Rong Yi fought in the room for a whole day and felt that people really have unlimited potential when angry – his winning rate today was higher than usual, indicating that he was in a good state.
In the afternoon, he came out to eat and sat opposite Xiao Yin. Xiao Yin calmly asked him, “Do you want to play duo queue tonight?”
Rong Yi casually agreed, “Sure.”
After finishing their meal, Rong Yi sat in the same spot as yesterday – facing away from Xiao Yin and sitting in front of the window. Xiao Yin sat behind him, and he covered the side of his face facing the camera with tape.
“Am I streaming?” Xiao Yin asked behind him.
Rong Yi replied with a sound of “Mm-hmm,” and then heard Xiao Yin make some adjustments before his strange, hoarse voice rang out again.
“Hello everyone, today I’m playing duo queue with my teammate.”
“I didn’t stream yesterday because I was also playing duo queue with him.”
Xiao Yin answered the questions from the audience in the stream with a calm voice that didn’t have much ups and downs.
Xiao Yin was not very talkative and was generally quiet in the stream, except for playing some songs. He liked to listen to instrumental music and occasionally played some more lively ones. His unique style made his stream always at the top of the charts. Every night, his popularity quickly rose to the top two on the platform.
When they entered the game and were selecting their heroes, Rong Yi went first and saw that Xiao Yin was last. He asked, “Do you want me to pick Xiao Yin for you?”
He was far from Xiao Yin’s microphone, and the stream could only vaguely hear a shadow.
A clear voice with a bit of a teenage tone.
“Wow!! The new mid-laner’s voice is so refreshing and nice to listen to! Is he a new player?”
“He’s the new mid-laner!! We have a mid-laner now!! Ahh!”
“As expected, the treatment is different. Brother Yin doesn’t duo queue with the other guys.”
…
“You pick your own hero, I’ll support,” said Xiao Yin.
Hearing him, Rong Yi didn’t hesitate and picked a hero for himself.
The others had already chosen their positions, and Xiao Yin picked a hero for support.
The hero he picked was the Earth Mother, also known as the Mother of the Earth, a T0-level support hero with hard crowd control that often leaves opponents unable to use their keyboard. Her weakness is that she relies heavily on Flash for mobility, making her vulnerable if her Flash is on cooldown.
Rong Yi was a god-level Earth Mother player himself, and he asked, “Do you want to switch? Do you want to play carry instead?”
“No, I’ll support you,” replied Xiao Yin calmly.
Rong Yi looked at their team composition and saw that it wasn’t a problem.
The hero that he picked, Li, had high burst damage and mobility, and could also play as a mid-lane carry. However, this playstyle was not very popular anymore, as most players preferred to play with an AD Carry in the bottom lane or a jungler who could farm in the jungle. Xiao Yin was one of the few who still played support.
Rong Yi took a quick glance at the live chat in Xiao Yin’s live stream.
All the comments were saying “I can’t believe Xiao Yin is playing support.”
“The treatment is different for Brother Yin. He doesn’t duo queue with the other guys.”
“Could it be that he’s playing K-Tou-style Earth Mother? I remember there was a pro player who got all the kills with Earth Mother once, who was it again…”
“RS’s Easy, that’s him! It’s hilarious.”
The corner of Rong Yi’s mouth twitched. In that game they lost, they only got three kills as a team, and their bot lane was crushed. Later, it was only him who managed to find opportunities with his high HP, and he happened to get all three kills. He’s still being criticized for it.
Xiao Yin followed behind Rong Yi, controlling his character. At the beginning of the game, while they were waiting, Xiao Yin spoke indifferently, “Let the support get all the kills, the responsibility is on the ADC.”
Because their playstyle was aggressive and risky, VIT placed great emphasis on resource allocation and last-hitting for the ADC, to the point of being very strict.
Wherever Xiao Yin went, the strictest technical standards of the industry followed. No one refuted him.
As soon as he spoke, the direction of the barrage immediately changed, and even some people who were trying to create a wave of rhythm stopped.
“That’s right, E God’s support is truly unparalleled, no questions asked.”
“Brother Yin, did you follow E God? You met him in a game a few days ago, and you asked him for his friend contact, right!”
