Mille noticed something was wrong as soon as God's view loaded the screen.
Even though the commentator was far away from the screen, he could still see that the main runes under Rambo and Troll's avatars were different from what he expected!
He wanted to take a closer look, but the director had already taken over the data panel at the bottom of the screen and showed the specific runes used by the ten players.
"Two predators?" His face was full of suspicion. "What is YM Nakano doing?!"
He exchanged a glance with Mille and had some guesses in his heart.
Doll next to him was a qualified sidekick. Of course, he hadn't paid much attention to the game in recent years, so when he saw the predators, he immediately screamed.
"RNG used Off the Lights and Let the Sheep in the last round. YM is going to use a big move in this round too!"
In the front row, Liu Qingsong's mother didn't really understand the game. She nervously asked Su Cheng next to her when she heard the commentator's words.
"What big move … Can they win this round?"
Originally, after the second round, she thought that her son would easily win another championship trophy as usual. She even thought of a congratulatory speech.
However, she didn't expect YM to lose the last round. Liu Qingsong's mother couldn't help but worry.
Although she had heard Su Cheng and the girl next to her say that YM had less than a 5% chance of losing the final with a 2-0 lead, with her son competing on the stage, this 5% chance was not small to her.
"Don't worry," Su Cheng comforted her with a smile. "They won't lose."
Su Cheng looked calm on the outside, but she was also panicking on the inside.
After leaving her role as an analyst, she didn't know how YM was preparing for the final. She could only choose to trust the team members and the coaching staff.
Her eyes flashed as she glanced at the player seats not far away. Her eyes couldn't help but stop on Lin Yan.
They definitely won't lose …
RNG, who knew from the loading screen that YM Nakano's runes were strange, was still discussing how to deal with it.
It couldn't be helped. The coach had left the contestants' seats after the BP session. At that time, the loading screen of the Summoner's Canyon had not appeared yet. Heart had no idea that Lin Yan and Xiaosu would tamper with the runes.
"They'll definitely go for the bottom lane in this round." The Spicy Saucepan was infected by the weather in Chengdu and the atmosphere in the arena. It felt hot all over and couldn't help but raise its voice. "Shi Senming, you and Puppy be careful!"
"I know, I know," Ouze pursed his lips and agreed. "Protect us more. As long as we push down the next tower, I can carry it."
"Shi Senming, remember to dig deeper." The salesman chattered in a hoarse voice. "Junze and I both have teleportation. If they dare to go down, we'll immediately rush to the battlefield and circle around."
Shi Senming nodded in agreement with a serious expression. He was no longer laughing. The spring finals were so serious. Everyone was actively preparing for battle. Everyone was preparing for a bloody battle. Should he laugh?
He would only be able to laugh if he was being coerced.
"Both sides' Level 1 positions are quite conservative. It seems like neither side wants to scout the other's jungle …" Mille said as he looked at the movements of the ten players on the minimap.
The main reason was that there was no need to scout.
The top laner Jin Gong used Vampire to fight Aun. Normal players wouldn't even look at this lane before level 6.
It wasn't that they couldn't catch it. It was just that the success rate of gank was too low. It wasn't cost-effective to risk exposing their own movements.
Comparatively speaking, the bottom lane was everyone's main battlefield.
Therefore, the junglers of both sides would definitely start from the top lane and clear the bottom lane to protect the bottom lane.
Lin Yan walked around the river twice and found that the other side didn't invade the jungle. He then controlled the Galaxy Magic Armor God to return to the middle lane.
The first reaction of both sides was to look at their runes and equipment.
Mi Dehu's Cheyenne went out with Corruption Potion as usual. His main class was Arcane Comet, and his secondary class was Enlightenment's Soldier Vessel and Time Distortion Potion.
However, when the Cancellation saw Lin Yan's equipment, he was in a bad mood.
In Rambo's equipment slot were Straw Sandals + Four Red, six Soldier Vessel, and the stopwatch provided by Perfect Timing.
This is crazy. What are you trying to do?
"Brother Ran's equipment is Potion Bro!"
