LOL: The world’s best red-temperature mid laner!

TES's five players grouped up and pushed forward, with the minion wave reaching WBG's mid-lane tower.

Senna tried to whittle down the turret's health, but the opposing team had a lot of champions who could initiate team fights.

Leona, Sejuani, Varus, and even Yone can all use their ultimate abilities to initiate.

So when they saw Senna go up to attack the tower, the commentators were worried for her:

"Senna is quite daring; she still dares to go up and attack the tower in this situation."

"If this position is controlled, his teammates definitely won't be able to protect him."

However, WBG's mid-lane tower had already lost a significant amount of health.

With their health points almost depleted, WBG has decided to abandon their defense.

The minion wave reached the mid-lane second tower, and TES used the same tactic again, trying to whittle down the mid-lane second tower.

However, WBG's defensive attitude was much more resolute this time.

The Japanese woman stepped forward to exert pressure, seemingly about to start a fight.

Meiko cautioned, "Be careful, it's the Sun Maiden's ultimate move."

Ah Shui pulled back and forth, trying to bait out the Sun Maiden's ultimate move.

Liu Qingsong was not fooled.

However, just as the Japanese girl and Sena were pulling back and forth.

Lu Yi's Cassiopeia saw an opportunity and chose to throw out her Q skill, hitting Leona.

The Japanese woman subconsciously activated her W skill.

This is the opportunity! Without W, Leona isn't tanky!

Wait a moment, just as the Japanese woman's W was about to disappear, Lü Yi suddenly commanded:
"We can attack, give them crowd control!"

Suddenly, Xiaotian made a move, using his E skill to control Leona.

Lü Yi followed up with his Q skill, Twin Venomous Fangs!

Senna used her crowd control ability, and Nautilus unleashed his ultimate.

Miller commented, "Is this an attempt to instantly kill Leona? Cassiopeia deals a lot of damage, and Leona doesn't have her W ability."

"The Leona used her ultimate to slow down the Cassiopeia, but failed to control her! The Cassiopeia is still dealing damage."

There was no other way but for the rest of WBG to come up and rescue them.

TES now has the Baron buff, so if Leona is killed, it will be very difficult for the four of them to defend.

So Sejuani unleashed her ultimate skill, and Lü Yi's Cassiopeia was caught off guard!

However, he threw out a W skill before being controlled.

Seeing the snake woman being controlled, Xiao Hu was incredibly excited.

Yone uses his E skill followed by his ultimate...

However, the ultimate skill couldn't be used immediately!

Rita exclaimed, "What is Xiaohu doing? He's standing on Cassiopeia's W, and he hasn't used his ultimate!"

"The same goes for the crocodile. Even though Cassiopeia is controlled, he can't use his E skill to come in and fight, which is very frustrating!"

The crocodile and Yone finally managed to get out of Cassiopeia's W range, but Xiaotian's Zyra flashed in and used her ultimate to control four people!
At this point, the crowd control effects on the snake woman disappeared, so continue attacking!

The commentator said, "Is this also a bait? Cassiopeia starts the chase, taking down Leona first. Jax enters the fray to hold them in place, and Nautilus' hook hits Sejuani. WBG is about to collapse!"

[TES, GodYi (Cassiopeia) has defeated WBG, Crisp (Leona)!!!]

The team fight turned into a one-sided massacre. WBG used their first wave of crowd control, but failed to follow up with damage. Now they have no skills left and are completely unable to fight back.

Lu Yi's Cassiopeia unleashed her full power, and even Sejuani and Renekton couldn't withstand her damage.

[TES, GodYi (Cassiopeia) has killed WBG, Tarzan (Wrath of the North)!!!]

Once the front line is taken down, the subsequent team fights become much easier.

Lü Yi flashed in and used his W skill, preventing Varus and Yone from having a chance to flash away.

Xiaohu's Yone wanted to turn around and use his ultimate, but found that he had been hit by Cassiopeia's W skill again, so he couldn't use his ultimate.

"I can't unleash my ultimate move!" Little Tiger put on the mask of pain.

[TES, Jackeylove (Soul Cleansing Spear) has defeated WBG, Xiaohu (Demon Sealing Sword Soul)!!!]

[TES, Tian (Zhin of Thorns) has killed WBG, Light (Archer of Retribution)!!!]

Miller commented, "It feels like he's about to be wiped out. Although he survived, he can't hold on by himself."

“We previously said that if WBG could drag the match into a fifth game, they would have a great chance, but it seems that’s impossible now.”

Rita laughed and said, "I feel like we're overthinking it. When facing Top Esports, we should first consider how to win a game. Only after solving this problem can we think about what comes next."

After TES won the team fight, they ended the game in one fell swoop.

After the match, the TES team returned to the rest room.

Xiao Tian joked, "Now we shouldn't have to worry about getting buffed by WBG, right? Disband the breathing, kill the familiar tiger."

