Chapter 91: The Artillery Master Takes Down RNG! [6K, Please Subscribe]

"Holy crap, Zhou, you're playing so cool!"

PYL, who witnessed Jayce's one-on-two fight, could only marvel.

"Basic stuff, basic stuff. It's mainly because my equipment is too good, and my damage is completely excessive. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to make a move like this!"

Zhou Dian continued, "I can only say that Dan played this game well; he completely nurtured my Jayce!"

Eimy didn't know why the wind suddenly blew onto her head.

But upon hearing Zhou Dian's words, Eimy chuckled, "Since you're playing Jayce, of course I have to help! If the jungler isn't going to help, why would we pick Jayce at all!"

imp nodded silently.

After watching Zhou Dian's 1v2 play, he felt that his pressure in the bottom lane was worthwhile.

Unlike the cheerful atmosphere of the LGD players.

There was complete silence in the RNG team's voice chat.

Uzi stared at the gray screen in front of him, subconsciously biting his fingernails and muttering to himself:

"What kind of damage is that Jayce doing?! I should have used Flash!"

Upon hearing this, Ming wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

He quickly said, "My bad, my bad, it's my fault for not blocking Jess's cannon!"

Uzbekistan, please stop talking, I'm scared!
After Kog'Maw and Braum were both killed by Jayce, RNG's game rhythm, which had been focused on pushing the bottom lane duo, was effectively cut off by Zhou Dian.

However, RNG has another point of contention.

That's Xiaohu's Syndra.

Syndra should try to gain an advantage against Azir in lane.

Xiaohu did indeed gain some advantages in the laning phase in this game.

Entering the mid-game, RNG has a chance to regain control of the game by utilizing Syndra's powerful single-target burst damage.

Backstage, RNG's rest area.

Feng was also somewhat relieved at this moment. Fortunately, he chose Syndra for Xiaohu instead of the ultimate four-protect-one lineup with four utility players.

Otherwise, Jayce's double kill just now could very well have ended the game.

However, LGD's new top laner
That's really impressive!
Where did LGD find this?
Why can't RNG find a top laner like that?

Zhou Dian pushed the bottom lane minion wave to RNG's bottom tower and started attacking it.

At this moment, Kog'Maw and Braum are still in the fountain and haven't respawned. The other four players from LGD are applying pressure in the mid and top lanes at the same time, which has resulted in the entire bot lane of RNG being in a vacuum and undefended.

Jayce, thanks to his Super Charge (Cannon Form W) skill, has an absolutely top-tier tower-pushing speed in the early and mid-game.

Soon, Jayce destroyed RNG's bottom lane turret.

Zhou Dian did not choose to send the vanguard to continue pushing down the second tower, but instead returned to base directly.

This vanguard needs to be saved to push down the mid-lane tower.

He knew very well that RNG needed to rely on Syndra to create momentum.

So, if I push down your mid tower, how are you going to find your rhythm?
Back at the fountain, Zhou Dian immediately said, "Brothers, push the middle tower, I'll be the vanguard!"

After securing two kills in the bottom lane, clearing two waves of minions, and taking down a turret, Jayce had another huge sum of money on him.

Zhou Dian bought a B.F. Sword and then controlled Jayce to head straight for the mid lane.

PYL, who was in charge of the team, repeated Zhou Dian's words and called for everyone to gather in the mid lane.

However, as soon as LGD gathered, RNG immediately noticed.

Little Tiger quickly called Big Tree and Jade God to come and help guard the tower.

As for Kog'Maw and Braum?
After respawning, they went straight to the bottom lane.

At this moment, a large wave of minions was gathered in front of RNG's bottom lane second tower.

When Zhou Dian's Jayce reached the location of his own second mid-lane tower, he turned right and entered his own red buff area.

Jess continued forward and came to the lower riverbed.

Using the corner of the wall as a viewpoint, Jayce raised his hand and fired a QE enhanced shot.

Syndra, who was under the tower, was hit squarely by this shot and lost more than 40% of her health.

Xiaohu was startled; what kind of crazy damage was that from Jayce!

At this moment, Jayce also came out of the river and joined his teammates, pushing the minion wave into RNG's mid-lane tower.

