Chapter 46 The light boat has passed through thousands of mountains! My name is Tzun, remember! [Seeking monthly votes]
After a while, the top three players of both sides came out.
RNG: Ornn, Poppy, Draven.
TES: Ice Girl, Corki, and Poppy who stays up late.
"RNG actually banned two top laners in a row. Apparently, Tzun's Poppy, who was the first player to leave a legendary collection, put a lot of pressure on them. RNG was already very difficult to deal with when dealing with Tzun."
"Until now, even RNG, who have won two consecutive championships, dare not underestimate Tzun's Poppy."
"As for Goat, this is Tzun's most used trump card this season, and it's no surprise that he's consistently banned."
Wang Duoduo commented.
Hearing this, I remember agreeing:
"Yes, compared to Poppy, perhaps because Tzun's performance in the past month has been so outstanding, other teams have also seen the value of Goat. Once this hero develops to level 14, his contribution to the team is very high. I think one of the main reasons is that the value increase of Mythical equipment after being upgraded to 'Masterpiece' by Goat is much higher than that of Legendary equipment."
"The extra stats undoubtedly make Goat's strategic position even higher. Once it's released, TES will have no reason not to choose it."
Wang Duoduo said:
"On the other hand, Top Esports put all their BP resources into restricting the mid lane. Xiaohu's Corki and Poppy, who performed exceptionally well in the Spring Split and MSI, were both banned. The all-around Lisbon player was also banned. This left Xiaohu with very limited options."
"Yes, the most important thing is that he can't choose Galio yet, because there is no ban on Sylas. Once Galio is taken out, it will be good for Sylas."
The two leading LPL commentators were analyzing the situation nonstop.
On the field, both sides have been selecting heroes in an orderly manner.
On the first floor, RNG decisively locked in the hero "Nami", and their intention to get Luna was very obvious.
"The opponent has Nami, should we grab Lucian?" Xiaotian asked the coach.
White Crescent was also in a dilemma at this time. "We have to destroy it. Luna is very powerful, especially after Lucian takes out Windrush. With the buff of Nami's E, a set of skills can easily kill the C position in one second at the same time. There is no reason not to destroy it."
"We're going to destroy you, you big-headed ghost. They are just waiting for us to destroy you. Besides, Luna's strongest node is when she has these two items: Hurricane + Cannon. Normally, Hurricane lasts for 13 minutes. Except for some specific lineups, who can you kill in one second?" Lu Yiming said disdainfully, "Just give it to the opponent. They don't have a hard support, which is advantageous for us!"
Bai Yueya was a little embarrassed to be rejected by Lu Yiming, but he didn't dare to make any rebuttal to the head coach, who was his most trusted father. Instead, he agreed and said, "Yiming is right. Let's listen to Yiming!"
TES locked down Monkey King and Syndra on the first and second floors respectively.
The offensive intent is very obvious.
RNG's choices on the 2nd and 3rd floors are awkward.
"Yiming is leading the BP on the opposite side. If it was White Crescent, he would definitely not be willing to let us get Luna like this." TaBe sighed and said it was a pity.
This is different from his prediction, because the purpose of picking Nami first is to force the opponent to pick a single Lucian in the middle or forcibly choose Lucian to go to the bottom lane. In this way, they will counterattack with the traditional strong bottom lane combination of Caitlyn + Nami, which will inevitably get 100% of the line rights and the early and mid-term advantages, but the situation is different now.
With Lucian here, there's no reason to force picking Caitlyn.
"Coach, I think we can use Miss Fortune. Luna is a little slow to exert her strength, and there is a high probability that the opponent will use a hard support in this game. It will be difficult for me to play well in the laning phase if I choose Luna." GALA gave his opinion.
He wants to shake up the jungle and hit something in lane.
Nami and the policewoman have linked skills. Once Nami's Q bubble hits, the policewoman's W is 100% guaranteed to make the opponent flash. If the damage is full, it can even kill the opponent easily. Especially after level 6, Nami's RQ is sure to hit, and when it hits the opposite ADC, he will follow up with a clamp, and it's a kill with full health!
"Forget it, let's go with Luna. Policewoman Nana's beauty is too low." TaBe felt that GALA was a bit too aggressive after losing the last game.
On the third floor, he helped Bin get Gwen, the girl he had always dreamed of.
When Gwen made this move, it caused quite a stir in the outside world.
