For the first round, the lineups of both sides were quickly determined.
Tianheng [Vampire Duke] was the Warrior top laner, [King of Fighters] was the jungler, [Saint Spirit Mage] was the tool mid laner, [Paladin] was the support at the bottom lane, and the archer was [Vampire Princess] who needed to develop, but had a big skill that could drain health.
The Yueying top laner was Xu Zhuo's famous hero [Kung Fu Master]. He was very good at carrying and cutting off the backline. The jungler was the tool [Pugilist]. The mid laner was the cannon [Destroyer Sorcerer], the support [Radiant Shield], and the archer [Wind Spirit].
The two commentators analyzed, "Tianheng's output points are top, bottom, and jungler. Yueying's output points are top, bottom, and mid. Both sides' support was very tanky and had the ability to start a team. In terms of lineups, both sides have balanced and stable lineups. The outcome of the team battle depends on the players' grasp of timing. "
"That's right. The [Saint Soul Mage] that Lieyang chose can forcefully seal the opponent. It's more effective against the [Wind Spirit], which is why in this round, Xiao Yu brought along the [Blink] because she can't break the seal."
"Yueying's support, [Radiant Shield], allows her to raise her shield to block critical damage. Xiao Yu's living environment is actually quite good. On Little Star's side, the support [Paladin] can take the damage for him. His [Vampire Princess] can also suck blood, so he also has decent survivability. "
"Let us enter the first battle!"
From the start of the first game, Chi Shuo did not choose to invade, and Yueying did not disturb the jungle either. Both sides developed steadily.
Yueying's tool jungler gave the first red buff to Xie Weiyu. During the laning, Xie Weiyu quickly moved and used the red buff to stick to Cheng Xing. Cheng Xing couldn't beat them in the early game, so he had no choice but to hide under the tower and clear the enemies.
In the middle lane, Ye Shaoyang dodged several skills from the opposing mid laner. He only focused on clearing the troops and assisted Chi Shuo in snatching the first River Crab.
On the top lane, Xu Zhuo, as one of the top top laners in the Alliance, had a "steady but fierce" playstyle. He was very good at taking advantage of opportunities to wear down the opponent. When the opponent was in front of him, he would suddenly go up and use a series of combos to cripple the opponent.
Old Qin's Vampire Duke couldn't beat the Kung Fu Master before he could use his ultimate skill. After exchanging two waves of skills, he was left with little HP. He had no choice but to return to the tower to eat the HP Bun.
"Tianheng is going to be a bit difficult to play against during the match-up period!"
"That's right. If Old Qin had chosen to be a tank, it would have been better. The opposing Warriors wouldn't have been able to hurt him. But in this game, Old Qin chose to take the Warrior side. The Warrior's defense was much worse than the Tank's. Captain Xu's maneuvering skills are very good. [Kung Fu Master] can move frequently and is much more agile than [Vampire Duke]. It's normal for him to be knocked back to the tower. "
"As for the bottom lane, Xiao Yu got the red buff. The archer got the red buff, so the laner will be more aggressive. Moreover, [Wind Spirit] can also move and is more agile than [Vampire Princess]. Xiao Xing was also pushed back to the tower."
"Tianheng's top and bottom lanes are being suppressed. Will Nakano find a chance to help?"
"Captain Chi Shuo is blue. Level 6 should be able to help the bottom lane!"
The two commentators guessed. Tianheng's top and bottom lanes couldn't beat Yueying, but as long as Nakano came to help, the result would be different. Everyone knew that Tianheng's Nakano was good!
In a 2v2 on the bottom lane, Yueying had the advantage. But in a 4v4, Tianheng could win as long as they could kill the archer.
The live audience and the netizens in the live broadcast room also looked at the big screen in anticipation. Finally, Chi Shuo reached level 6. Yueying's jungler hadn't reached level 6 because of the buff in the beginning of the game. This was a very good opportunity to catch someone.
However …
Chi Shuo didn't catch someone? He actually went to the middle lane to freeload?!
The two commentators looked at each other. "Level 6, he didn't go to the bottom lane but stuck out in the middle lane?"
"He probably wants to wait for Lieyang to reach level 6. After all, [King of Fighters]'s control can't control the opposing archer. Only the mid laner's seal can guarantee that he can control [Wind Spirit]. "
"Yes, he didn't rush to fight the first dragon. Captain Chi returned to the top lane after freeloading a wave of experience in the middle lane. Does he want to continue farming?"
