Chapter 436: Seeding Team Spots
Xia Chiyu didn't know if the artifact effect that Alboron said was true or false, but if this artifact really existed, then after it fell into his hands, he was confident that any of the princes in the current AO would not be his opponent. However, the authenticity of this matter has not been verified, so it is difficult for Xia Chiyu to draw conclusions.
But if the White Crane Company really updated the four artifacts tailored for the four of them, then the four of them might not need to be afraid of players with royal tools.
However, this is only a guess in the first place, and the authenticity of the artifact is unknown; Second, the chances of the four of them getting their hands on these four artifacts, and the artifact that happened to be suitable for their use, were infinitely close to zero.
But on the other hand, magic weapons, not only have a much larger explosion rate than artifacts, but their attributes are still applicable to every player. If this was the White Crane Company's plan against Asura, then Xia Chiyu could only say that this plan was too clumsy.
However, Xia Chiyu couldn't help Chen Feng and the others finish all the four copies of the crack in another dimension, and their new team members were facing their first official game after entering the speed e-sports, and the four of them, as veteran players, had to go to the scene to observe the performance of the new members, especially him, the captain.
Of course, it is "in person" in another sense. Nanhua City is still too far away, and the four of them don't participate in the game, just to watch a game and go to Nanhua City to watch the scene, no matter how you think about it, it's a bit too luxurious, so they finally chose to buy tickets to watch the game in the virtual arena.
It was a small game, but it attracted a lot of new teams.
First of all, there is Sun E-sports, which has played against Xia Chiyu and others before, and since their team is also a newly established team, it is not surprising that they will participate in such small-scale competitions to accumulate popularity. Because when they accumulate popularity and get good results in competitions many times, they will also be seeded.
And this is the final of the last ring match. It is from Speed E-sports to Sun E-sports, and the 2V2 finals are also participated by Speed E-sports, but the opponent is a new team in Nanhua City that specializes in playing 2V2, although it is only a new team that has just been established, but there are famous professional e-sports players in Europe, so as to reach the finals all the way.
This professional player is none other than the Spellcaster from Portugal. Of course, the braised egg is not his real name, but a similar transliteration of his foreign name, and it is also a nickname given to him by fans of the national costume.
There is an obvious difference between the world-class AO team and the national uniform, most of the swordsmen, knights and mages that can be seen in the national uniform, and most of the mages are ice, fire or thunder, like light mages, dark warlocks, fighters and assassins are very rare, not to mention the big cold of spellcasters, which are almost not seen in the national service.
But this is not the case abroad, where the professions in a world-class AO team are often colorful. On the contrary, mainstream professions such as swordsmen and knights are relatively rare.
This is because mainstream professions are more popular in the national server because of their popularity, simplicity to use, and traces to follow, such as the appearance of a certain Niu B's swordsman player, and then immediately many players will imitate it.
As a result, the more popular classes are, the more they are, and those that are less popular are struggling to survive due to the lack of player mining. In addition, the studio's various substitution phenomena are serious, whether it is the ladder of PVP or the level of PVE, they are all in place. And players who are willing to play those unpopular professions are true love, and they will not choose to fight on their behalf, so they are abused by those popular professions who play on behalf of them. The PVE level is not as high as others, and the PVP ladder is not as high as others, so you can only give up in the end.
But the situation is completely reversed.
Due to the fact that there are fewer outsuit studios. The game environment is better, and the PVP of the foreign server players is played by themselves rather than by the studio, so the more popular the professions, the more PK skills and lineups for these popular professions, which in turn makes it more difficult for these popular professions to survive, although they can make very beautiful PVP videos. But I couldn't get a good result.
"Yo, isn't that Gu Lang them? There are a few more newcomers. Wake up and look at the arena below. As spectators, they are able to see the members of the game on both sides.
On the side of Sun Esports, in addition to the four people they met in the Yanxia Cup last time, the Great Sword Knight Zhihui, the Swordsman Dahuang, the Ranger Tan Jining and the martial artist Gu Lang who was the captain, there are three more new members.
