Chapter 96 Horrific Damage, Victory of Heroes and Understanding!
A thousand-year-old wild ginseng!
Wild royal jelly!
A human-shaped He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum)!
Yes, it all melts in your mouth.
TSG—BCYM killed EDE—amamingJ!
"Killed! AJ, a fully healed tree, was chased to death by two tanks." Yu Tong was a little incredulous.
"No, what gives you the right? I'd accept it if you bought a Warhammer, even if it was just excavators or molten slag."
Eleven chimed in, "Tahm Kench doesn't even have molten slag, he's just wearing a ghost cloak—"
The kill announcements came again, and the live stream became even more lively.
[League of Legends designer, do you want to see what kind of monster you've created?]
[My God, this top laner is incredibly tanky, has crowd control, sustain, high damage, and can even protect the carry in team fights. What other top laner is this versatile?]
[I told you, in League of Legends, all the support players are carry-type characters, but you didn't believe me.]
[Guys, I really want to learn this champion. I'm off to my second computer to play top lane Tahm Kench.]
[The Chinese server's tactical masters are still putting up a strong fight; top lane Tahm Kench has shown some understanding.]
A casual remark from a viewer completely awakened the team leaders on screen.
Putting aside other things, just considering that he can deal such exaggerated damage to tanks without even having an attack item, top lane Tahm Kench is definitely worth studying in depth.
Besides, it's not just top lane Tahm Kench on the field; mid lane Corki hasn't even started to exert his strength yet.
"Whoosh!"
Just as I was thinking this, a gasp suddenly rang out in the live stream room from the audience.
The director switched the camera to the middle.
The plane collided head-on with Kindred who had invaded the blue buff area. The plane had originally prepared to retreat due to Twisted Fate's ultimate, but the EDE jungler took advantage of the situation and used his Q skill to jump over the wall and slam into the plane's face.
As Fu Shiyan used W to create some distance, he inflicted burning damage on the ground. He then unleashed a three-hit combo of EQA, and with the Thunderlord's Decree talent, he brought the full-health Kindred down to near-death.
What shocked the audience was the terrifying damage dealt by the mid-range aircraft.
Airplane Poppy, the outbreak is already showing signs!
"I'm coming right away!"
Guo Chen, who had just finished taking Kindred's blue buff and was preparing to clear the second Rift Scuttler mark, made a move to head towards the mid lane.
Fu Shiyan stopped him.
"No need. The minion wave is in front of the tower, and I have Cleanse in hand. Twisted Fate won't dare to fly."
As he spoke, he glanced at the location of the base, "I've prepared the explosives. After Chenzi finishes eating the river crab, come over and gank mid lane to help me deal with the next wave push."
"Yes, sir!"
At eight minutes and forty seconds, the excavator emerged from the shadows in the upper half of the area.
The two originally only intended to force back the card and continue to control the minion wave, but the young man was under immense pressure and used his Flash directly when faced with the emerging Rek'Sai.
If neither the top nor the middle player flashes, then the subsequent rhythm will be much more comfortable.
Without the threat of being flashed and given a yellow card, and with Cleanse still in hand, Fu Shiyan didn't go back to base. He had the excavator help him get a blue buff and continued to linger in the mid lane.
Finally, as their levels continued to climb, EDE's mid laner, who was firmly locked in the mid lane and unable to move, decided to call for reinforcements.
AJ, who was 0-1 in the top lane, was ganked and helped clear the wave!
One minute later, unable to bear getting the card but accomplishing nothing, EDE chose to forcefully grab it.
However, on TSG's side, Kalista and Thresh protected each other, and a Rek'Sai was also ganking from behind. After unleashing a barrage of skills, Twisted Fate himself was left with very low health upon landing.
Gank ended in failure.
"Oh, we can't rush this!"
"If the mid lane can't be dealt with, and Twisted Fate forces the activation, even if TSG didn't warn you, it's too difficult to catch Kalista and Thresh. If you can't catch them, it's a pure loss."
"We can't ignore them either. On the left, besides Kindred, Twisted Fate and Ashe are all tempo-based champions. If you farm against the right side, your damage output in the mid-to-late game will be completely different."
EDE's current awkward situation is evident at 11 o'clock.
Of course, there's also the point that EDE's Kindred, as a late-game support, is also not developing well, so they have to be anxious.
Thinking about this, Shiyi was startled.
No, TSG is that strong?
It was thought that making a splash in the City Championship was the limit for this internet cafe team, and that reaching LSPL...
Leaving aside the possibility of being relegated due to culture shock, if they want to go further, they'll need to hone their skills for at least another two or three seasons.
Who would have thought that EDE, a team that has played in the LPL and even the World Championship and is stronger than last year, would be completely helpless against their opponent?
Before Eleven could continue his reflections, the game camera switched back to the mid lane.
What happened next made him fully realize the reality.
"Kindred helped block the lane, and Twisted Fate returned to the lane. It's fair to say that the Corki didn't take your mid-jungle duo seriously."
"A phosphorescent bomb—hit again! Normal attack A, wow, the attack range control is really good."
"Missile fired—hit! Another one, hit again—but this red missile can't be fed."
The commentators were met with a chorus of exclamations of amazement.
