Although Yasso had died and they had lost the vanguard, Kiana had not only cooperated with her teammates to take down the first blood tower, but she had also forcefully jumped over the tower to attack Afterglow, allowing Kesha to K-head successfully. As a result, G2 had not been able to gain a substantial economic advantage.
After taking down two towers at the bottom lane, Li Xu had taken out his Twilight Blade and an additional serrated dagger. At this point in time, he could kill almost everyone except for Aun.
After taking down the opponent's outer tower at the bottom lane, SKT shifted their focus to the bottom lane and successfully controlled the Earthen Dragon that spawned after 14 minutes.
At this point in time, Yasso, Wine Barrel, and Kiana were too strong in the jungle. G2's vision in the bottom lane was completely dark, so they did not have the courage to fight for the Dragon.
After taking down SKT's tower, G2 decided to shift the duo to the middle lane. Ryze from Caps started to sneak in and attack from the flanks, while Aun from Wunder stayed at the bottom lane to defend. SKT could not find an opportunity to attack.
G2 had a lot of vision in the top lane. With Ryze's big moves, Li Xu and his teammates had tried to attack Cap King twice but failed. In the middle lane, Afterglow was safe under the protection of Gário and Princes in the jungle.
Since they could not find an opportunity, SKT was not in a hurry. They waited for the next Earthen Dragon to spawn.
As Li Xu was wasting time trying to coordinate with his teammates to catch Ryze, Aun had already sent the creeps into the blue tower by the time they reached the bottom lane.
Li Xu went up and used EQA's Electrocution. However, Aun had already used Ice Fist, Cloth Boots, and Small Anti-Armor. Kiana's damage on Aun could not be considered a scratch, but the effect was not obvious. This was even when Li Xu's economy was much higher than Aun's.
After being hit by a set of military boxing by Li Xu, Aun immediately called for his sheep to defend the tower and counterattack.
The moment he saw Aoun's actions, Li Xu knew that someone was coming from the other side. He decisively took a step to the right and aimed for the time when Aoun's sheep head rushed over. He reached out and grabbed the Grass Elemental in the direction of the Triangle Grass on the left, just in time to avoid Aoun's two-part sheep head.
Jankos' Princes came out from the wall under the Triangle Grass. When he saw that Aun's big move had missed, he immediately turned around and left.
Aun had already attracted the aggro of the defense tower when he used his ultimate skill. Jankos could not directly use his ultimate skill when his EQ was down. Otherwise, Kiana's ultimate skill would definitely kill both of them.
Of course, the main reason was that the Grass Elemental in Kiana's hand was too strong. As long as the tower used its Q skill, Kiana would not be one-shot by the two of them.
Li Xu also thought very clearly. Even if Aun was on the top of the tower, he did not directly use his ultimate skill to force Aun to stay.
Wunder's Bellows Flame Breath and his E skill Blazing Charge were still in hand. Obviously, he wanted to trick Kiana to pull away after using her ultimate skill. Once Kiana's ultimate skill was used, there would be no threat to counterattack. When Gário leaned down, Princes would definitely block the back path and carry out the second wave of tower.
G2's wave of attack was resolved by Li Xu. On the contrary, Yasso and Wine Barrel took the opportunity to lead the minions to destroy the blue tower that did not have much health left.
Furthermore, Luo and Kesha took the initiative to lean toward the top half of the blue tower after clearing the minions. They covered Yasso as he continued to advance toward the second tower.
As G2 saw that Nakano Fujiwara had gone to the bottom lane to look for Kiana, Ryze and Dusk, who were left in the top half of the blue tower, did not dare to defend the tower. Thus, they let go of the second tower in the top lane.
SKT did not expect that while they had not found an opportunity to take the initiative, their opponents would take the initiative to attack and reveal a flaw.
After suffering a loss, G2 finally learned their lesson. They obediently waited for Dusk and Ryze to develop and did not take the initiative to cause trouble.
19 minutes later, the Earthen Dragon respawned. SKT, who had a good view, immediately started to fight the Dragon.
Ze Yuan said, "Aoun has shown himself up there, so SKT can start fighting the Dragon. I don't really want to put G2 in this position. Aoun TP over here, do you really want to take on this wave?"
Remember: "They also know that it will be difficult for SKT to take two Earthen Dragons, but Wunder's TP went too late. Can he make it in time? "
Aun's TP went down and landed in the bushes along the river. However, due to the lack of vision, G2 could only move toward the small Dragon pit step by step.
SKT's speed in fighting the Dragon was too fast. Before the blue team could get close, the small Dragon had already been killed.
The blue team was also very decisive. Dusk turned around and cleared the minions that had just arrived in the middle lane. The rest of them stood near the bushes along the river and blocked off the red team's position. Dusk then went to the red team's middle lane tower.
Li Xu had already gone around the blue team's red BUFF pit to hide. He was prepared to go around the back when the fight started. However, G2 dilly-dallied and let go of the Earthen Dragon. This made Kiana feel very awkward.
With their vision blocked, SKT did not dare to attack recklessly. Heroes like Luo and Kiana had to go around the back to show their strength. It was very stupid to directly walk in front of the opponent and start a team fight.
There was no other choice. SKT's members could only go around the middle lane from the jungle. Dusk had already taken the opportunity to take down the red team's middle lane tower.
Ze Yuan said, "You can see that G2 is also very decisive in executing their strategy. When the Earthen Dragon was being rushed, they turned around and took advantage of the time difference to take down SKT's middle tower. Exchanging the Earthen Dragon for the middle tower is not a big loss."
Remember: "Luckily, SKT was rational enough to not attack Dusk and Ryze. If they did not attack properly, they would have been counter-attacked. Aun, Princes, and Gário's counter-attacks were too good."
Wang Duoduo: "These two teams are very decisive in their decision to exchange resources for this match. If we were to say that the two LPL teams had a very obvious fighting style in yesterday's semifinals, then today's two teams are clearly studying the art of war. Until now, they still haven't fought a single large group battle, but there have already been multiple resource exchanges."
Li Xu was a little disappointed that this wave did not start. Now that he had three armor-piercing equipment, Twilight Blade, Dream's Spirit, and Sawtooth Dagger, he could not find an opportunity to use them. It was very depressing.
Two minutes later, just as Li Xu rushed to the bottom lane to clear the creeps that Aun had sent to the bottom of the tower, he saw Ryze farming crabs in the bottom lane.
"Catch Ryze, catch Ryze."
After calling out to his teammates, Li Xu continued to clear the creeps in front of Aun.
At this time, he was in the opponent's field of vision. If he rashly moved closer to the river, Ryze would definitely be alerted.
Caps did not know that his every move was being monitored by the red team. When Ryze finished farming the crabs and ran to the bushes in the middle of the river, Clid's Wine Barrel and Yasso rushed out from the bushes behind the blue buff.
Without saying a word, Clid immediately activated E Meat Bomb Impact.
As the distance was sufficient, Clid did not want to give the opponent time to react. He used Flash the moment the E skill animation appeared.
Caps did not have time to react and was sent flying.
Yasso took the big hit and Wine Barrel added damage. Ryze fell to the ground and was instantly killed.
