LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 114: The First Place in Korean Service
A simple Korean server ranking match made Xiaohuasheng study network slicing for nearly half an hour.

Naturally, he wouldn't watch the entire LPL game, but just looked for some EDG highlights to analyze.

Lucian used his ultimate in seconds and flashed forward, Ezreal used two Qs and one big attack to kill Uzi, and Jhin set up a cannon on the high ground to take his life.

As for the countless small operation shots, Peanut, who simply thought it was wonderful, was a little mesmerized by them.

"A newcomer who just entered the LPL this year, undefeated, and ranked first in the league."

Muttering all kinds of incredible data, Peanut couldn't help but pull up his hair again, leaning back and rocking his gaming chair to think.

EDG is an old rival, the league champion of LPL, and has a deep connection with SKT. They even faced each other in the World Championship last year. How could he not know about it?

What's more, the team also has the familiar ROX old coach Nofe.

But Lin Ruo had never noticed it.

Unlike Brother Xianghe who pays attention to many things, Peanut, who feels that he is ignorant, sits up straight, slides the mouse, and clicks on the friend's homepage interface.

"It's just after 1am. Are you offline so early?"

Xiaohuasheng was a little surprised, and his brows furrowed when he saw the results chart. The two games against Nidalee were all the RANK records so far.

No wonder he is just a budding master.

As a high-scoring king, Xiaohuasheng had to admit that it was indeed a bit mysterious when he met a master-level player.

After all the trouble, it is certain from the few RANK records that this person is a player who plays the game purely by talent.

"I don't think we'll meet at MSI. EDG has a perfect record and they'll definitely make it." Peanut opened the bottle cap and drooled, then clicked on the queue mode to start the countdown.

Upon hearing this, Faker spoke in a mature and steady tone, "What nonsense are you talking about? Our regular season hasn't even finished yet, and qualifying for MSI is still to be determined."

Although SKT is now ranked first in the regular season, it is not enough to create a big gap.

The two major rivals SSG and KT are following closely behind, especially the former, which is only one game away from them and has a high chance of catching up.

Peanut smiled but said nothing. His current invincible state made him full of confidence in entering MSI. He was already thinking about whether he would face his idol Clearlove again.

I'm really looking forward to it.

...

How would you rate Lin Ruo's 10-minute jungle demolition of Peanut?

[He easily wins high-ranking Korean servers and switches between other games while focusing on three things at once. Is he human?]

[Oh no, it feels like Lin Gou is a one-in-a-million gaming genius.]

After one night, clips of Lin Ruo's live broadcast went viral on the Internet. It was extremely popular. The popularity came from the highlights, and there were too many highlights.

It was widely spread on Tieba, Weibo, and Palm League. Lin Ruo's speed in switching screens alone was enough to make the astonished talkers out of reach.

Not to mention beating a bronze player with one-handed operation and winning all over a hundred Solo games in one night.

Facts like the first national champion of Canyon of Heroes and the first national champion of the new Overwatch stage.

Everything is amazing and brilliant.

Before a day had passed, the traffic exploded.

Lin Ruo, who is good at eating melons, is used to this.

The so-called genius title of being number one in both servers had already been clearly proven, and now it’s just that more people are convinced.

The journey to rank up in the Korean server is still going on. After playing a few games last night to cultivate his sentiments, Lin Ruo logged into the Korean server at noon the next day.

Looking at the various boasting comments on the barrage, Lin Ruo felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

Why are there only white pieces? Where are the black pieces?
Where is the royal army? Save them. We won’t fight in a team battle when the situation is not favorable, right?

These white guys have a lot of demands. Sometimes they want to see the jungler bullying the weak, and sometimes they want to see the screen switching and three openings.

Do you think I don't want to?
But what annoyed Lin Ruo was that Abu was like a wandering ghost, often wandering around.

If he doesn't choose AD, he will refuse to leave and will come to take a look every now and then.

Lin Ruo had undoubtedly been subjected to the most blatant sexual assault in history.

When playing the AD position, who has time to be distracted? You have to bully the weak opponents to the end.

After all, you can't just hang out in the wild area like a jungler and act like a miracle walker for a long time without coming out.

If you lag behind in the line for a while, your teammates will be filled with question marks and the enemy will use their ultimate skills, but no one will tolerate you.

The afternoon training matches and review sessions continued non-stop, and in the blink of an eye it was evening.

After dinner, I continued to sit in front of the computer and score points.

After finally catching Abu out doing something, Lin Ruo started his daily three-opening operation.

Just as I hit the 6, I heard Ai Loli next to me screaming in pain.

After playing for a whole day, the net win number is only three. Anyone would be devastated.

Ai Loli thinks he is old. At the age of 20, he is indeed middle-aged in the e-sports profession.

Comparing herself with the seventeen-year-old Lin Ruo, my heart was filled with envy.

"Brother Lin, please lead me in the duo queue."

"No, if the game I'm supposed to take you for fifteen minutes is dragged out to twenty, I'd rather pay your fine."

Lin Ruo decisively refused, but still comforted her appropriately and took out some medicine from her bag. "Men always have times when they are powerless. If that doesn't work, try Shenbao tablets."

"Fuck, why did you buy this?"

"Have you never had candy?"

It turned out to be candy. Ai Loli ate one with relish and sat back in her seat.

