OH YEAH! YOU WANTED HEAT? WE GONNA BRING THE FIRE! Liu Yue screamed when he saw Lin Feng pick LeBlanc for mid lane. He knew just how good Lin Feng was with this Champion. skill on this Champion. Everyone at High School 13 had heard of Lin Fengs insane Le Blanc skills by now. The story of how Lin Feng crushed a potential esports club member who was Diamond ranked at tryouts had turned into a school legend. Liu Yue pumped his fist in the air and shouted, Were winning this 10,000,000% guaranteed!

Ouyang grinned. Sort of. It was a grin through teeth clenched in excitement as his entire body trembled and shook. His knuckles turned white from his tightly balled fists. This gonna be good! He looked left and then right, searching for someone to share his excitement with. He finally said, About goddamn time! Best bro is gonna carry this one! This is the comeback! I swear on my great grandmas grave! His LeBlanc is gonna tear through Shi Hang! Hes gonna teach those arrogant shitheads and their pro cheater a lesson they wont be forgetting!

Yang Fan adjusted his glasses and analyzed, It appears Lin Feng is going to pop off this game. It is 99% likely that he will, as Ouyang so nicely put it, tear through AyDeeCee!

Ren Rou glanced at Yang Fan, surprised. Then she grinned and turned her attention to a different section of the audience. It was where the students from Zhejiang University were sitting. They wont know whatll hit them. This is going to be so sweet!

Shi Hang sat behind his computer, his gaze locked on the LeBlanc pick. His LeBlanc. His Nerves fluttered in his stomach and tied it into a knot. He glanced past his teammates at Team Shanghais soundproof booth. His LeBlanc He grimaced and lightly shook his head. Ive been having so much fun playing against for the last two games that I completely forgot to prepare for... Well. This.

The four other players from Zhejiang University didnt notice that Shi Hangs body language changed or that his mood was completely different. They laughed when they saw that Lin Feng had locked in on LeBlanc. Then they quipped at each other about how Lin Feng seemed to really enjoy playing Ability Power assassins in the mid lane.

Well, it doesnt matter, Zhejiangs Jungler said. He shrugged and continued, He played Fizz last game and lost to Shi Hang. Eh, he did fine at the start, sure. But once we got into the second half of the game? He didnt do much of anything!

Zhejiangs Support laughed and said, With Shi Hang as our Midlaner, theres nothing that kid can do! 3-0, here we come!

Shi Hang looked at his teammates and couldnt stop himself from smiling. If only you guys knew who he is. If only you guys knew about his LeBlanc He started laughing and shaking his head. LeBlanc was Maples signature Champion! No one, absolutely no one could beat his LeBlanc! He bit on his lips and sunk back a bit in his gaming chair. I have to play against Maples LeBlanc. Playing against his Fizz was hard enough... but now its LeBlanc. Now hes serious. He laughed again, helpless. Fuck. Fuck it. Ill do what I can. Itd be really embarrassing if I feed, but I mean He raised his shoulder and shook his head again. This is Maples LeBlanc. What can I do? The only saving grace here is that I dont have to worry about his teammates. They just arent good enough to keep up with him. Shi Hang rolled his head and flexed his shoulders. Were up 2-0 because his teammates arent great. If he had the teammates from his old team No. Scratch that. If all he had was Autumn, Id have never agreed to play. Id be running so fast that they wouldnt even see me! Just the two of them, wed get our asses kicked! Its really crazy how strong his old team was. Two players in the Top 10 of the world! Shi Hang grinned. He grabbed his mouse with one hand and placed the fingers of his other hand on his keyboard. Thank god I dont have to play any of them on top of Maple. His current team is a fantastic handicap for him!

Zeng Rui sat in his gaming chair, looking at his screen while also glancing at Lin Feng. Im fucking done with you! Egotistical asshole! Yeah, youre playing great! Fuck, youre going even against AyDeeCee! But that doesnt mean were suddenly shit! Were all good! Were a strong team! You need to get your head out of your ass and be a teamplayer! He turned his head to look at Lin Feng and said, You dont have to worry about bot. Just focus on mid lane. Tang Tang and Ill take care of things down here.

Tang Bingyao stared intently at Jinxs portrait on the loading screen. What he says! Mhm! Were going to win the bot lane! Screw everything else! She nodded, more to herself than anyone else.

Dont think about top either, Lin Feng! Zhang Hao exclaimed. He balled his fist and continued, Even if I have to cling to his leg and scream for my mommy, I wont let him get away from me! I dont give a single fuck about his B-whatever-grade! Ill keep him down! Trust me.

Lin Feng smiled and nodded, and then suddenly scrunched his nose. He turned to look at An Xin and said, BunBun, will you be fine playing Rengar? The last two games

An Xin tilted her head to look at Lin Feng. Her lips were still smiling, but shed narrowed her eyes. A cold chill swept through the soundproof booth as she said, OH? Are you doubting your teammates again? Werent the others clear? Do I have to repeat them!? Dont worry about Top. Dont worry about Bot. Dont worry about Jungle! You nitwit! If you feed, I swear!

