LOL: What is a concept player?

Chapter 178 Break the rules? My rules are the rules. If you can't afford to lose, don't play!

In an instant, the entire competition hall was like thunder, with all kinds of cheers constantly echoing. The sound waves turned into a tide that continuously surged towards Chu Ran and others in the competition seats!

"Fuck! EDG is awesome!"

"God Chu is awesome!"

"We EDG are invincible!"

...

The LPL audience at the scene kept waving their glow sticks and cheering signs, shouting wildly with red faces and excitedly. The atmosphere was as hot as Uzi's bath water.

Countless people were in tears. After three years, LPL once again entered the finals of the S game, and this time it was still at the Bird's Nest.

Many LPL fans who love League of Legends are venting their grievances of the past few years at this moment, even if their voices are hoarse.

They only do three things now.

cheer!

cheer!

What's more, cheering!
Before the game started, many people were predicting whether EDG could make it into the top four, and some were saying that EDG would bring surprises to audiences around the world.

It turns out this is a surprise!
The barrage of comments in the live broadcast rooms of major events continued to surge, causing the live broadcast rooms to become stuck.

【Five Koreas are not okay! 】

[Five Chinese can't win, but three can win, and no matter how many Koreans there are, they can't win in front of Chu Shen! ]

[Chu Shen is awesome! Too exaggerated, this is Chu Shen! ]

[The No. 1 seed of LCK is not as good as the No. 1 seed of LPL! 】

[EDG made it to the quarterfinals by luck, EDG was in the semifinals in disgrace, EDG was the runner-up with difficulty! EDG barely won the championship! ]

[No, EDG made it to the quarterfinals at most, and actually broke through to the semifinals, damn, EDG made it to the finals, EDG gave a championship speech! ]

[Now let's shout out loud - Heizi! Chatterbox! ]

...

As the comments were heatedly discussed, several LZ members on the stage slumped in their seats with dull eyes, staring at the word "failure" in front of them with disbelief.

At this moment, every detail of this summer quickly emerged in everyone's mind.

From being broken and then rebuilt to becoming the biggest dark horse of LCK, no one believed that LZ could beat KT at the beginning, and no one was optimistic that they could defeat SKT.

But no one was optimistic about them, but they were the most competitive. They defeated the three-time champion SKT in the summer finals and became the No. 1 seed of LCK and came to the stage of the S game under countless astonished eyes.

At that moment, Bdd and others felt that they were the destined ones and the chosen ones of God.

The two Xuanming Elders are extremely confident. They came to this stage again this year as the number one seed.

When they first appeared on the stage, the two of them only had one opponent they cared about, and that was SKT in the S game.

The two were full of enthusiasm, thinking that since they had defeated SKT in the summer finals, then SKT in the S finals would be no problem at all.

But no one expected that since the group stage, EDG's performance has been astounding everyone, especially the man Chu Ran, who is absolutely stunning.

However, LZ was not afraid. Although EDG was indeed very strong, they were confident that if they really met EDG, they could easily defeat it!

Until today's semi-final, the 3-0 number on the big screen on the stage seemed extremely glaring.

All three games were massacred by EDG. They had no power to fight back at all, and there was no breakthrough in any of their five positions.

On the contrary, the man without the soul of the top laner completed the massacre of Khan. In the third game, it was because of this man that their LZ became the background board of a major event in the League of Legends World Championship.

Before, they were laughing at SSG being defeated by Linglong Tower, but now they can’t laugh anymore.

Because they are more shameful than SSG and have become the protagonists of the fastest game in the League of Legends World Finals so far.

But they were the ones being pushed.

Why is this happening?

The two Xuanming elders couldn't figure it out. They just felt extremely uncomfortable in their hearts. The huge grief and anger even made their eyes moist.

Looking back, I found that Bdd was lying on the competition seat crying, and Cuzz was grabbing his hair, staring at the screen with red eyes, completely unable to believe what he was seeing.

As for Khan, who vowed before the game to prove that he was the world's number one top laner.

