Chapter 495 LGD's team fight was a beautiful sight, and the Baron buff had a maximum effect!

Gnar's Flash was still six seconds away from being ready again, and he used his E skill to travel.

Zhou Dian was just worried about how to get into the game, but the prince's EQ combo helped him a lot.

Taking advantage of the fact that SKT's jungler, support, and bottom laner were knocked up, Gnar stepped forward and walked directly in front of them.

With the ultimate ability activated, Gnar the small Gnar becomes Gnar the large one.

Gnar, along with Gragas, Varus, and Lulu, who were all low on health in front of him, were slammed into the wall by Gnar's ultimate.

Before Gnar entered the fray, Yasuo used his E ability on Gnar to get behind him.

So Yasuo was also knocked to the front from behind by Gnar's ultimate, allowing him to rejoin his three teammates.

"Prince's Q skill knocks up three! Gnar's ultimate, Buddha's Palm, hits three, four!!!"

Upon witnessing LGD's series of control combos, Miller's voice cracked with excitement.

He knew that this team fight, initiated by SKT, would inevitably end in a resounding victory for LGD.

On the big screen, Lulu, who had the lowest health, was instantly killed by Gnar's ultimate.

The remaining barrels, Varus and Yasuo, were also knocked unconscious and unable to move.

Then, Gnar followed up with his W skill, stunning SKT's top, bottom, and jungle trio once again.

Imp's Xayah followed up and unleashed a barrage of attacks.

The low-health Gragas and Varus were instantly killed, and Gnar and Xayah each secured a kill.

SKT is now only left with Ryze and Yasuo.

Ryze had no Flash or ultimate, and Yasuo was trapped among LGD's players; neither of them had a way to escape.

Faker and Huni were well aware of this and just wanted to make more trades, hoping there might still be a chance to save Baron.

This is clearly futile!

The two fought with all their might to kill the low-health prince, but they couldn't take down any of the remaining LGD players.

Yasuo, who hadn't built any defensive items, was killed by Xayah in a few auto-attacks, and Xayah secured a double kill.

At this moment, Malzahar, who had teleported to the base of LGD's mid-lane tower, arrived late, finally reaching the scene of the team fight that was almost over.

Wei Shen was too lazy to use any other skills, so Malzahar immediately used Nether Grasp (R), which pinned Ryze to the spot.

Ryze, who was suppressed, was killed by LGD without any power to resist.

ACE!

"Faker is also being sucked in here, SKT is going to be wiped out!" PDD shouted.

With Gnar securing a kill on Ryze and achieving a triple kill, SKT was wiped out by LGD.

SKT initiated the team fight, but LGD managed to get a 1-for-5 exchange.

"Faker's dead! Perfect team fight!" Miller shouted hoarsely. "Wow, Gnar, what happened? Zhou Shen!"

Miller was speechless for a moment, unable to think of the right words to explain.

"Honestly, in this team fight, apart from Zhou Shen, I think Eimy was incredibly skillful, especially the Prince's EQ combo that knocked up three enemies!"

PDD quickly took over the conversation, preventing any awkward silence from forming in the commentary booth amidst the near-boiling cheers of the audience.

"Eimy, that prince, is too good, really too good. As for Zhou Shen, I think it's just his usual move to have Gnar hit four times. He will never let the opportunity pass him by."

Scratching the back of his head, PDD continued, "LGD's team fight this time, with that series of coordinated attacks, especially the top and jungle duo, I feel like they completely stunned SKT!"

In the game, after LGD achieved a 1-for-5 exchange, Malzahar, Xayah, and Janna headed straight for Baron Nashor.

Zhou Dian's Gnar was pushing the lane in the mid lane, trying to take down SKT's mid tower.

In the official live stream, the chat was refreshing so fast it was almost impossible to see.

Holy crap, LGD is awesome!

LGD is awesome!

LGD's combination of moves seems to have really stunned SKT!

[The prince's move was so cool! His ultimate, "Heavenly King Covers the Earth," followed by a backhand "Looking Back at the Moon" EQ combo that pierced through the opponent's defenses!]

[Isn't it cool that my brother REs three times?]

They're all so handsome!

[Zhou Shen is the coolest! He hit four Nar with a single blow, like a Tathagata Palm!]

Young man, have you ever seen a palm strike that falls from the sky?

[Fire Cloud Evil God is the best in the world!]

[Get out of here! The loudspeaker is the best in the world!]

【.】

The comments quickly went astray.

This is in LGD's team voice chat at this moment.

Although Prince was the only one to die on LGD's side in this wave, everyone on LGD praised Eimy to the skies, making Eimy a little embarrassed.

Finally, Zhou Dian took the opportunity to tease Wei Shen.

"Wow, we're so awesome! We wiped out SKT even in a four-on-five situation!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Shen chuckled and said, "Don't talk nonsense! I clearly used my ultimate to pull Faker in that team fight. I did a great job, okay?"

