021 SFSH
SFSH is an old and niche phrase even among players in the Dota core area.
SF refers to a hero named Shadow Demon in Dota, the English initials of its name are SF, and SH represents the early period, a command in Dota based on the RTS game map, that is, "-SameHero", this instruction can enable both players to choose a hero at the same time, this mode is abbreviated as SH because of its characteristics by many players at that time as the standard mode of the same hero solo.
The most commonly used solo hero at the time was Shadow Fiend, and SFSH became a brand of the era - with the independence of Dota, players did not have to type in commands to change the game mode after opening the game, and now the private game room can choose the mode of the game before the start of the match, after which most new players no longer know the meaning of these four letters.
Wei Hongzhuo is one of the few players in this group, and his understanding of this phrase comes from the elementary school computer teacher who once led him to the door of video games, and he can indeed understand the meaning of the word if he has a certain understanding of that ancient competitive era...... But he also began to wonder how the girl in front of him, who looked even smaller than himself, knew.
But it didn't really matter, he shook his head, trying to make sure that what the girl was talking about was indeed this thing: "SFSH? ”
"That's right, one-on-one solo in the shadow demon, no control charms, no soul tears, forbidden junglers, the first to take two heads or one tower of the side to win." The girl pressed her fingers in order, "I heard Tian She say that you are playing a medium unit, this method should at least be able to see how big a gap there is between me and you in terms of line matching ability, how to say?" ”
"No problem, no problem," the thin young man was unusual, calmly sweeping Lu Xinlei's figure from top to bottom, "But I can't guarantee how well it will be." ”
"It's okay," the girl didn't avoid his gaze, but returned with the same objective gaze, and then turned to Tian Ruize who was standing on the side, "Tian She, it's trouble." ”
"Hmm." Tian Ruize looked at the two people who were tense and didn't say anything, he walked to a machine behind the young man and pressed the start button.
And Wei Hongzhuo, who was confirmed, also massaged his knuckles that were a little tired due to the game just now, and didn't pay attention to the opponent he was about to face.
His first game of Dota was SFSH, and he played SFSH for five years before he officially reached the game Dota - in the dimly lit and cramped school computer room ten years ago, the male teacher who started his video game career took him to click on the very beautiful game screen at that time, and taught him how to operate and how to win.
And now, this belief of his is a ...... The little girl who has just learned Dota for two weeks is so casually talking, although he is not a careful person who cares about this very seriously, but after all, he is still a little unconvinced.
Let her see how big the gap really is.

Shadow Demon, mid-laner, solo, which of these three words has a very big knowledge.
Shadow Fiend is a hero in Dota who is known for his ethereal dashing, and he has a three-stage independent damage ability that releases shadows at three fixed distances directly in front of him/her, from near to far, dealing damage to all enemies within range, and the unit hit by this damage will be inflicted a short-lasting, stackable hit combo effect, and the damage hit by other Shadow Fang will be stacked and amplified for the duration of the effect.
Since this skill is released at a fixed distance directly in front of the hero, it is very important to grasp the direction and distance of the hero when releasing the skill, if these two points are not up to the standard of the one-on-one lane basic skills in Dota, the Shadow Fiend will become a crispy hero with only two passives in the player's hands, although these two passives also look good: the latter is a simple and crude aura that cuts the armor of enemies in all areas, The former allows Shadow Fiend to steal souls from each unit he kills to increase his attack:
Each soul has 2 attack damage, and a maximum of 32 souls can be obtained depending on the skill level.
From the perspective of skill set, Shadow Demon is indeed a hero who tests the basic skills of mid-laner players, and in Dota's long life, there have been countless rookies who have been challenged by all heroes in the middle lane because of the conventional joke of "novices play Shadow Demon is fast", and the hero of Shadow Demon has also been saddled with the name of "dare to choose and dare to lose". However, among players in some core areas, this hero still retains its vitality.
Especially in this kind of solo challenge with a strong flavor of rivers and lakes.
Set up the console, select the mode, enter the game, and the heroes of both sides appear in the center of the spring resurrection point, this series of operations actually took less than five minutes.
There is a waiting time of almost two minutes between the start of the game and the departure of the first wave from the high ground, which normally allows everyone in the team to walk to the Bounty Rune spawn point for a period of time during a normal match, but in the middle lane heads-up mode, players will rely on this more than a minute to intrigue in terms of vision.
