In the second round, Tianheng was on the blue side, while the ATB was on the red side.
Tianheng was the first to ban, and Lin Feng targeted the support. [Light of Blessing], a support that could dispel crowd control and increase shield, was the first to be banned. The ATB then banned [Stealth Thief].
In a BO5, it was common to ban the strong hero that one used to prevent the opponent from using it. The ATB used the Thief to good effect in the first round, and banned Chi Shuo in the second round. This was to prevent Chi Shuo from using the Thief against Ye Shaoyang.
Lin Feng calmly continued to ban the support and [Radiant Shield].
The ATB banned Ye Shaoyang's famous hero, [Lord of the Abyss].
Yao Mu saw this and said, "The ATB has been targeting the mid-laner today. The two core heroes, [Lord of the Abyss] and [Stealth Thief], are not going to be released in the next round."
Brother Dong said, "Yes, Yangyang's [Lord of the Abyss] got a pentakill in the Chinese finals and was also the MVP of the finals! The ATB is obviously afraid of this hero. But if this is the case, [King of Fighters] and [Goddess of Destiny]'s classic mid-laner combo will be released. Why won't Tianheng take it? "
Yao Mu said, "I don't think they should take it because Tianheng is on the blue side. They will only take one hero first. No matter who Tianheng picks first, the opponent will dismantle Tianheng's combo."
In the first round, Tianheng did not hesitate to ban [Sword and Blade Will].
Brother Dong said, "The first pick is to take the top laner? Looks like Old Qin is going to use a warrior to deal damage this round. "
When the ATB saw this, the first and second floor immediately chose [Vampire Baron] and [Goddess of Destiny] as the top laner, dismantling Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shuo's [King of Fighters] and [Goddess of Destiny] combo. Obviously, the ATB specialized in studying Tianheng's lineup.
Tianheng's second and third floor picked [Wind Spirit] and [Paladin] to protect the path.
The ATB picked [King of Fighters] on the third floor.
The domestic audience couldn't help but complain —
[Tianheng's Very Strong King of Fighters + Destiny's Daughter has been selected by the ATB!]
[Why didn't you snatch Nakano first? Nakano is being targeted so miserably, but he still doesn't pick wild nuclei or medium nuclei. In the first phase, he always picks archers. He knows that Little Star doesn't have a main CC!]
[I don't know what the practice team is thinking. The midlaner and jungler have been left for the second stage. All the useful heroes have been banned.]
It was no wonder that the fans were anxious. Tianheng had lost in the first round because they had placed their mid laner and jungler in the second round. Ye Shaoyang's Assassin and Chi Shuo's jungler were all banned, so their lineup was very passive.
Sure enough, when the ATB saw that Tianheng didn't pick a single, they continued to ban Nakano in the second phase.
Ninja Chi Shuo was out of the question, and Ye Shaoyang wasn't going to get Illusionist, which was a rhythmic attack. This further reduced the pool of mid-solo junglers.
Lin Feng targeted the archers that the ATB hadn't picked and continuously banned [Shooting Arrow] and [Holy Spirit Archer].
The ATB's archer, Jin Changhao, used [Sharpshooter] in the first round. In the second round, two archers were banned, and Cheng Xing took another one. He had no choice but to pick [Lifesteal Overlord], who was dragging the tempo, and rely on his big move to survive.
Tianheng's fourth and fifth floor chose [Traveler of Light] and [Fighter].
This choice surprised the live audience, and the live broadcast was filled with question marks — —
[Ghost? [Paladin] support, and [Traveler of Light] support?]
[There's no AP damage?]
[Could it be a dual support? Would there be enough damage?]
Yao Mu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Tianheng's lineup … [Traveler of Light] has always been used by Qujiang, but [Will of Blade and Sword] and [Paladin] are both in the front row. There's no mid-laner this round?"
Brother Dong said: "Choosing [Fighter] as a jungler, it's obvious that they're going to carry the lane system. Let's wait until the final heroes are exchanged. [Traveler of Light] is a speed boost support, so we don't know who will get it."
Yao Mu nodded: "That's true. After all, in the previous matches, Lieyang used an archer to carry the mid lane, Qujiang also used a mid-solo support, and Tianheng has a dual mid-laner. Heroes can be exchanged. "
The ATB's Lian frowned slightly: "Are they going to carry the lane? The support will take [Forest Ranger], heal and stall them. Don't let them push the tower. "
The support Zheng Zaiming nodded seriously: "Understood, Lian. I'll protect Changhao."
