Chapter 391 Horror Game, This Graves is like a ghost!
After securing Baron Nashor, the LGD team recalled to base to replenish their equipment and status before heading out together.

Zhou Dian helped Wei Shen's LeBlanc secure their own blue buff.

LGD hadn't even started using the Baron buff to push forward yet, but they had already overtaken RNG by more than 3,000 gold.

Watching LGD push down the mid lane as a group of five, Miller said, "RNG needs to keep their mentality stable right now. The worst thing is for them to lose their composure, because they made a big mistake in this wave."

Faced with LGD's five-man push, RNG chose to give up the mid-lane tower.

In this situation, there's really no need to defend the mid-lane tower that's only at half health.

At 26 minutes and 50 seconds into the game, LGD destroyed RNG's mid-lane tower.

RNG lost all three of their towers, further widening the economic gap between the two sides.

LGD was 10 minutes behind RNG in destroying the first tower on each of the three lanes, but now LGD is leading RNG by 4,000 gold.

The Baron buff will last for more than two minutes, and this economic gap should continue to widen.

After taking down RNG's mid-lane tower, LGD had just reached another wave of minions.

So PYL decided to push forward again in the mid lane.

Immediately afterwards, the red team's minion wave advanced into RNG's second mid-lane tower.

As the imp's cannons level up, their range is now quite good.

The prince threw a flag to increase Tristana's attack speed, and Tristana applied Explosive Spark (E) to the turret and started attacking like crazy.

Unfortunately, there were no siege minions in this wave, and even with the Baron buff, they were quickly cleared by RNG.

At this point, the little cannon had only managed to take down RNG's second mid-lane tower with just over half its health remaining.

Seeing this, Zhou Dian said, "Forget it, there's no need to push hard here. Let's do it the same way: I'll go with the Enchantress on the side lanes, and the three of you stay in the mid lane and don't get caught out."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Wei Shen ran into another problem.

After RNG cleared the minion wave, Zhou Dian immediately controlled Graves to go to the bottom lane.

They've already reached the bushes next to RNG's F6.

Just then, Wei Shen's LeBlanc W stepped forward to try and whittle down the Spider's health.

Spider decisively formed a cocoon and attacked, and LeBlanc immediately used her second W to return to her original position.

The result was that LeBlanc, who had returned to her original position, was trapped in front of RNG's mid-lane second tower by a web of spider webs.

Mlxg's prediction of E caught Wei Shen red-handed.

The tree decisively used Flash + W to follow up with crowd control on the LeBlanc, and at the same time unleashed its ultimate.

Thick vines rose from the ground and swept towards the LGD players.

LeBlanc was instantly reduced to a sliver of health, but Janna used her ultimate and healing abilities to save her life.

At this moment, LeBlanc's Flash was not yet ready, so Wei Shen quickly pressed the hourglass, and LeBlanc turned into a little golden man.

After the invincibility ended, Wei Shen quickly used his ultimate to replicate LeBlanc's W skill.

The weakened demon queen's shadowy figure retreated.

However, in order to save LeBlanc, most of the LGD players were hit by either Maokai's ultimate or Varus's ultimate.

These two powerful crowd control skills completely disrupted LGD's formation.

"Retreat! Retreat! I'll cover the rear!" Eimy shouted.

Then the prince turned around and used his ultimate skill, trapping all four RNG players except for the support Lulu inside.

However, Prince's E skill was not ready, nor was his Flash, so this ultimate move essentially put him in a deadly situation as well.

With three core items and Lulu's support, Varus's sustained damage output is extremely impressive.

The prince couldn't withstand two seconds before being focused down and killed by RNG.

Thanks to Eimy's sacrifice, the remaining four members of LGD were finally able to widen the gap between themselves and the rest of RNG.

It was a rare opportunity for LGD to make a mistake on their own, so the RNG team naturally pressed their advantage.

Letme's great tree unleashes righteous glory, accelerating its charge forward.

Imp skillfully maneuvered the cannon to turn around and unleash a powerful attack, sending the tree flying.

This was quite dangerous; imp's timing for his ultimate move was extremely precise, and the distance was perfectly timed.

If it were just a little slower, the big tree could have used its W ability to bind the little cannon.

Once the big tree is tied up, Xiao Pao will definitely be finished, and the rest of LGD will also be in danger.

Xiao Hu got a little anxious when he saw the big tree being pushed away by Xiao Pao's ultimate move.

Ignoring that Lucian's health was not very good, only a little over half, he immediately flashed to attack Janna.

Janna quickly used Flash to create distance.

At that moment, Zhou Dian's Graves suddenly turned around and unexpectedly unleashed a QR combo on Lucian, who was charging at the front.

