LOL: The world’s best red-temperature mid laner!

The live stream chat was full of complaints:

[You can't even beat the enemy team with Lucian in mid lane? Do you even know how to play?]

[They said it was a trump card, and this is it?]

When I saw him pick first, I thought it was real, but it turned out he was faking it.

Trying to play this game in front of Yi Shen is wishful thinking.

The Leona is coming to mid lane, and Ezreal must be feeling uncomfortable being alone in the bot lane.

Fortunately, he's Ezreal, so he's not a problem with being able to withstand pressure.

Wang Duoduo commented, "It seems that WBG's decision to let the bot lane pick EZ was also a full consideration of the support's roaming ability, as other ADCs might not be able to hold their ground."

"After pushing the minion wave, Yi Shen went back to replenish his supplies. He chose to build armor penetration items, it seems he's going for an armor penetration build."

With seven and a half minutes remaining in the game, the brood worms are about to respawn.

Lü Yi was pushing the minion wave in the mid lane, while Xiao Tian had already gone to the vicinity of the nest insects to establish vision.

Just then, he noticed that Xiaohu's positioning was a bit off; it seemed like he was planning to launch an attack.

Lucian reached level six two minutes ago and has been very cautious. His sudden aggressiveness is likely suspicious.

Lü Yi stepped back a little, assuming that the opposing jungler was nearby.

As a result, Xiaotian and Tarzan met in the river on the top lane.

"What's going on?" Lu Yi felt confused. The jungler wasn't nearby. What was Xiaohu trying to do?
Suddenly, a possibility occurred to him.

Try to bait out their ultimate ability or summoner spell!
The brood worms are about to spawn, and Miss Fortune's ultimate is very powerful in these small-scale team fights.

If you can force Miss Fortune to use her ultimate or Flash first, making her wary, team fights will be much easier.

Lü Yi saw through Xiao Hu's thoughts, so he decided to take advantage of them!
He chose to step forward and offer some angle.

Use your E skill on a low-health ranged minion.

Sure enough, Lucian used his E skill to challenge for a fight!

Guan Zeyuan commented: "Here we go! Lucian is getting close to deal damage, and he has his ultimate. If Miss Fortune doesn't handle it well, she might be forced to use Flash, or even get a solo kill."

Lu Yi fought and retreated, while Lucian used his full combo and then his ultimate.

The female gunner immediately used Flash, flashing diagonally to retreat.

This gave Xiaohu an opportunity!
He chose to use Flash to allow his ultimate to continue dealing damage to Miss Fortune.

However, after the female gunner flashed, she immediately turned around and used her E skill followed by her ultimate.

"Ah ha ha ha ha..."

An outrageous scene unfolded: Miss Fortune and Lucian exchanged ultimate abilities!
Both of their health points dropped rapidly.

Gugu exclaimed in surprise, "They won't both die, will they? Both of them have high damage output, and they're both very fragile..."

Suddenly, Lü Yi's female gunner ended her ultimate skill and activated her W skill to accelerate her movement!
Lucian tried to adjust his projectile trajectory, but he was slowed down by Miss Fortune's E skill and couldn't keep up with her movement.

Not only that, although Miss Fortune stopped using her ultimate, her ultimate didn't end immediately and continued to damage Lucian.

Xiaohu's Lucian fell, and Lü Yi secured a solo kill!

[TES, GodYi (Bounty Hunter) has killed WBG, Xiaohu (Purgical Ranger)!!!]

Wang Duoduo analyzed, "Lucian fell for it! If Miss Fortune hadn't positioned herself, they would have ended up dying together. Lucian's ultimate missed the last few bullets."

"This is entirely a difference in micro-management; in terms of hero attributes, they are not at a disadvantage."

GuGu chimed in, "That's right, the result was quite thrilling. XiaoHu almost accomplished a feat, YiShen was killed in a one-on-one fight for the first time! It's a pity he didn't succeed."

In the official live stream room, the chat was filled with messages:

Surely no one really thinks it's just a little bit short? It's far from it.

Everything was within Yi Shen's calculations.

[Making you feel like you're missing out is actually a way to seduce you.]

[Xiao Hu must have already started celebrating; he thought he could pull off a miracle.]

The director gave Xiaohu a close-up, even though this wasn't the first time he had been solo killed by Lü Yi.

But this time it was especially painful; he almost jumped up to celebrate.

For him, even switching places with Lü Yi would be a miracle.

But the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

After Lü Yi secured a solo kill in the mid lane, he pushed the minion wave forward, then headed towards the river to eat the fruit platter.

Just then, the brood worms respawned. Awkward!

Xiaohu doesn't have TP (Teleport), and it will take him quite a while to return after reviving.

Tarzan went straight to farming jungle camps, abandoning the contest for the Broodlings.

Guan Zeyuan commented, "Xiaohu made a mistake in this play. He could have contested the Broodmother. At this point, Brand and Karthus would have been much stronger in a team fight."

"But unfortunately, the nest bugs have to be released."

The game continued, and ten minutes had passed.

Tarzan's Brand chose to head straight to the Dragon Pit, activate the Dragon, and try to steal it.

