At 7 pm, the last match of Group A officially began.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Ya 'an Esports Center! This is the God Wars Official Pro League's second round, Week 5. The match between Tianheng and Luo Divine Hall will determine the final ranking of Group A! "
"Next, let us introduce the contestants from both sides …"
The two commentators quickly introduced the players.
In the soundproof room, everyone was using the time to adjust their computers. Coach Lin stood behind everyone with a notebook in hand. Tianheng's five players did not look nervous. Even Cheng Xing, who usually had a tense expression, was smiling in a relaxed manner today. They had already won four matches. Even if they lost this match, they could still advance, so the players did not feel any pressure.
"Both sides are ready. Let us begin the first round of BP!"
The screen showed the match. In the first round, Luo Divine Hall was randomly assigned to the blue side.
Their first ban was the [Priest of Blessings]. This support was the key to Sky Huan's ability to deal with the slow operations and the roaming formation of the illusionists. Banning him was equivalent to destroying two of Sky Huan's systems.
Coach Lin continued to ban Shield of Radiant Light as support. The opposing team immediately locked Lord of the Abyss in a small black room, while Coach Lin banned support Seraph. This was a strong control-type support that could seal people in place and prevent them from moving.
"Tianheng's BP this season is usually to ban support in the first stage to reduce the pressure on the bottom lane. However, when the other teams play Tianheng, they will not continuously ban junglers. "
"That's right. In the past, when everyone played Tianheng, they would crazily ban junglers. This season, they will target support, mid laner, and top laner … This is because everyone has realized that there is no end to the jungler heroes. Shuoyue can still fatten up the mid laner by choosing a tool jungler. Once a harvester like Lord of the Abyss becomes fat, there is no way to stop it! "
"Let's see what both sides will choose first."
Luo Divine Hall took the top laner Black Dragon Knight. This was a method of "replacing ban with pick". Didn't Qin Yizhu like this hero a lot? I won't ban, but I'll snatch it first. You won't be able to pick it either.
When it was Tianheng's turn, the first and second floor directly took the [Wind Spirit] archer and [Deer Spirit] support.
The two commentators looked at each other in surprise. "They're actually using this duo!" "The Deer Spirit is a very fragile support, but it's very strong in solo defense. It can jump onto its teammates and give them a shield that prevents them from being controlled."
"However, this hero, Deer Spirit, can't take the initiative to start a team. His control skills are also slow and soft. In this case, Tianheng's frontline might not be calm enough. It won't be easy to fight a team with a weak lineup."
On the second and third floors of the Luo Divine Hall, they took down the [Forest Envoy] and [Poison Warlock] duo. The idea behind this duo was that the [Poison Warlock] would attack quickly to stack poison on the opponent, while the [Forest Envoy] would be responsible for healing. The opponent kept losing HP, while our side kept regaining HP. It was a battle of attrition, and they would frequently beat the opponent back to the ground, snowballing to establish an economic advantage.
On the 3rd floor of Tianheng, they chose [Paladin] to tank the damage.
In the first phase, both sides decided on the top and bottom lanes. The middle and jungle would be left for P2.
The Luo Divine Hall coach did not hesitate to ban [Stealthed Bandit] and [Pugilist], a jungler and a jungler. Lin Feng consecutively banned [World Destroyer Sorcerer] and [North Sea Giant Demon], two cannon mages.
"The mid laner and jungler have been banned from many versions of the strong heroes!"
"At this moment, it's time to test the hero pools of both sides."
On the blue side of the Luo Divine Hall, the mid laner [Frost Goddess] was first taken. When it was Tianheng's turn, the 4th and 5th floors took down the two heroes, [Solar Sorcerer] and [Sword Immortal]!
"Solar Sorcerer!"
