Style: Gaming Author: Patriarch of side sectWords: 10381Update Time: 24/01/11 17:36:26
In order to compete for the second dragon, both sides have begun to make preparations at this time. After all, for kt, if they lose this second dragon, for them, this game has basically been declared it's over.

Because of this, whether they can win or not, they can only choose to rush over and compete with ig for this little dragon.

In order to avoid falling directly into the opponent's rhythm in the follow-up, there is basically no chance to turn around.

For ig, it is its own advantage. It is only natural to get the second dragon at this time. Therefore, in this situation, of course, it must defend its legitimate rights.

Only after slowly further expanding their advantage can the follow-up be the best for them.

Because of this, at this time, they have to do more things near Xiaolongkeng first, so that they can take more advantages, and then they can stabilize themselves in the follow-up, and stand on top of their innateness. In an invincible position.

It is precisely because the two sides have their own ideas and their own little calculations that they are fighting for wits and courage with each other at this time. It can be seen from the confrontation on each line that they are really at odds with each other at this time. Give in to each other.

Anyway, as long as they are on the opposite line at this time, they can advance the line of troops first and let themselves seize a certain advantage. This way, they will already have a certain advantage in the follow-up.

When facing the opponent later, as long as they take action first, they will have the first-mover advantage, and the other side will have difficulty doing things with its own support.

It is also for this reason that at this time, the two sides are fighting endlessly against each other, but no one is willing to let go of such an opportunity.

As for the lower route, because there were four people here, it was like playing mahjong and it was even more lively.

Of course, it also means that it is a calm state now.

Because the two junglers couldn't find each other's movements, they could only clean up the wild monsters in their own jungle areas first, and then quietly wait for the second dragon to refresh.

The next step for the jungler is to test their own skills. After all, other teammates are just here to assist them. If they directly rob near the Xiaolong Pit, the real protagonists are the two junglers.

Once the opponent's jungler is eliminated first, the winning team will be able to take the initiative, because their own jungler is there, but if the opponent does not have a jungler, it means that the team's rhythmic initiative will be firmly established. of holding it in his own hand.

Because no one can compete with a jungler with punishment.

At this time, the economic gap is actually not as big as imagined.

In the previous wave of fighting, both sides achieved certain things, and both sides hurt each other, so the economies of both sides have never been able to expand too much.

As a result, they had such an advantage in the past, but now they still only have so many, and they are always being chased by the opponent.

"This game was very tense. At this time, both sides were unwilling to give in to each other and wanted to seize the line rights. However, when neither side gave way to the other, the speed of both sides pushing the line was commendable.

Therefore, no one has anything obvious at this time. The two sides with the advantage should logically think of pushing the troops forward first, and then positioning themselves near the dragon pit to start laying out the vision.

But at this time, no one on either side was able to take action first. As a result, Xiaolong had already refreshed, but they had not made any movement yet. "

Basically, if you want to move the big dragon or the small dragon, you have to arrange the field of view directly near the dragon pit about 30 seconds before the refresh.

But what surprised several commentators was that everyone was still trapped in the lane at this time and could not leave, because you just pushed the line of troops over, and I quickly ate it and then pushed over.

So much so that when there is no military line, the two sides look at each other from a certain distance. If they find an opportunity, they even throw in a skill to say hello. Anyway, they are very enthusiastic.

So much so that at this time, there was a lot of back and forth between each other. Under this situation, no one had any extra thoughts to arrange the view near the dragon pit.

Because if anyone dares to mobilize, the other side will soon follow, and there will be no first-mover advantage at all. In this case, it is better to continue to stay on the line and no one will move.

The result of no one moving is that no one takes advantage, so everyone can accept it equally.

Faced with this situation, several commentators shook their heads at this time.

At the beginning, no one thought it would develop like this. Logically speaking, ig had an economic advantage of four heads at the beginning. The follow-up should be to advance with great success and directly defeat the opponent.

But what I didn't expect was that as the two assistants followed the jungler to do things everywhere, and after doing certain things, they really stabilized the situation on the court, so that no one could clearly gain an advantage. , now both sides can only develop step by step, and no one is absolutely sure that they can directly suppress the other.

You have to think carefully when doing something in the future.

Regarding this situation, the commentators are not surprised at this time.

