She chose the strategy with the most bullet comments.

Even if you use W to close the distance and then throw Q, the cannon minion still dies to minions while Q is in flight.

Forced to transform into an Autobot.

Zaku zaku zaku, big Zaku!

Ye Ziyue screamed inwardly, her small mouth agape in discomfort, her eyes filled with displeasure.

I'm so angry.

A sly smile played on Su Mu's lips as he pressed Ctrl+3.

"Ding ding ding ding ding ding..."

When it comes to which champion in League of Legends has the most taunting abilities, the bell ringing from the Cow skin and Teemo's laughter are arguably neck and neck.

At best, it might teach someone to use Darius's Bloodrage passive; at worst, it might make Shi Liaozhi want to crush his opponent.

Several annoyed characters appeared on Ye Ziyue's head, but she did not completely lose her mind and rushed forward to cause trouble for Su Mu.

My WQ is on cooldown, so going in to trade blows will definitely result in a loss.

Although Su Mu is annoying, Ye Ziyue is not a powder keg who can explode at the slightest provocation, as she was able to reach the top 100 in the international server.

It's not like I haven't been taunted by opponents in the international version, with them flashing their badges, dancing around, or even stepping on my corpse. Compared to that, this noob sister's bell-ringing taunt is nothing.

"You wretched little fish sister, keep ringing the bell for yourself, your death is near; it's almost time!"

Just wait for the next skill combo to finish...

Just as Ye Ziyue was determined to send Su Mu back to the fountain, a kill announcement came from the top lane: Rumble had taken down Maokai and gotten the first blood for 400 gold.

Meanwhile, Sejuani, who was only level 2, was also killed by the turret.

"This Sejuani is playing a starvation strategy, sacrificing herself for her teammates, but to be honest, this wave isn't very profitable. Maokai has TP and can go back to the tower to farm."

"If you help Rumble gain a decisive advantage, Sejuani isn't too worried about the top side of the map. In fact, she'll have the energy to go into Graves' jungle."

"That's the theory, but it's based on the premise that the mid laner isn't at a disadvantage in their matchup. Currently, none of us know the extent of Alistar's influence in the jungle, so it's hard to make a judgment. We need to observe the situation further," Zhou Ling said.

The observer's perspective also happened to be in the mid lane, and when they saw Alistar ringing the bell, countless people couldn't help but smirk.

Qiyana also showed off her emoticons and Ctrl+3, and the two started arguing about it.

Stop with the facial expressions and dancing, and get down to business!

Many viewers in the live stream had the same thought.

Perhaps it was the power of countless hopes that worked in the dark, for Qiyana finally began to take the initiative, using her E to dash towards Alistar and unleash a Water Element Q, followed by a W to refresh her Earth Element Q for poke damage.

The bull's health dropped significantly, and then, the most unexpected scene unfolded. (Liu)

Suddenly, Alistar flashed to Qiyana's side, slamming her away. As dust billowed from his feet, he moved behind Qiyana and delivered a powerful frontal thrust, knocking her into the turret's range.

A Graves emerged from the F6 pit and fired a smoke grenade right in Qiyana's face.

[Are you blind?!]

"!!!")

Ye Ziyue quickly pressed Flash, but because Graves' W blocked her vision, she unexpectedly flashed right into Alistar's face...

Alistar's E skill was already half-stacked when Qiyana deliberately bumped into him. Once it was fully stacked, Alistar slapped Qiyana hard, knocking her unconscious.

With two hits from the turret, Graves easily one-shotted Qiyana and took 300 gold.

"Mumunaisi."

"No big deal." Su Mu's lips curled up, and he lightly brushed his bangs aside. "Just a little bit of bull-headed domain shock for that little brat up there."

The League boasts numerous champions who thrive on tower dives, such as Shen, Lissandra, and Tryndamere, who are always eager for someone to dive their tower.

Or, there are heroes like Gragas, Skarner, and Alistar who can force enemies to move as soon as they get close to the tower.

"Be careful of the grass..." Zhao Lisi shook her head helplessly before she could finish her sentence.

This wave is going to be a disaster.

"Mine." Zhou Xuemin pursed her lips, annoyed. "I didn't expect the other side to be so good at camping."

