LOL: What is a roaming mid laner?

When we walked out of the airport, it was already dusk in Las Vegas, and the setting sun was like blood on the horizon, which looked particularly vast and shocking under the clear sky.

The bus painted with fists was waiting outside, and Vincent took out his mobile phone to contact other colleagues.

"Let's wait for half an hour," he hung up the phone and ran back. "The LCK team will be here soon. Let's go to the hotel together."

"Can I have something to eat and take a rest?" Shiba Inu said sickly, "I've been on the plane for almost 20 hours and I'm almost exhausted."

Even if Riot arranged a business class cabin for them, it still wouldn't be able to withstand such a long journey.

Lin Ran felt sore in his back and immediately agreed with Jack's suggestion.

"Okay, there are a lot of cafes around here. You guys stay here and don't move around..." Vincent said something disgusting to them, and then ran to buy drinks with a smile.

It's not too warm in Las Vegas now, so Lin Ran and others stayed outside to stretch their hands and feet.

After a long journey, they didn't even want to get on the bus and huddle up, they just wanted to relax and stretch their bodies.

During this period, many passengers leaving the airport were looking at them.

Although the United States is a country of immigrants, there are many Asians among its members.

However, such a group of young people wearing uniforms and jackets still attracted a lot of attention. Fortunately, the YM team members and the two anchors were used to being watched, so they did not feel embarrassed.

A quarter of an hour later, Vincent came back carrying two brown paper bags.

"I bought hot coffee and sandwiches, let's eat them while they're hot..." He asked the players and anchors to place their suitcases, and then urged everyone to get in the car.

Lin Ran was given a sandwich with roast beef. The American side had quite a bit of meat, and he felt his stomach was a little full after eating it.

It happened that the LCK players also left the airport and boarded the bus with their luggage.

In addition to Faker and Bang, who directly entered the All-Star Game based on audience votes, three members of the 2015 SKT lineup, Marin, Bengi and Wolf, were also invited.

In addition, there is Captain Jack who entered the All-Stars through a direct invitation channel and a female anchor.

Since this is not the main game, the players are very relaxed and chatting and joking among themselves.

Li Sang Hyuk hesitated for a moment, then walked to Lin Ran.

"Are you really going to leave?" He also brought in a new translator, Ji Jingong, to help him maintain communication.

"Yes," Lin Ran nodded and admitted, raising his head and drinking all the coffee in the paper cup, "I decided to rest for a while first."

"Why?" Lee Sang Hyuk was very puzzled. "Your condition has obviously not declined, the team is running smoothly, and the age structure is not abnormal. Why do you need to rest?"

Lin Ran paused.

He thought for a moment and then replied seriously, "The moment when Incheon won the cup, it was really ecstatic. Three consecutive championships have put me at the pinnacle of honor..."

"But after the excitement of winning the championship has passed, I sometimes wonder, will winning the championship really make me happy?"

"Do you know how I spent the past three years... boring training day after day, never letting go of my heart, for fear of being caught up by others later on, but I didn't feel bored doing it at the time, and I even enjoyed it. ," Lin Ran sighed, "But after three consecutive championships, that spirit has dissipated."

Lee Sang Hyuk also fell silent after listening to Jin Gong's translation.

"Will winning the championship really make me happy?" He once heard a similar statement from Bang.

There always seems to be a period of burnout.

It's just that people can't generalize between people. Lin Ran's threshold is a little higher than Pei Junzhi.

Faker can't guarantee that he can really get through it.

If he wins three consecutive championships, he might have the same idea as Lin Ran.

"Okay, I can understand..." Lee Sang Hyuk became more motivated, "I will definitely win the Summoner's Trophy next year!"

SKT has integrated a very strong lineup next year. Although four teammates have been replaced, Mr. Dai + Mata have been working together for two years, and the team's tacit understanding is still guaranteed.

Moreover, although Ueno Nuguri and Canyon are not well-known, they have played several training matches these days. Lee Sang Hyuk feels that their potential is still good. If they can improve quickly, their chances of winning will be greatly improved.

"Then I wish you good luck." Lin Ran gave him his sincere blessing.

The bus started slowly and headed to the hotel for check-in.

Due to various entertainment activities this year, Riot has invited many anchors, and the number of people participating in the All-Stars is higher than before.

In addition to the 1v1 solo match, Lin Ran will also participate in a 2v2 battle with Zhou Shuyi this time.

And Jack took Tiger God with him.

