Chapter 207: The final glimmer of light! The artillery positions the troops "Dragon Raising its Head"! Who is on the competition stage! [Seeking monthly votes]
"JDG seems to have made some moves since the start! The support is heading straight to the top lane!"
The JDG team is implementing the pre-match arrangements.
In the fourth game of the new season, although a new double C was replaced, JD’s most common tactics have not changed.
Hongmi has a lot of authority to coach the team, and the JDG he led last year was able to become one of the top three teams in LPL despite its not-so-luxurious lineup, thanks to the bond between the top and jungle players, the "Eternal Hunter Twins".
Given that the results were pretty good at the start of the spring season, there was really no reason to make a major change at the last minute.
So as soon as he went out, the support Missing went straight to the top lane and crouched in a patch of grass by the soldier line.
"This should be to help place wards in the top lane!"
The commentary desk quickly figured out the reason.
"Jayce vs. Sion in the top lane is a classic long-range vs. short-range strategy. The support should want to help place a lane ward, which can ensure that Jayce has 69% control of the lane in the early stage, and it is very considerate to !"
Zoom added a deeper point: "The main reason is that the bottom lane doesn't look like a combination that can compete for the lane rights. For the Ruined King, at least half of the zone must be in his hands!"
"Kanavi is a person who cannot accept losses in the jungle."
Kanavi's playing style has not changed.
Zoom has been partnered with Kanavi for more than three years since 19. He is Kanavi's first and longest-serving top lane teammate, so he naturally knows him very well.
Zoom also joked that the two most common phrases in the opponent's career are: "Can you come over for a moment?" and "Can you help me put a ward on the other side?"
However, in this game, the only thing the short-handed player in the top lane could rely on to resist the pressure from the long-handed player was to pull the grass on the line.
Therefore, this targeted method of sending the support to the top lane at level 1 to help place wards is actually not uncommon in the arena, and the effect is excellent.
"Be careful, the enemy is quite strong at level 1, just place a ward at the second grass." Kanavi was giving instructions and warnings: "If they come, give way."
"You guys have to be more cautious in the bottom lane in this game. Sylas is very harmful when he's jungle clearing. If I counter him twice, he'll be in trouble!"
"Yeah." Missing replied alone.
The ruler said nothing.
After coming to JDG, Chidi got along well with everyone else in the team—but he seemed the least familiar with his fellow countryman Kanavi.
The reason is that Emperor Chi feels that this kid doesn't "respect" him a bit!
In his subconscious, Kanavi is still a newcomer in Griffin who is eating Tarzan's leftovers. No matter in terms of qualifications or achievements. Shouldn't he at least show some courtesy when meeting him for the first time?
But when the two met for the first time in JDG, Kanavi seemed to "not take him seriously" at all.
He just greeted me normally and then went about his own business!
But after all, he was a newcomer, and Chi Di also knew that the other party was the core player of this team in the past few years. Although he was unhappy, he didn't say anything.
1 minutes 10 seconds.
Renata, who was hanging in the grass on the top lane, started pressing the recall button, and at the last second after the recall ended, she placed a ward in the second bush.
This ward position is enough to ensure that Sion has no grass available before he reaches level 3, so Jayce can suppress him at will!
The rest of the people performed their duties and stood at the intersection to defend.
But at this moment, the Ruined King who was guarding the wild area saw four people suddenly walk out of the river below!
"It seems that V5 has finally decided to invade!"
God's perspective has long noticed this.
After the V5 members went out, they first took standard positions. After confirming that the opponent had no abnormal movements at level one, they began to gather in the lower half.
The four of them had been hiding behind the wall of their own jungle area, as if waiting for some opportunity.
Since it is well known that exchanging jungle areas at level 1 will result in negative returns, the strong invasion style at level 1 has not appeared for a long time.
So JDG didn't make too many arrangements before the battle.
"They're coming," Kanavi yelled as he retreated.
"Don't fight, don't fight, Park Jae Hyuk, step back!"
Kanavi is well aware that the opponent is significantly stronger at level one.
Not to mention that Dragon King's first-level combat power is obviously stronger than Ryze's. Just the two shooter heroes in the bottom lane carrying double blades make fighting a brainless thing!
Of course, the problem with V5's lineup is that it lacks control in the first level group, making it difficult to retain people.
The only control is Sion's Q, which is difficult to hit when cast head-on, which is why JDG didn't think the opponent would try to attack level 1.
The Ruined King was driven away by four people, and the four V5 members continued to invade the blue zone.
