League of Legends: League of Unknowns Chapter 441

Chapter 441 - Hades, The Merciless Killer

Between five and six and a half minutes, that was the best timing for a gank at the bottom lane, when the wards on both sides were down and none of them had Flash.

They had to let go of the middle lane. Zhou Yan started to swim downwards, he needed to get them an advantage at the bottom lane.

“I’m coming!” said Zhou Yan.

“Are the others following from behind?” asked Yu Luocheng.

“Don’t talk like you’re selling drugs, yeah? Want me to go up and bait myself?” joked Lin Dong.

Yu Luocheng shook his head.

Nowadays, LOL players are becoming more savvy. If you’ve played ranked games in Platinum or Diamond and above in the Ionia server, you’d know that one wrong step alone could result in you getting caught by your opponent. And no one would even bother about you if that happened.

To put it bluntly, for you to suddenly be so reckless when you were being so cautious all this while, it can only be because you were f*cking up to something!

This has provided some consolation to players who played in Internet cafes with unstable connections. Even if the weak connection caused them to misstep, it’s not certain that their opponent would catch up…

In other worlds, if you want your opponent to fall for your tricks in this era, you had to sell it properly. Putting on too fake of an act would get you nowhere.

Asmodai and Mephistopheles were veterans. If Lin Dong went forward to try anything, they would definitely throw out a set of skills and turn around to retreat, letting their Jungler hit empty air.

Good players had to also know how to act well.

Yu Luocheng firmly believed himself to be a master actor. Even with Zhou Yan camping his lane, his movement and actions didn’t change. He had no intention of charging in, and it felt like his Jungler didn’t exist in the lane at all.

Seeing Annie, Yu Luocheng suddenly sent a Flash Frost towards her. Mephistopheles’ movements were also not just for show. He just navigated the little lolita girl slightly, easily dodging the chunk of ice that was sure to stun her if it hit.

As soon as Yu Luocheng released his skill, it was obvious that the positioning of Asmodai and Mephistopheles had slightly shifted to the front.

Taking advantage of the moment when your opponent didn’t have their skill up to push forward or hit the wave was a skill that had to be mastered at the bottom lane, especially if your opponent was using a champion like Blitzcrank.

You could go forward with peace of mind, knowing that there was a ten second cooldown on the skill. You could do a lot in that time!

With the same logic applying to Anivia, this champion was really utility heavy. Once she missed her skill, it was the same as not being a threat anymore as a Support. This includes her E skill since the double damage which applies to enemies hit by Frost Flash was now useless.

In this situation, Asmodai and Mephistopheles were not about to let go of the chance to pressure the lane.

However…

You guys came forward, you took the bait!

As Yu Luocheng stepped back, Annie stepped forward with a stun at the ready to disrupt Lin Dong’s farming. When she did so, Yu Luocheng suddenly turned.

Crystallize!Read more chapter at vipnovel

An impenetrable wall of ice shot up from the ground, directly in between Annie and Graves, cutting off this little lolita girl and uncle.

When Mephistopheles saw the wall come up, he didn’t think much of it because he wasn’t that afraid of it at all. Graves needing some time to catch up wasn’t much of a setback. But then he saw an axe flying out from the bush and his face turned pale.

“This wall is really in the best spot. Even though she now knows that there’s an ambush behind it, Annie has no way to back her ADC up. The duration of the ice wall from Crystallize is five seconds, and if you place it well, Annie who doesn’t have a Flash will most likely perish before it goes down!” exclaimed Bao Jun.

The wall had left Annie with no place to go, making everyone suddenly realize Anivia’s power as a Support!

The range of releasing Crystallize was quite far. With a wall in place to directly seal off your opponent’s retreat, there was nothing you could do once the Jungler arrived. In this situation, you had to either trade a Flash or a kill.

Mephistopheles didn’t want to struggle. When they caught their opponents, Supports like Taric, Thresh, or Leona still had some distance between them, so as long as Mephistopheles didn’t go too far forward, he probably still had some chance of survival. But in this situation, he had a wall directly behind him, and going around it would take a few seconds…

He previously thought that it would be hard if he was to be trapped like this. Now that it had actually happened, Mephistopheles realized how disgusting Anivia was as a Support. The problem was that the wall was part of Anivia’s kit, and looking at the width of the wall, it seemed like Anivia had added more points into W.

Crystallize had a cooldown of twenty-five seconds. As long as there was someone camping behind them, plus being blocked off by the wall, you would have to Flash. If Anivia used Flash and sealed off the road, then you’d have to trade a kill again…

“Olaf will come to camp again, our lane is the easiest to gank right now. Bel, come over and counter gank,” said Mephistopheles.

