Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 350 I feel them... they've all come back!
Two kills and one assist, plus the top jungle on both sides—this amount of gold is too extravagant for a jungler like Elise.

"My god, this Spider is so fed right now, and the worst part is that FPX doesn't have a champion that can counter her."

"The Spider is really fed now; she can easily deal enough damage to gank all three lanes."

Seeing this, the director cleverly switched to the economics panel.

As expected, EDG's overall economy was already 2800 gold ahead, with the bot lane and jungle alone accounting for 2000 gold.

After glancing at the opposing team's economy, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"I can understand other junglers having an economic lead, but Elise is just too outrageous!"

"I'm really looking forward to his performance next."

The director naturally noticed that the spider's equipment was now extremely luxurious.

and so.

The camera focused directly on the two characters, Spider and Pantheon.

on the big screen.

The commentator and all the viewers witnessed a truly outrageous scene.

Li Luo skillfully maneuvered the spider, emerging directly from the bushes. Pantheon jumped in to stun Nocturne, but the stun was blocked, forcing Nocturne to use Flash to retreat.

The entire coordination was so skillful that even a Nightmare at full health and level six could only flee in panic when faced with a spider approaching.

The minion wave was pushed to the tower by the combined efforts of Spider and Pantheon, and then the two turned around and walked casually to the bottom lane.

Just like in scrims and ranked games, the two players' teamwork was superb.

For a jungler, map control requires a high level of attention to detail and a strong grasp of the overall rhythm.

but.

This is Clearlove's signature move. Even on the world stage, when facing top players from all walks of life, Clearlove can execute it without hesitation.

Xiao Tian is like a king of the new era.

The factory director that Li Luo represents at this time is a remnant of the old era.

When a young man who lacks martial ethics comes up and says "I'll make a fool of myself" before immediately starting to demonstrate his special skills...

Only then did everyone realize that these sunset glows actually harbored such enormous energy.

As the dragon's mournful cry rang out, Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong in the bottom lane had no choice but to retreat.

but.

When the two players controlled their heroes to hide inside the tower, they were surprised to find that Pantheon and Elise were still relentlessly pursuing them, trying to surround them right in front of their vision.

what?
What the hell?

Why?

As the champion AD carry who didn't die once in the finals, Lin Weixiang's skill level may be high, but his experience is definitely not much.

Even last season, he was not arrested more than five times.

When they met again, and it was the first time since winning the championship, even the smartest person was dumbfounded.

At this moment, Gragas was still farming in his own upper jungle and had no time to support the bottom lane. The two enemy players didn't look like they were ganking anyone; they looked more like they were returning to their own jungle.

???

When Liu Qingsong saw Spider and Pantheon, his eyes turned red, and he was barely able to control his emotions.

But when he glanced at the spider's equipment, his anger instantly vanished as if ice water had been poured over his head.

His Alistar is only level 5 right now. If he reaches level 6 in this wave, he might still try to maneuver under the tower.

At this point, the only option is to abandon the bottom lane.
"Hey, look at this, FPX's bot lane just slipped away using Senna's W skill. Are they not going to defend their bot lane tower?"

On the LpL commentary booth, Wawa was shouting and complaining that he was feeling unwell.

"This Coin Guy's Nightmare is in big trouble now. He was supposed to come down in this team fight, but he was pushing the lane instead, which is a bit..." Miller was speechless.

Just then, seeing the two bot laners about to leave, Scout's Pantheon stubbornly aimed his ultimate at FPX's second turret.

Senna reacted quickly, flashing forward to the second tower, leaving Alistar alone.

???

"Wow!"

"This"

"This"

Both Doll and Miller were speechless at this move.

The screen was filled with question marks in the comments.

"Are you so cowardly?"

"That Senna was amazing! She used Flash to escape!"

"Isn't Alistar there? If he pushes away the enemies behind with his W, they won't be able to get here."

The director, being rather ruthless, took advantage of the moment when Edg's four bot laners were pushing the first tower to show a replay.

In the bottom right corner of the camera are Scout and Li Luo. After startling Senna into using Flash, Scout burst out laughing in front of everyone, while Li Luo was also babbling incoherently, seemingly saying something.

As for Li Luo, he smiled, looking at his piglets like a kind old father.

The factory manager's looks are not bad, in fact, they are quite captivating, the kind of looks that grow on you the more you look at him. At this moment, coupled with Li Luo's kind expression, a large group of female fans who came specifically to support Edg were mesmerized!
After this wave destroyed one tower.

