Ten minutes into the game, the two sides still hadn't started fighting, and Nightmare began to take the lead in the number of last hits.

It’s not that there’s a problem with Gragas’ combo for clearing the jungle, but that he is trying to counter-camp, which takes time.

But every counter-camping was fruitless, as Nightmare just wouldn't use his ultimate skill.

At the same time, the laning phase of all three lanes of AFS was affected. The presence of Nightmare made them dare not be too aggressive and they could only hold back.

Yuan Shen invaded the upper jungle area of ​​the opponent and placed a ward at the intersection between the three wolves and the blue buff.

The opponent's blue buff has been refreshed, and the mid laner should come over to get it.

Sure enough, Syndra accelerated and pushed the line of troops in the middle lane, and Gragas also appeared, apparently going to attack the blue buff.

Yuan Shen returned to his jungle area and got the red BUFF.

Wawa explained: "I thought Nightmare was looking for an opportunity to kill Syndra, but he didn't go up, so this ward position seems to be meaningless."

Miller agreed: "Maybe he just wanted to see the position of the opposing jungler? That's a more reasonable explanation."

However, just when everyone thought that nothing would happen.

The situation suddenly changed!
While Syndra was getting the blue buff, Akali pushed a wave of soldiers in the middle lane and then disappeared on the line.

"The middle lane is gone." Kuro gave the signal.

In the top lane, Kiin was setting up vision in the river and actively pushing the minion line. His idea was that as long as the minion line could not enter the defensive tower, he would not be bypassed.

Just when pushing the line, Nightmare suddenly activated his ultimate move!
“Lift the curtain!”

"This is war!"

Sion also activated his ultimate and rushed forward.

It was obvious that they were coming to attack the top lane, so Ornn waited for Sion to get close and then used flash to dodge.

"On the road, I won't die." Kiin reported the situation.

Although the nightmare had flown towards him, he believed that he would not die because the defense tower was right in front of him.

I didn't see Akali just now.

Even if Akali activated her ultimate while in Nightmare, and Kiin walked over from the river without vision, it would be too late.

Nightmare used his E skill to Ornn, and Sion rushed in front of Ornn and charged his Q skill.

Ornn threw his Q forward and used his E skill to crash into it, forcing Sion to release his Q skill in advance, so that there was no knock-up effect.

Ornn then activates his W, Bellows of Fire, to resist the Nightmare's fear.

I remember exclaiming: "Kin's operation is perfect, and the release of each move is very reasonable, but Akali is coming."

Kiin also felt that his handling of the situation was very cool, and that this was all his muscle memory, and he could do it without even thinking.

But Akali came from under the defensive tower!

Seeing this scene, Kiin was dumbfounded.

In fact, this was Rookie's plan from the beginning. When he was walking on the road at night, he saw Ornn going to the river to gain vision, so he chose to come here.

So Ornn activated his ultimate, trying to stop Akali from getting close, but Akali used her ultimate first and moved behind him, following up with her E skill. Ornn immediately adjusted direction and headbutted her, knocking Akali away, but Akali's E skill, Falcon Dance, had already hit her.

Akali uses the second stage of her E skill to get close, follows up with QA, and finally finishes with her ultimate.

Yuan Shen's Nightmare followed up with output and got the kill.

Wawa commented: "I never expected that the first one to die would be Ornn. Ornn was already building up some tankiness, plus he had flash and his E skill, and his W to counteract control. He was laning against a hero like Sion, so logically he shouldn't have died."

Miller continued: "What you just said is all right, but the opponent is IG, this one point is enough to dispel everything you just said."

The game continued. Yuan Shen went back to the jungle without using his ultimate, and at the same time signaled to the bottom lane: "The opposing jungler may go to the bottom lane to gank, be careful."

The two players in the bottom lane hid under the tower. Their task in this game was to develop in the lane and perform in team fights. They were not needed to gain an advantage in the lane.

Yuan Shen took the Rift Herald, killed a wave of wild monsters, and returned to the city for supplies.

The opposing Gragas didn't find any opportunities in the bottom lane and could only take down the little dragon.

Thirteen minutes into the game, Yuan Shen was at the top lane again.

At this time, Shangluo Kiin was already struggling in the top lane, and Sion made an Ice Fist!
I remember the commentator said: "This is Theshy's Sion. His Sion often uses Frost Punch, and his laning style is very strong. Most of Ornn's damage is also physical damage, so it is indeed a good idea for Sion to use Frost Punch to deal with him."

Wawa agreed: "Now Ornn is a little hesitant. He didn't go back to the city to replenish supplies, but waited for the minion line under the tower. I feel that he is going to have problems."

The soldiers in the top lane entered the tower, and Ornn, with low health, was under the defensive tower. Yuan Shen's Nightmare decisively used his ultimate move.

