Rebirth is fine, but I get eight hundred dollars right from the start?

The Shadow Master moves close to the minion wave to gain experience to reach level six.

An Bixin knew that this was his last chance.

His fingers moved almost before his brain—the large red potion "Resilience Potion" was double-clicked in his inventory, and Riven was instantly surrounded by a dark red aura of enhancement, causing her attack power to jump sharply on the stat panel.

Immediately after pressing the R key, the broken sword emitted a piercing hum, and a light blade surged and extended from the blade, with azure energy flowing and churning along the edge of the blade.

"I've been wandering for so long!"

Q1 moves forward, and Q2 follows closely behind.

laugh!

A has arrived!

There was no flash to get close, nor was there any blind use of E to close the distance.

Riven's damage is indeed very high, but Zed's burst damage is equally formidable.

The E skill's shield needs to be used to resist a certain amount of damage from the opponent.

Just then, a dark shadow brushed past the hero.

Pay W?

good chance!

"Oh, we see Riven going all out with her ultimate, using a big health potion, she's going to fight to the bitter end."

"Q part one closes in, Q part two plus a basic attack is done, the damage is very considerable."

"What do you say, should we temporarily avoid a confrontation?"

The chat in the Korean live stream paused briefly, then exploded like a lit firecracker—

[Wow, Anbixin is on the way!! Riven's damage is terrifying!]

[Using the ultimate red potion and going all in, they're betting everything!]

Emperor is quitting! He definitely has to quit! He can't take all this damage!

[Don't retreat, don't retreat, don't retreat! An Bixin, just smash his face with your triple Q!]

[Damn, my heart is about to jump out of my chest!]

Not only the Korean audience, but also the entire venue erupted in gasps of surprise. In the front row, Lin Shu's die-hard fans clenched their hands in front of their chests, leaned forward involuntarily, and stared wide-eyed.

Will the emperor abdicate?

The tone is read as a question, but it is actually an affirmation.

On the big screen, the Shadow Master not only didn't retreat, but instead made a move that made everyone gasp.

Lin Shu's W skill was used almost at the same moment Riven's second QA landed. The black shadow flew past Riven's flank and behind her, and then the second part of W was activated at lightning speed to swap positions—Zed's main body disappeared into thin air and appeared behind Riven.

"I guessed right!"

On the players' bench, An Bixin was overjoyed.

That's what he predicted.

Riven's third Q has a long cast animation, and Emperor's reaction speed is definitely fast enough to dodge it, so he didn't intend to use the third Q to chase her down at all—this move is meant to be used as a counter-attack.

He has already used one Q to reposition; if he misses all three Qs, he will have no chance of a solo kill.

Therefore, you need to predict where Zed's W will land, use Flash W to control the opponent, and then follow up with the three-part Q to knock them up. This way, he can deal all the damage of his ultimate during the control time.

So, within a fraction of a second after the second QA hit, he frantically pressed Flash. A burst of golden light flashed, and Riven's position instantly turned 180 degrees, facing the shadow of Zed who had just landed.

"Drink!"

[The Soul-Suppressing Roar!]

When Riven's W skill is activated, green energy explodes from the center, creating a shockwave that spreads outwards.

However, they managed to control nothing.

The true form of the calamity is not there.

Anbixin's pupils suddenly contracted.

Hehehe

On the big screen, Lin Shu's Zed pressed the R key on Riven in the same frame as W swapped positions.

The signature laugh of Zed's ultimate move, [Forbidden Art - Instant Shadow Assassination Array], exploded in Riven's ears as Zed transformed into three dark shadows that coiled around Riven's body.

Ultimate skill grants invincibility frames to avoid stun!

"Oh My God!!!"

"Ultimate move!"

"Anbixin predicted the landing point of Emperor's W, while Emperor simultaneously predicted that Riven would Flash W and dodge the ultimate."

The doll and Miller shouted wildly.

Meanwhile, the Korean commentators' tone shifted from excitement to icy despair: "Ampixin's Flash-W missed... He used all his abilities—Flash, health potion, ultimate, W—but... Emperor used his ultimate to avoid the most crucial crowd control. This... this is utterly hopeless."

The Korean comments section instantly changed its tone:

【ah?????】

[How could someone dodge that??? Is that even possible for a human to react to?]

[When Anbixin flashed and used W, Emperor had already activated his ultimate; he clearly pressed R beforehand!]

[It wasn't just quick reaction; it was anticipation. He anticipated that Anbixin would anticipate the landing point of his W move.]

My God, is this kind of psychological warfare even possible for humans...?

[An Bixin is finished. He's used all his skills. This is going to be a disaster.]

Throughout the game, Lin Shu's expression remained unchanged.

Those eyes were fixed on the screen, the pupils reflecting the intertwined images of the three afterimages of the enemy, while the right hand moved between the mouse and the keyboard, leaving an almost blurry afterimage.

