Chapter 375: Bloody shutout! The authentic

~12 min read 2,209 words

"If you didn't swap lanes, according to what you just said, G2's laning is very painful, isn't that a disadvantage in all three lanes?"

The online broadcast of the LEC region's home team.

A few days ago in the European and American anti-pressure bar, G2 coach Joshrt, who posted that Ye Bo was a "cyborg" and "Briar is a duo stunt entertainment," asked suspiciously.

After all, the outside world couldn't know the game on the field.

And although Josh is now the coach of the Valorant division, he was indeed a G2 person who caused a hot search-level joke on the foreign network before, and it is true that he came to the World Championship to guest star, so no one would say anything.

"Uh, is there a possibility that they don't know how to swap lanes?"

The one connecting with him is Caedrel, nicknamed "Ou Gang"—because his appearance looks like Crystal, and he has the same live broadcast style, and is even more famous for being a former professional player, but with only flower pots on the honor stand behind him.

Ou Gang, as a well-known LPL fan, and Josh's G2 war wolf identity, made the program effect full.

"How is that possible!" Josh said with disdain: "GEN and JDG can research it in one night, do you think our G2 can't research it? I think there might be other tactics!"

"By the way, Caedrel, I must ask you a question before watching this match~"

Because they didn't swap lanes, G2 was naturally at a disadvantage in all three lanes at the start.

The laning phase naturally didn't have much to watch.

Josh took the initiative to tease: "First of all, I definitely support G2, but Caedrel, we all know you are an LPL fan."

"Then the question is, in this key battle where V5 plays our European first seed G2, who do you support?"

Ou Gang didn't panic at all when he heard this, and said with a straight face: "You have to be clear, Josh. First of all, I'm not an LPL fan, I'm just a fan of V5 and WBG."

"Secondly, this question is really fatal. How should I put it? This is like watching your relatives fight with the person you love the most, it's really hard to choose!"

"But you know, the same blood as them flows in my body, and no matter what, I am also the commentary representative of the European region. G2 is connected to my blood, blood is thicker than water! So my support for V5 and Ye will never! Never exceed any European team!"

"Especially since this match is still the proudest child of our region, G2!"

"Oh?"

Josh pointed to the inner collar of the other party's clothes on the screen.

"Then what is the black-collared clothes you are wearing inside? It looks a bit like V5's team uniform to me..."

Ou Gang immediately widened his eyes and retorted: "You are slandering me! Let's watch the match first, it looks like G2 is going to take the initiative!"

He changed the subject at light speed.

And in the live broadcast screen, the Sylas, who started with a double buff and speed 3, was preparing to make a move on the bot lane.

Sylas jungle is known as "can't brush jungle," it is easy to brush until he collapses, and he will inevitably gank early.

V5 naturally also has precautions.

Sylas just walked to the edge of the bot lane river and was directly persuaded to retreat by the positioning, clearly knowing his position.

"There is a ward, just come out and help us push the lane!" Hanssama commanded.

Because he didn't know where Jarvan IV was, if he counter-ganked in the bot lane, it was hard to say whether he could win 3v3. Once Draven changed to a kill, the risk was too high.

And unlike Ou Gang's speculation.

G2 clearly has an understanding of lane swapping.

After they found that their "game" of lane swapping at the start didn't succeed, they knew they had to continue to seek lane swap opportunities, otherwise continuing to lane would only be a chronic death.

"Jarvan IV didn't even come out, he's either counter-ganking my upper half or in the mid-top, you guys be careful!" Jungler Yike issued a reminder to the top-mid.

From the beginning of the lane swap tactic, it has been repeated—the first priority of the lane swap game must be lane priority.

Only those who take the minion wave out first have the qualification to "actively swap lanes."

Just like this wave.

V5 lost the information of the opponent's bot duo, and was forcibly pushed and interfered with. If they still want to continue "catching the matchup," they can only clear the minion wave under the tower and return to the base to "blindly catch."

Due to the time difference of returning to the base, V5 can only simply guess whether the opponent went to the mid lane or the top lane.

"BB, you prepare to TP to the bot, we..."

Hanssama said, suddenly using his brain.

He is nicknamed "Ou Ge" for a reason, one of which is that he is also an AD player who will participate in commanding, and in many cases, the lane transitions are judged by him!

Especially in the lane swap patch, and in the case where his own support Mikyx is not good at commanding.

"I feel that the opponent might also swap lanes to catch us, BB, you act a bit!"

"We two continue to the bot!"

Hanssama's brain storm made a game decision that looked very clever.

Follow the same pattern!

Although their "thousand-layer cake game" at the first level failed, and they didn't know whether it was because the opponent didn't prepare to play lane swap in this game, or they guessed their idea in a creepy way...

But this wave came again.

This wave, there is no reason to guess it again!

The top laner BB also started to cooperate immediately, deliberately sacrificing the minion wave to arch towards his own side, making a move to stockpile minions for the AD and protect his health, ready to TP to the bot lane at any time.

He chose a Yone and was countered by the opponent's Jax, and the laning was simply sitting in a big prison.

He couldn't wait to run away!

Even if he goes to the bot lane to fight two people, it's equally uncomfortable, at least he can take on the role of attracting firepower.

And the duo lane changed their path from the high ground and continued to walk back towards the bot lane, and even after arriving at their own bot first tower, they deliberately waited and didn't go out, wanting to wait for the opponent's bot lane, who came out late, to appear.

