LOL: Do I have to be a spinning top too?

The child should hold their head with both hands in an inverted triangle position.

"Oh my god! Ashe, the healer, is here?"

"What kind of lineup is this?! Tao Tao's amazing!"

Crystal leaned closer to the screen, a strange look on his face.

"I don't understand!"

"Monkey, Master Ai, and the healer—they all have hook damage?"

"Hard to say! I feel like this nanny is foreshadowing something!"

AJ's eyes darted around:

"When Glory played Vayne before, he could easily carry the team to 4v1 with Lulu."

"This wet nurse's milk production is even more intense than Lulu's; who knows what kind of cutting-edge technology she's using."

Letme frowned slightly:

"The bot lane of Ashe and Soraka is indeed weak in lane, but they have a strong ability to sustain in lane."

"If the game drags on to the mid-game, Ashe's ultimate can initiate team fights, and with a healer providing sustain, kiting can be quite annoying."

"But TT has Yuumi and Sivir on their side, they clear waves quickly and have shields, if they farm normally, TES's bot lane will definitely be silent."

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan's voice rose a few decibels.

"Top Esports' decision was truly unexpected!"

"They started with Monkey King and Ashe, and I thought Top Esports was going to force a lane control."

"But this healer combination is really strange!"

"In terms of overall compatibility, it is indeed not as solid as the classic combination of cat and Sivir."

Rita nodded, her gaze falling on the BP interface:

"Yes, now we can only wait and see what heroes will be chosen next."

"TES has two positions left unfilled, one in the mid lane and one in the top lane. It's obvious that they've reserved the counter-position for top laner Glory. We'll see how TT responds."

The comments section exploded.

[Was TES's draft picks just randomly chosen? What's with Ashe and Soraka?]

[Could it be that the healer is going to be the top laner?]

[A healer in the top lane? Don't be ridiculous, Glory playing a healer is a no-brainer!]

  

[Is this lineup relying entirely on Monkey King for damage? Are the coaching staff just sitting around doing nothing?]

[Don't worry, TES still hasn't picked their top and mid laners, they might have a surprise strategy.]

TT players' bench.

Coach Along stood behind Huanfeng, looking at the three heroes locked on the opposing team, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Are you confident in defeating the healer and using Frostbite?"

Huanfeng leaned back in his chair, a slight smile playing on his lips, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"Hit me however you like."

His tone was very flat:

"I can keep them from leaving their tower during the laning phase."

Along nodded.

"That's fine then."

"Top Esports clearly wants Glory to have a counter-pick role so he can carry, so this game we'll focus on the bot lane and dominate it!"

He turned to look at Kitagawa, who was in the jungle position.

"Beichuan, capture your main character now, Velociraptor, understand?"

Kitagawa nodded, his eyes full of confidence.

This jungler, who also came from the same background as the King of the Rift and is known as one of the "Two Norths of the Rift" along with streamer Beifeng, has absolute confidence in his ganks.

If the bottom lane collapses, even if Glory in the top lane carries, he can't withstand the explosive late-game damage output of a four-protect-one Sivir.

The second round of bans begins.

TT banned Vayne with two picks, and the first one was Vayne.

On the second move, after hesitating for nearly ten seconds, I finally put the fox in the ban list.

Guan Zeyuan's voice rang out at just the right moment.

"TT's two bans were very targeted. Vayne is Glory's signature champion, and Ahri is a way to limit the team's ability to engage with Wukong."

On TES's side, Chieh countered by banning Taliyah and Annie.

The presence of two mid-lane tempo heroes limits the possibility of TT's mid-jungle synergy.

TES fourth floor, lights up, lock on... Galio, the Colossus of Justice.

"Galio!"

Guan Zeyuan's voice rose.

"TES locked in Galio on the fourth floor! That means the counter pick is back in the top lane!"

"Galio mid, combined with Wukong jungle, makes this mid-jungle duo very strong in team fights."

Rita chimed in, "That's right, Galio's ultimate can provide Wukong with a second layer of protection when engaging, and it can also support the bot lane."

"But the problem is, Galio's damage isn't enough. Where will TES's core damage dealer be in the late game?"

The selection process is quick, taking place on the fourth or fifth floor of TT.

The fourth floor locks in Ryze, the Rune Mage, for the mid lane.

The fifth floor revealed the Lava Beast... no, it only lasted a second before being replaced by Ornn, the Mountain-Hidden Flame.

locking.

Guan Zeyuan looked at TT's lineup and exclaimed in admiration.

