Description
#I am really just a substitute, they just don’t believe it# Lin Lan, the genius mid-laner who won the LOL Grand Slam, died in a car accident. Upon waking up, he transmigrated to a parallel world and discovered that his counterpart in this world was a complete loser. Not only is he technically poor with no friends, but the team he is in is also broken and lousy. Fortunately, the boss is not bad, and the training is not too hard. Lin Lan, who has been tired all his life, quickly falls in love with this place. To maintain his laid-back lifestyle, he occasionally lends a hand to the team. But why do people around him look at him with increasingly strange eyes? DT team has a new substitute support, at first everything seems normal, but gradually becomes absurd. The starting support injures his hand, and Lin Lan in the corner lazily stands up, “I got this.” With one hand on Lux support, he scores a pentakill and wipes out the opponents. Teammates: ???? The AD player had a family emergency and was torn between the hospital and the arena. Lin Lan pats his shoulder, “You go, leave the game to me.” With one hand on Draven, he takes the high ground in fifteen minutes, and at twenty minutes, he cuts down an opponent like a child. Opponents: ???? The top laner and the management disagree, angrily throwing equipment and leaving. Lin Lan lazily picks up the equipment and sits in the top lane position. With one hand on top lane, he instakills like a blade sister, dominating the air. Audience: ???? The mid-laner’s contract expires, preferring to be a substitute for another team than stay. The club is in a mess, and Lin Lan stands up casually, “Captain, actually my main role is mid-lane. How about letting me try?” Captain: ? I feel like something’s off with this substitute! *On the second day of rebirth, Lin Lan sees someone who looks a lot like the silly dog captain from his past life. He tentatively calls out to him, “Hey, silly dog.” Xiao Shengjing, with a cold face, takes out his phone, “Insulting the captain, deduct two hundred.” Lin Lan: “…” Captain, listen to my explanation!

My Thoughts on I Really Am Just A Substitute [E-Sports]
Okay, let's dive into "I Really Am Just A Substitute [E-Sports]". This novel was quite a ride, and I can definitely see why it has garnered such varied opinions. It's a complex blend of genres that doesn't always land perfectly, but when it does, it soars.
First Impressions
The premise is undeniably intriguing: a world-class esports star, burdened by a dark past, gets a second chance in a parallel universe after a tragic accident. He ends up inhabiting the body of his parallel self and has to navigate the cutthroat world of professional gaming while uncovering a conspiracy. It's a lot to take in, and the initial confusion some readers experienced is understandable. However, I stuck with it, and the payoff was generally worth it.
What Works Well
The character development, particularly that of Lin Lan (MC) and the parallel world ML, Xiao Shengjing, is a major highlight. Watching Lin Lan grow and heal from his past traumas was genuinely satisfying. The romance, while not always at the forefront, felt earned and sweet, especially the contrast between the supportive parallel world ML and the cold, unyielding original world ML. I also appreciated the complexity of the esports elements. The novel delves deep into the game, covering picks, bans, and match strategies in detail, which should please League of Legends enthusiasts. The overall plot, while convoluted at times, kept me engaged with its blend of esports action, mystery, and emotional depth.
Areas of Concern
The pacing can be uneven. The shift between the esports and mystery elements can feel jarring, and the sheer amount of gaming detail might overwhelm some readers. Also, while the OP MC is fun to read about initially, I can see why some found him a bit too perfect, and some of the side characters get somewhat sidelined.

Just be prepared for an emotional rollercoaster and a lot of League of Legends strategy.
