LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 355 Don't use red heat, it's bad for your health.
As everyone knows, a pig that can't use the Explosion Fruit to take off and look at the sky isn't a good pig.

Standing beside the exploding fruit, Lin Ruo finished warming up and was ready to go. He was waiting for the red buff's health to drop to a critical point where he could contest it.

Although Olaf deliberately pulled the Red Monster out of the pit, it had little impact. The Blast Fruit's bouncing distance was enough for him to land in any corner of the pit without any deviation.

Although he didn't have Flash at the moment, the enemy mid and jungle players all had Flash. Although his ultimate could be instantly destroyed by Olaf's Ragnarok.

All of these factors combined made it feel like going in was like throwing your life away.

Even so, the cunning and shrewd Lin Ruo still maintained a completely calm demeanor.

This is the difference between an experienced jungler and a novice jungler. The latter is fearless and dares to charge in, but always makes various untimely invasions that squander their advantages.

So what's the difference between the former and the latter?

Like Lin Ruo, although it may seem like an untimely intrusion, he actually believes he can circumvent it using various methods.

There's no way around it; strength is capital.

"Is Lin Ruo really going to invade? How dare she try to steal it? She's got some nerve."

Rita, watching from the commentary booth, felt that the words were still a bit too restrained and subtle.

This is practically suicidal! Anyone who didn't know better would think he was cosplaying Zhao Zilong.

[Did the enemy team give them money? Is Lin Gou about to feed? Can't they just steal it?]

Dude, look at your cooldown skills! You jumped in without even using Flash? You're bound to die, aren't you?

I think that given Lin Gengxin's personality, he's genuinely capable of getting things done if someone pays him.

[Lin Gou was just teasing you guys, you wouldn't actually believe him, would you? Going down there would be certain death.]

[Yes, yes, Lin Gengxin is probably just standing there admiring the view. If he goes in, he'll be roasted. Let's see if he dares to go in.]

The viewers in the LPL official live stream chat also expressed complete disbelief.

What's the difference between daring to go in and stealing and someone in a Bronze-level game intentionally feeding? Dude, the hero you're playing is a pig, not you.

Despite what they said, to their surprise, the next second Lin Ruo bravely stepped on the exploding fruit and soared into the red pit.

He carefully observed the red monster's health, and when it dropped to nearly 1000 health, he leaped into the pit, openly engaging in a grappling match in preparation for a fight.

Don't ask him why he didn't wait for the red monster's health to drop below 600 before entering the pit to fight it directly, because there's no way he could steal it with that method.

If the level difference isn't significant, Olaf's E followed by Smite actually has a higher and faster kill potential than all his abilities combined.

Leaving at the last second won't scare anyone, because the opponent has already calculated the health bar and is absolutely confident of winning. So only leaving early can truly scare people.

Why can it scare people?

Because he's Sejuani, going out early allows him to stack Frostbite passive stacks with his skills. Once he has four stacks, the freeze effect will make his basic attack followed by Smite much more lethal than Olaf's execute.

It's clear that he has the advantage from the start.

With a thud, the huge creature appeared, and even the experienced Vietnamese thief was genuinely startled.

The pig actually came out, seemingly not taking him seriously at all.

Guoguo, who was about to turn around and leave, was forced to turn back to help. He didn't expect Lin Ruo to actually dare to jump into the red monster pit to try to steal the jungle monster.

Regardless of whether they're intentionally feeding kills, their ultimate focus now is securing the red buff.

Only by determining who belongs to Red can the subsequent series of events unfold.

Lin Ruo controlled Sejuani to swing her flail first upon landing, reducing the red monster's health and applying the Frost passive. At the same time, she launched a basic attack, followed by Olaf's basic attack.

The red buff's health dropped below 700.

Lin Ruo only needs to use A once to fully stack the four layers of Frost passive.

There's no doubt that Red Monster will be taken down by his heavy attack followed by a penalty.

SoFM realized that if Sejuani, with her higher kill threshold, could land stacks of crowd control, the chances of him getting a second red buff were extremely slim.

At this critical juncture, the only option is to strike first.

You must reduce the red monster's health to a level where you can use Smite when Sejuani applies the Freeze effect; only then will you have a chance to take the buff.

Without a word, the Vietnamese man raised his axe and swung it down, followed by the Tsar's casual stab.

A red monster whose health drops below 600 is at a level where both sides can apply a penalty.

SoFM activated the Punishment skill, and Lin Ruo used it at the same time.

Both sides were locked in a race of pure speed, and Lin Ruo's hands did not tremble at all.

