Chapter 152: U-shaped shadow! The sky full of yellow sand blinds one leaf!

The sound at the Madison Square Garden scene suddenly rushed straight into the clouds!

The EDG fans in the stands turned all their worry and tension from the early game into a massive roar of cheers!

"A desperate counter-attack from Ye! He buried the DK mid-jungle duo under the tower, and Kayn even gave away a shutdown!" Wang Duoduo on the commentary desk tore his vocal cords until his voice cracked: "This push is too exaggerated!"

Guan Zeyuan beside him was also moved beyond measure: "Ye! My god, he really dares to do it in a match point game!"

"It can almost be said that for two consecutive waves, it was this Azir who forcibly blocked DK's desperate offensive single-handedly! He is the true key man!"

Listening to the screams and wails coming from the commentary desk next door.

Although he didn't understand Korean, the constant, clumsy pronunciation similar to "pizza pizza" was enough to understand.

As the replay played, everyone saw this push that could be called a turning point, and the key point where the side-push connected with Maokai's second ultimate.

When the scene of pushing the two into the tower by flipping over the wall was replayed again.

The LCK fans at the scene turned their heads away, unable to bear watching anymore.

The director even specifically cut to the backstage lounge.

Clearlove, wearing headphones, had originally been in his Dark Clearlove form, staring sharply at the screen with a furrowed brow, empathizing with the players on the field—but was suddenly made to stand up and shout by this scene, directly transforming into Bright Clearlove!

Because Ye Bo was there, he, the head coach, was basically a figurehead, usually only helping with some data organization work, and didn't pay special attention to the training content.

So when he saw Maokai's cooperation, he couldn't even believe his eyes!

Thinking about it now.

No wonder he saw Ye Bo practicing Maokai every day a few days ago, he felt strange at the time...

Although Maokai doesn't have many operations, the stability of his skills is high, and every skill has a strategic role where a spit is a nail.

This is also the reason why Ye Bo studied this hero.

It is also because of this that he discovered quite a few things that are not easy to find unless you specifically study them or play many games.

"Well played, Ye Master! Ah cough cough cough!" Jie Jie was overjoyed, so excited that even his coughing sound became much louder.

Although they had practiced in custom rooms.

But he didn't expect that it would have such an effect in actual combat.

After all, Maokai only needs to throw the ultimate in the right direction, while Azir has to consider many things: the timing, direction, and position of the push.

And clearly, anyone with eyes could see that this wave almost instantly rewrote the situation!

Although DK still had some gold advantage.

But it was about to reach 14 minutes, the plating was about to disappear, and DK, who was on the early offensive, still hadn't achieved a decisive result!

Kayn's transformation progress was once again contained, which had become DK's heart disease.

Through the headphones, Ye Bo could vaguely hear the earth-shattering cheers at the scene, which made him extremely excited, and he even wanted to howl to vent his emotions!

However, he forcibly suppressed the impulse and tried his best to calm his restless emotions.

Now was not the time to celebrate.

In a critical match, Ye Bo didn't want to open champagne in the middle of the game.

"Everyone stay steady and don't give opportunities, wait for the next wave, we can take it, the resource team fight is our advantage!"

EDG had previously given up resource team fights just because of Azir's growth characteristics, and there was no combat power during that time.

But now, having harvested a double kill, Azir, who was already growing smoothly, had formed a positional advantage over Sylas and could easily grasp lane priority!

And, Azir already had two gank methods, ultimate + Everfrost, and started to exert the influence of his lane priority.

One wave forced Gragas's Flash in the top lane, one wave drove Kayn away in the jungle to protect the jungle.

In contrast, Kayn, who hadn't transformed, would be an extremely difficult period of time.

"EDG's top and jungle really don't give Kayn a chance to graze energy, he can only graze a little in the mid and bot..." The Roaring Emperor was distressed and empathized.

"DK's composition's ability to force an engage is actually only Gragas, Nami's ultimate is too slow, and if Kayn can transform, Sylas still has a combo skill to use."

