Chapter 83: How Deep Is Unreal’s Champion Pool?
Li Fan’s Ryze returned to base to update equipment, then Teleported back to lane.
Due to Card dying once and using both summoner spells, Xi Ye’s laning became even more cautious, not to mention the equipment gap, so line priority was firmly controlled by Li Fan.
Clearlove set up vision near Mid Lane, both protecting Ryze’s push and spotting Lee Sin’s possible movements.
In this situation, Li Fan could push the Minion Wave in without too much pressure.
“Card has no Flash no Cleanse, I have line priority, I can move first.” Li Fan said in voice chat, then quickly pushed the Minion Wave into WE’s Mid Lane Tower 1.
Then disappeared from Mid Lane.
On the way to Top Lane, he didn’t forget to warn the Bot Lane duo.
“If the enemy reacts, they might four-man gank you two, as soon as Mid Lane Card disappears, you Bot Lane duo just run.”
“Don’t worry, our Bot Lane will absolutely be fine.” meiko replied.
With this opening, as long as Mid and Jungle get the rhythm rolling, their Bot Lane can just lie down and win.
Such a good opportunity, if they can’t even lie down properly, that would be unforgivable.
WE suffered badly from Taliyah in the previous game, so by first feeling, they still thought Li Fan was baiting.
Ryze without level 6 has very low gank efficiency.
But Xi Ye still pinged Mid Lane as usual.
WE’s Top and Bot Lanes slightly retreated from suppression, but didn’t fully retreat.
Especially Bot Lane, because Lee Sin was in Bot Lane, in this situation even if the enemy comes they could easily retreat.
But after seven or eight seconds, Xi Ye who was still controlling the line sensed something off.
Why hasn’t Unreal’s Ryze come out?
Where is he?
Bot Lane duo has Lee Sin protection, no need to rush in this situation.
So he hurriedly pinged Top Lane.
“Legge, run fast!”
957 had already sensed something wrong when Xi Ye said Ryze was missing, but running at this point was already too late.
From the god view, Ryze and Excavator had already cut off the retreat from the river position.
mouse Flash Asian Bind without hesitation.
957 knew EDG’s three had crowd control, dodging with E skill wouldn’t help much… but not dodging would mean taking full control and more damage.
Helplessly still used E skill to dodge.
But then Excavator knocked him up.
Next was the three big men madly surrounding and attacking.
Fizz has no Flash, brought Ignite to absolutely suppress.
In this situation, no worry about Legge Flashing to run.
“Li Fan, take it.” Clearlove shouted in voice, earlier he took First Blood, Maokai as a tank taking kills, now perfect to give a kill to Mid Lane Ryze.
mouse didn’t need Clearlove to say, already pressed S key.
Li Fan followed with Q skill Overload, successfully taking the kill.
Legge was utterly desperate, what can you do against three-man gank?
These three heroes, no way to struggle.
“Beautiful, EDG’s Mid Jungle linkage really caught them off guard, decision very correct, also restricted Fizz’s development, mid-late game dual core no such big pressure.”
“WE reacted and now rushing to Bot Lane, but Card has no Ultimate Skill, this move speed seems a bit slow.”
“Ryze has no Teleport, can’t support down either, although a bit slow if they can arrive it’s still possible to four-man gank two…”
“Huh?”
“They ran, EDG Bot Lane duo directly gave up the two Minion Waves under tower, so decisive!”
Camera to zet… corners of mouth slightly upturned.
Want to gank me?
Won’t even give you the chance!
Varus missed a big Minion Wave, but overall EDG still profited more.
Xi Ye and Kang Di ran for nothing, expressions a bit stiff.
EDG’s offensive didn’t stop because of Bot Lane, instead surged like tides one wave after another.
Match time to six minutes forty-seven seconds.
Kang Di’s Lee Sin tried entering their own bottom Jungle to take the refreshed red Buff, to supplement his slightly lagging development.
However, his every move was already clearly seen by Clearlove’s prior vision.
Li Fan directly pinged on the minimap.
“I have line priority I have Ultimate Skill, I can arrive first!”
Clearlove hearing this had more confidence, controlled Excavator to dive into the Jungle.
Just as Lee Sin brought red Buff to half health, Clearlove’s Excavator tunneled from behind the wall, precise Underground emerged knocking up Lee Sin, while Smite tried to steal red Buff!
