Chapter 298: Invisible

Truth be told, Wei's playstyle is not the same as Kanavi's, which requires teammates to sacrifice themselves to feed him.

The core of Wei's playstyle is also doing things for the organization.

It's just that in terms of "behavioral style," Wei prefers to lead the execution of tactics himself, even if it means slightly sacrificing his teammates' early tempo; after all, the ultimate goal is to feed back into the lanes.

This might also be the reason why he was extremely ill-suited for BLG—after all, apart from Yagao, the top and bottom lanes were very accustomed to holding the lead themselves, making it easy for conflicts to arise.

Xun is different.

The playstyle he is accustomed to is prioritizing the "comfort" of his teammates!

Unless absolutely necessary, Xun would rather slightly sacrifice his own farm to prioritize "not interfering with laning."

Honestly, these two execution strategies cannot be said to be better or worse; they are simply the individual habits of the players.

Just like this execution strategy of Xun's, there might be situations where, if teammates sacrificed a little, a bigger result could be obtained, but it turns into only being able to harvest small gains.

However, Xun has almost never felt this "shortcoming."

After all, he has two additional CPU backup hidden energy supports; many times when such situations arise, someone will help him correct them.

The same display is like this subsequent move of Xun's.

He didn't choose to continue farming along the way, but instead took a huge detour, secretly heading to the opponent's jungle!

Obviously, this is not the best decision.

After all, although the Seeing Seeing Wukong's health was chipped away, he still held his Smite, and the 3v3 combat power in the top half was still in an absolute dominant position!

But what Xun thought was that although this invasion might not necessarily result in a kill, it would force the Seeing Seeing Wukong to recall regardless.

In that way, the opponent's jungle tempo would inevitably be in chaos, and it would be very difficult to launch an attack in the next few minutes, which could also be considered helping the top lane, which was under great pressure, to ease up.

As for Xun's confidence, it was because he watched the ward placed by the opponent; he was very clear that Seeing Seeing Wukong couldn't possibly have any more "defensive wards."

That is to say, this invasion of his was absolutely unknown!

It's just that he didn't expect Wei hadn't left either, but instead made a return trip!

Back to the blue buff area!

Wei's thinking was also very simple.

Vi being able to Q in at just the right time to steal the Smite meant it wasn't hard to guess that there was a ward at his feet; it also meant the opponent didn't have outer jungle vision.

He had already called for the top laner Darius to push the lane, while he himself quietly hugged the wall and circled back from above.

He wanted to use the Smite cooldown gap from the brush behind the blue-side tier-one tower to steal the opponent's Gromp!

As long as he could succeed, Seeing Seeing Wukong would still be considered to have gained a jungle advantage over the opponent, and he could also force the Vi to the bottom half with confirmed information!

Vi farming the Gromp would inevitably lose health, and the opponent's status would be pulled back to the same level, without any worries!

"What are these two junglers doing?" Sun Sun Sun Yalong narrowed his eyes.

"Are they doing the Great Shift? One circling above, one circling below, missing each other entirely!"

And when the two arrived at their positions, they were both a bit stunned at first.

"Not here?"

"Didn't come to farm this?"

Both of their lines of thinking had appeared with slight deviations.

But Xun's first reaction was: Seeing Seeing Wukong must have guessed he was going to be invaded, so for safety, he recalled first.

Wei's first reaction was: Vi must be going to gank!

Both gave reminders to their teammates.

Then, without hesitation, they started farming the jungle monsters.

But when they respectively finished clearing each other's Gromp and F6, and still didn't see the other appear, they both reacted instantly.

"He's in my jungle!"

"He's in our jungle!"

Both mid and top laners reacted.

However, the turning point of the divergence appeared here.

Because Xun had stolen the blue buff, he had already reached Level 3 after finishing the F6.

Seeing Seeing Wukong, however, was only Level 2!

Even more fatal was that, because Wei had just given the warning that "Vi went to gank,"

both mid and top lanes were being pushed in at this moment!

"He's been discovered, Wei!!" Doinb shouted, clutching his head: "He's going to be surrounded by three people! It seems he's completely finished!"

"No, he can still execute to the tower! He can execute!"

"Just be careful of Kai'Sa!!"

The mid and top teammates' minion waves were completely unable to move.

Seeing the opponent's mid and top had already arrived, Wei decisively made the decision to execute to the tower, directly using Seeing Seeing Wukong's clone to jump over the wall and run toward the high ground.

Doinb, seeing it from the God's-eye view, naturally thought of it too; he knew he definitely couldn't give it to Kai'Sa, who had the opportunity to throw a W from a long distance, and he was even prepared to flash to dodge...

