You actually want me to...

Sure enough, when Da Congming, who was carefully accumulating experience points behind the tower and ready to yo-yo at any moment, saw two explosion effects appear on his outer defensive tower, he was completely dumbfounded.

What the hell?

Double explosion?

Please, you two, have some humanity!

Even more outrageous, Haro heard the news and came to the bottom lane, and the three of them pushed the tower together.

"That makes sense. With two bombs, how could FPX dare to leave their AD carry to defend the bottom tower alone?"

Off the field, watching FPX's decision to abandon Tristana and have their support go to the top jungle to help secure the Rift Herald was incredibly frustrating.

Double explosion!

You dare to leave the AD carry alone in the bot lane even with two demolition attempts?

How big is your heart?!

"It's simple, because FPX had no idea that the opponent had selected two demolition options."

"How is this possible? Wait a minute! The minion wave in the bottom lane hasn't actually entered the enemy's turret before!?"

I thought back to the laning phase before level 6 in the bottom lane.

Aside from the TES bot lane duo being a bit aggressive at level 1, they almost always controlled the lane in the mid lane, or simply let the opponent push the lane. They really almost never managed to push the lane to the opponent's turret, so naturally they didn't trigger the Demolish talent tree.

Is this how you conceal your killer move?

MD!

No wonder they managed to fight their way out of the loser's bracket; those who play tactics are truly cunning.

After a round of resource exchanges, FPX got the Herald but didn't release it, resulting in zero benefit, and they also used four of their own key players.

Looking at the opposing team, the jungler, support, and bot laner had completely destroyed the tower plates with their double demolition. By the time the group left, FPX's bot lane outer turret was barely holding on with only a little over one bar of health left.

This amount of health.

If you don't come down, the next wave of minions can push the lane away directly. Taking the vanguard and then losing the first tower instead, people will laugh at you if word gets out.

With no other option, Si Shao had to return to the bottom lane.

After all that, the most noticeable data for the audience – the economic difference – reveals that the economic gap between the two sides has hardly widened at all; they have always been neck and neck, only appearing to be at a significant disadvantage on the surface.

[Having acquired all map resources, why hasn't the economic gap widened?]

[No, top lane Jax is 0/2, why does Jayce seem a bit hesitant?]

[The bottom lane's first turret is almost taken down by Banhuang and JKL, and Rui'er's roaming has been fruitless.]

[Why is the mid laner so rooted to the spot? Move a little, hey!]

Never before has there been such a start, and never before has TES played with such composure.

Since Roland switched to AD carry and JKL switched to support, the entire TES team instantly transformed from a chaotic team that dominated early-game fighting into a team that excelled at resource trading and macro play, leaving the audience completely stunned.

Good guy.

So this is the correct way to use TES?

If you want to fight, then play like a normal team; if you want to play strategically, then swap the bottom lane. What kind of weird esports switch is this?

"You probably completely baffled the other side. How did you come up with this strategy?"

"What else can we think? Nightmare is flying at us, what can we do about it?"

"No."

"That's settled then. Before he gets Zhonya's Hourglass or tank items, I'm going to die if he wants to. So what's the point of taking damage talents in the early game? We'll just have to be as annoying as possible. Anyway, the damage from the talents is less than a few stacks of passive in the late game, so why bother with them?"

That's the advantage of a multi-core lineup.

I don't need to put all the damage items into the carry's tree like a normal team composition. How much AP and movement speed do the Relentless Hunter and Eyeball Collection runes in a normal Veigar rune tree actually give?

That thing.

Wouldn't explosions and skeletons be more appealing?

Obviously not.

To this day, Roland still remembers how ruthless those Veigar players he encountered in ARAM would switch to a full tank build with only one or two damage items.

Confrontation: Chapter 69: You didn't expect this, did you? This is actually my strategy for starting a team fight, JOJO!

"Hmm? Something feels off."

"How so?" Upon hearing the colonel's question, Ji Xiang promptly joined in the conversation.

"How many minutes has it been since you heard the TES bot lane duo causing trouble?"

"Hiss~ It seems like... it's been about six or seven minutes, right?"

The two of them discussed it and realized that something was wrong!

In past matches, TES's jungler might not have been able to create much of a tempo, but at least their support would play all sorts of crazy things, ganking across two lanes was commonplace, and they could easily come up with one annoying skill after another.

But now... what did they see?

Senna and Veigar focused on farming and leveling up, completely ignoring the top jungle. Senna would occasionally use her ultimate to get an assist, but otherwise, there was practically no sound from the bottom lane.

As a result, TES's disadvantage has been persistent. They were constantly pressured in the upper half of the map and never managed to lift their heads. But strangely enough, despite this, FPX never managed to extend their economic advantage to more than 4000, even though they controlled all the map resources.

It seems the director had an idea.

The camera then switched to the familiar player economy list, which popped up again in front of everyone watching the live stream. He even thoughtfully gave two small shots of Senna and Veigar's passive abilities, zooming in, zooming in, and zooming in again.

Nearly 20 minutes

Senna: 1900 gold in her pocket, 49 stacks of Soul.