"Lieyang actually chose a melee Sorcerer for this round? Is this the current lineup? "
"Tianheng's support is rather fragile. The mid laner can start a team with a melee Sorcerer. As for the jungler, [Sword Immortal], he has a lot of movement and is very difficult to control. He needs to have explosive hand speed to kill small monsters and gain passive skills. It's easy to screw up! "
"That's right. [Sword Immortal]'s jungler is very unstable. After stacking five layers of passive skills, he can move agilely and quickly kill the opposing hero. But once he can't respawn, he will be sending himself to his death."
The Luo Divine Hall coach frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Use [Demon Hunter] to fight [Sword Immortal]."
[Demon Hunter] was a jungler with the longest attack range. It could hunt enemies from a distance and use big moves to pursue them. [Sword Immortal] was very agile. If a jungler with short legs was chosen, he would not be able to reach him. Choosing [Demon Hunter] was a good counter.
The coach paused for a moment before saying, "For this round, keep an eye on their jungles. Don't let Chi Shuo develop!"
The match began.
The Luo Divine Hall had indeed invaded the jungles to snatch Chi Shuo's blue buff. [Sword Immortal] was as fragile as paper in the early stages. There was no way to fight this wave. Chi Shuo immediately released his blue buff and quickly collected the red buff.
The Luo Divine Hall had tacitly split into two teams at the beginning of the game. The top team had three players to counter blue, while the bottom team had two players to defend blue. As a result, the Luo Divine Hall had three buffs at the beginning, while Chi Shuo only received one buff.
"Three buffs at the beginning. It's a small advantage!"
"Yes, the Luo Divine Hall jungler is one level higher than Shuoyue. The River Crab in the middle lane might be lost."
Just as he finished speaking, the Luo Divine Hall jungler used Retribution to snatch the River Crab in the middle lane. His level was two levels higher than Chi Shuo's.
Tianheng was caught in a small headwind at the beginning of the game.
However, this small difference in economy was not enough to affect the battle. The difference was only in the jungler. As long as no one died, the economy of the mid, archer, and top laner would not fall behind the opponent.
When the first dragon spawned, Chi Shuo was only level 4, while the opponent's jungler was already level 6.
Ye Shaoyang asked, "Are we going to fight the dragon?"
Chi Shuo said straightforwardly, "Let it go. I'll go against Red Face."
The result of letting the dragon go was that the economy gap was even greater.
The two commentators were somewhat anxious. "The Luo Divine Hall's economy is 1,000 yuan ahead, and the jungler's position is 500 yuan higher than the opponent's jungler!" "If Tianheng continues like this, the economy gap will only increase!"
Chi Shuo calculated the timing of the buff's refresh and stole a red from the opponent's side.
After killing the dragon, the opponent immediately huddled together and pushed down the tower.
The jungler, Demon Hunter, placed a Hunting Mark on Cheng Xing. The Poison Warlock immediately followed up with a Poison Arrow Barrage. Cheng Xing was instantly poisoned by three stacks. He decisively used Flash to escape. They could not afford any more deaths.
As Cheng Xing had cleared a large number of creeps before returning home, the Luo Divine Hall only managed to take a small amount of health off the tower with their remaining minions. As for Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang, they took the opportunity to invade the opponent's jungle and recoup some of their losses.
Both sides steadily developed. The Luo Divine Hall once again organized an attack on Chi Shuo's blue buff.
At this moment, Chi Shuo was already level 6, while Ye Shaoyang was already level 6.
Chi Shuo placed a Gathering Mark in the jungle. Old Qin and Ye Shaoyang immediately rushed over.
It was a 3v3 team battle in the jungle.
The overall economy of the Luo Divine Hall trio was higher than that of the Tianheng trio, so they naturally fought fiercely. The top laner, Black Dragon Knight, directly used "Black Dragon Roar" to charge at Chi Shuo's face. The Demon Hunter followed up with a Locking Mark, crippling Chi Shuo!
At this moment, a golden beam of light emitted from Chi Shuo's body. It was the Paladin's "Substitute" skill.