"It feels like only forcing a resource team fight can make the opponent come to fight, but the problem is, fighting isn't necessarily winnable..."

Reaching 16 minutes, the second small Dragon was about to refresh.

Logically speaking, EDG could still choose to continue avoiding battle and drag out time for Azir's growth.

The rhythm of the Dragon and Herald this game was also very slow.

But EDG didn't do that.

It was still because of Kayn!

Kayn, who hadn't transformed, was now the person with the best equipment on the whole team, but was unable to provide the corresponding combat power—instead, it resulted in the team's actual combat power still being at a disadvantage!

Since they weren't unable to win, why give up resources for no reason?

DK's composition actually wasn't bad, and because of the compensation mechanism of Kayn's passive, it was impossible for him never to transform.

As long as they dragged it to the back and the multiplier compensation came up, he could transform just by grazing a few times.

So in clear-headed operation, EDG shouldn't just avoid battle during this time.

Instead, they should take the initiative to attack while Kayn had a combat power defect, not giving the opponent a chance to threaten the Dragon Soul team fight in the mid game.

"DK doesn't seem to want to give up this Dragon either, they are clearly very urgent about the rhythm, knowing very well what giving up the contest for this Dragon means to them!"

"Both sides are gathering at the Dragon Pit... eh, but watch Gragas's position!"

"Nuguri is circling!!"

Because of the composition advantage, plus the early jungle tower dive, DK's advantageous lane aside from the jungle was the bot lane.

EDG's bot lane basically didn't cross the river anymore, so the river vision next to the bot lane hadn't been contested much.

This wave, DK played a psychological game.

The four of them stood on the upper side of the river, Kayn kept drilling into the wall to threaten, making the intention of wanting to "graze energy."

Kayn's most powerful and iconic skill is undoubtedly his E skill, Shadow Step, which is also the core of this hero's mobility.

The mechanism of drilling into the wall, unless there is a "hard crowd control" that can also "pass through the wall," even if you hit him with a damage skill, you can't immediately force Kayn out of the wall.

But EDG had Thresh this game... both E and Q could drag Kayn directly out of the wall!

This is why Canyon hadn't played like this before, and even if this wave was a deliberate risk to lower the opponent's vigilance, he was still cautious and didn't dare to move forward too much.

But he still successfully attracted the attention of the EDG crowd.

And Gragas TP'd to their own bot lane tower, passed through the tri-brush, and arrived in the river brush of the bot lane.

The bot lane minion wave was right in the middle of the lane, vaguely able to provide vision, plus there were four teammates covering in the upper half, no one noticed here.

"Something's not right, Gragas doesn't seem to be in the top lane!"

Aatrox, who was pushing the lane in the top lane, suddenly found that Gragas, who had just finished clearing the wave, didn't follow out for the second wave.

And Brother Shengqiang Ge's awareness clearly had a lapse this wave, and he reminded them a bit late—he first thought Gragas had run to eat fruit, or was slow coming back from farming.

Ye Bo was immediately vigilant, but for a moment he couldn't judge.

Maybe the opponent just went back to base to resupply equipment, and then prepared to TP over?

"Brother Shengqiang Ge, you TP over directly, we'll start the Dragon."

"If Gragas is baiting your TP, after we finish the Dragon, I can TP up to defend the tower."

In the absence of more information, Ye Bo made the safest and correct decision.

He instructed Meiko to throw a ward at his feet, and a TP light lit up directly at the Dragon Pit entrance, not giving the opponent a chance to catch a timing where they were short-handed.

"They discovered it!?" ShowMaker saw the intention to TP and force the fight, and asked suspiciously.

"No, their positioning is that they haven't discovered it!" Canyon looked at the opponent's positioning and made a judgment with absolute certainty.

Since that was the case, they had to seize the short time difference of the opponent's TP landing!

"Nuguri! Engage!"

The four DK members stood on the upper side of the river, looking as if they were waiting for something.

And at this time, Gragas had already flipped over the wall into the jungle with a belly-flop!

