Chapter 196: Final Four

Yueying and Jingzhe were eliminated in the group stage, but they did not return to China immediately, but stayed in Seoul to play a training match with Tianhuan and Beimu. After the news spread to China, the black fans who had quarreled because of Jing Zhe and Yueying's poor grades were embarrassed to scold them again.

Every team wants to get good results, but there is only one champion. They are willing to stay as sparring partners, helping friends and improving themselves at the same time. Such courage and mind alone are worthy of admiration.

There are only 2 days before the 8-in-4 knockout.

When Tianhuan's coaching staff reviewed the game, they carefully analyzed the characteristics of the HER team.

As the runner-up team of S10 in the European Division, their comprehensive strength should not be underestimated. The strongest position is the top laner August, who is known as the number one top laner in Europe.

Next is the mid laner Klein. It is said that since Sean moved to Beimu, this Klein has rarely met any rivals in the European professional league and has single-handedly killed the mid laners of other teams many times.

The other three players of HER are quite satisfactory in the league. They are not weak, but they are not particularly strong either.

In other words, HER is a typical "upper and middle strong" team. It is not difficult for Tianhuan to play against such a team. After all, Tianhuan's middle lane is one of the strongest points, which is jokingly called by domestic netizens. Ye Shaoyang, who is the "big devil of the mid lane", is not afraid of any world-class mid laner.

Although Tianhuan's Lao Qin is weak, his jungler position is very strong, and he can drive the rhythm to help more gangs on the road.

Coach Lin concluded: "When playing HER, the strategy after the coaching team's analysis is to change lanes."

The five Tian Huan looked up in surprise, and saw Coach Lin said with a smile: "Remember when we played Yueying in the regular season? Yueying suddenly changed lanes and changed our rhythm. This time, we Borrowing Moon Shadow’s idea, he switched lanes directly at the start. Xiao Xing and Qu Jiang joined forces to push back the opposing team, limiting August’s development. In the middle, I believe Yang Yang can withstand Klein’s attack. Ye, leave it to Chi Shuo to play freely."

Everyone looked at each other and felt that this was feasible.

HER's strongest player is the top laner, no matter how strong he is, he can't be 1-on-2. Xiao Xing and Qu Jiang joined forces to push him back under the tower and limit his growth; and although Lao Qin was not a strong fighter, he chose a big tank, and Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shuo would help from time to time. It won't break down easily.

Chi Shuo is free to play with rhythm. At that time, according to the situation on the field, he chooses to grab the bottom lane or grab the top lane. Chi Shuo's ability to bring rhythm to the jungle is much higher than that of HER's jungler Schroeder.

In this way, Tian Huan can firmly grasp the initiative of the game.

Coach Lin continued: "As for the lineup, I don't think it's necessary to play a lineup that is too risky to play HER. We will play steadily. Yangyang chooses a mage with fast support, and Chi Shuo chooses an assassin with high explosive power. The linkage between the middle and the jungle brings the rhythm. When BP, I will try my best to target the top laner to help Lao Qin reduce the pressure.”

Chi Shuo said simply: "No problem."

Ye Shaoyang said: "The strategy of changing lanes, are we going to play a training match with Yueying?"

Coach Lin rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have already discussed with Yueying's coach. In the next two days, Jingzhe will play a training match with Beimu, and we will play with Yueying. After all, Yueying is in the group stage against HER. The team has played against each other and will give us some experience help.”

For two days, the players did not dare to relax.

That night, I asked all the Moon Shadow members to play a few training games, and the results were not bad.

Since Yueying played against HER in the group match of Group D, Lao Xu and Xie Weiyu also had some experience on how to deal with this team, and they shared it without hesitation.

For Lao Xu, this season is over. Instead of letting another country win the championship, it is better to let his good buddy Chi Shuo walk on the championship podium. Therefore, he really wants to help Chi Shuo. And Xie Weiyu has always regarded Ye Shaoyang as the best friend in the e-sports circle, and hopes that Yangyang will shine in the world competition.

How to play HER is better to win. After the training game, everyone discussed it privately for a long time.

Xu Zhuo said: "The HER team is from Germany, their tactical style is very rigorous, they won't play a team easily, but step by step to gain experience, upgrade, and then push the tower after completing the key equipment, as if the program has been set, the rhythm Very stable, they will always avoid the defense in the early stage, and it will be difficult to win them in the late stage.”

Xie Weiyu analyzed: "HER's bot lane shooters are not weak, but they are not at the international first-class level. I don't think Xiaoxing and shooters will suffer if they are 1v1."

Cheng Xing's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Brother Yu, do you think I can 1v1 with the opposite shooter?"

