LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

October 29th, Western Pacific Time.

Everyone in YM got up early to recharge their batteries and took the bus to the final venue around noon.

Lin Ran put on his headphones and looked at the Staples Center not far away through the glass window of the bus. The majestic gray and white building sat quietly there, and the midday sunshine of Los Angeles poured down.

There were already many spectators waiting outside the venue. When they saw the YM bus, they whistled excitedly, and many people waved support items with the YM logo in their hands to cheer them up.

Lin Ran and his teammates got out of the car with their backpacks accompanied by cheers and entered the venue first through the passage arranged by the staff.

"The top lane is freeing, the middle lane is fighting for lane rights, and the jungle is invading. You have practiced these countless times," Han Yi looked around in the spacious and bright team lounge, "What I want to emphasize is the bottom lane."

"Jack and Xiao Ming, you two should not push the line too deep without the support of your teammates, and try not to fight with your opponents. The exchange of blood is enough, and you can't get ahead."

"In this BO5, the two of you are under the greatest pressure." Han Yi looked serious.

Jack and Xiao Ming nodded repeatedly.

The advantage of the bottom lane in this version is very crucial, second only to the midfielder in importance. Hanyi is forced to do this because their bottom lane is really inferior to their opponents in terms of hard power.

Bang's strength has reached its peak this year. From laning to teamfights to decision-making and execution throughout the game, Bang is perfect at every level of professional ADC.

The average opponent economy per game is 2065, and the average damage per point is 725. It only consumes 22.8% of the team's economy to deal 30.7% damage, and the damage conversion rate is 167%... Among these key data for measuring ADC, Bang ranks among the best.

His current strength is comparable to Alpha Dog in the Go world, he is simply a humanoid machine.

Hanyi saw the nervous expressions on the faces of the bot lane players and soothed his tone, "But don't be afraid, they still play the traditional Korean bot lane style. Their pressure on the lane is not very exaggerated, and they prefer stable development in the lane." Wait for your teammates to support you and hold the team together."

"As long as you don't expose too many flaws and get caught," Hanyi emphasized, "the focus in the early and mid-term today is on the midfielder."

The analyst team repeated some key points of the vision layout. It was just 3:30 in the afternoon, and there was still a little time before the opening of the finals.

Lin Ran flipped through his phone, which was filled with unread messages from his classmates and friends. He flipped through it twice, but he couldn't find the one from his father, Lin Mingdong.

At this time, the official backstage staff announced the entrance. Lin Ran stuffed his phone back into his backpack, rolled up the peripherals with the mouse pad, and followed Xiaotian out of the lounge.

The Staples Center is a famous sports building in the Los Angeles area, with a capacity of 20,000 people. It was already packed with seats. The black and red team flags symbolizing YM and the red flag representing SKT in the venue were flying in the air.

Looking down from mid-air, the number of viewers supporting the defending champion SKT is obviously greater.

Double-champion SKT has accumulated a large number of die-hard fans through its excellent results in the past few years. Coupled with a large number of rational and analytical passers-by, they believe that SKT will win its third championship trophy here today.

The electronic screen above the central stage displayed the countdown to the opening of the finals.

As the audience counted down in unison, the entire arena fell into darkness.

Then the lights on the scene instantly turned on, and a huge Hextech treasure chest appeared in the center of the level, and then a key pierced into the treasure chest like a sharp sword!

Various heroes, represented by Spider Queen and Ice Shooter, all appeared on the stage with the help of projection technology.

Finally, the DJ booth slowly rose and the theme song of this World Championship, Ignite, was played live.

Under the restless and rhythmic electronic music, the promotional videos of the two teams in the finals were played on the big screen above the stage, which was mixed with the highlight operations of the two teams in this world championship.

Jin Gong steals the house of the Sword Girl who lives from the dead, Xiaotian’s ghostly Spider Queen, Lin Ran’s card master who predicts and flashes to kill Ximen Xiaoyuren alone, JKL’s Soul Harvester Draven, Xiao Ming’s use of fire against Samsung The lava hell cast by men...

After the promotional video ended, the venue fell into darkness again.

Suddenly a beam of light hit the stage floor, and the light quickly spread around. Then the lights came on. Members of both teams lined up on both sides of the stage. In the center of the stage, there was the Summoner's Trophy coveted by countless professional players!

