In the blink of an eye, it was time for the fourth little dragon to spawn.
During this period, Xu Yuan did not make any mistakes.
His eyes were calm and serious, and he was still careful even when he was developing, not giving JDG any chance to continue targeting him.
As the one protecting one among four, he must do this.
Because he carries almost all of EDG's hopes. If EDG wants to win, he must perform well...
Perfect!
“…It’s unbelievable. No one expected that EDG could play JDG like this in a BO5!”
At the commentary desk, Miller spoke in amazement.
Before the game, no one thought that EDG and JDG were teams of the same level.
Even if EDG beats JDG in the regular season, so what?
IG did the same.
But can IG defeat JDG in BO5?
In fact, there was no chance of even meeting JDG.
BO3 and BO5 have always been two different games.
As the number one seed of S13, JDG is undoubtedly strong.
To be frank, they are the strongest team in the current LPL.
And what about EDG?
It has long lost its former glory.
Before Xu Yuan returned, they were even on a crazy losing streak.
But it was this EDG that dragged JDG into the quagmire!
"The Savior who returned from the old times showed a terrifying suppression power. Now he is simply fighting one against five!"
"Is the former legendary player really so exaggerated?!"
Miller's voice was trembling a little.
He usually doesn't really praise the players.
But this kind of thing, which depends almost entirely on the performance of one person, can fight against the opponent who is the best in LPL on equal terms...
He really has never seen it!
"That's too much... I have the advantage against anyone, and I can defeat anyone..."
"Who on earth said that Savior chose to leave temporarily four years ago because of too much pressure?"
"Maybe the opponent is putting too much pressure on me!"
It is undeniable that teammates also created a lot of development space for Xu Yuan.
But if it weren't for Xia's near-perfect performance, this game would definitely not have lasted until now!
Not to mention any advantages!
But the facts are there, EDG is in the advantage now!
"Three pieces."
Xu Yuan returned home, replenished the third piece of equipment, the Bloodthirsty Sword, and spoke softly.
The next moment, his eyes suddenly became cold.
"It's time to pick up the group."
He paused, the corners of his mouth raised with unquestionable confidence.
"Catch it, and you win!"
Under the current circumstances, the players are still a little afraid of JDG and play somewhat conservatively.
Xu Yuan could understand them.
After all, this is a challenge to the strongest LPL team in active service.
As the core of the team, he won't talk about any big principles.
He would just give them confidence.
Don't worry about whether you can win or not.
Believe me!
Trust me, that's enough.
"Both sides are rapidly moving towards the little dragon. Both sides have all their skills at this wave. With Leblanc and Crocodile leading the way, it will be a short four-on-four situation!"
Wang Duoduo's voice also began to become tense as the situation suddenly changed.
"Should we hit directly, or pull first?"
Xu Yuan walked at the back of the team, and his position gave no chance to the opponent from the beginning.
It would be great to be at the front and chase after people like Uzbek, but unfortunately he doesn't have the conditions to do so now.
This brought him to a sprint, without purification.
Whenever you are forced to use your ultimate skill, it is easy to die suddenly if you are controlled.
And JDG’s lineup... a bunch of control!
Every team battle is like walking on thin ice for Xu Yuan.
but……
He had to get to the other side.
At this moment, Xu Yuan's eyes were deep and calm, and he kept picturing the scene of the team battle in his mind.
As an AD, you must remember the opponent's skills, because AD is too fragile and any mistake will result in death.
This is a professional game, the opponent is JDG, it is almost impossible to make low-level mistakes!
Giving an opportunity is like giving it away!
"Meiko, don't rush to open it!"
"Their target will only be me! Once they start, just stay by my side and help me control the people!"
"Ah Le, don't just keep pushing forward. The opponent's damage is already increasing. You can hit the monkey when he comes over!"
"Don't rush to T, don't go around, just attack from the front! They must have had vision from behind, it's very dangerous to go around!"
