League: I really didn't tank!

Chapter 424 is even more heavyweight.

At this moment, the live stream chat was filled with question marks, expressing their shock.

Chen Dongqing knew that the weapon's E skill was not yet ready, so he took the opportunity to go forward and finish off the enemy to secure level 2.

TheShy hesitated for a moment, but immediately moved in after his E skill was ready, wanting to turn the tide.

Even if you can't trade blows, you should at least use your E to push the lane, so that the minion wave disadvantage isn't too great.

But Chen Dongqing was well aware of this, so he had prepared countermeasures.

When the weapon user used his E to engage in a fight, he used his E to stun the weapon user and the minions at the same time, creating a clash with the weapon user's E and establishing an advantage for himself to reach level two first.

After this wave, the second wave of minions spawned, and Irelia's lane control was completely secured.

With a series of superb micro-management moves at level one, Chen Dongqing successfully secured a second-place finish!

Once you've secured lane control, the next step is naturally to push the lane.

This step isn't too difficult. Chen Dongqing just needs to keep using Q to maintain full passive and Conqueror, and TheShy won't be able to do anything about it.

After the third wave of minions, Chen Dongqing successfully pushed the minion wave to IG's top tower.

Xiangguo's barrel also appeared right on time behind the tower, and a tower dive was launched!

But on the other hand, IG clearly doesn't intend to sit idly by.

TheShy recovered a significant amount of health by using a potion, and he stood under the tower with all his skills available, giving him a huge opportunity to make plays!

Meanwhile, Ning's Lee Sin also appeared behind Xiangguo.

"Hey, here it comes! Ning's counter-gank!" Wawa shouted loudly, "This isn't a good dive, TheShy has already recovered his health! Should we really dive him!?"

The answer is yes.

Although Ning was present, Lee Sin's tower-diving ability was only average, making it difficult for him to provide TheShy with sufficient protection.

If this trade results in a one-for-one exchange, then it's a win!

Xiangguo was extremely arrogant, ignoring the Lee Sin behind him, and walked into IG's first tower while drinking!

"I'll use my E skill right at your face, you and the crowd control, and we'll both be instantly killed!"

"OK"

QG's top and jungle completed a simple communication, and then the offensive came suddenly.

Xiangguo stood in front of the weapon and used his E skill to charge directly at the weapon!

Gragas's E skill provides enough crowd control for Irelia to follow up with her E. Chen Dongqing only needs to wait for Gragas to initiate, and then he can follow up with his own E. Jax definitely won't be able to withstand this combo.

If we could destroy the weapon instantly, then both of us might be able to escape.

Unfortunately for him, TheShy wasn't stupid. Before being knocked unconscious, TheShy realized QG's tower-diving strategy, so he activated Counter Strike in advance!

Thanks to E's AOE damage reduction and basic attack dodge, TheShy successfully survived the first burst with 40% health remaining!

TheShy stood under the tower, but instead of retreating, he advanced and immediately used Q to jump onto the top of Xiangguo's head who was tanking the tower, and then used E to stun Xiangguo!

Taking advantage of this moment, Ning's Lee Sin also moved in and landed a Q on Xiangguo's Gragas!

At this point, Xiangguo was already doomed.

Our teacher Guo understood this too. He didn't even think about leaving. He immediately used his W skill to smash the weapon!

At the same time, Chen Dongqing also unleashed his fully charged W, reducing the weapon's health by a large margin. He then used Q to charge in and AQA, clearing the weapon's health before the turret could kill Xiangguo!

"First blood!"

Watching the weapon fall first, the already low-health Teacher Guo revealed a satisfied smile.

The next second, the turret fired a shot, and with the help of Lee Sin's damage, Xiangguo was also sent away!

At this moment, there was a nearly full-health Irelia and a full-health Lee Sin under the tower. Obviously, there was not much to do next. Chen Dongqing turned around and retreated, while Ning Wang wisely started to last-hit the low-health enemy under the tower, ending the 2v2 under the tower with a one-for-one trade.

Backstage at IG, Coach Kim breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the scene before him.

Although this one-for-one trade was definitely a loss... Coach Kim's original expectation was not to lose any, so... the kills that were traded were a pure surprise, no problem!

