In FPX's team voiceover, Doinb's heart sank suddenly.
The gray head of Nuguri who died in battle hit his heart like a heavy hammer.
He instantly understood Su Mo's intention. It was not a simple single kill at all, but a death sentence that was enough to declare the end of the game!
"Go back! Stop fighting! Go back and guard the house!" Doinb shouted, "Quick! He's going to attack!"
They failed to start the group cleanly at the beginning. If they continue to fight now, the crystals at home will be demolished by Sword Queen.
However, it is easier said than done to leave?
Meiko became excited after hearing Su Mo's instructions in the team voice. He shouted: "Brothers, start sticking! Don't even think about leaving!"
At this time, FPX's formation had been smashed to pieces by Meiko's Bull Head and Scout's Victor.
Jungle Tian's Olaf's ultimate move just ended and broke the road.
However, Meiko's bull head was like a moving copper wall, stuck between him and the exit of the dragon pit.
"Want to leave? Ask me, old cow!"
Meiko used the W skill [Savage Crash] to accurately push Olaf, who had just opened his legs, back into the depths of the dragon's pit, and hit Jiejie's Foego in the face.
Jiejie was not polite. A set of skills, combined with Viper's moonlight cannon, instantly reduced Olaf, who was already in poor condition, to the lowest level of health.
"Leave me alone! You go!" Tian let out a desperate roar in his voice. He knew that he could not leave and could only use his own life to buy the final time for his teammates to return to the city.
On the other side, FPX's back row duo Lwx and Crisp were also in dire straits.
Scout's Victor is like a position mage, and his skills are always accurately released on the path they must take to retreat.
Lwx and Crisp had to make a big circle if they wanted to return to the city, but this undoubtedly gave the rest of EDG the opportunity to pursue them.
"I flashed away!" Lwx handed over the flash, passed through the wall of the dragon pit, and started chanting back to the city the moment he landed. On the screen, the blue light bar began to count down, which was the last hope of the FPX team.
But Jiejie's Foego has successfully picked up the soul after killing Olaf and turned into the violent Viking war god.
He spotted Lwx's position, and without thinking, he followed up with a flash and hit Lwx with an axe, accurately interrupting Lwx's return to the city!
"It's broken! Jiejie interrupted Lwx's return to the city!" Miller spoke quickly, "EDG's execution is terrible! Their goal is very clear, which is to keep all four FPX people here at all costs!"
At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield, the one-man war has entered a white-hot stage.
The commentary and directing shots are very sensible and cut into two split screens, one large and one small.
The big screen shows the intense 4v4 team battle at the front, while the small screen in the upper right corner focuses on the lonely figure pushing the tower.
After killing Nuguri, Su Mo's Sword Girl didn't even look at the team battle in the distance. All he could see was the enemy's lonely top highland crystal.
A large wave of super troops that had just emerged from their own high ground became his most solid backing.
Once, twice, three times...
The highland defense tower that was indestructible in the middle of the game was as fragile as a sandcastle in front of a swordswoman whose development transcended the timeline.
In just three seconds, the health bar of the defense tower was emptied and it collapsed!
"The Highland Tower has fallen!" Baby's voice was trembling, "Now it's the crystal! The speed is too fast! The FPX people didn't even have time to go back!"
Su Mo's target turned to the Highland Crystal, which had a thicker blood volume.
He did not pause at all, like the most efficient demolition worker, the long sword in his hand turned into a deadly phantom.
In the FPX team's voiceover, Doinb listened to the harsh sound of his own crystal being attacked, feeling anxious.
He knew that the frontal battlefield had been defeated, and he could only place his last hope on himself.
He controlled Galio and used an E skill [Righteous Punch] to distance himself. He wanted to get home as quickly as possible to stop the demon!
However, Scout's Victor is like his shadow.
Flash directly over and keep him.
"Scout! It's Scout again! His skill release is so critical! He is like a calm commander, always able to make the most correct judgment at the most critical moment. Doinb can't go back!"
With Doinb's failure to return to the city, FPX's frontal battlefield completely collapsed.
Lwx was stuck to Jiejie and Viper, and Crisp's Titan was unable to stand alone and was eventually killed.
Doinb was the only one left, surrounded by four EDG players, and finally fell into the dragon pit in despair.
【ACE!】
The prompt for group destruction sounded!
