Chapter 403 Taking Advantage! Griffin's Weakness in Midfield!
Before the match, EDG specifically studied Griffin's game path. At that time, the coaching staff concluded that Griffin's lane and jungle coordination was not good.

To be precise, the coordination between Nakano and Jungkook was not done well.

Chaowei seems particularly obsessed with lane dominance and rarely takes the initiative to support the jungle.

This makes it easy for Tazan to become isolated and helpless in the jungle, and Tazan is the kind of jungler who is very 'conventional'.

This "mediocre" is not a derogatory term, but rather refers to the fact that if he doesn't receive support from his lane and his jungle is invaded, his brain is easily overheated and short-circuited.

"Xiao Tian, ​​why don't you play around with the enemy team in the early game? Just farm the jungle like this."

Wang Yao sent a series of signals to his own blue buff. Xiao Tian immediately understood and nodded, saying, "Okay, then remember to come and support us when the time comes."

After setting up the opening tactics, Wang Yao returned to his online position.

As the minion waves converged in the mid lane, both sides began their strategic maneuvering and intrigue!
Syndra is a good counter to LeBlanc; that's a widely acknowledged fact.

There are two reasons.

LeBlanc is most afraid of champions with strong wave clear, because LeBlanc can't push the wave at all before she gets her items.

As an assassin hero, if all skills are used to last-hit minions, then the ability to deal damage is basically lost. You can't rely on basic attacks to deal damage and fight with people.

However, Syndra has extremely strong wave clear ability.

It all comes down to the Q skill, with its super short cooldown and extremely low mana cost!
The second is Syndra's E.

Despite the variations in LeBlanc's combos, they all boil down to three basic moves once she has her ultimate.

If you're aiming for maximum single-target burst damage, use your ultimate to copy Q; if you're aiming for AOE damage, use your ultimate to copy W; and if you want to extend the control time and kite your opponent, use your ultimate to copy E.

These are all late-game gameplay elements.

However, in the early game, LeBlanc should prioritize W, firstly to facilitate wave clear, and secondly to make herself more mobile. Therefore, W is LeBlanc's core damage skill in the early game.

However, Syndra's E skill "Scatter the Weak" can easily interrupt LeBlanc's W.

If LeBlanc's W doesn't deal damage in the early game, she basically has no chance of getting a solo kill, and she might not even be able to trade blows with him.

Syndra can completely control LeBlanc by relying on these two points.

Wang Yao immediately tried to use his Q skill to harass the enemy, but LeBlanc dodged it with a nimble movement.

"Chaowei's positioning is pretty good."

Wang Yao smiled. After a simple attempt, he stopped trying to lower the enemy's health bar and started frequently switching screens to check the location of his jungler.

The director also focused the camera on the junglers of both sides.

"In this game, Xiaotian chose to farm from top to bottom. Is he planning to quickly reach level 3 and then go to the bottom lane to cooperate with Alistar?"

Miller made a bold guess.

The synergy between the jungler Alistar and support Taliyah left a very deep impression.

"But is this really a good idea? Zhao Xin also farms from top to bottom, so he's easily counter-ganked, right?" Wawa offered a different perspective.

"It's different. Zhao Xin's jungle clearing efficiency is nowhere near as high as Taliyah's. EDG can definitely exploit a time difference," Miller pointed out the most crucial element.

He saw this, but he didn't realize EDG's true intentions!

As Taliyah continued to farm down the map, she reached level 3 after taking both buffs. Instead of letting the bottom laner go, Taliyah headed straight for the bottom river!

EDG's real intention was to target Tazan's Xin Zhao.

The advantage lies in Taliyah's faster jungle clearing speed compared to Xin Zhao. Furthermore, Taliyah's passive ability grants her superior map mobility within the jungle. While both can reach level 3 after clearing four jungle camps, Taliyah does so slightly faster. This means Taliyah can get up and position herself earlier, allowing her to ambush Xin Zhao more effectively.

Tazan didn't seem to realize the danger. After all, Griffin didn't invade at the start and had no idea about Taliyah's jungle clearing. It's normal that he didn't know.

He reminded his top laner Sword, following the normal jungle clearing strategy for Taliyah.

"Bro, Taliyah farms faster than me and traverses the map faster too. You'd better go to the river and place a ward for protection."

"Do you think I need you to remind me of such trivial things?"

Sword, as the oldest and most senior leader in the team, immediately retorted.

Tazan immediately fell silent, clearly having been bullied by the Sword Emperor using his seniority as a form of bullying.

Tazan glanced at the situation on the other lanes and prepared to take the river crab in the bottom lane first.

Coincidentally, the river crab was heading towards the mid lane, and he had already planned, "After I clear the river crab, I can move towards the mid lane and try to force Syndra's abilities."

Chaowei nodded.

They had planned everything perfectly, and Zhao Xin immediately used W to poke the river crab.

By sheer coincidence, the maximum range of his W attack landed precisely in the river bushes where Taliyah was located.

From a visual perspective, Xiao Tian felt that the thing couldn't poke him, so he didn't move to avoid it.

But who can think of it.

He actually got poked by Zhao Xin!

Taliyah's figure was immediately exposed to Zhao Xin's view.

Tazan reacted extremely quickly, giving Xiaotian no time to react at all. He immediately used his E to poke Taliyah's face, then activated his Q and continued to kite and attack!

The purpose of kiting is to avoid Taliyah's W. Tazan also takes "Phase Rush", which gives him a very fast movement speed boost, making it difficult for Taliyah's W to push him away!

"Oh no! This is bad! Taliyah is stuck with Xin Zhao. Let's see what happens! Yao is coming to support us in this direction."

Syndra moved towards the river almost immediately, clearly showing the difference in choices made by the two mid laners.

As the one whose lane was being pushed, LeBlanc seemed hesitant, while Chaowei appeared to be torn between going to the jungle to provide support and staying on the lane to farm minions.

He stood still and used an AQ combo to finish off two low-health creeps before heading towards the river.

Sometimes, just this one moment of hesitation can cause you to miss the best time to provide support!

Because both junglers were positioned very close to each other in the mid lane, Syndra quickly came to provide support.

Wang Yao wasn't greedy. He chose to use the QE combo to stun Zhao Xin in the safest way, then used W to grab the Dark Orb and throw it at him, applying Ignite!
After Zhao Xin was stunned, Taliyah immediately followed up with E+W, and her Rock Slash hit precisely.

Originally, Taliyah was getting completely destroyed, but with Syndra and Taliyah unleashing two bursts of damage, Xin Zhao's health became precarious.

Tazan was forced to Flash towards the mid lane, hoping to rejoin LeBlanc!
But Taliyah decisively followed up with Flash, and used her basic attack first to take advantage of the Red Buff's slow effect to make it easier for her to chase down the enemy.

Syndra then used her Q skill again, and continued to chase after her. The extremely short cooldown of the Q skill proved to be an advantage at this moment.

Another AQ combo was used to further reduce Xin Zhao's health.

At this moment, LeBlanc finally arrived, stepping over with her W and using her E to chain Taliyah, disrupting his continued pursuit.

But it was too late. With Syndra landing a fatal auto-attack, Xin Zhao's health was depleted, giving up first blood.
