Chapter 57 Limitless Vision, Reverse Invasion! [Please read on, please vote!]
The second round of moving people started and ended quickly for both sides.
T1 focused on champions with strong early-game fighting ability in the bot lane, while DRX removed champions with strong protective abilities like Lulu.
After the move was completed, T1, as the fourth pick on the red team, used a steal instead of a move to help Lee Sang-ho get a Rakan, leaving the counter pick for Lee Doo-hwan.
Looking at T1's first four picks, DRX is also in a dilemma.
If Devonte were to play a carry role, the support would definitely have to focus most of their energy on the bot lane, and might not be able to take care of the jungler.
So if there's a significant gap between your jungler and the enemy jungler, your jungle might get completely destroyed!
If the jungle is in disarray, the rhythm will be completely disrupted, and the team will likely be led by the nose by the opponent.
However, if you pick a bottom lane duo that performs well in the early to mid-game and fails to achieve the desired effect, you simply won't be able to win later on.
After some discussion, DRX decided to focus on the early to mid-game, so they locked in Lucian and Braum.
"It looks like DRX is going to put all their energy into the early and mid-game!" Upon seeing DRX's final lineup, Roaring Emperor couldn't help but sigh.
"I wonder what champion T1 will give Sun in this last counter-pick!"
"If I feel like I can't do it, I'll go with Lee Sin."
"But with Lee Sin, it's easy for him to go in with DRX's lineup, but it might be difficult for him to get out."
The two commentators were exchanging guesses and exchanging glances when the hero on the fifth floor of T1 was revealed on the big screen.
A new moon is rising!
……
"The bright moon?"
"Locked up!!!"
Upon seeing this hero, the Roaring Emperor's eyes suddenly lit up.
"In the match the day before yesterday, Hanwha's jungler Haru was also selected, but unfortunately, he didn't perform very well in that match."
We look forward to Sun's performance with Diana, hoping he can bring us a different kind of performance.
With Diana locked in, both sides began exchanging their respective heroes with the users.
However, at this point, the situation changed again!
"Wait a minute!"
Seeing Rambo being handed over to Kim Chang-dong, the Roaring Emperor's voice suddenly rose.
"Is T1 going to play Rumble top and Ornn mid this game?!"
"The deadline is fast approaching, aren't you planning to replace your T1 mid-range/top laner yet?"
"Judging from the camera, Sun seems to have said something to Faker, and they're both laughing!" Lee Eun-bin chimed in. "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Ornn in the mid lane!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ornn locked onto the mid lane!
(Lee Sang-hyeok started playing Ornn mid back then!)
……
The sudden change left not only the commentators stunned, but also those at the scene and in the live broadcast room.
[Dude, letting a guy like Guapi play Ornn as a utility champion, what the hell is the coach thinking...? What? The jungler is Doo-hwan, then it's okay!]
Looking across the entire League of Legends scene, only my brother Douhuan gets this kind of treatment!
Indeed, apart from my brother Huan, no one else deserves to be used as a tool by Guapi.
[Damn it, my brother Huan just got back and he's already being used as a donkey by the production team?]
Lee Sang-hyeok stated, "I've been leading this team single-handedly for so many years, and now that someone has finally returned, shouldn't I be allowed to enjoy myself?"
……
With Ornn moving to the mid lane instead of the top lane, the final team compositions for both sides were revealed to the public.
T1's top laner is Rumble, jungler is Diana, mid laner is Ornn, and bot lane consists of Aphelios and Rakan.
DRX's top laner is Sett, jungler is Jarvan IV, mid laner is Ryze, and bot laner is Lucian and Braum.
Before leaving, CvMax, the coach of DRX, also gave some important reminders.
"No matter what, we absolutely must invade the jungle this game and force Diana to the top lane!"
After all, if we ignore the players and only look at the champions, it's very difficult for Jarvan IV to beat Diana.
If a gap appears in jungle clearing, it might lead to a situation similar to what other teams experience when facing T1, where their own jungler hasn't even finished clearing the jungle yet, and Diana is already putting pressure on the other lanes.
Therefore, they directly pushed Diana to the top lane, so that she could only target Sett or the mid lane.
At the same time, sending Diana to the top lane will allow the two bot laners to play more aggressively without any worries, and they can look for opportunities to tower dive with Jarvan IV!
"I know."
Daft responded to the reminder.
Once the game started, DRX didn't hesitate at all. Following their coach's instructions before leaving, they immediately grouped up and invaded the enemy base.
"As expected, with Braum and Lucian on the team, DRX will definitely try to invade the jungle!" Lee Eunbin couldn't help but say after seeing DRX's actions.
"The main reason is that DRX's lineup needs to end the game in the mid-game, so they definitely need to make the bot lane play more comfortably in the early game," Roaring Emperor added.
"However, T1 seems to have realized this, so Sun's Diana didn't go to the lower jungle."
But... wait a minute!!!
As he spoke, the Roaring Emperor exclaimed again, "Sun didn't go to the top lane; it looks like he's going to invade DRX's jungle!"
On the big screen, Diana, after arriving in the mid lane, carefully moved into the DRX jungle little by little, clinging to the river wall.
To make the experience more intuitive for the viewers, the director even switched to the DRX's perspective.
In the vision of DRX's mid-lane turret, there was no trace of Diana. By the time the director switched the view back, Lee Doo-hwan's Diana had already arrived in the bush near DRX's six raptors.
Seemingly sensing the camera on him, Lee Doo-hwan appropriately displayed a logo that belonged to the former SKT team.
Seeing this, the Roaring Emperor sighed from the bottom of his heart.
"Sun perfectly bypassed the turret's vision, avoiding exposing himself to the opponent's view."
Furthermore, since DRX did not place any wards near F6, they had no idea where Sun Diana was at this moment!
I have a feeling something's going to happen in the bot lane later!
Not only did the Roaring Emperor have a premonition, but DRX coach CvMax, who had already returned to the locker room and was watching the game, also felt the same way.
Why did they aggressively invade the jungle and force Diana to the top lane?
This is to allow Lucian to play more aggressively, severely suppress Aphelios's development, and accelerate Lucian's item completion.
However, Diana has been driven away, but she hasn't reached the top half of the map; she's still in the bottom half. The two sides have only exchanged some jungle monsters in their respective bottom halves.
All of this was unknown to DRX, and in their minds, Diana had already moved to the top lane.
Therefore, given this preconceived notion, the two players in the bottom lane will definitely play very aggressively.
So when Diana finishes clearing her own bottom half of the map and comes out...
CvMax didn't dare to think any further.
