Chapter 51: with translation of chapter title

Kills: 0/1

Turrets: 2/2

Gold: 10.5K/11.6K

At 6:30, here's the comparison of both sides' stats.

QG is leading by 1000!

Besides the first blood gold, the lead comes from last hits and jungle farming.

They swapped lanes at the start to keep development even.

G2 can't accept this start.

Frustrated, they decided to launch a strong assault on the top lane!

With the four side outer towers down, they grouped four players to push the second tower.

"Bopo, watch out!"

"It's over..."

V didn't expect so many people, got hit by Bull Head's Q flash strike, savage charge knocked back, then got a Poppy wall bang.

At this time, Ekko was only level 4, had hardly any equipment, and couldn't withstand this siege.

Even if the apocalyptic doom Brutus was right behind, he couldn't be saved.

Kill score was tied 1:1.

Nothing, if the tower's gone it's gone, I'll go bottom lane to help Dog Grandpa push.

Xu Dongmen commanded: 'Ying Bi Ge, go top lane a bit to guard, just soak experience, don't hard defend.'

After saying that, he dove into the jungle, heading bottom lane to find UZI.

At this moment, Wheel Mom was about to bring the minion wave to the second tower.

Pollution alone definitely couldn't push down this second tower, but with Xu Dongmen joining it's different.

On the battlefield, when the male gunner turned from the jungle into the bottom lane, the red side's minions seemed to have taken Viagra, their size instantly increased, gaining strength.

This is the buff effect of the Canyon Vanguard's 【On the Eve of Doom】.

In the current version, after killing the Vanguard and picking up the eye, the picker cannot summon the Canyon Vanguard, but instead gains a buff.

Similar to the Baron buff, it allows quick recall and can to some extent strengthen minions, of course the strengthening effect is not as strong as Elder Dragon.

Only damage, no damage reduction!

As for the spring season database, this buff's utilization rate is low, long regarded by pro teams as useless.

In the early laning phase, it's hard to obtain; even if obtained, it's hard to push towers, not worth spending great effort to get this thing.

In the early lane-swap phase, it can be obtained, but in lane-swap the outer towers on the sides fall early, leaving little room to maneuver.

Xu Dongmen has played so many matches, yet this is the first time he's found a place to use it.

Don't say, the push is actually quite fast.

Haha, these melee minions are like they've had a fit, absurd!

Along with QG's side minions unleashing full firepower, the scene erupted with incredulous exclamations.

The Elder Dragon buff only gives attack speed to ranged minions, whereas the Vanguard buff treats melee and ranged equally, even siege vehicles get a share.

Ranged minions' initial attack speed is 0.67, after the buff still under 1.

Melee minions' initial attack speed is 1.25, after consuming the Vanguard buff it jumps straight to 1.75!

Not to mention melee minions, even melee heroes are hard to see with such high attack speed in matches.

Vision secured, it belongs to us!

The small shield swung, each one like a disguise after an attack-speed build Nidalee transformation.

— Blue side's defense tower destroyed.

Under the Vanguard buff, Xu Dongmen and UZI two people outperformed G2's four, winning the tower-destroy race, taking down the second tower first.

+275, +275

Gold text appeared above the male gunner and Wheel Mom's heads, they split the tower bounty evenly.

In contrast, the four of G2 destroying towers top lane each got only over 100 bounty.

Meanwhile, bottom lane also wasted a big wave of minions for nothing.

Meanwhile, the top lane minion wave at least got experience from Da B and the apocalyptic doom!

Taking an extra kill, the gold difference shrank to under a thousand, but this wave G2 gained nothing.

In terms of resource allocation reasonableness, the gap is obvious!

I'll push another wave, going back I'll have a big treasure sword. Pollution very happy.

The mining dagger on him is already half-dug, now he can immediately craft a greatsword of the gale; this start is not too comfortable for an ADC.

OK, I'll go take red.

Xu Dongmen dove straight into the jungle; his own red was eaten by the cat girl, the enemy's red naturally couldn't be let go.

After taking the red, he didn't return to base right away, but instead E'd over the wall and countered a wave of stone men.

Wait, it seems there's an opportunity.

Xu Dongmen recalled in the bush, vision saw Bull Head walk past the red buff bush on the other side of the wall.

G2's support was looking for someone in the jungle, or rather placing defensive vision for the bottom half.

Due to frequent early tower swaps, both sides' supports had already placed their vision stones early.

Old Bull didn't flash, Lucian used up his heal when tower-diving the previous wave.

Xu Dongmen's brain raced.

