During the first phase of the Ban/Pick (BP), Tianhuan grabbed a Jungler, Mid-laner, and Marksman, while Jingzhe chose a Mid-laner, Marksman, and Support. In the second phase, Tianhuan targeted the Jungle position by banning two utility junglers in a row; Jingzhe, targeting Qu Jiang's Support pool, sent [Shield of Glory] and [Mechanical Expert] to the ban list.
The lineups for both sides were finally locked in.
Tianhuan centered their composition around the Jungler [Soul Reaper] and Mid-laner [Spirit Butterfly]. With Marksman [Machine Gun Hunter], Support [Holy Paladin], and Top Laner [Black Dragon Knight], they had selected heroes with strong pressure resistance. The Mid and Jungle would control the early game, while the Marksman would scale for the late game.
Jingzhe fielded the [Moonlight Mage] and [Sharpshooter] as their dual carry output. Their Support was [Time Traveler], offering speed boosts and healing. Their Jungler was [Demon Hunter], a utility hero with ranged crowd control, and their Top Laner was [Dark Angel], who also possessed ranged CC capabilities.
Yao Mu analyzed, "Tianhuan is using a 'Tracking Strategy.' They're relying on the Mid-Jungle synergy of [Soul Reaper] and [Spirit Butterfly] to drive the tempo, needing to secure quick kills to accumulate an advantage and snowball the game!"
Brother Dong added, "Jingzhe has a typical POKE composition. Both the Top Laner [Dark Angel] and Jungler [Demon Hunter] have ranged crowd control, and the Support [Time Traveler] can speed them up to disengage. In team fights, opponents can't even touch them while being whittled down. That's the advantage of having long range."
"Little Xing has a strong survival instinct. Since the enemy has so much CC, he simply brought Cleanse to save his life. Lie Yang still took Flash, and Captain Fang's [Moonlight Mage] also took Flash."
"Both sides are ready. Let's enter the first match of Tianhuan vs. Jingzhe!"
The Tracking Strategy wasn't appearing for the first time in the professional league. The core of this strategy lay in the Mid-laner [Spirit Butterfly]'s ultimate, "Spirit Butterfly Tracking," which could reveal the entire map's vision, exposing everyone's location, and allow the user to teleport behind a specific target. No matter how the opponent tried to flee, it was useless—like being tracked from a thousand miles away.
However, this strategy had a major flaw. After [Spirit Butterfly] unleashed a combo to kill someone, they were easily counter-killed. Thus, players who picked this hero in online games were often scolded by teammates for "delivering a free kill from a thousand miles away."
To play the Tracking Strategy well, one must find a Jungler who could keep up with [Spirit Butterfly]'s rhythm. The two had to coordinate kills and cover each other's retreat afterward. Additionally, the other teammates had to hold their lanes and not get crushed; otherwise, no matter how much of an advantage the Mid-Jungle duo built, it would be hard to win if the Top or Bot lanes collapsed.
Tianhuan's coaching staff had carefully deliberated before settling on this lineup. It had performed well in scrims, but whether it would work in a real match depended entirely on Ye Shaoyang's game sense, as he was the one commanding this match.
The game interface loaded.
Ye Shaoyang spoke decisively, "Chi Shu, come with me to invade their Blue. Everyone else, get ready to support from your lanes."
He guessed that Jingzhe would likely target Chi Shu's jungle at the start to suppress his growth. Rather than defending passively, it was better to attack actively.
The two of them flanked through the side brush and started attacking the Blue Buff rapidly.
Old Qin's voice rang out in the comms: "They're invading our Blue too. Three of them."
Old Qin naturally didn't dare to go over for a 1v3; he just checked the vision and slipped away. Ye Shaoyang noticed the opposing Support and Marksman rushing toward the Blue Buff area. He thought for a moment and said, "Little Xing, clear your wave first. Come over when you're Level 2."
Cheng Xing: "Received!"
