Chapter 63
After returning to school after finishing the group stage with four wins and zero losses, Guan Liang and the others had dinner and ran to the Internet cafΓ© together to discuss the tactics of next week's knockout round. 35xs
"I just looked at the official website of the college league, and I have already played the matchup table for the knockout round, and basically the strength of the teams that can enter the knockout round is good, and it is completely incomparable with the teams I met today."
Yu Xi helped his glasses and began to explain the bracket of the knockout round to everyone.
Sixteen teams will be selected from each other in the knockout rounds, and will be randomly selected and distributed according to the format of the first group against the other group runners-up, and the competition will be held once a week.
Guan Liang's team was assigned to the top half of the group, and the first opponent they met was Jiangnan University, who came out of the fifth group as the second place, and they lost against Southeast University, which won the group first, and finally had a record of three wins and one loss.
"Their school is in Wuxi, so they have to come from there every week?"
Guan Liang glanced at the roster and said that his opponent next week was Jiangnan University, which is located in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, and it would take more than an hour to take the high-speed train from there to Nanjing.
"Well, the organizing committee of this college league has specially reimbursed the travel expenses of the teams that are far away from the stadium in each competition area, so the teams of many colleges and universities have also become more active."
"Although it only takes a while to take the high-speed train, the fatigue of the journey will still affect their state of competition, right?"
Guan Liang raised a key question, and indeed for the teams who came from other cities to participate in the competition, the fatigue caused by the journey was indeed an inevitable problem, and many times they were forced to adjust their biological clock to ensure that they were not too sleepy to affect the game when they woke up in the morning.
"Well, so we need to have a little advantage in this regard, here's the information I've gathered about this team, you guys take a look at ......"
Yu Xi said and put the opponent's information on the computer screen as usual, and began to explain to everyone the characteristics of the opponent this time in terms of personal ability and tactical style.
"This team of Jiangnan University is a team with the midfield as the core, which is also related to the individual ability of the players in these two positions, in terms of individual ranking points, their mid laner and jungler are much higher than the rest of their team."
"So they're going to tend to give up resources to mid laners in the early middle of the game? Junglers also tend to protect the development of mid laners, right? β
"That's right, if you want to take a professional team as an example, they're more like, and their mid laner also likes to use the hero Ice Bird as much as Froggen, so I think it's better to BAN this hero for tactical reasons."
Yu Xi put forward his personal opinion, judging from the data in his hand, this player's ice bird has a very high winning rate whether it is in the qualifying round or the school qualifiers, and Yu Xi, as a player who advocates data judgment, is personally inclined to ban this hero.
"Not necessarily, can you elaborate on some of his use of the Ice Bird?"
At this time, Guan Liang put forward another opinion, which seemed to have been considered after some consideration from his expression.
"There are some detailed data here, are you planning to directly target their Ice Bird system? But in my opinion, it might be a little easier to just ban their ice birds. β
"It's easy to save trouble, but at the same time there will be corresponding disadvantages...... First, as a team with Nakano as the core, I think there must be more than one Ice Bird system on the other side, and it stands to reason that they should still have two or three sets of good lineups in private, right? β
Guan Liang pointed out a problem, the team that can indeed play as a school representative team and enter the knockout round with a good result, they will not be completely incapacitated because BAN dropped the Ice Bird, otherwise their opponents would have done so as early as the group stage.

"That's right......
"Now we can analyze the weaknesses of their Ice Bird system through existing data, so that it is more stable than BAN Drop Ice Bird to face the secret system they are hiding? And one more thing, if you really aim for the championship, the experience of fighting against the opponent's ace system is essential. β
As Guan Liang said, a team cannot always rely on BAN/PICK to limit the opponent's play, the stronger the opponent, the more difficult it is to target through BAN/PICK, a mature team will always have five or six sets of skilled systems, if you want to win the championship, you must face this problem.
This invaluable experience is essential for a team trying to win a championship, but it is difficult to develop this experience in the normal training process.
"I probably know what you mean, but now if you lose the single-elimination round, you'll go straight home, are you sure you want to use the game to train the team's strength?"
"Of course, a lot of the things you get in the game are much bigger than in training, and if we can't get used to it now, it's easy to lose in the future."
As the captain, Guan Liang showed a tough side at this time, firmly believing that this game should adopt a strategy of facing the opponent's ace system head-on.
"You two don't quarrel, we can discuss it slowly......"
