LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

Chapter 293 Beyond the Fear of Death! The War of the Century!

Lee Sin hit Braum with a sound wave, and the echo knocked him away, and then used the E skill to hit the ground.

Kaisa fought and retreated, but Minotaur and Varus also came over.

Shen TPs to the ground and uses his E skill to taunt Braum. Braum doesn't have an E skill at this time, so he can only let Kaisa sell him out:

"Come on, you go first."

Minotaur followed up with a double combo, and Varus finished with a Q skill, getting the kill!

Wawa commented: "TL's desire to attack is so strong. I feel like they are more difficult to beat than GEN yesterday!"

"Could it be true what Brother Mozi said? Is GEN likely to fail in the round of 16?"

In the official live broadcast room, the comments were all:

"Am I the only one who feels that EDG is letting TL down on purpose? They are trying to disgust GEN."

"What are you talking about? Is it necessary for EDG to do this?"

"Do you think too highly of GEN? Do EDG really need to mess with him like this?"

"Are you starting to make excuses for GEN?"

The game continued in the top lane. After Su Mo and the factory manager took down the first tower in the top lane, they pushed the second tower in the top lane with the low-health Rift Herald.

In the middle lane, Scout reminded: "The opponent's mid laner is gone."

The factory manager commanded: "Xiao Mo, let's go first, the people on the other side are coming."

So he disappeared from the west side, and it was time to leave, so Su Mo and the factory director retreated.

The two duos switched lanes to the middle lane, and Lee Sin took down the second dragon.

Wawa explained: "Kai'Sa's development is really poor right now. We must give him some time to develop. Otherwise, the output in team battles will not be enough. It will not work just relying on Urgot."

Rita was not in a hurry at all: "Although TL is ahead in kills, the economy is now the same. If you look at the last hits, you can see that the gap in the top lane is more than 50 knives, which is very obvious."

Su Mo continued to lead the troops in the top lane, and this time he asked Scout to lead the troops in the bottom lane.

Sixteen minutes into the game, the third dragon was about to spawn, TL gathered in advance to gain vision and light up the area near the dragon pit.

On the EDG side, the factory manager asked: "Can we join the team now?"

He mainly asked about Su Mo. Su Mo was the absolute core in this game, at least for now. Kaisa's development was too poor and he just got a big item.

Su Mo replied: "Okay, but you guys hold them off first, I'll push the second tower on the opposite side."

Now the opponents are all down there, it's a good opportunity to push the tower.

Su Mo approached the defensive tower and ignored the existence of the opponent's Shen, who pushed the line of troops quite slowly.

Seeing that Su Mo wanted to destroy the tower, Shenyi used his E skill, but Su Mo decisively moved away.

Miller commented: "Very courageous! Just rely on positioning. If he is taunted and attracts the hatred of the defensive tower, Urgot will be in trouble."

Su Mo walked around the defensive tower, dealing damage while moving. The second tower in the top lane had been hit by the Rift Herald and its health was already low.

The opposing Shen can only give up the top lane tower, otherwise it will be very dangerous without him in the defense tower.

On the front, EDG and TL continued to fight for vision. The little dragon refreshed. Su Mo TPed to the front and came over to fight with his teammates.

The opponent's Shen had a big move, but he didn't come over immediately.

Seeing Su Mo's TP, the EDG players became bolder and dragged out the dragon to fight.

Rita commented: "It's five on five now, a very crucial teamfight. The opponent's Varus is developing better and is almost equipped with two sets of equipment, while Urgot only has one and a half sets. EDG must be extremely careful in this teamfight."

Scout's Lissandra was circling around the dragon pit, trying to find a perfect opportunity to enter.

The little dragon’s health reached half, then one third, and now it’s 2,000 points, and is about to enter the punishment killing line!
The blind monk approached and the sound wave hit the little dragon.

"Stop." The factory manager asked his teammates to stop. If they continued to fight at this time, it would be easy to be snatched away. Echo Shot combined with Punishment was much more useful than the factory manager's Punishment.

"I'll go up and put pressure on the opponent." Su Mo's Urgot walked forward to put pressure on the opponent, and used a Q skill to force back the opponent's Lee Sin.

Just then, Niutou had an idea!

Wawa exclaimed: "Tauren, think about it! If he is controlled by the Tauren, even Varus and his ultimate will make Urgot unable to withstand it!"

"Ataur's EQ combo... Urgot successfully countered! Can we still play like this?"