"When Jiejie uses his ultimate, you just need to watch Neeko. If Neeko doesn't move forward, don't use R. He will most likely choose to use the push stick and flash to use R!"
Xu Yuan never stopped talking. He was communicating frantically with his teammates and assigning them tasks.
For Xu Yuan now, it is better to tell his teammates directly what to do instead of letting them figure out what to do on their own.
None of the teammates said anything, but Xu Yuan knew they must have heard it.
After completing the pre-team deployment, Xu Yuan still did not let down his guard.
Xia's movement suddenly stopped and she stood still.
The next moment, a hook suddenly cut through the air in front of him!
When EDG was about to approach the dragon pit, Missing suddenly hooked in the EDG crowd.
He plays the game of catching people off guard!
He had used this trick on many people before, because many people would relax their vigilance before the group was in position.
Especially when I feel like I’m in a crowd and it’s impossible to be hooked.
However, missing takes advantage of this mentality!
Unfortunately, he met the monster Xu Yuan today.
Even when he was making arrangements in front of the group, he did not focus entirely on speaking, and he was still paying attention to the situation in front of him.
"Is this a fucking human?"
Missing really couldn't hold it anymore. How could you react to this kind of hook through people?
Titan's Q is very wide, and it is really difficult to miss it.
But because of this, Titan's Q that penetrates people is more prone to errors because it is too wide.
Missing dared to take action because he was highly proficient in Titan.
But the opponent reacted quickly and used S directly to avoid this sudden hook!
And…that’s not all!
Because EDG was on the red side, this Q hooked the wall in front of Xia, directly causing Titan's body to move forward!
Almost instantly, Xu Yuan spoke.
"Pig girl hit him!"
Luo's R and W are too important, so you must not use them first.
But it doesn’t matter about Pig Girl’s Q.
The team battle started under this sudden situation!
"The Titan is open! But it missed! The Savior was too focused!"
"Pig Girl directly bumped into Titan, and Titan immediately used basic attack to freeze Pig Girl, and used R skill to lock Savior!"
This is often the case. A team battle starts in an instant, and it is not always possible to wait until both sides have their formations ready.
Missing was also decisive enough. After using the R skill, he immediately used Flash to attack Xu Yuan to trigger the imprisonment.
But...Xu Yuan used his skills just as decisively!
The moment Titan raised the big anchor in his hand, he had already activated the sprint in his hand and began to pull back.
Even though Titan's R still locked onto him, his subsequent plan to use Flash to attack A was shattered!
Waves of water rushed straight towards Xia.
"Ah Le, monkey!"
Xu Yuan had already spoken before he was knocked away, and his eyes were as calm as ever.
There is no way he can pay this R.
To win this team battle, he must use his ultimate skill at the most critical moment.
Sion suddenly transformed into a car and crashed directly into JDG's formation!
However, he was forcibly stopped before he could drive for two seconds!
At the same time, Kanavi, who was in invisible state, was knocked out!
"It's over!"
At this moment, Kanavi's heart sank suddenly.
I was too impatient!
He should have thought of it earlier. Since Xia dared not use R when facing Titan's ultimate move , there must be someone to protect her!
However, this wave of temptation was too great, and Xia was about to be knocked away.
As long as Xayah is killed in one second, JDG's team battle will definitely be one-sided.
Kanavi's Monkey used W and flashed, and was about to touch Xu Yuan, but was knocked out by Sion's ultimate that was suddenly activated!
"Kanavi was knocked out! Didn't Neeko choose to follow!?"
The situation suddenly became complicated, causing the commentator to let out a slight exclamation.
Monkey was intercepted, but why didn’t Neeko follow?
However, Knight was not a coward this time.
Because Meiko's Luo was also like a shield, he had already started scanning and was standing next to Xu Yuan.
This scan was originally prescribed for monkeys.
But because Alezhen bumped into Monkey, the scan actually had the effect of catching Neeko's W and making her invisible.
