You actually want me to...

Then, FPX went silent.

Although Shuizi isn't a big fan of the Prophet's playstyle, it's fine to change things up occasionally, and it's better than Lan Ge's style anyway.

Just a quick note: although Shuizi always teases Lan Ge, their relationship is actually quite good. It's just that JKL simply thinks he's bad at the game.

Objectively speaking, in terms of effort alone, Lan Ge has played a lot of ranked games.

As for why the match was filled with an odd atmosphere... Emmm, I can only say that he might have a big problem with his mentality. But in any case, at least he did one thing that other IG supports could only dream of, and that was his ability to align with the team.

Yes, although his style may seem overly cautious, he is actually a very intelligent player. From the beginning, he knew that he was not as skilled as his opponent, and that without skills, he would be easily worn down by the opponent if he stood in the front line. He was also weaker at seizing opportunities than his opponent. In other words, he was quite aware that in a 2v2 situation, the probability of him making a mistake was higher than that of Ah Shui in a 1v2 situation.

So, he cleverly chose to hide behind AD and let AD take the pressure.

In any case, if they lose due to a disadvantage, the AD carry takes the blame; if they have an advantage, he steps up and uses champions like Rakan to make amazing plays and initiate team fights to save face. At his peak, he even earned the title of the world's best support for a short period of time.

What comes to mind when you see this?

All I can say is that he reminds me of a great nation whose ability to choose sides is world-renowned, whose opportunism is lamentable, whose understanding of the world surpasses even Hydra, and whose actions have made countless war strategists bow their heads in shame.

There's no way around it, Lan Ge's professional gaming skills are just too similar.

Without the top laner disrupting the game, FPX is currently no match for TES in a matchup focused on their two carries. The main reason is that the opponent didn't pick Nocturne; otherwise, the bot lane matchup would have been very difficult to predict once it got dark.

TES narrowly won today's match 2-1.

With this, TES has officially returned to the top four in the Spring Split standings, already showing a hint of the glory of their former "Four Kings".

Off the field, the top teams watched the output comparison of this game and gradually began to think about the purpose of TES.

If you were to say that you'd replace the support player because of this minor version issue, they absolutely wouldn't believe you. Putting aside the glaring lack of synergy, the incompatibility of their styles and the vastly different initiation abilities alone are enough to rule him out.

Think differently.

Compared to this player who has been a professional for many years and whose hero pool is basically all support champions, other teams will definitely have a bigger headache with Roland, whose hero pool is unfathomable and you have no idea what he will pull out next game.

Given this, it's worth exploring TES's intentions in doing so.

At this moment, TES fans (and haters) suddenly started discussing it online, and the decision to suddenly change the support player really baffled them.

It's not a question of winning or losing.

Without Roland, a player full of attacking prowess and entertaining moments, the level of excitement in the match dropped several notches, directly impacting the viewing experience.

[It's proven that TES can't do without Aban, just like a man can't do without his penis.]

To be honest, even takeout didn't taste so good for the last game.

[If we don't deliver to the bottom of the road, it just doesn't feel right, okay?]

[TES support player suspected of having disagreements with AD carry - jpg]

Under these inexplicable circumstances, even rumors of discord within the team quickly began to circulate.

Of course, it will disappear very quickly.

TES's approach was quite simple: place a hero microphone!

In just over a minute of audio clip, the online narrative shifted instantly from suspected discord between the TES bot lane duo to suspected coming out as gay, a remarkably rapid change in public opinion.

Of course, most of them were just jokes.

[TES' voice communication is absolutely amazing.]

[I almost choked on my food when 369 called out "Dad, come here!"]

[The bottom lane too, what the hell, tried it on the bed, on the sofa, in the kitchen, on the balcony, even in the hallway and the toilet, what kind of lewd talk is this?]

No wonder people online say that professional players usually pair AD carries and supports in the same bed; indeed, synergy is built through shared sleeping arrangements.

