Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou
Chapter 1286 Insidious
"First Blood!"
Just 1 minute and 30 seconds into the game, RNG's mid lane collapsed!
"That's so sneaky! TES's tactics are so dirty!" Heart gritted his teeth as he watched from behind.
That wasn't the end of it. After securing First Blood, Tian's Wukong stole Karsa's Blue Buff and then headed straight to the bottom lane.
At this point, the bottom laner had just reached level 2.
Mark's Amumu, without any logic, used his Q skill "Bandage Pull" directly, followed by Flash and Q!
Although Ming's Tahm Kench blocked him, Tian's Wukong had already surrounded him from behind!
Uzi and Ming both used Flash to barely escape, but their health was severely damaged, forcing them to return to base.
Less than three minutes into the game, RNG's mid and bot lanes were both at a huge disadvantage.
Meanwhile, in the top lane, Lin Feng's Gangplank faced immense pressure against Wayward's Akshan. Akshan, with his long range and agility, constantly used his passive and Q skill to whittle down Gangplank's health, making it difficult for Lin Feng to even find a safe opportunity to farm barrels.
RNG is at a disadvantage in all three lanes!
"This is the rhythm TES wants!" White Crescent exclaimed excitedly. "Suppression! Suppression from all sides! Don't give them any chance to breathe!"
The next ten minutes became TES's show.
Tian's Wukong and Knight's Vigus were like conjoined twins, roaming the map like madmen. They went to the bottom lane to tower dive and kill Uzi, then turned around and cooperated with the top laner Akash to kill Lin Feng who was defending the tower.
Karsa's Xin Zhao completely lost control of the jungle and could only passively farm a few monsters in his own half of the jungle.
15 minutes into the game, TES's economic lead had already expanded to a terrifying 6,000 gold!
The RNG players remained silent in the voice chat, creating a suffocatingly oppressive atmosphere.
"I can't hold on... How can we fight like this?" Xiaohu looked at his 0/3/0 score and his mentality was a bit unbalanced.
"Can fight."
A calm voice broke the silence. It was Lin Feng.
“Listen to me,” his voice wasn’t loud, but it was exceptionally clear, “They have a huge advantage right now and will definitely rush to the high ground. This is our only chance. Xiaohu, your Ryze, don’t think about dealing damage. Your only task is to drive. Karsa, wait for my signal. Uzi, Ming, survive. If you survive, you can deal damage.”
His words were like a stabilizing force, giving his teammates, who were on the verge of collapse, a renewed sense of purpose.
As expected, TES, armed with the Rift Herald, began to gather at RNG's mid-lane high ground. They wanted to end this game, which was already a foregone conclusion, in one fell swoop.
JackeyLove's Kai'Sa already had three core items, making him the best-equipped player on the field. He confidently walked at the front, ready to enjoy the thrill of slaughter.
RNG's five players passively defended under the high ground tower, looking like lambs to the slaughter.
Just as TES's minion wave surged onto the high ground, JackeyLove's Kai'Sa was about to push forward to attack the tower!
A sudden change occurs!
Ming's Tahm Kench swallowed Uzi's Jinx, who had the highest damage output nearby, and then flashed forward, spitting her out on the flank of the TES team!
At the same time, Xiaohu's Ryze activated his ultimate ability, "Warp!"
The teleportation array was set up directly behind the TES formation!
"RNG is about to counter-attack! They're going to use Ryze's ultimate to flank from behind!"
When the TES members saw this, they were stunned at first, and then they showed a disdainful smile.
"Trying to flank? You're asking for it!" Instead of retreating, JackeyLove advanced, activating his ultimate "Hunter's Instinct" to fly towards the landing Jinx and instantly kill her!
However, in the instant he was flying in mid-air!
A horn sounded, echoing throughout Summoner's Rift!
Captain Lin Feng pressed his R key in the spring!
Ultimate move: "Cannon Barrage"!
The three waves of dense shells did not choose to cover the main battlefield, but instead accurately predicted JackeyLove's Kai'Sa's landing position from an extremely tricky angle!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
JackeyLove's Kai'Sa had just landed when she was bombarded by artillery fire from the sky, her health bar instantly evaporated by nearly half, and she was also given a huge slow effect!
"That was a brilliant move!" Heart exclaimed, jumping to his feet.
This is not over yet!
The teleportation from Ryze's magic circle wasn't just Karsa's Xin Zhao, but also a triple barrel combo!
Lin Feng, in the fountain, timed Ryze's teleportation precisely and placed two gunpowder barrels in advance. When Ryze drove, he placed the third barrel and detonated it with a single shot!
A "family bucket" separated by the entire map!
