Ryan3

Qihong Chen, known in the scene as Ryan3, is a 21-year-old bot laner from China who plays for Thunder Talk Gaming in the LPL. Playing as an AD carry, he fills the role built on scaling damage, and his job is to become the main source of his team’s offense once matches drag into their late stages.

The Marksman’s Craft

Bot lane carries rise or fall on positioning. Early on, Ryan3 needs to farm without getting caught and work with his support to take control of the bottom lane. Later, he shifts into the role of primary damage dealer, hovering near the edge of teamfights, applying steady damage while his teammates shield him. The strongest marksmen pair precise mechanics with a calm read of the game, knowing when to commit and when to stay back. It is a position where one mistake can be punished on the spot.

Competing for Thunder Talk Gaming

Thunder Talk Gaming is one of the squads fighting through the demanding LPL field, and Ryan3’s spot in its bot lane makes him a major factor in the team’s results. At 21, he combines youth with growing experience, and his relationship with his support sits at the center of how the team plays the bottom side of the map. A carry tends to play with more assurance and consistency once that duo chemistry clicks.

The LPL stands apart as a proving ground, known for intense mechanical play and nonstop early aggression. For a marksman, bot lanes often become places of constant pressure, which calls for toughness and flexibility. Ryan3’s task is to stay a reliable damage source while getting through the tough matchups that a long season is sure to bring.

What Lies Ahead

Still a young carry in the middle of his development, Ryan3 has time on his side. Upcoming seasons give him the opportunity to show he can reliably turn lane performance into teamfight impact and to earn a place among the LPL’s top bot laners. His progress will hinge on sharpening his positioning, strengthening his synergy with his teammates, and meeting the demands of one of the sport’s toughest environments. For Thunder Talk Gaming, his continued development will be a key piece of the puzzle.
