Chapter 256: Fusion Technique Tathagata Forbidden Army

~34 min read 6,650 words

The early-game confrontation completely changed GEN's pre-match plan.

Sejuani's health was poor, the bottom lane started at a disadvantage, and naturally, she could only return to the upper half zone to start the jungle—equivalent to V5 getting two lower half zones and getting the half-zone offensive power!

According to the lineup advantage of the level one team fight, successfully opening the game and getting the lower half zone, plus the strong combination of Draven and Braum and the lane priority in the mid lane, could allow Sejuani to reverse-counter and bully Wukong in turn.

But now everything is wrong!

And looking at it this way, the selection of Rumble clearly became a foreshadowing.

Score's consideration from the perspective of lineup construction was no problem, supplementing an AP plus AOE hero that can swing in the top lane, which is reasonable.

The problem lies in the fact that in his original assumption, both sides would not care about the top lane in this game, just like the previous few games, letting the two people in the top lane grind and develop.

Rumble is a hero whose "player difference" has a great impact. Some players play laning very powerfully, while some players can only be a "team fight tool" when playing, and maybe even a tool in the form of setting fire to the mountain...

Not to mention anything else, just a similar {temperature control} mechanism, Rumble doesn't know how much more complicated it is than Gnar.

It's hard for a season to practice a Gnar, Rumble doesn't know how many seasons it will take~

And Doran's proficiency in Rumble was very average, and it was also temporarily selected to piece together the lineup. Expecting him to win the laning against Gnar, which is not easy to fight, is clearly daydreaming, and the hero himself is also very difficult to cooperate with the jungler.

Sejuani tried very hard to make trouble in the upper half zone, but was completely oiled by Li Xuanjun, and had no chance at all, helplessly falling into a period of jungle brushing and development.

Peaceful development is naturally what V5 is happy to see.

"GEN hasn't launched any offensive in these few minutes, and the mid lane doesn't seem to have suppressed anything..." The Roaring Emperor looked a bit anxious.

"This rhythm is not quite right. Chovy should be playing more fiercely. This is GEN's only advantage lane in the early game!"

Although seeing Ye Bo choose Azir, the coach didn't expect Chovy, who was beaten into a shadow in the previous game, to be able to exert pressure in the laning phase, just wanting a choice like Tristana that can push the lane mindlessly.

Anyway, the bottom lane in the lineup is an absolute advantage, GEN can completely launch an offensive around the bottom lane and make Draven fat.

But it was precisely because of the changes in the early game that now Sejuani was temporarily difficult to return to the lower half zone, and Draven also needed to supplement development, leading to the mid lane actually becoming the only advantage lane.

And in this case, if Tristana still only supplemented minions and pushed the lane, it would be far from enough.

Ye Bo actually felt a bit strange.

Reasonably speaking, Tristana has experience and equipment advantages, and should be able to suppress himself in laning... but the opposite side is "honest" to death, basically just pushing the lane and supplementing minions by the book.

Ye Bo originally thought of several trading heart-machines, but couldn't use them at all—the opponent didn't trade with him at all!

Of course, Chovy also had something to say.

Didn't the coach want me to push the lane to save my life? I executed what I should do well, what else do you want?

Is it that I must die for you to see?

If this were the first game of the two sides, he would definitely frequently find opportunities to jump face and consume... but after experiencing the previous game, at least for the moment, he couldn't raise the evil thought of confrontation.

It wasn't until 5 and a half minutes that GEN waited for the mid lane to reach level six before daring to go to the small dragon, which was considered entering the first wave of rhythm.

"V5 gives up the dragon directly, Wukong heads to the top lane to harass Rumble, and steals Sejuani's newly respawned top jungle!"

"This Sejuani is hard-swapping the jungle to fight the small dragon, and the jungle monsters are lost quite a bit."

"There is another problem, now the laning of the three lanes has not been able to wear down the tower health, so even if the Rift Herald is taken at eight minutes, it is not very useful. Just taking map resources is far from enough for GEN."

Even if GEN doesn't usually fight strong attack systems, they see them often, and naturally know that this advantage is completely insufficient.

Peanut also wanted to make a move.

But, it's still that sentence.

The intention of lineup construction is too obvious!

Just looking at the lineup, GEN couldn't possibly go to catch the top lane, which is extremely difficult to cooperate with.

