Chapter 195: Small Peek Doesn't Count as Cheating! Strange Movements!
Ye Bo didn't notice the gaze coming from the side at all, and was concentrating on looking at the lineup in the loading interface.
"Everyone be careful, the opponent might want to invade at level one."
Because of the existence of 【PROJECT】 and 【Spellthief】 and 【Demacia】 etc. before.
The number of "Level 5 heroes" that Ye Bo has mastered is actually quite considerable!
And although these level 5 heroes cannot all be taken to the professional stage, and most are not deep enough.
But thanks to this, the most direct benefit is the improvement of Ye Bo's ability to "interpret lineups."
Understanding every hero sufficiently naturally makes one better at putting oneself in their shoes to guess the effects and capabilities when these heroes are combined into a set of lineups.
For example, WBG's lineup, Jax and Nautilus are both good at level-one fights, having quite good strong engage capabilities.
More importantly, their own Ashe + Nami, these two long-range poke heroes, fight Lucian + Nautilus, these two ultimate short-range heroes—unless Nautilus can hook the AD every wave, the laning will be visibly difficult to fight back!
So standing in WBG's perspective.
If it were him, he might try to find a possibility to break the game at level one.
If the bot lane could gain some advantage at the start, the pattern might be different.
"If they come... I have an idea!" Beryl didn't question.
Ye Bo listened and felt it made sense: "I think it's feasible!"
The game loading is complete.
The ten people just stepped into the Rift.
The god's-eye view saw the Red side WBG, all five people rushing toward V5's bottom half as soon as they left the base!
"WBG should want to fight a level-one team fight!"
Sure enough, WBG really had the idea of coming to the bottom half to fight a level-one team fight.
There is no absolutely correct design and process in the Rift; it is more like a fighting beast chess, a way to restrain another way.
And every game between the two sides, without extra information, what moves they will blindly pick is the exhibition of the game.
Just like this level-one wave.
If V5 was standing in the most common "single-line formation," then no matter which direction WBG moved, the opponent would have at most 2-3 people.
At that time, WBG could rely on the advantage of numbers to forcibly invade!
The game point is nothing more than which half to go to, which has a better chance of catching people.
The command Liu Qingsong made was the bottom half, the entrance in front of the F6 gate.
Unfortunately, just as the five WBG members walked into the river, they directly saw a "sapling" fly to the entrance of the jungle.
And the Zoe who appeared later just looked at them, and immediately turned and retreated.
Not even giving the chance for a flash Q, nor having the intention to grab vision outside.
WBG found that even the top laner Maokai ran over; this clearly was a conscious defense!
"They are so cautious..."
"Then forget it, wait for a chance to see if we can catch the bot lane."
Although their own side has an advantage in a level-one team fight.
But if the opponent is also five people, they have to forcibly top it and enter under the condition of vision exposure; if they are ambushed, it's hard to say!
Occupying the jungle vision in advance by catching people off guard is heaven and earth compared to exposing themselves and then face-checking the bush.
WBG is still considered clear-headed and didn't forcibly do it.
The bot lane and jungler returned to the jungle, and the mid and top also walked toward the lane one after another.
On the way back to the lane, they even saw the playful Zoe dancing in the mid lane, swinging a yo-yo.
But when TheShy's Jax walked into his own top jungle, and without any precautions, walked straight to the top lane... the fans at the scene were all screaming anxiously!
"Don't, Shy-ge!!"
"Oh my, why walk there!?"
This wave, looking from the OB perspective, seems to be TheShy's "lack of discipline" performance; if he had walked back to the top lane from the first tower or even the jungle behind the base, it would definitely be fine.
But if it were from TheShy's perspective, there really wasn't much of a problem.
After all, in his and WBG's players' perspective, these five V5 people should all be in the bottom half.
Even the top laner showed his head, what danger could there be?
The biggest gap between players and viewers is that players don't have a god's-eye view.
So the viewers see it clearly.
But there is a small problem that is difficult to detect from WBG's perspective.
The reason WBG concluded that all five V5 people were in the bottom half is because even Maokai, who shouldn't have come down, appeared, and the positions of the others were very obvious; this is a conclusion that doesn't need too much thinking.
