Chapter 100: head to head

On April 3, the entire Tianhuan team came to Binghe City ahead of schedule.

The first game of Group B was also arranged at the Glacier Arena. It was still winter, and the whole city was full of crystal clear ice sculptures, and there was a heavy snowfall on the day of the game.

It is now April, the spring flowers are blooming, and the green trees on the streets have sprung up.

Cheng Xing excitedly shoots videos every time he goes out to participate in competitions. Ye Shaoyang has no interest in admiring the scenery outside the window and is sleepy in the car.

Until the car drove to the door of the hotel, Chi Shuo whispered to him in his ear: "Arrived, wake up."

Ye Shaoyang rubbed his eyes and woke up in a daze. Chi Shuo picked up the backpack for him from the luggage rack and put it on his shoulder. Ye Shaoyang stood up and got off with Team Chi.

They usually only stay in the local area for 2 to 3 days when they go out to play games, and their luggage is very compact. They only bring a change of clothes, pajamas and toiletries, and this time they also brought a new keyboard and mouse.

Ye Shaoyang was too lazy to carry the suitcase, so he always brought a backpack to pack things.

Chi Shuo often took the initiative to help him with his luggage. Ye Shaoyang also helped his teammates with things when he was the captain. He didn't think much about the "help" of Team Chi.

Everyone came to the hotel lobby and was following the team leader to check in when they heard a hearty laughter: "Chi Shuo, what a coincidence, you just arrived?"

It is Xu Zhuo, the captain of the Moon Shadow team.

Chi Shuo turned back and saw that the Yueying team also came over with their luggage.

Xu Zhuo walked at the forefront, walked quickly to Chi Shuo, and hugged Chi Shuo.

The two captains are old friends, and the other team members are not familiar with each other, so they greet each other politely.

Ye Shaoyang set his eyes on Xie Weiyu, who happened to be looking at him. The two looked at each other, Xie Weiyu smiled at Ye Shaoyang, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand: "Hello, Lieyang."

Ye Shaoyang shook hands with him: "Hello."

This was the first time Ye Shaoyang saw Xie Weiyu up close. Xie Weiyu is a Beta boy. In fact, he looks much better than the publicity photos. His facial features are relatively gentle, he feels very polite, and his personality seems to be introverted. behind them.

Yaoguang Club gave up on him and turned to newcomers, probably thinking that such players are not easy to become popular?

He would be nervous when he stood in the interview booth, and reporters would only answer questions when they asked: um, yes, that's right...

But in fact, there are quite a lot of introverted otakus like Xie Weiyu in the e-sports circle.

Xu Zhuo asked, "What's your lineup for tomorrow's game? Tell me in advance, I'll give you a ban."

Chi Shuo said: "You can continue to ban me as a jungler."

Xu Zhuo laughed and said, "Guess who is the hero our coach wants to ban the most?"

Chi Shuo wondered, "Who is it?"

Xu Zhuo glanced at Ye Shaoyang and said, "Tianhuan-Lieyang, just send your family's single to the Ban position, hahaha."

Ye Shaoyang: "..."

This Xu team has some big nerves.

But it can also be seen that he has a really good relationship with Chi Shuo, and he can joke without any scruples before the game.

The team leaders on both sides quickly completed the check-in procedures, and before everyone had time to go upstairs, they saw a few familiar people also appearing at the door of the hotel.

It was Fang Zhengqing and Xie Yuan of Jingzhe team.

Xu Zhuo greeted: "Old Fang, you are here too!"

Fang Zhengqing wore a pair of sunglasses and walked with wind, like a big star.

With a smile on his face, Xie Yuan came over to greet Xu Zhuo and Chi Shuo, and said, "Our Jing Zhe game this week is also scheduled at the Binghe E-sports Center, the next game after your competition."

Fang Zhengqing took off his sunglasses and said while yawning, "You guys start at 7 o'clock in the evening, right? Finish the game at a little speed, don't drag it into a bladder game."

In the second stage of the league, 3 games are scheduled every day on Saturday and Sunday, at 3 pm, 7 pm and 9 pm.

The regular season is a BO3 format. If it is 2:0, it will end in 2 rounds. If the first 1:1 is tied, the third round of the tiebreaker will be added. Under normal circumstances, one round is played in about half an hour, and 3 rounds take an hour and a half. The game at 7 o'clock will end before 9 o'clock. Fang Zhengqing and the others will play the next match until 11 pm.

However, in this kind of continuous competition, sometimes there will be accidents. If Tianhuan and Yueying are too close, they may not finish in 2 hours, and Jingzhe's next game will be delayed...

Xu Zhuo lowered his voice: "If I remember correctly, Jing Zhe's opponent this week is Yao Guang?"

Fang Zhengqing raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to say?"

