Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 192 Explosive Kill of Caps! Three Lanes Open!

Without jungle support, the bottom lane should focus on farming in the early game.

Even if Vayne uses her range advantage to steal points and gain a health advantage, it's practically impossible to get a solo kill with Tahm Kench as support unless Rekkles makes a major mistake.

In the mid lane, Caps' Malzahar is not capable of fighting against Ryze before level 3.

However, the characteristics of the hero Malzahar perfectly make up for this deficiency.

Because Malzahar's skills have a relatively large range, he can easily go up and use his E skill to last-hit minions.

In addition to the shield effect of his passive [Void Passage], Malzahar is considered one of the safest champions for last-hitting minions in League of Legends.

Of course, Xiaohu's wandering ability was already very strong.

While it can't match Brother Li's five-star proficiency, it's definitely at least four-star.

Despite Caps's extremely cautious play, Xiaohu's solid fundamentals allowed Caps to reduce Xiaohu's health by a third before level three and secure crucial lane control.

AEQAWQA, seizing on a mistake by Caps, Xiaohu unleashed all of his skills with lightning speed.

Like a thousand-armed Guanyin, he wandered around, his skills flying wildly, making the audience in front of the screen shout "6" repeatedly.

Skill hits precisely, phase trigger!

It's a bit difficult for grasshoppers to dodge skills.

Because the hero, Grasshopper, has an inherent disadvantage in terms of model design.

Despite having a movement speed of 335, which is considered fast even among mages, it's a bit difficult to get the grasshopper to dodge skills.

Xiaohu's audacity in attacking Malzahar is understandable; Troll Warlord's ganking efficiency is poor, and with the Phase Boots' speed boost, it will be even harder for Troll Warlord to catch Sven.

This time, Caps lost a lot of health, dropping to below half, even with magic resistance runes.

Seeing how fierce and aggressive Xiaohu was, the director immediately focused the camera on the mid lane to see if Xiaohu had a chance to solo kill Caps.

Without its shield and health, the grasshopper could only cower in the distance.

Even getting experience points requires caution, while the Wanderer, relying on his phase advantage, directly crossed the river midline and pressed behind the minion wave.

The two mid laners would fight whenever they had the chance. Before they knew it, Malzahar had used up both of his health potions and his health was down to half.

In contrast, the wanderer's health and mana are in a relatively safe position.

Another large wave of minions is about to enter the tower. As expected, this wave of minions will definitely not let Malzahar just sit idly by and finish farming the lane and go home.

then
"First blood!"

The moment First Blood was triggered, everyone was still staring intently at Ryze, who was about to enter the tower, ready to see what he would do, when they were stunned.

The first blood was actually taken by Xiao Dongbei's vampire.

On the top lane, a kill broke out first.

The director immediately switched the camera to the top lane, but at this point, only the giant bug lying on the ground and the troll who hurriedly retreated remained in the top lane.

The director was a little embarrassed and immediately released the replay.

This was a battle started by the junglers, but in the end, both junglers remained unscathed, while FNC's top laner fell.

The troll and Olaf fought fiercely over the Scuttle Crab in the upper river.

The Vladimir, who had early lane control, immediately came to support, and Cho'Gath (Bwipo) also rushed over, pushing through the minion wave.

However, with only one level of Q in the early game, the troll's chances of winning against Olaf are only 40/60.

After discussing it, Xiao Dongbei and Xiao Tian turned around and started killing the even more cumbersome big bug.

This Vayne has Teleport, and the Vladimir has Ignite.

The giant bug initially thought it was tanky enough to challenge the two, but once they engaged, the sheer damage output of the two surprised even the troll behind it.

With Olaf's Q ability to stick to targets, FNC's top and jungle, lacking damage output, failed to focus fire and kill one of their players immediately. Instead, RNG's top and jungle took down one of their own.

After the vampire unleashed his red-rage Q and his fully charged E, the troll could only watch Olaf, who had only one-third of his health remaining, retreat helplessly.

"FNC's decision in this play was a bit unwise. Knowing that Vladimir had W, they immediately focused all their damage on Olaf, only to have Olaf dodge Cho'Gath's WQ with Flash. Trundle was also put out of position. If it weren't for Vladimir's Ignite, the two could have fought."

Changmao calmly analyzed the situation and attributed the first blood to "Rng having an extra Ignite".

However, he was unable to see through RNG's true premeditation in this move.

The two fought in the river.

In a normal game, Xiaotian would definitely go to the mid lane to seek support from the laner who was pushing the lane.

But what's strange is that Olaf went on a much longer route.

This isn't a case of those involved being confused while bystanders see things clearly.

From God's perspective, this move was completely unseen, as RNG had already laid the groundwork during the draft phase.

