I just turned eighteen, and you want me to make a comeback?

Chapter 195-Dark Horse Team vs. IM
The crab's vision lasts for one and a half minutes.

Once the river crab vision is gone, the opponent has probably returned to the city for supplies and placed a true eye, making it even more difficult to seize the opportunity.

On the contrary, the river vision and early protection provided by these two river crabs made Flash Wolves very comfortable.

They dared to fight freely in both the upper and lower lanes. After Yuan Shen placed a trinket eye at the entrance of the opponent's jungle area, he began to frequently press in to exchange blood.

Imp showed his ferocity and made full use of the policewoman's early strength. He kept suppressing people, as if he wanted to show himself as much as possible in front of Yuan Shen.

chain reaction.

"Tsk, it's a bit difficult for us to deal with things in the early stage." Xiaohu was shocked.

Their lineup has very strong fighting and support capabilities in small-scale team battles in the early stages, and they were selected for early-stage quick attacks.

The Flash Wolves lineup should wait until the equipment of Snake Lady and Policewoman is complete before joining the team.

Just as they were thinking this, something unexpected happened.

Lee Sin ran into Graves again, and in their jungle area!
"Why is he here?" Xiang Guo screamed and quickly retreated.

Can't fight.

The opposing Graves is already level 4, and because he gave up the previous river crab, Lee Sin still needs the experience of half a group of wild monsters to level up.

Level suppression, HP suppression, how can he fight?
A familiar scene appeared. Lee Sin was chased by Graves again and was forced to drive Xiang Guo out of his own jungle area.

"Is this guy mentally ill?" Xiang Guo repeatedly placed question marks on Graves, a look of bewilderment on his face. "After controlling two river crabs, he didn't farm his own jungle monsters and came to our jungle instead?"

Normally speaking, now that the lane is safe, Graves should just focus on farming.

Graves is a Carny type jungler who relies a lot on economy and level, so his own development is very important. The opponent's lineup, the mid and bottom double C also need to develop, isn't it good to get through the early stage smoothly?
But this male gunner actually chose to invade and cause trouble? ?

Isn't he afraid of being detected by our vision and then being surrounded by us? ?
Xiang Guo couldn't understand the opposing jungler's thinking. This gangster-like style was completely beyond his expectations.

It's exactly the same as Sofm. Is this still the Karsa he knows?
The consequences of being unprepared are disastrous.

Graves killed the wild monster that Lee Sin was halfway through killing and left happily.

Half a minute later, Graves, who was supposed to go back to his jungle to farm, suddenly ran to the bottom lane. With the help of Snake's Minotaur's Q, he dodged people and forcibly hit Uzi's health, forcing two flashes from the bottom lane of the opposite side.

Snake looked at the happy family of monsters in his own jungle. Even though he was used to Karsa protecting them, he felt a bit embarrassed and laughed: "You really don't want to farm the jungle?! You can finish the farm first and then come back. That way you can have a more comfortable rhythm."

"Grabbing after clearing the jungle is a perfect rhythm, and the risk is low. Even if you don't catch anyone, you won't lose anything."

Karsa shared his jungle strategy, "But the opponent will definitely think the same way. We all have similar understandings of the game. I clear the jungle first and then gank. If the opponent doesn't get confused and make mistakes, the success rate is too low."

"The level of professional players is getting higher and higher now. Everyone knows how to play at a comfortable rhythm. In this case, if you want to catch someone, you must catch them by surprise and play with the perfect rhythm..."

That is, counter-rhythm gank.

Snake protected Imp, pushed the lane, and pressed the recall button, a look of surprise on his face. "Okay, okay, your understanding is correct."

Xiaohu, who is usually calm, couldn't help but curse, saying that the game was too frustrating.

He had no strength to do anything, so he just watched the people across the street jumping up and down and tearing down their house.

On the scene, the economic gap has widened to eight thousand.

After all the outer towers fell, RNG's vision pressure on the dragon was very great.

They had already thought of the next move for Flash Wolves. They would first take the fourth dragon, then put pressure on Jayce alone. They would look for an opportunity to kill the dragon instantly. With the speed of Cassiopeia, Caitlyn, and Graves, ten seconds would be enough to kill the dragon!
Sure enough, Flash Wolves took down the little dragon and started moving on to the big dragon.

RNG decided to go all out and catch Jayce while the opponent was looking for vision of the dragon.

The tree flashed directly and left Jayce at the three wolves in the lower jungle area with WQ.

