Chapter 65
The atmosphere in the UNG lounge was serious.
After losing two games in a row, we must win the next game, otherwise the spring season will be completely over.
Burst: "I can't play without helping in the bot lane."
upper frowned.
Burst: "You know how easy it is to collapse the bottom lane? Qu Xing puts pressure on you right from the start. If you collapse in the first few minutes, it will be very difficult to fight for all the resources in the bottom half afterwards."
upper: "..."
The coach said, "Well, you need to sacrifice some jungle resources and help. It's not like he can't win because of a mistake. It's mainly because Qu Xing is really difficult to beat."
Upper opened his mouth with a complicated expression. He looked at the coach, then at Burst, and said, "If I help, will it be okay?"
Everyone: “…”
It's a soul-searching question.
Upper's expression seemed to have aged several years. "If helping would be effective, I would definitely help. The problem is, after so long, even a four-on-two attack might not be enough to catch him, so how can I help? And that Jiang Lin, he'd rather die than do anything to make you uncomfortable."
“…”
Upper was silent for two seconds: "There's no way to force Qu Xing's advantage. The best way is to make his advantage 'ineffective'."
Burst: "Why is it ineffective?"
Upper said: "You take the AD clearing the lane, stay at the tower and eat the minions, don't give him a chance to trade blood. I give up the bottom lane."
Burst: “…”
Upper: "It's best to control all six Broodlings. You switch lanes before the Broodlings, and we'll aggressively attack the top half, taking down the enemy's top two towers before the 14-minute mark. If they continue to pressure you, we'll take map resources, and when they switch lanes to support, we'll make them lose minions and plating. The problem is, you have to trust me to completely suppress Blaze, because you might be frustrated for at least ten minutes, or even the entire time. And you have to ensure you don't lose in the late game, at least be able to keep up with the minimum damage."
Quan Ji didn't hesitate at all and slammed the table: "Damn it! It's okay if I lose alone!"
Upper smiled: "Okay."
The third game started, and the blue team UNG selected the lineup: Gnar, Viego, Viktor, Varus, Leona
The red team DL selected the lineup: Aatrox, Kindred, Ryze, Aphelios, Tahm Kench
Upper started the game by saying, "Set up vision and pay attention to Blaze's jungle route. Anvy will go to the blue buff in 1 minute and pretend to help open it."
Fan: "The other side opened with blue."
upper: "OK."
upper goes to the lower half.
He now wanted to suppress He Weichen's jungle and counter-jungle him, so he had to choose a faster way to clear the jungle. They both cleared from the bottom half upwards, normally clearing all the way up. The faster way was Speed 3, 15 seconds faster than normal. But he had to go even faster, counter-jungle as much as possible from He Weichen, and if possible, time it well to call Anvy over to attack him.
Upper chose to go to F6 after brushing the red buff, which was 40 seconds faster than speed 3, and directly invaded He Weichen's red zone.
But if he wanted to successfully counter-jungle and catch people, he had to keep all of his moves hidden. He asked Anvy to show up at the blue buff for this very reason, so that DL would think Anvy was helping him clear the jungle, and that he was clearing from top to bottom, thus hiding his clearing route.
Lan Feng: "How clever! Invading the jungle like this? Just give DL false information."
In two minutes and ten seconds, Upper successfully stole He Weichen's red buff and stone beetle.
When He Weichen came up, he found that the jungle area was gone.
He quickly realized that the blue buff message was fake and said, "Captain, Viego has invaded the jungle. I'm going to steal his blue buff."
Ling Yin immediately moved towards the river, putting pressure on UNG's vision.
upper saw it.
He did not choose to return to the city immediately, but instead took a quick look at the battle situation in the three directions.
The most important thing is the bottom lane.
It's true that Aphelios's positioning is tricky, always finding precise spots to consume players between bursts and maintaining perfect minion control. Logically, their Varus and Leona combination should have been a strong early-game force, but they only maintained a slight lead in lane control.
Faint, but it exists.
Thanks to Burst, I managed to survive. It's all I need.
Upper said: "Yina, don't give Ryze a chance to roam. Hold the bottom lane and don't be aggressive."
He took advantage of the terrain, accurately avoided sight and slipped to the bottom lane, heading straight for the river crab.
He knew he'd be discovered. Teams with Qu Xing were often incredibly perceptive. But there was no point in discovering him now. Yina, even at the risk of taking a beating, would use her skills to clear the minions, trapping Ling Yin's line. It would take time for him to get through.
The bottom lane soldiers were about to enter the tower, and coming over would get them stuck. No matter how powerful Qu Xing and Jiang Lin were, their hero characteristics determined that they couldn't immediately abandon the soldiers under the tower and run over to support.
