League: I really didn't tank!

Chapter 207 Let's lend our energy to QG! (Super long chapter with 1.2 words)

"Whoosh! Nice bro!" Doinb grinned from ear to ear after making a perfect support play.

"Awesome! Awesome!" Uzi grinned. "Holy crap, I almost died!"

Even now, Uzi only has a little over thirty drops of health left, and he almost got taken down.

"Come on, let's take the dragon!" At this moment, Xiangguo, who had just finished diving the tower in the top lane, traversed almost the entire minimap to reach the bottom lane and meet up with Doinb to take the dragon.

Meanwhile, Uzi, with low health, soloed the bottom lane minions and leisurely recalled to base.

The ROX players were furious watching this low-health Ashe solo farm the lane, but there was really nothing they could do!

Then Xiaolong was also taken down, further reducing ROX's chances of winning.

At this point, even Wawa couldn't help but praise, "I have to say, Doinb's Kled is really something!"

"Yeah, right!" Miller nodded in agreement. "That support was absolutely crucial! It feels like he's not just using Kled as a swingman; he really understands the game!"

Doinb's mid-lane Kled is definitely something special; it's one of his signature moves that has been passed down through generations!

Throughout Doinb's professional career, his Kled has an overall win rate of 73%!

It's just that Chen Dongqing's deliberate guidance caused the mid-lane Kled to appear a little bit earlier.

Moreover, QG's purpose in picking Kled in the mid lane at this time is not just to roam and support!

Twenty minutes passed quickly.

As usual, Kuro immediately bought a Banner of Command after returning to town.

The only reason ROX picked Karma mid was because of that little red flag. It's no exaggeration to say that ROX's third pick wasn't Karma, but Banner of Command.

The Banner of Command is followed by the Grail and the Incense Burner, which are designed primarily for functionality.

But the once invincible banner of command is no match for Kreik.

The enhanced cannon vehicle had just been released, and Doinb seemed to have already perked up.

His purpose in maxing Kled's W was precisely this: Kled charged in and unleashed four lightning-fast slashes at the siege minion, dealing percentage-based damage that brought the siege minion down to half health. At the same time, he used Tiamat's AoE to significantly reduce the health of the surrounding melee and ranged minions!

Doinb then landed a few more auto-attacks, and Kled easily took down a wave of cannon minions carrying the Banner of Command!

But when I turned around, I saw that QG's cannon minion line hadn't lost much health yet!

Doinb then disappeared from sight without looking back!

Kuro was stunned. He had acquired the Banner of Command, but he still couldn't gain lane control, which was unacceptable to him!

Doinb's goal was clear: to head straight to the top lane with Xiangguo!

Although Kled didn't have his ultimate this time, giving Smeb plenty of time to retreat to the bushes, you can forget about taking the top lane tower!

As the three pushed forward, ROX's top lane tower was instantly reduced to ruins, and QG's economic lead jumped forward by a large margin once again!

This is QG's last trump card: mid-lane Kled!

This isn't a counter-pick like Miss Fortune that can suppress the current meta, nor is it a game-changing ultimate like Banner of Command that can reshape the entire meta.

But this tactic also has its own characteristics, namely, it is not afraid of command flags.

Therefore, QG deliberately used the Banner of Command, their ultimate move, in the semifinals, completely crushing SKT's hopes of a comeback while also setting a trap for ROX.

If ROX can make use of the Banner of Command, QG can bring out their mid-lane Kled to deliver a fatal blow!

And this time, they have clearly succeeded again.

Given QG's current situation, ROX has no chance of winning.

Because their mid laner is a support-oriented Karma, they are inherently lacking an AP carry, making them unsuitable for the late game.

After taking down the top tower, Doinb moved at an extremely fast pace. He first recalled to base, and then ignored the mid tower, heading straight for the bottom lane with Kled!

The familiar music started playing again, and Kled, along with Nidalee, kicked Zyra once more!

This is the rhythm ability of mid-lane Kled. The effect of leading people to charge in is simply unreasonable!

Amidst the frenzied cheers, Kled shattered ROX's last stand with a single kick, and also destroyed the bottom lane tower in one fell swoop!

Seeing the situation in the bottom lane, Kuro immediately called Peanut over, thinking of pushing the mid tower!

But at that moment, a handsome and wealthy Piltover player slowly emerged from the darkness and quickly devoured the mid-lane minion wave under the tower, leaving ROX's mid and jungle players with no choice but to retreat in disappointment.

ROX lacks SKT's ability to mitigate losses, which limits their options when facing a significant disadvantage, making them easy targets for defense.

Immediately afterwards, QG also started pushing towers.

Now, just over 15 minutes in, QG's main force has arrived at the bottom river and launched an attack on the newly spawned Water Dragon.

Although the dragon was practically useless at this stage, QG didn't let it get in the way and took it down in no time.

At this moment, the attributes of the next dragon are refreshed, and it is confirmed to be a wind dragon.

The QG players couldn't help but start cursing.

Every time you have an advantage, you spawn Wind Dragon and Water Dragon. Why don't you spawn a River Crab and leave it there?

