Chapter 320: Hawkshot, A Terrified Orianna

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Congratulations Orianna, you have once again won the prize...” said Miracle, his tone clearly anything but congratulatory.

“What’s with this killing people from thousands of miles away? Team Skycrown’s coach is really too good at seizing opportunities. With the blue buff cutting down on CD, the frequency of Ashe’s ulti will be high. Professional players would be able to avoid an arrow flying straight at their face by using Flash or some other repositioning skill. But it’s hard to avoid this kind of arrow flying out of nowhere without warning.”

“With one ulti stunning your opponent, then followed up by your teammates, and another set of skills...the usually peaceful game has once again been thrown into chaos because of one arrow...”

Two arrows, two kills. And this was on Orianna who was as thin as a bamboo stick.

In the countless matches they had played, Team Revelation rarely had to face Ashe, even in normal games.

It was really hard to be aware of such a sneaky flying arrow when you were in such a tense situation and being pressured so strongly at the bottom lane!

“Bottom lane’s turret has been destroyed, and the Dragon is also probably gone by now,” said Bai Feng, furrowing his eyebrows.

As expected, Aatrox appeared at the bottom lane and paired up with Gragas to take down the bottom lane turret. After taking it down, the duo headed towards the Dragon Pit. Gragas, Aatrox, Thresh, and Ashe all appeared at the Dragon Pit. Even Lee Sin was heading towards the same place.

Originally, the three from Team Revelation could still contest for the Dragon, holding out until Orianna respawned. But once they saw Lee Sin appearing at the middle lane, they immediately gave up the idea of regrouping and retreated instead.

“The speed of Team Skycrown’s Support is astounding, it reminds me of the saying, a ripple in a pond!”

“That’s right, if this was a normal match, killing Orianna would just mean a kill and then push turret. But Team Skycrown’s attitude is completely different. Once Orianna died, Aatrox joined Gragas at the bottom lane to take down the turret. While they were doing this, Lee Sin made his way down from the top lane to support. Lee Sin’s moves are very smooth. You can see that he immediately launched his kick at Baron and followed up with a ward to create more distance between himself and Darius. He basically flew through the walls to run towards the Dragon Pit.”

With five people taking down the Dragon against only three people defending, plus the fact that Darius was still at the Baron Pit... how could Team Revelation hope to stop Team Skycrown?

Zyra and Ezreal didn’t dare get too close to the Dragon Pit. They could only stand by, listening to the sounds of the Dragon roaring as it fought against the five of them...

After getting the Dragon, Team Skycrown scattered, returning to their lanes to continue farming.

Without realizing it, the gold difference between the teams had increased to almost four thousand!

“If my calculations are correct, Ashe’s ulti is almost up!” said Miracle, his voice slightly weak.

The normally peaceful game had already been thrown into chaos twice by that one crystal arrow that marked the start of a blood bath.

It was obvious that Team Skycrown was using Ashe’s ulti as a signal. As long as her ulti was up, they would engage wherever she shot her arrow. At the same time, they would push turret and initiate all the fights!

Team Revelation’s champions were all late game champions. In comparison, Team Skycrown’s champions were all flexible. So it wasn’t really possible for Team Revelation to initiate a big team fight.

In short, following Ashe’s previous uses of her ulti, it was clear that this game was already completely under Team Skycrown’s control!

Miracle could see this, and Team Revelation had also finally realized the significance of Team Skycrown’s lineup.

With Ashe as the signal, they would first instantly kill and push the turret, then control the vision and build up the team’s income.

In other words, as long as Ashe’s ulti CD was over, you needed to stay alert, even if you were under turret!

Team Skycrown had complete vision control. Thresh and Aatrox didn’t even bother using the inferior Sight Ward, and just immediately opted to use Vision Ward.

Counter jungle Team Skycrown?

Impossible, they could clearly see your every move. Plus, Ashe was consistently using Hawkshot, exposing areas on the map with just a wave of her hands.

Team Revelation now understood why Ashe had to be at the middle lane. She was basically acting as the brain hub and controlling the overall situation!

“Orianna you better get your finger ready on your Flash key, Ashe’s ulti is already aiming for you!” said Miracle, falling back into his habit of ribbing.

The game had only been going on for slightly longer than ten minutes and Orianna had already died three times. The situation really could not get any worse.

An Orianna who couldn’t farm to get her items could only contribute by using her ball to shield something!

And she was facing a Gragas that could easily take her head.

In short, if Orianna made just one wrong move and was blown towards Gragas, she would surely die again if she didn’t use Flash.

Miracle was only joking. He had no idea whether Ashe was actually aiming for Orianna.

As long as Ashe was missing from the map vision, you could only wonder whether an arrow would suddenly fly from somewhere...

“Their middle lane is missing, they’re most likely stealing our red buff. Let’s go!” said Bai Feng as he moved.

As their jungle had already been warded by the opponents, the members of Team Revelation, including Orianna, headed towards the red buff from different directions.

Orianna was very cautious. Every step she took forward had to first be scouted out by her ball...

Just as she took a step into the Fog of War, an arrow suddenly burst forward from the darkness!

Qing Ye hesitated a split second and immediately pressed his Flash as soon as he sensed the imminent danger.

This godlike reaction made even Qing Ye admire himself. Think I’ll let you shoot me again? No way!

