Imp: Am I Inferior to Deft? Xiba! Deft Is Trash!

At that moment, Meiko and the others were somewhat taken aback as golden question marks kept appearing in the top lane.

"Brother Ran, you..."

"Little Ran, awesome, smida~" Pawn and Deft praised in unison. They were still laning, yet Chu Ran had already scored a solo kill?

In LGD's Player Booth, Jinoo was somewhat absent-minded. Even with Eimy's furious roar ringing beside his ear, he remained completely unaware.

"What the hell are you playing at? Chen You, watching you perform? Yeah, I saw it—tower-dived and solo killed at level two, and this Fiora still didn't die."

Eimy was somewhat helpless. He was still clearing the jungle, yet the top lane had already died.

The main issue was that if your top laner died, then so be it. Elise had started at their F6, and with Camille dead, who was going to defend his upper blue-side jungle? Fiora TP'd back to lane and continued pushing, while Camille could only collect minions.

Looking toward mid, Godv was barely managing to hold even. There definitely wouldn't be anyone to support Eimy in the jungle later.

He was screwed!

At this moment, bullet comments were also flooding across the LPL match livestream room.

Turtle turtle! Who said Camille countered Fiora? Why did Camille get solo killed by Fiora at level three?

Haters! Say something! You said Easy only benefited from the meta? Give Jinoo Camille and he still couldn't beat me!

This guy must wash his hair with Rejoice shampoo. How can he play with such confidence?

I'm dying. Bathing Dog and the Imperial mutts just got their faces slapped swollen.

Champion counters? NO! It was a gap in player skill!

Seeing Jinoo's Camille get solo-killed right from the start, countless Imperial mutts and LGD fans who had expected Jinoo to stomp Chu Ran with Camille this game completely lost it.

What the hell, was Jinoo an actor? He couldn't even beat a former RNG waterboy top laner?

What kind of garbage top laners did LGD hire? I still don't understand why they let Mrain go.

Sword Immortal? Sword Immortal my ass. Getting stomped like this, how much did Pan Jie pay you to throw? You must've made a killing off this hype, huh?

If LGD lost today, Pan Jie would probably book a five-star hotel. Until Jinoo sat at the table, nobody would dare touch their chopsticks.

Investigate him! This absolutely had to be investigated!

I'm laughing my ass off. The Imperial mutts and their classic actor accusations.

They just refused to admit Easy was stronger than Jinoo.

The livestream room's bullet comments erupted into an uproar.

Backstage at EDG, Abu and the others were stunned for a moment before breaking into applause and cheers.

As for Mouse—

His eyes were vacant. The heart that had only just begun to stir again had now—completely died.

Jinoo's greatest contribution this match was raising Chu Ran's market value.

If Zz1tai had allowed Chu Ran to first make a name for himself in the LPL, then today's match would make him famous overnight.

At the LPL Commentary Desk, Miller and Guan Zeyuan both jolted, looking at each other. Clearly, they had not expected this situation.

"Player Easy played far too well. It's honestly unbelievable—Jinoo's Camille was simply solo killed in lane. So it looks like the issue isn't the champion, but the player."

As Guan Zeyuan finished speaking, Miller felt the air around him grow tense. Looking to the side, he discovered a little chubby guy gnawing on his hand with a flushed face.

"Oh! Camille and Fiora have both TP'd back to lane, and the minion wave is pushing back! Jinoo's Camille used her E Skill to kick in, deliberately missing to bait out Fiora's W!"

"But Player Easy directly predicted Camille's second Hookshot position—QW! Counter-control!"

Hiss—!

Witnessing this, Miller, Guan Zeyuan, and countless viewers all sucked in a breath of cold air.

So Fiora could be played against Camille like this?

Looking at it this way, it wasn't Camille countering Fiora. It was Fiora countering Camille instead.

Seeing himself get counter-controlled again, Jinoo was stunned, his face utterly miserable.

