Chapter 95

The Legend Cup is over,

but the ripples brought about by this incident are hard to calm down for a long time. The most obvious thing is that the viewing popularity of the LPL has begun to gradually warm up.

Especially the number of fans of the TES team has also shown a trend of skyrocketing in just a few days, and everyone is looking forward to Su Xing's first match as a professional player.

Soon, this day arrived.

"How is it, today is the first time returning to the competitive scene, is there a feeling of being very nervous?"

Inside the TES lounge at the match scene,

Su Xing and the others of the TES team were also laughing and talking, including the original mid laner Creme.

At first, Creme was actually quite helpless,

after all, his starting mid laner position was fine, and suddenly someone came and snatched his position. However, in the subsequent training matches, Su Xing's performance also made him completely lose his temper.

One word: strong.

It was strong to the point that he had nothing to say. Now Creme's mentality has also opened up. If you can't compete, just be a substitute and steal some technology by the way. At worst, just change to another team next season.

Anyway, he is still young, being a substitute is not a big deal.

"It's alright."

Su Xing laughed dumbly and said: "Nervousness is unlikely to be nervous, just... a bit emotional."

"It's fine, slaughter them today."

Yu Wenbo chuckled and said: "You can play casually in the league, we are all counting on the Esports World Cup."

Because the LPL made some changes in the summer season, in addition to increasing the Global Ban/Pick, there were also some group stage things. Currently, with TES's strength, they basically play these matches with their eyes closed. After all, the only teams that have no chance of winning are probably only BLG and JDG.

But due to the group stage system, the three teams basically won't have any chance to meet in the early stage, and even if they do, it will be in the matches after returning from the Esports World Cup.

"Prepare to go up."

Just at this moment, the staff interrupted everyone's chat and reminded them to prepare to appear in the match.

"Charge, charge, charge."

A moment later, everyone went on stage one by one, especially when the host introduced Su Xing, the cheers of the whole audience were one wave after another.

"Take a deep breath, don't be too excited, the first match depends on your performance."

Sitting in the chair and putting on the headset to debug his mouse and keyboard, Mao Kai's palm fell on Su Xing's shoulder and said: "Don't be affected by the atmosphere of the scene."

"It's fine."

Su Xing rubbed his face. It's fine, just now when the whole audience shouted his name, he was indeed a bit too excited.

"It's fine if it's fine. Later, during the Ban/Pick, do you need to leave the last counter pick for you?"

Although Mao Kai let Su Xing play, he was also worried about his state. This match is too important for Su Xing. Su Xing thought for a while and said: "What mid laner did the WE team use in the first match just now?"

Their opponent today, the WE team.

Mao Kai:... Didn't he just analyze some heroes that FoFo is good at playing in the lounge just now? Did Su Xing not listen? Even the four teammates couldn't help but look at Su Xing, who said awkwardly: "Just now my brain was thinking about other things... didn't pay attention to listening."

Mao Kai took a deep breath and said: "He used Tristana."

"Hmm, then I'll use Corki."

Su Xing touched his nose. When playing training matches, the mid laners of both teams basically used Corki against Tristana, and they didn't change it back and forth.

"Alright, then Corki."

Mao Kai nodded. He was not worried about Su Xing's hero pool at all.

Su Xing made an OK gesture, indicating that there was no need to worry at all.

"Good."

Mao Kai patted Su Xing's shoulder and said: "Then later, first pick Corki, you have to pay attention that the other side will target you."

With the official start of the match, the TES team decisively locked in the hero Corki.

The scene was in an uproar. What does the TES team mean? "Audience friends, the TES team actually first picked Corki, but Tristana is still outside!"

"To be reasonable, I think Tristana is better. Why not take Tristana?"

"To be honest, Su Xing's Corki has something to say, this should not be worried about."

The three commentators on the commentary desk were also very curious. Between Corki and Tristana, TES chose Corki, which needs more development but is more powerful in the late game.

Countless viewers in the online live broadcast room saw this Corki, and various discussions emerged overwhelmingly. After all, the TES team is a well-known fun team. In addition to having many fans, there are also many haters.

"Are you worthy of playing Corki? My god, you really think this is the Old Man Cup, this is how much you can't think through..."

"What does Su Xing want to do? Can't he have a B number in his heart about playing Corki in the LPL?"

"It seems that he is going to take the blame. What is the TES team doing?"

"This game is gone. It's fine for TES to use Su Xing, but directly giving him Azir or Taliyah wouldn't work? Don't think that FoFo is the mid laner of the Old Man Cup, right?"

