LOL: What does "mid-lane hybrid expert" mean?

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan couldn't help but exclaim, "What's going on? Did Rookie not find a suitable place to teleport?"

"Let's take a look at the director's replay."

The replay showed the mid lane, where Rookie's LeBlanc finished clearing the minion wave, first feinted towards the top lane river, then turned around and returned to the turret, activating TP to support the top lane.

However, Li Yi could tell from the first laning phase that Rookie was trying to push the lane and roam, so he placed a ward in advance!

After seeing through Rookie's intentions, Li Yi's Lissandra skillfully crossed the minion wave and arrived in front of the enemy's turret.

First, he placed an E skill [Glacier Path] behind him, then flashed into the turret and used the W skill [Frost Ring] to control Rookie who was channeling TP. Finally, he pressed the second part of E and exited the turret at the last moment of Ice Claw!

Flowing like clouds and water!

"pretty!"

Guan Zeyuan sincerely exclaimed, "I have to say, if Rookie had successfully teleported in this wave, EDG's early game strategy would have completely failed. LeeE showed a decisiveness beyond what a rookie could display!"

"Yes, as can be seen from the performance in the last BO5, LeeE's grasp of roaming is outstanding," Su Xiaoyan agreed.

At this moment, in EDG's team voice chat.

Meiko had clearly seen what Li Yi had just done: "Okay, let me interrupt Li Yi. I didn't expect these two Koreans to be so close; they even came to the rescue."

  

"Rookie's laning intentions are too obvious. Instead of learning Q to harass at level one, he learns W to stomp on minions," Li Yi replied, trying to be modest.

"Huh? How dare Jayce teleport back?"

Li Yi glanced at the top lane and saw that TheShy clearly lacked experience in dealing with lane swaps and had directly chosen to teleport to the top lane.

Meiko immediately canceled the half-loaded recall animation: "Is he always this brave?"

Jayce, after landing, clearly wanted to quickly clear the minion wave to reach level two, but his hammer form Q [Sky Leap] was interrupted by Thresh's [Pendulum of Doom] as he returned to the tower. Thresh then hooked Jayce with his Q again.

"I'll fight to the end! I'll fight to the end!"

"Nice!"

Although Meiko's Thresh was eventually traded for by the turret, Jayce not only lost all five waves of minions, but also lost a valuable early-game Teleport.

That's too ruthless. This Jayce will probably still be level 1 in five minutes.

[Is this player named Jiang Chenglu? Since he's so good at giving away kills, why not just call him "Timely Rain Jiang"?]

[The commentators are praising the mid laner again, but what does this have to do with the mid laner? Can I ask them?]

[Go Rookie! If a player like Rookie, who's invincible in lane, loses to this kind of useless player, it would be a huge shock to my worldview.]

The following games followed a familiar rhythm for EDG.

Iboy's Kalista was cunning; he didn't push down the top lane turret because he knew that pushing it too early would give Jayce room to farm. So he just left the turret with low health and kept burning the minion wave.

At this point, Kalista and Thresh had both reached level six, and could almost tower dive without taking damage using their R skill, "Call of Fate".

"Don't go and help."

During IG's team voice chat, Rookie calmly reminded jungler Ning.

He then seamlessly switched to Korean to communicate with the top laner: "TheShy, you eat the Krugs to farm, we'll go target the enemy Shen."

Ning responded and wobbled as he maneuvered the wine barrel to the bottom lane river.

He was also a bot lane AD carry, and knew that the best option at this time was to kill the enemy Shen, let his own bot lane take down the first tower first, and then switch back to the top lane.

Now, go to the bottom lane.

Mouse, who had been bearing the pressure alone, wasn't too panicked at this moment. Although he couldn't last-hit minions at all, Tahm Kench's tower-diving ability was far inferior to Thresh's, and Shen was able to get experience thanks to his passive [Ninja Art! Spirit Shield] shield, so he wouldn't fall behind in levels.