AE1A—two basic attacks landed instantly. The vital on Camille's upper right shattered, granting movement speed. Even though Camille used Q1's speed boost to retreat, Chu Ran could still continue chasing.

He stuck right to her face. At that point, Camille's W, Tactical Sweep, was practically useless.

Jinoo gritted his teeth, his back turning cold as he hurriedly retreated. But without Flash or his E Skill, there was no way he could escape Chu Ran's Fiora.

Especially since Chu Ran's Fiora could gain speed by breaking vitals!

"It's over! Jinoo's Camille! It looks like she's about to be solo killed again!"

Following Miller's cry, on the top-lane game screen, Chu Ran's Fiora raised her blade and brought it down inside the turret, cleanly taking Camille's head before leaving in style.

Judging from the HP remaining, it was as if his health had been locked in place.

HP: 23

A close-up of Fiora's HP appeared before everyone, leaving them dumbfounded as another wave of hot discussion broke out both on-site and in the livestream room.

"Solo kill! Another solo kill! Is this Easy? Even Jinoo, who bears the title of Sword Immortal, is nothing more than this before him."

"That's right. Your Sword Immortal title has not earned my recognition. Easy is a terrifying rookie top laner, a treasure EDG had no idea where they dug up."

Hearing Miller's words, Guan Zeyuan signaled to him with his eyes.

Where else could he have come from?

RNG, of course.

Seeing Chu Ran score another solo kill, Uzi's little fatty face turned even redder. He hurriedly pulled out his phone and deleted the Weibo post he had made earlier, afraid it would come back to haunt him after the match. What he did not know was that Chu Ran had already taken screenshots and recorded all his actions in a notebook.

"Ah—shit!"

In LGD's Player Booth, Jinoo let out a hysterical scream like a pig being slaughtered.

"Chen You, I'm seriously your father. Are you going to blame the jungle gap now?" Eimy and the others were numb.

Their lanes had been fighting tooth and nail, yet the good news from top lane kept coming.

How the hell were they supposed to play this?

"How about we surrender at twenty?" Ping Ye Ling took the lead in suggesting. He violently shook his head. Their bot lane could not open up a breakthrough, and against EDG, they had originally expected their top lane to carry because Chu Ran was a rookie—and because Chu Ran had trash-talked LGD on stream.

It was supposed to kill two birds with one stone, but instead, Chu Ran had slapped them across the face.

"Even if we lose, I'm going to teach this Ran Chu a lesson. Chen You, don't panic. I'll come gank for you later."

Hearing Eimy's words, Jinoo opened his mouth, but ultimately did not speak the words in his heart.

He was afraid Eimy's Lee Sin would come over and give Fiora a Double Kill.

Then he really did give her a Double Kill.

"No, Chen You, where was your Ultimate Ability? Where the hell was your ult?" Eimy stared at his dark gray screen, his face turning the color of pig liver from rage.

Jinoo froze, his expression somewhat dazed. "He blocked it with W, then he got One Second Four Breaks, and then... there was no then."

"Xiba smida!"

Staring at the 7:54 timestamp in the upper right corner, Eimy's face was deeply flushed.

This was no longer just about losing the match. Once today's game ended, he would truly become Chu Ran's background prop.

Seeing the good news from top lane, Imp and the others wore extremely complicated expressions.

They were tired. Just end it all.

Countless Imperial mutts and LGD fans fell silent. EDG fans' words were like Garen building Lord Dominik's Regards, leaving their defenses shattered and speechless.

Thirteen minutes into the match.

Chu Ran TP'd down for the second dragon fight and cut Imp down in three slashes, making Imp sit bolt upright in the Player Booth.

They successfully traded one for four. Chu Ran's Fiora picked up another kill, while Pawn and Deft immediately took off as well.

"Nice! Brother Ran, 6666."

"From now on, you're the Sword Immortal, Little Ran."

