Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 385 A Massive Devastation of JD.com! Spring Finals Championship Winner

"Hey, JD Gaming's biggest problem right now is a huge lack of vision. Green Hair has no chance to roam to other lanes at all, and the bot lane is being completely pressured."

"Scout's Crystal Maiden was able to get behind the two of them because Kanavi wasn't in the bottom half of the map and had no vision. That's really frustrating!" Miller opened his mouth, wanting to say something insightful, but unfortunately, JDG's current situation was too bad.

They were so bad that they didn't even notice when the Ice Maiden slipped behind them until she entered the defenses' line of sight.

"Edg is clearly better than JD Gaming in terms of vision control and tempo changes. While JD Gaming's playstyle seems strong against other teams, their disadvantages are too obvious when they face Edg."

The Ice Maiden was stuck in the middle of the minion wave, and Green Hair and Loken didn't know what to do for a moment.

"I think that among the domestic teams right now, no one can rival Edg in the Spring Split. Edg's current goal is truly..."

"Looking at the world!" the doll shouted excitedly, seemingly trying to set the tone.

However, neither the audience at the scene nor the viewers in the live stream felt there was any problem whatsoever.

Facts always speak louder than words!

When the Ice Maiden's Frozen Tomb froze the two, when the Miss Fortune's ultimate began its frenzied barrage, when the Graves's cannon roared and secured a double kill!

The situation is already 70% stable in this round!
How can JD.com turn the tide?
Can you turn the tables with words?

The passersby who had been invited by JD.com to act as fans at the scene also fell silent and became completely still.

They had heard about the incident that had happened online before, where several people from JD.com spoke recklessly, arbitrarily exploited long-standing customers, and shamelessly shifted the blame.

The fact that they are about to be defeated 3-0 and have no chance to fight back is the best lesson for everyone at JD.com!

As the commentators said, Edg's bot lane play completely deprived JD Gaming of the initiative and mid-game fighting power.

In the next ten minutes, JD.com faced a difficult situation. They would give up resources whenever possible, and wherever Li Luo controlled the position of the male gunner, the JD.com team would retreat.

JD.com didn't even glance at the two small dragons; they were all given to Edg!

With the help of the defensive towers, they begin the arduous task of protecting Athena!
Twenty minutes into the game, after securing the third dragon, Edg aggressively forced a team fight at Baron Nashor. JD Gaming wanted to see if they could turn the tide with Baron Nashor, but Scout's Lissandra skillfully initiated the team fight and took down Loken.

With one less ADC, JD Gaming's damage output was simply insufficient, leaving them with no choice but to concede the Baron.

With the help of the Baron buff, Edg began to push towers. By the time the buff ended, they had taken down all of JDG's first and second towers, leaving only three high ground towers to put up a last-ditch effort.

Through this operation and development, the economic gap between the two sides has reached 9200 yuan. It looks like another wave will bring the economic gap to 10,000 yuan. In this decisive game, the outcome is almost a foregone conclusion.

"Colonel Ki has already given his prediction of the two teams' win rates. Haha, this is disrespecting JD Gaming! Edg has a 94% win rate right now, compared to JD Gaming's 6%, it's really a 91/10 chance," Wawa said cheerfully.

The commentator's mood also changes as the game progresses, from the tension at the beginning of the third game to the relaxation now.

The three of them already knew the outcome, and naturally, their initial enthusiasm dissipated considerably.

In previous years, the Spring Finals were never this entertaining. I never expected that JD Gaming would be the loser in both S9 and S10, getting beaten 3-0 each time.

This is very interesting.

"The economy is about to turn 10,000 yuan worse. If JD.com continues like this, we might soon have to say that phrase that everyone loves to hear." As Miller finished speaking, cheers and applause erupted from the fans.

At this moment, many people have already stood up, waving their team flags or light boards.

The director was quite clever, deliberately focusing the camera on several pretty young women in the front row, which drew cheers from the audience.

In the third game of the Spring Finals, Edg completely dominated them, turning it into a stomp.

Even in the live stream, the comments from viewers were remarkably consistent.

"A top player from a top-tier team has achieved such a despicable result, amazing!"

"Before the match, JD.com gave the order, and 100,000 loyal soldiers marched out of the desolate mountains to support us. After the match, JD.com made a classic 3-0 exit, with the 100,000 loyal soldiers contributing to our performance targets."