Jingzhe's Marksman and Support vs. Tianhuan's Mid and Jungle—skills were exchanged in the jungle. Xie Yuan's [Sharpshooter] dealt high damage with a single snipe. Seeing the Blue Buff critically low, Xie Yuan crouched nearby to aim, wanting to steal the buff. Ye Shaoyang quickly sidestepped, using his body to block the bullet.
Chi Shu, acting in perfect sync, used Smite to instantly secure the Blue Buff.
After securing the Blue, Chi Shu quickly retreated to his own jungle. Ye Shaoyang was stunned and detained by the enemy Support. Xie Yuan fired another shot at him, reducing Ye Shaoyang to about 20% health.
At this moment, Fang Zhengqing from the Mid lane also arrived.
Seeing that [Moonlight Mage] was about to enter the battlefield, Ye Shaoyang decisively used Flash to flee. Cheng Xing and Qu Jiang immediately arrived to support. Cheng Xing fired a Q-skill volley to cover Ye Shaoyang's retreat, and Qu Jiang body-blocked Fang Zhengqing's moon blade. Under his teammates' protection, Ye Shaoyang escaped with a sliver of health!
This skirmish in the jungle was played with great detail by both sides, and the support speed was incredibly fast. Chi Shu secured the Blue, but Ye Shaoyang was beaten to critical health and had to recall, losing a wave of minions. He told Chi Shu to take the Mid lane minion wave to minimize the loss.
Yao Mu said, "In this case, Lie Yang loses out quite a bit in the opening. He used his Flash and gave the experience from the first minion wave to Chi Shu. He's only Level 1 now, while the enemy Mid-laner is already Level 2."
Brother Dong countered, "But looking at it the other way, Captain Chi profited massively. After stealing the Blue, he turned around to eat the Mid lane wave, and immediately followed up by clearing his own Red Buff. With no one interfering with his farm, he'll reach Level 6 faster than usual."
Yao Mu thought for a moment and said, "So, Tianhuan's opening strategy is to let the Jungler hit Level 6 first, with the Mid-laner sacrificing some economy? If that's the case, they'll have an advantage when contesting the first Small Dragon!"
Ye Shaoyang's strategy was indeed to prioritize Chi Shu's development first.
Everyone knew they were playing Mid-Jungle synergy this game. It was impossible for both Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shu to farm and level up peacefully; sacrifices had to be made.
Once Chi Shu's jungle was suppressed, it would be hard to find a rhythm. So, they protected Chi Shu at the start; it didn't matter if Ye Shaoyang lost a wave of minions. Ye Shaoyang wasn't afraid of falling behind in farm. Although he returned to the lane a level lower than Fang Zhengqing, his positioning was extremely cautious. He hid after clearing minions, giving Fang Zhengqing no opportunity to solo kill him.
Time passed quickly. Chi Shu was the first in the game to reach Level 6. Ye Shaoyang pinged the Small Dragon pit. Cheng Xing and Qu Jiang immediately went to support, and the three of them worked together to whittle down the dragon.
Jingzhe's Support realized they were taking the dragon and brought Xie Yuan over to contest.
Xie Yuan crouched in the distance to aim his snipe. [Sharpshooter] was the best Marksman for stealing dragons; a single snipe could instantly secure a low-health dragon. However, Tianhuan had long prepared for this move. Qu Jiang's [Holy Paladin] used his body to block the entrance to the pit. Xie Yuan's bullet couldn't bypass Qu Jiang at all.
Chi Shu quickly killed the Small Dragon, giving all Tianhuan members an economic boost.
Yao Mu praised, "Tianhuan's early game tempo is very fast. Jingzhe didn't have time to rotate back for the first dragon fight!"
Brother Dong said, "That's because Yangyang intercepted Jingzhe's support in the Mid lane, preventing their Mid-laner from going over."
The camera cut to the Mid lane, showing a swarm of black butterflies surrounding Fang Zhengqing's [Moonlight Mage]. The 'Fear' crowd control caused by the black butterflies prevented Fang Zhengqing from reaching the dragon pit in time.
