Chapter 56: Strangers! Are you Top Esports?
Enter the game.
Cheers and shouts from both teams could be heard from the scene.
It's clear that T1 has more supporters, and its fans are more enthusiastic.
Of course, there are many supporters of Top Esports, and they are also shouting loudly.
In Top Esports' voice chat, Gao Tianliang said, "Xiao Huo, you should be fine in lane, right? Play it safe against Renekton."
Lin Jin smiled and said, "Don't worry, my big tree can restrain crocodiles."
Everyone almost burst out laughing; they even said that a tree can restrain a crocodile.
However, this was only said by Lin Jin; if others said it, they would be criticized.
The camera focused on the mid lane from the very beginning of the game, watching how Faker's Azir would play.
The player on the left was playing Galio, and he wasn't too afraid of Azir, because Azir is indeed very weak in the early game and has very low damage.
Faker's performance was excellent. He leveled up to level three while taking damage from the Sand Soldiers with his left hand, and then aggressively used his E to close the distance, intending to lock them down and unleash a combo.
However, Tsar also left WE in an instant, and ZuoShou took the opportunity to clear the minion wave first, clearing the minion wave before Tsar, so he could roam faster.
So they helped Gao Tianliang control the first wave of river crabs and also entered the jungle to put pressure on T1's jungler, Oner.
Everyone noticed that ZuoShou was playing exceptionally well in lane, even putting pressure on Faker.
Miller said, "Left Hand is very passionate. He played well in this wave of attrition. Oh, he's going forward again, but be careful, Oner is coming back."
"Huh? Oner's Blade of the Ruined King might use W-Flash, Galio doesn't have E."
Fortunately, Oner played it safe, only charging up his W skill, which was then dodged by Zuo Shou's movement, creating a perfect opening.
The mid laner is still ahead in last hits.
The commentators were all praising him, saying that Zuo Shou played very well, very good.
The bot lane is also very exciting.
After Jack Spicy Dance picked Lucian, he wanted to gain an advantage in the laning phase, and since he was playing against Aphelios, there was not much pressure in the early game.
So they started spamming faces like crazy, using Nami's E skill to attack the opponent's face.
Aphelios was driven back several times, and just as the audience was cheering for Jack the Ripper, Keria's Lena suddenly used a sneaky Q that hooked Jack the Ripper through a creep.
Guan Zeyuan's voice suddenly rose several decibels:
"Huh? Jack's hot dance position is hooked! He caught the Q!"
"Oh, thank goodness, thank goodness, the purification has taken effect, it's over."
"Hmm, it still feels a bit unstable. Don't worry, don't worry."
This charge forward cost him his Purify ability, and Jack and Lazy Dance stabilized their situation slightly, waiting for the jungler to arrive or for a resource team fight.
Gao Tianliang's prince secured the dragon first and then attacked it from the bottom lane. T1's jungler Oner went to the top lane to try and gank Lin Jin.
They had been planning for several days, all targeting Top Esports' top laner, Fire.
If we can break down Fire, Top Esports will be much easier to beat.
I never expected that Fire would actually play a big trick on a tree.
There's no other way; we have to keep trying to catch the big tree!
Zeus's crocodile didn't make any mistakes, his early laning phase was very stable, and he harassed well, reducing Maokai's health to one-third.
Just then, Oner arrived and signaled, "It feels like we can go in now."
"Try to seduce her."
Zeus nodded, swayed the crocodile forward, and used his red-rage Q skill right in front of him.
Sure enough, the big tree was coming up to last-hit the minions, so he had to move forward. At this moment, Oner's Blade of the Ruined King was charging up his W skill in the bush.
Then, anticipating the movement, it was released towards the tree!
It looked like it was about to hit.
Suddenly, the tree realized what was happening and used its W skill on the Ruined King.
Use my W to avoid your W!
The large tree that could not be selected was not controlled.
Guan Zeyuan exclaimed, "Wow, Brother Huo reacted quickly! He dodged it with a W!"
"The Ruined King was dumbfounded. How was he supposed to fight now?"
"Is the damage enough? It's not enough to kill him."
"But we still have to try. The crocodile comes and bites, but it's not the Red Fury W skill, so the control time isn't long."
"Okay, then you can go now, don't worry about it."
"Hey? I'll throw another tree at you later, just to disgust you."
Lin Jin left unharmed, though his health dropped to half, which was not a serious matter.
Then Top Esports started to gain momentum in the bottom half of the map. Gao Tianliang saw the jungler in the top lane and went directly to the bottom lane to gank.
They didn't manage to get First Blood, but they forced gumayusi to use Flash, which was a good result.
Aphelios didn't have Flash, so he was very careful in the laning phase, and coupled with gumayusi's personality, he played even more cautiously.
Mark was also given a little break, and followed Xiaotian to the mid lane to wander around before going to fight the vanguard.
Miller said, "Top Esports is really aggressive. They're attacking the vanguard right now, and their support has already arrived."
"Neither of our bot laners or supports have a chance to reach level six, while our Jarvan IV and Galio are both level six. They're incredibly strong."
"What do you mean? Are we going to fight?"
"T1 is really going to take over? That would be great for us."
T1 was at a disadvantage in the early stages and seemed very anxious.
This was clearly a stronger push from Top Esports' top, mid, and jungle players, who insisted on engaging in a team fight.
As a result, Gao Tianliang decisively initiated the team fight, and Lin Jin's Maokai immediately used Flash and W to stun the Ruined King.
Go first!
Galio used his ultimate to enter the fray, and Blade of the Ruined King was controlled and tortured until he died.
Although the prince had a lot of health, he ultimately died using EQ.
The crocodile and the Tsar couldn't catch up at all.
Moreover, Mark came to support first, and Top Esports capitalized on their numerical advantage, quickly securing the Herald.
"Nice!"
Guan Zeyuan said, "We got the first blood and also secured the Herald. We also took the Dragon earlier."
"Wow, this is definitely a pleasant surprise."
"Yes, Top Esports played too well in the early game, they were too stable."
"Don't rush, take it one step at a time, just keep playing like this."
The screen was also flooded with comments:
"Huh? Really? Top Esports has the advantage?"
"Stranger! Stranger! Stranger!"
"Haha, that's incredibly steady, everyone played really well."
"Brother Huozi has such good control over this tree, it's incredibly oppressive."
"Does this mean top lane tanks are the answer to this patch?"
"Gao Tianliang's prince is so handsome, he's just so dashing!"
"Come on, come on, be careful when playing against T1, no matter how big your lead is."
The Korean commentators also felt that Top Esports played well in the early game and hoped that T1 would not let their guard down.
"But that's T1, the team with Faker, so there's no need to rush. This is only the beginning of the first game, and we're not at a disadvantage yet. We'll come back later."
Eleven minutes into the game, T1 was still worried about the top lane, so Oner went to the top lane again to dive the tower.
Zeus was in excellent condition. After pushing the minion wave forward, he immediately used his ultimate ability to charge into the tower.
Lin Jin saw this and also unleashed his ultimate move, first binding the crocodile, and sure enough, the Ruined King was back.
Lin Jin initiated the attack, using his Q ability to push the crocodile into the tower, causing the tower to aggro the crocodile.
After Zeus uses his W to bite down in a state of red rage, he unleashes a combo and then immediately uses his E to escape.
However, the Ruined King entered the fray too late and didn't deal enough damage, so he quickly used his ultimate to retreat.
Awkward, I didn't kill him...
