LOL: I told you to eat something, not to cook!

Chapter 19: Thresh is picked again in the Road: Without Zyra, I will crush the opponent!

The commentary booth.

Miller and Longhair also paid attention to the data panel.

"What kind of stats are these for Zyra?" Miller's eyes widened. "Thresh's stats are just over a thousand. There's no harm in comparison."

"That's right, Chushchen is probably the MVP of this round!" Long Hair chimed in.

As soon as he finished speaking, the image on the screen changed, and Chu Shi's official portrait appeared.

MVP -- Chushen!

The rousing music and the handsome promotional photos were merely icing on the cake.

At this moment, what truly attracts attention is Zyra's terrifying 35% percentage on her stats panel.

Secondly, Zyra's teamfight participation rate and gold advantage over her lane opponent far exceeded those of the opposing support.

"If you covered up Zyra's ID, who would guess she's a support?" Miller exclaimed. "MVP is well-deserved!"

"Yes!" Long Hair stared at the screen: "Zyra has performed to the fullest extent that a support can do in this game. This game was a complete stomp of the lane, and it could even be considered a Zyra solo show."

As viewers watched the data on the screen and listened to the commentators' analysis, the chat in the live stream began to erupt in excitement.

"This substitute is so good, why wasn't he brought on sooner?"

"Road's Thresh was completely dumbfounded; he didn't manage to hook Zyra even once the entire game, all of his hooks were blocked."

"Just arrived, what happened? How did OMG win a game?"

Inside the live stream, some viewers who had already left the stream were just entering, looking at OMG, who had won a game, with puzzled expressions.

Thanks to the helpful comments, they finally realized what had just happened, and felt sorry for IM's support player, Road.

"What do you think Thresh is feeling right now?"

.....

IM back-end lounge.

The entire lounge was unusually silent, and Road was slumped in his chair.

In the previous game, he was completely outmatched by the opposing support.

The opposing support player was just a substitute, and this crushing defeat was hard for him to accept.

IM's coach had sharp eyes, his gaze constantly shifting between Jinjiao and Road.

"You were targeted in the last game, hopefully you can make a difference in the next game," IM's coach said cautiously, his eyes already glued to the bottom lane duo.

In professional matches, losing the laning phase is not something that should happen.

But given the current situation, he can't be too harsh on the bot lane duo.

We should wait until the match is over to discuss anything; saying it now will only affect our performance in the next game.

The two IM bot lane duo knew they were in the wrong and that the coach was talking about them, so they both nodded.

"Don't worry, Coach, I'll definitely find a way to win the next round!" Road said unwillingly.

He was naturally extremely unwilling to accept the loss in the previous game.

In his opinion, the loss in the previous game was because he underestimated the opponent and also because of the hero's counter.

If Zyra hadn't countered his Thresh, his performance definitely wouldn't have been this bad.

Coach IM gave Road a deep look, his heart filled with a thousand words, but in the end, they turned into encouragement.

"Although we lost this game, it was mainly due to the draft phase. Our strength is still greater than theirs."

"As long as we pay attention during the draft phase, don't rush, and don't underestimate our opponents, I believe we can win the next game."

Upon hearing this, everyone in IM regained their fighting spirit and expressed their opinions.

They admitted they had underestimated their opponent and that if they took the situation seriously, they could definitely turn things around.

After a motivational speech, the IM team headed to the arena, and the second game between OMG and IM officially began.

The commentary booth.

As the players entered the arena, Miller and Longhair began their commentary.

"Welcome everyone to the second game of the OMG vs. IM match. I'm Miller, your commentator for this game!"

"I'm long-haired!"

After a brief self-introduction, the two began to review what had happened before.

"The current score is 1-0, with OMG taking the first game," Miller said. "If they win one more game, OMG can end their two-game losing streak and secure their first victory of the season."

"Yes!" Long Hair said, "Now it depends on whether OMG can stabilize their situation and take this game."

"Judging from the players entering the field, OMG has not made any personnel changes, and Chushen is still the substitute."

"Chushen played exceptionally well, and his hero was quite unique. Let's see how he performed in this game."

As soon as the words were spoken, the ban/pick phase officially began.

"BP has started!"

Miller steered the commentary back on track, beginning his analysis of the draft phase: "OMG is still on the blue side this time. What changes will they make to their draft this time?"

"Zyra played exceptionally well in the last game. Will IM target Chu Shen?" Long Hair chimed in.

Everyone was glued to the screen, eagerly anticipating the hero selection for the game.

Immediately afterwards, the buy/sell (BP) phase between the two sides began.

OMGban: Fiora, Janna, Galio.

IMban: Zyra, Lee Sin, Maokai.

The ban phase for both sides was quite standard, consisting mainly of strong heroes in the current version.

The only noteworthy thing is that IM banned a Zyra.

"Zyra has been banned!" Miller smiled slightly, then said, "It seems IM still cares a lot about Chushen, directly banning Zyra."

Next, both sides began selecting their heroes.

OMG, they snatched the Prince!

Without Lee Sin, Jarvan IV's priority in the jungle increases.

IM's choice is to lock in Sejuani and Crystal Maiden; it's a standard pick with no issues.

"Sejuani?" Miller asked. "Is IM deliberately seeking change? They're picking champions that are strong in lane and aggressive?"

During Miller's analysis, OMG countered by picking Titan and Tristana.

"Titan?" Longhair asked with a suspicious look. "Titan is a champion that can be played as a support or a top laner, but there's absolutely no need to pick him as your first pick."

"If we pick it first now, it's most likely to be a support Titan, with the counter pick going to the mid or top lane."

As Changmao guessed, IM had already chosen their third hero: Cho'Gath.

The first round of ban/pick (BP) concluded smoothly, and the second round of BP officially began.

IM banned Lulu and Karma, while OMG banned Gragas and Cassiopeia.

OMG locked in Taliyah the moment the hero was banned.

"What do you need?"

On the IM players' stage, the coach focused his attention on the bottom lane duo.

In order to allow the bot lane duo to perform better, he deliberately let the bot lane pick be picked later, so as to better target OMG's bot lane duo.

Now, the opposing bot lane duo has both chosen their champions, and it's time for them to pick their heroes.

"Thresh again, this time I'm going to crush them!" Road said viciously.

The defeat in the previous game was still fresh in his mind, and he was now eager to prove his strength.

Now that the annoying Zyra has been banned, the opposing bot lane has revealed their strategy, and Thresh is naturally the best choice.

With a strong AD carry, he was confident they could crush OMG!
