It was 0040 in the morning by the time they finished playing ranked matches.
White Wolf King required a lot of maneuvering during team battles, so playing ranked matches continuously was tiring. Ye Shaoyang rubbed his sore wrist and said, "Captain Chi, let's stop here for today."
Chi Shuo didn't want to continue either, so he turned off his computer and said, "Okay, let's go back to the dorm and sleep."
Qin Yizhu was playing solo with a plate of walnuts on the table. He was playing games while eating, looking like a "top laner who stood aloof from worldly affairs." Qujiang and Cheng Xing were also playing ranked matches in China. When Chi Shuo got up, he saw the word "Failed" pop up on their screens.
Chi Shuo stopped and asked, "Why did you lose again?"
Cheng Xing hung his head and didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Ye Shaoyang laughed and said, "Did Little Xing get crushed?"
Qujiang said, "This game wasn't because of Little Xing." He opened the post-match panel and pointed at Cheng Xing's 9-4-5 record, then pointed at one of his teammates' 1-9-3 record and said helplessly, "He met an actor."
In a 5v5 game, if one of your teammates deliberately gave their opponent a kill to fatten up, it would be difficult to play with suppressed equipment, no matter how good you were.
There were a lot of streamers, professional players, and passersby in China. Qujiang and Cheng Xing had been playing ranked matches for the past two days, and their win rate could only be maintained at about 60%.
Chi Shuo asked with concern, "How is it? Are you two getting along better? "
Qujiang didn't embarrass Cheng Xing and said, "We're a little better than before."
Chi Shuo leaned in front of the computer and said, "Let me see the results."
He opened Qujiang's historical records and saw that they were all MVPs, defeats, victories, defeats …
But the problem was that Qujiang was playing as a support player. The support player won the MVP, which meant that the jungler, mid laner, and archer didn't play their roles.
In most of the matches, Cheng Xing's score hovered between 7 and 9, rarely exceeding 10.
On the other hand, Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang's average score was above 10.0.
The rating was based on the team's damage output and the number of kills, deaths, and assists. The main reason why Cheng Xing's rating was low was because he had died too many times. Of course, it was normal for the shooter to die. After all, the jungler on the other side would keep an eye on the shooter.
However, wasn't 5 deaths per round a little too much?
There were actually people who died eight times?
Chi Shuo opened the record of the game in which the archer died 8 times. He looked at Cheng Xing and lightly asked, "You're pretty good to be able to die 8 times. Are you trying to ram your head into their defense tower? "
Cheng Xing: "…"
Captain Chi was not angry at all when he criticized his disciple. He was even stricter than a coach.
As expected, Cheng Xing was scolded until his face and ears turned red. His head was about to hit the keyboard.
Qujiang helped to smooth things over. "Ahem, Little Xing met Ah Yan in this round of ranking and was killed by the opponent."
Chi Shuo raised his eyebrows. "Ah Yan is also playing ranking in the national server?"
Qujiang said, "Yes, he seems to be playing solo."
Chi Shuo was silent for two seconds. He still looked at his disciple sternly. "Even if you met Ah Yan, you shouldn't have been killed 8 times. In future official matches, are you going to directly send the opponent's jungler to Super God? "
Cheng Xing lowered his head and whispered, "I'll be more careful next time …"
Ye Shaoyang saw that Cheng Xing's eyes were red, so he took the initiative to ease the atmosphere. "Little Xing just transferred to the shooter position. He needs some time to get used to it." He walked forward and patted Cheng Xing's shoulder comfortingly. He smiled and said, "The shooter position needs the most development. If you don't die in the early game, you'll be the boss in the later game. Be patient. Don't rush. Take it slow. "
Cheng Xing didn't expect Ye Shaoyang to speak up for him. He was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ye Shaoyang gratefully and said with a red face, "I know, Brother Yang. I'll be more careful in the future."
Ye Shaoyang said, "Okay, let's go back to the dorm first. Don't stay up too late. "
Chi Shuo looked at his disciple and turned to leave with Ye Shaoyang.
The two of them returned to the dorm side by side. After entering the house, Ye Shaoyang fed Little White canned food and asked, "Who is the Ah Yan that Qujiang mentioned just now? To be able to destroy the bottom lane and kill Little Star eight times, this jungler sounds very powerful. "
Chi Shuo said, "Ah Yan. His ID is Yan Yan. His name is also Yan Yan. He's the jungler of the Fire Mark team. He likes to play solo in the national server when he's not training."
"Oh, him!" Ye Shaoyang thought of this person.
When he watched the match between Fire Mark and Jing Zhe, Ye Shaoyang didn't pay much attention to it because the highlight was always on the captains of both teams. The jungler's performance wasn't outstanding. But now, it seemed that this player's strength wasn't bad.
Chi Shuo explained, "Zhou Jiawen made a name for himself in the international server back then. The Fire Mark team paid a high price to sign him back. Actually, before Zhou Jiawen joined the team, Fire Mark also played a jungler lineup. Ah Yan's strength wasn't weak. After Zhou Jiawen joined the team, Fire Mark began to play a variety of positional games and team control systems in order to match the mid laner's style. Ah Yan's brilliance was partially covered by Little Zhou, but this player's performance was actually very stable. "
Ye Shaoyang was puzzled. "Fire Mark's jungler and mid laner are quite strong. Don't they play a jungler combination?"
