Occupation? I won’t even hit a dog!

It's not Karsa's sole responsibility that he never had an old age score.

It’s more about the fact that the Deft+Mata combination is indeed very strong, KT’s young mid laner Ucal got the strong mid laner Galio in this version, and the difference in hero positioning between Xin Zhao and Taliyah.

As for the lack of counter-amphibious attack in the middle lane... a radar-type jungler is not a full-map jungler, so it is impossible for him to fully calculate the actions of an old monster like Score.

The bottom lane was targeted, putting EDG into a slight disadvantage.

It's ok.

Just call back.

When Taliyah showed up in the upper lane with KT's ward in front of her, Xayah and Alistar pushed forward recklessly, using Stormbreaker's equipment + attack speed dagger + shoes to suppress the resurrected Tristana at all, completely ignoring the resurrected Tristana.

On the other side, Urgot carefully controlled the line, fearing that he would be stopped by Taliyah's R and become the dead soul under Viktor's third hand.

"The blind spot of awareness is well marked."

"The question is... can we catch Xia?"

The factory manager watched this scene backstage with a questioning expression.

The term "card awareness blind spot" seems very classy.

It's not really high end stuff.

To put it in a more popular way - not playing by the rules, it is very easy to understand.

It's like two people having an argument while driving. Most of them are prepared to curse at each other or fight each other. A small part of them is prepared to prevent the other party from pulling out a dagger or a baseball bat. At most, they will think of a homemade equality device. They will never guess that the other party will pull out a 50*4cm Roman Emperor with the flying enchantment from behind his butt.

but.

The more unconventional your actions are, the more you will hurt yourself before you hurt the enemy.

For example, the Roman emperor mentioned above, who had to take into account both physical and mental attacks and had toxic enchantments, had to endure what ordinary people could not endure.

In this wave, Xayah has R, flash, and healing, and Niu also has a flash. Their self-protection ability can be said to be the best among the bottom lane combination.

Not only is Taliyah impossible to catch, but it is also easy to be killed.

Victor may not be able to win, right?

"Ye Tian has gone to the bottom lane, I think it's okay."

Mao Kai mentioned another thing: "The food delivery apps here in Korea don't give universal coupons, only discounts. The discounted items are either fried chicken or hamburgers, which are not suitable for our recipes..."

"Huh?" Abu tilted his head: "You really changed to ordering takeout?"

"Ordering takeout is also part of logistics!" Mao Kai said irrelevant words, but his eyes were fixed on the monitor hanging on the wall. It was obvious that he was not as relaxed as he appeared.

the reason is simple.

This year can be said to be EDG's weakest year.

The team stumbled in the regular season and lost to the newly established e-commerce newcomer JDG in the playoffs. Although they fought back against JDG with a score of 3-1 in the bubble match, it was still a narrow victory.

This is the first time that EDG has fallen to this level since the team was founded.

Although Ye Tian was invited to come out of retirement, he led the team to a counterattack as the "Tongtian Dai" last year, but was targeted by Riot Games for numerous weakenings - after a whole year of adjustments in S8, not only are there only a few heroes who can appear in the top position, but the choices are generally more defensive than offensive.

Taking Urgot, Aatrox, Sion, and Ornn, who are at the top of the appearance rate ranking list, as examples, they are all the type that develop and fight in team fights. They are not even suitable for split pushing, and their operating space in team fights is not particularly large. Except for Aatrox, the effects of the first-tier top laners using Sion, Ornn, and Urgot are actually not much different.

Ye Tian's use of mainstream heroes is equivalent to destroying both of his arms.

Not using mainstream heroes is going against the version, which is no different from stabbing yourself in the chest before starting a battle.

Especially in order to win the gold medal in the Asian Games, Ye Tian showed all the hidden Irelia and Akali. Without two winning cards, the general environment this year is infinitely focused on hard power confrontation, and there are no particularly good routines available. Overall, EDG's upper limit can only reach half of last year's.

If they lose this game to KT, it would be like their undefeated record being shattered, and the next games will definitely be extremely difficult.

In this regard.

Maokai had no choice.

The current situation of the EDG team is here. The comprehensive ability of the bottom lane is not up to the top level. The jungler's style of planning before acting is not suitable for strong dialogues. The mid laner has a hard time carrying the team except for the Irelia who is destined to be unavailable. Facing the three strong teams of RNG, IG, and KT, they can only rely on the performance of the top laner. Apart from collecting data, the coaching team really only has one thing to do, which is to order takeout.

the other side.

KT's backstage lounge was bustling with activity.

"It's urgent."

"Going to the bottom lane in such a blind spot means that he can't keep his mind steady."

