“Who do you think you are, you think you’re so good after just playing some competitions in the cyber cafe league? Yang Ying, what kind of person have you recruited!” Xiao Jia said angrily.
Already having lost the first match, he was extremely unsatisfied, not to mention he had never imagined that he would be defied by a freshman. Xiao Jia was so tempted to kick him out of the club right now!
“Okay, stop it. Don’t you know you shouldn’t fight among each other?” Mr Fang interjected.
“Yeah, let’s just win this thing first and we can talk later. The rest can be settled after we go back.” Yang Ying said.
“Luocheng, you said you could win this.” Meiqi said, her eyes shining brightly.
The beauty looked calmer than the others, and it seemed she wasn’t just all looks.
“As long as the team doesn’t make any big mistakes, we won’t lose.” Luocheng said confidently.
I wanted to be low-key, but you guys have forced me to stand up and prove myself!
“What the f*ck do you mean by that!” Xiao Jia flared up, wasn’t this freshman obviously talking about him!
Since he didn’t hold back, Luocheng himself didn’t bother being courteous with him. He had already shown so much dissatisfaction and contempt toward Luocheng, and all this time, Luocheng had been the bigger man and ignored it. However, he had gone too far this time!
“Okay, okay. Xiao Jia, those high ranking players all have their egos. Since our little junior has already said that he can win, then let him try. Jian Feng and Qin Ting’s strength don’t differ much, even if Qin Ting plays, the outcome won’t be much different.” Meiqi said, smiling.
Being advised by a gentle beauty like her, your anger was bound to evaporate. Xiao Jia bit back his dissatisfaction and said, “Fine. Let him play, I want to see what kind of ability this kid has. Since I have never paired with him at Bot before, if he plays Support, I won’t play ADC.”
“No problem, you can Jungle. I intended to let you Jungle so you can set the pace anyway.” Yang Ying said.
Xiao Jia was competent in a lot of positions. Jungle, Support, ADC, Mid, whichever role you gave him, he could excel. Therefore, any player change wouldn’t affect this team much.
“Luocheng, which Supports do you play?” The vice president who usually didn’t talk much, asked.
Jinbei was their main ADC, and Jungle second. During the last match, his Jungle pacing had been too slow, allowing Lee Sin to be in control.
He was a steady player and much more suited to play ADC instead.
“More toward offensive Support.” Luocheng replied.
Not Sona, Soraka, Lulu, or Janna. Luocheng wouldn’t use any of those characters and he always controlled the bot lane pace, no matter if he was playing Support or ADC.
“Their ADC is strong in countering, don’t be too aggressive.” Jinbei said.
“Okay.” Luocheng replied, nodding his head.
***
After both sides had finished their strategy meeting, they returned to the match and started the second match.
“Little junior, good luck. If you win, I promise to go on a date with you and maybe even a movie.” Meiqi exclaimed, and the whole club was captivated by her enchanting voice.
Yang Ying, Jinbei, Xiao Jia and even Lecturer Fang were internally screaming.
Could you not be so bold, didn’t you see that the Fudan University’s students who were present were all guys. And why did only Luocheng get this kind of special treatment!
Luocheng awkwardly smiled at his beautiful senior, wouldn’t the others hate him more for this?
Needless to say, with Meiqi making such a declaration, Fudan University’s team would also tunnel vision him more at bot, clearly not wanting him to get such a benefit!
“Don’t be too aggressive, wait for my support.” Xiao Jia said, looking at Luocheng calmly.
“We’ll see how it goes.” Luocheng had his own playstyle and he couldn’t simply just wait for the Jungler.
“You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?” Xiao Jia said.
“Not really, and it’s not like we’ve never paired up at Bot before.” Luocheng said lightly.
Xiao Jia was taken aback, not understanding what he meant. He didn’t know that when Luocheng had been fighting for the last four wins, he had matched with him during one of the matches.
Luocheng had recognized him as he was in the club, how could he not know Xiao Jia’s ID. Luocheng had been using another account so it was only natural that Xiao Jia didn’t know it was him.
***
Going into picks, Xiao Jia managed to grab Lee Sin. This time, he needed to set the pace for the whole game and carry his team!
Their opponent picked Jarvan. Jarvan was an all rounder, he had damage, repositioning skills, CC and was the best choice for them. After Jungler, it was Top pick. Renekton was banned and the Shanghai University team picked Zac.
The Secret Weapon—Zac had been popular recently, and he was the best champion for Top and Jungler. It was a pity that he had been nerfed and they could foresee that he would eventually be phased out.
Fudan University picked Diana, and their opponents picked Fizz. Bot picks for their opponents were the classic pick of Ezreal and Blitzcrank, whilst Jinbei picked Caitlyn and the last pick would be their Support.
