The ten players quickly left the fountain after buying their equipment. Su Cheng was still analyzing the lineups of the two teams.
"Our lineup here is still quite complete. Wine Barrel and Aoun can both stack Kesha's Plasma effect when they start the team. Crocodile's mid-game combat power is also very strong. If we add a Blue Vampiric Blade, he can last for 30 to 35 minutes!"
The Blue Sucking Blade was simply a blessing for Crocodile and Jax. Although it was expensive, it was easy to use. As long as they had a Blood Hand as a base and a Blue Sucking Blade, they would be terrifyingly strong, whether it was in the mid-late game or in the mid-late game.
"Overall, we're considered to be a lineup that's more towards the middle and late stages. In the early stages, we'll focus on Wine Barrel, Hammerstone, and Crocodile. In the late stages, we'll still have Aoun's passive ability to smash equipment and Kesha. Simply put, we don't have any obvious weaknesses other than our short hands …
Su Cheng spoke very quickly. "On the other hand, the Korean team is different. They are very strong in the early and mid-game. In the mid-late game, Zooey and Eich won't be able to defeat Aoun and Crocodile without an absolute advantage in equipment."
"If KOR wants to win this game, they have to speed up and snowball the game as soon as possible," Su Cheng concluded. "In short, we have to drag the game into the late game, while the Korean team focuses on the early and mid-game."
In the past, the LPL division was constantly fighting, trying to crush their opponents in the early and mid-game. The Korean team, on the other hand, operated peacefully and relied on the minions to drag the game into the late game.
In the first game of the Asian Games, the lineups and styles chosen by the two teams were completely different from what they usually showed.
It could be said that the two poles were reversed.
This was mainly because there was a certain amount of controversy within the Korean coaching team regarding the tactical handling of the final game.
Kkoma believed that the team should play to their strengths. It was safer and more reliable to rely on luck. The players were also more adapted to the slow pace of the game.
On the other hand, Red Mi firmly believed that embracing the early and mid-game version was the most reasonable way. Those who opposed the version would not have a good ending.
Edgar was stuck between the two of them and was in a dilemma.
Based on their relationship, Red Mi was his apprentice. In 2013 and 2014, Edgar successfully made Red Mi complete the transition from a player to a coach.
Emotionally, he naturally supported Homme.
However, the South Korean national team's official manager was Kkoma. In terms of senior-subordinate relationship, they should all obey each other.
Moreover, Edgar himself was also a firm supporter of operations. After so many years, the team's style had changed slightly, but the overall direction of Korean operations had remained the same.
In the end, Kkoma was the first to give in. Faced with the detailed early game plan submitted by the Red Rice, he chose to use the early and mid-game lineup and playstyle in the first round of the finals. If it didn't work, he would give up on this idea as soon as possible.
"Faker's summoner skill is [Purify], and the rune is a secret to unseal. This means that he won't be in any danger when facing Crocodile W's [Grim Hunt]!"
Both teams started the match as usual. As this was an important final match, both teams were more stable in the early stages of the match. Even though the Korean team had a lot of advantages in terms of their first-tier team lineup, they did not invade their opponents.
Ten people from both sides formed a long snake formation along the river to defend their own jungle.
Li Xianghe adjusted his sitting posture and looked at his monitor with a serious expression.
He respected Lin Yan very much. He felt that he was facing Lin Yan as a challenger today.
He knew very well in his heart that this might be the last time the two of them would fight on the field.
Based on SKT's current results and performance, it would be harder than ascending to heaven to advance to the S8 World Finals.
In another year, he would be 23 years old. After he passed his prime, his playing ability would only grow weaker, and it would be even more difficult to defeat Lin Yan.
At this moment, he had the best coaching team, and the strongest teammates in Korea.
Naturally, Li Xianghe would not waste this perfect opportunity for revenge. He had been waiting for this for countless days and nights.
During the training for this Asian Games, he had maintained a high intensity training of 16 hours a day.
Other than sleeping, he had been recovering his hands. Even his meal time was spent in front of the computer.
He was overdrawing his professional career.
Everything was for the sake of facing Lin Yan in his best condition today.
'Let me show you my strength!'
He flexed his fingers and controlled Zooey to move to the middle lane.
Seeing that there was no danger, Lin Yan returned to the front lane and started to support.
Faker gave him a lot of pressure at the start of the match.
Zooey, who was controlled by Li Xianghe, threw a Flying Star behind him. She held her passive, Scatter Smoke, and walked towards his face.
Although Lin Yan had Doran's Shield, Resolute's Wind of Recovery, and the two stacked together, he did not want to let his opponent take advantage of his health, so he decisively chose to retreat.
Li Xianghe was not surprised. He waited until his Scatter Smoke was about to disappear before he used his normal attack on the minions.
He had chosen Zooey for this match for a reason.
If he really wanted to have an advantage in positioning, Trickster Beauty was actually slightly better. Not only was Lefran more proficient in it, but she also had many movement skills. Coupled with the control of Phantom Chains, she could completely walk the crocodile like a dog in the middle of the game.
However, if he chose the Enchantress, the difficulty would be in controlling the front lane.
When the Enchantress's level was low and her equipment could not keep up, she could not clear the minions at all. Even the ability to exchange health that she was so proud of appeared weak under Crocodile's multiple healing.
