LOL: What is a concept player?

Chapter 385 Blood Spurt

It's too late, but it's soon.

In the blink of an eye, the steel figure silently emerged from the flank, accompanied by a flash of golden light. In just a moment, before Teddy could react, he was caught by Chu Ran.

"My God! Chu Shen's EE Flash hit Lucian again, and he trapped him with a Hextech Ultimatum, trapping him and beating him in the door!" Guan Zeyuan shouted with his arms raised. "Not only that, Nautilus also applied his ultimate to Jarvan IV, and a hook directly restricted Faker's landing, giving Jackeylove room to escape, and Jackeylove counterattacked!"

At this moment, Teddy's expression changed drastically. He frantically tried to manipulate the Hextech ultimatum, but all his efforts were in vain.

boom!
The precise and polite kick immediately halved Lucian's health bar, causing Teddy to turn pale and let out a terrified roar, "Damn it!"

He didn't understand what kind of damage Camille was dealing. Did she think that even after being slashed a few times, she could still kick AD carries like dogs?

"Siba!"

"Mata's bubble has emptied!"

The Korean commentator was terrified, clutching his head and wailing, "Teddy's going to fall! Mata's deadly empty bubble!"

Seeing Chu Ran easily dodge his water bubble, Mata was completely distraught. Watching Lucian's health plummet, he was frantic with worry and had no other options.

Just then, Rooike's Jayce arrived at the scene, and the moment Camille's ultimate disappeared, Teddy immediately used Flash.

The next second!
A blue particle ball struck Lucian precisely between the eyebrows with astonishing speed, instantly depleting his last bit of health.

"IG-Rooike has killed SKT-Teddy!"

When the game announcement rang out, the audience at the venue and in the live broadcast room erupted in cheers.

"Rooike has arrived on the battlefield, and he took down Lucian with a single shot!" Miller shouted with joy. "Rooike's Jayce has switched forms and is charging in! SKT is about to collapse!"

With Lucian dead, SKT is completely lacking in damage in this late-game situation and has no chance of continuing.

Seeing his teammate's body lying quietly on the ground of Summoner's Rift, Faker was furious. He didn't know what Teddy was doing, that he could still be caught by Camille even with Flash.

Most importantly, they couldn't touch Xayah anymore, which allowed Jackeylove's Xayah to mindlessly deal damage while at low health.

Faker gritted his teeth, watching Clid's Prince's health bar plummet. He knew there was no way out, so he immediately used Flash and Righteous Punch, determined to take down Jackeylove.

But at this critical moment, a golden light quietly appeared on Meiko's Titan. As Faker used Flash in sync, and Galio charged up his Justice Punch, a basic attack landed.

Amidst the spotlight.

Galio was immediately immobilized on the spot.

"Holy crap, fields!" Jackeylove exclaimed.

Everyone at the scene and in the live broadcast room was stunned and dumbfounded. Several Korean commentators even clutched their heads and screamed in despair.

"No! Meiko flashed and interrupted Faker, how could this happen!"

"If Clid falls, Mata will fall too!"

On screen, Jayce's burst of power instantly killed the prince, infuriating Clid who pounded his chair armrests, while Mata slammed his keyboard. Seeing the situation was dire, he immediately used Flash to escape.

However, Chu Ran naturally wouldn't let him go so easily. He chased him straight into the tower, kicked him to death with a final kick, and calmly left the tower's attack range.

"My God! SKT is going to suffer a crushing defeat this time, with only Faker left!" Wang Duoduo exclaimed excitedly, gesturing wildly. "Faker is trading for Jackeylove, but he can't touch him!"

"In the end, Xayah took the kill directly." Wang Duoduo waved his fist and said with great joy, "SKT's proactive attack was countered by our IG, resulting in a 0-for-4 exchange!"

"This is IG. Don't fight with IG, because no one can beat us!"

As Wang Duoduo's shouts and cheers subsided, the scene and the live broadcast room suddenly erupted into chaos. Countless SKT fans felt a chill run down their spines, a cold air rushed straight to their heads, and they felt completely unable to breathe. A sense of despair filled every part of their hearts.

On the contrary, the vast majority of LPL viewers were overjoyed and wanted to do everything they could to cheer for IG, and they did not hold back their praise.

Throughout the live stream, praise comments sprang up like mushrooms after rain, filling the entire screen.

[66666! IG is awesome!]

[Just asking, did Teddy learn Lucian from Uzi? Did they remove the Flash button?]

[Haha, who can blame everyone when Uzi is the world's best ADC? Naturally, everyone wants to learn from him.]

[I'm laughing so hard. Is this the invincible SKT? Even so, they can't beat Jackeylove.]

Seeing these comments, many Han fans and science enthusiasts were furious, and what angered them even more was Teddy's performance.

