"It's actually the Screen Strategy …" Li Yibo sighed after seeing Happy's strategy. He didn't know what to say. He had a strange feeling in his heart. Looking at the performances of the two teams today, Happy seemed more like Excellent Era. Excellent Era … he didn't know what it was like.
Yes, Team Excellent Era was no longer the Excellent Era of the past. In this team, apart from the ace character One Leaf Of Autumn and the main healer Woven Shadow, the other three characters had changed.
Originally, many people thought of Excellent Era as a team with three All-Stars, but looking at the team structure of Excellent Era, Su Mucheng's Launcher had clearly lost her position.
Was this just a tactical choice? It didn't seem like it.
The Shadow Strategy was a very good supplement for Sun Xiang, but in the Screen Strategy that Excellent Era used in the past, the Launcher's ability to provide support was also very strong. And this was also Su Mucheng's greatest characteristic.
Would an ace player not know how to provide support? Pro players weren't that weak. In the end, it still depended on whether the team would still use this strategy or not, whether they still needed her support.
And from the second half of last season, it could be seen that Su Mucheng and Dancing Rain's positions in the team had changed. She, Sun Xiang, and One Leaf Of Autumn no longer had the same synergy as Best Partners. She had become a lone attacker. And this season, because there was no Pro League to play in, the little content in the Challenger League wasn't enough for people to see the new Excellent Era. It wasn't until this match that everyone could see that the Shadow Strategy had become the new main strategy of Excellent Era. They wanted to maximize the power of their aces.
In addition, with the addition of Xiao Shiqin's Mechanic and Shen Jian's Striker, the current Excellent Era no longer had any trace of the Team Excellent Era of the past.
On the contrary, Happy's character classes were completely different from the Excellent Era of the past, but this strategy made those familiar with Excellent Era feel very familiar with it.
Li Yibo was speechless. Excellent Era's fans were also at a loss.
A team changing their style wasn't enough to scare away the fans, but when they found that their opponent was very similar to the original team they were familiar with, the fans couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
And now, the two sides were locked in a death match. Seeing the strategy they were familiar with suppress the team they supported, Excellent Era's fans felt very conflicted.
They watched as their Team Excellent Era was completely split up, while Happy clearly displayed the combination of their different strategies.
"The Screen Strategy … and Ye Xiu taking on Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei by himself. This is the trump card strategy that only powerhouses use …" Pan Lin was listing out the strategies Happy had displayed.
"You're still missing one thing: Tang Rou's close combat with Xiao Shiqin," Li Yibo said.
"Ah … this is …" Pan Lin was stunned. "BOX-1?"
"That's right, it's BOX-1," Li Yibo confirmed firmly.
The so-called "BOX-1" referred to sending a player to harass a key player in the opponent's formation. The player sent out would rarely take on the responsibility of coordinating with the team. He only had one mission, and that was to separate the target player from the opponent's formation. As long as this was achieved, the execution of the "BOX-1" was very successful. As for whether or not it could kill the opponent, it wasn't very important. Because the target of the "BOX-1" was usually an important player in the opponent's formation, once they were separated from the formation, it would be very destructive to the opponent's formation. This was the main purpose of the "BOX-1".
Using the "BOX-1" on a Master Tactician like Xiao Shiqin was undoubtedly very difficult. Fortunately, Happy's current intention wasn't to use this opportunity to eliminate Xiao Shiqin. He just wanted to buy some time. For example, Ye Xiu was fighting against two players by himself. In reality, he was being forced back by Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei. However, time was still time. Both sides were fighting for time. This put Zhang Jiaxing, who was eagerly waiting for reinforcements, in a difficult position. If this continued, he would definitely die!
Xiao Shiqin was anxious, but he couldn't find a way to break through the current situation. His last ray of hope had shifted to Team Excellent Era's sixth player, Wang Ze.
The sixth player would automatically be replaced if he died, and he could choose which support zone he would enter from. Happy was able to use Baozi's invasion to exchange for Little Cold Hands' DPS buff because this zone was very close to the support zone. Wang Ze's Sharpshooter should be arriving soon, right?
Gunshot!
As expected by Xiao Shiqin, Wang Ze's Sharpshooter arrived in time. He appeared in the same position as Wu Chen's Dawn Rifle, so his first attack was aimed at Dawn Rifle. This undoubtedly interfered with Happy's Screen strategy. Wang Ze's class was coincidentally a Sharpshooter. His attack range was slightly lower than a Launcher's, but it wasn't as difficult as a melee class. Amidst the rapid gunshots, Dawn Rifle's rhythm was indeed a little chaotic. His skill level was limited, so it was very difficult for him to set up a Screen to coordinate with such concentrated firepower.
"Save the Cleric!" Xiao Shiqin anxiously ordered.
Even if the Screen strategy was disrupted, it wouldn't be easy for Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei to break through Ye Xiu, or for him to shake off Tang Rou. They had been locked in a stalemate for so long that Zhang Jiaxing's Woven Shadow's healing skills were all on cooldown. Other than trying his best to dodge the attacks, he didn't have any other way to save himself. He could only hope for reinforcements. As for Excellent Era, as long as one side could break through, the situation could be salvaged. Right now, the new sixth player, Wang Ze, undoubtedly had the best chance.
