One kill in the first four minutes of the game.
Long before the start of this training match, players from various clubs had a basic understanding of the strength and playstyle of the two top laners from Minx.
This was especially true for Minx's mid-laner, Fly. In the second training match against MLG in the morning, this new mid-laner had achieved a solo kill against the veteran Seventh King Tier powerhouse, Spoon. That was what truly shocked everyone.
In comparison …
As one of the two core members of Minx, The Sword, as the top laner of the team, did not meet particularly outstanding opponents in the two matches in the morning. Therefore, even if he managed to crush them in the lane, the impression he left on most other teams was not as deep as the impression they had of Fly.
Until now.
Through the electronic screen in the training room or the first-person perspective of the players on the field, they personally saw Ike's solo-kill maneuver in the purple square top lane. Almost everyone present could not help but feel a chill run down their spines and straight to their heads.
This Ike —
So fierce!
That's right. Compared to the so-called "strong", The Sword's Time Assassin displayed a fierce and sharp trait that made people's scalps tingle.
In this round, Team God had been very vigilant against Minx's top laner during the ban round. They deliberately banned the hero Blade Girl. They also selected a top laner, Twilight Eye, and were prepared to resist the pressure.
But unexpectedly …
He was still so quickly killed by a solo kill.
Being cautious against Ike in the early lane, and in the case that the opponent did not bring out the Summoner's skill, Ignite, and was solo-killed, there was naturally a problem that could not be shirked.
If they did not see the solo kill with their own eyes, anyone who heard this would subconsciously think that there was definitely a problem with being cautious.
But.
After witnessing this scene with their own eyes.
However, everyone in the training room was speechless.
Among them were the main top laners of various club teams, and even some well-known veteran top laners.
They could only open their mouths, but they found that their mouths were a little dry.
Because they tried to imagine themselves in the situation of the blue top laner, Twilight Eye, on the field just now, and the conclusion they came up with made their hearts palpitate and tremble —
If it were them, they would have encountered a wave of attacks like that just now.
Similarly.
He couldn't block it.
Below the stage, Autumn looked at Lin Feng again. She still didn't say anything, but it wasn't hard to understand what she was trying to say.
Lin Feng looked solemn and serious.
At the beginning of the match, he was the one who told Autumn to "wait and see".
However, the current situation was that he didn't have the chance to show Autumn what she wanted to see. Instead, he had to witness the strength of Minx's top laner with his own eyes.
Everyone's previous descriptions of him were not wrong at all.
Furthermore …
Perhaps he was too conservative.
There was no need to discuss and analyze the specific details of each step of Ike's solo kill, but as a whole, there was only one impression left on people —
Swift and fierce.
It was the purest and ultimate sharpness.
In the esports circle, or even in the entire six seasons of League of Legends, there had never been a top laner who could display his offensive style to the fullest.
Lin Feng had played against J, the legendary European player from the previous generation. But even compared to J, Minx's top laner, The-Sword, was much more direct and aggressive in his laning.
It really was …
The sharpness was so sharp that the spectators felt a slight sting in their eyes.
It was also at this moment that Lin Feng finally agreed with Autumn's previous judgement. Team COG's Seven King top laner, Seven, was definitely no match for The-Sword. Even if it was Fatty, he might not be able to match up against him.
As if she could guess what Lin Feng was thinking, Autumn looked at Lin Feng again.
"Do you understand?"
"A top laner like him … It's not an exaggeration to say that among the current pro top laners, there's almost no one who can compete with him."
Lin Feng nodded, but then he paused for a moment and suddenly shook his head.
"Not necessarily."
… …
"What do you think?"
Mafa turned his head to look at his jungler beside him as he asked.
The rest of SSK's members also turned to look at him.
Although they were both from the LCK division, they had not played against Minx many times in their own regional leagues. More importantly, compared to Fly, the top laner of Minx, The-Sword, was only played by Minx at the end of the season. Therefore, today's match was a rare opportunity for the SSK players to observe him from such a close distance.
Of course, with their skill and vision, it was not difficult for them to see the strength of Team Minx's top laner through a wave of kills on the top laner. But after all, each of them had their own specialties, and when it came to understanding the top laner … only their own top laners had the right to speak.
At this moment, Wolf's gaze slowly moved away from the purple Ike on the electronic screen. He seemed to be thinking for a while.
"Without the help of his jungler, Seven will be destroyed in the lane.
"If YGG plays it safe, he'll have a forty to sixty chance of winning."
Two sentences.
These were the most direct and incisive comments on the top laners of the Seven Kings in the esports industry.
However, it seemed that the SSK players present were not too interested in the two world-renowned top laners. Ray, the team's ADC, raised an eyebrow and looked at his top laner.
"What about you?"
It was also a very direct question.
It was as if the SSK players' attitude and logic towards their opponents were as simple and direct as that —
I don't care how strong the opponent is.
I don't care about anyone else.
I just want to know if our teammates can handle this kind of opponent.
This question made Wolf ponder for a while, then he shook his head and said, "There's too little information. It sounds like I'm bragging if I just jump to conclusions."
However, after saying these seemingly humble words, the SSK top laner paused for a moment, then as if he thought of something, he added,
"But if it's the same maneuver just now."
"If I'm Shen."
"Ike will die."
Compared to the chatter of the audience, the atmosphere on the blue team, Team God, had suddenly become tense due to the sudden loss of a HP.
"My —"
Team God's top laner was extremely annoyed. His minions had been pushed to his own tower, and he was about to retreat when he was forced to the bottom of Ike's tower. Furthermore, he was still holding onto a fluke and did not hand over his Blink at the first moment. By the time he handed over his Blink … it was already his grave.
"What's the point of saying this! Play it safe next! "
Snowy Nightsong's annoyed voice could be heard from the team's live chat.
"Damn it, his top lane is so fast … How the f * ck am I supposed to catch up to him at the bottom lane!?"
