You actually want me to...

"Zi!"

With the chains activated and Electrocute triggered, Chovy's LeBlanc was developing incredibly smoothly. With just three skills combined with Electrocute, he instantly reduced Lucian's health by more than half. Seeing Xin Zhao disarm, Renekton land, and Varus raise his bow in the distance, while he himself was in a desperate situation after initiating a team fight, JKL knew it was time to unleash his ultimate.

"A-Ban, save me!!!"

The moment he finished shouting, an exasperated voice finally rang out in the team's earpiece: "Damn it, you were so cocky when you were showing off, but now that something's happened, you only think of me when you need someone to clean up your mess?"

Just as Morgan landed and used his E skill, preparing to use E-Flash to take down the controlled Lucian.

Holy light descends!

Final Chapter: Chapter Forty-Two: "Hidden Skill"

"TES has a big advantage right now, but they still lack a strong initiator. If they can't get team fights going, they won't be able to break through HLE's second tower for a while. Their defensive wards are too good."

"There's nothing we can do about it. In the past, when Aban organized group buys, no one was worried about this."

"But it's okay, TES has a huge advantage right now, it's just a matter of a few more minutes... Wait, Lucian charged in? JackeyLove is actually initiating the team fight with his own body? HLE is in, can he dodge?"

"He dodged it, but Chovy's chains are locked. The crocodile landed, and we're doomed. This is going to be a disaster."

Just as Colonel Guan was about to deliver the death sentence to Lu Xian, a milky white light shone on the battlefield, completely devouring the mysterious power that had been binding Lu Xian.

Crucible

At this crucial moment, Roland's first piece of equipment, which he had just crafted a few dozen seconds earlier, finally proved its worth.

That's right, it's a crucible.

Normally, Nami's item build would involve Imperial Command and Flowing Staff, which would provide high damage output while also giving the AD carry a significant movement speed boost, making it easier for them to mechanic. However, Roland knew he couldn't build her that way.

The one who understands Lao Liu best will always be Lao Liu, and similarly, the one who understands Lang Bi best will always be Lang Bi.

With such a huge advantage from Lu Xian, this guy is bound to play like a wild horse. Roland didn't even make a fuss when he bought Redemption, but with this item, there's a notification in the chat box as soon as you buy it, so this guy's daring to play so recklessly is probably because he saw it.

"Holy crap, what a great crucible!"

The moment the light appeared, Lu Xian attacked again with a basic attack. Once his E skill's cooldown was over, he used another slide to create distance.

Then...

Q【The Prison of Azure Waves】

Unfortunately, since this time it wasn't under the tower and it wasn't Roland himself who was targeted, the timing and angle of the bubble release weren't particularly tricky, giving the enemy Renekton a chance to flash.

With the W skill "Poison Heal," Lu Xian's health visibly recovered, allowing him to escape the danger zone.

At this moment, the main TES team finally caught up.

Engaging in team fights with his own body and using the AD carry to bait enemies—these actions would seem out of place anywhere else, but they seem quite normal in the TES team. This is especially striking when you see Lu Xian still actively fighting on the front lines of the battlefield despite his low health.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! Don't let a single one escape."

"Be careful with your health; you'll die if you get controlled even slightly."

"Ignore me, Zhao Xin is about to die, get him."

The moment JKL finished speaking, Lu Xian suddenly dashed a great distance towards Zhao Xin's position. Before anyone could react, he used a Whirlwind + QAA combo to take down the enemy Zhao Xin, who was low on health.

HLE and his group: ? ? ?

TES team: ? ? ?

Audience members outside the venue: ? ? ?

"Damn, you still have strong winds?"

“Yeah.” JKL replied calmly, without considering what outrageous things he had just said.

"So you were still able to get hit by LeBlanc's E just now?"

"I couldn't have just used a powerful wind to push forward during that wave, could I? That would have been suicide."

"Then you'll use it to run away."

"Oh, buddy, I forgot."

Seeing that this guy looked like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, everyone knew that he just didn't want to waste the active effect of Gale. A person who values ​​offense more than life itself would naturally use this thing to kill people.

As for what to do with the enraged, fully charged crocodile in front of you after you've finished off the enemy...

"Holy crap, help! I'm going to die!"

The remaining four members of TES: ......

At this point, the HLE players had gone crazy. From the moment they failed to kill Lu Xian in the team fight, it meant that all their previous actions had been in vain. However, as the weaker side, they had already anticipated the outcome of the match. It was normal for the fourth seed from the LCK to lose to the first seed from the LPL, wasn't it? As long as they could try to show some of the TES style, that would be enough.

But now, the goal has changed.

This squishy AD is provoking me like this, it would be hard to accept not killing him. TES's lineup already has little control from Gwen and Blade of the Ruined King, and the control-filled Lissandra is running off to find HLE's backline. So now, facing this Lucian who is actively E in to get kills, the Renekton with full rage and ultimate is undoubtedly the most likely target to kill him.

but...

Lucian wasn't the only one who saved his abilities in this team fight.

R [Roar of the Raging Waves]

With a simple gesture, Nami transformed the entire match into a classic Pokémon Platinum game.

Nami used [Surf].

The effect is outstanding!

Nobody could have predicted that the game would turn out like this, with the AD carry in danger multiple times, the jungler dying, the top laner making a last-ditch effort, and then the support still had his ultimate ability on him?

What a fuss!