Just like Uzi, who was furiously pounding the table in his live stream, exclaiming in a fit of impotent rage, "Damn it, what is Teddy doing? How did Camille manage to engage on him?"

"I'm so fed up, okay? If this Lucian hadn't died, at least three IG players would have died in this wave. What do you mean by not using Flash like I taught you? Can the haters get out of my stream?"

Uzi was furious and immediately started muting people.

After this team fight, SKT's mid, bot, and jungle have completely lost their advantage. All they can do now is hope that Gangplank can quickly farm up and take over the game.

Overall, SKT still has a chance; there's still room for them to turn the tide in this game.

The loss of the dragon to IG immediately caused several Korean commentators to frown and say with great disappointment: "Damn it, SKT has made the same old mistake. They made decisions without figuring out the enemy jungler's position, which resulted in them being counter-ganked by the enemy jungler every time."

"Yes, mainly because the opposing team acted so well. First, their aggressive pushing in the top lane gave us the illusion that their jungler was in the top lane. In addition, their bot lane gave them opportunities. We can't blame SKT; we can only say that the opposing team was more skilled."

"That's right. I think SKT needs to think carefully about how to play next. To put it bluntly, it's still a vision problem. SKT needs to improve their vision control to ensure they can spot the enemy jungler most of the time so they can make decisions. But I think SKT shouldn't be discouraged. We still have a chance. Khan's Gangplank is actually doing quite well."

As the Korean commentators finished their analysis, the broadcast thoughtfully showed the economic charts of both teams. Khan's Gangplank, relying on his passive ability and the Kleptomancy rune, actually ranked in the top three in terms of economy despite not having any kills or assists.

Seeing this, Miller exclaimed in amazement, "I can only say that this version of Gangplank is a Tier 0 hero. He farms gold so fast. He can just Q you and steal gold. Who can play with him?"

“That’s right.” Guan Zeyuan nodded in agreement. “However, I don’t think it’s a big problem. Our IG has a huge advantage, and it’s still a long time before this captain comes out of retirement. Judging from the current situation, SKT is planning to give up this Rift Herald.”

Just as Guan Zeyuan said, after experiencing a crushing defeat, SKT did not decide to contest the first Rift Herald with IG.

Jackeylove and Meiko had already arrived in the mid lane, but SKT's bot lane duo remained in the bot lane, showing no intention of contesting the Rift Herald.

For SKT right now, their early game damage dealers Lucian and Nami don't have much of an advantage, so team fights aren't going to be easy, and both sides are evenly matched in the top lane.

To be on the safe side, Faker made the decision to switch resources. He wanted to wait until Lucian had some items before engaging, and he also needed to build up his tankiness with Jarvan IV. Otherwise, Rookie's Jayce could take down even one of their shots, let alone the other squishy champions.

Jayce is incredibly strong at this point in the game; he's completely different from Khan's Jayce in the previous game.

"Axiba!"

Clid was a bit off, failing to defend the dragon as a jungler and then failing to defend the Rift Herald as well, which was indeed embarrassing, just like in the last game.

But he was also helpless. Sometimes jungling is all about relying on teammates. When teammates have an advantage, it's easier for the jungler to perform. When teammates are at a disadvantage, the jungler is just a nobody on the sidelines.

"Great!" Guan Zeyuan said with a radiant smile, "IG has secured the Rift Herald and has all the important resources in the early game. However, SKT may take the first tower, but it shouldn't be a big problem."

"This Herald can be used to directly attack the mid tower. If we can take down the mid tower, then Faker will be restricted again, just like in the last game, and thus unable to perform."

Chu Ran and Faker, among others, naturally knew the answer to this question.

Chu Ran has always believed that the best way to counter Faker is to deny Faker any room to maneuver. When playing Galio, he prevents Faker from roaming and providing support. As it turns out, this strategy is very effective.

"Wait for TheShy to come over, then we'll group up and push down the enemy's mid-lane tower."

Hearing Chu Ran's words, TheShy nodded, "Okay."

At the same time, in SKT's voice chat, Faker frowned and said, "We can't lose the mid tower. If we lose it, it'll be like the last game. We'll defend it as long as we can, and once Gangplank gets farmed, we can still fight."

Faker's decision was unanimously agreed upon by his teammates.

A moment later, as the game time ticked away, just two minutes before the second dragon spawned, Chu Ran and the others gathered in the mid lane. The Rift Herald was released, and this time SKT did not use the strategy of trading gold.

They need to rely on their own lineup to forcibly defend their mid-lane tower.

"Oh my god, what are IG doing? They even called TheShy over. Are they going to take down SKT's mid-lane turret right away?" Miller's eyes widened, his tone worried. "But that won't work. Two layers of turret plating should be enough. IG is being a bit too hasty!"

