League of Legends: Reborn in Season 3, Tuning the Entire League

Chapter 244: We'll crush you with our operations!

"The spider has been crouching for a bit too long."

"Yes, Bencić wasted too much time counter-ganking in the top lane; Aatrox had no intention of going to the top lane at all."

"NXG's decision-makers completely figured out SKT's tactical thinking."

In the game footage, compared to the Spider who remained motionless in the top lane bush, the Aatrox, who had cleared an entire jungle, neither went to the top lane nor to the bottom lane to help Zac. Instead, he went back to base and upgraded his equipment, buying another Doran's Blade to enhance his early-game combat ability.

Less than four minutes into the game, Aatrox was already nearly twice as far ahead of Spider in terms of development, even though Spider still had two camps of jungle monsters left to farm in the top half of the map.

"It's very comfortable. With this kind of rhythm, Aatrox can go back to base to replenish his equipment, and by the time he comes back to the second set of jungle monsters in the top half of the map, they have already spawned and are waiting. On the other hand, Bengi's Elise has to leave the duo side because she needs to go back to clear the jungle monsters. So, whether Aatrox continues to farm jungle monsters to improve his development or ganks lanes, the initiative is in his own hands."

Little Stone doesn't need to rush to set the pace. The level 1 team fight created an advantage in Summoner Spells, making SKT's early-game heroes more hesitant in trading blows. Whether it's the duo or Zac in the bot lane, the difference in lane is only one or two CS. If he rushes to set the pace, he might end up making things worse.

Five minutes later, the blue team's Aatrox was already one level ahead of the Spider.

"The plane wasn't purified!"

Just then, the duo that had switched to the top lane suddenly received good news.

During the brief moment when the two junglers met in the bottom river, Pang Ran seized upon SKT's overly forward positioning of the Corki, using his EAQ combo combined with Varus's burst damage to bring Corki to low health.

This wave involved Leona using Ignite to trade for the plane's Clarity and most of its health.

Unfortunately, due to the large number of enemy soldiers, the two did not dare to go all in.

"Push the lane, switch the lane back, and prepare to attack the dragon."

After gaining an advantage in the online skirmish, the plane is left with low health and must return to base. Our team pushes the lane first, then moves to the bottom lane, where the duo lane has an opportunity to rotate and attack.

OGN commentary booth.

The South Korean commentator practically screamed in agony, as if his head had been shattered, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"

“piglet, you guys can’t have any problems. NXG’s offensive round has already started ahead of schedule. The bot lane duo has moved to the bottom lane. Impact, get out of here quickly.”

Clearly, external signals cannot be transmitted to the ongoing game, not to mention the approximately thirty-second delay between the two sides.

Just as the commentators, with their God's-eye view, saw Varus and Leona rotating to the bottom lane, the actual game already saw DaMu surrounded by enemies.

Song Yuan's Zac initiated with a jump E to knock up the enemy, followed by Xiao Shi's Aatrox, whose Dark Leap sent the landed Renekton back into the air.

Leona provides crowd control, while Varus simply needs to stay behind the group and auto-attack silently.

First blood!

NXG Stone has defeated SKT Impact!

The first blood was drawn, and the LPL audience erupted in cheers.

[I have a question: Why does SKT's top laner's ID sometimes say "Knock-up," sometimes "Stun," and then the kill notification changes to "Impact"? Is this a display error?]

[To the person upstairs: I admire your talent.]

[Hilarious! DaMu really thinks he's invincible with his level 6 Renekton? Zac and the jungler might not be able to beat you, but what if I add my bot lane?]

[Before the match: The duo needs to call for the jungler. During the match: Sorry, our duo can also roam and gank!]

The gap, that's the gap!

[SKT seemed a bit disoriented from the start. Their bot lane was forced to recall, and NXG's Varus didn't take advantage of that time to push the tower. The Renekton in the bottom half of the map should have left by then.]

Wuhu, a case of losing both wife and army.

The first blood occurred in six minutes, which is not just a matter of four hundred gold. After killing the crocodile, the NXG team went on to cause trouble for the dragon.

"Killing people, taking dragons... an all-too-familiar NXG rhythm."

The English commentator remarked, "Players all over the world know what NXG's tactics are all about, but no one can stop them."

"Hey buddy, I think we should keep an eye on the mid lane."

"When his teammates were controlling the dragon, Orianna in the mid lane used her ultimate, which also lowered the level of SKT's mid lane."

"Perfect teamwork, Orianna's shockwave poses a kill threat to Gragas, Bengi must go to the mid lane to keep an eye on him."

With the first blood and the dragon, the economic gap between the two sides suddenly reached nearly two thousand. Fortunately, the combination of Corki and Lulu managed to push down the top lane tower, which somewhat made up for the economic loss.

In the version update, Riot only remembered to buff the attack power of the turrets, forgetting to reinforce the opponent's flimsy and shoddy construction.

but……

"We're still losing money!"

In the audience, Koma covered his face in anguish.

In the early game, the enemy team secured first blood and controlled the dragon, while you only managed to push down a turret that you should have been able to take in lane. Isn't that a huge loss?

Even this tower was acquired at the cost of a series of subsequent negative consequences.

