Chapter 204: Can this thing be turned into a cockroach?
"Fuck? This can be exchanged for three?"
"Yeah! This rat didn't do any damage at all this time and died instantly. Is that okay?"
"Turtle, this time Leng Shao went to the top lane to interrupt the teleportation, he really did a great job!"
"We can't help it. In the early game, tanks are definitely more important than soft supports and ADs. Maokai's teleport was interrupted, and Twisted Fate didn't make it here. Flash Wolves don't even have stable control in the bottom lane. They can only run away with their heads down."
"Won't this wave of Flash Wolves be a huge loss?"
In fact, Karsa also knew that he had suffered a huge loss.
As the saying goes, one wrong step leads to all wrong.
It was supposed to be a perfect first blood rhythm, but it turned out like this. No one could accept it.
More importantly... to be honest, looking at VG's familiar rhythm, he felt particularly familiar with it.
"Isn't it... the same tactic used against SKT again? Why does this tactic always work?"
"Why would I fall for the same trick a second time?"
"No! It's not that I was fooled for the second time! It's not that the opponent only knows this routine, but this routine is too suitable for VG!"
"Because the top lane is hard to catch, to catch the middle lane we have to fight the mid-jungle, and the opponent's mid laner's laning ability is too strong. Unless we have an absolute advantage in BP, or our mid laner's laning ability is stronger, the middle lane is also difficult to catch."
“So we can only catch it!”
"Because the bottom lane battle mainly depends on the lineup of both teams, and the individual strength of the players is secondary!"
"It is precisely because of this that the opposing jungler can guess my movements and is able to do this with one trick to dominate the opponent!"
However, Karsa had no idea at this moment that this time, Lin Dong actually didn’t think so much at all.
As for why this trick was used again to turn defeat into victory, the reason is actually very simple.
Lin Dong opened.
For most LPL viewers, they have a deep impression of Karsa. Of course, what is impressive is his terrifying map control ability during his time as a jungler in RNG. It is precisely because of this that he has the title of "Brother Radar" instead of the title of "Wolf King" that he had in Flash Wolves.
Just like most LPL viewers must be unfamiliar with the current Flash Wolves' support SwordArt, but if you mention SN team's later support Sheshe, they will definitely have heard of him.
Therefore, Lin Dong was very familiar with Karsa's playing style, and with the 50-50 system in his hand, he was able to force himself to be on par with the opponent in terms of both strength and awareness. In this case, it was no problem to control Karsa.
Of course, as Karsa analyzed.
If you want to use this tactic to defeat Flash Wolves, there is a crucial prerequisite.
That is, the mid laner must have strong laning ability.
So... Leng Shao, the king of single kills, played a crucial role.
Moreover, Leng Shao's presence will even occasionally bring VG a bigger surprise.
Just like this wave...
Lin Dong's original intention was just to let Leng Shao go up and interrupt the tree's teleport, so after seeing the bottom lane win, he never looked at the top lane again.
It was not until Lin Dong took Morgana's head, escaped from Card's pursuit, and then successfully returned to the city under the cover of his teammates that he was shocked to make the discovery.
"Wait? Master Leng, why don't you go back to the city?"
"I just asked you to interrupt the tree's teleportation, why did you go head-to-head with him?"
"Why did you switch lanes in this game?"
After hearing Lin Dong's words, Leng Shao's answer was also very simple. He spoke.
"Nonsense, how can I kill alone if I'm not in the same lane?"
“???” Lin Dong.
The result is the next second.
Leblanc suddenly attacked in front of the top lane defensive tower. She first used a QW combo to trick out Maokai's W skill, then used the second stage of W skill to return to its original position at the speed of light, and directly brought Maokai out of the range of the defensive tower. At the moment when Maokai turned around to use the Q skill, she immediately threw out the E skill, triggering the mark while chaining Maokai, and then immediately followed up with flash. Even if the opponent's Maokai gave up the flash and retreated immediately, it was of no avail, and was finally killed by Leblanc.
For a moment, Lin Dong was embarrassed.
"No... did you really kill him alone when you said you would?"
"And your second stage W skill is indeed a bit thin!"
"Nonsense!" Leng Shao rolled his eyes and replied, "How many times have I been a traitor when playing LeBlanc's W? I didn't take enough of Treant's W, Nautilus' R, and Thresh's second stage Q, right? How could I not know that the second stage of W can bring people and skills back?"
"..."
After these words were spoken, Lin Donggan was silenced.
You are such a talented kid.
When an insider can figure out how to kill an opponent alone?
He is indeed a person who puts all his talents into single kills!
On the other side, Karsa couldn't hold it anymore and couldn't help but speak directly in the voice chat.
