LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

7 minutes 20 seconds.

Su Mo returned with supplies, now carrying a Serrated Dagger and a pair of Bright Boots.

At this point in time, this was a devastating blow to a Gnar who only had Cloth Armor Boots and a Doran's Shield.

Su Mo controlled Riven back to the lane, but instead of pushing the lane, he firmly blocked the minion wave at the river entrance.

Zeus respawned and teleported back to lane, but seeing the minion wave completely controlled, his heart sank.

“I can’t go.” Zeus’s voice was hoarse in the voice chat. “The line is blocked. I might die if I go there.”

Oner was fighting the Krugs at the time, and upon hearing this, he said, "I'll help you clear the wave and push the minion wave in."

"Be careful, he can unleash a powerful burst of energy."

Oner carefully maneuvered Fioga as he cautiously peeked out from the triangular bushes.

When Su Mo saw Foygo show his face, instead of retreating, he used his E skill [Charge Forward] to charge forward!
"Want to untie the knot? Have you asked the sword in my hand first?"

W [Soul-Suppressing Roar]!
Although Oner reacted quickly and used W to try to stun Riven, Su Mo started with W to stun both of them, and then immediately used a lightning-fast QA combo to hit Gnar.

Zeus was terrified and used his E skill to jump away.

Seeing this, Oner didn't dare to linger in the fight, so he could only symbolically throw out a Q before slinking away.

Instead of solving the puzzle, they were hit and their status was ruined.

"This Riven is too domineering!" Guan Zeyuan exclaimed. "She's not afraid at all in a 1v2 situation, she's completely suppressing Zeus so much that he doesn't dare to farm minions!"

8 minutes exactly.

The first Rift Herald has spawned.

This is an extremely awkward time for T1.

Zeus in the top lane was only level 5, while Su Mo's Riven had already reached level 8.

A difference of nearly 3 levels!
"We can't let them take the Rift Herald." Faker switched screens to look at the top lane. "If we let them take it, they'll use the Rift Herald to take down the top tower, and Riven will be able to roam the whole map. No one will be able to stop her then."

"Here you go! Gumayusi, move up!"

T1 assembled their entire team, attempting to capitalize on their numerical advantage and lane control in the bottom lane to initiate this team fight.

EDG here.

“They want to fight.” Jiejie marked the T1 team members who were heading towards the river.

Su Mo was clearing the last few minions in the top lane and had reached level 9.

"Let them come." Su Mo's voice was cold. "Jiejie, you take the lead and force them in. Viper, provide vision."

Meiko's Lenata activated a scanner, clearing the view of the river bushes.

8 minutes 30 seconds.

The two sides are locked in a standoff in the river.

Faker's Akali hid in the bush behind the red buff, looking for an opportunity to engage.

Oner's Fryego is hovering on the front.

Zeus's Gnar has 90% rage under control and is about to grow.

“Zeus’s rage is great! T1 has a chance this time!” Miller analyzed. “As long as Gnar can transform and slam into the wall, and Akali enters the fray, even if Riven gets fed, she won’t be able to withstand the chain of crowd control!”

Just then, Jiejie's Sejuani used her Q skill to jump over the wall, pretending to initiate a team fight, but actually baited out Keria's Karma's RE shield.

The moment the shield disappeared.

Su Mo moved.

Instead of entering from the front, he used a blind spot to his advantage – he used his Q skill to vault over the wall above the dragon pit from the T1 top lane tri-bush!
"Riven has fallen from the sky!!"

Su Mo landed right next to Gumayusi Varus and Karma!

"I'm behind you," Su Mo whispered in the voice chat.

Gumayusi reacted extremely quickly, using his ultimate (R) [Chains of Corruption] to try and immobilize Riven.

But Su Mo had anticipated this.

Using E skill to shield and slide sideways, followed by Q1 for displacement, he narrowly dodged Varus's R.

Then he used W [Soul-Suppressing Roar]!
"drink!"

Golden runic energy erupted!
Gumayusi and Keria were both knocked unconscious on the spot!
R [Exiled Edge] activated!
The broken sword was reforged, and its golden light surged!
Basic attack! Q2! Basic attack!

