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

Inside the FPX backstage lounge.

The five members of the team walked off the field with somewhat grim expressions.

After arriving in the locker room, the coach did not blame anyone, but comforted everyone and told them not to worry.

Think about it too.

He has already won the first game. Even if he loses this one, he still has several games to play. It’s not over yet!

"Okay, don't be too discouraged, this is only the second game. After all, EDG is not a weak team. They are the team that won three consecutive championships. It is impossible for them to not have some skills!"

Assistant coach Refra1n smiled and comforted him.

The head coach Zhan Ma on the side was holding a notebook, stroking his chin, and sighed: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk!!"

"I didn't expect that Cat God is still so strong, and he's still in the top lane!"

"Even though we restricted him so much, he still managed to grow!"

Hearing the head coach mention Gu Chen, Jin Gong, who had been silent, came down from the playing seat and raised his head.

He looked at his teammates, then said to the coach: "Mao Shen's top laner... is indeed quite strong. I can't beat him!"

To everyone's surprise, Jin Gong admitted on the spot that he was not as strong as Gu Chen.

When everyone heard this, they did not blame him, but instead comforted him.

Who doesn't know Gu Chen's strength?

When Gu Chen was still in the middle lane, he had already dominated the entire middle lane. Even Faker, who won two consecutive championships, was just a defeated opponent by him!

The title of the best player in the league's history is not undeserved!!
"It's really hard to deal with Cat God with just brute force. Next time, Jin Gong, you should just play as a tank to start the fight!!"

Zhan Ma arranged Jin Gong directly, then looked at the others and said slowly: "Our advantage actually lies in the rhythm of the midfield, so the core point should be placed on the midfield!"

"Let's ignore this one for now and try a new plan!"

Doinb's eyes lit up, as if he had understood something. He looked at Zhanma and said excitedly, "That means you want me to take that—"

Zhan Ma nodded slightly, and then said confidently: "This is also our core system strategy!"

"I want to see what EDG's mid and jungle can do to deal with this!"

"It's a competition of rhythm. We have never lost before!"

……

This World Championship has attracted more attention than the previous one.

The main reason is that the hero pool that Gu Chen showed one after another in the top lane really shocked everyone.

During S8, they still thought that Gu Chen could only play as a tank, or use a mage to play top lane.

It was a hot topic at the time that Gu Chen's move to the top lane was a failure.

After all, the S9 version is the version of the top lane warrior. How can a mid laner or a mage play well in the top lane?
But this time, Gu Chen really slapped all of them in the face.

Gu Chen is actually a warrior on the road? ! !

and……

And had a great time!
Even a top laner like Khan was defeated on the spot, and now he is only one step away from the title of "the world's best top laner".

If he wins the championship, then his title will be undisputed!!

Because of the immersion in the drama, the scene was already very lively before the third game of the BO5 even started, and many viewers were excitedly looking forward to the start of the third game! !

At this time, the scene has switched to the on-site home commentary, while China has returned to the commentary booth. Wawa, Miller and Jide have also taken a short rest.

As the players were entering the field one after another, the three of them began to discuss: "After EDG had Mao Shen on the field, it felt like their momentum had increased a lot!!"

"Yes, after all, Maoshen is the core of EDG. Moreover, based on the analysis of previous game data, the games in which Maoshen participated are almost 100% won!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, these statistics are truly terrifying! No wonder Maoshen was able to win so many games in a row and top the Korean server. This is truly terrifying!"

"but……"

Suddenly, I started to analyze seriously: "FPX's strength is still not weak. Look at these two games, EDG won very hard."

"FPX's mid and jungle rhythm never stopped, doinb's mid lane has always been advantageous!!"

His words hit the nail on the head and got to the core point.

Many viewers nodded involuntarily.

Especially EDG fans, although they were happy that EDG won the second game, the problems in it were also very obvious.

EDG's mid and jungle are a little weak!

"Yeah, presumably, EDG is aware of this, and they will probably respond in the third game, right?"

