Just like Nidalee, who can throw taunts from afar to trigger her passive for long-range ganks, Harper dares to ambush from such a distance because Orianna can also provide him with support from a great distance. Viktor, on the other hand, cannot do this; before evolving, Viktor's three skill sets are too weak.

As Orianna's W skill dealt damage, it not only increased Fryegor's movement speed but also reduced the enemy Nidalee's movement speed. According to a commentator's theory of relativity, this W skill was equivalent to applying two layers of crowd control to the enemy Nidalee at the same time. Jiejie had just jumped out to create distance when he was easily caught up by the Blade of the Ruined King with increased movement speed. Without the initial distance to create distance, how could a pseudo-mage assassin possibly beat a pseudo-warrior in the early game?

With the final auto-attack from the Ruined King, Jiejie didn't even have time to figure out what was happening before he fell to the hands of TES's mid and jungle duo.

First Blood!

First blood secured.

"Holy crap! Ahaha is so handsome."

"666666, this wave of Sparrow Crickets, quick, there's also a Victor."

"Don't worry, he'll have to give something up." After getting the first kill, Harvey didn't stop. He picked up Nidalee's soul, and after a brief channeling, a brand new Nidalee appeared in front of Clockwork and Viktor. Then, he threw a spear at Viktor's knee.

Viktor: Why are you wearing my teammate's clothes and using her skills?

Ruined King: Since we're after excitement, let's go all the way!

Victor: Hello ()

"Whoosh!~"

Flash away.

Unless Scout is completely out of his mind, he won't take Nidalee's (fake) Q at this moment. If the jungler is doomed, so be it; dying once isn't something you can't recover from. But if Viktor dies early in the mid lane, then it's truly a disaster.

The current Viktor is the latest version, which requires last-hitting minions/assists/kills to gain shards to upgrade his skills. At first glance, it seems like dying in the early game isn't a big deal, but if you actually play him, you'll find that the upgrade time for Viktor's first skill has actually been quietly postponed.

Because there aren't many small-scale team fights in the early game where Viktor can fight, and even if there are, Viktor's damage in the early game without upgraded equipment is mostly a burden. It would normally take him around 12 minutes to reach 100 CS, because it's not easy for him to last hit before upgrading.

If you can't get 1300 on your first home run, this guy's early game rhythm will immediately fall apart.

Old Victor is much better.

While 1150 is hard to accumulate, it's relatively easy to get it around level 7 even if you don't die. Once you do, you can immediately start farming with Viktor, which makes a huge difference.

A proactive ambush not only disrupted Nidalee's jungle clearing rhythm but also forced the enemy mid laner to use Flash. With neither mid laner able to use Flash, the jungle is now slowly shifting from Nidalee's rhythm to Foygo's rhythm.

【666666】

So, the Second Prince really does go all out.

[We've gotten used to it. When EDG acquired Flandre, we had high hopes for them, but those hopes were already dashed.]

This year's EDG...sigh.

Despite acquiring Flandre to strengthen their roster for the S11 Spring Split, EDG maintained a very unhealthy performance throughout the entire season. Their mid and support players took turns malfunctioning, their jungler was inconsistent, their top laner was a lone wolf, and their bot lane couldn't carry despite assistance.

Really.

The transformation of the original World S11 EDG only truly came about after defeating the ticket seller WE in the double-elimination format.

Since then, EDG has started to focus on fighting around the top lane, the mid and support players have gradually stabilized, and the bot lane has been able to occasionally step up and carry. As for the jungler, their jungler is a player who develops over time, which is completely different from buying and using them immediately, so he is not included in the above list.

At least for now... EDG's dominance isn't as strong as TES imagined.

"That's a bit strange. It seems like they're having an excessively smooth start?"

"It's not surprising. If all that extra practice and research doesn't work, then the other team is the real monster." Haro's level of attention to EDG is unprecedented since joining TES. But putting himself in EDG's shoes, would they be this cautious in dealing with Haro? Roland thinks they probably won't. Because Haro had already played against RW and EDG for three years, they already thought they had figured out Haro's style, and that's the key reason they're at a disadvantage.

Of course, Roland would not be careless because of this.

Ultimately, EDG's roster is what it is, and who knows what strange synergies might suddenly trigger and cause them to unleash their full potential? This kind of chemical reaction has happened before in the LPL.

Just like a gas cylinder, which everyone is already very familiar with.

Everyone is already very familiar with tow trucks.

But nobody is familiar with the combination of gas cylinders and trailers to form a new type of mortar with considerable combat power on the Middle East battlefield, right?

Years ago, when some newcomers took over their fathers' gas cylinder business, the market was very sluggish. They could even lose two cents on a single gas cylinder. Coincidentally, the energy transition was underway, and the gas cylinder market was shrinking. Through various efforts, some resourceful individuals successfully revitalized their businesses and transformed into successful entrepreneurs—by developing new markets in the Middle East (humorous).

After gaining an early advantage, what Harper had to do was quite simple.

Intrusion—Capture—Intrusion Again—Capture Again

There's absolutely no need to worry about the top lane, because before going to the ticket seller WE to complete the third awakening mission, EDG never cares about the fate of their own top laner; they just let them play by themselves.

What they need to do now is very simple: forcefully shut down EDG's two carries.

"Here, here, and here. Based on my years of experience as a sixth man, the enemy Nidalee will most likely use these spots to jump over the wall," Roland said, pointing to a few points on the minimap.

"How do you know that? Do you think you have X-ray vision?"

"So what if I have X-ray vision? I can easily snipe a bunch of cheaters using speed hacks. Do you think I'm joking?"

