[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 188
SY vs SCV (6)Of course, it was impossible for others to know those circumstances.
“I thought they might pick something like Lisandra against Rainbow's LeBlanc, but Baiga came out! I'm really looking forward to seeing what OlDay will show!”
“Yes! I don't know how long it's been since Baiga was in the mid lane, but now that it's out, it has to show the meaning of the pick?!”
“That's right! While we're talking, the long-awaited set 5, starting─ now─!!!”
The final set began in earnest with the booming sound of the caster's voice.
-One, two, three SY fighting!!!!
-Two, two, three SCV fighting!!!!
Perhaps because it was the final match, the fans of both teams were also relentless.
-Welcome to the Summoner's Rift!
Blue team SCV.
Red team SY.
Both teams revealed their appearances.
“…It’s started.”
-D G D G D G D G D G
-Something big's coming
-SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!SY!
-SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!SCV!
-Get rid of the brainless spammers, fuck
-Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!Rainbow!
-Ugh, the spam is annoying, I'll go watch somewhere else ㅅㄱ
-Ok, bye
Should I be thankful?
Perhaps because of the anticipation for the upcoming match, Kim Jae-min's remarks were quickly buried.
In any case, this match was the most important thing for the viewers.
"Ugh."
“…Yes, yes?”
I'll see you later.

A loud ping is marked in each other's camps.
The final set of the finals.
The physical and mental strength of both sides has already been drained. Even the slightest variable can be fatal.
“It seems like they're being careful early on, right?”
“They have no choice. Both teams have come to the 5th set after a chaotic, bloody battle. The slightest mistake will lead to irreversible consequences.”
As the commentators said, the positions of the champions of both teams were standard.
Both teams' tops are hiding in the top lane bush and the three-way intersection bush, respectively, and both mids are revealing the mid lane vision to each other.
And the junglers are hiding in the bushes near their respective jungle starting positions to avoid showing their positions to each other, and the bot lanes have already arrived in the nearby bushes.
After a fierce early vision battle between each other.
-Minions have spawned!
The main lane phase has begun.
-Look at how careful they are ㄷㄷ
-I'm all tense
-Who's at an advantage?
“SY is at an advantage early on, but if they don't snowball properly, SCV has the advantage.”
The concept of both teams' compositions is clear.
The anxious side is SY.
Considering that, in the nature of a best-of-five series, games often go into a long game because of the lack of concentration on both sides, SCV might be at an advantage.
But…
‘The opponent is SY.’
And at the center of that snowballing is Rainbow's LeBlanc in the mid lane.
A player who can break even the disadvantage of the ban-pick with power.
Therefore, it was beyond words to rashly predict this match.
‘Hmm.’
That's why, OlDay's Baiga was being cautious from the beginning.
Ignoring the mid lane push initiative, it was as if he was aiming for the late game.
“What's noteworthy is that OlDay's Baiga is completely staying out of the lane from the start, right?”
“That's right! He could easily get ganked if he pushes the lane, and if he makes a mistake, he could even be solo-killed. He seems to be careful in advance.”
“But is it okay to give up the mid lane initiative like this? We've already experienced enough of what Rainbow's LeBlanc, with her feet loose, is like in today's match.”
-Baiga can't even breathe from level 1?
-But isn't he not breathing on purpose?
-Hmm...
Why was Baiga discontinued in the current meta?
There are various reasons, but the biggest reason is the laning phase.
If the laning phase was somehow bearable, Baiga would have been used as a joker pick from time to time due to the potential of the champion.
But even those advantages were overshadowed by Baiga's clear disadvantages.
“This next part is important.”
In fact, even if it's a pick with a weak laning phase, getting solo-killed isn't that common.
If you are directly hugging the tower, it's not easy for the opponent to find a kill angle either.
Of course, this is only limited to the lane you are facing.
If the mid lane is pressured, the consequences naturally have to be paid by other teammates.
Then, which lane is most affected by the mid lane?
The answer was already decided.
“Now, we have to watch the jungle side.”
[LeBlanc - Level 2]
Due to the fact that one side unilaterally started playing safe, nothing has happened so far.