SKT's bot lane duo forcefully pushed the tower, meaning they couldn't immediately rotate to the bottom lane after pushing the lane. At that moment, they were facing NXG's bot lane duo, with DaMu's Renekton still in the lineup.

At the same time, with the top tower gone, Zac will control a large wave of minions, and when Renekton moves back to the top lane, he will face the problem of the minion wave being too deep.

If you eat minions, you'll get caught.

Don't eat?

Haha, so this crocodile that died once is now completely crippled.

Jiang Ming's first ban on Zed in the first game had this meaning: I'm not going to play any fancy maneuvers with SKT, I'll just use macro to deal with you. "Oh my, Pangpang is so clever. After helping his teammates fight the dragon roar, he simply left Varus alone in the bottom lane against Renekton. Because Pyke didn't have vision of Leona and didn't know that the support wasn't around, he didn't dare to go forward easily."

"In the top half of the map, we saw that SKT's bot lane wasted some time again, trying to coordinate with their mid and jungle to invade Orianna's blue buff area and limit Jm's development, but NXG was very aggressive—"

"You call for help, and I can call for help too. Today, my boss's blue buff must be kept."

"Both junglers sparred with Smite, oh—the Blue Buff was still defended by Aatrox, but it's still acceptable, after all, Orianna didn't get the Blue Buff, so Gragas's days will be much easier later."

"What do we do when we're on the road?" Xiaoxiao suddenly interjected.

"After the first tower was destroyed by the plane, the Renekton could only watch helplessly as Zac slowly controlled the lane and farmed. A big boss will probably emerge on the left side soon..."

Zac not only had equal last-hitting against Renekton, but he was even slightly ahead in experience. How many times have you heard of such a magical reality?
SKT was well aware of the risks in the top lane, but they had no other choice at the moment.

After the crocodile was killed for the first time and its early advantage was wiped out by repeated lane swaps, it lost its strategic value.

With no way to counter the mid lane, Bengi has no choice but to stick closely with the bot lane duo.

Nine minutes.

Piglet redeemed himself by hitting Varus with two missiles and his Q skill in succession during the lane. Because one of the missiles was a super missile, Varus's health bar dropped sharply.

Fumando, as expected of SKT's brains, immediately used his EQ combo and Ignite to forcefully reduce Varus's health.

"Dive the tower! Dive the tower!"

"SKT's bot lane pulled off a very impressive trade, Sorry was in terrible shape, and Elise came running after him."

"Hey, you idiot, weren't you supposed to be ganking mid? What are you doing in bot lane?"

"NXG's duo is dangerous. Pangpang is extremely disciplined. He placed a ward in the tri-bush before the minions entered the tower."

"We've spotted the Spider. Should the three members of the purple team target Leona first? Aatrox is on his way. Stone has Boots of Mobility, making him incredibly fast. If SKT chases too far, things could get messed up."

"Wind-up!"

"Clockwork is here too, JM got there first with Gragas."

Chased by SKT's duo and Elise, Xu Jing made a brilliant play, escaping alone with low health instead of immediately sacrificing Leona.

He turned around and threw out the Corruption Chains, controlling the foremost plane while simultaneously activating his Light Shield to help him withstand the damage from two skills.

boom!
Having done all this, Xu Jing decisively switched sides.

"Brother, this is all I can do to help you."

"That's fine, leave the rest to us."

Pang Ran saw the location of his own midfield and stopped running away, turning around and pointing.

【The Blade of Destiny】

"This war will be my masterpiece!"

"Attack!"

Two deep hero voices echoed through the jungle. The next second, before the three SKT players could react to the golden light that Leona had turned around, Darkin had already spread his wings in the sky.

boom!
[Dark Leap] knocked Ye and Fu back. The plane thought it had escaped unscathed, but a powerful shockwave tore through space and pulled it back heavily.

[Command - Shockwave]!
Whoosh!

The Sword Demon raised his longsword high, [and began a bloodbath].

"Here we go! NXG's mid and jungle support is incredibly fast. Aatrox knocks up two, Orianna gives the ball, and her ultimate knocks up three more."

"The Sword Demon has started slashing."

With his greatsword turning deep purple, Aatrox gained increased attack speed and range, each strike deadly, wielding his blade to take away the health bars of countless SKT trios.

NXG Stone has killed SKT Bengi!

NXG Stone kills SKT Piglet!

"Ming-ge, show your head!"

"you eat."

Without turning his head, Jiang Ming secured three assists, and after confirming that the Sword Demon could take them all, he turned and sprinted towards his own mid lane.

With no hope of providing support, SKT's top and mid laners began relentlessly destroying his mid tower.

Zac's damage wasn't enough; Song Yuan alone couldn't stop him.

Clockwerk's early game damage output is average; losing the mid-lane tower just to get that kill isn't worth it.

With the jungle economy drastically changed, Aatrox also has the ability to carry the game. By feeding three kills to the enemy and then getting in a couple more hits, he can make up for the damage he lacks.

"Ok."

Seeing this, Little Stone didn't hesitate and unleashed a powerful third strike with his greatsword, dealing extra damage and taking away Lulu's last bit of health.

As Fumanduo's screen turned black and white, the captivating announcement from the system's female voice followed.

Triple Kill!