The five EDG members stood right in front of the Dragon Pit entrance, a long distance from the bot lane river brush position, if Gragas wanted to walk out directly and throw the longest-range R, there would definitely be sufficient reaction time.

So this infiltration position sought an opportunity to strike from blind vision!

"It's bad, EDG hasn't noticed at all!"

"Their vision focus is near the Dragon Pit and the upper river, and there's no reason for them to set up vision in this position in their own jungle!"

Gragas had already landed, close to the wall.

The four EDG members were right around the TP ward, which was to prevent Aatrox from landing and appearing misaligned—but this also became the target for the Explosive Cask!

Nuguri pulled the fuse of 【Explosive Cask】 with all his might, and threw it out from the shadows!

"Perfect angle!"

"DK is about to blow the horn of counter-attack!!"

Everyone's attention was on the four people approaching from above.

No one thought that an explosive barrel would fly out from their right rear!

However.

Ye Bo made an action that seemed extremely absurd at this moment—

Pushing 【Emperor's Divide】 forward out of thin air.

"Azir even made a mistake! Ye is flustered and missed... eh, what!!!"

"Why!!!"

Two shouts of disbelief came from the LCK commentary desk.

In order not to startle the snake, the four DK members deliberately kept their distance—anyway, the four opponents would also be blown into their faces.

So this sand wall, unless it could block Nami's Tidal Wave, was just a "missed ultimate."

But strangely.

Just as the sand wall was pushed out, the explosive cask had already landed accurately, exploding at everyone's heels...

However, the bodies of the EDG members didn't move a single bit!

Not even an inch!

It looked as if Gragas had also "missed his ultimate."

But everyone saw clearly that the ultimate landed right in the mouths of all the EDG members, and their health bars clearly fluctuated.

Yet, it didn't cause any displacement at all.

"Turn back and find Gragas!"

"He doesn't have Flash and should be out of E!"

After Ye Bo recovered, because there was vision defense on the outer edge of the Blue buff, based on the route Gragas could take to reach this position, it was easy to guess how the opponent reached this position.

And Gragas's E, if it didn't hit a target to reduce the cooldown, the cooldown was as long as 12 seconds!

Aatrox landed his TP.

The four DK members in the back still wanted to stop them.

But if Gragas's ultimate didn't blow anyone back... now it was equivalent to their formation being separated!

Kalista directly activated her ultimate, the spirit ball, and threw Thresh onto the wall!

Nuguri had already sensed danger, but without the two major crowd control skills of E and R, he couldn't pull away and delay the distance.

"Five people surrounding Gragas! DK is stuck here, it seems they can't save him!"

"Gragas is killed first!"

"In that case, the small Dragon should be taken without injury! Plus a kill on Gragas!"

"No... so why didn't Gragas's ultimate knock anyone up!?"

Even the LPL's own commentators asked urgently after describing the battle situation.

The shocked DK crowd originally wanted to press pause again.

But were stopped by ShowMaker and Canyon.

Because, first of all, it was very clear that this must have something to do with Azir's "missed ultimate," after all, the timing of the two was too precise.

ShowMaker hadn't forgotten the embarrassment of the "Flash Snowball" pause in the group stage.

Not to mention having experienced three games.

Now in his view, it seemed normal for the person on the opposite side to use some outrageous operations...

As for Canyon.

From the fact that he also liked to use various bizarre designs, it could be seen that he was also very good at studying these game mechanisms, so he probably guessed some clues.

"Holy crap! Ye Master, how did you do that, I almost pressed Flash!" The thick nasal tone still couldn't hide Jie Jie's emotions.

"This... let's take the Dragon first, Gragas is 80% likely to have TP'd over, it should be easy to take!"

Explaining it was a bit complicated, so Ye Bo focused on the game first.

Speaking of which.

This really wasn't the understanding given by Level 7 proficiency—Level 7 proficiency's trivia was even more shocking!

It was actually after the first game ended, when Ye Bo was reviewing the footage alone, that he inadvertently noticed a thread and thus received "inspiration."

It was that wave of "Three Fragile in the Air" in the Herald fight.

