Chapter 447: Early Game: Learning from Imprisonment! Mid-Game: Single-Handed Farming!
The director also brought the camera to the top lane ahead of time. The good news is that IG did not deliberately target him at the beginning of the game, and Flandre managed to get experience from the first two waves of minions.
However, as the minion wave was about to reach the tower, Flandre guessed when the enemy jungler would come to the top lane, so he had no choice but to retreat.
They didn't even dare to stay under the tower, and retreated straight towards their own top lane second tower.
At that moment, the troll rushed out from the triangular bush behind the tower, activated his W skill, and then used his E skill to summon a pillar in an attempt to block the captain's retreat route.
"TheShy is coming to support, what about Flandre?"
What else can we do but obediently use Flash?
The captain used Flash to create distance, and IG's top and jungle players followed the unwritten rules, flashing away without killing the captain.
That's enough.
Helping Lucian force out Flash is already a huge advantage.
Captain is a squishy champion in the early game and has no way to escape. Without Flash, he can easily be solo killed by Lucian.
Logically, EDG should have launched a major attack on IG's bot lane at this point.
But it's of no use.
The bottom lane is a duo lane, which is inherently more difficult to target than a solo lane in the early game. IG also openly traded jungle camps with EDG, so the bottom lane was already prepared.
More importantly, IG's bot lane duo, Ashe and Braum, are extremely strong at preventing tower dives in the early game.
EDG's bot lane roster features Sivir, who lacks any burst damage in the early game and simply doesn't have enough damage output.
Braum can simply lift the security door in front of him to help his ADC avoid fatal damage and survive.
"From the current perspective, IG has initially achieved their strategic goal at the start, which is to help TheShy establish a certain advantage."
"Then, take advantage of the top lane to snowball the whole thing. Let's see how it develops next."
"EDG currently has no chance to fight back; they can only slowly develop in the early stages."
Wang Yao glanced at the situation in the top and bottom lanes, but still chose to focus on farming. The situation was bad for Flandre, but he believed in Flandre's ability to withstand pressure.
This is what it means to have 100% trust in your teammates!
Xiaotian still managed to find an opportunity to go to the top lane, helping Flandre force TheShy to retreat, then safely farmed several waves of minions, and subsequently provided a lot of vision for him before leaving.
This helped stabilize the situation in the top lane.
There were no direct clashes between the two sides in the early stages, and the first kill had not occurred until 5 minutes into the game.
Ning Wang once again came to the top lane.
The timing of his move was very clever; it was right when Flandre was about to push the lane and go back to base to replenish his supplies. Flandre positioned himself quite far forward in order to push the lane.
Upon discovering the Prince of Ning, he immediately retreated and then used two barrels to slow down the Prince of Ning.
But Prince Ning was determined to kill, so he teleported and forced his way in. Although he failed to kill the captain, he managed to drive him away.
Ning did this because he wanted to help TheShy control the minion wave.
Saint Gun looked back and saw that the minion wave was indeed broken.
TheShy has positioned the minion wave perfectly.
After a moment's thought, he decided to forcefully use his ultimate ability to clear the minion wave and push it forward.
The problem is, he still miscalculated.
"This ultimate move, Holy Gun Bro forced his ultimate to clear the minions, let's see how it goes? Oh no, there are still two melee minions left."
Miller exclaimed in surprise.
As expected, TheShy managed to block the minion wave, and because the Trundle hadn't gone far, the Captain didn't dare to turn around and deal with the two low-health melee minions.
As a result, Lucian used the two low-health melee minions, along with his own body, to forcefully hold the minion wave off the tower, effectively blocking it there.
"Xiba."
When Flandre saw this, he couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.
Upon hearing this curse, Wang Yao switched screens again to check the top lane.
It can only be said that the situation in the top lane was even worse than he had imagined. Without Flash, the captain had no chance to farm against such a minion wave.
A single misstep in positioning could result in Lucian taking you down instantly.
"Brother Yao, how about we find an opportunity to gank the top lane?"
Xiao Tian also saw that his team had encountered a very bad situation on the road and immediately made a suggestion.
"No."
Wang Yao shook his head, "Going there won't make a difference. IG is obviously protecting their top laner."
Saint Gun Bro then spoke up, "You don't need to worry about me, I'm fine."
