Chapter 170 Heeding Fang Shen's words will only lead to regret.
Watching IG's "championship five" take the stage, Fang Han breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down in his seat.
He didn't care who won or lost this round.
Anyway, RNG is going to win the second game, so it's inevitable that they'll take the victory.
But if IG can defy fate and win the first game, their chances will be even more secure.
"Fang Shen, are you nervous?"
As soon as Fang Han sat down, Letme, who was sitting next to him, came over with a big smile on his face.
The person standing to the side was a step too slow and failed to grab a seat next to Fang Han, so they had to settle for sitting in the seat behind Fang Han to watch the game.
Karsa and Mlxg sat on the other side of Fang Han, and the two junglers immediately started giving pointers.
Ning Wang, right? Since Fang Shen usually speaks so highly of you, let's take this opportunity to "learn from him".
Fang Han himself still has a good impression of those champion athletes from his previous life.
Regardless of what these players became later, they at least brought glory to the LPL.
As a professional player, Fang Han would naturally talk a bit more about these champion players, both on and off the field.
But Mlxg and Karsa were unaware of the hidden story. They just felt uncomfortable hearing Fang Han talk about other teams' junglers every day.
Simply put, they were jealous...
Especially Mlxg, as the champion jungler of S7, he doesn't think he's any worse than any other jungler!
Therefore, he strongly requested to play in this intercontinental tournament in order to prove his strength.
Even if he hasn't played a match for a while, he is confident that he can control the rhythm of the whole game when he takes the stage!
"So, Xiangguo, are you really planning to go on stage?"
"Our second match is against SKT."
Karsa put her arm around Mlxg's shoulder and asked with a half-smile.
Mlxg crossed his arms and let out a disdainful sneer.
"So what if SKT? It's not like they haven't won before."
"I'd love to play against them again, and it would be even more satisfying if I could beat them to win the championship!"
Whether in his past life or this one, Mlxg is always that fearless brute.
So what if SKT? If they can win once, they can win a second and a third time!
Karsa understood Mlxg's determination and said no more.
Perfect timing, I've been busy for half a year, it's time for me to take a break.
Moreover, it seems that professional players all over the world have forgotten that RNG has never had just one jungle king!
Now that the lineup had been decided, the RNG players stopped worrying and focused all their attention on the first match broadcast live on the big screen.
The match between IG and KT can be considered a close contest.
The clash between the two top laners, TheShy vs. Semb, is particularly anticipated.
It's clear that IG's head coach, Jin Zhu, took Fang Han's advice to heart, and from the very beginning, he selected Aatrox for Rookie to use.
The situation was different from what Fang Han had expected, but at least he got a strong character in the current version, which was already good enough.
Ultimately, the lineups on both sides were almost identical to those in the previous battle, except that the mid-lane heroes of both sides were swapped.
KT picked Irelia for mid lane, while IG opted for Aatrox.
However, Fang Han played IG's mid-lane Aatrox in this game.
As everyone knows, you can always trust Song Yijin unless he's standing against a wall or using the guise of a warrior hero...
In the previous version of the mid-lane warrior meta, Rookie's performance could only be described as "disastrous".
Coughing blood crocodile, coughing blood Lee Sin, Rookie can't play any of them.
Although in this version of the Intercontinental Cup, the newly reworked Aatrox has maxed out his stats and overpowered mechanics.
But Fang Han still chose to question it first.
The champion Aatrox still depends on the user ID.
I hope I'm overthinking it...
Fang Han took a sip of the iced tea he carried with him and calmed down to enjoy the game as a spectator.
The result was exactly as Fang Han had predicted.
IG's top and jungle players are still as stubborn as ever, insisting on fighting in the top lane, but they were completely overwhelmed by Mata's support Shen.
Rookie's Aatrox in the mid lane didn't perform well either; he couldn't hit anything with his sword in team fights, which made Zz1tai very anxious.
"Song Yijin, what the hell are you doing? Do you even know how to play Sword Demon?"
Sure enough, as soon as the IG players returned to the rest room, Zz1tai rushed up to them and questioned Rookie.
Rookie was already feeling guilty about losing the game, and when Zz1tai asked him that question, he immediately gave a wry smile.
"Wow, my brother, I never expected this hero to be so strong after the rework."
"Ignoring minion waves and using skills to sustain, two dashes, and the ultimate also includes resurrection..."
Rookie felt only relief that they were lucky to have gotten such a champion; if the opposing team had gotten it after practicing it beforehand, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Rookie admitted that he couldn't gain an advantage against Aatrox with Irelia.
IG's Ueno and Jungler sat in the corner like children who had done something wrong, keeping their heads down and not saying a word.
As for Ah Shui and Bao Lan, their minds were already filled with the laser beams from the opposing team's big eyes.
The unreasonable harm left both of them feeling numb and disoriented.
Coach Kim was also somewhat disappointed, but he still tried to comfort his players.
"It's okay, you played very well, don't worry about it."
"We still have to listen to what Fang Shen has to say."
Coach Kim hit the nail on the head with one sentence.
indeed so.
If IG's top and jungle players had thought more carefully and considered Fang Han's well-intentioned reminders before the match, they might have had a better chance of winning this game.
But this is esports; there are no "what ifs."
Fang Han finished the entire bottle of iced tea in his hand and, as usual, tapped his head with the empty bottle.
Don't ask, it's just a program written in your soul.
Fang Han casually tossed the empty bottle into the trash can and stood up to straighten his team uniform.
"It's okay, just pretend nothing happened in the first game, we'll be back to square one soon."
mad!
Or rather, absolute confidence!
Fang Han is always like this; he can stir up the emotions of the entire lounge with just a few words.
As long as he's there, the atmosphere in the lounge is never bad!
"Tiger, how about you show Chicken a mid-lane Aatrox game?"
"Don't worry, I'll listen to you, Fang Shen. I've been practicing the Sword Demon technique, just waiting for today."
"That's right, let's go, let's give SKT a little team fight shock!"
Since the team is to be built around the mid laner Aatrox, then it's natural to use traditional teamfight compositions.
Just in time, Fang Han has also prepared a new hero for SKT!
Thinking of this, Fang Han, standing in the exit passage, smiled.
SKT's top, mid, and jungle players, just wait, you'll have your turn to enjoy yourselves later.
……
the other side.
Inside the LCK lounge.
Despite winning the first game and taking the lead, there was no joy or relaxation on the faces of the people in the rest room.
So far, Arthur has a 100% win rate against teams in their region...
Previously, no top laner had ever been able to gain an advantage in the laning phase against Arthur.
"Hey! I have an idea!"
Just before going on stage, KkOma suddenly stood up, his eyes shining.
