Chapter 767: Chapter 240: Roster Changes in League of Legends!

"Classmates, today I’m bringing you a game that you’ve all been waiting for, ’League of Legends’!"

"Eh, let’s start with a match. I practiced a bit on my own after the last stream, and now you don’t need to doubt, I’ve become a master."

"But to be honest, I still don’t quite understand what genre this game falls under. Does anyone know?"

At three o’clock in the afternoon, in Dasima’s livestream room.

’League of Legends’ had been launched for two days.

This innovative competitive game posed a somewhat high difficulty for first-time players,

especially those who had never played such a game before.

As a result, many players were utterly confused when they first tried it.

You could call it a fighting game,

but it seemed to integrate a lot more than just combat.

And if you called it an action game,

its actions weren’t all that numerous, consisting of just a passive plus four abilities, if you count the basic attack’s animation canceling.

Counted up, it didn’t even have as many actions as ’Eternity’.

For a while, the debate raged on in the chat.

"The main objective is to destroy the opposing Nexus, but before doing that, there are tons of hidden side objectives. Plus, players can roam freely in Summoner’s Rift. Got it, it’s an open-world/Dog Head."

"Marksmen can lock onto minion heads, and their weapons are long-range. This must be an FPS!"

"There are defense turrets, isn’t it a tower defense game?"

"Stop arguing, listen to me. I ran into a dumb teammate yesterday, added him as a friend after the game, and cursed him out for two hours, nearly smashed my keyboard. This is a typing simulator."

As the chat playfully teased, the game had already found a match.

Dasima clicked to enter the hero selection phase.

So far, the top player had released a total of 70 characters.

Marksmen, warriors, assassins, mages, tanks, supports—you name it, they got it.

And Dasima’s favorite was none other than the burly man wielding a broad axe, the ’Hand of Noxus.’

He had been practicing this champion all of yesterday.

He had already memorized the abilities thoroughly.

Q Skill, he’d extend his axe outward, spinning it around to deal damage and recover a bit of health.

W Skill, delivered additional damage and slowed the enemy.

E Skill allowed him to pull enemies within a small fan-shaped area in front of him toward himself.

And the R Ability, ’Noxus Guillotine,’ involved the champion leaping up high, with the force of a mountain collapsing, swinging the axe down with mighty force.

The key reason Dasima favored him was because

after killing an enemy with the ultimate, he could instantly use it a second time.

In other words, he could face multiple opponents.

As a streamer, he always needed to consider the showmanship.

Scenes where he took on multiple foes were evidently more exciting to watch.

However, at that moment, Dasima hadn’t realized yet.

His excitement never really depended on the champion.

As the game entered the loading screen, the loading bar quickly filled, and he entered Summoner’s Rift, the show was delivered to him on a platter.

’League of Legends’ had only been out for a couple of days, still in its most primitive and chaotic stage.

There were no professional terms such as jungling, top lane, mid lane, and so on.

Moreover, the vast majority of players who had passed the tutorial

were taught to start pushing from the middle lane.

So, the sight of five people grouping up and heading down mid lane as soon as they went online was quite normal.

Both teams would rush to mid lane and engage in an intense brawl before the minion waves collided.

And this scene would continue until the end of the game.

Essentially, whichever side lost more players, the other would gain the right to push turrets.

Only the living had the right to push turrets!

At this time, champions with AOE, long skill shots, and abilities that could refresh were in high demand.

The ’Wuji Bladesman’ was particularly popular, able to hit four opponents with one Q Skill and remain invulnerable while it’s active.

Upon reaching level 6, it was even more of a game-changer, with kills refreshing the minor abilities.

Apart from that, champions like ’Annie,’ ’Little Mage,’ and ’Lux,’ with their high burst and sufficient AOE, were also quite popular among players.

At this moment, Dasima’s team composition was: ’Sword Saint,’ ’Lux,’ ’Annie,’ ’Phoenix,’ alongside a ’Hand of Noxus.’

Upon seeing this lineup, Dasima felt a surge of confidence.

He typed energetically,

"Brothers, we’ve already won this game. Let’s see who can get more kills!"

Teammates responded with various playful and teasing messages,

acting as if this invincible lineup had already secured victory,

completely clueless about how to lose!

However, after the five of them set out toward mid lane and took a closer look, they all appeared somewhat stunned.

The five opposing champions were... quite unfamiliar.

Almost unused by anyone during these two days.

Some kind of ’Steam Robots,’ ’Soul Lock Warden,’ also ’Titan of the Depths,’ ’Bloodharbor Ripper,’ and even a ’Fallen Angel.’

"Don’t be scared. It doesn’t matter if we encounter unfamiliar champions. Let me try them out first," Dasima called out and, lighting up his Q Skill, he confidently marched the ’Hand of Noxus’ forward.

Dasima had made an assumption in his heart.

It wouldn’t matter if those champions focused their fire on him.

Because his mass slaughter ability could recover health, the more people he hit, the more health he’d regain.

He could rely on the skill’s characteristics to test out the unfamiliar champions’ moves first, then adjust his tactics later.

But he’d only just reached the midpoint of the lane when suddenly,

"Whoosh!" The short and plump ’Steam Robot’ across from him shot out a grappling hook and snagged the ’Hand of Noxus,’ who didn’t dodge or flee.