Unable to farm minions, Flandre had no choice but to return to base to replenish his supplies. Considering the risk of being solo-killed, he simply equipped himself with a 300-gold cloth armor.
Then, when he wanted to go online, he encountered Ning, who was stealing jungle camps, in his own jungle once again, and the two met.
Although Flandre drove Ning out of the jungle, he knew very well that he would still face risks after returning to his lane, because Trundle was always active in the top half of the map.
He could only pace back and forth on the top side, wondering if he could sniff out some experience at the extreme distance.
TheShy is a bad person too.
As soon as they saw that Flandre was thinking of coming to sniff the experience, they immediately crossed the minion wave to drive him away, leaving him no way out at all.
They already have a favorable matchup, and now they're a full level ahead, so the captain can forget about playing.
"That's the meaning of counter and swing."
Wang Ji, seeing the captain's current predicament, sighed, "In this game, EDG was indeed outmaneuvered by IG in terms of lineup. I guess Coach Maokai never expected IG to field Lucian in the top lane."
"Lucian also performed his suppression role very well. Now it depends on how IG makes good use of this huge advantage in the top lane."
"At the same time, we can also see how EDG can turn this unfavorable situation around."
Wang Yao has indeed been thinking about countermeasures.
In the mid lane, he was able to secure lane priority, mainly thanks to the early farming ability provided by [Kleptomancy], which allowed him to complete [Lost Chapter] when he returned to base at level 6.
It's not something you can normally make. With this equipment, he can use skills frequently to clear lanes.
I thought about it.
Wang Yao spoke directly.
"Xiao Tian, let's go to the bottom lane."
Once Sivir levels up, the bot lane priority is in the hands of EDG's bot lane duo.
The Beastmaster and Xin Zhao headed straight for the bottom lane.
IG quickly got hold of this information, and Ashe's probe arrow immediately revealed the two of them.
But it's of no use.
Their own jungler, Trundle, was still in the top half of the map and couldn't quickly provide support.
If it's 3 packs of 2, then it's still possible to make a move.
If you have 4 people surrounding 2, you're basically just waiting to die under the tower.
Yu Wenbo and Baolan had no choice but to abandon the large number of minions under the tower and retreat.
"It's alright. Although we didn't get any kills, we successfully disrupted Ashe's development. Ashe lost at least two waves of minions in this wave, and IG's bottom lane tower also suffered huge damage!"
For a while, everyone's attention was focused on the halfway point, and they forgot about the captain.
at this time.
Wang suddenly remarked, "Huh? The captain is in such a bad state? I remember that 3 minutes ago, the captain had 34 last hits, how come it's been more than 9 minutes now and the captain still only has 34 last hits?"
"Has it taken all this time and you haven't finished him off with a single stab?!"
Only then did everyone realize that the captain's situation was far more miserable than they had imagined.
"I remember that this captain had 34 last hits three minutes ago, which means that Flandre didn't get a single last hit in those three minutes? That's too ruthless!"
Miller said incredulously.
When the camera switched back to the top lane, the captain was still standing awkwardly in the back, unable to go up and farm minions.
At this point, Lucian's CS count had reached 78, a full 34 CS ahead of him, effectively doubling his CS count!
"This is a huge hidden danger. With the captain's current development, he can't provide any effective help to the team in a head-on team battle."
Wang Ji frowned.
Fortunately, although there was no finishing blow, I still managed to gain some experience. The captain's level didn't fall far behind; he was only one level behind, which was barely acceptable.
"its not right."
Wawa suddenly mentioned, "But there isn't a huge economic gap between the two sides; IG is only slightly ahead by about 400 gold."
"Because EDG has a certain advantage in the mid and bottom lanes," Wang Jide explained.
"The mid-lane LeBlanc has Kleptomancy, and EDG's mid and jungle just ganked the bot lane, forcing IG's bot lane to lose more than two waves of minions. In addition, Gangplank's passive makes him farm more gold." This can be explained to some extent.
Seeing this, Xiao Tian couldn't help but worry and reminded him, "You really should go help the top lane."
"No."
Wang Yao shook his head again, "Even if we went, we wouldn't be able to win."
The current captain has almost no combat ability; helping the strong and not the weak is an ironclad rule in League of Legends competitions.
