Chapter 90: Counter-jungle? I'm not even in the jungle

Chapter 90: Counter-jungle? I'm not even in the jungle
Looking at the lineup in front of him, the factory manager's expression suddenly became strange.

"Why is the opponent's lineup so weird?"

"Choosing Skateboards in the bottom lane is definitely an advantage in laning, and the top lane is also an advantage in laning, but in the end, the mid and jungle are at a disadvantage..."

"Normally speaking, shouldn't the mid and jungle have an advantage in the early game, giving the ADC more time to develop?"

"How come it's the other way around here?"

"Although the damage is high in the late game, what about their mid-jungle rhythm in the early and mid-game?"

"If it were any other jungler, I might not be able to enter the opponent's jungle to counter-jungle, after all, they have the advantage in both the top and bottom lanes, but the hero Nidalee is not afraid of this... At worst, I can just run away, and even if the opponent comes to gank me, it's just a waste of my time..."

"Especially in the opposite top lane, the Time Man is quite disgusting in the laning phase, and he can provide support in advance if he has the lane authority, but the question is, is it useful? This hero does not have a stable first-hand control."

In the voice message, Kourou also nodded, expressing the same feeling.

"He can suppress me at this time, but he can't kill me alone. His damage is not enough."

"The problem is... with his small body, if you come to gank me, I can just flash and kill him, right?"

"Their lineup is pretty disgusting in teamfights, but can they drag the fight out?"

At that moment, everyone in EDG had their ideas finalized.

Especially the factory manager, he planned his own jungle route at the first opportunity.

"After defeating Kindred at level 2, I can go counter-jungle. In this round, I might as well start with the red buff. After defeating the red buff, I will go directly into the opponent's jungle. If I want to invade, I have to do it early. Anyway, no matter what, I have to disgust the opponent's Kindred."

"With such a weak lineup in the early stage, how can it drag on to the late stage?"

As soon as he finished speaking, as the game started, all the EDG players formed a long snake formation in the river and blocked the entrance.

At this time, Wawa and Miller in the commentary booth also began to analyze the lineups of both sides.

The two people's views are exactly the same as the factory director.

"VG felt a bit too weak in the early game. Whether it was the mid-jungle fight or the top-jungle fight, they were at a slight disadvantage... The lane control was useless. Without the first control or burst, it was too difficult to deal with Nidalee in the first place."

"Although the top laner can indeed provide early support, what if EDG chooses to kill the helper first? The self-protection ability of the Time Man before level 6 is very average. The key is the meat. This game chose the big tree as the top laner. Not only can he withstand pressure, but he also has a first-hand stable control. As long as W is used, Nidalee will use the Q skill, won't it be impossible to fight?"

"Yeah, I feel like VG's tactics in this game are a bit too idealistic..."

However, at this moment, looking at the lineups of both sides on the screen, Wawa was suddenly stunned and then asked in confusion.

"Eh... something seems to be wrong here at VG?"

"What's wrong?"

"Kourou is standing at the triangle grass in the top lane, while Zz1tai's Nidalee is standing at the four birds... EDG's position is also a classic jungle entrance position at the start of the game."

"But as for Kindred...why did he run to the Baron pit?"

"Also... How come Saint Spear doesn't have any equipment? Did he forget to buy it?"

Just when the doll was looking confused, the next second, the doll next to it suddenly screamed!
"No! How did Kindred jump up from the Baron pit?"

"Could it be that Dong is planning to attack EDG's upper half? And he's alone? That's impossible!"

"EDG didn't seem to notice him! They were all standing at the jungle entrance, and they didn't expect Kindred to use his Q skill to jump out of the Baron pit!"

"But the problem is, even if we catch the boss off guard at level 1, or even snatch the wild monster away, it's useless!"

"At this point in time, Maokai isn't even online yet. If he comes over to flank us, Kindred will most likely lose the first blood!"

At the same time, as expected, the people in the audience went wild when they saw this scene.

"A person goes to counter Nidalee's jungle at level 1? Am I seeing that correctly?"

"Oh no, has Winter God really gotten too proud of himself? Does he no longer regard the factory director as a human being?"

"This is crazy. Kindred is facing Nidalee. It's good enough that he can develop steadily in the early stage. He even goes to the enemy's jungle to counter-jungle? Isn't this courting death?"

"Yeah! Even if I get the buff, what can I do? It's hard to escape from this position!"

This time, even Hongmi was stunned.

In fact, in the previous few games, although Lin Dong always made some outrageous moves, the damage and control were at least sufficient.

Although it's a gamble, at least there is a chance of success.

