My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 21: Holding the Madam hostage to command.
Commentary desk.

At this moment, Zhao Junri, who was responsible for carrying the entire game, sensed the undercurrent surging at the bottom of the canyon.

From God's perspective.

It was easy to tell at a glance what evil intentions V5 was plotting from their stance, and the point was, the opposing team, FPX, was foolish enough to fall for their trick.

"V5 seems to have some tricks up their sleeves here."

"What did FPX say? FPX gave them an opportunity. Riel started the team fight and Miss Fortune used her ultimate."

"This is a trap. V5's decision is very bold, but will FPX fall for it?"

"Yes! They've been tricked. AKL and Talon are attacking Miss Fortune. Miss Fortune is holding back her ultimate and moving closer to the dragon pit. Do you really want to attack? Do you really want to attack? Do you want to reconsider?"

"Here we go! FPX has completely fallen into V5's trap."

"Mebius is coming! Mebius unleashed a wave of nearly perfect thunder!"

in the screen.

When Kennen's thunder burst out and evenly sprinkled on FPX's top, mid and jungle, the glimmer of hope that FPX had finally raised was once again turned to ashes under the overwhelming thunder.

Fooled again!

That end.

Veteran LWX, who was sitting in the player's seat, had his fingers hovering on the keyboard for a long time, unwilling to put them down, after his three teammates were controlled by AOE.

Because this game is over.

Based on his understanding of Rookie and Karsa, V5's play in this game didn't seem like it came from them at all.

As for PPGOD?

If his command decisions were this smart, he wouldn't have been acquired by V5 just now. Although there are many supports in LPL, there are not many usable ones. As long as there is some bright spot, there will be no shortage of trial invitations from clubs.

so.
Are they the two newcomers?
【Welcome to watch, one of the four famous scenes in League of Legends - Thunder! 】

Where did this newcomer from V5 come from? Watching him all the way through the German Cup, every round has a famous or dark scene. It's so hilarious.

"How can he not be powerful when he's called Mebius? The last one that was this famous borrowed everyone's light when he fought Gatanjea, leaving you in darkness until now."

[Indeed, with a Giant of Light in the top lane and Emperor of Flame Xiao Yan in the bottom lane, this team is quite impressive.]

Although it is thunder from the sky.

However, because the equipment is relatively ordinary, it only has a visual effect, but does not have the visual shock of having the health volume empty.

Despite this, after this wave of group control and AOE, FPX's frontal team battle was completely defeated.

"No, why did you come out to rescue me so late?"

"I almost died!!!"

"If I were just a little bit later, the two assassins on the opposite side would have come out and killed me instantly. Speak up, you're talking too much! You're talking nonsense!"

Faced with Xiao Yan's wailing, all the teammates chose to remain silent and turned their eyes to Luo Ji.

What I mean is that you are the one who caused this, so you have to deal with it.

Their current situation is very similar to the mental journey when playing with friends:
[Opening: You and I, brothers, have the ambition to conquer the world]

Mid-term: It’s time to forget our roots

[Later: Brother, have you forgotten our friendship?]

[Late stage: Give me some face, give me a hand, give me a hand]

So what can he do?
When it was brought up, everyone acquiesced, but now that something has gone wrong, they are silent and passing the buck.

really.

The hot water is too hot for him to drink, and the human heart is too cold for him to touch.
However, this is still just a minor problem.

"Xiao Yan, let's be honest. Did we do our best to save you this time?" Luo Ji looked directly into Xiao Yan's eyes and asked firmly.

"That's true, but..." Xiao Yan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

"But what but? Don't you trust my timing? Or are your teammates really not worthy of your trust? Although I came up with the four-for-one strategy, the execution is up to you, and the heartache is mine. When you went out as bait, I was constantly condemning myself in my heart, and you... Sigh~"

"Oh, my, I was wrong. I'm sorry."

At this time, the advantage of age was once again demonstrated.

Just imagine.

When an 18-year-old who has just reached adulthood suddenly tells you in tears that you don't trust him, who the hell can stand that scene?

Xiao Yan knelt down immediately.

This strategy comes from the first rule of "The Guide to Bathroom Fights": Never fall into someone else's self-proving trap, but instead lure someone else into proving their own innocence.

The effect is unexpectedly good.

The remaining three members of V5:
No!

How can you fool people like this?

A team battle.

V5 directly exchanged 0 for 4 on the opponent.

The disadvantage of the double assassin lineup is that it has extremely low tolerance for error. Putting aside their high burst, they are actually no different from a squishy ATM.

what?
Who is Crispy ATM, you ask?