Fueled by resentment, Uzi's Ice went straight to the mid lane to push the tower. This time, Chen Dongqing didn't split push either, but stayed by his side to protect him!

"Electrical energy surges!"

The handsome, rich, and powerful man's voice sounds incredibly magnetic, but the damage he deals after his skills hit is also quite impressive!

It was still early, and a single shot wouldn't take away half of Jhin's health, only about 40%, but it looked incredibly satisfying!

Seeing that the shot hit its mark, Chen Dongqing felt a great sense of relief, and the resentment that the wind dragon had brought him dissipated considerably.

"The tower-pushing momentum has picked up!" Seeing this shot, the doll was even more excited: "Now all we need to do is slowly chip away at the towers, and victory is practically guaranteed!"

In the last game, the three commentators watched as QG kept getting bombarded by Jayce without initiating team fights, and when they did try to engage, they couldn't gain any advantage. They were so anxious that they all cursed Jayce as a disgusting champion.

But this time, the two extremes were reversed!

ROX, get fired upon!

At 17 minutes, the mid-lane tower was destroyed, and the QG main force showed no intention of leaving, directly pushing the mid-lane second tower!

ROX, not to be outdone, certainly couldn't allow their two towers to be destroyed so easily. So they gathered their forces and launched an attack the moment QG stepped over the ruins of the first tower!

Olaf and Fiora appeared in the back, and at the same time, GorillA's Zyra flashed and used RE to bind Kled and Annie in the front!

"Here it comes! ROX has launched a counterattack!" Doll shouted. "But we don't seem too scared!"

The weakness of ROX's lineup is that after they picked Fiora, Olaf, and Zyra, their top, jungle, and support lacked a reliable way to initiate team fights.

This also means they are ineligible to play in miracles.

Without a miracle hero like Rakan or Clockwork Rakan, how can you expect to turn the tide?

Faced with ROX's aggressive charge, Liu Qingsong even felt like laughing.

After Zyra's E skill ended and before her R skill took effect, Annie flashed and appeared in front of ROX's three backline heroes!

With a wave of her right hand, the Dark Daughter summoned a giant flaming teddy bear that appeared between the three, stunning them all!

"**! Liu Qingsong!"

"Nice!"

At that moment, the QG voice channel erupted with cheers!

Only two people remained silent: Liu Qingsong, who was showing off, and Chen Dongqing, who was only focused on taking action!

Jayce used Q-Flash-E to instantly appear in front of the three, blasting the first two into the face, then immediately used WR to switch to his hammer and used Sky Leap to smash them in the face!

Boom!

Jayce, with one and a half pieces of equipment, dealt explosive damage. With one hammer blow, Karma and Zyra, who were standing in front, had their health bars instantly emptied!

And Jin, standing behind, was clearly already a piece of the pie!

Chen Dongqing smoothly followed up with A and E, easily securing the kill.

"Triple kill!"

Chen Dongqing and Liu Qingsong worked together to instantly eliminate the three ROX players in the back row!

This put Smeb and Peanut in an awkward position, as they were flanking from behind.

Kled immediately used his EQ combo to lock down Fiora who was close by, and then relentlessly chased after her!

Peanut reacted quickly, immediately making a hasty retreat. Olaf activated his ultimate and Ghost, and QG's players still couldn't stop him!

However, Peanut's act of abandoning his teammates and escaping alone is quite similar to that of a certain jungler who reached the quarterfinals this year.

He questioned the factory manager when he was young, understood him as he grew up, and eventually became the factory manager.

"Thanks to Liu Qingsong and Shu Ge's perfect teamwork, QG easily secured a 4-0 exchange!" Wawa exclaimed, "That team fight was absolutely brilliant!"

Meanwhile, in QG's voice chat channel, countless people were still praising them.

"Holy crap, we got it!" Chen Dongqing was overjoyed after securing a triple kill, and said cheerfully, "If you had used such a powerful crowd control skill last time, wouldn't we have won?"

"Exactly!"

"What a pity, otherwise we would be ready to lift the trophy right now."

"Stop yelling! Why are you asking for a Zyra pick last game?" Liu Qingsong said angrily. "You're already being lenient by getting a pick, why are you being so picky? Just push!"

While arguing, the QG players were still pushing the turret. At this point, the respawn time was only a little over twenty seconds, which wasn't long. So they could only push down ROX's mid-lane second turret and high ground in one go, and then the players quickly retreated!

Actually, by this point, the game was practically over.

In a game, 90% of the time is actually meaningless; whether you win or lose depends mainly on those key moments.

For example, Chen Dongqing's level 3 1v2 counter-kill, Doinb's perfect support, and Liu Qingsong's R that sealed the victory with a single blow.

With these three key factors, QG's win rate has reached an unexaggerated 100%!

After returning to the city, Liu Qingsong finally managed to get his command flag. As the only person in the team who could produce a flag, his existence was quite important.

The command flag was given to the top lane, QG pushed the bottom lane, and the super minions pushed the middle lane, resulting in another classic three-lane split push!

