When a professional esports player reached the level of Seven Kings or above, not only would they be able to master their main role, but they would also be able to master the other roles. Compared to other players of the same level, the only thing they lacked was understanding and familiarity of the specific operations and skills of the other heroes in the other roles.
But in terms of awareness, every position was basically the same.
Therefore, Morning Star was not impressed by Lin Feng's ability to predict the opponent's jungler hero's farming route and even the time and location even though he was a mid laner.
Because if it were him, he should be able to do the same thing if he wanted to. It was just that there might be a slight difference in the degree and accuracy.
But what really shocked him was …
It was the train of thought and philosophy hidden behind a certain someone's calculations.
A mid.
Why?
Why would he include the calculation of the opponent's jungler's farming route and time and position into his own considerations from the very beginning?
Morning Star did not believe Lin Feng's nonchalant answer at all. Was it because one mid wasn't enough to kill Victor in this round? No, this was not just a simple training match.
Instead, it should be a style that had been adopted by a certain someone.
Perhaps this behavior had been completely integrated into someone's playstyle for an unknown period of time.
It was difficult.
Morning Star thought about the great effort and effort he had spent to improve his position as a mid, and he knew how much sweat and effort Lin Feng had to put in to reach a realm that was slightly stronger than him. Not to mention the fact that Lin Feng had to divide his attention to hone his understanding and mastery of other positions, including jungler, on top of this foundation.
It would almost double the difficulty of this training or even more.
This meant a huge and terrifying amount of training.
It meant that it was indescribably difficult.
This was what Morning Star truly found hard to believe and understand. What was the reason that made someone so abnormal that he squeezed out his energy to complete this kind of heaven-defying training?
After controlling his own Katarina to kill the opponent's Blind Monk, she turned and ran towards the opponent's blue buff jungle. At this moment, Lin Feng seemed to not notice his partner's shaken mood at all. His face was still calm and composed.
The reason …?
Someone's eyelids drooped slightly at this moment, and his expression couldn't be seen clearly.
Countless scenes of the past flashed through his mind like a flashing lantern.
…
"Back then, after losing that set of 'best-of-five' matches, Lin Feng blamed himself for a long time."
Number Five said softly as he stood at the back of the spectators. He looked at a certain someone's back with a hint of pity.
"You put all the blame on yourself."
"I feel that everything is because I'm not strong enough and I didn't consider enough, which is why I lost the championship trophy."
"Then … he became so extreme in his desire to become stronger."
Indeed.
It was precisely because of this almost abnormal and unreasonable sense of self-blame and guilt that a certain someone at that time began to try that terrifying and arduous training method that could not simply be described with the word "harsh".
He wasn't just targeting his main role as the mid laner.
He had also incorporated the duties of jungler, top laner, support, and ADC into his training.
What he was trying to achieve was to be able to play half of the jungler, half of the top laner, half of the ADC, and half of the support role at the same time as a mid laner.
Not only did he have to fight against his opponent as a mid laner, but he also had to split four-fifths of his attention into the thoughts of the other four roles. He had to take in all the habits and playstyles of the other four heroes, as well as countless complicated and terrifying amounts of information, and conduct the largest and most rigorous analysis and calculation.
In the end, he was able to single-handedly deal with all the possible strategies of his opponent, exposing all of his opponent's plans and calculations to his own calculations. Thus, he was able to easily destroy them one by one.
To put it simply, he had to achieve the goal of "one person being used as five."
Or in other words, a true 1v5.
Originally, in a team esports game like League of Legends, especially after entering the professional esports circle, it sounded almost like a fantasy story to think that one person could single-handedly deal with five people. Even a top professional esports player couldn't do it.
But …
However, there were still very few special exceptions to such fantasy-like behavior.
Lin Feng was one of them.
This was because his talent and realm were so strong that they could be said to be one of the few in the professional esports circle in the past and even now. More importantly, his hero pool was far from limited to the mid lane position. The mid lane of his main class could reach the realm of the Yonko, and the other top lane support ADC and jungler positions could also be played at a level that was not inferior to the Seven Kings in his hands.
Therefore, he was able to achieve something that other professional esports players didn't even dare to think about.
And there was another person.
It was the head of the Four Emperors from Korea's SSK team, F- Han Shihao.
"Lin Feng and that kid from Korea's SSK team are probably the only two heaven-defying existences in the esports circle right now."
No. 1 commented in a leisurely tone.
"But it's precisely because they have such a terrifying hero pool that no other professional esports player can match up to that innate advantage that both of them have the chance and potential to cross the highest threshold."
The "highest threshold" mentioned here.
It wasn't even the threshold of the Four Emperors that most players and even professional esports players recognized. Even Morning Star, who was half a step into the Four Emperors, was struggling to break through the threshold, but in reality, it still wasn't the theoretical limit of professional esports players.
But this wasn't strange.
Because in the entire professional esports circle, from the previous generation to the current generation, there had only been one person who had reached such a high level in the entire world among countless professional esports players.
The so-called Four Emperors and Seven Kings of today could only be considered juniors.
Back then, even in the previous generation where stars gathered and demons danced, someone as strong as Europe's most terrifying and mysterious Shadow Crow, someone as strong as Korea's previous dominating king of the esports circle, the man with the first "F" name, paled in comparison to that figure and was reduced to a supporting role.
So that man was the true living legend.
An immortal legend that still walked the esports circle.
Number Five's eyes sparkled as she looked at her fiancé beside her. Even though they had been together for many years, it still couldn't change the unconcealable admiration she had for the man in front of her.
Her lover.
From the past until now, he had always been the strongest. It had never changed.
As if sensing the gaze of his beautiful fiancée, No. 1 tilted his head slightly to meet her gaze. He smiled and gently brushed aside a few strands of hair on her forehead. Then, he looked at the distant arena again.
"I've gone too far."
"Just like the realm that Lin Feng and Korea's SSK are pursuing, other than hard work, they also need to have enough patience to wait for an opportunity."
"But —"
"Although it's too difficult to reach the end of the path of increasing one's strength, if it's just for a little guy like Ah Xing who is stuck at the half step into the Four Emperors realm …"
"As long as he successfully learns something that belongs to him, it won't be difficult to break through ~"
