178: Chapter 178 Memorable Scene: Now That's Real Support!
"It's here, it's here, it's finally here!"
"Are they actually going to pull off a reverse sweep? This is too exciting."
"Regardless of whether they pull off a reverse sweep, I'll definitely keep watching this league of legends tournament later on. It's too brilliant. The players were just nervous and didn't perform well in the first two games."
"No matter who wins, the hype for this match is definitely maxed out."
At this moment.
As the match officially began.
Countless bullet comments began scrolling across various live streams, and compared to the first two games, the content of these comments had undergone an earth-shattering change.
In the first two games, hardly anyone was looking forward to this so-called esports competition, but now, all the bullet comments were focused on the match itself, cheering for both teams.
Furthermore.
Right from the start of this fifth game, both sides showed changes different from the previous four. Instead of taking standard positions, they both grouped up, intending to invade the opponent's jungle!
However, what was interesting was...
This time.
Although both sides chose to invade the jungle, their chosen routes were somewhat different. A Shui Team invaded from the mid lane down to the river, while Uzi Team invaded from the bottom lane river.
The two sides just happened to miss each other, entering the opponent's jungle.
Watching this highly dramatic scene, both the viewers in the bullet comments and the commentators couldn't help but lose their composure.
"Grouping up right from the start—I thought both sides would be a bit more cautious at the beginning of this fifth game. I didn't expect them to be so aggressive right away; both sides are very confident."
"But for them to miss each other like that... now both sides are camping in the opponent's jungle, and it's unclear if they've discovered each other's tracks."
"A Shui Team placed a ward and is getting ready to leave. It looks like they don't intend to force an invade; after all, they don't know the opponent's position. Clearlove still plans to start farming from his own jungle, but Uzi Team is still camping!"
"This is looking bad. Uzi Team's vision has already spotted Clearlove in the river, but Brother Hu and Zz1tai have already left. Only the bot lane is with Clearlove—something is about to happen."
The very next second after the commentator finished speaking.
The Jarvan IV, who had just returned to his own jungle, had only just placed a ward in the bush when the more patient five members of Uzi Team all jumped out at once to burst him down.
Even with the bot lane duo right next to him, it was of no use; after all, there were five people on the opposing side!
First Blood!
Knowing death was inevitable and having no good position to Flash away, Clearlove was caught and killed while saving his Flash, and the bot lane duo's Support, Fatty, couldn't get away either.
In this exchange, the Support and the Jungler, along with the bottom jungle area, were all taken by Uzi Team.
This level-one team fight strategy indeed put A Shui Team at a huge disadvantage; one could even say they had already lost half the game with this start.
"It's fine, keep your cool. Our team composition is very strong in team fights, everyone stay sharp."
The voice of A-Shui, who was heading back to the bot lane with the Support after recalling, rang out in his teammates' headsets.
Although the level-one team fight had collapsed, the tone of everyone on the team showed no signs of defeat; instead, one could hear an even more intense fighting spirit.
"One of the two games we won relied on A-Shui's surprise tactics, where the economy and the situation were back and forth, and the other was a complete stomp. So for this game, let's show them a desperate comeback!"
"It's just First Blood, no big deal."
"I've been annoyed with the opposing team for a long time; we can definitely take this game!"
"Interesting, interesting. They actually dared to invade my jungle."
Listening to his teammates, each more confident than the last, the corners of A-Shui's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
No matter if they eventually won this game or not, A-Shui had a premonition that they would still make it to the end. At worst, they would just fight their way up from the losers' bracket!
Meanwhile, after the level-one team fight ended, as expected, A Shui Team's bot lane was almost unable to stay in the lane. It should be noted that the First Blood was taken by Uzi, and with the advantage in the jungle, the top and mid lanes also began to feel the pressure.
The key was that the members of Uzi Team were in their best form of all five games. They didn't slack off because of the huge early-game advantage and continued to play quite cautiously.
Although no kills broke out in the following minutes, Uzi Team's economic advantage continued to grow due to the pressure.
"Both sides are in peak form this game, and neither has made any mistakes."
"However, from the current situation, Uzi Team's economic lead is getting bigger and bigger. If A Shui Team wants to play it safe, they will have to give up the next two dragons."
