LOL: What is a concept player?

Chapter 179: King vs. King at the Bird's Nest, new rules for the finals for LPL netizens! The most promising year!
That night, the news that EDG defeated the LCK's No. 1 seed 3-0 in the semi-finals completely dominated the hot search charts on all platforms.

#EDG beat LZ 3-0! #
#LCK No. 1 seed is not as good as LPL No. 1 seed! #
#Top laner Chu God? NO! Top laner beast! Khan shed tears on the semi-final stage! #
#Rules are rules. If you can’t afford to lose, don’t play! #
Not only in China, but also in major competitions around the world, there has been a huge uproar, and countless League of Legends players are discussing this matter.

Chu Ran's reputation has once again gained some prominence in the minds of League of Legends players around the world.

And EDG.

There is no way. This year's EDG is too dazzling. They are only one BO5 away from completing the golden road of the Grand Slam within a year.

Moreover, this time, after a lapse of three years, the LPL team once again stood on the stage of the S-League finals, and it was the top of the Bird's Nest that the domestic audience longed for.

The popularity in the country exploded.

Scalpers really made a lot of money. The price of a ticket to the finals increased tenfold, but the demand still could not keep up with the supply.

Weibo, Tieba, Hupu, Bilibili and other major platforms were all dominated by hot searches about EDG's victory over LZ, and in an instant, many new and old players who had not watched the game were completely excited!

[WTF! EDG won? They made history again! ]

[Oh my god, Chu Shen is a real beast, Draven is on the top lane, he is a human! ]

[No, what kind of fake news? EDG can make it to the quarterfinals, and LPL can still make it to the finals? Didn't it all suck in S5? ]

[Ah, wow! The sword is really pointed at the Bird's Nest! ]

...

For a moment, the finals had not yet started, but the heat of the entire LPL quietly exploded.

Countless players who had quit the game returned one after another. Some players who had not paid attention to LPL for a long time were dumbfounded after seeing Chu Ran’s introduction and experience.

A common idea came into their minds.

So is Chu Ran really a human?
Soon after, nicknames related to Chu Ran such as "Chu God", "Chu Invincible", "Canyon Beast King" and so on were refreshed crazily, attracting the attention of countless people and making Chu Ran popular again. The number of followers on his Weibo is constantly increasing.

It is already comparable to the lowest-level first-tier domestic entertainment stars.

The competition has only ended for an hour or two. If the popularity continues long enough, Chu Ran will probably become a household name.

....
At this moment, in a restaurant on the streets of Shanghai.

Chu Ran and others were chatting and laughing while enjoying the celebratory banquet. They were very satisfied with the achievements made today.

"Brother Ran, who do you think will win between SKT and MSF tomorrow?" Meiko asked worriedly.

"What? You want MSF to win?"

"Of course." Meiko said excitedly, "Playing against MSF is definitely better than playing against SKT. Besides, you said you hope to face MSF even when we weren't interviewing?"

Hearing this, Chu Ran poured himself a bowl of mutton soup and smiled without saying anything. Ming Kai looked at Meiko with contempt.

"Is that Xiao Ran the little bastard showing off? Do you think he really doesn't want to win the championship by stepping on SKT?"

"Fuck! I hate you guys who are so pretentious." Meiko sighed, "I hope MSF can eliminate SKT tomorrow."

"Tian Ye, you are such a loser. You might as well let SKT advance. Wouldn't it be more fulfilling to defeat SKT and win the championship?"

"Don't you think so, Hercule?"

Deft nodded, "I think our middle school should have two champions."

"Shit!" Pawn was stunned when he heard that. Then he remembered that Deft and Faker went to the same middle school.

"SKT released a pre-match statement."

"What?" Chu Ran asked with a little interest.

"They said that SKT will protect the last glory of LCK and bring the trophy back to China from the Bird's Nest." Mingkai's eyes narrowed, "You little bastard, whoever dares to grab the championship trophy this time, I will end his life."

"Tsk, Brother Kai, other people have already taken away many of your trophies."

"Ah, no, that's not right. What do you mean by snatch? You have to take it with your own ability. If you lose in the final, I can learn Photoshop overnight and help you steal the championship trophy back."

"Hahaha."

As Chu Ran spoke, the whole restaurant was filled with a happy atmosphere.

After eating and drinking, Chu Ran and others returned to the club. Chu Ran originally planned to do a live broadcast.