Xiaohu immediately pressed the Tab key to take a look at Jayce's equipment.

wipe!
Besides Youmuu's Ghostblade, there are also daggers and Stormbreakers.

Even the Curtain Blade is only one 800-yuan synthesis fee away from being completed!

Then look at your Syndra, who's currently stuck with a ghost book.

Syndra has Morellonomicon, which is already slightly ahead of the normal timeline, but Jayce is almost at two items already.

Damn it, who raised him?
Syndra was thoroughly wrecked by Jayce's cannon, but Xiaohu dared not utter a word of anger!

A wave of minions pushed into the tower, and Jayce and Ezreal each landed a few auto-attacks, taking down half of RNG's first tower's health.

Then, the minion wave was cleared, and the LGD players temporarily retreated.

"Xiao Zhou, lead the charge!" PYL said.

"No rush, let's wait and see!"

Zhou Dian continued, "If I can hit Syndra with one more shot, I can take down a tower without the Vanguard!"

Zhou Dian has bigger ambitions; he wants to push down RNG's second mid-lane tower.

At this moment, under RNG's first tower, Ivern planted a bunch of bushes.

However, Eimy and PYL are constantly placing wards in the grass at the very front.

The Spider has a Sightstone jungle item, Bard has a Sightstone, and both of them also have two Control Wards.

As soon as an eye is removed, a new eye is immediately inserted.

So capricious!
Before the next wave of minions was pushed into the tower, Zhou Dian's Jayce secretly ran to the corner of the red side's F6 camp.

Suddenly realizing that Jayce was gone, Xiaohu felt a pang of anxiety, but then he remembered that with Chrysanthemum and the big tree blocking his way, and that he was still standing in the grass by the Green God, how could Jayce's cannon possibly hit him?

The next moment, an electric ball flew over the thick wall of the six-bird camp and arrived at RNG's mid tower, right in the middle of Syndra hiding behind a big tree.

After taking another hit from Jayce, Syndra's health was reduced to less than 20%.

As Jayce fired his cannon, imp's Ezreal simultaneously activated his ultimate.

Fortunately, Xiaohu was focused enough and managed to use Flash in time before EZ's precise barrage (R) hit him.

Syndra used Flash to dodge Ezreal's ultimate.

But with Syndra's current health, she can no longer stay in the mid lane.

Xiao Hu quickly retreated to the second tower to return to the city.

Without Syndra, how can the tower be defended by just the Great Tree and the Green God?

Mlxg quickly called his bot lane duo to help defend the tower.

"Shi Senming, you go first, I'll finish these minions and come right away!" Uzi said.

Ming quickly headed towards the middle lane.

When Braum arrived in the mid lane, LGD had just destroyed RNG's mid lane tower.

Ming quickly maneuvered Braum into the second tower to defend it with Ueno.

Judging from LGD's posture, it's obvious they want to push the second tower.

Jayce crushed the Herald's Eye, summoning the Rift Herald.

With both carries absent and only three utility players remaining, it seems unlikely that RNG can defend the mid-lane second tower.

"Brothers, hold on! I'm holding on! I'm holding on!" Uzi finished clearing the bottom lane minions and quickly headed towards the mid lane.

Big Mouth is almost at the mid lane.

At that moment, a ball of light flew towards the big mouth.

That's Bard's ultimate move—Harmonizing Fate.

Uzi frantically clicked the mouse to move, but unfortunately, he still couldn't dodge it.

Kog'Maw was hit by Bard's ultimate and turned into a golden statue, unable to move.

Seeing this, Zhou Dian immediately said, "Nice, Captain Ping, your ultimate move was spot on!"

“That’s right! Don’t you even know who’s playing Bard?” PYL said with a hint of pride.

On the front, as the Rift Herald rammed into RNG's mid-lane second turret, the LGD players swarmed in, ignoring RNG's mid, jungle, and support, and destroyed the turret.

By the time Kog'Maw was out of his invincible state and Syndra came out of her base, the LGD team had already left.

As the commander, PYL was very clear-headed. He advised LGD's poke composition not to engage in all-in team fights without having established a sufficient health advantage.

In the commentary box.