This triple barrel, as if it had eyes, exploded precisely at Jack-eyLove's feet the moment he landed and was slowed down by Gangplank's ultimate!
The terrifying true damage and critical hits instantly emptied JackeyLove's health bar!
TES's main carry got instantly killed!
Moreover, he was instantly killed by a captain who was far away in the spring with a combo of "Heaven and Earth Live Together"!
The entire TES team was stunned! JackeyLove stared dumbfounded at his gray screen, his mind completely blank.
Without Kai'Sa, TES was leaderless. RNG sounded the horn for a counterattack! Uzi's Jinx, protected by Tahm Kench, dealt massive damage, quickly triggering her passive "Guilty Pleasure"!
The battlefield turned into a Jinx reaping show!
Double Kill! Triple Kill! Quadra Kill!
In the end, RNG achieved a perfect team wipe with a 0-for-5 exchange!
"My God! This...this can be flipped?!" White Crescent couldn't believe her eyes in the TES base.
Thunderous cheers erupted in RNG's training room.
"Awesome! Fengzi! You're my god!" Uzi was so excited he was incoherent.
Lin Feng simply smiled faintly, controlling the newly resurrected captain, walking out of the fountain, and together with his teammates, pushing towards TES's empty base.
In this game, they responded to TES with their signature offensive style.
And they were told who the real king of team battles was.
The stunning comeback in the second game, reminiscent of the "fountain bucket" strategy, dealt a huge psychological blow to the TES team. The atmosphere in the rest area was incredibly tense. JackeyLove silently drank his water, still replaying the moment he was instantly killed. It felt like being shot in the head by an unseen ghost from afar, a feeling of utter helplessness washing over him.
White Crescent knew the team's mentality was crumbling. He stopped emphasizing tactics and instead walked over to JackeyLove, patting him on the shoulder: "Don't dwell on it. That wave was due to Lin Feng's individual skill exceeding conventional understanding; it wasn't your fault. Next game, forget the first two, treat it like a best-of-one. Bring out our most confident moves and get back at them!" He turned to everyone, his eyes unusually determined: "In the third game, we won't play fancy stuff anymore, we'll play our classic 'mid-jungle duo' system! Knight, Tian, the outcome of this game rests on the shoulders of the two of you!"
Knight and Tian exchanged a glance and nodded emphatically. As one of the top mid-jungle duos in the LPL, they had their own pride.
Despite winning two consecutive games, RNG's coach Heart still looked serious.
"Don't let your guard down just because you've won two games!" he warned. "TES is an extremely resilient team. When they're pushed to the brink, they'll definitely pull out all the stops. In the next game, they'll most likely play around their mid and jungle. Karsa, Xiaohu, you're under a lot of pressure."
He looked at Lin Feng and said, "Lin Feng, there might not be much of a rhythm in the top lane this game. You need to stay calm and even sacrifice your own development to support the mid lane when necessary."
Lin Feng nodded calmly: "Understood." He knew that his outstanding performance in two consecutive games would inevitably attract more intense targeting from his opponents, and he was prepared to become a "tactical sacrifice."
The third game of the best-of-five training match has officially begun!
In this game, RNG returned to the blue side, while TES was on the red side.
The draft phase between the two sides was highly competitive, with each side practically laying their tactical intentions bare.
RNG lineup: Top laner Ornn (LinFeng), jungler Jarvan IV (Karsa), mid laner Lissandra (Xiaohu), ADC Xayah (Uzi), support Rakan (Ming).
Coach Heart delivered on his promise. He drafted a pure team-oriented tank for Lin Feng – Ornn. This choice meant that RNG was giving up their laning advantage in the top lane and placing all their bets on mid-game team fights and crowd control. Jarvan IV, Lissandra, Ornn, and Rakan – four powerful engage champions – all with one goal: to create the perfect environment for Uzi's Xayah to deal damage.
TES lineup: Top lane Renekton (Wayward), Jungle Lee Sin (Tian), Mid lane Sylas (knight), ADC Sivir (JackeyLove), Support Yuumi (Mark).
TES's lineup choice was even more extreme! They opted for the classic "Sivir + Yuumi" combo, ensuring high movement speed and AoE damage in late-game team fights. Their top, mid, and jungle composition—Renren, Lee Sin, and Sylas—is one of the strongest early-to-mid-game fighting combinations! Their intention was clear—to completely overwhelm RNG's top, mid, and jungle before their late-game composition could be fully formed!
"Games start!"
Both sides got off to a steady start, but the tense atmosphere in the air seemed to have solidified.
In the top lane, Lin Feng's Ornn faced immense pressure from Wayward's Renekton from level one. Renekton has a natural dominance against melee tanks in the early game. Wayward played aggressively, constantly whittling down Ornn's health with his empowered W skill, "Relentless Hunt."
