Tinghua was quite familiar with LeBlanc, the Deceiver, including her Mirror Image skill. Now, if he wanted to take out Luocheng, he needed to know which one was the real LeBlanc!
When Mirror Image was activated, LeBlanc would become invisible for 0.5 seconds, and once her Mirror Image appeared, she would head straight toward the other direction while the original stood still. In other words, the LeBlanc who was slower to move was the real one!
Sure enough, Tinghua saw LeBlanc turn from one to two LeBlancs. One of them headed straight toward the bushes while the other was slower to move. Yes, it was slower!
That was him!
Tinghua quickly pressed his A-key and cast his attacks at this LeBlanc!
Her armor was pierced in an instant and in no time, the weakened LeBlanc’s HP had dropped and was depleted like crazy. In just a few attacks, Luocheng would be dead…
“Oh man, please don’t let it be the real one!” Someone was sighing on the professional player seats.
“Well, that’s got to be the real one.” Ancient Dust said.
Tinghua thought the same. He was sure that this LeBlanc that he was about to kill was the right one.
However, there was no 300 gold sign appearing over his head. Tinghua’s face turned grim! Sh*t, that was a fake!
This son of a b*tch! This cursed man had been quite good back in DotA and Warcraft, he should have known that this multi-tasking was not an issue for him!

“Oh, Blood Eagle was hitting Luocheng’s Mirror Image! How embarrassing!”
“The trickeries of LeBlanc can only show its magic in skilled hands! Fighting Hawk is quite the pro, deceiving Blood Eagle’s sharp eyes!” Miracle commented.
On the other hand, the audience was furious.
How could a professional like him make such a mistake!?
Of course, there were veteran players who had witnessed how Luocheng had tricked Blood Eagle and were shocked at what they saw!
They had played League of Legends to no end in their daily lives, and the seasoned eyes of veteran players could see which LeBlanc was the real one.
However, Luocheng’s Mirror Image had fooled most of the seasoned players in the scene!
The question was… how? How!? That Mirror Image was standing there like a block of wood, it was so unthinkable that it was a fake!
***
The trick of Wukong’s Warrior Trickster was to press the S key to stay put. When you were staying put, others would instinctively think that that was the clone. When you pressed the W-key again, there was a high chance that your opponent would start attacking your clone right away.
Yet, LeBlanc’s Mirror Image was different. When her HP got depleted to less than 40%, she would then split into two.
Back then, there was a famous trick under every LeBlanc player’s sleeves—to stand completely still while ordering the Mirror Image to run!
In the earlier version, when Mirror Image appeared, it was set to stand in its place completely still by default. You needed to use the Alt-key to control it and make sure your real avatar stayed put while sending your clone running for its life. When the opponent pursued it, the real avatar could then slowly walk in the other direction.
Now, the difficulty of performing this had been increased as the clone was set to run toward a direction by default, revealing that the slower image was the real LeBlanc. No one could know when their HP would drop lower than 40% after all.
Luocheng knew Wukong very well. Its clone, skills, and the cooldown time of the skills. He had made preparations beforehand when he knew that Tinghua was on to him. He had already placed his finger on his ALT-key at all times, and when his Mirror Image had appeared, he immediately ordered it to stay put. Following that, he had quickly guided his avatar to flee.
Thus, Tinghua could not gauge accurately on which one was the real LeBlanc. All he could do was to rely on his skill and had directed his attack at the one that he thought was the real Luocheng!
Not only that, Wu Sen was cunning as well. He knew that the LeBlanc that Tinghua was attacking was just a Mirror Image, yet, he still put a shield on it!
After this move, Tinghua, who was at first doubtful, was sure that this was the real LeBlanc. And the result? He had gotten the wrong target and was slain by Wu Sen!
Tactics. Tactics was not just about intellectual warfare, but also psychological warfare!
Tinghua’s Wukong was a tricky foe, however, so was Luocheng’s LeBlanc. They were Champions that were skilful in the art of deception, and it appeared that Luocheng was a better player at this art.
On the screen, it looked like a guessing game of “who is the real Champion”. There were many layers of guesswork, skills that not many LOL players could understand. That was why there were so many who were laughing at Tinghua, calling him an idiot, while they themselves had not even seen through the first layer of Luocheng’s tricks.
