Commentator Happy's match is full of opportunities and challenges! Pan Lin couldn't help but sigh. Happy never seemed to be lacking in topics, but he was always full of traps.
Of course, it couldn't be said that Happy was Happy this time. Mi Xiuyuan was a member of Thunder, but Thunder's opponent was Happy. Pan Lin's first target was Happy out of habit. Fortunately, this sort of guess was just a sort of expectation. It wasn't like the tactical commentary that was set in stone, so it wasn't too embarrassing if the commentary didn't happen. However, Pan Lin's heart was already traumatized.
The broadcast still gave Mi Xiuyuan plenty of screen time.
Losing in an individual round within a minute was a very embarrassing thing for a pro player. However, Mi Xiuyuan looked very calm on camera. After returning to Team Thunder's player area, he even received a standing ovation from Thunder's teammates. Dai Yanqi was just a third-year player who had just finished her rookie season. However, she acted like a big sister and fiercely rubbed Mi Xiuyuan's head.
"It looks like … Thunder gave up on the match against Ye Xiu and sent a rookie up to gain some experience." Guest Li Yibo carefully observed for a long time before finally speaking.
"Uh, I wonder what kind of growth a loss in less than a minute will bring to a player." Pan Lin's words were slightly sarcastic. He was clearly dissatisfied with Thunder's decision. As for whether he was dissatisfied with this arrangement or because he hadn't revealed his secret weapon, that was unknown.
The match continued. After Ye Xiu, it was Su Mucheng. Thunder sent up Fang Xuecai, another Assassin. In the end, Fang Xuecai lost to Su Mucheng, and Happy scored another point.
The score was 2 to 0. The crowd was excited. Shouts like 10 to 0 echoed in the stadium again.
In the end, Thunder's third opponent was Xiao Shiqin, while Happy's opponent was Mo Fan.
Xiao Shiqin was known as a Master Tactician, but he wasn't weak in one-on-one battles either. In Thunderclap's lineup, he was often the main force. But in this round, he had appeared in the individual competition. What kind of arrangement did Thunderclap have?
"Xiao Shiqin against Xiao Shiqin … the two of them did face each other in the Challenger League last season. It was in the group stage under the new format, and Xiao Shiqin's performance in the group stage was outstanding. He managed to take on three opponents at once. Let's see what will happen when the two of them meet again today," Pan Lin, the commentator, tried to set the atmosphere of the match.
In the end, the duel did not have the twisted atmosphere that he had instigated. Xiao Shiqin defeated Mo Fan in a straightforward manner.
Pan Lin and Li Yibo didn't know how to comment. This scene was too mild. What should be done, what should be done. It was as if that was the case.
However, the emotions of the loser would not be as calm as the scene.
Mo Fan, who walked down the stage, was not as expressionless as he usually was. His gaze was fixed on Xiao Shiqin, and his face revealed an expression of deep thought.
After losing to the same person twice, Mo Fan was also actively searching for the source of the problem. Even if there was a difference in strength, the competition wasn't just about calculating strength. The method of using strength was what determined victory and defeat.
Seeing Mo Fan's attentive appearance, Ye Xiu didn't say anything else. When one reached a certain level, they would need to comprehend more on their own. After all, the one who truly understood themselves was still themselves. Bystanders would usually only be able to play an indirect role in dispelling the clouds and mist.
How could one defeat Xiao Shiqin?
If Ye Xiu could make someone achieve this with just a few words of guidance, then the skill of a pro player would be too worthless.
The individual competition ended. Happy was in the lead 2: 1. It was already impossible for them to win 10-0. The crowd immediately showed signs of depression. Happy's fans' appetites had been spoiled by Happy's consecutive magnificent performances. Anything less than a 10: 0 would cause them to feel dissatisfied. Happy, who wasn't from a powerhouse, had the expectations that only powerhouse fans had.
Then came the group arena. Pan Lin and Li Yibo both believed that Happy had a certain advantage. After all, Thunder's players weren't very famous or strong. Happy at least had Fang Rui holding down the fort. There was also Tang Rou, whose image had been destroyed, but who still had explosive power on the stage.
"If nothing unexpected happens, Happy should have a higher chance." Li Yibo was already very careful with his words. He didn't even dare to use words like victory. He only dared to say "higher chance." Higher chance didn't mean that he would win. Li Yibo was very cunning.
In the end, Happy won the group arena just like that, to no one's surprise.
When Pan Lin announced this result that was as expected, he realized that he was actually a little dispirited.
What was going on? Commentating Happy's matches and not getting slapped in the face was not something he was used to? Was he masochistic? Taking advantage of the long break before the team competition, Pan Lin reflected deeply on himself.
On the side of the stage, the players of the two teams were both making plans for the upcoming team competition.
"Something's not right," Fang Rui said.