Doll was good at making jokes. "There was an old version where health potions were converted into biscuits. Card masters often go out like this …"
The bullet screen was already spamming "Gather your treasures". There were also viewers who followed the trend and spammed "Are you worthy?". There was a craze in the live streaming channel.
"Be careful. He might go to the bottom lane early on!" Mi Dehu quickly reminded his teammates.
He originally thought that Lin Yan's Predator would wait until the first time to buy a pair of shoes before using it. He didn't expect his opponent to go out and buy a pair of shoes right away!
In one minute and twenty-seven seconds, the minions connected. Lin Yan went up and started his Pyromaniac Feast.
Normally, when Rambo went solo, he would learn Level 1 E Electronic Harpoon and hide behind the minions to eat.
However, the situation was obviously different in this game.
Mid Laner Cheyenne was a close-range fighter. His Level 1 combat ability was not strong. With only Level E Killer Roar, he could not suppress Rambo much.
Lin Yan relied on the four bottles of health potions he had on him. He was not afraid of Cheyenne's consumption at all.
Xiao Hu used Killer Roar to push back the minions and hit Lin Yan at the same time. At the same time, he used Arcane Comet.
However, he was also burned by the edge of Rambo's flamethrower. His HP also decreased by a small bar.
At the same time, Lin Yan's Bleeding Gums talent recovered some HP for him. The results of the first round of exchanges were similar. Lin Yan was at a slight disadvantage.
After burning the flame, he continued to raise the drill and poke the close-range soldiers.
When Cancel saw Lin Yan's outfit, he knew that he would definitely roam around to support in the early game. At this time, he was not surprised by Rambo's push.
The two mid laners also raised their axes and hacked at the minions. The early game was quite harmonious.
Both of them started solo from the top half of the map. The two junglers started to race. Although Nanqiang's solo farming was not as fast as Panther Lady and Olaf, his efficiency was still better than Troll's.
More importantly, farming did not hurt at all. Continuing the passive, Greyfoss was not afraid of the AD jungler in solo battles.
After the Saucepan finished farming the red buff, he took a detour to the top half of the map to find the Stone Beetle. Although this route wasted more time than clearing the top half of the map, with Nanqiang's Scattershot and AoE damage, Phyllostachys Pubescens had just finished farming the Demonic Swamp Frog when he finished farming the Stone Beetle.
"Nanqiang left a small Stone Beetle. I'll pull it outside the camp and kill it with one shot. Continuing the passive, I'll rush to the Beak Birds' camp …"
Spicy Saucepan stuck at the node where the passive was about to disappear and used Slide Step again. This way, the Pure Man's stack would not drop when he reached the Beak Birds' camp.
At this time, he already had six stacks of Pure Man's passive. After defeating F6, he would be able to stack eight stacks.
Level 1 E [Quick Draw] provided 6 points of Armor per stack. Eight stacks meant 48 points of Armor. Including his own base values, his Armor would easily exceed 80 points.
What did 80 points of Armor mean in the early game?
With the red buff, Nanqiang was not afraid of any physical damage output jungler hero!
Spicy Saucepan had already calculated its jungle route in its mind. It planned to invade in the early game and let Troll have a taste of its bullets.
The junglers of both sides were clearing the third group of junglers. The first wave of Artillery Soldiers in the middle lane had also arrived.
Lin Yan used the Soldier Death Device to eliminate the Artillery Soldiers. Nullify did the same and also handed over the Soldier Death Device.
Both sides killed a melee soldier almost at the same time and reached Level 3.
Previously, Lin Yan had used two other skills to control the temperature around 40 degrees. Now, he used the Electronic Harpoon to stab a melee soldier and pushed the temperature to 50 degrees.
"Cheyenne is charging up for [Brutal Bash]. He still wants to trade health with Rambo!"
Lin Yan was not afraid at all. At this time, it was very difficult to dodge Cheyenne's Brutal Bash. He decisively chose to deal damage to each other.
He used two skills at the same time. The dangerous temperature increased the effect of each skill by 50%. The flames kept burning Cheyenne!
The charged Brutal Bash smashed Rambo into the air. While shattering his shield, it also reduced Lin Yan's health by a lot.
