All-Round Mid Laner

Chapter 27? Tiebreaker

Ye Shaoyang was very surprised by the boss's question. He can only play three heroes, [Abyss Master], [Illusionist], and [Frost Goddess]. Even if he took the initiative to say "I want to play in the professional league", no one would believe him.

When most people heard this, they would only think that he was young and frivolous and ignorant. Therefore, Ye Shaoyang didn't tell anyone except that he insisted on adding the additional clause of "e-sports player" when he negotiated with the whale platform - he wanted to play professionally.

Because his current strength is not enough, saying it is equivalent to talking in vain.

He originally planned to get some more heroes' national uniforms, and after the hero pool was deep enough to become a high-profile passerby king, he would contact professional teams, and then no one would think that he was "speaking wild words".

Unexpectedly, the boss would take the initiative to ask him this question. Ye Shaoyang did not answer directly, but asked instead, "Boss, do you think I look like someone who can play professional games?"

Chi Shuo said: "According to my observation, there is no problem with your operation and consciousness. Whether other conditions are up to standard, you still need to go through professional assessment and testing."

It doesn't mean that you can play a game if you play the game well. E-sports players do need a lot of professional testing.

Ye Shaoyang asked curiously, "Is the boss engaged in e-sports related industries?"

He had long been curious about the boss's identity. At first, he thought that the other party was just a local game enthusiast, but when he met him face to face today, Ye Shaoyang found that the boss's understanding of the game was very clear. It can also be seen that the boss's understanding of the e-sports circle is not like an outsider at all.

Chi Shuo was silent for a moment, then said solemnly: "You guessed it right, I'm the coach of an e-sports team. If you have the will to be an e-sports player, I can help you."

Saying that you are a coach is not to deceive Xiaobai on purpose, but the identity of the coach makes it easier to let people down. Because, for most teams to sign players, the coach's opinion will account for a large proportion. The coaches of many teams will also go to the private sector to find excellent seedlings and bring them back to cultivate.

Sure enough, after hearing that he was the coach, Xiaobai's eyes immediately became respectful: "Hello coach, how did you notice me? It's only been a week since I started the live broadcast."

Chi Shuo explained: "You were playing in the King's Promotion Tournament, and the match against Brother Ayu was recorded and sent to a group with many e-sports players. I watched that game and found that you were very good at it. Commanding talent, I went to your live broadcast room to follow you."

Ye Shaoyang suddenly realized: "So it is."

I really thank you brother Ayu for your support.

Brother Ayu publicly scolded e-sports players, and his reputation in the e-sports circle must be very bad. At that time, he bumped into Brother Ayu in the rankings. He just wanted to be the king as soon as possible, so he patiently directed his teammates to come back in the headwind game. Unexpectedly, the simple game of the king's promotion was actually recorded and even started inside the e-sports player. spread.

In this way, there should be many coaches watching him.

The boss is the quickest one, fast-forwarding to meet him privately.

Ye Shaoyang asked: "So, you gave me gifts in the live broadcast room, invited me to watch the game, and met with me, just to confirm whether I was suitable for a career?"

Chi Shuo admitted frankly, "That's right."

Ye Shaoyang completely let down his guard this time.

The coach finds talented passers-by and personally contacts them. He has seen many such examples. Since the other party is so direct, Ye Shaoyang has no need to hide it. He simply said, "I'm 21 years old now. Do you think it's too late if I go to a career?"

Chi Shuo looked at Xiao Bai in surprise.

The boy's eyes are very frank, his voice is very young, and he doesn't have the deep tone of an adult Alpha at all. Chi Shuo thought that Xiaobai was a teenager who was just differentiated around 18 years old, but he didn't expect to be 21 years old.

It is indeed a bit late to get into e-sports at the age of 21.

Most of the newcomers started trial training in their teens, and at the age of 21, they are already the main force of each major team.

But it's not entirely hopeless.

To evaluate a professional player, you can't just look at age.

Chi Shuo looked at him and said softly, "If you want, you can be 21 years old."

Hearing the agreeable answer, Ye Shaoyang couldn't help laughing: "Really?"

Chi Shuo said: "Playing games mainly depends on talent. Some people have played for several years, and their performance is still poor. Some people can win the season's NovelFireP in their first year of debut."

Ye Shaoyang nodded in agreement: "That's true."

Chi Shuo's eyes were calm, and he looked at Xiaobai's eyes seriously and said, "If you want to become an e-sports player, you must pass some professional tests, such as reaction speed, dynamic vision, effective hand speed, etc. I can take you to the test. , so that you can also understand yourself more clearly."