Including seeing people and immediately retreating because of Nautilus's hook deterrence, not giving the space to flash-hook and swap skills, is also a reasonable behavior.
But in fact.
The ones who "truly appeared" in their vision just now... were actually only two people.
Jax walked into the bush without any precautions.
But just as his footsteps stepped in, a 【Aqua Prison】 water bubble was cast in advance, falling from the sky!
Jax couldn't react in time and was instantly imprisoned in the air for 1.5 seconds.
And what followed was... the three people from the opponent's bot and jungle, plus a small sapling!
"Wo-chao!?"
TheShy blurted out the most standard Chinese in his language library.
Jax faced the concentrated fire of three people plus a sapling; his health dropped extremely fast, and as soon as he landed from the stun, he fruitlessly activated Counter Strike, and immediately flashed over the wall into the red buff pit after the stun!
But it was of no avail.
Jax being caught in this position, whether he learned E and flashed over the wall, or learned Q and jumped over the wall, he couldn't run.
Because there is Ashe!
Although Ashe's ability to "fight hard" at level one is average, relying on the passive 【Frost Shot】, every basic attack has a slowing ability—"pursuit" is absolutely one of the most rogue existences in the League.
Ashe and Wukong ended the control and immediately followed with flashes over the wall!
In this position, even if there was a jungler behind WBG, V5 would still have one more person.
Not to mention Zoe from the mid lane had already come over to support in advance!
Ashe relied on the frost arrow to stick, and Wukong also followed with Nimbus Strike to constantly chase and A.
Continuous slowing made Jax fundamentally unable to open up the distance, and he was hard-chased to death by Ashe and Wukong!
【First Blood!】
"First blood is born! The head was given to Ashe!"
"Although V5 handed over an extra flash, this first blood is absolutely profitable! This bot lane laning was already very uncomfortable!"
"Have to say... V5's movements are really a bit strange."
All three casters on the desk felt that this wave, just looking at it from the god's-eye view, was a bit unbelievable.
Wawa joked: "How to say this, if it were seen in a ranked game, I would definitely shout that the opponent 'cheated'!"
What makes everyone confused is.
When leaving the base, the three V5 bot and jungle people walked straight toward the opponent's top jungle with a clear goal, without half a hesitation.
But WBG also walked together as five when leaving the base.
That is to say, if WBG chose the top half when leaving the base, it is very likely they would have bumped into the three people head-on.
Or not saying they went to the top half, even if they went to the bottom half.
If the opponent's five people didn't walk from the F6 entrance, but walked from the bot lane's tri-bush, V5, because they fundamentally didn't send anyone to set up vision, also couldn't grasp the opponent's whereabouts.
Subsequently, because the distance was too far, Jax would also most likely directly B back to base.
Everything, it looks like a bit of a "coincidence," everything just happened to bump into each other.
But could it really be a coincidence?
Clearly not!
First, it was Ye Bo guessing that the opponent might abandon the "defensive positioning" of the single-line formation and try to hold a team to invade at level one.
But still the same question, why determine where the opponent would come from?
This, it has to be mentioned that Ye Bo and Beryl, these two people, when discussing their thoughts on level-one design, collided with something.
It can also be considered a "special understanding" of the map that they discovered together.
Namely: the four conventional paths of jungle opening, and the differences between the 8 entrances that finally exist due to the difference between Red and Blue sides.
Every difference here has the possibility of being taken out to make an article.
And for the Red side—the "safest" invasion route is the F6 entrance in the bot lane.
The reason is very simple: because this road has the "shortest path," and the whole process does not need to "face-check the bush"!
For the Red side.
The entrance to the blue buff area, as soon as you come in, there is a bush at the door.
And the river entrance below has three bushes connected one after another!
The tri-bush entrance in the bottom half doesn't even need to be mentioned—due to the influence of the dragon pit wall, not only is the path the longest, and the "necessary path" tri-bush can only be face-checked, and once you go in, you have to face a fork in the road, which is extremely easy to be camped.
By comparison, this F6 entrance is obviously the shortest, can arrive the fastest, and is the safest path!
Actually, in normal ranked games, here, it is precisely the main outbreak point of level-one team fights!
