Chapter 479 Predator Centaur! A successful raid kills Clockwerk!

"EDG needs to level up as soon as possible. Once they have their ultimate ability, that's when Marco Polo will truly shine!"

During the competition.

The two sides swapped jungle areas, and all other players in their respective positions logged in normally.

"The enemy jungler started with red buff in my bottom jungle, so they're probably going to gank your bottom lane. Xiao Zhao, Tian Ye, you have to be careful!"

At this moment, Wang Yao's men, with Kennen's help, were farming their own blue buff while giving a warning.

SKT's top lane consists of Viktor and Orianna, who have no way to coordinate with Jarvan IV in the early game.

Therefore, Clid's Jarvan IV will definitely need to focus on the lower jungle in the early game.

"Okay okay."

Upon hearing this, iboy nodded in response.

iboy's Xayah has also started to consciously stop pushing the lane.

Logically, Xayah and Rakan should have lane priority, but iboy and Meiko played very conservatively, showing no intention of going forward to trade damage.

This is where EDG did well: Wang Yao's heroes were fighting around the upper jungle, and EDG's bot lane immediately became more stable.

If it were Zaozi, no matter where the enemy team was, Xayah and Rakan would have already rushed in for a brutal trade of blows.

iboy's Xayah deliberately stayed away from the bottom jungle river entrance, placed a defensive ward, and positioned herself very close to her own wall.

Meiko's Luo was positioned higher up, blocking the prince's path.

This way, it won't be so easy for the other side to catch you.

SKT had no way to deal with EDG's solid bottom lane.

Their prince is practically a given in the lower jungle, so of course they have to play aggressively.

But EDG didn't fall for it.

Xayah was just finishing off the low-health minions, trying her best to control the minion wave towards her own turret.

They didn't even bother competing with them for level two or lane control anymore.

iboy started competing with Captain Teddy to see who had better last-hitting skills.

At this moment, the bottom lane minion wave was positioned in the middle of the river, closer to EDG's position, which made it difficult for both junglers to gank.

Meanwhile, Clid was farming jungle monsters across the entire lower half of the map.

After clearing the red buff, the prince first clears the Krugs, then returns to his own jungle.

After leaving the Prince and the EDG jungle, the enemy Hecarim was still not found on the minimap.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time he felt very puzzled.

Where on earth did that human-shaped creature go?!

And this time, on the other side.

After clearing the enemy's three jungle camps, Wang Yao immediately chose to return to base.

Combined with the initial natural economic growth, he was able to buy a pair of straw sandals.

"Oh? Hecarim bought boots first! That's a pretty good build, considering Kshine's Hecarim has the Predator rune."

"With the added movement speed from my E skill and boots, plus the sprint ability, I can run incredibly fast!"

Upon seeing this, I couldn't help but say something.

I remember you were right.

Movement speed from runes, movement speed from items, and movement speed from summoner spells.

The game had barely begun when the Centaur's movement speed skyrocketed.

"Oh... Wang Yao's Hecarim also has his own understanding of the game! Hecarim's E skill damage is not only increased by skill level and equipment, but also by movement speed! The higher the movement speed, the higher the damage of the E skill!"

I remember realizing it immediately and exclaiming in surprise.

Meanwhile, Wang Yao had already led the Home Guardians back to the city and rushed towards the lower half of the jungle!

At this moment, SKT never expected that after clearing only half of the jungle, Hecarim would immediately recall to base, buy a pair of boots, and head to the empty lower jungle.

But right now, the jungler, Prince, is still farming his own Gromp.

After clearing the frog, clear the three wolves, and then you can return to base to buy a jungle item.

Just as he finished killing the toad and was about to go fight the three wolves...

A centaur icon was seen running wildly across the minimap!
"Holy crap?! How can this centaur run so fast?!"

"And he's even abandoning the jungle monsters in the upper half of the jungle? Is he trying to force a gank in the mid lane?!"

At this moment, Clid was immediately shocked and quickly went to support Faker in the mid lane.

This guy is the real SKT daddy. If he were to give up Faker's status for a jungle monster, Kkoma would have to carry him off the chair.

And at the same time.

Faker was also startled when he saw the man suddenly appear.

"What the hell?!"

"Why would someone appear in the mid lane at this time?!"

