My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 239 Ships Linked by Iron Chains Can Be Defeated by the DK Pseudo-Army
[2333, poor cow Guli.]

The teammates you summon with your signal are the very reason you become king (I'm certain)

[It's a pity, even with this exchange, the first tower still belongs to the Death Knight, but in terms of plating, V5 will get more.]

[My dream reacted so quickly, she's already back home and getting ready to go to the bottom lane to connect the lines?]

Smooth!

From the start of the game until now, when both sides are vying for the first tower, V5's operation from beginning to end can be summed up in one word: "smooth," showcasing the composure of the number one seed to the very end.

When the vanguard successfully destroyed V5's first tower, DK and their team watched Yone slowly respawning on the opposing team. Since they were already there, they decided to target him, who was alone.

How
Taliyah's ultimate ability wall had just begun to extend.

next second.

The Jiaotong University team retreated extremely cleanly and decisively, without the slightest hesitation. It was clear to the naked eye that they respected the team and were passionate about life.

Isn't this right?

In the past, weren't the players in World of Warcraft all arrogant and cocky, with skills as stingy as deadbeats, never using their ultimate or flash, and obsessed with getting a counter-kill?
What the hell is this?

Is this the kind of play you, an 18-year-old player just entering the world championship, should make?
In contrast to DK's complaints, Luo Ji remained quite indifferent.

no way.

He is a swordsman, but not a sword immortal. If at this moment he has a full head of white hair, is born with double pupils, and is born into royalty, with branches and leaves spreading everywhere, and can control the world's troops with his own strength, and in his later years rides a Kui ox, wearing a crimson robe with white cranes and holding a precious sword.

He'll kill as many as the enemy comes.

Unfortunately, he is not like that. Right now, he still needs to farm minions aggressively to develop his strength so that he can fight the enemy Fiora in a solo lane with no turrets.

They failed to catch Luo Ji this time.

That.
The round that belonged to DK has ended again, and the next starting point for both sides will revolve around the second wave of Rift Herald.

But at this moment, Xu Xiu felt as if he had forgotten something very important, but for the time being, he couldn't recall that fleeting inspiration.

Yet, deep down, I am very certain.

The opposing team is definitely holding back a big push, waiting for the next team fight to widen the gap completely.

At the same time, the V5 players' bench.

"How much more is needed to hang the spirit?"

"We'll definitely be able to get back home in the next wave. There were no problems with the vanguard team before. Thanks, brothers."

"Thanks for going, Chicken Bro. After Chicken Bro got flashed, I bet there are tons of people online cursing him."

"I don't care, I've gotten used to being criticized over the years."

Compared to the calmness of the DK side.

The V5 players were chatting and laughing in the voice chat, showing no particular emotion because it was the group stage of the World Championship or because their opponents were LCK teams. The three core players, top, mid, and jungle, all appeared very relaxed.

This atmosphere.

This also subconsciously affected Xiao Yan and PPGOD.

soon.

As time passed, the time for the second vanguard team arrived. For this vanguard, DK even abandoned the creep wave and took the initiative to try to seize vision of the river.

And at this point...

Many viewers, with an omniscient perspective, finally discovered V5's scheme.

"The support item wasn't upgraded?"

"That's not right. Riel also roamed, so why did Riel level up but Lenata didn't?"

"and many more!"

"V5's initial move of releasing the Herald and their interference in the mid lane!?"

It's not just the spectators outside the venue.

Inside the venue.

The DK members, belatedly realizing something was wrong, were also covered in sweat.

How could they forget this?!

Patch 14.18 was a patch where all enchanter supports, except for Yuumi, were tank supports. Why "except for Yuumi"? Because Yuumi not only had the support build, but also the magic support build, and the magic support build was strong in the World Championship patch.

In summary.

The World Championship is a meta dominated by tanky support champions.

As long as you're playing a tank support, roaming is inevitable. Roaming slows down the upgrade speed of your support item. The most outrageous example is Meiko's game where he played Titan support and his support item didn't upgrade for a full twenty minutes.

PPGOD's Rui'er did indeed roam in the first wave.

But there was only that one wave.

After catching them, they immediately returned to the city and headed to the bottom lane. Although there were losses, they were not significant. Unlike DK, Varus and Lena's journey from their base to the top river was fraught with difficulties, as they were intercepted on their way back, which took a lot of time.

It was such a tiny flaw.

V5 capitalized on PPGOD's gold item being placed before the Vanguard team fight, successfully leveling up the enemy support before them.

Poor visibility is now established!

but
DK, who failed to notice the situation immediately, were now all near the upper river.

They've already come all this way, so it's not easy or feasible for them to retreat now; they can't afford to lose out on this huge opportunity.

Then we have no choice but to bite the bullet and fight.

If it weren't for the fact that the big tree had a son that could provide a brief view, it would be a different story.

at the moment.

DK even played games in the dark.

Should we go?

"We're not in a hurry to let them take the lead. Having vision gives us room for error. They're the ones who should be worried now."

now.

On V5's side, everyone could feel the glimmer of victory.

This wave.

Dude, they're basically playing the game with the whole map open. If they can lose, they're unworthy of being LPL's number one seed.