But just then.

A shimmering {Void Seeker} had already flown over!

Wei shuddered all over; he flashed to jump away the moment he saw the purple light appear—but he was still "mysteriously" tagged with Void Plasma!

"Holy crap!?"

"Didn't dodge it!!"

"Ah????"

The one with the biggest reaction was Xiaohai Xiaohai Xiaohai Youshen, who was so anxious he even kicked his slippers off into the gap under the table: "Hey! What exactly is Wei doing!!!"

"How is Rookie supposed to play if he gives away a First Blood like this!"

"Can't he give it to the jungler!? Give it to the top laner too! Just don't give it to Kai'Sa, I beg you!!!"

But obviously, giving it to Kai'Sa was the wisest choice.

Seeing Seeing Wukong had nowhere to run; dragging it out any longer would just be giving the opponent's jungler and top laner assists and experience.

Wei could only drag it out for a tiny bit more time, and once he saw someone walking out from behind, he immediately executed to the tower.

{First Blood! }

The sound of the First Blood completely extinguished the hope of executing to the tower.

The bullet comments were filled with mockery for a time, and even Wei's fans didn't know what to say at this moment.

After all, not only did he fail to dodge it, he had also inexplicably wasted his Flash.

But.

Wei, sitting at the player's seat, also seemed very confused.

You know, although the projectile speed of Kai'Sa's W skill is indeed very fast, for professional players, it shouldn't be difficult to dodge with a Flash at least.

Wei is also a high-ranked player who has been in the top 50 of the Korean server for years; there shouldn't be any problems with his mechanics.

And such a low-level mistake shouldn't have happened.

Wei was a bit puzzled.

Clearly, the first time he saw Kai'Sa's W, it was still quite a distance away from him.

The observer during the LPL regular season stage was obviously a bit amateurish and didn't notice anything strange; the replay started directly from Void Seeker hitting Seeing Seeing Wukong, adding a slow-motion effect thinking it looked cool.

And after Seeing Seeing Wukong respawned again, he found that the red buff had also been taken!

This meant that Wei could only barely clear the Krugs now, and then he could only farm downward.

The jungle route was exposed, which put even more pressure on the top lane Darius.

But, a specialist player still has their "specialist" logic.

Because K'Sante had just performed a jungle support, his level was slightly behind by half a wave of minions; at this time, he was also thinking about recalling immediately after pushing the wave.

But Qingtian, seemingly retreating on purpose to prevent a gank, suddenly activated {Ghost} to chase the moment he leveled up by Q-ing a minion, without any warning.

Darius's classic "Long-Lane Ghost" playstyle!

K'Sante was actually a bit guarded, but K'Sante had no long-range wave clearing ability.

Qingtian's extremely sharp and proficient distance control completed a forced close-in, and he successfully pulled him back after the W and E mind games, forcing K'Sante's Flash with one wave!

And relying on the laning initiative regained by the top lane's hero advantage, Wei was finally able to pull back the situation in the second wave of jungle mind games, returning to the right track.

Of course, it was only returning to the right track.

Because Ahri didn't have much of an advantage against the Hail of Blades Kai'Sa in laning, and Seeing Seeing Wukong's level was significantly behind, and the top lane only had lane priority without a significant gap, it was naturally impossible to invade the opponent's jungle.

On the contrary, Xun, proficiently taking advantage of the situation!

He pretended to be doing the dragon, but actually Q-ed over the wall from the mid lane into the blue jungle, bypassing the opponent's entrance ward.

He dropped another entrance ward, directly crouching in the brush outside the opponent's blue buff wall, waiting for the prey to arrive!

Seeing Seeing Seeing Wukong walk in from the mid lane entrance, he waited for the opponent to start farming the Wolves, with most of their skills already used.

Then he approached from the wall and started charging his Vault Breaker!

"Holy crap, Vi is here!"

Wei was sniped by a punch to the face.

The most uncomfortable thing was that his W had already been used and couldn't jump over the wall, so he could only hurriedly ask his teammates for help: "Can you look at me!"

Rookie abandoned the minions about to reach the tower for the first time, only throwing out a Q from far away to reach Level 6, and immediately supported toward the bottom jungle.

"Don't run down! Draven is coming too!" support Mark reminded him.

"Don't run toward the mid either! Kai'Sa can fly!" JackeyLove, who finally displayed his understanding of skin-based champions, shouted loudly: "But his ultimate is very short!"

The flight distance of Kai'Sa's ultimate {Killer Instinct} increases with the skill level; at Level 1, it's only 2000 yards.

About the distance of one screen.

