My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 419 has no actions involved, it's all about numbers!
"Why does it feel like V5's carry players are building strange items this game?"

"Indeed, these equipment builds all seem to be new research."

As the game progressed...

The two commentators' attention was finally drawn to the equipment in V5's equipment slot.

It's one thing for Darius to be a top laner with the shipbreaker, but Lucian went straight for a blue buff and then a Duskblade. And Lillia in the jungle started with a small mask and immediately switched to Radiance and Medusa.

This item build.

Even the four coaches of WBG were scratching their heads looking at the lineup, let alone the WBG players on the field. They simply couldn't figure out where V5's power spike was.

It's not right to go up, and it's not right not to go up.

[Wow, everyone's doing research?]

As expected, WBG has activated the second phase of V5.

I really like a quote from director Jiang Wen: "If he's dignified, let him be dignified; if he's not dignified, then help him be dignified (doge)."

[Even four coaches couldn't suppress V5's research and development; it just goes to show that Mebius's value is still rising.]

To be honest, if top laners start building Twilight Shroud and junglers start building Radiance, and if the top and jungle are tanks, and then the AD carries also build Knight's Edge, isn't this just a repeat of Season 7?

With Luo Ji's creation of the shipbreaker.

Just when he was starting to make progress in the top lane, he was targeted again by Sofm and Xiaohu.

Another encirclement and suppression campaign was launched.

Looking at his 0/3 score and the black screen, he could only smile helplessly, then picked up his water glass and took a sip.

In the eyes of outsiders.

He was undoubtedly caught out badly this time, even in front of the "i" series development master, developing the "i" series, which was a lot of fun.

But I don’t know why.

Si Shao, however, vaguely sensed something was wrong, and this feeling was growing stronger.

"WBG was outmaneuvered."

In the lounge.

Nofe, seeing Weiwei's eager expression, began to explain the strategy for this round to him, word by word:

"From the very beginning, Darius was a trap that was laid out."

"Because he has no mobility and uses TP instead of Flash and Ghost, this hero is very easy to catch, especially if Ornn is willing to use his ultimate."

"Then why bother choosing?"

"On the one hand, Ruler brought the first strike in this game, which led to a lack of damage in the early laning phase. However, because the top laner was acting as bait and Karsa was always in the bottom half of the map, WBG never had a proper chance to fight us in the bottom lane."

"So they didn't notice."

"As for the second?"

"That's the version of scientific research that's purely my dream coming true."

Here's a point that needs to be clarified.

The "First Strike" talent sacrifices early-game laning strength for a faster mid-game economy; you can't steal much money with it in the early game.

same.

Darius in the top lane plans to build Twilight Robe as his second item. This item is only worth 2300 gold, but it has attributes that are extremely cost-effective, and he can also benefit from the passive damage increase.

Equivalent to.

Darius's Shipbreaker (3000) + Twilight Robe (2300), you can get the two-piece set for 5300 gold.

The jungler's Demon Embrace (3000) to Radiant Virtue (2700) Lillia requires 5700 gold, but Lillia clears jungle camps quickly.

Lu Xian's two-piece set is a bit expensive, with Essence Drain (2900) + Duskblade (3200). It seems to be the most expensive one, but because of the First Strike talent, it can be prepared in advance.

Sacrifice Darius, but Darius's equipment is the cheapest.

Protect Lu Xian, and give Lu Xian the initiative to accelerate equipment.

When the three players from both the top and bottom lanes reached the two-piece set, at the same time, WBG players generally only had one piece of equipment, not enough gold to get a second piece.

Its core principle is similar to that of a milk tea shop.

Everyone knows that milk teas that cost ten or twenty yuan might use slightly better ingredients and taste better, but the problem is that Mixue is just too affordable. So affordable that the price alone kills the competition.

You mean playing dirty tricks like this?

V5 did nothing but perform normal champion selection and item builds.

But you're saying this thing isn't sinister?

Anyway, Weiwei felt a chill run down her spine after hearing this. Damn it, how could someone be so calculating towards their opponent during a match?!
too frightening.

even.

Luo Ji is still making CD shoes.

As the time approached 18 minutes and 30 seconds, Ornn hadn't even finished his second completed item yet, while Darius had already successfully crafted Twilight Robe.

After getting the two-piece set.

As always, Luo Ji began maneuvering his character to the sidelines and started showing off his buttocks.

"He's here again."

"Again? If they come again, we'll keep arresting them!"

When I saw Darius reappear on the side lane, and specifically in the bottom lane, even though I knew the enemy was showing off in the bottom lane because they were about to farm Baron, I knew they were just trying to get it.

But Sofm still decided to take him down.

Do not ask.

The answer is that he's currently out of control and can only bully the weak and fear the strong, picking on those who are easy to bully first.

"Eh!?"

Commentary seat.

Wang Song spotted the WBG marker on the minimap and suddenly exclaimed excitedly:

"WBG seems to be trying to gank Darius again."

"But Darius already has two items. Wait! How did he get two items? He's 0/3!"

"Twilight Robe?"

"Mebius forcibly purchased a complete outfit on Pinduoduo!"

Based on his skill level.

He had actually sensed something was amiss, but he figured that with Ornn accompanying Fryegor, it would be a two-on-one situation for WBG, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?
soon.

