The TES players entered the competition venue and went straight to the lounge to prepare for the game.

After a moment, Zhan Ma called out, "Okay, it's almost time, get ready to go on stage, everyone."

Everyone in TES put down their phones and stood up.

Zhan Ma continued, "If we win this game, we'll be able to advance to the finals, where we can sit back and watch the fight. Come on! TES will win!"

"Must win!"

On the other side, the JDG players were also preparing to go on stage. Several people stood up and gathered together.

Kanavi said: "We are not worse than TES. We should show our best to prove ourselves. JDG will win!"

At the commentary booth at the game, Guan Zeyuan, Jide and Rita were ready.

Guan Zeyuan explained:

"The upcoming semi-finals will be between TES and JDG. Both teams are in good shape now and can easily beat other teams."

Remember to continue: "Today, whether it is the mid lane, jungle, or bottom lane, they are all the focus of the battle. The players on both sides are among the best in their respective positions."

Rita teased, "You didn't seem to mention going on the road, do you have any opinions about 369?"

I remember saying quickly, "Of course I don't have any opinions. I am very fair. I forgot to mention the top lane battle. The top lane battle is also the focus battle."

Players from both teams came on the court, Lu Yi sat down at his seat, and the BP stage of the first game began.

BAN hero stage,

TES: Aphelios, Quesanti, Monkey King
JDG: Sylas, Akali, Zeli

Guan Zeyuan commented: "JDG is targeting Yishen. They started by banning two mid laners. But there is no need to worry about Yishen's hero pool. There will definitely be no problem."

Remember to answer, "At the same time, both sides are targeting the bottom lane and banning the two strongest ADCs. Now they need to choose other ones. When they have these two heroes, BP is quite simple. It's just one for each person. Now that they don't have them, it depends on their respective hero pools."

Entering the hero selection stage, JDG on the blue side got the Dark Lord on the first floor.

Rita commented: "Here it comes! Left-handed Syndra, very confident, got Syndra on the first floor."

TES locked down Darkseid and Wei on the first and second floors.

Guan Zeyuan commented: "If I'm not mistaken, this Annie should be in the middle lane. This version of Annie is really good. Her bear has high damage output."

JDG got the combination of Lucian and Nami on the second and third floors.

I remember the commentator said: "The classic combination is here, the Luna combination, which is very strong in laning and teamfighting. It seems that JDG and TES chose to ban an OP each, and they were also prepared in advance."

TES got Varus on the third floor and entered the second round of BP.

TES also banned Crocodile and Gnar.

JDG also banned Jayce and Gragas.

I remember the commentator said: "Liang, your team is targeting the top lane, but the top lane hasn't been released yet. It's weird. Top Esports actually kept the top lane and didn't release it. What's the plan? Is Wulou giving the top lane a pheasant? Isn't this too crazy?"

TES locked the Deep Sea Titan on the fourth floor, and then it was JDG's turn. JDG got Sejuani and Weapon Master on the fourth and fifth floors.

I remember exclaiming: "It's true that the fifth floor is giving the top lane counter position. Now the opponent has Master Yi. What hero should Shan Ji use to fight Master Yi? I think there are still many heroes that are easy to fight against in the laning phase..."

The director switched the camera back and forth between the top laners of both teams, giving each side a shot, and then switching back and forth like this.

It creates a sense of a fateful confrontation, as if two peerless masters are about to compete with each other.

At this moment, TES locked on Sion.

This Sion locked on and completely confused the audience and commentators.

In the official live broadcast room, the comments were all:

[What do you mean? You picked this hero as your last pick?]

[Hahahaha, Shan Ji is really something. You grabbed the hero last, right? You grabbed the hero that 369 likes.]

【It's quite humorous. 】

[Yes, awesome! Brother Shan Ji is awesome! ]

The lineups of both teams have been determined:

[Format: BO5]

【TES】VS【JDG】（0:0）

Top lane: [Undead War God] VS [Weapon Master]

Jungle: [Piltover Enforcer] VS [Wrath of the North]

Mid: [Daughter of Darkness] VS [Dark Leader]

ADC: [Arrow of Punishment] VS [Holy Lance Ranger]

Support: [Deep Sea Titan] VS [Tidecaller Mermaid]

The director gave a close-up of the pheasant, which was shrinking its head, as if it didn't want to be seen.

In fact, Zhan Ma gave him a chance just now, deliberately letting him choose slowly and make his choice after seeing what hero the opponent was.

But when he saw 369's Master Yi, Shan Ji got scared and it was he who wanted to choose Sion.

There is no other way. The coach can't help him choose a hero he doesn't want. If he can't beat him, he will become the coach's hero.
When they were going down, Zhan Ma reminded them: "Shan Ji, you have to work hard and don't let down the team."