[LeBlanc - Level 3]
Yes, so far.
[⨷] [⨷] [⨷]
“Pings are being marked towards the blue side right now. Looks like LeBlanc and Lee Sin are going to go into the enemy's blue?”
“Yes, Baiga is in the timing of farming the lane, so it's a bit difficult to join! We'll have to see how it goes!”
-MDC starting
-Bibo doesn't seem to know?
-Mid is trapped and vision is all eaten ㅇㅇ
-Isn't it dangerous?
Hmm…
“Sister, isn’t that dangerous?”
“It is, but it’s Bibo.”
“Why Bibo?”
“…You know Bibo’s skills, right?”
“Of course. That wall-slamming, and also… ah, I don’t know the skill name.”
-ㅋㅋㅋ
-Jjam-min-ah...
-But people usually don't know the skill names, right? I don't know either
-N Geun-nim-ti?
-I'm a Platinum, why?
-Ok, you can not know
LeBlanc disappeared from the mid lane vision, and
Yoon-gi's Lee Sin came crashing into the enemy's blue like a lightning bolt.
The surprise was felt in the movements of Vendetta's Bibo, who was hitting the blue without knowing why.
A brief standoff continued, and soon Yoon-gi's sonic wave hit Bibo.
“Ah! The sonic wave hit!”
However, Yoon-gi was calm.
It was because of Bibo's skill.
Bibo's W skill blocks movement skills that enter his circle while the skill is active.
Therefore, if Lee Sin enters with a straightforward QQ, he will be blocked by Bibo.
Bibo's W duration is 2 seconds.
Lee Sin's Q second-hit time limit is 3 seconds.
In other words, Lee Sin has to force Bibo to use W within 1 second.
Of course, Yoon-gi was a player who had a solution to that.
‘Pretending to be a Q follow-up, ward hop.’
After hitting the sonic wave first, instead of going straight into the follow-up Q, he uses a forward ward hop to get rid of the opponent's escape skill, and then enters with a Q one tempo late.
It's a kind of fake combo used by players with a certain level of Lee Sin proficiency.
However, Vendetta reacted as if they had read this too.
They didn't use W on the first ward hop, calmly waited one more tempo, and used W when Lee Sin used his Q follow-up.
“Vendetta! It was a great play!”
“It might seem like nothing special to watch, but it was a scene with a lot of mind games! Vendetta has read Yoon-gi's moves!”
-Wow
-Bibo is so OP
-Such a OP champ, when will it get nerfed?
-Rly
In the end, when Lee Sin failed to get Bibo, LeBlanc, who had come a long way, also had to go back weakly.
“The reason for the Bibo pick comes alive here!!! Amazing Vendetta! He blocked Lee Sin and LeBlanc's entry like flowing water!”
‘He didn’t react by watching.’
Purely in the realm of prediction.
In other words, Vendetta believed that if it was Yoon-gi’s Lee Sin, he would naturally be able to play this much.
‘Of course, the situation still can't be said to be good…’
It looks like Bibo handled the opponent’s attempt well, but in the end, Bibo was chased out of his own jungle.
Moreover, since LeBlanc and Lee Sin appeared in the blue-side jungle as well, he was under pressure in the laning phase.
The only fortunate thing is that the CS gap between Baiga and LeBlanc has narrowed a little while LeBlanc was away for a while.
“Hmm, we praised Vendetta's Bibo, but it's not a good situation. They bought some time? That's about it?”
“That’s right. Anyway, in the nature of both teams' compositions, the one who has to roll is SY. It has minimized the damage for now, that's about it.”
“I’m really looking forward to how Baiga, who is silently farming in the mid lane right now, will perform later.”
“I agree.”
At that moment.
-First Blood!
-Enemy Eliminated!
The sudden announcement.
“Huh?”
Even the commentators were momentarily taken aback.
They couldn’t help it.
-?
-Eh?
-Wow
-As expected
What appeared on the portrait was none other than Black Dog's Aphelios.
SY's bot lane, the Longbow, and Guinea Pig duo had finally managed to make a play.
