Chapter 636: Another Rising Star
After the game with Tengda E-sports, Xia Chiyu and the four of them can take a break for a while. In the following games, Xu Shuo has already ordered that Lao Hei, Xiaobai and the twin sisters will play until they get the right to play in the group. This shouldn't be difficult, Xia Chiyu has also watched the games of several other teams, to be honest......
Of course, they are all very good teams, but the foundation is not so solid, and there are not many mistakes in combos, but there are often mistakes in cooperation, such as their own teammates feint to attack the opponent's support, but actually attack the opponent's ice method, and then do not deceive the enemy, but deceive their teammates.
As a result, in the end, your teammates ran to hit the opponent's support, and you ran to hit the opponent's ice technique, resulting in the dispersion of firepower, and the enemy concentrated firepower to beat violently, resulting in the loss of the game. This is all an obvious mistake in cooperation, and the tacit understanding is insufficient. Of course, there are also cases of combo mistakes, and there are even low-level mistakes.
Combo mistakes are actually quite normal, and occasionally failure to calculate damage leads to failure to break protection and the like, which is normal among professional players, but low-level mistakes are those that are not hindered, do not calculate the damage well, causing the enemy to recover from the hitstun, not even finishing a set of damage, and even being backhanded by the opponent.
These teams, in Xia Chiyu's view, do not pose a threat, as long as there are no accidents, the last group C will qualify for their team and Tengda E-sports. However, at present, it is only the group stage, and it is only the top eight of the game, and the game between the eight teams after that is the pinnacle of the game AO.
The teams that have the ability to appear now are more or less like them and Tengda E-sports, preserving their strength.
Although it is said to preserve strength, the strength of the four of Lao Hei and Xiao Bai is not bad at all.
Let's not talk about Lao Hei and Xiaobai, the golden partner of 2V2, according to the three of Sun E-sports, they have maintained an undefeated 2V2 record before entering Feihong Technology, which is quite powerful.
With the two of them here, if you just draw one of Xia Chiyu's four people on the court, you can play a very exciting game. And Wang Yiyi and Wang Weiwei are more inclined to Xia Chiyu's school, and the two of them also have space-time spells, relying on time and space spells to implement unexpected tactics to quickly decide the battle situation, which is similar to Xia Chiyu's style of play.
After that, Gu Qinyan, Lao Hei and Xiaobai were on the field, and the team facing them was the GT team, and the combination of the other party was a classic combination of rangers, big sword knights and auxiliary mages.
The arena is chosen as the Blade Mountain Arena, this map is a little restrained for the melee profession, and the opponent is a combination of two ranged and one melee combat, while the speed e-sports side is a combination of two melee and one range, so from this point of view, their team is at a disadvantage, and those who know a little bit about this know it.
Immediately after the opening, the opponent went to the bridge, ready to occupy a vantage point on the bridge. And Gu Qinyan, Lao Hei and Xiao Bai were not in a hurry to get on the bridge. This map is not only very restrained for their profession, but also has some limitations for Xiaobai's skill setting, his skill setting is destined to fight positional warfare, and this map "ups and downs" is too great.
Basically, the battles on this map are all running back and forth on and off the bridge, so there are certain limitations to Xiaobai's wind wall skills.
The specific fight depends on their play. After Xiaobai entered the field, he first erected a wind wall on the two slopes on the side of the bridge, and then rushed towards the other end of the bridge occupied by the GT team. Xia Chiyu secretly screamed to himself, because the wind wall could speed up the movement of his own team members, and it could also reflect the enemy's long-range attacks.
As long as you build a wind wall on these two uphill and downhill slopes, you can avoid being kite back and forth on the bridge.
After Gu Qinyan and the three of them went to the bridge, Lao Hei put down a trap at the entrance of the bridge to seal the opponent's position, and then the three of them launched an attack on the opponent's auxiliary mage together. This is the simplest and most straightforward way to play a triple DPS combo when encountering a combo with a support mage, attacking the enemy's support. Use the powerful output ability to prevent the opponent from using the healing to consume you.
