Chapter 199: Feint to the east and attack in the west! The middle road collapses!
The coaches from both sides have come to the center of the stage to shake hands.

The first game of the global finals officially begins!
The director also knew what everyone wanted to see, so he focused the attention on Vayne.

The first thing PDD looked at was Li Yi's talents.

Generally speaking, Vayne chooses Bloodlust, so that she can withstand pressure online and with the help of auxiliary shields or blood recovery, there is not much pressure overall.

Of course, this generally refers to the bottom lane.

Hit Galio in the middle...

It seems that Galio's arms are shorter and he is easy to bully.

But in fact, the q skill has a range of 850 yards and the e skill has a range of 650 yards. For Vayne, whose range is only 550 yards, there is still a chance to consume the enemy, so she is not completely helpless.

Combined with the jungle Gragas, if Vayne pushes too hard... it's still pretty dangerous.

PDD thought about it carefully, and the excitement of seeing GT pick Vayne as mid laner disappeared instantly, as if it was not as good as he had imagined.

"sease chose to bring War Fervor here. His ability to stay in the laning phase will be much worse, but he can be very suppressive in the laning phase. The summoner skill he brought is also purification. Galio's W flash is really abnormal. If he doesn't bring purification, he will die if Gragas comes to catch him." During the time when PDD was thinking, Shenchao expressed his opinion.

"GT's selection of Vayne as the mid laner must have been designed. I believe it is used to counter Galio."

But Vayne has one problem whether she is in the top lane, bottom lane or mid lane, that is, she has no ability to clear the lane!

Like other ADCs, he has more or less a range of AOE damage, which gives him good minions clearing ability.

But Vayne doesn't have it, which means she needs to clear the minion line one by one, or buy Hurricane Electric Knife later, but to be honest, this equipment does not enhance Vayne as much as Sheep Knife and Ruined King.

After all, Hurricane does not trigger the passive of the W skill, and the critical strike effect of the electric knife is a bit too useless for Vayne. In later versions, the Q skill will have critical strike damage, which is the critical strike Vayne. Now, the special effect version still dominates.

So... Li Yi's idea is very simple.

Since you don't have the ability to push the line, then don't push it, just suppress the enemy! Extremely suppress the enemy.

If the top lane is too long, it will be difficult to bully short-handed players. If the middle lane is short, the risk of bullying will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, the two sides did not choose to fight at level one. After returning to normal laning, Li Yi directly pressed forward! The fight was very fierce!
Level 1 is also when Galio is at his weakest.

When you reach level 2 or 3, you must concentrate, otherwise you will easily be consumed by a combination of skills E and W and beaten unconscious.

However, Vayne still has a certain ability to protect herself. That is, Galio can push her away by using the e skill before or after releasing the e skill. Simply put, it is the action after the backward action ends and moves forward.

Before releasing it, I predicted that the opponent was going to attack, and as for the follow-up, it was purely a reaction.

You can simply think of it as Minotaur's W skill.

Just like Tristana, the W skill will make you invincible if released before the bar is loaded, and you can jump away, but it will be interrupted by control skills when taking off.

The logic codes of League of Legends are the same, and all operations have theoretical basis.

Of course, like when Sion turns around with his ultimate... he's just cheating.

Faker looked at Vayne who crossed the line and attacked him, but he didn't have any good solution.

His initial thought was to draw aggro so that he could use his Q skill to finish off the enemy, but the opponent didn't give him this opportunity at all and just forced his way forward.

There is no choice but to keep retreating.

The backhand also came with a wing.

As a result, Wayne dodged the attack and went close to his face, hitting him three times in a row.

The damage is not high, only 42 points.

After all, Faker went out with the Doran's Shield and had already expected that the pressure on the laning side would be very great.

He can't afford to be careless in the global finals, and he is also very clear about the strength of his opponent.

Even so, with four normal attacks plus the damage added by the Q skill, Galio's health was reduced to 189 points as soon as they met at level 1.

Vayne was only hit by the minions for one round of damage.

After you get past it, you will no longer be attacked by the soldiers.

Faker stared at Vayne who had completely passed the back row soldiers. His heart sank and he realized instantly that he had been fooled!

Before the game, his plan was to maintain as much health as possible in the early stage and avoid consumption. When he reached level 2 or 3, he would team up with the jungler to aggressively catch people and kill Vayne in one fell swoop.

It turned out that his opponent had figured out his thoughts thoroughly, and a more sophisticated scam made his plans fall through.

It was no longer realistic to go back to the line, and he regretted it endlessly, thinking that if he had been tougher from the beginning and endured the damage from the minions to fight for his position, Vayne would never have been able to suppress him so wantonly. But it was too late to say anything now, and a thorny problem lay before him: how to transition to level three.

