Entering the BP phase, TES is on the red side and DK is on the blue side.

During the BAN phase, DK targeted the middle lane and banned the Ruined King, Ornn, and Maokai.

TES banned Aphelios, Kaisa and Caitlyn.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "DK chose to target TES's top and jungle, which I didn't expect. I thought they would target the mid lane. But then again, Yi Shen's hero pool is too deep, you will never
Maybe we can count on limiting him through BP.”

Riia agreed: "Yes, DK has a reason for targeting the top lane. It seems that they don't want to let Shan Ji hang around and want to break through from the top lane. Now it depends on the hero selection of both sides. The most important one should be the mid laner. The mid laners of both sides are the pillars of their respective teams."

Enter the hero selection phase.

The blue team's DK locked onto the Dawn Goddess on the first floor.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "From the previous qualifying matches and combined with the public games, the support player Suzuki has a high win rate. In the previous game today, both sides also fought for Suzuki. It seems that everyone is optimistic about this hero."

Remember to answer, "Yes, judging from the hero's attributes, Shuguang's basic attributes are quite high, commonly known as numerical monsters, and his control is simple and direct, which is an advantage, and it is not easy to make outrageous mistakes."

On the TES side, Zhan Ma had already come behind Shan Ji and asked:
"Which hero are you going to pick in the top lane? The opponent is targeting the top lane in this game, and I think we can pick it early."

TES's counter position must be given to the mid laner, so for the top laner, it is also a good thing to get it earlier, so as to avoid the hero they want being snatched away or being banned in the second round.

Shan Ji replied: "No problem."

Zhan Ma recommended: "I told you to practice Sword Demon before, you should practice it, this version of Sword Demon is invincible."

Shan Ji was a little hesitant after hearing this. He knew that the Aatrox was very strong. In the casual games and training matches, the opponents he met were all crazy about using the Aatrox.

However, his proficiency is limited, and he is not yet at the point where he can get it whenever he has it.

Now is such a good opportunity...

"I got it!" Shan Ji locked onto the Sword Demon on the first floor.

TES got Sejuani on the second floor again.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "TES showed their swords! They locked onto Aatrox on the first floor. They are very brave. In this version, Aatrox is quite strong both in laning and in teamfights. There are not many heroes that he is afraid of."

The director gave a close-up of the pheasant, which looked a little excited and nervous.

The director turned the camera to DK's top laner Kingen.

It turned out that Kingen was laughing, not only that, but everyone else in DK including the coach was laughing.

Rita muttered, "It seems that DK is very happy about Shan Ji's choice of Sword Demon. What's the reason?"

I remember speculating: "Could it be that they have some information, such as Shan Ji's proficiency in Aatrox? That's a very fatal thing. If a version is very popular, a T0 hero, and you don't dare to take it when the opponent releases it, then it will be difficult to do subsequent BP."

"But if you take it out and find that you can't play it at all, that would be more serious than not daring to take it out!"

It's DK's turn to choose, and DK locks Viktor and Miss Fortune on the second and third floors.

TES locked Lucian on the third floor and entered the second round of BP.

TESBAN dropped Gnar and Crocodile.

DK chose to ban Nami and Renata.

Guan Zeyuan analyzed: "DK banned Nami and did not allow TES to form a Luna combination. At the same time, TES eliminated some heroes that might not be easy to play against Shan Ji. I think they have taken good care of the top lane."

TES locks Amumu on the fourth floor, it's DK's turn!

DK locked Centaur on the fourth floor, and then got Fiora on the fifth floor!

The moment Fiora locked on, the LCK fans at the scene were shocked.

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan was a little surprised: "DK also showed their swords. They chose to use Fiora. Among the popular top lane heroes, this hero should be the best one to deal with Aatrox!"

Jide agreed, "That's right. Sword Demon's two main output skills, Q and W, can be countered by Fiora with Laurent's Heart Eye Blade. Relatively speaking, Sword Demon is better at teamfighting, but not as good as Fiora in single laning and SOLO."

Rita continued: "So what should TES do now? I feel like DK's lineup is a trap, a trap set specifically for Aatrox. The double C Viktor and Miss Fortune are both very good heroes at defending towers."

"If Fiora is able to gain an advantage in the top lane, they can let Fiora play solo and win this game in this way."

On the TES side, Shan Ji's face looked a little ugly when he saw the opponent draw his sword.

The top laners who can show their skills in the competition, especially in the S game, are not ordinary and their proficiency must be good.

Zhan Ma asked: "What's the situation in your top lane now? Can you fight? The sword lady on the opposite side might be a little difficult to deal with."

Shan Ji was nervous. He knew that Fiora was not easy to deal with, but now he had already chosen Aatrox. Could he still get a refund?

