Chapter 178-Fixed-point sniping, encirclement and suppression of TheShy
For a full ten minutes in the first half, Summoner's Rift was calm.
The Dragon King only did three things: pushing the line, roaming, and returning to the city to equip.
With the passive E skill, even if the Dragon King does not teleport and returns to the city frequently, he can still ensure that his development online does not fall behind.
It is a bit similar to last year's top lane strategy where the Home Guardian Centaur used E to speed up the lane when returning to the city, and then used QW to fully activate the lane when the opponent met.
It’s just that the middle route is shorter, and the Dragon King’s return speed is also faster.
After making three-speed shoes, Dragon King's roaming ability is definitely the best in the league.
In ten minutes, the Dragon King had already made the corrosive potion, three-speed shoes, dark seal, and catalytic stone.
This kind of equipment is not strong enough in confrontation, but it has strong laning and roaming abilities.
The Catalytic Stone cannot be synthesized into the Time Staff, and its properties are only slightly stronger than the 400-yuan ruby.
The process seemed boring, but the audience watched it with great interest.
Because the pace is too tight!
Whenever the Dragon King brings the Lee Sin close to the side lane or the jungle, LGD will respond quickly.
It's like a duel between two masters. Once one of them makes a mistake, he or she is likely to be hit in a vital spot.
As soon as Ashe's E skill is ready, Jack will throw it to the opposite jungle area.
Wherever the Ice Eagle passes, there is vision, so there is a high probability that it can see the movements of the enemy jungler.
Even if you don't find it, you can roughly judge the position of the opponent's jungler based on the refresh of wild monsters.
Of course, this does not apply to Eimy.
His thought process has always been different from that of ordinary people.
The suppression of vision is also one of the reasons why Ice Tam is not easy to collapse in the lane.
Many professional players can guess the jungler's position based on the rhythm and line of troops.'
This is the reason why so-called perspective cheats appear many times in professional competitions.
However, no matter how good the awareness of professional players is, they are often caught and killed, and this is the reason why they are ganked against the rhythm.
We have talked about counter-rhythm ganking many times, so what is counter-rhythm?
For example, the best rhythm is to finish clearing the jungle and then go to gank people, otherwise you will be counter-jungled.
You know this truth, and the other party knows it too.
But if you don't want to brush, I'm going to fuck you.
For example, even though I know there is a view here, I still want to do it.
You say I'm at a disadvantage by doing this, but it doesn't matter, I'll continue to fuck you.
This kind of reckless rhythm is the opposite rhythm.
Ganking against the rhythm in a casual game will ruin yourself, but in a professional game with the cooperation of teammates, it is not a big problem.
The strategic significance of Ashe's E skill is fully demonstrated at this time.
In the early stage, Eagle Strike, which occurs every 90 seconds, can provide the team with a lot of map information, greatly increasing the difficulty of going against the rhythm.
Analyzing map information should be the job of an auxiliary.
But Yuan Shen, who didn't have to operate on his own, took the initiative to take on this responsibility.
Record the enemy summoner's skills, eye position time, and wild monster refresh conditions.
Without a good brain, it is impossible to play jungle well.
Eimy's Graves was seen again.
Seeing his vision exposed, Eimy didn't care because this was the fifth time he was seen.
But he had not thought of one difference.
This time, Han Bing has a big move!
"here."
Yuan Shen made his own judgment.
The two people sent the signal at almost the same location.
And the route that Graves takes to clear the jungle is also very transparent.
Soon, he will go to the blue buff.
Unless Xie Dan really has a bump on his head, this ultimate move is bound to hit!
Jack also understood well. He retreated away from the opponent's field of vision, and then walked back immediately.
The time was too short and LGD's bottom lane didn't even notice it.
Magic Crystal Arrow is different from the global support skills of Draven, EZ, and Jinx. It is a proactive control skill for team fights, not a damage-dealing skill.
If you win, you make a lot of money; if you lose, you don’t lose either.
When the opponent on the line has flash and displacement, Ashe's ultimate skill doesn't have much significance on the line.
result……
Really hit!
With a bang, when the Ice Ultimate skill hits, it will provide a brief vision.
IG's mid and jungle took action immediately.
Yuan Shen had already leaned over.
Rookie presses E to fly.
If the distance is far enough, the control time of Frost's ultimate skill will be very long.
For a full 3.5 seconds, Graves could only watch as Lee Sin's ward came to his face, and Soundwave's second stage Q followed by E slowed himself down.
The Dragon King is coming!
Wei Shen's signals had already been ringing loudly. After getting rid of the control, Xie Dan immediately used the E skill and reversed the R skill to escape.
But the Dragon King’s ability to retain people is still very strong.
