LOL: You don’t want to be broadcast live on the entire network, right.?

Chapter 384: Really not playing four to protect one? All the thieves are on, right?
After Top Esports took down the Baron, five people returned to the city for supplies, and the Captain took out a critical strike cloak and a pickaxe.

Wawa commented: "Looking at Gangplank's equipment, is he planning to buy two Infinity Edges? But I feel like this might be the last wave, and RNG may not be able to withstand it."

Miller exclaimed: "The cooperation between Gangplank and Tsar just now was really beautiful. When Tsar's ultimate was avoided by Xia's ultimate, I thought it was going to be a show, but it turned out to be a combo trap. Gangplank was the real killer! Is this the bond between the two of them?"

Top Esports pushed forward in the middle lane, but RNG encountered a problem. Xiaohu's Galio developed too poorly and his damage was not enough to push the line.

As a result, RNG was defeated step by step and was pushed to the front of the high ground.

UZI ordered his teammates to hold on: "We can't let go, we have to defend the high ground tower!"

UZI’s Xayah didn’t have flash, so he didn’t dare to go up and clear the minions, so he could only let his teammates go up.

The soldiers entered the defense tower, and the RNG team pressed forward together. Suddenly, the Captain's powder barrel appeared in front of the high ground.

This distance made UZI hesitate. He only needed to take one step forward to hit the powder barrel, but it seemed risky.

In the end, he chose to walk forward and light the gunpowder barrel. The moment Xia approached the gunpowder barrel, the Captain's Q skill entered the gunpowder barrel and detonated it!

Almost at the same time, a second gunpowder barrel appeared in front of Xia and exploded together!
"Feathers flying all over the sky!" Xia used her ultimate skill, but she only had one third of her health left!
Wawa exclaimed: "The Captain's EQE combo hit a critical hit, Xia was almost killed instantly! Oh my god, what kind of damage is this?"

"No, Xia's ultimate just landed, and Captain's ultimate landed. Xia is going to die!"

UZI roared: "Protect me!"

So Xiaohu's Galio used his ultimate, and Ornn also used his ultimate, and they knocked Zac down from the air!

Luo Qingwu uses a pair to provide a shield, and uses his ultimate skill to enter the field in a flash to find the approaching Tsar.

However, at the moment when all RNG people gathered to protect UZI, the Captain fired his second EQE and hit four people at the same time!

Except for Xia, everyone else was hit by this AOE.

Explode instantly!

"Charge, charge, charge!" Peanut's Zach took the lead in the charge. The opponent was in this state and had no power to resist.

Braum jumped up and followed Zac, using his ultimate to keep him, while Lee Sang-hyuk's Tsar dealt damage crazily.

Wawa passionately commented: "The Captain used an explosive AOE, and I felt that the game was about to end. RNG was defeated and had no power to resist!"

"The Tsar's output is also very high. In this battle, the Tsar also brought the Omen of theft. Although he didn't get any kills, he still stole a lot of money!"

Guan Zeyuan continued: "The teamfight turned into a one-sided massacre. Although UZI's Xia left, all his teammates were gone. A zero-for-four exchange, RNG is going to lose!"

In the official live broadcast room, the barrage exploded:

[Is this the Pirate King? It's so scary. ]

[This captain is too aggressive, the damage is explosive! Scary! ]

[I feel like the talent of Kleptomancy is quite interesting, stealing so much money. 】

[Got it! Although the bottom lane of this Top Esports team is a bit weak, the mid, top and jungle are strong. ]

【To be honest, I didn’t seem to feel the existence of the bottom lane in this game. 】

[This bottom lane doesn't exist yet? So much has been given away. ]

As everyone was talking, Top Esports ended the game in one wave. UZI knew that he could not defend five people, so he could only stay in the fountain and give up defending his home.

Wawa cheered loudly: "As the crystal of RNG's base exploded, let us congratulate Top Esports for winning the first game since its formation. It is also the opening game of the new season. Congratulations to them!"

After winning the competition on stage, Chen Yiqiu consoled them: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone."

Before when he was in SKT, he couldn't say that SKT was his team, but now in Top Esports, it's completely fine for him to say that it is his team. He is the captain now, so naturally he has to give his players some encouragement.

Everyone took off their headphones.

The audience cheered in unison:

"Tao Bo! Tao Bo! Tao Bo!"

"Reaper! So cool!"

"Reaper! I want to give birth to your monkeys!"

"MVP! MVP!"

On the big screen, the MVP selection was over, and Chen Yiqiu deservedly won the MVP, with an output share of 42%! It was incredible!

Li Xianghe and Xiaohuasheng came over together, and Xiaohuasheng said, "I feel like I won this game without doing anything. It's really easy to play with Yiqiu."