But Seeing Seeing Wukong had no Flash, and there was a certain gap in equipment and level, and he was being beaten up by Vi!

Rookie, seeing this, didn't hesitate at all to activate his ultimate {Spirit Rush} to rush to the jungle.

Xun, however, didn't retreat even half a step—Ahri's burst damage couldn't possibly kill him instantly; once the opponent wanted to engage in a prolonged fight, Kai'Sa would be able to fly over directly.

Not to mention that their own bottom lane also had a Draven brother who was thirsty for combat!

Wei, listening, could only run toward his own tier-two tower, but the speed at which his health was dropping didn't seem to be stopping.

"Wei seems to be getting solo-killed again!"

Xika issued a strange shout in a predictive manner, but immediately there was an excited scream from the side.

"ROOKIE!!!"

Only to see Ahri accelerate the pursuit with her second R, and the moment she kicked out her third R, she threw out an E-Flash.

Ahri flew from the mid tower to the blue buff area with four flashes, hitting the Charm on the Vi who was moving in the correct direction from the longest distance!

It even happened to interrupt the Vault Breaker that Wei had just managed to charge up!

"Extreme! Heavens, Rookie is still burning! Even after the jungler pitted him like this, he still used Flash to save him!" Xiaohai Xiaohai Xiaohai Youshen hammered his chest and abdomen in frustration.

"What is greatness? This is true greatness! Truly salt-free!!"

Sun Sun Sun Yalong looked at Xiaohai Xiaohai Xiaohai Youshen, who seemed even more like a troll than himself, and said speechlessly: "He saved him, but Vi has Flash and definitely still can't catch Seeing Seeing Wukong, but the problem is, isn't this a huge loss? I think it's better to let the jungler die!"

Xiaohai Xiaohai Xiaohai Youshen didn't hear the sarcasm in his words and nodded in full agreement: "Exactly! Let this trash jungler die!"

"But actually it doesn't matter, anyway this dragon definitely can't be taken, by the time the Rift Herald fight starts, Ahri's ultimate will definitely be refreshed."

"Hey! Watch out for Kai'Sa!!!"

Seeing Kai'Sa aiming from behind, he shouted anxiously.

However, he could see it, and Wei, who had already died once, was naturally even more sensitive.

Wei also shouted while adjusting his position: "Brother Rookie! Help me block it!"

Although Ahri was at a distance from him, by adjusting his position slightly, he could keep them in a straight line.

Seeing Seeing Wukong was about to reach the corner of the tier-two tower; in this small path in the jungle, being in a straight line meant there were almost no "blind spots"!

As long as he turned the corner into the tier-two tower, the opponent wouldn't have vision, and the accuracy of a blind shot would naturally be much lower!

But, Kai'Sa had already fired.

It's just that this time, the observer's camera happened to be within the field of view.

Everyone seemed to hear an explosion sound of "pong" first, and only then saw the {Void Seeker} fired.

"Eh!?"

"What the heck?"

"No? Where's the missile!?"

This time, everyone seemed to have discovered something wrong.

Because that Void Seeker missile... it seemed, it only appeared in the first half of the shot.

Then it actually disappeared!!

Of course.

To be more precise, it didn't "disappear"—it just "couldn't be seen" in the {normal perspective}.

Friends who often launch intercontinental missiles know that the core means for a missile to evade radar detection and interception is actually "flying high enough," flying into the atmosphere makes it very difficult to detect.

And as everyone knows, League of Legends is a very, very scientific game.

Yes.

When Kai'Sa fires Void Seeker from a "high place," the "launch position" of the missile will also be at a high altitude, so the subsequent "flight path" will also be at a high altitude.

The reason why the audience could still see the first half was just because the OB perspective zoomed out.

But in the normal game perspective client... there is absolutely no high-altitude perspective!

More importantly, one only needs to grasp the timing of A-ing an explosive fruit + connecting W, and Kai'Sa can fire her missile in any direction, achieving the effect of "adjusting the trajectory."

Wei thought Kai'Sa's ultimate distance wasn't enough, and he was in a straight line with Ahri, so he should have been very safe.

But in reality.

The coverage of {Void Seeker} is 3000 yards at all levels, half as far again as the Level 1 ultimate.

The next moment.

Another Void Seeker, which had almost flown to the monkey's face before revealing itself, hit and exploded!

It could be called "Invisible Cloud Guidance"!

Seeing Seeing Wukong was once again hit by the Void Plasma and turned into a stone monkey.

"Holy crap!!!" Xiaohai Xiaohai Xiaohai Youshen opened his mouth wide and clutched his head, shouting: "Why!!!!"
