Professional players always take games like League of Legends to the next level.
Most of the time, victory is not because you alone had awesome control of your champion, but because of the brothers who had your back while you activated your ulti to go fight against the enemy!
The champion Kennen is strong in initiating a team fight. Even if you try to take precautions against him, when he activates his ulti and comes towards you like an electricity bomb, you really can’t do anything much against him...
Bai Feng obviously knew this fact, hence why he relayed for Hao Yue to continue to camp behind when he reached level six, waiting for Yu Luocheng’s Kennen to forcefully initiate a fight.
Yu Luocheng was the kind that if he already activated his ulti, he would go all in either way. Even though he saw Riven coming, he would still stubbornly stand his ground.
Activating his ulti, he managed to catch Taric and Riven who were charging in.
Riven also immediately activated her ulti and unleashed her own set of skills right in Yu Loucheng’s face!
Ha!!
A wave of energy swept forward, heading straight for the electric Yordle’s head. Yu Luocheng didn’t dare to show off anymore, hurriedly using his Flash to narrowly escape that blow from Riven that was sure to have taken his life!
“D*mn it, Riven’s burst is also d*mn high!” said Yu Luocheng, cold sweat dripping down his face as he looked at his very low health bar.
At level six, Riven’s burst damage was incomparable to any others. He was already left with so little health after taking just a few hits from her.
Yu Luocheng’s objective had been reached, and the rest would depend on the rest of his teammates!
Suddenly, Elise jumped out from the bush and landed near Riven who had been previously stunned by Kennen’s ulti. She immediately followed up with Cocoon to stun Taric who was about to run away.
Before her skill landed, Wu Sen’s Cassiopeia burst forward from the river, blasting them with her Petrifying Gaze.
The continous CC skills thrown gave Riven and Taric no chance to move at all. The three champions who followed after made quick work of them, easily taking the two kills!
As the saying goes, since you can play well, might as well put on a show while you’re at it.
Yu Luocheng had already anticipated that Riven would be camping behind the turret, and it was all calculated. After all, he had three brothers who had his back.
Of course, this stunt cut a little too close for comfort. If he didn’t have Flash, then his life would have been forfeited!
Team Skycrown held a fast pace as usual. They immediately pushed the lane once they got the kill, wanting to demolish the enemy’s turret as quickly as possible.
After taking down the turret, the four of them cut through the jungle through the blue buff area with the intention of getting Dragon.
“Team Skycrown has taken the turret, and now it looks like they intend to also take the Dragon. If they get Dragon, then they will have a gold lead of three thousand... but will Team Revelation let them have the Dragon that easily? Gragas is already rushing towards their direction,” said Xi Ling as she watched the scene.
Gragas was at top condition, this champion’s CC is disgusting and his burst damage is terrifying. In comparison, Team Skycrown’s condition was not that great, especially Kennen. He refused to recall back to base even with such little health left. One ulti from Gragas would probably be enough to kill him.
Under the current circumstances, Team Skycrown still wanted to forcefully take the Dragon?
Gragas’ beer belly shook as he walked from the direction of the blue buff towards the Dragon Pit. Just as he walked into the lane and headed past the blue buff to the river, a web suddenly came from the other side of the wall. It stunned Gragas who had been intending to stop Team Skycrown from taking the Dragon!
Bao Jun exclaimed in excitement, “Beautiful! It looks like Team Skycrown had no intention of taking the Dragon, the four of them were actually lying in wait for Gragas behind this wall!”
The eyes of the other professional players watching the match lit up at this moment...
With the Fog Of War in effect, the wall after the blue buff in the river was indeed a blind spot. Gragas assumed that his opponents were taking Dragon and headed towards the river. Who knew that the four of them were actually hiding in his blind spot and waiting for him?
With Elise’s stun, the other three easily followed up with their own skills. Gragas didn’t even have time to do anything and was instantly killed!
“Gragas’ death this time once again shows us that vision is life! But Team Skycrown making use of this blind spot is really interesting too, I’m afraid that even more cautious professional players would also walk into this trap... sigh. With Gragas dead like this, Team Skycrown can really take Dragon without any worries!”
***
“One, if it was you, would you have realized it?” asked Team Beijing’s Jungler.
One shook his head.
Team Skycrown using this blind spot was really unexpected and interesting, because just three seconds ago, their opponent still had a ward in the Dragon Pit.
The ward only had three seconds left, and yet Kennen had used his Sweeping Lens to sweep it out, but not destroy it...
After three seconds, Team Skycrown had stopped hitting Dragon and instead ran and hid behind that wall, watching as Gragas walked from the direction of their own ward.
In other words, from Gragas’ point of view, he already saw Team Skycrown hitting Dragon, and once the vision was gone after three seconds, he assumed that they were still there hitting Dragon.
So, of course there was nothing stopping him from walking over without worry. No one knew that the four of them had changed their goal the moment vision was gone...
Team Skycrown’s unified thinking was amazingly terrifying! What other team would think of using their opponent’s rapidly diminishing vision to create an illusion like this?
One also pondered on this, if he were on Gragas just now, he would also have fallen for this trick. Of course, he would have at least thrown out a Q and R before he died, significantly bringing down their health so that they wouldn’t’ be able to take Dragon.
