After his 11-game winning streak, Hsieh Ming-che paused and returned to his personal space to rest his mind.
The arena requires a high level of concentration. Players must not only pay attention to the position of each of their own cards and the timing of releasing skills, but also pay close attention to the opponent's seven cards. If you encounter a fierce competition, your brain will not be able to keep up.
Fortunately, low-ranked players don't react that quickly in the arena, and Xie Mingzhe's Dongwu deck used a combo to kill most of the opponents. But even so, after playing eleven games in a row, he was a little headache, so he stopped to sort out his thoughts.
Xie Mingzhe was just thinking about the game when he suddenly heard a system prompt: "This is a private message from my friend Ku Mu Feng Chun."
Withered Trees Resurrected is the master's trumpet. Xie Mingzhe quickly pressed the listening button, and a familiar clear voice came to his ears. He asked calmly, "Xiao Xie, have you been to the arena? How was your performance?"
Xie Mingzhe answered excitedly: "The results are not bad. We have won eleven games in a row! Except for the eleventh game when we encountered some unexpected situations, the previous ten games were all crushing in one go."
Chen Qianlin said: "It's normal for your deck to win more than ten games in a row at a low level. After ten consecutive wins, the system will match you with an opponent with similar record to test your ability to respond. Therefore, the player you meet in the eleventh game will be relatively stronger. The more consecutive wins you have, the stronger the opponents you will meet next time."
Xie Mingzhe also noticed that the "Star Card Apprentice" rank originally needed to accumulate 100 points to play the promotion game. According to the rule of 5 points for winning a game, it takes 20 games to advance. Since winning streaks will give extra points, the more consecutive wins, the higher the reward. He has already got 80 points after ten consecutive wins. When he won eleven consecutive games, he directly added 10 points, and now it is 90 points.
In other words, others may have to play 20 clean games to accumulate 100 points, but he can accumulate the score in 12 games by winning all the way.
According to Master, the more consecutive wins you have, the stronger your opponents will be. Only by winning against strong opponents can you prove that you are much stronger than your lower rank. So it seems that your next opponent will definitely be very strong.
Xie Mingzhe said expectantly, "This is perfect. Only when I meet stronger opponents can I gain experience and find out where my problems lie. Otherwise, I will definitely be beaten to the ground when I reach a high level."
Hearing the boy's cheerful voice, Chen Qianlin softened his tone. "Try to keep winning and see how many games you can win. When you lose for the first time, come back to me to analyze the reasons for your loss. Remember to save the game video."
Xie Mingzhe nodded immediately: "Got it, Master. I will continue to go to the arena!"
Chen Qianlin: "Well, come on."
Xie Mingzhe rested for ten minutes to regain his strength. When his mind became completely clear, he teleported to the Phoenix Star Region again.
What the master said was indeed right. After eleven consecutive wins, the opponent matched with him by the system happened to be a player who also had eleven consecutive wins.
At the low end, 90% of the players have no sense of competition, and many just pick up seven cards to test the waters. But there are also 10% of the players who have mentors, relatives, and friends who can guide them, and their decks are more reasonable. They also have strong sense of competition, and some are even small accounts opened by masters. When these people play against newbies, they can often crush them and win all the way.
If you have eleven consecutive wins, and you run into another player who has also won eleven consecutive games, it depends on who has better strength.
When Xie Mingzhe saw the opponent's performance, he immediately became serious.
After being teleported to the arena, he used the 20-second countdown to quickly observe his opponent's deck.
The player's ID is "Filina". She is a tall lady with big golden curly hair, sky blue eyes, and a very sexy image. Xie Mingzhe has no interest in the characters in the game at all. He directly focuses on the seven cards displayed in front of him.
——Ice Crystal Phoenix, Green Peacock, Pegasus, Flame Dragon, Black Crow, Huadiao, Falcon.
There are seven flying animal cards, among which the Ice Crystal Phoenix is water-based, the Green Peacock is wood-based, and the other five are fire-based.
Could it be the Judges Guild again?
Xie Mingzhe remembered that Shanlan, the disciple of Nie Shen, liked flying cards the most. The biggest feature of flying animals is that their movement speed and attack speed are much higher than other land creatures, but correspondingly, their defense is also much lower than other card decks.
