Nirvana Top Laner, Reborn Tokyo Girl

Chapter 24, Section 23: You've fallen into a trap.
In fact, the Dragon God's contempt was not without reason.

Although his current rank is not high, it is to some extent because he plays rather casually.

As a fan of TheShy, I often seek out risky kills and aim for mindless dominance.
This makes him easy to catch, and sometimes even when he has the advantage, he will try to flash in to get a solo kill, but then make a mistake and get killed instead.

The result is often that you initially dominate the lane, then immediately feed the enemy, triggering the formula "This idiot is too bad, let's feed him," and then, not satisfied, you continue to feed until the development of the I series game ends.

Or, to put it another way, you have an advantage at the beginning, then you mindlessly push the lane and get constantly ganked, then the advantage is gone and you start farming the jungler, triggering the formula "There's nothing I can do, the jungler is a dead man", and then you initiate a surrender vote.

In terms of laning skills alone, he certainly can't compare to those top professional players and high-ranking Challenger players.

However, it's definitely enough to beat those low-score, master-level players on Bilibili.

He has always held a somewhat contemptuous attitude towards his Bilibili colleagues.

They are often called "idiots who play the same hero their whole lives" and claim, "I would never play the same hero my whole life."

To some extent, his confidence was not without merit.

Indeed, he may not be as good as many professional players, but the fact that he can maintain a low-ranked Master level while playing such a wide variety of heroes gives him a certain advantage over players who only specialize in one hero and are still only Diamond Master.

And Shimamura Yuna is indeed, to a large extent, the kind of "idiot who plays a hero to death" that he described.

However, Shimamura Yuna is someone who can carry in the LPL by mastering a single champion.
While other heroes might not be as viable in competitive matches, they can still easily perform well in Grandmaster and Challenger ranks.

Her special skill is on a completely different level from what ordinary people call a special skill.

Longshen, on the other hand, is a streamer who, although he never plays a single hero, can only claim that "this rank is suitable for streaming" when he is in Diamond or Master rank.

But the Dragon God was unaware of this at the time.

He still carried a preconceived sense of contempt, assuming that the other party was a newbie who would play vampires his whole life but never get to Diamond II, so his approach from the start was very aggressive.

Ryze positioned himself to prevent the Vladimir from gaining experience, and used his abilities to whittle down the opponent's health.

While pressing down on his body, he muttered, "I'll electrocute you, I'll electrocute you!"

"Hehe, you stupid dog, want some experience points? Sigh, I won't let you have any, I'll electrocute you!"

"Sigh, let me tell you, he can't play this vampire game anymore."

Although there is indeed a gap in skill level between Shimamura Yuna and Ryujin.
In a matchup between these two champions, Vladimir really doesn't have many options against Ryze in the early game.

Vampires have poor damage output in the early game, long downtime, and low lifesteal, resulting in very poor overall combat ability.

Moreover, the skills themselves are relatively simple and unpredictable, so there is no such thing as 'reversing the situation by relying on skill level'.

When facing a highly aggressive opponent, you can basically only silently endure the disadvantage in the lane.

However, for Shimamura Yuna, none of this was a problem.

Any expert who plays carry heroes
Whether it's Kassadin, an angel, or a vampire.

Players who play this type of hero often have a lot of patience during the laning phase and throughout the game.

If you lack patience and can't stay still, you can't play this kind of hero.

This kind of hero plays the game of fortunes shifting every thirty years.

Before reaching a certain level, the Vampire's Q skill does indeed have low damage, low healing, and a long cooldown, making him somewhat lacking in all aspects.

However, once you get the right equipment and level up, this hero becomes a powerful carry with considerable healing, decent damage, and the ability to unleash terrifying area-of-effect damage with a combo of his ultimate and dash. Shimamura Yuna enjoys this feeling of being invincible after a comeback, which is why she initially chose to play Vladimir.

Therefore, she is fully capable of accepting any initial losses.

As long as these losses are manageable.

For vampire players, the key to dealing with a disadvantageous laning phase is undoubtedly to limit losses within reasonable limits and to gain resources by exploiting a apparent health disadvantage.

You can lose health while laning.

The line can be pressured.

However, you can't just take the hits; you need to try to get as many last hits and experience as possible while losing health and being pushed back in lane.

The goal is to maintain your health bar as much as possible to avoid being solo killed, and to make the opponent feel powerless, as if they are "applying pressure but just can't break through".

Simply put, it's about making a disadvantage less of a disadvantage.

Obviously, this is not a difficult task for Yuna Shimamura.

Vladimir vs. Ryze is a familiar and classic matchup for her. Even professional Ryze players can't easily crush her Vladimir, let alone a Diamond 1 low-ranked Master Ryze player like Longshen.

Therefore, the feeling presented is
Even though Dragon God had done his best to suppress Shimamura Yuna, he seemed to be using his skills recklessly and wasting his health.

But it was no use.

The vampire managed to land all the necessary hits and didn't lose much experience. His health bar looked low, but it was actually quite safe. He could occasionally use his Q to heal a little, keeping his health above Ryze's kill threshold.

On the contrary, because Ryujin was too focused on whittling down Shimamura's health, he missed too many attacks, resulting in fewer kills than Shimamura Yuna.

Under these circumstances, the arrogant Dragon God began to get a little irritated.

"Why is this idiot so good at twisting his body? Can you stop twisting like your dad?"

“It’s alright, your dad will kill you soon. Watch closely, all I need is this one move. If I go in now, he’s definitely going to die.”

Yes, through the long-term, unnoticed attrition, the vampire's health has actually been reduced to a level where he could be killed by Ryze in one combo.

Instead of backing down, Shimamura Yuna chose to continue to greedily collect soldiers, which the Dragon God saw as an opportunity.

Even the Dragon God could see this as an opportunity, so how could Shimamura Yuna not see it?

Yes, this was a flaw she deliberately created.

At this very moment, the jungler is frantically pinging signals to the top lane in the river, his intentions are self-evident.

Shimamura Yuna also understands the psychology of those who love to pressure in Diamond rank games. She knows that as Ryze gets weaker and weaker, and doesn't gain much besides a slight health advantage, they will get anxious.

If Vladimir recalls without securing a kill, his CS and experience are essentially the same as Ryze's. Once he gets his items, he will gradually catch up with Ryze in terms of lane advantage and disadvantage.

All previous expenditures will then become meaningless.

She knew that Ryze would desperately crave this kill, turning all the previous trading and attrition into something meaningful.

She understands the mindset of these self-important diamond players.

Sure enough, the other party was easily hooked by the flaw she had revealed and fell into the trap.