This is impossible, so I'll just have to keep playing.

Zhan Ma also realized this problem, so he said, "Forget it, you should just continue playing. Be as careful as possible on the line and don't give the opponent any chances."

"I'll try my best." Shan Ji replied.

Suddenly, Lu Yi said, "You use Sejuani in the top lane, I'll play Aatrox, and you can pick a new jungler."

Pheasant and Warhorse were stunned. What was going on?

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan explained: "There is a problem with TES's hero selection now. They are still short of a mid laner, and time is running out before they can pick one."

"I don't think it's difficult to choose a hero for the mid-lane position. There's no doubt about Yishen's personal ability. It's probably because of overall considerations."

In the last three seconds, TES locked the big tree on the fifth floor!
The commentator was stunned.

Rita commented: "Traya? Now TES already has Sejuani as the jungler, is it a mid-lane Tristana, or a support Tristana?"

I remember analyzing it: "I think it's unlikely to be a mid laner, and it's unlikely to be a support. Do you want Amumu to play mid lane? I think Amumu can play jungle and Maokai can play support. This seems to be feasible."

"As for the mid laner, it would be... Aatrox. Although he is not suitable for the version, I personally believe in Yishen's ability."

Everyone is guessing now, and TES is also adjusting its lineup, changing it back and forth, as if deliberately trying to create trouble for DK.

Suddenly, the Sword Demon was switched to the middle lane, and TES stopped changing its lineup.

At this time, DK's top laner is Fiora and the middle laner is Viktor.

With only twenty-five seconds left in the countdown, DK chose to switch Fiora to the middle lane.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "What's going on? Is Fiora the mid laner or the top laner? DK is now playing a double game."

"As for TES, Aatrox is still in the middle. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that they will suddenly change the lineup at the last minute."

Rita expressed doubt: "Can Showmaker really play Fiora? It's doubtful. Besides, Fiora really needs a long line of soldiers to chase. If he is in the middle lane, the effect will be much worse than in the top lane."

Sure enough, when the countdown reached twenty-one seconds, DK changed its lineup again, with Fiora moving to the top lane and Viktor in the middle lane.

The lineup is confirmed: [Format: BO1]

【TES】VS【DK】（0:0）

Top: [Wrath of the North] VS [Unparalleled Sword Princess]

Jungle: [Twisted Treant] VS [Shadow of War]

Mid: [Darkborn Blade] VS [Mechanical Pioneer]

ADC: [Holy Lance Ranger] VS [Bounty Hunter]

Support: [Mummy of Death] VS [Goddess of Dawn]

Seeing the lineups of both sides, I remember the commentator said: "In this game, both sides were competing with each other in the BP stage, setting traps for each other. TES was very determined and did not change the lineup until the end. I feel that this lineup is a good choice for them."

Rita speculated: "Of course, it is also possible that DK's mid and top lanes will directly switch, but it will be a great test of the players' personal abilities."

Entering the game screen, Lu Yi's Aatrox chose Doran's Blade to go out.

[Ding! Detected that the target 'Showmaker' was killed by the host, the entry 'Weak Mark' is triggered, the host's laning suppression power increases by 10%]

[Ding! The subject 'Showmaker' is detected as a legendary player. The entry 'Legendary in full bloom' shows that there are 4 legendary players on the field. All attributes of all players on the field are increased by 20%, and all attributes of the host are increased by 40%. ]

[Ding! The host is detected to be using an unpopular routine, and the entry "Master of Whole Life" is triggered, increasing the host's overall attributes by 10%. ]

Quality Bureau!

Now TES has three legendary players, and the opponent has one Showmaker, which makes four!
All players in the field received a 20% increase in all attributes, which is an exaggerated improvement.

This means that there will be almost no very low-level mistakes in this game.

Xiao Tian began to set the pace: "I will focus on the bottom lane in this game. You guys should develop on your own in the middle and top lanes. They are not easy to deal with."

Shan Ji said: "I think we can target this Sword Lady."

Xiaotian refused decisively: "No, our mid and top are all AP, and they mainly deal with control. After Fiora buys Mercury Boots, we can't do anything to her. It's easy for her to control her."

Shan Ji can only withstand the pressure in the top lane by himself. There is no other way. In fact, it is more comfortable for Sejuani to fight against Fiora in the early stage and it is not difficult.

Although it seems that Sejuani's Q skill can also be countered by Fiora's W, Sejuani can use Q close to the target, leaving Fiora no time to react.

But it's different with Aatrox. His Q and W skills are too slow, especially his W skill. As long as the opponent's Fiora is proficient enough and practices with Aatrox a few more times, he can basically counter successfully every time.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "Both sides tended to be defensive at level 1, and neither wanted to cause trouble. The first round of buffs was about to be refreshed, and the troops were also coming out. The mid-top laning was the focus of this game."