"Alright, a one-for-one trade!" Wawa shouted. "But I have to say, this isn't good news for TheShy!"

"Yeah, right!" Miller couldn't help but shake his head. "Even if TheShy teleported back to lane, he would have lost a lot of minions. Plus, he only got an assist this time. The gap between the two top laners has widened instantly!"

"Given Tree's (Tree's) tendency to become unstoppable once he gains an advantage, TheShy's laning phase will be very difficult this game!"

Luwei, with the lowest emotional intelligence, bluntly said, "This isn't difficult, bro. It's amazing he didn't get solo killed."

Upon hearing this, both commentators immediately coughed.

Two seconds later, the child finally said, "Indeed."

With his weapon lagging behind by one TP and 300+ gold, given Tree's style, it would be strange if he didn't get a solo kill.

It's just that both commentators are seasoned veterans and wouldn't make such absolute statements.

The game was still ongoing. After Chen Dongqing returned to base, he walked back to lane and was just in time to get a wave of minions pushed by TheShy.

After Chen Dongqing finishes clearing the lane, there will inevitably be another push back, so there's not much to see in the top lane for the time being. The director then switched the camera to the mid and bottom lanes to take a look.

In the mid lane, the two mid laners are locked in a fierce battle, with neither able to gain the upper hand.

Xiaohu was the second pick for Zoe, so it would be too much if he were to fall behind so easily in the laning phase.

But when the camera cuts to the bottom lane, the difference becomes obvious.

JackeyLove is, after all, a newcomer, and still has a slight gap compared to a seasoned veteran like Uzi.

Before Chen Dongqing's rebirth, RNG relied on Uzi in the bottom lane to achieve a double victory against IG in the spring and summer, let alone the enhanced Uzi in this life.

Despite playing a lane-weak champion like Ezreal, Uzi maintained pressure by leveraging Morgana's advantage over Tahm Kench, seizing every opportunity to wear down the opposing bot lane duo.

The game is now over four minutes in, and IG's bot lane duo is clearly struggling.

"Liu Shiyu, can you come to the bottom lane?"

Uzi understood that continuing to suppress them would inevitably lead to his capture, so he started calling for Xiangguo to counter-camp in advance.

"no problem."

Xiangguo didn't hold back either, clearing the bottom half of the map and then moving towards the bottom lane.

While listening to his teammates' conversation, Chen Dongqing switched the screen to the bottom lane.

Chen Dongqing certainly didn't want to go to the bottom lane to get a share of the spoils.

Instead, he had already planned it out: when the fight broke out in the bottom lane, that would be the time to make a move in the top lane.

He didn't have to wait long for this opportunity.

In less than a minute, Chen Dongqing pushed the top lane minion wave forward, and then returned to the middle position after being reset by the turret.

Meanwhile, in the bottom lane, Uzi, relying on Xiangguo's counter-gank, boldly pushed the minion wave across the river and launched a new round of pressure.

But at that moment, IG's offensive came out of nowhere. With Tahm Kench's Q hitting Shi Senming as a signal, a teleportation beam suddenly appeared behind Uzi, and Ning's Lee Sin also appeared behind the tower at the same time.

A four-man gank on the two sides came out of nowhere!

Seeing this, Uzi retreated while calling out to his teammates via voice chat.

Xiangguo's Gragas appeared in the bottom lane immediately, and Xiaohu promptly followed up with a TP!

A 4v4 battle broke out unexpectedly this afternoon!

Shi Senming cast a magic shield on himself and quickly retreated, but the slowing effect he had already applied to his body could not be avoided, and the two behind him slowly caught up!

Shi Senming turned around and hit Tahm Kench with a Q, but it was instantly dispelled by Tahm Kench's Cleanse. The two quickly closed in!

Taking advantage of this time, Ning's Lee Sin used a ward hop to cover the retreat and hit two people with his E. Listening to the team's voice chat, he decisively focused his attention on the fleeing Uzi!

In this four-man gank on the two, IG's goal is to kill them all!

The Blind Monk landed a Sonic Wave, and at the same time, the Cassiopeia teleported to the ground.

