LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 358 What is the relationship between the Dota 2 electric stick and the League of Legends electric stick?

Moreover, it wasn't just one person who knew him; it was obvious that everyone knew him, including his teammates. Lin Ruo saw that the players in positions three and four in the chat area were greeting him.

As a handsome and polite anchor, Lin Ruo naturally had to respond positively without losing his composure.

He casually typed a boastful message: "I'm good enough to play mid, right, guys?"

His teammates naturally typed "OK" and "That's fine" in unison, after all, Lin Ruo's win rate was indeed high and he could carry the team, they had no choice but to agree.

With a smirk, Lin Ruo turned to the viewers in the live chat and said, "Look, this is the prestige a streamer has among high-level Dota players. Although I don't want to admit it, it's a fact."

[I really want to climb up the internet cable and beat Lin Gengxin to death! How could he be so pretentious?]

Brothers, you'll get used to it. Once you get used to Lin Gengxin's boasting, you'll realize that his boasting is truly deserving of a beating.

[As expected, there's a reason why our Lin Shen rarely leaves the club; his risk awareness is ridiculously high.]

[He definitely deserves a beating, but watching Lin play and act cocky in post-match interviews is really satisfying, especially when he bullies the Korean team.]

It's simple: I only enjoy Lin Gou's boasting if it's not directed at us; if it is, I want to beat him up.

[Lin Gou really needs to be more low-key. If he's too arrogant, it'll backfire when he loses a match. What, Lin Gou never loses a match? Well, that's fine then.]

...

Lin Ruo, having finished her initial setup, took a sip of water. A teammate casually mentioned in the chat that the enemy's second position player seemed to be Refuse.

Lin Ruo took a closer look and realized that the opposing mid laner had locked in the Flashbang, commonly known as the "bottom-tier soul".

In the latest version released in early 18, the Electric Stick received a buff that completely proved itself, making it one of the most popular mid-lane heroes. Its superior laning and fighting abilities make it an indispensable choice for aggressive online players.

The hero Electric Stick's skills are also very simple.

The first skill can release a plasma energy field whose power increases with the expansion level, and it will also deal damage to enemies it passes through when it contracts.

The farther away from the hero, the greater the damage.

The second skill is Static Link, which creates a static connection between the electric baton and an enemy hero, similar to Karma's Chains, but with different effects. It cannot be used for crowd control but can steal the enemy's attack power.

To be precise, it should be more similar to Ming Shi Yin's skills; sorry, that's quite a mismatch.

The third skill is a passive skill that increases the stun baton's movement speed. It also applies an electric current to a selected unit every five seconds, causing corresponding damage and slowing the target, and can dispel buffs.

The ultimate ability, Eye of the Storm, unleashes a powerful lightning storm that strikes the enemy hero with the lowest health.

Lin Ruo had no intention of searching on Baidu. He actually knew the person who refused; he was a professional DOTA2 player from the VG team and had won the 2017 Asia Invitational Tournament SOLO championship.

Yes, just like his idol, Uzi, he is a Solo champion and definitely a top professional player.

The game ID of the Refuser is paparazi灬. He is called the Refuser because he has been stuck at 9000 points in the ranked ladder and has never dropped below that level. Therefore, he is known as the man who refuses to drop below 9000 points, or simply the Refuser.

Indeed, Lin Ruo examined his opponent's ladder score, which was firmly held at 9000 points, showing no signs of dropping.

However, if we lose this round, we'll definitely fall behind.

[Stuck at 9000 points again? As we all know, the refuser won't drop below 9000 points, so we can congratulate Lin on getting the win in advance. Brothers, let's pop the champagne and not worry about being proven wrong.]

[How dare you! You're using some kind of mystical theory to doubt my, Lin Shen's, strength? Get out of here right now!] [The Refuser isn't weak either, a strong contender for the top spot in the national server. To be honest, Lin Gou might not be able to beat him.]

[If he's really good at it, I suggest Lin Gou (Lin Gou) go play in the Dota 2 professional league. It's a shame that such a talent isn't playing Dota and winning the world championship.]

[You're really scheming! If Lin Gou can't beat them, you Knife fans will laugh at him; if he can, you should send him to the professional league. So you think you can get away with anything?]

[Hurry up and start it, stop dawdling, I want to see some high-level matches.]

[Was it Karl who pressed the 'Refuse' button? It seems he's also wary of Lin Ruo's hero pool.]

"What should we play, bros?" Lin Ruo, who hadn't been paying much attention to the chat, kept scrolling through various mid-lane heroes. Since Karl was being banned, he really didn't have anything he wanted to play for the moment.

Then there's only one principle to follow when choosing heroes for this game: find heroes that counter your opponent.

"What mid-lane heroes are good at dealing with stun batons?" Lin Ruo muttered, stroking his chin as he pondered.

Is it possible that the stun gun in League of Legends is better than the stun gun in Dota 2? That's a bit far-fetched.

Without a word, Lin Ruo chose to search on Baidu. The hero Electric Stick had only recently become popular, and he hadn't encountered him many times before. Besides choosing a hero, he would probably have to study the opponent's skills first.

And since he did all that, it's no surprise that he's never played with the stun gun. The reason he doesn't play it is simple: he just thinks the hero is a bit ugly and doesn't want to play it.

Actually, he thinks there are quite a few ugly heroes in Dota 2, but there's nothing he can do about it; he really has a particular fondness for and dislikes the ugliness of the Electric Stick.

Also, the nickname "stun gun" is a bit of a bad choice.

After a quick glance of about ten seconds, it's clear that there are still quite a few heroes who can counter heroes like Morphling, Drow Ranger, and Terrorblade.

This is similar to the choices offered by the bullet comments. If it weren't for the fact that the people in the live stream were all seasoned veterans, they would definitely think Lin Ruo was a fool.

You're telling me that people who reach nearly 9000 MMR in high-level games rely on Baidu to search for counter heroes? They even know the enemy hero's skills?
This isn't just outrageous, it's absolutely outrageous.

However, if it's Lin Ruo, then it's alright, since he only played for less than two months.

Well, then in two months, he inexplicably surged to 8000 points.

"Okay, let's do this then."

Finally, torn between choosing between using the stun gun and restraining it, Lin Ruo smiled broadly and pulled out the Butcher.

Sorry, he was just asking casually and doing some random searching; he didn't say he absolutely had to use restraint.

After all, he always believed that he was the most confident person, and that as long as he was strong enough, he could play any hero.

The concept of restraint only applies to players who are not strong enough; he doesn't need it.

all in all.

The viewers in the live stream immediately felt cheated again and offered their opinions earnestly, only to find that the streamer was there to make a joke and ended up choosing a random killer.

No, does the Butcher have any connection whatsoever with the hero who counters the Electric Stick?

In an instant, countless people outside the screen rolled their eyes. Lin Ruo used to live stream to create entertainment for them, but now Lin Ruo is live streaming to find entertainment from them.

They're making money and having fun at the same time, but who exactly is watching the live stream?
