LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 559 You can kick back even a vixen?

You like to sacrifice but don't give any meat (meaning you're willing to give more than you deserve), and you want everyone to have their share? Lin Ruo definitely won't agree to that.

But not before that.

IG launched a very swift counterattack.

Lin Ruo didn't really expect that IG's top, mid, and jungle could put on such a top-tier performance when their bottom lane was completely destroyed.

Or.

He didn't expect that the person causing problems in the team would be Scout, the main carry.

It seems that Akali shouldn't always be the first to use her ultimate; being too confident isn't always a good thing.

Lin Ruo, who had originally planned to check the top lane, saw that the mid lane seemed to be fighting quite intensely, so after clearing some jungle camps, she headed to counter-gank the mid lane. However, she didn't expect to witness Scout getting completely outplayed.

Moreover, it seems he has a part in this too.

The reason was that after Scout got his ultimate, he called on Lin Ruo to come and tower dive, since Akali and Lee Sin's damage wasn't high, so no team's mid and jungle had high damage.

So Lin Ruo naturally came, intending to ward the F6 camp and enter the tower to help Akali kill LeBlanc under the tower.

However, since LeBlanc is at full health, Akali naturally needs to do some damage beforehand to ensure a safe outcome. After all, it's not safe to just mindlessly dive a full-health LeBlanc who has several dashes.

Therefore, Scout used his harassment skill at the critical moment when pushing the lane into the tower.

First, use Q to initiate while simultaneously activating the Fog of War to dodge LeBlanc's W skill, Shadow Step, and then follow up with a basic attack and another Q to reduce her health to about two-thirds.

This wave of attrition was very successful.

Scout was unsuccessful because he was too far forward and took some damage from the turret, and was then locked in place by the chain thrown by LeBlanc.

As a result, its own health dropped to about two-thirds.

At this moment, Lin Ruo arrived from the upper river, preparing to enter the red team's F6 camp to ambush and dive the tower.

But in the blink of an eye, he saw something else.

Scout seemed a bit overconfident and used Q again. Although he managed to hit LeBlanc this time, he was still attacked by the turret.

As a result, Akali's health suddenly dropped to around half.

The sharp-eyed Rookie quickly spotted the opportunity. After waiting for his skills to cool down, he used Q followed by R and then two W dashes to land a precise hit, instantly taking away most of Akali's health.

Fearing Akali's ultimate would kill her, LeBlanc used her W skill to retreat into the tower after using all her abilities.

Seeing this situation, Lin Ruo could only ward out of the F6 camp, enter the tower, and use her Q to see if she could hit the LeBlanc who only had half her health left.

Whether he kills him or not is another matter; at least he should go out and help Scout distract the enemy while he's in the F6 spawn.

Rookie was prepared. Seeing that Akali didn't use her ultimate to fight back, he used his ultimate to reset and return to Akali's side as Lee Sin came out through the wall to ward.

Scout didn't run very far.

With just three hits to kill him, he had nowhere to escape.

The newly refreshed E skill was used by LeBlanc to dodge, but she didn't create much distance before Rookie, who had a quick idea, killed her.

Lin Ruo, who had just entered the tower and used her Q skill, wanted to make another move, but the Gragas arrived at that moment, so she could only return the way she came and retreat to the upper half of the map in frustration.

Scout is gone.

It seems that this also caused him some trouble, because the Heavenly Sound Wave that he used to pass through the wall by touching the eye was now empty.

This led to Rookie's even better performance, as evidenced by the reactions of the commentators.

"Wow, that's beautiful, he's really showing off! Rookie pulled off a solo kill at a crucial moment."

Wang Duoduo clapped and cheered: "This move directly saved IG from dire straits. He truly deserves to be called IG's elder brother."

Amidst the cheers of IG fans at the scene, the LPL official live stream chat was flooded with "awesome!" messages.

Rookie, the father of IG, we still need him.

[As expected of Kakao, who brought IG to its core, his performance this year has been phenomenal.]

[Rookie solo-killed world champion mid laner Scout, he's too good!]

