Chapter 189: True Solo King!

~20 min read 3,961 words

December 10, 2022, All-Star Weekend Annual Festival.

Generally, there is a relatively long off-season from the end of the World Championship to the start of the new season.

And during this time, the most concerned is the "All-Star Weekend" held by various regions together.

This event has been well received since its birth in the ancient times, and has given birth to classic famous scenes such as "One Cannon Four PDD," "Nine Blind Monks Kicking a Ball," "Four-line Record 3/9/6," "Level 4 Pantheon Squatting Level 6 Mantis Hitting a Fruit," etc.

Unfortunately, since 2020, due to special reasons, the "foreign region" exchange has been cancelled, and it has become each region holding its own.

The schedule has shrunk to only the key solo tournament and three BO1s that are like passing scenes.

Hosts Liu Hang and Yu Shuang, who have been busy for nearly half an hour, stood at the end of the red carpet and began to call out the players who appeared as the finale and the main axis today.

"Now coming toward us is the top-mid duo of last year's defending champion, Ye and Flandre!"

The lens shifted to the end of the red carpet, and Ye Bo and Li Xuanjun walked together.

Although He Youjun didn't care much, the official still had numbers and didn't arrange for the EDG members to appear together.

Ye Bo was also walking the red carpet for the first time, wearing this custom suit for the first time. Fortunately, his figure could still support it, and he wouldn't wear the feeling of stealing his father's clothes...

Walking to the curtain, the two signed their arrival signatures respectively.

Since the last time he was asked for an autograph by the driver, Ye Bo later spent a huge sum of 50 yuan on Taobao to design an autograph and practiced for a while.

It is probably using the structure of "Ye" to make a design similar to "Yeah."

Looking at it, it is clearly not the same style as Brother Shengqiang Ge's crooked English.

The live broadcast room became incomparably lively after the two appeared, and there were careful Sherlocks who discovered this detail.

【Ye Master's autograph? Wait, then the signed photo I bought from a scalper for 300 yuan won't be fake!】

【It's hard to understand why you can spend 300 big oceans to buy a signed photo. I thought only chasing star sisters could do this】

【This statement is wrong! Since buying that signed photo, I have risen three major segments! It's very spiritual to worship before rushing points!】

【Has this function... why didn't you say it earlier? Give me two!】

【I am more concerned about why Uzi is here too? Isn't he retired again?】

Among the few people who walked the red carpet in front, Uzi was included. His "V2I" signature was next to Ye Bo's, and it looked even more abstract by comparison.

However, it is normal for Uzi to come.

After all, when he left the arena last time, the announcement released by BLG said that he was only "temporarily leaving the arena"... He didn't say he retired!

It is worth mentioning that Uzi even contacted two teams during the transfer window.

One is EDG—one is V5!

Can only say, he wants to improve too much.

Unfortunately, he is currently in the status of a free agent.

Ye Bo and Brother Shengqiang Ge waited outside the lens after signing, smiled and walked into the venue with Meiko and Barrier who walked over one after another.

The seats of several people were naturally in the front row.

And when entering the door, Ye Bo also caught a glimpse of Chen Zebin sitting in the most corner, and waved to the other party.

Chen Zebin seemed a bit embarrassed, but also hurriedly waved back.

Although the position was a bit biased, who let him be a substitute who ate leftovers? It's not bad to have a seat, not letting him squat!

However, the reason for his embarrassment was not because of his own arrangement—but because of the comparison between himself and Ye Bo.

His own failure can be forgotten by relying on the sun—but the success of a familiar person is like the three suns of the Three-Body world shining, covering him all the time!

This sun can't go down!!

Maybe this is the legendary fear that you live bitterly, and fear that you open a Land Rover.

However, Chen Zebin is absolutely full of confidence this year.

BLG officially started to build the team with him as the core this year, so they spent a lot of money to buy his old partner Wei who won the MSI championship together, and even bought his old friend Elk. The mid lane is paired with Yagao, who is full of teamwork.

This roster this year is definitely more than a little better than last year's "Twilight City"!

