Chapter 254-Yuan Shen's significance to IG

Xiye's guess was correct in a sense.

To be more precise, what IG accumulated in the regular season was not the experience of tower diving, but the experience of judging whether this wave can be won.

Extremely aggressive and advocating attack. Being reckless does not mean fighting without thinking. The most terrifying one is the one with brains.

"They're going to get me!" said the brother-in-law in a strange Chinese accent. "At level 6, Pantheon and Taliyah's ultimates will catch me."

The rock climbing duo's first appearance on the professional arena was like being stabbed in the back of a cold knife. It was understandable that they couldn't react to the first and second blows.

But the third time, the Rock Climbing Combination led the team to several waves of rhythm in a row. If they hadn't reacted yet, the WE players could have retired.

Not only my brother-in-law, they all immediately realized the possibility of a rock climbing combination.

In the early stage, the mainstream of the current version is to focus on the bottom lane and the first blood tower.

The strength of the rock climbing combination lies in the fact that the double flash in the first wave of catching people in the early stage is hard to defend, and there is a high probability that they can tear a breakthrough in the middle lane. After reaching level 6, the super long-range support skills of the two will increase the strength of the four-on-two combination by at least two levels.

"It's amazing that they could think of this combination," said Mr. Kang.

"Ah."

Xiye nodded and changed the subject, "But, after understanding the idea, it's no big deal."

WE responded immediately.

When Pantheon disappeared in the middle lane before, the reason why Xiye didn't report the Miss immediately was the same as the principle of the story of the boy who cried wolf. He couldn't even report the opponent's placement of a ward, as that would bring great pressure on his teammates in the laning phase, and they wouldn't even be able to get the last hit in peace.

But now it's different.

As soon as Pantheon disappeared from the line, Xiye immediately gave up the line of troops and moved closer to the bottom.

Kangdi frequently appeared in the lower zone, with his vision reaching deep into the lower jungle of the opposite side, trying his best to ensure the development of his brother-in-law. As long as the opposite side dared to four-on-two and cross the bottom lane tower, their mid and jungle would dare to give the opposite side a big attack!
This style of play undoubtedly sacrificed the development of some WE mid and jungle players. Xiye was fine, he lost soldiers, and Pantheon also lost soldiers.

According to the theory of "The enemy's slowdown is equal to our acceleration" proposed by a certain commentator in the "League of Legends Theory of Relativity", Xiye did not lose in this wave.

But Mr. Kang is different, he has to give up some of the jungle resources.

There is no way. The core output point of WE lineup lies in Ashe. Anyone’s development can collapse except Ashe.

Under WE's operation, IG's fierce offensive like a wave has been temporarily eased. For the WE team, it is worthwhile to exchange the development of the jungler for the development of the ADC.

"Is it really not a loss?"

Yuan Shen looked at Nar, who was even more timid than before, and gradually felt a surge of murderous intent.

The presence of the jungler is an invisible protection for every lane.

Sometimes, when the jungler shows up, he loses his deterrent effect.

Lee Sin tried his best to ensure the development of Ashe, but it not only resulted in a loss of resources in the upper jungle area, but also meant that there was no one behind Gary.

After confirming that the jungler would most likely not appear in the top lane, in Yuan Shen's eyes, Gnar became a lamb hiding under the tower waiting to be slaughtered.

How strong is Kled's tower diving ability?

So far, no professional player has demonstrated Kled's tower diving ability.

"Chenglu, get ready! Calculate the timing of skill W!"

Yuan Shen controlled Taliyah and went straight to the top lane.

"it is good!"

TheShy is very happy.

He got a kill in the last wave, went home to make Tiamat, and then kept pushing the line.

Before the soldiers were about to enter the tower, Kled suddenly used an EQ and rushed across the soldier line to Gnar's side.

Since 957 maintained a good distance, Kled's [Joust] didn't hit, but the hook did!
In this blood exchange, 957 handled it very calmly and did not use E immediately because the displacement distance of Gnar's E skill was not enough to break the hook.

If you use E first, Kled will pull you back and deal you a full set of damage.

957's choice is to wait for Kled to catch up, and after he has just launched two basic attacks with [Violent Nature], he will directly use the E skill to jump onto Kled, triggering a double jump, creating distance, and then throw a dart to slow down Kled, and then use three basic attacks to trigger the three rings.

In this exchange of blood, Gnar made a profit.

Kled's main output skill is [Violent Temperament], and 70% of the output comes from the health percentage damage attached to the fourth W.

As long as Kled doesn't deal the fourth damage to Gnar, he will win no matter how he exchanges blood.

Seeing this, Yuan Shen smiled instead.

Gnar is currently in an impotent period where he cannot accumulate rage to transform. His operating limit is extremely low, and he has also given up his E skill, which is crucial for little Gnar.

