Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 376 Void Monster! The Art of the Mantis!

"Oh dear, the blind man is coming," the factory manager decided to avoid him and retreated from the bushes.

Miller nodded immediately upon hearing this: "Perhaps TheShy's positioning was too good this time, and Flandre couldn't come out to support in time, so Clearlove's decision to retreat is understandable."

"what?"

"What are you doing?" Miller's words were interrupted by the doll's surprised voice before he could finish speaking.

in the game.

The blind man slowly made his way towards the triangular bush, even cautiously testing the area with his Q skill at the very last moment.

Because the Kha'Zix stepped out of the bush beforehand, the Q skill missed.

Reassured, the blind man chose to continue his ascent, heading straight for the triangular patch of grass.

Judging that the time was about right, Li Luo controlled the mantis to enter the bushes, triggering the passive invisibility effect of his ultimate skill.

A fleeting, illusory light flashed, and just a second before the blind man entered the grass, a time difference was created, and he entered stealth mode.

The blind man walked into the bushes and then quickly walked out again.

"My god! What kind of snake-like maneuver is Clearlove doing now??? Doesn't Ning's Lee Sin realize there was someone in the bush just now?"

The scene caused an uproar upon witnessing this.

On the field, someone actually dared to use the mantis's invisibility to pull off such a sneaky, snake-like maneuver.

"Oh dear, it seems Prince Ning has discovered us. The blind man who came out of the bushes has returned. Let's see how the factory manager handles this."

The comical scene not only amused the doll and Miller, but also made the audience burst into laughter.

This is the first time in the game that someone has played jungle like this; it's just reckless!

Seeing the blind man about to enter the bush, Li Luo didn't hesitate and activated the first stage of his ultimate skill, invisibility, while simultaneously walking down the wall.

This is a little trick to block vision in the triangular bush on the top lane. As long as you can get behind the wall during the invisibility period, you won't be able to see the enemy behind the wall even if you are standing in the triangular bush.

"The factory manager activated his ultimate skill and went invisible again. Ning might have sensed something, but he has no evidence."

"Ning Wang probably doesn't know that the Mantis just narrowly escaped his stealth attack twice in a row."

"The darkest spot is right under your nose! It really is! The factory manager is both highly skilled and incredibly daring!"

Ig fans let out a scream, and the situation on the field changed instantly.

The blind man wanted to use the turret to catch Akali from behind, so he went straight to the bush above the red team's Krugs, trying to get behind the turret.

If we don't look at it from a god's-eye view, at this moment, Flandre is indeed surrounded by IG's top and jungle duo.

Saint Gun seemed startled and quickly retreated, which played right into Ning's hands.

Shy's Aatrox bypassed the turret, intending to give chase, but just as he reached the middle of the turret, Akali, who was still fleeing, countered with an RQ that hit Aatrox.

A praying mantis suddenly emerged from the grass where the blind man had just come out.

"They will never see me!"

Prince Ning was instantly stunned. After realizing what had happened, his face turned green, and he shouted, "Retreat!"

In the second round of ganks, the gap between the two players became even more apparent!
"Oh dear, this is an awkward position for the Blind Monk and the Sword Demon. There's nowhere for them to run!"

The blind man was only level 5, and even though the sword demon was level 6, it was to no avail.

At this moment, Flandre's attacks were all focused on Aatrox, and in an instant, half of Aatrox's health disappeared into thin air.

Li Luo, controlling the Mantis, unleashed a familiar AQAW combo on the Sword Demon without a word.

The terrifying burst of damage, combined with the high bonus damage from the Serrated Dagger, dealt a devastating blow to the Sword Demon who hadn't returned to base to replenish his supplies, instantly reducing his health to less than one-fifth.

Shy quickly activated his ultimate ability, hoping to use his Q skill to deal damage and heal Kha'Zix.

Seeing this, Li Luo didn't linger in the fight. He activated Kha'Zix's E skill, retreated a short distance, and extinguished Aatrox's hope of survival.

"There's no escape now, IG is doomed! Kha'Zix's counter-gank was absolutely brilliant!"

The two IG players on the scene were unaware of the presence of the Kha'Zix. Once the Kha'Zix appeared, the outcome of the game was already decided.

In such a top-level competition, even TheShy wouldn't be able to show off his skills without any equipment.

The next second, Akali's second ultimate skill swept across, and Aatrox, whose health was already at zero, collapsed to the ground.

Edg.Flandre killed ig.theshy
Without pausing for a moment, the two continued to unleash their attacks on the blind man.

At this moment, the blind man was caught between a rock and a hard place, unable to leave or stay. He could only put up a stubborn resistance and was beaten by the two men.

A few seconds later, the mantis secured another kill.