And the mid-lane Azir itself is also extremely difficult to catch, especially after level six, there is still Flash—the Flash blown out at level one had already refreshed by the time Sejuani reached level six.

This lineup looks like a strong attack, but if you look closely, it seems that it still hasn't escaped the prototype of "four protect one."

Therefore, Wukong has always been in the lower half zone, and doesn't even need to counter-crouch. As long as he deliberately shows his face from time to time to exert some pressure, combined with the top lane TP, he can make GEN not dare to easily tower-dive.

And the emergence of this offensive dilemma is the problem of lineup construction.

If GEN's top lane chose a strong early-game hero that is easy to cooperate with the jungler, and the mid lane played a bit more fiercely, Sejuani would have the opportunity to gank all three lanes.

Naturally, there would be no worry about offensive rhythm points!

But now it has become that Sejuani doesn't dare to easily go to other lanes, otherwise she has to be careful that Wukong will directly dry your Draven!

Draven's death at the beginning was already very painful. If he is killed again, the collapse of the key rhythm axis point is something GEN absolutely cannot accept.

Until 7 minutes.

After shopping around in the mid and bottom lanes, there was really no opportunity, so Peanut went to the upper half zone to prepare to take the Herald first.

Although Rumble's laning is not good, Rumble is definitely no less inferior to Gnar in terms of team fighting.

And at this time, the 7-level Azir's level one Q is still 14 seconds, and he doesn't have the ability to fight at all. The sand soldiers summoned can only stand guard in place, in a situation where there is damage but no damage can be dealt!

However, on the eve of the Herald.

Both junglers seem to have some ideas.

Tristana's willingness to trade clearly became stronger. Although he didn't use W to jump face and startle the snake, he started pressing forward when he saw the sand soldiers disappear.

Azir immediately stood up another sand soldier in place for a routine trade.

And this wave of trading can also be seen that the main W Azir in this version is not useless.

The level four W sand soldier has a panel damage of nearly 170 points per auto-attack—the Azir of the past could never have this panel damage at this point.

In contrast, Tristana's one auto-attack is only 101.

These three Hail of Blades auto-attacks even lost quite a bit of health!

Of course, that's because Tristana didn't throw the E {Explosive Spark} while starting the auto-attack, otherwise the exchange would definitely be Tristana gaining health.

Ye Bo keenly noticed some clues.

Pressing forward, and not using E for consumption, that might be thinking of using it to refresh the W secondary jump, combined with the suddenly radical trading method...

"The opponent's jungler, might be in the mid lane again."

Xun immediately responded: "Then I'll come to the mid lane!?"

And Ye Bo, who was frequently harassed, thought calmly and had a new idea.

Chovy on the opposite side was marking the CD of his {Hail of Blades}.

Peanut, seeing that Azir's positioning hadn't retreated, clearly felt something: "He doesn't retreat after trading like this, the jungler must be behind. I'll take the initiative this wave, just hit the Flash!"

Peanut knew that Azir with full skills was very difficult to kill. Anyway, the Herald team fight was easy to fight. Even if Sejuani's ultimate was used to exchange for Azir's Flash, there was no pressure.

Being able to hit Azir's Flash, Sejuani's ultimate would be able to pose a fatal danger to Azir in the next wave, giving birth to a new rhythm point.

Hail of Blades CD turned.

Tristana jumped immediately and threw the E skill {Explosive Spark} in the air!

At the same time, Sejuani had already sprinted out of the upper river grass and threw the {Glacial Prison} lasso!

Ye Bo reacted quickly, almost immediately placing sand soldiers behind him, driving {Shifting Sands} to fly out...

But this move in the eyes of the GEN mid-jungle duo—looked like seeing a huge flaw!

"Can go up, can go up!" Peanut shouted urgently.

Azir directly WE two-in-one short-distance drift and flew out, but Tristana suddenly flashed face-to-face in the air, forcibly interrupting the displacement of {Shifting Sands}!

Everyone didn't look at the camera, as if they could see Chovy's gnashing teeth expression.

With the same move as level one, he repeated the same trick again, using the {collision Flash} at the extreme distance to interrupt Shifting Sands!

It looked like this wave of Azir WE pulling away was enough to dodge the long-distance Sejuani ultimate.

But if you think about the level one scene, you definitely know that it is possible to be interrupted again, only by flashing is it the safest and most secure.

