Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As expected, Sona Flashed. This Flash helped her to narrowly escape the deadly pin by Vayne, for if it had connected, then nothing could have saved Sona from certain death. After escaping, cold sweat formed on Sona. It was obvious that she now felt the powerful pressure from the opponent robot.

For some people that used Blitzcrank, he turned out to be a cumbersome machine, mainly for tanking damage. However, there were a few who were able to make him a strong presence in the battlefield!

The ones who really knew how to play would position themselves at just one spot, and even if they didn’t move, their presence would be like a mountain. This would make the opponent’s ADC unable to farm consistently. Sona was a pro Support, thus, she could definitely feel the strong presence of Blitzcrank!

***

The creep wave was pushing toward their tower and Vayne was aware of the situation. Knowing that Sona no longer had Flash, she froze the lane nearer to her own tower. If the Jungler came to gank or if Blitzcrank managed to land a hook, Vayne didn’t necessarily need to Condemn her to the wall for her to get a kill!

Since he was playing Blitzcrank, he needed to take advantage of the creep wave. It was best if he could continuously control the vision so that he could land a hook, that way, he would have an eighty to ninety percent chance of winning the match.

Luocheng continued to keep an eye on Sona, she didn’t even dare to come forward to poke, only watching from a safe distance as Vayne continued to farm.

At the same time, the creep wave started to push forward.

While Luocheng still had a few ranged minions, he clicked on the G key!

The G key signified an attack signal!

This time, Vayne had more confidence in this Support and she repositioned herself forward. The huge yellow mechanical golem seem to be clumsy and awkward, but in the hands of Luocheng, it had become unusually flexible.

A Flash, and then, a Rocket Grab!

The claws which were crackling with electricity flew past Sona’s defense, smashing into her and dragging her back to where Blitzcrank stood. One hit from Blitzcrank sent her flying up high into the air, and her health bar dropped drastically. The explosive damage of Blitzcrank in early games was hard to ignore, one skill shot combined with three arrows from Vayne and Sona’s head was taken off directly.

Before breathing her last breath, Sona cast Exhaust on Vayne, but this final struggle didn’t make any sense at all and it would instead be a disadvantage to Sona when she came back to the lane without it for the next fight.

Top lane had already claimed first blood, thus, Sona’s bounty gave Vayne three hundred gold. This was a huge advantage for Vayne, who was weaker in the early game.

“Awesome!” Lin Dong cheered, a smile breaking out on his face.

Xiao Bei was looking at Luocheng in adoration, he never imagined that Luocheng could play as a Support so effectively. Qianqian had witnessed how awesome Luocheng could be with Blitzcrank, when he played with her in the lower tier games, there was rarely a time when his Blitzcrank missed his hook!

Twice he threw his hook, and twice it landed. It could be said that the moment Luocheng opened his eyes, it had always been for the purpose of creating a trap for Sona. When the time came, Sona would jump into the trap by herself.

After Sona died, Miss Fortune retreated further behind the creep wave, not even daring to farm. This made the gold income difference bigger, not only due to the three hundred gold that Vayne had claimed the bounty from.

***

After returning to the base and buying items, he once again returned to the bottom lane. Luocheng quickly typed in the chat to Vayne, “You can be aggressive in the next round, I still have Exhaust. We’ll aim for Sona.”

At level four, Luocheng chose to increase his W skill. As long as the number of creeps didn’t go beyond six, getting the creep aggro-ed wasn’t a problem at all. Due to the plays before this, Vayne now had a high level of trust in her Support.

It was better to have a good control on vision first because the Jungler may choose this time to come down. To be aggressive, Luocheng made sure his vision covered a wider area. Planting wards in a narrower view or a wider view made a lot of difference. If it was a narrow view, even if you could see the opponent Jungler coming, you would be unable to escape.

Sona may have requested help from their Jungler, otherwise, they were just sitting ducks without Exhaust and Flash.

***

“The opponent’s Jungler has appeared at mid lane!” Lin Dong pointed out to Luocheng.

Luocheng nodded, pressing W to activate Overdrive for the bonus movement speed, speeding past the creeps. Miss Fortune was smart, she didn’t immediately try to escape but instead, stood her ground and fired at him. Sona was also experienced, turning around to attack him.

These two champions combined, their damage output was high. If he didn’t cast Exhaust on Miss Fortune at the right time, his health would have dropped by half almost immediately. At that point, even if he managed to drag someone back to him, he most likely would not have beaten them.

Rocket Grab!

His claws flew out, and the champion he caught was still Sona.

Why Sona?

Normally for Blitzcrank players, once they see the opponent ADC in front of them, they would happily hook the ADC over. However, at this point, there was no purpose in pulling Miss Fortune, and you could be killed instead if you did.

Miss Fortune still had Flash, so even if you hooked her, she could Flash out and with Sona positioned in a ‘X’ shape continuously attacking, Luocheng might be killed instead. It was impossible to ignore the damage Sona and Miss Fortune could put forth together.

Hence, throwing an Exhaust on Miss Fortune and decreasing her damage, getting rid of Sona, and then focusing on Miss Fortune; With that, the fight was in the bag.

“Ah!” Sona screamed, dying once again!

Miss Fortune glanced at Blitzcrank who only had two thirds of his health left, but she didn’t dare to give chase. If she had, don’t even talk about Blitzcrank killing her, she would definitely die to Vayne. However, when Miss Fortune tried to make her escape, she made a blunder and was pinned to the wall by Vayne.

Looking at her health, Miss Fortune had no choice but to use Barrier and managed to retreat back to her tower. With two kills, Vayne returned to base and bought a Bilgewater Cutlass. With this, Vayne’s basic attack was higher than Miss Fortune and she also had a slow effect from the item!

***

With two kills and the amount of farm Vayne had, they had basically dominated the opponent in the bottom lane already. Their own Jungler was extremely smart, knowing that the opponent’s Jungler would definitely head toward the bottom lane to assist, he came down to the bot lane for a counter.

Highly skilled players were always very alert and Luocheng felt extremely thankful toward them. It looked as though the chances of winning this match was very high now!

Their Jungler’s intuition was not wrong, the opponent Jungler really did appear. He was smart about it though, not walking through the tribush from the river side, but instead, hiding in a blind spot, waiting for Luocheng to come forward and hook, planning to ambush them.

However, he wasn’t expecting that behind the Blitzcrank and Vayne, there was, in fact, another champion lying in wait! The fight started when Luocheng landed a hook on Miss Fortune. It was obvious that Miss Fortune had used her Flash to deceive them as there was another champion waiting behind her.

Luocheng had it all calculated, choosing to knock her high up into the air once he got her, because he had a trump card behind him as well!

***

The fight ended with a double kill announcement for Vayne, and Luocheng had succumbed to his injuries. However, all three opponent champions had met their end at the bottom lane. One by the Jungler, and the other two by Vayne. This further solidified their victory in this match!

***

During mid game, Luocheng furiously planted wards and dewarded, completely controlling the vision field. Their opponents didn’t have any vision, getting hooked a lot due to their arrogance and they couldn’t retaliate due to that.

Thanks to that, the match was easily wrapped up in twenty minutes!

***

Victory!

The blue words floated across his screen and Luocheng’s face broke out into a wide smile.

23 consecutive win streaks!

The last time, Luocheng had lost at his twenty-third win streak. No matter what, he needed to take the next step!