Beryl did not start the scan in advance, but walked into the lower half of the blue BUFF pit to start it - this is because only the eyes at this position can detect the subsequent movements of the invader.
Unless JDG came for a 4v4 with the intention of fighting, there was no way they would be able to sneak in and replenish wards later.
As long as the vision of the lower half is cleared, JDG will have difficulty judging whether the opponent is preparing to start a jungle in their blue zone or is squatting to ambush them.
Kanavi quickly sorted out his thoughts: "It's okay, you guys go online, don't go into the jungle, I'll go to the red start."
He understands the shortcomings of Sylas as a jungler.
This hero can hardly farm alone even in his own jungle, let alone in the enemy jungle without any buffs.
Therefore, there is no need to place wards at all. Just by looking at the opponent's bottom lane's path and status, it is enough to determine whether Sylas is in his jungle.
The result of changing the jungle area at the beginning of the game was shown as early as the first opening game of the spring season, LGD vs UP. Ning was inexplicably able to lead the opponent by nearly one and a half sets of jungle advantage!
Kanavi actually thought that the opponent just came in to try to steal the chicken, and if it didn't work, they would probably retreat back to their own jungle area.
In 1 minute and 30 seconds, wild monsters are refreshed.
Since the Ruined King started with a red buff in the top lane, Jayce came over to help out and hit a few times without any hesitation, and then went online slowly.
Seeing that there was no sign of Sion in the second bush in the top lane, 369 realized that Holy Spear must have guessed that their support would come up to help keep watch, so he didn't come over to give him a chance.
1 minutes 45 seconds.
When the Ruined King had just killed the first wild monster, he saw the V5 bottom lane duo coming up from the river.
This was actually opened in the wild area?
"What the hell. Are they trying to force a gank on the bottom lane?"
"Don't give him any chances in the early stages of the bot lane. If he dares to farm like this, I can destroy him!"
In Kanavi's opinion, by exchanging the jungle areas in this way, he can gain a huge advantage in the jungle.
As long as Sylas can't find a result in the bottom lane, he will definitely be destroyed by nature!
But his wolf spirit 369 noticed something unusual.
"No! Sean doesn't seem to be here!"
369 originally thought that Saint Spear was hiding in the grass, but because he was worried that Sion would use his classic level charging Q to hit him from a distance, he did not take the initiative to go forward and test him.
Anyway, Jayce only needs to control the minion line, and Sion cannot avoid showing up.
But it was not until all three melee soldiers were killed that the ranged soldiers began to fight.
Sean still didn't show up.
After 369 pressed the TAB scoreboard, his eyes suddenly widened.
他发现塞恩的战绩从0/0/0变成了0/1/0。
{There is no system notification sound or banner when being killed by wild monsters, but you can see the changes in the battle record and hero portrait}
As an expert Sion player, 369 certainly understands what this means!
But the problem is
Sion, what wild creature can you steal?
It is known that Sylas is opened in the lower half.
No matter whose bottom half Sion is in, it will only result in their own jungler having no jungle to farm later.
The upper half of the red zone has always had the mid and top players guarding the entrance. Unless Sion flashes over the wall, he has no room to sneak in without any movement.
The Ruined King has already finished beating his own red!
When all possibilities are eliminated, the only answer left can only be the one.
"He's stealing the field!?"
"Fuck, this Sion seems to be stealing their own blue zone!"
V5's intentions were exposed at this time.
Invade the jungle area at the right time at level 1 to clear your vision and make you unpredictable.
It is to force the Ruined King to the upper half.
Since the Ruined King cannot confirm whether the opponent is actually in his own jungle, and there is a common problem with changing jungles, there is no reason for him to go to the opponent's jungle at level 1 to change jungles.
After being killed by wild monsters, Sion uses the super high additional output ability granted by his passive Return of Time. Each basic attack will come with 10% of his maximum health, and he uses zombies to steal wild monsters!
And since Sion's death is considered death, the death of the zombie is not considered death - so the blue BUFF killed by the zombie will be inherited and retained after resurrection!
This is a routine from ancient times and is not new at all.
The question is, who would have thought that he was stealing his own wild animal! ?
of course.
In the current situation, what he stole was the wildness of the Ruined King.
Kanavi's heart sank.
Finally I realized that the other party was coming for me!
The Ruined King was countered in the lower blue zone, and V5's lower lane relied on the two shooters to have line control in the early stage, plus the support of the Dragon King in the middle lane - at this time, it was impossible for the Ruined King to force his way to the opponent's extremely strong lower zone for a hard exchange!
