"Phyllostachys Pubescens, do you still think you can land a hundred hits now?" Lin Yan looked at Xiao Tian's data panel and laughed.
Mongoose's final number of hits stopped at 98, which was only two hits away from Lin Yan's small goal of 100 hits before the game.
"I'll go …" Xiao Tian had some regrets, "If I had known, I would have taken more hits at the last push."
"Burned Pot, your Qing Gang Yin is too strong!" Jin Gong couldn't help but sigh.
"Third in the world." Lin Yan played an old joke.
He took his teammates to shake hands with WE on the opposite side.
"This Qing Gang Yin is a textbook-level performance whether it's a solo kill or a mid-game opportunity!" Doll on the commentary platform commented.
"It turns out that the mid-laner Qing Gang Yin is indeed feasible," Mille said with a smile, "Ran's wave of killing Policewoman in the middle was too eye-catching."
"He can always pull out some heroes that we don't expect, and the key is that they are all effective."
As WE's main Crystal broke, the number of bullet screens in the live broadcast room of major competitions exploded.
[People who hate YM, come out and see, your father won again, are you angry?]
[Tonight, I'm the gravedigger, dig for me with a Luoyang shovel!]
[Hey, you can win even if you take the advertisement, what should we do?]
…
"I want to ask the Ran player," Yu Zhen smiled and looked at Lin Yan next to him, "Your Qing Gang Yin performance today was very good. Can you tell us the reason for choosing Qing Gang Yin as the mid-laner?"
Lin Yan pondered for two seconds.
"First, it's because the opposite side got the jungler combination of Crocodile and Spider. If we still use Qing Gang Yin to go on the top lane, it's easy to be targeted. In that way, this hero won't be effective, and I don't think there's any pressure for Qing Gang Yin to go to the middle lane to fight Jess."
"Second, it's because WE relies more on Mystic to carry the game," Lin Yan said while holding the microphone, "Everyone knows about Qing Gang Yin. It's easier to kill the AD than to kill the tank. I can easily threaten the bottom lane with her as the mid-laner."
The reaction of the bullet screen was very real.
[There's no pressure in fighting Jayce. It's easier to kill AD than to finish off the cannon.]
[Brother-in-law:???
What the hell?]
[ADCs are persecuted daily. It can't be helped. Try to understand.]
Yu Zhen glanced at the card in his hand and asked the next question, "How many Qing Gang Ying did Ran practice?"
"Twenty sets. That's about right."
The audience was in an uproar.
"20 sets?"
Yu Zhen's eyes widened in surprise. She originally thought that Lin Yan would have at least a few hundred games of proficiency since he had single-handedly killed Jesse, who was at full health, and killed her brother-in-law from a super long distance.
She couldn't help but ask, "You only took 20 games to master the maneuver of opening a team across the middle lane?"
"No." Lin Yan shook his head.
Xi Ye, who was packing his backpack in the WE team lounge, was also watching the post-match interview. When he heard Lin Yan's words, he let out a sigh of relief.
It was good that he didn't master it in 20 games. He felt that such a skilled maneuver would take at least half a day to master it.
Just as he thought about it, he heard Lin Yan add another sentence, "I learned it from a video blogger who specializes in playing Qing Gang Ying. Today is the first time I used it. I didn't expect that I could do it with my hands. It's quite simple."
Xi Ye's hand shook, and the remaining Wangzai milk in the paper cup almost spilled out.
First time?
I can't accept it!
[First time?
Has the B word started?]
[Is this human language?]
Yu Zhen didn't expect Lin Yan to say such a thing. She was surprised, but her good professionalism still made her ask the last question with a smile on her face.
"Today is also your 18th birthday. Can I ask what your birthday wish is?"
Lin Yan bowed his head and thought for two seconds. In just two seconds, he recalled the first 18 years of his life.
He suddenly felt that he was quite complete. Regrets had long become regrets. Birthday wishes couldn't change what happened in the past. It was just a little bit of hope and comfort for the future.
Now, Lin Yan had much more than most of his peers.
"I hope the team can achieve the same results as last year. Don't let down our efforts this year." Lin Yan said in a well-behaved manner.
Fans below the stage shouted, "Definitely, we'll wait for you at the Bird's Nest!"
