Chapter 636
Five Kills for JS!
Su Mo opened the store and tapped away rapidly.
Just build the attack speed boots directly!
Noon quiver + pickaxe.
They even added a longsword.
Although the first Mythic item, [Siren Slayer], hasn't been synthesized yet, at this point in time, the damage output of a Blademaster equipped with this item is simply incomprehensible.
"Mozi's equipment this time is too luxurious." Miller glanced at the equipment bar. "Attack speed boots plus so many other items, killing people is really just a matter of a few hits. And the most important thing is that he also has Flash and Teleport available."
After buying the equipment, Su Mo immediately pinged the location of the Rift Herald.
"Come on, let's take the Herald. This time we're not going to push lanes, let's go straight for team fights."
"Huh? We're already team fighting?" Jiejie asked, somewhat surprised. "Bro, shouldn't your Master Yi carry the entire lane?"
"Pushing the lane is too slow." Su Mo, controlling the Sword Saint, stepped out of the fountain, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light. "I'm going to twist their heads off and use them as footballs."
JDG clearly recognized the importance of this vanguard team fight.
If this incredibly fed Sword Saint gets the Rift Herald and destroys the top lane's first or even second tower, JDG's jungle will be completely overrun.
"We have to take this!" Kanavi gritted his teeth. "Ruler has the Kraken components, and our Titan and Monkey King both have ultimates, so our control chain is strong. As long as we can shut down Juggernaut, we can win!"
369 looked at the cloth armor shoes and Little Ice Heart he had just made in his hands, swallowed hard, and said, "Then... I'll go to the front row?"
"Just make sure your ultimate doesn't miss!" Knight shouted.
10 minutes.
The Rift Herald has spawned.
Ten people from both sides gathered in the river.
The air was thick with the tension of an imminent major battle.
In the commentary booth, Guan Zeyuan took a deep breath and began to speak faster:
"Alright! Both sides have arrived at the river! This is a crucial team fight for the vanguard! JDG doesn't want to give up, they've gathered five players! Ruler's Jinx is positioned far back, and Missing's Lulu is sticking to her every inch!"
"On EDG's side, Mozi's Master Yi is looking for an opportunity on the flank! But he's very fragile. If he enters the fray at the wrong time and gets caught in a crowd control effect from a Titan or Wukong, he might melt instantly!"
The battle for visibility along the river was exceptionally fierce.
Meiko's Thresh attempted to hook, but was blocked by Nautilus.
Scout's Lissandra is positioned above the Dragon Pit.
suddenly!
Kanavi's monkey moved!
He used W [True and False Monkey King] to become invisible, and then used E [Soaring Assault] to charge directly at Aphelios, who was positioned slightly ahead!
"It's open!! Kanavi has started a group buy!!"
Monkey R [Havoc in Heaven] Share this now!
Viper reacted extremely quickly, using the force of a gust of wind to pull himself back.
But Knight's Nautilus followed closely, flashing and using Q [Clear the Channel] to hook Thresh, who was forced to reposition by Wukong, and then using R [Deep Sea Impact] to lock down Aphelios!
"Headshot locked! Viper's been broken! JDG's objective is clear: kill the AD carry first!"
Ruler's Jinx unleashed a barrage of attacks from behind, using her W to slow down enemies and unleashing a machine gun barrage.
EDG's formation was instantly broken up.
Jiejie's Fryego was forced to enter the field to counterattack, trying to cut down the monkey.
Amidst this chaos.
Everyone overlooked one position.
Behind JDG, in that bush where there is no vision.
A figure wearing multi-lens goggles silently observed all of this.
Su Mo's finger hovered over the R key.
He is waiting.
Wait until Titan uses his ultimate ability.
Wait until the monkey uses its second R attack.
Wait until Lulu uses her sheep transformation spell.
Just as Kanavi's monkey used its second R to knock up Jiejie, Missing's Lulu used Polymorph on Lissandra who had entered the fray.
Su Mo's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Now!"
