Glory [e-sports] - Chapter 245.1

Support Close?

Tang Chen was stunned for a moment, but a stream of heat soon poured out of his heart, and he offered up his own services. “I-I can tell you…” At the time, Brother Tang had still been part of the younger generation. Although he was brave, he was still nervous.

Yuan Ze squinted at him. “Are you going to teach me?”

Tang Chen: “……”

Yuan Ze: “Wake up a bit. I taught you this talent.”

Brother Tang woke up.

The space-time knight had indeed been something that Yuan Ze had taught Tang Chen. A professional player picking up a talent wasn’t just limited to simply understanding its skills and moves. Many other aspects also had to be considered, such as game awareness, line-up matching, early and late stage plans, and so on.

Although not every talent had its own line-up system, it was very important for a qualified player to be able to distinguish the differences between each talent within the same profession.

There were many differences involved even for the top lane. Even if they were both DPS type talents, there would still be a slight difference. Only by grasping the subtleties of each talent would they be able to stand out from other experts among the crowd.

Tang Chen’s space-time knight was played well and he’d trained it a lot; Yuan Ze had almost never played the space-time knight and hadn’t trained with it.

But the latter player was really better than the former.

Yuan Ze started complaining about it as soon as he picked it up. “Can this kind of damage do anything except tickle other players?”

“This basic attack – is it a shoulder and neck massage?”

“This control – the range marker is so wide, but it’s so slow to start up. Only the blind can’t escape it, right?”

The hero he was best at was being disdained like this. Tang Chen: “……”

He wanted to argue, but couldn’t figure out where to start.

Although these words were ugly, they were reasonable and made sense coming from Yuan Ze’s mouth.

The space-time knight’s damage was really inferior to that of DPS talents like the berserker warrior and the blood warrior. The damage from its basic attack couldn’t be compared with the death knight daddy who could deal 3800 damage with a strengthened critical hit, and as for its control skill…

Brother Tang had also complained about it before. The range marker was too large, and it took almost 0.2 seconds to start up. How blind would their opponent have to be to miss it?

Casual players’ reaction here: Offence taken!

However, the space-time knight’s biggest bug was his ultimate move. As long as the space-time knight had its ultimate move mechanism, then it was absolutely valuable.

Yuan Ze cursed the space knight from head to tail, but he didn’t mention the ultimate move at all.

Strong was strong. If it was used well, then it could reverse heaven and earth. This was also why he was training with the talent.

Later on, the Team of Gods fell apart. Let alone being teammates; they weren’t even in the same competition zone. Yuan Ze’s space knight naturally never had an opportunity to be taken out and used.

And it was also later that Tang Chen used the space knight to support Close again and again. Whenever he tried to turn the tide and avoid defeat, he would think to himself, “If it was Yuan Ze using the space-time knight, how would he do it?”

Unfortunately, this was a mystery that was never solved.

No one would ever know how far Close could’ve gone with Yuan Ze’s space-time knight.

No one would ever know whether Yuan Ze’s space-time knight would be able to let Close return to the state he was in two seconds ago after brushing out nine light arcs, so that he could brush out another set.

And no one would ever know whether Yuan Ze had wanted to break the Team of Gods taboo––accompanying Close to the doubles competition.

The space-time knight could reverse time.

But Yuan Ze couldn’t.

When hearing that he wanted to take the space knight, the most excited one was Old G. “Ah! What a pity, FTW banned the shadow thief QAQ!”

He could even convey an expression pack when speaking, really worthy of being Old G, a little language genius.

In full-game BP mode, any talent that had been used before couldn’t be used again, and any talent that was banned couldn’t be banned again.

Before the start of a new match, the system would provide BP data for the previous match, and these talents couldn’t be selected for the next match.

However, the battle of freedom was a special case and wasn’t included in this.