Knight knew very well that the Pig Girl next to him, who seemed to have been exhausted by the Emperor's shooting, was actually also looking at Savior.
It is inevitable that there will be some dilemma for a while.
In fact, Knight’s idea of ​​starting a team is sometimes very similar to canceling an account.
If you ask him to close the account and enter the market a second time, he can do it perfectly.
The so-called second entry means following the control chain after the team leader enters the field.
Secondary entries for account closing are generally excellent.
The same goes for knight.
His secondary entry and control chain are excellent, and his judgment of timing is excellent.
However……
Once you give him the responsibility of starting the first group, he will become hesitant!
Because the mid laner position must deal damage, if he fails to enter the field, his ultimate move may be wasted.
Why is Knight so good at playing mid laners like Annie?
Because even if Annie's ultimate is in vain, her ultimate still has some benefits.
Not only can it help push the line, but it can also attack first and steal a set.
So Knight naturally wouldn't hesitate. After all, there would be no waste of output and no loss if he released it.
But, Neeko is different!
Knight was initially planning to look for an opportunity to go around, but when he was around, he heard Missing say, "Let me try to seize the opportunity."
Then I saw that missing was checked.
The incident happened suddenly, so he would naturally hesitate.
And precisely because of his hesitation, Xu Yuan, who had just landed, began to output without any pressure.
Xia, who already has three pieces of equipment, becomes a pure output machine after activating her W: Deathly Feathers.
The first one to be killed was Kanavi who entered the field.
"Kanavi can't handle it! Xia's output with three pieces of equipment is too explosive!"
"It's over! Does JDG want to continue playing?!"
The JDG fans in the audience were completely stunned.
"Why did Kanavi give it away!"
"No, how can this be disconnected? Kneeling directly after seeing the Savior? Why don't you fire him!"
However, what they didn't know was that the moment Titan started a team fight, Neeko should have gone all in regardless of the consequences.
With Kanavi's death, it was even more hopeless for Neeko to enter the game.
You didn't go in when there was someone pushing you from the front, and now that there is no one pushing you, how can you go in?
"It's really as expected..."
Xu Yuan released the finger that had been pressing on the ultimate move, and while madly attacking, he sighed in his heart.
Although he guessed that Knight might hesitate, he didn't expect Knight to really hesitate like that.
This situation reminded him of the BO5 between JDG and T1 in the S13 World Championship.
It seems to be the last one, right?
Kanavi took out Lollipop Belvis jungler, then walked forward in the jungle with Knight's clockwork ball, ready to take the opportunity to catch Tsar Lee Sang-hyuk.
Then……
Because the opponent had already surrounded him, Clockwork took the ball back and did not choose to use R.
This directly led to Kanavi's Belvis being killed by T1 immediately after his E skill ended.
Sold directly!
It was originally an opportunity to capture Lee Sang-hyuk, but it led to a complete collapse of the situation and the loss of the little dragon.
Xu Yuan has a very deep memory of this wave.
Because JDG only had this one chance to turn the game around from beginning to end, and this opportunity slipped away due to the coordination problems between the mid and jungle.
And now...
How similar?
Kanavi wanted to open it, and he did open it.
Then Knight hesitated and didn't follow up with the output immediately.
As a result, Xia was unable to use her ultimate skill, and Kanavi was instantly killed by focused fire.
And with kanavi's fall, JDG has already lost this team battle.
Because even if EDG doesn't fight well in team battles, the little dragon already belongs to EDG.
As long as EDG gets this little dragon, it will be a major blow to JDG.
not to mention……
Without Monkey King, Titan’s ultimate has already been used.
At this time, no one could limit Xu Yuan's output.
"Savior's output is too high! Missing can't handle it either!"
"Neeko pushed the stick and tried to enter the arena! But Jiejie and Meiko were staring at him the whole time, so Knight had no choice but to surrender his golden body!"
"Virus finally dealt with the Pig Girl in the front, but the front has already been defeated!"