"Wow, wow, wow! Nobody expected that LGD's sudden mid-lane team fight would actually take down both of RNG's outer mid-lane towers!" Wawa exclaimed.

"Yes!" Miller nodded. "It all started with Jayce's double kill in the bot lane. This relentless pace has left RNG struggling to breathe!"

"Of course, the key point is still Jayce's poke!"

"Zhou's Jayce shots were too accurate. If Jayce hadn't sent Syndra back to base with two shots, LGD would have only taken down RNG's mid-lane turret at most, and wouldn't have been able to threaten the second turret!"

Next, LGD continued to group up and push towers.

On LGD's side, Jayce, Azir, and Ezreal can all poke, and even Elise can poke a couple of times.

Moreover, the players from LGD all have a very wide skill range.

The strain on RNG was immense.

Although RNG has Braum and Maokai, which are theoretically strong counters to poke compositions.

But that will have to wait until the meat is ready!

Before Braum gets tanky, although he has a shield that can block skills, the cooldown is too long, so he can't block them all.

RNG's frontliners are completely unable to withstand the poke damage from LGD's three carries.

Although imp's Ezreal has poor farm, Ezreal items are cheap and his skills have high base damage, so he can keep up with the damage output in the mid-game.

RNG's lineup lacks strong initiation capabilities. Every time RNG pushes forward to try and engage, Bard's Tunnel opens, and LGD players simply slip through and escape.

The RNG players didn't dare to go through the tunnel to chase after them.

Isn't that a gift?

Then, as soon as RNG retreated, LGD came back with renewed force.

Relying on their sharp poke, LGD grouped up and pushed down RNG's remaining three outer towers.

The game had only been going on for twenty minutes when all six of RNG's outer towers were destroyed.

In the LGD team voice chat.

"Push faster, push faster, let's end this game as soon as possible!" PYL urged.

"Don't drag this out too long. If we drag it out, we won't be able to poke their front line anymore, and we don't have a front line on our side, so we can't withstand Kog'Maw's damage!"

Upon hearing this, GodV immediately retorted, "What are you talking about? In the late game, isn't my Azir much stronger than Uzi's Kog'Maw?"

PYL didn't continue the topic and directly instructed his teammates to force a team fight at Baron.

After a skirmish in the upper river, LGD cleared RNG's vision around Baron Nashor. LGD's poke was too strong, easily securing vision.

In areas where LGD lacked vision control, Uzi secretly teleported back to base.

With all of RNG's resources, Kog'Maw managed to farm three lanes of minions and jungle camps, finally completing his three-item build.

At this point, Kog'Maw's equipment was second only to Jayce and ahead of everyone else on the field.

RNG is 6,000 gold behind, so it's really not easy for Kog'Maw to have such excellent development.

"I can take this wave, I have three items, I'm invincible!" Uzi said confidently.

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge ball of light flew out from the side and landed precisely on Big Mouth.

The shield next to him was held at a slight angle, and Jayce's cannonball flew past the edge.

“Mine! Mine!” Ming quickly exclaimed.

Seeing the Kog'Maw, who had just bought new equipment, take this shot and lose half of his health, the viewers in the live stream couldn't hold back their excitement.

No, Braum's doing some serious fighting, he's even managing to tilt his shield!

[6. Always blaming the support, doesn't Kog'Maw have legs? Couldn't he have dodged it?]

[What do you know? Braum holding his shield askew is called a leak!]

Oh, do you have any leak-proof ones?

[To be honest, Zhou is an absolute master of artillery; Jess's shot was incredibly accurate!]

[A master of artillery? Something's not right!]

【.】

Uzi was extremely frustrated at this moment.

"Holy crap, how come this B-rank Jayce's skills are so accurate!"

He complained, but there was no time for Big Mouth to go back to base and recover his health.

If Da Kog'Maw dares to B, LGD will definitely take Baron.

Uzi wanted to go to the mid lane to last-hit minions and heal.

However, LGD had vision around the river, and as soon as Kog'Maw turned around and took two steps toward the mid lane, LGD started attacking Baron.

"Go straight, go straight! I don't want to wait to die!" Mlxg roared, and Emerald God summoned Chrysanthemum to charge forward.

