LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

When the heroes from both sides entered Summoner's Rift, the cheers from the crowd reached their peak once again.

Miller and Wawa, their voices trembling slightly, announced the official start of the match.

"Alright! Both teams have entered Summoner's Rift! The highly anticipated third game of the LPL Spring Split Finals is officially starting!" Miller shouted excitedly.

"We can see that neither side opted for a level 1 team fight, and both junglers started with red buff," Wawa added. "The top lane matchup of Lucian and Vayne is definitely going to be a clash of titans in the early game!"

Upon entering the game, Su Mo's Vayne learned Q at level one and did not go directly to the lane. Instead, she chose to hold the line of sight in the bushes at the entrance to her own blue buff jungle.

He knew that a champion like Lucian would inevitably push the lane quickly at level one to reach level two first.

If you go online directly, you're likely to get caught out at level two and then get a full combo.

At 1 minute and 45 seconds, the lanes converged.

Su Mo's Vayne finally appeared online, albeit belatedly.

At this moment, Xiaohu's Lucian had already used the AOE of his Q skill to quickly clear the first wave of minions.

"Oh! Mozi's Vayne came online a bit late, and Lucian pushed the first wave of minions a bit too fast, and Lucian is already trying to reach level two first!" Miller's voice was tinged with worry.

Xiaohu's Lucian leveled up to level two the instant the minion wave reached the tower, and immediately learned his E skill.

Without hesitation, he used his E skill [Fervent Pursuit] to slide forward and landed two basic attacks, attempting to lower Vayne's health, before following up with his Q.

Su Mo's Vayne used her Q skill [Evasion Strike] to dodge Lucian's first Q, and then countered with a basic attack, taking away a small portion of Lucian's health.

"Mozi's positioning was amazing! He dodged Lucian's crucial damage with Q and even triggered his passive true damage! This trade... Vayne didn't lose out! Because Lucian also took a lot of damage from the minions, he lost more health than Vayne," Wawa exclaimed excitedly.

However, Lucian is, after all, a long-range ADC, which gives him a natural advantage when laning against short-range ADCs.

Xiaohu's Lucian, taking advantage of his long range, constantly whittled down Vayne's health.

Three minutes later, Su Mo's Vayne's health had dropped to less than half, while Lucian's was still almost two-thirds.

"Vaine's health isn't very good! Xiaohu's Lucian is playing very aggressively!" Miller said. "At this rate, Vayne will be pushed back to base very soon!"

Four minutes later, Su Mo's Vayne reached level four.

He began to change his playing style, no longer retreating all the time, but using the vision provided by the bushes to constantly look for opportunities.

Five minutes later, the first dragon spawned.

RNG's jungler, Wei, had already cleared the upper jungle thanks to Hecarim's fast jungle clearing ability and was heading straight for the lower jungle to secure the dragon.

"RNG is going for the dragon! Wei's Hecarim has already appeared in the river!" Wawa shouted. "On EDG's side, Jiejie's Volibear is also trying to move towards the bottom half of the map, but RNG's bot lane duo is pushing the lane very fast, and they might be beaten by RNG!"

"Jiejie, let this dragon go." Su Mo's voice rang out in the team voice chat, calm and clear, "Don't fight them, come help me kill Lucian."

“But Xiaolong…” Jiejie hesitated.

"It's nothing, just a small dragon. We have a late-game composition," Su Mo said firmly.

"OK!"

Seeing Jiejie come up, Su Mo began to use the movement of his Q skill and the vision in the bushes to constantly look for opportunities to counterattack.

At five and a half minutes, both sides had reached level five. Xiaohu's Lucian, taking advantage of his health, used his E skill [Fervor of Pursuit] to slide forward, attempting to whittle down Vayne's health.

It's now!

The instant Lucian's E skill dash ended, Su Mo used his Q skill to roll forward, dodging Lucian's Q skill again. Then he used two auto attacks, followed by his E skill's crossbow bolt that accurately pinned Lucian to the wall, dealing true damage from his W skill.

"boom!"

A crisp impact! Lucian was stunned!
Immediately, Volibear, who came from the river, flashed and Q'd Lucian, then controlled him, giving him no chance to flash.

As expected, with Volibear intentionally giving up kills, Lucian was quickly killed by Vayne, and Chen Lie leveled up to level six at the same time.

This will be a qualitative change for Vayne.

"First Blood!" Miller spoke at lightning speed. "Mozi's Vayne! Despite facing Lucian's overwhelming pressure, she held on for six minutes, and even lured Lucian into the top lane, cooperating with the jungler to kill Lucian."