"TT's lineup looks perfect, with good strength in the early, mid, and late game! Ornn can even provide items!"

"Top lane Ornn initiates team fights while under pressure, jungler Xin Zhao joins in, mid laner Ryze roams to provide support, and bot lane Sivir and Yuumi firmly control the lane..."

"This lineup has a very high margin for error. In the late game, Ornn can provide equipment for his teammates, and Ryze and Sivir can maximize their damage output. The potential for team fights is extremely high."

Rita nodded.

"Now it all depends on what Top Esports' final pick will be, and whether it can overcome Top Esports' current roster disadvantage."

All eyes were focused on the hero icon on the fifth floor of TES, which was still not lit up.

Posture: Leaning forward:

"How should I say it? How should I say it?"

"Is Glory going to put on a show with his invincible giant dog?"

Letme shook his head.

"Nasus has a hard time against Ornn. Ornn can pressure Nasus in lane, and his impact in team fights is no worse than Nasus's."

Crystal squinted.

"Impossible, Nasus. If they pick Nasus again with this lineup, TES will be at a disadvantage in all three lanes in the early game, and the Monkey King's jungle will be completely destroyed by Kitagawa."

AJ scratched his head.

"What is that? Vayne has already been banned."

"Varus is basically out of the question. Ornn and Xin Zhao can easily dive Varus's tower."

Right under the spotlight.

The hero portrait frames on the fifth floor of TES slowly lit up.

An unexpected profile picture appeared on the screen.

Darius, the Hand of Noxus.

The moment the lock was activated, the entire venue was silent for half a second, then erupted in gasps more intense than ever before.

The screen was instantly flooded with comments.

Holy crap! Darius!

[The Hand of Noxus! What a daring pick!]

Is this really Glory coming on stage? Isn't it General Sunny Day?

[He can even play Darius? Just how deep is this guy's champion pool?]

Is TES going to play a four-protect-one strategy with Darius in the top lane? What kind of retro playstyle is this?

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan paused for a second, then raised his voice.

"I never expected TES to have Darius as their hidden trump card!"

"This combination isn't actually that bad. Darius with a support like Soraka definitely has the ability to carry the game!"

"It's well known that Darius's weakness is his short range and vulnerability to kiting, but with a support like Soraka providing healing and silence, his survivability in team fights will increase significantly!"

Rita chimed in, her tone filled with surprise.

"Moreover, Darius has a natural advantage against Ornn. Ornn's tankiness is no match for Darius. Once his Bloodrage is stacked, his true damage can kill squishy targets faster, and even tanks are taken down in just a few hits."

"Glory has once again pulled out an unexpected hero."

Crystal held his head in his hands, his face filled with shock.

"I, Yare! The sassy Darius has arrived!"

When AJ saw Darius's profile picture, it seemed to bring back some unpleasant memories.

In that year's S5, his Darius and Renekton were thoroughly outplayed by SKT's top laner Marin, becoming the first LPL player to be remembered by audiences worldwide as a spinning top.

He shrank his neck.

"This is a hero..."

Letme then began to analyze the situation seriously.

"Darius is indeed an easy opponent for sheep!"

"I have the right to speak on this!"

"Ornn's W skill is practically useless against Darius; Darius's outer Q can easily hit Ornn."

"Furthermore, Ornn's mobility can be blocked by Darius. Once Darius applies Bloodrage, Ornn will inevitably lose in a trade."

Taizi smiled as he listened to AJ's hesitation.

"Big, sharp hook, are you reminded of the fear of being dominated by Maverick in Season 5?"

On the other end, the IG trio had already connected to their microphones.

Ning leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and stared at Darius's portrait on the screen, his face full of surprise.

"Not a buddy?"

"How many heroes does he actually play?"

"Our team played a lot of scrims with them, and he never used Darius."

Yu Wenbo shook his head, his tone equally puzzled.

"Don't ask me, I'm not at the base, I don't know."

"This kid is really good at hiding things."

"Vain Varus was already outrageous enough, now they've even pulled out Darius."

TheShy stared at Darius's portrait on the screen, a slight smile playing on his lips, and slowly uttered a sentence in his signature Korean-accented Chinese.

"Big Tiger, you're awesome."

The hero positions have been finalized!

The lineups for both sides have been confirmed.

Blue team: TT vs TES: Red team

Top Lane: The Mountain's Flame vs. Darius

[Jungle: Xin Zhao vs. Wukong]

Mid Lane: Ryze vs. Colossus