He is very confident, even if he meets V5, he definitely has the power to fight head-on, and he must prove himself by then!

Personnel arrived, simple passing ceremony.

It was Jin Yibo, the helmsman of LPL, who took the stage and began to present awards.

"The players nominated for the 2022 Annual Best Newcomer are..."

The big screen flashed the data of the nominated players and the corresponding game pictures.

Of course, this award is jokingly called 【The award with no suspense in this century】 by barrage viewers.

After all, Ye Bo, as a pure newcomer, is naturally also on the nomination list.

And his competitors are OMG's Shanji and TES's Wayward.

"Ye Ye Bo player! Congratulations!"

Immediately after, one award after another was announced one after another.

Annual Foreign Aid to TheShy, Annual Charity Club to TES, Annual Charity Club to BLG, Annual Progress Award to JDG, Annual Marketing Award to WBG...

Teng Jing really tried his best to divide the cake.

After some strange awards were finished, it was the awards that really had gold content.

"Annual Best Mid (Jungle, Top, Bottom) Lane"

"Annual Most Popular Player"

"Annual Best Roster"

Ye Bo didn't even sit hot on his butt, so he had to continue to take the stage to express his award-winning feelings.

Among them, the Annual Best Mid Lane brought him another trophy!

What is even more worth mentioning is the "Annual Best Roster."

This time, it is also the first year in history that a "full team package" best roster—last year's EDG was replaced by Top Hu for Brother Shengqiang Ge!

But this year's unprecedented two consecutive championships in the region, even if Teng Jing wants to divide the cake again, he really has no way to cut it.

Viper couldn't attend, so everyone held a photo of him together, baring their teeth and grinning at the camera on stage together.

However, these are also awards with no suspense.

What is truly eye-catching is the other few awards that are not very concerned.

【2022 Annual Best Manager: EDG-Mingkai】

【2022 Annual Best Coaching Staff: EDG Competition Training Department】

【2022 Annual Best Youth Training Coach: Wang Chujun】

【2022 Annual Best Overseas Commentary Host: Lyric】

【2022 Annual Top Ten Event Content Creators: EDG Club, Chu Jun Aike, A Shuai Pyke, Salted Fish King Xu Hansan, Honest and Thick Smile, Rabbit Play Games...】

The attribution of several awards seems inexplicable.

In fact, all of them are hidden mysteries!

For example, Wang Chujun's "Best Youth Training Coach"—the LDL youth training team he originally worked for is gone, and he should have been "unemployed" long ago!

The reason why he can still be rated as the best coach is just from the perspective of file records and processes:

Ye Bo is the "performance" he discovered when he was a youth training coach.

Just looking at this, this performance alone can naturally be rated as the best youth training coach!

Who can compare to him!

Besides that, the best overseas commentator "Lyric" is a well-known "Grandpa Fan" in the English LPL live commentary, known as the English version of Wang Duoduo, and is famous for every wonderful operation of Ye Bo that he can listen to a long English cross-talk.

As for the top ten content creators, if you look closely, you will find that they are all kings of various cut-outs and sharp comments.

Among them, the small transparent on the roadside called Salted Fish King Xu Hansan, who made "Ye Operation Collection," received tens of millions of views with just that one video!

【Broken, this time Wang Chujun really has to change his name to Ye Chujun!】

【Can only say, the wall behind A Shuai's camera has long been hung with Ye Master's photo, the same routine as XXBB hanging Ma Huateng, too respected, family members!】

【This look is full of black curtains, and didn't even give my top filial grandson Kid a status?】

【The legendary one person attains the Dao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, right】

【It is reasonable, do you understand the power of the Dou Emperor bloodline? The chickens in the next village can directly fly into Kun!】

The awards ceremony is interspersed with the All-Star main tournament for ratings.

After more than half of the awards were presented, the main tournament—solo tournament—was immediately inserted.

Except for TheShy who didn't arrive and couldn't participate, all EDG members, Ye Bo, Uzi, Bin, and all other players went to participate.

