Mingkai, if you're this cowardly, you should just go home and raise pigs.

Following Zhou Hanyang is TheShy, but TheShy used Korean.

"I've been practicing with Attack a lot lately, and I've learned a lot from him. I'm really grateful to Attack. I'll do my best this time to make sure he has a great time."

TheShy's words pushed the atmosphere of this best-of-five series to its peak.

"666666666!"

"Guan Zeyuan isn't joking? IG has really been scrimming with EDG recently?"

"Isn't this a bit insane? Is JackeyLove really that amazing?"

"To be honest, I don't quite understand why Attack is praising TheShy so much. What's so great about a rookie top laner?"

"Isn't Attack also a rookie top laner?"

"That's understandable. Do you think you know more about professional gaming than Attack?"

"So, if JackeyLove can play next year... won't the LPL be about to reach its peak?"

"Principal Wang's got some skills, actually managed to draw a card for him?"

……

"Hahaha... It's clear that both teams are very confident of winning this best-of-five series." Guan Zeyuan laughed, "Especially Attack and TheShy..."

To be honest, ever since Attack debuted, he's had a very high opinion of TheShy, even though, as far as I know, the two don't actually have much of a personal relationship. Is this what they call mutual respect between strong individuals?

"Okay! The BP screen appears on the big screen." Wang Duoduo changed the subject: "Although Attack and TheShy are evenly matched, I still want to remind everyone."

IG's starting top and jungle duo today isn't Ning and TheShy, but rather veterans Duke and KidKid!

"IG must be preparing a special tactical system to deal with EDG!" GuGu said with some surprise.

wow...

Suddenly, a commotion erupted at the scene.

The chat rooms on various official live streams were flooded with comments.

"Pfft... Hahahahahahahaha! I'm dying of laughter."

"I had such high expectations, but when Duke and KidKid came on, I just couldn't hold back anymore, everyone."

"6666666666! IG really knows how to play."

"EDG was originally prepared for a fierce battle, but they found that the other side had a group of old, weak and disabled players."

"You look down on Duke that much?"

"Duke is alright, but what is KidKid?"

"I really can't hold it in anymore, my family!"

"The show was really entertaining!"

……

In the previous match between EDG and IG, Duke and Kid were the starters.

Zhou Hanyang originally thought things would change in this life, but he didn't expect IG to still be so dominant.

Because EDG had more points in the regular season, IG fought their way up from the bottom.

Therefore, EDG had the priority to choose sides, and knowing that IG did not field TheShy and Ning, they took the initiative to choose the blue side.

They had already discussed that if IG fielded TheShy and Ning in the first game, EDG would choose the red side.

After several days of scrims, IG's top, mid, and jungle players have greatly improved their combat capabilities, and EDG does not want TheShy to take the counter pick on the red side.

This will cause a certain degree of decline in Zhou Hanyang's strategic position.

EDG immediately banned Maokai, Shen, and Cassiopeia.

Maokai and Shen are heroes that Zhou Hanyang doesn't particularly like to use, while Cassiopeia is a mid-lane champion that Rookie is more skilled at.

IG banned Taliyah, Thresh, and Galio.

There's not much to say about Taliyah and Thresh; their signature moves deserve respect.

Galio is not someone EDG wants to give up, otherwise once EDG gets going, they will be completely out of control.

Currently, the meta is strong, and there's also Kalista, but because EDG has Iboy on their side, they haven't used Zet.

Iboy's skateboard shoes weren't as strong as Zet's, so IG let them through when they didn't have enough bans.

EDG picked Gragas right from the start!

Among the current tanky junglers, Gragas has the highest priority.

IG, on the red side, had two positions available, so they proactively picked the Xayah and Rakan duo for their bot lane duo.

With Xayah and Rakan as their first picks, EDG decisively locked in Leona and Varus on the second and third floors.

Varus vs. Xayah is a classic laning matchup.

Just like the female police officer facing off against Ashe.

Xayah is a mid-to-late game AD carry, while Varus is an early-to-mid game AD carry, specifically designed to counter Xayah.

In fact, Varus can also play in the late game after acquiring the Lethal Tempo rune.

However, Varus has a problem: he has neither the ability to move nor the ability to increase the range of his basic attack.

This results in Varus having no less damage output than other AD carries in the late game, but he simply doesn't have a good environment to deal damage.

Therefore, Varus is only an early to mid-game ADC.

Little Cannon, Female Police Officer, Rat, and later Kai'Sa, Zephyr...

These AD carries must possess one of the following: long range, mobility, or explosive damage output.

Some ADs even possess two of these characteristics.

Even at his peak, Aphelios's teamfight damage output was terrifying.

Where is Verus?

Verus has none of them.

That's why Varus is considered an AD carry in the early to mid-game, lacking both damage output and survivability in team fights.

By the time Varus's hand was broken from auto-attacking, and he finally managed to kill one person, all his teammates were already dead.

Or they'll be shot and killed instantly.

Therefore, Varus must establish a significant advantage in his lane against Xayah in the early game.

After all, Xayah is too strong in mid-game team fights, with AOE, crowd control, and even an ultimate to save her life.

IG picked Corki on the third floor, which is considered a late-game hero.

Both sides began the second round of banning.

IG banned Kassadin and Lucian first.

Currently, LCK players are using Lucian to counter Corki in the mid lane, which is considered a counter matchup.

Kassadin was chosen because EDG's bot lane picked Varus, and they needed a late-game champion in the mid lane to provide backup.

EDG banned Zac and Sejuani.

Varus is already a carry without any mobility, and junglers like Zac and Sejuani who initiate team fights severely limit carries without mobility.

If IG gets it, their mid-lane heroes will be severely restricted.

IG, on the fourth floor of the red team, picked Jarvan IV, a champion that can be played flexibly in the top and jungle.

Furthermore, the Prince's ultimate synergizes very well with the Corki's ultimate; if the Prince's ultimate controls the Corki, the team fight can be won easily by using the W skill.

IG's draft pick was actually quite good.

To everyone's surprise, EDG pulled out a Yasuo and a Vladimir on the fourth and fifth floors.

With these two heroes out, IG was completely stunned.

Because... in IG, these two heroes can be used in the mid and top lanes.

Yasuo and Vladimir are both Zhou Hanyang's signature heroes.

Scout isn't that strong, but Vladimir only needs to farm, while Yasuo has Gragas' help.

There's absolutely no pressure in positioning the aircraft!
