LOL: I just turned 18, let me fight back and be reborn

Chapter 308 One person drives the progress of the global competition! Who is right after all?
Congratulations on your V5!

Guan Zeyuan shouted: "Two to zero, sweeping away the winning streak of Top Esports, and continuing to dominate the top spot in the regular season!"

"As the MSI champions in the middle of the year, V5 is a very rare team that was almost completely unaffected by the version fluctuations! Their speed in integrating and developing with the version exceeded everyone's expectations!"

"Of course, both teams brought us a lot of surprises today, not only in the development of two marksman heroes in the mid lane, but also in the appearance of super unpopular heroes such as Samira and Darius. Both sides are demonstrating what the 'hundred flowers bloom' global ban/pick version is all about!"

I remember his tone was full of emotion, still savoring how quickly the game ended: "V5's games are so efficient, the speed at which they snowball their advantage is truly astonishing!"

"However, Top Esports is not a team that can endure loneliness. In fact, when they are at a disadvantage, they will make rash moves and often speed up the game for no reason."

"But to be fair, perhaps because of the painful defeat at last year's World Championship, Top Esports has changed its top, mid, and jungle players twice this year, except for the bot lane. The team's style has also changed repeatedly, and you can see that they still want to improve."

[The best scenario is that Top Esports wins while Wei throws the game; a mediocre scenario is that Wei throws the game away; the worst scenario is that Top Esports loses while Wei tries his best—as a Top Esports fan, I'm already satisfied with a mediocre ending!]

[The Biluochun tea is still being sold, don't be too hateful in chasing and killing it, even if your team is about to change its third generation, it won't work! Still blaming the jungler!]

[This game can't be blamed on the jungler?! I'm asking you, didn't he ruin the top lane in the first game?! Didn't he ruin the bot lane in the second game?! Speak up!]

[I think it's just a change in name only; if this team's discipline and terrible decision-making don't improve, replacing them won't help!]

[Sigh, Vietnam. The US and Vietnam fought for 30 years and haven't recovered, Cambodia and Vietnam fought for 40 years and haven't recovered, Thailand and Vietnam fought for 50 years and haven't recovered. Even someone as strong as my invincible Top Esports! It's really hard for him to recover from fighting Vietnam~]

So the question is, who is right?

Although I remembered that I had already put it very tactfully, it still sparked a heated discussion in the live stream.

Those who frequently watch the games know that Top Esports (TES) has never been a team that excels in strategic gameplay since it officially entered the public eye in S10.

Most of the time, they win by using labels such as "laning", "reckless", and "hard skill".

It is clear.

These descriptions together inevitably give people a sense of déjà vu with S8IG!

The reason why this impression persists despite numerous personnel changes is most likely because the team's core players have remained unchanged, and their playing style has continued in the same vein.
Of course, there have been successful cases before.

This approach is not without ways to break the deadlock.

Alternatively, they could max out the "Personnel Configuration" and create a top-tier laning lineup with "four lane advantages," completely replicating the peak IG of yesteryear.

If a team can establish a sufficient advantage during the laning phase, it can cover up the team's rough handling in the mid-to-late game—just like the peak IG team back then!
Top Esports did exactly that in previous seasons.

Unfortunately, with this lineup of 369, Left Hand, and JKL on the three flanks, there's always someone who either leaks information or goes invisible.
Therefore, the best result was reaching the semifinals in S10.

Even more so in last year's S12, due to the departure of top laner 369 and the decline in the performance of mid and bot laners, a battle in Vietnam that went down in history was directly left behind, completely igniting this hidden danger of the team!
So, it happened this year.

It's actually quite obvious that they've changed.

After parting ways with LeftHand and Zoom, the team brought in Xiaohu and Breath during the Spring Split, aiming to add more "teamwork" and "operational" attributes to the team.

Unfortunately, the Spring Split has already proven that they can't use this style of play!

The team, especially the team's leader, has extremely poor discipline. In addition, neither Breath nor Xiaohu are players who play the role of the leader. Instead, they have put all the burden of output on the absolute core.

They're more likely to die suddenly!

Therefore, during the mid-season spring transfer window, when faced with trade requests from both WBG and LNG, the TES management decisively agreed to make a trade involving the mid and top laners.

Bringing Rookie and the Gragas duo back and switching back to their preferred playstyle is like returning to their comfort zone.

Then there's Wei's job application report—in which he stated that his strength was "commanding"!
Joining with zero base salary is certainly not the only reason.

The real reason is that TES wants to try to supplement a capability that they have "never had before"!

But the effect...
When the V5 members arrived at the players' seats to shake hands, Wei, who was standing on the edge of the table, still looked somewhat lost and dejected after shaking hands with Huang.

"Wei! Stand up! Shake hands!" Big Yellow, who looks just like the deceased anchor, shouted to wake him up.

Wei was startled by what he heard and hurriedly stood up, staggering, fearing that he would be accused of "not shaking hands" again.

