You promised a top lane tutorial, but you're just using Worlds as material for your videos?

Chapter 162: The first time I've seen someone teleport into the enemy tower during the laning phase!

Mouse didn't start out as a top laner.

It's just that EDG was in a special situation at the time and didn't have a top laner available, so they temporarily pulled him in to fill in.

Anyway, I just play tanks, top lane, withstand pressure, and wait for team fights.

Surprisingly, the results were quite good.

With this, Mouse secured his position as EDG's main top laner.

Therefore, Mouse can't really be considered a truly experienced "veteran" top laner.

Naturally, they also lack the keen insight that veteran top laners possess.

Replace them with some experienced and sharp top laners.

When the cannon pushed a large number of minions to the tower, but didn't touch the barrels, instead it set off explosive sparks on the tower.

You should have realized what Xiaopao was up to by now.

Even when encountering some top-tier top laners with an exceptionally keen sense of opportunity.

You can probably understand why LGD picked Tristana.

The purpose of picking Tristana is to ignore Gragas and push towers quickly, forcibly accelerating the game's pace.

This prevented EDG's scaling lineup from having any chance to develop.

Even the slowest mouse response.

Seeing that the little cannon was starting to disconnect, and then looking up at their own top lane tower which had clearly lost a small amount of health.

Mouse also figured out Zhou Dian's intention in playing Tristana in the top lane.

However, even if he knew what Zhou Dian wanted to do...

So what?

Gragas can only stay under the tower and farm minions.

I watched helplessly as the cannon cut off the enemy's supply line.

After a long and arduous journey, the numerous minions under the tower were finally wiped out by the Gragas and the tower itself.

Because the cannon can dive the tower to cut off the minion wave.

The next wave of LGD minions has already reached EDG's top lane tower.

Gragas can only stay under the tower to farm minions; he can't go anywhere else.

Even if he abandons the minions under the tower and runs to find the turret, he still can't keep the turret.

The little cannon can jump away with a rocket jump (W).

One man, Gragas, has no way to deal with Little Cannon.

If Mouse doesn't want the little cannon to disconnect so easily...

At this point, only the mid laner or jungler can help him out.

Mouse glances at the minimap.

Scout's Karma in the mid lane is engaged in a fierce laning phase against LeBlanc.

Only a madman would abandon the minion wave and run to the top lane to find Tristana.

Meanwhile, the Graves who loves loli has also arrived in the lower jungle.

At this point, it's obviously impossible to run back to the top lane.

Mouse could only honestly farm minions under the tower.

He could almost see what his barrel would do in the next ten minutes.

They can only do one thing.

That means being locked under the tower to farm minions.

This is too uncomfortable!
However, the discomfort only lasted for a short while.

Mouse thought about it again and realized that playing like this on the road actually seemed pretty good.

Anyway, I won't die, and I won't fall behind in last-hitting.

So if I went on the road, I didn't lose!

He didn't lose to Zhou Dian in the laning phase.

Even if EDG loses this match.

The blame shouldn't fall on my shoulders, right?
The match had only just begun, and Mouse was already trying to comfort himself.

But in reality, that's not the case at all.

That's not what the audience thinks at all.

When the director switched the camera to the top lane and focused on the Tristana who was disconnected between EDG's first and second top lane towers.

The live stream chat immediately became lively.

[Wait, what's going on? It's only been a short time since the game started, how come Zhou Shen is already this advanced?]

Even a small cannon can disconnect?

I was wondering why Zhou Shen wasn't playing Alchemist this game!

[Zhou Shen probably has bad eyesight; he saw his side backwards and thought he was on the red side!]

Haha, you know how to explain!

Where's Mouse? Dead, huh? Letting the other team play like this, they have no shame!

[To be honest, it's a bit of an exaggeration; someone comes to your house and poops right at the start of the game!]

[What's the big deal? Isn't that what EDG's B team is like? Playing top lane for EDG means you have absolutely no rights! It's just getting beaten up anyway, I could do that too!]