However, there was someone who rushed forward even faster than Xiaoju.

The giant tree has already unleashed its ultimate attack and charged forward.

Letme was already numb from the torment of this game; for him, the life or death of the tree was no longer important.

The big tree's current economy is only slightly higher than its own support, and not even as high as Bard's.

But because he is a big tree, even if he is underdeveloped, he still plays a significant role in team fights.

This is why this hero has such a high pick rate in the LPL.

Seeing the big tree charging towards them, the LGD players quickly retreated from the Baron pit.

The main problem for LGD in this game is that they lack a strong frontline tank, making it difficult for them to withstand the damage from Baron Nashor and engage in team fights. This makes them vulnerable to being trapped in the Baron pit and getting brutally beaten.

Seeing LGD decisively give up Baron and refuse to engage in team fights, the RNG players were furious, but there was nothing they could do.

We can only temporarily separate them.

Just then, Bard suddenly threw out a glowing object that flew towards RNG's backline.

Uzi didn't choose to use Flash because he felt that even if he got hit by Bard's ultimate, it wouldn't matter.

Despite his maneuvering, Kog'Maw couldn't dodge Bard's ultimate and was hit at the edge, instantly turning into invulnerable on the spot.

"Protect me, protect me!" Uzi shouted repeatedly.

RNG players quickly tightened their formation and surrounded Da Kog'Maw.

LGD's side.

Seeing Bard's ultimate freeze Kog'Maw, PYL shouted, "It's hit! Charge!"

GodV took the lead, timing Bard's ultimate ability to end perfectly, and controlled Azir to drift up using WEQ.

GodV was very confident in this move; he was certain that as soon as Kog'Maw's invincibility ended, he would be able to push Kog'Maw back.

As for himself, with Central Asia under his control, he's practically invincible!
However.
Snapped!
The Tsar, halfway through his drift, was hit head-on in the face by a dark orb.

Xiaohu's Syndra interrupted Azir's drift with her QE combo and stunned him.

Syndra then unleashed her entire combo of skills, causing Azir's health to plummet!
Having just emerged from his invincible state, Big Mouth activated Biohazard Barrage (W) and dealt damage from a great distance, killing Tsar in two hits.

"Swell forward, swell forward!" Uzi roared, controlling Kog'Maw to charge forward.

The enemy Tsar has been eliminated; now is the best time to turn the tide.

If we leave a few of the opposing team members behind and take Baron Nashor, then we've really turned the tide!

The important thing is that Kog'Maw's W skill doesn't last long. If they don't start the fight now, and wait until Kog'Maw's W skill ends, even if RNG has a 5v4 advantage, they might not be able to win.

Because the other four players on RNG have really bad equipment!
"Wei Shen just gave away the game for free here. LGD is missing their key mid laner, and RNG has a chance to win this team fight!" Wawa's voice suddenly became louder.

"With three items, Kog'Maw's damage output is incredibly high! Huh?!"

The doll's narration came to an abrupt halt, like a crowing rooster being grabbed by the neck.

LGDZhou (Future Guardian) killed RNGUzi (Mouth of the Abyss)

Big Mouth's sudden death stunned everyone.

"The puppy fell down!!"

"My God! EZ's ultimate, plus Jayce's shot, killed Kog'Maw in one go!" Miller exclaimed.

"Uzi probably never expected to be hit by both skills at the same time, and he didn't even have time to use Flash!"

With Kog'Maw dead, RNG collapsed!

With only three support champions left, plus a Syndra who was underdeveloped and had no ultimate ability, imp's Ezreal had already used his E to lock down the enemy.

Jess immediately switched to hammer form and slammed it down.

In the end, only Xiaohu and Xiaoming escaped from RNG's side, while Letme and Mlxg were killed one after another.

In other words, LGD's lineup doesn't have a strong ability to keep enemies in place.

Otherwise, none of RNG's players will escape this wave!
After winning the team fight, LGD took the Baron Nashor.

"I honestly didn't notice where Zhou's shot came from!"

In the commentary booth, Wawa and Miller were still discussing the combo that Zhou Dian and Imp had just executed.
Of course, it wasn't just the commentators who were curious; many viewers were too.