Xiaofa: 2900 gold in his pocket, 151 stacks of passive.

Two sets of data nearly blinded the viewers and commentators in the live stream.

WTF!?

Are you two born under the Lü Meng family?

How can you hide it like that?

It has to be said that when the roles of AD and support were switched and their roles changed, a rebellious mentality called "hoarding rat" immediately emerged in Roland and JKL's hearts. To put it bluntly, it was about playing it safe and not being reckless; to put it more sophisticatedly, it was about wanting to play dumb to outmaneuver the enemy.

This mindset is very simple.

Like a large number of players, they always like to build infrastructure in disaster games and cause disasters in infrastructure games; they like to engage in pornography in serious games and seek to achieve virginity in pornographic games; they even go so far as to look for plots in pornographic websites and then look for less serious passages in serious novel websites. This is the excellent, bad, and rebellious nature of Chinese players.

Hey, I'm just having fun.

The two, who usually act recklessly and try to stand out, would occasionally get a taste of success by playing it safe and developing their character. They would even immerse themselves in it, while simultaneously directing their teammates on how to play and how to minimize losses while maximizing attention, all while secretly using vision control to roam the other side of the jungle and minion waves, seeking to develop their own character.

Xiao Tian is acting strangely.

Even though they had suppressed the enemy jungler's living space to such an extent, their own jungle monsters were still being invaded by the enemy from time to time. Helpless, Xiaotian could only sigh that new talents emerge in every generation, but the old guard is still the old guard. Ha Huang is really ruthless.

Then they continued to intensify the persecution.

"They should have noticed our movements by now, they're almost ready to win, right?"

"Hmm, even though we've been trying very hard to stall, we still want them to reach the point of having a winning hand within 20 minutes. Should we play or stall?"

"Let's fight. Dragging it out to the Dragon Soul team would only create more unnecessary variables. The damage output should be enough. Ah Le, you've worked hard."

"It's not hard work; these are necessary sacrifices."

Why did Roland dare to let the upper half of the bracket get dominated like this?

Because they were already leading 2-0, even if the three players in the upper half of the bracket couldn't hold on and collapsed, the players' mentality wouldn't collapse. Fighting with their backs against the wall can certainly boost the players' willpower and morale to the maximum extent, but for a protracted battle, having confidence in their situation is the key to stabilizing the situation.

Return to town and upgrade your equipment.

Little Fa: Everfrost + Ice Heart + Cooldown Reduction Boots

Senna: Siren + Boots + Support Item + Control Ward

The luxurious equipment worn by the two lower-ranking support members dazzled everyone on the spot.

"Holy crap!? How do you have so much money?" Knight couldn't take it anymore the moment he saw Veigar's equipment. Damn it, he fought tooth and nail in the top lane and already has one and a half items, while you're just farming safely in the bottom lane and you already have two? Is this even in the river?

"It was just stealing some resources from the jungle, no big deal."

"A second Ice Heart? Won't that reduce the damage output a bit?"

"With Ice Heart, at least I can still deal damage. Without the Ice Heart three-piece set, I'll just die instantly. Don't worry, my damage output is already enough."

With 150+ stacks of passive ability providing the same amount of ability power, plus the 70 ability power from Everfrost and the bonus from talents, Veigar's nearly 260 ability power is enough to deal enough damage in a 20-minute dragon fight. What's more, they have a four-core lineup, and even the only non-core Lee Sin still hasn't escaped his power spike around 20 minutes.

This is a good move!

"Little Dragon, get ready. I'll hide for a bit and see if I can ambush the enemy Nightmare."

"Huh? Is this okay?"

"Don't be nervous. Although they did ignite a so-called flame of struggle because they were backed by a cliff, that flame is too small now, so small that Boruto could extinguish it. We just need to remember not to throw in episode 65. If we accidentally throw in episode 65, their engine might explode."

"???"

Seeing his teammates' bewildered expressions, Roland didn't say much. Instead, he quietly followed behind them, maintaining a slight distance, positioned precisely where the fog of war obscured their vision. Being on the losing side, FPX had quickly gained an advantage in terrain and vision. Entering early and revealing their position wouldn't allow them to initiate an attack, so they might as well hide and try to counter-attack, hoping to find a few surprises.

Faced with TES's defensive support, the FPX team finally sensed something was wrong.

"Why did they suddenly join our tour group?"

"Wait, why is JKL's support character, Kraken, showing up?"

"Where's Veigar? Keep an eye on Banhuang's Veigar. This guy must have secretly farmed up two more items. I've seen this before when I watched TES matches."

"No problem, I can finish it in seconds."

As the jungler with the advantage, Xiaotian is extremely confident in his damage output. Of course, his primary goal now is to secure the dragon and force a team fight, as this is the core strategy of their lineup.

It's just a little strange...

That feeling of disharmony that had been building for over ten minutes reappeared.

Even though the opposing team had all gathered around and were poised to stop them from getting the dragon, why was Ha Huang's Lee Sin hovering around the edge of the dragon pit, looking like he was about to come down but didn't?