Of course, most people didn't realize it was for this reason, they just had the habit of seeing others play and walking here, seeming to treat this place as some kind of "gathering place."
However, just like this, it is naturally not enough.
This theory can only prove that in most cases, temporary designs will subconsciously choose this road.
What if the opponent just doesn't play by the rules?
So—this requires "information induction."
Shake the top laner over, and deliberately show the mid laner, letting the opponent form associations!
And if Maokai and Zoe didn't see anyone coming, because V5 also stood in two roads, the whereabouts of the opponent's five people are also very easy to guess after the elimination method.
Unless the opponent has extra information, or someone secretly touched V5's voice channel...
Otherwise, the enemy bot lane pair wouldn't have reason to walk to their own top jungle, so the position in the top lane would still be an advantageous number team fight!
This "reverse camping" mentioned by Beryl has a non-small probability of being able to camp a returning jungler, or top laner!
Of course.
Even if they didn't ambush anyone in the end, at worst, just return to base on the spot.
Anyway, there is no loss!
However, the barrage was all stringing, and no one cared about so many deep details.
【Jianghu rules, small peek doesn't count as cheating, okay】
【V5 team is so annoying! Every day they play dirty tricks! Winning doesn't count! Winning doesn't count!!】
【Can only say the discipline of this dock is absolutely amazing, honestly returning to base B and walking to lane, is it that hard?】
【The taste is right! The taste is too right!】
【Heh, all wrong! Send a disadvantage first at the start, so that if you are solo-killed later, it doesn't count as a solo kill, and if you aren't solo-killed, you can say that even if you are at a disadvantage at the start, you can be at an advantage, worthy of being the world's number one top's anti-gank!】
【Rookie: Grass! How did I not think of that! Xiao Jiang is not brotherly enough, should have said earlier that I would go and send one at level one, so that I would have an excuse later!】
Ye Bo was manipulating ctrl+3 while waiting for the minion wave to arrive.
The Zoe of the 【Star Guardian】 skin was dancing a playful dance.
He chose this skin, but he didn't think about triggering any special skin eggs.
Mainly because a guy was pestering him, insisting on an outfit like the ninja sister.
"Master Ye feels so relaxed, he's still laughing!" Wawa looked at the camera screen and couldn't help but tease.
"Eh Pyl, then according to your understanding, how is Zoe vs Syndra?" Miller didn't dare to take the words, and turned to harm Pyl again.
Pyl stood straight and honest this time, blurted out: "Five-five split!"
"Really want to say, S11 I remember Scout's Zoe dodged 7 Qs from ShowMaker's Syndra at level one, playing a huge laning advantage... but it was also that year's S11 spring split, and it was also Scout's Zoe, who was solo-killed at level three by Knight's Syndra!"
"You have to know, Scout is already one of the best Zoe users, and there was still such a big fluctuation deviation, showing that the laning of these two heroes is still very dependent on on-the-spot performance and player state."
Pyl rambled on for a bit before finally smoothing over his words.
Miller smiled and helped him add: "However, Syndra has been reworked after all, this game should also be the first time the new version of Syndra has laning against Zoe on the professional stage, it's really hard to say."
"And in this game, player Ye brought ignite again, which can also be considered his standard Zoe style of play, which is to pull the suppression to the full!"
"The pressure in the mid lane is really not small..."
The caster desk was right.
There is no absolute superiority or inferiority in the laning of these two heroes.
Both are: if the skills are accurate, no one can beat anyone, if the skills are inaccurate, no one can beat anyone.
It really depends on performance and state.
And Rookie, a veteran player with seniority, according to reason, what big waves hasn't he seen.
But in this game, just from the firm expression on his face in the camera below, which seems to be cosplaying another good brother, one can clearly feel.
His pressure is really great...
It is worth mentioning—Ye Bo understands Syndra very well.
It is truly understanding.
This has to be said about the last game of the 2022 summer split regular season, when he triggered the "Dual Destiny Challenge" for the first time against the BLG where Scout and Uzi were.
The reward for that challenge was the "Level 7 understanding" of Syndra!
The minion waves intersected.
The director suddenly turned the perspective to the bot lane, which started fighting fiercely directly.
