YBWYS

Chapter 147

The audience was in commotion--- Irelia, like Yasuo, were used quite often in normal ranked matches, but for regular professional competitions, it was very rare for a professional player to take it. It was quite surprising for Come Good Luck to take her.

"Isn't CK's Come Good Luck good at tank type champions? Why is he picking Irelia to scare me?" Little Fatty was confused.

"Lu Yue also plays Twisted Fate now." Lu Sicheng calmly and kindly reminded Little Fatty.

The whole team was silent, then they all had a relieved expression on their faces.

Ming god, with a folder in hand, held onto the back of Lu Sicheng's chair, bent over laughing. Though perhaps due to a guilty conscience, Lu Yue would usually hang around Ming god and run errands for him. But Ming god didn't seem to appreciate it too much; every time anyone mocked Lu Yue, Ming god was the one who laughed especially loud.

Tong Yao couldn't help feeling sympathetic to Lu Yue.

While ZGDX was joking around, the ban & pick phase ended. ZGDX was shocked by CK's Irelia pick. When the game officially started, Tong Yao somehow felt that Irelia would cause trouble for them.

In the end, it seemed that a woman's sixth sense is always accurate.

Especially when it was a premonition.

Since Irelia was rarely picked, ZGDX as a team hadn't spent much time studying her neither when playing skirmishes nor during their data analysis. Once Irelia was picked, ZGDX's players thought about her abilities and champion mechanics and then realized that she was truly an odd champion to challenge Rumble.

CK had prepared for this. They were mustering their true strength now that they had lost the first round.

Tong Yao, a bit concerned, couldn't help but remind her teammates at the beginning of the game: "Old K, you better be more watchful at top this round. I just feel that Come Good Luck isn't picking Irelia randomly. They're definitely planning something for top lane."

Old K agreed.

Indeed, at about 7 or 8 minutes into the game, CK's was at top. Old Cat thought he had a 2 to 1 advantage and it should be easy to take care of Irelia. He was too confident and didn't cast his ultimate in time, but fought all the way under the turret and died to Irelia before he could get away!

CK easily took first blood!

The situation wasn't looking good for ZGDX. Then Irelia held down Old K's Rek'Sai and prevented him from building tunnels. At the same time, Tong Yao kept pinging to inform her teammates that Xiao Hua had disappeared. Old K knew very well that Xiao Hua couldn't be going back to base, so the only reasonable assumption was that Xiao Hua was heading to top. However, Irelia was jumping around and wouldn't let Old K get away until Xiao Hua reappeared to strike Old K from behind. Xiao Hua took the second kill of the round.

Xiao Hua's Lissandra was a champion that could counter Tong Yao's Kassadin to begin with, now that Lissandra had a kill.

Both top and mid lanes were falling behind.

Given the current state of the game, unless the ad was strong enough to crush the enemy, top and mid falling behind in the early game pretty much meant that this round would be hard for ZGDX to turn around. Lu Sicheng was laning normally, with a slight advantage. Lu Sicheng could be considered an invincible ad, but the Butterfly and Old Wang duo had also won the spring championship. Even if they couldn't gain an advantage against Lu Sicheng, they wouldn't let Lu Sicheng develop to the point where he could carry the game.
