I just turned eighteen, and you want me to make a comeback?

Chapter 188-Dark Sword Demon, Blood Reward!
"Yes, that style of play entails a higher risk."

Yuan Shen nodded, he did not deny it.

"But the advantages are also obvious. This style of play is incredibly powerful offensively. After achieving ideal results in the early game, the massive kill economy can even meet the resource requirements of a three-core strategy. All three lanes can carry teamfights and take over the game."

In other words, as long as you can gain an advantage in the early stage with fierce offensive power, the mid-term team battle will be unstoppable.

Hearing this, everyone was obviously interested. Zhou Luxi said, "Tell us about it in detail."

"My thoughts are this..."

After the meeting was summarized and everyone listened to Yuan Shen’s general ideas, they expressed their willingness to try this new style of play.

This is the benefit of having a voice.

If Yuan Shen hadn't stayed with Flash Wolves and gone to another team, he might still be the core carry, but he definitely wouldn't have received the same treatment as he did with Flash Wolves. The entire team was even willing to try a new style of system for his ideas.

Changing style is riskier than replacing core players.

Replacing core players is like changing the engine of a car. If the engine is of high quality and has good adaptability, it can be completely OJBK and can take over seamlessly.

But changing the style is tantamount to building a new car from scratch.

All I can say is that this is the result of a long period of getting along and the trust that has accumulated over time.

If it were any other team, it would be impossible.

However, changes to the team system cannot be accomplished overnight, and the specific details need to be improved step by step.

Yuan Shen's initial idea requires the coaching staff and the entire team to work together to improve, study and adapt.

After deciding on the next changes to the gameplay system in response to the version change, the Flash Wolves team relaxed.

"I feel like RNG will be our biggest enemy in the summer season!"

"Ah."

Sheshe nodded. "I noticed it during the RNG vs. EDG match. I always feel like Uzi's mentality isn't as impatient as before. He used to make some... really unreasonable mistakes in crucial games. But this time, he was very stable from start to finish."

"EDG is not weak either. That mid laner is quite good, MingKai... Damn, I told him some of my counter-camping ideas and understanding of eye positions, but it was a complete failure." Karsa suddenly felt that his previous communication with MingKai was very stupid.

Who in the entire CPL doesn’t know that Mingkai is best at killing the old players!

Without even a thought, he was actually thinking about winning the second consecutive championship and what to do next year.

You're really dreaming and feeling a little bloated.

It’s not certain whether we can win this year’s summer season.

"Is this what... self-destruction? Cultivating a powerful opponent?" Karsa was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

“The intensity of the division has increased, which is a good thing.”

Yuan Shen had a different opinion, saying, "Only a strong competitor can urge us not to relax and keep working hard. If a region always has only one voice, I think it's doomed..."

Karsa thoughtfully

The size of the fish pond and the intensity of natural selection inherently determine what kind of fish can be raised in the pond and the upper limit of the team's strength.

……

Time flies, and Flash Wolves' first game of the summer season is coming soon.

The game hasn't started yet, but the stadium is already full of spectators.

As the two teams with the most fans in the LMS and LPL regions, the battle between EDG and Flash Wolves has undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention.

"Hello everyone, I believe you have all been looking forward to today's match. Without further ado, our players are already in place, and the draft will begin immediately!"

Wawa was as decisive as ever, while Miller beside him had a mysterious expression on his face.

"I heard EDG has a big move today, I don't know how to play it."

After Miller said this, the audience instantly became interested and looked forward to today's game.

When the BP between the two sides ended, the audience was stunned.

“FW Red Side:
Top laner Yuanshen: Darkin Sword Demon - Aatrox
Jungle Karsa: Berserker-Olaf

Mid-lane GODV: Dark Sovereign - Syndra

Bottom Lane Imp: Glory Executioner - Draven

Support SwordArt: Soul Chain Jailer - Thresh
EDG Blue Side:
Top Mouse: Rune Mage - Ryze
Jungle ClearLove: Spider Queen - Elise

Mid Scout: Heimerdinger
Bottom lane Deft: Caitlyn

Support Meiko: Alistar, the Minotaur Chieftain.

As soon as this lineup came out, it caused a lot of heated discussion.

EDG's mid laner, Galio, is certainly a steal, but Flash Wolves' top and bottom heroes...

“The mid, jungle and support picks were pretty normal, but the top laner and ADC let themselves go.

"Little bitch, destroy your confidence!"

"Haha, Flash Wolves are getting cocky and inflated. I hope they don't get destroyed.

"I'm a newbie and I'd like to ask, what hero did Master Yuan choose?

"Please ask!"

"Let's learn about the exclusive hero Darkin Sword Demon in Xinyue 3 (funny)."

There was a lot of discussion in the barrage, some of the stupid netizens followed the trend and asked what the Sword Demon was, but there were really quite a few new players who didn't know what hero Yuan Shen chose.

Yes.

