Chapter 287: Don't you have your own jungle?
The audience's cheers were deafening.
Xiao Huasheng had just run down from high ground when he saw Smeb taken down by two shots from the male gunner; he was utterly stunned, the enemy had obviously practiced this specially, they played it with terrifying fluency.
I feel like I've learned something again!
Xiao Huasheng had just learned a new move, but when he saw the male gunner pull his gun and slip through the gap in front of the second tower into his jungle, he couldn't feel happy at all.
The Stone Armor Beetle had been cleared, and the second group of Red Buff was about to respawn.
On mid lane, Syndra had already returned to lane, while Twisted Fate had just come back from bot lane to mid; his health was okay but he was low on mana, and Kuro hadn't recalled in two or three minutes.
The Stone Armor Beetle and Red Buff were surely lost; Xiao Huasheng could only make a wide detour, planning to eat his own F4 before the male gunner cleared it.
As soon as he entered the F4 brush, the male gunner appeared from the Red Buff camp direction, placed a ward to reveal him, and then threw a smoke bomb at him.
"Jiao Shen is playing incredibly aggressively! He predicted Peanut would loop around to take F4, and after clearing the Stone Armor Beetle he came straight over! He's treating ROX's jungle as his own backyard!"
"Wow, these are clearly Peanut's jungle monsters! Yet he's coming over to invade our jungle, not letting us touch them at all—this guy is too domineering!"
"But we really can't beat him! This male gunner is too tanky! And his positioning is superb—Nidalee's spears can't hit him at all!"
Xiao Huasheng turned and leapt away with a fierce pounce, then threw a spear while simultaneously placing a ward, but since he had no true sight, his jungle knife gave a red blade, unable to swap the trinket for a scanner, so he could do nothing about the already invisible ward in the brush.
As expected, the spear missed, and the enemy certainly saw the ward placed in the brush, but with lane advantage plus mid lane advantage, the male gunner felt no hesitation.
Liang Yan simply began clearing F4 right in front of Xiao Huasheng.
Xiao Huasheng couldn't swallow this anger; he lingered nearby for a few seconds, then threw another spear, trying to snag a big bird.
But before the spear arrived, Liang Yan's final wall‑bounce Q cleared a whole pack of F4, then he quickly drew his gun and flew past the spear's front, walked along the wall opposite the Red Buff camp, reached the end, turned into the brush, took two more steps, and indeed saw Xiao Huasheng's Nidalee again.
Unfortunately Xiao Huasheng had no face‑checking of the brush; after cautiously approaching he tossed a control ward, revealing the male gunner hiding in the brush.
Seeing the situation, Liang Yan knew there was no chance, so he stopped arguing with Xiao Huasheng, turned and began clearing the Red Buff, pulling it toward the F4 direction as he cleared.
Xiao Huasheng certainly had Smite.
Liang Yan deliberately dragged the Red Buff into the F4 brush ward's vision to give Xiao Huasheng a chance to clash Smite.
However Xiao Huasheng wasn't hot‑headed; seeing Syndra disappear from mid lane, he knew he couldn't stay any longer and painfully left the upper half of the map.
Liang Yan had no intention of letting him go; after smiting the Red Buff, he quickly drew his gun, burst through the F4 camp wall, took a shortcut past ROX's middle turret, and with a finishing shot hit a wave of minions just arrived at the turret, killing three ranged minions, then kept running straight toward ROX's lower half.
Following behind, Perkz's Syndra fired a Q that, combined with Weakness, cleared three melee minions, and likewise kept moving nonstop, following the male gunner downward.
Kuro watched a bandit‑like male and female pass in front of the turret, dared do nothing, shivering and shrinking behind the turret to clear the lane.
"No way, they're coming again?!"
"This is going too far!"
"They really treat ROX's jungle as their own home!"
Xiao Huasheng had just finished a camp of three wolves when he saw the male gunner emerge from the Blue Buff camp direction—everyone went numb.
Damn it!
You don't have your own jungle?!
His gaze swept the whole map—mid lane was hopeless; Twisted Fate, lacking mana, could only pick blue cards each time, just to stock a blue for a universal card to clear the lane.
Xiao Huasheng could only pin his hopes on the bot lane, spamming ping signals, hoping the duo would help defend this Blue Buff fight.
But the bot lane's previous wave had already ended; the wave state was basically balanced. When ROX's duo hurriedly cleared lane and rushed to the jungle, G2's duo likewise finished clearing lane and came over from the river.
"Twisted Fate has just moved; this 3v4 ROX still numbers disadvantaged, the three of them hesitate and dare not get too close, Peanut from afar lands a spear to wake the Blue Buff, first dragging the monsters away, trying to wait for Twisted Fate's support to land!"
"But Jiao Shen rushes in with a shot that pulls the Blue Buff away, then another AEA—Blue Buff already below half health—another Smite, Nidalee leaps up trying to clash Smite, but the Blue Buff is snatched by Syndra's W, slammed into her Q, then pushed again!!"
"Heavens! Perkz's play is too slick!!"
"The Blue Buff lands in Syndra's pocket and simultaneously knocks back Nidalee! Jiao Shen ults with a mega explosion, Syndra and flash energy cascade onto Peanut! Twisted Fate flashes over the wall with a yellow card to stun Syndra, but it's too late—Peanut already down!"
"Fan Mom rushes in to shield Twisted Fate and throws an RQ! But protecting Twisted Fate is useless—he has no blue, his output relies solely on basic attacks, providing hardly any damage!"
"Fortunately PraY's Ezreal developed well; after his ultimate grazed, his WQ knocked Syndra down to low health, and Syndra, using her dash, retreated and ate a heal from Miss Fortune!"
"PraY, eager for a kill, blinked in with Arcane Shift, only to leap straight into Janna's ultimate, also taking a weak basic attack that didn't kill Syndra but instead frightened him into flashing out, performing a trick with Zilean, yet he was still flung aside by the edge!"
"Vengeful Maokai's vines flung three people!!"
"Miss Fortune's Dancing Grenade hopped over the three heads! Gorilla had just taken the mega explosion damage, then took this hop, left with low health, and was finally taken down by Miss Fortune's gunshot!"
"Kuro activated Swiftness but was rooted by Grasping Roots, quickly collapsing under focus fire!"
"PraY desperately ran toward the second turret, only to be stopped by Miss Fortune's perfect execution sniper shot to the leg!"
"Janna, through the wall, Q'd and launched two plants that sprayed wildly!"
"The male gunner rushed in! Two shots took the heads!!"
In the LPL broadcast room, Guan Zeyuan's passionate commentary flooded the screen with bullet comments.
The on‑site commentators also went mad, standing up, faces flushed, shouting loudly.
The audience's gasps mixed with cheers came in wave after wave, endless like a tide.
On the LPL commentary desk, Wawa slammed the table wildly:
"Blown up! ROX suffered a zero‑for‑four exchange! Straight blown apart!!!"
Miller pushed up his glasses with a solemn expression:
"It's over—this match has completely lost suspense; given G2's mid‑jungle state, I doubt ROX can even last thirty minutes!"
Wawa, overexcited:
"I can't hold up, I really can't hold up! This male gunner and Syndra are too fierce!"
