In the bottom lane versus the lane, there's actually nothing to say at this time. It's just you going back and forth, pushing each other forward.
Then there is the exchange of skills, but at this current point in time, there is nothing to say about skills.
Especially for two heroes like Kai'Sa and Xayah, there is nothing much to say at this time. They basically focus on laning.
When the junglers on both sides couldn't find any suitable opportunities, they basically hid in the jungle with no intention of showing up.
So much so that if this is for the respective personnel, they cannot be found at all.
Anyway, the choices of Ning Wang and Casa were highly consistent.
At this time, I don't have to take the initiative to do anything. Instead, my teammates are online. As long as I am stable, I will basically be able to perform adequately in the subsequent team fights.
When the situation reached this point, the gap between the two sides was not big, so it is naturally stable now.
The bottom lane matchup seems to be very intense, but because both sides have no skills and no equipment to support them, they just push the line of troops through, and then there is nothing more to do.
As for the two assistants, Jian Jian and Xiao Ming, they have little room to operate on the bottom route at this time, because to put it bluntly, their two hook heroes, except for making a hook, have no follow-up.
Therefore, during the duel between these two people, the help that can be provided is actually very limited.
Even at this time, the two of them did not dare to attack casually with the hook. If they were not careful, the person would indeed be hooked, but when their teammates followed up with the output, they might directly attract the person. , and then when playing in a group, I couldn't defeat the opponent.
However, the only advantage of ig is its simple existence, which makes the pressure on their side not as great as imagined.
Especially in terms of personal strength, the simple operation level is obviously more powerful than Xiao Ming.
Now it was time for Xiao Ming to hook Titan's hook, but he dodged it easily. Then he simply threw out a hook very skillfully. After passing through the gap between the soldiers, he accurately hit the target on the other side. On the puppy.
After seeing that he had hooked the person, Jian Jian did not hesitate at all, used his second level, and then tied him up directly.
After seeing that Jian Jian successfully controlled the puppy, Ah Shui next to him didn't have any doubts and immediately followed the output.
The reason why I didn't perform any actions at the first level was because it was simple and clear. At that time, except for a hook, I didn't have any skills, so even if I kept up with the output, there was nothing to follow.
But now that you have reached level two, you can use other skills besides hooks, so you can take advantage of this opportunity to directly help Ah Shui establish a certain advantage.
It can be clearly seen at this time that when Jian Jian gave control, Ah Shui immediately came out with a Void Search enemy and hit Xia's body, and then he stepped forward and output an Ekasia Heavy Rain, causing his The status is further depressed.
This is the only move he can do at this time. Just these two skills can defeat all his attacks.
In the follow-up, I can only rely on Ping A, but fortunately after taking advantage of it, I simply used my control skills to control the person, and then a pendulum of doom came and controlled the puppy again.
Then he also chose to retreat immediately, without giving Xiao Ming time to catch up and control.
Although the puppy said it was followed by a few clicks, these injuries were not painful or itchy at all.
The puppy looked very depressed. He clearly had the advantage in combat power in the front, but what he didn't expect was that after being caught by a simple opportunity and tied up, the next two people followed up with the output at the same time, giving him the power in the blink of an eye. After hitting a lot of blood lines and suppressing his condition, even if he had a slight advantage in the future, he still had to be cautious when facing Ah Shui.
I am afraid that I will give the opponent another chance and be caught like this. In fact, if I follow up and get beaten up like this, the situation may become completely different.
If he is directly given the advantage by Jian Jian and others during the matchup, this will not only affect his own development, but more importantly, they will be very uncomfortable in subsequent team fights.
As an important output point in the team, the position of the puppy at this time is naturally very critical, and it is not comparable to Ah Shui, who is positioned as a tool man.
And Jian Jian and the others just gave up when they got along. After beating each other violently, the two of them had a very tacit understanding and did not continue to go shopping.
With no skills on their bodies, when they stepped forward to attack at this time, it was just because they felt uncomfortable. In this case, they might as well take advantage of the current time to properly handle the military line. Wait until the skill cools down, then look for the right time to take action against the opponent.
The two sides went back and forth, and the fight was very lively, but again, there was no real harm.
Because their attacks at this time are not too fatal, all they can do is to slightly lower the opponent's state, but otherwise there is no effect.