"Why did you want to kill him? Wouldn't he take you with him when he returned?"
"If I don't use W on him, the mark will be triggered early and I will die too! Have you forgotten that he hit me during the previous teleportation?"
"..."
This time, Karsa was silent too.
He even looked a little dazed, and suddenly couldn't tell the rhythm of the previous wave, whether it was VG's one for three or one for four!
Because theoretically speaking, if it wasn't for the previous interruption by Ahri that forcibly stole the damage of a set of skills, it would be unlikely that I would be killed alone in this wave!
Could it be that this was also taken into account by the opposing jungler?
After all... this scene is too familiar!
When VG played against SKT, wasn't the bottom lane also in chaos, and then Yasuo switched to the top lane and killed the top lane Gragas alone?
After being silent for a long time and feeling helpless, Karsa finally made the same decision as EDG.
"Try to delay it..."
"At least, Card is level 6. I can flash and refresh, and the tree can teleport and refresh. We still have a rhythm."
At the same time, in VG's lounge.
Looking at the familiar rhythm of the second goal on the screen, Hongmi and Gao Jun were both stunned.
Then Hongmi spoke.
"It's strange. Why in these two games, the bottom and middle lanes were fine, but the top lane broke down first?"
Hearing Hongmi's words, Gao Jun shrugged and said.
"No way. When you're on the front line, you just need to mess around. Why do you need laning skills? It's enough to be able to laning. The key is support awareness and the ability to start a team fight."
"And if the top laner is too focused on laning, it will easily become a breakthrough point. Otherwise, you won't..."
Gao Jun didn't finish his words, but Hongmi actually knew what he meant.
During the spring season, VG had two top laners, and he chose to let Saint Spear play in most games instead of Zhu Xiaolong, who was good at warrior top lane, for this reason.
VG’s mid laner Leng Shao already has a breakthrough point that only focuses on laning. If there is another one, what will happen?
So Hongmi’s idea at that time was exactly the same as Gao Jun’s.
As for the top unit, it is not a good thing to focus too much on laning.
Anyway, now the early stage is to focus on the mid-jungle rhythm, and in the later stage, rely on ADC to carry the game.
Even when Zhu Xiaolong decided to leave VG before his contract expired and join other teams to seek a starting position and better development, Hongmi agreed without a second thought.
But now it seems that there is more to it than that! The laning ability of the top laner seems to be equally important.
You can hang around, but you can’t let someone kill you alone, right?
Also...what if the designer suddenly gets creative and makes some version changes, requiring the top laner to step up and carry?
After all, no one knows what the designer is thinking.
For example, Redmi has been complaining about the changes made to the summer season recently.
The little dragon suddenly has additional elemental attributes. Once you get multiple elemental dragons in the later stage, its strength will be very high.
If you want to take the little dragon, you must be very aggressive in the bottom lane and suppress the opponent's health as much as possible to facilitate the fight against the little dragon.
In this way, Sima Laozei's role is not so obvious, but Uzi's role is magnified by the version.
The key is that QG actually let them go! RNG immediately took action and took them down.
The two teams didn't get along well in the first place, if the two teams met again in the summer season...
To be honest, the picture is so beautiful that Redmi can't even think about it.
So at this moment, Redmi suddenly felt a little regretful.
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn’t have let Allen Chu… No! I shouldn’t have let Brother Long go!
Anyway, the boss is rich! It's great to keep him!
However, thinking of this, Hongmi was suddenly stunned, and subconsciously looked at Li Yue who was drowsy in the corner. He immediately became suspicious and muttered to himself.
"Huh? Wait?"
"The current players in VG were all promoted by the boss, and they are all very strong."
"Especially Leng Shao, she pushed hard against all odds to let him play, and was even scolded by VG fans at the time. But in the end, it turned out that Leng Shao's laning ability was indeed better than Hou Ye's."
"Although the boss does have a lot of money, she's really not stupid!"
"During this transfer period, she did buy a few players who were not as famous as Leng Shao at the time. But who knows... maybe they are also the same as Leng Shao?"
"Otherwise she wouldn't have asked me to help train the second team for no reason."
"No, after this mid-season tournament is over, I'll go back and train them seriously! Just in case there's a surprise!"
"Especially the top laner. He is quite famous in the Korean server. I just don't know how he will perform in the arena, but it's worth a try."
"Anyway, there's no point in training these guys in the first team, especially Lin Dong. His strength won't drop even if he plays badly. Just leave him alone."
At this time in the VG base, The Shy, who was excited because he was finally promoted from a WE trainee to a main top laner who could play in the secondary league, had no idea that because of Lin Dong's mediocre tactics in the Mid-Season Championship, his own destiny would begin to change drastically.