Chi Shuo said, "Fire Mark also has a jungler combination, but they usually use the mid laner as the core and the jungler as the control. That's because Zhou Jiawen likes to kill people in one move when he competes. "
Thinking back to the competition, Zhou Jiawen's Terminator Sorcerer had indeed killed the opposing team's backline in one move. The opposing team didn't even have time to react, let alone use Flash to escape. They died instantly. Zhou Jiawen's playing style was fierce and calm. It was hard to imagine that this 19-year-old had become the captain of Fire Mark at such a young age.
Ye Shaoyang asked curiously, "The most powerful mid laners in the Chinese server are Zhou Jiawen and Fang Zhengqing, right?"
Chi Shuo said, "Yes. Zhou Jiawen likes a cannon sorcerer. He can kill people in one move from a long distance. His playing style is clean and efficient. Fang Zhengqing prefers a summoner sorcerer. He slowly tortures his opponent to death. His playing style is a bit like a hunter toying with his prey. Both of them also know how to use Assassin. However, the two teams don't have many lineups that revolve around Assassin. "
Ye Shaoyang turned to look at Chi Shuo and asked with a smile, "Then, Captain Chi, what do you think my playing style is?"
Chi Shuo thought of Ye Shaoyang's ^ _ ^ after he killed someone and coughed lightly. "You probably have the style of infuriating people to death?"
Ye Shaoyang nodded thoughtfully. "That makes sense. Infuriating the opponent to death is also a psychological tactic. "
Chi Shuo was speechless.
Little White was full and meowed as it hugged Ye Shaoyang's trousers.
Ye Shaoyang bent over and carried it up. He smiled and said, "Captain Chi, sleep early. Goodnight."
Chi Shuo watched him carry the cat into the bedroom. A hint of gentleness appeared in his eyes.
Shaoyang hadn't learned all the midlaner heroes yet, but the few midlaners that he had learned so far had already made Chi Shuo feel his unique playing style.
Shaoyang usually liked to smile and often played ^ _ ^ in matches. However, as Ye Shaoyang's partner, Chi Shuo knew very well that he was the calmest and sharpest midlaner that Chi Shuo had ever seen.
He wasn't just infuriating people and making the opponent's mentality explode.
He was also a sharp sword that could cut through clouds and mist.

At the same time, in the Fire-mark team's base.
The coaches and players were all very energetic and didn't feel sleepy at all.
Yan Yan had just finished playing a ranking game when he heard Coach Li call him from the side. "Yan, come over and take a look at the replay of this game."
Yan Yan walked over in confusion and stood behind Captain Zhou's computer. "What's wrong?"
Zhou Jiawen pointed to the names Sunshine and Moonlight on the screen and said, "The Sun and Moon master duo suddenly appeared in the international server. Previously, the newcomer of Team Mitchell was defeated by their duo. Today, I happened to meet them in the international server. They changed to playing Black and White Wolf Kings."
Yan Yan immediately leaned over with interest. "Black and White Wolf Kings? They haven't appeared for many years. "
Coach Li sighed. "Yes, that's why we're curious about their origins."
The replay began and the coach adjusted the playback speed to 0.5 times.
Zhou Jiawen had faced a duo of professional players at the bottom lane at that time. He had been suppressed by the archer's support. Therefore, he hadn't had much time to observe Black and White Wolf Kings' maneuvers. Now that the game was over and he was observing the whole game from a god's perspective, he realized that the tacit understanding between these two players was quite terrifying.
Coach Li said in surprise, "White Wolf King's maneuvers were very detailed in this wave of encirclement! Four wolf cubs surrounded from two directions. Nightmare, who was hiding in the grass, had nowhere to hide! "
Yan Yan was deep in thought. "The positioning of the two of them was like a pocket surrounding the opposing mid laner."
Zhou Jiawen said, "Moreover, White Wolf King's [Pack of Wolves Protection Master] was very timely. The moment the opposing ninja appeared, he pressed this skill and blocked a wave of critical hits."
Coach Li said, "The opposing ninja should be Fujita Naoya. There aren't many players who can block Fujita's Backstab critical hits, but in this game, White Wolf King blocked it twice in a row. Did you guys notice that from the beginning to the end, he had never been killed by a jungler? The only time he died was when the opposing mid laner teamed up and killed him in a 2v1. "
The training room fell into a brief silence.
Yan Yan quickly said, "From my jungler's perspective, this mid laner is very, very difficult to kill. His sense of smell is very sharp. It seems like he can always sense where the jungler is waiting for him. It feels like … he has a lot of experience in big competitions. He's often caught by the top international junglers and has formed a conditioned reflex. "
Why were rookies so easily killed? Because of their lack of experience in big competitions, junglers had all kinds of ways to ambush you. If you weren't careful, you would be caught and killed.
However, experienced old players could detect the danger through some details.
