LOL: My talent is top-tier, my professional skills are unparalleled.

Chapter 630 Reversing Heavenly Order! A squishy support hero forcibly takes down a mage assassin!
"My God, Kshine just pulled off a solo kill!!!"

I don't even know how to describe it anymore.

If this is AD, then everything is normal.

No, if it were an AD carry, they wouldn't dare to provoke the mage assassin Akali!

Even if the opponent is underdeveloped, only the AD carry truly knows how vulnerable they are. The AD carry's survivability in this version is not as good as before.

Even a 0-8 super-feeding mage assassin can still dominate an 8-0 ADC!

A crispy rat dares to try and eat Akali? Isn't that a complete rebellion against the heavens?
"Yes, his positioning and mechanics were absolutely top-notch. He seemed to have just solo-killed Akali, but his health was still quite good."

"If Kshine hadn't dodged one of Akali's two key abilities, he would likely have been solo-killed by Chovy's Akali."

Colonel Guan also sighed.

The main reason is that he's never seen anything like this before, even after commentating on so many matches for so long!

Not only the commentators, but even the audience in the live broadcast room were equally shocked.

"That skill, that positioning, the invincible ADC version of Yao from S7 is back!"

"It's back! My youth is back! People at the Bird's Nest are moved to tears!"

"I recognized him instantly – this was my absolute favorite top-tier ADC player, bar none!"

"..."

After successfully solo killing Akali, Wang Yao smiled. He had originally used his ultimate to attack Akali, simply to reduce her health.

If the opponent wanted to escape, I would never have been able to stop them, but I never expected that Chaowei would actually be deliberately giving away his life!
"Damn, Yao, you should just turn off the cheat, it's really no fun."

at the same time.

In EDG's team voice chat, JackeyLove's voice could be heard, filled with shock and a hint of barely suppressed emotion.

Because he happened to witness the whole process, he was utterly astonished.

EDG really didn't need to spend a maximum salary to buy him. With a top-tier ADC like Wang Yao, there's absolutely no need to buy him!
"Awesome, awesome!"

Jiejie and the others were also very excited.

Although EDG secured Baron Nashor, they still struggled to push forward, as their lack of initiation capabilities was a major weakness.

But now that a solo kill has occurred, the situation is naturally different. With a numerical advantage, it's definitely possible to push through.

On the other side, the DRX players' bench.

Watching Chovy's Akali get solo killed by a support Twitch, the group was at a loss for words.

Just now, Chovy knew that a team fight could break out at any time at Baron, but his Akali used her W skill, Twilight Shroud, to farm minions, and couldn't teleport in time, resulting in the loss of Baron.

Now he's been solo-killed by the support!

How else can this game be played?
"You don't need to fight him, you just need to tell him not to push the tower!"

"Yeah, what the hell are you playing at? Damn it..."

At the crucial moment, it was Deft, as the senior member of the team, who spoke up in time to stop the argument.

"Alright, stop arguing. We still have a chance. Stay calm!"

"Even if we lose, we still have two games to spare."

Deft tried his best to calm his teammates down; even if they couldn't win this game, he couldn't let them lose their composure.

Once their mentality crumbled and they became emotional, being swept 3-0 by EDG made them even more embarrassed.

You should know that this year, that guy is playing the support role!

Instead of the traditional Carry position!
This is already EDG's weakest year.

Meanwhile, after Wang Yao's Rat solo killed Akali, EDG naturally wouldn't sit idly by.

The mouse alone brings pressure, and four people advance from the front!
A wave of dragon buffs directly expanded the economy to nearly six thousand. When the economy expands to a certain value, the deficiencies in the lineup can basically be ignored.

In addition, Flandre's Renekton was at its strongest, and Chovy, as a mid laner, was actually solo killed by a support, which affected his mentality.

His technique has become severely distorted.

So at the 28-minute mark of the match, EDG successfully won the first game of the quarterfinals!

Let's congratulate EDG!!!

When DRX's crystal shattered into countless fragments scattered across the screen, Remember's excited voice rang out from the commentary booth.

The main surprise was the Twitch support pick; it completely overwhelmed DRX's mid laner, leaving him utterly helpless and silencing Chovy.

"However, this is only the first game of today's match."

At just the right moment, Colonel Guan spoke up, "For both teams, this is just the beginning."