Backstage at the stadium.

Edg's lounge.

Sitting next to Abu on the sofa, listening to the explanation with surprise, Abu couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.

At first, when he returned to the locker room at the stadium, Abu was a little uneasy, as if he was thinking about something unpleasant.

But as Edg's performance on the field became more and more impressive, and everyone's tacit cooperation moved Abu.

In just a few minutes, Edg completely crushed FPX, leaving them unable to retaliate.

Scout, in particular, after being activated, has shown such boldness and composure that he has taken Edg's veteran coach quite by surprise.

Abramovich boasted that he knew the players he had personally facilitated the signings of extremely well, but now he realizes he was wrong.

If Jian Zihao is 1, Mingkai is 1, Scout is 1, and Meiko and Flandre together are 0.5, then now, the combined fighting power of this team is no longer 4, but 20 or 30!

Chemical reaction?

crazy?

Abu felt that the world was different now.

Another place.

Sitting in the lounge, the Duke, swirling his paper cup like a wine glass, watched Edg's performance with a complex expression.

"Is it a coincidence that the factory manager can still play in the competition and suppress Xiaotian?"

As we all know, any new jungler who comes to the LPL or makes their first few appearances on the field has a so-called "bonus period".

During the bonus period, no one can figure out your attack strategy, and it's easy for a newbie to overwhelm a veteran.

However, once the time goes on and the number of times increases, everyone will know the direction of your attack and will naturally have ways to defend against it.

This is the most important factor in judging a jungler's skill level.

Despite being despised by all players and viewers, Leyan has managed to return to the competitive scene despite all the controversies. This is not because there is no one who can replace him, but because there are very few junglers who can consistently perform well even after being analyzed and studied.

"He's strong, but he won't go far, haha. It's good that so many big stars are on the same team and keep winning, but what if they lose even one game?" The toothpaste on the side revealed a meaningful smile, as if he was thinking about some things from back then.

"Do you really think it's so easy to assemble an All-Star team? Wasn't OMG the best example back then?"

"Besides, Clearlove is getting old. He can only team up with Scout to bully mid laners like Doinb who are weak in lane. If it were one of the teams with strong mid and jungle players now..."

"boom~"

As he spoke, he made an explosion gesture, which immediately caused the JD Gaming team to burst into laughter, creating a joyful atmosphere.

now.

On the playing field.

FPX team.

Seeing the bottom lane tower fall and his own Flash cooldown, Da Congming frowned, feeling a little upset.

He never expected that he would be so frightened that he would teleport.

When he first faced Edg, even though the opposing bot lane consisted of Uzi and Meiko, a new combination of already established players, he wasn't afraid.

But now, under immense laning pressure, he has to admit that there is still a gap in laning strength between the two sides.

Everyone at FPX knows that their bot lane is having a tough time.

Thus, all the pressure fell on the jungler, Xiaotian.

A mid-jungle synergy is urgently needed to get the game going.

Doinb anxiously directed the attack, trying to find a breakthrough, but to his dismay, after looking at the players on the map, he realized that the only ones who could make a move were either the mid-laner Pantheon or the top-laner Renekton.

He has to take care of the other lanes on his team, otherwise if the bottom lane is ruined, the team won't be able to hold out for more than 30 minutes.

The time was a little over 11 minutes.

Kai'Sa in the bot lane has 138 CS, while Senna has 85 CS.

In this match, Zaozi's dominance was evident in his CS (creep score) numbers.

Almost every viewer who watched the match could sense just how miserable Da Congming's game was, judging from his pitifully low number of last hits.

Every time he gets a last hit, he faces the eager attacks of Meiko's Nautilus and Kai'Sa's inexplicable stealth attacks.

This was incredibly unfriendly to him, who was used to Xiaotian and Doinb frequently coming to help in the bottom lane.

At thirteen minutes, the Edg duo, who had switched to the top lane, forcefully pushed down the first tower and then killed Alistar again.

Within fifteen minutes, all three outer turrets of FPX were destroyed.

At seventeen minutes, Flandre pushed the lane solo, out-leveling Fiora by two levels and doing whatever he wanted. Even when Doinb flew over, he managed to trade one for one with Nocturne, giving his teammates enough time to whittle down most of the health of the mid-lane second tower.