Ye Ziqing, who had been listening to the side at this time, suddenly interjected, revealing a rather worried expression.
"Huh? Quarrel?! β
"Huh? Quarrel?! β
Guan Liang and Yu Xi turned their heads and looked at Ye Ziqing in surprise after hearing this.
"Isn't it, I see the tone of your two that feels like you're going to fight."
"Of course not, that's what we used to talk like this when we were in a double row......"
Guan Liang explained to Ye Ziqing that because the intensity of the game was not as intense as imagined, it was the first time that Guan Liang and Yu Xi had entered this state when the team was discussing, and it was no wonder that the rest of the team misunderstood that they seemed to be quarrelling.
"Ah, I misunderstood...... Sorry, you guys continue. β
Hearing Guan Liang's explanation, Ye Ziqing's face turned red and looked quite embarrassed.
"Yu Xi, show me the data in the few games he used Ice Bird......
Guan Liang said to Yu Xi, and then a string of detailed information unfolded on the screen, Guan Liang carefully stared at the data in these games, and thought for a long time without saying a word.
"What's wrong, have you come to any conclusions?"
Yu Xi saw that Guan Liang had not reacted for a long time, and couldn't help but ask him.
"I mean, do you have the confidence to beat his Ice Bird on the right lane?"
Guan Liang turned his head and asked Yu Xi.
"Your joke isn't funny at all, although I don't think I have the level of a monster like you, but why am I alive if I can't gain an advantage against a player with a score lower than me......"
Yu Xi confidently said to Guan Liang that for Yu Xi, who has already stepped into a professional e-sports club with half a foot, it is more than enough to deal with opponents of this level.
"That's convenient, as long as you can suppress him on the line, you see the difference in his outfit in these games."
Guan Liang pointed out a few data to Yu Xi, there is a very obvious sign here, when this choice is used in the Ice Bird, there are generally three outfit modes, one is to first produce a small chalice to ensure the return to blue in the early and middle stages, and then transfer out Fa Qiang and meat outfits to participate in team battles.
The second is the most common outfit of the Ice Bird, the first small piece chooses the lunch box, and then with the help of the special effect of restoring the blue amount of blood when the lunch box is upgraded, it has been relied on, and the fastest speed FARM out of the time scepter to increase their combat effectiveness.

And the last one is more special, the first small piece will choose the tears of the goddess, and then go in the direction of the time hat, this kind of outfit is completely aimed at the late stage to play.
"Look here, as long as he is at a disadvantage in the early stage, he will basically choose the Tears of the Goddess first, and it is estimated that this is also determined by the characteristics of their team, after the Tears of the Goddess, it is estimated that others will let him develop all kinds of resources, and go directly to the situation after forty minutes."
"That is, you plan for me to force him straight out of the tears of the goddess during the matchup period?"
"It's almost the same thing, the Tears of the Goddess is a special prop, he doesn't provide any blood and magic strength in the early stage, the only thing that increases is the blue amount, and it takes a long time for its special effects to be full, during which the Ice Bird's combat power is quite poor."
In the game of League of Legends, most of the damage output of mid-laner heroes is played by relying on the high burst of skills under the magic force, although the amount of blue provided by the tears of the goddess can ensure that the ice bird is handy when FARM, but it can hardly provide any help when fighting head-on.
"Then you're going to take advantage of this vacuum on the opposite side of the midlaner......"
Yu Xi had already read a lot of information from Guan Liang's expression at this time, and roughly guessed Guan Liang's intentions.
"For teams that like to drag things out later, I think it's important to let them know that the game is often over at 20 minutes......
Guan Liang said this indifferently, but his eyes were indeed extremely firm.
"You guy, did you get stimulated by something during the holidays? How do you feel that you are more serious about this competition now than before......"
"I'm just going back to my old quest for the title, that's all." After deciding on the tactics for a week, Guan Liang and others were intensively training on this point in the next few days.
And on Wednesday, four days before the start of the knockout round, Guan Liang and other teammates were training with the team they had agreed with in an Internet cafΓ©.
"It's too slow, you can't be dragged by the opposite midlaner when you come from the middle lane."
Guan Liang shouted to Yu Xi beside him, Yu Xi was dragged by the opposite side in the middle for a few seconds just now, which made Guan Liang look quite dissatisfied.
"Oh my, I just wanted to take that guy's head when I saw the opportunity."
"Remember the time of the blue buff on the other side, and next time simply take the blue buff away."
