Chapter 118: Second Rate Teams, Third Rate Gameplay | Views: 5,984

Wow! Did you see that?

Yes. I did. Im right here

That was so amazing!

It really was. I dont think I couldve done that.

Haha! Definitely not! You suck at this game!

While gasps rang out from the crowd, merging together with the hushed whispers, Ren Rou cheered together with Wei Dong. Lin Feng had averted the gank! His Zyra stopped any hope of the Lee Sin jumping on them! They could get out scot-free. Nice! Lets go! Get out of there! she shouted, eager to support the team in any way she could.

However, Lin Feng didnt go back. Nor did Tang Bingyao. They knew what the other was thinking. There was no need for words. But Lin Feng was in one of those moods, full of energy. He shouted, Tang Tang! Lets do this! Fight!

Mhm. Tang Bingyao nodded while having her Twitch move forward. Her target was the Tristana. Twitch was in range. He cackled as he fired off a venom laced bolt. Then he stepped to the side. It looked harmless, a simple reposition or an attempt to cancel his attack animation. But then a Sonic Wave flew past where he just stood. The Blind Monk was searching for his target and failed. Tang Bingyao had guessed perfectly what the Lee Sins next move would be and dodged it before it even happened! She followed up by pressing down on the W keyVenom Cask! The Twitch hurled a cask of venom that exploded on top of the Tristana and Lee Sin, slowing them and applying a deadly venom.

Oh, damn! That was sexy!

I know right! Shes playing crazy good!

Youre hot High School 13 ad-carry!

Awkward creep Just enjoy that awesome play!

My god! She actually predicted he would throw his Q!

What rank is she? She must be Diamond, right? Like, at least!

Sick skills, girl! Now turn this fight around!

D-dammit! Fine! You want a fight? Ill give you one! North Highs ad-carry had had it up to here! Until here and no further! This matchup should be his! His Tristana was stronger than the Twitch! His Morgana was a really strong Support on the current patch. And that Zyra was completely useless in this meta! There was no excuse. He had to win! He had to! This cocky bitch! How dares she attack me when my Jungler is ganking! Ill show her! He pressed down on the W keyRocket Jump!

The Tristana aimed her cannon at the ground and fired, launching herself into the air and towards the Twitch. She landed on top of him and put a bomb on his headExplosive Charge! Then she fired off an auto attack. The Morgana and Lee Sin were trying to catch up from behind, but the minions in the lane were blocking a direct path.

Behind North Highs ad-carry, Zeng Rui from Shanghai High School shook his head. Fool. This was a mistake only the worst players made. The Devshards. Beginners who had no clue what was going on and had zero feeling for the game. It took a special kind of stupid to jump in when you didnt know where the opponents Jungler was, even more so when you were the ad-carry. Squishy and easy to kill.

Tang Bingyao didnt run. She let the Tristana jump on her and just kept attacking. This time, she was the bait. Because coming down from the river, shouting in her ears and pinging on bot lane, was none other than Ouyang with his Jarvan IV! Coming in hot! Time to save the princess! he shouted. Then he flashed forward, walking until he was almost on top of the Tristana, and then executed his flag-toss combo! He was right on top the Tristana. There was nowhere for her to escape to. He had his Jarvan IV dash through her and knocked her up into the air! He followed up with an auto attack before calling upon the ancient kings of Demacia to shield him from harm and slow the TristanaGolden Aegis!

F-fucking. Dammit. Argh. Fuck. Shit. North Highs ad-carry was rapid firing insults at himself. He shouldve never jumped in like that. Now he knew! How should I know that Jarvan was right there! He smashed down on his keyboard, trying to Flash away, while he watched his Tristanas health drop lower and lower. Black shield! Morg, give me a black shield! Come on! Hurry up already!

The Morgana caught up. She cast the Black Shield on Tristana, protecting her from all disabling effects with a barrier of starlight. She followed up with a Dark Binding. The dark magic flew through the air, straight for the Jarvan IV. If she could stop him, her ad-carry would still have a chance to survive!

Lin Feng paid close attention to the Morgana. He was well aware of how the Tristana could escape. He was going to counter that. Zyra could plant seeds and she could also have them grow into monstrous plants! Lin Feng had planted a couple of these seeds, preparing for this very moment. Morganas Dark Binding flew through the air. He pressed down on his Q keyDeadly Spines! Thick vines spread through the ground and exploded into spines, feeding one of the seeds. The seed grew into a Thorn Spitter plant and rose up right in the path of the Dark Binding. It ate the attack of dark magic and died. But it also blocked the attack from connecting with Ouyangs Jarvan IV!

How in the world

Wow

Was that

Yeah, it was Jesus, that guy is good.

