You actually want me to...

Of course, this only applies to competitions.

Even playing tank top lane in ranked games, you'll still get killed; there's a big difference between professional and casual games.

The rise of the mid-lane Everfrost means increased difficulty in engaging and an overflow of overall team damage. Due to the buff to the AD carry's Last Whisper, ADCs are now almost as fragile as paper when dealing with front-line tanks. Teams with top-tier AD carries have all received a buff overnight.

With the front line unable to hold, the two carries dealing excessive damage, and the junglers both being disruptive, the support role naturally becomes more dynamic.

The Titan Sun Maiden, who can withstand damage, is incredibly fragile.

Due to the buffs to AD carries, all the various mage supports that can deal damage are no longer viable (when picking a mage support in the bot lane, the AD carry has to bear the pressure; it's playable when the AD carry is low on damage and prone to dying, but once the AD carry's damage increases, the support has to give way).

As a result, hook-type supports have become popular again.

Anyway, I can't withstand the damage, so I might as well try to control the enemy as much as possible. Before the team fight, I'll use a hook to try my luck and kill someone. If it hits, I'll be able to kill everyone.

With this in mind, Thresh immediately climbed to the No.1 support rank in the ranked ladder.

"So... Coach, the point of this meeting is to tell me that I've been epically nerfed?" Roland pointed to his head and glanced at the patch notes with a bit of annoyance.

"Pretty much, but I remember you already started the transformation, right? How's the progress?"

"I practiced playing Yuumi through countless bad games, Emmm... I also practiced playing a support champion in ARAM, which is pretty strong on that map, but I don't know how it will feel in an official match."

"You weren't exposed in training matches or on the Korean server account, were you?"

"No, I was very careful."

Although Roland didn't say, White Crescent had a rough idea of ​​which hero it was. Perhaps it could be used as "Yogg-Saron" in tomorrow's match. Of course, it's best to avoid using such a strategic weapon that doesn't distinguish between friend and foe.

Of course, although it takes a long time to practice soft support, Roland was still quite pleased that he was willing to practice White Crescent. He couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder and exclaimed, "Not bad. Last year I begged you to practice, but you wouldn't listen. You've really grown this year."

Upon hearing this, Roland straightened up slightly and proudly replied, "That's right! After firing so many AA cannons, I won't run away anymore! AA people, take off!!!"

"Wait... what the heck is AA people?"

"Oh, it's nothing, just a new identity I got during the offseason."

White crescent moon: ? ? ?

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

The following day, as the players from both teams reunited backstage at the venue, an unsurprisingly groping hand quietly touched Roland's pectoral muscles and was slowly descending at a very subtle pace.

"Senior Xiaohu, I have a girlfriend."

"I know, I don't mind."

"But I mind!" Seeing Top Tiger's increasingly strange smile, Roland was so frightened that he pulled Ah Le next to him and forcibly stuffed him into Little Tiger's arms, taking advantage of the gap in their interaction to quickly separate them.

Ah Le: ?

Seeing the low-budget "Lu Benwei" forcibly stuffed into his arms, Xiaohu finally stopped groping and returned to normal a bit. He then quickly asked Ale for advice on top lane issues.

Ah Le: ? ? ?

What the hell?

Before the Spring Split started, they wouldn't even give me 100 yuan.

Before he even got angry, the opposing team had already started to back down and resort to physical violence after the Spring Split began.

Although Ale harbored resentment towards the RNG club itself, one can't refuse a smiling face. As a newcomer, he was somewhat flattered when a senior player earnestly asked him for advice.

To put it bluntly, what he really hates is the club behind him, RNG.

As for the players?

The contestants barely exchanged a few words, so how could they possibly have any deep-seated hatred for each other?

At a glance, Xiaohu was asking Ale a question backstage, Xiaoming was flirting with JKL, Knight and Guozi were chatting together, and Gala, Hahuang and Wei were watching their positions like they were watching monkeys.

With this atmosphere in the backcourt, someone who didn't know better might think it was the first team.

Here it comes again, TES, why is it another Avengers scenario?

[This is what a naturally villainous face looks like; it's an inherent passive ability of TES.]

[It doesn't matter what, can the competition start already?]

[GOGOGO! Fast forward to the hero's microphone.]

Unlike the players, the audience are all incredibly entertaining and would love for the two sides to actually fight on the field. Please don't let them try to manipulate things; the more annoying the better.

The first match started very quickly.

Of course, it ended quickly.

The group, who hadn't played against RNG after their S11 reorganization, only knew about RNG from their matches against other teams. Only after getting up close and personal with the team could Roland and the others understand the key to RNG's winning streak.

These guys are shameless!

The mid laner ganks top at level two, teleports at level three, the jungler stays in the top lane, and the support occasionally comes up to check things out before level six. Ale can only put some pressure on Xiaohu in lane at level one, but later on, when Xiaohu gathers the power of the three "daddy"s, no matter how Ale plays, he can only accept being killed.

When Ah Le returned to the locker room after the match, he was already starting to feel a bit disoriented.

"Beasts, a bunch of beasts!"

"I thought the way we helped 369 during last year's Spring Split was already pretty inhuman, but these bastards are even worse. Glancing top at level two, is this something a carbon-based organism could pull off???"

Roland vomited.

Which commander would have thought that the mid, jungle, and support could help the top laner to this extent? Before the match, he heard from other teams that RNG was currently using a four-protect-one strategy. Considering the current meta, they thought they were protecting the AD carry. Turns out, you guys were protecting Top Tiger in the top lane!?

