Aatrox, A God King In A Modern World. Chapter 19: Counter Pick

Annie said her uncle had arrived and she needs to leave but would be back before the 1v1 match started. Before playing with Aatrox she was worried that he would get slaughtered by Thomas who was a Diamond ranked player, but after seeing how well Aatrox did during their two games, she realized that he had a chance to win.

After Annie left, Aatrox continued playing while chatting with Pandamonium. During his matches, other people joined the live stream and started chatting in the chat as well, but no one spoke as much as Pandamonium.

Time quickly pa.s.sed, Aatrox had now risen from Silver 2 to Silver 1. At this rate, he would soon reach Gold. Looking at the paper he was given earlier today, Aatrox copied Thomas's username and sent him a friend request while chatting with the people watching his stream.

[HereWeGoAgain: But it's not possible G.o.d Aatrox, I've seen a lot of videos on the Internet but no one has landed 6 auto attacks during their Aatrox combo more than twice in a row. But seeing use Aatrox, it seems like the character was designed to be played that way.]

[Pandamonium: I said! I have lost count of how many times I tried to do this combo but I only managed to do it once by a stroke of luck. I have no idea how you make the combo while attacking someone every time like it's nothing.]

"I don't know what you're talking about. I only use the most efficient method while attacking. You only have to use the sword cut every 0.3721 seconds. If you use the current between the first cut with a range of 0.96 seconds the combo completes itself. " Aatrox said as if what he said was the easiest thing in the world.

[HereWeGoAgain: HOW THE h.e.l.l WOULD I KNOW THE MILLISECONDS FOR EACH MOVE WHILE I'M IN A TEAM FIGHT?!?]

[Pandamonium: @HereWeGoAgain, I urge you not to try to understand the mind of G.o.d Aatrox. In the few days that I have been following him, it seems that my horizons have expanded, or I'm just talking to a robot and making a fool of myself ¬_¬ ]

"I just tried to do the combo one day, just keep practicing for one hour and you'll start doing it without realizing it." Aatrox advises them from experience when remembering how he trained his sixth sense. In the beginning, he needed to concentrate fully to get the combo's right, now Aatrox no longer remembers what it was like not to use it.

Before the viewers could respond, Aatrox saw that Annie and Thomas were both online. Instantly an invitation to a custom match arrived.

As Aatrox entered the voice room, his brow furrowed. The first thing he heard was "Hahaha, let's see this silver trash lose against Thomas."

Glancing at the people in the room, Aatrox saw that the lowest-ranked person was the guy who had just spoken who was Gold 4. There was only one rank difference between him and Aatrox but he acted as if he was several times better.

Ignoring this ignorant person, Aatrox asked: "Did we come here to chat or to play?"

"Are you in a hurry to lose to Thomas, You stinky Silver?" Said the boy again. his username was 'XvideosIsOff'.

"Show him who's boss XIO." Said another random boy who probably didn't like to say the boy's full username.

"Stop this bulls.h.i.+t, he's here to have a 1v1. state the rules right away." Annie said as she just entered the room.

"Well, the rules will be street 1v1. No 100 farm or who takes the tower first. No time limit, no bans. Here the one who wins is the one who gets first blood. " Said Thomas on his 'IHateNoobs' account.

"Alright, let's go." Said Aatrox already starting to get impatient. He was excited to play someone more skillfully than the players of his rank, but the att.i.tude of these mortals annoyed him the most.

For the match, Aatrox clearly chose Aatrox while Thomas chose Fiora. Leaving the voice chat room, Aatrox waited for the match to begin.

[Pandamonium: Be careful G.o.d Aatrox, Fiora is considered to be one of the strongest characters against Aatrox. Probably he chose it because he saw your username and a.s.sumed you would pick Aatrox.]

When the match started, there was nothing unusual, but at level 3 Thomas, who had unlocked all of his basic skills, walked towards Aatrox with his Fiora.

Aatrox wasted no time and knocked Fiora up using his ability [Darkin Blade] first move. Using the combo he always used, Aatrox auto-attack Fiora and knocked her up again with his [Darkin Blade]'s second move, but when Aatrox threw two chains at Fiora to finish his combo, Thomas didn't try deflecting it. Aatrox saw an opportunity and used [Darkin Blade]'s the third sword cut on the area his chains would pull Fiora too. However, that did not happen. When his chains would normally pull Fiora towards him, Thomas used Fiora's ability [Riposte] that countered the chain's ability by making Fiora invulnerable and immune to crowd control for 0.75s.

Aatrox missed his third strike of [Darkin Blade] and before he had a chance to dodge, Fiora's blade made Fiora invulnerable to the pull of Aatrox's chains transferred the impact with a sword strike back to him. Aatrox was immobilized and Fiora used Lunge to hit Aatrox's weak point, causing him more damage.

At this point, both Champions had just over 20% of their health remaining. Whoever landed their next combo would be the victor of the match. Having learned from the last trade, Aatrox waited for his weak point to be on his back and pretended to walk in the wrong direction. Seeing an opportunity, Thomas instantly used his [Lunge] ability to approach Aatrox, but by the time he realized that he was tricked, it was too late.

Aatrox used [Umbral Dash] to dodge Fiora's [Lunge] and hit her with the first move of his [Darkin Blade]. Being far enough away, Aatrox managed to knock up Fiora. Before she fell back to the ground, Aatrox had already approached and given her 2 auto attacks, Fiora had only 3% health left, if she suffered one more auto-attack she would die. Without thinking twice Thomas used [Riposte] making Fiora became invulnerable. Aatrox had expected this and didn't use any crowd control abilities.

With no abilities to deflect, Fiora failed to stun Aatrox. Now unprotected, Aatrox just gave another auto-attack and ended the match.