Although Rambo was in the air, his ejector was not interrupted. The flames also burned the shield given by Cheyenne's Soul Furnace to nothing.
Nullify followed up with [Killer Roar]. Although Lin Yan had not landed and could normally follow up with a normal attack, he did not dare to be greedy and quickly retreated.
If he was greedy for this normal attack, he would be at a huge disadvantage.
Rambo now had 90 points of energy. He only needed to use one more Harpoon to reach red temperature.
At that time, Lin Yan, who had bought straw sandals, could easily catch up with him and use the electric drill.
Cheyenne, who had used up all his skills, did not have the ability to fight Rambo.
It was better to retreat now.
After using up all their skills, Lin Yan was at a slight disadvantage.
However, it did not affect him much.
He controlled the temperature and controlled Rambo to press forward, forcing Cheyenne out of the range of the minions.
Nullify clicked his tongue. He was unhappy, but he could only retreat.
Cheyenne's three skills all had cooldowns of more than 10 seconds. Lin Yan was obviously using the time difference to gain an advantage.
Rambo, who had reached level 3, had entered a strong phase. In most cases, Warriors with stats could not beat Rambo. Nullify could only avoid it.
Lin Yan stood in the midst of the minions and kept poking them with his drill. When the temperature dropped slightly, he would use [Broken Shield] to push it up again. He kept himself in a state where he could reach red temperature at any time.
Nullify could not go forward. Once Lin Yan reached red temperature, he would not be afraid of changing his health even if he forcefully took Q's [Brutal Bash].
Lin Yan started his Arson Feast again. He swung his head back and forth to clear the wave of minions. Then, he immediately ran down.
"Be careful in the bottom lane." Nullify signaled his own duo while calling for the jungler. "Saucepan, push the line in the middle lane. I'll invade the opposite jungle with you!"
When Spicy Saucepan heard the words "push the line", he almost lost his grip on his shotgun.
"Li Yuanhao, you're really my good brother!"
He was very touched. He finished off the last Sharp-Beaked Bird with his normal attack and slid out of the jungle camp to the middle lane.
The shotgun hit the minions and refreshed his Pure Man passive. He then ran towards the YM Sharp-Beaked Bird camp.
"Rambo has activated Predator!"
As soon as Doll finished speaking, the wolf head sound effect appeared. Rambo received a 45% movement speed boost and ran down the bottom lane!
"The Puppy that was holding the line is already retreating …"
As they retreated in a hurry, Policewoman and Morgana were close to each other. Liu Qingsong took the opportunity to attack!
With a flash of golden light, Bull's Head Chieftain Alaster appeared in front of them. He pointed his horn forward and tried to send the RNG duo into the air with a double WQ combo!
The combo was extremely fast and didn't give the opponents any time to react. Even the audience could only let out a scream!
Ouze smirked. He had purposely shown an opening, waiting for Bull's Head to use his double WQ combo!
Just as the bull horn was about to hit the policewoman, a black shield suddenly appeared around Caitlin's body!
Another flash of golden light. Morgana moved back 400 yards, avoiding Bull's Head's fatal crowd-control!
"Ghost, that's Xiao Ming's reaction!"
Remember to take a deep breath. "First, put a shield on the ADC, then use a flash to escape. That's a textbook reaction!"
Morgana's Level 1 Black Shield was enough to block Bull's Head's double WQ combo. Ouze wasn't held back by the crowd-control and calmly retreated with his sniper rifle.
Shi Senming, who had used [Dark Imprisonment] to create distance, used [Dark Imprisonment] to lock the Ox Chieftain in place.
Lin Yan crawled out of the bushes connecting the bottom lane and the river, but the RNG duo had already retreated safely.
His teammates couldn't keep up with him, and Lin Yan couldn't continue chasing.
The RNG fans in the stands were extremely excited. They were all praising Ouze and Shi Senming's reaction speed!
[What a quick flash!]
[YM is going to suffer a huge loss. Mid single straw shoes went out just for this gank. He's going to be pissed if he didn't catch it.]
[If it was the original Ouze, wouldn't this Level 2 be dead for sure?
Black Chicken Pot is ripe.]
[Is this also Ouze's credit?