The entire LGD team voice chat was immediately filled with laughter and joy.

However, SKT's team voice chat was completely silent at this moment, with no one speaking for a long time.

With the game lasting just over 22 minutes, LGD, employing a dual-thread strategy, secured both Baron Nashor and SKT's mid-lane tower.

It's somewhat miraculous that they took down Baron Nashor before even destroying any of the opponent's defensive towers.

All of this is thanks to the perfect team fight that LGD just fought.

"What kind of team fight is this?! What kind of team fight is this?! I... I'm really stunned." Miller was clearly at a loss for words.

"And in that situation just now, LGD's jungler, support, and bottom laner were surrounded by SKT, it looked like LGD was about to be wiped out!" Miller continued.

"However, with one prince's ultimate, one flying feathers, one hook, plus Gnar's R, there were four of them. The key is that his R killed one person, and his W hit three more. Zhou Shen's two waves of control were equivalent to controlling seven people."

Miller caught his breath, and the language module finally returned to normal. He then blurted out everything he hadn't had a chance to say during the team fight.

"And finally, Faker, the only surviving member of SKT, was also hit by Malzahar's ultimate and couldn't move!" Remember added.

If Wei Shen could hear the live commentary, he would be very grateful to remember.

Finally, someone mentioned his contribution in the team fight!

Back to the game.

After securing the Baron buff, the entire LGD team recalled to base to replenish their supplies.

At this point, LGD's economy had already surpassed SKT's by 2,000 gold, and the Baron buff's duration had only just begun.

It is foreseeable that the economic gap between the two sides will continue to widen.

LGD went from being on the back foot with a 3,000 gold deficit to having a 2,000 gold lead and a completely favorable situation, all within the span of just one team fight.

Losing this team fight wasn't the most fatal blow for SKT, since being 2,000 gold behind wasn't a huge amount.

Losing Baron Nashor would be the most fatal mistake!
SKT's lineup, featuring Ryze and Yasuo, is designed for split pushing.

After taking the lead, they rely heavily on the Baron Nashor's control and the Baron buff's finishing power.

The acquisition of the two Earth Dragons significantly increased the speed of taking down Baron Nashor and pushing towers, and directly expanded the original advantageous positions of SKT's lineup.

However, just over 22 minutes in, SKT lost Baron Nashor. LGD secured Baron, completely erasing SKT's advantage in split-pushing.

Instead, this will force SKT to confront the fact that their team composition is inferior to LGD's in team fights.

It can be said that after this wave, the balance of victory has tilted significantly in LGD's favor.

So far in the game, LGD has only taken down one of SKT's mid-lane towers; all of SKT's other towers are still standing.

It's unrealistic to think that you can defeat SKT with just one Baron Nashor.

However, the current game situation is very favorable for LGD.

After returning to base to replenish their supplies, the LGD players emerged from the fountain.

Just like the lane assignments at the start of the game, Gnar went to the top lane, Malzahar went to the mid lane, Xayah and Janna went to the bottom lane, and Jarvan IV went straight to the upper jungle to farm.

The goal of this Baron buff is to take down as many of SKT's outer turrets as possible and widen the economic gap between the two sides as much as possible.

Preparing to fight for the next dragon.

If they can secure the second Baron Nashor in this game, then this game will definitely end SKT.

Having emerged from the fountain, Xayah and Gnar, who secured double and triple kills respectively in the team fight, now possess two complete core items, putting them ahead of everyone on SKT except for Ryze.

In addition to the cannon and mana drainer, Xayah also has a B.F. Sword.

Its equipment is so luxurious that it's on par with Ryze.

With Janna's support, as long as imp doesn't suddenly die in team fights, Xayah's role in team fights will inevitably be greater than Ryze's.

However, Ryze's ultimate ability has the power to turn the tide of battle, so LGD cannot afford to relax at all.

In the commentary box.

After several commentators reviewed LGD's five-for-one team fight, PDD said, "In this game, Zhou Shen and Eimy, the top and jungle duo, showed us how to defend in the early game. In the mid-game, their understanding of team fights was truly excellent!"

"This also tells everyone what our LPL teams excel at most," PDD continued, "It's team fights! When it comes to split pushing and control, we may not be as good as the Korean teams, but when it comes to team fights, who in the LPL is afraid of?"

“Well said!” Miller nodded emphatically.

Cheers erupted again from the audience.

Back to the game.

Zhou Dian pushed the top lane minion wave to SKT's top tower.

Huni's Yasuo was alone in the top lane, and instead of defending, he retreated to the back to farm Krugs.

Gnar then pushed down SKT's top lane tower.

At this point, the Baron buff still has 2 minutes and 20 seconds remaining.

Twenty seconds later, imp and PYL destroyed SKT's bottom lane tower.

