Chapter 123: The Stone Statue's Back-Kicking Leg! The Zenith Shield Behind the Jungle!

The match entered loading.

Before leaving the stage, Coach Maokai still gave Left Hand some worried encouragement, telling him to "believe in himself."

Obviously, the choice of Galio was somewhat beyond their expectations.

And it was precisely this kind of unexpected change that was most likely to make people feel fear.

Especially when they were already trailing zero to two, the psychological pressure was rising exponentially.

Fortunately, this was just a Galio, not some hero they had never seen before.

The problem shouldn't be big.

"Oh, don't worry, Coach Bai, K-Huang's Ahri is stable; playing against a Galio is just easy!" JackeyLove said loudly, as if full of confidence.

Left Hand nodded lightly.

Under the encouragement of his teammates led by JackeyLove, he gradually revealed a firm look!

"Master Ye's Galio, it's here! It's finally here!"

On the other side, in Chujun's live broadcast room, seeing Ye Bo's Galio selected, he was so excited that he almost turned into a zombie and jumped on the spot.

"Who said before that Master Ye doesn't play heroes like Galio! Everyone come out and talk!"

After Chujun finished being excited, he hurriedly explained for Ye Bo in advance: "But to be honest, Galio is really hard to play against Ahri; he chose it late in this game mainly for the lineup. This Galio is a huge counter to the opponent's lineup. If he gets suppressed in laning, everyone should understand..."

Speaking of which.

Although Ye Bo didn't play much, because Galio was a hero in Old Deng Bo's "Initial Minimum Guarantee," and he had practiced some operations before, and this game triggered a hidden quest again.

The comprehensive proficiency mastery was actually above the Fiddlesticks in the last game.

The minion wave arrived.

Galio followed behind the minions, not giving Ahri a chance to consume him with white-hit AW fox fire.

"Left Hand's playstyle in this game is very aggressive; he would rather take minion damage and ruin the minion wave situation just to trade health with Galio," Chujun's eyes were fixed on the mid-lane lane-swapping situation: "It feels like TES still has ideas in this game; do they not change tactics even if they lose?"

"Master Ye is not the kind of Galio who just takes a beating and trades for pushing the lane; the gale is going to blow you, and then use the wind path to scrape the minions along the way... Oh my god, no problem, Master Ye's Galio!"

"Standard laning processing! I said it when I saw him play against Left Hand's Galio in the last game; his understanding of Galio is definitely above Left Hand!"

Although Chujun said it very excitedly.

But in fact, for health trading, Galio was at a small loss.

The reason why Ahri is said to be good at playing Galio mainly lies in three aspects.

The first is the pushing ability in the first few levels; Ahri is much stronger than Galio due to the advantage of long hands.

The second is the health trading ability; although Galio's magic shield is very easy to resist pressure against mages, if it is just an equal health trade, Ahri has recovery ability after all, so no matter how you trade, you earn.

The third is the E skill charm, which has a "knockdown" effect that "interrupts control."

This means that Galio's only displacement skill, if released straight to the face, will basically be interrupted 100%.

And although Galio's E has a "control cancellation" usage method, it can only be possessed when shaking in the first stage of the punch, and the difficulty of the game is much higher than that of the opponent.

Arriving at level two.

The health trade between the two sides was indeed as everyone expected; after all, the hero characteristics were there.

In the case that neither side made a mistake in skills, Ahri, relying on the passive 【Essence Theft】 recovery, had already played a health difference of about one bottle of medicine—this was still because Galio learned W at level two and relied on the magic shield of the W passive to resist consumption.

Of course, the reason why he was consumed like this was just because Ye Bo didn't want to retreat and cowardly Q minions to develop.

He had been hard-topping the health trade with the opponent, and he had been actively using his passive to knock the minion wave.

TES's system core in this game had not changed; choosing this lineup, it was highly likely that they were still counting on breaking the game from the mid-jungle.

And Ye Bo choosing Galio naturally could not accept handing over the support power to the opponent.

