Chapter 577: The perfect strategy for dealing with the line-changing routine!
As soon as the classic bottom lane combination of Policewoman and Lao Niu appeared, the situation became confusing.
In this version, choosing Miss Fortune to target EZ is a very stupid thing to do.
Because if the policewoman doesn't buy Storm Cut as her first item, she will have no combat effectiveness. Buying Storm Cut as her first item will slow down the formation of Cannon + Infinity. After the major update, the pace of the game is very fast. As long as the policewoman doesn't achieve the effect of threading, it is basically impossible for her to survive long enough to support the team battle.
so.
The most likely thing Caitlyn and Lao Niu are considering is switching lanes to suppress the opponent, as well as forcing their way across the tower.
So, here comes the question.
"Is FW's policewoman Lao Niu really going to switch lanes, or is he just faking a shot to trick EDG?"
Miller raised a question: "Since EDG gave General the Gangplank, they must ensure General's development, but it is not easy to play with EZ + Thresh if they catch Caitlyn and switch lanes. If they can't catch Caitlyn and switch lanes, they will collapse."
"If we fail to catch the lane change, it's like giving the policewoman the first blood tower for free." Changmao added.
"It's a bit embarrassing. Let's see how EDG will deal with it." Wawa tried hard to use his not-so-smart brain, but couldn't think of a solution.
The final adjustment phase is over.
The lineup is confirmed.
Blue side: EDG
Red side: FW
Top lane: Gangplank vs. Mundo
Jungle: Troll vs Scorpion
Mid: Ryze vs Vampire
AD: EZ vs Policewoman
Support: Thresh vs. Lao Niu
As the audience cheered, the scene turned to Summoner's Rift.
The camera swept across the wilderness and the red moon in the background, and the stone sculpture of "God King" Garen and Noxus, and then transitioned to a normal battle scene.
An interesting scene appeared...
"oops!"
Wawa's voice was half surprised and half happy: "General's summoner skills are actually flash and punishment!"
" What a good countermeasure!" Miller's eyes lit up. "Captain will definitely not feel any pressure facing Mundo. He does not rely on teleporting for supplies. When his teammates need support, Captain can just use his ultimate move. He also does not need to teleport."
"Take the punishment. If the laning phase is normal, you can occasionally go to the jungle to clear it."
"If FW switches lanes... General will just go jungle!"
"General still has Dark Harvest, which adds 2 points of damage to a large wild monster and can " Changmao looked at the talents.
"I have an idea." Wawa thought again: "If FW gave Hanabi a more offensive hero in the top lane, would it be better?"
"No way." Miller shook his head: "General has let a teleport appear in the laning phase many times, but there is no top laner who can force General to bring a teleport. Moreover, if you get an offensive top laner to play a lane swap, even if you succeed in catching General off guard, you will be useless."
"Even if you bring smite, the same principle applies. In a particularly obvious lane swap, EDG let General follow the bottom lane to destroy the tower together."
"Indeed..." Wawa agreed deeply.
…
“Ah, this…”
“I can actually come up with such a solution.”
"General is such a genius!"
"I was planning to use the line-switching tactic to target him, but now it seems that I was not well-considered."
In the LCK region, the four coaches participating in the Asian Challenge gathered together to study EDG.
Seeing Captain Punishment appear on the big screen, I was surprised and relieved, but also inevitably wary and a little bit... afraid.
Everyone knows that EDG, wearing two layers of resurrection armor, will never use their full strength against FW.
The line-changing tactic was cracked without even putting in all your effort.
If you give it your all, what kind of heroes and tactics will you use?
Different mentality off the field.
The FW players in the stadium were a little confused for a moment.
When picking out the lineup, head coach Zhanma arranged a line-changing tactic and vowed: This time we will definitely be able to suppress General 's development.
However, when entering the game, taking a closer look...
Oh my god, EDG’s top laner is a Gangplank with punishment!
How can I change this line?
The Scorpion, an explosive hero with thirty-three Qs that can kill people in seconds, cannot defeat the King of Cheats who steals attack power while absorbing both resistance and health.
FW uses the lane-swapping tactic, which will also add a super knife-playing Captain to the jungle.
Instead of forcing a lane change and being tortured the entire time, it’s better to just hang in the fountain and wait for surrender.
"Don't change it, don't change it."
SwordArT, a veteran player in the support position, made a decision: "If we play normally, we still have a chance. If we force a lane change, there will be no fun in the jungle."
"Right!" Mid laner Maple agreed: "General doesn't have a teleport so he has no tolerance. Find a way to target him."
"No problem, I can trade blood with him first, then go back to the city with full equipment and fly to the line to fight the second wave." Top laner Hanabi thought of a way.
Make a good decision.
FW put up a tight defense in the upper jungle area.
The three heroes, Mundo, Scorpion and Vampire, kept a close eye on the captain to prevent him from having his things stolen.
But at this time, Meiko controlled Thresh and walked in the front, leading EZ, Ryze, and Troll, secretly sticking to the river wall and entering the lower half of the FW team's jungle area.
Just rounded the corner.
A... Piltover Policewoman appeared in front of me!
Xiye used the shortcut key to upgrade the W skill without hesitation, flashed and dodged, and used the [Rune Imprisonment] that lasted for 0.75 seconds to attack at the maximum distance!
0.75 seconds, very short.
Moreover, the new talent released in the S8 season has a toughness bonus of up to 20%. Combined with mercury boots, it can shorten the control time by nearly half.
When necessary, melee heroes are all old version of Irelia.
Therefore, Ryze's control is almost meaningless in the late game.
Older players with slower reaction times don’t even have time to input attack commands.
However, in the early stage of the game, these 0.75 seconds are enough for Thresh to follow up with a sure-hit Q [Death Judgment]. The rusty iron hook pulls the policewoman's body, which means this wave is a sure kill!
EZ shoots out [Mystic Shot], and then performs a normal attack.
The troll moved closer step by step, swung his big stick to hit once, and then took a bite with [Sharp Teeth].
Ryze also casually swung out a small energy beam.
FW's bottom lane player Betty learned the E skill, moved half a body distance away, and then gave up the treatment and struggled for a while.
But the factory manager waited for the Q skill to finish the cold cut, flashed AQ and continued to stick to the enemy, sticking to the policewoman and slowing her down.
With the help of others' subsequent output, he got the first blood.
Giving four hundred gold coins to the factory manager's troll is equivalent to directly getting the benefits of most of the jungle area.
This made the situation of FW jungler Scorpion even worse.
Not only that, Miss Fortune used up both of her skills and learned E at level 1, losing the ability to push the lane and fight, and will inevitably be suppressed by EZ and Thresh who take level 2.
Before the official confrontation even began, FW had to suppress the opponent in the early game and quickly push the tempo in the bottom lane, which put them at an irreparable disadvantage.
1 minute and 10 seconds, the entire army attacked.
At 1 minute and 37 seconds, the top lane troops made contact.
Hanabi, nicknamed 'Fire Dragon', looked at the captain who had not come online yet, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart...
