My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 242 Covered in red hair, his later years are unknown.

With the conclusion of the first two days of the group stage, LPL leads the entire professional League of Legends esports scene with a perfect record of six wins.

Such an incredible record.

This has led teams from all major regions to regard LPL teams as their greatest rivals in this era!
In contrast.

LCK, on ​​the other hand, was filled with lamentations.

They even made the North American and European fans laugh because they lost more than the LEC and LCS.

This is just great.

Not only is EU greater than NA, but now it has also successfully surpassed Kr. It's incredibly satisfying.

However.
It seems to have touched upon the principle that things will turn into their opposites when they reach an extreme.

Just as everyone was celebrating their current achievements, a series of club announcements over the next few days came like a bolt from the blue, completely shocking a large number of viewers in China.

It was as if some indescribable thing had used iron chains to link the various teams together.

EDG, JDG, and TES have all announced that some of their players have been infected. Of course, TES has the fewest infected players, with only one. Moreover, it's not just LPL teams; several LCK teams have also been affected, which is a huge blow to their upcoming matches.

Anyone who's been tricked knows.

Leaving aside the throat-slitting sensation, the high fever alone could drive most people insane.

G2 was also very worried at first.

But then it dawned on them that something was wrong. They were playing at home and had long been coexisting with the indescribable. What was there to be afraid of? Then they looked at their next opponent, V5.
Not right.

Why is it that all the teams in your region have announced they're sick, but V5 has been keeping quiet for so long?
What?
You said you recovered from your illness early and are now in an immune state?
I see through!
This thing can actually overload?

"Fortunately, we listened to Meng's advice and took the initiative to contact her in advance. Otherwise, if she got sick during the group stage or later matches, it would have had a huge impact on the team's performance."

Nofe breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the whole team was rather obedient and didn't have much of their own opinions, doing whatever Luo Ji said, otherwise they could have easily fallen into his trap.

But this also reflects how terrible a virtue it is to be obedient to advice.

The neighboring island nation.

Why is Tong Di able to eat so well now?
It's because he has high emotional intelligence, works hard, is willing to endure hardship, has a big hook, doesn't care if someone is ugly, and is obedient and respectful to actresses.

The main point is to listen to advice and not distinguish between meat and vegetables.

"Don't forget, our next opponent isn't sick either," Zero quickly reminded him from the side.

The group stage of the World Championship.

In most normal circumstances, five wins are enough to secure first place in the group and advance. EG is no match for them. DK lost one game to them and is now sick.

If they can defeat G2, then they will basically secure first place in their group and advance to the quarterfinals of the World Championship.

but
Although they survived.

However, the news that three out of four LPL teams were infected still caused a huge uproar online.

[Didn't you say you'd arranged quarantine hotels and guaranteed absolute safety? With this infection rate, you're telling me it's safe?]

[Laughs, there have already been dozens of cases of infection by the group stage. This isn't League of Legends, it's clearly PUBG! You have to win the "elimination rounds" to even get into the knockout stage, right?]

[When V5 got caught in the outbreak, I thought they were all unlucky, but now it seems they were the luckiest ones.]

[That's strange, it seems like none of the AD carries from any of the major teams are sick?]

[It's very simple, because this is a blessing bestowed upon all AD carries by the great god of AD – "Uncrowned," we've all misunderstood Uzi~]

no way.

This kind of force majeure event cannot be blamed on the players, so the blame must lie with the organizers, and Riot Games, as always, chose to remain silent and play dead.

Go ahead and criticize.

No matter how much you criticize, the competition will continue as usual, the skin will still be on display, and the money will still be made. Who cares about the flood of criticism online?

no way.

Seeing that the organizers were giving up like this, all the teams had no choice but to save themselves.

"By the way, has G2's roster changed?"

"No, it seems to be the same group of people from MSI."

Zero looked through the information.

World Championship.

G2's lineup remains unchanged: top laner Bibab, jungler Eyjafjalla, mid laner Caps, and bot lane duo of Flakken and Targamas.

The good news is that without Ah P, they won't trigger G2's unique annual CJB curse.

The bad news is, without Ah P, G2's programming this year, no matter how good it is, won't be that great.

It can only be said that P's success and failure both stem from it.

Luo Ji couldn't even understand why G2 would choose to let P go, given his ability to create entertaining content and generate memes.

Regardless of his current skill level, the moment he appears on camera at a World Championship, he becomes a terrifying figure whose popularity is second only to Faker and Uzi.

"In that case, let's prepare for the showdown with G2."

"but."

"In the next round of matches, Karsa can rest for a while. We will release a rotation announcement. Be smart and take advantage of this time to practice jungle carry on your smurf account."

After being led astray by Luo Ji.

Nofe also started to become corrupt and rotten. Kasa was a little confused at first, wondering why he was suddenly put on the bench.

He listened to the coach's instructions.

Only then did he realize that this was a message for him to quickly make up for his shortcomings.

To be fair, Karsa isn't incapable of playing jungle carries; he has played them before. However, compared to junglers like Kanavi, the richest man, and Tarzan, his jungle carries always feel a bit lacking.

