"Life Extinguisher entered Windward Formation's line of sight. Wei Chen immediately had Windward Formation launch an attack. Chaotic Rain has already been released. Xiao Shiqin … Xiao Shiqin's Life Extinguisher dodged … "Pan Lin's tone had been excited at the start of the attack, but the ending was a bit anticlimactic. Of course, he didn't want it to be like this. He really wanted to say how surprised and flustered Xiao Shiqin was by Wei Chen's sudden attack.
Unfortunately, Life Extinguisher charged diagonally, nimbly circling around the Chaotic Rain's area of effect. Xiao Shiqin's reaction was very timely. He wasn't flustered at all. Clearly, Wei Chen's Windward Formation had stayed here to attack. He didn't have the surprise of Li Yibo's so-called "reverse psychology on top of reverse psychology". Xiao Shiqin had been on guard since long ago!
After dodging the Chaotic Rain, Xiao Shiqin was about to counterattack when Windward Formation's curses arrived. A Hexagram Prison suddenly rose up, attempting to seal him. Unfortunately, Xiao Shiqin reacted in time again, controlling Life Extinguisher to dodge. At the same time, he released a Mechanical Seeker. The small robot cheerfully went to find a target to self-destruct.
At such a distance, Xiao Shiqin obviously didn't expect this skill to hurt Windward Formation. It was mainly to create some sort of distraction, distracting the opponent so that the opponent wouldn't attack him so easily.
However, Wei Chen acted as if he didn't see this small robot. Windward Formation waved his Death's Hand and continued to poke at Life Extinguisher, casting curse after curse. It wasn't until the small robot was about to reach his feet that Death's Hand casually pointed. A Shadow Arrow shot out. With a boom, the small robot was smashed to pieces. Windward Formation wasn't affected at all, continuing his offensive.
"Xiao Shiqin tried to use a Mechanical Seeker to distract Wei Chen, but he clearly failed. Wei Chen really is an experienced player. This sort of trick can't affect him at all." Pan Lin quickly commented after seeing this scene.
"After defeating two clearly inexperienced opponents in a row, Xiao Shiqin needs to adjust. He can't keep thinking the same way!" Li Yibo sighed.
However, Xiao Shiqin didn't need anyone to remind him of this.
Seeing that his little distraction had no effect, Xiao Shiqin sighed at his opponent's shrewdness. As a player who had entered the Alliance in Season 4, Xiao Shiqin didn't have any experience fighting against Wei Chen. In order to prepare for this match, he looked up a few old match recordings. From a tactical point of view, watching recordings from back then wasn't very helpful, because Glory was based on the game. Every time the level cap was raised, it was the same as changing tactics again and again. Watching recordings from back in the Level 50 era wouldn't help you grasp the current playstyle of your opponent. Xiao Shiqin just wanted to understand his opponent's playstyle from old matches. Because from the current Challenger League, Xiao Shiqin felt like he didn't understand enough. In the Challenger League, there was too much of a disparity between the strong and the weak, so there was no point in looking at it.
After looking at old Team Blue Rain recordings, Xiao Shiqin's deepest thought was: Huang Shaotian really did inherit Team Blue Rain's glorious tradition of trash-talking!
At the same time, Xiao Shiqin once again felt gratified by Yu Wenzhou's lack of hand speed. Otherwise, Blue Rain's two ace players might have completely inherited Team Blue Rain's trash-talking style. That would have been a disaster for the entire Alliance.
Luckily, luckily … …
After rejoicing, Xiao Shiqin naturally understood Wei Chen's playstyle. This was a player who focused on attacking the opponent's mind. Many times, when he played around with his opponent, it might seem disrespectful, but it was clearly just a method he used to disturb his opponent's mind. This was because every time he played around with his opponent, there would be a wave of extremely sharp attacks.
As for the Warlock, this class that specialized in control, it was practically tailor-made for this playstyle. As for whether Wei Chen developed this playstyle because of this class, or whether he chose this class because of this playstyle, Xiao Shiqin didn't know. From studying the match data, Xiao Shiqin deeply felt that when facing this opponent, he needed to have a calmer and more stable mentality. And this was actually very difficult. A person could restrain their own actions, but how could they restrain their own heart? So from the match data, it could be seen that many clearly strong players lost miserably against Wei Chen. The disparity between the results was too great, and it wasn't at their level at all.
But there were exceptions. The most prominent one was sitting offstage right now, Ye Xiu, who had become a member of Wei Chen's team. In the competition back then, there was a situation where one side was about to take advantage of the other side, but the other side was already in front of them. Without distinguishing between right and wrong, they would give a few slaps to the face, followed by a series of painful beatings. They would beat you until there was nothing left, because you were already dead.
