Chapter 242.1: I couldnt deal DPS. How could we win? (2/2)
They weren’t up against IN, but L&P.
L&P was a steel blade and was definitely unafraid of hitting back.
The soul warlock line-up was essentially one where they fought everywhere over the map, however L&P was equally eager to fight with their opponents from beginning to end.
When it came to fighting, they weren’t afraid of any team in Glory.
In the global finals last year, Y1 had been able to win that last game due to Yan Jiang’s precise, computer-like commands.
And what was the core tenet of Yan Jiang’s command?
––Avoid head-on conflict and slowly nibble away at L&P’s flanks.
That game had left people’s hearts hanging in fright, and watching it had made their scalps feel numb.
L&P fans had been so angry that their liver and lungs were about to burst, and they’d cursed Y1 for a full three months.
Y1’s fans had also been terrified. How f*cking good did they have to be at fighting to force Yan Jiang to have to concentrate so much?
Therefore, it was very likely that L&P would destroy FTW’s soul warlock system.
It wasn’t that FTW couldn’t fight. From the moment Wei Xiao joined the team, FTW had already been destined to become a ‘lunatic’ team. If they could have a fight, then they would never waste time with words. If there was no fight to be had, then they would go find one!
If FTW wanted to win against L&P, they had to fight hard, and it would be a competition to see who could fight better.
However, that didn’t mean that they could be reckless.
The soul warlock line-up’s weakness prior to reaching level six was too big. Brother Cai could cope with an ordinary jungler, but he would simply explode on the spot if he went up against Old G.
If their jungle zone was completely occupied prior to reaching level six, then it would be too difficult for them to regain their rhythm after level six.
Especially when they were up against Gary…
It would be the equivalent of having Little Lunatic Wei go up against him in solo with only half of his health.
The two of them were already evenly matched. How could they fight if he sacrificed half his health before they even started?
Besides…
The soul warlock line-up was FTW’s killer trump card. It might not work against L&P, but it may be effective against c-position cores like EVE and Pro.
If they took it out now and let Yuan Ze and Old G beat it up until it collapsed into pieces, would they be able to still play out the same effect of the soul warlock against EVE and Pro even if they were lucky enough to make it into the semi-finals?
The pros and cons were right in front of their eyes.
It was obvious how they should balance things out.
Using the soul warlock against L&P would gain them nothing except pleasing the audience.
So… Chen Feng looked at Lu Feng. “Double thief.”
Lu Feng nodded.
The line-up for their battle of freedom was decided!
The double thief system was another one of FTW’s primary line-ups. Although it didn’t have the same element of surprise as the soul warlock and couldn’t completely unleash Little Lunatic Wei’s strength, FTW had enough power to compete with L&P in the early, mid, and late stages!
Close vs Marshal.
Quiet vs Gary.
The global showdown was about to begin!
The selection of talents for the battle of freedom went by very quickly since they had a plan. When the shadow thief and blood thief both appeared at the same time, the audience still felt that it was a fluke. “Eh, Caicai can play the blood thief?”
“The blood thief’s not bad. The other side’s Old G will definitely take the shadow thief. The blood thief’s strong blood sucking ability can resist the shadow thief’s light arcs…”
“That’s not right… the blood thief’s operations, um… It’s not that I’m looking down on my vegetable, but using the blood thief to play a support seems a bit exaggerated.”
“Oh my god, the holy priest!”
The audience woke up as soon as the holy priest showed up.
It wasn’t possible for Brother Cai to use the blood thief, it would never happen in this life! He could only use the holy priest’s bubble tune and other such skills!
The audience who had scrambled for tickets and stepped over thousands of troops just to see the soul warlock line-up were all seriously disappointed!
What about the agreed upon double thousand layers of clouds!
What about the agreed upon double stepping on raindrops!
What about the agreed upon double light arcs!
Not only did the live audience at the scene want to kick up a fuss, but the viewers in the live broadcast studio also started making trouble. “Laozi waited for two hours, and you’re showing me this?!”
“Laozi turned down a date with my girlfriend, yet as a result, you’re using double thief to mess with me?”
“Ahhhhh, I fought with my mother in order to get a cell phone, yet I’m unable to see the legendary double light arcs!”
This issue was also being discussed in the commentator booth.
This wasn’t the first time that Eurostar-star had sat here. He performed well and could answer and provide commentary without leaking anything by accident. There was no hint of the cowardly baby at all.
The other two commentators today were Brother Mouth and A-Light.
Brother Mouth asked, “Has TPT played against FTW’s soul warlock line-up?”
Eurostar smiled slightly. “Yep.”
Brother Mouth was curious. “How was it?”
Eurostar: “The grandmaster couldn’t kill me. Of course, I couldn’t deal DPS either.”
This one sentence amused many people. The fans who’d originally been clamoring to see the soul warlock calmed down as well.
These words were very interesting.
Wei Xiao wasn’t able to kill him even after the attachment, which was enough to show how timid the cowardly baby was.
Cowering so much that he couldn’t deal damage, who else would do that but him?
A-light asked, “Then, who won?”
Eurostar: “I couldn’t deal DPS. How could we win?”
His words caused another round of laughter.
