[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 469
OLZ vs SY (11)I think I know a fair amount about Rainbow.
Of course, I'm not as good as her teammates, but even so, I think I know her pretty well.
Conversely, Rainbow probably knows a fair amount about me as well.
Maybe even more than our teammates.
So, how does Rainbow feel about the current situation?
So far, our team has intentionally used the jungler's presence in many situations.
The jungler isn't visible, and the OLZ laner gives a somewhat awkward trade angle?
Let's play it safe since the jungler is nearby.
Using the loophole of that thought, OLZ's laners have been taking small advantages, but as that happened repeatedly, the opponent also stopped falling for it.
But what does it matter if they don't fall for it?
That alone allows us to gain an advantage.
Mind game within a mind game.
What choice will Rainbow make there?
"She's coming."
Rainbow, perhaps reading Getback's movements as a bluff, came forward to catch Getback.
The reason for that might also be that Getback's movements were somewhat awkward.
Actually, the Orianna-Yone setup is supposed to be Orianna constantly applying pressure while Yone takes advantage.
However, even in this setup, Rainbow was ready to catch Orianna if she showed any opening.
[“Yone is coming in!”]
Usually, when Yone trades, it's common to use e first and then approach, but Rainbow was different.
First, she approached with a q 2nd charge, and then she came in, preparing to dodge Orianna's skills with the e skill.
It means they definitely secured the kill angle.
And that meant one more thing.
"Their Sejuani is here too."
There is a basis for a professional's play.
Especially, if it's a player like Rainbow, it can't be any other way.
But Sejuani's presence was not visible to our team's vision.
Then, the position where our team's vision is not captured is…….
[❔] [❔] [❔]
"Seju here."
[“Okay.”]
Both mid laners know that both teams' junglers are present.
Despite that, not showing up until this moment meant that Sejuani was thinking of completely devouring us rather than just taking a reasonable advantage.
"When using skills on Yone, don't use w, just use q. She'll dodge with e anyway."
[“Okay.”]
When Orianna threw a q, Yone used the e skill to dodge Orianna's skill as expected.
And at that very moment.
As if they had been waiting, Sejuani came out of the bush simultaneously, resulting in a 2:2 situation.
But there was no need to be surprised.
This situation was planned, and it was also prepared beforehand.
"Yone first."
[“Got it.”]
Unless it was unexpected.
There's no need to be flustered if the situation is already anticipated.
It was the same now.
We knew Sejuani was waiting, and we also knew that Yone would save e to dodge skills.
We had anticipated everything, so from now on, the scenario of the battle was practically in our hands.
"Push forward."
[“Uh, uh-huh.”]
It could be a somewhat reckless order with Sejuani joining in, but that's what was needed now.
And that wasn't the only thing I believed in.
[“I'm almost there.”]
Our teammate, Pyke, was quickly joining from the top side to mid.
The enemy Varus also didn't appear on the map, so he must be joining, but he couldn't match Pyke's joining speed.
Orianna, dodging Sejuani who was flanking, instead stuck to Yone.
I also caught Yone from behind, eliminating Yone's escape route with e.
"Yone has to dodge this q once. If it's 2 stacks, you can get out."
[“I'll try.”]
Orianna used the saved w and successfully dodged Yone's q once with movement speed.
As Yone came back, I, who was waiting in that spot, immediately poured skills on Yone.
The isolation bonus added, and Yone's health was instantly reduced, and Sejuani hurriedly used skills on me to protect Yone.
Yone seemed to barely get away, but we still had one more move left.
[“I'm here.”]
Our teammate, Pyke, arrived and charged his q skill.
Sejuani blocked the way to prevent Yone from being pulled.
However, Sejuani was making one mistake.
"Target Seju."
[“Yes.”]
The target wasn't Yone, who had a Flash from the beginning, but Sejuani, who didn't have Flash.
Thwack!
Sejuani was pulled, and Pyke's e skill followed in combination.
When the isolation damage from Kha'Zix and Orianna's damage were added, Sejuani, who had lost her aftershocks, couldn't endure it any longer.
-An enemy has been slain!
Sejuani fell.
[“Nice!”]
[“Good job.”]
Yone barely survived, but Sejuani died in a row, recording 2 deaths.
