LPL didn't want me? I joined SKT instead!

As the voice command "All troops, attack!" sounded, the minion waves slowly converged.

In the bottom lane, the director's camera immediately locked onto the figure wielding two axes.

"bite--"

Catching the first axe, Xiao Yan controlled Draven, a faint golden light emanating from his body. That was a sign that the passive skill "Draven's Alliance" was beginning to stack.

Deft truly lives up to his reputation as a top-tier AD carry; even facing Draven, he showed no fear whatsoever. Utilizing Varus's range advantage, he unleashed his E skill, "Rain of Evil Arrows," while Xiao Yan was last-hitting minions, attempting to slow Draven and whittle down his health.

However, just as the rain of arrows fell, Xiao Yan activated his W skill, "Bloodthirsty Dash," which greatly increased his movement speed. With an extremely slight right-angle movement, he managed to glide past the edge of the rain of arrows without sustaining any damage!

"Such precise movement!" exclaimed the CT in the commentary booth. "Xiao Yan is incredibly confident. He didn't even retreat; instead, he moved laterally to avoid damage while simultaneously pushing forward!"

At level one, momentum reigns supreme.

Xiao Yan caught the axe and swung it backhand, slashing at Mata, who was trying to use the Relic Shield to finish off minions.

"collapse!"

Even the tough-skinned Tahm Kench visibly lost a health bar after that one strike. Draven's early-game damage is simply outrageous.

Mata frowned and had no choice but to retreat, surrendering control of the minion wave.

Successfully secured a second win.

Xiao Yan and Wolf both leveled up to level two almost simultaneously.

"Wolf, press down," Xiao Yan said briefly in the voice chat.

Wolf understood immediately, and Thresh began to spin his hook, forcing Deft and Mata to reposition themselves.

Although Deft was being pressured under the tower, he didn't miss any last hits. He knew very well that as long as he survived the first few levels and Tahm Kench leveled up and had the Devour Protection buff, Draven's aggressiveness would be greatly reduced.

However, Xiao Yan did not intend to give him the chance to "endure".

The game lasted 3 minutes and 20 seconds.

Peanut's Lee Sin finished clearing the bottom side river crab and sent a "on the way" signal to the bot lane.

"No need to catch him, just help me scout the prince," Xiao Yan calmly commanded. "We can kill him this time."

Before he finished speaking, Wolf moved.

Instead of using the hook, he used the Hexflash cast animation to bait out Mata's Q skill "Tongue Lash," then dodged it with a reverse movement, and immediately flashed E (Doom Pendulum)!

"brush!"

This E skill, at its maximum range, brought Deft back from a slightly forward position!

"Damn it!" Deft cursed under his breath, reacting quickly by casting a healing spell to accelerate his retreat.

Mata's reaction was godlike; he opened his mouth almost the instant Wolf flashed, using his W "Devour" to swallow Deft whole and protect him. If Tahm Kench could eat Deft, the attack would be neutralized.

At this critical moment.

Xiao Yan made a move.

His two axes were already spinning at full speed, his W skill refreshed, and he charged forward like a cheetah. But instead of immediately using a basic attack, he preemptively unleashed his E skill – "Pathfinder Axe"!

Two giant axes carved a deep trench in the ground; their target wasn't Deft, but Mata!

"Bang!"

Just 0.1 seconds before Mata was about to swallow Deft, the Axe of the Fallen slammed into Tahm Kench, knocking him back a short distance to the side!

interrupt!

Mata's W skill failed to swallow because the distance was forcibly increased!

"My God! What kind of reaction is this?!" Roaring Emperor roared, "Xiao Yan interrupted Mata's Devour with his E skill! Deft is unprotected!"

Without Tahm Kench's protection, Varus, slowed down by Thresh, was easy prey for Draven.

Xiao Yan sneered as the spinning axe in his hand rained down like a storm.

One cut! Two cuts!

Each cut was accompanied by a sickening screech of flesh being pierced, and Varus's health bar vanished like water.

Deft desperately used Flash to try to enter the tower, but Xiao Yan followed without hesitation, and with his last spinning axe, imbued with the passive bounty, accurately struck Varus in the back.

"First Blood!"

A blood is born!

Draven's passive bounty has arrived, and the sound of the coins bouncing is crisp and pleasant.

"Nice!" Wolf shouted, casually tossing a lantern to Xiao Yan, who was tanking the tower, pulling him out of the tower's attack range.

Meanwhile, in the middle lane.

Faker's Syndra displayed absolute dominance. Pawn's Ryze, though also a spell machine gun, had a very difficult time against Faker's precise distance control.

"Good play in the bot lane." Faker glanced at the kill in the bot lane, but his hands didn't stop moving.

He seized the moment when Pawn was distracted while switching screens to look at the bottom lane, and used the QE combo to precisely push the ball, stunning Ryze in front of the tower. Then he used W to grab the orb and slam it down, followed by a Thunderlord's Decree command.

Pawn lost half her health and had to use her only health potion, completely losing her early-game roaming ability.

Regarding the road conditions.

Huni's Rumble was relentless. Facing Smeb's Shen, Huni fully utilized Rumble's wave-pushing advantage, constantly pushing the minion wave under KT's tower.

The scorching flames were making Smeb suffer terribly, and he was behind in last hits by nearly 15.

"Smeb, I can't go top lane, Rumble is too popular." Score's Jarvan IV circled around the jungle and found that there were no good opportunities in any of the three lanes.

The bottom lane just died, the mid lane is being pressured, and the top lane is being pushed.

SKT's three lines of attack were all on fire, demonstrating a suffocating dominance.

"Hold on, wait until level six," Mata said in a deep voice over the voice chat. "The first one is a fire dragon, we can't let it go easily."

The time has reached 9 minutes.

The fire dragon has respawned.

Neither side can afford to give up on such a top-tier dragon that increases percentage attack power and spell power.

After KT respawned and replenished their supplies, they began to gather at the Dragon pit. Score's Jarvan IV cleared SKT's vision in the river, and Smeb's Shen went back to base to buy Tiamat, ready to use his ultimate to provide support at any time.

On the SKT side, Xiao Yan went home and immediately pulled out the Storm Greatsword and the Vampire Scepter, his equipment was frighteningly luxurious.

"We have to take this dragon fight." Xiao Yan marked the dragon pit. "I have two skills, the damage will be explosive."

"Huni, do you have a T?" KkOma watched the screen backstage. Although he couldn't hear it, he knew that communication within the team was crucial at this moment.

"I have a T, I can come anytime," Huni replied.

The two sides, consisting of ten people, began pulling and tugging near the river.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

Mata's Tahm Kench was at the forefront, using his high health to scout the bushes. Deft's Varus was behind, charging up his Q skill, trying to whittle down SKT's health.

Peanut's Lee Sin lingered above the Dragon Pit, looking for an opportunity to cut in and kick back the carry.

Faker's Syndra held a stack of Dark Orbs in her hand, her eyes coldly fixed on Ryze's position.

Xiao Yan, controlling Draven, spun his twin axes and stood on the flank of the team, like a patient hunter waiting for his prey to make a mistake.

"The prince is considering taking action!" Wolf suddenly warned.

Score's Prince used his EQ combo, and although he didn't knock anyone up, he used his ultimate "Cataclysm" to cover Faker, who didn't have Flash!

"The team fight has started! KT has engaged on Faker!" the commentator shouted.

Smeb's Shen almost simultaneously cast his ultimate ability, "Mystic Art: Merciful Soul Fall," on Jarvan IV, and a thick shield lit up.

A great war is about to break out!