【? ? ? 】

The video, which is less than four minutes long, has seen its views increase rapidly through word of mouth among netizens, heading straight for a million views.

You might not know what it means to get a million views with just a four-minute video. We usually only use two words to describe this kind of person—genius. I often say that back in the day, if DaHaYu could get 2500 million views with 3000 yuan, my TES operations team could easily get hundreds of views with the Hero Microphone. We'll lay in wait for him, make sure this Weibo post is released simultaneously, buy a wave of trending topics, and quietly XXX (can you believe it?).

With the combined efforts of the club and its members, the entire LPL community knows that TES's bot lane duo seems to have developed some strange chemistry. What's particularly remarkable is that after this hype, JKL's fanbase has actually grown, leaving netizens completely dumbfounded.

"Good heavens, I didn't do anything, and I'm already a male ketone?" Roland, who was live-streaming, was completely bewildered by the online frenzy. He had only made a few casual remarks; was it really necessary to cause such a huge reaction?

"Haha, I'm starting to wonder if you've offended the club's management. You're really having a tough time."

"I want to know too, but the operations team doesn't work here. I've been locked up in the club for so long, and I don't even know who to get revenge on."

"No doubt about it, the club has really figured out how to handle traffic."

There was nothing they could do; the more they explained, the worse the public opinion would become. So Roland and Ah Shui simply pretended to be dead and started practicing the new hero together.

In fact, the version used in the S10 Spring Split was a rather strange version.

The top, mid, and jungle champions are strong, while the bot lane AD carry deals negligible damage. However, the elemental dragons force you to fight early on, making it difficult to pick an AD carry. At the beginning of the season, the initial thought was that since AD ​​carries were weak, we would fill the mid lane with a second damage dealer, leading to the popularity of mid laners like Azir, Corki, and Ryze.

However, as time went on, major clubs suddenly realized that instead of doing that, they might as well pick an AD carry to instantly kill your core, and also be able to fight in the early game. So heroes like Syndra and LeBlanc became very popular.

Now, the meta has shifted to both sides banning early-game AD carries, forcing them to pick late-game AD carries with mobility. This indirectly reduces the importance of the mid lane, making the support's champion pool crucial.

Because there are many teams in the LPL, and their styles are all different.

Some players prefer to play aggressively in the early game, while others prefer to play aggressively in the late game. Some enjoy split pushing, while others insist on a four-protect-one strategy. All sorts of tactical styles are flourishing. If TES wants to gain a foothold, it must have the strength to withstand these challenges.

As a result, the requirements for the team, especially the support role, have also increased.

He needs to be able to play offensive supports like Leona, Nautilus, and Thresh, as well as defensive supports like Braum and Tahm Kench, and even occasionally play a few enchanter supports (poke style and Aphelios enchanter support second choice after Thresh was banned).

To put it simply, the club wants Roland to be more versatile and highlight JKL's role, maximizing TES's bot lane advantage. This is because the mid, bot, and jungle are all very mature, while the top lane doesn't seem to have much hope in the short term. The support position is where results can be seen relatively quickly.

So, the hellish training began again.

of course,

If you want a horse to run, you have to give it grass.

The best food, the best medical team, the best fitness coach, and the best psychologist were all arranged. Then, a bonus was applied for to motivate him (compared to the signing fees of several big names, this was really a small amount of money). Everything was ready.

The hellish training had begun.

First Encounter: Chapter 80: Oscar-Winning Actor

A few days later...

When White Crescent watched Roland control Lulu, flashing into the fray to unleash his ultimate and knock up the opponent, he painfully covered his eyes.

My heart hurts here. (jpg)

It smells awful; this guy's soft support playstyle is just awful to the extreme.

Other players' support champions: Aside from providing necessary vision and harassment, they always stay in a relatively safe position, allowing the AD carry to selectively harass based on their abilities.