But this time...running to the opposite jungle to counter-jungle at level 1?

To be honest, apart from Olaf and Werewolf, who are low-health gods of war and can use their level advantage to fight two at this point in time, Hongmi really can't think of any other heroes.

The problem is, Lin Dong was playing Kindred in this game!

For a moment, Hongmi couldn't help but frown.

"No... What is Lin Dong doing?"

Sofm on the side couldn't help but shook his head and said.

"Even if I succeed in grabbing the buff, I will lose my first blood, which is not worth it."

Just as everyone was talking, a voice suddenly came from the corner of the lounge.

"It's okay, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Everyone was subconsciously stunned, then looked over.

As a result, the next second, everyone fell silent.

Because the person who spoke was none other than Li Yue.

Suddenly, everyone's expressions became strange.

After all, everyone knows VG, and their boss knows nothing about League of Legends.

After hearing this, Gao Jun asked subconsciously.

"Um...Boss, do you understand?"

"Oh, I don't understand." Li Yue said lightly, "But I believe him."

Gao Jun was very upset at this time.

I thought to myself, I don’t understand what you are saying!

Moreover!
No matter how powerful Lin Dong is, he still has to abide by the basic laws!

Kindred is powerful in the late game, but weak in the early game!

Seeing everyone's faces full of disbelief, Li Yue shrugged and said helplessly.

"What are you thinking about? Is Lin Dong that stupid?"

"Don't you think about it? He has always been the one who disgusts others. When has he ever done a business that made a loss?"

This time, Li Yue was right.

Lin Dong is indeed not that stupid.

He had no intention of counter-attack from the beginning.

After quietly sneaking into EDG's upper jungle area, Lin Dong did not stay, but went straight to the bush opposite the red buff, and then immediately returned to the city.

However, at the last second before returning to the city, he placed a vision at the red buff.

Because the vision would not be interrupted on the way back to the city, Lin Dong bought a few more seconds of survival time for this eye position.

Seeing Lin Dong taking off his pants and farting, everyone in the VG chat room was a little confused.

Saint Spear Brother asked subconsciously.

"Lin Dong...you risked being caught by the opponent and went into the jungle just to set up vision?"

"Yes." Lin Dong looked righteous.

"No, the opponent's Nidalee is most likely to start in the upper jungle. Is there any need to think about this?" Xiao Duan at the side couldn't help but say, "I feel that he will go to the upper jungle to counter your wild monsters. Otherwise, you can just start in the upper jungle and then clear it down. We have the advantage in the bottom lane."

"Look, isn't the problem here now?" Lin Dong said with a smile, "What if they start the game by taking the red buff, and then come to counter my jungle at level 2?"

With just a slight reminder, Xiao Duan immediately understood.

"Oh, wait... Yeah, it'll be troublesome if she comes to counter-jungle at level 2. The key is that there are too many routes for Nidalee to enter the jungle, and you can't stop her even if you look at the entrance of your own jungle..."

However, although he understood it, Xiao Duan was still not very optimistic about the situation in this game.

"The problem is... even if you know Nidalee's movements, what can you do? If you can't win in the jungle, you will definitely lose. You can only stop the loss in time."

"Loss? When have I ever done a business that made a loss?" Lin Dong scolded with a smile, "Hurry up, switch lanes with the top laner."

"Oh, that's a good idea." Xiao Duan nodded and immediately called Sima Laozei to prepare to return to the city.

However, at this moment, Lin Dong spoke again.

"I was talking about you, not Sima the thief. He is still fighting in the bottom lane."

"Ah?" Xiao Duan was confused.

Lin Dong did not give any further explanation, but continued to shout in the voice message.

"By the way, Brother Saint Spear, you are just like what I said before. You haven't bought the starting equipment yet, right?"

"Did not buy."

"Go back to the city, buy the Spellthief's Blade, and go to the bottom lane to play support for a while. I'll call you up when the time is right."

"Row."

"Xiao Duan, go to the road and squat there first, and wait for me to arrive."

"???"

After all these operations, Xiaoduan was completely confused.

It’s time to go solo!
What happened to him ending up in the supporting position?

In fact, there was a reason why Lin Dong made such arrangements.

In this game, we were completely at a disadvantage in the early jungle battle!
Let Saint Spear's time come up to fight against the meaty Tree from the very beginning?
It is indeed possible to suppress the opponent in laning phase, but not much.

The key is that there is no stable control. Once Nidalee enters the jungle area, Lin Dong and Saint Spear Brother have no way to deal with her!
But if it's Gragas in the upper half... then the situation is different. Gragas's E skill is a very good control skill for starting a team fight. Once Nidalee is caught, there is not much room for operation.