Riven, equipped with a serrated dagger and Caulfield's warhammer, has an unbelievably high burst damage.

Gumayusi didn't even get a basic attack off before his health bar vanished instantly.

"Protect the AD!" Faker shouted, and Akali used her E skill on Riven to fly over and provide support.

Zeus's Gnar also grew larger, and he used E to jump over and prepare to R to slam the wall.

Despite being surrounded from all sides, Su Mo remained completely calm.

Q3 [The Dance of Broken Wings]!
Instead of smashing the low-health Varus, he turned around and smashed backward!
This smash knocked away Akali, who was flying over, and Gnar, who jumped over!
"One hit, three kills!! What kind of reaction speed is that?!" the doll screamed, clutching its head.

Taking advantage of the knockback, Su Mo countered with a basic attack to finish off the low-health Varus.

Immediately afterwards, R2 [Swift Slash] was unleashed!
Three streaks of green sword energy swept across the battlefield, hitting Akali, Gnar, and Karma.

Explosive damage!

Viper's Ashe unleashed a barrage of arrows, while Scout's Sylas stole Gnar's ultimate and entered the fray, slamming Zeus and Oner against the wall.

It was a massacre.

Su Mo moved through the crowd like a dancer on a battlefield.

When Conqueror stacks are full, every basic attack heals you.

Zeus fell.

Keria collapsed.

Faker barely escaped with his Twilight Shroud and Flash.

Triple Kill!

Su Mo gets a triple kill!

"Invincible!! This is Mozi's Riven!!" Guan Zeyuan was already incoherent. "One person cut through the backline, instantly killed the AD, controlled three people, and got a triple kill! T1's team fight was destroyed by one person!!"

EDG secured a 4-for-0 exchange and took the Rift Herald.

After this wave of attacks, T1's morale completely collapsed.

9 minutes 20 seconds.

Su Mo returned home and immediately took out his first completed piece of equipment—[Star Eclipse].

Plus a Tiamat.

This build means extreme burst damage and wave clear ability.

"This damage... Zeus would get pregnant just by looking at it." Remember shook his head.

Back online, Su Mo immediately disconnected.

Zeus's Gnar huddled in the bushes behind the second tower, too afraid to even return to the first tower.

Jiejie released the Rift Herald.

"boom!"

The previous tower has been breached.

Su Mo did not stop, and continued to charge at the second tower with the vanguard.

Zeus looked at Riven in despair and tried to last-hit a minion with a boomerang.

Su Mo immediately used his E skill [Charge Forward] and charged in despite the tower damage!

Q1! W! Basic Attack!

The Star Eclipse Shield is triggered, and Tiamat's AOE attack explodes.

Zeus didn't even have time to unleash his full rage before being tower-dived and killed under the second tower.

"Another kill!! This is like slaughtering pigs!" Miller shouted. "Zeus's mentality has collapsed! This isn't a final, it's clearly a game against bots!"

11 minutes 30 seconds.

Su Mo pushed down the second tower on the top lane and plunged into T1's jungle.

At this moment, Oner's jungle is Su Mo's backyard.

Oner's Fryego had just refreshed his red buff, and Su Mo started attacking him right in front of him.

Oner dared not speak out in anger and could only watch from the sidelines.

"You eat, you eat, I'm not hungry." Oner retreated with tears in his eyes.

Scout chuckled in the voice chat, "Brother Mo, can you save an F6 for me?"

"Come and get them yourself." Su Mo casually killed the big bird, leaving a few smaller ones behind.

At this moment, the voice communication inside T1 was completely silent.

Faker took a deep breath as he watched Riven on the top lane finish the game in just over 10 minutes.

"We can't let him lead like this. If he continues, the highlands will be gone."

“Let’s gank him. I have my ultimate.” Faker said, “Oner, Keria, let’s go together.”

T1 assembled four players (except for the AD carry who was clearing the wave in the bottom lane) to prepare to gank this top lane demon king.

12 minutes 45 seconds.

Su Mo is cutting off the minion wave in front of the T1 high ground tower.

That's right, 12 minutes, in front of the high ground tower.