Ahri grabbed level three.

Opened fox fire to accelerate and directly crossed the line to press forward!

Left Hand could be said to be carrying no small expectations from outside and inside the field in this game, and having been beaten to the position MVP for two consecutive games, he was now incomparably eager to prove himself!

Galio still had two full-health melee minions in front of him before he could reach level three; there was no reason not to seize the opportunity to press forward.

But Ye Bo didn't retreat directly.

His eyes were sharply fixed on the back-row minions—in the last wave of health trading to consume Ahri, Galio used the {Wind Path Q} to scrape those three back-row minions.

Seeing Ahri's footsteps walking into the minion gap.

Galio flapped his wings, and two long-line gale arcs smashed forward—aiming at the position slightly behind Ahri's feet!

Left Hand's first instinctual reaction was naturally to immediately want to walk out of the {Wind Tunnel Q} continuous percentage damage range.

And because the position of the wind tunnel was biased towards the rear, Ahri could only choose to move laterally.

But at the same time... Galio had already leaned down and folded his wings {charging} and walked over!

"Oh my god! Master Ye's laning details!" As a Galio specialty player, Chujun quickly saw Ye Bo's intention.

Ahri was driven by the wind path to move laterally, and she was unprepared when she grabbed level three; one in and one out, she had already walked into the extreme range of the {Durand Shield} charging.

Ahri threw out a red-lip hot kiss to interrupt Galio's charging first.

But although the charging process of Durand Shield could be interrupted, it would not cause the taunt to disappear; it would just end the charging directly and release it automatically on the spot!

{Charm} and {Taunt} triggered simultaneously!

But at this time, Ahri had not been able to walk out of the gale area!

Ahri's level one E was 1.2 seconds, while Galio's W was from 0.5-1.5 seconds depending on the charging time.

This wave was not an instantaneous interruption; the control of the two was only at a similar time.

However, there was a core key.

"Taunt" is to make the enemy walk into the attack range and auto-attack—Ahri is a ranged hero, so at this distance, she naturally stays in place.

But the effect of "Charm" is that the enemy will move towards the caster!

Originally, there was still some distance between the two sides, but it was pulled closer in this control exchange.

Ahri ran backward the moment she broke the control, and Galio chased and auto-attacked with the passive 【Colossal Smash】, the AOE splash directly killing three ranged minions, instantly reaching level three!

{1 melee minion + 3 ranged minions, can also reach level three}

Galio topped with the {Aftershock} light layer and continued to stick to the chase, Aftershock exploded damage, and then suddenly turned around {Reverse E}!

The giant statue's body seemed to be turning its hips in the air, suddenly kicking back 275 yards in the opposite direction, turning and sticking to Ahri's front, raising its arm and kicking out!

Left Hand's hair stood up sharply.

Without even thinking, he flashed to pull away!

"Turtle! Left Hand's pressure is huge!" Chujun shouted synchronously, still explaining the reason to the audience.

Although the health trade in front was profitable, the health of both sides was not very healthy.

Galio's set of skills, that numerical damage was not something Ahri could compare to; at this time, the health had already reversed.

If he was hit by this reverse justice punch again and gave Galio a second passive, not only would he inevitably have to hand over Flash, but he might even have to hand over TP one after another!

Of course, if he couldn't see the pros and cons at the first time, this Flash indeed looked a bit dull.

"Ah, handing over Flash at three minutes, is it?" Remember said with some disbelief: "Is the laning pressure that high?"

Didn't everyone say before the match that Ahri is good at playing Galio?

"Uh, handing over Flash with half health is indeed a bit stable, but perhaps Left Hand considered that Xin Zhao might be nearby, worrying that if he was E'd, he might not be able to run even if he handed over Flash." Guan Zeyuan explained for Left Hand.

Wang Duoduo pointed to the mini-map: "It's coming; the junglers of both sides are leaning towards the mid lane; this is the third consecutive game they want to fight in the mid lane!"