That must be the AD player. Only the AD on the field still retains the composure of an AD player. But in daily ranking, isn’t the AD just a mobile scarecrow used by other positions to measure damage?
After a team battle.

The equipment of several people on the front of V5 is basically complete. With some more effort, everyone can even have a stopwatch to increase the fault tolerance.

Despite such huge advantages in economy, vision, level, morale and equipment, FPX was defeated step by step and finally fell to V5.

2:1
V5, first to win the match point!
After winning the third game, Nofe and Zero in the backstage both breathed a sigh of relief. It’s hard to say about others, but for V5, winning the third game was a bit too important.

Yes.

They admitted that LWX was in very strong condition during this period, but in the field of e-sports, age does have a great impact on one's condition. Even a freak like Lao Li was only able to summon a divine burst in the fifth game because he was in the mid lane.

Even the basis of his burst is that some of his five shots are silent.

But the AD position is different.

Anyone who has played AD knows that after playing five or six games in a row, a normal person's hands will start to feel hot. If they play a few more games, soreness, swelling and fatigue will follow. The intensity of the profession will exacerbate this phenomenon.

S6 period.

The fact that the entire day's BO10 match only ruined Brother Shuijing clearly illustrates this point.

then
In the fourth game, when V5 chose a stone man for Luo Ji, cleaned out the functional AD in the bottom lane, and casually arranged a rhythm engine for the mid and jungle to force cut people, it was obvious that they wanted to squeeze the reaction and attention of your C position, and LWX understood.

The German Cup seems to be far away.

however!
Although he knew he was no match for his opponent, Master Xiang still put in a lot of effort and led the team to win the fourth game by using various extreme operations.

It was not until the fifth game that he was in poor condition and turned from the team's absolute pillar into the team's biggest flaw.

He finished burning it.

The fifth one.

Before Luo Ji even started to hit anything in the top lane, the kill notification in the bottom lane had already sounded.

finally.

3: 2.

Relying on the old man's special attack strategy against FPX, V5 successfully defeated FPX and advanced to the German Cup finals!
"It's not easy. This should be the best condition LWX has been in over a year, right?"

"Almost. I haven't seen him in this state and perform this well for a long time."

The moment the game is over.

Even Rookie and Karsa needed to stretch their muscles before standing up.

The old man's tactics.

Although it was the opponent's LWX who was outlasted, they also suffered some AOE damage.

Fortunately, both wingers are young enough, they only need to rely on experience to control the early rhythm, and then release the two howling "Huskies" to bite people. Otherwise.

If you have to do everything yourself, you will sooner or later fall into "brain overload" mode.

On this side, the atmosphere was pretty good because V5 won the game; but on the other side, FPX, who lost the game, was a little disappointed.

BO5的比赛不怕3:0或者3:1，因为这反而说明了两边队伍差距巨大，输了是正常的。

可3:2
This score, which was only one step away from victory and seemed so close, but was actually so far away, was really unacceptable to many players in the team.

Except LWX.

He just stood up, holding his waist, and looked in the direction of V5's seat from a distance.

He still remembered that at the end of the game, the entire team's voice chat fell into silence, while a few years ago, there might have been a monkey-like noisy voice encouraging everyone not to give up.

But that ultimately became a bubble.

"Brother Xiang."

After a brief period of sadness, the FPX players finally realized that the saddest player in this round of competition should not be themselves, but the big brother in front of them who supported the team to this day.

This scene is quite sad indeed.

It's like a female voice keeps whispering in your ear: "Have you heard the cries of the soldiers! Have you felt the crystal is crumbling! Have you ever noticed that one day the hero is no longer a hero, and the teammates are no longer teammates?"

"Alright, it's just the German Cup. It's like we didn't make it to Worlds this year and all our efforts were in vain."

quickly.

LWX looked at his teammates who were in a bad mood and reacted, and took the initiative to speak.

talking.

He continued to look towards V5, looking at V5's new AD carry and new top laner. Then, gradually, his gaze shifted to Luo Ji and he patted Little Tiger on the shoulder: "Did you see that new top laner on the opposite side?"

The little tiger was stunned for a moment, then looked over there.

In fact, he rarely looks at the opponent's top laner.

Because he looks so handsome, he looks like an entertainment star acting in an e-sports TV series.

The last person who made him feel this way was Mystic from WE team during the S7 period. He was a recognized pretty boy in the e-sports circle, but he was too green on the head.

LWX didn't care about this, but continued to speak:

“I love his eyes.”

"Of course, I hope that one day in the future, you will have it too."

As he spoke, he began to ask everyone to leave.

