Chapter 31: Did the anti-squat work?
At the same time, everyone in the VG lounge was as shocked as the audience.

Looking at the screen, in just a few minutes, on the seemingly calm battlefield, the junglers of both sides had actually fought each other several times in succession. The rookie Lin Dong, even facing the experienced factory manager, still did not fall into a disadvantage, and even handled it with ease. The coaching staff was completely furious and started discussing it at once.

"You can actually do this? Honestly, this Poppy's ultimate is way too counter-intuitive, right? You can actually use it this way?"

"To be honest, I think Poppy's ultimate is really interesting. It looks like a defensive skill, but if you use it in the opponent's jungle, it will become an offensive skill."

"To be honest, the operation is actually secondary. LPL has no shortage of new players with good operation skills, and many new players are also like this. The problem is that Lin Dong's rhythm... Not only can he be comparable to that of the factory manager, but sometimes he can even suppress the factory manager..."

"But we can still see some subtle differences. Compared to the factory manager, Lin Dong's playing style is also about operations, but his playing style is more aggressive."

Listening to the discussions of people around her, Li Yue, who was not far away, was in a good mood, with a smug look on her face!
Although she didn't understand what everyone was talking about, she didn't understand the details at all.

But it is obvious that VG seems to have the advantage now!

Not only that, Lin Dong also played a role!

"Hehehe! This brat! Still want to give up? What a joke!"

"You really think I'm a victim!"

"I don't blame you for not training! But when you enter the competition, you must kill me hard!"

"Want to give up? Impossible!"

Not far away, Hongmi and Gao Jun were watching this scene on the screen and their brains froze.

After a long while, Gao Jun finally reacted and smacked his lips.

"Wait a minute... Why do I feel like Lin Dong has suppressed Zzaizhang in these few waves of rhythm? Especially the few lane changes and counter-campings he directed, which directly disrupted EDG's rhythm. This way, the opponent will be in trouble next time."

Hongmi on the side was silent for a while, then nodded and said.

"Yeah, I didn't expect Lin Dong to have this skill. He usually doesn't show off his talents, but at the critical moment, he actually stood out. It seems that letting him go up to compete with the opponent in operations when playing against EDG is indeed the right choice."

After hearing this, Gao Jun was stunned for a moment.

"So you don't trust him that much? But in normal training matches, he can fight the factory manager to a draw."

"Don't I trust him? I don't trust the training matches!" Hongmi sneered, "Do you really think they will play the training matches seriously? It's not like you haven't seen people being killed with one shot in the training matches, but being killed like dogs in the real matches."

"..."Gao Jun.

At this time, in the game.

Although he successfully killed Minotaur by using the characteristics of Poppy's new ultimate, Lin Dong also knew that he would surely die in this position.

So after killing the Minotaur, just send the tower directly and give the kill to Meiko to maximize the benefits.

The factory manager on the other side felt like his whole body was about to break apart after seeing that he had come up empty-handed once again.

Deft was killed first, and Meiko was replaced by the jungler. By the time Zz1tai and Pawn arrived, whose ultimates had not yet been refreshed, all the VG players except Poppy had already retreated to the tower. Not only that, the Troll's teleport was used, and the opponent's Lulu did not come to support.

Rather than saying that VG successfully attacked two with four, it would be better to say that VG attacked five with four, and then achieved a perfect rhythm of one for two!
And what's even more terrible is...

Watching the opponent's Poppy going to destroy the tower, the factory manager could only try to use the Q skill to deal damage and get the kill.

As luck would have it, his Q skill was just one flash away from Poppy!

If he had arrived five seconds earlier, he wouldn't have suffered such a huge loss!
But sometimes, a five-second difference is enough to change the situation of a battle.

But the problem was that the factory director's eyelids began to twitch wildly as he felt the rhythm gradually slipping away from his control.

Obviously, calculating time, controlling vision, and controlling the rhythm of the entire map are what he is best at.

Why can the jungler on the opposite side do this?

He hesitated for a moment, then spoke in the voicemail.

"How about... for the second ultimate, I won't take the initiative to fly? I'll just counter-camp first?"

"I think the most urgent task is to stabilize the situation and stop following the opponent's rhythm."

Hearing the factory manager's words, the other EDG members nodded and agreed. Little did they know that Lin Dong had also keenly noticed the factory manager's little move.

"As expected, once they are in a disadvantageous position, they will choose to stabilize the situation first, rather than trying to find a way to open it up again..."

"The issue is……"

"To put it nicely, this is called stabilizing the situation. To put it bluntly, isn't this just cowardice?"

"No wonder EDG is easily overturned no matter how big an advantage they have."

"As long as we are not afraid of you in the later team battles, then aren't you just giving us the opportunity to develop for nothing?"

"Drag? Just drag it by force?"

"Do you really think that we will be afraid of you if we delay until the end?"

Shaking his head, Lin Dong did not choose to continue attacking.

Because if the opponent is really determined to counter-gank, with the double ultimates of Nightmare and Card, if you want to continue to actively gank or cross the tower, you will be courting death.

But Lin Dong’s goal had already been achieved.

Looking at Sima Laozei who already had two kills at the start, Lin Dong made a decisive decision.

Lin Dong's voice suddenly sounded in the voice chat.

"Brother Ma, don't push the line after pushing it, be careful of being caught by the opponent."

"You don't have to hang up under the tower after you retreat. If there are wild monsters in the jungle, you can eat them directly to ensure your development priority."

"I'm just a tool in this round. I have a green Slag Giant jungle knife. My equipment is almost enough. The rest of the economy is yours."

"My Lord... forget it. I guess he won't understand what I say."

The moment they heard Lin Dong's words, everyone in VG was stunned!

The jungler actively asked the AD to clear the wild monsters in his own jungle.

The problem is that the opposing mid and jungle now have big moves, and it is impossible for Lin Dong to counter-jungle.

In other words, Lin Dong is sacrificing his own development in exchange for Sima Laozei's development space!
In everyone's impression, generally speaking, only the support gives economic support to the AD!

But this is the first time I’ve heard of a jungler giving up economy to an AD!
The key is……

This kid is not only thinking about giving up the economy himself, he is even thinking about making Hou Ye, the world champion mid laner, give up the economy as well?

Crazy!
And Saint Spear Brother couldn't help but speak.

"Wait a minute... I don't think this is necessary? He already has an advantage now, so normal development is enough, right?"

"After all, if we give him all the gold, our lineup for this game..."

"And the opponent is EDG."

Although Saint Spear didn't say it explicitly, his subtext was that he didn't quite believe that in the late game, Sima Laozei would be able to play the role he should in the team battle with EDG on his own.

After all, Saint Spear Brother remembers Sima Laozei's performance in S5 very clearly.

Although Sima Laozei performed well in the first few games after coming to VG.

But in everyone's impression, it is just okay.

And now you suddenly let Sima Laozei become the core in the late game?
In the face of Saint Spear Brother's questioning, Lin Dong did not explain much, but just smiled and said.

"Just trust me."

"If we lose, I'll take the blame."
