LPL History

Chapter 94 Three Paths Lost, Trapped in a Desperate Situation, Dragon Stuck on Shallow Beach, Lone Moon Shines Alone, Silver Blade Dances on the Edge of the Moon (Fourth Update)
The scene of RapidStar losing control in front of the camera resonated deeply with many people.

Rotten Root directly stated on social media—

"See? I'm just sweating a little more, but he's driving some people crazy. You have no idea how much pressure you have to face when dealing with Lion."

The netizens below replied to him—

"Yes, you just wet your pants."

Lu Benwei and Uzbekistan were having a lively and vivid discussion at the base.

"Damn it, I told you long ago that losing to WE wasn't my fault at all! I, Lu Benwei, am no worse than any other mid laner in the world! Except for this freak."

He explained to PDD in a very serious manner:

"The one I was arguing with that day could not have been Ruofeng, it must have been this Lion. I swear on my acne."

The intermittent sobbing coming through the team voice chat plunged the entire Frost team into a state of despair.

RapidStar's hand holding the mouse was trembling uncontrollably.

Upon returning online and seeing Diana, I immediately experienced a stress response.

Stay far away and only use your Q skill to last-hit minions under the tower.

Zhou Li couldn't even see the cards in his field of vision; he could only see playing cards flying out of the darkness.

After regaining control of the mid lane, Zhou Li called Ming Kai, mounted his mount, and began sweeping through Frost's jungle.

Frost, however, did not sit idly by and wait to die.

After Twisted Fate's ultimate ability was ready, under Madlife's command, they continued to chase and gank Strawberry in the top lane.

WE, on the other hand, focused their efforts on Frost's bottom lane, launching a four-man gank on the bottom lane.

Due to the influence of hero characteristics, although WE had a slight lead in kills, it was Jayce in the top lane who took down the first tower first, and the economic gap between the two sides was not significant.

The key turning point came during the lane swap after Jayce pushed down the tower.

Perhaps it was because TheShy consistently had an advantage in the top lane throughout the three games that he became the most confident player on the Frost team.

After pushing down the top lane tower, TheShy confidently switched lanes to the mid lane.

"Jayce has now moved to the mid lane, and he seems to want to put pressure on Lion! Looking at the economy of both sides, TheShy and Lion are about the same, but because Lion has built a Mejai's Soulstealer, Jayce's equipment seems to be better in terms of equipment stats alone."

Jayce's damage output was actually very high during this period.

If the QE-enhanced shockwave hits, the hammer form can kill Diana with a single combo.

However, TheShy clearly didn't realize that Diana could also kill him in one combo.

When TheShy's QE attempt to poke missed, he still tried to press Diana with auto-attacks, only to be met with Diana's counter-attack with QR!

Jayce's death in the mid lane completely wiped out Forst's only advantage.

WE began to compress map resources, destroying all of Frost's outer towers and changing the kill ratio to 9:3.

Faced with this situation, even Quan Yongjun couldn't help but sigh pessimistically:

"Wow... the game is completely in WE's rhythm now. WE is a team that can seize an advantage very well. Once they snowball, it's suffocating for other teams... especially this Diana. Now, as long as someone appears in his line of sight, he can kill them instantly! Now they're going to group up and push mid again! Frost, is there still a chance...?"

On the official live streaming website, South Korean netizens are currently crying and wailing.

Wow! Lion! He's terrifying!

Stop, Lion! Are you trying to ruin Korean esports?!

[This Diana is terrifying. She charged right into a full-health Graves and he died instantly. Why is her damage so high?]

If this keeps up, Diana's Mejai's Soulstealer will be maxed out again.

[What a disgrace! There was absolutely no need to hold any League of Legends tournaments; this game has no fairness.]

Yes, League of Legends is a trash game; we should focus on StarCraft competitions.

[I'm telling you, League of Legends won't become popular.]

Given the current situation, what is Frost's win rate?

Wow, if we don't unplug WE's network cable, it seems like we really have no chance!

Let's all pray that all five members of WE lose internet access!

