As for Morning Star, the professional mid laner, no one would ever forget the hero that made him famous.
There were all kinds of titles in the League of Legends esports circle. Some outstanding professional players might be able to hold many titles at the same time. For example, Han Shihao, the leader of the Four Kings, was not only the world's number one mid laner, but also the number one fox, number one enchantress and so on.
As for the title of Morning Star, apart from being the number one mid laner in the national server and one of the Seven Kings, there was another title that people were more familiar with —
The world's number one Card Master.
Back then, the battle where the mid laner captain of Team God rose to fame was when Drizzt, a card player, fought against the Four Kings mid laner of Team Fate from South Korea.
As one of the Seven Kings, he challenged someone of a higher level.
It was a draw and he shocked everyone.
In the past, when the game version gave cards a strong edge, in the LPL professional league of the national server, Card Master Drizzt would always be on the opponent's list.
In the player list.
This was enough respect for Morning Star, the world's number one card.
It was also an absolute recognition of his card's strength.
However …
Each version was a god of a generation.
No matter how strong a hero was in the past, there would always be a time when the sun would set.
Cards had long been withdrawn from the T1 echelon of the current version. They could not even squeeze into the T2 echelon. According to the official statistics of this season, the appearance rate of Card Masters in the LPL division was zero.
Looking at the other major divisions in Europe, America, South Korea and so on, the total number of appearances of Card Masters this year was only two.
Moreover, their performance and battle results were equally dismal and pitiful.
Therefore, it was still the same saying. The version determined the hero.
Of course, to those die-hard old fans of Morning Star, many people would often mention the various god-level plays of the amazing cards that the captain of Team God had in the past. They looked forward to the day when they could see Star Emperor's card in the competition again.
"If it's Star Emperor's card, even if it's a weaker version, it can still win.
The entire audience. "
Some players and fans mentioned this more than once.
Hence …
Until today.
When Morning Star took out the Card Master and confirmed that he was destined to play in the fourth match of the 'best-of-five' finals, he seemed to have fulfilled the dreams of many of his old fans.
In exchange.
The entire stadium was in an uproar!
It even spread like a wave, causing the entire internet to boil with excitement!
…
"Card?!"
For a moment, in countless internet cafes and school dormitories in the country, the Chinese server players who were waiting in front of their computer screens nearly stood up from their seats!
He widened his eyes and exclaimed in shock!
Unbelievable and unimaginable!
And then …
Countless people sucked in sharp breaths at that moment, and cold sweat covered their backs.
"What the hell …"
"Why did you choose cards?!"
The majority of the local players naturally hoped to see the Morning Star Card Master in the arena one day, but such a thing shouldn't happen at such a critical juncture like this.
This was … the life and death match of the finals!
Facing an opponent as terrifying as SSK was no laughing matter.
Many of Morning Star's old fans were on the verge of tears.
Star King, it's true that we want to see you find time to pick up a card, but you should at least choose a more normal occasion. Wouldn't it be better to have an exhibition match with a Card Master? Even if you're "thinking" of the fans, you don't have to joke at such a critical moment in the finals, right?
In such a match, if you choose a Card Master, who was so unpopular in the current version, wouldn't everything be over?
…
"No."
Lin Feng suddenly said from the backstage area. His eyes were shining brightly.
"We can fight."
Ceng Rui paced back and forth anxiously like an ant on a hot pan.
"How can we fight?"
"Abandoning the version to choose a hero, the statistics of the current version don't even show the shadow of a Card Master! How can we fight? "
An Xin looked at Ceng Rui, smiling as she tried to persuade him.
"Ceng, don't be anxious. Think about it carefully.
"Sometimes you're too obsessed with all kinds of statistical analysis, but this time … if the Card Master is chosen, the effect might not be as good as Ryze's."
If these words had come from Lin Feng, Ceng Rui might have dismissed them as a lunatic.
However, because it came from An Xin, he paused for a moment.
He looked up at the LCD screen on the stage.
Purple Team God, top lane Jayz, mid lane Card, jungler Prince, support Toad …
Finally, as if realizing something, Ceng Rui's face suddenly revealed a look of realization. Seeing the change in Ceng Rui's expression, An Xin smiled again.
"You can tell?"
Ceng Rui took a deep breath and nodded slowly.
At the same time, on the Chinese commentary platform, Old Mi's rapid analysis of the match was transmitted through the microphone to the ears of every Chinese player in front of their screens.
"Yes, let's calm down and take a closer look.
"Although I was as shocked as you all at first, if you take a closer look at Team God's lineup … there's nothing wrong with it!
"Top lane Jayz paired with Card Master.
"Not only will Jayz be able to make up for the strong parts of the early lane, but at the same time, this duo can also play a considerable role in the poke flow in the mid game."
"If we consider the late game, as long as Jayz and Card Master are able to develop smoothly, they can split up into three, one, and the entire strategy will be very flexible!
"There's also a support Toad in the bottom lane that can also form a full map combo with Card Master in the mid game!
"Although it's an unexpected mid lane pick …
"But this hand of cards is indeed able to bring God's lineup to life effectively."
"It can be played!"
After saying such a long analysis in one breath, Old Mi raised his head, his face flushed with excitement.
"So … today is destined to be a lucky day for all of us. As witnesses, we can once again witness the world's number one card in the LPL division, the shining figure of our shining figure in the world finals!"
Mo Sheng took a deep breath and looked in the direction of Team God's room.
"But after saying all that —"
"We'll have to see how Star King performs in this match!"
…
On the stage, in Team God's room.
He completed the BA.
After choosing his mission, the club's head coach walked off the stage with a heavy heart filled with complicated emotions.
Only the five members of Team God were left in the room.
The atmosphere was quiet.
Morning Star looked at his four teammates. Every one of them … had fought alongside him for many years. They had gone through so much together. There had been glory, but there had also been underestimation. Today, it was still the five of them who had come to the final 'best-of-five' match of the world finals.
Morning Star smiled.
"Do you trust me?"
The members of Team God looked at each other and nodded without hesitation.
Snowy Nightsong grinned.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"You're … our captain!"
