You actually want me to...

As for the currently popular AP Rumble jungler and the AP Morgana previously developed by TES, they have undoubtedly become the meta picks, with alternatives including AP Shyvana, AP Fiddlesticks, and AP Gragas. Even if you don't pick an AP jungler, the jungler must be a champion who can make plays early game. The core of this change is that previously, you could heal yourself by attacking the Rift Scuttler, but after the update, the healing from the Rift Scuttler has been transferred to Frog Princess.

To put it simply: I estimate you'll farm in the early game (before level 4), gank in the mid-game, and just be a support character.

Forget about getting a huge lead over your opponent with two river crabs at the start. Just accept the designer's plan. As for TES's bot lane pick, JKL hasn't teamed up with Prophet in a while, so let's play it safe for now. This combination is comfortable in the early game, so we can check out the top lane to see what's going on.

Second round bans: Renekton, Olaf, Nocturne, Kindred

It's nothing special, just a mundane mutual targeting; there's not much to say about that.

On their fourth move, PGG pulled out the Scarecrow.

In that instant, the chat in the LPL live stream went completely off track.

【? ? ? ? ? ? 】

Good lad, I salute you as a warrior!

This is like showing off your axe skills in front of Guan Yu, or playing with a straw doll in front of the founding patriarch; it's obvious you've never died before.

[Who was this brave last time? I forgot, but they died a pretty horrible death. I heard that every night before going to sleep, you could see two scarecrows when you opened your window.]

Viewers who are not from the LPL look down on Scarecrows from other regions.

Rather... they were afraid that this young man would be completely outplayed by Roland and question his existence. People in the LPL region themselves understood that to counter TES, you had to use mainstream heroes, the more mainstream the better.

If you mess with him, he'll swindle you out of everything.

"Hey, you, the enemy jungler is interacting with you." In TES's team voice chat, even JackeyLove and the others laughed when they saw this choice.

Are you... here to give away points?

"Let him choose, he's not a support, and neither am I. Why are you telling me this?"

"Oh, this."

The fifth pick was given to the top laner. PGG clearly thought they had Roland under their thumb. However... it's rare for Roland to be on the field as a top laner. Although there are many better options, it's definitely more appropriate to choose one of the most representative heroes of the top lane.

Hero counters?

That's based on equal strength.

Although Roland usually plays support professionally, he would definitely feel that he might not be able to switch back to top lane against players like Nuguri and TheShy. But are you kidding me, playing against a wildcard region like PGG?

The fourth pick is Nightmare to prevent the opponent from using the "Turn Off Lights and Jump Ultimate" combo; the fifth pick is Riven, a direct showdown!

The day the broken sword is reforged will be the day the knight returns!

Without hesitation, without fear, and without even considering choosing a hero with a higher margin for error, life is short, so if you don't take this chance, you'll take the next one. Screw Jill, just do it!

"Raven?"

"Although I don't know the skill level of the King of the Plate Riven, experience tells me that whenever he pulls out a hero we haven't seen before, the game is likely to be won." Miller, as a newly minted loyal fan of the King of the Plate, knows all about these habits of his.

Unsurprisingly, the moment Raven's image appeared and locked onto the screen, the entire stadium erupted in a deafening cheer.

Do you think only LPL viewers are tired of seeing the same dozen or twenty heroes in the same matches?

No, actually, people from other regions are also tired of watching.

Everyone's just here for fun, and for Icelandic fans, it doesn't really matter which team wins, right? It's not their favorite team anyway, so naturally they want things to be as flashy as possible, at least to be worth the ticket price.

Of course, PGG was ecstatic as well.

In the Chinese server ranked data of Roland, who was temporarily recruited by PGG coach, his Riven appearance rate was 7 times and his win rate was as high as 0%. He was also building armor penetration items, which shows that he is a naive kid.

Even the coach had already congratulated their top laner, Biopanther.

"Listen, brother, your day of fame has come."

"Yes, I believe PABU (the jungler) thinks the same way, right?"

"Don't worry, I'll do my best to create opportunities for you to fight one-on-one. I'm rooting for you."

As brothers, in our hearts, 9295 and 98.

At that moment, Biopanther's eyes were filled with tears of emotion.

With their final move, PGG locked in Xu, the top laner, and secured the win.

TES: Top lane Riven, Jungle Rumble, Mid lane Nocturne, Bot lane Kai'Sa + Nautilus

PGG: Top laner Xu, jungler Fiddlesticks, mid laner Lee Sin, bot lane Jinx + Thresh

Game start.

The Battle for Supremacy: Chapter Six: Top Lane, Is It Really Such an Inconvenient Thing?

At the start of the game, TES immediately chose to invade PGG's bottom lane jungle.

Fiddlesticks jungle isn't impossible, but there's a major problem with this champion: his rhythm absolutely cannot be disrupted. If you start with blue buff, clear the wolves and blue buff together, drawing aggro from the wolves before starting the buff. Conversely, if you start with red buff, clear the raptors first, then the red buff. The principle is that Fiddlesticks' W doesn't require vision; as long as you're within range, you can absorb the buff without needing vision.

At a normal pace, you can finish clearing the dungeon in 3 minutes and 30 seconds, and still have a Smite left, so you can go to the river to steal the Rift Scuttler.

Of course, the theory is simple, but in actual combat, mistakes often occur where monsters move out of the aggro range. Simply put, you need to practice more in custom games.

