I'm a platinum-level author, so what if I play professionally?

Chapter 83 is complete, everyone!

WE did not entirely fail to anticipate the disadvantage they would face in the early stages.

After all, Snake Team has always been able to play calmly and easily in the early stages of the game, but they always end up rushing and struggling in the mid-to-late stages.

The same was true in the previous game between the two sides.

Even though they were at a greater disadvantage in the early stages of the game, with almost the entire top lane collapsing, the stereotype of Snake still made WE feel that they had a chance.

In terms of teamwork and discipline, the Snake team can't be said to have done poorly, but it's fair to say they have almost none.

So 957 was hoping to find an opportunity to turn the tide and turn the tide.

However, the current Snake team no longer has 0 Emperor.

Under Wang Ke's clear and decisive leadership, WE couldn't find a single opportunity.

At this time, LPL teams all liked to do one thing: team fights.

Why engage in team fights? What's the point of participating in these team fights? Are all your summoner spells available? Will you get resources if you win the team fight? These are questions we don't consider.

If you dare to come, then I dare to accept.

Wang Ke does not agree with this style of play.

Of course, if there are five Song Wens in the team, that's a different story.

Because if you're in a team fight, you have to make skillful plays, and with skillful plays comes the risk of making mistakes.

Operation is a game of strategy. Once the game begins, there is a possibility of failure. To gain a greater chance of winning, you need to eliminate as many of your opponent's cards as possible before the game starts, rather than having the two sides face off against each other.

Especially now that Snake has established an advantage in the early game, he must ensure that every team fight is for the purpose of contesting resources, rather than simply for the sake of fighting.

Twelve minutes later, Wang Ke's Thresh suddenly reappeared in the top lane.

Although they couldn't kill the Tree of Life, they severely damaged it, forcing it to teleport back to farm the lane.

Thresh then recalled to base and immediately rotated to the bottom lane, calling over Ryze in the mid lane and Lee Sin in the jungle. They then launched a four-man gank on the bottom lane, which had been peaceful until now.

Snake Team's tower dive resulted in some coordination errors, which were beyond Wang Ke's control.

The pink-haired Lee Sin stayed under the tower, but fortunately, Alistar got the kill.

Meanwhile, Ryze and Sivir each secured kills on Jinx and Alistar, and then the two pushed down the bottom lane's first turret.

While the two were pushing the tower, Thresh had already arrived in the mid lane to set up vision and help the ADC hold the lane.

This allows Sivir to quickly clear the wave after recalling to base and logging back in.

Meanwhile, Rogue continued to push the bottom lane, putting immense pressure on LeBlanc's minion wave and preventing Xiye from having a chance to roam.

In fact, during this period, the Snake team had already launched three consecutive offensive rounds.

On the other hand, WE was passively waiting for a counterattack, but every time it was like hitting cotton, failing to seize any offensive opportunities.

As we all know, although League of Legends is a real-time combat game, it is essentially a turn-based game.

To give a simple example, in the top lane, once you reach level six first and have your ultimate ability, you have essentially gained control of the offensive phase. You can then use this ultimate ability and summoner spells to secure a solo kill against your lane opponent.

However, the enemy top laner then reaches level six and also gains his ultimate, while your skills are still on cooldown. Even if you have an economic advantage due to the solo kill, this round is still the enemy's offensive round. What you should consider is how to defend and stall for time to get your ultimate off cooldown, which means stalling for time to get through your defensive round.

However, applying this example to the entire game is not so simple.

Taking jungle heroes as an example, when you see your bot lane get a kill in lane, and you happen to be near the dragon pit, most people would probably call for the bot lane duo to come and take the dragon.

At this point, because of the death of the bottom laner, the enemy team is unable to engage in a team fight.

But was this little dragon a complete freebie?

Actually not.

A kill in the bottom lane gives your team a turn, but taking the dragon is essentially using that turn to do something, which wastes that turn.