At this point, all three of SKT's towers have been destroyed, allowing LGD to significantly reduce SKT's vision control in the jungle.

The Baron buff still has two minutes remaining.

After taking down SKT's top and bottom lane towers, Zhou Dian, along with imp and PYL, did not stop.

The three split into two groups and then pushed the minion waves to the second towers of SKT's top and bottom lanes.

Eimy's Prince stayed near his own bot lane duo, protecting them.

In the mid lane, GodV's Malzahar is almost pushing the minion wave to SKT's second mid tower.

However, SKT, who easily gave up their first tower, will not easily give up their second tower.

LGD didn't have any intention of tower diving; they just used the Baron buff to buff the minions, pulling back and forth across several lanes to slowly whittle down the health of SKT's second towers.

While all of SKT's players were defending their lanes under the tower, Zhou Dian's Gnar took the opportunity to kill SKT's red buff.

In this back-and-forth struggle, opportunities gradually emerge.

At 24 minutes and 15 seconds into the game, SKT's mid and jungle players returned to the mid lane to defend.

The bottom lane's second turret was only defended by Varus and Lulu.

Facing LGD's jungler, support, and bot lane trio, along with the siege minion wave buffed by Baron, SKT's bot lane duo clearly couldn't hold onto the tower, and Bang and Wolf chose to retreat.

Xayah and Janna easily pushed down SKT's second bottom tower.

At this point, the Baron buff still has 1 minutes and 16 seconds remaining.

While LGD's jungler, support, and bottom lane were in the bottom lane, Faker's Ryze attempted to gank Malzahar with his ultimate, but failed.

After dodging Ryze's ultimate, Wei Shen chose to recall.

After Malzahar returned to base, he bought Rylai's Crystal Scepter, which is considered Malzahar's absolute core item.

Once Malzahar got his ice staff, his truly disgusting side became apparent.

After LGD's jungler and support pushed the minion wave to SKT's bottom lane inhibitor tower, they attracted SKT's players back to defend, and then immediately turned to the mid lane.

Malzahar, who had just returned after acquiring Rylai's Crystal Scepter, joined forces with the four of them to push, catching SKT off guard and quickly destroying SKT's second mid-lane tower.

The Baron buff still has 40 seconds remaining.

"Great! LGD also destroyed SKT's second tier 2 tower. Third, Yasuo flashed to dodge Gnar's ultimate!" Miller suddenly changed his tune.

Just now, after SKT's second mid-lane tower fell, the OB switched the camera to the top lane and saw that under SKT's second top-lane tower, Gnar slapped Yasuo with both hands.

Huni reacted well, flashing to dodge Gnar's ultimate.

However, Huni clearly overreacted this time. LGD's main force had just left the mid lane and entered SKT's red buff area, and was still some distance from the top lane.

Even if Yasuo is pinned against a wall by Gnar's ultimate at this point, he will only take damage from Gnar.

A Gnar who only built one damage item, Black Cleaver, and then switched to tanky items clearly couldn't kill Yasuo with a single combo.

After Yasuo dodged the ultimate with Flash, Zhou Dian controlled Gnar to retreat out of the range of SKT's second top tower and wait for his teammates to arrive.

By the time their bot lane duo arrived, Gnar had just exhausted his rage meter and transformed into Gnar.

Xayah and Gnar quickly took down SKT's second top turret.

At this point, the game was just over 25 minutes in, and all six outer turrets on all three lanes of SKT had been destroyed.

LGD's Baron buff duration was down to only about 20 seconds, leaving them with little room to maneuver.

However, this Baron buff was used to take five of SKT's defensive towers and destroy all of SKT's outer towers, so it can be said that it was used to its full potential and played its full value.

While the Baron buff was still active, the entire LGD team quickly returned to base.

"This Baron buff destroyed all of SKT's outer turrets!" Miller said.

"LGD's economic lead has reached nearly 7,000 gold. I think their advantage in this game is huge. Let's play it safe and win this game!"

After feeling confident of victory, the commentators began to analyze SKT's situation from the perspective of the winner, showing "generosity".

"I think SKT still has an old problem!" PDD scratched the back of his head.

"Exactly. You see, whether we look at the current form of the SKT players or this game, who actually created the initial advantages and opportunities?"

"It was Faker who created it!"

“Yes!” Miller nodded.

PDD continued, "Do you really think SKT has anyone else who can step up? Even if Huni gets an advantage in the top lane, it's because Faker and Peanut helped him establish it in the early game."

“I think that’s it,” Miller said. “Back in Season 3, there was that Piglet, you know, the little pig, right!”

"Marin was there in Season 5, and Bengi was there in Season 6!"

"But now, besides Faker, who else on this SKT team has the ability to carry in crucial games and be the key player in critical moments? Who can share the pressure with him?"
