Doll, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but sigh. "TOP is in a bit of a mess. Xiong Xiong's rhythm is gone!"
Level 2 Princes was already strong. He took a long detour to get to the bottom of the river. He wanted to kill and steal, but he didn't expect to get himself killed!
How was he supposed to play?
"Jess revived and handed over the teleport. Mongoose's Rock Sparrow passed through the middle lane and rushed to the top of the river. He wants to start with two river crabs!"
Talia used her passive [Floating Stone Rush] and the base movement speed increased after the update. She arrived at her destination in a few seconds. Rock Spikes and Rock Spikes quickly ate the river crabs.
The rich EXP from the wild monsters allowed him to rise to level 3. At the same time, the health recovery effect from killing the river crabs also raised Talia's health bar to 60%.
"Rock Sparrow still has four groups of wild monsters that haven't been eaten. This development is amazing!"
Mille saw Rock Sparrow farming faster and faster and couldn't help but sigh. "On the other side, Princes can only try to get to level 3 first!"
Xiong Xiong's face was tense and he didn't say anything. When he wasn't smiling, he looked quite cold. He looked like a cold-blooded killer.
When he revived just now, he had thought it through.
It was obvious that the level 1 team had been set up by YM.
They didn't know how the opponent had predicted that they would invade the top half of the map. They had crouched in the bushes in the blue zone in advance, lowering Boulogne's health and delaying ppgod's online time.
Then there was a series of chain reactions.
The support team was slow to come online. YM didn't even help the jungler team. They directly rushed to start the game. This way, Old Dream could only go solo. As a result, the best path to support the bottom lane was occupied by YM.
Then there was the matter of TOP being stuck at the pass for a few seconds by Liu Qingsong alone.
Xiong Xiong knew very well that even if YM had such a geographical advantage, they would have won the battle by a hair's breadth. If not for Lin Yan's skill and courage, pulling Boulogne so that ppgod couldn't threaten the rest of the team, absorbing damage and selling his health to escape, and finally teleporting over to finish off the battlefield, TOP might not have lost.
The strong early combat ability of the second half was the reason why he and his teammates dared to take on the team.
However, YM used early tactics to seize the geographical advantage, allowing the bottom lane to rush to the battlefield ahead of time. They used the time difference to bridge the gap between the strength of the two teams, and then used their tyrannical individual strength to forcefully win this balanced team battle.
Xiong Xiong could only say that he was sincerely convinced.
He had never seen such ridiculous tactics and teamwork in the secondary league before.
However, he was also very confused. How did YM know about the blue buff that he had used to invade the first half of the server?
In the commentator's seat, Mille also made a reasonable guess while there was no conflict in the Summoner's Canyon.
"It should be the work of the YM coaches. The information they collected before the game helped the players accurately judge the early invasion movements of TOP." He expressed his thoughts. "After catching Boulogne off guard, the two-man team learned that ppGod couldn't go online immediately after returning to the city to seize the route. Liu Qingsong also went to the junction between the middle lane and the river to take a look. It's obvious that he was prepared for the second half of the game."
Doll played the role of a curious baby beside him. "Then how did YM know that Xiong Xiong would come to fight for the river crab?"
"This..." Mille was suddenly speechless.
He realized that with his level of understanding, he still couldn't explain this problem.
In fact, Lin Yan had guessed at the time.
Moreover, Red Rice didn't do too much research on TOP before the game. Gouba only emphasized the hot spots of the opponent's movements in the first ten minutes.
In other words, even the early invasion route of TOP was also guessed by Lin Yan.
For YM, there was no need to make a big deal out of a regular season match like it was an international match. The club had already taken a long break, so they had to make good use of the limited time. For them, researching the version was more important than targeting a team in the upper middle of the league.
For this kind of match, Lin Yan could make on-the-spot judgments.
Although it was a guess, it wasn't a blind guess. Lin Yan used his keen senses to analyze the information and judge the situation. He tried to predict the opponent's most likely course of action and then directed the others to respond.
The difference in strength between the two teams was too great. In addition, TOP had Boulogne, so the strength of this hero's team was ridiculously high. They could basically crush the opponent in battle. Even if they didn't exchange fire, they had to seize the opportunity to grasp the opponent's jungle route. Otherwise, it would be a waste of the natural advantage that heroes brought.
