Chapter 364

"Malzahar's ultimate was interrupted! Yone lands and follows up with an R, a double slash, and then sheathes his blade and exits the turret!"

"Brother! Xu! Was! Solo! Killed!"

Guan Zeyuan shouted inexplicably excitedly on the commentary desk.

"What happened in the mid lane!"

After a solo kill appeared in the mid lane, the junglers of both sides did not appear, and their positions were naturally mutually exposed.

The bot lane of both sides, which was originally going to start a war, was directly persuaded to stop from afar. There was no reason to fight hard knowing there were people behind, which disguisedly prevented a battle.

Everyone's perspective was given to the mid lane.

ShowMaker was sticking his neck forward with a shocked face, and there was great confusion in his bewildered little eyes, as if even he didn't understand what had happened.

The director quickly cut to the replay.

One could see Malzahar, who was in poor condition, under the turret, holding on until his passive shield refreshed before daring to walk out from behind the turret to try to farm the turret minions.

Just from this action, one could see that ShowMaker was definitely extremely steady, and first of all, it was definitely not a "brain-fart" death.

Malzahar has both a passive and an ultimate; no matter who looks at this wave, there is no reason not to eat a large wave of minions.

After all, as long as Yone dared to enter the defensive turret range to break the shield, Malzahar would instantly suck him under the turret—Yone was also in poor condition, and the 2.5-second suppression effect would at least take 2-3 defensive turret attacks, which could be said to be certain death!

But in the death replay, one could clearly see Yone actually starting his EQ into the turret without any cover!

In ShowMaker's view at the time, this was simply no different from sending himself to death!

Even if Yone used Q-Flash to get close, his own {Void Magic Immunity Shield} could directly block the skill, and at the same time, the opponent would still attract the defensive turret's aggro, and he would still be able to steadily hold the opponent.

As a result, he didn't expect that after a burst of sword light and shadows... his own ultimate was inexplicably interrupted!

【What happened??】

【Dual-blade style, kid!】

【As soon as I switched screens, I saw Chang Wei beating Lai Fu】

【Brother Xu, just give Ye some face! Don't use your head to top his feet anymore!】

【()()()()!】

【Xu Chu is truly a good friend of LPL, always able to stand out at critical moments, worthy of him!】

"This is... using Flash to interrupt his own Q, and then W in place?" BDS top laner Adam scratched his head: "The combo should be, Q-Flash-W?"

Playing Demacia and the Grand General of Noxus, he didn't know this kind of fancy hero at all, and just guessed roughly.

G2 top laner BB, sitting next to him, nodded: "Should be, the visual effect looks so cool, but the operation isn't particularly difficult."

"The more important thing is that if Yone wants to achieve 'Human-Wind Separation' with Q-Flash, he must wait until the wind is completely released before flashing. This tests the timing more."

"Actually, many of Ye's operations aren't difficult. Anyone of us could replicate them. It's mainly the operational thinking; being able to think of operating like this on the spot is indeed amazing."

As the number one seed of LEC, he set up the momentum of a number one seed big brother toward his own number four seed, and even taught him along the way.

The backstage was noisy, and players from various countries didn't speak the same language after all. Even if they wanted to have some social interaction, they were limited by language, so they were all gathered by region.

But on the other side.

Zeus, in the LCK seat, frowned.

He patted Oner on the shoulder, signaling the other party to go together, and walked to the backstage computer next to them used by players for peripheral debugging and warm-ups.

"What are those two from T1 doing, not watching?"

"Let's go take a look."

Several players from various regions who had been paying attention here curiously followed.

And seeing the heroes the two chose, they were actually wanting to replicate that operation, they were all a bit confused for a moment.

After all, in everyone's view, that operation didn't seem very difficult.

But, soon.

They all widened their eyes one after another.

Just because Zeus in front of the screen—seemed unable to "replicate" that operation!

More accurately, Zeus did replicate Yone's operation, and the positioning looked exactly the same as the scene that had just taken place on the field.

The difference was that Oner, who was operating Malzahar on the opposite side, was not shield-broken, nor was he knocked up by the whirlwind, thus interrupting the ultimate!

According to Zeus's operation, Yone was just like the scene ShowMaker had in his mind earlier, directly sucked under the turret, unable to move, and shot to death by the defensive turret!

"What the hell?" Oner, who was confused, couldn't understand it either.

And the reason was soon revealed in Malzahar's passive text.

{The shield of 【Void Shift】 does not disappear immediately after receiving a hero attack, but will remain for 0.25 seconds. }

It was that 0.25-second delayed Void Shield that swallowed the whirlwind that arrived immediately after, along with the W that broke the shield!

Zeus actually didn't know this small detail of Malzahar's passive; he just vaguely felt that Yone's movements were strange, and he had never thought of operating like that himself, so he wanted to try it.

Didn't expect this try.

Only then did he realize that this seemingly simple operation would be so difficult!

Yone's Q3 extreme flight distance is about 0.5 seconds—it seems there is still a 0.25-second gap?

But to achieve "Human-Wind Separation" instead of "Human-Wind Together" Q-Flash, and to use Human-Wind Separation to make Yone "break away from the Q state" in advance to be able to use W, one must press Flash only after the wind has completely left the hand.

At the same time, W also has a casting front-swing.

Wanting to seize that critical 0.25-second gap here means that the Q3 release point, as well as the speed of connecting W after Flash, must be perfect without the slightest error!

Even a little bit off won't work!

The more players understand Yone, the more they can feel the difficulty.

What it requires is not simple hand speed, but synergy as precise as a scalpel. Even Zeus had to repeat it many times before successfully replicating it!

And the several top-16 top laners standing behind the chairs watched it several times before finally realizing.

"What the f***?"

"Crazy... even Zeus finds it so hard to replicate?"

"So that means, Ye's Yone actually caught up with his own wind?!"

"I'm also starting to believe that post on Twitter—BB, your coach is right!"

G2 top laner BB, who had just been spouting nonsense, heard the ridicule from the North American top laner next to him, and his face turned a bit red.

Even Zeus, a Yone specialist, had to repeat and test it countless times in the training camp without cooldown to barely replicate it.

And he actually said "the operation is simple"!?

The other players who didn't come over didn't understand what was noisy in the back, turned their heads in confusion, and continued to look at the situation that was about to mutate.

2 and a half minutes is very short in the real world, but it seems so long in Summoner's Rift.

The cooldown of Malzahar's ultimate is exactly 2 and a half minutes.

Originally, after reaching level six at 5 and a half minutes, both Malzahar and Viego could constantly deter the mid lane before the Rift Herald fight, and they would definitely be able to suppress the opposing mid lane from daring to act rashly.

As a result, I didn't expect Malzahar's first ultimate to be gone just like that!

By the time Malzahar's ultimate was ready, the Rift Herald fight was also about to arrive, and they also didn't dare to launch an attack, which was equivalent to missing a key window period.

Approaching 8 minutes.

Keria looked at the mini-map: "The supports of both sides are indeed heading toward the Herald..."

"Is V5 going to take the Herald? It feels a bit risky."

Gumayusi clearly said with a bit of "watching the show" attitude: "The Renekton point is too strong in combat power. Yone's R on five people is useless! These two DK locks can instantly kill one!"

On the surface, V5's mid-jungle early-game advantage has already led by 1k gold.

But at this time, Yone, who had just bought {Berserker's Greaves} + {Noonquiver}, even if his equipment was already considered good, wouldn't be much stronger than the Emperor with the same economic development when fighting—this is determined by the hero's attributes.