After lowering the opponent's status bit by bit, all that needs to be done in the future is to expand their own results. This is something that Jian Jian and Ah Shui are very good at.
But the combination of puppy and Xiao Ming on the other side is equally familiar with this set.
After a series of blows, the subsequent fights between both sides were relatively conservative. No one dared to give him a chance directly at this juncture. They all thought that when they leveled up and the damage aspect improved, Naturally, there will be more effects that can be exerted in the future.
Regarding the situation on the field, at this moment, the only thing they can do is to grasp the ice soldiers in front of them and eat them as much as possible.
As for the rest, it has nothing to do with them at all.
At this moment, the only thing Jian Jian can do is to help Ah Shui establish a greater advantage. The rest is up to him.
But at this time, it was obviously unrealistic for Ah Shui to suppress the puppy's development.
Even if he was simply seized the opportunity to beat him violently earlier, resulting in the puppy's condition not being that good at this time, Ah Shui knew very well that the gap between his output ability and the opponent's performance was still very clear, so that this During the laning period, I was constantly being beaten by the opponent.
When things got to this point, it was actually very clear.
Ah Shui really recognized the gap between himself and the opponent, so that in the follow-up, he could only do last-minute hits without daring to think about anything more.
Only when he takes the initiative to take action, he will follow suit and consume the opponent's blood line. As long as he does not take action, he will never do anything extra, causing him to attract the other party's attention. Enough ability can solve all this.
After completing these things, all that needs to be faced now is that the jungler may come to catch him later.
But because everything near the river is a business arranged by Jian Jian, they are not afraid of Casa coming to arrest them.
On the contrary, it is the puppies. They need to be careful at this time, because because they are pressing the line, King Ning may come to cause trouble for them, so they will also slow down their attack rhythm in the future.
After all, if you suppress it without thinking and push the troops forward, it will give the opponent jungler the opportunity to take action. Regarding this problem, the puppy has experienced countless times, so he is naturally very cautious at this time.
"It can be clearly seen that Ah Shui was suppressed by the puppy when he faced the puppy alone without taking any action. This is also a very rare scene for us. After all, he usually I saw that the ig bottom lane combination beat the opponent violently when they started the game. Now, it is the first time that I have been suppressed in a personal battle."
There were no problems online for the time being, so for the commentators, it seemed like they had nothing to do for a while, so they couldn't help but comment on the laning on the field.
Usually, what the commentators often see is a well-made bottom lane combination, which directly pushes the opponent out of the experience zone in a minute or two, but now to their surprise, they are uncharacteristically. , was directly suppressed by the combination of the puppy named Xiao Ming.
"There is no way. This time the puppy got Xayah, a hero that he is very good at. On the other hand, Ah Shui got Kai'Sa, who was weak in the early stage, so when facing Xayah, it was obviously difficult to do anything. Get things done.
As for the IG bottom lane combination, the reason why it was able to play very strongly in the early stage was largely because Jian Jian would help suppress them together at that time, so that when the two opponents faced them, they could only passively take the beating.
But this time, after simply taking a Thresh, there was no consumption power, so that all the pressure was borne by Ah Shui himself, and the result was the current situation. "
Regarding the situation on the court, Doll Miller and the others still saw it very clearly, so they briefly explained why ig's bottom lane combination was suppressed by the opponent at this time.
But it seems that the bottom lane is suppressed at this time, but in terms of the upper, middle and jungle, it is obvious that the advantage gained by IG is still very clear.
This can be seen from the economic curves of both sides. Unknowingly, just during the laning period, ig already had a lot of economic advantages.
In the case where no one was killed, at this time point, we can have such an advantage, naturally because at this time, the top two people rely on their strong personal strength, and they have already made up for it during the laning period. A leader in knives.
That's why the economy unknowingly surpassed that of the other side. This is actually a very scary thing, but if you think about it carefully, it is very normal for such a situation to occur.
Because this is not the first time this has happened. In several duels in the summer and spring splits, this situation often happened between the two lanes in the middle and top.
So after thinking about it, such a performance is not surprising at all.
Both sides of the middle lane are tightly suppressing them. As for the bottom lane, being able to maintain a stable laning at this time is already acceptable for ig.
