Chapter 66: River Sword Demon? TheShy, watch out, this tongue will be very cool!
"Really, Brother Hao?" When he heard that his salary would increase, Lu Yiming was so excited that his ears perked up.
Although he has some savings now, his wallet is still the thinnest in the team. Even though Mark is not worth a lot, he has accumulated much more wealth than himself after all these years in the LPL.
"Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back!" Guo Hao nodded heavily and said, "If you can maintain your current state, slightly correct your lazy professional attitude, and work hard, I believe that with your potential, it will not be difficult to win the Xia crown!"
At present, the team has reached the playoffs in an invincible style, and in the first game, Lu Yiming unexpectedly defeated TheShy, and it was a big victory.
The three of them had changed from being skeptical at the beginning of the season when Lu Yiming confidently looked forward to winning the summer championship, to now firmly believing that TES is the undisputed champion this season!
Looking at the excited young man in front of him, White Crescent couldn't help but think of the phone call Guo Hao received during the competition.
The JDG manager generously expressed that they were willing to use 369 to exchange for Tzun, but was rejected by Guo Hao.
Even when they were about to hang up the phone, the other party's tone of trying to keep them was full of persistence. As old hands in the industry, these senior practitioners certainly understood that JDG even wanted to increase the money.
JDG's attitude made the three people feel unbelievable, and Guo Hao was even more fortunate for his sharp vision.
All the way up to now, the three of them have witnessed Lu Yiming's undefeated legend with their own eyes. No one knows better than them about the terrifying talent of their own baby and the potential that remains in him.
What the outside world sees is Tzun, who only plays 4 hours of training games every day and then goes off work.
If he had a "correct professional attitude", how fast would he grow? And how high would he eventually reach? Even the three club managers themselves dared not imagine!
White Crescent Moon wanted to point this out, but when she heard Guo Hao using salary increase to induce Lu Yiming to correct his professional attitude, she held back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
This is what they want to see most.
"Manager, you are right. I also think that Xia Guan is not difficult for us." Lu Yiming's expression of approval made the three of them laugh with relief. However, when they heard the second half, their smiles froze on their faces. "But, since it is not difficult, why do we have to live so hard?"
"As the saying goes, if you love to suffer when you are young, you will have endless suffering when you are old. If you don't suffer when you are young and live a Buddhist life until you are old, then I will never suffer in my life!"
After hearing his theory, even his four teammates were stunned.
What kind of rebellious attitude is this?
Guo Hao clenched his fists, intending to persuade the young man to take the "right path", but he couldn't find any fault with his tricky words.
Even the white crescent moon and the warhorse have a sense of 'making so much sense'.
"Perhaps the thinking of us old folks is out of touch with the times. I think what Yiming said makes sense." White Crescent Moon suddenly said.
Zhan Ma agreed, "Yeah, I read a book that said geniuses have different brain circuits than normal people, and they are often unique."
Guo Hao looked at his two partners, his eyes seemed to be blazing with anger. He thought for a long time, and thinking that the second game was about to start, he could only say angrily: "Just spoil him!"
…………
WBG.
"Tzun is awesome. His laning and operation with Gragas are really amazing. I play an unconventional top lane and can't beat him." TheShy recovered from the depression of losing the last game. Facing questions from his coaching staff, he expressed his opinions in halting Chinese with endless praise.
Lord Hou rolled his eyes: "I saw it, we all saw it in the background. Now the whole LPL knows that he is very good, but as a champion top laner who represents the ultimate offensiveness of the LPL, can't you have a little more competitiveness?"
TheShy was lectured so much that he scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled shyly.
"I mean, do you have the confidence to hold the fort in the second game?" The Marquis said anxiously, "I've reviewed the game. His strategy for resisting pressure with the barrel is actually to catch the opponent by surprise. We didn't have a database before, but now we have experience, so it's actually very easy to solve."
"The main thing is that your level 1 ward position should not be disturbed by him. You are forced to place it on the grass on the opposite side. If you place the ward in the river, he will be helpless."
"In the next game, we are on the blue side, and the opponent doesn't have that many bans, so do you dare to pick Lucian in the top lane?"
EasyHoon debuted as Faker's substitute mid laner and later served as the dean of VG. As a former top player in LPL, his understanding of the game is definitely far ahead.