The junglers of both sides knew very well that the mid-lane confrontation was so fierce that the opponent's jungler would definitely not be able to help but come.

But now there was an unexpected situation.

Ahri didn't have Flash at level three!

If this was going to be a 2v2 fight in the mid lane, there was no doubt that TES's winning percentage was lower.

Tian squatted for a while, thought of the encounters in the first two games, and finally chose to retreat.

After all, Ahri's health was still healthy; as long as she didn't give away her position, it was still not easy to be caught.

"Barrier, you don't need to squat; they shouldn't dare to take the initiative."

Ye Bo looked at Ahri's standing position and didn't want to come up to E at all, guessing that the opponent's jungler should have given up the idea.

He still had Flash in his hand and was completely fearless.

"OK!"

The junglers of both sides retreated one after another, and the mid lane began to return to normal laning.

It's just that because Ahri didn't have Flash in this wave, she obviously began to be less daring to press forward, worrying that she would be stuck by Galio's Flash face-to-face W start and cooperate with the jungler to kill, so she could only temporarily give up competing for lane priority to ensure safety.

And Ye Bo, seeing this, had his liberated thoughts flash and rotate, combined with analyzing the situation.

"Everyone be careful, the opponent's jungler should be going to catch people in this wave; if they want to catch, I feel it might be the top lane."

"Barrier, you can go to counter-jungle first; my support speed will definitely be faster."

The basis for Ye Bo to get this conclusion was very simple.

Ahri was forced to lose lane priority; if Vi still wanted to try to enter the jungle to counter-jungle at level three, what awaited her was Galio's first encirclement support, which was almost no different from looking for death.

If Vi went to brush her own jungle, Galio could also rely on the lane priority advantage at this time to support first and play out the jungle advantage.

And he had Flash in the mid lane, and the opponent didn't dare to come to bet on 2v2.

By elimination, it only left catching top or catching bot...

The combat power of the Zeri+Yuumi combination in the bot lane was not strong before level three, but the combat power of Kalista+Amumu was extremely strong.

Not only was it difficult to catch, but strong catching even had no small risks.

As for the top lane, Kainan against Ornn, the long-hand advantage meant that the minion wave was definitely difficult to control, and Brother Shengqiang's position at this time indeed looked like there was a slight opportunity.

It was still the same idea as the last game; Kainan was very weak in fighting before level six; as long as TES could catch a wave of Kainan first, perhaps they could rely on the advantage of the top lane to counter-charge the jungle, and there would be a battle in the upper half of the jungle.

Fighting to the third game.

Ye Bo was confident that he had completely seen through the small thoughts of Top Esports that didn't have many changes!

And after completing the layout of the command.

Ye Bo also put his mind back to laning.

The conditions for the "Hidden Quest" in this game were a bit peculiar; it was not actually winning the game.

It was: "Solo kill the opponent once!"

And after all, having already faced the matchup six times, Ye Bo understood the characteristics of Left Hand... winning against him might actually be simpler than killing him!

Just like when he first met Left Hand in ranked, he didn't find an opportunity for a whole game, and it was only the last wave of "Four-Degree Thrust" that pressed the line to complete the quest...

But in fact.

Ye Bo just felt that there was some opportunity in this wave of laning.

He knew very well how hard it would be to kill Ahri after level six—more importantly, many people didn't seem to know enough about the damage of Galio's complete set.

Just like the state of the opponent with about half health at this moment, it looked quite safe.

But in fact, it had already entered the "execution line"!

It's just that the prerequisite is to be able to complete the set completely, that is, it must be {W full charge} start or {E start}, hitting the full set of damage of "Double Passive."

And this obviously was not easy to do.

Ye Bo was looking for an opportunity.

At the same time, the OB perspective found that there was no fight in the mid lane, and also noticed changes in other directions.

"Tian is still squatting in the triangle grass! This should be waiting for Brother Shengqiang to come over and ward!" Guan Zeyuan guessed Vi's idea: "But Brother Shengqiang doesn't fall for it at all; if he comes out like this, it's actually very difficult to catch!"