Edg.clearlove7 killed ig Ning.
Massive killing!

"Kha'Sai, another kill! IG's top laners were ambushed and wiped out!"

As the counter-gank ended, the crowd erupted in screams and applause.

"This counter-gank, all I can say is, it's so characteristic of Clearlove. I reckon Ning will be just like SofM now, reporting Clearlove for cheating again, hahaha."

Two days after the Demacia Cup ended, the official team betrayed SofM by revealing the reason for his suspension during the Demacia Cup and issued a special announcement to clarify that after official personnel checked both sides of the game, it was confirmed that there were no problems.

At the end of the official post, the account even tagged SofM's Weibo account and Suning's Weibo account, keeping netizens entertained with the gossip.

This kind of humiliating thing, ostensibly for the sake of game fairness, is actually just you losing to someone and then reporting them for cheating, which is incredibly shameful.

At this moment, the doll brought out this new meme, and the barrage of comments immediately exploded.

"Prince Ning, let's not put up with this. Let's just report him and that'll be the end of it!"

"How could I tolerate this? If I were Prince Ning, I would immediately call a timeout and launch a counter-protest."

"Brothers, this is TheShy. I reported Lee Sin for having a very low skill level. Was I right?"

"That's absolutely right, buddy, the flavor is too strong."

In this match, the two junglers were at their peak. Ning's two defeats show that no one can say he is too bad now; it just means that Clearlove is too strong!

"After this wave, IG completely collapsed! Putting aside the top lane, just the disadvantage in the bottom and mid lanes, and most importantly, Clearlove already has three kills! Three kills in less than eight minutes, this is a momentum that's about to take off!"

"Is the factory manager's mantis really that strong?" The more Miller thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed.

He started repeatedly praising the factory manager as awesome!
In an instant, the morale of IG fans plummeted, and even occasional cheers were hard to hear.

in the game.

After this wave, IG has indeed suffered a bit of a blow.

Most importantly, after two failures, Ning has completely lost his rhythm. Once Lee Sin can't make a move and gain an equipment advantage in the early and mid-game, he can only rely on his R skill to open up the game in the mid and late game.

However, the phrase "mid-to-late game" is a nightmare that IG can never face.

Without the jungler's help, Puff and Nanfeng couldn't stop the relentless attacks of Uzi and Meiko. Rookie, playing Yasuo in the mid lane, was caught off guard in the minion wave and lost a third of his health to Scout.

Even after dying once, the top laner Aatrox struggled to suppress Flandre's growth.

The fans who came to support IG were truly dumbfounded.

IG and EDG are both teams without a home venue, so most of their matches are held in Shanghai. Today, there are very few fans of other teams in the venue. Before coming, everyone had more or less decided which team they wanted to support.

However, as IG's situation worsened, many of the light sticks belonging to IG went out, while more light sticks belonging to EDG appeared.

Li Luo was also very aggressive when playing against other teams in the Demacia Cup, but at that time no one thought anything of it.

However, after facing IG in the main event today, I was really shocked.

As time ticked by, the situation became increasingly tense, and it gradually reached the point where IG excelled at engaging in fights.

Even when trailing by four or five thousand, IG often manages to turn the tide with their incredible fighting ability, especially between fifteen and twenty-three minutes into the game.

One fierce battle after another began and ended in a flash.

"Factory Manager, the jungler is too aggressive! He doesn't have a moment to rest at all. He always manages to appear in the right position." Wawa was watching with great excitement: "As expected of the opening match of the year, it's going to be bloody!"

"Both sides look really competitive, it feels like it's no less intense than the playoffs!" Miller nodded, watching the game screen nervously.

in the game.

In the jungle, after returning to base, Kha'Zix finally showed the same fangs as Kha'Zix in ranked games. At twelve minutes, he went straight for a jungle item and Duskblade, fully demonstrating the advantages of his evolved R skill.

Taking advantage of TheShy's impulsive move in the top lane, Kha'Zix, relying on his level and equipment, instantly killed Aatrox with Akali in less than two seconds.

Take another head.

At twelve minutes, Ning was eager to counterattack. He finally managed to take advantage of the gap when Li Luo ganked top lane and, together with Rookie, executed a classic Lee Sin-Yasuo combo. Ning emerged from the F6 camp, flashed to kick Rumble away, and then Yasuo followed up with his ultimate.

This kind of unstoppable gank is something almost no mid laner can escape, and Rumble, with his short legs and no mobility, is no exception.

IG finally got their first kill, securing a kill for Yasuo.

But soon, bad news came from the bottom lane: Zaozi and Meikou were playing incredibly fiercely, and had even started tower diving.