In the eyes of the GEN duo, this is the opponent being arrogant, holding a fluke mentality, wanting to save Flash.

And this mentality just happened to be a fatal flaw!

Although Azir successfully dodged {Glacial Prison} with short-distance displacement, the lasso exploded automatically after flying to the farthest distance, still producing a large area of frost storm slow.

Tristana quickly auto-attacked to explode the spark, refreshing and resetting W.

Sejuani circled from below toward the defensive tower direction.

The two stood in two directions, ensuring that Azir could only hit one person with his ultimate.

Anyway, Sejuani is thick-skinned, and blowing him into the tower doesn't matter, there is absolutely no risk of death.

As for Tristana, he held the reset W skill tightly.

Chovy has quite a bit of experience in {control offset} for {Rocket Jump}, and can even be said to be the most proficient person in the entire LCK.

He had absolute certainty that he could use control offset when Azir pushed the ultimate!

"Caught him! Might be able to kill!"

"GEN mid-jungle's scene reproduction! Ye really doesn't have a long memory! He forgot how he died at level one just now!"

After the spark detonated, Azir had already fallen to half health.

Tristana only needs to auto-attack a few more times, and the ultimate can be thrown out to kill!

And at this time, 99% of normal people's first reaction is to Flash into the tower.

But Ye Bo didn't run toward the tower.

Because it was impossible to pull out of the attack coverage of Sejuani and Tristana in both directions.

Azir had clearly walked to the front of the tower, but didn't Flash into the tower, but flashed into the wall of F6!

"Aigoo, what a smart decision!" Xu Xiu on the commentary desk looked enlightened.

"No wonder he dared to give this position, he calculated Tristana's Flash interruption! Maybe he just wanted to exchange Flash?"

The god's-eye view is easier to see the idea.

Xu Xiu thought Azir wanted to use the wall as a real cover, forcing Tristana to have to use W to

But the landed Emperor did not strike directly, instead walking one step further forward, tanking a shot from Tristana, his health already extremely close to the execute threshold of his ultimate.

At this moment, the Emperor summoned the Phalanx to defend and strike!

Tristana was pushed high into the air by the Phalanx.

"Finally took the bait."

ShowMaker only guessed half of it right.

Although the turret damage was high, it could not "stop" the opponent's forward steps; the two who held the heart of a sure kill would definitely Flash to chase into the turret to finish the damage, and the Emperor would be hard-pressed to escape death.

But it was different here.

The reason Ye Bo deliberately walked here—was because this was the Emperor's domain!

"Eh!?" Chovy, realizing the situation, let out a suspicious sound.

Tristana was not pushed out of the wall by the Phalanx, but was "blocked" at the edge of the Raptor camp's "corner"!

The distance between the Phalanx and the wall seemed to be less than an inch, but it perfectly trapped Tristana in the crevice, unable to move a bit!

The Emperor took another step back before raising his staff.

The W-reserved sand soldier and the second sand soldier refreshed by the E collision stood up one after another; the order was given, and the two sand soldiers fiercely lunged forward for a short distance!

Tristana stood blankly on the spot, watching the two sand spears rushing in, constantly white spear shafts in, red spear shafts out!

"What is this!!"

"The Emperor can kill with one auto-attack plus his ultimate at this health! But Tristana doesn't seem to have enough range to auto-attack, he can't get an attack off!"

Tristana's ultimate only has a 550-yard targeting range, and her attack range is only 605 yards.

And the Emperor's W plus Q can manipulate sand soldiers at a distance of over 900 yards!

If it were in the laning phase or normal terrain, Tristana would only need to step back to easily create distance—but at this moment, he could only be like a sinner judged by the Emperor, pinned in the corner by the Phalanx and obediently receiving punishment!

The pitiful Tristana was huddled in the corner, it was simply like "Wall-Blocking Bullying Kill"!

It had already been shown earlier that a W-max Emperor wasn't lacking damage, just lacking the opportunity to output it.

The Phalanx can last for 5 seconds; with Hail of Blades, it was enough for the two sand soldiers to poke out a full 7 auto-attacks, even enough to poke a full-health Tristana into a sieve!

Sejuani, who had trekked to the wall, hesitated for a long time but still didn't Flash over the wall.

Sejuani had neither Q nor R, watching the Emperor auto-attacking while walking toward the bush of the first turret, knowing that even if she Flashed over the wall, she couldn't stop the opponent from remotely commanding the sand soldiers, watching Tristana fall.

