Chapter 5, Jungler, take a look!
The posture was numb. He frantically marked Lu Chen's wandering mage, muttering to himself, "Brothers, I'm not exaggerating, this wandering mage is really something. Who can time their basic attacks like this? He's even better than a pro."
As Zita finished speaking, the chat in his live stream exploded with comments once again.
[If you can't beat them, just fight?]
[After being pulled around until you're numb, you accuse the other side of cheating?]
[I'm laughing so hard, is this what the streamer meant by "Viktor's poop sucking"?]
[My god, that enemy Rogue is really something! He baited out skills, and after the shield disappeared, he used his attack range and rune root to counterattack, managing to auto-attack Huni's favorite son down to one health potion.]
[To reiterate, the only contribution this streamer has made in the professional scene for so long is raising Huni's market value.]
...
Seeing these comments, he showed no mercy and immediately banned the chat for 365 days. At the same time, he straightened his back, cleared his throat, and calmed himself down before speaking.
"The streamer was just careless and let the other side use a potion, so you won't say I'm bullying them. Now watch my performance."
Meanwhile, the number of viewers behind Lu Chen is growing, and the discussions surrounding him are endless.
"Holy crap, you can play like this against Viktor? You're never too old to learn!"
"Awesome, bro."
Hearing these words, Lu Chen smiled slightly, "This is easy to do. Just make good use of the 25 yards longer attack range that the Wanderer has compared to Viktor."
Take a look.
Is this even human language?
It has to be said that after reaching the maximum proficiency level with the hero Rogue, Lu Chen felt that he had become much stronger, and then the minion wave converged.
He and Zitai were back on equal footing. Viktor recovered his condition with the help of a health potion, while Lu Chen thought for a moment and decided to go up despite Viktor's siphon energy.
"What do you mean? You think I'd fall for that again?"
He squinted, having just been hit by a combo, but he was prepared. He figured he just needed to avoid the extra basic attack from the siphon energy.
A 600-yard cast range is much longer than Ryze's range, so getting a free Q is good too. As for Ryze's rune root, so be it.
After he releases his siphon energy, he will have a shield that can completely block attacks from the Wanderer and minions, but not from the Wanderer.
Furthermore, he planned to press forward after releasing the siphon energy, giving Lu Chen no chance to use his attack range to pull him away.
If he manages to land a QAA combo, the extra auto-attack damage plus Thunder Strike, Lu Chen won't be able to touch the lane until he recovers his health with a potion. His stance will definitely secure level 2 first.
But then, just as he was about to unleash a siphon of energy, he found himself unable to move anymore; Lu Chen's rune imprisonment had appeared on his body.
615 yards vs. 600 yards.
The advantage lies with me!
Seeing this, Lu Chen's lips curled up, and he immediately pulled back a little, but did not completely remove the soldier's aggro.
"Damn it! Why is the W distance so long for the Wanderer?!" Zitai roared.
"That's how you play!" Zita realized. "That enemy Ryze is really cunning. He's trying to use his casting range to hit me while drawing aggro from our creeps."
"This way, our minions will attack him, and his minions will continue to attack our minions, giving us a health advantage on the minion wave."
He spoke with utmost concentration, "This is a master, brothers, I'm getting serious!"
In the blink of an eye, he immediately controlled Viktor to press forward. Lu Chen's Wanderer had no skills, but he still had Siphon Energy in his hands, so he was definitely going to take advantage of the vacuum period.
However, Lu Chen did not retreat. The arrival of Viktor in his stance was exactly what he wanted. Viktor had one more health potion than Viktor, so this round could be a complete exchange of blows, even if it meant losing a little.
Because he was gaining an advantage in the minion wave, and seeing Zita pushing forward, Lu Chen simply turned around and gave him space.
Siphon energy!
He wanted to land an extra basic attack, but then something happened again that made his expression change drastically. The scene from before, where Lu Chen used his attack range to kite him, happened again.
The fact that the wandering creature could attack him, while he couldn't attack the wandering creature, really broke his spirit. "Damn it, this isn't a script! I'll eat this computer screen!"
Seeing this situation, and the fact that the red team's minions had much lower health than the blue team's minions, Ziwei immediately pulled the minions' aggro towards the river.
But seeing the minion wave and the rogue still using drugs, Zita's face turned ashen.
He seemed to have exploded!
The live stream chat was filled with rapidly scrolling comments, all expressing shock.
[Wow, is this some professional mid-laner's smurf account? It's making my Tide drink all numb.]
[Wow, this is how a rogue can kite Viktor? It's absolutely hilarious!]
[Host, you look like you've exploded! And why is your face so red?]
...
The comments scrolled quietly, and Zi Tai only glanced at them a few times before the beast within him was about to emerge, and his years of self-control were about to crumble.
"Awesome!"
At that moment, a chorus of praise immediately erupted behind Lu Chen. Although they couldn't understand the details, they knew what was going on.
