For the finals of the Asian Championship and World Sequence, each of them had a format of BO7. There have been seven video games with 4 victories. Both sides had three residence probabilities. If there was a 3:3 draw, the ultimate recreation can be a random map and mode.

The BO7 schedule was longer than the group stage and knockout stage. As soon as the 2 sides have been in a stalemate, they have been more likely to play seven video games. This meant the match would take greater than three hours.

Due to this fact, the finals not solely examined the operational energy and tactical consciousness of the gamers, but in addition examined the bodily energy and psychological high quality of the gamers.

In the event that they performed a number of video games in a row, everybody would get drained.

Whether or not or not they may preserve a excessive working velocity and response velocity in a fatigued state might need a deadly affect on the result of the species.

The gamers on each side shortly adjusted their tools shortly.

On the recreation venue, the Japanese commentator shortly launched the gamers from each side, adopted by the phrases, “Earlier than the match, 85% of the viewers guessed that the Korean crew would win and solely 15% of the viewers is supporting the Chinese language crew!”

“It’s as a result of the Korean crew has gained the final 5 Asian championships. In Asia, South Korea’s e-sports energy is unmatched! The Chinese language crew carried out nicely within the first few matches however the odds of profitable in opposition to South Korea aren’t nice.”

“We are able to see that the beginning lineup of the Korean crew in the present day are the 2 scouts Sage and In a position, the sniper Easy, the charger Lofty and the assaulter Actual. In different phrases, they’ve deserted the medic and set out a pure output violent lineup of twin scouts plus a charger, assaulter and sniper!”

“Sure, Sage is the captain of this Asian Championship crew and is the most effective newcomer of the Korean A-grade League. The sniper Easy is the winner of the Most Potential Rookie Award. The private energy of those two is far greater than Snow And Fred of China! The lineup of twin scouts will even restrain the Chinese language crew’s lineup of twin snipers.”

“So the profitable charge of the Chinese language crew is actually small!”

Backstage, Anna understood Japanese and couldn’t assist frowning. “Are they wanting ahead to China dropping? Are the official commentators so biased?”

Qi Heng sneered. “In fact, Japan’s commentators don’t like us. If we hadn’t gained 2:0 in opposition to Japan within the group stage, they may’ve nonetheless taken the runner-up this yr. However… this one is actually tough to battle. It is determined by how Ah Yu arranges it.”

He solely knew that Jiang Shaoyu had led the gamers to apply all afternoon.

Qi Heng didn’t know precisely what they practiced. He might solely hope that Jiang Shaoyu would have particular tactical preparations.

The match began shortly. The system randomly drew heaps and South Korea drew the primary hand.

The primary was South Korea’s residence match.

The coach of the Korean crew didn’t hesitate to submit the mode: Countless Bloody Battle.

They have been going to play a quick match.

Countless Bloody Battle mode was the only and roughest recreation mode. They might win by destroying their opponents. There was no want to fret over an IQ match between the police and bandits, nor was there a necessity to vary resurrection factors and calculate the quantity of ammunition like in Excessive Duel mode. This was additionally the favourite mode of on-line recreation gamers. There was no have to assume an excessive amount of. They only wanted to battle.

The Japanese commentator was curious. “What map will Coach Jiang ban?”

“If the Korean crew makes use of the twin scout system, Coach Jiang ought to ban the hidden assassination maps which are extra favorable for scouts, proper?”

The 2 home commentators have been additionally fastidiously analyzing it. “There’s a excessive chance that he’ll ban Darkish Swamp and Crystal Cave. 80% of the realm of Darkish Swamp is water they usually can lurk and assassinate underwater. That is the favourite map of scouts.”

“Sure, Crystal Cave can also be an excellent map for scouts. There are a lot of stalactite obstacles. Versatile scouts can transfer round and sneak up from behind. Snipers will even be obstructed by obstacles and discover it tough to intention.”

“I feel the third ban place needs to be given to Stonehenge? Additionally it is a multi-obstacle map however on this map, snipers can climb up on stones to arrange weapons. A twin sniper lineup can even battle on it.”

“Let’s see how Coach Jiang arranges it.”

The home viewers stared nervously on the large display screen. The Japanese viewers members additionally raised their heads, wanting ahead to how the top coach of the Chinese language nationwide crew would do the BP.

Within the subsequent second, the viewers on the scene and the viewers in entrance of the display screen dropped their jaws in shock.

Three consecutive crimson crosses lined the clean maps.

[The Chinese team releases the BAN.]

Jiang Shaoyu’s motion made the eyes of the Korean crew’s coach widen. “Is there no mistake? Releasing the ban? What braveness does he must launch the ban in entrance of our Korean crew?”

The so-called ‘releasing the ban’ meant that not a single map was prohibited within the BP stage.

It was to let the opponent select arbitrarily.

It normally solely occurred in apply matches throughout the crew or when two groups performed a pleasant match. They might agree upfront to not ban a map and the 2 sides would launch the ban collectively.

Nevertheless, in a world competitors, there had by no means been a scenario of releasing the ban!