However, when he opened the live broadcast room, he found that Uzi had started broadcasting again at some point.

When he clicked in, he found that Uzi was playing Rank and was not discussing today's game. Chu Ran suddenly felt bored.

But just when he was about to close the live broadcast room, Uzi spoke quietly.

"Someone asked me what I thought about EDG advancing to the finals. Of course I watched it with a smile."

Chu Ran was stunned, and many people in the live broadcast room were also confused.

Who the hell asked you?

Do you need a top eight like you to comment?

At this moment, Uzi had a smile on his chubby face. The reason why he started broadcasting again was of course to take advantage of EDG's popularity. It would be a waste not to take advantage of this popularity.

Nowadays, countless GSLs have been liquidated and become homeless, and their own live broadcast room is their final destination. As long as they start broadcasting, they can attract countless GSLs and even Korean Xiaozi to watch.

Then you can have cool popcorn.

This is what San Shao taught Uzi.

As for being criticized by the audience, why not just learn from Chu Ran and speak like a fan?

Can Chu Ran make money by being a black celebrity?

Then Jian Zihao can’t do it?
"As for why I was smiling, just look at the trending searches on the internet right now. The game has just ended and all the hype is coming."

"But he's still so arrogant, saying that SKT is too weak. He will most likely face SKT in the finals. Look, he has already found his way to death."

Uzi had a smile on his face. When he saw a comment saying [So you know a lot, anchor], he instantly felt proud. "Of course you know. I played against SKT in the S League more than once or twice. I know very well how strong SKT is in the S League."

"Do you know what it means to drive someone crazy if you want to destroy him? Now the beast has been blown up to the sky, and if it falls down, it will be smashed to pieces."

"The anchor has experienced this before. Is there anyone who doesn't know who the first runner-up of LPL is? I guess I need to change the title."

Uzi said this proudly in the live broadcast room.

Now Chu Ran is just the runner-up at least, why should he compare with me?

It seems that he must explain to many viewers that so far, Uzi is the LPL professional player with the best performance in the S game.

After he finished speaking, countless GSLs reached a collective climax. Each one of them was extremely proud and began to vigorously refresh the screen in the live broadcast room.

[Indeed, what are animals? ]

[If it weren't for Xiaogou leading the all-Chinese team to fight against South Korea, LPL would have been dead by now. ]

[To be honest, it is true that without God, LPL would be half as fun. 】

【Runner-up? I don’t even want to give it to the dog, so I’ll just take a bath and brag about it as an honor. 】

[I burst out laughing. GSL is really stupid. It seems that LPL is supported by the bathing dog, right? ]

[Uzi, stop trying to take advantage of me. You want to learn black and red but you can't. Look at you. It's only been a short time and you're already red and warm. You can't make a living from this.]

[If you have nothing to do, I suggest you go bite a lighter. Change the title of your live broadcast room to the world's first shock wave, and broadcast a bath and drink milk. I will send you rockets! ]

Seeing these comments, Uzi felt furious for no reason, but he still forced himself to hold it back.

He forced a smile and said, "Thank you all for the gifts. I would like to advise Ranchu and EDG to hurry up and train, and not get too complacent. It would be ugly if they collapse in the Bird's Nest."

Just as Uzi said.

Although he was eliminated in the quarterfinals and was scolded by the whole network, if EDG lost the game in the final at the Bird's Nest.

He estimated that Chu Ran would be madly liquidated by the entire network, and all his previous fans would become black fans.

When he thought of this, Uzi couldn't help but snort and looked at the angry Chu Ran fans in the live broadcast room.

Uzi suddenly felt that he was not so angry anymore.

He has matured again!
No wonder Ranchu likes to start a team fight, it’s really cool to see the players’ fans break down.

Just as Uzi was about to increase his firepower, a barrage of bullets rose into the air again.

[Uzi, stop trying to get away with it. Chu Shen's bath water is not hot. Instead of trying to get away with it like a clown, you might as well spend more time studying this year's All-Star Solo Tournament and strive to win an "S" championship to break the situation where you haven't won a championship for so many years. But then again, there are still people who brag about being the runner-up every day. Is it because he has no championship that he can only brag about being the runner-up? I'll give you the money for this brand, you clown who only knows how to beg for food on the Internet! ]

In an instant, Uzi's smile suddenly stopped, and his chubby face began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Fuck you! Fuck you champion! Only losers need to be champions to prove themselves. With the S-League system, what value does a champion have?"

