Mingkai, if you're this cowardly, you should just go home and raise pigs.

After securing the dragon, EDG's bot lane, jungle, and support went back to base to replenish their supplies.

After replenishing, the excavator didn't go to the top lane to farm jungle camps as usual, but instead went to the bottom lane, clearly intending to enter Gragas' blue buff area.

The last blue buff that Gragas had was stolen by Rek'Sai, so Rek'Sai knows the exact respawn time of the blue buff.

NB was helpless against EDG's invasion by their excavator, and had no choice but to give up their second blue buff.

Corki is a late-game champion, and the second blue buff should almost always be given to him. Without the blue buff, Corki's wave clear speed in the mid lane will be greatly reduced, and the mid lane will always be pushed by Taliyah.

While stealing the blue buff, Mingkai and Zhou Hanyang began discussing their next move: "The plane will go back in 8 minutes to get the bomb pack. Can you create a TP advantage in the top lane?"

"..." Zhou Hanyang glanced at Mingkai, then slowly nodded and said, "Since my good son is so sincere in asking me, I will naturally grant my good son's small request!"

Rumble is a champion with no mobility skills, so he's rather clumsy!

It's very troublesome if you get ganked by the jungler; if you're caught out in the first wave, you'll have to use Flash, and you'll die in the second wave.

In addition, this version of Rumble was relatively weak in the early game, far less powerful than the Comet Rumble of later generations, so Zhou Hanyang did not play too aggressively in the early game.

The main point is that as long as the crocodile doesn't mess up, if he fights Rumble in a place where there are no minions, it's actually very difficult for Rumble to solo kill the crocodile in the early game.

"Screw you." Mingkai said irritably before returning to his own jungle.

NB was completely helpless against the excavator's attempt to steal the blue buff.

Neither the plane nor the big mouth has any combat power. The plane's explosive pack and blue buff spawned almost simultaneously, and he simply didn't have time to defend against the blue buff.

At this moment, Zhou Hanyang suddenly became very aggressive in the top lane.

Rambo was positioned quite far away, not putting much pressure on the crocodile.

Rumble's E skill has a range of 850, not to mention his Q skill, which has a range of 600.

The crocodile's Q skill only has a range of 450, so if you don't use a dash, you definitely won't be able to hit Rumble.

The crocodile's E skill, like its Q skill, has a range of only 450.

The combined range of the two skills is only 900, which is slightly longer than Rumble's E skill.

Theoretically speaking, as long as Rambo maintains the correct distance, it would be very difficult for the crocodile to touch him.

The crocodile must use the first part of its E skill to dodge minions, and the second part of its E skill to get close to Rumble before it can use its Q skill to deal damage.

But theory is just theory. In reality, it's very difficult for anyone to perfectly control such details down to the level of 50.

When the level was relatively low, Zhou Hanyang would basically stand at a relatively far distance and throw harpoons. Then, the crocodile would use a set of skills to send the minion wave over, and Zhou Hanyang would use the high-temperature Q skill to clear the minion wave.

But at this moment, Rambo acted out of character and took the initiative to step forward.

Use the outermost part of the Q skill to roast the crocodile.

If the crocodile uses its Q skill directly, it won't be able to harass Rumble. To use Q, it must use its E skill!

When NB's V player saw that Zhou Hanyang was finally willing to fight him, he immediately used his E skill to pass through the minions and then used his Q skill.

He didn't use the second part of his E skill to get close to Rumble because if he were to fight him in one combo, even if Renekton won, it would be a Pyrrhic victory, and he would easily attract ganks from Taliyah and Rek'Sai!

V thinks this EWQ is a sure thing.

What V never expected was that when the crocodile started with his E skill, Rumble activated his W skill to accelerate and increase his temperature.

Rumble's W skill is affected by temperature; when the temperature is high, the acceleration is also increased.

Rambo used the speed boost from his W ability to back away and create space.

The crocodile's normal attack range is 125. After using W, its attack range will increase by 50, the same as the attack range increase effect of Jax's W skill.

The distance between the crocodile and Rambo is 600. After the crocodile uses its E ability, it is 150 away from Rambo.

Therefore, V immediately prepared to use his W skill to bite Rumble.

Rumble pulled backward the instant the crocodile used its E skill.

A Teemo's size is 50 units, and Rumble's two steps back is exactly 50 units.

The distance between the crocodile and Rumble was 25, which meant that the crocodile's W could not reach Rumble, and he could only use his Q skill to harass Rumble, while also harassing the blue team's minions.

At this point, the crocodile had already disappeared into the blue team's minion wave, no longer blocked by the red team's minions.

Rumble used his E skill, a harpoon, to hit the crocodile, and then used his Q skill, which was almost at red temperature, to chase and roast the crocodile.

The crocodile was slowed down and had to use the second part of his E skill to create distance.

When playing Renekton against Rumble, you should generally save the second part of your E skill to escape, rather than using it to get close.

Otherwise, if they can't beat him, Rambo will chase them down and roast them alive like a charcoal-grilled crocodile.

Rumble was only 200 yards away from the crocodile, and was slowed down by the crocodile's E skill.

The E skill can only move a distance of 450 yards.

Due to the deceleration effect, Rambo caught up with them instantly and continued grilling them.

Before the crocodile entered the minion wave, Rumble's E skill, the harpoon, hit the crocodile again. While using his Q skill to whittle down the minion wave, he chased after the crocodile and roasted it for a while.

However, Rumble's Q skill duration soon ended, so he turned around and retreated.

Although the crocodile's Q skill was about to be off cooldown, he couldn't touch Rumble.

After this attack, V, who originally thought Zhou Hanyang was nothing special, was instantly stunned.

Even his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

If it were any other player, he would think it was a coincidence.

But the person wielding Rambo on the other side is Zhou Hanyang, so this tug-of-war could not possibly be a coincidence.

This exchange of blows resulted in a huge loss for the Renekton, leaving him with no choice but to let Rumble push the minion wave into the Renekton's turret.

After pushing the minion wave under the tower, Rumble even used his high-temperature Q skill to clear the next wave of minions, while constantly using his E skill to harass Renekton.

Because the excavator was putting too much pressure on the bottom half of the map, the Gragas were basically staying in the bottom lane to protect Kog'Maw and let him farm.

Rumble could now push the lane aggressively and pressure the enemy without worry, until after two waves of minions, the Renekton was completely worn down to low health by Rumble.

Rambo was finally satisfied and returned home to the city.

Meanwhile, the crocodile can only honestly clear the minion wave under the tower, and then use TP to teleport out and farm the wave.

[I saw some readers debating who has the advantage or disadvantage in a fight between Crocodile and Rumble... so I wrote this chapter!]

[Pssst... let me tell you a secret, the author is Crocodile Bro! He reached Challenger in Season 5 thanks to his weapons and Crocodile!]

[Except for the version used in last year's World Championship, in every other version of Rumble, if he encounters a slightly stronger top laner, he will definitely be pushed back before level 3!]
