You actually want me to...

Look, this team is just so adorable (laughs)

Can other teams do it?

Unleashing their signature moves, seizing the rhythm, and disrupting the opponent's plans—that's why White Crescent, along with Roland, Knight, and Casa, unleashed their ultimate abilities in the third game.

In fact, this trick is quite effective.

In the fourth game, before Xiao Yang Shengjian even appeared, TES, facing FNC's desperate gamble with Hecarim, countered by giving Roland a Zilean.

In this game, jungler SELFMADE finally experienced what it means to be the world's malice.

Slow down, stun, revive!

The three-part "disgusting" technique was used, which immediately rendered FNC's carefully prepared black technology useless, and also made the LCK teams watching from the sidelines feel a chill.

"Is this what you meant by his specialty being support champions?"

"Ahem, we only found out later that the information on the so-called Baidu search here can be arbitrarily changed by a mysterious organization called the 'Strategic Deception Bureau,' but it has been restored in the last two days."

"Seriously, with his playing style, how come he hasn't been killed by people from his own region?"

"According to another search engine, it seems to be because he is skilled in a certain style of boxing, and there are comments saying that the hero Jin Fu is based on him."

DWG coach Zefa: ? ? ?

Although Zefa couldn't understand it, it sounded really impressive.

Only after watching TES finally destroy FNC's Nexus did they put away their notebooks and turn to walk towards their own team's training room.

Although FNC did not fully force TES to show their true strength.

But at least, they've seen some of the things they wanted to see.

-------------------------------------

On the other side, the moment TES successfully advanced to the semifinals, LPL's various live broadcast rooms were flooded with "Congratulations TES" messages.

【666666】

[I never imagined a support player could be so impactful; Banhuang's value has skyrocketed at Worlds.]

With a vast roster of heroes, a master strategist, and a master of gimmicks, plus a seemingly incredibly cheap contract, TES is bound to make a killing this year!

[FNC... Oh well, it's the same every year anyway. I've overcome my mental block before, so let's just assume he's here to buy things for me.]

That's how real the competition is.

Where there is laughter, there will naturally be tears.

Among FNC's players, the one with the most tortuous career is their AD carry, Rekkles. Unfortunately, after the defeat in S7, Rekkles lost his aura as a genius AD carry and has never risen again since.

Although everyone felt sorry for him, they didn't escalate the situation to an extreme. After all, he wasn't one of their own, and this guy was indeed too handsome, which might attract some resentment.

Although this round of the knockout stage was a little bumpy, Roland felt no more nervous after winning the match.

He knew that reaching the quarterfinals was a hurdle.

Since S7, almost every LPL team that reaches the quarterfinals has undergone a significant transformation.

In the S8 match between IG and KT, the horn of victory sounded for the first time.

In S9, FPX's roaming skills against FNC reached their peak.

EDG vs. RNG in S11, well, that's not really anything special, since everyone in the world knows that EDG's transformation in S11 came from WE and the world's best player, Tang.

However, according to the principle that things should not happen more than three times, it can be equivalent to three.

The quarterfinals of S10 are still very important. Look, the team's problems were exposed in the second game.

As for the upcoming semi-finals and finals?

I have no shame before Heaven, no shame before Earth, no shame before my teammates, and no shame before my conscience.

Just cover your head and keep fighting forward, that's the right way.

Ascension: Chapter 46: World-Class ADC Passive

The next day.

When the TES team gathered in front of the screen again, they had gone from being actors to spectators. After all, it's the knockout stage, and there's nothing wrong with watching the live stream and learning something.

Of course, while watching the show, you'll definitely be eating something. Although TES doesn't have any so-called "foolish culture," they will still try their best to satisfy the necessary sense of ritual.

"If you ask me, watching a game means you should eat snacks. You heretics are going a bit too far." Looking at the large and small takeout boxes next to his teammates, Knight, who had only bought snacks before the party, felt that his intelligence had been insulted.

"Young man, you haven't played enough matches. If the venue allowed, I would definitely set up a hot pot for you," Casa said while gnawing on a pig's trotter.

“Indeed, but the mala tang is no different. This flavor is strong enough. By the way, Ah Ban, why did you only buy side dishes? Not a single main dish?” White Crescent also voiced its doubts at the right time, looking at the various small boxes around Roland.

"Oh? It's alright, actually I only prepared two dishes."

Unlike her teammates who order takeout indiscriminately, Roland, who comes from a province known for its foodies, naturally knows how to eat in a way that is both satisfying and flexible.

After all, there are only two ways to eat it in China:

In the North: A flatbread can hold everything!

In the South: Broth is the key to cooking everything!

Roland, who combines the best of both North and South, can not only eat his own takeout to his heart's content, but also occasionally dine on the food ordered by his teammates. He has truly mastered the art of "eating".

The second day's match was SN vs. JDG.

