The spectacular dragon steal in League of Legends. A complete accident or a planned action?
One of the players stole the dragon from his opponents in an interesting way. They were not ready for it.
Dragons and Baron Nashor are one of the most important targets on the map. They are also the strongest neutral monsters on Summoner’s Rift. Both Dragons and Nashor give the team different buffs, so it’s no wonder everyone wants to fight for these Objectives.
It is not uncommon that the fight is uneven, because one of the teams does not have a full squad (someone died in the previous fight or will not be able to reach the designated place on time). Fighting directly is extremely risky then, so a good option is to try to grab a dragon or a Baron by stealing it.
You can do it in many ways – be it with a ranged ultimate, or by jumping into the monster’s cavity and using Smite quickly.
The hero of today’s video did it differently because he used one of the runes for it. It is difficult to say if everything was calculated or if it happened by chance. Anyway – the effect was spectacular.
Ziggs’ dragon steal
A player with the nickname BurdPitt published a short video showing the fight for the Elder Dragon. The red team tries to kill the dragon while Ziggs sneaks behind the wall. The hero hopes that he will manage to steal the monster, so when the target is low on health, he throws one of his skills at him. This, unfortunately, is not enough. Fortunately, a moment after using the skill, an Arcane Comet flies towards the dragon.
As you can guess, the comet turns out to be incredibly lucky, because it is its hit that kills the dragon and its capture is assigned to the blue team.
Many players appreciated the above video, especially its editing, which commenters say is really fun. Ziggs looks very pleased with himself in it. It is hardly surprising. Virtually everyone would be proud of such an action.