Ye Shaoyang knew Chi Shu's rhythm and knew that Fang Zhengqing would head to support immediately. He ambushed Fang Zhengqing on his inevitable path, intercepting him and allowing Chi Shu to smoothly secure the dragon.
Fang Zhengqing helplessly returned to his tower to continue laning against Ye Shaoyang.
He was one level higher than Ye Shaoyang and theoretically should have suppressed him. But the reality was that Ye Shaoyang's positioning was extremely slippery, dodging many of Fang Zhengqing's Q-skills. [Moonlight Mage] was a hero primarily focused on long-range poke; without hard crowd control or burst damage, Fang Zhengqing couldn't solo kill an opponent who simply focused on dodging.
A moment later, Fang Zhengqing warned, "Mid missing."
Xie Yuan immediately retreated a few steps. "Is he coming Bot?"
Li Yunmo said, "I have vision in the Bot river; he should be going Top."
Sure enough, Ye Shaoyang popped up in the Top lane. Old Qin had been suppressed by his opponent, but with Ye Shaoyang's support, the two teamed up to beat Jingzhe's Top Laner back under his tower. At the same time, Ye Shaoyang soaked up experience from a Top lane wave and the river crab.
It didn't matter if he was behind in levels early on; Ye Shaoyang would find every possible way to farm. He could always scrape economy and experience from the map. Ye Shaoyang knew the experience calculations for every minion wave and small monster by heart.
At the same time, Fang Zhengqing arrived at the Bot lane and whispered, "Kill Little Xing."
Jingzhe's Jungler, Mid, Shooter, and Support—four people—gathered rapidly in the Bot lane. Cheng Xing keenly sensed the danger and quickly retreated under the tower with Qu Jiang.
But Jingzhe wasn't afraid of a 4v2 dive. They went straight for the tower dive!
The four of them rushed up quickly. The Jungler [Demon Hunter] stunned Cheng Xing with a long-range control skill. Cheng Xing instantly popped [Cleanse] to run, while Qu Jiang blocked damage for him at the front.
Fang Zhengqing and Xie Yuan unleashed their damage together. The [Moonlight Mage]'s AoE moon blades and the [Sharpshooter]'s long-range snipe combined perfectly, reducing Cheng Xing to critical health in the blink of an eye!
Just when everyone thought Cheng Xing was dead for sure, a swarm of transparent butterflies suddenly appeared above everyone's heads. The butterflies seemed sentient, circling and hovering over them.
Li Yunmo thought, Oh no. He decisively activated [Time Traveler]'s team speed boost, wanting to retreat with his teammates. However, it was too late—
A figure clad in black, the Spirit Butterfly, descended from the sky, appearing directly behind Xie Yuan!
Xie Yuan was hiding in a very safe bush, crouching to aim, intending to finish off Cheng Xing with one shot. Before his bullet could leave the chamber, he was surrounded by black butterflies.
Spirit Butterfly Tracking, Black Butterfly Fear Control, Red Butterfly Burst Damage!
Ye Shaoyang's combo was smooth and flowing. One moment he was grabbing the river crab with Old Qin in the Top lane, and the next second, he teleported to the Bot lane, crippling Xie Yuan with a full combo!
Ye Shaoyang's sudden teleport from Top to Bot caught Jingzhe off guard. What surprised them even more was that after taking the dragon, Chi Shu had actually been lying in wait in the Bot lane the entire time.
The moment Ye Shaoyang struck, Chi Shu immediately followed up with damage.
The hero [Soul Reaper] could not only summon undead souls but also chase down teammates. When moving towards a designated teammate, [Soul Reaper] gained a massive movement speed boost. Ye Shaoyang flew in directly to burst Xie Yuan, and Chi Shu followed Ye Shaoyang to add a final hit. The squishy Marksman was instantly killed by their combined assault!
——First Blood!
——[Tianhuan Shuoyue (Soul Reaper) has killed I Am Very Round (Sharpshooter)]
Chi Shu took First Blood!