"Judging by A Shui Team's state, I think they might want to fight for it, but Uzi Team probably won't give them the chance to contest the dragon."
Just as Colonel Guan was about to analyze the situation further, he suddenly saw that the Junglers from both sides were gathering towards the bot lane for this dragon.
Uzi Team's Jungler circled around, looking like he wanted to pull off a gank.
But in a place unseen by their vision, Clearlove seemed to have anticipated it and had already ambushed in the bottom lane bush. The situation was on the verge of exploding.
"This is going to be a 3v3, but A Shui Team's equipment is a bit lacking, making it hard to fight."
"But they must have anticipated the route of the opposing Xin Zhao, so this counter-gank has a chance to catch the opponent by surprise."
"A-Shui is baiting, his position is a bit too far forward. Xin Zhao, Xin Zhao is going in!"
"Clearlove flashes and uses E-Q to adjust his path, knocking up three people! This fight is winnable!"
"Wait, everyone else is Teleporting!"
At this moment, in the game screen, the instant Xin Zhao made his move and Jarvan IV made his move, four beams of light descended from the sky, landing on different minions for both sides.
The sound effect of Teleport played simultaneously.
At this moment, while the two sides were fighting in the bottom lane, the top laners and Mid laners from both sides chose to Teleport at the same time. Four beams of light lit up with almost no hesitation!
It should be noted that Qin Mo had not modified the Teleport in the current game, so it could still be used to Teleport to wards and minions in the early game, although there were scenes of Teleport Support in the first two games as well.
But this time, it was four Teleports lighting up simultaneously from both sides! The visual impact of the match was explosive!
"They're Teleporting, four Teleports!"
"Uzi flashed out, he wasn't killed, and his movement dodged Rakan's W, Grand Entrance. How did he dodge that!"
"In the chaotic fight, A-Shui actually dodged Alistar's Q-Flash and is still dealing damage!"
"The other four have already landed; this is a 5v5 team fight!"
"Too tanky! Xin Zhao's economy lead is too big; A Shui Team can't deal with it. They have to retreat into the tower, preparing to disengage, but Uzi Team is still chasing—they're straight-up tower diving!"
"The top and mid were instantly killed. Can they get a counter-kill? A-Shui traded his life for the opposing Alistar. The defensive tower is still firing. Ten HP! Two people survived with ten HP! This time, the Goddess of Luck is standing behind Uzi Team!"
Activating his ultimate, Alistar stood in front alone, entering the tower. Relying on their economic and equipment advantage, Uzi Team quickly killed three members of A Shui Team.
Even with the help of the defensive tower, A-Shui killed Alistar, but this fight was already lost.
In the end, Uzi Team traded one for three. While pushing down the bottom defensive tower, they turned back and took the dragon, widening the economic advantage once again!
However, although this team fight was won by Uzi Team, the operations of all ten people just now were almost perfect. Almost no one made any mistakes; A Shui Team only lost due to equipment and economy.
Plus the scene of four Teleports appearing at once—after this team fight ended, the number of bullet comments exploded completely.
"The gods have returned. The scene of four Teleports landing together is too exaggerated."
"Is this a high-level game? Four Teleports and not a single person hesitated."
"The key is that the operations from both sides were too exaggerated. In the chaotic fight, there was no one who made an operational error. Uzi Team was also lucky; two people ran away with ten HP left, otherwise it would have been a three-for-three trade."
"But after this exchange, A Shui Team is likely doomed. The first tower and the dragon are gone, and combined with the early-game disadvantage, this game is going to be very difficult."
In the game, even though Uzi Team had gained a huge advantage, they still didn't reveal any flaws and continued to play steadily.
During this period, although both sides caught and killed each other's side laners, it didn't have much impact on the situation, and the economic gap continued to be widened by Uzi Team.
A Shui Team did not approach the first Baron Nashor and gave it up directly.
After taking the first Baron Nashor at twenty-plus minutes, Uzi Team's push was the most cautious of the five games. Using the Baron buff, after pushing down all the outer towers, they only forced the mid lane inhibitor before returning to base to resupply.
Even though A Shui Team wanted to find an opportunity, facing such a cautious Uzi Team this game, they couldn't think of any way and could only drag the game out.
When the time reached twenty-nine minutes, the economic gap between the two sides had reached ten thousand!