...

Lin Ruo returned to the jungle and remained calm.

Only he knew that Rookie's play was indeed very impressive, but wasn't the real problem that Scout made a big mistake?

That's true, you can tell just by looking at Scout's eyes.

I confidently picked Akali, but ended up going 0-2 at the start.

"The guys got a bit too cocky, I'll play it safe." Even Scout, realizing he'd given away too much, became hesitant and submissive.

Even though IG's bot lane collapsed, EDG gained a huge advantage.

But you inexplicably came up in the mid lane and died twice in a row.

That's good, it's even now.

IG inevitably turned the tide again.

The key point is that Lin Ruo now feels that they might be at a disadvantage, because both teams' lineups, especially IG's, are 100% focused on the top, mid, and jungle, and now there is a LeBlanc who is very fed in the early game.

So, will it still be difficult for IG to play with their top, mid, and jungle players?

I don't know the specifics, but chasing after Akali is definitely no problem.

It was precisely because Akali was ineffective that Rookie's roaming became more successful.

At 9 minutes, they ganked the bottom lane and killed Rakan, who is the hardest hero to kill.

Just as LeBlanc roamed down, Baolan's Leona executed a very skillful E-Flash to control Rakan, who couldn't move in time, and then followed up with a Q skill to continue controlling him.

At this moment, LeBlanc dashes up, steps on, follows up with Q, and then chains. Even though Tianye reacts quickly, turns around, touches Ezreal, and then uses W to continue moving backward.

Even so, it couldn't stop LeBlanc from using her R skill followed by W, and then finishing off the enemy with extremely high burst damage.

The fields were not unprepared.

The problem is that Xayah wasn't online at that time. How could he have imagined that a support player online would launch a surprise attack on him?

What's the point of a support controlling me if I don't have an ADC?

Oh oh.

Turns out there's a top-tier scaling champion, LeBlanc, who's twice as powerful as an ADC.

There was nothing else to be done, and Tianye had experienced firsthand the terrifying burst damage.

IG won one more game.

The headcount for both sides is now completely back to square one.

It seems like IG really has the advantage now.

Therefore, Guan Zeyuan, who was on the commentary desk, believed that the previous solo kill was a very important turning point.

With Irelia also getting kills in the top lane, even though IG was still a bit behind EDG in gold, it didn't affect his belief that IG was about to start making a strong push.

However, this approach might have worked even if Guan Zeyuan hadn't said those words.

But when Guan Zeyuan said this with such certainty, it was hard to say whether it would work.

11-minute time point.

Taking advantage of the time when Lin Ruo returned home after taking the first Fire Dragon, Ning Wang seized the opportunity in the bottom lane and led his duo to push straight down the tower.

While all of EDG's players were still on their top lanes, IG naturally took advantage of the time difference to push down the first tower.

However, at this moment, Rakan, who was providing vision, and Akali, who was in the mid lane, also came down from the tri-bush area one after the other.

Tianye, who had just gone online, quickly chose to keep the enemy in place, and used W to lift up the barrel and Xayah that had just destroyed a tower.

It was this one lift.

The field went from full health to almost zero health in an instant.

Gragas turned around and charged in with QW, and with Xayah's output, Rakan had no choice but to Flash and E to retreat and get close to iboyEZ who had just reached the back of the first tower.

EDG, which wanted to retain its players, suffered a major loss because the quality of its roster was uneven.

Fortunately, Akali followed up. Although Leona blocked the entrance, Scout didn't hold back any skills. He used his E skill to attach the shuriken, then used his second skill to move forward, followed by Q and R to activate the fog of war, and brought the blocking Leona to low health first.

Akali's development was average, but Leona only had a pair of Boots of Speed ​​and no magic resistance items, so she couldn't withstand Akali's full combo.

iboyEZ quickly secured the kill with a powerful slash.

EDG barely managed to kill Leona, thus mitigating the loss of the next tower.

"IG still didn't lose out; they traded a support for the next tower."