As everyone knows: {Azir's ultimate wall, Azir himself and his teammates can all pass through directly, and it won't count as a wall obstruction}.

But since it doesn't count as a wall for teammates—why could it let Ornn's E successfully knock them up?

Therefore.

Ye Bo suddenly realized at that time that perhaps the mechanism of Azir's ultimate was a bit "special."

It was probably that although the ultimate doesn't count as a wall for teammates and himself, if a "forced displacement" skill is used, it will be judged as a wall again.

Ye Bo entered the training camp at that time and used {Protobelt} and {Galeforce} to try, and sure enough, it confirmed this point—Azir couldn't pass through his own wall using these two things either.

So, what's the use of this?

Ye Bo, with his wild imagination, thought of a point.

If Azir could build a wall at any time.

Then could some crowd control skills that couldn't "knock people back over the wall" use the ultimate to perform a certain sense of "control cancellation"?

Coincidentally, the object Ye Bo experimented on was Gragas!

Perhaps it wasn't a coincidence.

Because there aren't many heroes who specifically note in the skill description text that {this skill cannot knock enemies back over the wall}.

Thanks to Ye Bo's mastery of Gragas, this was a hero he remembered, so naturally he used him for the experiment.

The result was this scene now!

This can be said to be a brand-new combination operation that completely combines "the mechanisms of two heroes" and "game mechanisms"!

"Knockback Cancellation Sand Wall"

"DK... this wave hurts so much!"

"Originally it was a counter-offensive for DK, if Gragas had blown them back, this team fight would definitely have been half-won! Lucian's growth is very good!"

"Gragas's kill was fed to Azir again, and they have to lose the small Dragon..."

"Most importantly, Kayn again, again, again failed to get energy!"

The LCK commentary desk, which had just taken a breath, suddenly deflated again.

But at this moment.

The core of the DK team stood out once again—mid and jungle.

"Canyon doesn't seem to want to give up! He wants to be a hero!"

"But although Kayn has Flash this wave, Thresh can also exert powerful restrictions on him, not to mention Azir and Maokai... wait!"

Ye Bo was reminding in the voice chat, telling the jungler and Kalista to use their skills together.

But, there was a small foreshadowing.

That was also something Ye Bo, as a mid laner, wasn't sensitive to and hard to notice.

Kayn had nothing else, but he farmed a lot of jungle camps, and had already finished 40 layers of the jungle item by 13 minutes—Smite had evolved to 1200 damage.

However, because Maokai had been giving up the jungle, his jungle item was still missing a few layers!

Kalista's E skill had long been nerfed, only dealing 50% damage to jungle monsters, not to mention that in the case of not very good equipment, bursting a few hundred health was a lot, and it wasn't as powerful as imagined.

Canyon knew Thresh was watching him, and when he attacked this wave, he had already thought of the operation.

"Kayn approaches the Dragon Pit from the wall... Flash + Goredrinker!"

"Instantly hits the ultimate mark and enters Thresh's body, dodging Thresh's skills, Canyon is so detailed!"

Kayn's ultimate must deal damage to be used.

But if he uses Q or W before transformation, it might be caught by Thresh due to the super long front-swing delay and lack of crowd control.

So, Canyon directly flashed + Goredrinker, and instantly started the mark at close range!

Subsequently, Kayn stayed inside Thresh's body, stably and accurately pressing {Primal Smite} from the air!

{When Kayn's ultimate is inside the opponent's body, he can use Smite}

"Stole it!!!"

"And Sylas touched over... stole Kalista's ultimate!"

"A spirit ball brought Kayn back from 1000 yards away in the air, Kayn didn't even land!"

"This is DK's mid-top-jungle partner! This is the daring DK! They preserved the spark and hope of a comeback for the team... then this wave is still acceptable!"

The LCK commentary desk, which had just been mourning, jumped out of the coffin.

Getting this small Dragon, DK still existed in the theoretical situation of forcing a Dragon Soul team fight at 26 minutes.

It was still a very powerful Ocean Dragon Soul!

Red Kayn, Sylas, Gragas, Ocean Dragon Soul is undoubtedly a huge boost, EDG must compete.