When the pro teams saw that the opponent had Boulogne, they would naturally be on guard. No idiot would let the opponent's team get the kill.
In this kind of situation, the biggest value of a jungle invasion was often to make use of the opponent's positioning and strong invasion to disrupt the opponent's jungle rhythm and establish an early advantage for one's own side.
In the current version, the most important thing in the early stages of the jungle was the river crab, which was a moving experience and gold. Whoever could control both river crabs in the early stages would have the advantage in the early stages.
When Lin Yan saw TOP's lineup at first glance, he felt that the opponent was very ambitious.
Kenan, Princes, Jess, Verus, and Boulogne were all quite strong in the early stages. They were all good brothers who could help snatch the river crab.
Lin Yan felt that if Xiong Xiong only wanted to start the game smoothly and each side ate a river crab, then Xiong Xiong would be wasting the early stage advantage that Boulogne and Princes had.
He made plans in advance to guard against the opponent's possible double river crab opening.
If TOP wanted to get the double river crab, the easiest way was to invade the top half of the map.
This was because if they broke into YM's jungle and chased Mongoose to the top of the map, then Xiong Xiong wouldn't be able to snatch the top river crab. YM's top half had Karma and Lu Xian. These were all BUG-level solo heroes in the early stages. They would have no problem protecting Mongoose.
Xiong Xiong could only do the opposite and invade the top half of the map. Then, he would rush to the bottom half of the map and use Princes' level 2 advantage and the help of his teammates to snatch the bottom river crab from Rock Sparrow.
After all, TOP's Verus and Boulogne would definitely push the top lane under normal circumstances. With Jess in the middle lane, it wouldn't be a problem for them to come over and cover him together.
Once he snatched the bottom river crab, Mongoose wouldn't dare to go to the top river to trade for resources. In the current version, the double river crab and any group of wild monsters could raise the jungler to level 3.
In this case, even if Xiaosu snatched the river crab, he wouldn't be able to level up. A level 2 Rock Sparrow didn't have much of an impact on the battle. If Xiong Xiong accidentally got the river crab, then the level 3 Princes would be different.
Invading the top half of the map was what Lin Yan expected TOP to do to snatch the double river crab.
That was why he brought the two jungler brothers and crouched in the bushes in the blue zone at the start of the game.
Anyway, they wouldn't lose anything even if they couldn't crouch there. Xiao Tian could take advantage of the situation to open the blue zone and eat the top river crab with the help of Jin Gong and Lin Yan.
Against a hero like Rock Sparrow, being able to eat a single river crab at level 2 would be considered a success.
Who would have thought that TOP would actually walk right into the trap that Lin Ran had set for them?
Then, Liu Qingsong's intelligent and unconventional eye position directly sounded the death knell for TOP's loss in the bottom half of the map.
"After Mongoose ate his third wolf and Magical Swamp Frog, he went straight to the top lane. He wants to cooperate with Jin Gong to catch a wave of Zoom!"
Phyllostachys Pubescens took full advantage of Rock Sparrow's high mobility in the jungle. Talia stepped on a skateboard made of rock and quickly rushed to the top lane. She passed through the bushes in the top lane and tried to surround Kenan from behind the tower.
Phyllostachys Pubescens was very sensitive to the position of junglers. He was sure that Princes wouldn't be able to reach the top lane in time.
This was because after Bear died in the bottom half of the map, he saw with his own eyes that he had passed through the middle lane and rushed to the top half of the map.
A normal jungler would definitely rush to the top half of the map after seeing the opponent's movement path and rush to loot the top half of the map.
The reason was very simple. Once Bear's position was discovered in the bottom half of the map, he wouldn't be able to get the few groups of monsters in the top half of the map. Mongoose would definitely devour them all with the help of Karma and Lu Xian's strong protection.
If Princes went to the top half of the map, how would he farm?
Red or Stone Beetle was possible, but he definitely wouldn't start from F6. That way, the route of the jungle would be completely messed up. If he farmed all the way up, he would have to go back to the bottom half of the map.
In other words, no matter what, among the three groups of monsters in Bear's top half of the map, the Beak Bird camp closest to the middle lane would definitely be the last to be farmed.