"Ashe and Nami are really showing their faces, wanting to start pressing from level one!"
Ashe has an extra long sword and red potion.
Even without flash, she started to put pressure at level one.
"Liu Qingsong should want to find a chance to hook... hooked!"
Nautilus seized the opportunity, aiming at Nami who "carelessly walked" and hooked.
But the fact is, even if Beryl's positioning ability can't be called top-notch, there is no reason to give such a natural outward positioning—clearly, it was deliberately given to the opponent to hook.
Liu Qingsong actually felt it too.
But Deft's positioning was ambiguous and didn't give a chance, so he could only hook, otherwise the ADC fundamentally couldn't get close to the minion wave.
And the reason Beryl specifically gave the position was because Nami learned Q at level one, not W or E that could be consumed straightforwardly.
If Nami nakedly Q'd, the hit rate was clearly not high; once the Q was empty and lost deterrence, the opponent's bot lane would master the initiative, and level one would be a failed suppression.
Operation is not enough, understanding comes to make up for it.
Since it is difficult to hit the opponent's positioning... then aim at your own feet!
"Nami directly water bubbles at her feet! Nautilus hooked but was knocked up as soon as he landed, even failing to hit the passive A!"
"At the same time, Nami Q gave herself a passive movement speed and immediately opened up, Lucian couldn't hit the Press the Attack but Ashe could chase and A Nautilus, the equipment has an advantage, WBG doesn't dare to pursue deeply!"
"The health exchange is very successful! V5's bot lane is worthy of being an old partner, truly visibly tacit!"
The caster desk noticed the plight of WBG's bot lane.
"This way Weiwei must make a choice, if he doesn't come to the bot lane, feels like the bot lane will play very uncomfortably..."
Although everyone knew WBG's bot lane was at a disadvantage at the start.
But the accident of the first blood in the team fight still showed this disadvantage in advance!
Xin Zhao, who was clearing blue, looked at Ashe having no flash, and had thoughts.
"They play like this, the jungler will definitely come... I'll come directly at level two!"
"Wukong should have to clear to three, this hero won't gank too early."
"Can come, but level one is not easy to kill, Ashe's equipment is very good, best to wait for us to reach level two!" Liu Qingsong coordinated.
Xin Zhao finished clearing blue, directly changed and walked to the river bush and activated the sweeper, confirming there was no vision under his feet.
Then he started a long camp!
Normal situation.
The level of the jungle and the bot lane, generally, is when
Therefore, basically no jungler would spend the time to clear two camps just to gank—they either gank at level 2 after one camp, or they only gank after a fast level 3.
And Weiwei was precisely exploiting this counter-intuitive logic.
He positioned himself early; if Wukong also came for a level 2 gank, Xin Zhao would absolutely not fear a 3v3—and if Wukong cleared three camps, he could catch an unexpected window of time to initiate a gank!
Ashe and Nami's suppression didn't let up; they had already pushed the minion wave forward rapidly, reaching level 2 first.
WBG's bot lane was only two minions away; they feigned a retreat, and Nautilus stepped forward, preparing to use his support item to execute a minion.
Looking at the positioning of Ashe and Nami, he felt the opponents were practically dead men walking.
But.
Just as the bot lane reached level 2.
Ashe and Nami suddenly turned around, stopped attacking the nearby minions, and inexplicably ran toward the bot lane river!
Weiwei was initially delighted, thinking the opponents were coming to place a ward. Then, he saw Wukong emerge from the direction of the tri-bush!
Wukong, also with four CS.
"He's camping too!?"
"We're not level 2! We're not level 2!"
V5 had caught the level difference of two minions. Since their own bot lane wasn't level 2 yet, Xin Zhao couldn't possibly dare to take a 3v3 like this and had no choice but to retreat.
But Nami cast E on Ashe for a speed boost, and Ashe fired a Volley, pinning Xin Zhao down!
Xin Zhao had no choice but to decisively burn his Flash.
"Xun's camp was so intuitive! A blind-vision camp!" Wawa couldn't help but praise: "This young player's thought process is so clear!"
And just at this moment.
The director suddenly switched the view to mid lane in an emergency.
"Oh my god!?"
"How is Rookie about to die!!"