In this desperate situation, the prayers of South Korean netizens seem to have truly created a miracle!

In the live stream, the WE team members who had destroyed Frost's second tower stood motionless in place!
It really looks like it's disconnected!
Quan Yongjun paused for a moment, then asked in confusion:
"Oh? What happened?! It looks like we've lost connection? Why is everyone so still?"

He looked at the Frost members who were still testing the waters and said:

"But Frost seems to be working perfectly fine. Is it faking a disconnection?"

WE player seat.

Seeing the disconnection notification that suddenly popped up, Zhou Li frowned and shouted:
"Referee, pause the game, we've lost connection!" (*)

The referee strolled over slowly and said:

"Um, what did you say? Shall I have the translator come up?"

Zhou Li instantly flew into a rage and cursed:
"Damn it! I'm speaking Korean, can't you understand me?"

Then came the phrase "national essence".

"Fuck your mother, you Korean!"

Hearing Zhou Li's angry outburst, the referee, who had initially intended to feign ignorance, gave an awkward smile.

"Oh, you're speaking Korean. Did the game disconnect? I'll talk to the referee team in a bit."

Meanwhile, on the other side is Frost's player bench.

Seeing the WE team suddenly stop moving, the Frost team members were somewhat puzzled.

Shy, controlling Jayce, tentatively fired a powerful shot, which directly hit three members of WE!
However, WE still did not react at all.

"Did they disconnect?"

Woong, controlling Graves, began to advance and auto-attack. Seeing that WE still hadn't retaliated, he excitedly shouted:
"They've disconnected!!"

Madlife immediately shouted:
"Kill them! Kill them!" (*)

CloudTemplar hesitated for a moment: "Killing them won't make a difference, they've disconnected, and the match will be replayed later."

"Shut up! Don't worry about that!" MadLife yelled in annoyance. "Give all the kills to Woong! Everyone stop fighting and let Graves get all the kills!"

【Double Kill! 】

[Trible Kill!]

Quadra kill!

[Penta kill!!]

Graves was racking up kills for WE, and this scene was broadcast live all over the world!

Mars Live.

Su Xiaoyan looked at the live stream and exclaimed in confusion:

"What's going on? Why did WE suddenly stop moving? Did they disconnect? But why is there no problem on Frost's side?!"

Guns N' Roses also shouted:
"They must have disconnected! What is Frost doing?! He knew WE was disconnected, but he kept playing?! And he even gave all the kills to the ADC?!"

During Joker's voice chat, an extremely sharp voice came through.

"Damn it! What are these guys doing? Don't stop me, I'm going to find their event organizers, I'm going to wake them up!!"

In the live stream, after Frost killed five members of WE, he didn't stop and immediately started pushing down the middle!

Amidst a barrage of question marks from netizens around the world, Frost successively destroyed WE's outer mid-lane tower and second tower, and even pushed all the way to the high ground, destroying WE's high ground crystal!
"What are the organizers doing?! Why aren't they suspending the match?!"

Guns N' Roses' questioning echoed in the live broadcast room, but the match continued.

"Should we take it all in one go? Should we take it all in one go?!"

Woong shouted excitedly in the voice chat.

MadLife thought for a moment and said, "Don't end the game in one fell swoop. If you end the game now, there will be no room for maneuver. Shy, go push down the top lane turret. Woong, go take the bottom lane turret!!" (*)

At this moment, Frost demonstrated the full extent of Korean-style operations.

On the WE player bench, Zhou Li looked at the Frost players who were still focused on their gameplay and asked:

"What are they doing? Don't tell me the game is still going on."

The referee paused, looking completely bewildered, and then said:

"We are currently communicating with the technical team to restore the network. We will know the specific situation later."

Golden Alliance Internet Cafe.

Wei Zhen stared at the live stream, looking puzzled.

The live stream has been interrupted, stopping at the moment when Frost destroyed WE's top and bottom second towers.

A classmate next to me asked a question:

"Why isn't WE moving? Are they just standing there and letting Frost kill them?"

Wei Zhen shook his head and said:

"They must have disconnected."