Xie Weiyu said: "Well, although Xiaoxing is a rookie, he dares to fight and fight. I always think that he is a HER shooter. He is a bit conservative in his thinking.

Xu Zhuo said: "Their jungler is a developmental jungler, and his ability to bring rhythm in the early stage is far less than that of Chi Shuo. I think that as long as the rhythm does not collapse, Chi Shuo has a good chance of winning in HER. By the way, their [Kung Fu] in the top lane. Master] and [Sword Will], these two heroes have a strong ability to cut the back row, and they will focus on marking at that time."

Qu Jiang said with a smile: "The task of marking top orders can be handed over to me. Xiaoxing should pay attention to his position and don't be cut to death by him." Cheng Xing nodded vigorously: "Got brother Qu!"

Xie Weiyu said: "Come on, wait for your good news."

There is really nothing to be afraid of when Tianhuan plays a strong top-laner and mid-laner team like HER. After all, they can win against a three-sided strong team like Beimu.

Time passed quickly, and the 8-in-4 knockout stage officially started.

This time the match was scheduled at 7 pm, plus it was a knockout match of BO5 and global BP, the audience was obviously much larger than the afternoon game, and the atmosphere was more lively.

To the Korean audience, it doesn't matter whether Europe wins or China wins. However, since they hate Tianhuan, the cheers for HER are significantly higher.

As for the reason why Korean audiences hate Tianhuan, it is obviously because media reporters in many countries believe that Tianhuan's Nakano strength is not weaker than Cui He and Park Yuanxi, and media reporters objectively analyzed the data of players from various countries, and finally came to the conclusion: Tianhuan There is a strong contender for the championship.

Want to steal the ATB championship? Of course, the Korean audience did not agree.

In the soundproof room, Tianhuan put on headphones collectively.

The first game begins. Since Tianhuan is the first in Group C and HER is the second in Group D, Tianhuan has priority to choose the side, Tianhuan chose blue in the first game, and directly lost [Kung Fu Master].

Yao Mu said: "In the World Championship, of course you don't need to be polite to your opponents. August's [Kung Fu Master] is very strong, and Tianhuan's ban method is no problem!"

HER banned Ye Shaoyang's [Abyss Master]. Tianhuan continued to Ban [Sword Will], targeting the top lane to the end; on the opposite side, Banning [Goddess of Destiny] and continued to fight with the middle lane.

Tianhuan directly took down the [Wind Spirit] shooter on the 1st floor to ensure the development of Cheng Xing.

The audience found that Tianhuan's BP idea was to grab the shooter to assist the top order in the P1 stage, and put the middle field at the end. So, in the P2 stage, HER continued to ban the mid laner, directly banning Ye Shaoyang's four mid laner thorns!

Yao Mu said: "Yangyang is VIP treatment! However, Yangyang's hero pool is too deep, and the opposite side can ban 4 spells in a row, so it's still not enough to ban."

Ye Shaoyang's thorns were banned, so he had no choice but to choose [Spirit Master] as his tool, Bao Chi Shuo. This is good, Chi Shuo released a bunch of wild cores, and took the super fast-paced [Sneak Thief] in the early stage.

Then, HER felt what was "the fear of being dominated by invisible assassins".

Chi Shuo's rhythm is ridiculously fast, and HER's jungler likes to devote himself to development at the beginning. As a result, Chi Shuo is just pinpointing the time for you to disable the buff, stealth away, and take away your buff with a punishment across the grass!

What's even more surprising is that Tian Huan actually changed lanes.

Xiaoxing and Qu Jiang went to the top lane together, facing August; Lao Qin went to the bottom lane alone, 1v2 against the opposite shooter and support.

Chi Shuo, who started with 3 buff, quickly grabbed the first wave of level 6, and joined Xiao Xing and Qu Jiangqiang to kill the top order squatting under the tower. Following closely, Chi Shuo continued to walk, and went with Ye Shaoyang to grab Xiaolong.

For the first time, HER's jungler felt the terrible rhythm collapse.

As Lao Xu said, this team is indeed not very good at taking the initiative to attack and opening groups, preferring to defend and counterattack and play operations slowly. However, Chi Shuo, who was rhythmically and luxuriously equipped, did not give the opponent a chance to counterattack at all.

10 minutes into the game, HER's jungler only got 2 buffs from the beginning to the end, and Chi Shuo always reversed the buffs, what a terrible word!

Domestic audiences are swiping the screen in the live broadcast room——

[Your wild area is my back garden? 】

[Just targeting the middle lane is useless, Tianhuan has two big demon kings]

[With the help of Yangyang, Team Chi was too comfortable in this game, and the jungler on the opposite side was too uncomfortable]

[To fight Tianhuan, either blow up a certain side road, or madly target the middle field]

[HER's strength is still not enough! 】

Chi Shuo also found out that the strength of the runners-up in Europe was not as strong as Beimu, the three-way strong.

