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

The director's camera instantly switched from the mid lane, and in the very center of the screen, Faker's Cassiopeia was gracefully recalling to base, stepping over Viktor's corpse.

In the commentary booth, CT jumped up from his chair, his signature roar echoing throughout the arena:

"Wow!!! Mid lane! What happened in mid lane?! Faker! It's Faker! He solo-killed Crown without any jungle help!!"

Another commentator, Kim Dong-jun, excitedly slammed his fist on the table: "Is this revenge for the S6 finals? Just a few minutes into the game, the Demon King announced his return to the world! Let's watch the replay! Director, show us the replay! How did he do that?"

On the big screen, time rewinds to ten seconds ago.

In the video, Crown's Viktor, relying on his shield, positioned himself slightly forward, attempting to use his E skill, Death Ray, to whittle down Cassiopeia's health. This was a perfectly normal trade of blows.

However, the moment Viktor raised his hand, Faker moved.

"Look here! Look at Faker's positioning!" Kim Dong-jun spoke rapidly, "He didn't retreat, but instead took a small step towards the beam, dodging the core area of ​​the beam's damage hitbox!"

Immediately afterwards, the snake woman on the screen suddenly attacked!

Without any warning, Faker used Flash!

R Flash!

Cassiopeia's ultimate ability, Petrifying Gaze, accompanied by a golden flash, instantly pressed against Viktor's face!

Crown reacted quickly, his finger almost instinctively pressing Flash, but he never expected Faker to play so aggressively and decisively. He didn't even have time to turn around before being frozen in place by that terrifying petrifying beam!

"Petrified! A perfect R-flash! Crown didn't even have a chance to turn around!" CT roared.

The petrified Victor was like a fragile statue.

Faker's hand speed is astonishing. His Q [Plague Explosion] explodes precisely at Viktor's feet, applying the poison effect, followed immediately by his E [Twin Fangs], which fires like a machine gun!

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Each venomous fang precisely took away a significant portion of Viktor's health.

The moment Crown was unfrozen, he panicked and used Flash to try to escape back to the tower, while simultaneously throwing out his W [Gravity Field] to try and stop him.

But Faker seemed to have known everything all along.

He controlled Cassiopeia, using the burst movement speed bonus from her Q skill, and like a real venomous snake, he slid along the edge of the gravity field with an extremely strange S-shaped movement. At the same time, he used his E skill to predict the location of Viktor's Flash landing point.

"Die!"

With the final dull thud of a fang piercing flesh, Victor screamed and collapsed to the ground.

Solo Kill!

"Incredible!" Kim Dong-jun exclaimed, clutching his head. "That's Faker! That's a god! He seized that moment of Crown's lapse in concentration and executed a flawless kill! Crown didn't even have time to unleash his ultimate!"

The camera focused on Faker in the players' bench.

The legendary mid-laner remained expressionless, merely adjusting his round-framed glasses, as if he had just accomplished not a stunning solo kill, but simply swatted a mosquito.

"SKT's momentum is building!" CT exclaimed. "Mid lane solo kill, bot lane domination, SSG is in trouble this game!"

However, just as the audience was cheering for Faker's solo kill, the director noticed something and abruptly switched the camera to the bottom lane.

There, an even more deadly net has been cast.

"Wait! Don't celebrate yet! Look at the bottom lane!" CT's voice suddenly became tense. "The minion wave is pushing into the tower! Ruler... Ruler wants to take that siege minion!!"

The instant Ruler raised his hand, before the priceless Ferrari could even fall, the Grim Reaper's scythe had already swung down.

"Now!"

Peanut's Spider Queen emerged from the shadows, her E skill [Cocoon] striking like a white lightning bolt, precisely predicting Varus's auto-attack recovery animation.

Ruler's pupils constricted sharply; it was too late to move.

"Snapped!"

They've got them tied up right there!

"Grow bigger!" Wolf roared, and Lulu flashed into the tower, casting her E skill shield on herself and withstanding the first laser from the tower. At the same time, she used her W skill [Whimsical Idea] to turn Tahm Kench, who was trying to swallow Varus's protection, into a harmless little animal.

The control chain is perfectly connected!

Xiao Yan's policewoman had already set up her sniper rifle, placed the W trap at Varus's feet, and used Q [Peacekeeper] to pierce through, followed by a headshot auto-attack.

Ruler's health bar instantly emptied.

"Damn it!" Ruler stared at the black and white screen in despair; he hadn't managed to finish off that siege vehicle before it died.

SKT T1's Xiao Yan has killed SSG Ruler!

"Nice!" Peanut exclaimed excitedly.

At this point, the turret's damage was increasing, and Wolf's Lulu's health was also in grave danger.

"Retreat! Retreat! We can't kill Tam!" Xiao Yan calmly commanded.

Although CoreJJ's Tahm Kench was badly damaged, he managed to escape back to the second tower's self-isolated bush with a sliver of health thanks to the gray shield from his E skill, Thick Skin, and managed to save his life.

But that's enough.

Kill people, take tower plates, control the lane.

Xiao Yan executed this entire process flawlessly.

Peanut then secured the first Earth Dragon. For a tower-pushing AD carry like Caitlyn, the Earth Dragon's buff is a tremendous boost.

For the next few minutes, the game entered a brief period of calm and development.

Upon returning home, Xiao Yan immediately pulled out the Storm Sword and attack speed boots, his equipment being outrageously luxurious. Back in his lane, he continued his relentless pressure, completely dominating the SSG bot lane duo under their tower.

However, beneath the calm surface, undercurrents are surging.

Mid-game, SSG's mid and jungle players suddenly disappeared from the map.

"Mid lane is gone." Faker's voice came through the voice chat, tinged with alarm. "Even the excavator hasn't shown up, watch out for the bot lane."

Faker has a keen sense of smell, but SSG moves even faster.

At this moment, Xiao Yan and Wolf were indeed positioned a bit too far forward in order to whittle down the last bit of health of the bottom lane tower.

The moment Faker finished speaking, SSG launched their counterattack.

"Keep them here!" Ambition roared in the voice chat.

Ruler's Varus suddenly launched an attack, hurling his ultimate, Chains of Corruption, directly at Caitlyn! At the same time, CoreJJ's Tahm Kench activated his ultimate, Abyssal Dive, bringing Crown's Viktor with him to cut off Xiao Yan's escape route!

There are wolves in front and tigers behind.

Four packs of two!

"Oh no! SKT's bot lane pushed way too far! SSG's all-or-nothing 4v2 gank!" commentator CT exclaimed. "If they get caught and killed this time, Caitlyn's early game advantage will be completely wiped out!"

At this moment, excavators also dug tunnels out of the riverbed, blocking all escape routes.

A desperate situation.

If it were an ordinary newbie, they would probably panic and waste their skills in the face of such a situation, waiting to die.

But Xiao Yan's gaze became more focused than ever before at this moment.
