Chapter 46 Yin-Yang Beauty, Sister Ta Zi
Before we knew it, it was April 29th.
Match day of the 2017 LPL Spring Split Finals!
Nanjing, Youth Olympic Sports Park Gymnasium.
With the big battle approaching, the LPL officials have started building hype early for this fateful showdown after the "Pig vs. Dog" war.
The promotional video vividly portrays the clash between the red miracle WE and the black-and-white dynasty EDG, creating a thrilling and exciting atmosphere.
On major esports forums, online communities, and Weibo, countless netizens have already been arguing wildly, with all sorts of predictions and pre-match analyses emerging one after another.
This is just how popular it is as the world's most popular MOBA game!
However, judging from the online public opinion, the voices supporting WE to win the championship have shown an overwhelming advantage!
"Brothers, let's analyze this rationally. WE will most likely defeat EDG 3-0 or 3-1 in this Spring Finals."
In the "Anti-Stress" forum on Baidu Tieba, a highly popular post analyzing the situation was written in great detail:
"WE is just too perfect right now! Xiye is rock solid in the mid lane, Mystic is in top form, and Condi is constantly pulling off dragon steals! Most importantly, it's the top lane! 957 is practically the ultimate evolved version this season. He's not only incredibly resilient under pressure, but he can also step up and carry. Whether it's Kled, Rumble, or Shen, he plays them all flawlessly!"
"On the other hand, A-Guang is okay against other top laners, but against Leg, he is completely outclassed in every aspect, from champion pool to laning details! They are not even in the same league."
Below the post, countless netizens echoed the sentiment.
Of course, when talking about EDG's top laner, one cannot ignore Lin Mo, who has been generating a lot of buzz these past few days.
"What if EDG brings in Mo? How should WE respond?" someone asked.
This comment immediately sparked a discussion among many people:
"You're overthinking it! Mo's 'ultimate tanky playstyle' is nothing compared to WE's!"
"Believe it or not, if Mo dared to pick a weak hero in front of 957 today, 957 wouldn't even give him a second glance! Leg Bro would just perfectly control the minion wave, farm every last minion, and then go to other lanes and wreak havoc!"
"When the team fight started at the 20-minute mark, Legge went in and completely destroyed EDG's backline, while Mo? He was just a walking ATM in team fights!"
This comment instantly garnered countless likes.
"That makes so much sense! These WE players are absolute rank-obsessed; they won't engage in any psychological warfare!"
"The 'wild god' has met his match; in the face of a true master of operations, being bad is the original sin!"
"To be fair, Mo's performance against RNG was like a novice beating a master; the same tactics won't work against WE!"
"I suggest Mo perform a handstand while washing his hair on the competition stage. Maybe Leg Bro will slip up a couple of knives just to watch the show."
"..."
……
The topic has sparked heated discussions online.
Meanwhile, at this very moment, at the Nanjing Youth Olympic Sports Park Gymnasium, the competition has already begun its warm-up.
Both teams have arrived at the venue ahead of time, and the EDG players are currently in their private rest room making final pre-match preparations.
Lin Mo felt the air in the lounge was a bit stuffy, so he pushed open the door to go out into the corridor for some fresh air and to the restroom.
Just as I reached the corner, a tall figure walked towards me.
He recognized her as Rita at a glance.
Lin Mo knew that Rita would be the commentator today, partnering with the duo of Wawa and Miller.
"Sister Tako!"
Lin Mo stopped and waved to greet him.
Upon hearing the sound, Rita's eyes lit up, and she quickly walked over.
Rita had clearly dressed up carefully, wearing a black off-the-shoulder dress with the hemline stopping just above mid-thigh, perfectly outlining her long, straight, and fair legs.
She wore a pair of silver stilettos, which made a crisp "clack-clack" sound as she walked.
With her exquisite makeup and long, slightly wavy hair, she exudes a professional yet sexy and charming aura.
She walked closer, looked Lin Mo up and down, a half-smile playing on her lips. She took two steps closer in her high heels, and a delicate fragrance wafted over.
"What a coincidence," she said.
"Yes, Sister Ta, you look beautiful today," Lin Mo praised sincerely.
Rita smiled, about to offer a modest reply, but then seemed to remember something. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she stared into Lin Mo's eyes: "Then tell me, Brother Mo, am I prettier today, or is your widowed sister Yu prettier?"
Lin Mo: ...
When did Sister Ta become a hermaphrodite...?
He coughed twice, and without changing his expression, gave the standard answer: "Of course they're all beautiful! Spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums each have their own merits, and they're all the most beautiful faces in the LPL."