However, the rhythm of this game is not as simple as simply changing lanes.

Because if Gragas switches to the top lane and Timeless Solomon is the assist in the bottom lane, then the bottom lane will become a squishy duo, and the opponent's jungler Nidalee will definitely change tactics and choose to cooperate with Alistar's WQ combo to gank the bottom lane.

In this way, the jungle area is saved, but the bottom lane is in danger.

So Lin Dong thought of a way...

That is to let Xiaoduan's Gragas single-handedly defend the opponent's Nidalee!

The factory manager is in the upper jungle area, and Xiaoduan is in the top lane to protect himself!
When Zzitai went to the lower jungle area, Xiaoduan went to the bottom lane to protect the AD!

Of course, changing lines like this will definitely be difficult.

The biggest problem is...

As a support Gragas, after buying support equipment at the beginning of the game, how do you deal with the soldiers in the top lane?

Lin Dong's approach to dealing with these two problems was simple and crude.

In the top lane, Xiaoduan’s Gragas definitely can’t handle it alone.

Then go eat it yourself!

Anyway, I chose Kindred in this game. I can carry the game by myself in the later stage, so it doesn’t matter if I take some economic benefits. It just so happens that there is almost no penalty for last-hitting in the jungle in the S6 version.

It just so happened that Xiao Duan had a holy shield as his going-out outfit, so as long as Lin Dong was nearby, he could quickly kill the minions and push the line of troops.

As long as I can get the upper lane, I can put the tree under the tower, and then let the barrel go to the jungle with me to find Nidalee...

No matter how good Leopard Woman is at pulling, can she fight two people at once?

However, before Xiao Duan could figure it all out, he saw that Holy Spear had already been substituted, and on the other side, Nidalee and Maokai were also ready to open the red buff.

With no other options, Xiao Duan had no choice but to follow Lin Dong's arrangements.

At the same time, watching this strange scene.

Wawa and Miller in the commentary booth were completely stunned!
"Kindred isn't really going to counter-jungle, is he? No, he placed a ward and returned to the city... It looks like he's not going to counter-jungle."

"Brother Saint Spear probably realized that he didn't buy any equipment, so he went back to the city to buy more equipment..."

"Wait! Why is it the Spellthief's Blade?"

"No! Why did Saint Spear go to the bottom lane?"

"Is he... going to play support? But where is VG's support? Xiao Duan..."

"Gragnard isn't a laning outfit! I bought the Relic Shield..."

"Is this VG's lineup... a double support lineup?"

At the same time, the EDG members had not noticed anything wrong.

With the help of Braised Pork, Zz1tai's Leopard Woman successfully killed the red buff and reached level two.

However, in order to counter the jungle, he did not use the punishment directly at level 1.

Not only that, he also deliberately chose to jump down from the dragon pit, and then walked straight towards VG's upper jungle area.

Looking at the VG jungle area at this time, the factory manager made a rough calculation in his mind.

"If Kindred chooses to start with blue, he will either be caught by me in the jungle, or he will give up Toad and three wolves and go directly to the bottom jungle."

"If Kindred chooses to start with red buff, he will be even less likely to come over. It's like he's exchanging jungle with me. When I reach level 3, I'll gank him directly and let Maokai use W to bind time... The chances of a successful gank are very high."

"Of course, it would be best if the opposing jungler would make a fool of himself and be caught by me, because in this way, my profit would be the highest."

"Anyway, no matter what you choose, the opponent's Kindred will definitely lose."

Thinking of this, the factory director's mood suddenly improved.

At first I was almost scared when I saw the opponent's lineup.

But on second thought, I found too many weaknesses!
Especially this single time!

Isn't this asking for arrest?

Shaking his head, he looked directly at the blue buff.

The blue buff at this time has been killed.

The factory manager raised his eyebrows.

"This Kindred starts with the blue buff?"

"It depends on whether he chooses to be resisted by me or to give in voluntarily..."

"Just as I'm at level 3 after clearing these two groups of junglers, I'll go catch them directly..."

Just as the factory manager was rehearsing the next steps in his mind, something strange happened.

All I could hear in EDG's voice chat was exclamations coming from the top and bottom lanes almost at the same time.

"Eh? Why hasn't Old Man Shiguang come online yet? He can't be hiding in the bushes waiting for me, right? The problem is that I'm playing a big tree! Not some squishy little creature!"

"No! Wait a minute? Why is it in our bottom lane at this time?"

"Fuck! Is Shi Guang a support? That's not right! This is the opponent's top laner! What the hell is going on with this opponent!"