Graves with armor penetration items deals terrifying skill damage, instantly reducing Lucian's health bar to the bottom.

Fortunately, Ming reacted quickly enough to use Lulu's ultimate on Lucian before Lucian's health bar was depleted.

Lucian's almost depleted health was restored by Lulu's ultimate.

Graves' ultimate bomb (R) explodes backward in a fan shape after hitting Lucian.

Varus, who was behind Lucian, was instantly blasted away and lost half of his health.

Meanwhile, the Spider next to Varus, whose health was less than half, was blasted to the point of having only a sliver of health left by Graves' ultimate.

This ultimate bomb (R) was like a real bomb, instantly extinguishing RNG's hopes of continuing the pursuit.

The RNG players turned around and stopped chasing.

Zhou Dian thought to himself, "What a pity."

Unfortunately, Graves was just a little short of level 16 in experience.

If the Graves was level 16, then it would have been a level 3 ultimate.

In the previous situation, it's hard to say whether Lucian would have died if it had been a level 3 ultimate, depending on Lulu's reaction, but Elise would definitely have died.

In the commentary booth, Wawa summarized: "RNG, in this desperate situation, pulled off a winning team fight!"

"Mlxg's Elise seized the opportunity, and Wei Shen's LeBlanc did absolutely nothing in this team fight."

Miller added, "To be honest, Zhou Shen's Graves damage is really outrageous!"

"With this one big move, RNG won't dare to chase anymore. If they keep chasing, I think LGD will really fight back."

"Yes," Wawa nodded, "but LGD's jungler died for nothing this time, and their push rhythm with the Baron buff is about to be disrupted!"

On the big screen, a replay showed that after the battle, LGD's Baron buff only lasted for a few dozen seconds.

The Earth Dragon's respawn time is less than a minute.

LGD absolutely must contest this Earth Dragon, so the remaining Baron buff duration is practically useless.

Zhou Dian organized the top lane minions, without even pushing them across the river, and quickly controlled Graves to head towards the bottom lane.

All five members of the team had the Baron buff, but they only managed to take down one of RNG's outer turrets.

The utilization rate of this dragon buff is pitifully low.

However, now is not the time to blame Wei Shen for making a mistake.

LGD still has a lead of over 4,000 gold, and the advantage remains with LGD. Taking down this Earth Dragon is the key right now.

Before the Earth Dragon spawned, RNG grouped up and positioned themselves near the Dragon Pit, and the Rift Scuttler was also destroyed by RNG.

The LGD players were scattered nearby, subtly surrounding RNG and pressing them relentlessly.

RNG players dared not make any rash moves and were forced back to their own lower jungle.

The small cannon took the opportunity to push the mid lane minions, and a large wave of red minions headed straight for RNG's second mid tower.

imp's Tristana came out of base this time and bought a Mercury's Treads.

Actually, Tristana brought Cleanse this game, but she used it in the team fight just now, so Cleanse is on cooldown now. imp spent 1300 gold on Mercury's Treads just for this potential dragon fight, which shows that LGD is determined to get this Earth Dragon.

After a large wave of minions pushed into RNG's second mid-lane tower, Uzi hesitated whether to clear the mid-lane minions first.

The remaining RNG players were also hesitant to get too close to the dragon pit, given that Jarvan IV's team fight initiation was unpredictable.

While they were hesitating, LGD started attacking the Earth Dragon, with GodV's LeBlanc responsible for harassing from the flanks.

By the time RNG members circled around to the front, LGD had already rushed down the Earth Dragon and left without looking back.

With two Earth Dragons in hand, LGD's speed in taking down Baron Nashor will increase significantly.

Now RNG needs to keep a close eye on Graves and Tristana.

Once Baron Nashor spawns, if these two players simultaneously disappear from RNG's vision, RNG will have to worry about whether LGD's two marksmen are rushing Baron Nashor.

As for the smaller dragons, after the Earth Dragon, the next one will be the Fire Dragon.

Five elemental dragons spawned 35 minutes into the game, which is quite rare in recent versions.

At this point, there are no neutral resources on the map. Normally, both sides should return to their farming rhythm before the dragons spawn.

At 29 minutes and 50 seconds into the game, Zhou Dian's Graves arrived at the upper river and took down the upper river crab with two shots.

Then they walked into the small bushes behind RNG's blue buff camp.

A ward was placed, and there were no wards from RNG in this bush.

In the commentary box.

"Wait a minute!" Doll suddenly interrupted Miller's long speech.

"Is Zhou Shen trying to ambush someone again? Spider is nearby, will Xiangguo go there?"

"Hey~ I walked past it!!"

At this moment, on the large screen at the scene.

The spider is scanning its head and is walking in its own blue zone, heading towards the upper river.