The ultimate skill, Star String, can hit the target at the maximum distance. A level 60 ultimate skill can slow the target by %.
And it lasted for four seconds!!
The Wind Rider was triggered instantly, and the Q skill was thrown out to stun the Graves. Combined with the damage of the Lee Sin, the Graves was stunned into a puff.
The cooperation of heroes scattered in three different places on the map and this incredible way of getting first blood made the audience exclaim in surprise.
no way.
This style of play is really outrageous.
The audience and players from other regions who were watching the LPL semi-finals were also sighing.
Many LCK teams are itching to try.
The combination of Lee Sin and Dragon King can be played like this, what about Card and Nightmare? What about Excavator?
Another Gangplank or Shen in the top lane?
Isn’t this global flow?
As long as Frost's ultimate skill can hit the target, a team fight can start instantly, five against two or even five against one!
In addition to these heroes, Tam in the bottom lane can also lead others along.
There is also a teleport in the order...
When everyone realized the situation, they were stunned.
"The support rotation ability of this lineup is too strong. I feel like IG hasn't shown its full potential yet."
The doll was a little surprised.
In fact, LGD's early operations were quite good.
For a hero who is suitable for the global flow, there is a skill that is must-have.
That is the long-range support skill.
After this type of hero is formed, its combat effectiveness is often weaker than other heroes.
For example, Pantheon, Card, Nightmare, Digger, Tam, Dragon King, and Shen.
LGD was planning to drag the game out and wait until their lineup was at its strongest before engaging in a fight.
However, they did not expect this kind of first blood burst.
In fact, IG just wanted to give it a try, but since it was successful, they would naturally maximize the benefits of this first blood.
Is first blood important?
It’s not a big problem when playing in the Ranking of Passers-by, because the frequency of kills is high and the first blood will only add a hundred dollars.
But in professional games, especially those with few kills, first blood is crucial.
At this time, other sources of income become particularly critical. A soldier or a wild monster is valued very much, not to mention the crucial kill.
The economy based on one person is just the most basic income.
What professional teams are best at is maximizing the benefits of this kill.
The stronger the team, the more likely it is to find such opportunities.
The opposing jungler was killed and we were at a numerical disadvantage.
During this period of time, things can snowball.
Graves died in the lower zone, so after killing him, Dragon King and Lee Sin went straight down.
LGD's bottom lane duo could only retreat to the isolated bushes of the second tower, watching the other side destroy the tower and eat soldiers. The bottom lane first tower was quickly pushed down.
If the jungler is still alive and there are three people defending under the tower, it will be impossible for IG to break it down.
Once the bottom lane tower was destroyed, the duo was immediately freed.
The auxiliary protected the AD and roamed after pushing the line. Although the range was not large, it was enough to put a lot of pressure on other LGD players.
Clockwork and Titan are becoming more stable, and Dragon King and Ekko are also more comfortable.
The lower half is unplayable.
The commentators and the audience were aware of this.
Xiao Ming's support speed is much faster than Hirano Aya's.
Moreover, the lower half of the area is now entirely under IG's vision. Graves doesn't dare to come at all, and the duo doesn't dare to push the line across the river.
Otherwise it is easy to get caught.
Even Wei Shen can only move and have vision upwards.
The little dragon was taken, and the vanguard wanted it too.
Xiao Ming has been liberated and is ready to provide support at any time.
The chain reaction caused by kills is more terrifying when the competition is between top teams.
This kind of situation often occurs during the game. Even though the opponent only has two or three kills, there is no solution and it cannot be handled.
The reason is here.
Two or three kills means about a thousand gold in a Rank game, but in a competition, there are so many things that can be done during this period of time, and the impact is far-reaching.
After taking down the vanguard and moving to top, Titan didn’t dare to defend the tower alone.
After the top lane tower was destroyed, IG's next target was naturally the most strategically important middle lane tower.
Ashe and Tam moved to the middle lane.
Ekko continued to push the team in the top lane, while Dragon King wandered around the bottom lane.
"Defend the middle tower firmly. We won't be able to play if this tower is lost. Try to give resources to Awei and let him develop." Hirano Aya commanded.
The LGD team cannot select more than three C positions.
There will be three at most, and two people will have to be sacrificed.
The hero Clockwork is able to create miracles.
Especially when the two C positions on the opposite side are heroes without displacement, the probability of miracles happening will increase significantly.
Once Clockwork's ultimate pulls in three or four people in a team fight, there is always hope of a comeback even if you are ten thousand economically behind.
Of course, in the early stage, Clockwork’s development must not collapse, otherwise the ultimate move will have no damage and will just tickle the opponent.