Player channel, Chen Zebin even took the initiative to find Ye Bo.

"Hey, how about choosing Seeing Akali together? Play a game!" He looked full of fighting spirit.

"Okay, it just so happens that I have quite a few new understandings of Seeing Akali recently~" Ye Bo naturally had no reason to refuse, but his mouth was a bit fast.

The person opposite heard it and was still a bit inexplicable. When he turned his back, he was still muttering: "What do you mean you and Seeing Akali have new understandings..."

The solo tournament is a 3-ban blind pick system, that is, you can ban three heroes of the opponent, and choose heroes under blind pick.

This is why if there is any matchup you really want to play, you have to say it privately in advance.

What is a pity is.

Bin, who was highly expected by everyone, confidently chose Aatrox in the blind pick, wanting to know who he wanted to cos, but was defeated by AL's Harder with a Crocodile in the first game!

One round tour!

He brushed past Ye Bo when he went down the stage, and clearly still unconvinced, said: "Don't worry, see you in the main tournament!"

Some people in the solo tournament focus on entertainment, choosing happy heroes like Yasuo when they come in.

But some people are very serious about this—after all, who says the solo champion is not a champion.

Of course, Ye Bo is also very serious.

The reason is nothing else, just because he also has a trophy for the solo tournament champion.

From the perspective of redeeming practice points, the solo tournament is really no different from the S-series.

Uzi, who has won multiple Solo Kings, showed his power again, fighting all the way from the group, and soon met Ye Bo in the final group under the special arrangement of the official.

"Here it comes, here it comes, Ye Master and Little Dog's solo! This is not common!" Guan Zeyuan on the commentary stage seemed to be looking forward to it very much.

And Uzi in the player seat looked incomparably serious.

In the ban stage, he cautiously banned Seeing Akali + Sylas + Zoe, the three signature heroes, and also good players on the solo map.

Ye Bo didn't change his choice particularly, still choosing the hero he played quite happily in the previous group stage.

"Ye Master still chose K'Sante; he seems to really like playing this hero." Miller said with a smile.

"But speaking of which, this hero was cut too hard by those few knives before, and now there is only 40-something win rate in the road-man game. I don't know if we can see it in the future games..."

In the current vision, K'Sante is a hero with great controversy.

On the one hand, from the various powerful mechanisms that just came out, everyone felt that it was a super-model monster, and almost every game ban spot bought a house.

To the designer's emergency continuous online several hot patches, cut quite a few values, leading to the selection rate instantly falling to the bottom.

The views of professional players are also very different, or rather, most of them have not mastered and developed it.

But Ye Bo, after using it for this period of time, firmly believes that—this hero is absolutely super-model!

"Little Dog chose Vayne!!" Guan Zeyuan was excited.

"This game is really good to watch, it's just that I feel K'Sante is a bit in jail playing Vayne, especially on this map..."

The solo tournament uses a special mode, and the map is the Howling Abyss that will "shrink the circle," which is the ARAM map.

Everyone knows that Vayne is definitely good at playing K'Sante.

The facts are indeed so.

The only winning move for K'Sante to play a hero with knockback ability like Vayne is to rely on W's {Unstoppable} to offset the opponent's E skill, and then use Q3 to pull back to close range.

But Uzi's distance pulling is very strong, the blood exchange has never given much opportunity, and even didn't give any space for the game of W and E skills at all, just simply A slowly grinding blood.

The good news is that there is no eye to buy in this mode, K'Sante can use the grass to avoid being pressed for experience.

And because there is a shrinking circle mechanism, there is no victory condition of "100 knives," only kill victory.

Ye Bo kept his blood volume while waiting for the circle to shrink in the grass.

Whenever the soldier line approaches, as long as Vayne doesn't take the initiative to hand over Q to chase A, at most it is just being A two or three times, and the blood volume disadvantage will not be too much.

And Uzi is not in a hurry at all—because this mode can return to the city, can exchange the advantage of last hits for better equipment, plus the plating ground off, the equipment gap will be pulled wider and wider!

