Did The Captain Catch Up With The Coach Today [Esports] Chapter 50
byWei Xiao reminded Zhou Miao Miao and then rushed to the mid-lane, but he didn’t rush in. Instead, he crouched in the brush, waiting for Fei Yu.
He guessed that Fei Yu would gank mid, because Fei Yu’s habit was to gank mid and bottom, rarely ganking top, unlike WI’s Jungler Xing Guang, who liked to run to the top lane unless the top lane lost lane priority.
After being reminded by Wei Xiao, Zhou Miao Miao knew Fei Yu might be nearby, so he deliberately exposed a weakness while maintaining high vigilance.
The opposing MID probably saw Zhou Miao Miao expose a weakness because Fei Yu was nearby, and immediately went in without thinking!
Zhou Miao Miao kept his Flash, using his positioning to create distance. Almost as soon as he moved, Fei Yu sprang out of the brush and charged at him like a maniac.
Zhou Miao Miao decisively used Flash toward Wei Xiao’s location.
Fei Yu used Flash to follow up, just about to attack, when Wei Xiao, controlling his Fox God, used a control Flash, holding his crowd control and charging at Fei Yu, locking him down perfectly!
Fei Yu was startled by his sudden move and cursed, “Shit!” Even though he guessed Wei Xiao might be nearby, he never expected him to use Flash to control him, catching him completely off guard!
Zhou Miao Miao seized the opportunity for a counter-attack, and Wei Xiao followed up with basic attacks!
The match was still in the early game, and Fei Yu’s gold wasn’t enough to buy a cleanse item. He could only stand there and take the beating, watching helplessly as Wei Xiao secured the kill.
System Notification: Fox God, First Kill!
System Notification: Enemy Full Moon Wolf has been slain!
KPI’s MID saw their Jungler die and knew they couldn’t escape. They wanted to kill Zhou Miao Miao before dying, but although Zhou Miao Miao had used Flash, he still had a shield. He immediately used his third skill, “Bodyguard Barrier,” to block the opponent’s skill damage, saving his low HP. At the same time, Wei Xiao used a displacement skill to increase his damage, and two basic attacks sent the MID back to the fountain as well.
System Notification: Fox God, Double Kill!
System Notification: Enemy Cursed Maiden has been slain!
“Look, a double kill!” Wei Xiao was satisfied.
“66666!” Zhou Miao Miao gave Wei Xiao a shout-out while recalling, and then complimented himself, “Wasn’t my bait perfect?”
Wei Xiao: “Flawless!”
Zhou Miao Miao: “Welcome back anytime!”
Wei Xiao: “Hahahahaha!”
In fact, Wei Xiao’s Jungler strategy was similar to WI’s Xing Guang—prioritizing freeing up the Top Laner, then moving from top to bottom.
But he really wanted to kill Fei Yu. Moreover, a good Jungler wouldn’t be constrained by Jungler habits. As long as they could gain an advantage, they could gank however they wanted. After all, opportunity waits for no one.
Yue Xia: “Wei Xiao killed Fei Yu! FHM is about to take off now!”
Ri Xi: “Both Junglers are going all out after reaching level 3, but currently, it seems Wei Xiao’s awareness is superior!”
Yes, Wei Xiao’s ability to secure this double kill was due more to his superior awareness than his mechanics—he successfully predicted the opponent’s actions and made his move at the most opportune moment.
Fei Yu might not have lagged far behind him in mechanics, but his awareness relied entirely on the individual strength of KPI’s other Starters to compensate.
Therefore, Wei Xiao genuinely refused to accept that Fei Yu inherited the title of “World Server Rank 1 Jungler.”
Once the Marksman gained gold and items, his basic attack damage soared. Relying on his long-range advantage, he began a refreshing life of killing wherever he went.
First, he killed the opposing Top Laner, helping his own Top Laner push down the top turret. Then he went to the enemy jungle, sweeping up all the jungle monsters. After that, he teamed up with his Top Laner to dive and kill the opposing MID, push down the mid turret, freeing up the MID, and then went to the bottom lane to secure resources and buffs, killing anyone who dared to approach.
The kills piled up, the gold increased, and the output damage followed suit. After about 10 minutes, Wei Xiao barely needed to use skills, relying on basic attacks to slaughter KPI players.
The gold of FHM’s other players was also boosted by Wei Xiao. Team fights were like a tsunami; the group surged forward like a wave, instantly drowning all of KPI.
“Damn, how are we supposed to fight this?” KPI’s Top Laner Mi Lu’s mentality collapsed. “We can’t withstand any of this!”
“Fei Yu, hide in the brush and ambush him, take him out in one go!” KPI’s MID Hu Die couldn’t help but instruct. “We can’t team fight, we can only rely on Solo Kills!”
“I wish I could…” Fei Yu had a massive headache.
He had tried to gank Wei Xiao alone, but Wei Xiao seemed to know exactly where he was. Wei Xiao’s positioning always made him uncomfortable, specifically preventing him from finding a reliable angle to take him out in one burst.
Fei Yu didn’t dare to engage because his experience told him he would die miserably if he did.
If the gold gap hadn’t been so large, he might have thought about finding an opportunity to show off, but now, his only thought was not to lose too badly, or at least for his personal performance not to look too terrible.
But he couldn’t just roam the edges of the map and only take resources. So, in the latter half of the match, he managed to kill the isolated Qin Jin Yao and Zhou Miao Miao a few times, but the impact on the overall battle was negligible.
He was working, but he wasn’t doing the critical work. He virtually allowed FHM, led by Wei Xiao, to dominate the match, control the battlefield, and ultimately secure the victory.
Game one, FHM wins!
Then, in game two, KPI immediately banned the Fox God. Banning the Fox God inevitably meant letting an Assassin through.
In the first game, most viewers were optimistic about KPI, as they were last year’s runner-up team. But in the second game, no matter which Assassin was released, they couldn’t help but worry for KPI.
While the audience at the venue and in the live stream didn’t dare to make rash judgments, the forums had already decided the outcome.
KPI is done for. FHM is guaranteed to win, okay? FHM beat KPI when they were just formed and hadn’t even registered for the competition. It’s even less likely they’ll lose now.
Holy crap, before watching today’s match, I always thought KPI went easy on them that one time. After watching today’s match, maybe FHM was the one going easy!
Wei Xiao is truly broken. KPI used all five bans against him, yet he casually picked Fox God and still stomped KPI into the ground.
I always felt Fei Yu’s strength wasn’t enough for the World Server Rank 1 Jungler title, but I didn’t expect the gap between him and Wei Xiao to be this huge. Wei Xiao truly deserves to be the big shot with the massive lead in ranked points!
As a fan of Wen Shi Yu, I’m crying so loudly, who understands! Wei Xiao truly is the Jungler trained by Wen Shi Yu. He is the World Server Rank 1 Jungler after Wen Shi Yu retired!
Wei Xiao didn’t know that even before he officially claimed the Jungler position, people were already acknowledging his title.
The Jungler released by KPI was the Temporal Tracker, the hero most suitable for targeted attacks. Wei Xiao couldn’t help but laugh when he locked it in: “Fei Yu, are you ready to be targeted to death by me?”
In this game, if he didn’t kill Fei Yu ten times, he wouldn’t be doing justice to this released hero!