In Jingzhe's Bot lane ambush, Cheng Xing was beaten to a sliver of health but didn't die. Instead, Xie Yuan was unexpectedly killed.
Xie Yuan said helplessly, "Lie Yang just hit Level 6."
Fang Zhengqing raised an eyebrow. "He calculated the timing perfectly."
Only a Level 6 [Spirit Butterfly] could learn the ultimate, reveal global vision, and track for kills.
Ye Shaoyang had indeed calculated the time. When Fang Zhengqing went to gank Bot at Level 6, Ye Shaoyang was only Level 5 and a half. After soaking a wave of minions and a river crab Top, he hit exactly Level 6. He suddenly activated his ult to teleport Bot, coordinating with Chi Shu to kill the Marksman, instantly reversing the situation.
It was originally Jingzhe 4v2, bullying Tianhuan's Marksman.
The result? Tianhuan's Mid-lane Demon King suddenly teleported in and counter-killed the opposing Marksman.
Cheng Xing couldn't help but say, "Beautiful work!"
Thunderous applause also erupted at the venue.
Chi Shu greatly appreciated Yangyang's timing and said in a low voice, "Yangyang, I'll help you get Blue."
Ye Shaoyang nodded. "Okay, let's take their Blue."
With Jingzhe's Marksman dead and the Blue Buff in the enemy jungle just respawning, Chi Shu and Ye Shaoyang went to steal it together. Fang Zhengqing wouldn't just watch them steal it; he coordinated with his Jungler to steal Tianhuan's Blue in return.
Yao Mu laughed and said, "The Blue Buffs in this game are constantly being swapped. Both Mid-laners have Blue, so Moonlight Mage's clearing speed will be faster."
Heroes with extremely long range like [Moonlight Mage] were very suited for clearing minions; one Q-skill could clear a wave. After getting the Blue Buff, Fang Zhengqing's clearing speed was noticeably faster than Ye Shaoyang's. After clearing, he immediately went to support Top, working with Jingzhe's Top Laner to beat Old Qin into retreating to base.
Fang Zhengqing spoke in the voice chat: "Enemy Mid's ult is on CD, he can't track for now. Seize the opportunity to speed farm. Give all jungle resources to A-Yuan."
Teammates immediately replied: "Received."
Xie Yuan entered the jungle, taking the Red Buff and all the small monsters' experience. Jingzhe's Marksman, Support, and Jungler grouped up to clear the jungle, then went to the Bot lane to clear minions. This way, Xie Yuan's growth speed accelerated.
In the time it took Cheng Xing to eat one wave of minions, Xie Yuan consumed a minion wave + Red Buff + jungle monsters. With the Jungler and Support protecting his farm, his economy became the highest in the game in the blink of an eye.
Fang Zhengqing glanced at the match time and said, "Mid ult is ready. Watch out."
The hero [Spirit Butterfly] required strong macro sense and rhythm. The ultimate "Spirit Butterfly Tracking" had an initial cooldown of 60 seconds. It revealed global vision and allowed teleportation to a target.
The hardest part of this hero was the timing of the ultimate. It didn't mean you should use it as soon as the cooldown was up. When to ult and which enemy hero to track required careful consideration.
If used poorly, it could cause the team to collapse or result in feeding a kill from across the map.
Ye Shaoyang's ultimate was indeed ready, but he wasn't in a hurry to use it.
He had to check Chi Shu's position and his teammates' status, and also guess the opponent's current situation—either don't teleport, or if you teleport, you must secure a kill. This was the key to the Tracking Strategy.
Ye Shaoyang patiently laned against Fang Zhengqing.
Another wave of minions arrived. Fang Zhengqing cleared them with a Q-skill and quickly left the Mid lane.
Ye Shaoyang observed the mini-map and said decisively, "Catch Fang Fang."
