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

Chapter 633 Choosing Neeko was the right decision! Dr. K is still working on research!
"Congratulations to EDG! Thanks to the outstanding performance of Thresh and Draven in the bot lane, they won this crucial match!"

When DRX's main base crystal was wiped out of health by JackeyLove's Draven's axe, DRX's base crystal was destroyed.

Remember's excited voice rang out from the LPL commentary booth.

The cheers from the entire audience were like waves, one after another.

"The bot lane played absolutely perfectly this game, especially Kshine's Thresh. His performance perfectly validated what the designer once said: Thresh is one of the most perfect champions he has ever designed."

"To be honest, Yao really played exceptionally well this game, but it feels like playing support is a waste of his talent."

"..."

At this time, the MVP of this game also appeared on the big screen.

It was Ah Shui's Draven whose super-luxurious record stood out so much that Wang Yao's Thresh record was rather miserable in comparison.

If you don't watch the game process and only look at the results, many people would probably think that Draven in the bottom lane was training with weights and fighting three people alone with a burden.

"The MVP goes to Jack La Dancing's Draven. He didn't die once in this round and his damage was the highest in the game. His performance was really good."

"Actually, I think it would be appropriate to give the MVP to Kshine's Thresh. Although his stats weren't great, he did everything Thresh could do in this game."

"However, it's hard to say that support players have the same impressive track record as other positions."

"And he died many times just now, all in place of Ah Shui. Otherwise, it might have been Draven who died."

"There's no way around it, that's how support players are; they have to sacrifice themselves for the AD carry when necessary."

It would have been better if he hadn't said those words, because as soon as he did, everyone in the live stream started tagging Baolan.

After all, there was a time in a game where Baolan played a Braum who held up his shield and hid behind the AD carry, which was just too damn abstract.

at the same time.

After finishing the match and taking off their headphones, they got up and walked towards the back.

They won the second game, and only one game remains to advance.

Back in the break room, Abu and the factory manager immediately showered everyone with compliments, practically wanting to kiss them on the spot.

"There's only one game left now, so let's treat this last game as a best-of-one, a game that decides everything!"

"Show the same tenacity you had in the group stage and take it all in one fell swoop."

After everyone sat down, Abu started giving the contestants some toxic motivational speeches again.

now!

Inside the DRX's temporary lounge, Coach Myco spoke as he wrote in his notebook.

"We have to hold down the opponent's bottom lane!"

Because in the game EDG just won, the bottom lane had a huge advantage!
The first game's Twitch + Ezreal combination was a given, but the second game's Thresh + Draven combination was so aggressive that it created a clear gap in the bot lane.

This is a bit unacceptable!

Next to Myco, Chovy and the others also looked somber.

They've been pushed to the brink of elimination by EDG, going down 0-2. If they get swept 0-3, then Chaowei will be getting a lesson from Wang Yao for the third consecutive year.

Definitely Yao Yi'er!
Suddenly, the DRX players felt the pressure mounting.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that none of them spoke, Brother Mai asked another question.

"Well, we must hold down their bottom lane!"

Mycroft's suggestion was approved by Chovy.

"Their mid and top lanes are actually quite weak. As long as we keep their bottom lane under control, we can open up the game from the mid and top lanes."

"As for the jungler, he can't play a significant role if the bottom lane is quiet."

Pyosik's voice was confident.

It wasn't that he thought Jiejie was bad; it was just that as a jungler, he knew all too well that a jungler's performance depended on their lane teammates.

With EDG's strong bot lane under pressure and their mid and top lanes not performing well, their jungler naturally has to shut down.

"Then it's settled!"

Brother Mai closed his notebook and began his classic "poisonous chicken soup" segment.

"At this stage of the competition, I hope you won't put too much pressure on yourselves. As long as you can show your true strength, the championship will be ours!"

soon.

The third game between the two sides began.

As the players from both teams entered the arena, amidst cheers from the audience, the background music for the third game's draft phase resounded throughout the entire venue.

