Hello to all LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is World Game Hub.
Recently, surprising match narratives have emerged in both the Chinese and Korean leagues. In yesterday's LPL second-stage match, TES unexpectedly defeated JDG with a 2-0 score, securing a three-win streak.

The performance of TES's two returning champion players in this match was exceptionally outstanding, earning renewed admiration.
JKL and Annie erupt, TES wins four versus five
JDG was the minor king team of the LPL region in the first stage, also widely regarded as the strongest team besides BLG. They easily swept AL in the previous round, showing good form. TES, after being crushed by IG in their first match, bounced back from their lowest point and entered an upward trend, making this round's match highly anticipated.

In the first game, JDG took initiative early. Xiaoxu's Yorick, despite being caught and killed once, succeeded in several small-scale skirmishes, continuously securing kills to help JDG gain advantage. At 22 minutes, they secured Baron through a dragon fight victory, making Yorick seemingly unstoppable with a 5-1 record.
Then at 25 minutes, Tian's Jarvan IV made a major contribution. In a dragon fight, he decisively initiated, using his ultimate to isolate Yorick. TES counterattacked, winning the fight while securing the dragon soul. Here, Tian's early dragon control deserves mention; despite being behind in kills, he steadily secured three dragons.


JDG later seized an opportunity top lane to kill an inexperienced Jayce, then started Baron to force a fight. TES countered with four versus five, JKL stepped up, performing extreme kiting at low health alongside teammates to win the fight, then ended the game in the next push. This game, JKL performed consistently throughout, earning MVP, while Tian's Jarvan IV also played a crucial role.
The biggest spinner awakens, JKL enters national team selection
In the second game, JDG's top laner directly deployed Vayne, attempting a single-point breakthrough. Early game, they indeed coordinated with teammates to gain a huge advantage and achieved a lane kill against Nautilus. However, with TES's top laner collapsing, other lanes stabilized. Tian's Kindred maintained good development throughout and secured two kills early, using hunting tempo to help the team gain advantage in team fights.

Although JDG's Vayne developed well, her team fight impact was limited. Bottom lane, GALA's Ezreal performed extremely poorly, dying repeatedly in fights, even face-checking with E.
TES continued winning consecutively, with arrogant Tian achieving a godlike 10-0 record throughout the match.
Ultimately, TES swept JDG successfully, securing a three-win streak while further climbing the rankings. Currently, IG has a three-win streak, BLG a two-win streak, plus TES, these three teams rank top three.

This match holds significant meaning for TES, especially for JKL. Firstly, as LPL's biggest "spinner," TES started the second stage poorly, also facing audience ridicule due to off-field reports, but then directly bounced back from the bottom with a three-win streak. Simultaneously, since JKL defeated GALA, an Asian Games reserve, it means JKL also has a chance to be selected for the Asian Games.
369 becomes the unlucky one, TES reverses off-field reputation
Here we can analyze JKL's possibility of national team selection. Currently, LPL's reserve bottom lane candidates total three. The first stage's best performer was GALA, then WBG's bottom laner Elk, widely recognized, appeared stronger in overall first-stage strength. But the second stage, WBG's results are quite poor, Elk's performance greatly limited.

The third is JKL. Originally, no one thought JKL could enter Asian Games reserves, but TES indeed proved competitive. After a crushing defeat at the start, they felt shame and then courage, everyone striving to improve, quickly reversing their reputation.
Personally, if TES can maintain this momentum subsequently, JKL truly should be LPL national team bottom lane's first priority choice. Jungler Tian also has a chance, as LPL bringing substitutes could include a jungler.

After TES's three-win streak, the most unfortunate player is undoubtedly 369. After being crushed by SaintVicious in EW qualifiers, 369 felt the sky collapsed, hopeless, directly choosing to step down. Yet, just one match later, TES became abnormal—how did brothers suddenly become so fierce? The small top laner also played decently, leaving 369 only watching from the bench.
