LOL: I am Lee Sang Hyuk in my rebirth!

For RNG, the goal of this MSI is quite clear.

Their real opponent is only T1.

As for other teams, although they might be able to steal one or two games from them, when it comes to a real bo5 game, RNG is still quite confident that they can easily win.

The only thing that really stands in their way of becoming the MSI World Champion is T1, or rather, Faker alone.

Therefore, although RNG was under great pressure when facing T1, they did not intend to give up. Every encounter was valuable research material for them.

So in the first game, they used RNG's best lineup in the league.

After T1 picked Jayce on the second floor of the red side, Xiaohu followed the idea of ​​a legendary top laner and said that it would be stupid not to pick Lucian in this game.

Although Xiaohu's Lucian is often ridiculed as a double lane, a triple lane, and a quad lane, it seems that his Lucian does not have the terrifying suppression power in the top lane like TheShy did at his peak.

But there is a fact in front of everyone, that is, Xiaohu's top lane Lucian still has a 100% win rate this year.

Even though RNG has fallen into the loser group and has been reborn from the ashes and struggled to reach MSI, its winning rate is still unquestionable.

Dare to choose, dare to win.

Therefore, when the opponent showed Jayce, RNG did not hesitate to face T1, which had a % win rate throughout the season, and took out Lucian.

Although it is only the group stage, there will definitely be a 100% winning rate that will be broken today.

However, T1 had already anticipated Xiaohu's Lucian.

Just like DK tricked Lee Sang-hyeok into playing Galio in the LCK finals, all of this was a trap.

T1 banned Udyr, who Wei had helped out mindlessly, early on, forcing RNG to use Volibear as a lower-position substitute.

Afterwards, RNG gave Crying, who was under a lot of pressure from Lee Sang-hyeok, his best card, the Card, and gave Ming the Titan, who was good at roaming.

This is the rhythm lineup that RNG is best at.

However, the jungler Morgana that T1 chose for Oner in the last pick instantly put all of this to bed.

After contributing to the debut of Rumble in the jungle position yesterday, which led a number of teams to start urgently training Rumble, T1 once again contributed to the debut of Morgana in the jungle position.

The lineups of both sides are selected.

RNG (Blue Side): Lucian, Volibear, Twisted Fate, Kai'Sa, Nautilus.

T1 (Red Side): Jayce, Morgana, LeBlanc, Tristana, Alistar.

As soon as this lineup came out, everyone on RNG had an expression of pressure on their faces.

Morgana has appeared in many high-end games in the Korean server, but this is the first time RNG has encountered her in a competition. This move made the RNG mid and jungle who relied on point control feel uncomfortable as if they had been defended.

Especially Wei, he had no way to deal with Morgana in the jungle.

"It feels like the only hope in this game is to trust Li Yuanhao. In these lanes, Lucian has the advantage against Jayce, right? Oh, don't mention it. The anchor is so frustrated. I have no choice but to come back to broadcast."

In the live broadcast room, mlxg started the broadcast listlessly with his classic red nose.

"Whether I hope RNG wins or T1 wins, I definitely hope so. Hey, neutral commentator, neutral commentator, rational analysis, if RNG wants to win this game, I think they can only trust Li Yuanhao. Can he beat Zeus? It's not that I look down on RNG, it's just that it's hard to win with this lineup."

"The main thing is that the opponent is not a scumbag, the opponent is T1. Don't you understand how strong T1 is?"

Mlxg expressed his views in the live broadcast room, but the barrage was full of people just watching the fun and making jokes.

[RNG can be neutral against T1, the anchor still hates RNG too much. 】

[Awkward! With all the things RNG did, the anchor didn’t support T1, so he must still love RNG in his heart! ]

[It’s really hard to choose, mainly because mlxg was beaten to retirement by Faker! ]

[Then you must hate RNG? They are already semi-retired, but in the end they still send him to get beaten! ]

[LCK is full of rotten fish and shrimp, and there has been no world champion for many years. 】

"No, don't be so mean, I have a good relationship with Li Ge. We were supposed to go out last time, but I overslept while playing Genshin Impact." Mlxg said, "Hey, if you think LCK is a rotten fish and shrimp, then I have nothing to say. As for me and RNG, I can only say that I still hope Shi Senming and Li Yuanhao can win. I can only be neutral."

