West Wind couldn't help but praise the first kill so quickly on the top lane of Summoner's Canyon. At the same time, the audience below the stage burst into enthusiastic cheers and applause.
That wave …
Well played!
To be fair, the three players from both blue and purple teams were quite outstanding. Hanson received the signal from his jungler and immediately blinked away to stun Big Tree. He then used Ignite and followed up with a basic attack followed by a Q combo to deal the first wave of damage.
Big Tree's response was actually quite perfect.
He turned around and used his W skill to widen the distance between him and Hanson. At the same time, he used his Q skill to repel the Nightmare before blinking away.
Originally.
If there were no surprises, Big Tree would be able to defeat his opponent.
As long as he used his Q skill to control the Shapeshifter for a moment, he could then use his Blink to escape from the fear of the Shapeshifter's E skill. Then, Big Tree would be able to escape unscathed. The applause from the audience should have been for Big Tree.
But …
Although Big Tree was very good, the old jungler of the purple team, Nightmare, was even better.
The King of Nightmares had completely predicted Dan Dashu's escape maneuver. He reacted extremely quickly and flashed forward the moment Dashu's Q skill was activated.
It was a predictable flash.
Even after the tree had teleported away, he still maintained the distance between him and the Twisted Dryad. He perfectly controlled the target with his E Skill, Fear, and finally relied on the Red Buff to slow down and stick to the tree, helping his teammate, Hanson, to take down a kill
"F * ck —"
On the Shang Cai team's side, Lu Ze's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"What the f * ck … is Nightmare insane?"
"His hand speed is so fast!?"
Just a moment ago, he was about to applaud Big Tree's performance, but in the next second, Big Tree was killed by the King of Nightmares' incredible reflexes and hand speed. That level of gank … If he was in Big Tree's position, he would have died as well.
Deng Zhe couldn't help but sigh.
"That's why Tongji being able to sit second only to Fudan in the esports circle in Shanghai definitely has to do with the contributions of their old jungler."
Just like Qiu Yijie in Fudan University.
The old jungler of Tongji was like a stabilizing force to Tongji's team.
A Tongji team with and without him would definitely be a team whose strength was on a completely different level.
Even Lin Feng, who had temporarily let go of his worries and was able to focus more on the match, couldn't help but nod and give his evaluation.
"Except for Old Qiu —"
"Captain Tongji is definitely qualified to play professionally."
Perhaps the LPL was a little exaggerated, but if it was in the professional arena at the LSPL level … With the strength of the old captain of Tongji's jungler, he would definitely be able to firmly occupy a place.
It was a pity that he was a little too old.
But …
In this new generation, it didn't seem like there were only young pro players emerging. Almost half of the strong players at the top of the pyramid weren't young anymore.
Many a time, the experience gained through countless battles was more important than the hot-bloodedness and fighting spirit of the young rookies.
"On the road, the situation has opened up."
In the commentator's seat, Mo Sheng's gaze fell on the spectator's screen.
"However, this pressure isn't enough."
"Tongji still needs to continue to work harder —"
…
In fact, the overall tone of this game was similar to the previous game.
Tongji's side was strong in the early game and needed to constantly put pressure on the opponent to further snowball their advantage. As the weak side in the early game, Fudan University was in a relatively passive defensive position and needed to constantly resist the pressure to develop and drag the game stage to the middle and late stages.
Now that Tongji's Hansen had gotten a kill on the top lane, there was no doubt that they had established an advantage. But after all, the opponent was a big tree. If they really dragged it out slowly, it would still be difficult for Hansen to do anything to the tree.
However, the good thing was that the situation in this game's middle and bottom lane was better than in the previous game.
On the middle lane, Murloc faced Victor. Although it was difficult for Tongji's mid lane player to find an opportunity against Fudan's captain Qiu Yijie's Mechanical Pioneer, at least they had the relative right to push the lane. At the same time, they didn't have to worry about being solo killed by the opponent like the last game, Bomberman.
As for the bottom lane —
It could be said that the wheel of fortune had turned.
In the early game, Policewoman basically suppressed Cannon without any suspense. Before his equipment and level developed, Magnum was no match for Policewoman Caitlin. Although Fudan's ADC could still rely on his strength to stabilize the last hit, Policewoman was still a little behind in terms of last hits.
"The rhythm is good ~"
The members of several high school teams in the audience couldn't help but exclaim.
This game …
It seemed that Tongji didn't need to let the old jungler bear all the responsibility and pressure. They were playing well in all three lanes.
However, in the front row of the audience, Lin Feng shook his head.
"There's no point."
"You have to get a kill."
Yes.
If Tongji just slowly snowballed at this pace, then the situation was definitely something that Fudan University on the blue side would be happy to see. Such a disadvantage was completely acceptable, and they had absolute confidence that they could drag it out to the middle of the game. At that time, looking at the situation on the field, Tongji's advantage in the early game would quietly disappear.
Therefore, the early game lineup must play a fast rhythm.
Slow snowballing was not advisable.
To gain an advantage, it had to be immediate.
In other words —
It was to keep fighting to get a kill.
The game time reached the fifth minute. Summoner's Canyon was on the road. Suddenly, another female system announcement came.
"An enemy hero has been slain."
"Captain, nice!" Hanson on the purple side of Tongji couldn't help but feel excited. Cooperating with his old jungler Nightmare, he quickly passed the opponent's top tree and continued to chase the opposing jungler Excavator.
Seeing the opponent's jungler Excavator hand over "Flash", the old jungler Tongji signaled for them to retreat.
"Don't chase, it's enough."
This wave …
Nightmare chose to move around the road and crouch in the back grass.
Sure enough, it was Fudan's jungler Excavator.
With Hanson and Nightmare's explosive damage output far higher than their opponent's tree and excavator, Tongji and Ueno took the initiative to kill the tree that did not have [Flash]. This time, they followed up with the excavator's [Flash], creating yet another wave of beautiful rhythm.
However.
It was still not enough.
The old jungler Tongji took a deep breath and looked at the display in the upper right corner of the screen.
The most crucial wave that was brewing —
He had to wait for the game to reach seven to eight minutes.
He had to wait for him and Hanson to learn their ultimate skills.
That wave …
Was the most important wave of victory in the early game.