If Lin Yan forcefully used his health to exchange for the minions' advantage, the middle lane would be tightly controlled by Crocodile before he reached Luden.
In order to obtain absolute control of the middle lane in the early game and serve Score, Li Xianghe took a step back and chose to use Zooey.
So far, the outcome was the same as he had imagined.
Lin Yan did not even dare to move forward. He could only wait for the minions' health to be reduced before using Q's [Tyrant's Fury] to clear them.
"I want to start with a double river crab. Can you guys take a look?"
After Score removed the red buff from the bottom half of the map, he discussed with his teammates as he moved to the top half of the map.
He felt that Xiao Tian was starting from the top half of the map. After all, letme had chosen Aoun to play Shen. Wine Barrel could not help Blacksmith Sheep in the early game.
It was reasonable for Gulagas to start from the top. Liu Qingsong's Hammer Stone in the bottom lane might be able to create an opportunity to attack.
Score went to the top lane with this idea in mind.
As an experienced player, he felt that Zhao Yao would first take down the River Crab before moving to the bottom half of the map. This way, Wine Barrel's development would not be affected.
His guess was right. Xiao Tian had finished farming the red buff from the top half of the map and was about to eat the crab. He did not expect to bump into Score.
"Mongoose's level two Wine Barrel can't win against Zhao Xin. Moreover, he doesn't have the right to the top and middle lanes. He can only give up on the river crab and turn to farm his own minions!"
Score saw that Zhao Yao had retreated and did not pursue further. He knew when to stop.
After eating the top river crab, he used Li Xianghe's advantage in the middle lane to successfully take down the bottom river crab.
As the double river crab king started, Zhao Xin had the initial advantage in the early game.
Lin Yan was still eager to try out Crocodile in the middle lane after leveling up to level three.
He already had the ability to fight in the early game.
He wanted to use his own ability to force out Li Xianghe's Purification.
This way, Xiao Tian would have the opportunity to gank and kill Zooey with Flash.
However, Li Xianghe kept a certain distance from Lin Yan.
Lin Yan had just taken a step forward.
He immediately pulled back and threw out a Flying Star with his Q skill.
His control of the distance was excellent.
If Lin Yan wanted to get close to his face, he would have to cast two Stage E skills. However, this would not only make it difficult for him to retreat, but it would also consume the Rage that he had accumulated with great difficulty.
If it was a normal W [Cruel Hunt], not only would he not have the advantage in Blood Swap, it would also be impossible for him to force out Zooey's Purification.
Therefore, Lin Yan pretended to retreat. He wanted to wait for Faker to turn around so that he could immediately turn around and move forward.
However, Faker's sense of smell was very sharp. He was not fooled at all.
He could obviously determine Lin Yan's intention. Under such circumstances, he would not give Crocodile the chance to get close to his face.
"Faker, drink a Corruption Potion and use his Time Distortion Potion to increase his movement speed. Start pulling Crocodile!"
Sparks flew everywhere as the normal attack hit the opponent at the limit. The Meteor and Hypnosis Bubble flew towards Lin Ran one after the other.
Zooey's normal attack range was 550 yards, while Crocodile's E displacement range was 450 yards.
This meant that Lin Yan could turn around and counterattack. He could use W [Cruel Hunt] to bite Li Xianghe.
However, the Flying Star and Hypnosis Bubble dispelled his thoughts.
Currently, he did not have the exact location of Zhao Xin. If the opponent's jungler was nearby, once he used his E displacement skill and fell into a state of Hypnosis, it was very likely that he would be instantly killed by the Korean jungler.
In order to play it safe and to prevent his opponent from draining his health, Lin Yan could only control Crocodile to use E [Horizontal Charge] to the side. While avoiding the Hypnosis Bubble and Flying Star, he also passed through a KOR minion. This gave him the possibility to use his second E [Vertical Charge].
Li Xianghe used the acceleration effect to retreat and once again widened the distance between the two of them.
Lin Yan clicked his tongue and could only return resentfully.
However, after his E skill went into cooldown, Li Xianghe was not done. While Lin Yan was filling in the gaps, Li Xianghe came up and attacked him twice. He even threw in a Flying Star.
It had to be said that Li Xianghe's handling was perfect. From start to finish, he had lost almost 40% of his health.
With just this wave, Lin Yan found the feeling of playing against a top demon king in the S6 International Finals.
On Korea's SBS television station, Roaring Emperor, who was the guest commentator, saw the scene of the two midlaners tugging and yelling excitedly.
"That's Faker!
Xianghe's in a very good state today. He has a huge health advantage in the middle lane! "
The live Korean audience also cheered and waved their flags.
They originally thought that Faker would succeed if he could stall Lin Yan and prevent his opponent from gaining an advantage too early. However, they did not expect Li Xianghe to give them a big surprise today!
In the Mouse Channel, many of their countrymen saw this scene and were discussing it in the chat channel.
[F * ck, Brother Li is pulling!]
[His condition is ridiculous. How can he gain an advantage over Brother Ran?]
[The Great Demon King has lived for the third time?]
The Korean team's early offensive was not over yet. Chi Emperor used E [Eagle Soars the Sky] to glide through the jungle and successfully found Mongoose's position.