This year's S7, the Capital Bird's Nest was the venue for the finals. It was also Lin Yan's goal.
Lin Yan smiled and waved at them. He handed the microphone to Yu Zhen and turned to leave the stage.
The moment he pushed the door open and entered the team's lounge, the sudden noise gave him a fright!
Jack and Xiao Tian were both holding birthday salutes, and the streamers were floating above Lin Yan's head.
"Happy birthday!"
Everyone in the room shouted in unison.
Guo Hao pushed the cake in front of Lin Yan.
The cake was custom-made by the club, and it was several times bigger than the official one.
The top layer of the cake used various colors of chocolate to shape the heroes Lin Yan was good at. It was probably because he played so many heroes that the cake was full.
Heroes like Enchantress, Ryze, Clockwork, and Lucian sat in the first row. Above them were some big guys like Titan, Dragon King, and the Galaxy Magic Armor God's Lamborghini …
The two rows of heroes surrounded the cartoon Lin Yan holding the trophy. The image was vivid.
"There's no time to make Qing Gang Yin today." Guo Hao smiled. "If you want to eat the cake tomorrow, I can find someone to make it again."
"This is good." Lin Yan took the table knife from Su Cheng and cut the cake. "How about we each have a piece?"
"Jin Gong … this piece with Jayz is for you!" The prophet handed the cut cake out.
"Good duck, good duck …" Jin Gong took it and bit off Jayz's head, leaving only the Headless Horseman with the Hex Electromagnetic Cannon.
"A gift for you …" Xiao Tian pulled out a gift box from his bag and stuffed it into Lin Yan's arms.
"What's this?" Lin Yan shook the box.
"A new mobile phone." Phyllostachys Pubescens twisted the ribbon on top of his head. "I see that you've been using your phone for more than a year."
Lin Yan himself didn't need a mobile phone. It could send and receive messages and high-intensity surfing. However, he naturally appreciated Xiao Tian's kindness.
Several other teammates also gave their own gifts. Lin Yan thanked them one by one and would return the gift on their next birthday.
Su Cheng gave him an expensive sweater that cost her a whole month's salary.
The cake looked quite big, but there were too many people in YM. Each person had a piece.
"Go take a car outside. I've booked a restaurant!" Guo Hao had obviously planned this for a long time. "Tomorrow is Sunday. You guys can have fun!"
Jack was like a Shiba Inu in the restaurant outside. Except for seafood, he tasted everything else.
After the birthday party outside, Lin Yan sent Su Cheng to the Pentagon and then rushed back to the base.
Lin Yan wanted to lie on the bed and rest for a while after taking a shower, but Winston suddenly sent him a message to do a live broadcast tonight and said that there was a surprise for him.
Surprise my foot. Lin Yan just wanted to sleep now.
Lin Yan turned over in bed and lay there for 15 minutes before reluctantly leaving the dormitory.
As soon as the stream started, the audience instantly flooded into the live broadcast room.
"Why are you broadcasting so diligently?" Lin Yan yawned. "I can't help it, brothers."
"The streamer also needs to earn money."
A group of people asked to copy Qing Gang Yin's move in the middle lane again.
"Why are you guys so bad?" Lin Yan felt strange. "Why do you keep thinking about whipping people's bodies?"
[Spicy is really awesome. You killed people in the post-match interview, and you still want to push the blame to us?]
[Killing Policewoman is easier than patching the car?
Who was the one who said that?]
"I didn't say it." Lin Yan quickly waved his hand. "I'm quoting it. The original words came from Tajōji's Human Disqualification."
The bullet screen was full of question marks.
"Do you guys like to watch operations that can be done with hands so much?" Lin Yan couldn't understand.
However, he still had to satisfy the audience's request. The Korean server queued up. Lin Yan opened the local server and then turned on the training mode.
At the beginning of February this year, Fist launched this brand-new training mode. In this mode, players could customize and modify their gold coins, level, cooldown time, and other data to help summoners practice various operation skills.
Lin Yan moved Qing Gang Yin to the middle lane in an instant.
"Qing Gang Yin's E Flash is very simple." Lin Yan didn't play many games, but he still acted as a teacher and taught. "Everyone knows EE Flash. You can use flash to extend the displacement distance when you kick out the second section of the wall."
