Chapter 106 - LPL Top Order Heritage
The crocodile, with little health left, chose to return to the city.

In the middle lane, IG scored a 0-for-2 exchange.

Jack's Lucian was almost replaced because he attacked the tower too early, but fortunately he used flash to divert the hatred of the defensive tower in time.

KT, on the other hand, paid the price with the lives of Tsar and Thresh.

In the front of KT, only Annie and Gragas were left.

On the high ground, a whirlwind rose into the sky from an IG eye position!

The prehistoric giant crocodile is back!
Even without his ultimate, Yuan Shen's development is not something that Lulu and Gragas can control.

Rushing into the field recklessly, and with the help of Ryze's output, Annie died instantly.

Score's Gragas used a reverse ER and escaped directly into the fountain.

The familiar combo and the familiar figure made Yuan Shen seem to remember an old friend.

The economic gap exceeded 10,000, and KT no longer had any hope of turning the tables.

"That's too fierce, Guigui!"

"Crocodile and Ryze, MVP can only choose between these two."

"I think it's Crocodile. Whether it's setting the pace in the early and mid-game or that one-on-four wave, it's so crucial!"

"Crocodile, PDD, Shenchao and Big Brother are all very good at Crocodile. I didn't expect that after they retired, we still have a domestic top laner who can do this..."

Xiaoxiao felt a little emotional.

PDD in S2, Shenchao in S3, and Gogoing in S4 are all very good at crocodile!

And this year, in S5, Yuan Shen's crocodile filled this gap.

Born in OMG, he took over the job from big brother Gogoing and was rated as the world's No. 1 top laner by Riot!

There are so many similarities between him and Gogoing!

The Legacy of LPL Top Order

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yuan is better than Ssumday in terms of positional strength, understanding of the minion line, ability to defend against ganks, and even the ability to carry the game!"

Wawa also felt a little emotional.

LPL's domestic top laners are often at a natural disadvantage when facing Korean teams.

The details of laning are unmatched.

In terms of single-lane ability, there is no comparison.

Only the team battle effect can barely compete.

But the appearance of Yuan Shen gave LPL audiences confidence in domestic top laners!
South Korea’s top laner is not invincible!
We in LPL also have top laners who can carry the game!
Twenty-eight minutes into the game, KT's crystal exploded.

"Congratulations to IG!! They won the second place in the group stage and are currently ranked first in the group with a score of 2-0!"

"Thirteen to zero, KT didn't get a single kill!"

"Wait, didn't you notice?? KT didn't even take down a dragon or a tower!"

"Swallowing KT with Linglong Tower, IG is so strong now??"

The atmosphere in LPL's live broadcast room is still lively.

Because of LCK's previous world championship results of two championships and one runner-up, many viewers are paying attention to the LCK region.

In terms of global broadcast volume, LCK's popularity is almost comparable to LPL.

The strength of the KT team is obvious to all. In the LCK, they surpassed KOO. If they had not been inferior to KOO in points throughout the year, they would actually be the second seed.

This is KT, which can play five full games with SKT!

Before the game, everyone felt that although IG could win, KT would not be completely powerless.

This kind of game with zero dragons, zero towers and zero kills is really rare!

There have been shutouts in previous world championships, but this is the first time that Linglong Tower and the shutout have been achieved!
Even the wild card team has never been so miserable.

Ssumday looked gloomy after losing the game.

The other KT members also looked at each other in bewilderment.

Just half an hour ago, they were still happily discussing how to deal with IG, allowing the audience to recognize who is the top division again.

But now, they are silent.

This not only broke the worst record of the KT team, but also broke the worst performance record of the LCK team in the world game.

They can already imagine what the domestic public opinion is like now.

Due to the maturity of Japanese and Korean fan culture, their trolls are even more terrifying.

It is common for Korean trolls to send you razor blades and dead rats. They may even throw water bottles at your book signing events, throw rocks at your face, or even throw sulfuric acid at you to disfigure you.

The five members of KT were all a little confused.

Completely numb.

On the other hand, the five players of IG had almost no fluctuations. IG was very strong, and all five of them knew it.

The game is over, but the impact continues.

……

"You can't let go of his Crocodile. Even if you let go of Noxus and Fiora Riven, you can't let go of Crocodile. His Crocodile is the strongest."

Looking at the hot water that MaRin brought over, Ssumday thanked her and took it.

Although the game was over, he hadn't recovered yet.

The pressure is too great.

He had never felt so bad.

Totally seen through.

“His alligator proficiency is really high.”

Smeb expressed his approval.

"Speaking of which, Looper told me before that there is a very powerful crocodile in LPL, called the No. 1 Crocodile in Southeast Asia. I wonder if it is him."

MaRin rubbed his brows to indicate that he had a headache.

Smeb and Sunday are fine, but how come there is another operational top laner?

For an old man like him, the most annoying thing is the operation.

"Not only the crocodile, but also Ryze..."

Bengi came closer and looked at MaRin with some concern.

“Sang Hyuk hasn’t spoken in a long time.”

They actually prepared a lot for this world championship.

This is true for Ryze mid lane, Riven mid lane, Olaf mid lane, all of them.

Including MaRin's Rambo, which can also be used as one of the trump cards.

But they also have major shortcomings.

First, they can't use the two heroes, Gangplank and Iron Man.

Bang's proficiency in Iron Man is very poor, and MaRin and Faker, neither of them can play Gangplank.

Second, they are not actually very good at playing top lane core.

When Faker is present, Bengi's first choice for ganking is always the middle lane.
It’s just that the individual strength and team coordination ability of these five people are so strong, so few teams can really pose a threat to them.

Compared to SKT during the MSI period, they are now stronger and more mature.

But compared to IG, their preparation seemed very inadequate.

The people in their own business know their own business, and they will not bet on whether IG will play Iron Man.

But based on the current information, IG can play Gangplank, and play it very well!

Even Rookie can play Ryze with great proficiency.

IG's nuclear tactics are already quite mature and complete.

Although the strength of the bottom lane is weak, it is not easy to completely defeat the bottom half of IG.

IG will be their biggest opponent in this World Championship.

Everyone in SKT feels this way.

But even if he racked his brains, Faker couldn't understand why anyone else besides him could pick Ryze.

It is obvious that Rookie's proficiency in Ryze is no worse than his, and he must have practiced it in advance.

This hit him hard.

Since his debut, he has defeated countless talented mid-lane players.

But South Korea has never lacked talent.

……

"Yuan'er, I wouldn't even dare to think about it if it weren't for you."

Rookie was lying on the sofa with a mysterious smile on his lips.

no way.

So cool!
If Yuan Shen hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have thought that the hero Ryze was so powerful.

During the summer season, Ryze always played top lane.

The mid laner is basically unavailable.

At the World Championship, after Azar and Syndra were weakened, Ryze became a very good choice.