"Not this! This!" The Roaring Emperor's pupils shook in disbelief, his speech even stuttering: "This seems to be equivalent to a solo kill!"

"The Emperor... The Emperor! Did the Emperor solo kill Tristana in the early game!!!"

ShowMaker reminded very dutifully: "It's not over yet, the top lane seems to be dying too."

Just as Peanut didn't think the mid lane could be killed at first, Xun also felt there was no opportunity in the mid lane.

He chose to go to the top lane, firstly because he believed GEN wouldn't want Rumble to use his crucial ultimate before the Rift Herald fight, Sejuani likely wouldn't come top, and he definitely had no danger of being counter-ganked.

Secondly, it was naturally his absolute peace of mind and trust in the mid lane, allowing him to safely go do other things!

Doran heard from his jungler that the opposing jungler was in the mid lane, and was trying to push the wave to prepare for the Rift Herald fight, but didn't expect Wukong, who had stealthily crept over from the toilet pit, to appear directly from the upper lane bush!

Cyclone directly stirred things up.

Rumble burned Flash, Wukong followed with Flash to stir up the second knock-up, and with Gnar's return slap, they easily completed the kill!

"Beautiful! Beautiful!!" Miller was so excited he couldn't control himself: "Blooming in both mid and top before the Rift Herald fight! Can they actually find such an opportunity with this composition!"

The high-spirited Wawa shouted even more arrogantly: "You like to gank! You like to gank the mid lane, right! Is Master Ye that easy to bully!!!"

"GEN's attempt to steal a chicken resulted in losing the rice; the Rift Herald fight that V5 couldn't possibly face head-on has turned into a 3-on-1 situation, V5 can actually take the Rift Herald with this composition!"

【(All) V5 Ye: Ganking-your-dad-is-useful-? -? -? -? -?】

【What a wall-blocking bullying! Too cool, Master Ye!】

【It's over, Ye's persona has collapsed, turns out he also engages in bullying!】

【Chovy: Familiar, a very familiar feeling...】

【Hoho, Tristana can be solo killed by the Emperor at level 6, someone was bullied on the field, and will continue to be bullied in the next game~~~】

【I think this shitty Tristana is really not as good as OMG's little mid laner, Chovy? More like 'Cry-vy'!】

The atmosphere at the LCK commentary desk could only be described as mourning.

Everyone knew that GEN's composition not only failed to gain the offensive advantage it should have in the early game, but even handed over the crucial Rift Herald fight, which was simply a massive disaster.

But at the critical moment, someone finally stood up.

The director's replay hadn't finished yet when it suddenly cut quickly back to the live feed of the bot lane.

"Hey, they're fighting in the bot lane!"

"But Draven doesn't seem to be level six yet!"

Everyone appeared on the map, and the bot lane became a place completely isolated from the world.

Viper saw the message that the Emperor had completed a counter-kill, and his heart sank in horror.

He knew he had to fight.

Because of his death at level one, Draven hadn't reached level six yet, but precisely because of this, the V5 bot lane duo's positioning was quite aggressive after reaching level six.

But Draven missing one ultimate wasn't fatal to his combat power.

Braum W'd to a minion and auto-attacked the Tahm Kench to trigger the passive, Draven used two spinning axes, quickly coordinating to trigger the stun.

But this usually wouldn't be a profitable trade—because both ADs were hitting the supports, and it was obvious that Tahm Kench, who was enjoying ADC farm, was far tankier than Braum; Draven's damage at this time wasn't enough to threaten Tahm Kench.

However, the moment Tahm Kench was stunned... Braum suddenly started his ultimate, the Glacial Fissure, and unexpectedly Flashed forward to slap Senna in the face, triggering the passive and applying Ignite!

Draven picked up an axe, refreshed 【Blood Rush】 for speed, and a tricky-angled 【Stand Aside】 flew out from the middle, perfectly separating Tahm Kench and Senna, and accelerated for a second time to close in on Senna!

"Flash and swallow me!"

"Don't Flash!"

Deft and Beryl spoke almost simultaneously with the same meaning, showing incredible tacit understanding.

If this were a panicked player, seeing Braum slap them in the face and apply the passive, they would have Flashed backward directly, and Senna would have likely died!