But it's often the simplest tactics that test the skill. However, the highlight of this game is completely on Lao Hei. Because Lao Hei is the only long-range on the side of the speed e-sports, in the other party's opinion, as long as they restrict the old black, they can limit the output capacity of the speed e-sports, and their assistance can also be in a safe state.
On Lao Hei's side, he carried the girder alone, using the trap to kite the opponent's big sword knight, while outputting damage, and moving flexibly on the bridge, everyone was stunned, and even Xia Chiyu couldn't help but praise it.
Lao Hei's technique, while quickly moving on the bridge, using traps and Xiaobai's wind wall to restrain the enemy's big sword knight, while cooperating with Gu Qinyan and Xiaobai to attack. First, he pretends to jump under the bridge when the enemy Greatsword Knight sticks to it, and then after luring the enemy Greatsword Knight to jump off the bridge, he uses it once in mid-air and jumps back to the bridge.
Backward jump this kind of displacement skill is ignorant of the environment, and it can also be released in mid-air, which immediately attracted applause from the scene, and taking advantage of this precious opportunity created by Lao Hei, Gu Qinyan and Xiao Bai have successfully played the opponent's auxiliary stun and started a combo, the opponent's ranger's attack was limited by Xiao Bai's wind wall, and the big sword knight fell under the bridge again, and the other party couldn't hurt at all.
And after the Great Sword Knight fell off the bridge, it was difficult to get on the bridge again, all kinds of restricted skills, coupled with the ranger's long-range flexibility and the special effects of the wind wall changing the attack track, could allow him to hit the enemy in the position under the bridge, so the Great Sword Knight simply gave up attacking Lao Hei and instead attacked Xiao Bai and Gu Qinyan, but unfortunately this made Lao Hei even more unscrupulous.
Not only did one person control the other two through hard control and deceleration, but also played tons of output, and Xiao Bai and Gu Qinyan became foils, Xiao Bai's existence was just to use the wind wall to help Lao Hei play output, and Gu Qinyan was responsible for dragging the other party's ranger and big sword knight, and the whole game was Lao Hei's personal show.
Whether it is positioning, combos or control, they are all impeccable, and the opponent completely fell into the rhythm of Lao Hei's attack, and was played around, and won the game without any suspense. In fact, Xia Chiyu felt that in addition to being strategic, he couldn't play better than Lao Hei.
There is no better than the commentary, the group shouted excitedly: "Zhang Zhicheng (Lao Hei) jumped under the bridge again after shaking off the enemy, and it is impossible to attack the enemy on the bridge in this position...... Yes! He used the wind wall of the white dragon player (Xiaobai) to change the flight trajectory of the skill! I actually hit! ……”
After winning the game, the three of them returned to the players' lounge and behaved calmly, especially the MVP of the game, Lao Hei, as usual, was not complacent or excited at all, as if he had gone out for a meal.
"Lao Hei is really amazing, he didn't make any mistakes at all, he was really coquettish." Xia Chiyu couldn't help but laugh.
"Ah, thanks for the compliment." Lao Hei scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed.
Xiao Bai patted Lao Hei on the back and teased: "Just kidding, the map of the Blade Mountain Arena is Lao Hei's best map, and the two of us haven't lost on this map." ”
"It's not like someone who played the whole soy sauce." Su Xing covered his mouth with a playful expression and squinted at Gu Qinyan with a lewd smile, Gu Qinyan didn't care, he didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and sat down on the edge of the rain.
"Good work." Yuxi patted Gu Qinyan's brain and smiled, "Good fight." ”
"That's it! Keep it up like this and qualify with a winning record! Xu Shuo said with full of fighting spirit, then turned his head and pointed at Wang Yiyi and Wang Weiwei and said, "In the next game, you two little girls, play with Xiaobai!" ”
Wang Yiyi and Wang Weiwei are also in very good shape today, dominated by the Blade of Time and the Blade of Space, while Xiaobai is more like an assistant, just using the wind wall to increase the movement of the sisters and the flight speed of the Blade of Time and Space, of course, they also won the game to the extent of crushing, and Xia Chiyu felt that in terms of excitement, they were actually inferior to the old black and white.