In fact, you can see a player's personality from various small details.

To be honest, Wei does have some command ability.

However, the main premise is that you must be comfortable playing, without pressure interfering with your mindset, and no one can compete with you for it.

Once the pressure mounts, it's easy to lose sight of both ends, and even cause operational errors.

There are quite a few players like this. Meiko, for example, struggles to balance both command and micro-management, which is purely a matter of talent.

As for his ability to withstand pressure, it's hard to say that it will be difficult to improve in the short term. We can only hope that he can learn some personality traits from his teammates.
"Amazing, amazing."

After exchanging fist bumps with Ye Bo, Rookie sincerely praised him, then gave a helpless wry smile: "Sigh, now the mid laner will have to practice a few more weird heroes. Ni's hero pool is too strange."

Based on previous experience.

Unless a master designer intervenes in time, Ye Bo's matches can easily popularize certain playstyles and heroes.

This is something that has caused considerable distress for many "traditional" players.

"It's not difficult at all. Feel free to contact me on WeChat anytime if you have any questions~~" Ye Bo extended a friendly invitation to communicate.

"Really?"

Rookie flashed a smile that resembled Qiao Biluo's.

Everyone knows the news from last week that Faker from next door asked Ye Bo for advice on Tristana.

There's nothing shameful about asking someone for advice!
Jack, who was standing next to Ye Bo, leaned over and seemed to have quickly adjusted his mindset. He was even joking with Ye Bo in a self-deprecating way.

"Damn, Chen Zebin is really thrilled now. I can already imagine what he's going to say."

Ye Bo replied with some confusion, "They didn't win either, so what's there to be happy about?"

"You don't understand, do you? Your own failure is painful, but the failure of others is enough to instantly erase the pain!"

"Oh well, talking to a genius like you about this won't make any difference to you."

When Ye Bo heard Jack, who was known to outsiders as a 'genius boy,' call him that, he simply shrugged and didn't give a reply.

V5 members came to the center of the stage and bowed in greeting.

They were once again greeted with a thunderous roar of cheers from the home crowd!
Ye Bo returned to his seat to pack up his peripherals and received a notification for a post-match interview.

Before Ye Bo could even speak, Xun naturally took over the responsibility of carrying the human backpack, diligently taking the keyboard and mouse back to the backstage area, leaving Ye Bo standing alone at the entrance of the passageway.

The MVP selection results are being displayed on the live stream screen.

Unsurprisingly, he saw his official photo on television again.

The shirtless Verus in the background of the photo, with his scarlet crossbow in his hand, instantly evokes the terrifying scene just now.

Group tour participation rate: 77%
Team output accounted for 35.5%.
Counter-economic difference +3285
Battle casualty ratio 7/0/11
To be fair, none of the data points are particularly explosive—at least compared to Ye Bo's previous outrageous data.

However, the voting results below still show Ye Bo as the unanimous MVP! The reason is that Ye Bo's contributions to the team are numerous and cannot be reflected in the statistics.

For example, both games featured five bans on mid-lane champions, both games saw the opposing team's lineup suppressed due to the restriction of picking mid-lane champions instead of banning them, and both games contained incredibly memorable and unforgettable moments.

Especially Varus's "A Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart" attack!
Although Ye Bo had practiced many times, this was also the first time he had achieved such a perfect result, and his excitement was no less than that of outsiders.

At this moment, Ye Bo just wanted to rush backstage to see the excitement on the forum.
The host, Liu Hang, strode back onto the stage.

After a brief opening, we got straight to the point.

"Let's start with Master Ye's new interpretation today!"

"So, why were mid-lane Kai'Sa and mid-lane Varus picked today? I watched the commentators' analysis, and it seems that neither of these matchups is an 'advantageous' matchup."

Ye Bo hasn't started replying yet.

Sun Yalong in the second round of the live stream couldn't help but chime in: "I'm guessing! Liu Hang is going to explode like this right from the start? What is he implying!"

Sika reacted incredibly quickly: "Is this implying that even with a hero counter, Rookie can't win?! I'm skeptical!"

The child next to him looked like he was about to cry, but couldn't say anything.

She could only look at Ye Bo on the screen with teary eyes.

"Actually, Rookie played very well in lane and put a lot of pressure on me. It's probably just that I'm not familiar enough with the laning phase of these two champions, and I had the advantage of information asymmetry."

"As for why I chose these two heroes, the first reason is the Statikk Shiv."

Ye Bo briefly explained his understanding.

On one hand, both of these heroes are popular ADCs in the current version, allowing for a lot of flexibility or banning options during the draft phase, which is already quite valuable.

On the other hand, we have to talk about the theory of "crocodile content in the lineup".

Ye Bo didn't hide anything about this.

After all, the current version is in a very turbulent period, and the next version may be completely different; it is constantly changing.