Although it seems a bit surprising that such a situation appeared in this World Championship, after all, after watching the competition for so many years, they have experienced similar situations countless times.

So after the initial surprise, they have already stabilized their mentality, but now they can't help but feel a little drumming in their hearts. If they continue to delay like this, when kt's lineup enters its period of strength, Especially after the Tsar's equipment gets better and better, if the Enchantress wants to rely on her very flexible characteristics to find enemies like before, the situation will be different.

In the past, Enchantress relied on her high mobility to constantly find trouble for the opponent. However, due to the insufficient output ability of the Tsar at that time, facing the consumption of Enchantress, she could only deal with the opponent's damage. .

Although he said that he could counterattack to a certain extent, the damage caused by the sand soldiers was completely negligible to the enchantress.

But the current situation is that if you dare to go up again, as the tsar's equipment gets better and better, the output of the sand soldiers will also increase.

In the future, the threats to the Enchantress will naturally increase day by day.

Rookie himself actually understands this truth, so at this time, while he is still ahead, he is crazily suppressing the opponent in order to suppress your development and make your equipment program time continue to be delayed.

With no kills coming in, Enchantress, who started 3-0, has a clear lead in terms of equipment. Therefore, facing the continued suppression of Enchantress, the Tsar was beaten to a pulp and had no way to counterattack.

This kind of equipment lead cannot be alleviated in a short while. You can only wait for time to slowly pass. After your own equipment gets better and better, the gap between you and the opponent is not as huge as imagined. Only then will there be a certain amount of counterattack power.

Otherwise, this situation of being beaten will continue, unless in the next wave of team battles, the Czar can gain a few kills on the frontal battlefield, so that his equipment can be updated one step ahead of schedule. Let him keep up with the enchantress or directly receive the bounty head from the enchantress, so that he can slightly relieve his pressure when facing the opponent.

Otherwise, being suppressed like this will continue.

The only thing that gives Rookie some headaches is that it seems that at this time, he has been consuming the Tsar's Blood Immortal and quickly recommending the line of troops, but when the Tsar is consuming him, he can rely on his very flexible The figure distanced himself, but when he pushed the military line past, the two sand soldiers pushed forward, brushed a few times, and immediately cleared the military line.

As a result, the enchantress was unable to rely on her high mobility to move around quickly.

Because the Tsar clears the line of troops quickly enough, it means that as soon as he steps forward with his front foot, others can catch up directly with his back foot. The Enchantress has displacement, but the Tsar himself also has the same displacement skill, so in terms of braking ability, Said, in fact, the Enchantress is really not that far ahead of the Tsar.

The Enchantress is more flexible than the Czar, because he can change his shape and then return to his original position, which is equivalent to a displacement skill with two stages.

In addition, there is a big move that can be copied, which is equivalent to four stages. The four stages of displacement can be used interchangeably. You can wait until the next Shadow Shadow has cooled down. This makes him equivalent to having endless displacement skills. .

No matter what happens, there is still a flash that can be used, so you can completely defeat others with your brain and operation.

But if you are simply rushing, remember that it does not actually have any obvious advantages in this regard.

It was also for this reason that Rookie was pinned to the line at this time and could not move.

Logically speaking, he should go first, suppressing the Czar under the defense tower, and then mobilize himself next step to start doing things near the jungle.

After he made a lot of arrangements nearby, the tsar on the opposite side mobilized and followed behind him to do something, but he had lost the opportunity.

But the current situation is that after the Czar is equipped, the situation is not like this at all. He clears the line very quickly, resulting in Rookie not being able to take an obvious advantage.

The same is true for the upper and lower lines. Everyone is advancing very fast. When no one has a clear advantage, if you want to move first, then I will follow you. No one can take advantage. , even if this is the case, it is better not to move and just stay online.

In the past, everyone was thinking about quickly pushing the troops through and then leaving directly. However, after later discovering that this was not the case, everyone's thinking has changed again.

Since I can't bring my troops over and leave directly, why can't I try to lower the opponent's health line first, or kill them directly and send them home. If no one comes to stop me later, Doesn’t that mean you can move however you want?

Especially the idea of ​​bot lane is very exciting.

At this time, after a warm greeting between Jian Jian and Mata, Mata ended up with a small loss.

Because Mata's skills were directly twisted away by simple skills, but Mata fully absorbed the simple skills.