Meiko laughed and said, "It's probably not very likely. Even a buff wouldn't help in this situation. How could they win three games in a row with a buff? Usually, this kind of buff can only help them win the most crucial game."

Xiao Tian replied, "Then I'm relieved."

As expected, WBG did not perform at an exceptional level after the start of the third match.

They were easily defeated by TES.

TES defeated WBG 3-0 and advanced to the finals!
The next day, another semi-final began.

BLG vs. LNG.

BLG easily won 3-0 in the end.

TES's opponent in the finals has been determined: BLG!

Inside the meeting room, the TES members were discussing the finals after watching the match.

Warhorse greeted, "Now that our opponent has been confirmed, it's BLG. You should be quite familiar with them."

"Everyone is welcome to share their thoughts, and we can discuss them together."

Meiko then said, "We feel a lot of pressure in the bot lane, right, Wenbo?"

"BLG's bot lane is skilled, On has a lot of ideas, and ELK plays very aggressively."

Ah Shui seemed relatively calm: "It's alright. BLG's bot lane is quite aggressive. They can seize opportunities, but they also give away opportunities."

Xiao Tian asked, "Are you confident? Will they seize the opportunity, or will they seize the opportunity?"

Ah Shui shrugged: "I'm fine with either way. Whether you want us to play aggressively in the bottom lane or just focus on farming, I don't mind."

Xiao Tian laughed: "If you can still win, then it's definitely better to be more aggressive, right? If we can get a kill in the bottom lane, it'll be easy for us."

Meiko countered, "What if the enemy jungler mindlessly ganks the bottom lane? Xun likes to use this tactic; he and On synergize quite a bit."

Xiao Tian replied, "I'll help you counter-gank in the bottom lane. I'll go to the enemy jungle to find their jungler. Don't worry."

Meiko then said, "Then we have no problem. Although BLG's bot lane is very strong, we're still no match for them, right, Wenbo?"

Ah Shui simply nodded.

Warhorse looked at 369: "On the top lane, Bin is in good shape right now, are you okay?"

369 feigned composure: "Ah Bin, I know him too well, you can hit him however you want."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over.

Lü Yi found it unbelievable: "So confident? 69, I didn't see that coming."

Ah Shui teased, "You're not faking it, are you? You struggled so much when you were breathing, but now you're suddenly so confident when you're hitting Ah Bin."

369 replied, "I didn't say we were going to crush him. Just focus on developing our character, that's fine. Don't we have Yi Shen?"

Xiao Tian rolled his eyes: "So you just want to win by doing nothing after all this time? Then why are you bragging so much? I thought you were going to dominate the top lane and carry the game."

Warhorse summarized: "Overall, we are stronger in terms of overall strength, but to beat BLG, we must first stabilize our laning phase."

"As long as we can stabilize all three lines, and BLG's operational level is not good, then we will have many opportunities."

"By the way, BLG might have some special strategies planned. Let's keep an eye on them and be ready to counter them."

That was settled, and we'll focus on training against BLG for the next few days. A few days later, at the LPL match venue...

The TES team got out of the car and prepared to enter the venue.

The weather was nice today, with clear skies and a lively atmosphere as spectators entered the venue on the other side.

"Wow, there are so many people here, no wonder it's the finals," Meiko exclaimed.

Just then, everyone heard a commotion and saw a bus speeding towards them.

The car has the BLG team logo on it.

"The BLG people are here," Xiaotian reminded them.

The bus began to slow down and stopped behind the TES team.

The car door opened, and a slightly chubby "boy" carrying a bag got out of the car.

Bin, BLG's starting top laner.

"Ah Bin," Xiao Tian called out.

Bin glanced at Xiao Tian, ​​nodded, and looked very cold.

Lü Yi laughed: "Is Ah Bin putting on an act today? Cold-blooded Bin?"

Meiko joked, "That's how Abin is, he's doing cosplay every day."

Immediately afterwards, Zuo Shou, On, Xun, and ELK all got out of the car.

The two groups of people came together.

"Master Yi," Xun greeted him first.

Lü Yi joked, "You're not targeting the mid lane today, are you? Going to gank the mid lane like crazy?"

Xun laughed: "Impossible, Yi Shen is so hard to catch, wouldn't this be a waste of time?"

"Really?" Lü Yi asked skeptically.

Xun patted his chest and assured him, "Really, I really don't plan to go to the middle lane, you can trust me."

Xiao Tian said, "Looks like I have to go counter-gank in the mid lane. You should take that kind of talk the other way around."

Nakano and Ueno are quite familiar with each other, and 369 and Bin have also teamed up.

However, Bin was cold and didn't want to talk much today, so 369 didn't say anything either.

Meiko and On had a great chat, even discussing going on a trip together after the finals.

The most notable examples were Ah Shui and ELK, who didn't even greet each other and completely ignored each other.

Upon entering the competition venue, the two teams parted ways.

Upon entering the lounge, Lü Yi put down her bag, sat down, and took out her phone to check the current online buzz.

