My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 147 Camille Responds to His King

River location.

Faker secretly breathed a sigh of relief after finally seizing a weakness in V5 and turning the tide of the game.

This MSI finals were too difficult.

Whether it's discipline, hero pool, player form, or even the level of teamwork and discipline, the opposing team, which had only been reorganized for half a year, displayed an overwhelming dominance.

He didn't know how many more flashes of inspiration he could maintain like that.

At least.

The second wave of vanguard teams won successfully. Looking at the recall animation that indicated their imminent return to base, a hint of joy flashed through their minds.

however.

Just as he was about to return to the city, at the very last second, he realized he was about to be back.

in front of you.

But a flash of silver light streaked past.

E [Hook and Loop]!
Camille is kicking!?

Faker was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered.

My recall time is almost up. Even if Camille kicks me, she shouldn't be able to hit me when I'm about to recall, because the last fraction of a second of recall time is invincibility.

But when he looked at his teammates with this thought in mind, he suddenly panicked, and his hand instinctively tried to interrupt his own recall.

Compared to his own limit, his two teammates next to him clearly still had a few seconds left to cast for recalling to base.

That is
Blue Steel Shadow.

They clearly timed the team fight to start right at the last second before he returned to base!
Thinking of this.

Faker felt an overwhelming sense of terror deep within him.

But right now.

He could only helplessly watch as Camille kicked the bot lane duo, successfully interrupting their recall.

By the time he wanted to make another move, the hero he was controlling had already subconsciously walked out of the fountain.

He is back.

and this.

This means that he succeeded.

off the field.

The terrifying roar that had been stirred up by Faker's godlike performance came to an abrupt end the moment Camille kicked two people unconscious.

Instead, the two commentators connected to the live broadcast of the match started yelling like they were in a turn-based game!

"Mebius!"

"Mebius' Camille kicked in, and V5's only two carries haven't given up yet. They seized the moment when T1 was most relaxed!"

"Faker successfully recalled to base, Gumayusi and Keria were successfully caught, Zeus realized something was wrong and is rushing back, but it's too late!!!"

"In this round, Camille answered his king!"

T1 there.

Little Lu Bu is almost going crazy.

Why! ?

Why is it that every action we take is met with an even fiercer counterattack in the blink of an eye?

Does the Pokémon world also have its own version of "double payback" in the real world?

The follow-up to Camille's WE team's all-out rush was a high leap into the air after Q followed by her ultimate.

R【Hex Ultimatum】!
Keria reacted quickly, managing to control Camille after her ultimate landed.

But he can control Camille.

Who should take care of Xayah, who's relentlessly attacking them from behind?

Behind Camille.

Photic is unleashing his full potential by pushing basic movement techniques to the extreme. Xayah is a skill-based AD carry, but after the skills, the fundamentals of an AD carry are constantly being showcased.

The perfect positioning, basic attack, and kiting angle of the E skill's hook.

Any skill-based AD will eventually become mundane in the end, and Zeus finally arrived on the battlefield amidst the chaos.

But all Little Gnar could do was to actively attack Photic's Xayah, trying to distract him.

The sudden reversal of the game situation excited the commentators from all regions.

No one expected it.

In the final round of the match, it turned out that both teams had players constantly emerging to save the day.

The second stage of true damage from A, combined with Xayah's burst of damage, brought down Gumayusi's Jinx.

But not enough!

Far from enough!

The instant AD died, Xiao Yan, controlling Xayah, pulled her up with a hook.

It's not a simple barb.

Instead, at the moment of attack, he used his Flash ability to forcibly change the angle of retraction.

The feathers, as they pierced through Leona, also pierced through the landing point after her Flash, spreading across Gnar's entire path.

[Imprisonment]!
Xiao Yan, who took the initiative to change his position, managed to control T1's top and support by using his E skill to pull them apart.

Camille, having retrieved her blade from Jinx's corpse, immediately launched a counterattack against Gnar, who was facing Zeus.

Little Gnar is too fragile.

Facing two opponents alone, his body simply couldn't withstand the damage from V5's two carries. Keria sensed something was wrong and tried to run away, but at that moment, Camille, who had just recovered and dealt damage with her AQ combo, suddenly used the speed boost from her Q to chase after Leona's position.

Dual-line operation, dual-front battlefield.

Xayah and Gnar were locked in a rather unfair duel in the royal city, while Camille in the jungle was chasing Leona like she was beating a drowning dog.

No one could have predicted that the competition would suddenly turn out this way.

By the time they came to their senses...

in front of you.

