Chapter 84 The insidious infiltrator Q!

The royal family still managed to secure the first tower.

Of course, the price was that Rumble's development was completely ruined, and the top and mid lane turrets were running out of health.

"Little Dragon Team!"

They didn't give the Royal Club a chance to take the tower and then the dragon. The early game, this epic monster gave each player 190 gold, which was quite a substantial amount of gold.

The top laner Gragas got half a wave of minions thanks to Jax's humility, so he didn't fall behind in farming. After the two of them tower-dived and intercepted another wave of minions, they both recalled to base.

"Here it comes! NXG's best lane-switching tactic: the top lane minions are constantly being eroded by the turret. Because Royal Club has four players sharing the gold, they've fallen far behind in CS."

"Olaf arrived in the bottom jungle first and immediately helped his teammates block the bottom lane. Wow, this is true love."

Miller said with a hint of envy, "If I were a female player, and a jungler blocked my lane like that, I'd definitely ask to be his friend forever."

The live stream chat was filled with tearful white text.

What is a professional team? This is what a professional team is all about. Their discipline is so strict that even the jungler will help his lane teammates hold the lane and wait for them to recall so they can come and farm.

A casual game?

Damn it, I'm already grateful if the jungler doesn't come and steal my wave of minions.

Jiang Ming glanced at the discussion in the live stream and remained noncommittal. Players seemed to have overestimated the discipline of professional players. There were still countless examples of teams that were leading by tens of thousands of gold being turned around in one fell swoop. The strength lay in certain teams that emphasized discipline, not in the fact that being a professional player automatically endowed one with discipline.

Olaf, as a standard early-game jungler, has accomplished most of his task by setting the pace and helping the lanes develop. With jungle resources so scarce in Season 3, since it's difficult for him to carry the game himself, he can simply be the second support.

After Royal Club destroyed the first tower, their pace clearly slowed down briefly.

Tabe's idea was to take the dragon first, but the top and mid lane minions were losing money like crazy due to NXG and Jax's push. Considering that the gold couldn't make up for the experience, and that the blue team's recall to base to restock and replenish their supplies was too fast, he had no choice but to send his players back to their lanes after lingering in place for a few seconds.

At this point, the difference in thinking between the two sides became apparent in its impact on the course of the battle.

While the top and mid laners were recalling, NXG's bot laners pushed the lane and immediately rotated to top, while Gragas and Jax, who had finished replenishing their items and left the base, went back to mid and bot lane respectively, forming a perfect lane rotation.

Off the field, despite losing the opening match, WE's players did not leave due to ongoing commercial activities with the club.

At this moment, Mingkai, who was leaning against the railing on the second floor of the venue, had a gleam in his eyes. "Switch lines...switch lines...so this is how you can play."

"The mid and jungle gank top, the bot lane rotates to mid to avoid the gank, then the mid and top lanes recall to farm, and the bot lane goes to top again..."

Curly, who was watching "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" on his phone, gave a more specific description: "The kind that doesn't waste a single soldier."

"We can practice more when we get back!"

"Extra practice? I feel like this kind of coordination can't be developed in just a day or two," Ruofeng said subconsciously.

"Then we won't practice?"

"And then they'll keep losing!"

“Our activities have already delayed a lot of training. If this continues, we won’t be able to go to the World Championship this year.”

"Hey, it's not that serious, it was just a casual remark."

Strawberry, the kind-hearted person, saw that things were not going well and quickly stepped forward to pull Mingkai back.

"Watch the game first. As for researching NXG, Abu is there to handle that."

"I……"

Mingkai stared at a mid-laner who had missed countless ultimates in the opening match, and recalled the contributions the other player had made to the team. He opened his mouth but then swallowed back what he was about to say.

……

"what!"

"The other side is so annoying!"

"Why keep switching lanes? Can't you just focus on laning?" UZI slammed his hand on the table.

Spider-Man instinctively asked Tabe for his opinion, "The duo has been moved to the top lane, what do you say?"

"We can have two players on the bottom lane and use the numerical advantage to take the dragon first."

"Rumble has nowhere to farm, Zyra and Ezreal are about to reach level six, what if Olaf comes later?"

"Let's switch. Shenchao, go down. We can continue pushing the top lane's first tower and use the tower's gold to make up for the gap." Tabe thought for a moment, and based on his previous understanding of NXG, he decided to take UZI up to find EZ and Zyra.

……

"Honestly, Jax is getting such a good early game. I rarely see Jax get this much farmed, not even in professional matches or casual games." Miller looked at the stats panel. "Tsk tsk, less than ten minutes and he's already approaching 100 CS."

"Okay, we see that Royal Club has moved their bot lane to the top lane to continue taking down NXG's turrets. Since EZ bought Tear of the Goddess on his first recall, Royal Club's Caitlyn and Janna are definitely stronger in terms of combat power."