"It looks like everyone is expanding the lineup." Xia Chiyu sighed and said, "This year's Winter Cup." It's going to be a tragic fight again. Hopefully we will be seeded in this year's Winter Cup. ”
"It's not impossible." Lin Qianxue patted Xia Chiyu's brain: "Xu Shuo said, the Yanxia Cup has accumulated quite a lot of popularity for us, and as long as you win the runner-up or above in three online or offline competitions, you will be included in the top eight seeded teams next time." The premise is that the other teams remain in their current rankings. ”
Last time, Xia Chiyu and others became the ninth seeded team entirely because of the special situation, usually the number of seeded teams is fixed eight, and the top eight teams in the current national server popularity and performance rankings will be taken as the seeded teams, and these eight seeded teams will be separated from each other when assigning the matchup list, and will not meet each other before the top eight.
Therefore, Lin Qianxue's words actually mean "If you don't win more than three championships and runners-up, this year's seeded team will say goodbye to you."
In this game, AO is not actually a seeded team that will greatly increase the difficulty, and luckily not touching the seeded team is an exception, but there is a 75% chance that you will meet a seeded team in the quarterfinals to "keep the goal", and even if you can win, you will have to expose most of the skills of the main team, which will lead to a great disadvantage in the later games.
"Oh, the game is finally going to begin." Xia Chiyu smiled with interest.
At this point, the sponsor's nonsense is finally finished, and the two sides start the game. But this time, Sun probably doesn't plan to let their new members play, and Xia Chiyu can also understand that in order to fight for the seeded team, he will give priority to sending the main team in this kind of competition to achieve better results as much as possible.
Bringing those newcomers with them is just to give them some experience in the inconsequential tournaments like qualifying, and they don't usually get them to play in the finals. There are still a few irresponsible and wonderful coaches like Xu Shuo.
The first one on Sun's side was of course the Great Wilderness. Sun's routine is for Dahuang to clear the field first, accumulate advantages for his teammates and create a superior combat environment. And the first person sent by Speed E-sports is actually Xiaobai...... In Xia Chiyu's opinion, there is no doubt that it is more appropriate to let the twins play.
Xiaobai is a swordsman, and he is also a non-mainstream swordsman who uses a sword, so he suffers a little bit in the face of a swordsman who uses a big sword like Dahuang. Because the defense of the two sides is about the same, but the damage is obviously higher in the wilderness, and in order to cooperate with Lao Hei, Xiaobai's skills are targeted, it can be said that he is biased towards 2V2, and it is a waste to use it to fight in the ring.
Then, the map randomly selected the map of the Sword Guardian Tower, and the building only had a huge holy sword in the center.
At the end of the countdown, the members of both sides officially appeared from the cell doors. Dahuang immediately used a flash to rush towards the field. Occupying the center of the map first, firstly, to get stuck in the position to avoid the opponent's approach, and to jam the opponent's view when he is at a disadvantage, and secondly, to make it easier for him to destroy the buildings on the map.
The skill feature of the Great Wilderness is that it can provide itself with an accelerated state after destroying buildings, and after leveling the field, the Great Wilderness can die. The members who come on the field after the Great Wilderness will adjust according to the enemy's skills and configuration to play the best restrained play. It doesn't matter if the Great Wilderness doesn't defeat anyone, he's just a stepping stone.
However. Although the Great Wilderness is only a stepping stone, it should not be underestimated. Under certain circumstances, if the buff stacks too high, the speed of the Great Wilderness will become very terrifying, turning him into a huge threat.
But Xiaobai's side is actually more dominant in speed, and he has given himself the Wind Technique. Blink is slower but travels longer, has a shorter cooldown, and is able to deal damage.
Of course, in fact, few people at the scene knew that the non-mainstream swordsman with the ID name "Qibai" was the famous Feihong Technology's martial artist Xiaobai, so everyone bet on the runner-up of the Yanxia Cup Ring Competition, Sun.
After Xiaobai's flashing is over. Spun slightly in place, causing a sharp whirlwind, and then a second flash was unleashed. The special effect of the Great Wilderness's great sword is that it can stab forward for a distance after an instant, but the speed of this stab is not fast, so in the end, it is Xiaobai who preemptively occupies the best position of the Sword Saint Terrace, and swings his long sword towards the Great Wilderness to slash out a hurricane.
How to choose the position is important, if both sides stand on the edge of the pillar at the same time, it is likely to turn into an endless card view of the war of attrition. Therefore, as long as Xiaobai can come to the half of the Great Wilderness first and occupy the pillar where the Great Wilderness is located, he can prevent the Great Wilderness and him from getting stuck in the perspective around the pillar. In desperation, Dahuang had no choice but to eat Xiaobai's knife.