What no one expected was that the moment Minotaur came up for the second time, Urgot used his E skill, intercepted Minotaur in mid-air, and threw him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

Minotaur activated his ultimate, knocked Su Mo away with one Q skill, and Varus followed up with his ultimate.

Miller commented: "Although Urgot's counterattack was very beautiful, Alistar had a big move, and Varus still controlled him. Braum jumped up to give a shield, Syndra was using skills to output, and his big move was still reserved!"

"The blind monk has entered the field, and his target is Kai'Sa! Now Kai'Sa has no one to protect her, so Kai'Sa uses her E skill to pull and damage, but the blind monk has Shen's ultimate skill!"

Zhazi has gone to find Varus on the opposite side and uses his E skill. Syndra counterattacks with QE to push him away. Varus starts to attack Zhazi, and Su Mo's Urgot continues to rush forward with Braum.

Braum used his ultimate to force Varus to flash.

Su Mo commanded: "My next E is almost ready, we can kill!"

At this moment, Scout's Lissandra suddenly appeared behind Varus and Syndra, controlled the two with one W and used her ultimate on Syndra.

Rita became excited: "Successful in flanking! Varus and Syndra can't escape! But! Alistar flashed WQ and knocked up Urgot and Braum. Kaisa was also killed. The opponent's top and jungle came back to help."

The situation became a bit complicated. Su Mo marked Varus on the opposite side: "Kill him first."

While speaking, Su Mo had already used his ultimate skill, and the fear beyond death hit Varus.

Zhao Xin flashes up and uses three stages of Q skills, the damage is enough!
Su Mo used his E skill to get close to Syndra. Syndra flashed back and Su Mo followed up and used his ultimate to execute Varus!

Wawa commented: "Sindra can't escape, fear beyond death! Execute Varus, fear Syndra! In this exchange of back row, EDG is more powerful!"

Miller continued: "I feel that TL's teamfight strategy is wrong. Their Lee Sin and Shen should protect Big Brother and should not go to cut the back row. Right now Kai'Sa's output is much worse than Varus'."

Seeing that both Cs were killed, the TL team chose to give up.

At this time, the EDG manager cheered, "Nice, we won! The opponent doesn't dare to come!"

Meiko said: "Suddenly I feel that TL is also very difficult to beat. It's really strenuous, much harder than I thought."

Iboy agreed: "These guys are all capable of manipulation, but I can't do it."

Su Mo said, "I told you that Europe and the United States are very strong this year. I didn't lie to you."

The factory manager said with disdain: "We underestimated the enemy this time. We should be more careful next time so that it won't be so difficult to fight."

Su Mo stayed in the bottom lane to develop, and both sides returned to the development state.

Nineteen minutes into the game, Su Mo was leading the troops in the bottom lane. The opponent controlled the vision of the upper jungle area and ambushed Meiko, the factory manager, who was providing vision. One of them died and the other was injured.

"The Lee Sin on the opposite side is so crazy, he attacks everyone he sees." Meiko complained.

Scout had no choice but to give up the top lane tower, otherwise he would be in danger.

Su Mo was pushing the tower in the bottom lane and continued to ignore the opposing Shen.

Twenty-two minutes into the game, the fourth dragon spawned.

Because the rhythm of the little dragon was interrupted, TL did not rush to take the little dragon and continued to control the vision of EDG's upper jungle area.

Wawa commented: "I found that TL's thinking was very clear. They bypassed Urgot. With Urgot in the bottom lane, they only attacked the upper half of the jungle, causing EDG to not dare to go in."

"Urgot has no TP, the opponent's Shen has an ultimate, but Urgot has TPed well, can TL still play like this?"

Miller continued: "The strength shown by TL did surprise me a little bit. The key is that they are very brave and not afraid at all. They are not playing randomly. At present, they are only invading the jungle area and have not yet reached the stage of directly attacking the dragon."

Zzitai and Meiko tried every means to get to the Baron pit to gain vision, but they were afraid of being attacked.

Iboy used the divination orb to take a look at the bushes above the Baron pit, and sure enough, the opposing duo and jungler were lying in ambush.

The factory manager went around the top lane and came to the triangle grass above, where he was finally able to place a ward.

But soon, the opposing duo pushed a wave of soldiers in the middle lane and came over, taking away the factory manager's vision.

The two sides kept fighting over vision, and TL was waiting for EDG to make a mistake.