And if they hadn't gotten this Dragon, this theoretical time would have been delayed to at least after 31 minutes, at which point they would inevitably wait for a complete Azir.

The gap was clearly not just a little bit.

Jie Jie excitedly blamed himself in the voice chat: "Ah, I really, I didn't even Smite it!"

Viper shook his head: "My bad, pulled the spear too early."

Meiko was also a bit apologetic: "It was me who didn't watch him, if I had known, I would have flashed to hit him out of the wall, my brain didn't turn around..."

"This wave I was also stupid, almost got shadowed by this Gragas, fortunately there was Ye Master's ultimate," Brother Shengqiang Ge said with lingering fear.

Ye Bo naturally wouldn't blame his teammates, and quickly spoke to comfort them.

"No problem, no problem~ brothers, it's not a big deal, didn't we kill someone, not a loss!"

"My growth is super good, just wait for my equipment and it's done!"

Although every teammate had made some slight mistakes this wave, such as the initial bot lane vision, top lane information, and the jungler's Smite.

It also confirmed Ye Bo's concerns before the game—why he had to "go all in" this game.

The longer this BO5 dragged on, the greater the variables, and this was only the third game; if it were really dragged to the fifth game, it might really be a bit dangerous.

And there was one key point this wave that was finally noticed.

"Wait, Kayn seems to have enough energy after hitting Thresh this wave!"

"Although it's Blue Kayn's energy... but at the very least, as long as we wait four more minutes!"

"At most in four minutes, Kayn will be able to transform and evolve!"

The energy Kayn hit in the early game was basically from the bot lane, occasionally hitting the mid lane, basically all ranged.

And don't look at how he didn't hit Thresh many times this wave, but these few minutes of vacuum period, plus the extra boost of the most important "game time," the triple excess energy finally helped Kayn complete the breakthrough.

Canyon naturally couldn't transform into Blue Kayn.

His growth wasn't advanced enough this game, and he couldn't play the essence of Blue Kayn.

But the 4-minute waiting time could at least make the transformation not so far away.

And they also found an opportunity to "accelerate."

Nuguri disappeared again after pushing the lane.

Brother Shengqiang Ge was worried about whether the opponent had run around again, and his always steady positioning leaned slightly forward—but was caught by Kayn who was lurking!

Aatrox decisively used Flash to escape, but the two DK members chased relentlessly, also using Flash!

Fortunately, Maokai was in the jungle not far away, using his long-distance ultimate to persuade them to retreat, and then decisively followed with Flash to rescue.

Fortunately, there was no kill.

But Kayn had already achieved his goal, and the Red energy he absorbed from the two was accelerating the speed of transformation.

At 18 minutes and 45 seconds, Kayn returned to the fountain again.

The magic sickle turned into a blood-colored vortex and swallowed Kayn, and the whispers of the Darkin drilled into his eardrums like snakes.

Rhaast's grin shook the bones of his mortal body, and the dark red patterns finally completely occupied this shell!

"Kayn has transformed! Before 19 minutes!"

"But to be honest, this already very slow progress, EDG's gold gap has already achieved a reversal!"

"As long as Azir is given a little more time, the natural advantage is already very big!"

"It's just a pity... we just said that EDG might be able to consider hitting the Herald at the point, or even forcing the Dragon, it seems there's no such opportunity."

Just as the crowd on the LPL commentary desk was talking.

The battle situation quietly changed again.

"Both sides seem to want to take this Herald while there's still time, which is reasonable, after all, if they get it now, they should be able to force a Tier 2 tower!"

"Eh!? What does Canyon want to do again!"

"This is... does he want to do it again!?"

Kayn had come to the top lane again.

The rhythm of this game was the slowest EDG had played in this World Championship, nearly 20 minutes, and neither side had broken the opponent's Tier 1 tower in any of the three lanes.

But precisely because of this, vision would actually be easier to do.

After all, their own jungle was always safe, and as everyone's ward cooldowns turned, it wasn't that easy for Kayn to invade.