Lin Ran has been filming promotional videos since he arrived in Las Vegas. Riot Games also knew that this was the last official event he would participate in as a player, so they used him to death and wanted to keep him running at high speed 24 hours a day.

Finally, it was December 7th, and Lin Ran finally got through it.

The All-Star Game officially begins.

The venue is located at the Esports Arena on the Las Vegas Strip. This is a professional esports arena that can accommodate thousands of people to watch the game.

"The wonderful month of December has finally arrived," the bearded host stood at the center of the stage. "This is the last call for the 2018 season. Excellent players from all over the world have gathered together to provide wonderful performances to the audience in the next three days. Awesome game!”

"Let us first invite the 10 voting winners from the five major regions to appear on stage!"

"Caps and Perkz from the LCS.EU division..."

In fact, the real European vote king is rekkles, and his number of fans is terrifying.

However, he took a leave of absence and did not participate in this All-Star Game.

Supplementing downwards is G2’s new double C.

Xiaomao announced that he would join G2 on the first day of the transfer period. This is obviously because he had private communication with AP and Carlos before the transfer window opened. Otherwise, players of this level make decisions carefully, how could it be possible on the first day? Just do it directly?

Caps' departure made FNC management very angry. They applied to Riot Games for sanctions to punish G2 and Perkz, claiming that the other party violated global anti-poaching regulations.

Riot investigated for half a month, but in the end it was settled, and Ah P’s pool party was successfully evaded.

"Bjergsen and Sneaky from the LCS.NA division!"

The popularity of veteran North American players like Bilson is quite exaggerated, and Sneaky has also performed very well this year.

Next up were the players from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. The two mid laners, Fengtang and Ximen, stood out.

After Faker and Bang took the stage, the host lowered his voice, and then said loudly with a rich voice, "Finally, let us welcome JackeyLove and... Ran from the LPL region with warm applause!"

Applause, whistles and screams were mixed together, and the atmosphere in the entire venue was instantly ignited!

Lin Ran and Jack quickly left the backstage and appeared in front of the audience.

There were people in the audience shouting their IDs.

“The All-Stars are ready, let’s enjoy this wonderful weekend!”

The spotlight kept flashing, and the words ALL STAR also appeared on the LED screen behind the player seats.

Ten players exited the stage one after another.

After two solo games, it was Lin Ran's turn.

"Brother Ran, if I don't play well later, please bear with me," Zhou Shuyi said in a hoarse voice while giving a vaccination next to her, "I'm definitely not as good as the opponent."

What is about to be held is a 2V2 contest, against the good brothers Faker and Captain Jack Sparrow.

From an objective point of view, if Lin Ran takes Zhou Shuyi, who is probably a platinum goalkeeper, to fight against the opposing dual professional players, he has basically no chance of winning.

"It's okay," Lin Ran was still chatting with his girlfriend on the other side of the ocean. When he saw the staff indicating that he was ready to appear, he put away his phone, "I come to All-Stars just to relax..."

"You have to play games with a smile," he said with relief, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

The host was already announcing the curtain. Lin Ran picked up his keyboard and mouse and entered the venue. Zhou Shuyi quickly followed.

Plugging the connecting cable into the USB socket on the desktop, the two of them sat down to debug the machine.

Zhou Shuyi followed suit and confirmed that her computer was fine.

The audience in the domestic live broadcast room became excited when they saw them appear.

[Why bring Zhou Shuyi to play 2v2? Sister Chengzi won't be jealous? 】

[ @Lin Ran is not allowed to drink Coke, I will help you get out]

[Brother Ran will suffer a lot when he goes back]

[Am I the only one who cares about the outcome of this 2v2? 】

[Can you still win? Are you afraid you look down on Faker? 】

Lin Ran smiled and chatted with the other party in the custom room.

He was not very familiar with Captain Jack, and the main person he chatted with was Li Sang Hyuk.

The two communicated in brief English for 5 minutes before the referee announced the start of the game.

"What should I play?" Zhou Shuyi felt that on this occasion, she needed to listen to Lin Ran's opinion.

"Hmm..." Lin Ran pondered for a moment.

The 2V2 map, like the Solo match, is fought in the Howling Abyss of the Polar Brawl.

The first team to obtain a tower, 100 knives, or two kills wins.

"Can you support or ADC?" He felt that this 2v2 bottom lane duo would be more intense.

"My ADC is average," Zhou Shuyi immediately responded, "How about I play the piano girl?"

Except for R, Sona's other skills are all available. Even if the opponent is a professional player, she has to endure it. She can't move away by moving.

