Chapter 505 Faker's basic mistake, GodV's consecutive mistakes!

Of course, besides these cloth armor boots, the big bug still had some money left to buy equipment, but not much.

At 12 minutes and 20 seconds into the game, the giant bug is farming its own swamp frog to replenish its resources.

Neither side's jungler has time to farm the top jungle right now.

When the Swamp Frog had half its health remaining, the light from the Probe Fruit swept over the giant worm.

This must be a Seer's Fruit that the Troll destroyed in LGD's blue buff area.

Then, a troll emerged from the corner behind the giant worm.

When the light from the fruit spread, Zhou Dian should have left already.

However, the giant worm is currently developing very poorly, and Zhou Dian is really reluctant to give up the swamp frog that he has already defeated so much of.

So Zhou Dian sped up his pace of killing jungle monsters.

The giant bug used its W skill on the Gromp, followed by a basic attack, and the Gromp's health dropped below 1,000.

That's about it. The giant bug used its ultimate attack to devour the swamp frog.

Feast (R) adds an effect that makes the giant bug slightly larger and increases its maximum health by nearly 100 points.

But by then, the troll had already reached the giant worm.

The troll immediately used his ultimate ability, "Dominion," on the giant worm.

Then, with its sharp teeth, it tore and bit the big worm.

Zhou Dian didn't hesitate and used Cho'Gath's Q skill to knock the Troll into the air.

Then he walked to the wall, flashed over it, and ran back to his own second top tower in two steps.

A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle; he'd better make his escape!

It seems like the big bug used Flash in order to eat a Gromp, which looks like a big loss.

Actually it is not.

At this stage, LGD is definitely no match for SKT in team fights, and even Zhou Dian's Cho'Gath can't outpace Trundle in split-pushing.

Even if you don't use Flash, the big bug's Flash won't be of much use for the next five minutes.

Five minutes later, Flash is ready again!

Trading a Flash that you won't need for the next few minutes for a Gromp to farm some extra resources, while also gaining an extra stack on your ultimate, isn't actually a bad deal.

"Huni used his ultimate right away, and Zhou Shen didn't hesitate either, he just flashed away and ran away!" PDD said.

"Hey hey hey, Wei Shen didn't use Flash, this looks like we're in trouble."

At this moment, the scene on the big screen suddenly changed, and the observer's view switched from LGD's blue zone to the river.

A few seconds ago, after pushing the mid lane minions, Wei Shen's Malzahar went straight into the bottom river and headed towards the bottom lane.

Faker's Karma, after clearing the minions under the tower, quickly followed Malzahar into the bottom river.

Karma's E ability provided a speed boost, allowing her to quickly close the distance with Malzahar.

At this moment, Eimy's Sejuani was crouching in the bushes on the bottom lane.

LGD's bot lane duo was pressing in front of SKT's bottom tower when Sejuani was naturally there to counter-gank SKT from across the river.

Blank's Gragas was camping in the red team's bottom lane tri-bush.

SKT's bottom tower was low on health, and Gragas was naturally counter-ganking LGD's bot lane duo.

Malzahar walked straight down the river, with Kalma trailing behind him.

When Malzahar was still some distance from the bottom lane river bush, he was spotted by a ward placed in the river by SKT.

Wei Shen originally intended to come down and team up with his jungler and support to forcefully push down SKT's bottom tower and create momentum.

Unexpectedly, they were intercepted by SKT halfway there.

Just as Zhou Dian predicted, SKT is playing very aggressively now, eager to win this game and even the score.

Malzaha, walking in the middle of the river, had just passed the small dragon pit when a wine barrel suddenly jumped out from the upper right wall.

The barrel's flesh-ball impact (E) hit Malzahar but did not stun him.

Malzahar's passive shield blocked Gragas's E skill.

But it doesn't matter if Malzahar isn't knocked unconscious.

Malzahar didn't use Flash, and Gragas was already right in front of We1less.

The rolling barrel (Q) is thrown out, slowing Malzahar down.

Then the barrel threw out the Exploding Barrel (R), blasting Malzahar back, the blast heading directly towards Karma.

Malzahar landed in front of Karma, and We1less quickly maneuvered Malzahar to run down.

However, Karma's W skill had already been linked to Malzahar.

Malzaha will be imprisoned in 1.25 seconds.

