Chapter 317, the second round of the regular season

During the holiday this week after the first** cycle of the regular season, except for the brotherly relationship between Liu Chuan and Yang Jian exposed, everyone had a smile and discussing for several days after dinner, the other time, almost all professional players spent the intense training.

The second round of round-robin round will change the home and away order. For example, in the first round, the Longyin team will play the Shengtang away in Chengdu, and the second round will face the Shengtang at home in Changsha. The change of home and away means the change of the right to choose the map, scores, and large-scale changes in rankings.

The schedule is still quite close. The leader Jiang Xue has booked all the air tickets and hotels in advance according to the schedule. In the next month and a half, the Longyin team will fight with 17 other teams in turn, and their footprints will be spread all over the country.

A week later, the vacation finally ended, and the regular season of the 13th season started again.

The first opponent of the Dragon Roar Team in the second stage was Canglan Team, which had just defeated 7:2 some time ago. Cat God Li Cangyu led all members of Canglan Team to Changsha, and the Dragon Roar Team was already ready to fight.

Everyone couldn't help but start to guess: Who will Long Yin be the command this time? Or is it the command of Si Lan the last time or is it the Shenshen Chuan personally taking the battle?

It was not until the day the game started that the answer was finally revealed - it was the Four Blue Commander again!

The lineup of the Longyin team has not changed compared to the previous game. The ring match was played by Wu Zewen, Lin Tong and Xu Ce. The team battle was still a combination of Qin Ye, Li Xiang, Wu Zewen, Lan Weiran, Jiang Shaoqing and Yu Xiangyang, and the captain Liu Chuan sat in the audience with a calm expression.

Fortunately, this game is not the same as before. Since it was the final match of the first stage, all professional players also watched the live broadcast in front of the computer. Liu Chuan received a lot of curses and kept sneezing. Today, the match between Long Yin and Canglan was scheduled in the morning. The players from other teams were also preparing for the battle urgently, so they were definitely not in the mood to care about the affairs of their two teams.

Only Ye Chenxi browsed Weibo casually, and after seeing the list of appearances, he raised his lips slightly and said, "As expected, it seems that the Dragon Roar Team is just targeting different teams. In the first stage, only Luohuaci and Canglan are the commanders of my master. In other words, the changes in their lineup should not be too big when they are beaten up next time. It is still under my master's command. Liu Chuan is likely to be on the sidelines."

Lin Yufan nodded in agreement: "So, the Sichuan God thinks that Silan knows you better, so that Silan commands to defeat Huaci. What is the reason for Canglan? Silan's understanding of the Cat God is obviously not as deep as Liu Chuan? At least Liu Chuan is also a puppet genre. Wouldn't he be more confident if he commands by himself?"

Ye Chenxi smiled and said, "I don't know this."

In fact, many people can't guess this. As a puppet master of the Tang Sect, why didn't Liu Chuan direct this game with Canglan?

Only the Longyin team knows that Liu Chuan doesn't mind the "First Puppet Master" battle. He did this just to give Lan Weiran more opportunities to perform and let the four blues practice more to cope with the more stressful playoffs.

It is regrettable that Long Yin played against Canglan team at home this time, and the 3 points in the ring match did not win as smoothly as last time.

Xu Ce played very calmly, but the cat god was well-known. Last time, underestimated the opponent at home in Hangzhou, which led to Xu Ce being defeated as a victory at the last moment. As a top god, Li Cangyu could not have fallen twice in the same pit. This time, Li Cangyu's playing style was very cautious, and he was always guarding against Xu Ce's explosion. He used the rhythm kite consumption tactic to slowly turn the balance of victory towards Canglan's team, winning 3 points in the ring game for Canglan's team.

During the team battle stage, Silan still showed a strong overall view, and won two flags in the upper and lower lanes. Unfortunately, the black flag in the middle lane was taken away by Li Cangyu, and the score was finally determined to be 4:5.

This score made many fans of the Longyin Team who came to watch the game on site. Losing points at home can easily have a serious impact on the morale of the team. Fortunately, even if they lost 1 point, the players of the Longyin Team did not look depressed. Everyone's expressions were very calm, and the fans who came to watch the game on site were relieved.

Liu Chuan said in an interview in the first stage: "In the second stage, our tactics will be thoroughly studied by major teams, and the influence of the home map advantage is getting smaller and smaller, and it will only be more difficult to get points."

As expected, as Liu Chuan expected, the second stage score was very difficult. After scoring a 4:5 score with Canglan, they went to Qingdao to fight against Seven Star Grass, and they failed to win a satisfactory score.