Uzi used his E to retreat, but was caught by Rookie. Cassiopeia used her W to predict the move and successfully trapped Ezreal who had just used his E!

Ning followed up with Echo Slash, and together with Rookie's Cassiopeia's QE combo, EZ's health was rapidly reduced!

The mid and jungler's damage was all focused on a tiny Ezreal. Even though Uzi was almost at full health, he was starting to feel the strain!

When Uzi stepped out of Cassiopeia's W, his health was already at a critical level.

He quickly flashed back to the tower, but Ning's movements were also swift. Lee Sin quickly flashed up and threw a punch, and Rookie's Cassiopeia followed with a flash, landing a Q that hit again, followed by a Venomous Fang, which was about to take down Uzi completely!

Uzi finally unleashed his trump card, healing, to help him withstand the E attack!

Rookie, who was already planning to turn back, frowned slightly. He immediately pulled the mouse over again, wanting to fire another E!

But just then, Xiangguo's wine barrels rushed down from under the tower!

The barrel's feet glowed with a predator-like red light, and a flash-E combo sent Rookie sprawling!

Since Rookie lacks the ability to secure kills, the low-health Ezreal can only be dealt with by Lee Sin.

Ning rushed into the tower, chased after Uzi, and punched him twice more, finally killing EZ.

However, as a price, Ning also took a hit from Zoe's E skill, which came to his aid, and the [Hypnotic Bubble] spell was being cast at lightning speed.

In that instant, the situation became incredibly unpredictable!

Ning, who had entered the tower, was clearly doomed, as he had no more mobility skills.

However, Shi Senming, who had been reduced to low health by IG's bot lane duo, was also doomed.

The next second, Lee Sin was hypnotized, and Xiaohu's Starfall, combined with the damage from the turret, sent Ning to his death!

Xiao Ming finally couldn't hold on any longer and was sent away by JackeyLove's Varus with a single Q.

At this moment, a three-on-two situation has formed on the field, with IG's mid and bot laners facing off against QG's mid and jungle!

IG also has Tahm Kench's W for protection, so no matter how you look at it, QG doesn't seem like a team that can compete!

However, QG's mid and jungle players showed no signs of backing down.

Xiangguo glanced at the snake woman in front of him and shouted, "Can Li Yuanhao fight? We have a chance to kill the snake woman!"

Xiao Hu glanced at the battlefield and immediately shouted, "We can fight! We can fight!"

Previously, in order to kill Uzi, IG's mid and jungle players both used Flash.

Because QG has Zoe, these flashes clearly became boomerangs aimed at them.

Xiaohu picked up the item on the ground and used Flash, relying on the damage from W and his passive to quickly reduce Rookie's health to less than half!

At this moment, Baolan's Tahm Kench walked over and used his W to devour Rookie. Seeing that they had made a profit, the three of them turned around and wanted to leave.

But QG wouldn't give up, chasing after Tahm Kench!

Tahm Kench's mechanics are still very strong this patch. After using his W to eat an ally, he not only doesn't get rooted to the ground, but he can even accelerate his escape.

But QG just kept chasing, enduring the tickling damage from Varus next to them, until Cassiopeia was spat out by Tahm Kench!

The downside of this version of Tahm Kench eating people is that he doesn't spit them out with a shield.

Xiaohu decisively used the third Flash he had picked up, then picked up the Cleanse that Baolan had just used, and refreshed his W continuously, dealing continuous damage to Cassiopeia!

At this point, Xiangguo was practically out of fighting strength, but he still chased after the Cassiopeia and unleashed a Q!

In the end, Xiaohu used QAQ to send the Cassiopeia away, and then used his original Flash to create distance while at low health, and successfully retreated with Xiangguo!

Amidst the thunderous cheers of the audience, the match ended with a two-for-two exchange.

"So, in that case, QG's bot lane duo traded for IG's mid and jungle!"

After analyzing the endgame, Wawa said, "I feel like QG isn't at a loss at all!"

"Definitely a good deal!" Miller nodded in agreement. "Although the two remaining IG players were in better form after the fight and could push a wave before recalling, the key mid and jungle players who died were crucial to the team's tempo. After this wave, the balance of power between the mid and jungle players on both sides might instantly shift!"