Tang Bingyao, Zeng Rui and Zhang Hao unconsciously pushed themselves away from Lin Feng and An Xin. They knew better than anyone what could happen next. But Lin Feng didnt argue back for a change. He just scratched his head and said, Ok, ok! Dont worry! Im best at LeBlanc! Ill win mid! He then turned his attention to his monitor. His right hand wrapped around the mouse, his thumb lightly pressing against the side of it. He then moved his left hand to hover right above his keyboard. His pinky finger moved first, tapping down on the Q key. His ring finger followed, pressing the W key. His middle finger then pushed down on the E key. Good. He gazed at his screen, narrowing his eyes just enough to block everything else ou, and said over the teams voice chat, Lets give em hell!

Welcome to Summoner's Rift!

The game announcers voice boomed through the speakers in the venue. Team Shanghais Champions spawned on the blue fountain in the bottom left corner of the map and Zhejiang Universitys Champions spawned on the red fountain on the other side of the map. They bought their starter items and then made their way out of the base down the various lanes and into the Jungle.

Rollfire held his microphone close to his mouth and said, What a pick from Team Shanghai! They went with Rengar! The Jungler whos been struggling on Lee Sin goes with another mechanical heavy Champion! She really wants to go all out in this final game!

Hoh, hoh, hoh! Silent Reed countered. She shook her head and replied, Who says this is the final game? Im saying this game is all Team Shanghais! Definitely! Because how sweet would it be if we get to cast another three games? An epic five game series! Just imagine!

Rollfire grinned. Trying so hard to kiss Shanghai Stupid Organizations ass, huh? Well, thats one way to get invited to cast again. Being an actually good caster might also help. But we both know you suck at that! He nodded at himself and then said, I feel like if we wanted to get a Game 4, Team Shanghai shouldve gone for something else. Maybe something like that Fiddlesticks from before!

Silent Reed sighed loudly into her microphone, spooking herself. She shook her head and focused her attention on the large LCD screen. She said, Lets just get into the game! Looks like were starting with a normal lane setup! Rengar is starting on the Red buff and Maokai on the Blue buff!

An Xin had Rengar kill the Red Brambleback, smiling. She tapped her fingers on her mouse and felt them reacting like she wanted them to. The meds are finally kicking in! This is good! I can play like this! I can finally do what I normally do! Her smile turned brighter as she panned her screen towards the top-side Jungle from the Red team. Level 2 invade on their Red Buff! Yeah!

An Xins Rengar stalked through the Jungle, running between brushes down a practiced path. He dodged the wards and vision from Zhejiang University and slipped into the brush next to Red teams Red Buff Camp. Maokai had just arrived and was attacking the Red Brambleback. He was slowly whittling its health down, while taking substantial damage himself.

An Xin smiled. He isnt expecting me at all. I can just wait. She watched Zhejiangs Maokai fight until the Red Brambleback was down to half health. First blood! She clicked on Maokai! Rengar leapt from the brush and struck out with his claws!

Zhejiang Universitys Jungler hadnt expected the gank at all. His eyes went wide and he slammed down on the D key before he even realised he had. A mottled flash of light wrapped around his Maokai and carried him a short distance. But Rengar followed right behind him with a Flash of his own. ShitShitShit!

First Blood!

OH MY GOOOOOOOOD! WOOOOO!WOOT WOOT! FIRST BLOOD FOR BUNBUN!WOOOOOOOOOOO!TEAM SHANGHAI FOR THE TURNAROUND!SICK GANK! HAHAHA!

Inside Team Shanghais soundproof booth, An Xin breathed out and relaxed. She then turned to look at Lin Feng and teased, Watch out. Ive already got a lead on you.

Zhejiangs Toplaner raised his brows and turned his head to look at his Jungler. He shook his head and said over the teams voice chat, Really, dude? Really? How the heck did you get caught there?

The Support sat all the way on the other end of the long desk. He leaned back a bit to look at his Jungler and added, Be a little careful! Shit! You wanna play against a fed Rengar or something?

Sun Ruinian narrowed his eyes and interrupted, Guys. Focus! Dont be careless, please.

Fuck! Sorry, guys Zhejiangs Jungler shook his head and kicked against the back of his desk. He grimaced and continued, I just Fuck! I really didnt see it coming! She was so bad the last two games! Why the fuck is she suddenly invading? Dammit! I shouldve been more careful. One ward wouldve helped me survive there. And I even panic-flashed. Seriously, Im stupid. Sorry, Im really sorry.

Shi Hang scrunched his nose and tilted his head. This feels, it feels wrong. Hes on LeBlanc and after that Lee Sin, she goes with Rengar? Its all wrong. He said over the teams voice chat, Calm it. That Rengar is more aggressive than before, so lets be ready for it. Get some wards up and dont rush back to your Red Buff. She might still be there.