Level 6 junglers usually went to a certain lane to catch people. If they couldn't find an opportunity, they would return to the jungle to develop. However, Chi Shuo didn't go to catch people this round. He returned to the jungle directly. This strategy was very common in online games. He would develop silently and wait for the crucial equipment to be ready before catching people to ensure the success rate of catching people.
Ye Shaoyang quickly reached level 6 and left the middle lane.
Yueying's mid laner immediately reminded him, "Mid laner, miss!"
The top and bottom lanes quickly retreated to prevent Ye Shaoyang from flashing and starting a team fight.
However, the audience with the omniscient view noticed that Ye Shaoyang didn't go to the top and bottom lanes to provide support. Instead, he crouched in the grass near the river in the jungle, observing the movements of the opposing jungler. Sure enough, when he saw the jungler pass by the top lane, he immediately signaled Old Qin, "Retreat to the top lane!"
Qin Yizhu was level 6 at this time. As soon as Ye Shaoyang finished speaking, the opposing jungler popped out from the grass and jumped over the tower to attack him. Xu Zhuo immediately followed up with damage output. The two of them were fighting two against one. It was obvious that they wanted to kill him under the tower.
Qin Yizhu used his lifesteal skill and braced himself to charge forward. He desperately cleared the last wave of troops and then retreated with a flash!
"He escaped with only a sliver of health left!" The commentator said excitedly, "This flash was too timely. He only had a sliver of health left." "The opposing team couldn't continue chasing because the troops were cleared. The tower's damage was very high."
Sure enough, the tower continuously attacked the opposing players within its range. Yueying's top laner and jungler were crippled by the tower and didn't chase after them. Old Qin ran to the safety of the inner tower and pressed the return button.
Old Qin's fearful voice came from the live chat. "Fortunately, I ran away in time!"
Ye Shaoyang looked at the top lane and smiled. "Not bad. They caught this wave for nothing."
They didn't kill him and the tower wasn't destroyed. The jungler came here for nothing.
This way, Cheng Xing at the bottom lane could use the time to develop. In a 2v2, as long as he wasn't stunned by the opposing team's support, Xie Weiyu wouldn't be able to kill him quickly. After all, his ultimate skill could lifesteal. It was useless even if Xie Weiyu crippled him. Little Xing used Lifesteal to heal a wave of troops and recovered his health back to full.
After a while, Yueying's jungler came to the bottom lane again.
The Pugilist could jump over from a distance and stun the enemies within range with a horizontal slash. Cheng Xing and Qujiang had already retreated under the tower after receiving Ye Shaoyang's notification signal. However, the opposing team was fighting 3v2 and could directly jump over the tower to kill them!
The Pugilist got past the crowd control and Xie Weiyu fired wildly from afar. In the blink of an eye, Cheng Xing's health was low. Qujiang used the Paladin's substitute skill in time to help Little Xing take the damage.
After the two seconds of stun ended, Cheng Xing immediately flashed and escaped!
Qujiang's economy wasn't high at this time. He only bought support equipment and was killed by the opposing team before he could finish his defensive equipment.
— — First blood!
Xie Weiyu got first blood.
Tianheng's jungler sold his support and escaped with a sliver of health.
The two commentators: "Tianheng's escaping ability in the top and bottom lanes is really top-notch. They can even escape like that?"
"It's indeed harder to catch them than before. I remember when we were in Team A, Old Qin and Little Xing were killed a few times when they were playing against Yueying."
After a while, Yueying's jungler came to the top lane again after farming resources in the jungle. The jungler and top laner wanted to kill Qin Yizhu in a 2v1 battle. However, Old Qin had a keen sense of smell and noticed that the opposing team was coming to catch him. Once again, he activated his army and escaped with a sliver of health.
The two commentators didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "They escaped just in time!"
"It feels like they've practiced pressure games before, right? They're very good at escaping! "
"That's right. Old Qin flashed with a sliver of health, and Little Xing also escaped with a sliver of health. Moreover, before they escaped, they cleared out the minions. The opposing team didn't have any minions, so they couldn't push the tower. Their losses weren't that big."
When Xu Zhuo saw this, he was very puzzled. "Where's the opposing jungler?"
The bottom lane support said, "He hasn't shown up yet. He's developing in the jungle, so we can't see him."
