LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 489 Just bear with it and it will pass.

With such distinct styles, both sides will undoubtedly showcase their strengths and abilities during the match, making this contest sure to be exciting and entertaining.

Wang Duoduo couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation, and raised his voice to say, "Alright, the draft phase for both sides is over. Let's summarize the lineups for both sides."

"The blue team, China, consists of a top laner Cho'Gath, a jungler Trundle, a mid laner Yasuo, and a bot lane duo of Swain and Thresh."

"The red team is the South Korean representative team, with Camille in the top lane, Lee Sin in the jungle, LeBlanc in the mid lane, and Ezreal and Shen in the bot lane."

"The match is about to begin. Let's look forward to their performance and see which side will take the lead in this highly anticipated battle."

The words fell.

The screen at the scene did not enter Summoner's Rift quickly as Wang Duoduo usually predicted; instead, it remained frozen for five minutes.

For the next five minutes, both sides were still on the loading screen, preparing to enter the game.

Forehead…

It was obvious that there was a problem with the network, but Wang Duoduo couldn't say much about it. He could only try to cover it up by increasing the amount of analysis so as not to interrupt the game.

Fortunately, five minutes later, both sides managed to quickly enter Summoner's Rift.

In order to avoid small-scale team fights in the early stages, the Chinese team chose to start with a standard long, straight formation to effectively control every corner of the jungle and prevent invasions.

The South Korean team, naturally, hopes to find something positive to do in level 1.

Therefore, apart from LeBlanc and Lee Sin setting up vision control at their respective locations, the other three adopted a group-based invasion strategy, which meant that one person would invade while the other two would provide support from the outside.

At the entrance to the river jungle in the mid lane, Camille and Ezreal were lying in ambush in the bushes, while Corejj's Shen took a different approach, using his E skill [Shadow Bind] from the dragon pit to climb the wall and quietly arrive in the bushes behind the blue team's red monster.

Thinking of an opponent who might enter the river from this position, Tianye, who is currently lingering in the F6 area, is the most likely target to be caught.

Originally, Tianye hadn't thought much about it and was planning to go straight to the river mouth to check the situation, but Lin Ruo reminded him by emphasizing the location of the triangular grass behind the red monster in the voice command.

When they were with EDG, the team had previously done specific level 1 invasion and counter-defense strategies. When facing supports like Shen, the most important thing to guard against is the possibility that he might use his E skill to get over walls.

This makes it easy to catch someone off guard.

If Shen is indeed in the bushes behind the Red Monster, then as long as there are at least two Korean players lurking around to provide support, Tianye knows that if he rashly goes over, he will most likely give up first blood.

Out of caution, the field, which they had just been preparing to move forward in, immediately returned to its state of constant hesitation and uncertainty.

Meanwhile, Lin Ruo was controlling the troll and had already arrived in the lower jungle area, passing through the bushes next to the F6 camp and heading towards the red monster.

Shen was hidden in the grass behind the Red Monster, and Lin Ruo made a very confident judgment.

The reason is simple: Uzi didn't find a single living person in the bottom lane.

This could be explained by the fact that the Korean team's duo was positioned further back, but it's quite strange that GimGoon didn't spot Camille in the top lane's tri-bush.

The red team's top laner's usual starting position is almost deserted. Doesn't this allow the opponent to freely invade the jungle and bully their jungler? Then the Lee Sin's lingering in the mid-lane river is all for nothing.

If a top laner doesn't stand in the tri-bush at the start of the game, people who don't know the situation might think they have a grudge against their own jungler.

Lin Ruo thought for a moment. Kiin and Score didn't have any animosity, so he could deduce that Camille had come to the bottom jungle. The only way to get momentum going was to call on Shen to take the initiative and find an opportunity.

Therefore, after briefly encountering the Blind Monk in the upper river area but not seeing Camille, Lin Ruo turned around and moved towards the lower half of the map.

At this moment, Kiin saw that Thresh was being quite cautious and had actually given up on invading in order to return to his lane. Instead, he retreated to the jungle and planned to return to the top lane.

Little did he know that as he approached his own tower area, the river had already stirred upon hearing the noise.

Lin Ruo, who originally planned to start in the top lane, arrived in the bottom jungle without any pressure. Although this went against the actual temporary rhythm, it did not affect the fact that she could still start in the red buff.

But Camille can't farm minions in the bottom lane, so she has to obediently return to the top lane.

So Kiin has to leave.

