After all, Gui Sirui and Liu Jingxu are veteran players with rich competition experience. From the moment Xie Mingzhe announced the cards, they noticed that the playing style of the Xie-Yu combination today was very different from before - Yu Ke assisted and Xie Mingzhe output. Moreover, every output card Xie Mingzhe brought could be kept in the later stages as the core, making the operation very difficult.
At first, they wanted to focus their fire on Pan Jinlian, but Yu Ke used the protective skills of Meng Po and Qin Guang Wang in succession, forcing Pan Jinlian to escape with only a sliver of blood. Gui Sirui had no choice but to change his target and said, "Kill Lin Chong first!"
Pan Jinlian is a long-range output card. As long as she hides behind her teammates, many skills will not be able to hit her.
But Lin Chong is a melee card, so you have to attack him at close range, then control him and kill him quickly with concentrated fire. Without Lin Chong, the harvesting card, Xie Mingzhe's output capacity will be greatly reduced, and it will naturally be much easier to defeat them one by one.
Gui Sirui's idea was correct. Liu Jingxu and he cooperated well. The moment he saw Lin Chong rushing over with the "Exile to Cangzhou" skill, Liu Jingxu immediately let the flower demon release the strong control skill "Psychedelic". Lin Chong was affected by the flower demon's control and fell into a hallucination that lasted for 5 seconds!
5 seconds is enough time for Liu Jingxu and Gui Sirui to team up and kill a controlled squishy output card.
More importantly, in order to save Pan Jinlian's life, Meng Po and Qin Guang Wang's single-target protection skills are now on cooldown. Unless Qin Guang Wang uses the Mirror Platform to counterattack, or Du Liniang uses group healing, it will be difficult for Lin Chong to survive the opponent's concentrated fire.
Yu Ke also knew this and felt a little flustered for a moment.
Should I use Du Liniang's ultimate to save Lin Chong? It feels a bit wasteful to use a group healing skill with a long cooldown time to save a card, but if I don't save him, Lin Chong will definitely die. It's really a dilemma whether to use the ultimate or not.
However, there was no room for hesitation on the field. Yu Ke gritted his teeth and made a decision - not to save him!
Because Gui Sirui and Liu Jingxu's hidden cards have not appeared, and these two still have a lot of follow-up output. If all the big moves are used up to save Lin Chong, Nirvana will fall into complete passivity and will most likely collapse if it is counter-controlled.
He thought of what Qin Xuan had told him - as an assistant, one must learn to make choices when it comes to rescue at critical moments.
——If you can't save all the cards, then save the card you think is the most important.
Before the game, Azhe repeatedly emphasized to him that the most important losing card in this game was not Pan Jinlian, Hua Rong or Lin Chong, but Yan Qing, who had the most complicated operation!
He had to save his skills to ensure Yan Qing's survival, so when Lin Chong was targeted, Yu Ke resisted the urge to use his ultimate move and instead chose to quickly adjust the positions of the cards, allowing Meng Po, Qin Guangwang, Wei Zheng, and Du Liniang to quickly retreat.
Lin Chong was isolated and helpless, and was soon killed by Gui and Liu.
In the commentary room, Wu Yue, who had come to her senses, said with some regret: "What a pity! Today was Lin Chong's first appearance in the league. As a result, he used his first skill 'Send to Cangzhou' to teleport over and just as he was about to attack the opponent, he was killed instantly by the opponent's counter-control before he could even use the follow-up skills. Gui Sirui's reaction was really too fast..."
Liu Chen also sighed: "Lin Chong's losing card hardly played any role. It's a pity for Xie Mingzhe!"
Su Yang had a different opinion, saying, "Not necessarily. Although Lin Chong died in battle, the hanged man that Pan Jinlian just dragged over won't live long either. Let's consider it a one-for-one trade."
Pan Jinlian had just pulled the "Hanged Ghost" over for Hua Rong to fight. Hua Rong's output was already very high. After crippling the Hanged Ghost, Pan Jinlian fed him a mouthful of poison. As a result, Lin Chong just died with his front foot, and the Hanged Ghost also died with his back foot. Pan Jinlian's skills were refreshed.