Through Bull Head's movement trajectory, one could tell this guy's next step is to go to the tri-bush to place vision and check.

At this moment, Lu Xian'an has finished eating the minions in front of the high ground tower, and is now coming out with the minion wave.

This wave, there's an opportunity.

Xu Dongmen canceled the recall at the last second of casting, then began to wait for the enemy.

G2ad wasn't stupid either; he stopped moving forward upon reaching the Stone Giant's position.

Only a row of blue minions passed in front of the male gunner.

It's Han Yuan, discipline aside—even with the support nearby, he doesn't easily face-check the brush!

G2's bottom lane Emperor is highly alert.

More tense than him are the tens of thousands of LPL spectators in the audience.

By now, Uzi had already returned to base, and the rest of QG were far away.

From the god's-eye view, Xu Dongmen was alone in G2's territory, with the bull head only a wall away, and the leopard woman fighting the F4 buff not far off.

At the slightest sign of movement, the male gunner would immediately be surrounded!

biu~

When Lu Xian'an raised his right-hand holy spear and used W to cast Fervent Blazing Shot into the brush, many people nervously covered their mouths.

Under everyone's gaze, Xu Dongmen twisted his waist slightly, dodging the star-shaped missile that exploded in the brush by a hair's breadth.

Missed!

Seeing that the missile didn't hit anyone, Emperor continued forward to farm the lane.

In the time he lingered, the bottom lane minion waves from both sides had already collided at the first tower's ruins.

Feeling lucky?

Clad in black, Xu Dongmen charged out of the brush wielding a Chicago Typewriter, firing a shot that triggered the red buff's slow.

Emperor was shocked; his first reaction was to coldly flee and pull back, not knowing how many people were in the brush.

Xu Dongmen quickly drew his gun and fired the second shot.

Just him? What gives a single person the right to be so arrogant?

When Emperor saw that the male gunner had no one behind him, he immediately gathered courage and fired a holy light pierce, clashing with the male gunner.

Like Trick, he also came from CJ, having once been teammates with Master An and Madlife.

Although he comes from a prestigious family, he's not easily frightened.

Don't say that; in terms of gear, he's truly not inferior to Xu Dongmen.

Lu Xian'an had just left home, equipped with Doran's Blade, a warhammer, a pickaxe, and other attack damage items.

Xu Dongmen had a thousand dollars in savings he hadn't spent yet, and his only attack damage item was a warhammer.

Emperor thought he could withstand it!

But that thought lasted only three seconds before Xu Dongmen shoved the gun barrel into his mouth with a bang.

What the heck? Why is the damage so high?!

Emperor's health plummeted, dropping to just one third after a single exchange.

Xu Dongmen didn't have much attack damage gear, but he was higher level than Lu Xian'an, had the red buff, and the Doom's Eve buff still had a little time left.

The biggest highlight of this patch's vanguard is that, besides strengthening minions, it also grants a certain bonus to the scavenger himself.

+40 movement speed, +10% damage

A 10% damage increase is equivalent to two extra longswords for the current male gunner.

Brother, save me!

Unable to withstand it, Emperor used Flash, heading toward the minions' position.

The two's fight had already alerted G2 support Hybrid, and the bull-headed person was rushing over at full speed.

It must be said that Emperor is smart; running toward high ground at this point is a dead end, while flashing down into the minion wave to wait for rescue is the only way to survive.

Keep your head down!

Xu Dongmen threw out a black smoke screen, holding back his abilities, just waiting for the enemy to flash.

Not only does he have W, he also has Q.

The male gunner's basic attack would be blocked by minions, but his Q ability would not.

The gunpowder roll was released in the minion wave; Lu Xian'an, unable to position properly due to heavy minion collision, was hit by the exploding fire snake.

Self-cocooning!

The minion pile wasn't his safe haven—it would become his burial ground.

Every minion was blocking his movement!

Even if he had a few hundred health left after taking that Q, the bull head coming to rescue was already in sight—but with the ultimate blast firing, everything became meaningless.

Boom~

Emperor's screen lost its color.

In the gray-white screen, his support tried to hold the male gunner, but ended up getting beaten up with a swollen head.

As the male gunner landed a Q-R combo to take Lu Xian'an's head, he also nearly cleared the minion wave.

The bull-headed person forced a collision, not only to be beaten by the shotgun but also to endure the minions' wrath.

If it weren't for Trick also rushing down the lane after hearing the news, G2's bottom lane would likely be wiped out this wave.

What a fierce male gunner!

Killing one and crippling another are just toys!

