You actually want me to...

Since they've told us to arrest them, then we'll arrest them.

Because Roland abandoned his AD carry and came to support alone, his Leona arrived at the battlefield much earlier. Both junglers arrived almost immediately, but one went to his own top jungle, while the other followed Roland's instructions and went to the mid lane.

Due to the sensitivity of the timing, there were actually no suitable ganking opportunities in the mid lane at this point.

Can...

Just as Olaf arrived, Knight suddenly and decisively walked to Olaf's side and unleashed his ultimate ability towards the enemy's upper jungle.

With the R [Mirror Warp] skill aura activated, it seemed the mid and jungle duo were about to quickly leave the mid lane.

Fruit Bro: ? ? ?

"Wei, they seem to have spotted your location and have used their ultimate ability in the mid lane."

"Be careful, they're probably here to arrest me. But it's okay, Ryze's ultimate at level one will only get him to F6 at most, I can escape."

"Row."

Adhering to the principle of being cautious, Wei's Volibear moved a little closer to the top lane to prevent himself from being ganked by three enemies in the enemy jungle. On the other side, Guozi, who had confirmed that the skill was about to take effect and that Ryze could not leave the teleportation circle, also relaxed his vigilance slightly and took a few steps forward to push the lane.

Just as the two junglers were about to be teleported away, a shout from the team voice chat made Haro subconsciously activate his ultimate ability.

R [Ragnarok]

The final move activated Olaf's ultimate ability, granting him six seconds of immunity to all crowd control effects. When Ryze's teleportation circle ended, Guozi suddenly realized that... an Olaf with his ultimate activated was staring intently at him.

Fruit Bro: ? ? ?

"Holy crap, are these guys crazy???"

Just as Guozige realized something was wrong and was about to run away, Olaf's axe arrived beside him first, and the 37% slow effect of Q [Reverse Throw] immediately took effect.

no way.

"Whoosh~" It appeared instantly.

With the vanguard team right in front of him, Guozige had no choice but to painfully use his Flash in order to conserve his health.

However...

Just after he landed with a flash, a similar flash of light appeared on the wall next to his house. It turned out that the Sun Maiden, who had disappeared before, had somehow gotten close to him.

E [Zenith Blade]

Q【Shield of Dawn】

Two simple crowd control abilities, then just wait for your jungler to chase you down and smash the enemy's head. See... that's what ganking is all about—simple, unpretentious, and boring. It only requires a little bit of surprise.

Faced with Olaf's immune control, Guozige had no room to maneuver.

[TES_Haro kills RNG_Cryin]

With one flash and two ultimate abilities, TES successfully took the initiative at the first opportunity, eliminating RNG's lineup and regaining control.

【666666】

[I've learned this wrong! I've learned this wrong! You can actually play like this?!]

The most outrageous thing is that Volibear was actually fooled by them. Ryze teleported over, and they even threw an extra set of F6.

[Man, F6, Vanguard, I want them all.jpg]

It's not that we weren't mentally prepared for TES's unconventional tactics, but RNG has never seen a game played like this before. Using two ultimate abilities to deceive a newbie like Cryin, can you guys be human?

"Should we continue fighting, Vanguard?"

"Let's fight. Olaf has no ultimate, and Leona has tanked the tower. We might not be able to lose in a 4v4."

"But their Ezreal just disappeared from the map too."

"Oh, this..."

This is what frustrates RNG the most. If it really comes down to a fight, they can beat them. When it comes to a battle of skill, who's afraid of whom?

But what TES did after ganking the mid lane was ridiculous.

Not only did EZ disappear from the bot lane, but Olaf also helped to whittle down the entire mid lane minion wave after killing someone, and then fed it all to Leona, essentially feeding her "magic candy" right in front of her.

The so-called routine requires careful consideration of all the details before and after its use.

If it's just about killing the mid laner, it's not really worth it to use so many ultimates and health, because even in a 4v4 situation in the early game, RNG has more damage dealers than TES. Both Renekton and Volibear have considerable burst damage in the early game, not to mention they lack the crucial Ragnarok.

However, TES's current approach has put RNG in a difficult position.

First, you don't know when Leona will suddenly reach level 6, and second, you're not sure if the enemy Ezreal has even come up yet. If both of these conditions are met at the same time, the worst-case scenario is that while they are fighting 4v5, the enemy also has an unstoppable Leona ultimate. In that case, how can they even fight Gil?

After calming down, RNG opted for the safest approach.

Let.

Then let the jungler and support apply pressure in the mid lane.

"Hmm? Aren't they planning to compete with us for it?"

"That must be it. Ah Shui made a wasted trip to the middle route."

"It's alright. EZ is definitely going to come here this time. After you take the Rift Herald, you guys go straight to mid. I'll go to top lane to protect Ale first. I feel like the enemy might try to sneak up on us."

"alright."

Sure enough, after EZ appeared in the mid lane, the enemy support Nautilus quietly moved towards the top lane. Normally, Ale should be least wary at this time, because his teammates had just won an initiation near the mid lane, and the success rate of a gank was very high.

only...