"Why not call him sword man, smida~"

In an instant, EDG's team voice chat was filled with laughter and joy, while LGD's side was utterly silent.

Uzi had also been silenced at the Commentary Desk, feeling a stifling pressure in his chest.

Damn it, if he had known LGD was this bad, he would not have come to be this damn commentator. This was beyond humiliating.

Especially after watching Chu Ran Carry two games in a row, he was even more furious.

Next, relying on Chu Ran's powerful Fiora, EDG took the Rift Herald and pushed down the first top turret. They swapped lanes to split-push the first bottom turret, conquering territory all the way. Jinoo's Camille was solo killed by Chu Ran twice more in the side lane, effectively removing Camille from the game entirely.

At twenty-two minutes, the gold gap had widened to 8,000. EDG proactively started Baron Nashor, and LGD did not dare come over at all. They could only give it up and defend their base.

"Eh? What does EDG want? They want one wave."

"My god! EDG's advantage is far too huge. Caitlyn put down her traps, and LGD's entire team didn't dare approach. Viktor and Fiora were pulling the waves in the top and bottom lanes respectively. LGD made a desperate attempt and directly engaged on EDG's three players in mid."

"But Fiora and Viktor arrived very quickly. Fiora and Viktor's damage is just too high. Imp was cut down by Easy again after only a few slashes. The healing field came out and even saved Deft's Caitlyn."

"Beautiful! In that case, we can congratulate EDG."

In LGD's Player Booth, Godv and the others watched in despair as EDG bulldozed through and destroyed their Nexus turrets. All of them were beginning to hit red temperature.

It was normal enough for LGD to lose, but the pre-match hype had been so enormous, and they had talked so much trash. Then, once Chu Ran—the center of all that hype—took the stage, they were beaten into idiots.

Neither they nor LGD fans could accept that.

They got humiliated outside the game and humiliated inside the game too. Had LGD truly never recovered after returning from Paris in Season 5?

Bang!

At 23 minutes and 32 seconds, the screen froze, and the winner of this deciding game was suddenly revealed!

"Congratulations to EDG!!"

Miller shouted loudly.

"Congratulations to EDG. After falling behind by one game, they brought in Player Easy, and Player Easy's eye-catching performances over the next two games truly left us in awe."

Guan Zeyuan also sighed. "He's simply too strong. The waves behind drive the waves ahead; each wave is stronger than the last. Rookie Easy's performance today has shown us an EDG with an entirely new style."

As Miller and Guan Zeyuan's voices lingered around the Commentary Desk, Uzi was cursing like mad inside, and he only felt that their voices were particularly noisy.

"Xiao Hu isn't here, damn it!"

Uzi desperately needed Xiao Hu's—thighs right now, but he was extremely annoyed as he looked at Guan Zeyuan sitting beside him.

Whatever. He could not worry about that now. He needed an outlet, and Guan Zeyuan would do.

Bang!

Hiss—!

Guan Zeyuan: ???

He had originally been passionately commentating when he suddenly felt a pain coming from his thigh.

You animal! I only teased you a few times. When you played Lucian Jungler, you disgusted me so much, and I never even came after you for it. Now you were directly making a personal attack, huh?

Fine, fine. So this was how you wanted to play?

The on-site audience and livestream room viewers knew nothing of what had happened at the Commentary Desk. Bullet comments flooded the livestream room in neat rows.

66666, teaching him from both sides. The Optimistic Family was behaving now.

The Optimistic Family couldn't stay optimistic anymore. They'd been beaten into red temperature.

Change their name to the Pessimistic Family, hahaha.

After watching this match, I lit three cigarettes and still couldn't understand why RNG let a top laner like this go.

Nonsense. It was because he offended the God. Like I said, if you offend the God in RNG, you still want to play matches? You know Wuxin, right? Once the God arrived, he went straight into prison.

Wuxin's matter was Mata's fault. He gave him no face at all, bluntly saying Wuxin was bad.