There was only one problem.

The God's-eye view knew how Kayn got in at Level 1—EDG didn't know!

The design of the wall at the edge of the map next to the defensive tower was truly too unconventional, and it was really hard to associate it with this aspect for a while, only guessing if the opponent had gotten stuck in some vision.

And Kayn, eyeing the minion wave, did the same thing again.

Taking advantage of the gap when Aatrox went to the tri-brush to set up vision, he "openly and honestly" lurked into the back again, arriving at EDG's Krug camp!

"DK still hasn't given up the offensive! Canyon's Kayn, in his first wave after transformation, has once again carried out a bold offensive design!"

"Kayn placed a Control Ward in the Red buff brush, Sylas used TP!"

"Mid-jungle double-flank!!"

"And this wave Sylas first stole Maokai's ultimate from the front, EDG couldn't have thought of Kayn's entry, let alone guessed that the opponent would suddenly use Kayn's TP ward to get to the back, inside their own jungle!"

The EDG crowd, who were already standing in the river, really couldn't sense it.

Bright Clearlove in the back was going crazy, wishing he could change into a red suit to see if he could psychically possess Red Kayn on the field and tip off his teammates!

The gold gap between the two sides was almost the same.

Of course, almost the same meant it was EDG's advantage, after all, they had two major late-game guarantees and team fight monsters, Azir and Aatrox, and continuing to farm was definitely an advantage.

But at least at this point in time, DK's composition's melee ability was only stronger than EDG's!

What they lacked was the means to force an engage.

The composition Danny designed was originally very reasonable, and the top laner specifically supplemented Gragas just to make up for this problem—who would have thought it could be cracked like that!?"

So, they now had to let the mid-jungle find an opportunity first, and let Gragas provide the second-hand crowd control follow-up.

For example, let Sylas release a perfect Maokai ultimate first.

But clearly, releasing Maokai's ultimate from the front is hard to hit, and the five EDG members aren't wooden stakes.

Canyon and ShowMaker discussed it.

This design immediately emerged.

It would be hard for anyone to imagine that the spreading Nature's Grasp could appear from behind their own jungle like this!

"He's here... he's here," the Roaring Emperor whispered, as if afraid that his voice would be too loud and cause alarm on the field.

"If this wave can be won, it's very likely there will be a Baron plus a Dragon Soul point!!"

Seeing that the positioning was complete.

The encirclement seemed to be complete, and he couldn't wait to shout loudly.

"DK's generals are asking the heavens, and the only response is their own selves from two years ago! They are determined not to let this BO5 end here, they want to kill this match point game!"

"This is DK never give up!!"

"Sylas knocks out Nature's Grasp!"

【Nature's Grasp】 can spread for a full 3000 yards, and the closer it gets to the end, the faster it will be, making it harder to dodge.

There was no extra warning, whether it was the mini-map or sound effects, only visual effects that weren't very obvious.

Finally, Ye Bo noticed the change in the direction of their own jungle.

But the Nature's Grasp starting from the Red buff had already grown to an astonishing speed, and the direction was exactly covering their retreat!

The Nature's Grasp at this distance would cause the longest control of {2.25 seconds}.

And, because it was a skill released by Sylas, the damage after the high ability power bonus would also be quite scary!

"How... how did he get there!" Jie Jie again made the same confusion as at Level 1.

"Sell me, sell me, I'll block!"

After saying that, Thresh prepared to actively rush toward Nature's Grasp, using his physical body to fight for an escape route for his teammates.

But the lit-up blue ward already saw Red Kayn and Sylas following closely behind.

And not to mention whether they could run.

Even if they could really run, they would have to pay more than one Flash, plus the support's life.

That would instantly turn the situation into 4v5, and the opponent would only pay the price of one ultimate, and still have to give up all positioning—perhaps even risking losing the Baron!

Not to mention that it was clearly impossible for DK to let them go easily!

"Don't go!"

Just at this moment, Ye Bo's firm voice tore through the voice channel.

"Listen to me!"

"Here! Here!"

"Go here, don't move!"