To catch Gnar like this, he doesn't even need to do anything.

"Now that he's dead, you still have to hold the tower while I stay healthy." Yuan Shen gave the direct command.

If he catches it, the opponent may attack the little dragon.

He must maintain sufficient condition so that he can ensure sufficient combat capability when the ultimate move comes to support him.

The soldiers entered the tower, and when Gnar was finishing off the enemy, Kled lingered in front of the tower for two seconds, as if he was waiting for something.

Then, he walked into the tower brazenly and got face to face with Nar.

——Swept down with the sword.

"What does it mean?"

957 couldn't help but shout out. Although Kled's main output skill is Violent Nature, the way to add points is actually to focus on Q and E as the secondary.

Like Crocodile's W skill, it relies on W but no extra points are needed in the early stages.

As a professional top laner, 957 knows that the cooldown of Kled's level 1 W is 14 seconds.

It's only been about seven or eight seconds since the last blood exchange. How can you jump over the tower and attack me without W?

Kled started with AQ, and 957 Gary leaned against the defensive tower and started to attack A without any fear.

Is TheShy committing a crime?

957 thought so.

Because, without W, it really doesn't hurt at all when Kled's sword hits Gnar.

On the contrary, the three rings constantly triggered by Small Gnar's basic attack and the damage from the defense tower caused Kled's health to drop sharply.

Soon, the purple part of Kled's health bar, which belonged to his mount Skaarl, was wiped out.

Skarr ran away and Krema was gone.

The moment he falls off his horse, Kled will be in an unselectable state, and the defensive hatred will completely disappear.

Kled without a horse is worse than a dog. Moreover, with the defensive tower behind him, Kled would definitely not dare to attack him. Instead, 957 felt murderous intent.

Gnar fired another Q, but was surprised to find...

"Fuck! Why is Taliyah here?!"

Taliyah used a set of skills, but TheShy's Kled did not show any fear.

Kled was not afraid at all, and actually counterattacked directly under the tower!
"——A normal person would run away, but I won't!!"

General Krey roared angrily.

"They made a mistake in defending the tower!"

957 seemed to have grabbed the last straw.

In this wave, Kled started attacking before Taliyah entered the tower.

That way, they could at least replace one!
However, Krey's violent temper had completely cooled down the moment he fell from his horse.

Under everyone's astonished gaze, the furious knight who had lost his mount stood face to face with Gnar.

The defense tower immediately locked onto this arrogant knight who was furious and lost his mind.

[Violent Temperament] In a frenzy state, normal attacks are launched rapidly in all directions.

Each time Kled deals a basic attack to a hero, he gains 19 rage points. When his Q is not mounted and hits a hero, it gains 25 rage points.

AAAA Tiamat AQ——

Anger suddenly burst forth.

Krey is still alive, regroup!
Thump thump thump!

The sound of war drums rang out, and mount Skaarl returned.

The sixth level Kled's health bar suddenly increased by 60%.

Kled's E skill and W skill have the same cooldown time, and they have been cooled down.

Start with the first part of the duel, hit with the Q skill, and after two normal attacks, trigger the second part of the E, and then A again.

With the damage from Taliyah, Gnar died instantly.

Kled was knocked down by the defensive tower again and survived with only a sliver of health left.

The screen was dark, and 957 stared blankly at the E-level skill that was two seconds away from cooling down. He suddenly remembered that Kled had been wandering outside the defense tower for two seconds, as if waiting for something, and he suddenly understood something.

The first wave of blood exchange outside the defensive tower was fundamentally aimed at forcing him to use his E skill.

Gnar’s level 1 E skill has a cooldown of 22 seconds.

Kled's W and E only last 14 seconds each, and his Q skill is even shorter, at only 7 seconds.

That is to say, when Kled's second set of skills is ready, Gnar's E is still on cooldown.

The two seconds of waiting are waiting for the skill to cool down.

The first wave of blood exchange paves the way for Gnar to use his E skill.

Calculate the damage of Gnar and the defensive tower, and make sure Kled has W in his hand at the moment of falling.

AAAA Tiamat AQ, the use of skills to mount the horse instantly, and absolute confidence in damage calculation.

After figuring it all out, 957 felt horrified.

He inferred the process and cause from the result, which is purely hindsight.

TheShy, who anticipated all this in advance, is the real terror.

TheShy now really feels a bit like Yuan Shen last year.

At first, people thought this apprentice was just joking.

I didn't expect it to develop to this point.

TheShy's strength and laning intensity have made many people recall the fear when Yuan Shen dominated the top lane.

Many people cannot understand why many top laners fail miserably when facing Yuan Shen and are killed in various ways.