This was not very difficult. After all, Phyllostachys Pubescens had appeared in the Shanghe River before. There were not many monsters left to farm.
They found that the Wine Barrel was in the bottom half of the zone. Gulagas, who had already cleared the Triple Wolves camp, had a KO count of 12.
This meant that there were three groups of monsters.
Score glanced at the time on the upper right corner and quickly determined that the opponent did not farm the Stone Beetles in the top half of the zone. Instead, they were farming the three groups of Red Buff-F6-Triple Wolves.
In his heart, he was impressed by the opponent's excellent response.
After Mongoose failed to farm the River Crabs and was forced to leave, if he continued to head to the top half of the zone to eat the Stone Beetles, he would have to take a long detour and waste a lot of time farming.
Moreover, Wine Barrel chose to eat the Stone Beetles. Once he was hit by the Ice, Score could finish off the River Crabs and take the opportunity to invade the bottom half of the opponent's zone.
By then, Wine Barrel would not only lose the River Crabs, but also the Blue Buff, which was crucial in the early game, would fall into his pocket.
Ignoring the Stone Beetles, Wine Barrel would not be able to level up to level 4 after clearing the Blue Buff and Magical Swamp Frog. However, he was able to preserve his development as much as possible.
In short, Wine Barrel achieved a perfect stop when his teammates were at a disadvantage.
Score could not help but praise him. There was indeed a reason why his opponent could maintain his condition for the past two years.
"After Bull's Head in the bottom lane leveled up, his ability to coordinate with the Ice was quite strong. He gradually took back the initiative from the CHN team!"
The Ice Assistant's ability to coordinate was indeed a little ridiculous.
Firstly, he had a long hand with the W [Ten Thousand Arrows], which could be used to deplete the enemy's energy. Secondly, he had a slow speed, rune speed, and an advantage in range.
Su Cheng looked at the CHN team that was at a disadvantage in the Summoner's Canyon. Her tone was still calm.
It was mainly because of the disadvantage caused by the formation. Currently, it was acceptable.
The viewers watching her live stream also thought that it was not a big deal and were still chatting in their rooms.
"Score quickly found an opportunity. He waited for the second group of CHN's Sharp-Beaked Birds to respawn and rushed to the nearby bushes. When he saw Xiao Tian rushing over, he immediately attacked him!"
He estimated the approximate respawn time of this group of Sharp-Beaked Birds based on the information that Wine Barrel had previously exposed.
Score was very sure that Mongoose would definitely come to farm the Sharp-Beaked Birds.
For Wine Barrel, there was nothing more tempting than F6. Normal monsters that could be farmed quickly and did not deal any damage.
As expected, he successfully crouched down on Phyllostachys Pubescens.
At the same time, Score used the slow effect that he had on himself to continuously move forward. He blocked Wine Barrel's position and did not allow him to return to the protection of the defense tower.
"Xiao Tian threw out the slow bucket and wanted to escape in the opposite direction!"
Phyllostachys Pubescens successfully pulled away and wanted to use E [Meat Egg Onion Chicken] to escape in advance.
However, the moment Wine Barrel was pushed out of his stomach, Score handed over his Flash!
A golden light flashed.
Zhao Xin was knocked out, but Wine Barrel was also forced to stop!
"He wants to force Xiao Tian to hand over his Flash!"
Su Cheng could see the opponent's plan at a glance.
Wine Barrel's Flash was much more valuable than Zhao Xin's. It was almost the most important rhythm for the CHN team to open up the early game.
Phyllostachys Pubescens did not want to hand it over at first, but seeing that Zhao Xin had activated Phase Charge and was moving very quickly and that Zooey was rushing over, he had to hand it over.
He could only hand over his Flash to protect himself.
"F * ck …" Xiao Tian was a little unhappy.
If he handed over his Flash, if Score continued to counter the jungle invasion later, his life would be very difficult.
"Let's drag it out a little longer and see what happens." Lin Yan was not that anxious.
After all, they had obtained the late game lineup and had the initiative in terms of time.
Currently, although the Korean team had the advantage, it had not been converted into economic advantage.
If this dragged on, it was still acceptable.
However, Score was clearly not satisfied with this.
The match reached the six-minute mark.
He came to the bottom lane and used Corejj Bull's Head's Flash to send Jack flying twice in a row and successfully found a rhythm.
Although Liu Qingsong's Hammer Stone Lantern was very timely, it could not withstand the opponent's control skills.
Coupled with Zhao Xin's attack, Shiba Inu's HP was almost depleted when he landed.
"Flash the lantern!" Ouze shouted in the lounge. It seemed that he was already in the situation.
However, at the crucial moment, Score inserted a fake eye on the lantern!
"Kesha lit the lantern but accidentally hit the fake eye!"
Void Lady shot out a bullet and reduced the HP of the accessory eye by one bar.
"F * ck!" Shiba Inu cursed.
Even though the accessory eye was only exposed to Jack's vision for a moment.
However, it was enough for the Korean team.
"It's too simple!" Ouze sighed. He held his head with both hands and said regretfully.
A blood was born and was taken by Zhao Xin.
Sitting on the right side of Su Cheng was a group of Koreans. There was even an old lady among them.
When they saw that Score had successfully taken down a blood, they were extremely excited and kept waving the national flag in their hands.
