League: I really didn't tank!

Since the opposing team has picked a champion like Gangplank who relies on farming, they definitely can't play the lane-swap self-destruct strategy anymore. Chen Dongqing confidently bought a Doran's Blade and headed to the top lane.

His talent build for this game was still the standard 12-18-0, with Thunderlord's Decree as his keystone rune.

But in this game, he put some thought into the runes.

The blue standard setup consists of six fixed cooldown reductions plus three scaling cooldown reductions, which can stack cooldown reduction to exactly 10% at level 18. The yellow setup remains the standard nine armor reductions.

However, the red runes and the Greater Quintessences runes are slightly different. Chen Dongqing did not choose the conventional attack power runes, but instead allocated all points to armor penetration.

This armor penetration rune setup deals more damage against champions than attack damage runes. At level 1, a full set of this rune setup deals 50 more damage than attack damage runes, and the benefits of this armor penetration attribute become greater as the game progresses!

However, the downside is that the damage is slightly insufficient when last-hitting minions and pushing towers.

Chen Dongqing had wanted to create this set of runes for a long time, but unfortunately, he only had three rune pages in his area, which was simply not enough.

However, the servers used in LPL matches are all private servers built by the official team, so the player accounts have all runes, all heroes, all skins, plus twenty pages of rune pages, which made Chen Dongqing very happy.

Soon, everyone adopted standard defensive positioning in the jungle, without any intention of engaging in a level 1 team fight.

At this moment, Xiangguo asked, "Are you two going to farm the jungle and then go to lane?"

The two he was referring to were, of course, the bot lane duo.

Uzi nodded: "Of course I have to farm, otherwise I can't play the lane. Kalista needs to get level 2 first to gain an advantage."

In the current version, clearing a set of jungle monsters in the bottom lane is considered a standard start, allowing the bottom lane duo to reach level two a wave of minions earlier.

Of course, it also depends on your bot lane duo. If your bot lane is a combination like Ezreal and Lulu that lacks crowd control, then you won't be able to farm effectively and will lose a lot of health.

Their Kalista and Alistar combo in this game had no problems and farmed very quickly.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Chen Dongqing also said, "Can I eat a blue buff monster?"

This version of the buff is not a lone buff, but comes with two minions. Correspondingly, F6 is still F4, and the stone beetle will not split yet.

The jungle monsters hadn't even been cleared yet, and two jungle monsters had already been claimed. Xiangguo didn't seem to mind, simply saying, "Whatever."

Chen Dongqing nodded and waited patiently at the blue buff while controlling Riven.

Once the first wave of minions is cleared in the top lane, the top laner's experience points will reach the maximum of level one. If they receive additional experience from any source, such as clearing wards or farming jungle camps, they can immediately level up to level two.

In this game, Chen Dongqing planned to farm a small monster in the Blue Buff camp before logging back in, so that he could gain an experience advantage and directly reach level two with a wave of minions.

The same applies to this level 2 rush route; not many heroes can execute it well, after all, the level 1 blue buff is no joke.

A hero carrying the blue buff can easily take down a small monster, causing many heroes to lose a lot of health. In this case, even if they manage to get the second rank, it's not very meaningful, since they won't have enough health to fight back.

Riven is different. This champion has considerable burst damage at level one and can also knock away the blue buff with three Qs. If played properly, she can even do it without taking any damage.

Wild monsters respawn at 1 minute and 40 seconds.

Chen Dongqing timed it perfectly, and at 1 minute and 39 seconds, he first played a short Q.

A second later, the azure-blue carved stone statue sprang out from the crack in the rock, and two little monsters appeared out of thin air at its feet.

Time was of the essence, and Chen Dongqing immediately made his move, first hitting the monster with a basic attack that had been active, then quickly canceling the basic attack's animation with Q, and then instantly following up with another basic attack by tapping the ground!

When Blue Buff saw his little brother being bullied, he quickly stepped in front of the white-haired female warrior and slammed his double hammers down!

But in that instant, Riven unleashed her third Q, the blade striking the ground and interrupting the Blue Buff's basic attack.

Then, with her final basic attack, the monster's health bar was emptied, and it was converted into experience and gold, which entered Riven's body.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Dongqing walked away, and the blue buff didn't hit him at all.

Although I was hit twice by two small monsters, the attack power of the small monsters with the blue buff in the early stages was only in single digits, so they couldn't cause any effective damage.

