League: I really didn't tank!

Chapter 304 Dimensional Reduction Attack

"Holy crap, is this for real?!" Uzi had actually been watching Chen Dongqing's match the whole time, but after watching for a few minutes, he was so shocked that he didn't say a word.

After the solo match ended, Uzi couldn't help but say, "This doesn't make sense, does it? Reed is really good at Dota, how could you even beat him?"

"What's so unreasonable about that? MOBA games are all pretty much the same. You just need to last-hit and auto-attack," Chen Dongqing replied with a smile.

In fact, he knew perfectly well what had happened.

With his masterful mechanics and last-hitting ability, it's no surprise that he's strong in lane.

Perhaps someone can beat him in lane now, since he does lack some skill, but this person is definitely not a 50/50 matchup.

Besides, this isn't a challenge I'm going to have a solo match with you; you came up to me all by yourself!

At this moment, the chat room of Chen Dongqing's live stream was also buzzing with discussion.

[Holy crap! A tree!]

[There's not much to brag about here. From what I saw of the laning phase, Wu Wukai didn't seem that great; he's probably just a beginner.]

[Fun fact: 55kai is a former professional DOTA player]

Is it true or false?

[Brother Tree has only been playing for a few days, and he's already beating former professional players?]

Does this mean that MOBA games share similarities with other games?

The question posed by the final bullet comments also lingered in Luwei's mind.

Is this guy's talent really that freakish? He thinks he can beat me just by bringing his League of Legends experience?

If this B had more practice, what would he be like? Wouldn't he become the hope of CNDOTA?

Thinking of this, Luwei smiled and shook her head.

It seems that CNDOTA doesn't need this hope either.

In 2016, the Chinese esports team that won the world championship alongside QG was Wings in the DOTA arena.

The story of Wings rising from humble beginnings to sweep all the way to the championship is just as legendary as that of QG.

Although Wings has now disbanded, CNDOTA, as a championship region, certainly doesn't need any so-called hope.

Lu Wei gathered his thoughts, thought for a moment, and finally spoke up: "I wasn't playing seriously just now, but I still noticed some problems with your laning phase. I'll explain them to you one by one later."

"Okay." Chen Dongqing didn't expose the other person's nonsense, but just nodded with a smile.

Let's give them some face.

Luwei was indeed there to teach. He explained the rules of hooking soldiers and controlling talismans to Chen Dongqing. Chen Dongqing nodded, absorbed the knowledge into his mind, and then slowly digested it.

Wu Wukai nodded and said, "Got it? If you've got it, let's play another round!"

Lu Wei still believes he didn't play well in the last game, and he's decided to try again this time.

Chen Dongqing smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's give it a try!"

Five minutes later.

Lu Wei suddenly realized that it was a mistake for her to teach Chen Dongqing how to control talismans and summon soldiers.

Wouldn't this make it even harder to win?

Seeing himself crouching under the tower with only 100 health left, Reed was tempted to use a teleport scroll to return to base and replenish his health.

Generally speaking, solo players are not allowed to return to base to heal or buy Magic Bottles to control runes; at most, they might buy a chicken to transport some equipment.

(DOTA2 has a courier that can help you deliver equipment.)

His attempt to seize control of the divine talisman was already a shameless act.

The two hadn't agreed on any rules regarding returning to the city. Returning should be fine.

At this moment, Chen Dongqing glanced sideways at the enemy's teleportation status and suddenly asked, "Can you return to base during a solo match?"

Chen Dongqing's words essentially put the problem out in the open.

With hundreds of thousands of viewers watching the live stream, even the thick-skinned Luwei felt too embarrassed to force a reply, so he simply canceled the teleport.

"I pressed the wrong button, I pressed the wrong button."

OK.

The result of not returning to base was that the Queen of Pain with 100 HP had no chance to last-hit minions under the tower. Chen Dongqing pushed the minion wave to the tower, hit her with a Q, and easily got the kill!

Another failure!

Luwei stared at the screen, her Dao heart crumbling.

Chen Dongqing, still chuckling, asked, "Want to keep playing?"

Still want to fight? I'll beat your mother!

The reeds roared incessantly within.

All those years of playing Dota, I've wasted my time!

I got crushed by a newbie, why should I even play Jβ?

I asked you to play Dota 2 with me so you could carry me, but you just got completely destroyed. Do you look like someone who needs to be carried?

"Never mind, I have something to do, I'm going to end the broadcast now," Luwei replied, forcing herself to calm down.

Chen Dongqing nodded: "Okay, bye-bye?"

"bye."