Xu Zhuo joked: "Then don't lose. If you lose, you will be hacked and searched."

Fang Zhengqing held up his glasses secretly and said, "Do you think it is possible for us to lose?"

Ye Shaoyang was not far from the two and happened to hear their conversation.

This year, Yaoguang Club's painting style is clear and strange, secretly playing tricks, buying water army Hei Xie Weiyu and Ye Shaoyang, everyone is well aware of this.

Chi Shuo looked at Ye Shaoyang and said, "Let's go."

Xu Zhuo shouted from the side: "I'm leaving in a hurry, don't talk a few more words?"

Chi Shuo said lightly, "Talk on the field."

Xu Zhuo said, "Then go back and wash your neck, and wait for me to take your head!"

Lao Xu has a bold personality and always likes to joke. Chi Shuo didn't mind either, he waved at him, and took the team members to the hotel to check in first.

Ye Shaoyang's room was arranged opposite Chi Shuo's door, which was a single room.

Chi Shuo handed him the backpack on his shoulders and said warmly, "Go back and have a good rest."

Ye Shaoyang took the backpack and said casually, "The match between Jingzhe and Yaoguang in Group S is arranged behind us. Can we stay at the scene and watch it?"

Chi Shuo asked, "Do you want to see it?"

Ye Shaoyang: "Well, Yaoguang's new shooter is not bad. I want to see if he can withstand the pressure when he is on the line with Jing Zhe."

Chi Shuo thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll talk to the team leader and coach. After the game, we'll stay in the backstage and go back to the hotel after watching the Jingzhe game."

It was easier for the coach to agree if Chi Shuo came forward and said, Ye Shaoyang smiled and said, "Thank you, Team Chi."

Chi Shuo raised his lips: "No thanks. I want to watch this game too. Go back to your room to rest and go to bed earlier."

Ye Shaoyang turned around and opened the door: "Good night, Team Chi."

The next day, everyone slept collectively until noon. After recuperating, they went to the conference room of the hotel to connect their laptops, and played the rankings casually to maintain their feel and state.

After dinner, they walked to the nearby Glacier Gaming Center.

The scene was full of people, and the seats were full.

Ye Shaoyang still remembered that when he first came to this venue, the attendance rate of the audience was only about 50%. Today, it was actually full, and there were as many banners and posters of various colors as the scene of a star concert.

The popularity of the teams in today's game is very high, especially the two games in the evening. Tianhuan, Yueying, Jingzhe, and Yaoguang were all the top eight players last season. No wonder the scene was so lively.

Ye Shaoyang followed his teammates to the backstage preparation room.

Soon, two familiar official commentators appeared on the big screen.

"Friends from the audience, this is the Glacier E-sports Center, welcome to the official Shenzhan professional league, the second round of the tenth regular season and the first week of the game! There will be two games here tonight at 7 pm , Group A Tianhuan vs Yueying, at 9pm, Group S Jingzhe vs Yaoguang!"

"The players from both sides of the first game are ready, let's welcome the players with warm applause!"

The 5 members of the Yueying team came to the stage first and walked into the soundproof room, followed by the 5 members of Tianhuan.

Fans soon discovered that the keyboards in their hands were changed, Lao Qin was blue, the jungler and the middle lane were black and white, and the bottom lane was bright red.

The barrage area immediately refreshed the screen—

[Isn't the color of the fancy keyboard not unified? 】

[It should be the father of the gold master, the keyboard is different from the previous one]

[It's the Yinlong-77 model, I just bought the black one from the pool team, and it feels good in the hand]

[Melancholy blue in the top lane, black and white in the middle and wild, and bells and whistles in the bottom lane? 】

[Hahaha, Tianhuan's sand sculpture family name and colorful keyboard really amused me]

The fans in the live broadcast room were booing and teasing, but Tianhuan 5 people looked calm and connected the newly brought peripherals to the computer. Then, the audience found that the keyboards of Qu Jiang and Cheng Xing were lit up with colorful lights.

Everyone: "…"

Blind eyes!

In order not to affect the teammates around them, they consciously turned off the light effect.

The equipment began to be debugged in the soundproof room, and the commentator quickly introduced the team members from both sides.

In the second round of the regular season, when each player is introduced, some basic data will appear on the big screen, similar to the "player information card", which includes KDA score; kills; MVP times; win percentage; hero pool.

When it was the turn of Tianhuan's midfielder, Ye Shaoyang, the data in this table attracted a burst of screams from the scene.

"Tianhuan Lieyang, a rookie who debuted in the S10 season, his data panel is really beautiful!"