At this moment, it was as if all his strength had been drained away, his eyes fixed on the screen without even blinking.

Looks alive, but has actually been dead for a long time.

Only those hands were shaking continuously, and Khan's mind was blank.

With his eyes closed, he could see Talon, Rengar, and Draven. He couldn't hear anything clearly because the lines of these heroes that drove Khan crazy lingered in his ears.

He really couldn't believe it. He could obviously defeat Semb and Huni, so why was he like a naive child in front of Chu Ran?

Khan had no power to fight back at all. He just felt his face burning and suffocating, and his heart was blocked and the feeling of nausea came over him again.

He...lost.

Moreover, the defeat was extremely humiliating, and it seemed that Chu Ran did not even use his full strength.

When I think about the explosive public opinion on the Korean Internet and my own pre-match statement.

Khan's breathing immediately became rapid.

It is really unknown whether he will still have a job next year. Maybe the LZ team will be defeated by Chu Ran.

Countless people had high hopes for the team, but they ultimately lost in the semi-finals, and it was an ugly loss.

Khan doesn't even dare to return to LCK. He went from being unknown in the beginning to shining brightly this year. It was thought that Khan's era had arrived.

As a result... As a result, Chu Ran shattered all his pride with one hand.

In an instant, Khan could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

After defeating many top laners, he was ultimately only qualified to face Chu Ran.

It's like a dream, unacceptable.

Khan raised his head and stared at the figure on the other side of the stage with his crystal clear eyes.

Although his stature was not very tall, in Khan's eyes it was like a towering mountain. The three matches shattered all his courage and made him dare not cross this mountain again.

Chu Ran was seen talking and laughing with his teammates calmly, which made Khan's expression even more complicated and he quickly wiped his eyes.

Chu Ran didn't seem very excited about winning the game.

Khan didn't want Chu Ran to see him like this when they shook hands later.

This made Khan's mouth very bitter. Defeating himself was not enough to make Chu Ran happy.

Maybe I didn't let Chu Ran have enough fun, or maybe Chu Ran's only goal from the beginning to the end was to win the championship.

"I'm so sorry I didn't let you have fun."

When Khan thought of this, his eyes, which had just stopped moistening, began to moisten again.

The two Xuanming elders also wanted to cry.

At this moment, both of them felt gloomy in their hearts. Last year, they staged a great battle with SKT in Madison Square Garden in New York, but ultimately lost.

Until now, that game has been called "the early S6 finals" and "the strongest BO5 in history" by countless netizens.

They were in the semi-finals last year and they are still in the semi-finals this year. Didn’t they participate in this World Championship in vain?
Xiba!

GorillA slammed the chair, clenched his teeth, and was very unwilling.

Pray next to him sighed and glanced at the EDG competition seat out of the corner of his eye.

He didn't look at Chu Ran, but instead cast his gaze on Deft and Mingkai.

“Are all these years of hard work finally going to bear fruit?”

"so good."

"But what about me?"

Pray shook his head. He was just like Master An back then. He was anxious when he saw the team was at a disadvantage before the game was over and wanted to beat his teammates to death.

But now that it was finally over, he suddenly felt relieved.

Thinking of this, he sighed, "Let's go, maybe we are not suitable for this stage."

"We exist only to set a stage for a certain team or a certain person, and then let this team or person prove that they are the strongest and most talented."

“We were never the protagonists.”

Pray smiled silently, looking a little tired.

GorillA was stunned and looked at Chu Ran who was surrounded by the crowd, his expression a little dazed.

The next second, he shook his head violently to dispel the fear in his mind. Things may change over time. Don’t look down on the young because they are poor.

Deft has been losing from S4 to S6, and Zvod has been losing badly since S2.

They never gave up, so he thought Pray shouldn't give up either.

"Don't be discouraged. In the script, everyone can be the protagonist. Come back next year!"

Pray twitched the corners of his mouth, and after a while he managed a smile to respond to GorillA, but his words and actions were inconsistent.

Come again next year?

Let’s talk about it then.

After this BO5 ended, he no longer had the energy to point his sword.