If it weren't for Xiao Ming's quick reaction, Ouze would've died long ago.]
The Spicy Saucepan passed through the middle lane. Before it left, it didn't forget to use its shotgun to refresh its Pure Manhood passive and eat a minion.
This was obviously an anti-jungler invasion. In order to protect Xiaosu's jungle, Lin Yan could only turn around and use W's Shattered Shield to rush back to his own Beak Birds' camp.
The current version of Predator provided 15 seconds of acceleration. As long as it didn't cause damage to the enemy, it would continue.
With the movement speed of Straw Shoes, Lin Yan ran back and forth in the river.
"Brother Ran rushed to the Beak Birds' camp very quickly, but Mongoose still dropped three birds!"
Fortunately, the two junglers had already used their first Punishment and hadn't recovered yet. The Saucepan also couldn't kill the Beak Birds quickly. When he saw Lin Yan rush over, he left YM's jungle with Cancel.
Lin Yan used an Electronic Harpoon as a threat, but the Spicy Saucepan didn't dodge and took the attack head-on.
He definitely wouldn't be able to dodge it with his positioning alone. If he wanted to dodge the harpoon, he would have to use E's Quick Draw.
However, if he used Slide, the Pure Manhood effect would disappear when he entered the river, and he wouldn't be able to use the River Crab to continue his passive.
Without the passive, Troll might retaliate and invade later. It would be difficult to deal with then.
"Rambo still wanted to go forward after hitting the harpoon, but Cheyenne used Q's Brutal Slam to force him back!"
Mille saw that both sides had dispersed and commented, "This wave of RNG made a small profit. The support Flash swapped, but Liu Qingsong's HP was lowered. At the same time, the Saucepan also killed three minion Beak Birds."
"That's right." Doll nodded in agreement. "YM must have used two Predator Runes to gain an advantage in the laning phase. If it was a smooth transition, they might as well have used normal Runes."
Lin Yan returned to the middle lane and continued to line up. Cancel knew that Lin Yan didn't have any Predators, and there were no Artillerymen to create an opportunity for him to roam around. He might as well let go of the line a little to avoid Rambo's strong phase.
He tried to grab it but to no avail. Ouze's suppression continued.
He was already good at Garp's range. With Caitlin, who had the longest range in the early game, and with Morgana's harassment, their power was even more powerful.
Jack didn't have Tam's help in this round, so his laning error rate was reduced by a few levels. He also accidentally received Morgana's Q, and Policewoman's combo hit him with a headshot, leaving him with low HP.
Fortunately, Jack chose to bring a teleport for this round. Otherwise, he would have lost an entire wave of minions in the 40 seconds he wasted returning to the city and going online.
Lin Yan saw Jack return to the city to replenish his HP, and glanced at the bottom tower's HP. He knew that his duo was being tortured.
"Xiao Tian, go back to the city and fix your shoes. We'll go to the bottom lane in five minutes." He had to think of a way to salvage the situation for his team's bottom lane.
At the very least, he couldn't let the defense tower be destroyed prematurely. Otherwise, if Policewoman successfully changed lanes, the top laner Jin Gong's development would be severely hindered. It might even affect the Canyon Vanguard that spawned in ten minutes.
"Five minutes?" Phyllostachys Pubescens glanced at the minimap. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind. "Tsk tsk!"
After eating the red buff, he decided to clear out the Stone Beetle's camp. He also decided to go to the bottom lane to check out the situation and confuse Ouze.
"Xiao Tian gave up on the river crab and cleared six groups of minions in advance. He went around the triangular bushes to gank at the bottom lane!"
However, Ouze had set up a vision of the triangular bushes in advance, so Mongoose's whereabouts were completely exposed.
"Troll used the pillar to push Policewoman up, but Ouze immediately used the rope net to retreat and widen the distance between himself and Bull's Head!"
Phyllostachys Pubescens was already mentally prepared for the failure of his gank. He retreated to his own jungle, and when he returned to the city, he made an accessory in the bushes that connected the bottom lane and the river.
When he returned to the spring, he bought a pair of straw sandals, a long sword, and a True Eye. He then rushed to the bottom lane again.