Edg's jungler was in the top lane, and IG's jungler was in the mid lane. In a fair duel between the two bottom lanes, Meiko's girl group was sacrificed, but Uzi's Miss Fortune got a double kill.

At the 15-minute mark, the economic gap between the two sides had widened to over 3000. Edg's lead was mainly concentrated on Kha'Zix and Miss Fortune, which seemed like a huge difference. However, as always, as soon as Uzi died, the advantage instantly diminished by more than half.

After checking the time, Li Luo chose to return to base to coordinate with the bottom lane in the second dragon team fight.

"They're about to take the second dragon. But it seems Edg hasn't noticed Ning stealing the dragon. Will they be able to catch up?"

In the game, while Li Luo was returning home to replenish supplies, Ning Wang boldly seized the opportunity during a gap in vision, timed his attack, and stole the dragon.

The first dragon was a fire dragon, which Edg won; the second was a wind dragon.

For heroes like IG, whose gameplay is completely different with and without their ultimate abilities, this Wind Dragon is a must-take!

"What do you mean? Ning Wang is incredibly skilled and daring this time. There aren't many seconds left, are they going to continue fighting?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Mantis, wearing his shoes, walked out the door and happened to arrive at the place where the Blue Buff had come out. He saw the Blind Mantis fighting with the Dragon in the Dragon Pit.

At this moment, both of them were stunned.

Then, the next moment, the Edg team logo lit up above the Mantis's head, and it pounced.

"I stole the dragon! Look at me!"

The instant he saw the Kha'Zix fly over, Ning made an incredible move, immediately using his W ability to kick the Kha'Zix away in mid-air, hoping to use the remaining time to secure the dragon.

Ning instantly initiated his W skill, aiming at the spot where Kha'Zix landed. The next moment, Ning's left hand quickly tapped the R key.

Bang!
Visually, everyone will even see the Lee Sin's ultimate skill appear; the animation has already been created.

but.
Seeing visual effects doesn't mean the skill is effective.

A golden light flashed, accompanied by a unique gray-white effect of disappearing into the void, and the blind man's R missed!

Or rather, the blind man failed to land a hit!

By the time the mantis appeared, it had already landed an AQ attack on the dragon, bringing its health to the kill threshold.

flutter!
With the penalty applied, Edg successfully secured the dragon.

Only then did Prince Ning realize what was happening and hurriedly fled.

However, Kha'Zix activated his ultimate ability (R) again, using the speed boost to get close to Lee Sin, and then his claws came down to bite.

With just one attack, combined with the effect of Duskblade, Lee Sin's health dropped by a third.

The terrifying damage made Ning's scalp tingle, and he quickly used his ultimate skill to try and kick the Kha'Zix away.

Visually, Lee Sin's R animation reappears, but Kha'Zix simultaneously enters his third stealth phase.

"???"

"My god, Ning failed to execute his kick again, and Clearlove used his invisibility just before Lee Sin could unleash his Dragon's Tail."

"Wow, Lee Sin's R skill is a targeted cast, requiring a certain amount of time to register. Clearlove is really showing off."

Having failed to unleash his ultimate skill twice, Ning, the player on the field, was on the verge of a mental breakdown, regardless of the commentators' and viewers' opinions.

When did I become unable to even use my Lee Sin's ultimate (R)?
This is outrageous!

Before Ning could react again, Kha'Zix emerged from the darkness, triggering the Duskblade effect once more and unleashing a terrifying Isolation Q!
This time, Prince Ning's blind man can finally be brought out!

With tears in his eyes, Ning frantically pressed the R skill. The Blind Mantis roared, gathering all his strength into one point, and sent the Kha'Zix flying into the distance.

However, the next moment, a burst of blue void energy erupted from the sky.

To the blind man's horror, the mantis flew away, but his Void Thrust unleashed a devastating attack that struck the blind man, who was immobilized by his ultimate ability.

The blind man's last sliver of health was depleted, and he instantly collapsed to the ground.

"???!"

"Holy crap!! A praying mantis! A praying mantis!"

"The Lee Sin got almost half his health taken by an AQ combo, and finally managed to use his R! Ah? Kha'Zix's W skill wiped out the Lee Sin's health!"

"OMG!"

A notification sound that shook the entire canyon rang out, leaving everyone watching the match completely stunned.

The child stared wide-eyed, her face filled with horror, and exclaimed, "My God! What happened! Can anyone tell me what happened? Why did the blind man die without any resistance?!"

"My God!" Miller was completely dumbfounded: "Clearlove! Lee Sin's proficiency is terrifying! He completely knows the prelude to Lee Sin's ultimate skill and can interrupt it every time with his invisibility. Is this what a true Lee Sin pro is like??"