The moment Wei Shen was ambushed by the Gragas, LGD's bottom laner, jungler, and support left the bottom lane and headed towards the bottom river to rescue Wei Shen.

However, even though Karma builds Chalice of Harmony which doesn't deal much damage and Gragas builds Cinderhulk jungle item, neither of them can be said to have very high burst damage.

However, given Malzahar's small stature, if SKT's mid and jungle duo each unleash a full combo, their base damage should be enough to kill him.

It was clear that the rest of LGD couldn't save Wei Shen in time.

However, at this very moment, the opportunity that Zhou Dian had mentioned earlier, which required patience, appeared!
After Karma's W skill chained onto Malzahar, Faker used RQ before the root could trigger.

However, with Karma and Malzahar almost face-to-face, Faker's RQ missed, grazing past Malzahar's right side.

If we had waited a little longer, until Karma's W skill triggered and Malzahar was rooted, this RQ would definitely not have missed.

But in reality, Karma's RQ went completely unused.

By unleashing his skills like that, it's unclear whether Faker was too hasty or overconfident.

SKT's mid and jungle duo missed their most damaging abilities, and Wei Shen instantly saw a glimmer of hope, desperately running downhill towards his teammates.

However, Karma's W skill was triggered after she had only taken one step.

Malzahar was trapped in place, with less than 300 health points remaining.

However, Karma and Gragas are out of abilities right now and can only rely on basic attacks for damage.

Even with Malzahar down to less than 300 health, the basic attacks of these two AP heroes can sustain him for several rounds.

If Karma's RQ hadn't missed, Malzahar would have been dead long ago.

Seeing Malzahar with low health, both Faker and Blank felt unwilling to give up.

Karma used her E skill on Gragas, who then gained a speed boost and continued to stick to Malzahar.

But at this moment, LGD's jungler, support, and bottom laner had already arrived to provide support.

PYL's Lulu used Wild Growth (R) on Malzahar, causing Malzahar's health to suddenly increase significantly, while his size also increased, sending the barrel flying.

Meanwhile, Eimy's Sejuani also unleashed a powerful Ice Prison (R) attack.

Gragas was knocked up by Lulu's ultimate and couldn't use Flash, so he was hit squarely by Sejuani's ultimate and frozen in place. Malzahar created some distance and then used Hades' Grip (R) to suppress Gragas.

Then Sejuani uses her Ice Blast (Q) to lunge forward and knock the barrel away.

Behind him, imp's Varus also fired Corruption Chains (R) at the barrel, continuing the control.

Actually, there was a lot of overlap in the crowd control skills of several LGD players in this wave.

But that didn't matter. Under LGD's series of damage and control skills, Gragas didn't even move before being focused down and killed by LGD.

I've been pressing the F keys on my keyboard until they're practically smoking, but I still haven't been able to use Flash.

He could only watch helplessly as the barrel's health bar was emptied, and then the screen in front of him turned gray.

At this moment, Tristana and Leona had also moved closer.

However, seeing that the Gragas had already been killed, and with only three against four, the SKT players didn't dare to pursue.

As a result, Faker and the SKT bot lane duo had no choice but to retreat towards the mid and bot lanes respectively.

Actually, LGD's decision-making in the previous river team fight wasn't too problematic.

However, they failed to eliminate Leona as quickly as they had done with Gragas, resulting in a direct loss for SKT and ultimately leading to their defeat in subsequent team fights.

After killing the Gragas, LGD finally secured their first kill of the game.

Gragas's death disrupted SKT's momentum.

LGD, who were at a great disadvantage in the early stages, finally saw a glimmer of hope.

In the commentary box.

"In that case, LGD has finally gotten their first kill of the game!" Miller exclaimed, his emotions clearly more excited than before.

“Yes, this wave was a super painful ‘Sha and Sha’ combo that Faker missed!” PDD added.

"Moreover, Eimy has been counter-ganking for so long in this game, and finally he got to ambush someone."

"However, Faker's mistake was the main reason, otherwise Karma's RQ would have instantly killed Malzahar," Remember said.

No sooner had he finished speaking than some more problems arose on the field.

The observer quickly switched the camera to the scene of the incident—in front of SKT's next tower.

The Gragas who had just died had not yet respawned. After the other players on both sides dispersed, LGD's bot lane duo was still blocking SKT's bottom tower and pushing the lane.

The goal is to destroy this defensive tower as quickly as possible.