"Ye Master is so uncomfortable, this can't touch Vayne at all, Little Dog's distance mastery is too good!"

"In this way, Ye Master should only be able to wait for the circle to shrink, but Vayne's equipment advantage is getting bigger and bigger. There is already blood sucking here, and I am not afraid of your consumption..."

【The legendary solo kill king is nothing more than that! The real Solo King must be my Dog!】

【Nen Ma, it's clear that he knows Ye Master has been playing K'Sante in the group stage, and after choosing a red glasses, he is confident, right?】

【Hehe, can only say that if you lose, don't find excuses. In terms of personal strength, my Dog is definitely the top three in history! The only solo champion!】

【The one upstairs looks like a fake fan! That is S(olo) tournament champion! S must be capitalized!! —This is the real S(.'. ) tournament three-time champion!】

【Nao Ma, heard that someone applied for EDG and V5 and there was no news, won't it be wanting to inherit the trophy (】

Just as the strings were flying on the barrage.

The circle in the Howling Abyss has begun to shrink.

Ye Bo knew he couldn't drag it anymore, E soldier pulled closer, forcibly W topped front Q shot to exchange a wave of blood volume.

However, there is an extra economic bonus in this mode, Vayne has already made a Blade of the Ruined King, has good recovery ability, and the blood volume will definitely be full when the circle shrinks. This is obviously a failed blood exchange!

In Uzi's view, this is the opponent being anxious!

Vayne constantly pulls vision in the grass and soldier line, sucking blood to pull up blood volume.

Although he doesn't know much about this thing K'Sante, he only knows that this thing seems to have a very outrageous burst damage, simply like an assassin.

But no matter how high it is, it is essentially a tank hero.

How can it be possible to kill him in seconds with full blood!

As long as you can't kill him in one wave, Vayne pulls away by RQ stealth, a counter-push can easily operate, relying on the blood volume advantage, and can immediately be in an invincible position!

K'Sante accumulated Q3's 【Unparalleled Gyro Axe】 again, but didn't shoot in a hurry.

Vayne is clearly giving a position on purpose—just because once K'Sante can't bear to shrink the circle, and all-in now, Vayne only needs to pull away and the game is already over in advance!

But Uzi felt a pity, finding that the other party was very smart, as if he didn't take the bait at all...

However.

Actually, Ye Bo is looking for an angle...

Just as Vayne entered and exited the grass again, disappeared from vision and entered a safe psychological moment.

K'Sante suddenly raised his hand and rose violently in a strange direction!

Q-flash start without vision aimed at the grass where Vayne disappeared, knocking out a "revolving shockwave"!

Without any warning and front swing, Vayne was almost hit in the face and bounced back.

Uzi was not panicked at all.

His blood volume was at least 70%, K'Sante couldn't kill him after a set, and he didn't even need to flash to pull away, it was simply a dog jumping over the wall.

The situation was almost locked in victory!

But—Vayne's body "stagnated" in the air, and was instantly pushed to the wall in the opposite direction!!

It was K'Sante who used the {knockback} of the second W 【Road-Breaking Pioneer】 to interrupt his own Q3's reverse {knock-up}, changing the displacement direction of Q!

The next moment, the R skill 【Proud Posture】 directly grabbed Vayne's red head and slammed it hard toward the wall in the middle of the first tower in front—disappearing!!

"What's the situation???"

"Where did this fly to!!!"

The director lens couldn't keep up.

Only saw a black uncle holding a red-glasses young woman's head, "gliding for thousands of miles" inside the "wall" of the Howling Abyss!

During the forced glide.

Both of them have entered the true damage range of the "Shrinking Circle Flame," and the blood volume began to drop extremely fast!

And the destination of the flight... turned out to be in front of the door tower!

After landing, the blood volume of both was very residual, but it was clearly K'Sante who was more residual.

But K'Sante, who entered the "Full Posture," all skills will be upgraded, passive gains {True Damage}, Q gains acceleration, W adds extra execution effects!

The ultimate move resets the whole set of skills, and the second set of enhanced QW was cut in seconds at the moment of landing.