"One of the advantages of E Flash is that it can chase people from a long distance. Due to the problem of the skill mechanism, Qing Gang Yin can also perform a wall return displacement when he flashes away from the wall."
Lin Yan placed the dummy in the middle lane.
"If you want to use EE Flash, you can see that I don't have this indicator when I hang on the wall, so I can only rush a short distance." Lin Yan canceled the skill cooldown reduction and explained to them.
"But if you use E Flash, you will see the indicator appear when you flash away from the wall, so the second section of the wall return is a very long displacement dash distance." Lin Yan easily used E Flash + WR, leaping 2,000 yards to cover the dummy at the other end of the middle lane.
"The only thing you have to pay attention to is not to flash in advance. It's easy to cancel your hook rope," Lin Ran threw the hook rope to demonstrate, "You must wait until the end of the first hook rope displacement. When Qing Gang Yin moves to the wall, then use the flash + the second section of E, so that you can kick out the E flash."
[I understand, but my hands don't allow me to do this.]
[It sounds very simple. I'll open the ranking to play Qing Gang Yin.]
[Don't cheat me. I'll report every Qing Gang Yin I see tonight. The player's strength doesn't match the rank!]
At this time, the Korean server reminded that the remaining nine people had been matched.
Lin Yan clicked accept and then exited the local server.
"Hey?
It's Jack's turn. "
Lin Yan glanced at his own ID and was not surprised to see the ID 'Yukijudai'.
"Brother Ran, are you playing jungler?"
Jack, who was on the other side of the training room, had obviously noticed this detail. He saw Lin Yan take his AD position and quickly asked.
It was almost 11 o 'clock at night. Lin Yan was extremely sleepy. His biological clock told him that it was time to sleep.
Lin Yan could not lift his spirits. He did not want to play an online hero that tested one's skill, so he just went jungler.
He looked at the Blind Monk + Victor midlaner combination opposite him and chose Nanqiang.
Jack, on the other hand, chose to play EZ.
As soon as he entered the loading screen, Lin Yan saw the familiar IDs opposite him.
SKTPeanut and Hideonbush.
Little Peanut and Faker's SKT midlaner combination.
[Another all-star?]
[With Brother Ran's score, he'll definitely be a professional player in tonight's ranking. Veteran viewers will understand.]
Lin Yan's account was not purely to improve his score. He would also practice his heroes from time to time.
Until now, he only had 900 points, which was much lower than Little Peanut's.
As soon as he entered the game, Little Peanut greeted him. Obviously, he recognized Lin Yan's ID — dansha Faker.
Little Peanut was especially talkative today. He typed furiously on the public chat and seemed unusually excited.
Lin Yan knew the reason.
This afternoon, the reorganized Galactic Battleship SKT had successfully defeated the KT team of the three heroes of LPL. This was the battle between the strong in LCK. Everyone thought that these two teams would meet in the finals of the Spring Season.
Little Peanut's performance in the preview of the finals was outstanding. He crushed KT's old captain, Score, in two games.
Bang, who was in the bottom lane, also performed superbly. Against the bottom lane combination of Deft and Mata, he and Wolf managed to kill two lane opponents.
Bang's hard work after losing the S6 finals finally paid off. Since the start of the Spring Season, his 680 damage output was 90 points higher than Mr. Dai, who was in second place. His 159% damage conversion rate was also ranked first in LCK. His opponent's economy was in the lead of 1900 …
Bang proved that he was still the best ADC in LCK. Mr. Dai stood aside obediently.
Little Peanut was naturally overjoyed to have won the match. Currently, they only had KT as their opponent in the LCK. Although the Samsung team was quite strong, they had always only started to awaken in the early autumn bubble matches, and their performance in the spring and summer matches was rather unstable.
"Let me tell you guys, I'm better at nanqiang than Xiao Tian," Lin Yan said after drinking a mouthful of water.
The bullet screen was filled with question marks again.
"You guys don't believe me, right?" Lin Yan was very surprised. "In terms of nanqiang, Xiao Tian really isn't as good as me."
At this moment, Phyllostachys Pubescens's gloomy voice came from behind him.
"What did you say?"