Guan Zeyuan, the commentator, still felt that IG had come out ahead, but only if IG knew when to stop and retreat instead of continuing to fight.

Because Lin Ruo's Lee Sin also arrived on the battlefield, and an Ornn followed behind him.

That's right, it's Ornn in the top lane.

With neither Ornn nor Irelia currently having teleport, GimGoon, who happened to be recalling, saw that a team fight might break out in the bottom lane and chose to provide support on foot.

So even with IG's most fed LeBlanc arriving, it seems that fighting outnumbered is not an easy task, especially since the low-health Rakan is still alive.

However, Akali had already charged into the IG team when she used her ultimate to pass through Leona. The IG jungler and bot laner, who are known for their aggressive playstyle, seemed unwilling to leave and wanted to kill Akali, who was using her fog of war ability, first.

Scout had already used his second ultimate at this point, and was originally preparing to retreat, but Ning predicted his ultimate and threw it into the air, causing him to return.

This led neither side to withdraw.

Next, iboy made an even bigger impact, decisively using his E skill to engage after Akali was knocked back and activated her Stopwatch.

This move, while a bit reckless, was clearly not a problem when both Gragas and Xayah were focused on Akali.

Gragas has already used his ultimate, so it will be difficult for IG's bot lane and jungle to pose a fatal threat to an Ezreal.

But the bad thing is...

The enchantress then arrived from the river.

So when Rookie saw EZ jump up, he didn't hesitate to use two dashes to take down the audacious blond guy.

Once you step on it.

EZ is either dead or seriously injured.

And that's exactly what happened. Against a LeBlanc who had farmed ahead of the game, EZ was reduced to a critical state as soon as his chain was active.

Then EZ would be doomed.

Fortunately, iboy had a Flash to create distance, and it was precisely at the moment of this Flash that Rookie's LeBlanc was still focused on chasing down Ezreal.

Suddenly, a blind monk kicked at us from the front.

Rookie was a bit slow; due to his distraction, he didn't focus all his attention on Lee Sin even though he still had more than two-thirds of his health left.

That's exactly why he still hadn't fully reacted when the blind monk came up so quickly.

By the time he realized what was happening, he had been inexplicably kicked at close range by the blind monk who was still there.

When Rakan used his ultimate ability to charm himself, Rookie was completely dumbfounded.

What kind of move is this? How can it be so fast... He quickly remembered that long-lost martial arts technique, the kick that Lin Ruo had demonstrated with Lee Sin in the Spring Split and MSI Mid-Season Invitational this year.

"W! Oh my god, Lin Ruo actually kicked a LeBlanc who could have returned to her original position back!"

In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan's mouth was agape at that moment.

He had witnessed this incredibly fast kicking method twice before.

But this time, the level of surprise was no less than the previous two.

Because this time they kicked LeBlanc.

LeBlanc can change her location and return with just one R skill.

Lin Ruo actually kicked the demoness back like that.

So exactly how fast does this eye flash (W) need to be to truly achieve this?

Although LeBlanc's attention was mostly on Ezreal at the time, it was still quite absurd that she was able to kick him back.

Guan Zeyuan simply couldn't believe it.

Even more incredulous than him was the Roaring Emperor on the other side of the LCK commentary booth.

I've lost count of how many times I've called out "Shiba" and "Ah" to him.

Finally, there was the classic line, gritting his teeth: "Lin Ruo, Lin Ruo, how could he be so terrifying?"

It's a W-shaped flash in the eyes.

Isn't it just what it sounds like? Place a ward with F4, then immediately use Flash and Ward Hoo.

But in practice, how many people can actually do it, and how many can do it that quickly?

So... who exactly is Lin Ruo?

After that kick, nobody cared about whether Ezreal or Akali lived or died, and nobody cared about LeBlanc's life or death either.

Anyway, as long as he's handsome, that's all that matters.

So, was that kick cool? Need I say more? It was absolutely cool!

The scene was already in an uproar.

What the audience didn't expect was that there was something even more handsome coming up.

Because after Lin Ruo kicked the demon girl back, she chose to stand there quietly.