"Emperor Chi, what should we do?"
Chidi's eyes were stern and serious, his mind raced, and he finally chose to retreat.
It’s frontal and we can’t fight anymore.
As for knight?
Chidi will not be like Ashui.
If you, the knight, are cowardly, then you are a coward. If you lose the team battle, then you lose.
There is no possibility of operation in this wave, and Emperor Chi will not have any hesitation.
Symbolically giving up the ultimate skill to help Neeko buy some time was the last kindness of the Ruler Emperor.
"Oh my, Fofo played too smart this time. He and Crocodile were leading the team the whole time, just to prevent Crocodile from going head-on!"
"369 has been looking for a chance to TP, but fofo just sticks to him and refuses to give him a chance to TP. Even if he double-steps and flashes, he will forcibly interrupt 369!"
"369 is angry, but he can't keep this enchantress!"
"Crocodile can't be carried with LeBron! Is there something wrong with JDG's decision?!"
The narrator sighed and spoke.
What EDG didn't bring this time was a Leblanc who could only consume energy in team battles.
But the one that JDG didn't come was a big crocodile.
The team battle abilities of these two people are not at the same level at all.
Isn't it a bit problematic to let Crocodile and LeBlanc lead the team this time?
However, in reality, there is nothing JDG can do about it.
Because Neeko can no longer go with Leblanc.
Fofo is developing very well now, should Neeko go with Leblanc?
You will really die.
As EDG took down the little dragon, JDG's dragon soul rhythm was completely ruined.
The most important thing is that EDG even had time to kill the Baron this time.
All the small and big dragons were taken, and the situation that was originally just a small advantage instantly turned into a big advantage!
The next step is naturally to advance using the dragon’s buff.
369 was really uncomfortable playing this game, he was not there in every team fight.
But if you want to blame him, it seems normal that someone specially sent people to contain him.
But it’s not strange... What if you can’t win head-on?
Now with the buff of the big dragon, fofo's Ahri became even more unscrupulous.
A character like Ahri is flexible in leading the line, but she is limited by her lack of AOE clearing ability, so she does not appear very often in professional competitions.
But that was before!
With the emergence of the electric knife, AD Leblanc's speed in clearing the line is no less than that of a traditional mage, but she is more flexible than a traditional mage.
This also directly leads to the fact that Leblanc is now undoubtedly the most popular version.
Faced with the almost all-pervasive solo push of Ahri, JDG became increasingly exhausted.
What to do?
I thought it was four protecting one, but it was actually four and one splitting the lane! ?
Could it be that EDG was fishing after taking the top lane?
But they also know that if Xia can't stand up, this Ahri can't be carried.
Because if Xia can't get up, EDG will not be able to withstand the head-on attack.
Only by withstanding the pressure head-on can Ahri carry the team solo without any pressure.
After a period of operation, JDG could only watch the defensive towers fall one after another.
There is no way, because it is really impossible to defend it.
Their lineup is strong in team fights, but they really have no way to deal with creatures like Ahri with two displacement skills.
You use all your skills to deal with Leblanc, so what should you do with this fat Xayah over here?
After seeing the middle lane high ground fall, EDG still had no intention of retreating, and continued to push forward taking advantage of the last twenty seconds of the Baron buff.
369 knows very well that there is not much time left for JDG.
"It must be opened. If it's not opened now, there will be no chance."
The bottom lane high ground was still being held by Ahri and was about to be lost.
Once the two high grounds were lost, JDG couldn't get out for a while.
If you want to win, it’s still the same sentence:
open!
Only by starting a team battle can we avoid being defeated.
However, this time...
EDG, ready to initiate a team fight.
"We have a huge economic advantage now. I have four pieces of equipment but he has only two and a half!"
"Enchantress's damage has also increased, so it's totally fine to use it!"
"Virus is fast at tanking, but it still takes some time to deal with Sejuani and Sion. As long as you withstand it head-on, there will be no pressure on my output!"