"Mine, mine, I made a mistake." Jack scratched his Level Three Spetsnaz Helmet in distress.
In fact, he was able to light the lantern.
The moment Liu Qingsong threw down W's Soul Guiding Lantern, he clicked on it with the right mouse button.
If he did not move, even if Zhao Xin put an eye on it, it would not be able to stop him from lighting the lantern.
However, after Shiba Inu was caught, he was slightly flustered and his mouse clicked around randomly. As a result, the instruction to pick up the lantern was canceled.
When he lit the lantern again, the eye had already been put in.
"Hold on, brothers!" Liu Qingsong could not help but say.
Lin Yan was in the middle lane and was completely restricted by Faker.
Zooey's agility was fully utilized by Li Xianghe. In comparison, Crocodile, the hero, was too cumbersome in front of her.
She constantly used her movement speed buff to kite Crocodile, leaving Lin Yan with no way to advance. He could only passively take a beating.
In addition, Mongoose's Wine Barrel did not appear. The CHN team's middle lane could not find the starting point of the rhythm at all.
Moreover, after Jack died, the bottom lane was also in trouble. He could not smoothly move out to provide support.
Red Rice nodded as he watched from the lounge.
He looked at the coaching staff beside him. "How is it?
I told you that we would definitely have no problems implementing the early game plan to the extreme, right? "
"Isn't that how the advantage comes about?
As long as we play steadily and steadily, the opponent will not have a chance to fight back! "
Kkoma had to admit that Red Rice was indeed good at giving tactical advice.
Red Rice suddenly said, "How is it?
Am I awesome? "
Li Hom was stunned for a moment. He did not understand what Red Rice was thinking, but he still subconsciously agreed and praised him. "Awesome, awesome, awesome!"
"The economic advantage of both sides is less than 1K gold coins. Everyone, don't panic."
Su Cheng was still comforting the audience in the live broadcast room. "Seven minutes. This economic disadvantage is not a loss for us at all."
Even though the Korean team was trying hard to change, they could not erase their overly stable style.
This caused their attack frequency to not be high.
Especially Score.
There was a reason why he was called the Korean Factory Director. His playstyle was extremely stable. In a situation where the success rate was not high, he would not easily choose to make a move.
As the early game engine, the jungler was not fierce. This directly caused the economic snowball of the team to be a little slow.
However, the advantage was that he was very stable and would not make any mistakes.
The match quickly reached seven minutes and thirty seconds.
Lin Yan finally found a wave of opportunity. He pretended to be the last cannon soldier. The moment he used his basic attack, Faker went up to him and tried to exhaust him.
However, he had already raised his weapon and forcefully canceled his basic attack. He rushed forward with his E and used his Red Fury W to lock down his opponent. Together with his second E and AQ combo, he crippled Li Xianghe.
However, that was all.
Zooey used the Small Soldier Death Tool to eliminate a small soldier with W's [Skillful Spell Stealing Hands] mark.
She successfully picked up the healing spell that dropped and used the acceleration effect to pull away.
She turned around and used Hypnosis Bubble to hit Crocodile. Then, she used Hyperdrive to pull out a Flying Star. When she returned to her original position, she threw the Flying Star out.
The double damage was too much for Crocodile, who did not have any defensive equipment. In addition, he had been exhausted twice previously. His health was reduced to 13%.
"Both midlaners have to return to the city to replenish their supplies," Su Cheng muttered. "However, Lin Yan has a teleport in his hands. He managed to get back at them by forcefully fighting with them."
"After all, now that the cannon soldier line has been dealt with, as long as Crocodile gives up his teleport, he can quickly push into Zooey's defense tower."
Su Cheng was about to say that the solution was to let Li Xianghe use the Unsealed Secret Manual to exchange for a teleport. This way, there would not be a gap between their levels and their economy.
However, before she could say it, she saw Zhao Xin rushing to the bottom lane with his long spear.
"What is the opponent doing?"
A white shield appeared on Zhao Xin's body as he charged into the CHN jungle!
Profound Secret!
Merciful Soul Fall!
"Jin Gong's Shen has also activated his big move. The opponent is going for a 4v2!"
The Xiba players who had returned to the city stood in the spring. They formed seals with their hands and prepared to attack the bottom lane.
It was currently 7 minutes and 47 seconds.
"Where are our teammates?
Save them! "
Jack sent out a distress signal.
"Coming!" Lin Yan replied. At the same time, he ordered his teammates, "Yan Junze, you come too!"
Currently, the opponent seemed to only have four players. However, he knew that Li Xianghe's Zooey would very likely use the Unsealed Secret Manual to exchange for a TP.
If Faker really did that, they would be facing a 5v2.
Jack and Liu Qingsong would definitely not be able to survive such a crazy attack. Moreover, if the Korean team pushed forward, they would only need two waves of short attacks to flatten the bottom lane's tower.
If they were to flatten a blood tower so early, 02 Shiba Inu would not be able to find a place to develop.
Kesha was the team's late-game pillar. If she did not develop well, it would very likely affect the team's damage output in the mid-late game.
Therefore, they had to save her.
As Jin Gong had just returned to the city, he had a certain advantage in dealing with the minions in the top lane. He could definitely teleport down now.