Lin Feng played with exceptional composure. He forwent some last-hitting, using the pillars from his Q skill "Volcanic Eruption" to create distance, while simultaneously using the shield from his W skill "Breath of the Bellows" to mitigate damage. His goal was clear: survival was victory. He even skipped the standard Doran's Shield on his first recall, opting instead for a Cloth Armor and a Refillable Potion, clearly demonstrating his commitment to playing it safe.
As Heart predicted, the real storm erupted in Nakano.
Four minutes into the game, after clearing his top jungle, Tian's Lee Sin didn't go to the bottom lane. Instead, he used a ward hop and W to cross the dragon pit and arrive at RNG's bottom jungle, aiming directly at the Krugs that Karsa was fighting.
"Tian is going to invade the enemy jungle! His pace is incredibly fast!"
Karsa's Prince was not in good condition and had no choice but to retreat when he saw Lee Sin invading.
Just as Karsa retreated, Knight's Sylas pushed the minion wave quickly to the tower in the mid lane and then headed straight for RNG's jungle to gank!
"Mid-jungle synergy! TES's target is Karsa!"
Xiaohu's Lissandra immediately issued a warning signal and used her E skill "Glacier Path" to try to provide support.
But it's too late.
Tian's Lee Sin landed a precise Q skill "Sonic Wave" on Jarvan IV, followed by a second Q. Knight's Sylas stole Lissandra's ultimate "Frozen Tomb" and immediately froze Xiaohu, who was trying to come to her rescue!
Karsa's prince was beaten to death by two people in the jungle.
"First Blood!"
TES's mid and jungle players displayed immense pressure from the very beginning!
After securing First Blood, Tian and Knight didn't slow down at all. They controlled the Rift Scuttler in the river, then both recalled to base to replenish their resources. Tian's Lee Sin immediately bought a Serrated Dirk to maximize his early-game damage. Knight's Sylas, on the other hand, bought a Lost Chapter to ensure his mana and sustain.
Seven minutes into the game, Tian's Lee Sin returned to the mid lane. This time, they had a more elaborate plan.
Knight's Sylas first used his second E skill, "Strike," to pull Xiaohu's Lissandra, forcing him to use his E skill dash. Just as Lissandra landed after using her E skill, Tian's Lee Sin appeared from the flank and used an R-flash "Dragon Tail" to precisely kick the just-landed Lissandra back to TES's tower!
With a smooth and fluid combo, Xiaohu was defeated once again!
"TES' mid and jungle have taken off! Knight and Tian's synergy is flawless!"
The plating on the mid-lane tower was being rapidly eroded, and the economic gap widened imperceptibly. Although RNG's bot lane had a slight CS lead, they could only passively defend against the huge disadvantage in the mid and jungle, and dared not make any aggressive moves.
As the match progressed into the mid-game, the situation became increasingly unfavorable for RNG.
At 13 minutes, the Rift Herald spawned. RNG was forced to engage in a team fight.
Both sides spread out their formations in the river. At this time, Knight's Sylas had completed his first major item - Everfrost, while Tian's Lee Sin also had the Mythic item Bloodthirster.
In the team fight, Knight's Sylas, like a ghost, stole Ornn's ultimate and countered with "Call of the Forging God," shattering RNG's formation. Tian's Lee Sin, amidst the chaos, precisely located Uzi's Xayah and kicked her back.
Despite Ming's desperate efforts to save Uzi, RNG's formation had completely collapsed. Ultimately, TES secured a 2-for-4 exchange, taking the Rift Herald and extending their gold lead to 4,000.
"RNG's lineup is completely unable to function properly! Their control chain is a joke in front of Sylas!"
RNG's team voice chat was completely silent. The players' morale had plummeted to rock bottom.
Just then, Lin Feng's voice rang out again.
"Don't rush, wait until I reach level 13."
His voice wasn't loud, but it made everyone instinctively look towards the road ahead.
Lin Feng's Ornn, despite being suppressed and lagging behind in last hits, didn't die once. He absorbed all the pressure like a sponge, converting all his gold into solid defensive stats. He already had Sunfire Cape and Thornmail.
Level 13 is a turning point for Ornn. He can upgrade equipment for his teammates, bringing huge attribute boosts.
"Hold them off! Buy some time for Brother Feng!" Xiao Hu shouted in the voice chat.
In the following minutes, RNG launched their most tenacious defense. They abandoned all jungle resources, all three outer turrets were destroyed, and vision control was severely restricted. Like hedgehogs huddled in a corner, they used their bare hands to withstand wave after wave of TES's attacks. (End of Chapter)