It's not that the two of them were making a fuss, but as a viewer, it's hard not to feel any emotion when a full-health card is reduced to only a third of its health as soon as it leaves the base and has to return to the city.
【Wait, how do you play this?】
[A set of skill cards is already ruined?]
[Crush only has a Sheen weapon on him. What if he pulls out a Trinity Force later? He might just one-shot everyone.]
[I just can't understand it, I really can't understand it. It's just that they changed the passive damage to be half physical and half magical, and added 10%, how can the damage be so outrageous?]
Many professional players quickly figured out the answer to this question from viewers in the live stream.
The reason why the damage is so exaggerated with only one Radiance is actually just one thing: the combination of the Corki's passive mixed damage and the "double penetration" of his E skill.
For a normal hero, their personal attributes are either high armor or high magic resistance. Take Kassadin, for example. Why is he so comfortable against mages but helpless against physical assassins? Ultimately, it's because his passive reduces magic damage, resulting in extremely low armor in the early game.
As a ranged card, its armor and magic resistance aren't particularly high either.
By splitting basic attacks into half magical and half physical attacks, it's as if each basic attack deals two sets of damage simultaneously.
E double penetration + Sheen + Thunderlord's Decree amplify the damage. In the early to mid-game, before your armor and magic resistance are built up, a full combo will kill not only Twisted Fate, but other heroes as well. This is why the burst damage is ridiculously high.
"It's unclear how the late-game capabilities will be, and with the newly added dynamite passive, how will Crush utilize it off-screen?" This raised new questions among the professionals watching the match.
Now that the damage output of mid-lane aircraft has been proven, most people's focus has begun to shift to the red team's base.
There, there lay explosive charges that had never been used since the site was refreshed!
This scene didn't keep the audience waiting for long.
After sending the card back to base and pushing another wave of lanes, and having the jungler and support set up vision in the EDE red buff area, Fu Shiyan finally pressed the recall button.
11 minutes and 35 seconds!
Trinity Force purchased!
The explosive charge was airdropped and received.
Amidst the air raid sirens blaring throughout the area, the aircraft sped back to the central route from the base.
"Are they preparing for a dragon fight?"
Yu Tong glanced at the red team's vision position and said, "Hmm, the plane's explosive charge has a super-long displacement distance. Heroes standing in its path will also receive high damage, and the knockback effect can also divide the battlefield."
"I get it. Crush is using the dynamite pack in resource team fights. With Trinity Force just released, coupled with the dynamite pack, TSG's team fights are going to be incredibly strong."
TSG—Crush killed EDE—Baeme!
Yu Tong's expression froze.
The comments section erupted in laughter.
【! ! ! 】
[Haha, what do you know, commentator?]
[Crush: After all that fancy analysis, isn't using a bomb to intimidate the enemy during a resource-gathering team fight and using a long-range dash to kill one person and secure the dragon the same thing?]
To be honest, EDE's mid lane is unplayable now.
"Ahem, let's take a look at this solo kill in the mid lane."
"Even the card player probably didn't expect that, despite being in a safe position, the plane could fly right up to his face from under the tower in an instant."
"The excavator was given a blue-level slow effect, and then it just relied on its damage to brute force its way to death."
I have some feelings about the National Day holiday.
Was there any manipulation involved in this move?
Yes and no.
To say there was no such thing is that the plane's kill was simple and straightforward; just a few QARA attacks and the card was gone.
It's true, but how many ordinary players, or even professional players, can gain such an advantage in the laning phase and then pull out Trinity Force, the most expensive item in League of Legends, at the 0-minute mark?
"With Twisted Fate dead, TSG doesn't seem ready to take the dragon yet."
"Wow, he took the 300-dollar plane home to recharge, and the excavator went straight to the river to dig out your Kindred's mark."
"It's been over ten minutes, and we're still stuck at level one. How are we supposed to keep playing like this?"
"Honestly, I'm Kindred, and I really don't want to play this game anymore. It's just too unfair."
"You see, they can't get the jungle monster marks, and they can't gank the lanes. Their jungler controls resources in the top half of the map, so the bot lane duo immediately pushes back. Kalista and Alistar are positioned one in front and one behind, ensuring an absolutely safe distance."
"They're not giving us a chance!"
Not giving them a chance?
It's not just about not giving them a chance.
Entering the mid-game, with a significant advantage and the mid-lane's playstyle shifting from directing and controlling teammates to actively setting the pace, TSG has arguably perfected snowballing to its fullest extent at this stage.
Fourteen minutes and twenty-four seconds!
River crabs in the lower half of the area spawn, and white marks appear.
However, even with the plane and excavator arriving simultaneously, Kindred's second passive ability was still a long way off.
After taking the river crab, the mid and jungle players returned to the jungle, secured the blue buff, and the Corki returned to the lane and unleashed a barrage of machine gun fire, sending the minion wave back to Twisted Fate's tower—then recalled!
I've got French-style shoes!
At 15 minutes and 30 seconds, TSG easily secured the first dragon, and the EDE players didn't even dare to glance at it.
It was under this cycle that the CS difference between the two mid-laners went from ten to twenty, and then to thirty, reaching a critical point that was enough to crush a lane.
[I'm saying, is EDE going to get kicked away by TSG too?]