The reason was simple: Tahm Kench had already been knocked back, and if Senna Flashed backward at this moment, the two would be separated by more than two Flash distances!

By then, if Draven followed with a Flash to close in, the extremely fragile Senna wouldn't just fail to create distance, but would be the first to be burst down!

Facts proved this, as Draven rushed up and landed a few axes, Senna's health plummeted visibly into the danger zone.

Deft's details were maxed out; the moment the passive mark triggered, he controlled the timing to cancel the ultimate cast, using the CC state to guide the casting animation of 【Dawnsombra】 to gain the shield.

"Thank goodness, he shouldn't die like this!" Wawa breathed a sigh of relief. Tahm Kench swallowed Senna into the turret, and when she came out, she still had the ultimate shield, safe and sound.

Of course, they couldn't stay under the turret anymore; GEN's bot lane would definitely spare no cost to help Draven cash out, and Senna retreated several meters to recall alone.

But at this moment, Beryl suddenly saw Braum heading to the river, unusually not following Draven to push the wave into the turret...

"Be careful, Brother Hyuk-kyu! Draven might be reaching level six!"

The next moment, a light flashed on Draven, and the dragon-shaped arm guards on his shoulders shone brightly.

He swung his hands forcefully, throwing the snake-shaped giant axes toward the front!

Deft reacted in advance, but the blind-shot giant axe guessed his recall point; he could only decisively Flash upward to dodge, brushing past the deadly giant axe and letting it continue forward.

But the deadly giant axe gained a moment of vision as it passed.

Draven suddenly W-dashed upward, then inexplicably burned an air Flash!

And the recalled 【Whirling Death】 suddenly changed course at the end point, the giant axe of the mythic championship skin flashing with holy golden light, returning in a V-shaped turn!

Deft couldn't see the axe's trajectory change, and by the time it reached his eyes, there was nowhere left to dodge.

The double-headed dragon giant axe fiercely crushed Senna's body, bringing up a sound of gold coins hitting the bag.

"V~~i~~~~per~~~~!!" The Roaring Emperor sat up from a dying dream, his passionate, ultra-long tail note full of emotion.

"This is our double-crowned AD! The true Draven king! Using his own championship skin from last year to secure a kill and cash out an extra bounty of up to 670 gold! One kill worth three!"

"The most core figure has finally risen! GEN is saved!!"

Scout said in a seemingly praising tone: "Deft's condition is really good, he is indeed always this stable, able to carry the game as the team's most core carry every year."

Scout, who wouldn't miss any opportunity to be "sarcastic," didn't even mind dragging himself into it; anyway, it wasn't the first time he'd been called the 'Saint of Thieves'.

【Holy crap, Viper 3!】

【This championship skin is really cool, when can I see my favorite FMVP skin, very urgent.】

【The Saint of Thieves finally admits that year was stolen? Hating to the point of cursing himself, huh!】

【It's time for my favorite 'Believe in Viper' segment again.】

【What's the use, let me ask, Draven as a hero, to put it bluntly, he'll be poked to death before he can even touch the Emperor's leg hair later!】

【That's only if you can play to that point, you don't really think the current Emperor has damage with two items, right? Let's talk after thirty minutes!】

Draven's self-cashing out was undoubtedly a powerful shot in the arm for the LCK audience and the GEN members who were already feeling a bit desperate.

The game, which had already seemed to have no hope, suddenly seemed to have a direction again.

"Sorry, my problem." Deft's voice was slightly self-reproachful.

Ye Bo comforted him nonchalantly: "It's fine, this kind of early game start is already very smooth, it's them who are in a hurry!"

This was indeed a fact.

Looking at the BP, it was obvious that the bot lane was the sacrifice this game; the opponent picking Draven-Braum first, and them picking Tahm Kench-Senna later, was a pure "taking a beating" combo.

If it weren't for the level one, scenes like this should have appeared long ago.

And for V5, being able to get such an advantage in the early game was already an unexpected harvest.

They took the Rift Herald and released it directly in the mid lane for the Emperor to eat the economy.

The second small dragon at 12 minutes was left to GEN.

And Draven's cashing out didn't bring the chain reaction they imagined—in the final analysis, the last wave only leveled the economy and gave the bot lane the initiative.

But the mid lane's lane priority advantage had already declared bankruptcy!