Have you guys any shame? Mouse got completely dominated in his lane, and you're blaming EDG for that?

[Indeed, with his skill level, even if you play him as the core player, it won't work! What does this have to do with EDG? We EDG fans haven't even complained about his skill!]

[Haha, this is the true face of a pig's offspring! I'll say it right now, even if Zhou Shen went to play top lane for EDG, he'd be ruined!]

【I agree, EDG is your mom's top lane graveyard!】

【.】

Mouse was right about one thing.

He really shouldn't be blamed.

Because there's no need to divide it anymore.

He's never been able to get rid of the blame.

In the eyes of EDG fans, he has an original sin.

Or rather, all fandoms in the esports world are the same.

Food is the original sin.

Fans in the entertainment industry often have a very distorted, binary way of thinking.

Even if you've achieved honors, and played exceptionally poorly in some matches, "a great scholar will always be there to defend you."

If you're bad at it, you might be the one to blame for clogged toilets at the club.

After cutting off a wave of minions.

Zhou Dian controlled the Tristana to retreat into EDG's jungle and then pressed the B key.

The barrel hasn't even finished its tower knife yet.

There's definitely no way they could interfere with him.

After successfully returning to the fountain, Zhou Dian first bought a Kisheas fragment.

Kirsheis Shards are essential components for crafting the Electric Knife and the Cannon.

The panel attribute increases attack speed.

The passive ability allows the character to charge up. Once fully charged, the next basic attack deals additional magic damage.

Zhou Dian bought this Kishes fragment, naturally to synthesize the Electric Blade first.

The powerful wave-pushing ability of the electric knife is exactly what Zhou Dian needs.

Even though the cannon's pushing speed isn't slow.

However, with the addition of the electric blade, the slightly faster pushing speed can also bring about a change in rhythm.

During this period, marksmen who went for a critical strike build would basically need two attack speed items.

Generally, you can choose two out of the following three: electric knife, cannon, and hurricane.

Zhou Dian naturally planned to build two attack speed items in this game.

The Statikk Shiv and Infinity Edge are undoubtedly the first two major items for Tristana in this game.

However, artillery should be the third or fourth item you build. The exact order depends on whether you build armor-piercing bows or not.

Since Tristana already has her Q skill which increases attack speed, there's no need to rush to build double attack speed items.

Moreover, LGD intends to finish this game quickly.

It's possible that we won't be able to wait until Tristana gets her second attack speed item.

The reason for prioritizing the Kircheis fragments, rather than crafting the other component needed to synthesize the Electric Knife – the Yellow Fork.

Of course, it's because the passive magic damage of the Kirsheas Shards can be applied to defensive towers.

This is Zhou Dian's starting point for considering everything.

The goal is to take down EDG's top lane tower as quickly as possible.

So, with the remaining money he had, he bought another short sword with increased attack speed.

Zhou Dian immediately took control of the small cannon and headed out.

They didn't even bring a true sight.

Actually, Xiaopao still had enough money to buy a true sight ward.

But Zhou Dian didn't buy it.

Instead, they chose to save the money.

Everything was done to expedite the activation of the electrosurgical unit.

The top and jungle duo of Gragas and Graves in EDG.

Zhou Dian was very confident that his little cannon could not be killed.

What kind of real eyes should I buy?

Why do I need a true eye?

No need!
Just push it!

After purchasing the equipment, Zhou Dian immediately used the teleportation function to log in.

If it were the enemy Mouse, they would never use that teleport.

Because Zhou Dian cut off a wave of minions before returning to base.

The current minion wave situation in the top lane.

Even if we walk up, we won't lose a single soldier.

Let alone a pure team-oriented top laner like Mouse.

Other top laners would also generally not use that teleport.

Why use teleportation if we won't lose any troops?
Isn't that a waste?
However, Zhou Dian's thinking is different from that of a typical top laner.

Going up there will certainly not result in any loss of soldiers.

