The viewers in the stream were utterly shocked by Li Fan's words.
It was simply too ruthless.
What kind of ruthless madman was this? Putting aside whether he was actually an orphan, this scorched-earth tactic of calling them "dad" was something they were seeing for the first time.
So the moment that sentence ended, the stream flooded with question marks, densely packed, covering the entire screen.
[??????????]
[??????????]
[Is the streamer a bit outrageous? Has he always been this abstract?]
[Just got here, didn't quite get it. Can someone well-endowed explain?]
[Simply put, the streamer is a ruthless man—he's even cursing himself! Doesn't "orphan" mean having no parents? He's calling us dad, isn't that saying we're dead?]
[Hahaha, honestly, a streamer with this much personality does have entertainment value. The question is, if you want to be a streamer, why go pro and disgust people?]
"How am I disgusting people by playing pro? I'm still a substitute without any chances to play yet. Oh... EDG has a match today too. Should be done by now, let me check the results."
After this segment, the hostile comments in the stream noticeably decreased.
The main reason was that professional players streamed relatively infrequently at this stage, and when they got flamed, they basically just endured it.
Even players at the level of Uzi and Factory would only silently ban people.
But what no one expected was that Li Fan, this complete nobody who hadn't even made the starting roster, would dare to clash head-on with the viewers like this?
They couldn't help but find it amusing. Being so ruthless that he'd even curse himself—it had decent entertainment value indeed.
They wanted to see what else he'd pull next.
A League professional player actually signing up for QQ Speed's SSC Spring Tournament...
Wasn't this just a joke?
As Li Fan spoke, he opened the League of Legends Pro League official website.
The top headline was EDG being easily defeated by RNG, taken down with a clean 2-0.
Li Fan recalled... this match was mainly due to the bot lane gap. The disparity in the bot lane was simply too great. After all, Zet was a mid laner by trade; having transitioned to bot lane, being able to learn Ashe was already incredibly difficult. He could hold steady against ordinary players, but facing Uzi, the pressure was simply too immense.
Both games produced lane gaps. Factory's signature level-two gank bot was completely useless. Uzi took two MVPs and carried the series.
No wonder the stream felt more crowded than usual, and everyone was so heated—they were looking for a punching bag.
Of course, he could say these things, but there was no need.
His system mainly obtained Learning Points by playing other games to gain extra feedback, not by attacking others to make them resent him.
Besides, he was still on EDG right now. Saying such things would easily make him a target for all.
"What a shame, but our record is still pretty good. Five wins, two losses, ranked second in Group B. Keep it up, guys. Adjust your condition and get your revenge in the upcoming playoffs."
As the professional scene grew larger, the LPL had also split into Groups A and B, conducting intra-group double round-robin Bo3s and inter-group single round-robin Bo1s.
Since RNG was in Group A, after today's match, if they wanted revenge, they could only wait until the playoffs.
However... EDG still couldn't get their revenge in the playoffs. Top, mid, and bot each underperformed once, and they were ultimately swept 3-1 by RNG.
The problems exposed were still very numerous.
In the Summer Split, iBoy finally reached the age where he could compete. Winning the Summer Split championship was merely false prosperity.
At the World Championship, EDG was exposed once again.
Factory seemed to have had his Dao heart shattered, beginning a long hiatus.
Closing the webpage, Li Fan opened QQ Speed and immediately created a room.
"Is anyone volunteering who thinks they can stomp me? Come in for a 1v1. If not, I'll start the tutorial mode directly."
The moment these words left his mouth, how could the viewers in the stream possibly endure it?
They all rolled up their sleeves and logged into Speed at the first opportunity.
"Of course, if you want to 1v1 me, you have to be my fan. You don't need to spend money on gifts. Just send ten free Tiger Feeds to get a fan badge. As long as you can beat me, I'll directly give you five thousand Q Coins, which can be cashed out."
This made things even more intense. Gifts started flooding in like crazy.
After all, quite a few people found Li Fan unpleasant and wanted to teach him a lesson, not to mention they could take away a five-thousand reward if they won.
Li Fan really wasn't talking big.
Mainly because his parallel world self, as a professional player, had stats under the system interface that absolutely crushed ordinary people, not to mention he had techniques that even many current QQ Speed pros didn't know.
So he wasn't even afraid of professional players... how could he possibly be afraid of people in a stream?
Host: Li Fan
Pro ID: Unreal
Reaction: 83
Hand Speed: 83
Learning Points: 330
Very concise and clear.
Champion Pool: Five-star heroes: blank, four-star LeBlanc, three-star Malphite...
Then came a large number of two-star mid lane champions. Malphite came built-in, and it was hard to understand why there was a Malphite in the mid lane pool. Perhaps the parallel world's him liked playing nuke Malphite.
As for LeBlanc, she was a four-star champion Li Fan had grinded out during this time.
This was exactly what Learning Points were used for.
Selected champion solo training and match simulation training.
The former only required fifty Learning Points to start a session, but match simulation training cost an astronomical five hundred points. It really took a long time to save up enough to start one.
It was under these circumstances that LeBlanc was put into a match training session for five hundred points, then thrown into endless match training.
After waking up, LeBlanc had directly crossed from two-star into the four-star threshold.
According to Li Fan's guess, two-star should be the minimum requirement to become a pro, three-star belonged to the league's mainstays, and four-star was probably world-class level.
However, he hadn't had a chance to test it out yet...
Of course, there was also a large group of rational people.
[Stop sending gifts. With that performance just now, can you really beat him? Isn't this just giving away gifts for nothing?]
[Sigh, you people are too naive. The people entering the fan group are almost at five hundred now. Looks like they'll need to open a second group at this rate.]
But this had no effect. After all, many people really did have free gifts—just ten Tiger Feeds. Those without free gifts only needed to spend one yuan.
Then they could try for a shot at five thousand yuan.
They couldn't see any of the other conditions; they only saw the five thousand.
Li Fan had long since prepared a second fan group.
"Those with fan badges, contact the streamer account in the backend. I'll pull you into the group immediately."
In no time at all, the number of people with fan badges went from just over four hundred to over six hundred.
In other words, half the people in the stream had equipped Li Fan's fan badge.
The admin in the backend, watching this scene, couldn't help but give a thumbs-up.
He really was a damn genius!
Maybe he shouldn't have gone pro at all; he should've just become a full-time streamer!