R—[Highland Bloodline]!
Open!
"Hey!!!"
A furious roar echoed throughout the canyon!
The Sword Saint was enveloped in red blood energy, and his movement speed increased dramatically. Like a red lightning bolt, he suddenly rushed out from the side bushes!
He has only one target—Jinx!
"The Sword Saint has entered the fray!! Brother Mozi is cutting into the backline!!" Remember roared.
Ruler felt a chill run down his spine when he saw the mad dog-like figure charging towards him, and instinctively threw an E-clamp at his feet.
Trying to trap me?
Su Mo's lips curled into a cold smile.
Just as he was about to step on the trap.
Q—[Alpha Raid]!
His form vanished!
Transformed into four sword beams, they pierced through Jinx, Lulu, and the two minions beside them!
Landing!
The position was right behind Jinx, perfectly avoiding the trap!
E – [Limitless Sword Path] activated!
Basic attack!
True damage!
Basic attack!
Dual Blades Passive!
Siren Slayer unleashes devastating damage!
Ruler's health bar disappeared by more than half in an instant, as if by magic!
"Save me! Save me!!" Ruler cried out in terror.
Missing Lulu quickly used her ultimate skill, "Wild Growth," in an attempt to knock up the Sword Saint and save her life.
But Su Mo's reaction was outrageously fast.
The instant Lulu raised her hand to use her ultimate, he pressed the newly refreshed Q!
An AWA has appeared!
Crit!
Ruler was instantly slashed to the ground!
"Damn it!! Jinx is down!!"
With Ruler's fall, the duration of Master Yi's "Highland Blood" is refreshed! The cooldown of his Q skill is greatly reduced!
Su Mo's Sword Saint has now completely turned into a mad dog!
He turned to look at Lulu beside him.
A! A! Q!
There are no fancy maneuvers, just simple basic attacks!
But in the face of real harm, all beings are equal!
Double Kill!
Lulu collapsed!
At this moment, the monkey, the titan, and the gragas on the front had just finished dealing with EDG's front line when they turned around and found their base had been raided!
Seeing the swordsman charging towards him, glowing red and fully healed, wielding his sword, 369 closed his eyes in despair.
"That's why I don't play with meat..."
"A pentakill! Did you get a pentakill?!" Miller had already stood up.
Su Mo rushed towards the remaining three.
The light of Alpha's surprise attack shone brightly once again.
At this moment, on the London arena, it seemed that only that green sword shadow and that chilling sound of the blade remained!
The remaining three were like lambs to the slaughter.
Knight's Titan had just used all his abilities to engage Aphelios and was currently in a cooldown period. Seeing the fully healed Juggernaut charging towards him, he instinctively tried to use a basic attack to immobilize him.
But against the Blademaster who had activated [Highland Bloodline], the Titan's clumsy arm-raising motion seemed like it was in slow motion.
Su Mo didn't give him a chance to answer.
Move and chop!
Using his high movement speed, Su Mo took a small step and circled around to Titan's side, avoiding Titan's frontal attack range, his longsword becoming a phantom.
A! A!
Siren Slayer triggered! True damage!
Q skill [Alpha Strike] is off cooldown!
At this moment, Kanavi's monkey wanted to come to the rescue, and W went invisible to try to ambush.
Su Mo's eyes were cold. Even without his eyes, he made a judgment based on his top-notch sense of smell.
Instead of using Q on the low-health Titan, it directly targeted the Monkey King who had just appeared!
"Shh!"
The sword flashed.
Alpha's attack passed through both Titan and Monkey simultaneously.
Titan died instantly!
Triple Kill!
Kanavi's monkey was still at half health, but against a Master Yi with full stacks of Lethal Tempo and Kraken Slayer, even with the passive armor bonus, it was as fragile as paper.
A! A! Dual swords!
Su Mo didn't even bother to move around; he just stood there and attacked!
That's the charm of the Sword Saint. When equipment and level give you a crushing advantage, all other actions become superfluous, leaving only the brutal aesthetics of numerical superiority!