The voice chat ended there, and "StopSlander" left the game.

Chen Dongqing felt he had indeed gone too far, but there was nothing he could do now; he could only wait for Luwei to recover.

Without saying a word, he started another match.

This time, he once again instantly picked Annie mid, showing the true skill of a one-trick pony.

To be fair, Annie is currently the champion he has mastered the most.

This hero's QR skills are simple and straightforward, W is an area control skill, and E is a passive skill that increases attack speed and movement speed when casting skills, making it easy to pick up and play.

The system data clearly shows that his hero proficiency is at least intermediate!

In this match, Chen Dongqing had a much easier time in the laning phase.

Now that he has grasped some of the rules of mid-lane matchups, and the opponents he's matched with are far less formidable than Wu Wukai, he undoubtedly crushed his opponent in just five minutes.

Within seven minutes, Chen Dongqing, with two kills, entered the jungle and cleared out some nearby monsters.

Chen Dongqing used his Q skill to quickly eliminate a group of small monsters, leaving them all with low health. He then finished them off one by one with his basic attacks, and a few single-digit amount of gold coins disappeared into his pocket.

Seeing this, Chen Dongqing couldn't help but sigh that the money was really little, and it felt like even farming in the jungle was a bit of a waste.

But just as he finished clearing the jungle monsters and was about to return to the mid lane to clear the wave, he saw a flash of golden light in the jungle monster camp, and another round of jungle monsters appeared in the camp.

Chen Dongqing raised an eyebrow: "Holy crap, the monsters respawn this fast?"

Upon hearing this question, viewers familiar with DOTA2 were once again stunned.

How can someone with this skill level have such amazing last-hitting ability?

But they still patiently typed explanations for Chen Dongqing in the live chat.

Chen Dongqing squinted at the comments section, watching countless viewers offer their explanations, and finally managed to glean some information.

"So, the jungle monster spawn rules are different; it's not like League of Legends where clearing all the jungle monsters triggers a spawn countdown?"

The game's monster spawning system is quite unique. It checks every minute, and as long as the monster camp is empty, it will spawn a group of monsters.

Moreover, the definition of "empty" is very broad. If there are heroes or even wards in the camp, it is not considered empty and jungle monsters will not spawn.

In other words, if you clear the jungle in one minute, you can clear it again, and you can keep clearing it indefinitely.

Moreover, there are even more advanced techniques involved.

Chen Dongqing thought for a moment and said, "So that means if I lure the monsters out of the camp area when they're about to spawn, leaving the camp empty, they'll still spawn?"

At this moment, the comments section was once again filled with shock, marveling at Chen Dongqing's comprehension ability, and leaving a flood of "yes" comments.

Chen Dongqing suddenly realized.

This explains the difference in development ability between skilled DOTA2 players and average players.

Skilled players can time their attacks perfectly to lure multiple monsters out of the camp at the same time, allowing the camp to spawn another wave of monsters.

Just one basic attack is enough to gain an extra wave of jungle monster gold.

If handled properly, you can even accumulate four or five waves at once and wipe them out all at once, maximizing your capabilities!

Just imagine, if you could accumulate five waves of jungle monsters at four different locations and then clear them all out with a few AOE attacks, how high would your experience and gold be?

Of course, finding a balance between laning, jungling, and farming, so that none of these three aspects are neglected, is also a very delicate matter.

Chen Dongqing chose to adapt slowly and find a suitable rhythm.

Although his movements were still very clumsy at first, there were times when he failed to pull jungle monsters, or when he didn't pull them away when they spawned, and times when he lost minions while farming jungle monsters.

But after a few rounds, Chen Dongqing quickly found the trick and his finishing blows began to come off at lightning speed.

In this game, because of the jungle camping mechanic, it's easy to exceed the time limit for last hitting; the main thing is how much you can exceed it.

The match ended in 30 minutes. Chen Dongqing's Annie, with her fully stacked E skill passive, gained a lot of attack speed and movement speed, chasing the opponent and easily winning the game!

"Whoosh!" Chen Dongqing roared, turning to the camera and shouting, "How about it, brothers? Not bad, right?"

The people in the live stream were already numb.

You just beat even the reeds, how far are you from here?

Chen Dongqing smiled and continued playing ranked matches, getting to know the game better.

With his skills fully utilized, Chen Dongqing could feel his understanding of the game improving with each match.

After two games, his proficiency with Lina reached the advanced level.

These relatively simple heroes are not too difficult to master.

Like other games, DOTA2 requires a period of play before the ranked mode can be unlocked, so Chen Dongqing took the opportunity to improve his skills in a short time.