"The CHN representative team has to hand over the two teleports!" Su Cheng's tone was hurried. She believed that the first team battle of this round was about to begin.
"The players from both teams have landed on the bottom lane. Zhao Xin wants to attack … Eh?"
Su Cheng's tone was suspicious.
After Crocodile and Aoun teleported to the bottom lane, Zhao Xin and Shen suddenly turned around and left!
They had given up on the ambush and quickly disappeared from the CHN team's field of vision!
"What is the Korean team doing?"
Aftershock, who was sitting on Su Cheng's left, was also very puzzled.
Under everyone's gaze, Shen suddenly handed over the teleport!
The TP's landing point was actually the eye of the accessory that Li Xianghe had placed on the river!
"Zooey changed her teleport and also teleported there …" Su Cheng suddenly realized. "They want to change their target to the vanguard in the canyon!"
"This is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain!" Beside her, the commentator Yu Tong blurted out.
"The Korean team has pretended to have a 4 pack of 2 to lure us out of the top and middle lane. Then, they will immediately turn to the top lane and try to take down the vanguard first!"
Currently, the five members of CHN were all in the bottom lane, while the vanguard would spawn in 7 seconds.
Even heroes would need 20 seconds to rush up from the bottom lane. There was simply no time.
"The vanguard is in our hands!"
In the SBS television station, Roaring Emperor's excited voice was transmitted to every corner of the country. "The Republic of Korea has obtained the most important neutral resource in the early game!"
The domestic audience, who had originally thought that their team's disadvantage in the early game, immediately felt their hearts rise.
The vanguard in the early game meant more than just a single collision.
Many teams would use it to coordinate with tower kills in order to obtain more benefits.
The CHN representative team could only use the time it took for the Korean team to head to the top lane to swap out the first Earth Dragon.
Comparing the two, this resource exchange was definitely a loss.
"Don't go, let's go straight to the bottom lane!"
Lin Yan also wanted to stop his losses. After he accompanied his teammates to take down the Earth Dragon, he also wanted to give up on a wave of minions in the middle lane and forcefully surround the bottom lane to kill Chi Di and Corejj.
However, the advantage of being an Ice Assistant came into play.
E [Eagle Soars the Sky] illuminated the crocodile's figure that was heading towards the bottom lane!
"The Korean team is retreating at top speed in the bottom lane and giving up their tower!"
Lin Yan couldn't do anything about this. He could only try his best to let Jack and Liu Qingsong deplete the health of the opposing tower. At the same time, he could also prevent the enemy duo from taking down the minions.
However, this advantage was simply a drop in the bucket.
In order to protect the tower in the middle lane from being destroyed by the enemy, he hurriedly walked back and quickly cleared out the minions.
In the backstage lounge, the Korean team's coaches clapped their hands in celebration. The cheers in the room lasted for a long time!
"Beautifully done, Red Rice!" Edgar patted the shoulder of his proud disciple.
As he and Kkoma were both classic Korean coaches, they were more proficient in mid-game operations and team battle formations.
In terms of early game design, they couldn't catch up to Red Rice, who had worked in the LPL for nearly four years.
They also knew that there were specializations in the field, so they completely handed over the early game tactical arrangements to this outstanding coach who had rushed back from China.
This time, using Shen's big move, pretending to be a four to two, and then going to the top half to take down the canyon vanguard was Red Rice's masterpiece.
Red Rice heard his senior's praise and smiled rather proudly.
However, he wasn't so proud that he lost his mind.
"We still need a canyon vanguard to help the team gain a bigger advantage."
If a historically strong early game offensive team like YM obtained a vanguard after obtaining the early game lineup, then they would have won half the match. They could even quickly turn it into a victory.
However, the Korean team wasn't that good.
Their score was still too stable, and the overall tempo was still too slow.
This required them to obtain a second vanguard.
However, Red Rice wasn't too worried.
As long as they used this vanguard well, they could help take down the first defensive tower.
On the other hand, the Korean team's lineup was already strong in the early game. With a certain economic gap, the CHN team would definitely have a low chance of winning the second vanguard fourteen and a half minutes later.
Score wasn't in a hurry to summon the vanguard and push forward.
Instead, he was waiting for the cooldown of Ruler Emperor's Eagle Soars the Sky to end.
The Summoner's Canyon passed a peaceful ninety seconds.
The match went on for ten minutes, and Ice's skill finally finished. She, who was dressed up as part of the Source Plan, shot out a drone that flew all the way up the jungle!
Ruler Emperor's control of the Ice was also quite strong. The drone lit up the fog of war for the CHN team as much as possible.
Finally, it caught the movement of Mongoose's Wine Barrel near the Beak Bird's camp!
"Score, hurry up and go to the bottom half to release the vanguard!"
The bottom lane was the furthest from the Wine Barrel. Mongoose would need a lot of time to get there.
Score stood behind the wall and successfully summoned the canyon vanguard from the void. Then, he raised his spear and directly jumped over the tower.
He knew that there were two solo lanes on CHN, and neither of them were teleported.
This meant that no one could protect this duo on the bottom lane.
"Ice has targeted Liu Qingsong's Hammer Stone from afar!"
Torn Wounds had no choice but to use his Flash.
However, Zhao Xin immediately activated his E [Fearless Charge] and rushed forward.
