Believe me, I really am a professional League of Legends player.

Chapter 102 No, you really know how? (Please subscribe)

Li Fan won the SSC Spring Championship with overwhelming force, and his identity as a "League of Legends professional player" was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a huge wave on the Internet.

#EDG's mid laner wins QQ Speed ​​championship#
This highly contrasting trending topic climbed at an astonishing speed, attracting a large number of netizens who did not originally follow QQ Speed ​​esports.

It's mainly clickbait...

It made everyone think for a moment and then click to take a look.

[Holy crap? Am I still half asleep? EDG's mid laner? Unreal? Isn't he a League of Legends player?]

[You read that right, it's EDG's mid laner Unreal. He went to play in the QQ Speed ​​professional league and then slaughtered a bunch of QQ Speed ​​pro players!]

[Two matches with scores of 7000, a 14-0 victory in the finals... This is truly a cross-dimensional attack! Is this the level of professional racing? I could do it too!]

That's true, you'd get a zero even if you took that test.

[It turns out that it's not that Unreal Engine is too strong, but rather that the entire professional racing scene is too weak! A single League player can easily dominate with minimal practice; it's laughable.]

Unreal Engine is amazing!

But later on, it gradually changed its flavor.

The discussion was originally about Li Fan's amazing gaming talent.

He actually won the championship in the professional racing scene...

As a result, the building gradually began to lean.

Of course, this is also related to the earlier verbal sparring between Alliance players and QQ Speed ​​players.

Because Li Fan is a professional League of Legends player.

They directly used this point to suppress racing game players.

[From now on, racing game players should respectfully address League of Legends players as "Lord League!" If you call them "LoL dogs" again, we'll send Unreal Engine to take all your racing championships.]

When racing game players saw this, they were furious and wanted to refute it, but they couldn't find any words to say in response.

Many people flocked to Li Fan's Weibo, requesting that he transition into a professional racing game player.

That way you won't feel disgusted.

However, some clever racing game players also left comments below.

[What if some League of Legends fans say that the professional players they don't want are now dominating in QQ Speed? Wouldn't that be even more disgusting? Just look at Meng Lei, a player who couldn't even make it as a substitute in League of Legends is now dominating in Honor of Kings...]

[Hmm... never mind then, I'll just stick to laning against the pet dog.]

However, amidst this chaos, an unexpected group quietly voiced its opinion, giving the debate a new perspective.

Some bloggers who are experts in League of Legends and QQ Speed ​​have started publishing long analysis posts.

You've all underestimated Unreal!

Rational analysis: Li Fan's victory proves just how terrifying his gaming talent is, not how weak his racing skills are.

First, it must be acknowledged that the competitive level of the SSC Spring Tournament is different from that of the King of Cars League, but the participants are by no means amateur players.

Jiang Zhangchuang, Liang Haihui, and Luo Wei are all top-tier professional players.

But they couldn't get a single point against Unreal Engine; they were crushed in every game.

This gap truly represents the difference between a novice and a professional player.

The key point is that Li Fan's learning ability and adaptability are phenomenal, and this is something that needs to be emphasized.

You might think I'm exaggerating here.

But in fact, his running style is entirely creative.

The current level of competition is still not as good as it was back then. I'm not exaggerating when I say that if future professional players can perform like this, the competition will become much more exciting.

Unreal truly ushered in a new era for QQ Speed ​​through his individual abilities.

Judging from previous live streams, many professional athletes have already learned the new running techniques for Springtime Joy through instruction.

Especially the sea turtle... his Springtime New Joyful Running Method seems to be quite proficient.

They were only two seconds behind. If the timing were chaotic in a real game, they would have a very good chance.

However, he alone obviously couldn't fight Li Fan.

Others must also have this level of skill.

Li Fanzhen is the one person who completely changed a competitive game.

It is foreseeable that if all professional players master these skills, the entertainment value of QQ Speed ​​professional competitions will rise several levels.

This might actually bring the game back to life.

The game has been quite popular lately; there aren't so many rooms that you can't find any even if you keep refreshing. Ranked matches are also relatively easy to get into instantly.

Below that are recent data for QQ Speed.

Conclusion: Li Fan's victory was a shining example of individual talent, rather than a denial of the overall level of a particular event.

The biggest winner of this farce is Li Fan himself, who proved that he possesses top-tier e-sports talent that transcends any single game.

This analysis post, titled "You've All Underestimated Unreal!", was like a depth charge dropped on a noisy battlefield.