We must now find a way to help the captain reverse this disadvantage.
Wang Yao checked the time and then began to ponder the situation of the minions on the top and bottom lanes.
On this side of the road.
TheShy has finally stopped controlling the lane, not because his fundamentals are bad.
With TheShy's individual skill, he can control the top lane minion wave in the position he wants, as long as he wants.
He chose to push the lane voluntarily, and the reason is quite simple.
The time has reached 9 minutes and 20 seconds, and it will soon be the 10-minute mark when the Rift Herald spawns.
As the most fed player in the IG lineup and the most relied-upon damage dealer in the Vanguard team, he must quickly return home to convert his gold into equipment and improve his actual combat power.
The captain can finally connect to the enemy lines and farm minions to develop his strength.
Wang Yao then spoke up, "Xiao Zhao, don't farm this wave of minions in the bottom lane, go back to base early and gather at the Rift Herald. Xuan Jun, after you finish farming the top lane minions, go straight to the bottom lane."
The normal lane swapping behavior is to clear the minion waves on both the top and bottom lanes before swapping lanes.
Wang Yao's arrangement was tantamount to forcing the bottom lane to give up two waves of minions to the captain.
At this point, it's pointless for the captain to be on the front line. It's better to take advantage of the situation where both sides are likely to be engaged in a skirmish around the Rift Herald to create space for the captain to farm.
Anyway, as long as the captain can provide support with one ultimate in the bottom lane, that's enough.
Sometimes, the Captain's main body isn't that important; it's his ultimate ability that's incredibly valuable!
The entire EDG team followed Wang Yao's instructions and began switching lanes, while IG seemed to think that EDG was hesitant to engage in team fights.
The chosen arrangement was quite conventional: the support player would go to the top side of the map to meet up with the teammates and contest vision, while Ashe would go to the bottom lane to farm minions and develop her strength.
By the time IG realized EDG's intention to engage in a team fight and had already switched their bot lane duo to the top lane, it was too late.
This puts IG at a disadvantage in controlling vision around the Baron pit.
"Huh? EDG's shot-calling is pretty good. On the contrary, IG is having a hard time establishing vision here, and without Ashe in the front, IG seems hesitant to approach. EDG decisively activated the Rift Herald!"
EDG didn't hesitate; Wang Yao decisively directed his teammates to open the Rift Herald.
IG's vision inside the dragon pit saw this situation, and they were having a heated discussion.
"Wait for me, wait for me!"
Yu Wenbo kept shouting that he had abandoned the bottom lane minions and was moving towards this side, almost reaching the mid lane.
"If all else fails, give the Rift Herald to the enemy, then hold them in place and slaughter them at will!"
"Alright, I can also try to snatch it if I get the chance."
Prince Ning nodded, agreeing with his statement.
EDG will definitely pay a heavy price!
The IG players grouped up and moved over as well.
"Is IG about to engage in a team fight? The jungler and support are leading the charge, and it seems like TheShy is trying to flank?"
As the Rift Herald's health dwindled, IG's jungler and support moved forward as much as possible.
However, just as the Rift Herald's health dropped to near zero, Xin Zhao used Smite to kill it, and that wasn't the end of it.
Almost simultaneously, Zhao Xin used his E skill to poke the Trundle walking in front of the crowd, and then launched him into the air with a single shot!
Clearly, Xiaotian did this premeditatedly. He activated his Q when the Rift Herald was low on health, auto-attacked twice, and then timed his third shot.
IG is plotting against EDG, but EDG is thinking the same thing!
After knocking the troll into the air, Xin Zhao immediately activated his ultimate, sweeping away Braum who was next to the troll, preventing him from protecting the troll immediately.
Wang Yao went even further, using W to step on the troll's face, followed by QR and E, unleashing the highest single-target burst combo.
After Sivir activates her ultimate, she first uses her Q, then unleashes her A and W combo for massive damage.
The Minotaur next to him immediately followed up with a WQ combo to apply crowd control.
Meanwhile, the captain, far away in the bottom lane, didn't forget to throw in his ultimate to get an assist.
Ning's Troll Warlord couldn't cast a single skill throughout the entire game, and couldn't even use his ultimate to steal some armor and magic resistance.
He was instantly killed!
Firstblood!
A burst of blood!