After 1 minute and 10 seconds, it was determined that Camille would not be able to catch up with the top lane minions if she did not leave during this time, thus indicating that she had definitely left.

In the F6 area, the field finally took the initiative. Shen could control him, and he could of course control Shen as well. The difference was that...

Thresh's hook has a much longer range than Shen's dash.

Therefore, before Shen could use any control skills on him, Tianye had already taken the lead and stood within his skill range. At this point, it can be concluded with absolute certainty that as long as Shen was still in the bushes, he would definitely move to the forefront.

Only in this way can Thresh, who is moving slowly forward, be controlled as soon as possible, and then the field can accurately lock onto Shen's position.

The hook shot out and almost instantly locked onto Shen, who was still refusing to leave the bushes.

If you don't want to leave, then don't leave.

The next moment, Lin Ruo controlled the troll to swagger down from above, and when Thresh's second skill got close, a pincer attack was formed.

Corejj then realized that he had already fallen into his opponent's trap. Instead of waiting for his prey, he was about to become the new prey.

If the troll were to come up and bite him with his Q skill, it would be very difficult for him to escape after being heavily slowed down. Therefore, when he broke free from Thresh's control, Corejj used Flash to escape into the river and join Aiming in the bush.

They were the ones who were lying in ambush, but now they were all trying to escape together.

But that's not the biggest problem. The biggest problem seems to be that we can't escape it...

Just as he used Flash, CoreJJ was horrified to see a third person in the river. Besides him and Ezreal, Swain suddenly appeared.

Knowing that Shen had lost Flash, and that Ezreal with Teleport couldn't magically heal and speed up him, UZI, who had been called upon, naturally wouldn't just let Shen go so easily.

So, Flash followed by E skill [Never Go Back], throwing a demon hand in Shen's movement direction. The first hit will cause a brief control effect, and the second hit will pull the enemy back slightly in your direction.

Unfortunately, Corejj, who had just flashed to the ground, was accidentally hit by this skill.

He had just used Flash when the opponent flashed and used their skills to appear, leaving him completely panicked and unable to dodge. He could only watch helplessly as his body was controlled in place.

Pull and pull.

Shen's position was moved slightly back.

This allowed Lin Ruo, who was controlling the troll, to take advantage of the time delay and arrive in time, activating her Q skill [Sharp Teeth Bite] and biting him mercilessly.

That one bite sealed Shin's fate.

Kiin, who had just passed the first tower, looked back and it was a moment of profound loss. He couldn't believe that his brother, who had been so close to him just moments before, was now gone forever. The Korean team paid a heavy price for their supposedly clever invasion, a price that would surely bring tears to Score's eyes as he waited for the red monster to spawn in the jungle.

When you're standing in the wilderness, trouble comes knocking from the sky.

As for why, well, the troll took his head, isn't that like having a huge pot lid suddenly placed on your head? It's absolutely deadly.

Trolls are already quite strong in solo combat in the early game, and now that they've secured First Blood, Score is afraid that this blind man will be crippled in the future.

Don't forget, their lineup isn't suited for team fights, so you must create an advantage in the early game to increase your chances of winning team fights in the mid-game.

However, with the troll securing a kill, well, the hope of winning the mid-game team fights has inadvertently turned into a disheartening situation.

Ignoring what the opponent was thinking, Lin Ruo took the opportunity to engage in a 1v1 with the red monster in the lower jungle. After reaching level two, she immediately returned to base and used the first blood amount to buy a small item.

Clearing a jungle camp allows you to return to replenish your equipment, thus significantly reducing the pressure of farming.

Back in the upper half of the map, Lin Ruo quickly cleared all three groups of jungle monsters, then took down the river crab before invading, with the goal of taking down the red side's F6 camp.

There's no need to go to the bottom jungle; the river crab has most likely already been taken by Lee Sin, so there's no need to give it a second glance.

F6 might also need to be given.

In Lin Ruo's judgment, since the Lee Sin was going solo, he would definitely choose to go down to fight the blue monster for a double buff after taking the red monster, then eat the Gromp to quickly reach level three, and then go into the river to eat the so-called river crab.

This is the most conventional route. Asking Lee Sin to go and fight the F6 camp right after level 2 is pure torture. Therefore, Lin Ruo going to counter the still-existing F6 is the most cost-effective move.

After all, he had already returned to the city, so going back down would definitely mean he wouldn't be able to catch up with the warmth of his own jungle.