The archer Jin Changhao said doubtfully: "[Wind Spirit]'s tower pushing speed is very slow. If they want to carry the lane, why don't they choose [Machine Gun Hunter], who has a faster tower pushing speed? Tianheng's BP is really strange. "
Cui He laughed: "But we're targeting the mid-laner too hard. They don't have any heroes to choose from."
After both sides chose their heroes, they began to exchange. The five positions of the ATB were very clear. The top laner was [Vampire Baron], the bottom laner was [Vampire Lord] + [Forest Ranger], and the mid-laner was the classic combination [King of Fighters] + [Goddess of Destiny].
On Tianheng's side, the audience was puzzled. [Will of Blade and Sword] was switched to the top laner for Old Qin, the jungler was [Fighter], and the hero used by Ye Shaoyang on the third floor was [Traveler of Space]!
Yao Mu was shocked: "Lieyang is actually using [Traveler of Space] as the mid laner?! A support mid laner? "
Sure enough, Cheng Xing's 4th floor was switched to [Wind Spirit], who had [Purification], while Qujiang's 5th floor was the front row tank [Paladin].
Brother Dong rubbed his chin: "This round isn't necessarily a carry lane? Yangyang is the support mid laner. [Traveler of Space] can indeed drop equipment. His Q skill is a straight line explosion damage, his W skill is an AOE boost, his E skill activates [Light Backtrack] to heal his teammates, and his R skill is a big move [Silence]. "
Yao Mu said worriedly: "But a support mid laner with a jungler like a tool wouldn't be enough damage, right?" She paused, took a deep breath, and said: "Tianheng's lineup for this round is very decisive. Obviously, they practiced in the mock competition. It's too early to draw conclusions. Let's see how the players perform in the competition!"
On the stage, Xie Yuan, who was watching the competition, couldn't help but complain: "Not enough damage? You're thinking too much. "
Fang Zhengqing narrowed his eyes and teased: "Let's give the ATB a taste of what it means to be fast."
The match began.
Ye Shaoyang went out and learned the W skill's AOE boost. He didn't even learn any damage skills and just led Chi Shuo to invade the blue buff jungle. Although the ATB sensed Tianheng's intentions and tried to defend, Ye Shaoyang accelerated and retreated. Chi Shuo quickly took the blue buff and ran away. The ATB's defenders couldn't reach them at all. Biquge
Immediately after, Ye Shaoyang accelerated and led Chi Shuo to the middle lane to take down the minions.
The two of them took down the minions together and snatched the river crabs together. Then, Ye Shaoyang continued to accelerate and led Chi Shuo to disappear into the river in the middle lane. The ATB players couldn't see them in their field of vision. Only then did the spectators, who had an omniscient view, know that Ye Shaoyang was actually leading Chi Shuo to the red buff.
When Yao Mu saw this, she finally understood Tianheng's train of thought. "Lieyang is using [Space Traveler] as the mid laner, so he can work closely with Shuoyue! The middle lane is the closest position to the jungler. He accelerates and Shuoyue to clear minions and clear the jungle together. Their speed is much faster than the jungler on the other side! "
Brother Dong teased, "In that case, the two of them can split the loot equally. Their development won't be affected too much. Chi Shuo is leading Yangyang, which is equivalent to driving a luxury sports car to clear the jungle. And Cui He on the other side is even riding a bicycle! "
When the Chinese spectators saw this, they spammed a row of 666 comments on the bullet screen.
[Shuoyue + Lieyang, their speed is so fast!]
[Yangyang, slow down a little. My omniscient view is getting blurry ~]
[Shuoyue and Lieyang are driving a luxury car, and they're clearing the jungle hand in hand?]
At this moment, Yao Mu's sharp eyes suddenly noticed that something was wrong with Ye Shaoyang's equipment.
She couldn't help but ask, "Support mid laner? Let's look at Yangyang's equipment. The first item is [Cooldown Shoes], and the second item seems to be [Explosive Wand]? "
Brother Dong hurriedly echoed, "That's right. The [Demonic Crystal] he bought is indeed the prerequisite for [Explosive Wand]! This round, he's not following the conventional routine at all. He's going all out! "
[Explosive Wand]. This equipment's effect was to release a single skill that would trigger an "explosion" effect. It would cause chain damage to enemies in a small area, and it would definitely be a critical hit. The equipment's cooldown time was 20 seconds.