First, the Zephyr Guardian slowed him down and hit him twice, then a hurricane roared, knocking him up. Then, Jian Jian and Ah Shui kept up with the output at the same time, easily knocking him off. The blood line is depressed.

Although the opponent's legs also kept up with the output during this process, it was obvious that for Jian Jian and Ah Shui, his output burst was not that powerful.

So Simple and they can take it hard, but the opponent cannot directly rescue Mata, so now Simple and they directly take advantage, and after Mata's health line is suppressed by them, it will lead to them during the laning period. Occupied certain advantages.

When Karma's bloodline is unhealthy, and the initiative is now directly in the hands of Jian Jian and Ah Shui, they can move forward to suppress without restraint.

When facing them from the opposite side, there was no way to fight back, so now they were forced to retreat continuously.

But Jian Jian and the others pursued fiercely, causing their troops to be directly pressed under the defense tower. In this way, they completed the line suppression without realizing it. After a simple reminder, Ah Shui realized later. He followed him unconsciously and got into the river.

The people on the top and middle lines are still dueling each other at this time. At this time, Olaf and the opposite barrel are also constantly looking for each other's position. They are related to each other everywhere in the jungle. In this At the critical moment, Jian Jian and Ah Shui finally liberated themselves and came to the river. For Prince Ning, it was simply a huge blessing.

Earlier, he was thinking of waiting for his teammates to join him, but when Yan Jian and Ah Shui came over and told King Ning, he suddenly became enlightened.

At this time, there is no need to wait for everyone to come directly. At this time, the opposite side is directly blocked by the line of soldiers and cannot get through at all. They are constantly playing games with each other.

At this time, Jian Jian and Ah Shun did rely on their slight advantage online to mobilize first, so that they could move first in the follow-up.

Therefore, the three of them are directly together. They still have to wait closely. Regardless of whether the other party can get through, they must move the dragon first. If the other party moves, the two sides will immediately beat him up.

If the other party is too late, they will take advantage of the opportunity to take down Xiaolong. No matter how you look at it, it is a sure profit. How can they hesitate and waste precious time at this time?

Mainly because Kalma's condition is not very good, and on the other hand, Deft's clearing speed is not that fast.

As a result, Jian Jian and Ah Shui relied on their own better condition than the other to pin them directly under the defense tower, and then relied on the soldiers to directly block them under the defense tower, so that Deft could only eat under the defense tower. Tower knife.

But the tower knife is actually very comfortable and very uncomfortable for Ize.

It feels comfortable because he can basically take down all these soldiers without any pressure, but it feels uncomfortable because he is directly blocked by the minions at this time. He cannot clear them all quickly, and the opponent is You can take advantage of this free time to directly take down Xiaolong. How can you make him willing to do this?

It's just that at this moment, Deft really has no way to alleviate the situation he is facing, so he can only accept it painfully.

Looking at the opponent, Deft couldn't mobilize at all, and Mata was not in good condition at all. They knew that they actually didn't have enough capital to solve the dragon team battle this time, so after some discussion, they finally decided to put this one Xiaolong was abandoned directly.

Because if they want to fight in a group regardless, for them, when others have already taken the initiative, the dragon is basically in their pocket. When they actually fight in a group later, they actually have an assistant with residual health. So they don't have an advantage in terms of choice.

So for them, the follow-up is naturally predictable.

And with the existence of Feng Nu, even if Jace on their side can directly lower the opponent's status, but if Feng Nu activates her ultimate move and performs a group recovery to restore their reduced blood volume, then for kt It would be more uncomfortable.

And with the existence of Feng Nu, even if Jace on their side can directly lower the opponent's status, but if Feng Nu activates her ultimate move and performs a group recovery to restore their reduced blood volume, then for kt It would be more uncomfortable.

So after thinking about it, they finally decided to just wait and see what happens next. Anyway, it was just the second little dragon, and it had not yet reached the stage of listening to the dragon. Even if necessary, the third dragon It's not like Xiaolong can't give up.

When they reach the fourth dragon, they will have a decisive game with the opponent, and the time required is very long, so for them, having so much time to develop themselves can make their equipment much better. In this way, when one's own combat effectiveness is improved, the results will naturally be different.

What they can mainly rely on now is the Czar's equipment. Get better soon, and then they can deal tons of damage during team battles.

