Moonlit: There will be no updates for tomorrow. I have 2 exams scheduled for tomorrow unlike today and the previous days where I only have 1. Time is tight >.<
Choosing Galio was meant to crush DT’s bot lane, but Lin Lan stole the ultimate and demolished them. The frustration from this turn of events is truly indescribable.
The selection of Sylas is just too brilliant, isn’t it?
After securing two kills, Lin Lan returned to the mid-lane. Qi Mo no longer dared to lane against him, only able to silently eat tower shots as Lin Lan pushed the minions forward.
But even in this situation, Lin Lan had no intention of letting him off the hook.
He, along with Xiao Shengjing, took down the Rift Herald and directly pressured the mid-lane. Qi Mo, under the tower, remained highly focused. When he saw the system notification indicating Xiao Shengjing placed the Rift Herald in the mid lane, his first instinct was to step back.
If kicked by Xiao Shengjing, combined with Lin Lan’s damage, he would surely meet his demise.
Retreating to a safe distance, he anticipated it. As expected, in an area outside his vision, Lee Sin’s Q1(Lee Sin)Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike: Sonic Wave: Lee Sin projects a discordant wave of sound to locate his enemies, dealing 55/80/105/130/155 (+115% bonus Attack Damage) physical damage to the first enemy it encounters, granting True Sight of the target. If Sonic Wave hits, Lee Sin can cast Resonating Strike for the next 3 seconds.
Resonating Strike: Lee Sin dashes to the enemy hit by Sonic Wave, dealing 55/80/105/130/155 (+115% bonus Attack Damage) to 110/160/210/260/310 (+230% bonus Attack Damage) physical damage based on the target’s missing Health. (Max: 400 Damage vs. Monsters). skill flew accurately and hit him squarely in the face.
Qi Mo’s eyes sharpened. This is what he had been waiting for!
He immediately pressed Flash, and Xiao Shengjing also used Flash. The speed of their actions was almost identical. Xiao Shengjing kicked him into the jungle with a forceful kick.
Qi Mo’s expression suddenly changed. Why isn’t Lee Sin following the usual pattern?
Everyone immediately thought it was Xiao Shengjing’s mistake. He kicked Galio away, but only Qi Mo knew that he hadn’t.
The moment Xiao Shengjing placed the Rift Herald, Qi Mo started calling for the jungler to be in position. If they forcefully dived under the tower this time, something would definitely go wrong.
However, Xiao Shengjing chose a clever angle, kicking him into the jungle. This move not only allowed him to coordinate with Lin Lan to kill Qi Mo but also avoided the tower’s defense. Additionally, it prevented Qi Mo’s jungler from interfering.
Isn’t this playing too smart?
The instant Qi Mo landed, Lin Lan swung the chain in his hand over the wall, binding him. The control is seamlessly connected. With a punch from both Lin Lan and Xiao Shengjing, they quickly killed him with their combined damage.
Qi Mo sighed bitterly. While Galio is powerful in providing support, his skills are too cumbersome. Faced with two ruthless opponents, he had no better strategy.
After his death, his jungler finally arrived on the frontline. But the situation had changed in the blink of an eye.
This wave was clearly their chance, so how did it get neutralized?
Just as the audience exclaimed their confusion, the director started a replay.
During the replay, it became clear that Xiao Shengjing and Lin Lan intended to dive under the tower. However, Xiao Shengjing realized that the enemy jungler might be nearby and signaled a warning.
Then the climax unfolded.
Lin Lan marked a peculiar point for Xiao Shengjing, who reciprocated by marking a point for him. In less than 2 seconds, they communicated and swiftly positioned themselves, initiating the incredible coordination seen in the previous play!
Any slight mistake or delay of a second would have undermined the effectiveness of their strategy!
This coordination???
If it weren’t a match, one would think it was scripted!
It’s even more exaggerated than a script—both players marked a point, and magically, they synchronized their actions?
The commentator, witnessing this scene, was jaw-dropped and exclaimed, “Ah, is this how jungle coordination is played now? Has it evolved to the point of kicking people out from under the tower and killing them? The defense tower must be saying, ‘Do you respect me?!'”
The live chat exploded with comments:
[Help, how did they communicate?]
[Defense tower: ????]
[Is this the kind of coordination only carbon-based life forms can come up with?]
[Hahaha, help, this is too funny!]
[I feel like both of their thought processes are so unique!]
[So weird, watching it again, still so weird!]
