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

After listening to 957's analysis, everyone in WE nodded in agreement.

Everyone here is a seasoned veteran, and upon reflection, they realize that this is indeed the case.

Karma top lane may seem disgusting, but the margin for error is actually very low. As long as the top laner doesn't get solo killed and fall behind in the early game, in the mid to late game, no matter what items Karma builds, she is definitely not as good as a traditional top laner in split pushing and team fight initiation.

Coach Hongmi nodded with satisfaction: "957 is absolutely right. Mo on the other side has a very high game intelligence. He took advantage of our underestimation and exploited an information gap."

"However, the same trick will absolutely not work the second time!"

"In the next game, we'll do a little more targeted drafting. 957, don't feel pressured. As long as you get serious and play steadily, Mo's raw skill is definitely no match for yours."

Upon hearing this, 957 nodded: "Don't worry, Coach. In the next game, I will treat him as a real opponent. I promise, I will not give him any chance to cheat!"

His pride as the LPL's top laner was fully unleashed at this moment.

He had already made up his mind that he would definitely get his revenge in the next round!

The brief rest period passed in the blink of an eye.

With the commentator's reminder, both players returned to their seats on the stage.

"Alright friends, welcome back! This is the live broadcast of the 2017 LPL Spring Split Finals! EDG and WE are currently tied 1-1!"

From the commentary booth, Wawa's voice rang out again: "In the crucial third game, neither side made any substitutions. EDG will still start with Mo!"

Miller adjusted his glasses and continued, "Yes, according to the tournament rules, WE, who lost the last game, had the first choice of side. They chose the red side this game, it seems they want to reserve the fifth counter pick for 957 to target Mo."

"That's right, after all, 957 was really disgusted in the last game, so he definitely wants to get revenge in this game," Rita added with a smile.

As the commentators analyzed the game, the screen switched to the draft phase for the third game.

EDG is on the blue side, and WE is on the red side.

As soon as the first phase of the ban phase began, WE's first ban choice stunned the entire audience.

"clang!"

With a sharp crack, Karma was immediately locked in the small dark room.

Seeing this, the three commentators in the commentary booth looked at each other in bewilderment.

"WE banned Karma immediately in their first pick!" Wawa laughed. "It seems Mo's semi-tank Karma from the last game really left a psychological scar on WE!"

Miller nodded repeatedly: "A very wise choice! Although Karma top lane might not always be effective, this kind of champion is incredibly frustrating to play in lane. WE is addressing the problem at its root to protect Leg's mentality!"

The official live stream chat was instantly flooded with "hahaha" comments:

"This is hilarious! The LPL's top top laner got so badly beaten by a mediocre player that even Karma has to be banned?"

"WE: As long as I don't see that old woman dancing wildly, everything is fine!"

"Hun Shen is really showing off! On his second day since debut, he's already forced the opposing top laner to ban him!"

"WE feels like they wasted a ban slot."

……

On EDG's match stand.

Seeing the opposing team instantly ban Karma, Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh.

"Coach, they banned me, the old lady. Looks like they don't want to develop peacefully with me anymore," Lin Mo joked in the voice chat.

Abu, holding a strategy manual, stood behind Lin Mo and said, "It's okay. If they ban Karma, then some strong heroes will inevitably be released outside."

Abu's gaze swept across the hero list, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

He glanced at Lin Mo and recalled the training match a few days ago.

That skateboarder who treated Snake's starting top laner, Zz1tai, like a dog.

"Xiao Mo," Abu said, "Kalista is a must-ban or must-pick in this patch. If she's not banned, we can pick her first. Do you... have the confidence to try her out on the finals stage?"

Actually, Abu was a little apprehensive.

After all, practice matches are one thing, and the finals are another.

If you take a skateboard and walk on the road, and you make a mistake and get crushed, not only Lin Mo, but the coach will also be condemned for life.

But Lin Mo didn't hesitate for even a second, saying directly, "If I can take it, I will! Coach, if you dare let me choose, I dare to torture you to the very end!"

"Okay!" Abu nodded. Just then, WE finished their first ban round, and Kalista was still outside. He immediately said to Meiko, "Lock Kalista on the first floor!"

"Click!"

The lock-on sound rang out, and Kalista's portrait was frozen in EDG's first-floor champion selection box!

"EDG first-picked Kalista!" The commentator, Wawa, raised his voice. "No doubt about it! This version of Kalista is too strong in both lane dominance and dragon control; if she's allowed to play, she absolutely has to be the first pick!"

Meanwhile, at WE's match venue.

Head coach Hongmi showed no sign of panic.

"It's okay, Kalista is strong, but it's within our expectations." Redmi casually scribbled on the tactics board. "We'll pick Kog'Maw and Lulu. Mystic, are you confident against Kalista?"

Mystic, the brother-in-law, nodded confidently: "Don't worry, coach. My Kog'Maw has a longer range than her in the late game. With Lulu's protection, I can easily kill her in team fights."

"Very good." Redmi nodded in satisfaction, then walked behind 957 and said, "957, this time you just pick the most comfortable top laner on the fifth floor and play it safe."

"Understood." 957 took a deep breath, his eyes fixed intently on the screen, already mentally rehearsing how he would take revenge later.

As the draft phase progressed rapidly, the lineups of both sides gradually came to light.

WE decisively locked in Lee Sin and Lulu on the first and second floors;

EDG's second and third floors picked Orianna and Gragas;

WE added Kog'Maw on the third and fourth floors, forming the classic "Kog'Maw + Lulu" composition.

In their fourth pick, WE gave Xiye Taliyah to increase his mid-game global support capabilities.

Then it came to EDG's last two picks.

At this point, EDG's lineup already included Orianna, Gragas, and Kalista; they were still missing a top laner and a support.

On the fourth floor of EDG, they spotted a burly man carrying a huge security door – Braum, the Heart of Freljord.

No one was surprised.

However, when EDG's fifth pick was revealed, the three commentators in the commentary booth were completely stunned.

"All things in the world are tied to a single arrow!"

Ashe, the Frost Archer!

Seeing Ashe locked in by EDG, Wawa's jaw almost dropped to the ground: "EDG already has Kalista! Why did they pick Ashe? What does this mean? Could it be...?"

Miller reacted quickly, replying, "Kalista and Ashe... then there's only one possibility... Zet is playing Ashe bot lane, so Kalista... can only be top lane!"

These words caused an uproar in the room!

The live stream chat was flooded with comments that filled the entire screen:

"Holy crap, top lane Kalista?!"

"EDG has gone mad! They've even brought an AD top laner to the finals!"

"Is the 'God of Chaos' no longer just a casual player? Is he starting to show off his skills?!"

"What kind of insane draft is this! Kalista in top lane? If she gets caught, she's dead in no time!"

"Leg Bro's gone numb. He just said he wanted to go head-to-head with Mo, and then the other side pulled out a long-armed monster!"

"Dude, 957 got crushed last game because he played too casually. Did you really think my Leg Bro was a pushover?"

"WE hasn't even picked their fifth-floor counter pick yet, and EDG dares to pick their AD top laner first? Have they never died before?"

"What's that saying again? AD carries in the top lane..."

"I bet ten bucks, if EDG's top laner doesn't get crushed this game, I'll just go for it!"

"EDG's lineup gives me the feeling of watching a Bronze-level ranked game..."
