Chapter 579

The worries of KT's supporters quickly became reality as VG went home to resupply, starting their push with an economic advantage of nearly seven thousand.

KT dared not engage in team fights, suffering successive retreats.

At 23 minutes, they destroyed the middle second tower.

At 24 minutes, they destroyed the bottom second tower.

After taking down the bottom second tower, VG continued to push. The huge economic gap, combined with two key positions lacking flash, made KT unwilling to hold firm; the Prince planted his flag beside the high ground, KT immediately fell back, and VG's two backliners, under Bu Long's protection, surged forward and quickly demolished KT's bottom lane high ground tower.

With the high ground tower gone, the crystal, naturally vulnerable as lips without teeth, could not escape and was soon destroyed by VG.

After destroying KT's bottom lane, the VG members retreated like a tide, went home to finish their equipment, and then headed straight for the Dragon Pit.

Everyone could see that VG intended to seize the last minute or so before KT's four members' flash abilities came off cooldown to decide the final outcome.

With an economic gap of nearly ten thousand, the mid, bottom, and jungle players each have a major item lead over their direct opponents; at twenty-five minutes, Big Mouth has three and a half items, bolstered by the Fan Mother's incense burner, and is fully built.

KT naturally knows as well that VG's play for Dragon this round is a clear-cut tactic; if they don't engage, letting VG take Dragon will absolutely be fatal.

"VG is starting on Dragon!"

"KT has to engage in this teamfight, whether they want to or not!"

Smeb unleashed his ultimate, confirmed there were no VG ambushes on either side of mid lane, then dared to push the minion wave with his teammates; the five arrived near the base of the middle first tower, and Deft fired an Eagle Strike up the river, revealing the VG five who had just started on Dragon.

KT's members grouped together and entered the river, approaching cautiously.

The four members' flash abilities were still on cooldown; they knew they had to spread out their positioning so the Prince's ultimate wouldn't catch too many. However, given that challenging Smite was hopeless and to stop VG's backline from taking Dragon they had to get close, KT actually had few options.

Because the river is only that wide.

"KT came over, with the tankiest Thresh up front, placing a ward behind the wall into the Dragon Pit, only daring to inch closer after seeing the Prince focused on Dragon in the back......"

The Control Ward had only five health and was quickly cleared by VG.

KT began to panic again.

Mata came up and placed another Control Ward, but was hit by Galio's Warband's Gust and Big Mouth's high-speed cannon; then Big Mouth chased him, landing a few hits and taking away nearly half his health bar.

Mata, however, breathed a sigh of relief.

——He had used up the two Control Wards he brought, while VG had a Control Ward placed in the Dragon Pit; inserting a ward there would be blocked, so Mata had no options left.

"Half a health bar vanished in an instant! Big Mouth's poke hurts too much!"

"Although Thresh is tanky, he's ultimately just a support......"

Sima Laozei saw Thresh activate his shield and retreat, didn't pursue, turned back to help teammates clear the Control Ward, and continued dealing damage to Dragon.

The Dragon Pit fell into darkness once again.

Mata had no Control Ward, Ashe's E was still on cooldown, and Score, who still hadn't assembled his two-item set, could only grit his teeth and approach; Mata trailed right behind his heels, ready to devour him at any moment, while the three backliners followed at a moderate distance to provide protection.

"Dragon still has a little over half a health bar; does KT still want to ward? But what good would looking do? Never mind whether they can out-Smite, Score probably can't even get in!"

"Let's teamfight......"

"We can't win! VG has the Fan Mother, who doesn't lose stance while taking Dragon! The Prince tanks Dragon for nearly ten seconds without losing much health!"

"But there's really nothing we can do......"

Indeed there's no way; in fact, KT staying here is pointless, because the two fragile backliners, lacking flash, dare not get too close, and relying solely on the crippled development of the fox's poke damage cannot pose any threat to VG.

Contesting Smite is doomed to fail.

Teamfighting, and they don't even know how to do it.

Thus only agony and torment remain.

Score finally approached the wall, feeling in his pocket for a Control Ward.

Liang Yan had stopped attacking Dragon, just planting his spear and standing by the wall, waiting.

Just as Score inserted the ward, through the vision provided by Fu Lan Duo stationed at the Dragon Pit's mouth, Liang Yan finally saw the KT backline at the edge of the vision......

Clang!

A flag came crashing down from the sky, and the Prince thrust his spear forward!

"Jiao Shen engaged! His EQ combo unleashed his ultimate, directly covering and trapping Pawn and Deft in the backline!"

"Mata reacted quickly, moving in and gulping down Ashe through the wall! Pawn then used his own ultimate to fly out!"

"Score was moving forward, trying to sacrifice himself to buy time!"

"But a Rek'Sai who hasn't even completed a full resistance item after twenty-plus minutes is incredibly fragile! Moreover, without flash he can't even hit anyone!"

"Two seconds! Score melted instantly under the focused fire of VG's two backliners!"

"And the Prince, with no defensive items at all and only semi-tanky output gear, could endure incredibly well under Galio's ultimate damage reduction; KT's three backliners' combined volley only managed to knock off the shield Karma gave him and the one he activated himself!"

"The AD Card's output is too frantic!"

"It feels unwinnable! A semi-tanky, semi-damage warrior can tank better than your actual tank! How on earth is KT supposed to win this teamfight!?"

"Galio came crashing down! Thresh was flung into the air! Deft had just emerged from Thresh's belly when a fully charged Galio's Durand Shield already pressed against his face!"

「Hu li card skills have been used up! Jiao Shen carried the Hu li card and walked up with a harmless basic attack! He also had no skills, but Black Cleaver plus Warrior's Sword together gave nearly a hundred attack power! Also the flag adds attack speed! Basic attacks smash people and hurt a lot! 」

「Moreover, teammates after dealing with Rek'Sai also rushed up! 」

「Jiao Shen's output was detailed; on Tahm Kench's body each hit triggered a passive! Then another basic attack first took Mata's head! 」

「Deft escaped taunt, already low health! A point-blank arrow stunned the prince who wanted to run but was killed by a single shot from Big Mouth's ult! 」

「Pawn's Hu li kept hopping sideways nearby but the damage was just a scratch! Seeing no way out, he turned to run but was struck by Bu Long's Winter's Bite, breaking his leg! 」

「Smeb's yellow card stunned Malphite and he was still throwing poker! He was still trying to output but the damage was really low to the point of being infuriating! 」

「Smeb estimates he won't want to play cards again in this lifetime! 」

The venue roared with cheers, amidst the audience's unified shouts, the prince whose skills had cooled off used EQ to stab forward and launch Pawn into the air.

On the other side, Malphite also caught up with the fleeing Smeb who had split off.

「Team wipe!!! 」

「KT no one survived!!! 」

One wave not possible! But VG can turn back and kill the big dragon!

No! I feel we can do one wave! Xia Lu super minion has already pushed to the high ground!

Tower taken! Sheng Qiang Ge took the tower!!

My goodness! We really don't have to do one wave, do we?

Even the fastest reviving Tam takes nearly half a minute to revive! There's a chance!

One wave coming!!
