LOL: What is a concept player?

Chapter 380 You think you can reach the sky? I'll break your legs!

Just as Faker was stunned, he saw that the area around his screen had turned black and white, which immediately surprised him.

"Siba!"

He never expected that Chu Ran's Nightmare would reach level 6 so quickly. Keep in mind that he, as a mid-laner, had only recently reached level 6. It's safe to say that Chu Ran's Nightmare's development is truly terrifying.

Of course, what Faker didn't expect was that Chu Ran used his first ultimate on himself, even though he was just a Galio.

What was the idea behind capturing Galio?

There wasn't time to think too much. Faker immediately retreated and unleashed his Justice Punch, but it still couldn't keep up with the speed of Nightmare's ultimate.

Upon seeing this, many viewers and commentators widened their eyes and exclaimed in surprise.

On the LPL commentary booth, Miller was the first to exclaim in surprise, "Chu Shen's Nocturne used his ultimate the moment he reached level 6! His target was Faker's Galio, which none of us expected. Is there any chance for him?!"

"Wow! Rooike has put a ball on Chu Shen, here comes the combo!"

On screen, the moment Nightmare reached Galio's side, a protective shield appeared around him, making it impossible for Faker to control Nightmare immediately, whether he used W or E.

At the same time, the two chains in Nightmare's hands stood out, and what made Faker even more desperate was the Clockwork ultimate that resembled swirling clouds!

Command! Shockwave!

Bang it!
His Galio staggered, pulled back by Orianna's ultimate, causing Faker to bite his lip tightly; he knew he was doomed.

"Pizza! Faker's about to fall!"

On the LCK commentary booth, several Korean commentators were wailing in incredibly pitiful voices, almost like they were crying.

With Orianna's RWQ combo, Galio's health bar was already significantly reduced, not to mention the well-farmed Nocturne adding damage from the side.

fear!

Two huge characters appeared above Galio's head, and a dark gray path suddenly appeared. With a few auto-attacks from Nightmare, Faker's Galio fell to the ground.

"IG-Easy has killed SKT-Faker!"

The thrilling sound of a kill echoed once again throughout Summoner's Rift, igniting the excitement of viewers both at the venue and in the live stream.

"Nice!"

Guan Zeyuan excitedly pumped his fist and shouted, "Chu Shen and Rooike's mid-jungle combo directly took down Faker. His Galio died twice in a row and is now more than half useless!"

“That’s right!” Wang Duoduo chimed in excitedly. “Perhaps this is IG’s decision. Lee Sang-hyeok’s Galio is indeed very strong. He once impressed the world with five consecutive games with Galio. But I’m going to pick on your Galio. What do you say?”

"Given this kind of ganking, we at IG don't believe your Galio can still be effective!"

Wang Duoduo was right; this was exactly what Chu Ran was thinking. Jayce in the top lane couldn't gain much of an advantage anymore, and after the last tower dive, Khan was even being pressured by Thehsy's Gnar.

Unless there are special circumstances and Jayce gets a few kills later, his threat level in team fights during the early to mid-game will be greatly reduced.

As for the Alistar-Kasa duo in the bottom lane, they're practically useless. They're not even a match for Jackeylove and Meiko. Kaisa needs at least three items to be effective, so Chu Ran thinks...

In this situation, if we can stop Faker's Galio roaming, then there are basically no more surprises in this game.

Clid's Lee Sin was practically sleepwalking; when Galio fell, he was leisurely making his way to the mid lane, only level 5.

After being tower-dived and killed, Chu Ran's Nightmare didn't recall. Instead, he went straight to his bottom jungle and stole another round of jungle monsters from the mid and bottom lanes. Clid was completely dumbfounded and had no idea what to do.

"Sang-hyuk hyung, hang in there a little longer, I'm coming."

Hearing this, Faker was a little annoyed; he suddenly wanted to play jungle this year.

He was willing to wait, but the other side wasn't. He pressed Tab and saw that Lee Sin's CS was 20 or 30 CS behind Nocturne's, and Faker was furious.

This really shows the difference in jungle skills.

Not only him, but many commentators during the match were frequently asking, "Clid, what are you doing?!"

Countless Korean fans and South Korean trolls were furious, and the live stream chat was filled with their insults towards Clid.

[Damn it, Clid, you're sleepwalking even when playing Lee Sin? What the hell are you doing?!]

[Seriously, this Lee Sin was completely useless the whole game. Did he just follow Nocturne around? While others were ganking mid, you went and ganked top and bottom lanes instead.]

[What a terrible jungler! I guarantee it, Clid is the worst jungler SKT has ever had in all these years.]