Instead of like the previous time, the Tsar is like a super soldier, basically doing nothing, so that when fighting in a group, the main output is placed on Jace and Ize.

This is naturally different from what they had imagined at the beginning. It’s just that the hero Tsar was like this in the early stages. Without equipment as support, his combat effectiveness was actually not as strong as imagined. Only in the middle and late stages, he had With the support of equipment, his sand soldiers have the ability to increase their magic power, and only after their output ability reaches the limit can they suppress the opponent at will.

Especially if the Tsar's equipment is good enough, he will be able to push someone over with a big move, and he will be half-healthy in an instant, and then a few sand soldiers can directly kill him with a casual poke.

And the biggest difference between the hero Tsar and other mage heroes is that his attack speed is very fast, so the attack frequency of the sand soldiers is naturally not comparable to that of other mage heroes.

It's just obvious that the tsar has not yet reached the stage of exerting his strength. He does not have any equipment to support him. At this time, he is just an ordinary super soldier.

Even the output ability is not as good as that of a super soldier. For the time being, all he can rely on is sand and ice, but sand has no magical power. As an increase, the damage is very limited.

When no one on each line could come over, Jian Jian, Ah Shui, and Ning Wang directly took down the second dragon without a single blow, and then separated.

It's just that Ah Shui was alone when he returned to the line. After all, it was enough for him to stay online alone at this time. It was simple. There was no need to follow him and continue to protect him.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to follow King Ning and go to several other lines to look for opportunities.

Seeing that Jian Jian didn't come back immediately made the other party's heart tighten. When Ah Shui was alone, Mata also left the lower route without stopping.

As a result, the situation became the same as before. The ADs on both sides pushed the army line back and forth, and then nothing happened.

No one can do anything to anyone, they can easily capture the line of troops, and there is basically no big danger.

However, without seeing a simple appearance, the middle and upper lines and the jungler were frightened at this time, fearing that someone would suddenly appear next to them and catch them directly. For them, It's become a normal thing.

This was the case several times before. Sometimes I was caught directly to death, and sometimes I appeared unexpectedly. But because I had the displacement skill, I could easily distance myself, but at any rate, I was shot out and flashed or moved. of.

Therefore, facing the simple disappearance of the line, it is like a signal to them, which means that when the follow-up time comes, they have to keep an eye on all directions and listen to all directions, for fear that they may not be aware of it in time by accident. In the case of simple movements, he was immediately caught to death by the opponent.

If the main player simply disappears, for them, it is equivalent to coming over to capture them directly, especially if they come with the jungler. After cooperating with the teammates on the line, the three of them can jump over the tower. That's enough.

Therefore, they may not be safe even if they stay under the defense tower. This is the most dangerous place for them.

But at this time, without knowing the specific movements of the other party, they could not act rashly, and it was even more unrealistic to return to the city.

Once you return to the city, it means abandoning all the troops and defense towers on the line. It has been more than ten minutes now. If you dare to leave casually, the opponent's equipment will advance faster than before. It's much faster, and the defense tower will have to lose at least half of its health.

If you only do this a few more times in the future, once the defense tower is pushed down directly, then people can invade your wild area at will, and the threat will skyrocket, and life will be even more difficult at that time.

Regarding this situation, Mata and others were constantly discussing how to break the game in the team chat.

Just thinking about it, they haven't been able to find a very suitable method. To put it bluntly, it's because at this time, the strength gap between them and the opponent is a little obvious, and the equipment gap between the two sides is not at the same level. , so it seems that the assistants on both sides have been roaming and following the jungler, but when it comes to doing things, the initiative is still in the hands of ig.

To put it bluntly, it is because King Ning's combat power at this time is more powerful than the combat power of their wine barrel, so the director's power at this time is naturally not on the same level.

Even if they encounter each other, for King Ning and the others, because their combat power is obviously stronger, they can forcefully advance in the encounter, and because their combat power is not enough, kt this If you meet IG personnel, you can only choose to retreat. From this point on, it has been decided what is the difference between the strength of the two.

Just because everyone played very strongly, and they were constantly advancing their troops while you were coming and going, so in fact no one could do anything to anyone, so after seeing Jian disappear, the other party was already on guard. Heart, in the case of returning home in time, there is not much that can be done at this time. The only thing is to stay with Prince Ning to achieve some deterrence to the other party.