HER's top and middle support is really fast, and it's not easy for him to counter the red buff; but the shooter in the bottom is probably more cautious, the support speed is always half a beat slower, and the support has no awareness of focusing on assisting the wild area. Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang jointly invaded, and they could easily reverse the blue buff.

It doesn't matter if one or two blue buffs are taken away, but the accumulation will add up. The economy of the opposing jungler will soon collapse, but Chi Shuo is fat and oily. Go, quickly bring the rhythm of the audience, HER quickly lost.

In the second game, HER's coach started frantically targeting Chi Shuo in the BP stage.

As a result, Ye Shaoyang's magic thorn was released.

The domestic live broadcast room burst into laughter——

[Ban jungler and mid laner, still useless]

[The rhythm of Yangyang's belt is also very strong, you can't put any of these two big devils! 】

Chi Shuo took a toolman to play the jungler and gave Ye Shaoyang the economy of the jungle area. Ye Shaoyang quickly developed to level 6. The two teamed up to kill the opposing mid laner, and then began to roam wildly with rhythm.

Wherever you go, wherever you go, all three paths of HER are taken away in a blink of an eye.

HER's coach is going bald!

The Tianhuan team is really scary, who should I ban?

Can we send all the two players, sun and moon, to the ban position?

In the third game, Tianhuan had already got the match point.

HER's jungler's mentality was a little broken, and he gritted his teeth: "I choose a jungler in this game, we will take the initiative to invade and grab their buff!"

As a result, in the third game, Tianhuan didn't play midfield linkage, nor did he play top and bottom lane changes.

Tianhuan started to operate.

The auxiliary selection [Time Traveler] accelerates, and the middle radio selection [Ocean Goddess] slows down, the classic speed difference lineup.

HER is a team that focuses on defense and operation, and is not good at actively playing team and rhythm. However, they found out in desperation... Tianhuan's team was even more disgusting when it started to operate!

Ye Shaoyang's [Ocean Goddess] released a large area of ​​decelerating waters, which made them unable to walk as if they were filled with lead; and Qujiang's [Time and Space Travelers] accelerated as a whole, Tianhuan could quickly guerrilla warfare, **** resources, bring Troop lines, push towers.

HER is always a few seconds slower than Tianhuan.

In the third game, there was almost no head-to-head confrontation between the two sides, and no head was broken.

But unknowingly, HER's top and bottom towers were pushed.

After pushing down the outer tower on the side road, Lao Qin and Chi Shuo quickly led the line to suppress the opponent's line.

Cheng Xing buried himself in the wild area to develop, and when Cheng Xing finished developing and made a three-piece suit, Tianhuan began to force the group in Dalong.

HER's shooter flash was only 0.1 second late, and it was given a second by Ye Shaoyang's deceleration and Chi Shuo's crit. As for HER's top order, he wanted to go around and go to Miao Cheng Xing, but Qu Jiang blocked the key damage. Cheng Xing flashed to the side to take a frantic position output, shot a sharp arrow, and won three kills in one breath!

—Virtory!

Looking at the golden words of victory on the screen, the domestic audience couldn't believe it.

[Fuck, is it 3:0? 】

[I guessed that I could win, but I didn't guess that I would win 3:0! 】

【Tianhuan is really awesome! 】

[The cooperation of the five of them in the world stage is really super tacit]

[Thank you Yueying for staying to share the experience and play the training match with Tianhuan. Today's tactics must have been privately trained and studied by the two teams! 】

[HER level is not very good, far inferior to Beimu, it is normal for Tianhuan to win HER]

[But winning 3:0 is indeed the suppression of strength! 】

When Chi Shuo took his teammates to HER's soundproof room to shake hands, HER's captain, August, gave Chi Shuo a hearty hug and said with a smile, "You guys are stronger than I thought."

Chi Shuo politely said, "Thank you."

Tianhuan has experienced the tempering of domestic competitions and is indeed getting stronger and stronger.

It's like the five gears have become tight and impeccable after constant running-in.

I would also like to thank those domestic opponents.

A variety of tactics have broadened Tianhuan's mind and accumulated a lot of practical experience.

For example, the lane change in the first game today was taught to them by Moon Shadow; the operation style of the third game was learned from the Ice Soul team and the Korean team.

Tianhuan has been constantly learning.

To advance to the semi-finals of the World Series is not a satisfactory result for them.

Before everyone left the big stage, they stood in the shadow of the backstage and looked back at the middle of the big stage - there was the S10 world championship trophy, the golden trophy, very delicate and beautiful.

Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shuo exchanged glances.

Take it home. This time, don't lose it again.