Miller felt that EDG, a veteran team, would definitely be able to deal with this situation.

Wawa: "Yes, in this competition, the first thing to compare is game operation, and the second thing to compare is BP. Next, let's take a look at the BP of the third game!"

He took over the conversation very well, just after both sides were ready.

……

AccorHotels Arena!!

The BP interface of both sides was also displayed on the big screen on site.

EDG is on the blue side, FPX is on the red side.

In terms of the ban position, FPX did not make too many changes. The target was still Gu Chen, but the Sword Demon was put on the original basis.

Sword Demon, Sword Demon, Jayce!!

These three heroes were banned by FPX after careful consideration. In this game, Warhorse decided to let GimGoon withstand the pressure, so they had to get rid of these heroes who could suppress the opponent in the line.

EDG chose to ban Pantheon and Kled, which are doinb's two specialties and they deserve respect.

In this version, these two heroes go to the middle lane, which is really difficult to counter.

The main reason is that the support is too fast and the control is stable, which will make FPX's four-pack two more stable, so it is necessary to ban.

"It can be seen that both sides have made a well-thought-out BP!"

On the commentary seat, Wawa was not too surprised: "EDG continues to target the mid lane, FPX continues to target the top lane, both sides are fine."

"And FPX is still very stable. They added Aatrox in the third pick. They think that Maoshen might be in good shape, so we can't let him continue to use Aatrox!"

Miller on the side chuckled and said, "The Sword Demon is gone, but the hero pool of the Cat God cannot be targeted!"

"What I am looking forward to now is whether Maoshen will continue to bring out some new top lane heroes?"

After hearing Miller's words, the audience of EDG in the official live broadcast room and Gu Chen's fans couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

It can be said that Gu Chen used a different hero in every game in this world competition, and his proficiency in each hero was at its highest level.

And now, among these top lane warriors, there are many heroes that have never been used.

Qing Gangying, Volibear, Weapon, Knife Girl...

They really want to know, is Gu Chen really that kind of invincible genius, for every hero he plays individually, he is also at the top level?

……

very quickly.

It's time for both sides to choose their heroes.

EDG is the first choice!!

In the EDG team, Maokai was about to ask Uzi if he wanted to be the first blood AD, but Gu Chen, who was on the outermost side, said first: "Coach, let me choose first!"

Maokai frowned and asked hesitantly, "You... should choose the top position first?"

His doubt was about his ability, on the contrary, he had absolute confidence in Gu Chen. Because according to the strategy, Gu Chen's second round selection was the best for the top position.

In this way, in the second round, FPX's BP may continue to target Gu Chen.

Gu Chen smiled and nodded: "Well, I'll choose it!"

Maokai thought for two and a half seconds, and finally nodded: "Okay, actually this is a good idea, so you can bring out some other heroes!"

Gu Chen was the top laner, and he was fully confident.

After all, even when facing a top top laner like Khan, he could easily crush him. Now, shouldn’t he be able to easily defeat GimGoon?

"So what do you choose?"

Maokai continued to ask.

This time, Gu Chen chuckled, which made Mao Kai, the factory director and others a little confused.

Until... Gu Chen slowly uttered the three words "Lucian", they were all stunned! !

"real or fake?"

The factory manager on the side turned around in surprise and asked in confusion: "Xiao Chen, are you going to play Lucian in the top lane?"

Uzi was also surprised: "Brother Chen, you can also play Lucian?"

Lucian!!

This hero is rarely used by Uzi, even in his usual ranks and training games.

As for Gu Chen, they had never seen him take it out.

That's why some people have such big emotional fluctuations.

The truth is, they don’t know the true extent of Gu Chen’s Lucian! !

"Hey hey hey!"

Gu Chen waved his hand with a relaxed look and said with a smile: "Relax, don't panic, do you think I will use a hero I am not familiar with?"

As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly understood! !

Yes!

Would Gu Chen use a hero he is not familiar with? Moreover, it is the finals now, and he dares to use this hero only if he has full confidence!

