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

[The previous chapter had a minor bug, so I've revised it!]

As the minion wave was about to reach the top lane, Zhou Hanyang's Gragas left a ward with a trinket behind the red buff for Ivern, and then headed towards the top lane.

When the minion waves converged, Gragas followed the minion wave to the top lane.

After applying the passive to F6 and Red Buff, Ivern walked towards the Blue Buff area.

Scout placed his ward at the entrance of F6!

"Huh?" The director gave those two wards a huge close-up, proving EDG's tight defense of the jungle. Remember couldn't help but exclaim, "EDG's warding those two items...it doesn't seem very necessary, does it?"

Just as the words of the memory fell, Peanut's Sejuani quickly cleared the blue buff and jumped from the Baron pit to behind the red buff, which was clearly seen by the ward left by Gragas.

"Such an accurate prediction?" Guan Zeyuan exclaimed in utter surprise, "Attack predicted Peanut's prediction? In that case, Ivern is going to Sejuani's jungle?"

"EDG's prediction was amazing! They even predicted Sejuani's route!" Miller couldn't help but laugh when he saw that EDG hadn't suffered any losses.

While the director focused the camera on the jungler, the top laner also began to engage in a battle of wits.

Because Gragas was released later than Jayce, Jayce secured a spot in the mid-bush earlier.

This is the basic stance for a long-range fighter to use the bushes to pull the short-range fighter down.

Seeing this, Zhou Hanyang took the initiative to step forward and start auto-attacking the minion wave, giving Jayce space to auto-attack him.

Huni's Jayce immediately auto-attacked the barrel, but Zhou Hanyang, who was prepared, used his Q skill [Rolling Barrel] to throw it at Jayce's feet.

Huni instinctively walked towards the bushes, but after Jess took a step, Huni realized something was wrong.

Gragas' Q skill is thrown into the bushes!

If he enters the bush now, he'll get bombarded by Gragas' Q skill; but if he doesn't enter the bush, he'll be focused down by the red team's minions.

Countless thoughts flashed through Huni's mind, and his first instinct was to go into other bushes.

But as Jayce turned to walk towards the blue side bush, Gragas' Q skill, Rolling Barrel, exploded.

Gragas' Q skill has a slowing effect, so Jayce can't even enter the bushes when he's slowed down.

If he continues to rely on positioning and maneuvering, he will be targeted by ranged minions for at least one round, and the minion wave will be completely spread out.

With no other option, Huni could only use his Q skill, "Electric Surge," on the Gragas. Then, while switching to hammer form to increase his armor and magic resistance, he used his Q skill, "Sky Leap," to smash the minions chasing him.

The moment Jayce used his Q skill, Gragas hid behind the minion wave, which was exactly what Jayce wanted.

The purpose was to hit the minions with the Q skill later, so that the area of ​​effect could successfully reach the Gragas.

However, Zhou Hanyang had already seen through Huni's thoughts. The moment he hid behind the minion wave, he took a step back to create distance.

Jayce's skill combo naturally secured him the right to reach level 2 first.

"Huh? Jayce in the top lane still has the advantage, he got lane priority and reached level 2 first!" Miller was a little surprised: "But Gragas also has healing abilities, so it doesn't seem like a big problem for now!"

The problem the commentators didn't realize was that the minion wave was pushing too fast.

Before the second wave of minions even arrived, the first wave of minions was about to be wiped out by Gragas.

Jayce's R transformation takes a full 7 seconds in the early game, so if he doesn't land his Q on the Gragas, the hammer-form Jayce is completely helpless against it.

After Huni finished that fight, he realized that he had made a mistake in handling the minion wave.

After a moment's thought, he decided to go all in and continued to push the lane with auto-attacks, intending to send the minion wave directly into the Gragas's turret during the second wave.

Otherwise, if the third wave of cannon minions gets stuck in front of the Barrel's tower, then dealing with the subsequent pushback will be extremely troublesome.

After Jayce started pushing the lane, he naturally got the first chance to level up to level 2.

After Gragas' Q skill was off cooldown, Zhou Hanyang used it to clear out two melee minions.