Two kill notifications sounded in quick succession.

V5_Photic killed T1_Zeus
V5_Mebius killed T1_Keria
No longer a 1-for-3 exchange
Instead, it was a 4-for-3 exchange.
Of the entire T1 team, only Faker survived, even though they still controlled the Rift Herald.

But they all knew.

After V5 caught up in the gold from kills, even when more Vanguards were released, they were hesitant to continue pressuring with them.

The tide has turned!
【Ohhhhhh~】

[Keep yelling! Keep yelling! Weren't you yelling quite enthusiastically in Busan just now? Why have you stopped now!?]

[Stabilizing a collapsing building and turning the tide—that was a brilliant move!]

[I dream of being the culmination of Confucianism in the Valley of the Rams!]

off the field.

In fact, many professional players initially scoffed at Luo Ji and Xiao Yan's impulsiveness.

They initially thought they were just throwing the game away, since it was a 2v4 situation, which clearly showed they weren't taking the opposing T1 team seriously.

But they didn't expect it.

Just like Faker, Luo Ji actually found the "only correct answer" among thousands of options.

really.

The thinking of top players is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, and the thinking of aliens is even more convoluted and bizarre. This game can be played like this?!
"Cow batch!"

"Holy crap, they really won?"

"Nice! Push! Push now!! Take down their outer and middle towers while we still can!!!"

In V5 voice.

The three main types of soy sauce from the spring water erupted in an uncontrollable cheer.

Really.

They genuinely believed they had given away their chance, and even fantasized that they would only be able to watch helplessly as T1, like a centipede that cannot be broken, continued to struggle, while they, despite having an advantage, lived in constant fear because it was not significant enough.

But for now, they have absolutely nothing to worry about.

Yes.

Even if they take down the second vanguard.

Follow up.

As Luo Ji had predicted, the T1 performed exactly as expected.

The vanguard was summoned, but they didn't dare to push. Without a significant economic lead, V5's teamfight initiation heroes were likely to die if they dared to pressure them.

But we can't just follow the trend. This vanguard we went through so much trouble to acquire hasn't even served its intended purpose.

Even the commentators in LCK's official commentary room had to admit that T1 had already stepped into the gates of hell, and all they needed was a final boost from V5.

sideline.

Zeus was very absent-minded after his resurrection.

Before coming to MSI, he never imagined he would encounter such a depressing situation.

The expected lane dominance failed to materialize, and the lane rotation strategy was repeatedly broken. Just when the team's star player managed to turn the tide, Luo Ji, whom they considered their nemesis, caught up and took back the lead.

Perhaps he can accept the loss in the game.

But I don’t know why.

He couldn't accept that his performance in this BO5 was worse than the opponent's top laner. His absent-mindedness even made him subconsciously ignore his own position.

Compared to his usual caution.

This time, he clearly brought out an extra wave of minions, and his position was also closer to the river than before.

As a player for T1, a team known for its strong operations.

He knew very well that his position was full of risks, but since he was already there, he could only hope that no one from the opposing team would come to gank him on the side lane.

This moment.

Murphy's Law has been triggered.

(Note: If something can go wrong, it will, no matter how small the chance.)
When Zeus saw Camille suddenly fly out of his own jungle and kick him in the face with her W activated, he was startled and instinctively started looking for an escape route.

No matter what.

The current Camille is no longer the same Camille as she was just a few minutes ago.

The development of Tianfei, the gains from kills, and the support of the team's economy have given him a full half-piece advantage in equipment over Gnar, meaning he has two pieces of equipment compared to one and a half pieces.

The damage from a Greedy God's Divine Split attacking a God's Divine Split is not even in the same league as the damage from a Destroyer's scattered pieces.

He ran.

he chased.

But he couldn't escape.

Camille's chasing ability is too strong. Her Q speed boost, E hook, and ultimate's forced duel make Zeus in Gnar form somewhat helpless.

Looking at the bewildered Nar in front of him.

Luo Ji felt that Zeus in front of him had not yet grown into the demon king form he remembered. At this moment, the light emanating from him seemed a little too dim.

Remembering that his hero microphone would definitely be released after the match, Luo Ji had a sudden thought and spoke up:

"Keep striving to grow."

"It would be too boring and easy to just defeat someone like you. I will pay my highest respects to your future self with this less-than-merciful blow."

May you have good fortune in the days to come.

"Ji Bochang, his life is long."

Despite the limitations imposed by the ultimate move, the final A combo successfully landed the hit.

