Although Edg had expected the choice of Counter on the fifth floor of the kt team and was mentally prepared in advance, when the lineups of both sides were finally finalized, Meiko's expression became much more serious.
He still chose Bobby and was already prepared for the early discomfort.
And not only him, but also Li Luo will be greatly affected. After all, adc and support are bound together. Pointing out the problems of one of them alone is no different from being a hooligan.
Choosing Poppy, from a tactical perspective, Poppy can perfectly limit the kt team’s only AD output point Qianjue in team battles. At the same time, it is also a big deterrent to Akali’s entry, even Galio , as long as he cannot touch the core point of edg immediately, he will be hindered by Poppy when he needs to use his e skill to close in and control.
From a strategic point of view, as long as this edg can still win, then kt will not be able to let Bobby go, which can swing in three directions. By then, kt's ban position will be even tighter, and some of them Heroes you don't want to see will also be forced to be released, and EDG's tactics will be more flexible.
Winning this one is the key.
Ten people from both sides quickly entered the Summoner's Rift. Neither of them chose to invade at level 1. EDG lacked the ability to take the initiative, but its victory was good at pulling. In contrast, the KT team's lineup obviously had offensive pressure. This game What EDG has to do in the game is to defend in the early stage and operate steadily to delay the situation of the game.
Ryze, Sword Demon, and Xiao Pao, these three C-positions all show an upward curve in the later stage. Ryze’s output ability, Sword Demon’s frankness and shit-making ability, plus the ability of Xiao Cannon after reaching level 18, Possessing terrifying range, these factors all prove the strength of edg's lineup in the later stage.
Counting the rock bird that drives the rhythm in the early stage and still does good damage in the later stage, this edg's lineup has a full 4 carry points.
In contrast, the kt team's lineup only has Kindred, a hero with an infinite growth curve. Akali has to consider cutting in, and deft's Crow also has to consider whether his relatively cumbersome mage hero can defeat Cannon and Poppy when the opponent has it. Achieve full output under the restriction of double ultimate moves.
Therefore, there is still pressure on this kt.
But it must be mentioned that kt's bottom lane combination is quite relaxed in the laning, but edg's middle and upper lanes have no pressure in the early 1v1 laning. Can they drive the team's rhythm? It still depends on the early rhythm of both junglers.
In the early days, Meiko and Li Luo successfully grabbed the line rights by being on the line first, but Kindred was a thief. After the red opened and cleared all the monsters in the upper half of the wild area, Kindred did not touch the wild monsters in the lower half of the jungle. Instead, a wave of bot lane came directly from level 3.
Mata's barrel used his own flash e to belly bump into Poppy, successfully replacing Poppy's flash.
Playing Poppy's flash is actually secondary. The real purpose of the kt team is to restrict the small artillery from pushing this wave of soldiers into the defense tower.
Mata's move of switching from flash to flash was indeed effective. When the EDG duo was forced to retreat, Qian Jue showed up, making it even more difficult for the EDG bottom lane duo to deal with the troops.
"It's a bit troublesome, they still have a plan."
Meiko shook her head with a complicated expression.
Both he and Li Luo have tried their best to push the line crazily. Heroes like Xiaopao will not release the line if they can in the early stage. Once someone pushes the line under the defense tower and is forced to resist the pressure, it is considered a professional It will be difficult for players to use small cannons to supplement tower knives.
The essence of the combination of crows and barrels lies in their consumption ability.
The wine barrel uses the q skill barrel to slow down any one of the edg bottom lane duo, which will provide the crow with an opportunity to supplement the control with the e backhand.
And once hit by Crow's E skill, what follows is a set of small combos from WQ that explodes and consumes.
This was just before level 6.
Once it reaches level 6, if the crow controls someone, the wine barrel can directly throw the ultimate move to blow the controlled person back.
The weakness of the small cannon in the early stage destined that the bot lane of this edg would not be very comfortable without the help of the jungle. It was already very good for edg to maintain the push mode in the early stage. However, Kindred's timely arrival still made edg laning. We lost a few soldiers along the way.
Fortunately, Mingkai is also aware of this. This Mingkai and score belong to the same half of the field, but Mingkai used an extra set of f6, so he came a little late.
After Ming Kai arrived, Qian Jue had no choice but to retreat unwillingly.
However, as Qian Jue's passive refreshed on the river crabs in the upper half, both edg and kt smelled an opportunity.
Score's face is not very pretty.
In this wave, he helped the bottom lane get stuck, causing their bottom lane troops to gradually accumulate.