He doesn't quite believe in Skateboard Shoes, mainly because the top laner Skateboard Shoes usually don't choose W, which is equivalent to being born with one less skill, and the tolerance rate is shockingly low. If the enemy's top laner can withstand pressure to level 6, it is equivalent to lagging behind by one ultimate move in damage.
Because Lucian has an E, he has the ability to protect himself. The most important thing is that he can frequently use the insidious Q to disgust the opponent during the laning phase. TheShy is extremely proficient in this aspect. The level 6 ultimate skill, Holy Lance Baptism, can greatly increase the kill line. Even the mythical equipment can adapt to the powerful version of "Force of the Wind", and the overall performance is much stronger than the Spear of Vengeance.
The reason why I chose Spear of Vengeance in the last game was because Top Esports on the blue team had already snatched Lucian away on the first floor.
Now that he has a plan to deal with the situation, he is confident that giving TheShy the long-range single position can achieve ideal results.
"No, coach. The red team's jungler can go to the upper half of the map alone to gank. It's unstoppable." TheShy shook his head. He no longer wanted to play this unconventional hero.
If there is a difference in skills between the two sides, it is easy to make the opponent overwhelmed and dizzy by using this kind of thing, but after the whole game, TheShy has realized that Tzun is an opponent who is equally matched with himself, and the top lanes of both sides are of the same level. If he uses an unconventional top lane again, the result will not be much different from the first game.
"I'll choose Aatrox. We can't lose the second game. If we fall behind 0:2, there's no chance of coming back from - down." TheShy volunteered.
"Sword Demon?"
This is TheShy's famous hero, but since winning the S8 championship, TheShy has been obsessed with marksman top lane, and then became obsessed with the strong top lane in the version. In fact, he no longer devotes his energy to the Sword Demon, but sometimes the meaning of a favorite hero to a player cannot be reflected by proficiency.
"Well, that's fine."
On the other side of the room, Mai Zijian was already training his capable men.
"What were you doing in the last game? The mid laner is a skill gap. I won't talk about the inability to make a move in the early game. What were you doing, SoFm? You didn't do a single effective gank until level 6. When it came to the crucial game, you started to focus on jungle farming, and even became obsessed with it. Why don't you just gank the lane!"
"There's Skateboard's ultimate in the top lane, but you don't try to find Gragas! There's Ahri in the middle lane, but you don't want to merge with her! There's Nami's EQ combo skill in the bottom lane after she reaches level 6, but you don't use it either."
SoFm was scolded by the coach until he was sweating profusely. He gritted his teeth and shouted: "Coach, I have to farm this hero in the early stage. The opponent's top lane doesn't give me any flaws, and the damage of the mid lane attack is too high. I can't play if I don't farm."
"Are you brushing yourself?" Mai Zijian felt his blood pressure soaring when he heard this. He felt that this kid had a mental problem and he had to scold him to wake him up.
"You have a problem with your thinking. A big problem. Go gank the lane for me in the next game. Go gank the top lane! Join forces with the top laner! Don't tell me you're afraid of Tzun. He just debuted this year. You're a jungler who finished second in S10. What big scenes haven't you seen? If you're really that afraid of Tzun, I suggest you kneel down in his direction when you get on stage. The sooner we die, the sooner we'll be reborn!"
Hearing this, SoFm blushed.
"I'll catch him! I'll catch him until he doubts his life!!"
Mai Zijian said sharply, "Down the road!"
"Ah?" Huanfeng shuddered.
He knew that he had big problems in the previous game. In the area of maintaining KDA, which he was best at, he was killed by a Gragas in two key team fights even though he had flash. This was really not right.
"Use your usual survival experience and life-saving skills. I have no other requirements from you. Just stay calm, don't do anything, and don't make any mistakes!"
"In the second game, I have only one request. If the Aatrox comes, then join the team. If the Aatrox doesn't come, then wait for him. In a word, the top lane is the boss, so wait for the boss to take shape!"
Huanfeng breathed a sigh of relief. In the field of doing nothing, he dared to claim to be the best in LPL and no one dared to say he was second.
Hou Ye and Mai Zijian had a clear division of labor. One organized the thoughts for the top laner, and the other adjusted the mentality for the other four players. When it was time to go on stage, Mai Zijian was still shouting at the top of his voice: "Everyone, get excited. We must win this one. Think about your future, your fans, and your salary!"
"rush!!!"