Jayce, who had secured three kills, had now reached the two-item stage, with his equipment far ahead of the rest of the team. Now, with this shot, things would be completely different.

One shot hit the AD and support, instantly taking away half of their health!

ROX players were forced to retreat repeatedly, and QG took the opportunity to push down the bottom lane's second tower and advance to the high ground!

Meanwhile, the pressure from the super minions in the mid lane and the cannon minions in the top lane is also being exerted.

ROX was overwhelmed by this immense pressure, and their towers were slowly dying, leaving them with no choice but to engage in a desperate team fight!

However, this team fight still didn't cause much of a stir. As mentioned before, their lineup didn't have the ability to fight miracles.

QG played steadily and once again achieved a perfect 3-for-1 exchange, and then pushed down ROX's bottom lane inhibitor with the remaining four players!

Finally, in the 25-minute team fight around the Baron, QG didn't need to use any special tricks. Everyone just played steadily and easily achieved a one-for-five exchange. The remaining four then pushed the game to a draw!

In the final team fight, Chen Dongqing managed to get 8 kills, achieving a godlike status.

"Two to one!" Wawa roared wildly, his voice distorted and twisted, yet his excitement was palpable. "Let's all congratulate QG on winning this crucial match!"

Two to one!

This score kept replaying in the minds of the three commentators and countless fans!

"I can't believe my eyes!" Miller was completely dazed, his voice trembling. "Just one more game! Just one more game! Just one more game, and QG will win the first World Championship in LPL history!"

The championship we've been waiting for for so long is finally coming!

Having weathered last year's darkest moments, the entire LPL region has been forging ahead through darkness for a full year.

Because of that painful experience, even the fans were afraid. Even after winning the MSI championship, they didn't dare to boast. Even after defeating two Korean teams 3-0, the fans lacked confidence in the finals.

But now, with the championship truly within reach, everyone seems to have woken up from a dream.

Who says we can't win? Are we LPL teams any worse than anyone else?

Meanwhile, in the LPL live stream room, a dense barrage of comments flooded in, even obscuring the view!

Go QG!

【come on! 】

Please let us win 3-1!

[Don't worry, there's still one more game!]

[If you're not in a hurry now, when will you be? QG, charge!]

[Slaughter all LCK teams: 8/9!]

At this moment, many viewers turned down the barrage density and then saw the QG members hugging tightly in the picture!

"Two to one!"

Among the QG crowd, someone's voice was unusually loud, so loud that it couldn't even be drowned out by the thunderous cheers of the audience.

"Chen Dongqing, you were absolutely amazing today!" Xiangguo couldn't help but admire him.

As the jungler who oversees all four lanes, Xiangguo clearly understands the immense pressure Chen Dongqing is under today.

In these three games, Smeb and Peanut's synergy never stopped, with the top lane consistently taking on two opponents at once.

However, Chen Dongqing's performance in these three games was quite outstanding. In the third game, he even suppressed two opponents by himself!

Before the finals, there might still be debate about who is the world's best top laner.

But now, there is no doubt about it!

Regardless of whether Ilex wins or loses today's match, he beats Smeb!

Chen Dongqing felt as if he were floating in the sky, his heart pounding. He laughed loudly and said, "Of course!"

In all three games, he picked the top laner as the second pick, so he was expected to carry the game.

"Hey hey hey, let's go back, let's go back!" Uzi, his face flushed, pushed his teammates back. "It's the last game, let's quickly discuss it!"

Although it was only the fourth game, Uzi already had a feeling that they were really going to win!

Everyone quickly walked back to the backstage passage. The ROX team was walking not far ahead, and only their backs could be seen, so their expressions could not be seen.

But even from their backs, the ROX team members were walking hurriedly, clearly quite anxious.

After walking through the first section of the passage and turning a corner, you'll see everyone from the QG lounge already waiting to greet you.

"Holy crap, a tree!" Linko immediately rushed over and grabbed Chen Dongqing, "What's wrong with you? Did you take performance-enhancing drugs?"

Chen Dongqing tilted her head: "What, you're not happy that it's too C?"

"That would be wonderful!" Linko exclaimed excitedly. "Winning the fourth round, is that alright?"

"I can't guarantee that, hahaha."

Meanwhile, Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong were whispering to each other. Lin Weixiang gave Liu Qingsong a thumbs up for his flash-R combo, while Liu Qingsong just snorted and didn't say a word.

But Liu Qingsong's slightly trembling right hand betrayed his excitement and nervousness.

"Alright, come in and let's discuss this." Linko immediately walked to the lounge, opening the door first, and said anxiously, "It's the last round, you have to hold your breath and not let up!"

At that moment, the MVP screen for the current game was playing on the TV in the lounge.

Jayce with an 8-0-7 score, 32.43% damage share, and a 191% damage conversion rate—each statistic is astonishing.

But the most astonishing number is the one below.

Number of MVPs: 9

Later, on the other side, is the ROX lounge.

Smeb also saw this impressive data and felt a slight bitterness in his heart.