【Brother Bin is about to take action. 】
[Gwen couldn't even defend against Zeus at MSI, how could he deal with him? 】
【Tzun has lived a rewarding life by making Bin take his MSI-winning hero seriously. Although this kid's Poppy was indeed a bit good today, that's all.】
[Gwen's three-piece set is complete. I don't know how TES will deal with a top laner who can only play tanks. 】
[I know that you, Tzun, can only play a mixed hero, so I specifically chose a late-game core player. I will develop normally with you in the early game, and I don’t care how many last hits I can get in the lane. Even if the data is 25 in 000 minutes, the role in team battles cannot be matched by mixed heroes. ]
[Bin's idea is right. If you play against a slacker, the moment you get the late-game core, he will be very anxious. After all, everyone knows that Gwen will become more powerful as time goes by. If he develops to 30 minutes later, he will be the only true god on the field! ]
[If the emperor jumps like this, someone who doesn't know would think that it's RNG that's leading 1:0. ]
[In the last game, I was killed twice by a single player, and I was killed by a tower dive. At the moment when the game ended, Fiora was so good at last-hitting, but Poppy still had 50 last-hit kills. Huang Za still had the nerve to say that he didn't care how many last-hit kills he had in the lane. Didn't he blush when he said this? ]
[What made Bin give up playing laning and focus on playing in the late game? High EQ: Because he thought Gwen could be a carry in the late game, so he bet on the late game. Low EQ: Fiora was defeated in the matchup, and he felt that he couldn't win in the early game, so he had to change his mindset.]
【Hahaha, the truth is out! 】
【…】
In the barrage, fans of both sides continued to quarrel with each other.
Huangza has great faith in Bin's Gwen. After all, during MSI, Zeus did not deal with Bin's Gwen, and he even got a lot of screen time from him in the later stages, just like TheShy's Aatrox during his peak period. With classic battles as a reference, it's hard not to believe it.
Top Esports fans also support their top laner because of Lu Yiming's outstanding performance in the last game.
Therefore, before the game even started, the tension between the fans of both sides had already thrown the entire barrage area into chaos.
On the TES side, Lu Yiming on the 3rd floor didn't even think twice and decisively locked on his signature skill, the Big Worm, which is one of his 'Top of the World' proficiency levels. Although he has better options against Gwen, it's only the regular season now. Even if he defeats RNG, it's just a reputation at best, and it can't cause any substantial blow to RNG's journey in this summer season.
His sights have long been on the BO5 playoffs, so he tries to hide as much as possible.
The first three moves of both sides have been determined.
The second round of BP is coming.
RNG: Magic Cat, Tranquility of the Waning Moon.
TES: Lee Sin, Taliyah.
"RNG obviously anticipated that there would be a Zeli + Cat combination out there. Although this combination is no match for Luna in the laning phase, it is also a combination with a higher growth curve than Luna in the current version."
"Similarly, Ah Shui is also good at playing Moon Man. In the last GALA game, Moon Man was very successful against Luna. If Ah Shui gets Moon Man, he will most likely be able to replicate the bottom lane matchup in the last game."
"TES continues to restrict Xiaohu's hero pool. It seems that after being banned four times, General Hu has no more options left, right?"
"This is going to be difficult. Let's see how Xiaohu decides."
When explaining and analyzing.
TES is on the fourth floor and has already locked down Xayah, the hero that made A Shui famous and the protagonist of the "Flash Forward" in S8. It is obvious that they want to use Xayah and Rakan to counter Luna.
RNG here.
Xiaohu looked very conflicted, but amid the expectant gazes of the audience outside, a strange noise suddenly came.
"Shurima, your emperor has returned—"
"tsar??"
"Forget it, you really can't play this, just choose something else."
"I really don't believe in his Tsar!"
"I didn't dare to choose Tsar in the spring season, how dare you choose him in the summer season?"
Even the RNG fans at the scene were excited when they saw this hero avatar. The best heroes Xiaohu played this season were "Ice Girl" and "Galio". In addition to these, he had two hidden talents, Corki and Poppy. Although he won the championship in the spring season, after going to MSI, he actually didn't dare to choose them in front of Faker.
After some hesitation, Xiaohu changed to a more reliable mid lane.
'Lady Luck is smiling! ! '
【Cards.】
[The card is locked. Although the female basketball player cannot get the line right, it is still no problem to maintain stable development. After reaching level 6, she can fly, which is also quite suitable for Tiger General. ]
[Just trust GALA, this time just focus on supporting the bottom lane, remember who led you to win the MSI championship. ]
[I believe that Brother Bin can do it, Gwen can provide a backup for the team, and the big worm has no displacement, and has a yellow card for stable control, so call the jungler to kill! ]
[Haha, the emperor is dreaming before the game. ]
[If you don’t know, you might think that the person who got two solo kills in the early stage of the last game was a stray dog on the roadside, not the champion Bin you hold so high.]
【…】
As for the jungler, WEI didn't have any strong heroes to choose from, so when there was a disagreement, he took out his tried and tested King of the Ruined King.
On the fifth floor of TES, as expected, they locked down Luo.
