In the lane, Lin Xiao was very active in harassing his opponents and denying creeps.
Since these opponents managed to get matched with his father-in-law, it was clear their level wasn't much to speak of. Even though he often played support, he was at least at a Sixth Level caliber; his last-hitting wasn't as good as his peers at the same level, but it definitely crushed those at the Central Army level. He easily denied one minion after another, preventing the opponents from getting full experience, and he even used his skills to harass them from time to time, leading to the deaths of their characters three times, all kills which he let his father-in-law have. When the opposition played coy, he casually took two waves of jungle creeps.
This comprehensive suppression soon drew question marks from the opposing team, as well as inquiries to his father-in-law about whether he had hired a booster?
