~9 min read 1,734 words

"Does TheShy play Crocodile?"

Ye Bo was looking for the hero he wanted to play in the hero column, muttering: "I don't really want to use long hands to fight short hands, I feel like I can't test anything... Just this one!"

"Numerical values must be fought with numerical values. Iron Man is also numerical! Watch me directly bring an Ignite... Eh?"

"I've been fooled!"

"The opponent seems to be Vayne top?"

The live broadcast still has some delays, and the chat's Swift Scout can't come back to report in time.

Just seeing Ye Bo just finished selecting Iron Man in the third floor of the blue side, the opponent actually selected Vayne again after selecting Jinx on the first floor!

And as long as you know this matchup.

Top lane Iron Man vs Vayne.

Almost belongs to a "99 to 1" matchup!

It belongs to the kind of matchup that you can't play even if you know a little bit, let alone this is TheShy's Vayne.

Fortunately, the mid laner on the fifth floor of the blue side is obviously a Chinese fan, and he was excited to death when he ranked with Ye Bo, and was actively proposing to change positions with him in the chat box.

However, Ye Bo didn't change in the end.

Just after thinking about it, he let him help select Varus, and settled the exchange of heroes—Varus top!

Teammates were not surprised by this, it is normal for top-tier games to have a few people who specialize in unpopular heroes.

But just entered the loading interface.

The mid laner on the opposite side was surprised and "fortunate."

"Mom! Why is Varus top!" Doinb put on a regretful expression.

"Pity, pity, the streamer thought he could lane against Master Ye again, hey, this can only be left to Shy Brother!"

【Coin Brother, stop pretending, just took the initiative to change floors with Lao Shy, and deliberately lit up Crocodile first, it's clearly wanting to swing the opponent~~~】

【Big B saw the chat saying the opponent is YE, and only dared to choose a hero like Crocodile mid, coward!】

【Horse head is shameless! Only knows how to fight short hands with long hands! Only knows how to fight cold weapons with hot weapons! Only plays hero restraint!】

【Huo Huo, can only say that evil people need evil people to grind, Ye Master's Varus top is just a head-on fight】

【Wait, Horse head is going to be punished by God this time, it's fine if he doesn't write an application to play red glasses, and he doesn't even use the real skin of the top ten players! Even dare to use LWX's skin! Crime plus three degrees!!! Can already use the Horse Head Guillotine!】

The mid lane live stream room is full of stirrers interacting.

And the two top lane live stream rooms were quiet for a while, obviously looking forward to this rare "matchup" between the two players!

The rune selection of both sides is very particular.

Varus is {Hail of Blades} with the strongest burst ability, Vayne is {Fleet Footwork}.

Ye Bo's consideration is that Vayne is extremely flexible, and Varus is very difficult to have a chance to "stand and fight" with the opponent. Hail of Blades can maximize the damage of each wave of health trades.

TheShy's consideration is that Vayne is not as good as Varus in terms of hard damage, so he must maximize mobility and recovery ability, using movement speed and displacement to dodge the opponent's three non-directional skills QER as much as possible.

Ye Bo quickly entered a serious state.

Varus followed the minion wave on the line.

But before reaching the mid-line, Vayne in the grass directly used the passive movement speed to walk out and steal a crossbow arrow!

Triggering the acceleration of Fleet Footwork, Vayne immediately stepped back quickly, instantly entered the grass to pull off the minion hatred, and then walked out again immediately.

Ye Bo saw the "intention" of the other party.

First of all, Vayne didn't use any skills at this time, and there was no three-ring passive hanging on him.

This means that the other party probably learned Q at level one.

If Varus rashly uses E or Q to consume, it is possible to be dodged by Vayne's Q 【Tumble】.

Taking a step back, even if the QE hit successfully, Vayne could also use the acceleration and the cover of the grass to forcibly retreat—Varus's level one E lasts more than ten seconds, Vayne's level one Q is only 5 seconds.

In the following ten seconds, Vayne can use the super long CD difference between the two sides to find the next opportunity to trade health and consume!

This... is just the first layer.

If you understand this layer, then Varus's best handling method next should be to go straight to the grass and place a ward so that the other party cannot pull in the grass.

