The Steel Throne (Completed) - Chapter 5：Teamwork

Red ran from the elf. He knew it wasn’t wise to run into an opponent gank. No matter how powerful he was, he could win the fight alone.

He used Ice Phoenix’s flight ability to move faster, but the elf was also nimble. She jumped between the tree branch. Red tried to run and made a sudden turn to lose the pursuers. However, it is hard with another opponent also behind him.

“OH, MY GOD! It is one versus two, but it will soon turn into one versus three. The phoenix FUCKED!!! FUCKED!!! It would become the first blood.”

[Oh!] Red saw the Troll Shaman in front of him. It used its second skill, Stun Bomb.

“YEAHHHHH!!! Stun Bomb!!! Stun Bomb!!! A stunning skill for the disabler. Will we get a first kill of the match?”

While in the old MOBA game, a character locked attack almost couldn’t be avoided. In the Steel Throne, there was no character locked attack. One needed to control their power for the distance and target the direction of the attack.

It sounded complicated, but everything was controlled using your own mind. This also made humanoid characters easier to control.

“Oh! Oh! Oh!” The Ice Phoenix managed to evade the Stun Bomb. Impossible! Impossible! This is impossible. Wait! It is not over. Venomous Viper had found the situation, he comes to help.”

Red ran until he saw a big red snake over five-meter-tall, his teammates.

“Sorry, Jason. I lost the Troll Shaman.” Rehaan said in the team communication channel.

“Could we get more backup?” Red asked in the same communication channel.

“I can go to your place with Matteo.” Andi, the team support said.

“We will turn the battle in your direction.” Red decided. He turned his Phoenix back. “Rehaan, could you stun the Shaman?”

“Defend yourself. Try to buy some time!”

Red turned by rotating his body like a swimmer and flew through the opponent rain of attacks. All missed.

“Ice Pillar!” A cold voice was heard from the phoenix added with a bird cry. Red used his second skill Ice Pillar to separate the enemy. The opponent Troll Shaman in one side and the elf and the dwarf in the other side.

“What a brilliant move, the disabler was separated from the squad. However, it is not over for the phoenix. WOW!!! WOW!!! The Viper ambushed the troll. Poison Bite!! The Troll is bitten. WHO IS TROLLING NOW? That is the Viper second skill. It would randomly stun, poison, and slow. It was a hard-to-aim skill. However, being trapped by the pillar, it is easy. Now the table turned.”

“Dwarf Healer came to heal the troll. While the elf chased after the running away Phoenix. Beautiful!!”

Red flew toward the bottom lane. There were Andi and Matteo there while Merlin occupied the dwarf former spot. While Matteo character wasn’t strong in the beginning, this battle was a gank.

Red rolled in the air to avoid multiple skill attack from Red. The elf tried to aim.

“Triple Shot!” The elf tried to shoot Red. However Red could sense using his instinct the danger. Flying above the tree allowed him to check behind.

“Blink!” The elf teleported near Red. “Triple Shot!”

“Kwaaaak…” Red felt it was painful. A player would feel some pains from the enemy attack. However, after some fatal accidents, the government ordered all game developers to limit the pain signal to the neural system.

The elf became happier when she found Red got hit. Red lost his speed from the slowing effect. She sent some normal attacks to injury Red.

Red, however, suddenly turned his position. The elf quickly chased her, but from her left side, she heard a voice.

“Earth Bash!!” A bass voice heard. A walking panda jumped and slammed the area around the Elf. From behind an Angel cast some buffs to Pandarium Monk. Pandarium Monk’s skills were mostly passive. Those skills would increase its attack speed. Therefore, it needed some top equipment to perform.

Red returned and use his Ice Wave to slow the Elf. It reduced huge part of the elf’s health point, HP. Red knew it almost died, so he returned to help Rehaan. He was fighting two versus one.

After some buffing, the Angel jump backward. She went to the bottom lane to intercept the Merlin, the carry from V-Light. They would prioritize the experience point and gold for Pandarium Monk. Their carry unit.

“OH NO!!! OH No!!!! NO!!!!!!!!! That is the first kill. First Blood. That is the first blood in the match. We could not imagine the Pandarium managed to kill the Elf. It will be a big turning point. Now the Pandarium got the needed golds and experiences. A superb teamwork from P-Tigre. This is a fight. This is a fight. Oh! Fuck, I bet on the V-Light now. Shit!!!”

