Chapter 362: This is the End

Five Champions stood at the outer boundary of their base. The players from Team Guangzhou were all looking at their team captain, waiting for his word. Goalie looked at his minimap and grumbled. Everything was going wrong, and just when they needed to scale a bit more to win this game, Team Shanghai forced their hand again. He said through gritted teeth, We fight.

Team Guangzhou moved into action, bringing all the wards they could carry. Seo and Goalie also bought two scrying orbs. The first was used to reveal the Baron pit. It confirmed Team Shanghai hadnt yet started fighting the strongest boss monster. The second scrying orb was used to gain intel on the top side of the Jungle, near the Wraith Camp. It exposed Morgana and Sejuani, who started retreating.

Goalie said over the teams voice chat, We push. Leona, vision ward here he pinged on the brush that connected most of the top side Jungle with the mid lane. ... and ward here, here and there. He continued pinging on the top side Jungle, pointing out every brush and nook he wanted vision on. All the while, Leona had her Oracle Lens active, revealing the wards from Team Shanghai which the others from Team Guangzhou destroyed.

Goalie watched his minimap and panned his camera around the map. We need to play this right. Its still a bit early, but if we play this right We just need to get that Riven down fast. He took a long, deep breath and then said in broken Chinese over the teams voice chat, Leona no exhaust. No fight her. Drag, drag, drag! He then turned his head to look at Seo and continued in Korean, I want you to stay back. It doesnt matter if you dont get damage off at the start of it. We just need to make sure Riven doesnt get that initial jump on you. From there I trust you can outplay them all?

Seo nodded, glaring at his monitor. He replied, I can and I will! He ground his teeth and clenched his fists. Im gonna get the stupid Kalista bitch first and then that Jungler one. I dont care what her Champion is! Their team sucks! They all fucking suck! Suck! SUCK! SUCK--

Remember! Biggest threat Riven! Goalie reminded everyone over the teams voice chat. He explained, She damage, others not. I kill Kalista.

Zephyr shifted around in his seat at the caster desk, nervous. Excited. He leaned towards his microphone and said, Team Guangzhou has come out of their base! And like I predicted, Team Guangzhou is quite strong! Team Shanghai agrees and decides to give up control over Team Guangzhous top side Jungle!

Not exactly, Su Xue replied. She pointed at the bot lane and continued, Team Shanghai still has Dr. Mundo pushing the bot lane. Of course they arent engaging a 4vs5! Just wait until Team Guangzhou has to respond to the Dr. Mundo!

Zephyr looked at the minimap and smiled. He grabbed his microphone and said, This is gonna be good! Fiora is meeting Mundo in the bot lane! Both Champions have their Teleport up! Its gonna be a game of who is the better Teleporter! This could be the game-deciding teamfight and it looks like its all going to come down to who gets the drop on the other team with a brilliant Teleport!

Su Xue nodded with her eyebrows raised. True, true, she said. Very possible. Yes. Or, and hear me out here, this fight will be won by the best player! I wont be naming names, but Im foreseeing a certain player winning this fight all by him-- er, or herself!

Now that! That would be something to watch! Zephyr exclaimed, laughing.

An Xin pressed the Tab key and looked through the most recent item upgrades on Team Guangzhous Champions. She then said over the teams voice chat, Lin Feng, dont engage this one. Vaynes got a Quicksilver Sash. Shell just cleanse your stun. Let us engage first.

Dont worry! Dont worry! Lin Feng replied, laughing. He scratched the back of his head and continued, I was planning to just jump their backline and kill them all! And I dont really care if Vayne has a QSS or not Ive got Flash and Ignite! He isnt surviving!

An Xin shook her head and rolled her eyes, then turned to look at Tang Bingyao and continued, Tang Tang, I need you to be careful too. Fizz or Fiora is going to jump on you. Save your ultimate for when that happens. Be ready to outplay them. Just that bit more and then you can rest your finger a bit, okay?

Tang Bingyao nodded and replied, Mhm! Okay!

An Xin looked past Tang Bingyao at Zeng Rui and was about to give him his tasks, when he beat her to it. He said over the teams voice chat, Ill do my best to keep my Black Shield ready for Riven. We cant lose her.

Zhang Hao looked at his teammates, his Dr. Mundo farming in the bot lane, and suggested, If you guys get a few deep wards back up, Ill try and Teleport behind them. Once I get their attention, Lin Feng can jump in and win the fight!

I like the sound of that! An Xin replied, nodding. She then turned her head to look at Lin Feng and asked, What do you think? Easy enough right? Hack sword, get kills, win fight. Even a goldfish like you can do that!

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and breathed in, staring at his monitor. Weve played around long enough! Im going to make those guys remember my promise to them! No one will remember who they are! He grinned and said over the teams voice chat, No worries! Penta kill coming right up!

The Blue Team has destroyed a Turret!

Nice work, Zhang Hao! An Xin exclaimed. She smiled and added, Just keep pushing to the inner tower now! See how far you can get!