Why do we say it's a drain? Because while you're fighting the dragon, the enemy bot lane duo is already back online after respawning, while your own bot lane duo is delayed in recalling because of fighting the dragon, so once they're back online, they'll most likely only be able to farm the pushed lane.

This is actually the opponent's turn. Because it's a pushback, the opponent's ADC can farm more safely, and at this time, the opponent's support can start moving and roaming to make plays.

Meanwhile, while your team is fighting the dragon, the enemy jungler won't be idle either. He'll either be farming jungle camps, ganking top lane, or at the very least, he'll invade your upper jungle to steal a few camps and establish vision.

This is why, given the current version's low cost-effectiveness of the dragon, virtually no teams choose to fight for it.

Perhaps to the average viewer, taking down a dragon doesn't take much time, and since the bottom lane has already secured a kill and gained an advantage, why not take it for free?

In reality, what you see as freebies are actually giving the other side opportunities to do things.

So, how can we minimize this loss?

That is to anticipate what the opponent will do in the next round and then discard the cards in their hand in advance!

Take Wang Ke's actions as an example.

Snake's tactical objective was to gank the bottom lane with four players attacking the bottom lane's outer turret, thereby freeing up the bottom lane for their AD carry to position himself in the mid lane.

To launch an attack, you must first create an opportunity for an offensive turn.

Instead of forcing a fight when both sides have the resources to compete.

Therefore, Wang Ke first chose to gank the top lane, destroying Maokai's TP.

In this way, the tree doesn't have a T, but Gnar does. This skill difference is equivalent to having an offensive turn.

Wang Ke quickly returned to the city, and with the help of the five-speed boots, he quickly went online and called for the mid and jungle to immediately dive the bottom lane and push down WE's bottom outer tower.

According to the previous logic, the action of "destroying the outer tower" is equivalent to consuming this turn.

So WE should actually do something at this time.

At this point, Snake's players are mostly in the bottom lane, so WE should try to find a rhythm around the top lane.

codni's first thought was to coordinate with the big tree to dive Gnar.

However, as early as when the tree used TP to return to lane, Wang Ke had already instructed Flandre to force a trade of blows with the tree at all costs, even if it meant losing.

After lowering the tree's health, Flandre, relying on his multiple Teleports, immediately used Teleport to return to lane at full health.

Seeing that the tree was out of form, WE had no choice but to abandon their plan to tower dive, and Condi could only sneak into Saofen's jungle to steal a few jungle camps.

Xiye could have taken advantage of this opportunity to quickly push the lane in the mid lane to catch up on his development and at the same time whittle down the health of the mid lane turret.

However, after Thresh initiated the team fight in the bottom lane, he immediately headed to the mid lane and even began to forcefully block the lane.

Although Wang Ke almost got killed by LeBlanc due to a misplay while blocking the lane, he was fortunately safe and sound.

As a result, Snake team's four-man gank on the bottom lane resulted in two kills and a turret, while WE only managed to get a F6 camp and a Krugs in their own round.

These subtle operational details are hard for the average viewer to notice, but the economic gap between the two sides is widening at a real and visible speed.

The next step is to wait for the Snake team's Summoner Spells to be off cooldown, and then plan the next attack with "accurate resource targets" as the main objective.

During this period, the only things that need to be done well are the arrangement of vision and defense.

Wang Ke began frequently adjusting vision to remind his teammates not to push too far into lanes. However, the player who was called out the most was not Song Wen, but Sao Fen.

This Vietnamese guy is still resentful about his top jungle being invaded last time, and he keeps trying to invade WE's jungle.

From the commentary booth, watching the Snake team operate steadily, Guan Zeyuan immediately noticed the huge changes they had made compared to the previous game.

"Snake Team played so steadily in the second game! They didn't give WE any chance at all! It was suffocating!"

Rita nodded and said, "WE seems very anxious right now, but they can't find their direction."

WE is indeed in a very urgent situation right now.

Although both sides have entered a relatively stable development phase, Snake's economic advantage has actually been expanding.

