"To secure first place in Group C, G2 decisively played their first trump card!"

"Leopard Woman Jungle, long time no see!"

The passionate live commentary echoed throughout the Wuhan Centre Sports Arena, infecting the audience and creating an unusually fiery atmosphere.

G2 is commonly referred to as the "LPL Fourth Seed" domestically, naturally enjoying high popularity; surprisingly, there were also many SSG fans present at the venue.

During the map loading phase, supporters from both sides took turns shouting cheers, and surprisingly, the SSG supporters' voices were not inferior to those of G2's side.

Not far from the competition venue, all VG players gathered in the room where Liang Yan and Fu Lan Duo resided in the training hotel; the two coaches wanted to come over to watch the lively scene, but were pulled away by Gao Jun—players bonding emotionally, what are you butting in for?

The room wasn't small but wasn't large either; eight people squeezed in, lying or sitting on the sofa or bed, intently staring at the large TV on the wall capable of connecting to the internet live stream.

"Nervous, brother?" Gangzi quietly asked Zeize tai.

Zeize tai immediately nodded.

Sima Laozei glanced at the two, puzzled: "Why nervous? It's not like we're the ones playing."

"We have a 30% chance of drawing them in the quarterfinals draw." Gangzi explained.

Whether G2 wins or SSG wins, one will always advance to the quarterfinals draw second pool, while VG's first pool, excluding MSF from the same group advancing, has roughly a 30% chance of drawing any remaining second-pool team. Sima Laozei understood Gangzi and Zeize tai's meaning, but still felt there was nothing to be nervous about—no matter who gets drawn, just fight and it's over.

Fu Lan Duo lay on the bed, her chin bumping against the sofa backrest beside Gangzi's head, smiling and asking: "Which of these two pairs do you want to face?"

"I want to face RNG." Gangzi said without hesitation, hehe-laughing twice.

Fu Lan Duo rolled her eyes: "You're cursing their group second place, is this okay, brother?"

Xiao Duan actually echoed, nodding like a chick pecking rice: "Exactly! Who would want to fight G2 three stars in a civil war? Winning easily isn't better?"

"Exactly, anyway RNG won't make it past the quarterfinals."

"Damn, Fanzi Ge, your words are problematic—if spread, you'll get beaten to death!"

"Whoever spreads it, if it truly spreads, I'll be the first to beat you to death!"

"Damn it!"

Substitute Gao Tianliang sat at the back, listening until stunned silence, thinking "I crap, is this the realm of the big shots? Is this something I can hear!"

Really couldn't hold back, Xiao Ti Didi timidly asked: "If we could choose, then…… why couldn't it be CNB?"

Gangzi & Xiao Duan exchanged a glance: "Er……"

"Saying 'master beating disciple' out loud doesn't sound good." Liang Yan lightly laughed and said.

Easyhoon couldn't help but laugh, saying: "Everyone wants a civil war? That's not good, brothers."

Gangzi turned and glanced at Easyhoon: "You don't want to?"

Easyhoon: "I want to!"

As everyone knows, Easyhoon is an honest person.

……

Battle began.

Both sides' first-level team fight strength had some disparity; theoretically G2 had some advantage, but the opening remained normal defensive positioning, and they didn't even bother to invade vision.

The bottom lane duo used their respective side bushes as positions, pulled a wave of hair, but neither got angry, merely testing by throwing a skill combo before pulling apart.

The base began spawning minions, and both sides only then truly showed action.

Expecting Jesse's skill to probe the path, confirming the triangular grass was empty, he resolutely carried the Hextech cannon up the slope, passed through grass patches into SSG's jungle, pressed against the wall behind the Dragon Pit, feeling his way, finally planting a fake eye at the front of the red buff camp grass patch, revealing Ambition's Zhu Mei clearing jungle and CuVee's Nal assisting in jungle clearing.

Opening detected, Ambition calmly ate the red buff, then horizontally crossed the jungle, didn't even eat F6, directly came to the lower jungle, cleared the three wolves blue buff to reach level three, then rushed straight to the bottom lane.

"G2 has vision at the river mouth but none in the triangular grass! An Zongmen came with a classic vision bypass, wall-came from the small dragon pit!"

"Ah, but G2 has no lane control, so this wave probably can't catch anyone!"

"Not necessarily! As long as the minion wave hasn't arrived, G2's duo's position hasn't exceeded this wall this line, Zhu Mei wall-coming can still catch people!"

Guan Zeyuan wasn't wrong—SSG's duo, with double long range having lane advantage, quickly seized G2's side bushes; Leopard Woman dove headfirst into the grass patch, applying pressure through positioning, forcing G2's duo to not dare stay and instead move toward the river.

At the moment G2's duo was pressed against the wall, Zhu Mei from the triangular grass wall-charged over, using Boar Rush to send Zven's Kog'Maw, who was wall-hugging, flying.

SSG support GorillA rushed forward, directly applied Exhaust, and simultaneously attached the Dog Leash, coordinating with Ambition and Ruler for a wave of focused fire, taking down Zven's Kog'Maw for about half his health.

Fortunately, Mithy was calm enough; a Savage Charge pushed GorillA away, preventing Leopard Woman's Dog Leash from fully latching on.

Zven landed, activated Heal Boost to pull away.

SSG jungle pursued and attacked.

Zven, with around 200 health, fled back under the tower; Ruler followed up with a flash and cast Spectral Arrow Rain.

"Oh what a pity! Ruler miscalculated! Damage was a bit lacking!"

Oh My God!

Ruler could no longer keep up with basic attacks to finish, could only watch helplessly as the barely-healthy Kog'Maw pulled away, so angry he couldn't help but curse once.

"Stay calm, it's fine." Captain elder brother Ambition calmly advised, simultaneously reminding teammates not to let emotions flare.

Ruler took a hit from the defensive tower, silently pulled back, continued clearing the lane.

Zven hid behind the tower, took medicine, wiped his forehead, already sweating coldly. But also had no time to take out a handkerchief to wipe, casually wiped on his uniform twice, then resumed mouse control.

Mithy was fine; SSG trio had clear objectives, all firepower focused on Zven, Mithy only slightly affected by splash, condition still quite healthy.

"Huh?" Rita voiced confusion: "If SSG didn't secure a kill this way, then Ruler used an extra flash, G2 seemed to have gained?"

"Can't really say it was a gain." Guan Zeyuan said: "Zven was ultimately crippled, lane disadvantage significant, after finishing health potions feeling only barely at half health, already lost the ability to trade blows with the three-star duo, Noxus' strong initiation had no room to play, future lane would only be silently taking hits. If you keep eating tower line, last hits will definitely be missed, defensive tower health will also bear great pressure. Once your defensive tower health is pressed to a certain boundary line, An Bixin comes again in a wave, first blood tower is secured."

"Alright......"

Rita couldn't help but mutter in her heart, analysis logic is flawless, but you've already predicted to the nth step—could this match be voice-controlled by you?