In the chaos, Wang Yao secured the kill with a basic attack.
"Wow! IG has already lost one player, but EDG seems to have used up too many skills. Shai! Shai came out from behind and immediately started using his Holy Light. Sivir tried to dodge by moving left and right, but she got hit!"
That's right.
EDG may seem to have the advantage at the moment, but in reality, EDG has already used up all its skills and is in a vacuum period where it can output damage.
TheShy knows how to seize this opportunity.
He immediately used EW to move forward, attaching the W mark to Sivir, and then activated his ultimate, "The Cleaving of the Blades," unleashing a barrage of attacks.
While Sivir has a movement speed boost from her ultimate ability for sideways movement, Lucian also has a speed boost.
After unleashing a barrage of ultimate abilities, Lucian successfully reduced Sivir's health, forcing her to use her Heal.
At this moment, Braum flashed into the middle of the crowd and used his ultimate to force Sivir to use her Flash.
Lucian immediately flashed to follow up, and with an AQ combo followed by a few hits, he secured the kill on Sivir.
Braum then used his W ability to jump in front of Lucian, lifting up the security door to absorb damage for him, while Song Yijin's Aatrox activated [Destroy] and charged into the crowd.
"It's still hard to say right now. We'll see how things develop. EDG is currently trying to focus fire on Lucian, but they're lacking damage. Lucian doesn't have any escape skills. Xin Zhao flashed over, trying to finish him off."
Although Lucian was focused down, Braum's security door helped him block a lot of damage, making his health seem very low but he didn't die.
Fortunately, LeBlanc managed to flash in and forcefully close the gap with her AQE combo to kill Lucian.
However, Aatrox had already used Q1E to charge in and knock Xin Zhao into the air, and then tried to use Q2E to lock him down again.
Fortunately, the Enchantress ran fast enough, and Wang Yao could only fight and retreat at the same time. Zhao Xin also tried to leave, and Alistar was ready to sacrifice himself.
at this time.
A massive ice arrow shot over and accurately struck Zhao Xin, who was trying to escape. Soon after, the figure of the ice-cold figure also appeared on the front line of the battlefield.
"Wow... Ashe has arrived as reinforcements. EDG probably can't escape now." Miller sighed.
With Ashe joining the battle, Alistar and Xin Zhao were unable to escape either. Only Wang Yao's LeBlanc managed to escape by using her W, which had its cooldown refreshed, to create distance.
“Jack stepped up when the team needed him most.”
Wawa was still cheering for IG's team fight victory, saying, "This is the first time in three games that IG has a lead in kills over EDG! This is a great start! IG finally showed their true strength in the third game!"
In this team fight, the two sides traded 2 for 3.
IG's top and jungle players sacrificed themselves to kill EDG's bottom, jungle, and support.
Wang Ji, who had been silent until now, poured cold water on the IG fans who were in high spirits.
"Wait a minute, IG doesn't seem to be making as much money as I thought."
Wang Jide analyzed, "EDG took the Rift Herald, and everyone should remember that Gangplank has been farming in the bottom lane the whole time."
The director then switched the camera to the bottom lane at just the right moment.
The captain has pushed the minion wave to IG's bottom lane tower. Because EDG's mid and jungle targeted the bottom lane in the early game, IG's bottom lane tower is not at high health.
The captain used the barrels to continuously refresh the fire blades to destroy the tower, and soon forcibly destroyed the bottom lane tower.
And this tower comes with a bounty of a Blood Tower!
"While all our attention was focused on this, Flandre was quietly developing his strength, and we can see that the captain actually has a teleport."
"But he didn't teleport to the front, which was obviously planned by the EDG team. EDG used this Rift Herald team fight to buy Flandre two precious minutes of farming time!"
The director then switched the economic panels for both sides, showing the captain getting the first tower bounty.
Originally, his economy was far behind Lucian's, but now, the captain has actually caught up quite a bit.
This is the captain's charm, and also why Wang Yao has always been unwilling to go to the front lines to help the captain.
The Captain isn't the kind of hero who can coordinate with teammates, especially when the Captain has already collapsed. Going to help him will only cause you to collapse as well.
The best way to help the captain is to create an environment where he can develop.
Because the captain has a passive ability that provides extra economy, he can quickly make up for the lost economy with just a little development.