The countdown was too short, Xie Mingzhe had no time to think about anything, and he quickly observed the skills of the seven cards.
The Ice Crystal Phoenix has a strong control skill which is a 3-second group freeze; the Green Peacock is a group health recovery card; the Flowery Eagle and the Falcon are both single attack cards, the Flame Dragon and the Black Crow are group attack cards, and the Pegasus is an auxiliary card with group status bonus.
This deck is both offensive and defensive, and the skill combination is also quite complete.
Xie Mingzhe roughly deduced the opponent's thinking after taking a look at the skills - Ice Crystal Phoenix freezes the opponent to control the group, Pegasus increases the group attack power, Flame Dragon and Black Crow attack together, Hua Diao and Eagle Falcon's single pursuit can kill the opponent's low-health cards in seconds, and Green Peacock defends with the back hand.
The playing style of this "Filina" is very similar to Xie Mingzhe in principle, and it is also a complete set of control and output chains, which are linked together. The key is whether she can kill the opponent's low-health cards in one second within the 3-second freezing control time.
The countdown ends and the competition begins soon.
As Xie Mingzhe expected, the opponent released the Ice Crystal Phoenix's group control skill at the beginning of the game - a large number of transparent ice crystals fell from the sky, and the visual effect was extremely gorgeous. The ice crystals hit Xie Mingzhe's cards and instantly froze all six cards!
Why six cards?
Because Sun Ce rode his horse out of the frozen area at an extremely fast speed! !
The opponent's Ice Phoenix and Xie Mingzhe's Lu Meng are both very sensitive cards. In fact, Xie Mingzhe may not lose if he takes the initiative. However, Xie Mingzhe did not do so this time. He wanted to change his thinking and try to play second.
Once he encounters an opponent with higher awareness than him, he may not be able to take the initiative.
So, what should you do if you are accused?
This is the key point that Xie Mingzhe needs to consider in this game.
Xie Mingzhe remembered that the maximum range of group attack and group control for all cards in this game was 30 meters.
As early as the countdown of the game, he calculated the distance between the two sides in his mind. The distance between the cards in the game was displayed by data. He placed Sun Ce at the edge, and when the opponent's Ice Phoenix started group control, Sun Ce ran away!
——Jiangdong Double Walls (linked skill), when Zhou Yu is on the field, Sun Ce enters an excited state, increasing his movement speed by 50%.
When Sun Ce is riding a horse, he has a 500% speed bonus. With the bonus of Zhou Yu's joint skills, the final speed is 550%, which is not much slower than flying animals. In the opponent's deck, the fastest flying speed of the Falcon is 600%, but the flying speed of the group-controlled Phoenix is only 520%, so when running, Sun Ce on horseback will run faster!
It was also the 50% movement speed bonus of this linked skill that allowed Sun Ce to run out of the freezing range instantly and not be affected by the freezing crowd control.
Seeing the opposing character cards collectively turned into ice sculptures, Filina mercilessly launched a group attack -
However, she unexpectedly discovered that after this set of group attacks, the opponent's character card was completely unharmed? Not even a drop of blood was lost?
After a closer look, I found that Sun Ce, who was riding a horse, ran out of the freezing range and activated the group taunt skill!
Filina's skill connection was out of inertia, because the previous eleven consecutive victories were all won in this way. The Phoenix group freezes, the Black Crow and the Flame Dragon use a combo, and the Huadiao and the Eagle Falcon pick out the cards with low health and kill them instantly, which basically determines the victory.
As a result, something unexpected happened this time - the group freeze failed to freeze Sun Ce, and Sun Ce happened to have a range taunt skill, so he absorbed both large group attacks!
The incident happened in just 3 seconds. She didn't have time to react. When she wanted to stop, it was too late. The two large group attacks all fell on Sun Ce alone.
No matter how high Sun Ce's health was, he couldn't withstand the two group attack skills and was reduced to zero in a blink of an eye.
Filina simply sent Huadiao and Yingshun to chase Sun Ce, and killed him in one breath!