This is the result of his years of playing League of Legends, hone his top-notch hand speed.

If that's not enough, then sorry, he plays even more shooting games that test hand speed.

Everything I'm doing is just to show one thing: I can definitely press my D skill faster than you can, that's what professionalism is all about.

A white smite landed, and when 100 gold coins suddenly appeared on Sejuani's body, the entire audience knew who had taken down the red monster.

I remember being shocked: "Wow, Lin Ruo actually managed to snatch it!"

Kind of outrageous.

Well, what he said was outrageous wasn't just this one red buff, but that Olaf had already had two red buffs stolen by Sejuani in the first 8 minutes of the game.

You heard right, Olaf suffered a lot of grievances under Sejuani's kneading.

If this happened to me, I don't even know how high the temperature would be.

But it doesn't matter, he can now imagine the temperature of SoFM.

"***"

A beautiful line from a traditional Chinese poem rang out in Snake's voice chat. When Guoguo turned his head again, the jungler's face was already slightly red.

SoFM was furious. His Olaf hadn't managed to get a single red buff in 8 minutes, and had even fed it all to the pigs.

Even the Leshan Giant Buddha couldn't tolerate this.

Today it's either Sejuani or Sejuani dies. The axe hits and then Smite slows her down. The Vietnamese guy, controlling Olaf, just goes for a brutal hack-and-slash.

However, thanks to her thick skin, Sejuani withstood Olaf's initial attack.

Lin Ruo remained calm, walked to the wall and used her Q skill to pass through the wall to the F6 area below, where she endured the attack from Azir, who was already outside the wall, while simultaneously creating distance between herself and Olaf.

Scout's Ryze has arrived at the jungle entrance to provide support.

A golden light appeared.

Olaf dodged down through the wall and swung his axe, slowing Lin Ruo down again, fearing that Lin Ruo's enhanced SoFM would prematurely activate Ragnarok and enter red-temperature form to launch a reckless charge.

"Flash followed, Olaf used his ultimate, that was a bit too hasty." The commentator, Remember, paused for a moment before expressing complete understanding.

Yeah, if you're not in a hurry, you're not a real man.

Any jungler would be anxious if their red buff was stolen twice, let alone Olaf being robbed of his red buff by a pig.

However, this hasty action clearly did little to alleviate Olaf's current predicament. Although he managed to take down half of Sejuani's health in a few hits, Olaf's health seemed to drop even faster after taking a full combo from Ryze who arrived at the scene.

The reason is simple: Sejuani has more tankiness and health, and Ryze's current damage is definitely higher than Azir's.

While retreating, Lin Ruo turned around and swung her flail to slow down and counterattack. She then used her ultimate skill diagonally to control the Tsar, who was attacking from the flank, effectively slowing down the drop in his health.

However, Olaf doesn't have a control skill that can stop Ryze from attacking.

Therefore, his health will inevitably drop faster than anyone else's.

SoFM, who had regained some clarity after the commotion, was now helpless. Turning back would not only prevent him from escaping, but would also condemn him to a place of shame for the rest of his life.

All he could do was charge forward and continue his life-or-death struggle with Pig Girl.

As a true early-to-mid-game hero, Olaf's damage is indeed quite considerable. Even when facing Sejuani, he can deal tons of damage and single-handedly withstand the chase, bringing her health down to the red line.

The Vietnamese seemed to see a glimmer of hope, but he soon realized it was nothing at all.

Because while Sejuani's health was at the red line, his health... damn, it's gone.

Lin Ruo manipulated Sejuani to turn around and swiftly kick Olaf, who was biting him like a dog, to death.

It was this kill that allowed him to quickly reach level seven, increase his health, and thus negate the Tsar's attack.

Lin Ruo was still low on health, but he was still alive; that's the charm of having invincible health.

Guoguo, impatient, used his Sand Soldier E skill to drift closer and get to Sejuani, intending to finish her off as a way to mitigate his losses.

His hard stab was enough to secure the kill.

only…

The next second, Sejuani's health was restored. It wasn't an obvious turn around, but rather Shen's ultimate, which had just reached level six, followed, and the purple shield that was attached to Sejuani's remaining health covered her.

In short, to Guoguo's astonishment, Lin Ruo narrowly escaped disaster once again.

Shen used his E skill to taunt the still-chasing Azir, but with a cracking sound of Purify, Guoguo used his skill to remove the taunt and flashed forward.

Once again, he's on the same level as Pig Girl.

This time, there won't be any random increase in health, nor will there be any shield to protect health. Guoguo is confident that he can get this kill, even if he will most likely die later.

