Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 123 Brother Li - "Starting Again as a Warrior"

Although the process of these six battles was full of ups and downs, overall, Li Luo used 70% of his strength. Since the puppy passed on all his proficiency to him, he seemed to have reached a new level.

Before receiving systematic instruction, the puppy itself might have had a Schrödinger's-like understanding of certain things, without any direct perception.

However, the system extracted the memory and taught it to Li Luo in a simpler and more direct way, which made the puppy's fighting style a plus version.

The pressure wasn't too great tonight, so Li Luo spent a lot of time communicating with the viewers in the chat, sharing some lesser-known facts, laning tips, and rhythm shifts as much as he could.

While it may not have the same level of entertainment value as shows by Wu Wukai or Ma Laoshi, tonight's premiere was still unique overall. It offered detailed instruction while showcasing high-level gameplay in the Korean server, making it truly one of a kind.

"That's all for today's live stream. If you enjoyed it, please click the follow button in the upper right corner. Oh, by the way, I'll be drawing the winners of the 300 million RMB grand prize now. The winners will be contacted by the official XF team shortly, so don't forget to check your private messages!"

"Thank you everyone for your support of new streamer Uzi. See you tomorrow night at the same time, 8 PM, in the same room on TikTok, Uzi!

After jokingly calling himself a new streamer, Li Luo stretched his shoulders and wrists, then pressed the end-of-stream button. Although the training methods in the training manual were effective, the most important thing was still moderation.

Everything has its limits. Since the broadcast started at 8 o'clock, Li Luo had been sitting in the gaming chair, and it was already past 12 o'clock. Four hours of continuous high-intensity battles had made Li Luo feel a little uncomfortable.

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Luo gave up on doing anything else and obediently prepared to take a shower and go to bed.

However, what Li Luo didn't know was that tonight's debut had already caused an earthquake in the LCK coaching circle that was no less significant than LPL's S7 championship win.

At the SKT base, Faker stared intently at the video sent by coach kkoma. Uzi's super account had quite a few observer streamers on it, so the moment the live stream ended, the videos of the seven ranked games were already in the hands of everyone who had the skill to obtain them.

Uzi is so strong right now!

Lee Sin scratched his head in frustration. His skill level had declined drastically. While fans outside were still reveling in the return of the Demon King and his dominance, only he and those familiar with LoL knew that he had grown old.

As top League of Legends players, we are basically at the same level. So the difference lies in our understanding of the champions, the current version, and the details. This is even more pronounced in competitive matches.

Although SKT's five games with Galio seemed to show that they were as powerful as ever, they also exposed too many of SKT's problems.

If Uzi were still in Platinum rank in the Korean server today, it would be entirely possible for him to achieve a 7-game kill streak, and it wouldn't attract so much attention.

But the truth is, Uzi carried four clueless teammates and not only crushed Longzhu's mid and jungle, but also had professional players in almost every game of the seven games tonight, either trainees or main players.

But Uzi was really acting very strange tonight!

Putting aside the astonishing skill he displayed while answering questions in the chat and simultaneously wreaking havoc, the sheer ease with which he switched between these segments and the incredible focus he showed was enough to send chills down the spines of any professional player.

When he gets a strong hero, he can definitely gain an advantage in lane. Even if he is ganked by the jungler and becomes a disadvantageous laner, he can still avoid being outfarmed. In most cases, he will even develop much better than his opponent. After getting his core items, he can still use his meticulous skills to get a solo kill. It's just too amazing.

Even when the jungler kept him in the mid lane for the last two games, he was still able to find his place in team fights and deal high damage that shouldn't have been there.

Is Uzi's laning ability reaching SSS level? Or is the S8 version the Uzi version?

An ADC went to the mid lane, and Faker took a close look. His grasp of the details was not much worse than his own, and there were even some plays that he couldn't do with his reaction time.

The most important role for any professional ADC player, and the one Uzi embodies, is their ability to roam and provide support.

He pushed himself to the limit, completely on par with some of the top teams' youth academy mid laners. In fact, some of his brilliant plays could even be considered highlight reels. For example, his Twitch in the first game was a unique early-game power spike champion, unlike the traditional LCK style of playing cautiously and farming before unleashing his power in the mid-to-late game. It was a champion where the seemingly contradictory attributes of "aggressiveness and composure" appeared in one person.

With his mastery of team fight positioning and timing, Uzi has become invincible. If we look at Faker from S10, he would realize that...

The current Uzi template is a monstrous version of TheShy from S8, possessing invincible skills and a naturally unique playstyle supported by the current meta. While he may seem more humble in the ADC position, the boost from his skills when he switches to the solo lane is terrifying.

As a world-class player, the most indispensable thing is "confidence." Faker asked himself this question, but shook his head.

Since the defeat in S7, Bang seems to have awakened, playing 14 hours a day in high-intensity ranked games and has risen from the weakest player in the team to the third in the Korean server, and is still working hard.

But everyone knows that Bang's skills will never return to their peak. He is just making a last-ditch effort now. S8 was not the ADC meta, so it will be very difficult for him to perform at the peak level that earned him the nickname "Robot AD".

"Faker, I'm going to the SKT base tomorrow to interview you guys! Remember to pick me up~"

"Faker, can you help me advance from Gold rank to ranked? These guys are so annoying!"

"Faker, good luck! We'll celebrate together when you come back with the S7 championship!"

Memories of Eun-jung flooded Lee's mind. Even though it was a dark night and he was alone in the dormitory, it felt as if there was light in the room, warm and comforting.

but!
"Faker, I don't like guys who only know how to play video games~"

I'm working hard for you! I've already gone on a variety show, and I'm already running towards you!
"I like domineering boys, the kind who can protect me~"

You, young lady, can you stay by my side and walk with me?
Few people know Galio's line, and only Faker himself knows why he likes this clunky, low-skill champion.

"Faker, we might not be a good match~"

"I really don't like guys who play video games, but we can be good friends!"

"They came to ask me why I don't wear some trendy brands or nicer clothes, because I only wear the team's uniform. But what they don't know is that was what I wore when I first met you."

The night I learned you weren't mine, I logged into the game and found Summoner's Rift in chaos. I frantically controlled the game, my eyes filled with carnage, like a mad horse galloping across the plains without you.

—On that day, the Korean server's Challenger tier games were filled with chaos and devastation.

I often wondered what I would have left without games; I might have nothing at all. But then I realized, without you, what would I need this game for?

In the end, the Demon King dreamt of the butterfly; you are both Eun-jung and my calamity.

Memories of Eun-jung flashed through his mind, and for some reason, a burning anger, like that of a novice warrior fighting a dragon, rekindled in Faker's heart.

Now that I am no longer the Demon King, from this moment on, I will set out as a warrior and fight to the very end!

How could I, Lee Sang-hyeok, remain subservient to others for long!