Lin Lan and Xiao Shengjing finished off the enemies and the Rift Herald coincidentally took down the tower. The two of them shamelessly cleared the wave, proceeding to ruthlessly invade the enemy jungle…
Joy belonged to Lin Lan and Xiao Shengjing; the opponents had nothing left!
The commentator checked the match time and was surprised to find it was only 12 minutes. “They managed to take down the mid-lane tower in just 12 minutes; now, Lader won’t be able to support it.”
Control over the mid-lane is crucial as it affects both the jungle and the side lanes.
The rapid loss of the mid-lane tower means that Xiao Shengjing can freely invade their jungle. ENG’s jungle can’t contest him because Lin Lan has control over the mid-lane, and without it, their mid-lane won’t arrive on the battlefield first.
ENG’s mid-lane has always been a stable presence, and the jungle has never faced such a disadvantageous situation. The maneuvering seems stiff and awkward.
At this moment, the audience also noticed ENG’s biggest weakness—they heavily rely on the mid-lane. Once the mid-lane is at a disadvantage, the other players seem lost in the game!
This is why Lin Lan insisted on facing Lader. Because Qi Mo is the soul of the entire ENG team. Once he’s taken down, their cohesion falls apart.
Qi Mo also realized that DT’s jungle-mid duo was targeting him. He clenched his teeth and endured, understanding that if he couldn’t hold on, ENG would indeed lose…
Eight minutes of maneuvering gained a decisive advantage. Lin Lan and Xiao Shengjing brazenly invaded ENG’s jungle, securing the second dragon.
How well are they farmed?
Qi Mo knew they were in his jungle, but he didn’t dare to support. He could only defend the mid-lane, catch up in farming, and patiently await an opportunity.
Even when ENG’s jungle saw it, they could only admit defeat. If Lin Lan and Xiao Shengjing each gave him a punch, he wouldn’t last until his teammates arrived, leading to a potential GG2Good Game.
The commentators could feel the joy from DT even through the screen. “Hahaha, this is truly joyful. DT has invaded the enemy jungle twice. Kiner took one round, and Shenn took the other. Now both of them are so fed, and ENG’s jungle doesn’t dare to contest them directly. They have to find other ways.”
“This one’s on me,” Qi Mo said with a bitter smile.
Once again, this match was splitting open from his side. His farm was relatively better, managing to stay relevant in the game. The hardest hit was their jungle, constantly under the threat of the two invaders.
When Lin Lan reached level 11, ENG’s jungle was still at level 9, leading to a complete breakdown in their mentality. “Are these two dogs? They don’t touch their own jungle, only mine!”
A casual remark, but it struck a chord with the listeners.
Qi Mo quickly surveyed the battlefield and suddenly noticed a lapse in DT’s strategy.
Both Xiao Shengjing and Lin Lan had their vision focused on ENG’s jungle, leaving their own jungle unattended…
Xu Shengwei, determined to regain the face lost in the previous match, played particularly hard in this game. They secured a slight advantage and even chipped away at two layers of the enemy turret.
ENG’s AD carry was fierce, but their support was slightly inexperienced. Thus, Xu Shengwei and Jiang Jin nearly dominated the lane.
While Xu Shengwei was relentlessly harassing the enemy AD carry with feathers, Xiao Shengjing suddenly remarked, “Their jungle is missing.”
Considering DT’s current vision, the enemy jungle couldn’t farm without avoiding those two wards. However, ENG’s jungle had been off the map for almost two minutes!
What was he doing? Could he be AFK?
Xu Shengwei was fully engaged, seizing an opportunity to potentially solo kill the enemy AD carry. His positioning became more aggressive. At a crucial moment, Jiang Jin promptly intervened, saying, “Back off!”
But it was too late. ENG’s jungle suddenly ambushed from the rear, locking both Jiang Jin and Xu Shengwei in place.
Despite his youth, Xu Shengwei’s reflexes were sharp. With mental preparedness, he immediately used his ultimate to evade the crowd control.
The commentator was just about to praise Xu Shengwei for his impressive speed at the age of 17 when, in the next second, the ENG jungle appeared within the hero entrance range!
“Oh no, Galio is coming down!”
Without hesitation, Xu Shengwei pressed the Flash button, escaping the danger zone. His ultimate released a plethora of feathers, and the hook caught three opponents!
However, this couldn’t save Jiang Jin!
Under a barrage of crowd control, he succumbed to the enemies. “Go! Hurry! Don’t look back!” Jiang Jin’s command was tantamount to an order. In such a crucial match, Xu Shengwei dared not prioritize damage. He turned and headed towards the direction of the second turret.
