Chapter 93: Tianheng's Strategy
Trap Hunter was also a sewer hero. He rarely used it because his skill mechanism was very special. He could create hidden traps on the ground. Opponents who walked into the trap would be grounded for 2.5 seconds. Although the crowd-control time was long, it was not instantaneous. One had to predict the opponent's movements in advance to place the trap.
Moreover, this hero was very difficult to coordinate with his teammates.
It was possible that his teammates wanted to kill A, but the trap trapped B instead.
There was no damage in the early stages, and there was still no damage in the later stages. He was purely a "control-type tool."
Why did Tianheng choose him today? What kind of new playstyle did they have?
The audience was puzzled but also full of anticipation.
The two teams' lineups were quickly decided.
Tianheng's top laner was still Black Dragon Knight, jungler Trap Hunter, mid laner Destroyer Mage, and the bottom laner duo was support Seraph and archer Machine Gun Hunter.
Team CYC's lineup was more comprehensive. Their top laner was Blade Edge Will, who was stronger at killing people. Their jungler was Ice Dragon, and their mid laner was Frost Goddess. Their bottom laner was the common combination of Forest Messenger and Holy Archer.
The two commentators said, "Tianheng's lineup is very novel. We haven't seen it in previous games. CYC's lineup is easier to understand. It's a classic Ice Team. The jungler Ice Dragon can freeze one person, and the mid laner Frost Goddess can freeze an area. If the two heroes seamlessly control the opponent, they can freeze the opponent for up to four seconds! "
"So in this game, Lieyang and Fanxing, the two main positions, have shared skills with purification to dispel crowd-control. Let's look forward to the first game! "
The live broadcast cut to the game, and the game officially began.
One minute and thirty seconds ago, both teams were playing conservatively and did not break out into a level one team battle.
In the first round of buffs, CYC actually went to counter the red buffs. They had clearly studied Tianheng's game and found that Chi Shuo had killed the red buffs more often this season. If he went to counter the red buffs, he was more likely to encounter the weak Trap Hunter. As long as they killed Chi Shuo, his tool would not be able to carry the rhythm.
But in this game, Tianheng had to fight the blue buffs first, and the two teams coincidentally missed each other.
Qujiang noticed that the other side was invading and drew a symbol on the map. "The other side is turning red."
Chi Shuo said decisively, "Let him go. I'll steal from them."
He immediately abandoned the blue buff and went around the river to steal the red buff. When he returned to his own blue zone, he destroyed the blue buff and called out to Ye Shaoyang, "Shaoyang, take the blue buff."
Ye Shaoyang used his Q skill to easily deplete the mana.
The bullet screen of the livestream was flooded with comments — —
Captain Chi gave in to Blue? Basic operation.
This season, all the blue buffs were from Yangyang. Had Captain Chi not received any blue buffs?
Sigh, looks like Tianheng has completely abandoned the wild core lineup in order to groom a new mid laner.
For the past few matches, Chi Shuo had been playing as a tool. Netizens were wondering if Tianheng had given up on Wild Core.
But in reality, Tianheng had only hidden many more powerful lineups for Group S.
After Ye Shaoyang obtained the blue buff, it was very comfortable to clear the troops.
After clearing the troops, he went to the top lane to support Old Qin and also to freeload the troops. This was also agreed upon in advance.
Because Trap Hunter's damage output was too weak in the early stages, Destroyer Mage could not insta-kill anyone. The first minion was directly released. Chi Shuo also rushed to the top lane and pushed the enemy back under the tower, chipping away a little of the defense tower's HP.
The two commentators could not help but say, "Tianheng is playing a bit passive in this round! They directly released the minion in the first wave. It looks like they also know that Trap Hunter is too weak in team fights. They can't beat the enemy at all. "
"CYC took the bottom lane and Tianheng took the top lane. Is this what they mean by avoiding the battle in the early stages?"
"Avoiding the battle is not what CYC wants to see. Because CYC's double ice system is very strong in team fights. They want to team fight with you in the early stages. Freeze one and kill one! "
"They forcefully pushed the bottom lane … Beautiful, Tianheng's archer is frozen!"
"The archer has been cleansed! Fanxing's reaction was very fast. The moment he was frozen, he immediately dispelled the crowd control and escaped! However, the support was killed by the enemy tower. "
"CYC's archer got a kill!"
The two commentators were excited, and even the live audience applauded excitedly.
As a veteran team, CYC also had some fans. Their strategy of teaming up to attack the minion and pushing down the bottom lane tower was quite effective. Not only did they take down the minion, but they also killed Qujiang in a 4v2 at the bottom lane.