[Hilarious! So you start talking about jungle skill gaps just because Dafei got caught and killed? How can you idiots be so good at defending him?]

You guys can wash even better than bath dogs! Were you a washing machine in your past life?

With Faker's recent death, viewers across all regions are once again engaged in heated discussions.

Many SKT fans at the scene fell silent as they looked at the current kill and gold ratios. SKT clearly had a strong early-game lineup with a top, mid, and jungle, but IG was taking the lead instead.

This is no way to play Der!

Mata felt like ants were crawling all over his body. All he wanted to do was roam around and help his teammates get ahead, but he really didn't know what to say about his teammate Teddy.

He was probably the worst AD carry I ever played as a support in my professional career.

He suddenly missed Imp. Back then, Imp could easily take on two opponents in the bottom lane, but Teddy would die the moment Mata dared to leave the bottom lane.

"Jungler, do something, come help the bot lane."

"Wait a minute."

At this moment, Clid was clearing the minion wave that had been pushed to the mid lane tower. When he saw Chu Ran and the others going to take the dragon, there was nothing he could do. The first dragon was a water dragon, so he gave it up.

But the current situation is very bad for SKT.

Faker thought it over carefully and decided that they couldn't give up the Rift Herald any longer, so he quickly said, "The bot lane should come to the mid lane ahead of time and prepare for the Rift Herald team fight."

After careful consideration, everyone agreed with Faker's decision. After all, if they were to give up all the resources, they might as well just give up the crystal as well.

In stark contrast to the atmosphere within the SKT team, the entire IG team's voice chat was filled with laughter and joy. If things continued this way, they were certain to win this game.

"Ran is awesome! The enemy jungler is totally following in Ran's footsteps." Meiko laughed. "It seems like the enemy team has their eye on the Rift Herald. The bot laner recalled, so they'll probably head straight to the mid lane."

"Why don't we just give up? The enemy team has more people and will control the river first, and neither you nor Rooike have your ultimates." Hearing Meiko's words, TheShy suddenly said in a deep voice, "I think we can fight. I can initiate."

"Then fight!"

Chu Ran quickly made a decision: if they won this team fight, they would basically have secured the victory.

The director also noticed the movements of both sides. Guan Zeyuan was surprised and exclaimed, "Oh my god, is IG going to engage in this vanguard team fight? But both the mid and jungle positions lack crucial ultimate abilities."

"I think we can just let it go. There's no need to take it. The first Rift Herald just spawned. We can consider giving it to SKT and playing it safe."

Miller nodded in agreement, his brows furrowed. "I think Teacher Zeyuan is right. There's no need to take such a big risk for a vanguard. If a fight breaks out, something terrible will happen. But IG shows no sign of backing down. Their bot lane duo has already come over!"

Under the watchful eyes of the entire internet, the entire SKT team had already taken control of the top river, with Khan's Jayce starting to poker like crazy, and Kai'Sa occasionally unleashing her W Void Seeker.

At the same time, SKT had already activated the Rift Herald, and the entire IG team was blocked above the river, unable to squeeze through.

Seeing this, many SKT fans breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they could take down the Rift Herald, they could salvage the situation and still have a chance to win the game.

But in the blink of an eye, signals from IG kept appearing near the Dragon Pit. TheShy's Gnar had already accumulated enough anger, and before anyone could react, his Gnar jumped into the Dragon Pit.

Double jump!
With his ultimate ability, he swept across the battlefield, instantly transforming a mini-Gnar into a giant and slamming the SKT players who were attacking the Rift Herald against the wall.

hiss!
Countless viewers, both online and offline, gasped in astonishment, speechless!

"My God! TheShy's Gnar hit three people directly! He initiated the team fight with Gnar, and Meiko's Rakan also entered the fray instantly, flashing in a flash to interrupt Faker's Galio ultimate, making another grand entrance and lifting Jayce into the air, and finally gracefully returning to Gnar."

Guan Zeyuan was almost breathless, speaking at a machine gun speed, "My God, IG initiated an absolutely amazing team fight, SKT is going to explode! Jackeylove dodged Alistar's combo with a barrage of attacks, and then directly used an R-flash to hook him!!"

On screen, the instant Jackeylove's Xayah landed, feathers on the ground swiftly pierced through the bodies of several SKT players, especially Teddy's Kai'Sa, who was instantly killed before even using her ultimate and two summoner spells.

Khan's Jayce was no exception. Chu Ran and Rooike took him down together, and SKT's lineup was immediately overwhelmed. The fans who were just cheering for them were so shocked that their jaws dropped to the ground, and they couldn't believe what they were seeing!
"Jayce, Jayce is also in trouble!"

"SKT is about to collapse!!"