"Say it," Ye Xiu said.
"I can't say it. It's a kind of intuition," Fang Rui said.
"I also feel that something's not right. It's too calm," Wei Chen said.
"It won't be the team competition," Ye Xiu said.
"You mean that they're holding back?" Wei Chen said.
"It's not to the extent that they're holding back, but in the individual competitions, they really aren't that strong. But to lose points so calmly shows that they're extremely confident in the team competition, "Ye Xiu said.
"Confident in themselves? Could this really be the secret behind why they're so strong in the team competition? "Fang Rui had clearly seen the interview with Xiao Shiqin about why Thunder was so outstanding this season.
"If they're not confident, there will be many choices they don't dare to make in their strategies. The more confident they are, the more choices they have to make, and the more changes there are, "Ye Xiu said.
"You sound like you're talking about Xiao Shiqin? He's always been pretty confident, hasn't he? "Fang Rui said.
"Now his confidence isn't just for himself," Ye Xiu said.
Fang Rui understood a bit, and so did the others. Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look at Thunder, but Thunder's players were also looking at them. The two sides made eye contact, and Xiao Shiqin waved at them in a friendly manner.
"This match is really lacking in the smell of gunpowder …" This scene was also captured by the live camera. However, the broadcast was broadcasting an advertisement at this time, so this was just a private comment from Pan Lin after seeing the image. If it was a live broadcast, it wouldn't be good to say this. It would be better to say that the two teams were truly harmonious and friendly.
"This match isn't going to be easy. Everyone, focus. We'll slow down a bit in the beginning," Ye Xiu said.
Of course, he would study every opponent they were going to face. He would study the opponent's playstyle and the team's tactical style. However, Team Thunder was an extremely dazzling team this season. They were truly difficult to deal with.
They weren't like Samsara. Samsara's strength in the team competition was inseparable from the strength of their players and characters. One Leaf Of Autumn's Battle God aura was being washed away by Samsara bit by bit. In Samsara, One Leaf Of Autumn was no longer the one and only "one". Here, they had another "one", Cloud Piercer.
Sun Xiang and Samsara didn't have any incompatibility issues that many people had been worried about. As a result, with Samsara's strong record, his and Zhou Zekai's powerful duo was given the title of "Team No. 1" by the reporters this season. Two No. 1s referred to the two strongest players, two characters with "one" in their names.
With such a powerful player and such a valiant duo, Samsara had an undefeated record in the team competition. But what about Thunder? Their players weren't at the top of the individual competition, but in the team competition, they were able to maintain a record of 14 wins. Why? Tactics!
Thunder had always been a team that relied on tactics to gain a foothold, but they had never relied on tactics to gain such a valiant position. Currently, the public opinion in the circle was that if Thunder could maintain such a valiant performance this season, then perhaps the title of the Four Great Tacticians of the Alliance should be changed. Xiao Shiqin should be removed from the list and become an existence on a higher level than the others.
After all, Ye Xiu, Yu Wenzhou, and Zhang Xinjie, whether it was in the past or in the present, the chips in their hands were much stronger than Xiao Shiqin's. Their teams were like Samsara's, all of them had extremely strong individual players.
It was like a chef cooking.
Ye Xiu, Yu Wenzhou, and Zhang Xinjie had good ingredients and cooked one good dish after another. Their skill level was very high.
But Xiao Shiqin, he had inferior ingredients to the three of them, but he made dishes that were just as good, or even better. With such a comparison, it was clear who was better.
When this was said, there were many responses, but very quickly, someone pointed out: in the Challenger League last season, Ye Xiu had used super crappy ingredients to defeat Xiao Shiqin, who had beautiful Excellent Era ingredients. How should I put this?
Thus, another side used the direct confrontation between Xiao Shiqin, Yu Wenzhou, and Zhang Xinjie this season. In the team competition, Xiao Shiqin's Thunder had won. This was also a very solid example.
Thus, the only suspense left was Ye Xiu.
This time, Ye Xiu's ingredients were much better than they had been in the Challenger League. Rookies had grown, players like Su Mucheng and Fang Rui had joined, and characters like these two All Stars had joined. The other characters had also improved greatly.
On the other hand, Thunder's roster was much dimmer compared to Su Mucheng and Fang Rui. In terms of characters, they were still the same as their team, which wasn't very rich, had been building up their characters step by step.
Ye Xiu's ingredients had improved greatly, while Xiao Shiqin's ingredients had regressed quite a bit compared to the Excellent Era. What would happen when the two faced off again?
As the match approached, the commentator had already found the highlight of this round's team competition, which was the tactical conversation between the two Master Tacticians.
Whoever won would probably be the existence above the four master tacticians.
Pan Lin didn't say this directly, but many people thought of it. Everyone's eyes were already glued to the screen. The match began.
