Xiao Shiqin had been nervous about the current situation because he had seen Ye Xiu prepare to block him. When he suddenly saw Sun Xiang's shout in the chat, his heart beat even faster.
Clerics run fast? What did that mean? Happy's Little Cold Hands, how fast could he run?
Happy's character had a lot of Orange equipment, so his stats were clear to see. There was no reason for One Leaf Of Autumn and Combat Form to be surprised by Little Cold Hands' speed.
Unless … he was wearing a different set of equipment right now!
Little Cold Hands had two sets of equipment?
Xiao Shiqin's guess wasn't wrong. At this moment, the television broadcast and the live technical statistics all showed Little Cold Hands' equipment panel. Sure enough, he was wearing a full set of equipment that increased movement speed. It completely ignored any stats a Cleric should have and focused solely on movement speed.
Wearing an extra set of equipment would undoubtedly increase the load. But the problem was that Clerics were a cloth armor class. Cloth armor was the lightest of all equipment, so wearing an extra set would have the least impact. But with such a reckless increase in movement speed, the speed that Little Cold Hands displayed in the end was enough to shock even a God-level character like One Autumn Leaf.
When had such a deformed Cleric ever appeared in the pro scene?
This kind of Cleric had lost almost all of his original value. The only thing he could do was run. But now, this was the ability Team Excellent Era didn't want him to have.
Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei had already estimated how Little Cold Hands' movement speed compared to One Leaf Of Autumn's and Combat Form's: they were on par.
In this situation, there were only two ways to catch up. One was to have a skill that could slow down the opponent or increase one's own movement speed. Battle Mages also had this skill. Among Magic Chasers, Ice Chasers could slow the target, while Neutral Chasers could increase one's movement speed. But the problem was that Chasers couldn't be obtained just because you wanted to. They needed to attack the target to trigger them. The two characters couldn't even catch up to the target, so how could they have Chasers?
Next, it would depend on the rhythm of both parties. Sprinting was the fastest way to move. Sprinting consumed stamina, and stamina could be automatically recovered under certain circumstances. This rhythm would affect the final result of a character's movement. There was no need to talk about Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei. The two of them had a very solid foundation. What about their opponents? After chasing for a few steps, Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei fell into despair. As soon as an expert made a move, one would know whether or not he was an expert. Little Icy Cold Hands' various movements allowed the two of them to immediately deduce that this person had put in a lot of effort in this aspect. Relying on mechanics to forcefully chase after him wasn't a simple matter.
The two of them quickly informed Xiao Shiqin of their helplessness in killing the Priest. Xiao Shiqin's heart almost sank to the bottom at this moment.
Thinking about the Cleric made him realize a problem: In this match, did Team Happy's healer play the role that a healer should?
None! None at all.
He had been the first to fight, and had only provided a few insignificant heals during the battle. Happy hadn't needed any heals to support the situation at that time. Little Icy Cold Hands' Holy Commandment Aura had increased his damage output more than his heals. Afterwards, he had quietly left the stage, allowing Baozi to invade and strengthen Team Happy's damage output.
He was a character with no presence at all.
However, this was a character that absolutely couldn't be ignored. Because he was a healer, a healer who could determine the outcome of the team competition. Especially after Team Excellent Era's healer had been killed. Even if Little Icy Cold Hands hadn't arrived yet, he had already become an existence that made everyone in Excellent Era feel like they were sitting on pins and needles.
Xiao Shiqin naturally had his own tactics to deal with healers. In particular, Happy's healer Little Icy Cold Hands was a huge hole in Happy's team. As a character that couldn't not appear in the team competition, his skill level wasn't good enough.
In this regard, Xiao Shiqin also had some tactical ideas. However, he didn't have the chance to put them into action. Happy didn't let the healer do much and had him quietly leave the stage. Then, he became the deciding player of the match. Even if he knew that this person's skill level wasn't good enough, Xiao Shiqin still had to place a lot of importance on him.
Even after realizing that they should have killed Lord Grim, Xiao Shiqin still felt that killing Little Icy Cold Hands had the same level of tactical value. So when facing the dirty playstyle of Ye Xiu, Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei had been instructed to decisively switch targets and kill Little Icy Cold Hands.
In the end, what they saw was a Cleric who only knew how to run...
"Come back..." Xiao Shiqin said helplessly in the chat. Happy dared to make such an arrangement. He believed that this player would have done the corresponding strengthening exercises in this area. Even Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei wouldn't be able to finish him off in a short amount of time. If this continued for a long time, the other three would undoubtedly come to his rescue after finishing off Life Extinguisher.
It was another round of containment.
Little Icy Cold Hands had never taken on the role of a healer before, but just by relying on his identity as a healer, he was able to complete an important containment.
