You promised a top lane tutorial, but you're just using Worlds as material for your videos?

Chapter 3: I can't get an A!
at the same time.

Douyu TV.

A live stream titled "[Clear Thinking, I'm a Diamond Level 1]" is quite popular.

Seeing that the opposing team had picked Fiora for top lane, Yu XiaoC laughed twice and said, "Brothers, I think we've got this game in the bag against Fiora!"

"If I win this game, I, Yu Xiao C, will be back in the Master rank!"

Yu XiaoC is currently playing in the Masters promotion tournament. His record in the first four games was win-loss-win-loss. This game is the fifth and crucial game of the promotion tournament.

Upon arriving at the loading screen, Yu Xiao C checked the ranks of both sides and found that the opposing Fiora was only Diamond I, which immediately made her look much more relaxed.

"Haha, Ignite Fiora! What Fiora doesn't have Teleport? Brothers, this game is really in the bag!"

"This Diamond 1 Fiora is a piece of cake for me, Yu!"

"Are there any viewers in the live stream who can't beat Fiora with Darius? Watch this game carefully and learn from it. I, Yu, will only teach you this once!"

These words immediately sparked a flurry of activity in the live stream chat.

Looking down on Diamond I players? Aren't you Diamond I yourself?

[Waiting to see Little C get completely outmaneuvered by this Fiora!]

[Waiting for Darius to get completely destroyed by Fiora!]

To be honest, I feel like this Fiora can't beat Little C!

Look at this Fiora's ID, it's "Top Lane Ancestor," how lame!

To be honest, Fiora with Ignite isn't a very good pick!

[You Darius are allowed to take Ghost, but I, Fiora, am not allowed to take Ignite?]

Is it possible—and I mean just possible—that this Fiora thinks Darius is a noob, so she took Ignite?

[Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could I, Yu Xiao C, possibly be a noob!]

【.】

Soon, the loading was complete, and we entered Summoner's Rift.

Yu Xiao C quickly bought a Doran's Blade and a health potion, then controlled Darius to head straight for the top lane, saying as he did so:
"We'll start with a Doran's Blade, level up W at level 1, and then directly push the minion wave to pressure Fiora!"

Darius went straight to the top lane, walked to the front bush on the top lane, and crouched down in the bush in front of the red team's top turret.

If Fiora goes to lane normally, she's easily caught and chased down by Darius.

If Fiora loses too much health, she won't be able to lane anymore.

Even without taking down her health, you can still pressure Fiora to lose experience from the first three melee minions.

After entering the game, Zhou Dian also bought a Doran's Blade and a health potion, and then controlled Fiora to head straight for the river.

Based on Zhou Dian's extensive experience in the top lane from his previous life, he naturally considered the possibility that Darius might be lurking in the bushes on the top lane.

So, Zhou Dian went to the river grass next to the top road.

As long as you don't get caught, you can get the experience from the first three melee soldiers.

One minute later, the first wave of minions converged on the top lane.

However, the top lane was completely empty; neither Darius nor Fiora appeared on the lane.

With this in mind, Zhou Dian was certain that Darius was definitely camping in the bushes in front of him.

At times like this, patience is needed; if Darius doesn't come out, he resolutely won't either.

At this moment, in Yu XiaoC's live stream room on Douyu TV.

Seeing that the minion waves had been intersecting for several seconds but Fiora was nowhere to be seen, Yu Xiao C couldn't help but say, "Huh, where did Fiora go? Why isn't she back online yet? Did she disconnect?"

"Wait a little longer, I refuse to believe I won't be able to catch this Fiora!"

However, seeing the melee minions' health dwindling, Yu XiaoC finally succumbed to their allure and controlled Darius to emerge from the bushes on the lane.

"Forget it, I'm not waiting anymore. This Fiora is even willing to forgo the experience from the first three minions. You're ruthless!"