Zhang Hao nodded and replied, Yeah! But I cant really push the next tower. Fiora is there and I cant lose too much health towerdiving her or I wont be able to come around later I think Ill just throw cleavers at her from outside tower range. Be a nuisance and all!

Mm-mhm, Lin Feng replied, though he wasnt really listening to Zhang Hao. He was slowly entering the zone. The scrying orb Team Guangzhou had used earlier had dropped a ward inside the Baron Pit. He used the first two casts from Broken Wings to move towards it and destroy it. Then he moved to the wall at the far back of the Baron pit and activated the third cast from Broken Wings. His Riven leaped over the wall and hacked down on the Jungle ground beyond!

Summoners Rift appeared inside Lin Fengs mind. A perfect visual representation. He glanced at the minimap and filled in where Team Shanghais Champions were, and then what he knew about Team Guangzhou. Fiora is in bot. Then weve got Leona and Lee trying to get vision at the river entrance right below the Baron pit. They can only do that if Fizz is nearby for protection. Vayne cant be too far away either, probably back a bit Hmm, shes doing the Wraith Camp. A bit of extra gold and its right next to the river entrance.

An Xin glanced at Lin Feng and noticed the focus with which he was staring at his monitor. She asked, Are you seeing a flank?

No, Lin Feng replied. He shook his head and explained, Theyre playing it really safe. If I go in right now, you guys wont be able to follow up in time. And 1vs4 is suicidal, even for me! He continued scanning the river and the top side Jungle. He tried out possibilities in his mind and considered their chances of success. Wait. Wait. He panned his camera over the Red Buff Camp and scrunched his eyebrows. He asked, Anyone know if they warded Red?

Zeng Rui frowned and said, You want to go all the way around there? Thats even further away from us! How are we supposed to follow up on that? He shook his head and pinged on the Jungle entrance where Lee Sin and Leona were. He continued, If we start pushing them here, theyll know something is up. Theyre going to be searching for you. It wont work.

No, no! Its fine! Dont worry about pushing! Lin Feng replied. He laughed and said, Ill engage. You guys just follow up from there!

Wowowow! Look at Riven! Whats she doing there!?Haha! What the fuck! Hes gone sightseeing in Team Guangzhous Jungle!Holy shit! Shes going for the flank! Thats sick if she can pull it off!No way thats gonna work. Shes far too deep! Whats she thinking!?When Team Guangzhou sees her, they can just switch to her This aint gonna workFuck me, what a waste! They couldve just done a 5vs5 and won it!

Oh boy, oh boy! Zephyr exclaimed. He pushed his microphone against his lips and said, Look at that Riven! Some balls shes got! But you know something? I think its brilliant! Team Guangzhou has been trying to get wards in their Jungle, but theyve had to prioritize a path towards the Baron pit and that brush Riven is in is really out of the way! Theyve got no idea shes in there! Imagine if Vayne goes there to ward it! Thatd be game over!

Su Xue clenched her fists and mumbled, Do it, Lin Feng! Get them! She then reached for her microphone and said, Just imagine a Riven suddenly jumping your backline from behind you! This is totally gonna work!

Eeeh, Zephyr replied, hesitating. He shook his head and explained, I dont know. I can think about two clear problems. First off, Riven is way too far away from her teammates. If Team Guangzhou gets the engage Well, you get the idea. On top of that, Team Guangzhou is going to realize Riven is missing. Its pretty damn obvious she isnt with the rest of her team.

Goalie moved his lips around, panning his camera across the river. Wheres Riven? We havent seen her Last we saw of her, she cleared the ward in the Baron pit He narrowed his eyes and moved his camera towards the Baron pit. You can jump the wall and then you can go to the Red Buff Camp and continue to flank us He chuckled and shook his head. Yeah, youre that kind of player. Alright, two can play that game! You wanna circle behind us? Lets make you completely irrelevant! He ordered over the teams voice chat, Go in! ENGAGE!

Fiora retreated just far enough behind her inner tower so that Zhang Haos Dr. Mundo didnt have vision on her. She then panned her camera to a ward that was placed inside Team Shanghais top side Jungle and started teleporting towards it. A red pillar of light descended on the ward which was in Team Shanghais fog of war!

Zephyr jumped to his feet and leaned over the desk, leaning on it with one hand and clutching the microphone with the other. He shouted, Fiora is getting the flank! Team Shanghai hasn't got a clue!

See!? Told you so! Riven is way out of position! Now Team Guangzhou easily wins this!Mundo doesnt know! He isnt teleporting! Oh my god, MUNDO! MUNDO! TP!This is going to be a 5vs3! Shit! Im almost feeling bad for Team Shanghai!Theyre gonna lose this one because of Riven! Feels fucking bad man!Gg to Team Guangzhou! Weve got ourselves a series!

Kalista! Kalista! Kalista! Goalie ordered over Team Guangzhous voice chat.

Team Guangzhous Leona suddenly flashed into the river and pointed her sword up at the sky, calling down a Solar Flare! The beam of light slammed down on top of Tang Bingyaos Kalista and An Xins Sejuani, stunning them both!