When Liu Chuan played Qixingcao in Changsha, Liu Chuan let Si Lan play and defeat Chen Xiaobei, giving Xu Ce sufficient early advantage and successfully won 3 points in the arena. However, Qixingcao replaced Chen Xiaobei who was not mature enough in the ring stage this time, and instead sent two top aces, Ye Zhou and Su Shilun, as the opening player of the ring game. This is obviously a luxurious ring package specially prepared by Xiao Sijing for the Longyin team.

Su Shilun appeared on the stage to defend the game and finally successfully won the 3 points of the champion flag.

During the team battle stage, Emperor Xiao chose an air battle map that surprised everyone - Yunxiao City.

This is a city located in the sky, like an ethereal fairyland, with extremely beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, once you step on the air, it will be a tragedy of falling into mud.

The air combat chart does not appear much in the regular season of the professional league, because there are too many uncertain factors in the air combat chart, and they often fall down and die if they step on the air... Several newcomers from the Dragon Roar Team did not fully play their own level in the face of the difficult air combat chart. Xiao Sijing made full use of his home court advantage to win two flags in a row, and finally won a score of 7:2.

The loss in two consecutive games made the outside world unable to help but start to question: Will the Dragon Roar Team perform well in the first stage like the new teams they once did, but continue to decline in the second stage?

In fact, this is a very common phenomenon in the e-sports professional circle, and people call it the "new team curse".

New teams who have just arrived in the league often have a surprise score of new teams defeating strong teams because they are not familiar with them. However, when all teams have fought with them, they can figure out the details of the new team, and the performance of the new team in the second stage will plummet. Various omissions in teammates' cooperation and the defects in the mentality of new players will be presented to everyone as if they were magnified by a magnifying glass.

The team that can break the "new team curse" has only appeared in the tenth season so far. Under the leadership of captain Fang Zhiyan, after a period of continuous loss of points, the Snow Wolf Team directly entered the playoffs and even won the trophy in the first season of debut. Therefore, the Snow Wolf Team is also known as the strongest "dark horse" in league history.

Will the Dragon Roar Team become a dark horse team? Or will it just be a flash in the pan in one stage?

Many people are speculating that even the fans of the Dragon Roar Team are a little nervous.

After the second stage started, all the major teams tried their best and played very fiercely in the first two games of the game.

In the team's points list, Long Yin ranked fifth with a total score of 100 points at the end of the first stage. After these two games, he fell to sixth with a total score of 106 points. The Snow Wolf Team, which was originally ranked sixth, surpassed Long Yin with a total score of 107 points. It is said that Yang Jian has been as cruel as he was recently, and played two consecutive games against Tongque and Shengtang, the two strong teams, 5:4.

On the contrary, when his brother Liu Chuan failed continuously. When he was fighting Canglan, he sat in the audience and played soy sauce. When he played against Qixingcao, he lost in the air battle picture... The outside world made many doubts, and it was unreasonable to think that Long Yin lost continuously, and the captain Liu Chuan was still so leisurely.

However, Liu Chuan was very calm. He knew the current situation and had his own plans for the future of the Dragon Roar Team. His goal was very firm and he could not shake even if he had a temporary defeat.

No matter how quarrels outside, the internal atmosphere of the Dragon Roar Team is quite relaxing.

The third opponent in the second stage will soon face the second stage, and everyone gathered together for pre-match tactical analysis as usual. Liu Chuan pointed to the standings on the big screen and said: "In the first game of the second stage, we lost to Canglan 4:5; in the second game, we lost to Canglan 2:7, but don't forget that in the first stage, we once won the Seven Star Grass 5:4 and Canglan 7:2, so in general, we got the same points as the lost ones from Canglan and Seven Star Grass... Come and calculate it quickly."

"Yeah." Wu Zewen calculated carefully, "We scored a total of 11 points from Canglan and a total of 7 points from Qixingcao. Seven Star Grass took 11 points from us, and Canglan took 7 points from us... Overall, we scored a total of 18 points against these two teams, and lost 18 points."

Liu Chuan smiled and said, "So, we actually tied, are you right?"

Everyone: "..."

The others were so funny that they couldn't help themselves. Captain, your way of comforting yourself is amazing!

However, Liu Chuan made sense. In the regular season, the ranking of total points is equal to the score and loss points, which means that their ranking will not be too low, depending on the situation of other teams. Long Yin, currently ranked sixth, is still a bit dangerous to enter the playoffs, and the team will definitely have to make efforts in the later stages.