Roland and the others definitely knew your Fiddlesticks jungle clearing method and route, but they weren't worried. They just came in to place a ward and then left. Then they sent Banhuang to invade the enemy's upper jungle alone to see if anyone from PGG came to place a ward.

"how?"

"Some of them came over to provide vision, probably because they were afraid we would directly trade jungle areas with them."

"Well, there's no other way then. Just go with the normal approach. If you want to push it up, you'll have to keep an eye on the middle and upper ranks yourself."

"Don't worry, who am I? King Raven!"

Upon arriving at the lane bush at level one, Roland, seeing the location of the bush on the other side where it was uncertain whether Urgot was present, immediately began the most basic Riven tutorial: level one Q trap.

Regardless of whether it's useful or not, in a 1v1 situation, Riven can only possibly beat Urgot at level one. By timing the cooldown of each segment of her Q skill to its maximum value, it's possible to barely maintain a connection between Q skills, meaning the passive damage can be frequently sustained through Q skills.

However, although the opponent is a wildcard, they are clearly a veteran.

When Roland's Riven used Q to enter the top lane bush, he couldn't find Urgot anywhere. Upon closer inspection, Urgot was right under the tower, watching Roland battle it out with thin air in the bush, and even had his icon flashing in the distance.

"The enemy top laner is something else."

"How's it going? Can you handle it?"

"Don't worry, I have a way."

It's normal for the opponent to avoid Riven's level 1, so Roland took advantage of the opponent's timid appearance at level 1 and directly rushed to level 2. Then... he decisively learned E and entered the bush. (From a Nasus forum video tutorial) - Start!

"Ha Emperor, help me, Ha Emperor!"

"What's wrong? You were playing pretty well." I glanced at my teammate's avatar at the top of the map, and he hadn't lost any health.

"The problem is, even if you bring TheShy and Nuguri, they still can't beat Urgot in lane after level two, help, HaKing!!!"

"Alright, alright, we'll go up in a bit."

Anyone who has played Urgot knows that Urgot has a unique, favored son in the entire league: Riven.

No joke.

Aside from level 1, in terms of laning alone, Urgot can suppress Riven from level 2 to level 18, leaving her completely helpless.

The reason why PGG's coach was so confident before the game that their chance to make a name for themselves had arrived was because the top lane pressure chain was too strong. How could Riven possibly beat Urgot?

This is unplayable.

only...

Just as Hahuang finished clearing the lower jungle and was about to continue clearing the upper jungle, Roland suddenly started marking him on the map with unusually frequent markers. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Roland had even run into the enemy jungle and was now marking him to flank the enemy jungler.

"Wait...didn't you tell me to go up and help you? Why are you in the jungle instead?"

"That's not important. What's important is that we wait until everyone's heads are split 50/50, understand?"

"Okay, no problem, here you go first, you can eat me next time they catch me."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, my nickname is Wu Wu."

"???"

At this moment, in PGG's jungle, PABU, who has a green haircut, has just reached the F6 position and started pulling two camps. For Fiddlesticks, the most feared thing in the early game is the opponent's crazy invasion of his own jungle.

But this time...

Since our mid laner is Lee Sin, although he's not good against Nocturne in the laning phase, Lee Sin has one advantage: he's quick to gank. With wards protecting the jungle, if the enemy jungler still dares to invade, wouldn't our mid laner have to come and break his legs?

"Biopanther, where's the enemy top laner?"

"He's AFK in the bushes. This guy is a newbie who just switched to the game temporarily. When he was level 1, he even tried to fight me with a skill that even Silver players know, like the level 1 Q card. Now he's starting to back down."

"Do I need to wait and go up there?"

"No need, I can handle this coward by myself." Level 2, full health, retreat to gain experience. If Biopanther can't break through this cowardly Riven, how can he justify his many years of professional career? With his lane dominance, even if the team loses in the end, the headlines in their own region will definitely be: "TES's godlike performance can't hide the weakness of the underdog; Biopanther's unkillable Urgot shows the kingly style!" It's a fair trade, okay?

While Ueno and Ueno were chatting, Rumble's sneaky intrusion into PGG's field of vision clearly caught the attention of PGG's mid and jungle players.

"He's here, he's here, he's coming with a buff."

"Don't get agitated. Pretend you haven't noticed anything. We'll surround him once he's a bit closer."

"Don't worry, I'm a professional at selling blood."

In that instant, the blood of PGG's mid and jungle players boiled.

What's going on today? It feels like they're getting closer and closer to victory. Just thinking about how after this game, the whole world will be talking about PGG defeating TES, and then they'll get promoted, get a raise, marry a beautiful and rich woman, and reach the pinnacle of life—wouldn't that be a piece of cake?

Oh no, bro, we're about to strike it rich!

Meanwhile, on the other side, TES...

"Wait a minute, I remember they placed a ward at the entrance to the jungle. Could this jungler be a StarCraft player?"

"Who knows? Since he's so sincere about giving it away, why don't we just be merciful and send him away? Let's go, let's get started!"

In the picture.

Just as the scarecrow successfully lured Rambo into his body and was about to call for Lee Sin to come over for an inside attack, a bunny girl suddenly appeared from the bushes, completely disrupting his inner peace.

"Holy crap!? Riven? CHAZZ, save me!"

"Ahem, this bunny girl is very pretty, and this Rambo is very high-tech. Both of them are very precious. Let the comrades go first. I have something to do, so I'll take my leave." After saying that, the Lee Sin immediately used his Q on the minions to yo-yo, completely ignoring his teammates' wailing in the voice chat.