"Oh no! What the hell are these Barrel and Kindred? Why are they here with me?!"

The factory manager looked in the direction of the sound and was also confused by the outrageous change of route on the opposite side.

However, he hadn't figured it out yet.

On the road, two figures rushed out again!
After removing the blue buff, Kindred reaches level 2, and Gragas gets the auxiliary equipment!
The moment he saw these two people appear, Kourou was stunned!
As a tank, the one he fears most in the top lane is not mages like Lulu, Ice Maiden, and Kennen, but the ADC!

Because the mage's skills can at least be dodged, and if that doesn't work, you can also withstand the pressure.

At worst, you can just use one more skill and exchange your health for a line of troops!
But AD is different.

How to dodge a basic attack?
The most powerful thing about ADC is its ability to chase people!
If you are not careful, you will be chased!
As long as the jungler doesn't come, you will never be able to turn things around if you rely on yourself alone!

And this wave...

The barrel on the opposite side is even more insidious and cunning!

At level 1, he just hid in the bushes until Kindred came out, and then Gragas suddenly used his E skill to rush over!

The next second, a sign of dizziness appeared on his forehead.

At the same time, Kindred also rushed up, using the E skill to slow down the opponent.

Seeing that he was hit by Gragas, Kou Rou could only quickly learn the Q skill, slap Kindred away, and quickly distance himself from the two.

Seeing that Maokai learned Q and retreated at level 1, Lin Dong stopped there and immediately turned around to cooperate with Xiao Duan and sent the soldiers in the top lane directly into the defensive tower.

Then...the two of them immediately disappeared from the top lane area.

Watch this scene.

In VG's upper jungle area, the factory manager who just walked in to look for someone... was immediately embarrassed!
In this jungle area now, should we counter or not?
Continue to clear the jungle. What if Qianjue and Gragas come back to find me?
If Gragas learns E at level 1 and uses E to dodge himself directly, and then cooperates with Kindred, there is a high probability that he will be killed!

Gragas is not a useless hero like Old Man Time who has unstable control!

Not only that, even the Tsar on the opposite side seemed to be ready to rush over to surround him!
Although the Tsar’s burst is not high in the early stage, there are three of them in total!
You can't let yourself fight three people alone, right?
But if you don't brush the wild...

So, wasn't I just shopping for the past ten seconds?
For a rhythm-type jungler like Nidalee, strolling around the street is even more painful than dying!

After a moment's hesitation, the determination to maintain KDA finally overwhelmed rationality.

After a moment, the factory manager gritted his teeth, controlled the Leopard Woman in his hand, used the W skill to jump over the wall, and retreated.

At this time, Lin Dong, who had just returned to the wild area, looked at the three wolves and toad that were intact, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Haha, you still want to counter me at level 2?"

"Laughing to death!"

"I'm not even in the jungle at level 2!"

At the same time, VG's bottom lane.

Saint Spear Brother is also studying the feasibility of this style of play.

Although he is a tool in this game, he can't really be played as a support!

Because if the 'Spellthief' is not upgraded to the 'Frost Queen's Command', there will be a penalty for finishing off the enemy.

So even though he was in the support position, he still had to gain economic benefits in this game and upgrade the Spellthief's Blade as early as possible.

"A hit costs 10 yuan. It can only be triggered 30 times within 3 seconds. Once you make a last hit, this passive will be ineffective for 12 seconds..."

"But this is invalid. I just don't get paid for hitting people! The passive accumulated reading bar is still continuing!"

"That is to say, as long as I finish 3 layers of A and immediately go back to last hit, when the passive is almost full, when I want to make money, can't I just stop last hitting 12 seconds in advance?"

"You really can't play like this in a single lane, because you have to last hit at any time..."

"But the double line is not necessarily the same!"

"Old thief, I'm going to go up and get 30 bucks first, then I'll come back to get some more damage. This is a good time for you to rush up and kill the other guy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, taking advantage of his long arms, he successfully stole 30 gold from the opposite Minotaur. Then, Saint Spear did not hesitate and threw a bomb directly on Skateboard Shoes' forehead, then turned back to finish off the enemy.

When Sima Laozei saw this, he used his passive skill to jump onto the faces of Kog'Maw and Minotaur!
next second!
Bang!
The bomb exploded.

Suddenly...

Deft and Meiko both looked upset.

No, buddy?
At least you threw the bomb at us and gave us a chance to move and dodge!

You just put the bomb on Skateboarder's head, and then let him use his passive to jump up and blow us up?

How can we hide from this?
 A 5,000-word chapter. I'm not in a good mood today, so I'm going to take a rest first. It should be finished by evening.