"Did you think this is the team's trough period? You are too naive. I have experienced the trough period of losing ten consecutive games. Don't worry, there is a tough bone called Luohuaci next."

Liu Chuan's words brought back everyone's thoughts, and everyone was speechless.

Yu Xiangyang couldn't help but say, "Captain, what do you mean? The trough period of losing ten consecutive games? How can you curse us if you have not started the fight?!"

"Of course I hope we can win. Just now, it's just a metaphor." Liu Chuan said with a smile, "However, this game with Luo Huaci will be very difficult. Si Lan, you have to be mentally prepared. Since your apprentice said last time that you wanted to let you realize his power, you must be prepared this time. The biggest reason why we could break Luo Huaci's strong team's death spell at home in Shanghai was that it was a sudden change of command that made Ye team too surprised that he didn't keep up with the rhythm. Now that he is prepared, you will not be as effective as the first time you command it."

Lan Weiran nodded and said, "I know, I will think about how to fight."

Chapter 318, Master and apprentice meet again

Ye Chenxi actually attached great importance to this game. He spent three days analyzing and studying the member composition of the Dragon Roar Team and the possible tactical arrangements. Commander Lan Weiran and Commander Liu Chuan's playing styles are completely different, because these two are both main output positions. If Lan Weiran plays the output, it must be that he and Qin Ye break through together in the melee battles; if Liu Chuan plays the output, they will cooperate with Wu Zewen to consume together in the long-range. What should be done to deal with different lineups? This is the focus of Ye Chenxi's research.

Time flies very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is the third round of the second stage. The Longyin team will fight Luo Huaci at home in Changsha this time.

Ye Chenxi has relatives in Changsha, so he is very familiar with this city. He still remembers that during the Chinese New Year last year, he came here to pay New Year's greetings. He happened to recognize Lan Weiran's vest sky in an online game. He was very excited when he learned that his master was back, so he drove to pick Lan Weiran up for a cup of coffee.

A year passed in a blink of an eye, and the coffee shop was still in his familiar position, and the master was still in the Dragon Roar Team, and they were about to meet again in Changsha.

Ye Chenxi believes that in this game, he will definitely prove his true level.

On the night before the competition, Ye Chenxi arrived at the hotel and sent a text message to Lan Weiran: "Master, I'm here."

Lan Weiran replied: "Well, don't worry, I will wait for the master to abuse you tomorrow."

Ye Chenxi couldn't help but smile and replied: "Okay, I'm very much looking forward to how you will command tomorrow."

Lan Weiran replied: "Don't talk in advance, I will not command tomorrow."

Ye Chenxi smiled: "Is that true?"

Lan Weiran said seriously: "Tomorrow will be commander Liu Chuan."

Ye Chenxi naturally didn't believe it.

During the second day of the game, the players of the Longyin team were not replaced during the ring match. Wu Zewen, Lin Tong and Xu Ce faced Hu Bin, Li Jun and Ye Chenxi who were on the side of Luo Hua Ci.

Unlike Ye Chenxi's first appearance in the last game to complete the achievement of one and two, this away game, Long Yin had the advantage of selecting pictures, so Ye Chenxi chose a more secure way - the last appearance to put the team in the team.

Luo Huaci was the first to send out a young player Hu Bin, because the boy was calm and played the remote Yuxiao Xiaoyao. He would not suffer too much when playing the remote Wu Zewen with the Dragon Roar Team.

What surprised Ye Chenxi was that Long Yin chose a map with obvious terrain advantages during the ring stage at home, which was not a map with swamps or mazes, but a plain map with a wide field of view. It was obviously necessary to remove the influence of map factors and directly hit the front.

Ye Chenxi couldn't help but remember what Liu Chuan once said in an interview: "In the second stage, we will try to fight more frontals, because the newcomers in our team need more opportunities to hone..."

This arrangement is obviously to train newcomers.

Wu Zewen's performance in the arena is now becoming more and more like a first-line player. Whether it is the advantage map, the disadvantage map or the plain map with the least impact, he can always calmly face the enemy and make changes in his playing style according to different environments. This is quite rare.

Hu Bin, who is also a newcomer, obviously lacked some heat than Wu Zewen, and soon fell under Wu Zewen's poisonous snake bite.

Luohuaci sent out the second player Li Jun. This folding fan Xiaoyao player with "gentleman fan" is also the best in this genre. At least before Lan Weiran returned, the top three on the popularity list of Xiaoyao sect were won by Ye Chenxi, Lin Yufan and Li Jun of Luohuaci's team.