Immediately, the two of them went to comfort Khan and others.

While LZ's side was full of sadness, EDG's side was full of joy.

China-South Korea co-production is a double success.

"We won! We won again! Brother Kai, we broke the record again and secured the second place!"

Meiko was so excited that he danced with joy. For several years, he had made it to the quarterfinals every year and he even felt like he was cursed.

But this year, the curse was finally broken.

"How can you talk like that? Guaranteed champion! Can the runner-up be called an honor? Even a dog wouldn't want that."

"Brother Kai, the dog will want it. There are dogs on the Internet talking about the runner-up every day."

Hearing Chu Ran's words, Ming Kai and others were stunned, and then they burst into laughter.

"Xiaoran, I am really jealous of your talent." Mingkai did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Looking at the audience cheering for them, Mingkai felt mixed emotions.

After so many years, Mingkai finally got to step onto the S-card finals stage one day to compete for the championship he had always dreamed of.

Mingkai was afraid that he was dreaming, but he hit Meiko and found that Meiko cried out in pain.

He understood that all this was not a dream.

Looking at Chu Ran's figure, Ming Kai had a lot of feelings. He originally wanted Tong Yang to start.

Now it seems that I was lucky to fail.

"He Kui, look how excited Mingkai is. After all these years, he finally stands on the finals stage. How does it feel?"

After hearing what Pawn said, Deft took a deep breath and said calmly: "It's okay, there's nothing to be excited about. It won't be too late to be excited after winning the championship."

"If you're not excited, could you please move your foot away! You stepped on my foot when you were jumping just now!" Pawn roared.

"what?"

"My mine."

Deft smiled awkwardly and quickly moved his foot away, causing Pawn to feel some pain for a moment, but it was quickly covered up by excitement.

At this moment, all the cameras below the stage were focused on Chu Ran and others, with flashes and shutter sounds continuing.

Abu in the backstage lounge wanted to rush onto the stage and bite Chu Ran.

There’s nothing I can do, Chu Ran is just too awesome.

The explosive kills in three matches shocked the whole world.

The MVP of the third game naturally went to Chu Ran. Looking at the terrifying data, 15 kills without dying once, the highest damage and economy in the game, all these things made people's scalps tingle and made the cheers at the scene even more intense.

"Shit! How could this happen!"

In the LCK commentary booth, several people including the Roaring Emperor held their heads and howled, their crying voices continued to resound, making the countless Korean fans on the Korean Internet even more frustrated!

[Ah, bastard! Go to hell, drag the five of you away and shoot you all! Use RPGs to shoot you!]

[How much money did Khan and Cuzz receive from EDG? They ignored the spirit of e-sports just to make money! ]

[Really, I think this is their LPL home court. The beast Easy must have used some tricks, otherwise he wouldn't be so strong.]

[That's right, people like him are beasts, and he should be prohibited from using assassins, shooters and other heroes in the top lane. He completely broke the unspoken rules of the top lane and destroyed the ecological balance of the top lane! ]

[To be honest, if this Easy uses a warrior, it is uncertain whether he can defeat Khan. ]

...

Seeing him acting stubborn even after losing the game, many LPL players lurking on the Korean website were delighted.

[Ah, yes, yes, yes, you Koreans are soft in everything except your words. ]

[I am so tired of laughing. This is how the Universe Country is. We cannot afford to lose. 】

[If you can't afford to lose, don't play. Go back and feed the pigs. Got it?]

[Hahaha, so good! Open the champagne. Before the game, they called for a civil war in the Bird's Nest. Come on, have a civil war and show us.]

[It's still a civil war, SSG was defeated by Linglong Tower, LZ was defeated by speed pass, and SKT might not be able to defeat the Rabbit Team. 】【Everyone is happy! 】

...

Xiba!

Seeing the comments from LPL netizens, countless Korean fans were furious. When had their LCK ever suffered such humiliation?

then.

The voices cursing SSG and LZ became even louder.

At this moment, Han Xiaozi and GSL have disappeared collectively, and a large number of people have cancelled their online accounts.