I can only say that what you say on paper is not enough. After facing off against Yuan Shen in person and being killed by him once, I realized that there is a reason why so many of the world's top laners were killed by him.

It’s not that they are bad, they just can’t think that deeply.

This guy's laning ability is very close to the ceiling of the game League of Legends.

Although there is still a gap between TheShy and the current one, he is very close.

The audience and commentators could not understand so many details, but the shock was not diminished at all.

What did they see?
Even though Kled had better equipment, he was only ahead by a few hundred pieces. With the same health and status, how could he kill the opponent in front of the defense tower?
Even with the help of Taliyah, it was still terrifying.

Because it was Kled who was defending the tower from beginning to end, and he killed Gnar by going against the tower's output.

What if the defense tower doesn't exist?
In the game, there are many scenes in the later stages where the defense towers are ignored, but in the early stages... there are really none.

Is the hero Kled really that strong?

Such a domineering killing method caused the barrage in the live broadcast room to explode instantly. In addition to the screen full of 666, all kinds of jokes and memes were also flying around.

"I'm cracked. This Kled is like a NM ghost."

"Warning! Warning! The national server will welcome a large number of Kled tonight."

"Defense Tower: I beg you to look at me!"

"Kretama is gone, Kretama is here, his horse is too fierce!"

"Hey, Malay---!!!"

For the top laner, the most important thing is level.

Even if you die once, if you have TP to catch up, you can gain experience and it's not a big deal.

After 957 was killed by Pantheon in the first wave, he used TP to fill the line, so he was able to hold on.

But now, with TP not turning around, and dying again, my development is completely ruined.
Being certain that the opponent's mid and jungle were not nearby, the low-health Krieg pushed a wave of soldiers into the tower and then disappeared from 957's sight.

957 calculated that after this wave of returning to the city for supplies, if nothing unexpected happened, Kled would be nearly 2 levels ahead of him in experience, plus more than a thousand yuan in economy.

Blasted.

Gnar has completely lost the capital to fight against Kled. If he is not careful, this wave of tower diving and killing scenes is likely to happen again. He doesn't even need Taliyah to help, Kled can kill him alone.

957 made a bitter face, threw back the small wooden hammer he had made, and took out the ninja footwear commonly known as durable shoes.

What to do?

I can only make pressure-resistant equipment.

But what he never expected was that after this wave of equipment updates, Kled did not go directly back to the line to expand his laning advantage, but ran to the bottom lane to cause trouble.

When the top laner does not have TP, he basically has no chance to go to the bottom lane because the distance is too far and out of reach. Unless he is a hero like Sion, Kled, or Pantheon who can provide long-distance support, otherwise, even if he goes to the bottom lane, he will most likely be wasting time wandering around.

It is obvious that Kled can support the bottom lane, but WE was caught in a state of confusion and did not think of this for a while.

957 was still in a daze after being killed, and did not provide any feedback in time.

There is no doubt that this was a tactical mistake by WE.

charge!

A blow from heaven!
Wall curtain!

Three ultimate skills are aimed at the bottom lane, forming a tight net with nowhere to escape.

WE's mid and jungle immediately rushed to the bottom lane to provide support, however, this encirclement was not a four-on-two situation.

It’s five for two!!

Four against two, if Ashe and Braum can delay the game enough, Leblanc and Lee Sin can clean up the mess, and WE will have the advantage.

With one more person, the situation was completely different, and the balance of the battlefield completely tilted towards IG.

Under the concentrated fire of five people, even if Ashe was protected by Braum and had two skills in hand, it was useless.

Han Bing didn't even last a second before he died instantly.

Kled took the top tower and continued to force his way across it.

There is a dismounting mechanism. When Kled reaches his limit, Pantheon with a shield will take over. If that doesn't work, Ming's Thresh's lantern can pick him up and let someone else take on the tower.

If lineups are divided into tower diving levels, IG's lineup is undoubtedly a T0 level lineup for tower diving.

Even a strong man like Braum couldn't withstand the siege of five big men.

Seeing that Braum was about to die, the WE mid and jungle who rushed to the bottom lane should have made the most correct decision at this time to decisively sell him off.

But Xiye and Condi both want to fight.

The reason is very simple. By selling the bottom lane in this wave, they lost two kills, and also had to give away the first blood tower and the little dragon.

Rushing forward 2 vs 5 to clean up the mess, the mid and jungle may also die, but it is also possible to reverse the situation.

Give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle.

If it is IM, this wave will most likely be a retreat, dragging the game to the later stages.

But sitting and waiting to die is not WE's style!
This team always has a fighting spirit even in desperate situations.

Leblanc flashes WR into the field and deals full damage, forcing Kled who is on the top tower to fall.

In fact, the output of Leblanc is enough to kill Kled instantly, but there is something very disgusting about Kled's dismounting mechanism.

