Chapter 322: Live Stream Room Explodes with Viewers
The opponent clearly noticed the location of the card as well. Amumu walked directly to where the card would land and instantly unleashed his ultimate!
A massive golden zone appeared immediately. Under the effect of Curse of the Sad Mummy, all enemies in the area would be entangled.
Although Amumu's Q skill also had a stun effect, it was a non-targeted skill and relatively uncontrollable. After witnessing the Twisted Fate's slick movements, Amumu didn't dare take the risk, so he led with his ultimate!
At the same time, everyone else's non-targeted skills were all thrown toward the spot where the card was about to land, hoping to kill him instantly the moment he touched down.
But all the skills missed, because what flew over wasn't the Twisted Fate, but a golden statue identical to him.
"Ding!"
A crisp sound.
The Zhonya's Hourglass, commonly known as the golden statue, allowed the champion to become invulnerable and untargetable for 2.5 seconds, but the champion couldn't move, attack, cast spells, or use any abilities.
All the targeted skills and crowd-control ultimates smashed into the Twisted Fate's golden form, creating no splash at all.
When the golden statue ended, the Twisted Fate instantly activated Ghost to dodge Amumu's bandage toss, while simultaneously drawing a Gold Card to stun Garen, who was trying to charge in.
At the same time, all his teammates swarmed forward. With an economic disadvantage and having lost many crucial ultimates, the enemy team was already in disarray.
The Twisted Fate moved and attacked as if strolling through a garden, drawing one Gold Card after another, each like a death notice proclaiming the enemy's doom.
A Gold Card stunned the target, then he casually flung out three Wild Cards, precisely taking down the last enemy trying to flee.
"Triple Kill!"
The massive triple-kill icon appeared in the center of the screen. Everyone seemed to hear the Twisted Fate's slightly mocking laugh: "Today is my lucky day!"
With one triple kill, the enemy team of five was wiped out. The Twisted Fate and his teammates pushed forward in one go, destroying the enemy base, and the game ended.
Calmly rejecting eight friend requests, Chen Mo continued queuing up with Li Jingsi.
...
The bullet comments exploded. This Twisted Fate play left everyone stunned, especially the final golden statue landing, which made all viewers marvel.
"Holy crap! You can play Twisted Fate like this?"
"Why does it feel like his Twisted Fate deals so much damage? Gold Card plus Q skill plus passive, and he can one-shot squishies?"
"And Chen Mo's movements are so flexible, he's like a slippery eel, impossible to catch, and he keeps throwing cards at you!"
"What was the principle behind that last move? Can some expert explain?"
"Zhonya's Hourglass! Landing golden statue to bait out skills, I've learned something new! No way, I'm going to start a bot match right now to try it!"
"It feels like... Chen Mo planned this? He must have known everyone was saying Twisted Fate wasn't strong, so he showed us a Twisted Fate play? I've got a weird sense of déjà vu..."
"Yeah, back when Warcraft first came out, everyone complained that Humans and Night Elves were too weak, and he did the same thing!"
"So Chen Mo is starting another high-level tutorial? Hurry up and post on the forums, let everyone come watch. Serent is about to show off again!"
After this match ended, the news that Chen Mo was streaming League of Legends spread quickly across various forums and player groups.
Many players were puzzled. Wasn't it said that Chen Mo was a noob at League of Legends?
How could he even pull off such a difficult champion like Twisted Fate?
Driven by curiosity, these players flooded into Chen Mo's live stream room.
After all, it was the New Year holiday, and many people had nothing to do. Watching League of Legends streams and learning high-level techniques was a great way to pass the time.
Soon, the number of viewers in Chen Mo's stream kept rising. By the time the second ranked match ended, the viewer count had exceeded 500,000. Massive waves of bullet comments covered the entire screen, and gifts were sent one after another. While viewers spammed "666," many also tried to communicate with Chen Mo.
"God S, I beg you for an Annie tutorial!"
"God S, my roommate has cancer. Before he dies, he wants to see you play top lane Teemo. Please fulfill his wish!"
"God S, why aren't you talking? Say something!"
"Camera? Camera? Camera?"
Many new viewers were baffled. What was going on? Already 500,000 people watching?
Judging by the sheer volume of bullet comments and the frequency of gift-giving, the popularity was only going to get higher. Besides, Chen Mo hadn't even formally signed with Moyu Live Streaming Platform, so the viewer count shouldn't be fake.
But Chen Mo's stream was way too half-hearted, wasn't it?
Other streamers made a point of interacting with their audience. Some smaller streamers with low popularity would even read out every single comment from viewers, while big streamers would pick a few bullet comments to answer and occasionally crack jokes to liven up the atmosphere.
But with Chen Mo, not only did he not turn on his camera, he didn't even have a microphone?
The whole thing was just dry champion selection and gameplay. If it were anyone else, the stream would have died long ago!
Yet Chen Mo did this, and his popularity exploded instead. It was downright bizarre.
The third ranked match began. Chen Mo locked in his champion: Anivia, the Cryophoenix.
The bullet comments erupted into another frenzy.
"Wow, God S is showing off Anivia!"
"As expected, God S is teaching. He plays whichever champion is hardest. He must have seen the forums and knows we all said Twisted Fate and Anivia were weak, so he's deliberately playing them to show us!"
"The Anivias I meet only build walls to block their own escape routes. Let's see how God S plays. Will he also lose his egg?"
"Who was it that spread the rumor that God S didn't know how to play League of Legends? Take them out and shoot them! Spreading false intel!"
"Anivia fans, rise up!"
Soon, the viewers split into different factions, all divided by champion preference.
There was the "Teemo Faction" wanting Chen Mo to play cute champions.
There was the "Katarina Faction" wanting Chen Mo to play flashy champions.
There was the "Alistar Faction" wanting Chen Mo to reenact his "healing the enemy" plays.
There was the "Ryze Faction" wanting Chen Mo to showcase the new champion.
Almost every champion had some fans, all begging Chen Mo to play the champion they wanted to see. These people had no idea if Chen Mo was even reading the bullet comments, but they kept posting in various ways, hoping he would notice.
...
Zhang Yu, the owner of Moyu Live Streaming Platform, received a message.
"Boss Zhang, you need to check our stream's front page. Chen Mo's stream room is exploding with viewers!"
Zhang Yu, who was resting at home, was confused. What the hell? Chen Mo?
Why would he suddenly start streaming?
Moyu Live Streaming Platform had collaborated with Chen Mo before, back when he streamed the Onmyoji SSR summoning event. The platform had set up a special stream room for him then, but it hadn't been used since the event ended.
Chen Mo hadn't streamed in almost two years. Why would he suddenly start streaming now, and with such explosive popularity?