“Alright,” replied Belial, nodding.

***

Mephistopheles’ expectation was not wrong. After Olaf’s earlier successful gank at the five-minute mark, he camped once again at six minutes, trying to squeeze as much as possible in the time that they didn’t have Flash.

An eye for an eye—Yu Luocheng understood this well.

Mephistopheles purposely pretended to ward, and though Yu Luocheng felt that he was being too fake, he couldn’t help throwing up a wall, trapping Annie.

Once she was trapped, Annie threw out a stun right onto Yu Luocheng’s face. Elise and Olaf appeared simultaneously, targeting each other’s Support and fighting to kill them immediately!

The burst damage from Olaf’s E was terrifying, Mephistopheles’ Annie was killed quickly. At the same time, Yu Luocheng’s Anivia took an onslaught from Elise, dying instantly!

However, when Belial and Asmodai realized that Yu Luocheng had changed into Eggnivia, they frowned in annoyance.

This egg… should they hit it nor not? If they hit it, they would be pelted with attacks from the others. But if they didn’t hit it, they would feel like their previous attacks had gone to waste!

“Back, back!” said Belial.

He felt that the situation was not in their favour, their opponent Support basically had two lives and they didn’t have their own Support. Plus, it was obvious that Anivia was also baiting.

Belial realized that he deeply hated those champions who naturally had two lives like Zac, Anivia, and Aatrox. Think about all the times you’ve wasted your effort throwing an Ignite, and even after you gave out your Flash to take away your opponent’s last bit of health, only for them to become an egg in front of your eyes. How would you feel?

The excitement and adrenaline from a kill, but just because your opponent naturally had two lives…

This wave was another loss!

Seeing Anivia revive with enough health, Belial could only grit his teeth and leave. Not taking Anivia’s passive into account was his mistake.

Wu Sen suddenly spoke up, warning them, “Careful, Hades is heading to the bottom!”

Everyone’s hearts jumped in panic, hurriedly backing up.

Yu Luocheng was looking at the map, but the ward on the river side didn’t capture Riven’s silhouette.

“Where is he coming from?” asked Yu Luocheng in a hurry.

“His own jungle side.”

The left side of the Dragon area had a ward, and it didn’t show Hades coming downwards at all. However, Hades had disappeared from vision for a while, and the bottom lane fight had ended. It would be pointless for him to come give assistance now.

Unless…

Just as Yu Luocheng was guessing where Hades had disappeared to, a bloodthirsty figure burst out from the tribush behind the turret!

“Watch out!” shouted Yu Luocheng.

Just as he got those words out, Hades’ Riven moved from the tribush to the turret in the blink of an eye.

“HA!”

With a burst of runic energy from her sword, Yu Luocheng and Zhou Yan who were under turret were stunned.

The runic blade danced dazzlingly…

“HA!”

The blast of energy came to a close.

DOUBLEKILL!!

***

Fast!

It was too fast!

That was the only thought in Yu Luocheng’s mind when the screen turned grey. His internal trembling left him unable to snap back to reality for a long time.

At most, that was 0.7 seconds!

Zhou Yan was also silent. To get a double kill under turret was too sudden!

The entire arena was silent too, the only one you could hear exclaiming in excitement was the commentator. Everyone was speechless, this double kill had successfully stunned the entire crowd.

“Replay it, let’s watch the replay!” said Bao Jun, unable to explain what had just happened.

Not long after, the replay was shown on screen at a slower speed.

At this speed, you could see Riven appearing from behind the turret and suddenly moving 900 range, which is about half a Flash. She unleashed Broken Wings, killing both Anivia and Olaf!

“Oh my god, that’s so fast, and this is on slow mo! I can’t even tell the sequence in which the moves were unleashed!” shouted Bao Jun.

In slow motion, Riven still managed to kill off Anivia and Olaf who had half health left in an instant. How fast was Hades’ Riven at unleashing his skills?!

“Did anyone understand that super fast sequence that Hades released just now?!”

***

Yu Luocheng’s eyes darkened in contemplation as he muttered to himself the sequence of Hades’ move…

“First he Q, moved a little bit, E and ulti at the same time he Flashed. W to stun, taking two of us, and then the second Q, Wind Slash from his ulti, and the third Q at the same time?!”

Such a complicated maneuver chained together, it really was a shockingly beautiful maneuver!

Even having Flash in hand was useless, you would still only see the after shadow of Riven…

Yu Luocheng knew that Hades was scary, knew that he was strong. This was also the first time he had properly gone up against the strongest player in the country.

But Hades’ strength had far exceeded Yu Luocheng’s expectations, making him break out in cold sweat. With this kind of hand speed, it was easy enough to kill off his own back line!
