“Be more aggressive,” Qiming told his Support.

“Isn’t that really a good idea?” His Support replied.

“What’s not good about it? You’re a Lulu Support, and your CC is strong, what are you afraid of?” Qiming retorted.

Qiming still wasn’t satisfied, how strong could a f*cking Support be?

Saying that the Support was the one who had carried the game, but although Annie had gotten the kills in the beginning, she had only been buying more Vision Wards for vision control, and it was something that all Supports did. There wasn’t any reason to make such a big fuss.

“He chose Fiddlesticks for Support this time round, if we get hit by Terrify, it’ll definitely be painful.” His Support said.

“This guy really thinks he’s some god, always picking unconventional Supports. He’s asking to get killed.” Qiming said.

The combination of CC from Caitlyn and Lulu was fearsome, in lane, they were practically unbeatable. With this combination, they could indeed afford to be more aggressive.

Fiddlesticks and Corki, this was definitely an interesting match up!

With the buff on Trinity Force in the recent patch, those ADCs that would build Trinity Force would be affected, and the most prominent one of them all was The Daring Bombardier—Corki.

Team Skycrown had accounts in the US server, and they would frequently train there, playing with the newest updates and items.

Once they had new plays, they would practice against the people from Shanghai University. Incidentally, SHU would also be playing with the newest updates and items. Before their local server had received the latest updates and buff on Trinity Force, Jinbei had already been training hard with Corki.

The buff on Trinity Force had only come in recently in the local server, and Jinbei had not used Corki in the previous two matches. However, in this third and final match, he needed to go all out, so he didn’t hesitate and picked this champion!

For Luocheng, his pick with Fiddlesticks as his Support was something he had learnt from Wu Sen. Wu Sen was a top player in the country and knew a lot of things. Wu Sen’s playstyle of Fiddlesticks had been used in the practice matches between Team Skycrown and Team SHU a few times and had surprised Luocheng, so he too, began to train this champion as a Support…

In the end, Wu Sen had taught Luocheng how to play Fiddlesticks as a Support. Luocheng had trained for a few days before managing to beat Wu Sen and Xiao Bei in a normal match up at the bottom lane.

Those days, Xiao Bei and Wu Sen were overshadowed by Luocheng’s Fiddlesticks Support. Once they weren’t training but playing official matches, they had banned Fiddlesticks immediately without any further explanation!

Jinbei and Luocheng had also been paired up and practicing for a month or two now, and while this strategy was not so easy to use, it was one that they had trained long and hard in! In this decisive match, they didn’t dare to hold back anything and instead, chose the best coordinated team they excelled in!

Reaching the lane, Luocheng began to calculate the experience gained as usual. This was a habit of his from playing league, if there were no other factors involved in the first four levels, he could tell when both sides would level up just by the number of minions in the lane.

One of the keys to winning was having an advantage in levels, especially for champions like Corki and Fiddlesticks, who relied heavily on their skills. Their opponents were playing aggressively, you could tell from the fact that they kept hovering near the front of the minions and were always trying to pressure Luocheng and Jinbei.

Lulu’s Q together with Caitlyn’s attack range and Q allowed them to have a relatively big advantage in the beginning, and Luocheng didn’t intend to risk anything to retaliate.

“Don’t get hit by them too much even when you’re farming. Hold out until level three.” He reminded Jinbei.

Jinbei nodded his head, signaling that he had heard him.

During this period of interaction, Jinbei’s ADC had grown a lot. You could say that under the guidance of Luocheng’s Support, Jinbei had come to realize the pros and cons of various champion combinations at the bottom lane, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of them.

The combination of Fiddlesticks and Corki was not the strongest at level one, and they definitely wouldn’t be able to beat a Lulu and Caitlyn who were practically invincible at this level.

The time when they truly wouldn’t fear them would be when they reached level three, so as long as they didn’t lose too much health before then, they would be able to seize an opportunity and turn the tides against them!

***

“Heh, they’re useless, just beat them to the ground.” Qiming sneered.

Fiddlesticks’ Q—Terrify had a range of only 575, Caitlyn could easily maintain her distance, and Fiddlesticks wouldn’t be able to inflict Fear on her at all.

Caitlyn and Lulu were fast to force Corki and Fiddlesticks under their turret, and before they had even reached level three, their CS had fallen behind by five.

Corki was also considered to be a short ranged champion, and it was hard for him to avoid losing health and farm at the same time.

The minion wave had reached the turret and it was hard to get the last hit for some. Their CS fell behind by seven and it didn’t help that their opponent’s suppression capabilities were also strong.

Fiddlesticks didn’t dare to stand too far front, as he was also shorter ranged and had no abilities to regenerate his health. The moment he stood in front, he would definitely get poked by Lulu and Caitlyn, thus, he could only play it safe for the moment.

“3…”

“2…”

Luocheng silently counted down, like a tiger ready to pounce on its prey!

Jinbei’s eyes immediately sharpened, pacing himself with Luocheng as he already knew from his time with him, that this was the signal to prepare.

