Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 384 I'm on the fifth floor, you're on the first floor

"Kanavi might go to the top lane after clearing the blue buff, Xuanjun, be careful not to get ganked."

Counter-attacking requires speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness.

This wave not only stole the red buff from the blue team's bottom half of the map, but also reduced the F6 camp to just one small bird.

This method of farming is highly discouraged in the early stages, but Li Luo still did it without hesitation.

The purpose was to leave a deep impression on Kanavi.

"It's okay, it's okay. You know Zoom's Renekton. I kept him calm and he didn't dare to try and kill me," Flandre said, his expression solemn as he stared intently at the screen, trying to reassure everyone.

This is the role of a good top laner in S10.

You don't need to be a carry or a top player. As long as you can deal damage when the team allocates resources to you and withstand the pressure when the team doesn't, you're a qualified top laner.

Flandre's rock-solid performance not only left Zoom helpless but also restricted Kanavi's movement.

Should we continue to counter-jungle as the coach instructed before the game?
This is the biggest problem that Kanavi needs to think about.

The game time was flying by. In just 8 minutes, Edg's advantages in all lanes except top lane began to become more or less obvious, especially in the bottom lane where they had a gold difference of 800.

At this point in time, not counting the gold from the first kill, there's already a huge gap.

However, as JD.com's lineup entered its strong period, it gradually stabilized its disadvantage and closed the economic gap. If Edg wants to continue to expand, it must find a suitable breakthrough.

This is also a limitation of jungle carry. Currently, it's difficult to gank JD's top laner Renekton, not to mention the mid laner Azir. With Cleanse, he can't even see the minion wave from a distance. The bot lane, which suffered losses in the first two games, is even more cautious. Loken was practically standing under the second tower farming minions.

And now everyone has reached level six, which is just the time to start the battle.

"JD is having a tough time right now, constantly being pressured by Edg. The main problem is that the level 1 team fight had a huge impact; Kanavi's Trundle was a full two levels behind Graves, and they're still a level behind now."

"You can't play like this, Kanavi. You're a troll, and you're going to go and farm against Graves. Aren't you just asking to get beaten up later?" Wawa shook his head and sighed as he watched the situation on the field change.

"Graves is playing too aggressively now that he has an advantage. Clearlove has gained an advantage in equipment and levels and has been invading the blue side's jungle, making it impossible for Kanavi to move."

"Actually, this is largely due to EdgG's bot lane. Greenmao couldn't move at all and was forced to stay in the bot lane with Uzi to fight and farm. Kanavi had no one to support him in the jungle, so naturally he didn't dare to fight Graves head-on!"

I remember the teacher also clearly saw the biggest drawback of JD.com at present.

Throughout the Spring Split, JD Gaming's biggest advantage in advancing to the finals was that Greenmao could seamlessly coordinate with Kanavi, putting immense pressure on the other lanes.

With the support of his online advantage, Kanavi can play more aggressively. Not only will no one try to invade his jungle, but once the early game is over, you won't see Kanavi in ​​your own jungle; he'll be in the enemy jungle.

Now, facing Edg, a team with extremely strong online dominance, JD Gaming has been very powerless and is fighting individually.

At this point, wanting to clash with Edg is nothing short of wishful thinking.

"The factory manager's constant invasions prevented Kanavi from showcasing his strengths. I think the audience should be very familiar with this player's playstyle by now. His strengths are not in mechanics, but in awareness, ganking, and counter-jungling. Unfortunately, in this game, his Trundle was completely shut down by Graves!"

Miller glanced at the performance of the two junglers. In the three games, Li Luo had basically dominated Kanavi. There was no need to give JD Gaming any face at this point; he could just tell the truth.

"Fortunately, JD Gaming has stabilized now. Let's see how they handle things next. Both sides' Summoner Spells are ready again. Let's see if a dragon fight breaks out this time!"

Wawa continued, "However, if the dragons start, Edg doesn't really gain much. Their lineup means that they will face a lineup disadvantage once there are more than three people in a team fight. Hey? Zoom has started pushing the lane, and Clearlove has also come to the mid lane. Is he eyeing Toothpaste?"

"On JD.com, toothpaste is currently performing the best, very steadily, and both recruitment and acceptance measures are in place. Is there a chance for it?"

in the game.

In the mid-lane matchup, Yagao played Azir against Lissandra and naturally wouldn't get solo killed. However, his Azir play wasn't very good either. If Scout hadn't been less proficient with Lissandra, Azir wouldn't have been able to farm so comfortably.