Chen Dongqing played all the way to dinner time, winning a series of victories.

According to the rules, a training match is required after dinner to bring the players back to competitive form, so Chen Dongqing turned around and chose to end the broadcast.

Seeing the live stream interrupted, many viewers were eager to try it themselves, immediately saving the recording and then starting to create their own videos.

A few days ago, Chen Dongqing, a beginner, played DOTA2 and got flamed by the opponent because his skills were a bit lacking.

Now that Chen Dongqing has truly changed dramatically in just a few days, it's time for LOL to finally stand up for themselves.

Countless videos were subsequently uploaded to the internet.

Among this pile of videos, one titled "[DOTA2 is nothing? Tree Bro easily mastered it in three days! Crushing former DOTA pro players!]" stood out, and its popularity soared to the top of the charts on video websites like Bilibili!

It must be said that, in many situations, clickbait headlines are indeed effective.

The moment this video was released, public opinion reversed instantly!

Countless League of Legends players spread the word, instantly making the video incredibly popular.

In just three days, Chen Dongqing went from a complete novice who didn't even know how to buy equipment to a genuine pro.

What is DOTA2 if not a simple game?

Meanwhile, DOTA2 players also watched the entire solo match between Chen Dongqing and Luwei.

They were inwardly impressed by Chen Dongqing's incredible talent, truly deserving of the title of the most talented in historical games.

But of course they wouldn't admit defeat verbally.

As a result, many comments like this appeared under the video.

[You're showing off just for beating up a reed? It's questionable whether a reed can even reach the top rank now.]

Why do you think Reed switched to League of Legends? Because he's bad at it! Because League of Legends is easy!

[At this point, we have to mention Ruofeng. He was criticized for using the "Death Finger" to kill minions in DOTA, so he came to LOL to become the number one player. It's really funny.]

[You're really good at talking back. What's the point of saying all this? Why don't you give your opinion on Brother Tree's actions?]

Clearly, regardless of which side gains the upper hand, verbal battles are inevitable.

With Chen Dongqing as her backer, she was relentless in her pursuit of justice; on the other hand, she continued to peruse the old almanac, recounting the classic figures.

This momentum grew larger and larger, and the speed of internet dissemination is always fast, directly ignoring geographical barriers and spreading directly to Europe and America.

The debate between players in Europe and America was far more heated than in China. Chen Dongqing's video, combined with sensationalist headlines from China, stirred up a massive wave!

At the center of the controversy, the senior disciple, seemingly aided by divine intervention, immediately tweeted: "Obviously, for a top-tier mechanical genius like ilex, a game like DOTA2, which doesn't require high mechanical skill, is incredibly easy. I recently learned a term from 'The Three-Body Problem,' called 'dimensional reduction attack,' and yes, that's it."

It can only be said that it is reasonable, well-founded, and convincing.

As for N0tail of the OG team, who is the main rival of the senior player, he was quite unconvinced and shouted:

"I must admit that ilex's esports talent is unique in the world, but I must also say that ilex's level does not prove anything. I don't know what kind of person 'stopslander' is on the other side. If he is really confident, he should find a professional player to fight one-on-one."

Once those words were spoken, the conversation essentially couldn't continue.

Where is Chen Dongqing supposed to find a professional DOTA2 player to play solo with?

Domestic professional players would definitely not want to play against him, since winning would be a loss and losing would be a huge financial blow.

The best target is undoubtedly this Notail; however, the fact that China and the United States are half a world apart, along with the excessive physical delay, also prevents this from happening.

Of course, Chen Dongqing also had a solution.

There are countless ways to prove your strength.

The most direct way is to deliver a brilliant performance in the competition, and countless people will prove it for you.

Of course, a competition is impossible.

Next up is the ranking matches.

As long as you can achieve a high enough rank and score, no one will question you.

Chen Dongqing only needs to start ranked matches and climb the ranks. With his current strength, all doubts will quickly disappear!

But that's a story for another time.

Because at this moment, all the QG players had finished their training matches for the day and were lying in bed preparing to sleep.

The latter half of the Summer Split regular season, and the subsequent playoffs, are crucial for all LPL teams this year.

This is because it directly represents the number of participants in this year's World Championship held in China.

Even though QG was the Spring Split champion and had a lot of points, this was still the case.

Tomorrow, QG will enter the inter-group round-robin stage to face their first opponent in the second round.

This team also had the advantage in winning the Intercontinental Cup. In the finals, they took the lead and scored the winning point for their region!