Wawa was also excited: "It's worth mentioning Mozi's reaction speed! He dodged Lucian's Q several times with that Q, Xiaohu must have been completely stunned. But RNG took a dragon this time, so it's not a complete loss."

Su Mo's Vayne killed Lucian, pushed a large wave of minions to the tower, and calmly returned to base.

He immediately pulled out a pair of attack speed boots and a vampire staff, greatly increasing his damage and sustain.

In RNG's match booth, Xiaohu looked at his gray screen and sighed.

He was playing very carefully, but Vayne still managed to seize an opportunity.

If Vayne had dodged one less of his Q, she would have been dead long ago.

Unfortunately, Su Mo is just too extraordinary.

"This Vayne... is unreasonable!" Xiaohu said with a wry smile. "He tripped me up in the bushes a few times, and then his E skill was right by the wall... It's so tricky!"

RNG's jungler Wei sighed, "His Vayne's mechanics are too extreme. But even though you died ten times, we still got the dragon, so overall we still came out ahead. It just means you might not be able to pressure him as much in lane later."

"It's okay, I'll write carefully," Xiao Hu replied.

Next, the top lane matchup became one-sided, with Vayne putting pressure on Lucian. However, Xiaohu, being experienced, stayed under the tower and refused to come out, preferring not to farm minions rather than give Su Mo a chance to solo kill. This left Su Mo helpless, as he could only suppress Lucian's CS.

The Rift Herald spawns ten minutes into the game.

EDG's jungler Jiejie, thanks to Volibear's fast jungle clearing ability, has already reached the Rift Herald's lair.

"EDG is about to take the Rift Herald!" Miller shouted. "RNG's Hecarim is still farming in the bottom half of the jungle. Can they get here in time?"

RNG's jungler Wei, seeing that EDG had secured the Rift Herald, decisively abandoned the jungle monsters in the bottom half of the map and headed straight for the Rift Herald.

However, it was too late.

After clearing the minion wave in the top lane, Su Mo's Vayne also arrived at the Rift Herald's lair.

He teamed up with Jiejie's Volibear and easily secured the Rift Herald.

After securing the Rift Herald, the EDG players didn't rush to release it, choosing instead to preserve it as a tool for pushing forward. Su Mo's Vayne, after pushing the minion wave in the top lane, opted to rotate to the mid lane.

He coordinated with Volibear and Scout's Orianna to begin putting pressure on RNG's mid-lane turret.

"EDG is starting to push mid! Vayne is moving to mid, RNG's mid tower is in grave danger!" Wawa shouted. "But on RNG's side, Hecarim and Rey are both in mid, can they hold on?"

RNG's jungler Wei and support Ming quickly rushed to the mid lane to try to defend.

However, Orianna's wave clear ability was still too strong, and with the Rift Herald and Vayne's tower pushing speed, RNG's mid-lane tower was quickly destroyed.

EDG successfully destroyed RNG's mid-lane tower, and then Su Mo returned to the top lane to farm.

Orianna and Volibear immediately headed to the bottom lane, joining forces with Viper's Kai'Sa and Meiko's Nautilus to form a four-man team.

"EDG's pace is so fast! They pushed through the mid lane and immediately rotated to the bottom lane. They're going to make a move on RNG's bottom lane!" Miller's speech quickened instantly. "Gala and Ming are in a dangerous position. They're being pushed under their tower by the minion wave, and four EDG players have already surrounded them!"

In RNG's team voice chat, an alarm instantly went off.

"The four of them are coming down! There's no escape!" Ming, the bottom lane support, said urgently.

At the same time, RNG's top, mid, and jungle players made the fastest and most ruthless decisions.

"Forget about bot lane! They're going to die!" jungler Wei roared in the voice chat. "Let's gank top! Kill Vayne! Trading two lives in bot lane for Mo's kill is a win-win situation!"

"Received!" Xiaohu and Cryin said in unison.

In an instant, the flames of war in Summoner's Rift were ignited simultaneously at both ends of the map!
In the commentary booth, Wawa's voice trembled slightly: "RNG has made a choice! They abandoned the bot lane and opted for a three-man gank in the top, mid, and jungle to kill Mo who was pushing the top lane! Meanwhile, EDG also launched a tower dive against RNG's bot lane duo! This is an earth-shattering lane swap! Who will be the final winner?!"

In the bottom lane battle, EDG's four-man gank, like a tightening fishing net, left RNG's bottom lane duo with nowhere to escape.

Meiko's Titan led the way, using Flash + Q to force Xayah to use Flash, and then without hesitation used his ultimate [Deep Sea Impact] to lock onto Xayah under the tower.