On the other hand, from another person's point of view, at this time, the top lane needs to be stable and the bottom lane needs to be suppressed as much as possible. It is just because Ah Shui blindly chooses to avoid the battle that the puppy wants to attack him at this time. It is not that easy to suppress it as much as you want.
Therefore, at this time, both sides naturally chose to distance themselves, so no one could do anything to the other.
Time passed little by little, and at this time, for the people on both sides, it had reached a relatively critical node.
That is the dragon refresh.
At this current time point, the dragon's refresh means that if something goes wrong in a small-scale team battle, it may directly lead to a 5 V5 team battle.
Ah Shui retreated immediately to avoid being attacked by the light from the opposite side, because Jian Jian was already heading towards the river.
They began to lay out their vision there, preparing to join up with King Ning. Therefore, for them, if Ah Shui stayed on the line alone, it would be an excellent opportunity for Xiao Qiao and Xiao Ming to take action.
But now that they simply left Ah Shui and deliberately retreated to give up their position, it was naturally not that easy for Xiao Ming and Xiao Ming to take action against him in the future.
Because of this, they did not specifically target them at this time, but immediately headed towards the river, hoping to seize the prophet.
When no one can open up the situation, the only thing that can be done is to find ways to seize some resources in the wild area so that one can obtain greater benefits as much as possible.
If they can unknowingly widen the gap with the opponent, they will naturally be able to live a relatively comfortable life. Looking at the alignment of the middle and upper lines, the puppy clearly knows that his side is obviously economical at this time. There should be a slight disadvantage.
Because when two people on my side were facing each other, the last hit was directly suppressed by the opponent.
Although our side has a slight advantage, it is almost negligible. Therefore, the team's economy in the middle and upper lanes is obviously suppressed by the opponent.
But this is not a big deal. At most, it is only a few hundred dollars behind, which is actually acceptable to them.
Now for the puppies, as long as they can get some important resources in the team battle, they can make up for the lost things, giving them an advantage or completing a few kills. Basically, this Everything can be solved easily.
After King Ning cleared his wild area, he also joined them directly at this time. However, he did not dare to move a small dragon rashly when he did not know the specific location of the opposite kasa.
What's more, even if they know the location of Casa at this time, but the people on the opposite side have already come directly, if they touch Xiaolong casually, they may be directly trapped in the middle. This is obviously not a good situation. A good thing.
Every time you want to use this kind of important resource in the wild area, you have to drive away the opponent's personnel first. Then you can collect the important resources of the little dragon or the canyon pioneer baron without any pressure. .
Otherwise, when you are fighting, if someone surrounds you and makes dumplings for you, it will not only kill the people on your side, but more importantly, they will also take the opportunity to directly kill important people in the wild area. Resources were wiped out.
This obviously means that everything you did before was just making wedding dresses for others.
In addition to the bottom lane and jungler starting to meet nearby, the middle lane tiger also started to move at this time.
Knowing that you can't beat Rookie in the lane, you might as well take action first to join up with your teammates, and then see if you can find a suitable time to attack the opponent directly.
When the hero Tsar has a big move, it is reasonable to push people back when the time comes, but this is obviously impossible.
Because no one has reached level 6 at this time, no one has a big move, so it is impossible for the Czar to have a big move to push people back.
On the other hand, IG is not in a hurry at this time.
He just dealt with the line of troops in front of him and pushed it under the opponent's defense tower, allowing Xiaohu to lose this wave of troops. Then he stepped back and walked into his own defense tower.
Then after walking around for a while, he walked out from the side and entered the jungle. He and a few people from ig entered the parliament and looked forward to each other across the river. At this time, everyone was ready to make a move and wanted to take action directly against the other party.
If they can get rid of the opponent first, they will obviously have a big advantage in the future.
At this time, it also seemed a bit difficult for everyone in RNG.
Because for the time being, they don't have enough power to move the other side, especially when they have certain advantages, it is unrealistic to rashly move them.
After each side arranged some visions, they began to use skills and tentative attacks.
But the strength at this time was directly revealed.
At the current time point, Enchantress's development is pretty good, and coupled with his mobility, he can move among the crowd very flexibly, so that he often rushes into the crowd on the opposite side. They dealt with them for a while, and then directly distanced themselves, so that when faced with this situation, it was extremely annoying for the puppies.
Every time the Enchantress rushes over to directly deal damage to them, lowering their bloodline, and in addition, when they want to counterattack later, they can't even touch the sides of the opponent, so that Wanting to fight back is just a luxury.