The moment his ultimate skill landed, he didn't rush to deal damage.

I didn't use my basic attack, I didn't use my E skill, and I didn't use my Q skill.

He did one thing first—a double DF combo. He applied Ignite to Riven's head, and the Burning debuff dealt its first hit of damage. At the same time, he flashed, and Zed's position slid from in front of Riven to her side and behind her in almost the same frame.

puff!

The next second, Riven's third Q landed heavily on the spot where Zed's ultimate had just landed.

The ground was cracked, and gravel flew everywhere, but there was only air left.

Anbixin's last trump card has been played.

"Another prediction!" Miller couldn't control his voice anymore. "Emperor used Flash to dodge Riven's three-part Q knock-up! He calculated that Ambition would hit him with three parts of Q after his R landed—Ambition could only rely on three parts of Q to recover his control chain after missing his Flash W, but Emperor even factored that in!"

Doll: "It's over. No matter how high the damage is, how can you fight if you can't even touch anyone?"

The entire audience almost simultaneously stopped breathing, then burst out like balloons that had been held back for too long being punctured.

The Korean commentator was completely devastated: "Ambition's third Q also missed... Riven used all her skills, only managing to land the auto-attack from the second QA combo. And Zed still has almost half his health left, and Ignite is still burning... This is hopeless."

Anbixin's mind went almost blank at that moment.

He subconsciously pressed his E skill "Charge Forward," trying to make a final stand—to use the shield to withstand some damage and then chase after the enemy to deliver one last basic attack.

But at the very moment he used his E skill to dash out, Lin Shu activated the second stage of his ultimate skill.

Zed's main body returned to the position of the shadow mark above Riven's head, while the shadow of W and the clone left by R formed a three-point encirclement.

Whoosh—!

Three dark figures covered half of the road, their afterimages intertwining as they shifted and changed shape. Under the high-speed camera lens, the audience could not distinguish which one was the real body.

The chat was flooded with comments like crazy:

[Holy crap, three flowers at the top!!]

[Zed's W shadow, R clone, and main body positioning completely confused Riven!]

This isn't manipulation; it's magic.

[Did you see Anbixin clearly? I didn't, but I was deeply shocked.]

[E-God's hand speed is so fast that I have to watch it three times in slow motion to keep up...]

[Brothers from the Anti-Japanese War forum, come out and write some poems!]

The sound of keyboards clattering and clicking filled the air.

Riven's main body QE, W shadow QE, and ultimate shadow QE—the damage from these three sets of skills poured into her body almost simultaneously. Her shuriken flew across from three angles, and Riven's health bar felt like it had been struck by three blades at the same time. The hero jumped off a cliff from half health.

"Three Flowers Gather at the Top! All three skill sets hit! Damage is instantly maximized!"

The doll's voice was beyond excited; it was practically a shout: "Riven has Ignite on her and has taken the second detonation damage from Zed's ultimate—no champion can withstand this kill threshold!"

boom--!

The shadow mark of "Forbidden Technique" exploded within Riven's body with a deafening roar that echoed throughout the stadium's sound system.

Riven's massive blade of light was still suspended in mid-air at the last moment, but the hand holding the sword had already fallen limply.

The broken sword struck the ground with a crisp metallic clang, and the female warrior slowly collapsed, her health reduced to zero. A kill announcement popped up in the center of the screen—

First Blood!

LPL-Emperor has eliminated OGN-Ambition!

An Bixin slumped in his chair, his hands slipping off the mouse and keyboard, his fingertips trembling slightly.

He stared at the gray kill notification on the screen, his lips moved a few times, but in the end he didn't utter a single word.

Miller was even more overwhelmed: "My goodness!"

"Anbixin had used every trick in the book: using Q, deceiving the shadow, predicting the position swap, and using the big red potion to force an opening. Every step was calculated to the extreme, but it all failed in the face of Emperor's level 6 Shadow Shift, which was hard to tell from the real one."

Every step was the optimal solution that Anbixin could think of.

But the person on the other side dismantled all his "optimal solutions" into worthless pieces of paper.

In the South Korean commentary booth, the two commentators remained silent for three seconds.

That silence was more deadly than any wailing.

Then one of them finally spoke, his voice sounding like it was being squeezed from his throat: "Anbixin... he's already pushed Riven's solo potential to its limit in this patch. But Emperor..."

He paused, as if considering his words, and finally gave a bitter laugh. "The Zed in Emperor's Zed is different from the Zed that we all understand."

The other's voice was noticeably hoarse: "Under Emperor's guidance, the skill ceiling for Zed has been pushed to a level we've never seen before. 'Three Flowers Gathering at the Top'... This name was given by Chinese players, but you have to admit, it's a name that's despair-inducingly apt. Three figures attacking simultaneously, each skill landing with perfect precision—this kind of skill can't be achieved through mere 'practice'."

"This is the best in the world!"