"Wait... why do you still have a special move?"

JKL was dumbfounded. He thought that he had been selling for so long, and this guy had probably already used his ultimate to divide the battlefield. With the battle so chaotic, he didn't have time to keep an eye on whether Nami had used her ultimate. He didn't expect that you were also a stingy old man.

"Nonsense, if Zhao Xin uses his ultimate and gets right at the front, am I just giving the enemy an ultimate for free?"

"But I was fired."

"You've been caught out by the enemy team hundreds or thousands of times. Bobo has saved all his skills for you in this team fight, are you still going to fight? Stop talking nonsense, you've been buffed, go and feed!" With a wave of his staff, the E skill [Tidal Blessing] was once again applied to Lu Xian. With Nami's passive speed boost and the barrier of her ultimate, JKL finally escaped from the enemy's clutches.

After finishing everything, Roland ignored the front row and began to deal with the convergence of enemy troops that no one was paying attention to.

Is such that.

Since he's a support, if he goes up now, he'll just be a battlefield observer, doing absolutely nothing except waiting for skill cooldowns and spectating. In that case, he might as well stay quietly and steal some minions, waiting for his skills to cool down before going up.

With no more deadly threats, Lu Xian went on a rampage in the remaining game.

Don't be fooled by his small size and the fact that he's being chased and attacked from the front. It all depends on the situation. Just like in a fight, it's not all about who's stronger, because a person's strength is actually limited. If it were a proper ring fight, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson could beat Master Chen, but in a street fight, where the one with more ruthlessness and grappling experience wins, many fighters who have studied systematic boxing techniques are not effective in street fights. If it were just the two of them facing off, I have no doubt that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would be knocked down by a dump truck.

That's how it is now.

Lu Xian's high damage output is one thing, but now he has two guardians on the left and right sides, and in front of him is an Ice Maiden who has just emerged from her golden body to provide support.

How could he lose when it's 4 against 1?

HLE is completely in chaos.

Settled: Chapter 43: You, do you understand what I mean?

[Indiscriminate slaughter!]

[When it comes to watching matches, you have to watch TES; it's all about the thrill!]

[Que Shi, when Lu Xian charged forward, my mind went completely blank. How could he dare to do that?]

[A classic AD carry initiates team fights with his tanky body; if it weren't for BanHull playing a support, I would have almost forgotten that JKL is no pushover either.]

Unlike Group A, which was an internal LPL battle, watching that match was like wasting time and suffering, as you would feel disgusted no matter who won. Although Group B was a battle between Europe and Korea, T1's victory also made LPL viewers feel somewhat uncomfortable.

In other words, it feels like you spent money but didn't get the satisfaction you wanted; after all, time is money.

But TES is different. Regardless of whether it's the number one seed playing against the number four seed, just ask yourself if you enjoyed watching it?

They must be fucking ecstatic!

tactics?

They'll crush you online, crush you in small groups, and even crush your operations team—that's how invincible they are!

Especially for LPL fans, the thrill of crushing LCK teams is no less than warming a cockroach with sunshine, refreshing it with wasabi, disinfecting it with medicated oil, and treating it with 220V. The pleasure is comparable to the "living devils" in the cockroach section of a certain website.

When HLE's team fight collapsed and their second tower fell, the game was essentially over.

This is the mainstream strategy in S11: quickly push the second tower to force vision control, and then launch a large-scale attack to pressure the enemy jungler's jungle. In the current version, jungle experience and gold are already much weaker than in previous versions. If the enemy forces the jungler to retreat, he won't even be able to farm. This is why HLE's jungler is Xin Zhao, who can withstand some damage thanks to his ultimate ability. If it were anyone else, they would be instantly vaporized in a team fight.

As HLE's jungler's development environment became increasingly pressured, the economic gap between the two teams continued to widen.

finally,

TES managed to drag the game out until Roland acquired his second god-tier item: Mejai's Soulstealer, before finally launching a major push and ending the match.

Two to zero.

The two victories were not only exhilarating, like cutting melons and vegetables, but also quite mindlessly broke through the mental defenses of the HLE members.

In the third game, HLE started to play haphazardly, and Roland, seeing this, also started to play recklessly. After banning various bugged combinations in the bottom lane, he had his teammates pull out a Swain despite the draft disadvantage, and even more ridiculously, they still won.

With the final explosion of the high ground crystal, TES successfully defeated HLE and advanced to the semifinals!

【666666】

[This is really cruel! They've practically turned the third game into a skin-themed game, huh? I love it.]

[Give us more matches that crush the LCK! I'll watch as many as there are matches like tonight's, I'm willing to stay up all night.]

Do you even understand what the true value of being a war god in international combat means? (hands on hips)

Throughout the entire history of LPL professional play, the only players who have truly achieved success and can be considered "gods of war" in the fight against Korean teams are Xiye from WE and JKL from TES. Both of them have a winning record in international competitions, especially against LCK teams, and they also have a particularly absurd characteristic: they tend to lose to their own teammates.

Except for a brief period of brilliance in S7, Xiye has mostly been getting crushed in the LPL.

While JKL wasn't quite that badly off, from another perspective, he wasn't much better off either. Perhaps it was because he had once provoked the eternal god that the god punished him, making his support roles from then on no longer be of any normal quality.

Like a past life

Two years of Blue Bro, one year of Prophet, one year of Zhuo Bro, and finally Mark, who's passable.