"It's none of your business if I can't win the championship. Where did you come from, you little black guy? The two runners-up can't compare to your mouth, right?"

Seeing Uzi's defense break instantly, countless people in the live broadcast room and Chu Ran's fans burst into laughter.

[Hahaha, not only killing people, but also destroying their hearts! ]

[Why doesn't Solo have olo? 】

[Because it was sealed by the evil god Omimi. 】

[Ahahaha, I'm jealous of your talent, you are worthy of being the disciples of Master Chu! ]

【The disciple is better than the master! 】

[Wow! I’m so anxious, anchor, anchor, what kind of championship are you? No way, you can’t even win the Solo Championship. ]

[Host, you have neither an S-League championship nor a solo title. You should prepare for this year's solo competition as soon as possible.]

...

Facts have proved that Uzi still can't make a living from being a black and red player.

Just a few minutes into the broadcast, he became familiar with it, then broke down and went off the air.

"Oh, it's gone? Why did you run away? I just opened a watermelon, this is boring."

Pawn sat next to Chu Ran with a watermelon in his hand, feeling a little helpless. As soon as he sat down, Uzi couldn't keep up.

The combat effectiveness of this Uzi is just poor.

"Indeed, he ran away just like that. Uzi can't do that." Meiko nodded in agreement while cracking melon seeds.

Seeing Uzi end the live broadcast, he and Pawn suddenly felt bored, while Chu Ran took the screenshot of the netizens' barrage and sent it as a Weibo.

And then...GSL got furious.

I heard that someone passed by the RNG club and almost went in to sign a contract. At the same time, he heard Xiaohu's screams, which was chilling.

Uzi's live broadcast only added a little fun to Chu Ran's monotonous life.

After converting his red temperature values ​​of the past few days into entries, Chu Ran studied for a while and then took a shower and went to bed.

When the next day came, the hot searches on the Internet were still going on, and various words related to Chu Ran and EDG appeared frequently. Chu Ran's name and influence were still increasing.

At the same time, many top lane Warwick, Talon and Draven appeared in the canyon.

Although the main players are silent when playing alone and when they betray their teammates, these players all said that they learned from watching Chu Ran's teaching videos.

The rank is not high, semi-finals of the global finals.

This made Chu Ran even more popular, and all kinds of insults appeared on the forum.

[Brother, you don't watch the game, right? Didn't this start from MSI? Yasuo on the top lane, Riven in the river, what a fuss. ]

[I think top lane Lee Sin is really good, I have the upper hand.] [Brother, why are you getting points for Lee Sin? It's not that I despise you, but I really think that no one except Chu Shen can use this hero top lane.]

[That's right, you really ignore the facts just to show off. If I pick any hero at random, won't I be able to beat him? ]

[? Solo? Canyon of the Top, ID, Lion Meow, Noxus is banned. ]

...

Finally, Lion Cat’s declaration of war gathered countless Chu Ran’s black fans. If they couldn’t beat Chu Ran’s haters, then how could they beat Chu Ran’s brainless fans?
Cricket is just a top laner playing as a Warwick, and he can be easily beaten if he has a hand.

However, the ending was indeed not satisfactory. In the end, countless black pieces were defeated, and only Lion Cat won the game but lost to Chat.

Some people found that Lion Cat typed too slowly, so they started to criticize him right from the start, making Lion Cat miserable.

As for this matter, Chu Ran naturally didn't know. All of them came to the scene today to watch the match between MSF and SKT.

Although you are confident verbally, you still cannot be careless in reality.

Many LPL viewers hope that MSF can play out some of SKT's qualities, but they must not be too confident.

RNG has already played with 50% of SKT's confidence. If MSF does the same thing again today, it will be really difficult.

The semi-final started on time at 3 pm.

As soon as they came on, SKT gave them a surprise!
"Oh my god! Wolf's troll assistant, what the hell is this? Are you trying to imitate Ran and do scientific research?"

In the LPL commentary booth, I remember screaming in shock, obviously unable to believe what was happening.

Chu Ran and others were also a little surprised when they saw it.

"Xiaoran, what do you think?" Mingkai asked.

"I personally think SKT doesn't seem to like playing Censer. Look at Wolf, he rarely plays Lulu or Janna. He likes Rakan and hard supports."

"MSF is like not having censers and auxiliary gems, so the effect is poor." Meiko expressed his opinion.

