Chapter 108 Chapter 108
The weather outside the stadium was gloomy and it seemed like it was going to rain.
Clouds were tilted over the huge arc glass dome, and a huge subtropical high pressure was hovering in the sky, and a storm was about to come.
"FKW was under a lot of pressure in the fifth game." Cen Jiangtao commented, "Shi Huai is still too green compared to Chi Shen. Even if he wins the early teamfight, he can easily be caught and broken in the later stage."
"The last game depends on the strength of the bottom line." Xi Yingzhuo adjusted his light golden glasses, "But-"
"If they still use the same idea as in the last game, they will definitely not be able to beat GXT."
[Boss Cen is fine, but Brother Xi's tone sounds a bit regretful]
[Anyone who has watched Chi Shen in the first three games will regret that FKW stopped here]
[This year is probably the last year]
In addition to ordinary spectators, there are also players sitting in the VIP room on the second floor.
Qin Yubai looked at the big screen in the center of the stage, and also wanted to see if FKW can win the eleventh league trophy.
In the second game, GXT first banned Magician, Witch, and Cat, while FKW banned Phantom, Spectre, and Arthur.
"FKW banned three ADs, and it seems that GXT's bottom lane really brought a lot of pressure to FKW." Cen Jiangtao commented.
"South was not in a good state today, but GXT also banned two mid laners. Everyone played very cautiously in the decisive game." Xi Yingzhuo looked worriedly at the boy in the position whose skin was almost transparent, so thin that the thin blood vessels on the side of his neck could be seen.
"GXT's Cat is interesting." Cen Jiangtao narrowed his eyes, "Witch restrains Mogar, Cat restrains bulky heroes, could it be that GXT wants to play Void lineup?"
The Void lineup is centered around Mogar the Obliterator and Void Worm. The feature of this lineup is high burst both at the beginning and the end, but the drawback is that Void Worm is too bulky and can be easily killed in the early stages, so it has never appeared in the playoffs.
"The Void lineup is too radical." Xi Yingzhuo disagreed with Cen Jiangtao's opinion, "GXT is already operational-oriented, and it is impossible for them to choose such a high-risk lineup in the fifth decisive game."
[Cane's style has always been to seek stability. He even gave up Cang Lang and chose Mech Lord in the S-League finals]
[The Void lineup is too easy to guess. Cane, who plays BP so well, would not choose it]
[Will it be Mogar and Xinghui? The Lions used this set in Xuanji and it was not bad]
After the first round of bans, it is the first round of picks. Both sides take turns to choose three heroes.
The first to choose a hero can get a strong hero of the version, but it is also easy to be targeted and expose the direction of the lineup. The second to choose a hero can counter, but it may also lose a strong hero and limit the lineup.
If the competition on the field is a bloody close combat, the competition in the BP is a bloodless sword fight. Sometimes the game is over when the BP is over.
The first pick is not obvious. They often choose the strong heroes of the version. GXT picked Mogar as expected, and FKW first chose the jungler Wild Claw.
"GXT, as the second blue team, grabbed Thorn Apostle. Thorn Apostle has a win rate of 62.1% in the playoffs, which is worthy of being a strong hero of the version." Xi Yingzhuo looked at the big screen and talked freely, but he stopped in the next second -
because the selected hero began to jump, and the avatars of different heroes kept popping up. Finally, when there were only three seconds left in the countdown, he changed to Void Worm!
[Fuck! Cane is really brave to make a selection. I don’t even dare to make such a selection in ranked games.] [
I will be scolded to death by my teammates if I make such a selection in ranked games.]
[The lineup is so extreme, what should I choose as a support? A hard support?]
Not only the audience, but also Xi Yingzhuo’s eyes were filled with deep astonishment, but he soon became calm.
GXT must have thought of a backup plan to be able to use a void lineup in the fifth game.
But what will this backup plan be?
It was FKW’s turn to select players. The analyst who used to stand behind the players disappeared, and was replaced by Chi Yu in a black team uniform.
The young man with long black hair had a bandage on his hand. Looking closely, his fingers were still trembling slightly, which was a sign of overuse of muscles. This god who controlled the game had already shown signs of degeneration.