"Start scanning right after the fight. Don't give the monkey any chance to touch me!"
He never stopped talking.
As a commander, he must clearly tell his teammates what to do. This is his style.
He cannot control the operations of his teammates, but he can make his teammates play the way he wants.
This is the unique confidence of a veteran dean!
Don’t forget that during the S7 Spring Season, Xu Yuan was also the undisputed dean of EDG.
Facing such a cautious EDG, JDG's last gamble looked a bit like...
joke.
Because EDG really didn't give any chances at all, everyone believed in Xu Yuan wholeheartedly and were willing to create an output environment for him.
And Xu Yuan did not let this trust down.
"JDG finally chose to start a team fight!"
"But EDG was well prepared! Monkey King had no way of entering the field without Flash! He was scanned out by Sion as soon as he got on the field!"
"Sean just drives the car, the monkey can't rely on Savior at all!"
"Savior's output environment is too good! Xia with four pieces of equipment can hit tanks too quickly!"
Xia’s ability to handle the front row is not bad, not to mention that this is a Xia that has developed beyond the timeline.
If Xayah with four pieces of equipment can't beat a Monkey King who has cut out half of his meat with his divine black armor, then the AD really needs to be deleted.
In just a blink of an eye, the crocodile, who flashed into the field synchronously with the monkey, could only fall to the ground in disappointment after forcing Xia to use her ultimate move.
No matter how much blood your crocodile adds, it is only two and a half pieces now.
Can Xia withstand the Siren's Swiftblade and Bloodthirster's piercing ability?
I can’t bear it!
Chidi has been diligently attacking EDG's front row.
You know what, it can really hurt.
But it's just okay.
After confirming that the top and jungle were dealt with, Xu Yuan started to attack crazily behind Sejuani who pushed forward.
I can only say that it feels very safe.
Chidi wanted to struggle a little longer, but was awakened by two slashes from Xia.
With Bloodthirster, Xia's A can restore nearly 100 HP, and she won't lose much HP at all when she attacks her.
On the contrary, two critical hits from Xia directly reduced his Varus to low health, forcing him to give up Flash.
And knight?
Knight has been severely beaten by the developed fo, and his golden body has been exposed.
JDG, defeated!
The explosion at the JDG base was accompanied by the silence of the JDG fans below the stage.
Silence is Cambridge tonight.
They never expected that when EDG, which had already defeated JDG in the regular season, collided with JDG again in the playoffs, they would still crush JDG in the first game.
Could it be that they are really that strong?
But...this shouldn't be the case!
What is EDG's B configuration?
What about Fofo and Ale... Can the combined net worth of these middle and upper class people be half as high as Knight's?
Although Jiejie and Meiko were once champions, how long has it been since then?
Even for Jiejie, it’s been two years since he won the championship!
Jiejie is now a pure formula jungler, he doesn't have any ability at all.
Meiko is an old guy who won the championship in S7.
It can be said that these four people are in the eyes of many people.
If we can make it to the playoffs without being eliminated in the first round, it will be a success.
The past was the past, and the present is the present!
This was indeed reflected when the summer season started. EDG suffered a crazy losing streak at the beginning of the season and was almost numb from losing.
Why does it suddenly feel different after the AD was changed?
Now that they can beat JDG by one point in the BO5, it at least shows that they have the ability to advance to the World Championship.
It's outrageous!
Why?
On what basis?!
"Let's congratulate EDG! They took the lead in the BO5 against JDG and won the first game."
"Next, JDG must quickly adjust their tactics and status. After all, it can be seen that there are indeed some problems in the coordination between the mid and jungle in this game."
After congratulating EDG, Miller also mentioned the mid and jungle in a subtle way.
After all, I have fans, so I can’t say anything too harsh.
He saw clearly Neeko's hesitation in the previous team battles.
Rather than saying that Kanavi gave him away, it would be more accurate to say that Knight sold him out.
"Mid and jungle are really outrageous! Why didn't Kanavi wait for Neeko to take the initiative?"
