Chapter 124: A Shocking Triple Kill

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Renekton’s E-skill was avoidable, but the stun effect from his W landed after she had released her arrow, so Vayne couldn’t deal much damage during the time that she was stunned.

Using life steal, Vayne was able to recover some of her health and she now had one-third of health, and Renekton who was pure tank couldn’t possibly kill Vayne now. Every third arrow shot from her bow gave an additional eight percent true damage of the target’s maximum health, and even Renekton who had a lot of health would eventually die without Randuin’s Omen.

Vayne chased Renekton from the bottom brush all the way to the Dragon’s Pit, and he was now left with a third of his health. Going against a Vayne who had her essential items, being a meat tank was basically useless. With one-third of her health bar remaining, all Vayne needed was two shots of Silver Bolts’ bonus true damage, and the gigantic crocodile could only die there and then.

“Renekton doesn’t have much health left,” Qi Qiao observed. “Looks like this is it for him.”

Just as Qi Qiao said that, Renekton turned and launched himself in Vayne’s direction. Renekton’s sudden turn shocked the crowd, he was obviously just buying time before this, waiting for Vayne to let her guard down and for his skills to cool down before launching a counter-attack.

Renekton’s damage wasn’t to be underestimated, even if he was a pure tank, his damage was still high.

Growl!

However, just as Renekton turned around, Vayne flipped her cloak gracefully, easily avoiding the lunge from Renekton as she Tumbled sideways. It seemed like Renekton’s massive teeth only managed to graze Vayne’s cloak, as she didn’t sustain any damage at all, and needless to say, she avoided the dash from the second part of his E too!

Not being able to touch Vayne, Renekton’s damage was useless and he was left hanging. Vayne’s follow up on her attack was fast, and if you were to look closely, it would seem like she had not stopped attacking at all. Every time she launched an arrow, she would reposition herself using her Tumble, and each time, she was looking for a better position.

“Vayne’s movements are very smooth, especially the repositioning after each hit. It is precise and calculated, and she doesn’t waste a single movement, at the same time finding a better position to attack Renekton!” Qi Qiao said.

Being able to explain the play proved that Qi Qiao was also a highly skilled player in LoL. In her opinion, the kiting ability of the player using Vayne was great, and Renekton couldn’t touch her at all from the beginning to the end.

Meanwhile, in the other room, Zhang Aijing, who was in charge of Team 71 was watching Yu Luocheng’s play with wide eyes. ADC was a position that required precise movement controls and they had the highest APM 1 among all the roles. Don’t even talk about the shocking maneuver he had previously done, the one he was doing right now was enough to amaze her with the amount of skill he was displaying.

Zhang Aijing was an analyst, a coach, and a trainer responsible for professional teams. Her own strength was on par with other professional players, but sadly, women seem to be naturally weaker than men in terms of E-Sports. That was the reason she was an analyst and manager instead of a player.

As an analyst, she was required to have keen eyes, to be able to quickly and accurately pinpoint a player’s movement style, awareness, reaction time, and fundamental skills. What amazed her was not how Yu Luocheng was moving the champion, but the fact that his fundamental skills in the game were just too perfect. The fundamental requirement of an ADC was positioning, but more importantly, was the ability to Animation Cancel.

What is Animation Canceling?

Every champion has a basic set of moves—raising their hands, launching an attack, and lowering their hands after the attack. Every action mentioned needs an amount of time for the animation to be carried out, and to increase your attack speed would mean to reduce the time needed for this.

Animation Canceling was a technique to end a basic attack or ability earlier than it would if you allow the whole animation of it to play through. You would click your mouse for an ability or basic attack just as the champion shoots. This was so they would move immediately once they were done with shooting, canceling the animation of lowering their hands, being able to immediately launch another attack or move to reposition themselves during the time the champion was supposed to finish its animation.

Zhang Aijing noted that when Yu Luocheng controlled Vayne, she had never stopped once, continuously raising, shooting, moving, raising, shooting, raising, shooting, Tumble...

There were no pauses in between, even when she avoided Renekton’s attacks, you could see shots being fired by Vayne!

You have to understand that in LoL, the champions can only accept commands. Right-click the ground and the champion will move towards it. Right-click the creep, the champion will move and attack it. There were no short cuts for you to move the way he was moving.

You would have to right-click every time your champion is about to shoot, and then use the A key or right-click again to attack your target.

One, two, three arrows...Seeing the arrows fly looked like something normal, but every time a single arrow flew, a highly skilled player would have to click two to three times to command, and the most important thing was to not allow your opponent to reach you, finding a more suitable angle to attack him!

If Vayne’s attack speed was 0.9 seconds, the player would have to click a command again in 0.6 seconds. And after that, if every attack was 0.9 seconds...

When playing as the ADC, they were expected to know how to Animation Cancel, but to reach this level of skill? It required a perfect hand-eye coordination! And the Vayne had not made a single mistake at all!

Zhang Aijing could tell that normally, an ADC player would start making a mistake at Animation Canceling around the 0.2 second mark, but watching Yu Luocheng play against Renekton, there was not a single mistake when he was performing Animation Canceling!

This felt like someone walking on a tightrope, and beneath it was a gigantic crocodile snapping its jaws, but the person walking did not falter at all with his steps and confidently reached the end of the rope with no mistakes!

TRIPLE KILL!

The announcement came suddenly, snapping Zhang Aijing out of her daze. Amazement was clear on her face as she took in the words.

Triple Kill! Vayne really got a triple kill!

From being ambushed by Orianna and Nocturne, to chasing Renekton into the river, one versus three, it was an extraordinary killing spree!

In the first twenty minutes, Vayne had still been struggling against the odds. But with this bot lane one against three, she had turned the tides around and become a hunter that no one would consider going against! He Jin’s face which had been twisted into an ugly expression from anger now cleared, lighting up with hope and relief instead after witnessing that solo triple kill.

Damn, as expected of Fighting Hawk to pull off such a brilliant play!

This was the semi-finals of the cyber cafe competition, and this type of play with one going against three would normally only be seen in normal or ranked matches. And here you have Vayne, who seemed to have no hope at all, having no kills and relying on pure farming to close the gap of gold gained. This weak ADC actually managed to secure a triple kill without any help from her teammates, it really was brilliant!

Liu Zhangming, who had been the most bias one against Yu Luocheng watched with his eyes almost bulging out from their sockets too. The more he looked at Yu Luocheng, the more resentment he had for him, but he couldn’t overcome the amazement inside on the triple kill that Yu Luocheng had just gotten. Don’t talk about amateurs, even a professional player may not have been able to pull off the same manoeuvre of this level!