From the moment the crystal exploded, this stage no longer belonged to him. In the next German Cup final, it seemed that the opposing V5 would face the Galaxy Battleship TES, which had set sail again.

Inexplicable.

He had a little anticipation.

Backstage after the game.

This time, the post-match interview was given to the mid laner Rookie. Although Luo Ji's performance was still impressive, at a time when interview options are determined by KDA data, his data is indeed a bit disappointing.

But that’s fine.

He didn't want to participate in any interviews, as he always felt it was a waste of his time.

"So our next opponent is TES?"

Luo Ji flipped through his phone and then set his gaze on Karsa. "Brother Ka, I trust you when it comes to playing against TES. After all, you just got kicked out by TES. But what does Brother Ji say? Given how much he likes JKL, it's hard not to suspect he might be a traitor."

"Why don't we apply to the club to install an electric chair?"

"Every time he performs, we'll press the electric chair switch. Of course, we can also assign it to my sister-in-law (Xiao Yu). We can hold my wife hostage and use her to control the chicken. Isn't that wonderful!?"

Listen to his outrageous remarks.

Xiao Yan and PPGOD were so scared that they immediately moved away from Luo Ji's seat, fearing that blood would accidentally splash on them one day.

Too ha.

Too violent.

How dare you say this!?
I thought Kasa would righteously condemn him, but unexpectedly, Kasa actually pretended to think seriously and replied, "The electric chair isn't a good idea. What if he develops some special fetish? Wouldn't that be great for him? How about the ice bucket challenge? I could even do a livestream to get some gifts."

Xiao Yan and PPGOD: "!!!"

Are you devils?
Nofe remained silent.

Just quietly watching the chaotic scene in the room.

He had seen the method of provoking someone before, but this method of chicken general was the first time he had seen it. However, Kasa reacted quickly and immediately took up the conversation, so that Xiao Yan, who they were most worried about, was not affected.

Yes.

For Karsa and Rookie, playing against TES is just a matter of time. They have been professional players for so many years, so there is no hatred or grudge between them. But Xiao Yan is different. Strictly speaking, Xiao Yan has no hatred against TES. It is simply because of JKL. It is impossible for any AD to become a main player from the bench in TES.

It’s not a question of strength, but a question of how much economic benefits will be brought after the appearance.

That kind of desire can ignite a person's fighting spirit, but at the same time, excessive desire can also destroy a person's sanity.

The night after the game.

The news that V5 defeated FPX and advanced began to be known by more and more people, not because many people watched their round of games, but because many people heard that the German Cup finals were about to begin, so they followed the news to see which four teams were playing in the semi-finals.

Again.

The German Cup can only be regarded as an entertainment event. The value of this kind of event is so poor that many viewers would rather not watch the game.

Of course, if it is the final, that is another matter.

Together.

Luo Ji's live broadcast room was also exposed. As a man who always looks at money, he did not stop his live broadcast even though the German Cup final was about to come.

Who would complain about having too much money?

By the way.

While RANKing, he also selectively answered questions from the comments:
"What do you think of TES in the finals? Xiao Yan is JKL's substitute, Rookie is JKL's former teammate, and Karsa is JKL's ex. Their relationship is so complicated, does it matter what I think?"

"What do you mean I'm a loser, I haven't even had a single MVP in the German Cup?"

"Have you even watched the game? If you have, you can't tell who's trying their best, who's committing crimes, who's playing without a team style, and who's lacking in humanity. Can't you see?"

"Eh, no, we won, didn't we? Damn, even after winning, you still have so many murals!"

Have to mention.

When the later generations' memes were brought to S11 a few years in advance, the impact on the barrage was no less than a cross-era dimensionality reduction attack, just like the two-dimensional foil in The Three-Body Problem.

With just one move, his powerful aura shocked all the audience in the live broadcast room.

【Niubi! 】

[With such talent, why don't you become a streamer and make a name for yourself, but stay here as a small-time professional player?]

【The most supportive episode. 】

[Hurry up! Announce your retirement right after the German Cup. Then, start the "Don't Laugh" challenge that night. Punch characters, step on seafood, and advance to the next round. Today is the day!]

Luo Ji's mouth twitched as he looked at the barrage.

but
Before leaving the show late at night, he still responded directly to the comments about their views on the finals:

"Wait, then."

"Although we're a newly formed team, each of the five of us has our own strengths and unique skills. Our fighting spirit and endurance are astonishing. We're sure to bring you incredible surprises!"

"Of course, if we lose."

"Excuses are completely meaningless. The more critical the situation, the more people will draw their own conclusions. But in the end, there can only be one explanation."

"Cooking is the original sin."
