Standing up from the gaming chairs, Team Prime walked slowly towards the lounge. Their steps were heavy and their moods were not relaxed.
This is not an ordinary regular season game, but a knockout round.
If they lose this game, although they will not be directly eliminated, they will still fall into the loser group and use up a crucial "Resurrection Armor".
But judging from their state in the first game, today's Prime team is very problematic. Compared with Prime, which was unbeatable in the regular season, today's Prime team only performed about 70% of its level at most, or even more.
few!
Walking into the Prime team's lounge, head coach Han Meng was quite tolerant of them.
"It doesn't matter, we just lost one game. We still have hope of coming back later, so don't be discouraged," she said with a smile.
"We didn't win any powerful heroes in this game, nor did we use a routine system. The next games will be better." Han Meng said encouragingly.
But this sentence is just a comfort, and of course no one in the Prime team takes it seriously.
Su Zhe took Mengqi, and Lu Ming took Marco Polo. These are T0-level heroes in the current version. It is not easy to get them in a BO5 duel.
After using two strong heroes at once, the Prime team has not yet won the victory. No matter how hard it is to lose in this game, only the optimistic Han Meng can actively comfort his teammates.
But before the team members could speak, Lin Yan stood up first.
"Sister Meng, I have something to say to you."
"Huh? What's wrong, Xiao Yan?" Han Meng was slightly startled, and then he and Lin Yan walked a few steps outside the lounge door.
It seemed that Lin Yan didn't want his teammates to hear what he said, so he wanted to keep it secret.
After leaving the rest of the Prime team, Lin Yan whispered: "Sister Meng, you should have seen my state today. It's a bit not good. I think in the next game, I will... I won't go on.
Bar."
"What?"
Hearing what Lin Yan said, Han Meng was quite shocked.
As the ace jungler of the Prime team and currently the mainstay of the entire team, Lin Yan's role for the Prime team is undoubted. He is the cornerstone of the Prime team's victory.
If he doesn't play, who can lead the Prime team to victory?
Just rely on Changge alone?
This difficulty is a bit too great.
"Xiaoyan, you have to go up." Han Meng frowned.
Lin Yan lowered his head guiltily and said, "I understand, but my condition today is too bad. The first time I was resurrected after being killed, I was already distracted..."
This is true. After Nakolulu was resurrected, Quan Shui hung up for more than ten seconds. This was simply a joke on KPL. Even Sun Shangxiang and Luban No. 7, who were killed by the swordsman of the Tiangong team, looked professional compared to this mistake.
many.
Han Meng knew in his heart that Lin Yan must have been influenced by the previous naval forces to fight like this, otherwise he would never have made such a low-level mistake in his current state.
"Xiaoyan, is it because of the previous live broadcast?"
"Well..." Lin Yan did not deny it, but answered Han Meng sincerely.
"Whenever I make any mistakes on the field, I always feel like I can see the barrage those people send me, and I always feel like they are trying to blame me..." Lin Yan said desperately, "It seems that the audience at the scene is not willing to
It feels like the whole world hates me when I play..."
After hearing these words, Han Meng patted Lin Yan's shoulder distressedly.
Indeed, the feeling of being spurned by countless people and being chased and abused by black fans is really unpleasant.
Just because he wanted to protect his girlfriend, just because he wanted to clarify the truth, he had to suffer such treatment. This is really unfair.
Seeing Lin Yan's current state, Han Meng probably understood.
If he is forced to play, not to mention that the Prime team cannot win the game, I am afraid it will also hurt Lin Yan himself.
"It doesn't matter, Xiaoyan. Since you are not in good condition, let Xiaoya fight for you in the next game." Han Meng said.
"Okay, thank you Sister Meng..." Lin Yan whispered.
"Well..." Han Meng nodded, then walked over and said to everyone: "Lin Yan will take a break for the next game. Xiaoya, you come on."
"Okay, okay!" Xiaoya nodded quickly.
In fact, the teammates of Team Prime are not surprised by Han Meng's decision, because Lin Yan's condition has indeed declined visibly to the naked eye.
