Chapter 308: Demolished Turret In 3 Minutes!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bai Feng: captain and ADC of Team Revelation, the player recognized as the strongest ADC in the country!

Individual ability index: 8.1 points

Team-fighting capabilities: 8.4 points

Tactical and leadership index: 8.3 points

Skill and dexterity index: 1.0

Hao Yue: Team Revelation’s Jungler.

Individual ability index: 7.2 points

Team-fighting capabilities: 7.3 points

Tactical and leadership index: 8.0 points

Skill and dexterity index: 0.9

Of Team Revelation’s two strongest players, Bai Feng was undoubtedly the first. With him at the bottom lane, you could rest assured that even if Jungler and Mid came down, Bai Feng would be able to handle it.

And Hao Yue’s Jungler capabilities also surpassed many of the LPL players. Even if the other members in Team Revelation weren’t above 6.0 points, the key to Team Revelation’s consistent placement in the top four was their team-fighting capabilities and tactical game plays.

Bai Feng’s overall ability index came up to 23.8 points, whereas Hao Yue’s overall ability index came up to 22.5 points.

That was higher than the other members of Team Revelation by at least 4 to 5 points.

As for Team Skycrown, Zhang Aijing estimated that their overall ability index was between 18 to 19 points.

According to Zhang Aijing’s calculations, Xiao Bei was the only one to exceed 20 points, with a total of around 21 points. However, if he were to go against Bai Feng who was at 23.8 points, there wasn’t a big chance of winning.

Now it was Yu Luocheng who was playing. Even if his overall points were higher than Bai Feng’s, Team Revelation still had a Jungler with 22.5 points. There would still be a difference of at least 4 points between him and Zhou Yan!

These 4 points would be enough to affect the outcome of a confrontation, and that’s without even taking the other members of Team Revelation into consideration yet.

In other words, if Team Skycrown wanted to defeat Team Revelation, one of the only ways they could achieve that outcome was for Yu Luocheng to wreck Bai Feng!

“Bai Feng, will you be so easily wrecked?” said Forgetful Laughter who was looking at the book in Zhang Aijing’s hand.

In such a short amount of time, Zhang Aijing had already calculated the probability of the match between Team Revelation and Team Skycrown. She had also roughly estimated what Team Skycrown needed to do if they wanted to have a chance of winning.

“I’ve not seen anyone who can beat him at this stage,” replied Zhang Aijing.

“Me too. I’ve only heard that he was defeated by a pro player in the US server, but never in the domestic servers…” said Forgetful Laughter.

“So the probability of Team Skycrown winning is…” Zhang Aijing smiled slightly, tapping on the screen in her hands.

The audience’s support vote rate popped up on the screen, and astonishingly the support for Team Revelation was as high as ninety-six percent, while Team Skycrown only had four percent of the votes!

Forgetful Laughter was also stunned by the results, the difference in ratio was too great. His eyes turned to Zhang Aijing’s book and found that the final data she analyzed was also at four percent!

A four percent chance of winning, that was practically having none at all!

“Isn’t this a bit too low?” said Forgetful Laughter.

“This computation was with Xiao Bei in the calculation, if I put Fighting Hawk in instead…”

Forgetful Laugher watched as it was recomputed, and the rate changed, going up to twenty two percent!

“It’s still only about twenty percent?” said Forgetful Laughter.

“League of Legends is a five player game, one strong person would only slightly increase the win rate, he can’t possibly save the world alone. Going by their ability index, Fighting Hawk will end up in a stalemate with Bai Feng. If the bottom lane is a draw, Hao Yue, Team Revelation’s Jungler, will be able to carry the team. So Team Skycrown will face a problem there. Team Revelation still has the bigger advantage and this will result in their win.”

“Alright. I’m hoping that the game won’t go according to your prediction. Otherwise, it’s going to be such a boring match.”

“It’s started, pay attention.”

***

As the game started, Wu Sen’s Soraka bought her items and followed the team out of their base. They would definitely not engage in a level one team fight, everyone would just protect Wu Sen as he planted the wards.

These few wards were basically their main vision sight. One was to monitor the Jungler’s movement and the other was to see if there was any lane swap going on.

“Team Skycrown is being very careful as they step into the jungle, it’s obvious that they’re trying to avoid letting their opponent see their movements. Hey, why is Soraka suddenly going back towards the middle lane…”

The match just started and something strange was already happening!

When the minion wave appeared, Soraka started heading towards the middle lane, and this puzzled a lot of people.

“Are they swapping lanes, with two people at the middle lane? No wonder they’re not afraid of Bai Feng’s ADC, their plan is to completely avoid him in the beginning. Caitlyn and Soraka will go directly to the middle lane and let Bai Feng farm at bottom,” said Miracle as he studied the screen.

“It doesn’t look like it. Don’t you see that Team Skycrown’s coach is still at the bottom lane? The only one heading to the middle lane is Soraka. It doesn’t look like Malzahar has any intention of going to the bottom lane either,” said Qi Qiao.

Lin Dong had chosen a champion that was rarely seen in competitions—Malzahar, The Prophet Of The Void.

What were Annie, Zyra, and LeBlanc’s abilities compared to the instant kill champion recognized by the Youth Team?

