LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

The other players on both sides were a little awkward as they were not familiar with each other.

The other members of G2 are not as enthusiastic as Perkz, and they were completely brought here by Perkz.

Perkz continued: "Brother Mozi, are you going to play today? You won't wait until we're 2-0, that would be boring."

Hearing this, everyone in G2 was stunned, as if they were frightened by Perkz's remarks.

Other teams would rather Su Mo not play, but Perkz did the opposite.

Su Mo said, "Okay, I'll go early then."

Perkz smiled and said, "Which lane are you going to play?"

The factory manager stepped forward to stop him: "This is our team's secret, you will know when the time comes."

Perkz nodded: "Well, I was going to say, Brother Mozi, come to the bottom lane and fight with me, but it seems there is no chance."

Su Mo agreed directly: "No problem, I don't think there is any problem at all."

"Huh? Really?" Perkz was overjoyed.

"Really." Su Mo's attitude was very firm.

Since Perkz insisted that he go to the bottom lane, then let him fight and see who is afraid of who.

"Great! Oh! I have a chance to defeat Brother Mozi head-on!" Perkz was so happy, as if he had won the game.

After entering the venue, the two teams parted ways and the EDG players entered the lounge.

The factory manager found Su Mo and said, "You don't have to be serious with him. Even if you play other lanes, he can't say anything."

Su Mo smiled: "You have so little confidence in me? Do you think I can't beat him in the bottom lane?"

The factory manager defended himself: "That's not the case. I'm mainly worried that you'll be fooled."

Su Mo replied: "It's okay, just watch carefully."

Su Mo looked at Meiko and said, "Tian Ye, let's have some fun today and break the opponent's bottom lane mentality."

Upon hearing this, Tian Ye rubbed his hands together: "If you want to say this, then I won't be sleepy anymore."

After a while, the time was almost up, and Abu urged: "Get ready to play, perform well, and show our EDG's best!"

On the other side, at the commentary booth during the game.

Wang Duoduo commented: "Dear audience, welcome to the 2019 League of Legends World Championship!"

Remember to answer, "Today is the first BO5 of the quarterfinals, with EDG, the No. 2 seed from the LPL region, facing G, the No. seed from the LEC region. This is also our old friend."

Rita agreed: "Indeed, G2 is a regular at the World Championship and we can see them every year."

"This year's G2 is known as the strongest G2 in history. They defeated T1 at MSI and were tied with GRF in the group stage, which is enough to show how strong they are."

Rita was stunned for a moment, then continued, "I received news from the front that EDG has confirmed the starting lineup! Mozi will play, and he chooses to play in the bottom lane!"

At this time in the backstage channel.

The starting players of G2 and EDG are waiting to take the stage.

Perkz glanced towards EDG and was stunned.

Su Mo waved towards Perkz and smiled: "Perkz, I'm here."

Perkz pretended to be calm: "Okay, in this case, it seems I need to come up with something real."

Su Mo smiled mysteriously, giving enough pressure.

Now he can’t tell Perkz how to play.

At this moment, the host's voice came: "Let's welcome the No. 1 seed from the LPL region, EDG!"

So Abu brought all the EDG players onto the stage!
The EDG fans at the scene immediately became excited:

"EDG! EDG! EDG!"

"Brother Mozi! I'm your fan!"

"Ahhhh! Brother Mozi is finally here!"

"Brother Mozi, look here! Look here!"

Su Mo hadn't played in a game for a long time, so the audience was extremely excited to see him.

The five EDG players stood on the stage, and then the five starting players of G2 came on stage.

They shook hands in the middle of the stage, turned around, walked to their respective seats, sat down and began to adjust the equipment.

During this time, interview clips of the players from both sides began to be played.

The first one is Perkz. After all, he is a local player, so we must give him some face.

Perkz said: "Mo is a player I like very much. Although everyone says he is unbeatable, I still hope to play against him in the bottom lane."

"This way everyone will understand that Mo is not invincible, he just hasn't met me yet."

The most outrageous thing is that Perkz said this without blushing or feeling nervous, as if it were true.

The comments in the official live broadcast room went crazy:
"I don't know who got kicked to death by Mozi like a dog at MSI."

"How dare you be so arrogant? He only has a seven-second memory, right? Has he forgotten how he was abused before?"

"The wound has healed and he has forgotten the pain. This time he will definitely explode."

"Brother Mozi, don't give me face, beat me to death!"

