Chapter 225 The Poisonous Sunlight
at the same time.
Seeing that everyone returned to the city at the same time, but only Tristana was online, the SKT players realized that something was wrong.
Wolf frowned and immediately reminded in the voice.
"The opponent's support is gone, so be careful in the mid-jungle fight."
Hearing Wolf's words, Bengi, who was about to invade the jungle, was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted.
"Is the jungler going to protect him?"
"I guess they guessed that we might invade the wild area, so they came to support us in advance."
"But the Rat hero is useless. The opponent's support can only protect him temporarily, but can it protect him forever?"
"But in the middle..."
Thinking of this, Bengi shook his head and gave up the idea of invading the wild area.
And Faker understood what he meant at this time, so he said.
"Help me set up vision. Rat can't kill me by himself. You just need to defend against the female tank on the opposite side."
"Our bottom lane was too stressful."
"Especially the support on the opposite side, it's so fun now."
"You go ahead and clear the jungle first. I'll go to the bottom lane right after I clear this wave of soldiers."
"If the opposing support still dares to protect their jungler, then we will do the same as they did in the last game and go directly to the bottom lane and cross the tower!"
After hearing Faker's words, Wolf and Bengi both nodded at the same time.
Wolf, in particular, spoke up.
"If you can control Tristana first, I will use skill E immediately. Tristana probably won't even be able to use any movement skills."
"Besides...if the opponent defends, we can still fight!"
"The support will lose experience if he roams around. The opponent's jungler only ganked enemies instead of clearing the jungle in the early stage. He must be behind in level now. The hero Rat's jungle clearing speed is not fast. By then, we will definitely have an overall level advantage. The advantage in level in the early stage will be enough to make up for the disadvantage in kills!"
"It's a good opportunity to disrupt the rhythm of the opposing duo in the bottom lane before they reach level 6!"
Therefore, everyone in SKT quickly reached a consensus.
And it's not even just them.
Even the colonel in the commentary booth thought so at first.
After hearing what Mlxg said, he was stunned at first, then asked back.
"But the problem is that if this happens, VG will lose the bottom lane advantage that they worked so hard to get, right?"
"At this point in time, the support has a kill advantage, and the SKT bottom lane duo has died twice in a row, and their level is low."
“Now asking the support to help the jungler to clear the jungle, isn’t that putting the cart before the horse?”
"And even if there's one more person to help, the damage is all done by the rat, so clearing the jungle won't be much faster, right?"
After the colonel said this, Mlxg also fell silent.
Because the colonel's analysis is actually correct.
Normally, you should rely on the advantage lane to snowball.
It always feels a bit wrong to let the bottom laner who has the advantage in the laning phase give up the advantage voluntarily to help the jungler through the weak period.
The question is, could VG be so stupid?
With doubts in his heart, Mlxg subconsciously looked at the screen in front of him, trying to find some clues from it.
until……
He saw that with the cooperation of Rat and Leona, the living monsters in the jungle began to be cleared at an astonishing speed.
At that moment, Mlxg was stunned!
"Huh? Isn't this right?"
"How is it possible that they can clear the jungle so quickly?"
Hearing Mlxg's words, the colonel and Jide beside him were both stunned.
When it comes to commentating the game, Mlxg is definitely not as good as them.
After all, they make a living by being commentators.
But when it comes to understanding the speed of clearing the jungle, the two of them combined are no match for Mlxg.
So I remember that I asked this question almost from the first person perspective.
"Jungle clearing speed? Is VG's jungle clearing speed very fast?"
"Yes, and it's... ridiculously fast!" Mlxg took a deep breath and explained, "I've never seen such a fast jungle clearing speed! Normally it can't be this fast! Even if two people clear it together."
"It's fine to let the female tank help take damage in the front, it's normal, but the rat is only level 2 now, this speed... is definitely not right!"
After hearing what Mlxg said, even the people in the live broadcast room were stunned and started asking questions.
"Ah? What do you mean?"
"Fuck? Could it be that Xiang Guo means... someone opened it?"
"Isn't it going to be confirmed?"
"It's unlikely that it's open, but it could be a bug."
"To be honest, I also felt that the speed at which this rat cleared the jungle was not right at first."
At the same time, even the nosy director deliberately moved the camera to the wild area.
And this time, Mlxg finally saw the details clearly!
Looking at the skillful jungle clearing movements of Leona and Twitch, his eyes suddenly widened and he understood instantly.
"Wait! I get it!"
"This damage... is definitely not from the rat! It's from the female tank!"
"It's the passive skill of the female tank!"