Since Mongoose had finished eating the river crabs and also farmed his third wolf and Magical Swamp Frog, he calculated the time and knew that Princes should be fighting F6. Naturally, he wouldn't be able to reach the top lane immediately.
Mongoose didn't have to worry about anything.
"Karma's early game pushing ability is quite strong. He's already pushed the minions under Kenan Tower!"
Jin Gong first used Sanskrit Incantation and Q's Spirit Flame to successfully slow down Kenan. He then extended Psychic Chain to bind Kenan.
At first, Zoom wanted to wait for Phyllostachys Pubescens to use W's Rock Spike before using Blink to dodge two skills at the same time. However, Xiao Tian's skill was very tight. He clearly wanted to wait for Psychic Chain to take effect before using Rock Spike to control him.
"Seeing that Psychic Chain was about to form, Kenan finally couldn't hold back and used Blink to avoid being bound under the tower!"
However, with this Blink, he appeared next to Rock Sparrow.
"Brother Gongzi, use E's Inspire on Mongoose, then stand at the edge of the tower and tank the tower!"
Mongoose laid down Rock Scattering Formation, then used normal attacks and Rock Piercing to knock out Electrocution.
He knew that Rock Spike was very difficult to hit without his teammates providing crowd control, so he simply didn't use it.
"Zoom's HP is dropping very quickly. He's using E's Esoteric!
Thunder Armor and wants to speed up the stack of Storm Mark on Rock Sparrow! "
Because Kenan didn't have W's Esoteric!
Lightning Blade's passive effect, in order to trigger Thunder Seal's stun, he had to use the three skills, Q, and WE.
This way, the activation of the passive effect was too slow. Mongoose took the opportunity to steal a lot of damage. By the time Kenan threw his Shuriken to stun him, Zoom's HP had already been emptied.
"Princes from Xiong Xiong rushed over at the crucial moment. EQ Combo and W's slow down Rock Sparrow!"
However, Princes who didn't use Blink was a bit far away. Dragon Smash didn't send Phyllostachys Pubescens flying. Only W's slow down effect from Holy Shield of Gold kept him there.
"Don't worry about me, hurry up and leave!"
Little Sleepyhead commanded Jin Gong. His reaction was very fast. After recovering from the stun, he took a step towards the top of the tower. W [Rock Spike] was placed between him and Xiong Xiong with some prediction.
If Princes stepped on it, he would be pushed away. If he didn't step on it, he would stay where he was and be pulled away by Rock Sparrow.
"Xiong Xiong went forward and used War Pulse, but Rock Sparrow is very healthy now!" Doll had a clear view of the situation from God's perspective. "It's hard to kill him with this kind of damage!"
The Rock Spike sent Princes flying, while Mongoose ran away without looking back.
Because he turned his head and took a step towards the top of the tower, he didn't enter the tower's range. The Rock Spike hit Princes, but the tower didn't hit him.
"He didn't use Blink and EQ Combo. Xiong Xiong can't catch up at all!"
Mille wanted to cheer when he saw this scene. However, on second thought, this was an internal LPL league after all. He couldn't be too biased.
"Wuhu!"
Sparrow, who had escaped death, let out a cheerful cheer. The YM fans below the stage were also very excited and started cheering.
[Good catch!]
[Previously, you said that Rock Sparrow can't catch people. Did you see how Zoom died?]
[Someone said that catching people with a Rock Spike is really disgusting. If you had a teammate with crowd control skills, wouldn't this be a military training?]
[This Princes is really a pig's nose. If you had a normal jungler, this Rock Sparrow would have been long gone.]
[XSWL, get someone who knows how to use a BUG and give you a Blink, right?]
Mongoose had been laughing for a long time.
Rock Sparrow against Princes. With such a big early advantage, he didn't even know how to lose.
"How is it? I'm not good at..." Before he could finish his sentence, a kill notification appeared in Summoner's Canyon.
(Holy Spear Ranger) YMRan killed TOPKnight (Future Guardian)!
"Holy sh * t, Brother Ran is so strong!" Mongoose changed his tone at lightning speed.
When the live audience saw this kill notification, they were even more excited!
They didn't see the mid lane camera the entire time. It was only when the kill notification appeared that the caster cut the camera to it. At this time, Ludger's corpse was almost cold!
[Caster, what the f * ck are you doing?]
