You Call This 'Steady'?

Unbelievable. If this guy's shots were that accurate, why call him AK? Even if he didn't like the one-shot-one-kill style of snipers, he could've at least picked a name related to rapid-fire snipers.

Sniper? The Pak 42 88mm gun was often used like a sniper rifle in North Africa. One shot, one Crusader tank from over a thousand meters away. As long as the firepower coverage was wide enough, who the hell cared about your one-shot precision?

The famous scene of spotting enemies from a thousand miles away returned, instantly igniting the atmosphere in both the venue and the livestream once more.

Even V5's own comms were flooded with "666," and 369 nearly wanted to kneel before him. If his Jayce had his own AD's skillshot accuracy, what top laner in the world couldn't he crush?

"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"

"Xiao Zhen, how did you do that? That was fucking insane!"

"I really don't understand why Angel didn't call a pause. He was so calm. Did he go through World War II or something?"

"Black Screen the moment he recalled. Maybe even he didn't realize what happened?"

In truth, Angel really hadn't reacted. In the final seconds of his recall, before he even noticed Ezreal had used his ultimate, he had instinctively opened his Equipment Slot.

Then his screen went black.

He had no idea what had happened at all. By the time he came to his senses, all that remained on-screen were his teammates' question mark pings going wild.

"Actually, it's simple. Just study math, physics, and chemistry well enough." Luo Zhen calmly picked up the cup on the table, all while reminding himself that his movements had to be proper and elegant. Who knew how many cameras were pointed at him? Then he said, "I've faced many situations like this before. But whenever I opened my advanced mathematics textbook to look, there was no solution to this problem. Every crooked page was filled with the words 'solve for x, calculate y.' I couldn't sleep no matter how I lay there. After staring at it for half the night, I finally saw between the lines that the whole book only contained two words: 'I guessed.'"

The V5 members: Huh?

"Yes, you heard that right. I guessed."

Luo Zhen had wanted to confidently say, "Everything was within my calculations," but in reality, before making that prediction, he had simply remembered a famous line Uzi had once said in a vlog: "Whenever you can make a play, you have to make it. A misplay only gets you flamed, but if you pull it off, you become a god!"

One ultimate couldn't affect the overall situation.

But successfully predicting it meant the birth of another personal Famous Scene.

If anyone on the field had been the most shocked at that moment, it was undoubtedly Theshy. In fact, ever since the first game, Rookie and Theshy had been observing each other's ADs.

And the more Theshy watched, the more he saw JKL's shadow in Luo Zhen.

Of course, there were differences too.

He didn't take Qs, but he didn't have JKL's overwhelming Laning Phase pressure either.

He was steady, yet he hadn't lost his Opportunity Grasping Ability or creativity.

From God's perspective, Luo Zhen's performance in Game Three naturally wasn't as eye-catching as Huan Feng's performance in Game Two. But only by being deep in the game could one truly feel the terrifying despair brought by Luo Zhen's Ezreal in Game Three.

Just like how only the enemy's diving Hero had the right to judge whether a Soft Support was good or not.

So this was your choice, Rookie?

Corki died, and WBG's attempt to start a rhythm through Corki's Yordle Snap Trap fell apart immediately. In a 5v4, WBG didn't dare stop V5 from entering the river and taking vision. And vision was far too important when fighting for Map Resources in the early game.

WBG already had no way to defend against the enemy's Poke Flow. Now that they had lost control of vision as well, even with Old Driver Sion as their Engage Support, they didn't dare start a Team fight rashly. No one knew whether a hammer would suddenly swing out from some corner and instantly take one of them down. That would be downright ridiculous.

So WBG could only retreat.

And with that retreat, they gave up the Second Rift Herald for free.

With the power of two Rift Heralds gathered, V5 directly smashed through WBG's Mid Outer Tower defense line.

"Kill, kill, kill, brothers! Even if I must bear a repeating crossbow on my back and hold a Gu Ding Saber in one hand, my Ezreal remains invincible in this world! Fire!!!"

Once the Mid Lane Turret fell, it didn't just mean WBG would lose a huge section of their jungle. There was another key point too: the second turret would be even harder to defend against V5's Poke Flow, because the terrain there was too narrow.

Why?

Because they couldn't charge out. Azir could directly place a Solar Disk near their outer turret, forcibly shrinking both sides' available space. If they charged forward, it became six versus five. If they didn't charge forward, it became ARAM, with V5's long-range composition hitting WBG's Short-range composition. Either way, they lost out.