At this time, on the small screen in the upper right corner, Su Mo had clicked on the Highland Crystal.
Miller's voice was hoarse: "Brother Mo Zi didn't stop! He's still pushing! He wants to end this game alone!"
The camera switched back to the main screen.
Su Mo's Sword Girl led the soldiers towards the two last incisor towers.
FPX players can only look at their gray screens helplessly, waiting for the long countdown to resurrection.
Their faces were full of helplessness and unwillingness.
They tried all their tactics and wisdom, but they still couldn't stop this unreasonable man.
An incisor tower fell.
Another incisor tower fell.
Su Mo's Sword Girl walked to the base crystal that symbolized victory.
He paused for half a second, seemingly admiring the last scenery.
Then, he raised the sword in his hand.
One, two, three...
Every attack is like a death knell ringing, announcing the death of FPX.
In the end, with a crisp and loud explosion, FPX’s base crystal turned into fragments all over the sky.
At the center of the screen, the two bright red letters representing victory slowly appeared.
【VICTORY】
The whole venue, after a brief period of silence, erupted in cheers like a landslide and tsunami!
"Win! EDG wins!" Miller shouted, "A thrilling duel! A one-man steal that goes down in history! Mo used the most incredible and unreasonable way to tell the world - as long as he is still playing, he will be the only focus!"
"The current score between the two sides is 1:1, and the next round is a life-and-death game."
At the EDG battle seat, Jiejie and others jumped up excitedly, rushed towards the man who was still sitting calmly on the chair, and surrounded him.
“Brother Mozi is awesome!!!”
On the other side of the stage, the FPX battle seat was completely silent.
Doinb took off his headphones, leaned back on the chair weakly, and stared at the ceiling absentmindedly.
He lost, and he was convinced of his defeat.
This is not a tactical failure, nor is it an operational error.
This is a pure, higher-dimensional crushing.
He felt that sometimes the power of one person can really surpass the wisdom of the entire team.
After a while, the players from both sides returned to the lounge.
「Bang!」
The moment the door was closed, assistant Crisp could no longer suppress his emotions and punched the wall of the lounge with a muffled sound.
The atmosphere in the entire lounge was as depressing as solid lead.
No one spoke, and there was a strong sense of unwillingness and frustration in the air.
Doinb walked to the water dispenser without saying a word, took a full glass of ice water, and drank it in one breath. The cold liquid seemed unable to extinguish the fire in his heart.
Nuguri sat quietly in his seat, with his hands crossed and his head lowered. No one knew what he was thinking.
FPX's head coach "War Horse" did not immediately reprimand or comfort.
He just looked at the players quietly, allowing them time to digest the shock of the defeat.
A few minutes later, when the team members' emotions calmed down a little, War Horse took the tactical board and walked to the center of the lounge.
"I know that everyone is feeling very uncomfortable right now." His voice was steady and powerful, instantly attracting everyone's attention. "We lost, and we lost in a way that we are least good at and the most frustrating. This proves one thing."
He paused and glanced at the faces of each team member.
"In front of this point, personal ability is ineffective, because you can't beat him."
This sentence is like a sharp knife. Although it is cruel, it accurately cuts through the core of the problem.
Doinb raised his head, with bloodshot eyes: "My, my roaming didn't play any role. He didn't give us a chance to link up in the middle and jungle at all."
Nuguri also spoke slowly, with a hoarse voice: "No, it's my problem. I haven't played in the lane, and I made him grow too comfortable, so I gave him the capital to lead alone. This person...his control of distance and anticipation of skills There are no flaws in the judgment or even the sense of jungle movements. "It's like it's open!"
"Now is not the time to hold anyone accountable." War Horse interrupted them, "We don't have time to regret. We only have ten minutes to figure out how to play the third game."
He picked up the pen and drew a circle heavily on the tactical board, enclosing the ID "Mo".
"Conventional tactics no longer work. We can't restrict him online, let alone kill him through military training. After all, their junglers are always trying to protect him. In this case..." War Horse's eyes became sharp, "Then let's change our thinking - avoid his sharp edge and attack him to save him!"
He looked at Nuguri and his tone became extremely solemn: "Niu Bao, in the next game, I need you to completely sacrifice yourself. I will no longer choose heroes like Kennen and Qinggang Shadow that require development and operation. I will choose a pure tank for you, Ornn, or It's a stone man. Use everything you have to resist the pressure. You can take as many soldiers as you can. It doesn't matter if you can't take him. As long as you don't die and can drag him on the road, you will win! "
These words mean that FPX will completely abandon their proud top offensive system.