Then, a smoke grenade flew out of the bushes in front of the spider, followed by a burly man carrying a shotgun.

Start with EQ combo, then follow up with a basic attack and your ultimate.

Graves' incredibly smooth WEQAR combo instantly killed Spider!
The turning point of this game, Graves' instant kill on Lucian, was exactly the same in every way.

The difference is that this time it happened in RNG's jungle.

As the spider walked toward the bush where the Graves was, a soft shout rang out from the audience.

The shouts grew louder as the spider got closer to Graves.

The peak was reached when Graves used a single combo to instantly kill Elise.

Doll exclaimed, "Another instant kill! This Graves is like a ghost now. Anyone who's alone just gets killed. How are we supposed to play like this?!"

In the live feed of the contestants in the lower left corner of the large screen, Mlxg suddenly raised his head, adjusted his headphones with both hands, and muttered something under his breath.

Judging from the shape of his mouth, it's probably something like, "WCNM!"

In the RNG team voice.

"No, how come you guys died again?" Uzi's tone was irritable and impatient.

What do you think I can do?

Mlxg isn't like Letme; he won't hold back when he really wants to speak.

He continued, "If I don't do vision control, who will? Now this Graves treats my jungle like his own home. I get instantly killed whenever I see him, and Tristana's items have caught up too."

"This game is over!"

Mlxg was once a well-known troll and hot-tempered player in the Chinese server.

They might go along with you during a match because they want to win, but that doesn't mean they have to go along with you in every other aspect.

Mlxg had a really frustrating game; he didn't know how he ended up playing like that.

After being instantly killed by Zhou Dian's Graves in his own jungle, he got a little emotional when he heard Uzi's questioning words.

Mlxg knew very well that Uzi hadn't really made any mistakes in this game, and had suppressed LGD's bot lane very well in lane, but he still couldn't help but want to retaliate.

When Uzi heard Mlxg say, "This game is over," his face turned even redder.

Fortunately, Xiaohu stepped in to smooth things over and changed the subject, allowing the two to focus on the game itself.

The game isn't over yet, it's not like there's no hope of winning. Even if we lose, there will still be opportunities later!
Often, the reason things are deadlocked is simply because a way out is needed.

Now that Xiaohu has given them this way out, the two of them immediately turned their attention back to the game.

At this moment, Letme was controlling Maokai to farm minions under the bottom lane's second turret.

Seeing that Mlxg and Uzi seemed to have a disagreement, he was trembling and dared not say a word.

After all, the whole thing started because of Graves.

Although Graves didn't manage to solo kill him this game, Graves is so fed right now that he, as the opponent of Graves, really doesn't dare to say much.

Back to the game.

The large screen at the scene was replaying the entire process of Graves instantly killing Elise.

Miller muttered to himself, "A horror game!"

Having experienced the Spider being instantly killed earlier, RNG now groups up in groups to build vision around Baron.

I'm afraid that a Graves or LeBlanc might suddenly jump out from some bush.

However, this meant that RNG was constantly on the defensive in both the top and bottom lanes.

About ten seconds before the Baron Nashor spawned, the economic gap between the two sides had exceeded six thousand gold.

At 32 minutes into the game, Baron Nashor spawned.

Both sides probed each other near the Dragon Pit.

After a brief exchange of fire, both sides dispersed, with no casualties reported.

The Graves' teleport was triggered by his teammates, but he gained nothing from it.

In those few minutes, LGD no longer had the advantage of having an extra teleport.

It's been over thirty minutes. Although LGD has a significant advantage, the situation on the field isn't completely clear yet, so it's not fair to say they've already secured a win.

Cheers erupted again from the crowd.

Fans from both sides shouted slogans for their respective teams, creating a chaotic yet passionate atmosphere.

The two sides continued to pull back and forth near the Big Dragon Pit, neither daring to make a move.

Two minutes passed quickly.

The next dragon is about to spawn, and both sides are still testing each other.

At times like these, the players' patience and rationality are truly tested.

Any slight lapse in concentration, if seized upon by the opponent, could ultimately lead to the loss of the game.

Overall, LGD is not in a hurry.

First of all, LGD's lineup has an advantage in the later stages of the game.

Furthermore, on LGD's side, LeBlanc with Teleport is pushing the bottom lane.

On the RNG side, all five players are currently engaged in a frontal assault, leaving the bottom lane undefended.

Although Letme's tree has teleportation, he cannot leave the front.

If he, RNG's only frontliner, is not there, the rest of RNG will be instantly overwhelmed once a team fight starts.

Seeing that LeBlanc was relentlessly attacking RNG's second bottom tower, and knowing that they would be dragged down to their death if the situation continued, RNG decided to take a risky path.

Let's take down Baron!