"Barrier has already sneaked into the blue buff; he is so bold; does he not know Vi's position at all and dares to counter-jungle like this? You have to know that TES has a battle in the upper half of the jungle!"

Remember also analyzed and said: "The health of the mid laners of both sides will actually be about the same soon; Ahri can recover health after all..."

"Hey!?"

Just when the commentary desk was still analyzing the situation of the upper half of the jungle perspective.

The director's camera turned extremely fast and returned to the mid lane.

"No, what is Galio doing!!!"

Immediately after, three system prompts came from the mid lane.

【EDG Ye killed TES Knight!】

【First Blood!】

【EDG Ye executed! (Killed by defense tower)】

Everything happened too fast.

When the director's camera detected the battle and cut back, at the last moment, he only saw Ahri, whose taunt on her head had just ended, being smashed to death by the high-raised Colossal Smash!

"Solo kill? Solo kill!!!"

"Tower-diving solo kill!!!"

"And why was Galio still killed by the tower? How did he do it!"

"Replay, look at the replay quickly!"

Everyone in front of the screen leaned forward eagerly, wanting to see the truth of the replay.

They were eager to know what happened!

The screen was reversed to 15 seconds ago.

Both sides threw a wave of skills in front of the tower; Galio hit Ahri with a gale in the tower, but this time he didn't come up to hit the passive to clear the minions.

Instead, he just stood outside the tower and swayed.

This was also very normal; after all, pushing the lane in front of the tower would easily be consumed by Ahri.

Also due to Galio's stopping, the minion wave couldn't be cleared quickly, and the second wave of minions seemed to have a trend of pushing back.

Galio's Q skill is 11 seconds, and Ahri's Q is 4 seconds faster.

Left Hand was obviously unwilling to fight, just wanting to quickly clear the lane and go home to TP out to reset the laning.

Of course.

Although no matter how you look at it, Galio had no opportunity or idea to kill.

But Ahri still held the E skill tightly; this was her amulet.

But Galio was still swaying outside the tower, just quietly watching Ahri clearing the lane in front of the tower, doing nothing.

{The "Combat Kill Detection" time of Summoner's Rift is 15 seconds}

That is, at the 11th second, Galio took a step forward.

And this step... murderous intent appeared!

Ahri, who was obviously still unaware under the tower, only saw a golden light flash, and the giant statue was close to her, and then kicked back!

But that stone statue's back-kicking leg—kicked the solid defense tower!

The entity blocked the back-kicking distance of the E skill, and at the same time almost interrupted and canceled the casting action, instantly kicking out a punch to knock Ahri, who was close to her face, into the air!

A heavy punch smashed first, then a gale.

Then it was a {second taunt} to connect the full control time, while waiting for the auto-attack interval, and using W's damage to reset and refresh the passive.

The second Colossal Smash punch suddenly came out again!

{【Colossal Smash】 CD is 5 seconds, but Galio will reduce 3 seconds for every skill hit, and when possessing the Colossal Smash effect, Galio will gain a large amount of "attack speed" increase}

First, it was {Flash back-body reverse E wall} start.

Then it was {EAQ slow WA double passive heavy punch}!

The whole process was still within the combination of W taunt and E knock-up, letting Ahri press EEEEE to death, but she just couldn't kiss that bite!

The full set of damage from the moment the E skill started to the end was within 1.25 seconds of 0.5+0.75.

By the 13th second, Ahri immediately drank hatred under the heavy punch.

And the reason why Galio moved at the 11th second was because Ye Bo was incomparably confident in his damage calculation, knowing that the opponent would inevitably fall after this set was finished.

Although Galio couldn't safely get out of the tower even if he flashed E into the tower, he could resist two tower injuries.

The defense tower's 0.66% attack speed, those two defense tower auto-attacks, would just come after the 16th second...

When the replay ended.

The whole audience instantly erupted into an indescribable shock and buzzing!

