You've only been playing for half a year, and you've already reached the finals?

Chapter 306 A Long-Awaited Victory!
Anyone with eyes can see that at this point in the competition, the outcome is pretty much a foregone conclusion.

The two teams displayed completely different levels of skill and tactics during the match.

BLG had the Karlie-Karrenbya combo and even got off to a perfect start with a tower dive, but they couldn't capitalize on it.

Now that the rhythm has been disrupted, victory has become an even bigger pipe dream.

"Even after eliminating icon, EDG's rhythm is still excellent!"

Looking at the situation, Colonel Guan said, "In that case, EDG has a chance to move the Rift Herald directly! Flandre is already moving towards the Rift Herald!"

EDG's window of opportunity to engage the vanguard is actually not very large, after all, the respawn time is not long, and the Ice Maiden has already used her TP once because she died once at the beginning of the game, and now it is on cooldown.

If BLG's bot lane duo arrives at the front and Crystal Maiden respawns and teleports over, EDG will not be in a position to engage in a skirmish.

Therefore, this pioneering pace requires extremely clear thinking and execution, and the speed must be fast!
EDG's rhythm is something that all teams need to learn.

Ming Jing's purpose in this wave of Yuezhong was to be the vanguard, so he couldn't hesitate at all; in fact, he had made arrangements in advance.

Because Mingjing had previously killed Bin in the top lane, causing him to lose a significant amount of lane gold, Flandre has now successfully taken control of the lane.

The moment the icon was killed, Flandre had already arrived at the Dragon Pit and activated the Vanguard immediately!
Little Gnar's percentage-based damage is quite fast.

On BLG's side, seeing that Flandre had disappeared from the top lane, everyone was under immense pressure.

The duo's pace was already quite fast; they had already returned to base and were heading towards the upper half of the map.

But judging from the Vanguard's health, it's clear that the two of them are too late.

If the two players go to the top side of the map and still haven't gotten the Rift Herald, then that's a real huge loss, as the bottom lane will lose lane lane and turret plating.

“Then we’ll head back.” Liu Qingsong said directly, “Without the mid laner, we can’t take the vanguard.”

BLG's voice channel fell silent briefly after Liu Qingsong's words.

Then Weiwei nodded, "Okay, you guys go back, I'll try to steal it."

Weiwei and Bin teamed up and wanted to try to steal the dragon.

However, Flandre was enraged during the battle with Vanguard. The small team of Gnar was too powerful, and the two of them did not dare to get close. They could only watch as Jessie used Smite to take down Vanguard.

Although Doggo didn't say a word the whole time, he still sighed inwardly as he watched Vanguard fall into enemy hands.

BLG's previous deaths were just minor setbacks. After all, no matter what they said, their rhythm was still maintained, and they were still controlling the dragons.

Losing the vanguard this time would be a real blow.

For lineups that need to snowball in the bottom lane to drive the tempo, this wave of Rift Herald and first tower is crucial!

Now that the Vanguard hasn't been secured, the first tower is likely out of reach, meaning Kalista won't be able to snowball her advantage.

Although Kalista's support from Renata makes up for some of her weaknesses, she still has considerable combat power even in the mid-to-late game.

However, without an economic advantage, he is clearly no match for Lucian with Nami's support, and at the very least, he doesn't qualify to stand in the mid lane.

In the early to mid-game, the AD carry of a professional team is stronger if they can hold their lane well; damage output in fights is irrelevant.

What kind of damage can a marksman deal in the early to mid-game?

BLG's lineup is strong in split pushing with Lissandra and Fiora, but if Kalista can't hold the mid lane, EDG can freely coordinate ganks on the side lanes, which will greatly limit the performance of both of them.

This situation was inevitable.

Ming Jing had already made some predictions about the situation ahead, and he was now thinking about what to do next.

For a team like BLG, which has only been formed for less than a year, both individual skills and teamwork are quite shallow; in Mingjing's view, they are just a blank sheet of paper.

After securing the Rift Herald, EDG switched lanes, and the duo pushed the top lane, easily taking down the already low-health top lane tower with the help of the Rift Herald.

Despite Viper's disastrous start, his teammates were incredibly strong, either helping him dive towers to secure plating or giving him a first tower bounty, making it difficult for him to collapse!

After recalling to base, Viper bought Windfury and headed to the mid lane, looking completely relaxed.

Viper + Luna + Gale Force = invincible in the mid lane, this is a well-known fact, even against T1DK, let alone BLG.

Shortly after the game was released, Viper seized a rare opportunity, using E to instantly cleanse and remove Lenata's Q, then firing both guns in quick succession, filling the water orbs and Conqueror, forcing Lenata to use Flash in one go!
Liu Qingsong was not only hit by Flash, but also severely damaged, and forced to return to base to replenish supplies. Doggo also had to call the jungler to come to the mid lane to ensure the health of the mid tower.

