You promised a top lane tutorial, but you're just using Worlds as material for your videos?

Chapter 345 After all, it's 3-0, I really can't do it!

The past two years, S5 and S6 seasons.

This was undoubtedly the darkest season for the LPL.

And this year, in the S7 season.

First, LGD won the MSI Mid-Season Invitational, which greatly boosted the confidence of the entire LPL region.

Now, in the Intercontinental Cup, where regions compete as a whole, the LPL region has defeated the LCK region head-on.

"Congratulations LGD, cough cough, congratulations LPL!"

Miller almost couldn't catch his breath because he dragged out the phrase "We are the champions" for so long.

"LGD fully utilized the strengths of their lineup, starting with the two-pronged attack on top lane with the excavator, and never gave KT any chance. They accomplished their mission!"

"We not only defeated LCK in the finals of the Asian Games, but we did it with a score of 3-0!"

"Three to zero! Miller, did you expect that before the game? I certainly didn't."

After a pause, Wawa continued, "Several years ago, many people often used the phrase 'After all, three to zero, I could do that too!'"

"Now, I want to tell you."

"It's 3-0 after all, I really can't handle it if I go on!"

Ten years ago, at the S3 World Championship.

At that time, Royal Club was the first team from the LPL region to reach the finals of the World Championship.

Ultimately, they lost to the powerful SKT team with a score of 0 to 3 in the S3 finals!

They lost to the suddenly emerging genius mid laner Faker!

After that final match, many people used the phrase "After all, it was 3-0, I could do it too" to mock Uzi, Royal Club, and the LPL.

Miller finally caught his breath.

"Three to zero," Miller said with a smile and shook his head.

"All the audience members, all the audience members in the live audience, the audience members sending bullet comments, and the audience members online!"

Tell us loudly!

"Who, and which region, is the champion of this Asian Games?"

As Miller finished speaking, all the spectators watching the game at the second venue in Shanghai shouted "LPL" in unison.

In the official LPL live stream room, the screen was already filled with a dense barrage of comments.

All the comments were exactly the same: "LPL is the champion!"

The competition venue at the Takabong Exhibition Hall in Taiwan Province.

When Camille kicked and destroyed KT's Nexus.

The LGD players all took off their headphones and stood up from their seats.

Even though they won the MSI Mid-Season Invitational just two months ago.

But I was still very excited at that moment.

The intercontinental competition format, which involves representing the entire region and cooperating with teams from your own region to fight together, offers a completely different experience and sense of accomplishment.

Zhou Dian and his teammates gathered around the players' bench, celebrating happily.

At this moment, staff members came up and gestured for them to quickly go over and shake hands with the KT players after the match.

PYL quickly turned around and walked in front, with the other four LGD players following in turn.

On the way, Zhou Dian glanced down at the audience and found that most of the Taiwanese audience members had already left.

The post-match handshake is usually just a formality, a display of so-called sportsmanship.

However, during the handshake, Imp really showed Mata and Deft their true colors.

After all, Mata has always looked down on Imp, believing that Deft is stronger than Imp.

Now, the bot lane duo of Mata and Deft has been defeated head-on by Imp.

If Imp can resist showing his disrespect to Mata, then he's truly a god!

Mata was furious after Imp taunted her so closely.

But now that he's defeated, he has no way to refute it and can only take Imp's taunts head-on.

"You're so cocky, just wait and see how we crush you at Worlds!" Mata finally couldn't hold back and retaliated.

"See you at Worlds then! Don't fail to even get into Worlds!"

Imp had a smug look on his face, which made Mata so angry that she wanted to punch him twice.

After shaking hands with KT, the LGD members went to the center of the stage.

At this moment, LGD's head coach Dgc also came up from backstage, running all the way, looking very excited.

Dgc gave Zhou Dian, who was walking at the very back, a big hug. Then, all six members of LGD, including the players and the head coach, bowed to the audience.

Since the LPL team has already won the finals, the award ceremony for the Intercontinental Cup champion will be held later.

Therefore, after LGD won the third game of the finals, there was no longer a post-match interview session that usually took place between games.

After bowing, Zhou Dian and several teammates returned to the players' bench to pack up their peripherals.

Go back to the backstage lounge to put your things away first, and then all the LPL players will return to the main stage for the awards ceremony.

Upon entering the lounge, everyone inside applauded the LGD players.

Zhou Dian stepped forward and bumped fists with 957. During the Intercontinental Tournament, besides his own team members, 957 was the person he knew best.

"Wow! Your Camille was truly a masterpiece," 957 said with a smile.

"No, no, your Prince's plate is the real deal!"

The two exchanged compliments.

"Hey you two, stop being modest, you're both awesome!" Letme chimed in from the side.

"Watching these two games made my hands itch to play Camille, but before I could even make a move, LCK fell!"

"Hey, 3-0, 3-0, that's so satisfying! Now those Korean LCK players are going to have to swim back home!"

Letme's words made everyone laugh, creating a cheerful atmosphere.

We won the game, everything is fine, everyone's happy.

After a few casual words, the event organizers came over to inform the four LPL teams to prepare to go to the main stage for the awards ceremony.

"Alright, let's give another round of applause to the LPL region for defeating the LCK region in the finals and winning our first-ever 2017 Asian Games championship! Let's give LPL a round of applause!"

Although the host was trying his best to create a lively atmosphere, the applause was still sparse.

"Next, we will proceed with our awards ceremony!"

"We've invited our award presenters here. First up are our two award presenters this year, both of whom are senior executives from Riot Games Southeast Asia."

"Now, please welcome our guest to present this 'Asia's Strongest' trophy to our L~P~L~"

The players from the four LPL teams participating in this Asian Games lined up on the main stage.