Wei Shen's Malzahar, after returning to the fountain, teleported from the fountain to the base of his own tower.

Malzahar's teleport was detected by SKT, while Karma's teleport was still active.

Faker immediately directed his bot lane to initiate an attack, and he teleported down immediately.

It's obvious that Faker wants to take advantage of the teleport difference between the two mid laners once again to create a tempo in the side lanes.

Just a few minutes ago, because Wei Shen used Teleport to return to lane, Faker immediately teleported to the top lane, which caused Zhou Dian's top lane tower to be pushed down in one wave, resulting in a huge loss for Cho'Gath!
At that moment, Wei Shen made the same mistake again a few minutes later.

When Zhou Dian saw Malzahar teleport to the mid-lane tower, he immediately panicked.

"GodV, what are you doing? Is this some kind of teleportation skill?"

"Both of you in the bottom lane, retreat quickly! My teleport will be ready in a little over ten seconds!" Zhou Dian said urgently in the LGD team voice chat.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Wei Shen didn't react for a moment.

"Damn it, Karma has already teleported to the bottom lane!" Zhou Dian was speechless.

Upon hearing Zhou Dian's warning, PYL immediately prepared to retreat.

However, it was too late; SKT's bot lane duo had already started to engage.

Leona unleashed her ultimate, Solar Flare (R), which struck Varus, who was standing in front of the tower without Flash.

Varus was immediately stunned and stood there.

Meanwhile, a red teleportation vortex was swirling around SKT's next tower, originating from Karma's teleport.

Fortunately, there were no SKT wards on the bottom lane or in the river bushes, so Faker couldn't teleport behind them and could only teleport to the turret from behind.

In that case, LGD's bot lane duo still has a chance to escape.

Leona's ultimate hit Varus, stunning him, and then Zenith Blade (E) was aimed at Varus's face.

Then Dawnbreaker (Q) strikes Varus, continuing the crowd control.

Leona's Ignite landed on Varus's head while her E skill was being aimed at him.

SKT came on strong, determined to kill Varus and recover the momentum lost when Gragas died.

While Leona was using her REQ combo to control Varus, PYL's Lulu turned the Tristana behind her into a polymorph.

The little cat had just applied Explosive Spark (E) to Varus when Lulu turned him into a polymorph, preventing her from dealing damage immediately after Varus was controlled.

However, the time it takes to polymorph is nowhere near the time it takes for Leona to use her full combo.

After the little cannon emerged from the polymorph state, it immediately used Rocket Jump (W) to sit on Varus's head.

At this moment, Faker's Karma had already teleported to the ground.

Varus had also broken free from Leona's control, and turned around to unleash a Rain of Arrows (E) on the SKT bot lane duo, slowing them down, while he desperately ran towards his own turret.

But Leona and Tristana had already reached Varus, and Varus was also slowed down by Tristana's W skill, so escaping was not so easy!
The small cannon that jumped up quickly ignited the explosive sparks above Varus's head.

If Tristana's E skill is used in an auto-attack, the damage is extremely high.

The damage from Leona's entire skill combo, combined with Tristana's explosive sparks, instantly reduced Varus's health to less than 200 points.

At this point, Varus was only about 200 yards away from the cannon, far from being out of the cannon's range.

With Varus's current health, Tristana can take him down with just two basic attacks.

Then, facing Varus with less than 200 health, Bang actually made a huge, huge, super, super low-level mistake!

Perhaps feeling confident of killing Varus, Bang suddenly decided to save his Tristana ultimate, which seemed insignificant.

The next moment, the little cannon hit Varus with a basic attack, and Varus's health was less than 100 points.

Then the little cannon fired another basic attack.

But just as Lulu unleashed this basic attack, she used her Heal.

Varus's health increased significantly, and more importantly, his movement speed suddenly surged.

The little cannon's basic attack landed on Varus. Although Varus was affected by the healing reduction effect of Ignite, he still had several dozen points of health left and didn't die.

Varus, whose movement speed has increased dramatically, has reached the limit of the cannon's range.

By the time Tristana's basic attack animation ends and she raises her hand for the next basic attack, Varus will definitely be out of Tristana's range.

So, while Varus was still within Tristana's range, Bang used his basic attack and then quickly followed up with his ultimate to blast Varus.

A giant cannonball flew out of the cannon's muzzle, heading straight for Varus, who had only a few dozen points of health left.