With a three thousand gold lead in the first ten minutes, Team Skycrown then began to shave off the turret at the middle lane.
Cassiopeia, Elise, Kennen, and Drave were all ranged champions. The moment the minion wave pushed in, they could easily attack the turret back and forth.
“Drag it out and hold out,” instructed Bai Feng, glancing at the situation at the middle lane.
Their Mid is a Gragas, and his wave clear capabilities were good. As long as they could clear the wave fast enough, their opponents would have a hard time attacking the turret. Bai Feng had already pushed his own wave to their opponent’s turret. If they could hold out at the middle lane, then they would gain the advantage.
“There’s not much left on the turret,” said Hao Yue.
“I’ll be there soon,” replied Bai Feng, pushing the wave further.
Leaving the minions to finish off the turret, he hurriedly rushed to the middle lane. Gragas, Riven, and Taric were all defending the middle lane, while Team Skycrown was still maintaining their position and pushing the lane.
Seeing that the turret didn’t have much health left, Hao Yue and the others didn’t bother to struggle anymore, deciding to give it up as they regrouped to retreat to the inner turret.
At this moment, an ugly figure suddenly emerged from the small path beside the lane between the outer and inner turret. The figure was holding his huge magical club high up in the air, his bloodlust-filled eyes trained on the three champions under the turret!
“Sh*t, our retreat has been cut off!” exclaimed Hao Ye as he watched the menacing troll appear, his face paling.
It was their opponent’s Top!
The appearance of Trundle really threw them into a panic. The outer turret only had a little health left, it would be gone with just a few pokes. And right at this moment, a terrifying monster appeared.
They had four champions pressuring and pushing the lane from the front, and a monster was at their backs!
Roar!
A pillar of ice shot out from the ground, and Da Luo was smart as he didn’t immediately charge it, but used his skill to block off Riven and Taric’s path.
Ignoring Gragas, Da Luo chose to charge at Riven instead.
Their opponent’s Mid Gragas was also good, launching his ulti at a good time to break up the formation that Team Skycrown was preparing for an all out attack...
Unfortunately, the ulti didn’t blow up Yu Luocheng’s Kennen, who had purposely walked in an arc to avoid it.
“Ahhhh!!”
Electrical Surge, Lightning Rush, and Kennen activated his ulti as he rushed into Taric’s and Riven’s face!
Taric and Riven had already used their Summoner Skills in the previous fight, and their way back was cut off by the pillar of ice summoned by Trundle. As they watched Kennen rushing in, it felt like all they could do was to give in to fate...
Kennen’s ulti finished up with a stun, and with the others rushing into the fray, Riven and Taric were both killed!
After killing the two of them, they pushed on to the second turret. Bai Feng was rushing over, but their base had already been beaten down to this extent. Shyvanna had also been beaten to hell by Da Luo, and with only a Giant’s Belt and Chain Vest, Shyvanna didn’t dare to do much.
They had to give up this turret.
The importance of the two turrets in the middle lane doesn’t have to be emphasized. With the two thousand gold from bringing them down, plus the gold earned from the two kills, Team Skycrown had increased the gap by at least five thousand in an instant!
The game was only at the twelve-minute minute, and Team Skycrown already had a gold lead of five thousand. Everyone... including Yu Luocheng as a Support, already had one finished item in their inventory.
Top had Sunfire Cape and Mercury’s Treads, Mid had Athena’s Unholy Grail and Sorcerer’s Shoes, Jungler had Sorcerer’s Shoes and Liandry’s Torment, ADC had Bloodthirster and Berserker’s Greaves, and Support had Talisman of Ascension and Sightstone!
In comparison, other than Bai Feng’s Lucian having Trinity Force, the other members of Team Revelation still didn’t have enough to complete their items.
The huge difference in gold at this early stage had left all the professional players in disbelief!
You guys... were you guys really intending for Team Revelation to surrender at twenty?!
At thirteen minutes, Team Revelation’s blue buff was taken by Team Skycrown. This blue buff was extremely important for Gragas, which would affect his subsequent development in the game.
At fifteen minutes, Dragon had respawned. Team Revelation didn’t even dare to think about contesting it, and immediately just let it go.
In a short time, the gold difference had increased to six thousand.
Team Skycrown’s pace was so fast that it was hard to keep up with. After taking Dragon, they saw that their opponent’s Top was farming at the top lane. So they immediately cut through the jungle area, heading directly for the bottom lane.
First, they let Trundle stand guard at the narrow pathway of the bottom lane’s inner area, blocking Riven who was intending to rush down from the middle lane to defend the base.
Trundle used his typical tactic of going back and forth, resulting in their opponent not even daring to stand under turret to defend, forcing them to give it up.
After Trundle made his rounds, the other four rushed in. This tactic once again allowed Team Revelation to realize why Team Skycrown had chosen this lineup.
Using Trundle to block their road back, followed up by the Support Kennen who used Talisman of Ascension to speed up to deliver his ulti that cannot be avoided, and Cassiopeia and Draven would follow closely behind to attack. With this assault, as long as there were people under the turret, all of them would die...
If you defend the turret, both will die.
If you don’t defend the turret, you are freely giving gold to your opponents!
