I Heard that You are Dissatisfied (e-Sport)
Chapter 14 - Lin Ao is fierce
​
In this replay, whether it was criticized or praised, Lin Ao was the most named.
In contrast, although Bai Changshan and Lu Yu have many details that need to be improved in hero operation, they have a very good control in terms of coordination and rhythm.
  After the review, Lu Lian gave Lin Ao homework: develop a good habit of placing eyes, and memorize every routine eye position; use the transport plane rationally, and don't keep forgetting the transport plane in the field; the most important point is to communicate more with teammates.
Lin Ao stared at Lu Lian for a long time after hearing the last request.
But Lu Lian was like a reinforced defensive tower. He was not afraid of his stare at all. After being watched for a long time, he raised his eyebrows and responded to him.
Lu Lian's eyebrows were stern, but when he raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, the smile that fell between his brows was like the spring breeze in February, blowing slowly into people's hearts without rushing or slowing down.
Lin Ao's heart skipped half a beat for no reason.
Lin Ao admitted defeat in advance, and he scratched his hair in frustration, saying, "I understand now. I will set up wards properly, use the transport effectively, and communicate more."
Lu Lian looked at Lin Ao's dejected appearance and raised his lips slightly.
Then, Lu Lian assigned tasks to the other two.
Bai Changshan had transitioned from support to jungle and was not very proficient with the commonly used jungle heroes. However, he was proactive, and after Lu Lian pointed out his issues, he voluntarily said, "Boss, don't worry, I will practice popular jungle heroes more."
Every year, the major tournaments of "TLD: Legendary Land" would collect the appearance rates of various heroes. Although the game had over a hundred heroes, their treatment in matches varied greatly. The most popular heroes were the version heroes, meaning the relatively strong heroes in the current game version. On the other hand, there were weak heroes, which might have a 0% appearance rate throughout the year in competitive matches.
Version heroes were always the ones fought over during the banning phase, where teams competed to secure them.
This year, the top three jungle heroes with the highest appearance rate were Hunter, Chess Master, and Santa Claus.
Upon hearing Bai Changshan's words, Lu Lian consoled him, "No need to worry. I've seen your previous match records. You like using Yan Wang, Meng Po, and Prince Bai Ma for jungle. You can continue trying them."
"Boss... Are you sure?" Bai Changshan was shocked. In their youth training team, they only played their designated positions during training. However, outside of training, they would also try playing in other roles. No matter how poorly they performed in those roles, the coach turned a blind eye. But whenever Bai Changshan played jungle with Yan Wang, Meng Po, or Prince Bai Ma, the coach would scold him to the skies.
"But none of these heroes are strong jungle heroes," Bai Changshan said, still carrying the psychological shadow left by the coach, even though he had left the ML team. He was careful to follow the coach's teachings.
"I'm sure," Lu Lian said seriously, "In my opinion, heroes are not strong or weak."
This statement wasn't directed at Lin Ao, but when Lin Ao heard it, his body trembled slightly. Beneath his slender eyelids, it seemed as though a dense sea of thoughts was surging.
He remembered three years ago, when he was reading Wizard's guide on the Four Seas Dragon King, someone left a comment below the guide:
"Four Seas Dragon King? Forget it. This hero is a cold benchwarmer in competitions, with a 0% appearance rate, and players don't like using it either. Such a garbage hero belongs in the sewer. The real pros should write guides on popular heroes instead."
Wizard, who never replied to comments, responded for the first time and left a message other than the guide on the official forum.
"Every hero is a shining legend in 'TLD Legendary Land.'"
Lin Ao licked his dry lips, his long eyelashes drooping slightly, hiding the intense emotions swirling in his deep black eyes.
As for Bai Changshan and Lu Yu, they exchanged a glance.
Strong or weak heroes?
This contradicted what they had learned before.
In their previous coach's eyes, the key to victory in the game was: version, version, and version.
Important matters must be said three times.
Having a version hero meant winning half the battle.
Now, Lu Lian had opened another door for them.
Lu Yu had a more open-minded attitude, thinking they should practice first, regardless of the approach.
Bai Changshan, however, was straightforward. He thought of something and blurted it out, asking, "But, Lu..."
He scratched his head, feeling that whether he called Lu Zong or Coach Lu, it felt a little strange because Lu Lian was not just the boss; he did coaching work but was not just a coach.
"Lao, Lao Ban." Lu Yu glanced at Bai Changshan and picked up the thread, helping him out, "Every hero indeed has its strengths, but version heroes represent the choices of most people. That's the reality."
Bai Changshan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Yes, yes, when I use Yan Wang in the jungle, it's not the opponents who worry me, but my teammates, and the coach scolds me like crazy. I've tried using Meng Po for jungle, and all I wanted to do was delete that hero from the options."
"Is that so?" Lu Lian's tone and expression showed a faint indifference.
Lin Ao saw that Lu Lian's thoughts were being questioned, but Lu Lian actually said calmly, "Really?" Yes, yes, yes, it's a ghost!
He didn't even think about it and scolded, "You guys can play whatever you want. Why so much nonsense? You're dissatisfied with any hero? Let's play a game, and I'll show you whether they are weak or not."
One had to admit that Lin Ao was quite capable of being a captain.
And he didn't rely on "authority" but on "reasoning."
Bai Changshan: "..."
Lu Yu: "..."
Lu Lian smiled. Looking at Lin Ao's fierce look, he felt a little softer in his heart.
Lu Lian said again: "You guys practice casually for the past few days, wait for the bot lane team to be in place, and then practice the lineup."
