The top four match came as expected.
LGW and the Phantom Team held hands together under the brilliant lights of the stage. Xue Lan looked at Meng Weiran in front of him and said, "Please give me your guidance."
"Why are you more nervous than Yi Yu?" Meng Weiran looked at Xue Lan who seemed a little nervous: "Whether we win or lose this game, I believe we will meet again in the international arena."
During the few months of getting along in the youth training camp, although Meng Weiran didn't talk much, to Xue Lan, he was one of his few good friends, just like Su Yiyu.
Xue Lan curved his eyes upon hearing this and held his hand tighter: "Old teammates, you guys should also do your best."
After this, Xue Lan felt much more at ease.
Meng Weiran is calm and open-minded. The teammates he once trusted are now his respected opponents.
There is no need for them to say much. The most important thing is to give their best and take the game seriously, which is the greatest respect for themselves and their opponents.
Amidst the screams and shouts, the commentator's passionate voice spread to every corner of the stadium -
"Welcome everyone to the first match of the 'Dawn of Doom' domestic league's top four to two!"
"The two teams in this match are the dark horse Phantom Team that has emerged from the siege this season, and our most anticipated championship candidate team - LGW!!"
The arena was filled with shouts of "lgw", "exist", and "reset". After the commentator warmed up the audience and briefly introduced the two teams, the game officially began.
The difference between the finals and the previous games is that the championship and third place matches were changed from BO3 to BO5, and the first game of all matches was fixed on the same map.
Sea transport ship.
The sea transport ship in team mode is different from other maps. It is a special map for the domestic league finals. Victory is not achieved by capturing the opponent's base, but by whichever side occupies the deck first.
At the beginning of the game, both sides are teleported to the bottom cabin. They must capture the deck together through the nine exits on the bottom cabin, the three exits on the next level, and the one exit on the top deck.
To capture the deck, you need 1/2 of the key dropped by the opponent's team member after his death, so that you can open the cab and complete the capture.
After the game starts, each side chooses one person to carry the "key" and then walks out of the lower cabin to the deck.
"It's a coincidence that the captains of these two teams are all elite players trained in the same youth training camp. Moreover, within the youth training camp, exist, reset, weiran and yiyu are all from the same temporary team in the youth training camp!"
"They are also the best students. What kind of surprises will these four veteran players bring us in this game?"
"Exist has brought us so many surprises this year. He will bring about a craze for shield chips among all assaulters. The game even nerfed the shield chip again because of his amazing operation!"
"In this competition, we are still continuing the unweakened version of the shield chip. Now you can see that all the attackers on the field are carrying shield chips. A game with six shield chips is now common in many games. In this game, let us look forward to what kind of surprises the originator of the shield flow, exist, can bring us..."
Before the commentator could finish his words, another commentator beside him pulled his sleeve and pointed at the broadcast screen with a surprised look.
In the opened detailed page, Xue Lan's skills were flash and invisibility!
"What!?"
The commentator exclaimed.
He seemed as if he couldn't believe his eyes. He rubbed his eyes in confusion and looked at the screen again.
That's right.
Everyone's eyes followed the host's gaze and fell on Xue Lan's skill carrying ability. Some of them couldn't believe their eyes.
Xue Lan really didn't carry a shield chip.
The skills he carries are indeed the "Flash" and "Invisibility" that were popular some time ago.
"The shield chip in the current game server version is extremely useful for dealing with consecutive attacks. Since it has not been weakened yet, there is no need to not bring the shield chip!"
"Damn it, existing like this will only waste all the original advantages!"
The audience and several commentators were obviously not happy with Xue Lan's carrying skills, but they did not dwell on it, because after a little sigh, they found that the two teams actually dispersed their actions at the same time, one part went to the deck as quickly as possible, while the other part cleared monsters while moving towards the opponent's area.
Su Yiyu from the Phantom Team walked up quickly with a sniper teammate, while LGW and Zhou Xinqing, Lu You and Duan Wenzheng ran to the deck together.
The commentator came to this point and explained to everyone:
"This map is different from other maps. The key to victory lies in two points. The first is to obtain the key from the opponent, and the second is to protect your key, because two keys are needed to open the captain's room at the same time."
"Now both teams have chosen a more conservative play style. Some team members will kill monsters and keep the keys safe, waiting for an opportunity to seize the opponent's keys. The other team members will take the lead in occupying the deck to ensure that their teammates can provide support and prevent the opponent from taking over the captain's room with two keys."
The commentator confidently looked at the screen, but was shocked to see something else -
Just as he expected, the Phantom Team had left the team key on Meng Weiran who was slowly clearing monsters. However, Xue Lan and the substitute player who stayed in the cabin to search for the enemy did not have the key!
Everyone then turned their gaze back to the other side and found the key on Zhou Xinqing's body.
"..." The commentator was a little confused about LGW's playing style.
