Chapter 861

Gemstone took a sip and directly ulted, but Little Cannon ultimately still died.

The result of the teamfight was CNB trading two for one.

Both sides' top laners died, and CNB lost one more Little Cannon.

"Ah!"

Wawa sighed heavily, feeling regret for CNB, and at the same time sensed that CNB was already hopeless.

Miller also had a solemn expression: "After all, we're just wild-card players; our mechanics indeed have a noticeable gap compared to the top players of the major leagues."

Su Xiao Yan shook her head: "Indeed, CNB's response this wave was actually very good; one could even say that, given their vision and economic disadvantages, their response to TSM's forceful Big Dragon attempt was completely fine……"

"But unfortunately, in the end they were still forcibly taken down by TSM's superior mechanics."

"That's right; this teamfight was won entirely thanks to Bjergsen's Enchantress using better mechanics to forcefully eat them up; otherwise, both sides would likely have traded one for one, and Little Cannon wouldn't have died."

After killing two CNB members, the four TSM players turned back to continue attacking the Big Dragon.

Although the Treant died, the others were in great shape, and with the dual marksmen plus Incense Burner Lulu, although they lacked a frontline to tank, their damage output was strong.

The three surviving CNB members were all somewhat wounded; even the Wine Barrel in the best condition had only about two-thirds of its health left.

Meanwhile, TSM's four long-range champions: Lulu can polymorph, the Wine Barrel lacks a dash, so if they walk up they'll be polymorphed and quickly melted, unable to re-engage, meaning they cannot initiate a teamfight.

But if they just let this Big Dragon go, CNB would essentially lose this game.

Thus, the Plane and Gemstone maintained pressure in the river, while Vash's Wine Barrel returned to his own jungle, circling behind Da Long Keng.

——He still had one last Control Ward on him.

Vash's game sense is average; he only had one Control Ward, so he could only gamble.

Perhaps luck was on his side; Vash guessed right, and when he placed the Control Ward, the Big Dragon still had a little over two thousand health.

Vash hesitated no more, gritted his teeth, tossed the Wine Barrel down, aimed his mouse at Baron Nashor, closed his eyes, and pressed E to cast Smite.

With a boom, Baron Nashor let out a deathly howl.

His teammates' excited shouts rang out in the headset; Vash happily opened his eyes, and a prominent notification flashed down from the top of the screen:

The stage floor trembled, and Vash felt so happy he was about to faint.

The venue erupted completely; the audience's gasps, like shockwaves from a nuclear blast, instantly swept through everything in the Wu Han Sports Center arena.

Vash had no Flash or displacement, and quickly melted under the concentrated fire of the angry TSM players.

Tinowns and Was, however, withdrew safely.

Afterward, the four TSM players, taking advantage that CNB's main force hadn't respawned yet, pushed down one of CNB's middle second-tier towers.

This was the last tower TSM managed to destroy.

CNB's remaining players soon respawned, pushed out all three lanes, and began executing a 4-1 split push: Tinowns' Plane took one lane, Was and the other three grouped together took another lane, and they reasonably allocated the two Big Dragon buffs to the two lanes.

TSM's lineup had decent waveclear, but its biggest flaw was having only one frontline, a weakness that quickly became apparent against CNB's 4-1 split push.

——No one could withstand the Plane on that lane.

Time has already reached 25 minutes, the game has entered the late game stage, the airplane has already built a two-item set, its own range is long, at this time it also has the Baron buff stat bonus, ahead there are also frontline minions with super armor bolstered by the Baron buff, those defending his lane either have to stay far back, or if they come up to clear the wave they'll get blown up, if it were a semi-tank warrior like Nasus, they could barely withstand the airplane's poke and clear the lane, but the laner TSM sent up was Bjergsen's enchantress.

The enchantress is very fragile.

When Bjergsen stepped up to clear the lane for the second time, he was caught by Tinowns, a phosphorus bomb followed by a basic attack then a missile, and the enchantress instantly lost half her health bar!

My goodness! This damage!

Bjergsen was stunned, and could only retreat.

The airplane then took down TSM's bottom second tower.

On the other side, TSM's four players were defending mid lane, they could barely hold it, but pulling one thread moves the whole body, Bjergsen went back to base to replenish, the airplane continued to push the lane forward, TSM had to split players to defend the high ground, if mid dared to hold strong despite being outnumbered, CNB's crocodile and barrel, the two frontliners, are here, they will definitely initiate strongly, without flash, how can they initiate? Flank behind and dive the tower to initiate!

So TSM could only abandon the mid second tower and retreat to high ground.

Both second towers fell in succession, CNB then moved top and took down TSM's top second tower.

By this point, CNB had completed an economic comeback.

Before the Baron buff ended, they again used the pressure from the airplane's lane to open a gap, and CNB successfully broke TSM's bottom high ground.

Then CNB's players, remembering the veterans' teachings, while retreating they casually scavenged, consuming all of TSM's jungle resources before heading home.

When the Baron buff finally ended, CNB gained an economic advantage of nearly two thousand.

A textbook Baron buff attack rhythm!

Miller shouted excitedly,

Without exaggeration, CNB's this wave rhythm even played better than many LPL teams!

Su Xiao Yan's eyes shone with intense surprise as she covered her mouth: 'Looks like we've turned it around!'

The chat said:

【Already turned it around!】

【Holy cow, CNB is awesome!】

【This mid and this AD are truly trash, but their decisions are indeed very reasonable, feeling like they play better than many LPL teams】

【I feel I play better on top than this mid does in lane, but I lack that awareness, so that must be why he's a pro and I'm just a master?】

【Even the wild card is playing macro, am I dreaming…】

【As expected of the LPL's fifth seed, they've got two brushes!】

【What fifth seed?】

【G2 is the LPL's fourth seed, CNB is the fifth seed, brother just got online?】

TSM naturally was not willing to accept defeat; after CNB retreated, they pushed the minion wave out, then the five of them grouped up and pushed mid, forcing CNB into a teamfight, trying to settle the fight before EZ and the enchantress's peak period completely passed. However, when they pushed the minion wave past the river midline, it meant they had entered CNB's territory.

In terms of vision control, CNB is undoubtedly superior to TSM.

Furthermore, CNB's team execution is also stronger than TSM's.

The two sides erupted in a second teamfight near the ruins of CNB's middle second tower; this time, however, CNB, thanks to its vision advantage, took the initiative.

The team fight broke out in five seconds, with CNB exchanging a top lane crocodile for TSM's Incense Burner Monster Lu Lu; normally, the aftermath should have been a TSM collapse.

Yet Bjergsen and Doublelift, relying on pure skill, managed to trade two more.

When the team fight ended, both sides had traded three for three.

If an LPL team had fought the team fight like that while holding an economic advantage, they would surely be criticized, but the CNB members only felt delighted.

In this team fight, TSM's dual carries' performance was already dazzling, even worthy of being called a burst of their little universe, yet they could only manage a draw against CNB!

This means that CNB's hard strength in team fights has already surpassed TSM!

Thus CNB played with even greater confidence.

At thirty-eight minutes, CNB strongly secured vision of the upper river, using the second Baron Nashor to force TSM into engaging.

One battle decided the outcome; CNB traded two for five and wiped out TSM in a team fight.

Then they pushed forward in one wave, leveling TSM's Ji Di and completing the reversal.