At this time, Xie Mingzhe's other six cards were still in a frozen state, while Zhou Yu appeared with a red light effect of buff bonus - a linked skill. After Sun Ce was killed, Zhou Yu fell into a state of grief and permanently increased his attack power by 50%!
Seeing this scene, Filina felt something was wrong!
The two group attacks could have crippled all the opponents, but now only Sun Ce was killed, which was totally unplanned.
Seeing that the freezing time was about to end, in order to prevent the opponent from controlling her, Filina immediately activated the peacock's defense skill - the green peacock suddenly spread its tail, and the beautiful feathers formed a feather barrier with a very large range, and the whole group was immune to all control and damage for 3 seconds.
Although it was the first time he saw the "Green Peacock" card, Xie Mingzhe carefully observed the skills before the game and remembered that the Green Peacock's barrier could resist damage. Of course, he did not use skills blindly to attack the Peacock's barrier, as that would only be a waste.
Xie Mingzhe decisively adjusted his position and evacuated Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao from the battlefield within 30 meters.
The opponent took advantage of this time to send out Hua Diao and Ying Falcon, two cards with extremely strong single attack, to rush over and kill Zhou Yu!
The 50% damage bonus of the linked skill made Filina very afraid. In addition, Zhou Yu was the key link in the output chain. If she could kill Zhou Yu in one second, she could still win the game. If she couldn't kill him in one second, it would be bad because many of the opponent's card skills had not been released yet, and her two large group attacks were already on CD.
Filina calmly used Huadiao and Yingshun to attack Zhou Yu from both sides, and Zhou Yu was indeed killed instantly.
But Da Qiao is not a pushover. Xie Mingzhe quickly moved Da Qiao 30 meters away from the opponent to prevent Da Qiao from being controlled by the opponent. At the moment when Zhou Yu was dying, Da Qiao used her skill again - Seclusion!
Zhou Yu is missing!
Filina was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, and immediately turned her attention to killing Sun Shangxiang.
The biggest advantage of bird-type single critical hit cards is that they "do not rely on skills". They can deal high damage with normal attacks, and have strong ability to focus and switch fire. This type of card is called "cleaver flow" by netizens, and is the most favorite air raid fast attack play of the Judgement Club Shanlan.
Most card skills have a long CD, but this kind of kitchen knife card does not worry about the problem of not having any skills to use, nor does it worry about control such as silence and fear - because they do not rely on skills to make a living, and the opponent is enough to suffer from the normal attacks one by one.
The basic damage of Huadiao and Yingshun is extremely high. Sun Shangxiang, who was besieged by two birds, was crippled in the blink of an eye!
Da Qiao immediately activated the "Virtuous Helper" skill and restored 50% of Sun Shangxiang's health at once.
The opponent is relentless in pursuit, and it’s not good that Sun Shangxiang won’t stop. Xie Mingzhe quickly uses Sun Shangxiang’s second skill - Return to Hometown!
Sun Shangxiang teleported directly to Da Qiao's side and suddenly escaped from the opponent's attack range.
At this time, all the cards on the field were separated and the formation was completely messed up - Sun Ce was killed, Lu Xun and Lu Meng stood together, Sun Shangxiang, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao were in another place, and they were divided into two places. The opponent's Hua Diao and Ying Falcon were chasing Sun Shangxiang right in the middle of the formation, and the other five cards were within the 30-meter range that Lu Xun and Lu Meng could attack.
Xie Mingzhe found the opportunity.
Re-summon Zhou Yu!
The moment Zhou Yu returned to the arena, Lu Meng activated his skill - crossing the river in white clothes without bloodshed!
Everything in front of Filina's eyes suddenly went dark and she could not see anything.
She was a little anxious. Sun Shangxiang was being chased and bleeding. She only needed to place two flying birds and then take a bite, and Sun Shangxiang would be dead. However, she was blind and could not find Sun Shangxiang's exact location.
Xie Mingzhe was quickly adjusting his position at this time. Sun Shangxiang had just teleported back to Da Qiao's side, avoiding the critical hit of the opposite bird. At this time, she turned around and quickly returned to the battlefield, and went around to the back.