Su Mo was pushing the second tower in the bottom lane. Now Shen had brought out the giant Hydra, and with the help of Sunfire, he was pushing the line very quickly. Su Mo couldn't push as hard as before, and his progress was slow.

Twenty-five minutes into the game, suddenly, the factory manager was caught making a mistake!
The opponent ambushed the Minotaur in the bushes, and used WQ to force the factory manager to flash. The blind monk's sound wave hit him, and the echo knocked him over. Zhao Xin used his ultimate skill, Crescent Ward, to sweep the blind monk away.

"I don't have flash and I don't have an ultimate." The factory manager reported the situation.

Meiko felt a headache: "Then it will be difficult for us to maintain vision. It will be very dangerous to go over there."

Su Mo could only go back to the city for supplies and walked out of his house: "I'm coming, come with me."

He came back specifically to help with the vision.

The factory manager complained: "A team like TL is so rigorous that I thought I was playing against KT."

Su Mo smiled: "European and American losers will also improve, it's normal."

Scout's Lissandra came over from the top lane, and now all five EDG players are near the Baron pit.

Rita commented: "The enemy Shen is still pushing the minion line. The minion line is about to be pushed over, leaving Urgot with little time. TL is also very smart. When Urgot is in the front, they will disperse and go to push the line and develop."

"EDG took this opportunity to regain vision of the Baron pit, but the question is, what should we do after Mozi returns to the bottom lane?"

Wawa continued: "Why do I feel that TL's rhythm is very suffocating? Is this still the European and American team I am familiar with?"

EDG regained the vision of the Baron pit. Su Mo commanded: "Scout, you go to the bottom lane, I'll lead the top lane."

So Scout went straight to the bottom lane to lead the line and defend the defensive tower, and Su Mo switched to the top lane.

Rita's eyes lit up: "If Mozi switches to the top lane, the situation will be different. Will the opponent dare to be as aggressive as before? If they continue to invade, Mozi will not tolerate it."

Su Mo began to lead the EDG team to counterattack, first pushing the top lane, and taking the factory manager to the upper jungle area of ​​the opposite side to gain vision.

"Push the troops in the middle lane. Now it's their turn to withstand the pressure." Su Mo commanded.

EDG's mid and top lanes were both pushing the troops, and EDG controlled TL's upper jungle vision, so the initiative was in EDG's hands. In the top lane, Impact's Shen came back to defend, but Urgot and Lee Sin had disappeared. Impact could only signal to his teammates: "The top laner on the opposite side is gone, you guys be careful."

Soon, Urgot and Lee Sin appeared in the middle lane. Four EDG players pressed the middle lane, and the soldiers entered the defensive tower. Su Mo took the lead and put pressure on them. Only then did Kaisa dare to go up and attack the tower.

Wawa commented: "EDG started to play minion line operation with TL, creating a time difference. Urgot has the lane control, so he can push the minion line first, and then meet up with his teammates to push the middle lane together. Now there are few people in the middle lane of TL and they don't dare to come up."

Seeing the defensive tower's health getting lower and lower, the opposing support Minotaur couldn't help it and came up to put pressure on it, trying to force Su Mo to retreat.

Su Mo used his Q skill to slow down the opponent, and then used a basic attack to deal damage.

Kaisa follows up with a W to search the enemy in the void, and Xin Zhao's W slows down.

The opposing Minotaur was bombarded.

At this moment, Niutou suddenly took action!

Flash WQ to knock up Kaisa, Lissandra and Xin Zhao!
Wawa passionately explained: "Miniu found a perfect opportunity to start a team fight. Shen's ultimate was used on Aliu. Lee Sin used his ward and R to flash. Kai'Sa was kicked back and couldn't move due to the chain control! Varus used R to flash and followed up with the control. EDG couldn't handle this team fight!"

"Kai'Sa was killed instantly by Lee Sin's Echo Slam, Varus's ultimate controlled Braum, so Braum couldn't use his shield to help, Shen's ultimate landed and he taunted Xin Zhao with his E skill..."

Both mid laners gave TP, but it seemed that they could not wait for the TP to land.

The factory manager quickly called out, "Let's go! We can't win anymore. Let's go!"

Su Mo's voice suddenly came: "You can fight, the back row is gone!"

Just when everyone thought that EDG had lost this team fight, suddenly, everyone noticed that the situation had changed a little!
Su Mo's Urgot flashed E to the opposite Varus, landed and used the ultimate, followed by Q and W to output crazy damage.