Originally, they wanted to kill Cheng Xing, but Cheng Xing's reaction was too fast. The moment he was frozen, he was cleansed and escaped. Qujiang took the initiative to cover the rear to help Cheng Xing. In the end, he was killed by CYC.
Tianheng continued to avoid the battle until Chi Shuo finally reached level 6 and learned the AoE Trap skill. Ye Shaoyang also made the first strong magic equipment.
Tianheng began to push the middle lane.
CYC was eager to fight a team fight head-on. The five of them also began to quickly gather in the middle lane.
At this time, CYC's economy was leading by 2000, which was a small advantage.
However, Ye Shaoyang's economy was the highest in the game. He took a lot of jungle resources, and Old Qin also gave him some minions. The second highest economy was CYC's archer. He took down 1 HP, and with his stable development, his equipment was not much different from Ye Shaoyang's. However, in the early game, the mage's damage was definitely higher than the archer's. This was because if the archer's attack speed was not up, the mage's attack speed would be slow.
They were finally going to fight. The two commentators immediately became excited. "Let's watch the team battle between the two sides! CYC will attack first. They only have one target — Tianheng Lieyang! "
CYC's thought process was very clear. "Kill the enemy's mid laner first!"
Tianheng's mid laner was too annoying. This was the consensus of all the coaches in Group B.
CYC's jungler threw a freeze over. Frost Goddess followed up with W's freeze.
Ye Shaoyang instantly activated Cleanse!
Cleanse could remove crowd-control and make himself immune to crowd-control for the next 1.5 seconds.
The timing of this skill was not right. It was very likely that the opponent would freeze you after you used Cleanse, or the opponent would freeze you and you would not be able to use the skill.
Ye Shaoyang's reaction was very fast.
Almost as soon as the enemy jungler attacked, he used the skill in advance. Therefore, the enemy jungler's crowd-control was not able to control him. Frost Goddess wanted to control him again, but he cleverly avoided it with a Snake Move.
The commentator said, "Beautiful! Lieyang's movement is too agile. He avoided the enemy's key crowd-control! "
CYC's double ice crowd-control missed, and Tianheng immediately counterattacked!
Old Qin's Black Dragon Knight jumped into the crowd and used Taunt, dragging the enemy's front row to the ground. Then, Qu Jiang's Blazing Angel flew over.
Blazing Angel's support could use the big move "Angel's Heart" to carry the enemy to a designated position. However, after being carried over, the enemy could not be controlled, and the enemy could immediately escape. Therefore, this support was usually paired with a teammate.
Next, the netizens saw a miraculous scene.
Qujiang found the CYC archer hiding in the distance and used a big move to carry him over. He carried the archer to the trap that Chi Shuo had set up in advance, and the archer was instantly frozen and could not move.
Immediately after, the Destroyer Sorcerer used six balls of black fog — Destroyer Judgment!

The CYC archer who was carried over and killed: "…"
The audience in the live stream: "…"
This trick was too dirty!
Wasn't the Holy Spirit Archer standing very far away? Why couldn't we hit you?
The support would carry you over and carry you to the jungler's trap to kill you instantly.
Tianheng's three-man disaster team began to perform again.
Hahaha, if I were the enemy's archer, I would faint from anger!
F * ck, you hid so far away. You couldn't reach me, so you carried me over to kill me?!
I finally know the use of Trap Hunters. They were punished to stand so that the enemy could not move. It was convenient for the mid laner to slaughter them ^ _ ^
CYC's captain was speechless.
The team battle had just begun, and the archer was already dead. How were they going to fight?
He could only say speechlessly, "Retreat, retreat, retreat!"
This was a 5v5 team in the middle lane. Because the archer was carried over and killed, CYC had no choice but to retreat.
Did you think that was the end?
Tianheng's performance had only just begun!
After killing the archer, Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang began to invade the enemy's jungle.
Although the Trap Hunter did not have high damage, the control duration was very long, especially in a jungle like this. It was very convenient for him to perform. There were many obstacles in the jungle and the roads were narrow. If he placed a few traps on the road, he would definitely be able to control them.
CYC's jungler was just about to run over to use the blue buff when he suddenly stopped.
Not good!
By the time he realized that something was wrong, it was already too late.
A hidden trap under his feet froze him in place.
Immediately after, six balls of black fog flew over from the distant wall and attacked his chest!

CYC's jungler wanted to vomit blood. "How could that be?!"