"Wait a minute, the NXG duo has gone back to base again... But wouldn't it be a waste to switch in the Weapon Master?"

Before Su Xiaoyan could even think about it, she saw the Weapon Master, who had been slowly farming and controlling the lane in the bottom lane, suddenly speed up his clearing of minions.

The audience, who were viewing things from God's perspective, suddenly realized what was happening.

NXG isn't going to keep changing weapons; they're going to coordinate with their teammates to keep taking down Shenchao's Rumble.

The jungler and mid laner arrived early. Facing Rumble who didn't have Flash, Jax went under the tower and stunned him first. Gragas and Olaf provided additional damage, and even Xu Jing's Ezreal managed to land a powerful ultimate from a distance.

NXG-yihan has killed ROYAL-godlike!

As expected, facing the deliberate targeting of the NXG members, Shenchao once again watched the black and white TV in the fountain.

Waiter's Fizz and Elise were in the bottom half of the map this time, but with the top laner dying first and the EZ and Zyra duo arriving on the battlefield, they didn't dare to have any ideas at all.

Have?
What do you have, 2 against 5?
After killing Rumble, except for Jax who recalled to base, the other four easily took down the next tower and also secured the spawned dragon.

"Those guys at NXG are so experienced in how to target Rambo!"

"He died again. Shenchao is completely out of the game now."

"Now we can only see how well Caitlyn and Fizz perform in team fights. Caitlyn's development hasn't been affected much during this time."

"The royal duo pushed down another defensive tower, bringing their economy back significantly."

"It's acceptable. The female police officer's tower-pushing rhythm has picked up, so it's not a complete loss."

Miller's classic line, "No mistake," effectively kicked off the mid-game phase of the match.

Whether it's a loss or not, only the players on the field and Jiang Ming, the head coach off the field, know the truth.

"The royal family is losing money hand over fist!"

This should have been a situation where Caitlyn's tactical advantage allowed her to continuously push forward and control the pace of the game. Now, although she has a lead in turrets, Caitlyn and Ezreal are still evenly matched in terms of economy, and Royal Club is lagging behind in all other positions.

This doesn't even include Rambo, who was already in a 0-2-0 explosion state.

Rambo only had a pair of straw sandals and a small mask in his pocket at this moment, while he immediately had three weapons in his hands, the difference between them was terrifying.

Most importantly, while the Royal Never Give Up's Caitlyn entered a long period of weakness in the mid-game, Xu Jing's Ezreal was about to have his Manamune fully stacked!
……

"Ugh, let's team fight. I feel like we can't find any opportunities to pick off isolated targets."

Once again, they took the initiative to attack, hoping to secure a kill while Gragas' Flash was on cooldown, but they were ambushed and thoroughly defeated by NXG's jungler and support. Not only were they severely damaged, but they also lost their Flash in the river. Waiter tugged at his hair and offered a suggestion.

Lucky: "Little Dragon, hurry up and finish!"

Godlike: "We have to fight. Their weapons and equipment are getting better and better, and we can't keep up with them."

"Everyone, put your eyes on me, I can't manage this all by myself." Tabe felt overwhelmed. Even though he had the Prophet's Potion on his head, he still felt like NXG's vision was never completely cleared.

"Alright, be careful to protect the puppy. We have a longer reach, so let's wear it down first."

Someone said that, and the team voice chat suddenly went silent.

Um, we have longer arms here...

No buddy, are you serious?
Whether it's the mid-lane Gragas or the bot-lane Ezreal and Zyra, both players on the blue side have long range.

The policewoman's 650-yard attack range is completely insignificant.

"The dragon is about to spawn again. We can see that NXG's Olaf is already helping Zyra with vision control, while the mid laner Gragas is also moving towards the bottom half of the map."

“I think many of NXG’s strategies are worth learning in the game,” Su Xiaoyan suddenly said. “Like now, when setting up vision, with the help of the jungler or other teammates, the support’s safety level will be much higher.”

"And what else? You have to admire NXG's control over ward placement. First of all, Royal Club's own blue buff area, no matter which direction they gather from, they will be seen."

Miller, on the other hand, focused on NXG's vision control capabilities. "The jungler and support each had a Prophet's Potion, and all the wards left by Janna were cleared. If this weren't a League of Legends match, I would almost suspect that JM was leading a Minesweeper pro team!"

[Pfft, what the hell is this Minesweeper team?]

[That's quite apt. NXG's jungler and support duo are like they're using cheat codes; they can even find the vision Royal left behind in the dragon pit wall.]

[No, I have to leave a message on the TGA forum. If NXG wins, I'll ask the host about it during the post-match interview.]

With 30 seconds left before the jungle monsters respawn, both teams' heroes were slowly converging on the location of the dragon.

