On the internet, the normal players watching the livestream on the various streaming platforms were having a hard time understanding how the purple team was able to win so easily.
However, for the professional players who were also watching the battle, this result was not surprising at all.
For a top-tier dark battle like this, the blue and purple team's lineups were the best of the best. As long as one side had the absolute advantage and initiative, it would be very difficult for the other side to turn the tables. This was because the other side would not easily give the other side any openings or opportunities to take advantage of.
On the other hand, if the blue team had the upper hand in the early to mid-game, with the strength of Phoenix, Autumn, and Seven, even if the purple team had the world's strongest mid player, Han Shihao, they wouldn't be able to turn the tables easily.
Of course, based on the battle that had just ended, there were a few other important factors that contributed to the purple army's victory.
"Three reasons."
Seoul, Korea. A group of Fate members gathered together in the training base of Fate's Club. As the team's ace mid laner, Moon held up three fingers and analyzed the situation calmly and objectively.
"First, Spearman is too well-developed."
Indeed, after the release of the new patch in Season S6, Spearman was reworked. His role was almost immediately switched from ADC to jungler. In these three days of Nightingale's dark battle, countless teams and professional players discovered the strength of this hero in the jungler position.
It was almost certain that he would become a T1 jungler hero in the future.
A well-developed Spearman was almost as useful as a swordswoman during the peak of the new patch.
He could deal damage and tank.
He could take on three opponents at once.
"Second, Temptress is too well-developed."
Moon's analysis continued, and as soon as he said this, the other members of the team also nodded subconsciously, expressing their agreement as if they felt the same way.
After a few seasons, everyone knew exactly how fierce the Enchantress could be once she matured in the early and middle stages of the game.
Not to mention …
This was Han Shihao's mid laner, Temptress.
It was almost at the level of the world's strongest Temptress.
Everyone knew that Han Shihao's mid laner, Temptress, had maintained an astonishing 100% win rate in the professional league. It was not surprising that Temptress won this dark battle.
"Third —"
When it came to the third point, Moon paused, and a strange look flashed across his face.
"On the purple side, the coordination of the midfielders in this round is too good."
Even though Moon was one of the Yonkō (Four Emperors), he couldn't help but feel a little shocked by the tacit cooperation between Lin and F in the middle jungler match.
It was important to note that SSK's strongest point was not just Han Shihao's midlaner, but also his perfect coordination with his jungler, MAFA.
During the S5 season, SSK's Mid Jungler Duo was even officially recognized by Boxing Incorporated as the strongest Mid Jungler Duo in the world.
But from the looks of the dark battle just now — —
The teamwork between Lin's jungler and Han Shihao's mid-laner Enchantress …
It was not inferior to the teamwork between Han Shihao and MAFA!
This was simply unimaginable!
…
"I don't have any chemistry with that guy!"
Lin Feng said angrily in the private room of the Internet Cow Internet Cafe.
Tang Bingyao nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, yeah. Lin Feng is the best."
Ceng Rui was speechless, but he was too lazy to continue arguing with a certain someone over such a trivial matter. Anyway, everyone could see whether there was a tacit understanding or not. However, who asked a certain someone to be enemies with that F back then …
Speaking of which, it was quite amusing. Back in the day, the two of them were regarded as each other's strongest rivals, but now they were able to play side by side with each other even more amazingly well.
The person who understands you the most is your opponent. This saying is not wrong at all.
After snorting twice, Lin Feng was full of fighting spirit as he entered the next round of the Dark Battle.
"Today's game feels pretty good. Let's try winning streaks!"
At the same time …
Seoul, South Korea, SSK Club's training ground.
In the training room, the members of SSK Team One and Team Two were still discussing the Nightingale match that had just ended. They were all thinking hard about Lin's background and identity.
Even Team One's jungler, MAFA, couldn't help but furrow his brows. He was also wondering which professional esports team had a guy like Lin. His jungler's skill and awareness were so outstanding …
More importantly, where did the chemistry between him and his mid laner, Han Shihao, come from?
The amazing chemistry between Lin Feng and Yao Ji …
It was as if they'd been fighting side by side for many years!
It didn't make sense at all!
Han Shihao was still sitting in front of the computer screen. He did not participate in the discussion of his teammates. At this time, he was not arranged to participate in a new round of Dark Battle, so he chose to open a new round of Dark Battle and began to observe the battle again.
The match he was watching was a match in which Lin was participating.
In this round, Lin was in the purple team.
He switched from the jungler to the mid laner.
Coincidentally, it was Yao Ji's turn.
The match lasted a total of 29 minutes from start to finish. Han Shihao watched for a full 29 minutes, not saying a word from start to finish.
But his gaze …
It was fixed on Lin's mid laner, Yao Ji.
… …
Night slowly fell.
On the third day, the Nightingale dark battles seemed to be getting more and more intense.
J, who hadn't appeared in the first few matches, also appeared in the seventh and eighth round of the dark battles.
In the eighth round, Lin Feng was once again matched up against J in group A.
Lin Feng didn't even think about it. He snatched the top lane position and prepared to fight J head-on in the top lane.
He chose the top laner, Sister Knife.
J, on the other hand, chose the top lane, Ike.
Thirty-six minutes later, the dark battles in Group A came to an end.
Lin Feng's purple team won by a hair's breadth. In the last wave of the Dragon, he took out the blue team's ADC, Little Pao, and killed the mid laner, Clockwork Demon. In a single push, he destroyed the opponent's base crystal.
However, even though he had won, Lin Feng, who was in the Internet Cow Internet Cafe booth, collapsed into his seat after the match ended. His back was already drenched in sweat.
He was drenched in cold sweat.
"Phew!"
Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief. He still felt a lingering fear when he thought back to the match.
"That Ike … was a little scary."
He had won the match, but in all fairness, he had lost the top laner duel against J on the top lane.
After being gank by the opponent's jungler and having his kill taken away by Ike, in the next ten minutes, he was almost completely suppressed by Ike. In the middle of the team battle, Ike also led the tempo a few times, pressuring the purple team into a great disadvantage.
If it weren't for the fact that the opposing ADC and mid laner weren't that strong and that they made a few mistakes in the middle and late stages of the team battle, allowing his Swordsis to seize the opportunity to forcefully kill them, Ike would have been able to carry the entire blue team by himself.
But even if he won, Lin Feng's Blade Sis still lagged far behind Aike's in terms of KDA and other statistics.
Tang Bingyao comforted Lin Feng.
"It's fine. Lin Feng, you weren't the main top lane in the first place."
Lin Feng cheered up.
"That makes sense!"
"If I let that guy play the mid lane, I'll make sure he dies! Hahaha!"
