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

Chapter 34: I got tower-dived right at the start, how am I supposed to play like this?

To everyone's astonishment, EDG completed the hero change.

When everyone saw that EDG's top laner was Sion and Ashe was the support, they were all completely stunned.

The audience erupted in cheers.

"Huh? What's going on?" Remember's voice was full of astonishment: "EDG actually picked Sion for the top lane? And then Ashe for support? My goodness! This draft is way too over the top."

"But you can only say that this is EDG as expected! In the last Bo5, Attack's Kalista and Fiora were dominating, but in this game they've gone back to playing tanky champions?" Wang Duoduo couldn't help but tease.

"It's the same style and the same feel we're familiar with. Kalista and Fiora shattered my perception of EDG's top laner, but this Sion pick has pieced that shattered perception back together."

"That's just how EDG is!" A sigh flashed across Tong Xikuonai's face: "Even though Attack performs so well, he can only play tank roles in EDG."

The viewers in the live stream were also engaged in lively discussions!

"666666!"

"With this lineup, if we can't push through in 20 minutes, it's game over!"

"This is hilarious! Attack carried so well in the last Bo5. And they actually picked Sion for them? This kind of team should just die!"

"There's no stage in the LPL to cultivate top laners!"

"Domestic center position? It must give way to our Korean duo of centers."

……

Regardless of how others view EDG's Sion pick.

No one in WE will underestimate them in the slightest.

Sion is not a mainstream top laner in the current version, so EDG's decision to pick him at this time must be due to prior preparation.

Otherwise, even if you choose a utility champion for the top lane, there's absolutely no need to pick Sion.

WE's coach and EDG's coach Nofe went on stage to shake hands.

Redmi and Nofe are both Korean coaches who knew each other before, but they didn't communicate much.

At this moment, Redmi took a serious look at Nofe for the first time. No wonder he was the coach who led the Tigers last year.

Putting aside the rest, at least they really dared to make the choice.

Skateboard top lane, Ashe support...

Even if these champions were picked in ranked games, their teammates might still kill them instantly.

Nofe smiled back at Hongmi, and seeing the slightly surprised look in Hongmi's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little smug.

After both sides selected their lineups, they entered Summoner's Rift.

(Blue side WE) vs (Red side EDG):

Top Lane: [Desert Butcher] vs. [Undead Warrior]

Jungle: [Elise Queen] vs. [Demacian Prince]

Mid Lane: Taliyah vs. LeBlanc

ADC: [Mouth of the Abyss] vs [Arrow of Retribution]

Support: [Heart of Freljord] vs. [Ashe]

Amid cheers from the audience, both sides emerged from the spring together.

"Both teams have very strong lineups for level 1 team fights, one side has Braum and the other has Sion! Should we engage in a level 1 team fight?"

I remember asking with some curiosity, "If these lineups really fought, which side do you think would win?"

"I think the right side still has a certain advantage. Apart from the prince being useless, the other members of the first-tier team are very strong in combat."

Wang Duoduo pondered and said, "On the other hand, WE's Elise, Renekton, and Taliyah aren't strong in level 1 team fights."

“That’s right. They have crowd control, but they can’t afford to use it for a level 1 team fight! Otherwise, they won’t be able to lane.” Tong Xikuo nodded his head.

As the three commentators spoke, the entire EDG team crouched in the bushes behind the red team's blue buff.

In order to scout the movements of EDG's jungler, WE's mid laner Taliyah placed a trinket ward at EDG's F6 camp.

The others defended against EDG's level 1 invasion in the lower jungle.

Only after the troops were dispatched did the crocodile turn and head to the top lane.

Shortly after the crocodile headed to the top lane, LeBlanc and Taliyah appeared together in the mid lane.

The WE team breathed a sigh of relief. They had already sent out their troops, but EDG hadn't arrived yet, which meant there was no plan for a level 1 team fight.