As for the third melee minion, it was because the minion wave was spread out and it was impossible to last hit it, but it still gained experience.

The moment Jayce reached level 2, he saw Gragas standing with the minions and immediately used his Q on Gragas, since the cooldown of his hammer form Q skill was ready!

If you land a Q on the Gragas, you can unleash a combo on the Gragas, and then switch to cannon form to unleash another combo on the Gragas.

Seeing Jayce charging towards him, Zhou Hanyang controlled the Gragas to move upwards, creating distance between himself and the minion wave.

This resulted in the Gragas being out of range of the minion wave when Jayce used his Q on him.

After successfully landing a Q on the Gragas, Jayce auto-attacked the Gragas once, then used his E skill to knock the Gragas away. He then switched to his cannon form and unleashed another QE-enhanced cannon at the Gragas!

This exchange of health consumed more than a third of Gragas's health.

Huni's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile.

That's it? That's it?

Jayce immediately began aggressively pushing the lane against the minions.

Gragas waited a few seconds until his Q skill cooldown was ready again, then threw it at the feet of the minion wave once more.

At this moment, the red team's second wave of three melee units has just been killed, and the blue team's minion wave needs to continue advancing.

Gragas' Q skill exploded, killing two melee minions and one ranged minion, and also slowing down the advance of the blue team's minions.

Seeing this, Huni didn't think much of it. Instead, he took advantage of the moment when Gragas used his Q skill to steal a hit from Gragas.

But Huni's smile quickly faded.

When the third wave of minions arrived, the minion wave was just blocked in front of the Gragas' tower.

Huni instantly realized Zhou Hanyang's sinister intentions.

Although Gragas was at a disadvantage in these two exchanges, he was clearly trading his own health for minion waves to maintain the balance of power.

The third wave was a cannon minion wave, and Jayce wasn't even level three yet, so he had no way to deal with this wave of minions in a short time.

When the minion wave is blocked in front of the tower, Zhou Hanyang can use the minion wave of the siege minion wave to block it and safely last-hit minions under the tower.

As long as Jayce stands with the minions, Gragas will use his Q skill to harass both Jayce and the minion wave.

Because they failed to push completely into the Barrel's turret, the Barrel's fourth wave of minions arrived on the lane earlier than the blue team's minions.

With both sides pulling back and forth, the minion wave gradually began to push back.

At this point, Gragas had already used his passive ability to restore his health to more than two-thirds.

On the other hand, Jayce's health was also reduced to about two-thirds after taking several of Gragas's Q skills.

The Jayce of S7 is still far superior to the Jayce of later generations in all aspects, and Gragas doesn't have Comet to improve his sustain.

Otherwise, Jayce's health would definitely be below half at this moment.

Zhou Hanyang's strategy is a classic early-game lane-clearing tactic. In this game, EDG's jungler was Ivern, and if a different jungler came to gank, Jayce would be completely destroyed.

Gragas, who can push lanes slowly, has an advantage in minion waves and can reach level 4 earlier than Jayce.

Huni and Zhou Hanyang were both perfectly aware of this.

So Huni knew he had to do something. He had been in hammer form for a long time, and immediately used his Q skill to hammer the melee minions, preparing to balance the minion wave.

He knew that if he attacked Gragas, he would definitely be knocked down by Gragas's E skill, so he chose to Q minions.

The director was clearly prepared, switching the camera to the top lane the moment the fight broke out.

"A fight has broken out in the top lane, and Gragas has finally chosen to give up the minion wave." Guan Zeyuan exclaimed, "Gragas' E skill interrupted Jayce's Q skill! Judging from the way both sides are acting, is this going to go all the way?"

With the commentator's reminder, the previously indifferent audience members all held their breath and listened intently.

Exclamations of surprise rang out from the audience.

Zhou Hanyang was prepared. The moment Jayce used his Q, he used his E skill to knock Jayce down from the air and stun him.

Zhou Hanyang did not use his EQ skills together to deplete Jayce's health.

The key to playing Gragas is to use your abilities slowly to gradually whittle down the opponent's health; never try to engage in a one-shot fight.

