"Both sides haven't made any moves yet!" Pan Lin shouted. Originally, this kind of scene was quite boring, but Pan Lin's tone was especially excited, all because he was looking forward to Level 80 equipment.
Meanwhile, Li Yibo found Lord Grim's information and compared the changes in his stats. The four-dimensional stats were clearly displayed, and Li Yibo hoped to quickly find some useful information from this comparison.
"Lord Grim is moving deeper. Will there be a better angle of attack there? However, this should be within Song Xiao's field of vision, so there doesn't seem to be any angle for a sneak attack. Will he move deeper? "Pan Lin explained without stopping. This kind of process, unless it was a decisive moment, usually wouldn't pay much attention to it. However, at this moment, Pan Lin couldn't wait to analyze every movement of Lord Grim's finger in detail.
"As expected! Lord Grim is moving deeper. He's going to make a big move! "
"Ah, Song Xiao is also moving!"
"Receding Tides is moving forward. Song Xiao is indeed the famous Mr. Key. His mental fortitude is quite stable! This kind of forward movement is quite bold. However, now that Lord Grim has moved away, there won't be any danger in his cut. He can actually see through Lord Grim's intentions. "
"Huh …" Pan Lin mumbled in confusion. He was momentarily at a loss for words. He had been too confident in explaining Ye Xiu's intentions. Now, Ye Xiu actually didn't follow his analysis and instead cut in the opposite direction of Pan Lin's analysis. This left him at a loss for words.
However, once Song Xiao's Receding Tides cut in, Lord Grim had already disappeared without a trace.
"Is he that accurate?" Pan Lin was still in shock. Although it wasn't a very exciting process, this degree of insight was still quite frightening.
However, at this moment, the caster cut to a slow-motion replay.
"Oh …" Pan Lin suddenly understood. It turned out that it wasn't a calculation. When Lord Grim walked past the previous position, he had an angle where he could see Receding Tides' movements.
"As expected of Ye Xiu!" Li Yibo had temporarily returned to the match. "He's used the map very well. This is something that many young players don't have. They aren't careful enough with the details of the map. You have to know that this is a huge advantage in the main station. "
"Happy and Qiao Yifan seem to be doing well in this area!" Pan Lin mentioned a name.
"I have a good senior by my side!" Li Yibo sighed.
Pan Lin subconsciously wanted to say that Happy wasn't doing so well. For example, Tang Rou and Baozi didn't use the map well enough. However, if he said that, it would seem like he was trying to tear down Li Yibo, so he held back.
Song Xiao, who hadn't seen Lord Grim, didn't have Receding Tides chase down that path. Instead, he took a detour.
"Song Xiao has a lot of experience." Li Yibo said, "Although he didn't see him, from this distance, he could roughly determine Lord Grim's possible direction. If he didn't go that way, Lord Grim wouldn't have disappeared from the map so quickly. "
"Oh, now the two sides …" A bird's eye view of the terrain appeared in the bottom right corner of the screen. The two small dots moved on the map. The main screen kept switching between the two people's perspectives to create the tension of an unexpected encounter.
Close, close …
The two sides constantly approached each other on the map. At the next intersection, it seemed like they would face each other directly. Everyone was sweating. Suddenly, Lord Grim jumped up.
The ninja blade from the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella stabbed into the wall. Normally, it would have been impossible to jump over an obstacle, but Ye Xiu used the ninja blade's special climbing direction and instantly flipped over it silently.
Foul!!!
This was Pan Lin's shout in his heart. Even after an entire regular season, the unexpected nature of an unspecialized still made people feel like it was a foul. In the end, everyone's thinking couldn't be like Ye Xiu's. They needed to spend a certain amount of time thinking about what an unspecialized could do in order to completely understand it. As a result, when watching Ye Xiu's Lord Grim match, the "why didn't I think of that" experience was the highlight of the show.
The broadcast director was also flustered at this moment. For a moment, he didn't know which perspective they should use to show the suddenness of this moment. Should they use Ye Xiu's eagle-like perspective to show the sharpness? Or should they use Song Xiao's ignorant perspective to show the helplessness?
There was no time to think carefully. The broadcast director subconsciously switched the scene.
Song Xiao's perspective.
Receding Tides was moving.
Then, he saw a grenade fall from the top to the bottom, right in front of him.
Too good!
The broadcast director shouted in his heart. In the end, Song Xiao's perspective was like a close-up of the grenade. From top to bottom, it followed Receding Tides' steps. It was silent all around. The grenade was still falling, but it seemed to be a static phenomenon.
If only they could slow it down … The broadcast director was still intoxicated.
Boom!
The grenade had already exploded. Lord Grim's attack fell from the sky.
Roll, roll, roll.
Song Xiao's Receding Tides rolled back three times in a row. With a wave of his hand, Qi Bullet!