As a defensive-type tank, the Paladin could "take all damage for his teammates for the next three seconds" by activating the Substitute skill. That was to say, all the skills that hit Chi Shuo would be transferred to Old Qin.
The Paladin began to lose HP, but Chi Shuo managed to preserve his life.
Ye Shaoyang, who had been waiting by the side, suddenly used an E skill to teleport over. The gigantic wheel in his hand smashed into the Frost Goddess, who was hiding in the bushes!
The Luo Divine Hall mid laner had been hiding there all this time, preparing to use a skill to freeze someone. When Ye Shaoyang suddenly charged at her, she reacted quickly and hurriedly used Flash to escape. She turned around and used the W skill, Three Feet of Ice, in a bid to freeze Ye Shaoyang. However, Ye Shaoyang cleverly slid to the side, dodging her freeze.
The golden wheel spun rapidly, creating a golden halo around the Frost Goddess.
As one of the few melee mages in "War of Gods," the Sun Wheel Mage's fighting style was as ferocious as a warrior's. She would stick close to her opponent's face and use the wheel to beat them up. Her rapid stacking of normal attacks caused the sun mark on the Frost Goddess to increase to five stacks. After the stacking of the spells' critical hits, every normal attack would cause the fragile mage's HP to plummet!
Seeing the Frost Goddess being chased by Ye Shaoyang, Chi Shuo, who was a distance away, used three consecutive teleportations to take her head off.
— First Blood!
— [Tianheng Shuoyue (Sword Immortal) killed SSD-Feifei (Frost Goddess)]!
Almost at the same time, another message popped up.
— [SSD-Luoshen (Demon Hunter) killed Tianheng Candle (Paladin)!]
Old Qin had just helped Chi Shuo tank the damage and was quickly crippled. The Luo Divine Hall duo had joined forces to kill him.
In this 1v1 exchange, both sides had lost a player, so it was not a loss for Tianheng. Chi Shuo, who had been suppressed all this while, had obtained the first kill. Furthermore, he had killed the opposing mid laner. Ye Shaoyang could also take the opportunity to snowball.
The Luo Divine Hall failed to counterattack and had no choice but to retreat.
Chi Shuo's economy was gradually improving.
And the result of the Luo Divine Hall's crazy jungler was that Cheng Xing in the bottom lane developed very comfortably. No one came to catch him. Happiness came so suddenly!
During this period of time, he had learned the positioning of Xie Weiyu's [Wind Spirit], so he was very familiar with this hero. Although the opposing bottom lane's [Poison Warlock] could stack poison, as long as he paid attention to his positioning and did not get hit by three consecutive arrows, he could withstand it.
When his HP fell below half, he would return and fight steadily.
Cheng Xing, who had not died once, had completed his core attack at the twelfth minute of the match.
As for the Luo Divine Hall's three consecutive junglers, they were repelled by the combined forces of Ye Shaoyang, Chi Shuo, and Qin Yizhu.
Old Qin had been killed twice, but Old Qin had focused on tanking. It did not matter if he died twice, but the crux of the matter was that the opposing mid laner had been killed twice by the combined forces of Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shuo!
[Ice Goddess] was a relatively clumsy hero to begin with, so she did not have any displacement abilities. Ye Shaoyang had fiercely charged at her and stuck close to her. The Ice Goddess, who was surrounded by a golden sun, could not withstand such a violent melee mage. There was also the jungler who was waiting for an opportunity to finish her off …
The Luo Divine Hall realized that something was amiss and immediately changed their strategy. "Grab the archer! Wind Spirit has matured! "
However, it was too late to grab Cheng Xing at this moment.
This was because Tianheng's mid laner and jungler would help the bottom lane!
It was a 4v4 team battle in the bottom lane. Tianheng looked rather fragile, making it difficult for them to withstand it. However —
Qujiang's [Deer Spirit] suddenly jumped nimbly onto Ye Shaoyang's [Sun Mage].