Jiang Shaoyu’s ‘precedent-breaking’ launch of the ban within the finals not solely shocked the viewers on the venue and within the reside stream room, however the coaches of the Korean crew have been additionally shocked for a very long time.

The on-site director instantly targeted the digicam on Jiang Shaoyu.

The pinnacle coach of the Chinese language nationwide crew who brought on the turmoil had a really calm expression presently. The gamers of the Chinese language nationwide crew additionally didn’t have shocked expressions on their faces. Clearly, this has been mentioned by them a very long time in the past.

The Japanese commentators bought caught for some time earlier than reacting and saying excitedly, “The Chinese language crew launched the ban. In different phrases, the South Korean crew can get the map they wish to take probably the most!”

“Does Coach Jiang assume he can battle it doesn’t matter what map South Korea takes? That is overconfidence, proper? No, it’s only a dream!”

The 2 home commentators have been additionally silent presently. The reside stream room was stuffed with dense barrages.

[What is he thinking? It is the finals!]

[South Korea has two scouts but he didn’t ban the map for scouts? Don’t tell me that it is a mistake?]

[Wing’s expression is very calm. It shouldn’t be an operation error.]

[I don’t understand. Why not ban any maps?]

[Could it be that he became arrogant after winning the group stage smoothly?]

Releasing the ban. It was both an absolute confidence that ‘I can play any map you select’ or… taking it as a apply match?

The 2 commentators shortly realized and tried to clean issues over. “Possibly God Wing thinks this can be a uncommon alternative to battle in opposition to the Korean crew and launched the map for the Korean crew to decide on at will to play a apply match with them?”

“On this case, he has fully given up hope of profitable the championship, proper? He’s taking this as coaching.”

“…I actually can’t guess Coach Jiang’s considering! Ahem, let’s watch the sport.”

The South Korean crew lastly reacted and Coach Han couldn’t assist smiling. “I perceive. He thinks he can’t beat us even when he bans the maps, so it’s higher to allow us to select and take it as a apply match with the Korean crew. They need to be able to take the runner-up.”

“It is smart,” the captain Jeong Jiwoo mentioned with a smile. “In any case, they’ll win the runner-up and it’s nonetheless their greatest end in historical past. Immediately, they launched the map to battle us simply to see the energy hole with South Korea.”

Presently, Jiang Shaoyu regarded very calm within the soundproof room.

The coach of the Korean crew guessed solely half proper.

Jiang Shaoyu launched the map and it was certainly to play apply video games with South Korea on the most effective maps for scouts. It was additionally to apply the power of the nationwide crew members to withstand strain.

In the event that they didn’t dare battle South Korea head-on within the Asian Championship and as an alternative prevented them, banning the map that the opposite aspect was good at… what concerning the World Sequence after that?

What in the event that they bought a tiebreaker in opposition to South Korea sooner or later and a map advantageous to scouts occurred to be randomly chosen?

In the event that they didn’t dare to battle then they wouldn’t be capable to battle when the time got here!

The Asian Championship was a uncommon alternative to play in opposition to the Korean double scout lineup. Then think about the primary recreation a apply recreation.

Nevertheless, Jiang Shaoyu’s launch of the ban didn’t imply he had given up hope of profitable the championship. For BO7 matches, the house maps couldn’t be reused.

This was associated to his planning for the following few rounds. In fact, netizens couldn’t see it in any respect. Other than the diehard followers of God Wing who nonetheless believed in him, most passersby felt—

Coach Jiang didn’t wish to win the championship. He simply needed to win the runner-up, so he let go and was enjoying a apply match with the Korean crew!

Coach Han shortly submitted the sport map: Darkish Swamp.

Positive sufficient, he selected the water battle assassination map that was very favorable to scouts.

Grenades couldn’t be used on a water battle map. Solely smoke bombs may very well be used. Each groups shortly chosen their weapons and waited for the map to load.

The refresh factors on each side of the map have been the massive lotus leaves by the aspect of the swamp. In the event that they needed to vary areas, they may solely swim over.

Darkish Swamp was dimly lit. 80% of the map was underwater and the remaining 20% was composed of lotus leaves they may stand on. The lotus leaves within the swamp pool have been densely distributed. Each dozen meters or so, they may discover lotus leaves of various sizes to cover or stand on. Due to this fact, this map was also called the ‘greatest assassination map.’

Within the murderous swamp, it wasn’t identified the place the opponent would come out of to be able to stab them.

In fact, a sniper might stand on a lotus leaf and shoot into the water. Nevertheless, after standing on a lotus leaf, they’d change into a reside goal that may very well be seen by all opponents!

The best way that snipers normally performed within the swamp was to help teammates utilizing long-range firepower suppression. They might use the brief time when their our bodies floated to the floor to open the scope, intention, discover somebody and shoot.

For snipers, this map was actually tough to play.

It was a lot more durable than Crystal Cave!

The map loaded and the sport formally started.

The 5 members of the Chinese language crew have been refreshed on a big lotus leaf within the southeast nook and the Korean crew was within the northwest nook. They have been separated by the entire pond. The South Korean crew reacted shortly and instantly jumped into the swamp.

On the Chinese language crew’s aspect, Pei Feng and Xiao Gui scattered and jumped into the swamp.

