Previously, to deal with JK, the best way was to target Lu Qi. Banning the heroes he was good at, limiting his position so that he dared not leave the turret to farm, and half the match would have been won.

And Lu Qi was used to playing mage assassins. His positioning would be more forward and showy as compared to other people. He really could not play the typical mage.

This forward positioning of his was already deeply engraved in his bones and could not be easily changed.

Either he selects a tanky hero who LZ could not one-shot; or the support protects him all the way, making sure he would not get killed by the enemy while diving in.

To put it simply, it was to give Lu Qi the chance to deal damage.

Chang’e, this hero, now seemed to be customized for Lu Qi to use.

A mage tank. The setup of her mana as a shield made it so that the more mana she had, the higher the survivability rate. She could deal significant damage and survive simultaneously, guaranteeing Lu Qi’s survival rate.

Though the range of her skills was small, Lu Qi did not have much difficulty adapting. After all, the range of mage assassin’s skills was often short.

Adding on a protective Yu Yue, who was always in the mid lane providing vision. The places that Lu Qi passed or was going to pass were all lit up by her.

These three factors combined completely solved the problem of Lu Qi being helpless when he could not play mage assassins.

“Can, can!”At the seventeenth minute, Da Qing pushed the minion wave to the high ground, “Ling Chen, push the bot lane, prepare to end the game in one wave!’

They just killed Xiao Qiao, and LZ only had Hua Mulan, Li Bai, Lady Sun, and Zhang Fei.

“Da Ming go and pressure Lady Sun, don’t let her clear the minion wave!”Lu Qi calmly commanded, “Be careful of Zhang Fei’s roar to blow the minions away.”

“Kill Lady Sun!” Da Ming shouted his throat hoarse.

Da Qing: “Watch my Ukyo’s newly improved version of Eastern swordsmanship~”

“He has resurrection!.”

“It’s okay! Go, go, go!!”

[Ukyo Tachibana] killed [Lady Sun]

Da Qing: “My brothers, I am invincible! Come one, kill one. Come two, kill two!”

“I only have one drop of health left. I’m retreating.” Da Ming was tanking the damage from the turret and the enemies, even if Xiang Yu was tanky, he could not take that much damage, “Qi Ge, help me tank!”

Lu Qi: “I’m going to use my ult!”

“Da Ming, buy the Overlord! The Overlord’s Platemail to recover your health.”

“They’re not coming out!” Da Qing was a little rushed. As a squishy, he did not dare to turret dive to kill LZ, but Xiao Qiao was respawning soon. Xiao Qiao was fast at clearing the minion wave. In the late game, one wave of her fan was enough to take down the minion wave. By then, it would be tough to push the nexus!

Seeing that the victory in their mouth was about to fly away, Da Qing even wanted to sacrifice himself to turret dive LZ, but he saw Gui Guzi, who had been silent throughout the match — — Yu Yue, once again sped up and flashed into the respawn area to pull the enemy.

Da Qing: “!!!”

This familiar operation!

Wasn’t it the same as that last relegation match’s game: changing Wolf Totem for Moon Soul, diving into the fountain, and pulling the carry? 

Although the carry was seconds from respawning, it did not stop Yu Yue from pulling the three people together. Lu Qi followed up with his ult and instantly killed them.

[Chang’e] killed [Li Bai]

[Chang’e] double killed [Hua Mulan]

Instincts will forever be faster than the brain. Having been accustomed to cooperating with Yu Yue, Da Qing, and Ling Chen seeing that Yu Yue had charged forward, followed up with the damage without much thinking.

[Ukyo Tachibana] killed [Zhang Fei]

[Aced!]

When the game announcement of JK achieving an ‘aced’ rang throughout the stadium, the fans of JK and casual onlookers at the scene could not help but stand up and let out shouts of amazement:

“Missy’s amazing!!!”

Many people were not at the live scene during the relegation match. They did not expect that Yu Yue could repeat the same game operation as the previous time, satisfying their long-cherished wish.

Watching it live was definitely more shocking.