"If you don't have the talent to be an e-sports player, you can continue on the road of anchor. With your game technology and live broadcast style, you will definitely become the top streamer in the anchor industry."

"But if you have the talent to play professionally..."

"You will have one more choice to go to that higher stage."

Chi Shuo turned his head and looked at the stage at the center of the arena.

Ye Shaoyang also followed his gaze and looked back—

In the soundproof room on the big stage, the two players are making the final preparations.

Some people are drinking water to adjust their state, some people get together to discuss tactics with the coach, and they must take good care of the last rest time before the tiebreaker, because the next game will determine the team's fate this season.

In a tense and exciting game, no one can determine the result until the last minute.

- Isn't it this stage that he loves?

Even if he lives again, his determination has never changed.

What's wrong with being 21? It's not too late if he wants to.

Ye Shaoyang took his eyes back and looked at Chi Shuo: "Thank you for your appreciation for me, I can follow you to do the test to see if I have any talent in e-sports. However, I also want to make it clear to you in advance. ."

Ye Shaoyang paused and said seriously: "I can't guarantee that I will definitely join the team that coaches you."

He's the guy who wants to win the world championship.

So, it's not just the team that chooses him, he also chooses the team - he has to choose a team that has the potential to win the championship, not just join a second-tier team and kill his time.

Chi Shuo admired Xiaobai's frankness, nodded and said, "Of course, it is your freedom to choose which team."

The lights on the big stage came on, and the screen switched back to the commentary.

The commentator said excitedly: "Audience friends, welcome back! The players on both sides are ready, the tiebreaker is about to start, let's focus on the big screen!"

Mingyu: "The tiebreaker of the playoffs is different from the regular season. The rule is to release a ban. One hero can't help it. Players from both teams can get their best heroes."

Yoyo: "Let's see what lineup they will come up with—"

Ban is placed in the tiebreaker, and the hero pool is fully open to players. There are 10 players on both sides, and heroes are selected at the same time, and the heroes of both sides can be repeated. Ye Shaoyang has also seen this kind of competition system. Sometimes, a certain lineup system is very strong, and there are even situations where both sides choose the exact same lineup to PK.

But today, the choices of Jingzhe and Huowen are not the same.

Jing Zhe really took out the poison team, Fang Zhengqing's [Cobra King] and Xie Yuan's [Poison Warlock], the Double Poison Mage, of which [Poison Warlock] used the attack speed equipment to move away from the shooter position, and the efficiency of pushing towers was very fast. Priest]'s blood-sucking shield, the entire team is very meaty, and the output is also very strong, it is very difficult to target.

Ye Shaoyang saw the lineup selected by the Fire Emblem team for the first time—the captain Zhou Zhou took out the mid lane mage [Goddess of Flame], the jungler was [Trap Hunter], and the shooter was [Fort Expert], Ye Shaoyang recalled carefully. Check the skills of the three heroes and look at Chi Shuo: "A positional battle?"

Chi Shuo said in a low voice: "Yes. The Goddess of Flame can lay a fire field on the ground, and enemies who enter the fire field will be affected by the burning state and lose blood continuously; trap hunters can lay traps in a large area, locking the enemies in the field. Mobile; turret specialists can set up turrets in concealed locations and fire range shells."

Ye Shaoyang suddenly realized: "In this case, the enemy will be unable to move an inch."

There were fires, traps, and a hidden turret shooter, killing a man in one shot.

When playing in a group, you will face the embarrassment of "nowhere to go". The Fire Emblem team can rely on the advantages of positional warfare and move forward steadily until they reach the enemy crystal.

But this lineup also has a huge flaw.

Ye Shaoyang analyzed: "In a positional battle, the team is really strong. The ground is full of fires and traps, and the opposite side can't cut in at all. However, when a single hero is taken out, it has no explosive power and is easy to be defeated one by one."

Chi Shuo looked at him with admiration: "That's right."

Xiaobai's comprehension is really high, and he can point out the flaws of the lineup.

Chi Shuo said: "Huowen's coach must have guessed that the opposing team will choose the poison team, so they came up with the positional warfare system they are good at. Because the poison team also did not break out, and both sides are suitable for team play. In this round, It is estimated that it will drag on into a protracted battle of more than 40 minutes."

What is the explosion? Relying on the assassin who can instantly cut into the opponent's back row, he can instantly drop the opponent's core mid laner, and even requires the middle and jungle to work together to go to the second man. Before the team battle begins, take away the opponent first, creating a 5-on-4 situation and destroying the opponent in one wave.

Looking at the lineup of the Fire Emblem team, the jungler [Trap Hunter] does not have the ability to kill in seconds. As for the shooter? Don't talk about going to the second person, it is the key not to be second by the other side.