That is, no matter how high your burst is, it is absolutely impossible to kill him instantly before Kled dismounts. Skaarl's presence will block all the damage for Kled at that moment.

At the same time, Lee Sin used his ward to cut into the battlefield, got face to face with Pantheon, and threw out a flying kick.

"Iku!!"

91 Mr. Li's Raptors tail swing followed by a flash!
Mr. Kang is still young and inexperienced, and is completely focused on professional competitions. He is in his prime.

The angle and speed of this R flash were extremely tricky, and Pantheon was kicked away without even having a chance to react.

And in the trajectory where Pantheon was knocked away, there were also the figures of Kled and Taliyah.

Three Rs with one kick, the audience burst into exclamations!
The Sound Wave attacked and hit Kled in the front, and Lee Sin used the second stage of Q.

The damage of Q with a killing effect is enough to take down Kled.

Take down Kled's 3/0 head, and this exchange will be worth it.

Mr. Kang's mind raced like thunder, but the next moment, everyone, including him, was stunned.

Just as Lee Sin's Echo Slam rushed in front of Kled, a golden light flashed under Kled's feet and he distanced himself from him.

Then, Taliyah's W followed by E hit Lee Sin hard! !
This scene made the audience scream wildly.

Because it looks really weird.

Some people said that Lee Sin's second Q was interrupted by Taliyah's W.

Some people say that Kled flashed to avoid the second Q damage of Lee Sin.

There are different opinions.

In short, Kled, who should have been killed by Lee Sin, survived.

"????"

Mr. Kang's honest face showed a dazed expression. He even forgot how to operate and was directly surrounded and killed by the five big men from IG.

At this time, TheShy was not the only one showing off. After Xiye's Ahri WR finished a set of skills, he immediately used W to return to the original position, but was hit by Ming's Thresh's flash Q.

A fragile hero like Leblanc will die after being controlled.

WE's mid and jungle cooperated, one died and the other was sent away.

Under normal circumstances, the commentators would definitely praise Ming's amazing prediction.

but now……

Everyone's attention was focused on Kled's flash and Taliyah's W interrupting Lee Sin's second Q.

"Brother, I'm seriously waiting for my common sense in League of Legends to be challenged."

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan showed a serious and horrified expression, and said in surprise: "Isn't it common sense that Lee Sin's second Q can't be avoided by flash? Why can TheShy flash to avoid it? This is not scientific at all!"

"It should be interrupted by Taliyah's W. This damage cannot be interrupted."

Smiling is also very tangled.

He remembered that Lee Sin's second Q couldn't be avoided by flash.

If it is interpreted as Taliyah's W interrupting the second stage of Q, this makes sense.

only……

"It looks like he was lifted up after Lee Sin's second Q ended."

PDD shook his head, puzzled.

Lee Sin is the heartthrob of League of Legends.

Anyone who plays League of Legends, even if they don’t play it themselves, must have encountered the hero Lee Sin.

You must have also encountered a situation where you were hit by Lee Sin's Q when you were low on health.

In this situation, except for some heroes who have skills that can interrupt, 80% of players will choose to wait for death, because the second stage of Lee Sin's Q is like a homing missile. Once it is launched, it will follow you to the end of the world.

The remaining 20% ​​of players will end up flashing to move the grave. Those who do this are either newbies or make subconscious operational mistakes.

Or you may want to pull Lee Sin into the defensive tower and replace him.

It has become common knowledge for many players that Lee Sin's second Q cannot be dodged by flash.

But actually...

"The damage from Lee Sin's second Q can be dodged. The key is timing."

Yuan Shen said: "If you dodge too early, Lee Sin will follow you. If you dodge too late, it's meaningless because you've already taken damage. You have to grasp the moment when the damage is about to explode but hasn't yet exploded..."

"I wasn't close enough and my shot was too slow, but luckily Cheng Lu reacted quickly enough."

Yuan Shen shrugged and added.

"Xiao Ming's prediction hook is very cool! I'll give you a chicken drumstick when I get back!"

"hey-hey."

Xiao Ming touched his head.

"Brother Yuan, you are the real awesome one."

Jack's face was full of admiration.

Since the tower dive in the top lane, Yuan Shen has been giving orders, even explaining how Kled should perform combos and operations.

In other words, TheShy can fully understand Yuan Shen's command and then perform this operation on the spot.

If you don't have some tacit understanding and talent, you will be confused.

In this wave, TheShy originally wanted to save a teleport and go directly to the lane, but was directly shaken to the bottom lane by Yuan Shen.

This is how we got a zero-for-four rhythm!

Yuan Shen’s significance to IG goes far beyond driving the rhythm in the early stages and carrying the overall situation in the late stages. His meticulous and accurate command is the biggest reason for IG’s victory.