Even though Yone survived, she couldn't hold on in mid in the current situation where her health was not managed.
If our 3 teammates decided to, they could immediately dive mid.
It seemed that the enemy support, Varus, was joining from the bottom, but as Pyke disappeared from vision and put pressure, Varus had to go around to avoid Pyke.
The mid lane is burning down as it is.
In the end, while Yone went home and returned with a teleport, we were able to mine 1 bar of the mid turret and deal a large loss by taking the minions as well.
"Now, let's regroup."
The balance of the game was greatly broken.
The jungle was most severely broken among them, and the mid lane was most affected by that.
As I said earlier, the early setup of Orianna-Yone is a situation where Yone is quite disadvantaged.
She has to get Orianna's permission for the entire time she's eating cs, and if she makes a mistake, she might not be able to withstand the pressure on her health and be forced to return.
Of course, that's only the early setup, and it's different when they both get items and level up.
Just like now.
[Yone - Level 6]
After level 6, even if Orianna is ahead in the lane matchup, she can't be careless.
Because if she makes a mistake in one trade, she can even be caught in a kill angle.
But…….
Even in a situation where Rainbow's lane was being pressured, she couldn't make any plays.
If it were the usual Rainbow, it might be different, but now, the mid lane vision is all taken, and our composition was Pyke-Kha'Zix.
It was because they could be counter-attacked and even dived if they tried to seize the opportunity clumsily.
The balance between mid laners.
And, above all, because the balance between the junglers was greatly broken.
Of course, just because Rainbow was being pressured, we didn't need to target Rainbow forcibly.
It was enough to gradually take the advantages we could take rather than providing a stepping stone for a comeback.
We had already seized the mid vision, and all that was left was to easily take the scuttle crab first.
-Blue team has slain the Scuttle Crab!
It went in our team's favor to the point that it was almost one-sided.
But the opponent was SY.
They weren't a team that would just take the hits.
The first to raise the tempo was SY's bottom lane.
Since it was a lane swap situation, both teams' top laners were under pressure.
However, the pressure our top lane received was relatively greater than the pressure our bottom lane put on the enemy top lane.
Even though we had already inflicted a large loss by succeeding in a dive early on.
SY quickly mined the bottom turret with a strong bottom lane force and also took the dragon.
-Red team has slain the Infernal Dragon!
And after the first recall, they naturally moved to the top and started to actively utilize their advantages.
To be precise, that's what they were going to do.
If we had just taken the hits.
"Let's go with this."
The enemy bottom lane is re-swapping with the top and trying to move the power of the strong bottom lane to the top.
However, our team didn't intend to just let it be.
Originally, our bottom lane should also move to the bottom lane to match the enemy's tempo and mine the enemy's turret shields.
But instead, we went to the top and stood in the same lane as the enemy bottom lane.
Now, to put a tackle on the enemy's tempo.
"Let's do this."
When we openly showed our intention to fight, SY also called their jungler and mid laner, as if they wouldn't avoid this fight.
Soon, the scale of the fight grew large enough that both teams' top laners also joined with teleports.
It was a fight triggered just in the lane, with no objectives, but neither we nor SY had any intention of backing down.
"They're coming."
Starting with the enemy's Ashe ultimate, Rammus's ultimate was cast over it.
We were initiated upon.
[“Slowly, while drawing them in.”]
But there was no need to panic.
Slowly, calmly.
We just had to put K'Sante in front and back away to respond.
After all, an opportunity always comes.
While K'Sante and Sejuani were rubbing against each other and the front line fight was fierce, the enemy Yone caught an entry angle and came in.
And I didn't intend to miss that opportunity.
"Ori ult on me."
[“Applied.”]
I immediately plunged into the middle of the enemy formation with my ultimate skill - Flash, and Orianna's ultimate was unleashed.
[“4-man ultimate!”]
And the result that followed was a team fight victory.
It was a 5:1 trade.
[“Nice─!”]
[“That's it!”]
Winning the team fight, which determined the direction of this game, it was an unstoppable flow from that point on.
Scuttle Crab, Dragon, Herald, Mid Tier 1.
And from the time we then ate the Baron, there was no opponent who could stop our advance.
How much did we prepare for this moment?
How much effort did we have to put in for this moment?
[Victory]
And finally, we were able to break down the massive barrier that was SY.