In the game, Royal Club faces a completely dark lower jungle area.

So, from the perspective of viewers with God's eye, on one side is the NXG, who are strolling leisurely and know exactly what the enemy is doing, while on the other side is the Royal Family, who are cautiously exploring every bush.

The difference between the two sides is obvious!
However, the next second, all the audience members, including the royal family members themselves, understood why they had to explore step by step.

Snapped!
A crisp striking sound rang in my ears.

A beam of icy blue light struck the Royal Jungle Spider, and the Spider Queen's health bar in human form visibly dropped by a quarter.

"hiss!"

"What the hell?"

"Is EZ's Mystic Shot really that powerful?"

"It wasn't any equipment he provided!"

Spider-Man, who almost got pregnant from being hit by Q, gasped. After finally squeezing into the river and clicking on EZ's portrait, he frowned as he looked at the two ice-blue items in the opponent's inventory.

"Mana Slayer, Radiant Light!"

The small wooden hammer in the second item doesn't need to be repeated.

Tabe thought for a second and then suddenly realized, "The enemy EZ is probably going to build Manamune and Trinity Force!"

"I know about the Trinity Force and Bloodthirster EZ build, but does the Manamune and Trinity Force EZ deal any damage?"

"No, you're asking me? How am I supposed to ask a dog about AD stuff..."

puppy!

Why isn't the puppy talking?

Spider-Man and Waiter were puzzled, but then they saw that after the ice-blue light bullet hit the policewoman again in the same way, a wooden barrel flew out from the grass by the river and smashed straight into the middle of the heroes.

boom!
With just over one and a half pieces of the [Explosive Barrel], the damage was off the charts, and Caitlyn's health dropped drastically.

That's not all. Following the exploding barrels, Xu Jing's Glacial Warrior skin EZ unleashed a barrage of azure energy projectiles.

laugh!
Whoosh! Ah! Ah!
Gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd.

"what!"

"What kind of damage is this?!"

"Gragas hits one, Ezreal hits one, and Caitlyn is left with almost no health."

Miller couldn't believe his eyes. "If the barrier hadn't absorbed some of the damage, the policewoman would probably have died on the spot."

"Xiaolong can't compete. The policewoman is badly injured, and the other members of Royal Club are also affected by the AOE of the barrel."

"Another Q! EZ's cooldowns feel incredibly short with this build, and the damage is also so high."

At this point, excellent skills combined with thorough preparation become especially important.

When Miller scratched his head in confusion, Su Xiaoyan explained to the camera, "Sorry's build is different from the traditional Infinity Edge and Blade of the Ruined King. Manamune has an additional skill damage effect, and Sheen can also provide a physical damage attack effect of 100% of the base attack power after casting a skill. The combination of these two makes EZ's damage look terrifying."

"Well said."

"She truly deserves to be called a renowned talented woman in the LPL commentary world."

Jiang Ming nodded. The combined single-target skill damage amplification effects of Manamune and Sheen perfectly suit Ezreal's attributes. In addition, Ezreal's Q skill has an extremely short cooldown, allowing him to trigger the item's passive more frequently than Jayce, resulting in exaggerated damage.

Of course, the most important point is that Su Xiaoyan didn't mention it, or rather, her understanding of the game hasn't reached that level yet.

The key advantage of the Manamune and Sheen set for Ezreal is that the equipment is inexpensive.

The two-piece set takes much longer to complete than either Infinity Edge or Trinity Force.

In addition, in the early versions, there was no cooldown for stacking Manamune and Tear of the Goddess. As long as your skills were off cooldown, you could stack them up effortlessly. Imagine how ridiculously powerful an Ezreal would be if he could get Manamune in 15 minutes.

Back in the game.

Royal Club did not want to give up the chance to contest this dragon, or rather, one of the few opportunities in the mid-game to engage in a head-on team fight with NXG.

Because if they drag this on any longer, they will be facing an invincible weapon.

"The mid lane minions are coming. I have Bloodthirster, I'll go heal them. They're down two ultimates, we can fight them," UZI signaled in the mid lane.

"Okay, puppy, be careful." Tabe didn't have a better idea at the moment, so he controlled Janna to fight back and pull her teammates from both sides, trying to buy more time for the AD.

The policewoman's movements were observed by the NXG team.

Xu Jing was furious. "Is it because you look down on me? You dare to go out and cause trouble with such a small amount of blood?"

"Eat my secret shooting technique!"

It was just a casual thing to do. Xu Jing, who was standing in the grass, originally just wanted to step out and drive away the policewoman who wanted to leech off the soldiers. He casually placed a Q into the pile of soldiers.

Unexpectedly, the artillery vehicle on the central route suddenly fired a heavy shot, killing the melee soldier in front of the policewoman.

This caused the energy blast, which should have hit the minions, to pass through the minions and head straight for Caitlyn.