As the audience guessed, Pan Jinlian used the "Charm" skill again, and this time she pulled over the opponent's output card, the cat demon.
Hua Rong continued to attack the cat demon in front of him. Of course, the cat demon was not idle either. It suddenly transformed into a cat girl with a cat tail. The cat girl can use her tail to imprison the designated target in place and reduce the opponent's defense by 50%.
——This control skill almost sentenced Pan Jinlian to death.
Gui Sirui is indeed a first-rate player, he had already released the water ghost, and had been lurking in the dark waiting for an opportunity to strike. The moment Pan Jinlian on the opposite side forcibly pulled the cat demon away, the water ghost quickly followed, and after his teammates controlled Pan Jinlian, the water ghost appeared, and with a sudden critical strike, he killed the bleeding Pan Jinlian directly!
There were exclamations from the audience. First, they were amazed at Gui Sirui's quick reaction, and second, everyone was startled by the sudden emergence of a shapeless ice-blue ghost from the water.
Pan Jinlian was killed, which means that the combination of Pan Jinlian and Hua Rong's strategy of pulling one and killing one was cracked.
Su Yang said: "Xiao Gui's awareness is indeed very strong. He saw that Xie Mingzhe was going to use Pan Jinlian as a displacement control card in this game, and cooperate with Hua Rong to kill the opponent one by one, so he released the water ghost in advance, and after his teammates caught up with the control, he immediately killed Pan Jinlian first."
Wu Yue said: "The Water Ghost card is really flexible in the Water Battle map. Even the audience with the God's Perspective didn't find where the Water Ghost was lurking. I think this card will pose a great threat to Xiao Ke and A Zhe!"
The strongest point of the Water Ghost is that it becomes invisible when it encounters water. This is also a new card made by Gui Sirui in the later period. Xie Mingzhe has never seen it before.
I chose the water battle map today, originally intending to target Gui Sirui's powerful melee cards, but Gui Sirui took advantage of the situation instead, using the ambush and sudden attack of the water ghosts to catch Xie Mingzhe off guard.
After Pan Jinlian's death, Xie Mingzhe also realized that the opponent he faced was countless times stronger than the one in the group stage.
The tactics he formulated before the game might not work, but he was not nervous. Winning or losing today's game was not important anyway. The key was to challenge himself and see if he could flexibly operate these difficult cards under great pressure.
Xie Mingzhe said calmly: "No hurry, kill the water ghost first!"
After the cat demon transforms into a human-shaped "cat girl", it will change from an output card to a single control card. It will not only control Pan Jinlian and cooperate with the water ghost to launch a wave of attacks, but also exchange its own output and defense data.
Originally, the cat demon had an output of hundreds of thousands and a defense of tens of thousands, but now the cat girl has a defense of hundreds of thousands!
This is where Liu Jingxu's demon cards are difficult to play. It seems that his demon cards are very fragile and can be killed in a few seconds, but once they are focused, the demon cards will suddenly transform, and the attack and defense data will be swapped. Don't look at its low health, but the defense of hundreds of thousands is enough to give opponents a headache - switching from offense to defense, it is not so easy to kill the transformed demon card.
Xie Mingzhe gave up the plan to kill the cat demon and first targeted Gui Sirui's lurking water ghost.
Unknowingly, the accumulated water in Xia Pi City has reached a depth of 50cm, and all the cards in the scene have slowed down by 50%. At this time, the players can clearly notice that the movement speed of the cards has slowed down, but the water ghost is different. Its movement speed underwater will be increased, and once it dives into the water for more than 5 seconds, it will automatically enter the invisible state.
If the water ghost becomes invisible underwater, with Gui Sirui's operating skills, the elusive water ghost will constantly harass them, which will put Xie Mingzhe and Yu Ke completely on the defensive, and they will only be suppressed and beaten by their opponents.
You have to deal with it quickly before it becomes invisible - you only have 5 seconds.
Xie Mingzhe took a deep breath and said quickly: "Protect Yan Qing, let's go!"
Yu Ke understood and immediately controlled the auxiliary cards to follow.
At the same time, Xie Mingzhe summoned the first hidden card of the game.
