I just messed around, how could I become the number one in the world?

Chapter 381 Uzi returns and EDG wins third place in the regular season!

A few days after the EDG incident became a hot topic, the summer season officially began.

As the first summer season with changed rune versions, countless viewers are looking forward to it.

All regular season games are BO1.

The competition schedule is also relatively fast. On the first day, there will be EDG's game.

It's a match against RNG!!
"Congratulations to WE for getting off to a great start!"

In the commentary booth, it was Jiede who said, "Next up is what the audience is looking forward to the most, the first regular season match between EDG and RNG. Both teams are strong!!"

"What is disappointing to everyone is that Cat God and Stain were unable to play in the first game."

"This time, EDG's top laner is played by substitute ray, the mid laner is played by scout, and the bottom lane is also played by substitute iboy."

In the regular season, both Gu Chen and Wuzhi were originally planning to play directly, especially Gu Chen. His hand injury was actually healed relatively quickly and was not as serious as Uzi's.

However, Abu still let the two of them rest and they didn't have to play.

Of course, the main thing is to allow the newcomers to hone their skills.

At this time in the EDG lounge.

Although Gu Chen was resting, he still came to the competition venue.

"Don't be nervous, just fight hard!!"

Gu Chen came to Scout and cheered him up.

Although Scout is not a newcomer, he has not played because Gu Chen was the starter previously.

This was also his first time playing in more than two months.

And the opponent is a relatively famous team, RNG!

"Xiao Chen! It would be great if you could play today. You could just use Fiora to stun 957. Then we could easily win the game. Hahaha!"

The factory manager also walked over, put his arm around Gu Chen's shoulder, and said jokingly.

In the previous training match, he had witnessed Gu Cheng’s strength with his own eyes.

That was even more brutal than when Gu Chen played mid lane.

Gu Chen chuckled and said, "How can it be so exaggerated? 957 is a top laner after all!"

The factory manager rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't know which bastard was the one who beat 957 to 0/10 in the training match, which made him depressed for a week!"

"It shouldn't be me!"

Gu Chen waved his hand innocently, then pushed him and said, "Hurry up and get on the court, and get a good start!!"

The factory manager nodded and walked onto the stage with confidence.

……

The five EDG players went on the court with great enthusiasm!
RNG also took the field, and the ten players from both teams began their first match of the summer season.

BP is proceeding effectively.

With the final lineup determined, both sides entered the game.

In the first game, both sides seemed very cautious and serious. They had no plans to invade at level 1 and just stood in positions to provide vision.

Scout's playing style was still very stable, and when he fought against Xiaohu, he was basically not suppressed at all.

Among the two players in the bottom lane, iboy is a talented young man. After these days of training games, his cooperation with Meiko is getting better and better.

He was slightly suppressed by Ruler in previous training matches, but now in this summer season, he played very well.

The details are well done, and the online consumption is even better than that of the ruler.

And hit the road!
After all, Ray has gone through a season of training in the spring season, and he has the ability. It's just that after joining EDG, the hero pool he practiced was only functional.

So in this first game, considering the team, I chose Mundo and went straight to the tank.

Although Letme from RNG was the last choice, he picked Ornn.

Ever since he was abused that day, he has been trembling with fear in every training match against EDG.

But gradually he discovered that as long as Ray used a meat tank, he would be very weak, but when he used a warrior and other piercing mages, he would be very strong.

He wondered if Ray did this on purpose just to confuse him on the court.

Therefore he is also very stable.

In the first six minutes of the game, both EDG and RNG were very stable and no kills occurred.

Until the wave after level 6, Mlxg cooperated with Xiaohu to directly four-on-two gank the bottom lane. iboy in the bottom lane was still too inexperienced. On the way to escape, he made a positioning error and was caught.

Meiko was also doomed, and RNG got a double kill immediately.

After this wave, RNG's pace began to speed up.

Ray in the top lane was caught by Mlxg, and then there was a fight between Zzali and Xiaohu in the jungle, who came to support him first.

The game was only twelve minutes in and the head-to-head ratio was already 4:0! !
RNG rhythm takes off!!
"Wow! Xiaohu and Mlxg are indeed experienced players. They have set the pace in these few waves!!"

Jide on the commentary booth praised: "EDG is in a tough spot right now! Both the bottom and top lanes are at a huge disadvantage. The scout in the middle lane can't stand up and can't find the rhythm!"

"If EDG continues like this, they will probably lose this game!!"