Yuan Shen fought and retreated, continuously stacking up layers of Black Cleaver and War Fervor.

Maokai is too fragile in front of Jayce. With the team economic advantage accumulated by Caitlyn's fast push and the personal difference in online last-hitting, Jayce is already almost one major item ahead of the opponent in terms of economy.

Calculate the kill line, suddenly take a breath of Ruined King, turn around and deal all the damage, turn on the super energy load and attack continuously, stand and attack without understanding, and kill the big tree on the spot.

At this time, the rest of RNG rushed to the battlefield. They had no idea that such a tanky frontline player like the tree would be killed by Jayce after just a short delay.
Seeing that Jayce was about to run away, the Dragon King used a long-range ultimate skill, trying to slow him down and hold him back. Yuan Shen flashed decisively, dodged the ultimate skill, and came to the blue buff.

But at this time, he realized that his retreat was indeed blocked by the blind monk.

Flash Wolves saw Lee Sin flanking from behind in the dragon pit's vision and blocked Jayce's retreat.

If Jayce continues to retreat, he will undoubtedly run into Lee Sin face to face, with no way to escape.
Just when everyone thought that Jace was doomed, Yuan Shen suddenly came up with an idea and turned and ran towards the Toad.

Switch to hammer form, use the E skill to knock the toad from the jungle to the bottom lane, place a ward, and leap into the sky, all in one go.

The corner of the wall at the blue buff will block your vision.

The blind monk who was following behind saw Jayce suddenly running towards the direction of Toad and hiding in the shadow of his field of vision.

When the blind monk turned his head and was about to collect the kill, he found that the person was gone.

“Where are the people?”

Xiang Guo looked confused and asked several question marks in succession.

Their brains were stuck for a moment, and it took them two seconds to guess how Jace escaped.

It's too late to chase after him now.

Jace had escaped.

This wave of spiritual escape filled the screens of all major live broadcast rooms with 666.

At the same time, Flash Wolves took down the Baron, widening the economic gap to nearly 10,000 and establishing their victory.

With an economic gap of nearly 10,000 and the lineup's advantage in the mid-to-late game, Flash Wolves can only be defeated if they make serious mistakes in succession and are wiped out by the opponent three times.

But the probability of this is almost zero.

Garbage time.

This is a sports term born in the basketball court. It refers to the situation in the NBA game in the United States where the score difference between the two sides is so great that the lagging side has no chance of catching up.

Now is also garbage time in the LOL game.

The five members of the Flash Wolves advanced together, carrying out the demolition work with great force.

Treant tried to start a team fight, but he had just rushed forward and in less than two seconds, his health bar melted.

Graves, Cassiopeia, Policewoman, and Jayce, with huge economic advantages, the output of these four heroes is explosive, and the hard damage directly kills Maokai.

After 38 minutes of game time, with an 8 to 1 kill ratio, RNG's base was destroyed by Flash Wolves in one wave, and they won 2 to 0 in a quick pass.

"Congratulations to Flash Wolves for winning this crucial match," Miller commented with a smile. "This burst wasn't a huge one, but a pure game of strategic operations. It was played beautifully, and they controlled the tempo of the game from start to finish."

"Yes." Ji De nodded and said with a smile: "Jayce in Ruined Black Cleaver, this equipment style is very novel, and the single-line ability is very strong. I feel that the Ryze and Jayce that Yuanshen picked today are likely to be popular in the arena for a while."

"The Edison of e-sports." Miller joked.

There were no setbacks during the handshake session.

Both sides were very friendly, and Uzi even gave them a warm hug.

"See you in the playoffs!" Seeing Uzi's unyielding look, Yuan Shen raised his eyebrows and agreed.

Whether it is EDG or RNG, it is obvious that they can advance to the playoffs, there is no doubt about that.

This time, CPL has four spots for the World Championship, and each team will be very strong.

After returning to the locker room, Flash Wolves summarized today's game.

No tactics were used in the first game. Only a very conventional lineup was chosen. The team was at a disadvantage in the early stage, but fortunately they managed to stabilize their development in the mid-term. Yuanshen's Ryze turned the situation around with an amazing performance and won a narrow victory.

But in the second game, both sides clearly showed some real stuff.

On one side is the fast attack system of Dragon King + Jhin, and on the other side is the fast push system of Policewoman.

The Flash Wolves had too little time to practice the new version, and the fast push of the policewoman was already one of the few tactical routines used by Yuan Shen and his team.

In this regard, RNG is the same, everyone lacks coordination.

