Undefeatable – League of Legends

Chapter 95: Minions Have Reached the Tower

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There was a thought all along that LoL matches should also have a half-time. This was to alleviate the tension from both teams in these matches, while also giving them time to regroup with the team and discuss further strategies for the match.

However, there wasn’t any rules for a break in the game, so they made it themselves—manual pause.

That’s to say, players would do things like kick out the internet cable, scream that the computer was lagging or that the screen froze midway, press R and state that their Q is not working... the list goes on.

The bottom line was, Huang Yu had made a great choice unknowingly, which was accidentally kicking the cable out of anger once he had gotten thrashed at mid lane. This allowed a short reprieve from the opponent’s constant barrage of attacks which had been snow-balling the lane.

“I’m sorry, everyone,” Huang Yu said dejectedly.

In this tournament, he had already messed up and let his team endure a 4 vs 5 in the first match. Now in the final match, although he was the team’s captain, he kept getting wrecked.

“We don’t blame you, that Fizz is really too good.” Yin Qin replied calmly.

Yu Luocheng nodded his head in agreement. From the moment Fizz had started farming, he could already tell that this player was so much better than Huang Yu in terms of skills. Not only was he skilled, he also had the support of a great jungler. Huang Yu was basically forced to face two semi-pro players in this match up alone.

Also, due to Xiao Dao’s Jarvan being killed the few times he chose to gank, he was already behind in terms of gold earned. He had no choice but to give up on mid lane and help out more at the top and bottom lanes. Even by doing so, he was still lagging behind in items as compared to the opponent jungler.

“The host had also revealed the opponent mid-laner’s information just now. He really is one of the top ten in the LoL University League.” Yin Qin recapped.

“How can they be so good? They aren’t even professionals but we’re being pressured until there’s nothing we can do.” Huang Yu said helplessly.

Huang Yu Wong rarely met such good adversaries, especially ones that could retaliate so strongly even after he had gained the advantage of first blood. He was even killed under his own tower! Was this what players from the top ten in the LoL University League were capable of?

Team Scarlet’s goal was to be professional players aiming to join the LPL tournament. But now, a semi-pro player from the University League was already giving them such a problem and this was a huge blow to their confidence. How were they supposed to win this match?

“Maybe you can try to force a team fight. Before Fizz returns to the mid lane, their team should be slightly weaker.” Yin Qin suggested.

Yu Luocheng shook his head. “We can’t.”

In terms of team fighting, Jayce’s crowd control was better than Fizz. Without his items however, it would not be enough. If they initiated a team fight, all Volibear had to do was just stand in front and take the damage and Jayce would be rendered useless. More importantly, their top lane Singed was not developed enough yet. Forcing a team fight too early would make Singed’s use in a team fight lower.

“Xiao Tongtong, play your Singed a bit more unconventionally.” Yu Luocheng said. “Try to attract their jungler’s attention as much as you can. Best if you go for Proxy Farming.”

“Proxy farming? Are you sure?” Xiao Tongtong asked.

“Yeah. Even if you get caught and die, you won’t lose out on that much gold. Basically you need to hurry back to your lane and give Riven and Volibear some kills. It’s better than letting them demolish it the whole way.”

After Huang Yu’s computer cable was reconnected, the players returned to their seats. As the big screen entered into a countdown, the players got ready to re-enter the match. As per Yu Luocheng’s suggested strategy of playing unconventionally, Xiao Tongtong tried to attract Fizz and Volibear’s attention.

What is proxy farming?

It requires a champion to run past the opponent’s first tower, killing all the minions in between the first and second tower. This tactic is similar to dangling a piece of meat in front of a bunch of hungry dogs.

In short—asking for it!

Xiao Tongtong’s play with Singed had the audience pointing and murmuring about it. If this had been done during normal matches or qualifying matches, it was usually by egoistic men who put on airs to show off!

***

“Yang Ying, the Singed is Proxy Farming. Should we chase after him? Mid lane’s Jayce is not worth much now anyway.” Lin Laowu asked.

“No, let him be,” Yang Ying said carelessly. “We’ll go to the bottom lane and pressure them instead.”

***

Singed had almost broken through, and yet there was no one who cared to stop him at the top lane. From the map, you could see that Fizz and Volibear had gone down to the bottom lane a few times, and had even invaded their jungle area.

“They’re not taking the bait...” Xiao Tongtong said, a little worried. He was basically stripteasing next to the tower, and still, no one bothered about him. Was this really a good strategy?

“They’re smart. They’ve already planned on forcing us into a team fight.” Yu Luocheng stated, frowning.

If they forced a team fight, the top lane wouldn’t be able to assist them. Jayce’s items were still incomplete, Jarvan didn’t have enough health to tank, this would result in a complete loss!

***

“Shit, they’re going to tower dive!” Xue Haiyang exclaimed loudly.

Fizz and Volibear had made their way to the bottom lane, cutting off Yu Luocheng and Xue Haiyang’s escape route from the back. This effectively trapped them under their own tower.

There were wolves in front and tigers at the back!

Yu Luocheng’s Lux and Xue Haiyang’s Caitlyn were stranded under the tower and were suddenly having to face four of the opposing champions. A cannon minion was nearing their tower, and they would definitely use the time when the tower was focusing on the cannon minion to launch their attack.

The minions had reached the tower, and four of the opponents had the tower surrounded. There was only Lux and Caitlyn to defend the tower.

“Xiao Dao, Huang Yu, don’t bother coming over! Just focus on pushing their mid lane tower!” Yu Luocheng instructed the rest of the team.

Even if the two of them came down to assist, they wouldn’t make it on time. Furthermore, as their items were not completed, they would just come to die at the bottom lane. The bush behind the tower had a ward which revealed Fizz and Volibear inside.

Fizz was already holding up his trident, waiting to dash out at any time to claim the heads of Lux and Caitlyn. Volibear was grinning and rubbing his paws together, eyes gleaming with beastly excitement. He clearly couldn’t wait to smash the two female champions that were trapped under the tower.

“Xue Haiyang, when I count to three, Flash and use your E to run. Keep running and don’t look back!” Yu Luocheng said solemnly.

“But what about you?”

“Three!” Yu Luocheng ignored him, starting his count.

“Two!”

“One!”
