At the very least, for the BW team members in the training room, they had never expected that the first kill in this match would be given to their blue team's hero.
Hence, when the opposing jungler, Blind Monk, invaded their team's blue field and used [Chain Smite] to snatch the mobs in the wild, followed by taking away the health of their teammate's Excavator, the BW players could not help but widen their eyes in shock —
This …
First kill?!
In contrast, the Quick Water Club members on the other side of the spectator crowd were cheering and jumping in joy. They were not surprised at all. They were even bragging to the Assassin Squad members beside them, who had their eyes wide open in shock.
"See, I told you guys that we're good at killing buffaloes!"
"Just one kill!"
"The opposing excavator is going to collapse! Hahaha!"
The Assassin Squad members could not help but feel excited after the initial shock.
"Yeah!"
"This Li Qing is so aggressive!"
"It feels like he has the same style as our captain! Six! "
In the early stages of the game, the Blind Monk's combat ability in the wilderness was naturally much stronger than that of an excavator, Rexel. However, capturing people in the wilderness required courage and meticulousness. You had to keep your eyes and ears open to make sure that no other opponents would come to your aid. At the same time, you had to calculate the exact position of the opponent's jungler. Otherwise, it would be a waste of your time if you missed.
There was even a detail to this wave of one-hit kills.
When the Blind Monk invaded the upper half of the opponent's wilderness, the Blind Monk did not even bother to poke his eyes. Instead, he used a Q skill, "Sky Sound Wave", across the wall.
A blind Q.
The Blind Monk had miraculously hit the target with a Q skill.
Otherwise, if the Blind Monk had poked his eyes to confirm the opponent's position, Wood's excavator would have immediately reacted and become alert. With the skills and hand speed of a professional player, it was very likely that he would have dodged the Blind Monk's Q skill.
On one hand, the Assassin Squad members were excited for the Blind Monk's first kill. On the other hand, they also felt that Li Qing's blind Q skill had an element of luck to it.
However, when the Quick Water Club members learned of their thoughts, they immediately shook their heads and denied the Assassin Squad members' conjecture.
"Luck?"
"No, no, no … Bro, you're thinking too much."
"Most people might say it's luck, but for this person to be able to pull off such a feat … it's definitely skill!"
His solemn vow and confident manner stunned the Assassin's team members.
This... was achieved through strength?
Did that mean that he was at the same level as their team leader, Nian Thirteen?
…
"This fellow sure is confident."
In the front row of the audience, Nian Thirteen also squinted at someone on the field. "He didn't even put his eyes in and just blindly Q through the wall … F * ck, the excavator on the other side is also an idiot. When he encountered Li Qing, the jungler on the other side, he actually took the most conventional route to farm the jungler. He deserved to be blindly Q'd."
His tone was filled with disdain towards BW's substitute jungler, Wood.
Yes.
Perhaps there was indeed a little bit of luck involved.
However, someone's prediction of the excavator's movements in this wave of jungle invasion was also based on a corresponding basis. According to the time, a jungler on the blue team would normally farm from the bottom half of the jungle all the way up. When someone walked to the opponent's blue buff jungle and saw that the blue buff jungle was empty —
In addition, there were still crabs in the river, so it was not difficult to deduce that the excavator on the other side was playing Toad.
If it were a professional jungler with a higher skill level, he would not have chosen the most conventional route so hastily. Instead, he would have made some corresponding adjustments to prevent his opponent from figuring out his position and coming over to grab him.
"We can't ask for too much."
An Xin smiled.
"After all … the opponent is just a substitute jungler from BW."
Li Shiyi, Ceng Rui, and Tang Bingyao nodded in agreement. Indeed, the opponent was just a substitute jungler from BW. How could a jungler of this level have a good ending against someone?
At this moment, Nian Thirteen seemed a little disinterested.
"Sigh, there's nothing to see anymore."
"This is already the start of the match, but it's going to be a one-sided slaughter —"
Indeed, if a jungler had reached his level, he would have to be extremely cautious even at the start of the match. This was because if he made a single mistake, even if it was just one step, he would lose the entire game.
For example, in the previous match between the Hitman Squad and BW, his jungler Olaf was only squatted once by Nate's Panther Lady. After that, he did not even have a chance to retaliate. His opponent's snowball kept growing, and he could only passively endure the beating.
Right now, it was as if someone's Blind Monk had entered the jungle and taken the excavator's head, one health, and two buffs. This had directly cut off the excavator's most important early game rhythm.
Under such circumstances, even if Nian Thirteen or SSK's Mafa were in his place, they would not be able to deal with the excavator, much less a substitute jungler from BW.
Therefore, it was easy to imagine what would happen next.
It would be a one-sided slaughter.
However, the opponent was of such a level. Even if they won, it would be considered as bullying. Even as a spectator, it was difficult for them to feel satisfied and accomplished.
"It's only interesting to see the expressions of the BW players —"
Nian Thirteen glanced at the BW Club members on the other side of the spectators and curled his lips as he gave his evaluation.
Li Shiyi, Ceng Rui, Tang Bingyao, and An Xin also looked over.
Indeed.
They could see that the other BW coaches and team leaders, including BW's ace jungler Nate, had dark expressions on their faces.
…
"What's wrong with this Wood?!"
One of the BW coaches could not help but feel angry. Initially, he had high hopes for their substitute jungler. In the end, Wood had slapped them in the face with the truth on the battlefield.
One health, two buffs, and the toad was stolen. Even the excavator had used up all his skills, while Li Qing had left Blink behind.
"Now … Li Qing's rhythm is starting to pick up."
Another coach began to frown, feeling that things were getting tricky. After all, a hero like the Blind Monk was a huge threat in the early stages of the game.
"Quick Water's substitute jungler doesn't seem that weak …"
The coaches could not help but discuss among themselves.
Nate sneered when he heard that.
"He's just lucky. That idiot Wood even took the initiative to give him a chance. It doesn't seem like Li Qing's skill level is that high."
"Moreover, the most important thing about Li Qing is his ability to lead the tempo in the early stages. If he can't do that, there's no point in killing him!"
The coaches perked up when they heard this.
"That makes sense."
"Nate is right. Junglers … still have to rely on their ability to lead the tempo."
"Wood is quite good in this aspect. If he develops steadily, he can still win!"
One minute later.
Summoner's Canyon, the bottom half of the blue jungle.
The female voice of the system announced the kill once again.
"You've been killed!"
Wood, who was sitting in front of his computer screen, stared at the black-and-white game screen in front of him. He was completely dumbfounded.
On the purple team's side, someone who had completed another solo kill in the jungle looked relaxed and calm.
Yes.
That's the right tempo.