"So, will we have to reopen it later?"

"If someone disconnects, we definitely have to restart. This is a competition, not a ranked game."

Another person asked:
"Then why are these Koreans killing people and pushing towers? Are they just bored?"

Wei Zhen curled his lip.

"I don't know, I guess they can only vent their anger while WE is offline and helpless." "Hey! Let's begin!"

Wei Zhen refreshed the screen.

stunned for a moment.

"Huh? Why didn't it restart?! How could that bastard be such a beast?!"

WE player seat.

Zhou Li looked at the game screen that had been reconnected. All three outer towers and two inner towers of his team had been destroyed, and even the high ground crystal in the middle lane was gone.

He addressed the referee, saying, "What do you mean? Are you suggesting we continue the game like this?"

The referee pretended to be confused again.

"What do you mean?"

Zhou Li spoke up, "Our opinion? Do we need to be consulted in this situation? Shouldn't we just reopen it?"

Upon hearing Zhou Li's words, the referee this time didn't even bother with the pretense of "communicating with the referee team," but simply shook his head.

"I'm sorry, our current technical capabilities are not sufficient to restore the game to the point where you disconnected. Restarting would also be impossible due to time constraints."

Zhou Li was so angry he laughed.

Those Korean bastards, they really are a nation of sportsmanship, they've lost all shame in their pursuit of winning.

He smiled and asked:

"Are you sure you don't want us to replay the game?"

"It's confirmed that the match cannot be replayed." (*)

"Okay, don't say I didn't give you a chance."

Mingkai asked:

"Brother Zhou, what do you mean?"

Zhou Li stretched his neck and said calmly:

“They like to be treated like animals, so kill them like animals.”

Mars Live.

As the match continued, Su Xiaoyan spoke up:

"What's going on? Is the match just going to continue like this? Are the organizers serious?"

Guns N' Roses was clearly getting angry and immediately started swearing.

"Damn it, they have no shame at all, bullying our Chinese team like this!"

The viewers in the live stream were furious.

[Damn, why don't we restart this?!]

[Your mom disconnected and came back, and you were leading by 6,000 gold, but now you've been overtaken by 2,000?!]

[And Zhou Ge's Mejai's Soulstealer has all dropped.]

Have the Koreans lost all sense of shame?

[6666, if you can't beat them, just cut off their internet connection?]

[This is hilarious! Could it get any more fake? Only WE's team disconnected, but the Koreans were fine?]

Damn it, WE, stay calm, don't let this get to your morale.

[Those damn Koreans are disgusting.]

OGN Official Commentary Team.

Lee Hyun-kyung was relentlessly interrogating Jeon Yong-joon.

"Senior, why is the competition continuing like this?"

"WE has been disconnecting for a while, isn't that unfair?"

Why is only WE disconnected?

"Frost did so many things even though he knew WE was offline. Isn't that a lack of esports spirit?"

Jeon Yong-joon's forehead was sweating as Lee Hyun-kyung tortured him.

This woman, does she really think she's Chinese?

However, what he did was indeed somewhat dishonorable, and Quan Yongjun could only stammer as he said:

"Perhaps the technology is not mature enough. We will make some improvements in this area in the future to avoid such situations from happening again."

Meanwhile, netizens on Korean websites were extremely excited.

Because they petitioned to unplug WE's network cable, and it actually was unplugged!
Frost lived up to expectations and successfully turned the tide during this period!

That's absolutely inspiring!

For the Koreans, the process of the game is not important, as long as they can win!

[Hahaha! Even God couldn't stand WE anymore! They deserved it!]

Oh! It seems fate is on our side!

Fighting Frost! Don't let our prayers down!

The Republic of Korea will prevail!

WE player seat.

Compared to their initial helplessness, a surge of anger welled up in the hearts of the five people, with nowhere to vent it.

Zhou Li began by saying:

"Don't rush. Mingkai and Curly, you two come with me to the top half of the jungle and the Baron pit to set up vision. The rest of you, don't push too far out there for now. They've cleared all the vision in our jungle. Let's stall until we respawn at the high ground crystal."