[Is there even a need to watch Top Esports' games? I'll wake up to another victory.]

BLG has improved a lot recently; they seem to have the potential to challenge Top Esports.

[Don't joke around, it's not that simple. Last time someone said WBG had a chance.]

I think as long as Left Hand is in good form and can hold the mid lane, BLG has the advantage against the remaining four players.

[You think you can just hold on like that? Is it that simple?]

Fans on both sides are engaged in a heated debate, each defending their own team.

BLG is indeed very strong right now.

If you remove TES, BLG's current lineup is the strongest team in the LPL.

Although he wasn't the strongest in every position, he was generally in the top three.

Like TES, BLG is a team without any obvious weaknesses; every player's performance is on point.

At the match venue, in the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan announced: "Welcome to the finals of the 2024 League of Legends Pro League! Today's match is between TES and BLG!"

Wang Duoduo chimed in, "Both teams are in great form right now. Top Esports acquired 369 in the Spring Split, and after a few months of adjustment, he's now integrated into the team."

"BLG has strengthened its mid-lane position by adding Knight. Knight is probably the strongest domestic mid-laner right now, besides Yi Shen. This will make BLG's all-Chinese team a showdown between two all-Chinese teams."

Rita commented, "Hopefully, both BLG and Top Esports can perform well. Both teams have already secured their spots in the World Championship, so now they only need to focus on winning the title."

On stage, the host took the stage, gave a brief opening speech, and then invited both teams to participate.

"Let's welcome BLG's top laner, Bin!"

Bin walked up from backstage, and there were quite a few fans in the audience: "Brother Bin, the best top laner in the LPL!"

"Go, Bin! Go, Bin!"

"Brother Bin, I'm your fan!"

"Brother Bin, you're invincible!"

Next up is jungler Xun, then mid laner Knight, and so on.

The data for each person is displayed on the large screen.

BLG's stats look pretty good for everyone; they're basically all in the top three.

After all five BLG players took the stage, it was TES's turn:
"Now, let's give a warm round of applause to welcome TES's top laner, 369!"

369 has arrived, his face always bearing an expression he can't quite keep up, a half-smile.

"Jungler, Tian!"

Xiao Tian's appearance brought the atmosphere to its first climax.

"Mid laner, GodYi!"

The moment Lü Yi appeared on stage, the audience erupted in cheers:
"Yishen! Yishen! Yishen!"

Apart from cheers, no other sounds could be heard.

“ADC, Jackeylove.”

"Support, Meiko."

After the five TES players came on stage, the two teams stood face to face in the middle of the stage and shook hands.

Lu Yi faced Zuo Shou again. Zuo Shou was still the same as before, unsmiling and very serious.

After shaking hands, Lü Yi turned and walked to his seat, put on his headphones, and everything was ready!
The first draft phase has begun. In this match, TES is on the blue side and BLG is on the red side.

Ban status:
TES: Maokai, Kindred, Rumble

BLG: Tristana, Lucian, Yone.

Guan Zeyuan began his analysis: "BLG is targeting the mid lane, and all three of their mid laners are AD carries. Neither side has a BANAP jungle carry in this game, so BLG's strategy is sound."

"AP jungle carry definitely needs to be paired with AD mid laner, but I'm curious what they'll pick themselves."

Wang Duoduo chimed in, "I think Xun isn't really suited to this version. Aside from Kindred, he usually plays tempo junglers."

"Actually, his Kindred is also focused on tempo rather than farming and developing. The advantage of AP jungle carries in this version is mainly their fast jungle clearing speed, so it doesn't suit his playstyle."

Entering the hero selection phase.

TES, on the blue side, picked Ryze on the first floor.

Wang Duoduo commented, "It's strange. Ryze isn't strong in this version because there are too many carries in the mid lane."

"Although Ryze's late-game damage output is very strong, his range is short, which is not enough against the current mid-lane carries."

Rita agreed, "Indeed, but I think Yi Shen is probably mainly concerned about the early game tempo."

“We all know that BLG likes to play fast-paced games, using their strong individual skills to gain an advantage in the laning phase and then quickly snowball to end the game. This is their usual style of play, and Yi Shen may be trying to take advantage of this.”

BLG got Sejuani and Quesanti on the second and third floors.

Wang Duoduo commented, "As expected, they didn't pick an AP jungler, but instead chose Sejuani. That puts pressure on the mid laner, ZuoShou, who needs to pick a champion that can carry the game."

TES locked down Kaisa on the second and third floors.

Guan Zeyuan was slightly excited: "Here it comes, my brother's Kai'Sa! I feel like he'll be using the championship skin, the skin bonus! This isn't fair!"

BLG obtained Ice and Luo on the third floor.

Guan Zeyuan exclaimed, "Wow, ELK is aiming for a strong laning phase. Ashe needs to gain a significant advantage during the laning phase, otherwise she won't be able to compete with Kai'Sa in team fights." (End of Chapter)
