Rebirth is fine, but I get eight hundred dollars right from the start?

While the commentator was still analyzing the possibility of keeping the player in the game, Lin Shu in the game was already too lazy to wait.

The moment he pulled the mouse out of the view and saw the North American duo emerge from the river bushes, his fingers started moving.

"Look at the ad, look at the ad!"

There was no "three, two, one" rule, and there was no preparation time.

Opportunities are fleeting.

The Gragas, who was originally heading towards the blue buff area, suddenly turned around, and then the movement animation of his E skill, Bomber Impact, lit up. However, he did not crash into any of the nearest targets in front of him, but instead pressed the R key while charging.

[Exploding barrel!]

The enormous wooden barrel was tossed from Gragas's hands, arcing through the air before landing precisely at Ezreal and Janna's feet, slightly behind them.

boom!

The purplish-red liquid spread across the canyon floor, and the massive shockwave hurled both heroes toward the barrels. Doublelift failed to activate Arcane Shift, and Janna, instinctively protecting the AD carry, missed the best opportunity to Flash away from the skill.

The two people were as if they had been forcibly pulled from the left side of the river to the face of the wine barrel by an invisible hand.

"They blew it up!" Doll's voice instantly rose. "Gragas' ultimate blew the bot lane duo back—both of them!!"

"Blisters, blisters, catch the blisters!"

"Nice, XiaoXiao didn't use his ultimate this time, but all his skills missed!"

"One Q two, the entire NA duo was knocked away."

In-game.

Mingkai's awareness was at its peak.

The instant the blue team's duo was knocked up, his Lee Sin was already beside the Gragas. Just as Ezreal and Janna landed and were knocked up by the water bubble, Lee Sin used his W ability, Golden Bell, to reach the Gragas and close the distance—

The animation for the ultimate move, Dragon Tail Sweep, lights up, and a sweeping kick lands on EZ. As a result, the two who had just landed from their bubble state are knocked up again. EZ also happens to collide with Janna, who has just landed, and the two are kicked together, flying into the air as if they were connected by an invisible rope.

Gragas's ultimate and Lee Sin's ultimate, the two ultimates directly reduced the health of two squishy heroes by more than half.

But the real killing blow came where they landed—Lin Shu had already pressed the Q key the instant they were blown away.

The rolling wine barrel landed precisely where the two senior brothers had landed.

boom!

Predict the landing point.

In that split second, EZ and Janna were knocked back and their entire movement was restricted by the control chain, and they landed right in the blast radius of the exploding barrel.

"The smile is yours now!"

After his teammates finished their initial damage output, the remaining cleanup work naturally fell to WeiXiao.

Vayne followed up with a basic attack, then a second, then a third—the true damage from the explosion of her three-ring passive completely wiped out Janna's remaining health.

Next up is the senior disciple who foolishly tried to escape using E followed by Flash...

LPL's Weixiao has killed LCS.NA's Xpecial!

LPL's Weixiao has killed LCS.NA's Doublelift!

"—Done!!" Miller's voice rang out almost simultaneously with the kill notification. "Janna is the first to fall! Ezreal! Ezreal can't escape either!"

"Whoa! The NA team tried to steal a chicken but lost their rice instead, and ended up giving away the lives of the duo."

"Gragas, his ultimate ability worked!!"

"Emperor!!! He's too strong. He used his E skill mid-fight and initiated a perfect team fight."

Two kill notifications lit up side-by-side in the center of the screen, two assist coins popped up above Gragas's head, and Vayne also earned a full 600 gold.

Only the North American centaurs and foxes remained in the distance in the river. The two stood frozen in place, unsure whether to advance or retreat, their gazes fixed on the two corpses of their teammates, like actors whose scripts had been removed.

The cheers inside the stadium need no further description.

The live stream chat was so flooded with comments that the screen was almost completely obscured.

[Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Gragas' ultimate knocks up two enemies! Lee Sin's ultimate followed by a knock-up! Predicted Q landing point!!]

[This was a full control chain with three skills; EZ was basically kicked around like a ball the whole time!]

[Senior Brother: Family, I've changed my name. My new ID is "Jifei"!]

I could watch Gragas's play ten times over!

[Wuhu, you're out of there. After this dragon fight, North America is really finished. Their mentality is probably all about to collapse.]

[Smiling face: Jungler, why aren't you coming to bot lane...? What are you slurping for? If someone's automatically feeding kills to the enemy during team fights, then it's fine.]

[Smile: I've never felt so good while raiding!]

[E God truly lives up to his name; even during the World Championship, he doesn't forget to showcase his new skills.]

[The character of the esports school principal is perfectly crafted.]

After the dragon team fight, the North American (NA) teams have indeed gone far away.

Not to mention the 180 gold bonus from Xiaolong, the only relatively even bot lane was wiped out in that last wave, allowing Vayne to get two kills for nothing. The already precarious situation collapsed instantly.

Let's start with getting on the road.

Due to the NA team's nerdy decision, the mid and jungle players went to the bottom half of the jungle to steal jungle camps, leaving the Renekton unattended.

With no worries about his back, Zhang Hai unleashed his full power and once again secured a solo kill in his lane.

With the crocodile dead, the top lane tower is no longer able to defend itself.

When the clock struck eight, the turret's last bit of health was easily taken down by Jayce's basic attack.

With a significant advantage in the top lane, after pushing down the turret, Jayce didn't just stay in lane; every time he finished pushing the lane, he would go into the jungle with Clearlove to cause trouble.

Then the three brothers from the blue team, Ueno and Nakano, fell into an extremely painful state.

Not only do you need to be wary of a Lee Sin living in the jungle, but there's also the possibility of a powerful cannon shot coming at you from any angle at any time.

If you manage to eat it, your health bar will be reduced by two bars; if you don't, it can still give you a scare.

The bottom laner, Smiling, needs no further explanation.

His individual laning ability is already much stronger than that of the senior brother. In the last team fight, he also gained kills and gold. With Bilgewater Cutlass and attack speed boots in hand, as long as he has Nami's buff, he will roll forward and unleash a barrage of attacks.

As for the mid lane, which was at a disadvantage from the start?

North American players: Do we have a mid lane?

With the Holy Grail Shoes on his body, Lin Shu's wine barrels have transformed into bombing masters.

One bucket after another rained down on the fox's head, as if a lock had been opened.

Contrary to outsiders' expectations of a constant stream of solo kills, Lin Shu, whose playstyle appears fierce, doesn't actually pursue kills at all.

Use Q to harass, and unleash your ultimate as soon as it's off cooldown to whittle down your health.

Once you have about a third of your health left, immediately cross the minion wave and activate Conqueror's Haki.

Are you coming or not?

If you don't leave, you'll be doomed when the next wave of skills comes back.

go?

Fine, then you can forget about taking your minions and the jungle monsters around the first tower.

It was precisely because of Lin Shu's unique style of subduing the enemy without fighting that, as the game progressed into the middle, the title of the most miserable person on the blue side actually fell to Renma.

His level is almost the same as the two supports, and his jungle clear count is a pitiful sixty-something.

Thus, in just seventeen minutes, the economic gap between the two sides had widened to a staggering eight thousand.

In the All-Star Game in Shanghai, the host nation's first match, a crushing victory is already a foregone conclusion.

(I accidentally wrote a bit too much about the match, but don't worry, I'll stop here. The second game of the first match and the semi-finals will be mentioned in a more lenient way, and the focus will be on the operational arrangements during the All-Star period.)