As long as I cancel my account quickly enough, I won’t be liquidated.

Some people simply joined the liquidation team and directly attacked their own allies.

Just like Italy, if they shoot quickly, they will always be the winner.

Suddenly, the Internet was in turmoil, and at the competition seat, Chu Ran and others packed up and immediately walked towards the LZ competition seat.

"Shake hands. Don't make the other party wait too long, or they will be embarrassed to be in front of the camera."

"Brother Ran, you really deserve a beating, but I like it." Meiko winked.

When he came in front of LZ and others, his expressions were completely different from those of Chu Ran and his group. Especially when Khan saw Chu Ran, he remembered the three games and immediately began to feel nauseous again.

"Why, you don't want to see me so much?"

Xiba!

What do you say?
Khan cursed in his heart, wondering which top laner would want to see a beast like Chu Ran.

Oh, if it's at the dinner table, I would be willing to do so.

"I really don't want to see you again. I don't want to fight with you in the future." Khan said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, how can I do this? Failure is the mother of success. If you give up like this, you will never succeed in your life."

Chu Ran smiled and pointed at Ming Kai next to him, "He was beaten by Peanut last year, but he fought back this year."

Khan frowned, and suddenly felt that what Chu Ran said made some sense, and his eyes became eager.

"Next year, next year I will beat you."

"Ah, you misunderstood." Chu Ran spread his hands, "The success I mentioned means that you can achieve better results and break through yourself, not defeat me."

Chu Ran let go of his hand and grinned, "You're still a long way from it. If there's a chance, I hope you can let me use 70% of your strength next year."

"?"

Upon hearing this, Khan and the others' pupils dilated. It was only after Chu Ran shook hands and left that they finally reacted.

“Shit! What is this guy pretending to be!” GorillA was the first to get defensive. “Does that mean he only used less than 70% of his strength today? Damn basketball player, you are more pretentious than anything else!”

"What a jerk!" Khan was angry, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch Chu Ran and the others leave.

Inside the RNG club.

Uzi's face was flushed, he couldn't accept that EDG won. You know, the game just ended and there were already many comments about him on the Internet.

For example, "Jian Zihao, I'm already the runner-up, but there's still room for improvement. What about you? Why did you regress again?", "Who hasn't been the runner-up yet?", "Uzi, we said we would meet at the Bird's Nest, why don't I see you when I get here?", "Uzi, why don't you go to the Bird's Nest? Are you worried about getting stains on the championship trophy?" and so on.

After hearing these words, Uzi felt like a gas tank; the temperature was too high and it suddenly exploded.

But Xiaohu has to suffer the same fate.

Wood big wood big wood big!

Xiaohu was watching a live game when he felt a heart-wrenching pain in his thigh.

He is now enjoying the spicy hotpot next to him. If he were to fight to the death with Uzi, it would be like a slap in Uzi's face.

As for Mala Xiangguo, he was full of envy when he saw EDG's victory.

However, when he saw Uzi's defense breaking, he suddenly laughed out loud again.

"Liu Shiyu, are you laughing at me?"

"none of your business!"

"you!"

Uzi's eyes instantly widened, and his rosy little chubby face turned into a purple sweet potato. He was shaking with anger, and his breathing became rapid. At this moment, he just wanted to punch Mala Xiangguo.

But in the end, Uzi chose to vent his anger on Xiaohu. Seeing Chu Ran and his group bowing to the audience on their computer screen, Uzi snorted coldly with jealousy.

"It's just advancing to the finals. I thought they won the championship. SKT will definitely advance from the bottom half. Do these people really think EDG can beat SKT and win the championship?"

"The first LPL championship will definitely be our RNG."

"Hehe, you can fool your brothers, but don't fool yourself."

As soon as Uzi finished speaking, Mala Xiangguo added, otherwise Letme and Xiao Ming would stop him quickly, and a real-life PK between AD and jungler would be inevitable.

"Get him out! I don't want to see him again next year."

This is what Uzi said to manager San Shao.