The early rhythm of this game was completely controlled by IG's mid and jungle, and LGD could only hope for the late game.
Aya Hirano followed Wei Shen to defend the tower in the middle lane, while Imp was alone at the second tower to farm soldiers.
Clockwork's two Qs and one W are enough to basically clear a wave of soldiers. He has a strong ability to defend towers, and IG didn't have any better solution for a while.
However, LGD still overlooked one thing.
In other words, they didn't expect how strong IG's lineup's ability to switch lanes and attack is!
Jhin showed up in the top lane to clear minions, but he was a little far away from the second tower, and IG immediately took action.
Ekko teleported to the ward left in the jungle, and Tam's ultimate brought ice to block Jhin's retreat.
Dragon King used E to fly towards the middle lane, and Lee Sin also moved towards the middle lane.
In the top lane, Imp was surrounded by three people in an instant and could only kill a few more soldiers before he died. He didn't even want to use flash.
As soon as Jhin died, the five IG players immediately grouped together and pushed mid.
This team fight is simply impossible to handle.
There is a prerequisite for clearing the line, and that is to touch the line of soldiers.
Lee Sin and Ekko were blocking the front of the minion line. If Clockwork dared to go up and clear the minions, the two of them would just jump over the tower and hit them in the face.
Clockwork, who has no displacement, is also helpless when facing Ekko and Lee Sin.
LGD's middle lane tower was destroyed and the economic advantage was rolled to six thousand.
This time, LGD was really in a state of collapse.
It’s easy to guess what IG will do next.
With all three outer towers gone, LGD found it difficult to gain vision and their development space was bound to be compressed. The opponent took advantage of the situation to invade the jungle, build up an economic advantage, and then let Ekko go to the bottom lane alone, while the others were ready to drive the Baron at any time and play the four-one split push that they are best at.
Chronic death.
"No, let's fight."
Wei Shen looked aggrieved.
Such a stable style of play is not suitable for LGD, but there is no way, the opponent's BP advantage is too great.
What’s more, IG is even more reckless than them and they also like to fight.
When LGD plays against other teams, it can gain an advantage by fighting hard.
Fighting IG is like a gangster encountering the regular army, there is no winning.
IG's lineup's ability to switch lanes and provide support is so strong that if they dare to fight in the side lanes, they will be killed.
For top teams, BP determines 70% of the outcome.
Other members of LGD also agreed.
Rather than dying slowly, it is better to fight to the death. This is the spirit of LGD.
If you can’t defeat them head-on, you can only capture them alone.
Tam kept following Frost because the Dragon King ran too fast.
After all the calculations, only Lee Sin and Ekko can serve as breakthrough points.
"Let's catch Ike. Yuanshen is a bit strange and hard to catch."
Hirano Aya made a decision.
After a brief discussion, LGD began to set up a plan for this wave of capture.
Everyone bought true eyes and set up vision control in the lower half of the jungle, trying to ensure that the opponent had no vision of the lower jungle area.
very smooth.
Because IG's vision control focus has shifted to the vicinity of the big dragon.
However, the LGD players have not had a chance to take action yet.
If they just go for it like this, the opponent can go straight for the Baron, and they will still be at a loss.
You have to wait for an opportunity, and this opportunity will come soon.
"The Dragon King is back in the city." Wei Shen shouted.
A fake eye on the top lane captured the movement of the Dragon King returning to the city.
Without the output of the Dragon King, even if Ashe, Tahm Kench and Lee Sin started to fight the Baron, they would move very slowly, which was enough for them to kill Ekko and then rush to the Baron pit.
"Go, go, go! Good opportunity!"
"Everyone, please be more alert."
Hirano Aya said excitedly.
The efficient execution of professional teams is simply incomparable to that of casual games.
The LGD players rushed to the bottom lane. TheShy had a strong desire to output damage and often exchanged blood with Titan.
However, at this moment, Yuan Shen's voice rang out.
"Old Song, fly down, full speed. Chengluo, be careful, the other side may have you covered."
Controlling Lee Sin to remove a true ward, Yuan Shen instinctively sensed something was wrong.
At this time, it makes no sense to use resources like true eyes to control the lower area.
Combining the positions of his teammates, Yuan Shen quickly determined the opponent's true intentions.
Catch it!
It should be that Rookie was discovered by LGD's vision when he returned to the city.
The context of the matter became clear, and Yuan Shen gave instructions quickly.
TheShy instinctively took two steps back, but was still surrounded by LGD.
Clockwork and Thresh took the lead. Clockwork's W acceleration and Thresh's five-speed shoes made both of them move very fast.
As the lantern was pulled, the male gun was also taken over.
And Jhin directly activated his ultimate skill from a distance.
Perfect ending!