At most, it is to lower the opponent's health line, or to use a key skill, and there will be no follow-up.

Because when the other party saw the two of them, they directly called Nosuke and them together. Then they simply asked them where to go, and Mata and the others were hanging far behind them.

If they want to attack them, these two people will retreat directly. If they want to arrest people elsewhere, these two people will continue to follow them and act as human flesh. bodyguard.

So much so that they simply find that they can't do anything.

Being stared at by the opponent all the time, and if time continues to drag on like this, kt can accept it.

Because they urgently need time to develop, but ig's jungler was very strong in the past, which made them cautious during the grape period, but now their own jungler has noticed the opponent's jungler. , which makes King Ning unable to do things, then they will naturally accept it.

Regarding this situation, Prince Ning seemed very helpless at this time. He looked at Jian Jian next to him and wanted to ask him if he had any solution.

It's just that for this situation, there is no good solution at this time. In the end, I drove away the two people on the opposite side, cleared my own jungle area, and then chose to return to the city for supplies.

After seeing that Jian Jian and the others chose to return to the city, the staff at kt finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This means that our side has finally withstood the opponent's offensive and bought our own personnel a long period of development period.

It's just that at this time, Mata didn't have a good face at all, because it seemed that he had repelled the people on the opposite side and bought them a valuable development time, but in fact, it was the reason why they returned to the city now. Supplies are to prepare for the next wave of team battles.

So after hearing deft's explanation, everyone in kt who was a little surprised at the beginning realized that the time had almost reached 14 minutes without even realizing it.

In the previous stage, they kept poking each other because of the little dragons, so they actually got the second little dragon relatively late. Now they were led by Jian Jian and the others for a period of time. As a result, everyone's attention All their efforts were concentrated on Simple and the others, but they forgot that the time period was about to enter 14 minutes, and the Canyon Pioneer was about to refresh.

The refresh of Canyon Pioneer means that there will be the next wave of resource team battles, which is naturally what ig wants.

On the other hand, the expressions of everyone in KT who looked a little happy just now did change at this time.

It was hard to get a little development period in the past, but now we have to fight in the Rift Pioneer team battle, which means that the little time we got is simply not enough, and may even be in vain.

Because at this time you can only take the initiative to pick up the group. Unlike Xiaolong, the Canyon Pioneer cannot be given up to them.

Once you give up the Rift Pioneer, it means that your own defense tower will be bulldozed by the opponent. No matter which tower is bulldozed, it means that the wild area will be subject to huge radiation.

And once the jungle area is lost, it means that they are not far from failure.

Therefore, at this time, whether you like it or not, you can only continue to fight with the opponent and see what happens next.

After Jian Jian and the others returned to the city to resupply, they directly chose to assemble near the Dalong Pit.

Because they knew that the Canyon Pioneer in the Big Dragon Pit was about to be refreshed, Kt's people did the same at this time. They didn't waste any time. After quickly clearing the line of soldiers in front of them, they also chose to return to the city and then move towards the Big Dragon. Pit assembly.

Therefore, the personnel on both sides began to collide near Dalong Pit again. However, it was obvious that no one had the time to directly target the opponent at this time. After controlling the nearby field of vision first, the two sides began to go back and forth. Confrontation.

For ig, they have the advantage of long hands, and the spirit demon girl is very flexible and can consume the opponent's blood line as she pleases.

As for kt, people in the upper and lower lines of their own can directly consume each other, so they are not in a hurry at this time and take the initiative to attack. Instead, they occupy the position from a distance, and then target their assistants from a super long distance. It's just that Jace's damage is always stretched, or directly offset, so that Smeb's face actually doesn't look good at this time.

Logically speaking, the distance of Jace's powerful artillery is very far and the speed is also very fast, so it is difficult to dodge. It's just because the ig personnel are very scattered and they are still moving around, so Jace It is also difficult for Si to aim at them accurately.

Especially because the distance is relatively long, when attacking a certain place, if someone moves around, it is easy to avoid his attack. This is why Jace's skill hit rate is not so high. .

The two sides were going back and forth, constantly fighting each other, and the damage done to each other was quite good.

Just because it was not fatal, no one was able to directly deal with the other party at this time, so that the two sides were still conducting the chosen exchange at this time.

