Chapter 67 What will Coin Bro pick this time?
Beep...
The sound of adjusting the air conditioner temperature filled the ears of everyone at NIP.
Shanji put down the remote control, plopped down on the sofa, and kept pulling at his collar as the cold air flowed into his clothes.
The temperature dropped, and he breathed a sigh of relief. His face, which had been flushed like an apple, gradually lost its redness.
Seeing that Shanji was gradually calming down, Doinb asked with concern, "Shanji, what's wrong with you today?"
In his memory, Shanji shouldn't be someone who easily gets angry, so today he's acting really strangely.
While he's not exactly a top-tier player, he's not so bad at making mistakes in every major game.
Shanji hesitated for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more something seemed wrong. What exactly happened today?
Suddenly, he lost his composure and made a series of foolish moves.
He frowned, shook his head, and said, "I don't know either. Could it really be because the venue is too hot?"
Rashomon offered a suggestion, "In that case, let Shanji play tanks in the next few rounds."
"They don't have Vayne anymore, and Zephyr can't be picked in the second or third game either, so there aren't many options left. We also need to consider the team composition."
Doinb nodded, then shook his head. "We'll see during the draft phase. Zephyr is definitely not going to be picked, and it doesn't necessarily have to be Shanji playing tanky heroes."
"Shanji seems a bit off today," Rookie suddenly said as soon as they entered the lounge.
He was teammates with Shanji last year, and his impression of Shanji was that Shanji was always a player with a good mentality.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were on him.
Jiejie spoke up, "Isn't this a good idea? Let's target him today and make him keep making mistakes."
"Yes." Meiko nodded. "If he's not in good form today, we can target him more. We've used three or four of the Great Tree's reverse ultimates, haven't we?"
Theshy couldn't get a word in edgewise.
Mu Chun laughed and said, "It doesn't seem right. We'll have to wait and see. Maybe he'll adjust and come back to his old ways, then we'll be at a disadvantage."
He didn't care about Shanji's condition today; it was just the effect of one game, and he would probably adjust in the next game. But he still hoped that it could last a little longer.
Daeny called everyone over to discuss the draft picks for the next game.
"Alright, welcome back, everyone. Next up is the second game of the LPL Group D match between IG and NIP."
"NIP, having lost the first game, chose the blue side in the second game," Guan Zeyuan said.
Rita nodded, "Yes, in the second game, I feel like Shanji will be IG's main target."
"Indeed, Shanji's big tree was used three times in the opposite direction in the last game, which was also an important reason why NIP lost the resource team fight in the last game."
"Judging from this, Shanji's condition today is very abnormal. Let's see if he can adjust himself during this short rest period."
"Next, let's move on to BP," Guan Zeyuan announced.
Looking at the bans from both sides, Guan Zeyuan said, "Right away, NIP banned Nightmare, Rabbit, and Azir. As far as I know, Doinb doesn't play Rabbit much."
"The Tsar still chose to target Chunfeng. He has to pay the protection fee. With the Tsar's initiation and damage output capabilities, it feels like we really can't let him go."
Rita nodded in agreement, "Yes, especially considering the opponents he faced in those two games as Tsar, namely TES and AL, both of which are very strong teams."
Guan Zeyuan continued, "IG banned Skarner, Rumble, and Corki."
"These three are the standard bans for the red team."
"Next, we'll see what NIP's first choice will be."
"Coin Bro, what should we pick this game?" Rashomon asked Doinb, holding a notebook.
Then, he slowly recited what was written in the notebook.
Listening to Rashomon's words, Doinb nodded repeatedly, "Let's pick Jayce first, and we'll flex our mid and top laners."
On the first floor, Shanji locked in Jayce. Guan Zeyuan said, "Jayce, it's not common to see someone first pick Jayce. This Jayce must have been the one who started the game."
Daeny didn't hesitate, "We'll take Vie and Bloom."
"Won't there be some conflict?" Mu Chun wondered.
Vi and Braum: one is a champion who initiates team fights by locking onto targets, while the other is more inclined to counter-engage.
With these two players, the overall tone of the lineup becomes somewhat unclear.
"Wouldn't a 'Sun-Changing Woman' be better?" Meiko said.
Daeny shook his head and patted Mu Chun on the shoulder, "It's still Braum. You guys should try to gain an advantage in the bot lane."
Meiko nodded. "Okay."
Guan Zeyuan wondered, "IG locked in Vi and Braum as their jungle and support, doesn't that seem like a bad match?"
"They probably want to strengthen the bot lane's laning ability. Chunfeng was in great form today, so they might want to give him more carry roles," Rita chimed in.
Guan Zeyuan nodded, "NIP chose Zyra and Jhin. Zyra should be a jungler, so it's unlikely she'll be a support. They wouldn't pick Zyra to play against Braum, would they?"
"Cards or Akshan?" Daeny patted Mu Chun on the shoulder.
With Braum picked, Cassiopeia is no longer an option. As for Zephyr, that's not something you can pick in the early games. In this version, any coach who picks Zephyr in the early games should just die.
Mu Chun glanced at the list and realized that there were only two heroes to choose from: Akshan and Twisted Fate. However, he suddenly didn't want to decide on a hero so soon.
"How about I choose again in the next round?"
Upon hearing this, Daeny's eyes lit up. "You little rascal, I knew you had something up your sleeve. You haven't checked your Chinese server account for two days, and you've already learned something new, haven't you?"
He patted Mu Chun's shoulder twice. "Then let's choose Yan Que."
"IG picked Taliyah, why aren't they building an AD carry yet?" Guan Zeyuan wondered.
"Is it possible that Taliyah is an AD carry?" Rita speculated.
Guan Zeyuan nodded. "That's quite possible."
"They're using Taliyah, why should we ban them?" Rashomon asked.
"What position does Taliyah play? Take a look," Doinb replied immediately.
Rashomon looked puzzled. "What other position can Taliyah play? Isn't it just mid lane?"
Doinb was speechless. How could you ask such a question to an oddball bot laner who seemed to have no idea what he was good at?
He patiently asked, "Has the enemy AD played Taliyah recently?"
Rashomon flipped through his notebook.
IG had already banned Renekton in their first ban, but Rashomon was still flipping through his notes.
With time running out, Doinb immediately spoke up, "Ban Gnar first."
But IG quickly banned Poppy, not giving them any time.
"Found him! He hasn't played Taliyah lately. Taliyah is usually played mid lane," Rashomon shouted.
Doinb nodded, "Then let's ban Cassiopeia."
"Cassiopeia and Braum don't synergize well," Leave said, then suggested, "Banning Akshan would be better; he'd be a better match for Braum."
Doinb spoke up, "We'll just charge in with Wolf Mother and Titan. If he picks Twisted Fate or Akshan, we can kill him instantly. Taliyah can't stop us either. Our only fear is Cassiopeia's Earthbind."
No one objected, and NIP ultimately banned Cassiopeia.
Guan Zeyuan said, "NIP banned Cassiopeia, probably for the sake of their team composition."
He then added with a hint of anticipation, "It depends on what IG will pick. But now IG's lineup has three champions with knock-up abilities. Is it possible that they'll pick that champion again for some fun?"
"It's possible. Renekton and Poppy are both banned, so it feels like Yasuo is going to be banned." Rita nodded.
Daeny stood behind Mu Chun, her eyes filled with anticipation, "What should we choose?"