Seeing the terrifying stats achieved by the opponent as soon as they picked Jayce, Smeb had to admit that ilex's Jayce was even stronger than he had expected.

This guy definitely didn't go all out in the practice match!

Head coach Nofe stood in front of the players and said calmly, "Now is not the time to give up, is it?"

All the ROX members looked up.

"Of course not," Peanut said seriously. "It's just one point behind! We can just treat it as two best-of-one games!"

Peanut believes his performance in today's match was no less than that of his opponent mlxg, and he is confident that the next two games will be the same!

"What about Jinghao?" Nofe asked again.

"Of course not!" Smeb immediately shouted, "We must win the next game!"

Smeb has never been afraid of top lane matchups; this confidence comes from his professional career over the past two years.

Even if his opponent gets the MVP by stepping on his head, he will only think about getting revenge in the next game. That's what he did after the first game.

Nofe nodded in satisfaction. The biggest advantage of his players was that he didn't need to worry about their mentality.

He said, "Then let's forget about the score! Let's focus on our own game! Win both BO1s, and victory will be ours!"

At this moment, the staff also came over; they came to inquire about ROX's side selection for the fourth game.

This seemingly simple question has put ROX in a dilemma.

The fourth game exposed too many problems.

Besides the original female police officer, Lucian, and Miss Fortune.

There are also Jayce and Kled to deal with.

QG has been favoring the red buff in this round of the World Championship, and given the idea of ​​not letting their opponents have their way, they should also choose red.

But if we choose red, we won't have enough ban slots.

"So, does that mean we can only choose blue?" Nofe muttered to himself.

During the halftime break in the LPL live stream, the three commentators were excitedly discussing the previous game.

With a 2-1 lead, both Lu Wei and PDD had happy smiles on their faces.

Luwei bluntly stated, "Didn't I say it from the start? Smeb has no chance against Shu Ge! In the final game, let's still watch Shu Ge put on a show. I think the score will be three to one!"

PDD, standing beside him, also expressed his approval, saying that Gian and Suneo had stood on the same side today.

Before they could chat for long, the three of them heard in their headsets that the draft phase of the match was about to begin. Changmao quickly ended the conversation and showed the screen to the commentators.

At that moment, the BP screen switched in, and the doll's voice quickly rang out!

"Welcome back to the finals of the 2016 World Championship!" Wawa exclaimed happily. "QG is currently leading 2-1, just one step away from the championship! We can see that the ban/pick phase has begun, let's take a look at the ban choices of both sides!"

Guan Daxiao immediately looked at the screen and said, "ROX, who have the right to choose sides, chose the blue side in the fourth game and banned Kled in the first round. They probably chose the blue side specifically for this ban!"

Kled is indeed a key player for ROX. He can counter Banner of Command in the mid lane and play against champions that Smeb excels at, such as Jayce, Kennen, and Rumble in the top lane. If they are not banned, the draft is impossible, so he is prioritized over Caitlyn!

On the other side, QG also made a swift decision, quickly banning Poppy.

Once again on the red side, the QG players were quite relaxed.

Give Tree Brother a Counter slot, and they'll be at ease!

In this game, both top laners were treasures of their teams; one always picked a hero last, and the other always had a jungler to help him.

On their second move, ROX honestly banned Caitlyn, while QG happily banned Syndra instead.

Then, ROX made their final move by pressing Zyra.

Instead of pressing Miss Fortune, they pressed Zyra directly because ROX understood that after picking Zyra in the last game, their ability to initiate was too weak, and they didn't even have any way to turn the tide when they were at a disadvantage. This game, they planned to try a different approach.

"No Lucian banned?" Banbazi asked, somewhat surprised. "Looks like they're not planning to pick Jayce?"

ROX's thinking isn't hard to guess. After all, Lucian is a pick specifically designed to counter Jayce, and releasing this move is tantamount to completely giving up on picking Jayce.

Of course, they must also have ways to counter Jayce, and they are not afraid of QG picking Jayce, which is why they made this choice.

After a moment's thought, banbazi ultimately banned Olaf, and the hero selection phase began.

ROX picked Karma as their first pick, essentially using a pick to prevent QG's bot lane from getting Karma and exerting excessive pressure. However, their strategy was clear: Karma could only be played in the mid lane.

QG will have to make a slight change this time. With Zyra and Karma gone, they've decided to take the brutality of the bot lane to another level.

"Are you really going to choose?" Chen Dongqing asked over the voice message.

"Choose," Liu Qingsong said calmly. "What are you afraid of?"

Thresh, the Chain Warden.

Plus Malzahar.

Karma's position on the other side is still uncertain, and judging from their current stance, they will most likely wait until the very last two moves to make their decision.

So QG didn't hold back and locked out both their mid and support players!

Thresh is Liu Qingsong's specialty. Even with Zyra banned, he is confident he can fight against any support the opposing team picks.

Needless to say, Malzahar in the mid lane against Karma won both of the first two games.

Following that, ROX also selected heroes, successively choosing Lee Sin and Ashe, still focusing on enhancing their ability to seize opportunities. Aggressive early-game fights and small-scale skirmishes are what they excel at.

