LOL: The world’s best red-temperature mid laner!

It's now a 2v2 situation. The opposing team has their two carries left, while TES has their mid and jungle remaining.

Currently, Lee Sin and Sejuani are in slightly better form than the opposing team's two carries.

T1 retreated and chose not to continue the attack.

Meiko took the blame: "This was my fault. The enemy outmaneuvered me. It was so hard to land a Q on Kalista when I didn't have Flash."

Ah Shui reassured him, "It's okay, let's focus on developing our resources first, we can rely on our teammates."

369 quickly said, "You guys aren't trying to rely on me, are you? There's not much I, a mere tank, can do."

Ah Shui directly denied it: "Then you're overthinking it. It has nothing to do with you."

The game continued, and five minutes had passed. Lü Yi was about to advance to level six.

Akali is having a tough time in the mid lane right now. She already has a difficult laning phase, and now Lee Sin has an item advantage.

He had no choice but to let the Lee Sin push the minion wave over.

After pushing the minion wave, Lü Yi reached level six.

The commentator said, "Right now, Lee Sin is level six, and Akali is still level five with half health. I feel like even under the turret, Lee Sin could one-shot her."

"If Akali doesn't make any mistakes in her combo, she won't have a chance to fight back."

Lu Yi was poised to pounce in front of the enemy's turret, while Faker's Akali only dared to use her Q skill to last-hit minions. Of course, this was risky, but not last-hitting minions was not an option either.

Just then, Lü Yi received a signal: "The enemy support is missing, be careful."

Xiaotian also signaled to the mid laner: "I'm coming over, the enemy jungler might be here too."

Lu Yi continued to loiter in front of the opposing turret, but didn't make a move.

Suddenly, Akali moved closer and hit Lü Yi with her Q skill, while simultaneously activating her W skill, Twilight Shroud.

Sure enough, Rui'er is here on the other side!
Keria's Ryle is coming from the bottom lane, while Zhao Xin is coming from the F6 direction. Lü Yi looks to be in danger.

Lu Yi chose to retreat, and Zhao Xin, without saying a word, used his W skill. Lu Yi dodged and the attack hit!
The predicted W!

Zhao Xin then used his E skill to fly over, and Rui'er got close to deal damage, saving her skills to wait for Lü Yi to be knocked up.

Faker's Akali followed behind, not making a move. He had low health and would be killed instantly, so he was waiting for Lee Sin to use all his skills.

Lu Yi chose to stand still and slam the ground, then followed up with a basic attack to counter Zhao Xin. Just as Zhao Xin was about to use Q3, Lu Yi warded and kicked!
At the same time, Tianyinbo made his move!
Zhao Xin was kicked away, knocking Rui'er away, and flew towards Xiaotian's Sejuani.

The Heavenly Sound Wave immediately hit Zhao Xin, and Lü Yi's echo knocked him away!

Sejuani charged forward, and Riel used her W, Iron Manipulation, to try and interrupt Lee Sin's Echo Slash, but she was a little too slow!
Lu Yi used Echo to knock up Akali and help Sejuani attack Xin Zhao. Although he was knocked up by Xin Zhao's Q3, he couldn't follow up because Akali wasn't level 6 yet!
Rita passionately commented, "They've been tricked! Xiaotian's Sejuani came over to counter-gank beforehand, clearly knowing that the enemy was going to make a move on the mid lane."

"Zhao Xin became the sacrifice; he didn't have Flash, and Lee Sin secured another kill!"

[TES' GodYi (Lee Sin) kills T1's Oner (Xin Zhao)!!!]

The director focused on Zhao Xin, and Oner looked helpless; he was always the one who got hurt.

Faker chose Akali for the mid lane because of her strong solo kill potential, which allows him to snowball quickly if he has an advantage.

On the other hand, he has a strong ability to protect himself, making it difficult to kill him in a one-on-one fight.

