Chapter 215 How come he also caught it at level like you?

at the same time.

Seeing VG's last two moves, they directly locked on Jarvan and Brand.

The people in the audience were fine and didn't react much.

After all, top lane Prince and support Brand are relatively common choices in Rank.

Instead, the SKT players were stunned first.

Kkoma, in particular, immediately noticed something was wrong.

"Why is it a mage assistant?"

"This shouldn't be the case!"

"Skateboard shoes are best suited for hard support, because only in this way can they exert suppression power."

"Even if they are afraid that our troll is a swing position, so they don't choose a hard support, then it should be a soft support like Lulu, right?"

"What the hell is a Fire Man Assistant?"

"Compared to other supports, the only advantage of a mage support is that it can make up for the damage, and Brand's advantage is even more obvious. As long as he can use his ultimate in a team battle, he can easily deal a lot of AOE. In addition, Brand has a passive skill, so he is very cost-effective as a support."

"But judging from the lineup, it seems like a total mismatch!"

"Enchantress, Skateboard Shoes, and Kindred are all single-point damage dealers, while Jarvan and Brand are team-fighting types..."

"No...VG can't be that stupid!"

"Could it be that? The opponent is also wavering in top and support? This prince is actually a wavering position?"

"You know what, VG is really capable of letting Brand go to the top lane!"

This time, Kkoma guessed right.

The prince is indeed a swing position.

But he was only half right.

That is, this prince actually swayed to the jungle position.

Because this is Kkoma's habit, he only sees that the bottom lane duo doesn't match, but forgets that Kindred and LeBlanc don't match either.

The reason why he couldn't think of this in a short time was entirely because his coaching philosophy was completely different from that of Hongmi.

Hongmi hopes that the players can perform at their best and show what they are best at, even if it is not a strong hero in this version.

Therefore, Redmi is very tolerant of VG people.

As long as it works, choose whatever you want.

But Kkoma is different. He hopes that his players can listen to his command, let them play whatever they choose, and follow his rhythm.

So for Kkoma, it is not impossible to let jungle Kindred cooperate with mid lane LeBlanc...

At this moment, Kkoma suddenly remembered the space that SKT encountered in the previous game, and he suddenly had an idea.

"Wait? Fire Man and the Prince? Large-scale AOE?"

"Could it be that the opponent is planning to use Brand and Jarvan's AOE to attack our back row, first cripple our back row, and then use Leblanc and Skateboard to harvest them?"

"These two heroes are very good at restraining the nurse."

"Because the nurse can't handle this AOE, she will be easily melted instantly."

"I understand! The other side is afraid that we will choose a nurse!"

"Haha! I will definitely not make the same mistake I made in the last round again this time!"

"Don't choose a nurse as a support, even Tam!"

"Tahm Kench supports! The troll is coming!"

However, Kkoma didn't know it at this time.

It was the flash of inspiration that just now made him make the decision he regretted the most in this mid-season tournament.

And with Tam locked on, the lineups of both sides gradually became clear.

At the same time, in the commentary booth.

Looking at the lineups of both sides, the colonel also began to explain.

"The lineups of both teams should have been determined."

"In this round, VG is on the blue side, with Jarvan IV on top, Kindred in the jungle, Leblanc in the mid lane, and Skateboard Shoes and Brand in the bottom lane."

"SKT is on the red side, with Troll on top, Jarvan IV in the jungle, Ekko in the middle, and Annie and Tam in the bottom lane..."

"What do you think of this lineup?"

“It feels a bit strange.”

"SKT is a bit too tanky, so it feels like they lack damage, while VG's damage feels a bit too high. In the front row, there is only Jarvan II."

Seeing this, MLXG at the side couldn't help but interrupt.

"And I feel like the mid and jungle don't match well on VG's side."

"Icon is actually a mid laner who needs the jungler's help to control the situation, because only in this way can his laning pressure be realized, but Kindred's early weakness is too obvious, and he is not suitable for counter-camping, because with the mark, it is easy for SKT to calculate the path to the jungle."

"This Kindred now gives people the feeling that... it's hard to catch in the middle, and it's hard to catch in the bottom."

Jide, who was standing by, asked with a smile.

"Is it possible that VG is planning to use the laning advantage of Leblanc and Skateboards to help Kindred invade the jungle, get the mark, and let Kindred play in the late game?"

Hearing this, MLXG immediately shook his head.

"Then VG's support shouldn't have chosen this. Even if Braum and Alistar were banned, there are other supports to choose from. Brand will definitely not be chosen."