This gank was very important to him. He could only succeed, and failure was not an option.
Since Mongoose started from the top half of the map, the spawn time of the minions was 150 seconds. The Devil's Swamp Frog and Three Wolves in the top half of the map would spawn around 4 minutes 45 seconds to 5 minutes.
If he wanted to attack the bottom lane after 5 minutes, he would have to give up on the two groups of minions in the top half of the map. Since the Saucepan Nanqiang also started from the top half of the map, the two camps on the top half of the map would spawn at almost the same time.
By then, the Saucepan would definitely spawn in the top half of the map, and Mongoose would appear in the bottom half of the map. The Nanqiang would naturally cross the river and go into the jungle.
With two groups of minions, there would be a difference of 400 gold coins between the two groups of minions. If he could not catch anyone in this wave, Mongoose would definitely be at a disadvantage in the jungle.
"Jin Gong, you need to be more aggressive …" Lin Yan took advantage of the fact that he could not put much pressure on himself during the laning phase. He used his drill to kill minions while observing the three lanes. "It's okay. Don't worry about it. The Nanqiang is still spawning in the bottom half of the map."
In order to harass Xiao Tian, the Saucepan had crossed the river to harass YM's camp. In addition, he had eaten a River Crab and wasted a lot of time. Lin Yan calculated that the Saucepan had not returned to the city yet.
Jin Gong listened to every word Lin Yan said. The Xiba used the minions to push the sixth wave of minions in and sent an invitation to Emperor for a blood swap.
Emperor was excited when he saw this. Orne had not been afraid of anyone in the laning phase. The percentage damage of W [Bellows Flame Breath] and his shield could smash most of the top laners.
At the end of the blood swap, Jin Gong was forced to return to the city with low HP.
"Go online on foot and eat the Magical Swamp Frog at home." Lin Yan marked the Magical Swamp Frog camp.
"F * ck …" Phyllostachys Pubescens came to the bushes behind the next tower and waited for Lin Yan to get into position. When he heard his mid laner's words, he blurted out, "Are you playing with the transfer payment here?"
This was equivalent to sucking his blood to fatten up the Xiba!
"Keep the goodies within the family." Lin Yan teased. "It's better than giving it to the Nanqiang, right?"
He controlled his temperature and waited for the eighth wave of minions to arrive.
He gave the minions the Demineralizer to the ranged soldiers and activated the Q [Pyromaniac Feast] at a dangerous temperature. Together with the normal attacks, the minions were roasted to low HP. When the second Q was cast, they would all be cleaned up.
Unwilling to be outdone, he went up to push the minions. He did not care about the loss of HP. He just wanted to clear out all the minions.
However, the Comet Thain's weakness showed again. With the main E [Killer Roar], his pushing speed was not as fast as Huang Wenlan Bo's.
Lin Yan waited for the skill to change before he continued to control the Galaxy Magic Suit God. The barbecue stall owner spread the flames evenly on each of the minions. After successfully pushing the minions, he retreated to the bottom of the tower and returned to the city.
Since the distance was too far, there was no way to interrupt him. Thus, he took two steps forward. When he saw that Lin Yan was indeed returning to the city and was not playing any tricks, he breathed a sigh of relief and went back to eat minions.
Lin Yan returned to the city and spent 800 gold coins to synthesize the shoes. Then, he used EWQ to scroll on the keyboard and raised the cooldown to 50 degrees.
At that moment, the icon of the shoes in the equipment bar lit up!
The last time he used Predator, it was at level 3 and the cooldown was 144 seconds. Now, it had just changed.
After 1.5 seconds of channeling time, he activated the Wolf Head special effect in the spring water!
Originally, in the eyes of the audience, this was just an ordinary return to the city to resupply. Even the director wanted to change the screen to look at other positions. If it was not for the delay setting that helped them capture this detail, they might have missed it!
"Wolf Head activated … Is he going to teleport next?!"
Mille saw that Lin Yan was standing still in the spring water and knew that this Predator was definitely not going to be used to repair the line.
As expected, the eye of the bush where Phyllostachys Pubescens had failed to gank previously lit up with a dazzling light!
