Chapter 1562 - 1565: Why Play Yasuo If You're This Cowardly?

Once the heroes were selected, Abi, the perky girl, was taken aback. She exclaimed urgently, "Shen Qiang, are you trying to sabotage us? You're playing the mid lane with Gale Sword Master Yasso against the opposing Void Prophet Malzahar. Do you not understand hero counter-picks? You'll be stuck under the tower and won't be able to get out. By level six, Malzahar will just keep killing you one-on-one."Shen Qiang chuckled and casually responded with an "oh."

Seeing that Shen Qiang wasn't taking her seriously, Abi sighed with eyes full of helplessness, "Senior, I guess with someone like Shen Qiang—a hindrance—we might have an 80% chance of not winning. Please assist me more often. We'll try to carry the top and jungle, and it'll be up to us if we can win."

Qin Yurou smiled wryly, "Abi, it's just a game. Fun comes first, competition second."

Abi sighed, then questioned with some skepticism, "Ke Bizhu Sis, you're a Platinum Rank player, why are you playing support? You'd definitely be better at AD carry than Ye Guyun, who's never played Jinx before."

Upon hearing this, Ye Guyun seemed indifferent, but Ke Bizhu laughed and said softly, "In League of Legends or King of Glory, every player has their reasons for choosing which position to play and which hero to use. I think it mostly has to do with one's personality. Some people just like marksmen, and prefer this style of play."

"Some people enjoy playing tank heroes, charging forward, so picking a hero that suits you is key. As for counter-picking, it's not unsolvable. Moreover, since we aren't pro players and are just playing for fun, we shouldn't worry about these things. After all, it's just for fun, winning or losing doesn't really matter."

Abi pouted.

But said no more.

Meanwhile, during the game's loading screen...

A young man rushed into the owner's office of the top-ranked café,

"Brother Wang, stop dawdling, quickly call Young Master Xu. Qin Yurou is here, playing League of Legends in the esports area, along with four beauties and a guy. I just asked the internet café's staff and found out the guy is Shen Qiang."

Upon hearing this, the café's owner brightened up and promptly said, "Alright, I'll call Young Master Xu right away. You go keep an eye out."

"Okay, don't worry."

The young man turned and left the office, looking extremely confident and standing unabashedly behind Shen Qiang and the others who were seated in a row. Seeing him watching, several other young men also came over.

By now, the game had already begun.

Shen Qiang pressed the ~ key.

The ranks, gender, and match counts of both teams' members were all displayed clearly.

The situation was a bit grim.

Shen Qiang's team had three Platinums and two Golds.

Whereas the enemy team had two Diamonds and three Platinums.

Judging by rank, they already had the upper hand on Shen Qiang's team.

However, when Shen Qiang glanced at the win rates, he smiled. The stunning campus belle Qin Yurou's Blind Monk had a 63% win rate, which, for a Platinum Rank player, indicated her true skill might be above this rank.

Not only that, but Shen Qiang's Yasuo also boasted an impressive 65% win rate, far exceeding the average for that rank.

This was why they were paired against higher-ranked opponents in ranked play.

It was because the system, based on previous data, deemed their chances of winning around fifty-fifty.

Not just that, the enemy team was clearly communicating via voice chat, with all their names starting with "God". Even before the battle began, the gender of the accounts could be seen in the data, so they started speaking on the public chat.

"Don't worry, ladies on the opposite team. We'll be gentle."

"Pair up, pair up, you're all mine."

"Chase away the guys, leave the girls!"

"Hahaha, a team of beauties, huh?"

Reading their messages, Shen Qiang instinctively frowned but said nothing.

Because his team was on the red side, Qin Yurou got ready to start with red buff jungle. Ye Guyun and Ke Bizhu, the bottom lane duo, were preparing to help her with red. Shen Qiang placed a ward near the mid-lane entry from the river because the enemy saw Shen Qiang's team's bottom lane had Janna and Jinx, a pair lacking in mobility. The opponents picked Blitzcrank and Caitlyn with a Pantheon jungle, so the chance of them invading was quite high.

Even though Shen Qiang gave a warning, the enemy still chose to come around from the bottom lane river, and the entire team of five was there.

Blitzcrank hooked Ye Guyun's Jinx, Ye Guyun used Flash and Heal but still got killed, followed by Qin Yurou's Blind Monk stepping on Caitlyn's trap, and after using Flash, was killed by the enemy Caitlyn.

Gai Lun teleported into the bush but realized it was too late and decided to give up halfway.

Meanwhile, Shen Qiang stood under the mid-lane tower, not going over at all.

So in this opening move, Shen Qiang's team fell apart directly.

The bottom lane AD Jinx used both Summoner Spells, the support's Exhaust was used, the jungler Blind Monk's Flash was gone, the top-lane Gai Lun's teleport was down, with the sole exception being the Gale Sword Master, silently standing under the mid-lane tower, unaffected.

This disadvantage not only caused the young men standing behind Shen Qiang at the internet café to laugh out loud.

Players from the other team revealed their cards too.

"666, the girl's Flash was nice."

"Got the girl's First Blood."

"Hahaha, ladies, want to add friends later? I can carry you in-game and on the bed."

Seeing such messages, Abi directly exploded and started cursing in-game, while the enemy team claimed their red buff.

Such an opening left Shen Qiang, standing under the mid-lane tower, utterly helpless.

"I thought they wouldn't mess up, was I thinking too much?"

Shen Qiang pondered.

Just then, the recently revived Blind Monk, under Qin Yurou's control, headed towards the enemy jungle's red buff, she said, "Bot lane, go farming, I'm heading for their red."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang's eyes lit up.

Great, Qin Yurou was level-headed, not opting to continue fighting recklessly or feeding, meaning this game was still within reach.

As expected, as Shen Qiang had foreseen, after taking the enemy red buff in the jungle and killing the river crab, the level 3 Qin Yurou used her Blind Monk to go top lane, helping Abi set a trap. Together, they killed the opposing solo top Jax and jungle Pantheon. Despite Abi's Gai Lun dying, Qin Yurou, who secured two kills, suddenly took off.

After recalling back to base, she went mid lane to help Shen Qiang slay the opposing Void Prophet Malzahar; then a team fight in the bot lane resulted in successfully killing the enemy ADC, but the enemy Pantheon countered, Jax teleported bot lane, Shen Qiang provided support from the jungle, but when he arrived, Qin Yurou's Blind Monk, Ye Guyun's Jinx, and Ke Bizhu's Janna had all perished.

The enemy Master of Weapons Jax was at half health, Blitzcrank at half health, and Pantheon at two-thirds health.

Seeing this situation, Shen Qiang didn't rush in to feed, instead, he cautiously shrunk under the tower to soak up experience.

So, the three opponents not only revealed their icons as a brazen taunt, but also arrogantly typed in the public chat.

"You're really bad."

"Heh, playing Sword Master but acting so cowardly?"

"LOL, this cowardly Sword Master, if you've got the guts, come out."
