League: Educating LPL is my duty.
Chapter 40 Considering the Next Game
Miller watched Condi leave and said with some emotion, "This Fiora pushed the lane, and although she didn't get any kills, Clearlove is going to take three jungle camps. EDG already has an early advantage. You can only say that this is brought about by strong individual skills."
Faced with this Fiora who had overwhelming lane dominance, Condi had no choice but to come up to protect his teammates. Also, because the top lane had absolutely no lane priority, he didn't dare even glance at the enemy's blue buff area. By the time he arrived at the bottom side of the map and found his jungle camps had been stolen, it was too late.
Su Xiaoyan nodded and said, "This can be seen as a direct manifestation of the advantage that teammates can give to the jungler when they have lane priority."
As the fourth wave of minions was about to arrive, Li Chen quickly pushed the minion wave under the tower, then returned to the bush and pressed the B key.
This was a recall time he created himself, allowing him to go back to base, buy a Long Sword, and return to lane without losing minions.
However, Poppy is out of luck. This wave of minions is too large, almost a whole wave of cannon minions. Before Poppy finishes clearing the minion wave under the tower, the fourth wave of minions will definitely enter the red team's tower.
In other words, Poppy can only return to base after clearing the fourth wave of minions. Moreover, the red team's fourth wave of minions will intersect with the blue team's fifth wave of minions in front of the blue team's first tower, which is commonly known as being "stuck in lane".
At this point, Poppy can only teleport back online; otherwise, she will lose the experience of at least six to nine minions.
957 also noticed this, and he quickly sped up clearing minions, trying to send his fourth wave of minions under the blue team's tower as much as possible.
However, it was clear that its wave clear speed was not fast enough. By the time Fiora arrived with the fifth wave of minions, the minions on both sides met near a bush.
At this moment, Poppy used her teleportation ability, and Li Chen quickly attacked the minions, reaching level four just before Poppy landed.
Taking advantage of her own minion wave advantage, Poppy fearlessly challenged Fiora to a duel, and Li Chen naturally wouldn't shy away from the fight.
It's the same old trick: stay close to Poppy, and the moment Poppy uses her Q, use your own Q skill to dodge and deal damage.
957 saw Fiora use her Q and immediately used his W, but he failed to control Fiora.
Actually, Li Chen used a small detail in this move: he used a super short Q at close range, almost stopping at the edge of Poppy's Q skill.
Poppy cannot activate W while casting Q. Even if she presses W, it will only activate after the Q skill's animation ends. Therefore, as long as the timing is right, there is no possibility of being interrupted.
Have you failed to learn it?
With almost all his skills depleted, 957 was in a difficult situation, but he had no way out.
If we don't push the minion wave forward when our minions are at their strongest, Li Chen will definitely control the minion wave completely once he retreats a few steps. At that point, there won't even be a chance to fight back with the minions.
So 957 decided to fight to the death. Even if his skills missed, he could still fight with the help of the minions' damage. At this point, his condition was almost the same as Fiora's. The final decisive move for both sides was the battle between Fiora's W and Poppy's E skills.
Poppy's second QCD quickly improved, but he didn't shoot. Instead, he waited, knowing that as long as Li Chen had Q, it would be very difficult for him to hit it.
Four hundred health, three hundred and fifty health, three hundred health... Now! 957 pressed S the moment he swung his hammer in a basic attack, and then used his E skill.
"Neither Fiora nor Poppy in the top lane were willing to retreat. This fight was going to go all the way. Poppy was still holding onto her E, and Fiora was holding onto her W. Both sides were trading blows. Poppy used her E skill... but Fiora blocked it. god_C blocked Poppy's close-range E."
Miller seemed to be roaring, the outcome of this top lane battle could very well determine the course of the entire game.
Poppy's E skill was blocked, and she was stunned on the spot. Li Chen countered with an AQA combo, bringing Poppy down to a sliver of health. After Poppy woke up, she pressed Q and flashed. Li Chen did not dodge the Q, took the damage, and then flashed and auto-attacked, finishing off Poppy with a single sword strike.
Fiora got First Blood!
"Nice, C God, you are my god!" Meiko instantly turned into a little fanboy, knowing that he was going to be carried again this game.