Going back to grab a jungle knife and serrated dagger—this development!

If this wave had a jungle knife to clean sweep, XDM, it'd be incredibly strong!

What's the most outrageous thing you know? This guy dares to play like that without flash—totally crazy!

Honestly, the male gunner hero also ought to be nerfed; its high damage is baffling.

Hasn't it already been nerfed several times? If we just redo that version, we wouldn't even need to hand over the big thing to kill it.

Still pretty exaggerated, a total stat monster!

………

In the eyes of a thousand people, there are a thousand Hamlets.

Among a thousand esports viewers, there will always be one or two lemon people.

They know how to ruin the atmosphere!

They can't stir up any waves, but hearing them always leaves one feeling like a bone stuck in the throat—gotta speak out to feel relieved.

If nothing unexpected, Xu Dongmen will get MVP again this round.

Has anyone noticed? Trick's water cup seems empty again; he just took a sip of air.

To be fair, he's improved compared to last time; at least this round, the ones who died were his teammates, and he can still clear the jungle properly.

Playing a female leopard jungler without the male gunner is fine, but you can't even control a dragon!

The male gunner succeeded again in his sortie; we can prematurely congratulate Xu Dongmen on securing his fourth MVP, a 4/6 acquisition rate.

If you don't know, just ask: in this MSI, who has more than Xu Dongmei?

Besides QG, other teams at most have 4 wins; what do they have to surpass him?

Friendly reminder: Faker has so far only gotten one MVP.

This fairy's only wish right now is that Dongmen be the one interviewed after the match; I love watching his interviews, his speech is cool and elegant, and he's so handsome—every time I see him, my eyes are full of little hearts, ahhh, I love the gust.

Elegant and easygoing, right? Storm Media, right?

Better yet, QuickPlay~

…………

The match hasn't ended yet.

Although G2 is basically done after ten minutes this round, it still takes some time to bury the European little lamb in the ground.

20 minutes, an 8,000 gold difference!

With absolute advantage, the Baron troops were taken down without bloodshed.

After returning home to regroup, QG's members sounded the horn for attacking the high ground.

G2 kept retreating, completely outmatched.

"The next wave should end soon; I'm going to the toilet, then wait for them to come down and go back to the hotel together."

Lin Ke stretched lazily and rose from his seat.

Xu Dongmen and the others' sweeping autumn wind style of play let this manager take it easy on his bladder.

"Isn't that the someone from SKT? Their match ended an hour ago; why is he still here?"

After finishing and coming out, Lin Ke ran into an acquaintance at the toilet doorway.

Benji!

Lin Ke's eyes lit up; he rushed over to greet without even washing his hands, shouting, "Hello, thank you!"

Paenieyo, a Korean abbreviated phrase, meaning 'I am your fan.'

Having lived together with Doinb, Swift, and others for a long time, Lin Ke's Korean is somewhat decent.

"Who are you? (Who are you?)"

Bengi doesn't know Lin Ke, but he still politely used honorifics because Lin Ke is clearly older than him.

"I'm your fan, the die-hard kind—I've been shipping you and Faker's duo since S3!"

Lin Ke's tone was excited and fired up: "Bengi player, do you have WeChat? No worries if not—I have Kakao, this is my ID!"

Kakao is not only a jungler player, but also Korea's largest social chat app, similar to domestic QQ.

However, after he showed his ID, the other party had no intention of adding him.

One sentence blocked the sending of 'thank you', directly sorry.

That makes sense—people don't know you, so why would they add you as a friend?

If it weren't for the backstage restroom that ordinary people can't enter, and Lin Ke wearing a staff badge on his neck, Bengi would have already ignored him.

Seeing that bluffing wouldn't work, Lin Ke could only reveal his identity: "I'm the owner and CEO of the QG team; I want to add a contact method, okay?"

To express himself clearly, Lin Ke even used the translation software on his phone.

"QG?"

Upon hearing that name, Bengi was surprised, then quickly recalled having seen this person before.

Under Lin Ke's soft and hard persuasion, Benji finally couldn't hold out, and the two added each other as friends.

"Little Pei, welcome again to China—you'll always be my Thejungle!"

Before parting, Lin Ke tightly gripped Benji's hand, spewing crazy rainbow farts.

Bengi, flattered and startled, waved goodbye.

"Stop it, Thejungle!"

Lin Ke turned into a frenzied fan, wildly giving Benji a shout‑out.

Only after seeing the person off, when he went to the mirror to wash his hands, did the LPL hype‑king reveal a devilish smile.

Gotcha now, you little ape‑kid!
