The referee lost the first game very suddenly. He had already established an advantage. Who could have expected Nirvana's sudden change of style at the last moment?
Changing from "slow-attack consumption flow" to "explosive wave flow" is like two people eating peanuts together, one for each of you, chatting happily while eating, but the other person suddenly picks up the plate and swallows up the remaining peanuts in one gulp? !
How could the person sitting opposite you not be shocked?
Dou E, Huang Yueying, and Sun Erniang, three female character cards of different styles were suddenly cleared out. Shan Lan was still confused at the moment the game ended. Nirvana changed his face faster than turning the pages of a book!
The fans of the referee were very unwilling to accept the decision and were even more angry with Xie Mingzhe. They wished they could stuff a mouthful of human meat buns into Xie Mingzhe's mouth and choke him to death.
In the live broadcast room, netizens expressed their opinions one after another——
"Cheetahs can eat people, so aren't human meat buns a delicacy for them?" "Rabbits and hamsters are herbivores, so it's understandable that they were killed by being smashed to death, but why was a cheetah killed by a meat bun?" "The most tragic cheetah in history died from a meat bun, which is a shame for the beast world!" "Aren't you surprised why Xie Mingzhe developed this skill? Has he eaten a bun filled with human meat?"
"So Xie Mingzhe is such a pervert!"
Tang Muzhou took out his laptop to check the comments in the live broadcast room in the backstage. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw this - the card skills that Azhe made were too weird, so in the minds of netizens, Xie Mingzhe had become a devil.
Pei Jingshan looked at Tang Muzhou, hesitant to speak. Tang Muzhou guessed what he meant and whispered in his ear: "You want to ask me why I like such a strange person like Ah Zhe, right?"
Pei Jingshan followed his words and asked: "Why?"
Tang Muzhou shrugged and said, "No reason. You don't need a reason to like someone."
Pei Jingshan: “…”
Then why are you asking back?
The two brothers are both equally annoying. Is this what they call "birds of a feather flock together"? They must have endless common topics to talk about when they are together. They are really a perfect match - please stop harming each other and stop harming others.
Beside him, Ye Zhu looked blankly and murmured, "From now on, I won't be surprised no matter what cards Xie Mingzhe makes."
Bai Xu said slowly: "I will give up the habit of eating buns for breakfast starting tomorrow."
The scene on the screen just happened to cut to the big stage, and Nie Yuandao was seen with a serious expression and no one knew what he was thinking. The players watching the game in the backstage expressed their most sincere sympathy to Nie Shen.
Shan Lan felt a little guilty and whispered, "I didn't expect Xie Mingzhe would bring a Deathrattle card... Bingfeng's control skills were a step slower, otherwise Nirvana wouldn't have cleared the field."
Nie Yuandao gently shook his apprentice's hand and whispered soothingly: "It's not your fault. Even if you controlled the opponent in time, it wouldn't be of much use. Liu Bei is still alive. When Xie Mingzhe summoned the hidden card, Liu Bei's skill CD had already ended. Even if you controlled him back, he could immediately let Liu Bei clear the negative effects and then Dou E absorbed the damage to trigger the death skill. The result is the same."
Shan Lan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted: "So, Nirvana prepared for this final wave of clearing for a long time, sacrificing other healing and auxiliary cards, and deliberately left Liu Bei to ensure the triggering of Dou E's deathrattle skill?"
Nie Yuandao nodded: "Nirvana's tactical arrangements are very detailed."
Shanlan was speechless.
Things change rapidly on the field, and sudden death innings are not uncommon in professional leagues. They failed to stabilize the situation at the last minute and lost the game. Even if they were unwilling to lose, the game was over and the outcome could not be changed. They could only quickly adjust their mood and prepare for the second game.
The second game is the referee's home court.
The moment the map popped up in the selection frame, there was enthusiastic applause from the referee's fans!
——Walking in the clouds, judging the most classic aerial combat kills.
When it comes to aerial combat, the Judge is undoubtedly the strongest in the alliance.
Some of the god cards in the Temple of the Gods can float in the air, and Nirvana's fairy cards can also float in the air, but most of the god cards/fairy cards are long-range output cards, and are not strictly speaking air combat cards. Only Shanlan's bird deck is worthy of the title of "King of Air Combat".
The ultimate kill map is the most thrilling and exciting type of air combat map.