However, Xiaotian had placed a ward in advance and immediately reminded his teammates: "The enemy is attacking the dragon, let's go over."

The mid and bottom laners push the minion wave together, moving upwards.

The opposing duo has also arrived to provide support, but the mid laner is a little slower.

GuGu commented, "It feels like both sides want to engage in team fights. Both junglers are developing quite well and are farming very well. Their CS is about the same as in a solo lane."

"Brand's Flash is ready again, we can definitely fight this wave."

Xiaotian went ahead to harass Brand, using his W skill to slow him down and then trying to poke him with his Q.

Tarzan could only retreat one after another.

Both sides are testing.

Suddenly, the Japanese woman unleashed her ultimate attack!
Xiaotian had no choice but to use Flash to dodge.

EZ and Brand are right next to him; if they get caught in Leona's ultimate, they're doomed.

"The enemy Leona doesn't have her ultimate," Xiaotian reminded her.

On TES's side, Meiko pushed forward, trying to find an opportunity to initiate a team fight.

He now has Flash, so he can use Q-Flash followed by WR, giving him a chance to coordinate with his teammates to burst down Brand.

However, before he could make a move, Brand struck first, using a W followed by a Q skill.

"Move!" Meiko tried to move, but her move was anticipated!

Brand's Q skill hit Meiko squarely.

Wang Duoduo exclaimed, "What precise skills! Tarzan's Brand Shurel is really difficult to play. EZQ skill W, followed by the ultimate, and Leona is coming! They're going to engage on Riel!"

Meiko didn't expect the opponent to be so decisive, and after being left with low health, she could only flash back.

Miss Fortune and Kai'Sa couldn't find an opportunity to deal damage; the enemy's range was too long.

If Ruier doesn't enter the fray, the two carries can only watch.

However, at the same time that Riel used Flash, Brand also used his ultimate and came over with Riel!

"Go! Brand's ultimate!" Meiko told his teammates to spread out and be careful of the bouncing attack.

But it was too late. Brand's ultimate hit Riel, bounced off Karthus, and then returned to Riel, killing her!
WBG's Tarzan (Blazing Soul) has killed TES's Meiko (Iron Maiden)!!!

Wang Duoduo commented, "How can they fight this team fight? Top Esports can't even touch the opponent; they're completely suppressed."

"Brand, Ezreal, and even Lucian's ultimate abilities all have relatively long ranges, and Leona's ultimate is also safer for initiating team fights than Riven's."

Just then, Xiaohu's Lucian approached from the side and decisively used his ultimate!
He knew Karthus didn't have Flash, so Karthus was his target. Ezreal also used his E skill to attack, targeting Karthus as well.

Lü Yi decisively used his E skill to slow down Lucian and then activated his ultimate.

"a ha ha ha!"

However, Brand approached from the other side, preparing to unleash his abilities.

Lu Yi had no choice but to end his ultimate skill and reposition. The good news was that Kai'Sa's W hit Lucian, and he decisively used his ultimate skill to fly over and take down the enemy with a combo!
[TES' Jackeylove (Void Daughter) has killed WBG's Xiaohu (Lucian)!!!]

The bad news is that Brand also took down Karthus with a single WQ combo.

WBG's Tarzan (Blazing Vengeance) has killed TES's Tian (Death Singer)!!!

After Karthus dies, he activates his W to slow down the enemy, then uses his ultimate to cover his teammates' retreat.

Wang Duoduo commented, "One for two, WBG can totally accept that. Brand has three kills now, he's very fed."

"Both Kai'Sa and Miss Fortune are out of ultimate abilities, so we can't continue this team fight. We have to give up the dragon and go back to farm."

Guan Zeyuan analyzed: "As we just said, the biggest problem with Top Esports' team fights is their short range. They have to engage as soon as they see the enemy and can't let the enemy kite them, otherwise Top Esports' chances of winning are very low."

Fourteen minutes into the game, Lü Yi still had a clear advantage in the mid lane, having already taken three tower plates.

Xiaohu didn't build Blade of the Ruined King, so he doesn't have much lifesteal ability.

This means that if he gets hit by two bounce Qs from Miss Fortune, he has to go back to base, otherwise he might get solo killed.

Lü Yi was able to take the opportunity to eat the crust of the tart.

The second group of nest worms has spawned, and the TES duo is also moving up.

Lü Yi switched to the top lane, and Gnar went to the bottom lane.

TES, on the other hand, is not in a hurry, as they have three broodworms.

Even if we don't want this group, we can give them all to the other side.

Of course, whether or not to give it to the other side depends on whether you can exchange it for resources.

If the opposing team is willing to give up their turrets in order to contest the point, TES can accept that.

Wang Duoduo analyzed: "WBG is very proactive. After the duo pushed the mid lane minions, they went over to help fight the nest worms."

"A five-on-five team fight may break out between the two sides. It will be more difficult for Top Esports to engage in the team fight. Gnar is not in the front and will have to teleport over. They need to control their rage."

Before WBG had even finished off the first brood worm, TES arrived, four of them facing off.