Just as the three of them were discussing, the colonel's expression changed slightly and he started shouting.

"Huh? Something's wrong!"

"Is VG...changing positions?"

"The prince has changed his position!"

"Wait! Why is this Prince in the jungle position? Then shouldn't this Kindred be... the top unit?"

As soon as the colonel finished speaking, Jide and MLXG on the side immediately looked in the direction of the voice, and then saw that at the last moment when the lineup was determined, VG's Prince and Kindred switched positions!
Seeing this scene, the audience immediately burst into an uproar.

"Ah? He's not the top prince?"

"Jungle Prince, top lane Kindred?"

"It's rocking again, isn't it?"

"You know what, it's really reasonable to have Kindred as the top laner. Don't you think about what position Saint Spear came from?"

"Long arms, use basic attacks to deal damage, you're definitely an ADC!"

"And in this way, the mid-jungle combination of Jarvan IV and LeBlanc will be much easier to play against SKT. At least they won't be as weak as Kindred."

"Eh? If that's the case, then if Kindred takes the road, won't the trolls be in trouble?"

In fact, Duke was completely stunned when he saw that the prince who was laning against him suddenly turned into Qian Jue.

It is easy for the Troll to fight against the Prince.

Although the hero Prince was once a T0 top laner and appeared in many games, because of his strong performance at the time, Prince was weakened several times and finally had to be reduced to a jungler.

From the perspective of skill mechanism, the troll also restrains the prince.

The prince is the kind of warrior who retreats after using a set of skills to consume energy, and then comes back to use a set of skills after the skill CD is refreshed. The troll's skills can restore his status, so he is not very afraid of the prince's consumption.

But if it's Kindred, the situation is different.

Of course, Kindred’s burst isn’t as high as that of the Prince, and his ability to retain enemies isn’t as good as that of the Prince.

But Kindred has long arms!

If the Troll wants to use his passive health recovery, he must find a way to push the line. Otherwise, relying solely on the little health recovered by the automatic death of minions is completely a drop in the bucket.

But in front of Kindred, the Troll still wants to push the line?
This is the horror of top lane AD.

As long as you can press a little, you can keep pressing.

Suppression from level one to level eighteen.

Unless the jungler can train himself to death!

So the moment he saw Kindred, Duke put on a mask of pain and subconsciously looked at Blank beside him, as if asking with his eyes: Will you help the top laner in this game?

Although Duke didn't say anything, Blank actually understood.

But understanding it doesn't mean he has a solution.

Then Duke heard Blank's sigh and a soul-searching question in the voice chat.

"If I come to gank the top lane to help you, I will definitely take the initiative."

"Once I'm counter-camped, I'll definitely be the first one to be crippled. You can't get in even if you're playing as a troll."

"If this happens, do you think you can help me guard Kindred's mark in the jungle?"

After hearing this, Duke fell silent.

Because this... is the biggest problem of the trolls!

The hero, Troll, has strong solo laning ability and strong recovery ability.

But it’s weak in teamfights! It has no control skills! It’s too passive!

In other words, if the situation Blank described really happened, even if he went to find Kindred, he could only watch Kindred go in, and he wouldn't be able to keep her at all!

Thinking of this, Duke also sighed and said.

"Forget it, you guys should just play mid and jungle, I'll handle the pressure."

Seeing Duke agreed, Blank shook his head and began to think about the strategy for this game.

For the excavator, level 3 is a critical burst period, and the first wave of ganks is very important.

But the situation in this round is special, and it is impossible to wait until level three to take action.

Because in the opponent's lineup, the biggest threats in the late game are Leblanc and Kindred.

If you want to control Leblanc, you must build a good rhythm in the early mid and jungle. If you want to control Kindred, you must find a way to prevent Kindred from getting the mark.

As long as Kindred can't get the mark, no matter how good the economy is, it will be useless.

This is why 90% of Kindred are junglers.

"I don't need to go to the river crab. Skateboard Shoes' early suppression ability is too strong. It's useless for me to go. Besides, the opponent's Kindred is the top laner. He can't risk losing the minion line to get this mark."

"Try to get to the river crab in top lane! The opponent will definitely try to help Kindred get this mark."

"I said I was helping Kindred, but actually it was a fight between me and the opposing jungler."

"Because Qian Jue only needs to participate in the kill, and does not need to kill it himself."

"And the first group of river crabs will spawn at 2 minutes and 30 seconds!"

"At this point in time, I can only reach level 2, and I'm just one group of wild monsters away from reaching level 3."

"We can only think of a way to punish them!"