***
There was no use for Tinghua to feel frustrated. To be frank, risking his life to take down LeBlanc this way had been a long shot anyway. Even if he could have found the real LeBlanc, Luocheng could still go back to his original spot by using his W-skill. If that were to happen, it would still be equally difficult trying to kill him.
In short, this support from Luocheng was too unexpected.
When one looked at the bottom lane again, Lin Dong had the creeps controlled up to the towers and was gaining experience easily. Jupiter and Langjie could not achieve much other than scratching off a few bits of health from the tower.
Zhou Yan was able to, as expected, kill Renekton by utilizing his Q-Skill, then, he could quickly escape from Orianna’s wrath. This time, Team Skycrown’s strategy had earned them a kill.
Luocheng had acquired a decent amount of gold. He would be able to buy himself a Sightstone soon if they could keep this up.
After buying equipment at the base, Luocheng quickly rushed toward the bottom lane again. It was not fair to ask Lin Dong to handle the bottom lane on his own. After all, Jupiter was a skilful player, and they could not risk having Lin Dong falling to his clutches.
***
The bottom laners were about to reach Level 6 soon.
A Level 6 LeBlanc was going to be a fearsome foe. Her Ultimate skill alone could wreck her opponents like a truck!
“Let’s take out Blitzcrank. He used his Flash earlier and it did not hit me, his Flash is still under cooldown.” Lin Dong suggested.
The point of levelling Lucian and LeBlanc to Level 6 was to overpower Twitch and Blitzcrank from the opposite team. Thus, they shifted their attention to Blitzcrank.
LeBlanc could easily deplete two-thirds of Blitzcrank’s HP by unleashing all of her skills on him as well as a touch of Ignite. If Lin Dong stepped in, he could deal the finishing blow.
There were so many things a Level 6 LeBlanc could do!
She could cast two Sigils of Malice using Mimic now, thus, her DPS potential was enormous if she unleashed all of her skills onto one foe.
Of course, she could also Mimic her Distortion skill. In fact, Mimicking Distortion was one of the ways that could deal more damage. However, to use Distortion, LeBlanc needed to dash toward the enemy, increasing the risk of exposing herself to danger!
Luocheng did not hesitate when he saw the opportunity and quickly struck!
His way of using LeBlanc was different from the others. The last skill he used was Distortion… meaning that when he used Mimic to attack, he was attacking Blitzcrank with Distortion first.
After that, he quickly cast a Sign of Malice on him!
Bzzt!
Jupiter was not a slowpoke either, and when he saw Luocheng rush at him with all his attacks, he quickly pressed his ulti and detonated his Static Shield, attempting to silence LeBlanc!
A powerful electric current surged up to surround him, damaging the creeps and Champions around him.
Yet, when the electric current reached Luocheng’s LeBlanc, she suddenly vanished and teleported back to her previous spot!
She was able to skip back to her previous spot using Mimic in the nick of time, resulting in Blitzcrank’s attack missing him entirely!
It was such an elegant display of skill!
After Static Field was detonated, LeBlanc swiftly dashed forward again and landed her attack on Blitzcrank’s face, activating the Mark of Malice that was on him. This meant that her attack not only dealt additional damage, but also silenced him. Then, LeBlanc hit the poor robot with her Ethereal Chains!
Langjie’s Twitch quickly activated his Ultimate as soon as he saw LeBlanc coming. However, Luocheng’s LeBlanc was able to skip back to her original spot yet again, resulting in Twitch missing all of his attacks!
As she moved back, Ethereal Chains had rooted Blitzcrank, giving Lin Dong the opportunity to step in with his attacks and Ignite, killing Blitzcrank. Then, he unleashed his “Pegasus Meteor Fist” on Twitch, forcing him to flee for his life!
This beautiful display of skill had dazed the audience!
In fact, no one in the professional player seats could see clearly how he had done all those combos!
How did he do it? Unleashing his skills consecutively like that?
LeBlanc’s Ultimate skill was Mimic—repeating her last-used skill. Yet, he was able to move back and forth with W, then Q, then W, then W, then E, and then W! It was as though he was defying the laws of nature in the Summoner’s Rift!
“He used his ulti first. She was mimicking the Distortion she had used earlier!” Hades pointed out the secret behind this combo.
Using Mimic first.
That was an unusual move for LeBlanc users, and yet, this was the safest way to deal DPS with minimal risk. By doing this, he could make his LeBlanc unpredictable!
It almost felt as though four LeBlancs were dancing around Jupiter, confusing him like the moron that he was!