Most scene maps have negative conditions such as slowing down, controlling, and losing health, but the ultimate kill map is a map with a "must-kill" setting. Common ultimate kill maps include two types: one is an aerial combat map, where cards fall from the sky and die directly without being allowed to be resurrected; the other is a trap map, where cards fall into a trap and die immediately, and teammates cannot rescue them.
This must-kill setting increases the randomness of the game and also gives players more opportunities. Even in an unfavorable situation, they may be able to control the situation and kill several cards of the opponent instantly, thus making up the gap in an instant.
Walking on the Clouds, this is the map that Shanlan used when he won the individual championship. It is a very beautiful scene. Cards need to stand on the clouds to fight. There are many gaps between the clouds. If you accidentally fall from the gaps, you will die instantly even if you are full of health. There is no chance of rescue. Therefore, this map requires extremely high displacement operations from the players.
The moment he saw this picture, Xiao Ke said excitedly: "I guessed it right!"
When preparing for the game, Xie Mingzhe thought that the Judge would most likely use the aerial combat kill map, because the Judge's aerial combat was the strongest in the entire alliance, and there was no reason not to use it.
But guessing right is one thing, and whether you can win is another - the average winning rate of the Judge in the air combat map is over 65%. If you want to defeat the Judge in the air combat map, first of all, you must not make mistakes, and secondly, you must seize the opportunity and kill the Judge's key card with one blow.
This requires extremely high levels of player operation and teamwork.
Nirvana practiced the air battle map for a long time this week and chose a very special deck.
The game begins and both sides reveal their cards.
On the judging side, Nie Yuandao's "One-horned Black Rhino" has a range collision skill that can knock the opponent's cards directly off the clouds; Shao Dongyang's Beast King is very useful in the air battle map. As long as the main card is not dead, it doesn't matter how many small beasts are summoned. Li Jiu's white rabbit and hamster have extremely high activity and small size, so they are not easy to fall off; Shan Lan's bird cards have become the main force in the air battle map. Golden Eagle, Falcon, Vulture, Egret, all of them are birds with displacement control...
The air combat system of the referee is very complete, with Shanlan as the main output, and the task of auxiliary control is given to Shao Dongyang.
Nirvana's deck is also very interesting. The Bull Demon King, Princess Iron Fan, and Red Boy's joint cards all have displacement control skills. Nie Xiaoqian's single pulling, Bat Flower's group pulling... The appearance of a large number of displacement control cards represents Nirvana's full preparation for air combat!
The competition officially began amid the anticipation of the audience.
Compared with the "Ice and Snow" map in the previous game, the second game's map "Walking in the Clouds" has a clear sky. The soft clouds are like balls of white cotton wool, arranged in an orderly manner in the sky. All cards must be summoned above the clouds. The areas of the clouds vary. The largest one is nearly 10 square meters and can hold about 10 cards at the same time. The smallest one is only 1 square meter and can only hold 1 card.
Being the first to seize favorable terrain is also the key to the air combat map.
For example, it is better to occupy the big cloud in the center first so that the main force of your team gathers on the big cloud for easier coordination. As for the small clouds scattered around, once a cloud is occupied by the opponent, your cards cannot be summoned there. How to occupy the position that is more advantageous to you also tests the commander's analysis of the overall situation.
The Judge was very experienced in this kind of aerial combat map, so he immediately seized the center point at the beginning, allowing Nie Yuandao's unicorn black rhino to occupy the middle. Naturally, Nirvana's cards did not dare to confront the unicorn black rhino head-on, lest they be knocked off the clouds by it.
But Xie Mingzhe reacted very quickly and immediately found a large cloud nearby for the Bull Demon King to occupy.
The threat of Bull Demon King is no weaker than that of Lao Nie's One-horned Black Rhino. Both of them are melee impact cards that can repel the target. However, Black Rhino is a taunt card that absorbs damage, while Bull Demon King is a melee attack card.
Being repelled by these two cards will easily cause you to fall off the cloud and die. Therefore, once the two of them occupy a position on the cloud, the enemy's target cards will not dare to approach them at all, and can only occupy other clouds.
In a blink of an eye, both sides summoned about 10 cards, and clouds of all sizes were occupied one after another, forming a relatively balanced confrontation.
