LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 219 Have you seen the incense burner monster?

The update changes in version 7.15 are not major.

First, the base damage and percentage health damage of Cho'Gath's E skill have been reduced, which is a slight adjustment compared to the previous version's big boost.

Then the cooldown of Ekko's E skill is reduced at low levels to ensure greater combat effectiveness in the early and middle stages and to effectively fight against mages.

Kayn's ultimate bonus attack damage ratio increased.

The reduction in EZQ skill cooldown, the increase in Tsar's sand soldier damage in the late game, and the increase in the Captain's passive damage are not changes related to the Censer's takeoff.

Lin Ruo continued to scroll down patiently and soon saw the two most critical points.

One is that the Spider Queen's basic attack power is reduced, weakening her early jungle and fighting abilities.

The second is that the policewoman's growth attack speed is reduced.

These two changes had a huge impact on the early laning phase.

At this point, Lin Ruo can roughly estimate the reason why the censer took off in version 7.15.

First of all, starting from the beginning of S7 season, the birth of Redemption changed the equipment pattern of the bottom lane, becoming the first must-have item for supports in the early stage, which directly buried all hopes of the appearance of the Censer.

At the same time, the spring season was still in the version of damage-type supports. It was undoubtedly impossible to sacrifice supports by buying censers to protect the weak ADC.

All this did not change significantly and directly until the start of the summer season.

It also starts with the weakening of redemption.

Then the weakness that has remained unchanged for thousands of years was also weakened. When applied to the target, it will not reduce the attack speed, resulting in a significant decrease in the restrictive effect on AD.

As a result, the possibility of many supports carrying fixed summoner skills such as healing and barrier has increased by more than one level.

This undoubtedly coincides with the passive nature of the incense burner.

Most of the equipment after Redemption is based on Bird Shield, but in the last version, the Bird Shield was changed to be linked to the upper limit of health.

This inevitably requires the auxiliary's first big item idea to undergo a new change.

In addition, the modification of the yellow wage equipment to enhance economic acquisition is of utmost importance, which directly leads to the auxiliary having more economy than other wage equipment, thus providing the basis for purchasing expensive censers.

Afterwards, strong early-game laning heroes like Ashe, Lucian, and Caitlyn were weakened several times, which indirectly promoted development-oriented heroes like Kog'Maw and Twitch, who showed weakness in the early stages, to become the darlings of the version.

In addition, with Lee Sin, Graves, Mantis, and Warwick all being nerfed, as well as the Spider that arrived in version 7.15, the threat level faced by ADC in the early and mid-game in the jungle has been greatly reduced.

By ensuring stable development in the early stage, the core AD with stronger Caryy ability in the later stage will naturally become the focus of attention on the field.

It is not surprising that pure AD protection equipment such as the censer was later released.

The update speed of the Korean server is about a week faster than that of the Chinese server, and version 7.15 has been officially launched today at the latest.

Lin Ruo turned on the computer and started the live broadcast.

I thought about logging into the Korean server which I hadn’t seen for a long time and started to check the recent appearance rates of various positions.

[Oh my god, is Lin Gou starting to gain points? I must be seeing things.]

[You read that right, he did log in to the Korean server, but he just didn't click on the ranking.]

【Maybe he took the wrong medicine. 】

[It's possible, or it could be that I'm too tired from playing other games, so I want to play League to relax.]

Someone photographed him this morning attending a Go ranking tournament. Perhaps he was beaten to tears by a child and felt the pressure was too much, so he came back to play the league to relax.

It has been nearly four months since Lin Ruo logged in in April. Having never logged into the Korean server before, he is now very unfamiliar with the system. It took him a while to find the data such as the appearance rate of each position.

It is an obvious fact that the appearance rate of Janna and Lulu has begun to increase, and I believe it will not be long before they will replace hard supports such as Thresh.

Lin Ruo still remembers that able only started to show his reputation in the Korean server with his excellent operation in early August, especially with his advanced understanding of the censer version, which made him kill everyone and won the title of A-walking monster.

His reputation outside the arena even elevated him to the same level as JK and iboy, one of the three new-generation ADCs. However, when comparing their results later, it was clear that Zou A, who had no major championships and had never entered the World Championship, was just a name in vain.

However, the brilliance of the Incense Burner version during its popularity is well known to everyone, and it can be said that it has driven the innovation of the entire Korean server trend.

The incense burner is very powerful. Lin Ruo thought about it and since he had never tried it before, he decided to give it a try to test its strength.

Everyone knows that the Censer version has led to a surge in the AD position, but in hindsight, simply amplifying the late-game effect is actually more of a deformed version that tends to smooth out the AD gap.

Two censer monsters are facing each other in the lane, and no ignite is brought. Whether the bottom lane will explode or not depends on how fast the jungler comes.

For the top bottom lane combination that specializes in laning to establish an advantage in the early stage, it is almost equivalent to having its edges smoothed out.

"Isn't this just weakening the bottom lane for Tian Ye and me?" Lin Ruo muttered to himself, although he knew that Riot certainly didn't do it on purpose.

After all, the incense burner version was not created overnight, and it will appear with or without it.

Judging from the comprehensive data of this year's spring and summer seasons, MSI and Intercontinental Championship, the combination of him and Tian Ye has always been at the top of the list in terms of single kill rate in the first 15 minutes in the bottom lane.