At this moment, Chi Shu had just finished clearing a round of jungle resources and was near the Mid lane, able to keep up with Ye Shaoyang's rhythm at the fastest speed. Ye Shaoyang activated his ult directly. A swarm of transparent butterflies appeared above everyone's heads, clearly reporting the opponents' positions to Ye Shaoyang.
Fang Zhengqing was heading Top to support. The Marksman, Support, and Jungler were grouped in the jungle farming, and the Top Laner was engaging in close combat with Old Qin, waiting for Fang Zhengqing to arrive to tower dive Old Qin.
Unfortunately, Fang Zhengqing couldn't make it.
The moment Fang Zhengqing saw the butterflies appear above his head, he realized the enemy might be coming for him and decisively Flashed into his tower! But Ye Shaoyang was stubborn as always; he teleported directly under the enemy tower, tanking the tower shots while delivering a full combo to cripple Fang Zhengqing.
Chi Shu's [Soul Reaper] followed up immediately, taking Fang Zhengqing's head with a simple Q-skill.
——[I Am Very Square (Moonlight Mage) has killed Tianhuan Lie Yang (Spirit Butterfly)]
——[Tianhuan Shuoyue (Soul Reaper) has killed I Am Very Square (Moonlight Mage)]!
Fang Zhengqing: "…"
Was Ye Shaoyang determined to trade lives with him even if he died?
Tower diving, a life for a life—did he have to play so hard?
Seeing this, Yao Mu couldn't help but say, "Yangyang's playstyle is indeed aggressive! Because [Soul Reaper] relies on kills to stack his Spirit Buff, as long as they get a kill, it's not a loss."
Brother Dong praised, "Exactly. Lie Yang's suicide attack traded for the enemy Mid-laner. He got an assist, his teammate got a kill, and they got a Spirit stack. It's definitely worth it."
For Soul Reaper, the higher the Spirit stacks, the higher the damage.
As long as an opponent was killed by him (or with his participation), he could accumulate spirits.
Ye Shaoyang's operation clearly told Fang Zhengqing: Not only do I want to kill you, but I can also kill myself.
Fang Zhengqing really wanted to ask, "Why don't you just ascend to heaven?"
In the livestream room, after hearing Yao Mu and Brother Dong's explanation, the audience finally understood—
[So Yangyang is actually a suicidal tool-man this game?]
[This is called top-tier tool-man gameplay—I kill myself to stack buffs for my teammate.]
[To stack buffs for Captain Chi, Yangyang says: I can feed~]
[With a teammate like this, Captain Chi is too lucky, right?]
Chi Shu was indeed very lucky. With Ye Shaoyang's help, he had already completed a three-item set. After Ye Shaoyang died, he even gave the Mid lane minion wave to him. Chi Shu's economy surpassed Xie Yuan's, becoming the highest in the game.
Fang Zhengqing frowned. "We can't let them keep killing like this. A-Yuan, are you ready to come out?"
Xie Yuan said, "Need 300 more gold for the Crit Blade."
Fang Zhengqing thought for a moment and said, "Group Mid and force a push. Be careful, don't give any more kills to Soul Reaper."
Xie Yuan cleared a wave in the Bot lane, finished his core item, and gathered with his teammates in the Mid lane.
Tianhuan had to come to the Mid lane to defend.
Fang Zhengqing and Xie Yuan had grown up together, after all, and possessed over a decade of tacit understanding. Their skill activation was synchronized. Almost the moment Fang Zhengqing's ultimate barrage started, Xie Yuan was already crouched in position. A snipe threaded through the gap between Qu Jiang and Old Qin, accurately hitting Cheng Xing in the back row!
Before the team fight even started, the back row was crippled. This was the annoying part of a POKE lineup.
Qu Jiang and Old Qin blocked bullets in the front, Cheng Xing recalled with critical health, and Ye Shaoyang's ult was on cooldown. Jingzhe's 5-man squad forced the push. With Li Yunmo activating speed boost, they forcefully took down the outer Mid tower and reclaimed the rhythm.
