Chapter 71
In the next match, as Guan Liang imagined, after sending a blood in the early stage, the purple side's bottom lane duo fell into an endless whirlpool, and after being killed again and again by the unreasonable operation of the opponent's ADC Wayne, they finally learned to hide far behind the defense tower.
"This is directly penetrated, it's not a level ...... at all"
Guan Liang and the others who watched all this happen shrugged helplessly, they were able to mix in the professional competition for so many years, and the team on the purple side actually had two brushes, and their only shortcoming may be that there was no talented player in the team who could be their fulcrum.
And now, they have been completely slaughtered by a new team who have just appeared in public for less than two games, and the direct factor is precisely because of the unparalleled talent and talent of the opposite bottom lane duo.
"Although Nunu is a hero who doesn't have much room to operate, Li Yong uses another way to let us understand that his performance in the support position is no worse than his ADC......"
During the game, watching Li Yong's Nunu appear again and again in the position where he was most needed, Yu Xi also had to sigh at the successful transformation of the once No. 1 ADC, after changing his role to become an assistant, Li Yong was also able to freely support everywhere without being involved in the line, which made his open-picture view of the overall situation completely exerted.
"The actions on the other side are completely within his prediction, and being an opponent with this kind of guy is also a pain for the people on the other side......"
"I really want to see them face off against the Phoenix team soon, not to mention the other roads, their team's lower lane is completely capable of challenging the current Phoenix team's duo."
As Guan Liang and others were expecting, esports fans across the country couldn't wait to face the Phoenix team soon after witnessing the performance of Li Yong and the mysterious ADC he assisted in this match.
After being wiped out by Li Yong and his team again and again, the team on the purple side finally played GG in the 28th minute, and then in the second game of the exchange of places, Li Yong and they still won the game bloodlessly and successfully advanced to the next round.
"It's up to the Phoenix team now, no matter what, they won't lose to a team that isn't very famous, right?"
Brother Tiger was joking on the side, although it is said that in these knockout matches of the League of Legends, there are often some dark horses that suddenly come out, such as Li Yong and their heresy (Astray) just now, but all this is based on the premise that these dark horse teams themselves have good strength, and in front of the Phoenix team, no team in China dares to claim to be on par with them.
"There's nothing to see in the next match, so let's take advantage of this time to play two......
Yu Xi stretched his waist and sat on the machine next to him, turned on the computer and prepared to go online, unlike Li Yong and their heresy (Astray) before, the player data of the opponent of the Phoenix team this time has been checked by Yu Xi clearly, and it is impossible to pose even a slight threat to the Phoenix team with their strength.
"You really don't miss even a minute, aren't you tired of playing so many games every day......
Bai Su couldn't help but complain on the side, although Yu Xi was a well-known training freak, but such an act of not giving himself even a minute to relax after the game was completely inconsistent with the concept of normal people.
"Of course it's tiring to play so many games, but for me, as long as I can make myself better, it doesn't matter if I am tired to death."
Yu Xi said with a serious face, he knew very well that he was not born with an extraordinary talent in games like Guan Liang, so since the beginning, he could only increase his probability of winning by training hard and constantly collecting the opponent's data, and only by doing this could he stand on the same starting line as those geniuses.
"Then I'll go up and play a game with you, it just so happens that I'm not interested in this game. 35xsβ
Guan Liang also opened the client in his computer as he spoke, and entered the account password with lightning speed, and then logged in directly to the game.
"You just invite me and start the rehearsal."
"Hmm."
After both sides went online, Guan Liang and Yu Xi started their double-row journey as always, and now both of them have reached the top 100 of the national server, and in this score segment, they can basically meet seven or eight professional players in every game.
However, due to the fact that the competition is going on now, those professional players who are participating are preparing for the next game online, so there are not many people online in this segment at present, and the queuing speed of Guan Liang and Yu Xi is also extremely slow.
"It's been almost twenty minutes......"
Looking at the time in the queue walking little by little, Yu Xi, who has always been very patient, couldn't help but complain.
"After all, those people aren't online right now...... If we are in two pairs, it will be more difficult to match the scores. β
After waiting for a few more minutes, Guan Liang and Yu Xi finally lined up for the game, and the two of them were undoubtedly placed on the first and second floors by the system.