Poof!

The arrow shattered into countless sparkling crystal pieces as it burst and illuminated the area which was covered by darkness...

On the big screen, Orianna’s timely Flash had avoided Ashe’s R, Enchanted Crystal Arrow... no, wait! It was only her E skill—Hawkshot—that had illuminated the surroundings!

The big screen had completely captured the scene that just played out.

The air was frozen for a moment, and the screen was displaying Orianna who had avoided the hawk spirit with her Flash, now left standing once again in the Fog of War!

“Hahahaha! Oh my god, what did I just see?!” exclaimed Miracle, trying not to laugh too loudly as he held his stomach.

“Uh...” Even Qi Qiao didn’t have any words to say in this situation.

“What a beautiful Flash, avoiding Ashe’s hawk spirit from seeing. Orianna has managed to hide herself in the darkness...”

The entire arena which was quiet suddenly burst into laughter!

“This Orianna, did she get scared till she peed her pants?”

“An E bro, that’s just Ashe’s E, not her ulti!”

“Idiot, is this a professional player? Such a noob mistake, aiyo, I’m gonna die of laughter.”

Qing Ye’s face turned bright red. It couldn’t possibly get any redder!

Mother f*cking sh*t head, you dare to deceive me Ashe!

At this moment, Qing Ye felt like he could die of embarrassment.

Playing in the professional league for so long, he had never once made this kind of noob mistake. Mistakes like pressing the wrong kills, missing his ulti, or even Flashing into a wall couldn’t compare to Flashing away from a skill that didn’t do any damage! It was such a stupid blunder!

Qing Ye was mentally cursing and repeatedly stabbing that b*astard Yu Luocheng.

Even Team Skycrown and Yu Luocheng himself were left wide-eyed. The tense atmosphere was broken by laughter due to the godlike control displayed by Orianna.

What an unexpectedly f*cking amazing outcome!

Yu Luocheng had released the skill for vision purposes, as he felt that Orianna was somewhere there. He didn’t expect that she would be so paranoid to the extent that she would throw out a Flash.

Okay, you win Orianna. Since you overestimate me so much, how can I not continue to aim my ulti at you?

***

With vision control in Team Skycrown’s hands, Team Revelation didn’t dare to initiate a fight against them in the jungle. More importantly, that asshole Lee Sin had arrived to give support, while Darius was still pushing turret at the top lane. Even if he came down to fight against Lee Sin, it wasn’t like he could win.

At the fifteen-minute mark, it was coincidentally time for the Dragon to respawn. As Team Skycrown headed into the jungle, their plan was obvious. They clearly wanted to take their second Dragon!

“Plant a ward and get ready to contest, we can’t go on like this!” said Bai Feng, gritting his teeth.

Hao Yue nodded his head seriously. This was similar to the Jungle Suppression tactic. Team Skycrown would use Ashe to initiate, kill one, and then push turret. After they built the advantage for the team, they would then use wards to control the jungle area.

Once they controlled the jungle area, they would continue to catch the champions who were alone. Through Lee Sin’s maneuver, they would surround them and gain the upper hand with their greater numbers.

Once the situation was a 5v5, they would disengage immediately. Even if you tried, you wouldn’t be able to keep any of them there.

At this rate, the gold difference between the teams would reach ten thousand in less than twenty minutes. By then, Ashe would have built up her items and Gragas’ poke would be stronger, so Team Skycrown wouldn’t lose even in a team fight. It was basically GG for Team Revelation!

***

Hao Yue had positioned himself accordingly, knowing that Team SKycrown would be gathered right outside the pit if they intended to take the Dragon. Even without vision, he knew that his instincts were right.

Orianna threw her Magic Ball on him along with her Protect. When Zac used his ulti together with Orianna’s ulti, the chances of winning this team fight was high, as long as they could retain two opponents.

Elastic Slingshot!

Zac, who had been hiding in a blind spot, launched himself out decisively.

Orianna’s shield from her Magic Ball was on him, and following Zac’s launch, their vision was also cleared—they could see Aatrox landing the last blow on Dragon.

He could hit both Aatrox and Thresh!

Hao Yue’s heart fluttered with excitement, he had gambled correctly on these positions.

Just as Zac was about to land at his destination to knock up Aatrox and Thresh, Wu Sen suddenly reacted at the speed of light, sweeping his chain around him using Flay!

Zac who was still mid-air was pushed away by Thresh’s chains, his body landing far away from the ongoing fight.

“Beautiful, such a beautiful counter. Team Skycrown’s Support has given us a classic display of using his Flay!” said Miracle, his face full of excitement at the scene.

Thresh’s E—Flay—could disrupt most of the gap closing skills. If timed properly, he could even disrupt Malphite’s ulti!

The corner of Wu Sen’s mouth curved up slightly, under the guidance of such a godlike Support like Yu Luocheng, how could he not improve?

Yu Luocheng’s expectations of Wu Sen’s Thresh was high, to the point where he would even need to interrupt Diana’s Lunar Rush dash. So this kind of slow launch from Zac was barely a challenge for him at all!

If you dare to fly over, I will cut you off. Why the f*ck do you think I picked Thresh? It was precisely for team fights, in which all I need to do is mindlessly block Zac’s skills!