“Stole it!” The three commentators shouted in unison.
Kang Di’s heart startled, done for!
A huge blue runic array suddenly unfolded under Excavator and Lee Sin!
Ryze ulted!
“Ryze ulted! Unreal supporting Clearlove invading Jungle.” Wa Wa exclaimed.
“Save me!” Kang Di urgently called in voice.
Xi Ye’s Card was pinned under tower by a Minion Wave, seeing the Jungle skirmish, anxious as fire.
If not go, Lee Sin dies for sure, Jungle completely lost, if go, this wave of tower last hits all lost.
Again fell into choice…
But still pressed Ultimate Skill Destiny.
“Xi Ye ulted and flew! To save Lee Sin!”
An Ultimate Skill flew to the focused Lee Sin, landing instant gold card stunned Ryze, covering Kang Di’s retreat.
“Wow! Xi Ye this wave… although saved Lee Sin, but took too much damage! All tower minions gone!” Miller’s tone full of regret.
“But Clearlove didn’t leave here and went to Bot Lane, WE Bot Lane duo forced back, turned to control Dragon, rhythm great!”
No suspense, EDG steadily took first Fire Drake!
“Fire Drake gone… WE having hard time accepting this.” Miller said, “Originally Bot Lane had laning advantage, controlling this Dragon could solidify advantage, but now instead taken by EDG.”
“Xi Ye to save Jungle, lost full two Minion Waves, Mid Lane gap getting bigger, feels like they playing very messy.”
Director again gave shot to Li Fan fan group.
Yu Luo excitedly shook the CF buff guy beside him: “See that! This is rhythm! Can’t win lane, can’t win roams! How can our Unreal lose!”
Similarly live stream room started spamming question marks wildly.
WE as Group B First Place, these two games played like LGD with team name covered.
Played way too ridiculously.
But for director crazily giving Yu Luo shots, these people had words too, since can’t attack Li Fan, fully can attack others.
【Damn, director is Unreal fan right? So braindead always giving them shots?】
【Done, when did LPL staff become fan circle fans?】
【This director purebred shill, loves bringing rhythm!】
WE after Jungle collapse and Fire Drake loss, situation sharply turned, from small disadvantage into full big disadvantage.
Mid Lane, Xi Ye’s Card Master days increasingly tough.
Li Fan’s Ryze equipment already leading, just splash damage could shave off Card a big chunk of health.
One or two waves down, Xi Ye’s health visibly dropped half, forcing him to frequently use skills for distant last hits, even stepping up for experience cautiously.
Jungle completely became Clearlove’s backyard.
Kang Di’s Lee Sin with level and equipment behind Excavator, upon meeting could only path around.
Clearlove’s Excavator with radar-like sense and vision control, constantly counter jungling setting vision, devoured WE’s Jungle resources.
Radar bro back! Little piglets very excited.
Your Jungle our Clearlove raising pigs!
Match time nine minutes, EDG offensive returns.
Li Fan’s Ryze and Clearlove’s Excavator openly moved toward Bot Lane, advantage big enough to play openly.
WE Bot Lane duo noticed early, but facing four-man pressure, powerless to defend Bot Lane Tower 1, even forcing stay under Turret has risk of tower dive kill.
So meiko’s Maokai stepped forward, WE’s Ashe and Karma could only retreat to depressed bush before tower 2.
No resistance, EDG four easily took down WE’s Bot Lane Tower 1.
Tower 1 economy shared by team, EDG economic advantage further expanded.
“Bot Lane Tower 1 gone, WE’s Bot Lane laning advantage completely gone, and EDG can start lane swap operations.” Miller’s tone with worry for WE.
Merely two-plus minutes later, time to eleven minutes thirty, EDG’s rhythm showed no sign of stopping.
Clearly while you’re sick, hit you to death.
Bot Lane freed meiko’s Maokai started roaming, cooperating with Clearlove again entering WE’s top Jungle, target straight to Top Lane Fizz.
WE thought of it, defense came very timely.
But when Ryze Teleported down that moment, like war god.
Spell machine gun combo directly instakilled Ashe on spot!
WE lost wife and soldier, originally might only die Fizz, result also gave Ashe and Lee Sin.
Top Lane Tower 1 smoothly pushed, both sides economic gap pulled to six thousand!
