Chapter 509: Are You Playing or Not?

Actually, after winning that teamfight, if the ADC was still alive, you should move on to kill the Baron unless the fight had happened at the bottom part of the bottom lane…

If you had won the teamfight but chose to take the high-ground, once you had taken the enemy inhibitor, the enemy would have just finished respawning or would be back to full health. In this situation, you would be forced to go back to base, and you might even be chased for a short distance till you finally got the chance to recall. Now, the enemies would try to rush to the Baron. How would you know if you would make it even after recalling to try and prevent the enemy from taking the Baron? Also, with your team scattered, it was extremely easy to get picked off by the enemy.

After the enemy gained three minutes of the Baron buff and 300 gold each, it meant that the money lost from the last fight was made up for, and regarding the destruction of the inhibitor, it did not become that impactful. With the enemy having three minutes of the Baron buff, you would not start a teamfight lightly, and once the buff disappeared, the inhibitor might have respawned by then.

Not to mention, by winning a teamfight and taking the enemy high-ground, it would be easy for the average player to think that he had the upper hand. After that, they would forcefully start a fight with the enemy team which had the Baron buff. Upon engaging in the fight, they would realize that they had no chance of winning and would get wiped and defeated instead!

That was why, after winning a teamfight, the choice to take the Baron was usually the better one. After obtaining the Baron Buff and getting a lead in gold, the destruction of the enemy high-ground was just a matter of time!

***

That fight earlier was an accident. Although they had won the teamfight, they did not have their ADC anymore. If they tried to take on the Baron without enough damage output, they might get ambushed by the enemy and get ACED. They may even lose the Baron to the enemies, which was probably why they chose to take the high-ground.

After that, the only hope was that Luocheng, who had recalled back to base earlier, could successfully disturb the enemy and prevent the enemy from getting the Baron!

Luocheng had already calculated all the steps that he needed to do later. He was sure that after pushing the high-ground, the enemies would definitely rush toward the Baron. This was why he did not join his teammates who were pushing the inhibitor. Instead, he chose to return to base and rushed to the Baron after buying all the items that he needed!

Just as he had expected, the enemies had already gathered around the Baron and were attacking it.

Naturally, Luocheng did not dare to walk to the Baron along the river, instead, he went to the top of the cliff of the Baron’s pit.

When he left his base, he was ready with enough wards. He placed three wards at the top of the Baron’s Cliff and placed a vision ward there as well!

Remove it, just try to remove it! Come and try if you dare!

It was obvious that Luocheng wanted to use the wards to drag out their time in killing the Baron.

The wards might be destroyed in a few seconds with basic attacks but it would definitely annoy the enemy ADC.

Jingsiong was actually quite smart, and he knew what Luocheng was planning. Even if he took down the ward, he still had more wards on him. This was his plan to drag the time out for his team to get here. If that happened, a team-wipe would be inevitable!

After ignoring Luocheng’s constant wards, Jingsiong and his teammates tried their best and used their skills to kill the Baron. With that effort, the Baron’s health was depleting non-stop!

Luocheng looked at the location of his teammates and looked back at the Baron’s health…

They would not make it!

He had to go in!!

Luocheng stared at the Baron’s health, not bothering to use his mouse to tap on the Baron to see its health. If he wanted to steal the Baron, it would depend on his game sense. Sometimes, you could not focus on the Baron’s health in numbers because most of the time, you had to calculate the amount of damage that the other champions would do to it as well. When killing the Baron, Taiwan’s team also had their own strategy. When the Baron had only 2,500 HP remaining, all of them would use their skills all at once to let the Baron’s health drop to lower than 1,000 HP. At this time, champions like Lee Sin could use his skills to kill the Baron in one go. With this, the enemies who wanted to steal the Baron would not have time to do it…

For Korea’s teams, they always had a pattern when they took the Baron. When they saw the enemy Jungler swoop in, all of them would stop targeting the Baron at once. This was because most the Junglers who tried to steal the Baron would count in the damage that the enemies could do as well. After that, he would jump in ahead of time, but when he did, he would realize that all of them had stopped attacking the Baron and his own damage would not be able to kill the Baron. Hence, the Jungler who jumped in would die first, followed by the Baron!

After many experiences, Luocheng was used to guessing when was the right moment to steal!

When he saw that it was time to strike, Luocheng immediately used his Ultimate!

Invisible Flash!

The enemy Lee Sin had always been paying attention to when Luocheng would be jumping down, but suddenly, Kha’Zix disappeared and there was only a flash of light left!

Kha’Zix was nowhere to be seen!

They had the vision wards planted but still could not see where Kha’Zix was!

“Bang!!!”

A heavy hit was landed, and at the same time, claws came out from the sky and swiped across the Baron’s body.

The enemy Lee Sin had lost his focus because of Kha’Zix’s sudden disappearance, and alas, his speed was too slow. By the time he had regained his senses, he found that Kha’Zix had already killed the Baron!

It wasn’t just that the 300 gold didn’t reach their pockets, the Baron’s buff was also stolen by the enemy! It really was infuriating for the five of them!