Amidst the cheers of tens of thousands of audience members, another Predator was activated from God's perspective!
This time, the distance was very close. The scarlet Wolf Head symbol had already appeared above Ouze and Shi Senming's heads!
Ouze was shocked. He thought that there was only one Rambo. Who would have thought that Troll, who had failed to gank him a minute ago, was also here!
"Can you protect me?" He was still asking for support from his teammates.
However, Saucepan was currently farming Stone Beetles in the upper half of the map. It was too far away to rush over. If the Divinity was lured by Jin Gong for a blood swap and was not in a good state, the teleportation would probably be a suicide mission …
Only one account was left!
Mi Dehu was originally waiting in the middle lane to kill the ninth wave of Artillery Soldiers to level up to level 6. He did not expect YM's Nakano to make a move.
The moment he saw Troll appear, he used the teleportation skill to protect his teammates!
"Xiao Tian used Predator to quickly rush to the battlefield. The ice pillar blocked Ouze, who was unable to retreat in time!"
The slow effect of the Ice Pillar made it difficult for Policewoman to move. Liu Qingsong's Bull's Head also used Bull's Horn W's [Reckless Charge] to rush forward!
"Xiao Ming reacted quickly and put a Magic Immunity Shield on Ouze!"
However, Liu Qingsong learned his lesson this time. He did not rush to use [Earth Crush]. When he saw the Black Shield on top of Ouze's head, he chose to use [Trample] first. He wanted to use continuous magic damage to shatter the Black Shield!
"Ouze's Black Shield has disappeared. He was forced to give up the Rope Net and retreat. Xiao Ming used [Dark Imprisonment] to force Rambo to get up!"
Shi Senming's timing was very accurate. The [Dark Imprisonment] accurately trapped Lin Yan in the bushes.
However, even though he was trapped, he could still use skills!
At this time, another red whirlpool disappeared. Cheyenne, who had his account cancelled, also appeared in the bottom lane!
"Verus, flash forward. Use [Evil Spirit Arrow Barrage] to slow down Policewoman and Morgana!"
Lin Yan followed up with his electronic harpoon, aiming at Policewoman!
Ouze used [Flash] to dodge, but the second harpoon came right after!
He still wanted to move, but with his speed slowed, he was unable to do so. He was stuck at the limit of 800 yards and was hit by the electronic harpoon!
The harpoon with Predator damage reduced Ouze's HP to half!
"Let's go, let's go!"
The situation was not right. Xiao Hu, who did not have any big skills, recognized the reality and ran back to the middle lane through the triangular bushes.
"YM's four players swarm forward to kill Ouze. Don't let go! Continue to chase Xiao Ming!"
Morgana, who had used [Flash] and [QE], was the next piece of meat on the chopping board!
Lin Yan used [Earth Crush] to accelerate forward. The flames kept burning, and he worked with his teammates to kill Morgana!
The YM fans in the stands were immediately excited. RNG's core player had died. This was definitely a huge boost to the team's morale!
[10% discount?]
[You can't hide forever. Ouze still has to die!]
[This is called not forgetting your original intentions. Daring to catch and daring to die is the Ouze I know!]
[Who can survive?
YM's Nakano doesn't give them a chance!]
"YM took the lead in tearing open the bottom lane and got the two heads of Ouze and Xiao Ming!"
Mille glanced and continued, "But Ouze can teleport. To be honest, this death will only slightly slow down Policewoman's pace of advancement. It won't completely suppress her!"
Remember also agreed with Mille's point. "That's true. Both heads were taken by Lambo. Jack's Verus only got two assists. The economic advantage won't be enough for him to make a comeback."
Doll also nodded seriously. "The main thing is that Liu Qingsong took Bull's Head to fight Morgana. If his teammates don't come, they won't be able to fight back. They can only be suppressed by RNG's bottom lane."
At the same time, the Saucepan used Slide Step to cross the river and invaded YM's top half.
Although he saw that Vampire was not in a good state when he came back, he was mentally prepared. However, when he saw that the Magical Swamp Frog's camp was really empty, Spicy Saucepan cursed in frustration.
YM's attack on the bottom lane was obviously premeditated!