Because it was a "guaranteed critical hit" and the equipment's cooldown time was 20 seconds, this equipment was more suitable for a "one-shot" style.
Ping. Everyone often saw [Space Traveler] play the support role in a match. It would heal their own archer and increase his speed. When fighting in a team, it would use the difference in speed to pull back and forth.
This was the first time they had seen Ye Shaoyang play the mid laner with this hero.
In the mid lane, when Pu Yuanxi saw that Ye Shaoyang had disappeared, he immediately warned, "Mid laner MISS, be careful!"
The support, Zheng Zaiming, thought that Chi Shuo had just appeared in the mid lane. After clearing the jungle, he could very well support the mid laner. Just as he was about to scout around the bushes near the Tianheng Red buff, he saw Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shuo circle around from the side as fast as the wind!
Ye Shaoyang activated the team's speed boost. Chi Shuo, Qujiang, Cheng Xing, and Ye Shaoyang all attacked together. Jin Changhao, who was still clearing the lane, didn't even have time to react before he was stunned by Chi Shuo. Qujiang followed up with a combo control, Cheng Xing quickly used [Shoot], and Ye Shaoyang threw out a Q skill.
Jin Changhao used [Blink] to escape, but unfortunately, the Q skill on him exploded. Even if he used [Blink], he would still be killed!
— — First Blood!
How many minutes had it been since the start of the match? Ye Shaoyang's [Space Traveler] had actually gotten a kill!
The support from the ATB hurriedly turned around and retreated, but Ye Shaoyang activated his w skill to speed up. Chi Shuo's [Fighter] quickly moved and stunned Zheng Zaiming on the spot. Cheng Xing used [Shoot] from afar to take the support's kill!
Brother Dong couldn't help but shout, "Beautiful! This wave of quick support caught the ATB road duo off guard. Yangyang's [Shoot] was too accurate. It landed right where Jin Changhao used [Blink] to escape. Jin Changhao died because of it. What a loss. "
Yao Mu smiled and said, "The mid laner got a double kill. This wave's tempo was really good."
On the top lane, Old Qin said that Yangyang's support had long since disappeared without a trace.
At this time, Cui He had just finished farming the first wave of monsters.
His speed of farming alone was far slower than Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang's combined [Blink] speed.
Cui He frowned and said, "Lu, be careful. After you revive, get ready to fight the little dragon!"
After their first death, they quickly revived. The ATB duo quickly arrived near the Dragon Pit. Tianheng's four players also quickly gathered. The ATB's Nakano was indeed very strong. Cui He's [King of Fighters] took advantage of the opportunity and linked up with Pu Yuxi's [Goddess of Destiny]. The two of them threw their skills at Cheng Xing!
As long as Little Star died, Tianheng would face the problem of not having enough DPS in the team battle.
However, Cheng Xing's HP dropped by a chunk and instantly recovered half of his HP. Pu Yuxi's ultimate skill was basically useless — — because Ye Shaoyang activated his E skill at the most appropriate time.
Light backtracked, and his HP returned to 1 second ago.
Cheng Xing took a wave of ultimate skills, but he wasn't insta-killed. Little Star cleverly used [Purification] to jump and run away. He fired from a distance and crazily dealt damage. Ye Shaoyang used [Blink] to attack while retreating.
The little dragon was repeatedly pulled away.
Cui He was annoyed and simply said, "Retreat. Don't waste time with them."
With [Void Traveler]'s lineup, they were especially good at pulling back and forth. With [Blink] activated, they could attack or retreat. Ye Shaoyang's control of the machine was also very good.
The ATB wanted to start a team battle? Ye Shaoyang used [Blink] to lead his teammates away.
The ATB didn't want to attack them, but wanted to attack the little dragon? Ye Shaoyang used [Blink] again to harass them.
This kind of feeling was very uncomfortable.
The ATB simply let go of the little dragon and began to quickly develop.
Pu Yuxi's [Goddess of Fate] didn't really rely on economy, but it relied heavily on levels. It needed to reach level 8 before its damage would be maximized. Cui He's [King of Fighters] also didn't have any core equipment.
After the two of them developed for a while, they could coordinate with the jungler and get rid of the Tianheng Crispy Skin in one set.