Online, rainbow fart^[1]These are praises. Praises relating to Yu Yue started to appear:

[Changing Wolf Totem for golden armor, pulling the carry in the fountain. This move is indeed amazing! From today onwards, I’m a fan of the little missy.]

[Ahhhhhh!! She was so silent throughout the match till that last part where she forcibly initiated a team fight. Heavens, how can there be a support like her? She’s basically my dream support!]

[The nation owes me an Eden.]

[Who says women couldn’t be as good as men?]

[Exciting, so exciting! Just with this move of changing Wolf Totem for Moon Soul, the price for the ticket was worth it!]

[So, is KPL going to have one more meme?]

If the others had gone crazy, JK’s members would not know. After all, they were still wearing their headphones and could not hear the noises outside.

But, Da Qing, who just got a kill and was crazily destroying the nexus, knew that his heart was still palpitating non-stop. He could not help being gloomy, “Eden, you must be selling insurance in your past life.”

Lu Qi threw out an enhanced attack, destroying LZ’s blue nexus just right before Xiao Qiao respawned.

Following the special effects of the nexus exploding, the word ‘Victory’ appeared on the phones of JK’s members. Yu Yue glanced at her screen before she removed her headphones and turned her puzzled gaze towards Da Qing, “What makes you say that?”

Da Qing gritted his teeth, “Your habit of pulling people whenever you see them reminds me of those responsible and diligent insurance agents, making one love and hate them.”

It turned out that it was because she was too rapid when initiating that team fight. 

Yu Yue did not justify her actions, but laughed softly and apologized, “I’m sorry.”

Although she did it for the good of the team, no matter what, her actions could cause the team rhythm to come apart, causing a certain amount of damage. After all, diving into the fountain was too risky.

She really should apologize.

Da Ming said, “Good job! But next time, you could tell us in advance so we can cooperate better.”

Yu Yue: “The timing was too tight, I thought that it was a good opportunity, so I just went up, I didn’t have time to send a signal.”

The opportunity could be missed during the time Yu Yue was sending the signal.

After a period of silence, Da Ming carefully asked, “Eden, you know that we’re wearing headphones, right?”

Hearing what he said, the rest of the team also started to recall that throughout the whole game, Yu Yue rarely spoke, it was the rest who were blindly shouting. Yu Yue was silent and basically used the game’s signal system to communicate the whole game.

Including reporting the location of the enemy, cooldown of the skills, and team fight preparations.

Except for that last team fight, they felt very comfortable and did not feel out of sorts.

In short, Yu Yue just did not talk, but she did everything that needed to be done well.

“Missy’s very different from her normal self when she’s gaming.” Ling Chen could not help but say, “She’s even more aloof than Qi Ge when she’s playing.”

“Do you think that everyone is like you? Just cause you have a mouth so you talk nonstop?” Lu Qi also took off his headphones and rubbed his ears. This group of teammates was too noisy, even more so than the cicada in the summer, so much that his ears hurt. “Yu Yue, try to get used to communicating tactics and integrate into the team.”

Yu Yue answered with a promise.

If Qi Ge and her teammates had not trusted her in that last fight, following her in her charge, that brilliant operation would not have been so legendary, in fact, it could even send her teammates to their deaths.

“Let’s go. I want to go to the toilet,” Lu Qi stood up first.

The rest also stood up, “Let’s go. Let’s go.”

Yu Yue hesitated for a moment and finally chose to follow after them.

Integration into the team begins with collective action.

Unknown to her, Yu Yue’s confused expression was captured by the director and was seen very clearly by the audience below the stage. Then, this group of people could not resist sending something.

[JK’s regular routine: Going to the toilet as a team.]

[Missy’s foolish expression is so cute hahahaha, she was clearly conflicted but she still went with them.]

[Who am I? Where am I? Why am I following them?]

[Eden’s playstyle is steady with a little mischief, and occasionally she would be over the top, but in real life, she’s a confused cutie. What kind of heavenly character setting is this? Yue Zai^[2]崽Zai: child, mommy loves you!!]

[The reoccurrence of Wolf Totem changing to golden armor, I’m dead.]

