In the end, he still lost!
When Lin Jingyan came out of the competitor booth, he sighed.
Although it was a bit of a pity, this match didn't make him feel the slightest bit of regret. He could accept this result very calmly. Losing to Fang Rui, he wasn't unconvinced.
After all, he was already past his prime, while Fang Rui was still at his peak.
In terms of saying goodbye to the past, it had been two years, and he still couldn't forget his Demon Subduer. But what about Fang Rui? He had even switched classes. Clearly, Fang Rui was even more resolute than him in this matter.
He was indeed old, while Fang Rui still had a very long future ahead of him!
Looking at Happy's competitor booth on the other side of the stage, Lin Jingyan felt that this was the group arena, and Fang Rui couldn't come out of the competitor booth before the match was over. He really wanted to use this opportunity to give Fang Rui his blessings. He didn't know if the two of them would have another chance to face each other on the stage like this.
After silently looking at the other side for a while, Lin Jingyan walked out of the stage. His blessings could only be kept in his heart.
Good luck! My friend!
This match ended, and the group arena entered the second half. Happy, including Fang Rui, still had three people on the stage. Tyranny only had two players left.
Lin Jingyan walked out of the stage, and Tyranny's fourth player immediately stood up.
Song Qiying, Tyranny's Striker youth. He had joined this season, and had steadily grown as a rookie. It seemed that he would be the future successor of Lone Desert Smoke. And now, in the important stage of the playoffs, Tyranny trusted him enough to send him up. Tyranny wasn't Happy. It wasn't as if they didn't have any other choice apart from rookies, but Song Qiying still appeared in the group arena. He was seen as the fourth player in the group arena. The intention of supporting him was clear.
However, putting him in this position didn't mean that he would truly become the group arena's main defender. The order of the players was, to a certain extent, an indication of the team's attitude towards this group arena.
"Tyranny's fourth pick is Song Qiying! Looks like they didn't intend to end the competition at the fourth position! "After seeing this arrangement, Pan Lin immediately began his analysis. In the group arena of the playoffs, the fourth player was usually a core player. Everyone would usually fight four against five to enter the team competition with an advantage of two points. Their attacks were slightly stronger, and the core player was promoted to the third position. There were also cases where they were divided into three targets.
But Tyranny and Song Qiying were the fourth, so the fifth would most likely be their core commander, captain Han Wenqing. This was the most appropriate arrangement.
Li Yibo was born in Tyranny, and Han Wenqing had been the captain and core of Tyranny for the past ten years. If the captain and core didn't change, it would be difficult to change the temperament of the team. As a result, even though he had been away from the team for a long time, Li Yibo was still very familiar with analyzing Tyranny. But today, Han Wenqing had come up to avoid Ye Xiu, and now, he hadn't even put up the fourth position, but had instead sent the rookie Song Qiying.
The more familiar a team was, the more unfamiliar it would be when this kind of unexpected arrangement occurred. Li Yibo was stunned for a while by Pan Lin's suggestion, before he continued, "It's an away game, so it's more stable!"
A conventional answer. Li Yibo had already lost the confidence to analyze Tyranny as a member of Tyranny's team. Today's Tyranny gave him a very different feeling.
"Okay, let's see Song Qiying's performance! Speaking of which, it's quite a coincidence. Song Qiying's first appearance this season, and his opponent is Happy Fang Rui, "Pan Lin said," But … Fang Rui shouldn't be able to fight for too long, right? "
Fang Rui could be considered a 1v2. Defeating Zhang Jiale's Dazzling Hundred Blossoms, he had used a method that consumed mana. And then, even though he had won against Lin Jingyan, it had been a bloody battle. Hai Wuliang only had fourteen percent of his health left, and eleven percent of his mana left. He was truly an arrow at the end of its flight.
"It'll be very difficult to win, but with Fang Rui's skill, if Song Qiying is too careless, he'll still suffer a lot," Li Yibo said.
"Careless? That's not very likely, right?" Pan Lin laughed.
Li Yibo also laughed.
The current Song Qiying was no longer the same Song Qiying from last time when he had faced Fang Rui for the first time. After an entire season, as one of the most popular contenders for the Best Rookie award, Song Qiying had already received a lot of attention. This young Striker, who looked like he would be the successor of Desert Smoke, had a personality similar to Tyranny's vice-captain, Zhang Xinjie. Serious, careful. Even though he was still a youth, with this kind of personality, how could he possibly be careless?
The match began as the two discussed. Sure enough, Song Qiying's performance was as expected. Just from the way he rushed at the start of the match, everyone could feel his incomparably proper attitude.
Along the way, whether or not he would encounter a battle later, he carefully observed everything. Along the way, his camera constantly turned left and right.