Due to Dota's game mechanics, vision is a crucial part of the mid-path with complex terrain, and even during daylight hours when the field of vision is open, if there are no friendly units on the platform near your tower, the hero will still not be able to get vision on the opponent's side of the platform, and when a ranged hero like Shadow Fiend is languishing, it means that he cannot grasp the opponent's hero's movements. There is no reason to give up the initiative in this field of vision to the other side, so the game has already begun long before the line is refreshed.
The Invisible Scout Ward, which provides vision, is free in the shop, but has a cooldown, and the True Sight Ward, which allows the hero to see invisible units within the range, is priced at 75 gold, but if you can ensure that you can remove the opponent's False Eye, the 100 gold base from destroying the False Eye plus more additional economic and experience gains over time will make it a great deal. Because of this, in order to at least not let the opponent benefit, in the mid laner solo, players will carefully arrange their field of vision.
There was no exception in this scene, Wei Hongzhuo, who was randomly located on the guard side in the lower left direction of the game map, put down a fake eye on the side of his river with the help of the bushes next to the middle lane line, because he was in the shadow, the other party should not think of the fake eye in this position.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly glanced back at the direction of the girl behind him, but his vision was blocked tightly by Tian Ruize's thick body.
Okay, it didn't matter much anyway, it was just curiosity, he retracted his mind and manipulated the hero to walk back to the guard's dispatch point.
He doesn't plan to release water in this game, although Tian Ruize's hastily pulled up team is not a very competitive team in the entire Major, but it can really play a good role as a foil for a medium-sized player, and it is not difficult to play some dazzling games with his level in the later rounds of the main stage, turning the tide or powerless, in the college school cup where the attention is not low, such a performance can attract considerable attention.
There is still a certain gap between his current score and the school team with a three-digit ranking per capita in Tian Ruize's mouth, but the person who led him on this path also told him that he must not feel that he can't do it, and if he feels that he can't do it, he will unconsciously lower his goals, and once he lowers his goals, he will naturally waste his growth time.
There is a limit to the growth of a person in one aspect of his life, which is often referred to as the gap in "talent", and those who waste talent will eventually be punished - and then, the sound of the horn that resounded throughout the battlefield lingered in the headphones of the inexplicably somewhat distracted teenager, reminding him that he was no longer allowed to wander.
The position of the guard side has a certain degree of exquisiteness, as a senior midlaner, he can't not know, he also has the help of God this time, every soldier has no accidents, all perfectly according to the trajectory he expected, he has confidence, this time his state is bursting, before this game he may have operated thousands of times of the opening card soldiers, but these operations are not as smooth and smooth as today, from the beginning to the present, everything is showing a positive result.
Even without such a show, Wei Hongzhuo would not lose his confidence, after all, no matter how much potential this girl had, two weeks was really not enough time for her to understand the vast number of complex and important systems contained in this great esports sport.
He decided to use the gap in the link of the card soldier to teach the girl who didn't know respect very well.
The Black Demon, who was deliberately controlling his position, took turns stopping in front of each creep in order to hinder their tracks, and he clearly felt that he now had a clear mind and a smoother operation than usual, and he remembered that his best level was 27 seconds to put the first creep off his high platform, and this time he was confident that he could increase that number by one or two seconds.
But the enemy he faced seemed to be no worse than he was. As his lane, which controlled his speed, approached the outer edge of his tower's range, he could see the opponent's hero and lane almost just below the tower from the vision provided by his hero.
"Strange thing." He couldn't help but mutter, and could only continue to control the line of troops to sway behind him, but even so, until his line was completely into the river, the opponent's hero emerged from the high platform on the opponent's side - completely suppressed.
The boy's original plan to use the basic skills of the card soldier to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger was shattered, and in this regard, the basic skills of the girl who was the opponent were better than him. But when he clicks on the same hero that the girl is manipulating, he finds an item that is completely beyond his understanding of the game:
"Mending the axe?" He blinked twice, the scientific name of the piece was Suppressive Blade, and the active effect could cut down a tree, while the passive would increase the damage of the hero's normal attacks against creeps and creeps, depending on the type of hero attack: 18 for melee heroes and 5 for ranged heroes.
This passive that has no effect on the hero is extremely uncommon in the fierce mid-laner solo, and since Shadow Fiend is also a ranged attack hero, he can only gain 5 attack damage against creeps when equipped with the Suppression Blade, so it is even more difficult to see in SFSH.
Even Wei Hongzhuo, who had been tempered in this game mode for a long time, was a little surprised, he really couldn't understand the reason why the girl used the equivalent of a quarter of the economy of going out, that is, 150 gold, to choose this equipment. On his optimistic side, he told him that it was only because the girl really had some misunderstanding of the game, but another part of his indescribable intuition told him that there was something strange about it.