When the hidden card is summoned, there will be a special battle reminder and light effect. As soon as this card came out, the audience stared at him, and Gui Sirui and Liu Jingxu also immediately became alert.
I thought it was another devastating control and harvesting hidden card, but I didn't expect that the hidden card Xie Mingzhe brought this time was actually a very simple functional card.
——The Speedy Dai Zong, the whole group speeds up!
Dai Zong only has one skill, so the acceleration lasts for a long time, but the cooldown time is very short, which makes him very flexible to use in large-scale team battles. However, in a two-player match, one side can only bring 10 cards. Wouldn't it be a waste to bring this functional card? And he was put in the hidden card, obviously not wanting the opponent to know in advance.
The audience was very curious about Xie Mingzhe's next move.
The next moment, everyone understood why Xie Mingzhe brought Dai Zong with him.
Because of Yan Qing!
Yan Qing is an extremely flexible output card. Today was his first time to appear on the professional league field. Xie Mingzhe did not summon Yan Qing after the game started until Dai Zong appeared on the field, then he summoned him at the same time.
Yan Qing, who was accelerated by the Speedy Speedster, was already moving very fast. He quickly caught up with Gui Sirui’s water ghost, who had not yet turned invisible, and used “Fade Sounds” to stack several musical note marks on the opponent. He then used the “Prodigal Son Returns” skill to teleport twice in a row, just passing by the water ghost’s position and stacking two more marks.
With a crisp "pop" sound, all the marks that Yan Qing had placed on the water ghost exploded, and the water ghost fell to the ground.
The audience looked at the big screen in disbelief. Just now, they only saw a figure flashing before their eyes and then flashing back quickly. They heard a few pleasant flute sounds in their ears. Then they looked more carefully and saw that the water ghost was killed in an instant?!
There were a lot of question marks in the live broadcast room, and the commentator also stared at the screen with wide eyes, but he still couldn't see clearly what Xie Mingzhe did at that moment. Wu Yue could only quickly ask the director for help: "Let's take a look at the slow-motion replay..."
A slow-motion replay of the scene just now appeared in the lower right corner of the screen.
Yan Qing first used the acceleration of "The Speedy Walker" to catch up with the water ghost who had not yet turned invisible, then activated skills 1 and 2 at the same time, moving back and forth in just 3 seconds, and quickly stacked 5 musical marks on the water ghost - the prodigal son returned, the marks exploded, and the already fragile water ghost was killed instantly!
After killing the water ghost, Yan Qing used his third skill "Return to the Mountains" to stay away from the battlefield, teleported back to the rear, and avoided all the opponent's skills that might hit him.
——Kill the enemy from thousands of miles away, and disappear instantly after the kill!
——A true assassin who “comes and goes without a trace”!
The audience was stunned, and the screen in the live broadcast room was filled with "6666". Fans were so excited that they wanted to cry: "Azhe is so awesome!" "I didn't even see this operation clearly!" "Can I say that I didn't even see the slow-motion replay clearly?" "In the chaotic situation, he stared at the water ghost and teleported over to kill it in seconds, and then teleported away. This card of Yan Qing is so handsome that it makes me cry!" "There is another male god, the cards made by Azhe are really more handsome than the last!"
Gui Sirui and Liu Jingxu looked at each other.
Killing a card in 3 seconds is something that many top players in the Professional League can do, not to mention Gui Sirui's Water Ghost. Because his skill design is too strong and his defense is very weak, it is normal for him to be killed in one set of seconds.
But the problem was that when the water ghost was retreating, there were many teammates around him to protect him, including a humanoid tiger monster that was about to use a taunting skill. However, Xie Mingzhe stared at the water ghost's position with sharp eyes, teleported over and killed him instantly, and even Gui Sirui didn't have time to react.
This operation was so fast that it was shocking. Gui Sirui couldn't help but think of the gold weapon card of Ling Jingtang, who was the fastest in the Professional League.
But Xie Mingzhe is not of this style, right?
Gui Sirui had always thought that Xie Mingzhe won by using strange tactics. But at this moment, he couldn't help but look at the young player in front of him with new eyes.
——Just 3 seconds of god-like operation, almost approaching the fastest operation of the entire league, Ling Jingtang, is Xie Mingzhe going to the sky? !