"And it came out of the lower jungle!"

Faker's Orianna mid laner against Kled will definitely have lane priority in the first three levels.

Meanwhile, the minion wave is being pushed towards the enemy.

However, Faker was also very careful. He knew that Hecarim might swap jungle camps with Jarvan IV, so he placed his trinket ward in the upper jungle.

Seeing that the upper half of the river was deserted, he dared to slowly cross the line, and his position was also closer to the lower half of the river.

Because their own jungler, Prince, was farming in the lower half of the jungle.

After all, Orianna is a long-range champion, while Kled has a relatively short range. In the early game, before he gets his items and levels up, he can still try to suppress him.

How could I possibly be afraid of a mere Kree?

But at this moment, Wang Yao's men suddenly rushed out from the lower jungle, and Faker panicked for a moment.

Once Scout saw that his wild dad was in position, he immediately took action.

Kled, who was originally a short-ranged character and was about to be knocked off his horse by the clockwork, suddenly launched a fierce attack.

Orianna's E skill provides a short dash to get close, and her Q skill, the Bear Claw, accurately hits her.

Then, after waiting for about a second.

Before Kled could retract his grappling hook, Scout immediately used Blink.

Wind it up again, right up to the face!

Even if Faker's Orianna used Flash again at this point, it would be useless, and she would still be pulled back.

1.75 seconds later, the clockwork is pulled back, dealing high physical damage and slowing it by 40% for 1.5 seconds.

At this moment, Faker hurriedly pressed Flash to create distance between himself and Kled, waiting for Jarvan IV's support.

But he was overthinking it.

At this moment, the centaurs, carrying predators and riding sprinting horses, seemed to have wheels of fire under their feet, running incredibly fast!

It also comes with a red special effect, making it look very cool!

In an instant, it slammed hard into the wind-up machine, which had no time to react.

Boom!
With Hecarim's massive movement speed and maximum E skill damage, he directly knocked Orianna, who still had about two-thirds of her health, down to below half health!

At the same time, he kicked the clockwork back into Kree's face.

"Holy crap?! How can this damage be so ridiculously high compared to the Centaur?!"

When Faker saw his health suddenly drop, his heart skipped a beat.

But then, Faker's heart sank.

We can't leave!

Although Clid's prince rushed towards the mid lane as fast as he could, it was too late.

After all, Centaur and Kled are quite strong pursuers.

Centaur's red buff had already stuck to him, and Centaur with Sprint activated was fanning himself like an electric fan.

Kled had already unleashed his four lightning-fast strikes, and Clockwerk's health was already critically low; he had no other survival skills left.

The only remaining question is who will claim his first time?!

Faker's clockwork stopped working.

Having lost the initiative, he was relentlessly pursued by Centaur and Kled, and also stuck to the red buff.

So the clockwork stopped running and just followed the centaur and Kled around in the grass.

It would be good to let Kled eat as few minions as possible after the minion wave pushes into the tower!

"Brother Yao, Brother Yao, you keep this head! I won't eat it."

Seeing the low-health Clockwerk, Scout wisely pressed the S key to stop his actions, resisting his greed.

Although he really wanted the kill on Orianna, Kled could easily beat a mage like Orianna as he leveled up, but having a kill would significantly accelerate his lane dominance.

However, Scout is also very clear about his role. He can steal kills from iboy and Flandre, but he can't steal kills from Wang Yao!
But the next second.

"You eat it!" Wang Yao's calm voice came from behind.

He was playing Centaur in this game, not a jungle carry like Juggernaut, so he didn't need that many kills.

Instead, this game requires Scout's Kled and his other teammates to step up and perform.

He can no longer recklessly consume resources like other jungle carries.

"Aigoo! Okay, Yao-ge."

Upon hearing Wang Yao speak, Scout's mouth practically stretched to the back of his head in a wide grin.

Ultimately, after a two-second tug-of-war, Kled still managed to snatch the head of Clockwerk.

Immediately afterwards, a kill notification sound slowly rang out:
"Kled the Furious Knight has killed Orianna, the Clockwork Demon!"

"Firstblood!!"

"First Blood!!"

First blood has been earned! "Oh... Hecarim's Predator and Ghost have really done a great job this time! This movement speed boost, combined with Hecarim's E skill, makes his damage output in the early game comparable to some heroes' ultimate abilities!"