Finally, amidst the heated discussions from the outside world, the coaches of both teams walked to the center of the stage, shook hands and left the stage. Then, the screen jumped to the loading interface. [BO3]: 0:1
【RNG】vs【TES】
Top order: [Spiritual Doll] vs [Void Terror]
Jungle: [King of the Ruined King] vs [Monkey King]
Mid: [Twisted Fate] vs [Dark Sovereign]
ADC: [Holy Spear Ranger] vs [Reverse Feather]
Support: [Tidecaller] vs [Phantom Feather]
During this time, the system's pleasant prompt sound came as expected.
[Ding dong! ! 】
[Detected that the host has a [Gambling Monster], do you want to roll the points? ]
"Yes!" Lu Yiming said in his heart.
In fact, after obtaining three prismatic-level Hextech buffs in a row during the mid-game, he has been reborn. When facing the big worm and Gwen in the top lane, he didn't think that Bin could make any splash in the early and mid-game, so he was not so eager for the random buff of [Gambler].
But luck is unstoppable...
【Ding! 】
['Gambling Monster' trigger points are 6, laning ability +60%! ! ]
[The effect lasts until the end of this game.]
"Good guy, Bin, ah Bin, even God wants to ruin your reputation." Lu Yiming was very happy. When he felt that his understanding of the line was getting deeper and deeper, he had already sentenced Bin to death in his heart.
…………
There was not much design in the early stage of this game for both sides. After entering the canyon, they mainly took positions to prevent invasion.
The soldiers gathered in the top lane, and Lu Yiming was very active. He was even so arrogant that he controlled the big worm to walk to the enemy tower, attack the incoming soldiers, and forcibly separate the three front-row soldiers.
He already knew this skill, and with the [God of the Line of Soldiers] he gained during the halftime break, his understanding of it became even deeper.
From the beginning, the purpose was simply to pull the line in order to avoid being hit by the opponent's AOE skills and eat the three front-row soldiers, to how to make the most appropriate choices when dealing with different heroes, and how different heroes should operate the details of the soldier line after pulling the line to increase benefits, and so on, a series of operations related to managing the soldier line.
Whether explicit or potential, the understanding of all benefits is already familiar.
At this time, Lu Yiming's attainments in this area can be described as an omnipotent encyclopedia.
The three front-row soldiers of both sides gathered together and then dispersed to fight each other, but their positions were twisted and looked very messy.
Seeing this situation, Bin felt it was a difficult situation.
It’s not that there is a problem with pulling the line. This skill is no secret to most professional top laners. It has an impact, but not big. What really makes him feel difficult is Lu Yiming’s talent configuration.
The big bug did not choose the conventional 'Immortality', but instead configured 'Blades', 'Magic Boots' and 'Movement Speed', a set of things he had never dealt with before.
Looking at the entire Korean server's King Group, only Lu Yiming can play a hero like the Big Worm. He is almost extinct in high-quality games. As for the case of his selection in the league, it dates back to many years ago, and he has no reference.
But she also understood that the giant worm "Blades" used E at level 1, which was definitely not something that a small Gwen like her could afford to offend.
Helplessly, he could only wait for the opportunity when the front-row soldiers were low on health, and use Q to kill two as much as possible before pulling away. For this, he was ready to exchange his health for development.
But Lu Yiming didn't give him this opportunity at all. When the three front-line soldiers each had half of their health left, he had already controlled the big worm to push forward across the line of soldiers to block Gwen.
Helpless, Bin could only give in.
"You can act as pretentious as you want in CS. I'll let you be arrogant for a while. My Gwen's economic loss of a few minions in the early stage won't have much impact. My growth curve is much higher than yours. This is my trump card!" Bin knew that the economy of his three melee soldiers was hopeless, so he responded with a 'weak' expression.
The main goal is to lose the fight but not the battle.
Seeing this, Lu Yiming was happy.
The big worm was not weaker than Gwen in the laning phase, and he also brought "Blades" with him, with the purpose of taking advantage of the opponent's misfortune.
Also because the big worm's passive ability can restore both health and mana after killing a soldier, the strategic value of "Immortality" is not high. As for the two talents of "Demolition" and "Skeleton" that are essential for tanks, Lu Yiming replaced them with more profitable shoes and "Movement Speed".
The former is equivalent to a profit of 300, and can also increase the movement speed by 10 points.
The latter, whether it is the Q of the big worm or the slowdown caused by the E hitting, will significantly increase one's movement speed, which is simply a magical skill for a clumsy and unmobile hero like the big worm.
Gwen, who went out with Doran's Shield, sacrificed some of her health in exchange for the experience points of three melee soldiers.
In the top lane, he was basically one step behind, and then he fell behind step by step. In the first wave, he used his health to exchange for experience. After that, he had to do the same in every wave because Lu Yiming firmly occupied the line.
