Chapter 329 Armor-Piercing Prince, Deceptive Excavator! LGD Secures Their First Victory in the Intercontinental Cup!
As we all know, the Prince of the winning side is extremely annoying for a carry without any mobility.

Without exchanging a single word upon meeting, they used a quick EQ combo to bridge the gap.

Then a powerful ultimate skill will be used to force the user to use Flash.

If you use Flash this time, and get trapped by the Prince's ultimate next time, you're doomed.

With Flash Wolves' mid-lane tower gone, their jungle vision was constantly compressed by LGD.

Without vision, it's easy to get endlessly blocked by the Prince's ultimate.

After completing the Dreamweaver, Zhou Dian's prince chose to continue crafting armor-piercing gear.

However, this build has a problem.

That is, the prince's equipment was better than the crocodile's, but he still couldn't beat the crocodile.

But why did Zhou Dian choose to fight the crocodile in a 1v1?
As the saying goes, you have to pick the softest persimmon.

Game time is 15 minutes and 30 seconds.

Flash Wolves' bot lane duo, Varus and Zyra, pushed the minion wave slightly forward in the mid lane.

"Demacia!"

Suddenly, a loud roar rang in the ears of the Flash Wolves' bot lane duo.

The prince emerged from the darkness with a double EQ combo.

Then the ultimate ability trapped Varus and Zyra, whose Flash abilities hadn't finished.

With just one Cataclysm (R) followed by Tiamat, Varus and Zyra, two squishy champions, were left with only half health.

Then the prince's spear struck Varus.

With one basic attack that triggered his passive, Varus was left with only a third of his health.

Verus turned and released the chains of corruption (R) at the prince.

At the same time, a large number of vines began to spread at the prince's feet.

It was Zyra's ultimate ability – Strangling Vine.

A Jarvan IV built with pure damage isn't very tanky, and Varus and Zyra's damage is enough to kill him.

Unfortunately, these two heroes didn't deal damage fast enough.

Just as Zhou Dian's prince unleashed his ultimate move.

Wei Shen's plane also flew over Varus and Zyra's heads.

Valkyrie, with her explosive charge effect, swooped down (W), leaving a trail of fire beneath the feet of the Flash Wolves' bot lane duo.

From the audience's perspective.

Then we saw the Prince dash out of the jungle with a double EQ combo, use his ultimate to cover Varus and Zyra, and then Corki used his W to carry the bomb.

then.

Varus and Zyra simply vanished.

The chains of corruption and the strangling vines still fell on the prince, causing him to lose half his health.

Guan Zeyuan, on the commentary platform, had just raised his voice when the battle ended.

After a two-second silence, Guan Zeyuan managed to utter a sentence:
"The output of the prince is terrifying!"

Varus and Zyra are the two kills.

The prince and the plane each received one.

At this point, there were still more than forty seconds left before the dragon spawned.

With their bot lane duo gone, Flash Wolves' vision control in the dragon pit was completely destroyed by LGD.

Without vision, Flash Wolves were less willing to engage in dragon fights.

So they chose to abandon the fire dragon.

Actually, Flash Wolves could have fought this team fight.

The prince doesn't have his ultimate, and the plane doesn't have his explosives. Once the bot lane duo respawns, they'll be able to make plays.

But Flash Wolves are completely backing down now.

With their vision in a passive position, Flash Wolves dared not take risks, fearing they would suffer even greater losses.

So they handed the fire dragon over to LGD.

At this point, the scales of victory had begun to tip in LGD's favor.

Without map resources, the game fell into a development phase.

Flash Wolves wanted to break the deadlock by split pushing, because a pure damage Jarvan IV couldn't beat a semi-tanky Renekton in a one-on-one fight.

The crocodile began to choose to engage in one-on-one harassment.

However, if they continue to develop like this, LGD's lineup will still have the advantage in the later stages.

However, the prince built pure damage items this game.

LGD's lack of a frontline in the late game is a potential weakness.

Zhou Dian was well aware of this.

LGD's commander PYL was aware of this and wanted to speed up the pace of the game.

Both Prince and Rakan are heroes with very strong initiation abilities.