At the same time, at the competition site, in the game.
Karsa was helpless about the current situation, but Lin Dong had a clear idea.
After getting a kill and clearing a round of wild monsters, the first thing you do when you get home is to buy the Dark Seal and upgrade the potions you have to hunter potions, and then buy a pair of straw sandals.
Normally, hunter potions are bought by junglers who do quite a lot of damage in the jungle, but Fizz has passive damage reduction, AOE damage and continuous damage, and is very comfortable to use in the jungle with the hunter's amulet, so he is obviously no longer on that list.
But I still choose to equip it this way.
the reason is simple.
As a jungler, Fizz has no control skills in the early stage, only one slowing skill, so the success rate of ganking is very low.
But just because it’s not easy to gank successfully doesn’t mean you can’t annoy the opponent!
Because Fizz's Q skill is a directional charge skill, he can basically touch the opponent in every wave of ganks.
So this time, Lin Dong’s strategy is to consume!
You don't have to succeed in ganking, but you just have to force your way in with Q to consume the opponent's health, and then turn around and leave!
Just like this wave.
Lin Dong certainly knew that Flash Wolves hoped to get Card to level 6 and immediately use Card's ultimate to support and try to break the predicament.
So he came directly to the middle.
The moment he saw the card, he immediately took advantage of his movement speed and Q'd it up without saying a word.
Although the red buff on his body had disappeared, Lin Dong was not panicked.
Because he knew very well that at this point in time, Ahri had just returned to the city and had not come over, so the success rate of the gank was very low. No jungler would choose to counter-gank at this point in time.
So he boldly used the E skill to dodge the yellow card of the Card, and then stepped on it.
Seeing that the opposing jungler Fizz would appear at this time, Maple obviously did not expect it and could only fight and retreat. Seeing the yellow card being avoided, the E skill hit, and being stuck again, he was forced to exchange blood with Fizz and finally returned to the tower.
Looking at the little fishman who suddenly appeared, Maple was a little confused at first.
"What does this little fishman mean? He suddenly rushes out to attack me at this time, but he can't kill me. Is this necessary?"
"In this way, when we fight in the jungle, won't he have no health advantage?"
At this time, Karsa was also stunned for a moment, so he subconsciously clicked on the equipment bar, but the next second, his brows immediately frowned.
"Dark Seal, Hunter Potion? What does that mean?"
"The Killing Ring can indeed improve the healing effect of potions, and it also has an effect on hunter potions, but Fizz doesn't hurt when he's clearing the jungle, so why would he need this..."
At this point, Karsa suddenly choked, and the scene in the middle lane just now immediately came to his mind.
At that moment, he suddenly understood!
"No! The little fishman on the opposite side is not here to capture you! He is here to exchange blood with you!"
"He has a hunter potion, and with the killing ring, he can definitely trade blood with you in the middle lane, and then go to the jungle to clear some wild monsters to recover his blood."
"But you can't! If you want to recover your health, you have to go back to the city!"
"In this case, you will probably be blown up when facing Leblanc in the middle lane!"
"Because if he can come once, he can come a second time!"
"Besides, it's useless for me to enter his jungle! On the contrary, it will only give him more opportunities."
"He has skill E, which makes him untargetable. I don't have flash, so I can't touch him at all!"
"Even if we have Flash, we may not be able to push him up as long as he is determined to run!"
"Besides... you can't avoid Fizz's consumption! Because his Q skill is a locking skill, it's useless even if I come to counter-camp. I can only rely on flash, or you can throw a yellow card first to freeze the opponent!"
After hearing this, Maple finally reacted and then felt a chill.
Sure enough, as soon as Karsa finished speaking, Ahri, who had just come online not far away, immediately rushed over!
It was still a simple and unpretentious consumption combo. Although Maple dodged the E skill by moving around, he still triggered a thunder.
Maple finally used the yellow card to force LeBlanc back, but unexpectedly, Fizz, who had just killed four birds not far away, came again!
And the blood volume is quite healthy!
On the other hand, I was being consumed one after another, and I would probably be on the killing line soon!
For a moment, Maple put on a mask of pain and shouted in the voice chat.
"No, Leblanc is easy to beat against Card, so I made magic resistance at the beginning of the game."
"Not only does LeBron have a kill advantage now, but this Fizz keeps annoying me."
"How can I fight back?"
At the same time, in the VG lounge below the stage.
Looking at the Fizz controlled by Lin Dong on the screen, Hongmi was confused again.
"no?"
"Why can he turn a hero like Fizz into a cockroach?"
