Chapter 243.2: What was the name of this FTW mid-laner?

Trading one death for three, FTW had won themselves a big advantage!

Old G sucked in a breath. “Quiet can really do it.”

After that, he added another sentence. “Close and Quiet together are really strong.”

Yuan Ze stared at the dark screen, his gaze both focused and far away. “The younger generation will surpass the older.”

Regardless of whether it was Quiet or Close, both were of the ‘younger generation’ to him.

Now, these two younger brothers were going to throw him, the elder brother, onto the ground and smear him around.

Could he stand it?

Of course he wasn’t going to stand for it!

Yuan Ze spoke with focus. “Old G.”

There was no need to say more. The tacit understanding they had was also something that had been bathed in blood and thorns.

Gary: “Got it!”

L&P had a famous ‘rogue’ style play.

Why was it called rogue? It wasn’t because they broke the law nor was it because they were disgusting, but rather, it was because they were too unreasonable.

They relied on the advantage of their top-jungler combo to brazenly bully others.

Gary supported the top lane like crazy. With the double dark talents on the same stage, any top-laner on the other side would grow bald at the sight. There was no way to stand up to it at all.

It would be over as soon as they let their defense tower go in order to protect their own lives.

It would free up Yuan Ze, and then L&P’s top-jungler combo could roam around, beating up the mid and bottom lanes until they collapsed.

Sacrificing one’s life to defend the defense tower was also meaningless. Losing the tower after one’s death was only a matter of time.

Or, if the other side’s jungler also started providing support to the top lane, they would still fall into L&P’s trap.

When it came to two against two, Yuan Ze and Gary weren’t afraid of anyone; the two of them were able to hold steady even if it was a three against two fight, and they could still create enough opportunities for their teammates.

President V, Mo, and President A weren’t vegetarians who were easy prey. They would still be able to clear the towers in the mid and bottom lanes!

So, everyone knew how L&P played, but they couldn’t find a solution to it.

When faced with absolute strength, all sorts of recklessness or restraint was just fancy nothings.

Yuan Ze and Gary were just that much of a domineering ‘rogue’ duo!

The only thing that was able to lock them down had been last year’s Y1.

Of course, Y1’s top-jungler combo wasn’t all for show, either. They were fierce players who were really able to go up against them.

Now, L&P had started messing with FTW in the same way.

The audience felt stifled in their hearts as soon as they saw this. “Ahhhh, can’t you change methods? L&P, change your team name. What do you mean love and peace? You guys are tyrants and wild dogs!”

FTW, who had originally had an advantage, gradually had their advantage snatched away under Yuan Ze and Gary’s powerful suppression.

Ordinary fans only saw Yuan Ze and Old G’s strength, and only noticed them biting at the top lane without letting go. But experts could see the situation more clearly.

For example, Fu Li. He had studied L&P’s routines for many days and nights.

It seemed to be Yuan Ze and Old G’s angry suppression, but in fact, it was actually an amazing cooperation between the whole team.

Mid-laner VIVI, support Mo, bottom laner AA. They were all top players in the league, and all of them were fierce characters who could resist suppression in their lanes.

VIVI was famous for having a doll-like face and was black on the inside. He was always smiling like a fox and looked harmless, but he could enrage the other side when he was in the canyon.

You wanted to gank him?

You would end up empty handed nine times out of ten!

Even if Gary didn’t hit up the mid-lane a single time, nothing would happen at his mid-lane tower. Who would dare to disrespect this kind of strength!

Mo and AA were even more like a godly pair. Not to mention meeting with an ordinary bottom lane team, even if they went up against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, they would still be able to hold on until Yuan Ze finished beating up the top lane.

As long as the top lane exploded, then L&P’s rhythm would take off instantly. They would kill anyone in their way, no matter if they were gods or buddhas!

Before the game, everyone in L&P was already full of confidence. They didn’t think that they would lose, and they were only afraid that they would get kicked out after beating their landlords into collapse.

Thinking this way was very normal. After all, Close and Wei Xiao were still only two people no matter how strong they were.

Ning Zhehan, Bai Cai, and Yuan Ze were all new recruits. When Close and Wei Xiao were suppressed by Yuan Ze and Gary, then VIVI and the others could beat the three little ones from FTW into tears.

There were no obvious weaknesses in a strong team. The five players in L&P were all among the best, and as long as the top-jungler combos restrained each other, they were stable in a three against three situation.

This was also the source of L&P’s confidence.

And the match did develop this way as the game went on.

The fighting was completely crazy in the top lane. Gary let go of his entire bottom jungle zone and only ate from the top jungle zone. Basically, he only cleared out the top jungle zone before going to the bushes in the top lane to try and trap Close.

If Lu Feng’s understanding towards him had been even slightly less thorough or his positioning had been even just a tiny bit closer, then he would have already fallen at least three or four times.

However, even if he didn’t die, Close had been completely restrained.

Wei Xiao let go of his own bottom jungle zone after clearing it out once. “Old Yue, it’s yours.”

Yue Wenle: “Okay.”

If he didn’t make a trade-off, then even the great demon king wouldn’t be able to hold on!

Wei Xiao also began to provide support to the top lane like crazy. At first, the two sides were still testing each other out, but later on, they both refused to let things go.