The director provided a replay at the appropriate time.

This time, everyone was watching Jess.

After Kog'Maw was stunned by Bard's ultimate, the rest of LGD rushed forward, but Jayce turned and went into the Baron pit.

Then the Tsar was instantly killed, and the RNG team immediately launched a counterattack.

imp's Ezreal uses his ultimate first.

Kog'Maw didn't even try to dodge EZ's precise barrage (R).

Uzi's thinking is understandable; if Kog'Maw tries to avoid Ezreal's ultimate, he'll waste the precious duration of his W skill.

With the large tree and Daisy blocking the way, EZ's ultimate skill deals significantly less damage after passing through them, making Kog'Maw able to withstand the damage completely.

EZ's ultimate had just swept past RNG's front line when Jayce in the Baron pit raised his hand and unleashed a QE combo.

This shot flew out from the thick walls of the dragon pit, passing through the gap between Ivern and Syndra at an extremely tricky angle, and landed on Kog'Maw at the same time as Ezreal's ultimate.

For Uzi, by the time he saw that huge ball of light, it was already flying right up to his face.

Uzi, whose attention was entirely focused on what was in front of him, was already too slow to react.

And so, Big Mouth met his end!
"Imp, that ultimate move was spot on!"

"Your Jayce, your shots are accurate too!"

This is a conversation between Zhou Dian and imp in the LGD team's voice chat at the time.

After the replay ended, Bai Zi stopped talking in the live broadcast room, and the chat became a celebration for the haters.

[Should I save my Flash for the next game?]

Stop the criticism, there's no second game, RNG is going to be swept 0-2!

[This Zhou is a true artillery genius; he can accurately hit Uzbekistan even through several people!]

[Close the lock, it's pointless!]

[Uzbekistan is such a good guy! Your Tsar gave it to you for free, huh? I won't take advantage of you, I'll give you my big mouth too!]

This is a classic case of reciprocity!

[That Jayce pick was brilliant! Only Shockwave can counter Shockwave!]

【.】

After securing the Baron, LGD collectively recalled to base to replenish their supplies.

Then, the five of them, with the Baron buff, grouped up and pushed down the middle lane.

At this point, LGD's economic lead had exceeded 10,000 gold.

Zhou Dian felt that they had already secured the victory in this game.

After all, their team name starts with "L", not "E".

Faced with LGD's group push in the mid lane, RNG players turreted under their high ground tower to clear minions, hoping to stall for the duration of the Baron buff.

However, even under the tower, RNG couldn't hold their ground against Jayce, Ezreal, and Azir.

Jayce with a full five-piece armor penetration set can now unleash a devastating attack that will impregnate anyone who hits him; no one can withstand it.

imp's Ezreal also kept casting Mystic Shot (Q) outside the turret to harass the enemy.

Although EZ's Q skill can't compare to Jayce's cannon shot in terms of damage, its short cooldown is a huge advantage!

RNG's courage seemed to have been completely worn down by LGD, and they could only passively endure LGD's poke without having the courage to initiate a team fight.

RNG retreated again and again, and their mid lane was completely destroyed by LGD.

"Wave after wave after wave!" PYL passionately commanded.

LGD stopped trying to break through RNG's side lanes and went straight for the Nexus turrets.

After their health was nearly depleted, Bard used his ultimate to taunt the turret, and the LGD players swarmed in to initiate a team fight under the turret.

RNG crumbled instantly!

Uzi's Kog'Maw had only been dealing damage for two seconds when he was reduced to low health by AOE damage.

He quickly used Flash to create distance, trying to escape back to the fountain.

However, just as Kog'Maw escaped to the fountain entrance, Jayce raised his hand and fired a QE shot, hitting the target precisely!

Big Mouth unleashed an explosive attack.

After a devastating team fight, RNG's two inhibitor turrets fell one after another.

In the commentary box.

Miller shouted, "Let's congratulate LGD on defeating RNG 2-0, ending RNG's winning streak and their own three-game losing streak!"

My cold symptoms are getting pretty bad, I can't take it anymore, I can't concentrate at all, I need to go to bed.