If Senna doesn't farm up properly, her wave clear ability will be practically zero when FPX picks her lineup.

Nineteen minutes in, FPX's three mid-lane towers were once again taken down by Edg using their individual advantages. They didn't fight a single team fight throughout the entire game, but their economic snowball had unknowingly reached nearly 10,000.

Thus, the outcome of this match has completely lost its suspense.

Twenty minutes later.

Edg's players gathered directly in front of the Baron pit, waiting for Baron to spawn in an attempt to rush it down.

If FPX comes over, then we should choose to engage in team fights and wipe out FPX first.

If FPX doesn't come over, then just kill Baron Nashor instantly.

Edg's most classic 20-minute Baron Nashor-forcing team fight tactic remains unchanged, even with a different executor.

of course.

There are risks involved.

Back then, RNG relied on Xiangguo's Nightmare to win a Baron team fight that even the commentators couldn't understand how they won, which was truly terrifying.

If this wave isn't played well, losing the Baron is a minor issue; if we get wiped out, it will be a much bigger problem.

now.

While Edg focused on Baron Nashor, FPX seemed to react too slowly. Senna was still farming minions in the bottom lane and didn't immediately use her ultimate to check the vision around Baron.

Doinb didn't realize what was happening until the dragon's health dropped below 5,000. He quickly used his vision to spot the five people in the dragon pit.

In an instant, countless FPX signals rang out in the Dragon Pit.

Then, in a moment of desperation, Doinb's Nightmare saw that Baron Nashor only had 2000 health left, and told Senna to use her ultimate to open vision so that he could fly over and try to steal the Baron.

This Baron Nashor wave was crucial.

They are already at such a disadvantage that if they lose the Baron buff, they will lose at least two, or even three, lanes of inhibitor turrets.

At that point, with a lineup that can't even clear regular minion waves, they'll basically have given up the game.

However, Edg's dragon-slaying speed was simply too fast.

By the time Nightmare flew over, the dragon's health had dropped below 1,000.

"Dragon-killing? Or fighting?" Holy Gun Bro shouted anxiously in his voice chat.

"The dragon's health is too low, let's attack the dragon first," Zaozi said decisively after taking over command.

This Nightmare attack targeting the Spider was a very good decision.

"Fight the dragon! Fight the dragon! My CJ's health is almost gone!"

Seeing Nightmare flying over, Li Luo's eyes narrowed, and he used his Spider Form's E skill to fly into the air, dodging Nightmare's subsequent damage and control.

The next instant, as the dragon's health dropped below the Smite threshold, a yellow flash accompanied the spider as it fell from the sky.

In the distance, Xiaotian's Gragas also used his E skill to travel, throwing out his ultimate, which blasted towards the Baron pit.

At that moment, the hearts of countless spectators in the audience were in their throats.

This dragon almost decided FPX's fate in this match.

Will Edg secure Baron Nashor and end the game smoothly, or will FPX have a chance to hold off their attack with Baron Nashor and delay until Senna gets her items and passive ability to take off?

It all depends on the outcome of the dragon!

The answer was revealed in the next instant.

Gragas is a tanky champion, and his ultimate damage isn't terrifying. When Li Luo was downed, Baron's health was just at the Smite threshold, so Gragas essentially wasted his ultimate.

They failed to secure Baron Nashor, and the mid-laner Nocturne who charged into the Baron pit was instantly focused down and killed by the Edg team.

dead!
Zaozi's crazy output poured onto Nightmare, and at this moment, he felt that he was in better shape than ever before!

"Mingkai, we'll achieve results this season!!!"

In the camera footage, for some reason, Zaozi's words instantly broke everyone's defenses. Not only him, but also Meiko, Scout, and Flandre had tears in their eyes.

No amount of practice matches can be treated as official matches!
Many scrim champions were utterly crushed by other teams in the main tournament.

But today, facing off against the S9 champion team FPX, everyone truly felt the unprecedented strength of Edg!
"My condition is recovering. My reaction time, my hand speed, my awareness—I can feel them all coming back."

Holding the mouse with trembling hands, Brother Zaozi shouted out excitedly.

Although there weren't many opportunities for Zaozi Ge to shine in this game.

But the data panel shows an undeniable CS advantage of over 110 CS in 20 minutes!

Even the commentators and viewers fell silent. Edg's performance in this match forced them to acknowledge a fact that was difficult for them to accept:

Edg!

This is a team that currently shows no weaknesses!