The Emperor bought the mythic item Crown, and was no longer afraid of Tristana in the laning phase; although he still couldn't suppress her because his Q skill level wasn't high enough, the wave-clearing efficiency was already about the same.

Without a numerical advantage, and with TP protection in both top and mid, GEN didn't dare to rashly dive the Senna-Tahm Kench combo.

They could only let Draven slowly push the wave into the turret, slightly consuming the turret's health each wave.

It wasn't until 14 minutes, when the turret plating fell off, that V5 directly abandoned the remaining turret health and let the opponent take the first bot turret.

But it took 14 minutes to barely take one outer turret, and the health of the top and mid turrets was almost full—this was undoubtedly extremely urgent for GEN's offensive rhythm!

At 15 minutes, GEN gathered to take the Herald first, while V5 let the Emperor go to the bot lane alone to push the turret and level up, waiting at least until level 13 with Q and W maxed out before choosing to take a teamfight.

And one of the key uses of the Senna-Tahm Kench combo was revealed—these two could completely avoid eating gold!

The Emperor was effectively eating the minion waves of both mid and bot lanes alone, and his development speed was far faster than imagined.

At 17 minutes, the third small dragon respawned.

GEN, who were usually best at cowering, were clearly a bit anxious during this time because they couldn't find a fight at all.

In the past, it was always them pulling the opponents around... didn't expect it to be their turn to be pulled around today!

"They seem to want to take it?" Peanut's face showed joy: "I can engage on the Emperor! Can you follow?"

Lehends hesitated for a moment: "It's hard to engage on the Emperor with Tahm Kench there, he's been guarding the Emperor the whole time, how about engaging on Tahm Kench?"

"Okay! Viper can move Tahm Kench now, he hasn't eaten any gold!"

The V5 members approached the dragon pit from above the river.

The two carries didn't rush to use their two blue trinkets, preparing to use them to check the health.

"Xun, you can try to steal it this wave, we'll cover you." Ye Bo said.

"It's possible to try, anyway there are no resources, they are already a bit hard to push in~" Beryl also agreed very much.

GEN's composition only had Tristana as a long-range hero, which didn't count for much in front of the Emperor.

The last time they summoned the second Herald, they couldn't even knock down the full-health mid turret, which already proved that the composition's frontal pushing ability was extremely poor; the only thing they could rely on was the key resource fight to force V5 out to fight a frontal teamfight.

Then, as long as they could steal one dragon, they could drag the game time back by 5 minutes!

Even if they didn't steal it, anyway, there were no map resources at this time, and it would be acceptable as long as they didn't get too many people caught.

Wukong crept near the top of the dragon pit alone, preparing to use the blue side's terrain advantage to steal it and fight for the Smite.

The four below walked forward in a neat formation; while Beryl was scanning and clearing wards, he threw a ward with unclear meaning into the opponent's jungle out of habit.

The first blue trinket shone down, the dragon's health dropped by nearly half.

The second blue trinket shone down, the dragon's health was only 2000 left.

Xun turned on the scanner and came to the shore against the wall, not greedy to hit the Blast Cone that likely had defensive awareness, and directly used 【Warrior Trickster】 to stealth down the wall!

But just as he stealthily went down the wall, what he saw were a few people standing against the wall, ready to move.

"Be careful, they seem to be about to engage!"

The vision gained from stealth revealed their intentions without a doubt.

From GEN's perspective, V5's entire team was present, looking like they wanted to take the fight, and once the dragon was taken, the opponent would definitely retreat immediately—compared to the dragon, the benefit of keeping a few more people was clearly higher!

The economic gap between the two sides hadn't widened much until now.

With the Emperor's current equipment development, even if they just dragged it to 20 minutes, they didn't have the confidence that they would definitely win by forcing Baron.

But as long as they could win one teamfight and widen the economic gap, they might be able to force Baron directly at 20 minutes, without even needing the Dragon Soul to force a fight!

At this moment, Sejuani had already Q-dashed out of the thick wall of the dragon pit, throwing her ultimate midway!

The target was pointed directly at Tahm Kench, while preparing to use the ultimate's AoE slow to keep everyone there.

But... a sand soldier suddenly stood in front of Tahm Kench.

"What is Master Ye doing!?"

Seeing the Glacial Prison thrown out in the vision, the Emperor actually flew up to meet it!

The Glacial Prison slammed heavily into the Emperor, freezing him into an ice man—but it failed to restrict the Emperor's movements!