However, the path he chose ultimately led him to the center. The audience had already given up on the hope of seeing a water battle or a forest battle on this map. This was because the manor in the center had indoor space, which also provided cover. Taking a roundabout route to the center had no meaning on this map. As a result, the two teams didn't do such a thing.
In front of and behind the castle, the two teams met for the seventh time across the castle.
Someone like Zhang Xinjie, Song Qiying, and the others, who were strict and proper, probably had already thought of many steps before they went on stage. When he reached the back of the castle, Song Qiying didn't hesitate at all. He didn't go through the back door, nor did he jump onto the roof. Instead, he very skillfully found a window and jumped in.
The two teams had already fought several matches, all in this castle. Tyranny had already seen most of the castle's structure.
After jumping in through the window, his camera immediately turned. Up, left, right, everything that he could see was immediately scanned. Song Qiying quickly understood the situation in front of him.
He didn't see Hai Wuliang. Then, as if he had already thought of this beforehand, River Sunset walked to the right corridor. At the second door in the corridor, he turned. Then, step by step, room by room, it was as if he was following a walkthrough.
Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang had already arrived at the castle. He didn't have much HP or MP left, so how could he possibly meet his opponent in a grand manner? Last round, he had taken a roundabout route through the back door, but in the end, he had switched places with Lin Jingyan. He didn't want to use the same method twice. This time, he had Hai Wuliang climb up from the front of the castle. He didn't go up to the roof, but went straight to the second floor from the balcony.
The second floor's furnishings were much more intact than the first floor's. Only the battle between Ye Xiu and Qin Muyun had occurred here. The other battle between Ye Xiu and Zhang Jiale had only resulted in a small hole in the floor.
At this moment, Fang Rui had Hai Wuliang walk towards the hole. When he reached the hole, he took note of the surroundings. After choosing a position and angle, Hai Wuliang crouched down.
Crouch … …
In Glory's vast maps, passive ambushes had an extremely low hit rate. Usually, it was necessary to confirm the target's path first before it was useful. However, Fang Rui didn't do any scouting. He went straight for the hole and then crouched down … …
The audience began to pay attention to when the system announcement would appear.
Because if someone really just crouched down without a care for hit rate, how long would the match last? As a result, Glory had rules. The referees would determine whether or not following the rules was reasonable based on the situation. If it wasn't, they would interfere.
Of course, determining whether or not to crouch still required some hard and fast rules. You couldn't just immediately decide whether or not to crouch down and hide in a corner and interfere. Crouching was based on the fact that there was no movement within 18 seconds.
Some of the players familiar with Glory's rules had already begun counting the seconds for Fang Rui.
But even if they were familiar with it, the master of playing dirty, Fang Rui, was even more familiar with it. At 17 seconds, Hai Wuliang switched positions.
Glory's referees weren't robots. This sort of cleverness that took advantage of a loophole in the rules was something they could judge based on their own judgment. However, in this match, the referees seemed to recognize Fang Rui's cleverness. They actually didn't interfere after 18 seconds.
Boos rang out in the stadium. The boos came from Tyranny's fans. The hardcore fans were familiar with the rules. They felt that the referees' inaction was biased towards the home team. The boos were directed towards the referees.
The referees didn't move because the boos were quickly drowned out by the applause. It wasn't Tyranny's turn to influence the referees' judgment. This was Happy's home stadium.
"This, Fang Rui just had his character switch positions. He didn't change his goal. This should still count as an unreasonable 18 seconds of crouching, right?" Pan Lin questioned the referees.
"This, the referees will decide based on the situation. First of all, both characters are in the castle, which greatly reduces the map area. This sort of crouching has a higher chance of hitting, and it's less unreasonable. Also, look, Song Qiying's River Sunset is very close to this area right now. It's very likely that he'll enter this area soon. I think the referees have recognized the success rate of this crouching, so they made a reasonable decision and didn't interfere. If Song Qiying chooses to go around this area, I think the referees will interfere. "Li Yibo understood the referees' thoughts quite well.
"So it's like that …. Then the referees should have interfered, but they didn't. Does that mean they're telling the players something?" Pan Lin said.
Li Yibo stared blankly. Looking at the match screen again, Hai Wuliang was no longer crouched down. He was crouching with qi gathering in his palms. He was actually gathering qi. But from his perspective, he couldn't see any trace of River Sunset. Even so, he was prepared to launch a sneak attack.
The stupid referees. They thought that their decisions were very reasonable, but in reality, they were being used by Fang Rui.
This master of playing dirty, using the rules and observing the referees' inaction, determined that Song Qiying's character was approaching his ambush area.