The pheasant man was confused. Is this something that can be achieved by just trying harder?

Entering the game screen, Xiaotian began to lead the pace: "Mountain Chicken, you stabilize the laning in the top lane. In fact, I feel that Sion has an advantage against Master Yi in the early stage. What do you think?"

Shan Ji responded: "I think... it's OK."

Although he also felt that the early stage was not difficult to fight, he did not dare to brag.

Xiaotian continued, "I will interact more with the middle and bottom lanes in front, especially the middle lane, which should be easier to catch. As for the bottom lane, wait for me to come, and you will have a hard time fighting."

Ah Shui said: "I will shoot him to death with an arrow, ruthlessly."

Meiko warned: "Be careful of Lucian's attack at level 2. We can't beat him."

Ah Shui responded: "I know, it's not a big problem."

At level one, both TES and JDG chose defensive positions.

No trouble.

The first wave of soldiers came out, and Lu Yi returned to the line to start fighting.

In this laning match against Syndra, Annie has short arms and will definitely suffer a little.

Now it’s time to train your positioning. As long as your positioning is good, there won’t be any big problems.

Lu Yi dodged left and right. Now Annie's E skill has a shield. If he really can't avoid it, using the E skill to get the shield can also offset some of the damage.

In the top lane, Shan Ji's Sion faced 369's Master Yi. Master Yi wanted to suppress Shan Ji from level , but he didn't give him the chance until level . He used his Q skill to last hit and harass, not giving Master Yi the chance to stack his passive.

In the bottom lane, the situation was relatively peaceful at level 1, but the moment it reached level 2, Lucian used E and neg tactics to entangle the opponent.

A little over three minutes into the game, Xiaotian marked the location of the river crab in the top lane, meaning that he was going to go over to take a river break.

The rhythm of peaceful development in the top lane is like this, so Lu Yi needs to find a way to push the line, otherwise he will not be able to support Xiaotian.

So Lu Yi stepped forward to put pressure on Syndra, making it seem like the jungler was coming.

Sure enough, the opponent's Syndra was fooled and began to retreat. Lu Yi took the opportunity to push the line of troops over. At the same time, Monkey King and Wei met each other above.

This monkey obviously also came here to compete for the Rift Herald.

However, Zuoshou gave the signal to the signal man in the middle lane, asking Kanavi not to go over: "The opposite Annie went over first."

Kanavi just felt incredible that he had no line control in the middle lane.

In this case, he had no choice but to move forward.

Zuo Shou was also speechless. He originally had the lane rights, but he was really scared just now. He thought that if the jungler came to the middle lane, Annie could flash to cooperate with the jungler, then he would be in trouble.

After a short interlude, the game continued.

Lu Yi needs to continue developing this hero to reach level six before he will have enough ways to cause trouble.

Zuo Shou continued to look for opportunities to consume Lu Yi, and only had a chance to kill him alone when he reached level six.

However, Lu Yi's positioning is very flexible. He uses his Q skill to kill the minion, moves to avoid Syndra's Q skill, and even finds time to give Syndra a basic attack.

At this time, Annie's advantage is very prominent, that is, her basic attack distance is longer than that of ordinary mages.

Therefore, many times Annie can use this to consume the opponent.

At the same time, Annie's Q skill can restore mana by killing minions.

He throws out his Q skill one after another, and the speed of pushing the line of troops is not slow.

All of Zuo Shou's skills are used to consume the enemy's troops, which naturally leads to his inability to push the line.

It's fine if the skill hits, but it's a bit uncomfortable if the skill is dodged.

Rita commented: "Yishen's positioning is really flexible. I feel like my left hand was fooled by him. He missed many of my skills."

Jide agreed, "That's right. In the middle lane, Zuoshou didn't gain the advantage we thought. Instead, he was pushed back. This is not right."

The game time is five and a half minutes, and Lu Yi's Annie is about to reach level six.

However, he hasn't bought any equipment yet, and Syndra's health is relatively high, so it's unrealistic to kill Syndra instantly.

He chose to push the middle lane troops towards the defensive tower and then pretend to retreat.

In fact, Lu Yi walked up, wanting to catch the enemy by surprise.

I want to give 369 a surprise.

"369, here I come!"

On the JDG side, Zuo Hand was giving a signal in the middle lane, telling his teammates to be careful that Annie was not in the middle lane. Although he felt it was unlikely that she was going to support roaming, it was better to give a signal for the sake of caution.

In the top lane, Sion and Master Yi were fighting fiercely, and as his level increased, Master Yi became more and more powerful.

Suddenly, at the moment when the Weapon Master jumped on his face, Pheasant's Sion used his ultimate skill!
"This is war!"