Ye Shaoyang flashed into the crowd and smashed the gigantic golden wheel in his hand at the [Poison Warlock]. The Luo Divine Hall wanted to control him, but when [Deer Spirit] supported a teammate, it could give the teammate a shield that was immune to control, increasing the teammate's HP and increasing the teammate's critical strike rate.
This soft support was equivalent to a piece of equipment.
Ye Shaoyang charged forward with the support, quickly scattering the Luo Divine Hall's formation. The opposing Poison Warlock was left with low HP and turned to run. Chi Shuo's [Sword Immortal] had already leveled up a few times in the jungle. Bai Yijian was as elegant as an immortal as he quickly moved from a distance. With a swipe of his [Poison Warlock]'s head, he instantly returned to his original position.
He truly came without a trace and left without a trace!
On the other side of the battlefield, the Luo Divine Hall's mid laner had joined forces to kill the archer. The Frost Goddess' control skill had been dodged by Cheng Xing's jump. The Demon Hunter wanted to kill Cheng Xing, but Cheng Xing had activated his "Wind" state to quickly jump back to the bottom of the tower. He was as nimble as a bouncing rabbit.
The duo had chased after Cheng Xing all day, but they had failed to kill him. Instead, they were crippled by Cheng Xing from a distance!
Ye Shaoyang continued to pursue the opposing mid laner with the "piece of equipment" that was Qujiang. Chi Shuo once again leveled up his passive and rushed over to cripple the Frost Goddess, helping Ye Shaoyang take the kill.
The Demon Hunter had no choice but to retreat from the jungle.
It was a 4v4 team battle in the bottom lane. Tianheng had killed two people and repelled the Luo Divine Hall's attack.
The two commentators said excitedly, "Tianheng's lineup is very interesting! On the surface, the support, Lu Ling, is used to protect the archer, but in the actual team battle, we realized that the support is supposed to follow the mid laner! "
"That's right. The support jumps directly to the mid laner, allowing the mid laner to charge into the crowd without any fear. This is the fierceness of a melee mage!"
"As for the archer, Wind Spirit, even without the support's protection, it is not easy to die if he moves agilely! The jungler, Sword Immortal, is the same. As he has many moves, he is also not easy to catch. "
"The core of Tianheng's match is not the jungler or the archer, but the mid laner who initiates the team battle!"
This was the confusion of the lineup. Sword Immortal was a very annoying jungler. The Luo Divine Hall's strategy of attacking the jungle from the start was not wrong. However, they had neglected the fact that Tianheng's true starting point was the mid laner. The person that the support needed to protect was also the mid laner!
Ye Shaoyang led Qujiang in a rampage. If the Luo Divine Hall did not kill him as soon as possible, their backline would be wiped out by him. But if they were to focus fire on him, then the Sword Immortal and Wind Elf, these two very flexible damage output points, would be able to deal explosive damage without any worries.
The Luo Divine Hall's captain was having a headache. He realized that towards the end, even though they had an economic advantage, they were still helpless in the team battle. The Luo Divine Hall's lineup was too cumbersome, while Tianheng's lineup was very agile.
In the critical wave of the dragon battle, it was a 5v5 tussle between both sides.
Ye Shaoyang's Sun Wheel Mage started the team battle once again. With Qujiang's close protection, he jumped into the crowd opposite him with a control-immune shield. With a "Blazing Sun's Radiance", the golden wheel swept out like a hurricane, stunning all the enemies in its path!
Qin Yizhu followed closely and jumped over, using "Divine Protection" to take on the damage for Ye Shaoyang.
With Qujiang's shield protecting him and Old Qin's substitute taking on the damage, Ye Shaoyang could boldly charge forward. Not only did he instantly scatter the opposing team's formation, the fragile [Frost Goddess] was also insta-killed by him!
The other Luo Divine Hall members quickly focused their attacks on Ye Shaoyang. In a blink of an eye, Old Qin, who had taken on the damage for others, was the first to collapse. Ye Shaoyang's shield was also shattered. The opposing support immediately used a control to pin Ye Shaoyang to his spot.