Watching what was happening on the field, I couldn't help but admire it.

"Yes, as the director is replaying the footage, we can see that Wang Yao's men activated their Predator effect as soon as they entered the Six Birds area."

"With the help of Ghost, it only took two seconds to run from the raptor pit to the mid lane, and then with the E skill, he kicked Faker's Orianna!"

"That's incredibly fast!!"

At this moment, Guan Zeyuan couldn't help but sigh.

"None of these are the key points. The main thing is that Wang Yao's men are moving at a very good pace!"

"After swapping jungle camps with the prince, I only cleared two camps of monsters and reached level three. I didn't even clear the monsters in my own blue buff jungle. I went straight back to base, bought a pair of boots, and started doing things!"

"This is crucial. Everyone on SKT focused their attention on the upper jungle. Khan placed a ward in the tri-bush, and Faker placed a ward at the entrance to the upper jungle."

"Faker's positioning was also towards the bottom, but Wang Yao's Hecarim suddenly appeared from the bottom of the map, catching SKT completely off guard!"

Zaozi, on the other hand, viewed Hecarim's gank from the perspective of a professional player.

The key lies in the difference in field of vision and eye position.

At this moment, even the audience was stunned.

Originally, it was thought that SKT would develop steadily in this game and not give Wang Yao any opportunities in the jungle, but unexpectedly, Wang Yao found a weakness and broke through it in just three minutes.

And it's Faker, the anchor of SKT's mid lane!

"Wow... I didn't know these predator centaurs were this fierce! I always bring Conquerors!"

"Holy crap?! That's seriously amazing!"

"Damn, Yao-ge is really consistent! He can get things done in three minutes every time!"

"It's still that familiar taste, and it's still that familiar Yao-ge!"

"Hehe, looking at Wang Yao's calm expression, I knew it was already a sure thing!"

"..."

The competition is still ongoing.

Orianna got the first blood, and Clid's Jarvan IV was just one step away from Orianna as he rushed down.

But he couldn't save Clockwork's life and could only watch helplessly as it died.

After Wang Yao's team killed Orianna, they immediately disappeared into the jungle.

Centaur's actions this time cost him two groups of jungle monsters in the early game.

After clearing the red buff and two camps of jungle monsters (Krugs) in the Prince's jungle, the Centaur immediately returned to base to do his own thing.

So the three wolves and the toad are still in the upper jungle, and Wang Yao still has plenty of resources and economy in his jungle.

At this moment, Faker's expression was rather serious.

Although his Orianna died once, he had Teleport as his Summoner Spell, so it didn't affect his development too much.

But the key point is that the enemy Kled got the first blood.

Clockwerk is a mid-to-late game mage hero. Although he has speed boosts and shields, he lacks mobility.

Facing Kled, who had secured first blood, Orianna not only dared not push the lane, but Kled instead gained lane control.

This means that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Faker's Orianna will be bound to a spirit in this game.

Once Kled reaches level six, he can roam freely without pressure.

Clid himself didn't want to suffer these things.

"Do not worry."

"Oke Oke!"

At this point, both the middle and bottom lanes responded.

For the next three minutes, Wang Yao's men disappeared into the jungle.

He's used Predator and Sprint in a three-minute burst, but he's not level six yet, making things too difficult.

SKT didn't give Wang Yao a chance either.

After suffering a setback, SKT players clearly played much more steadily.

I'd rather not go up to farm minions than give the opponent any chance to gank!
At the same time, their defensive wards were completely full.

No matter where the team goes, SKT places wards everywhere.

So the centaur replaced the fake eyes with scanners, and also brought two real eyes.

In this game, Wang Yao played a very team-oriented game. His main responsibility was to initiate team fights and charge into enemy lines, while the main damage dealers were not him.

Hecarim cleared all of SKT's defensive wards in the top and bottom jungles and continued to kite Clid's Jarvan IV back and forth in the jungle.

Clid played Jarvan IV very conservatively in this game, with his only chance in the early game being the bottom lane.

However, EDG's bot lane isn't like Uzi; they're determined to settle things with the opponent.

If the Xayah and Rakan duo can maintain their current form and don't make any roster changes with SKT, then they won't be able to do anything against EDG's bot lane.

