Chapter 18: After winning the first game, Leng Shao asks: Who is the mid laner?
"We can't give in any more!" AJ said.
If the high ground defense towers are gone, then this game can basically be declared over.
Moreover, the Rift Herald hasn't disappeared yet; if it keeps ramming, even the inhibitor turrets will be destroyed.
Once the tusks are removed, the nature of the game changes.
"Let's start a group purchase!"
AJ made a decisive move, and the next moment, all five members of IM moved in unison.
Taliyah unleashes her ultimate, Fiora launches an unstoppable attack on Jhin, Thresh flashes forward, and Kha'Zix hides, searching for an opening...
Almost instantly, the screen was filled with various skills.
"IM isn't going to give up so easily; they're going to make a proactive attempt!" Miller said. "Unfortunately, OMG's economic lead is no joke."
As you can see, Maokai and Lee Sin are already in front, with Maokai activating his ultimate ability immediately.
"OMG's counter-attack has begun, Maokai has used his ultimate!" Changmao commented, "All three members of the IM team have been controlled."
"Jhin has been dealing damage from behind, Zyra has pulled ahead!"
Within the game, Master Chu kept a close eye on the opponent's movements, waiting for an opportunity.
When he saw that the three members of IM were controlled by the tree, he knew that his opportunity had come.
Almost instantly, his skills were unleashed in turn.
A vine unleashed beneath his feet, spreading across Taliyah, Kha'Zix, and Thresh.
The tree's ultimate skill had just ended when the three of them were controlled again.
"Kill Zyra! Kill Zyra!"
Road's voice stands out in IM's team voice chat.
The sound seemed to possess a magical power, attracting everyone's attention. The policewoman and Taliyah instinctively focused their attacks on Zyra.
At the same time, Zyra's ultimate ability took effect.
Amidst this sea of flowers and vines, all four members of IM were knocked away.
"Zyra made her move! Her ultimate knocked four people away!" Miller in the stands was incredibly excited.
Miller's passion ignited the audience, eliciting cheers from below.
At this moment, Zyra's damage output was at its maximum, and the flowers in her berserk state continuously spewed out poisonous thorns.
However, under the combined fire of the IM team, Zyra was instantly melted.
But the rest of OMG were no pushovers. Jhin, like a ghost on the battlefield, reaped kills alongside his teammates.
Thresh fell first, followed by Caitlyn and Taliyah.
As expected, with Fiora's death, OMG achieved a team wipe.
"Nice! That team fight was brilliant, a one-for-five wipeout of IM!" Miller's commentary became even more excited: "Zyra is still dead, but her death was worthwhile."
"It's over, the outcome of the match is no longer in doubt!" Long Hair chimed in.
As expected, with all of IM's players eliminated, their last chance to defend was lost.
OMG's players kept attacking the tower, and IM's crystal eventually exploded.
The image freezes on the moment the base explodes.
At this moment, everyone reacted differently.
The commentators exclaimed excitedly, "Let's take it! OMG has secured the first game of this best-of-three series!"
Congratulations, OMG!
The chat was flooded with messages about the OMG team, and Chushen's ID kept popping up.
Backstage, Li Chuan stood up in surprise.
"You won, you won a game?"
At this moment, Mingzhe and the coaching staff realized what was happening and found it unbelievable.
This battle has ended in such a way.
Although they were reluctant to admit it, they all knew that the key to this game was the substitute player they didn't have high hopes for.
In contrast, backstage at IM, the coaching staff members kept shaking their heads, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
They didn't expect that OMG, after two consecutive losses, would take the first game.
The support player, in particular, became the key player in the entire match.
"Have fun!"
Within the team, even the usually silent Sima Laozei took the initiative to communicate with Master Chu and raised his fist.
Master Chu understood immediately and took the initiative to bump fists with the old scoundrel Sima.
Leng Shao was incredibly excited: "Brothers, keep it up! This is so awesome!"
This was his first victory as the mid laner for OMG. Although he wasn't the key to the win, it was still something to celebrate.
Xiao Liu and Xi Yang didn't say anything, but they couldn't stop smiling.
IM is currently recognized as a strong team. Winning against IM, even by just one game, raises the team's morale by more than one level.
Moreover, they also knew that the key to this victory or defeat lay with Chu Shi's Zyra.
This situation was in stark contrast to the beginning, when everyone felt that the match was likely to end in defeat when Chu Shi took the field.
But now, the outcome is exactly the opposite.
From the early laning phase to the later command and decision-making, Chu Shi has achieved a level of convincing in this match.
Return to the lounge.
Li Chuan was standing at the door, a forced smile on his face.
"You played very well!" Li Chuan patted Chu Shi on the shoulder.
Although he initially wanted Chu Shi to take the blame, now that they've won this round, the one who took the blame will become their hidden trump card.
As for the idea of switching back to another support player in the next game, he had already rejected it immediately.
If someone else speaks, the online gossip-loving public will definitely not let their club off the hook.
In other words, changing the support player now would be the most foolish decision.
Since we can win, let Master Chu continue playing.
If they win the next game, it will be a win-win situation for everyone—for the club, for him, and for Chu Shi himself.
If you lose, changing your team is also a viable option.
"Zyra made some plays, the coach misunderstood you!" Mingzhe remarked from the side.
Now, even if he's unwilling to admit it, he knows he made a mistake in the selection process.
Chu Shi's skill level far surpassed that of ordinary players, and his use of Zyra was even more unexpected.
However, he still couldn't understand why Master Chu had such a high level of hero proficiency.
How does someone who hardly trains at the training base and spends all their time watching cooking videos maintain such a high level of skill?
He reasonably suspected that Master Chu was practicing alone in some unknown corner.
Only in this way can everything be explained.
He was completely unaware that his opinion of Master Chu had quietly changed.
After the manager and coach praised him, the other teammates also started talking, praising him endlessly.
In this match, Chu Shi truly carried the entire team.
Just then, Xiao Wu's exclamation came.
"Jera's stats!" Xiao Wu gasped.
As the original starting support player, he was very clear about what the data he saw meant.
Everyone followed Xiao Wu's gaze, and their faces were filled with shock.
The screen displayed the data settlement panel for both teams.
Among the ten players, Zyra's damage output was extremely conspicuous, even surpassing Jhin's by a significant margin.
"With this damage, who exactly is the mid laner?" Leng Shao muttered to himself.
The team fell silent instantly, all agreeing that Leng Shao was right.
Who is the mid laner?
Now it seems that Lulu is more like a support, while Zyra is the mid laner!