At first, the players on both sides, caught up in their emotions, didn't take it too seriously. But as more people shared the article, some who read it carefully began to be stunned.

Is Unreal Engine really as amazing as this article claims?
This question has quietly surfaced in the minds of many people.

Especially for League of Legends players, they have more players to reference.

For example... Faker, the three-time world champion.

Winning a championship upon his debut was not his peak. He later achieved a back-to-back championships and this year he aims for his fourth championship and a three-peat.

From this perspective, isn't he even more of a genius?

So this article boasts a lot, but you only won a QQ Speed ​​championship, not even the King of Cars championship...

These marketing accounts are really going to great lengths to gain traffic, claiming connections everywhere.

Knowing you have a lot of fans, you specifically say things that your fans like, right?
[Forget it, a player like him trying to piggyback on the fame of three-time world champion Faker? What championships does he even have?]

【What's wrong? Doesn't a QQ Speed ​​champion count as a champion?】 This reply also included a screenshot of the 2017 QQ Speed ​​SSC Spring Championship officially verified by Weibo, along with a Weibo verified EDG mid-laner player, Unreal.

Many people were speechless after seeing this reply and photo.

This must be some kind of abstraction, right?

Then I clicked in and took a look...

It turns out that the verification has indeed been completed; it wasn't a photoshopped prank.

Unreal's approach remains as abstract as ever.

The competition only ended two hours ago, and you've already certified the champion?

What's the meaning of Weibo? When did it become so efficient? Wouldn't it take two or three days for someone else to review it? How did it get verified in just two hours?
……

Li Fan had already returned to the EDG base at this time.

Since the match ended very early, it's only 9 o'clock now, so I'm planning to do a live stream.

After all, there haven't been any live streams these past two days, and I've used up almost all my learning points, leaving me with only 200. I can't even do the Endless Tournament Simulation today, so I need to earn at least 300.

But as soon as I pushed the door open, I saw Kuaisu Xing standing behind my junior.

Judging from this, they're playing a practice match.

Indeed, the competition is in two days, so it's normal to play practice matches.

WE secured first place in Group B.

This means that EDG, who finished second in Group B, will now face NB, the team that defeated iG today. The match will take place on the 20th.

After the racing competition ended, Li Fan also watched the video.

At that point, it was already in its final stages.

The 100,000-volt barrel really knocked out all five members of iG.

Ultimately, he led his team to a 3-1 victory over IG, securing their ticket to the next round.

I don't know if it's just my imagination...

They seemed quite relaxed during today's match. When the camera focused on the players, they all had smiles on their faces and were constantly exchanging messages.

It seemed that going into a state of mental instability had no effect on them; on the contrary, they became stronger after adapting. When Quick Star saw Li Fan push open the door and enter, he was all smiles and immediately began communicating with Li Fan in English.

Ever since I learned that Li Fan was learning English on his own, I would chat with him from time to time.

There are no major problems with daily communication anymore.

"You're back? I heard you did very well in the race and won the championship."

His shout immediately drew the attention of all the other team members in the training room.

Everyone knows that Li Fan took two days off to participate in the competition.

A rare, barely perceptible hint of embarrassment appeared on Li Fan's face.

He touched his nose, nodded, and hummed in agreement.

After all, the idea of ​​a mid-lane player winning a QQ Speed ​​championship sounds a bit surreal.

Especially now, at such a critical time.

Playoffs.

Although neither the manager nor the coach said anything, Li Fan didn't know what his teammates were thinking, so there was no need to make a big fuss about it.

Are they playing a practice match?

"Yes, we arranged a scrim with WE."

The main reason EDG is facing WE is because of a group assignment; if EDG wants to play against WE, they have to reach the finals.

Therefore, playing scrims now won't have much impact on either team.

It also serves as a training tool.

"Training? Better to be lucky than early. You're the one who goes in."

Li Fan thought about it and realized it made sense.

I don't play ranked games regularly, but I still have to play scrims, otherwise my teammates will be affected.

After all, the effect of a practice match is ten times better than that of a ranked match.

Scout's good mood vanished instantly upon seeing Li Fan return to the base.

But just a second later, he forced a natural smile, even stood up from his seat, gestured to Li Fan, and said in accented Chinese, "The coach asked you to play this round, so you can play it."

He acted extremely magnanimously, as if he were genuinely happy for his teammates' return.

However, as he turned to get the water, a barely perceptible chill flashed deep in his eyes.