The shadow thief and blood thief both had the advantage of being strong DPS dealers. They were extremely flexible talents with sufficient self-protection ability. But their disadvantages were also obvious, which was that they didn’t have enough control skills to forcibly keep someone in place.

The advantage of pairing a death knight with a shadow thief was that the death knight could resist damage, fight, and provide control. These skills were very comprehensive and had a natural suppression against thieves. Of course, there were some weaknesses involved; a death knight that went for the control route would sacrifice some flexibility, meaning that they were more likely to get caught by the two slippery thieves on the other side. Going for flexibility would reduce the death knight’s advantage, so finding balance was very difficult.

There was also the weakness of players themselves.

Close could brush out nine light arcs at will, but Gary could only sustain eight light arcs.

In a 2v2, there was no difference in damage between eight or nine light arcs. They both dealt excess damage.

What required attention was the difference in attack range. Nine light arcs had a much wider range than eight light arcs. If it wasn’t interrupted, then the two of them would have to hold onto their skills and retreat.

Once…

And again…

And yet again…

The top lane had wonderful plays, and everyone was immersed in watching, but at the same time, they became even more worried about the outcome of the game.

Could FTW win!

Could Close and Quiet, who had been completely restrained, split their attention to help their teammates?

It could be seen that Close and Quiet really wanted to kill the two on the other side, but Yuan Ze and Gary weren’t in a hurry.

They couldn’t kill Lu Feng and Wei Xiao, but as long as they dragged the game on, it would be to L&P’s benefit.

They couldn’t let things drag on like this.

Wei Xiao finished clearing the stone man that had just appeared in the top lane. “Captain…”

Close looked at the overall situation, his vision stopping at the mid-lane for a long time. Then, he said, “Come.”

Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. “Okay!”

They’d probed tentatively at the other side so many times, and now, they were finally going to engage in a life or death struggle!

There were no positioning errors, no ambush or ganking planned, or any surround and kill tactics. It was a head-on collision featuring real fighting as they showed off their operations!

It was difficult for the double thieves to force people to stay, but Old Bandit Yuan would definitely be unable to resist the temptation.

As for how they would get out of danger…

To hell with getting away, they just had to fight and be done with it!

Wei Xiao took advantage of his high blood sucking ability and used his ultimate move to resist damage. At the same time, he aimed his kiss of the blood raven at the shadow thief.

This was the only control skill that he and Close had. If it landed, then there was hope for them, and if it didn’t, then things would be very difficult.

It landed!

Gary was frozen for 0.5 seconds. This was enough time for them to play!

Wei Xiao: “I’m going first!”

In fact, he didn’t have to say it and Close would still understand what he meant, but he wanted to say it. He wanted to tell Close––

You can die for me, and I can also take on everything for you.

Yuan Ze didn’t have any intention of taking it easy on them at all. He attacked the blood thief with his blade, letting him suck as much blood as he wanted, since it wouldn’t be enough to counter one attack from his death knight.

A strengthened basic attack with crit damage flew out, causing a shocking 3800 points of damage.

This was really damned insta-kill like. It had to be known that the blood thief only had 5800 health!

One attack took down over half of his health. There wasn’t even enough time to suck blood and recover health.

There was little hope that Wei Xiao would be able to survive, but he had created enough of an opportunity by taking the lead to bear the brunt of this attack. He was sent flying, but it gave Close enough time to stack up his combo and move.

The moment the blood thief fell to the ground, nine light arcs burst out in the canyon.

Yuan Ze and Gary, who were caught within. “F*ck!”

This was absolutely unavoidable. Even if the two of them shared the damage between them, it was enough to send them home.

What could they do?

Gary and Yuan Ze were also people whose hearts had a connection.

Neither of them retreated. Instead, they both rushed towards the shadow thief who was still in mid air.

There was no way for Gary to stack up light arcs. He could only use the skills he had to stack up a wave of maximum damage. Yuan Ze was still in his heavy form, and his attack had been raised up infinitely. Even if he didn’t land a critical hit, his basic attack would deal nearly 2000 damage. It was sufficiently overbearing.

This scene surprised everyone.

The light arcs spread out all over the world, while the strongest top-jungler pair marched forward bravely. Their health bars plummeted quickly as they desperately tried to land a fatal blow on Close.

There was finally a result for the 2v2 on the top lane.

Close and Marshal both got a double kill at the same time!

The four of them were all killed!

This moment really made people’s blood boil, and it also made people want to laugh.

Four very strong, very aggressive people, um…

It could be said that the two toughest top-jungler teams in Glory had played out a double defeat.

You kill me, and I kill you. In the end, everyone perished together!

What was even more suffocating was that they’d even cleared out the soldier lane… the bustling top lane grew very lonely for a second.

The black feathers that fell slowly back to the ground were like dead leaves falling in autumn. It was very picturesque.

Was it an even tie?

Was it a draw in the fight between the strongest top-jungler combos?

Then, what about L&P and FTW?

To everyone’s surprise, even the people abroad and watching online were surprised by the next system announcement––

FTW.Silvery killed L&P.VIVI.

They’d originally thought that after the top-jungler combos all died, FTW would be beaten to death. Unexpectedly, the zither warlock in the mid-lane had killed the earth mage on his own!

What had happened?

How could the famously slippery President V end up being killed by FTW’s newcomer king?

What was the name of this FTW mid-laner?

Silvery.

That big child with granny gray hair?
