Chapter 71 Breaking the situation!
Without hesitation, Li Zhixing decisively locked onto Olaf and Sun!
The two commentators were a bit stunned by the jungler's two moves.
With Olaf's high burst damage and Leona's reliable crowd control, everyone knows that RISE is planning to dominate the bot lane this game.
"But to be fair, there's a reason why Olaf was chosen."
Kim Dong-jun laughed and said, "After all, the ultimate's immunity to crowd control can ignore Morgana and Vi's restrictions."
"That's true." Roaring Emperor nodded, but he still didn't approve of RISE's decision.
After all, KT targeted them so effectively in the draft phase, so their tactical preparations must have been even more extensive.
It's not like we can't play other lanes, so why insist on playing the bottom lane?
That's a bit too arrogant.
As they were talking, KT also completed their final selection of their two carries.
With AD Sivir paired with Morgana, the bot lane can almost guarantee stable development, leaving Mata with very little room to maneuver with Leona.
With Ahri paired with Vi in the mid lane, the entire lineup is practically perfect.
Upon seeing the fox, Lee Sang-hyeok did not hesitate for long and decisively locked onto Blade's Shadow.
Lee Sang-hyeok and Talon's connection began in a ranked game.
As the year drew to a close, he chose the fox and encountered Li Zhixing's male sword.
He was badly beaten that time.
It was in that game that he was surpassed by Li Zhixing, dropping to second place in the Korean server, and he hasn't been able to catch up since.
Since then, Lee Sang-hyeok has added Talon, a champion he wasn't originally good at, to his champion pool, which can be considered as making him even stronger.
Although picking Talon might leave the team lacking AP damage, it's not a big problem. KT's lineup doesn't have any tanks, and Alchemist's AP damage is sufficient.
The lineups for both sides are now finalized.
Blue side KT: Top lane Volibear, Jungle Vi, Mid lane Ahri, Bot lane Sivir and Morgana.
Red team RISE: Top laner Alchemist, jungler Olaf, mid laner Talon, bot lane Caitlyn and Leona.
"Judging from this, both junglers should be farming down there."
Kim Dong-jun analyzed, "RISE's bot lane duo is too strong. KT can't fight back. If their jungler Vi doesn't come to protect them, they'll definitely get tower-dived!"
RISE's playing style is now well understood throughout OGN.
If it were at the beginning of the Spring Split, there might still be some inexperienced junglers playing their own games or farming upwards in an attempt to mitigate losses in the other half of the map.
But now RISE is 5-0 and ranked first in the league. Anyone knows that if you let RISE's bot lane go unchecked, you're doomed.
Therefore, jungler KaKao has no choice but to farm in the bottom lane.
The match began quickly!
This time, Li Zhixing did not choose to buy the hunter's broadsword, but instead bought the Doran's Sword and a small potion bottle before rushing out of the spring.
This version of the jungle item provides extra damage and health regeneration when clearing jungle camps, allowing many junglers to defeat jungle monsters.
However, it doesn't provide extra jungle monster experience like in later versions, so it's not a necessity for junglers.
Therefore, champions like Olaf and Lee Sin, who are naturally good at clearing jungle camps, can buy Doran's Blade at the start of the game to clear the jungle. Their jungle clearing speed won't be much slower, but they will be much stronger in jungle battles.
That's right. Li Zhixing's idea was simple: since he knew that the enemy jungler would definitely farm downhill, why didn't he take advantage of this information and invade directly?
If you can't solve the problem, solve the person who raised it. If you can't get past the bottom lane, then kill the jungler first!
Olaf first started with red buff with the help of alchemy, then quickly cleared the F4, at which point his mana bar was almost depleted.
Olaf absolutely needs the blue buff; if he starts with red buff, he'll need to plan his route more carefully.
Li Zhixing first went to the lower half of the map to farm the blue buff, and then went back to kill the three wolves, which also allowed him to reach level three.
With his health dropping below half, Li Zhixing drank the only potion he had and then charged straight into KT's bottom red buff area!
Currently, no one in the world understands NIO better than Li Zhixing.
Even though KT's jungle was completely dark, he could clearly determine Vi's current location by the time it took to tell him.
Of course, it may not be accurate, since the opponent's jungle clearing technique may not be as efficient as his, and they may clear the jungle more slowly.
But that doesn't stop him from squatting down on people.
Nowadays, professional teams will place defensive wards in the weaker jungle areas, so Li Zhixing did not directly enter the opponent's jungle, but instead chose to go around to the bottom lane.
When a bot laner is at a disadvantage in the laning phase and the jungler will definitely gank the bottom lane, very few bot laners will build anti-gank wards, since these wards are useless except for wasting money.
Of course, if KT has some crazy idea and insists on making wards, that's fine too. Li Zhixing can also judge by the actions of the opposing bottom laner and thus withdraw in time.
Olaf walked from the triangular bushes into the opposite red zone, and then headed towards the Golem camp.
Seeing that the opposing duo remained unmoved after switching screens, Li Zhixing knew what was going on and took the opportunity to circle around to the red buff camp.
At this moment, the Red Buff camp was completely empty.
However, the minimap shows that the enemy's red buff is still alive.
Li Zhixing's thoughts raced, and he used Q, "Reverse Throw," to throw the item directly into the nearby bushes.
Sure enough, the sound effect of the skill hitting the target came through the headphones!
Olaf ducked into the bushes and, as expected, saw a red buff with half health and Vi with only half health remaining.
Seeing Olaf arrive, Vi turned and ran, but was slowed down by "Reverse Throw" and struggled to move.
Li Zhixing's lips curled up.
That's all.
Olaf pressed close to Vi's face, picked up his axe, and unleashed a burst of damage with an AoE, followed by a close-range Q.
If it hits, it will continuously apply a slowing effect.
For Wei, there's no way he can escape without paying a price.
KT jungler KaKao, seeing that his Q had two seconds left on cooldown, first turned around and created distance.
However, Li Zhixing was fully aware of his thoughts, and Olaf took advantage of the slowdown to stick to Vi, giving her no angle to escape with his Q.
Forced into a corner, Kakao could only grit his teeth and forcefully charge his Q. The instant the Q was fully charged, he flashed away and then quickly unleashed his Q.
Once Li Zhixing reacted swiftly, having already made ample preparations, he flashed out almost as soon as Wei flashed out, and his flash followed in sync!
Olaf took Vi's punch squarely, blocking it with his bare hands!
Olaf unleashed a phantom attack with his twin axes, unleashing a devastating AEAQ combo that emptied Vi's health bar!
"First blood!"
"First blood has been drawn! And it's still Neo!" someone in the commentary booth shouted.
The audience below the stage erupted in cheers.
The voice of another commentator continued to come in rapid succession.
"The jungler is dead, what about the bot lane!?"
In the video, Olaf, having secured a solo kill, continues his advance towards the bottom lane.
Because Olaf was already in KT's bottom jungle, it was easy for him to be cut off on the duo's push lane.
Without the jungler's protection, KT's bot lane duo could only retreat towards the second tower.
The two were in decent condition and retreated together. Li Zhixing's Olaf was certainly not capable of stopping them.
But it doesn't matter.
Li Zhixing simply watched the two retreat to the second tower, while he waited for his teammates to push the minion wave into the tower before joining up with them.
With a large wave of minions and the combined efforts of three players, including Olaf, a tower-pushing expert, taking down the bottom lane tower was more than enough.