Before the sixth player entered the arena, he couldn't watch the match from an omniscient view, so he was actually the one who was the most clueless about the situation. He could only read the messages in the chat to determine the current situation. The players on the field didn't have much time to explain the situation to the sixth player who would appear at any time. Usually, the first instruction given to the sixth player was to tell him which substitution zone to enter the match at the time of the death of a player.
When Wang Ze entered the match and rushed over from the support zone, the first character he saw was Happy's Dawn Rifle. Naturally, he went with the flow and entered the battle while reading the situation.
If he didn't see it, he wouldn't have known, but when he saw it, he was shocked. His own team was actually being rushed around by the opponent. The Cleric, Woven Shadow, was being beaten up by the opponent without any protection. He was in imminent danger.
Wang Ze was wondering if he should rush to save Woven Shadow, but Xiao Shiqin just happened to give him the order. Naturally, he abandoned Dawn Rifle without hesitation and rushed over to attack.
But this time, it was Wu Chen who didn't want to. Dawn Rifle began to fiercely attack Wang Ze's Sharpshooter, even sticking close to him to block him.
Launchers didn't have as many physical skills as Sharpshooters, so sticking close to a Sharpshooter was clearly giving him an advantage. But was this the time to take advantage of him? Of course not. Wang Ze impatiently tried to shake off Dawn Rifle, but Wu Chen didn't care. He was risking his life to hold him back.
Yes, he was just a very mediocre pro player. You could even say that he was a relatively poor pro player. After his team disbanded, he had already lost his rice bowl. He wasn't young and his skill level wasn't high either. How could a real pro team accept him? The only ones that would accept him were probably grassroots teams that couldn't attract any pro players!
But in the end, he really did come to a grassroots team.
Happy. This was the team that had eliminated them in the Challenger League, the main culprit behind their team's disbandment, the team that he should have hated so much, just had to summon him.
Wu Chen accepted. He really couldn't leave Glory so early. It was just that after Happy, his main responsibility was no longer to help the players on stage, which made him feel a bit regretful. Even though his skill level wasn't high, a pro player's anticipation for a match wasn't measured by skill level.
Fortunately, Happy had signed him up for the Challenger League, which made him look forward to this opportunity. He hoped to appear in more matches, but he hadn't thought that Happy would leave the biggest stage of the Challenger League to him. When Ye Xiu told him that he would be needed in the finals of the Challenger League, he almost didn't dare to believe his ears. After confirming that this was true, he couldn't help but have doubts. Because even though Happy was a grassroots team, Wu Chen knew that his skill level wasn't outstanding in this grassroots team. The God Ye Qiu wasn't worthy of being compared to him. Even those rookies had potential that the team could rely on.
Why me?
Wu Chen had his doubts, but Ye Xiu calmly told him: because you're a Launcher.
So it was because of his class.
This kind of reason might make a lot of people disappointed. Everyone hoped that others would see their own talent. But Wu Chen didn't. Talent? He had been in the Glory scene for so many years. He knew how much talent he had. Just based on his talent, there was no reason for him to appear on stage in such an important event.
It was because of his class. This reason wasn't very good, but it was enough. Wu Chen was thankful that the class he had always loved had brought him such luck. Wu Chen knew that this match might be the last official match of his professional career. And this stage was already the biggest one he could fight for.
The finals of the Challenger League, against Excellent Era!
Wu Chen had been excited, and nervous. For this match, he had put in all his effort to train, to meet the team's needs. Ye Xiu had clearly told him what the team needed him to do, and he had always trained according to this requirement. Finally, the match had arrived.
His performance … should be pretty good, right?
Up until now, Wu Chen had played cautiously, and he was quite satisfied with his performance. Now, as long as he killed Excellent Era's Cleric, the scales of victory would completely tilt. And at this crucial moment, Excellent Era's sixth player arrived. They were going to break through his area and rescue their Cleric.
No! This couldn't be allowed!
Wu Chen, who had been extremely careful the entire match, seemed to have lost his mind at this moment. He used a playstyle that shouldn't have appeared on a Launcher and stuck to the Sharpshooter like a piece of sticky candy. His mind couldn't think of anything else. He only knew one thing. If he stopped this person, they would have a chance of winning this match.
"Wu Chen … this … this …" Wu Chen, Li Yibo should have been able to see through him in an instant, but his current performance left him speechless. His current performance wasn't up to par. It was so ugly, so lacking in skill.
"Is this … a BOX-2?" Pan Lin suddenly interjected.
“BOX-2?” Li Yibo stared blankly. Okay … from a certain perspective, this could be considered a BOX-2. But Wu Chen's playstyle was really stupid. Wang Ze's Sharpshooter was really tied down by him.
"It's hopeless." Li Yibo sighed and shook his head. Team Excellent Era's Zhang Jiaxing's Cleric, Woven Shadow, had been eliminated.