[You don't have to cut the screen if you don't know how to cut the screen!]
[I went to interview the caster but failed. Why?
Because I have hands.]
[Everyone says that LPL is the first division. Can you guess what level this caster and commentator are?]
The caster also realized that he had made a mistake in his work and quickly replayed it.
The two casters on the commentary platform also focused on the screen. "Knight has 50% health left, but he has used up all his Corruption Potions. Brother Ran has a little more health left. His health is about the same, but the minions have entered the TOP tower..."
The moment Princes appeared in the top lane, Lucian pulled out his guns and rushed towards Princes who was under the tower. There were still two minions left in the sixth wave of TOP minions under the tower.
W's [Fervent Bullet] was very precise, and it was thrown out just as the TOP cannon was about to hit the Cannon Chariot Soldiers.
"Brother Ran blocked the tower's attack!" Mille blurted out.
The tower also had an attack speed. Since it had already fired one shot, it entered Sage Mode for a short period of time. It would have to wait for a while before it could change its attack target and charge up for another shot.
Lin Yan took advantage of this to complete his freeloading.
"W took two passive shots. First, he removed the Skeletal Plating. Then, he used E [Grim Pursuit] to cancel it and hit Lu Xian with a strong attack. Knight used a close QE to hit Lu Xian!" Doll spoke at an extremely fast speed. His mouth looked like it was scalded.
It couldn't be helped. The two mid laners were too fast and the caster did not slow down the broadcast. If he did not hurry up, the kill scene would have ended.
"Jayce used W [Super Charge] to max attack speed and switched to Hammer mode to hit him!"
Just as Heavenly Leap was about to hit Lin Yan, Lu Xian's gun shot out a bright holy light and pierced through his body!
After the strong attack triggered Vulnerability, the penetrating holy light's damage was increased. After Jayce died at level 2, he did not have the money to buy other equipment. Now, he only had the Decay Potion that he had used up.
At level 4, Jayce's HP was only 760. Even if he used Pupa Transformation, it was useless. Half of his HP was not enough to withstand Lin Yan's high damage. Moreover, there was still a wave of YM's Cannon Carrier to help. The damage was not lacking at all.
"Lu Xian, use a normal attack and take Jayce's life!"
Before Zhuo Ding died, he used Hammer mode E [Thunder Strike]. Along with the cannon fire from the tower, Lu Xian's HP bar was about to be emptied.
But the moment the head was in his hands, the blue light of leveling up surrounded Lu Xian's body!
Originally, leveling up to level 5 alone required the experience of all six waves of minions. When Lin Yan started to cross the tower, there were still two BUNs on the TOP that had not been killed.
But the experience gained from soloing the opponent allowed Lu Xian to level up directly!
The sudden increase in HP helped Lin Yan to withstand the cannon fire. He survived with less than 50 HP left!
After watching the whole process of the kill, the live audience was boiling. The noise of all kinds of emotions filled the stadium!
"Oh my god, is this the limit of Tai Chi?"
Doll said in an exaggerated tone, "If Brother Ran did not block that attack, the tower attack would have been replaced!"
Mille could not help but sigh, "Such details. Was this also in Brother Ran's calculations?
He was able to complete a tower solo kill with only half his HP. Knight is so lucky! "
Zhuo Ding sighed. He did not expect Lin Yan to act so quickly. He had just appeared on the top lane and this person had already started to cross the tower. He did not even give any time to react. It was already too late when he wanted to leave.
Lin Yan was also quite surprised.
He did not expect to survive this tower.
As long as he could replace Jayce at the bottom of the tower, Knight who did not have a teleport would lose a lot of creeps.
He blocked the tower attack because he wanted to complete the kill smoothly and not cause any trouble.
After all, Lin Yan did not have enough time to prepare. The moment Princes appeared on the top lane, he acted decisively.
In just a few seconds, he could not calculate the total damage of the tower and the dual-form Jayce. It felt like he was forcing himself on Jayce.
However, it was still a surprise to be able to die one less time …
"Teleport, Kenan teleported!"
Liu Qingsong had nothing to do on the bottom lane. He did not want to see Jack kill creeps, so he simply became a war reporter. He would switch to wherever there was a battle.
At this time, seeing the light of a teleport in the bushes above Lin Yan, he quickly reminded his mid laner.