"But there's no need to fight hard. I still have an advantage."

"That means the excavator can use passive sensing to hear the other side's position!"

"If I can determine the position of the Prince, then I will have the opportunity to gank the middle lane first, allowing Ekko to take the lane and let him support me!"

Thinking about it this way, Blank's thoughts gradually became clearer and he made a decision immediately.

"I can't reach level 3 anyway, so why not kill the second group of monsters first!"

“Just swipe the first group, then immediately go to the river to find the enemy jungler’s position!”

"It just so happens that the opposing jungler really likes to gank people at level 2, who knows, he might even be able to counter-amputee us!"

"If the prince hadn't come, I would have captured him directly!"

"Although I don't have the E skill, I can't get close to the opponent quickly. It's not possible. I will just use the flash to catch him!"

This time, Blank made the right decision.

Whether it is giving up a group of wild monsters and going to the river early to use the passive to find someone, or deciding to use flash to catch Leblanc directly when there is a chance, it is very decisive.

It was so decisive that Lin Dong was completely unaware of it.

Lin Dong's thoughts at this time were the same as Blank expected.

"For a single Kindred, the marks will just depend on luck."

"Brother Saint Spear, you have the lane, come to the river in 2:30 seconds."

"If the mark spawns in the lower river, then I can't do anything. Even if I change lanes, it will be too late to take it. The opposing jungler will definitely come to take it."

"I won't gank this round. I'll level up first."

Hearing Lin Dong's words, Xiao Duan couldn't help but tease.

"Huh? Why didn't you catch it at level 2 this time?"

"I can't catch him." Lin Dong was a little helpless. "There's Tam in the bottom lane. Although the mid laner Ekko is a melee fighter, he definitely won't use his basic attack to get the last hit in the early game. Instead, he'll hide behind and use his Q skill to get the last hit. As for the top lane, he's a little short on damage, so forget it. We'll talk about it later."

After saying that, Lin Dong went to kill the toad and then the blue buff.

However, this time, Blank's actions were beyond Lin Dong's expectations.

Just when Lin Dong was hitting the blue buff, Leng Shao's exclamation suddenly came from the voice chat.

"Fuck, this excavator... is crazy!"

"Lin Dong! Why is the jungler on the opposite side also following your example and coming to me right away at level 2?"

"Oh no, he has the red buff and he has used his flash, I have to use my flash!"

After hearing what Leng Shao said, Lin Dong immediately realized that something was wrong. Instead of looking at the middle lane, he directly opened the scoring panel.

"Wait? Level 2 catch?"

"He only cleared one set of jungle and then went to the middle lane?"

"Oh no, he really stole my chicken. This is really troublesome."

"Originally, LeBlanc had the lane control in the middle lane, but now she has no lane control, and the opponent's Ekko can come to support in advance."

"The opponent didn't even plan to let the crab go to the river, but wanted to force the attack!"

However, although Lin Dong reacted at this time, it was too late.

With Leng Shao's flash, the lane rights in the middle were reversed.

The time of 2 minutes and 30 seconds soon arrived, and the river crab came out, followed by Kindred's mark that appeared immediately.

To be exact, it’s the river crab on the upper road!

Suddenly, Lin Dong's face froze.

On the other side, Blank looked happy.

"It's really the Upper River Crab!"

"If it's the river crab, it's absolutely impossible to fight a small-scale team battle. After all, Annie and Tam's combat capabilities in the early stage are too weak."

"But if it's the upper river crab... we can just fight it right away if we have a chance!"

"And since Leblanc didn't flash, we have a great chance of winning!"

"Because everyone is at level 2 now, if Leblanc wants to deal full damage, she must use her W skill to attack and trigger the mark damage of her Q skill, and cannot use it to escape!"

Thinking of this, Blank immediately spoke.

"I'll sell it! Seduce the enchantress to come and kill me! You kill the enchantress first!"

This time, Blank's plan succeeded again.

The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.

At the crab in the upper river, seeing that the excavator dared to move forward and even directly lifted up the nearest prince, Leng Shao said nothing and directly stepped on it with QW, and also put on ignite, trying to cooperate with his teammates' damage to kill the excavator.

But he never expected that the moment he rushed forward with the W skill, the three SKT players suddenly changed direction at the same time!
The troll used the E skill in return and used the pillar to block the retreat of the enchantress.

At the same time, Ekko's figure suddenly disappeared from the original place, and then suddenly appeared on the face of the enchantress!

Looking at Faker's operation, Lin Dong's pupils suddenly shrank!
"and many more?"

"Ekko's Q flash!"