Using his own minion wave advantage + Hail of Blades health trade advantage, he can drive Vayne away, and also earn back a lot of health.

But if you really did that.

That's really being fooled!

Ye Bo often practices solo with Li Xuanjun, mainly to help the other party refine laning details, but he naturally has some understanding of the top lane.

If he hands over the ward to occupy the first grass at this time, Vayne can go straight back and Q out.

Hide into the second grass!

As a double-marksman matchup, the first grass is not something Vayne, who has no range advantage, can stand firmly in. It is equivalent to the other party only needing to use a very small health cost to trick out his most precious "only ward" in the early stage!

Next, Vayne can continue to use the second grass to pull, and Varus, who has no ward, will have his anti-gank pressure instantly filled, thereby losing the initiative to trade health!

Players who don't play top lane may find it difficult to understand, and may even feel slightly exaggerated.

But in fact, in the top lane, which is the position that best highlights 1v1 laning.

Many times, it is really a small step difference, which contains several layers of game between the two sides!

Ye Bo's handling is to avoid the edge, forcibly eat the health loss of an auto-attack, and then pull down directly, keeping a distance from the grass above.

"Don't fight, oh?" TheShy, who was pulling at the edge of the grass, saw this scene and was obviously slightly surprised.

He noticed the small details—the opponent seemed to be directly "admitting cowardice" and retreating, not hitting him once and eating the consumption for nothing.

But in fact, he held {Hail of Blades} in his hand!

The real purpose of his consumption this time also included wanting to trick out the opponent's Hail of Blades. As long as the opponent's A was shot, he would immediately Q tumble and pull back.

Then Varus's Hail of Blades entered CD, and he could try to step forward to consume with QA at level one.

TheShy also knew very well that Vayne could not grab Varus's level one lane in a normal matchup, and could only rely on this way to forcibly compete!

The importance of level one lane priority in the top lane goes without saying.

But at this time, the opponent did everything flawlessly, and TheShy couldn't compete, so he could only let him push the lane.

Waiting for both sides to reach level three, the minion wave reset.

Vayne had already missed quite a few minion kills to save health.

And the second confrontation officially began.

Both heroes, who were very afraid of ganks, went to their respective river banks to place wards on the surface, and then returned to laning with peace of mind.

At this time, neither side had wards—grabbing the grass became the most crucial point of contention!

The reason is very simple.

Whoever occupies the grass has the initiative to trade health!

Two marksmen shooting at each other, it is impossible for one side to risk being hit for nothing and walk into the dark grass with their feet.

But Ye Bo, who got the lane priority in the first three levels, held a slight health advantage, and the level three Varus's combat power was obviously stronger, successfully grabbing the most valuable "second middle grass."

The second grass is in the middle of the minion wave. As long as Varus occupies this grass, Vayne will face the risk of being consumed for nothing when she comes up to kill minions!

At the same time, the positioning is also quite safe, and there is no need to worry too much about being caught!

Varus can completely use this grass to slowly control the lane and push slowly, gradually expanding the suppression advantage!

However... an accident occurred.

Just when Varus and Vayne were shooting at each other, and both sides pulled into the two grasses to pull off the hatred, waiting for the opportunity and preparing to walk out again.

Under Ye Bo's feet, a yellow search vision suddenly lit up!

Ye Bo felt that something was wrong.

And in the next moment, while shooting a silver crossbow arrow, Vayne had already rolled out of the grass, shooting an E skill 【Condemn】 at an oblique angle, wanting to nail him to the wall!

TheShy's vision had been achieved.

Although Vayne's surprise attack was unannounced, this AQE could actually be reacted to.

It's just that most people wouldn't make any extra operations.

After all, level three Vayne's damage is not enough to kill, this wave is at most hitting some health and getting some laning advantage.

But TheShy wanted this.

Just because Varus's minion wave had been pushed slightly forward in the E skill health trade just now, at this time, once driven back, his status was badly damaged and he had no wards. Vayne could directly counter-occupy the second grass!

Next, Vayne would use the second grass as a base, making Varus unable to even pass.

He was about to be pressed out of the experience zone!

As long as he let his own jungler come to counter-gank, he would definitely be able to wait for a 2v2 opportunity in the top jungle—because if he didn't come, Varus wouldn't be able to hear the experience!