KT head coach Chang-Jong Oh was full of confidence: "Whether we win or lose this game, we have tested EDG's level. If we meet in the knockout stage, we are confident that we can beat EDG."

"The coach is right!"

"I really don't know what Tian was thinking, using a Viktor without hard control to catch Xayah and Alistar, what a joke."

"We can't help it. He's the only one in EDG who looks like a human being. What else can we do if he doesn't fight hard? To use the old saying of our Great Cold Nation, Tian has run out of tricks!"

"Qiu Dou Ma Dai, is there a place called 'Qian' in our Great Han Ming Kingdom?" A young man with a relatively high level of education raised the question.

"You, get out!" KT head coach Chang-Jong Oh raised his hand and pointed to the door.

The commentators in Chinese, English and Korean stations used different terms, but their views were basically the same, and they all believed that it was unlikely that Ye Tian would be able to achieve anything.

In the game.

Deft and Mata led the troops to the front of the EDG tower and shot a feather shining with stars at the defense tower.

At this moment.

Meiko used a combo that she had been preparing for a long time.

R【A fleeting moment】!
flash!

W【Grand debut】!
Luo's R flash W combo does not have an R skill action, and the W charge also has a charm. Even though Deft had the fastest reaction speed, he was unable to defend against Meiko's unexpected attack.

Mata, who was standing next to him, was also controlled. He used R [Unwavering Will] on the spot, ignoring Tristana who was in output mode, and used W [Wild Charge] to push Rakan aside, preventing [Grand Debut] from taking effect on Xia. He also had Flash and Q in his hands to respond.

This shows that Mata's thinking is clear enough.

——EDG dares to drive like this in the bottom lane, there must be someone nearby.

Sion is in the middle lane, Taliyah is in the upper half, and after eliminating all impossible situations, the only hero left is Viktor. Mata must save Xia as soon as possible and save her skills to block Viktor's pursuit.

really.

The next second, Victor flashed from the other side of the wall, with golden starlight scattered around him and streams of light gathered under his feet, indicating that [Ghost Sprint] was activated.

A triangular dart loaded with hextech energy was thrown out from Victor's hand.

It is the enhanced Q [Siphon Energy]!
Xia had not yet recovered from the charm and was unable to avoid the attack. Mata used Q-flash without hesitation and used the range of [Earth Shatter] to knock her between the two heroes, Viktor and Tristana!
In Mata's opinion, if he sells out for a while, Xayah can use her R [Falling Feathers] and E [Hook] to pull away. She doesn't even need to use her summoner skills. After resurrection, she can still form a one-sided suppression in the bottom lane. There is no need to worry about Taliyah's [Wall Curtain] covering the rear.

but.

Before Mata could finish his thought, a scene that terrified all the KT members appeared before their eyes.

Tristana used W [Rocket Jump] to offset the control, jumped to the front and side, avoiding the area covered by the feathers, and continued to attack Xia who had landed.

Victor landed on the ground, took two steps forward, and suddenly moved forward four hundred and fifty yards, leaving a scattered spot of light in his place.

????!!!!!!
what?
Didn't Viktor flash over the wall? Why did he flash again?
Is there a bug?
This thought flashed through his mind, and just as he was about to enter the pause command, Mata's hands on the keyboard suddenly froze.

No.

Not a bug.

It’s Xiba’s Hex Flash!
The first Hexflash passed through the wall, and the second converted regular flash chased forward. [Ghost Sprint] increased the movement speed by 36%, and the Time Warp Tonic increased the movement speed by 5%. The three-speed shoes + magic boots talent totaled 55 points of movement speed, making Victor run like a full-speed dragon turtle.

In order to synthesize Storm Qi, Xia didn't buy any parts, and Viktor would catch up to her by two positions every second!
Logically speaking.

There is nothing wrong with Xia’s outfit.

After Storm Cut is fully charged, the first normal attack will definitely be a critical hit, which is very beneficial for bottom lane heroes who frequently exchange blood. If you use Storm Cut first, you will definitely be able to beat the opponent who doesn't have Storm Cut and make him unable to fight back.

If her finances allow, Xia will definitely take out this set of equipment.

However, the proper way of equipping to maximize combat power put Xia into a dead end where she had no power to struggle!

“Middle, middle!”

"take a look!"

Deft shouted anxiously.

“It’s too late for me to teleport!” Ucal had just used his ultimate, and there was no suitable TP point in the bottom lane, so he could only watch his teammates being chased.

"Ah... I've been cheated." The old captain Score followed Taliyah to the upper area and could only groan when he saw this.

Ye Tian slowly chased into the skill range, clicked on the enhanced normal attack first, waited for the fourth bullet of the cannon to refresh W [Rocket Jump] to be fired, and then used R [Chaos Storm] at Xia Gai.

