FourEyesChan leaned back in his chair and put the microphone stand on his chest. He said, I dont think anyone saw this coming. Barely an hour in and Team Shanghai is up 2-0 against Team Beijing.

You know what that means! Cherry cheered, giggling.

FourEyesChan nodded and replied, That means its Championship Point for Team Shanghai! One more game and theyre the new Collegiate Cup Champions!

Cherry looked out over the stadium at the fans sitting in their seats waiting for the third game and asked, You enjoy analysis and predictions for these games, right? What are you expecting to see in Game 3?

I do! FourEyesChan replied. He adjusted his glasses and analysed, Team Shanghai is on the Blue Team next game, so lets start with them. Weve seen in the previous two games that this team is centered completely around their Midlaner. Their Bot and Toplaners do try and make something happen, but there is such a big qualitative difference between them and their Midlaner that as the game progresses, they find themselves relying more and more on their Midlaner. The Jungler is clearly aware of this fact and helps her Midlaner pull ahead when really needed, like she did with Eve during Game 1.

Usually, Team Beijing would have an advantage here. Its clear what Team Shanghais strong point is and that gives you the idea that you know how to beat them, right? FourEyesChan briefly paused, waiting for Cherry to nod in agreement, and then continued, Right. But that isnt the case here in my opinion. The reason for that is that Team Shanghais Midlaner is so much better than everyone on Team Beijing combined. Even if they try to stop him, this Lin Feng will just 1 versus 5 them. Which brings me to the conclusion of my analysis. Team Beijing is fucked. Team Shanghai, and mostly Lin Feng, is too good. Theyre going to walk away with Game 3.

Cherry smiled and said, As insightful as ever! Thanks FourEyesChan! And it looks like youve talked right through the break! I can see both teams getting ready in the lobby. Well be getting into Champion Select in a couple of seconds!

Down in the stands, Qiu Yijie shook his head. He finally looked at his friends from Zhejiang University and said, Those shoutcasters are right for once. With Lin Feng

Zou Cheng laughed and shouted, HES THE VERY BEST!

Lin Feng yawned loudly and said, Boy, I could really use a nap!

Were in Game 3, Lin Feng, Zeng Rui replied with a frown.

Lin Feng waved Zeng Ruis worries away and said, Dont worry! Im on it! Carry time! He then leaned back in his chair and watched his team enter Champion Select. We start with a couple of bans. Who wanted Zeng Rui to ban again? Ah, doesnt matter. Right! He was going after the Ahri! Something about it being a strong Champion from Yu Ping. And Fizz Huh? Why are they banning Varus, Eve, Twisted Fate? Like I dont know how to play any other Champions! Idiots.

Team Shanghai got the first pick. They went with Lee Sin for An Xin. The next two picks were for Team Beijing. They went with Rengar the Jungle Cat and Janna the Floating Support. Team Shanghai was up again. They decided on Kalista and Leona for their second and third picks.

Lin Feng yawned again. He slapped himself in the face a few times and mumbled, Wake up! Just one more game to win this whole thing. He blinked a few times while Team Beijing chose their third and fourth Champions. The third one was Gragas, which didnt get any response from Lin Feng. But when he saw the LeBlanc fourth pick, he sat up straight and squared his shoulder. Thats more like it! Hes come out to play! He grinned and clenched his fist and said, Since he wants to play, lets play!

Zhang Hao and An Xin turned their heads left and Tang Bingyao and Zeng Rui turned their heads right. They all stared at Lin Feng, surprised. The previous two games were for the most part hard carries by Lin Feng. They were under the impression he was already trying. Zeng Rui opened his mouth and wanted to remind Lin Feng to stick to the strategy, but then closed it again. We dont need strategy if hes going to play even better

The time has come for me to stop holding back! Lin Feng announced, pumping his fist up into the air. He looked around at his teammates and continued, I shall no longer limit myself with weak early game Champions! Ill give this man the face he deserves! Im going to go all out on one of my favourite Champions! He then focused on his screen and shouted with a big grin, Yasuo the Unforgiven! I CHOOSE YOUUU!