Although Old G had used the shadow thief, he’d used it during the battle of freedom and it didn’t count. It was just that FTW had banned it for this match, and from how regretful he seemed, it was evident that he had a routine with Yuan Ze’s space knight.

Yuan Ze: “Take the berserker thief first.”

At present, the berserker thief was indisputably one of the strongest jungler talents. They had first pick in this match and could snatch it up first. At the very least, they wouldn’t lose out in the jungler position.

The coach thought that way too, but he was also worried. “When it comes to DPS…”

Reasonably speaking, DPS should come from the mid-lane and bottom lane, and at most, the jungler would supplement some damage, but in L&P, Yuan Ze held up half the heavens. Although he was on the top lane, he was still an important DPS dealer. If he played the space-time knight, then there wouldn’t be enough DPS, and secondly, it wouldn’t be easy for him to cut to the back row. It would make things quite difficult.

VIVI muttered, “I’ll take the demonic mage.”

This baby-faced, smiling tiger’s voice was very low. It was enough to show how angry President V was about being bullied by Little Ning in the last match.

The back waves beat down the front waves, and the front waves had gotten very angry!

If he didn’t mess with him in this game, then granny gray’s tail would fly all the way up to the heavens.

The coach thought about it. “Okay.”

AA also took a talent that had strong DPS in the late stages. L&P was using a standard Glory line-up this time, but it wasn’t their own regular line-up.

After the BP ended, the commentators and audience were surprised to see the results of the BP.

Yuan Ze was using the space-time knight?

What kind of routine was this!

The last person to pick in L&P took the space knight. At that moment, everyone thought, “Mo should be using the space knight to play support. Interesting, interesting.”

Very quickly, it turned to–– “That’s not right! there’s already a holy priest in the line-up…”

So then–– “Holy shit, is Scum Man Yuan using the space-time knight!”

The scrolling comments exploded. Some were confused, some curious, but most of them were quietly happy. Of course, there were also haters and trolls who tried to tilt the atmosphere with dark self-indulgence.

“How much money did FTW give? I’ll pay double to buy L&P. Can’t they play the game properly!”

“What kind of under the table deal is this? L&P is clearly just taking it easy; can’t they be a bit less shameless!”

The conversation in FTW’s team chat was also dumbfounded.

Wei Xiao: “The old bandit has another trick!”

Ning Zhehan: “Has Captain Yuan used this before during training matches?”

Bai Caicai: “L&P actually knows how to double support…”

Only Lu Feng and Chen Feng remained silent.

Lu Feng would remain silent even if the sky was about to collapse. Oh, except for when he was dealing with Wei Little Xiao, who could be worse than the sky collapsing when he started messing around.

Chen Feng was silent because he felt like his heart had been stabbed with a knife.

He had a close relationship with Tang Chen, especially during those most difficult years. They’d supported each other and comforted each other, forcibly holding on and toughing it out.

Looking at the empty FTW and the lonely Close, the passionate, hot-headed Chen Feng had cursed the stupid management to death. He didn’t feel satisfied with just scolding them and had continued on to curse the guys who’d left. Yuan Ze, as the one with the snarkiest mouth, had been hit the hardest.

At first, Tang Chen hadn’t said anything. He felt that saying anything would be useless and would only increase the sadness he felt. However, he couldn’t hold back when he heard Chen Feng scold Yuan Ze like this, so he’d spoken up––

He’d heard that Yuan Ze had been secretly practicing the space knight.

He’d heard that Yuan Ze had wanted to cooperate with Close.

He’d heard that Yuan Ze may have wanted to play doubles…

Chen Feng was so distressed that he was all a mess.

“Damn it.”

It wasn’t clear who he was cursing this time.

At this time, when Chen Feng saw Yuan Ze’s space-time knight, the feeling of bitterness in his heart was almost the same as being poured a bowl of bitter melon juice.

The talent he’d practiced in order to cooperate with Close was now on the other side across from them.

The tip of his tongue tasted f*cking bitter.