Extremely rapid and noisy marking signals rang out on the map.

The EDG crowd didn't hesitate, immediately changing their pace in unison, as if they had received a gathering order, moving toward the instruction point issued by the Desert Emperor, and then standing still.

As precise as "chess pieces" placed by hand.

And Azir himself was retreating alone toward the bottom—looking as if he wanted his four teammates to "block" the skills for him!

This scene looked extremely bizarre to the outside world!

"The EDG crowd is running in reverse, they aren't preparing to leave? Only Azir is leaving alone!?"

"Even if someone blocks, they have to leave, and standing like this will get them R'd by three! The one blocking is certain death!"

"Ah!?"

"Ah???"

"They passed... passed... passed... passed through!!!"

"The four EDG people passed through the incoming Nature's Grasp! What does this mean!!!"

A shocking scene appeared.

The four people who went to stand at the three closest points respectively, actually just like that, all brushed past the Nature's Grasp that completely covered them.

No one's health bar fluctuated... which also very clearly showed that no one had eaten the effect of this ultimate!

It was as if a fake ultimate had been released.

The five DK people were all stunned.

"Retreat first!" ShowMaker decisively shouted and commanded.

Their original plan was that Nature's Grasp would at least control one person, Red Kayn and Sylas would flank and follow up with double control burst, and cooperate with the three teammates coming from the left to surround and kill, completing a pre-battle reduction in numbers.

But now, the situation was similar to the Dragon Pit fight.

Once this kind of flanking engage didn't succeed—it was equivalent to having their own battlefield separated!

Fortunately, Sylas and Kayn hadn't come down yet, and of the three on the left, only Nami had used her ultimate to respond.

They could retreat into their own Blue jungle in a few steps, with no worries about retreating.

The DK crowd thought so.

But then they realized, was there something wrong somewhere?

What about Azir who "retreated" alone!?

Azir had just retreated to the right alone, looking like he was in the opposite direction to the DK crowd on the left, and was in a "desperate situation" on the main battlefield, so no one paid attention to the person running away.

But clearly.

The soldiers are still fighting hard, how can the general return alone?

Azir summoned sand soldiers behind the wall, Shifting Sands toward the back, looking like he was dodging Nature's Grasp, but changed direction before reaching mid-air—passing through the extremely thick wall of the Blue buff.

Straight into the enemy's rear!

The wall became the best cover, and no one discovered the figure of Azir, who was alone and wearing armor and holding a sharp weapon!

Using the ultra-extended displacement of "wall-sticking," he flashed back to push before landing!

Emperor's Divide!

Azir's flight trajectory formed a "U-shaped shadow drift" back-push.

Like a giant yellow sand claw standing on the river surface.

The imperial soldiers pushed the three who still wanted to retreat into their own Blue jungle back into the faces of their teammates, and then followed up with Everfrost to freeze them as a group!

"Azir's push!!!" Rita could only shout concisely.

"The mid-jungle above just retreated, but the three teammates in the back were pushed back by the shadow drift! It was a back-push without any vision or foresight!" Guan Zeyuan clearly described the battle situation.

"He re-surrounded the three who wanted to retreat back into the encirclement!!"

Maokai met them with his ultimate, Thresh followed up with a hook to lock onto the flying Gragas.

Aatrox slashed out three sword blades, Kalista jumped wildly to output.

The three DK members hadn't even escaped the control of the Nature's Grasp in front of them, and didn't even have a chance to operate, before they became three corpses in the focus fire of the five!

The explosive screams at the scene rose and fell one after another.

"Too exaggerated! Ye's Azir! He can always unleash a breakthrough charge at the most critical moment!" Guan Zeyuan was so excited he was a bit incoherent: "He is the true Azir of LPL!"

"DK's three fell, I'm afraid the Baron is not guaranteed! A desperate ambush... but it became a dead end!"

Wang Duoduo, who was extremely excited, roared, and his poetic spirit arose.

"One man guards the pass, ten thousand cannot open it!"

"I am here, those who dare to cross the thunder pool will be executed!"