Not long after they met, the health potion in Bin's equipment bar had been used up.
The moment Lu Yiming grabbed the 2nd position, he stepped on Q. The opponent had clearly learned E, but facing his slightly predicted stomping, he immediately wanted to twist away by moving. Later, when he saw that he couldn't escape and was about to use E to pull away, it was too late. The ground spike of Q successfully hit Gwen, knocking him high into the sky.
Because Gwen was first knocked away and then slowed down, he triggered the talent effect of 'Movement Speed'.
When moving towards an enemy hero whose movement speed is damaged, you will gain a 7.5% movement speed increase. If this effect comes from yourself, you will get double the movement speed increase, which is 15%!
The base speed of the giant bug is 340, and the extra 15% is 391! !
Gwen learned E at level 1, and even if she moved back a distance, she couldn't escape. Lu Yiming, who was chasing her, activated the E skill, and under the effect of "Blades", he launched three normal attacks, continuously firing spikes to penetrate Gwen's small and exquisite body.
Because the talent 'Movement Speed' has no cooldown, it will continue to be triggered as long as the enemy hero is 'slowed down'. Therefore, Lu Yiming maintained a movement speed of 391 and chased Gwen to the edge of the defense tower's range before turning around and pulling away.
The opponent might have developed muscle memory of the pulling, and when he turned his head, he turned his head at the same time, extending his scissors to try to get a free normal attack.
But Lu Yiming had expected this. He pretended to turn around, then turned back again, and the two of them attacked each other.
"Play tug of war with me, I want to howl!" Lu Yiming said to himself with a faint smile.
After the two of them pulled apart, Gwen was at level 1, with only half of her health left, and she had no health potions on her. This scene caught Xiaotian's eyes, and he almost immediately pinged the signal to rush to the top lane.
"You don't have to say anything. I must help you train him this time!" Xiaotian said excitedly.
Our top laner, Chaos Blade, is so understanding!
Seeing that the big worm was already hoarding the line, Bin knew what was going to happen and quickly called the jungler, "Can you help me get a wave of soldiers under the tower? The enemy jungler is preparing to cross the tower."
"But I'm in the upper zone." Wei was already farming red. Hearing the call from the top lane, he felt a little annoyed. "If you really can't do it, just go to B. I can't come. I have to go help GALA!"
Gwen was chosen for the top lane this time. His control over the Card in the mid lane was so stable, and GALA in the bottom lane needed to be nurtured. Even if he wanted to radiate the top lane, he had to wait until 6 minutes to liberate the mid lane first and let the Card move.
Bin was already feeling conflicted after hearing this.
Let his Gwen give up two and a half waves of soldiers, go back to replenish blood and then T out?
Isn't that still level 1?
If the T comes out and is tower dived, it will definitely explode.
Helplessly, he could only grit his teeth and wait for the soldiers to enter the tower, hoping to see if he could use flash to operate. He felt that the Monkey King + Cho'Clan on the opposite side did not have a particularly stable control chain.
Game time 3:10.
"Is Gwen still not leaving?" Lv Yiming was a little surprised when he saw this. "He is in such a high strategic position now, and the Ruined King is working from the bottom up just to support a Scissor Girl?"
"No, no, the Ruined King is coming. I think I have to use my flash now!" Feedback came from A Shui in the bottom lane.
Lu Yiming smiled faintly: "That's fine, prepare to freeze your hands, prepare to freeze your hands!"
Xiaotian had already circled to the triangle grass, and his Monkey King walked out openly, but what no one expected was that the Card Master in the middle lane suddenly gave up TP and led the team to the previous tower.
"Let me protect you." Xiaohu was playing as a female basketball player and had no line rights, so he thought he might as well just sit there and do nothing.
Bin's eyes lit up and he felt that he should be safe.
"Still crossing?" Xiaotian paused. Forcing out the TP in the middle lane was actually a win.
But Lu Yiming wanted more than just that. He controlled the big bug to walk towards Gwen's face and answered with action: "You slow down first!"
Xiaotian knew what Lu Yiming was thinking. He took the initiative to walk to Gwen's face and started with AQ, but was pulled away by Gwen's E. However, Xiaotian, who had saved his E, decisively used E to hit Gwen's face and continued to follow up with output.
Because the normal attack started with the slowing effect of the 'red BUFF' for Gwen, the big worm triggered the 'movement speed'. Because the slowing came from teammates, the improvement was 7.5%.
But it's completely enough.
Lu Yiming had already walked to Gwen's face. He never used any skills, and the pressure he brought to Bin was too strong. Suddenly, the big bug used W to spray out sound waves forward.

Today is a special day, so I’ll post an update first.
The author will stay up late to watch the finals, and the second update will be at 6 pm tomorrow.