The male host stood next to the Summoner's Trophy and introduced both teams and members to the audience in English.

"First of all, let us welcome the No. 1 seed from the LPL region, the 2016 LPL Summer Split Champion, Young Miracles!"

The cheers at Staples Center were majestic and shocking.

When Lin Ran was introduced, the cheers reached another level!

During the month-long World Championship, Lin Ran's strength was unquestionable, and he was absolutely at the top level in the world. Now the only person standing in front of him is Demon King Faker!

"Next," the male host turned up the volume, "let us welcome the two-time S3 and S5 global finals champions, the 2016 MSI champion, SK Telecom T1 with warm applause!"

When Faker was introduced, the shouts in the venue reached their peak instantly, almost breaking through the dome!

Lee Sang Hyuk had no expression on his face, put his hands in his pockets and started to act cool.

For him, who has entered the S competition three times, the final stage of the global finals is not a rare thing.

Teammates changed one after another, but only he, Benji and coach kkoma were still standing on the stage.

He came to participate in S6 with only one goal, and that was to win his third Summoner's Trophy!

Three years ago in S3, faker also won the first World Championship trophy in team history at the Staples Center with his teammates.

Three years later, still here, Lee Sang Hyuk is sure that this is God's will, allowing him to achieve the Triple Crown!

…

After a week of preparation, the annual LOL peak showdown is coming again. The LPL division has reached the finals again after two years, and domestic attention has exploded.

The last time the LPL team entered the finals, the influence of e-sports in society was far less than it is now. Today, two years later, as Tengjing continues to deepen its alliances, formalized e-sports competitions have gradually entered the public eye.

University dormitories, subways, buses, Internet cafes... Thousands of viewers opened the live broadcast room of the event, eagerly waiting for the game to officially start!

It was seven o'clock in the morning in China, and Lin Mingdong was sitting in the back seat of the car, preparing to rush to the airport.

He suddenly remembered something. After turning on his phone, the live broadcast software he had installed earlier displayed a pop-up window with the slogan of the S6 Finals.

After hanging up his Bluetooth headset and clicking into the live broadcast room, Lin Mingdong happened to see Lin Ran smiling and waving to accept the loud cheers from the scene.

Lin Mingdong gently touched his son on the screen with his finger, thoughts racing in his mind, and the corners of his usually serious mouth raised slightly.

The assistant in the front row was about to turn around and send the documents when he looked up and saw the picture on Lin Mingdong's phone.

"Do you also watch e-sports? I really like YM's mid laner, he's very skilled..." The assistant didn't expect that the leader in his forties would actually watch e-sports, "Mr. Lin, who do you support?"

After asking this question, the rookie who had just graduated and had been working for less than half a year immediately shut up. He realized that what he had just said was a bit over the line.

"...YM." Lin Mingdong glanced at the screen one last time and put it in his bag.

Staples Center.

Team members from both sides put on headphones and sat on chairs to adjust the equipment.

"Are you nervous?" Xiao Ming asked while chewing gum.

"I'm always nervous," JKL started customizing and used Draven to catch axes like crazy. "My hands are shaking when I don't get any feedback."

"Anyway, it was Han Yi who took the blame for losing today, and it had nothing to do with me, Gao Tianliang," the Garlic Bastard narrowed his eyes, "He guessed the coin and lost."

"Why do you always lose if it's not you?" In the finals, Xiaotian was sure that Hanyi didn't dare to scold him, so he spoke boldly, "Can you do something useful, Hanyi?"

"Jin Gong, when the finals are over, Xiaotian's neck will be yours." Han Yi said expressionlessly.

"Hoo hoo ho..." Jin Gong rubbed his hands with a fierce look on his face.

Perhaps because of the heat before the final, Lin Ran felt a little hot wearing the team uniform jacket, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He grabbed his collar and then leaned over, combing the hair from his forehead with both hands, combing it straight back, exposing his hairline, and wiped away the sweat.

Countless viewers at the scene and in front of the live broadcast room saw this scene on the big screen.

Without the obstruction of hair, Lin Ran's handsome facial features are fully displayed in front of the audience.

"Ran Bao is handsome and handsome!"