However, Oner found himself sacrificing himself as the jungler. The mid laner was safe, but he, the jungler, was not safe at all.

The camera pans to the bottom lane, where Kalista is unable to farm minions because her support left, resulting in her losing two tower plates for nothing.

The chat in the official live stream room was buzzing with excitement:

[They dared to target the mid lane against Top Esports? Isn't that suicidal?]

[Don't let the mid lane fail to help, and then the bot lane gets destroyed.]

[Yi Shen isn't so easy to catch, he's the world's number one mid laner, don't you know that?]

[Gumayusi is about to start swearing in the bottom lane; they had a huge advantage.]

With seven and a half minutes remaining in the game, T1 suddenly made a tactical change.

The duo returned to town to resupply and then headed straight up.

On the top lane, Zac and Quesanti are still locked in a fierce battle.

Suddenly, Quesang unleashed his ultimate move, forcibly trading blows with 369.

"Come on, come on!" 369 wasn't intimidated at all, unleashing his ultimate skill while dealing damage and recovering health from his passive ability.

The two were having a lively fight, but neither was likely to get a solo kill on the other.

However, just as 369 was being carried back by Quesant's Q skill shockwave, Kalista and Riel suddenly emerged from the bushes in the middle!

"No? Calling for backup, two people?" 369 was dumbfounded. He thought it was a one-on-one fight and hadn't been seriously trying to dodge the skills, thinking he wouldn't die.

Riel used her W skill, Iron Manipulation, and Zac used Flash to dodge, but he didn't create enough distance. He was charging up his E skill when Riel interrupted him with a Q!
Miller commented, "It's over, Zac looks like he's going to die. His passive has been triggered, Kalista is dealing damage and securing the kill."

[T1's Gumayusi (Vengeful Spear) has killed TES's 369 (Bio-Maniac)!!!]

369 left a question mark for the bottom lane, meaning why no one gave him a signal in advance.

Meiko took the blame: "It's mine, this wave is mine. I didn't expect the other side to suddenly switch lanes, so let's switch lanes too."

Meiko led Ah Shui uphill.

Meanwhile, T1 has already started attacking the nest worms.

Seeing this, Xiaotian decisively went to fight Xiaolong in exchange.

The commentator said, "Both sides exchanged resources, and T1 can get two more tower plates in the top lane, which is very comfortable."

Both sides entered a development phase, with Lü Yi pushing a wave of minions in the mid lane and starting to roam.

At this moment, Faker sent a signal in the mid lane, indicating that Lee Sin was missing, but he didn't know where Lee Sin had gone.

There's vision in the river above, but I didn't see Lee Sin go there. However, it's also possible that Lee Sin circled around from the jungle, so it's hard to say right now.

In the lower jungle, Xin Zhao hit a Krug with his W over the wall, and then flew over.

Suddenly, a blind monk appeared around the corner, touching his eye to get close!

"Look over here!" Oner quickly called out.

This Lee Sin's skill level and equipment are far superior; Oner can't beat him.

Akali and Quesanti were both walking towards him.

Lu Yi took his time, first using his small skills to deal maximum damage, bringing Zhao Xin's health to the kill threshold!

"Ah!" Suddenly, Zhao Xin used his ultimate to sweep away the Lee Sin, but almost at the same time, the Lee Sin followed up with his ultimate, Sonic Wave!

Both of them used their ultimate abilities at the same time, resulting in them being knocked back together. However, Lee Sin's Sonic Wave hit the target first, so he used the Echo to knock the enemy down and then auto-attack to secure the kill!

[TES' GodYi (Lee Sin) kills T1's Oner (Xin Zhao)!!!]

Rita laughed, "This is the third time. This is the third time Oner's Xin Zhao has been killed by Yi Shen."

"Is it because they picked Lee Sin that they're targeting the enemy jungler so aggressively?"

Wawa continued, "But now T1 is ganking him, and Zac and Sejuani are coming to support. If T1 can't kill Lee Sin quickly, it will be very disadvantageous for them to fight 2v3."