Immediately afterwards, QG made their third and fourth picks.

For their third pick, they first chose a reefer to counter Lee Sin, and then added AD attributes to the mid and jungle to clear cannon minions.

Then, on the fourth move, Uzi moved the mouse to lock an AD for himself.

Spear of Vengeance!

Kalista and Thresh together form the Shadow Isles combo, one of the strongest laning combinations!

In this version that champions bottom lane dominance, skate shoes definitely deserve a spot.

Uzi's Kalista proficiency isn't top-tier, but that's in comparison to his Caitlyn, Lucian, Vayne, and other champions.

Compared to other AD players, his Kalista is still top-notch.

Seeing QG's bot lane picks a laning combination that's incredibly bloody, many spectators started cheering, feeling that this bot lane duel shouldn't be bad!

But they didn't know that this was just an appetizer.

Now it's ROX's turn to finalize their lineup. After much deliberation, they finally picked Braum to pair with Ashe, forming a double Glacial composition to counter the Shadow Isles. This move is called "Fighting for their homeland."

Then, they made their choice of superiors very quickly!

Riven, the Exile!

Riven has always been one of Smeb's most confident champions.

When he first debuted in Season 4, he used Riven to completely dominate the entire SKT team!

Even during last year's S5 World Championship Finals, Smeb confidently picked Riven!

And the key point is that this hero is not afraid of Jayce, making him the best card ROX can currently play!

This is also Smeb's challenge to Chen Dongqing.

I've released your Fiora.

Fiora vs. Riven has been a classic matchup since the game's inception.

I've already picked Riven, do you dare pick Fiora?

Of course I dare!

Chen Dongqing would gladly accept any challenge from the opposing Fiora at any time.

Fiora, locked on!

The top laners' choices were like Kennen unleashing his ultimate to wipe out five people, like Gangplank's critical strike barrels hitting four, like Orianna, Twitch, and Rakan winning an impossible team fight! Instantly, a thunderous roar erupted in the arena!

The scale of the event was so immense that even the censorship of the live stream couldn't erase its presence; it was clearly transmitted to live streaming rooms around the world!

Everyone straightened their backs, their eyes gleaming with excitement; they all knew the big one was coming!

【Here it comes!】

[I'm so moved! Tree Bro has never picked Fiora in the entire World Championship, but he finally got her today!]

Is this a strategy to win the championship using a star player?

[You just taught Smeb how to play Jayce, and now you're teaching him how to play Fiora, right?]

[Brother Tree, you are truly heinous; your talent without virtue is undeniable!]

Don't jinx it!

[Just trust Brother Shu! QG, charge!]

The lineups for both sides are now finalized!

Blue side ROX: Top lane Riven, Jungle Lee Sin, Mid lane Karma, Bot lane Ashe and Braum.

Red team QG: Top lane Fiora, Jungle Rek'Sai, Mid lane Malzahar, Bot lane Kalista and Thresh.

"Are you going to bring Purify?" GorillA asked his partner. "If you bring Purify, I'll bring Weakness."

"No," Pray said without hesitation. "You take Ignite. Now is not the time to back down."

Nofe watched and listened to his teammates chatting, and he knew that he didn't need to worry about them when it came to the game.

So he thought for a moment, and finally said, "Kids, shouldn't we be able to go on stage one more time?"

"Ha, definitely! Lu Zhe!" Peanut exclaimed. "Our lineup is pretty good this game!"

"That's good." Nofe placed his hands on Peanut and Smeb's shoulders. "This round depends on you two."

Nofe felt a little heavy-hearted as he spoke.

With the game at this point, there's not much more he can do as a coach.

From now on, we can only leave it to fate and the team members.

Meanwhile, on the other side, in the players' seats...

Banbazi had already placed his hand on the earphone, preparing to take it off to shake hands.

He turned his head and saw the Summoner's Cup in the center of the stage.

He suddenly smiled and said, "Brothers, I hope that next time I go on stage, it'll be to lift the trophy, okay?"

"Don't worry!" The QG team was united in their determination, with Doinb even jokingly adding, "Hurry back and wash your hands thoroughly!"

Banbazi then took off his headphones and walked to the center of the stage. The camera focused on both coaches before slowly zooming out.

The game has entered the loading phase.

At this moment, the QG members also felt a little sentimental.

The thought that they were only one step away from the championship filled them with excitement.

"Alright, the fourth game is about to begin!" Wawa shouted loudly, "Let's cheer for QG! They only need one more step to be crowned the champions of 2016!"

"Go QG!" even the university's top coach joked, "Let's lend QG our energy!"

Millions of viewers across the country were watching intently, all placing their hopes on the five contestants.

Everyone had a strange feeling.

If QG wants to win the championship, now is the only time!

Amidst much anticipation, the game screen for the fourth match officially switched to the beginning!

As soon as the match started, Xiangguo urged in the voice chat, "Defend the top half of the map, don't let the enemy invade!"