As well as continuously consuming the opponent's blood line, Ah Shui was also using his own Void Lock to draw prizes at this time.
It would be best if you can touch someone, draining the opponent's blood line, and at the same time stacking plasma for yourself. If you can't hit them, it doesn't matter, it's just an attempt anyway.
In addition, at this time, simplicity actually seems a bit eager to try.
If the opponent enters his attack range, its hook will pose a huge threat to the opponent.
Both sides are looking forward to the opposite hook, but one difference is that Titan's hook may hit the wall, while Thresh's hook will never have such a situation.
After all, Thresh's image is actually more about playing with the soul.
The two sides started to fight around the little dragon, but they were thrown here and there with various skills.
However, no one was able to do anything to defeat the other, so that after the two sides had been entangled for a long time, they were unable to form a stable situation.
Various skills are thrown around, and then the opponent's state is suppressed. In addition to the people on the ig side who can consume, they naturally have no consumption ability on the other side.
Whether it is a puppy or a tiger, they are both long-range heroes with long hands, so they can still kill some time, but they are not as good as compared with ig.
Faced with this situation, Puppy and the others seemed to be very patient at this time. After all, although Xia's hands were shorter, if he caught a barb and trapped people in place, it would be hard to predict what would happen next.
Both sides took action one after another, directly lowering the health of the opponent. At first, it was just a tentative move, and then they were looking for opportunities to see if they could give themselves a sufficient opportunity.
But now, as both sides have suffered varying degrees of damage to their masters due to health, status, etc., the follow-up will naturally have to be concentrated together, and this is the opportunity that Jian Jian is looking for. , so he saw the right moment and threw the hook directly.
As Thresh's hook was thrown up, and then hooked on the Tsar, the follow-up seemed to cause a chain reaction. The personnel on ig's side immediately followed the output, and RNG's side also directly counterattacked.
So much so that the two sides fought extremely hard. If it was just a tentative attack at the beginning, now it is a real melee.
At the same time that he passed by, Jian Jian threw a lantern next to Ah Shui, but his fundamental purpose was not to make Ah Shui pick up the lantern and come over to help him.
After all, he is just a little crispy guy. If something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome. Simply put, this lantern was actually thrown to Prince Ning.
King Ning also lived up to expectations. After seeing the lantern, he lit it up immediately, and was then pulled into the crowd. The reason why he asked King Ning to come over was because he was worried that he would be activated by a few people on the opposite side, easily. It needs to be solved, so someone needs to help him attract some firepower.
The melee was very fierce, it came and went very quickly.
From the beginning to the end, only twenty or thirty seconds passed, and then everything fell into place.
In the end, they simply lost the battle.
Yes, although there were no casualties, in the end due to poor condition, Jian Jian chose to give up the fight for this little dragon.
This is the first time since they came on the field that they have been at a disadvantage in the early game.
Many spectators who watched the finals were very surprised by this result.
Because in their impression, such a situation has never happened before.
IG has always shown an invincible attitude. No one expected that the opponent could rely on the advantage of the bot lane and the lane, and the opponent actually won this wave of small-scale team battles.
"The main reason is that the selection of junglers is different, so in the past, King Ning's combat power was relatively weak, which made him less able to provide much help. Therefore, the subsequent output pressure of double C has always been concentrated on Rookie is on his own.
After all, Ah Shui's Kai'Sa has not developed yet at this time, so the output ability is very limited. On the other hand, although the opponent's Czar is relatively averagely developed, it has been continuously outputting at this time. In the team battle just now, the puppy's The output is directly filled up, so the follow-up can affect this wave of team battles. "
What's the situation like on the field? The commentators are naturally well aware of it. Because they know what the situation is, they understand that when the combat strength of ig's personnel has not really increased, they will naturally suffer more when facing each other. .
After winning this wave of team battles, Puppy and the others pocketed the first dragon each time. After the IG personnel retreated, they directly chose to return to the city for supplies.
It's not that they didn't see the position of the military lines, but they knew very well that if they were greedy to deal with these military lines at this time, they would suffer even more losses when the time comes.
Therefore, when it's time to make a choice, you should make it decisively and not be indecisive, let alone hesitant.