It lacks that touch of "uniqueness".
XLB, on the other hand, was overjoyed. His thinking was simpler; he thought the coach might just be letting him get a free skin, and he was so excited he almost knelt down to Nofe.

What a good man!
If it weren't for the difficulty in getting an appointment with the proctology department at America Hospital, he probably would have been willing to wear his long underwear inside out and have it delivered to his door that very night. V5 didn't have a match on the third day of the group stage.

However, within the same region, the performance of various teams began to fluctuate to varying degrees due to physical reasons. Among them, TES was the most outrageous, after winning one game at the beginning, they immediately suffered two consecutive losses.

Luo Ji looked at JKL's full head of red hair.

I really want to call him and tell him that having red hair here won't make others respect you; on the contrary, it might trap you in a curse, causing you to be covered in red hair and have an unfortunate old age.

But after thinking about it...
In S12, TES was completely immersed in the illusion of "brotherhood in LOL". Their victory in the north made them so arrogant that they felt deep down that they didn't need to change.

Of course, the most important thing is the lack of team spirit.

A team still needs a captain and someone who commands respect to lend a helping hand in times of crisis. From coaches to players to the training staff, no one could command the entire team.

There is no way.

Having three top-tier players on the team makes things difficult.

to be honest.

In V5, at least for the first half of the year, Luo Ji was willing to play a supporting role, and in the second half of the year, Xiao Yan saw the true nature of the team and voluntarily changed his mind. Both sides complemented each other.

It could be TES.

Luo Ji sees that everyone wants to be the star and no one wants to change the situation and be the supporting role. Not to mention that the problems have remained unchanged since the Spring Split. Maybe they have changed, but Da Huang loves to show off his logo, Zuo Shou loves KDA, and Shui loves to move forward.

Then
just forget it.

10 month 11 day.

Day four of the group stage.

The match between V5 and G2 is about to begin.

Everyone, from the players and commentators to the spectators, knows this.

Given V5's current form and reserves, as long as they win this round against G2, the next step will be to beat "sick" players and crush "noobs." G2 has only one chance to stop them from reaching the top of the group.

however.

This is such an important match.

Before the game.

Countless LPL fans were surprised to discover from V5's official announcement that V5's jungler pick for this game was actually substitute XLB.

Although I was a little confused.

But based on V5's record and performance throughout the year, everyone decided to wait and see. After all, it can't be worse than TES, right?
[Family members, did everyone here flee from TES?]

[That's how it is. I don't like watching EDG matches, I watch JDG matches occasionally, I like watching V5 matches, but I don't watch TES matches.]

I don't quite understand how this grouping works. Why are two LPL teams, V5 and G2, in the same group? Isn't there a regional avoidance rule?

To be fair, Europe was really strong this time. They just have one weakness: they don't know how to play best-of-five (BO5). They only play best-of-one (BO1) in the regular season, so their three main strategies are still effective.

This round of commentary.

The official assessment still went as high as a senior colonel, plus a 957 rank and a nobody whose name I didn't bother to search.

Of course, the focus is not on these three brothers.

The point is.

Just as Luo Ji and the others were about to go on stage, they saw several female hosts from Europe and America preparing backstage.

Although his appearance is average.

But their figures are all incredibly hot, unlike in China, where many people go to great lengths to achieve a fake figure, making it look like they're wearing a sex dollop.

For a specific example, you can refer to the video of Chovy sneaking glances at the hot body of a European and American female host during the interview when GENG advanced to the quarterfinals of the S13 World Championship.

It's like blinking five times per second.

(PS: Many readers are bad at playing mid lane because they haven't learned the essence of top-tier mid laners. Mid laners must learn to observe.jpg)

Even after they noticed their gaze.

These Western female hosts were not shy at all; on the contrary, they greeted them with great generosity, showing off their figures. Of course, most of their greetings were directed at Luo Ji.

It turns out.

A higher score applies to all game modes, especially in countries with a naturally open gaming culture.

All of them belong to:

If you line the streets to welcome me, I will do my utmost to help you.

If you repay me with a generous gift, I will gladly share everything I know.

The reverse is also possible.

"Brother Long, what do you think? Should we try to crush Little Sheep on the other side in this game?"

Sitting in the players' seat.

Luo Ji also subconsciously started teasing XLB next to him.

Throughout the entire year, XLB has hardly ever secured a starting position.

The main reason is that his butterfly effect was too strong; he managed to maintain Kasa's form through high-intensity training.

But XLB has also made progress.

Karsa deliberately practices what he's not good at, and jungle carry heroes happen to be his area of ​​expertise right now, all in order to find an opportunity to secretly rip off Karsa's backside.

We need to reclaim our starting position.

"That is required."

XLB nodded vigorously, and even added with a self-deprecating laugh:
“I have three wins against Jankos.”

"I understand him, but he doesn't understand me, that's one victory; I have one victory, he has zero, that's two victories; I have two victories, he has zero, that's three victories!"

"Today, I will surely kill him!"

"Awesome." X4