V5_Mebius killed T1_Zeus
Perfect cinnabar!

broken.

When they saw Zeus get caught and killed by Camille in the split push, the T1 players who were halfway to provide support suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.

本身5V5就打不过眼前的V5，现在4V5，他们又该如何阻挡V5大人的推进？
Just as they were thinking this.

Top half.

It was a lightning-fast gathering of the four V5 players. Through their vision, they saw the opposing team's actions as they tried to save Private Zeus. However, such a large-scale movement meant that the defense in the upper half of the map was vulnerable.

The time has reached 20 minutes, and it's time for Baron Nashor to refresh.

The thing that T1 would only dare to touch with a do-or-die attitude in the first game is now being placed right in front of V5 without any warning, and the light of TP is beginning to shine.

This time.

Out of caution, Luo Ji chose to use TP directly to rejoin his teammates.

Busan.

At this moment, silence fell once again.

A few minutes later.

The moment V5, carrying the Baron buff, charged towards T1's mid-lane high ground, the T1 players on and around the high ground felt that the scene before them was somewhat difficult to handle.

It's not a question of whether or not to fight anymore.

Instead, even though they were standing on their own high ground, they had to guard against a sudden attack from the other side, as if this was not their high ground, but belonged to the other side.

This time.

Camille once again unleashed her E skill, aiming directly at Gnar under the high ground tower. Faker instinctively wanted to throw his E skill as well, and the T1 players beside him almost instinctively wanted to do something as well, but they held back.

I forced myself to hold it in.

As expected, after kicking Gnar and landing, Camille did not choose to continue attacking. Instead, she used the speed boost from her AQ combo to quickly retreat.

This is bait.

Luo Ji has a stopwatch in his pocket.

As long as T1 attacks him, the double protection of the stopwatch and ultimate ability will allow him to avoid most of the opponent's control and damage.

But they blocked Camille's sweeping leg.

That.
How are you going to block Luo's [Fleeting Glimpse]?

It's not just PPGOD's Luo.

Just as Rakan charged out from the backline with his ultimate, using his E skill to dash out, Camille, who had turned back to her senses, suddenly unleashed her ultimate, Hextech Ultimatum.

side.

Near the lower half, a blue icicle quietly spread up to the T1 high ground.

front.

It was like the monkey suddenly leaping out.

It wasn't the bravery of one person, but the arrogance of the entire team pressing forward! They weren't EDG in their off-season; with such a huge advantage in front of them, what were they waiting for if not to initiate a team fight?
Are you waiting for your return flight?
"Go go go go go!!!"

"Brothers, kill them all! Let our voices echo throughout the Busan Library!"

"Anyone who invades LPL territory will be crushed by V5!"

"Ooh-ra~"

"I want to win the championship!!!"

On the relatively small T1 high ground, blades flashed, staffs clashed, ice crystals swirled, and rainbows danced and glittered incessantly. Faker was doing everything he could to stop the team fight from collapsing, but he was overwhelmed by multiple pressures from equipment, levels, buffs, morale, and even some mystical forces.

A Tsar without his soldiers.

How can Shurima's glory be restored?

After a heavy sigh, kill announcements flooded the top of the canyon like a screen full of messages, all of them featuring T1 players.

Busan fell silent.

LPL is in an uproar.

During the final team fight, the colonel was initially putting up the most effort, but then, as if remembering something, his voice was suddenly drowned out by Miller's voice halfway through his speech.

His explanations even sounded somewhat chaotic due to the lack of timely preparation.

But this time...

However, everyone understood his actions.

He is fulfilling his duty, sealing away the causal weapon that belongs to LPL itself, the weapon that cannot distinguish between friend and foe.

The comments section was constantly filled with new messages.

[Brother Li has fallen (crying voice)]

It's actually really satisfying to win a championship on someone else's home turf, especially when you lose to five chairs.

[Unbelievable! V5's biggest weakness, the bot lane, has become their most solid bulwark this MSI. Is it true that being a "noob" is contagious?]

[Don't be silent here! Look on the bright side: although you lost the championship, you gained the world's quietest library, a true architectural marvel.]

The funniest thing is that LCK spent so much time promoting their world's best top laner, but after one round of MSI, it turned out that my dream of becoming the world's best top laner was realized.

[My dream: I don't know either. They just called me over to compete in the round-robin tournament, and after the tournament, I became number one.]

Until T1 was wiped out.

This was accompanied by the final basic attack.

3:1
V5 crushed LCK's hopes of rebirth through MSI with an almost overwhelming force.

We won the MSI championship!