In this internal battle within his own region, Roland did not choose to live up to their expectations as the man they remembered, because times have changed.

LPL failed to win a single championship in S7, and the glory of the region was far more important to the players than the glory of their clubs.

But it is different now.

Two years of championships successfully ignited a wave of commercialized leagues. Even those who qualified carrying the hopes of their region often only had themselves on their minds. Rashly approaching the losers from the same region would not only fail to elicit a friendly response, but could also very likely result in them being treated as victors and bullied.

Although TES and JDG are quite familiar with each other in some ways.

Yes, although Roland did dislike JDG before his time travel, it is an undeniable fact that JDG's club was located next to TES's club for a long time. Putting aside the prejudices outside the arena, the "Thousand-Pound Brothers" who often treated people to meals were quite likable offline.

Who do you think will win?

"SN, of course. In terms of strength, JDG is naturally stronger, but in terms of form, SN is miles ahead of JDG." Without hesitation, Roland delivered his verdict. If he didn't know the original history, he would find it hard to believe that JDG, with its Redmi phone and stronger overall strength, would be completely dominated by its defeated opponent SN in an internal battle.

"I think it's JDG. Even if JDG plays normally, SN will have a hard time taking them down."

"Then let's just wait for the results."

For teams from their own region, it's good news whichever team advances. JDG has stronger overall strength and has defeated DWG, making them popular among viewers who value skill. SN, on the other hand, has a more flamboyant playstyle and their underdog status is attracting a lot of casual fans.

As for the result, SN naturally advanced.

Huanfeng, who was in the quarterfinals, had not yet been overtaken by the e-sports Kardashian. His signature Jhin had driven countless viewers crazy. Watching the increasingly confident Aquaman on the screen, Roland found it hard to believe that this person would lose control of his younger brother before the finals.

"What's wrong? Didn't SN win pretty well?"

"He is quite handsome, but the key question is whether he can stay handsome."

"I reckon it'll be a bit difficult." After thinking for a while, JKL suddenly blurted out this sentence.

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"You know, some people's wives have already quietly arrived."

Since they are all staying at the same hotel, it's impossible to keep things from everyone. However, the players in the industry generally have a tacit understanding and don't want to offend anyone, so they usually don't talk about many things to outsiders.

not to mention.

JKL's reputation as a top-tier AD carry off-stage is no joke. Even though the "Kardashian of esports" has tried to keep a low profile, she still ran into JKL while he was out buying late-night snacks. (JKL's world-class ADC passive: meaning that no matter how big the controversy off-stage, you can always find JKL involved.)

Looking at Huanfeng, who was giving a spirited interview on the screen, Roland sighed with a hint of regret.

SN in its past life.

Whether it was Bin, Black Angel, or Sofm, they all did their best. Black Angel, in particular, single-handedly held off Rongguang's advance, preventing him from providing support. However, no one expected that what would ultimately stop them from advancing was not their opponents, but their own incompetent teammates.

After SN advanced, the remaining two quarterfinal matches were also played without any suspense.

DWG easily defeated DRX, and Deft once again secured a place in the quarterfinals of the World Championship. GEN put up a strong fight against G2, but ultimately could not escape the curse of Perkz defeating one CJB per year.

The four teams that have now reached the final four are:

Upper bracket SN VS DWG

TES vs G2 in the lower bracket

For the LPL, the semifinal group draw is barely considered a medium one. However, the fact that two of the four teams are from the LPL indirectly proves the strength of the LPL region, at least until the final S-series champion is decided.

"Alright, we've lost four more teams in the training matches. From now on, we'll really have to rely on our sparring partners." Only at times like this could White Crescent truly appreciate the benefits of the sparring partners.

It smells so damn good.

All the League of Legends teams in the world except for the four teams that are currently in the top four are on holiday. If they want to play scrims, they can only play against teams from the other half of the bracket. Considering that if either team wins another round, they might become opponents, and both sides might even hold back in their matches.

But sparring partners are different. You can make them fight however you want, with all sorts of positions to choose from, until you're satisfied.

Besides, we're all in this together. If we win, they'll be credited as contributors to the championship; if we lose, they'll gain fans just as easily. All I have to do is take some time every few days to play a few practice matches with them. It's a win-win situation, isn't it?

The players gained experience, and the sparring partners gained fame.

Win-win!

Of course, Roland didn't forget to use a certain AD's negative example to teach his teammates the right lesson.

The word "color".

Before you win the final championship, you may only have one option in front of you.

But if you win the championship, regardless of whether the number of choices increases, at least the quality of the choices will be significantly higher.

Although this kind of pancake is quite airy, it's still very useful.

The so-called art of drawing a cake:

Elementary school, middle school, high school: You can relax and have fun when you get to university.

After holding back for 12 years...

University: If you don't work hard in university, are you just waiting to be eliminated in society?