In fact, the failure of this wave of team battles was already thought of by Jian Jian from the beginning, but he did not guide or destroy it.
For him, the stage for him is not during the laning period. At least when Ah Shui has enough output ability, he will not leave voluntarily for the time being because Ah Shui's condition is too bad. .
After going back to replenish their equipment and replenishing their own status, they returned to the line. However, when faced with the combination of puppy and Xiao Ming, everyone at ig still seemed a little wary after all.
Fortunately, in the last round, the opponent did not get any head advantage, so for them, it was still acceptable after all.
When he returned to online again, as his level increased, it was not so easy for the puppy to continue to suppress Ah Shui's development.
Especially now that they have leveled up and are easily controlled like before, the prospects are very bad for them.
In terms of flexibility, it is obvious that Titan and Thresh are not on the same level at all.
Xiao Ming is also very clear about this, but for him at this time, he needs to suppress as much as possible so that he can open up the situation online and take over the team battle if he has enough advantage. So he must seize every opportunity to strengthen himself.
Even though his relationship with Ah Shui was very good, at least for him, fighting at this time was relatively comfortable.
At this moment, the camera suddenly and quickly shifted to the road.
I only saw that the duel between the two people on the top lane has entered a fierce stage, and Ornn's health is already in danger.
Theshy then continued to step forward and easily defeated his last bit of health, causing him to complete a solo kill online and also gain his first kill.
“I completed a wave of solo kills on the road, which is quite unexpected for ig.
The first kill came so long after the duel started. "
“But after completing this single kill on the top lane, the lead gained was huge.
Especially after going home for repairs, the output on both sides will become even more wrong. This is obviously a huge hidden danger.
But fortunately, let me controls an Ornn after all, so even if something happens later, as long as he can contribute the equipment he built during the team battle, he has basically completed his mission.
So at this time, I can still accept a little bit of things.
I think Ornn is successful as long as he is not suppressed by the opponent for more than 30 times. "
Speaking of the situation on the road, the commentary was also very clear at this time. On the one hand, it was due to the hero, and on the other hand, the gap between the players' own strength was indeed not small, so there would be single kills, or it was due to their own mistakes. Otherwise, it will be crushed by hard power.
When the situation reaches this point, it is excellent news for ig.
After all, in a situation where no one could open up the situation, the top laner completed a solo kill at this time, which led to a considerable lead in the matchup.
In this way, as long as they continue to walk step by step, the situation will obviously be very comfortable for them.
On the other hand, RNG needs to bear the offensive pressure at this time.
Their advantage is mainly concentrated in the bottom lane. If the bottom lane can't stand up, the rest of them will be useless. Now something like this has happened again.
As a result, the opponent's top lane equipment has been improved. For others, it will be more difficult to face the opponent's top laner's offensive during the duel.
It's just that their actions have no impact on IG at all.
Therefore, in the follow-up, the upper two people fought as they should, and they never stopped suppressing the opponent.
Especially in the middle lane, although there was no single kill on Xiaohu, relying on the characteristics of the hero and the lead in personal strength, he was still crazy about taking lanes at this time.
As a result, the little tiger tsar was constantly beaten and miserable when he faced him, and the economic gap between the two sides widened a lot. This was why.
After all, the enchantress is very flexible. She will attack from time to time, and then run away directly after finishing the attack. Even though Xiaohu claims to have suffered damage from the opponent, he has no way to take the opportunity to fight back, and the result is pure loss.
The middle line is very critical for any team.
Once the middle lane falls into a disadvantageous state, the opponent will directly radiate its advantages to the outside world. It is so clear now.
So it seemed like there was no matchup kill, but in fact Rookie's lead was already huge.
He has slowly begun to radiate these advantages he possesses into the jungle, making King Ning live very comfortably in the jungle.
After occasionally cleaning up his wild monsters, he would also sneak into the opposite wild area to study the natural plants.
It's just that whether the Casa being studied is willing or not is another matter.
However, Prince Ning didn't care what Kasa thought at this time, he just went his own way and did his own thing.
So much so that there was a wave of encounters between the two sides directly in the wild area.
Then their respective mid laners went over to help, but at this time, the Enchantress's combat power was obviously stronger, which completely tilted the situation in the direction of ig.
The middle and jungle collided directly in the jungle, but it was obvious that ig was stronger here.