Yao Mu lamented, "Jingzhe's team fighting is still very strong, especially the coordination of the dual carries. With [Moonlight Mage]'s ult barrage and [Sharpshooter]'s long-range sniping, Tianhuan has almost nowhere to hide and is being worn down from a distance."
Brother Dong said, "In a 5v5 team fight, Jingzhe has the range advantage, true. But Tianhuan has a huge advantage in small skirmishes. It depends on whether Lie Yang can seize another opportunity!"
Once the Mid tower fell, the jungle became vulnerable.
Jingzhe was, after all, a strong team that had made it to the World Tournament multiple times. Their ability to snowball was top-tier. After regaining the tempo, they began to invade the jungle as a 5-man group. On the surface, Tianhuan seemed to have fallen into a disadvantage.
But Ye Shaoyang wasn't anxious. His mind was calculating rapidly. Barring any accidents, the Red Buff in the enemy jungle was about to respawn. Xie Yuan would definitely go take Red. Currently, Jingzhe had pushed down Tianhuan's outer Mid tower, making their own jungle very safe. Therefore, Xie Yuan wouldn't need to bring too many bodyguards—at most, just the support.
Ye Shaoyang pinged a spot on the map and said to Chi Shu, "Catch Xie Yuan."
Chi Shu: "Understood."
The familiar scout butterflies appeared above Jingzhe's heads once again.
No one knew where Ye Shaoyang would fly.
1 out of 5—who would the Great Demon King choose?
Xie Yuan thought to himself, He should be catching the isolated Fang Zhengqing, right?
At this time, Fang Zhengqing was ambushing in the Mid lane brush, with not a single teammate beside him.
Fang Zhengqing also thought Ye Shaoyang would join forces with Chi Shu to dive him, and he was already prepared to run. However, Ye Shaoyang bypassed Fang Zhengqing and flew all the way to Xie Yuan's head!
The area-of-effect Fear caused by the black butterflies instantly rooted Xie Yuan and Li Yunmo.
Ye Shaoyang unleashed a combo to cripple Xie Yuan, and Chi Shu arrived at top speed to harvest Xie Yuan's head.
Xie Yuan and Li Yunmo: "…"
Chasing someone that far… is that scientifically possible for you two?
After the kill, Chi Shu and Ye Shaoyang quickly retreated.
Fang Zhengqing naturally wouldn't sit idly by. He flanked from the side with his Top Laner. Seeing Chi Shu and Ye Shaoyang about to be surrounded, Ye Shaoyang said decisively, "Run quickly, sell me, sell me!"
Chi Shu: "…"
Yangyang was the commander; Chi Shu had to obey orders.
So Chi Shu decisively ran away, and Ye Shaoyang was killed once again.
The audience in the livestream room was speechless—
[The self-cultivation of Tool-Yang: Let my teammate go, come kill me!]
[If you ask, it's stacking souls. Raising a Gu king.]
[Yangyang says: Captain Chi can't die, I can die whenever~]
A moment later, Ye Shaoyang revived. Not long after, his ult was ready again. He activated it halfway, saw the enemy movement, and decisively flew to catch Jingzhe's Top Laner: "Top lane!"
Chi Shu: "Understood."
Descending from the sky, the Spirit Butterfly crippled Jingzhe's Top Laner with a combo. Chi Shu appeared and collected the head.
Chi Shu was being fed into a Boss with the most luxurious equipment in the game by Ye Shaoyang.
Fang Zhengqing was also speechless about this playstyle. He didn't expect Tianhuan's Tracking Strategy to be so unconventional. The Mid-laner was suicide-trading to stack buffs for the Jungler, existing only as the Jungler's "eyes."
Ye Shaoyang's build this game was also bizarre. He stacked Cooldown Reduction to the max 40%. His ultimate, originally on a 60-second cooldown, dropped to 36 seconds in the mid-to-late game. That was equivalent to a tracking capability every half minute.
Sometimes, he ulted and teleported for a sneak attack to help Chi Shu get kills.
Other times, he ulted but didn't teleport; he just checked where Jingzhe's players were.