Red came back to the Viper. Rehaan had managed to survive the onslaught of two opponents. The was because it was still early. So, most characters wouldn’t have all the necessary skills. Both only tried to use their AoE attack to reduce opponent health point.

“Ice Pillar.” Red used the same tactic, he separated the disabler and the support. He attacked the support. The Dwarf was bulky and could receive some damage.

However, that was not Red’s main target. He saw the almost die Troll Shaman and flew between the dwarf and the troll.

“Oh! Not again! Not again! Ice Wave!!!!!!! The Phoenix deal damage to both opponents. Reds played as the nuker now. He reduces another huge point from both his opponents. The Viper continued with his Tail Whip. It is a cone area attack for mob control, but it would prove fatal to these almost die opponent.”

“OH, SHIT SHIT SHIT!!! Do you see that? Double Kill!!! Two characters die in an attack. The Viper and the Phoenix got the tempo. P-Tigre had number advantage now. Merlin ran into the jungle. While Iron Golem intercepts Devotion Crusader in the top lane.”

“This is another Gank! Four versus one. Merlin returned as a bashed old man. Another kill from the Pandarium. The Panda had started to get enough gold for equipment. What is his build? The critical ones. This would be dangerous for V-Light.”

“Now the gank goes to the top lane. The elf almost returned, but… Oh God, the Crusader also returned home as a martyr. They attacked the tower in the top lane now…”

“P-Tigre managed to destroy two towers before the V-Light team started to resurrect. The troll shaman using his Flame Bomb managed to kill all the creeps. As a pusher, he managed to gain the lane back. However, it isn’t over…”

“A BATTLE!!! A BIG ONE IN THE MIDDLE LANE. Four from V-Light versus five from P-Tigre. Oh No… Oh No… Killed again. The Troll was stunned by the Venomous Viper. It would be hard. It would be hard without a good battle opening. The Pandarium managed to get enough equipment from his three kills. Another kill from the Phoenix, the Elf died.”

“OH, SHIT SHIT! Grappling Hook! From the Iron Golem. He grabbed the runaway, Merlin. Another gank! Another wizard returned FUCKED!!! This would be fatal. Their carry was killed in the opening. It will be a quick match. The gold difference is too far and the P-Tigre still had tower advantage.”

“The tiger pushed in the middle. Iron Golem tanked the tower damage. Phoenix and Panda attacked the tower. Destroyed!!!! Destroyed!!! Fire in the mid lane!!!! Fire in the mid lane!!!”

“If you win the mid lane, you will win the match mantra. Only Devotion Crusader and Dwarf Healer in the mid lane. They couldn’t defend against the high-spirited tiger. Devotion Crusader couldn’t buy the time for his allies. Another down.”

Red flew through the mid-lane. He saw another tower while the Dwarf ran into the tower. The dwarf was buffing himself.

“I will try to hook him!” Rodrigo said. As a tanker, he could survive under a tower attack a bit longer.

“Oh, Shit! He threw his Grappling Hook again! Got the dwarf. The Dwarf was taken into the middle of the P-Tigre team. Another die. Die. Die. Die. Die. Why did I bet on this V-Light? Where is the victory, Fucker? I am sorry, I lost my control like usual.”

Rodrigo moved his golem to tank the tower, while Rehaan used his first skill to kill the creep quickly.

“Oh God! All towers in the middle were gone. P-Tigre middle lane creeps would get a boost in their power. BIG CREEP now. It’s CREEPING me!”

“It is a clear path to the base of V-Light. Oh, SHIT! Why did I pick the V-Light for this match?”

Red saw a huge tower in the middle of the base. That was the base of his opponent team.

“Attack!!!” Rodrigo went first to tank the base’s attack using Iron Golem. While Matteo’s Pandarium got a buff from Andi’s Shining Angel.

“Look! At that damage! The Pandarium is powerful if you get him all the necessary equipment. A critical and a quarter bar is gone. The V-Light started to resurrect…”

“But too late!!! Too Late Fucker!!! You made me lose money! Virgin-Light!!! This time the Phoenix fucked the V-Light! The key moment was the failed ambush in the beginning. It went downhill after that! They lost elf, troll, and dwarf quickly. While the P-Tigre managed to gank the opponent.”

“It is two versus one. Will we get a more exciting math on the fourth math? Your beloved fucked commentator just lost some money! Please help me by donating the Steel Coin to my account! This is CRUSEboy, ah FUCK YOU, V-Light!!!”