"Damn it, the captain unleashed his ultimate, clearing out the minion wave. Clid's Prince is right there, poised to pounce!" Guan Zeyuan was somewhat panicked, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.

On the screen, in front of SKT's mid-lane tower, the Rift Herald launched the first attack, but Jackeylove's Xayah's range was too short, making it virtually impossible for him to attack the tower. SKT was determined to defend this mid-lane tower.

At that very moment, Clid, who was near his own F6, suddenly launched an attack. He seized the moment when Rooike's Jayce made a positioning mistake and decisively used his EQ combo, but Rooike decisively used Flash to dodge it.

Even if they dodged this skill, SKT still had a killer move. Nami's ultimate, Bubble, and Lucian's ultimate suddenly appeared. Jarvan IV's Cataclysm directly covered Jayce, instantly scaring Miller and the others so much they had heart attacks.

"Oh no! This is going to be a big mess! Rooike's been taken out!" Miller shouted hysterically. "Galio's already jumped high, watch out for Gangplank's double barrel combo!"

boom!
Near the mid lane, a fire quietly appeared, and a huge crack appeared in the canyon floor. The captain's barrel exploded and hit Jayce. Then Galio's ultimate landed, and Xayah also flew into the air at the same time, with feathers covering the ground.

The next second, Rooike's Jayce was immediately sent back to the fountain, causing countless SKT fans to go wild.

The LCK commentary booth was filled with deafening shouts that never stopped.

"Lee Sang-hyeok! Faker! He led his teammates to initiate a team fight and instantly killed the enemy Jayce. This team fight is going to be won! We're going to turn the tide! Teddy is dealing massive damage, watch out for Camille!"

"Titan's ultimate was used on Teddy, but he's far away. Camille is already charging in! But don't worry, we'll just take care of Camille!"

In the blink of an eye, Chu Ran said calmly, "TheShy, look at the captain!"

Without time for further communication, he charged straight at Lucian, who was hiding behind him. When he saw the grappling hook coming toward him, Teddy reacted this time and immediately dodged with a slide step.

Hextech ultimatum!

In an instant, Mata was knocked back by the shock. Chu Ran once again trapped Teddy and beat him up, but this time Mata had put him in a weakened state. At the same time, Meiko ignored Jackeylove, used Q to teleport to the tower, and used his ultimate on the captain.

Before all the viewers could react, TheShy's vampire suddenly entered the arena.

The Blood Plague of the Binding Jewel!
A massive cloud of blood mist condensed on the captain and Nami, startling Khan so much that he immediately used Q-barrel Flash, sending the barrel's flames hurtling towards Chu Ran's Steel Shadow, making everyone's hearts leap into their throats.

Nami's bubbles appeared, but at that very moment, Chu Ran controlled Camille to kick Lucian hard, then used his speed boost to take a step back, directly avoiding both skills, leaving everyone speechless!

"My God! Chu Shen's exquisite positioning and precise speed boost to dodge skills means Lucian is going to be solo-killed by Chu Shen!" Wang Duoduo shouted, but before he could cheer for Chu Ran, he was already done for.

boom!
Two golden lights flashed, and under the gaze of countless eyes, the vampire suddenly used his E-Flash-Red-Rage-Q combo, which erupted almost simultaneously with his ultimate. The damage left everyone stunned.

Nami and the captain's health bars were completely depleted almost instantly, leaving them as two corpses lying on the ground.

"IG's TheShy has killed SKT's Khan!"

"IG-TheShy has killed SKT-Mata!"

"Doublu klil!"

The deafening sound of a double kill echoed through the sky, leaving many viewers unable to believe their eyes and ears.

Everything happened so fast, it caught everyone off guard and made them gasp in shock!

"My God! TheShy, that vampire, single-handedly wiped out SKT's top laner and support!" Guan Zeyuan was so shocked that he shouted in disbelief.

"What kind of thing is this vampire?!"

"Lucian is going to fall too! IG is going to win this team fight by a huge margin!"

No one expected that the situation in the mid lane would take such a dramatic turn, leaving even Faker and Clid completely bewildered.

No, where are their teammates?

How come they managed to get to the enemy's backline and even kill Jayce instantly, but what about their subsequent damage output?
Looking back, I found several of my teammates lying quietly under the tower.

Where are my teammates now?
They're all enemies!
"Siba!!"

At this moment, Faker finally stopped and let out an extremely angry shout, "What are you doing?!"

Teddy and the others looked stunned and somewhat dazed, still unable to recover from the scene they had just witnessed, until Galio and the Prince both fell to the ground, and an incredibly loud game announcement shook the entire world.

"ACE!"