On the side lane, with Sofm Foygo in position and his teammates calling out the location of Casarilia in the upper half of the map, TheShy almost didn't hesitate at all and immediately used his ultimate "Healer".

Here they are! As professional players, TheShy and Sofm still maintain a basic level of synergy, with almost perfect control and coordination.

Although I didn't manage to land three Fragile, I managed to land two knockbacks and two Fragiles.

Simultaneously.

Sofm, playing jungle, went all out.

but.
"Can't be defeated?"

"How could the damage difference be so large?"

When both players used all their skills, Darius, who should have died instantly, still had a third of his health remaining.

The commentator was dumbfounded.

The WBG players were completely dumbfounded.

Even the viewers outside the live stream were stunned.

Even the four coaches in the WBG lounge were startled and stood up in shock.

Luo Ji was not surprised.

Compared to a one-piece set, a two-piece set brings about a qualitative change. When AW turns around and gives it to Foygo, it is a successful use of Q skill [Decisive Battle] followed by Flash.

"Shh!"

Sofm was already consciously retreating, but he didn't expect Luo Ji to be so decisive. When he saw Darius use Q-Flash and successfully hit him, he subconsciously flashed again.

unfortunately
It's too late.

The talent [Phase Rush] was successfully triggered.

The enemy is slowed down by W, while our side is accelerated by phase. According to the principle of relativity in the Rift, Luo Ji has essentially deployed a substitute [World]. During the duration of [World], the enemy's movement speed is so slow that they are almost stationary.

Even though Sofm's emotional control is exceptionally good.

at this moment.

It was inevitable that a major breach would occur, and the frantic clicking of the mouse in an attempt to get away from Darius was almost like a silent cry:

"You dead leg, move now!!!"

Accelerate to catch up.

Basic Attack (A) and Skill Element (E) [Ruthless Iron Hand]

Blood Rage is triggered.

As the final basic attack landed, the ultimate ability, Noxus Guillotine, propelled the user high into the air!

V5_Mebius killed WBG_Sofm
No operations, just values!
After successfully killing the Blade of the Ruined King, even a low-health Darius is not someone TheShy's Ornn can quickly deal with.

What made WBG even more desperate was what happened next.

As kill notifications appeared in the bottom lane, V5's main force of four was already approaching Baron Nashor.

and.

Because Luo Ji had timed his lane pushing perfectly after building his items, TheShy is now in a dilemma.

Continuing to chase Darius in the bottom lane might not guarantee a kill, and even if you do, it will waste a lot of time.

If you stay in the bottom lane...

The moment Baron refreshes, a V5 player can decisively engage Baron head-on.

But go up.
What will Darius do in the bot lane then?
Putting aside everything else, Darius the Destroyer can definitely take down the second tower of his lane quickly.

Caught between the Baron and the defensive tower.

finally.

TheShy still chose to go top lane. After V5 tentatively opened fire, he immediately used Teleport to fly to the top lane to protect the Rift Herald.

Bottom lane.

Seeing that the top laner and jungler who came to gank him had died and left, Luo Ji continued to split push the bottom second tower in front of him. By the time Sofm revived and walked down the high ground, Darius was already out of sight.

【Ohhhh~】

[A Darius with 0/3 score managed to 1v2, kill one, and force the other to run away? How could I have such a dream?]

【You're right, but that's Darius for you. He has hard crowd control, healing, true damage, and his ultimate can be refreshed. And then there's Bloodrage... ahhhhhh!】

[Operation? Values!]

"Under what circumstances should we take the road?"

Seeing Darius, who was down 0/3, get killed by his own jungler, even someone as optimistic as Xiaohu could hardly keep his expression in check.

No.

Dude.

How could a 2v1 situation result in a counter-kill?

"He has two pieces of gear, and our damage output is a bit lacking, not quite enough."

"Huh? Wasn't he 0/3?"

It was only after a moment that Xiaohu noticed the equipment in the points section. It's not that they didn't care about the players' equipment, but rather that most of the time, their attention was focused on Lucian's equipment.

Who would pay attention to a top laner with a 0/3 score?

It's like someone telling you...

Although your navy has developed rapidly in recent years, you must be careful of the navy of neighboring Mongolia, because there are the Seven Warlords of the Sea there.

Really.

Bro, if you actually say that to people, you'll be laughed at.

"They're probably completely bewildered by now."

After securing a kill and taking down the second tower, Luo Ji returned home and, almost without thinking, immediately focused on getting plate armor to increase his movement speed.

"Who says otherwise? The ruler equipment is almost ready, isn't it?"

"Almost. The two-piece set only provides combat capability, but it greatly tests his output environment. It's best to wait for another artillery piece."

"Okay, then let's continue!"

Since the S12 World Championship, the 4-1 split push strategy has become rare in professional LOL matches. The key is that the "1" on the split push side must either distract the opponent or be able to return to the front, otherwise they are easily caught and forced to fight a 4v5 situation to secure Baron Nashor.

Or to be more precise: it clears lanes quickly, pushes towers quickly, has sustain, has movement speed, and is strong in 1v1 situations.
front.

Darius was definitely lacking.

But now, with the advantage of equipment combined with the hero's stats, they have successfully risen to prominence.

That.
The situation has reversed.