But it is obvious that IG still has an advantage. Because of the presence of Feng Nu, it seems that their health line has been lowered partially, but if Feng Yu directly activates his ultimate move later, he can directly kill them. This part of the selection will be returned.

On the other hand, the kt personnel on the other side, although the reduction in blood volume does not seem to be that much, but what is consumed is consumed. With no way to replenish blood for the time being, when the blood volume is reduced, they can only Taking this damage abruptly will naturally lead to more and more losses in subsequent exchanges with the other party.

Although on the surface, it seems that the blood volume of both sides is actually about the same, they all know that this is just an illusion if Feng Nu's ultimate move is not handed over.

After Feng Nu's ultimate move is used, she can easily bring up the blood volume, so that she can widen the gap easily. The blood volume at this time is an illusion, and she is deliberately tempting them to take the initiative. Taking it out on the other person.

The price paid by both sides in order to compete for the pioneer of this canyon was very huge. In this case, they kept going back and forth against each other in the early stage, so that no one dared to take the initiative to hold hands at this time. A real team battle begins, because without absolute certainty of victory, once a team battle begins, no one can guarantee what the situation will be like.

Even though IG has an economic advantage, because the advantage is not as huge as imagined, they naturally do not have that much insurance.

The winning rate is only 90%, but doesn’t it mean it’s not safe?

Faced with this situation, deft felt very uncomfortable and sighed, but there was really no performance on his face at this time, and he was still attacking the opponent non-stop.

It's just that the most Ezreal can use is a secret skill shot. Other attacks basically cannot hit others, and after using the secret skill shot, he also needs to use arcane magic jump to ensure his own safety. , so that you cannot deal all your damage.

It is also because of this reason that he has been depleted and has not been able to perform any eye-catching operations. The single attack is high, but the attack frequency is obviously lower.

After all, he has no way to use others to reduce the cooldown time of his skills, so the output frequency at this time cannot be faster. This is not a duel. There is a large group of people standing opposite. Once he dares to move, be more confident. If you give the other party a chance, they will rush forward without any scruples to control it, and can easily take it away.

Deft himself has a clear understanding of this, and for this reason, he does not dare to take risks to give the other party any chance at this time.

At this moment, all he needs to do is to increase his consumption ability as much as possible, so that they can consume as much of the opponent's blood as possible before the team battle really starts. If the blood consumed is enough, even if Feng Nu wants to If you want to restore their health, but you can't bring them all back to full health, the consumption at this time is meaningful.

At this moment, deft clearly understands the significance of team battles to a team.

And what they need to do at this time is actually not to compete for the Canyon Pioneer. The primary purpose is to prevent ig from taking this Canyon Pioneer. The secondary goal is to win this Canyon Pioneer themselves.

Because preventing the opponent from getting the Rift Pioneer means that they have longer time to continue to delay and let their equipment develop and take shape. If the opponent directly gets the Rift Pioneer, the subsequent Rift Pioneer will directly knock down the defense tower, so for The impact on their developmental rhythms is huge.

Watching the two sides going back and forth, the fight was very exciting, but no one died. At this time, the audience just felt that it was very enjoyable to watch.

This is the real fight. Like the previous time, the civil war on the LCK side was just about something. It was just like the previous confrontation. You sent the troops over and I sent them over, but Other than that, there is no further information.

Basically, when their team battle begins, it means the game is over, and basically a wave of team battles determines victory or defeat.

The duel between these men should be a fist-fight, even if it is the same situation they are seeing now, so when they see this picture one by one, they only feel that it is very clear, even if they are fighting each other at this time The number of heads that broke out was relatively small, but it can only be said to be a game between two strong teams, so that no one took an obvious advantage.

Therefore, the number of heads was not as high as the previous loss, but the fighting between the two sides has never stopped. They are either looking for someone to fight, or they are on the way to find someone to fight, especially the linkage before Yan Fu. At this time, it is like It was just like brushing up the steps, leaving traces of them everywhere in the canyon.

Regarding this point, the audience watching the game live at this time has a very strong say. After all, the combination of King Ning and Simple, as well as the combination of Mata and Score, have gone around the jungle countless times.

Looking for the opponent's traces again and again, looking for the opponent's middle and upper position again and again, and specifically targeting them, isn't this a lot of steps?

(End of chapter)