Bai Changshan and Lu Yu exchanged a look. Lu Yu had no objection, and everything was arranged by Lu Lian. Bai Changshan frowned first but then suddenly became happy. Don't look at him hesitating just now. In fact, he really wanted to play with these things in his heart. Show routine hero. But the shadow given to him by the previous coach was too great, which made him have great self-doubt.
Bai Changshan happily grabbed Lu Yu and said, "I can play casually now, hahaha! I will not worry about being scolded by the coach that I will have nightmares at night."
Lin Ao deliberately threatened: "You think well. But is the winning rate is too low you will be punished."
After arranging everything, Lu Lian called Lin Ao aside.
Lin Ao felt that there must be nothing good for Lu Lian to make a fuss, so he took the lead and snorted angrily, "Are you telling me not to think about beating up my teammates again?"
He thought Lu Lian would be "biting back" because he was always calling him a fake.
Little did he know that Lu Lian smiled and said, "No, I think the way you were just now was quite good."
"..." Lin Ao's face turned a bit warm.
"I have something else to attend to. I'll leave now. Hua Zhiheng will come to watch your training during this empty time. Look after yourselves." Lu Lian paused, his gaze stopping on Lin Ao's fair face, and unintentionally softened his tone, "Little captain, take care."
"Captain is captain, why add the word 'little'?" Lin Ao grumbled dissatisfiedly.
Lu Lian smiled but didn't explain.
Because in his heart, Lin Ao was indeed a little captain.
A bit fierce, a bit stubborn, strong, and adorable.
In the afternoon, Hua Zhiheng came to take over the training for the three players. Compared to Lu Lian's calm demeanor, Hua Zhiheng was the type who could hold a handful of melon seeds, stand behind the players, and watch them play games. Whenever his players were suppressed, he cursed the opponents; when his players suppressed the opponents, he laughed at them for being noobs.
In short, he cursed the opponents no matter what.
As long as Hua Zhiheng was around, the training room would never be quiet.
He alone is equivalent to a cheerleading squad, and he is a good hand at creating the atmosphere.
Bai Changshan was also a lively person. With him and Hua Zhiheng together, they could do a comedy show on the spot.
As for Lu Yu, he was used to it. Sitting beside Bai Changshan, the two sources of noise circulate in 3D around his ears, but he remained calm and steady as a clock.
As for Lin Ao, he seemed to be a little absent-minded, and automatically blocked the two of them.
A few days later, in the training room, Bai Changshan and Lu YU was in the double row, and Lin Ao was swimming in the training mode. Every now and then, he got up to pour water, or got up to go to the bathroom, and after a while, he went to Hua Zhiheng to grab a handful of melon seeds there.
Since pouring water and going to the bathroom will pass through Bai Changshan, which is behind Hua Zhiheng, Hua Zhiheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Lin Ao, I see that you have gone to the bathroom a few times, are you uncomfortable?" If you feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital, don't endure it."
Lin Ao's body stiffened, and he said, "No, I'm in good health."
Lin Ao, who was in very good health, just walked away. Then came back, hesitated for a while, and asked, "Where's Lu Lian?"
"Him?" Hua Zhiheng said with a smile, "His family has a big business, and there are so many things to deal with. The team is just one of his properties. He can't be here every day. Even if he wants to be here every day, his father won't allow it."
"During this period, he is here personally only because the team has just been established. When the team is on the right track, I will accompany you most of the time."
Hua Zhiheng said kindly: "Don't worry, Father Hua will take good care of you."
Lin Ao rolled his eyes at Hua Zhiheng, not even interested in flirting with him.
Lin Ao pursed his lips, only caring about one thing: "Then he won't come?"
Hua Zhiheng finally tasted it. He showed an expression of watching the show, and said, "If you miss him, I can tell him for you. Anyway, didn't you keep calling him a fake and yelling at him to delete his account? Why are you reluctant to part with him in just a few days?"
Lin Ao was stuck for a while, and said awkwardly: "Who, who can't bear it, I feel annoyed when I see him as a counterfeit, it would be better not to come."
"Oh? I see, if he bother you so much, then I'll ask him to hang around the team less in the future, so as not to affect the emotions of our team members." Hua Zhiheng took out his mobile phone, looking like he was always thinking about the physical and mental health of the team members.
Lin Ao: "..."
After a few seconds, Lin Ao said firmly, "No."
"Eh?"
"If he doesn't come, who shall I beat? You let him come, our business is not over yet."
Hua Zhiheng rolled his eyes and smiled ambiguously.
Lin Ao thought about it, but he was still a little uneasy, and emphasized again: "You must let him come."
After he finished speaking, he returned to his seat as if he had completed some big task.
As soon as he was seated, he heard Hua Zhiheng's burst of laughter coming from behind him.
Lin Ao knew that he was played by Hua Zhiheng, and he didn't care that Hua Zhiheng was the coach, so he got up and beat him up.
During the whole process, Bai Changshan and Lu Yu have been watching, but they didn't help anyone. They also ate a lot of Hua Zhiheng's melon seeds while watching the play.
In the end, Hua Zhiheng sent a wechat chat, complaining to Lu Lian: Lin Ao is so fierce, team bully, beat people.
Lu Lian only replied, "You're so cheap, you messed with him."
Hua Zhiheng was crying, look, is this still a human? Where did his mind go?
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Ao received a game invitation from test account123.
TestAccount123: Wait, play a game.
lion180: Aren't you going to handle big business? And now it's working time, can you still play games?
Lu Lian's voice sounded in the team's voice, and through the headset, the electrical noise added a bit of laziness to his magnetic voice.
Lu Lian took it for granted, "I'm the boss."
Lin Ao: "..."
Look how bad this guy is.
