In the fourth round, it was finally Lin Feng's turn to play.
Tang Bingyao had played one round as an AD, and Ceng Rui had played two rounds as a support. Now that it was Lin Feng's turn, he naturally had to report his position as a mid.
However, there were only about 30 participants in this year's Nightingale Dark Battle, so it was impossible to assign everyone to the ideal main position in every round of the competition.
For example, in a team of five players, there was a high chance that two players would play as a mid, or two players would play as a jungler. In that case, there would be a conflict.
If there was a conflict, there had to be coordination.
One situation was for the participants to make adjustments in private. They would discuss and coordinate the conflicting positions. One of the two mid laners would be moved to the support or ADC role.
In another case, if the two players with conflicting positions refused to compromise, the administrator would have to step in and force the allocation.
For example, if a European professional support player was in the same group as Autumn, the administrator would simply assign him to another position even if he didn't want to change positions.
Otherwise, how could you compete with the world's support god?
What a joke!
Lin Feng's team was in such a situation.
He had been assigned to Group B in the fourth round of the tournament. The other top, support, and AD positions were all fine, but it just so happened that he was in the mid. The other player in the same group was also a mid.
Coincidentally or uncoincidentally …
It just so happened to be Shi Hang.
Shi Hang had learned from Tian Tian about Lin Feng's sockpuppet ID in the Nightingale secret battle, so he immediately recognized "Lin" and sent a message to Lin Feng.
「 Lin, it's you? 」
Lin Feng typed back.
「 Yeah. 」
「 What the hell? 」 Shi Hang sent a speechless emoji. 「 What a coincidence! Our positions clash! 」
「 How about I go jungler? 」 Lin Feng didn't mind.
「 Forget it. How can I ask you to give up your position for me?
"Forget it, forget it. How can I ask you to give up your seat for me? I'll just be the jungler. "
If it had been someone else, Shi Hang wouldn't have easily given up the mid lane position that he was good at. After all, he had held his breath in the Nightingale Dark Battle and wanted to rush up the leaderboards. It was reasonable to say that he would have to play the mid lane position that he was best at in order to have a better performance and get a better KDA.
Unfortunately, he had run into Lin Feng.
Then there was really nothing more to say.
Shi Hang didn't have the slightest bit of a temper when he gave the mid position to Lin Feng. He also couldn't complain about it. Otherwise … With Lin Feng's status in the past, Shi Hang couldn't accept the fact that Maple took the initiative to give up the mid position.
Lin Feng didn't mind. When he saw that Shi Hang was taking the initiative to give up his seat, he accepted it without hesitation.
"Alright!"
"Then our Center-Jungler Combo will kill everyone!"
"Let's go KDA!"
…
Lin Feng and Shi Hang were able to solve the small problem of the conflict between the two of them in private without any problems.
Soon, the fourth round began.
The two teams in Group B entered the battle room to take turns choosing bans. After a while, the blue and purple teams' lineups came out.
Lin Feng was on the blue team. Lanbo was the top lane, Yasuo was the jungler Excavator, and the adc was Vengeance Spear and support Buron.
On the opposite side was the purple team. Swordgirl was the top lane, Victor was the jungler Blind Monk, and the adc was the Explorer and support Wind Girl.
The one in charge of the spectator task was one of the administrators of the Dark Battle MSN group. He was the North American COG team's top laner Seven. When he saw the blue and purple teams' lineups, Seven's eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment.
He recognized the ID of the blue team's jungler Excavator.
He was a professional mid laner in China's LPL division.
"Addisi."
And in his impression, this Addisi was an old professional player in the S1 season. He had entered the Nightingale Dark Battle MSN group a long time ago. He seemed to have just returned to the professional circle a while ago, and his performance in the LPL division in the new season was quite good.
But such a China professional mid laner …
Why would he voluntarily compromise and give up his mid laner position?
Seven's eyes fell on Yasuo's ID in the blue team. He frowned slightly.
lin？
A newcomer invited by Nian Thirteen?
Who the hell is this guy?
… …
Putting aside Seven's confusion, when the game entered the loading bar, Ceng Rui, who was sitting next to Lin Feng, suddenly stared at the ID of the purple team's adc, Explorer.
stout。
"That Izreal on the other side …"
"I think he's the adc I met in the first round."
Lin Feng suddenly understood.
"That's the purple team's Jinx, right?"
"Oh, I remember now. Yes, yes, yes, it's this guy. I think he's a professional adc from a Korean team …"
"This guy, he seems to be pretty excited just now."
The reason Lin Feng had an impression of this Korean adc was because when Ceng Rui played Buron's support in the first round, Jinx was the adc opposite him.
Jinx was good, but he didn't give off a good impression.
After gaining the bottom lane advantage in the first half of the game, Jinx began to provoke Lin Feng in all sorts of ways. He even had Berserk Loli make some mocking gestures. He even tried to humiliate Lin Feng in the final wave of demolishing the base.
"Even among professional players, there are some who are uncultured."
Lin Feng asserted. Then, he announced confidently,
"It's fine.
I'll teach him a lesson this round! "
… …
As the system's gentle and pleasant female voice rang out, the ten heroes of the Blue and Purple Armies appeared in the springs of their respective bases.
The match officially began.
Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui, who were sitting next to Lin Feng, couldn't help but hold their breaths. They subconsciously felt nervous for Lin Feng.
After all, in the previous few matches, they had always played bottom lane, a duo lane. Although their opponents were far stronger than them, they still had teammates who were also world-class players to rely on.
However, the mid laner position was different.
In this match, Lin Feng was going to rely on himself to fight against the opposing mid lane.
Although they knew that Lin Feng's strength was at the peak of the game, and he stood at the top of the pyramid in the world of professional esports, that was all in the past. They didn't know how much Lin Feng had recovered from his injuries.
Only Lin Feng was confident.
He knew exactly what kind of condition he was in right now.
He wasn't as good as he was in the past.
But he hadn't stopped recovering recently. He might have hit a small bottleneck, but as long as his opponents weren't at the level of the Four Emperors or Seven Kings …
That was enough!
Game time: 1 minute and 50 seconds. In the middle lane, the blue mid laner Yasuo and the purple mid laner Victor were facing each other.
3 minutes and 15 seconds.
Yasuo soloed the opponent's Mechanical Pioneer.
The system's female voice's announcement of the kill came out of nowhere, startling everyone.
"First blood! — — "
For a moment, whether it was Blue or Purple, their teammates, or their opponents, all the world-class players couldn't help but be shocked.
First blood in the middle lane?
So fast?!
Shanghai, Shanghai, in the training base of the Rapid Water team, Shi Hang, who was controlling his Jungling Excavator and was about to continue farming in the wild, subconsciously gasped.
"Holy shit …"
"Maple, why is he so strong today?"
Meanwhile, in front of the computer screen in the NetCube Internet Cafe.
Yasuo, who had just taken a life, calmly retreated from behind Victor's corpse. Lin Feng's eyes were burning with the flames of battle intent.
(This feeling …)
(Not bad!)