But it will cause delays.

The somewhat sarcastic saying "use it early, cooldown early" can sometimes be quite applicable to the Summoner Spell Teleport.

When you're on the road, you don't conserve your teleportation; you use it whenever you have one.

It often happens that you use teleport twice, but the other side only uses it once.

Then you've made a profit.

If he doesn't teleport directly at this point, the minion wave will be pushed over by the Gragas, and it will take him some time to push it back.

And some variables may arise.

What's the point of picking Tristana for top lane?

Isn't it all about pushing down towers?

In Zhou Dian's eyes, anyway.

For the first ten minutes of the game, he had only one objective.

That's EDG's top lane tower.

Nothing else matters to him.

Since that's the case, let's teleport up quickly and, while Graves is still in the bottom half of the map, let's keep attacking the enemy's top tower.

Just ten seconds ago.

PYL's Thresh went to the river to provide vision and ran into EDG's jungler Graves.

After arriving in the lower jungle, Ai Luoli didn't farm the jungle camps first, but went straight to the lower river.

I want to take down the river crab first.

Unfortunately, I ran into Thresh.

Because EDG's bot lane duo was constantly pressured under their tower by LGD's bot lane duo in the first few minutes of the game.

With no support available in the bot lane, Ailoli didn't dare to directly confront Thresh and fight the river crab.

He had no choice but to control the Graves and return to his own blue buff area.

The Graves stepped on the blast fruit behind his own blue buff and bounced into the blue buff camp.

It was empty inside.

The blue buff being stolen was something Ai Luoli had expected.

If the enemy Elise doesn't steal the blue buff when they have lane priority in the bottom lane, then she's really bad!
The male gunner took two steps forward, preparing to scavenge the Swamp Frog.

However, the place where the Swamp Frog was located was also empty.

Blanch!
The toad was stolen too.

Lolita is furious!
I got first blood myself, and I even got a jungle monster as a bonus!
Most junglers who play Graves feel worse when they lose jungle monsters than when they kill them.

On the other side, Graves and Thresh had just met face to face.

Eimy immediately pressed the Tab key to check Graves' CS (creep score).

By analyzing the number of last hits, Eimy quickly deduced Graves' previous jungle clearing route.

And he told Zhou Dian about it.

After hearing Eimy's description, Zhou Dian understood the situation and immediately pressed the teleportation button.

At this moment, under EDG's top lane turret.

There's one last blue team minion left.

The barrel spent over a minute resetting the tower, and it's finally almost done.

Mouse thought to himself, "Finally, I can push the top lane minions outwards a bit."

The turret fired a red beam of light, striking the blue team's ranged minion.

The soldier still had a small amount of health left.

This ranged minion didn't use a basic attack before the barrel.

Therefore, after being hit by the turret, the Gragas cannot be killed by a single basic attack.

However, Mouse had already pressed the W key.

The barrel used Drunken Frenzy (W) to take a sip of alcohol, increasing the damage of its next basic attack.

Just as the barrel was raised in his hand, about to smash it down...

A blue teleportation vortex swirled around the low-health blue team ranged minion.

The large wooden barrel in the barrel's hand smashed into the low-health soldier.

The soldier did not lose any health.

The teleportation forcibly locked my health.

The OB (observer) was consistently slow to react in this match.

This time, the observer's view was switched to the top lane the instant the little cannon used its teleport.

On the big screen, it showed Zhou Dian's Tristana teleporting to a low-health minion under EDG's tower, and then Gragas using W to smash the minion without taking any damage.

The barrel with its large belly looked rather dull standing next to the teleportation beam.

A commotion immediately erupted in the audience.

There were sounds of discussion.

There was laughter.

This scene was indeed very entertaining.

In the commentary box.

Wang Duoduo couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and said, suppressing a laugh:
"Is this how Zhou Shen uses teleport? This is the first time I've ever seen someone teleport into the enemy tower during the laning phase!"