Zhou Li and his two companions lit up the upper half of the map as they headed towards the Dragon Pit.

When Curly planted a ward in the Baron pit, as expected, Frost's five beasts were indeed attacking Baron!
"Frost is so despicable! Taking advantage of WE's lack of vision while they were defending the minion wave, they started attacking Baron! But WE realized it! Baron's health is already very low, do they even have a chance?!"

Su Xiaoyan leaned forward, almost touching the screen, wishing she could reach in and uproot the dragon, placing it on WE's base.

Zhou Li watched as the dragon's health rapidly decreased and said:

"Curly, get ready. I'm going down first. Mingkai, it's your turn now."

He glanced at Mingkai's punishment CD.

Fortunately, Mingkai isn't so overpowered that he knows to use Smite on the cannon minion before facing the enemy Baron.

Factory, you absolutely mustn't get too sticky right now!

Seeing that the dragon was about to be killed, Zhou Li only uttered one word.

"Enter!"

Curly had already gathered his strength and was heading towards the Dragon Pit!
While Curly's Q was sweeping through the two, Zhou Li took advantage of the vision created the moment the new scout ward landed and immediately used WRQR!!
The target is the giant worm fighting against the dragon!

Cho'Gath's ultimate ability deals massive damage to Baron Nashor. If you don't kill Cho'Gath instantly, the chances of Mingkai stealing Baron Nashor are almost zero.

"Wow! What happened! Cho'Gath was instantly killed!!"

The factory manager flashed into the dragon pit, used Smite, and secured the dragon buff!
"Holy crap!! WE is awesome!!!"

The cheers from the few hundred WE fans in the audience were no less loud than the cheers from the Koreans earlier!
But at the same time, Zhou Li's bright moon has been frozen in place by the card!
The Japanese woman's control abilities followed closely, and she was about to be instantly killed!
"Protect Brother Zhou! Protect Brother Zhou!"

In the voice chat, Mingkai excitedly shouted loudly, and with an Asian Binding, he bound Jayce who was attacking Diana, and even used his Q skill to knock back the Leona who was coming forward!

Curly Hair went even further, flashing directly into the dragon pit and unleashing his ultimate to knock back the Forst team!

Zhou Li, with low health, used Flash to enter the dragon pit, while Maokai and Janna were clearly unable to escape.

Frsot, on the other hand, seemed to have already made up his mind to kill.

RapidStar's card immediately activated its ultimate skill, about to strike Diana's face and leave Zhou Li behind.

At this moment, the usual playful smile was gone from Zhou Li's face.

He glanced at his skill cooldowns.

"Damn, if you like it, send it over!"

The card player landed with a yellow card and made a move.

However, the time it takes for Diana to fly with the yellow card is enough for her to unleash a QWR combo!

Twisted Fate's health plummeted instantly, and RapidStar unleashed his Q skill, but Diana's W shield was simply too thick!

[WE_lion (Diana) has defeated Azubu Frost (Twisted Fate)!!!]

The audio was MadLife swearing loudly.

"You son of a bitch! What the hell are you doing?!"

Quan Yongjun stared in disbelief at Jiaoyue, who was leaving calmly, and the dragon buff on her body.

"Wow... Lion... WE... They managed to kill two people and even take Baron Nashor in a 3v5 situation..."

Yunhaitai Beach is now as quiet as an open-air library.

After returning to the city, Zhou Li glanced at Mingkai and Juanmao's resurrection times.

After the two respawned, he targeted Frost's mid-lane inhibitor crystal.

"Push forward!"

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Li changed his mind and said:

"Kill but don't push."

(*The real-life prototype of the "Internet cable disconnection incident" is the Dragon Fight Cup finals held in South Korea in November 2012. WE was facing the Korean team KT.A. While leading, WE unilaterally disconnected their internet. During this time, KT.A killed WE members and destroyed WE's high ground. The tournament organizers refused to rematch. Due to the needs of the storyline, it is being used in this OGN tournament.)
