Chapter 59: They promised one shot, one kill, but when they went up there, they didn't even kno
In an instant, under the gaze of countless eyes, Summoner's Rift gradually unfolded.
A wave of heated discussion continued to emerge. Even the commentator, Wawa, couldn't understand it and could only say that both teams' lineups were decent. Miller, however, offered some commentary.
"The lineups of both sides are very similar, both focusing on attacking the mid, jungle and bot lane. However, EDG is different from Snake in that they value the bot lane more and are probably going to build around Caitlyn."
"But Snake is developing steadily and finding its rhythm. In the late game, they need Zz1tai, the captain, to make a big impact."
"I think we might not need to wait until the late game. As we all know, the Captain's farming ability is ridiculously high, and the mid lane is the fastest farming position. As long as Zz1tai performs well, there is a chance to take over the game in the mid-game," Uzi suddenly said.
Miller nodded, but quickly raised a question, "But the problem with the puppy is that Lucian fighting the captain is a counter."
"Actually, it's not that much of a counter. I'm familiar with Lucian, and it's not easy to lane against a skilled Gangplank."
"Although Lucian can quickly land two auto attacks with his passive, Gangplank's barrels have three health points. If the timing is right, he can knock up the barrels and then use his speed boost to chase down and hit him with a Fire Blade. In fact, Lucian's physique makes it impossible for him to lane against Gangplank."
Uzi's words were echoed by many Snake fans and GSL.
Look at that, that's professionalism! My dog truly deserves to be called the world's number one ADC!
Lucian is my dog's best friend's hero, how could I not know him?
[Who gave K the courage to pick Lucian mid? Did Liang Jingru give him the courage?]
[No, some people can play Lucian jungle, so why can't my K-God play Lucian mid?]
...
At this very moment, in the Deyunse live broadcast room, Sun Yalong and Xika were jumping up and down in surprise.
"It's hard to say about K's Lucian. Although he's a bit of a jerk, he still has some skill, brothers."
"Although K-beast has some strength, my Erzi's sword has never been dulled. Should we avoid K-beast's edge? I support Erzi!"
Amidst countless discussions, the match officially began. As soon as we entered, various signals suddenly started flashing continuously in the canyon.
"Brother Chen, could you place a ward for me at F6 on Sofm's map later?" Mingkai said in a deep voice.
"Yeah, Kai, I don't think you need to do too much this game. Just help the bot lane with vision and then go into Sofm's jungle. This guy just farms."
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Ming Kai laughed out loud, "You're quite knowledgeable, Brother Chen, you even know this?"
There aren't many players in the LPL who do a good job of jungle planning; Mingkai is one, and Sofm is another.
Back then, he treated the jungle areas of all the players like pig farms, and only Sofm could fight back.
"We can definitely pressure the bottom lane; I can flash in."
However, when Meiko saw Braum on the other side, he thought for a few seconds and then gave up. Everyone waited peacefully for the minions and jungle monsters.
"We don't even need to do much in the mid lane this game, Sofm, just gank mid."
Sofm listened to Zizhi's confident words, but he was unconvinced; he had never intended to catch him in the first place.
If Nidalee isn't farming jungle camps, what is she playing?
For jungle carry heroes like this, it's definitely a pass-by gank. For example, when he finishes clearing one jungle area and is on his way to another jungle area, he will gank the mid lane while passing by. He will never change his jungle clearing rhythm because of Zz1tai.
At 1 minute and 30 seconds into the game, the minion wave moved out, and Lu Chen stayed safely in the mid lane, feeling a sudden clarity in his mind.
It has to be said that Coach Nofe is a really good guy. Relying on his talent for returning to the basics, he has been practicing a lot of heroes recently. Today, Nofe also made a bold decision to pick Lucian as a flex pick, going for a mid and bot lane with two AD carries.
Their teamwork was excellent during training, so Nofe was incredibly confident when facing Abu's doubts backstage.
"Lucian mid? Can they win?"