On the other side of the field, Li Yi in the GT player seat raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

In his opinion, a good start is half the success. In the first wave of confrontation, he was able to firmly suppress Faker. Galio would be imprisoned under his suppression in the next few minutes!

One wrong step will lead to another. If you try to force your way up now, you will be suppressed to less than half your health.

By level 2, the right to laning is completely lost.

Since you have the second level of purification, you don't need to learn e. You can learn w to deal three rings of true damage... and even have a chance to kill alone.

The God's perspective showed the whole mid-lane game, and for a moment, everyone gasped in shock. Wawa even shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiu Shen's operation is too fierce! He didn't play by the rules at all, and directly pushed forward across the line of soldiers. He didn't give us any chance to survive!"

PDD smiled and shook his head. "Galio was weak against Vayne at level 1 and was doomed to be beaten. But he was hit four times in a row and then forced out of the experience zone. This was beyond my expectation. It seems that Faker is under a lot of pressure this time."

This look does seem a bit like gloating.

But he is now a guest commentator of LPL, so naturally he hopes to see GT beating SKT. Now that they are so swollen at level 1, the advantage in the middle lane is huge.

Shen Chao followed up: "Yeah, the key is that they forced the opponent out of the experience zone, which is too fatal for Galio. Now it is almost impossible to get back to the line, unless Gragas comes to the mid lane to solve the problem at this time."

But at such a critical moment in the early game when the jungler's rhythm is at a critical juncture, the jungler coming to the middle lane to help clear the minion line is at a huge disadvantage.

In this case, it is easy for GT to grasp the rhythm first.

The reason is simple. Galio's effect cannot be brought into play and it becomes a side effect, while Zac can take advantage of this time point to catch people.

First was the Shen in the top lane. Huni played with great confidence and kept exchanging blood with Shen.

In fact, there is not much advantage. In the current version, Shen is a t1 top laner. In addition to having extremely strong support capabilities, his laning ability is also not bad.

The situation on the field became increasingly serious, and the foreshadowing of the confrontation in the middle began to ferment wildly at this moment.

When the second wave of soldiers came online, Galio's situation became increasingly difficult, because he was forced out of the experience zone before and missed the experience of three soldiers. The key node for leveling up was missed, and he had no means of counterattack before reaching level two.

Li Yi was not afraid of Gragas coming to catch him, and he controlled Vayne, not giving Faker any chance to breathe. He took advantage of the handover of the military line to attack again, consuming Faker with full firepower.

Faker could only deal with it in a panic, his skill releases were not as good as before, and he could only rely on drugs to barely maintain his condition.

After a struggle, Galio's health was reduced to only half even with the help of Doran's Shield, and he was in danger.

The Korean audience was shocked to see this scene. In the past international competitions, Faker was the one who controlled lightning and pressed his opponents under the tower. Now he has become the one who is suppressed, stuck in the quagmire of the line, unable to escape, and has no way to break the deadlock.

After two waves of soldiers, Vayne missed a hit because of the suppression in front, but Galio only had four hits.

The battle situation in the middle lane changed in an instant. The third wave of soldiers, carrying powerful artillery carts, rushed towards the middle lane defense tower like a surging tide, and the situation suddenly became tense to the extreme.

Everyone knows that this wave of soldiers is very important for SKT to stabilize the early situation.

Xiao Huasheng no longer hid his whereabouts and decisively appeared in the middle lane. He had no choice, the situation was pressing and there was no room for hesitation.

Looking at the approaching cannon line, he knew very well that if he failed to handle it properly, Vayne would most likely take advantage of the soldiers entering the tower and join forces with Zac to stage a tower-crossing and killing move.

"The Gragas is on the opposite side." Wushuang had actually already taken position, squatting on the side ready to do so at any time.

"That's normal. He will definitely be there this time." Li Yi was not surprised by this.

If Peanut wasn't there, their mid lane would have exploded.

"But our target this time is not him at all." Li Yi said while signaling on the small map.

"Hahaha, I haven't played like this in a while. It's time to mess with the opponent's jungler."

That’s right, this wave is aimed at the barrel!

If Gragas appears in the middle lane, he won't be able to clear the jungle in the upper lane. This is just the right time to ambush Gragas in the jungle.

Peanut was guarding the middle lane, his heart as taut as a fully drawn bow, his eyes fixed on Vayne as she pushed the troops step by step under the defensive tower.

Finally, he was seen in the defensive tower. After wandering for a while, Vayne disappeared in the middle lane.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief, now the opponent won't kill me by jumping over the tower.

Of course, he didn't rush to leave at the first moment, as it would be troublesome if the opponent made a surprise attack.

I waited a little longer in the middle lane, making sure the opponent would not kill me by jumping over the tower.

