Undefeatable – League of Legends

Chapter 260: Xiao Bei’s Vayne

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When entering the preparation phase this time, Xiao Bei did not hesitate to choose his ADC character. As his star character was Vayne, the Night Hunter, it was the wisest choice despite some minor weaknesses, moreover, Vayne would only thrive flawlessly if she was in the hands of Xiao Bei.

Under normal circumstances, Vayne was unsuitable as the first choice because the hatred toward her would sometimes exceed even Teemo, which attracted unnecessary attention.

Debates sounded from the crowd as they saw the character choice of Xiao Bei and Siyong, respectively Vayne and Caitlyn, as Caitlyn was the perfect counter for Vayne.

Vayne was bad at laning while Caitlyn was great at laning, and there would only be one victor in this match-up. Xiao Bei’s previous two ADCs had already been abused by Siyong, and yet, he had made such a perilous choice for the third round?

...

Seeing Xiao Bei’s decision, Luocheng merely nodded slightly. Speed was never a scarcity of Xiao Bei, but instead, self-confidence. The moment Vayne was chosen, Luocheng felt those eyes were overwhelmed with confidence and concentration.

He had always believed in Xiao Bei’s abilities to surpass himself, in actual fact, his strength had already far exceeded his incompetent self. Xiao Bei only lacked experience and the knowledge to analyze formations, and such shortcomings would only be broken through by entering various competitions. Besides, Vayne was also his favorite character, the stage would now belong solely to Xiao Bei.

...

“Let’s review the line-up.”

“As you can see, Fudan University has chosen heroes which side more toward agility. They have Ahri in the mid lane, Lee Sin in the Jungle, Kha’Zix at the top lane, Sona as their Support, and Caitlyn as their ADC.”

“On the contrary, Team Skycrown has Syndra in the mid lane, they went with Elise as the Jungler, Kennen is their Top, Soraka as the Support, and Vayne as the ADC.

The appearance of Soraka as a team member made everyone question that decision.

Soraka was naturally weak and she was gradually losing her popularity in competitions. Most Supports used nowadays would be those who had strong control skills, proving to be useful later on in the game.

Choosing a Soraka bluntly meant that Wu Sen could only regenerate his teammate’s health bar, while leaving the rest of the work to the ADC.

Of course, that wasn’t his intention either.

Sona and Caitlyn both majored in poking their enemies, and without Soraka, Xiao Bei’s Vayne would easily meet her doom.

“Play properly this time.” Wu Sen said as he patted Xiao Bei on the shoulder.

Xiao Bei nodded, grateful for the trust placed in him.

...

“The battlefield is currently being projected onto the big screen!”

“Greetings, ladies and gentlemen, this match is brought to you by Qi Qiao. This is the season’s round three of the final match. This round of the preliminaries will decide who shall be qualified to enter the LPL to join the country’s top teams.”

“As of now, Fudan University is in the lead with two victories. As long as they win this round, they are eligible to enter the LPL tournament!”

“Not forgetting Team Skycrown, can they create a miracle by winning the last three matches consecutively!?”

Cheers of excitement echoed from behind Qi Qiao’s melodious angelic voice and onto the stage. The fans of Fudan University made up over 90% of the audience, boasting the popularity of a team formed by university students.

So what! As long as Team Skycrown won this tournament, the chants of the masses would surely be in their favour.

Their goal was to enter the world stage, how could they admit failure here?

...

As level ones, Team Skycrown proceeded to move together in a defensive stance, sticking to their plan of not engaging.

With Fudan University winning two matches, they obviously wanted to advance to see if they could breach into the farming zone of Team Skycrown. Sadly, Wu Sen had busted their plan.

“I’m not sure if Team Skycrown will switch lanes as Caitlyn and Sona’s attacks are very strong when combined. Soraka’s regeneration ability may not fully ensure Vayne’s safety when farming. To top it off, Sona has great control skills that can stun her opponent, proving its use later in the game.”

“Oh? They aren’t switching! It seems like they plan to play with fire.”

Siyong controlled Caitlyn so skillfully it was as if it were his own body participating in the fight, poking Xiao Bei every time he wanted to last hit with pinpoint accuracy, depleting Vayne’s health bar steadily.

Vayne had a smaller attack range which made it impossible to counterattack unless he useD Q to ambush while invisible, and unknowingly, his health bar was shaved down to two-thirds.

This time however, Xiao Bei did not panic, but rather, he continued to focus on killing the minions while waiting patiently for Wu Sen’s Soraka to level up. With a four percent lifesteal rune and Soraka’s heals, Xiao Bei could already control the amount of health he had at all times.

Caitlyn took aim carefully and pivoted her body carefully while holding her musket, and just as she used her Q, Piltover Peacemaker, the shot made its way toward Xiao Bei who was busy farming.