ROX often opts for a level 1 invasion; they did it in the first game, especially since they also got a double Glacial and Karma in this game.

Although Xiangguo's plan for this game was to farm from top to bottom and gank the bottom lane directly, he was still unwilling to give up the top half of the map, because that would make it too difficult for Chen Dongqing to play.

However, ROX didn't come this time, perhaps because they realized they couldn't use the same tactic twice, so the two sides started peacefully.

"Okay, we can see that both junglers started in a mirror match, both choosing to start with red buff. Xiangguo ganked bot, and Xiaohua ganked top!"

"When QG picked the Kalista and Thresh combination, it was basically confirmed that they would need to farm down the lane to help," Miller analyzed with his arms crossed. "The main problem now is whether Maokai in the top lane can withstand the pressure from ROX. After all, Fiora is more effective against Riven in the late game."

At this moment, the minions had already spawned. Chen Dongqing was still playing quite rationally in the laning phase. Although Fiora had an advantage at level one and should have gone up to steal health, he didn't have a jungler at the moment, so maintaining his health and avoiding being tower-dived was the right thing to do.

His approach was clearly sound; he maintained a fairly healthy health level until the level 3 minions reached the tower.

Under normal circumstances, he definitely wouldn't die.

However, ROX is not a normal team.

ROX chose Karma for mid lane in this game. This hero doesn't have any other advantages when playing mid lane, except for her fast wave clear!

Moreover, Kuro was even more ruthless in the early laning phase, hitting six minions with an RQ at the start, and then using his Q skill as soon as it was available, as if mana was worthless!

Finally, after pushing the third wave of minions into the tower, his mana bar was empty.

Kuro quickly returned to the city, bought an amplification tome, and headed straight for the Banner of Command.

Meanwhile, the top lane minions pushed into the tower.

Clearly, this was a strategy that ROX had planned from the very beginning!

The teleportation light came on, and ROX launched a massive three-on-one attack!

The dry one is ilex!

Chen Dongqing felt utterly helpless in this situation.

He's not the protagonist of a novel, capable of killing three people under the tower with a flash of sword energy; he's just an ordinary cheater.

Faced with the three men's encirclement, he could only try to operate the device.

Smeb was naturally the first to tank the tower. The moment Riven landed a basic attack on Fiora, Karma's W tethered her, followed by Lee Sin's W and an AE!

Chen Dongqing calmly observed the situation before him. Riven QAQA, Karma's W cast bar was also nearing its end.

Chen Dongqing decisively released his W [Laurent's Eye Blade], which perfectly blocked Karma's second stun with his W, while simultaneously unleashing a sword aura towards Riven who was tanking the tower!

But Smeb reacted quickly. Riven used EW to dodge the sword energy while stunning Fiora, and then used three Qs to continuously control her. During this time, Karma immediately used RQ to hit her!

Peanut's Lee Sin seized the opportunity, using Q followed by a basic attack and then the second Q to easily secure the kill!

After the kill, Karma used her E to shield and speed up, easily walking out of the tower with low health.

"Ah, there's really not much you can do about it." Miller couldn't help but shake his head. "Sometimes professional teams have to make sacrifices and trades. When Xiangguo goes down, the top lane will inevitably face some pressure, but ROX is putting in an exceptionally lot of pressure this game!"

This three-man gank tactic basically means the mid laner drags the enemy top laner down with them.

After all, losing minions and teleport to force a top lane dive, and only getting one assist, is a huge loss for a mid laner.

Fortunately, ROX's mid laner is Karma, so they can afford this loss.

Chen Dongqing had no choice but to teleport back online and get a few kills from the remaining minions. Smeb didn't get any kills in this wave, which was acceptable to him.

Not long after, the camera quickly switched to the bottom lane.

Xiangguo then launched his first gank, and his target was the two Xuanming Elders in the bottom lane!

Upon receiving the instruction, Liu Qingsong's Thresh decisively threw the ward backward, then flashed forward and used his E to reverse the attack, bringing both of them back. He then swung his scythe and threw it far away!

Seeing that the excavator had arrived, Pray watched Thresh's hook intently!

Every professional player who has made it this far is incredibly talented, which is why he could clearly see the trajectory of Thresh's hook.

Well, it wasn't a hook that predicted a flash, it was a downward movement that was predicted.

And I happened to be going down!

Pray was immediately alarmed, realizing that he couldn't dodge the hook by simply moving around.

With no other option, he decisively pressed F, and a golden light flashed, allowing Hanbing to escape with her life!

Seeing that he hadn't succeeded, Xiangguo wasn't in a hurry. He quickly turned the excavator around and left, making the most of his time to return to the city to farm jungle monsters and level up.

In a final match like this, not a single second can be wasted!

Immediately after, Xiangguo returned to base, upgraded his green jungle item, first placed a ward for Chen Dongqing in the top half of the map, then helped with a counter-gank, before returning to farm downhill.

Six minutes quickly passed.

It was the time for the mid laner to reach level six, and Xiangguo wanted to repeat the same strategy, using Malzahar's ultimate to gank the mid lane. However, this time ROX's players were clearly prepared. Xiangguo's Rek'Sai crouched down and came to the bottom river, where he saw ripples appearing in the darkness.