"Holy crap!" Chujun jumped up excitedly, only feeling his whole body was so hot that he seemed to be truly substituted: "Master Ye is my god!!!"

"Turtle, don't look at this reverse E as simple; this actual combat is very difficult to press! I said it!"

"Especially this kind of distance reverse E, it's very easy to make mistakes!"

"Master Ye is definitely playing Galio secretly in private! I knew it! I knew it..."

【Chu Sheng seeing Galio killing everywhere feels better than being a snake, wishing he could jump in and apply for the Huluwa genealogy on the spot!】

【24K pure solo kill!!! This is really a collection of achievements!】

【There is no mid laner in LPL who can fight! Call LCK over, I'll let you call LCK over!】

【Who said Ye Wen can't play Galio? Now tell me! Talk!】

【Zhen is too outrageous, Galio is such a stupid hero and can still be operated, right!】

【Look at how scared the poor child Left Hand is; he won't even dare to be reborn, right?】

The camera below gave a close-up of Left Hand at the most appropriate time.

His upper and lower lips were slightly pursed, and his eyes looked at everything on the screen, seeming a bit evasive.

And the chill in his heart was rising uncontrollably!

Left Hand had played so many games with Ye Bo, and of course, he had long seen that the other party was a well-deserved operation monster.

But he actually thought this was nothing, thinking it was just the youthful frivolity of the "newcomer period," and after playing for a while and adapting to the arena, the newcomer would start to be tied up and dare not fight for his life to operate.

But in these three games, Ye Bo was refreshing his thoughts in every game, and every game made his impression of the other party deepen by one point.

The opponent's playstyle was simply unreasonably fierce!

Until this wave.

If there was a slight mistake, the skill connection of the card-second W was a little slower for a moment, perhaps even if it was the last heavy punch, if Ahri pressed E when it was auto-attacked, at least it could be a trade.

"He, how did he dare?"

Left Hand, who was timid by nature, at least at this moment, found it difficult to experience this feeling.

But for Ye Bo, this couldn't be counted as a problem at all.

Afraid of mistakes? That's simple!

As long as you don't dare to operate, don't think about suppressing the opponent, and don't take the initiative to attack.

To be honest, it's hard to make mistakes even if you want to.

And these things, for Ye Bo, were even more difficult to accept; he would rather take the risk of making mistakes.

And there are many ways to reduce mistakes.

Ye Bo's way of practicing Galio, in addition to watching videos, actually spent the most time on practicing the two key operations of "Reverse Kick E" and "Control Cancellation."

No way, he just likes this.

So his Galio, although still lacking in the use of hero overall characteristics, can only be crudely put into the general idea of his own roaming heroes.

But in terms of the solidity of the operation, Ye Bo is confident that it will not be weaker than anyone else.

This can be worthy of those polishing times.

"A key first blood solo kill appeared in the mid lane! Ahri didn't trade for a head, and still has to lose a lot of experience!"

"Brother Shengqiang's acting is exquisite; Tian noticed something was wrong but was still delayed; but Xin Zhao has already eaten and eaten in the jungle!"

"The mid laners of both sides TP out again, hey, but why didn't Ahri choose to push the lane? Isn't this still not saving the jungle..."

The commentary desk couldn't understand Left Hand's choice.

Reasonably speaking, Ahri TP out after dying first for 3 seconds, in fact, there is a chance to push the minion wave over first, and then rush into the jungle to help.

But Left Hand didn't.

He thought very simply, thinking that the 3-second time difference was not enough for the minion wave to enter the tower, and Galio might be able to get stuck in the minion wave after TP out.

And if that was the case, his laning time without an ultimate before level six might have to start the hell mode of being in danger at any time.

Strictly speaking, this is a choice without too much error.

It's just that, the jungler has to suffer.

"Galio and Ahri set off at the same time; although the support speed is the same, the combat power is different!"

Tian, who failed to squat top, heard the sad news from the mid lane, and the vision of wanting to enter the opponent's jungle was completely shattered, so he had to turn around and return to his own jungle.