"I'm so envious of this hairline that I'm drooling."

"Don't all e-sports players stay up late? How can their hair be so thick? Are they wearing wigs like Jay Chou?"

"Jay Chou: Can you reach me even if you lean on your waist?"

"Good morning, domestic audience friends, and welcome to the finals of the S6 Global Finals. I am Wawa."

"Hello everyone, I'm Miller."

As usual, the commentary for today's final included the Haier brothers, but the two of them could only enjoy half of the shots today, and the other half was blocked by a mountain of meat.

"Hello everyone, I'm PDD." Pangdudu waved and greeted the domestic audience.

"PDD is an old friend of ours and one of the bosses of YM." Wawa saw that the BP had not started yet and was getting ready to warm up. "Let me interview you first. How do you feel about watching your team members play in the audience today?"

"I'm very happy," PDD smiled like the Pot of Greed in Yu-Gi-Oh. "I didn't expect them to get to where they are today."

"Four of the five starting players are in their first year of playing professionally, and the average age of the team is only 17 years old," PDD recalled. "When I brought them here, they were all young. You are a top guy. In less than a year, your career achievements are higher than mine."

"Ran was the first one I recruited into the team. I told him at the time," PDD said with a thick nasal voice and some emotion, "I want to win the first league championship and the first international championship. I want to carve the club’s name into the history of League of Legends.”

“It’s only been a year and we’re about to do it.”

Miller nodded, "Whether we win or lose in the finals, this year is a year full of miracles for YM. It started from the secondary leagues and triple-jumped all the way to the final stage of the global finals. It is an unprecedented and great performance."

"Now let's see if these young guys from YM can continue their youthful miracle!" Wawa shouted.

"YM rush rush rush!"

"If you lose, you won't lose, if you win, you will make a profit, and that's it!"

"If you are willing to kill yourself and dare to pull down the emperor, let's see if YM can withstand it today!"

"Anyway, I won't be criticized when I come back. This year's Bei Guoshan Pellet Dirty Dance is on, so there's no need for YM to panic."

Although most of the viewers in the live broadcast room did not think YM could win, they still sent their most sincere blessings to the YM team members on the other side of the ocean.

"SKT won the coin-guessing round and got priority in picking sides in games 1, 3 and 5, while YM got the 2, 4 and 2 games." Wawa received the information provided by the director, "This is not good news. Everyone knows that this is currently the case. The BP advantage of the blue side in the version is too great.”

At this time, the big screen in the venue entered the BP session, the scene was roaring, and the much-anticipated S6 finals began!

"Sure enough, SKT chose the blue side, and the first ban was given to Zyra." Wawa said lightly.

"YM's first ban was given to Leopard Girl as usual," Miller frowned, "It seems like Nidalee is going to secure the throne of S6 with a 100% BP rate."

SKT then blocked the Spiders, and YM could only choose to ban Syndra. From the strength of the hero to the match of the version, Syndra, a ball-playing woman, was firmly in the middle.

"SKT gave Olaf the last ban!" Miller exclaimed. "This ban position is unexpected. Olaf performed very well before. They can obviously grab it, right?"

But YM on the stage was still thinking about countermeasures. SKT's final ban put them in a dilemma.

Hanyi originally planned to ban Viktor with one last move, but now Olaf, Leopard Girl, and Spider have all been banned, leaving only one blind monk out of the strong jungler.

If they don't ban, the stupid chicken will definitely grab it. If they block the blind monk, then Victor will be released.

Hanyi was still hesitating.

"Let the blind monk go. The excavator is low in strength but can still be beaten." Xiaotian took the initiative to speak. After beating ROX, he was now very confident.

"How about we use our ultimate move in the first game?" Lin Ran suggested.

"Don't you want to hide your hand?" Xiao Ming asked.

"Is it possible that you want to learn from those teams and hide their ultimate moves until next year?" Lin Ran laughed, "After losing the game and returning home, you said that we hid our ultimate moves and it was useless, and we became invincible instantly?"

"How many teams have you opened now?" JKL's hand shook.

"If we take it out and lose, we will know it, but we can't beat them with hard power. If we win, SKT will face difficulties. No matter what, it won't be a loss."

Lin Ran analyzed.

Update as usual tonight!