Riven recovered almost all of her health from those three hits with Doran's Blade, and she'll definitely be fully healed by the time the minions arrive.

The advantage of experience has been established.

Chen Dongqing was already thinking about how to leverage this advantage to break through the current situation.

At this point, the top lane minions had already clashed, and 957's Gangplank hadn't placed the powder keg beforehand, suggesting he was using a Q-max playstyle.

At level 1, Riven doesn't have the shield from her E skill yet, and Gangplank's Grasp of the Undying Q is incredibly powerful, so learning Q isn't a problem.

If 957 could press TAB to take a look at this moment, he would see that Riven had 1 CS, and then he would get the information that Riven had eaten a small jungle monster.

But 957 only glanced at Riven's health bar and didn't think too much about it.

After all, Riven is at full health now, and doesn't look like she's just finished farming jungle camps.

Clearly, this is also Leg Bro's first day on the LPL stage, and he is a little nervous and cannot be perfect in every aspect.

Meanwhile, Chen Dongqing, the seasoned veteran who had traveled back in time, was quite relaxed. He watched the minions fight in the middle while he slowly used his Q skill from behind, timing each attack to release at the very last second.

Soon, all the melee units on both sides were reduced to low health.

957 finally couldn't hold back any longer and slashed at the soldier with his fire sword.

Chen Dongqing immediately stepped forward, used a three-stage Q to dash, and then hit a minion with a basic attack to finish it off, but the price was that he immediately took a Q hit.

However, because the captain kept holding onto his Fire Blade and didn't attack minions, the Q attack didn't kill him and didn't do much damage.

Chen Dongqing remained calm and finished off the minions with two more basic attacks. However, this time he never left the minion wave and instead kept a very close distance to the captain.

The Captain's Q skill has a four-second cooldown, while Riven's cooldown after using Q is five seconds for last-hitting minions. Considering the skill release order, both Qs should be ready at the same time.

In other words, if the captain dares to use Q on Riven again, he will inevitably be hit by Riven's Q at close range and get slashed repeatedly.

957 was aware of this situation, but he seemed completely unafraid. As soon as the Captain's Q skill was ready, he immediately fired another Q [Gunfire Negotiation]!

At this moment, Chen Dongqing quickly seized the opportunity, directly using two Q attacks to stick to the captain's face, and then unleashing a basic attack!

957 didn't back down and immediately retaliated with a normal attack before pulling back.

Chen Dongqing didn't rush to use the three-stage Q. Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity to auto-attack and used another basic attack. Then, he immediately used the three-stage Q to dash and hit the spaceship captain, followed by another basic attack!

Boom! A bolt of blue lightning struck, triggering a devastating attack that reduced the captain's health by a third.

After finishing his routine, Chen Dongqing turned and left.

But 957 calmly drank the crystal bottle, retaliated with another basic attack on Riven, and then continued the chase, landing another Grasp of the Undying Q!

After this exchange of blows, both sides actually lost about the same amount of health, about a third of their health.

957 nodded in satisfaction.

If Riven uses her two Qs to deal damage at close range, her dueling ability is not as good as most top laners, so 957 is not too worried.

He knew Riven had a Doran's Blade, while he had a Crystal Flask, so trading blows would definitely be a win for him.

After another round of substitutions, Riven will have to go home.

But Chen Dongqing nodded in satisfaction.

He doesn't care whether this personnel reshuffle is profitable or not.

Because the captain has entered his kill line.

At that moment, the camera switched to the top lane, and everyone saw the exchange of blows in the top lane.

"Wow, Riven's playing really aggressively!" Wawa exclaimed in surprise. "They've traded a lot of health!"

Miller frowned: "But Riven isn't doing very well, is she? Is he trading Doran's Blade for a Crystal Flask? If he gets hit by two more Qs, he'll have to go back to base! And Condi is already farming high up, Riven's health might be in danger!"

【Huh? That's all?】

This blood transfusion is worse than mine. I know Riven needs to be two levels higher to be effective against Gangplank.

[Hilarious, you've forgotten how to lane, huh?]

This is what happens if you don't play ranked matches for a month.

At this moment, many knowledgeable viewers in the chat were making sarcastic remarks, but none of them noticed that although both sides only last-hit three melee minions, Riven had four last-hit minions.

This means Riven is just three ranged minions away from reaching level two.