"I can only say Xiaohu's performance this time was absolutely amazing!" Luwei said casually. "Zoe's three consecutive Flashes made her practically invincible!"

Rough words are not rough.

After all, when Xiaohu entered the fray, IG still had four players left, making it a pure two-on-four situation!

But thanks to Zoe's three consecutive Flashes that kept refreshing her W, she managed to take down two members of IG!

Xiao Hu's performance this time has lived up to expectations.

Xiaohu got two kills this time, and facing Rookie who didn't get any kills this time, it shouldn't be a problem for him to gain an advantage!

What? You're saying it's a big loss that two bot laners died?

Trust Uzbekistan.

On the road, Chen Dongqing looked at the situation and smiled with satisfaction.

Playing 2v2 is enough.

With the enemy mid and jungle players all dead, this is his chance!

The director seemed to understand the situation, and before he even had a chance to switch to the replay of the fight in the bottom lane, he quickly switched the camera to the top lane!

The third commentator seemed to understand something, decisively suppressed his excitement, and continued to commentate on the situation on the field!

Chen Dongqing, who was laning in the top lane, casually auto-attacked a minion to control its health.

At this point, you can see that the enemy has two ranged minions with half health remaining.

Chen Dongqing walked up, pretending to trade blows with the weapon, and after forcing the weapon back, he subtly attacked one of the weapons until it was almost dead, and then turned back to continue attacking the melee soldiers.

When the melee soldier beside him was low on health and the weapon was close again, Chen Dongqing knew that the time to make his move had come.

Without saying a word, he took action!

Irelia used her Blade Strike to charge directly at the low-health ranged minion next to her!

Furthermore, during the Q skill's dash, Chen Dongqing swiftly moved the mouse, placing the first E at the weapon's feet and the second E beside himself, simultaneously creating a double blade at lightning speed!

The speed of these two E-segments surprised the three commentators once again.

TheShy was also taken aback.

Why do his two E skills appear simultaneously? Isn't there a casting order? This seems to contradict the hero's gameplay logic.

With this kind of lightning-fast double E, as long as the caster's hand is steady enough and the enemy is placed in the center, it is almost impossible for the enemy to escape by moving speed!

Even with weapons, which have relatively slow movement speeds, dodging them can be quite risky.

But TheShy reacted quickly, decisively pressing E to activate Counter Strike. At that moment, Irelia also used Q to charge the ranged minion to her side, and TheShy even took the initiative to auto-attack Irelia!

Being able to quickly determine that this E is difficult to dodge, so instead of making meaningless moves, directly activate E to counterattack and take advantage of the stun before it takes effect to steal a basic attack.

TheShy's laning phase is indeed vastly different from other top laners.

But it's alright.

Chen Dongqing is better.

At this moment, the [Twin Blades] converge, stunning the weapon in place.

Chen Dongqing's eyes remained calm. Although he was hit by the weapon, he was not flustered at all. He attacked another half-health ranged minion next to him, and then used Q to hit the melee minion that he had previously attacked and brought to low health!

"Tree Bro uses Q to pull away from the melee minions, moving out of the weapon's skill range!"

After pulling away, Chen Dongqing held down S, and the Irelia stayed still. After the stunned weapon automatically released the second part of E, she used Q to hit the second ranged minion that had just been damaged by the auto-attack, and then rushed to the weapon's face again!

(That's roughly it)

These three Qs plus one E stack up the passive skill almost imperceptibly, and Conqueror is also triggered.

Irelia has reached her strongest form!

Now, what Irelia is facing is a Jax who has lost his E ability and has the mark on his body!

Chen Dongqing didn't forget to steal a basic attack, then rushed in with a Q and got another basic attack!

Under the full buff of the Irelia, TheShy's health immediately began to plummet. With no way to fight back, he could only use Flash + ward jump to instantly create a large distance!

Chen Dongqing calculated the damage and decisively used Flash + Q to follow up!

Why are you running? Do you think you can escape?

Chen Dongqing rushed forward, slashing as he went. With the Conqueror buff and full passive ability, each strike dealt three-digit damage!