Looking at the fallen Tristana in her hammer form, Su Xiaoyan made a conclusion about the top lane matchup: "After this fight, it's going to be very difficult for 957 in the top lane. Without teleport, he'll lose at least two waves of minions, and when he returns to lane, he'll face a Fiora who's ahead in both levels and experience, unless the jungler..."
But just then, the camera suddenly switched to the middle of the road, where the body of an excavator was lying on the side of the road.
It turns out that while the fight was taking place in the top lane, a battle also broke out between the two sides in the mid lane.
The reason was that Condi came to the bottom jungle, searched around but didn't see a single jungle monster, and realized he had been tricked. Since he had nothing else to do, he decided to gank the mid lane and do something.
But the factory manager's sense of smell was too sharp. After clearing the bottom jungle, he didn't go directly to the top jungle. Instead, he camped behind the wall of his own raptors. Condi found an opportunity to flash and knock up the junior, but he was also stunned by the factory manager and couldn't deal any damage.
Xiye's damage alone was not enough to kill Taliyah, who still had more than half of her health left. In the end, Xiaoxue used Flash to pull away, then turned around and brought back the Excavator, cooperating with Clearlove to kill her.
The simultaneous deaths of Ueno and Ueno made WE's already unfavorable situation even worse.
"Good job, factory. Your ability to exploit acquaintances is truly undeniable. I'll take you on as the C this time."
"Hmph, fine, I'll stand up straight in front of Li Chen." The factory manager snorted, feeling that he had finally stood up straight in front of Li Chen.
"What kind of game is this? Top laner gets solo killed, jungler gets counter-ganked in mid, feeding on multiple lanes?"
"957 can't even beat a rookie top laner now?"
"The title of 'Civil War God' is well-deserved."
"C-spotting is still too over-the-top; her three signature moves really can't be shown."
"VG stubbornly let Riven play, WE stubbornly let Fiora play, let's wait and see if someone will let Jayce play."
"It'll be difficult to release Jess!"
WE is having a very difficult time playing now.
If the top lane minion wave is controlled and you can't farm minions, it's basically like quitting the game; there's a high chance you won't even be seen playing that match.
The jungler only cleared one jungle camp at the start of the game and gave Taliyah a kill, completely disrupting the early game rhythm of the mid and jungle.
Now, WE can only rely on their bot laner, Mystic.
In just over five minutes, Li Chen reached level six and began quickly clearing the minion wave, preparing to push forward.
After returning home, Meiko didn't log back in. Instead, she and Clearlove entered the enemy's upper jungle to set up vision and find Condi's location.
957 sensed something was wrong and immediately controlled Poppy, who was only level 5, to retreat all the way back to the second tower and hide in the bush, watching helplessly as a large wave of minions entered the tower without daring to go and farm them.
Li Chen then entered the jungle, and with the help of the factory manager, took down the red buff and the Krugs. He then returned to his lane to farm minions and recall to buy equipment.
Meanwhile, the factory manager and Meiko camped between the two towers in the top lane, preventing Poppy from farming minions, and only retreated after Fiora finished her items and returned to her lane.
Although Z-King lost a lot of minions due to Meiko's roam, he didn't care at all. After all, the point of playing Ezreal in this game was to survive and not die, and nothing else mattered to him.
Miller, looking at the economic gap between the two teams, said, "WE is having a really tough time. They are so far behind in gold. It's only been seven and a half minutes, and the team's economic disadvantage has already reached 2,300 gold. Most of that is concentrated in the top lane. The only one who is doing relatively well in the bottom lane is just farming normally and is 300 gold ahead of EZ."
Su Xiaoyan: "I think WE can't continue like this. They need to do something, otherwise the economic gap will keep widening."
Miller said, "But who can WE target to break the deadlock now? Fiora? Putting aside the vision in the upper jungle, 957's Poppy is only level 5 right now. He hasn't seen what the minion wave looks like for three minutes, and he only has 16 CS."
This Fiora is already level 7, and with the jungle farm, she has Tiamat and Vampiric Scepter. For a level 5 Rek'Sai and a level 5 Poppy to gank her is just suicide. And if Syndra in mid lane dares to come, Taliyah won't stand by and watch.
After helping WE analyze the situation, Miller shook his head and said, "To be honest, I think WE should start thinking about the draft for the next game. They need to pay attention to the top lane in the next game and give 957 a comfortable champion, at least to make the laning phase work."
