You actually want me to...

After a series of bizarre maneuvers, everyone was completely dumbfounded.

"No...why did you buy this thing?"

"I was just thinking that I was about to run out of autographs from the players to give back to the fans, so I was planning to get something else as a gift. You know, this appearance combined with the player's autograph would be a guaranteed hit, right?"

"Brilliant."

Everyone was practically bowing down in amazement at this guy's imagination. If the winner happened to be a student majoring in a related field, they'd probably be speechless on the spot.

To put it simply, RNG's roster is more stable overall than TES's.

According to the NBA, defense wins championships. At this time, RNG was really aiming for the championship and the World Championship. Although they all looked harmless, they were not necessarily very tough on the field.

At this point, the strategy for the white crescent moon becomes quite simple.

Trust the players, in short – “Search for them.”

If I can't beat you head-on, I'll resort to underhanded tactics. I'll try every possible winning strategy. I'll throw the steering wheel to Roland and let him choose how to annoy... cough cough, no, how to defeat the opponent.

Soon, the second one.

It's worth mentioning that the commentators for this match were the three Onmyoji giants from the cafeteria, namely Colonel Remember and Cat Emperor. It was precisely because Colonel Remember was on the commentary desk that Roland was no longer able to use the rocket tactic to request the power of metaphysics, which was really frustrating.

They're back, they're all back, the familiar taste.

[The Cafeteria's Three Musketeers, ready to go!]

First and foremost, there's JKL, who possesses the virtue of steadiness...

[To rebuild the glory of an all-Chinese team, whoever wins has an undeniable responsibility!]

JKL and GALA are currently the two most popular bot lane AD carries in the LPL. Their presence in a match is practically the Spring Festival Gala of esports. If we really want to find an AD carry with even greater popularity than them, we'll have to wait another six months until a certain god returns.

At least for now, the audience has definitely given us plenty of face.

First round of bans:

RNG: Senna, Thresh, Renekton

TES: Xin Zhao, Ezreal, Lucian

The six bans were quite stable, and RNG didn't target TES's Gragas like other teams did. Firstly, because Gragas isn't a must-ban or must-pick pick; he's just a versatile champion. Secondly... they, RNG, can also pick him.

One round of PICK:

RNG: Lee Sin (first pick) + Volibear Kai'Sa

TES: Verus Rumble (first and second time) + Silas

Second round bans: Sett, Swain, Nautilus, LeBlanc

In their fourth pick, TES chose Leona.

Unlike White Crescent's imagined strategy of picking a mage support or an unpopular hero, Roland's mindset was particularly clear this time. He knew I was weak in the late game, but he also knew I was strong in the early game. Fortunately, he wasn't going to play any strategy that balanced the early, mid, and late game. He was going to play the early game against Roland!

All four heroes are early-to-mid game heroes (Sylas really is an early-to-mid game hero), are you scared yet?

After calming down, RNG picked Ryze and Braum for their last two picks.

This is the end.

RNG: Top lane Lee Sin, Jungle Volibear, Mid lane Ryze, Bot lane Kai'Sa + Braum

Now the question is, what's the best counter to Lee Sin?

In the current version, Lee Sin has high damage, fast wave clear, high burst damage, and mobility. Basically, apart from Renekton and Lucian, it's hard to find a hero who can lane against him and also fits into TES's early to mid-game fighting composition.

Iron Man, Werewolf, and Urgot are all capable fighters.

The problem is, this thing is designed to exploit unbalanced competitive environments and dominate those few meta heroes. It takes advantage of the fact that if you pick Lee Sin, the opponent won't dare to pick these less common heroes. So what do you do?

"The time to become famous has come. Although that thing is really trash now, there's no denying that it's very good at countering Lee Sin. Do you dare to pick it?"

Roland looked at Big Yellow on the other side of the seat with a very pleasant expression.

Because he usually plays unconventional roles, the other four players on the team can't pick their own roles too casually in order to increase their margin for error. Now that he's started picking traditional hard support roles, it's natural that he has to follow the same procedure.

There are routines, yes.

But is it weak? Yes, because it's not the right version yet.

Is it useful? Yes, because he was picked because he's good at lane matchups.

Whether or not a player dares to take the pick really depends on the player himself, especially if the opposing jungler is a weakling.

"Take it."

"Are you sure? If you win, you'll be stepping on the old guard to get ahead; if you lose, you'll be ridiculed on the forum for months. Think it through before you speak."

"take!"

This LPL rookie has just debuted. In four games, he was either barely passable or got completely crushed. The only redeeming quality he has is his ability to call for backup and his excellent anti-gank capabilities. His playstyle is rather cunning.

This is actually a pretty good evaluation.

But he was not content with this.