Lin Yan did not have the habit of Taobao when he returned to the city with low HP. He retreated down the tower when he saw the teleport light up.
"I'm here, don't panic!"
Building Stone, who had just escaped from Princes' pursuit with Mongoose, had also teleported. His destination was YM's first tower!
"Zoom wants to TP down and take out Lu Xian. This is a good opportunity!" Mille sharply noticed that Lin Yan's E [Grim Pursuit] had not finished rotating.
"Jin Gong may have teleported, but he did not have time to return to the city. He has no equipment and his HP is not healthy …" Doll was still a little hesitant. "Can he really protect his teammates?"
Zoom landed first and activated E [Ultimate!
Thunder Armor] to rush towards Lin Yan!
However, Lin Yan took the time to teleport to almost 1000 yards away. Zoom could not catch up immediately.
When Lu Xian reached the bottom of the tower, Jin Gong had also teleported to the ground. The first thing he did was to cast a shield on Lin Yan. At the same time, he blocked in front of him with his own body and used Q [Spirit Flame] to slow down Kenan!
"He can't attack!" Doll's tone was mixed with a hint of schadenfreude. "Zoom is going to die from anger!"
Zoom, who looked like a Snorlax, gritted his teeth as he watched Lin Yan with low HP run out of his shooting range. He could only vent his anger on Karma.
Q attacked first with his Shuriken and then used W to detonate the Mark of the Storm on Karma.
He was still short of a sliver of HP.
If he could make up for it with a normal attack, Karma would be dead!
But he had used Blink in the last wave when he was being teleported!
This time, Zoom had no way of getting to the two low HP players in YM!
"Rock Sparrow is coming." Doll only had time to say this one sentence. "She's so fast!"
The chain reaction of the version change was finally showing. With an increase of 15 movement speed and the buff from the passive [Floating Stone Rush], Rock Sparrow's mobility had increased by leaps and bounds!
Talia came out from the bushes in the middle lane, throwing Stone Rush and Stone Formation in front of Kenan.
"Zoom has to retreat. He can't handle Rock Sparrow's high burst!"
When Mongoose made his first attack, the live audience realized that something was wrong.
The skill damage and Electrocution took away half of Kenan's HP!
Rock Sparrow took a hit, but it was a clear ability. It did not reduce her damage. Furthermore, Rock Sparrow could increase her burst with Electrocution. Her damage was not inferior to the mid laners at the time!
Zoom wanted to leave, but it was too late.
Without Blink, he was chased by Mongoose. In the end, Rock Spikes forced him to move and Stone Rush finished him off!
"The kill ratio is 5: 0. Top's mid and mid laners are all dead!" Mille couldn't help but shout.
Bear had just rushed to the mid lane with his halberd, but he could only pick up the rotund Kenan's corpse.
He didn't have time to take out his shoes, and he didn't have his own AJ like Ning Wang.
Princes's movement speed was still too slow in front of Rock Sparrow.
He was so angry that he wanted to punch the table.
Ever since the top laner was overrun, he had been one step behind the other. He could never keep up with the opponent's pace. He couldn't even eat Ol 'Eight's dumplings when they were hot.
"With such a big disadvantage, I think the first canyon is going to be lost." Mille was still analyzing the situation. "Top has no ability to fight for it."
"That's true. Brother Ran went back to the city and got a Birgivot Scimitar. This equipment..." Doll was stunned when he saw Jess take 20% of Lin Yan's HP with one shot, but Lucian retracted it with a few shots. "Jess's poke has no effect at all!"
No one in Top's team voice chat spoke.
Zhuo Ding didn't say much to begin with. He just played his own game when he was at a disadvantage.
Top laner zoom died twice in a row. His face collapsed as if he was wearing a mask of pain.
Bear was a newcomer. Compared to this group of players who had been in the starting position for a year, there was no estrangement, but there was also no familiarity. Naturally, he didn't dare to command his teammates casually.
Fortunately, the team's commander, ppGod, wasn't autistic. He was quite passionate when he played.
"Let's release the first canyon. Bear, you come over and take the dragon. We'll slowly trade for resources!"
Bear obeyed. He cleared the bottom half of the map, went back to the city to restock his equipment, and then cleared the top half of the red buff. He arrived at the bottom of the map around eight minutes on time, ready to swap out the dragon while YM was fighting the canyon.