The Jingzhe team is also the same, [Cobra King] and [Poison Warlock] cooperate with stacking poison. When playing a group, they can quickly stack the poison on the opposite side to five layers, causing all the opponents to collapse. However, stacking poison takes time, they don't have the ability to instantly kill each other, and they are better at fighting attrition.

Both sides are team-fighting lineups.

In this case, it's easy to drag it to the later stage and rely on details to win.

Ye Shaoyang sat upright excitedly and looked up at the big screen.

In this game, he will definitely learn a lot from the operation of the army line, the timing of the teamfight, and the detailed operation of the players.

Chi Shuo found that Xiaobai had entered the "watching mode without anyone else", as if nothing could disturb him. He was a cold-blooded and ruthless watching machine.

Such seriousness and concentration is really rare.

Chi Shuo retracted his gaze from Xiaobai, leaned on the seat, and looked at the big screen.

In this game, many spectators may find it boring. Because the two sides avoided each other from the beginning, they couldn't fight at all. Both sides were immersed in clearing, developing, and farming, as if they were playing a stand-alone game...

But Ye Shaoyang was not bored.

Pull, stalemate, and see full details.

For example, the team suddenly forced to move with a skill, which caused Zhou Zhou to miss a soldier.

Zhou Zhou's continuous fire suppression forced Fang Zhengqing to return to the tower to clear the soldiers. The Huowen team's jungler and mid laner joined forces to invade the wild area and stole a small monster on the opposite side.

The duel of the top masters is in these subtleties.

In the first 15 minutes of the game, there was not a single teamfight.

Until the double mage and the shooter are fully developed, and the three-piece equipment is ready, they can finally come out.

The two sides began to quickly form a group, testing each other.

In the first wave, Jing Zhe's two players were trapped by the trap, Zhou Zhou's suit burned with fire, and they played a wave of 0 for 2. The Jing Zhe team quickly retreated, but had no choice but to lose Xiaolong.

In the second wave of teamfights, Jing Zhe took the initiative to force the attack. The top laner rushed into the crowd in the face of the fire. A group mocked and pulled the middle lane and jungler on the opposite side. Personal head!

20 minutes into the game, the two sides pushed down each other's outer tower and inner tower, leaving only the high ground.

The highland defense battle continued for more than ten minutes. You come and go, you can see how intense the pulling is.

Until the late 40 minutes, the most critical wave of the big dragon team battle, the two sides began to seesaw frantically, Ye Shaoyang clenched his fist nervously and stared intently at the big screen.

Gorgeous skills, extreme operations...

And long-lost blood.

Although he watched these players compete on the field as a bystander, he couldn't help but think, if he was on the field, how would he avoid Fang Zhengqing's poison circle and Zhou Jiawen's fire? How should he seek a breakthrough where there are traps everywhere? Can he avoid the auxiliary man-marking and beat the opposing shooter?

It's hard.

His thorns, in such an environment, may also have "nowhere to go".

This is a world-class mid laner.

He, an outsider, still has a long way to go from being "world-class".

The last wave of teamfights was extremely fierce. The Fire Mark team took the lead to fall two, and then stood up with the equipment [Resurrection Armor]; Jing Zhe was killed three people, when they also stood up with [Resurrection Armor]...

What awaits them is a cemetery laid with raging fire.

Team Zhou specially reserved skills to deal with the residual blood state of their resurrection and standing up.

The flames were blazing, the flames were soaring, and the blood bars of the three people disappeared in an instant!

The Jingzhe team was destroyed.

Only Zhou Yi was left in the Fire Mark team. He took a wave of soldiers and slowly pushed the crystal away.

The commentator said excitedly: "Congratulations to the Huowen team for their first win in the playoffs!"

The cheers from the audience almost knocked over the roof.

Ye Shaoyang couldn't help but applaud the players for their wonderful performance!

So handsome. In this game, all the players played very well, especially in the final tiebreaker. Several waves of team battles came and went, and the fight was very intense. It can even be used as material for coaches to observe and study repeatedly.

Chi Shuo looked back at him.

For the full 45 minutes of the tiebreaker, Xiaobai sat upright the whole time, his eyes never leaving the screen of the arena.

This is the love of eSports, right?

His eyes can't deceive anyone.

Chi Shuo asked in a low voice, "How is it? Today's game didn't let you come in vain, right?"

Ye Shaoyang smiled and nodded: "Well, I have gained a lot. I will go back to the Internet to watch the replay again."

Chi Shuo stood up and said, "It will take a long time for the audience to leave the venue. Come with me, and I will take you through the backstage channel, so you can get out as quickly as possible."