Those who hide in the bushes above the lines, preferring to let their troops slip through rather than come out, are often impossible to defend against.

Once Lucian gains the advantage, it will be even more difficult for him to push the lane and pressure the enemy. The Luna duo is too strong in the current version, and even champions like Ezreal and Karma will find it difficult to recover from a disadvantage.

"The top and bottom lanes are not easy to win step by step. If the mid and jungle don't move quickly, the gap will widen too much, and there will be no room to contest the neutral resources in the river."

Commentators generally consider things from the perspective of the weaker side, imagining how to engage the stronger side in team fights; this is a consensus among many MOBA game commentators.

"Qiyana is too strong in the jungle, and when paired with Sejuani who can snipe from a very long distance, the deterrent effect is off the charts."

"Let's see how things develop. Right now, it's not enough to just let Graves make moves; Alistar needs to join in too."

For mid laners to avoid losing, they need to control the lane and coordinate effectively.

Alistar is a champion that is mostly maxed out with W when playing solo lane. This results in low Q damage and slow wave clear. Many people have gradually realized this and don't really believe in the "Step by Step to Victory" strategy.

However, many people have overlooked two points. First, once the Minotaur's W skill is leveled up, it is excellent at disrupting people's mentality, and its damage output is almost negligible.

As the OB kept turning the camera to other directions, Ye Ziyue was almost rolling her eyes at the pressure. If she were less composed, she might even be making a V-sign with both hands.

So annoying, I really want to kill that damned bullhead!

Secondly, the advantage of Graves is that he clears jungle camps very quickly. Many times, when he invades the jungle, he doesn't give the enemy jungler any time to react. He can easily clear a group of jungle monsters and leave in just a few seconds by stepping on the vision. His steps are very relaxed and pleasant.

"I'm starving!"

Looking at the empty wilderness, Dingzhou felt incredibly frustrated and on the verge of tears.

Xiaolong was secured, but his CS count was only 26 after 7 minutes, even after losing two minions in lane.

On the other hand, Graves got 56 last hits.

"Stop talking nonsense, can you come to the bottom lane and tower dive?"

"I've only just reached level 5, do you think I can surpass that?"

"Sure, it's okay if you die while tanking the tower, we'll just get fed," Liu Xuan said expressionlessly.

Dingzhou: "..."

Damn it, that guy's teammate is a real jerk!

Fine, I'll sacrifice myself for the greater good. After all, Dingzhou is a lovable and wonderful teammate...

Our side has been killed!

"Uh…"

The sudden kill notification stunned Dingzhou and the others. They had been killed in a solo kill. What was going on?

Ye Ziyue's brows furrowed into a deep frown, her two rows of white teeth grinding together with a grinding sound, as she stared intently at the bloodied bull's head.

Ignite the final jump—

Dr. Wu Qiba Linqiyi survived with only 8 drops of blood…

"Ugh! I'm so angry!"

77. Proceed step by step

Although Ye Ziyue only shouted it out in her heart, Dingzhou and Liu Xuan, who were sitting next to her, could clearly feel the invisible anger coming from beside them.

Like the feeling of a crocodile or a Barbarian King with their rage bars fully charged...

We dare not say what happened, nor do we dare to ask, but judging from the location of Niu Tou's ultimate move and Ye Ziyue's death, we can guess the general idea.

The team's in-game voice chat for "Step by Step to Victory".

"That was pretty dangerous, wasn't it? Luckily, I just reached level 6." Zhou Xuemin switched the screen back.

Su Mu smiled faintly, "It's not dangerous, everything is within my calculations."

"what?"

"I deliberately let the lane go and let myself get to level 6 first. I calculated that a minion on the lane would die naturally, and I would have enough experience to level up to 6, use my ultimate to remove crowd control, reduce subsequent damage, and get a counter-kill."

"That terrifying?"

"Generally speaking, it's mainly because Ye Xiaoguitou's intentions weren't hidden deep enough, even though she tried her best to appear as if she had no intention of killing me..." Su Mu chuckled.

Little did they know that the more they acted this way, the more obvious it became to seasoned veterans.

Although Qiyana died, Su Mu's Alistar was also out of form. He had already used Teleport, so he still had to give up the jungle resources.