While they were talking, the first game started, but MSF's AD Hansama was killed by Bang.

The breakthrough point of this game was immediately opened, and SKT finally gained a big advantage in the top, jungle and bottom positions, and took down MSF in a team battle.

In an instant, countless Korean filial sons began to bark like dogs again, but after the second and third rounds, the faces of the Korean filial sons and Korean sticks looked as ugly as if they had eaten shit.

In the second and third games, MSF's support Ignar used a robot to directly destroy SKT's bottom lane.

Another battle of the Goddess of Dawn allowed Hansama to kill Bang, thus securing the victory and bringing the score to 1 to 2.

It was MSF that reached match point.

They were not mistaken. Mingkai and countless viewers all gasped.

This European triple jump team is so powerful?
In the LPL commentary booth, I remember staring with my eyes wide open and saying loudly: "Oh my God! This little rabbit from Europe is going to eat people!"

"They were one game away from killing the gods. Ignar's War Zeal and Aurora cooperated with Hansama to get the match point. As long as they win one more game, SKT will stop in the semi-finals, thus making this year's LCK miss the finals."

"MSF!"

At this moment, there was an endless stream of cheers from the audience, and many LPL viewers were instantly excited beyond words!

The barrage keeps rolling at this moment!

[Han Xiaozi! What a joke! Is this the SKT in your S game? ]

[Haha, we defeated MSF 3-0, why are we being defeated by the Rabbit Team?]

[I am tired of laughing. I like to brag. I told you that SKT is so bad this year! 】

At this moment, Han Xiaozi, the Korean commentators and the audience could not believe their eyes.

All kinds of wailing and cursing emerged from the commentary booth and on the Korean Internet.

There was also a gloomy atmosphere in the backstage of SKT. They never dreamed that they would lose two games to MSF, a team they did not think highly of.

In the EDG lounge, Meiko cheered excitedly.

"Fuck! They are really going to beat SKT. Brother Ran, where is Brother Ran?" Meiko asked puzzledly. Pawn pointed at the sofa and found Chu Ran sleeping soundly.

"Brother Ran talked for a long time and only got a few heads. It was so boring. I fell asleep after watching it."

"If that's the case, then everyone is as fierce as Brother Ran." Meiko felt a little embarrassed.

After checking out online forums, I discovered that many LPL netizens were just as excited as he was.

If the final is against MSF, the probability of winning the championship will increase significantly.

Even though MSF really advanced by defeating SKT, many viewers feel that EDG has a greater chance of winning against MSF.

But in the midst of the excitement, in the fourth game, MSF crossed the tower without any troops on the high ground, completely destroying their hopes of defeating SKT and dragging the game until the battle song sounded.

In the end, SKT won the next two games and defeated MSF with a score of 3 to 2.

"Congratulations to SKT!"

“It was such a wonderful and exciting game. In this BO5, the performances of both teams amazed us!”

"Especially MSF from Europe, they proved themselves on this stage, that is, even a rabbit will eat another when it is cornered. Although they were one step behind in the end, they still won with honor!"

"Let us congratulate SKT. They have successfully obtained the ticket to the Bird's Nest and will soon compete with our LPL team at the top of the Bird's Nest. Let us also give applause to MSF!"

As the loud and clear voices of those people came out, the scene and the live broadcast room instantly exploded.

Although many LPL viewers enjoyed the game, they were worried inside, especially when SKT won and the LCK team was extremely lively with the sound of gongs and drums!

[SKT! This is the three-time dynasty SKT, they are about to win their fourth championship! ]

【Faker's wandering is invincible! 】

[That's it? Keep shouting, you noobs from the LPL, SKT is about to shatter your championship dreams at the Bird's Nest! ]

[The weak LPL will never win the championship because of Lee Sang Hyuk! He is the only father of LPL! The highest mountain and the longest river of League of Legends! ]

...

At the same time, on domestic forums, many Korean filial sons were originally preparing to delete their accounts and run away, but SKT won two games in a row, allowing them to stand up again.

The black fans of GSL and EDG have begun to be liquidated!
【Chatter! The filial son Zhu Za Ge Ran is chattering! 】

[Zhu Za Ran Xiao Zi dared not say anything more. They will face the big devil in the finals and will not be able to win the championship. ]

[Hahaha, does anyone really think that EDG can beat SKT in a BO5 in the S game? ]

[The whole world knows that SKT has never lost to LPL in a BO5 in the S League! ]

...