"I was wondering why these two could clear the jungle so quickly! So this is how it is!"
"Leona uses her passive on wild monsters, and then Rat's poison triggers Leona's passive!"
"This way, the jungle clearing speed will be increased, Twitch will be able to quickly catch up to the level, and the time Leona spends away from the laning area will be greatly reduced!"
"This time, VG's rhythm is really good!"
As soon as Mlxg said this, the audience went wild.
"Fuck? Is this even possible?"
"It seems to be true! Continuous damage seems to be able to trigger Leona's passive effect, but I didn't expect it to be effective against wild monsters too!"
"I thought that Braum's assist in the jungle was amazing, but I didn't expect that Leona's assist with Twitch was even more amazing!"
"Wait? If the rat's poisoning effect can trigger Leona's passive, then wouldn't Cassiopeia and Alchemist also be able to..."
"The problem is that those two things can't fight in the wild, right? In comparison, Rat fighting in the wild... wow, wow, wow, too talented, worthy of being the God of Winter."
"What a poisonous sun!"
At the same time, Lin Dong, who had quickly cleared the wild area with Xiao Duan, finally showed a smile on his face.
With the help of the female tank, the speed of clearing the jungle is indeed very fast.
This is the magic of the combination of Rat and Female Tank!
Leona's passive skill [Sunlight] has the effect that each of her skills will mark the enemy for 1.5 seconds. When other friendly heroes cause damage to the marked enemy, the mark will be consumed and additional magic damage will be caused.
Yes, that's right.
The triggering condition is neither a normal attack nor a skill.
As long as it's harm!
Including damage caused by poisoning!
For example, the rat’s passive skill [Death Venom].
Not only that, because the rat can poison the target with venom whether it is a basic attack or the W skill, so for Lin Dong, he doesn’t even need to deliberately output anyone. He just needs to throw out the W skill first to make all the opponents enter the poisoning effect, and then wait for Xiaoduan’s female tank to enter the field. Whoever the female tank’s skill is used on, the venom damage will automatically trigger the female tank’s passive!
And more importantly... Leona's W skill, after exploding, can apply a passive effect to all targets within the surrounding range!
This combination showed such a powerful effect when clearing the jungle, not to mention the team fight later. It was precisely because of this that Lin Dong made the salary equipment of Spellthief's Blade.
Because he took the AP Rat route in this game.
The mouse's E skill has both AD and AP bonuses.
Normally, AD rats have higher burst damage and faster burst speed than AP rats.
But AD rats have a big problem, which is that they require a lot of economic and equipment support.
But in this game, Lin Dong chose the rat for the purpose of setting the tempo, so there will definitely not be too many junglers, and the economy of the jungler position is definitely not as good as that of the AD position.
In comparison, although the burst of AP Mouse is not high enough, its transition is smooth and its cost-effectiveness is high.
You don't need too many states to deal good damage.
This is also the main reason why auxiliary rats later took the AP route.
When the passive skill damage of the rat is combined with the passive skill of Leona, the two are superimposed, the damage is considerable and can completely catch SKT off guard.
Not to mention the time saved in clearing the jungle!
Especially when Lin Dong saw SKT's movements, he immediately understood and said.
"You think I'm low level, so you want to have a small-scale group battle with us?"
"Or maybe you think my jungle clearing speed is not fast enough, so you want to go to the bottom lane to cross the tower first?"
"I thought SKT might be able to guess my speed?"
Hearing Lin Dong's words, Xiao Duan on the side couldn't help but curled his lips and said.
"I know nothing. How deep are you hiding? Before this round, I didn't even know it was possible to play like this!"
"Although I do know that the rat's poison can trigger the female tank's passive ability."
"But who could have imagined that you would use this method to speed up jungle clearing?"
"My W skill explodes a large area, and your poison can detonate all passives in one breath. Combined with the hunter's amulet, how can it not be fast?"
"Since the opponent wants to fight in a team, let's accept it!"
"But remember not to come out too early. Let the other side in first."
"Brother Saint Spear, have you found a good position? Don't interrupt the opponent's top laner's teleport this time, just come down directly."
"I need you to go around and control this time!"
After being reminded by Xiao Duan, Saint Spear subconsciously glanced at the bottom lane.
Then he found a familiar position, a familiar laning area, and a familiar...the one that looked insignificant, inexplicable, and could even easily be considered as a wrong eye position that Sima Laozei had accidentally placed.
At that moment, he immediately understood!
"Come on, come on! Get started!"
at the same time.
At this time, the SKT players have not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.