"Mongoose didn't go to the top half of the map at all. He brought people to the dragon pit!"
Bear was stunned when he saw Rock Sparrow.
What are you doing?
You don't want to fight the vanguard?
Phyllostachys Pubescens didn't care about that.
He was the boss when he had the advantage. I want all the neutral resources!
Who wants to play the game of trading resources with you?
I have the advantage. What right do you have to take things from me?
"Rock Sparrow's big move directly seals the path. Brother Ran's big move opens the path!"
Du du du du du!
Holy Lance's bullets poured down on Princes and Boulogne's faces.
Even though ppGod raised the anti-theft door, he couldn't stop Lin Yan's equipment from being too good. His health was still reduced by a lot.
"Princes EQ through Rock Sparrow's curtain. Boulogne also used W [Stand Up]. The two of them successfully escaped, but what about the canyon?"
Mille roared. The Earth Dragon was taken by Rock Sparrow.
Phyllostachys Pubescens didn't even look back as he went straight to the top half of the canyon.
"Top still wants to give way!
If they continue to fight like this, their disadvantage will only increase! "
Doll sensed that the balance of the game had completely tilted towards YM.
"Rock Sparrow's ability to roll a snowball is too strong after using Boots."
Rock Sparrow's movement speed was now over 500 points. Normal heroes wouldn't be able to catch up to her even if they bought five-speed shoes.
For junglers, movement speed was their lifeblood.
In an advantageous situation, movement speed determined how many resources the jungler could get in a limited time and how many waves of attacks they could launch.
In a disadvantageous situation, movement speed determined whether the jungler could rush to the battlefield to get the kill as soon as possible, as well as the ability to escape to protect their KDA.
"Rock Sparrow took the canyon and went straight to the top lane. She wants to catch Kenan again!"
Lin Yan was now acting as a hired thug. He followed behind Rock Sparrow and stuffed two guns into his opponent's mouth.
"Lucian's DPS is too high even though he has already lost!"
Zoom retreated just in time. However, Lin Yan caught up with him and dealt a series of damage. He was forced to use Blink again.
"The top lane tower has been destroyed. Xiao Tian directly summoned the vanguard and plans to push all the way there!"
The destruction of the defense tower led to the fall of the jungle.
Xiong Xiong realized that he didn't do anything, but all the monsters in the jungle were gone.
The last hits of both junglers were quickly pulled apart.
"Lucian is also giving up resources to Rock Sparrow. Mongoose returned to the city this time and took out a Talisman Echo jungler and a Killer Book!"
Lin Yan understood. Since his teammates were fat, it wasn't impossible for him to be a jungler.
After all, he wasn't the only carry in YM.
Phyllostachys Pubescens, who took out a Killer Book, was really crazy. Liu Qingsong also abandoned Jack and joined the wanderer camp.
"Bull's Head Hex blinked and followed up with a double WQ. Rock Sparrow added damage..."
Rock Spikes triggered the damage of Rock Spilling Circle and directly killed the half-health Verus!
"What kind of damage is this?!" Mille was stunned.
The spectators who came to watch the game had the same thought as him.
In an instant, there were endless screams!
Rock Sparrow's performance wasn't over yet. Mongoose took out a Killer Book at 17 minutes and forced Rock Sparrow into a high explosive assassin. As long as the skill hit, the opponent would either die or be crippled.
At 21 minutes, after the Dragon was killed by YM, Mongoose's economy was enough for him to buy a staff.
At this point, Phyllostachys Pubescens had Boots of Magic + Talisman Echo + Killer Book + 18 stacks of Killer Book in hand.
"Rock Sparrow directly moved to the side and blocked the path of the TOP players outside the highlands!"
Doll shouted in an exaggerated tone, "TOP's two Cs can't move, they can't pass through the curtains!"
It wasn't just them. Zoom's Kenan didn't have the ability to move either and could only be slaughtered!
Rock Sparrow's max level Rock Spikes came crashing down like a meteor. Together with Rock Spilling Circle and Rock Spikes, the damage was explosive!
"Is this the charm of Rock Sparrow jungler?" Doll shouted in disbelief, "TOP has been melted!"
In a wave of four kills, Mongoose took down TOP's base with a score of 1109 with his teammates!