Lin Ruo affirmed his opinion; one cannot only affirm half of it.

The Tsarina will indeed die, but whether he will actually die is another matter.

why?

Because of an apology, his Flash cooldown was refreshed in that instant.

Flash followed by Q skill to dash forward, Lin Ruo's agile Sejuani instantly created a large distance between herself and the approaching Azir.

The distance was so great that neither the Tsar could reach it, nor could the Sand Soldiers possibly poke it.

In short, they ran away!

Guoguo, standing behind and smelling the exhaust fumes, could only stand there dumbfounded, looking completely bewildered.

He was sorry, he had never seen such a nimble pig before, but now he had.

"Lin Ruo ran away? My God, how could she have escaped?" Ji De shook his head in disbelief.

The scene erupted in uproar, followed by thunderous cheers.

Thanks to Lin Ruo's brilliant escape, EDG achieved a perfect 2-for-0 exchange.

But there is an even greater significance to this: Snake's mid and jungle players have lost their composure, especially SoFM, who had his red buff stolen twice in a row.

If he didn't break down under these circumstances, Lin Ruo would respect him 100% as a true man.

The truth is that SoFM's mentality has indeed collapsed. He didn't even want to flash his beloved F6 anymore. After a lifetime of playing games, he suffered an unprecedented humiliation.

He just wanted to save face.

However, it wasn't a good idea to go into the jungle to gank Sejuani, so SoFM chose to counter-gank in the mid-lane bushes. This was the time he had ever really wanted to gank someone.

Guoguo cooperated well, seizing the opportunity to drift forward in a diagonal figure-seven shape, summoning a sand wall in an attempt to push Ryze back to receive the baptism.

However, the sand wall seemed to be pushed a little crooked, and Scout easily twisted it out of range with a casual movement.

After the previous wave, Guoguo's usually steady mentality was clearly affected, so much so that in his eagerness to find an opportunity, he made an unavoidable angle error.

Ryze is fine, so it's him who's in trouble.

Scout, turning around, skillfully unleashed a combo that took away half of the Azir's health.

As SoFM saw the figure of the Pig Girl slowly approaching from the tower, he seemed to have made up his mind and turned away.

Guoguo moved quickly as well. Ryze couldn't kill him in one combo. With the help of the minion wave and Olaf's axe slowing him down, he finally found some distance to retreat.

However, his escape route was still long. As the winding rune arrays emerged, the Tsar's retreat was completely cut off.

Upon landing, Lin Ruo maneuvered Sejuani forward, charging and wielding her flail to block the enemy's position. Finally, she secured the Tsar's kill with a Smite.

EDG and Ling have already achieved a crushing victory.

SoFM, huddled under the tower, trembled as he listened to the system notifications. Before long, he was forced to retreat to the second tower and AFK due to the approach of EDG's mid and jungle.

He wanted to defend a tower, but he couldn't.

Staying under the tower any longer will inevitably lead to certain death. Ryze and Sejuani have no shortage of tanking ability when tower diving, nor will they lack even the slightest bit of damage.

As a result, the Zhongyi Tower, which was essentially useless, was reduced to ruins in just ten minutes.

Lin Ruo stepped aside at the right time, allowing Ryze to solo the first tower's gold. With the Seraph's Embrace buff in the current version, a well-farmed Ryze will be incredibly terrifying.

The fact that Scout had just pulled back and dealt Tsar a significant amount of damage already hinted at something.

In the subsequent situation, Snake will find it difficult to stop EDG's offensive.

The fall of the mid-lane tower has a far greater impact on all aspects than the other side-lane towers, especially in terms of the battle for the top and bottom dragons.

Without a fixed, forward-looking vision, every extra step the red team takes into the jungle makes them vulnerable to getting caught in an unavoidable vortex.

Because Sejuani is such a champion that it's so easy for her to initiate team fights due to her blind spot.

After losing the Sightstone jungle item, SoFM, who was already struggling to farm, was forced to carry at least two control wards every time he returned to base.

As he develops, he seems to fall behind, which is frustrating for SoFM.

Lin Ruo, who had taken down the Rift Herald in 12 minutes, suddenly shouted that Ryze had stolen the red monster, dealing another heavy blow to SoFM.

Even though the Vietnamese man was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but shed tears of heartache. He really wasn't allowed to taste the flavor of that monster at all.

Do you want to be so cruel?

At this point, SoFM hadn't yet realized how to write the word "ruthless" until the end of the first game, when he finally understood the profoundness of the word.
