Even though it was morning, the time when the Korean server had the least amount of players online, the queue speed was not slow.
The main reason was that there were already six people in Lin Yan's group.
The players started the queue waiting mode at the same time. Lin Yan's group's score was still very close, between five hundred and thirteen hundred points.
This meant that if four more players joined, they would be able to start a ranked match.
After waiting for less than seven minutes, the notification that they had successfully matched their teammates appeared on the client interface.
Lin Yan clicked accept and entered the room in no time to jump to the hero preliminaries.
"Huh?"
Jack looked at the IDs of his other four teammates and was instantly dissatisfied. "Brother Ran and I are not on the same side!"
"I'm not here either …" Liu Qingsong saw that his teammates were Shiba Inu and letme. He was already prepared to be a point giver.
"Wait, how are we going to play this match?"
Letme glanced and saw that Ouze, Mongoose, and Lin Yan were on the opposite side, while all three of them were side players. She felt that the Korean server's system must be out of its mind. "With the two of you on the same side, won't the early game be chaotic?"
Nakas were definitely the most powerful players in the early game, regardless of which version it was.
Xiao Tian and Lin Yan, who had been playing together for three years, were on the same side. It was the most nightmarish experience for the enemy.
Lin Yan did not reply.
He was busy greeting the other two players on the same team.
They were all old acquaintances.
YMGimGoon: [?]
Jamoo-kung made the first move.
He obviously did not expect to meet Lin Yan and Phyllostachys Pubescens in a ranked match this morning.
Mongoose's lips curled into a happy smile.
Haizaizuiying: [Whoru?]
Jin Gong sent another question mark, then went straight to the point: [Woshinidie]
YM's Ueno brothers were still interacting peacefully, while Lin Yan stared at the remaining player.
Both of their IDs were very famous in the Korean server.
Dansha Faker: [5p, MidorSup?]
Hideonbush: [supplz]
Letme was in despair.
What kind of lineup did they have?
Top laner Jin Gong, jungler Mongoose, mid laner Lin Yan, bottom laner Ouze + Faker!
With this lineup, it wouldn't be a problem for them to take on the All-Stars!
How were they going to win?
Before Letme arrived at Shenzhen yesterday, he had barely managed to become the king of the Korean server. If he were to give away his position in this ranking match, wouldn't he become a master again?
Lin Yan yawned and took a bottle of water from his girlfriend behind him.
Li Xianghe and Jin Gong had probably just started their training and were adjusting their work and rest habits. They were all rushing to practice Heroes in the morning.
He felt that this game was a sure win!
But Li Xianghe taught Lin Yan a lesson.
"What is Faker, the Bull's Head trying to do?" Ouze's Guan Yu face returned.
"What's the meaning of him shoving f — Leona in my face?!"
He looked at the black and white screen and almost went crazy.
When Liu Qingsong saw Wootz's expression, his face bloomed with a smile.
Just now, Li Xianghe took advantage of his team's advantage and used Hex's Blink to teleport to the side of Tearing Wounds. He then used Q's Earth Shattering to smash Leona, who was controlled by the other party, into the sky. He then walked behind Sunshine Girl and used W's Barbaric Charge to push her into the team's formation.
Liu Qingsong was worried about how to turn the tables. For them, if they couldn't kill Uzi's Kesha, they wouldn't be able to win the team battle.
After all, a team that couldn't kill Ouze was not a good team.
After Kesha was formed, she had a stealth mechanism and couldn't be seen by the eyes of the fallen. In addition, Ouze also had a Purify. It was extremely difficult to control and kill Kesha in a team battle.
He didn't expect someone to give him a pillow when he was tired. Li Xianghe's Horn pushed him to a position less than 500 yards away from Kesha!
He immediately used Flash Q Shield of Daybreak to stop Ouze!
Uzi didn't even dream that there was a mole in the team.
He wasn't prepared and was controlled by Liu Qingsong for a moment before he hurriedly used Purify.
However, Leona's E [Blade of the Zenith] and R [Solar Flare] skills had also chained together to control Wootz. Wootz was unable to move at all!
