The high ground checkpoint isn't a big spot. If you try to attack the tower, the enemy monkey might just come at you at any time. In such a small area, Nami can easily unleash her ultimate, and Ryze can easily deal full damage.

Therefore, JKL's Titan could only find the opponent's mistakes.

However... although JKL can play support, his experience is completely useless in situations that require seizing opportunities.

TES couldn't find an opportunity, and BLG stubbornly defended their position. Taking Baron Nashor wasn't very reliable, so both sides were stuck in a stalemate for the time being.

"No, we have to initiate a team fight. We can't give the enemy time to let Ryze get ahead."

"I can't get in. There are too many counter-attacks. Monkey King's ultimate, Lee Sin's ultimate, Nami's ultimate. It's not easy to initiate a team fight."

"Then how about we try to create a diversionary tactic to launch a major attack?"

"Unstable, unstable."

No one could have imagined that a team that never had to worry about initiating team fights would one day be struggling because no one in the team could initiate them.

That makes sense. Although the support player who played for Roland last time wasn't good at initiating team fights, he was still a professional support, unlike JKL, who was an AD carry who transitioned halfway through his career.

Seeing his teammates struggling with their decision, Roland glanced at his own savings and immediately chose to return to base.

"Leave the team-building and stuff to me."

"Stop messing around, you're an Ezreal."

"Keep holding on here. Once I get out of the house, we can open."

"You only have one Iceborn Gauntlet and you're still using this build? Wait... wait a minute, you've been with us in small-scale team fights for so long, why are you still using this build?" These words made the other four members of TES suddenly realize something, and they all opened the team's equipment menu.

As soon as EZ returned home, he immediately chose to upgrade his equipment.

Just as JKL had thought, he had been using slows to get into team fights, and he had actually been secretly accumulating a lot of gold. This was also his bad habit when playing top lane: as long as his mana wasn't depleted after the laning phase, he would never recall.

If you have a wire, farm lanes; if you don't, farm jungle camps.

They just followed their teammates around aimlessly, getting dirty wherever they could.

So, under everyone's watchful eyes, the first thing EZ did upon returning home was to pull out a small stopwatch.

Hmm, a small stopwatch, it's alright.

Although he's still a coward, considering he said he'd initiate the team fight, he probably wanted to use Zhonya's Hourglass to bait the enemy into engaging him, so the timing of his stopwatch was quite opportune.

At this moment, the other four members of TES were already thinking about the strategy of selling boards.

The next moment, an item called "Randuin's Omen" was quietly added to Ezreal's item inventory.

The remaining four members of TES: ......

A few minutes later, when the sound of the team being wiped out rang in the ears of the BIG members, L3EST16 finally took off his headphones with a relaxed expression.

ended.

It's finally over.

He didn't want to investigate why EZ could pull out equipment worth over three thousand in just one minute, nor did he want to investigate how the opponent managed to hide his whereabouts all the way without letting them discover his item build, and he didn't want to know what was going on in the opponent's AD's head.

All he knew was that he had already lost the moment he spotted the enemy EZ in front and decisively used his ward to initiate a Dragon's Rage.

Heaven knows why the blond kid who was kicked into the crowd didn't die after taking a full combo of their attacks, and even managed to trigger a group slow and invulnerability.

From that moment on, he knew he had lost to his opponent.

He's such a great team player!

The LPL's "defense tower" truly lives up to its name.

Similarly, Roland, who pioneered a new style of AD carry in professional matches, was officially crowned a legend after this battle, giving the title of "King of the Board" a completely new meaning.

To be honest, I could actually play Ezreal myself, but I just don't have that kind of nerve.

[Don't try to blackmail him, no one can do it, the King is the twelfth defensive tower in LOL.]

Ultimately, TES couldn't escape the fate of having their AD carry initiate team fights.

Indeed, even JKL couldn't escape the fate of tanking the tower. I'm just baffled; how could a tanky Nautilus be killed by the tower?

Of course, Roland, the one who started it all, looked around at his teammates the moment the game ended, and then hugged the "most fed" AD tightly.

"Water, you must protect my safety! You know, a good support is hard to find these days. If you lose one, it's really gone."

"Actually, I think the Seer sometimes plays quite well."

"???"

Throughout the entire post-match fistfight, Roland maintained a distance of more than half a meter from all the BLG members, just exchanging blows in mid-air and that was it, he was incredibly cowardly.

Of course, this scene was also perfectly captured on the big screen, and countless viewers burst into laughter at the sight of Roland, who seemed ready to run away at any moment.

As for the post-match interview?

I stood him up.

According to the rules of the martial arts world, if you don't run after school, you're just waiting for the other side to block your way to the fountain. He's not stupid.

If you run too fast, JKL will be the one who suffers.

And that was exactly what happened. When JKL returned to the lounge, still laughing and joking, saying things like "Aban is so lame," the coach, sitting on the gaming chair with a gloomy face, immediately gave him a death sentence.

Yes... he completely forgot that he and Ah Ban had switched places without informing each other.

Seeing their coach's gloomy face, everyone understood.

They won, but not completely.

In this era where being a minute late means missing out on the latest trends, the legendary Banhuang's epic battle naturally dominated the headlines of the LOL section. While people were joking about his rock-solid performance, they were also seriously studying the feasibility of his utility item build.

In Season 10, AD carries already struggle to deal damage and are prone to dying quickly.

In the past, their understanding of AD was to pick an AD carry like Miss Fortune or Kalista who was also useful in the early game, in order to contest the elemental dragon map resources.