"Yes, the average KDA score is more than 8 points per game; 68 kills; the number of MVP wins is 9 times, currently ranking first; the winning rate is 100%, of course, Tianhuan has not lost a game so far, and five players have a winning rate It's all 100%. However, Lieyang's hero pool is very deep, there are abyss masters, illusionists, frost goddesses, ocean goddesses, flower demons..."

"He seems to change heroes every game? I wonder what hero he will take today?"

The players were introduced in turn, and the equipment in the soundproof room was debugged.

The referee raised his hand to the director, and the two commentators said excitedly: "Both sides are ready, let's enter the first round of BP!"

In the first round of BP, Tianhuan's blue side will be banned first.

Coach Lin held the notebook and said while sketching: "Ban off the Shield of Glory."

Qin Yizhu, who was sitting in front of the first computer, did the same.

When it was Yueying's turn, everyone thought that Yueying wanted to ban the middle lane or the jungler, but what was surprising was that Yueying's first ban was actually given to the top lane, and he directly banned Lao Qin's most commonly used [Black Dragon Knight].

Sure enough, they are going to play around the top?

Tianhuan's second Ban continued to ban strong team support [Doomhammer], while Moon Shadow lost [Paladin].

Paladins can go on the road, be a support, or let Chi Shuo take it to the jungle and be a tool to protect his teammates. This Ban position broke Tianhuan's many systems of protecting the core, but in this way...

The mid laner and jungler are all released!

The commentator was surprised and said: "Yueying is also really dare to release all the middle and wild cores!"

"They should have special tactical arrangements? The first stage of BP is only for the top lane. Lao Qin may become their priority to break through."

"Yes. After all, Team Xu's top laner is really strong. It seems that this game, Yueying is going to focus on the top lane."

In the first stage, 2 Bans will be dropped and 3 will be selected each. Which position to choose also requires a game between the coaches of both sides. Because if you don't choose in the first stage, the second stage may be targeted by the opponent.

Lin Feng thought for a while and said, "Take the top and bottom lanes first, and Nakano last."

He is very confident in Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang's hero pool, even if they continue to Ban Zhongjun in the second stage, they don't need to worry. But if he doesn't take it on the road, Lao Qin may be targeted to death.

Tianhuan selected the top order [Man of Steel] on the first floor.

This is also a hero that Lao Qin is familiar with. He has high defense and can resist beatings, at least he won't be killed alone.

When it was Moon Shadow's turn, they directly locked the [Machine Gun Hunter] [Mechanical Expert] bot-tower combination.

Tian Huan followed by locking the [Forest Messenger] [Holy Spirit Archer] bot lane development combination, Moon Shadow's third choice, locking the top single hero [Kung Fu Master].

"Master of Kung Fu!" The commentator said excitedly, "This is also one of the famous heroes of Team Xu. He has a strong ability to lead the line, many displacement skills, and the ultimate move can automatically restore blood. It is a very difficult hero to kill."

"Both sides left the mid laner and the jungler to enter the P2 stage. Let's see how the coaches on both sides respond."

In the first stage, both sides tacitly chose the top and bottom lanes, and neither midfielder chose.

Then the BP in the second stage will definitely target the mid laner and the jungler like crazy.

Tianhuan Ban dropped [Frost Goddess] and [Holy Spirit Mage], two mid laners who could play as a tool player.

Moon Shadow Banned [Sneak Rogue] [Abyss Master] as a jungler and a mid laner.

Tianhuan quickly locked the hero—

The jungler [Charming Monster] is locked on the 4th floor, and the mid laner [Nightmare] is locked on the 5th floor.

The two commentators looked at each other excitedly: "Nakano linkage combination?!"

"That's right, this is a mid-jungle combo that has been popular for a while in the S6 season. The mid-single and the jungle double-assassins are a bit brittle, but they are very, very fierce!"

"Is this the rhythm of breaking the opponent in the early stage?"

Netizens in the live broadcast room were also excited.

[Fuck, the assassin from Team Chi appeared, and he finally stopped playing tool man! [tears.jpg]]

[These two heroes have been cut, not as strong as S6, but they can still be taken out if they cooperate with each other.]

【Nakano linkage! I have long said that Tianhuan hasn't come up with the most powerful system in Group B yet, so it's coming! 】

Moon Shadow thought for a while, and chose the [Fighter] tool player as a jungler, and the [Storm Goddess] tool player as a mid laner.

The lineup of both sides has been finalized.

On Tianhuan's side, [Charming Demon] [Nightmare] has a rhythm in the middle and jungle, and adds blood in the bottom lane + late-stage shooter, and resists pressure in the top lane.

Moon Shadow is [Kung Fu Master] leading the line in the top lane, controlling the tool player in the middle lane and jungler, and pushing towers in the bottom lane.

One side has to fight with you, and the other side has to push the tower quickly.

The competition in Group A, the contest between the two teams from the BP stage, was full of gunpowder.