Lin Yan turned around and glanced at Mongoose, who was holding a can of Coke.
"I said you're not as good at nanqiang as me," Lin Yan said calmly.
The bullet screen started to fan the flames when they heard Lin Yan's words.
[It's starting, it's starting. The streamer is starting to set the pace!]
[Wait for a Nakano to break all ties!]
[Mongoose, f * ck him up. Let him know the consequences of offending his father!]
"nanqiang?
Then it's fine. "Mongoose scratched his head and pretended to be a passerby." Brother Ran is definitely better at nanqiang than me. "
"After all, an honest person like me would never dirty his teammate's money. Brother Ran can't wait to punish his teammate's cannon when he gank," Mongoose said sarcastically.
Lin Yan laughed as he farmed. "Don't be so awkward. When did I dirty my lane's money?
Besides, how can a nanqiang play if he doesn't help his teammates? "
Mongoose didn't want to play anymore. He moved his chair over and sat next to Lin Yan to give advice.
"You're playing nanqiang without listening to the stewardess' trap?" He started to find fault with him.
"What's that?" Lin Yan was still spamming the red buff and didn't react in time.
"It's that …" Xiao Tian was just about to explain the glorious deeds of a certain country's number one nanqiang, but on second thought, he didn't want to ruin the streamer's rhythm. "Just play it. Don't ask so much."
"Oh, oh."
Lin Yan clicked on the minimap and let the nanqiang hurry on its own. He then went out and opened a music app to look for a song.
As soon as the music started, the bullet screen started to flood with memes about the blue schoolbag and the breakup fee.
Lin Yan glanced at the bullet screen and then went back to the game screen.
He found that he was already low on HP and was being chased by Little Peanut's Blind Monk.
"F * ck!" Lin Yan hadn't expected Little Peanut to play such a dirty trick and turn the tables on him at level two.
He hurriedly used his E and Flash to run away, but Little Peanut flashed and sent him back to the fountain!
"You'll have to take full responsibility for this one health!" Lin Yan started to shift the blame.
"Brother Ran, do something!
Brother, I don't want to play seriously! "Jack shouted unhappily on the side.
Lin Yan knew that his blue buff was definitely gone. He bought the Eye of Truth and ran back to his Gargoyle camp.
On the way, he glanced at the bullet screen.
Some of the female fans were playing dumb and acting cute with "hahaha," while the male fans were being sarcastic.
"Do you think I'm a noob?" Lin Yan got to work. "Do you think I'm very noob?
That I'm very lucky? "
"But I'm going to be undying and super godly next time." Lin Yan glanced at the bullet screen again. "You don't believe me?
Just watch me do it. "
Lin Yan's ganking was as beautiful as a painting. As a mid laner, it was reasonable for him to be able to gank. It would add a bit of fun when you ate your own team's junglers.
He leveled up to level three and gank the bottom lane.
Even though he didn't have a red buff, he still flashed out the opposing duo.
"Jack, I'll help you push this wave of minions!" Lin Yan stared at the wave of turrets in the bottom lane.
"F * ck, don't disgust me!" Jack hurriedly shouted.
"I won't eat your minions!
What kind of person do you think I am? "Lin Yan said with a straight face.
He used his Q skill to reduce all the minions to critical health and then watched as Jack collected all the minions into his bag.
Lin Yan didn't like dirty minions as a jungler — at most, he would eat two turrets. He was more inclined to gank and share the experience of the minions with the heroes in the lane.
For junglers, levels were very important. Once there was a gap in levels, they would have a lot more capital to invade the jungle. As long as they could invade the opponent's jungle, they wouldn't have to worry about money.
"That's great, that's great!"
Jack breathed a sigh of relief. With this wave of minions entering the tower, the opponent's bottom lane had already returned to the city. He could accept sharing the experience with Lin Yan.
Lin Yan did the same and went to the middle lane to catch another wave of Victor. He forced the opposing mid laner to return to the city and continued to share the experience.
He successfully reached level six in just over six minutes.
Lin Yan entered the jungle to catch Little Peanut, and crouched down on the ignorant Blind Monk in the grass.
He first attacked with a normal shot, then hit with a smoke grenade so that Little Peanut couldn't immediately escape.