Such a sudden attack shocked even the spectators. Song Xiao, who was directly facing it, didn't panic. He made the most appropriate and most stable response.
Receding Tides rolled backwards three times, increasing the distance between him and Lord Grim as much as possible. In the instant that there was an opening, he fired a Qi Bullet.
"Beautiful!" Commentator Pan Lin shouted.
Ye Xiu's sneak attack was beautiful. Song Xiao's response was also beautiful. As expected of the playoffs, as expected of the highest level of competition. With just this exchange, Pan Lin felt that it was worth the ticket price. He only regretted that he didn't have time to praise such a wonderful moment because the battle was still ongoing.
The Qi Bullet flew out.
However, Lord Grim didn't dodge. He took the hit and continued to attack.
"Even in the group arena, sometimes you need to show a strong performance!" Li Yibo immediately praised.
Because of his strong performance, Ye Xiu was able to maintain his offense. However, because Song Xiao was able to respond calmly, this sneak attack didn't deal too much damage to him. The battle immediately turned into a direct confrontation.
"Sneak attacks aren't a good choice for a player with a big heart like Song Xiao," Pan Lin felt.
"But at least Ye Xiu got the upper hand," Li Yibo said.
No one had any objections to this. In a direct confrontation, Lord Grim's offense accounted for 70% of the damage.
"But you can't say that Song Xiao has fallen into a disadvantage," Pan Lin said.
Song Xiao was 70% defense and 30% offense. He was a bit passive, but his rhythm wasn't messed up.
"A very stable defensive counterattack. Blue Rain's style," Li Yibo said.
Healers could reflect a team's style to a certain extent. Of the eight teams in the playoffs, Samsara, Tyranny, Happy, Thunder, and Hundred Blossoms all had Clerics as their healers. This was a reflection of their offensive nature. As for the other three teams, Micrograss had a dual healer, which could be considered an anomaly. Blue Rain and 301 Degrees both had Paladins as their healers. And these two teams were indeed more defensive.
Especially Blue Rain.
Team Blue Rain was a very standard defensive counterattack team.
In a stable defense, they would look for openings and wait for an opportunity to strike.
This was their team's style, and in the end, it became the style of many of the players on the team. If you wanted to gain a foothold in Blue Rain, it was very difficult without a beautiful defensive play.
It was normal for a defensive type to be suppressed on the field, because that was the space they gave to the opponent. So when they saw that Song Xiao's offense was slightly weaker, Pan Lin and Li Yibo didn't think that this was a sign that he was at a disadvantage. This was just a player's style.
So they were looking forward to it.
Defensive counterattack. The climax was all about counterattacking. Opportunities were fleeting. Once you seized them, you couldn't let them go. This moment required extremely explosive power and efficiency. Defensive counterattack. The defense had to be steady and slow. The counterattack had to be fierce, ruthless, and fast.
Everyone stared intently at the match. Happy's supporters, who heard the commentary, suddenly felt their hearts rise to their throats.
Song Xiao didn't have much of a presence in the regular season, and his stats weren't that great either. But everyone knew how strong he was in the playoffs. He wasn't an easy opponent. Everyone knew this. So even though Ye Xiu had taken the title of King of 1v1 in the regular season, everyone was still worried for him.
Straight Punch, Knockback, Grenade, Shining Cut, Double Stab, Ghost Slash, Floating Bullet …
Skill after skill was used by Lord Grim's ever-changing Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. The rhythm was so fast that sometimes no one could even see what the umbrella had changed into. A skill had already been used, and then the umbrella had already changed into another form.
There was no pause.
The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella almost never stayed in one form for more than two seconds.
Boom!
A Falling Flower Palm suddenly pressed down on Receding Tides' chest, sending him flying.
"Ah!" Pan Lin cried out in surprise. The balance that had been there all along was smashed apart by this palm.
"Ye Xiu broke through Song Xiao's defense!" Li Yibo shouted.
The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella continued to change, but this time, Receding Tides greeted many more people.
"In the end, Song Xiao wasn't able to defend. Let's see how he can turn the situation around," Pan Lin said.
At this time, they still had a lot of confidence in Song Xiao, because no matter what, this player wouldn't panic. He had all the mental fortitude that a reversal player should have.
So they were waiting.
Before, it was a defensive counterattack. Now, it was a counterattack.
But Lord Grim's attacks didn't stop.
As a result, Receding Tides also didn't stop taking hits.
The expressions of those who were waiting started to become strange.
"This … is he going to finish him off in one wave?" Pan Lin hesitated. It looked like their expectations for Song Xiao were going to be completely dashed.
"Sneak attack first, attack suppression, break through defense, and finish him off in one wave." Li Yibo used these words to summarize the situation of this match. So far, it had been like this.
The so-called defensive counterattack. They had seen it defending, they had seen it taking hits, but what about the counterattack?
"Can't find a chance to counterattack?" Pan Lin was still thinking about it!
