"You mean bot lane?"
"No, I mean their mid lane."
"???"
Having inherited IMP's playstyle, how could he possibly play a Twitch Zilean setup like this without wandering toward the enemy mid lane? Luo Zhen directly pulled Meiko into a vision-block recall trick. Even if the enemy guessed what they were doing—
But did their mid laner dare back off?
After Vi died and respawned, Kanavi had only two choices left. One was to rely on experience to figure out where there were still jungle camps untouched by the chaos, then farm to catch up. The other was to completely lose it with Ning Wang and start GANKing like mad. Going by Kanavi's playstyle, he would most likely choose the former. And if he did, Knight in mid had to step up a little.
He did not need to push up much, but at the very least, he had to give his jungler a position he could support.
Wasn't that the opportunity?
For JDG, if they crippled EDG's mid-jungle, the whole team would fall apart on its own. Little did they know, the same was true for EDG against JDG.
With the speed boost from Zilean's ultimate, Twitch, while stealthed, slipped near mid in the blink of an eye.
And then—
"Watch your feet!"
Unstealth with W [Poison Barrel], auto attack, reposition, auto attack again, reposition again.
Knight clearly had not expected the enemy bot lane to arrive so quickly. Their bot support Missing had only called MIA moments ago, yet Twitch had already gotten behind him and started shooting him in the back. With no other option, he retreated along the upper river, tanked Twitch's detonation damage, then used Flash Over Wall straight into the jungle.
After this, he could no longer stay in mid.