The main reason for this is the loss of the outer turret in the bottom lane, and Sivir's wave clear ability in the mid lane, which puts immense pressure on their defense of the bottom jungle.

Moreover, WE also knew that they couldn't drag this game into the late game like they did in the last game.

Because in this game, they didn't have a late-game carry like Kog'Maw to protect them, and their mid laner was LeBlanc.

Although Jinx is also a carry AD carry, she is clearly no match for Kog'Maw in terms of dealing with the front line.

In comparison, Snake Team's lineup in this game had stronger additions in the late game, with Ryze and Sivir being heroes who could stand out in the late game.

Twenty minutes into the game, WE finally found an opportunity!

Snake suddenly started grouping up four players to push mid, which finally allowed WE to engage in a head-on team fight.

However, what WE sees as an opportunity is actually a decision made by Snake Esports after careful planning.

At this point, all of Snake's summoner spells were ready, and they had a 6,000 gold lead.

If you can't even win a team fight, then there's definitely something wrong with the players.

Actually, there's one thing about the current version that bothers Wang Ke as well.

That is, there are too few resources to compete for, and too few resources that can speed up the pace of the game.

The cost-effectiveness of the dragon is too low; if its attributes are not good, there is no need to compete for it.

This version of Rift Herald hasn't been reworked yet; it only provides a buff, which doesn't help the winning team quickly push towers and snowball.

If this had happened in a later version, Snake Esports would probably have already pushed to WE's high ground.

Wang Ke controlled Thresh, standing to Song Wen's side.

He knew that WE was in a hurry, not them, so there was no need for him to make the first move, lest he make a fool of himself by missing his Q.

Urged by Wang Ke, Snake Esports purchased almost twice as many control wards as WE. Before launching an attack on the outer mid-lane turret, Snake Esports had completely suppressed vision control of the river area near the mid-lane.

957's Tree chose to teleport to a ward in the jungle to flank, but little did he know that the moment his teleport appeared, Snake Esports had already detected his movement.

Wang Ke gave a signal to retreat, saying, "Go find the big tree!!"

Since 957's TP was a flanking maneuver, he was disconnected from his teammates on the front.

Although TP can be canceled in this version, Snake's obvious move made 957 immediately realize that his position had been exposed, but he knew that he no longer had the right to retreat.

Because Gnar's Teleport is already active, if he cancels it now, Snake will instantly be in a 5v4 situation on the front line. Even if his teammates retreat quickly enough, the mid-lane turret will definitely be lost.

During this period, WE's top outer turret has been worn down by Gnar due to his long range advantage. WE knows the importance of the mid outer turret and has been heavily guarding it to hold out until now. If the outer turret is lost out of nowhere, then the next step for WE after losing all the outer turrets will be the loss of vision in the entire jungle.

"Look at me, look at me, they can't kill me in seconds."

957 shouted in the voice chat.

Seeing Snake rushing straight towards 957's position, WE knew they couldn't afford to give up this wave, so they immediately rushed out from under the tower.

The location of the tree's teleport is in the red buff bush in the upper half of the Snake team's map.

At this point, Thresh had already turned left and charged into the narrow passage between F6 and the river.

Thresh suddenly stopped the moment he disappeared from sight.

Then, using the enemy's line of sight, he flashed in the opposite direction!

"White! He flashed into the crowd, that was such a decisive team fight initiation! The Doom Pendulum landed on the three WE members in front of him!!"

'

"Snake's move was a ruse; they feigned a retreat but then suddenly launched a counterattack! WE fell for it!!"

Wang Ke activated his ultimate skill, but then didn't rush to use his Q skill. He knew that the enemy team all had Flash available.

At this point, all you need to do is have your teammate force out a skill!

The pink-haired sonic wave had already hit the spider, followed by a side-step R-flash that knocked the spider into the air and kicked Jinx, who was further away.

It's now!

Thresh suddenly threw his hook, hitting Jinx squarely as she was knocked into the air!

"We've collected the points, everyone."