Then Su Mo appeared and said:
"I think G2 is a very interesting team. Although they haven't achieved any results, the World Championship cannot be without G2, otherwise it will lack a lot of fun."

These are Su Mo's heartfelt words. It would definitely be a pity if G2 were not seen in the S game one day.

At the same time, players from both sides were ready and entered the BP stage of the first game.

In this game, EDG is on the blue side and G2 is on the red side.

BAN position situation:
EDG: Xia, Kaisa, Syndra

G2: Akali, Leblanc, Jarvan
Wang Duoduo began to analyze: "G2 targeted EDG's mid and jungle very much, banning two assassins and a team-opening hero, while EDG mainly targeted the bottom lane and Perkz's hero pool."

"Of course, we can discuss who Sindra is targeting, or we can consider it a two-birds-with-one-stone move."

Entering the hero selection stage, EDG on the blue side got the Tristana on the first floor.

I remember analyzing it: "Tristana? This hero has been used in both the mid and bottom lanes, so he can be used swayingly. I guess he hasn't decided which lane to go in yet, so we need to wait and see."

G2 got Qiyana and Gangplank on the first and second floors.

Rita commented: "Qiana is also a swing hero, she can play in the middle lane or in the jungle. At present, Qiyana's win rate in the jungle is a little higher."

EDG got Shen and Yuumi on the second and third floors.

Wang Duoduo was surprised: "Wait a minute, who is this cat chosen for? Tristana? Tristana and the cat seem to be a playstyle, so Shen should be the top laner."

"Now it depends on what ADC position is chosen. In the late game, it is more common for the big core ADC to bring cats."

G2 got the barrel on the third floor and entered the second round of BP.

G2 banned Lucian and Great Inventor.

EDG banned Angel and Gnar.

Rita was suspicious: "Is this Great Inventor intended to prevent Mozi from using it to attack the bottom lane? But I personally feel that it is unlikely. G2 is thinking too much." EDG locked Garen and Karthus on the fourth and fifth floors.

The audience was shocked!

Wang Duoduo exclaimed: "What? Might of Demacia, Garen, and Deathsinger? Am I seeing right? These are really the heroes chosen by EDG?"

"Garen is the mid laner? He's not that perverted, right?"

I remember shaking my head: "I don't understand it either. This lineup is really weird and unpopular."

"I can only say that this is Mozi. Once Mozi is on the court, you will see EDG's lineups are all kinds of weird."

EDG got Yasuo on the fifth floor.

Rita analyzed: "Gragas and Yasuo, this is the bottom lane combination that G2 has used before, and their laning and teamfighting abilities are quite good."

"The most important thing is that Perkz used to play mid lane, and he plays mid lane heroes well."

Both sides began to adjust their respective laning situations. The situation did not develop as most people imagined, but no one dared to be sure whether EDG was throwing a smoke bomb.

Soon, the lineup was determined:
Blue side EDG: Top laner Shen, Jungle Karthus, Mid laner Tristana, ADC Galen, Support Cat

Red side G2: Top Gangplank, Jungle Qiyana, Mid Ryze, ADC Yasuo, Support Gragas

Seeing this lineup, Wang Duoduo began to doubt his life: "Garen Cat goes to the bottom lane? No... this... is it too advanced? This is not a routine we can understand now."

I remember analyzing it: "In my understanding, Cat needs to be paired with a big core output hero, or a very flexible offensive hero."

"At least one of the two should be very strong, but Garen... seems to have neither."

Rita has a different opinion: "But I think there may be a third way to play Cat, that is, Cat is the core and let him do damage."

"If you consider it from this perspective, then the cat needs a qualified mount that can withstand damage and can run. Although Garen has no displacement, his resilience is very high, and it is difficult for you to control him to death."

As the three were talking, they entered the game screen.

On the EDG side, Jiejie began to set the pace: "In this game, we will focus on the bottom lane, and the top laner should be careful to develop."

Ray responded: "No problem."

Scout said: "I have no pressure in the middle lane, no need to come, I will push the line and support you."

After Su Mo went out, he went straight to the lower jungle area and stood guard.

The director gave both sides information about the summoner skills and talents of ten heroes.

Rita interpreted: "Garen has Flash and TP, while Cat has Ignite and Heal, and didn't choose to bring Weakness. I thought he would bring a Weakness."

"There are no problems with the summoner skills of other positions. The mid and top positions all use flash TP, and the jungler all uses flash smite."

Su Mo chose to take the cat to the river.

The director gave a close-up of the two people.