Qu Xing used Zhuiming's Q to try to gain vision, but was cleverly dodged by Upper.
Lan Feng: "DL's bottom lane reacted quickly! Aphelios almost reached through the wall with his Q, but there was no way. The minion wave helped UNG invisibly."
Upper first secretly took the river Swift Crab, then used the acceleration effect of the river crab to slide into the depths of the lower half of the DL jungle area, and quickly took down He Weichen's Stone Beetle.
After controlling the river crabs in the lower half of the area and successfully stealing a second group of stone beetles, Upper was already ahead of He Weichen in terms of economy and experience. He did not want to fight any longer and immediately returned to the city.
Upper said: "Anvy controls the lane, hoards rage, and prepares to head towards the dragon pit. Report the location as soon as easy disappears."
Anvy: "Okay."
Upper didn't choose to go to the nest pit first. He calculated the time and estimated that He Weichen would be fighting F6 in his own home.
Yina in the middle lane was very tough, carrying Lingyin to clear the soldiers. At the moment when Lingyin was restrained, she controlled Viego and used the wall-penetrating effect of Ghost Step to sneak into the DL upper jungle area again.
He Weichen is indeed in F6.
Upper didn't hesitate. He charged up the Ruined King's Sword and accurately stunned He Weichen. Without a pause, he followed up with a basic attack and a Q skill combo, combined with punishment, and instantly reduced He Weichen to a low health.
He Weichen used Flash to pull away.
upper grabbed He Weichen F6 on the spot.
"Anvy just kills the bugs."
He Weichen was at low health and couldn't fight for the nest worm. Upper moved towards the nest worm pit.
Yina, who had been controlling Lingyin's minion wave, finally learned her lesson, being killed by Lingyin and giving away first blood. But the minion wave was still there, and Lingyin needed time to clear it, and it would also take time for the bottom lane to catch up and support. Le Anyi tried to interfere, but Anvy's rage was so well controlled that it was about to reach a maximum, and Viego was almost at full health. Compared to the two, he seemed outmatched.
Upper controlled two nest worms and was about to control the third one, when DL finally arrived in the middle and lower levels.
Le Anyi then rushed forward with his sword in hand, using his ultimate to try and grab the insect and divide the battlefield. Qu Xing Aphelios switched to the Blade of the Blade and used his Q from a long distance to try and grab the insect.
upper: "Stop it, stop it."
He held the punishment tightly.
Leona's Zenith Blade accurately targeted the ulted Aatrox, sending the center of the Solar Flare crashing near the point where Ryze's portal had landed. Varus's Chains of Corruption followed closely behind, their spreading vines imprisoning both the newly landed Ryze and Tahm Kench as he attempted to approach. Viktor also arrived in time, laying a gravity field beneath the DL players' feet.
Perfect backhand control chain.
In the chaos, Upper steadily punished the third nest worm.
"withdraw."
After taking down three Broodlings, UNG gained the advantage in pushing lanes. Utilizing this advantage, UNG began to frantically invade the DL jungle to establish vision. Especially in the upper half of the lane, He Weichen Kindred's movements were almost completely under their control.
Upper began to constantly seize the opportunities when He Weichen was jungle farming to harass and counter-jungle, further widening the level and economic gap between himself and Kindred.
The jungle fell. The Broodlings were controlled. DL had a hard time defending the tower.
At nine minutes, the second wave of Broodlings spawned, and this time DL took position first. However, UNG had a huge vision advantage, and Viego was far ahead in terms of level and equipment, allowing Upper to control both Broodlings.
In the 14th minute, Upper used the time difference to control the pioneer.
At 20 minutes, the Bloodthirsty Ertahan spawned in the lower river. Upper exploited the lack of vision to split the DL formation and take down the Bloodthirsty Ertahan. Immediately afterwards, five UNG players, donning their Resurrection Armor, charged forward recklessly, eliminating several DL players. Upper, still alive, joined Anvy in controlling the Baron.
In the 24th minute, Upper took the Dragon Soul.
As a jungler highly skilled at initiating teamfights, he managed to remain completely calm and avoid a fight with DL's upper. He avoided engaging in combat whenever possible, even avoiding confrontation whenever possible. He swept away every resource he could. When he reached high ground and found himself unable to fight, he immediately retreated and returned to continue hauling resources.
In the end, UNG relied on the Ancient Dragon Buff to finally attack all the way to DL's doorstep and won the third game.
Upper took off his headphones and smiled at Anvy, who was looking at him: "Good luck next time."

The author has something to say: In this game, Upper played so well that I wrote an episode with him as the protagonist. But the protagonists are still our Xingxing and Xiaoyin~