Especially when Wolf saw the female tank coming over from the eye position he had placed in advance in the triangle grass, and then standing motionless in the grass, he was suddenly stunned, and then showed an ecstatic expression.
"The opponent's support... doesn't he know there is a ward in the bush?"
"Right! That should be the case! He must have thought that I would come over to set up a ward now, so he wanted to ambush me!"
"This wave is an opportunity!"
"Our mid and jungle are almost here! This female tank's flash is not working! We can kill her!"
"I just don't know where the opposing jungler is."
But as soon as Wolf's words came out, Bengi immediately responded.
"It's okay. The opposing jungler can't be so fast. He should still be killing the stone man. The support should have come here to take position in advance."
"And even if the opponent's jungler comes over, his level is not high at this point in time!"
"We can fight this wave!"
"As long as we can win this wave, we'll have a chance to turn the tables!"
Seeing Bengi say this, Wolf also thought it was an opportunity, so he immediately started to act on the spot, pretending to go up to provide vision.
However, he had no idea at that moment that his action not only failed to allow SKT to successfully turn the tables, but instead ruined SKT's only chance of a comeback!
The moment he approached the bush, as expected by everyone in SKT, Leona rushed up immediately. At the same time, Tristana, who was not far away, also jumped over the wall and started to attack the nurse.
But this time, Faker and Bengi were also very fast.
Bengi immediately cast a shield and used his E skill to hit the ground, slowing down Tristana and Leona. Faker immediately turned around and imprisoned Tristana first, preparing to cooperate with Wolf's silence to kill Tristana first and then deal with Leona.
The next second, the teleports of both top laners and the Tsar lit up at the bottom lane almost at the same time.
What was supposed to be a small rhythm immediately turned into a 5v5 battle in the bottom lane.
However, at the moment when SKT took action, the figure of the rat appeared one step ahead!
The speed was so fast that the SKT players were caught off guard!
And the level... is actually the same as Lee Sin!
Seeing this scene, Bengi was stunned.
"Wait? Why is this rat on the same level as me?"
"Why is his jungle clearing speed so fast?"
However, before he could figure it out, he was already involved in a group fight.
The most important thing for SKT now is naturally to kill Tristana first!
In their subconscious, as long as the ADC Tristana dies, VG's lineup will be invulnerable!
As for the mice?
Rats are not very strong in the early stages!
Because of this, even Bengi did not stop his actions, and forced himself to withstand the damage and directly kill Tristana.
This time, the old thief Sima really has no room for maneuver.
With the death of Xiao Pao, the colonel in the commentary booth sighed with regret.
"Alas! Sima the old thief made a mistake this time! Why did he jump into my face?"
"There's obviously someone behind SKT!"
"VG got fooled this time!"
"Trissie was killed first. VG is now short of damage. Although Leona is very tough and can hold out for a long time, without an ADC, relying only on the damage of Twitch and Tsar, this teamfight will probably be difficult to win!"
But at this moment, Mlxg on the side suddenly spoke up.
"Not necessarily, right?"
"Ok?"
"Have you forgotten how Rat and Leona quickly cleared the jungle just now?" Mlxg glanced at the two and said, "This routine can be used against wild monsters, so it can also be used in team fights!"
As soon as Mlxg finished speaking, the mouse on the screen immediately threw the W skill towards the feet of the SKT players.
Soon, the sound of glass bottles breaking suddenly rang out, and the venom instantly spread under the feet of the SKT people.
At this time, the SKT players have not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.
After all, the damage caused by rat venom does not seem to be very high nowadays.
However, at the moment when Leona's W skill exploded, a number suddenly jumped up on all the people affected by the sunlight!
The number is not very high, just around fifty or so.
But the question is...what if the same number appears on four people at the same time?
In other words, Leona's W skill alone can deal 200 points of damage!
And when Leona's W skill exploded, she used an E skill in return, penetrating three SKT players, and then flew to the last target, followed by another familiar series of numbers!
One hundred and fifty points!
In just two seconds, the opponent dealt 350 points of damage. What does this mean?
This terrifying output speed is hard to achieve for any ADC at this point in time!
Not to mention... the opponent's rat's most critical output skill has not been used yet!
Suddenly, SKT’s voice chat went haywire!
"Wait? Isn't the AOE on the other side a bit too high?"
"I see. Rat's passive triggered Leona's passive! That's why it dealt such a high AOE!"
"Retreat quickly! Even though we killed Tristana in one second, it seems the opponent is not short of damage!"
"It's bad! It seems like we can't win this wave!"
"No, we can't retreat! The tree has teleported behind us, and the Tsar has also come down!"