Guan Liang instructed Ye Ziqing to remember the time of the opposite BUFF refresh, and it was quite necessary to write down this information in advance in the high-intensity confrontation game.
Throughout the day, Guan Liang and the others were implementing a strategic idea in training, that is, to use the advantages of their early lineup to control the ownership of the blue BUFF.
"There is no flash in the opposite mid-laner, and the next wave can force the opposite mid-tower."
Yu Xi's prince directly pushed the line towards the middle tower on the opposite side, and then began to call for support from other teammates.
In a normal passerby game, many players will only support their teammates when they are in crisis, which is also due to the lack of good communication between players in the passerby game and the lack of core command.
And in the confrontation between teams, it is quite quick to defend against your own shortcomings or strike at the opponent's weakest defense point in advance.
For example, now, Yu Xi immediately called the others to start forcing the tower after being forced out of the opposite mid-laner flash, trying to forcibly take out the mid-tower in a short period of time with the advantage of more and fewer numbers, and at the same time, if the opponent's mid-laner is not careful, it is extremely easy to send out the head in the absence of flash.
As soon as Yu Xi finished speaking, Brother Lower Road Rover and Bai Su opened their skills to push a wave of lines, and immediately walked towards the middle lane, and when they ran to the middle lane, Yu Xi's prince just advanced the line to the attack range of the defense tower.
Brother Tiger's EZ directly read a big move from the side at this time and brushed it over.,This wave of enemy soldiers who just came up immediately lost blood.,Although the ice bird on the opposite side immediately realized the intention of this side and threw out the R skill to clear the soldiers.,But it's hard to last in the absence of blue buff.,Plus there is no flash.,I didn't dare to go too forward and use ordinary attacks to consume.γ
"After taking the tower in this wave, you clear the vision near the red buff on the opposite side, and then come up and get the tower, now the little dragon has not been refreshed, and there is not much to do on the opposite side."
Guan Liang said as he began to use his skills to push up the line of troops on the road, the dragon girl's extremely powerful AOE ability made it difficult for the opposite mid laner to compete with it, plus the others on Guan Liang's side cleared the vision near the red BUFF after pushing off the middle tower, and the opposite side of the single could only quickly retreat.
In the case of no defense, Guan Liang's side quickly removed the outer tower on the road, at this time there are still more than forty seconds before the dragon refreshes, generally speaking, after more than ten minutes, the ADC and auxiliary of the double road will easily give the opposite side a chance to take out the small dragon, so Guan Liang's side did not choose to continue to push the opponent on the second tower on the road.
"Let's go back and make up for a round of equipment first, after I come out, I will continue to push the line of troops in the middle of the opposite road with Yu Xi, and the line of troops on your lower road will also be pushed a little over."
Guan Liang's team's style of play has always been quite aggressive, which also has a lot to do with the team's commanding style, in Guan Liang's opinion, instead of passively defending in the process of see-sawing and waiting for the opposite side to make mistakes, it is better to take the initiative to attack and let the opposite side appear in the case of huge oppressive force.
"I'm still five hundred yuan short of three phases, what do you say?"
Brother Hu asked Guan Liang that for the average team, at this time, they would choose to let the ADC go to FARM to the key equipment of the three phases before they would take the initiative to fight, but for Guan Liang, this matter does not seem to be so important.
"It's okay, the endless on the opposite side should be a little worse, the output you can hit is higher than that on the opposite side when they are all loose pieces, and you will go directly to the little dragon to gather and refresh it and start fighting directly."
Guan Liang's style of play since he came into contact with the game of League of Legends is particularly inclined to attack, and it doesn't matter if he has less swords, as long as there are more people in the opposite position, which is also one of the reasons why he often makes strong kills over the tower in the passerby game, as long as he thinks that he can gain an advantage, he will not hesitate to seize the opportunity.
Sure enough, as Guan Liang said, the opponent's ADC went directly to the middle lane to collect troops at this time, as if he wanted to make endless as soon as possible, while the other four people began to assemble on Xiaolong's side.
"Just drive the little dragon."
Guan Liang gave this order without hesitation, since he chose to assemble here in advance, it was impossible to be dragged by the four people on the other side, otherwise when the opposite ADC took out the endless, the advantage of this side was reduced by one point, so Guan Liang and the others forced the little dragon in front of the four people opposite.
"Pay attention to the position, you drag the little dragon out a little, Brother Tiger, you just stand farther away and use the skill output."