With this pull and tug, EDG had the opportunity to grab the side lane.

As for the target, it's crystal clear: it's still the Ice Maiden.

With Vi and Ahri's chasing abilities, catching a lone enemy on the side lane is incredibly easy.

Even though the Ice Maiden was AFK under the tower and ran all the way to the second tower, Vi and Ahri still managed to catch up and kill her under the second tower.

After killing the enemy, Ming Jing still had two ultimate abilities in hand. He even covered the rear for a while, and after Jie Jie created some distance, he used W to accelerate and then used two R abilities to easily escape.

The jungler and support from BLG could only watch helplessly as the two walked away.

However, the two players' support caused the mid lane to fall further, allowing Viper to seize the opportunity and take a huge swipe of mid lane plating!
BLG ran back and forth, but failed to save the person and also failed to protect the plating, resulting in a double loss.

Viper felt a sense of satisfaction as he watched the gold coins flow into his pocket.

It's back, it's all back!

Even if Viper had never watched Shaolin Soccer, he could still make similar remarks.

This is what it feels like to play AD for EDG!

You don't have to do anything, and the economy automatically feeds you!
Viper is now the standard second-in-command AD carry. If you feed him resources and let him carry, he will do it without hesitation and do it better than anyone else.

If you ask him to play a four-protect-one strategy, to fight the situation and lead the team, he really can't do that.

After playing for EDG for a year, his ability to lead the team has completely deteriorated.

It can only be said that EDG is the real EDG when Ming Jing is there.

In the blink of an eye, twelve minutes had passed, and the second dragon spawned.

BLG is on high alert and determined to turn the tide through this team fight!
Everything was going in the direction BLG had envisioned. EDG's two carries and jungler arrived at the bottom river, and it looked like a team fight was about to begin.

But who could have imagined that, in the blink of an eye, Mingjing's fox had already appeared on the top road.

The fox's ultimate ability had barely been ready when the rhythm resumed, and with a series of surprise attacks, she sent Bin back to the fountain!

"BLG has secured the dragon again!" Guan Daxiao exclaimed loudly, "But the price is Bin's resurrection and the collapse of the top lane's second turret!" "The gold difference between the two sides has now widened to four thousand! For BLG, their primary task may not be the dragon soul, but rather ensuring that the gold gap doesn't widen further!"

People in BLG don't see the economic gap, but they know the situation is quite dire.

The most obvious example is the number of levels in the fox's killing ring.

After roaming around catching people, the fox's killing ring had reached level seven.

Furthermore, after returning to the city, this murder ring had officially evolved into a murder book.

The fox with the Eternal Frost Killer Book in just 13 minutes is absolutely terrifying.

But what can they do?

They weren't just passively taking hits; they were trying to find their rhythm, but their execution and ability to pick off opponents were far inferior.

At 14 minutes, just before the second Herald spawned, BLG finally seized an opportunity. With the continuous crowd control from Crystal Maiden and Monkey King, they went to the top lane to catch Flandre, who had pushed too far into the lane, and took control of the soon-to-spawn second Herald.

This was a pretty good opportunity, helping the team gain at least 1000 gold.

However, EDG's counterattack was even more fierce. Taking advantage of the gap when BLG controlled the Rift Herald, the mid and bot lanes pushed forward together and easily destroyed the mid and bot lane towers. Not only did they not lose any gold, they might even have made a profit.

In the blink of an eye, 24 minutes had passed.

The fourth dragon slowly descended into the dragon pit.

"At this moment, BLG already has three dragons in hand, and is only one step away from the final Fire Dragon Soul!"

"But can they really secure that dragon? I don't think EDG will give them that chance!"

At this point, it's clear that EDG's economic lead has reached an astonishing 10,000.

Is the benefit from three dragons greater, or the benefit from a 10,000 economic difference? Anyone who has played the game would have no doubt about that.

Before you collect enough Dragon Souls, the attribute boosts from the little dragon are negligible.

Ming Jing said before the match that EDG would not engage in evenly matched team fights. When EDG decided to engage, it would be when their advantage was so great that it was about to end the game.

And right now, it's clearly the perfect moment.

BLG also seemed to be going all in, with their players not even bothering to contest the mid lane, but instead directly taking control of the dragon pit, clearly betting everything on this dragon.

This decision wasn't exactly smart; Mingjing could have easily abandoned the Fire Dragon Soul and directed the team to focus fire on the Great Dragon.

With Vi, Gnar, and Lucian as three physical damage dealers, the team's dragon-slaying speed is actually not slow.

However, Mingjing did not choose to do that. Instead, he dealt with the mid lane minions and went directly to the bottom river to engage in a head-on confrontation!

There's no other reason than that EDG had absolutely no chance of losing this team fight.

If the mid-lane minion wave is pushed forward, the game will end immediately once the team fight is won!