Xu Zhuo immediately said, "Go find the jungler's position. Don't get caught."
There was something wrong with the Tianhuan Squad today.
In the past, Tianheng's jungler would have already spawned at this point in the game. But today, even though Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang were level 6, the two of them didn't try to grab the bottom lane or top lane.
Ye Shaoyang missed frequently, but he didn't appear in the map. He was probably hiding in the bushes to watch.
Chi Shuo …
He didn't show up at all. It was as if he had disappeared from the map?
Xie Weiyu quickly reacted. "Tianheng's top and bottom lanes are just bait to lure us in. The jungler is the core! Their jungler is developing like crazy. Once he develops, it won't be easy for them to win the team battle later on. "
Xu Zhuo said, "Go into the jungle and force Chi Shuo out!"
If it were any other team, they might have been fooled by Tianheng's top and bottom lanes.
But Xu Zhuo knew Chi Shuo very well. Xie Weiyu and Ye Shaoyang had often played together during this period of time, so he knew Shaoyang's style very well. These two big devils had been running around crazily to set the pace in the previous game. But today, they suddenly stopped trying to grab people. Instead, they restrained themselves and watched from the sidelines. Something was very wrong!
If their opponents fell for their trap and tried to grab the top and bottom lanes but failed to kill them, it would mean that they were allowing Tianheng's jungler to develop steadily!
Chi Shuo, who was developing steadily, once he came out of the mountain, he would cause devastating damage.
Fortunately, Xu Zhuo and Xie Weiyu noticed it immediately.
Xie Weiyu led the support and jungler to the bottom half of the jungle to look for Chi Shuo. But they couldn't find him. Xie Weiyu stole a small monster and reminded them, "He's in the top half of the jungle. Be careful, Brother Xu."
Xu Zhuo said, "The blue buffs in the top half of the jungle have already disappeared. What is he doing here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhuo suddenly realized something. He ran over to the Dragon Pit to take a look and saw a figure walking away.
A notification popped up on the screen.
[Vanguard Tyrannosaurus has been killed by the King of Fighters.]
Xu Zhuo resisted the urge to roll his eyes. "He's stealing Tyrannosaurus!"
Chi Shuo stole the Vanguard Tyrannosaurus by himself.
In the top half of the jungle, the first Tyrannosaurus that spawned was called the Vanguard Tyrannosaurus. The jungler could kill it alone. After killing it, the minions of the three lanes would become the "Vanguard Captain" and push the tower faster. However, the side that killed it didn't receive any buffs.
In the middle and late stages of the game, the Vanguard Tyrannosaurus would become the golden-marked Primordial Tyrannosaurus, which was the Tyrannosaurus. If it was killed at this time, not only would the three lanes become the Tyrannosaurus Captain with strong attack power, but the side that killed the Tyrannosaurus would also receive buffs to attack and defense, making it easier to win in a team battle.
Therefore, the Tyrannosaurus was also a resource that both sides would fight for in the later stages of the game.
However, in the early stages of the game, stealing one Tyrannosaurus didn't have much of an impact.
Xu Zhuo said, "Prepare to defend. Clear the three Tyrannosaurus and push the bottom lane."
The Vanguard Tyrannosaurus got up quickly. Yueying quickly cleared the minions of the three lanes. Then, according to the captain's instructions, Nakano, Setsuke, and the other four people pushed the bottom lane. Cheng Xing retreated early and directly let go of the bottom tower.
Due to the early stages of the game, Cheng Xing and Old Qin's finances were a few hundred yuan worse than those of the top lane and the archer. Xu Zhuo looked at the game's data panel and found that Xie Weiyu had already finished the key damage output equipment. He decisively said, "Middle lane team, push the middle tower as soon as possible!"
Both sides were fighting in the middle lane team battle. Xu Zhuo directly flashed to the back row and instantly killed the archer!
Yueying's jungler immediately followed and wanted to cut off Tianheng's damage output as soon as possible.
Cheng Xing didn't escape this time because his flash was on cooldown and he didn't have a displacement skill. He couldn't escape.
Thus, Cheng Xing directly used his life-steal skill and braced himself to attack Captain Xu's face. A fragile archer attacking a warrior's face. Wasn't this looking for death?
Even if the skill could life-steal, the amount of life-steal wouldn't be as much as the opponent's.