Because the four of them want to keep their skills, they can't expose the details, they can only use some basic skills, rely on strategy and a solid foundation to win, and Lao Hei and Xiaobai can show their skills unscrupulously, which is naturally not comparable to the game they played.
On that day, the game was played until 7 p.m., and they won the group with the first place. There is no suspense, the other team that qualified was Tengda E-sports, which qualified for the second place in the group stage with seven games, six wins and one loss. In between, this is the end of the group stage of Group C.
The next day is the final group of 3v3 matches, the group stage of Group D. In Group D, in Xia Chiyu's view, the only threat seems to be the WAT team, that is, the team that reached the final of the ring competition in the Yanxia Cup last time.
Therefore, Xia Chiyu paid a little attention to the group stage on the fourth day. The Wat team is a typical emerging team, with a wealthy boss behind it, relying on the ring tournament to play a good ranking in a non-popular tournament to accumulate fame, and then use the abundant funds to expand the team, strengthen the team, and strive for better results in the coming year.
Gu Lang They played a very bright performance in the ring last year, and the skill setting was also very creative, which drove the ****** of the AO ring match, and this year's ring match received much more attention than last year, which can almost be said to be comparable to the popularity of 2V2. And this year, their combination of playing in the ring has been transferred to a 3v3 competition and no longer plays in the ring.
From this point, Xia Chiyu could conclude that the skills of these three people should have changed a lot, so he deliberately ran over to watch their game. However, it is a pity that most of the games Gu Lang trio did not play in person, but let other main members play, apparently the team recruited a group of first-line professional players for 2V2 and 3V3.
"How rich is the boss behind these guys......" Xia Chiyu frowned and thought to himself.
From the strength of the players recruited by the other party, it can be seen that they are not at the same level as other teams, and they are definitely first-line players who are poached from other teams. After the commentary introduced, sure enough, the members of this team are retired members from the champion and runner-up teams in the previous hot summer cup events.
According to the commentary, most of these retired members are players who have not lived a satisfactory life after retiring, so they chose to make a comeback and were favored by the senior management of the WAT team. However, Xia Chiyu has to say that after all, he is an elderly player who has retired, and like him, his reaction is obviously not as good as that of those young people, and he completely relies on experience and cooperation to support the situation.
However, Xia Chiyu is still relatively confident in his tactics, and he is confident that he can win when he encounters these retired elite professional players. Finally, the fourth day of the tournament ended, and the two teams that qualified for the group stage of Group D were the wat team and another team called BM.
Of course, the Wat team came up with an overwhelming victory of seven wins, while the BM team was a little reluctant to qualify, with five wins and two losses in seven games, and the team with the same score as them also had another MM team, so a playoff was held at the end, allowing two teams with the same score to play a BO5 match, and then the team that qualified.
At this point, AO's 3V3 group stage is over. The two teams that qualified in Group A are Feihong Technology and NT Team, the teams in Group B are Sun E-sports and ETG teams, Group C is Speed E-sports and Tengda E-sports, and Group D is BM and wat teams, eight teams have entered the quarterfinals this year.
It is worth mentioning that among these eight teams, only two teams are emerging teams, in addition to speed e-sports, another rising star WAT team, its brilliance is not inferior to speed e-sports.
This is the end of the first week of competition, and the next three days will be a mixed match between the defeated teams that did not qualify to determine their qualification for this Winter Cup. This ranking basically determines the ranking of each team in the world, and starting next week, it will be a two-week competition of 2v2 and the ring match, and Xia Chiyu and his team will have to participate in all three events.
However, in order to give the players in the team a little rest, Xu Shuo decided to let them play in shifts.
The four of Lao Hei will play the 2v2 game first, and then the event of the ring match will be handed over to Xia Chiyu and the four to solve, so that they can have a week to go back to their original city to rest. (To be continued.) )