Rookie, on the other hand, is facing hell.

Luo Fei quickly activated his R skill, using charm and a lift to control LeBlanc, while iboy's EZ launched a furious counterattack from the side.

If that's all there is to it, Rookie doesn't think his opponent could kill him.

Moreover, EZ and Rakan are both low on health, so they might be able to turn the tables and kill each other after the crowd control wears off.

But here's the thing.

The opponent seems to have a new control mechanism, which is precisely the sound of the sheep coming.

So Ornn is here too. That looks like we're in for a rough time.

In response, Rookie could only frantically press the R skill, hoping to reset himself the moment Ornn's ram knocked him up.

The good news is that he successfully avoided the goat charge and managed to return to the initial position where he had just released the W skill by pressing the R skill as he broke free of control.

The bad news is that Lin Ruoke was waiting for him there the whole time.

So when Rookie returned to his original position, he saw a Sonic Wave mark on himself, and Lin Ruo had already anticipated this and cast his Q skill.

That's really the end.

The enchantress ultimately could not escape death.

The team fight is over. Although IG killed Akali, they inevitably gave away two more kills.

The key point is that LeBlanc's kills are equivalent to two kills, so IG's actions can be roughly described as giving away three kills.

In short, after this wave, the advantage suddenly seems to have disappeared.

Lin Ruo, the blind monk, seems to be almost unkillable.

"A 3-0 Lee Sin feels even more terrifying than the previous 3-0 LeBlanc."

I remember trembling a little as I wondered what other memorable plays Lee Sin would make next.

Logically speaking, LeBlanc should be more threatening than Lee Sin, but this Lee Sin's ID is Lin Ruo. He can kick out a ward flash W. Is there anything he can't kick out?
I just want to ask how IG will defend against this Lee Sin.

And can JK Xayah reliably unleash her ultimate when facing Lee Sin's ultimate?
It's hard to say anything for sure.

All that is known is that Ning, looking at the Lee Sin's equipment, completely shed tears.

Lin Ruo could have already built Black Cleaver, but because he bought Tiamat to make farming easier, he didn't build it at that point.

At this point, Ning can only afford to buy a pair of magic penetration boots.

He is very fragile.

He's the kind of person who's likely to be instantly killed if he gets hit by Lee Sin's Q.

And the subsequent performance proved this to be true.

Less than six minutes later, Lin Ruo, who had just returned to town to resupply, bumped into Ning Wang in the river in the lower jungle.

Because the next dragon was a fire dragon, Ning tried to take down the river crab to gain vision, but Lin Ruo arrived just in time and hit the barrel with a sonic wave that was neither too far nor too close.

But Prince Ning remained completely calm.

Because he was certain that there was no one behind Lin Ruo at the moment, but there was someone behind him, otherwise he wouldn't dare to openly censor this.

Therefore, Ning's move was essentially a pure physical seduction.

But his body is very fragile. Lin Ruo used Lee Sin's two Q kicks to take down more than half of his health in just a few hits.

Ning had no choice but to use his ultimate ability, which he threw backwards, not to blast Lee Sin away, but to blast him towards the area in front of him.

Because Leona had already arrived at the entrance to the river jungle in front of him.

Baolan casually used his E skill, followed by his Q skill and ultimate, using all his crowd control abilities to keep Lee Sin firmly in place.

What followed was JK Xayah unleashing a barrage of attacks and securing the kill.

Meanwhile, Ning, who had already lost most of his skills, stood on the sidelines and observed.

He didn't want to go up and steal the kill; as long as Xayah got that big kill, they would make up for a lot of the economic gap in this wave.

Ning Wang's plan was beautiful, and reality was getting closer and closer. Lin Ruo's Lee Sin health was almost zero after being hit by Xayah's basic attacks.

Only then did Prince Ning, who believed the blind monk was doomed, dare to approach and take a closer look, seemingly mocking the manner of Lin Ruo's death.

But then.

Prince Ning then noticed a golden light appear in front of him.

Oh, I misread it.

It turned out to be a simple, unpretentious kick by Jin Guangjia.