Extremely arrogant.

Suddenly, danger lurked all around.

Faker's Akali charged out from the high ground.

Oner Fóyègo and Zeus's resurrected Nar flank from the side.

Keria activates RE group acceleration.

"Four against one! T1 is desperate!" Guan Zeyuan shouted, "Mozi didn't have his ultimate this time! He used it during the tower dive! Can he escape?"

Su Mo looked at the enemies surging in from all directions, his eyes remained unmoved, and instead, the corners of his mouth turned up.

"finally come."

Instead of retreating, he charged straight towards the wall of the jungle golem.

Q1! Q2! Q3!

Use the third Q segment to bypass the Great Firewall!

Not only did he dodge Faker's first ultimate, he also jumped directly into the Krug pit.

The T1 team caught up with them.

Su Mo used the bushes to block the view.

Just as Oner Foyego peered into the bushes.

W [Soul-Suppressing Roar]!
Fouguere and Nar, who followed them in, were stunned!
Basic attack! Tiamat! Q1!

A smooth burst of damage, even without an ultimate skill, his level advantage and superior equipment make his damage output terrifying.

Oner's health dropped to half instantly.

Zeus Gnar grows larger, and W tries to knock Riven unconscious.

Su Mo used his E skill to pull his shield to the side, dodging the crowd control, and then continued to attack Oner.

Faker's Akali uses her second ultimate (R) to fly in and finish off the enemy.

But Su Mo relied on the shield and lifesteal of [Eclipse] to withstand Akali's damage, then countered with an AQ combo to kill Oner!

"One killed! Still in progress!"

Although Su Mo was eventually killed by Faker's Akali, his 1v4 play, which resulted in one kill, delayed the game for a full minute.

In that minute, the other four members of EDG pushed down T1's mid and bottom lane towers and secured the dragon.

"A huge win!!" Remember shouted, "Brother Mozi traded his life for three towers and a dragon! T1 made a terrible mistake by ganking like that!"

14 minutes.

Su Mo revived and obtained the remaining pieces of the [Black Cutter].

His record at this point was 6-1-0.

Last hit: 160.

等级：12级。    而对位的Zeus：0-4-0，补刀85刀，等级9级。

A level difference of 3, a difference of two and a half pieces of equipment.

"This game is over," PDD declared in his livestream. "Now, if Riven enters the fray, no one can withstand her for more than two seconds. T1's lineup is too squishy; they simply can't contain her."

15 minutes exactly.

The second Rift Herald has spawned.

This time, T1 didn't even have the courage to glance at it.

EDG secured the second vanguard without firing a shot.

Su Mo said calmly in the voice chat, "Let's gather. Send the vanguard to the middle lane and push it all in one go."

"So soon?" Jiejie asked with a smile.

"Let's get off work early and go to the victory celebration party." Su Mo controlled Riven, aiming his sword at the mid lane.

There, T1's defenses were as fragile as paper.

The broken sword, however, was already itching for more.

16 minutes 15 seconds.

Although Su Mo shouted "one wave," T1 is, after all, a three-time champion team, and Faker is still on the field. Their resilience is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Jiejie released the Rift Herald in the mid lane.

A massive void creature crashed into T1's mid-lane second tower.

Su Mo, controlling Riven, took advantage of her equipment and used her E [Charge Forward] to push to the front, wanting to coordinate with the Vanguard to demolish the enemy base.

Just then, Faker, who had been holding back, made his move.

"Chance!"

Faker's Akali used her E skill [Falcon Dance] to apply the Twilight Shroud from behind the tower, and then used her ultimate [My Flowing Secret Technique! Inner and Outer Kill] to cross the minion wave, targeting Viper in the backline!

Meanwhile, Zeus's Gnar controlled his rage perfectly, growing larger under the second tower!

Flash R!

Zeus risked his professional career honor in this move. He anticipated Su Mo's move to Q in and stun her, and immediately flashed and used his ultimate to slam Riven into the ruins of the mid-lane second tower!

"He's fainted! Zeus has fainted, Brother Mozi!!" Guan Zeyuan exclaimed.