It was the ultra-long EQ two-way return of Shifting Sands.

After taking the prison, the Emperor actually carried the ice all over his body and forcibly "Swallow-returned" back to his original position from far away!

{The control time of Glacial Prison is linked to the flight distance, and it needs to fly at least 30% of the distance to have the second-stage AoE large-range slow. }

But because it was eaten in advance by the Emperor flying into his face, not only was the control time only 1 second, but the distance wasn't enough to trigger the second-stage AoE ice storm!

"Sejuani's ultimate was blocked by the Emperor! Even Braum missed his ultimate... this was fished!"

"What kind of move is this from the Emperor? He's too bold!"

"Wukong is still in the dragon pit! If you can't start a teamfight, you have to watch the dragon!"

The GEN members were stunned for a moment, discovering Wukong who appeared in the rear.

It was obvious that they couldn't keep anyone in the front, Sejuani hurriedly turned her head to try to fight for the Smite, but Xun directly QE'd and used the 1200-damage Primal Smite to kill the dragon instantly, then tanked the damage and walked toward the dragon pit, flashing over the wall at the limit distance after Draven landed three axes!

"Good block, Master Ye, holy crap!"

"Nice, brothers!!"

"Turtle, Xun finally stole a dragon too."

"Hey, Brother Chuan, I'm bad at fighting for Smite, hey hey hey, the one in the backstage! Did you learn it!"

The V5 team voice was full of joy.

While the GEN team voice was dead silent.

"Forget it, let's push the mid turret." Viper said simply.

GEN clearly couldn't swallow this breath; seeing Wukong in extremely poor condition, this wave was a 4-on-5 opportunity, perhaps they could forcibly demolish the mid turret that had been hit by the second Herald.

But V5 saw the opponent's movement on vision.

Ye Bo suddenly sensed an opportunity: "Feels like this position..."

The economic gap between the two sides was close, V5's top, mid, and jungle were all developing excellently; anyway, the bot lane could just be treated as two supports.

More importantly, GEN had used two key control ultimates this wave; if it weren't for Doran's slow reaction, Rumble might have even had his ultimate baited out.

"If we can engage on Draven, we can burst him down, they only have Draven with damage right now!"

Beryl marked frantically on the map: "Brother Shengqiang! There's a ward there!"

He had a habit of placing a ward in the rear of the opponent's jungle when clearing wards, which happened to be in the blind spot of the GEN members' vision...

If it were a frontal confrontation, with Tristana, Braum, and Sejuani all having counter-engage, the entry heroes on V5's side wouldn't be able to get close to Draven smoothly at all, and could only rely on the Emperor's long-range poking.

But at this moment, Wukong's low health and V5's entire team retreating made GEN completely unprepared.

This was a fleeting opportunity!

Gnar returned to the turret, Q'd the jungle monsters through the wall to heat up, accurately entered the Rage state, and TP'd to the rear ward.

"There's a flank TP! There's a flank TP!!!" The Roaring Emperor screamed on the stage in a hurry.

"Can they flank this? Can they fight this?" Scout was full of doubt: "Who is giving random commands on V5, missing two ultimates doesn't have much impact, but Wukong will be one-shot the moment he enters with that health!"

"Unless they can burst Draven... but V5 doesn't have much burst right now." ShowMaker was also a bit confused.

The GEN members didn't notice at first, and the landed little Gnar had already used the TP speed boost to approach.

But accidents were ultimately unavoidable.

Viper knew the heavy burden of his pressure this game, was always extremely careful about his positioning, and paid great attention to the people on the opposite side who could engage on him.

Especially his old teammate, he had clearly witnessed the engagement ability of Ye Bo's Emperor!

At this moment, he suddenly noticed the Emperor positioning forward, and instantly became vigilant... as a result, he suddenly noticed that the opponent seemed to be missing one person, who was also his old teammate.

Where's Gnar!?

"Watch out for Gnar!"

Just as Viper finished shouting, the big Gnar who had flanked had already walked out of the passage in front of their first turret!

But the positioning of the five GEN members, who were originally slightly close to the wall, had instantly stood together toward the middle road, not giving Gnar a chance to slap them into the wall.

Whether Gnar's ultimate slaps into the wall or not are two different skills.

If it doesn't slap into the wall, there's only knockback without extra control—but if it slaps into the wall, there's an extra 1.75-second stun, plus doubled critical damage!