After reaching level 7, Graves went back to base to buy some items, then headed straight for the mid lane, eventually stopping behind the first tower, seemingly eyeing JDG's mid lane.

At this moment, the dragon hasn't been fought yet, and Edg can't see the Trundle's position in their vision. The safest way to take the dragon is to first kill JDG's mid laner.

"Is there a chance?" Li Luo asked in a low voice.

"Yes! He's taking advantage of his level and pushing speed to get ahead, and he keeps trying to trade blows and push the lane. I guess they're going to make a move on the dragon. As long as I don't push against him, the lane will come back to me!" Scout immediately responded.

"They seem to have a real idea!" The outside world also saw the actions of the Ice Maiden and Graves, and everyone immediately perked up, staring at the screen to see how Edg would make this play.

"Actually, Azir is probably the hardest person to catch for JDG right now. He has Cleanse, Flash, and his ultimate. I feel like EdgG is trying to reduce Azir's health to take the dragon, just to be on the safe side." Miller was talking enthusiastically when he suddenly paused and asked, "Eh? Is Kanavi also trying to gank mid?"

What started as a gank by Edg suddenly turned tense: "Kanavi must have sensed something in the mid lane. He knows Edgg wants to take the dragon and will definitely focus on Azir, so he's counter-ganking now. If he can succeed, their early disadvantage can be wiped out!"

"The troll is not moving! Looks like they really are counter-ganking!"

"Wow!!!!"

Everyone present was stunned by what they saw, followed by thunderous applause.

"My god, the two sides are at it again! Clearlove is trying to get the Azir to open up the game, while Kanavi is trying to counter-gank Clearlove to open up the game. These two are really starting to peek at the screen and play the game like this???"

Miller clicked his tongue and couldn't help but say, "If the factory manager goes out this time, he'll definitely give away his own life. It's hard to guarantee that JD.com won't take this dragon. Let's see if the factory manager can realize that!"

"Still trying to catch her? Don't you want to give up? The Ice Maiden's location is starting to be exposed. Can't the Clearlove realize that the Troll is waiting behind us?"

The fans in the stands tensed up, staring intently at the screen, fearing that the Graves might make a rash move and squander their advantage.

The next moment, however, the Ice Maiden continued to act arrogantly and was ready to make a move, while Graves turned around and headed straight for the top lane, which was incredibly decisive!
"Oh oh oh!!"

"Oh my, Clearlove realized there was someone behind Toothpaste. No wonder Scout made several bold moves to try and engage, but Tsar not only wasn't afraid, he even brought his face to face. This was a very obvious signal to us outsiders. I didn't expect Clearlove to realize it and dodge it!"

"Wow, not only did the factory manager dodge that attack, but look what he's going to do next!"

As Miller finished speaking, everyone in the audience was immediately startled, realizing the unusual nature of Graves' recent movements. Meanwhile...

In Edg's team voice chat, Li Luo decisively said, "Xuanjun, get ready to fight, I'm coming to gank top, this wave is our rhythm!"

After saying that, Li Luo, controlling Graves, cautiously made his way to the top lane, scanning carefully. He also continued speaking to Scout:

"Scout, keep pretending I'm behind you, trying to go up and kill the Tsar. Keep your distance and don't give yourself away."

Scout nodded, understanding Li Luo's idea almost immediately, and was also shocked by Li Luo's ingenious plan.

From an outsider's perspective, JD Gaming's upper jungle area has extremely limited vision.

It wasn't just because everyone was fighting for the dragon, but also because Li Luo didn't help the top lane at all throughout the game. Zoom was careless!
"Is Graves going to gank top? Zoom's position is dangerous right now. He keeps trying to push the wave in, and now he's teleporting to the bottom lane to fight the dragon. This is terrible!"

"Then this team has a very good chance!" Miller's words were met with cheers from the audience.

"Wow, the factory manager has once again shown us his amazing skills!!"

"I'll camp your counter-gank! This game of wits is absolutely mind-blowing. If the top laner can get a kill, I think Kanavi might start questioning his life!"

When the doll saw the troll still standing in front of the Azir, seemingly patiently waiting for the Graves to gank, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, both junglers on both sides had excellent awareness in these two waves, but unfortunately, experience prevailed. Kanavi, as a rookie, never expected Clearlove to be so bold as to switch his target to the top lane. At the same time, Scout, the veteran actor, was very dedicated, completely fooling Clearlove."