The third young master raised his eyebrows, "No, I don't plan to let him leave."

Ever since the experience with Chu Ran, they are unwilling to let even RNG’s dog go.

Uzi got anxious when he heard this. He didn't let Mala Xiangguo go, which meant that he would be a substitute and watch the water dispenser.

The spicy hotpot must be even more arrogant, because it has been reduced to looking at the water dispenser and has nothing to fear.

By then, he would definitely be scolded by Mala Xiang Guo every day, but he had to maintain the glorious image of God and could not fight with Mala Xiang Guo.

In this way, he will be sick to death by the spicy hotpot.

Thinking of this, Uzi waved his hands and started to act like a child, "I don't care, it's either him or me. If he doesn't leave, then I'll leave. Besides, what does a lousy stock trader like him know about jungle?"

"If he hadn't made that last-minute save this year, I think we would have advanced to the semifinals, and then to the finals and won the championship at the Bird's Nest."

"You could say that he is one-third responsible for me not winning the championship this year!" Uzi said viciously.

The corner of San Shao's mouth twitched. He was not stupid, so he could naturally see why RNG lost to SKT.

But since Uzi is the face of RNG, there is nothing he can do but nod helplessly and say, "I'll think about it."

At this moment, Mala Xiang Guo didn't know that he might be free, and was happily browsing the comment section of EDG's Weibo post celebrating the victory.

After a while, he turned his gaze to the live broadcast screen again.

As the winner of three MVP games in the semi-finals, Chu Ran was already standing in the commentary booth with the host Xi Ran.

"Hello everyone, this is the post-match interview of the 2017 World Championship semi-finals. I am the host Xiran, and the player being interviewed is EDG's top laner Easy."

"First of all, congratulations to EDG for defeating LZ 3-0 and getting the ticket to the Bird's Nest. What do you think at this moment, Easy?"

Chu Ran picked up the microphone and greeted the audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room, then slowly said, "I don't have any special feelings."

"Not at all?" Xiran was surprised.

Chu Ran shook his head and said with a smile: "Really not. If I have to say one thing, it is that LZ is easier to beat than SSG. Their five Koreans are no match for SSG's five Koreans. The five Koreans are really no match."

The audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room were stunned for a moment, and then they shouted and cheered to the sky.

Only some Han Xiaozi and LZ fans who were still stubborn were gritting their teeth, looking at the young man in white who was chatting and laughing in the interview booth. They were so angry that their internal organs exploded and their back teeth were broken.

[Shit! What is this guy so arrogant about? Five Korea is not good enough! What championship can he and the noob LPL win? ]

[What qualifications does he have to judge SSG and LZ? He is not even good enough to be a five-Korean team. He is so proud of himself after winning against our LCK team a few times! ]

[This is a beast, talented but without moral integrity. I suggest you learn more from the e-sports spirit of the Korean people. ]

...

[I want to learn from you, how to pull out the network cable when you can't beat the Korean baseball game? ]

[Just a joke, South Korea has the spirit of e-sports. 】

[Han Xiaozi is really like a man who drives a sports car. His imagination is very open, and even the spirit of e-sports in the universe is revealed. ]

[If they lose this year, I’m afraid they’ll have to cut off the internet at home next year. ]

[Why? Because EDG and Chu Shen blasted away your Korean fathers. Khan's shockwave had only a few kills in three games, and Chu Shen killed 35! ]

[Stop talking, someone's defense will be broken if you keep talking. ]

...

Han Xiaozi and Han Bang stamped their feet in anger and could only watch in helpless fury as the interviews went by one after another. Chu Ran's words were all very confident.

"Okay, the last two questions. I would like to ask Easy, you picked the top laner of Yasuo and Rengar Draven today. Many people are saying that you broke the unspoken rules of the top lane in League of Legends games and the ecological balance. You used this hero to catch your opponent off guard. What do you think of this statement?"

Chu Ran raised an eyebrow, "Which heroes can't be used in the top lane according to the competition rules?"

"Uh, no." Xiran was stunned.

