LOL: My talent is top-tier, my professional skills are unparalleled.

Chapter 159 Helping is useless, not helping will definitely lead to disaster!

In the past few years of World Championships, although Faker sometimes felt that carrying his teammates was a bit tiring, his teammates at least made some contribution after helping him.

But throughout today's BO5 series, Faker felt like he was doing something futile, and his teammates were like hopeless mud that couldn't be helped.

Helping is useless, not helping will definitely lead to disaster!
Looking back at the quarterfinals match between EDG and SSG, Faker realized that his SKT team seemed to be inferior even to Samsung!

SSG almost defeated EDG, but SKT was completely outmatched by their opponents in the draft, laning, and team fight stages in three consecutive games.

This result was hard for Faker to accept.

Game time is 14 minutes.

With Caitlyn's long range and Blitzcrank's tower pressure, Wang Yao successfully destroyed SKT's top lane tower.

Immediately afterwards, the EDG team also secured the Rift Herald in the upper half of the map.

Scout's Syndra had already reduced SKT's mid-lane turret's health to a quarter of its maximum.

The released Rift Herald smashed it to pieces, and then, with the coordinated push of the EDG team, the Rift Herald smashed the mid-lane second tower again.

In 15 minutes, all three outer turrets of SKT were destroyed.

Although SKT's current situation looks remarkably similar to the previous game, Faker actually felt relieved.

After all, the difference in skill level between the two teams' ADCs wasn't significant, and they could continue to drag the game on.

Especially after Huni's Troll Warlord gained Flash, he made Gnar more cautious, and Mouse dared not pull the opponent away like before.

Otherwise, the troll's pillars would block his E skill's dash.

If the Troll Warlord uses Flash to give Gnar his ultimate, then even with an equipment disadvantage, the Troll Warlord can still dominate and beat Gnar to a pulp.

Now Mouse's job is to use ranged auto-attacks to whittle down the opponent's health, maintain distance from the troll, and slowly reduce the opponent's health.

However, in this delicate standoff, Faker in the mid lane suddenly encountered a problem.

Faker's Karma used her E skill to block an orb detonated by Scout's Syndra using her Q skill.

After learning that Faker no longer had his E shield, Scout seized the opportunity to unleash a full burst of skills.

At this point, Faker had already built the Athene's Unholy Grail and had Mercury's Treads. Even if Scout had Sorcerer's Shoes and Morellonomicon, he might not be able to kill Karma instantly.

But to Faker's surprise, just as Syndra was fighting him, a long headshot line had already locked onto him.

That's the policewoman's ultimate move, R [Let the Bullets Fly]!
In an instant, Faker felt his heart tighten; he didn't think he could withstand the combined damage of Syndra and Caitlyn's ultimate abilities.

Scout's burst damage combo could only take away three-quarters of his health.

However, Karma, without any armor, absolutely cannot withstand the policewoman's headshot.

Just when Faker was about to despair, a golden light flashed, and Wolf's Janna flashed over, giving Faker a life-saving E shield from the very last moment.

In an instant, the entire audience erupted in cheers.

Although SKT is a formidable rival of the LPL, the audience still cheered and expressed their admiration when they saw Wolf's flash-to-save-the-game play.

Meanwhile, on Korean online forums, a barrage of comments quickly appeared.

"Well done, Wolf!"

"That policewoman is terrifying. If Karma dies, then SKT's mid-lane second tower will be gone."

"Can we buy this guy into the LCK next season? With this kid on the team, he'll make Ruler cry when Bang retires!"

"Is it possible that even if Bang hadn't retired, he would have been beaten to tears by this guy?"

"..."

After Faker escaped unscathed, the SKT team finally breathed a sigh of relief. When Faker's Karma unleashed a powerful RQ under the tower, clearing the minion wave, Tristana, who had come to farm, arrived.

Before the next wave of minions arrives, Faker has plenty of time to recall and then teleport back to mid to continue defending the mid lane with his teammates.

But soon, SKT realized how terrifying the combination of Ivern jungler and Blitzcrank was.

The factory manager began manipulating the Emerald God to frantically plant grass.

Then Meiko's robot, right in front of everyone on SKT, disappeared into the bushes right next to the jungle wall.

In a panic, the SKT players frantically pointed to the patch of grass where they had no view, indicating that the robot was hiding in the grass.

From God's perspective, Meiko went into the bushes and came to the wall, but then walked out again.

Following the shadows cast by the bushes, Meiko slipped into the vicinity of the three wolf pits on the side. He then stood behind the wall, facing the SKT camp, looking eager to try his luck.

Although there is an SKT ward in this position, it is blocked by EDG's real ward and cannot play its role in scouting vision.

Meiko seized the opportunity and suddenly extended her merciless iron hand, Q.

Swish!
Wolf's Janna was dragged back, and Meiko immediately used his ultimate to silence her after pulling her back, then punched Janna away.

Instead of focusing their attacks on Janna, the other four members of EDG took advantage of SKT's distraction and quickly pushed the mid-lane second tower.

After Wolf's Janna regained her mobility, she had to use Weakness to temporarily restrict the robot before escaping from the side.

Fortunately, EDG wasn't interested in Janna, which allowed Wolf to escape.

"Damn it! This robot is so annoying!"

Wolf was so angry he gritted his teeth.

The reason he got hooked by the robot was because he mistakenly thought the robot was in the bush planted by Ivern; otherwise, he would never have given the robot the chance to hook him!

Immediately after SKT's second mid-lane tower fell, the EDG team left.

At the same time, EDG also successfully secured the second dragon of the game, the Water Dragon.

Although the water dragon's attributes are average, with this water dragon, EDG's lineup will have a slight improvement in their out-of-combat healing ability, which will also help EDG's team fight maneuvering.

"EDG already has a huge advantage. With this lineup and strategy, they don't need to engage in team fights with SKT at all. They can just focus on pushing towers and managing their strategy!"

Miller struggled to control his excitement.

When it comes to team operations, EDG is the best at it in the LPL! You can completely trust EDG in this regard!

If EDG can secure a solid victory in this match, they will be the world champions this year!
Miller was overwhelmed with emotion.

After years of being dominated by LCK teams, the LPL has finally seen a glimmer of hope this year.

RNG's five-game battle with SKT is the best proof that the gap between LPL and LCK has been almost completely closed, and they are just one last push away!

And EDG, carrying the hopes of the entire village, is the silver dragon knight that can dispel the darkness and bring hope to the LPL!
Go all out, EDG! You're about to take a 10,000 gold lead over SKT, so don't let your guard down at this point!

A minor skirmish occurred on the bottom lane of the canyon.

Huni finally couldn't hold back any longer, and he controlled the troll to go up and fight Mouse head-on.

He simply couldn't stand farming against a blue-collar top laner; Huni felt restless unless he completely destroyed this Gnar.

It's one thing for them to be unable to beat Smeb, Khan, and Kuwei in the domestic LCK, but they can't possibly struggle so much against Mouse at the World Championship!

With that thought in mind, Huni grabbed his stick and got to work.