"Order on the first floor."
"Medium order on the second floor."
After entering, Guan Liang and Yu Xi directly reported their locations in the chat box.
"The third floor is not assisted."
"No jungler on the fourth floor."
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ You're a picky eater."
After the three players on each side finished BAN on each side, they each chose their own heroes, but at this time, suddenly on the fifth floor of the selected position, a string of ellipses was suddenly played.
"Damn, on the opposite side is the bottom lane double row of the Phoenix team, if I play ADC, this is going to be hung up and beaten!"
"On the other side is the bottom lane of the Phoenix team? Aren't they playing? β
Seeing the words suddenly spoken by the fifth floor, Guan Liang couldn't help but be confused.
"My friend is on the other side, it's that 4L, he just told me on QQ! You can't go wrong! β
The comrade on the fifth floor firmly declared that he was not mistaken, but this made Guan Liang and Yu Xi, who were still watching the game just now, confused.
"Brother Tiger, can you take a look at what's going on over there in the game?"
Guan Liang turned his head and said to Brother Hu, so Brother Hu opened the page of the live broadcast of the game on the web page, and soon the voice of the host and the commentary came from there.
"Gee, I really didn't expect this to happen."
The host said with a rather sighing expression.
"I'm very sorry to the audience, but due to some reasons on the Phoenix side, they can't participate in the next matches in this tournament, so their opponents will automatically enter the next round...... We would like to say sorry to all the fans who have been waiting in front of the computer for the Phoenix match. β
From the host's speech, it is not difficult to understand a general situation at present, the Phoenix Club should have taken the initiative to abstain from the game, but the reason why they did so has not been explained by the host at all, and it is possible that even the organizer of the game does not know what is going on.
"Abstained? Isn't it a bit ...... to announce this so suddenly?"
Yu Xi couldn't help frowning at this time, it stands to reason that the Phoenix Club is not a newly established club, and it should be quite experienced in all aspects of public relations and emergency response, but this time it was not until before the game that he suddenly announced that he had abstained from the game, which made people have to speculate about what happened.
"You said that you would ask the two people on the other side directly, okay?"
"Well, anyway, let's try it first, if they can still come up and play ranked at this time, it means that it shouldn't be a big deal, but their club announced that it is a real thing to abstain......"
After entering the game, Guan Liang directly asked the Phoenix team in the opposite double row about the two-lane duo in the full-screen chat. 35xs
"Why didn't your team stop playing that game all of a sudden?"
"Ah Zhe suddenly felt unwell today and went to the hospital, and then our team leader accompanied him, and when he came back, the team leader told us directly that the game would not be played."
Song Binggu, the ADC of the Phoenix Club opposite, told Guan Liang about this without reservation, in fact, there is nothing to hide for this reason, and it is understandable to give up a game of not very high importance when the main players are unable to play.
"Oh, I see...... Meng Zhe: Has he had a cold and fever recently? β
"No, he rarely gets any of these minor ailments, although I don't know if there's something wrong with that part of his body, but our team leader seems to say he's going to have an operation or something."
"Surgery?! This seems to be serious! β
The other players in this game also began to chimed in, and the players in this segment must have known Meng Zhe's name to everyone, and suddenly learned that Meng Zhe was going to have surgery and had to worry about him.
"It's not an operation to break the muscles and bones, but I heard the team leader say that I need to rest for a week or two, anyway, there are no important games recently, and Ah Zhe himself said on Weibo that it is no problem."
Compared with the worries of other people, Song Binggu, who is Meng Zhe's teammate, seems to be more indifferent, which is also due to the trust relationship that has been cultivated between the players for so long, and they know very well whether Meng Zhe is really okay or strong.
"Okay then, I hope Meng Zhe can get better soon...... It's a pity, I'm still looking forward to the showdown between you and Li Yong and their team today. β
Guan Liang made a point of mentioning Li Yong and his team of Astrays at the end of the sentence.
"I also watched the game they just played, although I couldn't play against them today, but our two teams will meet sooner or later, and it will probably be the final of a major tournament at that time."
