If this was just an ordinary high level ranking game, then the purple team, which had a smooth journey so far, would undoubtedly have the upper hand.
The opponent had taken down all three lanes of defense and one tower.
The second Earth Dragon was also in their hands. The opponents didn't even dare to come up to stop them.
Jayz and Obama were both developing well. Sindera had also become fatter after the first wave of double kills. Not to mention, there was also the jungler Widow, who had the highest income in the match.
Logically speaking, with this pace and momentum, the purple team should be able to win this training match.
Even if this was a regular professional match, the purple team who had established such a huge advantage in the early stages of the match would already have won.
But.
It just so happened that this was a training match that was even more advanced than normal professional competitions.
The average strength of both sides had already surpassed the standard of ordinary first-rate professionals.
On the purple side, Lin Feng, An Xin, Shadow Puppet, and Shi Hang could all see that the situation seemed to be going well for them, but there was a hidden danger behind it.
If this continued …
Actually, the control of the rhythm and the battle situation would slowly change hands without anyone noticing.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the blue side didn't even try to snatch or stop the little dragon. However, that was only because the other side wanted to play it safe. If the other side really came to snatch it, it would be what the purple side wanted to see the most …
This period of time happened to be the purple team's strongest period.
But if the time went back …
Things wouldn't be like this.
On the other side, Ryze's Blazing Angel was almost fully stacked. The top lane Gnar and the jungler Excavator were also gradually raising their tanky equipment. Perhaps only the ADC, Policewoman's development was still a bit lacking, but if she was given another five minutes or so, she would be able to participate in the team battle.
The purple team was waiting now.
In a few minutes, their lineup's ability to fight head-on would be completely formed.
Just as Lin Feng had predicted, the next team battle would become more and more difficult for them.
There was only one reason —
In the past, they hadn't found the right opportunity to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop when they were at their weakest.
If they let the opponent recover and slowly develop, it would naturally be the purple team's turn to suffer when the opponent's lineup began to exert its strength.
"It's still the broken rhythm in the middle lane …"
The shadow puppet sighed.
Yes.
In the previous wave in the middle lane, it looked like Purple Team was still winning in terms of kills, but in reality, they were losing too much.
If the purple team had won the group battle earlier, then they would have been able to take advantage of the situation to force their opponent's second tower, and the snowball would have continued to roll …
"There aren't so many ifs."
Lin Feng shook his head, his eyes twinkling.
"Think about what to do next. For now, the initiative is still on our side. There is still a chance."
Shi Hang expressed his opinion:
"We can't let them drive first again."
"We have to take the initiative."
Indeed, in the previous wave of team battles in the middle lane, the opposing blue team had already fully displayed the characteristics of that lineup. They let Ryze use his ultimate skill to bring Gnar into the field. Then, Gnar transformed and used his ultimate skill to stun a large number of players, followed by the control of the excavator and Ryze's damage …
This combo was almost unbeatable.
"So it's useless to kill the policewoman." The shadow puppet continued, "The core is Ryze. It'll be easy to kill Ryze."
Lin Feng looked pensive.
"In terms of damage, Steamed Bun and I should be able to insta-kill someone."
"But we have to control that guy first."
In the purple team's lineup, Sindera's QE combo and the Japanese woman's ultimate skill or EQ combo could be considered as the first wave of control. If they could successfully control the target, there was no need to worry about the damage. They could directly kill the target.
Moreover, it just so happened that Ryze had used up his summoner's skill [Flash] in order to make the first move. So, if they wanted to find an opportunity, they had to hurry.
The few of them had basically settled on a plan. However, An Xin shook her head slightly.
"Maybe … it's not that simple."
…
An Xin's words were spot on.
When the match reached the 18th minute, Lin Feng and the others on the purple team's side were about to lead a little more troops and continue to press forward in the middle lane, but suddenly discovered that the opposing blue team had also changed their tactics.
They were no longer huddled together in the middle and passively defending.
Instead …
They started to split the lanes.
But the one who split the lanes was not even the top lane Gnar with [Teleport], but Morning Star's middle lane Ryze.
This change in tactics caused Lin Feng's eyelids to twitch slightly on the purple side.
"That's a little interesting …"
In fact, it was a little troublesome.
This was because if the Blue Army wanted to split the lanes, then even Tian Tian's Gnar wasn't the most suitable candidate. Firstly, he was slower in carrying the lane, and secondly, Gnar's equipment wasn't very developed yet. If he was caught by Widow's Gank while carrying the lane, he would die instantly.
But if it was Ryze …
It would be really different.
At this time, the Rune Mage had five or six kills in hand, and the number of last hits followed the time. His development had reached a level that was almost unbeatable. In a 1v1 situation, he was almost invincible. Coupled with the Blazing Angel that was about to stack, he had two health bars. Even if he encountered Widow's Gank, he would not be too afraid —
If he could not beat her, he could just use an ultimate skill and run away.
He could still run away.
But if Widow didn't come to capture people, then Ryze could carry the damage by himself. Even the purple side couldn't find a suitable person to defend against him. If Jayz met Ryze now, he wouldn't be able to handle one set of damage. If he were to deal two sets of damage, he might even be killed by the tower.
But once Widow went over …
It would be fine if she caught him.
But if Ryze retreated in advance and circled back to the middle lane, then it would be the purple team's turn to be bombed.
"This move … can be said to be equivalent to Morning Star." Shi Hang took a light breath, feeling a toothache.
Yes.
Most people in the professional esports circle were familiar with the mid lane captain of Team God. In the past, he had used his personal advantage established in the early stages of the game to single-carry in the mid and late stages of a disadvantageous situation, and then successfully reversed the situation countless times.
Now, this was the old trick that he was best at, being brought to the table again.
It was as headache-inducing as ever.
For now, the purple team did not seem to have a good way to deal with it. They could only let Shi Hang control Jayz to the side to guard against Ryze.
"It's not a problem for me to guard the lane. At worst, I can just hide under the tower," Shi Hang muttered. "But we can't drag this on. I can't guard for too long. The defense tower will definitely fall. We have to think of a way."
Lin Feng nodded.
"Makes sense."
"So don't let them drag."
"If Ryze wants to carry, let him carry."
"We'll force it."
Shi Hang was taken aback. "Then we still have to find an opportunity … With Ryze carrying, the middle lane will definitely be under the tower. It's not easy to find an opportunity —"
But a certain someone had already directly and decisively cut him off.
"Even if there's no opportunity, we'll still do it."