ENG’s pursuit was relentless, and Galio still had a powerful control skill – his W dash! In this position, hitting it was almost a certainty!
Xu Shengwei gripped the mouse tightly, his palms sweaty.
He knew this was his only chance. In the moment of Galio’s W dash, he used his fastest-ever reflexes to press the heal button!
A green glow descended upon him, providing healing and an acceleration effect simultaneously, just enough to let him evade Galio’s W taunt!
The commentator exclaimed, “Is this the speed of a 17-year-old?!”
Even with such an attempt, they couldn’t take down Xu Shengwei?
Qi Mo had already realized things were going south. He desperately signaled his teammates to retreat, and the teammates were also signaling. The entire screen was filled with red exclamation marks, turning the view into a sea of red!
Lin Lan teleported down!
Not only Lin Lan, but Xiao Shengjing also rushed from the side, and Xu Shengwei, who was still alive, all converged towards them…
From this angle, from this position, no matter how you looked at it, ENG was at a clear disadvantage!
Qi Mo desperately told his teammates, “Split up and go!”
The top laners on both sides lit up their teleportation at the same time. In an instant, all members gathered in the bottom lane!
The audience erupted in excitement. Was this the support of professional players?
ENG’s bottom lane tried to escape from the side, but Lee Sin flew in from the bushes, kicking them back.
Lin Lan happened to teleport down and landed. He leaped over, used his ultimate to steal the varus’s ultimate, and unleashed a massive binding ultimate that connected and bound all four opponents together.
ENG: !!!
Although they had four people, their conditions were not ideal!
Lin Lan trapped them all in place, followed by a deadly W to instantly kill their AD. Then, he joined Xiao Shengjing in a relentless onslaught of damage!
For a moment, the situation was chaotic. All that could be seen were Lin Lan’s chains swinging through the crowd, each swing bringing unstoppable damage!
One after another, they fell, and the system voice repeatedly announced the casualties. In a dazzling display of maneuvers, Sylas secured a double kill, triple kill, quadruple kill…
ENG lost all four members, while DT only lost Jiang Jin and Xiao Shengjing. Crucially, both Lin Lan and Xu Shengwei, who needed to scale, were still alive!
Lin Lan chased down the opponent’s top laner, wreaking havoc. His champion was inherently high in damage output, and even Sion’s health melted layer by layer under his assault.
The game was not over yet, and giving away a pentakill at this moment would undoubtedly affect morale. Sion desperately tried to escape Lin Lan’s range of damage. However, in the next second, an iron chain flew towards him, stealing his ultimate!
Audience: !!!
Sylas’s abilities had very short cooldowns, and Lin Lan was equipped with cooldown reduction items. His ultimate had a cooldown of only 25 seconds!
He stole Sion’s ultimate and unleashed the ultimate back at Sion. Following up with the chain, he successfully executed another W!
Pentakill!
After this match, the audience finally realized the true strength of Sylas!
While they were aware that Sylas had high damage output and was formidable, they didn’t fully grasp the extent of his power until now.
Today, Lin Lan has shown them!
Sylas is a killing machine, born for slaughter, a demon from hell!
In the recent team fight, he never stopped dealing damage for a second, always riding on the enemy’s face!
No one could withstand his damage, and no one could surpass Lin Lan’s hand speed. He has reached the pinnacle of shaping the champion Sylas!
Securing a pentakill and wiping out the enemy team not only meant an economic lead and resource plunder but also inflicted psychological pressure on the opponents!
The commentator was at a loss for words to describe Lin Lan, as his language system struggled to find the most fitting expressions.
The barrage of comments erupted in cheers; whether a fan of Lin Lan or not, everyone was impressed by his outstanding performance.
ENG’s fans also realized the essence of the saying: “When your enemy becomes powerful enough, they cease to be an adversary and become a peak you can admire!”
Lin Lan not only impressed the opponents but also won over the fans of the opposing team!
At this point in the match, ENG already feels the struggle of being overwhelmed. Qi Mo has exhausted all his tactics but remains powerless to turn the tide. They fall beneath the relentless push, witnessing DT securing the Nexus.
The commentator exclaims with enthusiasm, “Let’s congratulate DT for taking this game, successfully leveling the score!”
With the score now tied, both teams return to a level playing field, and the outcome of a single game will determine the winner. This pressure and outcome are something ENG cannot afford to bear…!
