Chapter 92: It Sounds Like a Different Game

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Light Binding!

With a swift twist of the wand in her hand, a pearly white radiance flew straight toward Taric, the Gem Knight.

Taric had been walking straight toward Yu Luocheng’s Lux and it was impossible to evade the attack at such a short distance.

Taric did not show any intention of evading anyway as the damage of the spell was insignificant to the champion’s high HP.

“Finish him!” Zhong He, the support from Team Dawn yelled.

Root, unlike stun, only disabled a champion from moving or relocating. A stun like Taric’s however, could still be executed even when the champion was rooted.

Zhong He’s decision to dash out from the bush meant that he was going straight in for the kill.

Taric released his skill, Dazzle, and a white, glittering powder immediately flew across the air in a perfect arc toward Lux.

As Taric’s ability had a visible projection, Yu Luocheng calmly pressed down on his R key when he saw his opponent releasing the stun spell.

Final Spark!

Light magic danced radiantly in front of Lux.

The light particles concentrated and shot forward, parallel to the flat ground. A few seconds later, the ray of light penetrated the air from the bush straight toward the opposite tower.

Though Taric’s Dazzle did hit Lux, Yu Luocheng had still managed to release Final Spark in time. The ultimate skill, following Lux’s gentle shout, landed precisely on the Gem Knight’s armor plate.

Taric’s HP dropped drastically after he sustained the shockingly high burst damage.

Clap!

A Snap Trap had been placed quickly under Taric’s feet. Ocean had been prepared to follow up as the main source of damage, and Caitlyn moved forward boldly to ensure that she could get the highest damage output.

Taric had wanted to further reduce Lux’s Armor with Shatter. However, the Snap Trap placed right on time by Caitlyn had him rooted once again!

“Shit!!” The support from Team Dawn cursed in irritation.

The close to four seconds he had spent immobilised coupled with Lux’s horrifying burst damage had taken away most of his HP. Zhong He lost all his courage to march forward and quickly surrendered his Flash in an attempt to flee.

But, almost as if it had been rehearsed beforehand, just as the depleted Taric Flashed away, Lux’s Lucent Singularity and Caitlyn’s Piltover Peacemaker—two super long-ranged abilities—hit him simultaneously!

The two followed-up skills erased Taric’s last hope of getting out alive.

“Ah!!!”

After a painful shriek, Taric was shattered by Caitlyn’s Pacifier and fell to the ground covered in blood.

***

Tao Fang’s Varus pushed forward after witnessing the death of his teammate. He hoped to at least take out Lux, who was equally low in health points.

The shield on Lux was going to vanish soon so she would definitely be killed with another two basic attacks by Varus.

Yu Luocheng did not use Flash immediately. Instead, he controlled his champion to walk back into the bush so as to conceal Lux from Varus’s vision.

Varus still had a lot of HP left and he chased after Lux without much hesitation, trying to block off her path back to the tower.

However, when he entered the edge of the bush, he realized Lux was running in the opposite direction instead and was about to reach the bush on their side.

‘It’s too far away!’

Tao Fang held no reservations and used Flash to garner a sure-kill.

In spite of that, Yu Luocheng must have foreseen this when he chose that particular escape route, for he too used his Flash at the same time as Varus. He re-appeared right on the edge outside the attack range of the opponent’s tower.

The ADC from Team Dawn sneered.

‘Lux has no room to escape now. She is going to be killed for sure once my Q-skill cooldown is up.”

Clap!

Suddenly, the sounds of snapping metal came from under Varus’s feet.

‘Snap Trap?! D*mn, it’s that f*cking Sheriff’s trap!’

Varus had been too obsessed with Lux, not noticing the trap that had been placed near the edge of the bush.

The deadly trap had Tao Fang in full panic!

‘Get off now! Just one more hit on Lux!’

Bang!

Out of nowhere, a headshot by Caitlyn put Varus to the ground for good before he was able to escape the trap.

“DOUBLE KILL!!!”

Double kill!

In the end, Varus was unable to land the final hit.

Tao Fang’s face completely changed when he was killed.

He had done the calculation beforehand. He could have taken down Lux and still escape with sufficient HP.

Unfortunately, he had forgotten about Caitlyn’s Snap Trap.

He had thrown all of his abilities and even his Summoner spell. That clash in the bottom lane should have gotten at least one head in return. The 0 to 2 score was unacceptable and would turn the bottom-lane heavily in Team Scarlet’s favor.

“Such beautiful coordination!” The host yelled in excitement.

When the audience witnessed how Lux had survived with that timely Flash to the most extreme position near the enemy tower, the crowd burst into exuberant applause.

“The stronger combination of Varus and Taric was supposed to have dominated this fight. I think a lot of the audience must be wondering how Team Scarlet was able to execute such a beautiful double-kill at the bottom lane. I am going to analyze and explain the fight from the start. To be honest, I am getting more and more impressed by Yu Luocheng from Team Scarlet,” the host carried on, unable to reign in his enthusiasm.

‘Eh, isn’t this all thanks to Caitlyn’s foresight for placing the trap strategically? Why is the host more impressed by the support? Besides, it was the Caitlyn who scored the double-kill!’

A lot of people were confused by the host’s claim. They wondered what kind of high-level play could they have missed in that previous fight.

“Alright, videographer, please give us a replay of that fight!”

The replay rolled all the way back to Yu Luocheng’s supposed positioning error.

“I think at first, almost all of us would think that this is an error. However, look at Lux’s subsequent action.”

“This is clearly a bait. Lux immediately cast Light Binding as soon as Taric walked up to her.”

“This is the most classic scene. Everyone, please pay close attention here.”

In the replay scene, Lux followed up her Q-Binding skill directly with her ultimate.

“I bet most of you are confused over this move. Lux’s standard combo should be E-skill after Q-Binding, and only then, her ultimate, right?”

“Look over here. Taric’s stun was already out. If she had applied the standard combo at this point, she would not have been able to get her ultimate out in time. More importantly, this player actually utilized a very classic technique, which was to cancel the effect of the stun with Lux’s ultimate,” The host said animatedly.

‘What? Lux’s ultimate can be used to cancel a stun?’

To most viewers, the host’s explanation made no sense.

In the front seats, Wang Qin looked at Yang Qianqian, puzzled.

For her part, Yang Qianqian did not understand a single word either.

“This actually requires very meticulous control. See here, Lux’s ultimate was released at the exact moment she was hit by Taric’s Dazzle.”

“As you are all aware, Lux’s ultimate is like Ezreal’s ulti. There is a swing back motion before they release the skill. Once this motion occurs, the ulti can not be broken unless the champion is killed!”

“In other words, this player has made use of the stun from his opponent to release Lux’s ultimate. Since it could not be broken, his champion kept the cast motion going even after she was stunned, so this indirectly defused one second of the stun period and rendered Taric’s Dazzle useless.”

‘Unbreakable ulti?! Timing the ultimate right so that the cast motion could not be stopped? The hell...’

The viewing hall suddenly fell silent after the host finished his sentence.

‘F*ck! Is that even possible?’

At that moment, a lot of players began to wonder if Yu Luocheng was actually playing a completely different game than theirs.