Of course, Chen Feng wouldn’t say anything about it at this time, even if he heard Wei Xiao’s next sentence. “Teacher Yuan has a real true love relationship with Old G, hey?”

Such a powerful man had actually taken a functional support for the top lane. Not only was he putting his trust in the jungler, he was also entrusting him with his dignity.

The dignity of victory.

Chen Feng kept silent.

He couldn’t answer, couldn’t explain, and couldn’t speak.

As of now, words were pale and powerless, and they could only stride forward.

Winning the game was their only option.

The line-up on FTW’s side was more conventional. Close had taken the blood warrior, while Wei Xiao was using the immortal thief. Little Ning looked at his own jumping and bouncing fire mage and felt a little flustered. “I feel like I’m going to get screwed over by the demonic mage.”

Bai Caicai: “……”

His comments were changing color from proximity to Wei Xiao! Little Ning, don’t forget your own ID!

From the perspective of their line-ups, FTW seemed to have a more dominant start in this game. Their line-up was commendable in all aspects, and there was nothing unexpected.

Could it be that FTW was going to get a 2:0 score?

Could it be that these two teams had really done a XX under the table deal?

Could it be that L&P was really going to be flamed like dogs back in North America?

Of course not.

At the start, L&P didn’t hesitate to invade the other side’s jungle zone, heading straight into FTW’s top jungler zone.

Wei Xiao couldn’t see anything and his teammates hadn’t even reached their lanes yet, but he could sense that something was off. “Captain!”

Lu Feng glanced at the minimap and said, “Hit the wolf creep first.”

Wei Xiao: “Okay!”

If the top lane went into the other side’s jungle, then the wolf creep was the one that was particularly easy to snatch away.

The blue buff had a lot of health, and if they wanted to quietly break the other side’s rhythm, then the wolf creep was a good choice.

Lu Feng’s judgement was based on the fact that Yuan Ze’s space knight only had average combat capability in the early stages. If he went into the other side’s jungle, they likely wouldn’t be greedy and go for a buff daddy.

Close had indeed been right.

Wei Xiao killed a wolf creep, and when he was attacking the remaining two, the other side exposed themselves. The berserker thief and space knight had arrived…

Close sent out a blood spike. From the sound of the effects, it had hit!

The audience who had god’s perspective could see it clearly. “It hit, it hit! There’s a blood seal hanging over Yuan Ze’s skull!”

“Hit him, hit him, Close, kill him!”

The trolls continued to mess with the world. “Look, I already said there was an under the table transaction. Yuan Ze’s clearly just acting. Does he want to enter the entertainment industry?”

Close had indeed hit the space-time knight with his blood spike, and there was a blood mark hanging over him.

After getting caught by the blood mark, the blood warrior’s continued attacks would cause sustained loss of health. This was the start to the blood warrior’s combo. Of course, the blood warrior was still level one, so there was no combo even if he’d wanted to continue.

Yuan Ze wasn’t flustered or in a hurry. He sported the mark over his head and continued walking forward, showing no intention to retreat at all.

Old G was very moved. “Captain~~~” His captain was very kind, helping him block out the wind, rain, and any blood marks as well.

Yuan Ze’s reply was ruthless. “Get lost.”

If you don’t have a crisp, young voice, then don’t f*cking use this kind of cavity inducing tone, okay? Wait… what young voice? F*ck!

Since they’d already exposed themselves, then there was no need to try and sneak attack the wolf creep. Gary went straight for the blue daddy with his scythe in hand.

How could Wei Xiao let him steal the blue buff?

As everyone knew, the immortal thief was like an immortal when they had mana, and they turned into a salted fish without mana. Wei Xiao had no plans to be a salted fish vegetable, so how could he let other people get his blue buff?

So, did they start fighting?

They started fighting!

L&P had lost the first match and had taken such a surprising line-up in the second match, but they seemed to be braver than before.