The crowd couldnt believe what they were seeing. This play was out of this world! Beyond that, even Zeng Rui was caught off guard! This Zyra went from one high skill play into the next as if it were nothing! Wow. Those reflexes and reaction speed are something to watch out for.

Ouyang and Tang Bingyao could chase after North Highs ad-carry without a worry in the world. The Tristana was almost dead, the Morgana had no damage and no crowd control skills left, and itd be suicidal for the Lee Sin to jump in. This was the very definition of an easy kill. They attacked the Tristana a few more times until Tang Bingyao pressed down on her E keyContaminate! Twitch blasted the poisoned Tristana with his vile diseases!

First blood!

Ouyang could hear his teammates cheering behind him. The WOOT WOOT! from Liu Yue was especially resounding. Liu Yue approved of his play! I-im doing it! Im doing it! He started laughing. There was nothing to be afraid of. Nothing to fear. This game was in the bag. Hed carry it with his Jarvan IV! Oh yeah! Bro, my Jarvan is fucking fantastic! Did you see that gank? Damn, I was so awesome there!

Zeng Rui snorted. Who is this idiot? He didnt care one bit for Ouyangs performance. It was mediocre at best. And the only reason it looked mediocre and not straight terrible was because that Tristana was just as bad as the Jarvan IV. Two terrible players having a little fun. They were having fun, but there wasnt anything to see for the crowd. Why did that Tristana even Rocket Jump in? How was it not obvious that the Jarvan IV was coming? The Twitch stayed to fight! That was such a dead giveaway There were so many problems and issues with the Tristana and Jarvan IVs plays that he didnt know how to end complaining about them. Until he shifted his attention towards High School 13s ad-carry. Tang Bingyao. She stayed calm and played well. Impressive.

However, the most impressive player was still Lin Feng. Zeng Rui looked at Lin Feng again. The cocky dumbass Lin Fengs mechanics on Zyra were really good. Really good. It wasnt just one time either. In these first four minutes of the game, he played perfectly. Zeng Rui couldnt find anything to complain about, at least gameplay wise. Is he really that good? Was it luck? But hes done it before on Riven and Zed. There is no such thing as coincidence

The game started great for High School 13. But the few minutes after the first blood went all North Highs way. The first big moment came at 6 minutes. The Twisted Fate had reached Level 6 and learned his ultimateDestiny! He predicted the fortunes of his foes, revealing them and enabling the use of Gate. A portal he could use to travel to any target location in 1.5 seconds. Chen Zes fortune ended first. The Twisted Fate teleported to the top lane and helped his Darius pick up a kill on the Rumble.

A minute later, at 7 minutes, the Twisted Fate returned to mid lane. Ouyang had been waiting in a brush for this. He wanted to help his Midlaner get a kill. Maybe even help Yang Fan win the lane. He jumped on the Twisted Fate with his flag-toss combo! The Twisted Fate flashed away, back to tower safety. His health had dropped low. Ziggs had his Mega Inferno Bomb and Jarvan IV had Cataclysm. Ouyang made the call. He towerdove the Twisted Fate. His Jarvan IV heroically leapt at the target and smashed the Twisted Fate down into the ground so hard that the surrounding area terraformed into an arena. Together with Ziggs long range attacks, the Twisted Fate died. But the Jarvan IV was also locked up in his own arena. Underneath North Highs outer tower. He forgot to cancel his ultimate skill in time and died to a last energy shot from the outer tower.

Yang Fan breathed out, deep and hard. Come on! Ouyang! You shouldve backed away, dude. You know you can cancel your ult, right?

There was no need for Yang Fan to yell at Ouyang. Ouyang was more than a little upset with himself already. Still, he blurted out, I was backing away, alright? Its just that minion that was in the way. And there was a slight delay in canceling my ult. This stupid game! It bugged! Shit!

Standing behind the players from North High, Zeng Rui couldnt hide his contempt. The gamescore was two kills for two kills. Four idiotic deaths that couldve all been evaded. Easily. If he wouldve played, none of this wouldve happened. He wouldve made sure of that! Second rate teams showing off their third rate gameplay All his interest for High School 13 disappeared. Their bot lane was good, he had to admit. But the rest of their team was dogshit. Terrible. The worst players hed ever seen play the game. Two strong players wasnt enough at the Shanghai 16 School Tournament. Not to contest for the title, at least. High School 13 wouldnt be a title contender. He wouldnt have to prepare for them. It wasnt worth his time.

Finally, Zeng Rui mumbled. Though hed already decided High School 13 didnt amount to much, he still stuck around to watch the game. Mostly because he just felt this urge to watch the Support Zyra die. Something about the excited shouts of that Support player had rubbed him the wrong way. At 8 minutes, something big was brewing in bot lane. Lin Feng and Tang Bingyao would have to do some truly spectacular to walk out of this one alive!