"That's it." Chu Ran's tone suddenly became high-pitched, and his powerful words rang out quietly.

"What do you mean I broke the rules? There is no such rule."

“My use of this hero in the top lane is completely in line with the rules of the game.”

"If the default unspoken rule for top lane used to be that warriors and tanks fight each other, then I think this unspoken rule should be changed. From now on, top lane will be based on my rules. As long as you are strong, you can play anything."

"Also, the rules are the rules. What are the hidden rules? If you can't afford to lose, don't play. If you're not good at it, practice more!"

As Chu Ran finished speaking, Xi Ran, who was standing beside him, was shocked to the point of being burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, and it took him a long time to recover.

The audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room were even more dumbfounded.

Ah this?

Such a settlement?

In an instant, there was thunderous applause, cheers and shouts, and it turned into a tsunami!

[6666! On the road, I, the God of Chu, have the final say. My rules are the rules. The king's contempt is the popular will. Is this clear? ]

[Who is the most crazy top laner in the league? China Guodian Chu Shenwang. 】

[If you are not good at it, practice more. You should also break the unspoken rules. The stubborn person has more excuses than the syphilis on his penis. ]

[Hahaha, if you can't afford to lose, don't play. What a waste! Han Xiaozi, Han Bang and GSL, get out! ]

...

Chu Ran's words once again made the already chaotic LPL even more lively. The domestic Korean filial son was beaten so badly that he ran away in panic, looking extremely embarrassed.

Staring closely at Chu Ran who was in high spirits in the interview seat, he was so angry that he could only hide again and wait for the next opportunity.

In the interview booth, Xiran also reacted, his eyes a little shocked.

"Oh, okay, then for the other semi-final tomorrow, SKT vs. MSF, which team do you hope will advance to the finals and meet your EDG at the Bird's Nest?"

"MSF." Chu Ran said without hesitation.

"Why?" Xiran asked in great surprise.

Logically speaking, defeating SKT and winning the championship should be the dream of countless LPL viewers and one of the goals pursued by many professional players.

"SKT is too weak. If they advance, the pressure may not be as great as MSF."

....
After Chu Ran said this, countless viewers were shocked, but after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with what Chu Ran said.

Has SKT beaten EDG this year?
They were beaten badly in two group matches, not to mention SKT's performance.

To beat RNG, you need to plan from the BP perspective, Faker Galio is one against nine.

Although the online abuse against RNG is very severe, careful people have discovered the problems with SKT. Someone even made a mourning picture of "Faker taking his four sons to play in the game."

From this point of view, SKT is not really that strong.

But it’s hard to say. After all, many viewers hoped that RNG could win, and at the very least they had to do something.

As a result, five Galios were played.

And...SKT's confidence!
But Chu Ran's words still inspired many people. Everyone's face was full of morale and excitement. Cheers and shouts continued to ring out, and the screen of the live broadcast room was filled with "666", which made the entire forum explode.

At the same time, in SKT training room.

After seeing the interview footage and hearing Chu Ran's words, Faker and the others fell silent.

A moment later, Huni saw the interview was over and immediately roared.

"Shit! This person really doesn't take us seriously!"

Wolf's eyes flashed with a cold light, "A momentary victory doesn't mean anything. Only the one who wins at the last moment is the ultimate winner."

"What do you think, Sang Hyuk?"

Faker pushed his glasses up on his nose. "He did beat SKT, but that wasn't the strongest SKT."

"If we advance to the finals, I will let him and LPL know that we, SKT, are still the mountain that will never be surpassed before them."

"That's right!" Kkoma clapped his hands. "After defeating RNG, our team has entered its best form. As long as we defeat MSF tomorrow, I believe that peak SKT will come to the Bird's Nest and deal a fatal blow to EDG."

Kkoma and Faker's words were very inspiring, which greatly boosted the confidence of Huni and others.

So far, SKT still maintains an undefeated record in the BO5 against LPL teams in the S League.

EDG is just a lucky runner-up. When they get to the Bird's Nest, they will shatter LPL's championship dream with their own hands!