"We'll win!" Nofe patted his chest confidently.
"It's a guaranteed loss," Scout thought to himself. Unless Lucian could push the Captain from level 1 to level 18, any mistake that gave the Captain an opening would mean that Lucian's short reach wouldn't be able to withstand the Captain's burst damage.
In the mid-lane, the minions from both sides converged, and the player placed a barrel behind the backline minions and even attacked it twice.
At this distance, there was no way Lu Chen could get closer. Seeing that Lu Chen didn't move, she decisively placed another bucket to connect with the first one, and still had the last bucket in her hand.
He wanted to see what Lu Chen was learning at level one, and whether he would try to take over the lane. If so, the three-barreled attack would blow up both the enemy and the minions.
Moreover, he has the Storm Rider's Surge talent, which can trigger a speed boost at that moment, plus the barrel's slow effect.
According to the principle of canyon relativity.
Enemy slows down + yourself accelerates = enemy is imprisoned.
He chased after Lu Chen and hit him with a fire blade. After this whole sequence, how could Lu Chen possibly fight him in the first place?
Of course, he also understood his position. He couldn't give Lu Chen any space. If Lu Chen went all in with him directly, he, as the captain, wouldn't be able to handle it.
"Trying to pull this on me?"
Seeing the two barrels in front of him, Lu Chen immediately learned E and stood on the left side of the middle lane.
Without saying anything more, they directly labeled him as the weakling.
Then pretend to walk forward, making it seem like you're going to finish off an enemy or even take a barrel.
As Lu Chen's Lucian approached, Zi Tai's eyes suddenly lit up!
It's too late to say, then soon!
He immediately swiftly removed the first barrel with his knife, then pressed down on it, placing the last barrel at Lucian's feet.
"Young man, you're still too young! You dare come up here?!"
But the next second, the smile on Zitai's face disappeared visibly, and in the midst of the storm, Lu Chen's Lucian suddenly moved as fast as the wind.
He glided upwards, not only avoiding the triple barrage of cannon fire but also closing the distance to the captain.
Ruthless Pursuit!
Two bullets struck Zita precisely between the eyebrows, immediately startling him!
"hair!"
broken!
He had fallen for Lu Chen's big trick. He thought Lu Chen might be able to learn E level at level one, but judging from Lu Chen's actions just now, it seemed unlikely.
After all, leveling up E at level 1 results in a long cooldown, and without the AOE of Q's Piercing Light, Lu Chen wouldn't be able to clear the wave if he leveled up E at level 1.
However, the player overlooked one point: the captain's barrels have a long cooldown in the early game, which is when neither of them has any skills available.
Moreover, his captain's triple barrel attack only hit the minion wave but not Lu Chen, so the minion wave will definitely push towards Lu Chen's tower next.
How can a captain without skills face a long-range Lucian? Although Zz1tai had retreated at top speed, Lu Chen didn't touch the minion wave and continued to apply pressure forward, which left Zz1tai dumbfounded.
He had already realized what was happening.
Oh no, he looks like he's gone crazy!
"My god, at the start of the game in the mid lane, Kingslayer used a fake position and his E skill to bait out Zz1tai's three barrel combos, effectively pushing Zz1tai out of the experience range!"
Miller exclaimed in surprise, "This means controlling the minion wave from level one! And Zz1tai's Gangplank doesn't even have any barrels left, how are we supposed to play like this?!"
"The captain was supposed to quickly develop to the mid-game and then take over the game, but the game has only just begun, and it seems like this captain has already messed up!"
Hearing Miller's excited words, Uzi felt extremely uncomfortable and began to question whether Zz1tai was an actor.
Are you kidding me?
"Holy crap, Erzi's gone mad! That bastard K used his E skill to bait out other skills at level one and completely stunned Erzi!"
Sun Yalong was somewhat incredulous. "K-beast really does have something. But it's alright, as long as the captain can withstand the pressure, the mid lane minions can't be controlled for too long."