"W Wind Slash's Electric Spike's effect has slowed down Hammer Stone!"
Although Liu Qingsong used his R [Netherworld Prison] to hold Zhao Xin back, the distance between him and Bull's Head was gradually closing.
"Corejj is controlling Bull's Head's WQ to lift Hammer Stone. Ruler Emperor's Ice is taking the opportunity to continuously attack from behind!"
Liu Qingsong used the Misfortune Pendulum to push the enemy away and threw out his hook. He wanted to control Zhao Xin under the tower before he died. He wanted to coordinate with the tower's cannon to finish him off.
However, Score reacted quickly. The moment Liu Qingsong threw out his hook, he successfully flashed behind Hammer Stone, which was in front of Kesha. He took the opportunity to force Kesha to use her Flash.
"Hammer Stone's Head has been taken by the Ice Archer!"
Jack was the only one left. He did not dare to defend the tower and could only give up.
"Sky and Lin Yan have not been idle during this period. They have chosen to target Faker!"
Just as Score had predicted, the two solo lanes on CHN's team did not teleport.
However, the same was true for the Korean team.
The jungler and duo were all destroying the tower at the bottom lane. Jin Gong's Shen did not have any big moves at the moment.
Therefore, Lin Yan and Xiao Tian decided to give Li Xianghe a set meal.
"Crocodile activated his big move to gain Rage. Two E's and a Flash. He crossed more than a thousand yards and arrived in front of Zooey. W [Grim Hunt] stunned Zooey!"
Li Xianghe immediately used [Purify] and [Flash]. However, Xiao Tian had already rushed over from the side.
"He activated [Predator's Wine Barrel] and used [Flash] on Zooey. The next moment, he used his big move to blast Zooey back!"
The two of them used brute force to kill Squishy Zooey, allowing Lin Ran to obtain a kill.
However, there was news that the bottom lane's tower had been destroyed by the vanguard.
"This won't do. If this continues, our mid lane Snowball will roll to death!" Jack felt that he was at a disadvantage.
"I know." Lin Yan was very calm. He had seen through the Korean team's rhythm and knew that the enemy's target was the vanguard at the second canyon.
He would definitely not let the enemy succeed.
"Let's switch lanes. Jack and Tear, you two go to the middle lane. I'll go up. Junze, you go to the bottom lane."
Lin Yan gave the command.
Jack helped to block a wave of minions for Letme. He returned to the city in the grass in front of the second tower at the bottom lane.
As he had died once, he had lost a lot of minions and his development was not good.
In this round, he wanted to be an AP Kesha and add some magic damage to the team.
However, an AP Kesha's requirements for equipment were more stringent than an AD Kesha's. Currently, he was still some distance away from the Sheep Blade.
Going to the middle lane would allow him to avoid being quickly snowballed by the Korean team's duo. After all, the middle lane was shorter and it was easier for him to stay alive and develop.
"Lin Yan returned to the city and used [Black Cut]. Now, it seems that he has a lot of combat power. No one in the Korean team is his match …"
After Crocodile's Q [Tyrant's Fury] had leveled up, he was now clearing minions with a normal attack. He would attack three melee minions in a row. He would then attack the minions with his Q and attack again.
The whole process was very fast.
Li Xianghe could not suppress him. He could only use [Flying Star] to clear the minions as quickly as possible and follow Crocodile to the river to prevent Crocodile from pressuring his teammates.
"Crocodile has removed one of Faker's True Eyes … Li Xianghe's backpack does not have an eye slot now."
The river was dark but Score quickly came over to pressure Lin Yan. In addition, Ice used his E [Eagle Strikes the Sky] to light up the top half of the map. This gave Lin Yan and Xiao Tian no chance to make a move.
Jin Gong was having a good time in the bottom lane.
Now, his role in the game was much greater than Letterman's.
As long as he could delay for a while, his giant Hydra could be created. When that time came, he would not be too afraid of Aoun.
"Crocodile and Zooey are fighting again in the top lane!"
Mongoose's True Eye in the opponent's bottom lane saw that Score had gone to the red zone to take his third red buff. Lin Yan made a move decisively.
He crouched in the bushes at the edge of the top lane and stuck his E to Zooey's face. He used his normal attack to stack his aggro to red and used [Grim Hunt] to bite his opponent!
In an instant, four stacks of Black Ripper were stacked and the stack of Conqueror was gradually increasing.
This made the brittle Zooey a little unbearable.
"Li Xianghe threw a Hypnosis Bubble and then walked backward to leave!"
Lin Yan used a normal attack followed by a Q to reduce Zooey's HP to less than 40%.
He himself fell into a state of Deep Sleep.
As usual, Li Xianghe used a full Flying Star and blew up Crocodile, who did not have much HP to begin with.
"The HP of both midlaners has been reduced again." Su Cheng's eyes were fixed on the screen. "They have to return to the city to replenish their supplies again!"
Lin Yan took advantage of the big move he had used to kill Zooey in the middle lane. His actions were more aggressive and he even stayed back to clear a wave of short laners.
Li Xianghe directly channeled a return to the city in the top tower.
At this time, the director suddenly changed the perspective and moved the camera to the Korean team.
The residual vision provided by the small soldier's corpse gradually disappeared.