Lin Ran originally wanted to make wedding dresses for people. This was an entertainment project for him, but for anchors like Zhou Shuyi who relied on live broadcasts for a living, it was best to be more eye-catching.

But Zhou Shuyi said so, so he didn't shirk anymore and locked Delevingne.

After these two heroes were selected, the barrage was filled with question marks.

[Zhou Shuyi plays the piano girl, I can only describe it as humiliating herself]

[Brother Ran uses Draven? Okay ah? 】

[It’s all a chore anyway. You don’t think you have to win this kind of competition, do you? 】

[Don’t be embarrassed, YM’s number one Draven is actually my brother Ran, and Jack is my younger brother! 】

[It’s okay, Faker and Captain Jack didn’t want to win either]

Entering the loading interface, Lin Ran also saw the opponent's hero selection.

Captain Jack uses Lucian and cooperates with Lee Sang Hyuk's Minotaur!

Faker's Tauren Chieftain is as famous in Korean as Lin Ran's Yasuo.

He's the kind of character who specializes in messing with people's mentality.

Nowadays, choosing one is a whole job.

Captain Jack was helpless.

Lee Sang Hyuk was still there, hehehe Zhile, "Look, I'll give you the whole big one."

Both sides are born in the base.

Riot has specially adjusted some parameters for this All-Star Game.

The four heroes are all level 1 and only have 500 gold coins.

"Buy the Dolan Ring and it will restore my blood when the time comes. If you have nothing to do, I'll waste it on my opponent." Lin Ran set the main tone.

"No problem," Zhou Shuyi agreed, "I will come after you give the signal!"

The two came to the grass closest to their respective defense towers.

Li Sang Hyuk kept walking for a moment, and directly looked into the grass, and saw Qin Nu and Draven.

"Go, go, go!" Lin Ran just did it when he saw him. He learned the Q skill and took out an ax to strike.

Zhou Shuyi quickly invested in skill points and kept up with her teammates.

However, Lee Sang-hyeok counterattacked decisively, Q-dodge knocked both of them away, and even set the piano girl on fire.

Captain Jack also rushed over, using Lucian's basic attack to connect the body-penetrating holy light and penetrate the two bodies at the same time.

Qin Nu was a squishy person, and Lucian followed up with two shots to passively trigger a strong attack, and her health volume dropped by half in an instant.

"No, I have to go..." Zhou Shuyi panicked.

She didn't expect that the other party would still insist on fighting her to the end.

He handed over the flash, but Captain Jack also flashed and gave himself a mouthful of healing spell acceleration.

It was obvious that he wanted to pursue him hard.

"Don't panic, don't panic," Lin Ran was still calming her down, "turn around and hit Lucian!"

Zhou Shuyi believed in Lin Ran unconditionally. She turned around and handed over her skills and ignition to Captain Jack.

Lin Ran kept hitting Lucian with his axe.

The layers of the Conqueror he brought this round were stacked up before his eyes, and the slashing output became more and more painful.

Captain Jack's last basic attack killed Qin Nu, but he didn't have much health left.

Lin Ran finally showed off his second ax and struck Captain Jack twice, killing him and then continued forward to chop Li Sang Hyuk.

The cheers were non-stop!

They didn't expect that the winner would be decided at level 1 between the two sides!

Faker smiled and shook his head.

He didn't flash, Q Earthshatter didn't turn around, and it was absolutely impossible to escape from Lin Ran.

In the end, Lin Ran stacked up the conquerors and pocketed the second head with one axe!

The game ends immediately!

"...You win now?" Zhou Shuyi couldn't believe her eyes.

I didn’t do anything at all, so is this okay?

"The opponent is messing around," Lin Ran raised his lips, "How can there be a Niutou who dodges when he comes up to level 1?"

Lee Sang Hyuk made it clear that he was here to create effects for the show.

Lin Ran also responded in the subsequent Solo match.

After discussion, both parties chose Teemo.

In this Mushroom Bobbi contest, Lin Ran failed to win and was ultimately defeated at the feet of his opponent.

"The game that is about to take place can be said to be highly anticipated..." the host said in a rough voice, "two strong contenders for the strongest team in the history of League of Legends. They will provide a visual feast to the world!"

"SKT, the 2015 League of Legends Global Finals champions, will face YM, the 2017 and 2018 Global Finals champions!"

The sound waves in the auditorium were rising one after another!

Dry ice erupted and ten contestants from both sides took the stage!

I won’t write about this game in detail.