I remember that as soon as I finished saying this, a wave of dragons began.

On the RNG side, Xiaohu showed his strength again and cooperated with Mlxg to start a team battle. In a four-on-four situation, RNG directly completed a 0-for-3 exchange! !
At this point, all the fans who still wanted to see EDG get off to a winning start were all excited! !

[Oh my god! What the hell is EDG doing? Scout is useless, not even 1% of Cat God's strength. Look at the AI ​​mid laner Xiaohu, the rhythm is taking off! ! ]

[EDG has no rhythm at all! It seems like the jungler of Zz1tai and the mid laner of Scout can't cooperate with each other, neither of them can move together to set the rhythm! ! ]

[Alas, it’s over! It’s over! Without Maoshen and Wuzhe, EDG has become so bad! ]

Countless netizens are disappointed with EDG in this game.

With RNG's pace, how can EDG win if none of their members have any kills? ?

After RNG won the dragon team battle, the pace became faster! !

Although EDG's Clearlove cooperated with top laner Ray to capture Letme's Ornn and got their first kill, what's the use of capturing a meat tank?

Mid laner Xiaohu and bottom lane ruler have taken off!!

Afterwards, RNG launched another five-on-two attack. Although EDG arrived in time, they still gave away two kills and lost the next tower.

In the 23-minute team fight for the big dragon, RNG even achieved a 0 for 4 situation!
EDG completely collapsed!!
RNG's rhythm is unstoppable!
29 minutes into the game, EDG had lost both high grounds and their economy had reached 8500.

Remember shook his head and sighed: "It's over!! EDG has no chance of a comeback. The next wave of RNG will come with super soldiers. The C position in the middle and lower positions has excellent equipment and the output is already maxed out!!"

"EDG's iboy's AD is not yet formed, so he can't join the team fight at all!"

"Although Ray picked a Mundo to defend the enemy, he has no one on his team to deal damage. No matter how strong he is, he is just a tank!"

Amidst everyone's disappointment, EDG successfully lost the game!!

In the first game between EDG and RNG, EDG lost!

[I’m convinced! I’m convinced! What is this game? Is my factory manager the only one playing it? Are the others just AFK?]

[Without Cat God and Stain, they shouldn't be so bad, right? Could it be that RNG is too strong? ]

[In the next match against IG, I hope EDG won’t let us down again! ]

[Hahaha, did you see that? Only the Royal Family has YYDs! The era of EDG has passed, now is the era of our Royal Family!!]

【Xiaohu is awesome! Xiangguo is awesome!!】

Many people cursed. But there are also many people who think that they were playing against a strong team, RNG was too strong, and EDG only had substitutes, so it was normal that they couldn't beat RNG's starting lineup.

So everyone is looking forward to EDG's next match against IG.

pity……

After the match between EDG and IG, some viewers originally had expectations, but after watching the game, they were directly disappointed.

The battle with RNG at least reached the late stage and lasted for more than thirty minutes.

This is called a defeat after a fierce battle.

But when playing against IG, the game was over in just twenty minutes!
Ray in the top lane was beaten to 0/7! !
At this point, even rational audiences couldn't sit still!

The game is over and EDG’s official Weibo account has been taken down.

Various rebukes continued to pour in.

[What the hell! EDG club should disband quickly after being beaten like this by IG! ! ]

[Since Cat God has been selected, why not let him play? 】

[What's the point of playing? Maoshen is only good in the middle lane. Didn't you see how strong TheShy is in IG? Maoshen's presence will only save us from dying twice!!]

As the game progresses.

EDG was constantly being scolded, and IG also attracted a lot of fans and viewers for a while.

Especially TheShy in the top lane!

They have never seen such a strong top laner in the LPL, and their playing style is so entertaining.

……

In the following two weeks of games, EDG still did not let Uzi and Maoshen play.

Both Ray and iboy came on as substitutes.

Without these two players, EDG didn't know if it was under a curse or something, but it lost more than it won, and the team's ranking kept falling.

Not even as good as some second-rate teams!
This time, all the fans couldn't sit still!
[I am speechless. What kind of performance did EDG have in this summer season? They only beat VG? They couldn't even beat Team Snake! ]

[This state is really not good, just find a class to join, and still want to compete for the third consecutive championship, speechless! ! ]

[Now we can only rely on playing against weaker teams to maintain our ranking, but if this continues, I don’t think we will even get a spot in the World Championship, right? ]

[Is EDG going to disband? With this record, those fans still boasted that they were the best team in the world, but this is the end? ]

[Didn’t Cat God turn up? Why didn’t he go on stage? 】

[Go to the west heaven and pray to the cat god! Ask him to return quickly and save EDG! ]

Countless EDG fans are extremely disappointed with the games in recent days.

