Chapter 45 Level 1 Team?
Chapter 45 Level 1 Team?
The air in the training room seemed to freeze.
Little Cream took off her headphones and stood up without saying a word.
He gave up his spot.
He paused for a moment as he passed Chen Xiao, but ultimately said nothing.
He simply walked silently to the sofa at the back and sat down, his whole body shrouded in shadow.
Chen Xiao sat down in the gaming chair, skillfully adjusted the equipment, and put on his headphones.
"Don't feel pressured, just play like you're in ranked." Maokai's voice came from behind, carrying a reassuring tone.
Chen Xiao nodded without saying anything.
He could sense the low morale of the entire team.
The crushing defeat in the last game was not just a simple loss in a practice match; it also laid bare the team's underlying problems.
They fought individually, lacking effective coordination, resulting in a disorganized and disorganized team battle.
Soon, the room for the second training match was set up, and both teams entered.
On the game loading screen, G2's chat box lit up again.
[All] G2.Caps (Azir): "Huh? Another new mid? Who are you? I haven't seen you before."
Upon seeing this, Ah Shui instinctively wanted to type a question mark.
But before he could press Enter, Chen Xiao had already started typing on the keyboard.
[All] TES.Lucifer (Ahri): "You will know me after this game."
Ah Shui was completely stunned. He turned to look at Chen Xiao, his mouth agape in an "O" shape.
"Holy crap, wow! You're something else, daring to talk to the Hat King like that?"
"mad!"
It's important to know that Caps is widely recognized as the best mid laner in Europe and America, the emperor of LEC, and a man who has reached the World Championship finals twice!
"The saying goes, 'A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger'... If you're going to chicken out before the fight even starts, what's the point of competing?"
……
Meanwhile, in G2's training room.
Jungler Yike chuckled as he read the chat: "Hey Caps, this newbie on TES is interesting, pretty confident!"
Caps glanced at the screen and shrugged dismissively: "That guy named Creme, didn't they say he was a top mid laner in the LPL? I didn't think he was anything special."
In his view, apart from a few established veterans, most of the so-called newcomers in the LPL are cut from the same cloth; they are aggressive in their actions, but their brains can't keep up.
It's easy to target.
Even that so-called "top-tier LPL mid laner" named Creme just now, he didn't seem like much.
G2 has made major changes to their roster this year, aiming for the World Championship title!
They didn't take Top Esports, who struggled to even qualify for the World Championship, too seriously.
……
Back in the training room.
Maokai, holding a tactical notebook, leaned down and quickly gave Chen Xiao instructions in his ear.
"Caps has a very stable laning style and rarely tries to win in lane, but he is very creative and often initiates team fights from unexpected angles, so you have to be careful of his moves."
"Your team fight strategy is very clear. You need to communicate more with Xiaotian and limit his performance."
Chen Xiao listened attentively, nodding repeatedly.
He certainly knows Caps.
From the once high-spirited "Little Cap" who pulled off amazing plays and even solo-killed Faker at the World Championship, to later playing utility mid-laners like Sion and Galio for the sake of team victory, and now regaining his former glory as a mid-laner.
Chen Xiao knows the entire career of this European prodigy like the back of his hand.
Old Hat's current actions may not be as swift and aggressive as when he was younger, and his playstyle is gradually shifting towards a more functional role of "serving as a slave" for the team.
But you should never underestimate him.
He can unleash his sharp claws again whenever the team needs him, just like the clockwork in the previous game, tearing apart all enemies.
"Is your Ahri proficiency okay?" Maokai asked, somewhat uneasy.
"No problem," Chen Xiao said confidently.
Although he doesn't play Ahri a lot in ranked games, his proficiency with her is definitely not an issue.
I don't like picking them in ranked matches simply because their stats aren't quite there yet, and they're not as powerful as other heroes.
But on the field, what we see more of is the hero's practicality.
Ahri's abilities in pushing lanes, providing support, and team fights are all commendable.
With a three-stage dash ability, they possess the power to create miracles.
It can be said to be a "must-know hero" for mid-lane players.
More importantly, Ahri is beautiful, big and gorgeous.
In today's aesthetic environment, which is poisoned by LGBT culture, she is like a white moonlight!
……
BP ended quickly.
The lineup is:
Blue side TES: Top laner Rumble, jungler Vi, mid laner Ahri, ADC Ezreal, support Nautilus.
Red side G2: Top laner Quesanti, jungler Xin Zhao, mid laner Azir, ADC Varus, support Karma.
Maokai's strategy this game was very clear: to play mid and jungle.
He wanted to see what kind of chemical reaction would occur when Chen Xiao and Xiao Tian were "combined".
"G2's lineup is really solid; it'll be tough in team fights later on." Ah Shui frowned slightly as he looked at the opposing team's heroes.
The combination of Tsar and Varus as the main damage dealers is incredibly solid, and their long range makes it easy for them to find opportunities to deal damage.
Varus and Karma in the bot lane have maximum poke ability, making them dominant in lane.
Ah Shui said with a bitter face, "This time, I'm going to go to jail!"
Despite his criticisms, he still supports the team trying new tactics.
He had seen the highest view from the mountaintop and knew all too well that a team that relied on only one path to carry would find it difficult to reach the pinnacle!
Didn't you see that RNG, who were at their peak during S8, fell to G2?
Stubbornly adhering to the "four-protect-one" strategy will only lead to certain death!
What's more, the opposing team is the most skilled at playing a four-protect-one strategy.
A change in formation is absolutely necessary!
……
"G2's top, mid, and jungle are their weaknesses; BrokenBlade and Yike aren't exactly top-tier players."
"So we must strike while the iron is hot!"
"369, your Rumble has an advantage in the early game against Quesang, but pay attention to vision control and avoid getting caught!"
"Chen Xiao, you can get lane priority in the early game with Ahri against Azir, and then try to help Xiaotian in the jungle as much as possible."
"..."
While the game was loading, Maokai took the opportunity to give a few more instructions.
If G2 beats them 2-0, that would be really embarrassing.
He could only hope that his own top, mid, and jungle players would perform well and prevent the game from dragging into late-game team fights.
That's G2's territory!
A few seconds later, the game officially began.
Summoner's Rift was in turmoil. After purchasing a Doran's Ring and two Health Potions, Chen Xiao took the lead and left the fountain.
Before Ah Shui could react, someone shouted, "GOGOGO, if you're slow to leave, you'll lose half the money!"
Chen Xiao glanced at his team's lineup and suggested, "How about we try a level 1 team fight?"
"With Titan's hook and Rumble's slow, I won't level up my skills yet. I'll decide whether to level up E or Q depending on the situation."
Xiao Tian agreed with him: "The enemy team's level 1 combat ability is quite average, so we can definitely give it a try in a level 1 team fight!"
Since even Xiaotian said so, everyone naturally agreed to the suggestion.
"It's just G2, let's beat them to a pulp!"
Behind him, Maokai's gaze fell on Chen Xiao's handsome profile, and he fell into deep thought.
With Chen Xiao on the court... it seems the team atmosphere is better now?