So is this a death throes? It doesn't seem like it...

As Lin Ruo was about to die, he used Flash, kicked the barrel away, and activated his W skill to add a shield. Then he threw a Sonic Wave in the direction the barrel was kicked away, followed by his second skill.

Then Ning Wang discovered that he had almost half his health left and was instantly killed by this combo.

Moreover, Lin Ruo successfully widened the gap between himself and the IG duo by using this Q skill.

Guan Zeyuan, who was following up in the commentary booth, was commentating normally just a second ago: "Leona has controlled Lee Sin, Xayah is here and is dealing all the damage, Lin Ruo is about to give away this big kill."

After saying this, Guan Zeyuan's tone completely changed: "Lin Ruo was almost dead with low health, what? Lin Ruo suddenly flashed out and kicked the Gragas away with a RQQ kick, ah! The Gragas is dead!"

This surprise lasted only a second, because the next second Guan Zeyuan looked at Lin Ruo's equipment and suddenly felt that the barrel might still be short of some health.

When his computer went black, Ning realized that he was the clown. So why did he go over to give Lee Sin a chance to flash? Wouldn't it have been better to just stay on the edge and watch others die?

These are not the important points now, because what comes next is the real important point.

Ning Wang not only killed himself, but also killed his teammates.

JK, who desperately needed to farm, had no intention of letting go of this big kill, so he flashed away. If Lin Ruo hadn't used Tiamat to heal some health on the barrel, he should have killed it in two auto-attacks.

But there's always this "what if".

So he couldn't get A out on his third try.

Because Rakan arrived at this moment, Tianye activated his ultimate, first using his E skill to touch Lee Sin and add a shield, and then lifting up Xayah who was attacking.

Everything came to an abrupt end at that moment.

Next comes the classic scene where Akali arrives.

Scout easily killed Xayah, who was caught off guard and lifted up. Even though JK used his ultimate at the last moment, he was still easily passed through and taken down by Akali's second ultimate the moment he landed.

Xia died too.

Leona didn't escape either; after Rakan lifted up and charmed Xayah, he immediately went on to charm Leona as well.

IG lost three players in one go.

Meanwhile, Lin Ruo, still low on health, quietly returned to the city not far away.

This was a resounding 3-0 exchange, leaving the three commentators speechless. IG's jungler trio perfectly illustrated what it means to try to steal a chicken but lose the rice instead.

They only intended to kill one blind monk, but in the end, all three of them were killed, while the target was still alive and well, even gracefully dancing his recall dance on their corpses.

Lin Ruo didn't even need to type a question mark in the chat; the mentality of the three IG players had already completely collapsed.

Especially JK, I even used Flash and gave up my life, but I still couldn't kill a single Lee Sin.
So what's next?

He really wanted to ask Ning how to play, but Ning, who had no idea, finally made a change and bought a Burning Gem on top of his full nuclear burst build.

I was thinking that if I had just built some tank items back then, I wouldn't have been instantly killed by Lee Sin, and I wouldn't have suffered the series of disastrous consequences that followed.

But there are no "what ifs," and there's no medicine for regret in this world.

It's blown up, and that's it. They seem to be in a complete collapse now.

Three people died, and the second fire dragon had to be handed over to EDG without even a chance to compete for it.

EDG secured two Infernal Dragons in less than 20 minutes, and Ning couldn't believe just how terrifying the damage output of a Lee Sin with almost two items was.

Forget it, just that underdeveloped Akali rushing in is enough to give them a run for their money.

How to do how to do?
This is the fourth game; if we can't win this one, it'll be over.

Wait a minute, shouldn't the Irelia who's been farming in the top lane step up?

At least during this period, TheShy was never affected, and his farm was indeed in good condition with a nearly 40-creep lead over Ornn.

IG's lineup was originally designed for the top, mid, and jungle, but inexplicably they kept feeding in the bottom lane.

Therefore, the only strategy facing IG at this point to win the game is to keep playing in the top lane, because they really will have to keep playing in the top lane from now on.