Before the rework, the Sword Demon was an orphan.

Except for when Season 4 first came out, when he was popular in Ranked and competitive matches for a while... Really just for a while, less than a month, before he was immediately chopped down to the ground by the designers. He was always on the bench in competitive matches, and in regular ranked matches, he would only appear once in a hundred games, with a lower appearance rate than even Urgot.

Although Urgot is ugly, he was the top player in the bottom lane in the S5 mid-season tournament.

And what about the Sword Demon?
He has never been the top player in any version. No one loves him, and no one loves him. Until now, he only has one skin.

Yuan Shen suddenly wanted to play Sword Demon, for no other reason than...

It’s really easy for Aatrox to beat Ryze!

"Big head... this thing is not easy to fight."

Char Siu scratched his head. EDG's mid-lane big man really confused him.

"Stop it, coach." Wei Shen sneered.

"Let's put aside the difference in skill between him and me. Thinking Galio is a lane-buster hero clearly doesn't understand the game... Ah, I'm not picking on you, coach."

Char Siu rolled his eyes at him unhappily.

Many casual players find Galio difficult to deal with. They cannot defeat him in a single lane and call for the jungler to come. Sometimes they are killed by the enemy Galio with the help of three turrets.

But in fact, this is just unfamiliarity with unpopular heroes.
Anyone who has a little understanding of the mechanism of Galio knows very well how to deal with this hero.

Galio's damage is extremely dependent on the turret, and the cooldown is extremely long in the early stage.

The first counter method is to play a long hero and directly kill the turret. The big head will have no output, and you will win no matter how you trade blood. Representative heroes include Syndra, Lux, Brand...

The second counter method is that Galio summons turrets, which will inevitably push the lane. Like heroes like Noxus, he has short legs and no displacement, making him particularly easy to catch. Choose heroes with hard control and cooperate with the jungler to easily kill him, leaving no room for the opponent to operate. Representative heroes include Malzac and Frost Maiden...

Moreover, the hero Galio is useless in team battles. He can only fight positional battles. His turrets are also very fragile. Even if you can barely survive a bunch of AOE in team battles, the ADC can still kill a small turret with one shot.
-
The competition version is 6.14.
So, in addition to the two heroes, Aatrox and Draven, who have not appeared on the stage for a long time and make the audience feel fresh, there is another hero worth looking forward to.

That's Ryze. Yes, Ryze's rework is finally complete and available on the tournament servers.

From passives, to qwer, and even the hero's name, the background story has been reworked and given a brand new look.

In the summer seasons of major regions, although the new version of Ryze is still in the development stage, its appearance rate is not low. Whether it is in the middle lane or the top lane, the new version of Ryze can adapt and has the potential to be a hot favorite in the arena.

A Guang picked Ryze in the top lane, while Yuanshen picked Aatrox.

The former is a T1 favorite in this version, while the latter is an underdog that never appears in a million years. This rather arrogant hero choice gives EDG fans hope.

"Yuanshen is very confident, and that confidence is necessary for a strong player. But sometimes it can also be called arrogance or conceit."

Many EDG fans clenched their fists.

"Guang, go and defeat the strong with the weak. Go and challenge this top lane king!"

……

Fortunately, Yuan Shen didn't hear the sound from the audience.

Otherwise, he would be so embarrassed by the immature voice that his concentration would be distracted and he would not be able to concentrate at all.

The lines of troops touch and both sides fight normally.

The Sword Demon Doran's Sword starts out with the talent of War Fervor.

His rune talents and starting equipment are very aggressive, but his online play is very stable.

Yuan Shen learned a W at level one.

The old version of the Sword Demon's W is used to switch between the two modes of the [Magic Sword] in his hand.

The first mode is called [Thirst for Blood], which means that health will be restored every third attack, and the recovery amount will increase by 200% when the health is half.

The second mode is called [Blood Payback], which means that every third attack will cause huge additional damage and lose a certain amount of health.

Generally speaking, it is best for the old version of Sword Demon to learn the E skill to consume the enemy at level 1, but when facing a ranged hero like Ryze, wanting to use the E skill to consume the enemy is a bit too disrespectful to the opponent... Because the flying speed of Sword Demon's E is very average and the distance is far, if the opponent reacts quickly, he can completely dodge it by moving.

Therefore, for ranged combat, learning E at level 1 is of no use.

The Sword Demon was hiding behind the line of soldiers and was hit a few times by Ryze's basic attack, but it didn't hurt him at all. Doran's Blade + [Thirst for Blood] could replenish his double recovery quickly.

On the contrary, if Ryze dares to harass with a basic attack...

Are soldiers vegetarians?
Ryze's basic attack harasses and attracts the hatred of minions, which will cause him to lose health. What's more serious is... he will cause the lane to be pushed, which is not good news for Ryze.

A Guang was very clear about this. He did not rush to use basic attacks to reduce the enemy's health, but instead steadily controlled the line and made up for the enemy.