The domestic and LCK forums were suddenly in an uproar, and even Europe was in an uproar.

MSF failed to stop SKT. Even though EDG was very strong this year, it was hard not to support SKT given their status as a three-time champion.

Countless Koreans and Koreans began to celebrate happily and criticized the audience who supported LPL in various ways.

Especially in the post-match interview, Faker's words made the momentum of Korean Xiaozi and Korean Bang even more fierce.

"I wasn't too nervous facing EDG in the finals. After all, I've participated in the S-League so many times. Coming to the S-League is like coming home, especially the S-League finals, which I've played in many times."

"I have never lost to an LPL team in a BO5 in the S League, and I won't lose this time either."

"I will dedicate this fourth championship to my fans."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire LPL forum was in an uproar!
Countless Korean filial sons are waiting for an opportunity to act. They have been furious about the remarks praising EDG and Chu Ran in recent days.

Now seeing SKT enter the finals, he instantly vented his anger.

Although many LPL players tried their best to resist, they all had a fear of SKT in their hearts.

After all, I haven't won in all these years.

Will we win this time?
Countless viewers had no confidence at all. Even though this year's EDG was very strong and had never lost, they were facing Faker in the finals, which immediately poured cold water on the hot LPL.

"Okay, Ran, there's been a huge uproar on the internet, a lot of haters have come out, they don't support us EDG, are they Chinese?"

Meiko imitated Uzi's words and teased, trying to dispel the fear of SKT in his heart.

Or maybe it's the fear of Faker.

"Just make a fuss, but they'll shut up after the game." Chu Ran yawned, stretched, and said calmly, "Let's go eat. I'm hungry."

"That's right. Now that things have come to this, let's eat first." Pawn nodded in agreement.

After all, SKT has already reached the finals, they can't find a reason to disqualify SKT from the game.

While they were eating, the news that SKT was advancing into the Bird's Nest to meet EDG quickly caused a storm.

Especially under the leadership of Uzi, Chu Ran's biggest black fan, countless black fans used the fact that Faker had never lost a BO5 in the S game to constantly make faces at the audience supporting EDG, making them very angry.

On the hot search list, the popularity of EDG's massacre of LZ yesterday was instantly squeezed down, and all the words were about SKT and Faker.

#Faker said the finals at the Bird's Nest was like going home. #
#SKT and EDG fight at the Bird's Nest! #
#The quadruple crown is only one step away#
#Love Apartment Zhang Yida serves as commentator for the final at the Bird's Nest. #
...

Fujii's speed was ridiculously fast. The game had just ended and the promotional poster for the final had already appeared.

Chu Ran and Faker firmly occupied the C position of the team.

The faces of the two men account for a very large proportion of the image. They stand on the left and right, looking at each other, with a strong desire to fight in their eyes.

The triple champion versus the king of top lane!
[Even Fujii supports SKT. The left side has always been respected. Faker stands on the left side. Those who understand will understand.]

[Zhu Za and Ran Xiaozi like to bark, I'll see what we will do if the Bird's Nest loses. ]

[What to do? Just leave it alone. From then on, Guodian will be in trouble for the rest of its life.]

[Haha, EDG wants to beat SKT, unless Fujii manipulates things behind the scenes and makes some rules against Faker, such as not allowing Faker to use F flash! ]

[No, I think the first thing is to not let Dafei switch screens, and the second thing is that a mother must be present to watch the show.]

[CNM! You are sick, aren't you?]

[As expected, LPL is in line with my usual impression, with no quality at all! ]

[It’s all because of the bad influence of animals. The rat shit spoils the whole pot of soup! ]

[Doesn't Ranchu have parents? Can I let Ranchu carry his parents' urns to participate in the competition? CNM! ]

[Haha, I feel anxious and comfortable. I like to see Tadashi's defense being broken.]

[That's right, if EDG wins, none of you can escape. ]

[66666! Damn! I'm jealous of your talent! ]

....
In a short while, these words of netizens spread on the Internet.

Countless forums were in turmoil, and the personal accounts of Chu Ran and EDG were collectively hacked.

The combat capability of Tadashi is better than that of GSL.

From the moment SKT advanced to the finals, the topic was searched online continuously for five days, until the night before the finals, when it became completely silent.

The calm before the storm is spreading across the country!
