“She’s out! TES’s top laner is out! It’s Riven again!”

The hero Riven, although not a particularly strong top laner in the current game version, is definitely not weak either.

He is capable of fighting in laning phase, and after his equipment is completed, he is also capable of killing the back row in seconds.

But this hero is so rare to see on the field.

It can even be said that in the professional arena in recent years, Riven’s appearance rate has been pitifully low!
In S12, although Riven had a 100% win rate, she only appeared once.

As for this only time, it was also taken by Lu Yiming.

There is simply no one else who can complete this hero.

Although they all had to admit that Lu Yiming’s use of Riven was indeed quite effective before.

But today, Lu Yiming actually got Riven in such an important game!

Is he confident in himself, or is he playing tricks?
Shouldn’t heroes like Riven be played just for fun?

This also caused a quarrel on the barrage.

[Is this hero Riven meant to be played for fun? 】

[Playing in entertainment games? Can this hero be on the stage of the world game? 】

[This is the World Championship, not a bronze match. Don’t mess with my mentality by bringing out a Riven, okay? ]

[I’m really impressed. Wouldn’t it be better to choose a normal hero? Why did you have to choose Riven to show off? ]

[The above, you can tell at a glance that you don’t understand Lv Yiming, Riven is also my god! ]

[That’s right, I can be the carry in any game. Did you forget the Riven in the previous game? ]

[Hehe, can you compare the previous game with Riven now? Who was the opponent in that game, and who was the opponent in this game? ]

[Don’t take the Sword Demon, but take Riven. Do you think your skills are good enough to crush the opponent? ]

[To be honest, I have always been confident in my brother, but this time, I really don’t understand. 】

[No, it’s the World Championship, don’t play such an abstract hero, please. ]

[Please, I have never been disappointed in you, please don’t let me down today, please choose a normal hero and beat DRX! ]

……

Although there are many supporters of Lu Yiming in the barrage, more people still think that Lu Yiming was a little too pretentious in this game.

After all, this is the stage of the World Championship, and it is such an important game.

You are a top laner and you choose Riven. Do you think your skills are enough to completely crush the opponent?
Or do you think this game is already secured, so you want to pick Riven to play with?

Looking at the quarrel on the barrage, the on-site commentator also shook his head.

They could also see that Lu Yiming’s choice in this game was indeed somewhat “unique”.

However, a commentator is still a commentator, and it is impossible for him to say anything bad about the players, so after a brief silence, the commentator began to analyze:

“In today’s games, although Riven’s win rate is okay, her appearance rate is really too low. I think this has something to do with the current version.”

“After all, in today’s version, the top lane position is more inclined to choose some heroes with tankiness and control, such as Aatrox and Sejuani. These heroes are now considered T0 level in the top lane position.”

“As for Riven, although her laning ability is not weak, and after her equipment is complete, her damage is also very terrifying, but this hero is a fragile hero after all, and she does not have stable control. In a team battle, if she fails to kill the enemy’s back row in seconds, she will be killed in seconds.”

“So, although Tzun’s performance with this hero was indeed outstanding before, I still think that Riven is not a very good choice for today’s game.”

Facing the Sword Demon, Lu Yiming actually had more good choices, but he didn’t choose them.

In the end, surprisingly, Riven was targeted.

In this game, he just wants to play Riven!

This decision really shocked everyone.

The inside of DRX is actually quite shocking as well.

“This top laner actually dares to pick Riven in the world championship?”

“What is he doing? Does he really think that Riven is invincible?”

Several members of DRX looked at Tzun’s Riven with expressions of astonishment.

It’s not like they haven’t seen Tzun’s Riven before, so they know this top laner has some skills.

But, that was the regular season after all.

Just because you can show off in the regular season doesn’t mean you can show off in the finals.

Can the intensity of competition in the finals be the same as that in the regular season?

“Don’t underestimate him. There must be something fishy about this Riven!”