"They seem a bit disconnected! We can kill Gnar first!"

"Watch the entry! Tristana has to push the Emperor away..."

Just as everyone was shouting commands, Gnar suddenly made a move that was completely "unpredictable."

The reason it's called unpredictable is because the position everyone was standing in looked very safe, and it was impossible for Gnar to slap them into the wall—and if he just slapped them back, it would actually be equivalent to helping the five GEN members "Flash into their faces."

They could fight face-to-face as soon as they landed!

Think about it, Gnar slapping five people into the faces of the Emperor and Senna, wouldn't they instantly die and hurt their teammates?

But Gnar really did slap them back.

Flash R 【GNAR!】 The giant palm swept all five back.

Meanwhile, Shifting Sands followed by an aerial Flash was done in one go, the Emperor's figure flashed forward twice in the air, pushing out a "Back-facing Ultimate" in reverse!

It must be a back-facing R, because {the Phalanx appears starting from behind the Emperor}.

And that 【Phalanx】 that instantly appeared three inches behind the Emperor—"caught" the five people who were slapped back from the air!

The Phalanx is also a wall.

Even more terrifying is...

The five figures, covered in {Critical} and {Stun} marks, were being carried by the Phalanx all the way from the starting point to the end point!

It was actually crossing nearly 2500 yards from behind the mid-lane minion wave, as if they had switched from a bus to a Boeing airplane, and were "transported" all the way under V5's first turret!!!

At the same time, they truly arrived at their destination.

If Gnar's ultimate skill is the Tathagata Palm.

Then this wave is called "Double Phalanx Tathagata Palm"!

The five landed, with the {Stun} still hanging over their heads for 1.5 seconds, unable to move.

Wukong stepped forward to Cyclone, cosplaying Malphite, Tahm Kench followed with Abyssal Dive, cosplaying the second Malphite, treating the five GEN members like a dish and frantically "shaking the spoon" on the spot!

The scene instantly erupted into thunderous screams!

"What the hell!!!" The Roaring Emperor leaned forward exaggeratedly, completely unable to believe his eyes.

"Pizza!!!!"

Not just him.

At this moment, all the broadcast live streams were filled with the unbelievable roars of the commentators!

"Explosion! GEN is going to explode!!" Wawa tore his vocal cords with all his might.

Miller clenched his fists and howled loudly: "Soul Fusion Technique! It's Master Ye and Brother Shengqiang's Soul Fusion Technique again! And it's the Emperor again!!"

"This is the real Emperor!"

Countless viewers couldn't believe their eyes, their gazes filled with disbelief.

The cheers in the audience rose and fell, evolving into a mountain torrent and tsunami in the blink of an eye.

A zero-for-five trade, an operation with almost no room for error, left the originally stalemate situation with no room for maneuver.

And the V5 player area under the camera instantly presented a scene of jubilation!

"Awesome!!!!!"

"Badass!"

"Director Chuan!! Get ready to come out and pick people up!!"

"This is the bond between Brother and Master Ye!"

The GEN player area on the other side looked like it had no life left.

Viper covered his forehead in slight despair... he remembered the last time this scene appeared, it seemed to be on his side.

The following time had basically entered a countdown.

The biggest problem with GEN this game was the composition construction—the composition selection wasn't extreme enough, which was one of the reasons why they couldn't break through with a strong attack.

If the top laner wasn't Rumble who needed development, and the jungler was changed to a more aggressive fighting hero, even if they were economically disadvantaged, they could still fight and gamble based on the composition—this was also a characteristic of the "Ultraman Composition."

But a composition like GEN's, which wanted everything and wanted to take care of everything, would eventually lead to everything being just a bit short!

Not to mention that they were already at a disadvantage in the early game...

At 22 minutes, the Emperor got his three-item core and began to transform into the true Emperor of the Rift.

GEN's composition looked scientific, but in reality, it was also very difficult to touch the Emperor with Tahm Kench's protection; basically, they could only be poked, and it would only get harder to fight!

Accompanied by the terrifying fluorescent light flashing on the tip of the Emperor's staff, a Rabadon's Deathcap, like the crown of a true emperor ascending the throne, truly displayed the name of the Desert Emperor!

The game finally froze at 27 minutes and 27 seconds.

GEN's main crystal exploded with fireworks!