Giving up resources is a minor issue. For the sake of the team, she plays WQ to farm points, and when she gains an economic advantage in the mid lane, she converts it into equipment. Her wave clear speed is not slow, and she can quickly emerge to lead the game.

This time point is approximately 10 minutes.

Her mythical gear will probably still be a bit lacking by then, but Bai Wei's shield and bow will definitely be available. As long as the disadvantage on the top and bottom lanes doesn't continue to widen, giving up a little something is acceptable.

The entire team also realized that while they did gain an advantage in the early game, it was difficult to snowball that advantage.

When EZ and Karma want to play defensively and farm, sometimes you really can't do anything about it. Tower diving isn't always the right move, especially when the mid and jungle are at a disadvantage.

As for Maokai, with magic resistance items, his lane sustain gradually improves as he levels up, making him able to barely withstand Rumble's attacks.

Their lineup is strong in small-scale skirmishes or all-out team fights in the jungle, but unfortunately, they can't win by simply playing a more conservative approach.

Little Dragon, release it.

Vanguard, let go.

They didn't even bother to come over and take a look.

Even so, Ye Ziyue and her group found that they still couldn't gain a significant advantage. The reason was that every time Step by Step Winner Nakano took advantage of them to acquire resources, he would cause trouble in the other half of the map.

They were attacking the dragon, while Alistar and Qiyana were ganking Rumble.

If you take the lead, the enemy will use their harassing abilities to harass Luna in the bottom lane. With Alistar tanking the tower and providing reliable crowd control, you can at least kill one enemy if you initiate.

When the 12-minute mark arrived and the Rift Herald destroyed the first tower, EZ had also taken three tower plates from the bottom lane.

"Brother Mu's strategy is brilliant! He revitalized the bottom lane by sacrificing only my top lane position!" Zhang Xiaoyu's eyes sparkled with admiration.

"The other side doesn't understand the half-zone principle, or rather, they understand a little bit but not completely." Su Mu didn't think there was anything to be proud of, and her tone was very calm.

To be honest, the game has been in open beta for less than a year, and even the designers probably don't know as much as she does how to win.

Even among top players, there are differences. A player with less than a year of experience will definitely have an advantage over an amateur master who has six or seven years of experience understanding the general trends of the game.

"The half-area principle?" While last-hitting minions under the second tower, Zhang Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask curiously.

This word was very novel to her.

Simply put, when your jungler and mid laner are both active in one half of the map, the player in the more distant half should be prepared for a gank and take precautions to avoid the risk.

"Previously, Sejuani and Qiyana were eyeing the Rift Herald in the top half of the map, and Luna in the bottom lane even dared to leave the tower. Didn't they think our mid and jungle were taking us seriously?"

Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly realized, "I understand now. By the way, why didn't Brother Mu mention this before?"

“Hmm, as the saying goes, memorizing a poem ten times is not as memorable as copying it by hand once. You’ve witnessed the half-group rule firsthand, so you know what to expect in the later matches, right?” Su Mu said.

"Understood. From now on, if you and Xiaowei are not in the upper half of the map, I will absolutely not leave the turret."

"It's not that bad..." Su Mu blushed slightly, then said seriously, "Pay attention to your eye positions. With good vision, everything will go smoothly, and victory will be assured with steady progress."

While speaking, place a ward in the bushes at a key point in the jungle.

……

The more the match went on, the more surprised some of the professional teams who were following it became.

What incredible vision control!

The scoreboard clearly shows that the mid-jungle duo's vision control was more than double that of their opponents, and the support had a similar score.

Many casual players may not understand the purpose of vision points, but professional teams who study this game day and night know it very well.

Vision means map information. Whoever controls more map information has a greater advantage and can do a lot by taking advantage of information gaps.

This is a complex subject, and it cannot be simply summarized as placing a ward in the bushes.

In the RT team's training room, the coach and manager were both staring intently at the monitors.

With their keen eyesight, it's not hard to see that Qingxin is likely to lose this round, and even the second round is unlikely to be won.

The two teams are not on the same level in terms of overall style, or rather, overall skill level and understanding of the game.

"It would be best to take care of Nakano from Step by Step to Win O, Lin Jiu Liu Jiu; I feel his talent and skill are quite good."