Guan Liang is not a brave and unscrupulous commander, and while decisively giving the order to force the little dragon away, Guan Liang did not forget to always be on guard against the surprise attack on the opposite side, and kept reminding several other teammates of their positions.
Sure enough, when Xiaolong's blood volume dropped to one-fifth left, the four people on the opposite side rushed directly towards Guan Liang's side, and ADC also hurriedly ran over from the middle lane at this time.
"You continue to output and take out the little dragon, I'll go up alone, and after you take the little dragon, you will look at the position output."
The timing of this raid chosen by the opponent is not bad, at this time, if Guan Liang's side chooses to fight back immediately, he will be double-set fire by Xiaolong and the opponent's firepower, and if he chooses to continue to collect Xiaolong, he will give the opposite side two to three seconds of pressure-free output time, even if he retreats, it will lead to a loss in blood volume, which will further lead to being dragged down.
But at this time, Guan Liang immediately made the best way to deal with it, which was largely because he had considered in advance that the other party would take this countermeasure, so in the next moment, Guan Liang's dragon girl directly pounced on the troops gathered on the opposite side with a big move.
The fluttering effect of the Dragon Maiden's ultimate directly caused the hero who was hit by the ultimate on the opposite side to be unable to output to the key hero here during this time, and was forced to hit the output on the Dragon Maiden in a defensive suit.
And during this time, Yu Xi and the others, who were going all out to output Xiaolong, directly killed Xiaolong, and then immediately turned the target of the fire to the enemy hero.
In the case that the ADC has not yet arrived, the output of the opposite side hits a dragon girl who has a two-level ultimate double resistance bonus at the eleventh level, and then Yu Xi's prince also seized the opportunity of concentrating on the output of Guan Liang on the opposite side, and directly EQ second consecutive provoked the front row of the opposite side, and then smashed down on the opposite side with a big move.
"The first round of output is to find the opposite side to assist the play, so that it is forced to hand over the ultimate!"
Guan Liang's fire selection target is a little different from other teams, and the support position is often ignored in team battles, because it is difficult for the hero in this position to play enough output, but in Guan Liang's opinion, although the support hero cannot play output, the control effect of his various skills can create a sufficient output environment for other teammates.
For example, Qin Nu's ultimate, if she hits her own key hero in the right environment, then this team battle will become quite passive, which is why Guan Liang asked Yu Xi to aim a round of output at the opposite side of the support, and if the opposite ADC has not rushed over in the two seconds, it will be quite difficult to fight on the opposite side.
"The auxiliary blood volume on the opposite side has bottomed out, and the ultimate is forced to be released here."
As Guan Liang considered, in the case of being forcibly set on fire, the opposite assistant was forced to hand over the ultimate to the dragon girl and the prince before the ADC arrived, because if he didn't do this, he was afraid that he would die directly before the ADC came, and he wouldn't even be able to release the ultimate.
βNICEοΌ The rear directly follows up and chases the opposite side to fight, and we have the advantage in team battles! β
After forcing the opposite side to release a life-saving move with little effect, Guan Liang knew very well that the output environment on his side was far higher than that of the other side, and the balance of victory in this team battle began to tilt in this direction.
In the end, this team battle was successfully fought into a zero-for-four situation, and it was with this overwhelming victory in the team battle and the economy of Xiaolong and Ta that Guan Liang and they successfully won the final victory in this training game.
"NICE, I played well in several team battles in this game."
After winning the game, Guan Liang praised the other team members while thanking the team that took the time to train with them in the game.
"Maybe it can really be done if you fight like this, so you can restrict the opposite ice bird through the early line, so that he is forced to choose the Tears of the Goddess, which is not a strong equipment with strong combat effectiveness, and then limit his development by constantly invading the wild area to control the opposite blue BUFF."
"The individual strength of their team is still limited, otherwise they would not be forced to choose this style of play that is delayed to the later stage, we just need to do a good job in the details and restrain them in terms of style."
Guan Liang said confidently to the others.
"You know that others are forced to choose this style of play...... Not everyone is like you all the time thinking about snowballing to further encroach on the opposite side, and a style of play like yours is very demanding for the commander, and if you can't always make the right response, it can easily lead to the reversal of the situation. β
Yu Xi complained faintly on the side, indeed, as he said, the more aggressive the style of play, the higher the requirements for the commander, which is why most amateur teams will choose a style that tends to be safe.
"Anyway, let's go for the weekend's game!"