In the blink of an eye, Cheng Xing was crippled. Qujiang used a substitute skill on Cheng Xing's body. Cheng Xing fought as he ran and directly ran back to the second tower. At this time, his health bar was flashing red. He only had a pitiful 100 health points left. The opponent could casually use a normal attack to kill him.
Unfortunately, the distance between them was too far. The opponent couldn't catch up!
Qujiang's substitute skill helped Cheng Xing block a large amount of damage while he fell under the tower.
Cheng Xing's chest felt warm. "Thank you, Brother Qu."
Qujiang smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm accumulating material for my 100 ways to die."
Cheng Xing: "…"
Ye Shaoyang looked at the opponent's health and decisively said, "Kill the back row!"
As soon as he said that, Ye Shaoyang, who had been watching the show from the middle lane, suddenly flashed to the back row. He used an ultimate to seal and caught Xie Weiyu who was hiding there! At the same time, Ye Shaoyang gave Chi Shuo a light shield to protect him. Chi Shuo immediately followed. With the shield, Chi Shuo dominated the back row and killed Xie Weiyu with a burst of attacks!
At the same time, Old Qin flashed to the back row and used his life-steal ultimate to kill the opposing mid laner with two slashes!
The live audience was stunned.
F * ck, Old Qin has grown up. He cooperated with the jungler to kill the opposing mid laner?
Was this still the unknown Old Qin?!
The commentator said excitedly, "Tianheng's teamwork in this group battle is too beautiful! The opposing mid laner went around the back and sacrificed himself to protect the archer! The top laner, jungler, and mid laner worked together to kill the opposing mid laner in an instant! Tianheng lost a support to replace the opposing mid laner and archer. This is a huge win! "
"That's right, Old Qin went around the back with Sun and Moon. What a surprise! He directly flashed to the opposing mid laner's face and killed the mid laner with two slashes before the opponent could react! Although his equipment isn't good enough, it's still very easy for him to kill a defenseless mid laner! "
"The Warriors, who had been suppressed in the top lane, are finally standing up this time!"
The audience burst into thunderous applause.
Backstage, in the spectator area, Zhao Xinan couldn't help but complain when he saw this. "Yueying is done for this round. Look at Chi Shuo's equipment. He has already dropped three pieces of equipment. When he went to kill Xie Weiyu just now, he killed him with two punches."
Zhao Xinping said calmly, "Their top and bottom laners are bait to resist pressure. They are specifically used to lure the opposing mid laners to catch them and then find a way to resist the pressure and escape. This way, the jungler has plenty of time to develop."
The facts proved that this was the case. Tianheng's top laner and archer resisted the pressure in the early stages. The jungler's development was too good. In the later stages of the team battle, the top laner, jungler, and mid laner worked together to attack the backline. Yueying's backline had a hard time surviving!
Tianheng Squad dragged on from the disadvantage in the early stages to the later stages. They actually won the team battle.
The archer was handed over to Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang to kill.
Old Qin flashed around in the team battle and once again killed the opposing mid laner!
Backstage, in the spectator area, everyone had mixed feelings.
Tianheng's improvement speed was really beyond expectations. Cheng Xing was getting harder and harder to kill. Now, top laner Qin Yizhu also stood up. He was using this game to tell everyone —
He wasn't just a silent top laner who would silently choose a meat shield to protect his teammates.
He could also become an excellent Warrior who could split open the opponent's gap!
Although he wasn't a top laner in the league and couldn't beat Xu Zhuo or Zhao Xinan in the lane, he could still win. However, in the team battle, he could trade his life for the opposing team's core and create space for his teammates to attack.
Tianheng didn't only have Nakano.
Tian Huan was a battle team whose overall strength was also increasing!
During this period, not only was Little Xing practicing hard, but Old Qin was also practicing every day. He knew how to escape and how to kill people. He even let the kids of Team 2 form groups of three or four to catch him in the top lane to withstand the greatest pressure.
Old Qin and Qujiang joined Tianheng in the S7 season. They didn't play with Tianheng in the international competition. Instead, they joined the team when Ming Sheng retired and Chi Shuo took over as captain at the age of 18. They joined the team during Tianheng's most chaotic period.
Ever since they officially debuted, Tianheng's results had been going downhill.
They had also been questioned by netizens.
They hadn't experienced Tianheng's peak.
However, they didn't want to be Tianheng's weakness.
This season, they would do their best to accompany their favorite team back to the top!