"Although DRX lost the first game, we still hope they can quickly adjust and bring us a great performance."

Upon hearing this, DRX's already small fanbase immediately fell into deep thought.

"Hey haters, speak up! Who was just calling my brother Yao a jerk who messes up scientific research? Step forward!"

"From now on, we can't call him Brother Yao anymore. We have to call him Dr. Yao at least!"

"..."

at the same time.

EDG over there.

After winning the first game, Flandre took off his headphones and told his opponent to leave.

"I won the first game so easily. I thought it would be very difficult."

He couldn't help but sigh.

Flandre felt that his Renekton did nothing, and he easily won the game by ganking DRX's Akali in the mid lane with Twitch a few times.

"Brother Yao is too fierce, but I feel so uncomfortable."

JKL, standing to the side, said with a wry smile, "It's hard to describe the feeling of winning a game on your knees. After all, no ADC wants to be stuck in the bot lane forever."

In a corner of the audience seats.

Seeing that EDG had easily won the first game, the DWG players looked serious.

After easily defeating their own team GEN, the DWG members are still very confident about their performance at this year's World Championship.

But after seeing EDG's performance, they instantly lost their confidence!

"I always felt like they weren't using their full strength."

Xu Xiu took a deep breath.

Hearing him say that, Canyon asked, "Why do you say that? Although they did play very well in this game, they must have used all their strength."

"Kenshiki, didn't you notice? In this game, they've been leading DRX by the nose simply because of their mid and support advantages."

"Their mid laner didn't exert any effort at all; the advantage was entirely due to their support!"

"what do you mean……"

Canyon looked thoughtful.

"That's right. They probably think that against DRX, they don't even need to exert force in the mid lane, and they don't want to reveal too much."

"That's why I said they didn't use their full strength!"

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, EDG will most likely be our opponent in this final."

Coach Daeny, Liang Daren, spoke up from the side.

Originally, EDG's roster this year was weaker than last year's, since Wang Yao switched to the support position, but judging from the results, it seems that this is not the case!
That man is terrifying even in the support role!
At this moment, in the EDG rest area.

After winning the first game, he naturally received a barrage of praise from Abu and the factory manager. After all, he won, so he had to be praised.

After a brief compliment, the factory manager began to talk about the second round.

After all, this is a BO5. Winning a game is only a good start, but it is far from winning the game.

If you open the champagne too early, there will be backlash!

In the history of World Championships, there are too many teams that won the first game of BO5, but lost again after the game.

There were even cases where the game hadn't even started yet, but when they saw the draw, they opened the champagne and laughed, only to be hit back.

The atmosphere at EDG was harmonious, but it was a bit different at DRX.

Losing the game is not a big deal. They didn't expect to sweep EDG today, but losing a game right from the start, especially one where they were completely outmatched, is just too hard to accept.

Not to mention the DRX players, even their coach, Marc, is feeling a bit depressed right now.

He really didn't expect that EDG would play a research game in the first game of the quarterfinals, picking a Twitch support to fight against them, and actually winning!
However, DRX's coach, Cvmax, did not blame anyone else. They were in the middle of a match, and it wouldn't be good to say anything too harsh, as it could affect the players' mentality and cause problems.

You can blame, but you have to wait until the game is over.

Of course, the main reason was that he, as a coach, failed to collect enough information and was caught off guard.

"It's nothing, it's just the first game."

Myco forced a smile. "Just play well from now on."

"We even eliminated FPX in the group stage. This year's EDG isn't strong, so let's not rush and keep our composure."

After being given a bowl of fresh, toxic chicken soup, the five members of DRX finally felt a little better.

"Give me Ezreal next game."

Deft took the initiative to speak up. As the team's senior member, he had to step up and suppress the opposing duo's performance.

"If the other side doesn't ban it, I'll definitely get it for you."

McGregor agreed.

Putting everything else aside, let's focus on improving the team's atmosphere first. If we keep feeling frustrated by losing games, then this competition is pointless.

"We can't let the enemy team have this EZ, he's too disgusting!"

Keria, who was standing nearby, also started complaining.

In the last game, they lost to EDG mainly because their mid laner, Chaowei, was targeted and destroyed by Twitch, while EDG's bot lane relied on Ezreal to drag out the game for too long.

If JKL had picked any other ADC, he would have already lost the lane!