As a result, he stepped into the jungle and found that it was empty!

Turning his head, there was actually a Xin Zhao who had just finished fighting the Gromp, turning out from the corner and wanting to find himself!

Xin Zhao was arrogant because he knew that his mid laner's support speed would not fall behind, just relying on having someone behind him.

Instead, the punch in Tian's hand was charged for a long time, but finally calmed down, and could only helplessly turn his head to blast out for escape.

Lee Sang-hyeok, who was also watching the live broadcast, frowned.

"Ahri hurt the jungle in this wave."

He could of course see Left Hand's thoughts, but obviously did not agree with this decision: "Galio is not so easy to hit the first hand; playing Ahri, you can't be so afraid."

Oner on the side was still sighing: "That Galio operation just now was a bit handsome, Brother Xianghe, is this move very difficult?"

Lee Sang-hyeok gave a positive answer without hesitation: "It's easy to make mistakes, but when necessary, only this move can keep people."

"This Galio plays very well..."

Although there was no change in the expression on his face.

But Lee Sang-hyeok was very surprised in his heart.

He didn't expect that the opponent not only had all kinds of rare and unpopular things, but even had such a performance in such a "traditional" hero?

This person...

"Doing this, the mid-jungle probably won't have any sound before level six," Benji, who was not optimistic about TES in the BP stage, had already started to sing bad.

"Their BP was not done well in the first place; I don't know how to fight in this lineup; how to cross Galio to kill AD? A reverse big will force the person who forcibly opens the group to death!"

"Unless the opposite side has a big loophole in the formation division in the group, otherwise this group battle, I see that there is no way to fight if it develops!"

Tian, who suffered setbacks in the jungle, tried to go to the mid lane to gank again.

But Ahri walked forward, aiming at the light E skill, but was accurately dodged by Galio with a "backward step."

Galio playing Ahri is such a matchup; the E skill is actually "mutual restraint."

Theoretically, whoever comes out first has the opportunity to be operated.

Ahri can easily interrupt Galio in the E2 flight, and Galio can also use the E skill's first stage to instantly counter-charge to retreat, or use the second stage's control cancellation to force displacement.

And Ahri, who missed the kiss, exposed her intention, making Ye Bo realize the jungler's position.

Directly calling the nearby Xin Zhao to come and flank!

Previously, by solo killing in the mid lane, helping the jungler establish a counter-jungle advantage, at present, EDG mid-jungle is already a two-person advantage!

Xin Zhao chased all the way, and finally forced out Vi's Flash.

After that, Galio was not in a hurry to catch the side lane.

Because TES's top lane was a cowardly Ornn, the success rate was not high, which meant they could only catch bot, and the intention was obvious and easily watched by the opponent, leading to no success and wasting rhythm.

Ye Bo's understanding of Galio's so-called "utility" is indeed not very deep.

But his thinking is also very simple.

Galio just kept cooperating with Xin Zhao to crazily enter the opponent's jungle, counter-jungling in a strong looting way, and putting the battlefield in the jungle instead of under the tower.

Facts have proved that this is undoubtedly a wise choice.

TES's jungle was tortured and became EDG mid-jungle's backyard!

Tian had no energy to threaten the lower half of the jungle, on one hand, he had to be careful to help the bot lane counter-squat and dare not expose his figure, and on the other hand, he had to run for his life to avoid fighting and exchange jungles to preserve his development to the greatest extent.

But in this way, Vi's position was almost a bright card, and she was muted throughout.

"Tian is crazily expelled in the jungle... it's over!"

"The powerful punch was interrupted by the justice punch! Vi was caught by Galio in the jungle again, and cooperated with Xin Zhao to complete the kill!"

"Player Ye's Galio is now simply the strongest Zenith Shield behind the jungle!"

"With him, Xin Zhao's invasion is like entering no man's land!"

"The gap in the jungle is being pulled open little by little; if this continues, it might affect the level of the key resource group..."