Everytime Luocheng calculated the experience in preparation to clear a wave, he would start the count backward. Once he reached ‘1’, Jinbei wouldn’t even need to look at his experience gauge, it was definitely accurate and all he needed to do was upgrade his skills immediately and keep up with Luocheng’s assault!

To be honest, Jinbei suspected that Luocheng was insane to be able to calculate all the experience in the first four levels. You needed to understand that the experience gained from melee minions were different than ranged minions, and whether or not you could get the experience based on your position was also another matter…

“1!” Luocheng spat out the last number.

That was the exact moment Jinbei hit and disposed of the last minion!

Bamf!

Fiddlesticks Flashed suddenly, and despite his previously meek defensive position before, without warning, he was in front of Lulu!

Lulu had been just about to leave the turret range when she saw a scarecrow with its arms wide open, his eyes exuding a fearsome aura. Lulu panicked at that, and somehow, started taking a step forward toward the turret instead of away from it!

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat!

Jinbei had been ready for the assault, opening his Gatling Gun immediately into Lulu’s face directly!

The sudden rise in damage output by Corki at level three was terrifying, and Lulu’s health dropped by half immediately. Worse still, the step she had taken forward had placed her in the turret range, and it immediately targeted her and shot straight at her!

ZJU’s Support panicked and fumbled as he quickly slammed the Flash key down.

But as the effect of the 1.5 second Fear had just worn off, a black crow landed on Lulu’s small body!

1.2 seconds of Silence!

Lulu couldn’t activate any skills, and with Luocheng’s beautiful combo, he had controlled a total of 2.7 seconds!

Giving a 2.7 second to a Corki to make some damage at level three, how much damage do you think could be dealt?

A level three Corki had a damage of around 85, in 2.7 seconds, he could unleash two basic attacks and that could take away at least 150 health from Lulu.

A second level Q could take away about 120 health with the help of Fiddlesticks’ passive—magic resist reduction. His E—Gatling Gun was for 2 seconds and could take away about 40 health, plus the effect of Corki’s passive…

In short, even if it was just Corki, he could deal about 400 damage in the span of 2 seconds!

Adding on Fiddlesticks’ crows that had about 60 damage, the total damage output would add up to about 460!

A level three Lulu’s health would be about 600. Under normal circumstances, she should still have about 100 health left over, just enough for her to Flash, use Exhaust, or even cast her shield to escape with her life…

But don’t forget, she also had to withstand the damage from the turret once!

The turret’s damage was definitely above 1,000, so in other words, together with the CC and damage output as well as turret attack, they could definitely kill Lulu!

***

Once the 2.7 seconds was up, Lulu Flashed out with just a measly 10 health left!

Jinbei didn’t hesitate and Flashed forward, and using a basic attack, he secured the kill on Lulu!

300!

The pop up of 300 gold appeared on top of Corki, and it would have been useless even if Lulu had used her shield.

The screen of ZJU’s Support immediately greyed out, and he was speechless for a moment. It was that damn attack by the turret, if he hadn’t gotten hit and used Exhaust on Corki, instead using shield on himself, he might have survived that…

He didn’t understand where Fiddlesticks had gotten the balls to Flash right up at his face to cast Fear on him, and besides, how was he to know that Lulu would definitely walk that way!

Annoyance, surprise and puzzlement all together, ZJU’s Support—Jianbin couldn’t make sense of it!

***

“Beautiful, Luocheng’s doing it!”

After three minutes, there was a delightful cheer resounding from Shanghai University.

The student in charge of the OB broadcast was well aware that Luocheng was the carry in the team, and he tried his best to direct the camera on Luocheng most of the time.

Everyone clearly saw the entire play where Luocheng had Flashed and manipulated Lulu resulting in killing her! No one had expected that Fiddlesticks, who had been meek in the previous seconds, would suddenly lash out like a hero, and the fact that once he had made a move, it was a confirmed kill!

It was such a triumphant experience!

It could be seen that the rumors of Shanghai University having a superb freshman Support was true, you could see it from the past two matches!

***

“This Support is strong, don’t make me repeat myself!” Feilong snarled, anger seeping into his voice as he spoke to the bottom lane.

Feilong had watched the scene play out.

SHU’s Support had a good grasp on calculating the experience, damage and health left. He clearly knew that as long as he managed to inflict Fear on Lulu, she would take a step back. Adding on the turret’s damage, he could definitely kill Lulu, and that was why he had dared to Flash and Terrify her.

The difference between an amatuer player and a professional player was the ability to calculate health and damage output of the champions during the game. Feilong was only able to roughly judge that this Support was strong overall, but now, he could be certain that this Support was definitely on par with a professional player!

It wasn’t a coincidence that they had lost the previous match, it was this Support that had orchestrated the entire play that led to their crushing defeat!

Feilong was not afraid of opponents who had the advantage in lanes, what he dreaded was opponents who could continuously use these advantages together with their team and dominate the entire match!

It was obvious that SHU’s Support was a dangerous person who was terrifying and could threaten their chances of entering the semi-finals!