"I support Li Yuanhao. I think he should be OK if he doesn't go against Faker. He is really good in the top lane. I think he plays better than him in the mid lane."

Mlxg said this while leaving a few messages on WeChat.

"Ah? How did Faker's LeBron James move up? That's G! Li Ge went to catch Xiaohu specifically. This is a bit uncivilized."

Zeus and Li Xianghe switched lines on the field.

It is obviously not a good choice to use Jayce in the top lane to fight Lucian, and Zeus himself is a player who is a bit easy to be caught.

Now with this switch, if Lucian fights against Leblanc in the top lane, then Lucian will no longer have a stable advantage.

On the contrary, when Card goes against Jayce in the middle lane, it is difficult for him to get a real advantage. Card is not a big C, and Crying is not a player who plays big C-type heroes.

RNG can force a lane change, and when Card fights against Leblanc in the top lane, the area where Card can roam will be further reduced, and he is still at a disadvantage. When Lucian fights against Jayce in the middle lane, it will be difficult for him to defeat Zeus because the middle lane is short.

However, the RNG on the field did not realize this. They saw that the opponent's support missed the bottom half of the area, and instead of helping the top laner to grab the middle grass eye, they grabbed the bottom half area position in advance.

RNG subconsciously thought that T1 intended to let Jayce in the top lane to withstand the pressure, and then focus on Gumayusi's Tristana in the team, so that Tristana could start the rhythm of pushing the tower and thus limit Ming's roaming.

The upper and lower lanes exchange development, which is the countermeasures used by many teams to deal with RNG's multiplayer lane in the upper lane.

RNG was not in a hurry.

After Xiaohu stood in the grass in the middle of the river, he walked upwards in a formula, ready to wait for Jayce in the grass and then use a formula to suppress him.

However, when he approached the grass, a figure suddenly emerged from the grass.

AEA.

A chain was thrown out and hit Xiaohu accurately.

Xiaohu was shocked. He never expected that the person in the grass was not Zeus but Faker.

In a panic, he learned the E skill in seconds, and used E to pull away Lee Sang-hyuk's chain while dodging the coming comet. He turned around and wanted to attack A, but Lee Sang-hyuk had already retreated in time.

In the first wave of blood exchange, Xiaohu suffered a loss and lost more than 100 health points in vain.

"Ah, the Ahri in the top lane." Xiaohu frowned and swallowed his saliva as he looked at the ID.

Faker.

Xiaohu thought that he could escape the hell of laning against Faker by moving to the top lane, but he didn't expect that he was like a ghost that lingered around.

But there is no other way now, I can only grit my teeth and endure it.

But can you really withstand it?
Lee Sang-hyeok abandoned the Electrocute that LeBron often used, but he did not choose Swiftness like Showmaker, but directly chose Comet plus Scorch.

There is only one purpose, which is to put enough pressure on Xiaohu in the laning phase.

Lucian is very fragile and has low innate magic resistance, and most importantly, he has no recovery ability.

Under normal circumstances, when Lucian holds E, it is difficult for Leblanc to perform Electrocute in the actual laning phase, but it is different with Comet.

It only takes one skill to trigger it, and LeBlanc's Q is a directional skill. Facing such continuous Comet and Scorch, Lucian simply can't handle it.

Comet Leblanc sacrifices her instant burst in the late game in exchange for laning strength.

But he didn't need to burst out in this game. The lineup of LeBlanc, Jayce, Morgana, and T1 was actually a relatively novel poke lineup.

Of course, Ahri has no recovery ability, so it is still possible to win by competing in skills.

However, Lucian’s fight against Leblanc is not the biggest problem.

The biggest problem is Xiaohu against Faker.

After xiaohu was careless at level 1 and lost his health, he began to feel insecure under the ID of Faker.

The weaker it is, the more flaws it will have.

Li Xianghe took advantage of Lucian's last hit and moved forward, then used W to hit the comet.

In fact, xiaohu could have used E to move forward and hit twice to gain back the health.

But he was afraid.