Maple. Maple, Maple, Maple. Shi Hang focused his attention back on the LeBlanc he was playing against in the mid lane. She always stood behind you. I dont think Ive ever actually seen her play. The girl with the pigtails. Everyone knew her. She was the genius! But she never played. She just followed after you. Im starting to get really curious to find out just how good she is. He grinned and narrowed his eyes. I saw that kill on Maokai. But I was too late. I couldnt collapse on her. She played that really well. If she starts playing like that Itll be interesting again!

Well, that was a great invade by Rengar! Silent Reed said into her microphone. She shook her head and continued, Such a nice first blood! Im really impressed! And look at this. She pointed at the large LCD screen, which showed Zhejiangs Jungler carefully entering his Jungle and placing wards in every brush, and continued, Rengar has already returned to her own Jungle. But Zhejiangs wards didnt catch her, so theyre probably thinking shes still in their Jungle! Its such a nice play!

Rollfire grabbed his microphone and argued, Nothing wrong with being careful! See how theyre placing down wards and getting up some good vision around their Jungle? Thats exactly what Fuzhou Tech shouldve done to stop Team Shanghai in the previous round! Then itd be Fuzhou Tech facing off against Zhejiang University here today!

Silent Reed turned her head to look at Rollfire, annoyed. Shut up! She breathed out loudly and then leaned back towards her microphone. She said, Enough about that! Lets see how the other lanes are doing! Were starting with the top lane where we have a Dr. Mundo versus Irelia matchup!

Zhang Hao was completely focused on his monitor. I cant beat him in a 1vs1. Hes the better player. But I dont have to fight him! I just need to farm and not give anything away. No one beats Mundo in the late game! Ill throw cleavers at them all day and all night! He grinned and activated Infected Cleaver! His Dr. Mundo hurled his cleaver at Irelia! The attack didnt just deal damage, but also slowed Irelia. It slowed her enough that she missed a last hit on a minion! Hehe! Thats the way! Ill make her miss last hits and win this lane!

Dr. Mundo was a purple monster who took great pleasure in watching his victims suffer. It was to such an extent that when he hit a target with his Infected Cleaver, he healed himself a little bit. Zhang Hao used this to keep his health up while interrupting Irelia. I just gotta play it safe. Throw cleavers and get CS! And then I just need to look for opportunities to make a Teleport Gank! He nodded at himself and smiled. Im not going to drag the team down this game, no matter what!

Huh? Sun Ruinian mumbled. He scrunched his nose and turned his head to look at his Support. He asked, You seeing that?

Yeah, Zhejiangs Support replied. He shook his head and added, Ive tried to hit her with my Howling Gale twice now, but both missed. Shes suddenly dodging my skills!

Hmm Sun Ruinian responded. Something has changed. That Vayne is playing far better than in the previous two games. It isnt even just dodging the Howling Gales. Those things take time to charge up. Its not so hard to dodge. But shes also cancelling my Jinxs auto attack animations! Every time I try to go in for some poke, she knows exactly how much range I need and makes sure I dont get that. He chewed on his lips and glanced at the soundproof booth across the stage. Its like Im playing a different player. Shes actually good this game

In Team Shanghais soundproof booth, Tang Bingyao sat on the edge of her gaming chair. She was leaning forward, close to her monitor, and was clicking rapidly on her mouse. Mhm! I can do this! WinWinWin! The Lin Feng way! My mechanics and reflexes are the best! Go full on them! Auto attack! Range! Dodge! Mhm! I got this! She kept making the smallest adjustments to her positioning, just enough to stop an auto attack from Jinx while still getting the last hit on a minion. She played it perfectly, her complete focus on her Vayne.

Zeng Rui glanced at Tang Bingyao and smiled. Thats more like it! Youre great! He then looked back at his monitor, at the minimap in the bottom right corner of his screen. BunBun is coming down for a gank. He said over the teams voice chat, Tang Tang, get ready.

An Xin pinged on the Janna and added, Kill Janna first.

Mhm! Tang Bingyao replied. She glanced at the minimap and judged how long it would take An Xins Rengar to arrive in lane. Then, just at the right moment, she pushed forward.

Zhejiangs Janna saw the change in Tang Bingyaos Vayne right away and cast Howling Gale! A storm started brewing on the Rift, slowly gaining in power until it erupted into a powerful tornado! It carved a path straight ahead!

Tang Bingyaos Vayne Tumbled to the side and the Howling Gale blasted past her. Another dodge! She looked at Janna and Vayne who were already running away, and knew she had time. Zeng Ruis Leona had flashed through the Howling Gale and arrived right in front of Janna. Hed followed up by smashing his Shield of Daybreak into her! Janna was stunned!

Tang Bingyao had her Vayne walk towards Janna and fired an empowered auto attack! She then ran past Janna, firing a second silver bolt! And finally, when the angle was just right, she activated Condemn! Vayne pulled the large crossbow from her back and squeezed the trigger! A thick, massive bolt shot at Janna and pierced through her! Janna got knocked off her feet and pinned to the wall behind her! A third silver ring appeared beneath her and exploded for massive true damage!

Almost there! An Xin said over Team Shanghais voice chat.