A few minutes passed.

The plane's passive explosive charge is ready again.

It's time for LGD to attack.

Zhou Dian made Wei Shen wait for a minute, as he was short of money to buy equipment.

After clearing a wave of minions and a group of jungle monsters, the Prince recalled to base and bought a completed item.

At this point, the game time was less than 22 minutes.

The prince's equipment consists of CD boots, Tiamat, Youmuu's Ghostblade, and Night's Edge.

With this ultimate move, the three squishy champions of Flash Wolves – mid, bot, and support – will probably be overwhelmed.

We're not going to do any fancy operations anymore; there's no need for that.

Let's go for something simple and direct: force a team fight at Baron Nashor.

At this moment, the crocodile was pushing the bottom lane, and LGD was too lazy to fake a Baron fight to force the crocodile to teleport.

Zhou Dian's Prince immediately closed the distance with an EQ combo upon meeting Zhou Dian, followed by a Cataclysmic Strike (R) that trapped the Flash Wolves' two carries within his ultimate.

Just as Flash Wolves were about to counterattack Jarvan IV, they saw LGD closing in and had no choice but to use Flash to unleash Jarvan IV's ultimate.

Mimi Egg managed to hold back this time, and the crocodile didn't even use TP.

After forcing Flash Wolves' two carries to use Flash, LGD's five players turned around and started attacking Baron.

At this point, some disagreements arose within the Flash Wolves team.

Flash Wolves' jungler Karsa thought it best to let his Rek'Sai steal Baron Nashor.

If you manage to snag one, you'll make a fortune; if you don't, oh well.

However, the Flash Wolves' commander, who is also their support, felt that LGD lacked a front line and would suffer heavy losses if they tried to fight Baron Nashor head-on. With a little pressure, LGD wouldn't dare to fight to the end.

As a result, the Flash Wolves watched helplessly as the dragon's health dropped to below half.

At this point, the wards in the Dragon Pit for the Flash Wolves were also destroyed, leaving the Dragon Pit completely dark for them.

The Flash Wolves saw the final scene in the dragon pit.

The prince, who was fighting the dragon, only had half his health left.

Flash Wolves' support SwordArt felt they needed to make a move, so the Renekton teleported directly.

The excavator was already missing its sights, so Zyra had to go close and fix them.

Just as Zyra took a step forward, a figure darted past her.

It was LGD's support player, Luo.

PYL's Rakan decisively used R-flash to initiate the team fight.

Rakan's ultimate skill first charmed Zyra, who was positioned forward due to warding.

Then he charmed Varus and Orianna, who had been forced to use Flash by the Prince.

Then Luo made a grand entrance (W) and lifted up the Flash Wolves' two carries.

A plane carrying explosives swooped down.

While spewing flames, it also separated the crocodiles that had just been teleported over.

By the time Rakan's control ended, Varus and Orianna, who were already low on health, had already been double-killed by the plane.

As for Zyra, who was the first to be charmed at the edge of the Dragon Pit.

After being knocked up by the Prince's EQ combo, imp's Xayah used QA on her, but before she could land a hook, the Prince passively secured the kill on Zyra with a single auto-attack.

The Flash Wolves' mid, bot, and support players were almost instantly wiped out.

Squishy heroes without mobility skills are indeed struggling against a composition like LGD's aggressive engage lineup.

On the Flash Wolves' side, the remaining excavators and crocodiles could only flee in panic.

LGD turned back to continue fighting for Baron.

Karsa, unwilling to give up, steered the excavator back.

He wanted to try his luck with Smite to see if he could steal Baron Nashor.

Losing the dragon is tantamount to certain death.

Why not give it a shot!
However, the Lightning Wolf has no vision of the Dragon Pit.

Karsa could only estimate the dragon's health in his mind.

They figured it was about time, so the excavator dug a tunnel down into the large pit.

The moment I descended into the dragon pit, I saw the spider use a Q followed by Smite to kill the dragon.

Karsa was immediately jolted and quickly pressed Flash.

A streak of yellow light flashed by.

The excavator that had just emerged from the dragon pit returned to the top of it.