Facing the aggressive Lee Sang-hyuk, he just kept pushing back to avoid being killed by Lee Sang-hyuk.

Over-defending will lead to more and more losses in blood exchange, and more and more knives will be missed. "Oh, no, Li Yuanhao. He is like this again." Mlxg looked at Xiaohu's several shots and couldn't help but sigh. "That's it, I have to wait for Jackeylove to call in the group again."

[Opening the champagne now? 】

【Too neutral, anchor.】

"I know him too well. He started to lose from the beginning. It's impossible to play against him." Mlxg said, "In fact, Li Yuanhao is quite strong, but there is no way. He instantly withered when he met Faker. I don't know why. I feel that if the opponent's ID is covered, he may still be able to resist, but it feels like there is no way to deal with it once the ID is revealed."

In just three minutes, Xiaohu's health was reduced to half, and the military line was stuck in the middle of the top lane.

The junglers on both sides were farming upwards, and Xiaohu felt that he was in danger, so he wanted to push the line of soldiers over quickly and adjust the angle, wanting to use the soldiers as a springboard and hit as many soldiers as possible.

Compared to Leblanc, Lucian still has an advantage in pushing speed.

Li Xianghe also seemed to reveal a flaw that allowed Xiaohu to Q the soldiers at the same time. He raised his hand to attack the soldiers, and Xiaohu seized the opportunity and decisively raised his hand to use holy light to penetrate the soldiers.

However, Li Xianghe immediately pressed S to interrupt his action as if following the script, and then twisted his body.

He dodged the holy light that penetrated his body.

And now, it is xiaohu who has revealed the flaw.

W Shadow Phantom directly stepped on xiaohu's face.

It's the same trick again, the classic trick of pretending to reveal a flaw and setting a trap to lure people into the trap.

Xiaohu knew that this was his usual tactic, but there was nothing he could do.

For other mid-lane masters, it’s enough to just do this occasionally, but Li Xianghe gives people the feeling that he does this all the time.

Others always say that he gets scared when he sees the ID Faker.

Xiaohu also felt aggrieved. Every move he made was real and fake. From the first-person perspective, you couldn't tell whether he really made a mistake or he was deliberately teasing you.

Xiaohu often didn't dare to bet on whether some of Lee Sang Hyuk's moves were traps, so he always seemed to be on the defensive.

Otherwise, why do you think Knight is so cowardly in front of Faker? It’s the same reason. He has been cheated too many times and dares not gamble anymore.

For example, now, Xiaohu was in a hurry to send the troops in, and when he saw Faker's "flaw", he couldn't help but wanted to hope for luck, but the result was that he was kicked on the head.

Xiaohu turned around and fired two shots at Leblanc, while Li Xianghe directly attacked him. Xiaohu was already at a disadvantage in terms of health, and now he was holding the line of soldiers, so he naturally did not fear.

Li Xianghe raised his hand, and Xiaohu pressed E and pulled back under pressure, but the skill thrown out by Li Xianghe was indeed the Q skill.

After an E chain hit Xiaohu and triggered the mark, Xiaohu only had less than one-third of his health left.

The two were too close to each other, and Xiaohu couldn't use the second stage of E just by moving around, while Lee Sang-hyuk's Ahri behind him was still chasing him.

Under tremendous pressure, Xiaohu was forced to use flash.

"Ghost, this is so brutal and stressful."

Although Mlxg in the live broadcast room saw Lee Sang-hyuk switch lanes, he already expected that Xiaohu would be suppressed by Lee Sang-hyuk.

But from a God's perspective, you can understand how cruel it is to fall to the ground.

"Li Yuanhao should have called for help in the voice chat by now. In this 1v1, his health has been reduced to this level. He has lost his flash and cannot get into the lane. Wei must go. Alas, there is no other way."

Mlxg put himself in the jungler's perspective and could only sigh.

And at this moment, Wei was indeed on his way up.

What's even more exaggerated is that Ming, who had just fought to return to the city in the bottom lane, did not return to the bottom lane. Instead, he came out of the fountain and went straight to the top lane at level 2.

The laning phase lasted only two minutes, and not only the jungler was beaten to the top lane, but even the support was beaten to the top lane.