So the rat isn't the real key; the most important thing is Ezreal. Either they pick him themselves, or they ban him.

When Mycroft heard Keria's words, he nodded in agreement.

Even though he had no preparation, he could still see some problems from the laning in the bottom lane of the game just now.

"Yes, we have to keep that guy tied to the bottom lane, we can't let him come to the mid lane to annoy people anymore!"

Chovy also spoke up indignantly.

They ganked mid lane twice right from the start, and I died three times in a row. How could I possibly play? I couldn't play at all!
The game was over before Akali even reached her power spike.

"In short, let's play well in the second game and try to bring the score back!"

With that, McGregor stood up from his seat, bumped fists with everyone, and encouraged each other. Soon, the second match began!

"Welcome to the Summoners here and watching on screen. Let's continue watching the 2020 League of Legends World Championship, featuring the match between EDG and DRX."

"After the first game, EDG is currently in the lead."

"However, this is a best-of-five series after all, so DRX still has a chance to tie the score."

Guan Daxiao's words made the already small number of DRX fans' hearts beat faster.

"Shut up!!!"

"I suggest a thorough investigation of Colonel Guan's bank statements. I suspect he has dealings with EDG."

"If DRX wins today, wouldn't that be considered a god-slaying victory?"

“There may be many gods, but there is always only one God.”

"..."

It didn't take long.

The second game between EDG and DRX has begun.

In this game, DRX was on the blue side, while EDG went to the red side.

The first round of bans for both sides ended quickly, similar to the previous game.

After DRX removed Heimerdinger, they added Lucian and Senna, a champion that JackeyLove is known for his exceptional AD carry skills.

EDG, on the other hand, targeted Chaowei's Sylas and preemptively banned Ezreal, which Deft wanted.

"Huh? The Ice Blade has been released!"

I remember when I found out about this, I thought, "Should EDG take it? Varus is also out there, and EDG used to play this combination very well!"

"But I feel that DRX might try to snatch it up themselves."

Colonel Guan continued.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, DRX immediately locked in Ashe!

"Siege has been picked, so I wonder what EDG will use to counter it?"

"The main issue is that this Ashe might not necessarily be played as an AD carry! The opposing team might also follow Kshine's example and play Ashe as a support!"

"After all, their support player Keria also really likes to play those kinds of unconventional support roles."

"Syndra has been released, I feel like EDG can let Scout pick her, because it's his best champion!"

Several commentators were analyzing the situation at the same time.

EDG over there.

The factory manager was also asking Wang Yao and the others questions.

"How about we take Luo? It'll make it easier for us to move around."

"Wandering?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yao shook his head and said, "Roaming is fine, but who am I supposed to help? What if the enemy picks an Ashe + Varus combination? What will happen to the bot lane?"

Wang Yao's words left the factory director speechless.

Although it's a bit unpleasant to hear, there's not much to refute.

That makes sense. Even if Ashe is played as an AD carry, having the ADC stay in the bot lane and the support roaming around seems to only help the mid lane the most.

"So, what heroes are you two planning to play?"

The factory manager asked.

"Let's give it to the mid and jungle first, we'll get it to the bot lane later."

"Ok."

The factory manager nodded.

The factory manager then helped Scout get Syndra, and then immediately helped Jiejie get Kindred.

Kindred is not Jiejie's forte, but his main purpose was to prevent Pyosik from getting it.

After all, this hero is Pyosik's signature jungler.

"As expected, Syndra has been released, and EDG has no reason not to take her!"

Miller finally managed a smile.

Seeing that EDG had revealed their mid and jungle players, after discussing with Chaowei and the others, MaiGe decided to help Pyosik get the remaining Graves.

Then, they locked in Renekton for Doran in the top lane to enhance his early-game fighting ability and better assist the jungler in controlling resources.

As for the champion to pair with Ashe in the bot lane, Coach Mai didn't rush to choose. He wanted EDG to guess for themselves whether Ashe would play support or AD carry.

"Ah Shui, what are you playing?"

The factory manager asked a question and decided to give him the AD carry role as the third pick, otherwise he would easily be targeted by the opponent in the second round.

As for Flandre, he'll be picked last, to see the opposing team's lineup and enjoy the final counter pick.

Upon hearing the question, Ah Shui subconsciously turned her gaze to that familiar purple figure.