Zeus came from the bottom lane. He approached Lü Yi, used his E skill to close the distance, followed by a basic attack and a Q skill. Lü Yi dodged, and the Q missed. He then used his E skill to slam the ground, slowing Lü Yi with the second part of his E. Quesant used his Q again, but the Lee Sin used his ward to create distance, and missed again.

Miller commented, "Consecutive missed Qs, fatal! Although Akali has arrived, Sejuani and Zac have also arrived, this fight is lost."

Zeus and Faker remained calm, and Lee Sin still had Flash. If they tried to kill Lee Sin, they would most likely end up sacrificing themselves.

So the two sides separated.

Meanwhile, another battle broke out in the top lane!
This time, T1 took the initiative again, with Kalista using her ultimate to throw out Riel.

However, as soon as Riel came out, she was hit by Lena's ultimate. Draven fought and retreated, interrupting Riel's W with his E skill.

In the end, Rui'er gave up for nothing!
[TES' Jackeylove (Glory Executioner) has killed T1's Keria (Molten Iron Girl)!!!]

The doll was dumbfounded: "No way, they just gave up like that? It seems like the T1 bot lane isn't very calm right now. Did they panic because they saw Lee Sin getting all over the place?"

The director gave Ah Shui and Gumayusi a close-up shot each. The two looked very serious and focused, neither of them intimidated by the other.

Fourteen minutes into the game, the second group of brood spawned, and the second dragon also spawned.

This time, Xiaotian chose to proactively go to the Dragon Pit to establish vision control.

You can't send two groups of nest bugs to the opponent, otherwise the pressure will be too great.

T1 also came for the Broodlings; for them, two groups of Broodlings were more valuable than two small dragons.

Rita analyzed: "Both sides want the worms and don't intend to exchange them. The current economy is even, with no obvious advantage or disadvantage."

"This team fight is crucial. The top laners are all in the bottom lane, so it's currently a four-on-four situation."

After pushing the minion wave in the mid lane, Lü Yi moved up to meet up with Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian originally wanted to take this opportunity to play one first.

However, the opposing duo came over first, followed by the jungler from above, turning it into a two-on-three situation.

"Wait for someone." Xiao Tian had no choice but to pull them along first.

This time, Oner and his duo made the first move, with the same idea: take one down first.

Xiao Tian moved closer to try and steal the kill, but the duo also came from the top lane and were about to provide support to the front.

Approaching the Broodmother, Xiaotian's Sejuani suddenly unleashed her ultimate to control Xin Zhao, then charged in headfirst and used Smite!
The punishment came down, and a nest insect was snatched away.

Miller commented, "They got the pick, but how is Sejuani going to move? She's a bit out of position."

"Ryle uses her Q skill to control Sejuani, followed by her W, and Kalista is unleashing a barrage of damage!"

Sejuani's health dropped rapidly. Her passive ability, Pigskin, allowed her to withstand a few more hits, but she couldn't withstand the focused fire.

After being left with low health, Sejuani used Flash, but Xin Zhao Flashed in and used E to continue dealing damage, and then used his ultimate to sweep away Lü Yi's Lee Sin!

Rita commented, "Sejuani is about to collapse, and Lenata comes to her rescue, triggering the revival, but it seems she can't be revived."

Draven can't deal damage to Xin Zhao now, as Xin Zhao is protected by his ultimate.

Lu Yi didn't intend to touch Zhao Xin either. Even if he used all his skills to kill Zhao Xin instantly, it would be difficult to win the subsequent team fight.

Just when the situation was at a stalemate, Akali suddenly flashed in with her ultimate! Her Q skill hit Draven, who then used his W skill, Twilight Shroud, and at the same time, Sejuani died!

[T1's Oner (Xin Xin Zhao) has killed TES's Tian (Head of the North)!!!]