And V5 side was currently completely fired up.

What was the most satisfying thing for young people nowadays?

Having a good meal.

Get paid, have a good meal. Have something to celebrate, have a good meal. Feel unhappy, have a good meal. They wanted a good meal for practically everything. So what had WBG done?

After forcibly dragging V5's mealtime all the way until after Game Three, there was a situation in Left 4 Dead that perfectly described the consequences:

The witch had been disturbed.

What Was This, If Not a...

What was the most important thing about a Poke Flow composition?

Tempo.

In ordinary Ranked Matches, everyone had more or less played Poke Flow compositions before. Since their core items could generally come together quickly and their power curves were usually strongest in the early to mid game, they could often build up an advantage fast.

So why couldn't they win their Ranked Matches normally?

Because people played games to have fun. Once they got an advantage, they wanted to mess around. They would often spend ages chasing someone just because they wanted a kill, wasting time and slowing the tempo. An Elemental Dragon they could have taken at twenty-five minutes might get delayed until thirty. A Baron Nashor they could have secured in their twenties might get dragged out until they were wiped, realized they were about to lose, and only then went to take it.

But competition was different. The premise of a match was victory. So in a match, the most important thing for a Poke Flow composition was tempo, and the most lethal thing was also tempo.

V5's tempo was correct right now.

Because they had tested that Elemental Dragons accelerated the trigger for the strategic point, they gave up the first dragon.

Because they knew they needed to fight in the early to mid game, they firmly controlled both Rift Heralds and took down the Mid Tower.

WBG was gradually losing patience.

Jayce and Ezreal's damage would both peak around their Three Item Set. This was when their Poke Flow damage was at its highest and WBG generally hadn't completed defensive items yet. If they really dragged it out until then, WBG even believed V5 would start Baron Nashor immediately after poking them low in a single wave.

So what could they do?

Engage, and force an engage!

The spawning time of the Three Elemental Dragons, combined with the narrow river terrain, was WBG's only chance to break V5's Operation Rhythm.

"They should engage this fight."

After glancing at the situation on the field, Rookie and Karsa thought it over briefly and understood that the enemy would most likely start a Team fight against them here. Azir's Solar Disk was on the lane, and charging under a turret while behind would be nothing but feeding.

"How are everyone's items?"

"We can take it, but it depends on how Corki uses the Yordle Snap Trap." Luo Zhen glanced at the Divine Separation, Manamune, and Lord Dominik's Regards components in his inventory and felt they should be able to fight this.

The only variable was Corki.

His Yordle Snap Trap placement in Game One had been extremely tricky. If Luo Zhen hadn't secretly gone for six attacks per second and caught them off guard, they might not have been able to snowball that first game.

"It's fine. I'll watch him. Just focus on Poke Flow!"

Karsa was confident in stopping the enemy's engage. The confidence unique to Hammer Form Tristana made him fearless against anyone on the opposing side.

Very soon, with the third Elemental Dragon about to spawn, the players from both sides occupied opposite sides of the river and began Kiting. In this position, Jayce and Ezreal were incredibly comfortable.

After all.

With ten people in the river, they could hit whoever looked the most pleasing to the eye. What was this, if not a group orgy?

But this time, the enemy clearly had no intention of giving V5 many opportunities to poke. Theshy engaged directly! When Old Driver's horn blared across the Rift, everyone finally remembered the many legends of the Mount Akina car god:

Some people had been driving for years, but had only held their licenses for one.

Some people drove Mercedes while young and accomplished, so love would not come too late. Some drove BMWs while young and accomplished, so they didn't need to play with planes themselves. Some drove Porsches while young and accomplished, making every day Valentine's Day. Some drove CT5s while young and accomplished, dancing on gold-medal technicians every year.

And then there were a very few others: he drove to deliver tofu, and his girlfriend delivered tofu too.

Theshy belonged to that extremely rare category.

With no woman in his heart, he transformed directly into a Mud Truck and rammed straight toward Jayce. Seeing this, Rookie immediately used EQ to turn and block in front of Jayce, then fiercely cast his ultimate, [Wall of the Imperial Guard], forward.

In League of Legends, only a handful of champions could block Old Driver's ultimate: Anivia counted as one, Jarvan IV counted as one, Camille counted as one, and the Azir Rookie had picked this game counted as one. Since they had chosen a triple-Poke Flow composition, how could they possibly have made no preparations against an engage?

