Duro's teammate grid has a familiar answer: Ruler

LoL Esports' quick-fire interview gives Ruler the compliments and the less flattering categories, drawing an unusually fast audience.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 269,115 views a day, 16 times a normal first day on this channel (16,847).

The answer? Ruler

Funniest teammate? Ruler. Most athletic? Ruler again. Worst at other games? Duro isn't changing his answer for that one either.

LoL Esports' Short "The answer? Ruler" asks Duro to fill a teammate-superlatives grid, and Ruler's portrait ends up occupying much of it. The interview reached roughly 186,000 views in its first 12 hours, far beyond the channel's usual pace for Shorts.

The choices aren't all compliments. Alongside athleticism and the best laugh, Duro gives Ruler the category for getting most frustrated, known in gaming as tilting. Asked who's best at League of Legends, he returns to the same name. Kiin gets the always-late slot, while Duro reserves the music category for himself.

Viewers are turning that repetition into their own game, proposing questions about measuring distances that would also produce the answer Ruler. Others pick up on Duro's support-player role, joking that he's supporting his teammate outside the game too.

The clip follows Duro choosing Ruler for the lone teammate spot on his dream team, as we reported here. This time, the questions leave room for teasing as well as admiration.

There's tournament business around the joke: the channel's GEN-LYON quarterfinal preview also drew an unusually fast start, while its newer upload announces GEN's passage to the Worlds semifinals.