The commentator, Wawa, passionately remarked: "Ah Shui is in danger! Akali is right in his face! Lena used her ultimate, but it only stopped others from getting close. Akali is still right in his face, and it's another QA combo."

"Kalista used her ultimate to throw Riel out, then charged in to deal damage... Lee Sin made his move! Ward Hoop, Thunderstrike, Dragon's Tail, Sonic Wave, Resonating Strike... Kalista is dead!"

[TES' GodYi (Lee Sin) has killed T1's Gumayusi (Kalista)!!!]

Ah Shui's Draven used Flash to create distance, Akali used her second ultimate to fly over, landed and used QA, looking like she was going to kill him, but Lena used her Q skill to control Akali, and Draven countered and completed the counter-kill!

[TES' Jackeylove (The Executioner) has killed T1's Faker (The Rogue Assassin)!!!]

Miller commented, "Akali's development is poor. If she had any better equipment, Draven would have been dead long ago!"

"Zhao Xin used his E skill on Lena's W to slow Draven, and Riel followed up with her W and ultimate, taking down the low-health Draven. Now it's a 2v2!"

[T1's Keria (Iron Girl) has defeated TES's Jackeylove (Glory Executioner)!!!]

Meiko felt confident: "I have skills, I can fight, we can fight this wave."

Lü Yi thought so too, but soon, bad news came from the bottom lane.

[T1's Zeus (Nazuman's Glory) has killed TES's 369 (Bio-Maniac)!!!]

Xiao Tian warned, "The enemy top laner has Teleport, so don't chase them, or you won't be able to escape."

T1 reacted quickly; their jungler and support immediately turned around and initiated a fight.

With no other option, Lü Yi and Meiko had to retreat; they couldn't fight this round.

Rita felt it was a pity: "Actually, Lee Sin's performance in this team fight was already perfect. He killed Kalista instantly, and they would definitely have won the subsequent 2v2."

"However, the top laner is having problems again, so we have to give up now. The enemy team has five Brood Worms!"

Sure enough, Zeus teleported over to help his teammates fight the brood.

Just when everyone in T1 thought they had it all figured out, suddenly, a sonic wave flew over.

"Oops!" Oner was startled; he hadn't punished him!

All I could do was watch as the Heavenly Sonic Wave struck the weakened Nesting Bug and took it down!

"Damn it!" After spending most of the day doing all the work for someone else, I'm really upset now.

In the end, only four woodlice remained in T1.

Xiao Tian was very relieved: "Then it's alright, it's not a big problem."

Meiko then said, "69, what's wrong with you? Come on in a team fight, otherwise we'll be short a crowd control and front-line tank."

369 had no way to explain himself. When the fight broke out earlier, both he and Quesanti were low on health. Quesanti pretended to be looking for a place to teleport to support, but then turned around and killed him.

After Xiao Tian came out, he went straight to fight Xiao Long.

T1 withdrew due to incomplete roster.

Sixteen minutes into the game, TES's bottom lane tower was taken down by Quesanti.

Rita analyzed, "Now Quesanti can even ignore Zac pushing towers, and Zac can only clear minion waves."

"If this continues, it will become increasingly difficult to win. We must find a way to start the game elsewhere."

Doll chimed in, "It's unrealistic for Sejuani and Zac to gank Quesanti. T1 has many ways to win this game; they can win by split pushing in the top lane."

Both sides continued to switch lanes, this time moving the bot lane duo to the mid lane, the mid laner to the bot lane, and the top laner back to the top lane.

Lu Yi pushed the bottom lane minions to the turret, then entered the enemy's lower jungle to ambush them.

He chose to go around to the bushes in front of the stone beetle on the opposite side and crouch down.

Soon, Faker cleared the minion wave under the tower and disappeared from sight.

Then it reappeared and walked towards Lü Yi!
Clearly, Faker also suspected his jungle had been invaded and came to investigate; everything was exactly as Lü Yi had predicted. (End of Chapter)
