Of course, the response on Kuaishou and Douyin still wasn’t that astonishing, but the moment it was uploaded to his Huya space, it was drowned in comments.

【No way, bro. You’re actually doing QQ Speed tutorials? I thought you were joking. So decisive—say you’ll do it and you really do it!】

【Fucking awesome! QQ Speed actually has a move like release-forward nitro-locking? I’ve been playing for three years and even I didn’t know.】

【Three years makes you an old player? Then you’re really not old enough. Wasn’t the old drift-locking technique basically like this? It’s just that after it got banned I barely played anymore. Didn’t expect it could still be used? Looks like I have to download QQ Speed and take a look.】

【He’s really teaching? I thought Unreal was joking. Didn’t expect he really doesn’t care about this stuff? Is EDG not going to do anything?】

【I’m seriously dying of laughter now. A League of Legends pro player is actually doing QQ Speed tutorials?】

【Tch, don’t you people know to look past the phenomenon and see the essence? All I can say is Unreal is a real man. He knows his League of Legends skill isn’t anything special, so he doesn’t make League tutorials. This noob is actually pretty responsible. If he ended up teaching a feeder Yasuo or some fishtail Riven, that’d be four victims on the scene.】

【Honestly, when you think about it from that angle, it actually makes sense. Unreal’s QQ Speed skill is at least seven or eight levels higher than his League skill. That’s really not an exaggeration. Watching him run in the SSC Spring League is like watching Guan Yu admire flowers.】

【Huh? What the hell? How is a League of Legends pro player participating in the QQ Speed SSC Spring League?】

Quite a few people felt dizzy when they saw that comment.

Because… this was even more outrageous.

After all, a tutorial video was just a tutorial video. But if he had actually gone and participated in a professional tournament, then the meaning was completely different.

This really was somewhat unexpected—an even more wildly imaginative turn.

【Signing up for the SSC Spring League is actually very simple. You just need to pass the online review, then meet the map-running requirements.】

【The online matches are still relatively easy. It’s just advancing round by round through points. Since it only just started, there must be a lot of trash players. Once he runs into real pros later, he’ll definitely get stomped.】

【Heh, I haven’t seen any pro player run Rose Love in 1 minute 30 seconds with a basic kart. Anyone who wants to learn QQ Speed techniques can follow him. Hidden gem streamer.】

The effect of Li Fan’s streaming over the past month or so was beginning to show. After all, everyone had seen it with their own eyes.

He hadn’t streamed a single match of League of Legends, while he streamed QQ Speed every single day. When he signed up for the SSC Spring League, people originally thought he was doing some absurd meme content, but they hadn’t expected that he actually had skill—and that his skill was very strong.

Many of those who had followed the crowd in cursing him slowly began to change their minds. After all, Li Fan was just a nobody in EDG, a tiny little substitute.

He didn’t even have a chance to go onstage…

Under these circumstances, attacking him was ultimately rather inappropriate.

If he wanted to slack off, then let him slack off. His coach hadn’t said anything, and his club hadn’t said anything either.

To put it simply, the current traffic still couldn’t compare with esports’ Year One.

There still hadn’t been a situation where fans ran the team. Even WE, the team currently most demanding of its fans, wasn’t that ridiculous.

But to a certain extent, it was understandable. After all, WE’s operations leaned more toward profit. They had to sell merchandise to fans; the more they sold, the more money they made.

Because of this, they were also the only team at this stage that publicly announced their data purely in terms of earnings.

Although they were poor… that poverty was relative. Compared with other teams backed by capital, they truly couldn’t compete; the gap was extremely obvious.

However, the WE 2.0 roster assembled this year seemed to have something to it.

Because no one had expected their regular season start to be this good. They had already easily secured first place in Group B.

This genuinely surprised people.

WE’s ancient fans were also returning one after another because of the club’s results.

Mainly because the leftover fans of the old WE were still around.

After all, the LPL’s first world championship back then had been won by them, even if that world championship wasn’t the World Finals championship.

But at that time, whenever WE was mentioned, someone would say they were the pride of Chinese esports.

It was just that, slowly… because certain groups liked to strip others of their nationality, slapping the big hat of “if you don’t support an LPL team, you’re unpatriotic” onto them.

And because the gap between domestic players and players from other regions was astonishingly large.

Certain mid laners were still studying how to make other people’s girlfriends get abortions, while Faker had already won five championships.

Certain little dwarfs, in order to raise their own core status and become crownless top-tier ADs leeching off crowned ones, liked to remote-control the jungler and start palace intrigue.

Don’t tell me he really thinks changing his name lets him squeeze into the ranks of first-tier ADs?

Jiumeng is still that same Jiumeng.

Wanting to be mentioned in the same breath as Ruler, JackeyLove, Viper, and Guma—he truly has no self-awareness at all.

Ruler is the S7 champion FMVP, the strongest mercenary on the Golden Road.

JackeyLove was the LPL’s super rookie at seventeen, reaching his peak the moment he appeared.

Viper was Griffin’s top mercenary from the very beginning.

Going further down the list, even Uzi, despite having plenty of “fathers,” isn’t someone that little dwarf can leech off.

And under these circumstances, he still starts palace intrigue?

All one could say was that once you compared goods side by side, LCK players seemed even purer.

So you really couldn’t blame others for liking teams and players from other regions.

The moment Li Fan started his stream, five or six hundred people instantly flooded into the live room.

That speed truly surprised Li Fan.

Previously, when he first started streaming, only one or two hundred people would come in, and he would have to stream for ten or twenty minutes before reaching this number.

As for yesterday, Li Fan felt that had been purely accidental, supported by many coincidences.

Because he had played a QQ Speed SSC Spring League match.

Then EDG had just so happened to lose their match.

Under those circumstances, he, the one neglecting his proper duties, had crashed right into it.

Then the solo duel tournament held afterward, with a five-thousand-yuan prize, really did have strong appeal, which was why he had managed to reach over a thousand viewers.

What was going on today?

He glanced at the bullet comments, only to discover that they were actually discussing the tutorial video he had posted today.

They had all come to learn drift-locking from him.

The trial tutorial video he uploaded today had such good results?

That was somewhat unexpected.

“If you want to learn, you just need to follow the streamer. I’ll also teach while streaming. Everyone can just watch in the live room. Of course, I’ll also try to produce the follow-up tutorial videos as quickly as possible.”

“Huh? The streamer really has no intention of switching careers to become a QQ Speed pro player. Aside from QQ Speed, I’m also very good at other games, such as CS, CF, and Heroes of Three Kingdoms. I also know a thing or two about Dungeon Fighter. If you want to watch, I can stream them for everyone.”

During the period when Li Fan was streaming, discussions on the major platforms also grew hotter and hotter.

Combined with yesterday’s popularity, the two overlapped, and Li Fan actually made it onto trending searches again.