"Toothpaste is probably still telling Kanavi that the factory manager is definitely behind them, so... the factory manager tricked two people in one fell swoop."

The cheers at the scene continued.

The director also cooperated by focusing the camera on the top lane.

However, how could such a completely unprepared gank possibly produce any amazing and spectacular plays?

How could the crocodile, who had practically pushed the lane under the tower, possibly escape with Graves flanking him?
A turtle in a jar!

Unconsciously, the three commentators thought of this word at this moment.

"Damn, why is Graves in my top lane? I'm done for. I pushed the lane too far. Wasn't Graves supposed to be in the mid lane?"

Seeing the Graves walk out from behind him, Zoom, the top laner, felt a chill run down his spine and blamed Toothpaste for spreading false information to fool his teammates.

"Huh? He's not in the mid lane??"

"??"

When they zoomed in and saw that Graves had indeed appeared in the top lane, both Kanavi and Yagao were stunned!

The two believed they had executed this move flawlessly and were confident they could counter-gank the opposing team.

Who would have thought this was a battle of wits with thin air?
But how could Scout dare to do that?

With this thought in mind, Toothpaste looked at Scout's movements again and immediately exclaimed that he had been tricked.

Scout's positioning was also very obvious, but unfortunately he was focused on luring out the Graves behind him and didn't think about the bigger picture.

"This wave is mine. They're on the fifth floor, we're on the first!"

Taking a deep breath, and looking at the message above that the crocodile had been killed, Toothpaste's face turned ashen.

"Oh dear, JD Gaming has really messed up their momentum this time. They've given Clearlove another chance to turn the tide. It looks like Clearlove is going to secure the Rift Herald. The key thing is, JD Gaming can't go for the dragon right now, or they'll definitely lose their top lane tower to Edg!"

This battle of wits between the two is a classic example.

In the end, Li Luo thought one step ahead and forcefully reversed the situation that had begun to turn passive, regaining the rhythm of the game.

At this point, Kanavi's Trundle had no choice but to go to the top lane to help Zoom relieve some pressure. Otherwise, if he were killed again by Graves and Aatrox, even if JD Gaming got the dragon, they would basically be out of the game.

Zoom's Renekton is the key to JD Gaming's mid-game dominance. Once Renekton underperforms, no one can stop Uzi's damage output.

However.
“Monster!” Ji Youyou uttered the two words.

"Clearlove took the Rift Herald and immediately recalled to base, heading to the bottom lane. He created another time difference with Kanavi. This is so frustrating, bro. Trundle has been wandering around for the past two waves, while Clearlove's rhythm has completely collapsed. This is another huge mistake by JD Gaming!"

The vision control on the top lane made it impossible for JD Gaming to guess Graves' current position. Furthermore, Aatrox's immediate teleport back to lane after recalling further gave Zoom, the opposing laner, a false sense of direction.
Is Edg in a hurry to kill another wave in the top lane?
Naturally, Kanavi had no choice but to farm in the upper half of the jungle to ensure he could provide timely support.

"I was wondering why Aatrox would teleport to the top lane this time. It seems like Edg is using the same old tricks they've been doing all spring split!"

"Distract the audience!"

"Yes! With Graves coming to bot lane this time, there's a very high chance of ganking the bot lane. At the very least, they can use the Rift Herald to push down the enemy bot lane and secure the dragon. Meanwhile, Kanavi's Trundle can only watch helplessly from the top side of the map. The difference is truly stark."

JDG, who had been arrogant for an entire season in the main timeline, had their rise extinguished before they even took off, because Li Luo noticed their tactical weaknesses.

When the Rift Herald appeared in the bottom lane, this time, all five members of JD Gaming felt a deep sense of powerlessness, as if they were falling behind the times.

This kind of elusive ability makes it impossible to guess what the opponent is doing. In this kind of competition, it's like fighting blindfolded. How can you possibly win?

"Let's give up the bottom lane and play it safe. We can only wait for the team fight," Green Hair said helplessly, ordering Loken to retreat.

However.
Ice Maiden suddenly disappeared between the first and second turrets in the bottom lane!

"Oh no! How did Scout get here?!"

The Tsar was still pushing the lane in the middle when he heard Green Hair's exclamation. He immediately turned his view and was dumbfounded!
"Scout has already ganked here. I have to say, JD Gaming's control over the bottom jungle is too weak. With the fruit, Lissandra can easily slip in. JD Gaming's bottom lane is going to be destroyed this time!"