"Oh? It's clear that every position on SKT played very steadily. Apart from giving up a kill on Orianna in the first wave, they didn't give EDG and Wang Yao any chance in the next three minutes!"

Remember blinked and said.

"The main reason is that the South Korean team's playing style has always been like this. They tend to focus on the late game and strategic management, waiting for their lineup to reach its peak."

"And it's clear that their lineup hasn't reached its peak performance yet."

Looking at the situation on the field, Colonel Guan couldn't help but say something.

"Khan's Viktor in the top lane, Faker's Orianna in the mid lane, and Kai'Sa in the bottom lane, a standard three-core lineup."

"Adding a prince and a titan can initiate team fights, making them very strong in late-game team fights, but they all need to farm until the late game to have the ability to take over the game."

"We have no choice but to let this guy go now."

Brother Zaozi also shared his opinion.

And then Kled's period of dominance arrived.

The situation on the field has changed dramatically.

Although Wang Yao's forces did not continue their actions, the pressure on Clid's Prince in the jungle was increasing.

Not only were all the river crabs in the upper and lower reaches of the river controlled, but the first little dragon was also captured.

Fortunately, the first little dragon's attributes weren't very good.

It is a wind dragon soul.

SKT's lineup hasn't improved much, so SKT has no desire to improve at all.

However, the Wind Dragon is a different story for EDG.

The movement speed boost from the Wind Dragon is incredibly beneficial for champions like Hecarim, Kled, and Kennen.

The game has been going on for six minutes.

The mid and top lanes, which are solo lanes, have already reached level 6.

With a strong economy, Kled didn't hesitate to build Tiamat first.

Having the ability to push lanes in the mid lane is very important!
At this point, Centaur was only level 5, but Kled, who was level 6, still needed to cooperate with Wang Yao to enter the jungle.

Faker, who was laning against him, had a very difficult time playing.

Kled, with his first blood economy, can build Tiamat first, which is more useful than Clockwork.

At this point, Orianna, who had returned to base once but hadn't purchased any AP items, had absolutely no wave clear ability.

He could only watch helplessly as Kled pushed the minion wave to the tower and then disappeared into the jungle.

After Kled pushed the lane, he immediately cooperated with Hecarim to forcefully invade the enemy's lower jungle.

Just then, the prince's blue buff refreshed.

And the other side.

Clid's Prince couldn't beat Hecarim in the early game, especially with the enemy's mid and jungle invading.

Left with no other option, he ran towards his own upper jungle area to farm jungle monsters.

Of course, as a qualified jungler, he can't learn from Wang Yao, such as helping his good buddy push a wave of lanes and leeching some experience.

Otherwise, Faker and Khan would definitely carry him off the field, chair and all.

Moreover, the princes' surplus funds are used to buy true sights and improve their vision, so their finances are not good.

"Oh... Clid's Jarvan IV is getting more and more frustrated with this game! Not only did he fail to control both Rift Scuttler, but he also lost his entire lower jungle!"

Guan Zeyuan analyzed the situation on the field.

"Yes."

Remember nodded and continued, "Clid is probably three camps behind Centaur now, almost a level in experience!"

"Most importantly, once the troops reach level six..."

With Kled's ultimate, there's a very high chance of a 4v2 dive on the bottom lane. SKT will have a hard time defending against that!

Uzbekistan's mind was much clearer when he wasn't physically present.

From a professional player's perspective, they have already seen through the course of the upcoming match.

Remember, Guan Zeyuan and Uzi were talking back and forth.

7 minutes 20 seconds.

The Centaur, who had been farming the jungle, was the first to reach level 6, while Clid's Jarvan IV was only level 5.

At the same time, just as Zaozi Ge predicted, the bottom lane's four-man gank and two-man gank arrived as expected.

EDG's vision has spread throughout the entire lower jungle, with some wards even extending deep into SKT's blue buff jungle, and even to the first and second towers.

These are all offensive wards; once a fight breaks out, Kennen in the top lane can also teleport.

And it's a very deep backstab!
Both top laners played very cautiously in this game, holding onto their first teleport and not using it on the lane.

However, SKT was well prepared, with Clid's Jarvan IV already positioned behind the first tower to counter-gank.
