Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 207 Instant Kill, Inhuman Equipment Build!
In the last wave, SKT ganked bot lane with four players, and Uzi's Ezreal obediently retreated.

But Bang subconsciously thought that Ezreal was just coming to the mid lane to farm, and that his Q was just to deal some damage.

Little did he know that if the other side gave him the chance, Li Luo would never mind getting another kill.

At this distance and in this position, even if Bang's Xayah had her ultimate to save her life, she wouldn't be able to escape.

The instant Li Luo's face turned E, he shouted.

Give me a shield.

Janna's shield instantly appeared on him, and the Ardent Censer's effects were also applied simultaneously. EZ, like a raging wild horse, launched a swift attack.
-
Mystic Shot (Q) -
Essence Vibrant (W)
The WQ combo at maximum range resulted in both skills hitting their mark.

"This is!!!" Bang was shocked.

He plays Ezreal very well. Although this build has never been seen before, just by looking at Ezreal's base stats, he can roughly guess just how explosive Ezreal's damage is now.

Oops!

The anticipated disastrous development has occurred.

The instant Ezreal's WQ combo at its maximum range dealt damage, Xayah's health bar vanished almost instantly, as if a major artery had been struck.

The explosive damage startled Bang so much that he accidentally activated his ultimate skill.

But the bright yellow light began to gather in Ezreal's hand, and then it turned into a huge golden shockwave that rushed towards Xayah.
-
The timing was perfect.

Bang, who had predicted the timing and location of Xia's fall, made perfect time for his ultimate move. Realizing that he was just a sitting duck when he used his ultimate, he was filled with regret.

He pressed R too early.

After Ezreal uses his WQ combo at its maximum range, he essentially has no ability to chase down opponents except for his R, without Iceborn Gauntlet.

On the contrary, it was his own clever move that brought Ezreal and himself so close that they could auto-attack each other.

As expected, things will develop as they did.

The moment the reduced-accuracy arcane shot hit Xia again, with a hiss, the Hextech Gun linked the two of them, unleashing another burst of damage.

Xia was instantly killed.

In the blink of an eye, to everyone else, even with her ultimate ability, Xayah only lasted for two seconds.

Braum, who arrived later, was taken aback, but Ezreal, who had already stacked five passive stacks by using his ultimate to scrape minions, was dealing terrifyingly high damage.

With Janna's Ardent Censer and Red Buff, they chased Braum all the way from the first tower to the second tower, managing to kill him right in front of the second tower. With two people dead, Ezreal, surrounded by Karma and Janna, pushed down the first tower in the mid lane at an astonishing speed.

Although the Ezreal's W skill hasn't been reworked yet, once the passive is stacked, the tower-pushing speed is boosted by AP, making it still a force to be reckoned with.

Two kills, and two mid-lane towers exploded.

This was the decisive moment that Li Luo had been preparing for.

However, this one-hit kill is a bit too hard for SKT to accept.

Ezreal, who was already very fed, took off completely after getting those two kills and tower gold.

After watching a single WQ combo in front of the high ground tower take down half of Ryze's health, Bang took a deep breath and said:

"I'm sorry, this one was my fault. I was too careless."

"It's alright, it's just Ezreal. Khan will build some defensive items later, and if we can withstand their burst damage in team fights, we can kill Ezreal instantly."

When the jungler Xiao Hei saw his teammates starting to feel down, he quickly comforted them.

"Um"

Bang responded, his tone revealing nothing of his state, but his pale face told one thing: he was still extremely uneasy.

What other items should Ezreal build?
Can it really kill Ezreal instantly? Or rather, can it really withstand the damage from this hybrid Ezreal build?

After securing those two kills, Li Luo didn't immediately return to base but continued farming.

In this scenario, a typical hybrid Ezreal build would build Blade of the Ruined King as their fourth item to enhance their auto-attack damage and maximize their overall damage output.

After clearing out the entire jungle and taking the mid lane, he used his ultimate to clear the minion wave he had accumulated in the top lane. Without wasting any time developing, he looked at the incredibly large amount of gold before pressing B to recall.

In this game, with four players protecting one, Li Luo decisively pulled out a Mejai's Soulstealer and a Hat.

It has been 23 minutes now.

Ezreal's CS count was -366.

This surpasses the record set by Froggen, the previous world number one Ice Queen, and is also known as the European Mage King.

In Li Luo's later years, Uzi himself also achieved the proud feat of 319 CS in 23 minutes during a match.

However, the difference between $366 and $319 is not small.

This means that the extra knife was obtained entirely through "stealing".

