Chapter 318: Advancing to the Finals! Sand Wall Shockwave! The Smell of Gunpowder!

"Today's winner's bracket showdown is a repeat of our Spring Split finals matchup!"

"And this is also the two teams' fifth encounter this season, though their previous scores..."

Seeing the director display the glaring "10-0" comparison, Guan Zeyuan's expression instantly froze in an unnatural way.

Fortunately, Miller beside him immediately smiled and helped smooth things over: "But actually, this also proves that JDG's performance this year is quite good as well; whether it's the Spring regular season, playoffs, MSI, or Summer regular season, all of these were runner-up finishes!"

"Only in this way could they push V5 to the limit."

Clearly, the two teams could be said to be incredibly "familiar" with each other, knowing one another very well.

After all, they have played each other way too many times!

Of course, just as the casters said, this also indirectly proves that JDG's strength is indeed not bad; otherwise, it wouldn't be easy to push the series to the limit.

"V5 has picked Taliyah, who is relatively weak in lane; will JDG pick an assassin mid?"

"Although it hasn't truly become the mainstream of the meta, several teams' mid laners now like to use assassin heroes, and Knight's assassin mid would definitely..."

"What a pity, Knight still chose Galio in the end to counter, and even snatched up Jarvan IV to build a system!"

The chat was instantly filled with 【Coward!】.

And in the back, Homme, who already looked preoccupied, saw the hero the opponent locked in as a counter-pick, and his expression changed slightly in an instant.

"V5 picked Qiyana again!? Then this Qiyana is very likely Master Ye's mid lane Qiyana again!"

"Taliyah plus Qiyana, it seems that is still a very popular mid-jungle combo in ranked!"

The Qiyana + Taliyah mid-jungle combo is at least not particularly rare in public matches.

Besides both heroes having extremely high burst, Qiyana's stable water-element initiation makes it easy for the two to unleash their full damage together, and Taliyah can also erect a wall in open terrain at any time to cooperate with Qiyana; they have the ability to coordinate in all dimensions.

"Knight, you must play aggressively in the mid lane this game and try to suppress him!" Homme, having snapped to his senses, had the translator quickly pass on his words: "We cannot let Kanavi have a hard time playing in the jungle!"

"￥%@#%"

The translator looked bewildered, but fortunately, Homme judged from the other's nodding body language that he had understood his words.

In his mind, although Galio against Qiyana is certainly not a counter, it should still have the power to put up a fight.

It's just that the match footage was still different from what he had imagined.

Ever since Galio failed to gain an advantage in the early trades, the mid lane camera somehow stopped appearing on the stream.

One could only vaguely know the situation in the mid lane through the slightly slow widening gap in CS!

"Galio isn't contesting the minion wave, so it's hard for him to move, whereas Xun has been using the mid lane's wave advantage to invade Jarvan IV's jungle!"

"There haven't been many results for either side in the early game, but Jarvan IV's jungle has already been compressed quite a bit!"

"However, Kanavi doesn't seem willing to suffer a loss this time; he pretends to leave, but is actually lurking in the back, looking like he wants to fight!"

"Galio has already retreated to a safe position!"

The moment Xun saw Jarvan IV show himself, he used Smite to finish the jungle monster and immediately set up 【Unraveled Earth】 behind him, then used his ultimate 【Weaver's Wall】 to prepare for escape.

In the narrow terrain of the jungle, Unraveled Earth almost blocked the entire path in front of him.

This made it hard for Jarvan IV to find an angle to use his EQ combo, and naturally, it was difficult to interrupt Taliyah's ultimate!

But then, Kanavi's Jarvan IV suddenly threw his flag "into the wall," then flew out with EQ as if to thrust into the wall... just after flying halfway, he suddenly made a triangular turn and flashed out, using the "Triangular EQ-Flash" to forcibly pass through the Unraveled Earth!

Taliyah, who had just boarded the stone wall, was knocked up by the EQ and then covered by 【Cataclysm】.

And immediately, 【Hero's Entrance】 landed!

"Both bot lanes are on their way to support, but Taliyah is deep in the opponent's jungle this time and might not be able to wait for her teammates' support!"

"JDG has finally found a mid-jungle coordination!!"

"Xun lands and flashes away to dodge Galio's ultimate, but Knight has already flashed to pursue!"

"Uh, what is that!?"

Although Taliyah's ultimate was interrupted and she didn't get to ride the stone wall skateboard.

But, the generation of the wall was not interrupted.

Qiyana, having predicted it half a second early, pushed the 【Supreme Display of Talent】 shockwave in the mid lane toward that sand wall that had pierced through the jungle—suddenly, the entire jungle was surrounded by a circle of "warning edges"!

Normally, there are gaps between the walls in the jungle, and Qiyana can usually only push into one independent wall.

But Taliyah's ultimate sand wall was like a connecting object inserted into the entire jungle.

It even sent a "fuse" from thousands of miles away into the hands of the mid laner!

The shockwave of Supreme Display of Talent had already combined with the sand wall to form a "Sand Wall Shockwave," simultaneously spreading and exploding from thousands of miles away!

The pursuing Galio and Jarvan IV had nowhere to dodge in the narrow jungle and were pulled back by Taliyah's W.

Furthermore, Qiyana's ultimate has an unknown "visual mechanism": {If it travels too far a distance, it will cause the wall at the end not to display the shockwave's "warning edge"}

This led to the fact that the long wall by the Krugs below was also propagated and spread by the shockwave, but because the distance was exceeded, the supporting bot lane duo didn't notice it at all!

Ruler and Missing had just walked near the tri-bush when they were inexplicably stunned by the Sand Wall Shockwave, and the V5 bot lane duo jumped out from behind the wall.

Blossoming at two points simultaneously!

Afterward, V5's Ye Bo also showed more combo effects of this move.

For example, Taliyah can take off to support, while Qiyana cannot... but she can use the ultimate's flight path to achieve the effect of an "Intercontinental Cruise Missile"!

【Damn, this move is actually kind of cool】

【Red lotus by the mountain, flames swallow a hundred thousand men in Hanzhong! Fireworks bloom, burning eight hundred miles of Yiling!】

【Next, you will see the most suspense-free three-to-zero of this century】

【When Knight meets Master Ye, he wishes he could wear three layers of diapers to prevent leakage; he's practically more filial than the Saint of Thieves!】

【Following "White-Nong Horse" and "White Boiled Water," now there's "White-Hitting-Gun"; is this constant desire to gank top useful? Who the hell said my Saint Gun Brother is useless!】

【Roar roar, if JDG wins the loser's bracket and kills their way back, do we really hope to be captured seven times this year?】

Actually, Homme had specifically formulated a tactic for today's match.

And he had already used it on WBG yesterday.

Homme believed the secret to defeating V5 was to occupy the top lane, so he wanted to return to last year's "Top-Jungle Siamese" twin system, which the team was most proficient at.

But obviously—as can be seen from the result that JDG only "narrowly won" against WBG yesterday, this tactic cannot be said to be completely useless, only that the effect was very average.

It's not that JDG has become weaker.

369's strength is not weak, but the {offensive attribute} in his stats is too weak.

Even if the top-jungle Siamese connection succeeds in gaining an advantage, it is very difficult for 369 to produce any particularly significant laning suppression effect, which causes the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of ganks to appear extremely low!