At the moment when Xiaolong was low on health, Flandre Gnar took the lead and flipped into the fray!

On BLG's side, jungler Weiwei, seeing the low-health Fire Dragon, could only focus all his attention on the dragon's health bar.

With the help of the monkey's Q-smite, he successfully took down the Fire Dragon and helped the team obtain the Fire Dragon Soul.

But the price was that Gnar transformed into a giant beast in mid-air and unleashed a powerful attack, pushing him directly against the wall at the edge of the dragon pit!
At the same time, Meiko Nami used her ultimate skill, Wave, to rush towards BLG's front, preventing BLG's support, and at the same time threw a water bubble at Wukong to continue the control!

EDGC quickly followed up and almost instantly wiped out the monkey's health bar with three pieces of warrior gear!
Although Liu Qingsong and Lienata provided timely assistance, they were unable to help the monkey survive.

"Weiwei got instantly killed!" Guan Daxiao's voice was quite loud. "Although BLG secured the Infernal Dragon, the situation seems a bit unfavorable!"

Even if the situation is dire, we have no choice but to grit our teeth and fight.

Once the monkey entered the gray-health state, it had little room to maneuver and could only flash into the EDG crowd with its E skill, unleashing its ultimate ability, "Havoc in Heaven," to contribute its last bit of life.

Taking this opportunity, Liu Qingsong used his R-flash to move forward and unleashed his ultimate skill, [Malicious Acquisition], forward.

Lena's ultimate ability is significantly more advanced than similar crowd control abilities like Nami's and Sona's.

Not only is it a wide-area control ability, but it can also make enemies attack each other. As long as it hits the ADC, it can deal tons of damage and even reduce the number of enemy units!
Fortunately, EDG's two carries were in good form and had their skills ready. Mingjing used his ultimate and Viper used his Whirlwind to dodge the R.

Immediately afterwards, Mingjing used another RE flash, and Ahri used two dashes in succession. Charm Heart followed by Flash was used at the same time, and E was used to accurately kiss the forward-flashing Lena!
In that instant, another golden light flashed, and Icon's Ice Maiden also flashed forward, seemingly trying to seize the opportunity when Ming Jing entered the fray and use her ultimate to hold him in place.

But Mingjing showed no hesitation. After kissing the enemy, he didn't even press QW. He directly used his last R to create distance!

Leng Shao's long-awaited arrow actually hit empty air.

Mingjing has a fairly deep understanding of the new version of the fox.

The fox in the past was a true mage assassin. She had everything an assassin needed: control, high burst damage, and agility. She was also a rare long-range assassin.

The only downside is its limited burst damage, often leaving the user with only a sliver of health.

However, after the durability patch, Ahri was also slightly reworked. The damage increase effect of her E skill was removed, and her overall damage was slightly reduced. As a result, this champion directly lost her previous ability to instantly kill.

However, the new mechanism that increases the number of stacks of her ultimate ability makes Ahri more flexible, transforming her from a mage assassin to a traditional mage.

This is also one of the important reasons why Ming Jing gave up electrocution and chose Ai Li.

If we consider Ahri as a traditional mage, utilizing her ultimate's multiple dashes and her smaller skills' short cooldowns for sustained damage, then Ahri is actually not bad at all.

This move perfectly embodies Mingjing's thinking.

If it's the assassin fox, Mingjing definitely won't run away after entering the field; he'll unleash a full combo and wipe out the opponent.

However, if it's a mage fox, Mingjing won't hesitate at all. After casting the control spell, he'll immediately run away, leaving the rest to his teammates!

Doggo's Kalista quickly used her ultimate to pull the support Lena into the trap, but she herself was immediately caught in the crossfire as Vi used her ultimate to lock her head in!
At this point, the situation on the field was five against four. Lena was still a half-useless person without her ultimate and resurrection. Even if all three of BLG's carries survived, they had no room to maneuver. They could be killed by simply pouring in damage!

EDG swarmed in and instantly killed Doggo's Kalista, then turned their attention to Crystal Maiden.

With each BLG member who dies, Mingjing gains an extra ultimate skill, and his Mejai's Soulstealer scroll flips through several pages, making him stronger with each battle!
Boulders and bullets flew together, foxfire and jewels were of the same color, Bin's Fiora gave her all, and in a rare collaboration with icon's Lissandra's ultimate, she killed a Vi. In the blink of an eye, the fox's charm kissed her face again, and she happily sent him away!

"ACE!"

The sound of a team wipe echoed throughout the stadium. Without any hesitation, the remaining four members of EDG quickly switched their focus to the mid lane and began their push using the minion wave that had already reached the high ground!
"Nearly forty seconds of respawn time!" Colonel Guan announced loudly, "There's no suspense anymore! Let's congratulate EDG! A resounding victory, a long-awaited triumph!"