Song Binggu also looked quite expectant here, in fact, his attitude is not difficult to predict, for an excellent ADC player, seeing the wonderful operation of Wayne in the game just now, he must not help but want to compete with that opponent, and as he said, the next time these two teams meet, I am afraid that it will be at this level in the finals...... Due to the absence of the Phoenix Club, the attention of this large-scale offline event held recently has dropped a lot, but on the other hand, the suspense of this event has further increased, and who can win the championship in the absence of the Phoenix Club has become the most discussed topic among the audience.
"It seems that there is a lot of discussion on the Internet because of this."
On the morning of the second day after the Phoenix Club announced its abstention, Guan Liang and Yu Xi still arrived at the Internet cafΓ© early as usual to prepare for double-row training.
"Well, there are a lot of people talking about conspiracy theories or something, saying that Meng Zhe was refrigerated because he was at odds with the team management......
"There are a lot of guys who do this kind of good thing on the Internet, but the players of the Phoenix Club shouldn't care too much about these remarks, after all, no one knows what the truth is better than them, and most of them are old people in the professional circle."
"Yes, as a professional player, you still have to learn how to resist these pressures from the outside world, otherwise you are likely to be crushed by these rumors from the outside world."
As Yu Xi said, as a professional player, you must know how to resist these unnecessary pressures, after all, no matter who you are, it is impossible to be liked by everyone, but it is better to say that the better the player, the more likely it is to be maliciously slandered.
While chatting, the two finally entered the game and entered the BAN/PICK stage, which was still early in the morning, and most of the professional players were still asleep at this moment, so Guan Liang and Yu Xi also knew very well which players they would probably meet at this point in time.
"On the other side, I chose Sain directly, it seems that it is a starling......
When choosing people, Yu Xi found that the first floor opposite directly took a Sein, to be honest, Sein is not a very popular mid laner in the current version, but there are always some players in the passerby bureau who have a special love for certain heroes, so in the high segment, you often see the kind of passerby high scoring players with one or two heroes who are particularly strong.
"You choose a mid laner who can restrain him, otherwise it will be troublesome if you have to be brought up by Starling's Sain in this game......"
Guan Liang also knows very well how much strength the Starling's Sain has, in his hands, the hero of Sain seems to have evolved, whether it is in the lane or in terms of support, the Sene of the Starling always has a more accurate timing control ability than other players who use Sain.
"Guan Liang, what do you say would be the result if you let Meng Zhe's monster practice for a few days, and then let him compete with Starling?"
After choosing the hero, Yu Xi turned his head and chatted with Guan Liang.
"Meng Zhe wins ......"
Guan Liang answered Yu Xi's question straightforwardly, and in his opinion, this result was almost doomed.
"You're so confident, I think these passerby players who specialize in a certain hero are very likely to defeat Meng Zhe's monster by relying on thousands of sets of hero experience."
Yu Xi's side has a completely different opinion, in his opinion, although a monster like Meng Zhe has an unparalleled talent, but just let him practice for a few days, if he is still unable to beat the starling in the use of Sain, a hero.
"The talent gap is not something that can be bridged easily...... There may be an overwhelming difference in strength between players who practice 10 games and players who practice 100 games, but there is actually not much difference between players who practice 1,000 games and 10,000 games, which is why professional players are still talented in fighting in the end. β
Guan Liang's meaning is also obvious, although players like Starling have hundreds of more games in the use of a certain hero than others, but in fact, in terms of the practice of a single hero, the more you play in the later games, the smaller the practice effect, just like an inverse function, the lower the efficiency the later you go.
"Professional players are still talented in the end, I really can't refute this sentence, and I personally have a deep understanding of this...... But speaking of which, you didn't seem to have this attitude when I first met you before, right? At the time, you seemed to say that hard work was very important or something. β
"Because I didn't know you well at the time, it would seem that I was too conceited to talk about talent or something."
"So in your opinion, talent is much more important than hard work?"
Yu Xi continued to ask curiously, although he had been with Guan Liang for so long, Yu Xi found that although Guan Liang did not mean not to treat him as a friend, he obviously had reservations when talking about some things.
"Effort? I never compare effort to talent because that's the most basic thing...... As a pro, if you don't work hard, you might as well move bricks, and you have to know that you can't stop people who are more talented than you from working harder than you. β
Reality is not a tortoise and rabbit race, those gifted monsters don't take a nap in the middle of the fairy tale rabbit, but instead these guys will sprint with ten times more force than a tortoise.