This means that Sion must bear the loss in the jungle that he has taken back, and it is a loss that he cannot avoid.
"At the beginning of the game, the Ruined King lost nearly a large area of jungle. Sion still had the blue buff and 200 gold to TP to the line. There was no loss of experience at all, and it was more comfortable to withstand the pressure!"
“What a great design!”
"Kanavi had no choice but to swallow his loss and turn around to attack his own red zone to level up."
After V5 selected Caitlyn as the support, JDG's BP strategy for this remedial game was to focus on the upper half, preparing to use the strength of the upper half to make up for the disadvantage of the lower half and give the jungler a stage.
But V5 started by directly destroying the resources in the upper half! They demolished the stage!
No matter how strong you are in the upper half, you have nowhere to go.
Kanavi took a deep breath and clenched his teeth: "Fight for the line in the top and middle. I still have to go to their jungle later."
"Don't give the bottom lane any chance!"
The only thing to be thankful for is that Sion only costs 8 knives when he TPs online.
The gain in jungle clearing efficiency only applies to jungle eggs. Sion does not enjoy the BUFF bonus when stealing his own jungle area, and can only steal two groups of jungles.
This means that there is still a group of three wolves in the upper blue zone, and as long as the Ruined King goes to take them, he will only be suppressed by two groups of wild monsters.
Moreover, as long as other lanes do not provide gank opportunities, Sylas's heroic flaws will be magnified - although there are two more groups of wild monsters that can be "cleared", because the clearing efficiency is not good, the gap can be narrowed down to one group of wild monsters in a back and forth.
This is the minimum that Kanavi can accept.
The director's perspective returns to the laning phase.
Sion didn't buy any medicine when he went out. He used the 50 gold he saved and when he came online again, he was wearing Doran's Shield + Cloth Armor, and had an extra blue buff. He was able to handle Jayce's consumption with ease.
Ryze in the middle lane received the message and started to move forward to attack the soldier and grab the line.
"The matchup between Dragon King and Ryze." Miller recalled in a long voice.
"In the previous few Dragon King matches, I was basically beaten in the laning phase. At most, I transformed into Dragon Form Zeli and used Q to hit a few comets or something like that."
On the night when Dragon King just landed on the test server, Ye Bo, who was invited to participate in the global trial, discovered many little tricks of this hero, and they were quickly popularized through live broadcasts.
The most famous one is naturally the "second Q" mechanism.
Dragon King Q's breath has two casting mechanisms.
In the current version, Dragon King's Q is immediately turned off and will not enter CD. Although the damage of Q is not high, it can trigger skill effects such as {Comet}, {Scorch} and {Mask}, and it is also a small AOE, which is very useful for consumption.
The way to deal with it is actually very simple.
Just stand behind the soldier.
But this time, Left Hand was clearly out of character. Not only did he not retreat to keep pace with the soldiers, but he also deliberately took an extremely forward-pressing stance.
Outsiders cannot see the deeper meaning.
But Ye Bo quickly guessed the other party's intention through his small position.
All of Ryze's skills have a range of no more than 615 yards, and Dragon King's level 800 Q has a range of nearly yards. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for the opponent to touch you.
Ryze deliberately put himself in a dangerous position to let Dragon King use his Q, clearly wanting to trick Dragon King into using his long Q, and then use the gap between casts to move forward and forcibly switch to AE, and then use the mechanism of Ryze's E to attract the hatred of minions to control the minion line.
Zuo Shou also studied the Dragon King.
He knew that this hero's so-called instant Q was actually only meaningful when it triggered additional effects such as comet or mask.
If there is no additional effect, a single Q will only deal 6 points of damage.
but.
The left hand's understanding is only at the second level.
Previously, Ye Bo had taken advantage of the Dragon King’s rework in [Echoes of Glory], but the Dragon King’s understanding of him had not yet reached perfection.
But at least at this moment, it is no exaggeration to say that it is the "world's number one"!
In the current version of Dragon King, the Q skill consumes 0.25 mana points every 10 seconds.
The Q skill will consume the normal 1 mana points only after casting for a full second.
Ye Bo ordered the Dragon King to spit out star flames, but did not end it immediately. Instead, he stared closely at the distance between the two sides.
Just when the spit reached 0.7 seconds and Ryze was about to walk into the 600-yard area, the Dragon King immediately stopped the spit and retreated.
Master the art of "Inch Stop"!
The mana consumption was also utilized to the extreme without any waste, 2/3 of the damage was dealt, and Ryze was unable to fight back because of the insufficient distance!
