I just turned eighteen, and you want me to make a comeback?

Chapter 81-Double Sword Duel, Exile Blade

The trash talk phase is over and the BP officially begins!
Since Flash Wolves is the first in the group, they have the right to choose the side in the first game.

Without a doubt, Flash Wolves chose the blue side.

Needless to say, the blue side has a huge advantage in this version.

The ban position on the red side is so scarce that you can guess what KT will ban with your eyes closed.

As expected, KT killed Gangplank, Malphite, and Lulu in the first three picks.

Originally, they wanted to ban one of Nasus or Fiora, but even if they banned them, Yuan Shen still had Crocodile and Riven to choose from, and there were not enough ban slots, so they simply gritted their teeth and released them all at once, choosing both sides at the same time.

Flash Wolves' third ban position is given to Jarvan, Lee Sin, and Tam.

Since AHQ brought out the hero Tam, both FNC and KOO have chosen him, and he has gradually become a popular choice in this version.

The first two moves to block the jungler were to limit Score's hero choices.

The blue team grabbed the spider and took it down directly.

KT, on the other hand, locked in the combination of Fiora and Braum.

"The red team doesn't leave a counter position for the top laner? KT is so weird!" Jide frowned and said.

"There's no way. If there were enough ban slots, they would definitely ban a lot of top lane heroes, but now they've all been released. Fiora is Yuanshen's strongest hero, and she definitely can't be given to Thunder Wolf." Su Su said.

"Ssumday's Fiora is also very strong, so we should be careful."

While the three were talking, Flash Wolves directly locked on Skate Shoes and Tsar in their second and third moves.

Since it was a very common choice, the commentators did not explain it in detail.

On the third and fourth floors, KT took down Gragas and Ashe.

"Ash... She's incredibly powerful when paired with Braum, both for holding targets and attacking. Eldar still has no top laner options, so I wonder what champion Yuanshen will bring out to fight Fiora..."

"Noxus or Crocodile... ah? Are we going to release Kennen?"

I remember my eyes widened halfway through the sentence.

On the court, Flash Wolves locked Kennen in seconds on the fourth floor.

"Kaineng's lane against Fiora isn't very easy, right? Although he thrives without pressure during the laning phase, he can't suppress Fiora. In the mid-game, Fiora controls both the initiative and lane control... Krista has also been released. This can't be AD Kaineng's strategy. Could it be..."

"Krista and Kai can go to the bottom lane. IG has used this bottom lane combination before and the effect is very good." Su Su seemed to have thought of something and said quickly.

And Flash Wolves' final choice also confirmed her thoughts.

"The day the broken sword is reforged, its power will return!!"

On the fifth floor of Flash Wolf, the cold and aloof silver-haired woman appeared.

Exile Blade, Riven!

"Raven fights Fiora?! Is the atmosphere so tense right from the start?" I remember shouting.

At this time, KT also locked down a hero that had never appeared before on the fifth floor.

The evil little wizard, Veigar!

The lineups of both sides are confirmed.

“FW Blue Side:
Top laner Yuanshen: Exile Blade - Riven
Jungle Karsa: Spider Queen - Elise

Mid-lane Maple: Desert Emperor - Azir

Bottom Lane NL: Spear of Vengeance - Kalista
Support SwordArt: Heart of Fury - Kennen
KT Red Side:
Top Lane Ssumday: Wushuang Sword Princess - Fiona

Jungle Score: Gragas
Mid-lane Nagne: Evil Little Mage - Veigar
Bottom Lane Arrow: Ice Archer - Ashe
Support Piccaboo: Heart of the Freljord - Braum.

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of the London audience, the two teams entered the Summoner's Rift.

This game is really interesting in all three lines!

Riven, Little Mage, Kennen support...

These heroes who are rarely seen in normal times all appear on the stage, which makes people look forward to it.

Especially in the top lane, the mechanisms of the two heroes, Riven and Fiora, make it impossible for them to develop peacefully.

