"Speaking of which, there's nothing wrong with Star King's selection of a Card Master mid laner."
On the internet, in the official livestream of a certain domestic livestream platform, a guest commentator who used to be a professional player in the national server was specially invited. At this moment, he was also analyzing and evaluating the millions of players in the livestream channel.
"Cards are not only able to coordinate with Jayz in the top lane and Tam in the bottom lane."
"Coincidentally, it's also a tactic to counter SSK's four consecutive insta-kills of Victor."
"As everyone can see, God F has already chosen four Mechanical Pioneers. Logically speaking, no one would have thought that a hero that focused on farming lanes in the early stages would be able to unleash such terrifying power by God F. However, Victor's hero … does have a certain drawback."
"Yes, Victor stabilizes the tempo in the early stages, only farming lanes and not attacking. It's indeed very frustrating."
"For example, God has been trying to suppress the lane by using a strong mid laner hero in the first three rounds. However, even though Star King has been trying very hard, it hasn't been effective. Victor will still be able to smoothly grow through the early stages."
"So … this time, God has changed his mind."
"You can choose Victor, whatever you want. If you want to grow, then let's let you grow. I won't stop you."
"In any case, I've chosen a Card Master who will similarly farm lanes with you in the early stages. After Level 6, I'll start roaming the GA.
k！”
The Chinese players in the live broadcast room suddenly came to a realization and revealed a look of surprise.
That's right!
That's the logic!
You chose Victor for stable growth in the early stages and not to fight with me.
If I don't take the initiative to fight with you and bring out a mid laner hero with strong roaming ability, it'll be your turn to feel uncomfortable.
Cards are originally afraid of being suppressed by strong heroes in the early stages of the game. Although your Victor is strong in farming lanes, in terms of suppressing the lane … it's not a threat to my Card Master at all.
Then when I reach Level 6, you can continue farming lanes if you have the ability. My Card Master will directly roam the side lane and wait for me to use all kinds of GA.
When K has the advantage in kills, will you still be able to sit still in the middle lane?
"Of course I can't sit still."
The former professional player who was specially invited gave a firm judgment. Then, his tone became a little more solemn.
"However, there is one prerequisite —"
"I'm not afraid of Victor in a one-on-one fight, but if I'm targeted by the jungler … it's hard to say."
…
In the first three matches of the set of best-of-five matches, God won the first match. Following that, SSK followed up with two more matches, and the score became 2: 1.
In the last two matches, SSK returned to their peak form. Naturally, Hand of God was no match for them. However, even though Team God won the first match, it was mostly due to Snowy Nightsong's amazing play and Morning Star's perfect defense against Han Shihao.
As for the position of the jungler —
Even from the perspective of their own LPL region, the Chinese players and netizens had to admit that the main jungler of Team God was much weaker than SSK's Mafa, one of the two junglers in the world.
If he switched his jungler to Nian Thirteen, he would be able to compete with Mafa in terms of matchups.
The overall strength of Team God would no longer be inferior to SSK.
However, this was only a hypothesis.
The truth was that Team God was weaker than SSK in terms of jungler. Correspondingly, Morning Star, as the purple team's mid laner, would have to bear a much greater threat.
"If Prince can help share the burden, it'll be easier when the card reaches level six."
"But if he doesn't keep an eye on Mafa's excavator, he'll be able to kill the card a few times … No, even if it's just once —"
"This is going to be troublesome."
On the internet, in the live broadcast rooms of all the major domestic platforms, almost all the guest commentators made the same conclusion.
And at this moment.
The match lasted for a little over three minutes.
Attracting the attention of almost every player in the world, SSK's jungler quietly crept toward the middle lane after clearing out the two groups of monsters in his team.
Void Digger's figure moved silently under the water.
It entered the grass at the river mouth on the right side of the middle lane.
On the middle lane, the blue team's mid laner, Victor, seemed to be steadily killing the ace soldiers, but intentionally or unintentionally, he was avoiding a direct confrontation with the opponent's card and slowly moving his troops over.
Victor's acting was too good.
As a Card Master, he might not be able to see the slightest hint of abnormality in the game.
However, if one were to watch the match from God's perspective, all the Chinese players and netizens would feel their hearts tighten —
It's over!
Something bad is going to happen.
Although the Mechanical Pioneer, which had just reached level 2, did not have enough explosive damage, and it was difficult for the Excavator to instantly kill a Card Master who was in good condition, as long as he could force the Card Master to use Flash and damage his HP, it would be fatal for Morning Star's side.
"This Star Emperor does not have [Teleport]."
Some of the China international students in the audience noticed this detail and could not help but exclaim anxiously.
That's right, the summoner skills that the Card Master brought this round were [Flash] and [Sprint], which strengthened Drizzt's mobility and agility in team battles. However, there were also drawbacks.
The drawback was that you did not have [Teleport]. If you were forced to return to the city early in the middle lane, you would lose at least an entire wave of minions when you returned to the middle lane.
The difference in the number of minions in the middle lane would have a huge impact on the early phase of the lane.
Not to mention that you were killed by GA in the first wave.
K used [Flash]. If he waited for the jungler to wander around again, he would definitely die.
Then the Card Master was destined to be suppressed under the tower.
Without the right to push the minions in the middle lane, the role of the Card Master's roaming would be greatly reduced.
The situation would naturally collapse bit by bit.
…
In the middle lane.
The Card Master still did not seem to notice the arrival of danger.
Victor seemed to be preparing to block the minions at the edge of the range of his defense tower. He stepped forward to block a few purple long-range minions.
The Card Master, who did not intend to let his opponent have his way, naturally pressed forward and raised his hand to attack.
Victor countered with a backhand.
Blood exchange.
The mid laners from both sides simultaneously stepped to the side to cancel the attack and then attacked the A.
However, from the God's perspective, everyone was shocked to see that under Han Shihao's control, the Mechanical Pioneer deliberately moved to the left, quietly allowing the opponent to subconsciously move to the right.
This also brought him closer to the bushes where the excavator was crouching.
The next moment.
Victor moved forward again.
Another normal attack followed by a Q quickly took out a chunk of the HP bar on top of the Card Master's head. The Card Master retaliated with another normal attack, triggering the additional damage of the passive skill. A bunch of card pieces exploded on top of the Mechanical Pioneer's head.
The distance between the mid laners on both sides was suddenly shortened.
The next moment.
In the bushes on the right side of the middle lane, the blue team's jungler suddenly emerged from the bushes and quickly pounced towards the Card Master!
At the scene, on the official commentary platform, several western commentators exclaimed excitedly at the same time:
"It's here!"
