Precise and Elegant, High Class!

Unsurprisingly, after EDG's first loss, countless LGD fans and Imperial fans descended upon Chu Ran's Weibo to unleash their fury.

Their insults, centered around parents and ancestors, were so all-encompassing it was as if they were all seasoned veterans of the Zu'an comment section.

The barrage only stopped when someone commented, 'Stop raging, you guys. This guy is unbeatable in Zu'an, he's an orphan.'

But as soon as Chu Ran refreshed his phone, he saw his latest Weibo post, and the mocking immediately resumed.

[What are you jumping around for? Ran Chu, if you like dancing so much, why are you a pro player? Go pole dancing!]

[LGD won 2-0, and you still need my opinion? How much per square foot is your face? A Tang Dynasty mansion's face?]

[LOL, if EDG replaces someone with Ran Chu now, do they think Ran Chu can beat Jinoo?]

[I don't know, but EDG's three top laners are all self-crippled, one only plays Maokai, and one only talks big to gain attention. None of them are human.]

[This is the fine tradition of EDG top laners, never acting like a decent person.]

[EDG was the first to learn from LCK, but after so long, they still haven't learned a 4-1 split push. What their skill level is, I don't need to say more.]

[I'll perform your mother's cunt. If you like acting so much, why don't you become an actor?]

[Maybe he is. EDG has Director Nuo.]

During the break, Chu Ran's Weibo post sparked a heated discussion across the internet.

LGD's backstage lounge.

Eimy opened his phone and said with a grin, "Ran Chu is going on stage soon. He said he'll put on a show."

"Him putting on a show of getting solo-killed by Chen You?" Godv burst out laughing. "Why does this guy love making people laugh so much?"

Head coach Heart frowned. "We should still be careful. This guy isn't weak, or he wouldn't be talking so big every day."

Chu Ran's performance against Snake a few days ago had already proven himself. While not exceptionally strong, he was definitely not someone who could be easily crushed.

"If Fiora is banned, he'll retire on the spot. He can only play tanks then," Godv waved his hand. "Chen You, you and I will crush him later. What kind of trash is he? He picks skins on stream like me."

"Sure, sure, no problem. Leave it to me," Jinoo patted his chest. "I'll definitely crush him. What kind of trash is he? He plays Fiora like me."

As soon as he said this, the entire LGD backstage was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Meanwhile, in EDG's backstage, Mouse and the others looked at Chu Ran's Weibo with shock.

Wait, bro, are you the Weibo Prince?

Abu put his hand to his face. He had to indulge the weirdo he brought in. "Alright, hurry up and get ready to go on stage. If you win, you can post as many Weibo updates as you want."

"Mouse, tell me about your experience laning against Xiao Ran."

Immediately, Mouse, with a face full of grievances, rambled on, concluding that Chu Ran was strong and he couldn't beat him.

"Just be careful. If you really can't handle it, just ban his Fiora."

"If the person is no good, don't blame the road. Give me 50, and I'll teach you how to play top lane."

"..."

Chu Ran's gesture of extending his palm directly silenced Mouse.

If there weren't so many people around, he would have transformed into a demon.

Who are you calling no good?

Why does that face full of collagen have to have a mouth?

Even Abu wanted to stuff something in Chu Ran's mouth.

This is too insulting. Can you leave some dignity for Mouse? If you keep talking, Mouse will start shedding tears.

"Go on stage, go on stage. I already gave you 50, and you still want more." Seeing Chu Ran like this, Abu quickly pushed him out of the lounge. One might have thought EDG had brought in a scammer.

After Chu Ran and the others left, Abu looked at Ming Kai and slowly asked, "Ming Kai, will we win?"

"We'll win." In reality, Ming Kai wasn't confident. Mouse had been beaten that badly, and Chu Ran... it was hard to say.

On the LPL commentary desk.

Guan Zeyuan adjusted his collar and said to the camera with a smile, "Okay, welcome back. This is the second game of the 2017 LPL Spring Split regular season, LGD versus EDG. According to backstage news, EDG has brought in the previously performing player, Easy, for the second game."

"Yes," Miller nodded. "The second game is full of highlights. We saw Jinoo's Fiora in the first game, truly living up to his name as the 'Sword Immortal'. Player Easy is also known for his Fiora, dominating the Chinese server and having some fame on the Korean server. I wonder who will pick Fiora next, and how the other will respond."

Upon hearing that Chu Ran was about to play, Uzi's plump body trembled, and his eyes lit up.

I caught you now.

I thought you weren't going to play.

"Teacher Miller isn't wrong, but compared to Jinoo, I think Player Easy still has some gap, and his champion pool is a big problem. After all, Jinoo's champion pool is quite deep. If LGD picks Fiora, what will Easy use to counter it? That's a difficult problem for him."

"That's right, without further ado, let's move directly to the second game's BP."

At the players' seats, coaches Heart and Nofe were constantly scribbling in their notebooks.

Because of their loss in the first game, EDG chose the blue side for the second game. After all, in this meta, red side must ban Rengar, naturally losing one ban slot.

At LGD's player seats, they all grinned when they saw Chu Ran actually playing in the second game.

"Mouse couldn't do it, so bringing him up will just get him beaten."

"Okay, let's ban the Great Tree and Poppy," Heart said, adding, "Do we ban Camille?"

"No need. If he picks Camille, I can handle it. If he doesn't pick her, I'll take her," Jinoo said confidently.