………………
"Hello, welcome back. This is the second round of the 2022 LPL Summer Playoffs. The two sides are now tied at 1:0, with Top Esports temporarily leading. Next, WBG, who lost the last game, will switch sides to the blue side, which has a more advantageous BP, to fight."
Guan Zeyuan's passionate voice echoed throughout the venue.
Remember to look forward:
"Yes, Tzun's Gragas played very well in the last game. I believe that he will have a more favorable BP space in this game. WBG should focus on the top lane and increase their BP resources."
"And from the Weibo posts here, the players' mentality is pretty good. They all look pretty positive, especially TheShy. As a senior who was challenged by a new player, he was still smiling after losing the first game."
"That's something we welcome. Let's take a look at the second BP match between the two sides." Rita directed the topic to the BP content.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, the first round of bans for both sides were quickly decided.
WBG: Gragas, Poppy, Alchemist.
TES: Jhin, Ice Witch, Clockwork.
【The third class is on the road. 】
[As expected, this guy is really scared of being abused by Tzun. ]
[It seems that Tzun only has Old Driver, Big Worm, and Ornn to choose from, right? 】
[This is a game that can be played by a veteran who wants to die.] [I want to see the big worm in the 20th floor feast, the big worm in the regular season, flashing into the dragon pit and biting the big dragon to death. I am still impressed by it.]
[1 broken in 3 second, even gods would have to kneel! ]
【…】
Topsports fans were so excited that they were ordering food on the barrage.
In the first game, WBG did not get the first kill until the very last moment, and the final kill ratio reached an exaggerated 17:0.
Everyone knows that the Weibo team only has the top laner who can carry. It has been proven that Tzun can keep an eye on TheShy, and the other four teammates are developing normally. In team battles, WBG's coordination is terrible. As long as TheShy doesn't explode, they even think that today will be 3:0.
However, when the blue team revealed the hero, Aatrox, everyone was surprised.
【Please help from the gods. 】
【TheShy prayed to the gods, and the one who responded was S8 himself! 】
[Like to play tank? This time, I won’t play top lane like usual, I will just use my favorite hero. 】
【Yes. 】
【Brother Sun is about to start chopping. 】
The WBG fans who had been silent for a while were all excited at that moment.
For those great super players in history, the appeal of the favorite hero is quite terrifying. Not only do the players themselves believe in it, but the fans are even more superstitious than the players.
“Aatrox.” Guan Zeyuan sighed, “The opponent has drawn his sword, and there is no Alchemist who wants to die. In fact, Tzun’s hero pool is not good at dealing with Aatrox.”
"Yeah." Jide also agreed: "No matter the old driver, the big worm, or the goat, they are actually too clumsy in front of the Sword Demon. The Sword Demon's E has a skill that sucks life, and the passive has the sword of death. It is easy to increase endurance by exchanging blood."
When TheShy's main character Aatrox was brought out, everyone felt that Tzun would have a hard time dealing with it.
"Let's take Moon Man Lulu first." Lu Yiming disagreed and helped A Shui raise the priority of the bottom lane.
The reason they didn't ban AD this time was because Lu Yiming was certain that the opponent would choose EZ to start a fight. After all, HuanFeng was frequently arrested by him in the previous team fight, and coupled with the strong laning combination, he was double-killed by A Shui and Mark in the bottom lane. Given the cleverness of Hou Ye and Mai Zijian, they probably realized that HuanFeng was not up to the task.
If you want the bottom lane to avoid making mistakes, only EZ with full survivability can provide this foundation.
Giving EZ to the opponent will actually benefit them.
After all, after learning from his mistakes, Huanfeng will most likely be outside the screen of his teammates during team fights. He is naturally lacking an ADC, and in team fights he can at most throw his ultimate from a long distance to get a little damage. He doesn't even know how to lose.
"I guess this game can last a little longer, brother, come and play C." A Shui felt that he had wasted a good game in the last game because of the length of the game. This time, his good brothers once again gave him BP resources. With the powerful combination of Yue Nan and Lulu in team battles, there was naturally no reason for him not to play C.
The blue team's choices on the 2nd and 3rd floors were completely within Lu Yiming's expectations.
They locked onto Ezreal and the Desert Emperor respectively.