Quadra Kill!
Quadra kill!!
The entire Copper Box Stadium erupted in cheers!
All eyes were on the last survivor—369's barrel.
At this moment, 369, heavily pregnant, desperately ran towards the top lane river bush. He still had his E skill, [Meatball Impact], in his hand, his last straw for survival.
"Pentakill! Pentakill!!"
In the commentary booth, Ji De's voice cracked from shouting, "Can you give it to us! Will you give it to 369 or not?!"
The acceleration effect after Su Mo activated his ultimate skill was still there, like an F1 race car catching up with an elderly mobility scooter.
Just as Su Mo got close to the wine barrel...
369 has moved!
He turned around and used his E skill, trying to stun the Master Yi, and then use Flash to escape.
This isn't even a prediction; it's a survival instinct born from muscle memory.
However, Su Mo seemed to have seen through his thoughts long ago.
It happened in those fractions of a second when the barrel's belly bulged out.
Su Mo pressed the Q key!
Q skill refreshed again!
"Alpha Strike!"
Unselectable!
Gragas's E skill crashed straight into a green phantom, hitting nothing!
The next second, the Sword Saint's figure descended behind the barrel like the Grim Reaper.
The ignition effect continues to burn.
A!
Siren's true damage!
The final blow!
369 stared at the black and white screen, took his hands off the keyboard, and slumped into his chair.
PENTA KILL!
The system notification sound echoed throughout Summoner's Rift, reverberating in everyone's ears.
"A pentakill!!! A pentakill in the MSI finals!!"
Guan Zeyuan held his head in his hands, his face full of disbelief: "11 minutes! A pentakill with the Sword Saint! How can this match even be played? This isn't a match anymore, it's a smurfing session in ranked games!"
Miller shook his head repeatedly, exclaiming, "That's too exaggerated... really too exaggerated. Mozi's Master Yi not only crushed JDG, but also shattered everyone's expectations. Who says Master Yi can't be played in competitions? That's because you're not good enough!"
The barrage of comments had become so dense that the screen was no longer visible.
I'm speechless!
Is this the LPL's "mad dog" mentality? I love it!
[369: I was terrified.]
[A pentakill with Master Yi in 11 minutes, and it's with Siren and Berserker's Greaves! The game is over!]
This isn't just a sword saint, this is a sword god!
[Who just said that Mozi's choice of Sword Saint was a sign of tanking? Come out and take your punishment!]
……
After securing a pentakill, Su Mo, with the help of his teammates, easily took down the Rift Herald.
The rest of the match became a one-man show for Su Mo.
In 13 minutes, he had the Kraken Slayer and a Sheepstick set.
Su Mo immediately sent the vanguard to push the top lane.
369 dared not defend the tower and could only abandon it and flee.
In 15 minutes, Su Mo single-handedly cleared the second tower, gaining a 3-level lead over the entire field.
JDG attempted to organize a gank on the side lane.
Knight (Titan), Kanavi (Monkey), and 369 (Gragas) – the three of them came to catch him.
As a result, Su Mo activated his ultimate skill and instead of running away, he charged in the opposite direction!
Use Q skill to dodge Titan's ultimate, use high movement speed to dodge Gragas' ultimate, and then it's just a simple set of basic attacks.
Chopping melons and cutting vegetables!
Triple Kill!
Another triple kill!
JDG's mentality has completely collapsed.
This Sword Saint is like an unstoppable boss. Not only does he deal high damage, but his Alpha Strike invincibility mechanic completely renders JDG's aggressive engage composition powerless.
21 minutes.
EDG secured Baron Nashor.
Su Mo's Sword Saint has already crafted a four-piece set: [Siren Slayer], [Guinsoo's Rageblade], [Blade of the Ruined King], and [Dance of Death].
Just looking at this equipment makes me feel pain.
Pushing into the high ground with the Baron buff.
JDG still wants to fight to the death.
