Chapter 532: One vs. Two Is No Problem

~7 min read 1,238 words

The bottom lane tower dive battle had just ended when astonishing news came from the top lane:

"What's the situation! Xiao Yu Ren isn't level six yet?! How can a level six Xiao Yu Ren lose in a duel to Galio!"

"His ultimate missed, it must have missed! Only if his ultimate missed could Xiao Yu Ren possibly lose to Galio!"

"Wait, then this wave……TSM got wiped out!"

Miller's words hadn't even fallen when TSM's wipe announcement already echoed throughout the venue:

【Aced!!!】

In the LPL livestream room, the dense barrage of comments was like the snow filling the screen of an old TV with no signal:

【Handsome! VG! Handsome!】

【PvE mode, hahahaha】

【Shuijing Ge is awesome!!!】

【Jiao Shen's engage is too cool, spicy spicy spicy spicy!】

【How can Wei hit two people that far apart at the same time? This isn't scientific!】

【Indeed feels a bit problematic, but TSM didn't call a pause】

【Hehe, in this noob‑crushing game they start showing off】

【Huh? They start showing off in a noob‑crushing game? Haven't you watched last year's Worlds? Jiao Shen has saved the world plenty of times at crucial moments!】

【No need to argue with the haters, their brains have already been eaten by dogs】

【Jiao Shen: I said MSI doesn't need research, look, it's simple】

【The plan has changed, get ready to win the championship!】

【Blow, blow hard, tomorrow we'll give G2 and KT a beating and they'll wake up】

In the TSM players' bench, the screens in front of the five were black and white, everyone stared at each other speechless. At this moment Svenskeren suddenly said:

"Should we call a pause?"

"No."

Bjergsen knew what Svenskeren meant, but immediately objected.

Bjergsen then said:

"That's not a bug; I think you should know that skill's mechanism."

Svenskeren's face turned red and he closed his mouth.

"Don't think about all that nonsense; let's just play well for now." Bjergsen said expressionlessly, picking up the mouse to let the revived card walk out of the fountain.

On the big screen, the director cut to a highlight replay of the team fight, then gave a replay of the top lane duel, starting from the scene where Galio rushed from blind vision into the grass to interrupt Xiao Yu Ren's teleport, and played the full process of their duel.

Guan Zeyuan was right: Xiao Yu Ren indeed missed his ultimate, which caused him to lose to Galio, and was finally punched to death in front of the tower by Galio.

"Uh..."

Miller just wanted to laugh after watching the replay,

"Even this point‑blank ultimate can be missed."

Wawa then burst out laughing without restraint:

"Hahaha, this is too easy! Holy Spear Ge didn't even use Flash, a light twist dodged the ultimate! I feel this player with a hard‑to‑read ID has some operational issues!"

"It's a matter of skill timing."

Guan Zeyuan said,

"Actually he should cast it when Galio's basic attack lifts his hand; that way it's harder to dodge, and not after the opponent has already finished their attack, because pro players' move‑attack is basically instinct whether melee or ranged."

"No, I think he just panicked after his teleport was interrupted; otherwise his ultimate wouldn't miss no matter what."

"Yeah, he probably also felt rushed, because the bottom lane was fighting fiercely while he couldn't help due to his teleport being interrupted, which would indeed make him anxious."

"How awful, TSM really got wrecked this wave, they took a huge loss!"

"Mainly because VG played well, Jiao Shen's engage was too deadly—he actually punched two people with one blow, and I still don't get how that happened!"

"I feel…… there's probably nothing wrong; the skill mechanic is just like this, right?"

"Can't figure it out; let's study this more when we get back."

"In short, VG raked it in this wave—Cannon got four kills in seven minutes, tsk tsk, plus the bounty from soloing the first‑tower, this farm… I can't even imagine how fat it will get!"

This game, Gangzi finally experienced the thrill of Ma Ge's slaughter.

What is a damage core?

In team fights you don't need to think—just rush forward and deal crazy damage, collecting heads aplenty, coins clinking into the bag, and team‑fight damage stands out alone!

This, is what a damage core is!

After taking down the tower and clearing a wave, Gangzi finally pressed return to base, satisfied.

As Cannon landed in the fountain, Liang Yan, who had already gone out to the jungle, pressed Tab to glance at Gangzi's equipment; although he had expected it, he was still surprised, and then laughed:

"With this equipment, Cannon can handle a one‑vs‑two without trouble."

Gangzi stared for a moment; he wasn't that confident himself, and he asked half‑believing:

"Really possible?"

"If the execution is flawless, there should be no problem."

"…… How is it done?"

"Just dodge Ezreal's two Qs."

Gangzi thought about it; it's still a bit difficult, but worth a try!

Xiao Duan shouted: "Come on, Panzi Ge! I'm going out to roam!"

Gangzi saw the Titan running straight into the jungle to group up with Liang Yan, and suddenly felt a bit panicked:

"No, you really left me alone in the bottom lane; aren't you afraid I'll feed?"

"Nothing's wrong, Fanzi Ge, believe in yourself!"

I damn well don't even believe myself!

Although that was the case, Gangzi still came to the top lane alone—VG then switched lanes.

Of course, Gangzi wasn't completely fighting alone either—Liang Yan and Xiao Duan were in the upper half area, nearby vision had all been cleared, so Gangzi at least had nothing to worry about behind him.

After clearing our own jungle monsters, Liang Yan started taking Xiao Duan to the enemy jungle to cause trouble—upon seeing the male gun, he would just punch it or hook it away, whether it was useful or not, the momentum was fully there. Meanwhile, Svenskeren, due to the equipment gap and most of the time having no teammates nearby, could only run away on sight; the jungle resources he didn't have time to take naturally ended up in Liang Yan's pocket.

The two cleared TSM's upper half area, then went to the middle lane to cause trouble.

Easyhoon took a head in that tower dive on the bottom lane; his level and equipment were both ahead of the card, and Syndra's burst at this time point was very frightening—Bjergsen's lane was already tough enough, and the VG jungle support still had to come cause trouble, making these days almost unbearable. Almost every time the minion wave went into the tower, they had to respond cautiously, often also having to call the male gun over to help defend together, otherwise they'd have worries about their lives.

Thus, the two TSM mid and jungle players began to drag each other down.

On one side, the middle lane minion wave had to be shared with the jungler, causing the card's level to rise more slowly, and the gap with Syndra kept growing.

On the other side, the male gun had to help defend the middle lane, often unable to clear the jungle in time, causing the jungle monsters to frequently be invaded and taken by the enemy jungle support, so the male gun's development also got worse and worse, and the jungle became even harder to hold.

The two's days became more and more miserable, falling into a vicious cycle.