Wang Duoduo explained: "It seems like these two are planning to do something bad, but none of their teammates have come over, so they are probably not planning to invade."

Su Mo approached the river wall and placed a ward, which happened to be in the triangle grass below the red side.

Rita analyzed: "This ward position is very extreme. Many professional supports often fail when trying to establish this vision, but Mozi succeeded in one go. I can only say that this is talent."

I remembered smiling and said, "Brother Mozi was also a good support player before, so there is no need to doubt his professionalism."

After getting good vision, the two continued to walk towards the opposite jungle area and soon encountered the opposite Yasuo and Gragas.

The cat sent out a slacking missile and hit the target, triggering the salary equipment and making money.

The G2 duo thought it was an invasion and retreated immediately.

It turned out that Su Mo made money and left.

Soon, the first wave of wild monsters refreshed, and Su Mo appeared again with the cat.

The opposing Gragas chose to come up to obstruct and cover the jungler. Yuumi threw out a fishing missile to continue making money and cooperated with the comet to hit it.

Su Mo left again.

Wang Duoduo smiled and said, "I feel like Brother Mozi is very relaxed right now. He is really playing games, not competing in a competition."

Su Mo did not return to the line directly, but ambushed in the river.

Sure enough, after helping to open up the jungle, Yasuo and Gragas walked downstairs and were seen by the vision.

Yuumi fired another slacking missile to deplete Yasuo's health.

Although he suffered a loss, it did not prevent Perkz from showing a G2 icon, making it seem like he made some profit.

Rita smiled and said, "This is Perkz, the patriarch of the Optimist family."

Su Mo then returned to the line and started fighting.

In the early laning phase, you just need to let the cat consume the enemy's energy.

Wang Duoduo commented: "I can see now that this team is mainly focused on attrition in the lane, but there is a problem. Yasuo has a passive. As long as he keeps moving around to refresh his passive, Garen won't be able to rush up and break the shield."

"Wouldn't the cat's skill damage be offset by the passive shield?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yasuo's passive skill came into play. However, Su Mo didn't need to go up, he just needed to pretend to get closer and shorten the distance.

The cat got off him, used a basic attack to activate Yasuo's passive skill, then got back on the car and continued to use the Q skill to consume the enemy.

Wang Duoduo was embarrassed: "I forgot that cats can get off the car to pick people up. Mine."

Rita teased: "Don't you often see the cat that won't come down from the ADC, not helping to counterattack or block skills?"

Wang Duoduo replied: "Indeed, most of the cats I met in the random games were used for AFK."

The game continued, and the bottom lane reached level three. Perk had an idea. Gragas and Yasuo approached Su Mo together, seemingly wanting to take action.

Meiko's cat got off the car and used a basic attack to knock out Yasuo's passive. After Yasuo approached, Su Mo chose to use the E skill to turn around and deal damage, while Yasuo used the wind wall to block the cat's Q skill.

Gragas used his Q to slow down Su Mo, but the soldiers blocked his way and he couldn't use his E skill. Su Mo decisively used his Q to speed up and rushed forward, getting close to Yasuo and pretending to attack.

The wine barrel was full of anger, but Su Mo turned around and the two passed each other.

I remember exclaiming: "Garen is so flexible. He saw through all the tricks of Gragas. And I found that Garen is indeed easier to control."

"He just needs to use his E skill and keep moving. If he focuses on his positioning, he can deal enough damage."

Wang Duoduo continued, "Besides, Garen's passive health recovery speed is very fast. If it is just a wave of consumption, it will be quite comfortable for Garen and the cat."

Six minutes into the game, the score was still zero to zero.

Jiejie's Karthus was farming the jungle like crazy. His current goal was to reach level 6 as soon as possible. Nothing else mattered.

In the top lane, although the top laners on both sides often exchanged blood, they could not achieve a consensus.

In the middle lane, the game mainly involves pushing the troops against each other, but the laning in the bottom lane is very intense.

Now Yasuo's health has dropped below half, while Su Mo's health is recovering quickly and will soon be full.

Rita analyzed: "G2 couldn't win the bottom lane, Yasuo was exhausted, and the most important thing was that they couldn't kill him in one wave. Garen was too tanky and they couldn't kill him in one wave."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yasuo and Gragas rushed up again to fight. Su Mo used his E skill to fight back, and used the damage reduction effect of his W skill to restrain the opponent's burst.

In the end, both sides hit 2 boards each, and the gap widened, but Su Mo could recover health, but Yasuo couldn't, so the G bottom lane duo had to go back first. (End of this chapter)
