League: I really didn't tank!

007 The Changes Triggered by Chen Dongqing

Of course, muddling through won't help Ba Ge win.

While Garen was still farming under the tower, Chen Dongqing's Black Cleaver Riven had already reached the enemy mid lane, killing the enemy mid and jungle, and then taking the dragon.

The game is now out of balance.

"Wow, my Holly's amazing!" Xiangguo exclaimed in surprise, "How come you've suddenly become so strong?"

"So-so, my Shiyu." Chen Dongqing was still putting on airs. "Just killing some random opponents, I wasn't even taking it seriously."

"It's installed, right?"

The game continued, and Chen Dongqing went home and combined the Greedy Hydra, then bought the Armor Piercing Bow, completing the three-piece set.

At this moment, the minions had already pushed to the enemy base. Chen Dongqing saw that several of the enemy players had already retreated into the fountain and refused to come out. Only Ba Ge, who was a streamer, had not given up.

Of course, he didn't dare stay at home either; he farmed minions in the bottom lane, waiting for his base to be pushed...

Seeing this, Chen Dongqing suddenly had an idea: "Xiangguo, look at me, watch me give you a fierce move."

After saying that, Riven activated her ultimate ability and charged straight into the enemy fountain.

As soon as Xiangguo switched the camera, he saw Riven standing outside the fountain and immediately using her E skill to dash into the fountain.

The laser from the fountain locked onto Riven instantly, and in the next instant, it would deal 1,000 points of true damage!

While Riven was in her E (Charge Forward) state, she used the ER combo to unleash her ultimate, Wind Slash, directly at the group in the fountain.

Start with your ultimate move!

Just as her ultimate ability was thrown and was still at its flight point, Riven swung her greatsword once more.

This time it's the active effect of the Greedy Hydra. After use, it will perform a slash in the area in front of the hero!

There's a hidden trick to this active effect: you can press the flash button while using it.

It's similar to Lee Sin's E-Flash and Yasuo's Q-Flash, allowing you to quickly bring the slash forward.

Using this little trick, Riven directly applied the effect of the slash to the faces of the enemy's fountain-dwelling heroes.

Just then, the little trinket crouching in the fountain noticed Riven's action. In order to stop Riven from fountain diving, he immediately pressed R, trying to push Riven away.

But before he could even cast his R, Riven's W [Soul Roar] struck, stunning him instantly!

Immediately following, a Q-style "Dance of Broken Wings" played.

Riven's W followed by a Q combo is very fast; the speed of the combo depends solely on your hand speed.

If your hand speed is fast enough, these two instances of damage can even be dealt simultaneously, merging into a single damage number.

And it's not that simple.

Just as Riven unleashed her WQ combo, lowering Tristana's health, the previously cast [Wind Slash] also flew over there!

The damage from Gale Slash was dealt almost simultaneously with WQ, but slightly slower, thus absorbing the execute effect after the target's health was reduced.

Therefore, the three damage instances of W, Q, and R are combined to create a terrifying number!

1557!

The next instant, a bolt of lightning finally struck, a decree from the Thunder Lord.

But this time, the Thunder Lord came up empty-handed.

Because after that burst of damage, Tristana's health was instantly depleted, and Thunderlord's Decree didn't even have time to deal damage!

"Double kill!"

The plane, which was also crouching at the base, had its health bar emptied at the same time; neither of the two squishy characters survived for even 0.1 seconds.

The sequence ER Tiamat Flash WQ must be completed before the ultimate ability's flight ends.

This combo was something Chen Dongqing learned from watching highlight reels in his previous life, but it was quite difficult, and he had never used it before.

He tried it out and was surprised to find it worked on the first try.

It doesn't seem difficult.

"Holy crap!" Ba Ge was dumbfounded when he saw this. "How did they do that so fast?"

In his vision, Riven flashed past, pressed something, and then Tristana and Corki were gone!

Flash deals that much damage?

【? ? ? 】

Holy crap, so handsome!

Seeing this, I can only say it's no wonder Ba Ge is acting this way; this Riven is a monster.

Indeed, Ba Ge's loss was not unjust.

[It's already been recorded. I'll ask on Black and White QQ.]

At this moment, the live stream chat was buzzing with excitement, and many people were clearly shocked by Chen Dongqing's move.

Of course, the people in the game were also quite frightened.

"Holy crap, so cool!" Xiangguo was completely dumbfounded: "You really were pretty cool that time."

"It's alright, not bad." Chen Dongqing smiled and said, "Let's push it, there's nothing else worth fighting."

The opposing team showed no intention of defending, so once the minion wave reached the enemy's inhibitor, the rest of the team easily ended the game.

Chen Dongqing's final score was 13-1, and he died in the fountain, where the enemy didn't even touch him. He didn't even lose his godlike streak!

After the game ended, Chen Dongqing looked at the results page, which showed that he had placed in the placement match (1/10), and felt a little smug.

Little C.

Regardless, this is certainly a good start.

"Amazing! Amazing!" Xiangguo exclaimed with satisfaction. "You really carried me! Keep it up!"

Chen Dongqing smiled and continued playing duo queue.

Currently, during the placement matches, the ranks are not yet fixed. Although both players have high hidden MMR, they still often get matched with Platinum and Diamond players as roster members.

In this state, the chances of the two encountering a master are extremely low, which makes it almost impossible for them to lose.