But he still stood behind FKW.
He whispered something in the player's ear, and FKW chose the first hero.
——Wilder. Wilder
is a strong AD in this version. His W skill can mark enemies to increase the damage of normal attacks, and his ultimate skill Fatal Pursuit can gain attack and movement speed bonuses, restraining the clumsiness of the Void Worm.
But it was still not enough.
Xi Yingzhuo intuitively felt that the core of GXT's lineup was the support. If FKW could not lock the opponent's support, GXT would gain an unimaginable advantage.
Until the second round of picks, FKW's most critical mid-unit and GXT's most critical support position were not out.
The background music began to change in the second round of picks. It was no longer an intense and exciting drumbeat, but an ethereal female voice singing, like a medieval ghost floating above the venue.
"What do you think GXT's support will choose?" Cen Jiangtao asked him casually.
Xi Yingzhuo didn't want to be looked down upon by Cen Jiangtao, and racked his brains to think: "GXT can take the void lineup first, so they must not worry that FKW will snatch the support. This hero should not have appeared in the competition field, or Cane knows that FKW will not choose this hero."
People outside the game always see more clearly than those on the field. Countless heroes flashed through Xi Yingzhuo's mind. When he saw GXT take the Storm Rider on the fourth floor, he thought of it in a flash -
"Kalan!"
Kalan is a support who has hardly appeared in the field in the past two years. He has the strongest shield among supports. The reason why he didn't play is that his movement speed is too low.
If a shield runs slower than an AD, it will naturally be difficult to take on the responsibility of protecting the back row in a teamfight.
However, the playoff version increases the speed of the Shadow Step Boots, which can make up for the fatal flaw of Kalan's slow speed, and the Void lineup with Kalan's shield will show the sharpest fangs.
Cane, who stood behind the GXT team members, had yellowish curly hair and white skin, and looked younger than the players. When he chose Kalan, he showed a humble smile unique to Koreans.
[Damn! ]
[He is worthy of being a champion coach, domestic coaches should learn from him]
[Domestic coaches can only buy cigarettes and order takeout. The Korean BP is really amazing. The Lions in S3 were no worse than the Koreans, but they were defeated by BP]
Xi Yingzhuo had to admire Cane and felt sorry for FKW.
With Kalan joining the Void lineup, there is almost no weakness. The burst power is extremely strong in both the early and late stages. It would be fine if Kalan was banned in advance.
But there are no ifs in the game.
The red team's last pick has not yet ended. The sky above the glass dome is almost completely black. Lightning and thunder are flashing under the dark clouds. Under the thunder, Chi Yu's hair is blown up by the wind, slightly covering the very light tear mole under his right eye.
Others can't hear him talking, they can only see him staring at the screen calmly.
The female voice singing is at the most intense part, the orchestra is playing like crying, and the hero portraits on the big screen are constantly switching, like a melodious and heart-wrenching piano sound. Suddenly, the singing stopped, and the venue fell silent.
FKW selected the last mid unit.
——Phoenix.
The barrage was silent for a moment, and even Xi Yingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief.
"This lineup..." Xi Yingzhuo adjusted his words, "Phoenix Fire can indeed penetrate Kalan's shield, and Wild Claw can work in conjunction with the mid-bottom jungle. FKW should not have expected GXT to use the Void lineup-"
Cen Jiangtao on the side added: "Instead, they deliberately released the Void lineup."
At this time, the expression on GXT coach Cane's face was not very good, but he still tried to pat the player on the shoulder.
[This Phoenix hand makes my scalp numb]
[Chi Shen's coaching seems to be very strong]
[But the lineup GXT got is not bad, Phoenix relies a lot on early accumulation, can South do it today? ]
This is a question that everyone is thinking about.
This young and proud player showed amazing potential and strength at the beginning of the season. In a league where fans of 25-year-olds have yet to see a bright future, he is like a shining meteor. Will this meteor fall today?
Everyone can see that the boy's condition has worsened, but he still puts on his headphones and enters the game as usual.
Xiao Qiao doesn't know what happened. He only remembers that the captain said to pay more attention to the boy's condition. He asked worriedly before the game started.
"Do I need to apply for a suspension of the game?"