Almost simultaneously, Keria's Karma used her RE to accelerate the enemy team, and Oner's Fryegwark used his W to flash and follow up with the control chain.

T1's entire team focused their fire on Riven!

No matter how good Su Mo's equipment was, his health bar was instantly depleted when he was subjected to a series of crowd control effects and took damage from the turret.

"Save me!" Su Mo shouted.

Meiko's Rena gave Riven a timely rescue with her W, but Gumayusi's Varus charged up an arrow, detonating the withered quiver and piercing through Riven's body.

The gray resurrection bar lit up.

However, during the resurrection period, the T1 players did not scatter, but instead guarded the corpse!

Faker's Akali used her second R to turn around and precisely pressured Riven to secure the kill!

End!

A huge reward of 1000 yuan!
"He's dead! Mozi gave away a 1000 RMB kill! And it went to Faker!" Miller's heart tightened. "EDG was a bit too hasty this time! Zeus's ultimate move was crucial!"

After killing Riven, T1's morale soared, and they launched a counterattack.

Although Viper and Scout did their best to deal damage and take down Fryego who entered the fray, EDG's formation had already been broken up, and they could only retreat in defeat.

1 for 2.

T1 held onto the mid-lane second tower, and Faker secured the crucial bounty, immediately buying Zhonya's Hourglass and Sorcerer's Shoes upon returning to base.

"It's not over yet," Faker said in a deep voice, his eyes burning with renewed fire. "We still have a chance. Riven doesn't have Flash anymore, we'll target her in the next team fight."

18 minutes.

The situation reached a brief stalemate.

Having secured the bounty, Faker began to display his true demonic nature. In a split push on the side lane, he utilized Akali's high mobility to manage and restrain Riven, who was equipped with a full build.

Su Mo tried to force a kill several times, but Faker avoided it using smoke grenades and Zhonya's Hourglass. Instead, Su Mo lost a lot of health to the turret.

"This old Li guy's got some skills," Su Mo narrowed his eyes. "Play it safe, don't give him any chances. Wait for Xiao Long."

21 minutes.

The third dragon spawned, which also puts EDG one dragon away from winning.

The Water Dragon Soul is extremely beneficial for Riven, as the high amount of health regeneration makes her an invincible warrior.

T1 clearly knows this too.

“We can’t let this dragon go. If we do, we’ll really lose,” Oner said.

The two sides deployed their forces along the river.

This time, T1 learned from their mistakes, and Gumayusi's Varus positioned himself at a great distance, using his Q skill to poke.

Faker's Akali disappeared into the shadows on the flank.

"Watch out for Akali," Scout warned.

Jiejie's Sejuani attempted to initiate a team fight, unleashing her ultimate at Karma, but Keria's shield and speed boost allowed her to dodge it.

During the tug-of-war, Gumayusi shot Meiko with an arrow, reducing his health by half.

"Open! Zeus!"

Faker gave the order.

Zeus's Gnar used his E skill to jump over minions, grow larger in mid-air, and then flashed and used his W to stun the front-line Sejuani and Sylas!

Riven wasn't photographed!
Su Mo reacted extremely quickly, using his E skill to sidestep and dodge the crowd control.

But just as he was about to enter the fray and cut into the backline, Faker's Akali suddenly appeared from behind!
A single REQA combo deals extremely high damage!
Su Mo relied on the [Star Eclipse] shield and [Dance of Death] damage reduction to withstand the damage, and then used W to stun Akali.

Two players clash in the imperial city!

Max out the controls!

Riven's lightning-fast QA, Akali's Flying Thunder God Technique!
In the end, Su Mo used his equipment advantage to severely damage Faker, but Faker used his invulnerability to avoid Su Mo's R2 Wind Slash!
On the main battlefield, Viper's Ashe was attacked by Fryegret. Although she was protected by Lenata, she was still badly beaten and sent back to base.

T1 seized the opportunity to take the dragon, disrupting EDG's winning streak.

The two sides traded 2 for 2. Although Su Mo didn't die, he was left with low health and forced to return to the city.

"They're really holding on tight!" Ji De wiped his sweat. "T1's resilience is terrifying! They've pulled the game back from the brink of defeat! Faker's Akali has completely shut down Mozi's engage!"