At the same time, Let Me's Aune also summoned Magma Elemental from not far away and sent Kesha flying into the air!
Then, Jack Verus used Corruption Chain to receive a Heart-Piercing Arrow and instantly lowered Ouze's HP. With the help of the crowd, Kesha couldn't move. She stood in place and let the enemy attack her. In the end, she died tragically in the river!
Without Ouze as the core damage dealer, Jack's side immediately gathered together to take down Baron Nash.
"This is bad, brothers!" Mongoose was dizzy.
He could guess why Li Xianghe did this. At that time, Liu Qingsong's position was a little out of joint. If they could kill him in one shot, they could use the Dragon.
However, the problem was that their damage output was not enough to kill Liu Qingsong.
Although Kesha, who was controlled by Uzi, had developed quite well, the weakness of this hero was that it did not have any true damage. The magic damage caused by Plasma was ultimately of limited threat to a tank like Leona who had full resistance.
It could only be said that Faker didn't play support often and didn't have a deep understanding of this position.
"F * ck …" Ouze watched as the opponent charged straight in with the Dragon buff and quickly destroyed the defense towers one by one before finally flattening the base.
He looked at the data panel and found that Jack's battle damage ratio was 2 kills, 8 deaths, and 7 assists. He was instantly dumbfounded.
"Can Verus even win?"
Shiba Inu's mouth was crooked from laughing. He boasted to Ouze who was beside him, "Do you understand the bottom lane of this version?
I'm just a pendant. How many times have I roamed? You always call Mongoose and Brother Ran down to catch me. What's the use? "
Let Me, who had successfully won the game, also slumped on the chair happily. "I feel good, I feel good!"
Ouze was in a bad mood.
He thought that he could carry this game, but he was screwed over by the mole, Li Xianghe.
In the next game, he was still placed opposite Jack, but this time Uzi recruited Liu Qingsong to be his support.
"I'll still choose Kesha. Liu Qingsong, you take Bull's Head. As long as the jungler comes, the bottom lane will definitely die!" He planned to regain the face that he had lost previously.
Jack panicked.
In this game, he was partnered with Suning Team Two's small support. He copied the player's ID and went to fow.kr to check the player's information. He found that the player's score was quite high.
However, Shiba Inu was not happy.
This was because he knew very well how high the upper limit of a two-man team with coordination and communication.
Although Ouze and Liu Qingsong had not partnered much, being in the same room was equivalent to playing a game with the mic on. It was definitely much better than him playing with a random support.
If Uzi were to ask for help like in the previous game, Shiba Inu could imagine how miserable he would be.
"It's fine, you just pick a hero that can get through." Lin Yan who was on the same side as him finally spoke, "Try to die as little as possible and I'll carry you to victory."
After saying this, he locked Akali.
"Good luck, good luck!" Su Cheng who was standing behind her boyfriend pinched Lin Yan's shoulder and cheered him on.
Jack obediently took the reversed version of Azreal and planned to play the bottom lane as a solo lane.
Ouze saw the lineup on the other side and his fighting spirit soared.
"Come, come, come!"
He was very excited and felt that he had a lot of room to play, "Watch carefully, I won't die in this game and I'll become a god!"
28 minutes later.
Kesha's painful cry came from the headset.
Ouze was biting his finger in a daze.
The respawn time was 30 seconds and Lin Yan and Jack could completely destroy his base!
The six members of the coaching team, who were watching the game from the back, were stunned.
Uzi's record was 8 kills, 5 deaths, and 7 assists.
Jack was very proud of fulfilling part of his promise.
He had become a god.
But he didn't die once.
Adding in his own skills, Ouze reached a godly record of 8 kills and 0 deaths in 15 minutes.
However, in the middle of the team battle, he didn't take a single kill.
Lin Yan controlled Akali to kill him in all kinds of strange ways.
In the final wave, even after killing Ouze's teammates, the second R [Dazzling Killing From Inside] was sent back to the fountain by QA.
"Damn ….." Ouze saw the scene of the main Crystal exploding and finally came back to his senses, "Is Akali this terrifying?"