Hua Ran and Shu Chen have been in a bunch whereas Qin Xueyao scouted alone.

The gamers of the South Korean crew have been excellent at water battle maps. They dived into the water collectively. Because the Darkish Swamp map was very darkish and there have been many lotus leaves within the swamp, it was tough to lock onto their positions.

A second later, a transparent gunshot rang out from the appropriate.

Bang!

The sniper of the Korean crew had seized the chance to cover underneath a lotus leaf. His barrel protruded from a spot within the lotus leaf and he killed Hua Ran with a headshot!

Hua Ran was shocked in his coronary heart and a layer of chilly sweat appeared on his palms.

After lurking underwater for one minute, they have to take a breath or they’d suffocate. He noticed that his respiration meter was virtually gone and took a breath, however he was truly shot by the Korean sniper?

The South Korean crew’s water fight skill was certainly the most effective on the planet. The sniper on the alternative aspect had been mendacity in ambush underneath the lotus leaf for a very long time!

For the primary time, Hua Ran realized the hole between himself and a world-class participant. He took a deep breath and was about to name for Brother Chen when he noticed Shu Chen swimming shortly to avoid wasting him.

After Pei Feng heard the gunshot, he instantly shot on the enemy sniper. The bullet pierced via the lotus leaf and killed the opponent in seconds! This exact marksmanship didn’t lose to the sniper of the Korean crew.

Nevertheless, Pei Feng additionally uncovered his place when he fired. The viewers from a god’s perspective might see that the 2 scouts of the Korean crew have been lurking underwater.

Pei Feng sensed this instantly and instantly fought again. Nevertheless, his underwater imaginative and prescient was restricted and the bullets have been blocked. He solely wounded Ahn Taehyeong (In a position) on the alternative aspect, however he was assassinated by the opposite scout Jeong Jiwoo (Sage) from the again!

Hua Ran and Shu Chen teamed as much as go over however the two scouts of the Korean crew shortly dispersed. The 2 of them dived into the ocean like fish, swimming flexibly and harvesting heads shortly. They adopted up with one other sneak assault and killed Xiao Gui.

Within the first spherical, the Chinese language crew exchanged 5 heads for 3 and the South Korean crew gained.

Within the second spherical, Pei Feng considered a means. He and Xiao Gui jumped into the water originally, one to the left and the opposite to the appropriate. The gap was significantly far they usually hid underneath the lotus leaves of the pond respectively. They let their teammates act as bait.

Shu Chen and Hua Ran teamed as much as remedy the sniper of the Korean crew. Qin Xueyao risked hazard to seek out the placement of a scout of South Korea. She sacrificed herself to reveal the enemy scout and Pei Feng instantly shot and killed Jeong Jiwoo.

Subsequent, Pei Feng and Gui Siyang fought 2V3. The 2 of them hid underneath the lotus leaves and cooperated in a guerrilla battle. After combating onerous for 5 minutes, they lastly killed all the Korean crew and gained again a spherical.

However originally of the third spherical, the South Korean crew didn’t give them an opportunity to cooperate with long-range firepower. The 2 scouts didn’t take note of Hua Ran and Xueyao in any respect. They looked for Pei Feng underwater and killed Pei Feng 2V1. Pei Feng actually acquired VIP therapy.

The Chinese language crew’s lineup was damaged and it was inconceivable to kind a cooperation.

Within the fifteenth minute of the match, the Chinese language crew misplaced the primary recreation 1:3.

The Japanese commentator on the scene mentioned excitedly, “Congratulations to the Korean crew for taking the lead in profitable the Darkish Swamp map and getting one level.”

“Their water battle continues to be as robust as ever!”

The South Korean crew’s water battle wasn’t simply robust in Asia but in addition the strongest on the planet. This was the system they have been greatest at.

Within the home reside stream room, folks began to query Jiang Shaoyu.

[It is the consequences of not banning Dark Swamp!]

[Is Coach Jiang arrogant? He faced South Korea but actually released the ban.]

[Isn’t it good if he just banned Dark Swamp? Does he have to lose once before being happy?]

[He knows there are tigers on the mountain but insists on going there anyway. Coach Jiang is really headstrong!]

Jiang Shaoyu walked into the soundproof room and occurred to satisfy Pei Feng’s gaze wanting again. Pei Feng was in an advanced temper. He knew that his grasp’s strategy would positively trigger a whole lot of controversy. Presently, there should be many keyboard warriors scolding Coach Jiang.

Nevertheless, Jiang Shaoyu didn’t care concerning the outdoors world’s analysis of him.

His aim was clear.

He misplaced the Darkish Swamp battle with South Korea. As soon as he encountered such a water battle map sooner or later, he would be capable to provide you with a greater solution to take care of it. This was the significance of expertise.

The present Chinese language crew was nonetheless too immature to keep away from the opponent’s robust maps on a regular basis. It was solely by going through difficulties that they may see the hole between them and a powerful enemy.

Jiang Shaoyu checked out Pei Feng and mentioned in a low voice, “It’s okay. Battle onerous within the second recreation.”

Pei Feng nodded. “I perceive.”