Vayne, who still had one-third of his blood, had just raised the Holy Silver Arrow and had already fallen before the execution of the outrageous burst true damage!

"Wow wow wow!!!" Guan Zeyuan stole Doll's habit.

"Turtle, can you fly so far!?"

"Flying from in front of the first tower to in front of the door, 'living and dying together' in the wall using the fire circle damage, falling blood into the execution line together, and completing the extreme execution with K'Sante's outrageous burst after landing!"

Actually, there is another small detail.

K'Sante's ultimate move is actually not "no consumption," but will directly drop 45% of the maximum health—but if it is already lower than this blood volume, it is a no-consumption skill!

This is why Ye Bo went to perform a wave of attempts that looked obviously a bit "anxious" and lost a lot of blood.

Anyway, whether you change that wave of blood or not, it will drop so much after opening the ultimate move.

"Then congratulations to our final solo tournament champion! Ye!!"

Fireworks sprayed on both sides of the stage instantly.

Ye Bo also clapped happily and took another trophy!

The barrage was instantly lively.

【Black! Son! Speak!!!】

【Laugh to death, the ones who opened champagne just now, come out! Do you understand what is the king of solo kills and the king of lane? Hmm?】

【Ye Wen is too bad, woo woo woo, even took away my Dog's S-champion, life-long black!】

【Ye Wen stole my Dog's life!】

Although the barrage was joking, Uzi himself didn't have much reaction, just took a few deep breaths on the spot and recovered his state, and even took the initiative to find Ye Bo next door to congratulate him.

Can only say.

Familiar, too familiar.

The scene continued without stopping, and the team tournament was held in a row.

However, there were only team formations within the LPL region, and several big-name players didn't arrive at the scene, so this team tournament really didn't have much expectation.

Ye Bo, as the team captain, directly chose three old EDG teammates.

And because Viper was not there, he finally chose Uzi who held the Little Fist Stone high...

On the other side, JKL and Bin formed the Huanggang Fried Rice duo and matched up against this "4+1 EDG."

This game was clearly bullying people. Several IDs on the opposite side were not familiar second-line players, matching this "almost" full-state EDG.

Everyone chose entertainment rosters, and Ye Bo directly came with a Teemo mid!

Only Bin chose a Weapon, killing all sides in the lane, but because the gap between the whole team was too large, the result was of no avail, and he was also blown by the Teemo blinding blow that made his eyebrows jump wildly.

"Congratulations to Ye Team! 37 minutes to take this happy team tournament!"

"Little Dog's Draven is really okay, Ye Master's mushroom array also made the Weapon Master numb, this game is really crazy arresting Ah Bin"

The barrage started to get lively again.

【Uzi: I said it! Look, I said it! Just say EDG can win the championship if I come!】

【Bin is crazy, just he alone seriously chose the Weapon, why was he still arrested? Arrested twice in one day, I dare not imagine how many times he will be arrested this season~】

【Quick quick quick, lift the big play up 8!】

Two main tournaments ended, and finally it was the last award with the most gold content.

"Annual MVP"

Jin Yibo took the stage again, mystifying the atmosphere.

"Congratulations! Ye player!"

"Won the Annual MVP of the LPL region for the 2022 season!!"

The ID appeared without suspense, and Jin Yibo took the lead to clap hard.

And when Ye Bo took the stage.

In the venue, besides the applause of everyone, the narrator's commentary that set off the atmosphere also echoed.

"Shadow is the cluster, sharpness is like thunder, the coronation mark of the new generation assassin king."

"On the field, he arrived at the canyon wearing starlight, the silver moon double blades were unsheathed, and it was the light of dawn. In just a hundred days of journey, he forged the mid-lane canyon into an inverted killing road."

"Off the field, the muscle memory he continuously practiced, the comprehensive dominance declaration from cold assassin to traditional mage, brought everyone one miracle performance after another"

"Annual MVP, well-deserved!"

Ye Bo, who had a big harvest, and four heavy trophies in his arms.

Left a group photo in the dazzling fireworks covering the scene.