Therefore, although the cannon minion wave was pushing into the tower, the Gragas hadn't arrived yet, and Mouse knew that Varus and Tahm Kench's damage output would definitely be insufficient.

"Ah Guang, hold onto your W skill, don't use it yet, I can come to your rescue." Li Yi used Q to clear another wave of minions and immediately disappeared from the mid lane.

Mingkai, who was engrossed in farming the F6 camp, immediately stopped and followed Li Yi to the bottom lane.

"We need to retreat, the enemy mid and jungle have gone." Rookie glanced at the bottom lane, which hadn't made a move yet, and knew that even if they managed to tower dive successfully, they would be wiped out by the arriving EDG mid and jungle, so he quickly reminded them.

Unlike traditional mages with short legs.

LeBlanc has two dashes, W (Shadow Walk) and R (R), making it unlikely she'll be caught out mid-flight. Therefore, Rookie boldly chose to provide support from the dark river.

But when passing by Xiaolongkeng.

The enchantress's ghostly figure suddenly froze.

The next second, a blue ring of frost appeared beneath Rookie's feet.

"What's going on?"

Rookie spotted Lissandra and Jarvan IV lurking in the dark vision of the Dragon Pit. He initially thought they were heading to the bottom lane from the jungle, but their real purpose was to use their mobility skills to ambush him in the Dragon Pit!

"bury!"

A massive [Frozen Tomb] emerged from beneath LeBlanc's feet, providing a 1.5-second stun that allowed Jarvan IV to easily finish off the enemy.

Most mid laners would choose to take Cleanse when facing a champion like Lissandra with a lot of crowd control, but Rookie was obviously overconfident in this game, thinking that he could easily dominate the lane, so he took Teleport in hopes of finding opportunities on the side lanes.

"IG is already in a very difficult position. LeBlanc and Jayce are both champions whose rhythm cannot be disrupted in the early and mid-game." Seeing that IG was already behind in the data, Guan Zeyuan had no choice but to make a pragmatic prediction.

"Actually, Rookie didn't utilize his strong laning advantage in this game. If it comes to roaming, this rookie LeeE is not afraid at all."

"Yes, Coach Nofe's tactical arrangements in this match were brilliant. It can be said that he helped EDG perfectly overcome IG's strong laning phase," Su Xiaoyan said slowly, looking at the screen.

Seventeen minutes into the game, TheShy, who only had one Youmuu's Ghostblade in his pocket, was unable to deal with Shen, who was four levels ahead of him, and was forced to group up in the mid lane.

Nineteen minutes in, the entire EDG team returned to base to buy control wards, preparing to rush Baron Nashor with Kalista's spear and Smite.

Mingkai reminded Rookie that LeBlanc would definitely flank, so Li Yi simply had Meiko clear vision in his own jungle while he remained hidden in the bushes.

One minute later, LeBlanc, who didn't have Cleanse, was caught by Li Yi. IG's only chance to turn the tide disappeared, and they could only watch as the already godlike Kalista wreaked havoc in team fights.

Even the utilitarian approach of using milk (likely referring to a product or drug) was ineffective.

Coach Nofe is amazing; he's definitely got the best of both worlds. His only downside is that he's expensive.

Will TheShy be devastated after this match? While it's true that rookies often get ganked, this one was just too brutal.

[Last game you guys said LeeE was using Galio to rack up assists, but this time he had the highest teamfight participation rate, what's going on?]

[The fifth floor counter pick is a mess. If you've played it yourself, you know how much Lissandra counters LeBlanc, and yet she's still getting pressured in last hits...]

Just when the audience thought...

This BO5 will be a clean 3-0 victory, just like EDG vs. VG.

Coach Nofe, adhering to the traditional virtue of "it is impolite not to reciprocate", replaced the top laner with Aodi, ostensibly to test TheShy's laning strength!