When they went on stage, LGD and WE stood in the middle. When it came to receiving the trophies, everyone made a last-minute decision to let Zhou Dian, who was standing right behind the two award presenters, be the representative to receive the award.

Zhou Dian was initially hesitant, but Eimy pushed him forward.

The camera focused on the center of the stage, where Zhou Dian received the trophy from the award presenter, raised it high with both hands, and held the Intercontinental Championship trophy above his head.

"Come on, everyone in the audience, let's give another round of applause to congratulate our Asian champions—L~P~L~"

Few people responded from the sidelines.

Looking down from the main stage, Zhou Dian saw that more than half of the audience had already left, and the rest were gradually leaving as well.

After all, they're not our own audience!

Watching this scene, Zhou Dian's thoughts drifted, and he couldn't help but think of the S7 World Championship three months later.

If an LPL team can lift the Summoner's Cup, the symbol of the highest honor in League of Legends, at home in the Bird's Nest, the venue for the S7 World Championship finals.

Imagine the uproar and the fervor that would ignite at that moment!
Do I have the chance to stand in the center of the Bird's Nest and be the one to lift the Summoner's Cup?

At this moment, the host's shrill voice brought Zhou Dian back to reality.

The award presenters have already left the stage.

The next segment will be a group interview, where each LPL team will be interviewed.

The hosts for this intercontinental tournament stood in the middle of each team, and the interviewees were chosen based on proximity.

The camera panned across the room, and the first team interviewed was EDG.

When Ren Dong handed the microphone to Meiko's mouth on his right, Meiko was eating something.

Meiko, however, remained calm, with something in her mouth, and answered Ren Dong's question.

During the answer, her left cheek was stretched out, and her speech became slightly slurred.

The viewers in the live stream were thoroughly entertained.

Then Ren Dong turned around and interviewed Xiao Hu, who was standing to his left.

The interviewer for WE was Xiaoxiong, a female host from LMS, while Yu Shuang stood next to the LGD members.

When WE's jungler Condi was being interviewed, Dgc, who was originally standing next to Yu Shuang, tried to pull Zhou Dian over to be interviewed after winning the championship.

He felt that Zhou Dian was the number one contributor to LGD's success in this Intercontinental Cup, so it was better to give Zhou Dian the opportunity to shine.

"Coach, come here. I know you have a lot to say. I've already done two post-match interviews in the past few days, and I've said everything I need to say. I have nothing more to say."

Zhou Dian patted Dgc on the left shoulder and nodded at Dgc.

But actually, Zhou Dian didn't really want to be interviewed by Yu Shuang.

Because Yu Shuang, during interviews, always tries to "make a big splash".

It's pointless, I can't be bothered to argue with her anymore!

Yu Shuang, who was standing next to her, breathed a sigh of relief.

From the LPL league to this Rift Rivals, Yu Shuang has interviewed Zhou Dian several times.

I can never quite keep up with Zhou Dian's train of thought, which leaves him a bit confused.

Seeing that Dgc wanted to switch places with Zhou Dian and have Zhou Dian give the interview.

She was genuinely afraid that Zhou Dian might say something strange or offensive again, which could lead to him deliberately stirring up trouble after the match and causing her to be criticized as well.

She's actually a little afraid of interviewing Zhou Dian now.

"I'd like to ask Coach Dgc, after winning the match today, is there anything you'd like to say?"

"First of all, I want to thank my teammates. They fought their way to this continental championship match by match."

And then what?

After the group interview session, the first Asian Games officially came to a close!
The camera from the second live broadcast in Shanghai switched from the Taiwan Exhibition Center to the LPL official commentary booth.

"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work! All the players, coaches, and staff from our LPL teams, thank you for your hard work!"

The baby's voice still carried a hint of barely suppressed excitement.

"Now that the issues at the front have been resolved, let's start dealing with our own problems."

"Huh? Is there something wrong with us?"

The two have collaborated for many years, with Miller habitually taking on the role of the straight man.

"Of course we have things to do ourselves. All the audience members can pick up one of our themed T-shirts at the exit later."

"Haha, the director just told me that!"

The audience cheered again.

Who doesn't love free stuff?

"Thank you all for being here with us to witness this moment. Although we weren't at the TWC World Championship venue, it's still very meaningful that we witnessed this moment in Shanghai, at the LPL regular season venue!"

"After today's battle, our LPL region has received more attention from everyone." Miller's voice was already hoarse.

"Of course, we must also guard against arrogance and impatience, because this BO5 is composed of every BO1, which is somewhat different from the traditional BO5. We still need to do our best to prepare for the S7 World Championship."

At this moment, the doll suddenly interrupted Miller: "Let me tell you the truth, when did we start thinking so highly of ourselves?"

"It started from the MSI Mid-Season Invitational in S5, when EDG defeated SKT in the finals!"

"Then, the higher you climb, the harder you fall. I still don't want to recall the S5 and S6 World Championships!"

"After suffering a terrible fall, we rethink our approach. Now, we're not afraid to fall!"

"We have always been learning and improving with a humble attitude."

"Moreover, we are fearless now. Look at the confidence that the four teams we just interviewed showed."

"I think the painful experiences of the past two years were worth it!"

"No, no, no!" Miller shook his head repeatedly. "The way you're saying it makes it sound like defeating SKT in the MSI finals was the beginning of a dark age!"

"Let me tell you, LGD just beat SKT in this year's MSI finals!"

"Hey, isn't this because after LGD beat SKT to win the MSI championship this year, our LPL immediately won the Rift Rivals championship!" Wawa chuckled.

"This is completely different from what it was two years ago!"

"I believe that the dark ages of our LPL on the international stage are completely over!"