This number of last hits completely overturned the common sense of viewers who played the game in a conventional way.

"At this rate of development, it's only been 23 minutes! If the Mejai's Soulstealer has 25 stacks, that's practically a full build."

The three commentators were amazed.

"During this period, after Ezreal's ability power exceeded his attack damage, all of his adaptive force was added to his AP, resulting in over 500 ability power. Keep in mind, Faker's Ryze only has a little over 200 AP right now—he's incredibly rich!"

"Longhair exclaimed in surprise."

In just 23 minutes, one ADC had the highest level in the entire game, leading the second-place player by two levels.

Archangel's Staff, Manamune, Ionian Boots of Lucidity, Mejai's Soulstealer, Rabadon's Deathcap, Hextech Gunblade.

A rough calculation showed that the total economy was already 12,000 yuan. Sure enough, after the director opened the economic panels on both sides, Miller's conjecture was confirmed.

Saying "12,000 in competition" directly might not give you a clear sense of the economics, but just look at the matchups, and that economy seems incredibly exaggerated.

The enemy Xayah and Ezreal have been farming peacefully until now, but they only have 5800 gold. Braum is even worse off, with only 2600 gold.

This gap in economy and equipment—
"Isn't that too exaggerated?" Even though she had prepared herself mentally, Wawa couldn't help but exclaim loudly the moment she saw the difference.

It's only been 23 minutes, and you're already leading by nearly 7000 gold, your economic lead is even greater than their own?!
If you replace it with Infinity Edge, this is equivalent to having two more Infinity Edges.

But this is not an exaggeration; this is the true power of a four-protect-one strategy.

With the entire team's resources being allocated to this role, don't underestimate the control that a four-protect-one strategy can have in professional matches.

Many people have a prejudice against the "four-protect-one" strategy, but it's just that many teams don't know how to do it and try to imitate it poorly.

This includes several popular combinations that will become popular in later generations: Karthus and Nunu, Twitch and Taric, Master Yi and Taric, etc., which are four-protect-one heroes.

However, among all the four-protect-one lineups, protecting the dual-carry Ezreal is the most streamlined one.

Because Ezreal, as a carry, is not only highly mobile and difficult to target in the early game, but also incredibly difficult to defend against once he starts dealing damage.

Just like now.

Anyone hit by the W skill will lose at least half their health, except for Khan who can withstand it; the damage is shockingly exaggerated.

The damage from the Q skill is also quite high, and with the bonus from the Manamune, the damage is hard to understand.

Like harvesting leeks, Olaf was still foolishly passing by in the mid lane when, unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the bush, a yellow barrage of bullets swept past, followed by a small beam of light, and Olaf was instantly killed.

Before they even realized the danger, it was already too late. The Braum who was about to come up to provide vision was terrified and fled in a panic.

"Help! Help!"

"Ez is with me!"

Braum reacted quickly and flashed backward, not even saving his flash to initiate a team fight. However, Karma activated her E skill and charged forward to use her W to tether him.

Braum countered with a combo of RQ, dealing a little damage, but it was meaningless. The instant Braum was immobilized by Karma, Ezreal charged out from behind, yelling, and killed Braum instantly.

Not only that, Faker, who arrived in his R-class vehicle, was completely dumbfounded as he stared at the corpse of his teammate who had died a few seconds later, and at Ezreal who was at full health.

The Wind Woman, who had been standing behind, stepped forward, and a gentle breeze swept across her face, heading straight for the wanderer.

Brother Li quickly used Flash to create distance, trying to dodge Janna's wind attack and counterattack.

After calculating the distance between the two and taking a look at the wanderer's equipment, Li Luo did not give up the pursuit and let the wanderer escape. Instead, he followed closely behind the wanderer.

A, Tech Gun, Q, A, W.

With all three methods combined, even without his ultimate move, the Wanderer's health bar drops visibly, as if it were fake.

By the time of the third Q, even though Faker's butt was twisted so hard, the Rogue's model still had a hard time dodging Ezreal's Q skill.

The moment it hits, the wanderer is gone. Even without his ultimate ability, the speed at which he can kill someone still makes some assassin heroes lower their heads in shame.

Moreover, compared to the weakness that comes after a burst of damage that can only kill instantly, this EZ's damage is like a great river flowing down from the sky, endless and unstoppable.

When the sound of a triple kill rang out, Ezreal's health was still hovering around full.

Not only that, the Book of Murder has also quietly reached level 12, and its spell power has exceeded 650.
Even if Khan's Tentacle Mom flew over together, Ezreal could still kill her without taking damage thanks to Archangel's Shield, let alone Wanderer.