Gu Chen continued with a smile and said: "Just lock it first, this Lucian, AD and mid laner can all go, just enough to trick FPX!"

"As I said before, FPX's trump cards have not been revealed yet. I'm sure they will reveal some of them this time. It's just right to use Lucian to trick them!"

He knows FPX quite well.

In the previous life, when playing against IG in the semi-finals, FPX brought out a mid laner like Titan, which caused IG to lose and finally won the championship of this world championship.

And now, we have to see what kind of lineup FPX will come up with this time.

After hearing what Gu Chen said, Mao Kai nodded and agreed to Gu Chen's request.

From Gu Chen's words, he immediately thought of a lot of things and felt that it was indeed necessary to deceive FPX.

The next moment, EDG's first floor was locked on the big screen and live broadcast.

Holy Lance Ranger——Lucian!!
[Huh? ? Lucian? It doesn't seem to fit the stain! ! ]

[That’s right, there are Kaisa and Xayah outside, why don’t you pick Xayah? ? Lucian is at a huge disadvantage once he’s picked!! ]

[The displacement is there, but it still feels difficult to use online! ! ]

[Lucian with stains is quite something, I wonder if he can show it in this game!!]

Originally, people were discussing what EDG would choose in this game. When they saw that it was Lucian, many viewers were a little surprised!!
Because they think that this Lucian was chosen for Uzi, and in the current version, picking Lucian to play AD is not a good choice.

It is difficult to kill FPX's bottom lane in itself, as his range is relatively short compared to other ADs, which requires him to get closer to the enemy to kill.

This will easily give local governments the opportunity to open businesses.

Moreover, Lucian is quite dependent on his skills, which consume a lot of mana, which leads to insufficient mana.

……

Lucian's appearance did not cause much fluctuation.

Although AD Lucian is relatively rare in this version, many people know that Uzi has a high level of proficiency in playing Lucian, so it is not surprising that he is used.

Continue selecting people.

Both sides started an in-depth BP battle! !
The first round was over soon.

FPX selected the bottom lane and top lane, leaving the jungler and mid lane positions for the second round.

This gave EDG the opportunity to target the mid lane.

The ban in the second round was basically aimed at doinb.

It's time to choose the players.

FPX did not leave the final counter position to the top laner, but to the mid laner, which surprised many people.

Soon, the second round of banpick came to an end.

FPX here saved the mid laner position until the end.

Waiting for the hero to come out from the fifth floor of EDG.

It seems that FPX will finally determine their mid lane after seeing what EDG's top laner chooses!

"Now it's Cat God's turn to attack!"

At FPX's combat seat, behind the players, Zhan Ma stared at EDG's fifth floor with sharp eyes.

Now in the entire BP, EDG’s top lane position has not appeared.

He really wanted to see what top laner Gu Chen would bring out.

The audience off the field were also staring at the big screen, wanting to see what Gu Chen would choose as the top laner in this game.

FPX’s top lane hero has already come out.

Aoun!!
Obviously, FPX wants GimGoon to stay in the mixed lane.

Now it depends on what Gu Chen chooses.

But the next second, when the hero from the fifth floor came out, the whole audience was silent.

The 5th floor of EDG did not hesitate too much. After only two and a half seconds, he locked onto a hero - Xia! !
this moment! !

There was an uproar at the scene, and everyone was stunned and surprised.

The three people in the commentary booth looked at each other in bewilderment, and were unable to react at first.

"Xayah? Eh? Did EDG make the wrong choice? How come there are two ADs..."

"No! No!! Lucian is not the AD, Xayah is!"

"That means……"

"Is this Lucian the top laner for Cat God?"

After a brief analysis, the three of them suddenly realized to their amazement that EDG's Lucian was not prepared for Uzi, but for Gu Chen! !

Moreover, seeing that EDG did not look panicked at all, it was obvious that this was not a wrong choice.

Gulu! !
The three were stunned!!

Lucian in the top lane, this is the first time they have encountered such a player in all these years of commentary. (End of this chapter)