On Lu Chen's screen, his blue team's minions have almost wiped out the red team's minions, and he has an extra health potion, while Viktor is out of potions.
Viktor, standing in front of the minion wave, wanted to come up but didn't dare.
If he doesn't come up, he can't clear the minions and can only wait for the minion wave to come. If he comes up, he will likely be directly imprisoned by Lu Chen's rune, then he can use Sprint and Wind Rider to catch him and attack.
Without any medicine, his health would drop even lower, leaving him with no choice but to return to base. If he tried to stay under the tower and farm minions cautiously, Lu Chen's jungler would probably come over.
"grass!"
Zitai was burning with anger. He had never played a casual game with such high pressure before. The pressure was immense both inside and outside the game, and beads of sweat were appearing on his back and neck.
He chose the safest strategy: to avoid touching the minion wave, stay in the back to gain experience, and wait for Lu Chen to push the minion wave over.
Actually, Zita wanted to call the jungler over to help, but the game had only just begun and the jungler was still farming.
"He's already a dead man."
Lu Chen, a look of smug satisfaction on his face, said to the passersby behind him, "This level three Viktor is about to die, do you believe it or not?"
Although Viktor is currently at a slight disadvantage, Lu Chen still doesn't believe that he can solo kill everyone. Professional players are basically unkillable if they don't want to die.
Lu Chen didn't offer any further explanation. He first placed a ward in the upper river, based on the information received from the lower lane.
If the enemy jungler Lee Sin starts with blue buff, then all you need to do is keep an eye on the top half of the map. Position yourself near the top river and wait for your own jungler who started with red buff to arrive before moving to the bottom river.
This is a small detail about mid-lane anti-gank. When the second wave of minions arrived and the seventh minion died, Lu Chen once again pushed towards Viktor.
"Move out!" Zitai muttered.
However, it had no effect whatsoever. The Wanderer released his hand, and the released overload seemed to lock onto his body, landing precisely and elegantly on him.
A casting range of 900 yards is no joke, and the little bit of health he regained with the second red potion dropped a few points again.
Immediately afterward, Lu Chen used the same method while finishing off enemies. With Overload having a short cooldown and low mana consumption, as long as he hit accurately, Lu Chen had no idea how Zita could play Viktor.
"How annoying! I believe him even if he hasn't opened the app, but why does he win every single time?!" The posture couldn't take it anymore, and the sound of the clips stopped abruptly.
"Can the jungler come and help? The lane is being controlled!" Zz1tai sent a signal requesting assistance, which drew countless mocking comments from the chat.
[Is my Viktor's poop sucking?]
[Haha, wait, streamer, are you pretending to be a pro player? How come you can't even beat a Korean server mage?]
[This cracked me up! The Wanderer is already level 3, while Viktor is only level 1.]
[Jungler: I haven't even finished clearing the jungle, and you're saying you're done for? It's 20 PM, forget it.]
[Do you like learning Viktor's Q skill at level 1? Would learning E skill cause this?]
...
Zitai also regretted it. If he had known he would have leveled up E at level 1, he could have at least farmed creeps from a great distance or even harassed Lu Chen's Wanderer. This game wouldn't have turned out this way.
As a large wave of minions quietly approached, Zita regained his composure and once again put on airs in the live stream, saying, "Brothers, let me show you the streamer's tower dive skills."
After saying that, he raised his hand and used Siphon Energy to finish off a tower dive.
However, in that split second, just as Viktor's shield was about to disappear, Lu Chen's Wanderer struck with lightning speed.
With a grunt!
Before Zitai could react, Lu Chen's Wanderer had already stormed into the tower.
Q Flash EQWQA!
To play it safe, Lu Chen didn't weave basic attacks into his combos, fearing that if Zita reacted, EW would lock him down.
A smooth combo left Zz1tai with no chance. The speed boost from the combined use of Sprint and Wind Rider allowed Lu Chen to relentlessly auto-attack Viktor, forcing Zz1tai to use both Sprint and Flash. However, he still couldn't escape being auto-attacked to death by Lu Chen.
Two seconds later, a deafening sound immediately resounded through the canyon.
"Kingslayer has killed Taiye!"
"First blood!"
"Taiye killed Kingslayer!"
As he stared at his gray screen and the minion wave being devoured by the turret, his face went from white to green, and then from green to red, especially as the live stream chat was still surging!
[6666! Holy crap, this is a wandering character! Whose alt account is this?!]
[That was too fast! I didn't even see it clearly before the person was gone?]
[Wow, this is ridiculous! Is this homeless place really open?]
[Is the streamer on? I'm talking about your intelligence!]
Hahaha~
...
The moment he saw that comment, Zitai felt feverish, his face visibly flushed, and the sound of the clip changed dramatically.
"May you prosper, prosper, prosper!"
The mouse was being frantically slammed against the table by Zita, who then sent a signal to his jungler, "Still farming, still farming! I'm about to die, Miracle Walker, you're still farming!"
...