That was it … …
Xiao Shiqin had found a way to deal with Wei Chen, and the one who gave him the greatest inspiration was Ye Xiu, who needed to win together with Wei Chen.
Life Extinguisher, who had been dodging Windward Formation's attacks, suddenly stopped, hit by a Voodoo Spell.
It was just a status effect that continuously lost health. Xiao Shiqin laughed. Life Extinguisher didn't dodge this attack, but instead forcefully attacked.
Hunter!
This wasn't a probing attack like Mechanical Seeker. Hunter's speed was much faster than Mechanical Seeker's. As soon as the robot dog landed, it immediately dashed towards Windward Formation.
Blood Drain, Undead Bind.
Life Extinguisher was hit by two status curses. Xiao Shiqin had no intention of dodging. Instead, he had Life Extinguisher dodge the control type Binding Spell. In the time it took to take the two curses, Life Extinguisher activated two more skills.
Mechanical Airdrop, Self-propelled Artillery.
Following behind Hunter, attacks were launched from both the sky and the ground. Although Life Extinguisher was hit by a series of debuffs, they weren't enough to kill him. He needed to use strong attacks to break through the opponent's control.
As a cast class, Warlocks had no way of continuing to cast spells under such concentrated attacks. Windward Formation pulled back and retreated.
"Windward Formation retreated! Xiao Shiqin paid the price of taking three debuffs to fight for an opportunity to attack. Wei Chen had no choice but to retreat. Windward Formation began to move. Hm … he only moved here … here … "
In the instant Pan Lin hesitated, the Mechanical Airdrop's surprise attack arrived. The bombs rolled down from the Rising Winter Melon's belly. Boom boom boom boom, the explosions continued. However, they only floated above Windward Formation's head. In the end, the only things that fell were some broken bricks. Windward Formation took a few steps back and found cover above his head. In the end, the airdrop bombs could only land on this extra platform.
"Wei Chen found a very good cover. Windward Formation won't be hit by the Mechanical Airdrop, but there's still the Self-propelled Artillery. Ah … the Self-propelled Artillery won't be able to hit him. Windward Formation also has cover in front of him. The Self-propelled Artillery won't be able to reach him at such a high angle."
The mechanical props summoned by Mechanics weren't ferocious steel beasts. Most of them were small and precise machines. The Rising Winter Melon used for the Mechanical Airdrop was about the size of a watermelon. The Self-propelled Artillery was even smaller. It could fit in a washbasin.
Due to its size, these guys' attacks weren't as invincible. Otherwise, if the Mechanical Airdrop really was like a bomber, wouldn't the entire map be blown up in the blink of an eye?
As a result, Wei Chen found two cover points, which easily blocked these two attacks. Standing behind the chest-high wall, Windward Formation didn't delay his casting. After retreating to this position, he continued to attack Life Extinguisher. As for the Hunter that had rushed out first, Windward Formation had long since locked him in a Hexagram Prison. That silly dog was fearless. He stubbornly charged out of the Hexagram Prison, challenging the skill's priority. In the end, he was judged to be a pile of scrap metal.
Xiao Shiqin's attack, which had taken three buffs, was blocked just like that. What contributed the most wasn't anything else, but a platform and a half-high wall.
"Wei Chen used the terrain very well to block Xiao Shiqin's attack. At the beginning of the competition, we said that Team Excellent Era should have more time to study this final map than Happy, so they should have a deeper understanding of it. Xiao Shiqin's performance up until now has confirmed our thoughts. He's so familiar with this map that it's almost as if it's a map he's used to using in his home game. However, it looks like Wei Chen didn't study the details of the two maps that he used to block his attack! "Pan Lin said.
"This … Xiao Shiqin might not have missed it. He probably just didn't think that Wei Chen would be able to react so quickly!" Li Yibo said.
"It looks like Xiao Shiqin underestimated Wei Chen's familiarity with the map. Ignoring everything else, Wei Chen hasn't left this area since the start of the competition. Even if he's not familiar with it, he's familiar with it! Haha … "Pan Lin said this half-jokingly, but Li Yibo was startled when he heard this.
He remembered that at the start of the competition, Wei Chen's Windward Formation hadn't left. Instead, he had just been wandering around the spawn point. Could it be that this guy really was studying the map and was preparing to fight Xiao Shiqin here, so he used the time after the start of the competition to study this random spawn point?
Yes, that had to be it!
Li Yibo was already certain of his guess, because in the current match, Wei Chen had once again used the map to beautifully nullify Xiao Shiqin's attack. Pan Lin was sighing with emotion!
However, he couldn't say this out loud! Because before, he was the one who spoke with assurance, saying that Wei Chen staying at the spawn point was a "reverse psychology on top of reverse psychology". If he said that Wei Chen was actually using that time to study the map, wouldn't that be the same as slapping himself in the face?