Darius passed three ranged minions on the red side, arrived next to the melee minions, and used his auto-attack followed by his W to finish off two low-health red melee minions. Then, with another auto-attack, he took down the remaining red melee minion with a sliver of health.

Darius last-hit all three melee minions.

"My last hit was perfect!" Yu Xiao C boasted.

As soon as he finished speaking, a Fiora emerged from the river bush diagonally below Darius. After last-hitting three melee minions, Darius had already retreated to his normal lane position.

At this moment, Zhou Dian controlled Fiora to come out of the river and come to the lane, where Darius could not touch her.

In this way, Fiora not only gained experience from the first three minions, but also managed to farm a melee minion.

Yu Xiao C's plan to suppress Fiora's experience at level 1 was completely thwarted.

Zhou Dian easily defused the situation.

Suddenly, Yu Xiao C shouted, "Holy crap, how did he get out of here!"

"Ugh, I didn't gain any experience advantage and Fiora even managed to finish me off! I'm so annoyed!"

The viewers in the live stream were amused.

[This is hilarious! I waited for ages and nobody fell for it!]

[Pure intellectual dominance!]

Why do I feel like Fiora was playing a stupid counter to skilled players this time?

[Hard to say, let's wait and see. This top laner seems to have something going for him. I have a feeling Little C is going to be in big trouble this game!]

【.】

With the first three melee minions of both sides dying in the first wave of minions, Darius and Fiora returned to their normal laning rhythm.

However, Yu XiaoC couldn't help but feel a little resentful that Darius didn't gain any advantage against Fiora at level one.

So, seizing the opportunity when Fiora was last-hitting a minion, Yu XiaoC immediately controlled Darius to move forward and try to steal a last-hit on Fiora.

On the other side, Zhou Dian immediately realized Darius's intention and decisively pressed the S key, interrupting Fiora's auto-attack on a minion.

When Darius attacked Fiora, Fiora, with her faster attack speed, had already attacked Darius first.

The next moment, Fiora used a short Q, hitting Darius and then dashing out of Darius's auto-attack range.

At the same time, Darius activated Crippling Strike (W), but couldn't land any auto-attacks on Fiora.

Yu Xiao C was initially delighted when she saw Fiora retaliate.

Darius can land an auto-attack followed by a W on Fiora. After Fiora is slowed down, Darius can still chase after her and auto-attack her again, making this a very profitable play.

But now, Darius has wasted his W skill, squandering 40 mana.

"Wow, that Fiora's AQ combo is so fast!"

"I shouldn't have been greedy for that one auto-attack. Next time, I'll just use W and A on this Fiora!"

As Yu XiaoC spoke, she controlled Darius, who had activated his W skill, to auto-attack a minion, putting the W skill on cooldown.

A few seconds later, Darius's W skill was off cooldown, and Yu XiaoC immediately pushed forward again.

In the early game, you absolutely cannot let Fiora have too much of an easy time!
This time, Darius's weakness was facing Fiora head-on.

Yu XiaoC felt that the opposing Fiora would definitely be unable to resist using her Q to poke at this weakness.

This time he definitely won't be greedy for basic attacks. As soon as Fiora uses her Q, Darius immediately uses W and A to slow her down, and then he just keeps chasing and slashing.

Sure enough, as soon as Darius got close to Fiora, Fiora immediately used her Q to stab him.

"Crippling blow!"

Yu XiaoC shouted and pressed the W key.

Blood immediately splattered from Darius's great axe, and the effect of Crippling Strike (W) appeared.

However, that's all.

He did not swing the large axe in his hand.

The reason is simple: Fiora was outside Darius's basic attack range.

Fiora landed another short Q, both hitting Darius's weak spot and maintaining a perfect distance between them.

Even though Darius's basic attack range increases by 25 yards after activating his W skill, he still can't hit Fiora.

Yu Xiao C frantically clicked the right mouse button, clicking the Fiora several times in an instant, but he just couldn't land an attack.

He yelled in frustration, "Aaaaaah, I can't get an A!"