Eimy clicked his tongue. "Coach, that's too ruthless. Targeting a rookie who hasn't played many matches like this?"

"Pawn and Deft can't be targeted like that either," Heart said with some helplessness. It would be better to put the ban on Chu Ran. Just like the last game, they would let Jinoo break through on the top lane and use split-pushing to make EDG dizzy.

Breaking through at one point, as long as their mid and bot lanes held steady and the top lane broke through, they would pretty much win this game.

"Aren't you banning Camille?" Imp asked softly.

This champion debuted in December. Its incredibly broken mechanics and stats had caused Imp to be killed by Camille countless times when playing solo queue.

It was impossible to defend against. She just came over and kicked you to death, kicking an AD Carry was like kicking a stray dog by the roadside.

Although it was January now, she had already been nerfed once. Initially, her W skill could heal by hitting minions, but now she could only heal by hitting heroes. The attack speed and stun bonuses from her E skill were also weakened, but she was still very BT.

Imp highly suspected that the designers of League of Legends were just slacking off.

Every time a new champion was released, they were overpowered, then nerfed, still overpowered, then nerfed again. Later, they found they couldn't balance it.

"Well, since that's the case, let's nerf Irelia."

"Fucking League of Legends designers."

If Chu Ran knew Imp's inner thoughts, he would definitely applaud with both hands.

What kind of bullshit champions were released later, like Samira, Nilah, and Vex? Especially the idiotic League of Legends designers before Chu Ran's rebirth had replaced his retirement spot, the Howling Abyss, with 'The Bridge to Quitting,' and then he had left the retirement home.

"Doesn't the opposing Easy not play Camille much? I haven't seen him play her much. He probably won't pick her. Trust my judgment," Heart said earnestly. Did they think he was just a slacker as the head coach? All the information was written in his notebook.

"Huh? EDG has banned Twitch, Orianna, and Taliyah, while LGD has directly put Great Tree, Poppy, and Rengar into the ban list. They didn't ban Camille or Fiora. Instead, they directly locked down two top lane 'gods.' What do you think, will Easy dare to pick Camille? If he doesn't, LGD will take her," Miller said with some surprise.

Guan Zeyuan was about to agree, but Uzi spoke first. "That's right. If you play Camille, LGD is confident they can handle it. If you don't play her, I will. Then, we'll ban a few big tanks and directly leave Easy with no champions to play."

"As I said, as a professional player, you can't just know a few champions. If your champion pool is too shallow, you'll be targeted by the opponent."

Uzi's lips curved upwards, and Guan Zeyuan beside him was holding back laughter.

Last year at Worlds, they banned Jhin every single game. How dare they talk about other people's shallow champion pools?

At the EDG player booth, Nofe asked Chu Ran for his opinion. "Xiao Ran, do you want to play Camille?"

"? Coach Nofe, you've really learned Chinese. Then... Camille it is."

He had already taken a sip of his small wine, so it wouldn't make sense not to pick Camille.

"?"

Instantly, Nofe and the others' eyes narrowed. Camille was very strong, and they had seen Chu Ran play her before. But to be so confident to pick her directly in a match?

However, since Chu Ran said he could play her, and she was an OP champion in the current meta, there was no reason not to pick her.

Let's trust him first!

"Precise and elegant."

As a clear female voice resounded throughout the arena, everyone was startled.

"Huh? Huh?" Guan Zeyuan was greatly surprised. "My goodness! Camille locked in directly. Player Easy is very confident. Camille is yours, I won't play her. Could it be that Player Easy is a Camille one-trick?"

"It's unlikely. This champion has only been out for less than a month," Uzi said in surprise. "Maybe he's afraid Jinoo will pick Camille and he won't be able to handle her."

At this moment, the LGD players were also shocked. Heart's expression changed slightly. Did his information have an error?

But no matter what, since EDG picked Camille, there was no reason not to let Jinoo pick Camille.

The BP between the two sides was quick.

In less than a moment, both teams' lineups were revealed.

EDG, on the blue side: Top lane Camille, Jungle Lee Sin, Mid lane Ryze, Bot lane Jhin and Braum.

LGD, on the red side: Top lane Fiora, Jungle Kha'Zix, Mid lane Corki, Bot lane Sivir and Alistar.

After both coaches walked off the stage, the audience in the venue and in the live stream immediately began to discuss.

[Ran Chu playing Camille? No, can he even play her properly?]

[If Ran Chu could learn a champion within a month, he wouldn't have been watching the water dispenser at RNG.]

[Laughed so hard. He didn't pick Camille when offered, but insisted on picking Camille to show off?]

[You guys don't know, Ran Chu is like a trash bag. Nothing he can't pretend to be.]

Imperial dogs are really annoying. Someone can't even play a champion properly for a whole season, but they're still the world's number one ADC?

[Hahaha, crushed!]

[The filial sons of Bathing Dog are truly hypocritical. They lost the match and started saying Jhin is his main.]

[As everyone knows, watching matches, having a brain, and liking Uzi – a normal person can only have two out of these three.]

As these comments flooded in, the live stream rooms on various platforms instantly turned into battlegrounds, with heated arguments.

Amidst the cheers of the live audience, the Summoner's Rift for this match gradually unfolded before everyone's eyes.

The director also gave Chu Ran a close-up shot.

At this moment.

The world's focus was on you.