"Ai, what are you saying!" Jack raised his head and stuck out his chest. He was filled with confidence after winning two games in a row. "Isn't this because Big Brother Ran played well?"
Lin Yan saw that his record had stopped at 1557 and he began to drink his water in satisfaction.
Ouze couldn't take it anymore.
He had a large advantage in the bottom lane in these two games, but he had lost them both.
If it was the last game, he could say that Li Xianghe was playing him in the last team battle.
But in this game, he had been completely blown away by Lin Yan's Akali in the team battle.
No matter where he hid, Akali would always be able to find him in the beginning of the team battle.
For an assassin with normal equipment, killing an archer was very easy. It didn't matter how fat you were, before the defensive equipment was made, there was no difference whether Edisi was a god or a ghost in front of Akali, it was just a matter of a set of skills.
"Let's go eat, let's see what lunch is like!" Mongoose stretched out. Seeing that it was close to twelve, he quickly prepared to go to the cafeteria to fill his stomach.
Let me had won these two games and if nothing unexpected happened, he would be king for at least another day. He happily walked to Ouze's side and forcefully patted his shoulder.
"Let's go, Jack is proud!"
"….. You can all go eat, I'm not hungry right now." Ouze's face turned red as he muttered this, looking a bit depressed.
Liu Qingsong on the side wanted to persuade him again, but Lin Yan suddenly pulled him back.
Open Wounds didn't understand what was going on, but he had absolute trust in Lin Yan, so he followed everyone out of the training room.
Before the door closed, he saw that Ouze was still sitting in the chair. His broad shoulders were pulled back, revealing a depressed and lost look.
"What is this situation?"
Liu Qingsong walked down the empty hallway and impatiently asked the person beside him, "Isn't it just two games?
It can't be, right, you only dropped 40 points! "
He had a close relationship with Lin Weixiang, so the Midnight Wargod's points kept fluctuating with a base of one hundred. 40 points was nothing to him.
Then again, how could a pro player care about their rank?
Don't fall to Diamond One or Diamond Two, just a few hundred points would be acceptable.
Liu Qingsong frowned and thought hard. Finally, he had an idea. "Does RNG have a rule that if your ranking points don't reach the standard, your salary will be deducted?"
He had a good relationship with Old Ancestor Sai Wen. He heard that EDG had such a rule, but he didn't know if RNG had it too.
Liu Qingsong could understand Ouze's attitude if his salary was deducted if his ranking points didn't reach the standard.
Putting himself in his shoes, Master Si felt that he would fight to the death with whoever deducted his salary.
"That's true …" Let me answered honestly. After all, this wasn't a secret. "My master can get all his salary with 300 points," Jack answered.
He finally understood why Yan Junze was so determined to keep his position as the king of the Korean server.
Who wouldn't go against money?
Let me wanted to say something but stopped.
"What's wrong?" Liu Qingsong asked curiously.
He scratched his head. "The club set the ranking line for Ouze to reach is 600 points. As long as his score is higher than that at the end of the month …"
They saw it clearly just now.
Ouze's score was more than 600 points.
After losing two games, he still had 777 points. Normally, as long as he didn't fall ill or get attacked by other actors, he wouldn't have a problem keeping his salary.
"Then what's the problem?" Liu Qingsong couldn't figure it out.
From his point of view, if his salary wasn't deducted, then what was there to be upset about losing two games?
"Okay, okay." Lin Yan pressed the elevator button. "You guys can just stay here and guess. None of you can hit the nail on the head."
"Ha." Mongoose looked at him with disdain. "You know it again?"
"Of course I know it better than you," Lin Yan replied.
Phyllostachys Pubescens mocked him for being a know-it-all. The two bickered all the way to the cafeteria.
While waiting in line for food, Su Cheng finally found some time alone with her boyfriend.
"Tell me, what's going on with Uzi?" She couldn't hide her worry.
Su Cheng felt that it wasn't good news for the entire team if a player on the team showed such negative emotions on the first day of training.
The sports team's lunch was buffet style. Lin Ran put two chicken wings on his plate and picked up some stir-fried noodles with vegetables. At the same time, he explained to her, "Wootz wants to prove his worth in the team."