What's more stable is that he hasn't learned any skills yet, so he has to judge based on what skills the Sword Demon learns.

A person's name, the shadow of a tree.

To deal with a powerful enemy like Yuanshen, let alone choosing a Sword Demon, even Teemo would make him ready for battle.

Although they both have stable lane control and last-hitting, the current Ryze is obviously not as good at clearing lanes as Aatrox.

Soon, the Sword Demon will grab the 2nd place.

A Guang prepared to retreat in time, however, at the moment when the upgrade special effects on the Sword Demon lit up, golden light flashed.

flash!
Dark Leap!
Aatrox begins flying and slams into a target location, damaging and knocking up all nearby enemies.

This skill will consume 10% of the Sword Demon's health, and the basic cooldown at level 1 is up to 16 seconds.

But correspondingly, the damage and control effects are quite powerful.

Level 1 has 100 damage, plus 1 second of knockback.

Ryze was caught off guard and was knocked into the air. The Sword Demon's third attack was carefully timed and instantly switched the sword to the [Blood Payback] mode.

With this blow, the huge amount of additional damage, coupled with a full layer of war enthusiasm, instantly cut off more than one hundred to nearly two hundred health points.

The attack speed provided by the passive [Blood Well] allows the Sword Demon to take the opportunity to cut Ryze again while he is flying in the air, then move forward a small step. When Ryze lands, he cuts him again and continues to move forward a small step.

A Guang quickly flashed to create some distance, but because the Sword Demon had previously performed micro-manipulation on his A move, Ryze's flash was not able to reach a safe distance.

As we all know, in the game League of Legends, the basic movement speed of ranged heroes is not as good as that of melee heroes.

Ryze learned and released W in seconds, and then imprisoned the Master Yi, but was hit by the Master Yi for the third time, triggering [Blood Pay].

He finally escaped with the help of the time confinement, but seeing that Ryze's health bar had disappeared by nearly 70%, A Guang broke out in a cold sweat.

Who is this person?
Grab 2 and flash and hit me?
That's too fierce.

But the problem is, flash for flash, and Ryze has half of his health left...this wave is a huge profit for the Sword Demon.

"Damn it!" Ah Guang thought, gritting his teeth.
"I underestimated the Sword Demon's damage. I should have flashed to avoid his Q! I didn't expect his playstyle to be so aggressive, and his burst damage is so high..."

A Guang was quietly taking drugs under the tower, and for the time being he didn't dare to go forward to last hit.

He was a little hesitant, wondering whether he should go back to the city with his current health.

Being sent home to pay TP at level 1 is too embarrassing, isn't it?
Especially when he saw the Sword Demon constantly attacking the soldiers and pushing the line, and there were a large number of fat soldiers around him, A Guang became more and more reluctant to leave. If he went back this time, he would miss four or five of them.

He only needs two soldiers to reach level 2. With the health restored from the upgrade and the recovery amount from the red potion, he can quickly recover to a safe health level, and he can completely save a teleport.

Thinking of this, A Guang started to call people.

"Come and help me eat the thread."

The factory manager started in the blue side and now he has just reached the top lane
"I... never mind, wait for me."

Mingkai originally wanted to farm the jungle, but when he saw the laning situation in the top lane, he was instantly dumbfounded.

But then I thought about it, the top laner on the opposite side was Yuan Shen, so I felt relieved.

The level 2 spider immediately gave up farming blue and rushed upwards
However, just as he was about to approach the triangular grass next to the upper tower, an axe hit him in the face.

A tough guy with a red buff effect and an axe appeared in front of him.

Olaf...started in the red half of the red team, and we had been waiting for him here for a long time.

No, if Spider hadn't come to help, Olaf would probably have gone over the tower with the Sword Demon to kill Ryze.

But this is not the point.

The point is, a level 2 Spider is right next to a level 2 Olaf, what should he do?
Run!
Depend on!
Mingkai very skillfully left the little spider behind and ran away, but Olaf was determined to kill him and started sprinting to chase him, forcing him to use flash and jump over the wall to escape.

At the same time, the moment Olaf appeared, the Sword Demon directly jumped over the tower.

The moment the soldiers entered the tower, Dark Leap suddenly jumped up and the magic sword switched to [Blood Reward].

The full level of [Blood Well] passive provides a 30% attack speed bonus.

With full stacks of War Fervor, Ryze struck down one blow after another. Before dying, he used his W skill, but he was still one soldier short of level 2, and died with hatred in his heart.

The Sword Demon was also killed by the defense tower.

But it doesn’t matter…

The Lord has resurrected.

Whether it is the reworked Sword Demon or the old version of Sword Demon, the biggest feature is the resurrection feature.

This perfectly complements Aatrox's proud line.

"You think you can kill me?! Ahahahahaha!"

It can be said that the biggest feature of the hero Sword Demon is resurrection!