And Mata had the nerve to talk after playing Wind Speaker Zyra?

Stop talking. Divine Punishment might come soon. Be careful or your account will be gone.

After the match ended, the entire internet was abuzz, and major forums had already kicked off a wave of trending searches.

In EDG's Player Booth, Meiko removed his headset and loudly praised, "Brother Ran's Fiora has earned Tian Ye's recognition."

"You're killing me." Chu Ran laughed, then smiled at Ale when he noticed his gaze.

It had to be said, Ale really was not good enough.

He had little impact in favorable games, and he simply wandered around in unfavorable ones.

Something would go wrong sooner or later if this continued. It was only because LGD's Eimy had been even more absurd today that Ale's performance had been covered up.

"Little Ran, where are we eating today? Brother Yuan Shuo said he's treating."

"Brother Hekui, that isn't something we need to think about. We only need to win matches. Manager Abu has more to think about, so let him treat us later."

"Time to shake hands, Brother Ran."

Arriving at LGD's Player Booth, Chu Ran and the others walked straight over, while LGD's players all focused their gazes directly on Chu Ran.

Jinoo's face was pale. Today, Chu Ran had beaten him into utter disgrace.

Teaching him from both sides had at least wiped out a third of his value.

During the handshake, seeing Jinoo staring intently at him, Chu Ran quietly moved his lips beside his ear, causing Jinoo's pale face to immediately turn red.

Xiba!

Watching Chu Ran's back view, Jinoo wanted to punch this bastard to death. You newborn East Dawn!

Red Temperature Value +154

Red Temperature Value +267

After the handshakes were over, Deft and the others all looked curiously at Chu Ran. Meiko was the first to be unable to suppress his curiosity. "Brother Ran, what did you say to Jinoo just now?"

"Hehe, I was merely testing the results of my Korean studies."

"What?"

Chu Ran smiled and waved his hand. "I only told him that his Fiora and Camille were as bad as a Silver player's."

"..."

Deft and the others gave him a thumbs up, feeling that Chu Ran must have had some serious ability to survive intact until now.

A moment later, amid the cheerful atmosphere backstage at EDG, the MVP result for the third game came out. It still went to Chu Ran. Although Pawn and Deft had also performed well this game, the shock Chu Ran gave the viewers was on another level.

Replacing Mouse and taking two consecutive MVPs made many EDG fans cheer.

Of course, quite a few people also felt sorry for Mouse. There was even already a Weibo trending post titled #Goodbye, Mouse!#.

Immediately afterward, Yu Shuang invited Chu Ran to the interview area, and many viewers remained in the livestream room to watch.

Not many people liked watching post-match interviews, except Chu Ran's.

At that moment, in LGD's backstage area, Imp also saw Chu Ran's figure through the screen and vaguely felt a bad premonition.

At the interview area, after Yu Shuang and Chu Ran introduced themselves to the camera, they immediately got to the point.

"Hello, Player Easy. Congratulations on defeating LGD today and winning the match. What do you think was the biggest reason your team was able to win today?"

Facing Yu Shuang's question, many viewers widened their eyes, eagerly awaiting Chu Ran's answer.

Chu Ran pondered for a moment, then gave the camera a shy smile.

"I think..."

"Other than the top lane factor, another reason was the bot lane. Our bot lane was still a bit stronger. Imp's performance today was just a tiny bit inferior to Deft's."

Seeing Chu Ran pinch a tiny gap between his right thumb and index finger, Imp's entire face instantly flushed red.

At that moment, he was even redder than Uzi!

Imp's roar rang through all of LGD, deafening enough to make Godv and the others jump.

"Xiba!!"

"Ah, shit!!"

"I'm inferior to Deft? He said I'm inferior to Deft? Fuck, Deft barely ever beat me! Xiba, xiba, xiba!"

"Does he not have eyes? How am I inferior to Deft? I have a championship. What does Deft have?"

"Deft! He! Is! A! Dumbass!"