"Irreplaceable value."
"Huh?" Su Cheng made a sound of confusion.
Then she understood.
She understood what Lin Yan meant.
Ouze's situation was very awkward in the current Asian Games team.
The ADC position was the only position that had a rotation.
And the one who rotated with him was Jack.
YM's starting player was Addison.
YM's players took up three key positions in this Asian Games roster, and there were no substitutes. Unless something unexpected happened, they had to play from start to finish.
It was no exaggeration to say that on the field, YM's players controlled the rhythm of the game.
Relatively speaking, Lin Ran, Little Xun, and Liu Qingsong were naturally more inclined towards Jack. After all, they were old teammates who had worked together for many years. They were very close as partners and would not encounter too many obstacles in terms of tactical communication.
Especially the duo in the bottom lane, Jack and Liu Qingsong's tacit understanding was definitely better than Uzi and Tear.
Uzi must be well aware of this.
If he couldn't show some unique characteristics, he would be suppressed by Shiba Inu on the starting list.
Because he had no advantage.
For Lin Yan and other YM players, Shiba Inu was naturally a better choice.
"So that's why Uzi kept asking the mid laner and jungler to surround Yue in the bottom lane in order to fatten himself up?"
Su Cheng followed Lin Yan closely. "He's very depressed after losing the game … because he didn't prove his strength to you?"
But her plate was empty. She probably forgot to take something when she was thinking.
Lin Yan pointed at his girlfriend's plate. Su Cheng finally reacted. She quickly picked up the tongs and took some salted chicken and fried rice.
"You guessed right. If nothing unexpected happens, Ouze will ask me and Mongoose to protect the bottom lane in this afternoon's mock game."
Lin Yan took two boxes of yogurt and handed one to his girlfriend.
"After all, his biggest advantage is that he has four PK's."
Su Cheng suddenly understood.
This was indeed Ouze's most confident and representative strategy.
And Jack couldn't play it well.
Although YM sometimes used Garlio as the ADC, it was just for fun. When it really came down to it, Lin Yan wouldn't choose four PK's.
Moreover, YM's four to one was mostly in terms of the lineup, not in terms of the system's playstyle.
For example, when YM played against RNG and IG a few days ago, they got a lineup that did whatever they wanted. In terms of hero selection, they had four PK's.
But in reality, YM's actual combat strategy was very changeable.
In the game against RNG, Jack's development was very smooth. His teammates surrounded him during the team battle, putting layer after layer of shields on him. Kegmo spat and ran over him like a bulldozer.
And in the game against IG, Jack's survival space was infinitely compressed by King Ning. He was at the level where he would be instantly killed if he looked at his opponent.
In this situation, YM quickly changed their strategy and poured money into Phyllostachys Pubescens' Camille.
After Qing Gang Ying's jungler was equipped, she relied on the true damage of Precise Etiquette. Her strength was very guaranteed among the Warrior heroes, and it was very difficult for those who could beat her in the later stages of the game. Even in the era of S7, when the top laner Camille was domineering, Jack's appearance rate wasn't high.
After Mongoose had enough money, he kicked a kid one by one and led his teammates to victory.
This was enough to see YM's style was very changeable.
They rarely put all their eggs in one basket.
This gave the team a wide range of operations. Once it was difficult for Jack to carry the game with four PK's, they would immediately change their tactics and resource allocation to implement a plan with a higher chance of winning.
To be honest, Jack couldn't be the team's absolute resource core. Sometimes, he would die if he didn't focus.
So he didn't eat so many resources and distributed more to his teammates. The team focused on multi-core, so he played better.
Ouze's four-Kings system was completely different.
After this spring's evolution, RNG had already built a four-Kings plus system, from the lineup to the in-game playstyle and resource allocation.
The team gave resources to Ouze, and at the same time, chose to control more characters in the front row in the mid and jungle, giving him more space to deal damage and let him take over the game.
He was the current RNG's absolute core. If the team hadn't practiced the mid and jungle system, RNG would have been able to play four-Kings in every game.