The sense of smell in the competition sounded like metaphysics, but at the end of the day, it was actually a subconscious conditioned reflex formed by rich experience in big competitions. For example, when the mid laner went to catch him, White Wolf King couldn't see the opposing jungler at all. However, because the opposing mid laner took a step forward, he decisively used Flash.
Zhou Jiawen frowned slightly. "This person's awareness is even scarier than if he used a cheat."
Coach Li had mixed feelings. He looked at Yan Yan. "What do you think of Black Wolf's jungler?"
Yan Yan said with certainty, "World-class." He pointed at the screen of the last team battle. "He knows the terrain of the jungle like it's his own backyard. Look, the few times Black Wolf jumped over the wall, he grasped the entry point very well. After killing the opponent, not only can he chase after them, but he can also retreat at any time."
Some junglers went to catch people with a "no return" strategy. If they killed the opponent, they would also die.
However, every time Moonlight went to catch someone, he would leave an escape route for himself. He could attack and retreat without leaving a trace. He could even take someone's head from thousands of miles away and escape unscathed!
This kind of thorn was the scariest. You didn't know where he would come from to kill you. After killing you, he could still leave. After a few seconds, he would appear again to kill your teammates.
The harvesting jungler killed four people in a team battle. This was enough to prove how accurate his timing was.
Zhou Jiawen thought. "So, the mid laner White Wolf King's operator is very much like an experienced veteran player? Jungler Black Wolf doesn't look like a newcomer? "
Coach Li scratched his head in confusion. "Two veteran players teaming up to play in the international server? Which team are they from? "
Zhou Jiawen and Yan Yan looked at each other.
Yan Yan said, "If we meet them in the competition, Captain Zhou, what do you think our chances of winning are?"
Zhou Jiawen was silent for a moment. He smiled and said, "I don't know."
He really didn't know. With such a combination of mid laners, tacit understanding, and explosive power, as long as they couldn't suppress them in the competition, the whole situation would collapse.
Zhou Jiawen was puzzled. "Are there such veteran players in Europe?"
***
Ye Shaoyang had been assassinated by various world-class junglers many times in his previous life, forming a sharp conditioned reflex. He did have a lot of experience in competitions. No wonder the Fire Mark team misjudged him as an experienced player.
The next day, he came to the cafeteria feeling refreshed. After having breakfast with Chi Shuo, the two went to the training room to turn on the computer.
It was not even 8 o 'clock yet. His and Chi Shuo's schedule was really not like esports players.
Today, they continued to practice the Black and White Wolf King combination. There were very few players above 20 stars in the international server. The probability of encountering professional players was greatly increased. The two of them had been winning for the past few days and were about to reach 20 stars.
At 9 o 'clock sharp, they obviously encountered professional players. The archer and support were in a double row. The two of them once again bypassed the support to kill the archer, killing the archer in the bottom lane three times in a row.
In the training room of a team in the European region, a young man was so angry that he cursed and sent the video to his captain.
In the early hours of the morning, Mitchell turned on the computer and suddenly received a video. In the video, Sunshine and Moonlight used the long-lost Black and White Wolf King combination to destroy the opposing bottom lane. This pair of bottom laners were from the TP team in the European region.
Mitchell: "???"
Why did it come back to him?!
He sent the video to Zhou Jiawen. "The European region said they don't know these two. Are they Koreans? "
Zhou Jiawen: "Kim Minjun sent the video to the professional players' group. No one admitted it."
Mitchell: "Then I'll send it to the World League group and ask."
The professional players' group in the World League of Gods was even scarier than the World League of Gods in the Chinese region. It was full of world-class players and captains of teams from various regions who had reached the World League. They usually chatted in broken English and could understand each other through an automatic translator.
There were also many coaches in the group who would add each other as friends in private and arrange cross-region training matches. For example, Tianheng was in the Chinese region. During the regular season, the players would be psychologically affected the next time they met a team from their region, regardless of whether they won or lost. However, if they were to invite teams from North America, Europe, and Korea to a training match, they would not be affected at all.
Mitchell sent three videos in a row.
In the first round, the rookies of their team met the Sun and Moon duo at the beginning. The two of them played a pair.
In the second round, Zhou Jiawen and Kim Minjun happened to be paired with the Sun and Moon duo. The two of them played the black and white wolf kings.
In the third round, the European team met the two of them. The black and white wolf kings of the two players were superb and defeated the bottom lane in 10 minutes.
Mitchell asked in the group, "Which region are they from?"
The professional players immediately became detectives and began to ask each other.
In the end, the European region came to a conclusion. "We don't have these two players in our region."
The Koreans: "We don't have them either."
Japan: "They shouldn't be from our country. Our players haven't woken up yet at 9 o 'clock."
Zhou Jiawen: "They're not from our country either. The earliest one to wake up here is at 10 o 'clock."
Fang Zhengqing, who saw the video, was speechless.
Are you sure, Little Zhou?
Why do I have a strange feeling?
There aren't many professional players in our country who wake up early in the morning.
There is one streamer though.
His name is Little White. Have you forgotten?