Another large lead bullet entered the blind monk's body, triggering the Thunder Lord's decree.
Lin Yan looked at the empty nanqiang and decisively used [Ultimate Bomb] + E [Quick Draw]!
This was the nanqiang's ARE combo, which hadn't been fixed by Fist yet!
The advantage of this combo was that there was no recoil from the big move, so it was easy to continue chasing!
The bullet refreshed with an E slide hit Little Peanut, and Blind Monk, who wasn't at full health to begin with, instantly dropped to a sliver of health!
Little Peanut, who hadn't been able to Blink properly, could only touch his eyes and try to escape. However, Lin Yan followed and reloaded, taking Little Peanut's life with one shot!
After that, Lin Yan didn't hold back and directly looted half of Little Peanut's jungle. He was one level ahead and directly killed the dragon.
"How was it?"
Lin Yan's solo kill in the jungle made up for his disadvantage, and he hurriedly asked Jack and Xiao Tian for credit.
"Tsk … It's just so-so," Xiao Tian said reluctantly. "I can do that too."
"Sure, sure." It had to be said that Jack was still good at flattering his teammates. "Brother Ran, hurry up and end the game for me. My stomach hurts a little!"
Lin Yan controlled the rhythm of the jungle and caused havoc in Blind Monk's jungle.
Little Peanut was in a good mood after winning the match today, and clearly wasn't playing seriously. He could do all kinds of fancy moves, and was just short of buying a Rocket Belt to force out a roundhouse kick.
"My stomach really hurts a little. Xiao Tian, come over and help me!" Jack couldn't take it anymore as he clutched his stomach and ran to the bathroom.
In 21 minutes, Lin Yan made a warrior's jungler, green cross and Bloodthirsty Sword, and led his teammates up the opponent's high tower.
"Little Tian, you don't say, this music really suits the occasion!"
Lin Yan's legs shook as he listened to "Love Trap." He controlled the nanqiang to go up and down three times to reach the opponent's high tower. His posture was extremely elegant.
"That's right. There's also a song called 'Cold Summer Wind'. You can listen to it as well. It's a must-have song for male gunners to play in the jungle." Little Tian helped Jack win a game and was quite happy at first.
When he exited to the score screen, he saw that Jack was close to the thousand-point mark, which was much higher than him, the King Goalkeeper. He couldn't smile anymore.
Lin Ran had nothing to do, so he glanced at the time and prepared to continue broadcasting until midnight.
"What's going on with Jack?" Guo Hao rushed out of the shower with wet hair and a nervous expression on his face.
"What do you mean what's going on?" Xiao Tian was bewildered. "Didn't he go to the bathroom because his stomach hurt?"
Guo Hao immediately ran to the bathroom in the training room.
Two minutes later, he ran out. This time, he was really panicking.
"Jack's stomach doesn't feel well. I'll take him to the hospital first!"
"Ah, this …" Jin Gong was being targeted by the opposing jungler. He was just about to slam the table to vent his anger when he heard the news.
The Prophet turned around. As a support, he was especially concerned about the ADC.
"You don't have to worry about it," Guo Hao said hurriedly when he saw the players in the training room looking at him. "I'll go downstairs and find someone on duty to accompany me to the hospital!"
The room was full of internet addicts. It was good enough that they didn't cause trouble. Guo Hao didn't dare to ask them for help.
He walked out of the bathroom with Jack, who was about to collapse. The big-headed ADC's face was pale and he looked very weak.
"He should be fine, right?" Jin Gong said uncertainly as he watched Guo Hao and Jack go downstairs.
Lin Yan and his teammates turned off the live broadcast room immediately to prevent any bad things from happening.
"Let's wait for the notice. There's no point in us being anxious." He was still relatively rational.
When it was close to midnight, Guo Hao finally sent back news from the hospital.
Jack was fine, just that he had to stay in the hospital for a few days. According to the doctor, it was because the food he had eaten today was too mixed with cold drinks and spicy food.
Thankfully, it was nothing serious. His teammates, who were anxiously waiting in the training room, finally heaved a sigh of relief.
It was just past midnight in China when a few of the team members' WeChat messages appeared all over the place.
Only then did Lin Yan know what the surprise Winston was talking about was — the promotional video for the champion's skin was out.