"Rely on reaction?"

"That's definitely not it... I rely on time stop."

"???"

I still remember when I used to play CF (Crossfire). Because I was poor, my computer was so bad that it could see through the map (it wouldn't load), but I still played the game like a monster! You might think it was because I had fast reflexes, but no, it was because I could watch the opposing players with speed hacks walk towards me in slow motion.

As the saying goes, the slower the computer, the more reckless the shooting.

It was his years of experience playing shooting games and his expertise in gun-clipping techniques that allowed him to master hiding spots in various wilderness areas, alleys, boxes, and corners. Summoner's Rift? To him, it was just a map that had been put up.

What he had to do was coordinate with Harvey to pin down the enemy Nidalee's position, and then... take her down!

Summary: Chapter 104: He who obtains the Sixth Prince obtains the world!

In professional esports, League of Legends is actually a turn-based game.

After Haro gained an advantage in the mid lane, as a jungler in the Dragon Soul meta, level four Foygo naturally prioritized the elemental dragon. This extra time gave Jiejie the opportunity to gank.

The resurrected Nidalee had an extremely clear strategy and immediately engaged.

Although EDG's top lane has always been an isolated lane in the Spring Split, it's because they have nowhere else to go. At this point, the top lane is the place where they have the best chance to gain an advantage. Under Flandre's skillful acting, Ale was successfully tricked and got carried away. He was then forced to use Flash and Teleport under Nidalee's gank, and used both summoner spells.

"So you really went to gank top lane?"

"Definitely. With the lane pushed back and you taking the dragon, unless Ale is hiding in the bushes and AFK, ganking top is definitely the best option." Roland glanced at the Nidalee's figure that had just left the top lane and sighed in agreement.

Is there any chance in the bottom lane?

"You can give it a try."

Against hook-type heroes, it's useless even if the enemy knows the jungler is nearby, because the hook's range is much greater than the distance for last-hitting minions. Pushing forward can even prevent the enemy from getting any experience.

Either you don't need to gain experience, or you risk getting hooked and come here to get some soup.

EDG's bot lane duo, Viper and former LPL's top support Meiko, were naturally confident in their positioning. Relying on their relatively safe position not far from the tower, they didn't retreat in time but continued to be greedy.

That's not surprising.

Players who retreat at the slightest sign of trouble are called "steady" to put it nicely, but "cowardly" to put it bluntly. Top-tier AD carries almost never play like that, refusing to gain any experience from start to finish. On the contrary, we often see this kind of blue-collar top laner.

Since you're not leaving, don't blame me for coming in.

"Dog, do you think I can hook the other guy?"

"Difficult, Titan can control and offset it."

"Oh ho? You actually guessed my intention. But you underestimate me. Do you know that there's a principle behind how the hook turns? By rapidly shaking the chain at the moment of starting the sprint, you can give the hook an acceleration and make it turn."

"Could it be..."

"You better watch out, okay!"

Press forward, throw the lantern backward, and suddenly stop at high speed!

As Meiko approached the enemy's cannon, a faint sense of threat also arose in her mind.

A feint attack?

"He's trying to hook me, but I'd better retreat first."

"it is good."

As one of the LPL's top Thresh players, Meiko knows exactly what this Thresh move means. But he wasn't in a hurry. The moment Thresh's chain swayed and the hook animation came out, Tristana used her W and Nautilus used his Q towards his own turret, both using their escape skills to prepare for their escape.

However...

Just as Fryegor arrived on his lantern, Thresh's hook was not thrown from his hand. Instead, with a flash of light, Thresh appeared not far from where Tristana had jumped.

and many more!

A feint?

Then, come back to me!

E [Misfortune Pendulum] successfully interrupted the mid-air cannon by pulling it backwards to the extreme!

I predicted that you predicted my prediction.

As the saying goes, it's not easy to hook an enemy in their normal state, but it's so easy to keep a Tristana in her take-off state. Fake hook, real hook, who can keep someone in place? It's because Tristana's W has such a low priority. In professional matches, Thresh's E interrupting Tristana's W is already a basic move.

"Good heavens, so all this time, the hook you were talking about that could turn was yourself?"

"Nonsense, if the hook could really bend, who would be turning in their grave? But it's not bad now. Even though we're without Newton, we can still learn from his brother, the awesome teacher."

As the saying goes, all's fair in war.

The ultimate goal is to keep people here; under this premise, the method used is not important at all.

E pulls down to connect Q for continued control.

Thresh's classic W-Flash-EQ combo successfully maximized his control chain. Combined with Draven's Axe of the Fallen, the hooked Tristana barely had a chance to use Flash before she was killed on the spot.

TES_JKL kills EDG_Viper

With the jungler and support politely declining, Draven ultimately secured the kill, passively taking it by surprise.

【666666】

[The champion support player is still awesome, he's a master of Ctrl+3.]

[You could say he made a skillful play, but the play itself was pretty standard and anyone could do it; but you could also say he didn't, because I've rarely seen other players use this kind of move, it's quite absurd.]

With this kill in hand, Draven is set to take off.

Honestly, if Tristana hadn't used her W and instead walked back to the tower, and if Viper had been brave enough to walk straight back, Roland would have had a 99% chance of missing his hook.

Because he likes to predict, or rather, he especially likes to guess the positions of those who like to move or dodge skills, he is considered an old FPS player. The characteristic of this type of player is that their dynamic vision is perfect, but their static skills are simply terrible. They can accurately headshot a black dot from a long distance, but they can't even see an enemy standing in front of them for a long time.
