A bully in the e-sports world, from a nobody to a succubus champion!

Being swept aside in 26 minutes will be a blow to everyone's morale.

After glancing at A-Guang, A-Bu suddenly felt conflicted.

He was wondering if he should take a gamble and let the legendary Chaos God go up and give it a try?

"Ah Guang," Abu patted Ah Guang on the shoulder and said, "This game isn't your fault. It was my draft that was the problem. I didn't expect the enemy Camille to be such a high priority. Have some water and get some rest."

Ah Guang raised his head and bit his lip: "Mine, I couldn't hold on."

"It's alright, the match isn't over yet," Abu comforted him, then turned his gaze to Lin Mo, who had been sitting quietly to the side.

"Xiao Mo," Abu called out, "You're up for the second round."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Lin Mo.

Although Lin Mo displayed an amazing "mystical" physique when playing against RNG in the semifinals, he has also shown unexpected individual skills and hand speed in recent training matches.

But today we're facing 957, who's in top form.

What's more, this kid just openly said during the pre-match trash talk that he was there to "get beaten up".

Now, if we really have to carry him up to face that terrifying 957, can he withstand it?

"Okay, Coach." Lin Mo nodded, and joked, "I've already mentally prepared myself for a beating down here. I promise to carry out the tough talk I made before the match and I will never let EDG down."

"..."

The slightly somber atmosphere in the lounge was eased a little by Lin Mo's joke.

The factory manager chuckled and said, "Stop joking! You saw 957's performance today; he was like a god of war. If you go up there thinking of just taking a beating like you did against RNG, it probably won't work."

"Don't worry." A confident glint flashed in Lin Mo's eyes. "There's an art to getting beaten up."

Although 957 is very strong, Lin Mo is no longer the player who could only hide under the tower and survive!

Now that he has 97 points of hand speed, he really wants to test the depth of 957.

"Okay, I'll go inform the officials to replace him!" Abu said as he walked out of the lounge.

……

After the two halves were split, the three commentators in the commentary booth received the news.

Rita's eyes lit up slightly when she learned that Lin Mo would be playing in the next round.

Doll Miller paused for a moment, then they exchanged a glance.

"Alright, everyone, welcome back to the 2017 LPL Spring Split Finals!" Wawa cleared his throat and announced loudly, "We just received a notification from backstage that EDG has made a roster change for the upcoming second game!"

Miller then added, "Yes! A-Guang is temporarily off the court for a rest, and his replacement is none other than our substitute top laner who shone in the semifinals—Mo!"

As soon as the news broke, the previously quiet venue immediately became lively, with discussions erupting everywhere.

The live stream chat instantly covered the entire screen:

"Holy crap! The guy who got beaten up is here!"

"He keeps his word! He just trash-talked us, saying he was there to get beaten up, and in the second round he really did get beaten up. I respect him as a real man!"

"Is EDG desperately trying anything? A-Guang got completely destroyed, so they're sending in an even worse player to feed?"

"Leg Bro: Which kid just told me to go easy on him? Wash your neck clean and wait for me!"

"Guys, I feel like we can declare WE 2-0 up now. With Mo's skill level, he'd be completely outmatched by Leg Bro!"

"EDG is determined to stick to their 'play-it-or-leave-it' strategy to the end, but not everyone is as easy to beat as RNG!"

"I bet five cents that WE will win the championship today!"

"Even when he duos with Rita and Aunt Yu, he still relies on them to carry him to victory. How can he possibly compete against 957?"

"..."

While netizens were discussing this, the same thing was happening in the WE lounge.

"Hey, EDG made a roster change this game, HunShen is coming in." Jungler Condi grinned. "Leg Bro, it's obvious that AGuang on the other side can't handle the pressure, so they should bring in someone who can withstand more pressure to play defensively. What do you think?"

Mid laner Xiye joked, "Yeah, Leg Bro, this newbie on the other side specifically asked you to beat him up before the match. You'd better satisfy him this game."

Despite his teammates' teasing, 957 didn't seem too arrogant.

He pushed up his glasses and said seriously, "If he plays like he did against RNG before, relying solely on not farming lanes and staying under towers to gain vision for the jungler, then in the face of our current operational system, I will make sure he can't even survive."

"However..." 957 paused, "I'm just a little worried that his performance in the semifinals was an act. After all, to be brought up by EDG in such a crucial game as the finals, his true strength is definitely not what we showed."

As a top-tier blue-collar and carry-type top laner, 957 always felt that there was something sinister about this Mo.

"Hey, Leg Bro, you're overthinking it," Condi said nonchalantly. "No matter how much he pretends or hides, he can't possibly beat you, the LPL's number one top laner, in lane. Don't be scared, at most I'll go top lane and gank him a couple of times, turning him into a sieve!"

"Exactly, we're in such good shape right now, no matter what tricks he tries, we just have to fight him." Mystic, the brother-in-law, chimed in with his Korean accent.

Listening to his teammates' words, 957 nodded.

"Alright, time's almost up. Everyone get ready to go on stage and take the second game in one fell swoop!" WE's head coach, Hongmi, clapped his hands to remind everyone.

The break time has officially ended.

Accompanied by background music, the ten players from the two teams walked onto the stage one by one from the player passage.

Fans from both sides immediately started shouting and cheering.

Lin Mo followed the factory manager to EDG's booth, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

As soon as Lin Mo sat down, a notification sounded in his mind:

[Ding! Host detected as being on the LPL Spring Split Finals stage, triggering a critical match mission!]

[Mission Requirements: In this match, please use a very annoying top lane champion to torment your opponent and win the game!]

[Mission Rewards: Rewards will be distributed based on the host's "severity of torment" and performance in the game!]

[Accept the mission?]

Upon hearing this task, Lin Mo paused slightly while wearing noise-canceling headphones.

"Torturing the opponent?"

Lin Mo muttered to himself, then decisively accepted the task.

But after accepting the mission, he began to quickly filter through the heroes in his mind who fit the word "torture".

The first one that comes to mind is definitely Teemo, after all, his blinding ability combined with planting mushrooms makes him arguably the most annoying character in the Rift.

However, Teemo has already been used in the semifinals, and Teemo has too low a margin for error, making it easy to disconnect directly, so it cannot be considered the optimal solution.

Singed the Alchemist?

Cutting off minion waves is indeed disgusting, but WE's jungler Condi is no pushover. Going to cut off minion waves makes him extremely easy to get ganked and killed.

Long-range champions like Kalista, Lucian, and Vayne can be very troublesome, but with only 50 awareness points, it's difficult to defend against ganks. Currently, picking such squishy ADCs for the top lane is also very risky.

Just as Lin Mo's thoughts were racing, a figure popped into his mind—the tough, old woman in the top lane!