Now that the resource allocation for elemental dragons has slowed down slightly due to version updates, could we consider Roland's functional approach?

Whether it's a Vayne with Grasp of the Undying and Blade of the Ruined King, a full tank Kalista with Lethal Tempo and Wit's End, or a Conqueror Ezreal with a pure slow-based engage build, they are all essentially the same playstyle.

I don't know about other things, but at least the bot lane in ranked games these past few days has definitely been a battle of gods.

Roland, who had just returned to the base and received a severe scolding, escaped punishment after being promised a certain amount of training, mainly because they won the match.

In this era that increasingly values ​​results, the process isn't actually that important. It's just that, most likely, they won't be able to switch positions in the bot lane anymore.

As the saying goes, things shouldn't happen more than three times.

The same trick might be manageable at first, but if they try it again later, the opponent will definitely have figured it out completely.

After finishing their match against BLG, TES only had one day of rest before immediately facing their next opponent. There was no way around it; that's how the tournament format works. As the season progresses, the schedule for each team's matches will become increasingly packed until the schedules for each region become more consistent.

While enjoying the AD calcium milk he had bought from Taobao, Roland was also dazed and confused as he fooled the coach, though he had gotten used to the white crescent moon on his face.

As the team's commander, White Crescent always communicated privately with Roland before holding a meeting to discuss tactics. This time, they were still very enthusiastic, but when it came to the second meeting and they were talking about the same thing, it became completely pointless.

EDG, another esports powerhouse, although they had a terrible year.

How to describe EDG in S10? They actually bought back Audi while letting go of YuNan and ErTaiZi. You know, the top sponsor of LOL is Mercedes-Benz, and the most outrageous thing is that EDG in the S10 Summer Split really relied on Audi.

Due to the increased importance of top laners, coupled with the buffs to EDG's favorite utility top laners like Mordekaiser, Audi, who had been underperforming for years, finally had a rare moment of brilliance this quarter.

Then, with a version update, it fell back into the gutter.

But at least this version is still in his favor.

Since everyone can recite the personalities and characteristics of EDG's teammates with their eyes closed, we will focus on introducing EDG's "temporary" AD for this moment - BBD.

It's actually very simple.

Even if the team's two veterans are in a slump, they will still be indispensable. So, if we want to change the team's record, we can only start with other positions. We can skip the jungler position, and Audi is in great form and is the team's new star. So, we can only start with the AD carry, and Hope is also a bit injured.

The classic strategy is to temporarily bring in an AD carry from the second team for rotation. Of course, it could also be a sacrificial tactic. A few years ago, EDG successfully summoned one of the three new generation AD carries, Fizz, by sacrificing Zet. This team is also a veteran.

Just as Roland was lost in thought, Knight suddenly nudged his shoulder, startling him awake. Roland then looked at the coach with a bewildered expression.

"Stop watching. Tomorrow's match is against a rookie AD carry. It'll be a good opportunity for you to practice. You'll pick a soft support, figure out what to pick yourself. Just make sure you don't crash the lane."

???

"Coach, I feel like you're looking down on me. I, Luo, never break the lane, and I don't even know what breaking the lane means. This is an insult, an insult to my character."

"Oh, then Ah Shui, you can just play Kog'Maw or Vayne tomorrow, let's see how Ah Ban performs."

"If you want me dead, just say so. There's no need to beat around the bush." ​​What the hell is Kog'Maw and Vayne? Are these the kinds of items we can use in this version?

"How about this, Ah Shui will pick his usual pick, and you'll still pick a support champion. If you can limit Meiko's performance, that'll be considered a success, okay?"

"The bonus rules remain the same?"

"As usual."

"Anything in the soft support category is fine?"

"Correct."

"Alright, Coach, I've figured out my winning strategy!"

Since the match was scheduled for dinner time in the evening, the TES team, after waking up the next day, began their daily training as usual.

On the day of the match, clubs rarely arrange practice matches beforehand, mainly because practice matches are too energy-consuming. Usually, players are allowed to adjust their feel for the game by playing ranked matches on their own, or they simply hold meetings or practice sessions.

Roland made a rather unusual choice today: he played basketball.

With the influx of capital, the biggest change for professional players, besides higher income, is improved training conditions. Clubs with capital will even arrange fitness coaches and health retreats for their players, since professional players have been generally weak and sickly for quite some time now.

Of course, while they say they're going to play basketball, it's really just a simple backboard-hitting exercise. Given the current personnel configuration at the TES base, they can't even gather enough players to play half a court.

Holding his own basketball, Roland looked at the basket and couldn't help but sigh to his teammates, "You won't believe it, but back in the day I was a top player on the court. Even the four most feared players on the court were three points weaker than me back then."

"Huh? What are the Four Strange Things on the Court?" Kasa, who had come along with him, was stunned. At that moment, all sorts of outrageous images of "superpower basketball" flashed through his mind.

"Oh, the four oddballs on the court are the agile fat guy, the hook shot grandpa, the tall and skinny long-range shooting king, and the muscular short guy. Each of them is a top-notch player. They can block James and defend Shaq. They are always seen in every corner of the stadium."

"Hiss~ So, from what you're saying, you've played against them all?" Recalling what Roland had just said about the four monsters giving him a wide berth, Kasa carefully examined Roland's physique. He was shocked when he looked closely; only upon careful observation could he realize that this guy was indeed a standard 1.8-meter tall. It seemed that he might not be bad at basketball after all.