At this moment, Xiao Shiqin inexplicably thought of a famous saying in Glory: the skills that haven't been used yet are the scariest skills.
Yes, this was the truth. Ye Xiu had used this as a tactic to make Little Icy Cold Hands come true.
Xiao Shiqin deeply felt that Happy's tactic for this match was a meticulous net. Every character, every link, every detail, all intertwined to form a mistake. Even if you found a way to cut off one of the points, another point would immediately connect, interlocking and unending. I can't cut it short, I can't sort it out...
I … it looks like I can only stop here...
Xiao Shiqin, in a 1v3, was barely holding on. He seemed to want to hold on until Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei's characters arrived. Unfortunately, Ye Xiu, who had made such a tactical arrangement, understood the importance of fighting for time better than him. Aside from Lord Grim's low health, the other two were completely focused on killing.
Kill Lord Grim without regard for anything else?
A few minutes ago, Xiao Shiqin had just given this order. But in the blink of an eye, Happy had killed his Life Extinguisher without regard for anything else.
"It's up to you guys."
These were the last words Xiao Shiqin left for his teammates in this match. And then, Life Extinguisher fell.
Xiao Shiqin was undoubtedly an important figure in this Excellent Era. He was also the one who left behind the most things in this match. But this match wasn't a happy memory for him. In a battle of tactics, he had completely lost to Ye Xiu. And after he fell, what he left for his teammates was an incomparably terrible mess.
2v4, the opponents had a healer...
And in such a terrible mess, he actually said "it's up to you guys"? These kinds of words should only be said when leaving a chance for his teammates to win, right? And now, in this Excellent Era, was there such a thing?
Some of the Excellent Era fans were already dissatisfied. For the first time, the boos were directed at their own team and their own players. They were dissatisfied, but at the same time, they were afraid. Was Excellent Era really going to lose?
One Autumn Leaf and Combat Form arrived. They saw Life Extinguisher take the final hit and fall. They saw Xiao Shiqin's final words for them, as well as the situation he left them.
2v4 with a healer?
In such a situation, some teams might have already typed GG. Would Excellent Era?
"Of course not." In the audience, Micrograss's trio was faced with such a situation. Xu Bin made a solemn vow because Liu Xiaobie had just been wondering if Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei could have typed GG.
"The situation Xiao Shiqin left for them is actually still a chance to win," Xu Bin said.
"Oh?"
"Don't you think that in order to kill Life Extinguisher, Happy's Baozi and One Inch Ash's losses were quite large?" Xu Bin said.
"You're saying …" Liu Xiaobie had already realized something.
"If Xiao Shiqin insists on holding on, I think he can still hold on until One Leaf Of Autumn and Combat Form get back," Xu Bin said.
"You're saying that when Happy was killing him, he was also killing Happy's character. This sped up Life Extinguisher's death, but also took away more damage, "Liu Xiaobie said.
"That's right. That's why he left those words. It's because he's already done his best to set up a situation for Sun Xiang and Qiu Fei," Xu Bin said.
"This situation is even better than letting Life Extinguisher live?" Liu Xiaobie said.
"At least that's what he thinks," Xu Bin said.
"He probably … felt that he couldn't beat Senior Ye Xiu in terms of tactics, so he left a situation where strength would determine victory?" Gao Yingjie suddenly interjected.
"Determine victory through strength?" Liu Xiaobie repeated to himself. The situation was 2v4. Happy had a healer. With such an absolute advantage, there really wasn't much need to pay attention to tactics, right?
"I didn't think that in this situation, Xiao Shiqin would finally use the tactic he's best at," Xu Bin said.
"Xiao Shiqin … the tactic he's best at?" Liu Xiaobie was at a loss. He was an expert at mechanics, so he didn't pay much attention to tactics.
"Underestimating the enemy," Xu Bin said.
"Underestimating the enemy?"
"Yes, making the enemy underestimate the enemy," Xu Bin said.
Liu Xiaobie suddenly realized. Xiao Shiqin's original Team Thunder was weak, so deliberately making the enemy underestimate them gave them a lot of opportunities to win. But now that they were in the Excellent Era and in the Challenger League, he couldn't use this tactic at all. Just the name Excellent Era was enough to make many teams kneel.
And now, Xiao Shiqin used his own Life Extinguisher's death to send Excellent Era into an absolute disadvantage. 2v4, with the enemy having a healer. In this situation, even a pro player like Liu Xiaobie felt like he could just type GG. One could only imagine how high Happy's chances of winning were.
With an absolute chance of winning, he had the right to underestimate the enemy. Naturally, there was also the possibility of underestimating the enemy.
In the final moment, Xiao Shiqin finally used the tactic he was best at to set up a situation for his teammates.
It's up to you guys!
These words weren't said casually.