"Still closing his eyes and pretending to be deep, damn..."

After locking in the hero, Su Xing closed his eyes, seemingly resting, and didn't notice the camera pointing at him, but he didn't care about these at all.

The lineups of both sides had already been decided.

The TES team had Jayce in the top lane, Sejuani in the jungle, Corki in the mid lane, and the bottom lane duo was Senna + Ornn.

And the WE team's top laner was Kennen, the jungler was Lee Sin, the mid laner was Tristana, and the bottom lane duo was Kai'Sa + Nautilus.

"Come on."

Mao Kai patted Su Xing's shoulder again, wanting to say something, but at this time the referee urged the coach that he could leave the field.

In the WE team, the five people, including the coach, also frowned. They didn't expect that Su Xing would take such a top-tier big carry hero in the first match.

"What do they want to do?"

FoFo looked at this Corki and felt a bit uncomfortable. This person used his most proficient hero to lane against him? "Don't think about these now, you have to believe in yourself, you also understand this hero Corki, no need to worry." The WE team's coach patted his shoulder and said: "Let the jungler take care of it more later, their bottom lane is also a breakthrough."

"Good, I will beat you until you retire!"

FoFo let out a long breath. Who are you looking down on? Isn't it just an Old Man Cup championship? What's so great about it?

"Brother Su, do you need to take care of the mid lane in this game?"

Jungler Xiao Tian asked. Their system was definitely focused on Jayce in the top lane, followed by the mid lane.

"No need." Su Xing was extremely calm.

The jungle started normally, and neither side showed a strong intention to invade. Standing in the river bush, Su Xing looked thoughtfully at the fog vision in front.

Forget it, don't go to place a ward.

Anyway, he already knew that someone had placed a ward there, just let them pay attention to it later.

Less than three minutes into the laning phase, FoFo had an indescribable feeling: this Corki's laning details were so strong! At the same time, the three commentators also noticed the situation in the mid lane: Corki's CS was leading, and he had also suppressed Tristana's health.

Three minutes, created a laning advantage? As the director gave the camera to the mid lane, they also began to play.

"I have to say, Su Xing's Corki has something. The details of these three minutes are full, and he actually created an advantage. Do you dare to believe it?"

"But the problem now is that the TES team's jungler is more inclined to the top lane and won't waste too much time in the mid lane, while the WE team's jungler is already close to the mid lane. I don't know if this GANK can be successful."

The commentator's voice just fell, and in the game, they could see Su Xing's Corki's positioning pull back a bit. Suddenly, the three commentators looked at each other. This... is it a coincidence or did he realize something? "Their jungler is in the mid." Su Xing marked the river bush on the left.

"So fast?" Xiao Tian frowned. The opponent's jungler is Lee Sin, and his jungle clearing efficiency is indeed a bit faster than his own, but he is not willing to go over.

Because whether it is Su Xing's Corki or Sejuani, it is difficult to have a kill before Level 6.

"No need to care, you farm yours." Su Xing said calmly. Since he knows where the jungler is, there is no big problem.

"There is vision here?"

The jungler crouching in the bush frowned. He wanted to come over first to open the situation in the mid lane, but he felt that he seemed to have been discovered.

"Impossible, he didn't go to place a ward at all." FoFo said confidently.

"Then wait another ten seconds."

Just like this, from the perspective of the commentators and the audience, the WE team's Lee Sin crouched on the side for more than ten seconds and still didn't find any opportunity.

"Su Xing's consciousness is too strong, right? Through the footage just now, we can actually see that the moment Lee Sin walked to the river, Su Xing chose to retreat."

"This might become a foreshadowing. A Lee Sin wasting ten seconds in the early game is actually a very terrifying thing."

"Look, just as this Lee Sin left, Su Xing's Corki seemed to know it, directly crossing the minion wave to suppress health again. If this weren't God's perspective, I would think he definitely had vision."

The commentators felt incredible. Mao Kai in the lounge saw this scene and couldn't help but show a sharp light in his eyes. This person is really strong, exactly the same as his performance in the training match! Details, maybe others can't see too much, but for a coach of a professional team, what he sees are all details!

Flawless laning ability, incredible consciousness, this... in Su Xing's peak period, he felt he couldn't play this feeling!

Creme, who was sitting behind him, suddenly felt a bit thirsty. Even he had to admit that this Corki was really too strong. How did he realize the approach of the jungler?

"Didn't you say there was no vision?" The jungler almost vomited blood. When he was there, he was honest, and just two seconds after he left, Su Xing started to cross the minion wave to suppress.