Jayce instinctively wanted to escape into the bushes, so Zhou Hanyang threw his Q skill into the bushes, then activated the second part of the Q to explode, reducing Jayce's health to below half, slowing Jayce down, and chasing after him.

Finished!

Seeing the barrels chasing after him, Huni felt a chill and realized something was wrong.

He immediately tried to use his E skill to knock Gragas away, but Gragas just followed Jayce. Whenever Jayce tried to get close to Gragas, Gragas would immediately turn around.

Huni wanted Gragas to turn around; his feigned attack on Gragas was just to stall until Gragas's Q skill slow effect wore off.

He immediately and decisively switched to cannon mode, and at the same time used QE to consume the barrel.

Huni's Jayce is quite skilled; in this play, he used a vertical cannon to try and use the speed boost to pull away!

Gragas activated his W skill, reducing the damage from Jayce's QE enhanced cannon.

Jayce gained a speed boost, and Gragas definitely couldn't catch up with him if he tried to chase him, but Gragas' E skill only had a 7-second cooldown.

The advantage of not having a direct EQ combo becomes apparent.

After some back and forth, Gragas's E skill cooldown was ready.

Gragas used his E skill to collide with Jayce, and then used his W skill to slam Jayce hard.

Jayce's health was now down to about one-third.

The barrel still has more than half health left!

Jayce, with the barrel on his face, activated his W skill and auto-attacked the barrel.

Huni knew that at this moment, all of Gragas's skills were on cooldown, except for his Q skill, which was almost ready. He absolutely could not panic.

Faced with Jayce's auto-attack, Gragas also used a close-range auto-attack!

Jayce auto-attacked Gragas three times, and Gragas auto-attacked Jayce twice. Then Jayce's ultimate skill cooldown was ready.

Jayce switched to hammer form to gain increased resistances and activated his W skill to continue his auto-attacks against Gragas!

Facing the hammer-form Jayce, Zhou Hanyang naturally couldn't continue with auto-attacks, so he immediately used his Q skill at Jayce's feet.

Jayce's Q skill has a longer cooldown than Gragas's Q skill. Faced with Gragas's Q skill, Huni decisively used Jayce's Flash.

hum! ! !

After using Flash, Jayce Flashed right in front of Gragas, and continued to auto-attack Gragas while his W was close to Gragas's face.

Immediately after, Jayce's Q skill was ready again, and he slammed it hard into Gragas's face.

Huni knew that Gragas's W and E skills were not on cooldown at this time.

After Jayce's barrage of attacks, Gragas's health was reduced to about one-fifth.

"Jayce flashed to dodge a crucial Q skill from Gragas! Gragas needs to flash again at this health level!!!" Remember's voice was filled with anxiety: "Otherwise, he might get one-shotted by Jayce!!!"

Gragas immediately created distance between himself and Jayce to prevent Jayce from knocking him away with his E skill.

Seeing that he had gained an advantage through the exchange of health, the last bit of health in the Gragas' body seemed to have vanished completely.

Huni's eyes were filled with a bloodshot excitement.

R—Mercury's Cannon!!!

Use your flashbang, then die!

Jayce unleashed a QE shot at the fleeing Gragas!

Just as Huni expected, Gragas chose to use Flash in response to Jayce's QE combo!

However, instead of flashing in any other direction, it directly passed through Jayce's QE and flashed right onto Jayce's face.

Ok?

Huni was slightly taken aback!

Jayce immediately activated his W skill and began auto-attacking Jayce.

Strengthen AWA!

Gragas finally used his W skill!

The W skill had actually been ready for a long time, but Zhou Hanyang had been holding onto it without using it.

Although W negated Jayce's damage, Gragas's health still dropped by one unit, to less than 200 points!

At this moment, Gragas finally used his E skill, which was already off cooldown, to knock Jayce off balance and stun him, while also dealing damage with his W skill.

At the same time, he threw his Q skill, which had just finished its cooldown, at Jayce's feet and ran towards the bush.

Real men never look back to see explosions!

Boom! ! !

Jayce's remaining health was completely depleted.

FirstBlood!!

First blood!!!

EDG's Attack (Gragas) has killed SKT's Huni (Last Will)!!!