"The enemy Lee Sin is here too." Xiangguo pinged the signal twice, and after thinking about it, he simply chose to give up.

This wave won't be easy to kill.

Xiangguo thought for a moment, then used his excavator to place a ward in the F4 area of ​​the lower half of the enemy's map.

The enemy Lee Sin has no way to clear wards, so this fake ward can detect Lee Sin's position.

Immediately afterwards, Xiangguo returned to the jungle to farm jungle camps. In the vision he had just set up, it was clear that after Lee Sin cleared the F4 camps, he started to move down. This was the time when the red buff was spawning, and Lee Sin was obviously going to deal with the red buff.

The camera switched to the top lane, where Chen Dongqing observed the situation. He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that this top laner was someone he could make a move on.

The enemy Riven only got one assist at the start, which was only 100 gold. The difference between the two top laners was not significant, except that he had a Long Sword and a Doran's Blade, while the enemy had two Doran's Blades.

However, he lost some experience at the start, so he needs to level up to six first.

Seeing this, Chen Dongqing, a level 5 Fiora, boldly stepped forward to face the level 6 Riven. He held onto his W and Flash, showing no fear. The two sides traded blows, and Chen Dongqing carefully last-hit the cannon minion. After that, he also reached level 6.

Before level 7, there is no experience gap between the top laners of both sides, so now is the opportunity!

Upon seeing this, Chen Dongqing acted decisively without hesitation!

Fiora stabs Riven with her sword, then uses her A and E combo to instantly stack Fervor to 6 stacks!

Meanwhile, Smeb decisively drew his sword to fight back, and Riven immediately unleashed an AWQA combo!

As a fellow Fiora master, Smeb knew that the more skilled a Fiora was, the more easily her W could be used to land a hit.

To deal with this kind of person, you should use your control skills right at the start of the game; this will often give you an advantage!

After W stunned him, Smeb took the opportunity to start pulling QA!

Meanwhile, Chen Dongqing also began to operate, with Fiora casting her ultimate skill and then actively moving to the diagonal position to activate [Unrivaled Challenge]!

Four openings appeared. Chen Dongqing stood in the corner, used A followed by a small movement and then E to reset his basic attack, instantly breaking through two openings. Then he used Q to break through all three!

With lightning speed, three breakthroughs were achieved, and the healing array was just one step away!

Smeb, of course, didn't give her a chance. Riven immediately moved her position, not giving Fiora a chance to expose her last weakness.

Just as Chen Dongqing was considering whether to use A Flash to attack the fourth enemy, an unexpected event occurred.

A Lee Sin suddenly appeared in the river vision and was walking towards the top lane!

Weren't you supposed to be posting in the red? Why are you here?

Chen Dongqing frowned slightly, feeling somewhat annoyed.

He was really caught off guard this time. Fiora's burst damage is limited. Even if he manages to flash and kill the fourth Riven, he definitely won't be able to kill her before Lee Sin arrives to support.

Let's get out of here!

Chen Dongqing tried to escape, but the other side was determined to kill him. Riven quickly closed in and unleashed a triple Q!

Chen Dongqing turned around and used W to block, but Riven dodged the sword energy with E.

Before he could even move, Lee Sin had already caught up, using two E attacks to slow him down!

At point-blank range, Chen Dongqing clearly saw the Blind Monk's right hand extend – it was the movement of the Heavenly Sound Wave!

Without saying a word, Chen Dongqing used his Q movement skill to narrowly miss Tianyinbo!

This scene terrified all the viewers!

How could you dodge that?

But it was all meaningless. The next moment, Riven's ultimate brought a sword aura. Smeb's hand speed was explosive. He seized the opportunity when Fiora couldn't use Flash during her Q skill and directly R-Flash-A, taking down Fiora again with one strike!

"Damn it!" Chen Dongqing couldn't help but curse, then said, "Riven didn't use Flash!"

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do." Xiangguo couldn't help but shake his head. "He must have seen the ward I placed, so he deliberately went down to trick us, and then grabbed us."

At this point, Xiangguo felt a little uncomfortable.

If he hadn't placed that ward, the top lane might not have fought this wave.

But can you say there was a problem with his ward placement? Obviously not. At most, the opponent just had a higher stack count, so you can only blame the opponent for playing too well.

Xiangguo could only try to mitigate the damage. His Rek'Sai, who had just cleared his own red buff, entered ROX's jungle and stole the red buff that Peanut hadn't taken.

Then, immediately afterward, he grabbed it!

With the jungler not in the bot lane, he doesn't think ROX's bot lane has the right to farm lanes!

The excavator attacked from behind, and although ROX was prepared, they were doomed!

The excavator drilled a hole and then flashed overhead, knocking the enemy Ashe away! Liu Qingsong followed up with a hook, but it was blocked by Braum's shield as he leaped into the air!

But that doesn't make much sense!