Then, War Horse turned his attention to Doinb and Tian: "You two, from now on, completely forget about the top lane. In your world, there are only the middle lane and the bottom lane. Lwx is our only hope in this round. We must give all resources, all ganks, and all tactical tilts to the bottom lane! We must use the most extreme "four packs of two" to raise a monster-level ADC twenty minutes ago!"
"Then," War Horse's pen tip was heavily placed on the lower half of the map, "Use Lwx's equipment advantage to force them to fight the small-scale team battle that we are best at. No matter how strong Mo's single leader is, he only has one person. As long as we can win the team battle on the front battlefield and win the big dragon or dragon soul before he demolishes our home, we have a chance!"
This is a decision like a strong man breaking his wrist.
Abandon the style of play that you are good at and use a method that is almost gambling to gain a chance of survival.
After listening to the coach’s tactical arrangements, the eyes of the FPX players regained their gleam.
The fierceness and determination stemming from the desperate situation appeared on everyone's face.
"No problem!" Nuguri was the first to express his opinion, his eyes were firm, "As long as I can win, you can play whatever you want."
"Done!" Doinb also nodded vigorously, "Being a dog in the bottom lane, I'm the best at it!"
"Then it's decided." Zhan Ma made the final conclusion. He walked among the players and folded his palms together. "Forget the failure of the last game. From now on, our summer split has just begun. Let them see what kind of team we, FPX, are!"
Perhaps completely opposite to the solemnity at FPX, the EDG lounge was filled with a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.
"Brother Mozi, you were so handsome when you demolished the family by yourself at the end!" Meiko said with a smile, "I was so dumbfounded on the front battlefield, thinking when our top laner would come over, but when I looked at the mini map, I saw, good guy, you were killed by Camille with a few blows from the top of the tower..."
Brother Holy Spear handed over a bottle of water with a look of admiration: "Brother Mozi, teach me how your Sword Queen's W can block perfectly every time? I feel like Nuguri is going to be psychologically affected."
Su Mo took the water, took a sip, and leaned lazily on the sofa: "Nothing, just press W again when he raises his hand. Practice more."
This understatement made the corners of Brother Holy Gun's mouth twitch.
This is easy to say, but impossible to do.
Abu and the factory director also had smiles on their faces, but they were not dazzled by the victory.
"The game was good, especially the decision-making in the final steal, which was very decisive." Abramovich first affirmed the performance of the players, and then changed the subject, "But, in the next game, they will definitely change their tactics." Mix up the lanes, and then Doinb and Tian will treat the bottom lane as their home and carry out endless attacks."
He looked at the bottom lane duo of Viper and Meiko: "You will be under a lot of pressure in the next game."
Viper said confidently through the translator: "It doesn't matter, we can handle it."
Meiko also pushed up her glasses and said calmly: "As long as Jiejie can counter-crouch in time, we can operate."
"Very good." Abu nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his attention to the leisurely Su Mo, "So, Brother Mo, what do you want to play in the final round?"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Su Mo.
Su Mo yawned, as if he was not interested in this topic: "Whatever. Just take your pick, as long as you can fight."
This answer was within everyone's expectations.
Abu and the factory director looked at each other and already had the answer in their hearts.
“Since they are going to conquer the second half, we will use their tricks.” The corners of Abu’s lips curved with a hint of confidence, “We will choose a hero with stronger online suppression for Brother Mozi, so that he can have more fun on the top lane alone. Same thing. At this time, we choose a combination with strong defensive counterattack ability. Jiejie, your focus should also be on the lower half. If they want to play four packs of one, we will accompany them to the end! ”
The goal is clear," the factory director used his trademark serious tone to make the final tactical summary, "The upper half is Brother Mo's hunting ground alone. The lower half is our meat grinder. Let them understand that no matter where they choose the battlefield, Wherever we are, we will stay with you till the end!”
“Come on!”
“Come on!”
The bell rang to indicate the end of the intermission.
The players from the two teams, with completely different tactical arrangements and mental states, rearranged their equipment and uniforms, held their heads high, and once again walked towards the brightly lit and highly anticipated stage.
The final battle is about to begin!