He directly skipped the two-person road section and was given the three-person road treatment at the start.

If Crying in the mid lane hadn't taken advantage of Zeus' Jayce, the four of them would probably have just played mahjong.

There's no way, Lee Sang-hyuk's Enchantress is too exaggerated.

Wei took a look at the jungle and the situation in the top lane, and was stunned.

Xiaohu's Lucian and RNG have been playing for a long time. Not to say that they have the advantage in every laning phase, but at least they have never been at a disadvantage in 1v1. They can be the carry when helping, so they have a % win rate.

And today, TOP Tiger's underpants hero was able to be beaten like this in a 1v1 with Ahri in the early stage, which was simply unheard of.

It gave Wei a little shock to the devil.

In this case, we have to respect it.

Wei turned on the scan and cleared the vision of T1 at the river entrance, trying to scare Li Xianghe into releasing the line, and then the three of them gathered the line and entered the tower, trying to cross the tower or force Li Xianghe away to prevent him from eating the line.

Li Xianghe saw Wei's position, but did not retreat.

Wei immediately said, "Judging from his reaction, I guess Morgana is here too."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm behind." Ming said, and he had already walked directly from the line to the top lane.

"I dare not sell it. My health is not very good." Xiaohu said.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll flash and shoot, and Titan will follow up, we should be able to kill him, he ignites." Wei communicated actively.

Xiaohu stood forward, and Li Xianghe came up and used WQ Comet again to consume blood.

"No W! No W! We can kill, we can kill!" Wei's voice was full of excitement.

RNG decided that even if it meant sacrificing the development of Gala and Wei, they must limit Lee Sang-hyuk in order to gain momentum.

Wei pressed the Q skill, ran towards Faker, and used E to block his retreat.

Are you good at fighting, Li Xianghe? You are a powerful person! Even if you are good at fighting, how many can you fight?
Wei flashed and shot decisively, and Ming also appeared behind him.

But at this moment a black shield appeared on Li Sang Hyuk's body.

Oner flashed to use E, saving Lee Sang-hyuk, and at the same time turned back and used a Q to imprison Wei, allowing Lee Sang-hyuk to be successfully pulled back to the tower.

Ming quickly said: "It's okay, it's okay, let's push the line."

As he spoke, he hooked the wei that came running over, "Hit, hit, hit, push him back, or go get the river crabs."

Oner was hooked, Xiaohu slid forward to reduce Oner's health, and Wei also walked towards Oner to try to make Oner flash.

But Mlxg, who was looking at the sky from a bird's eye view, sighed, "It's over!"

The next second, the level 2 lehends also appeared in the top lane.

RNG realized something was wrong instantly, but it was too late.

He flashed Q and directly pushed up three people, and at the same time used W to push Wei directly into the defensive tower.

Li Xianghe turned around and cooperated with the defensive tower, easily killing Wei and getting the first blood.

That’s right, Lehends’ level 2 Minotaur received instructions from Lee Sang-hyuk and was also heading to the top lane.

Li Xianghe has watched a lot of RNG's game videos. Even though he did not go to MSI in S11, he studied RNG's game style privately.

At this moment, both supports have gone home, the supports have a chance to roam, and the top lane just happens to need help. Li Xianghe can probably guess that Ming is most likely coming.

So lehends was immediately called in. After all, Wei was clearly in the upper half of the map, and Gumayusi was alone in the bottom lane and was not in danger of being surpassed. In a 1v1, Kai'Sa couldn't beat Tristana in the early stages.

Even if Lehends didn't counter-camp this time, he wouldn't lose too much.

And when Wei appeared in the river, Li Xianghe deliberately did not leave, just to tell them that Morgana was nearby, but the opponent still planned to attack, and Li Xianghe knew it.

The fish is hooked.

RNG retreated in a panic, but lehends and Oner pursued them relentlessly, and Xiaohu's health was seriously low.

The Minotaur weakened and slowed down the opponent, and Oner chased and killed Xiaohu with an A.

Leblanc moved forward and used an E to force Ming to flash.

RNG, exploded!

And all this was within his calculations. (End of this chapter)