I thought the two sides would be in a stalemate for a while, but unexpectedly, at this moment, Shanlan suddenly summoned the golden eagle. With the sharp cry ringing in my ears, the referee blew the horn for a full-scale attack!
Shan Lan's bird card was extremely fast. The golden giant eagle spread its wings and flew towards Nie Xiaoqian, the judge, at lightning speed.
The golden eagle swooped down and swooped down towards Nie Xiaoqian who was standing on a distant cloud. Before Yu Ke could react, he was knocked away. Nie Xiaoqian, dressed in white, floated down from the sky. From a god's perspective, it looked like a white leaf falling from the sky.
The audience was shocked. They never expected Shanlan to fight so fiercely!
A card was killed in less than 10 seconds after the start of the game, which is also the fastest death record in this league.
Su Yang said: "Shanlan's movements were too fast. He launched a surprise attack before Nirvana was ready. The golden eagle's dive attack can push the target back five meters. The cloud where Nie Xiaoqian was located had a diameter of less than five meters. She was thrown into the air attack at the end of the cloud by the golden eagle and fell down, triggering the fatal effect of the map!"
Liu Chen commented: "Shanlan is very good at air combat. In fact, the card layout of both sides just now is very complicated. Even if we look at the overall situation from a bird's eye view, we still need to analyze it before we can come to a conclusion on which card to kill first. Shanlan was in the game, but he was able to find the gap in Nirvana's layout in an instant - it was Nie Xiaoqian!"
If you look down at the Cloud Walk Map from a bird's eye view, you will find that all the clouds are arranged in the shape of a Chinese character "U".
The middle circle is full of big clouds, and the surrounding area is filled with scattered small clouds.
The distance between the central area and the surrounding clouds is more than 30 meters, which is not within the range of long-range attack skills. The distance between the large clouds is only three meters, and the cards on them can attack each other, and melee cards can even jump directly over.
At this time, the Black Rhino and the Bull Demon King each occupied a large cloud, with their teammate cards next to them.
But the opponent may have group chaos control. If you put all the cards on a big cloud, if you are hit by a wave of chaos, you may suffer heavy casualties - this is just like eggs cannot be placed in a cage. If the cage breaks, all the eggs will suffer.
Therefore, although the 10-square-meter large cloud can hold 10 cards, both sides tacitly put only 4 to 5 cards on it, and the other cards were on small clouds at a distance, so that they could avoid fighting while waiting for the opportunity.
Yu Ke summoned Nie Xiaoqian to the farthest cloud in the corner with this idea - the attack skills of the cards on the central cloud could not reach her, and her position was too far away, so she would not be in danger for the time being. After waiting for the team battle to start, Nie Xiaoqian would use her hair to roll over the cards in the attack range and kill them. This style of play is called "side output", which can kill the opponent by surprise.
However, he didn't expect that Shan Lan ignored the pile of cards in front of him and actually let the golden eagle speed up and rush over to kill Nie Xiaoqian in an instant!
The advantage of the bird brand's super high speed was fully utilized at this moment. The golden eagle flew over from 40 meters away in less than 2 seconds. Yu Ke saw the golden eagle rushing to the northwest and thought that Shan Lan was going to defeat the Bull Demon King on the cloud in one second. As a result, the next moment, the huge golden eagle suddenly appeared in front of Nie Xiaoqian and pushed Nie Xiaoqian off the cloud!
This speed is really as fast as lightning.
Not to mention Yu Ke, no player in the alliance could avoid the sudden attack of Shanlan Bird Card.
The most annoying part about the death map is that your card may be killed instantly even if it is at full health, and there is no chance to revive or recover.
Losing a strong control card, Nie Xiaoqian, at the beginning of the game was very disadvantageous for Nirvana.
When Xie Mingzhe saw this, he summoned Wang Zhaojun without hesitation - the song of going out to the frontier, the bird card means death!
He directly used this skill to forcibly take down the Golden Eagle, because the Golden Eagle was the card with the strongest impact and the shortest cooldown time among the Shanlan bird cards. He let the Golden Eagle fly down so recklessly and continuously knocked the cards off the clouds. Nirvana's cards were pushed down one at a time, and it would soon collapse.
The criterion for whether a dead card in the Cloud Walk map array can be resurrected is whether your card is on the cloud.
If a card is shot down and falls from a high altitude, it will be shattered into pieces, and even the body cannot be found, so it is naturally impossible to revive. However, if it is killed normally by the opponent on the cloud, it can still be revived.