"This is the God of War!" Sion also activated his ultimate and rushed towards Ornn.

Ornn used his W skill to offset the impact, Nightmare flew over, and Ornn crashed into the defensive tower.

empty!

Yuan Shen's Nightmare took a small step back and easily avoided the knock-up effect of Ornn's collision.

Nightmare used his E skill on Ornn, and Ornn activated his ultimate, Summoning the Lava God.

Ornn interrupted Sion's Q skill with a basic attack. The Bellows of Fire had just made Sion fragile, which could be used now.

Wawa exclaimed: "Ornn's handling was still so perfect and methodical, but Nightmare used his W skill to invalidate Ornn's ultimate. Ornn was frightened, and Nightmare followed up with the output and took the head!"

Miller commented: "This wave is really a full-scale operation. Kiin is a really unexpected player. Unfortunately, he met Yuan Shen. Now Nightmare is releasing the Rift Herald in the top lane, and the top lane tower is about to be lost."

In the bottom lane, Gragas also wanted to GANK, but Yuan Shen had already sent a signal to the bottom lane in advance.

The bottom lane is very huddled, and Gragas is already in sight.

When the Barrel saw the reaction of the IG bottom lane duo, he knew what was going on, so he chose to show his cards, followed the duo to push the tower, and forced the two IG bottom lane players away.

Soon, the opponent's top lane tower was lost. Theshy's Sion returned to the city for supplies and TPed to the bottom lane to help defend.

I remember the commentator saying, "It's a smart idea. We have to switch lanes anyway, so why not just TP over and defend together? However, Ornn has also TPed over. Now it's four against three. We have to defend these towers."

Yuan Shen is in the upper opposing jungle area, so the bottom lane tower can only be left.

Besides, Yuan Shen doesn’t have a big move, so there’s no point in him going to the bottom lane, and it’s too late.

The two sides exchanged defensive towers, and the duo moved to the middle lane to continue developing.

This is not a problem for IG. It will be easier for the duo to switch to the middle lane.

Fifteen minutes into the game, Yuan Shen called his teammates together: "The little dragon is about to spawn, we can take this team fight."

At this time, Yuan Shen was ambushing in the lower jungle area of ​​the opposite side and had already walked to the bushes opposite the AFS red BUFF.

Wawa commented: "Nightmare seems to be trying to cause trouble, and the opponent doesn't know his position." "AFS also seems to want to fight for the Rift Herald. The duo pushed the line in the middle lane and went down."

Yuan Shen observed the opposing team's position. The jungler and support reached the river first and were clearing the vision. The ADC was a little further back. Karsa put pressure on them and kept pushing the line of troops.

In this case, the opponent's Varus needs to push the line together and cannot leave first.

Yuan Shen realized this was an opportunity!
He chose to continue moving forward, turned on the scan, and walked to the opposite F6 bush.

As expected, there is no vision. The opponent's vision will definitely be placed near the river, after all, they have to fight for the little dragon.

Soon, Varus appeared and walked straight towards Yuan Shen's face.

There was nothing wrong with Varus' choice. If he wanted to go there alone, he had to take a detour, otherwise it would be very dangerous. But it was because of this idea that he put himself in danger.

The AFS fans at the scene became excited and wanted to warn them but it was too late.

Yuan Shen waits until Varus is about to enter the bush, uses Q skill followed by E skill, and uses basic attack to deal damage.

Varus was a beat slow to react. He didn't resist at first and was obviously looking elsewhere.

Immediately afterwards, Varus used his ultimate skill to try to control Yuan Shen, but Yuan Shen used his W skill to counteract it.

Varus used his E skill to slow down the opponent and continued to move forward to find his teammates.

This idea is indeed correct. If you flash directly, the distance is definitely not enough. You need to create some distance first and then flash to interrupt Nightmare's E skill.

Unfortunately, there was not enough time and he was about to be frightened. Varus used Flash, but was still frightened.

Kaisa flew over, and at the same time, Tam's ultimate flew over and swallowed Varus in one bite!

Wawa explained: "The situation suddenly became complicated! Varus was not killed instantly, and at the same time, Ornn approached and used his ultimate skill through the wall!"

"Grand Barrel also wants to come back to help. Luo activated his ultimate and rushed over. Gragas used his ultimate, trying to blow Luo away, but Luo flashed to get close to control Gragas and continued to move forward, making a grand appearance to Tam, who flashed away!"

Both TPs, one red and one blue, have been sent to the river and are about to fall!

“Lift the curtain!”

Yuan Shen's Nightmare used his ultimate skill, and at the moment when Tam spit out Varus, he used the ultimate skill to fly over and deal damage!

Miller commented: "Vairus couldn't hold on any longer, Varus was killed instantly!"