And the spitting did not last for a full second, and the Q skill did not enter CD.
In other words, Ryze has no way to reach CD time, and Dragon King can use the same trick again, which means the attack is in vain!
"What an extreme control of distance!" Wawa couldn't help but praise.
"But it seems that Zuoshou still wants to push forward, as if he really wants to trade blood with the Dragon King. If he can't find the enemy with E, he will use E to kill the soldiers."
Zoom corrected: "It's not because he's not convinced, it's because the jungler has to go into the jungle, and Ryze has to go offline."
Miller suddenly interrupted by shouting, "Hey, but Master Ye won't pamper you! The Dragon King will also push forward directly!"
The left hand, which had been pulled and had high blood pressure, was immediately delighted when it saw the Dragon King actually press down on its face from the side.
Ryze just suffers from short arms.
But once the opponent takes the initiative to give distance, Ryze only needs to use the soldiers as "meat shields" to block the dragon's breath, and most of the damage of the Dragon King can be offset!
The left hand did not retreat but moved forward, standing close to the line of soldiers, and started with a basic attack close to the Dragon King.
And the Dragon King seemed to just trade A with Ryze.
"What is this for!?"
"If the Dragon King uses A like this, he will be able to resist the minions! He can't exchange blood without Q!"
Because Q Dragon's Breath will be blocked by minions, the Dragon King obviously has no chance to use his skills.
On the contrary, Ryze can freely use AEA, and after performing Phase Dash, he can continue to adjust his position to attract aggro and exchange blood smoothly.
The advantage that the Dragon King had gained in the previous blood transfusion was being rapidly wiped out.
Ryze had no reason to back down. After all, the Dragon King was just playing like an ADC. He just stood in the lane and attacked him. Zuo Shou had no idea what the opponent was doing!
Both sides' health is close to half.
It's Ryze's turn to show his displeasure.
While preparing to grab 2, Zuo Shou pressed forward and got close to the Dragon King.
As long as there are soldiers as shields, the Dragon King cannot fight back and has no way to use any output methods!
This is why the new version of Dragon King currently has an extremely low win rate and the major competition areas do not favor him very much.
Of course everyone knows that this hero is very powerful when he develops well - the problem is that it now seems that this thing is even weaker than Kassadin in the early laning phase!
At least Kassadin's QWE can forcibly target output heroes. As long as he doesn't completely give up on exchanging blood like Xiaohu, he can still create some threat.
But Dragon King?
As long as the opponent keeps hiding behind the minions and doesn't give you space to spray Q.
If the Dragon King wants to consume his opponent, he can only rely on his instant Q "Comet Collapse" to transform into "Hydralisk"!
Compared to the old version of Dragon King, he can rely on the planetary orbit of W to forcibly cross the line of troops and suppress at the first level. The laning ability is simply a world of difference!
"Both mid laners reached level 2 at the same time!"
"Ryze used EW to freeze him, and Dragon King also started to attack him, but he couldn't get any more blood because of the minions blocking him."
The Dragon King seemed helpless and fought back on the spot.
The blue dragon that was running parallel to the front row of soldiers, with its head slightly passing over the first soldier, breathed dragon breath at Ryze.
But Ryze was not afraid at all. He immediately took a step forward and got closer to the melee soldier to avoid the dragon's breath.
But, soon.
The left hand showed an expression of disbelief.
"What the #@#! For gods and demons!?"
The commentator was stunned by the scene before them.
"How is this going!!"
"How did the Dragon King's Q go through the minions!"
Ryze walked into the melee group of soldiers, but he couldn't escape from the coverage of dragon's breath.
Zuo Shou thought it was a problem with his position and direction, so he continued to jump left and right in the pile of soldiers, squirming to adjust his body shape.
But the left hand soon discovered it.
No matter how he adjusted himself, he couldn't seem to escape the "lock" of the dragon's breath!
The dragon's breath looked like it was shooting directly over the soldier's head, ignoring all targets in its path and locking onto Ryze.
This completely overturned everyone's cognition!
Anyone who has played a game of Dragon King knows that the Q skill should not be able to penetrate soldiers, otherwise this hero would not be so weak in laning phase!
But, I wore it.
The new version of Dragon King is weak in laning phase, the only reason is that the Q skill is the only output skill of Dragon King in the early stage. However, it will be blocked by minions and cannot output continuously, and he will even be beaten on the spot.
However, if the Q skill can spray for a full second.