This brought the atmosphere on the scene to a new level!
From the first game to this crucial final game, the two teams about to determine the winner continue to captivate the hearts of everyone following the match.

"EDG come on!!!"

"Ice Emperor, you absolutely must stand up for yourself in the last game and not make a mistake. If you win, I promise I won't criticize you until you lose the next game!"

"My brother, are you so real?"

"Brother Yao must win four consecutive championships!"

"DRX, charge!"

"..."

The live stream chat was buzzing with excitement, and the big screen showed the two teams of players sitting down.

It can be seen that after putting on the headphones, Ah Shui never stopped talking. No one knew what he was saying, and the smile on his face never stopped for a moment.

Although the audience didn't understand what they were talking about, judging from the performance of the EDG players, their mentality was probably not affected.

On the other side, the DRX players appeared quite calm, and their emotions were not affected by the fact that this was a do-or-die game.

Having your best and most perfect teammate by your side is your greatest confidence!

"Welcome everyone to continue watching the quarterfinals of the 2020 League of Legends World Championship, the match between EDG and DRX."

"After two hard-fought games, the score is now 2-0."

"EDG is just one step away from advancing to the next round!"

"It's clear that the EDG players are maintaining a good mindset. They all seem relaxed and haven't been affected by the intense competition."

"Yes, the closer you get to this stage of the competition, the less you need to rush and the more you need to keep your composure."

"To be honest, now that both sides have reached the third game, it's a test of who makes fewer mistakes and who can capitalize on the opponent's mistakes."

"So you must maintain this mindset!"

"Although it's only been a short time since the end of the second set, I believe it has felt incredibly long to the audience!"

As the voice of the university president was heard, the draft phase of the crucial game between the two teams appeared on the big screen.

When the screen showed the first round of bans for the two teams in the third game, Guan Daxiao habitually spoke up.

"Alright, the third game has now started. EDG is on the blue side and has the ability to pick first, while DRX is on the red side and has the final counter pick."

"We can see that EDG banned Nidalee right from the start!"

Since they had already discussed it in the backstage lounge, this time Brother Mai focused his banning efforts on the bottom lane.

He felt that as long as EDG's bot lane was shut down, their mid and top lanes wouldn't be able to cause any significant trouble.

So I started by pressing down on the big head in a very targeted manner.

"Heimerdinger has been banned again. DRX is really targeting EDG's bot lane!"

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but sigh.

"But this is also good. If the support role is banned, it will give EDG more options for heroes in other lanes."

Rita, who was standing nearby, said.

The first round of bans for both sides ended quickly. After banning Nidalee, EDG still banned Chovy's Twisted Fate, not wanting him to get it, and also banned his Orianna.

In the top lane, you can just use Ornn to resist pressure, but that doesn’t work for the middle lane. The middle lane position has too much influence and you absolutely cannot mess around with it.

EDG targeted Chovy, while DRX continued to target the bot lane, banning Heimerdinger and then Draven and Senna.

"Wow, DRX used all three of their first bans on EDG's bot lane!"

Seeing this targeted scene, Colonel Guan couldn't help but sigh.

"But Ashe has been released, should EDG try to pick her?"

"If we pick him, Kshine can play support. He has already shown us how powerful Ashe support is during MSI and the LPL Summer Split."

"But if Ashe is locked in, DRX might be able to steal Varus instead."

"That's okay. If she's robbed, Ashe can also play AD, or assist another AD hero, such as... Miss Fortune?"

Rita and Remember were chatting away when they saw EDG reveal their first pick.

"Oh! Let Jiejie snatch Qianjue first."

"Jiejie played Kindred quite well in the last game, and his touch was also quite hot. It shouldn't be a problem to pick him first."

Seeing that EDG had picked Kindred, Coach Mai asked Keria and Deft about it.

"Are we going to take Frost Varus?"

Keria thought for a moment, then spoke:

"Hmm... let's take the Ice Flame first, and then see if they break up this combination."

"If we dismantle it, we can use Ashe as an AD carry; if not, we'll see how things go." "Alright!"

Mycroft didn't waste any words.