The butterfly encirclement every half minute annoyed the Jingzhe players to no end. Even the caster Yao Mu couldn't help but say, "This tests their mental state too much! After the Spirit Butterflies reveal vision, will he teleport or not? Where will he teleport to? It's like a lottery!"
Brother Dong laughed. "Lie Yang is just unpredictable."
Guess where I'm teleporting this time? Guess where Chi Shu is?
Jingzhe couldn't see Tianhuan's positions, but Tianhuan had Ye Shaoyang as their "eyes," knowing their movements like the back of their hands. Even a top-tier support like Li Yunmo felt helpless about this.
After the match dragged past 20 minutes, Jingzhe began to group up and push towers frantically to avoid being caught out alone.
At this time, they discovered another problem—everyone's attention had been on Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shu, and no one had bothered with Little Xing!
Little Xing had farmed very well. [Machine Gun Hunter] cleared minions fast. When Jingzhe wanted to force a push, the minion waves were repeatedly cleared by Little Xing, causing a stalemate.
Jingzhe had no choice but to start the Big Dragon (Baron).
However, just as Jingzhe set up their formation near the dragon pit, the familiar butterflies appeared again.
Scout butterflies could see the opponent's vision.
Ye Shaoyang ulted, quickly identified the opponents' positioning, and then teleported directly into the back row to insta-kill Xie Yuan!
Jingzhe had been prepared for this move. Starting the dragon was actually a feint, just to lure Tianhuan over. The Top Laner [Dark Angel] decisively CC'd Ye Shaoyang, and Fang Zhengqing quickly burst down Lie Yang!
Immediately following that, Tianhuan's main force arrived. Old Qin jumped into the crowd with [Dragon's Roar], Qu Jiang charged in with his Paladin shield up, and Cheng Xing dealt insane damage from a distance.
Chi Shu seized the opportunity, cutting in from the best flanking angle, and one-shot Fang Zhengqing with a single blade.
Black souls followed [Soul Reaper], looking like a host of minions.
At this point, Chi Shu had completed his 6-item "Godly" build with maxed-out Crit. One slash, one squishy!
——[Tianhuan Shuoyue (Soul Reaper) has killed I Am Very Round (Sharpshooter)], Double Kill!
——[Tianhuan Shuoyue (Soul Reaper) has killed One Knife (Demon Hunter)], Triple Kill!
Clad in black, surrounded by countless "undead souls," Chi Shu looked like a devil from the depths of hell. Nothing was left alive under his butcher's knife!
Aside from Jingzhe's Support and Top Laner who split up and ran away, the Jungler, Mid, and Shooter were all dead.
Ye Shaoyang praised, "Beautiful!"
Chi Shu curled the corners of his mouth slightly, started taking the Big Dragon, and counter-pushed with the Dragon Buff.
The resurrection timers for Jingzhe's three players were too long. Tianhuan pushed through three inhibitors in a row, and the crystal nexus couldn't be defended.
Ye Shaoyang took his hands off the keyboard, feeling very gratified in his heart.
He knew Chi Shu wouldn't let him down. He spent so much time in the early game feeding Chi Shu just so Chi Shu could end the game in one team fight.
He believed Chi Shu could do it.
In the final team fight, Ye Shaoyang ulted and teleported in just to help Chi Shu see the exact positions of the five opponents, allowing Chi Shu to determine the best angle and timing for entry, and incidentally, to bait out the opponents' crowd control skills.
——Lie Yang was the eyes through which Shuoyue viewed the whole situation.
——Shuoyue was the weapon with which Lie Yang reaped the battlefield!
The tacit understanding between the two was like one person fighting.
Only with absolute trust in each other could they pull off such a high-difficulty Tracking Strategy linkage!
Even Yao Mu said excitedly, "Lie Yang paves the way, Shuoyue does the killing. Their coordination is absolutely incredible! Let's give our applause to Tianhuan. Congratulations to Tianhuan for taking the first game!"