Like repels like, and the two women who were both slashing at each other with swords on the road could not tolerate each other.

Both sides start with a Doran's Blade and a red armor. The war ignites.

Neither side had the intention of fighting at level one, nor did they choose to change lanes.

In one minute and thirty seconds, the entire army attacked.

When the soldiers walked to the second tower, Yuan Shen started to use the Q skill.

Riven's Q blocking skill.

The CD of each Q skill of Riven will be calculated. If each Q is used within the limit time, then the level 1 Q will only have a three-second cooldown time.

This little trick allows Riven to have three layers of passive stacked on her as soon as the soldiers come online, which is very beneficial whether she is attacking the soldiers to push the line and grab the second one or fighting directly.

Ssumday certainly knows this trick, but Fiora is also well-known for her strength at level 1.

As soon as they came online, without even recruiting a single soldier, the two started fighting.

Fiora's flaw was revealed in the front.

Break the Sky Slash first to attack, break the enemy, and start A with the help of acceleration.

Almost at the same time, Riven attacked forward with Broken Wings Dance, and after hitting two light-speed Q and A, she used the third Q to slant horizontally, shaking Fiora away at a subtle angle, and then retreated backwards.

Blood transfusion, break even.

"Uh... Why didn't Riven attack with the third hit?"

Changmao was a little confused.

Although he is a commentator in LPL, he is Taiwanese and has an instinctive liking for Flash Wolves. He couldn't help but feel a little impatient when he saw Yuan Shen's performance.

"You can't attack. That attack seems to be a win, but if the distance is too close, Fiora will definitely have a stronger sustained combat ability at level 1. If Fiora's Q skill is used well and sticks to the target, Riven won't be able to exchange blood."

"The angle of the third Q is really good..." Xiaoxiao commented.

This is not bragging. Many Riven players use Q3 very roughly and only use it to deal damage.

In fact, Riven's Q3 has a large range, and the knock-up effect can be very useful if used well.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Riven should be a little timid during the next skill gap," said PDD.

In fact, before level 3, it is very difficult for Riven to beat Fiora.

Especially for the newly revised Fiora, if W is used well, even if you don't need to block Riven's W or Q3, as long as it hits, it will have the effect of reducing movement speed and attack speed. Riven will never be able to beat Fiora.

"The junglers on both sides have moved." Xiaoxiao said.

Just over 2 minutes later, the junglers on both sides received their first red buff.

Through the live broadcast screen, the audience, who had a God's perspective and could see the situation of the junglers of both sides in the wild area, immediately discovered the movements of the junglers.

Hit the road.

The junglers of both teams came to the top lane at the same time.

They hid in the triangular grass and the river grass respectively, facing each other across the river.

Although there was no opponent in sight, both junglers vaguely guessed the other's movements.

"Both sides are counter-ganking! KT is also defending the top lane."

"After all, no one wants the jungler to become a factor that interferes with the top lane, so KT still has a lot of confidence in Ssumday."

"It was a pretty tacit decision, both of them came here directly after defeating the red buff.

Changmao said in surprise.

Xiaoxiao beside him also nodded:
"I guess both teams guessed the opposing jungler would likely gank top lane with a single buff, and they were all counter-camping for their own top laner. The top laner's strategic position is so crucial in this meta, they should patiently wait until level 3 before moving on."

"Yes, after level 3, Fiora and Riven are hard to catch," PDD added.

After reaching level three, the two heroes Riven and Fiora will see their flexibility and anti-gank capabilities rise to a higher level.

As expected, when the top laner reached level 3, as if by telepathy, the junglers on both sides of the live broadcast quietly retreated back to the jungle.

Under the commentary of two retired professional players, Changmao felt that his level was a little insufficient.

Why aren't these two bastards talking dirty today? Why are they giving such a serious commentary?
Even though the LPL teams have all gone home, there's no need to commentate on our LMS games so seriously...