Xayah was forced to use her ultimate (R) to avoid the attack, but as soon as the R ended, Volibear used his ultimate to fly over to the tower.

"Boom!" Jiejie's bear activated its ultimate skill [Heavenly Tremor], and its huge body fell from the sky, directly paralyzing the turret for a short time!
Scout's Clockwork Spirit, with a precise command: Protect the charging bear, then press the R key!
[Command: Shockwave!]
A perfect pull drew Xia, who had just landed, and Riel, who was trying to protect her, both to the bear's side!
Viper's Kai'Sa activated her E skill for a speed boost, dashing to the flank of the battlefield like a ghost to deal damage, instantly killing Xayah and leaving Riel with very low health!

Rui'er was left to struggle, but the damage from the four EDG players was like a tidal wave, instantly overwhelming him.

Double Kill!

Viper's Kai'Sa secured a double kill!

EDG's bot lane tower dive was fluid, clean, and decisive!

As the battle in the bottom lane ended, the battle in the top lane also began.

Just as EDG's bot lane was reporting good news, Su Mo in the top lane was also in dire straits!

He had just pushed the minion wave across the river when, in the fog of war, three RNG figures pounced on him like hungry wolves!

The first to be hit was Wei's Centaur, who had activated his E skill. His movement speed was as fast as a green lightning bolt, and he rushed directly behind Su Mo to block his retreat.

On the flank, Cryin's Syndra has already placed a Q skill, ready to unleash a deadly stun with her E skill at any moment!

Ahead, Xiaohu's Lucian activates his ultimate ability, "The Divine Lance," to deal damage.

Surrounded on three sides, with no way to go up to heaven or down to earth!

"Mo is in danger!" Miller's heart leaped into his throat. "RNG's three-man gank was too deadly! Hecarim's charge, Syndra's crowd control, Lucian's burst damage! Vayne has almost no chance of survival!"

Faced with this certain death, Su Mo's eyes remained frighteningly calm.

His brain completed countless calculations in a fraction of a second; all the operations were completed in the blink of an eye!
Just as the centaur was about to kick him, Su Mo pressed his Q skill [Dodge Assault] and rolled into the grass with a tiny, quick step.

It was this positioning and vision control that allowed him to narrowly avoid Hecarim's fatal kick, causing Hecarim's E skill to expire, and also allowing him to dodge Lucian's R.

Immediately afterwards, Cryin's Syndra moved!

W throws the ball over, and then E is used. The dark orb is like a deadly cannonball, whistling as it hurtles towards Vayne!

"I'm going to faint!" The hearts of all the audience members were in their throats.

However, just as the orb was about to hit Vayne, a golden light flashed!
flash!

Su Mo almost anticipated Syndra's E activation timing, and with a flash to the side, he dodged the life-or-death stun by a fraction of a second!

"He dodged it again!" Wawa stood up from his seat. "An unbelievable reaction! Two consecutive dashes, dodging RNG's two most crucial crowd control skills!"

RNG's three members clearly didn't expect Vayne to be so slippery!
But they were already in a bloodthirsty frenzy, and their offensive showed no signs of stopping!

After Wei's charge was dodged, he immediately activated his ultimate skill, Shadow Strike, and a shadow of fear instantly enveloped the area!

"Roar--!"

However, just before the fear effect took effect, Su Mo pressed the R key!
The final moment!

Vayne's figure vanished from the spot in an instant!

He activated his ultimate ability, using the invisibility granted by his Q skill to enter his own hunting moment!

Su Mo's target was very clear—Syndra, who had no mobility skills and had used up her key crowd control abilities!
He used invisibility to silently circle around to Syndra's side.

Appear! Basic attack! Basic attack!

Q skill roll, enter stealth again, and adjust position!
Appear, basic attack!
Cryin's Syndra panicked and frantically cast her Q skill at her feet, but Su Mo, like a top dancer, precisely avoided the damage with every move.

Xiaohu's Lucian and Wei's team desperately wanted to provide support, but Su Mo used his invisibility to constantly reposition himself, making it impossible for them to lock onto the target immediately!

Third appearance, basic attack!

The third ring of the Holy Silver Crossbow always unleashes devastating true damage!
Cryin's Syndra only managed to cast one ultimate ability before letting out a scream and collapsing to the ground!
However, after killing Syndra, Su Mo's health was already almost depleted.

Xiaohu's Lucian used his E skill to slide forward, trying to finish off the low-health Vayne.

But Su Mo rolled over as if he wanted to run away, which caused the people behind him to flash over and kill him with an AQA combo.

In the end, Su Mo's head also fell into the hands of the men. (End of this chapter)
