Asumi Sena Streams Ranked League of Legends Overnight as a 12-Hour Download Strains Her PC

VSPO — Asumi Sena, a member of VSpo, spent nearly five hours overnight playing ranked League of Legends while a game download that she said would take 12 hours ran in the background and pushed her PC to its limit. She told viewers she had not wanted to sit idle for 12 hours without a computer, so she decided to stream. With the machine barely coping, she said she could not even keep Twitter open and pulled up the match-history site OP.GG on her phone instead.

Early on, chat began reporting an earthquake, with messages citing a magnitude 5.0 quake and a maximum intensity of 4 in northeastern Chiba Prefecture. Sena urged viewers to look after themselves and to leave the stream if they felt unsafe. She said she was fine herself and carried on.

“Everyone, look after yourselves. If you’re in danger, seriously, don’t watch this stream. Protect yourselves.” — Asumi Sena, as chat reported an earthquake

After the first game cost her 20 points, she played Brand in the support slot next to a teammate who had switched to ADC so she could take the role. “Onji, I want you to win,” she told him, using a nickname for the teammate. “Let’s go win back the 20 points we just lost.” She narrated the pair’s games like a serialized manga, and when the game ended she thanked him: “Finally, a story we could finish together.” Chat answered with “This is the series finale!”

Between ranked games she played a single Teamfight Tactics match to earn an emote she wanted on her live-server account. She finished third and was promoted to Platinum 3. Back in League she played Akali and received five honors, including one from the opposing Galio, and teammates sent warm messages after the game. Sena said she is Gold 2 in League, adding, “There are Akali players who deserve more admiration.” Later, she told viewers she had become calmer while playing and described herself as a slow, steady learner. “When I keep entering tournaments, I can feel myself getting a little better,” she said. A viewer also asked which secondary champion she would recommend to an Akali player.

She ended the stream to watch a T1 match. The download had reached about 90 percent after roughly eight hours. Six Super Chats came in; Sena said her PC was too strained to open the screen where they appear, thanked those who sent them and promised to read them all next stream. She also pointed viewers to an Arknights: Endfield event at 7 p.m. that day.