Immediately, in the official match live stream room:
[Holy crap, what just floated by? I didn't see it!]

Wow, that was fast! My eyes didn't even have time to react!

[A strange day, a cunning excavator!]

[What the heck? A trick excavator? You guys are really good at coming up with names, hahaha, I'm going to die laughing in the live stream sooner or later!]

【.】

Back to the game.

LGD successfully secured the first Baron Nashor in this game.

Then they all returned to the city to regroup and replenish their supplies.

Using the Baron buff, LGD destroyed all of Flash Wolves' outer turrets.

Then, they seized vision control of the Flash Wolves' jungle, thus limiting their development space.

During the few minutes that Orianna and Varus didn't have Flash.

Zhou Dian's prince, accompanied by Spider, was roaming around the Flash Wolves' jungle.

Faced with this situation, Orianna and Varus dared not venture too far from their high ground to farm minions.

The prince appeared out of nowhere like a ghost, unleashed a powerful attack, and then he was gone.

Flash Wolves' support Zyra got caught in a trap while warding in the jungle.

He didn't even have time to use Flash before the prince killed him instantly.

And after the duration of the Baron buff ends.

The development of the two teams' core players has become completely different.

The two heroes, Prince and Rakan, can now initiate team fights without much thought.

To put it simply, just go for it!
The game time is 30 minutes.

The plane, carrying explosives, once again joined forces with the spider to help the prince capture and kill the crocodile carrying the wire.

After killing the crocodile, LGD immediately turned their attention to Baron Nashor.

Flash Wolves have completely given up on the idea of ​​competing this time.

After LGD secured their second Baron Nashor in this game.

Zhou Dian's prince went home and immediately bought a resurrection armor.

This is a plan to wipe out Flash Wolves in one fell swoop.

After resupplying, the prince and the plane left their base, with the prince taking the top lane minions and the plane taking the bottom lane minions respectively.

With the Baron buff on both the top and bottom lanes, the two players moved into the mid lane after reaching the Flash Wolves' high ground tower.

LGD's five players pushed down Flash Wolves' mid-lane inhibitor tower.

Meanwhile, Flash Wolves sent Renekton to defend the top lane minion wave, while the remaining four players held the mid lane.

Since the Baron has already been taken down, leaving the bottom lane inhibitor untouched won't have much of an impact.

As soon as the crocodile left the mid lane, Zhou Dian immediately chose to tower dive and initiate.

The Prince, clad in a resurrection armor, used his EQ combo followed by his ultimate, once again targeting the Flash Wolves' two carries.

Luo Qingwu followed up with her (E), first using E on the Spider, then E on the Prince.

The two E skills perfectly followed the Prince's team fight initiation.

Varus and Orianna flashed to dodge Jarvan IV's ultimate, but Rakan was already close by.

Luo activated his ultimate ability, "Fleeting Glance (R)," and weaved through the crowd on the Flash Wolves' side, once again captivating the Flash Wolves' two carries.

After Zhou Dian's Prince missed his ultimate, he was knocked up by Zyra's ultimate, Strangling Vine, and took a full combo from Zyra.

Before the person even landed, they were blasted away by the excavator, effectively reviving them.

But by the time the prince fell, Varus and Orianna had already been killed by the LGD players who swarmed in.

Four seconds later, the prince who had fallen to the ground revived and got up.

LGD's five players destroyed Flash Wolves' mid-lane high ground and attacked Flash Wolves' twin inhibitor turrets.

Zyra has already used her ultimate, plus a Renekton and a Rek'Sai.

The three surviving members of Flash Wolves couldn't clear the minions that were buffed by the Baron buff.

The game lasted less than 33 minutes.

LGD then pushed down Flash Wolves' base crystal in one fell swoop.

On the large screen at the scene.

As the red team's base crystal exploded, Guan Zeyuan shouted loudly: "So, let's congratulate LGD! In their first match at this Intercontinental Cup, they defeated their opponent, Flash Wolves, adding a victory to LPL's record in the group stage of this Intercontinental Cup!"

"Yes, congratulations to LGD!" Umbrella King added.