Live stream Bullet Comments completely exploded:
【GG!】
【What is WE playing?】
【Being treated like bots?】
【This Mid Jungle gap too big right?】
【Unreal really fierce!】
【Director stop cutting audience! Watch match!】
Majority audience shocked by EDG’s flowing seamless offensive rhythm.
If EDG’s previous two teams were weak, how much gold content does WE team name have?
Different now, really different.
Continuous deaths and resource losses, WE players’ expressions increasingly grave, team voice chat exchanges became sparse.
Autism is start of losing match.
Hong Mi coach in backstage watching screen, brows tight, Unreal this guy exactly what monster popped out from where?
Damn it!
Seeing Unreal’s Ryze again combo instakill frontlining Card.
Hong Mi this time really couldn’t hold it.
Why gap so big?
Xi Ye always his capable general.
But today dazed and confused, making him a bit unclear what happened.
Defeat like mountain collapse…
Match to sixteen minutes, WE’s six outer towers all pushed.
Originally horror game, now minimap pitch black.
Huge economic disadvantage and vision suppression turned WE’s Jungle into dangerous minefield.
Match time to seventeen minutes.
Kang Di’s Lee Sin cautiously entered own bottom Jungle, trying to take soon-refreshing slime frog, his last remaining development source.
However, just as he Sonic Wave’d the slime frog, from side shadow, a rune-energy bald big head suddenly appeared!
It’s Li Fan’s Ryze!
No time for Kang Di to react, Ryze’s QEW Runic Binding already out, rooting him in place!
Then, storm-like combo poured down.
Spell machine gun’s terrifying damage fully shown this moment!
A severely underdeveloped Lee Sin, before near-explosion developed Ryze, fragile as paper!
Kang Di’s screen instantly black and white!
“Unreal! Lee Sin instakilled! Damage way too high, to now can’t even understand!” Wa Wa’s voice full of shock.
“Legendary!”
Godlike alert majestically echoed entire Summoner’s Rift, heavily hitting every WE player.
8-0-3!
Godlike bald big Ryze!
Sure enough bald is strongest…
“Godlike… Unreal player in this key showdown achieved godlike! His Ryze now a big BOSS!” Miller marveled.
“WE now sees Ryze must run, no one can tank his combo.” Rita added.
Live stream Bullet Comments welcomed new explosion:
【Monster!】
【What damage is this?】
【Game over!】
【WE surrender soon, don’t torture.】
【Congrats EDG!】
【This Ryze, damn!】
【Though this fan a bit silly, Unreal real C!】
Next three minutes became WE’s torment time.
EDG didn’t rush to end match, instead started suffocating farm rhythm.
With huge vision advantage, WE crowd could only shrink near high ground, even going out to clear line needed to go together, afraid of being melted instantly by Ryze or others popping from nowhere.
Economic difference like snowball rolled bigger, soon broke ten thousand mark.
Match time twenty minutes, Baron Nashor just refreshed.
EDG directly started Baron Nashor.
WE tried last struggle, Kang Di’s Lee Sin wanted to attempt steal Dragon.
But just as he neared pit, Maokai like door god knocked out, directly knocked him flying, no operation space.
Clearlove’s Excavator steadily Smitd Baron Nashor.
“EDG took Baron Nashor! Game completely no suspense!” Miller at this moment sentenced WE to death.
Coming to steal Baron Nashor Lee Sin also couldn’t escape screen black fate.
Took it EDG all returned to base update equipment, then pushed from Mid Lane.
Facing EDG’s five-man push, WE’s wave clear in huge equipment gap appeared pale and powerless.
WE symbolically resisted a bit, but after Li Fan’s Ryze Flash combo with teammates instakilled Mystic’s Ashe, WE others successively killed.
Ace!
Match time froze at 22:01.
WE’s Base once again exploded!
“Victory!”
Victory sound effect rang again for EDG!
“Congrats to EDG, two to zero beat powerful WE, sweeping three straight wins! Also ended WE’s win streak!” Wa Wa loudly announced.
“Today’s EDG, especially Mid Jungle Unreal and Clearlove, showed us perfect rhythm suppression! Two games, both crushing! Especially second game, almost no fluctuations, leading from start to end… EDG Mid Jungle current state really chilling.” Miller summarized.
“Yes Unreal player two games two different heroes, both MVP level performance, he undoubtedly today’s brightest star! Champion Pool now also a mystery, Unreal his Champion Pool exactly how deep?” Rita smiled.
