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

Lucian glided forward.

With three water droplets from Nami's E [Tidecaller's Blessing] attached to his body, two passive auto-attacks followed by a Q that pierced through Braum's body, Braum's already low health instantly plummeted, and Lee Sin's second Q followed closely to finish him off.

The kills in the bottom lane haven't completely ended yet.

The director's camera has already switched to the upper road.

Because his jungle was constantly being invaded, Mlxg was forced to gank top lane again.

But Mouse didn't give them any more chances this time.

Perhaps it was because playing the same old tree for so many years was too frustrating, or perhaps it was because he was annoyed by being used as a football by Mlxg in the last game.

After Mouse got his signature champion, Renekton, he was extremely aggressive. Especially after confirming that his jungler had invaded the enemy's top jungle and that he wasn't at risk of being ganked, he almost always seized every opportunity to trade blows with Letme's Gnar.

At this moment, the minion waves on the top lane converged in the middle of the river. The crocodile and Gnar had just finished a trade of blows, and both of their health had been reduced to below half.

However, Letme didn't dare to jump forward to keep the enemy in place, because Renekton had both his Red Fury W and ultimate available. If he rashly used his E first, he might be bitten by Renekton's Red Fury W and traded kills.

Therefore, the only option is for the prince to use EQ to close the distance and then use his R skill [Cataclysm] to try and keep the enemy in place.

"Mouse immediately used Flash to avoid the damage; this was a very calm move!"

This is from EDG's team voice chat.

"Brother Guang, God Guang!" Seeing that the bottom lane had caught someone and the top lane hadn't been in trouble yet, the EDG team had already secured an early advantage, and exaggerated praises were ringing out one after another in the voice channel.

  

"But Guang-ge, why do I feel like you could turn the tables if you unleash your ultimate move?"

Meiko glanced at the top lane. The Prince had used all his abilities, Gnar was low on health, and the Renekton still had his ultimate available. "If you had used your ultimate and turned around to bite back, you could have traded one for one, right?"

"I definitely wouldn't dare to use my ultimate skill!"

Mouse pretended to have something difficult to say and sighed, "Brother Yi said we're going to rush the Vanguard in ten minutes. If I use my ultimate now, the Vanguard team will be useless."

"You also want your teammates to be comfortable?" Meiko immediately seized the opportunity, and a low laugh echoed in the voice channel.

The Rift Herald spawned ten minutes later, but neither side of the bottom lane moved, clearly indicating that RNG had given up on contesting it.

"At this point in time, EDG's top and jungle are too strong." I remember glancing at the status of both teams' heroes.

"The crocodile still had his ultimate saved up from the last wave, while Xiangguo's Jarvan IV used his ultimate to gank. This skill difference will be a huge blow in the skirmish, so RNG's decision not to engage in this team fight is reasonable."

"RNG really isn't planning to fight anymore," Rita chimed in. "But EDG is still playing conservatively, with Renekton and Morgana still pushing the lane and then heading towards the river."

"It's probably to protect the Lee Sin who's playing Vanguard, to prevent a sudden pick-off from a Twisted Fate card combined with Jarvan IV."

[The crocodile got caught last time but didn't use his ultimate, apparently to secure the vanguard fight? I get it, so this is what they call "playing it safe," right?]

[RNG just let them go like that?]

"Then what do you want to do? In a game where all three lanes are at a disadvantage, what resources does the jungler dare to control?"

I didn't watch the first two rounds of the knockout stage, so I'd like to ask when EDG will start playing aggressively in the early game?

[EDG's draft lineup was destined for an early-game advantage...]

[It's hard to say. In the Spring Split, EDG also picked an early-game composition against RNG, but Scout's Ekko was caught out and used his ultimate before two consecutive dragon fights, resulting in his death in the final team fight...]

At this point, RNG's voice chat was much quieter than it had been in the previous two games.

Although this team is known for its frequent communication, the level of activity in that communication is often closely tied to the situation at hand.

This is like sitting in a five-person internet cafe with your friends.

When the team is on a winning streak, all five players can rush to report information in voice chat and even joke with each other; but once they fall into a losing streak, the communication between the team will inevitably decrease, and there is even a chance that a hidden red-temperature pressure monster will appear.

At this point, only Xiaohu and Ming were still maintaining a basic communication rhythm in the voice channel.

"Can I fly down from mid lane?" Ming's voice was tentative. "I have Exhaust and Flash, I can kill Nami."

Xiaohu recalled the predicament of having his mid tower pushed back and vision compressed in the previous game, and at this moment EDG had just taken the Rift Herald, so he could only say helplessly: "I have to defend the mid tower."

"Alright, let's stabilize the lane first, then we'll have to take over Baron." Ming didn't say anything more.

The game has reached the 20-minute mark.

The battle for vision along the river quietly unfolded as the Baron Nashor was about to spawn.

RNG took the lead in positioning, and Mlxg's Jarvan IV placed a control ward in the Baron pit, clearing the vision that EDG had previously set up.

Xiaohu's Twisted Fate also immediately came over, while Uzi's Varus and Ming's Braum arrived late after pushing the minion wave in the bottom lane, but their positions were very close together.

Braum led the way with his shield in hand, while Varus followed behind, maintaining a distance that allowed him to follow up with damage output without being targeted by the first burst of fire.

"RNG has already positioned themselves near the Dragon Pit, while EDG is still moving towards the river."

Remember speaking very fast: "This Baron is crucial for both sides. If EDG gets it, it will strengthen the tower-pushing ability of their short-range lineup. If RNG gets it, it will give their late-game lineup a few more minutes to develop."

This is from EDG's team voice chat.

RNG's mid-lane tower had already been destroyed by the Rift Herald. At this time, Li Yi sent the minion wave to the second tower and then headed towards the main battlefield in the river.

"Ah Guang, you take over my mid lane. If the enemy fakes a dragon, you take down the tower. If they really rush to the end, you can teleport to the ward in the river bush at any time."

Mouse replied crisply: "Received!"

"besides."

Li Yi opened the tab and pinged Xiaohu's equipment bar: "You guys should focus your Luna poke on Twisted Fate first, he's very squishy."

The other members of EDG also noticed Xiaohu's equipment: "Holy crap, Mercury's Treads?"

EDG's main damage output comes almost entirely from AD, so they couldn't hold back when they saw Xiaohu pull out Mercury's Treads.

The match footage cuts to the area in front of the Dragon Pit.

"Because EDG has Nami's ultimate [Raging Waves] which allows them to initiate team fights directly, and the terrain is also conducive to their kiting, RNG did not choose to group up and squeeze into the dragon pit, but instead spread out." Remember's speech speed began to increase.

Rita quickly added, "Xiaohu's card activated [Fate] to observe vision, putting him in a relatively safe position. Lucian chose to use his E to poke!"

"Xiaohu cuts out a yellow card to immobilize Lucian!"

"But Lucian has Youmuu's Ghostblade movement speed to create distance from the yellow card. In fact, only Uzi's Varus on RNG's side can use his Q skill to poke, so Iboy did not choose to use Cleanse."

Time your attack carefully, waiting for Uzi to raise his hand to charge up his Q and slow you down.

Li Yi made his move.

Taking advantage of the natural elevation difference between his position in the blue side's jungle and the river, Li Yi found the right angle to unleash his Q, with the trajectory slightly off-center from Varus's position.

hit!
