations.

"Lin Feng, your performance in this game was perfect. Keep up the form." Coach Heart encouraged.

Outside the window, the neon lights of the city flickered. Lin Feng knew that this was just a small step in his career. The road ahead was still long, but his goal had never been so clear.

He glanced at his phone and saw a message from the factory manager: "I knew you could do it! The world championship stage is waiting for you!"

Lin Feng raised the corners of his mouth, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

The match against IG was like a huge rock dropped into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves in the LPL and even the global League of Legends community. Lin Feng's name, along with his Aatrox that looked like a demon descending from the earth, was mentioned by more and more people.

Event time: The day after the game, LPL official interview and review program

The next evening, the LPL official channel launched a special program, inviting some players and coaches from RNG and IG to participate in post-match interviews and in-depth replays. This kind of program is not uncommon after the focus game, which can not only satisfy the curiosity of the audience, but also provide a platform for players and teams to show and communicate.

The studio was brightly lit.

The hosts are the familiar Wawa and Miller, and today's guest seats are occupied by representatives of two teams.

On the RNG side are coach Heart and players Lin Feng and Uzi.

On the IG side are coach Kim Jung-soo and players TheShy and Rookie.

Wawa started by livening up the atmosphere: "Welcome everyone to our "Peak Showdown Post-match Talk" today! Yesterday's game was so exciting, especially the top lane match. I believe all the audience were excited!"

Miller took over the conversation: "Yes, first of all, I want to ask Coach Heart, RNG was able to win this crucial victory yesterday. What do you think is the biggest shining point of the team?"

Coach Heart had a gentle smile on his face: "First of all, it's the hard work and trust of the players. Lin Feng played very well. He took on the pressure of the top lane well and played his own rhythm. Uzi and Ming's stable performance in the bottom lane and Karsa and Xiaohu's mid-jungle cooperation were also crucial. This is a team victory."

The camera turned to IG's coach, Kim Jeong-soo. Coach Kim was known for his strict discipline. His expression was still calm, but his eyes were sharp: "RNG played really well yesterday, especially their top laner. Their handling of the laning phase and their entry into teamfights caused us a lot of trouble. We will review it when we get back." He said, his eyes casually sweeping over Lin Feng.

Wawa asked Lin Feng: "Brother Fengzi, did you have any special preparations before the game against TheShy yesterday? How did you feel when you were able to kill TheShy alone?"

Lin Feng picked up the microphone and smiled shyly: "TheShy has always been an opponent I respect very much. His operation and laning pressure are world-class. The coaching staff also helped me do a lot of analysis before the game and told me some details that I need to pay attention to. As for the solo kill, there was actually some luck involved, because I caught a small mistake of his. Of course I was very excited, but more importantly, I was able to help the team gain an advantage."

TheShy sat nearby, listening to Lin Feng's answer through the translator. He nodded slightly, as if he agreed with some of Lin Feng's statements, and seemed to be recalling yesterday's confrontation.

Miller turned to TheShy and said, "Player TheShy, in yesterday's Aatrox vs. Jayce, what do you think is the difference between Lin Feng's Aatrox and the ones you have encountered before?"

TheShy picked up the microphone and said in slightly unfamiliar but clear Chinese: "He... is very daring. His Q skill is very accurate. I know what he wants to do, but... he did it better." He paused and added, "Next time, I will be more careful."

This remark drew a good-natured laugh from the crowd. TheShy's honesty and competitive spirit were fully revealed.

Rookie, as the mainstay of IG, also added: "The addition of Lin Feng has indeed enriched RNG's tactical system. Not only is he strong individually, but his top-jungle synergy with Karsa is also very threatening. We need to do more research on this when we go back."

Uzi was as confident as ever: "The atmosphere in our team is very good now, and everyone is working towards the same goal. After Fengzi came, the top laner was able to step up and carry the team, and he also relieved a lot of pressure from our bottom laner. This feels great."

During the program, the coaches of both teams also discussed some tactics. (End of this chapter)