"My God, IG pulled off another miraculous team fight! TheShy's Gnar went into the dragon pit and wiped out three opponents in one hit! The Buddha's Palm technique has reappeared in the world!" Guan Zeyuan was so excited that his face turned red. "This is IG!"

Seeing that Guan Zeyuan was out of breath, Miller quickly added, "It's over, SKT. Their highest damage dealers, Jayce and Kai'Sa, have been instantly killed. They can't win this team fight."

"But IG won't let them retreat at all. The IG players are chasing and dealing damage like crazy. Lee Sin is going to die, Alistar is going to die! Faker is going to die too! One wave of vanguard team fight, and they're going to wipe out SKT!"

A moment later, countless game announcements resounded through the sky, and the sound of the team being wiped out reached everyone's eardrums, frantically stimulating their auditory nerves, leaving them all stunned.

In the LCK commentary booth, the Korean commentators suddenly plummeted from heaven to hell, clutching their heads and wailing in despair.

"No! Completely pizza! Why is this happening! SKT!!"

The shrill sound of the battle was still echoing wildly in our ears. The entire scene and the live broadcast room had completely exploded. When the team fight ended, the viewers who watched another wave of the team fight were all dumbfounded.

In particular, TheShy and Meiko's coordinated team fights were incredibly fast, leaving no time to react.

[66666! IG is awesome!]

[You trolls, don't you have mouths?!]

[Who gave you the courage to take the Vanguard? SKT, you should just wait for the Nexus to fall!]

This is SKT returning to their former glory! They're incredibly strong!

At this moment, the chat in all the live streams was scrolling wildly, and those who had been cheering for SKT had shut up.

They never expected that SKT, who clearly had the advantage in this team fight, would be wiped out by IG. They had no idea what SKT was doing!
SKT's booth suddenly fell silent. Mata and the others had flushed faces, as if they were in a state of feverish heat. Faker's forehead was covered in beads of sweat, which were visible to the naked eye!

"Damn it! Why is nobody watching this Gnar?!" Mata broke down. He had finally found a rhythm, but it was all gone again. He frantically tapped Kai'Sa's corpse and uttered a question from the depths of his soul.

"Where's your ultimate skill? Where's your Flash?!"

Teddy bit his lip and could only answer reluctantly, "I didn't realize it."

Upon hearing this, what could Mata say? He didn't even react, so this team fight was destined to be lost.

But after this team fight, not only did they give IG a team wipe, but they also lost the Rift Herald. So how should they defend it now? Nightmare and Orianna's ultimate abilities will be ready again.

"Go straight for it, arrest Lee Sang-hyeok!"

As expected, many viewers were still discussing the Vanguard team, but a few minutes later, the sky darkened again, and Faker in the mid lane was ganked again, which made Faker, who was focused on pushing the lane and roaming, very annoyed.

They couldn't win in a fight, and they couldn't escape either.

This time Clid learned his lesson and went straight to the bottom lane to gank, but Jackeylove and Meiko had already retreated.

"Wow, Faker got caught and killed again. After Chu Shen reached level 6, no one expected that he would use his ultimate to fly into Faker and achieve great success. So, let's release the Herald."

"Is no one from SKT coming to defend? If no one comes, our plating and first tower will be gone!"

Just as Guan Zeyuan was wondering what was going on, Jayce's Teleport appeared, but Gnar's Teleport followed immediately. Especially under the mid-lane turret, Chu Ran and Rooike were prepared to kill Jayce as soon as he landed.

Khan acted decisively, immediately using his Flash, which was on cooldown shortly after being used, in an attempt to clear the wave and hold the line with Shockwave. However, the Rift Herald was too large to handle.

As for the bot lane duo and Clid, they are racing against IG to see if they can take down IG's bot lane tower first and get the first tower kill.

But things backfired.

A while later, SKT's mid-lane tower finally collapsed first. In exchange for the loss of the mid-lane tower, IG could be said to have gained a bad deal in this game.

Without the mid-lane tower, they can extend their vision range further.

Conversely, Faker's Galio influence range has shrunk once again, making it very difficult for Faker to roam at this moment. This is the tactic of Chu Ran and the rest of IG.

Faker, you still want to use Galio to dominate, trying to replicate the effect of RNG's five-time Galio ban in the previous game.

But he forgot one thing: Faker and SKT are no longer at their peak, and IG is no longer RNG.

"Beautiful! Chu Shen!"

Hearing Rooike's exclamation, Chu Ran's lips curled into a slight smile.

Lee Sang-hyeok wants to save the world by himself and rely on Galio to hold on, then Chu Ran will just break Faker's legs and see if he can still hold on!