Taking a break for the time being may be a best-of-both-worlds strategy for both him and the Prime team.
Now that Lin Yan, an important rhythm point, has been lost, the Prime team's play style will have to undergo a wave of adjustments. In the second round of the game, because the loser chooses a side, the Prime team is eligible to choose a side.
Han Meng did not choose the blue side, but instead chose the red side - the purpose was very clear, she was going to give the Prime team a routine this round.
Soon the game started and the players from both teams returned to the field. Only then did the audience discover that a substitution had occurred on Team Prime's side.
The famous Shadow Demon - Prime. Shadow disappeared and was replaced by Xiaoya, a veteran of the Temple Team. This made many fans puzzled. Why did the main jungler be replaced in such a crucial battle?
Jing Zhe and the others, who were sitting in the middle row of the auditorium, were also extremely surprised.
"Where's the master? Why was the master replaced?"
"Where's Lin Yan? How can we fight if we don't let Lin Yan come here? He can't even beat Royal Soul!"
A Wei frowned and said, "I don't know if it's my misunderstanding, but I always felt that Lin Yan's state in the last round was... very bad."
"It's not an illusion, it's true. Nakolulu hung up for more than ten seconds after she was resurrected. If Lin Yan was in a normal state, he would definitely not do this." Chen Siyu said.
"Did something happen to Lin Yan today?" Guo Hao said worriedly, "Is it a cold or a fever?"
"It's possible." A Wei said, "After all, e-sports players are not immune to diseases..."
Jingzhe said worriedly: "When Master was on the field, Team Prime couldn't beat Royal Soul, and now that Master is no longer on the field...Please, Team Prime won't fall into the loser's bracket, right?"
…
While I was talking, the second round of BP had already begun.
RoyalSoul team on the blue side, Prime team on the red side!
First up are the BAN people.
There is no suspense for the RoyalSoul team. One of the two bans restricted Chang Ge’s Guan Yu, and the other restricted Wang Cai’s Da Qiao.
Except for these two people, there are no restrictions on others because Lin Yan is no longer here.
In the auditorium.
Golden Rose smiled with her teeth exposed.
"Ah haha, Lin Yan was really screwed by me. Team Prime, go to the loser group! Hahahaha..."
The two bans of the Prime team are Marco Polo and Master Luban - they are restricting Dawn, who are also the top star players of the RoyalSoul team.
Then comes the selection of people.
The blue side RoyalSoul team’s first selection.
Both Lan and Jing were released, and the RoyalSoul team also used Jing in the first round. Of course, there was no surprise for them in the second round——
Lan!
"Sneak in the darkness, hunt in the light!"
Killer Whales got the T0 jungler again!
"Sure enough, it's easy for the blue side to take the lead!" said the commentator.
"Dan Lan is a hero who is also easy to control. Team Prime only needs to grab Pangu. But... in the absence of Shadow Demon, will anyone on Team Prime use Pangu?" His partner questioned.
At this moment, Team Prime made a choice.
Han Meng did not rush to choose Pangu, but took the system first.
Changge chose Ma Chao!
Wangcai chose Sun Bin!
Horse core system!
This round is all about Chang Ge! Without Lin Yan in the Prime team, let Chang Ge hold up the sky!
In the auditorium, the audience also cheered when they saw Ma Chao, a long-song performer, come on stage.
"Very good!"
"The captain overtook the horse."
"This game is stable. Changge's Ma Chao is as stable as Guan Yu. Basically, he will win 100%."
However, the RoyalSoul team did not make Lin Yan comfortable - the choice for September in the middle was Zhang Liang, and the choice against Lu Chixiao was Ma Chao's lifelong enemy - Charlotte!
"This Ter is very powerful, Team Prime will be in trouble." The commentator shook his head.
"If Ma Chao chooses first, he will be easily targeted, but if he chooses second, he will be easily banned..." His partner was also speechless.
Afterwards, the Prime team selected a player at the third position and did not take Pangu.