The priority of the double C is increased. This is also a very classic double C system. In the mid-term, EZ relies on the super strong Poke damage of the three items + Mana Cut to drag until the three-piece set of the Tsar is smoothly formed. After that, the Poke Tsar will become a demon-like existence in team battles. "AQA" or "QAA" can take away half of the ADC's life...
When they reached the 3rd floor of the red team, everyone was paying attention to Lu Yiming's choice.
The hero has been banned three times, and the choice space is so narrow. There is no reason not to take out the top hero in the first round of BP. Otherwise, he will be banned twice more and can basically "retire on the spot."
The audience, including the commentators, all thought so.
But Lu Yiming just didn't play according to common sense. He didn't want Zuo Shou to lose control of the line, so he let Zuo Shou get his unique fox first.
【He is still sacrificing. 】
[Is BP such a team? ]
[If I get banned two more times, won't there only be one hero left to choose? ]
[Will White Bean Sprouts be banned or not? Tzun was such a C in the last game, and you let him get banned five times? ]
Topsports fans immediately thought that the white bean sprouts were causing trouble.
In the second round of BP, WBG decisively banned the big worm with online recovery effect, and then the old driver was also taken away. Top Esports blocked the fan mother and monkey one after another.
Moonman is very afraid of being rushed in the face, so the powerful Monkey King in this version must not be given to SoFm. As for Madara, she is the best support for EZ. Facing Moonman and Lulu's bottom lane, she can even push the line and suppress them unscrupulously. With good laning skills, taking two layers of tower skin is no problem.
"In this case, the only choice left for Tzun is the goat." Guan Zeyuan said with emotion: "He really gave too much for this family!"
Red side, 4th floor, lock on 'Wei'.
SoFm didn’t work in the last game, so Xiaotian plans to try this popular LCK Lock Monster in this game. Because without the powerful Monkey King, any choice in the jungle will do.
The blue team on the 4th and 5th floors locked onto Spider and Luo respectively.
"Spider, you are sure that Tzun is going to choose Goat, and plan to cooperate with Aatrox in military training." Guan Zeyuan was shocked, "Spider, go up at speed 3, use the silk of E to fly up to avoid the damage of the defense tower, and full health is the kill line. Moreover, Goat will definitely be pushed when fighting Aatrox, which is difficult to deal with now."
"Vi is not strong at level 3, she is no match for Spider, she can't protect Goat." Jiede also thought this was too tricky, "If there was a veteran on the 3rd floor, SoFm wouldn't have the courage to pick Spider against the meta. After all, the veteran has zombies, and if you kill the veteran by crossing the tower, you might get killed. At the very least, you can kill most of the soldiers in front of the tower, so it's not a loss anyway."
The commentator sighed.
On the 5th floor of Top Esports, a hero suddenly appeared that no one expected.
'The world is a river, and I am its king'——
A ferocious and terrifying voice, along with the sound effect of the hero being locked, rang in the ears of all viewers.
"Locked... locked?" Guan Zeyuan's eyes widened, and he shouted in disbelief: "Top Esports' 5th floor actually chose the player with the lowest appearance rate in the current version... Oh no, it's Tam!"
"The director has given the data. The last time the top laner Tam was selected was 784 days ago." Remember excitedly shouted: "Tzun, he has a new trick up his sleeve. Is this how fast a genius grows?"
"What's the odds for Tam vs. Aatrox?" Rita's eyes lit up and she asked the two seniors excitedly.
Both of them were stunned, thinking about the possibilities.
[There are also experts! ! ]
[He is still hiding. I told you that he is willing to take five ban positions. How can he not have some new things? ]
[This guy is using TheShy to test his sword! ]
[I have been honing my tongue for two months, and I only have one BO5 with my tongue. TheShy, watch out, this tongue licking will be very cool! ]
【abstract!】
[What is Tao Za Dog called? How does Tam fight Aatrox? Will TheShy's Aatrox beat the shit out of him? ]
【…】
Amid the surprised voices of netizens.
As the coaches of both teams walked to the center of the stage, shook hands and left the stage, the game jumped to the loading interface.
[BO5]: 0:1
【WBG】vs【TES】
Top lane: [Darkborn Blade] vs [River Lord]
Jungle: [Spider Queen] vs [Piltover Enforcer]
Mid: [Desert Emperor] vs [Nine-Tailed Fox]
ADC: [Explorer] vs [Crescendo of the Moon]
Support: [Huan Ling] vs [Fairy Witch]