Sion was knocked away, but Theshy didn't feel disappointed in the slightest.

He knew it was normal for him to be pushed away. But... all he had wanted was to force the enemy carries to stand closer together.

Corki came charging in with the Yordle Snap Trap!

Unlike the frontal charge Karsa had imagined, Angel had secretly Teleported behind them this time. He activated the Yordle Snap Trap from a flanking rear position. From that angle, Poppy had no time to fall back and stop Corki from entering the fight.

As flames rained down from the sky, V5's formation was instantly split into two by the fire.

It was over!

With their formation broken, this Team fight could only become a scattered battle. And that meant WBG truly had the possibility of creating miracles in this fight.

Sion tanked at the front, Corki used Second W to search for the best space to deal damage, Rakan charged in as the second Engage Support when Corki moved forward, and Viego had long been lurking in the scorched ground, waiting hungrily.

Everything seemed to be fine.

Until Theshy had tanked for several seconds and realized his HP was dropping several times faster than the enemy's. Only then did he finally sense that something was wrong.

Then he turned around.

He discovered, to his shock, that behind his own formation, their AD Xayah had been successfully picked off alone by the enemy Ezreal and had even been forced to use her ultimate.

What was going on?

In fact, forget Theshy—even Huan Feng himself hadn't expected things to develop like this. Sion and Corki had started a great fight. As long as he followed up with damage or landed a good E, they should have had a chance in this fight.

But at the exact moment Rakan charged in first and he prepared to Follow Up afterward—

An extremely dazzling Piercing Barrage swept straight across his body. Before he could even react to what had happened, the next moment, that unmistakable standard Little Blondie of Ezreal suddenly appeared beside him.

The enemy Ezreal had actually chosen to dive the backline alone as an assassin!

Was this guy insane?

In a 1v1, when Ezreal hadn't stacked his passive, Xayah—with both her ultimate and Caitlyn's R available—was not afraid to solo him at all.

The problem was that after finishing a full combo, Luo Zhen casually put Exhaust on him.

Huan Feng completely lost it.

He had imagined ten thousand reasons why the enemy AD might take Exhaust. Maybe it was for holding people during the Laning Phase. Maybe it was to defend against dives in Team fights. But he had never imagined that the Exhaust would be used to dive the Backline during a Team fight.

With this playstyle, why the fuck were you even playing AD?

With no other choice, Huan Feng could only activate Feather Rain and pull himself up with his ultimate, trying to use the invulnerability period to negate Exhaust's effects. But just as his ultimate ended, in the final second before the Exhaust state would wear off—

The enemy Ezreal suddenly turned around and walked away.

Huan Feng: ???

What did that mean?

You were the one who flirted with me, and you were the one who lit the fire. Now that you've stirred me up, you suddenly put your pants back on and planned to run away?

Hmph, scumbag!

Just as Huan Feng gathered himself and prepared to drain every last bit of ammunition from the enemy Ezreal after landing, a terrifying ripple appeared out of nowhere in the next second and shot toward Xayah at an unimaginable speed.

Wait... this was!

Huan Feng's eyes widened. He finally recognized what this wave of energy was. He desperately tried to press Flash, but the stream of information traveling from his visual nerves to his reaction nerves ultimately couldn't outrun this carefully planned ambush.

Poppy ultimate—Heroic Charge locked onto its target.

Then...

"Then don't come back!!!"

This Was a Top ADC's Daily Training

From the moment the grounded Xayah was blasted away by Poppy's hammer, the ending of the Team fight had already entered its final stage.

Because WBG no longer had enough damage.

This was where professional players' coordination and instinct showed. The instant Karsa realized he had no way to stop Corki from entering the fight, he had already begun looking across the map for a chance to salvage the situation. And in that moment, he saw Luo Zhen's ping.

It might not have been easy to swing the hammer on the frontal battlefield. Since everyone knew he had that move, they would definitely look for ways to interrupt or dodge it.

But the battlefield behind enemy lines was different.

Ezreal drew aggro and forced out Xayah's ultimate. Poppy swung his hammer at the perfect moment and waited for Xayah to land. Everything was completed through unspoken coordination without any communication, and the smoothness of their connection even made Karsa feel a little exhilarated.

Then came the decisive hammer blow!

Holy shit, Karsa!!!

I'm convinced. Karsa camping there was one thing, but how did this AK run straight into their backline again?