The strength shown is not what a strong team should have.

If the situation continues like this, let alone winning three consecutive championships, it will be difficult to even get a ticket to the World Championship!

As for EDG's performance, LCK will naturally pay close attention to it.

When the LCK audience learned that EDG was in very bad shape this season, they burst into laughter.

[Hahaha, I am dying of laughter. EDG's substitution is really funny! They let Maoshen go to the top lane, but he didn't play. Now, although Scout is quite strong, it is difficult for him to carry the team! ! ]

[However, EDG still has Uzi and Maoshen to play. I wonder what EDG's strength will be like after they come on the court! ]

[Is his strength just like that? EDG is now missing a big carry, and the mid laner is no longer a threat. Can he turn the situation around with just one ADC? You're dreaming! This isn't the Censer meta, can he beat five with just one AD? ]

[That's right, that's right, what is the mainstream now? It's in the top, mid and jungle. The old mid and jungle lead the pace in the front, and the mid-term relies on the top lane to contain the team. Although Maoshen has switched to the top lane, he is only a newcomer in the top lane after all. He can't be as strong as the mid laner in the top lane! ! ]

LCK is very happy!!

After all, every time in the world championship, it was EDG that blocked their path to victory.

And now, EDG's condition is really too bad.

Now it is a question whether EDG can enter the World Championship.

……

EDG's record is very poor.

The coaching staff couldn't sit still anymore.

Taking the points issue into consideration, Gu Chen and Uzi were finally allowed to play in the subsequent games.

Although Uzi has been treating his hand injury during this period, his strength has not weakened. During the start of the summer season, he has regained his form.

In the first game against LGD, he showed his suppressive power in the bottom lane.

Moreover, in the mid-game team fight, he performed amazingly with Kaisa, leading EDG to victory.

In the following games, Uzi also performed exceptionally well. Even though it was not the Censer version, he was still able to carry the entire game as an ADC.

After a few days of games, EDG's players finally found their form.

Scout is getting better and better.

In terms of the early rhythm, I was able to cooperate with the factory manager with ease.

I also got multiple solo kills online!!
It can be said that Scout is already taking over EDG's invincible mid laner status! !
As for Gu Chen...

He didn't choose any warrior to perform in the top lane, but picked up a meat tank.

One of the reasons is that Abu asked him to retain his strength.

The second reason is that the team has Uzi, Scout and Zz1tai. Not only can he play as a tank, but he can also practice playing tank and increase his hero pool! !

after all!

Gu Chen definitely has some experience in mixing things up!!

However, Gu Chen's mediocre performance disappointed many viewers outside.

[The era of Cat God is over! ! He didn’t want to play the mid lane, but had to switch to the top lane. He plays a tank in the top lane, so he can only mess up every game! ! ]

[Alas, I knew that it was impossible to just go to the top lane easily. I can only play as a tank to get by, and I can't use any warriors to carry! ]

[I can only say that it was definitely a wrong choice for Cat God to move up! I guess Cat God’s strength has declined, so he had to move up, right? ]

[It's really disappointing that Maoshen is messing around like this. If he really can't do it, I think he should just retire!! ]

[Now the whole team relies on Stain and Scout! Cat God has become a pure loser! ]

Many of Gu Chen’s fans feel that Gu Chen’s level has declined.

Many people even clamored for Gu Chen to retire.

Gu Chen just smiled away the outside world's doubts.

Over the years, he has seen a lot of ups and downs. In the past, when he encountered these black fans, he might have fought back, but now he doesn't want to pay any attention to them at all.

Because Scout and Uzi were in excellent form, Gu Chen and Ray took turns in the top lane.

When facing a strong team, Gu Chen will provide backup.

The other teams basically just let Ray play.

This summer season, Gu Chen played much more comfortably. Unlike the mid lane, where any mage he picked was responsible for operations and output, the top laner only needed to play a tank, find the position in a team fight, and then just fight with all his might.

As the game progresses, the regular season comes to an end.

In the end, thanks to the outstanding performance of Uzi, Scout and Zzitai, EDG was ranked third from the bottom at the beginning! !
This can be considered a normal performance by EDG.

Next up!
It's time to play the S8 Summer Playoffs!!
