"It's a gamble."
In the front row on the other side of the spectators, Morning Star, who was surrounded by a group of teammates from his own club, also came to the same conclusion. He could not help but look at Barren Snow Nightsong, who was sitting in the blue team's ADC seat not far away. He looked worried for his old friend.
"This is … he's going to stake everything on this."
Having fought alongside each other in the God team for many years, he was well aware of his old friend's character and temper. For example, Vayne did not choose to get a Mercury Belt when she returned to the city to update her equipment. Instead, she chose to go the pure offensive route. This was very much in line with his impression of Huangxue Nightsong's character.
Yes.
It made sense.
Because in the blue team's lineup, the top laner Big Tree and Jungling Prince were both pure tanky equipment. In order to stand firm in the front row and take damage, their damage output was far less than that of their opponents.
While a mid laner Sindera had the ability to burst out and kill people in one shot, it was not the type to sustain damage output. At most, it could take down one target in a group battle.
Then, the damage output would not be enough.
In this situation, Night Hunter Vayne, as the ADC, had to step up.
Vayne's development was already slow in the early stages of the game. If she got a Mercury Belt, it would certainly increase her survivability, but correspondingly, her damage output would not be enough.
If he were to go down the path of a pure output stream like he was doing now …
At least, it would ensure that her damage output would not be low.
Of course, just like many of the spectating God players, including the coaches, were worried and apprehensive, if Vayne couldn't protect her own life from the opponent's violent line-up, then no matter how strong her damage output was, she wouldn't be able to display it. It was equivalent to a waste.
But …
Huangxue Nightsong also had his own considerations.
"The opponent's Ice Lady, Sungirl, Man Swordsman, and Mantis are all rushing."
"They're all bursts."
"Even if I get a Mercury Belt, how much does it increase my chances of survival?"
At this moment, Huangxue Nightsong's expression was calm and steady. He methodically explained and answered to his teammates in the team's live chat channel. He paused, then slowly continued:
"So …
"Instead of being overcautious, why not —"
"Just this once!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura of the ace ADC of Team God's first team underwent an abrupt change. Unlike his previous calm and collected demeanor, it was as if a shiny longsword that was hidden in its sheath was being unsheathed inch by inch. The biting cold and sharp edge of the blade reappeared once more.
There was nothing wrong with seeking stability.
He did not forget Senior Number Five's personal guidance yesterday.
But at the same time … he did not forget his own style and temperament.
For the sake of learning something new, he had forgotten his roots … Forget about Senior Number One and Senior Number Five, even he himself wouldn't be able to forgive himself!
Furthermore —
Huangxue Nightsong's eyes drooped slightly.
It wasn't that his Vayne didn't stand a chance in the team battle with the Mercury Belt.
He still had some tricks up his sleeve.
It was just that … he needed a little bit of tactical operation and manipulation.
Below the stage, Number Five, who was at the back row of the spectators, turned her head and looked at her fiancé. She took the initiative to ask, "What do you think?"
Finally, his beautiful fiancée no longer seemed to be in a stalemate with him. Joy instantly flashed across Number One's face. When he noticed that his fiancée seemed to be waiting for him to frown slightly, he quickly restrained his expression and coughed.
"Yes.
"Not a bad choice.
"But if we follow this path, if we want to win the next wave …"
As he spoke, Number One's tone became calm again. His gaze inadvertently swept across the field.
"We have to …
"We have to lose the first wave."
…
The match had reached a little over twenty-five minutes.
The good news for the blue team was that Sindra had seized the opportunity of the male swordsman's movement in the middle lane just now. A wave of QE and two ultimate skills directly reduced Tyrone's HP to zero. Although the male swordsman still managed to escape by a hair's breadth, the blue team took the opportunity to press forward in the middle lane and finally demolished the opponent's outer tower in the middle lane.
This way, they could be considered to have won back some of their losses.
Although they were still at an obvious disadvantage in terms of defense towers, at least after the purple team's outer tower in the middle lane was removed, they could barely push their vision forward.
Correspondingly, in the upper half of the jungle … especially the terrain in front of Dalong Fjord, the blue team finally had some ability to fight for the right to speak.
Yes.
At this stage of the match, the focus had inevitably shifted to Dalong.
If the blue team took down Dalong, they would be able to obtain a chance to turn the tables. At the very least, they would be able to recover 20% or more of their current disadvantage. If the purple team obtained the Baron buff, they would have the means to forcefully break through the opponent's high ground.
Of course, before they had absolute confidence, neither the blue team nor the purple team would easily have any thoughts about Dalong.
However, the current rhythm was still in the purple team's control.
At the bottom lane, both top laners continued to be locked in a 1v1 stalemate. For the purple team, they were not in a hurry. Ice Lady Lisandro could slowly grind down the tower by herself. That way, they would be able to steadily demolish the opponent's last outer tower in the bottom lane.
At the same time, the other four heroes of the purple team gathered in the middle lane, ready to lead the troops forward once again.
They did not have to forcefully open it.
However, if they could seize the opportunity to kill off one or two key heroes, they could quickly turn to Fjord and open Dalong in the blink of an eye.
"Now … both sides can't afford to make any mistakes."
Among the spectators, a member of God team mumbled. More than one person was sweating for the blue team, especially the blue team's ADC, Vayne. After all, she did not even use a Mercury Belt. Instead, she walked the path of pure damage output. If she was killed instantly, she would really be the scapegoat.
At the same time —
On the blue team's side, in front of the computer screen on the ADC's seat, Huangxue Nightsong's expression was still calm.
However, the mouse in his hand was slightly clenched.
…
"A-turret-has-been-destroyed (A defense tower has been destroyed)."
Finally, the female system voice's announcement came from the bottom lane.
After a while, a new wave of troops finally entered the tower. Purple team's top lane, Lysandro, destroyed the second tower of the blue team's bottom lane without any further twists and turns. She steadily destroyed the tower, and the blue team's top lane tree had no choice but to continue retreating.
At this point, all three of the blue team's outer towers had been destroyed.
The situation had become more favorable for the purple team. The five blue team members who had retreated to the high ground could only fall into a more passive position.
"But it's still okay."
A slightly more optimistic member of God analyzed:
"The outer towers have been destroyed, but at least they didn't lose any lives. Moreover, the blue team has pushed to the high ground. If the enemy continues to suppress their troops, they won't be able to easily destroy the towers on the high ground."
Of course, this was the logic.
For the blue team, their field of vision had been reduced to the high ground. The only benefit was that it would be much easier for them to make all sorts of adjustments and provide support. They would not be pressured and suffer further losses by the enemy.
However, Huangxue Nightsong's expression did not relax in the slightest.
Because he knew that the enemy would not be so stubborn as to force their way through. After all three outer towers were destroyed, there was only one thing that could happen …
On the field.
Lin Feng's voice rang out in the purple team's live chat.
"Ice Lady, continue to suppress the bottom lane.
"Everyone else.
"Prepare your dragon. Let's go."