Zhou Yu and Lu Xun's fire-type group attack combo is activated——
The time for a full-scale counterattack has come!
When the blindness effect ended, Filina regained her sight and found that all her cards were surrounded by fire and chained together. Although the positions of her cards were very messy, they were all within the 30-meter attack range of the opponent's Zhou Yu and Lu Xun. The position of the opposing card and the attack distance were so beautifully controlled!
Filina became even more panicked and wanted to activate the Green Peacock's group healing skill to recover health. However, at this moment, Xiao Qiao, who had used her blindness to return to the arena, started playing the piano - Long River Song!
Mass silence!
Peacock's blood recovery failed, and Sun Shangxiang, who was behind, took action immediately!
Before Filina could react, she saw a flaming arrow suddenly shot from behind at her most vulnerable falcon.
Kill with one arrow, triggering a pursuit!
After killing the Falcon in seconds, I will kill the Huadiao. After killing the Huadiao, I will kill the Crow. After killing the Crow, I will kill the Flame Dragon!
Two arrows, three arrows, four arrows!
In almost the blink of an eye, the situation was completely reversed.
At the beginning, she was suppressing the opponent and killed Sun Ce in seconds, and almost killed Zhou Yu and Sun Shangxiang in seconds. As a result, the fat uncle seized the opportunity to counterattack and defeated her with a series of combos!
Six of the seven animal cards died instantly, leaving only the Peacock, which had the most blood. It stood there blankly staring at the corpses of its companions around it.
Filina: “………………”
A string of ellipsis marks represents her speechlessness at the moment.
Peacock can now add health, but what? How can she fight with only one healing card left?
Xie Mingzhe was in a good mood and sent a smiling face: "Thank you, thank you."
Filina: “…………”
Damn it! I'm almost dying of exhaustion, okay? I finally managed to beat Zhou Yu to a razor-thin layer of health, but it was taken back? I finally managed to beat Sun Shangxiang to a razor-thin layer of health, but she teleported away?
In the early stage, she pressed the opponent, but the opponent seized the opportunity and launched a counterattack, which made her completely confused.
This feeling is really annoying!
Filina felt a tight pain in her chest and immediately pressed the surrender button to leave the arena.
She found her best friend Shuangshuang and complained, "I'm so angry. How can this kind of operation still exist at the Star Card Apprentice level?!"
Shuangshuang was a little confused: "What's wrong with Sister Fei?"
Filina said unhappily, "I met an opponent in the arena, his name is Fatty Uncle, and he ended my eleven-game winning streak! He had seven character cards, and their skills were particularly strange! I disabled one of his cards, but he took it back and summoned it out again with full health. Is it still possible to play like this?"
Shuang Shuang saw this familiar name and immediately said, "Fat Uncle! Are you sure it's Fat Uncle?"
Filina: "Of course I am sure. After the fight, you still told me to give in. I am so angry that my head hurts. I won't fight anymore!"
Double; "…………"
It seems that Fatty Uncle is not going away. Seven character cards, did he make another set of character cards to fight in the arena? When she received Wu Song's card in the black market, because of her carelessness, the Arbitration Guild spent a lot of time waiting for Fatty Uncle's reply. This time she will not be careless. When she heard the name "Fat Uncle", Shuangshuang was as sensitive as a conditioned reflex.
It is necessary to report this matter to the vice president!
When Shuangshuang thought of this, she immediately took Filina to the guild territory and went to the office to find the vice president.
As the two of them walked to the door, they heard a voice coming from inside: "Vice President, I listened to you and got up at 8 o'clock this morning to play ranked games. I wanted to win 30 games in a row and rush to the expert level to play in this week's guild league. In the end, my ten-game winning streak was interrupted by a guy called Fatty Uncle."
Filina opened the door and said coldly, "What a coincidence! My eleven-game winning streak was interrupted by this fat uncle."
Canyang: “………………”
It’s the fat uncle again!
I just broke the world record of Purple Bamboo Forest a few days ago. Instead of making cards to play dungeons, I went to the arena to mess things up, right? Canyang felt a splitting headache and sent a message to Huanyue directly, saying, "Boss, please come back and take a look. I can't handle this matter..."
