Chapter 724 Watch Me Ambush Him
The Chinese commentator was surprised when he saw the fourth Pike on the blue side.
Miller: "Pike? I feel that KT's Pike is a bit weird. Although Tusin does have a Pike support, EZ + Pike in the bottom lane will go to jail. I feel that it is more reliable to switch Sett to the support than Pike. Even if Pike hooks these two people in the line, it is likely that they will not be able to beat them."
Remember: "Well~ Let's think about it from another angle. Even if Sett is switched to the support, KT's bottom lane will not have the right to line up. If EZ wants to grab the right to line up, he can only pair with soft supports like Karma, but if he really chooses Karma, he is afraid of Pantheon. So just choose Pike to roam early and compete with the roaming ability of the supports of both sides."
Zeyuan: "Reasonable! There is no routine in DWG's game strategy that relies on the bottom lane to break through. Beryl, the player, must roam, and Pike's roaming ability is also very strong. Let the ADs of both sides play by themselves in the bottom lane."
As soon as the voice fell, KT saw that the last pick was the Warwick.
The commentator was even more confused now.
Zeyuan: "What is this? KT started to make a big move right at the start of the finals. This is the first time that Rengar has appeared in the world championship this year! Rengar as a jungler and Pike as a support. KT's lineup highlights a charming character."
Jijie: "KT's jungler and support seem to be playing tempo, but this lineup feels a bit strange... I can only say that Bono still has something! In this version, Volibear and Prince are fine, but now Rengar and jungler are all out."
No one knows that this Rengar is what Lin Cheng wants to play. After all, Sett is more reliable in the top lane.
DWG doesn't care what the opponent is going to do. In the end, they locked Ornn for Nugu, hoping that Niu Bao can withstand the pressure of Lin Cheng.
Zefa did not consider giving Niu Bao a long-range weapon to suppress Sett. For example, Nugu is also good at heroes like Jayce.
But Lin Cheng's unique skill is to use short-range weapons to beat long-range heroes. If such a scene really occurs, it means that the top lane is useless. The risk is too high.
The players on the field began to exchange heroes.
Ze Yuan: "Okay! He picked Ornn against Sett. Coach Zefa has great trust in Niu Bao. You know, in his debut match in LCK, Brother Orange used Sett to beat Canna's Ornn."
Remember: "Hey! Sett doesn't seem to be the top laner... Brother Orange, is this the top laner Warwick?"
The commentator realized something was wrong at this time. Until the last 20 seconds of the exchange of picks, Warwick was still on the first floor of the blue side.
Everyone dared to confirm that it was indeed Lin Cheng who used Warwick.
Jijie: "Wow! It's really a top lane Warwick! In my impression, only Bwipo in Europe can use this thing. Can Orange also use it?"
Zeyuan: "Is Orange's hero sea kidding you? But it's true that we don't know what this Warwick is about yet. KT's lineup is not easy to analyze. In this version, it is a bit beyond the scope of the commentator's understanding."
Miller: "Well, relatively speaking, DWG's lineup is very solid. If I just look at the lineup, I will definitely tend to DWG, but I can never look at Orange's heroes with a conventional perspective... After all, except for Orange, you can't find a knife girl who can kill the whole world. "
"He's alive right from the start! Cheng brother really didn't disappoint."
"Top lane Warwick! Orange brother, did you learn this from the master brother in the Canyon of Heroes?"
"I tried Warwick to fight Ornn, and died 20 times. I jumped over and was hammered."
"Don't use your little cat to touch Orange brother's lion."
The lineups of both sides are determined.
Blue side KT:
Top lane: Cheng (Pride Hunter, Rengar)
Jungle: Bono (Wuji, Sett)
Mid: Kuro (Desert Emperor, Azir)
Bottom lane: Aimin (Explorer, Ezreal)
Support: Tusin (Bloodhaven Apparition, Pike)
Red side DWG:
Top lane: Nugu (Hidden Flame, Ornn)
Jungle: Canyon (Outlaw, Graves)
Mid lane: Showmaker (Clockwork Summon, Orianna)
Bottom lane: Gohst (Miss Piltover, Caitlyn)
Support: Beryl (Lance of the Unyielding, Pantheon)
In terms of runes, Lin Cheng chose the main system Precision: Conqueror, Triumph, Resilience, Critical Strike, and the secondary system Domination: Sudden Impact, Ultimate Hunter.
The hero Rengar has undoubtedly been benched in the arena. Now it is almost extinct in the game. In the eyes of many people, it is not suitable for the rhythm of the arena.
However, in Lin Cheng's opinion, there are indeed other better alternatives for the jungler, but the top-lane Warwick is still very distinctive. This hero's ability to cover the jungle is no worse than that of Shen.
Moreover, Warwick's early laning ability is very strong, and it is not afraid of long-handed top laners.
In fact, from the second half of S9 to the S10 Spring Split, top-lane Warwick was still popular in the Korean server for a while. At that time, Conqueror was at its strongest. Warwick relied on the top lane bush to instantly stack Conqueror and could fight any strong top laner, but later, few people used it.
On the contrary, there are still people playing top-lane Warwick in the Canyon of Heroes. Lin Cheng encountered it when he was RANKing some time ago.
Entering the game, Lin Cheng bought Doran's Blade + Red Potion and went straight to the top lane river bush to stand in the field of vision.
In the first game, both teams were very stable. Their positions in parallel rivers did not collide, and there was no five-on-one tragedy in the canyon.
The mid lane soldiers arrived first, and Kuro and Showmaker fought fiercely to grab the line at level 1.
However, Tsar still had an advantage at level 1 with the sand soldiers. Kuro pushed the line first and immediately ran to the opponent's F6 to place a ward to detect the opening route of the male gun.
DWG obviously let Niu Bao choose Ornn and did not want to fight with Lin Cheng on the top. The male gun brushed from top to bottom, and the movement of the duo grabbing the line showed that DWG wanted to protect the bottom lane.
It was not that the ghost emperor had a high tactical position, but that DWG wanted to release Beryl's Pantheon as soon as possible and let the support lead the rhythm.
In the top lane, Lin Cheng, who was the first to go online, did not choose to pull the soldiers first, but stood in the top bush first.
Although Niu Bao was very experienced and followed the minions to the river, he didn't expect Lin Cheng to be so fierce. After the melee minions of both sides started to exchange fire, Lin Cheng directly controlled the Warwick to jump to Ornn next to the ranged minions.
With a roar, Warwick flew to Ornn's side. While the claws in his left hand swung out, Lin Cheng immediately used the Q skill to reset the basic attack, and Warwick's scimitar in his right hand chopped down fiercely.
Ornn raised his hammer with his backhand, and AQ wanted to pull back.
Because Warwick's Q skill resets the basic attack and increases the attack speed of the next two attacks, Warwick hit an extra basic attack when Ornn's Q skill was used.
But Lin Cheng still lost health in this wave.
Because Ornn has bone plating, and Warwick still jumped up against the minions and was slowed down by Ornn, and took more damage from the minions when he pulled away from the bushes.
It seems that Lin Cheng's fierceness is a bit unreasonable.
But Lin Cheng had expected this.
Let the opponent swell first, and watch me ambush him!