"This is not a bad way to play. We usually divide the lower part of the map into the key battlefield and the upper part of the deck into the territory battlefield. In fact, it is not a bad idea to use the lower part to seize the key and the upper part to fight for the plywood territory. However, this way, the pressure on the three people in the upper part will be relatively heavier."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the two teams met at the entrance near the deck.
"We can see that LGW has left three people on the deck. They must be planning to clear out the three opponents in the first room and occupy the deck passage!"
Under the commentator's confident analysis, everyone noticed that the three-man LGW split into two groups again. Zhou Xingqing and Lu You rushed towards Su Yiyu and the other person who arrived a step later, while Duan Wenzheng took advantage of the chaos to board the deck under their cover.
"… "
"Reset is a sniper, and his teammates protect him and find a good hiding place first. This is also a key to victory." The predicted first wave of team battles did not happen. The commentator cleared his throat awkwardly: "In the next wave, as long as they lead Yiyu and the other two to the splint, everything will be easy to solve."
But before he finished his words, he noticed that Zhou Yuqing and Lu You, who were tactically holding back Su Yiyu just a second ago, were actually starting to retreat tactically.
"… "
The commentator silently watched this strange scene at the deck passage, and all the words he wanted to say were choked in his mouth.
He didn't understand at all that if Duan Wenzhen didn't go to the higher ground and went directly down, they, with an assaulter, a sniper and a medic, would be able to defeat the other side.
"The key."
Another commentator's words suddenly enlightened him, and he realized: "If both sides force a fight, they may not be able to take out both opponents. If the two opponents really want to concentrate their firepower to force a substitution... the one who is most likely to be replaced is actually the scalpel."
At that time, Duan Wenzhen was at a high point. Unless both of them were taken away, it would be extremely difficult to get the key back.
LGW also chose to keep the key on Zhou Xingqing's body.
Several commentators still seemed to have doubts about LGW's layout, but after all, the sea transport ship was not a map that relied solely on guns to solve problems. Both sides had to guess where the other side's keys were stored, so they did not say much under such doubts.
As fierce gunfire broke out again in the lower cabin, the director's camera shifted to the perspective of Xue Lan and Meng Weiran.
Meng Weiran reacted quickly when he heard Su Yiyu reveal that there were three people on the other side. He did not intend to take advantage of the numbers and miss the opportunity, so he immediately headed towards Xue Lan's direction with his three teammates.
The two groups of people met in the cabin on the second floor below ground.
However, under the strong pressure from the three men, Xue Lan and another teammate did not show any fear at all, and were actually ready to face them head-on with guns.
But just when the two sides were in a proper conflict, Zhou Xinqing and Lu You, who were in a tug of war under the deck, retreated at the same time, along the passage behind them, intending to meet Xue Lan who was downstairs.
"I'll go down and help you!"
Seeing this, Su Yiyu hurriedly wanted to take his teammates to provide support. Meng Weiran frowned and looked at Xue Lan who was exchanging fire with him.
Xue Lan's state is too radical.
They were teammates in the youth training camp. Based on his understanding of Xue Lan, he didn't seem to be defending or plundering at the moment, but rather wanted to snatch the key from him in a hurry.
The most crucial factor in winning the final map, Sea Transport Ship, is not the number of kills or the protection of the base, but the key.
It’s about guessing where the other person’s keys are.
As long as you get two keys, you can enter the captain's room and win.
If the key is not with Xue Lan.
The outline of the entire transport ship quickly emerged in Meng Weiran's mind, from the five of them in the cabin on the second floor below ground, to Su Yiyu and the other four on the first floor below ground, and to Duan Wenzheng who had already boarded the deck...
Meng Weiran remained silent, and Su Yiyu hurriedly tried to chase Zhou Qing down the cabin.
"Don't come down." At this moment, Meng Weiran suddenly said firmly: "You two rush to the deck."
Su Yiyu was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Meng Weiran's idea. He immediately signaled the sniper who was traveling with him to rush to the deck together with him.
Meng Weiran deduced that the key was not in the hands of Xue Lan and the others, but in the hands of Duan Wenzheng who had already boarded the deck.
They were soon back in the passage leading to the deck.
Su Yiyu raised his head and looked towards the passage above his head.
At this moment, Duan Wenzheng had already set up his gun at the high point of the deck. Once they stepped onto the deck, they would instantly expose themselves to Duan Wenzheng's gun.
This scene seemed familiar. Su Yiyu paused for a moment, whispered a word to his teammates beside him, took out the smoke bomb and quickly climbed up to the entrance of the passage.
Smoke bombs streaked across the entrance to the passage, spreading a layer of disorienting smoke on the deck.
The next moment, the two rushed out of the smoke together and rushed towards the nearest shelter on one side.
At the same time, on the high point of the deck, a bullet shot out from the dark muzzle and flew straight towards the figure surrounded by smoke!