They locked onto Ashe and then gave Pyosik a Graves.

Although Pyosik's Graves wasn't particularly loud in the last game, you can't entirely blame him.

After all, who knew that the two people in the bottom lane, especially Thresh, were like they were full of energy, and with the first blood Draven, they actually went two against three.

"DRX picked Ashe, should EDG try to steal Varus instead?"

"If we don't take it, DRX might actually pull off a surprise attack and learn a trick in the last game!"

"Because these two bot lane duos are really strong in lane, and they also have very safe team fight initiation capabilities."

While Rita was speculating, EDG was also discussing the matter.

This is a crucial game, and there's no room for carelessness!
After some discussion, EDG ultimately decided to give JackeyLove Varus instead of taking the risk.

After locking in Varus, the third pick was Kennen for Flandre, which can be considered a way of picking instead of banning.

Seeing that Varus was ultimately picked by EDG, Coach Mai hesitated for a moment.

Ultimately, for the third pick, Keria was given a Titan to increase their team's initiation capabilities, since Titan poses a significant threat to heroes without mobility.

After both sides finalized their first three picks, the second round of banning began immediately.

After some thought, EDG targeted Doran and then banned Chovy's Azir.

Later on, if Titan hits someone with his ultimate and Ashe follows up with crowd control, Jiejie Kindred will definitely have to use her ultimate to protect them.

At that time, the Tsar might have looked for an opportunity to use the drainage ditch to turn the corner and push the people back.

On the other hand, DRX banned Wang Yao's pentakill with Pyke at MSI this year, fearing that if he got it, he would coordinate with Kennen to clean up the remaining enemies.

Even in their final move, DRX still ignored Scout's Syndra, who was still outside, giving the impression that they were fearless.

Clearly, they didn't take Scout seriously.

After the second round of bans, DRX picked Camille for Doran in the top lane as their fourth pick, leaving the final counter pick for Chovy.

"Camille might have a slightly tough time against Kennen at first, but it will be much easier after she gets Mercury's Treads."

"Moreover, I think DRX picked Camille probably as a precaution in case they didn't play well earlier in the game."

"If we don't play well then, we can still use Camille's split push to create some pressure."

"This is similar to EDG's strategy in the last game. I just don't know how EDG will respond. At least for now, they don't have a point that can go head-to-head with Camille."

While Guan Daxiao was speaking, EDG, after discussing it, had already revealed Scout's hero for this game.

I'm not planning to give him Syndra anymore, because to be frank, he played Syndra quite poorly in the last game. Against Akali, who is so weak in the mid lane, he couldn't even keep up with the opponent's CS.

"Nightmare? Nightmare isn't bad, anyway, in this game, Flandre's Kennen in the top lane has already made up for the AP damage."

"If you pick Nightmare in the mid lane, you can use your ultimate to support your teammates when facing Camille's split push, so you don't get solo killed by Camille."

Rita smiled slightly.

During EDG's voice chat, Clearlove asked Wang Yao a question.

"Old Wang, what support role are you going to play?"

"Um……"

Wang Yao's gaze slowly swept over the heroes on the computer screen, then he glanced at DRX's lineup, and finally moved the mouse pointer to the hero he wanted to use.

Click to confirm!

next second.

On the big screen, the EDG fifth floor's avatar frame flashed, and the hero was confirmed and presented to everyone's eyes.

"Choose Neeko!!"

"Niko?"

This Neeko is driving the CPU of the big shot crazy, because I've never seen this thing used as a support before.

Could it be Neeko in the mid lane?!

No, Nightmare support is even more abstract!

"Neeko support! In this decisive game of the quarterfinals, Kshine has once again brought out a champion that has never appeared in the support role before!"

I remember being very excited.

The fact that they can come up with something new shows that EDG still has something to offer and is not at their wits' end.

At this moment, the online comments section exploded.

"Brother Yao really dares to make that choice! If they lose, no matter how hard he tried before, he'll have to take the blame this time!"

"Here it comes! Dr. K's research is back!"