The pale-skinned boy shook his head.
Xiao Qiao could only suppress his worries and enter the game.
He couldn't comfort his teammates, so he could only play better and win a ticket to the world championship for the team.
"FKW's bottom lane is really strong." Cen Jiangtao's eyes revealed a trace of surprise.
FKW is not a team that focuses on the bottom lane, nor is it a comprehensive galactic battleship like GXT. The bottom lane is more often stable, but today's bottom lane not only stabilized GXT's offensive, but also surpassed it.
Lineup is a boring task that requires high concentration, but Charon in the GXT competition seat seemed to see the young AD at the other end of the competition seat through the long and complicated line of soldiers.
It was not only FKW's bottom lane that surprised him. The pale-lipped boy almost killed his opponent alone.
Everyone could see that South was holding on to the game. His thin body could not hold up his clothes, just like a paper kite floating in the sky being pulled by a thin line, and no one knew when the narrow line would break.
Heart is like flying catkins, breath is like a gossamer.
Although they have an advantage in BP, GXT is like a large meat grinder to FKW. They are pressed step by step in the early stage and in the late stage, so that they can't exert any strength.
In the most critical ancient dragon group, Shi Huai's Wild Claw is like a mad dog, but GXT's cooperation is too tight.
Kalan opens the group, Mogal enters the field and opens his ultimate, and then the Void Worm harvests the remaining blood. Even if the Wild Claw rushes head-on, the formation is not disordered. Be crazy and desperate, like an insurmountable cold warship.
Crushing flesh and blood inch by inch.
What followed was like a massacre. Pei Ji's Wild Ranger beat the worm to a bloody pulp and then strangled it to death. Yu Jin'an tried to protect the Wild Claw but was killed. Phoenix risked his half-dead body to break the strongest shield of the descent.
The knuckles of the boy's right hand holding the mouse were almost blue as death, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his pale face, as if the dangling thin line was finally about to break. Many spectators could no longer bear to watch.
But he still fell in the void.
The huge black void worm raised its head and spit out black flames. The Wild Claw fell down, and FKW lost its fighting power.
This dragon fight ended with GXT's victory. The Ancient Dragon not only provides a killing effect, but also can kill directly when the enemy's health is below a certain percentage. If the team kills the elemental dragon multiple times, it can further strengthen the dragon soul buff effect, which can be said to be the deciding factor.
FKW's road to the championship seems to have ended here.
They once created a miracle of winning all the elimination groups in the summer, defeating the hard-to-beat ASG, just like the KN team wearing worn-out uniforms, falling in front of the insurmountable Galaxy Battleship.
"Let us congratulate GXT for winning..." Xi Yingzhuo was stopped before he finished speaking.
Because the boy climbed up from the ashes.
"Impossible!" Xi Yingzhuo was so shocked that he almost stood up. Even if the Phoenix Golden Body was stacked up to ten layers, it could not withstand the three thousand points of black flame damage.
Cen Jiangtao looked deeply at the screen: "He stacked forty layers."
It was terrible for the Phoenix Golden Body to stack up to ten layers, but South stacked forty layers under the circumstances of strong support.
Cheng Boliang looked at the screen in disbelief. Didn't they say that South would lose control of his emotions when he saw his parents?
No one expected that the Phoenix could survive in the void, including GXT on the field. The Phoenix Golden Body unfolded in the darkness, like a Phoenix reborn in the ashes.
The next moment, a bright fire burned.
It was raining heavily outside the stadium, and the rain was hitting the glass dome one by one. In the game, there was a raging fire, and three thousand flames illuminated the audience.
The raging fire could be felt through the screen, burning so hot that it seemed to melt the skin. In the center of the fire was a dazzling phoenix.
The person controlling it was a shaky boy who was about to fall, but his weak body under the team uniform was still straight.
It was hard to tell what had changed, as if the boy standing next to Chi Yu had truly turned into a phoenix.
Even Xi Yingzhuo was moved, looking at the boy's thin body, he recited the commentary that was enshrined as a god.
"There may be things in the world that cannot be defeated, but there are always young people who are willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with gods with their mortal bodies."
They don't need to look up at the stars, because they are the stars in the sky.