That's just ridiculous!

"To be fair, even if we have a four-protect-one strategy, and even if Ale falls behind in one lane while the other lanes get ahead, we can still fight. But the question is, who did he learn Gnar from? His timing for using his ultimate and entering the fight in team fights is so good?"

The white crescent moon was confused.

Although Xiaohu often seeks advice from other top laners when he switches to the top lane, this is, after all, a matter of livelihood. What idiot would teach away their core skills for no reason? And their playstyle is so despicable.

and many more...

Perhaps thinking of something, White Crescent suddenly turned around, staring intently at a certain support player who was joining his teammates in criticizing RNG's inhuman tactics.

"Board."

"what?"

Have you played duo queue with Xiaohu recently, or has he asked you any questions?

"No way, he's a top laner, how could I teach him top lane playstyle? But lately, Ming on the other side has been asking me to duo queue bot lane a lot. He's been playing all sorts of warrior-type top lane combinations really well. Let me tell you, at this rate, I might be able to meet my KPI by the middle of this month. Coach, aren't I amazing?"

The rest of the people in the room: ......

Summary: Chapter 110: Using their own methods against them.

It wasn't until he was thoroughly lectured during halftime that Roland realized what had happened around him. He had initially wondered if Ming was also trying out a new support playstyle by duo-queuing with him in the bot lane, but upon looking back, he realized that his duo partner was likely someone using his ID, Xiao Hu?

You mean N in person, what's that R thing?

This is intolerable! Grandpa can tolerate it, but Grandma cannot!

Since the other side acted immorally first, they shouldn't be blamed for retaliating too excessively.

"Now that you've said that, Aban, what are your plans for this round?"

"Use their own methods against them."

"Oh, I see. You mean to engage them head-on in a 5v5 battle and see who can provide support faster?" White Crescent thought for a moment and it seemed like this was indeed a viable option. Aban's support player was also the one who liked to roam to the top lane, and with the individual skill of the players, a 5v5 might not necessarily be a loss.

"No, I mean, only magic can defeat magic."

"Eh!???"

Ten minutes later, when the players from both sides returned to their seats, the TES players' condition had clearly improved. At least from God's perspective, Ale should have been mentally broken, but this time, his expression showed a bit of eagerness, and he even occasionally showed a very subtle smile.

"This...it seems that TES discussed a strategy against RNG during the halftime break." After glancing at TES's unstoppable momentum, Ji De couldn't help but become extremely interested in TES's second game.

Based on his understanding of TES.

In this state, TES will either explode, pull off some amazing plays, or completely dominate the game.

Of course, he thought it was most likely to be one of the first two.

"It's hard to say. If TES can't find a way to counter RNG's all-in-one strategy, the encirclement and reinforcement tactics will still make it very difficult for TES. The main reason is that RNG has mastered this tactic, and it's unrealistic to expect them to come up with a counter-tactic immediately." Based on the principle of balancing TES and RNG, Guan Ge unhesitatingly sided with RNG and gave them a boost.

Both teams are among the top teams in the standings and are top-tier. Only by separating the teams in this way can a delicate balance be maintained during the commentary.

Of course, trouble immediately broke out at this station.

[It's over, RNG is completely finished.]

[With the Colonel's power unleashed, his magic is boundless! How can RNG possibly compete with TES now?]

[Is this toxic? He didn't say anything after the first game, but started complaining after we won? This guy's definitely a mole sent by TES.]

[It's a sure thing, this game is in the bag, let's search all the beans for TES.]

When some people speak, it is a prophecy.

When some people speak, it's a settled matter.

Guan Zeyuan in S11 was extremely terrifying. He sacrificed the luck of the entire night in the cafeteria. Almost anyone he jinxed would die, and anyone he criticized would explode. Of course, he himself was completely unaware of this. Even if he was, seeing the five rockets that Roland sent as a visitor (visitor ID: RNG will win) in his live stream the night before the match, he would pretend that it didn't happen at all.

As a professional commentator, he believes in science.

The match began quickly.

First round of bans:

TES: Ornn, Thresh, Kai'Sa

RNG: Zoe, Gragas, Lillia

In the current version, due to the buffs to AD carries and the nerfs to top lane's "coughing blood" (a specific ability), the Aphelios-Ornn combo has become incredibly terrifying. The damage output of an Aphelios with an advantage and upgraded items from Ornn is simply terrifying; those who know, know. As for Kai'Sa and Thresh, who are ranked in the top tier of bot lane, they definitely cannot be allowed to play.

RNG's draft picks were also quite interesting.

Banning Zoe, who has strong lane dominance, and banning Lillia forces you to pick AP champions in the mid lane. Currently, most AP champions don't have strong solo kill potential in lane, which is better than letting champions like Irelia and Samira be released. This creates a better laning environment for Guozige in the mid lane.

As for Gragas, both sides have already tacitly agreed that the meta supports are Alistar and Raiel, so giving Gragas to Roland would be purely annoying, and TES could even pick him as a flex pick. Banning him would undoubtedly be the best option.

The two teams have different drafting strategies.

TES's strategy was to ban as many meta heroes as possible, shifting the competition from one ban for one ban and two bans for two bans for everyone, ensuring fair competition. RNG, on the other hand, wanted to create space for the mid laner to perform, preventing their weakest player, Guozi, from being completely dominated by Knight in lane.