But, when Tristana and Syndra were just about to step out of the tower—the opposite bot lane actually walked out with the figures of Draven and Neeko first!

"???"

Hanssama was stunned: "What does it mean... Could it be that they can even guess that we didn't swap!?"

"BB, you didn't reveal the secret, did you."

The top laner BB was very innocent: "No, I missed at least ten minions."

Hanssama was a bit doubtful about life.

Could it be that he was "fighting with air" for two consecutive waves, and the other party actually didn't prepare to play lane swap at all in this game?

But the God's eye view saw it clearly.

Josh covered his forehead with a constipated expression: "This, did they really not realize it at all!?"

Ou Gang pointed to the screen: "No! No! The jungler is about to bump into them, they should be able to realize it!"

Jungler Yike just came out of Jarvan IV's empty bot red zone and was preparing to return to his bot blue zone to eat the remaining two wild monsters.

He didn't expect to bump into a Jarvan IV as soon as he stepped into the entrance bush!

Sylas and Jarvan IV 1v1 might not be completely impossible to fight.

But because it was near the mid lane, the mid laner Viego was already on the way, and Azir was completely powerless.

Sylas would explode if he looked at it for one more second!

No way, Sylas could only use E to bait Jarvan IV's EQ, and then decisively Flash over the wall to escape.

"That's not right, how could Jarvan IV stay in my blue zone for so long..." Yike finally reacted after the fact.

You know.

Sylas went to the bot lane to help push the lane first, and then wandered around in Jarvan IV's red zone.

Jarvan IV was speed 3 in the bot half, and went directly to Sylas's blue zone. He should have finished brushing the remaining Gromp and Wolves in his own jungle long ago.

Unless, he was delayed by something.

"Oh, this is V5's small design!" Ou Gang looked excited and analyzed: "After Jarvan IV entered Sylas's jungle, he didn't rush to brush the jungle, nor did he go to the bot lane to counter-gank, but came to the corner in front of the high ground gate and placed a ward!"

"It is precisely this ward that completely captured the path information of G2's bot lane, allowing the V5 bot lane, which came out late, to change their path temporarily in front of the high ground gate!"

"They calculated everything! Just one ward shattered the intention of G2's bot lane!"

Josh glanced at him sideways: "Which side are you on?"

"I'm just analyzing the situation~"

Ou Gang smiled, and became serious again: "This makes me feel that G2 is very hard to play. Originally, their lineup was very strange, and V5's lineup is unbelievably good!"

"And in the mid lane, this Azir from Caps, I feel that he has no way to deal with Ye's Viego..."

As early as the match against BLG in the Summer Split, Ye Bo used Viego to fight Yagao's Azir.

At that time, Yagao was restricted because of the close-range stealth of Viego's E skill black mist, and the new version of Azir had to focus on W and was difficult to frequently dispatch sand soldiers, and the sand soldiers had no Viego position and were difficult to consume.

Caps in this match clearly didn't overcome this problem either, and encountered the same dilemma as Yagao.

The mid lane was still considered good.

The most miserable one was actually the top lane that failed the lane swap, and the bot lane.

Sylas couldn't go to the top lane to help relieve Yone, and V5 seized this point, directly calling Jarvan IV to prepare to launch a tower dive on the bot lane to help Draven cash out.

But the facts also proved—G2 is definitely not a weak team, and certainly not playing randomly!

They are really prepared!

It could be seen that Neeko just turned into a cannon minion to tank the tower, and Syndra immediately broke the point with a long-range EQ, instantly knocking Neeko back into human form!

Clearly, {Support Syndra} is something G2 has specially researched. Among the few heroes that need to be burned, they specifically chose it because it can counter the Neeko support they need to release.

Speaking of which.

Neeko has actually had quite a bit of weakening in the World Championship, and even the values are so low that she cannot be used as a mid laner.

She is still a must-ban or must-pick, and the {cannon minion tanking tower} mechanism that the designer wants to retain for "face" is clearly the culprit, and the strategic value is too high.

Of course, everyone has long known the way to deal with it.

After all, Neeko's mechanism is {if she receives 'hard control', she will be interrupted from transforming}. Theoretically, choosing a hard support and finding a way to "control" the other party when Neeko is tanking the tower can crack it.

But it's not that simple in actual combat...

—Neeko generally stands at the edge of tanking the tower, similar to Nautilus and Alistar. Common hard supports want to interrupt the other party, they have to almost physically go out of the tower, and the key control given to the support makes it difficult to protect their own pitiful AD.

Not to mention Neeko's teammates will also help block!

But Syndra's EQ combo, not only is the distance outrageously far, and Neeko, this kind of hero without displacement, is also very difficult to dodge!

"Interesting," Beryl looked at this Syndra from the opponent and also turned his small eyes to think about something.

Even if the strength is not as good as their team, clearly there are places worth learning and thinking about.

Even if Syndra has the ability to guard against Neeko, V5 didn't rush to dive the tower in order not to increase trouble by changing kills.

Syndra was a bit arrogant, and even found a few opportunities for jungle defense, grabbing the residual health wild monsters with 【Force of Will】 in front of Jarvan IV, and throwing them directly under the tower to eat them herself! ===== CHAPTER 376 =====