"Enough said. JD Gaming is a team that has made history, the team that fed kills to the enemy team in two consecutive Spring Finals. I suggest they repeat this classic performance next year."

"Edg is going to win the championship again! 666!"

The consequences of JD Gaming's pre-match competition in buying powder and starch have finally come to fruition.

A team with no fan base and extremely poor public image will naturally be criticized by everyone in this situation.

Even a passerby would spit on it if they saw it.

"Wow, it feels like the Edg fans at the scene have already started celebrating in advance. This is a big signal that Edg is returning to the competition!" Seeing this, Teacher Ji also breathed a long sigh of relief.

"However, JDG has now defended against Edg's attack with the Baron buff. Although all the outer towers have been destroyed, the high ground towers are still standing. With Azir's wave clear ability, Edg won't be able to push onto the high ground for a while," Miller said rationally.

"This might be JDG's last hope. However, in this version, it's not enough to just defend the Baron Nashor to win. There's less than a minute left before the fourth dragon spawns. If they get the Fire Dragon Soul, with Edg's current lineup, their damage output will be unbelievable."

in the game.

JD Gaming's tenacious defense prevented Edg from successfully pushing onto the high ground, which is also the reason why Azir's pick rate has suddenly increased this season.

Its powerful wave-clearing ability means that even minions with the Baron buff can't withstand more than a few hits.

With Purify, ultimate, and Zhonya's Hourglass, Edg's current lineup has very little chance to engage on a sneaky champion like Azir, except for Crystal Maiden initiating the team fight.

However, despite this, JDG's disadvantage is still widening!

The first thing to notice is that in less than 25 minutes, Graves is already almost fully equipped!

In comparison, the troll only has a pitiful two and a half items at this point. In team fights, let alone dealing damage, it's questionable whether he can even withstand damage.

With all the outer defensive towers destroyed and no vision in the jungle, JDG's defensive perimeter collapsed drastically.

Besides Loken's vision illuminating the jungle, Zoom, on the top lane, had to switch his scanner to vision to prevent Edg's ambushes when he went back to base.

As for the resources on the map, forget about the blue and red buffs; JD.com can't even calculate the duration of those two buffs yet.

Like a snowball rolling downhill, in this final round, JD.com can only desperately hold on and hope for a miracle.

However.
The title of "invincible in civil war" wasn't given lightly.

The fact that this title can be used speaks volumes about the team members' personalities.

JD Gaming simply couldn't find a player with the composure to turn the tide. Loken wasn't up to it, and Yagao was even less capable. Zoom wanted to, but he played Renekton, and with the team already on their fourth dragon, a skilled player like Sivir would be more useful. Faced with this situation, JD Gaming acted decisively, allocating all their resources to Yagao's Azir, hoping he could unleash his terrifying damage in the upcoming team fight.

When Edg effortlessly secured their fourth dragon and completed their Infernal Dragon Soul, the director was stunned when he switched the camera to show a completely different scene.

"Why is JD Gaming playing the same crazy tactics that RNG used to use? Toothpaste's Azir is now dominating all three lanes by himself, and even Loken's Aphelios is giving up all his resources to Azir. It seems like JD Gaming is going all out!"

"You've got some skills. The person who's supposed to be eating three dishes by himself is sitting right across from you. There's a saying..."

"Showing off your skills in front of Guan Yu?" the child asked curiously, immediately eliciting laughter from the audience.

"No way! This means I'm using your own tactics against you, or in short, you're attacking yourself!"

Hearing the teacher's serious teasing, Miller and Wawa covered their mouths and chuckled.

It's not just that JD Gaming has a bad public image; even among the commentators, not many people actually like this team.

Naturally, he couldn't hold back his jokes at this point, not afraid at all of JD.com's fans stirring up trouble.

"JD.com is indeed in dire straits right now. Their Azir is their strongest asset. If they can pull off a perfect team fight and take down the second dragon with Azir's damage output, they still have a chance to turn the tide and continue their operations!" JD.com's struggle on the field also made JD.com fans feel what it means to be overwhelmed by adversity!
Unless in dire straits, would JD.com allocate all its resources to one person in such a tactical and unstrategic manner?

Edg is currently on a roll, taking all the resources from outside, leaving only three lanes of minions. JD Gaming simply doesn't have enough resources to take and distribute, so they can only pile all the resources on one person.

In the eyes of the five men, the Tsar was more than capable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility.