Chen Yiqiu joked: "If you continue to slack off like this, we might really lose."

Peanut patted his chest and assured: "I will carry the next game, really, I'm just not used to playing in the LPL, I'm a little nervous, I will be better in the next game!"

Chen Yiqiu said: "Then I'll lie down for the next round, and I'll watch you perform."

Hearing this, Peanut immediately felt guilty: "That won't do. Although I can carry the game, Brother Yi Qiu has to play well too."

Chen Yi Qiu glanced to the left and saw Liu Qingsong and Chen Wei standing next to him, feeling a little awkward.

Although we have been training together for a while, we are usually busy with training and have no time for team building, so our relationship is not very close.

"Let's go back together." Chen Yi Qiu called.

The five members of Topbo walked back together.

In the audience, Ponytail, who was watching the game, breathed a sigh of relief. The current situation looked pretty good, and judging from the atmosphere on the scene, the audience was enjoying it quite a lot.

At the same time, the mobile phone in Ponytail's hand was also broadcasting the game. She used it to observe the barrage on the live broadcast platform and perceive the audience's thoughts through the barrage.

At present, online audiences have a very favorable impression of Top Esports, especially Chen Yi Qiu.

Then, Ponytail received the message and opened it to see: "Currently, 36.3% of the players who announced they would quit the game are watching the game."

Seeing this number, Ponytail's heart tightened. This was just based on the competition. It would take some time for them to return to the game, and it only accounted for one-third of the players who had abandoned the game.

Judging from the analysis in their previous meeting, if they want to get most of the players who have quit the game to come back, LPL will probably need to achieve good results in world competitions, at least MSI. The road ahead is long and arduous.

On the other side, in the RNG locker room, after the first loss, the RNG players were a little autistic.

I was thinking that I would have a chance to take revenge, after all, the bottom lane of Top Esports was obviously weak, but I didn't expect to be overturned, which was a huge shame.

Feng Ge comforted the team members: "Although we lost the first game, don't be discouraged, we still have a chance. Let's discuss how to play the next game. The biggest problem in the first game was the early fight in the bottom lane. Give Jayce..."

Hearing this, Xiaohu became embarrassed, but he didn't expect UZI to suddenly say: "Don't play four protecting one."

The RNG team was stunned, as if they didn't understand what UZI meant.

Although UZI also stated before the first game that he did not want to play four protecting one, in the end the coach followed the tactical arrangement of four protecting one, and UZI did not object. He just asked not to say the three words "four protecting one".

But UZI has already started to oppose it before anything has been said?
Brother Feng comforted him, "It's okay, we are not playing four protecting one, it's still the same strategy as the first game."

Xiaohu almost couldn't hold it when he heard this. Wasn't it four protecting one in the first game?
Is this a game that is not called four-on-one, but is actually four-on-one? However, this time UZI's attitude was very firm: "I'm not kidding, I will play three cores in the next game, no, two cores, I will play the tool, mid lane and top lane carry."

Hearing this, Letme and Xiaohu were stunned. What was going on? Wasn't this just asking them to die?
"Wait a minute, I want to ask, is Galio considered a core? Or should I continue with Galio?" Xiaohu was witty. He still couldn't believe that UZI really didn't play four protecting one.

Letme also understood, and he also asked: "Titan, Ornn, and Cho'Gun should also be cores, right? Can I pick one at random?"

UZI's face turned dark. He felt that these two people were treating him as a fool.

Indeed, there is no very clear and definite definition of whether or not a hero is a core hero.

However, the four heroes mentioned by these two people are obviously not them.

"You two are almost enough."

"Brother Feng, you make the arrangements. Let's try a two-core lineup. You are in charge of BP and they both must obey!" UZI did not give Letme and Xiaohu the opportunity to find loopholes and directly let Brother Feng make the decision.

"Okay, in that case, let's give it a try." Brother Feng didn't care. After the first game, he felt there was no possibility of winning. So he took this opportunity to see if the mid and top positions could carry the team.

In the Top Esports lounge, everyone at Top Esports is discussing how to play the next game.

Coach Hongmi said: "It was a hard first game. Everyone performed very well. Keep it up. Although there were some small mistakes, they are understandable."

Chen Wei lowered his head. This small mistake was obviously directed at their bottom lane.

UZI had a great time killing in the bottom lane. If it weren’t for the strong performance of the mid and top laners, he would probably have been eliminated.

Hongmi found Chen Wei and Liu Qingsong and said, "Although there are still many areas that need improvement, it's not a big problem. Your performance is already very good. After all, RNG's bottom lane has been working together for a long time, and this is just your first game."

Chen Yi Qiu has already taken out his mobile phone to check the pace of the Internet.