If they killed Cheng Xing or Ye Shaoyang, the team battle would be very easy to win.
However, Cui He's wishful thinking wasn't going to go so smoothly.
Ye Shaoyang chose [Void Traveler] for this round, so he naturally had to play at a "fast pace" to the extreme. Tianheng's team battle was a variant of the operations team battle, relying on the mid laner to set the pace.
The mid laner's [Blink] would assist the jungler to quickly clear the jungle and support the frontline, establishing an advantage and pushing the tower.
Ye Shaoyang aimed for the middle lane this time.
After he and Chi Shuo finished clearing the red buffs, they pretended to be snipers and purposely exposed themselves in the middle of the road. The ATB's sniper and support learned their lesson and immediately retreated.
However, they didn't expect that after the two of them exposed themselves, Ye Shaoyang would immediately accelerate and lead Chi Shuo around the middle lane.
At this time, Pu Yuxi had just cleared a wave of troops and was planning to support the frontline. In the end, just as he left the middle lane, a huge needle fell from the sky and directly smashed into his face!
— — Traveler's Needle, Time Stops, and all enemy troops within range will be immobilized.
Pu Yuxi was caught off guard and was immobilized in place. Chi Shuo followed closely and used a combo to cripple him. Then, Ye Shaoyang threw a Q skill from a distance. Following the explosion of the Q skill, [Goddess of Fate] died on the way to support the frontline.
The dead [Goddess of Fate] let out a mournful voice: "Is this my fate?"
In China, the audience watching the livestream automatically translated the miserable voice of the hero into Chinese and couldn't help but flood the screen with "hahaha".
[Yangyang's [Goddess of Fate] killing voice: This is fate, don't try to resist!]
[Now, Yangyang has killed [Goddess of Fate] on the opposite side. Voice: Is this fate?]
[This hero's taunting skills are really maxed out.]
[The world's number one mid laner? That's it?]
Cui He frowned and said, "What's the situation?"
Pu Yuxi's expression was a little ugly. He really didn't expect that the Sun and Moon duo would come to the middle lane so quickly even though they had clearly appeared in the middle lane. Ye Shaoyang's acceleration really caught him off guard.
Pu Yuxi explained in a low voice, "It's a fake vision. Their real target this time is me."
Cui He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Voidwalkers run very fast after they accelerate. You guys be careful and try your best to defend the tower. They don't have enough DPS in the later stages of the game."
However, defending the tower wasn't that easy.
After Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shuo finished killing Pu Yuxi, they sneaked to the top lane.
At this time, Han Chengyu and Old Qin were in a 1v1 duel. Han Chengyu's individual strength was slightly higher than Old Qin's, and the former's hero was [Vampire Baron], which could use a big move and had a strong endurance. Old Qin was fighting him alone. After exchanging a wave of skills, his health was less than half.
Han Chengyu stared at Old Qin's health. At this time, the River Crabs respawned, and the two of them went forward to snatch the crabs. Old Qin obviously didn't snatch them. Han Chengyu saw the opportunity and used a combo — —
Seeing that Qin Yizhu only had a sliver of health left, two figures suddenly appeared from the bushes with acceleration. Qin Yizhu finished his act and turned around to strike Han Chengyu, stunning him on the spot.
Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang followed up and attacked. The three of them instantly killed Han Chengyu.
Han Chengyu couldn't help but curse, "F * ck! Why did they come to the top lane again? "
Originally, the two of them had killed off the blue buff, but in the end, the two of them ignored the blue buff and used acceleration to kill people in the top lane. No matter how strong Han Chengyu was, he couldn't fight 1v3. Even if he used Flash and Ye Shaoyang used acceleration to chase after him, he still couldn't escape.
For the first time, Han Chengyu felt irritated.
After playing in the game for so many years, he had encountered all kinds of opponents. However, in today's game, Tianheng's pace was too fast. The midlaner and jungler used acceleration and appeared and disappeared like ghosts. One of them grabbed the archers, the other suddenly jumped to the middle lane, and the next came to the top lane?
Ye Shaoyang's pace was very strange. It was like he was "grabbing people randomly". The vision support was useless. He would give a wave of fake vision so that you wouldn't be able to guess where he was.
After this wave of grabbing the top lane, the three of them worked together to quickly push the tower and remove the outer tower.