When the first wave of soldiers arrived at the line, Lu Yi walked forward to test it out. Sure enough, Victor's style of play was more aggressive, and he wanted to come up and consume the opponent's energy at level one.

It is indeed difficult for the Sword Demon to deal with the long-arm at level 1. It is good enough to be able to last hit and develop, while minimizing your own losses as much as possible. The melee soldiers are low on health, and Lu Yi walks forward and kills three melee soldiers with one Q.

Victor took the opportunity to use AQA to consume the enemy's energy.

The second wave of soldiers came, and the stage of fighting for the second place began. Lu Yi continued to use the Q skill to make last hits.

Guan Zeyuan explained: "The mid-lane battle is visibly difficult to fight. Sword Demon is more comfortable in close combat. Facing a long-range mage, unless he has a big move at level 6, you can try to fight him."

"Before level 6, I felt there was no threat and I could only take the beating unilaterally."

In the top lane, Shan Ji's Sejuani is facing off against Fiora, and it's not difficult to beat him!

Now Shan Ji was very happy. At least before level 6, he was not at all inferior to Fiora.

Of course, you can't just Q up from a distance, that's asking for death.

As long as you don't take the initiative to attack, it will be comfortable to play defensive counterattacks.

"Brothers, I feel that the Fiora on the opposite side is not very good." Shan Ji said happily.

Ah Shui couldn't hold it in any longer: "Next time something like this happens, you should say it during the draft. Don't wait until we help you BP to avoid the opponent's strong position before you start saying such things."

Pheasant scratched his head: "Mine."

In the bottom lane, A Shui's laning phase is still very aggressive, and he will look for opportunities to consume the opponent's blood.

However, the female gunner on the opposite side was also quite skilled. While Ah Shui was using the Q skill to penetrate the soldiers and consume their health, the female gunner used a Q skill to kill the low-health soldier, and the soldier bounced onto Ah Shui, causing him to lose a lot of health.

Hang joked: "A Shui, be careful, don't let it be consumed in vain."

Three and a half minutes into the game, the soldiers in the middle lane were advancing towards Lu Yi. Lu Yi was now half health and had run out of supplies.

I remember the commentator said: "It's rare to see Yishen at such a big health disadvantage in the laning phase, although he didn't fall behind in terms of last-hitting."

Guan Zeyuan continued, “As long as you don’t get killed by a single player, don’t fall behind, and don’t lose your tower skin, it’s almost the same.”

Suddenly, Lu Yi saw the opportunity. This Viktor wanted to consume the enemy while last hitting, so he used E and followed up with AQA.

Lu Yi decisively used Q1 as if he wanted to use the Q skill to finish off the enemy, but suddenly used the E skill to move forward, closing the distance between him and Viktor. The low-health soldier in the middle was gone, so the Sword Demon's Q1 hit Viktor at the maximum distance and used a Hellfire Chain, hitting the target!

As Lu Yi walked forward, Viktor used W to control Lu Yi. The moment Lu Yi was controlled, he used Q2.

Just then, Viktor was pulled back by the Hellfire Chain, and Q2's sword hit him, dealing the highest damage.

Guan Zeyuan explained: "Although Viktor was the one who consumed the Sword Demon in the beginning, the damage of the Sword Demon after one set of attacks is much higher than Viktor's, so Viktor must be careful."

Victor did not use the supplies, and it seemed that his health was still more than half, which was better than Lu Yi's situation.

But this is just an illusion.

At this moment, the junglers of both sides met in the river on the top lane. They faced each other, gave up ganking the top lane, and moved away.

In the bottom lane, the soldiers pushed in front of the opposite defensive tower, and A Shui began to eat the tower skin.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "It's still a draw now, there's no rhythm, someone needs to open up the situation. At the moment, I think the middle lane may be the rhythm point."

"The Sword Demon's health is low right now. If we come with the jungler to catch him, and the Sword Demon is just in a state of excitement, he will probably be caught and killed."

Four and a half minutes into the game, Lu Yi's Sword Demon only has a quarter of his health left. Now Victor is ready to make a move and walks up to consume his opponent's health.

This time, Lu Yi pretended to retreat and suddenly attacked.

The Sword Demon used Q1, and Viktor used AQA at this time, so he chose to turn around!

This is to predict that the Sword Demon will use Q1E, and Lu Yi does intend to do so.

However, the Q1E of this Sword Demon is also different. If the E skill is released early or late, the effect will be completely different. Of course, the personal ability requirements for the player are also different.

Lu Yi is the type who releases his E late, so he can observe the opponent's movement to decide whether to use E to adjust the position. (End of this chapter)