***

“Wow, what did I just see? Did Soraka release Starcall?!” exclaimed Miracle suddenly.

The shower of stars falling from the sky was Soraka’s signature kill. However, experienced gamers also know that it was a waste to add this skill at the beginning of the game.

That’s right, when you are a ranked player and realize that Soraka had added this skill right from the start, you would be certain that the player was a little kid!

But…

In the LPL, a Soraka who added Q—Starcall as their first skill—has appeared!

“Wu Sen, in such a high tension and decisive competition, you actually added the wrong skill! Aren’t you afraid of getting scolded?!”

A debate started around the stage. The Support had gone to the middle lane to assist the Mid, and even spectacularly exposed the fact that he had added the wrong skill in the beginning…

Whoever said that you really can’t guess the thoughts of someone with a combat effectiveness of 2,000 and rank points of above 2,000 was totally spot on!

***

As the shower of stars fell, you could see streaks of yellow and blue lights falling onto the creeps around Soraka. Mad Star, Team Revelation’s Mid, was utterly confused. What the hell are you doing Soraka? Can you just go back to your Caitlyn and start healing her already?

Call of the Void!

Lin Dong’s Malzahar raised his hands and summoned two orbs. Energy leaped out between them, forming a flat leaf shape.

As Starcall and Call of the Void were released simultaneously, the minion wave was effortlessly pushed back! Team Revelation’s Ryze was forced back to his turret, and he could only helplessly throw out his skills as he tried to take on the wave of minions.

But the cooldown on Ryze’s skills in early game took quite a while. His basic attack was also low, not to mention that his CS was always missing too due to those reasons.

Mad Star cursed.

“What the hell, they just keep brainlessly pushing? Two of you are sharing experience huh… wait till I level up, what will you hit then?”

***

Team Skycrown kept using the same tactic. Every time the minion wave reached the middle of the lane, Wu Sen and Lin Dong would use Starcall and Call of the Void at the same time, easily clearing the wave of minions. After that, they would ignore Ryza and instead head straight for the middle lane turret.

As one minion wave has six minions, the middle lane turret was already missing one fourth of its health after just two waves.

Checking the time, Wu Sen called out to Zhou Yan, their Jungler, “We’re almost at the three-minute mark!”

“Noted!” Zhou Yan, who was playing Lee Sin called back.

“Okay!” Da Luo nodded his head in acknowledgement too.

***

First Blood!

Suddenly, the call of First Blood came from the top lane!

“Aiyah, Team Skycrown’s top lane was not careful enough. This is the exact timing when the opponent Jungler had just completed both buffs. Without the presence of their own Jungler, he actually dared to push the lane forward so much… isn’t he just serving his head up on a silver platter?” Miracle chimed in with his criticism again.

In just three minutes, Da Luo had thrown away the precious First Blood.

Team Skycrown watched Da Luo die but they didn’t feel frustrated at all, and instead smiled in glee!

“Hurry up and look at the middle lane!” exclaimed Qi Qiao.

With Da Luo being ganked at the top lane, the camera naturally focused there. However at this time, those looking at the mini map would be able to see that Team Skycrown suddenly had three champions at the middle lane!

Soraka, Lee Sin, and Malzahar.

These three champions all had AoE skills, and each one of them was able to easily clear the minion wave. Once they did that, they rushed towards the turret while leading both a cannon minion and a wave of minions!

“Oh my gosh, what is Team Skycrown doing?!” Miracle gasped, staring at the middle lane.

The three of them gathered in the middle lane, pushing the minion wave under turret and ignoring Ryze as they ruthlessly attacked the turret!

Mad Star suddenly realized that their objective was to quickly push the middle lane turret and immediately exhausted all his skills trying to bring the cannon minion down.

The cannon minion dealt substantial damage to the turret, and with its higher health, it was also able to take quite a lot of damage from the turret in return.

Taking down the cannon minion was Team Revelation’s only hope of stopping Team Skycrown from getting the turret!

“You wanna kill my cannon? No way!” Wu Sen laughed as he pressed the W key, activating Astral Blessing on the minion.

Ryze only had a sparse number of skills in early game and the damage he could deliver was limited. With Wu Sen’s healing, the cannon minion’s health was restored!

Cannon minion, melee minion, ranged minion, Malzahar’s voidlings, Lee Sin, Malzahar, and Soraka…

This horrifying team was like a hot knife on butter—there was nothing stopping them from taking down the middle lane!

The game hadn’t even hit the three-and-a-half-minute mark yet!

And a turret had been taken down!

This speed and efficiency…

***

“Taking advantage of the cannon minion which appears every three waves, they sped up the push at the middle lane! Using Soraka’s Q to clear the minion wave, healing and blessing the cannon minion, and using Malzahar’s clear and voidlings …” Zhang Aijing was startled at what she was witnessing.

How was this possible?

Taking advantage of these champions who could easily clear the lane in early game, plus using the cannon minion which everyone treated as mere experience and money in the lane to aim directly for the key middle lane turret!

Was this a fast push tactic?

Which fast push tactic was this bloody amazing?

A turret was down in less than three minutes, you wouldn’t see that happening so fast even when playing against A.I!