Varus' health dropped very quickly and he was left with little health in a blink of an eye.

"factory!"

The factory manager understood what he meant and used his ultimate to hit the opposing Lee Sin and Shen. Su Mo retreated and activated his ultimate, overcoming the fear of death!
Varus was dragged back and executed! Lee Sin and Shen were both feared.

Rita cheered: "Brother Mozi not only killed Varus, but also frightened the two opponents. Zhao Xin followed up with the output, and Urgot attacked Lee Sin face to face. Lee Sin was taken down, and the time for Minotaur's ultimate skill was over. Minotaur was also very fragile."

"Mini-Ox's two-hit combo sends Urgot flying. Syndra follows up with QE, W, and ultimate. Urgot is not dead yet. Lissandra enters the game!"

After Scout's Lissandra TPs to the ground, she uses her E skill to attack the opponent, uses the second E to flash, and uses QW to control the opponent's Minotaur and Syndra, and then uses the ultimate skill to attack Syndra.

Su Mo walked forward and threw him over his shoulder, Braum followed up with Q and activated his passive, Syndra was controlled continuously and unable to move, and gave up the kill. Finally, it was the low-health Minotaur who had no ultimate and was easily taken down by EDG.

Wawa commented: "It was so crucial! If Urgot hadn't dealt with the opponent's Varus in this teamfight, EDG would probably not have won. Now there is only one Shen left who used his E skill to run away, and EDG won the teamfight."

"You can go for the Baron! Urgot destroyed the middle tower first, then went for the Baron pit. TL was unable to stop him."

At this time, Iboy on EDG's side was still in shock: "Nice, I was scared to death. I thought something big was going to go wrong. The opposing Minotaur really dared to come up."

Su Mo said, "It's unlike you, Xiao Zhao, who didn't even react."

Iboy laughed and said, "My, my, I was slow to react. I saw you in front and thought the other side didn't dare to open it."

Su Mo jokingly said, "It's still my problem."

Iboy quickly said: "How is that possible? It's my own problem."

The EDG players were chatting and laughing as they took down the Baron.

The factory manager was relieved: "TL is more difficult to deal with than I thought. I thought I could easily deal with it, but now it is definitely stable."

The five EDG players returned to the city for supplies, pushed the line, got the buff, and then gathered in the middle lane to advance.

Wawa commented: "Now it's EDG's turn to push. They are 5,000 gold ahead. Can TL hold on?"

"The soldiers entered the defensive tower. Urgot's position was very aggressive. Would the opponent's Minotaur dare to attack? Urgot has Bloodthirsty Hand. Even if Syndra gave him all her skills, he should not be able to be killed in one second. In addition, there is Braum's protection."

Niu Tou naturally knew all this, so he just came up and pretended, and did not take direct action.

Two artillery vehicles strengthened by the dragon's buff attacked the defense tower from a very long distance, and the defense tower had little health left.

The TL players began to hesitate and retreat, seemingly planning to abandon the defensive tower.

At this moment, Iboy saw an opportunity! Varus on the opposite side was charging up to release his Q skill.

So Kaisa used her W to search the enemy in the void and hit it!
"We can fight!" Su Mo was quick-witted and used his ultimate skill, Fear Beyond Death, directly hitting Varus and slowing him down!
Miller became excited: "Hey! It seems that the eldest brother was left behind. He is very uncomfortable now because he is slowed down. Lissandra came up and used her E skill."

"The other members of TL turned back and wanted to protect, but can they? Minotaur wanted to push Lissandra away, but the distance was not enough..."

Suddenly, Kaisa flashed across the screen and approached Varus.

Rita passionately explained: "Kai'Sa enters the field! Icathia's rainstorm, starts close combat to avoid Syndra's weak ones and retreats, Lissandra enters the field, W controls three people, and the ultimate is for herself! Minotaur's two consecutive hits are in vain!"

"Braum's ultimate knocked Minotaur and Varus away. Varus didn't have much health left, and even Shen's ultimate couldn't save him. Urgot used his E skill to rush forward, activated his ultimate again, and executed Varus with the fear beyond death!"