The knock-up effect of Ornn's ultimate was offset by Nightmare's W skill.

Syndra and Akali TPed and landed in the river. Now Tam was trapped from both sides and couldn't handle the damage.

The situation became very complicated. There was no formation between the two sides. You played yours and I played mine. This situation was very favorable for IG!

Theshy's Sion activated his ultimate and rushed over, but was blocked by Ornn's body. The two are now entangled with each other and neither can get through.

On the front battlefield, Rookie's Akali went to find the opposite Syndra, causing Syndra to be afraid to go over to help Gragas and Tam.

He didn't even dare to use his E skill. As long as he used it, he would have no way to stop Akali from attacking his face.

Kai'Sa and Nightmare were attacking Tam, and Tam used his E skill to shield him, but as soon as the shield disappeared, he couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.

Luo made a grand appearance and triggered the flash of Gragas. After the flash, Gragas used the E skill and ran away.

Syndra headed for the middle lane for shelter, while Ornn also tried to leave, flashing out of the way of Sion's Q.

So the two sides pulled away and scored a zero-for-two exchange.

Baolan cheered, "It feels good. Kaisa got a kill, which is crucial. Originally, we were held back by Kaisa's poor development, but now we can make up for it."

Rookie joked: "Don't say it so harshly, it's just being targeted, it's not a drag."

Theshy reminded everyone: "Ornn didn't flash."

Yuan Shen commanded: "Attack the little dragon."

In the commentary booth, Wawa commented: "Yuan Shen's idea for this wave was really good. If it was a five-on-five head-on battle, AFS's lineup would have the strength to fight, but in this teamfight, AFS's lineup was completely torn apart, and each fought on their own. This kind of state is IG's forte."

Miller agreed: "Yes, IG is best at playing this kind of independent battle with the opponent. Their individual abilities and lineup support this."

Twenty minutes into the game, the big dragon refreshed and the third small dragon was about to refresh. Yuan Shen brought his teammates to continue fighting the small dragon, trying to lure out the opponent.

But this time the opponent didn't come out, as if they had realized that they couldn't go out to fight.

Baolan muttered, "It seems they won't come out."

Yuan Shen said, "After we take the little dragon, we will go to the big dragon pit to gain vision. They will definitely come over."

After taking down the little dragon, Yuan Shen took Baolan to the big dragon pit to provide vision.

By the way, light up the upper jungle area of ​​the opponent.

Akali pushed the top lane to the front of the defensive tower and disappeared.

This puts a lot of pressure on AFS, and the duo under the mid lane tower is very dangerous.

In the middle lane, Kaisa pushed the minion line towards the defensive tower, and Varus was about to go up to clear the minion line.

Give one TP to the soldier guarding the tower.

"Lift the curtain!" At the same time, Mengyan activated his ultimate move!
I remember exclaiming, "Did he just do it? So decisive? Nightmare used his ultimate to fly towards Varus, and when he landed, he QAed Varus and he was already overwhelmed!"

"Tam eats Varus in one bite. Nightmare uses his E skill on Tam, who moves forward to block the position. Now Syndra and Ornn can't TP over. Sion's TP lands, and Tam flashes back and takes Varus with him to the bottom of the second tower!"

Wawa continued, "Pushing the tower! IG didn't pursue them, but chose to destroy the tower together. It turned out that this was their goal! When they were about to destroy the tower, AFS had no time to stop them, and they ran away after destroying it!"

The sudden turn of events caught the audience off guard, and the comments in the official live broadcast room were full of jokes:
"What's going on? Are you kidding us?"

"So you were destroying the tower. I thought you were going to end the game in one wave. You were so brutal."

"This is too ridiculous. Is IG deliberately trying to mess with the audience's mentality?"

"I just ask that you haven't reached the Jedi yet, just reach your goal."

After taking down a tower, all the IG players ran away.

Twenty-four minutes into the game, all the ultimates were ready, and Yuan Shen continued to set the pace: "We'll go straight to Baron, they'll come over, and then we'll go find Tam, but Tam didn't flash."

Baolan suddenly realized: "So this is the foreshadowing. First, make the opponent Tam use his flash. Now he doesn't have flash, so if he comes over, he will be dead."

Yuan Shen took Baolan to provide vision, while the others pushed the line.

Everything is ready, the five IG members gather and start fighting!
Wawa commented: "Now AFS has a TP advantage, they choose to spread out and use the TP advantage to pull IG. This trick may work for other teams, but unfortunately, they are IG, they will go straight to the Baron and not play those empty tricks with you."

AFS threw out a divination orb and found out that IG was indeed attacking the Baron and had already destroyed one third of it!
"Quick, gather together, let's go together." (End of this chapter)