Xiao Yin’s face cleared up slightly. Rong Yi heard him shift back a bit and cross his arms as they waited for the game to start, and his sharp gaze turned to him.
“I already got his contact information.”
For some reason, as she listened, Rong Yi’s ears began to feel hot.
In this game, the enemy support played a non-standard position, and when the jungle passed by, Xiao Yin dove under the enemy tower at level one, controlled two enemies, and sacrificed himself, allowing Rong Yi to score two kills.
Rong Yi roamed to support, and he always followed to check vision and control the area carefully. Only when Rong Yi was feeling a bit reckless would he say, “Come over here, let’s get a kill.”
One time, the enemy jungle, Di Zi, thought he had escaped, repeatedly trying to recall in the same spot while taunting with emotes. Xiao Yin had no reaction, waiting until Rong Yi finished dealing with the other enemies before flashing in with his ultimate, controlling Di Zi and allowing Rong Yi to take him out.
“I accidentally entered the wrong live broadcast room? Is this really Brother Yin’s live broadcast room?”
“+1, he has all seven skills and can kill Di Zi with just a Q.”
“He’s been fed so well, with eight kills and four thousand more gold, they’re going to win easily this game.”
“Indeed, this is the combination of professional double ranking, amazing! But who is this mid laner? He can actually make Brother Yin willingly play support.”
“Do you remember that guy who mocked him on the way back last time? Brother Yin chased and killed him fourteen times!”
Throughout the game, Xiao Yin didn’t take a single kill, but stayed by Rong Yi’s side and helped her get assists.
Rong Yi played extremely well and enjoyed the game thoroughly.
In the second game, Xiao Yin picked first and chose Li, while the others made their picks. When it was time for Rong Yi to choose, only the jungle position was left, so he picked Yi.
Before the start of the game, the teammates can exchange heroes they have selected, so they switched heroes.
Rong Yi asked politely, “Do you want to switch?”
Xiao Yin replied, “Whatever works.”
He was too nice, and Rong Yi got a little carried away and didn’t switch, taking the jungle position and wandering around.
Xiao Yin played mid lane, but his role was similar to the previous game: scouting, ganking, and leaving the kills to Rong Yi.
Rong Yi’s ultimate skill was incredibly satisfying as it could easily take down enemies in its path. It was a long-range jump with flashing sword lights that ended with a powerful slash, providing great visual effects.
Although the hero was difficult to play due to its long pre-attack animation and inability to change directions, it didn’t diminish his coolness.
As soon as Rong Yi started racking up kills, his mood improved, and he whistled softly.
Just like the previous game, Rong Yi collected all the kills, and the chat room was filled with “666” praises.
Even the other live streamers were quiet, not daring to compete with their perfect cooperation.
“They could target just one of them, either Rong Yi or Xiao Yin, but couldn’t handle both of them at the same time.
The two of them teamed up, it was like a professional hit that no one could beat.
They played seven rounds together and in the final round, they happened to come across Wu Dao Gu, who was eager to climb the ranks.
Three minutes into the game, Rong Yi followed Xiao Yin to the enemy jungle to collect protection money.
Wu Dao Gu tried to sneak up on Rong Yi, but was killed by a counter-attack. He then saw the number of kills on Rong Yi’s score: “Damn! Xiao Yin, you’ve fed him so much! Four kills in three minutes!”
Barrage:
“This is what top lane is all about.”
“Top lane is like playing chess and fighting. After three minutes, you realize that your teammates are already guarding the high ground.”
“Wu Dao Gu.”
“Damn! Xiao Yin, you’ve fed him so much!”
The barrage formed a shape, and Rong Yi laughed as he took off his headphones.
Xiao Yin looked over and whispered, “Are you feeling better?”
Rong Yi didn’t hear clearly, just looked back and said, “Huh?”
A pair of peach blossom eyes shimmered with a slight curve, and his fair skin was marked by a shallow impression from the headphones.
He didn’t hear what Xiao Yin said and turned to look at the barrage. The barrage was still repeating.
“They said you played support very well and fed me well, boss.”
“Yeah.”
Looking back, noticing Xiao Yin’s gaze, he turned around and looked up and down before settling on his slender collarbone.
“Still a little bit more to go.”
