Chapter 90 The Dragon Ball's Show of Force!

"Wow! Here it comes!"

"My God! EDG really picked Vayne!" exclaimed excitedly.

The online comments section is exploding.

"what?"

"They dare to pick Vayne? Is K really that confident?!"

"This Vayne pick seems too risky. With such short range, she's going to get completely destroyed by Pray against Varus!"

"Why did you, a rookie AD carry, pick Vayne in the semifinals? Did you report this to my Uzi?!"

"piglet: Dog bastards, are you sure this isn't a report from a bathing dog?"

"..."

In the RNG training room, when the RNG players saw this hero, they all turned to look at Uzi.

Although Uzi doesn't have a championship skin now, he's still the first person that comes to mind for LPL viewers when Vayne is mentioned.

After all, he pulled off a famous flanking kill in Season 3. Although it was just a simple in-game kill, the marketing accounts still love to hype it up.

The damage was dealt by his teammates, and the kill was secured by Uzi.

After checking the results, I saw that my little dog had won again!
On the EDG player bench, Wang Yao remained expressionless.

The suggestion to select Vayne was actually made by Vayne himself.

Originally, Coach Nofe's plan was to pick Kog'Maw as the best AD carry, but Longzhu had anticipated this and banned Kog'Maw in advance.

Since EDG has chosen to charge into the fray and initiate a team fight, they might as well go all the way!
Vayne is someone who can coordinate with teammates to charge into the fray and forcefully kill squishy heroes in the back.

As expected, just as EDG did, Longzhu picked Gragas as their last pick.

Picking Gragas this time is still to defend against the enemy's strong team fight initiation!

At this moment, the final lineups for both sides have been determined.

Blue side EDG, top laner Trundle, jungler Jarvan IV, mid laner Ryze, bot lane duo Vayne and Rakan!

The red team consists of Dragon Ball, with Cho'Gath in the top lane, Gragas in the jungle, Galio in the mid lane, and Varus and Lulu in the bottom lane.

"EDG's lineup... I think it's a bit too over-the-top, but you can also see that EDG's players are really confident after playing this far!"

I remember feeling a bit conflicted.

Firstly, he felt that EDG's drive was a good thing, but he was also worried that EDG would pay the price for their "confidence," leading to a breakdown in their morale in the upcoming matches.

Secondly... the risk of picking Vayne is just too great. It's only the first game, there's no need to go all out like this!
"Kshine is under a lot of pressure in the bot lane this game. Varus has the advantage of long range, and he's paired with Lulu as support."

It's worth noting that Varus's initial attack range in the bottom lane is only 575 yards, second only to Caitlyn's 650 yards and Ashe's 600 yards!
With his Q skill and E skill's various poke abilities, Varus can be considered a Tier 1 champion in the current version of the bot lane.

As for Vayne... she's okay against hard supports in lane, but she doesn't quite shine when paired with enchanter supports.

A support like Rakan, who's a mix of hard and soft champions, can work well with Vayne, but he's not as strong as the enemy's two powerful champions.

Therefore, Wang Yao will face tremendous laning pressure in the bottom lane this game, and he absolutely cannot afford to lose the lane!

At the same time, he also needs to play a huge role in team fights. He cannot be invisible during team fights, so that he can help the team win this game!

This means that Wang Yao has shouldered the entire burden of the game's outcome on his own shoulders!
"EDG can't afford to make any mistakes in the early game... Let's see how they plan to handle this."

The match footage quickly appeared on the screen as the broadcast switched. The Longzhu players grouped together from the start, clearly intending to invade EDG's jungle!
"It has to be the LZ team's players! They played very aggressively from the start, after all, we have the advantage in this game!"

The LCK commentator, Roaring Emperor, was very excited, saying, "This Dragon Ball lineup is extremely strong in level 1 team fights!"

If the crowd control abilities of the three tanky mages—Gragas, Galio, and Cho'Gath—are chained together, they can keep someone standing still for at least 5 seconds!

On EDG's side, the Trundle and Jarvan IV aren't very strong in level 1 team fights and can't mount an effective counterattack.

Therefore, in order to prevent the opponent from invading their jungle, EDG set up a long, straight line formation at the start of the game to guard the entrance to their own jungle.

However, if Longzhu really wants to invade EDG's jungle, then they can only swallow their anger and try their best to avoid it.

After all, EDG simply doesn't have the qualifications to go head-to-head with Longzhu at level one. If they don't want to be crushed by the opponent at level one, they have to leave.

On EDG's side, Meiko's Rakan saw the Dragon Ball crew charging aggressively from the narrow opening next to F6.

Because the two were still quite far apart, Meiko didn't use W to create distance immediately, but instead turned around and walked straight back.

But it seemed like Longzhu wanted to give EDG a hard time, with GorillA's Lulu first using W to speed up Gragas.

Immediately afterwards, Cuzz's Gragas used an E-Flash to collide with Rakan at the absolute limit.

At the same time, Khan's Cho'Gath stepped on the ground and followed up with his Q skill, while Galio instantly learned his W skill, slowly moving forward while charging up Durand's Shield.

Just as Luo landed, he connected with his teammate's crowd control!
Meiko didn't even have a chance to use any of her skills.

Pray, the Rat King, spotted Rat's low health and unleashed a double Aatrox, securing the kill on Rat!
Firstblood!

The first blood of the game was drawn.

Meiko's head was taken by Varus.

In an instant, the cold, impersonal announcement was like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the surging, enthusiastic cheers in the stadium!

All the LPL viewers at the scene stared blankly at the broadcast screen, their throats feeling like they had a fishbone stuck in them, unable to utter a sound.

The LCK commentator, Roaring Emperor, was extremely excited. He slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed, "Nice! Cuzz's Gragas E-flash was very decisive, helping the team secure the first blood!"

Meiko looked a little confused on the EDG player bench.

He really didn't expect that the enemy Lulu would actually learn W at level 1 to speed up Gragas, and even neglect the bot lane laning phase to kill him, the support!

BDD's Galio was also terrible. Galio is not easy to play against Ryze, and this guy even learned W at level 1. He was probably going to get crushed in lane by the junior!

Who are these people on the other side...?

"This kind of start is dangerous for EDG. If Pray gets the kill bounty, Vayne will have an even harder time in lane."

I remember finding it hard to hide the disappointment in my words.

"There's nothing we can do, this Dragon Ball play was just too decisive. But the good news is that Lulu learned W at level 1, so the early laning phase in the bot lane will be a bit more comfortable."

"Also, LZ's Galio in the mid lane also learned the W skill, which will make Ryze's laning phase more comfortable. Hopefully, EDG can capitalize on these two small advantages..."

Colonel Guan shook his head with a wry smile.

The excitement of LPL viewers when Vayne was picked is now matched by their current heartache.

Pray and GorillA, this legendary duo, are the strongest bot lane duo among the three LCK teams!

This summer, the Xuanming duo displayed terrifying dominance, even surpassing Bang and Wolf.

Now that things have come to this, they can only place their hopes on Wang Yao in the bottom lane and pray that his Vayne can create a miracle!