The two sides began to pull at each other.

Meiko reminded her, "I still have a minute left before I can use Flash, it's so frustrating, it's hard to activate."

Xiao Tian replied, "Me too, let's pull it apart first."

Xiaotian walked up, used W to slow down the opponent, and used Q to force Leona back.

At the same time, he also needs to maintain his positioning, otherwise he'll be finished if he gets controlled by the Leona's ultimate.

Meiko approached from the side, looking for an opportunity to initiate a team fight; he wasn't too afraid now.

If the Leona uses her ultimate on him, he can simply turn around and use his W to negate the control effect; he can still react to that.

Suddenly, Brand used his Q skill.

"Watch out!" Xiao Tian sensed something was wrong.

But it was too late when he spoke.

After Brand used his Q, he suddenly flashed and used his E, and Riel was controlled.

"No..." Meiko was stunned. He didn't expect Fire Man to do this. By the time he saw it, it was too late to react.

The female character followed up with her ultimate, Brand also threw out his ultimate, Ezreal followed up with a set of skills, and then used his ultimate!

Lucian, Baptism of the Holy Lance!

Guan Zeyuan commented, "Both top laners used Teleport, but it seems too late. The enemy's damage is very high, and their AOE is explosive. No one dares to go up and help Rui'er."

WBG's Xiaohu (Holy Gunner) has defeated TES's Meiko (Iron Girl)!!!

Xiao Tian was instantly killed before he could even use a single skill!
"It's mine, this is mine." Meiko volunteered to take the blame.

Meanwhile, the team fight wasn't over yet. Both top laners teleported to the ground, and Skarner used his E skill to charge out of the Baron pit!

369's Gnar doesn't have much rage left, forcing the TES team to retreat.

Wang Duoduo explained, "Skarner charged at Karthus, used his Q skill to slow him down, then auto-attacked for damage. Kai'Sa and Miss Fortune followed up with damage. Skarner flashed and used his ultimate! Miss Fortune dodged out of the way!"

"Kai'Sa used her ultimate, but Karthus didn't have Flash. He was blocked by Skarner. Brand followed up with W and hit with Q. Karthus charged in and sacrificed himself."

"Hahahaha..." Lu Yi's female gunner used her ultimate skill to take down the scorpion, but Xiao Tian's Karthus also died.

[TES, GodYi (Bounty Hunter) has killed TES, Breathe (Ancient Lord)!!!]

WBG and Light (Explorer) have killed TES and Tian (Death Singer)!!!

Gugu explained:
"It's three against four now. Should Top Esports continue? Miss Fortune and Kai'Sa have both used their ultimates. Although Gnar has a good amount of rage, no one can follow up with damage after he enters the fray."

"Let's go, we can't win," Lü Yi commanded.

He's an armor-piercing build, and without his ultimate ability, his combat power is very limited.

With Kai'Sa's ultimate ability also gone, we can't continue this fight.

So WBG took down these three nest bugs.

Guan Zeyuan commented, "It's still the same problem: Top Esports' lineup has very short range. Unless you start a team fight as soon as you meet, it will be very difficult to win."

"WBG also knew this, and didn't give them any chance. They either stalled or directly restricted Top Esports' initiation points."

The game continued, and the second dragon spawned.

Xiaotian came over to defend immediately. They now have a significant advantage, as all five of them have Flash available.

On the contrary, WBG's top and jungle players didn't have Flash.

"We'll attack directly. When they come over, we'll engage them. Activate the Fire Man," Xiaotian commanded.

The TES team gathered in advance, set up vision, and started the fight.

WBG's people have also come, which is good news for TES.

However, the TES team soon discovered that WBG was faking it.

They pretended to come over to engage in team fights, but actually just let EZ use his skills from a distance, a distance that TES couldn't use to initiate a team fight.

The Brand, who didn't have Flash, hid himself and couldn't be seen at all.

So TES finished the dragon and retreated, not wasting any time.

Wang Duoduo commented, "WBG is very calm. They know this team fight is difficult to engage in, so they are just stalling for time to slow down Top Esports' dragon pace."

"This game features the Wind Dragon Soul, which is quite useful for Top Esports. Whether it's Miss Fortune, Kai'Sa, or Riven, they all really need the Wind Dragon Soul's buff."

Both sides entered the development phase, and Lü Yi switched to the bottom lane.

Right now, Miss Fortune and Lucian are just pushing the minion wave; they don't have many opportunities to fight each other.

For Lü Yi, there's nothing he can do if Xiao Hu doesn't initiate an attack; he lacks mobility, but Lucian does.

As for Xiaohu, he had already been solo-killed once, so he couldn't give him another chance and chose to play defensively.

However, the situation changed after the Rift Herald spawned.

Xiaotian went ahead to establish vision, and TES still has the advantage of Flash.

"Get ready to take the Herald. The enemy top and jungle don't have Flash, so we can fight them however we want," Xiaotian commanded.

Lu Yi reminded him, "I have TP (Teleportation Points), so I can come over anytime."

369 then said, "Wait for me to get angry, don't rush me." (End of this chapter)