Lee Sin hopped to a ward in the river with Safeguard and then struck out with his fist--Sonic Wave! A pressurized blast of air shot forward and struck Sejuani! Resonating Strike! He dashed at Sejuani and gave her a swift kick!

Goalies Fizz was too far away from the fight, so he flashed forward to bridge the gap. He followed up with Chum the Waters! Fizz threw out a small fish that struck Kalista! It started swimming around her, a portal to the deep opening up beneath her! A shadow moved in the depths of the water.

Zeng Rui warned over the teams voice chat, Tang Tang! Go mid! Fiora is behind us! Escape mid! He stopped thinking about protecting Lin Fengs Riven and started worrying about helping Tang Bingyao survive. He had his Morgana cast her Black Shield on Tang Bingyaos Kalista and then ordered, Zhang Hao! Teleport!

Coming! Zhang Hao replied. He stopped walking and teleported to the ward closest to Tang Bingyaos Kalista. Any plan about finding a flank was gone out of the window. The only important thing right now was to make sure that Tang Bingyaos Kalista survived the initial engage.

Tang Bingyao waited for the fish from Fizzs Chum the Waters to hit her. She then activated her Quicksilver Sash! A cleansing light wrapped around Kalista and both broke the stun from Leonas Solar Flare as well as freed her from the fish! She then followed Zeng Ruis orders, running towards the mid lane.

Kalista broke free from everything! Su Xue exclaimed into her microphone. She sat up a bit straighter and continued, She had the QSS and broke free! But Fiora is still behind her! Shes coming from behind! This is bad! This is all kinds of bad for Team Shanghai!

WOOOO! SHES STILL DEAD!GET HER, FIORA!COME ON, KALISTA!

Zeng Rui flicked his mouse towards Team Guangzhous Morgana and tapped the Q key. A Dark Binding conjured from dark magic struck Fiora and rooted her! Zeng Rui then shouted, Run, Tang Tang, run!

Team Guangzhous Lee Sin and Fizz were right on top of An Xins Sejuani. She didnt think, just smashed the R key! Glacial Prison! Sejuani threw a True Ice bola at the two from Team Guangzhou. It struck Lee Sin and froze him in place. But Goalie had cast Playful just in time for his Fizz to hop on top of his trident and use the brief moment of invincibility to dodge both the effects and the damage of the Glacial Prison!

He dodged it! He dodged it! Zephyr screamed into his microphone. I cant believe it! He dodged it!

Those reflexes! DAMN!HOW!? HOW!?That was WOW!

Goalie stared at his monitor, unblinking. Focused. You first, Kalista. He watched Tang Bingyaos Kalista Flash away from him, very much like he expected. It was what hed been waiting for before casting the second half of his E skill. Trickster! His Fizz hopped off his trident towards Tang Bingyaos Kalista! He followed up with Urchin Strike, dashing through her and stabbing at her with his trident! He then cast Ignite on Kalista, the unquenchable flames blazing to life on her skin, before activating his last remaining skill. Seastone Trident! An aura wrapped around his trident and boosted its power!

An Xin barreled forward with Arctic Assault, trying to reach Tang Bingyaos Kalista and help her survive. But in her rush, she paid no attention to Seos Vayne appearing in the river, not her position right next to the Jungle wall. A thick, massive bolt slammed into her, knocked her off her feet and then pinned her to the wall. She was stunned!

Team Shanghai is getting destroyed! Zephyr exclaimed. He shook his head, incredulous, and continued, Theyre getting torn apart! Theyve looked so good all game, but this fight is all about Team Guangzhou! Theyve practically won already!

Su Xue bit on her lips and nodded. She said into her microphone, Hmm. It was a good engage by Team Guangzhou. A 5vs3. There isnt much Team Shanghai can do to stop that. Dr. Mundo just arrived. But I dont see that changing much either Lin Feng, where are you?

Zeng Rui wasnt shotcalling like he usually did. This fight wasnt his. He hadnt come up with the tactic, nor with the scenarios in case of a fallout. He was in the dark, unsure of what to do. An Xin glanced at him and saw him struggle. She grimaced and then said over the teams voice chat, Zhang Hao, pin Fiora down! Good! Zeng Rui, you, stop trying to help Tang Tang. Shes dead. Focus on their backline. Lock down what you can. Damage control. Damage control! She finally turned her head to look at Lin Feng and urged, Lin Feng, I need you to hurry! Its almost too late!

Almost there! Lin Feng replied, grinning. He had his Riven run past the Wraith Camp towards the river. The players from Team Guangzhou were just ahead of him, not paying any attention to him at all. He pressed the R key to activate Blade of the Exile! Green, runic energy burst from Rivens body! It coated her skin, boosting her stats, and reforged her broken blade! Lin Feng then locked onto Seo, his grin broadening. He lightly tapped the keys with his left and tightened his hold on the mouse, mumbling, Weve only just begun!