"Irelia's damage is incredibly high! Jax's health is dropping at an alarming rate! He looks like he's about to die!"

In the end, Jax managed to escape Irelia's attack range and also escape from under the tower, but his health was now very low.

Chen Dongqing pressed W, unleashing a fully charged W thrust with perfect damage calculation, securing a kill on TheShy!

As Luwei said before, if TheShy gets tower dived once at the start of the game, then it's a good thing he didn't get solo killed afterwards.

Therefore, Chen Dongqing simply did what he was supposed to do: seize the opponent's weakness and ruthlessly tear open the wound!

"Nice! Solo kill!" QG's unofficial member, Luwei, shouted excitedly from the commentary booth, "That Irelia was so skillful, bro!"

This single-kill brought the audience, who had just reached a climax, to another level, with countless cheers instantly engulfing the entire Chengdu Cube venue!

The bottom lane can barely be considered a small victory, but the top lane is like Qin Shi Huang touching an electric wire – a complete disaster!

Irelia turned around and pushed the lane, quickly pushing the minion wave under the tower. Without Teleport, Jax could only watch as the wave of minions was killed by the tower, and the gap between the two top laners widened even further!

At this moment, the comments section was buzzing with excitement.

【good!!!】

[Tree Bro is still pretty steady!]

Indeed, a clean solo kill.

There is a difference between the top laners of the second-team and the top laners of the first team.

[It's safe to say there's a real food chain among LPL top laners. TheShy can easily beat other top laners, but he starts feeding when he faces Maokai.]

[It's only the Spring Split, and he's already played so many games like this. Will TheShy get schooled by Tree Bro all year?]

[That's too cruel! Won't he directly surpass A-Guang and become Shu-Yi-er?]

That's hard to say.

Amidst the discussions in the live chat, the director switched to a replay of the episode.

This time, the battles on both the upper and lower routes were combined into one.

After the 2v2 in the bottom lane ended, the camera switched to the top lane, clearly and intuitively showing Chen Dongqing's cool solo kill.

As Irelia launched herself into the air with a Q, two E abilities suddenly appeared on either side of her weapon, converging rapidly and making it almost impossible to dodge!

"I really have a question," the doll suddenly said, "Why do I always feel like his two E's come out at the same time?"

"Yes!" Reed nodded, then asked doubtfully, "That doesn't make sense!"

Logically speaking, no matter how fast your hand speed is, there is still a sequence to these two E attacks. Each of Irelia's E attacks has a casting animation. The limitations of the hero's abilities are there. How can you expect to throw out both E attacks at the same time?

If Irelia's E is really that powerful, then wouldn't this champion be invincible?

Miller shook his head: "We'll have to wait until Brother Shu answers this question after the game."

But regardless, before Chen Dongqing answers this question, IG is bound to get caught in several waves of attacks by Irelia.

The camera returns to the live game, where we can see that the economic difference between the two sides has now reached nearly two thousand.

The bottom lane economy was evenly matched between the two sides, while Xiaohu in the mid lane had a lead of over 700 gold.

The remaining lead comes entirely from the top lanes on both sides.

At this point, Irelia was almost ready to build Trinity Force, but her weapon was still just a lonely little wooden hammer, which was incredibly pathetic.

(The previous text mentioned that the new version of Irelia usually builds Blade of the Ruined King as the first item, which was just my guess. Building Blade of the Ruined King directly is a strategy for stomping noobs in ranked games. In competitive games, it's generally better to build Trinity Force first, as it provides stronger combat power as the first item. However, the Blade of the Ruined King mentioned earlier is related to the storyline, so I won't change it. There's nothing I can do about it QAQ)

Given such a huge economic gap, even if TheShy has incredible skills, he can't possibly cause any trouble for Chen Dongqing.

Within seven minutes, both sides completed a swap.

Ning's Lee Sin ganked bot lane again, taking advantage of Shi Senming's lack of shield and Q, kicking him out of the tower and helping the team create an opening!

At the same time, Xiangguo's Gragas also came to the top lane, and together with Chen Dongqing, they killed the weapon under the tower again!