The moment the KOR team completely lost Crocodile's vision, Lin Yan canceled his return to the city!
"They're going to cause trouble!" Su Cheng's heart, which had been suppressed for nearly 14 minutes since the start of the match, was finally stirred up.
Lin Yan followed the river and invaded the Korean team's jungle. Then, he successfully made his way into the bushes beside the opponent's blue buff.
"Xiao Tian has also entered the Korean team's top half … … The opponent's vision is greatly affected!"
The main reason was because Li Xianghe could not gain much of an advantage against Lin Yan, who was the first to disguise as a Black Ripper. His own accessory eyes and True Eyes were not enough, and it was difficult to insert them to provide effective vision.
On the other hand, Corejj's Bull's Head had placed his eyes along the middle lane. The furthest he could reach was the bushes above the river.
As a result, the Korean team did not discover the movements of the CHN team's middle lane.
"Zhao Xin has finished eating the red buff and is moving up. He's getting closer and closer to the blue zone's camp!"
Score believed that the opponent's strongest player, Crocodile, had returned to the city with low HP.
Therefore, he wanted to seize the opportunity to gain vision and prepare to welcome the vanguard that would descend in half a minute.
However, he did not know that Lin Yan and Xiao Tian were actually waiting for him not far away!
"Don't walk into the bushes!"
Seeing that Zhao Xin was about to step into the trap, Red Rice in the backstage lounge was extremely anxious.
The Korean audience in the stadium was also in a state of chaos. They were very worried about the predicament that Score was about to face!
"Crocodile has already activated his big move. While raising his HP, he is also accumulating rage!"
Zhao Xin, who was completely unprepared, passed by. Lin Yan walked out and directly bit his opponent with a Red Rage W!
"Beer Man also drank W [Drunken Berserk] and charged forward with his belly!
The two of them want to insta-kill Zhao Xin before he can react! "
Su Cheng was unable to contain her excitement.
"If they can kill the opponent's jungler, the Korean team will not have any qualifications to fight for this canyon vanguard!"
However, at the crucial moment, a thick white shield suddenly appeared above Zhao Xin's HP bar!
The Korean audience in the audience screamed excitedly as if they had been saved from death's door.
It was Shen's big move!
"Do you want me to interrupt him?" Letme asked in the team voice chat.
As Lin Yan and Mongoose's ambush was unexpected, Jin Gong did not have time to adjust the position of his big move. He immediately used his R skill in front of Yan Junze.
With Q's [Volcanic Precipice], it was easy for Aoun to interrupt his opponent.
"No need. Just TP him and we'll team up!"
Lin Yan reacted quickly and directly replied, "Xiao Tian, let's continue to kill him. This Zhao Xin is f * cking a * s!"
Crocodile and Wine Barrel were connected and controlled for a long time.
When Chrysanthemum Shin was free to use his big move [New Moon Guard], his HP had already dropped to the bottom.
Zhao Xin, who only had a jungler's knife and Ninja Boots, was definitely not a tank. Xiao Tian's set of skills could reduce his HP by a lot, not to mention the prehistoric crocodile with Black Cutter.
Lin Yan used his E skill and was not in a hurry to make a move.
"Wait for Shen to land!" He shouted. "We'll kill him together. Zooey won't be able to make it!"
He calculated the time it would take for Li Xianghe to arrive on foot after returning to the city. Without Homeguard, Zooey would need at least 10 seconds to reach the battlefield. Even if she used the secret book to exchange for Sprint, she would still need 7 seconds.
This period of time was enough for them to kill and steal.
When Jin Gong saw this scene, his heart fell into an ice cave.
Now that Zhao Xin's HP was extremely low, even if he went down, he would not be able to gain an advantage. After Chrysanthemum Shin died, he would be fighting against two alone.
However, he could not cancel his big move.
All his skills were hidden. If Zhao Xin did not die and Aoun did not interrupt him, Jin Gong could only watch as he fell to the ground!
"Without Flash, Zhao Xin would not be able to survive. The moment Shen landed and used Taunt, Crocodile's normal attack followed by Q killed him!"
Su Cheng spoke faster and faster.
"Jin Gong is also looking for death if he lands!"
The West 8 players felt that they did not have much pressure against Letme. After killing Tiamat, the first thing they did was to go straight for Ju Jiu.
However, this equipment did not provide much HP. Furthermore, it did not have any resistance, so Tanky could not withstand it at all.
"Wine Barrel, use Slow Barrel. They want to keep Shen here!"
At this moment, a Magic Crystal Arrow with an extremely cold aura was shot from afar.
It was Ice's R skill!
However, this big move gave the players enough time to react. Xiao Tian took the opportunity to move downwards. Lin Yan also used his second E [Direct Collision] and easily avoided the Magic Crystal Arrow.
"Aoun has landed. The Korean duo is still rushing over here. However, Wine Barrel has used his big move!"
Exploding Wine Barrel and rolling hops attacked.
This big move was mainly used to force the opponents to retreat.
"Bull's Head did not dodge. He used his 5-Speed Shoes to continue moving forward. He wanted to use Wine Barrel's big move to blow himself up to his teammate Shen!"
His plan succeeded.
After landing, WQ2's combo immediately lifted Crocodile and Wine Barrel up!
They successfully saved Jin Gong who was in danger.
