Believe me, I really am a professional League of Legends player.

Chapter 48 Entertainment anchors have all arrived.

Quick Star's expression was very serious at the moment, but he was secretly overjoyed.

He chose the double-carry lineup. Zet's best champion is Ashe. If he picks Ashe and pairs her with Twisted Fate in the mid lane, and they can end the game quickly in the early game, then it just means GT is trash. There's nothing we can do about it.

That's right. Ever since he found out that Abu wanted to kick him out, he started trying to make EDG lose, lose a few more games... It's unlikely that they won't make it to the playoffs, but it would be worth it if EDG couldn't even hold onto second place in the group.

Now that we've lost another game, we can move on to the second step of the plan. The junior player is still very strong. If we let him continue playing, he might be able to come back from a 0-1 deficit to win 2-1.

Let's seize this opportunity and lose to GT first.

This is the weakest team in Group B, so there are many more points they can exploit next.

Quickstar took a deep breath and said to Abu, "I think we need to make some changes. Something's not quite right right now."

Abu looked at Quickstar with a gloomy face after hearing the translator's words.

What changes do you want to make?

"Let's make a change... The junior is fine, but he doesn't have any outstanding plays either. In the current situation, his performance is just mediocre."

"Change players?" Abu couldn't help but look at Li Fan, who was sitting in the corner.

The only substitute mid-laner is Li Fan, but putting Li Fan on the field seems unreliable no matter how you look at it. He hasn't played in scrims for so long, wouldn't it be like throwing the game to the enemy?

What Ke Kuaixing said is actually not wrong.

It seems the junior player's current form is beyond saving EDG.

Without any highlights, it's essentially just muddling through.

Moreover, as a coach, QuickStar is definitely better at analyzing players than I am.

To put it bluntly, I know my own skill level; I'm only at the Bronze or Silver rank.

Then, before esports developed, he infiltrated the WE team as a coach and brought Clearlove with him to EDG, which is how he got this job.

Quick Star then continued on his own, "Li Fan might give us a big surprise... just like his performance in the training match back then. Can you imagine him playing that well?"

Abu nodded, confirming that he hadn't thought about it.

That's right. What if changing players because of this stops the downward trend?
There was a problem with the braised pork belly, so we replaced it with a mouse.

Ai Luoli didn't play well, so the factory manager took a break and came back.

The top laner and jungler have both been changed, and the only one who hasn't been changed is the mid laner.

Li Fan listened to the discussion between Kuaisu Xing and Abu and was somewhat speechless.

Are you kidding me? I'm actually going to play in the next game? What were you thinking?

Is this something a normal coach would dare to do?

The last practice match was more than half a month ago, and the same goes for ranked games.

The junior student, who had already looked very unhappy after losing the game, turned even more pale after hearing what Quick Star said.

To be fair, most of the games were lost because of other lanes; he only lost one or two games because he was targeted in the mid lane.

To be fair, he did everything that Twisted Fate could do in that game, and to lose under those circumstances, he really can't blame himself.

He can only control one card at most, and when team fights, the enemy's damage is focused on him. What can he do?
As a result, how can I possibly accept being relegated to the bench?

But when he saw Kuai Suxing staring at him with such a fierce look, he swallowed his words back.

He has only been playing in the LPL for a year at most.

The seniority system in China is still deeply ingrained in my mind.

Amidst this discussion, it was decided that Li Fan would replace Scout on the court.

...At this moment, both the live stream rooms and the major League of Legends forums were thrown into chaos.

It's a celebration for EDG's haters and a source of anxiety for their opponents. It seems like EDG is even losing to GT now...

The second-to-last team in the league, that's just unbelievable.

It's worth noting that EDG became a top team because it has the most LPL league championships, plus a Mid-Season Invitational championship.

It's unbelievable that we've fallen to this state.

Similarly, many fans whose status is second only to EDG are starting to have their own ideas.

They started fueling the fire in the forum.

It's fair to say that the entire LPL is in complete chaos, and the league seems to be facing a real reshuffle.

While the commentators, including Wawa, Miller, and Rita, were still chatting, they received a notification from the director that EDG was replacing Li Fan with Li Fan...

When they heard the news, the three of them stared at each other in disbelief.

After all, he's the only one in the entire professional league who's trending on social media every day right now.

You're a natural FPS genius, why are you playing MOBA games? Isn't that a waste of your talent?

Especially in CS:GO, the domestic leagues need these prodigies to save the day.

Although that's what the child was thinking, she definitely couldn't say it out loud.

"Dear viewers, we have just received news that EDG has made a substitution in the second game, bringing in their substitute mid laner Unreal. You can look forward to Unreal's performance in his first professional league match."

As soon as the doll said those words, the live stream chat exploded!

The main reason is that they felt the decision was simply too outrageous.

The junior's performance is worthy of being Faker's substitute, at least much better than this guy who never trains and doesn't do anything productive.

If the original lineup had continued playing, there would still have been a great chance to win today's game. But changing the lineup now means they really don't want to win. It's hard to imagine what kind of situation would lead to such a decision.
【? ? ? ? ? ? 】

[EDG should just say they don't want to win. A direct loss would save them the game and waste everyone's time.]

[They actually went on to be entertainment streamers? I was just joking when I said I'd have Unreal Engine play in a match, why did you guys take it seriously?]

[Has Abu gotten his brain caught in a door? They dare to replace him?]

Scout didn't carry this game, but he didn't make any mistakes either. This substitution is just him taking the blame.

[As far as I remember, Unreal has never played a single game of League of Legends. How can he be playing in a professional match?]

[Haha, EDG is starting to play pranks! I'm turning from a fan to a hater!]

[So, you're just a natural-born FPS master trying to get yourself killed in a MOBA?]

[Fast forward to Unreal Engine getting wrecked]

[This coach is definitely problematic. First, his draft picks were questionable, then he substituted in some players. Is he trying to fix the game?]

The ten-minute break passed quickly.

The staff came to the lounge again and knocked on the door of the EDG lounge.

Li Fan followed the rest of the group out of the player tunnel and sat down in the mid-lane position... looking around.

There were quite a lot of spectators at the game!

But I wasn't actually ready to play, so how did I end up sitting in the battle seat for no reason?