Thinking of this, the momentum of V5 gradually increased, and under this pressure, DK took the initiative to engage the refreshed Vanguard.

"Finally, they've given us an opening!"

In situations where visibility is limited.

DK's limited vision even extended to the top lane of the dragon pit, leading them to speculate that Lissandra would be hiding there to initiate team fights. However, in reality, Rookie's Lissandra was constantly lingering near the wall opposite the red side's F6 camp.

The view from above the dragon pit is not visible from this location.

And
From this position, Lissandra's E skill can slightly block a section of the wall model, making her entry into the fray even more unpredictable.

E [Glacier Trail]!
The instant the Ice Maiden made her move, PPGOD and Luo Ji each took a step forward, but only one step. This subtle movement made the DK members frown.

Is it about to open?
Who's driving?

Is it Yone near the top lane, or Riven near the mid lane? I didn't see Lissandra above the river. If it is Lissandra...
and many more!

Ice Maiden!?
Just as Canyon suddenly realized what he had overlooked, from a god's-eye view, under the astonished gaze of all the viewers, the Ice Maiden, who had passed through the wall, successfully appeared in the dragon pit in an instant using her E skill to teleport.

Mythical item [Push Stick] for further movement.

Immediately after
"freeze!"

In that instant before almost everyone in the Death Knight class could react, he unleashed his overwhelming icy energy!

"not good!"

DK and his group reacted quickly and tried to activate their summoner spells.

Being able to make a quick judgment and choice doesn't mean you can successfully execute it. To put it bluntly, your brain might have reacted, but your hands might not have reacted at all!

The entire Longkengkou area.

Taliyah, Varus, and even Lenata were frozen almost instantly.

Kellin reacted quickly and unleashed his ultimate move.

But even the fastest impromptu reaction couldn't outmaneuver PPGOD's long-planned scheme. With the Ice Maiden's control, PPGOD's Riel entered the fray and wreaked havoc among the Death Knights.

Even if she is hit by a hostile takeover, it doesn't matter. Rui'er's ultimate skill will not be canceled because Rui'er herself is controlled.

Niu Guli was in a hurry.

Very urgent.

The moment he saw his teammates being picked off one after another, he was already desperately searching for Yone, relying on his extensive gaming experience.

But it wasn't found.

Yone was no longer in the river. He knew Fiora had a W skill that could block his ultimate. He must have been out of his mind to use his ultimate on his teammate in front of the enemy.

"Shh!"

flash.

With the same displacement attack and the same dash into the dragon pit, they first entered the dragon pit and then chose the landing position of the ultimate skill. Thanks to the release of Ryle's ultimate skill, the entire DK mid, jungle and support were almost all sucked together.

Then
"One sword to slay evil."

"One sword to suppress the soul."

R [Sealed Dust, Severed Thoughts]!
Nothing unexpected happened.

From the very beginning, the moment they decided to design team fights around DK's support item phase, DK's fate was sealed.

The lack of vision means that all DK players will subconsciously stick together.

When you lose sight of something.

People tend to subconsciously gravitate towards safe places, and the location of teammates is what people subconsciously perceive as a "safe place."

This is not wishful thinking, but human nature.

The goal is to limit the location of most of the DKs to the vicinity of the Dragon Pit.

Then.

V5's chosen ultimate-focused lineup makes it difficult for them to land their ultimates in this area, and once their ultimates are chained together, DK will have absolutely no chance of winning.

Once the ultimate move is successfully initiated, it's unstoppable.

Because of its high firepower.

Just like that...
A sniper rifle also requires: wind speed, humidity, temperature, distance, ballistics, light, terrain...

And the cannon: Bomb this whole area!
A beautiful team fight unfolded successfully in the upper river, and the DK players, after landing from the control area, each came up with their own unique strategies.

However, at this moment, they were no longer thinking about how to win the team battle, but rather how to escape and survive.

Deokdam, who had just used his ultimate skill to imprison Luo Ji and the others, had just used Flash to try to break free.

next second.

Then he saw a purple aurora that suddenly traversed the entire battlefield and arrived in front of him.

Q: [Icathia's torrential rains]

The perfect harvesting conditions have arrived!
Kai'Sa!

How could he forget that the enemy AD carry also has Kai'Sa?!
Xiao Yan was having an incredibly satisfying time reaping the rewards. A bunch of enemies were left with low health, and DK had used up a lot of their skills. When faced with his ultimate move, DK and his group, who were low on health and low on status, didn't even have a first reaction to turn around and kill AD.

But run!
They desperately searched for a place to escape.

finally.

In a team fight where V5 was crushing the underdog, a Vanguard team fight resulted in an amazing 4-for-0 exchange!
This is the players' section.

Xiao Yan and PPGOD watched as DK players died one after another in front of them.

I was deeply moved.

Before the game.

The idea that Luo Ji once mentioned—that while we should be wary of LCK teams, we shouldn't have any romantic feelings towards them—has resurfaced in their minds.

Did they become this powerful without us even realizing it?
Subconsciously.

They thought back to their victory at MSI.

Despite the months that had passed, their burning desire for victory ignited a gleam in their eyes at that moment.

This longing.

It was fueling their unconscious fervor, and making them tremble.