Therefore, Kasa and Xiaohu could only choose to retreat. As a result, Kasa watched his f6 being directly eaten by the opponent, and his heart was bleeding.
But there was nothing he could do, so he could only dive into another wild area of his own and eat the remaining wild monsters as quickly as possible to avoid giving the opponent a chance.
In the opposite jungle area, although they only grabbed a wave of f6, which was actually the amount of four small soldiers, for King Ning, it was like snatching food from a tiger's mouth. If he ate this group, it would mean that the opponent Those who don’t have it eat.
Between an increase and a decrease, it is equivalent to eight CS hits.
So he was quite satisfied with this kind of harvest.
And Jian Jian competed with the puppy Xiao Ming on the lower route. At the beginning, he did not move very much. In fact, he wanted to put some pressure on Ah Shui, but naturally he could not stay nearby to do it later. A pendant.
From time to time, he will attack frequently, and every time he goes out, he will naturally be able to imprison people directly.
Then Ah Shui cooperated with him to output, knocking out a lot of the puppy's health every time.
After a few more visits, the puppy also seemed to have a very headache.
The cooperation between the two on the opposite side is indeed very good. They obviously got a weak hero like Kai'Sa in the early stage, but through output again and again, they still performed such a dazzling operation.
After the blood volume was suppressed, the subsequent puppies did not dare to suppress it as unscrupulously as before.
Because he also knows very well that if he plays too aggressively at this time and gives the opponent a chance, not to mention being killed by the opponent's lane, once he is touched by the opponent's jungler, he will basically give it in vain.
He was very clear about this in his heart, so he could only choose to distance himself in the future and not give him the chance to continue. As for Xiao Ming, although he said he was by his side, when Thresh was about to take action against AD , when Titan faced him, there was really nothing he could do.
Now I am relatively satisfied with the situation of manufacturers.
On the one hand, it is because of the great situation that we are in, and on the other hand, it is because some of our plans are slowly being realized, so where is there any dissatisfaction?
After a simple performance, Ah Shui finally felt a little more comfortable when he lasted.
Unlike the previous time, you had to be prepared for a back-to-back beating every time you went for a last-ditch hit. Now this situation no longer exists at all.
But it must be mentioned that the puppy's laning suppression power is indeed very terrifying. Even if it is simple, every attack is coordinated with Ah Shui to suppress his state, so that he does not dare to suppress it unscrupulously in the future.
But just taking advantage of his stuck power, distance, etc. to attack Ah Shui made him exhausted.
After all, there is still a certain gap between the two in terms of laning.
Even if Jian Jian comes to help, there is no way to completely solve everything.
So Ah Shui still has to suffer when he deserves it. Even if his strength is not as good as others, you have to endure the beatings.
Because other people were also looking at them at this time, and thinking about the other teams in front of them who were facing them, but were easily solved by them, so that they could only silently acknowledge that it was the same now. treatment.
The shot of the bottom lane just flashed by, because the two sides have not opened up the situation, and then they were reduced to reasoning about their own lines. Therefore, at this time, for the director, the middle and upper lines are more exciting.
Especially at this time in the middle, the hearty battle has never stopped.
The enchantress relies on her high mobility to frequently harass Xiaohu's tsar. Even though the tsar has soldiers who can attack her at a certain distance, but obviously his own strength is relatively average, for rookie For him, this enchantress can come and go without a trace, without giving him any chance to win.
The result was continuous suppression in the middle, lowering the Czar's health line bit by bit.
As a result, he just continued to follow up step by step, but before he knew it, the last hit had reached a lead of more than 20 knives.
It may seem like just over 20 kills is nothing, but in fact at this point in time, being able to have more than 20 CS kills in a matchup, the lead itself is a very exaggerated number, which means that during the laning period, At that time, there was an economic gap of several hundred.
But that's just the end of it, because there is no way to go further. Without the jungler to help, it is still very difficult for Rookie to kill Xiaohu alone.
It seems that Xiaohu is more experienced, but after all, his strength and skills are here. When facing people he is familiar with, his performance is relatively good.
If he were facing players from other divisions at this time, his strength might be greatly reduced due to the unfamiliar situation. However, when facing this familiar person, he knew very well what kind of strength the opponent had. , what kind of style and habits, so it is naturally not that difficult to respond in a targeted manner at this time.