“Kill that d*mn Kha’Zix!” Jingsiong shouted!

Right then, the vision ward revealed the location of the annoying Kha’Zix, and suddenly, Silences, restraints, and stuns were all cast toward Luocheng!

Luocheng really had inhuman reactions and immediately after killing the Baron, he started to fly and landed outside of the Baron Pit, turning around to hit Soraka with a multitude of skills!

It was obvious that Soraka was slow in reacting, only managing to Silence Luocheng after he landed on the ground. Earlier, she did not have any way to do it seeing as Kha’Zix had turned invisible and Flashed in, making it impossible to Silence the latter.

Upon jumping out, Shallow Dream gave him the shield as soon as possible, and Luocheng used his third skill’s invisibility effect and flew right into the middle of all the enemies!

When taking the Baron, it would be extremely easy to accidentally stand too close to each other. The place that Luocheng had jumped to was also the opening of the entrance to the Baron pit. Shallow Dream had found the perfect window to use her shockwave and successfully got four of the enemies!

The stream started to explode with cheers!

Other than Luocheng’s shining Kha’Zix, this Orianna was also heavenly in this game. Her ulti was always used in the key moment, and this time, she had managed to hit four out of the five enemies! With that combo, the health of the group of enemies who had tried to take the Baron was brought down extremely low!

Meanwhile, Luocheng casually walked between them and used a Q-skill elegantly to kill the enemy Mid!

That mage was also a top-tier player, but in this game, he was crushed heavily, always being the first one to die in every single teamfight!

After killing the enemy Mid and refreshing the E-skill, Luocheng pounced on Morgana and Soraka. After the short cooldown on the Q-skill was over, it was another claw attack right across Morgana’s throat and fresh blood spurted across the Baron Pit!

Once he had tasted blood, Kha’Zix’s wings would start fluttering.

The next one would be you, Soraka!

Are you still healing? Really? Did you think that it would work!?

I’ll give you a swift death, Soraka!

With a beautiful leap by Luocheng, Soraka could barely handle that armor-piercing damage!

Since Soraka did not get killed instantly, Luocheng was unable to use her as a springboard to get to Jingsiong’s ADC.

However, Luocheng’s teammates had already arrived!

At this time, it did not matter how much you tried to act. Kunti looked at this scene, and after seeing them lose the advantage, he started panicking and used his skills to control Jingsiong’s Battle Mistress. This led to their fellow ADC finally getting a kill and completing the slaughter!

Now this was what it should be like!

Kunti followed everyone into the high-ground reluctantly.

Once he saw a big VICTORY on the screen, Kunti was shocked and annoyed.

This Kha’Zix was really too strong. Even with Kunti himself disconnecting in the early-game and also exposing his location constantly, he was still able to win the game!!

Kunti was not originally in that group of people, and after that match, he had to admit that Orianna and Kha’Zix were extremely good at the game!!

***

On the other side, Park Yisheng started to swear constantly. How dare you, Kunti! You already received payment and still failed as the person on the inside!!

Thinking about it, it really was a rank match. Once there was a mole on the inside, there would normally be no way for them to win anymore. Just how stupid could a person be to mess such an easy thing up?? This was why Kunti was still in the second-tier teams and could not show his face!!

Yisheng was extremely unhappy. After such a detailed plan, how could he let that b*stard win a game!?

“Can you guys play seriously! Did you people seriously forget how he shamed Korean Esports?” Yisheng said to the crowd with an annoyed voice. It was fitting for a flagbearer of a competitive team.

“We tried our best.”

“Yeah, your insider was not good enough.”

“You can’t blame anyone. If we had an insider with them, they also had one, like that idiot Lee Sin…”

“Who are you talking about? Who? Do you dare to 1 vs 1 me bro???”

Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Yisheng quickly intervened. “Stop fighting, stop fighting! Prepare for the next match. Don’t let him win again. What do you think about a China rat coming into our turf and winning two matches!? As the best Esports players, can you guys take it!?”

Once he mentioned Korea’s dignity, everyone stopped fighting and were once again ready to go!

“Weird, why is he not searching for a match anymore?”

“I don’t know. From the information that I got, that Chinese player is adjusting something…”

“He will definitely play all three games. If he does not play the third match, we can just laugh at him and say that he is afraid of losing the third game. The Chinese think that it can be settled with just that. Win one game and lose one game. They think that it is safe to tell their fans that.”

“If so, compared to our Korean Esports spirit, that really is too funny. Can a competition that you don’t win even be called a competition? They really are scaredy-cats!”

Yisheng started to praise their way of thinking and nodded. “But really, only a weak person would think that a draw against someone strong would be something to be proud of.”

“Yeah, that is correct.”

“This is also why they like to come to our turf to show off and don’t play by themselves.”

The competitive Korean players started to talk and were all waiting for the third game that was about to come.

But what about Luocheng?

With these people dragging him down, should he continue or not? Or could he make those Koreans pay for what they had done?