Xia gave up her flash, and Tristana used her second [Rocket Jump] to attack the enemy in the face. After two basic attacks, she turned around to look for the Bull, giving the kill to Ye Tian.

Mata attempted to run towards the river.

Scout waited for a long time and drove over in the car of Sean.

boom--

The locomotive transformed by Tyrant Zero Sion hit the old bull, followed by a sure-hit EQ combo. After dealing full damage, he pressed S to stop, without even exploding the shield, giving Ye Tian another kill.

During the output process, Ye Tian also stole the fourth purse, which contained 107 gold coins.

"Six hundred dollars for the head, one hundred dollars for the purse."

"Brother Tian made a lot of money this time!"

Ze Yuan was full of praise: "KT lit up the vision of the lower half of the zone and made a watertight defense, but Tian Ge tore a hole in this watertight defense. Hexflash combined with regular flash for two displacements left Xia and Lao Niu with full skills with no way to escape!"

"KT's bottom lane not only lost two kills, but also lost all summoner skills." Su Xiaoyan pointed out the key: "Let's take a look at the replay. Tian Ge came over with a stolen True Sight Potion and charged Hexflash. Meiko took the initiative to force a set of skills, creating a good enough pursuit environment for Tian Ge and Iboy... Scout then drove the car to stop Lao Niu, and finally all stopped. It was very disciplined."

"EDG has been cultivating discipline since last year." Wang Duoduo mentioned something that made him happy: "Others may not be able to carry the game when they take the economy, but there is no time when Tian Ge does not carry the game when he takes the economy. The most important thing is that most of the opportunities are only seized by Tian Ge, so it would be unreasonable not to give up kills."

[You said Tian Ge was shopping? Apologize! ]

【I’m sorry, brother Tian】

[I can actually use Hexflash to double flash, two stages of displacement, it’s too powerful.]

[Tian Ge has already gone to the bottom lane, and I, a diamond player in zone 1, still don’t know how to catch Xia. The gap is too big]

[Don’t even mention diamonds in zone 1, even I, the Canyon Master, don’t know how to catch them]

[KT coach was beaten up and jumped up hahaha]

S8 added an interactive session, which would broadcast the situation in the backstage lounge to the audience. KT coach jumped three feet high from his chair and almost prostrated himself in front of the camera.

"EDG took the first Earth Dragon, and KT could only trade it with the Rift Herald."

Ze Yuan made a simple analysis: "But in this game, EDG does not have a great need for the Rift Herald. Compared with the previous fast-attack lineup, EDG is not afraid of dragging it out in this game. By the time Viktor's equipment is ready, Xia will have almost no output space in team battles."

"That's right. Brother Tian's lead in the match has reached 1,200 yuan." Wang Duoduo looked at the economic chart. "Kills and assists are only a little over 600, and the remaining 500 are from last hits and Kleptomancy. After the price of Kleptomancy items sold in the store has been greatly reduced, this is the first time I have earned so much money in the arena."

"Brother Tian, ​​upgrade your Hex Core again, evolve your E skill, and switch to the middle lane." Su Xiaoyan understood very well: "Without dual skills, Viktor is in a dangerous period. He can be easily ganked or tower dived by Xin Zhao. Evolving the E skill basically eliminates this risk. One E can kill ranged soldiers in seconds, and then QA can clear all melee soldiers. A wave of soldiers can be seen in a few seconds."

Not only that.

Sion saved up his money and took out a Z'Rot portal, placing it behind his own mid tower before turning around and walking up.

Can Galio still fly?

can.

But as long as Galio flies away, he must pay the price of the middle lane outer tower. In the game where EDG got an Earth Dragon and the second Earth Dragon was also an Earth Dragon, KT could not give up the middle lane outer tower that radiated the jungle on both sides before the second Earth Dragon refreshed. Zhao Xin's plan of taking Galio into the jungle to find Taliyah was shattered.

The tactic of releasing the Rift Herald to force a pass was not effective against Sion. Xayah and Alistar still had the advantage in equipment, but without double skills and ultimates, they couldn't even get past half the court.

The situation faced by the KT team went from being smooth at the beginning to becoming extremely difficult.

EDG changed its fast-paced play from last year and the Asian Games, and developed slowly. Although Viktor, who did not have two skills, could not trigger the Kleptomancy Omen against Galio, he could deal with the minions in four or five seconds and then go to eat wild monsters. The speed of economic improvement was still the highest in the game.

16 minutes 17 seconds.

The second earth dragon folded its wings and landed in the river bay.

A decisive battle is about to begin! (End of this chapter)
