Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 116 Debut Encounters a Formidable Opponent, Dragon Ball Nakano
The Korean server has already updated to the official S8 version, while the Chinese server is still stuck in the S8 preseason.

In the official Season 8 version, Comet was heavily nerfed, and several heroes who relied on Comet gradually fell out of the T1 tier.

However, the designers never expected that a new bugged talent, Lethal Tempo, would be born in their hands.

The newly released Lethal Tempo has a 10-second cooldown, which is a bit too long for champions in the bot lane and other lanes who can take this talent.

The removal of the 25 bonus attack range from Kleptomancy has unintentionally nerfed several mid and top lane champions who could use this talent to annoy opponents.

Korean server players and professional players who are still living in a dream world could never have imagined that in version 8.3, just two versions later, the green blade they rely on will also be removed.

Want to see my champion pool?

Li Luo shook his head and smiled. The rat mid lane with the newly buffed Lethal Tempo is not weak at all.

Having inherited the puppy's experience, he has made significant progress in the past two months, even embarking on a completely different path from the puppy.

In Korean solo queue, if you want to climb the ranks, choosing a strong champion in the current meta or returning to the AD carry role and playing a solo carry style is indeed easier.

However, for a considerable period in the early to mid-stages of Season 8, there were no marksman heroes in the AD position. Instead, there were more tank and warrior heroes paired with an initiator support, resulting in melee combat on both sides.

If we continue to rely on the old-fashioned shooting style, and we haven't acquired Zita this year, we might not be able to secure a victory.

From now on, Li Luo plans to train some quirky heroes and eventually become a well-rounded warrior.

In the current 8.1 version, the mid lane ecosystem is the strangest, with assassins, traditional mages, and unconventional mid laners forming a three-way balance. This is why Li Luo dares to choose the top lane to climb the ranks.

Without a professional support player, playing in the bottom lane is too risky. In his previous life, Uzi was unable to reach the top of the Korean server for a long time because of his aggressive playstyle and lack of support.

mouse?
After Shenchao selected the crocodile, he raised an eyebrow slightly.

An unexpected yet reasonable choice.

Although the puppy has showcased several heroes he hadn't played before these past few days, he still plays the same few traditional ADCs best.

The reason it's unexpected is that the mid-lane champion Twitch has indeed been played quite a bit in the Korean server in the past few days, but due to the varying skill levels of unconventional mid-laners, the win rate is only 36.8%.

This hero can easily dominate even assassins in the early laning phase, not to mention some traditional mages. After gaining lane control by pressuring opponents in the early to mid-game, their ganking efficiency is unparalleled.

Using Q to stealthily sneak over, as long as the mid laner doesn't call out the location in advance, you can basically bypass all wards by slightly circling around the true sight wards and gank someone without them noticing.

Shenchao habitually analyzed the lineup and strategy for this game in his mind, as well as the timing of his move.

Today is, after all, the puppy's debut, giving me this opportunity to be the star, so I must seize it.

Soon, according to Shenchao's analysis, the ban/pick phase on both sides came to an end.

Blue side (enemy) -- vs -- Red side (own side)

Top Lane: Maokai vs. Renekton
Jungle: Nidalee vs Evelynn
Mid Lane: Zed vs. Twitch
ADC: Ezreal vs. Omaha

Support: Brand vs. Braum
mlxg: Did the puppy not know that this is a super account on the Korean server? He just went all in in the first game?

huhuhu: I don't know. I remember when we stopped playing last season, his account was probably Master 400 points?
Mingguoguo is me: No way? Won't he be matched with pro players in his placement matches? Shenchao, the top laner, is in big trouble!
Although the phone screen lit up, it didn't attract Li Luo's attention after the notification sound was turned off. As the game loading screen appeared, Li Luo shifted his gaze from answering the chat questions and was stunned when he saw the IDs of the enemy mid laner Zed and jungler Nidalee.

The opposing mid-jungle duo is actually the same mid-jungle duo from the Longzhu Gaming team that was eliminated by Samsung in S7.

After the Mouse King was injured during the All-Star game, several people took turns going to the hospital to take care of him, which resulted in his ranking score still being at the Master rank and not reaching the King rank.

"????!"

"That's amazing! The first placement match is against Longzhu's mid and jungle, isn't this Uzi's first placement match?"

"This is a real spree! Professional players' super accounts inherit a lot of ranked points from last season. If it weren't for Chao's new account, this game would have been a professional free-for-all for Uzi."

Li Luo quickly checked the match history of both sides on the webpage. It was probably because his hidden MMR was similar to that of the opposing mid and jungle players that, apart from the four of them, the other six players were either Diamond rank or had inherited their hidden MMR from the previous season's high rank.

In this chaotic new season, these Diamond players should not be underestimated; they may very well be the future contenders for Master rank.

As for the only account without any rank and completely new, Shenchao is the only one.
"Brother Chao doesn't have any clout?"

"Hahaha, let's watch Chao Ge lane against the Korean Diamond 1 top laner, hope he doesn't get completely dominated!"

"With Twitch mid lane against Bdd's Zed, and Kuzi's jungle help, Uzi is in for a tough time this game. I'm happy to see that!"

When the fans saw Shenchao all alone with nothing, they burst out laughing.

Various old jokes were also brought out.

"BDD's Zed is pretty good; we need to use 70% of his power."

Before he even entered the game, he saw that the opposing team had picked Zed. Perhaps the opposing Zed thought he would be facing Oma in lane, not him, a little rat.

Li Luo muttered to himself unconsciously, forgetting that he wasn't playing the game alone anymore. The headset on his ear transmitted his words clearly to every viewer.

Barrage--
"Holy crap, this dog is getting more and more cocky. He's got a real cocky FMVP win, I'm totally in love!"

"Haha, let's see how many times the dog can feed with 70% of his power this game. We still vividly remember when he said Yasuo was at 120% power last time."

"Where's the moderator? Kick that troll upstairs out! (laughs)"

"Zed with Electrocute was precise, but he didn't fight back decisively in the early game. It's too difficult for Twitch to suppress Zed!"

"This Zed player is hopeless. Where's the damage and shield from Triumph? I suggest BDD immediately become my protégé's disciple, Heaven's Legion Zed, and get some serious training. His thinking is completely off."

"She was born in '98, I can't outmaneuver her."

"."

Seeing the increasing number of memes and jokes in the comments, even Li Luo couldn't help but chuckle.

When laning against Bdd's Zed, he's not bragging. Using this version's unconventional champions, he's genuinely not afraid, even when going up against Longzhu's mid and jungle.