"There really can't be a ward, could it be that their jungler placed it?" FoFo also had a headache.

"I'll go upgrade first."

Without the interference of the jungler, Su Xing began to become extremely aggressive. FoFo, who was laning against him, became very uncomfortable. The operation details of the Corki in front of him were too strong, making him completely unable to find a chance to fight back.

As time passed, Su Xing, who was in a leading state, reached Level 6 first.

Seeing this, FoFo immediately chose to retreat, because his health had been suppressed very low, and Su Xing reaching Level 6 first already had the qualification to kill him.

"Wait for the minion wave to come in."

However, just at this moment, the Corki in front directly flashed across the minion wave! With an instinctive reaction, FoFo also flashed, because he knew very well that Su Xing wanted to flash to close the distance, and then use the E skill to sweep and output damage.

"How could he predict my Flash position!!?" The next moment, FoFo's eyes widened. How did Su Xing predict it?

It's just that Su Xing didn't give him more opportunities, manipulating Corki to instantly get close to FoFo's Tristana, a perfect skill connection, and the full damage directly beheaded Tristana in front of his own defensive tower.

【FirstBlood】! When this loud announcement sounded, the director also hurriedly moved the camera to the mid lane, but only saw the nearly full-health Corki slowly taking a hit from the defensive tower and walking out.

The camera just happened to capture Su Xing's calm face and FoFo's incredible expression, forming a strong contrast.

The three hosts were stunned, the two team coaches and substitutes in the lounge were also stunned, and the audience at the scene was silent together. The large venue felt a bit quiet at this moment.

The director was also very sensible at this time and began to replay the kill footage just now. The whole process was no more than three seconds. From this, seeing Su Xing's predicted W skill, the audience at the scene couldn't help but take a cold breath.

"Wow, what did I see? What kind of god-like operation is this? Su Xing's Corki..."

The three commentators were a bit excited. Just from that kill alone, it can be seen that this is the strength that a true top-tier mid laner should have! In the TES team lounge, Mao Kai saw this kill and couldn't help but clench his fists, his face full of excitement.

That's it, the former Su Xing is back! No, he not only came back, but also became stronger!

What is the most important thing for a professional player? That is confidence! Creme, who was behind him, saw this kill and felt a bit dry in his mouth for no reason. He walked to the water dispenser next to him, poured a glass of water, and drank it down.

In the game, after killing Tristana, Su Xing felt alert in his heart.

Someone is coming!

He should have just finished clearing a group of jungle monsters and his health was only two-thirds. The moment he walked out of the bush, he directly flashed and used the W skill to touch the eye to close the distance.

Under such operations, the distance to Corki was very close. Su Xing didn't hesitate, moving while the minion wave was moving and maintaining output.

Lee Sin also anticipated it, not using the Q skill first, but an E skill 【Tempest/Cripple】!

Su Xing's Corki was immediately slowed down because of this skill.

"Die for me!"

A flash of cold light flashed in the jungler's eyes, and he immediately raised his hand to use a Q skill 【Sonic Wave/Resonating Strike】! As long as he hits, combined with the damage of the second-stage Q and the Red Buff, he can definitely take away Su Xing's Corki. At this moment, everyone thought so.

"It's a pity, Lee Sin caught this opportunity. Actually, it's not a loss, one-for-one and earned the jungler's Flash."

"It's a bit of a pity, but it doesn't matter. Once a hero like Corki gets an advantage in the lane, it will radiate to other side lanes."

"Yes, next, let's see if the TES team's jungler will tilt the focus slightly to the mid lane. With Corki getting a kill, he will definitely be targeted infinitely next."

The three commentators kept talking, almost declaring that Su Xing's Corki would inevitably die, but the next moment, the voices of the three stopped abruptly.

The distance between Corki and Lee Sin in the game was no more than 150 yards, but in this distance, Lee Sin's Q skill actually missed! To be precise, it didn't miss, but was dodged by Su Xing using an extreme movement that looked outrageous!!?

"You're dead!"

Su Xing looked at Lee Sin's Q skill missing, and then a cold light emerged in his eyes.

Three seconds later, the low-health Corki stepped over Lee Sin's corpse, and Summoner's Rift sounded a loud announcement.

【DoubleKill!】

The three commentators looked at each other, the atmosphere suddenly quieted down, and there was even a faint burning sensation on their faces... "Awesome!"

The late-arriving Sejuani saw this scene and could only use two words to describe the shock in his heart.