"This variety of assists is definitely our bronze-level gameplay!"

"2-0 is the final score, so you're going to start doing research now, right?"

"If we win, Yao-ge will become Dr. Yao!"

Not only were the viewers in the live stream amazed, but the moment a Neeko was locked on, the DRX members also felt their blood pressure rising.

It really proves that everything can be used as a supplement, right?

After glancing at EDG's lineup, DRX revealed Syndra in the fifth pick.

Syndra is also one of Chovy's signature champions and the champion he trusts the most. Whenever it comes to a life-or-death moment, he chooses Syndra.

However, at the last minute, DRX made a change. After discussing it with Chovy, they gave him a Sylas.

This way, EDG can steal the ultimate abilities of all five heroes, and each ability will have some effect.

"Wow, DRX's last Sylas pick was pretty good!"

Colonel Guan couldn't help but sigh.

Meanwhile, on EDG's side, Clearlove looked at Wang Yao's locked Neeko, opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, he didn't utter a sound.

The competition has come to this point, we can only trust the players.

Before going to the center of the stage to fist bump with Mycroft, he reached out and patted Wang Yao on the shoulder, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Old Wang, it's up to you this time!
As the fist-bumping between the coaches ended, both sides exchanged the heroes to their respective users.

The lineups for both sides were thus determined.

EDG's top laner is Kennen, jungler is Kindred, mid laner is Nocturne, and bot lane consists of Varus and Neeko.

DRX's top laner is Camille, jungler is Graves, mid laner is Sylas, and bot laner is Ashe and Nautilus.

LPL commentary booth.

"Well, it feels like both teams have their own strengths. If DRX drags this out, Camille's split push will be very difficult to deal with, even though EDG deliberately picked Nocturne in the mid lane to counter her."

"But I believe everyone knows Camille; she has the ability to take on two opponents at once."

"I think the most important thing is DRX's fifth pick, Sylas. It was such a great pick. He could steal EDG's ultimates one by one, and they were all useful!"

With Rita and Guan Daxiao providing their explanations, both teams of players had already entered the game.

"Let's begin the third game. Regardless of who wins or loses, we thank both teams for bringing us such a wonderful match!"

Upon entering the game, Wang Yao, as always, quickly purchased equipment and immediately left the fountain.

Since it was match point, both sides played very steadily, maintaining their defensive positions and not thinking about anything else.

At level one, both sides were at peace. However, when Wang Yao and Ah Shui arrived at the bottom lane, they called on the other side to prepare to secure level two and suppress them, while also helping the jungler more. Unexpectedly, an accident still occurred.

The moment the two players met, Ah Shui's Varus was hooked by Keria's Titan!

"Hey? Jack La Dancing is hooked!"

A sudden scene on the field made Ji De instinctively shout out.

Seeing that Ah Shui could actually be hooked, Wang Yao was dumbfounded.

Goodness, JKL's persona is absolutely solid!

The moment Keria hooked Varus, he didn't hesitate and immediately used Ignite on Nautilus, while Deft also started dealing damage with Ashe.

"DRX's bot lane is playing very aggressively, but fortunately JackeyLove brought Cleanse, which allowed him to immediately break free from crowd control and retreat, allowing Kshine's Neeko to counter-attack with a combo."

"But the Titan's rune is Aftershock, which makes him quite tanky after hooking someone, and if the support and AD trade blows, DRX will definitely come out slightly ahead."

"That's what Colonel Guan said."

The viewers in the live stream were also getting a little anxious. Despite the criticism, they certainly hoped that EDG could advance to the next round.

"No, can the Ice Emperor be seduced?"

"No way, he really has no resistance to the Q skill."

"Damn it, someone must have tipped off DRX. We're doomed, guys."

"Bro, you absolutely have to hold back. Just finish this game, and then you can unleash your true nature. Wait, there are still two more best-of-five series to go!"

"In the No Q Challenge, Jack La Dancing contestant scored a good score of one second. You can try it too."

"Take Q Dirty Dancing and get out of the queue!!!"