It was originally a one-for-one situation, but because QG successfully destroyed the top tower, while IG could only take the Earth Dragon which could not improve their immediate combat strength, the gap between the two sides widened further.

Within nine minutes of returning to the city, Chen Dongqing had already grasped the power of the Three Phases.

Chen Dongqing and Xiaohu quietly switched lanes and caught Rookie off guard in the mid lane!

Rookie was already sweating profusely just from facing Zoe, who was 2-0 in lane. He used all his skills to barely hold on and prevent any problems from arising.

But the moment Irelia arrived in the mid lane, the situation instantly became unbalanced.

While Cassiopeia's W ability, Ground Bind, can counter Irelia, at the very least, you need to ensure the two are on equal footing, right?

With such a large economic gap between the two sides, why would Irelia be afraid of a small territory?

After Chen Dongqing went online, he immediately used Q to charge at the ranged minion. With the damage boost from Sheen, the full-health ranged minion was easily killed by his blade!

And the snake woman is already right in front of us!

Chen Dongqing decisively pressed R, and his ultimate skill, Blade, flew out, trapping the Cassiopeia, whose Flash was not yet ready, within the ultimate skill's area!

Chen Dongqing curled his lips into a smile; he knew the snake woman was doomed.

Rookie threw his W ability, "Binding the Ground," onto Irelia, and then tried to turn and run away.

However, Irelia's ultimate not only applies a mark and disarms, but also slows you down significantly when you leave the area affected by her ultimate.

This made it even more difficult for the snake woman, who was already unable to wear shoes, to move around.

This deceleration was enough for Chen Dongqing to break free of the binding and unleash the [Twin Blades]!

Before E converged, Chen Dongqing used Q to rush in and deplete the ultimate's mark. After E applied another mark, he used AQAAQ to wipe out Cassiopeia's health and secure a solo kill!

Rookie felt dizzy.

Zoe, who is down 2-0, is already a terrifying opponent.

But this Irelia is even more heavyweight.

Who can stand this?

"The time is exactly ten minutes now. This solo kill in the mid lane allows QG to easily secure the Rift Herald and then push down the mid lane tower!" Wawa exclaimed in amazement, "That Irelia is truly invincible!"

Although Irelia only had a 3-0 score, those who know this champion understand that because of her Q skill, her CS (creep score) is far beyond what most people can achieve.

With 109 CS in ten minutes, out-farming the entire game by more than ten CS, Rookie couldn't help but wonder if this guy had already farmed for the next game as well.

Add to that the economic benefits of two defensive towers, and it's simply terrifying.

After the mid tower was destroyed, the camera panned to the bottom lane and Miller said with a smile, "This game might not even see Uzi get two Tear of the Goddess items before it's over."

This is indeed the case.

With such a fed Irelia here, QG doesn't need to worry about the bot lane at all.

EZ can play by himself. As long as you protect this top lane carry, the game will be a piece of cake!

Next, QG launched an offensive and defensive battle around Irelia, laying a trap in IG's top and jungle areas.

As long as IG players dare to gank Irelia, they will launch a counter-encirclement and strike with lightning speed! Xiaohu's Zoe is also well-equipped and a formidable fighter.

If you don't catch her, then you can just watch how the Irelia hacks at weapons!

QG executed their tactics methodically, successfully protecting Chen Dongqing and taking down the second top lane tower, widening the economic gap between the two sides by 1,000 again.

TheShy was so badly attacked by Irelia that he lost his mind and even started chuckling to himself.

Haha, Irelia is such a fun champion, I want to play her too!

Beside him, several teammates heard TheShy's laughter over the voice chat and shook their heads repeatedly.

To still be able to laugh at this point can only be described as having a very thick skin.

Thanks to Irelia's dominance in the early game, Uzi gained a lot of room to develop.

Soon, twenty-four minutes had passed.

Because Uzi had a slightly miserable early game, his Trinity Force and Manamune were completed a little later than two minutes later.

But it's not too late; EZ is still in his absolute strongest period.

Next, all Uzi needs to do is exert a little effort, and the game will be over.

As Uzi burst out of the fountain, he waved his hand and shouted, "Come on, Baron!"

(End of this chapter)