"He's back so fast... He hasn't touched the league for two days, and he's already playing a scrim against WE? And against Xiye, who's in hot form..." Scout sneered inwardly. He didn't think Li Fan could perform well in a scrim.

Did you really think that you could easily maintain your condition without training just because everyone praised you a couple of times?
It's just that Li Fan's poor performance makes his own good performance stand out.

He could almost foresee what would happen next: Li Fan's skills would become rusty, he would be suppressed by Xiye in lane, he would be out of sync in team fights, and then EDG would be easily crushed by WE.

In time, the coach and teammates will naturally understand who the more stable and reliable mid-laner is.

The crucial moments of the playoffs are no joke.

"Then I'll go get a chair."

The main reason is... he's not used to sitting on hot stools made by others, as it makes his buttocks prone to sores.

Quickstar glanced at Scout: "Why don't you go get a chair?"

Scout never expected that Fast Star Thirty-Six Degrees could utter such cold words.

Do you have to move your own stool?

But when he glared at her... she was still very unhappy, but her body betrayed her, and she went over and moved Li Fan's chair over.

Li Fan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Koreans are terrifying... they really know how to do this.

If Quickstar doesn't leave, Scout will be in a really tough spot at EDG.

The coach from QuickStar stood behind him and said, "Galio is a must-pick in this version. We're on the blue side this game, so the other team probably won't pick Galio. Can you take him?"

After all, scrims are for practicing the strongest heroes in the current meta.

Therefore, these heroes will not be banned.

The ban/pick process is still quite flexible.

"Mm," Li Fan responded calmly, his tone revealing no nervousness or awkwardness.

I was surprised to hear about this fast star; is it even an option?

This hero was just reworked...

But a smile appeared on his face the next second.

If we have a choice, then let's take it!

Let's see how you perform in the practice matches.

Although Galio is positioned as a top laner, his skills are not too problematic in the mid lane because his AP is indeed high and he is very effective against mage champions.

"You know how?" the factory manager asked doubtfully.

"Have you ever seen me pull out a hero that I don't know how to play?"

The lineups for both sides were quickly finalized.

Blue side EDG: Top laner Gnar, jungler Jarvan IV, mid laner Galio, bot lane duo Lucian and Braum.

Red team WE: Top lane Jayce, jungle Lee Sin, mid lane Taliyah, bot lane duo Jinx and Tahm Kench.

As soon as they entered, Li Fan fought very fiercely against Xi Ye's Taliyah.

The main issue is that Taliyah's wave clear ability is completely inadequate against Galio now.

With the Q skill and passive combined, a wave of minions can be easily cleared.

When the third-level factory manager came to arrest him, Li Fan immediately began to gather his strength.

Xi Ye saw this and used Flash to escape without even thinking.

This is what makes Galio so overpowered right now: you can use Flash while charging up his W.

If you don't use Flash, and your opponent uses W to Flash and you get controlled, followed by their E skill, you're guaranteed to die.

This forced a dodge...

To the factory manager's surprise, he deliberately didn't mention this technique, wanting to see just how much Li Fan knew about Galio.

Taliyah, who no longer has Flash, will try again if it didn't work this time.

Xi Ye tried to hide for a long time but still couldn't escape.

Li Fan flashed, used W to taunt, then used Q skill followed by E, landing another punch that dealt maximum damage, securing first blood with the help of Clearlove.

"Holy crap, you actually know how to do that?"

The factory manager found the operation incredibly smooth.

The main reason is that the skill level required for this routine is just too high; it's impossible to play it this fast without practice.

"Hehehe, I wouldn't dare choose anywhere."

The more Kuai Xing looked at the back, the happier he became. Sure enough, Li Fan did not disappoint him. Even when he was competing outside, he did not forget to practice these heroes.

The new hero Galio has a lot of potential.

There must be one player in the top lane and one in the mid lane who is proficient in this hero.

Otherwise, there would definitely be limitations on the ban/pick phase.

When a coach wants the players to pick suitable heroes for their team composition, and the player says "I don't know how," it's like a skilled cook trying to make a meal without ingredients.

EDG then focused on Galio in the mid lane, making aggressive plays and quickly built a 10-1 lead in just ten minutes.

In this situation, even if WE could continue to drag the game out, they still typed GG in the public chat and surrendered in the first scrim.

Scout watched this practice match in disbelief.

Xiba!

What is the situation?
I'm not very proficient with this hero, so why is this person who went to the competition for two days more proficient than me?
