Chapter 25 Who plays a game without wearing a helmet?

"Brothers! Just two more games to go!"

Inside LGD's rest room, Dream Bro seemed to have a new dream.

However, unlike his optimism, Mai Zijian remained silent, understanding that the next two matches were the most crucial.

In today's match, Di Wu faced off against Maple. Maple could sense that when Di Wu couldn't get the heroes he was good at, his playstyle was actually similar to that of OMG last year.

The key is the synergy between the mid and jungle. Peanut's skill level is undeniable, guaranteeing a certain floor. Beating LNG shouldn't be a problem. However, in the next match, they will face the FPX mid and jungle duo that crushed IG last year.

Doinb plus FMVP—Tian!

The chemistry between this mid-jungle duo was terrifying in the Spring Split. Currently, BigB is only slightly behind Knight in the MVP rankings for the mid-lane position, making him one of the top mid-lane players in the LPL.

Moreover, FPX is most famous for their synergy between their mid, jungle, and support players. The mid and jungle players are like intimate lovers, able to know what the other is thinking with just a glance.

FPX has brought in the super top laner Khan this year, making them arguably the most formidable opponent blocking LGD's path to the playoffs.

LGD's consecutive victories have given LGD fans, who had almost given up, a glimmer of hope.

The ID Gnik has gradually come into the public eye.

On this week's weekend cafeteria night, as one of the cafeteria's three usual picks, Cat Emperor and Guan Zeyuan also noticed LGD's two consecutive victories against SN and LNG this week.

The title of this section is also...
"When the water ghost is no longer a water ghost!"

"LGD has been performing quite well this week, especially after Gnik came on, they've won three consecutive small games!" Guan Zeyuan praised Di Wu's performance without reservation.

Now, playoff qualification might depend on the outcome of a single game.

Every match is crucial for LGD.

Cat Emperor shook his head: "Take a look at the third game between LGD and SN, this one with Jayce. I think Angle never expected Gnik to have Jayce as a pick!"

"Oh? You mean LGD stole this round, right?" Guan Daxiao's keen sense of potential pitfalls allowed him to see right through Cat Emperor's hidden meaning.

"You said it! I didn't say it!" The Cat King pouted, dismissing the threat cleanly!

???

Okay, okay! So it's what I said?
The comments section immediately erupted in discussion.

"Who is J Yuanze Guan? He's from Weibo."

"To be honest, it really was stolen, right? Look at Galio playing against LNG, he's already started cheating."

"However, LGD's mid-jungle synergy is truly amazing, their chemical reaction is on point!"

"Their true colors will be revealed in the next two matches!"

The big screen displayed footage of the LGD vs. LNG match.

"If Jayce was just a steal, then I feel like Galio had his own interpretation of the game!" Remember felt a little gratified.

The LPL region is really producing a lot of young talent these days.

LGD has also pulled some pretty good SSRs, so it seems like the so-called battle of the Four Emperors is still going to be interesting.

"All I can say is that this Galio reminds Peanut of Faker!"

"Huh? Does that remind you of Faker? Does that mean Galio will be a fixed ban for LGD from now on, to prevent LGD from triggering the Peanut synergy with SKT?"

"Does the cat mean it stole it again?" Ji Zhi looked at Cat King with a slight smile.

Why does it seem like Gnik finding a job is a big motivation for him?

Doesn't Cat King have a job now? Even if it's just commentating on stage!
"I didn't say that! You did!" The Cat King smiled indifferently, completely absolving himself of any involvement.

"Moreover, whether LGD can make it to the playoffs depends on the last two games! Gnik came too late, what a pity!"

Di Wu's appearance made LGD fans feel both sad and happy.

The sad thing is that he is indeed a promising mid-laner, but he came too late. It's like a baby starving to death, and then the milk comes.

The director displayed LGD's next opponent on the big screen.

"Furthermore, FPX and JDG are currently vying for second place in the Spring Split. Whoever defeats LGD will take second place and avoid playing one less best-of-five series!"

IG, currently ranked first, has been incredibly consistent on the list, but the second and third place teams have the same number of wins, so it all comes down to their game score.

So even though this is the last game for both strong teams, they need this victory to improve their regular season rankings, and they won't hold back or relax.

The cafeteria session soon came to an end, and the commentators began predicting the results of next week's matches. Colonel Guan's lips curled slightly upward as he patted his chest.

"I'm making a bold prediction!"

"FPX beat LGD 2-0, then LGD triggered the 'water ghost' buff and beat JDG 2-1, dragging them all down with them!"

His prediction wasn't without basis. LGD is such a magical team; once they're confirmed to be out of playoff contention, they become a harbinger of disaster, dragging others down with them.

The analysis was indeed quite good, but it just so happened to come from Guan Zeyuan's mouth.

FPX fans in the live chat have already started spamming question marks.

"Guan Zeyuan! Shut up!!"

"But I feel the skill gap between FPX and LGD is too big, so I guess I can't jinx them?"

"Let's analyze it. Actually, LGD relies on their mid and jungle players, but FPX's mid and jungle players are top-tier! How can they possibly beat FPX?"

"The gap between the top laners on both sides is huge. It can only be said that whichever of LGD's two top laners is going to suffer!"

Amidst great anticipation, both DGL fans and FPX fans...

Hangzhou Esports Center!

The match between LGD and FPX has begun!

The official organizers also scheduled this BO3 match for 7 PM, a prime time slot.

Both sides arrived at the battle arena beforehand to test their equipment.

As Di Wu passed by the FPX stage, he waved to the group of champions and said, "Good luck in the match!"

As a social butterfly, Teacher B naturally nodded to Di Wu first, saying, "You guys need to work harder!"

FPX is only fighting for second place, which is important but not as important as LGD needing to win this match to have a chance in the playoffs.

Oh?
"Want to make a bet?" Di Wu asked Big B.

"What are we betting on?" Big B was naturally not intimidated.

"The outcome of this game, one Rocket, then being matched up against an MVP, that's another Rocket!"

"Oh! By the way, you also stream on Douyu, right?" Big B suddenly remembered.

Di Wu was quite popular in the LOL section a few days ago, seemingly ranking alongside JKL and Faker. There were even quite a few clips online of Faker praising Di Wu's gameplay while playing Yuumi.

"Young man, don't be so arrogant!" Big B's lips curled up slightly. What kind of lineup does LGD have? Do they really want to compete with FPX for the victory in this game?
"Are you still called a young man if you are not angry?"

Di Wu stared back at Big B, not losing ground at all.

"OK! I accept!" Doinb certainly wouldn't let go of such a high-profile matchup.

Then I can make up stories in my own live stream and create content that viewers will enjoy.

【Ding! 】

Facing the formidable FPX and Doinb's bet, defeat him and take the first step towards establishing yourself in the LPL! Let everyone know the ID Gnik!

After securing two MVP awards in this match, he thoroughly humiliated Doinb, the loser, on camera!

[Reward: 200 Comedy Points, 4 Hero Proficiency Points]

Di Wu became interested upon hearing about the reward for the mission.

This is the most generous reward the comedy system has ever given, which also means it's the most difficult task.

But I'm sure I'll win!

【Ding! 】

[With the match against FPX imminent, and considering that you, host, are highly likely to win, White Monkey will definitely hold a trial for Xiaotian. Please prepare a helmet for Xiaotian in advance!]

[Reward: 100 Comedy Points, 2 Hero Proficiency Points]

hiss!
helmet?

That's true, who plays a game without a helmet?
But the competition is about to start, where am I supposed to get a helmet?