Ye Shaoyang, who had treated the mage as a warrior, finally stopped and could no longer move.
However …
Everyone focused their attacks on Ye Shaoyang, leaving Cheng Xing unattended!
Little Star was frantically moving around the periphery. As he jumped, he fired. In a blink of an eye, the Luo Divine Hall's front line was crippled. Chi Shuo had already refreshed his passive and launched a surprise attack from afar.
The master-disciple duo had often trained together in the past, so their tacit understanding was very high. Chi Shuo used a Great Summon to take down the opposing archer before using his Q to stun the opposing jungler.
Cheng Xing immediately aimed at the opposing jungler and shot two arrows.
Chi Shuo's Q continued to stun the opposing jungler. Cheng Xing hurriedly aimed at the jungler and shot two more arrows.
— [Tianheng Shuoyue (Sword Immortal) killed LSD-Xiaoyin (Poison Warlock)]!
— [Tianheng Fanxing (Spirit of the Wind) killed LSD-God Luo (Demon Hunter)]!
— [Tianheng Fanxing (Spirit of the Wind) killed LSD-Universe (Black Dragon Knight)]!
Tianheng only had Qin Yizhu and Ye Shaoyang die. As for the Luo Divine Hall, four people were killed, leaving only one support.
Ye Shaoyang attracted the enemy's firepower while Chi Shuo and Cheng Xing quickly moved around the periphery to clean up the battlefield. Tianheng's "Close Combat Mage" was a flexible lineup that opened the team, causing the Luo Divine Hall's team battle to collapse.
"Congratulations to Tianheng for winning the first match!"
"The MVP of this match is Tianheng Lieyang! He opened the team battle beautifully several times, scattering the opposing team's formation. He's clearly a mage, but he's as fierce as a warrior. This is the terrifying aspect of a [Solar Mage]! "
"Of course, Tianheng's other contestants also performed very well. Old Qin took the damage for others in a timely manner. Qujiang's support, as well as Chi Shuo and Little Star's reaping from the periphery. We realized that Tianheng's team's teamwork is much better and smoother than in the previous match!"
"That's right, Little Star managed to deal 40% damage in the team battle!"
Coach Lin, who was sitting in the audience, could not help but feel his eyes heat up when he saw this scene.
This lineup required the tacit cooperation of the five people, and not just Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang to set the pace. If the team battle was disconnected, Ye Shaoyang would die too quickly if he rushed in and opened the team battle, Tianheng would suffer an avalanche.
But the facts proved that the five of them were getting more and more tacit.
Especially in the final dragon battle, the five of them were like a rope that was twisted together. Old Qin helped Ye Shaoyang withstand the damage from the opponent's big move at the most opportune moment. Qujiang quickly followed Ye Shaoyang to open the team battle, while Cheng Xing and Chi Shuo hid far away. After their opponents used their key skills, the master and disciple duo would work together to clean up the battlefield.
Tian Huan's five people were like gears connected one after another, tightly fitting together and operating smoothly.
This team battle had destroyed the Luo Divine Hall!
This was an excellent team!
They did not just rely on Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang to set the pace, but everyone was able to play their part. Even Cheng Xing, who was once Tianheng's weak point, had chosen to be an agile archer. Without any support or protection, he was able to move around nimbly. As he dodged skills, he quickly shot arrows. He managed to deal 40% damage in this match!
Lin Feng had underestimated Qujiang in the past. He had always let Qujiang protect Little Star, which limited Qujiang's performance. In fact, Qujiang's support could try out more ideas, and not just be Cheng Xing's sidekick.
For example, in this match, Qujiang had supported Ye Shaoyang to open the team battle. The results were unexpectedly good.
In today's match, Coach Lin realized that —
This season, Tianheng had the strength to compete for the championship of the division.
They had not been to an international competition for a long time. This year, they had to go to the international competition to take a look!
