You actually want me to...

After killing the enemy Bard, Roland's advantage began to emerge. The champion Varus was chosen because he already had lane control and control of the first dragon. With the addition of Leona, the enemy bot lane duo didn't even dare to leave their tower and just stayed under it.

With a mid-to-low advantage, Widow's game experience instantly improves.

With Dragon in control and jungle cleared, Widowmaker immediately went to the enemy jungle to start mining gold.

You're playing with Kun Kun, right?

Happy Farm, right?

The entire lower jungle is ours, and there's a risk of the enemy invading the upper jungle. We only have a small half of the jungle left, plus a grotesque rock golem that we can't catch. With that little room to maneuver, the enemy Ivern can't really create any momentum.

"See, brothers? The key to climbing the ranks in this version is lane control. If you have lane control, the jungler can make plays. Conversely, if you don't have lane control, the jungler can't go anywhere. Plus, with the buff to the dragons, the bot lane absolutely cannot have a weak draft if they want to win." While instructing the viewers in his live stream, Roland's actions became increasingly unrestrained.

Previously, he would pretend to roam while actually using vision control to ambush in bushes, watching to see if the enemy bot lane duo would take the bait and have designs on his AD. Now, however, he's making a decisive move, no longer even pretending. He simply recalls alone and gives his AD a retreat signal; whether they understand it is entirely up to fate.

The opposing team doesn't want to come to the bottom lane to find them, but Roland wants to cause trouble for them.

When the bottom lane has a significant advantage and the enemy doesn't have any strong engage potential, it's not very meaningful for Leona to stay in the bottom lane. In this case, she must roam.

What kind of support is the most terrifying in the Rift?

Let me describe it this way.

It's as if God lit incense, Ip Man pulled out a gun, Red Hair grew arms, and the top laner got a dog.

Imagine this: you're wrestling with the enemy top laner in the top lane, and you realize that the enemy jungler isn't going to have a 1v1 duel anymore, when suddenly a support jumps out from behind the enemy. How would that feel?

That feeling can only be described as utter despair.

What if a Talon player jumps over the wall from next door?

That would be even more hopeless.

Darius was dominating the top lane, and his own jungler was frequently roaming the upper jungle, preparing to forcefully break through the opponent's turtle-like defense and lead the team to victory.

Before he could even make a move, the stone golem on the other side moved first.

"Let's crash it!"

"Oh!"

In Diamond-ranked games, those who dare to pick Malphite top lane are either die-hard fans who specialize in it or casual players guarding the Diamond gate. They may not be as skilled as other players in the same rank, but this small group of players knows how to play the game better than most of them.

Just like this person who made the decision, he was so decisive that even the Bottle Emperor exclaimed that he was an expert.

Before Darius could even react to what was happening, a ray of sunlight descended from the sky and struck him the instant he landed.

Solar flares

The Japanese woman has made her move.

Before Darius could even type "MISS," another Talon inexplicably jumped out from just across the wall, and Darius immediately typed "GG."

[Everyone] Top Lane Quality Inspector (Hand of Noxus): Mid laner is one thing, but support, you came all this way to top lane to gank your dad? Can't you handle this?

[Everyone] Lian Fangshi (Goddess of Dawn): Woof!

Darius: ...

Live stream viewers: ...

Players from both the red and blue teams: ...

Team leaders of various clubs: ...

First Encounter: Chapter Five: The Shadow Behind

[Damn, I'm definitely following this livestream today.]

[Unbelievable! How can you be so shameless?]

[Seriously, those LPL clubs would have ripped off if they hadn't bought you. This is way better for entertainment than those awkward chat vlogs the players deliberately filmed.]

To be fair, that's true.

Seeing the gifts and comments that flooded the bottom right corner instantly, Roland didn't feel embarrassed at all; in fact, he almost laughed.

face?

What is that thing?

Does money matter for that thing?

Most people only see Roland battling the game, but in reality, he's battling life itself. An LDL pro player only earns a little over ten thousand a month, which seems like a lot, but a person can only play professionally for a few years in their entire career.

If he doesn't achieve good results and earn enough money during his professional career, what can he do after he retires?

Drilling holes in the sea?

Or should I join the ranks of the Civil Engineering forum's guys carrying buckets?

He never expected that it was precisely his carefree and genuine nature that touched several team leaders who were watching his live stream.

"Putting aside his skills, I want him just for the ability to create this kind of program effect. Let's send him a trial invitation, it's a good way to do him a favor."

Unlike coaches, team leaders, while focusing on team performance, are even more concerned with the economic benefits of each player. After all, clubs also need to make money.

In the entire LPL, only one club can make money, and that is EDG. Only two clubs can be self-sufficient, namely WE and IG. Apart from the champion team FPX, the rest of the clubs are lucky if they don't lose money.

Moreover, most teams generally lack achievements, popularity, and cultural heritage, and their internal culture is not as good as those teams (such as RNG's male-dominated culture and FPX's monkey-themed culture).

Without hesitation, following this memorable moment, five or six LPL clubs simultaneously extended trial invitations to Roland. However, he is currently engrossed in live streaming and has not yet seen the messages on his phone.

In fact, Roland, who has been playing for more than a year and has already secured his position as the top support in LDL, is not someone that these team leaders need to worry too much about. The main reason why these people came to observe him is to figure out whether his playstyle is compatible with their own AD carry.

Judging from his current playstyle, he is quite aggressive and confident, as evidenced by his level 2 Flash E and his decisive gank at level 6.

Although his current confidence may not last until he enters the competition, at least he can demonstrate it now, and that's enough.

After Roland's counterattack, the opposing Darius fell silent. Having dominated the Rift for so many years, this was probably the first time he'd encountered such a devastating attack, and he was clearly quite shocked.