The original intention of the Great Wilderness was to take this blow and go around the back of the pillar, so that it could destroy the building and stack the buff on itself. At this time, Xia Chiyu realized how powerful Xiaobai was in the Great Wilderness.
Xiaobai's skill of Wind Wall is strong in positional warfare. In other words, fighting in a fixed area is Xiaobai's forte, and the Great Wilderness happens to have to fight around the edge of the building. In this kind of map with only one building in the center, it can almost be said that Xiaobai fell into the rhythm of Xiaobai's game at the beginning.
This knife was like a sharp blade that brought out a few lines of blood on the Great Wilderness, and at the same time threw the Great Wilderness into the air.
The Great Wilderness also reacted quickly, landing on the ground in a flash in mid-air, and then swinging his sword towards the Sword Saint Stage.
Xiao Bai also immediately made a countermeasure, he swung his sword and slashed out a wall of wind, and then jumped towards the wall-like hurricane. Due to the catapult effect of the hurricane ratio, Xiao Bai made a sharp turn, instantly caught up with the Great Wilderness that went around the back of the Sword Saint Stage, and raised the sword in his hand to block the sword that hit the Holy Sword Platform in the middle.
"Wind Breaker!" After catching this knife, Xiaobai did not choose to carry it hard, but rotated his body, and the dance of the knife brought out a whirlwind. This whirlwind not only bounced off the weapons of the Great Wilderness, but also blew the Great Wilderness into the air.
This time, Xiaobai didn't wait for the Great Wilderness to return to the ground in an instant, so he jumped towards the wind wall, and then used the principle that the contact angle will change depending on the ejection angle to catch up with the Great Wilderness in an instant, and the Taidao swept past the Great Wilderness: "Wind Strike!" ”
Dahuang let out a cry of pain, but the damage was not high, and he didn't hit a hard straight, Dahuang stabilized his body in mid-air and fell to the ground. And Xiao Bai took advantage of this opportunity to hit the second wind wall, and the Great Wilderness got a chance to breathe, swinging his sword and slashing on the holy sword platform, the gravel splashed, and a faint white wind also appeared on Xiao Bai's body, and he obtained a buff that increased his speed.
"Windrush!" Xiao Bai unleashed the Wind Blasting Technique on himself, and then swung his sword to strike the third Wind Wall.
The three wind walls formed a triangle, enclosing the Holy Sword Platform in the middle.
"This guy's position is complete, and the next step should be officially started, right?" Gu Qinyan hugged his arms and sneered.
As Gu Qinyan said, Xiaobai's "Dragon Gate Array" had already been set up, so he was ready to launch a fierce attack next. However, at this time, the Great Wilderness had also attacked the Holy Sword Platform three times, and now the speed has been significantly improved.
"Break the city!" Dahuang seems to realize that there is something wrong with these three wind walls, so he decides to use the acceleration effect on his body to temporarily suppress Xiaobai's wave and then destroy the building.
Xiao Bai flashed backwards and hit a blast wall, so the speed skyrocketed, and he came to the bottom of the Great Wilderness in an instant, holding the Taidao high above his head, his body rotated, and the Taidao danced with it: "Ascend the dragon scroll!" ”
The hurricane turned into a tornado and rose into the sky, passing over the Great Wilderness, bursts of sword light flashed from the tornado, and several blood mist erupted from the Great Wilderness, and the Great Wilderness was also carried into the air by the tornado.
At this time, Xiao Bai flashed again and rushed towards the other wind wall, but this time he took off into the air and came behind the Great Wilderness, the Taidao instantly slashed down, and used the momentum of this sword to use the instant flash to rush towards the wind wall. The wind wall instantly made Xiao Bai sped up, bounced to the other wind wall, and then rose into the air again, came behind the Great Wilderness, and slashed with his sword.
This blow knocked the Great Wilderness into a hard stun, and Xiaobai flashed towards the other wind wall again.
So, Xiao Bai used these three blast walls to keep flashing back and forth around the Great Wilderness, and continued to fencing until his instantaneous flashes were exhausted, and at this time, the Great Wilderness had already lost thirty percent of his blood, and his body fell to the ground.