In the previous round, the referee decided to use the instant death card to deal with Jia Baoyu who was in Nirvana, but he was resurrected by Qiaojie. In the second round, Nie Yuandao naturally thought that the opponent would use the instant death card to target Xiaolan's flying bird, so he let Shao Dongyang bring a resurrection card.
The number of resurrections per game is limited, so the resurrection skill with a 10-minute cooldown is very valuable.
But Shao Dongyang handed it over without any doubt.
After the golden eagle was resurrected, it immediately spread its wings and soared into the sky. Its sharp eyes swept across the entire place and it quickly selected its next target - it wanted to kill Princess Iron Fan and break the connection between the Bull Demon King, Princess Iron Fan and Red Boy!
However, Princess Iron Fan is not a vegetarian.
Xie Mingzhe had long known that the Judgement card would include a Resurrection card, so he was not careless when the Golden Eagle was killed. After the Golden Eagle was resurrected, he immediately prepared for a counterattack.
The audience saw a wonderful scene. After the giant golden eagle died, it suddenly came back to life and soared into the sky, swooping down towards Princess Iron Fan without warning!
Just as it was about to kill Princess Iron Fan, the banana fan in Princess Iron Fan's hand suddenly rose up, and a tornado passed by, blowing the golden eagle away instead - the fierce tornado blew the golden eagle directly down from the sky, killing it in one blow!
There was warm applause at the scene.
Attack, counterattack, this wave of skill exchange is so beautiful.
Su Yang sighed: "The golden eagle wanted to kill Princess Iron Fan, but was killed in return. Xie Mingzhe's prediction was spot on this time!"
Wu Yue also said: "You must always stay alert during the air combat killing map, otherwise, your full health card may be killed instantly. Xie Mingzhe was obviously alert enough. Before the golden eagle killed Princess Iron Fan, he used his skills to complete the counter-kill! Because the golden eagle's killing is a close combat, and Princess Iron Fan's tornado can attack from a distance. It's like shooting your opponent in the heart with a gun before he pierces your chest with a knife."
Wu Yue's metaphor made the audience who didn't see the operation clearly understand.
Ultimately, it was because Xie Mingzhe acted quickly enough that he was able to seize the initiative and kill the golden eagle with a long-range tornado.
***
The two sides fought back and forth, Xiao Ke's Nie Xiaoqian and Shan Lan's golden eagle died one after another, and the number of cards was tied.
The next moment, Xie Mingzhe followed closely and fought back—
Red Boy's Samadhi True Fire burned towards the base camp of the Judgment. On this huge cloud of 10 square meters, there were already 7 cards of the Judgment. The flames spread over a large area, and the coordinated actions of the Bull Demon King and his family of three caused considerable continuous damage.
At the same time, the Bull King jumped onto the cloud occupied by the Judgement and began to charge forward.
But Nie Yuandao was experienced, and almost at the moment when the Bull Demon King jumped over to charge, he sent out the one-horned black rhino, which absorbed all the damage in the range, and at the same time, the black rhino's horn began to fiercely butt against the Bull Demon King.
On the big screen, a one-horned black rhino and a bull monster that had transformed into a demon king were bumping into each other, neither willing to give in.
The one-horned black rhino hit the Bull King once, pushing it back five meters.
The Bull Demon King rushed back and pushed the Black Rhino back another five meters.
Su Yang laughed and said, "The unicorn black rhino and the Bull Demon King started a lingering collision game."
Audience: “…”
Master Su Yang, what the hell is this lingering and lingering? Could you please use more reliable words?
Su Yang continued unreliably, "Since both cards have knockback skills, you knock me back five meters, and I knock you back five meters. It's fair, and no one can take advantage. It feels like a love-hate relationship."
Audience: “…”
Don't expect anything from his words.
Both the Black Rhino and the Bull Demon King had range collisions, but because Nie Yuandao was keeping a close eye on the Bull Demon King, no matter where the Bull Demon King went, the Black Rhino would follow him like a shadow, making it difficult for him to move and unable to collide with other cards. The two cards had no choice but to collide with each other, and the audience discovered that the card game suddenly turned into a "bullfighting contest."
It looks like the two cows are really going to end up fighting each other.
The audience was helpless and raised their heads!