This guy's support build is suicidal initiation, high-damage build, and arrogant pressure. Playing a support like this, you can just run up to someone's head and poop, then get instantly killed by various crowd control abilities.

Simply put, it's either about dominating weaker opponents from start to finish, or being dominated by weaker opponents and having to support them in various ways. It's so true that even White Crescent's high blood pressure was revealed.

"No, you're playing Lulu, why are you laning so aggressively against Leona?"

"I have long reach and he has short reach, so I definitely need to pressure him in the early game."

"But your item build..."

“These days, AD carries die so easily, and random AD carries die even more easily. Instead of wasting all my gold on support items and watching them get instantly killed, I might as well build AD items myself and deal damage. Look at this game, my damage output is even higher than the AD carry’s.” After saying that, Roland showed his damage percentage for this game: ahead of the jungler and AD carry, he directly moved up to third place in the team, leaving White Crescent stunned.

That's damn good.

While what he said makes a lot of sense, is this how you play a support champion? You should apologize to all the support players in the world, you bastard!

Tired and disillusioned, Roland has completely given up on mastering pure support heroes; it's safe to say he's simply not suited for this type of hero.

It's not surprising; many players are like this. Can they play certain meta heroes? Yes, they can. But if you say they play them well, there's something off about them. It's simply a matter of the hero and the player not being a good match.

However, Roland is not without hope of recovery.

While his pure support play can be quite unconventional, he does show improvement with certain somewhat oddly positioned support champions, especially Bard. Bard's dominance in his hands is incredible, his ultimate accuracy is reliable, and he synergizes well with Bard's roaming. The only downside is that Bard has a slight obsessive-compulsive tendency; he can easily disappear while picking up items.

Roland is reaping significant benefits here, while TES's winning streak continues on the field.

After the Prophet entered the game, TES completely outplayed the POKE lineup, leaving other teams bewildered. All the strategies they had prepared against TES suddenly became ineffective, and they had to start all over again.

It was during this routine process that two major events occurred.

First: With the wins meeting the requirements, TES has already stepped into the playoffs. As long as they win their next match against RNG, they will have secured their playoff ticket.

Second: With everyone's efforts, the natural disaster temporarily subsided, the domestic environment was unsealed, and the teams finally escaped the miserable days of being trapped in the club and began to compete live for the long time.

Of course, there were definitely no audience members present.

what does this mean?

This means everyone is finally out of lockdown!

The moment the lockdown was lifted, the TES team decided that they had to go out today, no matter what. They desperately needed to breathe fresh air and release the pent-up energy they had been cooped up in the club for so long.

The club understood and simply waved them through.

A few hours later...

Just as White Crescent had changed her clothes and was about to go out for a game of ball and some exercise, she opened the door and saw the players who had been clamoring to go out and let loose a few hours earlier, sprawled on the sofa in the club's living room.

White crescent moon: ? ? ?

"Didn't you say you were going out to let loose? Why are you back already?" White Crescent couldn't accept what she was seeing.

In fact, Roland and the others did indeed rush out.

Then they were dismayed to find that there were no interesting exhibitions or large-scale entertainment facilities open outside, and even the bubble tea shops and board game shops were packed with people.

That's fine. It doesn't matter if the entertainment facilities aren't good. Surely we can all go out and have a good meal, right?

result. . .

Teahouses were occupied by elderly people early in the morning, and the queues at many famous restaurants started at two hours. Not to mention the time-honored shops and trendy spots on the street, their supplies were sold out early in the morning. After going around in circles, the only place that had seats available for them was the Shaxian Hotel, which they had almost gotten tired of eating at during the natural disaster.

What could we do? So all we could do was go to the supermarket to replenish our "stockpiles" of food and tissues, and then come back to the club to AFK.

"There's no way around it, we went out too late, and forget about the coach playing basketball, the basketball court is full of square dancers."

???

"No, why should they be doing square dancing on the basketball court? Aren't you going to say anything about that?"