This combat power is outrageous.

This sudden burst of kills in the mid lane was just the first time that the dual-wielding Ezreal had shown its terrifying power to everyone.

Once Ezreal has all six items, he no longer needs to farm gold; instead, he needs to max out his Mejai's Soulstealer with 25 stacks.

One minute later, as Wolf died again on the screen, Ezreal's Mejai's Soulstealer reached level 16.

We often see in matches that the ADC has 10,000 gold, while the support might only have 4000.
This situation is extremely rare in ranked games, but in competitive matches, in order to give up more resources, supports only need to perform ward placement and crowd control duties.

Compared to supports in ranked games who also share the responsibility of dealing damage, supports in competitive games have both advantages and disadvantages.

In this game, the drawbacks of this support role became even more apparent.

Despite being a tanky Braum, he was even squishier than an ADC. Ezreal instantly killed him with a WQAE combo plus a Hextech Gunblade.

Despite the presence of the wandering creatures and Xayah, who were watching closely and trying to dissuade Ezreal from retreating.

However, RNG showed no intention of backing down. In a 3v3 situation, they were not afraid of SKT's lineup at all.

Seeing that the remaining two members of SKT were still harassing the bottom lane tower, Xiangguo's Jarvan IV also circled around.

"Today is the day to face death without fear."

The prince let out a strange cry and mindlessly EQed down, covering Xia and the Wanderer together inside.

An awkward situation occurred: Xayah used her ultimate ability immediately to avoid damage and crowd control.

Unfortunately, the prince's ultimate ability alters the terrain, so even if Xayah is floating in the air with her ultimate activated, she can't escape.

After Xayah landed, Ezreal used his W skill to fly over again with a light, airy motion.

There are no flashy special effects.

There are no exaggerated sound effects.

But this seemingly ordinary skill made the two people in the circle feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Unfortunately, the position is still very small, and there is only a little room to maneuver. The unrevamped Ezreal's W skill hit two people and instantly took away more than half of their health.

terror!
The only word to describe this EZ is "terrifyingly terrifying".

The AP bonus damage from the WE skills is too high; the highest magic resistance among the two is only 38 points, which is practically negligible.

Ezreal's primary target remains Faker's Ryze. Although Faker's positioning was poor this time, he found a way to avoid damage.

Bang's Xia is a natural live target.

With a small, elusive step, Ezreal silently slipped behind Xayah, and his Q arrived as expected, striking her.

The blue Manamune effect flashed, and another high amount of damage took another chunk out of Xayah's health bar.

E flashed with dazzling light, and Xia instantly collapsed to the ground!

Destroy everything!

The audience and commentators could only see this EZ player seemingly using cheat codes, slicing through everything in his path, leaving sparks and lightning, and spectacularly securing three more kills.

The Mejai's Soulstealer is fully stacked. None of the three players in SKT's mid and bot lanes can survive more than four seconds against Ezreal.

In the top lane, Hanzi finally cooperated with Wolf to kill Letme's Tentacle Illaoi. He switched the screen to the bottom lane and was about to teleport when he saw the inhuman damage Ezreal was dealing in the front line. He was completely stunned.

"He's cheating? This is like using a cheat code?"

The man was startled and silently moved his finger away from the teleportation screen, then began to return to base.

But within seconds, the guy went halfway crazy, opened the tab, and frantically marked explorers as survivors.

It wasn't until the system notified him that he had exceeded the limit for messages and could no longer speak that Hanzi Ge recovered from his madness, his whole body drenched in sweat.

The guy's behavior in the camera footage was captured by a comedian waiting in front of the screen, turned into a GIF, and immediately sent to various online forums.

The audience members present also made a "shh~~~" sound.

Your mentality is terrible.

Everyone on SKT was a little dazed. The team voice chat was as quiet as a library, with only occasional heavy breathing sounds coming from teammates through their headsets.

autistic?

Everyone became withdrawn!

Bang, who was in the worst condition, started shaking so badly that he could barely hold a small mouse. Xiao Hei, who had been comforting him, now looked completely bewildered.

He was killed instantly without seeing the damage from Ezreal before, but this time, he saw it clearly.

"What kind of monster is this?!"

The baby's trembling voice completely ignited the entire live stream.

Besides the screen filled with "666" comments, there were also many sighs from longtime RNG fans.

"Holy crap, why is this puppy getting stronger and stronger?"

"This Ezreal is like a ghost, he's dragged down RNG's overall economy, holy crap."

"To be honest, I really don't understand the damage output of this Ezreal build."

"The puppy's understanding of games, hiss..."
