Chapter 35: Unsolvable Split Push, A Powerful Victory [Please Read On]

Abu wasn't saying he wanted to change EDG's top laner or anything; in his opinion, Mouse was actually quite good.

It at least fits EDG's style well.

Abu was simply driven by curiosity and wanted to learn more about [TopKing].

After all, he is now the manager of EDG, so he will naturally pay more attention to promising young players.

Of course, the premise for paying attention is that this person is not Korean.

EDG currently has two Korean players: Scout and Zet.

These two are EDG's two carries, and their positions are currently very secure; they are guaranteed starting spots and there's no way they'll be moved.

According to the LPL's foreign player policy, a team can only field a maximum of two Korean players at the same time during a match.

So, when Abu noticed a top laner, his first reaction was to find out if the person was Korean.

If it's a Korean, there's no need to pay attention for now; even if you bring them over, they won't be able to participate.

After hearing Meiko say that [TopKing] wasn't Korean, Abu nodded and didn't say anything more.

After not hearing Abu's voice for a while, Meiko put her headphones back on and focused on her ranked game.

After Zhou Dian solo-killed AJ twice, AJ's Jax stayed under the tower and refused to come out.

If you, Camille, want to control the lane, then control it all you want. I just need to make sure I don't die.

The reason for supporting AJ's way of playing the game is that his teammates are gaining an increasingly significant advantage.

In other words, Zhou Dian's teammates are at a growing disadvantage.

First, the enemy jungler ganked the bottom lane and wiped out Meiko and the AD carry.

Then, his mid laner got solo killed again!
When the enemy's mid and bot lanes get going, the top laner is often powerless to do anything about it.

This is an inherent limitation of the top lane position.

The top lane has the lowest impact in the early stages of the game.

Often, the top laners are still fiercely battling each other in the top lane, and one of their bases might be on the verge of being destroyed.

However, low influence does not mean no influence.

There is a difference!

And the differences are significant!

Faced with the current unfavorable situation on the field, Zhou Dian, as the top laner, naturally has his own way of winning the game.

Jax had already been crushed by Camille, so Zhou Dian stopped trying to build Trinity Force.

After recalling to base and building Tiamat, Camille returned to lane.

Zhou Dian stopped controlling the lane and started pushing it directly.

With Tiamat, Camille's wave clear speed is greatly improved.

Soon, the minion wave was pushed to Jax's tower.

Next, Zhou Dian directly controlled Camille to walk under the enemy tower, without even glancing at Jax under the tower, and arrived between the red team's top lane first and second towers, intercepting a wave of red team minions.

Camille starts cutting off the minion wave!

Seeing this, AJ laughed and said, "Hehe, she's getting anxious! This Camille is getting anxious!"

"He must have gotten really frustrated seeing his teammates keep dying, so he stopped controlling the minion wave and ran over to cut off the lane!"

"But I'm not in a hurry. You can cut off the minion wave if you want, I'll just farm under the tower, it's fine!"

Of course you're not in a hurry, just lie down and you're done!

[Look at you, Hook, so smug! You got solo killed multiple times and still think you're the hero?]

【Face! 】

[This is the top lane in League of Legends. What's the point of dominating the enemy top laner? You still have to rely on the mid and bot lanes!]

That's why good teamwork is more important than good playing style!

【.】

Unaware that the leisurely AJ had quickly cleared a wave of minions between the red team's top lane tier 1 and tier 2 towers and then disappeared into the jungle.

Jax finished off the tower's attack, but AJ still hadn't seen Camille appear. So he quickly called "miss!"

AJ had just sent a warning signal to his mid laner when Camille used her hook (E) to pass through the wall from F6 and arrive at the red team's mid lane turret.

Then, Hextech Ultimatum (R) was cast, locking AJ's mid laner into the hexagonal cage.

Then, Zhou Dian's mid laner followed up, and the two of them killed the enemy mid laner.

Camille's sudden attack from the side was too unexpected.

After the red team's mid laner died, the mid tower was left undefended for a short period of time.

At this moment, Zhou Dian's jungler also arrived in the mid lane.

He didn't know why he came to the mid lane; it just happened out of nowhere.

Just in time!

With the help of the jungler and Camille, the three of them managed to push down the red team's mid-lane tower in a very tight fashion before the enemy could defend.

With the enemy losing their mid-lane tower, Zhou Dian's team instantly turned the tide.

Of course, Zhou Dian's side is still at a significant disadvantage.

But then, Zhou Dian's Camille unleashed an unstoppable split push, leaving his opponent dizzy and disoriented.

The key point is that we took down the enemy's mid-lane tower earlier.

In this way, Zhou Dian's team can extend their vision deep into the enemy's jungle.

Meiko was very cooperative; when Camille was pushing the lane, Karma would place protective wards nearby.

Therefore, the red team couldn't defend against Camille with just one person.

If the two of them can only stick to Camille's path and do nothing else, they'll be at a huge disadvantage in a head-on confrontation.

Add one more person, and the three of them go to catch Camille, but they still can't catch her.

Each time, her movements were detected in advance, and then Camille used the high mobility of her grappling hook (E) to escape.

There was even a moment when the enemy AD carry tried to gank Camille in the bottom lane to help his teammates.

However, while crossing the jungle, he was caught and killed by Zhou Dian.

After eliminating the enemy AD carry, and with two more opponents still in the bottom half of the map, Zhou Dian's team secured the Baron Nashor.

At this point, the situation on the field was completely reversed!

Zhou Dian's teammates in this game were all quite good, and they played very well after the situation turned favorable.

In the end, Zhou Dian led his teammates to victory in this ranked match.

Camille didn't die once in this game and even got a godlike streak!

When the red team's base crystal explodes.

In Meiko's live stream, the chat refresh rate skyrocketed!

[Meiko was right from the start; this game was a total free win!]

[Is this what you call being carried? Wasn't my team's farm crucial in this game? If Karma hadn't done such good vision control, would Camille have been able to push lanes so comfortably?]

Yes, yes, you're absolutely right! I shouldn't have discussed games with you fangirls!

Wow, that Camille is amazing! Is this the true way to play Camille?!

[I feel like he's better than Mouse. Mouse just plays Maokai in matches and gets beaten up in the top lane!]

Come on, Mouse is an LPL champion top laner, don't just compare him to anyone!

[Wow, the LPL champion top laner is amazing! How did he perform at last year's World Championship? He got wrecked by the Brazilian wildcard top laner, you know?]

[Waaaaah, when will we see Camille like this in an EDG match?!]

[What are you thinking? Playing top lane for EDG, you'd never be able to pick Camille in your entire life!]

Haha, that's the truth!