"This approach is effective. We can see that Toothpaste is almost at four items now. If he has another two or three minutes to develop, Toothpaste's Azir can build his magic penetration and change the situation. Unfortunately, Baron Nashor has already spawned. JDG has to defend against this wave, otherwise they will definitely not be able to hold on after Baron Nashor is taken!"

"Yes, the second Baron is the key to deciding the outcome of the game. Once it's taken, Edg's players will be at their peak in terms of equipment and condition. With the Baron buff, the minions will push in from all three lanes. Azir can't split his attention, so they're bound to lose their high ground and might even lose the game." Miller nodded, agreeing with Remember's statement.

With the three dragon buffs simultaneously applied to the minions, JD Gaming wouldn't have time to react before they could push down the high ground.

Thirty seconds.

Twenty seconds.

As the time drew closer to the Baron Nashor spawn point, JD Gaming began purchasing control wards and even bought a LeBlanc for 500 yuan, preparing for a desperate, all-or-nothing battle.

The five people split into two groups.

Along the top lane are Zoom's Renekton, Greenmao's Thresh, and Loken's Aphelios.

Along the bottom lane are Toothpaste's Azir and Kanavi's Troll.

Loken walked to the range of the scouting beam, waited a moment, and then used his vision to target the five Edg players who were already waiting in front of the Baron pit.

"We see it! We see it! JD.com has spotted it! It looks like they're not going to let this go. The two sides are about to fight!" With the battle about to begin, the three commentators also perked up and watched intently.

The next second, the moment the vision was cleared, Graves left the Dragon Pit with his cat and resolutely headed towards the middle lane of JD.com.

"Hey? What's the factory manager up to here? Is he camping out people? It's the Tsar and the Troll coming over here, this might not be a good idea."

"JD.com still has one more foresight to reveal, which is Zoom's foresight. With 8 seconds left on the Baron Nashor, if Clearlove can't find anyone to ambush in those 8 seconds, this wave will be spotted."

"Just take a normal look, you guys are too nervous."

The three commentators each held their own opinions, starting to create an atmosphere.

The audience didn't think a fight was going to break out either. After all, in everyone's mind, at this time, it's the right way to play is to fight it out in a team fight around the Baron Nashor, and whoever wins will take the game. Going it alone is not the way LPL plays.

However, the next second!
"My god, the factory manager here is too decisive. He blocked the mid lane minion wave with extreme vision, bypassing the vision that JD Gaming had placed behind the blue buff wall. Neither Azir nor Trundle noticed this. Is Graves going to make a move?"

"Fight or not?"

That vision control was so clever; there was a small shadow between the walls that perfectly concealed the Graves' figure.

As the time for the dragon's respawn drew closer, the JD team began to deploy their troops.

Zoom abandoned his foresight just one second after Baron Nashor spawned.

"Be careful, Graves isn't here. They only have three people at the Baron pit this time."

Green Hair saw it clearly with his newfound vision, broke out in a cold sweat, as if Graves was right next to him, and immediately shouted.

However, Green Hair's shout was destined to be a step too late.

The next second, in the five-person avatar frame on JD.com, one avatar was already clicked down, and a 51-second respawn timer appeared.

"The Tsar is dead! My God! What kind of damage was that, Clearlove? Is a crit-build Graves really that terrifying?"

"Kanavi could only run away in a panic. JD.com's big C was evaporated by the factory manager in less than a second. This is too outrageous!"

When the director switched back to the replay, everyone was even more astonished.

With a fully equipped Graves and Yuumi's assistance, his physical attack power is off the charts. A simple AQA combo is enough to instantly kill Azir.

Two consecutive critical hits felt like divine retribution, wiping out the Tsar's health bar.

The audience, who had expected a fierce battle, were stunned.

Even JD.com, which still wanted to put up a stubborn resistance, had no choice but to give up this major battle.

"You've got carried away! Well then, without the Tsar, all we can say for JD.com is, 'Try harder next time!'"

"Once Edg secures this Baron Nashor, they can advance unimpeded without encountering any further resistance."

"JD.com lost!"

In the game, the suspense of the match became meaningless with the death of Azir and the lament of Baron Nashor. As Edg's five players attacked the high ground, JDG's four players were powerless to fight back.

The game time was frozen at 29 minutes.

Edg destroyed JDG's base crystal in one fell swoop.

They won the 2020 LPL Spring Split championship.

This is also EDG's first league championship since their two-year hiatus in S8 and S9!