"Are you kidding? A coward would take the initiative?"
"The water ghost is coming, everyone run!"
"I've fed your horse with grass. If I call a coward a water ghost, then if I call a bird a bird, then am I Godzilla?"
“Cowardly hand, cowardly hand, cowardly hand, cowardly hand!”
“Bird-bird-bird-bird-bird-bird-bird-bird!”
The rhythm of the barrage suddenly went awry.
I can only say that the current LPL environment is like this. If you don’t curse TS, then you are a zombie. If you don’t curse A Shui, then you are a water ghost. If you curse everyone, then you are Godzilla.
This is the environment in our LPL. Do you have such an environment in LCK?
Don’t mention it, people in LCK generally don’t swear.
They only play real.
Just a few days ago, another wandering black guy was caught outside the Samsung base.
The kind that carries a knife with you at all times.
These LCK fans are really awesome, they don't curse, don't argue, they only play offline solo kills. They in LCK wouldn't be able to do without this.
Who says that if he kills alone offline, it’s not a solo kill?
I just want to ask you whether you killed him or not!
"Can he still develop after such a targeted attack? I think we can't focus all on the bottom lane next time we play against EDG."
In the BLG base, Xun frowned and thought.
In this game, Kanavi was actually quite ruthless in targeting the bottom lane. He came to the bottom lane to camp at level 2, and even if he lost the game in the jungle, he still came to the bottom lane to cross the tower.
In such a targeted situation, ordinary AD can't play at all.
But for the Savior...
Xun didn't know how to describe that feeling, a common occurrence?
Yes, it’s a common occurrence!
Savior gave him the feeling that he was not panicking at all, and he didn't care about Kanavi's targeting at all, as if he had been caught like this many times before.
Xun decided to find out all the previous Savior games and watch them carefully.
"Next time we play against EDG?"
Toothpaste grinned, "Are you so confident that you can beat JDG? OK, buddy believes in you."
Xun:?
"What are you talking about? Why is JDG involved?"
He looked confused.
"Isn't it? What you mean is that EDG beat JDG, then JDG beat us, and then we beat JDG and then beat EDG? Isn't that next time?"
Toothpaste touched his head.
Xun was numb, "What I mean is that EDG lost to JDG, so we will play EDG in the loser group!"
"That doesn't make sense. You don't trust me, the God of the Deep? I'm also an old man."
Toothpaste just shook his head and spoke seriously.
He really wasn't talking nonsense. Toothpaste really likes players like Xu Yuan who can be both a carry and a stable player. It's really reassuring to have such a player in the bottom lane.
"I don't give a shit about you, Yuan Za. EDG should only win this one game."
Xun rolled his eyes.
"Their tactics are too simple. JDG's coach Hongmi is not someone you can easily mess with. JDG will definitely have to change their formation in the second game. They will definitely not be able to use LeBron."
"Without LeBron, EDG can at best play a pure four-protect-one strategy, but can a single four-protect-one strategy really help them beat JDG?"
"I can only say that I don't quite believe it."
The reason why EDG turned the game around after taking the little dragon in the late game was because Ahri developed well and was able to put pressure on the opponent's single lane.
In today's version, there are almost no heroes who can replace Leblanc.
Then just press it for you!
It’s not like JDG can’t play solo, so what can happen if EDG plays four protecting one?
After all, everyone can see that JDG's single-line strength is indeed stronger than EDG.
"Haha, shall we bet? I think EDG will win the second game."
After thinking about it, Toothpaste still chose to believe Xu Yuan.
This person has created too many miracles.
"Let's bet, what are we betting on? Let's make sure we don't bet on money."
Xun nodded readily.
"The loser has to serve the winner tea and water when he enters the training room, and call the winner dad every day, how about that?"
Toothpaste smiled cunningly.
"Let's bet!"
Xun is very confident in his judgment and has a bright smile.
Getting ready to be a dad!
