Indeed, in today's BO5 match against Shenyang University of Science and Technology, Lin Feng had used Clockwork Demon and Mechanical Pioneer in the first two games. Both were AP heroes that developed in the early game and gained strength in the mid-game.
It was completely different from Lin Feng's usual violent AD or AP Assassin style mid.
In fact, Lin Feng was making adjustments on his own.
On the one hand, it was because he needed to conserve his strength. After all, it was only the quarterfinals. In a situation where his opponents weren't giving him too much pressure, Lin Feng didn't need to use his ultimate hero in every match.
On the other hand, it was because he needed to further train and deepen his hero pool.
After all, his current goal wasn't just to be the champion of the National University League. In the Korean server's Champion's Bracket, if he wanted to reach the top five in the final few days, he would need to be able to choose the most suitable hero to deal with his opponents' different lineups.
Of course, at this moment, Lin Feng could choose to preserve his strength with ease, but his opponent on the field, Shenyang University of Science and Technology, was going all out.
Trailing 0-2, if they lost another game, they would be eliminated in the quarterfinals.
This result was far from the runner-up trophy they won last year.
They could not lose like this!
Shenyang University of Science and Technology finally showed their tenacious strength as last year's national runner-up team. In the third game, Shenyang University of Science and Technology on the purple side chose to protect the top lane in the early game.
The jungler frequently targeted the top lane, and even the support cooperated with the jungler to outflank the opponent's top lane outside the tower in the first five minutes of the game. Together with the top lane's Blademaster teammate, they took the head of Ryze, the top lane representative of the Shanghai Esports Association.
Zhang Hao's top lane Ryze was killed twice in the early game. Coupled with the loss of a large wave of minions and economy, the rhythm of the early game directly collapsed.
And Shenyang University of Science and Technology's top lane Blademaster took two kills in the early game, but she quickly developed.
A Peerless Blademaster who developed very smoothly in the early game was almost invincible in the early and middle game.
Shenyang University of Science and Technology relied on this advantage of the top lane to organize several groups in the early game, and forced a full 4,000 economy advantage in the first thirteen or fourteen minutes of the game.
Finally, in the 30th minute of the game, Shenyang University of Science and Technology on the purple side steadily snowballed the advantage to an unstoppable extent.
The middle lane gathered together and pushed up the opponent's blue high ground.
Swordmistress made the first move and instantly killed the blue team's ADC, Jynx. In the end, she got a beautiful triple kill.
The blue base crystal had been destroyed.
In the third match, the team from Shenyang University of Science and Technology won the match perfectly.
The audience applauded and cheered for the performance of the Shenyang University of Science and Technology team in this round. The audience was not stingy with their applause and encouragement.
"The strategy was executed beautifully."
Sun Ruinian from Zhejiang University's team couldn't help but nod as he watched from the front row of the spectator area.
"Shenyang University of Science and Technology … After all, they were last year's runner-up team. They are quite strong."
Zou Cheng, the mid-laner on the side, felt a wave of regret.
"Man, Lin Feng is only playing a mid laner, LuLu. It's going to be hard for him to turn the tide and play the role of a carry. Also, An Xin is playing Wild Boar. She'll be able to control the backline in the team fight. Even if her DPS can't keep up, she won't be able to one-shot anyone."
"If Lin Feng had played Yao Ji or a small mermaid, things would have been different."
On the Beijing Telecommunications Association's side, Zhang Hongyi, the support, couldn't help but sneer at the team's misfortune.
"Those guys from the Shanghai Telecommunications Association, they've gone too far.
"If they do this two more times, maybe Shenyang University of Science and Technology will really chase them down."
Although he was mocking them, in reality, Zhang Hongyi was just saying it to his heart's content.
Whether it was him or the other members of the Beijing Telecommunications Association's team, they knew very well that in a situation where they were down 1-2, Shenyang University of Science and Technology was facing an opponent like the Shanghai Telecommunications Association's team.
It was almost impossible.
Especially in the opening BAN selection segment of the fourth round of the game, someone from the Shanghai TV Association team chose his Mid Solo hero for this round.
…
"Well, I can't take it slow anymore."
Inside the arena, Lin Feng rubbed his chin thoughtfully and turned to look at An Xin.
"Steamed Bun.
"Try to help Haozi's top lane as much as possible."
"You don't have to come to the mid lane."
At the same time, a certain someone had already moved his mouse on the fifth floor of the purple square and selected his hero for this round.
Fishman Fitz.
Tidal Sea Spirit.
Here it comes!
Yu Ping's pupils shrank a little as he sat in the front row of the spectator area. A sharp light flashed in his eyes before disappearing.
As expected, that guy couldn't hold it in.
The last Fishman … Is he going to go on a killing spree again?
Thousands of kilometers away in Shanghai, Su Xue, who was watching the match live on her computer screen, also breathed a sigh of relief.
"That brat … He's finally going to show some of his true strength."
"Yeah, he should be able to win this match!"
… …
As it turned out, those who knew Lin Feng well were right to trust his mid-laner hero.
Four minutes into the fourth match, the Fishman completed a solo kill, taking away the health of his opponent's mid-laner hero.
More than six minutes later, the Small Murloc Fitz, who was the first to reach Level 6, forcefully activated his card again. He directly ignored his opponent's jungler who was crouching behind him and used his ultimate skill to deal a wave of damage to instantly kill his opponent's card. After that, he swiftly retreated.
At the eighth minute, the Shanghai Telecommunications Association's mid-laner joined the top lane.
He crossed the tower and killed the top laner on the blue side.
Another wave of strategic retreat. The instant his skills came off cooldown, he counterattacked and killed his opponent's top lane Card Master with a powerful teleport.
He took the opportunity to level the opponent's top lane and outer tower.
Ten minutes later, the Fishman's score reached 5/0/1.
Eighteen minutes later, the Fishman steadily surpassed Godlike.
The audience was dumbfounded. Was this really a match? Was this really a 'best-of-five' match in the quarterfinals?
Why did it look like a random matchup? Why did the Fishman go on a rampage and kill everyone?!
The male and female commentators on the commentary platform could not help but be dumbfounded. They were completely shocked by the dominating momentum and the rhythm of a certain someone's mid laner. It was as if he was crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
His opponent … was Shenyang University of Technology!
Although they'd heard that the Shanghai Telecommunications Association's mid-laner was very strong, even suppressing the Korean King of the Guangzhou Telecommunications Association's team, this kind of ridiculous strength was too much!
This was completely different from the previous three matches!!!
Below the stage, Chu Fang Nan couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face, feeling extremely gratified and happy.
That's right.
After recovering his strength to a certain extent, although the strength that Lin Feng could display now was not as good as when he was at his peak as Maple, in a competition of this level, as long as he was serious … he was absolutely invincible!
Game time: 24th minute.
The blue team, Shenyang University of Technology, chose to surrender after their three high ground routes were quickly destroyed.
Thunderous cheers and applause rang out in the competition venue. The audience was so excited that they almost stood up from their seats to pay their respects to a certain Superior Inferior Man-Fish who had won the last round.
The Shanghai Telecommunications Association defeated their opponent 3 to 1.
Advanced to the semifinals!