This is the cruelty of reality, when a field matures, it is not the hardest-working group of people who finally dominate the field, but the most talented and hard-working people.
"Yes, yes, just like you guys got up earlier than me every day after coming back from vacation this time, I suspect that your previous habit of lying in bed has never existed at all."
Yu Xi couldn't help but complain about Guan Liang, indeed as he said, Guan Liang's daily practice time since he returned to school during the winter vacation was no less than that of Yu Xi's side, but many times Guan Liang would use some fragments of time to pay attention to the tactical changes in the professional circle.
In the process of the two of you, you and I say a word,The game finally finished choosing someone to start the process of reading the bar,In the middle of the lane, Yu Xi chose a snake girl to fight against the starling's Sain,The snake girl's damage burst ability in the early and middle stages can completely compete with Sain,Even before Sain's W skill takes effect, take the first step to remove Sain's shield,So that Sain has no chance to play explosive at allγ
"There's still a lot of pressure on the starling's Sain......"
After the normal start of the two sides in the early stage, the heroes on both sides reached the line separately, and in the process of the first few levels, Yu Xi's snake girl repeatedly wanted to consume the starling's Sein, but the starling's good position made Yu Xi's several Q skills failed to hit.
"Starling's Sain, this is with a movement speed rune...... It seems that he also knows that he can't be hit by Q casually when he fights the snake girl, otherwise the consumption will be too painful. β
Guan Liang couldn't help but turn his head at this time and glanced at Yu Xi's alignment, judging from Sein's movement speed, Guan Liang concluded that Starling should have used a set of specially customized movement runes, and the movement speed runes can have a good advantage against heroes like snake girls who need non-directional skills to hit before they can explode.
The Snake Girl's skill mechanism is more special.,Her Q skills and W skills are non-directional skills, so it will be a little deficient in the hit rate.,Especially the Q skill itself is also the same as the Q skill of the Death Song.,The probability of dodging the Q skill is still relatively large for players who are fast enough.γ
On the other hand, Snake Girl's E skill is a directional skill that mainly performs bursts, and there is such a special item in his skill description, the cooldown of E skill will be reduced to 0 when hitting an enemy in a poisoned state. 5 seconds, that is to say, if the other party is in a state of poisoning, the snake girl can convert all her blue amount into output in just a few seconds, this outbreak is quite terrifying.
Therefore, whether or not you can dodge the Snake Girl's Q skills and W skills is a matter of life and death for the heroes who are in the lane with the Snake Girl, and it is precisely because of this that Starling deliberately configured such a set of movement speed runes.
Until the twelfth minute of the game, Yu Xi's snake girl was constantly in an extremely depressed state, because Starling's Sain had no intention of going head-to-head with him, and the AOE damage caused by the W skill was all used by Starling to clear the line, which caused Yu Xi's side to be completely involved in the line.
On the other hand, Starling's Sein starts to wander after pushing the lane, which can pose a lot of threat to the enemies of several other lanes on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also reduces the chance of being gangk by the jungler and mid-laner heroes in the lane.
As a result, after the starling's Sain made a five-speed shoe and a pair of Dolan's super efficient support suits, Guan Liang and their side of the road frequently heard a burst of screams, and finally the ADC on this side was even more GANC to the point that he couldn't take care of himself and could only run to the middle lane to rub his experience.
"It's miserable......"
Guan Liang glanced at the dilemma of the lower road, the most terrifying thing about the hero of Sain is not only that he can play a high burst and control online, but also that this hero has super support ability after making five-speed shoes, and even many times even if he sees Sain in his vision, it is difficult to prevent Sain from going around directly and using Q skills to forcibly control the situation of cooperating with other teammates to play a wave of bursts and directly take away people's heads.
"This estimate hangs in the balance...... It seems that I still don't have the talent of Meng Zhe. β
Yu Xi couldn't help laughing at himself at this time, in fact, the reason why he chose the snake girl was because he had watched a video of Meng Zhe and Starling in the passerby bureau before, when Meng Zhe used the high explosive ability of the hero of the snake girl to perfectly restrain the starling's Sain, so that he had no chance of support at all.
And now, Yu Xi finally clearly understands what it means to be very plump in ideals and skinny in reality......