The trap was hidden. He could not see it at all. He also did not know when Chi Shuo had set up the trap in the jungle. Ye Shaoyang had been hiding nearby. When he saw that he had been trapped, he immediately made a move to kill him.
Who said that Trap Hunters and their teammates did not cooperate well?
Look at the cooperation between Shuo and Lieyang. It was as if their brainwaves were in sync!
After CYC's jungler revived, he immediately said, "Support, go to the red buff jungle and check for traps!"
Since Chi Shuo had set up traps in the blue buff jungle, there should be traps in the red buff jungle as well, right? That was what everyone thought. Thus, the support ran to the jungle and personally stepped on the traps. After all, the support had thick skin and would not die easily if he stepped on the traps.
The result of the support's departure was that the archer in the bottom lane was temporarily left alone.
CYC's archer carefully crouched under the tower to finish off the creeps. He planned to go home after clearing this wave of creeps.
However, Qujiang suddenly jumped over the tower and flashed under the tower from a very long distance away. He carried the archer out and placed him on the trap that Chi Shuo had set up in advance. Ye Shaoyang easily took the fragile archer's head with a big move.

CYC's archer was about to break down. "They're so annoying!"
Captain: "…"
So, where was the trap?
From the spectators' perspective, they could see that Chi Shuo's trap was actually following Ye Shaoyang's movements. When Ye Shaoyang went to support the bottom lane, he would go to the bottom lane to set up the trap. Because the trap only lasted for 30 seconds, it was impossible to set it up randomly in the canyon. If he set it up where Ye Shaoyang went to catch people, he would gain the most benefits.
The two commentators didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Can Tianheng's lineup be called a 'punishment system'?"
"The trap immobilizes the player for two seconds. The Destroyer's big move will definitely hit!"
"Stand still and let the mid laner kill you?"
"Ahem, it doesn't matter if you stand far away. Let my support carry you over as punishment."
The netizens: "…"
The furthest I've ever gone is Tianheng's strategy.
Tianheng has changed drastically this season. It's such a weird lineup that it's hilarious.
If I were the archer on the other side, I would have shut myself up. It's useless no matter how far I hide. I'll be carried over by the support as punishment.
Don't come over ~
CYC was fully prepared for this round, but …
They didn't expect Tianheng's strategy to be so weird!
Since the mid laner, the Destroyer, had no crowd control, the CYC archer's skill was [Flash]. In the end, Qujiang's support rushed over and carried him away. He didn't have time to use [Flash] before he was punished and lost his life.
CYC's archer started to doubt his life.
The number of times he was punished for skipping class in school was less than the number of times he was punished by the Trap Hunter today.
The key was the dragon team. CYC's archer saw Qujiang's Seraph and was so scared that he jumped over the wall to save his life. However, this time, Qujiang's target wasn't the archer — it was the opposing mid laner.
The Frost Goddess was about to release her skill when she was caught off guard and was punished.
Six balls of black fog hit instantly, and the Frost Goddess was gone.
The mage was instantly killed. How could the dual ice system fight? CYC had no choice but to let go of the dragon. In the end, they only managed to drag on for 20 minutes before Tianheng destroyed the crystal with the dragon's buff.
The commentator was all smiles. "Congratulations to Tianheng Squad for winning the first round!"
"This' penalty standing style 'is really an eye-opener! The Trap Hunter hero was probably underestimated by the major teams. Together with the support with strong displacement and the mid laner with high explosive power, they can make a very scary combo! "
"The MVP of this round is still Tianheng Lieyang! The team's damage output is 45%, and the big move's hit rate is almost 100%. The Terminator Sorcerer took 10 kills! "
Ye Shaoyang's skill hit rate as a Terminator Sorcerer was already very high. Moreover, with today's lineup, if the opposing team couldn't move, it would be like hitting a wooden dummy.
If he could even hit a wooden dummy, he might as well delete his account and stop playing.
A 100% skill hit rate sounded scary, but it was actually with the help of Chi Shuo and Qujiang. Chi Shuo had a very good view of the overall situation. He could predict the opponent's movements and set up traps in advance. Qujiang's capture was also very immoral. Every time, he would bring back a squishy or low-health player for Ye Shaoyang to kill.
Ye Shaoyang took off his headphones and smiled as he gave his teammate a thumbs up.
The essence of Tianheng's lineup could be summed up as —
Stand still and don't move!
Okay, you're dead.
This match's "punishment style" and the illusionist's "rapid guerrilla warfare" in the previous match made Tianheng's "Scourge Trio" famous. The coaches of Team B had a headache.
Playing against Tianheng was a form of mental torture!