The economic gap has been narrowed to 3000 yuan.

For the team fight 20 minutes from now, this is no longer an insurmountable gap.

23 minutes.

T1 began using their vision advantage to pressure Baron Nashor.

Of course, they didn't dare to really fight; they just wanted to lure EDG's players over and use Akali and Gnar's entry to engage in team fights.

"Go pick it up." Su Mo went home and upgraded his [Resurrection Armor].

This was the most crucial piece of equipment for him in this game.

"I have a resurrection item. I'll sacrifice my first life this time. You guys follow up," Su Mo commanded in the voice chat.

EDG's five players headed to the Dragon Pit.

The river channel was completely dark.

Meiko cautiously probed the grass.

suddenly!

A giant boomerang flew out of the bushes!
Zeus's Gnar is at full rage, he immediately uses his E to jump out and uses his R [Gnar!]

Zeus was very well hidden this time, and he managed to capture Meiko and Jiejie in one shot!

"We got there! Meiko got wiped out in a second!"

T1 instantly focused fire and killed Lena.

5 against 4!

EDG is in danger!
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Jiejie shouted.

But T1 went berserk, and Oner's Fryego picked up Lenata's soul and immediately used Flash Q to lock her down.

Just when EDG was about to collapse.

At F6 on the flank, a golden figure leaped over the wall!

Su Mo didn't stand with his teammates; he kept circling around!
At this moment, all five members of T1 were chasing the main force of EDG, and Varus and Karma in the back row were exposed.

"You guys had a lot of fun chasing after him, didn't you?"

Su Mo activated R [Exiled Edge].

E [Go Forward] + Q1!

In an instant, he rushed towards Gumayusi's face!

Gumayusi was shocked and countered with a backhand R.

Su Mo's W [Soul-Suppressing Roar] stuns! He tanks Varus's ultimate, but manages to land a Q2 and a basic attack before being immobilized!

Eclipse triggered!

Gumayusi's health dropped to half instantly.

Keria inflicts weakness.

Su Mo was weakened, greatly reducing his damage output, and was also imprisoned by Varus.

T1's players turned around and focused their fire on Riven!

Faker's Akali flew in and unleashed a burst of damage.

Su Mo's resurrection armor was triggered!
"Riven's down! Her Guardian Angel is on cooldown! Is T1 going to turn this around?!" Wawa shouted in horror.

But just as Su Mo collapsed...

Scout stepped up!

Sylas stole Gnar's ultimate ability!

Taking advantage of the moment when the T1 players were gathered around Riven's corpse, preparing to press her up.

Scout used his E skill to pull Fryegor in, dashed into the fray, and then flashed to reposition himself!

R [Nar!]

"boom!"

Scout's ultimate move slammed Faker, Oner, and Zeus, who were guarding the corpse, against the wall!
"Scout!! A god descended from heaven!! He got three shots!!" Miller roared.

Meanwhile, Viper's Ashe unleashed her Q skill from afar, dealing massive damage and slowing down the enemy team with a barrage of arrows.

The countdown for the resurrection item has ended.

Su Mo stood up.

"It's my turn."

At this moment, the three members of T1 were stunned by the wall slam, and their skills were in a cooldown period.

The moment Su Mo stood up, Q3 [Dance of Broken Wings] slammed down!
Three people were knocked away!

This was a perfect control sequence!

R2 [Swift Slash] is unleashed!
Green sword energy swept across the battlefield, reaping the remaining blood.

Triple Kill!

Su Mo instantly secured a triple kill!

Faker fell, Oner fell, Zeus fell.

The remaining Gumayusi and Keria could only flee in despair, and were eventually killed by Viper.

ACE!

Destroy the group!

"Invincible team fight!!!" Guan Zeyuan jumped up from the commentary booth, "Coordination in a desperate situation! Scout's wall-slam was priceless! Mozi revived and finished off the remaining enemies! EDG scored a 1-for-5!!"

After wiping out the enemy team, EDG took the Baron Nashor.

The situation became clear in an instant.

The economic gap has widened again to 8000. (End of Chapter)
