To put it simply, the blue team's only advantage lay in the timing. The purple team's top lane Kainan's summoner's skill, [Teleport], was still on cooldown, while the blue team's top lane Lady Swordplay had [Teleport] in her hand.
Therefore, the situation seemed to have been reversed this time.
Kainan had to follow them, while the blue team's top lane Lady Swordplay could choose to lead the bottom lane's minions. If anything went wrong, she could immediately use [Teleport] to rush to the battlefield.
However …
For the blue side, they had to be careful as well.
After all, the purple team's formation was such that if Kainan seized the opportunity to use his ultimate skill, or if Ice Bird used her Ice Wall to block one of them, the purple team's focused firepower would be able to end the team battle in a short period of time. Lady Swordplay might not even be able to teleport in time.
At the same time, Lin Feng gave a reminder in the blue team's live chat channel.
"Policewoman, stand at the back."
"Wind Lady, protect her."
"Eleven, pay attention to Kainan's position. Let's distance ourselves from him first. Don't let them get a good opportunity."
They did not need to take the initiative to look for an opportunity to start the team battle. They just needed to temporarily hold back and let Terra's Lady Swordplay, Erilia, carry the bottom lane. Then, they would have a chance to take control of the tempo.
Therefore, the purple team, who were the opponents, needed to be a little anxious.
It was impossible for the other team to sit back and watch as Lady Swordplay carried them all the way to the bottom lane. Therefore, they urgently needed to start the team battle at the Dragon Fjord.
However, at the same time …
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. His gaze fell on Ice Bird in the purple team formation in the distance, and a sharp glint flashed in the depths of his eyes.
The other team did not dare to start the team battle so easily.
It was because the blue team had paid a huge price in the previous wave of water dragons to destroy Ice Bird's summoner skill, [Teleport].
Paying such a price …
All of this was to pave the way for this wave of events in the first place.
Of course, this was also akin to dancing on the tip of a knife. Every step had to be taken with extreme caution. Although Saberina's solo carry was putting pressure on their opponents, their blue team only had four people in Dragon Fjord. If they made even the slightest mistake and allowed their opponents to seize the opportunity to force a team battle, their team would definitely collapse in an instant and end the match.
However —
Lin Feng subconsciously licked his dry lips. The light in his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
In a disadvantageous situation, if he couldn't make a bold decision, there would be no hope of turning the tables.
If he didn't take the risk, he would definitely lose.
And to take this gamble …
As long as he won the bet, then all the price he had paid before would be instantly paid back!
Even during the S1 season, he had encountered countless strong opponents and faced countless difficult and disadvantageous situations. Naturally, he had taken countless risks and gambled.
Back then, he had basically won all his bets.
However, the opponent at the gambling table this time was much more powerful and terrifying than anyone he had ever met in the past. But the bet had already been made, and all the chips had been pushed onto the table.
It was a fight to the death.
They had no choice but to fight!
…
River, in front of Dragon Fjord.
The blue and purple teams were still in a stalemate.
For the blue team, their top laner Saberina was leading the bottom lane, so they couldn't easily team up in a 4v5 situation. At the same time, they didn't need to team up either. They just needed to stall for time so Saberina could continue to put pressure on their opponents.
But at the same time, the purple team's conservatism and cautiousness was still a bit confusing —
Kenan didn't teleport, so he couldn't stop Saberina's minions from advancing. That meant that every second that passed would put more pressure on the bottom lane's minions. And since the blue team had five people on this side of the river, why didn't they find a chance to team up?
Yes.
It wasn't that easy to find a chance.
However, the problem was that the Purple Army didn't seem to have any intention of looking for an opportunity to strike at this side of the river.
They just kept alternating lines of sight. There wasn't a hint of aggression.
What were they stalling for?
What were they afraid of?
Seeing that the blue team's top laner Bladeswoman had already led her minions towards the purple team's second defensive tower, many of the surrounding KG members couldn't help but furrow their brows. One of the substitutes subconsciously muttered, "That's right.
One of the substitutes subconsciously muttered, "Isn't this … the same as Kenan?"
That's right, a few minutes ago, Katsura hadn't teleported, and Kenan had easily pushed away the blue team's second tower of minions to the high ground. This time, the tables had turned, and the blue team's top lane and Katsura's bottom lane were doing the exact same thing.
But at least in the previous wave, the blue team had taken the initiative to team up and forced Kenan to teleport over.
Right now, the purple team wasn't doing anything at all. Were they going to watch as their bottom lane's high ground was taken away by Saberina?
"This fight is really baffling!"
A few of the KG team members scratched their heads in frustration.
They couldn't understand it at all.
With the purple team's No. 1 and No. 5's strength and tactical ability, how could they make such a low-level mistake? It didn't make sense at all. Even if they were planning something else, they couldn't see it at all.
The KG team leader in the back row was also discussing with the head coach, Tony, in a low voice.
"Tony, do you see anything?"
Tony frowned. After a long while, he shook his head slowly.
"I can't."
"It seems … Their Excellencies No. 1 and No. 5 are … guarding against something."
… …
32 minutes and 30 seconds passed in the match.
Summoner's Canyon, bottom lane. The purple team's second defense tower had lost more than half of its HP to Tian Tian's top laner Saberina's first wave of minions. At the same time, a new wave of minions pushed forward.
The spectating KG team members could see that after this wave of minions, Lady Blade would only need to tank a few more hits before she could completely destroy the second tower.
One full HP tower.
Just like that, it was about to be flattened without any reason or hindrance.
At the same time, far away in the upper half of the jungle at the Dragon Fjord, the blue and purple teams were still in a stalemate. They had almost used up all their vision slots and queued up for a round, but the team battle still hadn't started.
The blue side was cautious enough. Policewoman maintained a safe position at the back, and a few W-skill metal clips blocked most of the river's route. Clockwork Spirit also had [Flash] in hand, so there wasn't much pressure on him.
However, the performance of the heroes on the purple side in the past one or two minutes was truly frustrating.
Kenan was in the front row, so it was hard for him to find an opportunity.
But Spider and Ice Bird, the two core heroes of the purple team, had been floating around like bystanders. They didn't even use any skills. Spider seemed to have lost his edge and became more conservative. Ice Bird didn't even show off her godly hand speed again. She didn't even use the W-skill Ice Wall. She just hid at the back of her team's formation.
How was this the senior No. 1 and No. 5 that the KG team members were familiar with?
If they didn't know better, they would just think that the two players on the purple team were at the level of the most common passerby players.
Under such an inexplicable situation, the Blue Army regained the initiative bit by bit.
But at this moment, the blue team —
In front of the computer screen, Lin Feng didn't look happy at all. Instead, he became more serious.