DRX’s top laner kingen frowned, looking serious.

“What do you mean?”

AD player deft frowned and looked at kingen with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Does kingen still think that Riven can really make any waves in front of them?
“Don’t forget, this is the World Championship. Tzun can’t do anything here.”

“Since he dared to take Riven, he must have his reasons.”

“Maybe this is some secret weapon they prepared!”

kingen analyzed seriously.

Hearing kingen’s words, the other members of DRX also frowned and fell into deep thought.

Indeed, what kingen said is correct.

This is the World Championship, not some entertainment game, let alone a RANK.

Tzun picking Riven here definitely can’t be a trick.

He must have some plans of his own.

Maybe, this Riven is a tactic they carefully prepared!
“Then…what are we going to do?”

Mid laner Zeka looked at kingen and asked with some concern.

Although they are not afraid of Tzun’s Riven, they still have to be on guard.

If there really is something fishy about Riven, or if she has some tactics used by the demons, then they would be in danger.

“How to do?”

“What else can we do? We have to deal with it carefully.”

“Also, we need to make some adjustments to our tactics.”

kingen said in a deep voice, “We must not be careless with Riven!”

However, just when DRX was very nervous about this, the situation on the other side was different for TES.

The white crescent looked gloomy.

He stared at Lu Yiming.

You kid, are you making a blind choice for me again?
How could Lu Yiming not see the expression on Bai Yueya’s face, and he chuckled.

“Yone has already been banned for me, so it should be no problem for me to pick any hero I want.”

White Crescent wanted to speak several times but stopped herself, not knowing what to say.

Forget it, he would just let Lu Yiming be willful again.

After all, if they want to win, they still have to rely on Lu Yiming in the end.

However, Riven’s choice really made White Crescent a little confused.

This is the stage for the finals.

He had already developed many tactics and lineups in order to cope with the maximum five games in the finals.

If everything could go as he wished and develop ‘step by step’, it would be fine.

But Lu Yiming is always the most special one among them and will disrupt his plans.

The hero Riven is all about personal heroism, there is no tactics involved.

White Crescent really couldn’t think of any tactics to use with Riven.

But whatever.

Just treat Riven as a warrior like the Sword Demon. The rest of the positions are still selected according to the tactics he has formulated in advance.

Next, TES finally locked on Varus and Karma in their choice of bottom lane heroes.

This common POKE bottom lane combination is not weak in laning phase.

DRX’s fourth-floor choice is the policewoman.

In the current version, the most common auxiliary pairing for the policewoman is the cat.

However, cats are currently banned.

So everyone speculated that the policewoman should choose a soft support combination like Renata or Lux.

After all, the policewoman is a hero who needs to gain an advantage online in the early stages.

It is understandable that choosing such a support will increase the laning strength in the early stage.

However, in the end, what happened was something no one expected.

In the last pick, DRX chose Bard for the support!
The hero Bard is a roaming hero.

It is almost completely incompatible with AD like Caitlyn who needs to gain an advantage in the lane.

Everyone looked at DRX’s choice with some confusion.

“What the hell is DRX doing? Don’t they know what kind of support hero to pair with Caitlyn?”

“That’s right. If they choose Bard, don’t they consider the policewoman’s line?”

“Are they planning to let Bard roam around and give up on Lady Police’s lane?”

“But this doesn’t make sense. If the policewoman can’t gain an advantage in the early game, it will be hard for her to play a role in the later game.”

“Could this be some secret tactic of DRX?”

For a moment, everyone was confused about DRX’s choice.

“They chose Bud?”

On the TES side, they were also surprised to see DRX choose Bard.

“What on earth is DRX doing?”

A Shui frowned and looked at DRX’s lineup, feeling confused.

“I don’t know, but this should be a good thing for us.”

Policewoman and Bard.

The early laning strength of their bottom lane combination will definitely not be too high.

