She noticed a lot of similarities.
Ga strategies are sotis not much different from stock trading; execution is a very important part of both.
Hesitation leads to failure!
Sticking to a strategy doesn’t necessarily lead to victory, but at least you’ll know why you lost.
However, she also understood the downside of Li Yang’s strategy; it required one particularly strong point to break through the opponent.
If in the next match Li Yang is targeted, it will be very difficult.
As the second match began, Li Yang was indeed targeted.
Samsung White’s jungler and support camped mid lane; no matter how many wards were around Li Yang, they still hindered his developnt.
But Samsung White soon realized sothing was off.
Because... EDG’s jungler, the Blind Monk, was unbelievably maxing out W.
That ability gives a shield, yet the Blind Monk is a high-damage warrior.
Li Yang chose Kog’Maw for mid lane; many thought he’d go the mage route with long-range poke.
This is also a scaling monster and rarely seen in mid lane.
Then, we witnessed an ultimate four protect one tactic.
Even though Li Yang didn’t develop well, leading only by a thousand gold in lane, Kog’Maw with three core items has insane damage.
The drawback is short legs, but Li Yang took Ghost.
Another drawback is fragility; if controlled, he’s dead.
But that Blind Monk abandoned his warrior pride, maxed W, and even built AP items.
A shield that thick!
Not to ntion the support Lulu’s shield and ultimate, and in top lane, a Big Tree as the absolute tank.
At twenty-four minutes, Kog’Maw with three items ended the ga in one wave.
The jungler Blind Monk dealt only 4396 damage.
Finally, it was the champion skin match.
According to the rules, the champion will have a custom skin, and 25% of the skin sales will be shared with the team club and the region.
This money can range worldwide from twenty million to seventy or eighty million.
Li Yang had to choose an aweso champion, one that would promote sales.
Like Yasuo.
"Listen to , choose Stone Giant for top lane, Ezreal and Lux for bot lane... just play normally, leave this ga to ."
Hardly bothered by the enemy’s composition, as this setup is a no-brainer.
Plus, he would pick his last.
The mont Yasuo was locked in, the outco didn’t matter anymore.
Everyone was happy.
Though the lineup was a bit physical-damage heavy, the opponent didn’t dare pick tanks, fearing Li Yang might slaughter them.
Moreover, even if they did, Li Yang wasn’t afraid.
Yasuo is his best champion, hands down.
Even after losing two matches in a row, Samsung White’s montum remained.
They resolutely stuck to the strategy of targeting Li Yang, because he was the engine of the team, deceiving them before.
Especially since in the quarterfinals and semifinals, Li Yang’s performance was steady with almost no highlights.
This ti, they brought three Exhausts, aiming to wear Li Yang down.
However, just two minutes into the ga, "firstblood" was announced.
Li Yang, with a sliver of health, achieved a solo kill—the first ti in three gas he sought a direct confrontation.
As the cara focused on Li Yang, he pointed directly at the emblem on his shoulder!
Five minutes later, another solo kill occurred.
The ga was practically settled.
However, at eight minutes, Samsung White assembled four players for an unprecedented siege on Li Yang.
It was then that everyone understood Yasuo’s line.
"Face the wind!"
With just one item, facing two Exhausts, he fought against four opponents for a long ti.
One wall dazzled all four opponents.
In a four-on-one, he counter-killed two!
After sixteen minutes, Li Yang, with two and a half items split pushing, encountered a five-man siege.
Against three Exhausts, he counter-killed one.
At nineteen minutes, with three items, Li Yang faced another siege.
Samsung White no longer wanted to win, they just wanted to take down Li Yang.
Even if EDG pushed to the base crystal.
"Li Yang, the opponent’s Exhausts are on least eight seconds CD."
"Enough, enough... push slower, I’m going for the pentakill!"
Li Yang wasn’t keeping track of ti, but soone in the team was helping him.
Teammate: "..."
Having played against Li Yang before, they knew his personal skills were indeed strong.
But... they never expected him to be this strong.
And he could show off like this.
Every strike deadly.
Support was taken down by Li Yang in just two strikes.
Even the slightly tanky top laner lasted only five hits.
Li Yang deftly maneuvered with Windwall, elevating ga artistry to its peak.
As Windwall ended, he flashed and, along with the tornado, battered the remaining three.
Top lane’s Stone Giant was dumbfounded.
He thought Li Yang wanted him to team up.
He was even ready to sneak over for support.
But after a few steps, he saw all five enemy avatars grey out, followed by the Pentakill sound effect.
Li Yang knew he’d never have such a ga again.
If he’s in a match, Yasuo would never be let through again.
Moreover, his career should end here; borrowing the ideas of the next decade and the skills honed over ten years.
Next year he might still have a slight edge in ideas, but certainly not the absolute confidence of this year.
...
"Mom, Li Yang won!"
Jiang Banxia imdiately texted Dou Ying.
Dou Ying: "..."
She was watching the match too, but she’s been holding back a sentence.
Because... she discovered that Xue Ning’s securities account had an IP address in South Korea.
...
(The ga is over. There won’t be more, setting up Li Yang’s path. Life continues after...)