With advantages in the mid, bottom, and jungle lanes, even the top lane, which was the only disadvantageous lane, returned to an even position after this gank by the mid and support. At this point, the opposing team could basically be eliminated.

The biggest difference between the S10 preseason version and previous versions is that the snowballing ability of the winning side is far greater than in any previous version, because the elemental dragon soul is just too strong these days.

The Fire Dragon Soul is equivalent to having a skill damage advantage over the opponent. The Wind Dragon Soul's cooldown reduction has a significant benefit for many heroes. The Water Dragon Soul can improve the survivability of front-line tanks. In other words, the Earth Dragon Soul is relatively weaker, as it only provides a shield.

However, if three of the four dragons are earth dragons, the resistance bonus is still high. The four dragon souls have different attributes, but in reality, apart from the earth dragon soul, it is indeed very difficult for the disadvantaged side to turn the tide.

There's no way around it. After all, a famous Chinese animation already explained the priority relationship of attributes to us a long time ago. If you don't believe me, think back to the Earth Tiger Hero in Five Elements. Doesn't he even have a decent line? He's almost become a phone bill hero.

Seeing this, many team leaders have already left the live stream. When a club recruits during the transfer window, they certainly won't just look at one or two players. They won't spend too much time on a support player who might not even get playing time. Compared to the support position, they are obviously more concerned about recruiting players for other positions.

In this annual breath-holding contest, too many star players have been left out as free agents: for example, Karsa, JackeyLove, Sofm, and OTTO [doge emoji].

A group of team leaders left the live stream room silently, but one person remained: TES's coach, White Crescent.

As one of the few LPL coaches who has been coaching TES for a year and a half since his debut in 2014 and can be found on Baidu, White Crescent naturally has a different understanding than others.

In terms of coaching ability alone, White Crescent's level is clearly not on par with Redmi or Chashao, and he often appears rather mediocre. This is related to his personality; due to his lack of assertiveness and lack of personal accolades, he lacks authority and therefore has limited control over the team in many situations.

This is his weakness, but he also has his strengths.

His skill level is at least online. During S8, he was able to lead his team to the playoffs with the "King of Soldiers". He is a coach who is particularly suitable for the transition of newly established teams. He can bring a player with a score of 40 to a score of 70. In a sense, he is particularly suitable for the neighboring EDG.

As for why he kept it.

Firstly, as a master of nurturing new talent, he noticed Roland's potential early on. It's not that the newly promoted Prophet in the team is bad, but compared to the Prophet who is already a veteran player, the vitality of the new player is more important to him.

The S10 version is expected to be a version focused on skill, requiring teams to have an additional player who dares to engage and initiate attacks. Roland is a more perfect fit for this role than the Prophet.

Just as White Crescent was still pondering, the scene before him suddenly made him open his eyes wide.

The game on screen was nearing its end. The previous team fights had ended in near-total domination thanks to Roland's superior lineup, and in this final push to the high ground, Roland once again showcased his brilliance.

Use vision control, charge up Hexflash and press it.

The instant he landed after flashing through the wall, he used his E skill to suddenly reach towards the enemy AD carry, while simultaneously unleashing his ultimate, Solar Flare.

"I am the sun's choice!"

The ultimate skill wasn't aimed at AD's original position, but rather at a more distant, empty area.

Without hesitation, without considering, and without even caring about whether he would miss his skill, he simply pointed his ultimate at that spot.

At this moment, Roland in front of the screen had perfected all his operations to the smoothest possible level.

Leona's actions stunned her own teammates, but also alarmed the enemy AD carry. When Miss Fortune suddenly saw Leona fly out from behind the wall and point at her, his first reaction was to flash behind him.

Then, just like the script suddenly played out.

As the female enemy flew over, her ultimate skill successfully predicted the landing point of her Flash.

Japanese woman, control connection successful!

Holy crap, 666666!

[If this wasn't a fluke, I'd say whatever I want.]

[Amazing! This was clearly a prediction of the opponent's Flash from the start. Anyone saying this was a bluff is at least a Gold rank player?]

[Damn it, he's put it on again.]

To execute this maneuver smoothly, one must first plan the actions in their mind. Having completed this series of actions, Roland knew very well that once he chose this path, there was no turning back.

But he succeeded.

"See that? This is the Leona King! If you want to learn how to play Leona, please subscribe to my live stream. As long as you watch my live stream, I guarantee you can play as well as the streamer in ranked games."

If this is a success, then we absolutely have to install it.

Driven by greed, Roland immediately began boasting about his play. With Leona's precise initiation, the blue team's lineup completely collapsed, conceding defeat. At the same time, White Crescent closed Roland's stream, nodded thoughtfully, and began writing in his notebook.

Although he only watched one match, combined with previous match recordings, he gained a general understanding of the player:

They may be rough on the details of laning, but they have a keen sense of teamwork.

His overall abilities are relatively weak, but his ability to seize opportunities in team fights is extremely strong. His understanding of vision is still rudimentary, but generally within an acceptable range and can be improved.

Having written this far, White Crescent Moon roughly understands why the "big fish" specifically wanted this person to be its assistant.

If you only look at Roland's above conditions, his stats are actually only those of a second-rate support player in the LPL, because he also has quite a few shortcomings.

However, these shortcomings are not difficult to correct, and once corrected, coupled with that person's personal skill and temperament, the upper and lower limits of this bot lane duo will be so high that they are hard to surpass.

Most importantly, what he saw in Roland's every move was the unique quality of that contestant: decisive, confident, arrogant, and unafraid to take the blame, and in a sense, all of them were very dog-like.