The road trip was a huge loss.

The big bug died once, and after using its teleport to log back in, it no longer had two summoner spells.

Furthermore, due to the previous wave of support, a large wave of minions pushed into the tower, and after the top lane tower destroyed them, the lane was pushed back.

The line has now reached the middle of the river. To cross it and capture the line, you need a good view to ensure your safety.

Even with a view of the area, Bwipo didn't dare to go any further.

After returning home, Xiao Dongbei thought for a while and decided to go back to the city to upgrade the "Shy Knife" that would later become famous, extract it, and then go online.

The Cho'Gath is definitely going to play cautiously now. Unless Xiaotian's Olaf comes up and tries to kill him, he can forget about fighting the Cho'Gath.

However, once Vampire Extract is acquired, the development speed is extremely fast. Not only does it grant an extra gold for each last hit, but it also grants an extra 350 gold after the Extract is fully upgraded.

The advantage in the top lane has been established, and the director has just finished the replay when the mid lane starts fighting again.

Another wave of minions pushed into the tower. Caps wanted to find an opportunity to recall to base to buy equipment and teleport back up, but Xiaohu's Ryze kept pushing the lane, giving Caps no chance to catch his breath.

The grasshopper doesn't have a passive shield.

The wanderer who entered the tower began to act impulsively.

The E skill is first applied to Malzahar, pulling him out of the turret's range, and then pushed back in.

AWQEQ, using the phase advantage, directly run towards the middle of the first and second towers.

Caps reacted quickly, applying his E skill to Ryze the instant Ryze entered the tower, and then predictively threw a Q, but it was dodged by the speed boost from Phase Boots.

The grasshopper's health bar had dropped to around 100, but he was still holding onto his Flash.

He wasn't sure if Olaf was lurking nearby, so he kept his positioning within the range of the first tower.

But Xiaohu really grasped Caps' psychological factor and predicted that he wouldn't dare to use Flash.

Flat A!

58 blood!

The grasshopper's health suddenly dropped to a point where there was only one bar left on the screen, meaning it could be taken down with just one EQ combo and a basic attack.

Both players held onto their Flash abilities very tightly. There was no way around it; the nature of Ryze's abilities meant that this Flash was a battle of wits between the two.

But Ryze has already positioned himself well, which means that as long as his skills are ready and he still has a health advantage, Ryze doesn't need to rush. He can just use AEAA to take him down. Flash, one hit, E, and two more auto-attacks to finish off Caps' remaining health.

"Solo kill, I'm going to solo kill!"

Xiaohu was excited, but his hands didn't falter, perfectly positioning himself between the first and second towers.

However, just as he was about to step forward and deliver the attack, Malzahar's passive shield suddenly turned back on.

The situation between the two suddenly reversed. To kill Malzahar alone, he must first break through with a basic attack.

Moreover, the grasshopper's passive ability has a particularly disgusting aspect.

If Malzahar has not been damaged or controlled recently, he will gain a huge amount of damage reduction and immunity to control effects, and this effect will remain for a short time after taking damage.

Although this gap is not as long as a second, it lasts for at least 0.3 seconds.

Only by timing this cooldown perfectly can you defeat the grasshopper.

"Wow, Malzahar's shield is ready now. Let's see what Xiaohu decides this time, should he leave or not???"

Wu Wukai is a professional mid-lane player, so he naturally knows the current predicament of Liu Lang.

"We can't escape! The Trundle has already pushed up from the bottom half of the map. You know, the Trundle has his E to lock down enemies. Even if Xiaohu uses Flash, he can't get away from this position. He's too deep."

"Deeper?"

"Yes, Xiaohu went too deep."

"There's no way out. The Troll is already here. I think if Xiaohu had a god-like perspective and could see the Troll, he should go up and trade Flash with Malzahar. Otherwise, if Malzahar reaches level 6 and uses Flash to suppress Ryze, plus the Troll on the other side, Ryze is doomed."

The three commentators spoke rapidly, one after the other.

As they were talking, the Wanderer's E skill had already been ready. Xiaohu in the picture seemed to hesitate for a moment, but then immediately made up his mind.

This wave is going to be a hit!

The arrow is on the string and must be fired!
"Xiaohu's going to attack here! My god, he's just walking right up! Let's see how Caps handles this."

"The first basic attack has landed, breaking Malzahar's shield, but it's still active. Let's see if Xiaohu's E skill can deal damage."

Wu Wukai had pressed his face close to the screen and was roaring.

"Here, here is E, here Xiaohu's E was timed perfectly to the moment Malzahar's passive disappeared, dealing damage and even adding a basic attack."

"My god, what kind of god-like battle is this? These two are still holding onto their Flash abilities."