However, this sudden change in Karsa's jungle style had an unexpected effect, confusing Xiang Guo and causing RNG's tactics to fail completely. They fell into a disadvantage in the early stages and were pushed 4-1 by Flash Wolves, and were almost killed by operations.

"Their coaching staff must be studying our new style of play right now." "Next time, when they're ready, things might not go so smoothly.

"Don't panic." Karsa said optimistically.
"Haven't we figured out their style?"

Yuan Shen nodded, agreeing: "It's normal to study each other. The next time we meet, we will be even stronger than we are now!"

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

They never doubted this.

There is not much time left until the end of the summer regular season.

The ranking in the regular season means the difficulty of the playoffs.

Therefore, without the encouragement and suggestions from the coaching staff, everyone took the initiative to enter the devil training mode and strive for the final journey of the summer season.

Seventeen hours a day, except for sleeping time, even the time for eating and drinking is spent on training. This devilish training mode has become a tradition of Flash Wolves.

Before every big competition, I basically have to do this to push myself to my limits.

Soon, it was the weekend of this week.

The Shanghai Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center was packed with people.

They all came for today's highlight.

Flash Wolves vs. IM.

One is a team that has won two world championships in a row.

One is EDG's second team, a dark horse team known as EDG Shadow.

The IM team is also a rare dark horse team when looking at major competition areas around the world.

Historically, this team took only one year to achieve the triple jump from LSPL to CPL, and then from CPL to the S Series World Finals, becoming the first team in all major leagues to achieve the triple jump, creating the history of the entire League of Legends.

IM, the full name of which is IMay, means "I can!" and is itself a dark horse that creates miracles.

Although it is a new team, the players are all veterans.

Top laner AmazingjJ, former EDG substitute top laner.

Mid laner Athena was formerly the substitute mid laner of EDG.

Support Road is the former EDG substitute support.

Jinjiao at the AD position and Ben4 at the jungle position are also new generation domestic players with outstanding performances.

The player configuration of IM team is not strong. There is not even a star player. They are all abandoned players and young players.

However, its record in the CPL region is exaggerated. Historically, in the 2016 Summer Playoffs, it defeated IG 2-3 and WE -, and was on par with RNG, but lost : to get third place.

In the bubble match, they defeated WE again with a score of 3:2 and won the third seed spot in S6.

Its resilience and strength stunned countless people.

The existence of the IM team was also one of the reasons why countless audience fans deified EDG and touted it as the favorite to win the championship.

Because the IM team's playing style is completely imitated from the big brother team, with a standard Guodian operating system on one hand and an invincible late-game team battle of Maokai + Sivir on the other, which makes countless people's scalps numb.

Even a team with second-rate players can become so strong after learning EDG's style of play, so it's natural for other teams to follow suit.

One of the biggest features of the Guodian operating system is the blue-collar pressure-resistant top laner.

Rather than focusing on the individual ability of the top laner, the team spirit of the top laner is more important, and this has become the standard for many teams to select top laners in the future.

In a sense, EDG's long-term dominance in the country has led many teams to learn its playing style, which has profoundly affected the lack of young players in the domestic top lane for a long time.

But, things are different now.

The emergence of Yuan Shen changed the style of CPL, and naturally, those influences also changed.

This IM team may not be able to achieve the same historical results in today's CPL.

When a team with dominant strength emerges in a region, it is inevitable that the overall strength of the region will increase.

The Catfish Effect

Especially CPL, it’s such a big pie, everyone wants to have a piece of the pie.

Last year, Gree promoted itself vigorously, but was overtaken by Flash Wolves when they won the championship.

Fortunately, the two major competition areas have been merged, and there is no distinction between you and me.

……

"Today's game was quite interesting."

The commentators responsible for today's game are still the most experienced and popular Wawa and Miller.

"Yes, today's game was very interesting."

Wawa smiled and said, "After beating EDG, IM is going to avenge their father's death. Speaking of which, IM, the dark horse team in the league right now, is not much weaker than EDG."

This game has attracted a lot of attention. IM's recent strong momentum and its stable operation system remind many people of EDG last spring. It is not an exaggeration to regard this IM as a replica of EDG.

With the third place in the league, the newly debuted IM ranks higher than many veteran teams.

Although teams like RNG, WE, Flash Wolves, EDG, etc. still have many games to play, this also shows that IM's strength is not weak.

The current IM reminds many people of last year's Snake Team and QG.

Same newcomer to CPL, same dark horse status.

Every year, new dark horse teams emerge, which makes more and more CPL players feel excited.