But Su Mo only used his Q skill to enter the fray, instantly melting Jinx, who was at full health.
There is no room for maneuver.
With Ruler's fall, JDG's last line of defense collapsed.
"One wave! One wave!"
Amidst the cheers of his teammates, Su Mo barely exerted any effort before JDG's base crystal shattered into pieces under the Sword Saint's dual blades.
Victory!
The first game ended at 23 minutes.
This was only after Su Mo delayed the situation a little while in order to kill a few more people.
……
Return to the lounge.
"Brother Mozi! Awesome!!" Jiejie rushed over to massage Su Mo's shoulders. "This Sword Saint is so awesome! I don't even need to farm the jungle, I can just follow you around and get assists!"
Su Mo smiled and took a sip of water, his expression remaining calm: "Basic stuff, don't be ridiculous. It's mainly because 369 was too cooperative, choosing a barrel for me to use as a punching bag."
Abu was beaming with joy. Although the Sword Saint's move was a bit risky, the effect was surprisingly good.
"JDG will definitely ban Master Yi in the next game," Abu said, looking at the strategy board. "They're on the blue side, so they'll definitely pick the meta champions. We need to be prepared."
Su Mo leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes to rest, and smiled slightly: "Ban them. There are plenty of heroes in my pool that are more disgusting than Master Yi."
……
After a short break, the second game began.
JDG opted to switch sides, moving to the red side.
Clearly, they felt that the blue team's first-pick advantage was not very useful against Su Mo's vast hero pool, so it would be better to leave a counter pick for 369, so that he could withstand the pressure more comfortably.
BP begins.
Learning from T1's experience and the painful lesson learned in the previous game, JDG continues to target the top lane with their bans.
JDG Bans: Master Yi, Jayce, Fiora.
"As expected, they banned Master Yi!" Remember laughed. "This time, 369 doesn't want to see that bespectacled madman again."
EDG Bans: Vi, Ahri, Lulu.
EDG's first pick: Aphelios.
Now that they've switched to the blue side, Viper still picked up this core AD carry.
JDG countered with a pick: Zephyr + Yuumi.
The classic "cat and mouse" combination, focusing on the later stages.
Both sides proceeded with the selection of personnel in an orderly manner.
Until the final top lane matchup.
JDG picked Ornn for 369 on the fourth floor.
“Ornn!” Guan Zeyuan analyzed, “This is 369’s most confident tank pick. This champion is more durable than Gragas, can farm items, and has more crowd control in team fights. Moreover, as long as Ornn can survive in lane, he is very difficult to solo kill.”
The pressure has reached the fifth floor of EDG.
Su Mo looked at Orn, who was banging on the anvil, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
"Choosing meat again?"
"Looks like I haven't had enough of the true damage from the last game."
Su Mo turned to the factory manager: "Since he wants to play with this kind of cumbersome tank, then I'll give him a more agile one that's specifically designed to counter tanks."
"Which one?" the factory manager asked.
"Let us hunt down those who have fallen into darkness," Su Mo murmured his lines.
On the screen, the image of a female hero wearing sunglasses and carrying a giant crossbow lit up.
Vayne, the Night Hunter!
"Vayne?!"
The scene erupted in uproar once again.
"Top lane Vayne!!" Miller exclaimed, "She's really going all out with her tank-killing style! Last game she played Master Yi, this game she's playing Vayne! She's not giving 369 any chance to survive!"
"That's amazing!" Rita covered her mouth and laughed. "Ornn is most afraid of Vayne. With the true damage of her three-hit passive, plus Vayne's agile movement, Ornn's skills can't hit him at all, and he can only passively take the hits."
Roster confirmed:
EDG (Blue Side): Top lane Vayne, Jungle Sejuani, Mid lane Galio, ADC Aphelios, Support Nautilus.
JDG (Red Side): Top laner Ornn, jungler Blade of the Ruined King, mid laner Syndra, ADC Zyra, support Yuumi.
The game begins. (End of Chapter)