Lan Weiran also had a high evaluation of Li Jun. This player has a strong ability to seize the opportunity, and his attack and explosive power are excellent. Xiaoyao is a gentle sect, but Li Jun's folding fan style is more violent. Seeing him waving his fan and smashing people in the face, it feels like... the Beggars' Sect is in a mess with sticks.

Li Jun used 20% of his blood to send Wu Zewen off the field, facing Long Yin's second player Lin Tong.

In the face-to-face battle between the two close combat, Li Jun successfully chased his health with many years of experience, so that when Lin Tong killed him, he was already red in blood and was taken away by Ye Chenxi, the third player who appeared.

Xu Ce, the defending general of the Longyin Team, appeared and faced Ye Chenxi, who was the last to defeat the team.

There was thunderous applause at the scene, and the supporters of the Dragon Roar Team were cheering for the vampire, but Xu Ce looked calm. He knew that Ye Chenxi, the captain, was very difficult to deal with, so he did not dare to be careless at all.

The duel was quite fierce. Ye Chenxi discovered that Xu Ce seemed to have made progress again during this period. He originally thought that it would not be too difficult to solve Xu Ce, but unexpectedly, killing this Cema Jianghu would have ruined his skills. He was disrupted by Xu Ce's explosion attack several times. Fortunately, Ye Chenxi successfully stabilized the scene and finally took away Xu Ce's remaining blood with a long-distance flute sound attack with the long wind blowing snow.

The score on the big screen became 3:0, and Luo Huaci took the lead in winning 3 points in the ring match.

The audience held their breath nervously - this scene made everyone think of when Long Yin beat Luo Huaci in Shanghai, Luo Huaci was the first to win 3 points in the ring match. However, Si Lan immediately gave his apprentice a head-on blow and grabbed three flags in a row. He directly shaved Luo Huaci's head in the team battle. The final score was 6:3.

At that time, Long Yin was able to win three flags even when he was away with the fallen flowers and resignation. Today, will history repeat itself and come again 6:3?

In the soundproof room, the members of the Longyin Team were gathering together to chat. Ye Chenxi picked up the coffee and took a few sips of it, gathered several teammates of Luohuaci, and said calmly: "If Longyin is commanded by Silan, he will definitely cooperate with Qin Ye and team up to kill me or Yu Fan in seconds. Therefore, you must pay attention to the front row, prevent them from breaking through, protect the back row, and let me and Yu Fan control the rhythm."

"If the Long Yin side was commanded by Liu Chuan, then the Four Lans would not be on the way. Liu Chuan and Wu Zewen cooperated with each other to consume the blood of the front-row players from a long range, and then Qin Ye picked up the fewer blood and killed directly. When encountering this situation, I will find a way to interfere with Liu Chuan. You should give priority to the fire Qin Ye and kill Qin Ye as quickly as possible... Be careful of the academic master of the Long Yin team, especially his spider pulls people to control it."

Everyone nodded immediately: "I understand!"

Ye Chenxi's analysis is very accurate. Due to the special nature of the Luohua Ci Xiaoyao auxiliary teleportation array, Lan Weiran could not choose Xiaoyao auxiliary in team battles. They had to go to Jiang Shaoqing to deal with Lin Yufan. Lan Weiran could only play output, so the changes in Long Yin's formation are easier to reason.

Soon, the team battle began, and the lineup list of both sides was played out on the big screen at the same time.

The fallen flower quote is the six-person lineup of Li Jun (the gentleman's fan), Song Cheng (the Song Dynasty), Jiang Xiaotian (everyday upward), Ye Chenxi (the Chenxi), Lin Yufan (the wings of the wind), and Liu Songlin (the ten thousand-year-old pine). Long Yin is the six-person lineup of Qin Ye (the night color), Li Xiang (the ideal master), Wu Zewen (the mist swamp), Lan Weiran (blue blue), Jiang Shaoqing (the Taoist Master Qingfeng), and Yu Xiangyang (the fish swim in the water).

Compared with the previous game, the six-player combination of the Longyin team did not change, and careful audiences could find that the third position of Luohuaci was changed from Hu Bin to Jiang Xiaotian.

These two are also Xiaoyao players, but Hu Bin is a young rookie that Ye Chenxi focuses on training. Jiang Xiaotian has been with the team for several seasons and is a relatively stable veteran. Moreover, Hu Bin is a long-range Yuxiao system, and Jiang Xiaotian is a melee folding fan system. This is the biggest difference.

There are many players in the Luohuaci team, just a change of position. Lan Weiran knew that Ye Chenxi was indeed prepared today!
To be continued...