Ouze wanted to prove to his teammates today that they could win even if they protected him against four-Kings and one-Kings.
Corporate competition had to be differentiated, and players had to emphasize this point when competing for positions.
If Ouze couldn't guarantee that he could bring more positive results to the Asian Games when he went on the field, why would the team let him play?
From this point of view, Ouze's anxiety today was normal.
Lin Yan and Su Cheng chatted as they ate, and it took them fifteen minutes to fill their stomachs.
He didn't leave the cafeteria directly. Instead, he went to the window to get two dishes and a bowl of rice, and sent them to the training room.
Uzi was still starving. Lin Ran didn't believe that a person of Uzi's size would be able to skip lunch.
This considerate action received high praise from Ouze. Jian Feng immediately forgot about the tragic scene of his Super God Kesha being cut up by Lin Yan an hour ago.
After a short lunch break, everyone returned to the lounge again.
Sure enough, just as Lin Yan thought, Ouze raised his hand to propose a four-Kings in the first practice match.
Abu couldn't make up his mind.
He was nominally the head coach for this Asian Games, but in terms of potential, he wasn't particularly high.
There was no need to talk about the players. YM had won too many championships, and in the LPL, the players' status was not lower than the coaches'. Lin Yan and the others' prestige was much higher than his.
Ouze was also a top celebrity player. With his popularity, Abu couldn't suppress him.
Among the players, only letme had a lower status.
As for the coaches, there was no need to talk about them. White Crescent and Hanyi were both world champions.
The reason why Abu could be the head coach this time was because of his seniority. He also had the honor of being the first IPL 5 champion and the first MSI champion.
There weren't many people that Abu could really control.
For this kind of practice match, he had to discuss with the players.
Facing the ball that Abu kicked over, Lin Yan thought for two seconds. Finally, under Ouze's hopeful gaze, he said, "… I think it's okay. Why don't we try it out and see the effect? It won't waste much time anyway."
He represented the attitude of the four YM players.
Ouze successfully won a tactical tilt.
However, the effect was very average.
As usual, he relied on his own ability and the help of his teammates to successfully suppress Old Thief Sima. He even pushed the opponent's next tower.
However, during this time, The Sh spawned like crazy.
Xiao Tian and Lin Yan frequently went to the bottom lane, so they could only rely on letme.
In the end, Jiang Chenglu farmed 220 times in 20 minutes. Many of them were wild monsters from the Stone Beetle Camp. This made his economy soar.
Two and a half vampires, seeing Uzi is a big move to cover the head and cover the face.
Song Yijin was also very fierce. Lin Yan sacrificed a lot to roam the bottom lane, so the Broiler's development was quite perfect.
In addition, Ning Wang, who was excellent at starting a team battle, only needed to start the team battle and leave the rest to his teammates.
Jiang Chenglu's set of damage almost forced Ouze to flash out. Old Thief Sima was waiting for an opportunity to harvest at the back.
After the two waves of team battles, Old Thief Sima's equipment was immediately replenished, and Ouze started to move on the spot.
Without an advantage in positioning, four players were useless. In the end, Lin Yan and his teammates persevered for 38 minutes but still couldn't escape the fate of being wiped out.
At this point in time, being wiped out could be said to be one wave.
DanshafFaker: [GG]
Lin Yan typed this word on the public chat. Both sides exited the game as usual.
They were playing the mock competition on the Korean server. If they flattened the base and ended the game, they would leave a custom record. If the Korean coach found out, it would be over.
"Wow, The Sh's last flash came into the game. That set of skills' damage is too ridiculous, right?"
Liu Qingsong couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Chenglu's Vampire was indeed good. He grasped the timing of the team battle perfectly. Among the top laners, he was considered to be one of a kind.
"The ADC is really not good now …" Jack had been watching the whole battle. When he saw that the mock competition was over, he said, "No matter how good the archer is, he's just a toy in front of this top laner!"
Ouze took out a napkin and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
With the combination of the ranked and mock competitions, he couldn't accept losing three times in a row.
Abu and the others were also thinking about their next strategy.