"Be careful, they might ambush you in the jungle, or they might go back to update their equipment." Faker got the sweet sports car and did not forget to remind Peanut, because this possibility is indeed very high.

"I know." Peanut replied, but he felt that since he was a barrel, it was unlikely that he would be caught.

The opponent is more likely to invade the jungle area. If you see them, just leave. So I controlled the Barrel and went back to the upper area to kill the remaining monsters.

However, the God's perspective reveals another thrilling scene.

Zac and Vayne sneaked into SKT's jungle quietly. They hid in the dark bushes, like experienced hunters, quietly waiting for their prey to step into the trap.

Kkoma in the SKT backstage lounge was originally staring at the screen, and nodded. Xiaohuasheng's counter-camping was crucial and successfully protected Faker's development. His face changed suddenly the next second.

He stood up from his seat with a jerk, veins on his forehead bulged slightly, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

Peanut...you have to realize that the other side is looking for you.

After all, the hero Vayne is no longer in the middle lane, and his health is very healthy. In this case, the possibility of him going home to update his equipment is not high.

So where is Vayne? She must be looking for you in the jungle!
Peanut was completely unaware of the impending danger. He was only thinking about clearing the wild monsters, quickly getting resources, and then catching Vayne to reverse the disadvantage in the middle lane.

He controlled the barrel and skillfully cleared the three wolves, then moved towards the blue buff without stopping.

The atmosphere at the scene was weird and tense. The domestic audience understood what was going on and held their breath tacitly, not daring to make a sound for fear of disturbing GT's counter-camping layout.

The Korean audience was extremely anxious and shouted at the top of their lungs, trying to remind their own players with all their might.

But the venue is too big...even if you shout at the top of your lungs, it won't make any difference.

And there was a delay. At this time, Peanut was already slumped in his seat, looking at his black and white screen.

On the big screen, the picture clearly showed why Peanut slumped in his seat.

Zac seized the opportunity and used his E skill to swoop towards the unsuspecting Gragas like an eagle swooping down on a rabbit, instantly smashing him up hard. Gragas briefly lost the ability to resist in the air.

In the blink of an eye, Vayne reacted extremely quickly and quickly caught up with the output. Crossbow arrows flew everywhere, and the damage landed accurately on the Barrel.

When the barrel was about to fall to the ground after being knocked away, Li Yi was quick-witted and used the E skill to control the barrel again. After a series of smooth combos, the bonus damage of War Fervor became more and more painful. The barrel's health plummeted instantly and he was left with little health in the blink of an eye.

Peanut knew that if he just sat there and waited for death, he would suffer a great loss, so he gritted his teeth and thought that even if he could exchange for Vayne's flash, it would not be too much of a loss.

So he decisively gave up his flash, trying to fight for a chance of survival.

However, Wushuang, who had been sticking close to him to guard against Gragas' E skill, reacted quickly and flashed to catch up.

It shattered Peanut’s dream of using flash and e skill to run away.

Li Yi looked at the barrel through the wall, followed up with a Q skill, and shot a light crossbow arrow towards the barrel.

Just the right amount of time, with the help of Zac who flashed over, he cleared the health of the Barrel.

First blood!

The first drop of blood breaks out!

When the big screen clearly showed Peanut being killed.

When the words "First blood" flashed across the screen.

The audience could no longer contain their excitement.

Before this, everyone had been holding back in order not to disrupt the game situation, but now they were completely letting it out.

At this moment, just like a dam bursting, warm cheers resounded throughout the venue, mixed with excited shouts and screams of excitement, all kinds of sounds intertwined together to form an extremely impactful sound wave.

At the same time, thunderous applause broke out. The applause was as dense and powerful as drumbeats, one wave after another, as if to overturn the roof of the venue.

Shen Chao could no longer conceal his excitement, his voice even rose a few notches as he excitedly explained, "Beautiful! The cooperation between GT's mid and jungle was so exquisite!

Relying on the advantage gained from the previous laning battle in the middle lane, he cleverly used the time difference and made a beautiful counter-camping move, directly catching Xiaohuasheng's Gragas.

This blood was so crucial that it instantly established a huge advantage for the middle lane. This tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west was really a great trick!"

PDD also nodded and agreed, "That's right, the most important thing is that Gragas used up his flash and gave away the first blood.

The situation will be very different. If SKT's mid and jungle still want to attack Vayne in the next wave, the chances of success will be very low."

Although Vayne has purification, the possibility of her running away after receiving double control is still relatively low. However, since Gragas does not have flash, it is difficult for him to keep up with the second control.

The most important thing is...the red buff that Gragas hit earlier was successfully transferred to Vayne.

Faker stared at the red halo under Vayne's feet and took deep breaths.

He should be the one with the most pressure on the field right now... because he is almost collapsing!