Hearing this perfectly tactful and smooth answer, Rita rolled her eyes in annoyance and remarked, "No wonder they say you're afraid of cultured scumbags."
Although she was cursing the scumbag, the resentment in Rita's eyes had dissipated considerably. She straightened her skirt and casually asked, "The match is about to start, are you starting today?"
Lin Mo shrugged: "No, it's Guang Ge's starting day, I'll stay down here and guard my water cooler."
"That's true, WE's style is very solid, and A-Guang's playstyle is more stable." Rita nodded, then raised her pink fist, "But you should be ready at any time. If you go on stage, don't embarrass our 'Spirit Valley Double Swallows'! If EDG wins, I'll give you a surprise."
"What surprise?" Lin Mo asked, intrigued.
"Let's talk after you win," Rita rolled her eyes at Lin Mo. "I'm going to the commentary booth now. Good luck!"
"You too, keep it up!"
The two exchanged a few words and then turned and left.
Lin Mo was still wondering what the surprise Rita had mentioned would be.
As for whether we can win?
Lin Mo hadn't worried about this issue at all, unless Abu pinned him to the water dispenser...
……
Time quickly passed and it was exactly five o'clock in the afternoon.
This means the match has officially begun.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a deep heartbeat sound that echoed throughout the venue, all the lights in the stadium suddenly went out!
The tens of thousands of spectators inside the venue immediately erupted in screams, creating quite a lively atmosphere.
On the large screen in the center of the stage, the opening CG of the World Championship Finals, meticulously produced by Riot Games, began to play, and the rousing battle anthem instantly ignited everyone's adrenaline!
The moment the CG image froze on the Summoner's Cup, a dazzling spotlight on the stage shone directly onto the center of the venue!
A melodious female voice resonated throughout the stadium via microphone:
"The flames of war have reignited beneath the walls of Nanjing! Welcome everyone to the 2017 League of Legends Pro League Spring Split Finals!"
Under the spotlight, LPL's star player, Yu Shuang, walked out gracefully, microphone in hand.
Today, she wore a blue and white porcelain cheongsam that exuded oriental charm, perfectly outlining her slender figure and showcasing her outstanding dignified and elegant temperament.
"Today, the two teams standing here are, one of them, the red miracle that has rebuilt its former glory—WE!"
"The other team is the Black and White Dynasty, determined to defend its throne—EDG!"
"Let's welcome our two teams to the stage!"
Amidst Yu Shuang's impassioned introduction, the contestants from both teams slowly emerged from the passageways on either side of the stage.
Under the flashing spotlight, they walked to the center of the stage.
Lin Mo stood on the edge of the EDG team. Although A Guang was the starting player today, he could still feel the exciting atmosphere at the scene.
"Before the real battle begins, let's hear what the contestants have to say to each other!"
As soon as Yu Shuang finished speaking, the large screen on the stage suddenly lit up.
The classic pre-match trash talk segment of the LPL finals is about to begin.
The scene begins with WE's jungler Condi's defiant face.
He said to the camera, "I heard that Clearlove is the jungle overlord of the LPL? But I think that in the dragon pit, who is the laborer depends on how accurately you press Smite. Today, I don't mind letting him relive the fear of having his Baron stolen."
The scene shifts, and the factory manager stands with his arms crossed, his eyes gleaming arrogantly: "Steal the dragon? You'd better be alive to even get into the dragon pit. Today I'll show him that I'll farm his jungle!"
A burst of cheers and laughter immediately erupted from the crowd.
Immediately afterwards, the camera focused on the mid and bottom lanes, where WE's Xiye and Mystic were making bold statements to Scout and Zet, brimming with confidence.
Finally, the trash-talking segment focused on the top lane.
WE's top laner 957 appeared calm and composed in front of the camera, but his words exuded absolute confidence:
"EDG's top laner, A-Guang, has always been very stable, but I will be even more stable than him, and I can also carry. As for Mo, who has been very popular recently and is called 'the god of chaos'... it will be even easier to beat him."
Upon hearing this, WE fans at the scene cheered wildly, shouting "Leg Bro is awesome!"
On the big screen, the scene changed, and Ah-Guang's iconic smiling face reappeared.
Ah Guang scratched his head: "Leg Bro is indeed very strong, and his hero pool is deep. But I will withstand the pressure. As long as I don't collapse under the tower, I will have succeeded."
This perfectly reflects A-Guang's down-to-earth remarks as a blue-collar top laner.
However, the video did not end there.
The screen flashed again, revealing Lin Mo's handsome face.
