You're Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 84 Part 3

Little Fatty: “Yasuo, Taliyah, Gragas, and Taric, these choices are really gay.”

Old Cat: “I'm fine with Yasuo.”

Old K: “They're making it look like people still use Gragas. Are we in a dream?”

Tong Yao: “You guys, take a look at Taliyah, look at Taliyah. A champion I never even encountered in rank matches, now I'm seeing it in skirmish.”

After their moment of silence, they collectively started to sigh. Only their captain paused for a while then said with a stone face: “I really want to throw all of you out to work on a sweet potato field.”

Everyone: “......”

Tong Yao and her teammates had to admit that they were shocked by Team OP's courage to randomly choose their champions-- --It was a strange feeling for them. While they were playing their daily ranked matches, if they saw the opposing team with a lineup like Team OP, they would think the opposing team was going to give them an easy time from the beginning. But as they started playing against Team OP, they found that it was far from easy.

-- --Though Team OP didn't catch ZGDX completely by surprise in the ban & pick phase, their trick switching Yasuo from mid to top did give Old K and Tong Yao difficult times in their respective lanes…...They couldn't kill their counterparts and had a hard time surviving at the same time. It was a depressed feeling that neither Old K nor Tong Yao had experienced before.

When Tong Yao's Azir and Taliyah reached level 3, she found that her opponent had a much stronger presence. She took a look at Old K who was busy protecting his own jungle. Tong Yao sighed, gave up the idea of attacking, and went back to base…...She moved the camera to check on bot, which was the lane that would most likely lead ZGDX to victory in this match.

She saw the enemy Cho'Gath was wagging its tail like a Pekingese.

Tong Yao felt despair all of a sudden.

-- --Cho'Gath was a special kind of champion. When a player played this champion with quick hands, they could move and slash at the same time. The move had a special term in the game “move A.” It was a basic skill for top ad players to have. When a top player was using Cho'Gath, the animation of the champion's movement couldn't match up to the actual action because of how quickly the inputs were being sent to the game. The result was that the movement and tail wouldn't appear at the same time on screen, thus making it look like the tail was wagging.

An ad's Cho'Gath that was wagging its tail was evidence that this ad was at least one of the top ads in the major league. They could handle a hard to maneuver champion and were fast on the keyboard.

-- --Team OP's ad didn't pick Cho'Gath randomly, he was on equal footing with Lu Sicheng.

The line up of Tong Yao's team actually lacked carry. In late game team fights, only Lu Sicheng could carry them-- --Team OP seemed to have figured this out beforehand. Their jungler kept attacking ZGDX's bot in the early game. Though OP's jungler failed several times, Lu Sicheng was losing his patience. When his champion reached level 6, he failed a tower dive and died to the enemy Gragas, resulting in two kills and one of ZGDX's turrets.

ZGDX's disadvantage was obvious ever since the enemy started to solely target bot.

Lu Sicheng said with eyebrows crossed: “This round is mine.”

No one said anything. ZGDX was in a difficult situation and all they were trying to do was to drag the match into the late game-- --They had made up some of the gap between their economy and dragged the match till the 35th minute……

The ratio of kills was still the initial 2:0.

At this point, both sides were focusing on farming, grabbing resources in the jungles, and continuing to develop their champions.

There was a period of five minutes when neither side had crossed the river……

Towards the later part of the match, Tong Yao was so drowsy that she couldn't think straight.

Finally, it was the last team fight; whoever won this team fight would win the match. Because Lu Sicheng had positioned himself further ahead of the team, when Tong Yao attacked Cho'Gath, she pushed Cho'Gath into Lu Sicheng's face. The mistake caused ZGDX to lose the team fight. Team OP pushed ZGDX's base and ZGDX lost the skirmish-- --

The sound of the bursting of the nexus started playing.

Tong Yao had taken the blame for their loss which would have fallen on Lu Sicheng for his impatience earlier. Tong Yao threw down her mouse and started to bite her fingers.

Lu Sicheng watched his own team's nexus blow up, then took a glance at Tong Yao: “Do you have anything against me?”

He was laughing at her last mistake despite it taking his life.

However, Lu Sicheng seemed quite relaxed, unlike the dark face he normally had when they lost to Korean teams in previous skirmishes-- --Tong Yao scratched her head, carefully took a look at him. She guessed that perhaps he was somewhat satisfied with the fact that the team was able to survive the pressure in the early game and successfully dragged the match to the point that they had victory within their grasp……

In comparison to the other times when the team had no hope at winning whatsoever, perhaps they could win the next match.

Even if Team OP picked an unusual line up again, at least ZGDX was prepared for that.

Additionally, Tong Yao had decided to practice all the mid champions except Yasuo.

In her mind, she had reviewed her performance in this match and knew what she needed to do to improve. She backed out of the game and let Lu Yue join the rest of the team for the second match. She held her knees and watched at the side as her teammates got ready for the second skirmish.