The E skill's damage has already been dealt. All that's needed next is a QA combo. If the Q skill hits, the player can trade kills with Malzahar.

There was only one minion left, and Xiaohu didn't have much time to think about his Q route. If he couldn't kill the minion after it died, he would be solo killed by Caps.

"Xiaohu has moved! He's already started the Q skill animation! My god, Caps is actually going to use his W summon to block this deadly Q skill! The summon is positioned perfectly in front of Caps!"

"Now there's an insurmountable chasm separating the homeless from the grasshoppers."

He finished speaking in almost a second, demonstrating the full extent of the professional skills he had honed in the live streaming room.

"Ryze flashed! At this angle, at this angle he can hit Caps! Can he hit him?!"

PDD's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as he watched helplessly as the wanderer flashed to one incredible angle after another.

"Caps flashed too, wait, Xiaohu actually boldly predicted Caps' flash location, what kind of monster is that?"

The precise Q skill is like a pinpoint; a Q skill fired completely sideways, incredibly predicting the location where Caps might flash.

A subsequent basic attack landed precisely on the grasshopper, wiping out its last bit of health.

He himself was also knocked to the ground by the last attack from the defensive tower.

The two sides exchanged mid laners.

"Wow, this exchange was incredibly intense! Both mid laners were absolutely brilliant, but Xiaohu right now... all I can say is, I feel like I'm seeing Xiaohu from S6!"

"he!"

"He's incredibly strong!"

Longhair stammered twice, still unable to think of a way to praise Little Tiger, and could only say that he was too fierce.

The viewers in front of the screen were stunned. This was an amazing play that anyone with eyes could see, enhanced by the God's-eye view. Even some of the viewers who were critical of Tiger were dumbfounded.

"Is this Xiaohu? Is this the same Xiaohu who can handle pressure as soon as he goes to the World Championship?"

"Little Tiger's urine test report showed not a single drop of urine containing stimulants!"

"I, the Uchiha clan, acknowledge Uzumaki Naruto as the strongest."

"Caps must be stunned by this display of skill, right?"

"66666"

"Mom, don't ask me why I'm kneeling while watching the live stream! These people are just too amazing!"

The three commentators haven't even started watching the replay yet, but let's give a detailed review of Xiaohu's psychological maneuvering and the nuances here.

The kill notification sound also rang out in the bottom lane.

When the director switched the camera to the bottom lane, all that was left was Braum fleeing in panic, and the place where Kai'Sa fell was even more than 800 yards away from her own tower.

"Is this RNG unleashing their full strength against the host team?"

Changmao, who hadn't officially commentated on any RNG matches this season, was stunned and had forgotten his lines.

It wasn't just because of RNG's aggressive invasions and kills in the early game, but also because of the huge reversal between the early and late game.

Vayne is a really weak champion in the early game; many ADCs can easily suppress her in the bot lane.

Even in ranked games, despite Vayne being difficult to deal with in the mid-to-late game, no one says Vayne is strong in the early game.

Vayne is the only ADC in League of Legends who lacks area-of-effect (AOE) wave clear ability.

Once you figure out that Vayne can only push lanes with basic attacks, and you target her, this hero is really very weak. In the previous few trades, although Li Luo won the trades, the minion wave kept pushing towards RNG's tower.

This is also why Vayne has had a hard time getting playing time this season, especially after Kai'Sa came out.

It's too weak in the early game, too reliant on items, and slows down the pace of the game.

Therefore, all three commentators were thinking about how to commentate on the fights in the top, mid, and jungle lanes during this game.

Before we could even begin talking about the mid lane, Vayne, who was being pushed down in the bottom lane, managed to kill Kai'Sa with the help of a Tahm Kench.

The director was in a real bind, but had no choice but to replay the fight in the mid lane first.

"Xiaohu is really meticulous here. In just a few minutes, he's already out-farmed Caps by almost 15 CS, and he's even using a champion like Ryze. It seems Xiaohu has a deep understanding of support champions."

"And this time, Grasshopper's money is in a tight spot. He doesn't have enough to buy the 850-point stick, let alone a lunchbox. As a result, Grasshopper's Time Staff will have to slow down his pace. Hey, is Grasshopper going to make an Ice Gun right now?"

"Making Ice Lance will significantly reduce Malzahar's survivability, especially his early-game lane sustain; it will be greatly diminished."

Seeing that the grasshopper had bought the small book, Wu Wukai remarked with considerable insight.

But the three of them were already completely absorbed by the kill in the bottom lane. Changmao even gestured to the director, asking him to quickly switch to the kill footage in the bottom lane.

It's battle night today, so the update is late (facepalm). Five Karma in Clone Mode were so much fun!