Although he couldn't gain a big advantage in the bottom lane in the early stage, Lin Ruo thought he could stand out in the later stage.

But in that case, the risks will inevitably increase.

Moreover, Lin Ruo doesn't like to mix with all kinds of bottom laners, even those with different strengths.

I'm stronger than you, why should I mess around?
Rather than just following the crowd, Lin Ruo clearly wanted to research a way to counter the Censer meta. Before experimenting, he had to find a supporter who would listen to him, and a King account...

His current rank has dropped to Diamond. Lin Ruo chose to open the barrage question and answer session: "Is there a true king in the barrage king? A master account is also fine, I will play casually."

[I have a bronze account, I'll give it to you for free. ]

[You think too highly of us, the fun people. Sorry, we don't even have a number.]

[I don't play the league anymore, I just watch it.]

[Everyone is a cloud viewer, right? I am the same. 】

Although the netizens in the barrage looked nonchalant, once the words came out, under the influence of the crowd, Lin Ruo quickly gathered a master account with a not-too-high score. Then he turned his head and said, "Lolita, come here, brother will help you to rank up."

Hearing this, Ai Loli, who was on a losing streak, was sitting on her chair, worrying about getting deducted money. The next second, she was extremely surprised: "Brother Lin, don't you not play ranked games?"

"Can't I just do it on a whim?"

"Okay, okay." Ai Loli scratched her ears, confirmed that she was not hallucinating, interrupted the ongoing queue, and entered the room at Lin Ruo's invitation.

"Choose support, don't play jungle." Lin Ruo drank a sip of AD calcium milk and continued.

Ai Loli had no complaints. As long as Lin Ruo could rank up, he would choose a support and go jungle.

"Brother Lin, don't you like playing Ashe? Then I'll play the nurse. I'll heal you from behind and definitely won't hold you back."

Lin Ruo gave him a look of disdain and said, "Get lost. If you want to show off, play with it. If you don't, play with the wind."

"That's fine." There was no need to do anything about these two, and Ai Loli accepted it with peace of mind.

Soon, the queue completed and entered the room.

When it came to the selection stage, Lin Ruo, who was in the front row, locked on the big mouth, and Ai Loli, who was stuck on the fourth floor, also successfully got Lulu.

In the current situation where hard supports are rampant, when the opponent saw Lulu appear in the opposite lane, he carefully considered and then showed his Jyra, cooperating with Jhin to push the line and suppress.

"Bring the treatment, nothing else."

After the character selection phase ended, Lin Ruo immediately instructed Ai Loli to change skills and adjust talents.

Then he changed his summoner skill from healing to purification.

The only thing AD needs to do under the influence of the Censer version is positioning.

Of course, if there is enough milk in the later stage, you can even save the trouble of moving.

Just spray it and it's done.

Entering the game, the two were on the red side. Lin Ruo hurriedly said, "Buy the yellow salary equipment and go out. The first item is the incense burner."

"Wait a minute." Ai Loli, who bought the yellow salary outfit, finally had a question.

"What the hell is a 2300 Censer as the first item? If I don't buy the Eyestone item, I won't be able to provide vision in the early game. Relying on True Ward and Trinket Ward alone is obviously not enough. And if we get caught..."

"I don't blame you for being caught." Lin Ruo answered with emphasis.

Despite this, Ai Loli still felt a faint worry in her heart, and asked, "Brother Lin, do you know any junglers?"

Lin Ruo shook his head: "How would I know who the jungler is?"

"Then the question is, if I don't have a ward behind me to help the jungler with vision, what should I do if he scolds me?" Ai Loli said cautiously.

"It's okay. You can't understand him typing in Korean."

"That's right." Ai Loli felt much more relieved.

"But he can ping you continuously, and most people in the Korean server should know a few simple pinyin curses." Lin Ruo did not forget to remind him.

[Why do I feel like Lin Gou is playing the role of a loli. ]

[You read that right. Who would buy a Censer without any money? Do they think that the support can buy a lot of true wards because they have a lot of money?]

[This time, I won without buying the Eyestone item first.]

[He's here to cheat on food and drinks again. Can't you see that Lin Gou is ready to enjoy the top-level exclusive C? This one looks like he's maxed out.]

[But the opponent's mid laner is Faker, and the top laner is Huni. ]

Ai Loli was speechless. It seemed that he was asking me to play duo with him just to cause trouble.

There is only one question in his mind now, can he win this game?
The opposing jungler Nidalee plus Jhin and Zyra pushing the line, everyone knows that this is a combination that can go down infinitely.

"Don't worry, we're guaranteed to win." Lin Ruo spoke first.

Ai Loli was completely relieved when she heard this.

What kind of person is Brother Lin? He will lead you if he says he will, and he will never lie to you.

But this did not affect Ai Loli's level 3 performance as she gave away her first kill by rushing into the bushes.

"I said I'm guaranteed to win, but if you keep giving it away like this, it's hard to say whether you'll win or not."

Lin Ruo was stunned for a moment, looking at Ai Loli's ridiculous death, and gave a warning in a light tone.

If the support's development lags behind and the Censer cannot be produced until 20 minutes in, then it is actually okay not to play the game.