If his passive refresh position is in the lower half of the area, then his two-man lane can provide him with assistance.
But now it has reached the top half...
Ryze and Sword Demon both have the right to push the lane. It may be difficult for him to get this crab.
The most critical thing about Kindred as a hero is his passivity.
When the number of passive layers reaches 4, Kindred will undergo a qualitative change.
After a bad start, Score felt like he was unlucky.
Mingkai is a thief.
After knowing that he was passively brushing in the upper half, he did not rush to get it. Instead, he cooperated with his own Sword Demon to push back Qian Jue, and took down the river crab in the lower half, followed by Jin who was on the road. After Gong quickly cleared the line and emptied his own mana, he went home to replenish his supplies and directly landed on the field of vision left by the grass in the river on the top road.
Jin Gong, who landed on TP, used his fastest solo to kill the river swift crab in the upper half of the jungle.
EDG controlled the Twin River Crabs, and Mingkai returned to the city comfortably to resupply after clearing the stone men and red buffs in the lower half.
"Edg's early rhythm is very good."
Guan Zeyuan looked at the situation on the field and sighed.
"Brother Luo's commanding ability is nothing short of amazing. When I listened to the microphone before, he could even cut the screen when lining up in the bottom lane and see the middle lane in the river to do the vision, and he could do it even when the vision disappeared. Come out, although it may not be like this in every wave, but as long as there is a wave of this kind of behavior, it is possible to create a wave of opportunities for the team.”
Miller sighed: "It's just that Luo Ge's line-up is not very comfortable. The small cannon is still a little weak in the early stage, and the line of troops is now being pushed back."
"Yeah, let's see how many tower knives will be missed in Brother Luo's wave. If he only misses two or three, then the last hits of both sides will be equal. After all, Deft is an AP hero, and he is consuming in pushing the lane. In the process, it is inevitable that soldiers will be missed.”
Guan Zeyuan said, and the director also switched the camera to the bottom lane at the right time.
It seems that Li Luo will attract attention even if he repairs a tower sword.
At this time, there were a total of one artillery soldier, six long-range soldiers, and three melee soldiers entering the defense tower.
When the troops entered the tower, Li Luo first hit the melee soldier on the side during the gap between his two defensive attacks on the first melee soldier.
Then, after killing the first melee soldier, the splash damage also knocked off some of the health of the minion that Li Luo had hit before.
Immediately after, Li Luo waved his hand and handed over the explosive spark of the e-skill to the ranged soldier. He turned and moved to avoid the crow's e-skill, and then opened Q to accelerate and hit the explosive spark with his backhand.
When the artillery soldier's health was about to bottom out, explosion sparks exploded.
Most of the long-range soldiers and the artillery soldiers turned into gold coins and sank into Li Luo's cannon when detonated by the cannon's E skill.
Then Li Luo raised his hand to hit the healthier one of the two melee soldiers. As the defense tower locked the target on the melee soldier that was consumed by Li Luo, Li Luo raised his hand to kill it, using splash The damage from the shot combined with the previous attack knocked the last melee soldier to half health.
With a click of the defense tower, Li Luo easily pocketed it.
The remaining long-range soldiers were not affected by the splash damage of the small cannon's E skill because they were too scattered.
Li Luo, take it all.
It was just an ordinary wave of tower knives, but it caused waves of commotion at the scene.
"Full replenishment... So in this case, Luo Ge's small cannon's replenishment attack actually surpasses the crow?"
Guan Zeyuan's mouth twitched.
Of course he knew that it was possible for the small artillery to hit the tower with all the damage, but looking at Li Luo's relaxed attitude as if he was drinking water... he began to wonder if he and Li Luo were playing the same game. He would understand if Li Luo often played tricks.
But Li Luo has only used Xiao Pao a handful of times, and he rarely plays heroes like Xiao Pao when watching his live broadcast or ranking.
So how did he manage to use a small cannon to repair the tower knife so easily and freely?
deft was a little confused when he saw this scene, but he quickly came to his senses.
Unexpected and reasonable.
He is shine, it doesn't matter even if he does it.
deft thought in his mind.
The two sides seemed to be calm on the surface, but in fact, the initial calm with turbulent undercurrents was eventually broken.
The junior in the middle was going to push the lane back to the city, so after using q1 and q2, he also handed over q3.
As for the hero Sword Demon, players usually try their best to avoid handing over Q3 when they are online.