“Pick Thresh since he won’t have to fear Blitzcrank’s hook.” Jinbei said.
Luocheng glanced at their opponent’s line up again and felt that using Thresh wouldn’t be of much value in this game.
Thinking further on it, he decided that he should focus on countering the bottom lane.
Luocheng kept switching between Thresh, Alistair, and Taric. At the last moment, he suddenly chose a champion that made everyone’s eyes widen—Morgana!
“F*ck!” Xiao Jia couldn’t hold back his anger.
We asked you to pick Leona or Thresh but you go and f*cking pick Morgana instead!
“Hurry up and change it…” before Xiao Jia could finish his sentence, Luocheng had already locked in the champion.
“Argh…” Xiao Jia wanted to puke blood. This damn kid was pushing his luck, he had to be!
“Oh, Morgana is fine too, she can counter Blitzcrank.” Yang Ying said, trying to diffuse the situation.
On the inside, he was wondering why Luocheng was being so troublesome and strange. Then he thought about it, Luocheng had used Lux before this, and he had become a terrifying AP carry. Maybe with Morgana this time, he would be able to grab it in the bag as well?
Thinking like that, Yang Ying hurriedly assured his teammates.
“Hehe, this pick is very interesting.” Huang Lin said, smiling toward Yang Ying.
***
Every one had locked in, and although there were some dissatisfactions among those in Fudan University’s team, they could only continue grudgingly.
Jinbei who was paired up with Luocheng didn’t say anything. Morgana could easily counter Blitzcrank, as long as her Black Shield came up in time, Jinbei didn’t need to worry about the hook.
Before the first wave had even spawned, the Support—Luocheng had already run to the top lane and planted a ward in the brush.
“You…what are you doing so far out!” Xiao Jia exclaimed angrily.
“Xiao Jia, control yourself.” Jinbei said,
“He’s checking to see if they switch lanes.” Their Top—Zhang Wenbin said.
Xiao Jia quieted down after listening to their explanation. That’s right, if their Top and Bot switched lanes, then the Morgana pick wouldn’t be of much value.
Luocheng’s foresight made the others feel more trust in his pick of Morgana, as none of them had actually considered the possibility of their opponent switching lanes. He had actually taken it into account and also thought of a countermeasure, it was a good call.
Sure enough, their opponents had switched lanes. His deep ward managed to catch sight of their ADC and Support at the top lane.
“We’re going up top.” Luocheng said to Jinbei.
If they wanted to change lanes, we will also change lanes!
***
At the top lane, Blitzcrank and Ezreal were laughing to themselves, thinking that they would surprise their opponents with the switch. However, Morgana and Caitlyn’s appearance at the top lane startled them instead.
F*ck, how did these noobs know they had switched lanes?
Countering from the get go, this made the Fudan University students laugh in delight.
“Your Support’s awareness is good.” Huang Lin said, smiling at Yang Ying as he spoke.
Yang Ying also laughed lightly.
Awareness?
Luocheng’s Support was crazy, Yang Ying hadn’t forgotten that this guy had managed to get twenty stacks on Mejai’s Soulstealer and had almost made an epic comeback in that match!
If you underestimated him, you’d might as well just wait to be eaten!
To be honest, Yang Ying was looking forward to see if Luocheng would build a Mejai’s on Morgana!
If they won with that build, that would be f*cking awesome!
***
Buzz!
A current ran through Blitzcrank and his powerful arm suddenly shot out from the brush. His target was not Caitlyn who was hiding behind the creep line, but Morgana, who was standing in front of him.
Black Shield!
The moment they saw Blitzcrank’s arm shoot out, everyone shouted that in their hearts at Luocheng.
However, Luocheng didn’t bother to use the shield, instead neatly side-stepping the hook confidently, throwing out a Q in retaliation. Both parties had used their Q skill and Luocheng had avoided it without having to use his shield. However, Blitzcrank pulled back after that miss and had walked right into Morgana’s Dark Binding.
Auto attack again and again!
Chase him and continue to auto attack!
Morgana was in a frenzy, dashing through the creeps to chase after Blitzcrank. Without his hook, Blitzcrank could only retreat, his health dropping until there was only one third left.
Ezreal couldn’t continue watching, this Support, or rather AP Support, coming forward to attack the opponent brazenly was not normal!
Ezreal chose this moment to throw a combo at Morgana and Luocheng used Black Shield, blocking Ezreal’s E—Mystic Shot, retreating to the back of the wave immediately.
Caitlyn took advantage of the distance and poked him. Luocheng lost about one third of his health, but their opponents had lost much more than him!
***
“Damn, this Morgana is so aggressive!”
“Yeah, get the Jungler to come. Since they’re aggressive and pushing so hard, they will definitely die.” The one playing Blitzcrank said.
