Chapter 49: Three Cracks Shatter the Esports Spirit, Sir, I'm a Scholar.
Yes, during the live stream, even though Fu Shiyan was giving instructions to his teammates and analyzing the lineup for the audience in a very logical way.
The LPL's god-like management and team leaders still haven't been able to associate them with coaching ability.
This can be attributed to ingrained thinking.
Or perhaps it's the distorted environment of the LPL region, where there's a severe lack of emphasis on training and competition, that subtly influences everyone's judgment.
With a top-tier talent in front of you, who would associate him with a "team accessory" who only orders takeout, guards the water cooler, and always stands on the far side in team photos?
Furthermore, compared to his vague and ambiguous leadership skills, LPL teams are more focused on Crush's value as a player—his laning ability, his mechanics, his champion pool, and his consistently dominant performances in high-elo ranked games.
Of course, this was partly due to Fu Shiyan's own deliberate decision to showcase his skills on the competition stage.
After all, the target he wanted to attract was never any LPL team.
But rather, it's someone who can afford to spend money, is willing to spend money, and genuinely loves esports.
Sugar daddy.
Sigh... the more I talk about this, the more I sound like someone I know?
Okay, let's get back to the main topic.
Previously, during ranked games and live streams, no one noticed, which was understandable. But now, on the stage of the City Championship, a newly formed team like BJBS has delivered such an exaggerated performance, forcing everyone to re-evaluate their situation.
In particular, Huya was broadcasting a short video of the entire process of Crush “training BJBS” in real time.
The level of competition jumped from difficult to hellish.
How could they not scream when you call them?
……
"Tsk, did we go too far?"
After killing Nar, Li Rui turned his head to look at Wu Chen with a smug look on his face.
"Heavy?" Wu Chen raised an eyebrow, his tone carrying the composure of someone with experience. "Not heavy at all. It's good to let them experience the intensity we've experienced. If it can win back a few overconfident young comrades with e-sports dreams, that's our achievement too."
"That's what you're saying," Zhu Dan joked in the voice chat, "Without Brother Yan, it seems like you're no different from them."
"No, there is still a difference." Zhou Heyang honestly added, "Before he met Brother Yan, his skill level wasn't even as high as others."
"Hahaha!"
The team was laughing together in the voice chat, their laughter carrying the exuberance and relaxation unique to young people.
"Alright, get your spirits up. I said we'd go all out in the first battle, so go all out and don't give them any chances."
Fu Shiyan interrupted everyone's chatter, saying that so far, it was just a matter of dealing with ganks and countering lane pressure. Even with the training records released by Huya, it was far from enough. If he wanted to attract a truly wealthy patron, he needed to demonstrate more.
MC was just the first victim in this process.
Five minutes later, both sides entered a new round of decision-making regarding the collision.
On the blue side, BJBS, Alistar continued to closely follow Nidalee, ganking the red side's jungler Gragas in the upper jungle while covering Hecarim to finish off the minions under the tower.
As for Zhou Heyang in the bottom lane, Lucian has an extra dash compared to Kog'Maw, making him more agile. Braum and Gnar are not yet level six, so they pose no threat to him, and he is left to his own devices.
"Wow, I died once in the top and once in the middle, so why is it that I, the Gragas Bro, am the one who can't play anymore?"
"MC jungler wants to call the police."
"There's nothing we can do. Braum went to the bottom lane to help Gnar clear the wave. In the top lane, there's only Kog'Maw who can barely protect himself, and Lulu has to face Viktor who got first blood. She'll be lucky if she can stay alive. Gragas is all alone and can only run when invaded."
Xiaoxiao and Xika each spoke a sentence, revealing the awkward situation that the MC jungler was in at this moment.
However, just when everyone thought the pressure had reached its limit, BJBS once again refreshed people's understanding of the "intensity of semi-professional team competitions".
In the mid lane, just as the minion wave crossed the dividing line, Alistar immediately appeared in the field of vision.
Startled, Lulu pressed EW twice and immediately turned and ran away.
Later, when your support also came to the mid lane to protect your teammates' development, Alistar had already appeared in the bottom lane and was chasing Gnar.
The pace of the two sides is completely on different levels!
The command was terrible; MC was completely being led by the nose.
The gap in the mid lane is too big; Lulu is down by more than half her CS.
[There was nothing I could do. My individual skills were already inferior, and then BJBS subjected me to all sorts of military training. If I had gone up there, I don't know how many times I would have died.]
In this extremely oppressive atmosphere, MC finally got the chance to regain control of the minion wave.
Although the cost is a collapse from top to bottom, with the finishing blow and a comprehensive economic stagnation.
However, before they could even anticipate the performance of this big mouth, they were left speechless.
The top laner, the core of the team, suffered another heavy blow.
Following Fu Shiyan's reminder that it was okay to tower dive, Old Niu activated his ultimate, rushed out from the bush behind the tower, and used WQ combo to launch Little Gnar into the air. With the help of Nidalee and Hecarim's damage, they instantly took him down.
The headcount ratio has increased to three to zero.
The economic gap between the red and blue teams has reached 2,700 yuan.
One minute later.
The system kill announcement flashed again.
BJBS-DRXJ has killed MC-Silent!
Nar died for the third time.
Inside the red formation.
Looking at the black and white screen in front of him, Lin Mo's face turned pale, and his breathing became heavy and labored.
"Um... Lao Lin, calm down first."
"BJBS knows you are our core member, and they are all targeting you."
"It's okay, I'll ward for you later. Kog'Maw is farming well, we can still fight!"
The teammates' attempts to comfort him did little to alleviate Lin Mo's stress.
The young man's gaze fell on the mid lane, where the three-handed player, who hadn't managed a solo kill but had been constantly using QE to whittle down his own Lulu's health, was now facing a situation where he hadn't used any of his abilities.
He understood that everything was now being orchestrated by this person.
anger?
sad?
neither.
For the first time, Lin Mo found his once-proud talent somewhat amusing.
three times!
Three consecutive ganks that caught him off guard made him realize...
In the face of true geniuses, he was just an ordinary person.
The gap between two top-tier players can sometimes be greater than the gap between a top-tier player and a bronze-tier player.
……
The first game ended faster than anyone expected.
MC didn't even get to see the two-piece set for Kog'Maw.
After Gnar's third death, the top lane turret was easily destroyed by Hecarim.
When the resurrected Gnar chose to take over the top lane minions, Hecarim, who had just acquired Trinity Force, had already teleported and launched an attack on the bottom lane duo with the mid and jungle who had been waiting for a long time.
Double kill!
Kill people, take towers, control dragons.
The opening match of the 9th City Championship did not feature the first solo performance by a Chinese player that everyone wanted to see.
All that exists is a team bearing the BJBS prefix, which, at a terrifying pace, slowly and steadily erodes the enemy's strength.
The game lasts for eighteen minutes!
The ratio of people to heads is 13:1!
The red crystal collapsed with a crash.