Lin Ruo smiled and said nothing. In fact, it was just some kidney pills. Ai Loli had been suffering from insomnia, nightmares, and pain in her waist and knees recently, so she bought them while going out to eat.

"Want to duo queue?" Seeing that Lin Ruo has been so diligent in RANKing recently, Tian Ye also extended an invitation. It is still necessary for the bottom lane combination to practice their tacit understanding.

Lin Ruo still refused.

Three training matches a day are enough to develop tacit understanding. If we play more than that, the bottom lane will break up.

Moreover, the CP rumors about the Linmei group have been rampant recently. Zhuzhu Nufen has nothing to do with anyone and even started a double super topic on Weibo, which makes Lin Ruo so angry that she reports it once a day.

Isn't it good to just reminisce about the long-distance relationship of the Camel Girl group? These things disgust me.

It seems that there haven't been many group activities recently, which makes them think they are like human beings.

While waiting for the ranking match, Lin Ruo opened Plants vs. Zombies and passed the time by doing childish operations such as placing nuts in the east, south, west and north directions and surrounding the mine potatoes in the middle in the yard.

It's very tiring to open three games for a long time, and he also needs a rest.

Three minutes passed and no one got in line yet.

The friend chat page rang, and Peanut, who had just logged in after reviewing the training game, saw Lin Ruo online and sent a private message.

"yiqi?"

There are many Chinese people playing Korean server rankings, and he has learned a few Chinese pinyin sentences through observation and influence.

Just like Lin Ruoneng can learn Korean from Tian Ye.

Thinking about it for even a second longer would be disrespectful to Peak Peanuts, so Lin Ruo immediately broke the line and entered the room.

With Peanut's cooperation as a jungler, a game might end in ten minutes.

In other words, he quickly gained points and worked hard to get first place.

After all, Peanut in S7 played like a god of war in MSI and the Spring Split before the World Championship became a piece of shit.

SKT's jungler, Faker had to use him as a tool for a while.

Unfortunately, with one strike of the sword from Riot, the Incense Burner version of the World Championship directly destroyed Peanut.

You let Peanut play the tool man Prince and go to the bottom lane to be a dog. Isn't this asking for his death?
It is highly likely that the MSI champion will not win the world championship, and this is never an exaggeration.

Lin Ruo did not connect with Xiao Huasheng via microphone, and the two of them played two rounds of random killing in silence.

The end time was exactly as expected.

Xiaohuasheng seemed to like this feeling as well. He would play in a duo queue with a crushing record until late at night.

The score went up really fast, Lin Ruo was very satisfied and ended the broadcast.

Two days passed quickly. When they were free, they would play together in a duo queue, and when they were not online, they would wait for each other.

On the third day in SKT's training room, Huni sat down on a chair after finishing his meal, glanced resentfully at Peanut who was sitting next to him, and started playing ranked matches alone.

Originally, he and Peanut were a perfect duo-row partner, but their dream of ranking was shattered because of the intervention of EDGAD.

Huni was depressed after losing the jungler's care.

"Double queue? Huni-hyung."

Hearing this, Huni suddenly raised his head and said dismissively, "You're tired of me after just two days. It seems your relationship is just that."

"Uh, no, he just doesn't want to fight with me anymore." Peanut scratched his head, not really understanding what was going on.

In the EDG training room on the other side of the ocean, Lin Ruo officially started his solo journey to rank up.

He just checked the current Korean server rankings. Gou Ba had won fifteen consecutive games in two days and accidentally sent Xiao Huasheng to the top.

If we continue to fight and his points continue to rise, how can I get the first place?

So Lin Ruo decisively kicked Xiao Huasheng out of the room and went to cool off.

I almost reached the King rank, but you got to the first place first. That's not okay.

……

In the following time, in addition to the competition, Lin Ruo continued to gain points as usual and helped Ai Loli from time to time.

The regular season is still in full swing. After nearly a month of competition, it is April 4th, the last week of the LPL 10 regular season.

The regular season points rankings for Groups AB have been basically finalized.

Under the leadership of Lin Ruo, EDG maintained its invincible posture and sat firmly in first place in Group A with a perfect record. Although it lost some small games in the meantime, it was not a big deal.

It is worth mentioning that WE made a strong effort in the second half, and its condition became increasingly better. With a wave of seven consecutive victories, it took the second place in Group A.

In the ranking of Group B, RNG stumbled and finally won the first place, followed by OMG with a mediocre performance.

The familiar Zhengda Plaza was crowded with people.

EDGvsIG.

The final battle on the last day of the regular season.

Having secured first place in Group A and advancing to the semi-finals early, everyone in EDG seemed very relaxed today.

The same is true for IG.

Their current record is 8–7, and after the QG team in the same group finished the game yesterday with a score of 9-7, their ranking has been completely locked.

Even if IG defeats EDG in the next game, with the same points, they will still lose to QG in points, so there is basically no point in arguing about the result of the game.

It's nothing more than a good omen for the subsequent playoffs.

But the obvious fact is that this good omen is not easy to argue with.

EDG is in as good a shape as ever.

In particular, the bottom lane player Lin Ruo just ranked first in the Korean server yesterday.

In recent months, the Korean server has become a slaughterhouse for this 17-year-old AD.