Similar styles have been developed by players like Maokai, while styles like Tabe's, which haven't been developed yet, will likely be familiar to most players after watching these two matches.

In short: ADC heroes naturally have an advantage in small-scale battles. Their basic attacks are their strongest sustained damage output, making them natural fighters—provided they are not in the bottom lane.

One important aspect of AP Varus is that it eliminates the common problem of AD Varus.

After all, AD poke damage is inconsistent, lacks mobility, and is relatively weak against tanks. Varus with Statikk Shiv as his AP or hybrid build perfectly makes up for this weakness!
"Speaking of the idea of ​​AP Varus, I wonder if everyone remembers last year's finals. It should be the second game in the upper river. When I played Sylas, I felt that AP Varus should be pretty strong."

The live chat was instantly flooded with responses, all reminiscing.

Even Xika and Sun Yalong, two big idiots, felt enlightened after hearing Ye Bo's explanation of the version and started a heated debate.

Only one person's focus is completely elsewhere.

"See?! I told you Rookie really did his best! Even Master Ip said so!!!"

"And Master Ye also said that it wasn't that Rookie couldn't win in lane despite having an advantage, it was just a matter of information gap! He hasn't played much mid-lane ADC!"

"That doesn't count!"

After finishing his sentence, the child muttered as if resigned to his fate, "But Rookie has to avoid his sharp edge now. It's a pity, if only Rookie were ten years younger."

[Ge Yan actually admitted that broiler chickens are no longer viable? How utterly unfilial!]

[Wow, Master Ip has now completely evolved into the grandfather of this filial child! This is what you call earning the child's recognition of his lineage through sheer skill!]

[Grandpa Ye, Xiao Hai, Chicken Dad, and Sunbathing Mom—the two lonely, widowed elderly people next door who run barbecue stalls are living a miserable life]

[On this day, DYS went to see the movie "Investiture of the Gods" as a group. Sun Yalong saw the nine-tailed fox Daji and shouted, "Holy crap, Pan Hui!" But the child Youshen next to him said, "I feel that this fox is not as good as Rookie's fox."]

[After hearing Master Ye say that, I feel like the "Electric Knife Alliance" might be making a comeback?]

Liu Hang, who was on stage, also asked a similar question.

"The 'Electrosurgical Knife Alliance' depends on the designer's future plans."

Based on Ye Bo's understanding of the designers, this version of the electric knife is definitely not the final version; it will most likely undergo major changes in the next version.

So he really didn't say anything against his conscience.

Ye Bo felt that others were likely to sense this as well, which was why they hadn't explored it. He had indeed taken advantage of the information gap.

Of course, everyone can see it.

It's definitely not just a matter of information asymmetry regarding heroes!
"So, could you explain those amazing plays by Kai'Sa and Varus, Master Ye? The commentators have been discussing that a lot!"

Liu Hang's eyes revealed an intense curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

"Well, actually the release principle of Kai'Sa's 'High-Altitude W' is not difficult; it's just a matter of the League of Legends perspective."

"As we all know, Summoner's Rift actually has a Z-axis, but we can't see it because of the locked camera. However, if the launch point is at the top of the Z-axis of the knock-up, that effect will naturally occur."

"But actually, the real difficulty here lies in controlling the distance between Kaisa and the Blast Fruit, as well as fine-tuning the timing of W, to achieve the effect of 'controlling the launch point of W,' which will directly change the launch direction of W."

"Because Kaisa's W has a casting time, and her basic attack also has a projectile time, whether you're in the 'center' or the 'edge' of the Blast Fruit, whether you use W immediately after the attack or W the instant you take off, even a difference of a fraction of a second can make a significant difference."

[Where is it, as everyone knows?]

[If we're not really friends, why do you tell everyone everything? And you actually teach them?!]

[Truly, no need for extra salt! Let me state my opinion for today: Chef Ye single-handedly propelled the global competition forward! The flavor is overwhelming!!!]

[Although it's a bit of a mix, it's actually quite similar! Everyone else tries to hide their research as if it were something secret, but Master Ye will actually teach you if you just ask!]

[Wrong! Actually, this is all YE's scheme—he knows he'll use up his stuff soon and deliberately reveals it to waste your training time, since he still has plenty more stuff in his pants! He's playing dirty tricks!!!]

"As for Varus, that's a bit complicated. Let's all look forward to our post-match video~~"

Ye Bo skillfully maintained a proper balance, avoiding turning the post-match interview into his own live broadcast.

Having satisfied his request, Liu Hang quickly asked the final question he had prepared.

"Finally, I wonder if Master Ye has noticed that a few days ago, after T1 defeated DK in the LCK, Faker called out to you in his post-match interview."

"So, is there anything you'd like to say to the other person as well?"

Ye Bo was watching the live stream that day, so he naturally knew what the other person was referring to.

He smiled, picked up the microphone, and said a few casual words.

After a brief delay.

The live stream was filled with 【???】 and 【Explosive】.