This is a good thing for their bottom lane.

They can develop more steadily.

“Yes, indeed.”

Ah Shui nodded.

Since DRX chose such a combination for the bottom lane, they just need to develop steadily in the bottom lane.

It’s not too late to make an effort when the team battle comes.

After the lineups of both sides were determined, they quickly entered the game.

“Their bottom lane duo is not very strong in the early stages. We can seize this opportunity and try to gain some advantages.”

Xiaotian said quickly in the voice.

He was also very clear that Lu Yiming’s performance in the previous round had proved that he was not afraid of being caught, or he had already gained experience from being caught.

In the early stage, even if the opponent’s jungler brings the mid laner, they may not be able to kill Lu Yiming.

Because of his stable performance, Xiao Tiancai planned to focus a little more on other lines in this round.

“Well, I see.”

As soon as they came online, the TES bottom lane duo played very aggressively.

They know that they have an advantage in terms of laning strength in the early stages.

Therefore, they must seize this opportunity and try to gain as much advantage as possible.

As for DRX, although they know that their duo’s laning strength in the early stage is not as good as the opponent, they don’t need to worry too much.

After all, they have other lines to open.

“We also played very aggressively in the middle.”

DRX’s mid lane played very aggressively.

They knew that their laning strength in the early stage of the bottom lane was not as good as that of the opponent.

Therefore, they must find ways to expand their advantages.

The simplest way is to rely on roaming in the middle lane.

“Roam away and cooperate with the jungler to catch their top lane.”

“clear.”

DRX’s mid laner started to roam away, cooperating with the jungler to catch the opponent’s top laner.

Their bottom lane began to develop steadily.

But at this moment, everyone was shocked by the scene on the road.

While everyone was still discussing tactics, the top lane of TES and the top lane of DRX had already started fighting.

In this game, Lu Yiming chose Riven, while the opponent’s top laner chose Aatrox.

Both Aatrox and Riven are operation-type top laners.

These two heroes fight very aggressively in the early stages of the laning phase.

However, Riven in this game is obviously more flexible than Yongen in the previous game.

Riven, who learned the Q skill at level 1, fought very aggressively in lane.

At first, Aatrox wanted to fight Riven head-on, but he soon discovered that the Riven he was facing had perfect operation and awareness.

Every time he wanted to attack Riven, Riven would dodge him.

But when he thought Riven was going to come forward and attack, the opponent suddenly retreated.

This style of play made the Sword Demon feel a little uncomfortable.

This regular three-stage QA consumption makes even the Sword Demon feel like dying because Riven always does what she should do at the right time.

After level 3, Riven, who learned the three skills of QWE, fought more aggressively online.

The QA connection is smooth. After each normal attack, you can use skills to cancel the afterswing and maximize your output.

As for the Sword Demon, he was overwhelmed by Riven.

He really wanted to find an opportunity to counterattack, but Riven’s operation was so perfect that he had no chance at all.

“So strong!”

The Sword Demon looked at Riven in front of him with some horror.

He had met many Riven players before, but this was the first time he had seen a Riven as powerful as the one in front of him.

And even though he had seen Tzun’s Riven game record before, when they were actually laning, Riven’s laning strength was obviously beyond his imagination.

“No, if this continues, I’m afraid I’ll be suppressed to the point where I won’t even be able to gain any experience.”

The Sword Demon was secretly anxious, and he began to think of ways to seek help from the jungler.

However, just when he sent a signal to the jungler, Riven suddenly became extremely ferocious.

Use the first stage of Q skill to rush to the side of the Sword Demon, followed by a normal attack, then the second stage of Q skill, and then another normal attack.

This combo caught the Sword Demon off guard.

He quickly used his skills to fight back, but Riven used her E skill shield to block some of the damage, and then used three stages of her Q skill to retreat.

The whole set of combos flows smoothly.

The Sword Demon is really sweating profusely! (End of this chapter)