As Titan lumbered into the top of the bushes, a handsome, glittering young man was already waiting there.

In exchange for three Command Seals:

I grant you the opportunity to listen to my voice!

I grant you the honor of speaking with me!

I will forgive your rudeness in meeting me!

And do not confuse me with those mortal heroic spirits. I, the king, need no class. I am the king who stands in the absolute and the beginning. The hero-king among heroes—Gilgamesh (female).

Xiaoming: ? ? ?

Contending for Supremacy: Chapter Thirteen: What is Perspective?

"Aban's counter-gank perfectly saw through Xiaoming's intentions."

"That's his playing style. He can often anticipate and appear there before anyone expects it. It's that amazing." The Haier Brothers in the commentary booth couldn't help but sigh as they watched this scene, leaving only the rascal on the side at a loss.

From the start of the game until now, RNG's moves have almost been following TES's script. Anyone with eyes can see that their playstyle has met its match, just like when TES faced EDG before.

But... there's nothing we can do, RNG only has this one set of tactics.

Moreover, Roland really knows a lot about preventing ganks in the top lane.

A few years ago, when top laners were still considered the three god-tier tanks, there weren't so many underhanded ganking techniques. Junglers were very straightforward. If a gank at level three failed, they would wait until level six. If a top laner was solo-killed before level six, they would be kicked off their gank list and left to fend for themselves.

Ever since TheShy's godlike performance in S8, the top lane has gradually become a place no human can stay.

Let's not even mention the various long-range AD carries and long-range mages.

The so-called "top lane training package" developed by a group of junglers is enough to give current top laners a hard time, because there are two people in the bottom lane. A successful gank in the bottom lane will definitely be very rewarding, but because there are multiple people in the bottom lane, vision is relatively complete, making it difficult to make a move.

But things are different on the road.

God knows how many content creators and streamers have been teaching about lane dynamics, maneuvering, hero counters, and hero power spikes in the past two years. As a result, many junglers have become intimately familiar with when to engage and annoy the enemy top laner after watching countless videos.

So much so that even when Roland plays support, he unconsciously puts himself in the top lane position and thinks accordingly.

What would happen if I got arrested right now?

I will send it!

Then I'll immediately go and ambush her. If I succeed, it's my brilliant play; if I lose, it's just a waste of some of my development time. Anyway, I'm playing Leona, a teamfight initiator who can't withstand damage, so losing a level or two isn't a big deal.

Slack off, utterly and completely slack off.

As the saying goes, the three essential elements of support are: first, try not to die; second, don't be afraid to die; and third, understand when it's okay to die.

As for the others, including KDA?

That's not something support players are qualified to consider.

The Titan was blocked by Leona, while Ale could continue to chase and output damage to Xiaohu. There is really no way to deal with a champion like Renekton in the top lane against Tristana, because not only does he have a dash, but he also has a "Push Stick". Moreover, now that he has already changed to Cleanse through Unsealed Spellbook, he has triple insurance, which is really ridiculous.

Do you like a Yordle who wields a Black King Bar and kicks Lewis to become Wendy? Xiaohu just wants to say that he really cursed and ran into such an unlucky guy in lane.

If TES takes the Rift Herald, then RNG will have to go for the first Elemental Dragon.

Although it took almost ten minutes to take down the first elemental dragon, which was too late, it's better than nothing. That's human nature. It's like how everyone knows they're unlucky on Sunday nights, but they still obediently go to collect the +2/+5/+10 experience from the treasure chest. It's all about participation.

With the Vanguard in hand, Roland directed his teammates to first take down the top outer tower, which was about to be destroyed, and then rotate to the middle to protect the Vanguard and charge in once before returning to base to upgrade their equipment.

Regardless of the version, the outer tower position is crucial.

Why is the Herald a higher priority for TES in this game?

Because their carry is EZ.

EZ is a mid-game AD carry with extremely strong poke ability. EZ's best stage is when the enemy is holed up under their tower to defend. Considering this, it is very necessary to destroy the enemy's outer and mid towers.

Only by controlling vision in the enemy jungle and shrinking the encirclement can EZ have the best output space.

They definitely can't take down this tower head-on, but the Vanguard can.

Once the two vanguards break through, they can easily take down one of the outer towers in the middle lane, and then use their vision advantage to spread to all three lanes, creating a situation where they can close the door and attack the tiger.

People might not believe it if I told them.

In scrims with teams from other regions, the point that TES learned and understood the fastest was the importance of strict and disciplined macro play. Even if they didn't do anything, the opposing team would inexplicably start making mistakes and then collapse.

This truly exemplifies the principle of responding to all changes by remaining unchanged.

"Prepare for the second vanguard team. If we win that team fight, this game will be over. Everyone get ready."

"Wuhu, by the way, I heard that all the people from our training matches will be coming to watch today's game? Do you think they might reveal something they shouldn't?"

"Don't worry, the only one that's shown anything to people is C9, and they've already made a deal with it."