In addition to the continuous output that ticks every second, each full circle will cause an additional noble {maximum percentage} damage!
The 3.25-second Q skill can be triggered 3 times.
The output at full capacity is much higher than that of the old version of "Gua Sha Dragon"!
Because Ryze thought it was his own problem at first, and he wasted a lot of time moving among the soldiers.
When he became aware of this, he was almost covered in a full set of dragon breath.
Ryze's health instantly reached the danger line!
When his left hand found himself being tampered with, he instinctively retreated in panic, trying to evade responsibility. Without hesitation, he pulled up his pants and ran away!
But Ye Bo's deliberate advance was to bring the two sides closer together and let Ryze step into the trap on his own initiative.
It’s too late to run now!
The Dragon King's level 2 W swings out [Flowing Starry Sky] to gain a movement speed bonus and fly in pursuit, and when he gets close, he starts to spit dragon breath.
When W is in flying state, it will increase the damage of Q skill by a percentage, and the damage of dragon breath is even more amazing!
A circle of star flames filled up and burned Ryze to ashes!
【First blood! 】
“Wow! Left Hand got killed by Level 2!” Wawa held his head and shouted, “After a season, Left Hand broke the record!!”
"But this time." Miller's voice was a little hesitant: "Why this time? I don't quite understand this Q. Why can it penetrate soldiers like this?"
"To be honest, the main reason for this wave was that no one knew that Dragon King's Q could be placed like this, otherwise Left Hand would definitely not have given it this position, and there was no way he would have died."
The Duke next to him was also shaking his head in confusion: "The left hand didn't call for a timeout. Maybe it's some kind of mechanism or technique?"
This hero has only been online for less than half a month, so it is understandable that there are things that have not yet been discovered and developed.
of course.
The most important thing is people.
If other players used this kind of understanding that was completely beyond the public's cognition, they might directly call for a timeout, and the commentary desk might also question whether it was a BUG.
But, the id used is YE!
Faced with this ID, almost no one would question it, and everyone would instinctively think that it was some kind of mechanism, and Zuo Shou thought so too.
The director plays back the video.
But even in the replay, no one could see any clues.
Only the Duke, the egg tart chef with outstanding observation ability, could barely notice something: "It seems that the Dragon King is deliberately adjusting his position, not just simply consuming his opponent's attacks."
"His head?"
The only anomaly seemed to be that when the Dragon King was casting a spell, his dragon head deliberately brushed past a small soldier.
It looks like the dragon head is "placed" on the soldier.
In fact, this is a special mechanism of the Dragon King.
This is also what Ye Bo discovered through his exploration with the help of his leapfrog understanding.
The principle is probably due to the special model of the Dragon King. The head and tail do not match the actual model of the naked eye - just like the mechanism of the old version of the Dragon King's tail that can dodge skills.
So when the Dragon King's head slightly passed over a soldier, it seemed to fit in with it.
In fact, the Z axis has already deviated far from the target.
Then, as long as the Q skill searches for a target at the moment of casting, it will subsequently trigger a somewhat inexplicable "locking" mechanism that can penetrate and ignore any blocking objects in the middle.
After all, it's a brand new hero.
Ye Bo didn’t know what this was. Was it a mechanism, a bug, or an “easter egg” buried by the designer?
But obviously.
Everyone witnessed the power of this technique in this wave of solo kills.
"Turtle, I can only say that if this is a skill, then the Dragon King's ability in laning seems to be not weak at all!"
Even the doll with the worst understanding of the game had an expression of surprise and enlightenment.
"Not only is this not weak, it's almost like a line bully!" The Duke nodded in agreement.
Miller no longer hesitated and praised loudly: "I can only say that this is YE. He always makes us recognize a hero in a new way!"
[The governor is laughing. Is this the legendary former junior high school? How come he can't even survive level 2?]
[My evaluation is that it is not even as good as the Thief Saint!! ]
[As we all know, the Dragon King flies in the sky, and the soldiers are so short that they can't stop him on the ground. This is the Ganges River.]
[Is it possible that the designer of Dragon King actually copied the code of Chinese chess? This is also in line with the positioning of Dragon King's magic turret. The turret is separated from the soldiers, so it can hit it from a distance! ]
[WTF! The dragon is raising its head!? Who is on the competition stage?!]
[It is said that Master Yiye has a very deep hero pool now. Think about how he has grown from the original master to now. There is nothing he cannot do. He can even develop new heroes with this kind of research and development! ]
However, this wave of solo kills in the middle lane did not end there.
This is just the beginning of the early melee!