However, Corejj had overlooked one point.
After being sent flying by Wine Barrel's big move, his body was covered in a layer of plasma.
"Kesha activated R [Hunter's Instinct] and flew over from the river!"
Jack's first target was Ruler who was alone.
Although his equipment was not as good as Ruler, Ice Marksman did not have a big move. Moreover, his Q [Marksman's Focus] was still at Level 0.
This was the weakest moment in Eich.
Jack did not hesitate to seize this opportunity. He was the sharpest spear in the offense. Now, he was going to stab the enemy's heart!
As Kesha flew over, she also activated W [Void Search].
RW's combo hit the opponent first. Then, all of Akashic's Rainstorm fell on Ice!
Ruler's health was instantly reduced by a large amount!
"Look at me!" Ruler was still calling for his teammates in the team voice chat.
However, it was too late.
Bull's Head had already used all of his skills. Shen's Taunt had already been used when the big move landed.
At the moment, no one could protect this Ice.
Not only that, Letme's Aoun was also staring at him from afar.
A sheep's cry echoed through Summoner's Canyon!
The magma elemental passed through Ice's body and caused a slow effect!
"Faker activated Sprint and rushed over. However, the outcome of this battle has already been decided!"
Crocodile, who was fully covered in Conqueror, roamed freely on the battlefield.
Although Bull's Head had saved Shen, these two players were not a threat to him.
On the other side, Ice Marksman used Flash to dodge Aoun's second big move. However, Jack's E [Extreme Overload] chased after him.
"Cleanse dispelled the slow effect from the arrows and killed Ruler with two normal attacks!"
There was no other way. Kesha's 1v1 ability was definitely in the top tier among the ADCs. Her big move, Shield, and high single target damage were not a match for Ruler, who was not prepared beforehand.
Zhao Xin and Ice, who were extremely strong, died one after the other. However, Li Xianghe did not intend to give up.
He wanted to seize the opportunity to lower the health of the CHN jungler so that the opponent would not dare to attack the vanguard.
However, this plan obviously failed.
"Crocodile took a small step forward and ate the Hypnotic Bubble for Wine Barrel!"
Lin Yan's reaction was very fast. Ever since he was suppressed by Li Xianghe during the laning phase, he displayed absolute focus.
Even though the bubble had come from the blind, Lin Ran was still one step ahead of it and ate the bubble.
This was because he had teleportation. Even if he was beaten to a sliver of health or died, he could still quickly rush to the vanguard from the spring.
However, if Phyllostachys Pubescens's jungler, Wine Barrel, lost his life, it would be troublesome.
Lin Yan, who ate the bubble, had his health drop to a critical level.
Taking advantage of the 1.5 seconds before he fell into the Hypnotic state, Lin Yan bit down on Bull's Head with his W and added another normal attack.
Although Corejj used his big move [Firm Will] to dispel the stun, his health was still reduced by a lot.
"Lantern, lantern!" At the same time, Lin Yan was still asking for help.
"Look at your feet!" Liu Qingsong used simple words to express his meaning.
Hammer Stone did not have any means of displacement, so he could only walk over obediently.
At this moment, he was late.
"Throw the Soul Guiding Lamp at the crocodile's feet. Lin Yan quickly retreated!"
The moment before he fell into the Hypnotic state, Lin Yan returned to Hammer Stone's side and regained his safety.
"Lin Yan handled this perfectly!"
"Hammer Stone's Hook forced out Bull's Head's Blink … but Wine Barrel's Meat Egg Onion Chicken has recovered!"
After knocking Bull's Head into a Dizzy state, Hammer Stone's Pendulum of Misfortune pulled him back. Together with Kesha, who had rushed over, they successfully killed him!
"Nice!" Lin Yan roared, venting the anger he had suppressed in the first half of the match.
Li Xianghe had used Zooey's strength to suppress him, so he would use his strategy to fight back in the middle of the match!
"KOR only has Shen and Zooey left. Aoun's E crashed into them and forced Shen's Blink … CHN's representative team has achieved a complete victory!"
Su Cheng's beautiful face was flushed red. The surrounding audience was already boiling like hot water. She could only raise her voice to let the netizens in the broadcast room hear her.
"The Canyon Vanguard has spawned. CHN has turned around and accepted the Vanguard. Now that they have closed the gap in economy, they still have a chance to summon the Vanguard!"
"They're going to make a comeback!"
[666, they can even fight back like this?]
[Brother Ran's fake return to the city is really disgusting. Hahahaha]
[The Korean team has been seriously operating for half a day, but in the end, they are back to square one!]
[I think the Korean team is just like the Calabash Brothers trying to save their grandpa. They can't really be thinking that they can beat us in a team battle, right?]
[I'm afraid they've lost their minds. Hahaha!]
The roaring emperor in SBS could not hide the disappointment in his heart.
"They really shouldn't have accepted this team battle. Even if they lost the Vanguard, it would have been acceptable to sell out Score."
"But with Eich and Bull's Head dead, Kesha has fattened up …"
Backstage, Red Mi held her head in her hands and looked at the screen in disbelief.
The atmosphere in the waiting room, which had been buzzing with excitement, instantly cooled down.
He knew what it meant to lose this Vanguard.
The Korean team did not have much time left.