"DK's generals are praying to the heavens, but the only response is the sky full of yellow sand blinding one leaf, completely covering the entire sky of DK!"

On the DK player seats, at this time, there were only five portraits with their mouths agape.

No one could have imagined this situation.

19 minutes and 45 seconds.

Baron Nashor was about to be born.

But 2v5, it was clear there was no suspense anymore.

At this very moment, the only possibility seemed to be the last one: stealing the Baron.

But EDG couldn't give the same opportunity, twice.

Sylas's ultimate had been used.

Kayn had no protection from the spirit ball, and Flash was still cooling down, the only thing he could rely on was Shadow Step to forcibly approach.

But Azir—collided with his body, pressing Everfrost + Zhonya's in mid-air!

By "crashing" into the wall in his golden statue form, Kayn also caused the W "Sea-Bottom Moon-Scooping" that he wanted to stop to miss!

He was knocked out of the wall by a lump of golden chicken.

Thresh stably followed up with a hook, Maokai instantly flashed + W to bind, Aatrox took another big step to flip over the wall, and slashed down with a decapitation!

Accompanied by Kayn's death.

Baron Nashor also lost the last suspense.

"Baron taken!!!"

"Plus almost wiping out the team, just this one wave of gold gap hit nearly 4k! Exploded the economy in one fell swoop! It's a complete explosion!"

"EDG's extreme response from all members... seems to be gripping the throat of this match!"

The director gave a replay during the return-to-base time.

And they were all displayed from Azir's "first-person perspective."

The director, who was watching ten screens at the same time, knew how to restore it.

Even if they couldn't hear the voice chat.

But Azir, at that critical moment, clearly clicked signals on the mini-map, instructing his teammates to disperse, still showing everything.

That was actually something Ye Bo discovered when studying Maokai—{Maokai's ultimate has a "gap" of half a body width between each vine after passing the halfway point, and it will gradually become larger as the distance spreads}.

"At first it was very narrow, impassable, but after walking dozens of steps, it suddenly opened up!"

Of course, in actual combat, because of the "ultimate angle" and "League perspective" problems, it's not easy to apply it to instantly find that point.

But if someone can help find it, then you just need to aim your mouse and right-click, and that's enough.

As for why Ye Bo could find it.

Only because of familiarity!

And in the slow motion, everyone also clearly saw all this.

And then, it was the shocking "U-shaped shadow drift."

Looking from the first-person perspective, it's even more shocking.

【Holy crap! Ye Wen is really "controlling the sand soldiers," this works too!?】

【Soldiers! Form ranks!】

【Ye era! Boiling anticipation!】

【Every time the team is in a desperate situation, he can always stand out, this mid laner really gives people a sense of security! In contrast (】

【When danger is at hand, only responsibility—Responsibility God!】

【Can only say the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, the responsibility is getting bigger and bigger!】

【He is alone, but it's like having thousands of troops!】

Carrying the Baron buff, plus the gold gap that had been instantly pulled open.

DK's third Dragon Soul point was also taken by EDG.

It can be said that the last bit of hope was also shattered.

Azir's growth had reached an unstoppable point, not to mention this game wasn't just a single-core composition of Azir!

After experiencing consecutive designs, EDG instead started to play steadily and slowly push, operating steadily in all three lanes, compressing the space for mistakes to the minimum.

Gradually pushing, gradually depriving all DK members of their share of breathing air on Summoner's Rift.

"They're going to win, they're going to win!" Wang Duoduo couldn't wait to jump up from his seat: "The gold gap has been expanded to the 10,000 mark! Azir's damage is too terrifying now!"

"DK can no longer stop EDG's push!"

"The outcome of this BO5 is finally going to be settled!"

25 minutes and 57 seconds.

DK's main base health bar was cleared, shattering into fireworks all over the sky!

The expressions of the two on the LCK commentary desk were very wonderful.

CT Ge suddenly turned his head with a strange expression, looked at the Roaring Emperor beside him, and opened his mouth seriously.

"You say, is there a possibility, maybe DK is still being tricked today..."
