Chapter 35: Five Against One! The Yellow-Skinned Iron Shell with No Way to Escape!
Chapter 35: Five Against One! The Yellow-Skinned Iron Shell with No Way Out!
Following this, the entire TES team turned into sniveling cowards.
Wherever they could endure, they endured.
You want the jungle? Take it.
You want the minion wave? Take it.
You want the Tier 1 turret? Take that too.
They conceded everything. They simply refused to engage in a fight.
Speed increased by 85%!
"If they secure the high bounty on the Blitzcrank, then pivot to Baron, IG's other members—who aren't particularly well-fed—might not be able to stop them. TES has launched a surprise raid, sounding the horn for a comeback. You have to admit, when it comes to playing with their backs against the wall, TES still has the guts to fight."
With a level gap of over five levels and almost no magic resistance built, possessing only a pitiful pair of Mercury's Treads, the Blitzcrank was in trouble.
Sivir and Morgana emerged slowly from in front of their own Tier 2 turret.
A surge of overlapping damage erupted, and with a whimper, Morgana collapsed to the ground!
Five against one!
"Is there any possibility—I'm just saying, if—that the Blitzcrank could actually pull off a one-versus-five and escape?" the chat began to buzz.
The voice comms within TES were filled with roars; there wasn't a single person who didn't loathe this yellow-skinned iron shell.
The time hit 21 minutes.
Accompanied by Sivir’s roar, her ultimate provided a speed boost to the whole team, rapidly closing in on the Blitzcrank.
Just as the four members of IG were working together to push the mid lane, the Blitzcrank had greedily stayed for one extra wave in the top lane and was now near the enemy's top Tier 2 turret.
TheShy: "..."
Having spent the early game running amok with high movement speed and causing chaos all over Summoner's Rift, the Blitzcrank now found himself in a predicament.
The robot looked like a solid hunk of iron, but with his ability-power build, he was as fragile as paper. His health was instantly chunked down to execution range.
"You'll be lucky to even trade for a Morgana!" 369, clearly noticing this, maneuvered his Cho'Gath to stand firm in the only possible direction for the Blitzcrank to escape, completely sealing off any hope of survival.
TES's cowardice had value. It would be better to just have the four of them group up in the mid lane and push the Tier 2 turret.
"You four keep pushing the turrets; I’m going to go fight them."
Rookie: "..."
Leaving the minion wave meant falling behind in experience.
In the game, IG's support, Cheng Xian, who was sitting firmly in his seat, smiled silently.
"Kill him!! Kill him and take Baron!! We can turn this game around!!!"
Now, he had no wings to fly away!
This was a true one-versus-five!
This was the team's designated 'Big Daddy'! If the daddy fell, the Baron was gone too.
"Brother, this is a professional match!"
"Use whatever you've got!! Kill him!!!"
"This time, Shaqima is done for," Guan Zeyuan shook his head as he saw the Blitzcrank surrounded by five people.
By the time the others rushed over, he would already be dead.
Even with a massive gear advantage, you can't win a one-versus-five in a professional match!
Beset on all sides!
Silence!
Static Field!
Saving the Blitzcrank, honestly, didn't mean much.
With only a sliver of health left, the situation was dire!
"Die!! Just die!!!"
Cheng Xian knew the consequences. Almost the exact moment the Volibear’s claw hit his face, he realized he was in trouble!
The Volibear’s Q ability had a stun effect. Once he was pinned, even if a script were playing the character, he wouldn't be able to escape.
Just when everyone thought the Blitzcrank was doomed, he faced the low-health Tristana and pressed the Q ability he had been holding onto.
Sivir, Tristana, and Morgana.
Without the protection of a turret, and with the Volibear hiding his Q ability before leaping in with his ultimate!
Wrapped in crackling thunder, the Volibear’s frame grew larger, like a god of thunder descending from the sky, landing right on top of the Blitzcrank.
Auto-attack followed by E!
Xun: "..."
Even though Zhuo, after the Blitzcrank’s ultimate ended, quickly shielded himself with Black Shield and used his ultimate to slow the robot down, it was too late.
The Blitzcrank’s R ability had strong AP scaling, and combined with his 25-stack Mejai's Soulstealer and the fatal penetration of his Void Staff, it was devastating.
At this moment, the Blitzcrank’s health was like a roller coaster, plummeting to the bottom!
One mid-laner, one support. Both were squishy!
Cheng Xian was fully focused, his hand gripping the mouse.
*Whoosh!*
A flash of gold!
Cheng Xian decisively flashed backward, dodging the Volibear’s Q, distancing himself from the Cho'Gath near the top Tier 1 turret, and diving into the backline of TES.
Because Sivir’s spell shield only required one button press, JackeyLove reacted at the limit, activating his E to immune the burst damage from the Blitzcrank’s ultimate.
But the damage was already done.
The commentary booth was in an uproar.
In the nearby raptor brush, two more people jumped out.
The Cho'Gath was approaching from behind.
Sivir threw her bouncing blade, lightning danced on the Volibear, and Tristana had attached her Explosive Charge (E) to the Blitzcrank.
But it was too late.
Rocket Grab!
With 1000 + 1500 in gold, plus 40 points of combined offensive bonuses, and the Baron buff strengthening the minions, they had intended to take Baron, but now they would use the momentum to break the enemy's inhibitor turret! They would try their best to recoup the losses.
Although he instantly killed one, he was still surrounded.
All of them were at low health.
The Blitzcrank’s body emitted a massive amount of white steam.
Just as he was about to leave after clearing the wave.
He had barely escaped one disaster.
At 21 minutes, the exceptionally well-fed Blitzcrank had already reached level 13.
But the damage from the rest of the TES team arrived like a torrential storm.
The massive body moved with agile, nimble steps.
Countless spikes erupted from beneath the Blitzcrank’s feet!
"I'll lock him down!" 369, his frustration having nowhere to vent, raised his Cho'Gath claws from afar and stomped the ground hard.
But the current situation was completely different from his previous one-versus-two, one-versus-three, or two-versus-four fights.
Even the elusive Blitzcrank could do nothing against this team that had suddenly turned cowardly.
Wink: "..."
"Bye-bye."
The Blitzcrank’s health bars dropped straight to zero!
Cheng Xian was fully focused.
*Clack.*
He tapped the W key.
Overdrive!
But Tristana and Morgana were clearly not as lucky.
The potential gain was at least 5,000 gold!
The 'last stand' in the top lane had begun!
As the director locked the camera onto the top lane, every spectator's eyes were glued to the screen.
"He can't run! No matter what, he cannot run!!"
You dare to do this...
Do you think you're playing in an Iron-tier game... trying to solo-fight a team...
Meanwhile, the rest of the IG team panicked when they saw the Blitzcrank surrounded.
Since that's the case, I'll start with you!
"Brother Xian, can you hold on? We're coming to support!" Just as Wink spoke, he heard a sentence in his headset that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
At this moment, Morgana was only at a pitiful level 8.
And the Blitzcrank, who had just finished clearing the wave, was heading toward the enemy's top Tier 2 turret.
Even with a massive gear advantage, you can't one-versus-five in a professional match!
"Looks like they are determined to kill the Blitzcrank this time!" Tongxi said softly.
The Cho'Gath, the furthest away, was also rushing toward the center of the fight.
The Mid-lane Tristana and the Volibear.
"This wave, Shaqima is likely finished." Guan Zeyuan shook his head as he saw the Blitzcrank surrounded by five people.