Wowowow! That aint no weak laner! Thats Yasuo!Hes just going to change his playstyle? Why? He was wrecking Team Beijing with his Varus and Twisted Fate. I get that they were banned, but couldnt he have gone something like Viktor?"Were you watching the same games I was? Did you see his microplay? Did you not hear when everyone was calling him the god of microplay? Those are mechanics! HEAVENLY MECHANICS!He does look heavenlyAnd Yasuo is one of the more mechanic-heavy Champions. If he can show the level of play he did on Twisted Fate on Yasuo? Oh boy, this gonna be good!LeBlanc is also all about mechanics! This is going to be the ultimate mechanics matchup!THIS IS GONNA BE A FEAST FOR OUR EYES! A FEAST I TELL YOU!MY EYES WILL BE FULL AFTER THIS GAME!LIKE A GOOD MEAL! YUMMIE YUMMIE!

In Team Beijings soundproof booth, Yu Ping grimaced. He shook his head and mumbled, Of-fucking-course. Now he goes with his normal Champions! WELP! At least I get to play against him going all out one more time

Dont be so down! Team Beijings Jungler said over the teams voice chat. He looked at Yu Ping and continued, Maybe we

Yu Ping looked at his Jungler and smiled. He shrugged and replied, We both know whats going to happen. Remember what he did with Twisted Fate? He just needs to do that again and were out. Weve lost, pretty much. Lets just accept that. But were not going out without a fight! Hes going to have to earn it! He gripped his mouse tightly and looked at his screen. He took a deep, long breath and then let all his frustration and anger escape through his lips. You know? he asked. He then looked around at his teammates and continued, It doesnt really matter who he is. Hes better than all of us combined. The pressure is off for us. Lets go in and show him hell!

The other players from Team Beijing looked at their captain and hesitated. They understood just as well as he did that they needed more than a miracle to turn this series around and win it. So rather than worrying about complicated strategies and other such things, they focused on what they did have control over. To have fun. To play a game of League of Legends as best as they could and enjoy it. They clenched their fists and shouted, SHOW HIM HELL!

Yu Ping narrowed his eyes and focused on Yasuos portrait. Show me how good you really are.

Welcome to Summoners Rift!

The players from Zhejiang University and Fudan University sat on the edge of their seats. Zou Cheng couldnt tear his eyes from the large LCD screen above the stage as he asked, How long do you think Yu Ping can hold Lin Feng off?

Qiu Yijie glanced at Zou Cheng and replied, 7 minutes?

No way, Sun Ruinian said. 5 minutes tops.

Fudan Universitys Jungler shook his head and asked, How are you guys this sure? Yeah he won the first two games. But is he really that good that you dont even think theres a possibility of Yu Ping winning this lane?

Lol! Zou Cheng replied, laughing. He still wouldnt move his eyes from the large LCD screen as he explained, You dont get it. You havent played against him. It doesnt look too impressive most of the time, though it did look hella impressive on the Twisted Fate. But really, it dont look all that special most of the time. That is, until you play against him. Then you suddenly find yourself with your back against the wall and a gun in your mouth! Theres nothing you can do and everything you try to do just backfires! The way that he plays? Fuck me! Ive never played against anyone else who could put out that much pressure!

Qiu Yijie pointed at the large LCD screen and said, There. Just watch.

Lin Fengs Yasuo had reached Level 3. Hed unlocked his three main abilities and used them to up the aggression. He dashed through a minion and then another to arrive in front of Yu Pings LeBlanc! Steel Tempest! He thrust his Katana and pierced LeBlanc!

LeBlanc retaliated by casting Distortion and jumping away from Yasuo! She followed up with Sigil of Malice and Ethereal Chains! The mark from Sigil of Malice appeared above Yasuos head. It needed another skill from LeBlanc to explode. The chains shot at Yasuo, looking to do just that. But Lin Feng was faster. He pressed the W key, and his Yasuos katana slashed out horizontally with such speed that it created a Wind Wall! The Ethereal Chains smashed into it and missed.

Qiu Yijie chuckled and said, Saw that? How he came out ahead in that fight? Looked pretty standard, right? Trust me, that wasnt standard. Hes thinking 10 moves ahead and playing 5D chess. This was just a preparation for whats to come. Maybe forcing Yu Ping to drink a health pot is going to matter in a bit. Well see. I dont get it myself yet, but youll see. And itll be crazy.