Being in the same team, almost every one of the four members of TES is a prodigy who amazed everyone as soon as they entered the LPL. Without exception, even if it was out of a herd mentality, he had to go up and take a gamble.

I drink wine with the heavens, as ten thousand silver needles are scattered across the rivers!

This arena will eventually become the whetstone for his fame. In that case, take it!

Seeing that Da Huang was determined, Roland finally opened the hero list and selected that specific hero in the last few seconds.

This will be a massacre.

Barbarian King - Locked on!

P.S.: An old friend asked me to help recommend a book. This guy is one of the very few authors who can finish a book after I bribe him. He has two long novels to prove it, and he's also a prolific writer.

So how could Zuo Ge's cronies be on the death list? That's all slander! Slander!!!

PY: "Starting with Yukino's Life, I'm Not Human Anymore"

Synopsis: Lone Ranger Takuya Uehara obtains a system called "Experience Life," and his first target is Yukino Yukinoshita.

This system is absolutely full of positive energy.

The host can use this system to improve themselves in various aspects.

Even if you, host, no longer want to be human, this system can help you achieve that.

"Although controlling the bodies of non-human beings can bring me many benefits, this time..."

Takuya Uehara glanced at the tourists watching him outside the aquarium and knew that he had turned into a penguin this time.

So he managed to get paper and a pen, and held up the note that read, "Do you recharge QQ coins?" to the tourists.

Sedimentation: Chapter Thirty-Seven: Information Gap is Always the Biggest Weapon.

"The Barbarian King?"

"This champion doesn't seem quite right, does it? Maybe Tryndamere is a support?"

"No, the hero was given to the top lane, it really was Wayward picking Tryndamere."

"Wow, TES is really daring to gamble."

On stage, the three Yin-Yang brothers were completely dumbfounded.

It's not that we haven't seen TES come up with anything interesting, but you should at least consider who's playing it. If the other four members of TES played it, they wouldn't think it's anything special, and they might even feel it's a bit innovative, because their skill level is there, and anything they can bring out won't be too bad.

Especially in the hands of the King of the Hill, this hero can even shine with extraordinary magic.

Are you betting your life on a rookie filling in at the last minute? Are you looking down on me, the future Tiger Guardian, or on me, the top lane Tiger General? Have you never died before?

Moreover, there is a big problem with deploying barbarians at this time.

That means he can't bring TP.

Why was Tryndamere allowed in the mid lane in the original Season 11? Because the mid lane Tryndamere could take Flash and Ghost. Anyone who has played Tryndamere knows how important Ghost is to him. So why did he later appear in the top lane?

That's because Teleport has been nerfed, making it possible for top laners to play without Teleport.

Therefore, releasing this item at this time is essentially TES assuming that no one will come to help the top lane during team fights, putting the pressure on the other four players and placing their hopes on Wayward.

You're saying this choice is a gamble?

That's right. If you can't beat them, you have to find another way. If you know you can't beat them, why use their known tricks? You might as well just surrender and let everyone go home early instead of wasting those few tens of minutes. To win, you have to use every trick in the book within the reasonable rules. If a move can bring victory, then use it!

Lost? Take the blame.

We won. It was a huge win.

White Crescent's idea was that simple; it was a gamble, but it was right.

Finally, I've seen this thing on the field! My youth is over.

This is why I enjoy watching TES matches; they always manage to pull off some amazing plays.

Isn't this way more exciting than other competitions? Everyone over there keeps saying LCK's macro-management is great, I just laugh. It's like someone saying Boruto is good—I don't find it exciting at all.

Of the three brothers, Man, Yi, and Xin, only Yi is missing.

To be honest, Barbarian King was already quietly becoming popular at this time, but he hadn't yet entered the public eye.

At the same time.

Tryndamere actually has the highest win rate among top laners. On Korean server op.gg, his win rate as a top laner is 52%, ranking 8th. Nemesis played Tryndamere in 88 games at Challenger rank 800 on the Korean server with a 63% win rate.

This is why White Crescent and Roland knew it was a gamble, but still dared to let Wayward take it.

Information asymmetry is always the biggest weapon.

They even dared to guarantee that RNG's coaching staff didn't know about this thing, because although Tryndamere has the highest win rate in the Chinese server, the characteristics of this hero itself determine that he is not suitable for use in competitions, and the win rate is affected by the number of games played. Even if you use him less but win more, you can still have the highest win rate, which is exactly the biggest misinformation.

Upon entering the game, both junglers tacitly chose to start by clearing the map from bottom to top.

With Braum in the bottom lane, theoretically no kills should be possible there. On the other hand, the two warriors in the top lane look like they're not easy to deal with, and they might start fighting at any moment. Isn't that clear?