Uzi Kalista decisively flashed forward, quickly stacking spears with AQA, and with the help of the Rek'Sai's damage, he directly brought Ashe to low health. Then he casually auto-attacked Braum, and then pulled out his spear to finish off Ashe while slowing Braum!

Immediately afterwards, Liu Qingsong used his E to put Braum back, and the three of them focused their fire on Braum, chasing him all the way into the tower. Finally, Uzi used his E again to secure a double kill!

"Double kill!"

The double kill announcement lit up, and QG finally brought the kill score back to 2v2!

The fans in the audience finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Fiora get caught and killed twice in a row, they were starting to feel a little discouraged, but fortunately, the bot lane's Bottom Lane made a comeback.

In this way, the rhythm was maintained.

"Ouch, that's it." The two veterans from the ROX players' bench sighed simultaneously, "Thresh and Rek'Sai's crowd control is too reliable, it's hard for us to escape."

"It's alright, it's alright." Peanut, with a calmness beyond his years, said, "Top lane should be safe now, I'll come to bot lane to help you guys right away."

"Okay." Pray thought for a moment and said, "We'll push the minion wave after we go online. You can come when the minion wave pushes back. By then I'll be level six and can help you keep the enemy in place. Kalista doesn't have Flash, and Thresh's Flash isn't ready either."

Korean teams are known for their strong discipline and team synergy. Their junglers often combine the minion wave movement with their actions one or two minutes into the game.

Peanut nodded and went back to the jungle to farm. Although he lost a red buff, he was still able to reach level six after clearing out the blue buff area.

After reaching level six, Peanut returned to base to buy some equipment, and then headed straight to the bottom lane!

When he reached the bottom lane, the minion wave was pushed back by Uzi!

Everything was so perfect!

"Come on! Stop them!" The Blind Monk attacked from the side, immediately exposing himself to the vision set up by Liu Qingsong, but they couldn't stop ROX's pursuit at all!

Ashe used her ultimate to rush towards Kalista. Liu Qingsong moved to block the ultimate, but he was stunned himself. Then Braum used his ultimate to flash in and knocked up Braum while slowing down Kalista at a distance!

Peanut seized the opportunity and used Q to hit the back of the Kalista. At that moment, Uzi jumped back and landed right on Lee Sin's Q!

Lee Sin's second Q quickly closed in, and just then, Liu Qingsong, who had just woken up from his control, also launched a hook!

The direction of this hook is exactly towards our own AD carry!

Click!

A sickeningly sweet sound rang out as the Lee Sin had just used his Q to get close to Kalista when Thresh hooked him!

And just then, a hole suddenly appeared in the bushes, and Xiangguo's excavator was actually ganking in the bottom lane!

The bottom lane instantly turned into a 3v3 situation!

Peanut reacted quickly. Seeing that the skateboard had already jumped away and the excavator was drilling through the hole, he quickly adapted, using a ward hop to catch up with the skateboard, and then using an R-flash to forcefully kick it back! Moreover, his angle was adjusted so that he could hit the nearby excavator and send it flying!

Kick them both!

Immediately afterwards, ROX's bot lane duo followed up with damage, instantly crippling Uzi!

Knowing he was doomed, Uzi forced himself to heal and stay alive. Before dying, he unleashed a burst of AQE combo on Lee Sin, reducing Lee Sin to half health before finally passing away.

Meanwhile, Xiangguo took over the authority that Uzi handed over before his death, and used the excavator to lift up the Lee Sin and take him down in one combo!

"But it seems Liu Qingsong can't escape either! The Twin Polar Regions' ability to keep people here is too strong!"

Thresh, who was the first target to be controlled, is now almost out of health, even though he wasn't focused on afterward!

Seeing this situation, Xiangguo had no choice but to give up. He turned around, sold the auxiliary equipment, and left!

"Doublie kill!"

Another double kill, this time by Pray, greatly accelerating Ashe's development!

Below the stage, ROX's red sea of ​​energy finally began to surge, and countless fans were extremely excited and happy for this 3V3 victory!

Just then, a howling sound suddenly rang out from the scene!

That sound comes from the excavator's ultimate skill, [Void Charge]!

Spicy Pot isn't going to let this go so easily!

This version of the excavator's ultimate ability is still a map control skill, allowing it to fly directly to the location of a cave!

His target this time was a cave he had left in the enemy jungle when he was stealing the red buff!

This cave is very close to the middle path!

"We can gank mid, hold on for a bit!" Xiangguo urged anxiously in the voice chat, and Doinb responded immediately. Malzahar chased forward first, and then waited for the Excavator to get close before flashing and using his ultimate to hold it down!

The excavator drilled again and got closer, and then the two used a combo to kill Karma on the spot!

The cheers from ROX fans came to an abrupt halt; it was another two-for-two trade!

Eight minutes have passed, and the kill score is now tied at 4-4 – it's incredibly bloody!

Meanwhile, on the top lane, Chen Dongqing watched as his teammates did their best to stabilize the situation, and he couldn't help but feel a little serious.

He can't be the one who drags us down.

He looked at Riven across from him, a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