Even though Chen Dongqing was relentlessly targeted by the opposing team in one game, it was to no avail. Xiangguo completely crushed the opposing team's mid and bottom lanes, leading Chen Dongqing to an easy victory.

On the first day, the two players racked up ten wins in their placement matches!

"It has been positioned as the luxurious Platinum I!"

Seeing that he was only at Platinum Level 1, Chen Dongqing was slightly stunned for a moment before quickly realizing what was happening.

In previous seasons, no matter how high your rank was or how many placement matches you won, you could only be placed in Platinum I.

But it's not a big problem, because the hidden points are there, and the points will be greatly increased in the following matches, and there will be crazy jumps in rank.

The two then played three more rounds, and the advantage of having a high hidden score became apparent, with each round adding up to 35 points. After three rounds, Chen Dongqing directly reached Platinum I with a perfect score!

At this point, Xiangguo asked, "Shall we continue?"

Chen Dongqing checked the time. He had started playing after lunch and had played a total of thirteen rounds. It was now past ten o'clock at night.

Chen Dongqing said, "Never mind, I'm a bit tired. Let's play again tomorrow."

"Okay then, call me on QQ tomorrow."

OK.

After saying that, Chen Dongqing left the room.

After finishing League of Legends, Chen Dongqing did not start PUBG.

It's currently the rank-climbing phase, so everything is focused on League of Legends. PUBG ranking can be put on hold for now. Playing two games at the same time can make it hard to switch between them.

Moreover, he only added points yesterday, and now he only has a single-digit number of points. He would have to grind for four or five days to add another point, so there's no rush.

Chen Dongqing finally got up, intending to go out for a bit of exercise before getting some rest.

...

But he was clearly unaware that his Riven combo from his first game was going viral online.

What was originally just an ordinary ranked match gained considerable attention because of Ba Ge's participation.

Many people who enjoy this kind of thing posted it on Tieba and Bilibili, wanting to know what level it is.

Then it spread from person to person, and eventually it even reached forums in South Korea.

With the internet so developed now, this is not surprising.

...

Meanwhile, across the ocean, in South Korea.

A man named Kim Yoon-sung was covering his face and sighing in the live broadcast room.

If we talk about his game ID, perhaps more people will recognize him. His name is Dopa, and he was the top-ranked player on both the Ionia and Korean servers at the end of Season 5.

At the end of Season 5, his duo queue with TheShy dominated the high-elo Ionia server, with no one daring to log in. They then took over the first and second positions in Ionia, which happened just two months ago.

After the S6 ranked season started, Dopa didn't sit idle and immediately entered ranked games, but his placement matches were not ideal.

Six wins and four losses – it was a complete Waterloo.

Although he was still ranked Platinum I, and because he was the number one player in the Chinese server last season, his hidden MMR is still very high, Dopa's spirit has been wounded.

What kind of teammates are these?

This is so hard to bear!

I'm ending the stream and I'm not playing anymore!

Dopa first said goodbye to the viewers in the live stream, then took out his phone and made a call.

The call connected quickly, and he said, "Donggen, how about you come to Ionia and duo queue with me again? I'm so tired from playing today."

"Ah, Yuncheng-ge."

At this time, he was called Jiang Donggen, and in the future he would change his name to Jiang Chenglu. The 16-year-old boy, whose game ID was TheShy, smiled shyly and said, "Playing in Ionia is so boring. I'd rather play on my own server."

"I understand, but I need your help, Dong-geun!"

"Well, I'll think about it. I don't think I'll have time these next few days."

"Oh, never mind then."

The call ended quickly, and TheShy scratched his head, not agreeing.

The Ionia server no longer held any appeal for him; he genuinely didn't want to go there.

He still remembered that two months ago when he was playing ranked in Ionia, the people on that server would instantly kill him every time they were matched against each other, so much so that he couldn't even get a game started after two hours of queuing. It was so boring.

At that moment, TheShy had just finished his placement matches. He took out his phone and casually browsed Inven, the largest esports forum in South Korea.

At that moment, a GIF post was bumped to the top of the forum's homepage.

The post is titled "A Riven play by a Chinese player!"

As a fellow top-tier player, TheShy was immediately drawn to this post and clicked in to take a look.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Chen Dongqing flash by and instantly kill the two of them.

Wow! So fast!

As a top-tier expert in the field, TheShy immediately analyzed the sequence of Chen Dongqing's actions.

R Tiamat flash into WQ?

During the long-range flight of R, adjust your position with Tiamat Flash, then burst damage with WQ, and finally use R to fly over and finish off the enemy.

TheShy mentally simulated it and thought: This is indeed a combo I hadn't thought of.

This combo is fast, but the damage is very low. To kill someone instantly, you need a significant equipment advantage.

A few months ago, when he and Dopa dominated Ionia, he also pulled off a Riven one-shot kill, and a GIF of that play circulated on various forums for a long time.

His move at the time was ERW flash into A into Tiamat into RQ. Although it was also very fast, and the opponent couldn't even use Flash, it was not at all on the same level as the speed in the GIF.

(Tip to avoid being countered: Riven cannot use W flash, but she can use RW flash.)

Are there still Riven masters like this in China?

TheShy suddenly remembered the invitation Dopa had just sent him.

How about we go to Ionia again for some fun?