This hero carries too many memories for him.

Unfortunately, this version of Kai'Sa is too weak in the early game. After hesitating for a moment, he finally revealed his Draven.

"Just him!"

"Yes!" the factory manager nodded.

In the commentary box.

Seeing the confirmed Draven, Colonel Guan seemed to realize something.

He remarked with considerable emotion, "In this game, we can see that EDG's mid and bot lane carries both picked their most confident and best-performing heroes!"

"It looks like EDG is planning to go all out and sweep this team that's standing in their way of winning their fourth championship!"

Following Guan Daxiao's inspiring speech, the two sides began the second round of banning.

The second round of banning is much simpler than the first round.

Seeing that EDG had picked Draven, Coach Mai naturally disabled Pyke.

After all, the Pyke + Draven bot lane duo was quite devastating to DRX's bot lane.

After banning Pyke, ban Ornn next!
Ornn is a champion who can still be effective in team fights even if he has to endure pressure and farm less minions. In fact, he can even help his teammates get items later in the game.

So we banned him directly; we can't let Flandre drag Doran along with him.

On the other hand, EDG banned Nautilus, a champion that counters Draven, and then banned Orianna.

As for whether the opponent will pick Varus and have Ashe play support, Wang Yao isn't worried about that.

Although the double AD suppression power is indeed very strong, it depends on who they are fighting against. It is still not enough in front of Draven.

After the banning phase ended, the factory manager asked Wang Yao which hero he wanted to pick.

"Let's pick Thresh!"

"Ah."

This time, surprisingly, the factory manager didn't say anything else and simply nodded in agreement.

"How shall we carry out that pleasurable torture?"

Seeing that EDG reserved the last counter pick for the top lane, Coach Mai wasn't worried, because he didn't think Flandre could beat Doran.

However, Draven's early-game laning pressure is indeed very strong, making him somewhat difficult to deal with.

So after discussing it with Chovy, he picked Akali for Chovy again, hoping to counter Draven during team fights.

Locking in Akali, Mago also gave Keria Pantheon.

"DRX's lineup is finalized, so what kind of champion will EDG give Flandre?"

"How about Sion? This is also one of Flandre's best champions, and he performed quite well in this World Championship."

"But isn't it a bit of a waste for Conte to take Sean?"

Colonel Guan, Rita, and Ji De were all talking at once.

"Gun, what champion do you want to play this game? Sion?"

"Or should we pick Fiora this game?"

If we're looking to add a split-pushing champion, then Fiora is undoubtedly the best choice.

"How about we pick Camille instead? Fiora isn't very good in team fights."

"Which bullet do you want?" the factory manager asked again.

"Um……"

Saint Gun thought for a moment.

"Let's play Camille."

After the hero was decided, Wang Yao on the fifth floor immediately locked Camille for Flandre.

"Precision is the difference between slaughter and surgery!"

Seeing EDG pick Camille, commentator Guan Daxiao couldn't help but say:

"If Camille is used against Renekton, EDG's fifth pick counters are actually being countered in reverse."

"Although Camille can easily beat Renekton later on, she really can't win the early laning phase."

"But as long as we can drag it out in the early stage, by the mid-term and beyond, Shen won't be afraid of Crocodile so much."

After the draft phase ended, before shaking hands with Coach McGee, Clearlove also gave a pep talk to all the players.

After both sides exchanged their heroes with their respective users, the lineups were revealed to everyone.

DRX's top laner is Renekton, jungler is Graves, mid laner is Akali, and bot lane consists of Ashe and Pantheon.

EDG's top laner is Camille, jungler is Kindred, mid laner is Syndra, and bot lane consists of Draven and Thresh.

Taking advantage of the lull between the two sides in the game, Colonel Guan began his usual analysis.

"Actually, both teams had pretty good lineups, but DRX clearly had more tempo points, while EDG focused more on the bottom lane."

"And most importantly, if Flandre's Camille develops smoothly, he can put a lot of pressure on his opponents in split pushing."

"Because DRX doesn't have any true split-push heroes, in the later stages, no one can out-push Camille in a one-on-one situation."

"In other words, EDG needs to defend against DRX's offensive rhythm as much as possible in the early game!"

"As long as the game drags on past 25 minutes, with Flandre's Camille's split-pushing ability, it won't be difficult for EDG to win the match."

"..."