Then, Old Qin, Chi Shuo, and Ye Shaoyang invaded the red buff jungle on the opposite side. Cui He was using the red buff when Ye Shaoyang used a speed boost to silence him. Before he could use his skill, Chi Shuo took the opportunity to use [Retribution] to steal the red buff.
After the robbery, the three of them left.
Cui He: "…"
When the domestic audience saw this, they all got excited —
[Tianheng's fast-paced operations are very strong. I think the ATB is a little 'messy'!]
[Yangyang must be the one directing this round. His control of the line and the pace of his capture are too good!]
[Although he followed Captain Chi around frequently, he didn't miss a single soldier in the middle lane. That's the most amazing part.]
Only when a player had an absolutely accurate calculation of the spawn lines and an absolutely excellent grasp of the situation could he clear the spawn lines while quickly providing support and helping his teammates establish an advantage.
Could this be called a support type mid laner with a strong view of the big picture?
Ye Shaoyang's match was simply like a "coaching competition" for all the mid laners in the world!
18 minutes into the match, the economic gap between the two sides had widened to 2,000.
Although Cui He and Pu Yuanxi found a few opportunities, they were all successfully resolved by Ye Shaoyang's "speed boost to increase the distance". The two of them quickly realized that even if they made good equipment, they couldn't catch Tianheng's squishy mid laner together.
This was because Tianheng had an "acceleration mid laner".
In front of Ye Shaoyang's acceleration, the ATB's mid laner seemed particularly clumsy and couldn't catch up at all!
20 minutes into the match, the economic gap between the two sides was 3,000.
Tianheng's operations were very detailed. They kept on snowballing, pushing towers, and invading jungles.
The ATB couldn't find a counter, and the economic gap grew bigger and bigger.
Tianheng started to make a big dragon team, and the ATB braced themselves to look at the dragon.
The two sides pulled for a while, and Pu Yuanxi was the first to find an opportunity to use a combo to finish off Cheng Xing. However, Cheng Xing instantly activated Purify and jumped into the bushes. Cui He circled around to kill him, but Ye Shaoyang's W sped up to save Cheng Xing.
Then he turned around and used a big move — —
Traveler's Needle, Time Freeze.
The three ATB players at the back were silenced by Ye Shaoyang's huge AOE Clock!
Qujiang jumped to the side to protect Cheng Xing, while Chi Shuo and Old Qin worked together to attack the back of the ATB. Chi Shuo stunned one of them, while Old Qin slashed again and again, and in the blink of an eye, the entire back of the ATB was crippled.
Ye Shaoyang's Clock exploded!
— — Double kill!
— — Triple kill!
Triple kill!
Tool mid laner? Not enough damage?
Ye Shaoyang had a full set of damage output equipment, and the chain damage from his Q explosion directly took three lives.
On the other side, Cui He and Pu Yuanxi chased after Cheng Xing, and in the end, the two of them worked together to kill Cheng Xing and Qujiang. Unfortunately, the two of them had no skills left.
Ye Shaoyang used Acceleration to turn around and chase after them, while Old Qin and Chi Shuo each killed one.
The ATB team was wiped out!
Yao Mu said excitedly, "Tianheng's lineup is too flexible in this round! The top laner, Sword and Blade Will, can switch between sword and blade forms, and has displacement. The jungler, Pugilist, has displacement. The archer, Wind Spirit, has displacement. The mid laner, Space Traveler, has Acceleration! The ATB can't possibly fight the tanky Paladin, right? "
Brother Dong laughed and said, "In this wave of Dragon, the ATB, Nakano, forcefully killed Little Xing, and Qujiang blocked too much of the damage. In the end, although the two of them killed Little Xing, it's a pity that all of their teammates were killed."
Yao Mu said, "Tianheng took Dragon! Tianheng relied on their fast movement and meticulous operations to win the first round! "
It was said that the Korean teams' operational skills were very strong.
But Ye Shaoyang just didn't want to admit defeat.
As someone who had transmigrated from Earth, he had long had his eyes on the Space Traveler, a support that could accelerate. He had developed a set of strategies to accelerate the mid laner and support the rhythm of the game.
He was very glad that his teammates were able to keep up with his rhythm, especially Chi Shuo, who had been with him from start to finish. The two of them quickly moved and snowballed together, completely destroying the ATB's rhythm.
He wanted to use this game to tell the whole world — —
Our Chinese team's operational skills aren't bad either!