Right after Xiao Bei got that last hit on the creep, he immediately used his Q skill, controlling Vayne to tumble to the front, elegantly evading Caitlyn’s skill in the process.

As soon as Caitlyn’s skillshot had missed its mark, Vayne fired off a few shots from her crossbow at Caitlyn.

Out of the blue, she stopped for a second, and it looked as though the keyboard was malfunctioning once again, but without any warning, Vayne’s Condemn skill flew out toward Caitlyn and knocked her back.

In the process of the knockback, Vayne managed to get another hit on her, triggering the third consecutive attack on Caitlyn and applying the Silver Bolts effect!

Caitlyn’s health was diminished greatly and she could not go to the front to harass for a while.

“What a smooth maneuver!” Qi Qiao shouted in excitement, praising Xiao Bei.

“We all know that Vayne’s skill can be unleashed simultaneously and the common combination would be AQE, but seeing how Xiao Bei executed his Q first to shorten the distance between the champions, pausing briefly and then following up with his E then A was surely something else. I didn’t think we could use it that way and yet create such a miraculous combination!”

Seeing that Caitlyn was retreating, Vayne continued to farm peacefully. Just like that, ten minutes or so soon passed, and suddenly, she started to press forward and consequently dealt a heavy blow on Caitlyn when the latter was unaware!

Once again, Vayne had not retreated, and instead, had managed to deal a severe blow to Caitlyn’s health!

Naturally, Siyong would not allow the third strike to deal direct damage to his health while ignoring his shield. Before Vayne could deal the third attack, he used Caitlyn’s 90 Caliber Net to retreat and at the same time, slow Vayne down.

On his end, Xiao Bei was also well prepared and had not used his Q-skill with the intention to cast it as a backup, almost as if he already knew that Caitlyn would use her E-skill to retreat. At the exact moment the 90 Caliber Net was shot out, he skillfully rolled sideways, dodging the attack, and making the third hit and final strike.

It was exactly at this moment that Sona rushed over, wanting to let Vayne have a taste of her skills, but regretfully, she was silenced by Soraka before she could even lift a finger.

Flash!

Vayne flashed and pounced toward Caitlyn!

Bang!

Condemn!

The heavy crossbow bolts flew out and pinned Caitlyn to the wall, rendering her immobile and cast into a dire situation! If any ADC got pinned to the wall by Vayne, their lives would be in great danger!

Being stunned for 1.75 seconds gave Vayne ample time to release two more arrows, which at the same time, unlocked his W-skill’s true damage once again! In the blink of an eye, Caitlyn was left with a third of his health, and seeing as the situation demanded for it, Sona quickly reacted and cast her exhaust on Vayne.

Xiao Bei didn’t bother attacking and swiftly maintained his distance with Caitlyn. Right after the exhaust effect ended, Xiao Bei didn’t falter and charged in once again. The only option Siyong had was to retreat with his Flash, otherwise, his life would definitely be taken right then and there!

Seeing that Siyong was forced to flash away, Xiao Bei didn’t pursue any further nor bat an eye at Sona’s existence, but rather, he went back to farming the creeps to regenerate his health!

“Su... such a sudden face off!” Qi Qiao exclaimed.

“From farming calmly and leisurely to morphing into a ferocious predator the next second, just a little more and Siyong’s Caitlyn would have been slain. And right after that suspenseful encounter, he slipped right back into calmly farming, like nothing ever happened. Not only that, if anyone else has noticed, Xiao Bei totally ignored Sona knowing that she would use her ability to increase her health and he would be unable to kill her.”

Xiao Bei’s attack had definitely been a surprise, there were no signs of intention at all, and he had calmly trouncing Siyong with no mercy. By the time Siyong had regained his senses, his health was so low that even killing minions was impossible, and taking advantage of that, Xiao Bei then quickly secured his farm, leaving Siyong no choice but to go back to his base.

Once Siyong had returned to base, Xiao Bei immediately pushed the minion lane, causing Siyong to lose a wave of minions and experience points.

Score, 43:33.

Siyong hit the TAB only to find out that he was 10 creep scores behind the enemy. Under normal circumstances, Caitlyn should be in the lead by 10 creeps!

Siyong became frustrated, the earlier battle had weakened them heavily. Not only had both the ADC players used their Flash, Sona had even used her Exhaust.

Most importantly, after pushing the lane, Vayne had gone back to complete her item build. With Caitlyn’s advantage gone, Vayne would not need to fear Caitlyn anymore as she had a vampiric scepter now, moreover, with Soraka here, Xiao Bei would be happy to use that combo once more.

“Why do I feel that this ADC is a little different?” The Fudan University team’s Support asked, slightly bewildered.

Siyong nodded in agreement, for he too, had felt it!