In the stress-resistant forum, the focus of everyone's discussion has shifted from the competition to the talent of Kleptomancy.

#Oh my god, did you guys watch the game? This omen of theft is really powerful.

#Letme really made me laugh to death, the Captain had two skills at level 1, and Letme was completely stunned.

#Letme is like this, it's understandable.

#Having two skills at level one is a bit abnormal, but I am lucky.

#I will also have this talent in the future, and I can just steal it.

#I thought this talent was useless before, but it turns out that it’s just my bad luck?

Chen Yiqiu was looking at his phone when Hongmi suddenly walked up to him and said, "Your understanding is correct. This version of Kleptomancy is quite useful and fits the Captain very well. However, I don't think there will be any Captains in the next game. They will definitely target us."

Chen Yiqiu responded: "It's okay, I still have heroes who can bring Kleptomaniac Omen, and there are still many."

He looked at Lee Sang Hyuk, "Want to continue playing in the middle lane? Stealing omen?"

Li Xianghe spread his hands: "I'm fine with it, no problem."

At this point, Peanut asked a very serious question: "Can I use Kleptomancy's jungle?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Chen Yiqiu smiled: "Even if you have Kleptomancy Omen, you won't have a chance to trigger it. How many times do you plan to gank per minute?"

Lee Sang Hyuk complained: "You'd better not join in the fun and fight properly."

Little Peanut scratched his head, he really wanted to take it.

Hongmi said, "Okay, it's almost time now, let's go and play the game!"

In the commentary booth at the game, Wawa explained: "The upcoming match is the second match between the two sides. In the previous match, Top Esports relied on the Kleptomancy Omen in the middle and upper positions to hold on to the economy and finally completed the comeback."

"In this game, Top Esports set an example for other clubs. Now it depends on how both sides adjust in the second game."

Miller muttered, "I think we can see if RNG can come up with a way to deal with Kleptomancy. From the last game, it seems that they are not very good at using this talent. None of the five players have it."

As the two were talking, the players from both teams came on stage and took their respective positions.

After everything was ready, the second BP began. In this game, Top Esports was on the blue side and RNG was on the red side.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "As expected, RNG banned Gangplank right at the start. This hero is quite special. His Q skill can directly trigger Kleptomancy. Since talents cannot be banned, we banned the relevant heroes."

"In addition to Gangplank, RNGBAAN also dropped Shen and Fiora, two heroes that Letme couldn't handle."

Entering the hero selection stage, the two sides exchanged ideas, and soon the lineup was determined.

Blue side Taobo: top lane Swain, jungle Kha'Zix, mid lane Zoe, ADC Tristana, support Alistar.

Red side RNG: top lane Gnar, jungle Sejuani, mid lane Clockwork, ADC Juggernaut, support Thresh.

When RNG's lineup was revealed, the three commentators were dumbfounded!

Wawa was puzzled: "Is this lineup really chosen by RNG? Why does it feel wrong to me? The God of War is a tool man ADC, and his ability to carry the team in the late game is very limited."

"RNG's mid and top players picked two heroes that can play core roles. Whether it's Gnar or Clockwork, if they develop well, they can influence the outcome of the battle. What about Tiangang?"

Guan Zeyuan also couldn't understand: "RNG used a standard four-protect-one lineup in the first game, but why did they change 180 degrees in the second game? From my personal point of view, I am very happy to see RNG try this, but I still have to ask, can they really play it out?"

At this time, in the LPL official live broadcast room, the audience was discussing on the barrage:

[Did the RNG coach misplace the notebook? Is this the lineup that RNG should play? ]

[I feel like RNG will only lose more miserably if they play like this.]

[Have you practiced it regularly? If you haven't practiced it regularly, wouldn't it be a death wish to use it now? ]

[Xiaohu's clockwork? Is it really possible? ]

【Oh my god, Letme dares to play Gnar. 】

At this time, UZI began to put pressure on the middle and top of RNG:

"In this game, the jungler should go to the middle and top lane to help. Our bottom lane is a mixed hero, so there is no need for him to come to the bottom lane."

"Xiaohu, Letme, I'm just watching your performance. I'll assist you in this game."

Xiaohu and Letme's foreheads were sweating. Who was on the other side? One was the best mid laner in history, and the other was the best top laner in history.

On our side, there are two players who are somewhat popular in LPL, but no one knows them in the World Championship.

The gap is too big. Can't we wait until we play against a weaker team before trying this trick?

Entering the game screen, the director gave the talent situation of both sides, and Wawa explained:

"Here we go, the talents on both sides. Topbo's mid and top laners continue to use Kleptomaniac. This is quite bold, while RNG doesn't even have a single Kleptomaniac!"