Unbeknownst to WE, as the minion wave pushed down from the high ground, EDG's top, jungle, bottom, and support players grouped up and entered WE's jungle from the F6 camp.

WE's bot lane duo is Kog'Maw and Braum.

Kog'Maw is a late-game ADC, similar to Braum and Thresh.

Is he a tank support? He's not good at initiating team fights.

Is he a support hero? He doesn't have much sustain.

Therefore, WE's bot lane duo is prepared to help Spider start with the red buff, and then just let the lane farm.

As soon as they started attacking the red buff, Sion took the lead, followed by Jarvan IV and Ashe Varus, charging straight into the jungle.

The key point is that EDG didn't come from F6, but rather from behind the Red Buff.

WE didn't realize it at first.

By the time they saw Sion, Ashe's W ability, Volley of Arrows, was already flying towards their faces.

The Spider was not slowed in front of the Red Buff, but Kog'Maw and Braum were both slowed.

After Ashe slowed down Braum and Kog'Maw, the WE bot lane duo turned to run away, but Varus followed up with his E skill, Rain of Arrows, to continue slowing them down.

Then the two marksmen chased after them and kept attacking with basic attacks.

Sion initiated with his Q skill, successfully knocking up Braum, who was moving slower.

The two marksmen relentlessly attacked Braum, using W+E+Q and auto-attacks to take away nearly half of his health.

Left with no other choice, Braum could only learn W at level one and jump to Kog'Maw's side.

Braum was already crippled, and Kog'Maw, at level one, had little fighting power, so they had no choice but to retreat.

Seeing this, the spider could only flee. If it had been even a little slower, it would have been forced to use its teleportation ability.

"EDG forcibly swapped jungle camps with Spider. Is this to ensure the dominance of their bot lane duo?"

I remember saying with some surprise, "But we've already deployed troops, so the front line will be at a disadvantage, won't it?"

"To be honest, although WE lost their jungle, it's not entirely unacceptable. When they picked Braum as support in this game, they should have already prepared to focus on the top, mid, and jungle."

Wang Duoduo nodded slightly: "Sion hasn't recalled yet, but is still using his Q skill to help Jarvan IV clear the F6 camp? Is he planning to use Teleport back to lane later?"

"Sion's corpse can still farm minions after he dies, and he can also use his ultimate after reaching level 6. I feel that these two points are the reasons why EDG picked him," Tongxi commented.

The comments section erupted in chaos.

"Marin would only be a dog if he went to EDG."

"The Throne of 4396!"

"EDG might as well just have four players carry a bot in the match."

"How frustrated must Attack be? Am I weaker than him? Why should I be sacrificed like this?"

"7777777!"

The WE team is also communicating internally.

"Sion should be back by now, you guys be careful in the bot lane." Condi pinged to the top lane: "You guys farm a small wave in the top lane and push slowly. If he uses Teleport, just push the cannon minion into the tower and dive him!"

"What if he doesn't pay the TP?" 957 frowned.

He actually wanted to push it over quickly.

If Sion doesn't use his Teleport, he'll lose units.

Once he submits his TP (Teleportation Point), he can get things done even with an extra TP.

"Not using Teleport? You tower dive and come with me to the Krugs to stop him, you won't even get any creeps!" Condi sneered, "Since you like being a dog, then I'll make you a dog for good!"

“OK!” 957 nodded immediately.

However, Sion did not recall as WE had expected.

After helping the Prince clear the F6 camp, he surprisingly returned to the Krugs camp and used his Q skill to help the Prince fight the Krugs.

Then...

Sion stood behind WE's bottom lane turret, gazing at Kog'Maw and Braum, who were currently imprisoned under the turret.

WE's bot lane duo, upon seeing Sion, didn't even return to the top lane; they were still in the bot lane. Their cerebellum must have shrunk.

A thought couldn't help but pop into my head.

Finished!

We're going to be overtaken!