Sion's ultimate skill knocked the Master Yi away. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Yi went around from the triangle grass!

Lu Yi chose to start with a Q skill, and the Weapon Master seemed to think that he would use his ultimate skill, so he gave up his flash and ran away.

But he was still controlled. Annie's Q skill is a directional skill. As long as it is launched, it will definitely hit in the end.

The weapon master was captured.

"Tibers!" A bear suddenly appeared on the Weapon Master's body and started to attack him crazily. Finally, Annie finished it off with a W and got the kill.

First blood broke out in the top lane, and Lu Yi's Annie got first blood.

[TES, GodYi (Daughter of Darkness) killed JDG, 369 (Master of Weapons)! ! ]

I remember the commentator said: "This wave was due to the top laner's carelessness. The mid laner had given the signal, but he didn't provide vision and fought with the opponent's Sion. Was he too excited?"

Guan Zeyuan commented: "It's possible. There must be something wrong with his handling of this wave. However, the mid lane allowed Annie to roam right now. I feel that there is also a problem with the mid lane matchup."

"Neither jungler has ever been to the middle lane. Logically, Syndra should be easy to beat. Is it because of the difference in laning skills?"

Lu Yi returned to the city for supplies and TPed out to continue laning.

At this time on the JDG side, Zuo Shou and 369 looked at each other, and both seemed to be talking.

One of them felt that the opponent had problems in the laning phase, so he actually let Annie roam the top lane.

The other party definitely has a problem with his awareness, and he can still be caught and killed even after giving signals.

But no one said it out loud, but just endured it.

The game continued, and Zuoshou reminded his teammates: "I have TP, you can call me if you want to cause trouble."

Kanavi was already making arrangements. He first got the second red and reached level six.

Now the bottom lane has a chance and neither side has gone back, so the condition is not very good.

So Monkey ran straight to the bottom lane and followed the soldiers into the bushes.
Rita commented: "Here it comes. Monkey King chose the bottom lane for his first move. Now Top Esports' bottom lane hasn't reacted yet. They didn't know Monkey King was coming!"

“Is Lucian going to give me a flaw? Yes! Lucian was hit by Titan’s hook and followed up with a basic attack, but! Monkey King came out and used his ultimate to cause havoc in the Heavenly Palace!”

At this time, Meiko on the TES side hurriedly said: "Go, sell me out, you go first!"

A Shui did not hesitate and chose to retreat directly. Monkey still had a big move waiting for him.

So Titan's head was taken by the monkey.

[JDG, Kanavi (Monkey King) killed TES, Meiko (Deep Sea Titan)! ! ]

I remember the commentator said: "This time, Monkey King ganked the bottom lane without giving up a kill. It was really unnecessary. We all know that Kanavi's Monkey King is very good. His Monkey King can kill the center in a team fight."

Guan Zeyuan agreed: "Yes, his Monkey King is really unique. In fact, it's not just Monkey King. Why did Top Esports take Wei? I think they didn't want to give it to Kanavi. His Wei is really strong."

"If the Ruined King hadn't been weakened in this version, I think he would have taken it and killed everyone with it!"

The game continued. After completing the GANK, Monkey King wanted to kill the little dragon.

But Xiaotian came over and chose to appear in the opponent's field of vision, just to tell the opponent that this little dragon cannot be taken.

Monkey King didn't force himself this time. He didn't have his ultimate skill now, and if he forced a team fight, problems would easily arise.

Xiaotian naturally doesn’t know how to fight, so he just drags the situation out and doesn’t let the opponent hit him.

Eight minutes into the game, the Rift Herald refreshes.

Xiaotian came over to provide vision.

He was seen commanding: "The opponent's Monkey King's ultimate skill hasn't cooled down yet, so let's just attack him. If they come over, we can just start a fight."

Xiaotian’s thinking was very clear, and he caught the enemy off guard.

So Lu Yi moved towards the Baron pit. In the top lane, Shan Ji's Sion was ready to start. He could rush over directly from the top lane with his ultimate.

The pressure is put on JDG.

I remember the commentator said: "Now Top Esports is clearly targeting the Rift Herald, knowing that your Monkey King doesn't have his ultimate. What should JDG do? Should they take this teamfight or give up?"

"It seems like they are planning to pick up the group. Go ahead, they are all gone!"

JDG's mid, top and jungle players walked towards the Baron pit together, seemingly planning to join the team fight.

On the TES side, Lu Yi had already noticed the opponent's actions, so he said, "I'm going to cheat first, look at my position."

Lu Yi entered the river bushes and ambushed them. His teammates dragged the Rift Herald over and were ready to cooperate at any time. (End of this chapter)