Su Mo executed Varus to frighten the opposing Minotaur, who then activated his ultimate. Su Mo chased after the Minotaur and dealt damage. Then Zz1tai's Xin Zhao entered the field and used his ultimate, Crescent Guardian, to sweep away all the TL players. Kai'Sa's golden body ended and she continued to deal damage, and TL was directly defeated in the team battle!
"Sindra, Syndra!" Iboy's Kaisa used the E skill to speed up and dodge the opponent's Lee Sin's sound wave. Lee Sin turned around and wanted to kick Kaisa away, but Kaisa kept his distance and didn't give Lee Sin a chance to kick.

Lee Sin covered Syndra's retreat, and no one cared about Shen and Alistar. They took full advantage of Su Mo's output and fell one after another.

Miller commented: "The two sides fought a 0-for-3 teamfight. EDG's overwhelming offensive crushed TL. Now they are about to end the game in one wave!"

Wawa continued: "In this game, TL showed us their strong strength. It is indeed different from before. But unfortunately, they met EDG. EDG was able to win the game in the end."

On the field, on EDG's side, the factory manager shouted: "One wave, one wave, we win!"

Meiko said, "Very handsome, Xiao Zhao, you have regained your status."

Iboy smiled and said, "Isn't this a basic operation? This is how Kai'Sa is played."

The EDG team took the middle lane high ground and went straight to the front tower. Syndra and Lee Sin wanted to resist, but it was of no use and they were finally taken away in one wave.

"EDG! EDG! EDG!" The EDG fans at the scene cheered in unison. On the stage, the EDG players stood up and walked over to TL to shake hands.

After the handshake, they went straight to the lounge, and Iboy was left behind for an interview.

After Iboy came back, all EDG members left together, first went back to eat, then reviewed the game and continued training.

The next day was the third match day of the first round of the group stage.

EDG's task today is relatively easy, just one game, and the opponent is VIT.

VIT had never won before, so Su Mo let Zizi take over and finally won easily.

As a result, EDG won all the first rounds with a record of three bars and zero.

However, after defeating VIT, the EDG players did not leave immediately because there was another crucial game today, IG vs. KT!

This game is very crucial for both LPL and LCK regions.

It is not surprising that EDG can beat GEN, nor does it mean that LPL is stronger than LCK now. After all, GEN is only the third seed.

However, if IG can beat KT, it will be different.

Moreover, IG is very strong on paper now, so it’s not that they have no chance of beating KT.

"The next game is between KT and IG." Abu's voice came.

Su Mo looked up and saw that it was break time. The next game was between KT and IG.

Meiko muttered: "I feel like KT has a better chance of winning. After all, they are the No. 1 seed in LCK. If they lose to IG, it will be a bit embarrassing."

The factory manager said: "If you can't beat me, you can't beat me. If you can't beat me, you can't beat me. There's nothing good or bad about it."

Abu called out, "Watch carefully. Even if IG can't beat them, KT must go all out, otherwise they might crash. We should be able to see something."

Just then, everyone's cell phone rang, and Su Mo took it out and took a look.

IG, Ning: "Brothers, we are going to play against KT."

IG: Jackeylove: "Live teaching on how to play against KT."

EDG, Mo: “Sure, we’re all watching.”

EDG, Meiko: "From now on, for the next hour, we are fans of IG."

IG, Baolan: "Only one hour? Will love disappear? Tian Ye."

IG, Ning: "Princess Blue, can you please stop being so disgusting?"

RNG, Xiaohu: "Come on IG, we are all watching."

A moment later, players from both teams came on stage!

The five IG players were wearing black and white team uniforms and looked very energetic.

The director gave a close-up of five IG members, and the IG fans at the scene were very excited:
"IG! IG! IG!"

"Good! Very energetic!" Zizi suddenly shouted.

On the other side, the five members of KT also appeared.

"KT! KT!"

The KT fans at the scene were like crazy. After all, this is their home court, there are a lot of fans and the atmosphere is very strong.

Meiko muttered: "I feel that KT's aura is also very strong, not inferior to IG, but IG seems to be a little younger, while KT is full of old faces."

Su Mo responded: "These are the remnants of the old era, and IG is the true hero of the new era."

The factory manager joked: "You know what, I have that feeling now. This is the transition from the old to the new."

After both players come on the court, they go to their respective positions and the game enters the BP stage.

In this game, KT is on the blue side and IG is on the red side.

During the hero ban phase, Abu started taking notes frantically.

KTBAN dropped Akali, Ryze and Urgot.

And IGBAN dropped Aatrox, Thresh and Nightmare.

Abu analyzed: "Nightmare is a very strong jungler in this version, and many teams have learned our Nightmare system. This hero is often banned now."