Mid lane is not top lane because the lane is short, so you can't control the lane for too long. Also, in this game, the captain starts with Corrupting Potion, so he can use his health to farm experience or last hit minions in the early game.
Even so, his posture was somewhat unbearable. All he could do was see the minions about to die, then carry Lucian's gun barrel and go up to gain experience.
Once the buckets were recharged to three, his expression turned fierce, and he immediately placed a bucket at his feet.
He wanted to land a slash and then place it in front of Lu Chen and Lucian, without intending to detonate it. He just wanted to force Lu Chen to retreat so that he could take the opportunity to push forward and avoid the current predicament.
However, just as Zita placed the first barrel and landed his first auto-attack, Lu Chen's Lucian charged in.
EAA!
boom!
The bucket that Zita had just placed had already turned into a cold 10-yuan note. What made Zita even more panicked was that Lucian's gun barrel was immediately moved onto him and chased him all the way to the tower before stopping.
While running, Zita placed a bucket behind him, waiting for Lu Chen to turn around and launch a counterattack.
But then, just as a drop of blood fell into the second bucket, and the captain had just raised his hand.
Lucian's bullet had already hit him first, and the bucket turned back into a cold 10-dollar bill.
"Damn it! How come he knows my bucket better than I do?!"
A few seconds later, Lu Chen and he both leveled up to level 2. Lu Chen thought things were finally looking up, but...
"Over here! Kingslayer, having leveled up to level two, is here with his captain in full arrogance!"
"EAA has taken down the barrel of the stance again!" Miller's eyes widened, finding it utterly unbelievable.
Is this captain a spy? Is he providing financial support to Lu Chen?
At this moment, Zita watched as his Q skill was not used, while the second full-health barrel lay unharmed at Lu Chen's feet.
He felt numb all over.
Lucian raised his gun barrel and quickly moved to a different position, only to have the piercing holy light hit the very spot where he moved.
QAA!
Another small combo followed. Apart from raising his hand to Q Lu Chen and firing a shot, Zita had no other options. He wanted to chase after Lu Chen to attack with his fire knife, but Lu Chen retreated while auto-attacking, forcing Zita to quickly drink a potion of corruption and retreat.
"I don't want to play anymore! Who said he can't play Lucian?"
Just a few minutes into the game, Zz1tai's health was already low, and Crystal roared in response.
"No summoner spells in the bot lane!"
"Zz1tai, what are you barking about? Even if you're under a lot of pressure in the mid lane, is it more than we're under pressure in the bot lane? That Thresh flashed and ignited, all aimed at O-King!"
"Didn't you make such bold claims yourself, saying you could take down Lucian and the Captain with one shot each!"
Crystal glanced at the mid-lane view, his eyes widened suddenly, and he pressed Tab.
Lucian got 8 kills, Gangplank got 0 kills.
Seeing this disparity in last-hitting, Crystal was also speechless, sending Zz1tai a question mark: "Is this what you mean by one-shot kills?"
"You didn't even manage to take down a single soldier!"
"Damn it!" Zita's face turned quite red. He also opened Tab and found that both of his bottom laners had lost both summoner spells.
"This is what you mean by not having two summoner spells? Where are your two summoner spells in the bot lane?"
"O-King got caught in Thresh's Flash E. I used both summoner spells to save him, and O-King used Flash Cleanse to escape."
"The enemy bot lane doesn't have either summoner spells, is there a problem?"
As Crystal finished speaking, Snake's voice chat suddenly fell silent, while Lu Chen and Deft both smiled.
Their smiling faces were simultaneously reflected on the big screen, along with the last-hitting situations in the mid and bottom lanes.
Suddenly, the entire internet is at a loss?
Uzi, in particular, stared in disbelief at the laning phase in the mid and bot lanes.
Is this what you Snake meant by forcing Lu Chen into retirement and striving to become the number one outstanding club on Ling Shi Road?
Damn, you even made Lu Chen laugh!
It amused all the audience members!