Just use q1 and q2 to clear troops, because once q3 is handed over, the CD of Sword Demon's Q skill will be very long. If not handed over, the CD will be about four seconds shorter than if it is handed over.
This was already an exaggerated number in the early stage.
In order to push the line back to the city, there is nothing wrong with the junior high school student handing over and cleaning up the last line.
But this is the kind of opportunity kt seizes.
Galio directly used his E skill to pull him closer, and the younger brother used his E skill simultaneously to pull away a short distance to avoid being hit by Galio's E skill.
But Galio's charged W forced the junior to flash out.
kt didn't pursue it deeply. Ucal's game was a psychological game.
The appearance of Qian Jue is the main reason for tearing apart the inner defense of the younger students.
If you are ridiculed, you may not be able to hand it over if you dodge again. The junior student took this into consideration, so he chose to hand it over in advance to be safe.
However, Mingkai also produced the desired effect at this time.
His rock bird appeared on the road.
The rock bird who goes home and makes shoes first will move very quickly by using his passive movement while sticking to the wall.
When Qian Jue appeared in the middle lane, Mingkai followed the jungle area and directly followed the entrance near the middle lane with a wave of darkness under the lights, and quietly groped into the upper half of the red side's wild area.
After sticking to the wall and reaching the top lane, Mingkai launched an offensive.
Jin Gong, who had known that Ming Kai was coming on the road before this, began to exchange levels with Akali.
Smeb's operation was good. Even if Ryze used ewq's shield to offset part of his damage, he still consumed half of Ryze's health, achieving an equal health consumption despite his short hands.
But in this wave of smeb, he didn't expect that Ming Kai would appear in the rear. Secondly, Jin Gong's operations were indeed very delicate.
Taking advantage of the spell surge characteristics of the e skill, Jin Gong unexpectedly released the spell surge on the minions, causing the spell surge to splash onto Akali.
Then, at the moment when the effect of the E skill's surge of spells was about to disappear, a sudden and decisive W shot Akali was stopped in place.
This is an enhanced W with a surge of spells, which has extremely strong control over time.
The moment Ryze crossed paths, Smeb had already reacted, and the Xia Formation was released.
But he was still frozen after all, and Mingkai also knew Akali's specific location clearly.
Rock protrusion, pick up eq!
Coupled with Ryze's set of bursts and Minkai's Rock Bird's burst, Akali, who was about half full of health, was instantly wiped out after being electrocuted by Rock Bird.
He didn't even have time to hand over his flash, and he died suddenly on the spot.
first blood!
First blood is born.
The faces of the Korean audience at the scene were not very good.
They only caught one Flash here.
But edg directly took first blood.
They were the first to suffer setbacks in the early stages.
Although they feel uncomfortable, the audience will also comfort themselves from other perspectives.
The three Korean commentators in the commentary box also turned their attention to other places while sighing and wowing.
One of the commentators said slowly: "Take your time, at least our bottom lane is not a disadvantage. When facing Shine players, it is not a disadvantage but it is already an advantage."
"Yes, it is relatively safe for deft to get this type of mage hero. I can trust him."
Another commentator seconded.
However, at this moment, the director's camera suddenly switched to the bottom lane.
What everyone saw was a picture of a crow with less than a quarter of its HP dodging and escaping.
"Haigu?!"
The Korean commentators in the commentary box were instantly down.
what's the situation?
The last second they were discussing that the bottom lane was at least not a disadvantage, why did it disappear in the blink of an eye?
At the same time, Deft on the battle table was also shocked into a cold sweat.
I thought this one would be less stressful.
But now his pressure has become dull.
This wave is a coordinated battle between the small cannon in hammer form and Poppy in cannon form.
When the small cannon w took off and hung explosive sparks on itself in mid-air, deft immediately turned over e to try to restrain Li Luo's small cannon.
At the same time, Mata also handed over her belly and bumped towards Xiaopao.
But Bobby simultaneously used e to move to the front of the cannon with the help of the soldier's position, and at the same time activated w to intercept the barrel's belly.
And the fatal flaw of the hero Crow was also exposed.
That is, his e skill will only control the farthest target.
There were exactly two soldiers behind the w landing point chosen by Li Luo's small cannon.
The two soldiers were held on the spot by Crow's e-skill, but Li Luo's cannon was agile and free.
If deft hadn't handed over the flash in time to avoid the fourth shot of cannon A, which detonated the explosive sparks, then this wave of deft would have even been life-threatening!
Look at the ferocity of the shooter. 8.2...m. :