There was another wave of rainbow fart blown for Lu Qi.

[What a surprise, Time actually knows how to play Chang’e.]

[To be honest, when I saw him take out Chang’e, I thought he was gonna be a tank. As everyone knows, Qi Ge can only perform when he’s playing mage assassins, his other heroes are all like ATM machines for the enemies. But, for this match, his performance was really not bad.]

[This subject is tired of saying he’s amazing.]

[He must have practiced secretly. The off-season period was so long, they had also fought so many practice matches, it’s impossible to let Qi Ge play Diao Chan, Wan’er, Yuan Ge, and Luna all the time. Besides, the previous season had exposed their problem of a shallow hero pool, they definitely would have done something about it.]

[O.O Is that so? But in the spring regular season, Qi Ge didn’t use it. Even in the relegation match he also used mage assassin. They couldn’t possibly be still hiding this at that time right?]

Hiding their tactics was to catch their opponents off guard, but at that time, JK was already at their relegation match. If they fail to enter the secondary league, what’s the use of hiding their strategy and catching others unprepared? If Lu Qi had any hidden cards under his sleeves, he would have already used them at that time!

According to this logic, during the spring championship, Lu Qi would still be that hero spoon that could only play mage assassins, and now for the first match of the play-offs, in a short time span of ten-twenty days, he had a mage that he could barely play — — Chang’e?

This was a good thing.

But— —

[One is not enough, right? I have to say that Chang’e really works very well as an alternative hero that Qi Ge can play when he cannot play mage assassins. Close range, tanky, high damage, but how useful is one hero? Additionally, Chang’e is not a perfect hero, there are lots of heroes that can counter her, like Diao Chan, Garo, and Lu Bu.]

[If he wants to go further, he has to cultivate from a hero spoon to a hero pool.]

[Like QAQ’s Qing Long^[3]青龙: Azure Dragon is good, I can’t think of what other heroes that he can’t play.]

Presently, the commentators on stage were replaying the highlights of the game. During the highlight of Lu Qi getting a double kill with a silver of health, the commentator had to make a comment, “Chang’e is too strong in the current meta. Once she’s fed, she’s unstoppable.”

“Why would you say that?”

“Her first and second skills require no mana and her CDs are short, making it such that at any time, she would have skills to use, guaranteeing her damage output. So long as she has a blue buff and her mana regen can keep up, she’ll be a perpetual motion machine in the team fights.”

Commentator A was not convinced, “Chang’e is not that strong, she can be easily countered. Qi Ge was able to carry this match because he had a comfortable time farming. The support and jungler were orbiting around him the whole match, ensuring his growth. Think about it, leading ahead by two to three thousand gold, who wouldn’t be a daddy?”

Moreover, this was a Chang’e with a mage build!

She was tanky and could do damage, basically the daddy amongst the daddies!

Commentator B: “Looks like JK has a new strategic setup. Though previously it was also a mid-jungler-support comp,  I don’t know why but I feel like the current mid-jungler-support comp had upgraded. As for exactly what had changed, I can’t say.”

“Mid-jungler-support comp 2.0,” Commentator C joked.

“Yes, that’s how it feels.” Commentator A smiled at the audience and said, “Sometimes, when the team members have rotated, their tactics will also change. But I have absolutely not expected that JK’s core would still be their mage and that their team comp had upgraded.”

Commentator B: “Eden, this support, is pretty good. She’s really not bad. When that dive into the fountain to pull the enemies reappeared, you should have seen how the audience went crazy. The current meta needs supports who can initiate team fights. Although Eden is a female, she can play Gui Guzi and Su Lie who can forcibly initiate team fights really well, very suitable for JK.”

“JK’s two supports both can play Gui Guzi very well, they can battle online in the future.”

Yu Yue did not wish to battle. She would rather spend the time to adjust and coordinate with her teammates.

Fortunately, this was just a joke. Even if the commentators organized a solo battle, the fans would also not agree.

Why compare? Be it a black cat or a white cat, so long as it can catch a mouse, it’s a good cat. Similarly, a support that can lead the team towards victory, is the best support.