Score, whose intentions had already been guessed, was now plotting after taking the F6 camp, eager to use it as a route to attack the mid-lane champion.

Fortunately, Lin Ruo appeared in time and helped Yasuo push the wave, then strode towards the bottom jungle. Score was forced to run away and could only slink back to eat the three wolves he had left.

Lin Ruo went down to clear out the stone golems, and after completing the clearing of the entire jungle, he returned to town to replenish his equipment.

To his surprise, Score, still determined to make a comeback, reappeared from the bottom jungle on the mid lane, ready to arrest Xiaohu's Yasuo.

Xiao Hu, who believed he had not committed a crime, resisted fiercely.

Score originally intended to wait for LeBlanc to make the first move to lock down the enemy, and then he would emerge from the bush to make a second move to follow up. However, it is clear that Yasuo is still too agile in terms of using E to move around.

Theoretically, it would be quite difficult for a LeBlanc to link herself to Yasuo with a chain.

When ScoutW's Shadow Step skill lands, Xiaohu only needs to use a light E to pass through and use the displacement to pull away.

When the chain comes out, a single wind wall can easily solve the problem.

This means that all of LeBlanc's moves are completely ineffective against Yasuo.

Seeing this, Score had no choice but to take the initiative, and the good news was that he got Q.

The bad news is that Xiaohu didn't treat Flash as a family heirloom. He always kept Lin Ruo's instructions in mind: staying calm was the key to success. So, the next second, he Flashed to retreat under the tower, and the Lee Sin who followed with his second Flash also entered the tower.

The end result was that Score, who failed to land a single auto-attack on Yasuo, instead took damage from the turret and was chased down and hit with a combo, losing half of his health.

However, at least he managed to force the enemy to dodge, so Score considered it a successful gank.

However, little did he know that Lin Ruo, who had just emerged from the fountain, had already led Tianye Thresh towards the Ueno area.

After pinging the area where the red team's stone beetle was located, Lin Ruo's next target was this area.

Lee Sin has already returned to the upper jungle. At this point, there are only two things he can do: either recall or go up to clear the remaining Krugs before recalling.

Regardless of which option Score chooses, Lin Ruo, who is already on her way with Thresh, has a clear idea of ​​what to expect.

If the Lee Sin recalls, then the three of them will dive the tower and start a tempo.

If the blind monk doesn't return to base, then kill him together.

"Going to roam at level 4 already..." UZI, who was still solo ganking in the bottom lane, witnessed firsthand EDG's jungle-support synergy. The support was already following the jungler to another lane at only level 4, which was quite exaggerated.

Luckily, it's a crow, so it can get by.

If it were any other UZI, they would probably have to curse in the voice chat and play on their phone under the tower to vent their anger.

When the camera switched to the top lane, UZI saw that Trundle was already chasing Lee Sin, and Score, with only half health, couldn't withstand it.

Not only were they forced to the second tower, but the half-destroyed Golem was also handed over to the Troll to replenish its strength.

The following Thresh from the field directly cut off the minion wave in the vacuum between the two towers, leaving Kiin's Camille completely isolated under the tower.

"Why is Thresh in the top lane so early?" Kiin was both frightened and shocked.

That's such a great team!

However, upon further reflection, Kiin realized that his opponent's game strategy was far too clear.

By taking advantage of Lee Sin losing half his health in the mid lane, the team immediately launched a dive, firmly seizing Score's predicament.

It also takes into account that Shen's roaming will not really take off until level six. At that time, there will already be a gap in strength in small-scale team fights, and with poor support, it is inevitable that he will not be able to withstand the pressure.

Therefore, this five-minute attack on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River was indeed the best opportunity for the Chinese team to establish an advantage; there were few opportunities afterward.

After all, in a five-player team battle, it depends on whether the other team wants to fight you or not, but in a 2v2 or 3v3 battle, it's easy to start a fight anytime, anywhere in various ways.

Let's say I dive your bottom lane, will you come or not? If you don't come, it's a team fight with more people than you. If you do come, it's a small-scale team fight. The Korean team can always initiate a fight.

Given this situation, if the Chinese team can avoid the opponent's five-minute surge, they will likely find themselves in a dilemma since they haven't gained an advantage.

Kiin had thought it through very clearly, but the actual situation left him no choice but to agree.

The fact is that against the Chinese trio, each with their own control or deceleration skills, Kiin would have no chance of escape, even if he had wings.

After mastering the skills, Kiin moved with more confidence than anyone else.

Just shake it off and it'll be fine.
